	She's a rescue.
	Adam Curry.
	John C. DeVora.
	It's Sunday, June 5th, 2022.
	This is your award-winning Gimbal Nation media assassination episode 1457.
	This is no agenda.
	Exposing the stupid and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas hill country here in FEMA region number 6 in the morning everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley where it's raining, I'm John C. DeVoreye.
	Well, isn't this interesting?
	I needed to bring this up to you at the top of the show.
	What?
	I got a very angry note from the RSA.
	The RSA?
	The Republic of South Africa?
	Really?
	You don't know what RSA stands for?
	Yeah, Republic of South Africa.
	No, no.
	Rain Stick Authority.
	Oh, the Rain Stick Authority.
	We never hear from them.
	Yeah, well, what they heard is we were supposed to do one shake, one flip of the rain stick so we wouldn't have too much off the back end of the stick, and you did like a jiggle at the end.
	You're supposed to do a jiggle.
	No, there's no jiggle.
	It's flip, flip.
	It's one flip.
	There's no jiggle.
	There's jiggle.
	You gotta get those little beads at the top.
	Well, the RSA disagrees, and Dallas, Dallas got some shit.
	They deserve it.
	Oh, man.
	Well, of course, Texans are used to something, so we're not complaining too much.
	But how's, uh, so you have rain there, so it worked once again.
	Yeah, it started raining last night and it kept going.
	It was raining this morning.
	It's letting up now.
	Beautiful.
	Beautiful.
	Well, that's what we needed, right?
	So it worked once again.
	Yeah, it seems to work every time.
	People don't believe this, but the rain stick, these are official rain sticks.
	Well, it's not our, it's not, we didn't make these things up.
	No, shit.
	And they've been used for millennial.
	Mm-hmm.
	Millennia.
	No, I meant by millennials.
	Oh, okay.
	I'm sorry, I misunderstood.
	Yeah, Dame Sherry Osborne, wasn't it?
	Sherry Osborne, I think, made those in Utah.
	Very, very sacred.
	You picked them up, yeah.
	Sacred stuff, yeah.
	Sacred stuff up there.
	I saw you hobnobbing this weekend with the elites.
	Oh yeah, I went to dinner with Brunetti and Alex.
	Yeah.
	And I have to say a couple of things about this guy.
	This is our uber super executive producer, Dana Brunetti.
	Go look him up on IMDb.
	Hotshot.
	Hotshot.
	So, you know, everyone's like, oh, this is Brunetti, and they're all jacked up.
	This place is kind of a high-end restaurant.
	I know, I saw the pictures.
	Brunetti has better stories than I can conjure up.
	Right.
	He has a couple, he has toppers and he topped the whole night off with one.
	I can't tell you what it is because it's too good and you should always ask him how did this trip to Russia go and then he'll give you the story.
	That's all I can reveal of this story.
	Of course, Alex is rolling her eyes, and he says, well, I've told this story a couple times before.
	Yeah, she says five times I've heard it.
	But she is Russian.
	Isn't she ex-Russian?
	No, she's a half Japanese, half Iranian.
	I think a name like Alex, you just got to be a Russian.
	Alexandra.
	Yeah, exactly.
	It's Alexandra.
	And, uh, yeah, it was a good dinner.
	Except for the one dessert was a disappointment.
	But other than that... That was hilarious.
	Dana sent me pictures.
	He sent a really... Yeah, he says, I'm gonna send these pictures to Adam.
	He sent a really... It's actually a very nice picture.
	Very typical JCD pose.
	You're sitting there completely in your own thought, hunched over, looking at the wine menu.
	And you know, I can see this thought bubbles exploding, you're reading everything, looking at the years.
	So they had a wine list that was on a tablet, on like a tablet.
	Maybe there was a little bit of disgust that I saw there as well, like this shit on a tablet.
	Okay, here's a wine list.
	Let me just explain it, because even the waitress agreed, because the two of them, they were going, what?
	No.
	The waitress said, yeah, yeah.
	And what I said was, this is a wine list of something like 10,000 wines.
	Wow.
	And there's no way of searching it.
	It's not indexed.
	You have to scroll literally through 10,000 wines.
	Oh, that's funny.
	And she's going, yeah, it's crazy.
	And they're going, no.
	And I said, yeah, and it's lucky I found anything at all because you've got this, you don't believe what, it sounds stupid because it is.
	So you scroll and you scroll and you scroll and you're at like wine 100.
	You've been there 10 minutes.
	It's unbelievable.
	So Dana sends me this picture.
	I send him back and said, oh my goodness, that's so familiar.
	This is JCD picking the wine we will all drink that only you will pay for.
	I don't over... I don't run the business.
	No, you don't.
	No, I know you don't.
	If it's a hundred bucks, you're like, no, that's too much.
	Even I've seen you go like $65 too much for that wine.
	I've seen you do that.
	No, it's all specific.
	A hundred bucks is not too much for some wine.
	I know, but you, but when, when it was on my credit card or the company card, Mevio.
	Company card.
	You, uh, you would never overdo it.
	We drank well, but you never overdid it.
	I guess this time you did.
	Believe me, I will say this, if for some reason, like I wouldn't buy a $500 bottle of wine on somebody's card, but let's say it was Mouton 1945.
	I would definitely pay 500 bucks for that wine.
	And if they didn't want to pick it up, I would.
	All right.
	So everything is all balanced.
	You know, it's like, uh, what's, what's the best for the price?
	Best price.
	I don't have any clips.
	You might, but unlikely.
	But I thought it was just fantastic to see the Queen in her golden carriage as a hologram parading through the streets of London.
	I guess you didn't see this.
	I missed this.
	They had the golden carriage, you know, the whole procession.
	And then she can be around forever!
	But it was the old Queen Elizabeth, when she still had dark hair and was hot.
	And it was a hologram, and she's waving inside this golden carriage.
	It's really good, it's very well done.
	We'll have to look for a video of that.
	But to me, it's like, okay, now let's just all agree.
	I'm sorry, the Queen passed away, the timing was not right, they probably used a body double for that hobble onto the Onto the balcony.
	They're just waiting for the right moment, and I think that if we really put our minds to it, we can probably deconstruct when Charles will ascend to the throne.
	Deadpool?
	Yes!
	Royal Deadpool, my friend.
	Not just any old Deadpool.
	Royal Deadpool.
	I just thought that was super exciting.
	We got ABBA doing their low-rent holographic performance.
	And maybe this was the same technology.
	You know, just a screen, but it made it look real with the way it was lit, the way the character was positioned.
	We can live on forever, too.
	There's thousands of hours.
	Thousands of hours of Adam and John.
	Where's the... Okay.
	Hello, AI people.
	Where's the artificial intelligence?
	Don't give anyone any ideas, hello?
	Hey, well just, while we're alive we can take a royalty.
	I'm hereby claiming... You know, that's not how it works.
	That's how idealistically it works, but it wouldn't be that way.
	Are they both dead yet?
	What do you mean?
	That's when you're dead.
	That's when they start doing this and, oh, we don't really have anyone to give the royalty to.
	Oh, you mean they're holding back on doing this until we're gone?
	That's what you would do.
	Wouldn't you?
	That's what I'd do.
	It's what they do with the, it's what the Americans tend to do with it.
	That's why I mentioned it before in the show, why the smart card took forever to take hold in the United States.
	They waited for the patent to run out.
	Oh, there's that.
	There's that too.
	Yeah.
	Well, I'm here to say that this next coming week, is going to, in the world of media deconstruction, is going to suck ass.
	And you're probably wondering why.
	I'm wondering why.
	The congressional inquiry into the January 6th attack on the U.S.
	Capitol, the so-called insurrection, will air in primetime.
	Prime time, ladies and gentlemen.
	Starting... I'm just going to cost the Democrats a vote.
	Starting, I think, June 9th at 8pm.
	Additional hearings are set for June 13th.
	Joe, hold on a second.
	How did the networks agree to such a stupid thing?
	Well, now, I don't, I don't know if, and I, I have no confirmation the networks will do this, but you can only imagine they will, and they'll have three days to precede that hearing with setup, with innuendo, and stuff like this.
	Tonight, a defiant Peter Navarro leaving a federal courthouse after being indicted on two counts of criminal contempt of Congress.
	No American citizen should have to go through what I went through today, who is trying to do the right thing.
	I'm trying to do my duty to this country.
	I'm in an untenable position.
	Trump's former trade advisor claiming he was handcuffed at an airport gate on his way to Nashville for refusing to comply with the House Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection.
	Navarro was part of Trump's inner circle that pushed false claims about the 2020 election, even writing a book detailing his plan to overturn an election Trump lost.
	Lawmakers wanted him to turn over documents and testify.
	He refused, claiming his hands were tied, citing executive privilege.
	Overnight, the 72-year-old telling MSNBC he was worried about prison.
	The average lifespan in America for an American male is 76 years old.
	If I were to go to prison for a year, which is what the contempt of charge could do to me, that would be about a fourth of my remaining life.
	Well, I don't know about that.
	But arresting the guy at the airport, is that because, A, they have some kind of no-fly notice or security, although it was at the gate, which is kind of odd.
	So that means probably B to impose maximum embarrassment.
	Yeah.
	Handcuff the guy at the gate?
	There's a slight, they left a little piece of this out because it might have been too outrageous.
	They cuffed him and put him in leg irons.
	No.
	Yes.
	Wow.
	That's, that's some brown shirt crap right there.
	In public, in public.
	They found it.
	The guy would, all they have to do is say, hey, you want to cut, you know, you can come with us.
	Yeah.
	I mean, and that's not even that.
	It's about showing, getting documents.
	Yeah.
	That he claims are executive privilege, but they're going to put him in leg irons?
	Yeah.
	Why don't you just put a big, like an iron ball that could drag along, you know?
	That's what's missing.
	I agree a hundred percent.
	That would be good.
	An iron ball would be ideal.
	And he has to carry the ball.
	That would be perfect.
	You're riding an iron ball and you have to carry the ball.
	I can see the artist's mind spinning already.
	Probably won't use it, but it's funny.
	Yeah, and this was too much, and that's why they left it out of that report.
	They're in trouble.
	These guys, if they're going to try to put this... Primetime!
	Primetime!
	Primetime!
	And this is ridiculous.
	And there's not one Republican representative on there that's not a Republican.
	Well, Cheney, of course.
	Cheney and this Kinzinger jerk-off.
	Both of them are really Democrats.
	And Kinzinger won't even run for office again because he doesn't want to get tarred and feathered.
	And Cheney's having nothing but trouble.
	So it's a Democrat kangaroo court.
	And I don't think this is going to look good.
	You know, it all depends on their media partners.
	The M5M.
	I think that that's very possible.
	They can dress it up.
	Again, they have, this is perfectly timed.
	And I think the 9th will be, let's see, 7, 8, 9, is that Thursday?
	Yeah, I think this is where the primaries are underway in many states.
	So this will be the big distraction for this entire week.
	They have to set up more.
	We're going to talk more.
	We'll be talking all week about who's going to be in this trial of, we need a name like trial of the century.
	One sixth trial of the century.
	We're going to have to have some kind of slogan.
	Because they don't really have that together.
	I don't know if they're going to be able to pull the slogan thing off.
	If the networks are supposed to do anything with this, which I doubt, because no network executive in his right mind is going to want to run this.
	But it'll be CNN, Fox, MSNBC.
	It'll be straight on that.
	That's fine, but nobody watches those.
	Fox shouldn't run it.
	Uh, if they're true to their supposed cause.
	And CNN will run it.
	Nobody watches CNN.
	Nobody watches MSNBC.
	Uh, PBS will probably run it.
	A lot of people watch that, but they're not going to watch during prime time.
	Uh, it's the networks that run it.
	One network goes rogue and they take all the ratings and they can't have that.
	So this is going to be hard to do.
	But I'm game.
	I'll see what happens.
	It's not a good look.
	No, it's not a good look, but I think that a lot of people... I watch MSNBC, and I know I'm one of only 900,000, but I watch CNN for the same reason.
	I watch as much as I can, and I think that it's just going to be blanketing the media.
	That is definitely going to happen.
	You'll see.
	I'd like to see how it rolls out.
	I mean, why else do it at 8 p.m.?
	I mean, 8 p.m.
	is... It's because they're idiots.
	They really think that they know what they're doing, and they say, well, I know what we need to do.
	We need to do this.
	I have a bunch of clips of these progressives talking to each other.
	Let's do it.
	Let's do it.
	So these are not new clips, but the progressives are freaked out because they're going to lose, have their asses handed to them.
	So they're all kind of, let's try this.
	I got three clips.
	This is with the, let's start with this one.
	This is not from NPR.
	This is progressives, the Democrats.
	This is featuring Jamie Raskin.
	With Republicans threatening to take over control of the U.S.
	House, two of its progressive Democrats are teaming up to develop new strategies to expand the progressive wing of their party.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry.
	It was a cue.
	You can go.
	I screwed up.
	With Republicans threatening to take over control of the U.S. House, two of its progressive Democrats are teaming up to develop new strategies to expand the progressive wing of their party.
	NPR's Claudia Grisaldis reports they say that work includes new efforts at coalition building.
	House Democratic progressives Ro Khanna and Jamie Raskin tell NPR they're tired of the ideological purity politics that have overtaken the party's message.
	The two began meeting late last year and say progressive Democrats need to reclaim issues of patriotism, reject socialist labels, and stay out of the political correctness business.
	And so we have a skepticism out there for a large part of the country that has fallen behind, that has lost jobs.
	All of the political dogmas of the past are not serving particularly well.
	Khanna and Raskin say Democrats should stop preaching and instead spend more time listening to voters.
	And with this, I think you're right that the backfire, if there's a backfire, if there's a backlash, which of course that won't be televised, will be because people are concerned about other things.
	Like, we don't really don't care about this anymore.
	You know, that was January.
	Over a year ago.
	Over a year ago.
	We don't have memory.
	Our collective memory is fuzzy.
	We're worried about gas prices.
	You're trying to remind people thinking that this is a good wedge issue that can get people to vote about.
	It's not happening.
	Nobody cares about some of this stuff.
	They care about the price of gasoline.
	Have you filled up your tank?
	Yes.
	Yeah, 80 bucks here in Texas.
	It's 100 here.
	Yeah, well I know, that's your punishment for living in the devil's country.
	It's true, but you get to be in the devil's country.
	Yeah, well there's that.
	So let's go to, here's some more stuff, just a different report on similar stuff, progressives during election open.
	Do you feel that lower level of enthusiasm in this election climate?
	Yeah, so in my conversations recently with a lot of progressive strategists, one thing that has certainly been true is the fact that they feel like the party in Washington has not delivered the type of bold change that they had hoped for, that they had been counting on, and that they feel like Biden ran on as a candidate.
	And I talked to a couple of strategists recently who told me they believe that may be one thing that is a huge warning sign when we look at turnout in these midterm elections.
	If people don't feel like their lives have been meaningfully changed in these big, bold ways, they cite things like meaningful action on climate change, for example.
	Any kind of big student debt relief.
	Those things haven't materialized, so people may not be as excited to turn out as Democrats would hope, which, when you're thinking about control of Congress, they could be in big trouble.
	Okay, so it's thinking like a stupid strategist.
	The idea is, okay, well, climate change, obviously, we're always messaging about that, but let's give $5 billion to people who got a bad loan from that university the vice president pursued.
	So they're trying to throw him a bone, a $5 billion bone, which is, that's pathetic if they think that's going to make the progressive wing of the Democrat Party feel any better.
	Well, the other thing is that keeps cropping up.
	I don't have any real good clips of this, but I keep hearing it, which is they think that the reason that they're not doing well and they're not going to get the votes in the primaries or in these midterms is that they're not progressive enough.
	You mean the progressives aren't progressive enough?
	That's what they're saying.
	For example, Biden promised, Biden ran on a progressive platform promising free college.
	Yes.
	Didn't deliver.
	No.
	He promised that student loan debt relief hasn't delivered.
	Nope.
	He promised this, he promised that.
	And the Bernie Sanders type people, they go, well, you know, if we get the votes out, if we ran people that were really super progressive and followed up with their promises, in other words, bankrupt the country.
	But that's beside it.
	Details, details, details.
	So they have these issues.
	There's a second part of this.
	Democrats face an uphill battle to hang on to power in Congress.
	So one of the big things that I've been watching is number of races in which progressive candidates who have been making big gains over the last few years may have an opportunity to increase their power, even as Democrats may be in for a rough time of it.
	And that's NPR.
	That's an example where, you know, the progressives that are in office in these lockdown areas.
	I would say we have one here in the Bay Area, Barbara Lee, who speaks for me, woman.
	She's very progressive and she's never, you can't vote her out if you wanted to.
	Everyone's, yeah, yeah, that's what we should do.
	We need more socialism.
	So they're, you know, they're falling into the trap of their own, uh, making and yeah, see what happens.
	And I think this, this, these hearings will be part of the same thing.
	It's going to be, people are going to, I don't care how many times they, you know, you, the media can cover for you.
	They can't, they can't cover for stupidity.
	I'm glad, I'm glad you use that word because I was looking for a place to play this.
	Uh, there's a, I guess it's well-known.
	It wasn't that well-known to me, though it kind of rang a bell faintly.
	The Bonhoeffer letters from prison, does this mean anything to you?
	It rings a bell, but that's all it does.
	So Bonhoeffer was a priest in pre-Nazi Germany, or a pastor, I should say.
	And when people started throwing, you know, like the Kristallnacht started breaking windows of Jewish shop owners, he was preaching to his flock like, hey, you know, this is stupid, don't do this.
	Then, of course, he eventually got arrested by the Nazis, and he did wind up dying in a concentration camp.
	But while he was in prison, initially, he wrote these letters, and in it he explains that the problem Because these are not dumb people.
	The Democrats are not dumb people.
	They have intellect, clearly, but they're stupid.
	And so he wrote these letters about stupidity over malice, and someone sent me this video, so it's narrated.
	You know, I could read them to you, or we could do this from the video.
	I thought it was interesting.
	In his famous letters from prison, Bonhoeffer argued that stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice.
	Because while one may protest against evil, it can be exposed and prevented by the use of force.
	Against stupidity, we are defenseless.
	Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here.
	Reasons fall on deaf ears.
	Facts that contradict a stupid person's prejudgment simply need not be believed, and when they are irrefutable, they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental.
	In all this, the stupid person is self-satisfied and, being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack.
	For that reason, greater caution is called for when dealing with a stupid person than with a malicious one.
	Okay.
	No, I don't care about the guitar.
	This is good stuff.
	Yeah, so here's the second part.
	It's really only... The last one is just a short ender.
	And here he explains that this is not because these people aren't intellect... It's not an intellectual problem, but it's a moral problem.
	Stupidity is, in essence, not an intellectual defect, but a moral one.
	There are human beings who are remarkably agile intellectually, yet stupid, and others who are intellectually dull, yet anything but stupid.
	The impression one gains is not so much that stupidity is a congenital defect, but that, under certain circumstances, people are made stupid, or rather, they allow this to happen to them.
	People who live in solitude manifest this defect less frequently than individuals in groups.
	And so it would seem that stupidity is perhaps less a psychological than a sociological problem.
	It becomes apparent that every strong upsurge of power, be it of a political or religious nature, infects a large part of humankind with stupidity.
	Almost as if this is a sociological-psychological law, where the power of the one needs the stupidity of the other.
	The process at work here is not that particular human capacities such as intellect suddenly fail.
	Instead, it seems that under the overwhelming impact of rising power, humans are deprived of their inner independence and, more or less consciously, give up an autonomous position.
	The fact that the stupid person is often stubborn must not blind us from the fact that he is not independent.
	In conversation with him, one virtually feels that one is dealing not at all with him as a person, but with slogans, catchwords and the like that have taken possession of him.
	He is under a spell, blinded, misused, and is abused in his very being.
	Having thus become a mindless tool, the stupid person will also be capable of any evil, incapable of seeing that it is evil.
	Yeah.
	You know, just hearing this from the guy who observed it firsthand?
	It's home for me.
	It's great.
	I was one of these stupid people when I was in college at the University of California, Berkeley.
	Gee, I wonder if there was any influence there.
	Were you part of a group of stupid?
	I'm looking back on it.
	There's a third kicker?
	Yeah, it's 23 minutes.
	Well, of course you want to know, what can you do?
	I mean, clearly arguing against this.
	And by the way, Looking at the group context, an argument can be made to say MAGA is also stupid.
	Could be.
	Yeah.
	We have to observe that.
	I think it's mostly ultra-MAGA.
	It's Ultramag or nothing, baby.
	So, what can you do?
	How do you unshackle the stupid?
	Only an act of liberation, not instruction, can overcome stupidity.
	Here, we must come to terms with the fact that in most cases, a genuine internal liberation becomes possible only when external liberation has preceded it.
	Until then, we must abandon all attempts to convince the stupid person So, when I hear this, I'm thinking, okay, so, you know, what does this mean for the physical liberation of the stupid?
	Before you go on with that analysis, the last little thing he said, which was, we should just give up?
	No, no, no, no, hold on here.
	Until then, we must abandon.
	Becomes possible only when external liberation has preceded it.
	So it has to be external liberation first before you can liberate the internal.
	He didn't even use before.
	He said, we must abandon.
	Listen to this.
	He says, don't even try.
	No, he says, no, that's not true, John.
	Listen to the whole thing again.
	Listen.
	Only an act of liberation, not instruction, can overcome stupidity.
	So an act of liberation.
	If you let the whole thing play like you just said you would.
	Yeah, he's coming!
	He's coming!
	Here, we must come to terms with the fact that in most cases, a genuine internal liberation becomes possible only when external liberation has preceded it.
	Until then, we must abandon all attempts to convince this stupid person.
	Okay, the way I hear that is, these people cannot be, uh, freed internally until they've been freed externally.
	Preceding that, he says, until then everything... Yeah, I agree.
	But my point was, and I was emphasizing, was the fact that it's hopeless for anyone to try to push them in one direction or another because they're so stupid.
	But wait... You can't do anything.
	No, he says... So we must abandon all attempts.
	No, he says, if you can free them externally... And I haven't thought about that.
	He never said you.
	If you can free them, they have to be... The external freedom is not necessarily achieved by you.
	Agreed, agreed, agreed.
	But I think there is something very obvious that is the external freedom that is still with the stupid.
	And we even recognize them as stupid.
	Masks!
	That is the external shackle of the stupid.
	And it's not like it's a lot still, but it's quite a bit.
	And it's enough for the stupid to make a lot of noise.
	And I think I have proof, but before you go on, I have to mention something, a local phenomenon.
	And Jesse and JC pointed this out at dinner, and it was that San Francisco, since they released their mask mandates, they're so stupid that you can go to San Francisco and nobody's wearing masks.
	It all took them off at once.
	Lockstep.
	Really?
	In the East?
	Yes.
	You can go to San Francisco.
	Nobody's wearing a mask.
	And so, uh... Oh, well, then there's hope.
	No.
	No?
	No, there's no hope, because the thing is, it's a lockstep.
	Take your mask off.
	Yes.
	Put your mask on.
	Yes.
	Oh, right.
	Oh, okay.
	That's even better.
	It's worse.
	It's better, but worse.
	It's better for the show.
	It's worse for humanity, because That, that exact thing Simon says, put your mask on, Simon says take your mask off, that is going to be codified, and that's why Herr Fauci made a rare appearance on Fox News!
	Fauci on Fox News, everybody!
	Let's look at that clip, because Fauci says something here that just is the obvi- well, we saw right through it immediately, but it is about the power to be Simon Says!
	So, Doctor, at the same time the Justice Department is pushing the appeals court to intervene on this ruling that lifts mask mandates on public transportation, mass transit, that sort of thing, what do you think of that?
	Are you asking me what I think about the Justice Department appealing this court decision about pulling back?
	Exactly.
	You know, one of the issues, Neil, that I have articulated in the past, and I will in the future, it's less about mandates on the plane than it is about who has the right and the authority and the capability of making public health decisions.
	And I believe that the Department of Justice is operating on the principle That decisions that are public health decisions belong with the public health agency.
	In this case, the CDC.
	So it's more of a matter of principle of where the authority lies than it is about whether or not there's going to be a mandate on a plane or not.
	It's about the power.
	The power of who gets to tell you what to do.
	And he wants that to be with the CDC.
	For a moment there, the CDC was the laughing stock.
	It only lasted a week.
	Remember, CDC says, you know, don't eat the brown acid.
	Because CDC flip-flopped back and forth so many times on this very issue.
	So they want that power codified.
	Well, this has been going on with a bunch of proposed laws for this and that.
	It always has something to do with these health department weenies.
	Rat poop inspectors.
	Rat poop inspectors.
	Well, let's see what this rat poop inspector actually, what his personal preference is.
	But do you personally, Doc, I mean, when you travel and when you go around, do you prefer wearing a mask yourself?
	I know you've avoided public venues and large gatherings.
	I think the White House Correspondents Dinner comes to mind.
	Do you still have those reservations, even now?
	You know, I do.
	I mean, the CDC continues to recommend that when people fly, that they wear masks.
	Now, the mandate has been pulled back on the decision of the court, but that does not change the recommendation of the CDC, Neil, or my own personal preference.
	When I travel on the plane, given my evaluation of my personal risk, As a person of my age, with or without underlying conditions, that I feel that I would be much more comfortable, for my safety and even for the safety of others, to wear a mask.
	But that's a recommendation.
	That's not a mandate.
	Alright, so it wasn't your way of saying you didn't want to be hounded by people who know you, right?
	I mean, you just wanted to keep that on for your safety.
	Just saying.
	I'm just throwing that out there.
	It certainly is.
	Idiots.
	Well, in Canada, they know fully well who has the power to tell you what to do.
	Vaccinated may not travel, or unvaccinated to this day, still may not travel on any public transport, airlines, trains, coaches, which is fancy for a bus.
	And just in case, just in case, the authorities are preparing for vaccine deniers and anti-COVID people protesting at airports, A scene unfolded at Pearson Airport today that could have fooled onlookers.
	So today we're having a mock emergency exercise happening.
	So we're testing our response to an emergency or security situation.
	So we've got protesters in the back who have been very enthusiastic about playing their roles and we've been testing our response to it.
	Yes, as you can see, people, both volunteers and airport employees, getting into character for the fake protest.
	The exercise is actually a requirement by Transport Canada.
	The GTA says it's an important way to test the airport's emergency response.
	Canada has already been assimilated!
	I mean, this is... What's their problem up there?
	This is fantastic!
	So they, I mean... These are people, and you literally hear them yelling, Freedom!
	Freedom!
	Yeah, these are the crazy fucks.
	They're just acting.
	But, you know, people might show up shouting, Freedom!
	So we gotta be prepared for that.
	Of course, they can hire these very same people to make it look like a real protest, as she said.
	Oh, this could have fooled anybody.
	Or just use it as B-roll in the future.
	It's so dystopian.
	Yeah.
	That's unbelievable.
	Yeah.
	Well, I haven't got any COVID stuff, unfortunately.
	I'm glad you're keeping up.
	Well, I do actually have two things, two things.
	There's some strong suspicion, as I think when this monkey pox bull crap first came out, it was immediately mentioned.
	Yeah.
	And I think there's some validity to the idea that this is now being touted as, oh, something you can get.
	By the way, it's only gay and bisexual men.
	And the bisexual men who get it, they never have sex with women, so nothing to worry about, because they're bisexual.
	They only have sex with men.
	That it's really intended to cover up Yeah, because all these pictures they were posting, including one I ran in the newsletter, which disgusted a bunch of people.
	I refuse to do that again in the future.
	Shingles is fairly indistinguishable.
	I think you even brought that up. - Yeah, it was because all these pictures they were posting, including one I ran in the newsletter, which disgusted a bunch of people.
	I refuse to do that again in the future.
	It was actually shingles. - And what's happening with Quebec?
	I mean, do they have another gay party up there?
	The number of monkeypox cases in Quebec has more than doubled from a week ago.
	Provincial health officials say 52 infections have been confirmed so far, up from 25 cases reported last week.
	Quebec started administering doses of the smallpox vaccine in a bid to contain the outbreak.
	The shots are reserved for close contacts of high-risk people.
	Must be super gay up there.
	I don't know how else they can get it.
	Israeli study.
	the disease.
	Experts say most monkeypox cases are mild and patients usually do recover.
	Must be super gay up there.
	I don't know how else they can get it.
	Israeli study.
	This links COVID vaccines to 25% increase in cardiac arrests for both males and females.
	Pfizer on the warpath, the Novavax vaccine.
	I guess Novavax stock bombed on Friday because data from the passive surveillance during post-authorization use in other countries indicate a higher than expected rate of myocarditis and pericarditis associated with the vaccine, the FDA said.
	However, interpretation of these passive surveillance data is not straightforward.
	Further evaluation is needed to inform the risk associated with the vaccine and their outcomes.
	So everyone believes it'll get approved eventually.
	What is the Novavax?
	It's a non-mRNA, which is why it cannot get onto the market, of course.
	I do not know exactly what they're, but you know, Novavax, the Novavax from my day trading days, that was like, that was a dream stock.
	It's like, they'd always say, oh, here's a trial failed, you know, shorted, boom, 50%, 50% off.
	And then so just, you have to guess the top because once they announce that it didn't work.
	It collapses immediately.
	It's a great stock to short.
	And you know, you could long it too sometimes.
	The CDC is now sending monkeypox vaccine to people at high risk, as you kind of just heard in that clip.
	So, you know, there's some thought that this is related.
	Yeah, I saw that, Mikey.
	I actually put that in the newsletter with a link to the story.
	Yeah, what's up with that?
	It's like, what?
	Who's at high risk?
	Gays!
	So all the gays are going to get this stupid shot now?
	Give me a break.
	Well, you can't on one hand say gay and bisexual men are getting it and spreading it and then not send them the vaccine, if you're honest.
	Yeah, but then again, if I was gay or bi or whatever, say I was gay.
	You don't have to say it, but just for the purposes of argument.
	And they sent me this vaccine saying, hey, you know, you might get monkey... I wouldn't take it in a million years!
	This is some sort of scheme to get rid of all the gays!
	You'd be a great sugar daddy, that's for sure.
	With what?
	Would you like my gong?
	Well, I'd just like to remind everybody, when the HIV crisis struck... the The gays got AIDS.
	AIDS, you know, so there is a claimed relationship between the virus, the HIV, and the syndrome AIDS.
	And the thinking is that because the gays had lived promiscuous lifestyles, and certainly in the 80s a lot of Drugs, poppers, bathhouses everywhere.
	That their immune systems were already kind of on the ropes and then along comes HIV.
	Also poppers.
	That's what I said, yeah, poppers.
	Hurting their immune systems.
	So they know how to create a crisis with the gaze.
	Because I believe that that was at least partially manufactured the way they presented it.
	Because there was a lot of immune system issues in general.
	But that's just me.
	Joining me, though, is my girlfriend, Naomi Wolf.
	I cannot... I'd say it before you do.
	I cannot get enough of what she's doing.
	So she's like a cornerstone guest now on The War Room with Steve Bannon, which is just the idea.
	I want everyone to understand.
	He's a horndog, that guy.
	He just thinks she's pretty.
	But from a spectrum perspective, Steve Bannon, ultra-MAGA, Naomi Wolf, ultra-tard.
	I mean, it's MAGA-tard.
	Ooh.
	Ooh.
	Show title.
	You know what that is?
	That's a superhero.
	Magatard!
	Magatard!
	Exactly!
	Magatard!
	Exactly.
	Magatard.
	So here is Naomi Wolf.
	Now she's on with Del Bigtree, who is the television producer who produced the doctors and many of these medical medical shows.
	He's quite well respected.
	And here she is continuing her claims of genocide.
	Initially, before I saw the Pfizer documents, I thought, comparing this to Dr. Mengele... Yeah, and I should probably reiterate that she and her team at her company have been combing through the 50,000 Pfizer documents that Pfizer wanted hidden by the judge for 75 years.
	And, you know, these documents are available.
	The M5M is not doing any work on it.
	Dr. Naomi... And why would they?
	And Dr. Naomi Wolf is.
	Initially, before I saw the Pfizer documents, I thought, Comparing this to Dr. Mengele is rhetorical.
	It's excessive.
	There's no cause for it.
	Now I've seen these documents.
	Did she say Dr. Mengele?
	Yes, she did.
	Okay.
	Do you want to play it again?
	Initially, before I saw the Pfizer documents, I thought, Comparing this to Dr. Mengele is rhetorical.
	It's excessive.
	There's no cause for it.
	Now I've seen these documents.
	These people knew for 14 months to this day, right?
	They know that these injections kill babies, that these injections cause neurological harms, cause strokes, cause clotting.
	They know, you know, people I know are collapsing and there's like a meme on social media of athletes collapsing.
	Doctors are mystified.
	I looked at the SEC filings of BioNTech.
	One of the things BioNTech discloses to the SEC, but no one disclosed to you and me, is that fainting so hard you could hurt yourself is an identified side effect of these injections, right?
	So what do you call that?
	I mean, they knew that babies were dying, and they kept going.
	They knew that people were having strokes and heart attacks, that there was cardiac damage to kids, and they kept going, right?
	And they kept saying, yes, we're authorizing this for teenagers.
	Yes, we're authorizing this for, you know, young children.
	Now we want to authorize it for babies to five-year-olds.
	We have never seen that before in history, but genocide is narrowly defined legally as targeting a population.
	That's ethnic or racial.
	That's just a legal definition in international law.
	The genocide, in terms of its root structure, means the killing of a people.
	Well, the intentional killing, intentional, it's intentional if you don't stop it, right?
	If you know and you don't stop, and if you say, and even legally, right?
	A lot of the lawyers are looking at conspiracy, you know, RICO type things, racketeering.
	If you know there are dangerous harms and you expose children to them, that's a criminal offense.
	If you know that someone can die and you, you know, do it anyway, that's at least medical malpractice, if not manslaughter.
	I mean, these are categories of harms we haven't seen before, but the effect is to target the human race.
	You know, they're vaccinating everyone and they literally did not know what would happen except that they were seeing, you know, the tallies come in.
	of people being injured, broken, miscarriages, abortions, you know, spontaneous abortions, and dead babies.
	So, yeah, I call it, what I call it is, it turns out there can be a happenstance genocide.
	Right, Naomi.
	She's one of the few.
	Yeah, yeah, well, she snapped out of it.
	She was stupid once.
	Yes, yes, we have to figure out what physical unshackling took place.
	Well, I think a lot of it happens from self-realization.
	You know, actualization, or self-actualization.
	She was on her merry way as a stupid person, and then something she read or did or found out about, and it's just, wait a minute.
	Wait a minute, someone's been lying to me.
	Let me look into this.
	Holy mackerel!
	I have been scammed!
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	And then you go nuts.
	And then the next thing you know, you're just on the other side of the fence.
	Before you know it, you're MAGA-tard!
	You're MAGA-tard.
	Look, someone already registered MAGA-tard.
	MAGA-tard!
	MAGA-tard.com is already taken, unfortunately.
	Unfortunately.
	If you think about it, I can see that, because MAGA puts tard on the end of everything.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Ultra MAGA-tard, I bet you, is not taken.
	Well, you know, you saying it on the stream probably diminishes my chances, but let's try it.
	You've got about five seconds.
	This is about a five second delay.
	UltraMagatar.com, okay.
	We're going... What?
	Okay.
	This will be exciting to see if I can do it.
	Yes!
	Yes, baby!
	Yes.
	Boom.
	Register.
	Ultramagatard.com.
	Super.
	Hey, hey, hey.
	Another 14 bucks a year.
	Adam's down.
	Down to tubes.
	So now I've taken to whenever I get a, this domain will, Ooh, I got confetti.
	Congratulations.
	Successfully registered.
	Whenever I get one of those reminders, I sit, I take a moment and think, Will we really need blockthevote.com?
	There's a lot of stuff that we come up with during the show that is never used.
	Ever.
	No.
	Ever.
	Ultra Magatart is a loser.
	There's no way it's going to be used for anything.
	But you proved you could do it.
	Hey, okay.
	Oh, there you go.
	That's the good part.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Stupid.
	I like this definition.
	These people are just stupid.
	Doesn't mean they're dumb.
	They're not.
	They're stupid.
	It's different.
	I used to be, when I was at Cal and I think, I don't know when I stopped seeing, I had a girlfriend there whose dad was head of the Asia Foundation.
	Oh, okay.
	That's a spook outfit.
	It's a CIA front.
	Yeah, definitely.
	I didn't know.
	But to be honest about it, looking back on it, oh yeah.
	Knowing what I know now and knowing, you know, okay yeah, definitely a spook.
	But that's when the spooks are more Republicans than they are Democrats.
	Oh yeah, that's Uncle Don's turf right there.
	Asian Society, North Korea, he was the chairman of the Korea Society.
	Not a spook!
	Yeah, so here's, so here, so he'd constantly do this when I was over at their, they had a fancy kind of a penthouse apartment.
	And it was, uh...
	I was just off campus and I'd go over there and if I was ever talking about anything, this being at Cal Berkeley during, you know, the period where any time in history, let's face it.
	And so he'd cross his legs and he had his one leg crossed and then I'd be talking about something and then he'd take his hand like a karate chop and casually hit his knee and have his knee kick up, his leg kick up.
	Doing a reflex hit?
	He's doing, he's telling me, I knew what he was doing.
	He'd do it every, I'd say something, bang, there it'd go.
	I'd say something, bang, there it'd go.
	It was the code for knee jerk.
	Oh.
	Cause I was just spewing like the stupid people do.
	You know, bromides, oh yeah, we gotta do this, we gotta do that.
	Black lives matter, man.
	And every time I said anything, he'd just be slapping his little knee there and making his knee jerk around with a smile on his face.
	Now, that's interesting.
	Constantly doing this while I'm there is very borderline humiliating, but I thought he was a fucking old guy.
	What does he know?
	That sounds to me like a spook tactic.
	How do you break a stupid person you need to control?
	It didn't work.
	Well, it didn't work.
	It did.
	He was fundamental in your understanding of the world.
	Well, he definitely had that little gag that he liked to pull.
	Didn't hurt.
	You know, speaking of Magatard, the three best words in the TARD dictionary ever?
	She's a rescue.
	What?
	She's a rescue.
	She's a rescue?
	Yes.
	I had to, um, my, uh, my front right tire, I've run flats, but you know, I had a nail in it and I don't think they can repair those.
	You have to get a new one and it really sucks.
	Um, and I have, and I have to drive, uh, uh, to Austin.
	I got a lot going on this week.
	So I, I really, the only time I really could do this was yesterday, which screwed up my taping with Mo, a whole bunch of stuff.
	Um, so I've been socializing Phoebe, the dog.
	And I said, okay, this will be a big trip.
	It's 45 minutes to the dealership.
	We drive there.
	And, you know, she's still kind of in training and, you know, hopefully she's going to be civil about it.
	And, you know, this is how I get out of this car with this hundred pound dog.
	Man, every single person.
	First of all, she's beautiful to look at.
	People say, oh, that's great.
	What kind is it?
	She's a rescue.
	You say that, people will sit down with you, will talk with you, oh my God, that's so fantastic, so great, you rescued her, and they'll tell you their whole dog story.
	I was not bored for the whole two hours I was there.
	It's a beautiful sequence of words.
	She's a rescue.
	She's a rescue.
	Okay, now I know what you're talking about.
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	Yeah.
	I'm impressed.
	I mean, women, dudes, you know, the Mexicans are the best.
	They're all like, hello mamas, hello mamas.
	That's what they call the dog.
	And they all do it.
	Hello mamas.
	I'm not sure what that means.
	Hello mamas.
	There's a million ways I could go with that, but I'm going over it.
	Yeah, all you have to say is, she's a rescue.
	You know, you can... She's a rescue.
	Okay, okay.
	Alright, the trolls are like, oh, that's a riveting tale.
	No!
	This is important stuff!
	I said trolls!
	Get them off!
	Bounce them, bounce them!
	Alright, let me bounce that.
	Now, who was that?
	Brit and such.
	Okay.
	It's a pretty good sarcastic remark.
	All right.
	I did it.
	I kicked him out.
	Yes.
	Well, sarcasm is the key to the understanding of the troll room.
	And good news.
	We were correct to ridicule the Fox News model on the use of the word verbate.
	Okay, I'm all ears.
	Many people sent it in and said, it was entirely incorrect, because verbatim is an adverb, verbate is a verb.
	So she could not read it to us verbate, she could have said, I will verbate it to you.
	Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes.
	So, thank you.
	Exactly, I agree with that, yeah.
	I will verbate.
	We were correct to ridicule the news model.
	I felt so bad about it.
	Jeffrey Toobin likes to verbate.
	He's a master verbater.
	Yeah, he is.
	All right.
	As we go down the tubes.
	Pick up a topic.
	It's because you brought in Brunetti and Alex.
	Well, I got these pictures this morning.
	I had to discuss them.
	Okay.
	Alright.
	Alex is a charmer, by the way.
	She's the best.
	Yes.
	I'll throw that in.
	Yes.
	The not-Russian Alex.
	No, not the Russian one.
	By the way, she got to meet Amber Heard when she first hit Hollywood.
	Oh, and did she have any good stories?
	She thought she was a jerk.
	Ah, well, there you go.
	And then by the way, just to get back to the Amber Heard thing, which is I just introduced it.
	My wife, who's I told you.
	Yeah, we know she's yes, she's she's nuts.
	She's obsessed.
	She says that Amber Heard's dad was a dog fighter with a kennel of like eight or nine dogs.
	He's a real low life.
	And he also ran an illegal gambling parlor.
	You don't say.
	For poker and wherever they were living at the time and got busted more than a few times, but always got off.
	And that the key, the kicker, according to Mimi, was that Amber made a big fuss about making sure that when in a divorce settlement that she got Johnny Depp's Yorkie.
	and And the Yorkie has never been seen her since.
	Yeah.
	Here, fight this thing.
	Oh my goodness.
	Pit bull against a Yorkie.
	Well, I'm glad Mimi's keeping tabs on that for us.
	Somebody's got to.
	And every time she says, what?
	What?
	It's really appreciated.
	Very much.
	All right, what else you got?
	Well, let's go to Ukraine, if you want.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	I got some Ukraine stuff, too.
	I got a couple of Ukraine things.
	Let's start with the mercenaries clip.
	Ukraine mercenaries.
	I think it's under US mercenaries.
	I got it.
	Video footage purportedly shows U.S. volunteer soldiers shooting a rocket at a Russian armored vehicle in Ukraine.
	Oh yeah.
	This follows a Department of Homeland Security warning that Americans volunteering in the conflict could increase extremism at home.
	The Homeland Security bulletin was obtained by transparency group, Property of the People.
	The bulletin says some Americans were recruited by Ukraine's Azov Battalion, a group that has drawn controversy over its neo-Nazi ties.
	The DHS based its assessment on open source information, as well as Customs and Border Protection agents' encounters with Americans departing for Ukraine.
	The Department says they are concerned that training received in Ukraine could be used to bolster U.S.-based militia and white nationalist groups.
	Oh, God!
	Come on.
	Okay.
	RT this morning, so take that for what it's worth, published, Ukraine backtracks on promise to U.S.
	Kiev may strike Crimea, despite assurances U.S.
	weapons won't- I mean Kiev, Kiev might strike Crimea.
	Yeah, Kiev might strike Crimea, that's what I just said.
	What does Kiev got to do with it?
	That means that with the missiles that we just are sending, that they're not supposed to strike Russian territory.
	I would say, arguably, Crimea is.
	Yeah, I'd say.
	So they're now saying Kiev may strike Kriev, like Washington, D.C.
	The actual missiles don't come from Kiev.
	They come from the command from Kiev, from the guy in Poland.
	So they think they're going to... Oh, this could be.
	But the headline for RT, Russia Today, is Ukraine backtracks on promise to Ukraine.
	I thought they said Russia backtracks.
	No, Ukraine.
	Ukraine backtracks.
	Exactly what they promised wouldn't happen.
	Of course.
	It only took three days after the show for them to backtrack.
	I'm surprised it took that long.
	Yeah, you're true.
	So let's go this one.
	There's another little tidbit besides sending him all kinds of fancy gear.
	By the way, so there was a thing on CBS this morning that showed, I didn't get a clip of it, I'm gonna probably put on Thursday's show, where they have some Americans that have gone over there Obviously, and fighting for the Ukrainians.
	The guys on the show with... That's advisors?
	They're training?
	Yeah, no, these are mercenaries.
	Oh, okay, yeah, Black Rock.
	And the guys over there going... With all these missiles, these tank-destroying things, or javelins, or whatever they are.
	He says, they don't work.
	He says, they all need batteries.
	Oh, they're not batteries?
	Batteries, yeah.
	Oh, wow, what a faux pas.
	Yeah, faux pas.
	Here's a Ukraine drone.
	This is a drone story.
	The Biden administration wants to give Ukraine drones, which can be armed with Hellfire missiles.
	If Congress approves, that would be a significant upgrade from the smaller, shorter range drones Ukraine already has in its arsenal.
	And it's on top of President Biden's pledge earlier this week to ship advanced rocket systems to Ukraine.
	But has military support for Ukraine from the U.S.
	and NATO peaked?
	Andrew Exum is a former senior Pentagon official and contributor to The Atlantic.
	He believes the U.S.
	spending on Ukraine may have hit a high watermark.
	He joins us this morning.
	Thanks for being here.
	Yeah, happy to be here.
	So why do you think the tolerance for this level of spending is wearing thin when it comes to the U.S.
	and NATO support for Ukraine?
	Well, I think if we take a step back and we marvel at what we've done already.
	I mean, bear in mind, the last time I served in government, Russia invaded Syria or came to the aid of the Assad regime.
	And between 2015 and 2017, we went to every available means not to kill any Russians over Syria, which is, of course, where we were fighting the Islamic State at the time.
	Fast forward seven years later, we have been shoveling some of our most advanced weapons systems, anti-tank weapons systems, anti-aircraft weapons systems, Did he say most advanced?
	Yeah, he said most advanced.
	We're not shoveling the most advanced stuff their way.
	We're shoveling the turds!
	Well...
	Generally, yeah, but these predators on these little drones might be pretty... might be good.
	Yeah, no, we're not... the most advanced... jeez, I guess... no, there's no way.
	No, the whole point is to... for us to now order.
	We're supposed to order the new most advanced.
	That's what's going on, yeah, from the military-industrial complex.
	This is the litany, so I don't know what's going on with what they're trying to tell us.
	This is the last clip.
	This is Ukraine, there's an interview with this guy Sikorsky, a Polish guy who's been in the, you know, the government on and off in different positions.
	And of course the Poles, we have to realize, hate, above all people, really hate the Russians the most.
	Because the Russians have really treated them very poorly.
	But this is kind of a funny clip because it's like, what are you telling us here?
	For more on what victory in Ukraine should look like and today's European sanctions on Russia, we turn to Radek Sikorski, a member of the European Parliament who's held a number of senior positions in the Polish government, including defense and foreign minister.
	Radek Sikorski, welcome to the NewsHour.
	What's your response to Europe's steps today to ban all sea-based Russian oil from coming into Europe after a compromise with Hungary?
	Well, I wouldn't call it a compromise.
	Hungary has simply used its veto power to extract a concession, which I think will be used to make money.
	Hungary actually has a pipeline to the Adriatic Sea and it could import its oil from there, but it chooses to import it from Vladimir Putin.
	It's another sign of Hungary breaking EU's and NATO's solidarity on this war.
	Is Viktor Orban being honest when he says that his opposition to this plan was based on avoiding oil that would be more expensive for his citizens to pay?
	Well, no, he's right.
	There will be a price to pay for the sanctions.
	But the point is that it's better to pay this price rather than have Putin on NATO and EU border in a few months or a few years time.
	Oh man.
	Wait a minute.
	Russia's on NATO's border now.
	On the border!
	And NATO's the one pushing toward Russia.
	So what's different?
	How's Russia going to be on the border of NATO when NATO's trying to be on the border of Russia?
	That's bullcrap.
	A, and B, what's wrong with protecting your own people?
	A sanction, when we sanctioned Cuba, for example, we sanctioned Iran, it wasn't to hurt us.
	We have to take a knee because we sanctioned somebody, which is what's going on.
	When you're sanctioning someone, it's supposed to hurt them, not you.
	What kind of stupid sanction?
	That's the question.
	What kind of stupid sanction What do you make that hurts you more than it hurts them?
	Well, this is done by stupid people for stupid people.
	That's the theme for the show.
	Stupid.
	Stupid.
	The show is stupid.
	Well, let's listen to the hero of the stupid as new video has emerged of the conversation between Mika Brzezinski, daughter of the old Brzezinski, well known, look him up, and Queen Ursula of the European Union.
	This is all about solidarity.
	So I'm curious, this moment with such unity in Europe hasn't come without a lot of pain.
	So if you could talk about... Even that by itself, such unity has not come without a lot of pain.
	Oh, the pain is only just beginning!
	So I'm curious, this moment with such unity in Europe hasn't come without a lot of pain.
	So if you could talk about the Ukrainian determination.
	You were there with that remarkable meeting in Kiev with President Zelensky.
	Are you inspired, even motivated in your decisions by the determination and the will of the Ukrainian people?
	Absolutely.
	I was before Easter in Bucha.
	In Ukraine and I saw with my own eyes the body bags lined up.
	I saw the mass graves.
	I saw the destroyed houses, but also hospitals, kindergarten.
	It was awful.
	But at the same time I saw the bravery of the Ukrainian people and the hope they put into the The idea we will make it as a sovereign and independent country.
	Then I met with President Zelensky, I'm constantly in touch, but I met him in Kyiv and his leadership is outstanding.
	So it is an enormous motivation because they are not only fighting for their lives and their values, they are also fighting for our values.
	And therefore we have to support them and we are supporting them.
	It could be argued they're fighting for the safety of the world.
	Absolutely.
	Will autocracy win with the aggression of Russia, or democracy?
	Will there be the rule of law which we defend, or is it the right of might that will be the defining factor?
	And therefore, it's an existential crisis, an existential fight, and it's wider than Russia-Ukraine.
	It matters to all of us.
	Okay.
	Hey, existential.
	Hello, Ukraine, meet climate change.
	Existential.
	But, you know, they're really fighting for the world.
	Autocracy versus democracy.
	Yeah, in your own country.
	And we were hypothesizing about Mika and Ursula knowing each other from the tennis club and their dads probably hung out.
	We weren't even close.
	We weren't even close.
	What?
	Do they know each other carnally?
	Thank you so much for joining us on Morning Joe.
	It's a pleasure.
	Thank you for having me.
	Talking to David Ignatius yesterday, and he knew my father really well, and I was watching you and my father at the Brussels Forum in 2015, and David was reminding me how pleased my father would be at some of the things that have happened at this moment in history, and that is a strong Europe.
	His dreams for a strong Europe in a post-Soviet era are finally happening and he would be so pleased to see you in this role.
	But it's so wonderful to sit next to you because indeed I knew your father very well.
	I mean, I was and am and know what his knowledge is concerned and his ability to analyze, fantastic.
	And now to sit here with you is amazing.
	It's a drop.
	No, no, no.
	He would be and is certainly so proud of you.
	Well, to answer your question... Get in a room!
	Yeah, to answer your question, I could see where they might hook up on the down low.
	They look, they both look at, look to type.
	I think Joe Scarborough, Joe Scarborough should be a little worried.
	He'd be watching, he'd be in the corner watching.
	This reminds me of a Friends episode.
	Hmm, okay.
	Yeah.
	Oh, the, uh, the Ukraine's Commissioner of Human Rights?
	Was kicked out of the government over the following comments which were chronicled by Deutsche Welle.
	Ukraine's Commissioner for Human Rights tells me the sheer number of calls makes them think Russians are using rape as a weapon.
	When a Russian soldier rapes a Ukrainian woman, a girl, A boy, an elderly woman, they keep saying things like, this will happen to every Nazi whore, or we will rape until you can't give birth to Ukrainians.
	These are signs of genocide of the Ukrainian people.
	So even the elites thought that went too far.
	Like, no, no, no, you can't be talking like that.
	So she's out.
	It's going.
	She's out.
	You know, it's gone.
	I think it's gone worse.
	I remember or member.
	Member.
	Member.
	Yeah, member.
	If you remember the Libyan situation when they had this phony baloney just to get rid of Gaddafi, they were talking about handing out Viagra.
	Remember that?
	That's right.
	Yeah.
	Just so they could do it.
	The soldiers are handing out Viagra.
	They're all jacked up.
	And so they had to rape.
	Oh my goodness.
	Let me see if we still have that.
	Yeah, I remember that.
	I remember.
	Let's see.
	Hold on a second.
	Hold on.
	Hold on.
	This is from... Oh, here we go.
	Libya.
	Hold on.
	This is this is from.
	Oh, here we go.
	Libya.
	Libya is a unique opportunity for propaganda because the Gaddafi regime maintained such an information vacuum.
	That is, no independent press, people afraid to talk candidly on the phone, so many street informants that it's dangerous to even talk candidly on the street or in cafes.
	In that atmosphere, there's a real opportunity for other parties to throw up their own stories.
	Now, this is not a clip I want.
	Hold on, let's see.
	There's a lot here.
	A South Carolina state lawmaker.
	No, that's not it either.
	Maybe Tapper.
	I know we had a story about this.
	Obviously, there are specific examples of couples where women have a higher... No.
	Hmm.
	I don't... I can't find it, but I absolutely remember the stories.
	It was always, yeah, they're giving him Viagra.
	It was such bullcrap.
	Yeah.
	Was it Libya or was it Syria?
	I'm trying to think.
	No, it was Libya.
	Believe me.
	It might have been both.
	No, Syria wasn't brought up in the coverage.
	The Libya thing was hot and heavy for a short time.
	That's when NATO, by the way, I don't know, who are they protecting?
	Why were they there?
	What was the point?
	But no, NATO was, you know, we fronted NATO.
	You guys go do this.
	We'll take a back seat.
	And so, you know, we were leading from behind, as it were, with Obama in the background and Hillary Clinton spearheading the whole idea, and NATO just blowing the place up.
	And it was like, it was legit because of these soldiers, these Libyans, it was all jacked up and raping.
	The raping was going on.
	So the Libyan thing needs a little more study.
	And how does that have anything to do with the section of the treaty?
	Why is NATO doing anything with Libya?
	Nick, you had a chance to speak with the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court.
	The issue being Gaddafi, the Libyans, what they're doing.
	What did he tell you?
	Here we go.
	With Nick.
	Nick Robertson.
	Well, one of the things he wants to investigate now, he says, is priorities to investigate allegations of rape.
	Rape that may be systematic and rape that's being assisted, he said, by the distribution of Viagra.
	Viagra-like products.
	You're no agenda show at work, ladies and gentlemen.
	That was from...
	Show 305, 2011.
	So, and listen to who's... This is the propaganda twins, Brolf and Nick.
	Yeah.
	So, it's just part of the narrative they always bring in, I guess.
	It's in the playbook.
	What's interesting to me, you mentioned Poland, mistreated by the Russians.
	But Poland is pretty much universally hated by all Jews in Congress, particularly the muckety-mucks and the higher-ups.
	Remember maybe a couple of years back, Poland has to repent for the concentration camps, and they were all pissed off at Poland?
	Do you remember that?
	I I remember all of it, because that's the reason that Poland, and to this day as far as I know, isn't one of those visa-free... Right, right.
	You can come to the United States, but not the Polish.
	No, no, no, you gotta apply to get in.
	Yeah, that's what it is, exactly.
	And that's because of the Jewish members of Congress who are irked at the Polish, and the Polish are seen as... I remember this when I was a kid.
	The Polish were seen as the guys who coddled Hitler.
	They weren't, they never were on Hitler's side.
	And they didn't, but they, you know, give us your Jews.
	Okay.
	That's a great opener.
	Well, it's interesting.
	Is Poland not repenting by doing this?
	They've done as much repenting as they can.
	I mean, this is a good example, but I don't believe that this is part of their repenting.
	I think this is just them.
	They don't like the Russians.
	No, but I mean, shouldn't the pissed off members of Congress recognize this?
	The way they see it is the following.
	Hey, the Poles don't like the Russians.
	It's got nothing to do with us.
	Right.
	No, this is pretty, this is a bunch of stubborn people.
	Because they get no props.
	They get no props for taking everybody in.
	No, no, no good.
	Nowhere do I see, I don't see Poland good anywhere.
	No, it's not good enough.
	It really isn't.
	You know, Poland should at least give a thumbs up or something from Ursula.
	Yeah.
	Two thumbs up.
	No.
	No, then they're also kind of fussy.
	They're a little bit like Hungary when it comes to like, uh, you know, going along with the program, whatever we say goes, uh, they, you know, we can, that's what Hungary did just recently.
	They were this guy's bitching on this clip that I had, which is, uh, no, that's Hungary.
	They're using their veto.
	Well, if you have a veto, Well, you're never supposed to use it.
	If you have a veto and you want to use it, you use it.
	That's what vetoes are.
	Yeah.
	Dirty Poles using their veto.
	They use a veto too, and so does the Hungarians.
	One of our producers sent a couple of clips from the Mark Ames show, I think.
	I don't know if you heard those but I I listened to him and I thought it was kind of interesting because it's they're talking to a reporter and I can't actually find who it is but who's in is I think he is an m5m reporter but he's or was and he's in Kiev and he talks about the hotel that the whole media is in You know, it's apparently a nice swanky hotel, of course.
	And this was always during the Iraq War, remember?
	They all were in the same hotel.
	Right, and CNN was in the basement with the green screen.
	Or back then, the blue screen.
	But it was really eye-opening about what is not being reported on, particularly as it pertains to things the Ukrainian army is doing.
	Let's see if we like what we're hearing here.
	Where did you stay?
	I mean, like, did you stay in a hotel in Kyiv, or did you stay in... Notice he says Kyiv.
	...somebody's apartment, or how'd you work that?
	In Kyiv I stayed at a hotel.
	I'll tell a little anecdote about the Premier Palace Hotel, where a lot of journalists were staying at.
	Um, I came down one morning, uh, from my room and there was like a hundred plus soldiers and police just like camped out on the ground floor of the hotel.
	Um, and they were everywhere throughout the hotel.
	And it's, it's a kind of a fancy hotel.
	Um, and they were like hanging out, you know, sitting on the grand piano, sitting, smoking cigars in like the smoking room.
	It was like an occupation.
	I couldn't, I had no idea what was going on.
	I asked the receptionist what's going on and he's like, Oh, it's no problem.
	off the front lines, I mean, you could smell it on.
	They smell like dirty laundry, stale cigarette smoke.
	And I asked the receptionist what's going on and he's like, "Oh, it's no problem.
	They just want to talk to somebody who's here." And Ukrainian forces had put up these banners in the hotel showing what I gathered was the ownership structure of the And basically they had come to seize this property in a very dramatic way with a large force.
	And I could not figure out at all what was going on.
	I asked Ukrainian people that I knew what's going on here.
	And, you know, one woman told me that, hey, this is typical for Ukraine.
	Like, sometimes properties change hands without any, you know, paperwork being signed or without any deals.
	Raiders.
	Raids.
	I mean, yeah.
	And you use muscle.
	You use... That's where, like, a lot of these Azov and right sector guys, you know, that was their job before the war in Donbas started, was working with oligarchs to physically seize other oligarchs' properties.
	So this clip tells me a couple of things, and I do have short follow-ups.
	One, the mainstream is not reporting, but duh, surprise, surprise.
	Two, the European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, the whole world is really abusing this country.
	It's just a shithole.
	It really is.
	And I hate to say it, and not for the people, but it's been so corrupt for so long, mainly by us.
	That, you know, it's a free-for-all now.
	Now everyone's just grabbing everything they can.
	We'll just take this hotel.
	We'll take this.
	And it's the way it always goes.
	There's no ownership.
	There's no paperwork.
	We just take it.
	We say it's ours.
	And of course, the M5M is not reporting on this.
	I gather there were a lot of other Western journalists in this hotel.
	I mean, none of them pursued that story?
	Yeah, there were a lot of Western journalists there from major publications.
	And yeah, like I said, I couldn't find anything about it afterwards.
	Hmm.
	Wow.
	Yeah, well, you end up with a bullet.
	You know, you got to report on this stuff.
	Could be that.
	It's basically, it's that level of corruption where you, you know, it's like reporting on the drug, you know, one of the worst jobs as a journalist is reporting on the drug cartels in Mexico.
	Yeah.
	You know, you get shot eventually.
	You gotta be careful, you know?
	And so this is the same thing.
	It seems to me, I mean, that's why you don't do reporting and it also the mainstream media itself at the editorial level, you know, they've decided that they're going to have a united front and a united front doesn't account for stories like this.
	No.
	No, you can't run that story because it takes away from our united front.
	We're all pro-Ukraine.
	Let's put a little flag for our Twitter icon and the whole thing.
	No, you can't do this.
	And so it's just basically a corrupt system.
	The mainstream media is as corrupt as the entire Ukraine government.
	Sure.
	And with that, I'd like to remind everybody that this is a Value for Value podcast.
	You will never hear this.
	Here's evidence.
	You'll never hear about any of this on any mainstream M5M reporting.
	Don't hang around Newsmax or Fox News too long either.
	You're not going to get that.
	We can do this work because of the producers who give us time, talent, and treasure.
	And therefore, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the drug cartel reporting, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. John C. Dvorak.
	In the morning to you, Mr. Adam McCreary.
	Also in the morning to all ships that see boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and knights out there.
	And in the morning to all of our trolls in the troll room who have been hanging out patiently.
	Although, I don't know how many we had earlier.
	There's one less because I kicked somebody out.
	So let's see what we have right now.
	Come on, trolls.
	Put those hands up.
	I see you scurrying away.
	Yeah, this is feeling better.
	2,232.
	2,232.
	This is good.
	Now we're starting.
	This is... This is... This is more like a Sunday should be.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	Exactly right.
	Although... Now, the high was much higher than that.
	I know.
	Why do you say although?
	Why do you... Although.
	Although.
	What?
	We're pushing 3,000.
	I know!
	We'll get back there.
	I have faith.
	I have faith.
	The trolls hang out to, uh, well, to troll, obviously.
	And a lot of people like doing that.
	It's completely anonymous.
	You go in there, you troll, you can troll for good, troll for bad, do as you wish.
	Um, you can do it during the live shows that are on noagendastream.com 24 hours, seven days a week, the best podcast discovery network in the universe.
	Uh, we like everyone to hang out at trollroom.io.
	You've got the chat there.
	You can listen, um, and troll.
	That's exactly what it's for.
	Or you can go ahead and you can subscribe or follow John and I on our Mastodon instance, which is John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com or Adam at noagendasocial.com.
	I heard, by the way, through the grapevine from the dudes named Ben, that there is indeed some talk inside President Trump's Truth Social to federate Across the Fetterverse.
	That would be a smart move.
	Since they're also using Mastodon.
	Well, yes, it's a smart move, but it really depends because if we federate, just as an example, if we federate with Truth Social, the issue is disk space, the way Mastodon works.
	Because the Fetterverse feed comes in, there's so much on images, etc.
	Oh, image.
	So, we'll see.
	I mean, we'll see.
	There's ways to limit it.
	It could all fall apart.
	It could also blow the whole thing up.
	It could collapse.
	It could collapse the whole thing.
	The Fediverse!
	The Fediverse is collapsing, ladies and gentlemen!
	Anything could happen.
	Well, it's a fun experiment.
	I remember when I was a kid, we had something called the Fediverse.
	Yes, the Fediverse.
	Tell us about it, Gramps.
	The Fediverse.
	And that's a good, you know, those are good accounts to follow.
	It's just, you know, more and more I find myself just saying, yeah, follow us.
	I'm Adam at NoahJennerSocial.com.
	I don't give it, you know, I don't talk about getting a link or anything.
	People know about it now.
	It's getting out there.
	But there's still... I think even the Magatards are probably not stupid in the Fediverse.
	If you're in the Fediverse, I don't think you're stupid.
	But maybe you are.
	I don't know.
	You don't know that.
	I don't know that.
	I don't.
	Big thanks for his talent to... Oh, yes!
	Sir Paul Couture, who in fact is the artist who set up the original and the still current No Agenda Art Generator.
	NoAgendaArtGenerator.com.
	The original was also done with, I always forget his name, and I don't even know if he listens to this show or not, Randy Asher.
	Now what did Randy set up?
	Did he just set up the original?
	The original, there was one before this.
	Oh gosh, I don't even remember that.
	Well, you take a look at when this started, this showed at some show number, and before that there was another operation, another website that collected the original, the first art that we started putting up.
	And Randy Asher and Paul put together that, and then Paul put together this, the fancier one.
	Right.
	piece of artwork that went up on NoahArtGenerator.com was episode 207.
	Yeah.
	And it was you and me in the car, and you apparently are blowing into the breathalyzer to get the car started.
	Oh, okay.
	Yeah, that's because you're the one that's drunk and I have to cover for you.
	Yeah, there you go.
	No, you're behind the wheel.
	Oh, okay, well.
	So Sir Paul Couture sent, now first of all, we chose his art Because I think it was because it was the best not because we're throwing him a bone.
	Correct.
	It was the best art for the episode.
	It was also cheesecake.
	It partially it was also stolen as comic strip blogger was happy to point out to me.
	But Was it really because the microphones, the hair on my mic, the lack of hair on your mic, and also notice you're shorter than me, which I think is appropriate.
	Yeah, I am.
	You're 6'1".
	6'1".
	5, I'm 6'1".
	6'1".
	But it did skirt the rules, and we did not check it on the way out.
	Because the girl and the palm and the surfboard... Yeah, I would assume that he didn't draw that, but there's just a microphone with the wig on it.
	And I thought it was appropriate.
	You said, oh, the hair, you know, I said, well, microphones don't have hair.
	I didn't say that, but I'm thinking it.
	Microphones don't have hair, but they could wear a wig and so can Adam.
	And I'm sure when he's older, he'll be wearing one.
	I don't think so.
	By the way, in those pictures Brunetti sent me, your hair's still rocking, brother.
	It's not too bad.
	It's a light.
	Hey, I'm a hair expert.
	I have hair.
	Yes, I have hair.
	Yes, you do.
	And it looks good.
	This is a compliment.
	I'm not bullshitting you.
	Well, thank you.
	Thank you very much.
	It's meant to make you feel good because it's true.
	Yeah.
	You're like, you're like my real wife.
	I can't say anything nice.
	We were at this place, it was out in the middle of nowhere.
	This is called Aubergine Soleil.
	It's a, uh, Soleil.
	It's a one-star Michelin.
	And so the parking lot looks like a used car lot from the Mercedes-Benz company.
	I'll bet.
	Yeah.
	I've never seen so many.
	Eddie Maybox?
	There wasn't anything else though.
	Eddie Maybox?
	Eddie Maybox?
	My box?
	No, it was not that high end.
	Dana left his at home, huh?
	Dana left his at home?
	No, Dana drives around a giant 450 diesel.
	A 450?
	A 450?
	It can tow a trailer from a, you know, it's like basically a truck.
	It's a truck.
	Yeah.
	It's a truck.
	And it's this giant thing.
	And he, and it also does, he got a bunch of, he showed some, he's got some gimmicky thing, you push a button, all the lights go nuts.
	But It's like he said the guy freaked out because he has the valets had valet at the valet.
	So this is the guy who just freaked out.
	What am I supposed to do with this?
	It's like a mile up in the air.
	I mean, it's, it's unbelievably big of this, this truck, you know, and he drives it everywhere.
	He does what his drives.
	He drives it into town.
	He drives it down to LA.
	I don't know what the deal is with him and this joke.
	I know for sure now!
	Dana Brunetti is... ULTRA TARD!
	He's got the Ultra Tard Mobile.
	He crushes Priuses in his way.
	Yeah, and he definitely likes to smash things.
	Got another Tesla.
	Tesla's the furthest thing from his mind.
	So we're very appreciative and nice to see art from Sir Paul Couture.
	Now, what was the issue?
	Yeah, we didn't like any of the other stuff.
	No, we did.
	Well, not good.
	I mean, the one I liked the most, which we both agreed was just, it might not hit, was the Green Helmets by Capitalist Agenda, where it's Janet Yellen with inflation bopping off her helmet.
	I loved that one.
	It didn't look enough like Yellen to me.
	Well, I used it as the pre-art this morning.
	I came across it again, like, this is too funny.
	So, and then there's... I like the... Yumski.
	Yumski.
	Yumski.
	We both like Yumski.
	Which is, uh, like a Russian bear-like soldier, I guess, uh, getting ready, is licking his chock.
	Kossak.
	Kossak, I'm sorry.
	Getting ready to eat a baby, which is on his plate.
	He's got the knife and fork and the naked baby.
	Even, even for us, that was going too far, but that was the one we liked the most, that we laughed the hardest about.
	Yeah, it was very funny.
	Uh, it wasn't much else.
	I mean, I did use, uh, again, Paul Couture's, uh, Pride No Agenda, the disco ball, which I thought was well done.
	And, uh, and so I used that on the newsletter.
	Um, there was some other stuff that was, you know, it was here and there, but yeah.
	Okay.
	Did everyone think, was everyone talking about Mona Lisa?
	Because I, I don't know, Mona Lisa, was that?
	No, the Mona Lisa is because we talked about the guy throwing a pie at her, and then you saw Parker Pauly's Mona Lisa with the two cupcakes for the breasts.
	Yeah, I thought that, I didn't like it.
	No, you didn't, you didn't not, you didn't, you didn't think it was good.
	You didn't think it was appropriate.
	No, it was not appropriate.
	It's very lewd.
	A lot of people were disappointed we didn't have a Mona Lisa art.
	That was just the vibe I picked up.
	I don't know why.
	You know, if we used the Mona Lisa art, we would have gotten a note from Comic Strip Blogger.
	It's stolen art!
	You stole Leonardo da Vinci art!
	Everyone knows this is a real painting.
	Congratulations to Sir Paul Couture.
	Thank you to all the artists for putting up with us and accepting the feedback.
	It's only to make a better product.
	But all of your time, talent, and treasure is highly appreciated and is always on display in a Podcastic 2.0 app.
	And I believe as of Thursday, when we go live, there will be a new bat signal built into a couple of the new apps.
	So you can not only subscribe to No Agenda in the app, but it will notify you when we fire off the bat signal and go live.
	And I think Podverse... Live!
	Podverse and CurioCaster will, and there's a chat, you know, you enter into the chat room.
	It's all the same.
	It's just, it's within the app.
	So we're excited about this working because technically it's a miracle that it does.
	Newpodcastapps.com and for the art, noagendaartgenerator.com for everyone who likes to follow along during the live stream.
	And now we thank our executive and associate executive producers for episode 1,457.
	And we kick it off.
	Oh, there's a lot of blue on the screen here today with Craig Lakis from Hearst, Texas.
	Hearst?
	Where's Hearst?
	Hearst?
	I don't know Hearst, Texas.
	That's where the Hearst shifter comes in.
	I think they make it there.
	What's a Hearst shifter?
	Is that... It's a famous shifting stick that you used to put in your hot rod.
	Oh, a shift!
	Oh, really?
	Yeah, the Hearst.
	There's a big, there's a big rugged thing.
	Is that Hearst Shifter?
	Interesting.
	I don't know if they make it there, but it's, it wouldn't surprise me because everything that's Texas, like the new, in New Brownsfeld is where they made the Brownsfeld Grill.
	So I think they name a lot of stuff after their towns.
	Yeah, we're cool out here.
	Well, Instant Night, $1,000 long-time listener in need of a de-douching and joining the roundtable.
	You've been de-douched.
	Asking for new business karma as we launch a new IT managed services provider for small businesses in Dallas, Fort Worth, Texas.
	Night name, Sir Nerdworks.
	Oh my goodness.
	Sir Nerdworks, well after your night at Sir Nerdworks, hit me up.
	I got a buddy in Dallas who's in the same business.
	Maybe you guys can work together or firebomb each other.
	I don't know.
	Congratulations and thank you very much for your support of the show and this is indeed an instant nighting, or instant night donations.
	Happy to give you your new business karma.
	Thank you again.
	You've got karma.
	Mark Hardwick is up.
	And he's also in Texas.
	He's in Aledo, Texas.
	Or they make the Alito shifter.
	666.66.
	Now, there's something here...
	I don't know if he's on the birthday list, but I specifically asked Eric to put him on it.
	Let me check.
	And he would have put this in yellow.
	And I think he's saying, I don't think so.
	Um, I, and this is belated 66th birthday.
	That's what the sixes are about.
	ITME writes last week was my 66th birthday.
	So here is your 666.66.
	It's my second donation.
	I need to be de-douched.
	That we can do.
	You've been de-douched.
	It will also move me to knight status.
	Please knight me as Mark of Parker County, Texas.
	Uh, keep up the great work.
	Uh, one second.
	Last week.
	Okay, so it was last week.
	He was not on the list.
	No, I didn't think he was.
	That's not fun.
	Let's see why he's not on the list.
	Back office issues.
	And does he need any... He doesn't need a karma or anything?
	He's good with his... I think his knighthood thing will be fine.
	As long as he got his de-douching.
	Yeah, he got his de-douching.
	Troy Whitmore is in Toronto.
	Born in 61, turning 61 today on a show day.
	It seemed perfect time to reserve my... Another birthday, I bet she's not on there.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	You're right!
	Oh man, I got a lot of work to do while I'm reading.
	I'll read.
	Okay, please do.
	It seemed the perfect time to reserve my seat at the round table.
	This donation of 800 Canadian dollars, generously accepted at par, is long overdue.
	I've looked forward to each show since the beginning!
	It's easy to look out at today's world and think to yourself, I must be high.
	Thank you for providing a corrective lens for an insane world.
	Please knight me.
	Sir, I must be high.
	Which should be a comma in there.
	Sir, I must be high.
	Posting our first no agenda, I must be high Toronto meet up on Friday, June 10th at McSorley's wonderful saloon and grill.
	I've been to that place as a matter of fact.
	Outlets details in the no agenda meet-up page.
	No jingles, no karma.
	Sincerely, Troy Whitmore.
	Wow, I am really high.
	Now, typically the $800 donation, which is Scandinavian dolaroos, would be listed as 800.
	Yeah.
	On the spreadsheet.
	Is this a change?
	My experience with this phenomenon is that he can take that credit himself because he's doing the bookkeeping, but Unless it jumps somebody into a category, it usually doesn't get listed as the Canadian amount.
	Okay.
	You know what I mean?
	Somebody donates $290, they get bumped.
	But also, holy crap, $800 is only $610 of ours?
	That's what it came out to.
	Holy crap.
	I know.
	It's time to go shopping in Canada.
	Paul Scharf is from Eagle River, Wisconsin.
	60494.
	Oh, this is interesting.
	This donation is a celebration of the 28th wedding anniversary to my wife, Shelly.
	And they never had a fight!
	Since 60494, she's been my rock, and I want to tell her how much I love her.
	We have four great children and a house full of puppies that are proof she's the greatest mom and wife, and they're all rescues.
	We are on this journey together, forever and always, Paul Scharf, in the morning.
	Aww, isn't that beautiful?
	Yeah.
	Uh, Devin Wood in Elko, Nevada, 333.34.
	In the morning, Adam and John, we got a birthday on here.
	June 4th commemorates 22 trips around the sun this year.
	And true to my word, in my last note, I am back to join the others in the knighthood.
	A few years ago, I dropped out of college after a year realizing I hated it.
	And that there was money and a future to be made pursuing honest work.
	By God's grace and with a lot of love for my family, I have now a career path I hope one day can suggest a family of my own here or start a family of my own here in Elko.
	For that reason, I would like to be knighted as Sir Devon, the Silver State Dropout.
	You've earned these $1,000 for a simple reason.
	The people who are running this, ruining this world, are running the world into the ground.
	Sorry.
	I have no greater desire than to see the rest of us living wretched lives, eating bugs, and living in pods.
	For guys like me to be happy, to them, is angering and intolerable.
	It makes me happy to listen to you two, and I don't need to tell you that you do the same for so many more people than just me.
	For that reason, John and Adam, I am proud to support you two and look forward to the many shows ahead.
	I'd like to have grilled pork tenderloin and sake at the round table.
	Okay, cool.
	What kind of sake are we going to get this time?
	I got the hot sake.
	Hot sake in a box.
	No, whatever you do, for God's sake, no.
	Why not?
	What's wrong with hot sake?
	It's the cheapest crap sake you can get.
	It's designed to be heated up so you can choke it down.
	You want some Zanko, or Zankyo, Super 7.
	That's the sake you want.
	Okay.
	Understood.
	I could have made this a longer name, but everyone knows what it is.
	It's alright.
	You got it.
	I feel shamed.
	I don't care what kind of sake as long as it's good.
	Yeah it was super... We got it.
	just say super seven will they understand that yeah yeah probably super seven sake i'll never have hot sake in a box ever again i feel like an idiot okay i don't care what kind of sake as long as it's good yeah it was super we got it the super seven for jingles i'll take uh pigs in human clothing the alex jones i am living in the twilight zone and i'm not I don't know that one.
	I do, I have it.
	If you still have it, and I'd be willing for a full Sharpton Respect, finalized with a good cover for everybody.
	Until next time, gents, best regards.
	as soon to be Sir Devon.
	Fear is freedom.
	Subjugation is liberation.
	Contradiction is truth.
	Those are the facts of this world.
	And you will all surrender to them.
	You pigs in human clothing.
	I'm living in a twilight zone.
	We'll be right back.
	.
	Thank you.
	He's getting lunch at Chipotle!
	The tortise in the race.
	Kim Kardashian, Sigournoy Weaver, R-E-S-P-I-C-T.
	They're all jitty.
	R-E-S-P-I-C-T.
	There's no real conflict.
	Resist.
	We must.
	Resist.
	We much.
	We must.
	And we will much.
	About.
	That.
	You've got.
	Karma.
	Always fun playing the full version.
	John Knowles is in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and I looked for a note.
	I have a note from January 25th from him, but nothing current.
	And he sends in the ever so popular 333.33 donation.
	We appreciate that.
	Thank you very much, John.
	Hey, doesn't he get a double karma?
	Oh, you know, I'm sorry.
	I did not have that.
	I'm dropping the ball here.
	Double Karma Turbo.
	Here we go.
	You've got... Pharma.
	Mark Minatoglio.
	Minatoglio in Dripping Springs.
	333.
	He's in Texas.
	De-douche me.
	Okay.
	You've been de-douched.
	Mark in Dripping Springs, Texas.
	That's a note.
	Dripping Springs, baby.
	Drive through it all the time.
	We should hook up.
	We need a Dripping Springs meetup.
	Yeah.
	Dripping Springs is on our way into Austin and on our way out of Austin.
	Thank you, Mark.
	What are you going to Austin for?
	To get my hair done.
	They don't have a person in the world, in Fredericksburg, in the hill country, that can cut hair?
	Well, yes, of course.
	I'm glad you asked.
	But, as you know, I've been held hostage by my hair for most of my life, my adult life.
	I have complete control of my hair now.
	It is my hair to do with what I want.
	And I like Johanna to cut my hair.
	And it gives me an excuse to go to the P.O.
	Box, go to Dr. Ron, pick up some meds, all that stuff.
	So, it's a good... Johanna or Johanna?
	Johanna.
	Hmm.
	Yeah, it's Johanna.
	She trained under Pierre.
	In Paris.
	Kyle Rainey is also in Texas.
	Texans showing the support today in Canyon 26607.
	He says this is my special birthday donation.
	It's Texas Day.
	Yeah.
	In honor of my 26th birthday on Tuesday, 6-7, one step closer to knighthood, which I plan to secure before my wedding next month, as I couldn't subject my bride to the shame of not marrying a knighted man.
	For my birthday, please mention The Big Dumb Podcast, which is available on all Podcasting 2.0 platforms.
	You can use the search.
	May I please have a biscuit for my birthday, a noodle gun, I love bugs, as well as yak karma for the wedding.
	Love is lit, thanks for all you do, Kyle.
	They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
	I'm gonna shoot you in the face with my noodle gun, you racist piece of shit.
	I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
	I love bugs!
	Bugs, bugs, bugs!
	Mmm.
	Thank you.
	Tastes like poop.
	You've got... Parma.
	Blake, quote-unquote, in Chicago.
	23456.
	As always, thanks to you both.
	Uh... Adam and John for continuing to pull back the curtain.
	We had a great meetup last night in Chicago on the beach with 15 local slaves, including keepers, dames, knights, a baronet, and a human resource.
	No spooks!
	Ha!
	Yeah, right.
	There's more than ten, there's always a spook.
	No spooks and nobody got shot.
	That's a plus in Chicago.
	It was excellent.
	Any local listener who doesn't want to be triggered or held to blame should keep a lookout for further meetups this summer.
	Coming this summer.
	Blake.
	Anonymous and Saskatoon.
	Canada, Canada.
	RoveDucks222.22.
	Hello, says Anonymous.
	Please give my... Hello.
	Hello.
	Hi.
	Please give my studly... We should do it like NPR.
	Hi.
	Hi.
	Please give my studly husband, Ryan No Last Name, he knows who he is, a de-douching.
	You've been de-douched.
	And in parentheses it says this is a switcheroo.
	Huh?
	So we change anonymous to anonymous?
	No, to Ryan No Last Name.
	Oh, okay.
	Okay, well let me do that now.
	Okay.
	I'll continue reading.
	As well as a biscuit for his 40th birthday, June 3rd.
	He's on the list.
	I love the show.
	Thanks for all you do.
	Karma, please.
	And then at the very end, this brings up an interesting point.
	If you're going to say, please keep anonymous, Don't put it at the end of the note.
	Because we read these things in real time, so the spreadsheet is put together for us.
	We take it, put it in front of us, and read, read, read, read, read.
	Like pros.
	Like pros, by the way.
	Like, we do cold reads, like, as best we can.
	And sometimes we're really good.
	And then you get to this, ah, anonymous, we already said the name of this person, and blah, blah, blah.
	You gotta go back, edit it out.
	So that's a faux pas, a faux pas, and it gives me something to complain about.
	And you don't want that.
	You don't want me just complaining left and right.
	Okay, so a biscuit for his 40th birthday, and a karma.
	They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
	You've got karma.
	You can go with this one.
	Alex Green, Greenfield Park, New York.
	Two hundred dollars and one cent.
	Greetings from... Shawongunk.
	Shawongunk.
	I think it's Shawongunk.
	They send in a meetup report.
	I think it's Shawongunk.
	Shawongunk.
	You don't, you don't pronounce the K. I think it's Shawongunk.
	Shawongunk.
	Greetings from the Shawongunk meetup in the Wallkill, New York.
	Please credit this donation to Duck... Chuck the Dog.
	Oh, okay.
	Switcheroo.
	Chuck the Dog?
	Yep.
	Chuck the dog.
	Hey, she's a rescue.
	He's a good boy, but he tried to eat the brisket and pork.
	This is from the meetup.
	We hope with his eventual knighthood he will be satisfied with the mutton.
	Justin and his family hosted us graciously with barbecue and beer at their inn.
	This place is amazing.
	Original house is from 1796 and the location is Pastoral.
	Pastoral?
	And gorgeous.
	Anyone looking for an awesome spot to stay in the Hudson Valley area should check it out at InAtTheRidge.com.
	InAtTheRidge.com.
	Take this note as our invitation for all residents of New Yorkistan to join us next time.
	Patriot karma and respect for all, please.
	I think we can do both of those.
	Do I have a short... Yes.
	R-E-S-P-I-C-T You've got... Karma.
	And last on the list is Zoomer.
	Zoomer Daniel.
	Zoomer.
	He's in Los Angeles, California.
	He donated $200.
	I want to thank him for that.
	Good morning, OGs.
	I'm from the cult city of LA.
	My gratitude for you guys is immense.
	I pray to God he helps you find your exit strategy dead in the water.
	Much love, Zoomer Daniel.
	Jingles, de-douching, and some Al Sharpton.
	You've been de-douched.
	There's no real conflict!
	There you go.
	And that's our list of executive and associate executive producers for show 1450... what is it?
	757.
	I want to thank each and every one of them for making this all possible, and especially for their generosity.
	Working towards show 1500 and our 15th anniversary all taking place this year.
	Yeah.
	Probably just before the midterms.
	Before the demise.
	Shall be interesting.
	Thank you.
	Most of it's in October.
	I know the anniversary is in October.
	That's before the midterms.
	1500 should be sometime after the election.
	No, I thought it came really close to October 28th.
	They're within a few weeks, but there's an offset.
	Oh.
	There is?
	Which grows, I think, one show every year or something like that.
	Oh, we're like a leap year.
	Yeah.
	Thank you to these executive and associate executive producers.
	Highly appreciated.
	These are credits we don't just hand out.
	You have to earn them.
	And you do that by sending your value back at these levels.
	And that gives you the title.
	And you are entitled, in fact, to use these anywhere that they are recognized.
	We already discussed IMDB.
	That's where you'll find Dana Brunetti.
	But you'll find many others in there as well.
	Your LinkedIn profile.
	Put it on your T-shirt, for all I care.
	This is important.
	Let people know that you are an actual producer of a real media property.
	No joke.
	We'll vouch for you if anyone questions it.
	If you'd like to learn more, go to our website.
	Thank you again for your time, talents, and treasure for producing episode 1,457.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Order! Order!
	Shut up, slave!
	Shut up, slave!
	Just a quick little 70s throwback.
	A little fun stuff to listen to, to get us in the mood for the Great Reset.
	And the propaganda that's been going on for 50-5-0 years.
	Hit it.
	Wait.
	Set up.
	This is from a very popular TV show in the 70s.
	Not just in the United States, but I recall watching it in the Netherlands as well with subtitles.
	Mork and Mindy.
	Mork and Mindy.
	Mork was of course played by Robin Williams.
	Now did you also know Robin Williams?
	I know Mimi knew Robin Williams.
	Yeah, no, he was over at the house actually.
	So was he a libtard back in the day?
	Uh, he was always kind of a libtard.
	Yeah, I figured as much.
	But he was a very depressed, depressive guy.
	Uh, but he, but he was, he's like, he had a, literally had one of those switches, you know, you, he goes from just being morose, is that a better word?
	Well, okay.
	He's always morose, very morose.
	I don't know.
	It's like Eeyore.
	Right, but then the switch goes on and then he becomes an insane guy.
	You light up the place.
	Yeah, yeah.
	This is an episode from September 16th, 1979, and for those who have never seen this before, Mork is an alien from Ork, the planet Ork, and he lands in an egg.
	I know, it's 70s TV.
	I know it's hard for some millennials.
	He's like, what?
	Uh, and he, of course, experiences the world as an alien.
	Uh, and he's very, uh, it's, it's, it's amusing.
	It was an amusing show and, and he, and he crash landed in Boulder, Colorado, of all places.
	Uh, and so Mindy is, uh, took him in and they're all aware that he's an alien, but he is very concerned with the 1970s.
	Yes.
	Uh, Pam Dauber, played by Pam Dauber.
	Correct.
	Correct.
	And the scuttlebutt was always, did he ever go to bed with her?
	Oh, do you think?
	Do you think?
	It's open for debate and no one has ever made a conclusion that she won't say.
	Hmm.
	That was Mark Harmon's wife?
	Pam Dauber?
	Wasn't it?
	I don't know.
	I don't remember.
	Maybe I'm wrong.
	She was single at the time, so... Fair game.
	Fair game, Mork.
	Here he is discovering, as he just heard on the news, about the energy crisis in the 1970s.
	Is something serious?
	It's just the world as we know it.
	It's coming to an end.
	It's about time.
	The world is coming to an end.
	The world, as we know it.
	The world, as we know it, is coming to an end.
	Right.
	You see, I went downtown to buy a book, The Life and Hard Times of Princess Raniere of Monaco.
	And there, plastered over every magazine and newspaper was, Energy Crisis!
	But don't panic.
	Don't panic.
	Remain calm.
	Energy crisis.
	Big deal.
	Big deal.
	It is a big deal, Mr. Smarty Pants Republican.
	Unless we find an alternative source of energy for oil, we have to conserve.
	And that's why I was out making darn sure we conserve.
	Oh, Mork, what were you doing?
	Well, I shut out all the street lights in downtown Boulder.
	Took out all the traffic lights, too.
	I'm gonna kind of miss them, though.
	Red, yellow, green, such festive colors.
	They were so pretty.
	People used to stop their cars and watch them change.
	Mork, relax, okay?
	Relax?
	Relax?
	How can I relax when there's a world beyond?
	I love Lucy.
	Don't you understand?
	We're running out of fossil fuels.
	There are only more dinosaurs dying and dinosaurs still in residuals.
	Don't you understand?
	It's a whole different world.
	And pretty soon, a hundred years from now, they'll be drilling into cemeteries looking for oil.
	How'd you like us to concede the advertising slogans now?
	Put a relative in your tank and then have testimonials.
	Hey, I got 20 miles to the Gatling using my T.S.
	Morp, there is an energy crisis and in 50 or 60 years we probably won't have any more oil.
	A lot of people believe that the oil companies are just using scare tactics so they can hike the prices.
	Somebody's getting very rich at our expense.
	I don't understand.
	Why would someone else want to get rich at someone else's expense?
	Let me put it to you this way.
	Some of us believe the people who own the oil are shaking down the rest of the world.
	Oh, that's why they call shakes for the booty.
	As long as the oil companies keep backing the politicians, well... So what's so funny about that?
	Nothing.
	Sound familiar?
	So, uh, this is interesting for a couple of reasons.
	One, uh, is that MeTV and Television Land and a number of these networks, they're genuine networks, uh, Me TV having about five outlets are all on over-the-air television.
	If you have an antenna and you put it up onto your 4K TV, you will get a lot of shows.
	And a lot of these shows are from the 60s.
	They're playing I Love Lucy's, the 60s, 70s.
	They just started running WKRP in Cincinnati.
	I'm living on the air in Cincinnati.
	Which, you watch these shows and the WKRP episode, sometimes it's riveting because it's like, this is interesting because you can start to see the reruns of today's memes and the bullcrap and what you just played is a good example.
	And I don't know that these, and the people who have over the air and they usually don't, you can cut your cable in some parts of the country because the over the air can be over a hundred channels of this sort of stuff.
	And it's old, but it's relevant.
	And sometimes you look at it and go, why can't they do TV like this?
	This is good stuff.
	This is very funny.
	It's compelling.
	The jokes are better.
	They had better joke writers.
	It's not politically correct.
	So it makes it a little edgier.
	I think it has some societal effect.
	People have sent me over the years, many times, it's too long to play because it's like a five or six minute scene.
	I think it's either the sales guy from WKRP, I don't think it's the weather guy, but one of them goes off on how the world is a new world order controlled by the Trilateral Commission, like the entire thing all the way through.
	You know, it was only missing the Bilderbergers.
	By the way, hey there, congratulations Luke from WeAreChange.org.
	He's the only guy that's out there, as far as I know, in D.C.
	at the Bilderberg conference, streaming live, showing the hotel.
	Gotta love him for doing that.
	I wanted, by the way, I wanted the attendees list is published and I had a copy of it.
	I have it too.
	I was going to go over some of the names on it, but unfortunately I didn't do that for today's show, but it's very, it's kind of interesting.
	Some of the people they've got, I believe, but there's a lot of the same old, same old Kissinger's there.
	Eric Schmidt is there.
	Yeah.
	There's a lot of regulars.
	I have the, I have the list here.
	Good.
	Let's go through it.
	Okay.
	I'll just give the titles.
	We don't need to do all the names unless they recognize them immediately.
	Former Chairman of Deutsche Bank, Deputy Secretary, Department of the Treasury, current.
	José Manuel Alvarez, Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union.
	Then you get Sam Altman, the CEO of Open AI.
	Ann Applebaum, staff writer for The Atlantic, who doesn't know her.
	Social Democrat Party member, I think that's from maybe Denmark.
	Director General of UNESCO.
	By the way, before you go on, so the Atlantic was mentioned in one of the earlier clips.
	The Atlantic is pretty much owned by Jobs, Lorraine Jobs.
	This has become kind of an oddly corrupt publication so far.
	Not corrupt in the sense that they're, in the old-fashioned sense, but in the sense of being stooges for the government messaging.
	You mean a group of stupid people?
	Yeah, and do you think it's, I don't know, but they would have the skill set, I think, at the quote-unquote agency to like cajole somebody like her.
	Oh, yes.
	She's also a part of the Global Citizen outfit, which includes a lot of the same people who are at Bilderberg.
	And that's who Mika, that's where Mika interviewed Queen Ursula, was at the Global Citizen event.
	So this is all tied in, and at Bilderberg, CIA Director William Burns, just to complete your thought there.
	Of course, we also have the media there, the chairman and CEO of Axel Springer, a huge media group in Germany.
	Oh, Monster.
	Monster is correct.
	We have many bankers, the Center for New American Security.
	We have the CEO of Pfizer.
	Of course, Borla is going to be there to take his instructions.
	This is how we talk.
	The chairman of Heineken.
	Oh, there's the CEO of Palantir Technologies, who doesn't know them.
	Shocker.
	Spyware of the elites.
	Let's see what else is here.
	Oh!
	Thomas Lyssen, who is the chairman of DSM, who just merged with a Swiss company.
	I don't think we talked about it.
	These are the guys that used to be a chemical company in the Netherlands and they're now the 8 billion dollar leading producer of taste and texture for soy and plant-based food.
	So there's that.
	Shopify CEO.
	Editor-in-chief of The Economist.
	Oh yeah, what's her name?
	What's her name?
	Zanny.
	Is her name Zanny?
	Yeah, Zanny, Zados, Betos, something like that.
	Zanny.
	She's the one who ruined The Economist.
	We talk about, I always mention about this.
	Yeah, you do.
	Petraeus, who by the way is the chairman of KKR, Global Institute, whatever that means.
	Petraeus is at the meeting?
	Oh yeah.
	Petraeus was on the morning show today, the CBS morning show that runs on the weekends, talking about Ukraine with the, I don't know, I don't know what this guy's even, why this guy's even in any of these circles anymore.
	It hasn't been expunged as beyond me, but okay.
	In fact, the Democrat Party used to call him Petraeus.
	Petraeus, yeah.
	There's a couple other interesting people here.
	Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Mark Rutte.
	The Hudson Institute, of course, there's Eric Schmidt.
	Um, former CEO and chairman of Google.
	There's Kevin Scott, CTO of Microsoft.
	Yeah, man, the metaverse is going to help us take over those stupid people.
	It'll be easy.
	They'll be, uh, with the headsets, uh, uh, Peter Thiel, of course.
	Peter Thiel.
	What Peter Thiel's got to do with these guys is.
	Well, this Palantir is, you know, he's the.
	Oh, that's right.
	His, his deal.
	Yeah.
	He's in up to his neck.
	Emma.
	Oh yeah.
	Emma Walmsley, CEO of GlaxoSmithKline.
	Peter Winnick, President and CEO of ASML.
	These are the guys that make the lithography possible for chips.
	So these are movers and shakers.
	This is not just a bunch of dicks.
	Wouldn't you say?
	No, there's not a bunch of dicks.
	They're all high-end.
	We had high-end junkies on the last show.
	These are high-end dicks.
	High-end dicks and so it's it still remains to be seen whether this is an influential group that actually does moving and shaking or just likes to drink.
	Impossible and so Rutowski's out there reporting with his live stream and the first report that comes in last night He reported that, I forget which hotel it is, they're all holed up in a hotel in Washington, D.C., security's around, you know.
	So we got the live stream on the front gates, Washington security, see if we can see any of these Maybachs come in with somebody who's elites for the Bilderberg Conference.
	And you know what came in last night?
	A whole bunch of male prostitutes.
	To which I say, it's D.C.
	Hello?
	I think you can go in front of any hotel any night of the week and find male and female prostitutes going in.
	It's Sodom and Gomorrah there in DC.
	So we heard, we heard from, sorry?
	I was just thinking it's like, yeah.
	Yeah.
	What a great place.
	It's dynamite.
	So we, so that was the, the oil crisis, the energy crisis in, uh, and you know, on television in the late seventies, let's go to 2010.
	This show was around, we commented and this, this was just trending again.
	Uh, Tina sent it to me.
	And of course I recognized it immediately.
	This was the 2010 Superbowl commercial from 12 years ago.
	This preceded... I gotta tell you the punchline before I play it.
	This was the promise by Audi Volkswagen to produce the clean diesel engine vehicles.
	Which, of course, we later discovered was a huge scam.
	It almost bankrupted the company.
	People had to go.
	The huge fines, I think, are still being paid.
	And this is how they presented their green, clean diesel engine to the world.
	Okay, so it's 3708.
	Paper or plastic?
	Plastic.
	That's the magic word.
	Green police.
	You picked the wrong day to mess with the ecosystem, plastic boy.
	Battery!
	Battery.
	Let's go, take the house!
	Put the rind down!
	Sir, that's a compost infection!
	Whoa!
	Did you install these bulbs?
	No.
	Tragedy strikes tonight where a man has just been arrested for possession of an incandescent light bulb.
	What do you guys think about plastic bottles now?
	The water setting is at 105.
	You got a TDI here?
	Clean diesel.
	You're good to go, sir.
	Good afternoon, officers.
	Hey, are those Styrofoam cups you're drinking from?
	Yeah.
	Can you please step out of the car and put them on the hood?
	The green police.
	This is just so beautiful to see that they were just liars.
	Liars, like everyone else with all this green stuff.
	We gotta do this more often.
	Go back and see what they promised and what they actually delivered.
	In this case, it was a known scam from the get-go.
	Those little diesel engines, since I'd driven a few of them when they were the hottest, They went like a bat out of hell.
	Yeah, they were great because there was no limitation on them.
	They were just smoking hot.
	I wish I could still get one.
	I never believed in my life I'd ever drive a diesel that had that much power.
	I wish I could get one of those still.
	Although diesel, I thought when they were banning him and they're recalling him and taking him back.
	And I thought you could somehow get ahold of one.
	Cause those things really were fast.
	You'd have to go register to in a state where they didn't have to check the damn engine all the time.
	Cause it would fail.
	Yeah.
	But yeah, I mean, I would back in the day and Volvo had them Volkswagen had a lot of them had these little engines that were really amazing products.
	I think Mitsubishi, I had a Mitsubishi, what was that?
	It was a, in Europe, it was a Mitsubishi Gallant diesel, turbo diesel.
	And that was pretty impressive.
	I guess that was Mitsubishi and Dodge probably worked on that together.
	Uh, and I've always wanted to have, to own another diesel, but these days the prices, I mean, and I'd love to run a biodiesel, but the salad oil is more expensive than diesel now.
	Oh, it's unbelievable.
	Since we're on the topic, I do want to read a note from Steven C. You do want, you do want to read it.
	He had a, I didn't know that you could do this, because I knew they would pass through, but I didn't know you could actually get a hold of one to drive around, which was... I want to give personal experience with driving a hydrogen car.
	Oh, yes!
	Release the 2018 Toyota Mirai.
	The incentive sounded great.
	$7,500 California clean air rebate, five minimum fill ups, and a credit card for $15,000 from Toyota for hydrogen fuel during the duration of the lease.
	Now that sounds like I would do that.
	Wow.
	It was a cool vehicle with some funny corks flooring.
	It would make some very strange sounds.
	I've reported on this.
	What I could only describe as a pumping and whooshing.
	Flooring it on the freeway was hilarious.
	This part I didn't know.
	It was hilarious because watching cars behind us turn on their wipers as the Mirai would blast them with exhaust water.
	Huh?
	Because, you know, when the hydrogen goes through the fuel cell.
	Yeah, water comes out.
	Where's the water go?
	So there's a 2022 model of one of these.
	Well, there you go.
	Then comes refilling.
	Yeah, it only takes five minutes to refill from empty, which is pretty quick.
	But when there's ten cars in front of you, you do the math.
	And by the way, imagine that with half hour electric cars, okay?
	What they don't tell you is how much maintenance these fueling stations require.
	The hydrogen is trucked in with diesel trucks and stored at such high pressures that they're constantly replacing seals.
	And when they do, the station goes offline for days.
	Each vehicle has a fuel app built in, but for more accurate station info, and then he's got a website.
	This app would tell me how much hydrogen a station has.
	If a station has 300 kilograms, and that's the way they do it in kilograms, that means it is at full capacity.
	If it has less than 50 kilograms or less, you're pretty much rolling the dice if you need to refill.
	A Mirai fill-up was about 5 kilograms.
	That's a full tank of hydrogen.
	As a bonus on hot days, the hydrogen... I can see this happening.
	As a bonus on hot days, the hydrogen nozzle would freeze into the fill port of your vehicle.
	Because of the chilling effect of the... it's a common problem.
	It's a process, yes.
	He says, fun.
	In our area of Southern California, there's only one hydrogen pipeline.
	It's located where the former Toyota dealers used to be in Torrance, our headquarters.
	However, in Japan, Toyota is building a hydrogen infrastructure with pipelines.
	In my opinion, hydrogen will never be a viable fuel in the U.S.
	without pipelines.
	All the best, Steven.
	Wow, so this is I'd never heard of this vehicle and the Mirai XLE has an EPA estimated range of 402 miles on a single charge.
	That's a big deal.
	That's a huge deal.
	Yep.
	It looks nice.
	It's not cheap, though.
	Uh, starts at the, the base model, which does 357 miles, is, uh, let me see, I think is 49,500.
	If you want something snazzy, you're starting at the limited or the XLE.
	Oh, the XLE, huh?
	is for you have 49,500 if you want something snazzy you're starting at the limited or the xle oh the xle huh 49,500 76 miles per gallon and the limited which i guess has a little more performance Ooh, hello, that's a jump.
	Uh, 67 miles per gallon.
	That's pretty cool.
	Now, I saw, I watched a video the other day, some dude back in the day had his Corvette running on hydrogen, and the way it operates is, the actual hydrogen in the tanks, you could shoot with it, shoot at the tank with a ballistic bullet, you can saw it in half, nothing will explode, nothing happens.
	Supposedly, yeah.
	The only way it works is there's heaters inside the tank, and when those heat up, then that releases the hydrogen in the form that is used by the engine.
	Is that correct?
	I don't know.
	You're supposed to know.
	I have a limit to my knowledge.
	This is your job to know these things.
	I'm disappointed.
	I know, I should know that, but I don't.
	Well, let's talk about... I know about these tanks.
	The tanks are a big deal that you make these tanks so they can have all the pressurized hydrogen.
	Now, does that car... he mentions a $7,500 California Clean Air Rebate.
	I wonder if that's still good.
	That I can't find.
	That I can't find.
	Yeah, that'd be interesting.
	Because if you get $15,000 worth of free fuel plus $7,500 off, you can take that off the base price and you do the calculation.
	If it comes into around, like, high 20s, that would be well worth it.
	If there's a hydrogen fill station around.
	It has an ass tick next to the price.
	So, pricing and info.
	Let's see.
	It doesn't show anything.
	That would be a California-only thing, wouldn't it?
	Yeah, well I think some other states do it, but California for sure.
	They're encouraging people to buy anything but gas, gasoline.
	Give me California's zip code.
	Well, one would be 94711, 94706, 94707, 94708.
	Your zip is invalid.
	94706, 94707, 94708. Your zip is invalid. Try 94532. Your zip is invalid.
	It's this El Cerrito post office box.
	It's in California.
	I'm trying to find a location.
	It says, it's, enter your zip code to find dealer's inventory and special offers near you.
	How about nine, how about this?
	90210.
	Oh, here we go.
	They got, they got stuff in, uh, LA.
	Okay, well let's do this exercise as we're doing this.
	Where is the nearest hydrogen filled tank around here?
	You tell me.
	Look it.
	I don't know.
	I don't see any evidence of any rebates.
	You got a college grad rebate, a military rebate.
	They may have given up on the hydrogen rebate.
	I think they've given up on hydrogen, at least for the moment.
	Hydrogen is the way to go, man!
	These cars are going to be the shit in the EU.
	Hydrogen is what we're running everything on.
	So let's go to electric vehicles then for a moment as Elon Musk.
	Hey, how's that Twitter deal going?
	Has he destroyed Twitter yet?
	He sent a note to his employees.
	It was quite the talk on CNBC.
	He feels super bad about the economy.
	So he's cutting 10% and forcing everybody to work 40 hours a month, a week.
	It's horrible.
	And so he doesn't like the way the economy's going.
	This came up in a Q&A with the President, who fielded the question quite well, considering his mental state.
	And here's some audio of it, including the question.
	Elon Musk has said that he has a super bad feeling about the U.S.
	Well, let me tell you, while Elon Musk is talking about that, Ford is increasing her investment overwhelmingly.
	I think Ford is increasing investment in building new electric vehicles, 6,000 new employees, union employees I might add, in the Midwest.
	So, why did he say that?
	to corporations, to Laundas.
	They are also making similar investments in electric vehicles.
	Intel is adding 20,000 new jobs for making computer chips.
	So, you know, lots of luck on his trip to the moon.
	I mean, I don't, I mean...
	So, what, why did he say that?
	First of all, he's going to Mars, not the moon.
	I think, no, I think it's part of the, either the Artemis project or something that...
	There is a moon trip.
	Oh, so is he getting his contract cut now that he had a big mouth?
	He's got a big mouth.
	The one that I'm more interested in is the... He's called out the SEC as a bunch of... I don't know what... He's called them names.
	He's literally... Which is not a smart thing to do, typically.
	My experience since I worked in the government, and I've worked with guys who are... who worked in the government, lots of them, and I know what type of mentality is there.
	It's like the...
	A little Napoleon's, a little Eichmann's kind of guys.
	They get a, as the term would be, a hard-on for someone, and they'll start going after them and making their life miserable.
	And they can do it from a bureaucratic position.
	They haven't done this with Musk.
	And I think it's going to happen.
	And he's going to be apologizing profusely and he's going to shut up.
	Maybe not.
	Maybe he says, I got more money.
	He's got $277 billion as his net worth, more or less.
	Changes on a day-to-day basis, but that's it.
	And so he's, you know, up there.
	Huh.
	And so he could drop billions into fighting him and just as a mean spirited person.
	I don't know.
	I don't know how, you know, he's going to, he's asking for trouble.
	I don't know why he just doesn't shut up and enjoy himself.
	Well, you know, my stance is because he's already on the payroll and he's, he's doing this with a purpose and he's leading the blind and the stupid.
	Maybe.
	I want to introduce a new Dutch term from the old country.
	Hausjus melker.
	Hausjus melker?
	Hausjus melker.
	Hausjus?
	Yep, melker.
	Melker.
	So, hausjus is homes, little homes, homes, apartments, homes, hausjus.
	A home is a house and a smaller house is a hausjus.
	Melker means milker.
	House milkers.
	This has been a thing as long as I've spoken Dutch, I've heard about this.
	This is always looked down upon as the a-holes who buy up lots of real estate, particularly in Amsterdam, to milk these homes, usually by putting lots of bunk beds in and renting at crazy prices to students.
	And this is exactly, this term is being used again.
	In fact, one of the princes... We have the same term in the United States.
	Really?
	It's different, slightly different.
	Yeah, it's called shithead.
	Interesting translation.
	Well, now we know that big investment firms and banks have gotten into this.
	And so it's horrible.
	The rents in New York City, millennials getting priced right out of their apartments.
	If you're paying $2,400 a month between two people who are on reasonably low wages and it goes up 30%, that's $800, $400 a person.
	That's just not attainable.
	So, you know, people are looking for other places to live, and there's something pointed out by the Pacific Standard magazine, a trend in rental apartments.
	And I'm sure our millennials will tell us, but apparently a rental apartment no longer automatically includes a refrigerator.
	You have to bring your own fridge now.
	Oh, huh.
	That is very strange.
	Interesting.
	So now you're just moving to a new apartment, you gotta buy a refrigerator, and when you move out you have to take it with you to your next place?
	That involves a moving company?
	That's the idea.
	It's a way to scrounge a free refrigerator for the next residence.
	No one's gonna take a refrigerator out.
	Oh my goodness, I just remembered something else.
	In the Netherlands, now I'm talking 70s, 80s, when you looked at the apartments for rent or homes for rent, it would have overnamekosten, which means assumption of stuff, that you pay for that.
	And that would always be the fridge and the stove, because back in the socialist country of the Netherlands, now the crime capital of the European Union, It was very similar.
	You did not get an apartment with washer, dryer, any of it.
	You had to either bring your own or pay for it, and sometimes you couldn't rent the place without buying that stuff from the previous tenant.
	We are moving into a classic socialist system here.
	Yeah.
	It's classic.
	It's so classic.
	Yeah, we'll continue, but I had, you know, heard about I don't know if this is socialism, but I know it's part of this kind of screwball, egalitarianism, what's going on in Sweden with Swedengate.
	No, what's Swedengate?
	It's low-end, like what you're talking about is kind of just like day-to-day life, interesting aspects of day-to-day life, which are, I don't know how to even describe this one.
	This is like a screwball story, but you'll get a kick out of it.
	SwedenGate1 NPR.
	SwedenGate worthy of a scandalous name or is it more of a tempest in a teakana?
	You have found something that is very Swedish and a very Swedish cultural way of thinking and having relationships with each other.
	That's Richard Tellstrom, historian and researcher of food culture at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.
	We called him because strangers on the internet have found something new, again, to rile their indignation, and this time it's about Swedish food culture.
	It's not about Sir Strumming, that odoriferous fermented herring that's considered a delicacy there.
	Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
	What the hell did he say, showing his elite knowledge of food?
	What was he talking about?
	That rotten fish that they bury and then you eat it.
	And this time it's about Swedish food culture.
	It's not about surstromming, that odoriferous fermented herring that's considered a delicacy there.
	It's the Swedish habit of not feeding other families' children when they're over to play and mealtime strikes.
	Someone on the discussion site Reddit mentioned having experienced it.
	You can guess the rest from Twitter to TikTok.
	Hashtags flew and voices were heard.
	Growing up as a child, it will be really common to go and play at your friend's house.
	And then they will be like, oh, I'm just going to go and have dinner.
	I'll be back in 30.
	And they will just leave you in their room.
	That's Swedish pop star Zara Larsson and a TikTok addressing Swedengate.
	Professor Tellström also remembers the practice from his own childhood.
	It was quite common and I have been waiting in many rooms for my friends to finish their meal.
	And this is now a controversy, somehow?
	Yeah, it's a big scandal.
	But it's the nexus, or not the nexus, but I think the origins of the scandal that are interesting to me, because we've all known about the egalitarianism, which is part of the Democrat ethos, by the way, you know, equality as opposed to liberty and equity.
	Equality and justice is Democrat.
	Liberty and freedom is Republican, which is the real philosophical differences between the two.
	But egalitarianism always leads to weirdness.
	And in fact, I remember the first time I flew on Icelandic air, you know, I was being flown over so I could have gotten a business, you know, or upgrade.
	No, no, everybody has to be in the same class.
	No, no, everyone's saying the same thing.
	You can't have classes.
	Oh my God, no.
	And it was egalitarian.
	And the same thing, when you go to Sweden, you have to understand this egalitarian thing.
	And this is what they're talking about here.
	But the rationale for it is pure idiocy, let's say.
	We asked him why a country that tops the rankings for happiness and family friendliness might seem so stingy in their hospitality.
	He pointed us to Sweden's noted egalitarianism.
	If your kids come home and eat with me a lot, then suddenly I have provided them more than you do for my kids.
	There is a sort of inequality.
	And this equality thought is very important up here in Sweden.
	So I help you by saying that no, your kid has to go home and eat, because then you don't owe me.
	And he says to be sure the practice is far less common than it used to be.
	Since food has become a new symbol in society, we have open kitchens, we like to dine and show off, Kids are watching MasterChef.
	So food has a totally different meaning today compared with what it had 40, 50 or 60 years ago.
	Richard Telstrom also pointed to a small benefit to waiting in a room for your friend to scarf down lunch.
	You could look at the things.
	You could look at a magazine.
	Go through their stuff!
	See how they were living in this room.
	So it was quite interesting to spend your time there for seven or eight or nine minutes or what it took to eat.
	Or you could listen to BJ Lederman who writes her theme music.
	Yeah, that's the way they finish it.
	The more you know.
	So I've been thinking about this because I think it relates.
	Because recently there's been these attacks in the New York subway system because there's not enough police because they cut back on the police in New York.
	So there's people literally getting attacked on the subway.
	With regularity.
	Nobody does anything about it.
	And I think there's this is the trend that this egalitarian idea, which is really rampant in Democrat controlled areas, because they push it more than anyone.
	And the idea is, why should I do anything?
	When the government should be doing it.
	If you start thinking about certain things that don't get done because nobody wants to do them, or they just like a days ago, they just don't want to get involved and all the rest.
	If you think that the basic thought is the government should be doing this.
	Here's an example.
	When I am out and I walk the dog, if I see trash, I pick it up.
	I bring it home and I throw it out.
	Yeah.
	I believe the trash is there, first of all, because someone threw it out thinking the government will clean it up, and everyone else looked and went, yeah, the government will do that. - Yeah.
	Yeah, I think that's exactly right.
	And it's like the government should do this, the government should do that.
	Why should I do it?
	Because it's just like the Swedes thinking, why should I be feeding their kids?
	Now it becomes unequal.
	It's not equitable.
	There's no equity here.
	I feed their kids.
	They don't feed my kids.
	So it's unfair.
	It's unfair.
	It's unequitable.
	Interesting.
	So I just thought that was an extension of what's to come.
	Yeah.
	Well, skipping ahead even, the Prime Minister of the socialist New Zealand country, I like saying it that way.
	Jacinda, Jacinda came to America, now that she's unleashed the masses, I guess they can travel, she's traveling, and she went all around, she was talking to everybody, went to the UN, she was maybe on the Late Show, I think, or is going to be on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and she's having a good little time, she brought along a whole bunch of, you know, of course, it's for the The Chamber of Commerce obviously says, you know, America's a very important country for us.
	And, you know, the Socialists went to lots of important people.
	For Ardern, New York was meant to be about trade and tourists.
	After her COVID nightmare back home, this morning she woke up finally here, in the city that never sleeps.
	Here to buddy up to the states and open more doors to trade.
	Prime Minister, how's your day going?
	Oh, it's busy, but fantastic.
	Like the doors to 10 trillion dollar investment firm BlackRock.
	But Ardern is not just a brand ambassador, she's the prime minister with power, and those she's meeting know it.
	Eh, she had a little meeting with Larry Fink over at BlackRock.
	Oh brother.
	Eh, now why would she need to go there?
	No reason except to sell out our country.
	I'm gonna show my school by donating to No Agenda.

	He forgot to ask for a de-douching on the first one.
	Could he have a retroactive one?
	Yes.
	The answer is no.
	You've been de-douched.
	Thanks to these producers who supported the show.
	This is the way it works.
	We bring you the value.
	We deconstruct.
	You can see that in our mission statement at noagenda.net.
	Uh, and you return that value in whatever way works for you.
	Time, talent, treasure.
	We love the treasure.
	Put your, and, and $5 is just as valuable to us if it's valuable to you.
	That's how it works.
	The value for value.
	I, in fact, I want to call it the value for value standard.
	I'm working on this.
	Yeah.
	What do you think?
	That's kind of a rip-off, but... Well, since I think they were the ones promoting it the best, I would say that's probably... You know, I do have... Before we go into the thing, there's a clip that I should play, because I have this new segment I want to do, and so we're talking about how to get money into the podcast so you can keep the podcast going, pay for the service, do what you have to do.
	This is a new segment I want to do called WWWP, which is What's Wrong With Podcasting?
	And this is a short clip with... I like this segment already.
	Can we do it right before the podcasting 2.0 segments?
	So we have problem, reaction, solution?
	I don't know if it needs one.
	This is pretty good.
	This is Ben Shapiro talking about Amber Heard being named ambassador of the ACLU for being abused.
	And I just want you to listen to this short clip and tell me what you think is wrong with podcasting.
	The ACLU's bestowal of an ambassadorship inscribed for higher services upon a scandal-plagued actor willing to pay seven figures to transform herself into a victim's advocate and advance her acting career heard push for a publication date that coincided with the release of Aquaman.
	As part of the group's continuing decline, once a bastion of free speech and high-minded ideals, the ACLU has become in many respects a caricature of its former self.
	This, of course, is exactly right, but so has large swaths of the left.
	The left used to say that free speech mattered and truth mattered, and now neither of those things are true.
	Now you're just supposed to shut up and believe.
	It's always to shut up and believe.
	That of course is the cause.
	The left used to think that things like free speech and truth mattered not so much anymore, but there is one overriding truth.
	When you are buying something for the woman in your life, This is just the go-to.
	It's the go-to for me.
	And that means my go-to is Blue Nile.
	Whether you're ready to pop the question or you're just celebrating a milestone moment, find jewelry as unique as she is with the modern convenience of online shopping at Blue Nile.
	Okay.
	Uh, can I answer your question?
	What is wrong with podcasting?
	I love this segment.
	Couple things.
	What is, first of all, what is amazing to me is the adulation that Ben Shapiro receives from real Republicans.
	I mean, and I'm talking about rich Republicans, elite Republicans, I know several.
	I go to their parties, I love them, but the adulation over Shapiro is...
	Mind-boggling.
	Because of this very clip that we play here.
	Who gives a shit about this story, but then to fold it right in seamlessly as if the story was written to promote Blue Diamond, whatever, whatever this... Blue Nile.
	Blue Nile, whatever this is.
	is incredibly lame, shows that there's possible compromise, and overall the Daily Wire, which is his outfit, I'm really disappointed in those guys.
	They have what I think would be a very amusing video documentary by Matt Walsh, you know, What Is Woman, and he goes all over the world, talks to a lot of nutjobs, there's tons of clips everywhere.
	If you want to see it, now I would want to pay money I paid $30 to see 2,000 mules.
	Fine.
	I paid $30, you know, give me an opportunity to watch it and then determine what I thought it was worth and pay later.
	That would be the value for value standard.
	But no, you have to sign up and subscribe to the Daily Wire.
	So there's something wrong with them in general, although extremely successful.
	I think they're stupid.
	I think this is the Republican stupid.
	Seriously, this is a great example of it.
	I can argue the point that Republicans are stupid.
	Yeah, that's pretty obvious.
	But at that piece, he goes right from one thing... I mean, the way he does that, that segue, is it... I mean, yeah, it's seamless.
	It's beyond seamless.
	But at the same time, it's shameful.
	Troll Logan 5.
	Adam, careful.
	This could result in a podcast war between NA and Shapiro.
	Oh, please.
	These people don't talk about us.
	We're way beneath them.
	Because now is a great time to buy gold!
	He could have folded that easily.
	Now, you know what?
	That's actually the right way to go.
	The reason that's not gonna happen because it's a great time to fucking go.
	I love the value for value model.
	It keeps us on our toes.
	It keeps us excited.
	We don't have to have meetings.
	There was a meeting about that ad.
	And there's meetings about all these stupid things.
	So what's wrong?
	The whole premise is wrong.
	What do you see is wrong?
	Anything you want to add to this?
	No, I think it just speaks for itself.
	So thank you to all of our producers, also the executive and associate executive producers.
	If you'd like to become a producer, please consider that.
	Also, under $50, very welcome our sustaining donations and people who want to remain anonymous.
	More information, sing the jingle with me now.

	So bad news.
	But I do not have any ISOs. .
	Wow!
	That's a coincidence.
	You don't have an ISO either?
	No.
	That means we get to go potluck with some old ISO.
	Or we could just use this one.
	I'm living in a twilight zone!
	Which we played earlier today.
	Yeah, use that's fine.
	I think that'll work.
	He hasn't gotten much love from us for a while.
	And we certainly do love Alex Jones.
	He's been instrumental to this program.
	Instrumental.
	I'm not sure about that.
	I think so.
	I think he has.
	Hey, what's wrong with this?
	This is, you know, it's bees today.
	It's bugs tomorrow.
	I'm not quite sure what's going on with California, but I love, and I've been waiting for someone to find a story about this that could play the clip from.
	This is what your state is doing.
	I'm living!
	Oops, sorry.
	That too.
	Bumblebees are now being classified as fish in California.
	Oh yeah, it's great.
	As an endangered species.
	Until now, the state's Endangered Species Act only listed birds, mammals, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and plants, not insects.
	A closer look at the definition of fish is the code includes mollusk crustacean invertebrate.
	So bumblebees qualify as terrestrial invertebrate under the fish umbrella and can be protected under the act.
	So there you go.
	Getting creative.
	How does that?
	That's very interesting.
	Bumblebee fish.
	We have a lot of bumblebees around my house.
	They're a really fascinating bee.
	I find it really interesting that they classify that as a As fish now.
	I mean, because then you can just classify bugs as fish.
	The pescetarians... It was for the good of the bumblebee, so you're missing the point.
	They had this poor bumblebee and they're kind of in danger because people keep whacking them with tennis rackets when they see one because they're easy to hit.
	And so we can't do that anymore.
	And so we had to do something, but then they figured out there was a, oh wait, we can't do that with bugs.
	And so they came up with a new, cause we want to protect everything here in California if we can.
	I was just speaking on food.
	As long as they don't reclassify the cockroach.
	Well, oh, oh.
	I'm seeing memes now, the cockroach milking is trending.
	That you can milk cockroaches, and it's more nutritious than cow's milk.
	Oh yeah, absolutely.
	I can see that.
	I can see it.
	You think that's true?
	I hope not.
	But it's trending.
	Cockroach milk.
	Instead of a baby formula.
	Get these kids started early!
	Just grind it, put the cockroaches in a blender, the milk will be in there and it'll be good to go.
	These new high power blenders, they'll knock that thing into oblivion.
	Will it blend?
	Oh, goodness.
	I only have one last clip.
	I think it'd be a good clip.
	It's a little long.
	Okay.
	The Maricopa election fraud clip, maybe, just to give people a little idea that what's going on.
	Yeah, it's still going on.
	These guys are still, oh, these guys, you know.
	Oh, you mean the stolen election?
	Stolen election.
	Oh, no.
	Oh, please, don't say it's so.
	Newly uncovered records from Maricopa County show 19,000 invalid ballots were counted in Arizona's 2020 general election.
	An election integrity group says the amount is enough to have potentially swayed results in the state's presidential election.
	NTD's Jeremy Sandberg reports.
	Arizona law requires ballots to be received no later than 7 p.m.
	on election day by the county to be considered valid.
	Yet, newly uncovered records document over 20,000 ballots were transported from the U.S.
	Postal Service after Election Day, of which only 934 were rejected by Maricopa County.
	In Arizona's 2020 presidential election, President Joe Biden came in with 10,457 more votes than former President Donald Trump.
	It is impossible to know if the results would be different if the late ballots had not been counted.
	Verity Vote obtained documents from the county and reported their findings.
	In response to requests, Maricopa County made ballot receipt of delivery documents available for public inspection from October 13th through November 6th, 2020.
	Verity Vote investigators noticed the documents from November 4th, 2020, the day after the election, were missing.
	It took nearly seven months to get the documents after Verity Vote made multiple requests to Maricopa County for the November 4th receipt of delivery.
	The receipt shows 18,000 ballots were picked up from the post office the day after the November 3rd election.
	The county also documents receiving 1,000 ballots on November 5th and 1,500 ballots on November 6th, combining for a total of 20,500 late ballots, but the actual number could be much higher.
	Two.
	A letter from the county recorder in response to Verity Votes' document requests says the November 4th receipt provided does not represent all ballots received that day.
	Another anomaly is the number of ballots collected November 4th compared to other days around that time.
	Voters were instructed to mail ballots by October 27th to be sure their ballots arrived on time.
	By October 30th, the number of ballots coming by mail dropped sharply, but saw a massive spike the day after the election.
	Could you please tell me where this clip came from?
	Uh, Nteng Dynasty.
	Huh.
	So we have to get the news about our own country from the Chinese.
	Well, yeah.
	It's related to epoch time, so... That's just sad, bro.
	Oh, bro!
	Yeah.
	Although it turns out that there was a... In Pennsylvania, there was a ballot stuffing operation being run by...
	Some Republican.
	Surprise!
	Both sides do it.
	Surprise, surprise.
	Of course both sides do it.
	We know it.
	Everybody knows it.
	Alright everybody, that's it for our deconstruction for today, but we look forward to meeting y'all back here on Thursday.
