	The world's in trouble!
	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Sunday, May 19, 2024.
	This is your award-winning Give Our Nation Media Assassination Episode 1661.
	This is no agenda.
	Landing hard and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas coal country here in FEMA Region Number 6.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where I'm reclaiming my time, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's Craig Vaughn and Buzzkill in the morning.
	Has someone been reclaiming their time again, or that's just one you just made up off of the top of your head?
	you They reclaim their time all the time.
	You can reclaim your time.
	So you hear the news.
	You hear the news about the hard landing.
	Yeah, they're still out searching for it.
	I guess that fog's rolled in, it's dark now, there's some people missing.
	Yeah, here's the most recent update, because no one has anything, of course.
	But Al Jazeera is our go-to for this one.
	For those of you just joining us, we're covering breaking news out of Iran, and the helicopter carrying Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi, as well as the foreign minister, has gone missing in bad weather conditions in the north of the country.
	President Raisi was reportedly on his way to the city of Tabriz in northern Iran.
	That's near the border.
	And President Raisi was in the region to inaugurate a dam and also to hold talks with their Azerbaijani president.
	We have Rasool Sardar joining us from the Iranian capital, Tehran.
	Rasool, what are you hearing at this hour?
	Well, it's now confirmed that the helicopter that was carrying the president of Iran, the head of the government in this country, the second man in command in the country, and the country's top diplomat, the foreign minister Hussein Amir Abdullahian, and the local governor of the province of East Azerbaijan were all in the same helicopter, and that helicopter has crashed.
	The state media is still using different terms.
	Some of them are saying that it was a hard landing, but some say that it was a crash.
	But in any way, we know that the situation is quite serious here because the helicopter is still missing.
	And the rescue teams have not been able to reach the site of the incidents.
	Yeah, this is one of those rare occasions where I actually know something about the topic.
	Being a licensed rotary pilot since 2006 and fixed wing since 2007.
	A hard landing.
	You know a lot about a lot of topics.
	Yeah, but this is one I'm uniquely qualified.
	There's probably only 150,000 helicopter pilots in the world.
	It's not that many.
	We're a very small group.
	One percenter.
	Elite.
	And we're dying quickly.
	Because most of those guys were non-vets.
	You know, Agent Orange got him.
	So, a hard landing in an aircraft, that's a term we use in fixed-wing aircraft, and I have actually had a hard landing.
	It rattles your teeth, and it can ruin stuff, you know, it can bend things.
	When I had my... Just before you get to your story, can I just throw a little...
	So I'm flying, this is years ago, when you'd fly on British Air into London, and they'd always, they would throw the plane, it's like they tried to make it fall apart.
	It was a hard landing.
	Yes.
	And so I'm flying to Hong Kong, now I sound like a name drop, but I'm flying to Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific.
	And I, because of my connections with the public relations arm of the company, I'm in the cockpit.
	Oh wow, this is before the doors were bolted.
	Good times.
	So I'm back there and I mentioned this to the pilots there, and the guy says, oh yeah, he says they got some theory that if they try to make the wings fall off to make sure that the thing's in one piece so they land as hard as they can, it's some thing they've been doing.
	That's... I don't know about that.
	That's what he said.
	Well, now I'm going to have to top you with my heart.
	I have two hard landing stories.
	One in my Cessna 182 retractable.
	And that was the one where my teeth got rattled.
	Basically, I stalled it.
	You know, the wing stall, that is.
	About, I'd say, five feet above the runway.
	And, you know, you basically fall down like a brick.
	And it was an expensive lesson because my altimeter broke and so you can't fly with that so that had to be replaced and it's very expensive.
	The other hard landing story is Ray Lane.
	Have I ever told you this story?
	Have I ever told this story?
	Oh no, here we go.
	This would be the topper.
	This is a topper.
	So Ray Lane used to be, he was number, he wasn't the chief operating officer of Oracle.
	For many years?
	I don't know what he used to do.
	And he was like the one Republican partner at Kleiner Perkins.
	And so, Kleiner Perkins is a big venture capital company.
	These Kleiner Perkins guys, they all had their jets.
	Everybody had a jet.
	Everyone had to have their own plane.
	And he invited me and Ron Bloom and Marta Bloom, since he was kind of our contact at Kleiner Perkins for the venture capital in Pod Show, which no one ever got any money out of, so this will be the last time.
	I don't think Ray Lane will call me anytime soon.
	And they had also invested in Tesla.
	And they were going to the presentation of the Tesla Roadster, which was being held at Long Beach.
	I think it was Long Beach Airport.
	And it was in a hangar, and that's a whole other story, but, you know, what a scam.
	You know, they had a little track indoors, and everybody could ride around.
	You couldn't drive yourself, someone else had to drive, and they'd show you how fast it would go.
	And they had a big board up, a big digital sign of who had pre-purchased one.
	You know, it was kind of like a shaming exercise, like, hey, Ray, man, you haven't, I don't see your name up there, $120,000 for this Tesla.
	There were just wall-to-wall jets there, all the PayPal mafias.
	Anyway, he says, hey, you guys come fly with me.
	He had a brand new Global 5000 or 6000.
	You know, it's like a 12-passenger plane.
	So we're on the plane, and of course, I'm at this point, I have my pilot's license, so I'm sitting up in the jump seat, brand new this thing.
	And so he and Marta and Ron are in the back and they're drinking scotch and he's like, oh, this is the best plane ever.
	And you don't even need to fasten your seatbelt when you land.
	And so I'm sitting in the front, these guys come in for a landing.
	Something...
	I guess the nose wheel locks upon takeoff, the brake locks, and it's something you have to release manual before landing, which they didn't do.
	So we land, and the plane is like, and Ray Lane goes flying right into Bloom, both Blooms, with his Scots, the whole, the whole place is a mess.
	And that was because of his, somehow that fell apart at the end.
	But that was the hard landing story.
	Did I lose you?
	Well, we lost the audience.
	Yeah, did you keel over?
	So anyway, sorry, sorry about that.
	Helicopters, there's no such thing as a hard landing.
	It's a crash.
	That's the bottom line.
	As far as I know, the Iranian president uses an MI-17, that's a Soviet era helicopter, I should say.
	Um, hard landing.
	If you land hard in a helicopter, then you're rolling over and the rotors and it's always nasty.
	So when they say a hard landing in a helicopter, that's not good.
	That's a crash.
	That's not just, oh, we bounced around a little bit.
	And if it is indeed an MI-17, then they have wheels, you know, three wheels, so that would have been a bounce and they probably toppled over, and I would say it's not good.
	How that plays out on the world stage, I have no idea.
	Well, let's back up and discuss, we already know that, or we surmise that the Israelis killed someone that was vying for the top.
	In the embassy in Syria, Damascus.
	Yes, the so-called embassy, yes.
	The spy house.
	Yeah, the spy house.
	The spook house, yeah.
	This guy, according to BBC, excuse me, was vying for the Supreme Ruler's position.
	Oh, time to eliminate him.
	Just interesting coincidence.
	Hard landing indeed.
	Sounds more like an RPG then.
	So the, uh... Because, you know, if it's misty, you should not be flying a helicopter.
	That's just end of story.
	Unless you're above it.
	But you can't fly a helicopter reliably, safely.
	Well, I mean, yeah, some of them are outfitted with, uh...
	I think it was an attempt.
	It was probably successful.
	The hard landing thing is nonsense.
	The helicopter pilots never talk.
	Did you have a hard landing?
	No, I crashed.
	There's no such thing as a hard landing in a helicopter.
	That's you crashed.
	We'll see.
	Almost as exciting.
	In the news business, Twitter finally changed its URL to x.com!
	Oh, I wonder what he had to pay for that.
	Well, no, he had X.com.
	It's just you have to, you know, all the redirects and all that stuff that has to happen.
	No, he had it.
	That was his big thing when he left PayPal.
	That was part of his severance package.
	Oh, so he got X'd then?
	He wanted PayPal to be X.com then.
	This has been his lifelong dream.
	He's got some hang-up with the letter X'd.
	Well, yes, and he wants to be everybody's bank.
	That's the only reason why you have this free speech on Twitter.
	Freedom of speech, but not of reach.
	It's like, keep everybody engaged, so I roll out my bank.
	What does he have, 38 money transmitter licenses now?
	38 states?
	He's getting there.
	Pretty soon, it'll just be, oh, I'm now your bank.
	And he'll have favorable terms.
	People will want to save on X.
	But X.com does work.
	I'm just checking it.
	Yeah, but it actually, but it used to change into Twitter.com.
	Nope, nope, just X.com now.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And if you type in Twitter.com, it comes up X.com.
	It goes back to X, yeah.
	So, no good for him.
	Yeah, I'm so happy.
	It was just, that was one of the things.
	Who cares?
	Well, you were the one that kept saying it pops up Twitter.com.
	You had a problem with it.
	You cared.
	I had no problem with anything.
	Okay.
	I am not a person that has problems.
	You are the most low-problem guy I know.
	I want to play the new Trump shtick.
	He has a new shtick about Biden, and I think he has him on a check.
	Not checkmate, but he has him on a check.
	As President Biden came out and challenged Trump to a debate, not one but two debates, where microphones are cut and there's no audience and Jake Tapper moderates it or Dana Bash.
	How did those guys get that gig?
	They're no good at that.
	They were hand-picked by the Biden campaign.
	So Trump has a paré.
	He has a paré.
	And I think this is a very good one, and I think if I was President Biden, I would be nervous.
	When the word is that I'm two points up, I don't know if that's good or bad.
	How are you two points up to Biden?
	He can't talk, he can't walk, can't find his way off the stage, can't put two sentences together.
	Although he has agreed to debates, so I don't know, maybe they know something.
	He's going to be so jacked up for those debates, you watch.
	Dude, has he been listening to our show with his jacked up?
	I mean, come on.
	We've been saying the word jacked up for a long time.
	Suspicious.
	Yeah, maybe one of his writers.
	He's gonna be so jacked up for those debates, you watch.
	I just want to debate this guy, but, you know... And I'm gonna demand a drug test too, by the way.
	I am.
	No, I really am.
	I don't want him coming in like the State of the Union.
	He was high as a kite.
	I said, is that Joe up there?
	Beautiful room.
	And by the end of the evening, he's like, well... He was exhausted, right?
	Now, we're gonna demand a drug test, but Fake Tapper and these people, they're gonna be fine.
	They're gonna be fair.
	I think they're gonna be fair.
	And if they're not, you know, you have to deal with it, right?
	You have to deal with it.
	He's all about disinformation.
	Pilots come in, he said, I used to fly a plane.
	Truckers come in, I used to drive a truck.
	People come in from Minnesota, I used to live in Minnesota.
	Right?
	He is so f***ed, this guy.
	Terrible.
	I think that's a great challenge.
	No, I'm demanding a drug test.
	Because if Biden says no, then, oh, you're jacked up.
	He'll just sit there the whole time.
	Everyone will be thinking Joe's jacked up.
	He will be jacked up.
	He has to be.
	He has to be.
	There's this pretty cool video, which does not work in audio only, of Biden a year ago and Biden today.
	You know, it's basically jacked up Joe versus regular Joe.
	Yeah.
	Side by side.
	Oh man, it's two different dudes.
	Nah, there may be three of them.
	Well, there's two different dudes, and then there's the guy with the mask.
	Or they all have masks, I don't know.
	Well, that's hard to say.
	And then there's the bug-eyed Joe, and the squinty-eyed Joe, and the staring Joe.
	There's a bunch of these.
	I don't know what the deal is.
	People don't believe it.
	How do they find these people?
	People have a hard time believing it.
	But the mask thing is real.
	I mean, there's real masks that will fool you.
	Will fool anybody.
	That has to be.
	No, there have been.
	In fact, the makeup artist, CIX CIA makeup artist, talked about this.
	The disguise artist.
	And she mentioned that the old Mission Impossible that used to be on TV, what was that, in the late 70s?
	Earlier.
	They were using these masks.
	I mean, they were showing the fact that they had these masks.
	They weren't really using anything.
	They were just, you know, pulling off something.
	She implied that the technology was available back then, during that show, that's why they were kind of discussing it on the show, and it's, I'm guessing, unimaginable how advanced it's gotten since then, where you could really, I could, you know, you can go out look like somebody else very easily.
	So, what are you gonna do?
	Either that or AI?
	I think, I think Trump should reach over and rip the mask off.
	They won't be near each other.
	And it will be even funnier if it's not a mask.
	You know, it'll still be hilarious.
	Yeah, especially if he rips his face off.
	That would be something.
	Speaking of masks... On Medical Watch this afternoon, how masks hold up against COVID.
	And medical reporter Dena Bair is here, and I guess the results are sort of surprising, Dena.
	They are, Ray and Lourdes.
	Face mask efficacy depended on the COVID variation.
	Wearing a face mask did not reduce the risk for infection after...
	What?! !
	This is the season of reveal everybody!
	Wearing a face mask did not reduce the risk for infection after the first Omicron wave.
	University of East Anglia researchers say initially face masks reduced the spread of COVID but after December 2021 there was a shift.
	The Omicron variant was better able to infect the cells lining the upper respiratory tract than previous variants, and so it became more transmissible, even in the presence of nose and mouth shields.
	The study was funded by the National Institute for Healthcare Research.
	So this is an interesting little hedge they put in there.
	It worked on the original COVID.
	Yeah, even though the virus is pretty much identical in size and everything else, but okay.
	People are nuts.
	Then they just want us to believe.
	Believe!
	Please believe all of this crazy stuff.
	You gotta believe it.
	Believe it.
	So, I've been following this Harrison Butker thing.
	Do you follow this?
	Oh, why?
	Yeah, I know of everything there is to know about it.
	I bet you... No, I bet you don't.
	That's what I thought, too.
	What do you think?
	Everything?
	You know everything?
	Tell me everything you know about it.
	I know everything.
	No, just tell me.
	Because I don't want to play these clips.
	I don't want to get into a presentation if you're just going to sit there and go and make sounds and go.
	Yeah, which is what the show is about.
	Well, so Harrison Butker gave a commencement address somewhat unlike the one Biden did this morning for Morehouse College.
	To a Catholic, private Catholic school, and he is a practicing, kind of, I think he might be old-school Catholic that prefers the Latinate mass.
	But it's beside the point.
	And he gives, it's very, just as kind of a standard pro-church talk, and he was thanking his wife for having children and taking the role of housekeeper in such a way that...
	Housekeeper, there you go.
	Yeah, I don't think that's what he said, but I like it.
	What'd he say?
	Homemaker.
	Okay, housekeeper, homemaker.
	So she took the job of homemaker and he thanked her for that because it's, you know, it's a decision she made.
	And he went on and on.
	And then somehow, for some reason, a bunch of people jumped on this.
	I mean, they don't mind it when a professional athlete after a game goes, I like to thank Jesus and the Lord.
	He's made it possible for us to win.
	That's okay.
	And they don't mind it when a professional football player beats the crap out of his girlfriend or gets arrested or brings a gun to a club or anything like that.
	None of that's a big deal.
	But Buckner saying that he is happy that his wife is a homemaker got a bunch of people bent out of shape.
	And now it's become a big cause about the right and the left where they keep bringing these Oh, all he did was say this and that.
	Why are they all so bent out of shape?
	And the left is nuts!
	And that's where it kind of, you know, is where I... That is indeed the distraction.
	You're absolutely right.
	And I also, you know, I'm like, okay, I see the thing about the, about the housekeeper.
	But then something happened, and I saw several well-known leftists all of a sudden saying, well, it's okay for him to say that, and we have to respect his opinion, and that got me interested.
	I was like, well, what?
	I didn't understand.
	It's like, why is that happening all of a sudden?
	Whereas 175,000 people have signed a petition, you know, we should be kicked out of the team.
	I think he's the best kicker in the league, isn't he?
	He's definitely one of the top guys.
	So, the setup clip here is from Whoopi Goldberg on The View.
	Yeah, this was played to excess by the right.
	It is graduation season all over America and Super Bowl winning Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker delivered a commencement address at Benedictine College in Kansas that has sparked quite a petition because they want to get him booted from the team.
	Take a look.
	I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolical lies told to you.
	How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career?
	Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.
	I'm on this stage today and able to be the man I am because I have a wife who leans into her vocation.
	All of my success is made possible because a girl I met in band class back in middle school So the NFL released a statement that he gave this speech in his personal capacity, and they do not, the NFL does not share his views.
	So the NFL released a statement that he gave this speech in his personal capacity.
	And they do not.
	The NFL does not share his views.
	So, you know, listen, I like when people say what they need to say.
	He's at a Catholic college.
	He's a staunch Catholic.
	These are his beliefs, and he's welcome to them.
	I don't have to believe them.
	I don't have to accept them.
	The ladies that were sitting in that audience do not have to accept them.
	The same way we want respect when Colin Kaepernick takes a knee, we want to give respect to people whose ideas are different from ours because the man who says he wants to be president, you know who?
	He says the way to act is to take away people's right to say how they feel.
	We don't want to be that.
	We don't want to be those people.
	So I'm okay with him saying whatever he says, and the women who are sitting there, if they take his advice, good for them, they'll be happy.
	If they don't, good for them, they'll be happy a different way.
	That's my attitude.
	So, you know, luckily The View took it towards Trump pretty quickly.
	By the way, I apologize.
	I absolutely should have played the trigger warning.
	So, and I saw Bill Maher doing this.
	Like, why are they doing this?
	will be played.
	Shelter in place.
	So, and I saw Bill Maher doing this, like, why are they doing this?
	This makes no sense.
	And so I went and watched his entire commencement speech, which I can tell you didn't.
	That's okay, because no one did.
	Because everyone's just all wrapped up in, oh, the controversy, oh, oh, homemaker this, homemaker that.
	I didn't not listen to it because of what you just said, because I think it's because I'm all worked up.
	No, I just thought it was a distraction that I didn't need to listen to his commencement speech.
	I don't care.
	Hello?
	No, what I meant was, you assumed that he, you literally said that, you know, he was talking about the church and all this.
	You assumed that that's what the commencement speech was, but it was very different.
	That's my point.
	I think that this is the reason why this is now this big controversy is to obfuscate what he actually said.
	What he actually said was very damning of the church, very damning of the culture of Catholics and Christians.
	It was quite interesting.
	As a group, you witnessed firsthand how bad leaders who don't stay in their lane can have a negative impact on society.
	It is through this lens that I want to take stock of how we got to where we are and where we want to go as citizens and, yes, as Catholics.
	While COVID might have played a large role throughout your formative years, it is not unique.
	Bad policies and poor leadership have negatively impacted major life issues.
	Things like abortion, IVF, surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as a growing support for degenerate cultural values in media all stem from the pervasiveness of disorder.
	Our own nation is led by a man who publicly and proudly proclaims his Catholic faith, but at the same time is delusional enough to make the sign of the cross during a pro-abortion rally.
	He has been so vocal in his support for the murder of innocent babies that I'm sure to many people, it appears that you can be both Catholic and pro-choice.
	He is not alone.
	From the man behind the COVID lockdowns, to the people pushing dangerous gender ideologies onto the youth of America, they all have a glaring thing in common.
	They are Catholic.
	This is an important reminder that being Catholic alone doesn't cut it.
	These are the sorts of things we are told in polite society to not bring up.
	You know, the difficult and unpleasant things.
	But if we are going to be men and women for this time in history, we need to stop pretending that the Church of Nice is a winning proposition.
	We must always speak and act in charity, but never mistake charity for cowardice.
	I thought this was fascinating.
	Anyone could have pulled the anti-abortion thing.
	There was maybe one or two mentions of something here or there, but the main message was, oh, you call, oh, women, traditional women, you can't have that.
	Why didn't they do that?
	Why didn't they do any of it?
	To distract, to make sure that no one hears what he is trying to do.
	Well, it had the opposite effect with you.
	No, what do you mean?
	Well, you said they were doing it to make sure that people wouldn't get the real message, the hidden message, and you went back and listened to it and played it to everybody else.
	So now it got a huge play out, so their whole scheme was thwarted by your curiosity.
	Well, no, I'm going to thwart the scheme here, yes.
	Yes, but that's because we're no agenda.
	No agenda takes the time to read the legislation.
	No agenda takes the time to get the clips from NTD.
	No agenda delves into stuff.
	Instead of just, oh yeah, it's a big nothing burger.
	I never said that either, by the way.
	I'm not saying you said that!
	That's what everyone else is saying, and everyone's moving on.
	He literally is calling out the Church, and I think this is the fear.
	I didn't hear that, by the way.
	No, of course you didn't.
	He was calling out the Catholics, not the Church.
	The Catholic Church.
	Here, listen.
	No, he was calling out the Catholics.
	Listen!
	We cannot buy into the lie that the things we experienced during COVID were appropriate.
	I'm sorry, is that the right one?
	Over the centuries there have been great wars, great famines, and yes, even great diseases.
	All that came with a level of lethality and danger.
	But in each of those examples, church leaders leaned into their vocations and ensured that their people received the sacraments.
	Great Saints like Saint Damien of Malachi, who knew the dangers of his ministry, stayed for 11 years as a spiritual leader to the leper colonies of Hawaii.
	His heroism is looked at today as something set apart and unique, when ideally, it should not be unique at all.
	For as a father loves his child, so a shepherd should love his spiritual children too.
	That goes even more so for our bishops.
	These men who are present-day apostles.
	Our bishops once had adoring crowds of people kissing their rings and taking in their every word, but now relegate themselves to a position of inconsequential existence.
	Now, when a bishop of a diocese or the bishop's conference as a whole puts out an important document on this matter or that, nobody even takes a moment to read it, let alone follow it.
	No.
	Today, our shepherds are far more concerned with keeping the doors open to the chancery than they are with saying the difficult stuff out loud.
	It seems that the only time you hear from your bishops is when it's time for the annual appeal, whereas we need our bishops to be vocal about the teachings of the Church, setting aside their own personal comfort and embracing their cross.
	Our bishops are not politicians, but shepherds.
	So instead of fitting in the world by going along to get along, they too need to stay in their lane and lead.
	That's calling out the church.
	I was like, wow.
	Sounds like he's calling out the people to me.
	Calling out the bishops, he's not calling out the church per se.
	Okay, alright.
	Then the bishops, alright.
	Yes, but I just generalize that as the church.
	And then I think the final thing here that he said was the message that no, definitely nobody wants getting out.
	To the gentlemen here today, part of what plagues our society is this lie that has been told to you that men are not necessary in the home or in our communities.
	As men, we set the tone of the culture, and when that is absent, disorder, dysfunction, and chaos set in.
	This absence of men in the home is what plays a large role in the violence we see all around the nation.
	Other countries do not have nearly the same absentee father rates as we find here in the U.S.
	and a correlation could be made in their drastically lower violence rates as well.
	Be unapologetic in your masculinity.
	Fighting against the cultural emasculation of men.
	Do hard things.
	Never settle for what is easy.
	You might have a talent that you don't necessarily enjoy, but if it glorifies God, maybe you should lean into that over something that you might think suits you better.
	So if you look at X, video after video of black and brown men playing that, They caught that part and like, no, no, this guy's right now.
	This is this is.
	And so it's I think the Democrat Party, of course, you know, that's Bill Maher gave a million dollars to the Democrat Party when Obama was who knows what he's giving now.
	The ladies of the view definitely all in on the Democrat Party.
	I think they're afraid, afraid of this message.
	Remember, all churches were shut down during COVID and now they, I think they're seeing churches becoming stronger, the people are coming together.
	This school doubled in size and they don't want it.
	And then if you listen to France 24, They're upset about the trad wife!
	Now, have you ever heard of a trad wife?
	It's internet shorthand for a traditional wife and has been adopted by a whole subculture of women.
	They proudly declare on social media how they're stay-at-home mothers and wives, replicating the era of the 1950s housewife.
	And it's buzzing online with a topic reaching over 300 million views on TikTok.
	Cecile Simmons is a research manager for the London-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue and a specialist on gender equality issues in the online world.
	She joins me in the studio today.
	Cecile, thank you so much for your time.
	Why did you start researching the subject of trad wives?
	I've been following the Tradwives ever since they emerged on internet forums about a decade ago.
	But I always thought of that movement as being quite discreet and quite niche.
	And of course, what we have seen since the pandemic is that this movement has become mainstream.
	Because it's promoted by popular influencers with hundreds of thousands of followers.
	But what happened to me is that the TradWise made it onto my social media feed.
	I became a mother and naturally social media algorithms started showing me that content.
	And I became interested in knowing what will happen if you start engaging with it.
	I thought that actually the trad wives were quite compelling and I think that a lot of women say that watching that sort of content including feminist women will say that it's quite appealing and it's quite addictive and of course we know what social media algorithms do.
	Once you click on something they will recommend you more of the same as well as more extreme versions of the same to keep you engaged in browsing and so it can become quite addictive to look at.
	So this lady is so worried about the tradwife content because the algos are pushing it on women and it's becoming addictive and they might all become tradwives and you know what that leads to!
	The move originated in the US, it's now spread to other parts of the English speaking world.
	Is it gaining popularity here in Europe as well?
	It is absolutely gaining popularity across different countries in Europe, including in France, but it is very much started as an English-speaking movement and it is still more popular in the US and in the UK.
	Given the very strong anti-feminist views, are these individuals linked to the far-right or white supremacist movements?
	There it is!
	I think that it's very easy to forget the roots of the movement.
	The movement started as a counterpoint to the manosphere, the misogynistic online communities led by men, and it's a movement that really works in tandem with the manosphere because it's a movement that promotes submission to men as well as for women to give up their financial and social independence.
	It is also a movement that has strong links to the far right.
	Not all trad wives are far right, but some of them are, and some of them will promote or will link Don't look at the tradwife stuff!
	You'll become a Nazi!
	extremist influences.
	And so once you start clicking on some of that content, you will be quickly led to more extreme ideological content.
	Don't look at the trad wife stuff.
	You'll become a Nazi.
	What are these people afraid of?
	Trump.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	You're right.
	Get right to the point.
	Trump.
	That's what Whoopi did, and this is what this lady's doing.
	Trump, Trump, Trump.
	Oh no, we're going backwards.
	We're going to lose black men and we're going to lose women to the kitchen!
	Housekeepers!
	And the church!
	Oh no!
	And right on cue.
	So tonight's Original Now with in-depth reporting on a topic we've been watching and tonight it's an unexpected but powerful group which says they're fighting to protect the separation of church and state.
	The Satanic Temple.
	We told you about them before on this show.
	Remember they're battling a lot of conservative movements by fighting for what they say is their members' religious rights.
	One issue we've seen them gain some traction on is abortion.
	They've sued states over access to it, even launching what they call the first-ever Religious Abortion Clinic Network.
	Now, the Satanic Temple's taking on religion in schools, using new laws in several states to try and get Satanist ministers inside classrooms.
	Here's Maura Barrett.
	Tonight, the Satanic Temple wants to put its own ministers in public schools in both Florida and Oklahoma.
	It's a move in opposition to conservative lawmakers in those states voting to allow religious chaplains to serve in schools, essentially as counselors.
	Chaplains have a very specific role.
	Thirteen other states have proposed similar bills this year.
	The demonic-sounding group using this debate to push back on certain Christian ideals and its increasing overlap on public life.
	If they pass these bills, they're going to have to contend with ministers of Satan acting as chaplains within their school districts.
	Lucian Greaves, who uses a pseudonym to protect against threats, is a co-founder of the Satanic Temple.
	They're going to lose in court.
	The Constitution is unambiguous about this.
	You just cannot take a religious identity and cut it out from a public accommodation.
	They'll have to pay the attorney's fees And frankly, they shouldn't be putting that kind of budget into this kind of culture war grandstanding BS.
	So they roll out Lucian Greaves.
	Have you ever seen that dude?
	He's got like a one blind eye, kind of all milky.
	And he's got fangs.
	It's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Okay, so there you go.
	We're going to have a one-door chaplain with a cross and one door with a pentagon and moloch horns and then you choose which door you want to go through, kids.
	Now, there's something happening here.
	I'm liking it.
	I'm liking this battle.
	This is bigger than just Butker's home housekeeper speech.
	This is bigger than that.
	These people are afraid.
	They're afraid of the people that Trump is attracting.
	Well, Trump's attracting everyone.
	Except the people that are just irrational haters.
	Yeah, I think the irrational haters are in the minority now.
	Yeah, they could be in the minority, but that doesn't mean they can't rig an election.
	Well, they're definitely trying.
	Holy moly.
	This bird flu thing.
	Yeah, holy moly.
	This bird flu thing, they will not stop.
	They're not stopping.
	They just, they just keep on going.
	Like, they want to create some kind of panic.
	And, uh, here's... Yeah, mail-in votes.
	Yes, absolutely!
	Elitist Voices of America.
	This is NPR or PBS.
	Evolutionary biologist Michael Warby at the University of Arizona is one of many scientists around the world trying to untangle bird flu's latest twist.
	How and when it spread to dairy cows.
	The latest twist of bird flu is that it's got a publicist.
	It has a whole PR agency.
	How and when it spread to dairy cows.
	The jump into cattle probably... Notice the terms here.
	The jump to cattle, which is completely unproven.
	They've only done some PCR testing on milk.
	And they don't talk about feeding the cattle chickens and chicken shit.
	Let me see what we have in this report.
	How and when it spread to dairy cows.
	The jump into cattle probably took place between mid-November and mid-January, and so we're months into this already.
	And since then, it's spread like wildfire, infecting dairy cows in at least 46 herds across nine states.
	This is patently not true!
	They've tested milk!
	But now it's spread like wildfire.
	These cows are falling down dead everywhere.
	Oh no, all these herds!
	Is it possible that the spreading like wildfire is really just a function of testing?
	Who was testing for bird flu until just recently?
	And this is just PCR.
	We know that PCR tests are bogus.
	It's bogus.
	This whole thing is bogus.
	It seems to be spreading cow to cow in some fashion.
	Cow to cow.
	Cow-to-cow bullcrap!
	Bull!
	But we don't know exactly how that is.
	For example, it could just be mechanical transmission as one cow leaves a milking machine, leaves virus on it, and then the next cow comes in.
	It goes through the udder.
	Goes through the udder.
	Goes through the udder?
	That doesn't make any sense, but okay.
	It's intra-udder.
	Respiratory, like flu does with humans.
	It's intra-utter.
	Okay, let's get to the surveillance part.
	These are all the terms we learned during COVID.
	We were just hammered with them all.
	We weren't aware enough at the time to call bullcrap on what they were doing now, but this time we're here.
	Now we know what's going on.
	In late April, the USDA mandated that milking dairy cows being transported across state lines need to be tested for bird flu.
	Do you think we have got now enough surveillance out there to know what this virus is doing and where it's moving?
	I think we still have a long way to go, honestly.
	We are still sort of dealing with a pretty limited number of samps from a limited number of farms, and that limits Exactly how much we can understand.
	For example, you can actually figure out, just like we did with COVID, the number of people infected is doubling every two days.
	Oh my lord.
	We still don't know that with cattle.
	Oh yeah, we can, just like COVID, we can figure it all out.
	It's easy.
	You know, it has an infection rate.
	This is the... We know what's going on here.
	It's obvious.
	Please, this is COVID.
	And then they pull in the story they dropped several weeks ago, which we picked up on, and they add that in.
	But even the initial discovery that bird flu had jumped species and was now circulating in cows... Jumped species.
	...was thanks to a bit of epidemiological work by a handful of veterinarians.
	The main common denominators with the cattle were a sudden decrease in feed intake, a sudden decrease in milk production, variable fevers, variable manure consistency.
	Dr. Drew Magstead is a veterinarian at Iowa State's Vet Diagnostic Lab.
	He was helping colleagues in the Texas Panhandle and Kansas who were dealing with a bunch of sick cows, but then a new clue emerged.
	Here it comes!
	On these same farms where cows were sick, a lot of cats had gone missing, gotten sick, or had died.
	So you thought, we have to check H5N1, the bird flu, because it's been in this area, but you really didn't think that was going to be the case.
	Well, yeah, and we didn't end up ruling it out.
	We ended up finding the virus.
	Dead cats.
	This thing is jumping everywhere, John.
	Pangolins next.
	What will we do?
	This is very, very concerning.
	The intriguing part here is that this virus in cattle doesn't seem to be causing any mortality.
	After several weeks, the animals recover.
	It's very different from the infection in other mammalian species.
	In fact, unlike cows, this bird flu has been deadly to the nearly two dozen other mammal species that have been infected in the U.S.
	So now they're saying...
	That it jumped, because it jumped to cats, which was some bogus story they had.
	It's not deadly to cows, but it's deadly to other mammals, mammalian creatures, which could include people.
	From a polar bear, I think.
	Just listening to this, because I haven't heard this one about the cats, I think the idea is that they're not going to get traction with the cows.
	No.
	And by the way, did they test the cows specifically or just the milk?
	Just the milk!
	Well, unless they're testing the cows.
	I'm not buying any of this, but I think the idea is to pass it to, to make it sound, if cats and dogs can get it, then it will get back to the people population because your cat.
	Wasn't, didn't they try to pull this stunt with COVID and a dog could get COVID?
	Remember this vaguely?
	Oh, I bet you.
	Hold on, let me see.
	COVID, dog.
	COVID and dogs.
	It was like, oh, your dog can get COVID and pass it to you.
	I think the idea is to get.
	Here you go.
	They're cute, they're snuggly, and they've given us much-needed company during the pandemic.
	But can your pet get infected and spread COVID-19?
	According to a recent study, a significant number of pet cats and dogs cancel the COVID-19 virus from their owners.
	The author of the study has recommended that COVID patients should isolate themselves even from their pets.
	Yep, yep.
	Okay, so they got the pets and COVID thing, even though it never really blossomed because they didn't need to do that, but they practiced it.
	And so now we're going to have bird flu and cats.
	And of course, cats catch birds and get bird flu from that.
	We're assuming that they don't get bird flu at all.
	Okay, that's an interesting ploy.
	It's a little late to ramp this up as far as I'm concerned, as far as the election's concerned.
	The federal government is putting up $200 million to stop the spread of the virus and help experts get a better handle on just how widespread this is.
	How are they doing it?
	They'll be paying farmers for the testing, and if the cow tests positive, they'll pay them for culling the cow or the herd.
	There you go, that's exactly what they want.
	From a polar bear in Alaska, to a mountain lion in Colorado, to raccoons and foxes, many of those animals were likely infected by eating dead animals that were carrying the virus.
	So, we have to bring in the big guns to understand what's going on here.
	McCullough.
	We cannot refute McCullough.
	You and I have agreed that Peter McCullough, Dr. McCullough, what he says goes with us.
	Am I still correct on that?
	Yeah, pretty much.
	Okay, so then here is his analysis of the situation.
	Bird flu now, we have credible evidence that it's gain-of-function research, again, being done in U.S.
	laboratories this time, the Athens, Georgia, U.S.
	Poultry Research Center, the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
	We can identify even this gain-of-function strain.
	It's perfectly timed ahead of this WHO meeting to try to bring in the U.S.
	And said it's gain-of-function research.
	You know, so this has now become very clear.
	It's perfectly timed ahead of this WHO meeting to try to, you know, bring in the U.S. and everyone else under this global treaty control.
	It's poised right ahead of the elections.
	The state of Michigan just declared a bird flu emergency.
	What they're doing now is they are doing mass PCR testing of animals, creating this artificial crisis, and then mass culling or destruction of poultry.
	They're going to create a food shortage.
	In reality, bird flu can be treated in humans with modern-day treatment and early detection.
	We shouldn't lose a single life with bird flu.
	Probably only the animal handlers are at risk anyway.
	And the bird flu scare, which is disease X, the Global Vaccine Alliance says it is disease X, that this is going to create food insecurity as the driver of fear going into the election cycle.
	Damn.
	Macaulay!
	I mean, that's Macaulay!
	It's probably right on the money what he said.
	I mean, and the Global Vaccine Alliance, that's Gavi, that's Bill Gates' organization, and yes, we know that the WHO has this international pandemic treaty they want everybody to, or international health treaty I should say, everybody to sign on to, which would then have to be, doesn't even have to be ratified.
	Biden's more than willing to do that.
	Yes!
	Yes, and then that gives the WHO authority to do things like tell you to stay at home.
	I mean, that's in theory.
	That's the theory.
	Whether that happens, who knows?
	So they're up to no good.
	We're up to no good.
	Boots on the ground from Renegade 6.
	Testing wash-off wastewater from dairies is not solely testing the feces from the cows, but also from all the pigeons, grackles, sparrows, and all manner of assorted birds that feed and roost in the dairy lots and barns.
	A pH buddy of mine was hired by a municipality to trace fecal Coliform pollution in a low-flow river that ran through downtown.
	They were hoping to identify the feedlot or leaky septic tanks upstream as the source of the pollution, and Levi finds what he found was that the source was avian, not bovine or human, and it was thus the birds roosting under the numerous bridges crossing the river, and then the project was cancelled.
	But you see, that's not going to be cancelled everywhere.
	So this is how, that's the wastewater testing they're doing.
	That's what the EPA just passed regulation for.
	Oh, we're testing your wastewater downstream, rancher.
	I'm getting rid of your cows because you got bird flu.
	Yeah, this is, this is concerning.
	Yeah, well.
	I'm looking at the documents right now about Michigan declaring a bird flu emergency and it's the guy that was the head of the Department of Agriculture there that did this, a guy named, of all things, Tim Boring.
	B-O-R-I-N-G?
	Really?
	Yeah.
	Oh, excellent.
	And what does he say?
	It's all hell's breaking loose because he says he issued an emergency spread of infections in cattle and poultry.
	The order puts into place on May 8th requirements that farming farms designate a biosecurity manager.
	Oh brother.
	Create a secure perimeter to the farm with limited access.
	So there you go.
	Cars also keep a logbook recording all vehicles and people who have gotten out of vehicles and crossed to access points which must be available and received by the MDARD officials at their request.
	Mm-hmm.
	They're like a lockdown.
	Mm-hmm.
	Yes.
	Exactly.
	Bugs are coming.
	Food shortages.
	Do you think that they could actually create such a food shortage that it would become an election issue?
	As McCullough said?
	Well, if it becomes an election issue, it's not going to be pro-Biden.
	How's that going to benefit Biden?
	I don't know.
	It doesn't make sense.
	I don't know.
	Maybe it just benefits the pharmaceutical and food companies.
	That seems to be the obvious beneficiaries.
	And you know, in this season of Reveal, everything is coming out.
	We had the select subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic asking all sorts of people all sorts of questions, and this is just 30 seconds that's relevant.
	Dr. Tabak, did NIH fund gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology through Echo Health?
	It depends on your definition of gain-of-function research.
	If you're speaking about the generic term, yes we did.
	But this is research.
	The generic term is research that goes on in many, many labs around the country.
	It is not regulated.
	And the reason it's not regulated is it poses no threat or harm to anybody.
	Yeah, that's right.
	That's, that's why it was forbidden.
	It was outlawed in America.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Well, you know, they're going for lockdowns.
	You know, we know who did the lockdown.
	So, you know, Trump was the one who locked us down.
	I hope he wouldn't fall for that again.
	And will the American people stand for it is the question.
	Once the, uh, you know, the first place, the lockdown, People always forget this.
	What was the first place in the country that locked down?
	Well, I know that the lockdowns were determined after Austin, Texas cancelled South by Southwest.
	That was the tipping point.
	San Francisco was the first place that locked down the city.
	Mayor London Breed, who will probably get re-elected, landed the homeless.
	Locked down and did all this.
	Meanwhile, of course, the homeless were the only ones that weren't locked down.
	It was very strange.
	No, they were lifted up.
	They were held up as heroes.
	They were essential personnel.
	The homeless.
	And then, of course, once we had the BLM riots, that was okay because that was more important to express your feelings.
	But a lot has happened, John, in the past couple of years that everyone's just kind of forgotten about.
	We'll remind them.
	Yeah, well, it's not discussed, you know, let's not talk about it.
	So, and then there's a new term, biosolids.
	Have you heard about this?
	Isn't that poop?
	Yes.
	Correct!
	Nashville generates tons of waste each day.
	Sewage sludge delivered to the city's wastewater treatment plant.
	The stay here for some of these materials will be temporary.
	But first, just what exactly is a biosolid?
	Biosolids are residuals from wastewater treatment plants.
	In the past, in Tennessee, most of the biosolids have been landfilled.
	In Nashville they have a new process to produce a product that can be used as a fertilizer.
	UT's Institute of Agriculture has been working with Nashville government to make good use of the 20,000 tons of biosolids produced here every year.
	Waste that used to be sent to a landfill or out of state at a high cost is now being made into a useful product.
	So they want to turn it into fertilizer.
	Well, it kind of is fertilizer, except for the fact that, from my understanding, it contains so much heavy metals that it's really not a good fertilizer.
	Oh, people are very much against this!
	Members of the grassroots organization... Poop!
	It's not just poop!
	Carbon County met Thursday morning in Jim Thorpe to unveil their latest efforts to stop the use of sewage sludge.
	According to the EPA, sewage sludge consists of solids that separate during the treatment of municipal water.
	The sludge is provided from waste management treatment facilities to farmers for use as fertilizer for free.
	In Carbon County, about 5% of farmers use sludge.
	Safe Carbon County is bringing awareness to the use in hopes the percentage doesn't increase.
	Maybe we need to be aware of it and do what we can to prevent it from becoming a real problem.
	Lucy Freck is an officer in the organization who says there are more questions than answers.
	Where was the sludge taken from?
	What wastewater facilities?
	Was it a rural community?
	Was it a city like Philadelphia?
	The organization is asking consumers who buy directly from farmers to learn of sludge's use.
	Hold on a second.
	This is groovy.
	Why does she cite Philadelphia because their poop is particularly toxic or what?
	I guess so.
	They're also creating a resolution allowing local governments to intervene, something they can't do currently.
	What we basically are asking in that resolution is that the individuals at the local level Have input into the use of things like sewage sludge.
	Susan Frye neighbors a farm utilizing sludge.
	A rancid smell for weeks and signage signal when it's been used.
	Once the sludge is applied, they put signs up, no trespassing, class B biosolids applied.
	Frye says in addition to animals grazing over the sludge, it can also be seen in store-bought potting mixes.
	You wonder what's happening to those animals.
	They put the sludge in the garden soil you buy at Lowe's.
	Or, you know, the potting soil.
	It has sludge in it.
	And then you're growing stuff in sludge.
	Fry's biggest concern is her grandkids.
	Especially her grandson, who likes to ride his dirt bike near the farm.
	When it's dry out and this stuff's blowing in the wind, he's inhaling this.
	Blowing sludge!
	He's only 8 at this point.
	So, you know...
	It kind of occurred to me that, you know, well, we have the fertilizer issue.
	First of all, I guess, is there still a shortage?
	Or maybe China will create another shortage because, you know, we don't have the pig urine to create the fertilizer or the nitrogen, or nitrogen will become another issue for climate change.
	And so they're prepping us for sludge.
	Sewage sludge.
	It's a great idea!
	People, grow your vegetables in sewage sludge!
	Last clip.
	While biosolids are considered heavily regulated, those regulations don't cover absolutely everything that could potentially harm us.
	And studies have shown that such concerns aren't completely without merit.
	A 2009 EPA survey found traces of pharmaceuticals, steroids, and flame retardants in various treatment plants' biosolids.
	Flame retardants, John!
	It's good for your vegetables!
	And a 2012 study found that earthworms in biosolid-treated soil had taken in pharmaceuticals and other stuff like disinfectants from antibacterial hand soap.
	But it's unknown if this actually harms the worms or could harm us.
	Even the lead researcher on the worm study called the risks speculative, while the benefits of using biosolids were clear.
	There's also the risk that biosolids could promote superbugs, microbes that are resistant to multiple or all known antibiotics.
	Resistance is a concern whenever microbes are exposed to levels of antibiotics below what kills them outright.
	And that can happen with biosolids, because many of the antibiotics we take end up in our urine and feces.
	We know that resistant bacteria are found in sewage and sludge prior to the treatment process to make biosolids, and sometimes after, depending on the method used.
	So it's possible that these bacteria or their genes could be spread when biosolids are used or produced.
	But some methods seem to be better at killing these bugs than others, so scientists need more information about what works best and why.
	That way, they can find ways to recycle our poop without contributing to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance.
	So we just have to collect more.
	Data, not poop.
	We've got plenty of poop.
	There you go.
	A poopy story.
	A poopy story.
	We're out of control.
	It's bugs.
	Most antibiotics are derived from nature.
	Yeah, but when people hear these stories, they'll be like, give me the bugs.
	Please.
	I don't want to eat poop.
	I don't want bird flu.
	Give me the bugs.
	Tiger poop's okay.
	Tiger poop is okay?
	Yeah.
	Why?
	What's so special about tiger poop?
	A lot of zoos will get you tiger poop.
	It's handy.
	It keeps deer away.
	Oh, but it's not edible.
	You don't eat it.
	Well, I mean, would you use it for your vegetables?
	Yeah.
	Chill it in.
	And these vegetables, after you put in tiger poop, it tastes great!
	Wow.
	You're welcome.
	Okay, well let's talk about climate change.
	Ah, there you go.
	Luckily.
	Okay.
	What you got on climate change?
	I have a minimum, I have a series of, again, I've gotten on this kick of doing these 11 second clips.
	I like, I like, I like anything climate change because that's the, that's the true The true, um, what do you call it?
	That's their, their secret weapon.
	They're gonna, they're gonna get us with that because we just let it go on for decades.
	It's too much money.
	So now they're promoting, this is from PBS, uh, NewsHour with, uh, Lopez took over the show on the weekend.
	Oh.
	And she's got a whiny kind of nasally voice that's really distasteful.
	Is this an upgrade for her or a downgrade?
	Well, she became, no, she's still a reporter, but then they gave her anchor duties.
	Which I think isn't.
	I think they're trying to move her in there, but her voice is so offensive it's very difficult.
	I can't see her going anywhere.
	Okay.
	Just from a perspective of a TV executive.
	Broadcast, yes, TV executive, obviously.
	So let's go, there's a series of clips, climate change, California, New Jersey, some of these places are pushing, teaching climate change to first graders, because it's the best way to get kids propagated, you know, or to promote... Get the kids you've got the future!
	You got the kids, you got the future.
	Let's start with clip one.
	Last month was the warmest April on record and the 11th straight month of record highs around the world.
	Today, nearly a quarter of people globally live in drought conditions and forecasters anticipate this year's Atlantic hurricane season will be the most active on record.
	All signs that climate change is an accelerating threat to the planet.
	Alright, somebody please write this down on May 19th, 2024.
	The claim is that this, this hurricane season will be the worst on record.
	Please write it down.
	On record.
	On record.
	Write it down.
	Which proves, by the way, according to her, the way she presents it.
	Climate change.
	Climate change.
	Climate change is accelerating.
	Yes.
	Spin it up!
	Spin it up.
	Alright, so here we go.
	We're bringing in the expert.
	And young Americans are worried about it.
	No they're not.
	They don't care.
	They do not care.
	They don't believe it.
	What are you talking about?
	They're worried sick.
	Young Americans are worried sick.
	And young Americans are worried about it.
	In fact, 85% of Generation Z is very or somewhat concerned about climate change.
	She said without evidence.
	The only Generation Z who used to be worried was Greta and she's now protesting for Palestine.
	She's so worried about climate change.
	According to a Marist poll from earlier this year.
	In response, states like California, Connecticut, and New Jersey are now teaching kids about climate change in the classroom.
	One of the educators at the forefront of this is Lauren Madden, professor of elementary science education at the College of New Jersey.
	How do you go about incorporating climate change into a classroom curriculum?
	So in New Jersey it's a little bit simpler than it is in some other places because we have standards that are required to be taught at all grade levels in all subject areas.
	So they're really developmentally appropriate and they're good tools for teachers to use to think about ways that they can connect to climate in things they're already doing in the classroom.
	Could you give examples of how lessons about climate change may change from say first grade to ninth or tenth grade?
	Yes, that's really important to be developmentally appropriate, especially when we're talking about working with young children.
	So in the early years, it's really about understanding what lives around you, what's supposed to be here when things happen seasonally, and some of the differences between weather and climate.
	It's not a tough concept for a young child to understand that weather is day-to-day changes while climate How many times did we hear in the past, weather is not climate change?
	we're in ninth or tenth grade especially if we've built this foundation of weather and climate or and how our weather and climate are changing over time then we can start to unpack some of the more nuanced mathematical relationships and how many times did we hear in the past weather is not climate change weather is not climate now they're just saying well you know
	Because of climate change, we have extreme weather events.
	Yeah, I know, isn't that funny?
	No, it's, it's, it's disgusting.
	It is funny to me.
	Yeah, okay.
	But, you know, we're gonna have a whole generation grow up and they're gonna be... Nuts.
	No!
	Well, they'll be nuts, but they will accept all kinds of restrictions on their life and their freedom and their liberty because of climate change.
	Yeah.
	It is our job to stop this, John C. Dvorak.
	Oh, okay!
	By exposing the truth!
	We need a Brighteon channel!
	Rumble.
	Alright, onward with Clip 3.
	Why do you think it's a necessary subject to teach?
	Stop, stop, stop it.
	You have to realize that this Lopez woman, she's not, this is not a conversation.
	No, it's a script.
	She looks, it's not only not a script, she's not even good at, I guess, I don't know if she can't read prompter or what, but she looks down on a sheet of paper.
	A script.
	And reads the question word for word.
	Wow.
	Between each one of these exchanges.
	Wow.
	Just a little visual info for you.
	Okay.
	A little visual for you.
	Thank you.
	Why do you think it's a necessary subject to teach students?
	So I think it's really important that we don't lie to children, especially young children.
	Our children are seeing the effects of climate change in unprecedented ways.
	They're experiencing changes in their day-to-day lives that none of us have seen before.
	So, for example, last spring here in New Jersey and across the East Coast... Oh, I can't wait for this.
	I lived in New Jersey.
	What are we seeing now that I never saw in New Jersey?
	Please inform me.
	We experienced dust in the air from Canadian wildfires.
	And that was something that affected children, all children.
	And that was climate change?
	It was called bad forest management.
	And pyromania.
	Right, and arson.
	Pyromania.
	I like pyromania.
	Arson.
	Their ability to play outside, their ability to go about their day-to-day life.
	And we need to be clear with kids.
	Wait a minute.
	Did she say dust?
	It was smoke!
	It was smoke!
	Small!
	She said dust!
	So for example, last spring here in New Jersey and across the East Coast, we experienced dust in the air from Canadian wildfires.
	It was dust!
	It was smoke!
	And that was something that affected children, all children.
	Their ability to play outside, their ability to go about their day-to-day life.
	Lock them down!
	We got dust in the air!
	Climate change!
	Stay indoors!
	Get on your computer, watch some porn.
	And we need to be clear with kids and let them know that something is happening, and this isn't just a bunch of surprise things that are going on, and scientists know what's going on.
	Yes, yes, kids, it's called fire.
	Exactly.
	It's fire.
	That's her example?
	Yeah, yeah, you lived in New Jersey?
	You never experienced that?
	Well, we definitely had very smoky days from other stuff in New Jersey, but, you know, okay, it wasn't necessarily from Canada, but it was fires.
	It wasn't climate change.
	Are we supposed to connect in our brain?
	Well, Canada spontaneously combusted because of climate change, and then we got dust.
	Dust?
	This is ridiculous.
	And this was on, this is PBS.
	This is PBS NewsHour.
	This should be abolished.
	Here we go.
	Oh, sorry.
	This is a shorty.
	Do you need to set this up, this short one?
	No, it'll be set up by itself.
	But the other more important piece is that our economy is going to change.
	What the future looks like and what the industries are that will be employing our children in the future will be around climate solutions.
	What?
	Climate solutions!
	So there's not going to be any more plumbers, or auto mechanics, or toll takers, or gardeners.
	Everything's about climate solutions.
	All the jobs.
	This is what Biden kind of says.
	All the jobs are going to be about climate solutions.
	But there'll be good-paying jobs.
	What's a climate solution job?
	There'll be good-paying union jobs.
	Hey, what do you do?
	I'm in climate solutions.
	Oh.
	Oh, excellent.
	Well, you're getting wet.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	Wait, where was she from, this lady?
	She is some director of climate teacher teaching or something.
	She's got a degree in it.
	And she goes around, I guess, telling people to teach more about climate.
	Yeah, she needs to be tarred and feathered.
	Run out of town.
	Both of them.
	Yeah.
	We also spoke with a high school art teacher in New Jersey about the impact of working climate change into her art lessons.
	Oh, yes.
	Let's get them everywhere we can, even in art class.
	Don't express yourself.
	Draw climate change.
	I feel that it's very important for students to know about the realities of... Oh, is she crying?
	She sounds very emotional.
	I couldn't tell, you know, that Susan, the senator from Vermont or Maine or wherever she is, Susan Collins.
	She had something wrong with her throat.
	She's either got that syndrome or she's nervous.
	And I was watching her.
	I think she's nervous.
	She's just nervous to be on TV.
	I feel that it's very important for students to know about the realities of the circumstances that they're living through.
	And as educators, I think we also have an obligation To teach students and guide students through the difficulties of not only understanding this, but also emotionally processing the severity of the situation.
	Okay, this is an art teacher, which is fantastic.
	So, kids, I want you to process the emotional trials you're going through with the reality of climate change.
	This is child abuse.
	Plain and simple, child abuse.
	You are scaring children.
	You're doing it purposefully.
	Honestly, these people are stupid.
	I used to put all teachers on a pedestal.
	No more.
	Bring in the housekeepers.
	Or housekeepers.
	Homeschool.
	Housekeepers to homeschool.
	Actually, most of the teachers should be housekeepers.
	There you go.
	Number six.
	How can teachers like that one, Carolyn McGrath, help students navigate anxiety and stress about climate change?
	First of all, we need to be honest with them and we need to be truthful.
	And we need to let them know that the scientists have really good predictions out there.
	And we have a good sense of what kinds of things are going to be happening into the future.
	But I think to ease anxiety, aside from being honest and making sure that our children are well informed, We need to tell them about the types of solutions that exist already.
	Solutions!
	I love that we're back to solutions and this is exactly why on Tuesday I'm finalizing our global warming climate change best-of show for next Sunday.
	So we can hear how accurate they all have been over the course of this program, over almost 17 years, the accuracy of these predictions from the scientists who all agree, 98% of them, sometimes it's 97, that climate change is real and we're all going to die.
	And that show will be to play for parents so they can educate their children that this is a lie, this is not true.
	This is just bunk, but there's so much money in it.
	So we have the woman making the statement that there are solutions, and of course the solution is get rid of fossil fuel and go back into the dark ages.
	And I think the best way to... Sorry, was that... I'm sorry, yeah, I went on seven.
	And I think the best way to ease anxiety is to foster positive actions and also thoughts about large-scale solutions that they can contribute to as children and in the future.
	You talked over it.
	I want to hear it again.
	Play that whole clip again.
	It's a short clip.
	What she's saying is that she wants to make sure the kids are brainwashed and they become activists.
	This is basically what's in this clip.
	And they become, when they get older, because nothing's going to get done without them.
	And so they're all going to become activists.
	And she doesn't say it, but they're all going to vote Democrat.
	I think the best way to ease anxiety is to foster positive actions and also thoughts about large-scale solutions that they can contribute to as children and in the future.
	So every child is going to be a climate solutions expert.
	And when I hear this first bit of her clip, it makes me think of something else.
	I think the best way to ease anxiety is to foster positive actions.
	Oh, there's no winning.
	We don't like to foster a competitive atmosphere, but we laugh a lot.
	Now everyone hug and share a secret.
	It's that foster word.
	Same one.
	Same lady.
	And that was seven, I believe, with the kicker.
	Short 11 seconds.
	These are short.
	And here's the bonus clip.
	I don't like them going this long, but they're also short.
	I like it.
	There's a bonus clip, and here it is.
	I mean, in states like Florida, they're seeing rising sea levels and record temperatures, but Governor Ron DeSantis recently signed a bill that deletes most mentions of climate change in state law.
	What do you say to educators in states like Florida about how to teach climate change when they may be dealing with elected leaders who reject that it exists?
	Who pays for this?
	I mean, is it literally just the government has put so much money into it, there's just hundreds of billions of dollars floating around that this drivel can be made and propagated upon the public and the children?
	Somebody's got to be behind it.
	How do we stop this?
	I don't think it can be stopped.
	Can it be stopped?
	There's so much money, decades of money has been put into this.
	It's baffling to me.
	And everyone buys it hook, line, and sinker.
	And then they're going to propagate a whole new generation of kids that are going to be brainwashed from the first grade.
	And their finger painting will now have to show the burning sun scorched earth and dead animals.
	I don't know what the end is.
	Get the kids all, you know, their dogs gonna die because of climate change.
	Here's how it ends.
	The kids are coming for us.
	They're gonna turn us into mulch.
	Mulch.
	They're gonna kill the old people and turn them into mulch.
	Well, that's already been a story we've done on the show.
	I know, but that's probably what they're teaching him.
	Alright kids, so now you're done with your finger painting about the scorched earth.
	Let's go after granny and grandpa.
	Let's get him.
	Mulch him.
	Mulch him!
	Mulch them.
	With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage.
	Say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in climate solution.
	Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only, Mr. John C. DuBois!
	In the morning to you, Mr. Abrupt.
	In the morning, all ships and seaboats on the ground, feed in the air.
	Subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there.
	It's a natural break, man.
	We finished the topic of being mulch.
	It's a natural break.
	We got, hello trolls, we got 2146 trolls.
	That is way up.
	We had 1943 on the last Sunday Night Show.
	we got uh hello trolls we got 2146 trolls that is way up 19 we had 1943 on the last uh they start bailing out after a while i guess oh no i mean what do you mean this is what's This is the same time as last Sunday.
	So we got more.
	It was exactly the same time?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	We've been doing, like, Mr. Abrupt.
	Hey, look, I'm managing the control room here.
	I know, you got the hair trigger.
	We gotta move the show along, man.
	We gotta move it along.
	And the reason why is we want to thank our executive and associate executive producers, along with our trolls, of course.
	We love having the trolls in the troll room.
	Trollroom.io.
	You can join them there for every live show, Thursdays and Sundays, or with the Modern Podcast app, which will alert you when we go live, and within 90 seconds of publishing the show.
	If you can't listen live, it'll also alert you for that, and you'll know that you're good to go on listening to the podcast.
	Also, all of the art that is created by our artists shows up as chapter images, and as a part of the Value for Value model, we like to thank our artists right up front for the work they put in.
	They're always doing this live and in real time so that we can have something to choose right after we're done with the show so we can publish.
	We have a pretty quick turnaround time.
	I mean, I think we're one of the quickest turnaround times of any show of this stature and size.
	Mainly because we don't edit anything.
	No, we just leave it in there.
	This is true.
	Yeah, why would you do that?
	I don't get it.
	People like to hear you mumbling and grumbling.
	Yeah, and it's only me that does that.
	Mm-hmm.
	So, Time Talent Treasure is all we ask in return for the work that we provide for you.
	We've been doing it for almost 17 years.
	It'll be our 17th anniversary in October.
	And our artists definitely provide time and talent.
	We want to thank Pickle Surprise.
	Who surprised us?
	And I'm not sure if Pickle Surprise has ever won the slot before.
	No, but we looked at his art, or her art.
	It's art.
	I think it's a he, I can't tell.
	Them's art.
	Them's art.
	And there's a lot of pieces that were, that could have been winners.
	So it's not like this person's a slouch.
	No, I think it was definitely, we've considered some of Pickle Surprise's art before, but I don't know if they've ever had a win.
	But this, we both liked it.
	There's just no two ways about it.
	We discussed a few other pieces, but this is the funky looking cow.
	Um, underneath it says... Smiling Cow, it's a very happy smiling cow.
	Yes, because that cow is, as it says... That cow, look at the cow, it puts a smile on your face.
	And the cow's caption is, now laced with listeria.
	And what was fun about this is it had a vertical split.
	of the art, which is not something we commonly see.
	And to the right was a bottle of milk.
	Very rare layout.
	I like the color palette, although I'm not the guy that decides in color because I'm kind of colorblind.
	Yeah, he's colorblind.
	But the palette was nice.
	We enjoyed it.
	It was a good, solid piece.
	I would have liked to have seen.
	Yeah.
	I mean, the use of serif fonts with no agenda in Korean Dvorak, I think would have been better off with a bolder sans serif font like a Franklin Gothic, one of the various weights of that, would have been, I think, made the piece jump one of the various weights of that, would have been, I think, made the But except for that, that's my only complaint.
	Oh, that's some good feedback.
	I can't, I can't provide that feedback.
	That's, that's all you.
	You're good at that.
	I just like the color.
	I like pretty colors.
	And a funny cow.
	And a smiling face.
	A smiling cow, I like that.
	We had, let's see, Nick the Rat tried with some kind of mechanical cow, but it didn't really come across.
	Didn't jump.
	No, it didn't jump.
	That was monochrome.
	Matt Boisvert had a disgusting piece with a cow shooting milk out of its udders and killing its fish.
	Yeah, it's no good.
	No, that was definitely no good.
	Nice to see ComicStripBlogger posted the picture of me with the Tantaniel from 33 years ago.
	That was kind of funny.
	Magic number.
	Yeah, very magic number.
	And was there anything else?
	War Eagle tried a milk bottle, tastes like poop.
	We did get a chuckle out of the gob of goo with the pistachio, but we didn't think anyone would really get it.
	And what else do we have?
	I kind of like the Tantanille Educate, you know, It didn't hold the candle to the pickle surprise, but it was simple.
	Chicken, lactating animal.
	It was okay.
	It was alright.
	Yeah, that was okay.
	It was okay.
	But in general, though, we saw and we were like, that's the one.
	Pickle surprise.
	Congratulations.
	Thank you.
	Thank you to all the artists who always diligently work during the show, during the live show.
	And they come and go.
	You know, not everybody can work during the show.
	We've changed the live show time a couple years ago.
	That brought a whole new bunch of artists in and moved some out.
	But we appreciate it.
	And we'd now like to thank our Executive and Associate Executive Producers.
	Associate Executive Producer, $200 and above.
	We read your notes.
	Executive Producer, $300 and above.
	We read your note and we kick it off with Dr. Sir Awesome Jason from Smyrna, Georgia.
	And a rare, at this level, show number donation, 1661.33.
	Magic number.
	Very nice to add the magic number and sent in a typewritten note which I have here.
	In the morning, John and Adam, I hope you can use this treasure to continue providing your valuable services.
	This is a true return of value, recognizing our valuable services.
	And as Dr. Sir1AwesomeJasonPhD says, services include, but not limited to, Good News Segment, 3x3, Reading Legislation, and Clip of the Days.
	And he winds, he closes by saying, I do believe this donation brings me to the level of Baronet.
	Sincerely, Dr. Sir One Awesome Jason, Ph.D., formerly Sir, insert name here, Smyrna, Georgia.
	And thank you very much.
	Yes, you will be awarded with your upgraded title later on.
	Thank you for your courage.
	Fantastic.
	Yeah, that was a good one.
	It really helped out.
	Saved the day.
	No Agenda Shop comes up, finally with some Gitmo Nation Georgia.
	Talking about Georgia, they've got two Georgians coming in.
	The Georgia contingent is here.
	Yes.
	And he says, long time no see.
	That's right.
	Where have you been?
	Sorry for my absence lately.
	I've been swamped by the arrival of our first human resource six weeks ago.
	Aha!
	That'll do it.
	Congratulations.
	Do we have a name?
	Do we have a name?
	Not on this note.
	And will we now see baby apparel in the No Agenda Shop?
	No Agenda baby apparel, hmm?
	Oh, there's an idea.
	I'm just saying.
	Expect another donation in a few weeks, as this is only a partial share of what's due.
	Huh.
	Eh, spend it on the kid.
	I'll take any karma you can spare.
	Adios!
	Yeah, we got lots of karma for you, No Agenda Shop.
	You've got karma.
	Always have karma for you.
	Then we have Sir Sab from Kellogg, Idaho, 350.93 and it's a switcheroo!
	ITM John Adam, please accept this somewhat overdue treasure in return for the value that you both provide each and every episode of the best podcast in the universe.
	This donation is a switcheroo for my smoking hot wife, 30 years this August, and they never had a fight.
	Amy Miller, whom I've hit in the mouth on a regular basis throughout the years.
	We love the media deconstruction you both provide and share clips with each other regularly.
	Please de-douche.
	You've been de-douched.
	I'm curious, let me know how you, how do you share your clips?
	Do you use one of those podcast apps or, you know, just let me know.
	I'm curious how you share the clips.
	The next step is to guide her with an install of a mod- Oh!
	There you go.
	With an install of a modern podcast app so she can fully appreciate the features they provide.
	Chapters, artwork, etc.
	Hashtag Native Ad.
	Here is to four more years of helping us keep our amygdalas in check and I would love a little bit of R2-D2 karma and thank you both for your courage.
	From the Idaho panhandle Sir Sab of the Silver Valley.
	You've got Karma.
	Got it.
	Robbie Woe in Henderson, Nevada.
	Nice town.
	That's $3.58.
	This is my first time donating.
	I think I began listening to your show after hearing Adam on the Rogan Show.
	Rogan donation.
	What you guys have achieved is nothing short of amazing and inspiring.
	The way I look forward to hearing your show reminds me of how lucky I am to have begun listening.
	The world's in trouble and the devil is doing his best work we've seen in a long time.
	Now in schools.
	Now in schools and on the Grammys.
	Everywhere.
	Adam, your newfound faith in Jesus Christ has impacted my own faith.
	I really have admiration for your courage to speak up.
	It's on the podcast.
	Because it takes a lot of effort and dedication and confidence to do so.
	I love hearing the stories from your past and how it relates to your view of a subject in the mainstream media.
	It's really refreshing to hear your take on the topic of the day.
	John, when you talk about your days as a rat poop inspector, I'm always laughing.
	I can, in certain ways, sympathize with you for having a dirty job.
	I was an air pollution inspector, not a rat poop.
	I would refer to the health department guys as the rat poop inspectors.
	Take the win, man.
	Take the win.
	Take the model.
	As I spend a lot of time in manufacturing plants doing steam system surveys.
	There's a lot of plants in bad shape, especially in the food processing ones.
	Oh.
	Hint.
	Anyways, you guys keep doing what you're doing, and I sincerely thank you both for your time and dedication to enlightening people like me about what's really going on in the world.
	Having a relatable podcast to listen to really means the world to me.
	Respectfully, Robbie Woe.
	Thank you, Robbie.
	We move on to Bedford, Massachusetts, 343.75.
	Rajiv Voleti.
	I have nothing from Rajiv.
	It's blank.
	Blank here.
	You got nothing?
	You see nothing?
	I don't have anything.
	I got nuttin'.
	Okay, well, Rajiv, you get a double up Karma just for that.
	You've got... Double up!
	...Karma.
	That brings us to Sir Infinitis and Fuquay Varina.
	Fuquay.
	However it's pronounced in North Carolina.
	Fuquay.
	Fuquay!
	North Carolina.
	He's in North Carolina.
	34375.
	ITM, thank you for your continued courage and please forgive my long periods between donations.
	Please absolve me from being a douche!
	You've been de-douched.
	Thank you for keeping us all sane in these tumultuous times.
	Keep the faith!
	We invite your intelligent audience, intelligent audience, to show their support for veteran-owned and operated businesses, specifically the only surgical medical device company in the United States that specializes in surgical positioning for robotic surgery and orthopedics.
	You can see our innovations at infinitismedical.com.
	Infinitismedical.com, all one word.
	If you're in healthcare, please stop listening to your corrupt group purchasing organization, GPOs, and their contract offerings.
	They neither test or perform comparative clinical value analysis on any of the products on their contracts.
	They care about their kickbacks and profits more than they do provider safety or patient safety.
	I'm breathing it in his voice.
	Yes, I can tell.
	Happy to debate that in any public forum, anytime, any day of the week.
	Stay strong, stay honest.
	Sincerely, Sir Infinitis.
	We will hook you up with Ben Shapiro.
	You could probably debate him.

	May I humbly request a de-douche?
	You've been de-douched.
	No jingles, however.
	Could I get a double dose of karma, job and relationship karma, future Dame Shae Delane?
	For now, just a lady-in-waiting.
	Thank you for your courage.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got Karma.

	And he says, ITM, John and Adam, with this donation, my deadbeat ass finally becomes a knight after four pleasurable years.
	A true millennial scumbag from the great state of New Jersey, my life and my family's have been profoundly changed after getting hit in the mouth following Adam's first appearance on Rogan.
	Another Rogan donation.
	Yes, I need to go on Rogan again.
	It works.
	Excuse me.
	I remember that day vividly, as I was on my way into work at Comcast in Philly, two weeks before the lockdowns.
	COVID anxiety was heavy, and Adam's appearance unshackled my coddled millennial brain.
	After a brief stint under the COVID spell for about three weeks, my wife and I were able to break that spell and have never looked back.
	Five years ago, we just went with the flow.
	Thought CNN was fine.
	Didn't question 9-11.
	I love this note.
	Or think twice about Big Pharma and vaccines.
	Here we are, five years later, after having a home birth for our first child, planning to homeschool, vax-free, moving to Amish Lake country to truly get back to how humans are meant to live, locally.
	Wow.
	His wife has become a housekeeper, John.
	This is good.
	Yeah, housekeeper.
	This show activated the critical thinking part of my brain, and I am forever grateful.
	Witness this donation.
	We appreciate it.
	But there's more.
	It also allowed me to get to know some of the most awesome people with my fellow No Agenda-ers from the South Jersey Meetups.
	Shout out to Wynn.
	For my knighthood, I would be honored if you could grant me the name of Sir Misohani of the Lakes.
	Hookers and blower, I must at the round table with a side of mutton.

	Eli the Coffee Guy in Bensonville, Illinois comes in with $205.20.
	And he says, I urge producers to check out the show notes for the episodes.
	It's an amazing resource that even a long-time listener, I have never taken the time to explore until recently.
	It blows Dredge Report and other news aggregators out of the water.
	It also gave me perspective on how much information you guys wade through to create the show.
	Thank you for your courage, and for all those folks out there who will be up light going down rabbit holes from the show notes, coffee helps.
	Visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com and use the code ITM20 for 20% off your purchase.
	Stay caffeinated.
	Eli the Coffee Guy.
	I do have a comment to make here.
	You know, it's interesting, and I'd like to have an explanation for this.
	So I have a cappuccino maker.
	It's a fancy one, a very fancy one.
	A fancy one.
	And so to get the coffee out of the little container, the little thing you stick in there, you pound on this device, and I don't know what the name of the thing is, but you pound on it until the thing flies out.
	Yeah, you knock it out.
	You knock it out.
	Yeah.
	And so when coffee is ground with the same grind and noted, you know, you change to adjust the grind a little bit from type of coffee to type of coffee.
	But when the coffee is roasted dark, about five pounds on the thing will get the coffee plug out of the device.
	But when it's a light roast of any sort, you have to just pound away forever to get the damn plug out.
	And I'd like to know why.
	Now, do you do that against the side of the trash bin?
	Because that's how I used to do it.
	No, no, I have a device.
	A professional device that you hit.
	Oh really?
	It comes with the machine, yeah.
	Oh!
	Yeah.
	Oh, that's scary.
	It's like a rubbery thing and you just pound away on it and it falls into a container.
	And then you throw the container out eventually.
	So it's a coffee maker and a workout device.
	Yeah, it's my exercise.
	Who needs more?
	Let's be honest.
	Well, there's that.
	Well, let's see.
	Maybe he'll come back with an answer.
	I don't know if there is an answer.
	And for people wondering... I just find it annoying, to be honest about it.
	Well, then maybe just stay with the dark roast.
	No, no.
	The light roasts are better.
	You get more caffeine and they have just a better flavor.
	Wait a minute.
	You get more caffeine from a light roast than from a dark roast?
	Yeah, that's what everyone says.
	Huh.
	Interesting.
	Thank you, Eli.

	$200.
	Associate Executive Producer.
	I recently received a check for an excessive overtime grievance at UPS, so I decided to send some money to support the best podcast in the universe.
	I'd like a belated birthday shout-out to my son, Nick.
	He was celebrated on May 6th.
	And a TPP Jobs Karma for him.
	Jingle, something hot on my leg, which I looked, that's something you might have said in a... No, no, we have a clip.
	But it's a clip?
	Yeah.
	I mean, I... You used to play it in with the, oh, look at the juice, and then you'd have the something hot on my leg clip.
	Oh.
	It is a clip.
	Oh, hold on a second.
	Juice, maybe it's juice leg?
	Juice leg.
	There's a show title.
	Can you just... Let me write it down before I forget.
	Juice leg, man.
	So it was part of Look at That Juice?
	No, it would be played in conjunction with it, but it wasn't part of the series that was collected.
	I felt something running down my... juice running down my leg.
	It was like... Hot juice, maybe?
	Jeanine Pirro or somebody said it.
	Um... Janine?
	Wow.
	Well, I don't think she said it, but it was somebody like that.
	I'm sorry.
	I can't find it.
	Someone's gonna have to send it to me.
	We'll find it and re-brand it.
	Yeah, we'll re-brand it.
	And I will give you a sad replacement for now.
	I got hairy legs!
	He also wants to hear Trump dumps little girl Ye and the TPP jobs karma, as I said, for his son Nick.
	They did dumps.
	They call them dumps.
	Big, massive dumps.
	Yay!
	Jobs!
	You've got karma.
	Linda Lou Patkin is up, and she's, well, she's not the last, but she's the second to the last, and she's in Lakewood, Colorado.
	And she, as usual, comes in with $200 and wants Jobs Karma, and has a message, which is, for a speedier job search, go to ImageMakersInc.com for all your executive resume and job search needs.
	That's Image Makers, Inc.
	It's I-N-K.
	Or find Linda LuPak in Duchess of Jobs and Writer of Resumes on the Producers List.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got karma.
	And our final Associate Executive Producer is Donald Ripple.
	No, I'm sorry, Vincent Brian... Vincent Brian Bodie de la Marasse.
	Hmm.
	I thought it was Moroso, but Moross?
	I don't know.
	I'm just looking in the email to see if someone came in.
	And I looked for the email.
	It says, see my note emailed separately.
	And he gave his email address there.
	Did you see anything?
	Because I did not find anything.
	Well, here I have a bunch of emails from him.
	Oh, well good.
	Wait, but... But?
	I'm going to read the titles of each one.
	Executive producer for show 1637.
	Executive producer for show 1637, the second note.
	And then a third note, executive producer for show 1648.
	No!
	No note.
	Vincent Bryan, we'll give you a double up, Karma.
	Resend your note.
	We'll make good on the next show.
	You've got...
	And that concludes our list of executive and associate executive producers, just like Hollywood.
	We'd like to thank them in the opening credits, more or less, kind of, you know, in the abrupt opening credits.
	These are real credits.
	You can use anywhere that credits are recognized, which includes your LinkedIn profile, anything on social media, of course, you can put anything there, but you could even open up, if you don't have one, an IMDB account.
	Because these are very official executive or associate executive producer credits.
	We appreciate that.
	We'll be thanking more people, $50 and above.
	And as always, we appreciate everyone who comes in with the sustaining donations, which if everybody did, would make life a lot easier.
	But it's what it is.
	We take what we can get.
	And we thank you again for being producers for episode 10661.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Water. Order.
	Shut up, slays.
	Shut up, slave!
	Now I'm not sure, I'm not sure if I heard it right.
	What are you drinking?
	Did you open something?
	No, I did not.
	I have not opened anything yet, but I want to play a Biden clip.
	Alright.
	I have two.
	Two shorties, both.
	Okay.
	Versus the, I didn't know this, but this is the NAACP clip.
	My name's Joe Biden.
	And I'm a lifetime member of the NAACP.
	This falls right into Trump's gag.
	That's exactly what Trump was saying.
	I'm black.
	He should have said, I'm black.
	I've been black all my life.
	That would be, that would have been funny.
	And then here's the more typical one.
	This is Biden, most supreme ever.
	That's why my administration is taking the most significant action notwithstanding the Supreme Court tried to stop me.
	Provide student debt relief.
	Most supreme ever.
	What?
	Most supreme ever?
	Yeah, student debt relief.
	Most supreme ever.
	I hear there's an opening for a supreme leader of Iran.
	Maybe you can go work over there.
	Let's get in there.
	We have a, although only a top level, we have a report come in.
	The findings of the investigation into the death of the Boeing whistleblower.
	Tina actually had a good question.
	She wanted to know when this poor man took his life, supposedly, in his truck in front of the hotel.
	While eating lunch.
	She wants to know, did he finish his lunch?
	And that is not included in the report.
	We're hearing from a friend and colleague of Boeing whistleblower John Barnett and his attorneys, that after both police and the coroner say that he died by suicide.
	The department issued a 56-page supplemental report detailing the investigation, as well as a note found in Barnett's truck.
	Tonight, his attorney said even if Boeing did not directly pull the trigger, it did so indirectly.
	The investigation found nothing suspicious.
	No people in Barnett's hotel room.
	No one following him in or out of the hotel.
	No fingerprints other than Barnett's on the gun or on the note.
	Our investigative reporter Anne Emerson just spoke with Roy Irvin, a former investigator at Boeing.
	He's also a whistleblower that no one has spoken with before on camera.
	She showed him the suicide note.
	Is that the John you knew?
	No.
	No.
	Did he talk like that?
	No.
	Not all over the place like that.
	No.
	He had never expressed those kind of sentiments to you before?
	No.
	No.
	Do you think this is his?
	You know, unfortunately, we weren't close enough...
	I couldn't say that, but I would say no, not in the frame of mind of the last several times I talked to him, no.
	And, you know, like I said before, the only way that I would believe that he committed suicide was if I saw it on camera, but that doesn't ring true for John.
	So here's another whistleblower.
	No one has spoken to before, and what I find interesting as I look at this 56 page report, very top line, I did not see a copy of the suicide note or the contents thereof, but yet these people have one apparently.
	I'd like to know more.
	I'm not satisfied with these answers.
	You know what I mean?
	Doesn't feel right.
	Sounds like a professional hit to me.
	Yeah, and then, oh, well, the fingerprints were on the gun and on the suicide note.
	Duh.
	That's how you do it.
	You wipe it clean, put his hands on the gun, and now this guy.
	And what is it?
	Is this guy going to testify?
	This is all very, very fishy.
	Meanwhile, the Department of Justice is going after Boeing.
	I'm heading to the United Nations Environment Assembly.
	Darcy Bellinger recorded this video before he boarded the Boeing 737 Max 8 that crashed in Ethiopia.
	His family now suing Boeing for the company's role in the crash.
	Boeing has had three or four years after the two MAX 8 crashes to clean up their act.
	They have failed.
	Attorney Mark Lindquist represents Bellinger's family.
	Boeing ended up cutting a sweetheart deal with the Department of Justice, a deferred prosecution agreement.
	But now, the Department of Justice alleges Boeing has breached that 2021 agreement to avoid prosecution for the MAX 8 crashes by, quote, failing to design, implement, and enforce a compliance and ethics program.
	Frankly, I think both Boeing and the FAA itself should adhere to a safety management system.
	Washington Senator Maria Cantwell, who oversees the Senate Transportation Committee, tells me strict federal oversight is needed to fix Boeing and protect passengers.
	We have a lot of people on the line, engineers and machinists, who need to make sure that there's someone there backing them up.
	When they say, look, I have a concern about this process, I think this is a better way to go.
	The planemaker has been under pressure after recent incidents, including a door plug failure and delays of certifying the new MAX 10.
	I want to see Boeing succeed.
	Most of us want to see Boeing succeed.
	But Boeing cannot function as its own watchdog.
	We're going to need federal oversight to reform Boeing.
	Well, that doesn't sound good.
	This is a disaster.
	Yes.
	Because Boeing's an important company in the United States for more than a few reasons.
	They can't get their rocket to work either.
	They're trying to, you know, compete with SpaceX and they can't do that.
	Right.
	This place, this operation needs an overhaul and I have to just blame the board of directors for not doing their job.
	This is a bunch of slouches that obviously weren't paying attention to anything.
	So when the government steps in to help, what does that look like?
	It looks like I lost money.
	It's gonna cost a fortune.
	It's one of those government things where they're gonna make you pay.
	Oh, okay.
	Okay, I got it.
	Hmm.
	Always makes me a little wary as our former President Trump flies a 757.
	Wonder what they did with that thing.
	Well, that was yours.
	I mean, that's an old plane.
	It is.
	Yeah, but you still have to put new parts into it periodically.
	Yeah, uh-huh.
	Well, there's not, there's 30,000 flights a day in the United States alone.
	No, I know.
	And the planes aren't dropping out of the sky left and right.
	No, of course not.
	Because the choppers and helicopters are.
	Of course not.
	And at the same time, you know, there was an Airbus that caught fire at the gate.
	You know, CO2 canister caught fire.
	Airbus.
	You didn't hear about it, because it was an Airbus.
	You didn't hear about it.
	How does a CO2 canister catch fire?
	It's not flammable.
	Yeah, well, there's a specific procedure, and if your ground personnel don't follow it, then somehow that can ignite.
	I'm not sure.
	It can't ignite.
	It's not possible.
	I'm just telling you what I read.
	I don't know.
	I don't know.
	But the fact is, it was an Airbus that was on fire and you didn't hear about it.
	And if I was going to do something to the President... Was that the one that was on fire at the gate?
	Yes.
	Yeah, I heard about it.
	It was on the news.
	They never said it was an Airbus.
	They implied it was a Boeing plane.
	Exactly!
	So if I was going to have something bad happen to a former or maybe future President, you know, it's the Boeing.
	Set it up.
	Tee it up!
	Just a thought.
	What else you gonna do?
	If you're desperate.
	So far, well, let's take a listen to a Trump clip.
	Okay.
	Here's a Trump trial redux from NPR.
	What's going on?
	Finally, Michael Cohen, of course, Trump's former lawyer, testified this week at the Hush Money trial.
	House Speaker Mike Johnson and Ohio Senator J.D.
	Vance were among Republicans who came to show their support by sitting in the Manhattan courtroom.
	What does this say about the Republican Party and Donald Trump as the trial enters its final weeks or even days?
	Yes.
	Well, it says that the party is not only lined up behind Trump, but available at his beck and call.
	In the early phases of the trial, Trump sometimes seemed rather isolated in the courtroom.
	It was noticed that his son Eric was perhaps his most prominent supporter there.
	But outside the court, of course, and on social media, Trump had been denouncing the trial and the charges and various figures in the case.
	And that continued until the judge in the case fined him.
	Repeatedly, and threatened to jail him if he didn't stop.
	So this past week, Trump seems to have calmed down quite a bit on social media, and rotating groups of congressional Republicans started showing up in New York to be a kind of Greek chorus, speaking Trump's lines for him.
	Among them was House Speaker Johnson, Mike Johnson, who had a press conference outside the courthouse to call the case a sham.
	And this way, of course, Trump is getting his complaints out into the public with high visibility without incurring further penalties in the courtroom and his supporters have a chance to perform a service for the leader.
	What a dumb, dumb update report they just delivered there.
	That's the NPR.
	I mean, what really is happening is Trump's legal team cross-examined Michael Cohen and just beat him to a pulp.
	And everyone is like, well, this guy's just lying.
	He's just a liar.
	Everything they said, they said, well, he was lying.
	He's just been lying.
	He's a liar!
	Yeah, that's what he does.
	And you think I said liar, but I said lawyer.
	He's a lawyer.
	He's a liar.
	And so nothing's going to happen in that case, of course.
	It's just to keep him off the campaign trail.
	He's working on new material.
	I think he does material.
	I think he's writing new material in the courtroom.
	He's like, oh, I'll write this.
	I saw some of these clips, too.
	He's got new stuff.
	Yeah, he's good.
	Little bits he's doing about buying are really getting there.
	It's good.
	Quality stuff.
	His delivery, everything is on point.
	It's fantastic.
	A friend of mine... The thing that's funny that should be noted is that There are people, the Trump haters out there, they don't see any humor in what he does.
	No, it's sad, because it's hilarious.
	They don't get his jokes, they don't understand what he's up to.
	Yeah, they don't get it.
	And it is sad, it's like, can you see that he's doing a set?
	I mean, even in PR.
	A set!
	Great set, Prez.
	Great set.
	In fact, I have a clip.
	Great tonight.
	Joe Rogan called.
	He wants you at the Mothership Comedy Club.
	It's going to be a great set.
	He could work it.
	Yes.
	There's a clip.
	You can look it up.
	You might as well just play this because it's part of it.
	The clip was from last week or last show.
	NPR dissects Trump rallies.
	Oh, good, because I have some.
	Okay, yeah, let me play this.
	Donald Trump 2024 campaign speech can be many things, a forum to air grievances, a place to brag, a place for lengthy stream-of-consciousness responses to the news of the day.
	And Donald Trump's speeches provide some insight into how the former president would govern if he wins in November.
	And P.R.
	Stephen Fowler, listen to this.
	Do these people really believe themselves?
	Watch the way the guy talks.
	Now, since you stopped it, I should mention something here.
	I think this is a fair report.
	And in fact, I don't have the whole thing, but this guy who went to all the Trump rallies, when he says he talks about Trump and his bloodbath comment, He puts it in context.
	Oh, stop.
	And says he's specifically talking about the auto industry.
	They want him to win!
	They want him to win!
	Well, I don't think the NPR wants him to win, but I think at least this guy's fair.
	Donald Trump's speech provides some insight into how the former president If you've ever listened to a Trump rally, you know about its infamous playlist that runs for hours before he speaks.
	Listen to 15 campaign speeches from this year and notes the themes and promises that make up a Trump rally set list.
	If you've ever listened to a Trump rally, you know about its infamous playlist that runs for hours before he speaks.
	An eclectic mix of songs that ranges from Elton John's Tiny Dancer to Phantom of the Opera and culminates with Lee Greenwood's country classics.
	But it's also helpful to think of what Trump says at these events as his own curated playlist.
	Never the same topics in the same order, heavy on the greatest hits, but with plenty of space left for new tracks that riff on what's popular.
	Plenty of his speech is tied to where he is, who he's talking to, and how it fits in the political moment.
	Take this throwback rally all the way back in January in Indianola, Iowa.
	Hello, Iowa.
	One day from now, we're going to win.
	Iowa's first in the nation caucuses.
	It's the night before the first presidential primary contest, so Trump's remarks feature diss tracks against top rivals Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, plus crowd-pleasing mentions of tariffs that affect Iowa farmers and increased access to ethanol.
	But there's also plenty of typical Trumpian failure.
	Hold on a second.
	Did he say diss tracks?
	Yes, this is his analogy.
	Is the NPR audience aware of rap diss tracks?
	No.
	Okay, I just wanted to check, because that was out of left field for NPR.
	It's the night before the first presidential primary contest, so Trump's remarks feature diss tracks against top rivals Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, plus crowd-pleasing mentions of tariffs that affect Iowa farmers and increased access to ethanol.
	But there's also plenty of typical Trumpian fare that could have been delivered anywhere.
	But these caucuses are your personal chance to score the ultimate victory over all of the liars, cheaters, thugs, perverts, frauds, crooks, freaks, creeps, and other quite nice people.
	It can be hard for even seasoned observers to track what's new or notable in his speeches.
	The runtime is often more than an hour and can switch tone and topics at random.
	So this guy went to 15?
	Wow, they must call him a hero that you're such a hero.
	The way, if you parse it, he went to probably a few, but it sounds to me as though he just listened to them on YouTube.
	Because it says he listened to 15 speeches.
	He didn't attend 15.
	There's a big difference.
	As you know, you've been to one of these rallies.
	Early on, before, yeah, in 2015.
	Yeah, and like, people who go there, it's like the Grateful Dead.
	They go to a lot of them.
	There's some people that have gone to every one of them.
	Because there's a vibe there that people really enjoy, and it's different than just listening, even though I've never been to one, but I've listened to quite a few of them, and you get a kind of a feeling for it, but you can see that being there would be better.
	My buddy Vic and his wife Chris came down from Dallas.
	They're here for our vow renewal right after the show.
	Oh, what, what, what?
	Yes, thank you everybody for the congratulations.
	Very, very kind.
	Yes, we're renewing our... It's our fifth wedding anniversary today.
	And we never had a fight.
	And so Chris's mom went to the Wildwood, New Jersey Trump rally.
	And just a couple things about Wildwood, New Jersey.
	It's not like an easy place you just go to Wildwood.
	It is way out there.
	So you're going to Wildwood.
	You're really determined to go to Wildwood.
	I mean, from anywhere, and excuse me, fellow Jerseyans, anywhere within civilization in Jersey, it's two, two and a half hours to get to Wildwood.
	You really want to go there.
	I thought I'd go across the whole state in two and a half hours.
	Jersey is huge.
	Are you kidding me?
	You should go take a look at it.
	New Jersey is not to be messed with.
	And they're from Jersey.
	They're from South Jersey originally.
	The whole state, it feels like, is like, no, we're not blue, we're just going back to red.
	No, no, no.
	And that 100,000 number, they think is even light.
	They think it was more than that.
	I mean, it's incredible, the size of these crowds.
	That's bigger than the first time around.
	Because when I went to the, I've been to one, that Trump rally in Arkansas, there was a lot of people.
	It wasn't, you know, it was small, actually, comparatively speaking, very small.
	But now, more than 100,000 people, that's crazy.
	It is crazy.
	That's really, really big.
	People are so sick of it.
	They are, but when will people start burning down television, news stations?
	I've never understood this.
	I mean, that's the main culprit.
	Why aren't they out there, out front?
	For a little bit we had that at CNN for like a day or two, remember that?
	Oh yeah, remember yeah, they busted the windows.
	Yeah, for a second there.
	Yeah, we covered that.
	I mean, you know, the NPR stations, how come people aren't just burning that down?
	I mean, I'm not calling for violence, please.
	Sounds like it.
	No, no, no, I'm not.
	Because before you know it, CBS will call me something horrible.
	There are nearly 80 officials working in election oversight positions across seven swing states who are considered election deniers by CBS News.
	That means they either don't believe in the 2020 results, refuse to certify that election, publicly supported the January 6th Capitol riots, or have pushed election conspiracies.
	I think we're in that camp.
	We're in the conspiracy camp.
	I'm afraid now.
	This should be your beat.
	This very short clip.
	But since I don't think you have it, I'll roll it out for you.
	This is Australia.
	I have to report that the Digital ID Transitional and Consequential Provisions Bill 2023 has been fully considered.
	There you go.
	Australia.
	chamber and has been agreed to without amendment i present a certified copy of the bill the question is that the bill be agreed to i'll put the question those minions say i against no i think the eyes have it those division required no division required this bill has been agreed to there you go australia digital id it's gonna be you're gonna need it's out of control
	you're gonna need it to get on the internet You're going to need it for everything.
	Everything!
	I feel so bad.
	Even if you're going to vote for Elmer Fudd for re-election.
	Elmer Fudd!
	People always want to know the face of Satan.
	You know, you're the Christian in the group here.
	The face of Satan is Elmer Fudd, the Australian Prime Minister.
	Is he the face of Satan?
	I think so.
	I've concluded this after listening to Naomi Wolf's long lecture about satanic rituals.
	Oh, I missed that one.
	Did you listen to that?
	It just came out.
	Is it a video?
	It appears to be a video, but it turns out to be an audio.
	So it's not on Rumble?
	No, it's on our own website, I think.
	No, it's a Substack audio.
	And what's the conclusion?
	Substack is where you go over your podcast now.
	Where did that happen?
	Well, they do produce RSS feeds that are private.
	So you can actually, if you subscribe to someone's Substack, they can then set it up so that you'll get your own individual RSS feed that you can subscribe to.
	Which is, that's valid.
	It's valid, yeah, it's cool.
	So what was the conclusion?
	What, that Elmer Fudd's the devil?
	No.
	What is Naomi Wolf's conclusion?
	Oh, I couldn't listen to the whole thing.
	She went on forever.
	I gave up.
	About 20 minutes in, it's like, oh, I can't take any more of this.
	This is the problem when you get professionals and you put them out there without editors, because they need that.
	They need that.
	Glenn Greenwald's another one.
	We've discussed it many times.
	And I mean, most sub-stacks?
	I'm a fan of Naomi Wolf.
	I can't read them, it's too long!
	It's too long!
	They don't know how to keep it short and sweet.
	I'm reminded of, you know, well... I'm reminded of, uh...
	Magazine writers I've worked with who, once they get to the internet and you don't have to deal with page restrictions.
	In other words, you can't really write too long because there's no room.
	Hey, cut it down.
	We only have room for 850 words here.
	They just go nuts.
	They can't stop writing.
	I have a feature.
	Here's a feature for Substack.
	Substack is just an idea.
	You should have a remix feature.
	Where anybody can go in and take a substack by someone you follow, subscribe to, whatever, and edit it, become a professional editor, and then republish that.
	I'm saying, here's my edited version as a professional editor.
	I'm not a writer, I'm not a writer, but I'm a good editor, and I've edited this down as a public service.
	Yeah, that's not a bad idea.
	I'm full of- Well, that's what we do with our clips.
	Yes.
	And we also edit each other, like, stop it!
	It's too long!
	I'm tired!
	I'm bored!
	I will say, for example, the good news clip.
	Yes.
	I cut out- I generally cut out 45 seconds to a minute of each one of these in such a way that it's fairly- it's better.
	Yes, of course.
	Shorter is better.
	Shorter is always better.
	I mean, most of our clips, I think we have an unwritten rule, over 1 minute 30 seconds, it better be really good.
	1 minute 30 seconds, that's really max length.
	Wouldn't you say?
	No.
	One minute?
	My max length is two minutes.
	Ah, see, I find that to be long.
	I try to be 130.
	I'm looking at my clip list here.
	All my clips today, the longest is 142.
	Yeah, well, that's good.
	142 is acceptable.
	Because we know, we know, we gotta keep it snappy.
	I got a lot of 1's, 15's, I got 50 seconds, and here's a 50 second clip right here ready to go.
	This is my Gaza report with Jake Sullivan to the rescue.
	National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is visiting Saudi Arabia and Israel this weekend to discuss the war in Gaza.
	And Pierce Daniel Estrin has more from Tel Aviv.
	Sullivan is meeting Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and then meeting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel.
	The U.S.
	has been trying to advance a deal with Saudi Arabia to open formal relations with Israel.
	That has been complicated by Israel's unwillingness to end the offensive in Gaza and its opposition to an independent Palestinian state.
	The U.S.
	has also been discussing a defense treaty with Saudi Arabia.
	Sullivan will also discuss Israel's plans in Rafah, in southern Gaza.
	Israeli troops entered eastern Rafah this month, causing more than half a million Palestinians to flee.
	The U.S.
	is opposed to Israel expanding the Rafah offensive because it would uproot even more Palestinians.
	I'd like the Rafah.
	Rafah.
	Rafah.
	I have a couple of clips.
	So Jake Sullivan is the President of the United States?
	Well yes, of course.
	He's a fine looking man.
	He has the presidential stature that Jake Sullivan.
	He couldn't be more of a creep.
	So it's not going very well.
	Three more hostages turned up dead.
	And this is kind of a weird report because it has three dead hostages, pictures posted everywhere.
	where the peer is done and Biden is is pandering to the blacks.
	NSC's John Kirby joined the White House briefing to discuss the latest in the war in Gaza with news Israel recovered the bodies of three hostages killed by Hamas.
	This is horrible news and our hearts go out to the families.
	Kirby also gave an update to the humanitarian aid making its way into the war zone from the newly completed floating pier built by U.S.
	troops.
	Here you can see trucks just today.
	Today alone, he says, 300 pallets were carried across.
	Trucks filled with food, water, hygiene kits, medical supplies, and even plastic sheeting for shelters.
	Today was just a start.
	It was the first day.
	There's still work that has to be done to reach what we call initial operating capability, but we hope to be able to increase the number of pallets that get in over the coming days.
	He comes as the Commander-in-Chief.
	I'm a lifetime member of the NAACP.
	Delivered remarks to the National Museum of African American History and Culture Friday.
	I love how they do this.
	Dead hostages, everything's a mess, and I'm a member of the NAACP!
	Black history is American history.
	His speech comes as polls show black voters increasingly frustrated by what they regard as inaction on their top priorities.
	Many say they're turned off by the Biden administration's handling of the economy in the Israel-Hamas war, with his visit marking the 70th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education's Supreme Court case.
	Seventy years ago when the Supreme Court ruled in Brown v. Board of Education that racial segregation in public schools is unconstitutional.
	I was there!
	I was there for a freshman!
	A long struggle for freedom.
	Now Biden will deliver the commencement speech at Morehouse College this weekend and then give remarks at an NAACP dinner in Detroit.
	So that was weird that they packaged that up, but okay.
	But the real news coming today out of Israel is the government is splitting apart.
	Got a problem.
	Bibi's got issues.
	That is a sign that if by June the 8th there isn't a change in Israeli policy, a change in the way this war is run, particularly a commitment to make a bigger effort to release the hostages, a plan for the day after in Gaza and that day after to include normalisation of relations with Saudi Arabia down the road, if all of that doesn't happen then I think this is the beginning of the end of the cooperation between the two.
	Benny Gantz and his party came into the government almost as soon as the war began because they could see there was not enough military experience in that cabinet.
	And they bolstered Netanyahu.
	But what he says now, what Benny Gantz says now is decisions are not being made for defense reasons.
	They're being made for personal reasons or political reasons, being prioritized over national reasons.
	So he explained all that to the Israeli public, then he looked into the camera and said, I'm looking straight at you, Benjamin Netanyahu.
	We worked together for many, many years.
	You were always a patriot.
	Are you still a patriot?
	You know what decisions have to be made.
	You're not making them.
	It's crunch time.
	Will you make the right decision?
	And just as I was coming on air, so some five or six minutes ago, we heard a quick response, a glib response, if you like, from Netanyahu, but the answer seems to be no.
	He says this is just a euphemism for the end of the war and the defeat of the State of Israel and the failure to return any hostages.
	So all of that a very dramatic day in Israeli politics and perhaps Netanyahu's answer will mean that Benny Gantz and his party will leave this government more quickly.
	I have a similar clip.
	This is the Israel update.
	Hold on a second.
	From PBS, Elitist Voices.
	Tonight, there is turmoil within Israel's government.
	Benny Gantz, a centrist in Benjamin Netanyahu's war cabinet, is threatening to quit if the government does not adopt a new plan for the war in Gaza by June 8th.
	It comes as a ceasefire deal remains elusive, and no new hostages have been released since November.
	And earlier today, Israeli airstrikes fell in northern Gaza, toppling buildings in Jabalia, the largest of Gaza's refugee camps, killing 15 and wounding dozens more.
	Meanwhile, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is in Saudi Arabia tonight to discuss the war with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
	He travels to Israel tomorrow.
	Now, do you think MBS can do something?
	No, I don't know what the deal is here.
	This doesn't make any sense to me.
	What I've heard from my insiders on the field is that all these nations around the region, including Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, they're sick of this nonsense.
	They also don't want the Palestinians, but they're sick of it.
	Everybody wants a two-state solution, except Israel.
	Everybody wants this.
	And they want to stick Israel with the problem.
	Yes, and Israel, if they keep going, they will not be our biggest ally.
	I think that's going to end.
	Of course, we know that's not possible because the Zionists control our government, apparently.
	And the media, somehow.
	I have to say, they do a crappy job of it.
	They really do.
	The media's against them.
	How does that work?
	Meanwhile, the protests have spread to Amsterdam, and what you will not see, because we only have the audio, Is the students of the UVA, the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Free University of Amsterdam, have blockaded the canal.
	I mean, with huge piles of bricks and furniture and all kinds of stuff.
	When you blockade the canal, That's a real problem in Amsterdam.
	It screws up traffic, it screws up deliveries.
	Yes, it's a canal that's actually used.
	Yes, and these canal streets are very narrow.
	I live there, so I know that, you know, this is a big, particularly the area where the university is, which is, surprise, an elitist neighborhood.
	So, the kids were very surprised when they got beaten.
	A standoff in the heart of Amsterdam.
	This was on the 9th of May, a few days after students at the University of Amsterdam had started their pro-Palestine encampment.
	When police moved in to end the protest, things got ugly.
	Well, it might be hard to imagine the violent confrontations that took place right here between police and pro-Palestine demonstrators.
	But the scenes certainly shocked people here in the Netherlands and abroad.
	And they've led some students and academic staff at the University of Amsterdam to accuse the police of heavy-handed tactics.
	On Monday, the protesters tried again.
	This time it was a coordinated walkout by students and staff at several Dutch universities.
	The demands, like at demonstrations in other countries, included cutting ties with Israeli academic institutions linked to the army.
	But the University of Amsterdam was also criticized for not consulting with protesters before calling in the police.
	Oh no!
	If the university board would like to demonstrate that they want to regain the confidence of its staff and students, then they should start by cutting ties and establishing shared governance.
	We, as staff, we say we need our institutions to step up, stop doing harm, and stop being complicit.
	And the second reason is because of the right to protest.
	It's a basic democratic liberal right, and it was a peaceful encampment, and it was beaten down by police, and as staff we cannot accept that.
	Now what you notice, as this is a native English speaker, because in Amsterdam there are no Dutch people left.
	All that's there are expats who can now afford the prices of the extremely inflated housing prices, and subsidized immigrants who have come in, and I would say it was about 60-40 brown face versus white face.
	I'm not being racist, just saying what I see.
	And this is, of course, the problem that the Netherlands has been dealing with for two decades, if not longer.
	And the Netherlands has never been an immigration country.
	They never wanted it.
	And the Dutch are fed up.
	They had an election.
	They voted overwhelmingly for Geert Wilders.
	They just want it to stop.
	They want the immigration to stop.
	The election was in November, I believe.
	And finally, finally, they have figured out a coalition.
	And guess what?
	Something's gonna change!
	A photo op six months in the making.
	A government coalition for the Netherlands, led by the far-right leader Geert Wilders, who promised to stay true to his party's hard line on immigration, and to opt out of the EU's new asylum system, even if it took years to do.
	So, we first use the Dutch law and the crisis law we have, To make sure that there will be less influx of asylum seekers in the Netherlands.
	And that is something that we don't need the European Union for.
	That is totally compatible with European law.
	Bielder said the Netherlands planned to follow in the footsteps of Denmark, which negotiated a deal to be excluded from the EU's asylum policies.
	But an EU spokesperson appeared to pour cold water on that idea, but added he would wait to hear exactly what the Dutch government had in mind.
	You cannot opt out of EU legislation in the past when certain discussions were taking place on treaties.
	Certain countries, in the context of those discussions, negotiated opt-outs.
	But we are working on the basis of existing treaties.
	The EU's pact on migration and asylum includes tougher borders and shared responsibility among the bloc's members to take in asylum seekers.
	The new rules come into effect in 2026 and the deal's passage comes ahead of Europe-wide elections next month.
	Well, that's good stuff.
	is playing a major role.
	Meanwhile, as Dutch politicians outline the government's new policies, it still remains to be seen hoering from national politics and is expected to be tapped as the new NATO Secretary General.
	Wilders himself has shelved his ambitions to be PM amid widespread unease over his anti-Islam and anti-European...
	Well, that's good stuff.
	Yeah?
	Yeah, good stuff.
	Yeah, you learned something listening to this show.
	Good stuff.
	Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what happens, how that all goes down.
	Well, they didn't kill the Slovakia guy, so that's one back on track.
	They certainly tried.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, because the far right, man, far right, far right.
	Yeah, the far right, but it's all the other guys doing the shooting.
	Always.
	It's always the nut job, you know, Nature person, you know, like tree huggers.
	Yeah, they spin them all up and then give them a gun.
	It's bad.
	Shoot that guy!
	Meanwhile, speaking of asylum, which is a global issue, and of course most of this is, you know, climate refugees, because guess what?
	It's hot in Africa.
	Oh, who would have thought?
	The Biden administration is trying to win some votes.
	The White House is expected to announce major changes this week to federal immigration policy.
	The Associated Press is reporting the Biden administration wants to speed up the asylum process for certain immigrants.
	Denver 7 reporter and attorney Jessica Crawford explains how it would work and what this means for new arrivals to the southern border.
	It can often take years to get through the asylum process, and in the meantime, applicants are generally busy building their lives here in the United States.
	But the new proposed changes would move new arrivals to the front of the line for asylum decisions.
	That means the government could deport people whose claims are denied within months instead of years.
	The goal of these changes is to process those asylum claims within six months instead of several years.
	The new rules would apply to people who cross between ports of entry and turn themselves in to immigration authorities.
	The Biden administration is taking increasingly restrictive measures to dissuade people from coming to the U.S.-Mexico border.
	This comes amid a backlog of immigration cases.
	There are about 3 million cases in the nation's immigration courts.
	The average caseload for a judge is 5,000.
	I spoke with Raquel Lane-Arellano of the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition about the possible impact.
	Far too many people who are seeking asylum do not have attorneys, and so increasing the rate that people are processed will mean that most people will lose their case, even if they have a strong case.
	Denver has served more than 41,000 new immigrants so far.
	Wow.
	Notice the term new arrivals.
	New arrivals, new immigrants.
	They won't say what they are.
	No.
	A clip from the last show you should look up, because this is just a factoid that we should push on the show.
	This is a Chip Roy clip.
	Look for Chip Roy.
	Chip Roy on the number of illegals.
	I just have a few questions.
	Stop.
	This is in Congress, so this is an official hearing, so this is a real number.
	This is not a little show, a little play that they do for C-SPAN for clips?
	This is real?
	This is the real deal?
	Well, that may be true.
	I just have a few questions.
	I'd just like to ask each of the panelists, how many people do you think are in the United States right now illegally?
	Mr. Roy, it's impossible to say, but I can tell you that for a good 20-year period from the early 2000s until about two years ago... Can I just guess?
	I have not heard this clip, of course.
	So from the early 2000s to now, 24 years, I'm going to say 47 million.
	That's a high number.
	It's close.
	Until about two years ago, the number that was often quoted by media types was 11 million.
	They now, the numbers that I hear now are consistently between 20 and 40 million illegally in the country.
	Yeah, I'm sure 47 is probably more realistic.
	But they're new arrivals.
	Newcomers.
	And you know what's really good?
	Particularly these new arrivals that come through the south.
	Newcomers!
	We're so xenophobic!
	These newcomers that come enter the southern border, they often have to swim across the Rio Grande.
	Well, basically they get dropped off on the other side and it's like, OK, because they all have clean clothes, you know, everything's good to go.
	But you got it for the show, please swim across the Rio Grande before you enter the Americas.
	And the New York City mayor has some thoughts about this.
	That states those jobs that we are in high demand, we could expedite.
	How do we have a large body of people that are in our city and country that are excellent swimmers and at the same time we need lifeguards?
	The excellent swimmers, John!
	You mean we need lifeguards?
	Is that what he said?
	Yes!
	And at the same time we need lifeguards.
	And the only obstacle is that we won't give them the right to work to become a lifeguard.
	Because they're excellent swimmers.
	We know it.
	They swam across the Rio Grande.
	I mean, come on, make them lifeguards.
	I mean, that's urgent.
	That just doesn't make sense.
	But if we had a plan that say, you have a shortage of food service workers, and those who fit the criteria, we're going to expedite you.
	You know how to cook, right?
	I mean, you're good.
	We love that cuisine y'all are bringing here, newcomers.
	If you have the experience that you are a nurse, which we have a nurse shortage, and we will expedite you.
	And it's the same with lifeguards.
	So we have all these eligible people waiting to work.
	How many lifeguards do they employ?
	There's some lifeguard shortage.
	I mean, this is bullcrap, by the way.
	You get Clip of the Day for the lifeguard clip.
	Oh, well, that's... Sometimes these things come so unexpected, but okay, I'll take it.
	I didn't figure that one.
	Thank you.
	Lifeguards.
	I actually had that clip from the last show.
	I mean, it didn't make the cut.
	You never know, it's a sleeper.
	It didn't even make the cut.
	Meanwhile, another Mo prophecy comes true.
	You know, Mo has had a number of them.
	I think this is one of my favorites.
	He has said, you know, the future of law enforcement is rich people will have private security in your gated communities.
	Everything will be safe.
	It'll be private.
	A lot of cops leaving the force, going private, make three times as much money.
	For the poor neighborhoods, you get drones.
	What a dazzling view of Central Park.
	A rare and glorious sight from 200 feet high.
	The plush treetops to the skyline, all captured by an NYPD drone.
	I would love to see this drone control areas that the cops cannot get to.
	That they have to use maybe a scooter or a bicycle.
	Uh-huh.
	CNYPD expanding its fleet of 85 drones, now implementing a new initiative called Drones as First Responders.
	I'm going to put this drone station on top of this precinct behind me.
	Integrated into the 911 call system, the drones will be piloted remotely from one police plaza in the presence of a departmental attorney as a safeguard against improper surveillance.
	The first units being installed at three precincts in Brooklyn, one in the Bronx, and at the Central Park precinct.
	Person shot, person stabbed, person robbed.
	Crimes in progress are real serious crimes.
	We're going to dispatch the drones autonomously and it's going to fly to wherever the call may be.
	The drones can get to places officers can't because they have infrared cameras and they can do so within seconds as opposed to an officer on foot or in a car.
	The great New York City Police Department, who's represented well here today, has used drones to assist with search and rescue efforts.
	NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry testifying before Congress Thursday about the department's use of emerging technology.
	It's drones, most recently used to inspect for earthquake damage.
	This is the New York City Police Department.
	And for crowd control.
	We're leveraging this technology.
	We want to use this technology to keep New Yorkers safe.
	We want to introduce this technology into our crime-fighting apparatus.
	And this technology is a game-changer.
	No, it's a game-changer.
	Yeah, this is the future.
	I like the idea of the drone that has, like, a hand holding, like, a .45.
	Just the one gun.
	And every time it shoots, it goes back about five feet, and then it comes back.
	Citizens!
	Citizens!
	Stand still, citizens!
	Citizens!
	Put down that apple, citizens!
	You're eating illegal fruit, citizens!
	Stop it!
	No, I think that this is a time for kids to consider, reconsider something that used to be popular, like, I guess, I don't know, even in the 50s.
	Slingshots!
	They're a great product!
	Yeah, hey, hey, hey!
	Slingshots and a ball bearing!
	John, exit strategy!
	No agenda.
	Take down a drone with a slingshot.
	It's very doable.
	No agenda.
	Very doable.
	No agenda slingshots.
	The leather patch has no agenda on it.
	And then on the other side it says, hit him in the mouth.
	Come on.
	You're right.
	No agenda slingshots.
	Ball bearings sold separately.
	The wrist rocket, that's it.
	Trolldar, the wrist rocket.
	I had a wrist rocket.
	No, that was after my time.
	Oh, because it had the bar that would rest on your wrist?
	Yeah, I know what they are.
	Yeah, they're good.
	Good product.
	Outstanding product.
	Yes.
	Okay, kids.
	Take it from Uncle John.
	Get a slingshot.
	Hit that drone.
	Get a slingshot.
	That's right.
	See how that works out for you.
	Perfect.
	I bought a slingshot.
	I always used to have a slingshot because we have these things that fall off of trees that are kind of like a big seed, and I like to shoot them into the air.
	And so I've always had a slingshot, and they've got new kinds of rubbers that they use to pull the different kind of...
	It's like tourniquet rubber.
	The thing broke.
	They always break.
	I ordered a new slingshot from Amazon.
	How long ago was this?
	Probably a year and a half ago, two years, maybe five.
	Whatever the case is, these newer slingshots are so powerful.
	It's unbelievable.
	I mean, I would say I like your idea.
	It's a low-tech idea, but I like it.
	But why don't kids just get the suicide drones?
	Just crash into these drones.
	I mean, now it costs money.
	Slingshots cheap.
	You're talking about, you know, the poverty stricken area.
	They're going to waste money on a drone.
	And, and this cheap and ball bearings are cheaper.
	And you can also throw it, put a walnut in there.
	You can throw all kinds of, you can shoot anything.
	It's just a bit practical.
	It's practical.
	It's kids.
	It's practical and it's fun.
	It is fun.
	Ball bearings sold separately.
	Ball bearings sold separately.
	We can't be, we can't sell the slingshots with the ball bearings.
	No, the ball bearings are not, that's kind of pricey.
	Especially good, you know, the bigger ball bearings that you want.
	Which could bring back another fan favorite, marbles!
	Marbles would be nice to shoot a marble at.
	Marbles!
	Marbles!
	Yeah, whatever happens to marbles.
	Do kids still play marbles?
	Not that I know of.
	I think it's, no, they play games on the computer.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Get some marbles and a slingshot, kids.
	Ask your housekeeper.
	So I have one clip here on the debate between Trump and Biden that we can play and it brings us up to speed.
	Okay, debate.
	This is, what is it, NPR?
	Yeah, the Redux.
	Redux!
	And almost suddenly this week, Biden and Trump campaigns agreed to debate.
	First one, June, CNN.
	The second, maybe final one, ABC.
	Full two months before election day.
	What do you think led to this?
	It started with Trump saying he would debate Biden anytime, anywhere.
	Then Biden said, OK, how about CNN in June?
	And within a couple of hours, the Trump campaign had agreed.
	So the gauntlet was tossed and accepted.
	And just like that, the two major party nominees have thrown over the rubric of the bipartisan Presidential Debate Commission, which has been producing these events for decades.
	Now, the tradition of these debates has aged rather poorly, perhaps in recent years.
	No one was happy with the Biden-Trump addition in 2020.
	This guy's mouth is clicking.
	Do you hear that?
	It's very disturbing to me.
	Now what is it?
	What did you say?
	His mouth is clicking.
	When he talks.
	Oh, that's interesting.
	I didn't notice that, but I'm going to start listening now.
	Thanks.
	He's a lizard.
	have thrown over the rubric of the bipartisan presidential debate commission, which has been producing these events for decades.
	Now, the tradition of these debates has aged rather poorly.
	He's a lizard.
	He's a lizard.
	Click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, of the bipartisan presidential debate commission, which has been producing these events for decades.
	Now, the tradition of these debates has aged rather poorly, perhaps, in recent years.
	No one was happy with the Biden-Trump edition in 2020.
	So this time, the Biden people wanted the debates to be sooner.
	They wanted a studio debate without a live audience.
	And they wanted microphones that could be shut off.
	If a candidate exceeds his time or tries to talk over the other candidate.
	And Trump, or at least his campaign, wanted a debate badly enough to agree to all that.
	Will they find any room for third-party candidates?
	Now, there could be, but the threshold to get there is 15% in four national polls, plus getting on enough state ballots to get a candidate up to 270 electoral votes, potentially, which would be a majority.
	Hard to say which hurdle is highest, but just now Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
	says he will clear them both, so we shall see.
	Yeah, unlikely.
	Unlikely.
	By the way, that mouth clicking is a non-starter.
	You're off the air, dude.
	I've never, I never noticed it before.
	I'm glad you spotted it so that I can hate that guy.
	Hate that guy for real.
	So Bitcoin Bobby says he wants to get in.
	Well, it's going to be tough.
	I mean, the 15%, I don't know if he can get in.
	They don't want him in.
	No, of course they don't want him in.
	But what is this microphone turning off the mic business?
	That's, that's just lame.
	Well, they'll turn it off Trump, but they won't do it for Biden.
	You can count on that.
	And no mention of the drug test.
	No, it's Trump's.
	There won't be a drug test, we can be assured.
	But he might get accused of being jacked up on something.
	He has to be jacked up.
	They'll have to make a statement and say, no, we're not doing a drug test.
	And then Trump has another three hours of material.
	Yes, he does.
	This genius.
	I love that.
	It's so smart.
	Yeah.
	It's easy, but smart.
	Well, let's get an update on the Russian law.
	The Russian law.
	The Russian law, which... Oh, this Russian law thing is quite interesting.
	It's like what... There was nothing... I know what you're going to talk... You know, this is about the law that says you can't have... In Georgia.
	Yeah.
	And I see no... I don't see any reason to object to this.
	If you're having a... Thank you!
	Thank you!
	What is the big problem with this?
	I don't get the problem either.
	And here's what... We'll play the clip and then we can talk about it.
	The President of the former Soviet Republic of Georgia, Salome Zorabishvili, has vetoed a foreign influence law which has sparked unprecedented protests and warnings from the EU that the measure could undermine the country's attempt To join the bloc.
	But the veto, mostly symbolic as a ruling Georgia Dream Party has enough lawmakers in parliament to override it.
	Under the law, NGOs and media outlets that received more than 20% of their funding from abroad would have to register as bodies pursuing the interests of a foreign power.
	Critics say it resembles Russian legislation used to silence dissent.
	Here's what Georgia's president had to say.
	This law in its essence, in its spirit, is a Russian law which contradicts our constitution and all European standards and thus represents an obstacle on the European path.
	The law is not subject to any change or improvement.
	It's very simple.
	This law must be abolished.
	Now forgive me if I'm wrong.
	Or correct me if I'm wrong, isn't FARA exactly the same law that you have to register as a foreign agent if you're lobbying and whether you're a non-profit or not?
	Doesn't every country have some version of this?
	Is this so crazy?
	Every country has some version of it, but this one is specific to any organization or person or NGO that has over 20% financing from a foreign country.
	If we had, for example, and we have examples here where China is all of a sudden, you know, they run the Confucius Institute in a lot of universities and we make a big fuss about it.
	How is that different?
	Exactly.
	We make a big fuss when China runs a bunch of operations in this country, or Russia for example, they post on Facebook and everybody goes nuts.
	Yeah, we had people... So how is that different?
	We've had people under investigation because they were lobbying but they were paid by foreign... Right now we have a Democrat in a Department of Justice case because he took money from Tajikistan or something.
	Yes, Melendez.
	Menendez.
	The Menendez brothers who killed their parents.
	Yes, those guys.
	Yes, and it's one of those countries, but it's the same thing.
	I don't get why they're making such a fuss.
	Because they want to create a crisis.
	They want a crisis.
	They want a crisis in Parliament so then they can bring in the American Stooges or the European Stooges for that matter.
	I don't know if we're involved in this one.
	This seems to be an EU operation.
	Maybe they can hire Newland.
	Maybe noodling needs work, that could be.
	You might have just figured it out right there.
	You know what?
	Yeah.
	By the way, I take it back, that mouth clicking?
	That's not a lizard, that's a bug.
	Like in, remember Men in Black?
	Those people were bugs?
	Yeah, exactly.
	Exactly.
	Uh, let's listen to the, here's some interesting clips.
	I just, I just recorded these.
	You don't mind saying so yourself?
	Yes, because it's like, it's like a two, it's like goes in two directions at the same time.
	Again, from NPR.
	These are dubious flyers in Mexico.
	April 15th started off as a typical day for Gabriela Zavala.
	She was juggling the demands of her busy family life in Texas with running Resource Center Matamoros, a small NGO that helps asylum seekers in Mexico on the other side of the border from Brownsville.
	But by evening, her world had been turned upside down.
	NPR's Jude Joffe Block takes the story from here.
	Zavala soon learned she and her NGO, RCM, featured prominently in a social media thread posted by an arm of the Conservative Heritage Foundation called the Oversight Project.
	It showed Spanish language flyers with RCM's logo and that of President Biden's campaign.
	A video in the thread showed the flyers hanging in porta potties at a migrant encampment in Matamoros.
	The flyers said in grammatically incorrect Spanish, reminder to vote for President Biden when you're in the United States.
	We need another four years of his term to stay open.
	And they were signed with her name.
	Yeah, this has been kind of a bubbling under story for quite a while.
	I'm glad you got this.
	Yes, in Texas.
	And what's interesting to me about the story is that it's a flyer that goes around saying, go vote for Biden.
	And this woman's name is attached to it, even though she says, we got nothing to do with this.
	Well, somebody has something to do with it.
	Was it done on purpose just to make it look like illegals are going to vote for Biden?
	I mean, the whole story is fishy.
	We have a guy down at the border.
	He's been there consistently.
	He's been sending me pictures and videos.
	And he sent me this weeks ago.
	And then he said, you know, I think this is bogus.
	So even he thinks it's bogus and he's down there, you know, trying to, trying to sort stuff out.
	So it is very dubious.
	But it is a flyer and it does say vote for Biden.
	I was almost in a state of shock.
	I said, wow, you know, this is completely untrue.
	Zavala says she didn't write the flyer telling migrants to vote illegally, nor did she have any connection with it.
	I was like, why would somebody want to do this?
	You know, why would somebody want to intentionally create a fake flyer?
	The flyer was riddled with Spanish language errors.
	It included an outdated description of RCM from its website that hasn't been updated in years.
	That part of the flyer's text appears to have been run through Google Translate.
	The flyer also lists a very old phone number, which also appears on the outdated website.
	Zavala says she does not support the flyer's message.
	I would never sit there and tell somebody that can't vote, that I know can't vote, hey, go vote!
	The threat about the flyers spread quickly and racked up more than 9 million views on the social media platform Axe.
	The executive director of the Oversight Project, Mike Howell, says the threat did not accuse Zavala of authoring the flyer.
	He also told the New York Times he condemns death threats.
	The flyer is very real.
	It's telling illegal aliens to vote for Joe Biden.
	The morning after Heritage posted the thread, multiple Republican members of Congress asked Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas about the flyer.
	They were grilling him about the record high number of people who have come to the U.S.-Mexico border.
	The flyer has also buttressed a false narrative that undocumented immigrants are swaying American elections.
	It's already illegal for non-citizens to vote in federal elections.
	and studies have repeatedly shown it is very rare.
	Former President Donald Trump and his allies insist this campaign season that it is an issue.
	Well, I think it is an issue.
	Yes.
	And it's very rare says who.
	If you do it right, you would know.
	Hey, RGV Truth on X. RGV Truth on X. That's our guy.
	He's all over this.
	Let's go to clip three.
	For example, here is House Speaker Mike Johnson last week.
	We all know, intuitively, that a lot of illegals are voting in federal elections, but it's not been something that is easily provable.
	We don't have that number.
	To date, it is still unknown who created the flyers that bears Zavala's name and who posted them in the porta-potties.
	The social media thread credited Muckraker, a right-wing website, with discovering it.
	Muckraker is headed by Anthony Rubin, who often uses undercover tactics in his videos.
	Rubin told NPR that the video of the flyers was shot by an anonymous source with a close connection to his team.
	Yeah, RGV Truth, our guy.
	Ruben has traveled across Latin America to film migrants in transit to the U.S., which he portrays as an invasion.
	In his videos, he often asked migrants about the upcoming election.
	On April 15th, in the hours before the thread about the flyers appeared online, Rubin and his brother rang the bell at resource center Matamoros, saying they wanted to volunteer.
	Ruben confirmed that in an interview with NPR.
	You know, I've rode the train of death, been smuggled into Mexico by the Sinaloa cartel, I got kidnapped by the Gulf cartel.
	The point is, I know the ins and outs of this thing.
	I've studied these NGOs that hand out all the maps.
	So yeah, of course, we were inquiring whether or not it would be possible to volunteer.
	Zavala's staff believed Rubin wanted to volunteer.
	They called Zavala, who spoke with him by phone.
	In all honesty, we're just trying to help as many people as possible before Trump gets re-elected.
	That clip from their phone call wound up as part of the thread about the flyers.
	No wonder people don't listen to NPR anymore.
	What is this nonsense?
	Well, they had to re-release the phone call where the woman was like, she says one thing to NPR and then she's kind of happy about these flyers.
	I don't know.
	Let's wrap it up with this.
	With a caption saying Zavala had implied that she, quote, wants to help as many illegals as possible before President Trump is re-elected.
	RCM's director, Hugo Terrones, who spoke to Rubin directly, told NPR that Rubin asked him strange questions.
	I didn't even know what he was talking about, and he asked me... Biden or Trump?
	Rubin told NPR that he did not recall what he asked to Rones.
	Zavala said it bothers her that no one who was publicizing the flyer on social media or in Congress had verified the flyer with her first.
	They never cared to call me and find out whether it was true or not.
	Mike Howell of the Oversight Project acknowledged to NPR that he did not reach out to Zavala before posting the thread.
	It was in the immediate public interest to know about the invasion in the United States.
	The Daily Signal, which the Heritage Foundation calls its news outlet, noted in its second story about the flyers, published a day after the thread posted, that it had requested comment and Zavala had not responded.
	NPR asked Anthony Rubin whether it had occurred to him to ask RCM staff when he visited, before the thread was published, whether the organization had any relationship to the flyer.
	It certainly occurred to me.
	Yeah, it sounded as if that thought did not pass through my head.
	He told NPR he didn't ask because he'd been previously kidnapped by the Gulf cartel nearby and had been told to never return.
	How about this?
	We need new flyers.
	New flyers.
	And the flyer reads... LIFEGUARD WANTED!
	Yeah.
	New York.
	I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda.

	The heart-stopping crash that left a semi-truck driver dangling over the Ohio River for almost an hour.
	The driver is sharing her harrowing story for the first time exclusively with our affiliate WHAS.
	Alex Perez has the details.
	Stunning images, Alex.
	Good morning.
	Hey, good morning, Rebecca.
	That semi-truck driver says it all happened in an instant, and she was convinced she would never make it out alive.
	It happened so fast.
	This morning, for the first time, we're hearing from Sydney Thomas.
	She was in the driver's seat of that semi-truck that dangled precariously over the Ohio River in Louisville, her first time back at the bridge.
	Thomas is speaking exclusively to our affiliate WHAS.
	I was like, I can't believe this, that I'm really hanging over the river.
	It all began when the driver of this pickup, 33-year-old Trevor Branham, swerved to avoid a stalled car, slamming into her semi.
	She crashed through the railing, 100 feet above the water, staring right at the river.
	Stuck there for more than 40 terrifying minutes, wondering what would happen to her 5-year-old son if the worst should happen.
	It was really hard for me to think about, like, leaving him behind on Earth.
	An army of firefighters on the bridge working to rescue her.
	It was just terrifying to be that high up in the air and look down and all you see is the Ohio River.
	Finally, firefighter Bryce Camden reaches her and prepares to get her to safety.
	He was like, are you a praying woman?
	And I was like, yep.
	And we just started praying.
	Those prayers while dangling in the air, a moment Thomas says she'll never forget.
	Sometimes you pray and I'm guilty of this.
	Sometimes I pray and I don't think God is listening.
	But he was that day.
	And the driver of that pickup was charged with wanted endangerment and driving on a suspended license.
	As for Thomas, she says she's getting ready to go back to work and get back on the road June 1st.
	Guys?
	Alright, we're happy she's okay Alex.
	Thank you so much for that.
	Wow!
	Prayer works, people!
	They never mentioned the driver in the car that knocked her off the road was a newcomer.
	No!
	No!
	They should have mentioned that.
	Be friendly to your newcomers.
	It's the American way, everybody.
	The new American way.
	Hey, coming up we've got some nice end of show mixes.
	Professor Jay Jones checks in once again from China.
	Dee's Laughs.
	And Leo Lapuque with another classic, the clip that everybody played on all the other shows.
	We just have that at the end, in a fun end of show mix, with a couple of congress critters arguing with each other.
	That's not what we do here at the Best Podcast in the Universe.
	Talk about a distraction.
	Up next, ooh groovy, Nick the Rat.
	Nick the Rat with the canspiracy, so look out for that.
	Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, here in Fredericksburg, Texas.
	Happy Anniversary, Tina.
	I love you.
	I look forward to renewing our vows.
	In the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from Northern Silicon Valley, I'm John C. DeVore.
	Remember us at noagendadonations.com.
	Until Thursday, adios, mofos, a-hooey-hooey, and such.
	No dude over 40's gonna rock and roll all night and party every day.
	I was rockin' and rollin' all night and partyin' every single day when I was 40.
	I remember you when you were 40.
	You were pullin' apart the computers on the TV.
	Bullcrap.
	Or does he think the milk comes out of the anus?
	You never get any sleep.
	I'm listenin' to you and Daryl singin' along to that song at Nimrod's in Silicon Valley.
	Why are they banning it and making a big fuss?
	They've got nothing.
	Zero.
	Nothing.
	Evidence.
	So AI is great.
	on this mission to find raw milk i'm going short ai and long on people raw milk think of it as raw Aaaaaah!
	Google IO event?
	Think of it as raw sewage.
	It's almost like eggnog.
	Toolkits for AI.
	Generative AI.
	Can people get bird food from drinking raw milk?
	Anything that you heard of that you thought might be useful in your life?
	Food freedom was boosted by COVID when disgust of the government and government scientists really grew.
	All BS.
	I don't think people should drink it.
	No one has gotten sick from the raw milk.
	AI can reason.
	Don't think people should drink it.
	Or does she think the milk comes out of the anus?
	Their open AI is a creepy, over-sexualized spokesmodel.
	Open the door to the fridge, grab the milk, left cash in a drop box.
	Are you going to send me a dick pic?
	Federal health officials are urging people to be cautious and not drink raw milk.
	Because AI is reasoning.
	You see, it's reasoning.
	And all it is, is don't drink raw milk.
	It's not rigged, this demo.
	You will like raw milk.
	Tell me what I'm not seeing!
	The White Man's Drake versus Kendrick Lamar.
	What did you think of the Apple...
	What did you think of the Apple ad, the crush Apple ad for the new iPad?
	Yo, 6God, more like the 6Fraud, dropping this new album saying, this one's for all my dogs.
	October 6th, released at 6 o'clock in the city of the 6.
	416-647-289, city's mine.
	To listen to that new album, I'd have to be drunk off a fifth, there goes a shine.
	I don't understand why would anyone pay their heart and money just to watch me get drunk and talk shit but thank me later, yo it's funny.
	Like Caleb Williams, you painted your fingernails, palming baby's head with those virtue signaling nails, hoping that it sells.
	Got barred up like prison, like buried in a coffin.
	That's from all those K-Dot hammering nails.
	Not feeling euphoric these days, oh now do tell.
	Devil music imagery, that outlet really sells.
	Six colored hair ties, the man I'm watching despise.
	Sell a soul to the industry you never had.
	We're not surprised.
	Here's a dedication to the number six.
	Larry Johnson, school you on that numerology.
	So quick we'll see you talk about these girls as one of the guys.
	Wishing that you were bi.
	Rewind that line, not gonna lie.
	But going after these youngins is slime.
	I guess that Alphabet Mafia has gotten to your crow.
	They runnin' your city, block chest puffed out, losing your grip, oh they?
	Many rappers are called, few are chosen.
	Bandwagon fan code switching gamers mid.
	Similar to the Rosen.
	Trophies didn't show up till you left.
	That catalog's been overplayed to death like Frozen.
	Let's see what you have left.
	Wishing that Adonis and you have a strong bond.
	A good father's better than giving the people of Toronto.
	You're such a long con.
	So long, Yukon.
	Ladies and gentlemen, in this special nighttime episode, we resume the Madcap Comedy Mystery Series, an avowedly low-budget, but multi-million dollar, taxpayer-funded production by... You mean like the January 6th committee?
	Order, order.
	Marjorie Taylor Greene got the ball rolling, and it got pretty crazy pretty fast.
	Any of the Democrats on this committee are employing Judge Merchand's daughter?
	Order, Mr. Chairman!
	Get her under control!
	Do you know what we're here for?
	I think your fake eyelashes are messing up the show.
	How dare you attack the physical appearance of another person?
	Are your feelings hurt?
	Oh, oh, girl.
	Baby girl.
	You don't have enough intelligence.
	Order!
	Somebody's bleached blonde, bad-built, butch body.
	Uh, uh, what now?
	I have no idea what you just said.
	Calm down.
	No!
	Don't tell me to calm down!
	I hope you brought your popcorn.
	That's beneath even order!
	Order!
	Don't even play.
	Baby, I'm not apologizing.
	I am not apologizing.
	Mr. Chairman, this is out of control.
	We should adjourn, Mr. Chairman.
