	It just showed up in my head.
	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	It's Thursday, June 13, 2024.
	This is your award-winning Game of Our Nation Media assassination episode 1668.
	This is No Agenda.
	Following the far right and broadcasting.
	We'll ride our current one straight into heaven.
	Good going.
	Whoa, did the kids cook for you again?
	Good morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where millennials can't cook, I'm John C. Devorak.
	The Crackpot and Buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	Let's piss off any young audience we have.
	We'll ride our current one straight into heaven.
	Good going.
	Uh-oh.
	Whoa, did the kids cook for you again?
	Is that what happened?
	No.
	Nate.
	I don't have any... Yeah.
	No.
	No.
	Yes.
	Yeah, no.
	Yeah, no.
	What?
	Yes.
	What happened?
	They can't cook.
	Well, that's... It just dawned on me as I was starting the show.
	That's quite a gross generalization.
	Well, then prove me wrong.
	I'm sitting there at the table.
	Manuals can't cook.
	Prove me wrong.
	What did they cook for you that was so bad?
	Nothing.
	Well, then that's bad.
	If they didn't cook, then you ate nothing.
	Where's this coming from?
	It just showed up in my head.
	And there's our opening statement.
	Yes, it just showed up in my head.
	It was good to go.
	Oh, there's so much happening, John.
	So many things that we've been warning people for.
	So many things we've warned people for.
	Like what?
	Like what?
	We've warned people about everything.
	It hasn't helped.
	No, it hasn't helped.
	That's right.
	It hasn't helped.
	No, nothing.
	It has not helped.
	If only Oprah had listened to us.
	We're very happy to say joins us right now in studio.
	I'm so glad you are here.
	And I'm so sorry that Oprah can't.
	Yesterday, she said, I'm going to rally.
	I'm going to rally.
	She had some kind of stomach thing, stomach flu, where stuff was coming out of both ends.
	I won't get too graphic.
	But needless to say, she ended up in the hospital, dehydration, IV.
	So it was a very serious thing.
	She's okay.
	She will be okay.
	She will be okay.
	I hope she's not mad at me for sharing that detail.
	But I wanted to make it clear though that it mattered to her and it really bothered her that she couldn't be here for you today.
	All right, sing along, everybody.
	Oh, oh, oh, Oprah's Zempick.
	We told her.
	We told her.
	Do not take that Ozempick.
	And now she's coming out of both ends.
	There's something, there's like, I just saw a piece or a tweet or something indicating there's like 10,000 lawsuits against this type of drug.
	Oh, I haven't heard about that.
	That doesn't surprise me.
	I mean, we've, again, we've been expecting it.
	Luckily, everything's okay.
	People, no worries.
	Tonight, news on Oprah Winfrey, hospitalized for a time after a bad case of a stomach bug.
	Her longtime friend, Gayle King, saying Oprah had to cancel appearing on CBS.
	What's this?
	They need to stop.
	Okay.
	Her longtime friend, Gayle King.
	Can they just come out already?
	Come on, you two.
	Just say it.
	Why does it have to be...
	Okay, but there's a couple of things about it.
	It's code, long-term.
	It's totally code.
	It's code.
	Unless, I mean, the way you normally report her friend, her friend, you say her friend.
	Yeah.
	You don't say her long-time friend, companion, and you know what, partner.
	Just because they go hiking with fanny packs doesn't mean anything, people.
	Come on!
	It's Pride Month!
	Her longtime friend, Gayle King, saying Oprah had to cancel appearing on CBS after she was hospitalized for a time.
	A spokesperson tonight for Oprah saying she's recovering following a stomach virus, resting and feeling better every day.
	Yeah, sure, virus.
	You watch.
	You watch.
	This is not good.
	Which brings me to a comment that I sent you on email.
	Oh, I don't know if I read it.
	What did you comment to me?
	Yeah, you did.
	You said, I've been telling you this for a weather.
	Could you repeat what I said just so I know for sure what I said?
	I sent you a picture of Megyn Kelly.
	Yes, yes, yes.
	Well, there is Ozempic written all over her face, literally.
	Yeah, Ozempic face, yes.
	And it's not a good look for her.
	I didn't realize it, but she has a...
	Her bones, basically now all we see is her bone structure.
	We don't get to see any, anything.
	I mean, her, and I, I don't know if people start taking this stuff and they start losing weight and they start looking in the mirror and saying, wow, I look terrific.
	You know, till they get to a skeleton level.
	I've learned that most women look in the mirror and the first thing that pops into their head is not, I look terrific.
	That's just a fact.
	But I've discussed this with the... No, I'm not going to argue that fact, but what it brings you to is the following, which is a known condition of the anorexic community, which you look in the mirror, you're skin and bones, and you say, I could lose some weight.
	Now, I have discussed this with the Keeper, and she says she is not so sure.
	She thinks it's just work.
	She doesn't think that it was Ozempic Face.
	You and I are, I'm on the O-train here.
	I know.
	Wow.
	I'm just saying.
	Yeah.
	I mean, we don't know.
	Well, maybe I'm going to have to back her up.
	I don't think she's right, but I can back her up with the clip.
	All right, what you got?
	So I was looking for some closing commentary, so I picked up, I went to, I do this every few months, I go to Sophia with an F. Now available on all podcast apps, no longer exclusive to Spotify.
	But she's always been on Apple.
	She, I'm now concluding she's one of the better interviewers.
	She's right up there with some of the best of them because she's got a screwball style.
	She had Meghan McCain on.
	Okay.
	All right.
	And Meghan McCain decided to discuss the fact that Meghan McCain is a podcaster.
	Oh, you don't say.
	All right.
	And which now Meghan used to work for Fox and she, you know, she was a I think working pretty hard there, and then she became a podcaster.
	And maybe this is what Meghan McCain has to say here, which I was going to say for later in the show.
	What Meghan McCain says here might apply to what Tina thinks.
	Talking about, like, everything for the last 10 minutes, one of which things was, you have a podcast, I guess.
	Look, podcasting, I don't think people understand, it is hard.
	Did everyone hear that?
	I've done everything.
	I've done terrestrial radio, TV, books, political stuff.
	Podcasting is a grind and you have to earn every listener and every view.
	We tape ours too, like every viewer, whatever.
	It is the utmost respect.
	I know you've been doing this a long time and you're like a queen in this space, but it is no joke.
	Okay.
	Stop this show.
	She's a queen in this space?
	A queen?
	In this space?
	It's hard.
	It's a grind, John.
	We just make it look easy.
	Exactly.
	So what Tina said about...
	About Kelly, it's possible that the grind, the difficult nature and the whole thing about podcasting, which she is now, is killing her.
	Well, this is random number theory, but I too have a large name on Clip talking about podcasting.
	Because, you know, this trend is catching on, John!
	So as the mainstream media, the big media companies, were becoming, like, just arms of the government, and just, like, full North Korea media landscape.
	Like, no one knows anything.
	It's all lies.
	That is where we are.
	I can say that with great authority, having worked there my whole life.
	There was this incredible renaissance happening in the most unlikely of mediums, this podcast.
	That is the world headquarters of free thinking and honesty.
	Yeah!
	Of all the trends.
	And again, this is right in my world.
	This is media.
	That's my world.
	Oh, man!
	It's the world headquarters of honesty!
	Go podcasting!
	Yeah, baby!
	The trend!
	It's 25 years in the making, but the trend is catching on!
	Welcome to the party, Tucker, Megan!
	Welcome, Queen of Podcasting!
	Awesome.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Well, people have no idea.
	Tina will be the first to agree with you.
	She'll say, if only people knew how much time and effort you and John put into the show.
	They think it's just automatic.
	It's hard!
	It's a grind, man!
	It's a grind.
	You never get outside.
	You're always collecting stories and clips.
	You know, looking at everything.
	Yes.
	Watching the news all day, ugh.
	Surprisingly little information about podcasting in the most recent Apple Worldwide Developers Conference show.
	Was it even mentioned?
	Like, yes in one context.
	Hey Siri, what was that podcast mom told me to listen to again?
	Oh yeah.
	That was the only mention of podcasting, which is interesting because what Apple has now decided to do is to, um, I mean, it's like, I don't see how this is.
	Okay.
	I guess it's AI or they call Apple, Apple intelligence.
	Nice try on that, by the way.
	You know, they just scan everything and, I guess, build a large language model on your device so it can find stuff.
	But, you know, still haven't fixed email.
	Still no fix.
	Not like, hey, Adam, we've fixed your email.
	So the stuff you're really interested in will pop to the top based on your behavior.
	That'll be the day.
	Even some newsletters won't go to a newsletter tab.
	It'll show up because, oh, it's the Noah Jenner newsletter.
	And you won't have to filter that.
	It's bullcrap.
	Well, you're nailing it right there.
	I mean, I can't disagree with any of that.
	But the spying aspect of it is overlooked completely because How would it know what your mom recommended to you unless you gave it as a reminder?
	And if you gave it as a reminder, that's hardly artificial intelligence.
	It is spying on your mother.
	No, that's not true.
	It's not spying, and they were very clear about it.
	It is in there collecting all of your information from all of your sources.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Collecting information.
	Yeah, but not from your mom, only what your mom sent you.
	Hey, stop making me defend Apple.
	Stop it.
	I have a comment, because I watched the whole thing.
	Apple is outlining how artificial intelligence will change the way you use your smartphone.
	The company says its own brand of AI, Apple Intelligence, will be able to summarize your emails, proofread your text messages, and generate customized images and emojis.
	Just provide a description and you'll see your Genmoji appear.
	Genmoji!
	Your Genmoji!
	Right before your eyes, along with more options to choose from.
	It will also be able to find and open your files and photos at your command.
	So you can search for really specific things, like Maya skateboarding in a tie-dye shirt.
	Or Katie with stickers on her face.
	And AI will help Virtual Assistant Siri be more productive.
	When you're filling out a form and need to input your driver's license, Siri will be able to find a photo of your license, extract your ID number, and type it into the form for you.
	Apple is now partnering with OpenAI, the pioneering company that developed the virtual assistant, ChatGPT.
	For example...
	If you need menu ideas for an elaborate meal to make for friends using some freshly caught fish and ingredients from your garden... Oh, wait!
	Everyone who uses an iPhone, of course, has freshly caught fish and fresh ingredients from their garden.
	Example, if you need menu ideas for an elaborate meal to make for friends using some freshly caught fish and ingredients from your garden, you can just ask Siri.
	Siri determines that ChatGPT might have good ideas for this, asks your permission to share your question, and presents the answer directly.
	With these features able to access so much data on your phone, many are worried about privacy.
	Apple insists the AI features will not save your data, and says it will allow independent experts to inspect its servers for privacy protections.
	But Elon Musk firing back, claiming Apple has no clue what's actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI.
	They're selling you down the river.
	Musk is now threatening to hand Apple devices at his companies.
	First, first a comment for the troll room here.
	Albert Guru says, actually, actually, Adam in 1990 see, 1990.
	Apple has enhanced mail to have the categorization exactly as you described, putting things like invoice emails into separate travel, separate bins.
	No, no, this is not what I'm saying.
	It should know that I want to... When I'm traveling, it should put the travel emails right there so I can see it.
	It's not about categorization.
	That's easy.
	Categorization?
	Yeah, that doesn't work.
	That's easy.
	That's... It's the whole point.
	You're missing everything.
	Let's just say newsletters.
	I, of course, filter newsletters to a newsletter folder, and I miss a lot of stuff.
	The AI should be, if it knows about the podcast my mom wants me to hear, it should know that, you know, no agenda's coming up.
	John C. Dvorak just sent an email.
	I'll show it to you right now because it's coming up tomorrow.
	Or maybe at 10 a.m.
	because they're starting at 11.
	That's what I call AI.
	Do that!
	And some spam I might actually be interested in.
	Do that!
	It can't.
	It can't.
	No, it can't.
	It can't.
	But I like the funny idea.
	It's actually true.
	There is some spam you might be interested in.
	Yes, I might be interested in.
	Exactly.
	There's no way.
	This is all pipe dream.
	It's all bull crap.
	Here are my comments about the presentation.
	So first of all, they started off With, uh, they're all in a plane, and they got their, uh, jumpsuits on, and they zip up, and they jump out of the airplane.
	They're parachuting down over the Cupertino campus, you know, the big spaceship, and poof, poof, poof!
	Their, uh, chutes open, it's all rainbow chutes, LGBT.
	Everywhere.
	Everywhere is rainbow.
	Everywhere is rainbow.
	A lot of rainbows.
	It was really, I mean, it was hokey.
	It was like, hello 1995 technology demo.
	But here's the thing that really bugged me.
	And I think I know a bit about fashion.
	Oh, here we go.
	Every single female present, because it's all style.
	Everyone's styles, you know, you can just see the stylists.
	Every single female presenter had pants on that are narrow at the waist, and then these really, it's not bell-bottoms, but it just goes down these huge wide pipes, which are high water, so above the ankle, and then they have like sandals on.
	I couldn't focus on any of this!
	These women look horrendous!
	This is a horrible, horrible look!
	Who ever thought that was good?
	I was flummoxed.
	Absolutely flummoxed by that.
	Flummoxed!
	Whoa!
	That's a good word, right?
	Oh, that's a great word.
	I was flummoxed!
	This is no good!
	Anyway.
	What brought you to watch this?
	Well, I was early for my periodontal appointment and I sat in the parking lot and watched it.
	And I'm interested, you know?
	There's something sad about that image.
	I need some more bone graft, unfortunately.
	Right after I get back from Europe.
	I hear there's... When are you leaving, by the way?
	I leave Friday.
	Tomorrow.
	I leave tomorrow.
	Oh, you leave tomorrow?
	That's interesting.
	And then, why is that interesting?
	What's interesting about that?
	Well, because Mimi asked me last night... Please tell me, why is this so interesting?
	I'll tell you why it's interesting.
	Because Mimi talked to me last night.
	She said, when's Adam going to Europe?
	I said, I have no idea.
	She said, well, he's probably going to have to leave, like, Friday.
	Yeah, probably.
	I said, why are you saying that?
	I don't know, she said.
	Because she knows the Meetup calendar, that's why.
	So I arrive Saturday, late morning, and then we... Oh, that's exactly right.
	I should have said that.
	Okay, now I'm not as surprised.
	And we have the big meet-up, which, by the way, Fire Marshal has cut us off at 115 people.
	So that's, unfortunately, we're full.
	115 people at the airport!
	That's gonna be interesting.
	So that's from 6.30 to 11.30.
	How'd the fire marshal find out about this con fab?
	He'd say, well, it's a rented venue.
	Everyone pays a small entrance fee to contribute to that and they get two drinks because there's, you know, they brought everything in for this.
	This is, it's a professional organization.
	They've got typical Dutch games that they'll have.
	What's a typical Dutch game?
	Let's find out.
	Sjoelbak.
	Sjoela.
	Sjoelbak.
	Sjoelbak.
	Is that where you eat like a stupendwafel?
	Okay, let me see.
	S-J-O-E-L-B-A-K.
	Look it up right now.
	Sjoelbak.
	Give me the spelling again.
	S-J-O-E-L-B-A-K.
	I'm not looking it up.
	It's amazing.
	Schule.
	This is a very classic Dutch game.
	So that's just one.
	I don't want to give away any more secrets of the meetup.
	So looking forward to seeing everybody.
	And then, you know, I'll go to bed and I'll get up in the morning and I'll be prepping all day long, having lost all prep time on the airplane.
	And then at 8 PM, uh, somewhere I'll have to eat in the meantime, then I do the show until midnight.
	You know, it's a grind, man.
	It's hard.
	It's hard.
	It's really hard.
	I'm telling you.
	Let's stick with talking about spying and technology.
	Another thing we've been just waiting.
	It's actually the Mo prophecy.
	After defund the police, all the cul-de-sacs, all the gated communities, they get their private police officers who used to work for the police force, gave up, and now making three times as much money eating donuts, drinking coffee, protecting the rich people, and for you poor people in Jersey, Jersey Shore!
	Aerial nighttime video shows officers responding to an unconscious woman on the beach in Ocean City.
	Police say they found her using thermal cameras on their new drones.
	After months of planning, the Ocean City Police Department's new drone program has launched.
	Lieutenant Mark Pancoast heads up the unit with three drones and five FAA-certified pilots.
	Today, Detective Matt Crowley put the drone up, checking out the beach and the boardwalk.
	Officer safety, public safety, using it efficiently, and more importantly, using it.
	Much like with Drone 6, these new drones will give police a whole new perspective from the air, and they say within a week of launching the drone program, they were able to use them to respond to multiple incidents.
	We got mutual aid out of Woodbine, New Jersey State Police, with assisting locating a missing subject that they had that had gone into a creek.
	So we were able to find him within the first couple of minutes.
	Over the weekend, police used it to track down several suspects in a car allegedly stolen out of Camden County.
	Another new feature, the incident commander on the ground can pull up the live image from the drone on a laptop and view body cameras.
	There's a situation where there's multiple officers on location.
	The incident commander is able to activate multiple body cameras at the same time.
	Lieutenant Pankost wants to spread the word about this new program so people aren't surprised when they see them.
	So in the back scenes of it, there's nothing hidden or nefarious that we're doing with these drones.
	They're there for public safety.
	It's for your protection, people.
	Don't worry.
	Nothing to see here.
	It's just for your public safety and protection.
	And so now, I like this added feature where they can stream the body cams up to the drone and back to base.
	That's cool.
	I mean, this, and you know what they're gonna be doing.
	If you and I were cops at the Jersey Shore, what would we be doing, John?
	Probably shooing green-headed flies away.
	No, we'd be looking for thongs.
	Of course you are!
	There was a test done some years ago where they had some police officers were put into a surveillance situation where they're supposed to keep an eye on the front door.
	And the next door neighbor's house was some woman stripping.
	They couldn't keep their eyes on the door.
	They kept watching the girl.
	And so yeah, so exactly, you're right.
	That's exactly what you'd be doing.
	But there was a little tidbit in there that caught my attention.
	When did you have to be FAA certified?
	Oh no, that's a must now.
	You either have to have an existing pilot's license or you have to get licensed.
	Certainly for if it's out of range so you can't see the drone.
	I mean, there's licensing now.
	I haven't heard this.
	We've discussed this many times.
	Well, I find it obnoxious.
	I even discussed it as a potential exit strategy.
	I got a pilot's license.
	I can be a babe watching.
	Babe.
	Babe watching.
	It reminds me when I... Can you imagine, by the way, can you imagine being women on the beach and having drones just hovering right over you?
	Yeah, of course.
	With the camera pointed down.
	I mean, this is ridiculous, this whole thing.
	It reminds me of my check ride when I did my check ride.
	So, you know, you I already did my theoretical, passed my theory test and did my helicopter checkride and then like a year later I got my fixed wing license when you don't have to do the theoretical part, just the checkride.
	And I did it at Willamette Valley, at Willamette Airport.
	Which is a great airport because, you know, you can crash land, you know, a 777 there, and it's huge, it's a huge runway.
	And, you know, the examiner comes, you know, it's just an examiner, guys, FAA, you know, guy, and he gets in, I fly around, he says, hey, hey, take it down to 300 feet.
	What do you mean?
	Well, sometimes there's a babe over here, she's nude sunbathing, let's see if we can see her.
	This is my check ride.
	What?
	Are you kidding me?
	Hey, board examiners, what are you going to do?
	So, amidst, well, speaking of babes, speaking of AI, speaking of exit strategies, how did Scaramanga miss this?
	Beauty pageant contestants have always been judged by their looks, and in recent decades, their do-gooderly deeds and their personalities.
	But one thing has remained consistent throughout beauty pageant history, and that's the fact that you generally had to be a human being to enter.
	That is now changing.
	Models created using generative artificial intelligence are competing in the inaugural Miss AI Pageant this month.
	NPR's Chloe Veltman has been looking into it.
	Hey, Chloe.
	Hi, Scott.
	So what exactly are we talking about here?
	Really, this is just a bunch of images on social media of extremely beautiful, sexy young women.
	But these are not real women.
	They are AI-generated models.
	They exist only on places like Instagram, mostly as stills with accompanying written statements about their Even though these aren't real women, there is a real prize, $5,000 for the winner and a lot of people are participating in this.
	There were 1500 submissions and now we're down to 10 finalists.
	AI.
	Even though these aren't real women, there is a real prize, $5,000 for the winner.
	And a lot of people are participating in this.
	There were 1,500 submissions and now we're down to 10 finalists.
	A panel of judges will pick a winner at the end of the month.
	It really says something when the winner of Miss Alabama is 350 pounds and yet the women in AI are all like babes.
	So Something to be said about what's happening to our culture.
	You know, we have not commented on the 350-pound Miss Alabama.
	No.
	I think most people saw it.
	It wasn't top of mind, honestly.
	I think everybody saw it.
	And there's lots of videos, a lot of posts about it.
	I don't know what to make of it, to be honest.
	I don't know what to say about it, but you're right.
	Yeah, you might as well, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Well, there's a number of posters on Twitter that post that this is one woman, I can't, it's called Rose or something, I can't remember her name.
	Tokyo Rose?
	No, no, it's just one name with a bunch of accents over it, so screw you.
	I just ran into it by accident, on accident.
	And she posts pictures of supposedly herself, but I don't think so.
	And then you start to get the, oh, it's just a bunch of AI images.
	She's got 127,000 followers.
	I don't know how you get that many followers just posting this.
	I'm thinking of putting up a porn site.
	It won't be viewable in Texas.
	You can't, you know, Texas now... Well, even Twitter is allowing pornography now on the site.
	You know that, right?
	Yeah, well, I heard about it.
	I mean, I'm not really on Twitter much except for my inbox, basically.
	Um, but if, uh, remember someone sent us a couple of links for AOC, uh, AI porn videos.
	You don't remember that?
	It's in your email.
	I remember that and the Taylor Swift stuff we've talked about.
	This is, this is like a week ago.
	Oh no, I don't remember that.
	Yeah.
	So, so I, I plug it in xhamster.com and immediately I can tell you exactly what it says.
	Hold on a second.
	Immediately, you got a bunch of malware put on your machine.
	I can tell you that for sure.
	It pops up and says, you must be 18 plus to access xHamster.
	In order to comply with Texas law, we have implemented a procedure to verify the age of users accessing our website.
	Lies.
	And then you... No, that's a Texas law.
	No, I'm not talking about the law, I'm talking about they've got procedures.
	They do have a procedure, because first you have to click the box that says, I consent to the collection and processing of my biometric data, photo, and ID for the sole purpose of confirming my legal age.
	And you have to prepare a device with a camera to start age estimation, which of course I did not do.
	And it probably sends it off to Israel, to the Mossad.
	They're the ones that seem to do all of Elon's age verification.
	And I'm like, no, I'm not gonna do that.
	I'm not that interested.
	And if you recall, on the last show we had this news report.
	We have breaking news right now.
	New York State is one step closer to having two new laws that will protect kids online.
	Both measures have just made it through the legislature and Governor Hochul says that she will sign them.
	One statute is designed to restrict algorithms that hook kids on social media and the other will limit the collection of personal data.
	The governor says that the state will lead the nation in online safety by implementing these New laws.
	So I think my comment at the time was, here comes the digital ID, not one week later!
	The New York Mobile ID is a highly secured digital credential.
	Credential?
	So in short, it's your driver license, your learner permit, or your non-driver ID on your smartphone.
	If you're flying, if you're traveling out of LaGuardia or JFK, you can use it at any of the security checkpoints here at LGA or JFK.
	It helps you get through security quickly and easily.
	You don't have to dig through your purse or your carry-on for your driver's license.
	Just have it right on your phone.
	You don't need to pull up your boarding pass.
	When you use the New York Mobile ID, the TSA will know automatically whether or not you have a boarding pass.
	So quick and easy.
	The great thing about the New York Mobile ID is that it's so private and it's so secure.
	So private and so secure!
	Let's say, for example, down the road your local bar or restaurant accepts a New York Mobile ID and they ask you to prove your age.
	You scan your ID rather than handing over your physical document.
	The bartender or the bouncer, they don't need to know your home address.
	They don't even need to know your name.
	They just need to know you're over 21, right?
	Right, right.
	This, by the way, this 30 more seconds here, but this ruins a great American tradition.
	Of the fake ID to get a drink.
	This is sad.
	This is a rite of passage.
	We all did that.
	Like, you need to, everyone, hey man, let me see your fake ID.
	So that's over.
	Not necessarily.
	It's so easy.
	A verifier will scan your ID, pops up that you are or you aren't over 21.
	It's that simple.
	Unlike a physical ID, let's say you lose your purse or you drop your wallet somewhere, anyone can pick it up, look in your wallet, find your physical ID, and they've got all of your personal information.
	Conversely, you lose your phone, your mobile ID is completely protected.
	You have to enter either a six-digit PIN that you set up, or you can unlock it with your face or your fingerprint, face ID, or touch ID.
	These are lies!
	This is going to, this is going to be normal.
	They're normalizing it.
	They're normalizing drones.
	They're normalizing the digital ID.
	It's all coming.
	I feel bad for the, you know, they can't cook and they're going to be slaves.
	That's, that's, that's.
	You can't cook.
	They're going to be slaves.
	Well, you can still use a fake ID says if it's out of state.
	So you use it, you make an out of state one, you go now I'm from Idaho.
	What am I supposed to do?
	It's just a matter of time.
	I just want to drink.
	It's just a matter of time.
	SkyNet is clearly here.
	Before you get out of the... You mentioned AOC and you're talking about AI and all these other things.
	Do you have a clip I want to play?
	We talk about this all the time.
	It's one of the themes of the show.
	But I want to play the AOC clip, which the more you hear it, the less it sounds like her.
	But this is a clip where she, she's on, it's an AI creation of her saying, talking about cease fire.
	And she says, you cease fire.
	Play the clip and then I'll, I'll make my comment.
	Cease fire means that somebody sees a fire.
	It could be any kind of fire.
	It could be a big fire or a small fire.
	A bonfire or even a candle flame.
	It just matters that somebody sees a fire.
	That's why we call it a ceasefire.
	So this was posted as she's so dumb?
	Is that the idea?
	Yeah, of course.
	And very believable, of course, because she's so dumb.
	So if you go and you look at any of these postings, I think this has been posted by everybody and their sister, and you just look at the comments and the comments are all the same.
	This is A.I., this is A.I., this is A.I.
	It's not as though it's fooled anybody.
	It's always possible that she actually said these things, but no.
	The reason I bring this up is because there's a hilarious clip contrasting Zelensky With Macron when they were younger and they were like stage dancers and they were, they were both extremely gay.
	But wait, Zelensky actually did that.
	No, I think Macron did too.
	I don't believe that this is a fake.
	Ah, there you go.
	Well, but you did get tricked by AI the other day.
	No, I've never been tricked by AI.
	Well, you posted a picture of an airplane Doing a touch-and-go as another airplane crossed the runway.
	Oh yeah, that picture, yeah.
	No, it was a video, and you said, this is great piloting!
	And all the comments underneath were, yeah, I'm sure right after the guy was done with that, he reset his Xbox.
	It was so obviously AI, but you fell for it.
	I didn't fall for it.
	Okay.
	Whereas last night, Tina posted a picture, you know, our album art, this may be happening everywhere soon, for Curry and the Keeper on Instagram, and Instagram added a little tag that says, this image was created with AI.
	And it wasn't.
	It was created with Canva.
	I thought that was rather interesting.
	That's interesting.
	Well, this is what my point was, which is that they're going like with this McCrone-Zelensky clip, which you have to check it out.
	It's hilarious.
	The two of them prancing around.
	You're going to start seeing more.
	No, I didn't do that.
	I didn't say that.
	Just denials.
	And blaming AI.
	We've said, by the way, which is an assertion we've been making for a while.
	The young woman who does art for our church, she was putting together like, it was actually funny enough for a comedy show at the church.
	And it was beyond the red and blue or something like that.
	And she was using Canva, and she wanted to put an AR-15 in there, and Canva wouldn't allow it.
	Canva said, no, you can't put an AR-15 in this image.
	What?
	Yeah.
	Hell yeah.
	What is this software, passive software, got to do with the price of bread in this regard?
	This is the future.
	Here we are.
	The GIMP.
	Bring out the GIMP.
	That is unbelievable.
	Yeah.
	No one should buy that product ever.
	No, we're going back to the GIMP.
	The GIMP.
	The GIMP?
	Hey, speaking of ceasefire, if you don't mind, I'm going to switch topics for a moment.
	Secretary of State Antony Blinken says Hamas wants to make a number of changes to the current ceasefire proposal.
	Hamas could have answered with a single word.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Instead, Hamas waited nearly two weeks and then proposed more changes.
	A number of which go beyond positions that had previously taken and accepted.
	Blinken in Qatar today.
	The latest stop in his Middle East trip meeting with leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday.
	Blinken says they are working to bridge the gaps in Hamas' new demands.
	You have to question whether they're proceeding in good faith or not.
	Early this morning, an unprecedented escalation at Israel's border with Lebanon.
	The IDF says more than 160 rockets were fired by Hezbollah in Lebanon in a two-hour window.
	Hezbollah says it's in response to the killing of one of their top commanders by Israeli forces.
	Today in the West Bank, a funeral procession for three Palestinian militants killed during an IDF raid yesterday.
	Israeli forces say four of the six killed were armed militants and there was an exchange of gunfire.
	In Gaza, as this family searches for water, the Hamas-run health ministry says more than 37,000 people have been killed since the war started.
	Blinken stressing the need for a ceasefire deal.
	Blinken says with no deal in place, the war Hamas started back on October 7th will go on.
	He says he is urgently pushing to close this deal.
	So, I have a question here because, you know, all of a sudden Hezbollah thinks it's a good idea.
	Yeah, let's send some rockets in because look at what those guys achieved.
	That worked.
	That's really good.
	We should do that to our country.
	At this point, I'm thinking, we are just doing all of this.
	Because we are sending the ammo and whatever else, whatever weaponry, we're sending that to Israel, and then where it blows up, well, we'll send you some money too!
	U.S.
	Secretary of State Antony Blinken has announced more than $400 million in additional humanitarian aid for Palestinian civilians.
	This comes as families of Israeli hostages rallied outside a Tel Aviv hotel today, where Blinken met with relatives of Americans who are still being held in Gaza.
	He is keeping the pressure on Hamas to accept the proposal put forward by President Biden to stop the war in Gaza and release those hostages.
	This is like rubbalizing in real time.
	The way we used to do it is first we rubbalize, we take a couple of years, then we send in the cleanup crew, which we also pay for.
	Now we're doing it the same day.
	And who are they giving the $400 million to?
	Hamas?
	Are they airdropping it?
	That's who would get it.
	Are they airdropping it?
	Or are they giving it to NGOs?
	This is irksome.
	It's very irksome.
	Let's play my NTD Gaza peace talks clip.
	Let's see.
	Under Gaza.
	I got it.
	Secretary of State Antony Blinken is in Qatar today.
	He's trying to push forward a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, but major hurdles remain.
	Here's that story.
	Secretary of State Antony Blinken says Hamas wants changes to a possible ceasefire deal that are not acceptable.
	Look, as I said, based on what we saw last night, the response from Hamas, numerous changes proposed to the Deal that was on the table and that the entire world has gotten behind, but some of those are workable changes.
	Some, as I said, are not.
	He didn't lay out exactly what changes Hamas is seeking, but said the mediators will keep trying to close the deal.
	Blinken put the blame on Hamas for changing its demands.
	He also expressed frustrations at how long it took the US-designated terrorist group to respond to President Biden's peace proposal.
	12 days.
	This comes as Hezbollah fired a massive barrage of rockets into northern Israel on Wednesday, one of the biggest from the group since the war began.
	Israel's military says it detected about 215 projectiles, some of which were intercepted, the strikes causing several fires.
	The Iran-backed terrorist group is avenging the killing of a top commander, the Pentagon on Wednesday urging both sides to de-escalate.
	Do you want to see a de-escalation of tensions in the region?
	Meanwhile, the director of the World Health Organization gave a dire warning about the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
	A significant proportion of Gaza's population is now facing catastrophic hunger and famine-like conditions.
	Blinken also said the U.S.
	will insist that Israel and other countries follow international humanitarian law and the laws of armed conflict.
	This is such a hoax.
	And, of course, this is AIPAC funded by the military-industrial complex.
	Oh, let's do Hezbollah.
	They want a war with Iran.
	They want more.
	It's a great place because, you know, people get bored of it, don't waste the sand, whatever.
	Meanwhile, hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars are sent everywhere to the missiles and then for the cleanup.
	Scott Ritter actually had a pretty good breakdown of that stupid pier that broke apart.
	Yes, the pier, the $300 million pier.
	Well, it broke apart right in time because the mission was actually completed.
	What it was meant for, it succeeded.
	We know that the Israelis used humanitarian vehicles to deploy their troops.
	One of the trucks was designed to mimic the transfer of displaced persons that move around.
	And there's no doubt in my mind that the Israelis probably rehearsed this, meaning they sent fake runs through the area just to get the locals used to seeing this kind of vehicle moving.
	But this came off of the pier.
	So the Israeli forces deployed to the pier disguised as American forces, and then they fell in on these vehicles and they deployed.
	And the United States had to in the command and control, the logistics, the planning of this.
	So the United States was involved in this operation that turned into a war crime because they slaughtered over 220 civilians to rescue four hostages.
	They killed at least three other hostages.
	If this had been an American operation, I can guarantee you that there would be a congressional inquiry and there would be court marshals.
	Yeah.
	Sounds pretty reasonably true to me.
	Yeah, it could be.
	Somebody pointed out with Hamas rejecting this deal, there's got to be some poison pill in there or something.
	The argument is that if you're undergoing a supposed genocide, you'd agree to anything for a ceasefire.
	You'd think so!
	But no, no, no.
	We got to change this and that.
	It's almost as though that side of the thing is rigged.
	And who answers?
	This is the stuff that we don't get reporting on.
	So you send it.
	Do you drop a letter?
	Do you call somebody?
	Who turns this down?
	And where are they?
	Are they in Qatar?
	They have to be in Qatar.
	So why don't we have those guys on camera saying, we reject this!
	You, you Western pigs!
	No, it's just, oh, they just reject.
	I don't believe any of it anymore.
	I really don't.
	There's no evidence.
	There's no evidence they gave it.
	There's no evidence.
	There's no evidence of anything.
	It's very troubling.
	And we should just stop.
	Stop all of this.
	Stop it.
	Biden, stop it.
	I do love when they, you know, now they're going after Queen Ursula.
	About time.
	So she was about to speak and an Irish journalist attempted a citizen's arrest!
	Thank you very much.
	Mrs. von der Leyen, this is a citizen's arrest.
	You are charged with aiding genocide in Gaza.
	You would express total support for Israel at the beginning of this genocide.
	The blood of Palestinian children is on your hands.
	You are a criminal, Mr. Lonell.
	You're in a hate.
	You're not here.
	You're not here for a second.
	You're a war.
	You're a criminal.
	Free Palestine.
	Free Palestine.
	Yeah.
	Free Palestine.
	Free Palestine.
	The video is kind of better because she just sits there with this dumb smirk on her face.
	And this is a double-sided coin here, because on one hand, a very, very sad day for the show.
	Very sad day, as Claire Daly will no longer be in the European Parliament.
	Yeah, she's out.
	This means that we should... And then she also took a trip to... I had a clip on this.
	Let me set you up with what happened during the European Parliament parliamentary elections.
	Across Europe voters prioritized economic and migration policies over the planet as Green parties were the biggest losers of this year's European parliamentary elections.
	After their best ever results in 2019 the Greens are now left with 53 seats down from 72.
	Traditionally a Green stronghold, the party's vote share nearly halved in Germany.
	In France, the main Green party, EELV, won just 5% of the vote.
	Yet not all was lost for the Greens.
	In Netherlands, the alliance of Greens and socialist leaders came out on top, while the Swedish Greens secured 13.6% of the vote.
	But analysts say that security and economic troubles drown out environmental concerns for voters.
	Like in Germany or like in Italy, young people have moved from concern for the survival of the planet, Greta Thunberg, Green, to concern for the identity of their country.
	As the Green faction loses momentum, the European Green Deal, a package of cross-party environmental policies, may also be up for debate.
	With policies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing renewables, the deal has already faced challenges in recent months by the centre-right European People's Party, a party now in the majority.
	Yeah, and that's Ursula's party, the European People's Party, so she'll probably just stay in power and nothing will change.
	And what's up with the Dutch?
	The Dutch capitulated.
	Here's my bike.
	Let's go green.
	I don't get it either.
	I mean, it's really split, you see.
	Sweden as well.
	Sweden did not vote for parties that want to change the immigration policies.
	How does that happen?
	Sweden?
	They have some of the biggest problems.
	Maybe.
	And then Macron did, you know, he made the bold move.
	French President Emmanuel Macron has just called snap elections for his country after suffering a resounding defeat in the European election.
	Addressing his country, Macron said the results of the EU vote for his government were grim and could not be ignored.
	His coalition came in second to well behind Marine Le Pen's far-right national rally, which is on course for nearly a third of the vote.
	The first round of voting in France in the snap elections will be held on June 30th.
	So the conventional thinking goes something like this.
	Oh yeah?
	Oh yeah?
	You think you know it all?
	You far-right horrible people?
	Here you go, snap election!
	You run the country during the Olympics, during the protests on the street, and everyone getting mad.
	Why don't you go screw it up for a little bit?
	Well, you know, that's interesting you brought that up because I never even considered the angle about getting out of town during the Olympics, which is what it sounds like.
	That's what you want to do.
	I mean, there are protests, you know, people, the police are tear gassing activists.
	These are the Greens, you know, so friendly Green people.
	They're all mad.
	So they're protesting the far right.
	And then in the UK, who are not in the European Parliament, of course, they're also moving left.
	It's like, what is going on?
	Europe is splitting apart.
	We got Germany and France.
	Everyone's like, they're sick of it.
	Sick of the green stuff.
	They want sick of the immigration.
	And you've got the Netherlands and you've got Sweden and all these other and then England will just add them to it.
	They're like, oh, no, no, we want more lefty.
	What is happening?
	We want more lefty.
	We had that in San Francisco.
	We have this guy Peskin.
	Who is running against London Breed as for mayor, and this guy, and if you hear this guy, I wish I almost could clip him, but I can't find any good clips anymore, where he goes, you know, the problem is, you know, they're blaming everything on the Democrats, and they're, it's that the problem is they're not, we're not progressive enough.
	We're not liberal enough.
	That's the problem.
	That's what's causing homelessness and we're not, you know, defunding the police.
	We didn't go all the way.
	How would you know how it works if you don't go all the way?
	And he's getting a lot of attention.
	Oh yeah, that makes sense.
	So, I mean, if this guy gets in office, you think San Francisco is bad, this will be a classic.
	And he looks like a little nebbish, nebbisher type, gnome-ish, kind of a creepy little guy, you know, petite male with a beard.
	Well, most of these people are petite.
	Macron is petite.
	Man, the people are really mean to his wife, but my God, she needs a makeover.
	I mean, she has this big wig on, and I mean, she literally looks like someone from Planet of the Apes.
	Well, everyone says she's a guy.
	Yeah, there's that.
	More so than they did with Michelle.
	There's probably more evidence, too.
	And if you see this video, like I was promoting earlier, with Macron and Zelensky dancing and prancing around when there were dancers on the stage.
	more fuel to the fire.
	You look at it and you go, well, maybe there's something to this.
	And in the meantime, there's very, certainly here, very little reporting on what's happening with BRICS, who are having a big meeting in Russia, and it seems like they're getting serious.
	Foreign ministers from Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa are meeting in Russia with the future expansion of the bloc high on the agenda.
	The interests of all participating countries in this coincide and meet the aspirations of other countries of the world's majority, which was confirmed by the doubling of our association in 2023.
	This is confirmed by the fact that about 30 states have applied for rapprochement with BRICS in one form or the other.
	Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, Iran and Ethiopia are all recent additions.
	And Cameroon, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Syria, Thailand, Venezuela and Zimbabwe are knocking at the door.
	BRICS is growing fast, looking to challenge the current world order and the dominance of Western powers.
	And with more than a third of global GDP under its umbrella, it has serious economic clout.
	Total GDP calculated at purchasing power parity, even if we take only the five founding countries, has long surpassed that of the Western G7.
	In 1995, according to the International Monetary Fund, BRICS countries accounted for 16.9% of the global GDP, compared to the G7's 44.9%.
	A year after the bloc was formed, its combined GDP rose to 26.6%.
	The G7 was at 34.3%.
	The G7 was at 34.3%.
	In 2023, BRICS' 32.1% surpassed the G7's 29.9%.
	BRICS is also eyeing a single currency, looking to uproot the dominance of the U.S. dollar.
	So this is the thing that, honestly, we should be concerned about, is they want their own monetary unit.
	And I had to search far and wide to find even a one-minute clip that kind of explains what's happening, but here it is.
	Well, everything is changing quickly for the U.S.
	dollar.
	In this past week, we've seen two major events that are going to completely change the future of our world.
	The first event was the announcement of a new BRICS payment system that will in fact challenge the status of the U.S.
	dollar in international transactions.
	But what's even bigger is the shocking announcement that after a 50-year run, the agreement between the United States and Saudi Arabia to export oil exclusively in U.S.
	dollars has officially ended on June 9, 2024.
	The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia has decided to not renew its partnership with the U.S.
	and instead will open up the Saudis' lucrative oil trade to other countries and currencies.
	This is a massive blow to the status of the U.S.
	dollar as the world's reserve currency.
	For the past 50 years, the U.S.
	government has mandated that oil must be sold exclusively in U.S.
	dollars, elevating the dollar's status as the world's reserve currency.
	Earlier this week, Reuters reported that Saudi Arabia has now joined a China-led central bank digital currency project in what could be another step towards less of the world's oil trade being done in U.S.
	dollars.
	So this is bad.
	Where did you get that, by the way?
	It's from a podcast.
	I have to be honest.
	It was hard to get that, but that was the only person who authoritatively... Nobody wants to talk about it.
	No!
	You know what they're talking about?
	Because the G7 leaders are all together.
	Here's what they're talking about.
	World leaders have arrived in Italy for the G7 summit.
	This year's meeting is set to focus on global conflict.
	Leaders have reportedly agreed on the terms of a 50 billion dollar loan to Ukraine, backed by the profits from 300 billion euros in frozen Russian assets.
	Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he will also sign a 10-year bilateral security deal with the U.S.
	to train Ukrainian armed forces, as well as an agreement with Japan for long-term support.
	Yeah, so we're stealing your money?
	No wonder!
	There's a question that comes up, which is, if the assets are frozen, how can they be making money from them?
	Because they don't steal them.
	They're not stealing.
	You're right.
	They're not frozen.
	They're not stealing the money.
	They're stealing the profits from the money.
	But if the money is frozen... Well, it depends on how you determine the term frozen.
	Obviously, frozen doesn't actually mean frozen.
	It means it's being invested.
	Yeah, it's Euroclear.
	It's in the system.
	They're using it in the system.
	And treating it as their own and taking the interest profits from the use of that money.
	Yeah, just like a bank does.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, exactly.
	With your money.
	But they're so desperate now about Ukraine that Lindsey Graham invoked a very classic Dutch term, de ap komt uit de mouw.
	Which means the monkey is coming out of his sleeve.
	I have no idea where it comes from, but they say it all the time.
	He let the monkey out of his sleeve regarding Ukraine.
	He's desperate.
	Please, people, we have to keep Ukraine on our side because...
	Yeah.
	to get the weapons flowing.
	He created a loan system.
	They're sitting on $10 to $12 trillion of critical minerals in Ukraine.
	They could be the richest country in all of Europe.
	I don't want to give that money and those assets to Putin to share with China.
	If we help Ukraine now, they can become the best business partner we ever dreamed of.
	That 10 to 12 trillion dollars of critical mineral assets could be used by Ukraine and the West, not given to Putin and China.
	This is a very big deal, how Ukraine ends.
	Let's help them win a war we can't afford to lose.
	Let's find a solution to this war.
	But they're sitting on a gold mine to give Putin 10 or 12 trillion dollars of critical minerals that he will share with China is ridiculous.
	So we must take it from Ukraine.
	Horrible people.
	Now, I'd like to see somebody, or somebody out there must have a map or some sort of indicator.
	Unless it's in the Donbass, which is all Russia really is angling for.
	It probably is.
	It probably is.
	I'd like to know.
	I have a breakdown of the, so they, Ukraine has 5% of the world's mineral resources, ranks top 10 for the world for several raw materials, metallic and non-metallic, such as titanium, Ball clays?
	What is ball clays?
	I have no idea.
	No, I don't want it.
	Fe-Mn, Fe-SiMn alloys.
	Those are all iron salts.
	Gallium, lithium, graphite, magnesium.
	Let me see.
	I do have some links here.
	The mineral resources of Ukraine.
	Let me see if there's a map.
	There's a map.
	Oh yes, there is a map.
	I have a map, John.
	Okay, the map is very unclear.
	It appears to be in Russian.
	But this map is useless to me.
	I can't understand the map.
	The map is useless.
	Look, when Lindsey Graham lets the monkey out of the sleeve and says that, I mean, he means business.
	You know it.
	He's been trying to get Ukraine since 2012.
	But you know if they mention this earlier in the game, maybe they get some more support.
	Even the Washington Post?
	You wait to the last minute and tell us this?
	Are you kidding me?
	Even the Washington Post reported on this.
	Ukraine risks losing vast mineral resources to Russian occupation.
	So it must be in the Donbass region.
	Why else would you be fighting over it?
	Hello?
	I'm sure Putin knows.
	Oh, here we go.
	Let's see.
	Not that the Russians do that great of a job of totally exploiting their own resources.
	They got tons of all that same stuff.
	Last.
	Here we go.
	Russia possesses vast amounts of natural resources, but denying Ukraine's own strategically undermined the country's economy, forcing Kiev to import coal.
	Okay, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	U.S.
	officials believe it will try to do... Okay.
	Ukraine would also lose a myriad of other reserves, including stores of natural gas, oil, and rare earth minerals essential for certain high-tech components.
	Last month, 1,200 feet underground in the Donbass region mine, Soot-caked workers clawed at the black coal seams with a sense of urgency.
	Well, that's coal.
	12.4 trillion lost in wealth is what the Washington Post reports.
	So.
	4 trillion?
	12.4.
	12.4?
	Trillion, yes.
	That's a lot.
	12.4 trillion.
	Yes.
	That's a lot.
	Yeah.
	So, I mean, what can we, how come this is all of a sudden news?
	It's still unreported by the mainstream.
	I think it's for the same reason that all of a sudden people started saying, you know, that money for Ukraine, it really goes to U.S.
	contractors.
	They're desperate.
	Which is a talking point from their AIPAC babysitter.
	Tell them this.
	It's true.
	So they must be desperate.
	I can't see any other way.
	Maybe this has always been the prize.
	Why is Lindsey Graham on NBC News talking about it?
	It must be desperation.
	I think you're right.
	I think you're dead on here.
	This is finally revealed.
	Like you said, the monkey out of the sleeve or whatever.
	The season of reveal.
	Yes, the monkey comes out of the sleeve.
	Season of reveal.
	You bring that in all the time.
	Yes, I'm claiming it, you see.
	It's my term.
	So he sounds like the season of panic, the season of fear.
	Yes, the monkey comes out of the sleeve season.
	But I will say when it comes to Russia... It's too late, it seems to me.
	No, it's done.
	It's done.
	By being dishonest with the American public, they blew it.
	Yep, yep.
	And this is probably what they've always been after, Russia's riches.
	I was like, well, we can't get anything there in actual Russia.
	We'll grab this stuff.
	It's good.
	We got the farmland.
	We already got that.
	We already sold those contracts.
	That's what Zelensky's main job was, to sell to Cargill and, you know, the other big industrial food people.
	Yeah, Cargill's got a piece of the action.
	And now, oh, it's very troubling.
	And supposedly Ukraine's the breadbasket, you know, but Russia's also a breadbasket of sorts.
	I mean, I got your breadbasket right here.
	Especially for wheat.
	Yeah.
	Uh, but if there's one story that I got calls about and text messages... Calls?
	Yes, people call me.
	Hey, hey man.
	They do?
	Should I be worried about this?
	Uh, I'm, I'm, I'm, this is concerning.
	What's happening?
	I'm, I'm kind of worried.
	A 21 cannon salute greeted a fleet of Russian military ships off the coast of Havana on Wednesday.
	The ships, adorned with Russian and Cuban flags, were followed by a nuclear-powered submarine, all set to take part in military exercises in the coming weeks.
	The arrival accompanied by a diplomatic visit of Cuba's foreign minister to Moscow, where he and his Russian counterpart both lashed out at Washington.
	Cuba reiterates its condemnation of the increasingly aggressive stance of the United States government and NATO, including unilateral sanctions against the Russian Federation.
	Russia confirms its position to resolutely support Havana's just demands for an immediate end to Washington's economic, trade and financial blockade of Cuba. - That's sweet.
	Russia and Cuba are longtime allies, and Russian warships have stopped in Havana before.
	But the fleet's arrival comes less than two weeks after U.S.
	President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to use U.S.
	weapons to strike inside Russia.
	Prompting Vladimir Putin to suggest that Russia could respond elsewhere in the world.
	With Cuba just 145 kilometers from the U.S.
	state of Florida, its strategic position has raised U.S.
	concerns before, sparking memories of the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, when fear spread that Russia would carry out a nuclear attack on U.S.
	soil.
	Although the Russian fleet includes a nuclear-powered submarine, a senior U.S.
	official said intelligence indicates no nuclear weapons are on board any of the ships, and that the Russian deployment posed no direct threat to the United States.
	This is great!
	We have a complete replay of the Cuban Missile Crisis, only we don't have JFK, we have Demented Joe!
	It's amazing!
	I have this, I have another version of the same clip which is the, it's called Sina, because I left the H out of the typo here, Russia moving into the Western Hemisphere.
	Lawmakers deposed officials from the State Department and USAID as part of Wednesday's hearing.
	Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Congressman Michael McCaul, highlighted that it's China, Russia, and Iran.
	The actors are expanding their malign activities in the Americas.
	As we speak, four Russian warships Including a nuclear-powered submarine and a frigate.
	Is that McCall who's talking?
	Who is this?
	Sounds like McCall.
	Whoever he said earlier.
	Let me go back a little bit.
	The actors are expanding their malign activities in the Americas.
	As we speak, four Russian warships, including a nuclear-powered submarine and a frigate carrying hypersonic missiles, are set to arrive in Cuba.
	China is bankrolling the dictatorship in Nicaragua, and Iran is looking to station Quds forces in Venezuela.
	During a recess for votes, I spoke with a Democratic-ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Congressman Gregory Meeks, and he agreed with his Republican counterparts that it's China, Russia, and Iran, the greatest sources of national security risks in the Western Hemisphere, but disagreed with Republicans' viewpoint that this should be examined through the lens of great power competition.
	Let's listen.
	To say that it's the great power competition, meaning that we're only going to look to stop or to block China, so the interest is not our friends and our allies in the continent.
	It's only about China.
	So, yes, we want to compete with China.
	But the reason what we want to do is to make sure that we're doing the right thing in our hemisphere and for the countries in our hemisphere.
	While some Republicans suggested military support to close down the Darien Gap in between Colombia and Panama to stem the flow of migrants north, others, like Democratic Congressman Jonathan Jackson, suggested having closer ties with the governments of Cuba and Venezuela.
	It is no longer acceptable that we have the poorest nation in the world off of our shores.
	So, let me get this straight.
	By the way, wait, just... When has Cuba been the poorest nation in the world?
	And Haiti's not?
	Don't make me play an African news clip.
	This whole thing is...
	So they're making it about China.
	That's what I find interesting.
	Well, the opportunity is here.
	The opportunity to get people to do stuff or agree to stuff or agree to some massive bill passing of money is here because people are worried.
	They hear, oh, Russia, Cuba, Cuban Missile Crisis, atomic sub, which has nothing to do with armaments, but atomic sub.
	By the way, what sub run by the United States, Russia, or pretty much any major power is not nuclear?
	Fire up the diesel engines!
	I mean, really?
	So it's, it's all, this is a game on a vast scale, and China's in on it.
	You know, at this point, Russia's in on it too.
	This is great.
	Well, we've said this before, that Russia is somehow in on some of the action going on in Africa.
	Yeah.
	We're not playing any African clips, by the way, so nobody has to quit the show.
	I do have an African clip.
	Oh no, but you're gonna ruin it for everybody!
	It's a good one.
	Uh, we'll play it.
	All right.
	African News, everybody.
	Stand by.
	You can come back in one minute and 36 seconds.
	Shiluba is preparing his latest video.
	This influencer uses social media to get visibility and promote his dance lessons.
	But until now, he had never been paid by the platforms.
	There has to be an incentive for me to go through all that hassle.
	I'm more incentivized to push and make my content more high quality.
	to find out there's a benefit.
	From now on, Shiluba will be paid on his mobile phone.
	Authorities negotiated with META directly.
	Kenya is hoping to create revenue through digital content.
	Around 20% of the population uses social media.
	More and more young people see this as an opportunity.
	It's a bit late because we've been making content for a while now.
	I think with financial support a lot of people would be a lot more confident and encouraged to join the content creator space.
	But experts are warning that the sector is not sufficiently regulated in Kenya.
	How are they going to equate the kind of pay that content creators are able to make?
	And we already know that the algorithms are not fair.
	They are skewed toward the global north and not the global south.
	So there are a lot of shifts and changes that will need to happen So here's how I envision this meeting... Worst clip ever!
	Not really, because here's how I envision the meeting going at Metta.
	payment received by content creators on some social media platforms with an equal number of views an american earns 10 times more than an african so here's how i envision this meeting worst clip ever here not really because here's how i envision the meeting going at meta hey we need to be more more dance videos like tiktok does Hey, you know, those Africans, they dance pretty good.
	And they know how to pound a drum.
	And they're cheap.
	We can pay them one-tenth.
	Let's go do a deal in Kenya.
	I mean, what else could it be?
	I like the idea of using cheap African labor.
	Yeah, totally.
	It's cheap, man.
	Yeah, these guys are great.
	Look at them dance.
	I can just see it.
	That's the most cynical thing you've ever said on this show.
	No, I'll take it.
	They probably say, look at those jungle bunnies dance.
	They're great.
	Tenth of the price.
	Best price.
	That's how those people think in Silicon Valley.
	You know it.
	You know it.
	They're horrible.
	They'll do anything, anything, anything.
	They will do anything to make a buck.
	Or the gouge.
	They're all gougers at heart.
	The gouge.
	They will, the gouge.
	I guess we are kind of trying to... Since we're discussing some of this stuff, that type of internationalism, I think we should just play these clips, which is the China EV problem in Europe.
	Yeah, yes.
	They raised the tariffs, I understand.
	Well, they're trying to stop the flow, but they can't.
	The European Union said today that it would impose tariffs of up to 38% on Chinese electric vehicles coming into the bloc.
	The decision follows Washington's tariff hikes on Chinese EVs set at 100%.
	The Commission has reached out to the Chinese authorities to discuss these findings and explore possible ways for resolving the issues identified.
	The Commission has also pre-disclosed today the level of provisional countervailing duties it would impose on imports of battery electric vehicles from China.
	Mm-hmm.
	Because, you know, we don't have the the Ukraine minerals yet, so we got to slow that down.
	Well, the thing is, of course, is that you're demanding all these EV, you're demanding the EV market to be increased by nutty amounts, unsustainable amounts, and then you bitch and moan because the Chinese are providing the need that you demanded?
	I'm just asking a rhetorical question.
	Yeah, I don't know.
	It's just China hate, I guess.
	Here we go with part two of that series.
	The Vice President of the EU Commission said China's unfair trade practices have injured European automakers.
	The bloc is now trying to discuss solutions with Chinese authorities.
	Last year, the EU bloc imported over $11 billion worth of Chinese electric cars.
	EU automakers can't compete with China's significantly lower prices.
	EU leaders raised concerns about Beijing's unfair subsidies last week.
	The Chinese Commerce Minister dismissed their accusations.
	Last October, the EU Commission launched an anti-subsidy investigation into China's EV supply chain.
	Yeah, I had a... I think I had a clip about that as well, but not from NTD.
	I have it... Hold on a second.
	Yes, I have.
	The European sounding clip.
	Several media outlets including the Financial Times and the Guardian have reported that the European Commission should notify car makers this Wednesday that it will provisionally apply additional duties of up to 25% on imported Chinese electric vehicles starting next month.
	This will come as the EU has concluded its probe into whether or not Chinese companies are benefiting from an unfair advantage.
	The move would increase import duties from 10% currently to 35%, so far off the 100% duties applied by the United States in recent weeks.
	In terms of impact, the Kiel Institute, an economic think tank, has calculated that a 20% increase in tariffs would lead to a 25% drop in imports.
	Based off of last year's numbers, this would mean that 4 billion euros worth of Chinese EV imports would be erased.
	The Think Tank concludes that this will be offset by an increase in domestic production and a lower volume of exports as well, which would likely mean higher prices for consumers.
	It's amazing.
	Consumers don't even want them anymore.
	It's wild.
	There's Teslas racking up everywhere.
	They've got a big, big supply glut of Teslas.
	It's actually, in a weird way, I'd like to take this to Trump for a second because he had something to say about this at his Vegas speech.
	I don't know if you saw the Vegas speech.
	I did not.
	I saw excerpts, but I did not watch their speech.
	Here's a little intro from Mika Brzezinski.
	So while President Biden was saluting our veterans over the weekend, attending dinners with important allies, and doing a speech on the world stage, Donald Trump was delivering a campaign speech in Vegas.
	In sweltering heat yesterday, Trump dealt with teleprompter issues throughout the afternoon, causing him to go off script.
	So, that means... Heaven forbid!
	Well, this is kind of interesting.
	Let's listen to his little intro about his dissatisfaction with the teleprompter.
	He just came up.
	Are the teleprompters not working, sir?
	Not even a little bit!
	Great job!
	And then I don't pay the company that does it, right?
	And then I end up with a story Trump doesn't pay.
	I don't pay contractors that do a shitty job.
	And that's a shitty job.
	That's a shitty joke.
	You can't read a word.
	But you know what?
	It usually ends up that the speech is better.
	It's crazy.
	So, he says it usually ends up the speech is better, and then he, of course, has to throw this one in.
	Could you imagine if Biden was up?
	He's no good with a teleprompter.
	He's the worst I've seen.
	But could you imagine if the teleprompters went off?
	Here's Biden.
	He's like, oh!
	He wouldn't even say anything because he's incapable.
	He'd probably go, pause, you know, pause.
	How about when he's reading the teleprompter and then they say, pause, meaning, you know, maybe you'll get about three people clapping, and he goes, pause.
	No, he'd just walk off the stage like this, oh, teleprompter, oh.
	Anyone who's watched any of these things knows what he's doing there.
	He's doing his impression of Biden.
	But I have to say, he was not great without the teleprompter.
	He was annoyed, it seems, that he did have something that he wanted on the prompter.
	I don't know why.
	Well, the prompter didn't work at all, so none of his jokes, none of his bits, nothing was ready.
	So then he goes into a whole Battery story, you know, the kind of to combat the stupidity of EVs and, by the way, the EPA, it really is forcing U.S.
	automakers down this road, you know, by saying, well, you have to have, you know, your emissions can only be so much and, you know, by 2026 and, you know, to make cars, internal combustion engines practically unusable.
	Use a bike!
	So Trump goes into this battery thing, which I think he lost it.
	So we have a country that's in trouble.
	We're going to end the mandate on electric one day.
	They want to make all boats, too.
	I went to a boat company in South Carolina.
	The boat.
	I said, how is it?
	He said, it's a problem, sir.
	They want us to make all electric boats.
	These are boats that are from 16 to 35 or so feet.
	Fishing boats, leisure boats.
	Beautiful company in South Carolina.
	Beautiful.
	Guy's been doing it for 50 years.
	He sells hundreds of boats every couple of months.
	I mean, really fantastic guy.
	And they use the mercury engines and different engines in the back.
	No problem.
	They want to take that out.
	They want to make it all electric.
	He said, the problem is the boat is so heavy, it can't float.
	I said, that sounds like a problem.
	He said, also it can't go fast because of the weight.
	And they want to now have a 50-mile or a 70-mile radius.
	You have to go out 70 miles before you can really start the boat up.
	And you go out at 2 knots.
	That's essentially almost like 2 miles an hour.
	I said, how long does it take you to get out there?
	Many hours.
	And then you're allowed to go around for 10 minutes, but you have to come back because the batteries only last for a very short period of time.
	So this is all off script, clearly, and he's not bringing home any points, you know, he's not punching the way he normally does.
	And I think, really, in this last clip, it just shows that he does need, he does need some prompter.
	So I said, let me ask you a question.
	And he said, nobody ever asks this question.
	And it must be because of MIT, my relationship to MIT.
	Very smart.
	He goes, what is that?
	What is his relationship to MIT?
	Epstein?
	What is that?
	What is he doing?
	Epstein wasn't at MIT.
	Epstein funded MIT.
	Yeah, but he wasn't... I'm just saying, what is Trump doing here?
	MIT kicked you out.
	I don't know, this is just a shark gag.
	Yes, MIT kicked you out.
	Ever since that happened, MIT is lame.
	They're no good.
	I say, what would happen if the boat sank from its weight, and you're in the boat, and you have this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery's now underwater, and there's a shark that's approximately 10 yards over there.
	By the way, a lot of shark attacks lately, do you notice that?
	A lot of shark... By the way, his uncle was at MIT, that's true, and apparently got all of Tesla's secrets.
	I watched some guys justifying it today.
	Well, they weren't really that angry.
	They bit off the young lady's leg because of the fact that they were not hungry, but they misunderstood who she was.
	These people are crazy.
	He said, there's no problem with sharks.
	They just didn't really understand a young woman swimming now who really got decimated.
	He's losing it here.
	And other people, too.
	A lot of shark attacks.
	So I said, so there's a shark ten yards away from the boat.
	Ten yards.
	Do I get electrocuted if the boat is sinking, water goes over the battery, the boat is sinking?
	Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted?
	Or do I jump over by the shark and not get electrocuted?
	Because I will tell you, he didn't know the answer.
	He said, you know, nobody's ever asked me that question.
	I said, I think it's a good question.
	I think there's a lot of electric current coming through that water.
	But you know what I'd do if there was a shark or you get electrocuted?
	I'll take electrocution every single time.
	I'm not getting near the shark.
	What?
	That's... He lost it, man.
	He really did.
	He's like, I'm gonna get electrocuted.
	No, the thing might catch fire.
	But... This is weird.
	That was not good.
	That was not a good appearance.
	Well, since you brought it up as part of the prompter going out, because I don't think he... I mean, he does read from the prompter, and when he does, you can tell.
	But I think he might use the prompter as a just a... Crutch, as a crutch, as a bullet box.
	No, as a crib sheet for his jokes.
	You know, I used to, when I gave a lot of public speeches, I would always have just a bunch of note cards, and then I started roaming off topic, I would look down and say, oh, I could do that.
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	But you have it taped to the stage.
	So you end up with at least some organizational structure.
	Yeah, but this was not a good day for him.
	Not a good day.
	He might have been distracted.
	Back to the China and EVs and the rest of it.
	I have a bunch of analysis clips, but I want to just play the EV one, which is China Trade Analysis.
	This guy, he's introducing clip one, but I'm not going to play clip one.
	I'm going to just play clip four.
	Now zooming out a bit when it comes to these EV tariffs, these are aimed at protecting industries from cheap Chinese imports.
	This is because Europe is a top destination for Chinese EVs.
	Now the Rhodium Group think tank notes that Chinese EV imports to the EU topped 11 billion dollars last year.
	Now the EU is also set to investigate Chinese solar and wind products.
	But it also needs those products to hit its green energy commitments by 2035.
	How do you see the EU balancing this?
	Well, there's going to have to be a real balancing, as you say, on these green energy targets.
	Most of them are completely unrealistic.
	For one thing, the power grid can't Sustain the number of electronic electric vehicles that these targets are calling for There's a big disconnect between reality and these targets so from that standpoint I would Essentially reject the idea that that they need to reach these targets.
	It's it's completely unrealistic to try to Do so and it's going to be Tremendously damaging to the European economy should these targets stay in place through 2035.
	So let's take stock.
	And where is the 500,000 charging stations we're supposed to have that Biden promised in 2019?
	Let's take stock.
	So we have weakened the dollar as the reserve currency of the world.
	We have forced Russia, by kicking them off the system, to work directly with China and trade in, I guess, Juan or Yen or whatever, Juan with China for Russia's oil.
	We have somehow pissed off the Saudis enough that they're now selling directly to China in the Juan.
	We have made everybody worried about putting money into our system because, let's face it, we'll steal it.
	We are collapsing our energy infrastructure by trying to hook it up to a whole bunch of batteries.
	I mean, this is the perfect moment to let Trump win.
	Let him deal with it, because this has all gone awry.
	And we're just funding war and death and destruction everywhere.
	Does that sum it up?
	I think this is as good as you can do.
	You know what?
	Trump should be announcing his VP pick.
	This is the time.
	Now he needs to do that.
	This will get him back in the cycle.
	But I have no idea at this point who's even in the running.
	There's four or five people.
	I would like to see...
	I would like to see Byron Donalds.
	I think he's the most, he's just a terrific, fiery guy.
	The black guy who's a representative from, he's a congressman from Florida.
	He's terrific, he's sharp, fast.
	But I'm now leaning to, as a prediction, I'm leaning to Rubio.
	What?
	Rubio.
	Yeah, you start watching Rubio and you're going to start seeing the potential for the next VP is going to be Rubio.
	Really?
	Yeah.
	I mean, he can speak Spanish and that's the only real benefit.
	I like the fact that Kristi Noem, if you've been following her, she's been said, you know, I could probably, you know, she'd have a woman and she's trying to thrown herself in even though she's sabotaged herself.
	So that's bull crap.
	Shooting the dog.
	She doesn't want to be devised, but now she's making it sound as though she did.
	And I don't know what that's all about, but she's doing that.
	She should just shut up.
	You really think Rubio is a serious possibility, huh?
	Yeah.
	Don't you think a lot of people will go, ugh, have the same visceral reaction I had?
	Like, oh, little Marco Rubio?
	You watch.
	They're grooming him.
	You can just see it happening.
	Now, there's one other thing that's going on that we should maybe mention, which is the G7.
	Well, I already mentioned the G7.
	Well, I mean, we should, but not the particular thing I have in this clip.
	No.
	There's a new term, an economic term, and this is not the best example of its use, but I have it in this clip, and then I can discuss some of this.
	I heard it elsewhere, and this is going to be used, I think this is going to be one of the major terms that we're going to have to deal with, which is the term spillover.
	The U.S.
	expanding sanctions on Russia to stop countries like China from sustaining Russia's war machine.
	This comes as President Biden heads to Italy for the G7 summit, where he'll ramp up pressure on China's unfair trade practices.
	NTD's Iris Tao has more from Bari, Italy.
	President Biden has now landed here in Italy where he will talk with G7 leaders about ramping up pressure on China and Russia.
	And right before the summit here tomorrow, the U.S.
	Treasury Department announced a slew of new sanctions aimed at stopping countries like China from supplying Russia with equipment and materials used in the war against Ukraine.
	Here's the White House detailing those sanctions.
	Watch.
	We have also been clear with the PRC that we reserve the right to take action against particular companies and entities that we believe are engaged in supporting Russia's war machine through the provision of inputs, whether it's industrial materials or microelectronics or UAV parts or whatever it may be.
	And we have put our money where our mouth is.
	Beijing has been ramping up its support for Moscow, including by selling it dual-use computer chips made using U.S.
	technology.
	Wednesday's actions widen existing sanctions to target those goods.
	In addition to China's support for Russia, G7 leaders here will also address China's unfair trade practices.
	We will confront China's non-market policies that are leading to harmful global spillovers.
	I'm glad they finally mentioned it at the end of the clip.
	Well, that's the problem, of course.
	But there was one analyst that I listened to and he says that the Chinese policy of spillover, which is overproducing, it reminded me of the first time I went to Korea, is that I bought a bunch of, there was a bunch of these stores that sold what I think amounted to spillover.
	And that's why I think a lot of watches you get and different kinds of luggage and other things you get.
	Do you mean stuff that fell off the back of the truck?
	Is that basically what we're talking about?
	No, it means purposely overproducing.
	So you have a run of $10,000, and it goes to $12,000.
	But you pay for $10,000, and you have $2,000 run over, or now the term is spill over.
	And they claim that China's whole mechanism for foreign trade is to sell the spill over to foreign countries, Europe, United States, and elsewhere.
	Everything's a spillover.
	And the way they were presenting this in a couple of these clips that I don't have, It really made a lot of sense to me because I've always noticed that China overproduces stuff.
	If you're doing book printing, for example, it costs about the same amount to print 10,000 copies as 9,000 copies.
	So if you pay for 9,000, you have 1,000 copies left over and there's no expense involved.
	Yeah, it's all profit.
	It's profit for you, for the manufacturer.
	I just find that the term, which I've never heard before, is starting to be used now, and it was in that clip at the very end, but it was, it's, you watch for this term, it's going to be used, you're going to hear it, I'm sure of it.
	Do I play the second clip here?
	Yeah, you can play the second clip.
	And on Ukraine, Biden is set to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday and sign a new security agreement to pledge America's long-term support to the country.
	Another focus here among G7 leaders is to discuss sending Ukraine a massive loan using profits generated by frozen Russian assets.
	President Biden will also use this opportunity to amplify his view that America needs to stand with allies and bolster democracy.
	All right.
	Yeah.
	That was meaningless, but you already played that, basically.
	Yeah, it was.
	But democracy is at play, even though there's been no elections in Ukraine.
	Well, how about this?
	How about we just make it so that we need to bring in the Great Reset?
	Trump's the perfect guy for that.
	Yes, we'll have it all, just rug pull.
	Rug pull!
	I'm telling you, I can feel it in my water.
	We got a rug pull coming.
	I don't know what that is.
	We're going to pull the rug on everything.
	Everything's going to collapse.
	Oh, a rug pull.
	Yeah, rug pull.
	Yeah.
	I'm still waiting.
	Only one company has to say, you know, that AI is not so great.
	And then the whole stock market collapses.
	Everyone's in turmoil, hair on fire.
	Trump comes.
	Yes, yes.
	And then, you know, reset.
	Well, we need some kind of, I don't know.
	Digital currency.
	Yeah.
	Ultimately, everyone's doing it, except us.
	Before we take a break here, this is one clip.
	I just love this in Chicago.
	The Chicagoans, particularly black Chicago, is so mad at Biden.
	They are so mad.
	And this is still the immigration.
	But somehow he'll still win!
	Well, this is, so even though he'll be pre-nominated before the convention, which is in Chicago, I think they want to see a replay of the 60, what was it, 64 convention?
	No, was it 68?
	What was the big fight?
	68, I believe.
	Yeah, where the cops were clubbing people.
	The Democrat cops under a Democrat regime, Mayor Daley, all Democrats, of course that's Chicago, were beating up Democrat kids.
	Well, it'll be even better when they beat up black Democrat kids.
	This is going to be hilarious.
	Oh yes, sir.
	Black Americans.
	We're not African American.
	We're not people of color.
	We're not black and brown, minority, BIPOC.
	None of that.
	No, none of that.
	Strict.
	This is about our people demanding the resources.
	Just as you're giving these people, these newcomers who are walking into this country.
	Newcomers.
	And since this is correct, how do you take a new group of people that have paid no taxes, can't vote, and you put them in front of the voters?
	I'm not going to pay them no damn tax.
	And so we say this to you, Mayor, Governor, President, if you think that they're that powerful, that you have the accurate answer to them over us, Then you tell them to vote for you in these next elections.
	That's right.
	You tell them to support your Democratic National Convention.
	And we're going to show you how we feel about the Democratic National Convention.
	That's right.
	Turn it up!
	Thank you.
	If you think you're going to have a peaceful Democratic National Convention in the city of Chicago while our people are starving... That's right.
	Stay tuned!
	Stay tuned!
	We will!
	Stay tuned!
	Yeah, we'll see.
	I think we've had seven years.
	You know, Trump came in.
	It really wasn't great.
	Although everyone remembers it being great.
	But, you know, four years of Trump, three years of Biden.
	Those were the good years.
	We've got seven bad years coming.
	That's my prediction.
	Particularly if Marco Rubio is vice president.
	Can you imagine that?
	Yeah, I can.
	What a laughing stock.
	Oh, I can't believe America put that guy there.
	You just, you're a hater.
	I am a hater!
	But I am definitely not a Rubio fan.
	No way.
	No way.
	Well, the irony, of course, to the Rubio, uh...
	Being vice president would be his previous comments about the small hands.
	Yes, and the water, the water was splashing the water everywhere.
	And then, of course, then we get... He's also, but he's also in the category of Macron and Zelensky.
	He was a dancer.
	Dancer, yes, a dancer.
	And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage.
	Say, in the morning, to you, the man who put the seas in the Cuban Missile Crisis, Part 2, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DuBois!
	Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry.
	In the morning, there's ships, sea boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water.
	The day was nice out there.
	In the morning.
	Hello, trolls.
	They're all dead.
	Let me cut.
	Stop moving!
	I gotta count.
	1584. I think we're down a bit.
	1584.
	Yeah, that's the African clip.
	No, believe me.
	It was it was the NTD clips.
	You're killing me.
	There's no dynamics in the NTD reporting.
	They got good information.
	But there's no dynamics.
	1668 was so we're down about 190 90 trolls.
	so we're down about 100, 90, 90 trolls.
	It's okay because those that are here are the ones that matter.
	That's all we care about.
	And they're in the Troll Room at TrollRoom.io.
	You can join them by going to TrollRoom.io and we send out a badge signal on social media.
	You can just log in there and troll along and listen to the live stream which is 24-7 or try the Fountain App.
	There's one for you.
	Try Fountain.
	And Fountain has something interesting.
	If you want to prepare for the coming global reset just by listening to your favorite podcast, you can earn Bitcoin.
	That'll save you and your family.
	Guaranteed.
	I promise you.
	You'll also get alerted on that and other apps at podcastapps.com when we go live or when any of the shows that you subscribe to go live.
	And within 90 seconds, you know, it happened again on Thursday.
	Six hours after we published the show, it had still not shown up on Apple.
	Six hours.
	Six hours?
	Yeah, six hours.
	What does it take so long?
	Well, you know, glitch.
	It's a glitch.
	You know, they're using their own system.
	They're not using the podcasting 2.0 system.
	They could.
	I mean, it's available to them.
	They can use the PodPing and they can pick it up, but no.
	They're too busy putting their women in horrible pants.
	That's what they're focused on.
	You need to look at that.
	You need to look at these pants.
	It was really a turn-off.
	Like, is that what you're doing, Apple?
	We're moving into the second half of our 16th year here on No Agenda.
	Sounds crazy but it's true.
	And the community grows even, I mean just, it's such a great community of people.
	Look at the meetups.
	Go to a meetup and see what I'm talking about.
	I mean the fact that I'm just, I happen to be showing up in Amsterdam and they've got standing room only at this point at the meetup.
	And these are people who, honestly, have you ever... I know you're not a Telegram guy, and neither am I. I actually kind of despise Telegram.
	It's a very annoying product.
	But if you just look for no agenda, there must be 15 or 16 different no agenda groups.
	And people are in there, and so we have the Texas group, we have the... I think there's two Dutch groups, you have the general group, and there's all kinds of... Is there a group that believes in donations?
	Yes, I think they do.
	I think they do believe in donations.
	But they sit there and they converse with you, and it's really friendly.
	You know, I think there's also admins and moderators.
	So if you're not friendly, you get kicked out.
	But it just seems like the vibe is nice on these Telegram groups.
	I don't like it because you open up Telegram and then you see the groups and there's 5,000 new messages.
	Well, I'm not going to scroll through that.
	And if you turn on alerts, like bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
	It's like you're getting alerted all the time.
	But people love it.
	And that's our people, John.
	So love them.
	Love them for that reason.
	I don't know who they are.
	Well, there are people.
	That's what you say.
	No, there are people.
	I know they are.
	They are our people.
	And they support the show with time, talent, and treasure in multiple languages.
	Time and talent is always expressed by hitting people in the mouth, getting people to listen, telling people to support the show.
	What is the rationale for Telegram?
	Russian spying.
	Oh, okay.
	It kind of started as a chat app, I guess.
	It just reminds me of some sort of a glorified Usenet, modernized.
	Not a bad analogy, actually.
	Not structured, so Usenet, at least you had a structure, alt, dot, you know.
	et cetera, et cetera.
	So you could kind of, you could go into the top level group and know where you were, where you were and then go into subgroups.
	Of course, you know, using that updated overnight.
	So it wasn't, maybe that was even better.
	You know, you had to wait until the next day to see the, the flame wars spark.
	But in that regard, you know, and there was also... Were those moderated, the Usenet groups?
	I can't remember.
	Was there any moderation?
	All I remember from that era was, you can't put advertising on Usenet!
	Oh yeah, I remember I showed up.
	Hi, I set up MTV.com.
	You're a horrible person!
	You're bringing commercialization to the internet!
	Go away!
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	I got a lot of hate.
	And they were right!
	In hindsight, they were probably right.
	In hindsight, yeah.
	Too late now.
	Yeah, it is too late.
	Our artists, of course, are always there to show their true talent, and they obviously put a lot of time into it.
	You can find that at noagendaartgenerator.com.
	We want to thank The artist who brought us the artwork for episode 1667, titled The Heavy Tail, which, by the way, I found out is an actual term in statistics.
	It's kind of a bullcrap term, in my opinion, but it is a term.
	The Heavy Tail.
	And it was Nestworks who we chose for the artwork.
	Nestworks did a nice piece.
	It was the Climate Cafe.
	So it's a cup of coffee with a flaming, flames come out of the guy's mouth and the little earth, flat earth on top of the coffee cup.
	It popped for sure.
	It kind of popped.
	I think we liked it for that reason.
	And there really wasn't much else to choose from, was there?
	Do you remember what... That's the real reason you just named it right there.
	Let me see what else we had.
	There are a lot of people with call your APAC guy.
	I kind of like the welding arts from Dame Kenny Ben.
	You didn't like it.
	Let's see.
	I also like Disease X, also a Kenny Ben piece.
	She is, of course, a Dutch master.
	But that did not pass the gruesome test for you.
	No, I just didn't like it.
	It wasn't even that gruesome, just a grimacing X. It's just boring.
	The one that we both like though, that we know that was only put there just to get us to talk about it, is Darren O'Neill with the kids disturbing art.
	Which turns out to be the funniest piece.
	Yeah, it was.
	We both agree.
	He's a stupid looking AI generated kid with a dumb look on his face.
	And drawing a devil.
	Now why did we not choose that?
	Because that's the gruesome thing.
	The devil was gruesome.
	We're not extolling the virtues or otherwise of the devil on our show.
	Okay.
	All right.
	We're not doing it.
	I mean, you wanted to do stuff like that.
	I don't know why.
	I did not want to do that.
	No, I did not.
	I actually wanted the welding piece.
	You thought that was too sparse or whatever you thought.
	It doesn't have any, nobody would get it.
	It's impossible.
	And it's not even, what kind of welding are we dealing with here?
	Soldering gun or something.
	I'm not sure what this... That was more, yeah, it was more, yeah, it looked like a razor, actually.
	If you look at like a red razor, yeah, right.
	There were some issues.
	Thank you, artists.
	We love all of you.
	We appreciate you.
	And of course, Dreb Scott, the Bruce Wayne of Podcasting 2.0, diligently puts the chapters together after every single show, which is another great example of time and talent, especially time, because he listens to the show.
	As he's listening, he has to make little chapter markers, then he has to go find art, and then he has to put that in there.
	And he gets it done within a few hours after publishing.
	That's really appreciated.
	No, that's not how it works.
	How many times do I have to say that you can't rely on Silicon Valley stuff?
	that, which is what you really want to be using.
	Don't submit yourself to Apple.
	Waiting six hours for the show to update.
	And then people are posting, well, the show, you didn't upload it to Apple.
	No, that's not how it works.
	How many times do I have to say that you can't rely on Silicon Valley stuff?
	Stop it.
	Support the independent guys.
	It's...
	If something's wrong, you can reach out to them directly.
	Now to thank the people who brought us the value, the treasure value portion.
	We'd like to thank our executive and associate executive producers right here in the show in a special segment.
	We read your note if it's $200 and above, $300 and above, we read your note and you're an executive producer, otherwise you're an associate executive producer.
	But everybody who supports us with any amount, and that's how Value for Value works, is what can you afford that really, for you, feels like this is what it's worth to me?
	That amount, send it in, doesn't matter where you are, you're a producer and we appreciate everyone who does that.
	And we kick it off with Sir Stickton from Houston, Texas.
	$1,000, and it's a switcheroo right off the bat.
	He says, this is for my dear wife, Betty, and this will make her a dame.
	This donation is also in recognition of her birthday, which is June 6, so it's a little late, he says, with a shrug emoji.
	She thoroughly enjoys your podcast.
	She's a Fox News addict.
	Oh, good.
	I'm glad we're balancing that.
	And your commentary from other news sources around the world gives her a little more perspective.
	I refer to her fox obsession as political porn.
	I love her in spite of her proclivities.
	And she still refers to you guys as the boys.
	Fried spam sandwiches and old fashions at the round table, please.
	Sir Stickton of the Westside Villages.
	Well, how nice is that?
	So, Betty.
	I guess it's gonna be Betty Stickton.
	I'm just guessing.
	I guess so.
	It would be her dame name.
	Her dame name is what will be used, of course.
	I should have known better, of course.
	Thank you, Sir Stickton, and Betty is on the list.
	Meanwhile, we got Sam of the Bear Grass in Louisville, Kentucky. 35426.
	Today, June 13th, is my 40th birthday, and after... I wonder if he's on the list.
	Check it.
	And after years of monthly recurring donations, this executive producership brings me to knighthood.
	Please knight me, Sir Sam of the Bear Grass.
	I'd also like to say Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.
	Excuse me.
	I lost my dad two years ago to a sudden cardiac event.
	And Adam, I am working on forgiveness.
	Very good.
	John, my dad had you beat.
	Not only did he never own a smartphone, he only had home internet when he was forced to work remotely.
	That is pretty, pretty, uh, yeah, that would be, uh, yes, definitely.
	I still have a phone.
	It's just in the drawer.
	As soon as, as soon as in-person resumed, he got rid of it.
	Good for him.
	Yeah, excellent.
	Bourbon and Blunts at the roundtable, please.
	Jingles, F-35 scream followed by a Trump Space Force.
	And he is indeed on the birthday list.
	I'm gonna do him, well, he wants him in that order.
	I'll do him in that order.
	We've got karma.
	Space Force brings us to Anthony.
	Actually, just as an aside.
	Yes.
	So I've been looking for my cache of challenge coins, which I haven't seen for years.
	Oh, okay.
	So Jay found them.
	Oh.
	So I've got all the challenge coins.
	I sent one challenge coin off to one of our producers.
	Oh, that's nice.
	And Jay found it, and I realized I have a space for it.
	I don't know how many of these you have, too, because most of them, when two came in, I'd try to get one over to you.
	I definitely have one.
	A Space Force one.
	Yeah, I got the Space Force, but I've also got, I know there's one I have that I'm sure you don't have it.
	We both have NSA Challenge Coins, CIA, various State Department Challenge Coins, but the one I'm pretty sure you don't have is, I have a KGB Challenge Coin.
	Oh no, I don't have that.
	What are you, how did you get that?
	Yes, and I'm trying to remember who sent it to me, but some guy collected it somewhere along the way, and yeah.
	But what got me, because I'm going through these coins, including the No Agenda coins, is that why is the KGB having a challenge coin in the first place?
	It's such a Western thing.
	Well, all I know is... I found it weird.
	All I know is I sent you a manufacturer of challenge coins for the Rubbleizer donation, and you sent an email back and said, how about a tote bag?
	Yeah, I did, didn't I?
	What's wrong with you?
	Tote bag?
	No!
	I just don't see... I think the challenge coin...
	Bad is over, personally.
	No, it's never over.
	It's never over.
	You went searching for them.
	You just sent someone one because they're always on vogue.
	And if not, we're bringing them back.
	Anthony Cottrell is in Garland, Texas.
	$350.94.
	Might be a $333.33 plus the fees.
	Thank you very much.
	This message is brought to you by Visor, the completely fictional pharmaceutical company found in my new book, DiviDi.
	Available on Amazon due to limited choices in publishing.
	A teen slash young adult novel covering topics such as transhumanism, viruses, and media lies.
	As an OTR truck driver, I greatly appreciate your deconstruction of the media.
	And for inspiring me to do my part in hitting people in the mouth.
	Big shout out to Stevie B, who introduced me to the best podcast in the universe.
	Please de-douche me.
	You've been de-douched.
	He says, this is my first donation after about seven months of consistent listening.
	Welcome to the club, brother.
	Thank you both for speaking the truth and encouraging others to do the same.
	And he says, Jesus is king!
	And he would like as a jingle, I love my truck and I love what I do.
	That's your department.
	Yeah.
	Oh, here it is.
	I have it.
	I found it.
	I love my job and I love what I do.
	Thank you very much, Anthony.
	Appreciate it.

	Appreciate all the insights and laughs.
	Ron.
	Zachary Crater is in Mission Viejo, California.

	One of our favorite donation amounts.
	Love that.
	Podfather, forgive me for I have sinned.
	I have been listening for well over ten years.
	And this is my first donation!
	Hey, it doesn't matter.
	As long as you show up.
	That's fine by us.
	I love my job and I love what I do.
	I have previously quieted my guilty conscience with the knowledge that I have hit many people in the mouth down line, but to my knowledge only one, executive producer Aaron Borroquez, has ever donated.
	So I'm gonna give him a de-douching first.
	You've been de-douched.
	Please hit some of my downline with a douchebag.
	Dave R. Douchebag!
	Rusty R. Douchebag!
	Jeremy K. Douchebag!
	And Matt S. Douchebag!
	As well as my co-host Andy McCraw.
	Douchebag!

	So please de-douche me, done, and shoot me some podcasting karma.
	I'd love or resist wee much, and oh my god, did you see that juice?
	If possible, thank you for your courage, grace, peace, and cheers.
	Zachary Crater!
	Oh my gosh!
	Can you see that juice?
	You've got karma.
	Maggie's up.
	She's in Garibaldi, Oregon.
	She came with 333.33.
	And she says, Uncle John and Uncle Adam, thank you for continuing to put out a product that all shows should aspire towards.
	Well, they could, but it's so hard.
	It's such a grind.
	It's terrible.
	In honesty, professionalism... Oh, I'm sorry.
	Let me rephrase the reading of this.
	Yes, please do.
	That all shows should aspire towards in honesty, in professionalism, and in quality of product and sound.
	And you do it live!
	Do it live!
	As might Moe say, you deserve these flowers while you're still around to appreciate them.

	Just in case.
	Love is definitely lit, Maggie of the Upper Left Coast.
	You've got... Karma.
	Then we have two 333.33 donations from Chap Williams, which is very much appreciated.
	I have no notes.
	Do you have a note from Chap?
	I looked everywhere and I did not find anything.
	No, I don't see anything here.
	So he'll get a double up karma for that.
	You've got... karma.
	I should mention he's from Edmond, Oklahoma.
	And then also there's Sir Plane Crash in St.
	Paul, Minnesota, came in with $3.33, $3.33.
	Also no note, you might as well give him a double up, Karma.
	You've got... Karma.
	Then we have our, one of our Dutch knights, Sir Goes Kadaver from Doorn in the Netherlands, $3.33.32.
	ITM, John and Adam.
	3.32 ITM, John and Adam and Ja.
	Okay.
	Time to donate!
	I use my no agenda degree of Doctor of Philosophy or more accurately my PhD in Media Deconstruction or Media Nihilism to change careers from the highly subsidized hydrogen construction sector to the corrugated cardboard industry.
	Last week I had a safety training from an Australian family shrink, mind you, in Lahti, in Finland.
	And I hit him in the mouth with my shrunken amygdala.
	He was clearly impressed by the professional appearance of the certificate or my witty answers to his issues.
	The No Agenda Show, value for value.
	Sorry to Linda Liu, Patkin of the Image Makers, Inc., writer of CVs, etc.
	All right, Kjus, thank you.
	Are you coming to the meetup, Kjus?
	Meetup, the big meetup on Saturday.
	Hope you'll be there.
	Big meetup.
	Big meetup.
	Uh, Joep van de Poet in Eindhoven.
	333.3, another, uh, Hollander.
	I started listening after seeing Adam on the Jensen Show.
	Jensen Donation!
	And was hooked immediately.
	Somehow it took until the second donation segment of episode 1666 for over three years of value for value talk to finally get to me.
	We did it!
	It's a grind, man.
	It's a grind.
	All I could think about was donating.
	Donate!
	Donate!
	It dawned on me that I couldn't afford to go to the Amsterdam meetup as a douchebag.
	And finally, I couldn't stand being one any longer either.
	The final confirmation came from Numerology, as I found there's exactly 1,111 days between the show I tuned in, which was 1349 WAPI, and show 1666 WEIRD.
	Weird.
	How about that you, uh, how about that?
	You've taken me from WAPI to weird.
	There's a joke in there somewhere.
	I have some fools.
	I have some fools circle?
	No, he says, I've come fool circle.
	Oh, I've come, uh, uh, pun.
	So here's my donation of 333.3, because 1111 divided by that amount gives you three dot, and he's got an infinite number of threes.
	And when hitting your head to the left, wouldn't you agree that there's the ultimate boob donation?
	Shout out to McLaughlin, the Archduke of Luna, in favor of American boobs.
	That's a good point.
	Thanks for all you do.
	Thanks for all you do.
	Keep up the good work.
	Four more years at least.
	No jingles, just chops, karma, and a relationship karma, please.
	By the way, and I went back and checked, somehow on Sunday's show, you skipped over Kevin McLaughlin's boob donation.
	No, I didn't.
	I checked it.
	I went back and checked.
	And it was, you just skipped it.
	It was just an accident.
	I didn't catch it either.
	Because I'm, you know, I'm grinding away getting everything set up for the meetups and stuff.
	This is a lot of work.
	But I got an email from someone who was very concerned and I thought that was really sweet.
	She said, is everything okay with Kevin?
	Did he not donate?
	I like that!
	Kevin McLaughlin and Linda Lou Patkin and the Gigawatt guy seem to be the keys to the show.
	I'm telling you.
	You've got karma.
	Sorry, I could be wrong.
	I just kind of remember saying something and I had to go back myself and check it out.
	I went back and checked.
	It's okay.
	It happens, but it was just one of those things.
	Yeah, I'm so sorry, Kevin.
	Amy Byrne is in Swannona, North Carolina, 300.
	No bells, whistles, karma, just thanking you.
	Well, thank you, Amy.
	Oh, this is interesting.
	This came in from...
	Daniella Pompo in Los Angeles, California, 300 bucks.
	She says, last time I donated, you chopped my name real good.
	You called me Danella.
	Now, you know my name, Daniella.
	And please job karma to us and shout out to Linda, our favorite Lou Patkin.
	She does a real good job.
	Thanks for the great show.
	Now, I'm looking at her name.
	And it has all the elements of a Hawaiian name, and people don't understand when you pronounce anything, most, this isn't 100% true, but generally speaking, in Hawaii, you pronounce each, if there's two vowels together, you pronounce each one individually.
	So in Hawaii, her name would be Dan-ee-ee-lah.
	And it would be Pom Piu.
	That would be the last name.
	And so I'm thinking, wait a minute, what if she is Hawaiian and I'm pronouncing her name wrong again?
	Well, maybe she should give us a pronunciation guide.
	She never did that.
	Pronunciation guide.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs.
	Utah.
	Karma.
	Here we go with Gigawatt Coffee Roasters in Bensonville, Illinois.
	I'll take this.
	$2.0613.
	I love the dueling tips segment.
	John, your tip wins hands down!
	Oh, man.
	I just got my Hengstenberg vinegar from Amazon and I will say the flavor is excellent with some Pellegrino.
	That's exactly what I use.
	I use sparkling water and this is 13 herb vinegar.
	You know, there used to be a vinegar that Star, the Italian producer, which makes vinegars.
	They used to make a flavored vinegar that was the best thing I've ever had in terms of using it with sparkling water, but it's been discontinued or something.
	I don't know.
	I have an idea.
	Why don't you take some of these vinegar tips and put it in a book?
	Adam, he writes, I am a sucker for a good coffee tip and knew that salt can be used in coffee to cut bitterness, but I did not know it is also thought to bring prosperity.
	Yes.
	Oh, brother.
	However, I prefer my coffee with no bitterness from the start.
	That's why we started Gigawatt.
	For producers who want to try coffee with no bitter taste, visit GigaWatt Coffee Roasters.
	Come and use the code ITM20 for 20% off your order.
	That's GigaWattCoffee.
	I believe they're GigaWattCoffee.com.
	Yes.
	Stay caffeinated, Eli the Coffee Guy.
	Thank you, Eli.
	And I tried the LiveWire Espresso with vodka for... Oh, there you go.
	Yep.
	And I'm still... Did you put salt in it?
	No, I'm still hammered, though.
	That's for sure.
	I'll bet.
	Donald Lipinski, Austin, Texas.
	$200 associate executive producer.
	Special thanks to Adam and John for helping me see the light.
	Also thanks to my buddy Chase Tomlinson for introducing me to No Agenda many years ago.
	I am 44 years old now, and in the 90s as an impressionable youth, I saw Adam on MTV.
	I went to the University of Texas and got indoctrinated, but now I'm back on the right track.
	Beautiful.
	He's listed down here twice with the exact same message.
	Do you think it came in twice?
	This is a spreadsheet glitch.
	Oh, you said the G word.
	Alright, well we'll say it's a glitch.
	And before you move to our next donation, she has a jingle now.
	It's about time.
	Yes.
	Linda Lou Patkin in Lakewood, Colorado.
	200 bucks and this message looks similar to the one she sent last show.
	Jobs karma for a speedier job search.
	Go to ImageMakersInc.com for all your executive resume and job search needs.
	That's Image Makers, Inc.
	with a K. Or find Linda Liu, Duchess of... She's back to Linda Liu.
	Yeah.
	Duchess of Jobs and writer of resumes on the producer list.
	Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, and Jobs.
	Let's vote for Jobs!
	And then we got Vanessa Campbell.
	Actually, it is Vanessa and Mark with a handwritten note.
	Very nice.
	Did it come in as a check, I'm presuming?
	Yeah.
	And it says here, John, you'll be happy to hear this, your newsletter reminded me it's time to donate.
	One person.
	Keep up the good work.
	Mark and Vanessa Campbell, $200.
	Thank you both so very much.
	And thank you to all of our executive and associate executive producers for episode 1,668.
	Your support is highly appreciated.
	We really appreciate any donation we get.
	Those under 50, for reasons of anonymity, thank you so much for your $49.99.
	And anything, particularly the sustaining donations, they're of great importance to us.
	Doesn't matter what you send, as long as you support us with time, talent, and treasure.
	Thanks again to our executive and associate executive producers for $16.68.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Water.
	Order.
	Squirrel.
	Shut up.
	I would like to start off with a Biden clip.
	Biden is an unbelievable liar.
	There's a quote for you.
	But this is not... I think he's also unknowledgeable about certain things.
	Because I've talked about this on the show a dozen times.
	Because I'd visited the Cassius Clay mansion in Kentucky.
	Yes, you have.
	And there's a Henry Clay, very famous.
	He was a very famous politician.
	And so his brother, Cassius, was also very successful.
	And they were both abolitionists.
	There was a story about how a bunch of the sheriff, some locals were going to come and grab him in some incident, it'd be a Civil War incident, but he shot a cannon, which he had in the front at this group filled with... Oh yes, yes, he's shooting the cannon.
	Yes, I remember now, yes.
	So he shot a cannon at these guys and they all dispersed and that was the end of it.
	They didn't want to deal with it.
	So then I heard this Biden clip, which is that some women against firearms or something, and Biden goes on with this particular speech.
	They're so damn important!
	We need you!
	We need you to overcome the unrelenting opposition of the gun lobby, gun manufacturers, so many politicians, when they oppose common sense gun legislation.
	I used to be a law... when I was no longer the Vice President, I became a professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
	Before that, I taught a constitutional law class, and so I taught the Second Amendment.
	There's never been a time that says you can own anything you want.
	Remember, you couldn't own a cannon during the Civil War.
	I want you to think about it.
	How many of you have heard this phrase?
	The blood of liberty!
	Give me a break.
	No, I mean it, seriously.
	And by the way, if they want to take on government, if we get out of line, which they're talking again about, guess what?
	They need F-15s.
	They don't need... Ugh, this old trope again.
	Ugh.
	Now, besides the canon gaffe, I've still been analyzing this.
	No, I'm serious.
	I'm serious.
	No joke.
	When people clap, And it never made any sense to me until recently I realized that comedians, when they're on stage and they tell something extremely funny...
	They get a round of applause.
	Yes.
	So Biden is equating that with laughter.
	Yeah, yeah.
	And he has to correct the audience and say, no, no, I'm serious.
	No joke.
	Because they're clapping for something he said.
	That's the only rationale I can come up with for those lines.
	They're clapping because someone held up the clap sign.
	No, it's because someone has the clap.
	Ooh, okay.
	Alright, I just had to get that out of the way.
	By the way, I have a second half of the show clipped.
	I gotta stop you.
	It is June, and you know what June is?
	I got to stop you.
	I got to stop you because we haven't.
	It is June.
	And you know what June is?
	It's Moloch month where we celebrate pride around the globe.
	And I have some clips of the trans- Moloch month?
	Yeah, that's my new term.
	Okay.
	Yeah, of course.
	Obviously the devil is prideful, so there's pride.
	Is it Gog and Magog?
	Well, they're in there somewhere.
	So I pulled a couple clips from Instagram.
	For your celebrating Moloch month, here's the first one from Washington State.
	Hey internet friends!
	Happy Juneteenth!
	Happy Pride Month!
	Give a gay person in a wheelchair $5 today.
	I just love the opening.
	There's nothing like giving a gay person in a wheelchair some money today.
	Now that we've gotten the formalities out of the way, I just want to relay some uplifting news.
	In response to vandalism problems, Spokane, Washington's Lime, an electric scooter and cycle rental company, is creating a no-go zone around a Pride flag mural crosswalk.
	After three teenagers were detained on June 6th for leaving skid marks on the crosswalk, they were scooting across the pride flag in their little scooters, and that is vandalism to the city of Spokane.
	Just to fill you in.
	Ally, am I right?
	The teenagers faced a first-degree malicious mischief allegation.
	The decision to create a restricted area aims to protect the mural from further damage.
	So, little term in there.
	It's in the road!
	Ally, am I right?
	That's a good one.
	I like that.
	Ally, am I right?
	You could just yell that out, just in a crowded theater.
	Ally, am I right?
	Yeah, it's on the road and these kids for 12 seconds were like popping wheelies and doing little skid marks on the... and they got charged with the class 1 felony or something.
	They got the book thrown at them, arrested and booked and everything for desecrating the mural.
	A fly painted on the road.
	Yeah.
	And then Lime Scooters immediately made it a no-go zone.
	So when you're going towards the mural, it just stops.
	So you can't put skid marks on the mural.
	So that's our first story from Instagram.
	Now a fascinating tidbit.
	Here's something I did not know.
	Did you know that queer and trans people actually experience time completely differently to cishet people?
	It's a concept called queer temporality.
	And it basically has to do with the fact that, historically, as queer and trans people, our lives have started much later, and for a whole bunch of reasons, ended earlier than our cishet counterparts.
	So as a result, our experience of time is compressed.
	Huh?
	Bet you didn't know that, huh?
	Wow.
	Queer temporality.
	That's funny, I have a talk clip.
	I've got a TikTok clip, okay.
	Alright.
	But it's not... Well, I'm still in my rainbow mode here.
	Okay, this should be a clip blitz.
	No, it's not a clip blitz, because this is important.
	The Canadian Cancer Society put out a statement.
	Oh yeah, this is a good one.
	It's very important, this statement they put out.
	A top cancer charity apologized for using the word cervix instead of trans-friendly front hole.
	It's the Canadian Cancer Society.
	They have a webpage that's about cervical cancer.
	And the cervical part of the cervical cancer apparently made the trans Tifa mad.
	And they said that many non-binary people have mixed feelings and they feel distanced from that term.
	And so they apologized for it.
	And they said that they recognize the limitations of the words that we've used and they were sorry that they didn't use the words front hole.
	I'm going to read their statement because I have it here.
	I don't think the clip did it justice.
	We recognize that many trans men and non-binary people may have mixed feelings about or feel distance from words like cervix.
	You may prefer other words such as front hole.
	We recognize the limitations of the words we've used while also acknowledging the need for simplicity.
	Another reason we use words like cervix is to normalize the reality that men can have these body parts too.
	So we're back to confusing what a man and a woman is, which is, I thought we kind of figured that out and we had, you know, we had just agreed that we all understand what that is.
	But no, even federal court will not recognize what a woman is.
	You remember the sorority in Wyoming who wanted to kick out the dude posing as a woman?
	Was it kick her out, him out?
	Yeah, kick him out.
	Or was it not allow them in?
	I think it was kick out.
	But anyway... What was that person doing in the sorority in the first place?
	You have to... I know how these things work.
	You don't just... Somebody just walk up, knock on the door and join.
	You have to be accepted.
	Well, they took it to court and... You have to be voted in.
	They took it to court and the... Well, I think there must have been another law... Let's listen to the clip.
	It's 28 seconds.
	A federal appeals court in Denver has dismissed the appeal of a lawsuit ruling it did not have jurisdiction to hear the case.
	Artemis Langford, who is transgender, joined Kappa Kappa Gamma at the University of Wyoming in 2022.
	Six sorority members claimed it violated the chapter's bylaws, which say, quote, a new member shall be a woman.
	Their case was dismissed in a lower court last year after the judge ruled that the court can't be the one to decide whether that excludes transgender women.
	There you go.
	In other words, that person had to be accepted by vote into the sorority to begin with, and there were a few people in the sorority that objected to it on technical grounds.
	Yes.
	But get out of the sorority!
	If you're gonna let transgenders into the sorority in the first place, whose fault is that?
	It's the sorority's fault!
	No, you are really... Ally, am I right?
	We need to take back some words.
	I mean, this is... Boys, just start by taking back the word gay.
	Yeah, really.
	And even queer.
	The gay guys called, they want their word back.
	That got stolen from them.
	Okay.
	Well, that's it.
	Continue.
	That's it?
	I mean, you seem to be... Well, I've jerked some of these clips.
	Front hole.
	Let's talk about... Yes, we need to... This was actually quite interesting.
	We had the big debate.
	The big debate.
	Cuomo versus Dave Smith, the comedian.
	You have to say the comedian, otherwise people don't know.
	It's such a standard name, Dave Smith.
	And so Cuomo had the big debate and for three hours he was just dragged all around the floor.
	This is the value attainment clip.
	Well, those were the value attainment clips.
	But now we have a new product on the market.
	Hold on, I'll play the product placement here.
	On the Medical Watch this afternoon, a combined COVID-19 and flu vaccine is showing some promising results.
	Biotech company Moderna said the combination shot was shown to be more effective than existing standalone shots for COVID and the flu.
	The results come after testing the shot in about 8,000 patients or so.
	Moderna plans to file for federal approval this summer and hopes to have the vaccine available next year.
	Pfizer and Novavax are also testing a combined flu shot, but Moderna is the first to announce positive late-stage trial results.
	So they cannot help themselves.
	Oh, now we've got the flu vid shot or whatever it is.
	So there's a big push.
	And of course, if you work at NewsNet, what is it?
	NewsNation?
	Where does Cuomo work?
	NewsNation?
	I think it's NewsNation.
	Yeah, News Nation.
	No, we're just gonna, he cannot, he cannot just say, stop, this is crazy, stop.
	No, no, he's gotta do the whole native ad.
	Fluvid is so scary, especially for vulnerable populations, elderly, people who have lung issues, heart issues.
	Fluvid is COVID and the flu, especially at once.
	Real fear.
	Drug maker Moderna just released the results of a new trial for a tube... Everyone knows it's Moderna, but he apparently didn't get the memo.
	Sound too good to be true?
	Will there be pushback from those who are still bitter about pandemic era messaging and policies?
	Let's ask my old friend, former White House COVID emergency response coordinator, the Dean of Brown University School of Public Health, Dr. Ashish Jha.
	It is good to see you, Dr. Jha.
	It's been a minute.
	It has been a minute.
	Chris, great to see you.
	you thanks for having me here so not he has not learned a single thing after being dragged around publicly and he's just like oh wow it's scary fluvid oh you might get it bring in dr jod you remember this jabroni yeah we have a localist named bo chin or something from ucsf that's the same guy basically He just goes around telling people to get more boosters.
	But listen to the lies!
	So, Doc, give me your take on where we are with this 2-in-1, and then I want to have a dialogue that will likely exist with a certain percentage of our population.
	But what's your take on this?
	A certain percentage of our population.
	You mean the smart, living ones?
	Yes or no, good or bad?
	I'm optimistic.
	Look, preliminary data, I always like to look at the full set of data.
	Those data are not fully out yet.
	We're going to look at everything, make a decision.
	I'm not, the FDA is.
	But I've been pushing for this.
	I like this idea.
	Single shot, it makes it easier.
	Hold on a second!
	So this guy says, oh, first, before anything, you know, we've got to get all the data.
	I won't have it, but the FDA will.
	And then he goes on and violates his own preface?
	Yes.
	This is an ad.
	They're rolling it out.
	It's obviously an ad.
	They're rolling it out again.
	Hey, let's get the conservatives.
	Cuomo will do it.
	But I've been pushing for this.
	I like this idea.
	Single shot, makes it easy.
	You go in, you get one shot, you're done.
	Again, if the data pan out, I think this is going to be really convenient for a lot of folks.
	It's really convenient for a lot of folks, but aren't you concerned about mRNA?
	Alright, now, here's the concerns.
	I'm not putting more mRNA in me.
	You guys lied to me the first time about it.
	I don't know how much spike protein it's gonna make in me.
	Everybody's getting vaccine injured and now you want me to do it again?
	This is only good for Moderna, not for me.
	Woah!
	Woah, Chris throwing down the gauntlet.
	Let's see if he keeps it up.
	I hear that.
	I'll tell you, I'll start off by talking about what I advise my own family.
	I have elderly parents.
	They get COVID shots at least once a year.
	I get COVID shots once a year.
	It's what my family does.
	I just think from a safety and health point of view, to me, this is a no brainer.
	No brainer.
	MRNA, people get very kind of bent out of shape over it.
	Look, MRNA is in every single cell of your body.
	What?
	What?
	John, to your knowledge, is mRNA in every single cell of your body?
	If I've had nine boosters, I'm sure it is.
	mRNA is in every single cell of your body.
	All your cells have DNA.
	DNA makes RNA.
	mRNA is one of the types.
	This is not some unusual substance.
	Literally every cell in your body has mRNA.
	And, you know, how many people have gotten COVID vaccines in America?
	300 million?
	What?
	Or 250?
	Between 250 and 300 million people?
	This is going to be a small country at the end of the day.
	Most people have done very well with it.
	Most people have had very little in the way of reaction.
	So yeah, I get the concern.
	But my view on this is these vaccines are incredibly safe.
	They work really well.
	And that's why I continue encouraging my family to get it.
	This is horrible.
	There was a drink thing here in town the other night, and the international diamond smugglers are friends who are game hunters, husband and wife, and you know, they go off to Africa, shoot an elephant, whatever.
	They're fun people.
	And, uh, and they were saying that during, and they're not vaxxed, during COVID, so many hunters they knew were getting vaxxed just so they can go out and hunt.
	I said, well, how are they doing?
	He says, he's horrible.
	Half of them can't walk.
	You know, they've got all, I mean, it's really, I was like, wow.
	He says, oh yeah, you have no idea.
	This is really horrible.
	It's crushed the whole hunting industry, apparently.
	Not for Mashi's job, but the messaging was mixed and muddled early on.
	This isn't really a vaccine, the mRNA stuff.
	It doesn't immunize you.
	It doesn't really stop transmission.
	Do you see how he's using the mocking voice?
	Cuomo is still all in.
	Except early on, and then the thing mutates too fast, and the boosters can't keep up.
	And I'm not sure that I can trust the messaging this time either.
	How do you regain trust with a population that believes they were sold a bill of goods that was incomplete at a minimum?
	Well, go on the Chris Cuomo show, of course.
	Yeah, look, I think the way you restore trust with people is you just be honest and straightforward with them.
	I've tried throughout the whole pandemic to be honest and straightforward.
	Tried.
	We haven't gotten everything right.
	I didn't... I tried.
	I really tried, but I had to lie from time to time.
	You didn't get everything right.
	No, I didn't.
	We haven't gotten everything right, but that's fine.
	That's normal in a pandemic.
	You're learning as you go along.
	No, it's fine.
	It's fine!
	It's fine!
	Safe and effective!
	And yeah, the virus mutated, and that caused some of the initial benefits of the vaccines to wear down.
	But here's what we know, Chris.
	We still know people are getting sick and dying of this virus.
	Not that many, and certainly not compared to what we used to see.
	Almost all those people are elderly who have not kept up with their vaccines.
	So, for me, the evidence on this is very clear, and the communication's got to be very straightforward.
	What do we know?
	What do we not know?
	That's why on this double shot, I didn't come out and say, hey, this is awesome.
	I said, look, let's look at the full set of data.
	If the data bear out, we'll do it.
	If the data don't bear out, we're not going to go forward with this.
	Wow, talk about hedging.
	He just a minute ago said it was a great idea.
	Well, how about the kids?
	Well, do you think it should be something where you don't mess with kids and you don't mess with the young and strong, just make it to the old and the vulnerable?
	Yeah, get them first.
	And should that have been the rule during the pandemic?
	Should it have been no mandates for the young and healthy or the kids?
	They don't need it.
	No mandates except for the older.
	They can get it if they need it.
	Yeah, so here's what we knew.
	Obviously for older Americans, immunocompromised people, it was life-saving.
	How about go talk to Janice Dean about her parents in New York who Cuomo, your dad, killed by bringing COVID into the old people's home.
	Yeah, and we saved their lives!
	Well, we also know, we saw this in the Delta wave, we saw this with Omicron as well, but certainly in the Delta wave, a lot of young people did still get pretty sick.
	So I always think back to what do I think, what did I think was good for my family?
	Every one of my kids has gotten vaccinated, obviously my elderly parents, I, my wife.
	I think Everybody's a bit better off.
	The kids are probably better off a little.
	The elderly are better off a lot.
	Mandates is a whole different issue.
	I get why people are frustrated with mandates.
	That was a long time ago.
	Certainly don't think we need mandates anymore moving forward.
	But I think it's really important, especially for older Americans, to keep up on their vaccines.
	And this is a great way to do it.
	It's a great way to do it.
	Keep up on your vaccines.
	It's a great way to do it.
	By going on the Chris Cuomo Show.
	Great way to do it.
	I'm not going to give anybody advice, but I'm not taking it.
	And the EU has now secured 40 million avian flu vaccines for 15 countries, just in case.
	Just in case.
	Well, there's this guy that I know about, and we both know about him.
	He's an ex-researcher at Pfizer that floats around with a British accent.
	The Stark Na- that wasn't The Stark Naked.
	Well, actually, this is The Stark Naked.
	Uh, this is different.
	I have that other guy, too.
	This is the M- this is Mike, uh... Y-Yirdan.
	Uh, Yirdan, Yirdan, Yirdan?
	Yirdan, Yirdan, I think it's Yirdan.
	He just says that Vax is going to kill everybody and it's going to, um...
	Depopulate the world, and it was done on purpose.
	I do have that clip.
	All right, let's listen to it.
	If you followed me, you'll know I taught about 30 years in research in the pharmaceutical industry and biotech.
	I trained in toxicology and I worked with colleagues designing experimental molecules that hoped to become medicines.
	That gives me the credential to stand, as it were, in the shoes of the designers of these vaccines and answer the question, what were you thinking when you made these design decisions?
	Now you can go watch any of my interviews or cut to the chase.
	You may not believe it, but I am sure, not slightly but sure, these materials were designed intentionally to harm, maim and kill and to reduce human fertility.
	That is my verdict.
	And I can stand it up.
	I will be in court.
	Supreme Court in Costa Rica very shortly.
	And I'll be using exactly this argument, but I will give the detail.
	That's the first point.
	So don't take these injectables.
	Don't take the nexodionab.
	They will also be designed to harm you.
	Oral mRNA-based materials are dangerous.
	Don't take them.
	But we... But they're in every single cell.
	I don't understand.
	They're in every single cell.
	How could it be a problem?
	So there's this podcast called the Stark Naked Brief.
	And this guy goes on a rant about the vax, this is the vax clip, uh, about why, why does anybody recommending these vaccines?
	Well, I don't get it.
	And then he, so he goes into a rant.
	Now this is a clip that's too, too long.
	I was going to be cutting it three pieces so you can stop it when you're bored, but he's basically it's, Again, in one of these, it's an obvious clip where somebody says, and these guys are bribed and those guys are bribed and these guys are bribed.
	You just played the Cuomo clip.
	Obviously, there's issues with the funding of that podcast and his staff.
	And that's, for all practical purposes, a bribe.
	And Cuomo, you know, played into it in a, in a value attainment sort of way.
	But let's play a little bit of this until you break it up.
	Well here's your answer.
	Between 2020 to 2023, the UK HSA accepted around half a million pounds from Big Pharma, a lot of it from Pfizer.
	And here's the University College London Hospital's NHS Foundation Trust, which took over a million pounds from Big Pharma over the Covid years, and notably from Pfizer's database, revealed an absolute horror show of corruption.
	Here are the three opening pages of named doctors involved in consultancy work for Big Pharma.
	And here's a page of Abduls.
	Now let's take a random Abdul and see what comes up.
	I'll pick... What's an Abdul?
	What is that?
	An Abdul?
	I don't know.
	It's like a doula.
	I would say it's like an associate assistant nurse, a nurse practitioner, that type of thing.
	Abdul Jahangir, top right.
	There you go.
	Close to £4,000 from AstraZeneca.
	I could go on.
	There are hundreds of these pages and thousands of doctor's names and finding one without Pfizer or AstraZeneca payments is no mean achievement.
	The corruption is off the scale.
	Now why doesn't Britain's Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency or MHRA do something about this corruption you might ask?
	And the answer is because the MHRA Received over £13 million from Bill Gates over the last few years.
	Why doesn't the British media tell you about this medical scandal?
	Answer, because the BBC, Daily Telegraph, Guardian, etc.
	all received multi-million pound funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
	And that's not to mention that the media watchdog Ofcom is run by Dame Melanie Dawes, who is firmly in bed with the World Economic Forum, including their countering digital hate censorship vehicle, where hate actually means inconvenient truth.
	All right, so a question.
	Is the idea here to kill us?
	And what does that benefit?
	These people.
	Or are they just all more stuff for them?
	I don't know.
	Yeah, but you still need people to wash your car and do stuff like that and robots, grocery robots, maybe.
	I mean, do they really want to just have?
	I mean, it can only be eugenics thing and just want to remove people.
	Maybe.
	Here's the thought.
	Maybe they're trying to weed it out, and then the people who are left over, they're the ones they still want.
	Those are the smart ones.
	We want those to be working for us.
	How about that?
	Well, those are the same people you just described don't like working for them, A. I know, but we're going to have to do something.
	And they're rebellious, like you, B. Yeah, but maybe they- You don't want those people.
	I don't know.
	The people that what you're describing doesn't make sense.
	It's illogical.
	I'll listen to a little bit more of this guy.
	And Melanie Dawes, of course, was behind the removal of genuine truth-teller Mark Stein from GB News.
	So why doesn't the British government do something about our corrupt health industry, you might ask?
	And the answer, sadly, is that most of the politicians may well be, may well be, deeply deeply corrupt as well.
	I mean, look at them here scurrying out of the House of Commons when the brave and honourable MP Andrew Bridgen stood to talk about vaccine damage.
	Take note of the white-haired chap whose skedaddles bent almost double after instructing other MPs to leave the floor.
	Andrew Bridgen.
	Mr Deputy Speaker, on the 13th of December last year I was kindly granted an adjournment debate on the potential harms that emergency use experimental mRNA COVID-19 vaccines cause.
	It's fair to say, that night, my life changed.
	What a truly disgusting shower these politicians are, and one wonders how many of them are on Big Pharma's payroll.
	And the skedaddling MP, by the way, is the Right Honourable Andrew Mitchell.
	Right Honourable.
	What a perverse description that is.
	And here he is with vaccine billionaire Bill Gates.
	And here again with Bill Gates at a Gavi conference.
	And Gavi, incidentally, is the Gates-funded Vaccine Alliance, a public-private organisation which pretty much controls global vaccines alongside the World Health Organisation.
	And here is the Right Honourable Andrew Mitchell with Who Head Honcho Tedros Ghebreyesus.
	Yeah, I'm still confused.
	I mean, it just makes no sense.
	I'm not arguing with that, but let me just point out something that he did show, which is this guy stands up to talk in the house.
	Yeah, and people all walk out on him.
	And everybody stood up and walked out.
	Yeah, because he's a Vax Denier.
	Well, you know what?
	Maybe all that will be left is global warming and no agenda meetups.
	Well, that sounds like it.
	What else will there be?
	Yeah, well, I don't know.
	I mean, sadly, I think a lot of people will still fall for it.
	Like, oh yeah, oh yeah.
	Fluvid.
	Well, the kind of idiocy, I do have one off the wall.
	Fluvid, people.
	Fluvid, really?
	Fluvid.
	Fluvid.
	I have one off the wall clip of a woman who's giving a talk at the WEF.
	Uh, I think this is an old clip.
	About Ida?
	Talking about cars and you can just borrow a car.
	Maybe not.
	Which one is do you have?
	I don't see the clip.
	It's Ida.
	Her name is Ida.
	She's a WEF young leader and it's just it's so idiotic to listen to her because it's like are you have you ever been in the real world and actually I mean did you live there?
	Do you have any idea what's really going on?
	Because this is No.
	This unbelievable comment.
	So this is why we talk about mobility, because actually, if you can get people to share a car, you can take out, I mean, a lot of cars in the streets.
	I think it's Singapore where they looked at how they could bring it down to about 40% of the cars if we would use them smarter.
	And the interesting thing about technology is that it makes sharing easy and fun and not annoying.
	It used to be a little bit difficult to share you know you would have to go in somewhere in the other end of town and get a key and I mean that's not what you want to do if you want to take your car but if you can just use your neighbor's car because you have a smartphone and an app and you don't even need to know the neighbor to get into his car or if you can find I can't believe you polluted this show with that nonsense.
	helps you do it's much easier and much more fun to share and you start them thinking completely different about transport and traffic um and i think it's very important that we do not just try to fix yesterday's paradigm but think about how do we want a city to move i can't believe you polluted this show with that nonsense that's pollution so world economic forum yeah it's pretty bad It's pollution.
	So, the idea that you don't need to know your neighbor.
	Yes, I do actually.
	You just jump in their car and drive off.
	All the time.
	How does that work?
	John, you're the one that would be the first to say the World Economic Forum is just a drinking club.
	I mean, it's always held up as this, oh, the evil WEF people.
	They're nuts.
	They're idiots.
	They're weak.
	They're weak-minded.
	I'm going to add to it.
	All that will be left over, the way these people see it, is global warming, no agenda meetups, and Code Bongino.
	That's the future.
	That's the future of our world.
	So there was, I got this clip, it popped up and I clipped it and I didn't even know that there was a controversy going on.
	Didn't even know about it until I heard, I should probably, I should probably play the warning.
	While you're stalling, I want to say something.
	Yeah.
	Bongino's podcast is not bad.
	No, it's not.
	The podcast, not the radio show.
	The radio show is okay, but it's all commercials.
	But the podcast is not bad.
	It's very entertaining.
	Yes, and you can pick up products with 10% discount by using code BONGINO.
	That's right.
	All right.
	I'm sorry about this, people.
	I got to do it.
	At the tone, a clip from The View will be played.
	I don't know why you can't pull a class action suit that says, listen, you are no longer doing the job you're supposed to be doing.
	I don't understand why we can't.
	I think it's like corralling cats for Justice Roberts.
	I think he wants to maintain the integrity of the court.
	I think that's very important to him.
	I think it's very difficult with the composition of this particular court.
	It is a lifetime appointment.
	I'm extremely disappointed at what I heard, but I also am not comfortable with snippets Tape recordings without consent being taken out of context.
	It's legal, right?
	It is legal if there's a one-party consent state, and this was done in D.C., which it is a one-party consent district.
	My problem is, this happens to us at the table all the time.
	We have a full-on conversation.
	Someone takes a clip of what we say.
	They blow it out of proportion.
	Do you think that's what was here?
	You think this was blown out of proportion?
	Everything.
	And so I'm uncomfortable with this sort of hit job.
	So I'm like, what is going on?
	What is so important?
	And this is a continuation of Flaggate.
	Apparently, some woman named Lauren Windsor, who has a blog, which is called the Undercorrupted or something, And she was at a dinner with Justice Alito and Alito's wife, and she secretly recorded, you know, pretending to be kind of all in, like, oh yeah, I'm on your side.
	And so, by the way, here's her bio about Lauren.
	Agnostic, bisexual, fashionista, hapless, romantic, progressive, pugilist, swamp slayer.
	Southern... Pugilist.
	What does that mean, pugilist?
	Fighter.
	Boxer.
	Southern by birth, Southern Californian by the grace of Gaia.
	Okay, so you kind of... the undercurrent.
	Grace of Gaia.
	So I think we already know where she's coming from.
	From Satan!
	And so she... And these recordings, they're so bad that... I tried Adobe, I tried my own filtering, I tried... There's no way that you can play these without you looking at a screen and seeing closed captions.
	But it's basically Alito's wife, and these are all snippets, Went off and saying, yeah, we'll get them, we'll get them, we'll get them, the media.
	And so, of course, the media, being MSNBC, spent hours, hours on this.
	And I pulled a clip of just Alex Wagner breathlessly interviewing this Southern Californian by the grace of Gaia.
	Here we go.
	Joining me now is Lauren Windsor, progressive activist and the executive producer of The Undercurrent.
	Lauren, thank you for being here.
	I know you've had a busy week so far.
	We're so appreciative of all that you've said thus far and all that you have to share with us tonight.
	Let me just first start with the new sound that your organization and your colleague has given us.
	There are two parts of this new tape that strike me as concerning.
	The first is Justice Samuel Alito saying that the media is attacking him because the media doesn't like how they anticipate the court has decided cases and may decide upcoming cases.
	Was that a window into what may be coming down the pike in the next two weeks?
	How did you interpret that?
	I mean, I definitely interpret it as being a harbinger for bad things to come.
	Did you get the sense when he was talking about the media and then specifically citing ProPublica, for example, and their extensive investigative reporting about Clarence Thomas, that Alito is reading, I mean, that these stories are very much being shared behind closed doors at the Supreme Court?
	I mean, his media awareness seemed to be relatively high.
	Oh, it's very high.
	He already had a sense of grievance when I first spoke with him in 2023, but it was much more pronounced this year, I think, in the two conversations that both Ali and I had with him.
	I mean, they spent, John, hours and then playing these little stupid snippets and, oh, she said godliness or something.
	It's like, it's, they've, this is the absolute bottom of the barrel with this agnostic bisexual fashionista.
	Fashion.
	It's, I mean, it really is pathetic.
	I mean, they're ruining our show.
	There's nothing left to talk about.
	You can't do anything with this.
	Anything!
	And then these complete, just like an iPhone in someone's pocket.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it's like a James-what's-his-name wannabe.
	Yeah, but, I mean, just as bad.
	Only worse.
	Yeah, just as bad when it comes to it.
	Uh, then there's, uh, I do have, there's big news here in Texas.
	Big news, big news, big news.
	We're, uh, we're becoming, uh, you know, the, a financial center in Texas.
	The state of, uh, Texas has plans to launch a new national stock exchange.
	Firms like BlackRock and Citadel Securities, dozens of individual investors.
	I don't feel like being nice to you.
	I'm at the NASDAQ and I'm in New York City where we have the New York Stock Exchange.
	Everything's moving to Texas.
	Can't you just leave well enough alone at this point?
	For more on this, let's bring in Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
	Governor, thanks for joining us.
	I don't feel like being nice to you.
	I'm at the NASDAQ, and I'm in New York City where we have the New York Stock Exchange.
	Everything's moving to Texas.
	Can't you just leave well enough alone at this point?
	What are you doing?
	First of all, listen, I have great respect for the NASDAQ, for the New York Stock Exchange, but also one thing that we believe in, and that is competition as well as capitalism.
	And we want to make sure that Texas, which I think may be the number one state for listings on the New York Stock Exchange, is going to provide the opportunity So, did you guys talk about this on DH Unplugged at all?
	So, the idea is a stock exchange that doesn't have DEI requirements?
	as opposed to certain other ideologies that may be forced upon them by these other exchanges.
	So did you guys talk about this on DH Unplugged at all?
	No, because it's inane.
	So the idea is a stock exchange that doesn't have DEI requirements.
	Is that the idea?
	I have no idea what he's talking about here.
	He's just, it seems like just some sort of a tax, you know, Texas looks for tax angles and this is a good idea for that.
	Well, on that, Yahoo had a report on this and it gave me an idea.
	It's interesting to see this because you know very well that there's a bit of an IPO drought right now.
	IPO volumes have been very, very muted when it comes to the Texas I mean, what is the potential vision here for the business in terms of what they're targeting?
	So it does seem like they're targeting corporations that would go to NYSE and NASDAQ, but might be frustrated with some of the new rules and regulations, the compliance that is put in place.
	Think about Nasdaq's board diversity program that they have put in that might limit some companies that don't meet the certain threshold that is placed for listing on Nasdaq.
	If they still want to go public but don't meet the...
	the threshold, they might choose the Texas stock exchange.
	That is really what this business is targeting.
	They want to be an open venue that has less rules, less restrictions than NYSE and NASDAQ.
	They're going to really promote themselves as the welcoming Texas state that is welcoming to companies that might not want to go through the hurdles that they would see in New York.
	- This is a fantastic opportunity. - This is just a scammer's delight.
	No, we should take the No Agenda Show public on the Texas Stock Exchange.
	Yeah, there you go.
	Think about it.
	Everyone gets a share.
	We go public.
	Exit strategy.
	We take some off the table.
	Take a little off the table.
	You know, we bring in Linda Liu.
	We promote our code Bongino.
	It would be a bonanza.
	Ticker crackpot.
	Let's see how far it goes.
	I'm gonna show myself old by donating to No Agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
	Time to thank all of our producers who came in at $50 and above, never below $50 for reasons of anonymity, and John will take us there as we get ready for our nightings, damings, birthdays, and meetup reports.
	We start here with Rita Harrington, who's becoming a dame of sorts.
	And so I'll read her note, which I have right here.
	And you can tell it's a real note because it's on paper.
	ITM John and Adam, thank you for all your valuable information.
	She came in with $199.33.
	Interesting.

	In fact, I think we should just bump her up.
	All right.
	She's bumped.
	Thanks for all your valuable information on media deconstruction.

	None of us there had good support for recording, so they asked me to write something up.
	The inaugural meetup had an amazing turnout and was a complete success.
	There was excellent amygdala-shrinking conversation, including topics from Current News, Ham Radio, Microsoft, Graphene OS, and even movie plots that made for a wonderful and refreshing afternoon.
	From the McKinney Group, ITM.
	Hey John and Adam!
	This is Gabriel, and I'm with my smokin' hot wife.
	And we're here, where are you?
	ITM, it's Dame Bang Bang, and I'm definitely not the spook.
	Earl, Sir DH Slammer here, joining everybody, having a good time on the rooftop.
	Hi all boys, it's Dame Beth.
	I escaped from Tucson and had some fun with the folks in the Santa Barbara area in the morning.
	In the morning!
	Libations were served there, for sure.
	There's a meetup taking place today.
	It's called the Got Balls Meetup in Riverside Park Leach Amphitheater in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
	That should be underway as we speak.
	On Saturday, the ITM Richmond meetup, 1 o'clock Eastern, the Hidden Whitbeer Company in Moseley, Virginia.
	Lots of spooks there.
	The Shrunken Amygdala Support Group meets at 2 o'clock at Taft's Brewporium in Cincinnati, Ohio.
	The Insane Diego Monthly Meetup, 3.30 at the Roundtable Pizza Rancho Bernardo.
	That's in San Diego.
	Let's see, we have Adam's long-awaited return to the old country.
	Oh, yes!
	At 6.30 in Amsterdam.
	The venue has reached capacity!
	Just so you know.
	And that'll be Saturday along with the TMI EVAC Zone, Goats Munching Melons Meetup at 3.30 Eastern, Evergrain Brewing, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania.
	And there is a list of meetups all the way through August that is unbelievable.
	You need to go take a look at it.
	NoahJenOfMeetups.com.
	By the way, the Amsterdam group has done something different.
	Instead of heads on a stick, they have JCD on a roll.
	Which is kind of cool that someone is in the printing business and he has like a shade, like a roll, and you pull it down and there you are.
	Like almost a full model of you.
	And you can, hopefully he'll make these available so people can take them to meetups.
	I could use these in the front room.
	Yeah, they're TSA-free.
	To put in front of the window so people can take pot shots?
	Something like that?
	Yeah.
	Well, there you go.
	No Agenda Meetups.
	Definitely need to go to one of these.
	Join their Telegram groups because there's nothing like the connection of a No Agenda Meetup because it gives you protection.
	And remember, you can't sell community without unity.
	NoagendaMeetups.com.
	Come find one near you or start one yourself.
	Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
	You want to be where you want me.
	Triggered or held lame.
	You want to be where everybody feels the same.
	It's like a party.
	Okay.
	Let me see.
	I have a couple of different ISOs here.
	Let's see.
	I'll try these three, see if you like any of these.
	These guys are crazy!
	Huh?
	That's not bad.
	I didn't think that.
	I thought that was a candidate.
	Here's my second one.
	Really awesome!
	And?
	Not bad.
	Some pretty good stuff you've got there.
	Huh?
	Those are three good ones, actually.
	Good work.
	Yeah, thank you.
	Thank you.
	I've got mine are kind of on the other side of the fence.
	As in they no good?
	No, not as they're no good, it's that they're less positive.
	Oh, okay.
	We go with hated it.
	I hated it.
	Okay.
	Cannot.
	I cannot do it again.
	Uh-huh.
	And the last one, which is the tribute to podcasting, which is hard.
	It is hard.
	Well, I'm kind of torn between It Is Hard and, uh... Really Awesome.
	I don't know.
	It's, uh... I didn't like the Really Awesome one.
	There was another one you had that I liked.
	I think it was the last one you played.
	Yeah, this is... Not bad.
	Some pretty good stuff you've got there.
	Yeah, I think you're right.
	I think that's... Yeah, that's good.
	Just leave that.
	Alright, that's the only one.
	Now... Now I... A little long, by the way.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	So...
	I have received so many different jingles for the tip of the day.
	I want to play a couple and then you tell me if there's anything that you like.
	Does that sound good?
	Sounds good.
	So that's if I was doing it, but of course I'm not really.
	Here's another one.
	So that would be after you're done with the tip, perhaps?
	So that's if I was doing it, but of course I'm not really.
	Here's another one.
	So that would be after you're done with the tip, perhaps?
	No, I think that would go in the middle of the show.
	Okay.
	Uh, let's see, how about this one?
	Time for John's tip of the day.
	Just the tip, I promise.
	This is all Eleven Lab stuff people are taking out now.
	Yeah, that's just a tip gag.
	I think it's been overplayed already.
	Well, they got nothing better.
	I mean, you know, it's hard.
	Well, then, uh... Where's Steve Smith when we need him?
	Steve Smith?
	Or, uh, Smith.
	Jeff.
	No, we'll just use this one.
	Here we go, everybody.
	Stand by.
	Time for the tip of the day.
	There it is, everybody.
	Just sometimes Adam.
	Just the tip.
	Just the tip.
	What you got for a tip, John?
	Well, people love these tips.
	This is Kirkland.
	Oh, Kirkland tips.
	We go to Costco and they have, uh, there's two different rums you can find.
	There, one's an XO and the, uh, from Panama, which is not easy to come by.
	And then the other one, there's just another, a regular one.
	Uh, they're both got the Kirkland.
	There's two of them.
	They're very, both old.
	They're old rums.
	Which a lot of people believe is even better than cognac.
	Now, I'm not one of those people, but it's a good product.
	There's two old rums.
	There's an XO and a Panama old rum.
	One's 15 years old, and they're really inexpensive for the quality.
	So go to Costco and look for their rums, and they've got the Kirkland label on both of them.
	Wow!
	One's got a very pretty bottle.
	So these are actually very good tips, although not international, because people who live outside America have no way to get to Costco.
	No, but if they're passing through.
	People love the Costco tip, so I have to do a Costco tip.
	He just gave the tip.
	Does that still count?
	It sure does.
	There it is, everybody, your tip of the day.
	I don't know if we'll be able to keep this up.
	This level of quality tip will be very difficult.
	We have a double shot of Neil Jones end of show mixes, and an Al Joho end of show mix, which will give you a handy tip for getting a discount on many websites around the internet.
	Don't worry, you'll hear it.
	And you might want to stay tuned to knowagendastream.com because we have, oh, the Fun Fact Friday podcast is coming up next.
	It's a good father and daughter podcast.
	Always excellent to listen to.
	And the next time you hear me, I will have some travel reporting from the road as I go from San Antonio to Houston, from Houston to Amsterdam, straight into the No Agenda Meetup, and I'll have a report for that from Schiphol Airport, the Netherlands, on Sunday.
	Coming to you now from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, in the morning everybody, I'm Adam Currie.
	From Northern Silicon Valley, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return on Sunday.
	Until then, remember us at dvorak.org.na or NoagendaDonations.com.
	Until then, adios mofosa, hooey, hooey, and such.
	Let's hear it for the host of the daytime Emmy-winning show, No Agenda, with John C. Dvorak and Adam Curry.
	This was straight out of Putin's playbook.
	Music Jones Playbooks!
	Playbooks!
	Playbooks!
	Well, we know that this is definitely part of the Russian playbook.
	Play Russian, play Russian, play Russian, play Russian.
	And the Russian philosophy, the Russian playbook will not change.
	So I think that is the Russian playbook.
	It is part of the Russian playbook.
	His tactics look familiar.
	Like a page from Russia's playbook.
	Because of what he called Russia's playbook on murdering people.
	Clearly Russia benefits the most from this.
	It does fit the Russian playbook.
	The Russian playbook.
	The Russian playbook I think if we ever allow ourselves to get to the point that we feel we need boots on the moon to protect some assets, to protect an American flag or an Apollo landing site, a historic landmark, we're in trouble.
	If Russia and China or other actors are going to seek to undermine our capabilities in space, we're going to be ready for that.
	I also would like for our adversaries to know what we can do.
	There are some things that we can do that I think would help chill their enthusiasm for aggression.
	I possess a stellar converter, the most powerful weapon in the universe.
	We do not want there to be war in space.
	We do not want there to be conflict.
	We want all of mankind to enjoy its benefits.
	But...
	Not bad.
