	Hot take.
	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	It's Thursday, June 26, 2025.
	This is your award-winning Get My Nation Media Assassination, Episode 1776.
	This is no agenda.
	Making a big broadcast live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region number 6 in the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry from Northern Silicon Valley, where this is shout out for the University of Wisconsin River Falls Women's Hockey Steam.
	I'm Johnson Morak.
	It's Craig Bob and Bobkill in the morning.
	Is this field hockey or ice hockey?
	Ice hockey, the real deal.
	Oh, no, I don't like a field hockey.
	Back-to-back, national champions is a little school.
	Yeah, but women's field hockey, that's the big deal.
	Well, you just like them because they're wearing tight butt things.
	You just like that little butt spot.
	I think that is a spectator sport that is undervalued.
	Yeah, so is stripping.
	No, it's not the same.
	These are athletes, man.
	You don't think a pole dancer is not an athlete?
	Hold on a sec.
	You're telling me that women who go to a soccer match, that they're not looking at how fit the boys are?
	Of course they are.
	That's why I'd say at least 30, maybe 40% of the women watch soccer.
	They do?
	Oh, you saw Ted Lasso?
	I watched the...
	You're not a woman.
	You're not a woman.
	I know.
	I've been to the games and I've seen no women there.
	They don't show up.
	Yes, they do.
	They do.
	That's why they all want to be a wag.
	What?
	A wag.
	We know what a wag is.
	Wives and girlfriends.
	I have no idea what a wag is.
	Wives and girlfriends.
	That's a wag.
	Wives and girlfriends are the footballers.
	Those are wags.
	You get a reality show, and in the UK, you get on page three.
	It's a big deal.
	They all love.
	All the women's real hockey, which is ice hockey.
	It's not real hockey.
	Adam at Curry.
	Yeah, it is.
	Adam at Curry.com.
	Okay, fine.
	Send him your hate.
	Let me set the tone.
	This is something that I would usually share with the middle schoolers here in Fredericksburg.
	Yes, this is how it goes in mainstream media.
	And this just ended.
	We are now hearing from Iran's supreme leader for the first time since the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran was announced.
	The fragile ceasefire.
	And now a fragile ceasefire.
	Well, that was President Trump speaking earlier on the fragile Israel-Iran ceasefire, claiming he has ended the war amid a fragile ceasefire.
	Now, meantime, this fragile ceasefire.
	The fragile ceasefire.
	Ceasefire.
	And it is incredibly fragile.
	A fragile ceasefire.
	A very fragile ceasefire.
	Yeah, there is currently a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, but it is fragile.
	Yeah, I mean, the ceasefire is holding, but it's as fragile as Tim Wall's, you know, courage.
	Yeah, it's a fragile ceasefire.
	Fragile.
	Very fragile ceasefire.
	I like that super clip, supercut.
	But the question is, what made fragile, what was the point of making fragile the key word here?
	To just put everybody on edge to keep watching, because what fun is a war that just ended?
	You got to keep people watching.
	Oh, it's fragile.
	And it's also anti-Trump.
	Of course.
	It could break any moment.
	Well, Trump is ratings bonanza all the time.
	It could break.
	When you think fragile, you're like a fine-bone China cup.
	And what would draw that conclusion that it was fragile?
	This hasn't been like saber-rattling on either side since the Ceasefire.
	So why is it deemed fragile?
	Again, for one reason, one reason only, for ratings.
	So you're telling me.
	Gambling?
	Yes.
	A long pause.
	That was a good one.
	I even had to look at the interfaces.
	Did I lose them?
	Did I lose them again?
	That was a good one.
	It's been a fantastic week.
	I've been glued to the screens, the quad, all the screens, because such a big happening.
	You know, you could have 16 screens using the Google system.
	No, you can only do four.
	You can do 16 screens.
	Yeah, four, but you have four screens.
	Okay.
	So you have four in each.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I could if I want to go nuts.
	The funniest, it's always when just a quick story.
	So this Mike Cowplin, the guy who did Corel Draw, he's a Canadian.
	And he's the CEO of Corel at the time.
	And he says, he's talking in the little group.
	He says, he says, yeah, somebody says, oh, you know, Mike has like 16 TV screens on the one wall of his office.
	And I said, well, what for?
	He says, you never know.
	I don't want to miss anything.
	The best is when you have four screens and each screen has four people in it.
	It's like tunnel vision.
	Like, whoa, what am I doing here?
	And then all of a sudden it switches and it's all Hag Seth or it's all Trump.
	It's, it's, you know, I never have the sound on.
	It's just, it's, uh, it's, it's entertaining to me.
	And, oh, man, it was just, you know, we had the big splash in The Hague and we got to talk about that.
	Because, of course, it's my, the country where I grew up, not my home country, but the country where I grew up.
	I know the king and queen.
	Remember, I know the king and queen.
	The queen here flipped me.
	We know it.
	And we know what that means.
	That means wag.
	The best part of the week, though, was the president dropping the F-bomb because it was actually a well, it was like a boomer moment.
	It's actually the way you drop the F-bomb.
	You know, you'll, you won't use it, but when you know it's going to be effective, you'll just whip it out.
	Yeah, when it's effective, I'll whip it out.
	So, of course, everyone only watched like 22 seconds and we posted some blah, blah, blah.
	But you have to kind of hear the full, the full, well, not the full.
	It was pretty, yeah.
	The whole clip is, it's good.
	It's very a little bit more.
	You know, I cut out all the journalists.
	Good.
	And I will say that when he says, you know what I mean to the reporter after he drops the F-bomb, that was not aimed at the reporter at all.
	A lot of people don't get that.
	It was no.
	I want to play this.
	It's audible enough.
	Of course, you hear the whirr of Marine 1 in the background.
	And I cut out the reporters just so you could hear.
	It was the same question over and over again.
	And he answers it kind of the same way, but I don't think many people heard this.
	How to get it off a C-SPAN.
	I don't think so, but I'm not happy that Israel's going out now.
	There was one rocket that I guess was fired overboard.
	It was after the time limit, and it missed its target.
	And now Israel is going out.
	These guys got to calm down.
	Ridiculous.
	I didn't like plenty of things I saw yesterday.
	I didn't like the fact that Israel unloaded right after we made the deal.
	They didn't have to unload.
	And I didn't like the fact that the retaliation was very strong.
	But in all fairness, Israel unloaded a lot.
	And now I hear Israel just went out because they felt it was violated by one rocket that didn't land anywhere.
	That's not what we want.
	I'll tell you.
	And I'm telling you, I'm not happy about that, Israel, either.
	All I do is play both sides.
	But we have to have Israel calm down because they went on a mission this morning.
	I got to get Israel to calm down now.
	Israel violated it.
	I don't think they, I'm not sure they did it intentionally.
	They couldn't ring people back.
	I don't like the fact that Israel went out this morning at all.
	And I'm going to see if I can stop it.
	So as soon as I get away from you, I'm going to see if I can stop it, okay?
	Israel, as soon as we made the deal, they came out and they dropped a load of bombs, the likes of which I've never seen before.
	The biggest load that we've seen.
	I'm not happy with Israel.
	You know, when I say, okay, now you have 12 hours, you don't go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them.
	So I'm not happy with them.
	I'm not happy with Iran either.
	But I'm really unhappy if Israel's going out this morning because the one rocket that didn't land, that was shot, perhaps by mistake, that didn't land.
	I'm not happy about that.
	You know what?
	We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing.
	Do you understand that?
	Yeah.
	So he was unhappy with Israel, which they showed very little of that, actually.
	You're right.
	That was not true.
	I haven't heard that whole clip, but yes, he repeated himself over and over.
	It made it very clear how he felt.
	And it wasn't happy with Israel.
	And it stopped.
	And this is, of course, flies in the face that Israel is running us.
	I'm glad you bring it up because I did go to the podcasts.
	It's kind of semi-podcast and podcast because I'm like, okay.
	Now, I didn't clip it because he's very long.
	But Dave Smith, I have to give him credit.
	He actually got on his podcast with one of his comedian buddies and said, do we look like assholes?
	I'm like, yeah, you kind of do.
	But so at least he was honest about it.
	But I mean, the shallowness of the very successful YouTubers, I should say, because, yeah, they have podcasts, but they're all kind of married to the YouTube algo.
	It's just shallow and knee-jerk.
	And I'm so disappointed with analysis and just, oh, what are you thinking?
	Don't you see what's going on here?
	And we'll start with Tucker Carlton.
	Carlson, Tucker Carlson.
	And for the second time on his show, your favorite of mine, Clayton Morris, who I guess lives in America again.
	Does he?
	I think from what I can tell, it's hard to tell where they're.
	I think they sell their place in Portugal, but they're trying to move to Florida.
	Before the lawsuits start?
	I think the lawsuits may have been resolved.
	Florida is a state, an interesting state, besides having no personal income tax.
	Florida is the only state where you can be sued into oblivion and never lose your house.
	Lose your house.
	Right, right.
	Now, that would make sense.
	That would make sense.
	So if you're going to move back.
	And Florida is pleasant.
	So here they are yapping together, yapping about.
	And, you know, this was the general narrative, but the clips after this will get into it because I just have to because we've been talking about this for a long time.
	It's the same argument that they used in 2002, that it's an existential threat to the United States of America, that Saddam Hussein is going to use intercontinental ballistic missiles.
	He's going to gather a warhead with anthrax.
	He's going to shoot, you know, he's going to shoot it into some mall somewhere.
	I don't think anyone actually ever said that.
	So, you know, this is AI Morris hallucinating on the job here.
	So that's the fear, right?
	They're playing on our fear that we are going to be attacked by Iran.
	And they don't have an intercontinental ballistic missile to hit us.
	Forget, just don't let the facts get in the way.
	They actually don't have a nuclear warhead.
	They don't have the re-entry mechanism to even make that happen.
	Clayton Moore is now apparently a nuclear arms expert.
	But we need to be fearful of it.
	Like, I don't wake up fearful of Iran in the morning.
	Maybe I'm dumb.
	You know, maybe I'm an idiot and I should.
	That should be the first thing that I do when I wake up in the morning, not like the Trende Aragua gang down the street.
	I should be more worried about Iran is going to attack me.
	And by the way, why would they attack us?
	I know.
	Like, why aren't they attacking Sweden right now?
	If they hate our freedoms, why aren't they attacking Norway right now?
	Okay.
	Why would they attack us?
	If we get the hell out of there, it's dumb.
	Maybe we wouldn't have these problems if we wouldn't build these bases in their backyard.
	This is the general narrative.
	Like, we are the big bully, and we've been this way, and it's our fault.
	And, of course, Trump promised we wouldn't do that.
	I think he promised to stop the forever wars, but people have gotten in their mind, you're not going to be like Bush somehow.
	If we wouldn't meddle with that.
	Hold on.
	So Trump has indicated that he's a little sick of all the bases we have all around the world.
	But he's never said we're going to close them or just bitches about it.
	But the forever wars, you're right.
	This is real.
	You heard on the end of show mixes, he's been threatening to blow Iran to smithereens during in between presidencies during the campaign.
	It's not like he hasn't ever said that this would be an option.
	So I'm not my opinion one way or the other, but let's just be factual.
	Don't let facts stand in the way of what you're saying, Clayton Morris.
	If we wouldn't meddle in trying to decapitate their leadership and overthrow and install a pro-Western government and tell them to open McDonald's, but we can't.
	We seem like we're so addicted to doing it.
	And we thought under Trump that this would be a realignment.
	We're not going to do this.
	Yeah, this is the, you'll hear this term later, the 9-11 generation.
	This is why they voted for him, apparently.
	And what's happening is cable news, in particular Fox News, they think Trump is a, these guys think Trump is a dummy.
	You like him.
	You know, Tucker likes Trump, but he's a dummy and he's being played by cable news.
	It sounds like MSNBC, what they're saying here.
	Well, the whole game has been to manipulate the president, of course.
	Because he's dumb.
	And, you know, I think that's true with any president.
	I mean, that's the seat of power.
	So, of course, a lot of people aren't interested in moving it in their direction.
	I get it.
	You know, it's all not surprising.
	It's not even offensive.
	It's just the way things are.
	I'm just offended watching these people who I know personally, and I know for a fact they hate Trump.
	The Murdoch really hate Trump.
	There's no one who hates Trump more than the Murdoch.
	I got fired in April of 2023.
	In May of 2023, they asked me to run for president against Trump.
	Did you hear this?
	Did you know about this?
	I've never heard this before.
	I know that Trump mentioned the fact that Murdoch told him not to run for president in 2015 because they knew each other and he just thought it was a dumb idea.
	But I never heard that nobody.
	I've never, this is bull crap.
	And said they would back me.
	Obviously, I'm not running for, you know, I would never get elected any plus.
	I like Trump.
	The funny thing is I actually genuinely frustrated.
	I'm frustrated now.
	So hold on.
	I'm sorry, Trump.
	You just said that.
	And people might, I mean, they asked you to run for president against Trump, the murder.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Lachlan Murray said you should run for president.
	We'll back you.
	The whole thing.
	The whole Fox News apparatus.
	And not just Fox, but you know, Wall Street Journal.
	All right.
	So, and then later on they get it.
	This would have come out.
	I would.
	I would think so, too.
	But this is just an appetizer for the true leader of the MAGA schism, the 9-11 generation leader herself, Candace Owens, who went on Pierce Morgan.
	And I like this because Pierce, I cut out almost all of Pierce Morgan because he's like a podcaster.
	He takes him five minutes to get the question out.
	But this is, but her opinion here.
	By the way, people out there should know that we spend most of our time doing exactly what Adam just said, cutting out these guys because they can't ask a simple question.
	No, no, they can't.
	And it's never a great question.
	Never.
	So this is about the MAGA schism.
	And this is, you'll hear, and these are the talking points that are not talking points, but is the narrative mainly amongst the big podcasters, the YouTubers, the people you wanted us to deconstruct and analyze.
	Thank you.
	It's good to be back just in time for World War III.
	You are implacably opposed to what both Israel and now the United States have done here.
	Why?
	Because, well, first and foremost, just on the MAGA movement level, Trump came out and he gave us a promise that we were not going to be involved in wars.
	And I'm going back to 2015.
	Why did people get so excited about Donald Trump, who was then an unlikely candidate, who was being smeared by the media as being Adolf Hitler?
	Well, it was because he recognized that the American people were being forgotten while we were giving billions of unaccounted billions, by the way, for these never-ending wars.
	And so it's one of the earliest reasons that people got behind him and got behind his vision.
	You know, I'm going to disagree with that.
	I think his main topic in both cases was illegal immigration and the border.
	It was the wall in Trump won.
	And Mexico's going to pay for it.
	Yeah, well, there's that.
	But it was the, and he comes down the escalator.
	First thing he talks about is Mexicans.
	That's when they started blasting him for saying, oh, Mexicans are rapists, which he never said.
	Yep, yep.
	And all the misstatements that they credited him with.
	And there was no talk about the forever wars thing came in much later.
	And so we're opposed to a regime change because America as a country has a lot of problems that need to be fixed here first.
	Same as Tucker and Morris there.
	It's that simple.
	But even when Trump talked about regime change, I think he meant from within, as we saw in Syria in December, where the people themselves rise up.
	And if that was to happen, why would that be a bad thing?
	So first and foremost, the idea that you have to formally declare war on like a piece of paper in order for war to happen is a little bit ridiculous.
	I mean, he dropped bombs.
	He dropped bombs in Iran.
	So yes, we are a part of this war, whether we like it or not.
	Iran is now.
	This, of course, was one day before the fragile ceasefire.
	Yes, I love the timing of somebody.
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Just before the whole thing stopped.
	As we say, this didn't age well.
	We're not.
	Iran is now speaking and saying that they're going to shut down the Hormuz Strait.
	There's going to be impact on oil.
	Why would they do that?
	Why would they do that?
	Good question, Pierce.
	You can hear her, she's going to go humming a hum because she has heard something and spouts it off.
	They're going to close the Hormuz Strait.
	There's going to be impact on oil.
	Why would they do that?
	Why would they do that when the main victim of doing that would be Iran?
	I mean, 50% of China, of the traffic of stuff through there is for China, which is one of their allies.
	Don't care, not my business.
	The point that I'm making here.
	Oh, not my monkey, not my circus.
	Okay, I don't care.
	Now that you corrected me, I'm just going to say don't care.
	Don't care, not my business.
	That's pretty much like, I don't know if you have any eclipse.
	I didn't get any eclipse of it, but when Bernie Sanders went on Rogan about the climate change, Sanders did the same deflection.
	He said, I never read that article.
	I trust science.
	Some of their allies.
	Don't care.
	Not my business.
	The point that I'm making here is that to make the assumption that you can just drop bombs on a country and then say, well, you know what?
	We didn't formally declare war is patently ridiculous.
	I think that is just patently.
	What about when he killed General Silomani?
	Isn't it patently false is maybe the term, but she's using it as patently ridiculous.
	And I guess she wants Congress to declare war.
	And then I don't know what she wants.
	Yeah, but keep with it because it's going to be clear.
	You know what?
	We didn't formally declare war is patently ridiculous.
	I think that is just patently.
	What about when he killed General Silomani?
	One of Iran's top manager command.
	Sure, an assassination, a strike, and that, of course, came with some risk.
	It's a little bit different to be flying out B-SIC bomber, B6 bombers.
	B6 bombers.
	This is a whole new level.
	There's been a new bomber.
	You haven't heard it?
	It's super stealth.
	It's a little bit different to be flying out B6 bombers in the middle of the night and dropping bombs at the behest of BBNet and Yahoo, which brings me to the second thing.
	There it is.
	At the behest.
	This is what Scott Horton says.
	This is what the term behest.
	I had to look it up just to make sure.
	Behest.
	Noun.
	An authoritative command or urgent request, something done or carried out at the bidding or direction of another.
	Example, at the king's behest, the army marched to the border.
	So it's very clear what she's saying.
	She's saying, Israel runs America.
	The reason that America wants a regime change in Iran.
	Yes.
	I think she thinks that.
	No, she does.
	This is why I'm playing this because I'm going to blow it apart in a minute.
	The reason that America wants a regime change in Iran is because Bibi Netanyahu is demanding it.
	And that answers the question as to why there is this split in the MAGA movement.
	What we are seeing right now is the infiltration of Israel first people, the neocons, people who have always wanted never-ending wars, and the people who have recognized that following Israel's foreign policy initiatives has led to America being on the decline.
	And so that's where I stand.
	I am with the MAGA people who grew up.
	I call us like, you know, Generation 9-11, who were told that America was going to be rendered safer, cleaner.
	All we had to do was agree to go to, well, ironically, war with Iraq because of weapons of mass destruction.
	It's all of the same rhetoric dating back to 9-11, all of the same tactics of trying to smear people who are against this war as supporting jihadists.
	It is none of this is happening right now, Candace.
	It's not my business to affect a regime change in Iran.
	It's simply not our business.
	It doesn't impact us one way or the other.
	And we also are completely done with the idea that there's this decades-long idea that we're doing it to spread democracy.
	Another thing that was, I didn't hear anyone saying, did the president say this is for to spread democracy?
	Nope.
	No.
	That's always a Democrat talking point.
	Exactly.
	There's this decades-long idea that we're doing it to spread democracy because we believe in international liberalism.
	There was no imminent threat to the United States when Trump made this decision to do what he wants to do.
	I want to be clear here.
	This was not Trump's decision.
	It was Bibi Netanyahu's decision.
	And that is the reason that he did it.
	And we're very aware that Israel is dictating our foreign policy, and we would now like that to stop.
	Okay, so we're very aware that Israel is dictating our foreign policy.
	Oh, you weak sister and weak brother Tucker.
	Because this is what they all think, and they are so wrong.
	But that's okay.
	Wait, wait.
	Now I should bring this clip in, which I think is a good clip.
	And I think about Bannon and I think about Tucker and I think about her now.
	And I think it just skewed me just a little bit to thinking that all three of these people and all the other naysayers in that camp, and there's a camp.
	There's a camp.
	They're all a bunch of Jew haters.
	It's got nothing to do with who's running who.
	They just don't like Jews.
	And I can see Bannon, you know, he worked in Hollywood.
	He probably worked with a bunch of obnoxious Jewish agents that pushed him around.
	Yeah, of course.
	He had issues with the people who weren't.
	Make no mistake.
	They run entertainment.
	We're not denying that.
	Yeah.
	And they push people around and they make your life miserable if you're not going along with the program.
	And he didn't like.
	I think that this is just a bunch of anti-Semitic.
	And I know we'll get some flack on that, but people can, you know, I'm old.
	I can say what I want.
	Yeah, that's right.
	You can drop an F. I think this is just anti-Semitic.
	Well, yes, because listen to this next clip.
	And especially when what we're talking about is what could rise to be a nuclear war, right?
	We should have done things the right way.
	And he had indicated that he was going to wait two weeks, and then he didn't wait two weeks because Bibi Netan and Yahoo, at least according to the Israeli press, if you believe it, said, we're not waiting two weeks.
	We want this done immediately.
	And but I will say, you are correct.
	He's not just doing this because Bibi Netanyahu demands it.
	He's also doing it because Miriam Adelson demands it.
	$100 million from Miriam Adelson.
	It was very clear what she wanted.
	She was clear that she wanted to annex the West Bank.
	Did Miriam Adelson say she wanted to annex the West Bank?
	I have no idea.
	Did we miss that?
	We might have.
	I mean, it's possible.
	But she's a little loopy.
	But this is great.
	She was clear that she wanted to annex the West Bank.
	So there was an imperialist plan that was put into place.
	And unfortunately, when you do a deal with the devil, you're going to have to eventually deliver the pound of flesh.
	So because of a $100 million donation to the Trump campaign, he is now acting at the behest of Bibi Netanyahu.
	Bibi Netanyahu didn't want to wait two weeks.
	He says, you go and bomb him now, little Trump man, you do what I tell you.
	Okay.
	And Tucker and Clayton Morris, he's dumb.
	He's just being psyoped.
	You guys are so far off.
	And I will explain why after we enjoy more of this, because there's more Jew hate to come.
	And that is what Trump is doing, in my opinion.
	And more evidence of that is the fact when he tweeted that there could be a Trump hotel in Gaza.
	I mean, that was truly, in my opinion, the most inhumane thing he's ever tweeted.
	Well, I think it was pretty clear what he was.
	I think what he was doing there was pretty clear.
	He's saying he wants a better life for Palestinian people, a life where they have beaches.
	When you pair that with Jared Kushner and Jared Kushner's private equity firm and their ties to what's happening in Israel and Jared Kushner being on camera, on camera on October 7th, saying, wow, that property could be worth a lot of money.
	It makes me a little bit uncomfortable.
	It makes Americans a little bit uncomfortable.
	Now you've asked me.
	That's so out of context, but I love it.
	Like, yeah, yeah, the Jew was right there.
	He was ready to take that land and valuable property.
	To come onto your show to explain to you how the now very fractured MAGMA movement is feeling.
	And I'm telling you that, right?
	And by the way, we shouldn't even call this a schism because trying to dress this up and delude us into believing that the MAGA movement is what has Megan McCain cheering, John Bolton cheering, has Mark Levin cheering.
	The literal faces of the Never Trump movement are saying this is real MAGA.
	Yeah, we're not going to be that deluded.
	You're on the same side as Alexandra Kejio-Cortez.
	You're asking about the MAGA movement.
	The MAGA movement has always been a movement that explicitly did not want to keep involving our sons and daughters in the Middle East.
	So we have not changed that position.
	No, no, okay.
	Hold on.
	So she thinks that Bolton was in the MAGA movement?
	No, she says that Bolton is now saying this is the real MAGA movement.
	No, I understand that, but the way she put, because when he calls out the other person who he just said.
	Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
	Oh, yeah.
	Well, she's not MAGA.
	Bolton was never MAGA either.
	No, no.
	Okay.
	So there's just convenient use of taking a square peg, shoving it in that damn space.
	Last clip of Candace, and then I'll blow this apart for them.
	Okay.
	But you wouldn't disagree, presumably, that Iran has been the main sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East through the Houthis, through Hezbollah, through Hamas.
	I mean, that's widely accepted and recognized.
	They've done it.
	Widely accepted.
	No, that's just kind of has been a terrorist state.
	Okay.
	Israel right now is imparting a genocide and a holocaust on the Gazan people.
	So I'm really over this idea like somehow Israel has the moral high ground and we have to get behind that.
	We've got to go after the bad people.
	I wasn't saying that.
	We have.
	Hang on.
	Look, we can come to Gaza where I think we'll reach agreement about what Israel's government's been doing there in the last few months.
	It's irrelevant.
	If you're going to call Iranians terrorists, if they right now had an open concentration camp where they were mass killing their own people, we would all be saying this is ridiculous.
	So it's rich to meet you.
	I'm concerned about Iran having nukes, but I'm concerned about Israel who won't even admit that they have nukes.
	While at the same time, they are executing a genocide and a Holocaust in Gaza that the world is watching.
	So who's the bigger terrorist is the question today.
	I would say as an American that if we're going to get behind a regime change, it should be in Israel first.
	So that would be my position.
	I think the position of a lot of people who are waking up to the fact that Zionism has brought us nothing but one positive thing that Zionists have contributed to America.
	There you go.
	It's about the Zionists.
	It's about the Jews.
	I got it, Candace, but you're wrong.
	And here's Brian Berletic.
	Brian Berletic, former U.S. Marine.
	He is actually the guy who initially uncovered the Leave It to Be Be memo.
	He doesn't like any American hegemony, but he brings up exactly what is going on, exactly what we've been talking about, the multipolar world.
	And I think it's not nice and it's not great, but I would rather America be the big dog than be at the behest of China because that is true.
	The best price.
	You pay now.
	That is exactly.
	And that's racist, but it's true.
	This is exactly what you don't want.
	And this guy explains it in a short clip.
	We see the growing multipolar world taking shape.
	We can see China rising exponentially.
	We can see Russian and Chinese military capabilities closing that gap, reducing the superiority of American military power.
	They're rushing through this because next year, two years from now, we watched Iran join BRICS.
	We watched rail lines be built between China and Iran, military partnerships beginning to form between Iran and Russia, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
	The world sees what the United States is doing, what it's trying to do to reassert power.
	They are reacting, and there is momentum to that.
	And the U.S. is desperately trying to break it.
	And so whether the narrative is there or not, whether it's extremely risky or not, they feel as if it's better to attempt this now than later.
	We can see the way they designed this conflict.
	It is Israel in the line of fire.
	Everybody tells me that Israel is the master, America is the puppet, but the U.S. used Israel to provoke this, take responsibility for it, and absorbed the brunts of the retaliation from it.
	And it is a replay of what the U.S. has done to Russia through Ukraine.
	And at the same time, they're doing this, they are rushing to create a similar dynamic in Asia Pacific against China.
	Exactly.
	That's all that it's about.
	Not only that, but it's so obvious that who is getting beat up?
	It's not us.
	The Israelis are getting their APAC has control.
	They've got what's that in your mouth pictures of everybody.
	They control our policy.
	They control our politicians.
	It's unbelievable to me that the obvious.
	I was going to use the word obviosity, which I've used too many times on this show.
	But it's so obvious that this is what he said.
	Yeah.
	It's exactly right.
	It doesn't make any sense any other way.
	Anybody who thinks otherwise is they're either brainwashed, foolish, or they just hate Jews.
	So here is Thomas Massey on Theo Vaughan's podcast.
	You asked, we're doing it.
	And he will explain lobbying and in particular, our favorite lobby.
	There's no big, giant, great Britain lobby.
	There's no Australian lobby.
	There's no German lobby.
	The other countries don't have them.
	No, no, not like this.
	This is singular.
	This is unique.
	I mean, if you're an ally, why wouldn't we work?
	Hold on.
	Let me play this.
	I'm sorry.
	I meant to play this one first.
	Two kinds of lobbying groups.
	There's access lobbying.
	That's where they're all your friends.
	They're never mean to you.
	Even if they don't like you, they'll buy you a steak dinner and they'll try to get you to hear out their point of view.
	And they figure, as long as I can get in that person's office, I'm doing well for the people I'm lobbying for.
	But then there are confrontational lobbyists like APAC.
	And APAC has transitioned into a confrontational lobbying group where if you don't do what they want, they come after you.
	Wow.
	What does it look like?
	They spent $400,000 against me in my last election.
	And they are basically advertised themselves as just all things Israel.
	They are lobbying for more money to go to Israel, which all the money we give to Israel is military money.
	So they're basically lobbyists for the military industrial complex.
	Oh, what?
	What?
	What?
	You're telling me APAC is lobbying for the military industrial complex?
	Oh, no, but the Jews, the Jews, so he can't put two and two together.
	You know, Thomas Massey, I've taken a listen to the second clip because he puts it together here perfectly because the narrative is we're giving billions of dollars to Israel.
	We're doing at the behest of Bibi Netanyahu.
	Listen very carefully about this military-industrial complex and the dollars we send.
	There's no big, giant, great Britain lobby.
	There's no Australian lobby.
	There's no German lobby.
	Oh, the other countries don't have them.
	No, no, not like this.
	This is singular.
	This is unique.
	I mean, if you're an ally, why wouldn't we work with you?
	Why do you have to convince us that you're our ally?
	Why do you have to basically go into every congressional office and convince them?
	And it's because they want to keep the money flowing and they've got a good return on their investment.
	I mean, we send more foreign aid to Israel than to any other country.
	Yeah.
	They're, you know, like 10 million people or something.
	Yeah, I think it's Tennessee.
	I don't know the population in Tennessee, but it's probably about, you know, on that order.
	Yeah, I think they said we spent like $12 billion, but that's not actual dollars.
	It's in military aid, right?
	Yeah.
	Well, it's dollars in Commission's Treasury.
	Yeah.
	But it's not like we give them, it's a gift certificate that's redeemable at Lockheed Martin and your local Raytheon, you know.
	Okay, got it.
	Exactly.
	You can't just go spend it on whatever.
	It's a gift card from Raytheon for the aircraft carrier that we've got sitting there.
	It's so odd.
	All those bombs that were dropped on Iran, who made those bombs?
	Yes.
	And then they bitch every once in a while.
	Israel wants to do its own thing.
	If they ran us, they would get what they wanted when they said, where's our 2,000 pound bombs?
	Oh, we can't give you those because you're already bombing Gaza to an extreme.
	So no 2,000-pound bombs for you.
	If they're running us, they'd get those 2,000-pound bombs they never got.
	Exactly.
	Exactly.
	And so this leads into.
	But before you do that, I'm leaning into your clips.
	Yeah, Massey, sure.
	So this guy, which you have to admire him because he's very honest and straightforward about how he feels.
	And he's an impediment to the Republican Party.
	And he's an impediment to Trump's ideas.
	He's just an impediment.
	And he thinks he's so smart about it.
	And he has these little comments and sure, okay, APAC spent 400.
	They probably did because they like it.
	But it was the military-industrial complex, not APAC and not the Jews trying to get him out of there because he's an impediment.
	Yes.
	And he thinks he's so smart.
	But I have to say, and he is not a dummy, but he's too smart.
	He doesn't even want to play the game.
	So the military-industrial complex and a lot coming out of them, all kinds of interesting messaging, but really what this NATO summit was about, and then we'll get into it.
	You have some clips.
	I have some clips as well.
	This was the close.
	This was the big close.
	This is when you bring in the CEO of the company who's going to close the deal for trillions of dollars.
	And here is his head sales guy, Mark Rutte, making the big splash.
	He's sitting there with all the G7.
	By the way, you know, Trump almost fell asleep a couple of times because Rutte was overdoing it.
	Too much, too much.
	He was going off the deep end about how great Trump was.
	And Trump normally glows a little bit when that happens.
	But he was like, oh, brother, you know, you're overselling, dude.
	Here it is.
	For too long, one ally, the United States, carried too much of the burden of that commitment.
	And that changes today.
	President Trump, dear Donald, you made this change possible.
	Your leadership on this has already produced $1 trillion in extra spending from European allies since 2016.
	And the decisions today will produce trillions more for our common defense to make a stronger and fairer by equalizing spending between America and America's allies.
	Now, I'm an American, I'm boomer adjacent, but I'm like, yeah, good job.
	That trillions of dollars is for us because they're all, and they've convinced themselves that Russia's going to attack within five Years.
	It was so, this whole thing was so outrageous that even Queen Ursula, there were defense contractors all over this thing.
	Here's the queen, Ursula, not the Queen of the Netherlands, Queen of Europe, talking to them.
	You're adapting to the new reality of a full-scale war right here on European soil.
	And just like your industry, all of Europe is facing a changing international landscape.
	Your industry is the war industry.
	But in recent months, Europe has taken action.
	Action that seemed unthinkable just a year ago.
	We set up the Rearmed Europe Plan to mobilize indeed 650 billion Euros in defense investment over the next four years.
	We must build more bridges between civilian and military.
	We know that Russia will be capable of testing our mutual defense commitments within the next five years.
	I thank you for this opportunity to engage with you.
	Long live Europe and thank you very much.
	Long live Europe!
	She is the best.
	So here's the, and then I'll stop.
	Here's the controversial daddy statement.
	They're not going to be fighting each other.
	They've had it.
	They've had a big fight, like two kids in a schoolyard.
	You know, they fight like hell.
	You can't stop them.
	Let them fight for about two, three minutes.
	Then it's easier to stop them.
	Daddy has to sometimes use strong language to do it.
	You have to use a certain word.
	Okay, I just need to explain.
	This is a very Dutch thing that he said.
	People always accuse the Dutch of being rude.
	This is a different version of it.
	They're very direct.
	And in Dutch culture, in parlance, it's not...
	You'd say it like that.
	Oh, daddy has to come and fix stuff.
	And it just comes out and it made everyone like, oh, you're just sucking up to him.
	Do you have to do that?
	Because otherwise he gets mad.
	Thank you.
	Deborah Hayes from Sky News.
	Hello.
	The language that you have used when talking to Donald Trump has been notable because of its flattery.
	Today you called him Daddy and you sent a text.
	See, I love that.
	You called him Daddy today.
	That's not exactly what happens.
	No, he didn't call him Daddy at all.
	He said he just was, he was referring to the two kids fighting and somebody breaking up the fight.
	And then Ruta said, yeah, daddy has to come in and break up the fight.
	He didn't say, Trump, you're daddy.
	That's exactly what he's doing.
	But of course, what was cool about the whole thing was that Trump was funny.
	Yes.
	And at one point, there was another, somebody brought this up at some other press conference where behind Trump was Rubio and Hexeth.
	And Rubio couldn't keep a straight face.
	He was laughing.
	Let me finish this clip here.
	Today you called him Daddy and you sent a text message to him that was gushing with praise.
	Is this the way that you feel you have to act when doing business with the US president through flattery and praise?
	Isn't it a bit demeaning and doesn't it make you look weak?
	Okay, so let me just read the text message because that was the head sales guy talking to the CEO.
	Dear Mr. President, dear donald, congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran.
	This was truly extraordinary and something no one else dared to do.
	It makes us all safer.
	You are flying into another big success in The Hague this evening.
	It was not easy, but we've got them all signed onto 5%.
	I made my sales goal.
	Donald, you have driven us to a really, really...
	No, he didn't.
	I added that.
	Donald, you have driven us to a really, really important moment for America and Europe and the world.
	You will achieve something, no American president in decades could get done.
	Europe is going to pay in a big way, capital BIG, big way, as they should.
	And it will be your win for the company.
	Safe travel, see what His Majesty's doing.
	But he didn't say that either.
	No, I guess he didn't.
	And so we continue with his answer.
	But that's exactly right.
	That was the sales.
	And in this case, it would be the sales manager.
	Yes.
	Who would be the head sales guy because he was talking to the CEO, the boss of him, who was the guy he reports to to make sure the sale was done.
	Or he's the opener and they're both sales guys.
	And Trump came in to close it.
	Just to close the deal.
	He's the closer.
	He's the closer.
	Let me finish Ruther's answer.
	Isn't it a bit demeaning?
	And doesn't it make you look weak?
	No, I don't think so.
	I think it's a bit of a question of taste.
	But I think he's a good friend.
	And when he is doing stuff which is forcing us to, for example, when it comes to making more investments, I mean, would you ever think that this would be the result of this summit if he would not have been re-elected president?
	Do you really think that the seven or eight countries who said, yeah, somewhere in the 2030s we might meet the 2%, we've now all decided the last four or five months to get to 2%?
	So doesn't he deserve some praise?
	And when it comes to Iran, the fact that he took this decisive action, very targeted, to make sure that Iran would not be able to get his hands on a nuclear capability, I think he deserves all the praise.
	He deserves all the praise.
	He's my boss.
	He deserves all the praise.
	Trillions of dollars, Donald.
	We have done a good job.
	So I just have to say that the Dutch No Agenda Telegram Group was on fire because they are saying, ah, it's a body double.
	That's not Trump.
	Well, and I, of course, have to look at this with a critical eye.
	And a couple of things.
	The first one, it's unfortunate, but he really, because Zelensky came in a suit, he couldn't wear the hat.
	And man, it was not a good hair day for the president.
	Today was flipping and flopping, and it looked thin.
	You brought this up with me off camera.
	Off camera?
	Like now?
	No, because I brought up that Trump is Wearing the hat in the situation room, and I thought it was funny because they go in there to take pictures, and Trump's work got the hat on.
	And you mentioned something that I'd never even considered: that a lot of the times he wears the hat because of his hair being just going bad on him.
	He's getting old, he's in it, it's going to hit 80 soon.
	But even beside as a hair person, which I, everyone talks about.
	This is the point I want you to make.
	Yes, everyone talks, oh, you're Adam Curry, the hair, oh, the big hair, the big hair, big hair.
	Big hair.
	It took 30 minutes every single morning to get that hair the way it was because if I, even I just stood under the shower, I'd look like Mona Lisa.
	I have very, I have a lot of hair, but it's flimsy.
	It doesn't stand up by itself.
	And so when I had a day off, at any moment, I didn't have to do that wretched hair for 30 minutes.
	I'd wear a baseball cap, baseball cap, ponytail, all the time.
	By the way, ask any of the guys in the hairbands.
	I'll tell you the same thing.
	Oh, yeah, baseball cap.
	That's my saving grace.
	Otherwise, you look like a homeless person.
	No offense to homeless people.
	But you just look like a closure.
	So that's what that is.
	And then comes the most interesting part.
	Look at Maxima.
	She's taller than Trump.
	Look at the king.
	He's taller than Trump.
	This is not possible.
	It turns out, by a matter of coincidence, that I met the king and queen and I spoke with them face to face at length.
	First of all, the king is as tall as I am.
	He has 100 pounds on me, but he is as tall as I am.
	And I will say he got Trump good because he did the handshake, pulled Trump right in.
	I don't know if you noticed that.
	That's normally the thing Trump does.
	Like you shake the hand, you pull the guy in.
	The king of the Netherlands pulled Trump in, touching his elbow with his other hand.
	Big power move.
	I think Trump was tired.
	But he was pooped.
	He was pooped.
	And then we have, because he was probably on the phone with his, at the behest of BB the whole flight, the minute he left.
	So yeah, he was pooped.
	And then you have Queen Maxima, who I don't know, she got some style advice, something since when I saw her, because I thought she, with all respect, looked a little frumpy at the time.
	She looked dynamite.
	It's not my particular favorite color dress, but from a telegenic viewpoint, fantastic.
	Everyone's like, she's taller than Trump.
	Yeah.
	Did you see the heels she was rocking?
	Those were eight-inch heels.
	And her daughter, Princess Amalia, who they are totally grooming, she was standing right next to her, almost, if not taller than mom.
	And by the way, Trump and the queen know each other very well because when I was chatting with the queen, she said, oh, I just love New York.
	I love my friend Ivanka.
	I stay at her house in New York.
	They know each other.
	So, no, this was the real Trump and it was not a great body and hair day for him.
	But sometimes you got to go in for the clothes, even if you don't feel like it.
	That's exactly what he did.
	So I think it was him, but I was open to it not being him.
	Yeah, I would be open to it too, but I saw no evidence.
	I'm always on the lookout.
	Yeah.
	Well, of course.
	All right.
	You got some NATO stuff you want to do?
	Because I'll just take a breather.
	I'm just going to just for a general stuff.
	I don't have anything except for the bonus clip that's worth deconstructing and talking about.
	But let's start with the NATO summary.
	Okay.
	Where's this from?
	I believe NTD.
	And staying with NATO, President Trump says he's considering sending more Patriot missiles to Ukraine.
	NATO members today highlighting the importance of aiding Kyiv.
	NT's international correspondent Arian Pasdar has the Ukraine update.
	patriots.
	And we're going to see if we can make some available.
	You know, they're very hard to get.
	We need them, too.
	We were supplying them to Israel.
	And they're very effective.
	President Trump says the U.S. might supply Ukraine with more Patriot missile systems.
	The U.S. has routinely pressed for allies to provide air defense systems to Ukraine.
	Many are reluctant to give up the high-tech systems, especially countries in Eastern Europe that also feel threatened by Russia.
	Trump now suggests that peace efforts with Moscow have not been very successful.
	This is more difficult than people would have any idea.
	Vladimir Putin has been more difficult.
	Vladimir Putin really has to end that war.
	Trump also met with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky on Wednesday.
	Zelensky notably changed his military-style shirts for a suit.
	That's after Trump questioned Zelensky's attire in the Oval Office earlier this year.
	He's all dressed up today.
	Zelensky also joined European leaders, including the heads of state from France and Italy, in a meeting with NATO Secretary Mark Rutte.
	And I think the message that comes out of this summit is clear.
	NATO's commitment to Ukraine endures.
	And the Chancellor of Germany praised NATO's efforts to boost defense spending.
	He also says Berlin is not concerned about a possible threat posed by Moscow, at least for now.
	We know that Russia is not strong enough to attack NATO as a whole, but we don't know whether they might not test our defense readiness one day.
	I just want to slip something in regarding Ukraine, because there was a setup in the QA that was epic.
	I don't know if you caught it, but there was a BBC reporter from BBC Ukraine.
	Did you see that?
	No.
	Oh, well, listen to this setup.
	Where are you from?
	I'm from Ukraine.
	So my question to you is whether or not the U.S. is ready to sell anti-air missile systems Patriot to Ukraine.
	We know that Russia has been pounding Ukraine really heavily.
	By the way, notice she says sell.
	She doesn't say give.
	She says sell.
	And they're pounding Ukraine.
	Are you living yourself now in Ukraine?
	My husband is there.
	Wow.
	I can see you're very, you know, it's amazing.
	And me with the kids, I'm in Warsaw, actually, because he wanted me to.
	Is your husband a soldier?
	No?
	He's.
	He's there now?
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	That's rough stuff, right?
	That's tough.
	And you're living here?
	In Warsaw.
	And you're a reporter?
	I am.
	Good.
	So let me just tell you, they do want to have the anti-missile missiles, okay, as they call them, the Patriots.
	And we're going to see if we can make some available, you know?
	They're very hard to get.
	We need them too.
	We were supplying them to Israel.
	And they're very effective.
	100% effective.
	Hard to believe how effective.
	And they do want that more than any other thing, as you probably know.
	That's a very good question.
	He can't resist selling while he's already almost selling beyond the clothes.
	He's like, they're very effective.
	They're really good.
	They're hard to get right now.
	Hard to get.
	They're going to be a little pricey, but they're 100% effective.
	Bull crap.
	They're crap.
	But Raytheon gets all the money.
	Yes, this is fantastic.
	This was like, all right, Mark, Mark, Mark, listen to me.
	Vatisha Donald, I am going to sell some more Patriots.
	Watch what I do.
	Watch me.
	Watch me.
	I got this girl in the audience.
	She's from Ukraine.
	I'm going to pay a lot of attention to her.
	And they're very effective.
	100% effective.
	Hard to believe how effective.
	And they do want that more than any other thing, as you probably know.
	That's a very good question.
	You can use the code Bongino, get a discount.
	And I wish you a lot of luck.
	I mean, I can see very upsetting to you.
	Say hello to your husband.
	Okay.
	That was dynamite.
	That was Trump the salesman to the max.
	That was very impressive.
	Very impressive.
	That was good.
	Very, very impressive.
	Okay, part Q of the NATO clip.
	NATO raising the spending target comes amid global conflicts.
	British Prime Minister Kier Starmer says developments in the Middle East won't affect aid to Ukraine.
	While we work to lower the temperature in the Middle East, we will not for a moment lose focus on Ukraine.
	The British Prime Minister is also calling for renewed diplomatic efforts to push Russian President Vladimir Putin toward a ceasefire.
	Yeah, there you go.
	There you go.
	I'm almost convinced that Putin's in on this ceasefire.
	You know, but why not?
	He needs to raise money from his own people.
	Macron was talking about the war economy a year ago.
	Look, what else are we going to do?
	The Green New Deal sucks.
	Stuff doesn't work.
	It's no good.
	It's expensive.
	Yeah, so let's build some bombs.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	What else do we have to do with the Robin Iran?
	Well, I have one last clip, but there's a little in-between clip here.
	This is the off-target clip.
	I don't know why I put Vielder on there, but this is about Ruda.
	This was kind of another version of the retort to the daddy thing, which the press was preoccupied about.
	And I think it was funny because I think at one point Trump or some or just news media, right-wing news media said, why are they obsessing on this daddy thing?
	But this was an interesting little clip here.
	Today you called him daddy and you sent a text message to him.
	This is my decision.
	Oh, this is the same clip.
	Okay, it's playing mine.
	We already played it.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Now, this will be the bombing clip.
	This is bomb.
	It says bomb with an I spelled, misspelled it for some reason.
	Very rare, but I misspelled it.
	Well, B and N are next to each other on the keyboard.
	Okay, B and N. Okay, I got it.
	The switch typing is deteriorated.
	Oh, why bother?
	Why bother?
	Just do two series and look at this.
	Just bango game fisted.
	President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio today making their most detailed case yet on why they're confident that U.S. strikes have obliterated Iran's nuclear system.
	It comes as NATO leaders delivered Trump a win by agreeing to boost their defense spending.
	Anthony's White House correspondent Iris Tao has more.
	It's been obliterated, totally obliterated.
	Setting fresh intelligence, including confirmation by Israeli agents who went there, President Trump again makes clear that U.S. strikes have successfully taken out Iran's clean nuclear sites, setting back its nuclear ambitions for decades.
	And now this incredible exercise of American strength has paved the way for peace.
	Speaking at a press conference at NATO, the president refutes a leaked intelligence report that claimed, with low confidence, that the attack failed to cover a key component of Iran's nuclear program.
	Trump calls the report incomplete and slams the media for driving such narratives.
	Those pilots flew at great risk in CNN, New York Times, they're all bad.
	Like trying to go and get me, you're hurting those people.
	They were devastated.
	On exactly why the mission is deemed a success, President Trump says the U.S. hit the targets with a dozen 30,000-pound bunker buster bombs before Iran had a chance to move its enriched uranium.
	We think we hit them so hard and so fast they didn't get to move.
	Secretary of State Marco Rubio reveals that Iran's facility to convert nuclear fuel into the form needed for nuclear weapons was destroyed.
	It is where it used to be on the map.
	You can't even find where it used to be because the whole thing is just blackened out.
	It's gone.
	It's whatever.
	Iran itself, on Wednesday, for the first time, admitted that its nuclear sites were badly damaged.
	Before you get into Heg Seth, I just want to play this one quick analysis clip from CNBC.
	It's David Albright, no relation to Madeline.
	And he is the president of ISIS, of all unfortunate acronyms for a company.
	That's a bad one.
	Institute for Science and International Security.
	And this was a military-industrial complex demo, okay?
	Not as in demolition, but demonstration.
	Because this thing was, if true, which I am just going to believe this, really was quite amazing what they did and the precision of this, he explains.
	What do you think they were basing that on?
	That the structures are still intact, the building?
	I think they were dependent on satellite imagery and some communication intercepts.
	And I don't think they can tell.
	And also from the reporting, I don't know if they're talking about Fordow or a mountain complex at Esfahan nuclear site.
	I mean, it's very murky.
	What we found at Fordow is we have building designs for Fordow from previous or other work we do.
	And we could geolocate what parts of the site were being targeted.
	So there's a very important ventilation shaft that comes up from the bottom, from the floor of the centrifuge plant, all the way up to the surface.
	The three holes for the MOPs are right in that ventilation shaft area or ventilation system.
	So it's kind of a clean shot all the way to the bottom.
	You're not going through a mountain per se.
	We also found that the other three were targeted at the end of the centrifuge hall, going through an older structure that had been on the surface and that Iran had covered up back many years ago.
	So we think that's a vulnerability in the mountain.
	And so with these, if these mocks got through, what they're doing is if they explode, they're creating shockwaves that run throughout the complex from two different directions.
	And so we wouldn't expect the roofs to collapse.
	We would just expect fire pressure shockwaves that would destroy things in their path.
	And so if it worked, it would be extremely destructive.
	So they lob these things down a one meter hole, one after another, all the way down to the bottom?
	That's what they claim.
	They went down the ventilation shaft.
	That's true.
	That's like that's some.
	13,000 feet.
	That's better than an iPhone.
	I mean, that's some technology right there.
	Well, these bombs aren't cheap.
	But I'm thinking that this leak that came out of the DIA, by the way, the DIA, I love everyone who's intelligence.
	I'm sure everybody's a patriot.
	But the Defense Intelligence Agency, these are the people that leak all these crazy stories.
	The grid's going to go down.
	Chinese men of fighting age going to form an army.
	Yeah, all the stuff you get to hear in Fredericksburg.
	I hear none of it here.
	John F. Kennedy Jr. is still alive.
	He's alive.
	Fauci's.
	Mother Teresa is Fauci's mom, and she's a dude.
	I mean, I've heard it all.
	Jennifer Manison, all the Victoria's secrets.
	I mean, that's not, but it comes from the same, the same group.
	I'm almost convinced that this whole leak was a fake.
	Well, it could have been a fake from a competing company.
	Saying that.
	Well, there's that.
	It also could have been just something to get the media all riled up so Trump can moan and groan.
	Yeah, that would be...
	DIA, they do the psyops.
	They're out of control.
	I think so, too.
	Yeah.
	No question about it.
	Something's very fishy about this whole leaked low-confidence memo and the girl who picked it up, this Bertrand woman.
	This was good.
	You had this in the newsletter.
	I had in the newsletter.
	She's a two-time Emmy Award winner.
	She's young.
	She's probably working for somehow somewhere.
	She was blamed for being the first to promote the 54 intelligence agents think that the Biden laptop's bull crap.
	And she also did, she was caught up in the something before that, the dossier.
	She was all in on that.
	Something about her is kind of fishy too, but she's not an idiot.
	So there's a lot going on there.
	So one of the things I caught this morning is Hegseth's press conference.
	And I only wanted to play a little bit of it because I'm noticing something very interesting, which is that Hegseth, who a lot of people think is being run.
	And I've never heard clips from this guy.
	I got to dig some clips up this guy, General Carrillo.
	Oh, this is a new guy.
	Carrillo is a guy.
	We don't hear about him, but everybody who knows anything says that Carrillo is running Heg Seth, which we knew him when Heckset got in.
	He's going to have to have somebody that.
	And Heck Seth was going to be a front guy.
	But Heck Seth, I think even though Trump is praising him a lot, trying to get him back on track, and I don't think he's doing a bad job per se as a job, but as a front guy, I think he's starting to fail because he brought him in.
	He's a Fox guy.
	He's got the military background.
	He's a little bit of a grunt, but he's got the military background to do this.
	And he's got the good looks.
	But all that's falling by the wayside because I believe there's a milieu influencer within the White House that is affecting Hegseth.
	Hegseth has picked up a sibilance in his voice, which is bordering on like that?
	No, no, it's more.
	Sibilance can go that way.
	Sibilance can go toward a Sylvester the Cat sound where he talks like this.
	It's almost going a little bit like that.
	And sibilance can go into the lisp.
	The lisp, the lisp, the lisp.
	So sibilance, and in fact, in audio, in the audio world, there's a thing called a D-Ser you can buy.
	Yes.
	And it's in my board.
	I've got it in my board even.
	It takes sibilance out because sometimes the audio equipment will create it, but I don't think so in this case.
	This is Hegseth.
	There's a short clip.
	You're going to have to listen for it.
	It's heading toward a Lisp, and I'm trying to figure out who it's.
	I figured out who it sounds like.
	I figured out who the alpha male is in the room that's creating this.
	He's the guy that's caused Hegset to do two things.
	One, he's developing a Lisp, and he's talking fast like a maniac.
	He's not like a professional TV guy that he once was.
	First term, and here in his second term, we've accelerated that.
	32 NATO countries committed to spending 5% of their GDP on defense, on actually investing in the NATO alliance, NATO alliance, NATO alliance.
	So I hope with all the ink spilled, all of your outlets find the time to properly recognize this historic change in continental security that other presidents tried to do, other presidents talked about.
	President Trump accomplished it.
	It's a huge deal.
	You see, we're here this morning because in hunting for scandals all the time, in trying to find wedges and spin stories, this press corps and the press corps miss historic moments.
	You miss historic moments like 5% at NATO, which when you hear, I was in the closed-door briefing, I wish there could have been cameras in there.
	When you heard the prime ministers and presidents of other countries, to a man and to a woman, looking at President Trump and saying, this never could have happened.
	Never would have happened.
	Seemed impossible five years ago, two years ago, eight years ago.
	But here we are because of your leadership.
	If you asked them the question, I bet they'd say the same thing.
	But searching for scandals, you miss historic moments like recruiting at the Pentagon, historic levels in the Army, the Air Force, and the Navy.
	Yeah, maybe there'll be a little mention here or there.
	But because it was under President Trump's leadership, because it was because Americans are responding to him as commander-in-chief, the press corps doesn't want to write about him.
	Ah, I got it.
	I know who's influencing him.
	This Lindsey Graham.
	No.
	How about J.D. Vance?
	I get a bit of a J.D. Vance vibe from him.
	No, this is Rubio.
	Of course it is.
	Ah, boom.
	Yeah.
	Nailed it.
	Rubio.
	Totally Rubio.
	He sounds like Rubio.
	He's getting Rubio's cadence.
	Rubio is a funny guy, but when he's serious, he's a fast talker.
	He's mean.
	Yes.
	He has a sibilance.
	Yes.
	He's borderline lisping, and this guy's borderline lisping.
	Rubio is the alpha male in the room of these advisors.
	Who would have thought that that dancer?
	Yeah, the dancer.
	The dancer.
	The prancer and dancer.
	Who would have thought?
	The dancer Prancer is now the guy that's...
	There were the two guys that went with Trump to NATO.
	They were behind him.
	And so those two guys are talking a lot.
	And Rubio is creating the milieu.
	It just reminds me of during the Obama administration.
	We had all those women that sounded exactly the same.
	Lisa Monica.
	So sounding like Rubio.
	These milieus are, which shows I'm a nut about them because I found myself.
	When I was at the air pollution district.
	There we go.
	So I was working with a lot of cops.
	And especially in the early days when they had these orange and white cars that were cop cars run with cops that worked there and that would pull people over for the tailpipe emissions.
	This ended after about six years, but they were doing it for a while.
	So the place was just filled with cops.
	For at least a decade, when I walked into a bar, people would come up to me and say, you're a cop, right?
	Yeah.
	Because you would be talking like one.
	No, it wasn't the, no, I never said anything.
	I just sat down.
	It was, it was, it was a, it was a vibe or something.
	I never could figure out what it was specifically.
	I thought you were a narc.
	I don't know.
	So I never could figure out specifically what it was.
	I'm telling you, it was just, you're a cop, right?
	No.
	And it was all the people.
	Of all the people, John C. DeVore, you're a cop, right?
	And so and it lasted for about a decade.
	It started probably in the 70s.
	It went on for a while, and then it stopped.
	It stopped all of a sudden.
	And it just stopped.
	I could never figure out.
	Nothing changed.
	Yeah, you didn't.
	There's something powerful about mil use and it helps people identify.
	That's why I think a lot of gay people can identify gay people besides the fact, you know, there's a lot of lesbians can identify lesbians.
	One of the keys to the lesbian is if they put their hand...
	I'm told this.
	Pay attention, everybody.
	Guys, pay attention.
	Here comes John's lesbian detection system.
	One tip.
	This is only one single noticeable tip.
	If they put their, if a woman, she's at a table and she puts her hands palm down, both palms down on the table when she's talking, she's a lesbian.
	I have no idea why that is, but it's an indicator.
	So I'm always clued into this because what you can do, if you can figure out what elements that are in the milieu that are creating this.
	That was the tip of the day.
	You blew it.
	That was the tip of the day.
	And I want to remind people of the sparrow studies that were run in Berkeley.
	And this was in the 50s, I think, or maybe the 60s.
	But they found that sparrows, flocks of sparrows, picked up a chirp that was particular to the flock.
	And they had a cadence to the way they chatted with each other or chirped with each other.
	And if you took one of those sparrows and put him in another flock, they'd be rousted.
	They'd get them out.
	They weren't part of that milieu.
	And milieus are very important to understand.
	And I think that Rubio is the guy that is creating the model for that milieu, and it's ruining Hexeth.
	It's changing his style.
	Very interesting.
	Good observation.
	I have Rubio in a clip with Trump.
	We want to hear it and then we can compare.
	Sure.
	This is the NATO presser.
	This is about Iran coming in to have a little chat.
	Can I ask you, are you interested in restarting negotiations with Iran?
	And if so, have they received?
	So our people, Marco could answer this, but our people are not, I'm not.
	The way I look at it, they fought, the war is done, and I could get a statement that they're not going to go nuclear.
	We're probably going to ask for that.
	But they're not going to be doing it.
	But they're not going to be doing it anyway.
	They've had it.
	They've had it.
	Now, maybe someday in the future we'll want that.
	But I've asked Marco, I just asked him the question as we were walking on the stage.
	Do you want to draw up a little agreement for them to sign?
	Because I think we can get them to sign it.
	I don't think it's necessary.
	Marco, do you want to talk about that, please?
	Mr. President, I think President Trump has shown a willingness to meet and talk to anybody in the world who's interested in peace.
	Totally.
	I don't know of any president that's been as willing as he has to meet with anyone and talk about peace.
	We'd love to have peaceful relations with any country in the world.
	And so obviously that'll depend on Iran's willingness not just to engage in peace, but to negotiate directly with the United States, not through some third country or fourth country process.
	But I know of no president probably in our modern history that's sought peace more than President Trump has.
	I think you're spot on.
	And Marco was calm in this one.
	But that's, yeah, I think it's totally...
	Because it was quite remarkable, some things that he said that I don't think anyone really picked up on.
	And the first one is about, hold on a second.
	This is about the report?
	Yeah, I think it's about, what is this?
	Let me check.
	I think they're very much finished.
	I think.
	Oh, yeah, this is about what Iran does next.
	I think they're very much finished.
	I think Israel is going to get back to doing what they do.
	And I think that Iran's going to get back.
	You know, Iran has a huge advantage.
	They have great oil, and they can do things.
	I don't see them getting back involved in the nuclear business anymore.
	I think they've had it.
	They've been at it for 20 years.
	And I don't see that happening either.
	Now, if it does, we're always there.
	It won't be me.
	It'll be somebody else.
	But we're there.
	We'll have to do something about it.
	And here is, this to me was the whole, this is a big, big deal here, what he says.
	Thank you so much, Mr. President.
	Yesterday you said China can now continue to purchase oil from Iran.
	Are you giving up on your maximum pressure campaign?
	Because there's sanctions right now on Iran.
	No, look, they just had a war.
	The war was fought.
	They fought it bravely.
	I'm not giving up.
	They're in the oil business.
	I mean, I could stop it if I wanted.
	I could sell China the oil myself.
	I don't want to do that.
	They're going to need money to put that country back into shape.
	We want to see that happen.
	No, if they're going to sell oil, they're going to sell oil.
	We're not taking over the oil.
	We could have, you know.
	I used to say with Iraq, keep the oil.
	I could say it here, too.
	We could have kept the oil.
	No, China's going to want to buy oil.
	They can buy it from us.
	They can buy it from other people.
	But you're going to have to put that country back into shape.
	It desperately needs money.
	The rebelization phase is over.
	Now we move in with the money.
	This is exactly what we need.
	There's Halliburton in there.
	Maybe they can do some contracting.
	Yes.
	Do some building and let's do some trading.
	Exactly.
	It's like we need some Persian rugs in this country.
	They make terrific rugs.
	We have a Persian rug up in Washington.
	I'm going to have to get me one of these.
	Big ones.
	The biggest one we have.
	It's a monster.
	Machine-made.
	Not a hand-sewn Persian rug.
	From Iran, a machine-made rug.
	It's unbelievable.
	They don't need to do the hand.
	They have the textile industry there that can make these beautiful monster rugs.
	And since they're machine-made, they're a lot cheaper than a hand-knotted rug.
	Those things are not cheap, even though they're not overpriced.
	It's like a bonanza.
	I want some of these rugs.
	I want a rug now, too.
	These are great rugs.
	Well, right on queue, I thought this was quite interesting.
	The crown prince of Iran, Reza Pahlavi, who lives in Washington, D.C., comes out with a message.
	Now, I know a lot of Iranians, or as we say in California.
	Is he in D.C. or New York?
	No, D.C. He's in D.C. I looked it up.
	He lives in D.C. We have a lot of Persians, as they call themselves in America.
	Very successful business people.
	Los Angeles, California in particular, lots of Iranians.
	I'm sorry, Persians.
	And they all left Iran because, well, the history lesson is what the crown prince gives us here.
	The Middle East, the cradle of civilization, is rich with stories of great kings, prophets, and philosophers.
	From Cyrus to Moses to Ibn Khaldun, our nations have given the world some of its greatest visionaries.
	Leaders like Anwar Sadat, King Hussein, Menachem Begin, King Faisal, and my father too took up the mantle of seeking peace for our people.
	But for 45 years, too many of us have been forced to live in fear.
	Fear of the next terrorist attack.
	Fear of war.
	Fear of economic instability.
	Fear of nuclear blackmail.
	That's because 45 years ago, my country was taken hostage by a radical regime that seeks not only to keep my people in chains, but to export its revolution to your countries and your people.
	The regime in Tehran is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocents.
	Iranians, Arabs and Israelis.
	Christians, Muslims, and Jews.
	It facilitated the October 7th attack.
	It fueled sectarian conflicts in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, and Yemen.
	It is trying to unseat the Hashemite kingdom and delegitimize the custodians of the two holy mosques.
	It uses Palestinians as human shields.
	And now it has brought our cradle of civilization to the cusp of regional war.
	So if you're interested, I'll play the second half of this where he basically says he's ready for regime change and he's ready and all the Persians in America are ready to go back and reclaim the country.
	I will say this.
	So just before 79, the fall of the Shah, who had a secret police and nobody liked him.
	No.
	No matter what his son thinks.
	And in the Bay Area, in particular, Berkeley, there was, and Cal was filled with Persian students.
	And everybody wanted to get all these, the same Persians that he's talking about in the United States that wanted to, they're the ones that wanted a regime change to get rid of the Shah and they put in this mullahs.
	And we did that at the behest of them.
	So, yes.
	And so it's like, okay, You can say what you want.
	I think it's about time that American Persians stick around and run their shops and businesses and corporations and let the Persians in Persia do what they do instead of meddling.
	It was the meddling in the first place that got rid of his dad.
	And now they're going to just screw it up.
	Americans screw stuff up.
	Stay out.
	Well, isn't that kind of what Trump is saying?
	Yeah, you guys do it yourself.
	We don't want to do it.
	You want to sell your oil, sell your oil.
	Just don't get into bed with China.
	We'll lend you the money.
	We'll send our guys in.
	We got great construction.
	I got a construction company.
	It's all good.
	Yeah, right.
	I know how to build.
	By the way, so play.
	Yeah, I want to hear the second half of that.
	And so today, I come to you with a message.
	This is not the Iranian people's war.
	It is Ali Khomeini and his regime's war.
	The tyrants in Tehran couches his warmongering in Iranian nationalism, but he does not speak for our nation.
	The crimes his regime has committed against you, our neighbors, are an affront to Iranians and our values.
	For us Iranians, pride in our nation and love of our country do not come at the price of hatred, antagonism, or chauvinism.
	My competitors have shown time and time again that they do not want Iran's wealth spent on fueling wars, fostering instability or funding terrorism.
	Iranians are not your enemy.
	It is the Islamic Republic that is our common enemy, the enemy of all peace-seeking people in our regions, whatever nation they come from or whatever faith they practice.
	So I say to you, our friends across the Middle East, our region deserves so much better.
	But in order to succeed, first, this regime that has held us hostage for nearly half a century must go.
	The Middle East is all too familiar with turmoil and upheaval.
	So I know you might fear change will bring chaos, but fear not.
	We will not allow a power vacuum to follow the collapse of this regime.
	There is a vast coalition of patriotic Iranians at home and abroad ready to step in to serve our nation and make peace with our region.
	I have told my compatriots that I will do my duty.
	I will step forward at their call to oversee this peaceful transition to democracy and Iran's return to the community of nations.
	Peace is neither a relic of history nor a distant dream.
	It is a promise we owe to ourselves and our children.
	And together we can make it a reality.
	And I'll say that, you know, 1979, absolutely our State Department was stacked with, and done so on purpose, as we've heard, with American Jews because they had a bone to pick and they were like, oh, these guys, they hate all those guys.
	So we'll just let them run the show.
	There's no doubt about that.
	But it's always been America.
	And I'm glad Rubio's in there.
	At least he brings a different perspective.
	Can't accuse him of being a Zionist.
	Rubio, yeah.
	I like Rubio.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I didn't think much of his...
	I've never seen him dance, but I'd like to dance.
	I have.
	You have?
	There's clips, and there's, I mean, they're gone now, but there's clips of him, but there's more clips of Zelensky, who is worse.
	It might as well have just been a complete flamer.
	Flamer.
	Yes, a flamer.
	Right on.
	Right on.
	And here's the most interesting part is the markets.
	Good to have you with us.
	You got global oil prices.
	They've tumbled for a second day amid a fragile ceasefire between Iran and Sharon.
	In the space of 36 hours or so, oil prices have tumbled by more than 10%.
	We haven't seen such a steep decline since early April.
	The international benchmark Brent has come down below $68 a barrel and the WTI below $65 a barrel.
	At the start of the week, there was a lot of concern about a potential supply shock should Iran decide to block the Strait of Khormuz.
	That concern now appears to be gone as a ceasefire remains in place despite earlier violations.
	President Trump's social media comment that China could continue buying Iranian oil further fueled the sell-off.
	Global stock markets, on the other hand, rallied.
	Wall Street's three main indexes all ended sharply higher, with the Dow Jones gaining around 530 points and the S ⁇ P 500 approaching its record high close reached back in February.
	How about that?
	Oil goes down.
	It's amazing.
	How about you're complaining about Horowitz?
	No, I'm the last show.
	Hey, he could have made it on the way up and on the way down.
	Come on.
	Longish or that fragmentation.
	That's literally what he does for a living.
	Yeah, I know, but you can't be that tight.
	If you were that good, I'd be, geez, you wouldn't be talking to me.
	You've almost got to wonder if the fragile ceasefire, if that isn't a big oil talking point.
	Oh, let's make it fragile.
	Let's make it sound like it's risky.
	We don't want the oil is going down.
	We can't have this.
	We can't go below 65.
	That's the problem.
	We would get down to 50-something.
	Well, the oil baron will still be okay because he's hedged.
	But most companies will have a problem.
	Certainly the independent.
	No, I don't think so.
	The independents.
	The independents.
	He can, but he says most are too leveraged.
	They can't.
	Well, they shouldn't be.
	Okay.
	But it's Texas gold, baby.
	You know, that's just how they've been playing it.
	So the Hag Seth thing, that, of course, because President Trump called out CNN specifically as scum.
	Scum.
	And the New York Times.
	And the New York Times and MSDN, MSDNC.
	And he's really just losing his ever-loving mind over that.
	So, of course, when it's about you, you've got to report about you.
	At the start of that news conference, the U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Heckseth Lashed out at the news media condemning outlets, including CNN, for reports that suggest the U.S. strikes on Iran weren't as effective as the Trump administration was initially saying.
	Listen to this.
	Because you cheer against Trump so hard, it's like in your DNA and in your blood to cheer against Trump.
	Oh, wait a minute.
	I missed the great opportunity.
	It's in your DNA.
	Wait, where is it?
	Oh, man.
	I got to find that clip.
	Because you want him not to be successful so bad.
	You have to cheer against the efficacy of these strikes.
	Tell me about this sexuality.
	It's in your DNA.
	At the start of that news conference, the U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Heckseth lashed out at the news media condemning outlets, including CNN, for reports that suggest the U.S. strikes on Iran weren't as effective as the Trump administration was initially saying.
	Listen to this.
	Because you cheer against Trump so hard, it's like in your DNA and in your blood to cheer against Trump.
	Yeah.
	Because you want him not to be successful so bad, you have to cheer against the efficacy of these strikes.
	You have to hope maybe they weren't effective.
	Maybe the way the Trump administration is representing them isn't true.
	So let's take half-truths, spun information, leaked information, and then spin it.
	Spin it.
	Spin it in every way we can to try to cause doubt and manipulate the public mind over whether or not our brave pilots were successful.
	Yes, and then when you're talking about yourself, because your own stations in the news bring in Brian Seltzerwater.
	All right, joining us now to discuss is CNN's chief media analyst Brian Selter.
	Brian, thanks for joining us.
	We should just say that excess attacks are false.
	CNN has reported that this was a preliminary assessment.
	Why is he now trying to say otherwise?
	Right, and journalists are not the main story here.
	The main story is what you just covered, the impact of the U.S. strikes on Iran.
	The public still has a lot that wants to know about the impact of the strikes.
	But the administration is picking a fight with the press and casting legitimate journalism as unpatriotic right now.
	The Trump administration is not actually challenging the facts of what CNN reported.
	Instead, it's objecting to the existence of reporting.
	The Trump administration just wants everyone to repeat Trump's words instead of following up, instead of asking questions.
	Because we're the media.
	And Hegseth was very emotional, almost spitting mad about this at the press conference this morning, very clearly trying to perform for the president.
	And we know that is partly partly why the president picked Hegseth from Fox in order to run the Defense Department.
	That kind of performance is what Trump was looking for.
	Yeah, looking for a Fox News performance.
	Okay, Brian.
	But it seems to me, Wolf, Trump is far from the first politician to use the military as a shield against fair-minded scrutiny.
	You know, Trump is saying that the B-2 pilots were devastated by this news coverage.
	But the reporting by CNN that was matched by the New York Times and other outlets was not the last word on the matter.
	It was really just the first word.
	There's so much more reporting to do on this topic.
	This is a very complex matter, even though Trump tried to make it sound simple on Saturday night.
	It's really important to note what CNN did not report.
	CNN did not report that this mission was a failure.
	Far from it.
	It may have turned out to be a tremendous success.
	We just don't know all the facts yet, and neither does the U.S. government.
	So this performance from HEGSAT today, it's part of a pattern of attacking the press, trying to claim it's unpatriotic to ask these questions.
	But I think the history going back to Vietnam and more recently the Iraq War shows that it is quite patriotic.
	Wow.
	You mean when you were in front of the blue screen putting on helmets and pretending like you were under attack?
	That was super patriotic, bro.
	To ask these questions and hold the government to account.
	Yeah, we were simply reporting what was leaked to CNN by a U.S. official from that initial DIA Defense Intelligence Agency report, and we reported it in context.
	Yeah, okay, yeah, from the DIA, the last one.
	You write in a new article for CNN, Brian, that questioning power is certainly patriotic.
	Explain for our viewers why it's necessary for the news media to report on these assessments, even if they are preliminary.
	Because some of the biggest embarrassments for the American media of the last 50, 60 years have been times where the questions were not asked.
	You mean like when you called Trump Hitler and all that?
	That wasn't embarrassing?
	Occasionally, when people might have neutered themselves, might have quieted themselves.
	Oh, like the Russia collusion stuff, yeah.
	Because there was a rally around the flag effect.
	The best example, of course, being in the run-up to the Iraq War in 2003.
	Now, this set of circumstances is very different.
	The U.S. airstrikes on Iran were courageous.
	The actions by the pilots were courageous.
	Gosh, I would love to hear from the pilots directly, by the way.
	There's a lot more reporting to do.
	It seems that Trump doesn't want that reporting to happen.
	He's calling for firings and those sorts of things.
	Both CNN and the New York Times have strongly defended the reporting because it has not actually been challenged.
	The actual details have not been challenged.
	But, you know, as you've said on this program, there's a lot more to learn about this subject.
	And that's what the public wants from the press.
	The public expects the press to do that work dispassionately, neutrally, not looking for an outcome, but trying to find out what actually happened inside Iran.
	Wow, you deserve a Pulitzer for that.
	That was great, Brian.
	You are so awesome.
	What did he even say?
	What?
	Can you summarize what he said?
	Yeah.
	Trump is mean.
	He's a meanie.
	He's a meanie.
	Oh, goodness.
	Goodness.
	You got anything else on this?
	Because I think we've kind of beat this horse.
	I think we're spent on this topic.
	Yeah, I think so, too.
	I think so, too.
	There's this kind of an offshoot.
	have the Mom Davi thing that happened in New York City, which I think is super important.
	Now, this to me seems like...
	This is he'll be mayor.
	In fact, I had the odds from BetOnline.ag a couple of shows ago that said he was going to win the primary.
	But do you think this is truly idiots who voted for him?
	Like, this is the guy?
	I mean, I even heard Dave Weiner on his podcast say, no, no, we've got to hold our nose and vote for Cuomo, which Cuomo, which I was, I was surprised that Dave Weiner would say Cuomo is hardly that astute.
	He thinks he is.
	And it was the women of New York City that got this guy in.
	It's a good.
	I have three clips.
	Okay.
	I have his acceptance speech, but I want to play to start with the rundown.
	This is the NYC mayor primary from NTD.
	And Zoran Mam Danny, the 33-year-old New York state lawmaker and self-described Democratic socialist, declared victory in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary.
	That says former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo concedes.
	It's a surprising upset over former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, who had been seeking a political comeback four years after resigning amid sexual harassment allegations.
	But in brief remarks to supporters, the 67-year-old conceded the race to Mamdani and said he had called to congratulate him.
	Tonight is his night, he said.
	Mamdani, a self-described Democratic socialist, holds a state assembly seat in New York's Queensboro and entered the mayoral race as a virtual unknown.
	According to the city's elections board, he was ahead of Cuomo 43.5 to 36.4%, with nearly 95% of ballot scanners reporting.
	Nine other Democratic candidates trailed far behind.
	But Mamdani's lead in Tuesday's preliminary results appeared too large for Cuomo or any other candidate to overcome.
	The differences between the two mayoral candidates were stark.
	Cuomo is a moderate backed by the establishment who served a decade as governor.
	While Mamdani is a progressive newcomer who promises a break with the past, in the lead up to Tuesday's vote, he garnered endorsements from prominent progressives like Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
	Mamdani will likely be the favorite in November's general election in a city where Democrats dominate.
	The current mayor, Democrat Eric Adams, will also appear on the November ballot as an independent.
	Wow.
	That's just, that's, you know, because I was listening to Tina talk about it, because she's followed that a little closer than I have.
	She said, it's because he just offered all this free stuff, free stuff, and everyone, and all the kids are like, oh, yeah, free stuff.
	Let's get some free stuff.
	Do you think that's?
	Well, here's Jesse.
	I have a rundown of some of the free stuff and some of the changes he wants to make from Jesse.
	All people, Jesse Waters does one of the best rundowns of this whole thing.
	This is only part of a longer clip, but it's pretty, it's condensed.
	It's good.
	Other factions want a full jailbreak.
	New York City Democrats just nominated a communist and the commie shatters.
	Zoron Mamdani would be the first Muslim mayor of New York.
	Zoron's born in Uganda, raised in South Africa, and he only came here seven years ago.
	The blacks and Hispanics, don't blame them.
	They voted for Cuomo.
	Zoron won whites, wealthy whites.
	They voted for a 33-year-old Muslim immigrant who you can see his nipples in this music video.
	He campaigned on turning New York into San Francisco, defunding the police, emptying prisons, legalizing prostitution, city-run grocery stores, free transportation, free injection sites.
	And he says if Netanyahu comes to the UN, he's going to have him arrested.
	Trump can't believe Democrats nominated someone crazier than Crockett.
	Quote, it's finally happened.
	The Democrats have crossed the line.
	Zoron Mamdani is 100% communist lunatic.
	He looks terrible.
	His voice is grating.
	He's not very smart.
	Wait a minute.
	I don't understand.
	We had a clip of the mayoral candidates all talking about what's your first trip going to be.
	Then all of them are like, oh, Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel.
	Because of course, the Jews run New York, don't they?
	How does this happen?
	Well, in that same waters show, they showed the campaign headquarters when they made the announcement that Cuomo conceded.
	And the audience was all women.
	And they were all those same women that you see on TikTok.
	And they all went nuts.
	They love him.
	They love him.
	That's exactly what they want.
	Oh, that's great.
	I was reading, what's this?
	Luxury real estate brokers say wealthy New Yorkers are already looking to flee.
	And Mandavi has already said that he was going to put in an exit tax for anyone who tries to leave the city.
	Wow.
	I don't know how you can enforce that, but anyone who wants to move out of New York, exit tax.
	Not going to put up with it because he wants to be able to, he wants to gouge the rich.
	Here is his acceptance speech, or at least the better part of it.
	Sorry.
	Yeah, play.
	Sorry.
	We have won because New Yorkers have stood up for a city they can afford.
	A city where they can do more than just struggle.
	One where those who toil in the night can enjoy the fruits of their labor in the day.
	Comrade.
	Where hard work is repaid with a stable life.
	Where eight hours on the factory floor or behind the wheel of a cab is enough to pay the mortgage.
	It is enough to keep the lights on.
	It is enough to send your kid to school.
	Where rent-stabilized apartments are actually stabilized.
	Where buses are fast and free.
	Where childcare doesn't cost more than CUNY.
	And where public safety keeps us truly safe.
	And it's where the mayor will use their power to reject Donald Trump's fascism.
	Hold on.
	Is he a they-them?
	I'm really glad you caught that.
	Is he a they-them?
	Because it stuck out to me, too.
	It sounds like he's a they-them.
	And where's exactly what he said?
	Public safety keeps us truly safe.
	And it's where the mayor will use their power to reject Donald Trump's fascism.
	To stop mass ICE agents from deporting our neighbors.
	And to govern our city as a model for the Democratic Party.
	No, okay.
	Oh.
	This is great, by the way.
	I am really, this is going to be fun to watch.
	Fantastic.
	I mean, he really honestly, sincerely wants to get rid of half of the police and put in social workers because they know more about crime than police do.
	Yeah, that's great.
	And he's going to legalize prostitution.
	New York City had a lot of prostitutes in the 80s.
	I remember I was there.
	I was there.
	Yeah, I was there too.
	You could drive down to the 8th Street, I think.
	Everywhere.
	As far as I can tell, it was, you can almost name the corners and it's a whole entire street.
	And it was illegal.
	It was very much like Starsky and Hutch with Huggy Bear.
	You know, you had pimps walking around in big furry coats and the girls with very short, mini, mini, mini shirts.
	Spinning their beads.
	Spinning their beads.
	Nailed it.
	Nailed it.
	Yes.
	Oh, man.
	Boomer talk on display.
	So there we have it.
	So it's going to be legal.
	That would be very interesting because, you know, they're trying to do that in California.
	This guy, Wiener, is another super.
	His name's Wiener, Scott Wiener.
	And he's gay and super progressive, and he wants to be gay and prostitute legal.
	Everyone be gay and awesome.
	Gay and awesome.
	Fabulous.
	Gay and fabulous.
	And so this guy is, and it's more than just the few items that listed.
	This guy is really off the rails when it comes to this.
	He's in the same district as Alexandrio Ocasio-Cortez.
	That's where they're voting from the Queens, yeah.
	And they have the same base, and she's like following him around, promoting him.
	I think, and so the thinking is currently that he'll win the whole thing because Eric Adams is going to be demonized as a Trump guy.
	Oh, of course.
	Yeah.
	And the New Yorkers, for some reason, hate Trump and they don't know what to do about it.
	This guy's going to win.
	Wow.
	Now, my prediction, if you want to hear what I think is going to happen.
	Well, of course we do.
	I think that because this guy's going to be worse than de Blasio, he's going to take this city.
	It's going to take about two years, and the city is going to be close to ruination.
	They're going to have a recall and get him out.
	They're going to kick him out.
	That's my prediction, that he will actually not make a full term.
	I could be wrong.
	What is the term?
	Is it four years or five years?
	I think it's four years from mayor, but I could be wrong.
	Let's look it up.
	You know, we do have the possibilities of knowledge.
	How long?
	How long?
	Mayorial.
	Give New York City back to the Dutch.
	Okay, trolls.
	Okay, trolls.
	That's pretty much it.
	Get back to New Amsterdam.
	Yeah.
	Four years, yep.
	Well, it would certainly teach New Yorkers a lesson.
	And you should have to wear a little pink star to let everyone know you voted for him.
	Somebody pointed out, and I think it was just an interesting anti-Muslim meme, which is that why do the two financial capitals of the world, assuming this guy gets in?
	And what's also funny is he's a Muslim who's all for trans and gay rights, which is kind of contradictory if you're a Muslim, it seems to me.
	He's a shit.
	But he was born in Uganda.
	He lived in, I don't know, South Africa.
	He code switches all the time into different accents.
	He's like a comedian.
	He used to be a rapper.
	He used to be a rapper.
	He's a millennial.
	The hip hopper.
	You can't be a rapper.
	He was a hip-hopper.
	Okay.
	He can't be a rapper.
	Rapper is like 80s.
	He's 33.
	Oh, by the way.
	33.
	Yeah, he's 33.
	He's 33.
	So the point is that you have a Muslim mayor in London and New York, the two financial capitals of the world.
	Very interesting phenomenon.
	I don't know what it means anything.
	I was talking to my buddy.
	I had lunch with him.
	He works for Databricks, which is a, well, he says machine learning, but of course they're marketing it as AI.
	And he said that they just had their huge meeting in San Francisco.
	And he said, it's so difficult because he has huge accounts.
	He sales.
	But he says, I can't get my customers to even want to come to San Francisco.
	Yeah.
	And he says, so they had the Moscone Center.
	And they said they cleaned the city for us.
	They shoved all those, all those homeless people off on, you know, onto side streets.
	No, the Moscone, he says, Moscone was pristine.
	The mayor comes up.
	Of course, there was some deal.
	He says that mayor is actually better than London breed, of course.
	He says the mayor came up on stage and said, you know, we're really doing better.
	Really want your business.
	And I'm proud to announce we've just signed a deal with Databricks for five more years.
	And everyone goes, everyone like, boo!
	They hated it.
	They hate going there.
	Oh, by the way, he told me something else.
	You remember that podcast girl who was talking about mosaic, Mosaic and Palantir used Mosaic to determine that they could build nine dirty bombs.
	Remember that clip from the last show?
	Hold on a second.
	It's worth playing.
	You haven't played.
	Yeah, hold on, Mosaic.
	Yeah, Rachel Bevins with that's her podcast, Sarah Bills, the co-founder of DD Geopolitics.
	Listen.
	And I was like, wow.
	So then I started really digging into it and I realized that it's Palantir.
	It's the mosaic software, which is a cover for Palantir, which is actually exactly like you said, mapping out these data points, stating that there's leaks or issues at certain sites that have never been known to have nuclear issues or nuclear weapons or nuclear material at those sites.
	It's very interesting.
	And now you see kind of the IAEA saying, well, we didn't say that they had nuclear weapons.
	So the new Whitney Webb, as she branded herself, if you recall from the earlier.
	Oh, yeah.
	Now I'm the new Whitney Webb.
	Whitney Webb.
	So my boy says, yeah, no, we bought Mosaic in July 2023.
	It's our company.
	It's not Palantir's company.
	But remember, she really started to dig into it and did some deep research.
	So she did the deep research and missed the elephant in the room completely?
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Well, that's another podcast.
	$800 million or something.
	Yeah.
	You kind of miss that when you're doing your deep dive.
	I'm telling you.
	I'm telling you.
	It's like when people said, you need to do more podcasts, it's like shooting fish in a barrel, people.
	It's fun for me.
	I like it.
	I have a clip from the Toddcast.
	The Toddcast?
	The Chuck Toddcast?
	Oh, lovely.
	Whoa.
	Well, do you want to set it up?
	I can't remember what it's about, but I put it in here for some reason.
	Let's listen.
	Oh, no, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
	So I took the, he did a discussion with one of his buddies, and I decided to take the best.
	This is what he sounds like in the entire podcast.
	I couldn't do the whole thing, but I did about 50 seconds worth.
	Sorry.
	Was that you?
	That was me.
	Wow.
	I know it's good, right?
	He's getting really good at it.
	Yeah.
	Careful now because you're doing a lot of ums now.
	You're doing it.
	I know it is because I listened to the podcast.
	This is the milieu problem.
	Yeah.
	You're going to start that I brought up earlier because I listened to Chuck Todcast and I ended up saying um um um a lot but listen to him uh um of the book Original Sin.
	And then after that, and I got a little, and so do the Emiratis.
	That's just a fact.
	Look, so now look, and they're a peg, let's say this week on there.
	But what nothing that on that front.
	All right.
	I'm going to look, I want to share something with you.
	We had to put our dog down.
	But anyway, I'm just sharing because it's one of those things.
	You kind of just, I just want you to love my dog.
	Love your dog.
	And I will see you the next time we have play.
	Oh, poor Chuck Todd.
	Leave Todd alone.
	But here's what was interesting in this particular podcast.
	He had Jake Tapper on and he was talking about the book.
	About the book.
	But he has a prepared part of the show where he does like an editorial.
	This is the model that you see on Fox where Laura starts off with the angle.
	And, you know, O'Reilly's the one who kind of invented the formula.
	And so he starts off and he's reading it.
	And he does have a slightly different intonation when he reads.
	And he reads about a 14-minute diatribe.
	Perfect.
	There's not one um or ah or um or uh uh because he's reading.
	He's reading and he's a good reader.
	He's a really good reader.
	So when he's on meet the press, he's a tell he can read the prompter and he sounds like he's talking.
	He's not quite because when you hear him really talking, he's saying um a lot.
	But he's a terrific reader and it just goes away.
	It goes away gone.
	He's reading, read, read, and then he goes back to ad libbing and it falls apart.
	It's a crappy podcast.
	Does he have very long?
	Does he have sponsors?
	Does he have a gold as a sponsor?
	Not gold yet.
	What does he have?
	He has something.
	I can't remember what it was, to be honest.
	This is how, by the way, always, did you see that great ad where the guy shot himself out of a cannon and hit the moon?
	Yeah, who was the ad for?
	Yeah, right.
	Yeah, it's interesting because we had dinner the other night and Laura Logan came by, the neighbor, and she was talking.
	Her podcast has actually gotten a lot better.
	She does it regularly.
	It's called Going Rogue with Laura Laura Logan because I have no agenda.
	No, I'm just kidding.
	Going rogue with Laura.
	And she has a producer, which is what she always needed.
	She actually has Luke Coffey.
	That's one of the J6ers, the guy who got arrested for praying and holding the crutch above his head.
	Okay.
	And he got thrown in jail for 400 days or some crazy amount.
	Yeah, it's horrible.
	And so he's producing it.
	He's a cool dude.
	He moved out here.
	He's producing it.
	So the podcast's pretty good.
	And she actually does, and so she has ads, you know, Patriot Mobile, that kind of stuff.
	And she does reasonably good read.
	She's a pro, you know, she knows how to do that.
	And so somehow the topic of value for value came up.
	And I said, well, you know, it's like, I can teach how to do that.
	She says, yeah, but I have a real hard time asking people for money.
	It feels like begging.
	And I'm like, that is exactly the part that you have to get over.
	Because if you don't, eventually you have to understand that in the advertising business online, There is no artificial scarcity.
	This is why banner ads and clicks and all that, it goes down to fractions of a penny.
	It's a race to the bottom because you don't have a 24-hour clock where there's only so much time to catch the eyeballs that are watching this linear medium series.
	Yeah, it was a lot different when there were only three networks, period.
	Right.
	TV.
	And so now it's like, well, how many, you know, how many ads do you want?
	We could make as many ads as you want forever because there is no scarcity.
	And before you know it, I told her, if you're not careful, you're going to be like Laura Loomer.
	Here's her podcast.
	Positive really is an amazing company.
	Not only do they have these emergency pet kits, but they also have these supplements here.
	And this is human grade.
	Okay.
	This is human grade.
	And I just want to show you now.
	I'm going to actually do this live on air so you can see for yourself.
	Okay.
	100% human grade ingredients is what it says here on the package.
	And the ingredients are Alberta grass finish bison liver, Alberta grass finish bison heart, Alberta grass finish kidney.
	These are the same type of nutrients that you can find in the beef organs that you purchase for your side.
	These are products that are so healthy and natural that you could actually eat it yourself.
	So you could see here positive bison.
	It clearly says dog food topper.
	And I'm going to put this in my mouth right now.
	So it tastes like meat.
	Maybe that is disgusting to you, but I'll show you right here.
	Look, this is the bison product right here.
	It clearly says dog food topper.
	You can see on camera.
	Actually tastes good.
	I'm not going to lie.
	You know how the meeting went.
	That's disgusting.
	You know how the meeting went.
	Oh, poor Laura Loomer.
	Laura, we have a new campaign and we really want to show people that this is human-grade food.
	So we'd love, we just love it if you could eat some on the air show.
	Eat the dog food.
	I'm telling you, that's exactly how the meeting went.
	And Tucker's going to be doing it too.
	I promise you.
	They're all going to be eating dog food.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	Yeah.
	They're going to be buying gold and eating dog food.
	Well, yes.
	Your Laura, she it, that is a problem.
	If you don't know how to ask for money, I mean, churches do it.
	PBS does it.
	PBS, which is a nobody calls them a, you know, a bunch of beggars.
	No.
	Even though they're really good at it.
	I did tell her.
	The caveat is you have to have an outstanding product.
	But if you don't have a good product, it's pathetic.
	She has a good product from what you say.
	Yeah, it's pretty good.
	So she could do it, but she doesn't know how to do it.
	She doesn't feel comfortable doing it.
	This is a real problem with people with pride.
	This is a pride issue.
	It's nothing, nothing to do with anything but pride.
	Oh, I have too much pride to ask for support.
	I have too much pride to go to my neighbor and say, can I borrow a cup of sugar?
	I have too much pride.
	I'm too much above it.
	This is bad.
	And with that, I'd like to say in the morning to you, the man who put the pride in begging for money.
	Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only, Mr. John C. DeBoro.
	Yeah.
	Crazy Monio Ships C. Boost and the Graph Feet and the Air Subs and Lauren Dameson Knights out there.
	In the morning to the trolls in the troll room.
	Let me count you 2064 today on the troll countage.
	We'll take that for what it is.
	Hello, trolls.
	They are in.
	It is Thursday, right?
	Yeah, that's good, right?
	Yeah, average is 18.
	Yeah, so we're doing good.
	Way to go, trolls.
	Bring it.
	It's two in a row.
	Two in a row.
	Two in a row.
	And this is a big episode for us.
	This is episode 1776 that represents the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
	No, it is the Constitution.
	This is the formation of the Constitution.
	The Constitution.
	No, no, the Constitution came late.
	I should know better.
	We went through the, we had the Declaration of Independence.
	The Declaration of Independence, yes.
	And then we had the Articles of Confederation.
	Right.
	And that fell apart because for various reasons.
	Yeah, there was all kinds of stuff because people wanted biblical stuff in there and that kind of stuff.
	No, there was all kinds of stuff.
	So they finally brought in the guy, the key guy that people always forget about, but the guy who really put it together was John Madison, a little guy, short guy.
	Little guy four, I think.
	Petite male.
	Petite male, who was the brainiac behind the U.S. Constitution.
	I mean, there's other guys that contributed, but he was the main go-to.
	But they all pledged their fortunes, their sacred honor to this country.
	They did.
	Well, they had to.
	That's right.
	There was no way back.
	And I'm glad they did.
	And we're still here.
	And numerology has always been an important part.
	I tried to explain this at the dinner.
	Said, you can't ask for like, you know, say, give me $5.
	It doesn't work.
	You have no idea what people value stuff at.
	People will value your stuff.
	You don't know what, what, what they're, and $5 may be a lot of people.
	This is another concept that is lost on most people who use the value for value model to to support their podcast.
	They don't get that.
	And I, and it's impossible.
	No, but they don't get it.
	They don't get it.
	You can explain.
	You tried.
	It's just almost impossible to explain.
	The only reason we even came to the conclusion is because what we started observing by having open-ended donations at the very beginning of this podcast and people would throw in their favorite number.
	Yes.
	All kinds of boobs.
	Boobs.
	That's always my favorite.
	And they all laugh.
	But I think it's because they themselves don't want to part with their money.
	I think that's part of it.
	Like, oh, no, I would never give money to a podcast.
	Well, maybe you're listening to the wrong podcast.
	I give money to podcasts all the time.
	If they ask for it, remember From my wife, the retired from corporate life C-suite level communications officer, the number one reason people don't give money is because they weren't asked.
	You know, you can't just put a PayPal logo there and say, you got to ask.
	Yes, the old tip jar phenomenon.
	Oh, tips.
	Yes, I have a tip jar.
	Well, you're going to get tip money then.
	Yeah.
	Nickel, dime, quarter.
	There was this other couple at this dinner.
	Leftover change that's in someone's pocket.
	There was another couple at the dinner.
	They were from California.
	And I guess she has a podcast, although it's just.
	Who doesn't?
	Yeah, it's just a YouTube and YouTube and Rumble.
	I said, do you have an RSS feed?
	No.
	I said, well, that's the first thing you got to fix.
	You need an RSS feed.
	And I explained all that.
	He says, you know, and I do okay with the donations.
	Well, tell me how you do it.
	Well, I never asked for it myself.
	Have someone else do it.
	I say, okay.
	And then here came an amazing piece of advice from her accountant who does the books for billionaires, I'm told.
	Don't say their donations.
	Don't say that.
	My accountant said, you're just a guy sitting with a box by the side of the road, then that's tax-free if they give it to you.
	And I said, I'm like, really?
	What?
	Yeah.
	I'm like, this was a certified public accountant that said this to you?
	I said, that makes no.
	No, no, as long as you don't call it a donation.
	Oh, please.
	Yeah.
	I'm like, why don't you just call the IRS up right now?
	Ask them about it.
	Turn yourself in.
	Wow, wow, wow.
	It was amazing.
	Anyway.
	I mean, if you want to get around the taxes, you can become a nonprofit.
	You can become a charity.
	You can set it up that way.
	It's a lot more.
	It's actually, just for the people out there are podcasters that want to know this, because this was researched out by my son.
	Yes, we've done all the research on this.
	Believe me.
	And so if you try to evade taxes, John has checked it.
	Believe me.
	Yes.
	And the key to success is don't.
	Yeah.
	Pay your taxes.
	Just no, don't pay your taxes.
	No, pay your taxes.
	Yeah.
	But don't try to evade.
	And one of the interesting phenomenons that JC came with some research on this, if you become a nonprofit because you don't want to pay your taxes and you have to fill all that extra paperwork, the nonprofits, charities, well, you can take it off your taxes if you donate to us, get less money.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	As opposed to the honest working stiffs like the two of us who take in.
	We pay taxes.
	We take in the money and we pay our taxes.
	Yes, we do.
	We contribute back to society.
	Yes.
	And we don't get any benefits, really.
	So the trolls are in the troll room.
	There's over 2,000 of them listening.
	That's very nice.
	And a lot of people are in there.
	The trolls have been quite active today.
	Quotes like, I guess the Jew money came in.
	Yeah.
	All right.
	Well, actually, one guy did come in.
	Oh, really?
	We did get Jew money?
	Oh, that's good.
	I think so.
	Yeah, there's some Jew money in here.
	No, it's just value for value.
	And that means that you can support us any way that you want to with your time, your talent, your treasure.
	In an indirect way, the modern podcast app guys are supporting us.
	They enable a lot of functionality that none of these other podcasts use.
	So if you use Podverse or Podcast Guru or Fountain or Cast-O-Matic, all of these podcasts have all kinds of features.
	In particular, the one I like the most is that you get the bat signal and you can listen to the live stream.
	The fact that Apple hasn't done that blows my mind.
	It's like, what an obvious way to capture radio at this very moment is to just, boom, let everybody do their podcast live stream.
	You put it right in.
	It's like an episode.
	It shows up.
	You get a notification.
	I don't know what they're doing over there.
	Not invented here, probably.
	Oh, yes.
	And I know they listen.
	That is the plague of Silicon Valley.
	Yeah.
	And I know they listen.
	And I'm sure the people in the podcast group are really, I know a couple of them.
	They're really nice people.
	But they must be so frustrated hearing me go on about this.
	So anyway.
	Yeah, well, you do.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	We have contributors in the form of art, which is a big one for us because people, you know, they're always looking forward to, oh, what's the art going to be?
	What are these guys going to choose?
	It's going to be something new.
	It looks great on the social media.
	And boy, we picked a doozy.
	We picked a doozy for episode 1775, Boomer Benefits.
	This was by Joe Baba.
	I don't think Joe Baba has been chosen for anything yet, but this was the Trump eating a huge hot dog with Benjamin Netanyahu looking at him with mouth agape, pointing at him.
	And it had the desired effect.
	But a lot of people were saying, what's that in your mouth?
	Other people were like, hey, I can't wait to hear this episode.
	They might have been disappointed.
	That's a good episode.
	Yeah.
	And you know, like, oh, yeah, yeah, the Jews are doing it.
	Israel.
	Israel runs the country.
	Look at Metanya was forcing Trump to deep throat a hot dog.
	We knew all of this would come up.
	And Tina, I'll say, she's, hey, hey, hey, hey, what happened to the rule of no famous people on the art?
	I said, yes.
	The rules are meant to be bad.
	The exception proves the rule.
	Exactly right.
	We liked it.
	We liked it over everything else.
	It superseded the fact that famous people rule.
	The humor of it and just the composition, the humor.
	Yes.
	It went beyond.
	It usurped the rules.
	It pushed past.
	Yes.
	So you can push past if you're good.
	Now, you were actually pushing pretty hard for a moment there on the pass key from a digital 2112 man because we talked about the pass keys.
	remember that?
	Yeah, but I thought I was pushing hardest for the Chinese thing down below.
	Oh, yeah, I did like the pass key.
	I'm looking at it now.
	Yeah, I did because I thought it was, I just thought it was artsy.
	I liked it.
	I got a lot of comment on the pass key.
	Yeah.
	And I understand.
	Oh, yeah, I saw people.
	Yeah, you were.
	I understand the passkey.
	And since we're just talking about it, allow me to share bonus content, everybody.
	See, most people, they only give you bonus content if you pay extra.
	We just give it to you before we even thank you for paying extra.
	Does that sound right now?
	So pass keys is basically like a Bitcoin secret key and you store it on your phone or on your computer.
	So from a security standpoint, yeah, makes a lot of sense because there's only one way you can get in and that's with your passkey, which is stored.
	But if you lose your passkey, you're screwed.
	Or let's say you lose your phone or your computer blows up.
	And so I went to my favorite source for this, Dave Jones, who has been a sysadmin for 23 years.
	I trust him implicitly.
	He says, passkeys are better on paper, better in every way.
	But in the real world, they only thwart credential stuffing.
	So it's no better than a password manager on its own because there's no way for you to recover if you lose access to them.
	That's the Bitcoin key ownership problem.
	Every website allows you to recover your account using the having trouble logging in traditional email verification route, which bypasses the passkey.
	If someone hacks your email, you are still fully owned.
	Email accounts are still the Achilles heel of internet security.
	I agree.
	So passkey, yeah, I can see where nerds like me like, oh, passkey is great.
	I don't, you know, I've just used the passkey because I know how to back it up.
	I know where to put it so that I can retrieve it.
	But now you're basically, you're removing the help desk for people who need it, who have been taught you need it.
	There's a help desk.
	If I can just call somebody, right?
	No, you won't be able to call somebody.
	So that's pass keys.
	We've done that.
	Now, let us thank you.
	Skipping back to the art.
	Oh, yeah.
	I thought you pay now.
	We liked that.
	We did like it.
	It was too muddy.
	Yeah, that was the problem.
	You pay now.
	Well, no, the problem was the other piece was better.
	Yeah, that was the ultimate problem.
	Oh, yeah, you pay now.
	Yeah, it was washed out.
	That's another digital 2112 man piece.
	It's like they put a piece of film over it.
	This is the AI art problem.
	Mud.
	Mud.
	Muddy art.
	Muddy art.
	Yeah, it's no good.
	Yeah, so that one, then congratulations to our relatively new artist who came in with that.
	He's been around for, he's done a couple.
	It's all AI, of course.
	Ruined everything.
	We have a lot of people to thank because, as we explained earlier, numerology has always been a big thing with the No Agenda crowd and Gitmo Nation, and we love it.
	And we haven't had a great episode number come up in a long time, probably since Pi Day.
	Even that's a bust these days.
	No, that's been a bust since day one.
	It really wasn't.
	It's never, never caught on.
	But 1776, I mean, come on, everyone understands the significance of the number.
	And boy, did they ever.
	So we thank everybody $50 and above.
	And if you support us with $200 or above, just because it's a lot of money, we love to give you something extra for that.
	No tote bag.
	We just give you credit.
	It's a credit on the website, credit in the credits.
	And you can use that anywhere.
	Credits are recognized like IMDB.com because it's true.
	You are then an associate executive producer of the No Agenda Show for that episode.
	And we will read your note.
	$300 and above, the extra special.
	And we will read your note and you get an executive producer account.
	And we have a number of them.
	Not surprising.
	And a number of them anonymous.
	Yes, this is good.
	The spooks came in.
	The spooks woke up and came in.
	The anonymous from Charlotte, North Carolina, 1,776.76.
	Oh, I had a little extra diddy there.
	Yeah, and says, thank you for your courage.
	I love it.
	The higher the amounts, the shorter the notes.
	It's uncanny.
	It kills me.
	It's uncanny how it works.
	Well, let's go to the next anonymous from Parts Unknown, USA, 1776.
	And his note is anonymous USA.
	He doesn't even say anything.
	So I think he gets a double up karma.
	All right, we'll hand those out.
	You've got karma.
	Over to Weymouth, Massachusetts, Plum Tucker, 1776.
	Please credit me as Plum Tucker.
	This blows me right past knighthood and into baronet.
	No jingles, no karma.
	But I will humbly request the dedouching.
	Thanks, and thank you for your courage.
	You've been dedouched.
	Nice.
	Thank you.
	So we got one awesome Jason in Smyrna, Georgia, 1776.
	Great.
	And he actually has a note.
	Hi, Adam and John.
	I was going to donate earlier and ask for some jobs, Karma, for some friends, but they both got jobs.
	So I guess it's just the thought that counts.
	I believe this donation brings me to the level of Viscount and grants me lifetime access to the No Agenda platinum bundle.
	It does.
	And you get my phone number.
	You can text me whenever you want.
	Yes, actually, Viscounts can text Adam.
	And wine recommendations from John on the floor.
	Yeah, if I'm here and you want me to check a wine list out, send me a picture while you're at the restaurant.
	John does it.
	He does it.
	I do it when I can.
	If I'm watching something on TV downstairs, I can't.
	Female ice hockey.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	I got you.
	No, the female.
	Okay, the female ice hockey from University of Wisconsin, the girls at, what was it, West River?
	What did I call it?
	I don't know.
	I don't know.
	River Falls.
	River Falls, yes.
	They sent me a hoodie or a sweatshirt.
	Oh.
	And out of the blue, because they won two championships in a row, in 24 and 25.
	Ah, now the monkey comes out of the sleeve.
	You were bought off.
	Well, so I gave him a plug.
	And then I thought about it and I said, where's my Florida stuff?
	Florida's been...
	Now they won the championship in hockey.
	Nothing.
	I had two people promise me Florida stuff.
	Nothing.
	They're just cheap in Florida.
	You can figure out why.
	So, okay, so he continues.
	One awesome Jason.
	He's got his platinum bundle.
	You got that.
	Keep up the good work, he writes, from four more years, four more years, just four more years, get it?
	Yep, for more years.
	For many more years, for more years.
	I like some jobs and relationship conversation once jobs anyway.
	Thank you for your courage.
	Viscount doctor, sir.
	Awesome, some Jason, PhD.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs.
	You've got karma.
	All right.
	Another 1776 from Millennial Fred.
	Then he sent in a note, which I have here.
	He says, the season, Sylvanna, Ohio.
	I requested, one, requested night name Sir Millennial Fred.
	Two, if you must have an exit strategy, please appoint new hosts.
	The show must go on.
	Well, yeah, that'll be Darren and Larry, of course.
	Three, and by the way, they'll do the show, but they have to pay us a VIG.
	You know, we're licensed.
	We're just licensed.
	Oh, yeah.
	Three, hopefully leadership change in Iran will result in a leadership change in Israel.
	And I think that's his note.
	So, okay.
	Thank you very much.
	No, no other jingles or karma.
	So there you go.
	All right.
	Very strange.
	The whole packaging by this guy.
	Interesting, interesting way.
	He was in a big envelope with a cardboard thing with a bunch of little envelopes with money in the envelopes.
	And it was just very, I will say it was spooky.
	Oh, I hear you.
	So we should have these kinds of dates more often.
	Spooky.
	That was Millennial Fred.
	Okay, now there's the one.
	So we go from bad, from good to whatever we have here.
	And it's a big long note.
	I think you can read the second half.
	Dan Fauci.
	Oh, yes, okay.
	And he came in with 103026.
	And he says he apologizes for the long note.
	Now, where's the second half begin?
	Now for my original note.
	Oh, okay.
	This is future night, now night, Sir Dan Knight.
	A lot of nights going on here of West Central Ohio.
	Please deduce me.
	You've been deduced.
	Now he'll keep it short.
	I started listening about the time Biden took office.
	I had heard John for years on Twit and missed his non-woke, non-flaming liberal point of view.
	I wonder who he's referring to there.
	I had been struggling for the last few years listening to the woke guy and this weekend woke rant about Trump and the Republicans.
	I finally couldn't take it anymore.
	So I started listening to No Agenda.
	Since then, I haven't missed an episode and haven't listened to any episodes of that pathetic excuse of a netcast.
	Okay.
	Easy.
	Easy, easy, easy.
	Yes, back off.
	Thanks for all you guys do and keep up with the good work.
	Four more years.
	General Health Karma for my family.
	Jingles, I got ants and rubilizer.
	Sir Dan of the West Central Ohio.
	If approved by the Porridge Committee.
	The Porridge Committee approves.
	The Porridge Committee says yes.
	Yes, we approve.
	Not a problem.
	Here's your ants and rubilizer on the way.
	I got ants.
	I got ants.
	I don't know if you would hear the.
	India.
	Stand by.
	33, 33, 33.
	Robilizer out.
	You've got karma.
	All right.
	Thank you very much.
	And we now go to, let me see.
	This is Steve.
	Steve Schneider in Round Lake, Illinois.
	Steve Schneider in Round Lake, Illinois.
	And he just says, ITM jingles.
	What's that in your mouth?
	And hot pockets.
	Oops.
	What's that in your mouth?
	Hot pockets.
	Oh, I get it.
	Oh, that's cute.
	That's cute.
	Yeah, I got it.
	That's cute.
	I like it.
	It was very nice.
	Archie in Tiggard, Oregon, $1,000 and one cent.
	So that's a nice little palindrome.
	Hello, Adam and John.
	Jingles the Beatles, Yano.
	With this donation, I become a knight of the No Agenda Roundtable.
	I'd like to be known as, henceforth, as Dr. Sir Yano, Commodore 128.
	Commodore 128.
	No one's done that yet.
	That's a good one.
	Please order fresh Strupwafel and rare steaks for the roundtable.
	I kindly request baby incubating karma from my smoking hot wife, house selling and buying karma and prayers as Tiggard has gotten overly crowded.
	And my family is growing.
	Interesting.

	Thank you for your courage, Dr. Sir Yano, Commodore 128.
	Yeah, no.
	You're saying yeah while you're saying no.
	Yeah, no.

	That's a long time ago.
	Dedouche me, please.
	You've been dedouched.
	Listener more nowadays, since the media deconstruction is more than welcome and essential to good mental health, in my opinion.
	Donating for show 1776 seems apt considering the freedom of thought YouTube promote and many support unabashedly.
	Hopefully the PhD will assist me when making the effort to hit people in the mouth who want to know the truth of our life.
	Jobs karma for my wife.
	And then he says, oh, my thing is spraying.
	Protect their freedoms.

	Yes, protect their freedom.
	Trump, I'm going to come.
	I didn't have time to because the spreadsheet came in very late, so I'm kind of doing everything on the fly here.
	Trump.
	Okay, and then what else does he want?
	Rev Alconfrict.
	Okay.
	Got him.
	Got him all lined up.

	Good day, gentlemen.
	I have been waiting for this show to provide well-deserved compensation for the product you provide.
	I hope this message finds you well.
	However, I have some business to tend to and cannot provide the note I wish you fellows to read on the air due to technical difficulties.

	You know, Dr. Kiki was well ahead of her time with the shut up already at science.
	She was way before COVID when we all had to follow the science.
	She's kind of a trendsetter, and I think about it.
	I guess so.

	Now you're talking.
	Numerology, anybody?
	But please give the producer credit to Shafali Amin.
	Amin.
	We've been longtime listeners since the very first show and want to thank you both for years of entertainment and excellent media deconstruction.
	Could we please have some medical career karma as all three of us are entering the final stretches of our training along with whatever Reverend Manning jingle is most readily available?
	Okay, let me find a Manning for you.
	Okay, I got a classic Manning for you.
	Those are always a household favorite.
	Love and light from the Amil siblings.
	Okay.
	So we'll give you...
	I was going to say you have to make sure that's a switcheroo.
	It does it.
	No, it says Shamil.
	It says it goes to Shamil.
	Oh, Shafali.
	Shafali.
	Okay, yes.
	I'll do the Switcheroo right away.
	That's a show of money shot.

	We got it.
	Commodore G is in Cincinnati, Ohio, 343.75.

	And just go for it, John.
	Tell us your peeve about the fisting method of eating snacks on an airplane.
	I see this on the airplane, and it's very annoying, and I think it will result in fights breaking out because it's just so annoying to watch.
	Guy takes his bag of peanuts and throws a pile of them into his palm of his hand, and then he makes a fist around the nuts.
	Around the nuts.

	Here's some value.
	Why don't you make John say Frikandel Brojt Capsatan Broj Varm Vivlis?

	Gentlemen, I apologize for the long delay between donations.
	I'm sure this ad puppy has passed away by now.
	I can only blame my cheap skate of a husband.
	He won't even let me send dog food to the P.O. box.
	Well, you haven't got that advertiser yet.
	Alas, he may be cheap, but at least he's a God-loving patriot.
	Congrats on show 1776.
	What a monumental occasion.
	And it's truly an honor to be a producer for the best podcast in the universe.
	Please send Jobs Carmer for my husband so he can keep drinking.
	So we can keep donating.
	And for jingles, let me have your best round of America jingles, whatever you want.
	Geez, America Jingles?
	That's what she said.
	Oh, I have this one.
	We are here.
	Hashtag America near our hashtag Target soon.
	And this is an American moment.
	All right.
	And then jobs are Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs.
	You thought.
	Okay, we move on to Haley Porter, Pensacola, Florida, 333333.

	Your analysis of Israel and the Middle East strategy in 1774 was amazing.
	Thank you.
	I've had questions about this for years.
	Hot take.
	AI used well.

	Thank you, Kevin.
	Sir Baron John Helmer, Shawnee, Kansas, 333.
	And he says, 1776, bitches.
	No jingles, no karma.
	Sir Baron John Helmer of the Shawnee, Kansas.
	Okay.
	How did I get the whole long one today?
	Greg the Welder.
	Good old Greg.
	And he is in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, and he gave 333.
	And he says, I was punched in the mouth and called a douchebag by Tom.
	Is this the last show?
	By Tomonymous.
	Yes.
	So I require a dedouching.
	You've been dedouched.
	I love the show.
	Forget my tardiness.
	I love the show and listen to every episode.
	I've punched a few mouths, but a real donation is passed due.
	Thanks for always giving praise to welders.
	Yes.
	Well, do we praise welders?
	I just tell people to become welders.
	Well, that's high praise coming from you.
	And other trades on the show.
	And I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates the love.
	Some house buying karma would be great.
	You don't have to read the rest of the note on the show.
	Oh, nice.
	But I wanted to make a statement regarding Senator Mike Lee's public land sale proposal.
	I'm an advocate for all public lands.
	I'm going to read some of this.
	Yeah.
	These lands are owned by the American public.
	Us, we own them.
	I think we had a clip.
	I don't know if you ever played the clip where they're going to sell some public land.
	It amounts to 0.00% of that.
	That was me.
	Yes.
	No, no, it's 0.75%.
	Yeah.
	Max.
	Big deal.
	Max.
	And they're making a big fuss.
	Oh, you're selling the land.
	We own the land.
	They're managed by the federal government and trusts for the American people.
	These lands are and always will be more valuable to the American people as wild places and places of recreation and resources.
	None of it should be sold.
	Even 0.075, oh, he's against it.
	Yeah.
	Particularly when proposed by a senator whose top contributors consist of Microsoft and the Blackstone Group.
	You know, this is actually President Trump's proposal because he wants to build housing on it and some of it for oil.
	But I don't think it'll go for oil because no one is drilling, baby.
	No one's doing new wells.
	Don't have to.
	No.
	So, yeah, there you go.
	It'll go towards your medicine.
	It goes on to promote these lands staying with the government.
	And so, okay, it's a reasonable position.
	That's your position.
	You're sticking with it, Greg the Welder.
	Jason Edmonds, Johnson City, Tennessee, 31776.
	I see what you did there.
	ITM, John and Adam, please accept this remittance of 31776 plus fees.

	Appreciate that.
	Sir Brian Tobiason in Gardner, Kansas.
	30888.
	ITM gents.
	I just noticed I had been around.
	It's been a year since I donated, and it's unacceptable.
	You guys are a major part of my week, and I can't imagine how incredibly miserable I'd be without getting my news from, just getting my news from the M5M.
	Thanks for all you do.
	And can I please get a jobs comer for my expansion of my real estate and architecture photography firm into Columbus, Missouri from Kansas City?
	Any No Agenda producers who need photos of buildings in any matter for any purchase can check out kchomephotography.com.
	I do have reasonable travel rates, maybe even to Tokyo, he says to Duchess Astrid.
	Yes.
	And jingles.
	Well, they're architects, So they could use a photographer once in a while.
	I bet they can.
	What's that in your mouth?
	Don't trust China.
	And little girl, yay, thank you for your courage and hard work and keeping me and my family sane.
	Sir Brian Tobiason, Viscount of Chiefs Kingdom.
	What's that in your mouth?
	Donald Trump, don't trust China.
	China is SO.
	Jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs.
	Next box.
	Andrew St. Clair, Salem, Oregon, 308, John and Adam, even with this and my past donations, my V for V falls around $1 per show or 33 cents per hour, which still doesn't feel like adequate value.
	I encourage all producers to do some quick amygdala math to determine your amount of shows listened to versus of amount donated.
	How much is your brain maintenance worth?
	Love you guys.
	Heart emoji.
	Thank you.
	I love that.
	Got a heart in there somehow.
	Yeah.
	Michael Tasler in Urbondale, Iowa, 26322.
	He's the first associate executive producer on today's wonderful show.
	250 donation to the show number 1776-2026 celebrating Independence Day 250th anniversary one year early.
	Dedouche me, please.
	Call it Independent.
	Sorry?
	No, go ahead, sorry.
	Dedouche him.
	You've been dedouched.
	Call it the Independence Day donation.
	You can run the promotion through the next year.
	No, that's an idea.
	Don't give John any ideas.
	That was it.
	It's running through this promotion, the 1776 promotion, runs through the 4th of July.
	Oh, oh, really?
	Oh, okay.
	Well, that's good to know.
	We move on to Jay Surplus in Greenville, South Carolina.
	Associate Executive Producer, credit for you with $250.
	ITM John Adam, this Semper 5 donation was for episode 1775, the year our Marine Corps came alive.
	That's right.
	On November 10th, the Marines will celebrate 250 years of honorable and faithful service, but we don't need parades as we celebrate our birthday every year.
	This donation was the suggestion of my smoking hot Marine wife, who was listening live in the car with our three human resources.
	I was hit in the mouth in 2018, and of course, my attempt to be deduced on Sunday broke PayPal.
	I won't take so long to donate again.
	Yes, it did break PayPal.
	I'm going to deduce you again.
	Make sure you got it.
	Thank you for the best podcast in the universe.
	Jingles, Judge Janine, Bomb him and Obama.
	You might die.
	In fact, I would say bomb them, bomb them, and then bomb them again.
	You might die.
	Yes.
	That's right.
	Yeah, I think some of these donations were from last week.
	Could be.
	Because we had that cutoff at 3 o'clock.
	Yes.
	Sean Holman, no relation in Noblesville, Indiana, I don't think.
	21911.
	John and Adam, your deconstruction is biblical Ephesians 6, 12 through 13.
	Ah, the full armor of God.
	The full armor of God.
	Resist we much in the evil day.
	Maria Goretti, pray for us.
	Saint Maria Goretti.
	Saint Maria Goretti.
	Oh, I missed.
	Where's the S-T?
	Yes, okay.
	But resist we much.
	We must.
	And we will much about that be committed.
	And Eli the Coffee Guys in Bensonville, Illinois comes in with 21776, 21776.
	Best show number ever.
	An early happy Independence Day to all.
	Just remember, those that rebelled against the British crown did so over unjust laws and taxation that was a fraction of the burden we have today.
	Let us celebrate the spirit of those that fought for our liberation this July 4th.
	And this is a guy who does not celebrate Juneteenth, people.
	I'll tell you that.
	On the 249th birthday of this great nation, coffee became the drink of America because the English drank tea.
	Do the patriotic thing.
	Brew coffee.
	Grab a bag of gigawatt and start your morning rite.
	Thank you for your curds and stay caffeinated, says Eli the Coffee Guy, gigawattcoffee roasters.com.
	So there's a little anomaly in the narrative about taxation without representation.
	We're being overtaxed.
	And the American Revolution is one of the things I study when I was at school.
	And there's an irony to it.
	We actually weren't being overtaxed.
	What had happened was King George, and this really, just completely, the American Revolution completely baffled King George III because of all the bitching about taxation.
	He had lowered the taxes.
	They'd actually lowered the taxes on the colonies, but put an enforcement group in to collect the taxes.
	We weren't paying the taxes.
	And it was actually having to pay the taxes that got everybody riled up.
	And of course, baffled him.
	Oh, I lowered the taxes, and now what are they all pissed off about?
	Well, that's interesting.
	Unintended consequences.
	Okay, where are we?
	I'm on Rick Bunch.
	I got lucky on this one.

	Mark.
	This is the last one.
	And it's another Whopper.
	It is a Whopper.
	Mark Klill.
	What do you kill?
	Kilgbean?
	Kill.
	It's some Irish name of some sort.
	I can't pronounce it.
	Mark.
	Colin.
	He's in Glendale, California.
	Came with 200 bucks.
	Hi, John and Adam.
	Mark here from Dating Detain D-A-T-A-I-N-G.io again.
	Vibe coding with no agenda on.
	Oh, he's coding with no agenda on from LA Starbucks parking lot.
	Well, vibe coding means he's doing it with the AI, which is a very specific kind of deal.
	Vibe come vibe coding, man.
	Well, he's vibe coding from the no agenda while listening to our show in the LA Starbucks parking lot stealing their Wi-Fi.
	Oh, very good.
	Yeah, that's the way to do it.
	Thank you for reading this novella I sent before launch.
	I was half convinced you'd torched me for the length.
	You mean this lousy length?
	But you were both gracious and supportive.
	We were.
	Which meant a lot to a broke founder.
	Oh, he's a broke founder running on nerves and espresso.
	Poor guy.
	Broke.
	No wonder.
	The tang is less buggy and better than ever.
	Cupid AI is now busy writing bios and lining up meet cutes.
	Meet cutes.
	Meet cutes.
	Okay.
	There's a lot of code in here.
	Yeah, I guess.
	I'll even generate an image of how it imagines your future wife.
	Mine's the spitting image of the IG model.
	I can't get out of my head.
	You can also use it with existing partners and even friends now.
	I haven't found Cuba's limit quite yet, but this is a guy in a deep hole.
	Yeah, he's IG model, Instagram model.
	That's what it is, IG model.
	You got to get out of that hole, buddy.
	But I did find mine when my head went through my co-founder's kitchen cabinet a couple of weeks ago.
	Trying to snap him out of it.
	Luckily, I was only blind temporarily.
	I guess we won't fast track voice mode quite yet.
	And I got to learn how to appreciate things like seeing the sunrise again.
	Okay.
	He has, he talks about the V4V model.
	Here's what he says.
	He says, after a couple of months of A-B testing, all sorts of ads on a very limited budget, I can confidently say the No Agenda show was by far the best performing per dollar spent with the best retention and most gracious early users.
	Not a single one sandbagged our app store rating, even with all the bugs they ran into.
	While we might not have quite the budget I had hoped for, I'll do my best to keep the ad spend flowing to my favorite podcasts.
	While we do our best to couple up the No Agenda Nation, download Dataing, D-A-T-I-N-G, AI Matchmaker on iOS, or just visit dataing.io.
	Oh, I see what this was.
	This is a very elaborate ad.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I'd say Dataing.
	I would go for a different name.
	Yeah, I'm not exactly all in on the Data Ing.
	It sounds Chinese.
	Thank you very much to these executive and associate executive producers and PhDs to be.
	Thank you very much for your incredible graciousness and what is the word I'm looking for?
	Generosity.
	Generosity.
	Thank you.
	That's the word I was looking for.
	We appreciate it so much.
	We know you love the numbers.
	This really helps the show through some of those slower times.
	And of course, everybody can support us.
	This 70-76 promotion remains throughout July 4th, as it should be.
	Go to noagendadonations.com, and we will be thanking people $50 and above in our second segment, which will be coming up shortly.
	Thanks again to these associate executive producers.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Shut up, Slade.
	Squat!
	Shut up.
	Before we go too far into any new topics, I want to get these two clips out of the way.
	Okay.
	Because this is news that nobody's covering.
	All right.
	We'd love that.
	Yeah, are you familiar with the Voice of America scandal?
	Scandal?
	Why no?
	Of course you're not.
	Why would you be?
	I know nothing about the Voice of America scandal.
	This is a scandal.
	I thought it was as if everybody was fired.
	I thought everybody was fired.
	What are they still doing there?
	Well, a lot of people just disappeared.
	It turns out that the Voice of America and that whole operation run by, you know, whoever, was a Chinese spy ring.
	No.
	Well, listen to the clips.
	Spies, Lies, and Mismanagement.
	That was the title of this Wednesday's House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on the U.S. Agency for Global Media.
	The Trump administration has denounced the infiltration of foreign adversaries into the voice of America, which once was a beacon of democracy for the world.
	Over the past 15 to 20 years, the agency has become a significant national security risk.
	They hire a shockingly high number of foreign nationals, and they conduct subpar security vetting, so bad that top intelligence agencies revoked this agency's ability to do even the most basic background checks.
	Lawmakers pointed out the undercoverage and self-censoring of content covering the Chinese Communist Party.
	Forced organ harvesting, where 50,000, 70,000 young people average age 28 get their organs taken.
	They're Uyghurs, their Falun Gong practitioners.
	That the past leadership of VOA Manner and Language Services conducted annual meetings with the Chinese embassy in Washington.
	Trump administration senior advisor Carrie Lake alerted lawmakers of over 500 of Voice of America's personnel who have disappeared since her audits began.
	Many who actually provided false information to be credentialed and received visas to work in the U.S. Wow, this is good.
	Where is the news media?
	Where is the M5M on this story?
	This is a great story.
	Nah, the too busy other thing.
	Two minutes of the daddy thing.
	Yeah, the daddy thing.
	Yeah, that's really important.
	The daddy thing.
	Exactly.
	It's part two of this.
	And Kerry Lake, senior advisor at the U.S. Agency for Global Media, testified at a House hearing today.
	She's described the challenges the agency has been facing from attempts at foreign influence.
	Our Washington correspondent, Luis Eduardo Martinez, has more on this story.
	However, it's clear that USAGM cannot continue to operate as it has in recent times.
	Drastic measures have to be taken to ensure that every taxpayer dollar works for where those dollars come from.
	The American people.
	Not Xi Jinping, not Vladimir Putin, not the Ayatollah.
	And one of VOA's television editors even publicly pledged his allegiance to the PRC.
	The VOA allowed the communist Vietnamese and Chinese embassies in D.C. to pressure them into removing videos, cutting short live interviews, or changing story angles.
	Democratic lawmakers questioned the Trump administration's foreign policy and even revived debates over the 2020 elections in the U.S. First, I'd like to address President Trump's recent strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, an action taken without consulting the committee or securing congressional authorization.
	You have to this day refused to acknowledge that President Trump lost the 2020 elections.
	The U.S. Agency for Global Media has an annual budget of $950 million, a budget that has consistently grown over the past decade, opposite to global trends of news outlets are decreasing in budget and modernizing their operations.
	Reporting from Washington, D.C., Luis Eluardo Martinez.
	$950 million.
	Can you believe that?
	Yeah.
	That's a billion, baby.
	For Chinese propaganda.
	Unbelievable.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	And who was running that show?
	Well, there was that board of governors.
	You had some people that you know their names.
	Mr. Carlson used to run it.
	His dad, that is.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Broadcast board of governors.
	Let me see who most recently was on the broadcast board of governors because they are no good.
	Well, of course, now the website has Carrie Lake up there.
	So I don't know if we can.
	I would have to go to the Wayback Machine probably and get some details.
	This is a scandal of epic proportions that is not being covered at all.
	Yeah.
	And you'd think Carrie Lake would be all over this.
	Well, she is.
	She's the one that brought it up.
	Well, I know, but she's not getting the ink that she deserves.
	No, you'd think that she would be able to.
	Here we go.
	Kenneth Jaron, Democrat.
	Kathleen Matthews.
	She is Public Affairs Officer for Marriott International.
	Okay.
	Michelle Guida, American business person, Former government official, Republican, Jamie Fly, American Media Executive President and Chief Executive Officer of Radio Free Europe and Liberty.
	That's the guy who, by the way, looks like a and oh, Marco Rubio was also on that.
	Hmm.
	No, he's got to be called out.
	He needs to definitely be called out.
	And he oh, no, he's new.
	He, he, he got, he got Jamie Flynn.
	He came in with Kerry Lake, yeah.
	Okay, well, he's probably part of the reason that got busted out.
	Who's this Jamie Fly guy?
	Where is he from?
	Council on Foreign Relations, German Marshall Fund, Republican National Committee.
	The German Marshall Fund, we have talked about them in the past.
	This is some sort of a very sketchy, spooky operation.
	Yeah, senior fellow and co-director, Alliance for Securing Democracy.
	Hmm.
	Chinese.
	Oh, in August 2023, he started at Palantir Technologies full-time as a senior consultant.
	There's Palantir, Whitney Webb, get on this guy.
	Something wrong with him.
	Yeah.
	So, yes, you ask me why the news media isn't covering that because they're too busy covering stories like this, which is plagiarism.
	Meanwhile, President Trump now sharing a video online that's raising eyebrows.
	ABC's Lionel Moyes begins our coverage.
	Overnight, with a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran appearing to hold, President Trump sharing a video on his social media account featuring a parody song about bombing Iran.
	The video is showing American B-2 bombers and including a lyric about putting Iran's supreme leader in a box.
	Head to a mosque, gonna throw some rocks, tell me Ayatollah gonna put you in a box, It comes as the White House pushes back on early intelligence that indicates Saturday night's bombing only set Iran's nuclear program back by a few months.
	Yeah, that's what they're busy with.
	But we, you know, that is kind of, it's a little irksome.
	You know, people like, hey, it's not the noj.
	No, it's not the no.
	I mean, we have bomb-bomb Iran.
	But we've had that for, let me see, the oldest copy I have.
	Oh, we even had an open and closer here.
	That's from 2018.
	It's exactly the same.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	That's how it works.
	Yeah.
	Do we get any credit?
	No, yeah, credit?
	Hello?
	No, zero.
	Zero credit.
	No, it's because we're not what?
	We're not students.
	We're not.
	I don't know.
	It's like we're a secret agency.
	Let's see.
	I have one distressing clip to play.
	A distressing clip.
	Okay.
	Well, we have to.
	Which brings me to that.
	It could have been brought up during the mil you conversation because there's a milieu issue, obviously, involved here.
	If you listen to the whole clip, have you heard about the five, another story that nobody's paged is a local story?
	It's a great story.
	It should have been picked up nationally about the fifth graders trying to kill one of the girls' boyfriends.
	No.
	Fifth graders?
	No.
	Oh, God.
	And where is this taking place?
	Arizona?
	Arizona.
	Let's listen.
	Just end him.
	That was the goal of a group of 10 and 11-year-old girls who surprise police say wanted to kill a boy at school.
	The motive?
	He's accused of cheating on one of them, so she wants him dead.
	The murder plot was simple.
	According to the police report, four fifth grade students at Legacy Traditional School's West Surprise campus planned to lure a classmate to the charter school's outside bathroom and stab him in the stomach.
	And each girl had a role to play to get away with it.
	One would bring the knife.
	Another would forge a suicide note to make it seem like he took his own life.
	And someone would act as a lookout while the other carried out the stabbing.
	And to avoid fingerprints on the murder weapon, they would wear gloves.
	Documents say the friends came up with the plan during lunch and recess on October 1st.
	Legacy administrators worked with the school resource officer to investigate when students who overheard the plot came forward.
	The next day, their backpacks were searched and the suspects were individually questioned with their parents present.
	All four children were then arrested for threatening and disorderly conduct misdemeanor charges.
	The police report says three of the students showed remorse, but the fourth would smile and laugh while making excuses for their actions.
	I blame TikTok.
	I can blame TikTok, but there's also one of them, the one that's smiling and laughing as a psycho.
	This is well known in certain environments where you have gangs that have a psycho leader who leads these other dummies to follow them because they're nuts.
	This was a terrible story.
	What is wrong with today's editors?
	This is a story that should be all over the place.
	And no, you're hearing it on No Agenda.
	It's got headline written all over it, baby.
	If it bleeds, it leads.
	Great.
	It's dynamite.
	I have a boots on the ground I'd like to share.
	Because it's just one of those things.
	We keep talking about Soros, the old Soros, who's practically dead.
	The Alex Soros.
	This is the, oh, Alex Soros did take over.
	Well, the minute he married Huma Abedin, we already knew something was wrong.
	But listen to this.
	Good evening.
	I hope you are well.
	I hope this note finds you well.
	I love your show.
	I've been listening for a long, long time.
	I donate when I'm able.
	This is about Alex Soros.
	He was a student in my ninth grade algebra class in Westchester County, New York when I taught there.
	I had to have him removed for his behavior, particularly his propensity to eat pencils in class.
	This was a small private school.
	Particularly his propensity to eat pencils in class.
	This was a small private school as you can imagine he would go to.
	Even in a small class, he was difficult to handle.
	Before removal, I had a parent-teacher conference with George and his young wife.
	The conference was about the behavior, of course, but dad did not say much.
	He mainly grumbled in a low voice.
	That's him talking.
	That's him talking.
	Alex was certainly not dumb, and he knew a hell of a lot about socialism.
	For a rich kid, I chaperoned him and several others on a trip to Spain.
	Oh my God, the longest two weeks of my life.
	I will end with this.
	I liked Alex very much.
	He was bright, funny, but wow, what a nutty child.
	Thank you for reading if you're able to get this.
	That's a great boots on the ground right there.
	Top of the line.
	He's a pencil eater.
	What does that say?
	What does that say about the scientific?
	Well, we must have a few head shrinkers out there that can tell us.
	Yes.
	What does it say about a child who eats pencils?
	Grok.
	Pencils.
	Grok.
	A child eating pencils may be exhibiting PICA, P-I-C-A, a condition where someone craves or consumes non-food items like wood, graphite, or erasers.
	This can stem from sensory-seeking behavior, developmental stage, stress or anxiety.
	There you go.
	Well, risks, choking or intestinal blockage.
	Yeah, duh.
	Okay, thanks, AI.
	Well, I'm sure we have, you're right, I'm sure we have someone out there who can tell us about children who eat pencils and their evil parents with their young wives.
	So our buddy Roundy.
	Yes.
	Have you seen his latest Edgar the Puppet?
	No, I love Edgar the Puppet.
	I wish he still did art for us because, man, do we need it?
	Tell me about his latest.
	So Edgar the Puppet, I think, is well known.
	It's the insult comic dog, only funnier.
	Yes, a lot funnier.
	And he doesn't have, but he doesn't have a catchphrase for me to poop on.
	He needs a catchphrase.
	Yeah, actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea.
	But people should go check this one out.
	This is he went to the gay parade.
	In D.C. I think so, yeah.
	Yeah, yeah, that's good.
	And so I only have a few couple of clips from it, but this is the way it goes.
	He starts right away with a top.
	And by the way, and he told me that everybody, because he was insulting the gays, basically there to insult people.
	Yes.
	That's what he does.
	He says that everyone was really nice.
	So I want to make that clear.
	No one tried to punch him out, which surprises me.
	Right.
	All right.
	So he got this woman right at the beginning who was just some non-binary chick or guy.
	You can't even tell.
	But he starts off with a bang with this.
	Did he ask her what's wrong with her?
	Name your diseases in 10 seconds.
	All of them?
	Yes.
	Okay, so I've got dermatillomania.
	I've got endometriosis, fibromyalgia, plantar fasciitis.
	Do you want to do the mental ones too?
	Yes.
	Absolutely hard.
	Okay, we got borderline.
	No, actually.
	Borderline personality disorder.
	Major depressive disorder.
	Generalized anxiety disorder.
	A weight HD.
	In case that wasn't on the end, a stutter.
	In June, the world has been taken over by Pride Month, and all the other holidays are taking the back seat.
	Wow.
	That person is Cluster B. That's how you just sum it up right there.
	Cluster B personality.
	Wow.
	Yeah, so this is the whole thing went like this.
	And here's the second, there's a little follow-up, which wasn't, it's not as funny, but it's just to give you a sense of it.
	And people should go find this video and watch it.
	Even Santa has got a sideline gig work in security.
	It's time for the World Pride Parade.
	They've gayified everything.
	Yay!
	Hi, buddy.
	Every gender is gathered.
	All 1,000 of them.
	Then he gets away with it.
	That's pretty cool.
	But he needs a catchphrase.
	He needs a catchphrase.
	I agree.
	How about here's the catchphrase.
	That's fake and gay.
	We should do that.
	Something like that.
	You almost have his voice.
	I've got another career going here.
	I'm getting there.
	Hey, man.
	You'll be doing the voiceover work for a cartoon company.
	Give me some TikToks.
	I need some TikToks to round out this very stressful show.
	What are the TikToks?
	All right.
	Yeah, we do have to get to the end because my tip of the day is a little longer than usual too.
	I thought you already gave your tip of the day.
	How to recognize a lesbian?
	We can call it that if you want.
	No, no, no.
	That's okay.
	A couple of dudes with anti-Trump rants.
	Oh, here number one.
	Dear MAGA, you are traitors to our country.
	And your golden god is a treasonous pig.
	And you will pay for the crimes you have committed against our country.
	I can reassure you of that.
	Now, I'm not going to be the one that's doing this.
	I'm not going to.
	The courts, the world are going to hold you accountable.
	Because, you see, you are terrorists.
	And what you have done here by supporting this man and this illegal act of war in Iran is going to have massive consequences.
	But I know that I'm on the right side of history.
	And I know that there are millions, millions more of us that are on the right side of history.
	And just like those filthy fucking Nazis, you will be wiped.
	And I can't wait for it.
	I cannot wait for it.
	I cannot wait for the marshals to come in and arrest all of them.
	Oh, bro.
	And they will.
	They stole this election.
	They did it with Elon's help.
	They will take all of his money.
	All of it.
	It's going to be the greatest thing to ever happen in America.
	And it will be because of President Trump.
	And it'll be great.
	He'll make America great again by sacrificing his existence in a federal prison for the treason he's committed against our country.
	Cluster B is not reserved for women.
	That's the point of these two clips.
	It's not just a bunch of nutcase women.
	You got these guys out there.
	So are you happy now?
	Sorry.
	I'm sorry.
	This is part two.
	This is the Second guy.
	So, are you happy, MAGA?
	You happy?
	Happy now.
	You happy you voted for the criminal?
	Because now he's a war criminal, too.
	He just, without provocation, attacked a foreign nation without congressional approval, too, by the way.
	Something that I'm pretty sure is illegal.
	But he attacked a foreign nation without provocation, which does make him a war criminal now.
	And you voted him in.
	And he says in his little truthiness thing that he's got that he wants peace now.
	You think there's going to be peace when he attacked a foreign country without provocation?
	You think the Iranians and the Russians and all their other allies are just going to sit down and let this happen?
	Because we've got a big military, a big military that doesn't have enough people in it?
	There are slots in the Navy that haven't been filled for almost a decade in some places.
	We've got a third of our ships sitting in docks that need to be serviced, but we don't have enough people to service them.
	But yeah, but let's go to war.
	Let's go to war against a nation that did nothing to us.
	Good job, MAGA.
	Are you happy?
	Now, the real question is, is Mike Johnson going to do anything about this?
	Because the war crime just happened and he should be impeached.
	And Mike Johnson should be starting that process right now.
	Is he?
	Of course not.
	Not a chance in his evangelical bullshit prosperity Bible hell.
	I'm so glad I'm too old and my kids are too young to go into the military.
	But how many of yours aren't?
	You're about to get the call-up.
	Good luck.
	Does not age well, of course.
	No, it doesn't age the next day.
	He forgot to throw in the seven mountain strategy.
	That would have been perfect.
	He needed to add that.
	Yes.
	I'm going to ask Rob, the constitutional lawyer, to write an essay of 400 words or less about the legality of President Trump's strike on Iran.
	And I knew we had dinner at Rob and Maggie's house up in Canyon Lake.
	That guy, he builds his own electric guitars.
	He's got about 20 of them.
	Oh, really?
	He cooks a magnificent lasagna.
	And I'm a lasagna connoisseur, I might say.
	And he has a 1961 fire-red T-Bird convertible in his garage that belonged to his grandmother, completely mint.
	I mean, you could eat the lasagna off of the engine.
	And he's a lawyer.
	It's pretty amazing.
	A lawyer we all like.
	That's well, so far.
	So far, exactly.
	You never know.
	I'm going to show my support by donating to no agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do this.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
	Yeah, on no agenda.
	In the morning...
	We got some fresh and some classic Iran end of show mixes coming your way, ones you might not have heard in a while.
	We got quite a lot of nights.
	We got PhDs.
	We got title changes.
	We got birthdays.
	John's tip of the day.
	But first, John's going to thank our supporters for episode 1776, $50 and above.
	Starting with Melody.
	Melody.
	Melody Hawley in Tucson, Arizona, 18702 is a birthday, 66th birthday to her husband, Knight John, protector of the pocket protectors.
	All right.
	So we got that.
	Ben Sterling in College Station, Texas.
	That's somewhere down there.
	177.60.
	Dude named Ben.
	I don't know if you said anything there.
	We want to do anything for him.
	No.
	What, Ben Sterling?
	Yeah, he's the dude named Ben, Defender of Megawatts, Protector of the Electric Grid.
	He gives us all the electric grids on the ground.
	He's only asked as you remind everybody to check out Two Good Old Boys with Me and Gene.
	They got their own podcast.
	Oh, that's right.
	Yes, yes.
	Just some good old bars.
	Yep, that show.
	Sarcastic the Nomad in Skagen, Denmark, 177.60.
	And 177.60 is a good one.
	That's a 1776 donation taken to the dimes.
	Curtis Kuhl in East Strouzburg, Pennsylvania, 177.60.
	Yeah, and he is a knighting, so you have to read it.
	Hey, I hope this message finds you well.
	Thank you for your attention.
	Did this matter?
	Who needs new CV axles?
	Take my Christian cash and knight me.
	Please knight me, Sir Curtis of the Kuhl, K-U-H-L, protector of the gap and I-80 Road Warrior.
	But wait, there's more.
	Regarding the immigration conversation lately, I want to mention something called parole in place, in case it could be useful for someone out there.
	It's a rule created under Obama, no homo, just reading what he says, that allows active duty and veterans to sponsor a non-citizen spouse who's already in the continental U.S. Why is this important?
	It prevents the non-citizen spouse from having to return to his or her country of citizenship to finalize the green card process, meaning it's all handled domestically and eliminates the international travel part of the process.
	Results may vary.
	Consult your immigration attorney and ask if parole in place is right for you.
	Random question.
	You've talked about the happy 3x3 music before, but I've been wondering if the outro music, and then it's cut off.
	It's Herb Albert.
	I know that.
	That may be the answer.
	Okay.
	And he will be nice.
	I did not know about Parole in Place.
	That's a good tip.
	Another tip.
	Nicholas Voss in Bayside and New York, 177.60.

	John and Adam, thank you for the mind-expanding sanity.
	I dealt with breast is this the one?
	yeah, I dealt with breast cancer for much of 23-24, and I'm sure that it was your show that kept me strong, sane, and filled with hope.
	Well, I wish we could take credit.
	I'll be turning 60 on 627, and what better way to celebrate this year of the snake, Chinese, and all of the shedding of skin than by making a donation.

	She has nice handwriting you can't read.
	I don't know if you know what that means.
	She continues, your discussion of some baby formula.
	Ah, baby formula.
	It was in 1953.
	My mother was told in no uncertain terms that it wasn't great that fee would you should choose modern formula, baby formula by the doctors, of course.
	Yes, of course.
	I've got an essay I'm going to do on this.
	Do you remember the, I don't know if you remember this, I sure do, where every kid ended up having to get a tonsillectomy.
	Oh, yeah.
	Sure.
	Yeah.
	Doctors?
	Not me.
	I never got one.
	Nope.
	I still got my tonsils.
	My tonsils be happy.
	The experts reason that nature had put breasts on women for a reason and used hers in that.
	That's about it.
	Okay.
	I can read this, so let me just.
	I don't know how you can read it, but okay.
	Okay.
	Tolmanoso determines that breastfeeding was passe and modern formula was much better.
	Luckily for me, my mother was smarter than the experts and reasoned that nature had put breasts on women for a reason and used hers for that purpose.
	That's right.
	Great shows.
	Now always fun and educational, Carolyn says.
	All right.
	Thank you, Carolyn.
	Yeah.
	The breasts are there for a reason.

	I want to thank these people for making show 1776 a huge success.
	And I did get a note that I need to share because we've done this wrong several times, including episode 693, where we keep talking about the origins of the double nickels on the dime.
	And he says, hey, you incorrectly credited Sergeant Fred with a double nickels on the dime donation.
	And he forwarded his note from February 9th, 2015.
	I wanted to set the record straight.
	I actually created the 5510 donation.
	This is Tom Bushy, back in 2010.
	I think it's actually one of the longest running producer-created donations on the show, way longer than Swazilnoff or Niner 9 or 9 or 9er.
	I take a certain amount of pride in this donation, as well as my knighthood that I eventually achieved almost exclusively by making double nickels on the dime donations.
	Okay.
	So thank you very much.
	This came from who?
	This came from Tom Bushy, Bushy, B-U-S-H-E-Y, Tom Bushy.
	Make sure we credit it.
	Yes, we will remember Tom Bushy.
	We know we won't.
	We're just going to have to send another note, and I think you can keep sending notes and we'll keep reading them.
	Thank you all very much.

	So it's time for our end of show ISO.
	We tend to do them now, you know, real ISOs, I think, kind of.
	I have three.
	You have just one?
	Hello?
	Oh, you've muted yourself.
	This is on you.
	You've muted yourself.
	There you go.
	What?
	You have one ISO?
	That's it?
	One ISO?
	Yeah, play your three and I'll play mine.
	I mean, I'll push mine if you got a good one.
	I don't know.
	Let's listen.
	Your job is to tell the people of the world the truth about America.
	Too long.
	That's too bad.
	Here's one from Trump.
	The biggest load that we've seen.
	I think this is the one.
	That's a good one for the regular clips, though.
	How about this one?
	And I'm going to put this in my mouth right now.
	You talked over.
	Play it again.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm doing Trump.
	And I'm going to put this in my mouth right now.
	That's gross.
	And I'm going to put this in my mouth right now.
	That's Laura Loomer, baby.
	All right.
	Well, you should.
	Oh, that's from the dog food.
	Yes, it is.
	Okay, I got an AI one that I liked.
	These two guys are great.
	Am I right?
	Oh, man.
	That's not even halfway natural.
	Am I right?
	These two guys are great.
	Am I right?
	You should put two question marks in your prompt.
	I don't know, man.
	Okay, well, next time I'll do that.
	The biggest load that we've seen.
	I like that one the best, honestly, but up to you.
	You choose.
	Wait, wait, the biggest...
	In fact, why don't you do that right now?
	Dumps, big dumps, and then play that.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	Dumps.
	Where is the Trump?
	Trump.
	No, we have it.
	Yeah, we have it.
	No, we have.
	We have.
	We're getting there.
	Here we go.
	I got it at least.
	Okay, I got it here.
	Dead air.
	They did dumps.
	They call them dumps.
	Big, massive dumps.
	The biggest load that we've seen.
	All right.
	Which one do you want?
	Ryan?
	I'll take the Trump one.
	Okay, there you go.
	And now, everybody, it is time for your top of the day.
	It's your tip of the day.
	Just the tip with JCD and sometimes at once.
	Created by Dana Bernetti.
	All right.
	So this is going to be I have the recipe in the next newsletter.
	Get on the newsletter.
	Yes.
	I'm going to this tip of the day is to use is to if you're going to cook rice use basmati rice.
	I think you learn how to cook it.
	I think we've discussed basmati rice, but that is an official tip of the day.
	No, because the actual tip is always I have a couple brands I like.
	Fond brand is a good one.
	They have a sella, which means sella means it's been parboiled.
	But wait, now explain.
	Why should we be cooking basmati rice?
	Why do we need to learn this?
	What is the tip?
	This tip because it's a fabulous product is the reason.
	Once you start cooking basmati rice, you know what you're doing.
	You will never cook other rice.
	You just say, screw it.
	I'm not going to bother with it.
	But you have to understand a couple of things, which will be in the recipe, but I'll mention it here.
	But first of all, the tip is Pakistani, not Indian.
	Oh, boy, this is a cultural issue.
	Yes, it is, and for good reason.
	The Pakistani product is superior and a lot cleaner.
	You buy Indian Basmati, you will be rinsing it forever.
	Are you saying Indians are dirty?
	I'm saying the rice is.
	Okay.
	And if you can find it, some of it comes out of Bangladesh, but I've seen some out of Pakistan.
	Baby Basmati.
	Wow.
	That's a rice.
	But it's hard to come by.
	You can get it on the West Coast here and there.
	But baby Basmati is even the best.
	The two brands I like are a regular Basmati or Fawn and Zebra.
	But there's lots of good brands if they're from Pakistan.
	So do I smell a new book coming?
	Yes, it's the Dvorak Family Cookbook.
	Oh, oh, this one will actually happen because Jay's involved and Mimi's involved.
	The Dvorak Family Cookbook.
	Wow.
	When can we expect this, Jim?
	Pretty soon.
	Oh, and any minute now.
	Well, I'm not going to make promises, but it's coming.
	It's almost done, actually.
	And I have Rachel, a copy editor, lined up.
	Oh, I'm so happy.
	But anyway, so Pakistan, Basmati is what you're looking for.
	And skip the Indian stuff.
	And the last thing I'll say, it's a boiled rice.
	If you see a recipe telling you how to cook it and they don't tell you to rinse it a lot, they don't know what they're doing.
	If you have a recipe, they tell you to cook it one half cups of water, one cup of rice, they don't know what they're doing.
	Throw that recipe out.
	It's a boiled rice.
	You boil it in a pile of water, lots of water, and you pour the water off when it's cooked.
	You don't boil it like Chinese rice where you got the one and a half cups or a cup or this or that.
	Bullcrap.
	There it is, everybody.
	A very clear tip of the day.
	Creative rice for you and me.
	Just the tip with JCD and sometimes at a created by Dana Bernetti.
	Wow, wow, wow, wow.
	You're getting in everybody's face there about the rice.
	This is a tremendous tip.
	Tipoftheday.net, noagendafun.com.
	That brings us to the end of this very patriotic episode, 1776.
	Thank you, everybody, for supporting the show with your value for value.
	We love you.
	We really do.
	Coming up next, we have a walk through the mind, poverty as a mindset.
	It's Billy Bones.
	Billy Bones on the podcast on the stream.
	You can stay tuned to trollroom.io if you're listening there or on your modern podcast app.
	End of show mixes.
	We have Hugh Allison with a very timely end of show mix, which he actually put out just two weeks before the Iran 12-day war.
	David Kechter with a classic and Sir Michael Anthony with a classic as well.
	And we look forward to seeing y'all on Wednesday.
	Until then, coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country right here in Fredericksburg in the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from Northern Silicon Valley, where everybody says 1776, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return on Sunday.
	Please join us for more of your media deconstruction right here on No Agenda.
	And remember us at NoAgendadonations.com.
	Until then, adios movos!
	A hooey hooey!
	And such.
	It's just blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	It's always a couple weeks away.
	Well, that's just for the goo.
	It'll take much longer to package it into a missile.
	Yeah, they keep changing the target.
	A week away, a week away, a couple weeks away.
	For a year next month.
	For a freaking year.
	For a decade.
	A week away, a week away.
	A week away, a week away.
	Nuclear!
	Now they are only days or weeks away from having enough uranium goo.
	However, Millie says it will still take quite a period of time to package that into a missile.
	If Israel sends a couple of missiles along the way.
	A week away, a week away.
	A week away, a week away.
	The nuke being a week away, a week away, a couple weeks away, for years.
	For a decade.
	For a decade.
	It's even better than NPR.
	But if I were the president, I would inform the threatening country, in this case Iran, that if you do anything to harm this person, we are going to blow your largest cities and the country itself to spithereens.
	We'll be right back.
	President Vladimir Putin has warned the West that Russia could use nuclear weapons if it was struck with conventional missiles.
	Russian leader presented changes to Russia's nuclear doctrine at a meeting of the country's security council.
	Putin said that a nuclear power who was supporting an attack on Russia would now be considered a joint aggressor.
	The change in doctrine comes after Putin's warnings to the U.S. and other NATO allies that allowing Ukraine to use Western long-range weapons to hit Russian territory would mean that Russia and NATO are at war.
	The good news is Putin's war has failed.
	It is core aim.
	He set out to destroy Ukraine, but Ukraine is still free.
	He set out to weaken NATO, but NATO is bigger, stronger, more united than ever before.
	I don't want to see wars.
	I think it's so horrible, so unnecessary, so costly in terms of lives and money in that order.
	I think it's just a failed mentality.
	It's crazy.
	You can sell problems over a telephone.
	Instead, they start dropping bombs.
	I see recently they're dropping bombs all over Yemen.
	You don't have to do that.
	You can talk in such a way where they respect you and they listen to you.
	And you know, the number of lives we're talking about is far greater than the numbers that you hear.
	When they blow up a town, when they blow up these buildings, I mean, these are big, powerful buildings.
	They come tumbling down to the ground and they say nobody was injured.
	A lot of people were killed.
	And the numbers are a lot different than you think.
	You will see that.
	You'll see that happening.
	When those numbers really get announced, you're going to see it much worse.
	The whole world is on fire.
	The best podcast in the universe.
	Adios.
	Mofo.
