Boom, you're a dude.
Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
Thursday, October 5th, 2023, this is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1596.
This is no agenda.
We are dodging the FEMA alert systems live 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 Taylor Swift is at it again, I'm John C. Dvorak.
We really can't talk about Taylor Swift.
That really pisses people off.
Oh no, it pisses off that one guy who has a crush on her who's in the chat room.
The troll room.
It's like the biggest distraction of the week.
It's so annoying.
I don't think it's gonna, you know, this is a kind of, I believe this is a contract.
And here we go, we're talking about her!
I, because of marketing.
I think this is a contract between her and the NFL.
Yeah, there's two movies coming out.
Her movie and her so-called boyfriend's documentary.
Her so-called boyfriend.
Yeah, it's bullcrap.
Well, and there's also, I think there's some other issues.
I think they paid her to come to these games.
Yeah, for ratings and climate change.
Trust me, she's going to do climate change.
It's coming.
For the money?
She'll do anything.
But that's okay, because that is not the biggest news.
The biggest news, right at the top of the NOAA Gender Show, everybody.
Coming up, it's a feeding frenzy on the move.
Bed bugs are giving people nightmares.
Over the last ten years, their population has been exploding.
Tonight, we know why the insects are crawling out of beds and into movie theaters and classrooms and more.
It's from 2020.
But it's movie theaters.
It was movie theaters in 2020 here in the U.S.
and now it's movie theaters in 2023 in France.
Yeah, there's another scam.
Well, listen, because they've got the World Health Organization bringing them in now.
That's where they should move.
Take to catch all the bedbugs you can and bring them to the U.N.
building.
Here's France 24.
For more, let's cross to the... This is now.
This is not 2020.
For more, let's cross to the French city of Rouen.
Yann Cédric Hansen is vice president of GLOSSA and has worked with the World Health Organization in the past.
Thank you for speaking with us here on France 24.
Hi, I'm happy to talk to you.
So first off, is this a blown out of proportion with social media or is there a real problem with bed bugs?
Well, there is a coming real problem with Bedbergs, because this ectoparasite, that means a parasite that lives around the human beings and animals, feeds on blood, and therefore, he's not the only one, but he's becoming quite an important issue, because it is trading not only in some specific areas, but now it is becoming
Like a pandemic, we could say, because it is now involving and invading any social economic area of industrialized countries.
It's a pandemic!
There's some speculation that part of... I mean, this is being used for everything now.
It's being used by people who hate Macron for being a douche, having nuclear energy, not closing all of his nuke plants.
So it's being used against him.
Some believe it's the hotel industry is hyping it up to go against Airbnb for the coming Olympics.
Ooh, I like that.
I like that a lot, actually.
That's the one I like.
And of course, it's, again, movie theaters.
That's where movie theater is.
But you don't want people going to the movies when you've got the Olympics.
Yeah, so?
Well, the bedbugs are in the movie theaters.
They're not at the Olympic Stadium.
They're not in your home, necessarily.
Well, they should be in your home, actually, if you're going to have bedbugs at all.
Apparently, one out of every eight French homes has bedbugs.
Yeah?
Le bedbugs.
Le bedbugs.
One out of every eight?
I think that brings in the Airbnb thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Libet bugs.
So I think that's possible, but everybody loves jump... I mean, in America we do everything just better.
I'm sorry.
When it comes to crappy news, which of course, you know, whenever you look at your screens, you know, every TV news bulletin has a story that affects you personally at that very moment.
They're very good at doing that.
Have you ever noticed that if Hollywood were true, anybody could land a plane as long as there's someone in the tower to talk you down?
There's also no lights.
No one uses lights in the kitchen.
You only have to open the refrigerator door.
Use that light.
That's the best.
All detectives can only solve a case after suspended from duty.
This is fact.
We all know this.
Also, I think I brought this up years ago on the show, which is that when the detectives go into a room, they never turn on the lights.
They use their flashlights, which they hold in some peculiar fashion.
Like a club.
They hold a flashlight backwards.
It doesn't matter how many ninjas are attacking you, they will all patiently wait, one by one, to get you.
You're only fighting one at a time.
That's Hollywood.
Pay attention, people.
No, this is how we do things in America.
Hey, bedbugs.
It's bedbugs.
It's a story.
What are we going to do?
We need a bedbug story, people.
Get us a bedbug story.
It's hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!
Tonight, the family of a man who died at the Fulton County Jail is now demanding action.
They say he was essentially eaten alive by insects and bedbugs while in custody.
Tracy Amick Pierce spoke with him just hours ago.
She's joining us now live from the Fulton County Courthouse.
Tracy?
Well, LaShawn Thompson had been held in the psych wing of the jail for three months when an officer found him unresponsive in his cell.
His family tells me by that point, they couldn't even recognize him.
He was definitely a heavyset guy, and from those pictures, he looks totally different.
He's not the same person.
Brad McRae says these pictures of his brother that he shared with us.
35-year-old LaShawn Thompson are hard to look at.
His cell at the Fulton County Jail covered in filth and his body covered in sores and bites from bed bugs and lice.
It looked like he wasn't eating in jail or malnutrition or maybe the bed bugs did it.
The Fulton County Medical Examiner report lists his cause of death as undetermined, but noted a severe bed bug infestation.
The family says Thompson was brought to the jail on a misdemeanor simple battery charge in June and was put in the psych wing because the jail was aware of his schizophrenia.
They are now demanding the jail be closed and law enforcement open a criminal investigation.
Man, and they show pictures.
That did not look good.
That guy was eaten by bugs.
Eaten by bed bugs.
Which of course is, you know, is them dead.
And you have to remember that that's the same jail that they dragged Trump into.
No, no.
Is that the one?
Is that the same one?
That's the exact same place.
Oh, how interesting.
So that makes it, so you put in your mind, you put in the mind the possibility that Trump's dragging bedbugs to Mar-a-Lago and there will be an infestation of bedbugs.
Or that he could be eaten by bedbugs.
Mar-a-Lago, bedbugs, everybody.
I didn't even pick up on that.
That's good.
That is good.
Well, you don't need bed bugs to eat you alive, to lose weight.
We have the Ozempic, of course.
A lot of stories about Ozempic.
And, you know, there's...
Now, this is a really, really...
You know, Ozempe or Norvo Nordisk, in the first seven months of 2023, spent $500 million on advertising. $500 million.
That's like political presidential campaign level.
Yeah.
And of course it's not just on the cute commercials.
It's on placed advertising.
It's, you know, native ads inside the morning shows.
They're now doing, they are sponsoring a documentary exploring obesity in America.
And now they've managed, in this next report which is NBC, they've managed to turn negative reports, there are two negative reports.
Most people who pay attention to M5M, that's you and I sometimes, have seen Sharon Osbourne looking positively anorexic.
I mean she's so anorexic she's doing, you know, like eating disorder tricks by wearing a very baggy sweater.
Where you can just tell there's a skeleton.
The woman is a skeleton.
And I know her as Sharon, Roly-Poly Sharon from the Moscow Music Peace Festival.
Before the stomach band surgery.
What is that called?
What is that procedure called?
I forget what it's called.
Staples.
Staples.
Stomach staple.
Before the stomach staple.
Before the stomach staple.
And, you know, she, I think on Pierce Morgan, I went too far.
I let it go too far.
Oprah has come out and said, nah, you know, even though Weight Watchers, of which she is a major shareholder, now known as WW, new branding, they bought a telehealth company that prescribes stuff like Ozempic and Wagovi.
Even now she's saying, nah, nah, nah, nah, I'm not doing it anymore.
NBC somehow put together this package, which turned it all positive.
I mean, brilliant work.
For millions of Americans, the rise of weight loss and diabetes drugs, including Ozempic, feels like something of a miracle.
I couldn't be happier.
Over the past three years, their use has gone up 300%, according to a new report from analytics firm Trillion Health.
And with the blockbuster success of these drugs comes new warnings they may not be suitable for everyone.
The Food and Drug Administration recently updating its Ozempic warning label to acknowledge reports of ileus, or failure of the intestines to move normally.
Drug maker Novo Nordisk, which manufactures Ozempic and Wagobi, said it stands behind the safety and efficacy of Ozempic in a statement to NBC.
Is that safe and effective?
I think it is.
Safety and efficacy.
Safe and effective!
Adding, the company is working closely with the FDA to continuously monitor the safety profile of its medications.
More common side effects include nausea and stomach issues.
As Sharon Osbourne recently... I love how to do that.
So, you know, some people have got really bad stuff going on, but more common issues is just a little bit of, you know, stomach pain and nausea.
This is, you might experience, not that other stuff, you won't have that.
As Sharon Osbourne recently shared with Piers Morgan on Morgan Uncensored.
You feel nauseous.
You don't throw up physically, but you've got that feeling.
And it, I was about two, three weeks where I felt nauseous the whole time.
You get very thirsty.
And you don't want to eat.
Osbourne says she lost more weight than she expected.
I lost 42 pounds now, and it's just enough.
Oprah.
Oh man, you see how they do that?
They took out all the, I went too far business, and they go, this is an amazing amount of weight loss, 42 pounds and that's enough?
I didn't really throw up.
I just felt a little nauseous, a little thirsty.
This is phenomenal work, NBC.
And it's just enough.
They get paid the big bucks for this.
They sure do.
Winfrey also recently weighing in on the drugs.
Winfrey, who is an investor and board member in Weight Watchers, says she doesn't believe the medications are for her.
Shouldn't we all just be more accepting of whatever body you choose to be in?
When I first started hearing about the weight loss drugs, I felt, I've got to do this on my own.
I've got to do this on my own because if I take the drug, that's the easy way out.
Inspired by dramatic before and after pictures.
That is so well done!
That's really well done, but I like the idea of the body you choose to be in.
You choose to be in!
Yes!
I'm not choosing to be in this, but I'd rather be in some, you know, a different body if I could be in one.
If I choose to be in a different body, can I be in that?
The muscular one?
The ripped one?
I choose to be in that body.
This is how fantastic this is.
They take Oprah, Because it's not working for her, because she doesn't want to die of any side effects that we're hearing about, doesn't want to be puking, doesn't want to be thirsty, doesn't want to be Sharon Osbourne.
So, but she's a shareholder.
So what are we gonna do?
Well, you know, I'm gonna talk about You get to choose the body you're in.
I choose to be in this one.
And I can do it myself.
I'm not going to, quote, take the easy way out.
Message being, this is the easy way out, people.
Don't be like Oprah.
Don't be like me.
Take the easy way out.
Take the drug.
You choose to be in.
When I first started hearing about the weight loss drugs, I felt, I've got to do this on my own.
I've got to do this on my own because if I take the drug, that's the easy way out.
Inspired by dramatic performance.
That's worth a million dollars right there.
Well, I'm sure she got paid for it.
I'm sure she got a million dollars.
Yeah, at least.
But the easy way out.
Okay, well, most people would take the easy way out, to be honest, and what she just said.
Okay.
Exactly.
It's beautiful.
It's beautiful.
Choose to be in.
When I first started hearing about the weight loss drugs, I felt, I've got to do this on my own.
I've got to do this on my own, because if I take the drug, that's the easy way out.
Inspired by dramatic before and after pics on social media, doctors say many people have unrealistic expectations of how fast they should be losing weight, which can make unpleasant side effects worse.
I see too many people who want to start at higher doses.
It is best to start slow and low.
Slow and low.
Bring it on, baby, once you start slow and low.
Meanwhile, there's horrible things happening to people.
Oh, some of the stuff is just frightening.
But they're monitoring.
Especially when the stomach just decides to stop working.
But don't worry, people.
They're monitoring for your safety.
Your safety.
So yesterday, the big FEMA test.
Did you die?
Oh yeah, I didn't have a phone.
Did you die?
Obviously, I haven't used a cell phone since December of last year.
So you didn't die.
Did anyone we know die?
I don't think so.
I mean, Tina was monitoring the local text groups and Instagram and a lot of it was, you know, just in case, unplug your computer, turn your phone off.
Really?
Yes!
What is wrong with people?
Well, after we debunked the tone that would never work through the, through, uh, you know... The tone won't work at all!
Well, I mean, there's... Some people said they could hear it when you hit like 8,000 Hertz, which... Yeah, people were not happy with my test.
Well, I guess it set off a few dogs.
Someone said they got a headache.
Oh please, nobody got a headache from that.
Yeah, one producer said he got a headache right in the middle of his head.
And I said, dude, on the fourth, you better unplug your phone.
You're going to die.
No, people are like, that was not cool, man.
It's not like I didn't say I'm going to do it.
That was not cool, man.
Not cool.
Not cool.
Who said that?
Several people thought that was not cool.
You hurt my ears.
It was not cool.
Bull bull.
Yes.
Yes.
People, they get all triggered like that.
It's okay.
At least they didn't know they didn't die, so I spun them down in this horrible situation.
So once that was debunked, and you know, of course there's a patent that you can blow apart cancer cells, all kinds of stuff, if you have a high enough frequency, but that won't work through cell phones and your television and your radio.
No.
No, the speakers are no good.
So then it was, the 5G, they're activating the 5G!
No!
It's like 5G is on.
It's not like they're gonna turn it on all of a sudden.
It's on!
But they send out this tone and then they're gonna amp up the output?
No.
No, people.
No.
How's that gonna work?
Yeah.
Well, this is all a throwback to the 5G and the vaccination.
That's where this comes from.
People don't believe news.
Surprise!
So they'll believe anything.
That's why people come to the No Agenda Show.
You know?
Now, I did like the idea that some people saying, hey, it's not about that.
It's, you know, it's about how many phones respond.
There may be some, you know, some mechanism in some phones to find out if you if you turned it off immediately.
And there's a couple of things that may have been Or just in general, how people on social media are responding to the idea.
Yeah, it could be a test.
It could be some sort of test.
That by itself is worthy of a test.
I got mine in Spanish, which was cool, because that's what I need in an emergency.
I need my emergency information in Spanish.
You got an emergency message in Spanish?
I sure did.
Well, you know, I'm running the no agenda phone, so who knows what they think that is.
Hey, man, it's probably an illegal migrant.
Oh, it's gotta be.
Oh, this is some sort of cheap phone, so it must be a Mexican.
Give him the Spanish.
Give him the Spanish, because he's a little racist.
You think?
So I got inspired.
I got really inspired by Nick The Rat's album art for us, which we'll talk about later.
But it was this And it turns out it was AI.
Surprise.
We thought it wasn't up to Nick The Rat's standard.
No, well it was well chosen.
I don't believe that no agenda the way it's presented on the side of the ship could be, can be done by AI.
No, he, you know, he said he did that himself.
It was the... Yeah, you have to do that yourself.
And that's the main part of the... That was the gag.
That was the gag.
It was catchy.
Yeah, that was the gag.
So it was no agenda.
But what really caught me is you had this little boat, and then you have this kind of ghostly, huge ocean liner, which was, you know, just kind of looming out of Out of nothingness and that's really the NGO, you know, that's really the big, the big, the elephant in the room.
And I was thinking about this and I'm just mulling over what I'm seeing, you know, going back to what, you know, television.
So on television and on the news and on your screens, people who have traveled for thousands of miles through harrowing circumstances, With coyotes, human traffickers, rapists.
These people show up at our border with new shoes, clean shirts, their hair not dirty, not looking ragged.
That last bit through the Rio Grande and the barbed wire, that's just a little show to give us the illusion that these people have made some harrowing journey.
Where are the arrests of these human trafficking rings?
Where are they?
Where are they?
How come you never hear, oh we got one!
They had all these people, they're coyotes!
You never hear about that.
And it just dawned on me, the true human traffickers are the NGOs.
And so I, you know, so when they say, oh, it's human traffickers, yes, that's correct.
These are paid for by the United Nations, the IOM, the International Office of Migration, by our very own State Department, which I'm going to lay out for you, because I went down a rabbit hole and I was blown away with what I came up with.
So if, this is almost like pipeline stuff, if you view this migrant, this migration replacement, and we had the document from, I sound like Alex Jones, we had the document from 2001, the United Nations, we've, you know, it's good, we've got to have all these, we've got to have all these Western countries, Western Europe, the United States, the United Kingdom, even Russia, we have to have all these migrants in their countries by 2030, coincidence?
Because by 2050, you know, they'll need the new people.
It's good.
We have to get this going.
And I think, certainly, and I can prove this to a degree, even in the United States, especially in the United States, The true elites who are in on this game, which is not your border patrol, this is not Mallorcas, this is not FBI or any of these people, this is way above.
This is at a globalist level that is never discussed.
These elites know that we're raping these countries where these people live.
You know, for their iPhones and their EVs.
And they feel guilty!
So they get in USAID and the National Endowment for Democracy and the Arts and they go to all these galas and they have their fundraisers and their benefits and they get on boards and there's all this money flowing from our tax dollars and money that we've printed and they roll it into the, you know, we're helping the poor people!
But just don't put him in my backyard.
So this is a global problem, the global West I'll say.
And I have a couple things that I discovered which are quite eye-opening.
First let's get an update from the EU where we have a deal!
Now the European Union's 27 member states have today reached a deal on refugees and migrants.
It concerns how to share caring for people during crisis situations and how to organize financial aid.
Note, they're not talking about solving anything.
No, no, no.
Instead of, hey, we've got too many migrants coming into our country.
Look at Lampedusa, look at Germany, look at Sweden.
There's no deal that says, yeah, we've got to fix, we're going to build a wall, or anything like that.
Build a wall is also a huge farce.
There's nothing like that.
No, no.
We have solutions.
and how to organize financial aid as well.
Financial aid, money!
Tell us what's been agreed.
Armin Georgian, our Europe editor, is with us.
And Armin, just remind us then what the proposed Migration and Asylum Pact actually does.
I think we have to go back in a way to the big migrant crisis of 2015 to 16, which was a big trauma for European political elites.
And that's really informed all of these discussions for the last seven or eight years. .
Back then, you might remember Angela Merkel, the German leader's famous phrase, we can do it, wir schaffen das, we can take in a large influx of migrants.
Remember this, John?
Remember this?
Angela Merkel.
Of course.
She won the Kalergi Award.
We covered it very extensively on this show.
She won the Kalergi.
Go look at Kalergi.
The Kalergi Award for Migration.
And a million, over a million migrants came in.
Wir schaffen das!
Come on, krauts!
We can do it, Germans!
Come on, Jerry!
We can make this work.
There's been a big shift.
Yes, we can, is basically the German Obama.
Yes, we can!
It's not who we are!
There's been a big shift since those times.
No European leader talks about this issue the way Angela Merkel did back then and certainly the German leadership doesn't take that kind of approach.
Nowadays we have very much a focus on other things like security, so for example how to simplify and speed up asylum-related procedures, how to hold migrants at the EU's external borders for up to 40 weeks.
In certain circumstances.
To be fair, there's also been talk under this proposed asylum migration pact.
There's been talk of solidarity helping frontline states like Italy and Greece.
There's been talk of, you know, making sure there are legal routes for migrants into the EU.
Legal routes?
This is not stopping migration.
This is just changing legislation to make it coming by a rubber boat legal.
That's legal now!
They're not changing anything!
There's been talk of, you know, making sure there are legal routes for migrants into the EU so they don't attempt dangerous crossings.
But ultimately, we're in a European election year, a campaign year, where security is a very, very centre stage.
Now you understand why they have to do something about it, because all these, the Minions in the European Union, they're up for a vote.
Not that they can do anything when they get into European Parliament, but they could do a yellow card.
But they're up for a vote and they don't want to stop.
They love Brussels.
They love the parties.
They love all the stuff that's going on in Brussels.
They love not really having to do anything.
You can just show up in the morning, get your per diem and go home.
You get an apartment.
You get an apartment in Limo.
You get an Audi, an Audi limo, get your hair done by Pierre.
We gotta look like we're doing something here.
And just in case we get thrown out, we gotta get as many people in as we can.
European elites know that the migration issue is fuel for the various populist parties across the EU that are running in those EU elections next June.
So I start looking around and, you know, really everything comes from one place.
It's the IOM, International Organization for Migration.
IOM.int.
They get an international domain name.
Nice.
And the first thing I see, did you know that immigration is actually part of the Sustainable Development Goals.
You know, this is this Agenda 2030 that they set up a long time ago, and it has to do with climate change, and climate change, and climate change, and world health, and migration.
And the theme of this past United Nations General Assembly was, oh, we're not doing very well with our sustainable development goals.
We're behind.
We're not even at 20%.
We don't have that.
What do we have?
We have less than seven years left.
We've got to hurry up.
And right there on the IOM website is a video, Human Mobility is an Essential Part.
Of the Sustainable Development Goal Rescue Plan!
So they need to rescue these Sustainable Development Goals with, you know, this is the whole climate change, don't eat meat, eat bugs.
And to help save it, we've got to have more migration.
So this also kind of explains why we need, why we're seeing more migrants across the Western world.
I'm going to play this video.
It's interesting.
Only 12% of the 149 targets are on track and nearly one in three have shown no progress since 2015.
The SDG summit in New York marks the halfway point to the deadline set to achieve the 2030 agenda.
It is imperative that human mobility is incorporated into the rescue plan the UN Secretary General is urging world leaders to deliver at the summit.
Migrants and displaced persons account for one in eight people in the world.
Managed well, human mobility can be a cornerstone of development, prosperity and progress.
The Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and the Secretary General's Action Agenda on Internal Displacement provide the roadmaps to maximize the positive impacts of human mobility on development.
What they're saying here is, it's good.
We've got to do it.
We've got to do more of it.
And it's not stopping it.
No, it's encouraging it.
It's more.
Well, the key word there was internal displace or replacement or displace.
Displace.
Internal displace.
Yes, internally displace.
Which means that you're an American.
You're out.
You're displaced.
You're displaced for somebody that came in from, I don't know, Venezuela?
Just a thought.
Anywhere but you.
Anyone, anywhere but you.
You're done.
Why?
Why are you done?
That's the key.
What's wrong with the American Deaths here, do they want too much money?
Are they too greedy?
Do they eat too much?
Do they refuse to believe half the crap that's thrown at them?
Are they stupid?
What is the reason?
We're not obedient.
Yes, absolutely.
We'll get there.
The world is growing less equal.
Less equal.
Ah, the world is growing less equal.
This is the globalists like, well, it's not fair.
We've been raping those countries for centuries.
It's not fair.
It's less equal.
Let's do something.
Let's equalize it by displacing our own citizens for these poor people over there that we've been raping.
More than half of the 71 million IDPs live in least developed countries.
IDPs.
Let's write that down.
What are you?
I'm an IDP, sir.
Check, sir.
Got it.
What's an IDP?
Internally Displaced Person.
Internally Displaced Person, and an American?
Well, they're talking about people from Venezuela and other countries here, but yeah, you can be an, of course, of course you're an internally displaced person.
We're going to be internally displaced in our own countries.
Yes.
Migration replacement.
It says it on the tin.
I love this part.
developed countries.
Remittances and migrant savings exceed one trillion US dollars per year, more than foreign direct investment and official development assistance. - I love this part.
So when you let migrants into your country, they send over a trillion dollars per year back to their own countries, which is more than all investment made by these globalist elites.
So they come into our economy, work here, legally or not, or just get money, you know, gift in New York, Chicago, you just get money, and they send that back home.
And the United Nations hears that's a good thing.
That's theft!
Am I misreading this?
No, not yet.
Some governments are responding to the rising anti-migrant xenophobia by closing the door even as they struggle to fill jobs.
Oh, well, we've got anti-migrant xenophobia.
It's not, you know, hey, what is happening here?
No, it's not questioning what's going on.
It's you're xenophobic.
I love xenophobia.
Well, now you understand why they call Trump xenophobic.
This is all, this was the real problem with Trump.
This really... Well, if you think about it, let's go back to 2016 with Hillary.
Who is supposed to get the thing handed to her in a silver platter.
Oh, we're coming to Hillary.
Yes.
Go ahead.
She's the one.
What?
Go ahead, because Hillary is a part of this for sure.
Yeah, she's the one who said that she imagines a day where there's no, nothing, there's no borders from the tip of South America all the way up to Canada.
Do we think, do we have a clip of that?
I don't know if we have a clip of that.
That would be a hard one to find because it's hard to categorize.
But she did.
Everyone knows that that was her policy was there was be no borders, nothing to stop anyone from as if they're going to walk going from the tip of South America all the way up to Canada.
I'll just finish this for a second.
People on the move have less access to the Internet and new technologies.
That's why you get a free cell phone.
You have less access.
People on the move have less access to the internet and technologies.
That's why, at our border, you get a cell phone.
216 million people could move within their countries due to climate change.
Ah, yeah!
Climate change, of course!
This is the big one.
This is the easy one.
People have to move because of climate change.
It's too dangerous to live in their countries.
By 2050.
Well, hold on.
This reminds me of the softening up we got probably five years ago when people kept talking about climate change migration.
Yep.
And so they kept pounding us with, oh, yeah, sure.
And now they can use that as an excuse because we've already been softened up with body blows.
Yeah.
Oh, the lexicon, it's already there.
Oh, these poor people.
Yes, they're in South America.
They have to leave there because of climate change.
It's, you know, extreme weather events have made, you know, have you seen the flooding?
Did you see what happened in Libya?
Of all places that nothing happened, South America is one of them.
The clock is ticking.
But it is not too late to act.
It's not too late to act, everybody.
Okay, because this will save their own sustainable development goals, their own self-imposed rules.
So let's just talk briefly about the Mediterranean.
There are 15 ships in the Mediterranean operated by NGOs, that's non-governmental organizations.
And I think we need to explain a non-governmental organization.
And I'll give it a shot, you stop me where you think I'm wrong.
A non-governmental organization is an organization that is actually funded by government, a government or sometimes multiple governments, and they are doing the work that the governments want them to do.
I think they're usually non-profit, that may be a requirement.
I think they're all non-profit.
This is also a huge slush fund.
And I'll just give you a little example, jumping ahead a bit.
Big story in the Dutch press about this Dutch family called van der Valk.
And they have owned hotels in the Netherlands for as long as I can remember.
I know a couple of them.
I know, you know, like some of the cousins.
Not the one that's in the news.
I know one of the big guys.
He is very famous.
He was an international arms dealer.
Of course, I would know him.
He was in the aviation business and he helped me sell a helicopter one time.
Nice guy.
Joop.
Joop from the... Joop.
And so these hotels, this hotel chain, they're now suing a member of their own family.
Because they were getting all these contracts for asylum seekers, as they're known in the Netherlands, or irregular migrants, that's a new term.
You know, 900 hotel rooms, big deal.
So one of their cousins was arranging the rooms and he was in between the government saying, hey, we need hotel rooms, and his own family.
In the past five years, he made 119 million euros For just sitting in between the government and the family with their hotel rooms.
This is the kind of slush that runs through these NGOs.
He was, of course, an NGO.
And the funny thing is, the family suing the cousin, like, hey, you ripped us off.
We want $20 million of that $119 million.
That's the funny part.
Yeah, that is funny.
So you've got these W2EU.info, you've got websites, these NGOs, they're helping people, they're literally helping people in multiple languages, what to do, where to go, what country's appropriate for you, best way to get there, what ship to use.
You know, and then from time to time, you know, you see, oh, well, sorry, that one didn't work, you know, a couple people drowned, whatever.
You know, the minute one of those ships, one of those little rubber boats is sent out, in comes the big, the big NGO, and oh, we'll pick them up, don't worry about it.
So I look at it.
Well, yes, yes.
Good.
I was going to interrupt you here.
Yeah, go for it.
So we can get a sense because you're attacking NGOs in general, and they probably should be attacked in general.
We don't even know who they are.
But if you go to human rights careers, they have the 15 biggest in the world.
And it's interesting to note these these things are there.
They're huge.
And I'm going to name them.
Because it's names that are very familiar to everybody.
Number one.
Number one.
Established in 1919.
Save the Children.
Two.
Oxfam International.
Three.
Doctors Without Borders.
BRAC.
Number four.
B-R-A-C.
This is a... I know this one.
This is monstrous.
This is based in Bangladesh, and it takes care of most of the South Asia area.
Yeah, you've never heard of it in the United States, but you have heard of number five.
World Vision.
It's a Christian operation.
Did they do the song contest?
The World Vision song contest?
Or is that something else?
No, no.
It's not the song contest.
That's funny though.
It has a billion dollars in operating revenue.
Revenue.
Oh, yeah.
Not – okay.
So I have – I'm going to read a few more.
You got one more?
Yeah.
We need to know these.
International Rescue Committee, this is one of the guys moving people.
Let's go to number seven.
Catholic Relief Services.
They're big.
They are big.
They're in the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
That's a billion dollar operation, that one is.
Yeah, here's another one.
Can I just say there's a lot of religious organizations.
Yeah, sure, that's the way you can get money that way.
Danish Refugee Council is number eight.
And the problem with the churches and religious organizations It's almost in their charter.
In the charter of God, you've got to help people, and so everyone wants to help people, and then the government says, well, you be an NGO, we'll give you $7,000 per migrant, and it becomes a business.
And then you can't stop, because you grow!
You keep growing, and then you see these people as clients, and they're not even brothers and sisters anymore.
They just become things to move, because you're Your faith-based organization grows and grows and grows and grows because the money grows and it's a trap.
You can't get out of it.
You start serving money as the master.
Yeah.
I used to read a few more of these because these are interesting.
Care International's number nine.
That's a big one that we've all heard of.
Amnesty International is number 10.
They're the ones that we deal with a lot.
Here's one, Action Aid International, which you probably haven't heard of.
How about the Red Cross?
They've got to be on this list.
I don't think they are actually, they're too small.
Direct Relief, I'll just read the last three.
Direct Relief, Action Against Hunger, and the Anti-Slavery International, and last on the 15th, and that is the 15th is Plan International, which is another one I haven't heard of, but it's big.
It's established in 1937.
So what I have in the show notes is, how many pages is this?
Six pages, must be a couple hundred.
The IOM, the International Office of Migration, approved list of NGOs.
And these are the guys who are in the 5 to 100 million dollar range.
So these are the small ones.
One Love Movement, ActionAid, Adesso, African, I'm doing, it's alphabetical, African Disabled Refugee, ALEF, Alternative Espaces, I can't even read that one.
So what do we have?
Asian Human Rights and Culture Development Forum.
Let's see.
Center for Development Support Initiatives.
I'm just jumping around.
Center for Refugee Studies.
Deutsche Wellenhilfe.
Danish Refugee Council.
Harvard University.
Hello!
Harvard University.
Human Appeal.
Kids in Need of Defense.
Also known as KIND.
John Hopkins University.
Department of Political Science.
NGO.
It's an NGO.
Migrants Organize.
I mean, I could just go on and on and on and on.
So, this is huge.
And of course, you'll see a lot of Nepotism in these outfits.
A lot of nepotism.
Carries kids, as an example.
My favorite, which I'm surprised it didn't show up on your list, is welcome.us.
Have you heard of this?
You should have.
Actually, I have.
Because welcome.us, originally created in partnership with American Express Global Business Travel, The NGO helped relocate Afghans to the U.S.
during 2021 and 2022, now working in tandem with Miles for Migrants.
While retaining its association with AEGBT, the NGO is committed to funding flights into the U.S.
interior for migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Ukraine, and Nicaragua.
This is an interesting outfit because the leadership Just so you know, let's look at the leadership here.
Welcome.us.
Oh, wouldn't you know?
Here are the honorary co-chairs.
Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, George W. Bush, Laura Bush, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Rosalyn Carter.
And then you look at this huge list of a hundred people.
Airbnb are in on it.
Of course!
The CEO and the COO.
Why?
Airbnb gets paid to house migrants.
You gotta have Yo-Yo Ma in there.
Yep, Yo-Yo Ma's on there because, you know, we had a great gala.
Yo-Yo Ma played.
Yeah.
And then look at the CEO Forum.
Julie Sweet Accenture, Sundar Pichai, Google, the Adobe dude, Narayan, let's see, CEO from Advent, AIG, Airbnb, Airbnb Marketing, Amazon, American Express, Tim Cook, hello Tim, Bank of America, Blackstone, Business Roundtable, Chubb, Comcast, Delta, Gap, you know, we'll clothe them.
Amazon is interesting.
Amazon provided for free delivery of essential goods and services.
Not the goods and services.
Not the goods.
Didn't give anything free to these people.
No, we just give you free delivery.
Oh, just like you're a Prime Member.
It's right!
Migrants become Prime Members in America.
Automatic Prime Members.
So, now we get to something very interesting.
As of October 1st, there is a new Director General of the IOM.
Well, wouldn't you know, it's an American lady.
Her name is Amy Pope.
And so this is active as of October 1st, before joining IOM, Director General.
What is this?
Why do they get to use these titles?
I think we should be Director Generals of the No Agenda Show.
In fact, that should be a level you can donate for.
What is this Director General business?
Hair Director General, in your case.
Doesn't that sound douchey?
It sounds totally douchey.
What is the point of these phony baloney military... Military titles, yeah.
And they're not even real military... I mean, they sound like some... It's like His Excellency at the UN.
Oh, here's His Excellency.
Oh, I bet you they get announced like that.
Her Excellency, Director General Amy Pope!
Mm-hmm.
No doubt about it.
Before joining Iowa, Pope served as the Senior Advisor on Migration to U.S.
President Biden and served as the Deputy Homeland Security Advisor to President Obama.
While working at the White House, Director General Pope developed and implemented comprehensive strategies to address migration in areas such as countering trafficking in persons, resettling refugees and vulnerable people, and preparing communities to respond and adapt to climate-related crises.
She worked for Clinton in the State Department.
The State Department is the largest funder of the International Office of Migration.
It's our agenda, it's our money, we're the ones funding it.
We're financing it.
The disaster they're bitching and moaning about in New York, Chicago, and elsewhere, not to mention Texas, because who the hell cares what they think.
Let me play some clips here.
This is from Africa today.
I had to go far to get a little information about our new UN migration chief and what she's up to.
The International Organization for Migration laid out her vision for tackling irregular migration on Monday, and stressed the economic benefits migration can have on the countries receiving migrants.
Speaking from Geneva, Amy Popp focused on the evidence that migration can boost economies by providing well-needed workers a new innovation.
The evidence is fairly overwhelming that migration actually benefits economies.
And when you look at economies that have had a significant influx of migrants over the years, if you look at how they're performing in the future, we see overwhelmingly that people tend to be better off as a result of migration.
Where is this data?
Hello, Chicago!
Where's this data?
Don't worry, Chicago.
It's gonna be great.
This is the whole thing.
They just make it up.
Yes!
Whether it's because it's fueling innovation, it's fueling... They fuel innovation!
Somehow they fuel innovation.
Yeah!
It's phenomenal!
So do the homeless for that matter.
As a result of migration.
Whether it's because it's fueling innovation, it's fueling labor supply, whether it's fueling the renovation or revitalization of aging communities, migration on the whole is a benefit.
Or gardeners.
Now, let's just go back to the former New York banker.
We win because we've got new people coming in.
Our population grows.
They're fueling the economy!
They're fueling it!
Migration, on the whole, is a benefit.
Pop also decried what she called the normalization of death in the Mediterranean Sea.
People are coming because they're getting jobs.
And if there wasn't an economic opportunity for them to take advantage of on the other side, they wouldn't come.
So our goal should be increasingly to build out regular, realistic pathways for people, recognizing that there are job opportunities, whether it's high skill or low skill.
And that our best opportunity, and this is where the EU leadership is especially needed, and where we've seen very important developments in this space, but recognizing... In the space!
That's our actual country that she's talking about.
We see great developments in the space.
Because these people, they're great workers, doesn't matter if they're low-level, high-level, they're fabulous, they're obedient, they'll do what they tell them to.
But if we're really going to stop People crossing the Mediterranean on rickety boats and dying as they do so.
We need to approach this situation far more comprehensively.
COP recently won her bid to become the first woman to lead the UN Migration Agency, defeating the current IOM Director General, Antonio Vitorino, in a vote for the position.
So they had a vote.
We had a vote.
Hey, we fund that thing.
Our person should be running it.
We need the Director Generalship because it's coming down to the wire here, people.
We need to replace these lazy Americans.
They're no good.
They can't get by.
They're basically saying you can get people from other countries to live on the slave wages that Americans live on, which is, this is why we have strikes.
You know, inflation is making it hard for auto workers, hospital workers, you know, Kaiser Permanente on strike now, because they're just not getting paid enough.
So how do you solve that?
Bring in people who will be happy to live in a tent.
Problem solved!
Now let's... Screw you, Strikers!
Let's listen to Amy Pope, four years ago when she was in the State Department.
And this is very unfortunate, people shouldn't do these things.
She did a speech at the Oxford Union.
You know, this is where people go and make a case.
It's kind of a fun thing to watch.
Lots of debate.
It's a debate thing.
And she is a Trump hater.
She's a super Trump hater.
And all she talked about was Trump.
Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump.
Trump's no good.
Trump is dangerous.
And in this, she and remember, she's in the State Department, which we'll talk about in a minute.
She gives away why there was such a hate of Trump, because Trump really was a threat to their global migration operation.
Remember, people are showing up, they're not dirty clothes, torn, ripped, they've been on the beast train.
No!
No, they're a little wet from walking through the Rio Grande and they might have gotten a scratch from the razor wire, but otherwise the shoes are new, there's no luggage they're dragging around.
This is a farce.
So, she's going to tell us how stupid Trump was with his border wall.
It's futile!
I posit that he has no foreign policy, that what we're seeing is domestic policy dressed up as foreign policy.
Whether it's climate change, whether it's migration, Iran, North Korea, the president does not have his eye on the long-term strategic interests of the United States.
That's the stuff that we run, the elites, the globalists.
We know what's good for the world, not this yokel.
There was a spectacular debacle when the President tried to meet with the North Koreans.
And where was the President when North Korea was testing their missiles?
The President was talking about the Southwest border wall.
Now listen carefully because she's going to tell us exactly how sophisticated the globalist human trafficking operation really is.
Now, is that American foreign policy?
I ask you, that was the national security issue that if you turned on any news station in the United States, he would be speaking about.
The Southwest border wall.
Now, I spent many, many years working on issues involving Mexico and Central America, and I can tell you, and I'm sure you all know this, that their border wall is not actually a very effective deterrent in the 21st century.
There are bad actors coming out of Central America and Mexico, but these are sophisticated, multinational, very well financed, Organizations that traffic in drugs, that traffic in people, and that traffic in arms.
And they have submarines.
And they have vast, sophisticated tunnels under our border.
And they have air technology.
They have a million different ways to get around a border wall.
That's right, the NGOs are multinationals, well-funded, they got the tunnels, they have submarines, they have air technology.
Who do you think you are with your stupid wall?
We have a million ways to bring our irregular migrants in around that.
Because we run the world!
Finally.
And this one I think doesn't get enough attention, but I think it's critically important.
President Trump is eroding the institutional norms and relationships.
That's us.
He's eroding our gig.
Everything was fine.
We've got all these multi-billion dollar NGOs.
We've got our kids and our grandkids working at the little NGOs.
Everything was fine.
Why are you doing this, Trump?
In a way that is much more insidious than bureaucratic disruption.
And this is happening in two ways.
First, it's the relationships with our partners, with NATO, with United Kingdom, with Europe.
By devaluing these relationships, he devalues American power around the world.
Because we are foam finger number one.
What we do, people have to do as well.
Now America's power is not just because we have a strong economy and a strong military.
It's because we can lead and others will follow.
When we dealt with Ebola, it wasn't just the United States going into West Africa.
It was the UK.
It was France.
It was partners around the globe.
We led.
They followed.
We lead the world.
It doesn't matter if it's Ebola or Zika or COVID.
We lead.
We're the best.
We know what we're doing.
We're the elites.
We are, in fact, the swamp here.
She's saying it.
And second, the president's Public humiliation and disparagement of his advisors is deeply dangerous to America's positioning around the world.
And I know this just seems like bureaucracy.
You're draining the swamp.
But it takes real work to come to an agreement with another nation.
Yeah, we have to go to Brussels.
We have to have dinners.
There's parties.
I mean, we have to dress up all the time.
It takes real work to organize, you know, all the money we take from our American citizens and give it to ourselves and to our organizations, our air technology and our submarines.
There is a building of relationships and negotiating of agreements that happens time and again before the president sits down at a table with another world leader.
Well, I mean, you can't just sit down and have a chat.
We have to have all kinds of meetings!
And that's not happening here.
And every time the President disparages his Secretary of State, his Secretary of Defense, his National Security Advisor, his defense specialists and advisors.
Specialists?
He is saying to the world, you can't trust these guys.
I don't trust them, why should you trust them?
Exactly!
And that is incredibly dangerous for what the United States needs to accomplish around the world.
Okay, so it's very clear.
They were all mad and angry.
He's upsetting the apple cart.
This is how we've been skimming money off for years.
This is how we're going to get our friends with business, cheap labor.
They do not care about anybody but themselves.
Quick clip here.
She just was voted as the Director General of the IOM.
Here she is.
She's in front of the United Nations building.
And listen to the arrogance.
The bottom line is that humans are going to move, right?
That is part of human nature and it is the most basic fundamental human adaptation strategy.
So for me, it's not a question of whether people move.
It's a question of how they move and whether we as international actors can build out ways for them to... Do you hear what she's saying?
It's a question whether we as international actors on the global stage, whether we can move people around like chess pieces to make the world more equitable.
That's what they're saying here.
Oh, they move.
And whether we as international actors can build out ways for them to move so that they are not exploited, so that they have the... So that, you know, we don't want an actual coyote moving around.
We want them to arrive clean, clean with clean shoes.
We want them all.
So we'll take care of you.
We need ways.
We're going to make migration paths potential to reach their own human development, but also so they can contribute most effectively to the communities where they ultimately end up.
The other thing is, as I said, that the demographics are really going to push, I think, all governments to start to explore migration as a way to respond to their own individual challenges.
So whether you're a country who has a boom in young people, but not enough opportunities at home, or you're a country with an aging population who can no longer sustain its economy, there are going to be Interests that begin to align and I think our job is to help make sure they do so well.
Okay, let's take this to a local level.
We now have Venezuelans, we have a lot more, but we have Venezuelans in New York City and it's a problem.
Oh, first we get them into the Roosevelt Hotel.
All right, that's good.
A lot of money being made there by the Roosevelt Hotel.
Probably some cousin sitting in the middle of that one organizing it all.
And then we have suddenly temporary protected status for Venezuelans.
And it's like, OK, well, I mean, I have a stepdaughter in New York.
It hasn't been super easy for her to keep to keep jobs.
You know, the cool jobs have been shut down because there's no more money.
She's now in the service industry, literally in a service industry.
It wasn't easy for her to get that job.
There's a lot of people lining up to get it.
But somehow, somehow, this is all working perfectly well.
And then we bring in the governor of the state, Hochul, who was a part of the system.
You could just look at her hairdo.
Pierre did it.
And what has she arranged here?
Oh, this is Phenomenal!
It's working!
Turning now to the migrant crisis, Governor Hochul announcing more than 18,000 job openings with nearly 400 employers who are open to hiring migrants.
Alright, Fox 5's Chris Walsh joins us now in studio.
Chris, how does the state plan to connect migrants to these companies?
Well, Steve and Teresa, they're actually going to open up a web-based portal starting tomorrow in the state's Department of Labor website.
Now, the governor says this means that more than 40,000 Venezuelan migrants who've come to New York will soon be able to hold the job.
And she says companies are lining up to hire them.
In the words of Governor Kathy Hochul, this is a big deal.
This This being the fact that on Tuesday, migrants from Venezuela who arrived prior to July 31st will be able to apply for temporary protected status.
Hochul estimates that 40% of the nearly 120,000 migrants who've come to New York are from Venezuela.
She says they'll now be able to apply for work through a portal on an app.
And luckily for me, because I tested it out, the app is simple.
It's not cumbersome.
Nearly 400 companies across the state have already stepped up, offering 18,000 jobs.
Nearly a quarter of them in the restaurant industry.
Hot Bread Kitchen is one such company.
They provide culinary training and help place individuals in the food service industry.
The New York City food industry needs the talent, grit, and creativity of the migrants coming to New York.
Okay, so this sounded like there were a bunch of companies in New York that are desperate to have people fill these jobs, which my stepdaughter got with luck and perseverance.
So I look at this and I see the CEO of Hot Bread Kitchen.
She's the one saying, hey, this is great!
Leslie Abbey, Esquire.
Go look at her LinkedIn.
She's the Chief Executive Officer of Hot Bread Kitchen.
She doesn't look like a food person.
Now look down the list.
Her previous experience.
Deputy Executive Director, Chief Operating Officer of Covenant House, New York.
Uh-huh.
City of New York, Administration for Children's Services.
Huh.
Let me take a look at this Hot Bread Kitchen.
It's a non-profit!
It's funded with five million dollars, probably New Yorkers money.
Five million dollars.
This is not a job.
This is a non-profit.
And then you start to look at what this thing is, this hot bread kitchen.
Oh, it's a write-off.
They've got parties, they've got pictures of, oh boy, we've had all these fantastic, we've raised so much money.
Oh, our featured partners, Bloomberg Philanthropies, Google, Citibank, Denise and Michael Kellen Foundation, Chanel, Goldman Sachs, Haagen-Dazs.
This is party time.
Write it off.
Oh, we're doing so well for these immigrants.
We're doing such a good job, Cathy.
Good job, Abby.
No!
No, you're giving them our money.
Again.
This is not an actual job.
And then the mayor of New York?
Shut up.
One of his assistants who showed up on television with Chanel jewelry, which I thought was somewhat inappropriate, she gave the wrong message and they, oh no, this mayor is a problem, we've got to sideline him.
The move comes a day after Hochul on Face the Nation called for a limit on who can come across the Mexican border.
Which is just theater.
It is too open right now.
And a day after Mayor Eric Adams' chief advisor went even further.
Close the borders.
The mayor likely would have been asked about migrants on Monday, but his staff has instituted a new policy.
He will only take off-topic questions one day a week.
We're going to have one day a week so I can do the business of running this very complicated city.
So I reached out to the mayor's office regarding that advisor's comments that the federal government should close the border.
A spokesperson says that is, quote, not the position of the administration.
Now, speaking of the mayor, Adams on Wednesday will depart on a trip with stops in Mexico, Ecuador, and Colombia in an effort to learn about the issues at the border and better understand conditions along a migrant's journey.
He will return to the city next Sunday.
The mayor has to be re-educated!
That's what's happening there.
You're not, hey, you're not taking any questions anymore.
No answering of questions.
And we're taking you out of the city.
You gotta go down.
We're gonna re-educate you.
No, they're gonna wine and dine him.
Of course!
That's re-education.
Yeah.
Come on in to the party, brother.
You don't really wanna save New York.
At all.
So this is mainly coming from the United States State Department, which makes total sense.
Just look at who's run it in the past, especially during Obama, Hillary Clinton.
Well, the woman is part of that clique of females that's still there.
They're in the old Biden administration.
Oh, yeah.
The same ones.
Lisa Monaco, the twerp.
Lisa Monaco is also a twerp.
They're all kind of twerpish.
A lot of lesbians too.
A lot of lesbians.
Valerie Jarrett, Susan Rice, the whole group.
So winding this up, there's actually a very interesting guy on the Tim Pool Show, which someone sent me a clip, Mike Benz.
Now he's, he worked in the State Department.
He's now like an internet freedom guy and he's like, well, he's a cyber guy.
If you looked at his job, he was basically in marketing communications at the State Department, but he spells out what he witnessed and what it was like there and what the state, we know from the Economic Hitman book, We know what's going on, but it's good to get a little reminder.
My colleagues at the State Department were actually some of the smartest people I met in government and outside of government.
There is an animating spirit of Machiavellian world conquest that permeates that institution in a way that it doesn't at HUD or even at the White House.
There's a sense of the bigness of the world and the interconnectedness of the world and the opportunities in the world to go region by region and stack the deck in ways that are advantageous to State Department stakeholders.
This is one of these things where until the 2016 election happened and the national security state, which has always, you know, come home in so many ways, you know, I mean, you can make an argument that even the Martin Luther King stuff and a lot of the COINTELPRO stuff was a proxy attack on the Vietnam War.
The FBI only got the counterintelligence predicate on him because of him being backed by Stanley Levison, who was said to be a sort of communist Soviet, and you had DOD and CIA involvement in that FBI activity as well.
There was always sort of a crackdown on this, but what they've done in the modern era has actually shook my I used to think that we've got this Department of Dirty Tricks that we started to set up after World War II.
The 1947 Act, we create the CIA.
We change the name of the War Department to the Defense Department to make it sound like we're not doing war.
We create this entire NGO swarm army.
We create these incredible embeddings between the national security state and the media.
A soft power projection apparatus that could effectively control the political economies of any country we capacity build.
But there was always sort of a sense, well, it's for the benefit of the people who live here.
The bigger the American empire gets, the better off Americans are.
More jobs are, you know, if Chevron does well, well, that's more people who's got jobs in Texas and in Oklahoma.
If Pepsi Cola does well, you know, that's more for shipping.
There was this At one point, there was a connective tissue between the people who live here and the empire abroad.
And at some point, you know, pick your evolution point in globalization, you know, whether that was, you know, in the 70s, whether that was in the 90s when the offshoring really hit the hay and, you know, China joined the WTO and cheap labor.
There were so many different points of departure from that.
And no surprise, Ukraine is no different.
No better example of that than what's happening with the Biden family in Ukraine.
I mean, it is like a State Department operation to help a very small number of economic stakeholders.
And by the way, I'm not even making a formal opinion on this.
I understand both sides of the Ukraine-Russia thing.
That's not my bag, so to speak.
I just care about freedom on the internet.
But in order to understand why it is that you get censored for talking about Ukraine stuff, or political movements who are proxies for that get censored, is because you now have a State Department vested interest in censoring U.S.
American voices.
Because if they get a Matt Gaetz in as speaker, Or if they get a sufficient enough caucus in the House Appropriations Committee to be able to kill funding, then there goes the war effort.
And then there goes the ability for Burisma to monetize the shale in the eastern region.
Or Chevron, Halliburton, Shell, and Exxon, which all have billion dollar gas contracts with the Ukrainian government.
All of that goes away if American people have sovereign capacities to think for themselves and decide with those free thoughts to enact, to have political representation that votes for that.
So there's, this is, there's no, after Smith-Mont was modernized and after, you know, there's been no oversight, there's no Justice Department pushback, we're now in a brave new world where, you know, it's the State Department's world and we're living in it.
Totally.
I like his line early on in that little soliloquy where he said They want to make everything advantageous to the State Department stakeholders, not to the American public.
No, of course not.
To the stakeholders, which means the people that are corrupt.
Yeah.
In a nutshell.
And there's a, man, this is a great video.
It went viral, unfortunately, on Instagram, so I'm sure it's gone.
It was this woman, a young woman who was working at Cartier in New York during the UN General Assembly.
And the story she gives is she was in essence an intern for a couple weeks.
She's at Cartier.
Olenska Zelenska, Zelensky, comes by.
That's Zelensky's wife.
And she's trying to be really helpful, like, would you like to see our selection?
And the way she says it is, I don't think you're, I need your opinion!
And she got this girl fired, but as the girl was leaving, she took a copy of the invoice of what Zelensky purchased that day, $1.1 million worth of jewelry at Cartier.
And she shows it, she shows a copy of the invoice, whether it's true or not, I think that's the level we're talking about here.
That's the level of corruption.
Well, if anyone wants to go look at the Scott Ritter documentary on Zelensky, Volume 1, the amount of property that guy owns all around the world.
Oh yeah, big houses, everything, yeah.
Yeah, it's ridiculous.
So while that's taking place in New York with these poor people, here's the Chicago residents.
We were going to have a shelter at this particular location.
You are one!
You don't work for us!
This is a local alderman.
Who two days ago said, yeah, on Saturday, uh, we're going to turn the, it's the Amundsen Park, which is not a poor neighborhood, but it's a, it's a thriving park.
They got old guys playing checkers.
They got kids playing basketball.
They're going to turn it into a migrant camp.
And they just shoved it down everybody's throat!
And the residents are like, no!
No!
You work for us!
It's not a poor black neighborhood, but it's predominantly black neighborhood.
And the citizens just took over.
Mr. Glover, you're going to get an opportunity to speak.
No, no, no, no.
Turn the mic on.
We're tired of hearing politicians.
Turn the mic on.
Turn the mic on.
Good evening, everyone.
I'll show you how disrespectful this is.
On the 5 o'clock news, they projected that the migrants would be here by Saturday.
Welcome to the welcoming city.
Well, I got to tell you, only certain areas are welcoming.
That's us.
They say they want to use this park, but let me tell you, LaSalle Street, Clark Street, all the office buildings, nobody wants to be in the loop anymore.
They all want to move west because of new buildings with better amenities.
Those buildings are empty right now with water, heat, and everything.
But they don't want the migrants down there.
We're not anti-migrants, but this is so disrespectful for them to just sit up here with this crap and we're supposed to listen to it.
There you go.
That's what's really happening.
There's now 500 people sleeping at O'Hare Airport.
It's everywhere.
So, when we look at this, we have to take our minds out of the stories of, well, there's the rape tree, and it's the human traffickers.
The human traffickers are these people.
It's the NGOs.
It's the State Department.
Let's just boil it down.
Our own State Department is doing this to us.
The State Department controls the USAID budget.
Whoever becomes president, that's the main thing.
Stop the money flow.
Withdraw from the United Nations, certainly the IOM.
That's the only thing.
And it's doing damage in Europe.
Our State Department, when we lead, everybody else follows.
That's your problem right there.
Look at who's coming in into Western Europe.
Are these families?
No!
These are healthy young men, And I love the, it's a military, they're bringing young men of military age in.
They're not going to take over with a military coup?
No!
They're coming in to take your job.
Cheap jobs.
Cheap jobs.
Good paying jobs.
Good paying non-union jobs.
Because you're being a problem.
You're striking.
Why don't you take your slave wage?
These people will, look, they'll live in a tent.
They're in Chicago.
They're Chicagoans.
So that's what's going on.
It's the State Department of these United States.
That's what's doing it.
And it's been a plan for a long time.
Angela Merkel, Kalergi.
So, and that's why, oh, you called the Great Replacement Theory, you're a xenophobic, racist, conspiracy theorist.
No, it's because we saw your document and it literally said migration replacement, and we kind of thought that was a bad thing, and we called you out on it, and then, oh, I'm sorry.
And that's why now in Europe, opposing mass migration is about to be a crime.
So if you post against mass migration, there's a very well-known documentary program in Holland called Zembla.
And they've been really good for a long time.
And they did a hit piece.
They went to these people who had posted anti-migration tweets.
And they went undercover and, you know, in essence exposed them as being horrible, xenophobic, racist a-holes by showing their tweets, but they edited the tweets where someone would be saying, hey, you know, these guys are going to get Either beat out of here or thrown out of the country.
They kind of edited that to saying, these people should be beaten or thrown out!
But they just edited the tweets.
And so... That's what you do.
It's Ancilla, the black box organization.
They have the online stuff.
They exposed this and now this Zembla episode has been removed from the internet.
After people were fired from their jobs for being xenophobic a-holes against the migration.
This is what's happening.
Oh, don't talk against it.
Don't say anything.
Well, this sort of thing brings me to some clips and it may be a segway if you want to get out of this.
Yeah, I do.
I'm waiting for you.
This idea of censoring at that level...
It's recently been tested in California, and I have some clips on this.
Cool.
Because if you listen to these clips, it's actually hair-raising when you see what they were up to and what they're trying to do.
And there was a law passed in California, which was then unpassed, which required doctors to abide by government guidelines insofar as recommendation of vaccines, the therapies, whatever.
No ivermectin, obviously.
Take a shot.
And this law was passed and signed by Newsom.
They were sued over this, and let's play clip one.
A statewide reversal of a law in California.
Governor Gavin Newsom has now done away with portions of a so-called misinformation law targeting doctors, signed into law by his own hand last October.
Under that law, doctors would have been forced to follow government narratives on things like masks and vaccines, or risk losing their medical licenses.
Moments ago, we spoke with Laura Powell, an attorney with Californians for Good Governance.
Laura Powell, thank you so much for joining us.
Great to be on the show.
Now that portions of California's COVID misinformation law have been done away with, what's next for you and your clients who are actually suing the state over this very law?
Yes, I'm co-counsel with the New Civil Liberties Alliance on a case with five plaintiffs who are all doctors who challenged this California censorship law we got in a preliminary injunction in January.
So the law has not been enforced since it passed last year, came into force January 1st, and just a few weeks later we had a preliminary injunction.
So now we're anticipating, Newsom has now signed the law repealing AB 2098.
It will take effect on January 1st.
I imagine the state will now Move to have our case dismissed as it's moot.
And I assume that our lawsuit was part of the motivation for them repealing AB 2098 because they saw the writing on the wall and saw they weren't likely to win, that this law was going to be declared unconstitutional.
And they're hoping to avoid a legal precedent that would bind in the future to make a definitive statement about how this law violated the constitutional rights of doctors.
And on that note, how would this law have impacted the doctor-patient relationship if it had stayed in law?
And if nobody gets it out there, I'll explain afterwards.
This might go to two.
And on that note, how would this law have impacted the doctor-patient relationship if it had stayed in law?
Well, I always thought that a large part of this law was sort of the statement it made to tell doctors that they should be afraid of speaking their mind and telling patients what they truly think, that they needed to stick to the government narrative.
So that chilling effect on their speech would happen regardless of whether or not the medical board actually used the law to go after doctors.
But what happens there is that the doctor-patient relationship gets damaged because Patients can't trust their doctors.
And if they believe that the doctors aren't telling them their honest opinion, but are telling them what they think they need to say to protect their medical licenses.
So that erosion of the doctor-patient relationship was one of the many reasons why this was a bad policy.
Yeah, this was exactly what happened in COVID.
I guess people even in California noticed that that was not a good idea.
So, it gets more interesting.
This is the last of the clips.
You've got two more.
Oh, okay.
What's happened here is that the government, or Newsom and his lefty buddies, they saw what was going to happen.
They were going to lose this case.
It was writing on the wall.
This looked like it was a trial balloon for how they can rewrite the law.
And in your view, given this was enacted into law in the first place, could this happen again down the road?
They pulled the plug on this thing before anything could happen.
And so far as precedent's concerned, which I think is just the sickest thing I've ever heard.
Play this third part three.
And in your view, given this was enacted into law in the first place, could this happen again down the road?
Well, without a definitive statement from the courts that it's unconstitutional, we have the preliminary injunction, but that wasn't a complete opinion from the courts.
It could happen again.
Although I think what is happening now is we're going to see a change of tactics.
I think repealing this law was a victory for us.
We won the battle, but there's still the war to win.
And I think the state is changing its tactics.
We saw the bill's author stating that they could still go after misinformation from doctors based on pre-existing law.
And I know of one case where this is happening, that a doctor who said things like, masks don't prevent the spread of viruses, is having their license threatened, not under AB 2098, but under the pre-existing general law that says that a doctor who's negligent could lose their license.
So I think we're, this is a recognition from the state that this tactic was a failure, but I think they are still going to look for ways to try to control what people say on the topic of COVID.
Wow.
Wow.
So, not this time.
It was sick when they repealed the law because they only repealed it so that case wouldn't finish.
So there wouldn't be precedence in the law.
There's a fourth clip you said?
Yeah, there's a fourth one.
It gets a kicker in here, I guess.
And Laura, you actually touched on this a little bit, but given that medical treatment has for ages been tailored for the individual, do you see misinformation laws like this one disrupting that patient-doctor relationship in the future?
Yeah, well, that's an interesting question is that the ethical obligations of a doctor go to their patient.
And one thing I've noticed, you can see sometimes there's a switch of language where they say that the doctors have an obligation to public health and that their obligation isn't so much to the patient, but what they believe is best for everyone.
And this isn't how medical ethics has worked in the past.
And that seriously causes if you're a patient and you believe that your doctor is not telling you to get vaccinated, for example, because they think it's best for you, but because they think it's best for others, that is really going to undermine your trust in your doctor.
Oh wow!
Misinformation!
Now the interesting thing here is this has been thematic.
This is you want to wear a mask because you don't want to get others sick.
Yep.
They've managed to switch the narrative so nobody's It's to eliminate the idea of individualism.
We have to stop thinking in terms of individuals.
We have to start thinking in terms of the collective.
This is all Marxist stuff.
Transmodernism.
It's so obviously Marxist stuff.
Well, this kind of brings me into a couple of short clips I have here.
Which has been brewing.
We don't, I mean, there's two laws in Western Europe.
The Digital Services Act from the European Union, which I'll talk about in a moment.
But the one we've been looking at, especially in relation to the de-platforming of Russell Brand, or de-monetizing of Russell Brand, and probably removal of Rumble or whatever, was the online safety bill.
And this is the big UK Ministry of Truthiness bill about what you can and cannot do on the internet.
And I have, I think a UK law professor, it's on a Zoom, it's like 20 minutes, you should watch the whole thing.
I just pulled out a couple of clips where he's literally talking about some of the Some of the sections of this online safety bill and what it really means, and the first one kind of sets the tone.
These are pretty short.
Part 10, communications offenses.
A person commits an offense, this is a criminal offense, if a person sends another person a message, And that message conveys information that the person knows to be false, and the person has no reasonable excuse for sending the message.
Now, it's important to understand It's not just someone sending a text to someone else.
When they define message, this means anything, any type of communication that's online.
So this would affect search engines.
They're sending messages.
It's not just individuals and of course online providers, whether that's X or Facebook or Rumble or YouTube or anyone.
Anyone sending a message is committing an offence if there's information that's false in it.
So this is really good because messages is, as you said, it's not just an email or a DM.
It could be a podcast, could be a blog post, could be a tweet, could be anything.
And of course you've effectively outlawed lying, which you should, you should be able to lie.
I mean, you send the dick pic and you say, Hey, it's, it's a 20 inches, baby.
You know, that would be a criminal, criminal offense.
It'd be a lie.
And of course there are exemptions.
The very next section, this is section 181, which follows section 180, this lists exemptions from offences.
Okay, so these people are going to be exempt from that law.
A recognised news publisher cannot commit an offense under Section 180.
The BBC, and they're specifically exempt in Section 56, a recognized news publisher, and it says the BBC, and it has a whole list of definitions.
So they're going to approve which organizations are exempt from spreading misinformation.
This is...
So they basically, the guy basically said the BBC can lie but you can't.
Correct.
And this is law, it just has to get, you know, the King has to sign it.
Which by the way, you know, you Brits, you should, I mean, you should look at this like the President, you know, if the President's gonna sign something or veto something, you know, people put pressure on the President, tell him he's not gonna be elected, you know, and it's not the same thing with the King, but you should be outside Buckingham Palace, like, with a guillotine.
This is not okay.
So there will be approved news organizations, and you have to have a code, a special code of conduct, of standards, that you adhere to?
And how are they going to enforce this?
Well, well...
Of course they're going to have, you know, this is, Ofcom is the British, I'd say it's the FCC, but a little bigger than that.
Ofcom is huge.
They really determine a lot.
They determine what can and cannot be done on the airwaves.
So Ofcom apparently.
But there's one other thing, you know, which I think is really important.
I've not seen this publicized anywhere, but section 7 of the bill sets up It gives huge powers to Ofcom, which is a regulator in the UK, and it tells Ofcom they've got to set up immediately a new advisory committee on disinformation and misinformation.
That's fascinating and it's something also that the EU Digital Services Act does because that is Orwell's Ministry of Truth.
Ofcom are going to be told to set up a new committee to basically advise and rule on what is true and what is false and what is What is legal and what is illegal.
And in the EU Digital Services Act, similar idea, they'll have flaggers who will be approved.
You know, so you can be an approved flagger.
I want to be a flagger!
Yeah, that's where this is going.
So then this doctor, professor, I'm going to write that down, flagger.
Then this, he does a little quiz.
A little quiz time everybody.
You can play along at home and you too, trolls.
I'm going to read you a very short couple of sentences.
This is from a piece of legislation which was introduced to protect people from hate speech and it was to regulate journalism.
I want you to tell me Tell me where this was from.
Quote, Editors must treat their subjects truthfully.
Editors must keep out of the newspapers anything which is misleading, offends the religious sentiments of others, or offends a person's welfare, harms their reputation, or makes them appear ridiculous or contemptible.
Unquote.
Where's that from?
All right.
You want to take a guess before we do the big reveal?
It's from the United Nations.
I have no idea.
I actually thought it was Brave New World.
Orwell's 1984.
That's got to be a gag.
That's got to be Orwell's 1984.
Let me see what the trolls say.
Like, that's got to be a gag.
That's got to be Orwell's 1984.
Let me see what the trolls say.
AP style book.
That actually sounds like, yeah.
I think that's close.
Let's see, no one, people are close, but now here we go.
It's section 13 of the editorial law introduced by Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany on the 4th of October 1933.
I was close, I said United Nations.
United Nations, yeah, exactly.
Someone in Germany was close.
They were close.
And so now you understand why we had that Department of Disinformation with the, with the, what was that crazy lady?
Yeah, the one that was singing and dancing.
The one that'd be on Broadway.
Yeah, that one.
So the Digital Services Agency, Digital Services Act is already up and running in Europe and they have, I'm looking at it right now, live at the European Commission, the DSA Transparency Database.
So this, oh, it's changed since yesterday.
So this is Digital Services Act Transparency Database.
On this page, you find some summary statistics of the statements of reasons submitted by providers of online platforms to the Commission.
This page is a beta version of an analytics interface that will be revised, blah, blah, blah.
So what this shows is you can see which platforms are removing content and for what reason.
So if I, uh, hit the, uh, the TikTok here, um, they have, it's actually, it's kind of interesting because the top most active platforms in removing stuff, removing, not saying that, you know, that this is where the most bad, bad stuff is.
TikTok, number one.
Pinterest is number two.
Amazon, three.
Facebook, four.
Blue8.
What's Amazon got to do with the price of bread?
Well, you'd be surprised.
Are they talking about AWS?
Nope.
And Google Maps.
I'll tell you what the most used... Google Maps?
Oh, Google Maps is always blurring stuff because somebody got upset.
So the most used categories.
Scope of platform service.
So you're doing something that's against our terms of service.
Number two, illegal or harmful speech.
Pornography or sexualized content, that's Pinterest.
Pinterest is number one in porn removal.
Violence, violence!
And I think this is your Amazon intellectual property infringements.
So this is where Amazon shines.
They have to remove, you know, the fake Dior stuff and all that.
So, and I would say, if I'm looking at the list, you could look by keyword, illegal or harmful speech is really the top one.
And it's all stuff like hate speech, hate speech, hate speech, anti-LGBT, you know, not inclusive.
But here's the thing.
Of all these platforms in the EU, How many removals per hour do you think we're seeing?
So these are top platforms, there's others, but TikTok, Pinterest, Amazon, Facebook, Google Maps.
How many pieces of content are they removing per hour for the EU market?
1,000.
70,564 per hour.
thousand.
Seventy thousand five hundred and sixty four per hour.
How many people do they have to do this?
Apparently that's their entire payroll.
I mean, is that crazy?
Yeah.
Here are the keywords.
Animal harm.
Broadcasting 2.0.
That's the only way to go.
Here are the categories.
Animal harm.
Adults.
It's not like they're killing animals online, but I guess they're showing it.
Adult sexual material by far the number one.
Age-specific restrictions, biometric data breach, you know, hate speech is number two after other.
You have to kind of go into other... This is an interesting little database.
Is it linked in the show notes?
Yes.
Risk for public health is also quite big.
But hate speech is big.
That would be anti-COVID.
Don't take the vax.
Yeah, exactly.
Let me see if I can find... What is the hate speech?
Let me see.
We can give you some examples here.
Hate speech.
I do not like hate speech.
No, they're not showing me the... Anyway.
Go take a look.
Grounds.
Anyways, the grounds.
Number one, content incompatible with terms and conditions.
So, you know, you're just not allowed to say anything anymore.
So yeah, podcasting 2.0, RSS, blogs.
This is the only way out, people.
Bring back the readers.
We can do it.
We can do it.
And this is what they want here.
It's the same words, the same terms.
That's why Elon is gonna, you know, close registration.
You gotta pay.
You gotta know who you are.
Gotta know who you are.
Gotta have your credit card on file.
Gotta know what you're doing.
That's a foregone conclusion.
What you're up to.
You know what you're up to.
Yeah, it is.
It is a foregone conclusion.
I guess we should just do it briefly since it kind of came up in your clips.
COVID-19. Oh.
COVID-19.
What?
What?
COVID-19.
Get a shot.
Yeah.
Get boosted.
Yeah, we see more boosters.
What?
Oh.
So the COVID booster is off.
People are not able to get it.
The insurance companies aren't paying for it.
I think that this writing was on the wall and that's why they just didn't ship them.
We're not going to manufacture this stuff.
I don't know how that works in In the medical field, but is it like the record business or the book business?
Do you get returns?
It's a flop, forget it.
Turn off the machines, let's print something else.
Seriously, it must be something like that.
They didn't want to send it because people are not, there's no uptake.
I've actually seen them start to do HPV commercials again.
Hey kids, you're going to die of cervical cancer.
Cancer of the throat, boys.
You don't want that.
Look at Michael Douglas.
They're ramping that up again.
They're doing anything to keep the quotas going.
So instead, we need to placate people because we know that this was too early.
We know that the, whatever the deal was, whatever, you know, remember with the, they were saying, was it glitch?
Oh, it's a glitch with the insurance companies.
No, there's no glitch.
They said it would be here around Halloween.
And somehow, I think the marketing was out of step with production.
And so the marketing wasn't ramped up enough.
There's no demand.
They haven't scared people.
There's not enough news reports.
You know, there's too much Trump in the news.
So we're not really getting these COVID.
So let's hold them over.
Let's go back to the testing.
With Dr. Darian Sutton, who's in for Dr. Ashton all week.
It's good to have you, as always.
Great to be here.
And we're talking about a study that shows that at-home COVID tests are actually most effective on the fourth day of symptoms.
That's a little bit of a change from the past, break this down for us.
It's a little bit of a change and an important question as we step into this viral.
So when did this happen?
The best time to test is on the fourth day.
I like the way she says it as though everyone knows it.
Of course we know this.
And why would that, and why?
Obviously, people are going to use the thing when they get symptoms.
It's not going to change.
Well, no, you got to use another pack.
They want to get rid of these tests.
They're all expired.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Well, that's new, too.
But the thing is, fourth day.
Wait until the fourth day.
With Dr. Darian Sutton, who's in for Dr. Ashton all week.
It's good to have you, as always.
Great to be here.
And we are talking about a study that shows that at-home COVID tests are actually most effective on the fourth day of symptoms.
That's a little bit of a change from the past.
Break this down for us.
At a weight?
It's a little bit of a change.
What is that guy going, moo?
What is he doing that for?
Why is the co-host going moo like a cow?
Actually most effective on the fourth day of symptoms.
That's a little bit of a change from the past.
Break this down for us.
What is that about?
Because they know it's bull****.
Yeah, exactly.
Symptoms.
That's a little bit of a change from the past.
Break this down for us.
And a weight.
It's a little bit of a change.
An important question as we step into this viral season.
So in this study they follow... Viral season?
Oh, write that down.
That's a good one.
It used to be flu season.
Now it's the viral season.
You just get viral stuff.
And as we step into this viral season, so in this study they followed over 300 people and they followed those who were newly diagnosed with COVID-19 and they tracked their viral loads and they found that the viral load of these patients was highest on the fourth day of their sickness and also that corresponded with the most or the highest accuracy of those at-home rapid antigen tests.
They found that they were most accurate on the fourth day.
Now why does this happen and why is this different from before?
Many believe, and it's likely true, that the population that we're looking at right now is very different from when we first started this pandemic.
We have a majority of whom have been vaccinated or have had a recent prior infection of COVID-19.
Wait, wait, stop.
What does he mean when he says this pandemic as if it's in play?
Oh, that's interesting.
It's not a pandemic anymore, bud.
Good catch, good catch.
It's also different, you know, people have had it, so they have this thing called antibodies, which is now just accepted.
Remember when that, you have no protection?
Take a shot.
Without the shot, you have no protection.
But now, there's people who had it, so they, you know, they're a little less susceptible.
You know, kind of the way your immune system is supposed to work.
Now, why does this happen, and why is this different from before?
Many, many believe, and it's likely true, that... Many believe, and it's likely true.
This is a great... Wow!
Many believe and it's likely true.
That's much better than there's no evidence.
I think we need to use this.
Many believe and it's likely true is fabulous.
That's a great one.
And this is from a doctor.
This is Dr. Sutton.
Many believe and it's likely true.
You're gonna die.
Yes, they found that they were most accurate on the fourth day.
Now why does this happen and why is this different from before?
Many believe and it's likely true that the population that we're looking at right now Now it's very different from when we first started this pandemic.
We have a majority of whom have been vaccinated or have had a recent prior infection of COVID-19.
And therefore, that takes time to build up your viral load because your body is already understanding what that infection looks like and fighting it.
And so that is one of the reasons why it probably takes a little bit longer to get that rapid test accurate.
Okay, so the test is crap.
The test is complete moo crap.
That's why I was going moo.
You could be arrested in the Great Britain if you keep saying stuff like that.
Well, and now this next bit comes back to what you were talking about in California.
So what should you do in between then, if it's not, you know, accurate until the fourth day?
You know, my recommendation is that if you have symptoms, regardless of whether it's COVID, the common cold, or... Oh, you want to take a guess here?
Well, you should, uh, get a shot.
No, no, no.
But you should probably test, test, test.
It doesn't hurt to take a test.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Hello?
The propaganda's not working on you.
Do not take your test until the fourth day because it won't show you as positive with these expired tests.
Because the tests now don't work as well because your body's fighting it, you see?
So even though you feel like crap, Don't test until the fourth day because the test can't determine if you have COVID until the fourth day when your body's just given up on you.
So what should you do?
Come on, you know the answer.
Wash your hands.
Mask up!
So what should you do in between then, if it's not, you know, accurate until the fourth day?
You know, my recommendation is that if you have symptoms, regardless of whether it's COVID, the common cold, or the flu, I think you should mask up and take precautions so that you decrease the risk of transmitting it to others.
And then if you test initially and it's negative and you're still symptomatic, repeat that test about 48 hours or two days.
Is that the same if you don't have symptoms, if you come in contact with someone?
I believe that if you come into contact with someone and you believe that it was a high-risk interaction, you were very close to someone for a long period of time, then you should basically mind your level of risk when you're transmitting or walking around with other people.
I'd wear a mask, for example, if I wasn't sure, and then get tested.
What kind of interesting, Flubb, when you're transmitting?
He was going to say, when you're transmitting?
Basically, mind your level of risk when you're transmitting or walking around with other people.
He was going to say, are you transmitting?
I'm transmitting right now.
Mask up!
Stop your transmitting!
Mind your level of risk when you're transmitting or walking around with other people.
I'd wear a mask, for example, if I wasn't sure, and then get tested about three or five days after that interaction just to make sure you're not infected.
But these at-home tests, they still work.
They still work, and the expiration dates are changing, and so if you're curious before you throw it out, check online to make sure it's not expired.
Oh, please.
They're changing the expiration dates again!
Oh, and people, and there's still people who believe it.
There's people masked up everywhere.
I'm masked up, I don't, because... Have you seen masked up in Fredericksburg, Texas?
Yes, I have seen some people masked up in the, either old people, to a large degree... A lot of old people breathing their own effluent to bring around their own demise quite rapidly, I'd say.
But okay.
I see a lot of old people, too, that are wearing masks and staggering around.
I did a speech at the Rotary Club.
No one was masked up there.
Those old people are badass.
Did everyone say hi to you?
So, this is something that had been asked months and months ago.
And I said, yeah, sure.
You know, I'm looking at running for mayor, I was like, you know, might as well get the Rotarians.
Oh yeah, you definitely have to hit the Rotary Club.
Often.
Gotta get the Rotarians on my side.
And the Kiwanis, do they have Kiwanis and Lions there?
I'm gonna find out.
I think I need the Kiwanis and the Lions on my side.
Yeah, definitely.
So surprisingly, not everybody was old and decrepit.
There was one lady.
She had a dynamite face facelift.
She looked 50.
I was like, wow.
I almost wanted to say, who did that work?
It's always tempting.
It wasn't that rude.
There were some young people there.
There were some young Rotarians.
Good for them.
Yeah, I'd say, you know, late 20s, early 30s.
The Rotary Club is huge in France.
You're a Rotarian and you go to France and you meet up with those guys that put you up.
My grandfather was a lifelong Rotarian in Armonk, or Rye, it must have been Rye, Westchester.
Oh, that's where all the spooks are Rotarians.
Of course!
It's a great group to be a part of.
Yeah, you'd want to be one there.
And it was interesting because twice, when I spoke at the City Council meeting and at the Rotary meeting, it was the second time in less than a month That I was part of a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance.
I don't think I've been a part of that with a Pledge of Allegiance for 50 years.
Wow.
People don't do that anymore.
Well, they do there.
Yeah.
And then they had their rotary thing.
They also have like a A Pledge to the Rotary.
Yeah, they have four, four things, you know, but is it good for humanity?
I forget what it was, but they had a little, it was like a Boy Scout chant.
Anyway, my point was that I was trying to kind of connect with these people because they want me to talk about podcasting.
Imagine this assignment.
Talk to, talk to the Rotary Club about podcasting.
That sounds like a challenge.
Yes, well, here's how I did it.
I talked about, you know, me as a boy, transistor radio, my love for radio, and then I said... So you're stalling?
No, no, I was leading into... Anybody remember CB radios?
All hands went up!
Because that's 70s.
Oh, everybody had a CB radio.
And then you wait for it.
But I said, you know, that that reach wasn't so far.
It was good, though, because you could talk to citizens nearby, but really was for traffic information and just, you know, yapping about.
But then, you know, I became a ham radio operator.
Anybody a ham?
Whoa.
Five hands.
There's more than none, that's good.
No, but that's more than I've seen in a long time.
And then after my speech, like, hey, you should come to our meetup.
Oh yeah, that was a mistake.
Thursday morning, 7.30 at the diner.
7.30.
I'm gonna go.
Like, we'll help you get your antenna up.
We'll get your gear going.
I love these guys.
Anyway, so yes.
Yeah, still working on my episode.
Lions, and what was the other one I need to hit?
Kiwanis.
Kiwanis?
Kiwanis.
What do they do?
Kiwanis, Kiwanis, Kiwanis.
What do they do?
There's also the Optimists.
We do have a Masonic Lodge here.
Oh yeah, well you definitely want to talk to them.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to thank you for your courtesy.
In the morning to you, the man who put the C in the cow crap.
Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DeMora!
Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Shadow Crane.
The more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, the more ships you see, Is that good?
Yeah, it's up a hundred.
Hey, there you go.
Then they hung with us.
We're like a buck fifty into this.
Good work, Trolls.
Good to have you here.
You can join them at trollroom.io.
A buck fifty.
What hour and fifty minutes?
Yeah, I know.
I'm doing like a broadcast talk.
No, it's just like sports guys.
Sports ball.
Sports talk radio.
Well, give me an example of sports talk radio.
Yeah, the guy came in at $1.50.
He's light, he's $1.50.
He's light, he's $1.50.
Well, we're heavy, we're late, it's $1.50.
But yes, TrollRoom.io is where you can hang out with all the trolls.
You could also use a modern podcast app at PodcastApps.com.
The one that will alert you, now actually, Podcast Guru, people are loving Podcast Guru now.
Then you can... What is this?
Because it alerts you very quickly, like within 30 seconds of the bat signal going out.
It's just the way it functions.
People pop around.
All these apps are compatible, so I use several different ones for different reasons.
But yeah, people like the Podcast Guru.
I like PodVerse, but a lot of people... Your favorite is PodVerse.
You've been plugging it.
Yeah, because it has great notifications and it's not overly complicated.
I like it.
I like it a lot.
And all your old podcasts work in it.
And it's a part of Podcasting 2.0.
So in the UK, Europe, EU, you better get on board with that because everything else is going to be shut down.
Apple's not going to be able to do it.
They're going to block.
They will block probably our networks, our URLs, whatever.
We have to go to Tor and IPFS.
They'll never be able to stop us, but, man, it's getting bad.
And Canada!
Canada!
They're going to be on board with this stuff.
Canada's out of control.
You can also follow us at noagendasocial.com or Mastodon, our little spot on the Fediverse, which is just a small little outpost.
We have 10,000 users from time to time.
Banned outpost.
Very banned outpost.
You can follow John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com, Adam at noagendasocial.com.
Probably best is get your own little Mastodon and follow us so no one else can stop you.
It's pretty easy to set those up yourself now, five bucks a month.
Just don't name it anything like, hey, this is Joe's No Agenda instance, because you'll get blocked immediately.
You don't want that at all.
So Value for Value is the way that we have survived, and it'll be 1600 shows, 16 years this month, which is quite amazing.
And we have never taken corporate money, we have never run ads, we've never done native ads or any kind of endorsements, except for stuff we really believe in but it's never been paid for.
We're happy to do that.
And we asked you to contribute this value, the value that you receive, you know, you get that, like you listen to the show, you learn about what's going on with California law and doctors, you learn about the migration replacement, you are much smarter for it, you can be at the water cooler saying, oh yeah, oh yeah, have you heard this Pope woman?
Who's spending your money on these people now sleeping in your parks?
State Department?
You could look smart.
You'd probably get dates.
I think it's a good way to get dates.
In the office.
I question that, but it's maybe.
Well, if you get a date, it'll be the right person.
Well, that's true.
That's probably the way to look at it.
But it could be some girl that's off the deep end.
Well, it could be a guy.
We have women listening, too.
Nah, we only talk about guys.
No, girls.
We talk about guy stuff.
Screw guys in the office.
So all we ask for in return is time, talent, or treasure.
Now, when we say this, I want to make it very clear.
The time and talent that you're sending back and the treasure, it's not for us, it's for your No Agenda brothers and sisters.
It keeps this thing running.
You know, it keeps everything in operation.
It keeps the time and talent that we have from people keeping servers running.
Hello, Void Zero.
Hello, Sir Ben Rose.
The time and talent.
Darren O'Neal!
Getting everybody warmed up.
Can you imagine?
Can you afford a warm-up guy?
We can't afford a warm-up guy.
At all.
Not a good one who does it for two hours.
This is great.
He's a good warm-up guy.
He's a great warm-up guy.
He's got the energy level, the whole thing.
All we're missing is his arms being thrown up in the air constantly.
We have no agenda stream.
24 hours a day.
The Troll Room.
All of these things are time and talent done by people who we don't have to employ, or look after, or police, or do it, or have meetings with.
This is dynamite!
But it's really for your no-agenda brothers and sisters who keep this all running.
I just want to make that very, very clear.
We so appreciate, so appreciate what everybody does.
Now, another way is, we have our artists.
This is interesting, I have Did I somehow not update the, uh, hmm, didn't update the, the show numbers.
Hold on.
No agenda notes.com.
That's interesting.
Why did that not work?
Um, here we go.
Hmm.
What?
Well, I'm, I'm trying to, I'm trying to get to our show notes from the previous show.
And for some reason, hmm.
It didn't update.
Okay, let me go to noagendanotes.com.
Because otherwise, I don't even know who actually won the artwork.
You do.
You talked about him already on the show, Nick the Rat.
Oh, that's right.
Well, I'm a busy guy.
Okay, hold on.
I just need to get all the show notes up.
Okay.
Here we go.
It was titled Bin Police.
No, that's right, 1995.
No, I got it.
1995.
Title of it was Bin Police, which was okay.
I think we both agreed it was kind of like, eh, it was an okay title.
We didn't really have anything else that worked for us, per se.
But the artwork was indeed done by Nick the Rat.
And right away, I know it's in the social.
That's our little outpost.
ComicStreetBlogger was gleefully posting, It is A.I.!
Nick admitted it is A.I.!
It is A.I.!
Well, you know what?
Nick is better at A.I.
than you are then, Mr. A.I.
Because it works.
Although we both thought the composition was off.
Wouldn't you say that that was our... we did have that complaint?
I didn't have that complaint.
We said something that we didn't... there was something not right about it.
It wasn't up to Nick's standard or... No, you... my comment was that you... I'm surprised you haven't said it was too small!
Well, the No Agenda NGO was not too small.
No, but the Corey Dvorak blurb at the bottom was... Too small!
Anyway, we love having Nick the Rat back, and he hasn't submitted art for, how long, eight years?
How long has it been since he's submitted art?
Well, he at one point, if you look at the ratings, he's the leading guy for a couple years.
Yeah, and then he gave up.
He was on a roll.
He was like Martin J.J.
all of a sudden.
They just kicked ass, and then they quit.
There's another guy I'd like to see come back.
Martin J.J.
Anyway.
We had other submissions.
Let's see, you actually liked the podcast Kill the Radio Star, I think, if I recall properly.
No.
No?
You said the guy with the radio on his head.
You liked that one.
You didn't say?
No, I said I just noted it.
I didn't think it was good.
I thought that the thing we had to talk about was below the Nick the Rat piece, which was ha ha ho ho, NGOs have got to go.
Yeah, a little note, a programming note about these types of slogans, people.
Go, John.
It's hey, hey, ho, ho, not ha, ha.
Hey, hey, ho, ho.
NGOs have got to go.
It's always hey, hey, ho, ho, never ha, ha, ho, ho.
Who did this?
So that was like a fail.
Who did this?
And then the other one was a bunch of people anticipated our discussion of Bowman's pulling the... Big mistake.
Yeah, you anticipated a story that was lame.
I mean, it wasn't something we wanted to talk about.
I mean, yeah, he's the same guy who says that no one's above the law, and then he broke the law by pulling the fire alarm in Congress to slow down the process and got caught on camera because he's an idiot.
And he's a former school principal, so he knows what a fire alarm is.
He thought it was, oh, I thought it would open the door.
I'm a lie.
The guy's a lying creep.
He's a liar.
No, but we never discussed it because it wasn't what I just said is the whole story.
Well, here's what concerns me.
Is this what people want us to talk about?
Well, I would suspect that both, let's see, Corrector Record and Parker Pauly wanted us to talk about it.
Or?
Those are the two who did that.
Or is this more reflective of the drivel that people are subjected to in between our shows?
I think it's the drivel.
It's like, oh, all you hear about, oh, everywhere!
I mean, you should know, something this unimportant?
I mean, it's borderline Taylor Swift level, this.
Yeah.
Taylor Swift.
And all it did is just stop the play.
It just stopped the performance.
You all know that by now.
You know what's going on.
Here, we're $2 into the show.
We're $2 in.
We haven't talked about Kevin McCarthy or haven't used the word speaker.
Outside of the FEMA test once.
Yeah.
Cheesy speakers people have.
Because it's all a little show for your enjoyment.
Just spin your wheels.
This is why you're here.
This is why you come to the No Agenda Show.
This is the beauty of it.
Do we even have any clips on the McCarthy?
I have some thoughts on it, but I don't have any clips.
You know what?
Do you want to do a donation segment clip?
I have one clip.
On the speaker?
Yeah, I do.
I have one clip.
Well, let's see if I have one.
It's... Oh, it's... Yeah, I have one clip.
Do you want this clip?
Alright, play.
Alright, here we go.
The gays are 216.
The gays are 216.
Did he just say that?
The gays...
Sounded like it.
The yeas are 216.
Yeah, he said yeas.
The nays are 210.
This morning, the Capitol in chaos after that historic vote.
Chaos!
This is what I like.
It's historic.
This has never happened before in our lifetime.
Think about that.
Think about that.
Soak in it for a moment.
This is historic.
Never before in America.
These are crazy times.
Vote in the House.
The office of Speaker of the House of the United States House of Representatives is hereby declared vacant.
So this is ABC.
Where do you think they're going to take this at the end of this report?
Uh, climate change?
Close enough!
Eight Republicans led by far-right Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz and joined by all Democrats voted to remove Kevin McCarthy as Speaker.
A humiliating defeat, McCarthy served only nine months, the second shortest tenure of any Speaker in U.S.
history.
His term bookended by Republican infighting.
It took 15 votes for him to become Speaker back in January, forcing him to make concessions to far-right members including a rule change that would allow a single lawmaker to call for a vote to remove him.
That concession proved to be McCarthy's downfall.
He has failed to take a stand where it matters.
So if he won't, I will.
Congressman Matt Gaetz targeted McCarthy for working with Democrats last weekend to pass a bill to keep the government funded until November.
You can say the seeds of this were planted by all of the deals he cut back in January.
You could also say the seeds of this were planted by the rise of the MAGA movement inside the Republican Party over the last 8 or 9 years.
Even though Donald Trump was on the outside of this deal, his fingerprints are all over it.
McCarthy said he has no regrets, but said he won't run for Speaker again.
Our government is designed to find compromise.
I don't regret my efforts to build coalitions and find solutions.
I was raised to solve problems, not create them.
But McCarthy saying the move to oust him was about more than politics.
You all know Matt Gaetz.
You know it was personal.
It had nothing to do about spending.
It all was about getting attention from you.
I mean, we're getting email fundraisers from him as he's doing it.
Join in quickly.
That's not governing.
It's all about Trump.
It's Trump.
claiming former Speaker Nancy Pelosi assured him that Democrats would have his back if Republicans tried to oust him.
In the end, Democrats grew furious with McCarthy, citing what they describe as broken promises, along with his TV appearance this past Sunday, where he appeared to blame Democrats for wanting a government shutdown.
It's all about Trump.
It's Trump.
It's all about Trump.
All for Trump.
Everything's about Trump.
Just Trump.
Trump, Trump, Trump.
Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump.
That's all that it's about.
Well, I have a clip, but I can skip the clip.
Please.
I don't care.
Let's thank our... I think the whole thing, by the way, was staged.
Of course.
Brought?
Really?
What?
Gambling?
There's acting going on here?
Please.
We kick it off.
Our Executive and Associate Executive Producers, these are the people who, just like Hollywood, receive credits for supporting the best podcast in the universe.
Number one on the list with 2209.
He does it every single month with a number that is code.
We don't understand it.
It's someone does somewhere, no doubt.
Syronymous of Dogpatch and Laura Slobovia.
Always helping us out.
A bridge just got blowed up.
He says.
Thank you to all producers that continue to make this a useful source of information.
Lately, my boots-on-the-ground experience has resulted in very muddy boots, and not from climate issues.
Now, if that's a code... Okay, so that's code for something.
You know what I think it is?
He was at Burning Man.
But that was claimed to be climate change.
So, I mean, I don't know.
He doesn't believe in it.
But my boots on the ground experience has resulted in very muddy boots.
I mean, that's clearly code for someone.
Somewhere.
And I think they get the playa.
I love it.
It's as good as anything else.
I'll take number two while we're at it.
Walker Phillips is in San Rafael, California.
$1,000 and this is a switcheroo donation to ensure that my smokin' hot wife, uh, Cara Paravel, Cara Paravel, celebrates her birthday this Friday, October 6th, as a dame of the Noah Dinner Roundtable!
I would like to humbly request that you reserve her daming ceremony for a future show, as this is a surprise birthday gift, and I would like her... This is nice.
What a sweet husband.
I would like her to choose her own food and drink for the ceremony.
Smart man.
I'll have her send a note with her request.
Please give her... What's that?
Well, we didn't get anything.
No, that's why she's not being damed.
Until she's ready.
It's a happy birthday.
Happy birthday, Cara.
Please give her a biscuit on her birthday and add it to the birthday list.
Thanks for everything.
We love listening to the show together every week.
Cheers, Walker and Cara.
They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
What a beautiful... This is a contradictory note.
He said specifically...
He wanted her to celebrate her birthday on Friday, which is tomorrow, as a dame of the No Agenda Roundtable, but yet she's not on the list because she didn't send in her requests.
I find this to be distressing.
It's like giving her a picture of the earrings before she gets them.
A lot of people do that.
Yeah, well this is the same thing.
Congratulations.
Not even close, because she will be given a birthday shout-out.
Why are you ruining her birthday?
I'm not ruining it, I'm just saying she maybe should be damed.
No!
He specifically says no!
I'm not taking that risk.
That's the way you read it.
Okay, it's your responsibility now.
Okay.
I'll go on with Anonymous in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Actually, I should mention another donation that came in, which I guess will be credited on the next show, which she sent a note in.
I just want to mention this because it turns out That she did a Fibonacci, um... No, that's for next show.
We got specific instructions.
No, but I gotta... To ignore that!
No, no.
Because people need to know in advance of next show.
Oh, okay.
It's a beautiful... It was mind-blowing.
I saw... I have it here.
It's mind-blowing.
We should almost put it in the show notes, it's so mind-blowing.
I'm gonna put it in the next newsletter.
Okay.
It shows that the Fibber, the Fibber, the Fibonacci sequence has created the golden whatever it's called.
It's just unbelievable what's happening on show 1597 in terms of Fibonacci numbers.
in terms of Fibonacci numbers.
1597 is the top of the Fibonacci curve.
Yeah, it creates that crazy-looking circle and the golden or whatever it's called.
Golden ratio, yes, the golden ratio.
The golden ratio, it's all there.
Next show on Sunday, 1597.
It's mind boggling when you see it.
So you have to donate for 1597 because it'll be the luckiest show ever.
It'll be in the newsletter, the picture that she drew of the sequence, the Fibonacci sequence, 1597.
So yes, it has to be discussed.
She'll be listed in the next show as the executive producer.
Meanwhile, we got Anonymous in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
334.
He wants Space Force and some baby-making F-35 guy scream karma.
Dear John and Adam, my wife couldn't stand being married to a peasant, so I'm finishing out my knighthood with this donation.
A peasant?
I'd like to be known as Sir Leo of the Low Earth Orbit.
And can I get a dookie, a dookie, a cookie, cookie dough and grape soda at the round table?
That's disgusting.
Cookie dough and grape soda, yes it is disgusting.
Can I also get a birthday shoutout for the 7th?
I don't know if he's on the birthday list.
Anonymous is on the birthday list, absolutely.
Keep doing what you're doing!
Space Force!
You've got...
Karma.
You asked, we got it.
Jonathan Young, State College, Pennsylvania, 333.33.
I have no note from Jonathan.
Do you have a note from Jonathan?
No, I got zip.
Double up karma for Jonathan.
You've got karma.
You're outgoing as Zachary Nelson in Sneeds Ferry.
Sneeds Ferry, California.
I assume we used to have a ferry.
In the morning, fellas, I found the best podcast in the universe at peak COVID psy-op and told myself if we're all still around when I turn 33, I'll de-douche myself.
I think he wants a de-douching.
Yeah, we got this.
You've been de-douched.
And here we are.
My birthday was yesterday.
10-4, good buddy.
So I thought it appropriate to donate 333.33.
I survived the Marine Corps' COVID shot critical thinker witch hunt, but it still ultimately canned my career.
So naturally, I'm executing phase one of my exit strategy as we speak.
Part of phase one is starting an Etsy shop.
It is phase one, always.
An essay shot with my wife making educational and seasonal crafts for children, reinforcing project-based learning as a homeschooling mother of two, a mother of two human resources with a master's of education in literacy.
My wife assures me this will make sense to other homeschooling mothers.

As you're reading this note, I'll be flying through the U.S.
skies on my way to a friend's wedding in Nags Head, North Carolina, on Saturday.
Coincidentally, the wedding is on my birthday, so please put me on the birthday list for this 48th spin around the sun I'm embarking on.
Did you write this with chat, GPT?
From my seat in the first class cabin, I plan to keep an eye out for French bedbugs and any unattended F-35s speeding past.
I'll post pictures to no agenda social if I spot any.
I promised that I would get back to you with more details on Liberland.
Ah yes, the topic of my previous executive producer note.
I'll be doing so soon, but at present most of my energy is going into my pest control business.
It's a very busy time of year for Z Pest Control LLC, so if you're listening from the Walla Walla Valley, please do not call me for pest control help!
This is an anti-spot.
I love it.
I may be forced to write off this donation off my taxes and advertising expenses if anyone does and says something like, ITM!
Where will the federal grant money come for the study of the intersectionality of transgendered amoebas in intermittent puddles in Africa?
Think of the children.
Faithfully suppressing your exit strategy 1% at a time, Sir 1% Baron of Liberland.
I love bugs!
Bugs, bugs, bugs!
What in the world is this?
You've got karma.
Sir Scobie's up.
He's in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Thank you both for the value, especially the insight on Russia slash Ukraine, trans Maoism, COVID, and Africa.
This donation brings me to Duke.
He's the guy.
He's the only guy that cares about these topics.
Africa.
Yeah, you're it.
You're the guy.
Scobie, you're the guy.
Especially Africa.
Yeah, I know.
For the round table, please order up the drink of choice for every troll in the troll room.

There you go.
Bottom up, trolls.
Love is lit.
Sir Scovia the Piedmont.
SirMaggot, Odessa, Florida, 333.
SirMaggot here.
I saw $10.33 a gallon signs in Florida this weekend.
I knew it was time to donate.
That's right.
You see that number?
I was hit in the mouth by Julian of Boston two years ago.
I've not missed a show since.

Alright, let me give you a little Rev Al.
Give you a little respect, brother.
R-E-S-P-I-C-T.
So we got a note from the anonymous lesbian.
Yes.
She says she's not overboard.
She was scolding me for admitting that she might be.
She was very mad.
She copied me on it to make sure I knew.
She was irked.
And she says she's broke because, you know, she's a classical musician.
And I'm guessing you're bringing Venezuelan classical musicians up so they can even lower the salaries even more.
It's gotta be what's going on.
She does have a new album dropping, and I said, Cinematown?
I want to hear it.
I told her to pick it up.
I'm excited.
I told her, hey, I can get you Value for Value.
We can make you some real money with that thing.
Kevin McLaughlin's up next, of course.
He is the Archduke of Loon, the lover of America, and moved to North Carolina.
It's 333.
Yeah, not his regular spot.
So he's up there to get some other.
He says, please squeeze in the melon mix to the end of the show mix, and I think there's a melon mix coming up at the end of the show.
Yep, got it in there, brother, of course.

She's in Lakewood, Colorado.
I've heard.
Yeah, and she wants some jobs.
Carmen, for a resume that gets results, she says go to ImageMakersInc.com for all your executive resume and job search needs.
I like the fact that she's got a promotion here, but it's short.
That's ImageMakersInc.com or just find Linda Lou Patkin under the show's producers list.
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs!
And then we have a wonderful photo that was sent to us from the Connecticut Meetup in Higga Higga Higginam.
The town, Adam, whose name you can't pronounce.
We forgive you.
It's not Higga Higga Higginam?
And so there's a picture.
Did you see this picture?
This is... Yes I did.
This is, this is, I wish they would put, they should put this online.
Because this is a picture of, no agenda meeting, I'm gonna count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, like 15 people.
We've got a black guy, we got a cowboy, we got a nerd, we got an old guy, we got a smoking hot blonde, we got, we got a, like, spook in the background with a hat and the, we see you spook.
I mean, this is the perfect No Agenda meetup crowd.
I love it.
Great meetup at the truck bar.
There could not have been a better way to spend a rainy Saturday afternoon than hanging out with No Agenda fans.
It's $200, by the way.
The drinks, food, and conversation were all great.
What a bunch of cool and down-to-earth people.
Attach the picture.
Most of us who came to the meetup, please accept Accept the enclosed check with a donation amount of $200.
The money is from all of us who attended the Connecticut meetup.

And says, have a great day, Adam and John.
Thank you for all that you do.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
We love these meetups.
Not just when you send value to the show, but we know that you have connection amongst each other.
And that always brings you special protection.
We'll be doing more of our meetups in a moment, as we do have a couple of items on the list, including a nighting or two.
We also have some birthdays, and until then, John's going to take us through... I think there's a make good on there, isn't there?
That's a... let me see.
Yeah, there is.
I believe it's a night note, actually, but I'll read it right now.
Oh, no, this is a missed birthday donation.
Thank you for reminding me.
This is from Daniel McGee in Mount Juliet, Tennessee.
I'm writing to you because I don't recall getting credit for a $59 donation made right after Adam's 59th birthday.
I believe this may have been because I didn't include my info in the note or there were some issues with donations for that show.
I'd like a make right, we call it a make do, if you'd be so kind, and a de-douching thank you from Daniel McGee in Mount Juliet, Tennessee.
Thank you very much, Daniel, I appreciate it.
You've been de-douched.
Let's look at the rest of our people here and starting with Sir Knight of the Eastside in Maplewood, Minnesota came in with a $198.90 and I want to mention this because I'm gonna put this out there because of the Taylor Swift mentioned earlier.
He says this is a Taylor Swift donation because 1989 was the year she was born.
Wow, thanks for that info.
So now, anyone who wants to get, you know, do that, I want to see if there's anyone besides Sir Knight.
Sir Hugger of Kittens and Zandam!
Uh, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5?
Oh, he needs an F Cancer.

That was a weird way of saying it.
David Jarman in North Torremora, New South Wales, Australia.

Hilarious!
They look pretty.

And I would like to make a special announcement.
I see on the list someone scheduled a meetup for April 8th in Fredericksburg, Texas for the Solar Eclipse meetup.
Do not do this.
Stay away from Fredericksburg for the eclipse.
This is not a good idea.
They expect 100,000 people to come here.
We have to get roadblocks, security guards, we have to oil up our guns.
This is going to be... We cannot have 100,000 people.
Everybody thinks it's gonna be so cute to hang out in Fredericksburg.
You're gonna be camping out.
It'll be worse than the playa at Burning Man.
I will not attend your meetup.
What's the population of Fredericksburg?
15,000.
Yeah, you can't handle 100,000.
On the weekend, we grow to about 50,000 because we have a few motels.
We have mainly bed and breakfast.
That's full.
That's it.
You know, people think that they're going to camp with their campers everywhere.
I mean, we've got task force.
We've got military.
We've got all kinds.
Do not come.
I love you.
Do not come.
I am going to have Joe Rogan over probably.
He's like, hey man, I hear you're pretty broke.
I want to see the eclipse.
Okay, that's cool.
But no, do not come.
Please attend all the other NOAA agenda meetups.
These are great products.
Every single one of them is fantastic.
They're put together with love.
It's all meant to get together with people so you already have a connection with the show.
Now you can have connection with your brothers and sisters who are right nearby you.
It's important.
We saw what Baron Scott did during the snowpocalypse.
We were really, we were better than the ham radio networks, which in fact sucked.
We were a true survival network.
All kinds of things could happen.
You want your connection.
It brings you protection.
NoagendaMeetups.com.
If you can't find one near you, start one yourself!
Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days.
You wanna be where you won't be, triggered or held to blame.
You want to be where everybody feels the same.
It's like a party.
I only have two ISOs.
How many do you have?
I got three.
You play your two.
You always make me go first.
I want you to go first.
Not always.
Always.
I have to beg.
No, no, no.
Let me go first.
Okay, here we go.
Here's my first... Here's my... Yes.
100%.
No, that's no good.
Why do you keep bringing that one in?
No, it's a new one.
That's a new one.
This is the one.
This is the only one I have that is worthwhile.
This is why you have a wondrous show.
I'm sorry, what did she say?
I know, I know.
People don't understand that you can't hear.
When you can't hear it, it's no good.
This is why you have a wondrous show.
This is why you have a wondrous show.
Ah.
I like the word wondrous.
I thought that was kind of cool.
It's a cute word.
All right, I got three.
Let's see what we got here.
I think all three of mine are better than that thing.
Let's start with unprecedented.
Unprecedented.
Yeah, that's better than mine right there.
Yeah.
Go to too late.
It's too late.
That's kind of ominous.
This must be your kicker.
Hot.
I just felt something hot on my legs.
Yeah.
Where is that from?
I don't remember.
I don't care.
I don't care what videos you were watching.
I like it.
That's a good one.
Look, if you like that kind of thing from videos, I got one here that's a little offbeat.
This is from The Family Guy.
Okay.
Now, you know, they do like to insult the Republicans, and it's just kind of a left-leaning show.
But I think this might have been going too far.
I don't know how you handle all these kids every week.
Oh, I don't mind.
I like children.
I always wanted one of my own.
Someone I could raise a little bit better than my parents did me.
You'd be a great dad, Bruce.
You should totally have a kid.
I don't know if you knew this, but it's anatomically impossible for a man to get pregnant.
Even Lindsey Graham?
Well, he's certainly giving it the old college try.
Wow!
That's great.
Lindy Hop, Lady G. Yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's good.
That is good.
He's giving it the old college try.
I have, this is one report that I feel is important because it kind of, it kind of blows the whole, the whole idea of Ukraine.
If, as if the Olenski lady buying $1.1 million worth of jewelry at Cartier, was it Cartier?
Tiffany.
No, it was Cartier.
As if that wasn't enough.
I totally believe that.
Um, I actually have a boots on the ground report, but first I want to... So, because of our, you know, continuing resolution, you know, no deal, no money for Ukraine... Oh!
Oh, they're running out of bullets!
They're running out of bullets.
I think that they were now sending Ukrainian bullets to them.
Iranian, I'm sorry.
I guess we intercepted a million Iranian bullets.
Apparently they just fit into our guns that we've given them.
I don't know what happened.
Unbelievable!
It's crazy.
But this happened.
They normally meet in Brussels or Luxembourg.
All 27 traveling to Kyiv required a lot of planning and security.
Road trip!
Come on, everybody, road trip!
No, we're not.
I've got a surprise.
We're not having dinner at Chez LePierre tonight.
No, we're going on a road trip.
Blindfolds, everybody.
You'll love it.
But as Ukraine faces its second winter at war, this was about sending a powerful message of solidarity.
Apart from the symbolism, there was the promise of more military funding and discussions about Ukraine's longed-for EU membership.
Our victory depends directly on our cooperation with you.
The more there will be strong and solid steps, the faster this war will be over.
It will be over on just terms with the restoration of our territorial integrity and reliable guarantees for peace in all of Europe.
EU ministers promised another $500 million worth of military funding, with another $5 billion to follow in the next year.
There will be continued military training, which will include F-16 pilots.
There is concern that some of Ukraine's allies are suffering war fatigue, with continued support for Kyiv now an election issue in some EU states and the US.
EU ministers insisted their support remains steadfast.
We are not intimidated by your drones or missiles.
Our resolve to support the fight for freedom and independence of Ukraine is firm and will continue.
Yes, we will continue standing.
There was also strong support for President Zelensky's peace plan.
It demands the full restoration of Ukrainian territory and a complete Russian withdrawal.
Josep Borrell said it was the only game in town.
Monday's discussions also included Ukraine's ambition to join the EU.
Brussels has said yes in principle and there are hopes that formal accession talks could begin early next year with a two-year deadline.
The EU says membership will be one of the best ways to guarantee Ukraine's long-term security.
So just so everyone understands when I say foreign ministers, that's State Department.
That's all State Departments of other countries.
And boy, they went to that dangerous Ukraine.
They all went together.
They didn't, I guess those douchebags didn't take a plane, I mean a train, you know they flew in.
Sure.
Of course they did, because it's so dangerous, oh yes, oh.
They had a big banquet and everything, totally sitting ducks.
They lived it up on our money.
Exactly.
On our money.
Speaking of our money, we have two boots on the ground that I'd like to share.
The first one is from a, we have such great producers.
The boots-on-the-ground reports are really something that no other show has.
Adam and John, first I was in a congressional office two weeks ago.
Yes, I am a lobbyist.
Representing an extremely important industry for rebuilding Ukraine after its rubalization.
So not only do we have lobbyists, they speak our language.
And they agree with it.
I met with a high-ranking member of a congressional office who worked for a congressman who sits on the House Armed Services Committee.
How cool is this?
The staff member told us that the Ukrainians will win this war.
He was unmovable on that point and even mentioned his recent trip to Ukraine to tour the country.
But the real interesting point was that this high-ranking staff member pitched us to get involved in the rebuild.
He said $400 billion of worldwide investment will be going into Ukraine after Ukraine wins, with $100 billion backed by the U.S.
taxpayer.
This new 100 billion is in addition to the billions of U.S.
taxpayer dollars of support that we've already been spent or laundered in Ukraine.
This support will not be low-interest loans or supplemented loans meant to be paid back by Ukrainian entities.
This will be a direct equity investment into Ukrainian businesses so they can rebuild.
I wonder if that foreign investment in Ukraine will have any influence.
Hmm.
So 100 million on deck for that's probably 100 million from us and then 300 million from Russia that they that they stole.
The second boots on the ground.
Sorry.
No, I was going to say is an interstitial here.
I want since it's about investing in Ukraine.
I have a clip and I want you to explain to me what the hell is going on here.
This is Ukraine and its arms industry.
Congress appears likely to let a Sunday deadline pass for reauthorizing America's multi-billion dollar global effort to fight AIDS.
As NPR's Gabriel Spitzer reports, that program will still continue, but it will have less certainty about its future.
The PEPFAR program got its start under President George W. Bush and has been reauthorized three times with wide bipartisan support.
But this time around, PEPFAR has gotten entangled in abortion politics.
What clip are you playing?
This is Ukraine arms industry.
Weird NPR.
This is literally what Ukraine AMS, it says, industry.
Okay, well keep playing it.
I don't remember anything about the AIDS crisis, but okay.
I might have misclipped.
I was interested.
I thought it was a really interesting clip.
So do you want me to stop this since it's about?
No, no!
PEPFAR has gotten entangled in abortion politics.
Some Republican lawmakers accused the Biden administration of using PEPFAR as a vehicle to promote abortion access.
On Thursday, the House voted to reimpose a ban on funding organizations that support abortion services, even if they do so with other money.
The Senate is expected to reject that bill.
If Congress does not pass a five-year authorization by October 1st, PEPFAR would still operate under annual appropriations.
This is another minute of this.
Well, I have it down here as a one-minute, 50-second clip.
Yeah, we just played a minute of it.
Okay, we'll keep playing this, probably gets to the point.
Ukraine has hosted more than 200 weapons manufacturers and defense ministers from several countries to help ramp up arms production inside the country.
NPR's Joanna Kokicis reports from Kiev that Ukraine wants to reduce its dependence on foreign military aid.
The government kept details of the International Defense Forum, which was held on Friday, a secret until today, Saturday.
Speaking at the forum, President Volodymyr Zelensky likened Russia's war on Ukraine to a defense marathon, and he said Ukraine must keep recapturing occupied land.
It's very important that Ukraine not retreat, he said.
We need a result every day.
And it's obvious we cannot do that without producing our own weapons and our own defense technologies.
Speaking by video link to the forum, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg added that Ukraine needs to quickly produce high-quality weapons to keep protecting itself from Russian attacks.
They're starting up a weapons industry in Ukraine with our money?
Yeah, you know, it's mainly drones.
I have the boots on the ground.
Good.
It's mainly drones.
This is what everyone believes.
What was the line again?
Many believe, and there's some evidence, No, I got it right here.
Yeah, many believe and it is likely true.
Many believe and it is likely true that Ukraine has a budding drone warfare, warfare drone industry.
They're small drones.
Some of them are coming from Australia.
Australia has the flat pack drones.
You've seen these?
Those are the balsa wood ones?
Yeah, well they're made of cardboard actually.
And so it's a flat pack, like an Ikea flat pack.
And you fold it out and then boom, your drone is good to go.
You can put a couple of keys of explosives in there.
Which I'm sure these will show up everywhere.
This is going to be a lot of fun, these cardboard drones.
Boots on the ground!
We have someone on the ground in Ukraine.
I receive, boots on the ground I have here, about 10,000 small drones a month are lost.
This is in Ukraine.
Increasingly, so, you know, these are seen as very successful.
In fact, they're talking about deploying drones when we go to war with China.
Because they work so well.
Because the drones, you can't knock them out with anti-aircraft, they're complicated.
That's what you'd think, but our boots on the ground says something else.
About 10,000 small drones a month are lost here, increasingly from electronic defenses, then why the theater attack was made.
That's the theater where all the drone guys were.
Russians have learned to target drone pilot locations as more effective than trying to knock down small drones.
So, these guys are like, yeah, I'm flying my drone.
Oh, crap, they just shot me.
Oops.
Small drones are predominantly a daylight anti-personnel weapon and important to identify supply lines or other targets for artillery.
Payload does kill individuals and can damage some small armored vehicles, but most can be repaired quickly.
We only see videos of the successes of the 10,000 launched each month.
The newly trained Ukrainian forces entering the offensive were trained in 90 days, much like Vietnam draftees.
This is not going to end well for Ukraine.
A lot of people are going to die.
Still.
A lot of people have died already.
Four or five hundred thousand, they say.
One, that's a high estimate.
Just one other thing, I don't have a clip, but you've probably seen stories that vaccinated people and women around vaccinated people Are indeed still suffering from unexpected menstruation, post-menopausal menstruation.
We discussed this during the COVID pandemic, when the vaccines came out.
And in fact, got a lot of pushback because we had a study and people said, that's not true.
You can't read the study.
Oh, I'm sorry.
He's right.
And we had boots on the ground from everywhere.
Who was that one guy?
No, it was a lot of guys.
We had, we had incredible amounts of, um, of, uh, boots on the ground.
Just people, you know, having irregular menstruation and, and now, um, this is daily mail, but okay.
COVID vaccines do cause unexpected vaginal bleeding in women, even if they haven't had their period in years, study finds.
So Dame Jamie sends me a note.
She says, saw an article that admits, no that's too strong, shows a correlation of COVID vaccinations causing inflammation and changes in hormone levels.
She said that specifically hormone levels because that when you start to menstruate, it's a hormonal process.
And if you're doing this when you are actually post-menopausal, it's your hormones.
And she says, how interesting that we saw such a surge in teen girls, 13 to 15 years old, during this vaccination phase, who all want to become boys.
And she's saying, is it possible that their hormones were knocked out of whack?
One suggestion, boom, you're a dude.
That's funny.
I thought it was an interesting theory.
Because it did surge.
Yeah, it did, and I have a clip that discusses one aspect of all this.
Not related to the vaccine, but related to the puberty blockers.
Okay, hold on.
This is kind of an interesting clip.
Children who take puberty blockers risk poor mental health, according to a UK study.
Out of the 44 children studied, from ages 12 to 15, 34% of those who took puberty blockers self-reported declining mental health.
The puberty blocker examined in the study is called tryptorellin.
It's used to control the hormones in people's bodies, and some common side effects include depression, nausea, and hot flashes.
The result of the study may add to the epidemic of deteriorating mental health globally.
Nearly 15% of young people have a mental health disorder, according to a survey last year.
Another study last year found that in the U.S., almost 22% of children have at least one mental health condition.
Wow.
Our poor kids.
Our poor kids.
Now, I didn't bring any of these clips, but people are being switched to different SSRIs and they're getting what they call brain zaps.
Yeah.
Have you heard of this brain zap thing?
Yeah, I heard about it.
Where'd you hear about it?
I heard people are switching from different SSRIs and getting all kinds of issues.
Why are they switching?
You know, they have to switch probably because the SSRIs are not working.
Not as effective.
Well, they all function slightly different, so I suppose you can just go from one to another.
Yeah, the only problem is no one knows exactly how they function.
Dad, yeah, well, it's believed to.
They always say, it's believed to do this.
It's believed, you see it on the TV ads, they say it.
It's believed to stop this.
It's believed.
Stories being spiked to impress us about AI and make us scared and want our our leaders to create legislation so that only the smartest people in the world from Silicon Valley will control it so that you know this kind of thing doesn't happen.
This morning a wake-up call for parents as more teens begin to explore artificial intelligence.
Experts say what happened to a group of girls in Spain recently could happen anywhere.
Spanish authorities say more than 30 girls ages 12 to 14 started receiving fake nude images of themselves.
The images were created using an app powered by artificial intelligence that undresses people.
Police say a group of teen boys had used photos from the girls' social media profiles, uploaded them to the app, and shared them on social media.
So essentially, these apps virtually strip individuals, and that enables folks to distribute images of them in attempts maybe to sexually shame them, to humiliate them, or just because they think it's funny.
Sophie Maddox, an expert on cyber sexual violence, says these apps are becoming more accessible.
This issue is happening for everyday people, not just celebrities and folks in the public eye.
And while these nude images are fabricated, experts like Kerry Goldberg, who's not involved in the Spain case, but who has represented victims of digital sexual abuse, says the impact on victims is long-lasting.
They're very compelling and convincing photos so that it really does look like it's a picture of the victim dude.
It really has the same devastating consequences as if it was an actual photograph that depicted you.
The harm isn't any different.
Children in particular don't have the coping mechanism to realize that this could be a solvable problem.
Experts say it's important to create a safe space for your child to come forward.
It's really important There you go.
Couple of things.
First of all, it's illegal, I think, as a felony to post nude pictures of somebody else.
these deep fake nude apps should even exist experts agree they're creating much more harm than good fueling more calls for government regulation of this expanding technology there you go a couple of things first of all it's illegal i think it's a felony to post nude pictures of somebody else those laws were passed some time ago these pictures are equivalent even if They're equivalent pictures.
They're nude pictures of somebody else.
And that wasn't brought up in the report at all.
And in fact, it was even discussed when it comes to child porn.
If you post a picture of someone that looks like they're underage, that's a felony.
Child porn felony.
Right.
If you draw... I've talked to lawyers about this.
Not because I want to post pictures, but because I want to know.
I want to know based on... I'll tell you why.
I want to know my rights.
No, I'll tell you why.
It's because some years ago there was a Chateau Mouton Rothschild put out a wine with a line drawing of some kid who was naked.
It was like some art shot by Chagall or some artist that was famous.
And the wine label was banned from the United States.
For being child porn.
And it became somewhat collectible if you get a bottle of Mouton with that label on it.
I bet.
So I asked around and found out that if you draw a stick figure, according to the lawyer, if you draw a stick figure, stick figure, and have an arrow pointing to it and it's saying nine-year-old girl, that's actually a violation of the child pornography laws.
Not if you put it in a school library.
It's good there.
Good to go.
Be that as it may, there's laws to cover this.
This story is a phony story.
Well of course it's a phony story to hype AI.
Keep the stock market going.
Yes, AI phony story.
AI phony story.
I have just one last thing.
Um, because I got a lot of emails about it.
A lot of pushback.
From that same guy?
No, master electricians.
People who know.
That's a phony story.
Your source is questionable.
And it was about this.
On that day of fire at 6:30 a.m., what I will refer to as the morning fire, appears to have been caused by Hawaiian electric power lines that fell in high winds.
The Maui County Fire Department promptly responded to this fire.
They reported that by 9 a.m., it was contained.
After monitoring it for several hours, the fire department determined the fire had been extinguished.
They left the scene in the early afternoon.
At about 3 p.m., a time when all of Hawaii Electric's power lines in West Maui had been de-energized for more than six hours, a second fire, the afternoon fire, began in the same area.
The cause of that afternoon fire that spread to Lahaina has not been determined.
We are working tirelessly to figure out what happened and we are cooperating fully with federal and state investigators who have indicated it may take 12 to 18 months to conclude.
Now according to our producer, who is in the grid security business, I know him personally.
He's helped us learn about ERCOT here in Texas, how everything works, you know, it's all one big stock market basically.
We know all about this.
He has seen the logs.
Because it's an insurance issue at this point.
And he said that what had happened is the lines that were down had been re-energized and they were from generators that were on the grid and they were cranking up.
And of course, a lot of people who are thinking, oh, like, you know, my Generac here at home.
Yes, there's something called an ATS.
It's a switch that ensures That you don't, you know, throw your generator power not just to your building, but to the entire grid.
So people are pushing back.
So I said, hey, boots on the ground, I need a response.
And he says, yes, I tend to agree.
It's somewhat hard to believe.
The fact is, The transmission lines were disconnected.
There were no generators other than standby generators capable of energizing the lines to the point that they were talking about multiple megawatts of generation online.
Household handyman generators do not account for this.
These were these huge mobile diesel generators that you see and they brought them in likely for hotels.
But that, of course, is why they have to look around for 12 to 18 months.
They put those onto the grid without switches, and that is what literally caused those fires to reignite because the lines were down, they got energized, megawatts worth.
And that's what caused this fire.
I like directed energy weapons better myself, but it's better to know the truth.
Are you getting pushback from some of the producers out there because they still are subscribing to the Directed Energy Weapon bullcrap?
They didn't say that specifically, but they were electricians.
Blue and red roofs?
It's the blue roofs, man!
What you're saying can't be true!
No, they were not saying that.
But they were saying, hey, you know, that's not how they work.
Anyone who installs a generator has got an ATS.
I know that.
This is a very different situation.
No, the update is good.
Good information.
You want to call it?
I can call it.
Are we done?
I, I've, everything I've got can be moved to Sunday quite nicely.
Good.
Then I will let everybody know that we have some end of show mixes.
We got Dee's Laughs with Matty J. We got, well, by request, the sound guy Steve Mellon's mix.
For our Archduke of Luna, and we have a dynamite bedbugs end of show mixed with Jesse Coy Nelson, who never disappoints.
Coming up next on the No Agenda Stream, 24 hours a day, TrollRoom.io, NoAgendaStream.com, and on all the modern podcast apps, Random Thoughts.
And that'll be episode 247, titled, Russell Brand of Justice, whatever that means.
Sounds exciting.
And coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, here in FEMA Region No.
6, where I did not get killed by the nanoparticles activated by the 5G and high tones.
In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where it's widely believed and it's likely true that I'm John C. Dvorak.
And with that, please remember us to send your value for value support at dvorak.org.na.
Have a great one, everybody.
We'll be back on Sunday.
Until then... Adios, mofos!
Hui, hui!

Look at this, you can see here what looks to be a bed bug crawling along the armrest of one of the high-speed trains in France.
We got bedbugs.
Hey, they could turn them into a snack.
I guess if you had a kind of maybe a like a popsicle stick coated in honey and then you roll the bedbugs on them so you eat like, you know, get to eat a lot at once.
Oh, God, it's so good.
Oh, yum!
