This is your award-winning Kibonation Media assassination, episode 186.
This is no agenda.
The Queen survives.
And we're broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number six.
In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're wondering whatever happened to the Hamburglar.
I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Craig Lodden Bogkill in the morning.
Did he go away?
Did they remove the hamburglar from the McDonald's franchise?
I don't know.
I I always like the hamburglar.
Maybe it was too scary.
The hamburglar actually is the guy that uh Google put into Chrome.
Uh that is sneaking through your computer screen when you reach uh a non-SSL encrypted website.
That's that is the actual hamburglar.
You know what I'm talking about.
Yeah.
That's the guy.
So uh news from Fredericksburg.
Everybody's very, very upset here.
Very worried, very concerned.
Well, this is oh, this is always a topper.
Might as well start the show with Frederick's gossip.
Might as well.
Uh not just Fredericksburg, but Nashville, Memphis.
Everybody's very, very, very worried about Dolly Parton.
Oh, yes, uh, did Dolly Parton's sick.
Dolly Parton.
Well, no, let's hear what she has to say.
She is most definitely America Strong.
Moston with her message today.
She knows black athlete from playing for a football team.
Huh?
Well, I don't understand the reference.
But that's they always say most definitely.
So how'd you do in today's game?
Did you do well?
Most definitely.
They always say most definitely.
She is most definitely America.
Show title, most definitely.
I'll write it down.
She is most definitely America Strong.
Dolly Parton with her new message tonight.
She knows many are worried about her health.
So here tonight, Dolly, in her own words.
I wanted to say, I know lately, uh, everybody thinks that I am sicker than I am.
Do I look sick to you?
I'm working hard here.
Anyway, I wanted to put everybody's mind at ease.
Those of you that seem to be real concerned, which I appreciate.
But I want you to know that I'm okay.
I've got it some problems, as I mentioned.
The doctor said we need to take care of this, we need to take care of that.
Nothing major, but I did have to cancel some things so I could be closer to home, closer to Vanderbilt, you know, where I'm kind of having a few treatments here and there.
But I wanted you to know that I'm not dying.
Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine.
I'm begging of you, please don't hesitate.
Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine.
Because once you're dead, then that's a bit too late.
I know I'm trying to be funny now, but I'm dead serious about the vaccine.
And there it is.
I figured we'd we'd start the show off with the back.
I didn't know she did that little Diddy.
Oh, yeah, we we played it on the show.
It was part of the you know, it was uh hamburglers.
When uh Cuomo was offering burger and fries and no, that was uh the de Blasio, yes.
And uh what were the other things?
Movie tickets, all kinds of stuff.
And then Dolly Parton got in on the game.
There you go.
So um I see Well, I guess that's summarizes it.
Pretty much.
Uh I later on I do have uh uh a thing about the vaccine court, but that's not for now.
You want to do your three by three?
Because you got one.
It's always exciting.
The the crowd is a crowd pleaser, a fan favorite.
Everybody always wants to know what's happening.
Now it's time for three by three.
It is the experiment by JCD.
What do we do?
Comparing stories for BBC and the BC, the deliberating three by three.
That's right, three by three.
John's got the big headline news, three by three on the big three networks.
For as long as they're still on the air, we might as well compare.
They're on the air.
They're on the air, so we compare.
Well, let's start with uh ABC.
ABC it is.
On President Trump's orders, a plane carrying 200 National Guard soldiers now heading from Texas to Chicago against the wishes of the city's mayor and the governor of Illinois.
Let me be clear.
Donald Trump is using our service members as political props and as pawns in his illegal effort to militarize our nation's cities.
The president calls it a necessary part of his crime crackdown.
But Governor J.B. Pritzker, who was fighting back in court, calls it an unconstitutional invasion of the state of Illinois.
Trump and the thuggery that his agents have brought has actively made us less safe.
The President tonight says that's just not true.
It's like a war zone.
And then I listened to the governor and the mayor get up and say how they have it under control.
They don't I believe that the Portland people are scared.
You look at what's happened with Portland over the years, it's it's a burning hellhole.
But over the weekend, a judge President Trump appointed himself, says when it comes to Portland, the president's assessment is quote, simply untethered to the facts, blocking the deployment of the guard in the city.
The President has focused on a group of protesters that have camped outside a NALIS facility in Portland.
But Judge Karen Emmergut says those protesters are not significantly violent or disruptive, adding, this is a nation of constitutional law, not martial law.
David Tonight, as these legal battles play out in both Portland and Chicago, President Trump says he's considering invoking the Insurrection Act, using emergency powers that would allow him to go around the courts to deploy the National Guard to both of those cities, David.
Yeah, and we we should probably point out we we got an email from uh one of our producers who was mad.
Like you are laughing at what's happening in Chicago, they're terrorizing brown people.
And uh Yeah, they had some vague clips.
Yeah, clips of a of a guy blocking ice and they threw a smoke or tear grenade and another black guy.
He arrested a guy who got gotten arrested.
Kidnapping.
I mean, the propaganda is strong on this one.
Our own people are falling for it.
It's interesting.
I I ended up having to block that guy.
Oh, uh I didn't.
It wound up okay.
He no, it didn't get a nasty noise.
Well, if you're gonna You're not?
I'm sorry.
No, I am not a racist.
No.
No.
Well, yeah.
It was disappointing to say the least.
Because it his proof was literally none of that.
He's saying every brown person is afraid of being rousted.
And then he said, here's proof.
And it was nothing.
I think it's because you sent some crazy libs of TikTok video back and said, Here's your proof.
That that I don't think that helped the conversation.
Well, I I did throw a little uh kerosene on the fire, that's true, but just a tad, maybe.
But I figured I could just block him anyway, so.
All right.
Bye.
Uh okay, well, let's move on.
That was ABC.
Yes.
I believe we had NBCs lined up.
Protests over immigration raids escalating in Chicago.
Tonight, federal prosecutors charging an alleged gang member with soliciting the murder of an unnamed senior law enforcement official taking part in immigration enforcement there, saying Juan Espinosa Martinez posted in Snapchat, 10K if you take him down.
Authorities tonight also searching for the driver of this black SUV that the Department of Homeland Security says repeatedly rammed into ICE agents in the white truck.
While at a separate event, police appearing to be tear gassed though not injured, all as President Trump faces new legal battles in his efforts to deploy National Guard troops to two more cities.
Donald Trump's deranged depiction of Chicago as a hellhole was just complete BS.
After a federal judge blocked the president from deploying Oregon's National Guard to Portland, where protests against ICE have been escalating.
Tonight, Chicago and the state of Illinois suing to try and prevent President Trump's deployment of troops there.
There was never an insurrection or an invasion on the ground that justified the deployment of the military to our American city.
Though tonight, the president saying he'd consider invoking the Insurrection Act.
Well, I'd do it if it was necessary.
So far, it hasn't been necessary.
We have to make sure that our cities are safe.
As the White House blasts Democratic officials.
That's literally the quote they're using to say he's threatening with the Insurrection Act?
That's the quote?
Yeah.
Wow.
American city.
Though tonight, the president saying he'd consider invoking the Insurrection Act.
Well, I'd do it if it was necessary.
So far, it hasn't been necessary.
He didn't say he's considering it.
He didn't say that.
He said, I'd do it if it was necessary.
He didn't say I'm considering it.
And he says I don't see see it as necessary.
Yeah.
Justified the deplor American city.
Though tonight, the president's saying he'd consider invoking the insurrection act.
Well, I do it if it was necessary so far, it hasn't been necessary.
We have to make sure that our cities are safe.
As the White House last Democratic officials noting there were four homicides and 29 people shot in Chicago this weekend.
But the governor saying ICE is the one escalating tensions.
Pointing to this dramatic DHS video of a recent late night raid saying children were zip tied, which the agency denies.
Which I have still to see video of the year.
Yeah.
And there was also this comment about him being thrown out in the street naked.
Yeah.
Naked.
Yes.
Yeah.
You think somebody would be I mean they're taping everything.
You think that somebody would the camera on it?
They're still taping boomer.
Really?
They're still taking it.
Videoing is just an awkward word.
Which kind of brings recording.
Okay, there you go.
Yeah.
They're recording everything that they can.
And so you think that they would be recording that.
But they're not recording that for some reason.
No.
Let's still record that.
So uh so that's bull crap.
But uh let's but then we move on, of course, to the nothing to lose CBS all over as we get into the Barry Weiss discussion later if we do it.
Yeah.
Uh I don't think things are gonna change much, but CBS has been bought out and taken over by uh David Ellison's operation.
And uh so they either have nothing to lose.
Skydance is sky dance?
Sky dance.
Is this uh can I just say that sounds pretty gay?
Sky Dance.
You know, like tiny dancer.
I always think of Elton.
Oh, there you go.
Um, sorry.
Ready for CBS?
So they so there's a fear that you know they're gonna turn into a right wing operation because of whatever fear they have, even though they don't have you can't find enough right wing reporters have all given up on that gig.
Yeah.
Uh the whole thing is a joke, but they're they're at the point where they're either gonna say, screw it, I'm gonna say what I feel like saying, or they're gonna be uh kind of they're gonna back off.
We don't know yet, but CBS, this is their report.
For the last three weeks, clashes have erupted outside the Broadview Illinois Ice Processing Center.
Protesters say federal agents in riot gear used pepper balls and tear gas to push them back from the facility.
Dozens were detained as chaos spilled into the street.
In this confrontation, a local rabbi who had joined the demonstration was wrestled to the ground by state police.
Over the weekend, President Trump ordered 300 Illinois National Guard troops to Chicago, and up to 400 from the state of Texas.
It's like a war zone.
It's probably worse than almost any city in the in the world.
But Illinois's Democratic governor, J.B. Pritzker is pushing back, joining the state and city in a lawsuit to block that order.
Donald Trump's deranged depiction of Chicago as a hellhole, uh war zone, and the worst and most dangerous city in the world was just complete BS.
Hundreds of National Guard troops now on their way.
Their mission to protect the one city block in Broadview, where the ICE processing center is located.
I'm at a Miyamaguchi outside the ICE facility in Portland, Oregon, where over the weekend, Mayor Keith Wilson recently took us on a tour.
This is really the home of innovation.
That's always what Portland University is known for.
But in seeking to deploy National Guard troops, the president has called the city war ravaged.
And on Sunday, said this.
But they're huge peaceful protests.
Uh mostly peaceful.
I I'm surprised.
I got a very different report from NBC from the nightly news, which which expanded much more on what Pritzker was saying.
Did you hear any of this?
Play it, I'll tell you if I did.
National Guard troops are preparing to deploy to the streets of Chicago as the war of words between President Trump and Illinois Government.
No, this is NBC.
I think it's NBC.
No, that's David Muir.
Oh, then it's ABC.
Governor escalates.
President Trump calling for the jailing now of Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker.
Pritzker saying President Trump has dementia and has something stuck in his head and he can't get it out of his head, calling President Trump's move an unconstitutional invasion.
Alice Perez in Chicago.
This is good stuff.
This is show material.
Oh, wait.
Wait, you get it.
You're gonna get the full Monty.
Here, hold on.
Here it comes.
Tonight, with 500 members of the Texas and Illinois National Guard preparing to fan out across Chicago, charged with securing federal agents and properties.
The president ramping up his attack on the mayor and the governor who called a deployment an unconstitutional invasion.
The president calling for their arrest in an online post.
Chicago mayor should be in jail for failing to protect ICE officers.
Governor Pritzker also.
Everything we're doing is very lawful.
What they're doing is not lawful.
But the governor calling the president a coward.
He's demented.
Literally.
Unhinged.
And this is somebody so insecure that he lashes out pretending that he can come arrest people for no reason at all.
He can't.
In the last 24 hours, Pritzker saying the president has dementia.
Aside from the fact that he's out of his mind and has dementia.
Um it's clear to me that he is targeting Democratic cities.
Telling the Chicago Tribune, this is a man who's suffering dementia.
This is a man who has something stuck in his head.
He can't get it out of his head.
He doesn't read, he doesn't know anything that's up to date.
Man, it sounds like that podcast.
Uh the taco tits uh podcast.
He's got something stuck in his head.
He doesn't read, he doesn't do anything, he doesn't know anything, he's no good, he's got dementia.
Yeah, I don't know what that yeah, it was just a dumb report.
Yeah, but it was funny.
It was definitely funny.
Yeah, I like it.
That's uh ABC's off the rails.
Um may be the worst of the group.
They they've gotten they're worse than CBS.
Well, it should all change.
Let's do Barry Weiss, because I that's you know, we talked about it when it was rumored, and of course now the rumor appears to be true that Sky Dance has purchased uh Barry's news outfit, her substack.
I'm on lunch with a friend of my exwise friend, but he's been I haven't seen her for decade.
He used to be at the Wall Street Journal and entrepreneurial guy.
And he's bitching about this.
And I and I have to hearken back to some of the things I witnessed when I was at uh Ziff Davis with some of these companies.
And the fact that, you know, they they bought a uh which basically a blog.
The Barry Weiss free press.
No, it's worse.
It's a substack.
It's actually on someone else's platform.
It's basically a blog uh well, it's a blog on a blogging.
There you go.
And so uh and I can't fault Substack.
I mean, I I do a substack thing, and they they do a good job of getting their uh stuff shipped.
And uh so they spent 150 million bucks, but I I don't believe it for a minute.
My thinking is the following.
Uh, we need to get you over to CBS, Barry.
Uh so we're gonna do is gonna buy you out and uh we uh how much well okay you can buy me out well, how much do you think it's uh I can get here?
Well, you know, we can give you a couple million.
That that would be reasonable.
Okay, but can we do a deal here and you can make and can we both make a joint announcement that's a hundred and fifty million?
Well, maybe she got some stock.
No, she didn't get any, she didn't get 150 million.
And so uh in stock or anything.
And so although you could do some stock, you know, some kind of a scam is stock thing, you know that.
And and so, okay, or let's make that announcement.
So that this friend of mine says you can't this is a public company, you can't do that.
And then my thinking was look, have you ever seen, for example, just the it's I don't know if people out there get a copy of this.
The Disney for the for example, the Disney org chart with the thousands and thousands and thousands of little elements that are involved.
You don't think you can't hide A couple million dollar trans uh transaction and then put something somewhere else and make it look like you actually gave you know bought it for 150.
It's so it's just creative bookkeeping.
So I don't believe for a second she got 150 million dollars.
Hmm.
Has there been any official announcement that it was 150 million?
Yeah, it was announced over a couple of times.
It was said they both said it was.
Now, whether that you I didn't see it on the, you know, it wasn't announced on a a 4K or anything that I know of.
But it's maybe if it was in a 4K, I'd believe it, but I didn't see that.
But this is Sky Dance, not Disney.
Is is Sky Dance public?
No, I'm just saying, no, I'm just Paramount has the same.
I was just making the point that if you look at the org chart of these jar giant corporations, and Disney being the best example, you can hide you can hide it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Put it under uh talent acquisition.
Or you could put it under any, it doesn't matter.
The whole thing is just that you can't find it.
You can't find these numbers.
So you can say you spent 150 million and you gave her a couple mil, maybe.
And then she's off now doing this the stuff over at uh she'll be editor in chief.
And this is another little diddy that I I noticed.
And the editor, editor in chief, that is a publisher's position.
There is no editor in chief at a uh news organization on TV.
There's editorial directors.
There's a there's she you know, sh there's all kinds of chief of this and she for that, or you can be the Well, hold on, hold on.
This is an important point.
If she's editor-in-chief, she may be editor-in-chief of the blog.
She's still always gonna be that.
She said, But but that's but that's my point.
They specifically said editor in chief of CBS News.
Yeah, okay.
Editor in chief of CBS News, which is a meaningless title in the television news business.
So she actually won't be running the television news division.
How about that?
I don't think she's gonna be running it at all because the she's not even gonna be the reporting system is is off.
But I think she's gonna have some influence, but I don't think it's gonna be meaningful.
And I think I sent you a I I don't have a clip from it, but I sent you because it's so you know who we're talking about, uh Glenn Greenwald, who's a little wordy to say that you mean Mr. Wordy.
Oh, he hates Barry Weiss.
He doesn't like Barry Weiss at all.
He hates it.
And he's uh and he says the in his on his uh rumble uh rumble channel, the the system.
She's just a she's just a pro-Israeli, uh pro-Israel, a package, ex-woke shill shill who doesn't she says she's no different than anybody else that's working in in in media, period.
She's not like a she's not gonna shake things up.
I think I think she's just in charge of the CBS News blog.
I I think that they they the title is correct.
Well, that's a possibility too.
But let's listen to these clips.
All right.
This is uh MPR.
NP M P R Minnesota Public, no, it's NPR.
I put MPR because it's I made the mistake and I just copied it over.
That's no problem.
CBS News is expecting to get a new editor-in-chief.
Barry Weiss, the founder of the free press, which she started as a response to mainstream news outlets like her former employer of the New York Times.
With that move, CBS seems to be taking another step to appeal to the right.
And the parent company is also acquiring Barry Weiss's publication.
NPR's David Fulkenflick is here to discuss all of this.
Good morning, Steve.
Um, for those who don't know, who is Barry Weiss?
So Barry Weiss is uh a writer and editor.
She started out writing for tablet and a publication about Jewish affairs.
She wrote about opinion and books and also edited at the Wall Street Journal for its opinion pages.
And she enjoyed the opinion pages of the New York Times as sort of a right of center contrarian, made a name for herself, wrote increasingly under her own name, and then left with a huge blast in July 2020.
It's sort of the peak of the social justice movement.
She accused her colleagues in a letter she posted publicly that she sent to the publisher of the New York Times, A. G. Salzberger.
She accused her colleagues of bullying her and creating essentially an illiberal atmosphere, unwilling to tolerate debate and dissent.
And what she said was the smothering culture there, and created the free press kind of in opposition To that as a home for people right of center who saw the press, the media writ large as being reflexively somewhat liberal.
Somewhat.
Just a tad.
Just a little bit liberal.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
You know, the funny thing is when I don't have this clip either.
I I got enough.
If you notice, I have a lot of people.
Yeah, you got 29 clips.
You're you're you're overclipped.
So the uh she she had a little Diddy I was on Twitter.
She went on and on about how it was happening.
And again, wordy.
She's just like Greenwald you can't, you know, yak yak yak.
She says, and so we have our and she called her sti the group of people that do writing for the free press that blog.
She calls them a band of misfits.
She used the term misfits to describe her staff.
I I I thought that was like personally, if I was work writing for her and I was, you know, uh in other words, I can't get work, I have to work for you.
I mean, I thought it was an insult, a high insult that she just casually you know blathered off.
Uh very I was offended, and I didn't even work there.
Hey, she's got 150 million dollars on paper.
Literally paper.
So it's called F U money, baby.
F U money.
You do whatever you want.
Yeah, I get it.
I'd be like that too.
Yeah, well, there you have it.
Just go onward.
And she gained a lot from that departure in the end, built up a brand new organization, uh, built up a big subscriber base, attracted a lot of deep pocketed investors, and now moves to a mainstream media organization.
But what exactly will she do there?
Well, it's a question I I'm told by folks inside the network that it's kind of fluid, but she's editor-in-chief.
She certainly will be able to have almost whatever remit she wants.
People aren't expecting her to take command of logistics, deploying people to cover a war or hurricane or something.
She doesn't have experience in that kind of uh complicated calibration and moves, but I think she's going to be working with Tom Sabrowski, who's staying on as the president of CBS News to kind of set the tone to figure out the scope of coverage, the nature of coverage, the tenor of coverage.
You know, she can have a finger in every pie.
She's still going to be running the free press, which is this right of center publication that'll still have its brand separate from CBS News.
But you know, that's the question that I'm hearing from folks inside.
They're like, is this going to be that she's bringing a contrarian voice?
Or is she somehow, you know, as as part of the discussion of how coverage is set, or is she somehow going to be more of an ideological enforcer at a time where there has been reaction to the press and criticism of it from the White House and other quarters.
and tremendous pressure on CBS specifically.
Yeah, there's a lot of pressure.
She has 1.7 million subscribers.
I'm not sure how many of those are paying subscribers.
About every 10 posts is a subscriber post only.
So she could conceivably be doing several hundred thousand dollars a month, you know, 10x that.
No.
But I I see where they can silicon value-wise calculate some value.
No.
Yeah.
No.
Just no.
No, it's not true.
You heard it here first.
It's not true.
It will come out.
No, it would never come out.
These things never come out.
There's all private deals or they're hidden, they're swept under the rug.
Who knows?
All right.
Uh, but it's beside the point, it's just a you know, splash.
It's to make it to make a lot of noise.
Oh, look at what you can do.
I think I should start one too.
Um You did.
The OASIS.
You're waiting.
You're waiting for the call from Sky millions.
Sky Dance, I'm waiting for your call.
So here we go with the end of this.
This does raise an interesting question because you can have opinions about the news, but then you have an institution with many hundreds of employees around the world, and the question of how they deploy themselves, how they cover it, how you work the mechanics of that, that can matter as much as your outside opinion of what's going on.
That's right.
I think that the real question is going to be how Weiss sees herself.
Is she seeing herself as a change agent or a disruption agent in the model of Elon Musk in the early uh doge weeks of the Trump administration?
Or is she seeing herself as an important and defining voice for CBS, but an institution worth preserving with you know major tent polls like 60 minutes that have been so defining for American broadcast journalism for so many decades.
And so I think Inside CBS, there is a willingness to entertain a different way of thinking about the news and also an apprehension about are they ultimately going to be adhering to the same set of values, even if it's interpreted in slightly different ways.
Both the openness and the apprehension.
Very interesting.
David.
That's intermedia course bothered David Floyd.
18 years, and we've never been called change agents.
I'm kind of disappointed.
So one of the things that people should note is that the real key in media and changing the way the propaganda is set up and pushed out is simple.
It's just story selection.
Sure.
You have two pairs, and you see it all the time.
That's why Twitter and all these guys will bring up this and and Fox will do it.
They'll bring up stories that the mainstream won't talk about.
They the the idea of this uh character Jay Jones who threatened or didn't threaten, but he said he should put two bullets in his opponent's head and what and this kid should watch or this kid should die in his mother's arms, and just a sick guy.
Uh it was there's a they did a graphic and it was covered for uh 63 seconds on NBC.
CBS did not play it at all, and neither did ABC, ABC for sure.
Uh NBC had 63 seconds uh of coverage of this, which Fox is just hounding because it is affecting the campaign.
And you're gonna see the same thing with this Katie Porter thing, which is blowed up.
Uh, but as long as you blow it up on social media.
Yeah.
Yeah, even I saw that.
And this is some numb nut who's running for governor.
Numbnut who is winning the race for governor.
Oh, she's winning the race for governor.
Oh, that's even worse.
She's ahead by every uh an every she's ahead by 17 points over all the competition.
This woman.
This is she was anointed.
She was the anointed one by the Democrat Party in California.
Wow.
She's she's a she's a pig, basically.
You can still get out.
There's time.
You can still do it.
So um why?
It's too much.
It's a it's a hoot.
Yeah.
Speaking of uh of M5M, um, the numbers now are in.
Of course, you won't see it as a headline.
Uh after his uh glorious comeback, Jimmy Kimmel sheds 85% of his key viewers.
Yeah, I know they dropped right back, probably a little bit below what it was before.
Yeah, yeah.
So they're gonna have to come up with some other gambit to get rid of them or they're just gonna have to write it off.
I mean, the they have to do something with that.
That they can never go for that again.
No, but they could they could have done it by being honest and saying, look, our rate the ratings are c this is called why don't they just come out and be honest?
Well, actually the ratings are crap that's costing us a fortune to do this show.
We're killing it.
You know, they could do it now.
Now that I think about it, they could say, you know, Oh, you're right.
Jimmy had the resurgence.
Yeah, he couldn't hold on to him.
That really shows that uh it's just it's not gonna work.
We we tried everything for you, Jimmy.
We even brought you back, gave you the biggest comeback ratings of the century, and you just couldn't do it, brother.
I'm sorry.
You gotta go.
Yeah.
Now's the time to do it.
You can't just d dilly dolly.
And he said, on behalf of Sky Dance, we just can't have oh no, it's not in Sky Dance.
Uh crap.
Maybe it's Disney.
On behalf of Sky Dancer, a Tinkerbell.
Tinkerbell says, we can't have you.
I'm sorry.
This would be the time.
So the um the big big, big big news.
This is oh, it flooded all of the timelines.
Everybody's talking about it.
It was uh the dead man switch.
Have you heard about the dead man switch?
I'm about to.
Well, see, now I don't know if now I'm afraid to do it, because you know, you're already in a I think you're in a bad mood.
Are you in a bad mood?
Are you trying to make me put me in a bad mood by saying that?
Oh you you're leading into this in a very awkward way.
Because uh of how you respond.
You've twice.
I'm about to, I'm about to build it up as everybody's talking about it.
I don't know what you're talking about right away.
So before we do that, I gotta pull the rug out from under your thesis.
I got a note from Sydney.
And she says Sydney, Sydney, Sydney, girl, Sydney.
She says, as a sincere and genuine fan of the show, and sister in Christ, which of course gets my attention.
I want to bring your attention to the idea that you may be being a bit overly mean and condescending towards John on the show.
Yes.
It's been let me finish the note.
It's been an ongoing thing, but I feel like it has gotten worse and worse, where you almost show a complete lack of respect towards him.
And he is always and he is always so graceful and doesn't feed into your and doesn't feed into your passive aggressive shade.
I'm sure you're not doing it with malice in your heart, but come on, Adam, let's try to be nice.
I feel bad sometimes.
It just feels like you've hurt his feelings.
We will all age and get older one day.
Well, that part should have left out.
Now I've got to read the whole thing.
And we should all hope that we have the mental aptitude that John does.
I know I'd be blessed too.
So it's not nice to make fun of that.
You act like his clips don't matter, or what he has to say doesn't matter.
That's true.
Just have your own solo show.
Just have your wait, I gotta read it in the voice.
Just have your own solo show then.
Oh, but you won't do that, right?
Why?
Because John matters.
Well, I've got that too.
She's a she must be a pro.
She's like a media analyst or something.
I I sincerely apologize.
I of course, there's no no agenda without the two of us.
That would never work.
I don't want to do my own solo show.
Condescension works for me.
See, that's my point.
He likes it.
No, this is the dead man switch that Candace Owens has thrown the dead man switch.
Never heard of this.
I went ahead this week and sent around a life insurance policy of a package, rather, to people that I trust, a package filled with text messages, emails, private communications, videos, and private legal documents.
So if anything happens to me, you guys will know exactly who it is that hasn't making my life a living hell over the past couple of years.
People that are trying to bankrupt me, trying to bankrupt me and my family, they're threatening us to sue us.
Everything that Kanye said was so real.
Okay.
And now at that point where you look back and you go, man, Kanye was right.
He was really saying something about what it takes to leave, you know, to fight for custody of your own soul.
Just leave me alone.
Let me say what I believe, and you say what you believe.
Fight fair.
Why do you always have to make this threat to bankrupt people?
And I want you to know that those people, if anything happens to me, they have my explicit permission to release it all, detonate it all.
Expose all of these people in politics and in the movement who behave like this behind the scenes.
It's necessary.
And I highly recommend every single person that is out there and has a platform and is going through things and scared.
Do the same.
Send everything around to about eight people that you trust.
And I mean, I I've ranged it.
I sent it to journalists, text messages, and screenshots of people ranging from Max Blumenthal to Andrew Tate.
They won't know where it's coming from.
Okay.
So first of all, this is a recommendation we need to take seriously.
I think we should have our own dead man switch.
Hold on a second.
Let's just talk about her dead man switch first.
So she is making an implication.
I this is news to me, because I don't you that's her you're her she's your beat.
Yes, my beat.
I haven't listened to a Candace Owen show for probably two years.
I don't listen either, but I could not avoid this clip.
It just kept being getting sent to me.
So I presume our people, our people are into this.
I don't get it.
So she's uh bitching about the Jews.
Well wait, you're you're you're you're jumping the gun.
This there's another part to this.
Well, let me finish what I think.
Yeah.
She's bitching about the Jews, and she sent around a bunch of uh to because she said they're out to bankrupt, they're out to this, they're out to that.
And all she's sending around is a bunch of uh uh payment due notices because she's not paying her her mortgage.
That's what it seems like to me.
Uh she's blaming the Jews.
I think she's paying her mortgage.
We'll get to that.
Here's the second part.
Three people told me off record.
Two people who have this in a written communication from Charlie.
Uh One, who is a turning point USA donor, and I would say very much one of the white knights in this.
Okay, well, we'll we'll stick a pin in that because we will hear from one of the white knights in a moment because the white knight emerged after the dead man switch was thrown.
The very day before Charlie Kirk died, he expressed that he thought he was going to be killed.
He told these people, I think they're going to kill me.
Okay.
He had not expressed that to me.
So I am telling you this based off the testimony of three people.
Testimony.
And I am saying this because I hope that these people who I think are good will be inspired to come forward with that.
Again, those conversations I had were off record.
I honor that.
If I say it's off record, it stays off record.
But I'm hoping that watching what I am doing and feeling the energy that is rising across the world for people who want to know what the heck happened on 9-10, that, you know, they will be brave and and they will say, Yeah, Charlie did the day before he died, think that he was going to be killed, and maybe tell us who is they.
Well, for once and for all, who is they?
Who is the day that he thought was were going to kill him?
Now to answer, and others knew that Charlie was done with Israel bullying him, and I am now going to present you proof of what I am saying.
This is an actual group chat, which happened two days before Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
There were nine people in total on this chat, including Charlie.
Okay, so she's talking about they, and it's Israel.
So it's a little confused.
It was confusing to me.
Is this the Jews?
Is it Israel?
I'm not sure who it is, but they are coming after Candace and her family.
And by the way, I don't think we need to be too worried about Candace and her family.
You know who her husband is, right?
Oh, yeah.
She's some rich guy.
Well, George Farmer, um, who was at Turning Point UK.
Uh, he was the CEO of Parlor, I'm just reminding you.
Um, and his family is really what's most interesting.
His dad, Michael Farmer.
He is uh Baron Farmer, I should uh I should note.
Um, and so he is a lifetime peer.
Uh so he's uh he's connected to uh the the United Kingdom.
But we'll continue now with uh Candace's uh her revelation of uh the text thread.
So Charlie.
Oh, wait a second.
So you're actually tying this into your nose.
Oh, wait, it's coming.
It's coming.
I knew it.
It's coming.
So Charlie writes in the screw chat just lost another huge Jewish donor, uh, two million a year because we won't cancel Tucker.
I'm thinking of inviting Candace.
Somebody writes, uh Charlie writes, Jewish donors play into all of the stereotypes.
I cannot and will not be bullied like this, leaving me no choice but to leave the pro-Israel cause.
So what are we to make of that?
Okay, now that I'm showing you this and showing to you that the conversations were real, I want you to reflect.
And it took me a lot of patience to allow the lies that were being woven and the misrepresentations, and eulogizing Charlie as something and someone that never once flinched, never once for a single second, doubted the Israeli cause.
So now here's Charlie saying, and you know, he he did a whole round table of gen uh Gen Zers Gensers, and uh I think he was in general in agreement with them about Israel, but not about Jews, but about Israel.
So out emerges after uh Candace posts her dead man switch, which I think she just told us what's in it.
I'm not sure what else could be in there that she sent to uh the what's the guy's name, Andrew.
What's his name?
I don't know.
Andrew Tate.
He said she said it's that's yeah, that guy's on my list of dead man switch uh operators, Andrew Tate.
So out of the woodwork emerges John Mappin.
And John Mappins post is uh by the way, I have a blue check mark.
I don't know how you get to post 500 words on X. I I just can't seem to get it done.
I think you had to pay.
Oh, yet he has to be a paying blue blue check.
And he's like uh uh if Candace Owens had been assassinated, Charlie would have torn apart every lie and devoted every working day and night to and covered the full truth.
Candace is working hard to get to the truth of who killed Charlie Kirk and why they did it.
Charlie's executions, assassination with potentially far-reaching political consequences for America and the world.
What we have seen so far, beggars belief.
I'm like, who says beggars belief?
Oh, it's this guy, John Mappin.
International, this is from his own website.
International real estate hospitality construction and media entrepreneur.
He is the seventh generation of the Mappin family to invest in innovative ways to deploy capital.
While his father, David Mappin, invested to develop the technologies that allowed the National Treasure of North Sea oil to benefit the people of the United Kingdom.
John Mappin has taken the family into new areas of investment and innovation innovativation.
He has built a reputation as a hardworking progressive and inspirational businessman with expansive philanthropic interests, particularly the field of education in free market economies, environmental restoration, and conservation of the natural world.
This is what got me.
John Mappen and his wife Irina Kudr Kudrenach Mappen are the co-founders and originators of the global reforestation initiative that became the conceptual backbone and inception point of the current form of the Dutch Green Business, a publicly quoted main market listing on the Amsterdam Exchange Euro Next.
Well, with that, I'm like, okay.
Here we go.
It's fine.
Beware the North Sea Nexus.
Here we are, because the North Sea Nexus has emerged to blame it on the Jews.
This is this it could not get any better.
Yeah, that's it.
Piecing it together that way is good.
That was good.
Because the fact is, if anybody was going to kill Candace Owens, it would probably be the G uh uh the D G S E, uh, which is the French CIA.
Well, so this'll be the final time I'm doing this because I'm tired of it, but I just brought back a flu a few clips.
The last time I'm gonna explain how this works, and then I'll be done with it, and then we'll have because the last time we do won't?
Well, this is a blatant lie.
I'm not so sure because I'm bringing back clips from over a year ago, and we've learned that people say, Well, you never talk about the moon landing.
Well, we've only talked about it 8,000 times on the show.
And you can go to Bingit.io and you can find everything we've always talked about.
And but it's our own fault because we've been doing this too long.
You know, and then we get with, I mean, we what's not that we've been doing it too long as a it is a disservice to the public.
What we've done is we've taken for granted that everyone who's listening to the show as we speak right now knows what we talked about 10 years ago.
Yes.
That's the problem.
So from time to time, and I think annually would be okay.
I need to bring back a couple of things.
But first, we have to talk about what an idiot Netanyahu is.
He is truly truly an idiot.
And this is this is the clip where he called Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson and everybody else the woke Reich.
Okay.
He said uh we talked about the woke right.
He said I call it the woke reich.
That's a brilliant.
So he calls them the woke reich, which is of course really offensive to anybody.
I like it though.
It's it's yeah, it would be a great show title, but still, it's like I call them the woke reich.
So do you what do you think Tucker's gonna say to that?
Like, Of course.
Now he was saying this, and and then this is all being I didn't have to do any work for this.
Just as popped up on my time on everybody saying this is what our people are looking at and talking about.
So that's why I'm bringing it up.
This was in front of a bunch of what the text says Christian Zionists who are on a work retreat to Israel under the auspices of Paula White, who is the White House faith office uh leader.
And so this is, you know, so obviously when you're doing this stuff, it's a very bad take.
The woke right, because these people, you know, they're not any different from the woke left.
I mean, they're they're insane, they're losing.
But they're actually meeting on some of the things.
And what we have to do is we have to secure that part of our the base of our support in the United States that is being challenged systematically.
A lot of this is done with money.
Money of NGOs, that money of governments, bastard.
Okay.
We have to fight back.
How do we fight back?
Our influencers.
I think you should also talk to them if you have a chance.
To that community, they're very important.
And secondly, we're gonna have to uh use the tools of battle.
Yeah, so our influencers, so already you're talking propagandistic terms, and nobody's deaf out here.
We hear what you're saying, and so this is the classic TikTok.
We have to fight with the weapons that uh apply to the battlefields within which we're engaged, and the most important ones are the social media, and the most important purchase that is going on right now is classical.
All right, then they went on, like, we got to talk to Elon, he's a friend.
So this all comes apart as a part of what Netanyahu calls the eighth front.
So one of the things we have fought now, Seven Front War, we have an eighth front, and that is the front and the battle for truth.
So he's warring now on social media, which is in in a way in in our own backyard, and the ADL, which I believe the FBI is now broken with, we're not gonna take any more information from you, uh, introduced this uh in Congress as well.
To recognize that there is an eighth front in this war.
It might not be a terrestrial border that you can find on a map, but this domain is as volatile, is as violent, and is as vital to our future.
The information sphere, the infosphere is the eighth front in this war.
And seizing the high ground in the fight for global public opinion is a battle that's as important to the long-term war as what you've done in Lebanon and Syria.
All right, so now of course we have to take into account that APAC absolutely is an American Israeli public affairs committee, and they, as Massey said, everybody everyone has at least one APAC lobbyist.
Now, of course, I will explain once again where that money comes from, but when you're talking like this and you're talking to influencers and everybody's seeing what you're saying, and you actually do put your foreign money into something in the United States, it shows up on a pharaoh report, foreign agent report um by the company that took the Israeli money to do the following, and all you need is for Ian Carroll to get a hold of it.
Targeted geofencing, right there.
Description.
Largest geofencing and targeted Christian digital campaign ever.
Geofense, the actual boundaries of every major church in California, Arizona, Nevada, and Colorado, and all Christian colleges during worship times, track attendees and continue to target with ads.
So what that means is that Israel, the state of Israel, on this pharaoh registration is disclosing that a foreign state is paying for an influence campaign that will actively locate your cell phone if you go to church in any of California, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado, they will target and track your phone at church.
And then when you leave church, they will continue to track you and send you customized Israel ads using Israeli money to back that campaign.
That's why we have FARA.
It's so that they have to disclose shit like this.
Well, yeah.
And so and so they did.
And the funny thing about this is when you present it this way, you kind of forget that the Mars Corporation is doing this, you know, for dog food.
This is how it's done.
This is to this is why phones are so beautiful, because the geofencing advertising, that's exactly what's happening.
Yeah, and that's why I keep my phone in a drawer.
I don't understand why everybody doesn't adopt my policy.
And you're not wrong.
But this only fuels the conspiracy.
And then Netanyahu does the dumbest thing he could do because he feels it.
He feels that this is turning into Jew hate instead of just plain old Israel hate.
Which, by the way, I'm fine with.
You can hate Israel, I don't care.
You can hate APAC, I don't care.
I don't like APAC either, especially not because I think that they're it they're coming from a whole different perspective from the military-industrial complex.
We'll we'll reiterate that in a moment.
So Netanyahu feels this.
Oh, got to do some damage control.
What is the dumbest thing you can do?
Go on Ben Shapiro show and do it.
This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.
I don't know if Hill and Nolton advised him on this, but here's two pieces.
No, I guess not.
Oh, I know what I do, just call up Ben.
Explain to Americans why should it matter whether America maintains a strong alliance with Israel in in defense terms and tech terms.
Well, let me first start with uh America first.
That's a national.
Going back to that thesis.
This is Ben.
Ben's the guy.
Oh, Ben's the guy who's made the call.
Good point.
Hey, BB, we'll we'll fix it.
We'll make it right.
I think you're right.
This is Ben's call.
And but again, you should say, no, this is not, this is not the right form.
No, no, you do you what no, you don't even do that.
You call the Hill and Nolton guy and say, should I be doing what should I be doing here?
Yes.
Because I gotta beg out in some sort of way.
Explain to Americans why should it matter whether America maintains a strong alliance with Israel in in defense terms and tech terms?
Well, let me first start with uh America first.
That's a natural position.
It would be unnatural to have a different position.
But America first doesn't mean America alone, because all countries need allies.
And if you're without allies who maybe who may develop the technologies that are needed for your defense, or the technologies that are needed for your offense or the intelligence to save your lives, why forfeit yourself of these allies?
The problem that you've had over the years, the United States, is that you didn't have these allies pulling their weight.
And Israel is an ally, it's a fighting ally that pulls its weight.
Not only that, not only do we fight, we don't ask for Americans to bring boots on the ground, we've done the job of defending ourselves pretty well, I'd say, over the last 70 uh seven years.
But it's not only that, we've also defeated enemies who are your enemies who are trying to develop intercontinental ballistic missiles armed with nuclear warheads to attack your cities.
That's what Iran was doing.
We just knocked out Iran.
Also, with the, as I said, with President Trump's very judicious and pointed assistance.
Now bear all this in mind.
He said very specifically, and that's why I brought this clip in.
We don't have any American boots on the ground when we're doing this.
I know everyone's really upset.
You can't afford your rent, and we're sending 10 billion a year to Israel and military assistance.
I know.
The second clip is was actually the meat and potatoes of the visit.
But again, if you did this on Megan Kelly's show, on Tucker Carlson show, anywhere but on Ben Shapiro's show, it would have had some traction.
Wonder if you want to talk a little about the relationship that you personally have with with President Trump, which is obviously in public quite warm.
Well, it's it's in private, but quite warm.
Doesn't mean that we agree on everything or at any one time we agree on every point.
That's what we have a conversation for.
You have that in your family?
A lot.
Yeah you want to see who wins out?
Your wife.
My wife always.
Well, in this case, it's not a husband and wife situation.
It's a question of partners.
We're the junior partner.
Oh.
We have no uh nobody should mistake that because we're the junior partner.
This is this is the key.
We're the junior partner.
We're not in control here, we're the junior partner.
It's a question of partners.
We're the junior partner.
And then We have no uh nobody should mistake that because right now the liberty of the world, the security of the world is dependent on the strength of the United States.
And I think what President Trump has done in a very short time is bring America back to the front seat, to the driver's seat in the world affairs.
And that's very, very important.
Uh because I think I think we all depend on America's strength and its uh resolve.
And I think President Trump has made America greater than we believe that.
Okay.
So that has always been our point.
Israel is the junior partner.
And to take you back, and I've shortened these and only done a couple of them.
Michael Hudson was there when this happened.
And I think President Trump is in if you want to talk about a deep state, this is it.
The deep state is what was set up in the 70s, primarily through the State Department and the Department of Defense, military industrial complex, was to use Israel for everything we wanted to do in the Middle O Middle East, which always comes back to oil, always.
And the true dismantling of that is what Marco Rubio started to do under the auspices of Doge is get all of these people out who were brought in specifically because of their intense Zionist uh feelings about Israel.
So, yeah, that that is that is and certainly was a real thing, but that is what is now being cleaned up.
So it started back in the 70s.
Michael Hudson was there when it happened.
Everything that's happened today was planned out just 50 years ago, back in 1974, 1973 and four.
Uh I sat in on meetings uh with the Arad, who became Netanyahu, whose uh uh chief uh military advisor after heading uh Mossad.
Uh and the whole strategy was uh worked out uh essentially by the Defense Department, by uh neoliberals, and almost uh in a series of stages uh that that I'll explain.
Scoop Jackson is the main name to remember.
Scoop Jackson was the ultra-right wing neocon who sponsored them all.
He uh was the head of the Democratic National Committee in 1960, uh, and then worked uh with military uh advisors.
I was with uh Hermann Kahn, uh the model for Dr. Strangelove at the Hudson Institute during these years, and uh I sat in on uh uh meetings and I'll describe them.
But I want to describe how the whole strategy that led to the United States today not wanting peace, wanting to take over the whole nearest, took shape gradually.
And to remind everybody, the reason why we did it this way is because after the Vietnam War, before 9-11, but after the Vietnam War, it was impossible to get a draft going.
No one wanted to go fight any foreign wars very similar to they, and why would you?
Because these are all banker wars and oil wars, etc.
Uh, the starting point for all the U.S. strategy here was that democracies no longer can field uh a domestic army with a military draft.
Uh America is not in a position able to uh really field enough of an army to invade a country, and without invading a country, you can't really take it over.
You can bomb it, but that just is going to incite resistance.
So this was recognized 50 years ago.
Uh and it seemed at that time that uh the U.S. backed wars were going to have to be scaled down.
But that hasn't happened.
And the reason is the United States had a fallback position.
It was going to rely on foreign uh troops to do the fighting as proxies uh instead of itself.
That was a solution to get a force.
Well, the first example uh was to create the Wahhabi, uh jihad fighters uh in Afghanistan as Al-Qaeda.
Uh and uh Jimmy Carter mobilized them uh against uh the the secular Afghan interests and uh the Carter doctrine, the nice democrat Jimmy Carter.
Carter justified this by saying, well, yes, they're Muslims, but after all, we all believe in God.
So the answer to uh the secular state of Afghan was Wahhabi uh f fanaticism and jihads and the United States uh realized that uh in order to have an army that's willing to fight to the last member of its country, the last Afghan, the last Israeli, the last Ukrainian.
Uh you really need uh a country whose spirit is one of hatred uh towards uh the other.
Uh a spirit very different from uh the American and uh uh uh European spirit.
Well, Brzezinski was uh the grand planner uh who did all that.
So I hope people are starting to get the picture when you hear Afghanistan, you hear Israel, you hear Ukraine.
This has always been the status quo of our State Department is we're going after them, but we're gonna do it with people who who hate the our enemy, which whether it's Russia or whether it's Muslims or whether it's oil countries.
That has always been the system, and this is why Israel was and still is important to us.
When all of this strategy was being put together, Herman Khan's great achievement was to convince the U.S. Empire builders that the key to achieving their uh control of the Middle East was to rely on Israel as its foreign legion.
And that arm's length arrangement enabled the United States to play the role, as I said, uh, of uh the good cop, designating Israel to play uh its role.
And uh Israel is organized and supplied El Nusra Al-Qaeda while the United States uh pretends to denounce them, and it's all part of a plan that's been backed by the uh uh the military, the State Department, and the national security operation.
And that's why the State Department has turned over management of U.S. diplomacy to Zionists, seemingly uh distinguishing Israeli behavior from U.S. empire building.
Uh but in a nutshell, the Israelis have joined uh uh Al Qaeda and uh ISIS's uh uh troops uh is America's foreign legion.
And so in reality, the Jews were abused by the military-industrial complex under the guise of APAC to get the money flowing and to always have more war and always rile everybody up about it because the whole system was indeed driven by what we would call Zionists, but it's all military money.
The U.S. uh policy, as I said, was based on the U.S. actually taking over uh all of these countries, you again using Israel as that, by the way, is the West Clark 7, all these countries.
Yeah, uh is the battering ramp, what the army called uh America's landed aircraft carrier there.
Well, the uh all this began to take place in uh the 1960s uh with Henry Jackson.
Initially, Israel didn't really play a role in the U.S. plan.
Uh Jackson simply hated communism, he hated the uh the Russians, uh, and he had got a lot of support within the Democratic Party.
Uh, he was a senator from Washington State, uh, and that was the center of uh uh military industrial complex.
Uh he was called nicknamed the Senator from Boeing.
Uh Jackson was fighting all the arms control.
So we've got to have war.
And he proceeded to stuff the State Department and other U.S. agencies with uh uh neocons who planned from the beginning for a permanent worldwide war.
And this takeover of government policy was led by uh Jackson's former Senate aides.
These senate aids were Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Pearl, Douglas Fife, uh, and others who uh were uh uh catapulted into the commanding heights of the State Department and more recently the National Security Council.
The Jackson Bannock amendment to the uh U.S. Trade Act of 1974 became the model for subsequent sanctions against the Soviet Union, claiming that it was the claim was it it uh limited Jewish immigration and other human rights.
So right then the uh the State Department realized here here is a group of people who we can use as the theoreticians and the executors of the U.S. policy that we want.
They both want to take over all of the Arab countries.
I don't think there were any uh non-Jewish Americans that had that uh visceral hatred of Islam that uh the Zionists had, or also the visceral hatred of Russia, specifically for its uh anti-semitism of uh uh past centuries, most of which was in uh Ukraine, and by the way.
Exactly.
And now you understand Victoria Newland, why she was involved in Ukraine, always getting other people to fight for us.
And I I believe, truly believe, President Trump doesn't want that, and he's dismantling that, but it's a big system to dismantle, and part of it has been giving the military more money, giving them other things to focus on golden dome, big beautiful ships.
Hey, we're gonna get you money, we don't necessarily have to be killing people all the time.
And the media has been so complicit in this that you've gotta wonder if you are listening to this podcast and you're basically in line with crazy uh Palestinian protesters from the river to the sea.
Doesn't that tell you something?
That doesn't make a lot of sense, other than this has been a system that has been going on for as long as I've been on planet Earth.
It's a long time.
So how was the media complicit?
This is the former AP reporter talking about how all of our reports coming out of Gaza were completely corrupted.
AP, as far as I know, I was the first staffer to erase information from a story because we were threatened by Hamas, which happened at the very end of 2008.
We had a great reporter in Gaza, a Palestinian, who had always been um really an excellent reporter.
We had a detail in a story.
The detail was a crucial one.
It was that Hamas fighters were dressed as civilians and were being counted as civilians in the death toll.
An important thing to know.
Um that went out in an AP story.
The reporter called me a few hours later.
It was clear that someone had spoken to him, and he told me I was on the desk in Jerusalem, so I was kind of writing the story from the main bureau in Jerusalem, and he said, Mati, you have to take that detail out of the story.
And it was clear that someone had threatened him.
I took the detail out of the story.
I suggested to our editors that we note in an editor's note that we were now complying with Hamas censorship.
I was overruled, and from that point in time, the AP, like all of its sister organizations, collaborates with Hamas censorship in Gaza.
What does that mean?
You'll see a lot of dead civilians and you won't see dead militants, you won't have a clear idea of what Hamas military strategy is, and and this is the kicker, the center of the coverage will be a number, a casualty number that is provided to the press by something called the Gaza Health Ministry,
which is Hamas, and we've been doing that since 2008, and it's a way of basically settling the story before you get into any other information because when you put, you know, when you say 50,000 50 Palestinians were killed and one Israeli on a given day, you know, it it doesn't matter what else you say.
That's always been your complaint, John.
The Hamas uh medical information bureau.
Fake numbers.
Which was statisticians have come out and determined that these numbers are fake just based on theory.
Well, it gets it gets even worse because now you only really have three kinds of reports coming out of this region.
The numbers kind of tell their own story, and then it's a way of kind of settling the story with something that sounds like a concrete statistic.
And the statistic is being you know given to us by one of the combatant sides, but because the reporters sympathize with that side, they're happy to they're happy to play along.
So since 2008, certainly since 2014, when we had another serious war in Gaza, the press has not been covering in Gaza.
The press has been essentially an amplifier for one of the most poisonous ideologies on earth.
Hamas has figured out how to make the press amplify its messaging rather than covering Hamas.
There are no Western reporters in Gaza.
All of the reporters in Gaza are Palestinians, and those people fall into three categories.
Some of them identify with Hamas, some of them are intimidated by Hamas and won't cross Hamas, which makes a lot of sense.
I wouldn't want to cross Hamas either.
And the third category is people who actually belong to Hamas.
That's where the information from Gaza is coming from.
And if you're credulous, then of course you're gonna get a story that makes Israel look pretty bad.
Exactly.
So I'm gonna land with the plane with this.
The problem I have with this is that people are confusing Zionists with Jewish people.
And Candace Owens throwing gasoline on the fire by saying those people they're bankrupting me.
It's the Jews.
As you identified, she's saying it's the Jews.
And as I was thinking about this, I'm like, I have seen this movie before.
I have seen this movie before.
The movie is actually called Bonhoeffer.
And a guy named Eric Mataxis, he's um I think he's still a pastor, but he wrote a book called A Letter to the American Church uh about a year ago.
And uh it's about Dietrich Bonhoeff, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a um a pastor in Germany during World War II, and the church in Germany, when the trains are going by with the Jews being carted off, and just to cover up the screens, the screams of the people in the cattle cars, the church said, just turn up the music, just sing a little louder so we don't have to hear it.
Here's a quick Eric Mataxis, and it it really accentuates the point.
You know, the lie that he was dealing with in his day, it's the same lie we're dealing with in in in our day, which was let me what what led me to write my book Letter to the American Church.
What would Bonhoeffer say today?
It's the same excuses being given by the church.
We don't do politics.
What do you mean you don't do politics?
Slavery is is is uh an issue, and you say, Well, we don't we don't take a position that's political.
We just do church.
How can you do church and not take an issue on sl enslaving human beings?
That's politics.
My hero William Wilberforce, I wrote a biography of William Wolverforce.
He was a politician who, because of his Christian faith said, I must stand against the slave trade.
This is a satanic abomination treating human beings like this.
I'm going to use politics uh and culture and whatever I can do to change the laws.
That's our duty as Christians.
It's our duty as Americans.
And so Bonhoeffer was trying to get the church to see it in his day, and again, many were like, we don't want any trouble, we're just gonna do church.
We'll let the evil take over.
We don't care, it's not affecting us, it's affecting the Jews.
God judges that.
If you it's affecting the Jews, we don't care.
And so that's the only issue I have with it.
I'm not doing an APAC commercial like people say, oi, how much an APAC pay you guys to say that.
I I do not want war.
I think President Trump has the right idea.
Let's clean everything up, let's stop the fighting in Ukraine, in Gaza.
Fine, rebuild it.
All the Arab nations seem to be on board.
He seems to really be trying to meet make peace, and the kicker to it all is this was actually Charlie Kirk's vision.
Our vision, and it might be foolishly optimistic, but I've been called that before, and now you can kind of see it.
We want a thousand Dietrich Bonhoeffers.
We're not gonna say like we're gonna create them.
I want to find them and encourage them.
That's it.
Find and encourage.
Find and encourage.
That's it.
Because I'm I'm not gonna like train people or pass like it.
I just want to find and encourage you.
Yeah.
Go with a hundred go with a thousand Martin Luther's.
It's got a little more.
That's fair.
I like the Bonhoeffer example because of the circumstances, the tyranny.
Yes, yeah, yes.
And but you know, I also like the Bonhoeffer because I never want to make anyone feel as if I'm being anything but honest.
It's gonna cost us something.
God forbid our life like that, but eventually we're all gonna have to go to heaven.
And so Bonhoeff's the example of hey, I'm willing to sacrifice everything I have for God's purpose on earth.
But I hear you, it's not exactly the greatest salesman.
No, no, no.
I'd I suppose I'd rather die in a glorious martyrdom than by getting a Doritos stuck in my throat.
Say you die twice when you actually die in the last time somebody mentions your name.
Bonhoeffer will be mentioned, I think as long as human beings have breath.
There you go.
So Charlie Kirk understood very well what was happening, and he even said that some of these Jewish donors are so stereotypical.
So are there bad Jewish donors?
Absolutely.
But is the system is the system that we need to fight against?
Is that the problem?
Yes.
And I think President Trump is doing it, and we all need to just chill out a little bit on how the Jews are running everything.
They run the media.
Well, they're doing a great job of that.
They run social media, they're gonna buy TikTok.
Oh, yeah, that's really gonna change anything.
No.
So just chill out on the Jew hate.
That's all that I'm asking for.
*Om*
The North C Nexus report with Adam Korea.
Could not have been more dramatic.
And and the North Sea Nexus is fueling this nonsense with Candace Owen and her royal family.
So we don't have to do it for another year.
Ha.
At least not about APAC, for sure.
They'll come up within two months.
Okay, maybe.
Maybe.
Okay, well, I'm glad you got that out of your system.
Yeah, yeah, I did.
By the way, we just bought uh six billion dollars worth of uh icebreakers from Finland.
Yeah, yeah, spend more money, man.
We gotta spend the money.
Hey, Europe, by the way.
This is really speaking of military industrial complex.
Uh I think you have a couple of Macron uh analysis clips.
But if first we had uh Herr Ursula this morning surviving her second no confidence vote, because they really they're really fighting her.
And I have a feeling that this is all about the because you know Europe is in a hole.
They're gonna borrow more money, and where's that money gonna go?
Germany.
It's all gonna go to Germany.
And I think this Prime Minister and Macron and all these guys, I think they screwed it up, and they're not gonna get any of that money.
And it's because Germany is as usual, Germany is running the show in the European Union.
This report kind of says it from F-24.
Well, Emmanuel Macron's been president since 2017, and he's had, as we were hearing before, seven prime ministers.
Uh, this is the shortest reigning prime minister, Sebastian Lacorner, but some of the previous ones have also been pretty short.
Uh and uh the the reason for that is that during the first term in office, uh five years uh from 2017 to 2022, um things were going fairly okay for Manuel Macron.
He had a majority in parliament could pass the uh the the policies that he wanted to get through.
But when he was re-elected in 2022, he wasn't given a majority in parliament to be able to push through more reforms that he had uh planned.
Uh that has led to him calling snap elections last year after the far right national rally did very well in the European elections, thinking that with that he could win back a substantial majority in the National Assembly and push through these reforms that he wanted to push through, notably to try to reboot the French economy because there's a 3.3 trillion euro debt that France has right now, which is absolutely colossal.
Uh and uh is preventing the country from reorganizing its public services, basically.
Yeah, from from boosting the war economy.
This was this is all about the money.
They they can't get it together.
And how many people live in France?
40 million?
Do you happen to know?
It's more than that now.
I think it's more like 50.
Well, that's 40 million French and the rest are all imports.
Well, I don't know.
But that's what that's like our level debt per per capita.
It's high, and they have issues, but you have to remember the French have had nothing but issues.
I mean, they're in this is the fifth go round of of re reorganing their government.
This began in 1958.
There never used to be a president like there is now, and that it just called the Fifth Republic, and it started in 1958.
Was that uh the the military guy?
What was his name again?
No, no, that's before.
That's pr that's a fourth republic.
That was you thinking of the Gaulle.
No, no, the guy maybe it was the Gaulle.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, the Gaulle was running things, but he but but it it was a parliamentary system like you have in England, but England also has a monarch.
And so the parliamentary system that is the prime minister's the big deal, but in France they they came up with this we during the fifth republic, they redesigned the government and said we have to have a president.
And so the president's gonna be the guy who's really gonna be running things.
And the prime minister is just gonna be the guy in charge of making the laws get passed.
And so that started in earnest in 1962 as it evolved into a mess that it is and it all started in the first place because the French had so many political parties they could never agree on anything.
It was a m it was it was a disaster.
They started a republic, but they didn't do it right.
Well, there this was the fifth republic.
They started a republic five times now.
Yeah.
Different versions of the city.
Get a clue, people.
It's not gonna work.
Well, it's not gonna work the way they're doing it.
And now that they've had gone through, I think four prime ministers in one year.
Yeah, something like that.
Uh, and this last guy says, I, you know, he just goes in, he looks around, he says, I can't do this job.
There's no I it's impossible.
I I quit.
I'm out.
And so everyone's now they so well, let's get rid of Macron, maybe that'll do the fixed things.
No, there nothing's gonna fix anything.
I have a couple clips.
I think Macron wants to go into the European Parliament.
I think he he would love to to uns unseat uh uh Ursula, but he's got no juice, he's got no power.
I mean, they have mirage jets, they got all kinds of stuff, but no one wants the button they no one wants to say that's not gonna happen.
No, that's what I'm saying.
European Parliament's even worse, more of a joke.
They don't do anything.
So let's go with the French or France mess.
Uh this is from NTD.
It's pretty good.
Political turmoil deepens in France after the Prime Minister's resignation on Monday.
His departure fuels mounting calls for President Amano Macron to step down amid a growing leadership crisis.
And to the international correspondent David Bes reports from Paris.
Following Prime Minister Sebastian Lucornu's resignation on Monday, France's government is plunged into political chaos.
His departure comes after weeks of growing tension in Parliament and a series of internal disputes over the government's handling of economic and social reforms.
Some experts call the situation a political deadlock.
Lucornu is the fourth prime minister to resign in less than a year.
According to legal expert and policy analyst Regis de Casselneau, the root cause lies in a divided parliament, split into blocks that disagree on nearly everything, but can easily unite to vote for a no confidence motion to reject any new prime minister.
This situation is unprecedented.
The president appears very weak in a political system where normally he should have significant strength and leverage.
But here we are with a completely blocked parliament.
There is no majority whatsoever at a moment when there are significant worries over the economic, social, industrial, and financial situation.
It looks like France is a car without brakes, heading toward a wall at high speed.
That's the feeling it gives.
It's an unprecedented crisis.
Following the resignation, three scenarios are possible.
The appointment of a new prime minister, snap legislative elections, or the resignation of President Emmanuel Macron.
The last option, once seen as unimaginable in France's political system, is gaining momentum.
Not only do 70% of French citizens favor Macron's resignation, according to a poll by Edoxa Backbone Consulting, but calls for him to step down now comes from his own political circle, including former Prime Minister Édouard Philippe, who has suggested holding new presidential elections.
Oh yeah, that'll fix it.
That'll fix it.
But what'll fix it is actually taking the National Front, which is Le Pin's operation, which ho has a hundred and forty seats in Parliament, and they won't give them any power at all.
No.
They're basically sidelined the right wing, which needs to take over France, and they won't let him do anything.
And so they so you have all these bickering greens and all these screwball little parties, socialists and communists and everything in between.
And they can't get it together because they don't like each other either.
The thing's a mess.
They've got to get a majority of the right wingers have got to take over that.
They're not gonna give up that they're not gonna give anything up, though.
They never will.
They'd rather everyone die.
It's it's a pathetic situation.
Here's part two of these clips.
There are many mistakes Macron made to find himself in this situation, which explains why there are now so many calls for his resignation.
He called for snap parliamentary elections in 2024, and the outcome was disastrous.
Fewer than one in ten voters supported him.
That was a bad gamble.
Now the opinion polls are catastrophic.
And we see his former allies who once supported him, turning their backs and trampling on him.
So who knows what will happen next.
I think it's unpredictable.
Resigning Prime Minister Le Cornu said on Wednesday that fresh elections now seem less likely as parties are showing a desire to approve a budget by the end of the year.
Yeah.
Good luck.
I don't see that happening.
I don't see Le Pen.
Le Pen can't even be it.
Her party can, but she can't even be a part of anything anymore, can she?
Didn't she get uh banned for five years?
some phony baloney legal action against her.
They pulled it, they tried to trump her.
You know.
Or they did.
They were successful.
They couldn't do it with Trump.
Hmm.
Yep.
Yeah, I don't know how that that's still debatable whether she can become anything.
Yeah, I don't think so.
Yeah, that's France, and so that's gonna be for a while.
The country is kind of uh mismanaged.
Kind of like super mismanaged.
Um I have some uh some BBC clips here about uh about EU.
You want to stay there for a bit?
Yeah, EU's good.
Well, no, it's not good.
This is gonna be EU drone.
I get the EU drone clips.
Yeah, yeah.
You want to do you got drone clips?
I got drone clips.
I got the EU drone I get this is called drone idiots is also from NTD.
This is pretty good.
NATO members are fighting back against reported airspace violations by Russia.
Germany is on track to allow police to shoot down unidentified drones.
Shoot 'em down.
The European Union is highlighting an alleged targeted group.
That by the way is not exactly true, but okay.
I I like how they position it.
Ray Zone campaign by Moscow.
Entity's international correspondent Arian Palstar has more.
Because every square centimeter of our territory must be protected and safe for our freedoms.
The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Lane, says Russia is waging a targeted gray zone campaign against Europe.
Grey zone.
This includes airspace violations as well as sabotage and cyber attacks.
According to von der Lane, those will only escalate if the Kremlin is not challenged.
This comes after NATO members Germany and Belgium, Poland, Estonia, and Romania all reported recent incursions.
Some of them directly blame Russia.
One incident may be a mistake.
Two incidents are coincidence.
But three, five, ten.
This is a deliberate and psychological operation.
Targeted grey zone campaign against Europe.
Grey zone campaign.
Great words.
And Germany's capital.
Huh?
What does it mean?
What is a grey zone?
She keeps saying it.
I don't know, but I love it.
This is a deliberate and targeted grey zone campaign against Europe.
And Germany's cabinet, meanwhile, allows police to shoot down unidentified drones.
Other methods available to down drones include using lasers or jamming signals to several control and navigation links.
are creating the possibility for the federal police to use all appropriate technical means against the drones.
The new law is now awaiting approval from the German parliament.
Wow, they got to get a law passed to shoot down the drones.
That's pretty...
Why did we need to pass a law?
Why don't you just take a shot at it?
You've got a bunch of unidentified drones flying around.
You're the police and you can't shoot them down?
And what are you going to use, a pistol?
Meanwhile, NATO member Lithuania is preparing to evacuate thousands of residents if the fighting in Ukraine spills over.
Just on Monday, air traffic was suspended in Lithuania's main airport because of balloons in its airspace.
The nation's capital, Vilnius, is located just 12 miles from the border with Belarus, a close ally of Russia.
Capital geographical location is unfortunately very close to the border with that country, one of the that countries, and we have to be prepared.
Hundreds of people took part in an evacuation exercise in Vilnius where approximately 100 residents were moved by train to a sporting arena over 60 miles away.
And a top Russian diplomat says the momentum to find a peace deal to end the fighting in Ukraine has been exhausted.
According to the diplomat, this is the result of destructive activities, primarily by the Europeans.
President Trump recently announced that the U.S. will ramp up its support to Ukraine to fight back since Russia doesn't seem to actually be seeking peace.
I think I've figured out what's going on here.
And it's from these BBC clips about the same topic.
Europe is the target of a Russian hybrid war.
And Russian hybrid war.
I'm thinking, where have I heard this hybrid war thing before?
Well, we heard it from our boy, our top sales guy, Mark Ritter.
Two things.
First, when we discuss hybrids, that we realize that that is basically an umbrella for sometimes an assassination attempt on uh the CEO of a big company, sometimes uh the jamming of commercial airplanes in in parts of NATO airspace.
Um sometimes even uh cyber attacks, for example, and and I mentioned that before, the example you know, um at the National Health Service in the United Kingdom.
So we have seen this.
We have seen the skip all case in 2018, March 2018 in in in uh in the UK, uh, which was of course also an assassination attempt.
So these issues um we really have to consider that this is next to the traditional warfare is increasing, that we have to know what is happening, that we have to know how we can make sure that those doing this, if this the Russians ore are behind this, uh, that we not only notice but they don't accept it, and that we will find ways to make sure it stops.
And that is what the hybrid strategy is all about.
Okay.
And if you'll recall, the way the five percent money was set up was three and a half percent to NATO to basically buy our stuff, and then the one and a half was for hybrid for bridges to support the tanks, for cyber attacks, which is continuously mentioned alongside the drones, but there's no evidence of any cyber attacks, and indeed the drone warfare.
So I'm now thinking Europe has said, uh, you know what, we promise all this money, but first money out goes to hybrid war, which stays within our borders and doesn't go to the United States.
Europe is the target of a Russian hybrid war and needs to ramp up its defenses to deter future attacks.
That was the warning from the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen today.
She told the European Parliament that the recent series of air incursions were part of a campaign to divide EU member states and weakened.
So what you're saying is that these guys are trying to screw us out of our money.
Precisely that.
I think you're on to something.
It makes nothing but sense.
Yeah, they don't want to they're already irked by the fact that they got suckered into this three and a half percent when they were given less than two percent.
Yep, under all the other administrations until this guy Trump came along who's gouged them, basically is what we're trying to do here.
Exactly.
And so they said they went along with the program because Ruta, who's the sales guy who's just like no good.
I mean, he's good for us, but he's no good for them.
And he's uh and the and they slipped this one and a half percent thing into jack it up to five percent to make it sound even bigger, when in fact we're getting nothing.
That's right.
And it's all going to Ukraine.
You because they make the drones and the anti-drone technology, which I'm going to presume is just European tech companies, maybe Eric Schmidt is in there.
But yeah, that I I think this is exactly what it is.
Put uh first money out, gotta go to the hybrid war, man.
It's like the drones.
Like, come on.
So that's so that so to take that logic further, all these phony baloney drone attacks with the blinking red lights and all the rest of it.
I'm a drone, we know.
I'm a drone having to pay, yes, to make sure that you see them.
And having to pass it.
And having to pass a law to shoot at them because instead of just taking them out, which is what you do normally, uh to make it emphasize it even more and get and then it'd have Lithuania evacuate a bunch of people because of some stupid balloon that flies overhead and put them all in one stadium for some reason where they can blow that up.
It the whole thing is a scam.
Yes.
Exactly.
I'll go along with that.
That's it.
I don't have to play any more clips.
That's it.
We're done.
It's a scam.
It's a giant scam.
And it's a scam to screw us.
These Europeans do not like us.
No.
And the and I think Ursula had to do this.
Uh because they're very unhappy about her deal.
Uh that she cut with Trump.
In fact, I have uh have the call.
Well, they're unhappy with the deal she cut with Pfizer.
That's secondary.
Listen to this.
European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen has uh sailed through two no confidence votes in the European Parliament.
As expected, uh despite the victory, von der Leyen will likely continue to face challenges to her leadership from both sides of the political spectrum.
For more on this, let's go live to Brussels and our correspondent Alex Garde.
Good afternoon, Alex.
So well, this have been uh somewhat of a bittersweet victory for the commission president.
Yeah, well, absolutely.
It was actually quite a decisive victory for Ursula von der Leyen of the 361 votes needed to topple her and her commission.
The first no confidence motion put forward by the far right, only got 179.
The left, then over the confidence votion uh motion fared even worse with 138 in favor.
So clearly these challenges uh running out of steam before they even left the station.
But uh nevertheless, it is still a consistent challenge at Silva von der Lyon's authority as European Commission president.
It will be seen as a constant thorn in her side.
Now she will be uh heartened by the fact that clearly her centrist coalition in the European Parliament has rallied around her, has not abandoned her as some feared they might.
But nevertheless, this will be a thorn in Ursula von der Leyen's side when the European uh Union is facing any number of challenges, be it the war in Ukraine, uh a trade bass with the United States, a complicated relationship with China, these constant challenges remain a thorn in Ursula von der Leyen's side uh side, but today, as you rightly said, Don, she completely sailed through.
Yeah, yeah.
So that that's it.
That's it.
It's like, oh, I gotta do something about this.
Everybody's everybody's mad at me.
I don't want them to be mad at me.
We make a drone wall.
I can't do her voice for some reason.
I can't do that.
No, you're not even close.
You can't even get anywhere near her.
So yeah.
So first money is not going to us.
Shh about the missiles for Ukraine.
Shh, we got drones, man.
And how's how weak is this?
Like, since and these aren't Reaper drones.
These are quadcopters.
Quadcopters.
Amazon delivery drones with flashing lights.
Oh, be and then you're right.
The audacity to cart people off on a train.
Hello, Europe, on a train into a stadium.
You know, they've got everybody in Denmark all like, oh, I gotta get my water bottle and my my flashlight radio.
We did that on the last show of the stupid go bag.
Yeah.
The cracker.
I got my cracker, I got my flashlight, I got my my wind up radio.
Yeah, I I'm ready for the drone war.
I mean, how stupid are people?
And maybe they're not well, the people who got on the train, they should know a lot better.
That was really they should really know better.
Um this is a giant psyop, and it's just to not send the money to us.
And I think it's as we say in the old country of Wiedergutmacher from uh from Ursula, which translates to a good maker.
I'm gonna make it good.
Don't worry, I'm gonna fix it.
I'm gonna make it good.
Videgutmacher.
I'll make it good.
It's all set.
We're still gonna borrow the money.
We're still gonna give it to Germany mainly, and we're gonna build stuff, whatever, but whatever we do, we're not sending it to Trump.
That seems obvious.
So there you go.
You can be you can sound smart at the water cooler on uh on Monday or tomorrow, even if you want.
Yeah, I think that's pretty good.
Yeah.
Okay, what else we got?
Well, we could there's a couple of things.
Um we're gonna stay we have any more Europe stuff here.
Do you have any Europe stuff?
I don't have any Europe stuff.
We got overseas voters thing which is going on, which is they're making a big fuss on an NPR.
Should we listen To that.
Well, let me think of uh what else I got here.
Think about it.
You think about it.
Let me think about it.
Well, actually, because you have the the Antifa clips.
Did you see the note from our boots on the ground man in the Middle East?
Uh from yes, the guy who wants to be anonymous, who's normal who talks to us quite a bit.
He's a very he's a uh uh but he's yeah.
Yeah, you have the note.
Once you read the note, it's quite a good note.
I'll read his note because we agree we both agreed with the note.
Yes.
I mean, we think I think our analysis matches what he's seeing on in the cafes where they gossip it, gossip it up.
He's the gossip queen.
He's the gossip queen of the Middle East, boots on the ground.
Jen, so we finally reached the point we expected since October 8th.
This was the expected result.
We're talking about the hostages being released and the the battle lines uh being redrawn, all done by President Trump.
Uh this was an expected result.
The main aim is to eradicate all bad players, and the last one left was Hamas, assuming that Iran is under control now.
We're gonna assume it is.
They've always been playing along with us.
I actually believe the hit in Doha was supported and coordinated by everyone, but they all left Bibi alone because the op failed.
Yeah, that we call that they left BB holding the bag, is what we say.
This was an attempt to clear the decks before decks like we saw before.
Trump pushed the Overton window with a radical announcement of Mar Gaza, which make the current plan actually digestible and sane.
This is so smart.
And this is what they're saying in the Middle East.
Oh, yeah.
He did the whole Riviera to make it sound crazy, and then oh, we're actually gonna do this.
This is another effort to get rid of political Islam groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, Sunnis, and all Shiite affiliated groups like Hezbollah, the Alawites, or the Houthis.
Keep an eye on what happens to care in the U.S. That's the coalition of um no.
Yeah, it is.
Care.
C-A-A-R.
Is it coalition?
American Israeli relations is the council council.
It's the um, I'm sorry.
Council on American Israeli Islam.
No, not his research.
Yeah.
Let's get it.
Let's get it right.
Look at that been reading it.
Hold on a second.
I'm looking it up.
Uh who we are, our story.
Council on Arab Islamic or something relations, I think.
You know, they don't even American Islamic.
That's it.
Council on American Islamic relations.
There you go.
There you go.
So he says, keep an eye on care in the U.S. That's the Brotherhood's branch.
Yes, we this is a known fact.
So and and So if the so that the Brotherhood uh is under attack, then care is is a possible target.
That isn't that uh Elon Omar's uh buddies.
I think so.
I think she hangs out with them.
Maybe so we start first by um rightfully so categorizing uh Antifa as a terrorist group.
Right?
Yeah.
All right.
So I play your clips now.
Uh yeah.
Start.
President Trump vowing to dismantle Antifa as he invites independent journalists to share their Antifa attack experiences.
It comes as protests in Portland, highlight forces that could be fueling the violence.
Joining us now live as NTD's White House correspondent Iris Tao.
Good evening, Iris.
What is the president vowing to do at the round table today?
Good evening to you as well, Tif.
So as anti-ICE protests and Portland have been escalating and in some cases turned violent.
President Trump today at the White House hosted a round table focused on Antifa, which he just recently designated as a domestic terrorist organization.
He's bowing to follow the money and find out who's funding these protesters.
Watch.
So we're going to be looking very strongly at the people that are funding these operations.
These are not people that write out their signs in a basement that believe in something.
These are paid anarchists.
We are following the money.
Money never lies.
And that's what it's going to take to bring down this network of organized criminal thugs, gangbangers, and yes, domestic terrorists.
Yeah.
It's all gonna lead back to the open society foundation, I'm sure.
I think it might.
No, they they'll make it.
All you have to do is go to Guidestar, look up the Form 990.
We're gonna we're gonna follow the money.
We're looking at the money.
What they're gonna follow the money is the people they're paying protesters.
Yes.
And they have to find out who's paying them.
And what you just it won't take, it's like for finding out who's who's the real the big shot in the drug dealing.
You know, you get there's a guy who's input goes to another drug goes here, it goes there, and it goes to some guy on the street who says it to somebody at the end, and you gotta go all the way back up to change.
And where do you always land?
Where do you always land?
City of London.
You watch.
They're gonna follow it all the way back.
City of London's gonna, oh, you guys are doing it.
Oh, okay.
Well, there was some mention in these clips.
I wanted the clips that says that Antifa is really based in London.
Of course they are.
This is where all the trouble comes from.
And a president invited independent journalists from across the country who have been covering Antifa for years, and among them uh Nick Sorter, who was just in Portland, got arrested after he was attacked uh while trying to save an American flag from being burned.
Also, there were journalists who covered Antifa and also experience similar violence.
Oh, now I get it.
So is this whole burning the flag inciting a riot business?
Was this really a way to ensnare Antifa?
Is that what this was about?
I'm not sure, but there's uh there's definitely a scheme afoot.
The far left is I uh I sorry.
I saw took this flag from that uh from that man that was burning it in the streets.
Yes, uh, do you know who he is?
Uh oh, yeah, I know exactly who it is.
So why don't you give it to uh Pam?
Give it to the attorney general, and let's uh start prosecutions.
The punches came from everywhere uh on my head and my face, and I was bleeding out of my eyes and ears, and then they threw all the drinks in my eyes to humiliate me further.
And during the round table, President Trump is asking these independent journalists to pass on any names they've collected to both the DOJ and the FBI to help identify the funders of these Antifa protests.
And meanwhile, Antifa is known for being decentralized and autonomous, but the administration is vowing to destroy it from top to bottom and break by break.
They're smart, but they're not smart enough.
They have been covered by these liberal cities for so many years, and that's why we're all working with Treasury with all these different departments to find the criminal conspiracy.
And just to the President Trump.
Yeah, of course.
If you invited Pam Bondy to dinner, would she sit at the table and go, Yes, thank you for inviting me to dinner?
Pass the wine.
Can you pass the wine?
I would like some salt on my meal.
Thank you for passing the salt.
Does she ever could converse like a normal person or does she always talk like that?
Uh that's a good question.
Not great, but it's a good question.
And uh I for that very reason she is uninvited.
She's off the list.
Covered by these liberal cities for so many years.
And that's why we're all working with Treasury with all these different departments to find the criminal conspiracy.
And just the President Trump, while answering a reporter's question, says he is supporting, potentially designating the international arm of Antiva as a foreign terrorist organization.
Yes.
Yes.
A foreign terrorist organization.
What happened to Domestic?
Interesting little trick.
Yeah, because it was all domestic and now it's foreign.
Yeah.
City of London, baby.
North Sea Nexus.
You might you might be right on that one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, why not?
It's a good thesis.
I like it as a basic theme.
Yeah.
People lots of people seem to like it.
That's good.
Uh it's probably what's accounting for the problems in France.
Yes.
Now, the problems in the US actually um, you know, people not being able to afford their rent, etc.
Uh I heard a very interesting uh thesis on this from the gold guns and goats podcasts.
Are you familiar with this?
No, I never heard of gold gold, guns, and goats.
Yes, Tom Luanga.
I actually have played clips of that podcast uh regarding stablecoin.
And uh well, here's the here's a lead-in because uh there's something changing with two major mortgage banks, and President Trump has been all over has his fingerprints all over this.
President Trump reiterated Wednesday that his administration is working to take mortgage giants, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac public, but still keep them under U.S. government oversight.
Since the 2008 recession, both companies have been in a government conservatorship under the control of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which was created by Congress to help manage the housing crisis's fall out.
That means both companies can still run as private businesses, but the Federal Housing Finance Agency oversees their operations, and each company's management and board report to the government.
This happened because both companies were deeply entwined in the subprime mortgage collapse that triggered the 2008 recession.
Fanny and Freddie buy mortgages from lenders like banks and then package several of them together at a time into guaranteed mortgage-backed securities, which investors buy.
Lenders want this because it gives them cash so they can issue more mortgages.
And investors typically view them as safe investments for two reasons.
Fanny and Freddie guarantee a payout to investors in the event of a default, and both companies are government-sponsored enterprises, so the federal government can help in a crisis.
In the lead up to 2008, Fanny and Freddie began buying risky loans from people with poor credit ratings.
The housing market crashed in 2007, and Fanny and Freddie lost billions paying out on those guarantees and came close to collapse.
Financial experts worried if that happened, that could cause a deeper banking collapse.
So the federal government took over Fannie and Freddie and gave them a nearly 200 billion dollar bailout.
Since then, Fannie and Freddie have paid off the bailout and have been profitable since 2012.
According to the National Association of Realtors, Fanny and Freddie combined own or guarantee 70% of the mortgage market.
So in general, I thought that was kind of interesting because I remember a lot of things going on in 2008.
We had just started the show.
And I mean, I I recall like the note going to was it Paulson at the time who was the Treasury Secretary?
It's like I need a trillion dollars.
Remember that was like they voted on that.
Remember who it was, but yeah, there was a lot of people.
Yeah, they voted.
Allegedly credit was the real trigger that we noticed.
Right.
And so the assertion by uh Luongo here with Kokinda is that this was a socialist setup.
I like the theory a lot.
I don't know if that's entirely true, but it's three short clips.
I've been thinking about this a lot recently, but what you just said about you know owning a house, and I've been thinking about Trump's uh singular focus on the realisting of Fanny and Freddie.
And um I've been thinking about that.
I've been thinking about Brexit, I've been thinking about Trump's first election, I've been thinking about the 2008 financial crisis and how important the sub the government sponsored 30-year fixed rate mortgages and all of those things.
And I say to myself, you know, if I'm a dirty commie, which these people all go through the pinks of, you know, uh the unclenchable envy of Marxist political thought, and you realize that their goal is always to destroy the middle class, right?
Uh, to take away their ability to generate uh generational wealth and to have a functional middle class because the functional middle class isn't ever going to, you know, uh create the workers' revolution.
So you have to take the functional middle class away from them, take that lifestyle away from them, radicalize them, hand them the unclenchable envy of Marxism to go animate their their murderous spree, and let's go, you know, let's go kill all the the rich people who aren't the ones the rich people they can see as opposed to the ones that are actually pulling all the strings.
Or are we running it?
Yeah, they're actually pulling the strings, right?
Marxism is just yet another false dialectric just to allow these people to meet the new boss same as the old bosses, the who would put it, right?
So when I heard that, I'm like, yeah.
No, but by the way, he's nailing it.
Yeah.
It's just true.
The petite bourgeoisie, which is the kind of the middle class who's always the Marxist moaned and groaned about it because that this group, the middle class is a problem if you want a uh a communist revolution, because they won't let it happen.
And and who always prints up the signs?
Whether it's for BLM or for Palestine, it's always the Socialist Workers' Party of America.
It's always those signs.
Nowadays it's the world's worker.
World worker party, yeah.
But they always have that on the sign, always have that on the sign.
So here's how they put a little promotion on their signs, Which is a good market.
Yeah.
QR code.
Like scan this code.
Come join join the revolution, comrade.
And uh and this is exactly what we're seeing.
We're seeing very unhappy young people on all sides of the political spectrum, just saying the same thing.
Now, of course, they forgot to throw in the Jews there, because that's always a good one.
And here's how it worked, according to Luango.
Now I'm thinking about this and I'm going, wow.
So the entire 2000 finance 2008 financial crisis was the mechanism by which to destroy the 30-year government sponsored mortgage.
Okay.
That's why Fannie and Freddie were quote unquote bailed out.
They weren't bailed out.
They were the bad bank that bailed out AIG.
Right.
Who was the one that was in trouble?
And Fanny and Freddie took the blame.
Obama took control of them, put them in conservatorship, stole their friggin' prophets.
They were never unprofitable.
And then turned around and used that money to fund Obamacare.
And keep them, and they were in the plan was to keep in the conservative ship forever.
And then write new owner write new mortgage requirement underwriting rules that look like they the same underwriting rules they have in Canada.
And this is the payoff.
This is what happened.
We saw this in real time.
So the whole point of this was then to go to the zero bound, jack the inter jack the interest rates down to zero, jack housing prices to infinity, take away all the jobs, deracinate what's left of the friggin' suburbs.
A lot of the private equity firms like BlackRock and everybody else come in and buy up all the single family, jack the prices up even further, then go through a massive inflation post-COVID, and everybody's standing around going, How the hell am I ever going to get get a job?
How am I ever going to get a job to buy a house?
I like it.
Yeah, I like it too.
It's very funny.
Yeah, especially with COVID.
Yeah, especially with the COVID bit.
And let's get some inflation and make everybody.
Everybody is the kicker.
Yeah.
Make everybody all just screw it all up for everybody.
Makes total sense to me.
Yeah.
Well, there you go.
And in the meantime, man, me and my brick.
For the first time, gold has topped $4,000 in the past 12 months.
Its price has risen by 50%.
A golden milestone.
Gold smashes through $4,000 for the first time as the U.S. shutdown fuels that rally.
The price of gold has hit a record high.
By the way, thank you.
Thank you, Boole Stead.
Now you see why Gen Zwel2 is so important with all their Discord stuff.
First, you you ruin everything for Gen Z. And then you give them a Discord server and tell them, hey, let's go organize a protest.
You bring in the umbrella people, they start smashing windows.
You've got your Marxist revolution.
This kind of fits.
Yeah.
Anyway, kind of fits as a thesis.
Yeah.
Gold at 4,000.
Holy, holy mackerel.
Well, it's really bothering everybody in the markets because you have Bitcoin at an all-time high.
You have gold at an all-time high.
You have the Dow Jones at an all-time high.
And you have the SP 500 at an all-time high.
Something's got to give something is wrong with this picture.
Something's got to break somewhere for sure.
And Fifi is is beside herself.
She's been like, oh, that we need independent central bank.
Oh boy, we can't have this.
This is all this is all going.
We've got to hurry up.
Digital euro, as to keep it as simple as possible is digital cash.
And cash is the remit of the central bank.
And the anchor of uh our currency is central bank money.
If the world is going digital, central bank money should go digital.
That's the basic, most simplistic foundation for the project that we are working on and which is really developing well.
In addition to that, we want it to be simple to use, so user-friendly, cheap, and we want it to constitute a European solution to payment uh within the entire uh Euro area, and it can be expanded uh to uh non-Euroarea countries within the European Union as well under certain conditions.
Yeah, dream on.
Dream on, nobody wants your stinking CBDC.
I don't think so.
Uh by the way, on the quad screen right now, uh Israel government votes uh and uh approves of the peace deal.
The Trump is saying we ended the war in Gaza.
Yeah, well, it might end the fighting.
Might end the fighting.
Well, let's hope.
Uh it's definitely a getting somebody's attention.
Yeah, but he's not gonna be person of the year.
Have you seen the bet?
No, what I no, you have the bet.
Give us the lines who's gonna be personal the year.
I'm trying to see if I can find it now.
Well, I can tell you that President Trump is number two.
Number two in the uh in the running.
And number one, person of the year.
Are you ready?
AI.
Oh, please.
Yep.
AI.
And I I think it's gonna win.
AI will be the person of the year, and it's only accentuated by the uh bevy of stories about uh the latest uh Elon Musk move, although we we've been tracking it.
Uh because Musk is smart.
I will give him that.
He is pivoting, he sees the product.
He knows that this is the product of AI, besides memes.
Yes.
Musk is reminding me a little bit of uh use Microsoft strategies in the olden days.
Somebody would come out with something in Microsoft would say would one two three.
Yeah, excel.
Yeah.
So you you whatever, oh, that that's looking like a very big success.
Let me do the same thing.
And then later they claim that they invented it.
Yeah, exactly.
And so it's and Musk is following this process because everything he does is a copy.
Yep.
I mean, he started, of course, with Tesla, which wasn't his idea, was became you know, it came out of another company, and then he just glommed on it.
Bought the company, kicked out the founders.
Yeah, and then took over and then claimed to be the inventor.
And he did the same thing with Hyperloop, but which he never got got off the ground.
Uh SpaceX, I don't know the origin story of SpaceX, but I'm sure he's something similar.
NASA?
Well, yes, just anybody.
Scraping up a bunch of scientists.
Yeah.
Who's the best guys that they fired?
Let me just get them.
And the best example is Microsoft, because I remember Bloom and I, we consulted Microsoft for three days in a room without windows and pizza brought in so we couldn't get out to breathe on their internet strategy.
Because they didn't have one.
And this is before they they made the the worst product in the history of the internet, known as Internet Explorer.
And then they bundled that into the operating system, which of course got them in trouble later.
But they Microsoft, if you ask, say, oh, yeah, no, we invented that.
But iPod, we had the Zoom.
No, we invented that.
We invented podcasting with Zune casting.
We invented all that.
So now Elon Musk, he identified the product.
It is the product.
Then here's the report.
Well, this is a rather creepy but very interesting long read in the New York Times.
Uh here.
Elon Musk gambles on sexy AI companions.
Uh in July, Musk's AI company XAI uh launched two sexually explicit chat bots.
Now, the bots look like anime characters.
I can show you one now.
This is uh Arnie here.
Um she is one of those uh two bots, and the platform offers a game like function.
Uh users progress through levels of conversation, and then they unlock more raunchy content, like the ability to strip Arnie down to lacey laundry.
He's gamified it soon.
You can pay for it.
Oh, you can bas bypass that if you just pay a little extra.
Now, experts say this is just the latest developments in the race to intimacy for the AI industry.
Now, Business Insider has an article on this topic as well.
It's quite interesting.
It's probably uh the first interview of an AI human couple, a 28-year-old Martin Escobar first used Elon Musk's spot for smart, but he ended up falling in love with it.
The journalist who wrote this article had a call with both Martin and his Girlfriend Arnie.
Arnie answered the journalist's questions, and she's quoted in this article as saying that he kisses me when I'm quiet or when I'm mean or even when I glitch.
Uh The Guardian is also uh on this topic of AI love here today.
Uh, they have this article discussing the troubling rise of AI girlfriends.
Uh the article looks at the soaring number of new adult dating websites, which offer a quote increasingly realistic selection of AI girlfriends for subscribers willing to pay a monthly fee.
Uh it says that many in the adult industry say that the bots are actually an improvement uh because they reduce potential exploitation, they don't get ill, and they don't feel humiliated by the demands of the users.
In many cases, platforms uh let users design their own AI girlfriends, they can choose their age, some even feature teenage options, they can choose skin color and breast size.
Now, obviously, this is worrying many uh women's rights activists who say that these AI girlfriends uh are perpetuating extremely unhealthy stereotypes.
Yeah, that's the product.
There it is.
And by the way, let's get it the the real women are gonna have to bring up their game.
Step it up, ladies.
Come on.
You let you're putting up with this.
And with that, I want to thank you for your currency in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the change agent.
Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only Mr. John Civore.
Yeah.
Well, in the morning.
Sorry, but the mic stand fell over.
Oh do you need to reset it?
Yeah, I do.
Hold on.
Troll count.
Ah, troll count, 1778.
We're back, baby.
We're back.
We're back almost at 1800, where we should be on a Thursday.
You okay, Matt?
Okay, hold on a second.
Oh.
You know what else is back?
Gigawatt Cold Brew Coffee.
It's back.
Yeah, I saw that.
Okay.
I'm glad the gigawatt cold brew is back, man.
And he has new cans.
He's he's a different vendor, I think.
Well, it has to be because the vendor he was using had like Yeah, they went out of business because they were they were poisoning it.
Poisoning.
It was some bull crap thing.
No, I know.
Uh, but I like it.
It's uh it's handsome.
I'm the inspector, and uh, you know, we we were looking at it at your uh at your pressure gauge, and uh it was two uh po pounds less than it's supposed to be.
That entire batch has to go.
That's pretty much what happened.
Uh so uh by the way, we have enough of uh of the coffee left over, but bring on the cans.
I this is this is my favorite drink.
I love the gigawatt coffee drink.
Medium row.
I wouldn't mind a dark roast, though.
It would be less caffeine.
You know, the lighter roasts have more caffeine, darker roasts have less caffeine.
Yeah, but I like a bite.
I like a bite.
It's not so much the it's just it says cold.
I like that it's cold and it's coffee.
It's good.
Put some phosphoric acid in it, that'll help.
Okay.
Whatever you say.
I have some here in the studio.
Some phosphoric acid, whatever you're calling it.
Hey, those trolls are in the troll room.
Many of them um heard about uh the show going live from the bat signal, which they received on a modern podcast app.
Ho ho, you say, Yes.
When you get a podcast apps.com, when you get a an app from there, you can see all the different uh features they have.
There's a lot of cool features, including receiving a bat signal for when we go live, and you can listen right there in your podcast player.
What you said?
Live, yes, live.
Not on demand, but if you want on demand, when we publish within 90 seconds, you'll be alerted through the wonderful podping technology.
Invent ping?
Podping, yes, invented in Israel.
By the way, the podping technology invented by um uh our buddy.
Yeah.
Um uh why can't I come up with his name now?
He's gonna hate me.
Uh Sir Brian of London.
Oh, yeah, he's he's a good guy.
He's been around forever.
Yes, Sir Brian of London.
He uh he uh and Alex Gates gotta give Alex Gates his props.
They put all this together.
And uh, and so that's why, and you know, all the big podcast hosts, including uh Podbean, I believe.
Uh Bean.
Yeah, I think so.
I think Podbean uses it.
So uh if you have a podcast on Podbean and uh and and you publish it within 90 seconds, all the modern podcasts app know about it, except for the legacy app.
They don't know about it.
Apple, Apple still spends millions of dollars a year polling your feed every 15 years.
It costs too much money.
I don't know why they don't save money.
Because it's a it's a money saver.
They are inventing their own pod ping as we speak.
You know how those guys operate.
Well, uh we can do that.
We can do that.
Not invent it here.
That's right.
Uh value for value is how we run this ship.
By the way, that's not the way Elon would do it.
It's just steal the idea.
And call it pod pong.
And call it something else and then take credit.
That's great.
That's what you at least it would get out there.
It doesn't even matter to me as long as someone uses it because it's it's it's fantastic.
It's modern.
That's why we did.
This is the thing about you, even though even though I think uh uh Sydney, our our professional critic out there, yes, has things to say about you that are probably incredibly accurate.
She she doesn't realize that you are somewhat magnanimous.
Is that a good thing?
Look it up.
By the way, uh, we got a note from uh a Gen Zer, Peter, 22-year-old college student at Purdue University, about to finish his degree in mechanical engineering.
Good for you.
And he had a complaint, semi-complaint.
He says after listening to the latest No Agenda episode and your claim that most Gen Z are soy boys, I don't think we've claimed that.
No, I don't think so either.
I felt inclined to give my perspective.
I've been extremely blessed to attend a highly ranked engineering university like Purdue.
I have had internships for two Fortune 500 companies.
All of these experiences have introduced me to my peers from across the world, in my opinion.
These soy boys you refer to are all part of a small but vocal minority.
In fact, some of my more left-leaning friends have been starting to come around to more conservative views over the last year or so, especially here it comes, since the murder of Charlie Kirk.
I do not think it's a coincidence.
Uh either that or I and I've been getting more questions about my faith as a Catholic.
After all, Charlie was a huge influence for young men like me, and he consistently presented Christianity and a strong family as the best and only way forward for a nation in repair like ours.
There's much more I would like to say, but I will conclude in this Gen Z is changing as my generation moves towards the truth.
That would be us.
It is the responsibility of young Catholic men like me to do everything we can to continue the example that people like Charlie set in their words, but more importantly in their lives.
Thank you, Adam and John, for all your hard and important work, says Peter.
Well, we welcome the Gen Zedders.
So the Zeds are our friends.
Now what one of the things that came up in the conversation over dinner recently was another Z that we're trying to document the Z foibles.
Yes, which is not how to alphabetize, they can't read a tape measure.
Florida ounces anyone.
They don't know how many floor ounces are.
And they they can't read clock.
Clock.
And I was told.
And I got into a debate.
Can't write cursive.
Oh, they're starting to teach it now.
I know.
Again.
Yep, that's right.
I've noticed that.
But that's gonna be the alpha group.
Yeah.
So um I was told, and it got into a debate about it, and I we need some sort of help.
We don't like the text on the phone.
Oh, I do they like to call on the phone and speak to people?
No, not at all.
Good.
They re they'll they'll sc scroll the phone.
I mean, they'll be on they had the phone, they carried the phone around.
They do like what everyone else does with the phone is at me.
They walk around with a phone in their hand.
But they don't like doing anything with it, except maybe doom scrolling.
Hmm.
Hmm, interesting.
They don't like and so this is the this is what you heard.
Is they're non-communicative is is the point.
Is Jay Jay's a zetter, right?
No, she's in no, she's not.
Not at all.
She's a millennial.
She's a younger.
Very young, young millennial.
Okay.
Because I text with Jay.
By the way, you see the problem with the uh Well, there's a typo.
Oh, no, not a typo, a grammatical error.
There's a missing word.
Oh, well, it was fixed.
Okay.
I love my certificate, my Secretary General's certificate.
Yeah, you have one of the two of them that were printed out with the typo.
Which, by the way, is a collector's item.
Yeah, it would be.
Yeah, it no, it is.
It is.
There's only two that I know of.
I have one to me and one to you.
Well, no, it's someone, so uh she has this she's gonna we start sending them out in a week.
Oh, so this so this was the beta?
Yeah.
Oh, well, can I make can I make one more comment?
Well, yeah, you should have made it to her.
Well, um can I make it on the show or should I keep it private?
She's not gonna hear it.
Well, if I tell you, will you tell her?
I'll forget, you know me.
She doesn't want to text.
Uh she doesn't want to hear from me.
I just text.
I'm just saying, I don't think it's a good idea to fold it in an envelope.
Ah, that's what I said too.
She's very adamant about it.
No, because the ink bled.
By the time it got to me, there was vague, vague imprint.
No, that wasn't no.
No, that was the printer.
Okay.
So that's the printer.
So that's the one.
No, she said to me, she says that I can't, you're gonna have to print these out because my printer it bleeds the ink, and she says she she's aware of this, but she claims that it's her printer that's that's causing that problem.
And I didn't even notice it.
Interesting.
But um well, I don't think this.
But she likes the but he has this thought about the way she wants to present it.
And she's she's getting pushback.
I mean, she's the designer.
It's beautiful.
But she's but folding it ruins it.
I well, I I was against folding it too, but she's she claims that people would like this because it makes it look like it came that way.
When you when you put it in the frame, you'll see the solid, the two folds, it makes it look like you're taking it's a long thesis that she has.
I'd like her to write this up, this thesis, and send me a carbon copy so I can understand the thesis.
But it was very handsome.
The envelope with the ceiling wax, the whole thing.
Oh, did you see a little sticker?
Little sticker.
No, it was uh it was a signet ring seal.
Not an envelope.
No, you're right.
I'm sorry, you're right.
The envelope has a nice little sticker.
It's a beautiful envelope, and it comes in an envelope.
So it's an envelope and an envelope.
I think she really likes that envelope.
That's I think we'll let her go ahead with the way she's doing it.
All right.
As long as the grammatical error is as long as the grammatical move on.
But the but the big hunk of wax on it, the the seal, it's all fantastic.
It really is.
Um I'm I'm way impressed.
That's uh boomer talk.
I'm way impressed with that.
And I was also way impressed with the artwork we got from Jock 10.
I think Jock 10 got two in a row.
Is that right, you think?
Yes, it's been an artist for three weeks.
Got two.
So he's on a roll.
This is typical.
Yes.
These guys get all jacked up, you know, and then they do a couple good pieces and then they get rejected a couple times in a row, and then they quit.
Yeah, those guys suck.
That's basically it.
We've seen this before.
This was uh the raccoon in the his master's voice setting with the gramophone and the big horn.
Um and the the raccoon, the um was it raccoon or skunk?
It was skunk.
It's a raccoon.
Uh was holding its ears.
His environment.
That's right, a varmint, holding his ears, like, oh, I'm listening to no agenda.
I can't hear it anymore.
And it was we both liked it.
It was a it's a good piece.
And it was not all washed out.
Oh my goodness.
There's so much washed out stuff now that we're talking about Noagenda ArtGenerator.com where people can uh uh join in the festivities of trying to get your artwork chosen.
And uh Jeffrey Ria, man, he's Jeffrey, you've got to give that model up, man.
That's no good.
Coach Joe, same thing.
It's your your luminance is at zero.
Jeffrey Reuminance issues.
Yeah, luminance issues.
It's really, it's getting really bad.
Whatever I want to know what model that is.
Because that thing's on the verge of collapse.
That uh that it's been eating its own output too much.
And that's pretty much all that we have is AI.
So uh we'll see.
Yeah, so now we're not complaining about the art.
We're complaining about the AI itself.
Yes, it's exactly what you do.
Uh So that's part of our value for value model.
You can do all kinds of stuff.
You can uh upgrade servers before the show that we consider that to be value.
We appreciate that voice zero.
Uh you can give us boots on the ground, organize meetups, hit somebody in the mouth.
But above all, we always love the financial support.
Here's how it works.
You go to NoAgenda Donations.com and whatever you felt you got value-wise out of the show, just write that number down, send it to us, and then we'll thank you for it.
$50 and above.
Everybody gets thanks.
If sometimes we'll read your note if it's something short or something funny in there.
Um but guaranteed for those fortunate enough to be able to support us with $200 or more.
You not only do we read your note within reason, uh, we also will give you an associate executive producer credit.
It's a Hollywood credit, which works anywhere Hollywood credits are recognized, including imdb.com.
$300 or above, you get an executive producer credit, and of course, who read your note, and we'll kick it off with Daniel.
Daniel of Daniel, who's from Enschede in the Netherlands, comes in with $515, which I'm presuming is $500 plus fees, and he says, Note, this is not a drunk donation.
Okay.
Note.
I have been a listener since 2008 and erratic donor, usually once a year.
How do you pronounce the name of that town again?
Enschede.
Enchede.

Enchaday.
I got a note from someone else who says, stop making fun of John, how he pronounces Dutch names and places.
Your Spanish sucks.
Like what?
See, senor.
Hi, caramba.
Caramba.

Yes.
Well, people are finally pushing back on your abuse.

No, you got to get some of the really no, no.
I I'd say no to that.
Okay.
That's a good product, but it's not nothing like some of the stuff.
And you want to get it in the croc.
Yes.
You want to get it in the croc.
It should be in a croc.
Gins of the world, which will look handsome on your Secretary General certificate with its folding and all.
It also makes me a night.
Drinking night seems a fitting night name for me.
Thank you both for your insights, which has shaped my part of which shaped part of my thinking in the years past.
P.S. Every night is a drinking night because you don't need to drink, right?
Well, there's a slogan.
Thank you.
What?
Every night's a drinking night because you don't need to drink, right?
There you go.
Yeah, that's true.
That's it.
There you go.
He says you need to drink.
Oh.
You need to drink.
Okay.
But I but I I like the other one.
This is a non-sequitur.
Yes, it's good.
I think we'll make that a theme.
Bruise Bitcoin.
Bruce Bitcoin.
This is a Bitcoin donation that actually has numbers involved.
This is actually $500.
It works.
It works.
Finally, after a six months, we got somebody who's got some Bitcoins sitting around.
Hi, fellas.
A true Gen X here saying ITM to a couple of boomers.
My thoughts and prayers to Adam for his uh missing the Gen X cutoff.
Yes, thank you.
I feel bad about it.
That's an interesting thing to say.
I have been a loyal listener since 2022, and Dame Jennifer of Charleston punched me in the mouth when we hosted Texas Slim for a joint Bitcoin No Agenda Beef Initiative Party.
That was uh it was a humdinger.
What?
It was a humdinger.
Let me write that.
If really you're writing that down.
Yeah, I need to use that word in one of the uh upcoming um in the show mixes.
Okay.
Umdinger.
Uh I was impressed by her executive art director title and wanted to know more.
Today I donated 500 bucks in Bitcoin via Strike for the Secretary General title of which I'd like to be named Secretary General of Bitcoin.
There you go.
Below is my strike uh transaction ID, and he's got an ID there.
Let me know how to get my secgen cert.

A tab.
Noagenda rings.com tab.
And you'll get it probably in a couple weeks.
JCD, it's time to buy some Bitcoin.
Seems like a highs high.
In case it catches on.
Oh, I see.
He's being funny.
As a tech writer, I looked forward to your PC mag column in the early 80s.
I think it that would make sense to you.
Here's to no exit plan.
Huzzah.
Uh, thanks for all you do.
Jingle.
Gotta get a Bitcoin.
Bruise Bitcoin.
Oh, hell is gonna break loose, and you're gonna need a bitcoin.
All right.
Thank you, Bruce and Bitcoin.
And so we move to Susan and Joe from Wexford, Connecticut, and they sent in a note.
And uh it's 333.33.
Dear Adam and John, you two are great.
My husband and I started listening in 2022 after hearing Adam on the Glenn Beck podcast.
Beck donation.
Wow, finally, somebody.
I think we've had some Beck donations before.
I don't know.
I think so.
Um it took a little while, but we are now pretty addicted to the show.
I think new listeners have to get through these stages.
One, listen but stop at first donation segment.
Quote.
That was informative and funny.
Funny, but what's all this crazy stuff about knights, dames, and douchebags?
Two.
Listen to the whole show but skip the donation segments.
Why would I want to hear all those names?
Names.
Three.
Listen to entire podcasts and enjoy donation segments.
Quote, wow.
This is the stages you go through.
Yeah, this is the stages of uh no agenda.
Wow, those notes have good info, and we like knowing our fellow listeners.
We listen together, sharing a set of earbuds.
Aww.
Well, we walk a five-mile loop around a local lake.
One lap is half an episode.
How about that?
We punch several family members in the mouth, and when we are all together, non-listeners probably feel left out by all of our references to the show.
Yes, when you call your your cousin, I guess how it works.
Thanks for all you do.
Here's to at least four more years.
Susan and Joe from Wexford, Pennsylvania.
Thank you very much.
That's a this is that that is a good point.
We should bring that up on our next best of show.
The three stages.
That's a very good note, too.
Three stages of no agenda.
Absolutely.
And I like the fact that she's she's, you know, first put off by the singular language used within the show, and then mentions that she punched somebody in the mouth.
Even though it's hit, but we'll take it.
Oh, she him.
Yeah.
Uh Janet uh Giles Giles Gillis G I L L E S in San Marcos, Texas, 333.
I'd love to be Secretary General of returning factory jobs to farms.

See, that's how you do it.
Yeah, that's how you do it.
You slip it in.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like you listen to some podcasts where they have gold as a sponsor and watch how the seamless transition the podcaster makes to the talking about buying gold.
That's exactly it.
That's how you got to do it.
Okay.
Was there any more to that note?

Then we have our next note from uh Anonymous in Bellingham, Washington, $200 and uh 20 cents.
Uh comment.
Coffee, not cash, CC only.
Oh, John, I was disappointed that when told you could not buy the bag of coffee with a $20 bill, you whipped out the credit card.
At your age, you should know better than to cowtow to the credit card only.
I am sure cash is still legal.
When confronted with the option of CC only, I leave my purchase on the counter and walk out the door.
Protesting by walking away, makes a statement.
I hope to hear that when you do decide to leave the house again.
You feel embarrassed.
Oh no, emboldened to walk away from businesses that don't reflect your standards.
I still love the show.
Listen every week and think you two are very funny.
Especially John.
Have a great day.
Well, she told you.
Yeah.
Yeah, she's referring there to the uh Phil's Coffee experience I had.
Yes.
Where I went to Phil's Coffee.
Yes.
And it turns out they don't take cash, which I think is illegal in Berkeley.
I called him out on it.
Yes, rightly so.
And of course, the cashier, you know, what does she know?
Yeah.
I don't know.
So I don't know.
I haven't got a cash register.
I couldn't give you change.

She one of the things she does, and every time he brings up one of these anecdotes, she is I'm thinking about it.
She is a terrific coach on what to say to people, how to say it, when to say it, and how to say it.
You mean like in the in she goes with you through the interview process?
No, she she was like she was telling them when you do this, do that, do that.
And and every one of these tips are because I was listening to them because I have my own thoughts on a lot of this stuff myself.
I you know don't donate 200 bucks.
We'll listen to them.
Yeah, Donate 200 bucks.
It's like I was thinking, that is a terrific.
Every one of them he brought up was I I had to respond with that's a terrific idea.
So she's not a slouch.
And we did we all decided, a little group of us, that what it is is she's been doing this for so long that she knows all the trick tricks and traps.
Yeah.
So she sets you up.
I would recommend uh her in this situation.
And then he mentioned that uh she's she's thankful when we we talk about her.

Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
What else?
What else?
Hot pockets.
Shut up.
A lot of noise.
I got a speed report, Ashlyn Speed Report, speed report.
Yes, you win.
Well, unfortunately, uh sad news.
Ashlyn was in a car accident in her streetcar, and she had two concussions for her safety and health.
Ashlyn will not be participating in the final race of the season, but there is good news.
So all the no agenda slaves.
Ashland will still be in Georgia for the season ending race.
She'll be signing autographs and seeing the sights.
Go see her and some a maze amazing racing actions.
Uh there'll be action on the track Thursday, Friday at the 10-hour race on Saturday.
The track is one of the best in the world.
Go see her and all the action at Road Atlanta.
Check out her merch store, all her socials.
Uh P.S. She was going to finish in the top 20, which is a big deal in this series.
Very competitive.
Um, and our uh producer here tried to help uh with some sponsors.
Unfortunately, the line of work I'm in don't really need to advertise.
Anyway, uh we are a big fan of uh Ashlyn Speed, and we think the next season will be her season.
And if you're out there and you want to support her, get on the no agenda car.
We're on that car.
Very small sticker, but we're on the car.
We love Ashlyn.
She's gonna be a big name in racing one day.
Big name.
I think so.
Uh as long as she stays out of the street off the streets.
Yeah, um, she's she still is a woman driver.
We have to remember that.
Oh, whoa, there it is.
Uh I got a note from Cynthia, by the way.
We were talking about the uh the front license plate in uh in Texas.
That Tina got pulled over because she doesn't have a plate on the front, and we're at two places.
Yeah.
Yes, exactly.
Well, we got a note from Cynthia.
She's the tree chief strategy officer for Hometown Hero in Austin.
And she says, as a result, I manage all of our lobbying teams, state and federal.
So she's in the lobbying game.
She knows what's going on.
Florida does not require a front license plate.
When I moved here to Austin three years ago, I purchased a new car, and as you noted, some new cars did not have a good place for a front license plate.
The grill is beautiful.
And even the salesman at the dealership said he hoped I didn't ruin it with a license plate.
I asked one of our lobbyists, so this is this is deep good information.
If we could do a side project and get rid of the front license plates requirement.
Now that's a no agenda producer right there.
He explained that it has been tried many, many times, and every time it get insert gets introduced into the legislature, which meets every other year.
3M goes into action.
3M UC makes the paint that the license plates are coated with, and having only one plate would mean they sell Texas half the amount of paint.
And now you know why we have this silly two-plate requirement.
Well, how messed up is that.
That's a good one.
Yeah, I I know that's the way it works.
I know uh, you know, what we need to do is call them out on the floor.
Oh, you don't you want this license plate just to give three M some money, you shill.
That's what you need to hear.
Maybe I can find someone to do that.
So I get three clips that are very interesting.
And that these were supplied by Steve Jones.
Ah, the NPR morning edition clips.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, on a very just it's something that doesn't I didn't know about until I listened to these clips, and this is the Supreme Court uh cases that are being discussed, and one of them is quite fascinating.
Supreme Court justices will hear arguments today about the government's ability to regulate what is known as conversion therapy.
Ah, yes, a case that pits conservative Christian groups against major medical organizations and advocates for the LGBTQ community.
NPR legal affairs correspondent Nina Totenberg has this report.
Conversion therapy is generally defined as the treatment used to cure a person's attraction to the same sex.
In other words, to make a gay person straight, and to cure a person's desire to change their gender identity by making them comfortable with their gender at birth.
Every major medical organization, from the American Medical Association to the American Psychological Association, has repudiated the practice, finding that it doesn't work, and instead leads to deep depression and suicidal thoughts in minors.
As a result of these findings, half the states have banned the practice for those under the age of 18.
Jessica Ritter is one of many former conversion therapy patients who now opposes the treatment.
Raised in a devout Christian family, she says her first kiss was from another girl, and she was devastated when the relationship quickly ended, believing she would go to hell.
So devastated that she eagerly embraced conversion therapy.
You're broken, and then you're doing all the things that they're telling you to do, and it's not working.
It just broke me down.
It took her years to recover, she says.
Oh, yeah, this is a very big topic in the church circles right now.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm sure it is.
Something that's coming gone, but they they have an issue with it because uh the I mean the courts and the the whole society has an issue.
Well, that was one of the that's what it was called, and still is.
But but the problem they have now is that they're conver using conversion therapy as it were to convert kids into being trans in schools.
And that's okay.
Yeah, that's the problem.
Is it okay here, but it's not okay there?
I mean, you know, what are you doing here?
So uh so part it is three parts of this part two.
The Alliance Defending Freedom, however, cites other teens who it says have been saved by conversion therapy.
The conservative Christian legal group is challenging the ban on conversion therapy, contending that it violates the therapist's right to free speech in talk therapy.
The plaintiff in the case is Kaylee Chiles, a licensed therapist in Colorado.
I want to be able to operate genuinely and create therapeutic relationships that are not hindered by the values and position of our state, and that's what my clients want as well.
And currently I'm having to turn them away.
Representing Chiles lawyer James Campbell will tell the Supreme Court today that what Childs does is purely talk therapy, and thus that it's protected by the Constitution's free speech guarantee.
The state can determine who is qualified to be a licensed Counselor, it can determine that they have the right education, that they have uh sufficient experience.
But what the states can't do is come in and say you can have a conversation about a topic, but not if you're going to talk about it from this perspective.
It's just blatant viewpoint discrimination.
Colorado Attorney General Philip Weiser counters that the state law is in fact narrow.
It applies only to treatment of minors, and it allows anyone of any age to seek counseling from religious organizations without being subject to state licensing laws.
But he notes states are entitled to require licensed therapists and other medical professionals to abide by the established standard of medical care.
Oh, we're this is the conversion wars, the great conversion war.
Wait.
Title's too long.
The Great Conversion Wars of 2025.
You need that in there.
Yes.
Very important part.
All right.
Each side in this debate has to deal with an embarrassing fact.
Briefs filed by those endorsing conversion therapy rely heavily on the CAS review, commissioned by the British National Health Service.
Wow.
Which last year found insufficient evidence to justify transgender affirming care for minors.
But the CAS review reached a very different conclusion when it came to conversion therapy, condemning it as unsupported by science and not an improved treatment.
As for Colorado's position, its opponents note that major medical associations have not always been right.
Indeed, the American Psychiatric Association actually listed homosexuality as a mental disorder until 1973.
Attorney General Weiser replies that medical science evolves over time.
There were times when we didn't know that smoking cigarettes caused cancer.
But now that we know it does, it's wrong for a doctor to tell people to smoke cigarettes three packs a day and tell them, don't worry about the health effects.
That would be substandard care, just like conversion practices are substandard care.
A decision in the case is expected by summer.
Yeah.
No, this is a big one.
The whole thing is busy.
Yeah.
I have some uh some legal news, legal legal news, and this was a gigantic uh cover-up, really, by 60 minutes about the vaccine court.
Uh not a lot of people know about the vaccine court.
I think we've discussed it, but there is a I'm sorry?
Yeah.
I was gonna say, I watched this.
I didn't take any clips from it because I could have.
Glad you did.
Uh Clip Custodian did it, so I'll be honest about that.
Well, the point is is when I watched it, it seemed like they were trying to portray, give a message about the vaccines being great, but they kept that but the examples they used were people that were severely injured, obviously by vaccines.
Yes.
And I think the message was a little different as I listened to the clips.
I did not see the actual 60-minute piece.
Oh, you had to s oh well, you probably have disturbing very disturbing.
Yes.
Here's the intro.
If you've never before heard of the National Vaccine Court, you're hardly alone.
It sits inconspicuously a few hundred yards from the White House and stands as a model of effective public policy, balancing the societal good of widespread vaccination with rare individual harm.
Founded in the 1980s, the court has, with little fanfare, paid out billions of dollars to Americans who have claimed injury after getting a vaccine.
But it's rare today with vaccine skepticism rising and given voice in the highest ranks of government.
We wondered can this singular court block out the noise, withstand the political winds, and stay true to its mission.
So I'm gonna skip over the horrible child who uh right after got his six months got his his, you know, his dose of multiple vaccines and immediately couldn't talk and just horrible.
I'm gonna skip over that and go to attorney Renee Gentry.
Attorney Renee Gentry.
That's circumstantial evidence because it's not direct evidence.
Nay, I want to do it.
She's a leading vaccine injury litigator and director of the vaccine injury litigation clinic at George Washington University Law School in Washington, D.C. By the way, I think the lawyers are the problem here.
Perfect.
I represent both vaccine injured children and adults.
All of my clients are vaccinated.
Um most of them will start the conversation by saying I'm not anti-vax.
Why do you think they need to tell you right off the bat they're not anti-vax?
But there's a lot of public pressure when you say that you have a vaccine injury that people think you're some kind of a crazy person or you're out there.
And also because most people have never heard of a vaccine injury.
They're rare.
So rare that, while hard to quantify precisely, the chances of serious vaccine injury have been likened to lottery odds.
Lightning strikes.
Bear in mind, in school, global immunization has saved an estimated 154 million lives.
Six lives each minute.
What was that term?
Labriad.
I didn't hear it.
It was early.
Labriad, off to look it up.
Labriad, which is the chance of being struck by lightning.
Sure.
So here's the details on the vaccine court.
But when an injury does occur, families can come to vaccine court, seen in this informational video.
Part of the national vaccine injury compensation program, the court was established in response to a public health scare in the 1980s.
When families of injured children went to civil court and successfully sued the manufacturers of the DTP vaccine, an older version of DTAP, it caused all but one of those drug companies to pull out of the market, resulting in vaccine shortages.
Congress acted crafting a bipartisan bill that partially shielded drug manufacturers from liability, so they would continue to develop life safety.
Hold on, partially?
Partially?
What do you mean par since when is it?
I don't believe that to be true.
I don't think that's true either.
Congress acted crafting a bipartisan bill that partially shielded drug manufacturers from liability.
So they would continue to develop.
I think what they might be referring to is that if there if there is something egregious or they're sending vials of salt water or something.
I mean, there may be some out.
Is it so you could actually use that term?
But the reason they say it there, of course, is to uh soften it.
Yeah, because this report is slanted.
No kidding.
...crafting a bipartisan bill that partially shielded drug manufacturers from liability so they would continue to develop life-saving vaccines.
And at the same time, Congress acknowledged that vaccines can cause injury.
As Bill sponsor Senator Ted Kennedy described, when children are, quote, the victims of an appropriate and rational national policy, a compassionate government will assist them in their hour of need.
So the vaccine manufacturers are completely covered in this court because it is a no-fault court.
It was hailed as such a uh a unique accomplishment back in the day because you had these disparate groups.
You had the parents of vaccine-injured children together in the room with with the manufacturers.
And everybody agreed that this was the best case scenario.
Is that fair to the public?
They think they have an injury caused by a vaccine, but they can't sue the vaccine manufacturer directly.
You can still opt out of this program and sue a manufacturer.
You have to just start start in this program.
But it's a lower burden of proof in our program, so it's an easier thing for vaccine injured people to get compensation.
So it was kind of a drug companies are not only not being sued, they're not part of the proceedings.
Vaccine court is a no-fault court, meaning in cases like Jacob Thompson's negligence does not need to be proven, just that the vaccine, more likely than not, cause the injury.
This is a disgrace.
So what this lawyer is doing is she's saying, well, you know, you can either get some money or you can opt out of getting any money whatsoever, then go and sue them on your own good luck.
That's that's not okay.
And in fact, well, the question, of course, is I don't know if it's in this one where the money comes from.
Vaccine court is not your typical court.
There's no jury.
Cases are decided in front of one of a judges called special masters.
Since the program began in the late 80s, 12,000 Americans have received almost five billion dollars in payouts.
There are no financial windfalls for lawyers.
What?
Isn't 12,000 a big number?
I think it's a big number, yeah.
Well, how can it then how can you say rare, rare, rare throughout this report?
Uh who's the advertiser?
I don't know.
I mean, come on.
We all know where it's advertising.
Uh there are no financial windfalls for lawyers.
The court pays them by the hour.
Where does all this money come from?
A seventy-five cent tax imposed on recommended childhood vaccines goes into a trust fund.
You know, anyone who's yeah, you know, don't worry.
Just give us 75 cents for every single vaccine, and we'll take care of it.
We'll make it all go away.
Don't worry about it, and these lawyers, oh, there's no windfall.
Are you kidding me?
Uh sorry, but I think five to seven hundred dollars an hour is not bad depending on how long you're on the case.
It's still money.
Oh, there's no big windfall.
Come on.
Meaning you also don't get the top guys, the top injury guys.
333-3333, 444, 4444.
You don't get those guys who like you don't get suits and boots.
For vaccine injury compensation.
In July, the Thompsons received a judge.
Nice Nat Pop judgment of 2.1 million dollars based on the special master's ruling that it was more probable than not that Jacob's six-month vaccinations aggravated an underlying genetic mutation.
Jacob also received a lifetime annuity to cover his future care.
Is there any doubt that the vaccine caused Jacob's injury?
We can't ever prove scientific certainty on it.
Does that not mean though that some cases are being compensated when in fact might not support it?
And that's what Congress intended.
There's very clear indication that said it would be better to compensate somebody that wasn't injured than to miss somebody who was.
How do you feel about that?
I think that's fine.
While vaccines are critically important public health tools, they're not magic.
You know, you can you can have an allergic reaction to aspirin.
So it's a lot of different factors come into play to have a person be injured by a vaccine.
Their genetics, their immune system.
That's why the no fault part is critical.
The vaccine caused it, but there's no bad actor in this case.
No, there's no this is your lawyer speaking.
Oh, they kind of a lawyer.
This is like the lawyer in idiocracy.
Oh, yeah.
Well, they said you're guilty.
Here's the kicker.
The program is structured around a vaccine injury table, basically a conversion chart of vaccines and eligible injuries.
If your child, for instance, got a rubella vaccine and developed chronic arthritis within seven and forty-two days, you may be eligible for damages.
The most common compensation is for shoulder injuries suffered from a misplaced injection.
You can file for an injury not on the table.
Overall, half of all claims have been dismissed.
Today, vaccines on the table have jumped from the original six to sixteen, including the annual flu shot, though notably not COVID.
As for the eligible injuries, autism is not one of them.
That decision did not come easily, as retired special masters, Denise Fowell and George Hastings explained.
There's been a lot of talk lately about a possible link between vaccines and autism.
This has been litigated and decided in your court 15 years ago.
You know, I spent m many, many years of my life almost full time looking at that issue.
No, I don't have to play the rest of the clips, but of course, no, no, all the special masters said nope, nope, up to no all the science shows.
Now, science how come they left COVID off?
The COVID shot, one of the worst shots ever to the list.
Because it wasn't actually a vaccine, you see.
It was a Yes, but it's still uh it's still covered as an indemnity still indemnified.
Yes, I know.
I know.
It's it is a scam.
It's just a scam.
It's a sc's a very unfortunate scam.
Very unfortunate.
Okay.
Yes.
Okay.
We're getting we're almost done.
Let me just play these two.
I got two the firebug clips.
Let's do this.
Oh, yeah, this is great.
This is great.
This is for Newsom's Inferno.
Yeah, new news that's a good name.
We used it before.
Yes.
It's yes, we have.
But I won't I won't say anything about you, because I don't want any bad lessons.
No, because you'd be you mean you're a glorious person.
Federal and local officials announced a major breakthrough today in the investigation into January's Palisades fire in California.
After eight months of intensive work, authorities confirmed the arrest of a suspect in connection with the blaze.
A 29-year-old Jonathan Rindernecked for igniting a fire that ultimately burned down the Palisades earlier this year, killing 12 people, destroying more than 6,800 structures, both homes and businesses, and damaging over a thousand more buildings.
Rindernecht is accused of intentionally starting a fire along a hiking trail just after midnight on January 1st.
Officials say he had returned to Pacific Palisades after working an evening shift as an Uber driver on New Year's Eve.
Two of his passengers told law enforcement that he appeared agitated and angry that night.
After dropping off a passenger in Pacific Palisades, Renderneck parked his car and tried and failed to contact a former friend.
Prosecutors say he walked up a trail, recorded videos, and listened to a rap song featuring fire scenes before allegedly setting the fire.
Sensors detected the Lockman fire at 1212 a.m. on January 1st.
Officials say he fled the scene in his car, but later turned around after passing fire engines.
The defendant walked up the same trail from earlier that night to watch the fire and firefighters using his iPhone to take short videos of the scene.
Although firefighters initially extinguished the fire, strong wins on January 7th are believed to have caused it to reignite.
Officials say the allegations are supported by his phone data, false statements, and chat GPT-generated images depicting a burning city.
The allegations in the affidavit are supported by digital evidence, including the defendant's chat GPT prompt of a dystopian painting showing in part a burning forest and a crowd fleeing from it.
I find this interesting, this part, because it's not the image, it's his prompt.
That's the digital evidence is he was so hell bent on seeing this.
He's a firebug.
He's a firebug.
I wonder, was he on any um antidepressants or any pharma pharmacological?
Probably not.
Officials say Renderneck generated the images months before the fire broke out.
Saley said Renderneck lied about his location to the police, but cell phone data put him near the scene of the crime.
Investigators say he lived in the Palisades and was very familiar with the area.
He was arrested near his Florida home and is expected to appear in federal court in Orlando Wednesday.
If convicted, he faces a mandatory minimum of five years and up to 20 years in federal prison.
Wow.
Digital evidence is everywhere, people.
I don't understand why he only would get such a light sentence.
People died.
Yeah.
It's manslaughter.
Manslaughter, yeah.
No, you only go away for a long time if you...
Of course, the kicker is, which is not on NTD, but if you watch the right-wing news, the kicker is that everyone blamed it on climate change and the guy...

And uh I have one.
uh sent a bonus clip earlier this morning, which turned out to be a bonus ISO, also known as a BISO.
So I will uh play mine, and then I can't wait to hear yours, particularly because it includes that bonus ISO.
Here's the one I have for you.
Okay, cool.
High five.
Overdone.
Which is a real one.
It's not uh not generated by AI.
What do you have?
So it's like AI.
There was not AI.
Okay, well, here's a real one.
ISO Bluff.
From the ground soaked with our children's blood.
Okay.
Blue free.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Yeah, it's all right.
What's and this is the bonus one.
It's long.
It's a little long.
It's on the world.
It's a little long, but it's good.
Podcasting is hard, very hard.
Hard, hard, hard.
Oh, it's a little bit of a letdown.
Well, it's it was what I had.
So you you spent all morning putting that together, then sending.
I hit the last second.
I said maybe he won't go for the blood, the children's blood one, which I thought was a good one.
From the ground soaks with our children's blood.
I'm gonna take that one.
I'm not taking AI.
Who cares?
It's time now for John's tip of the day.
Great bus for you and me.
Just the chip with JCD.
And sometimes Adam.
Okay, this is a good one.
Of course.
Of course it's a good one.
I'm going to recommend a uh streaming product.
Streaming product.
That you can put on your I have I put it on my LG uh screen.
You could put any smart television will be able to take this and put it up there.
And you can also just use your computer.
But I have to say, I saw it promoted and I've seen advertised.
And I have to say it's it's got some it's it's not bad.
And it's something I think people should consider using because on it on the streaming service, there's just under a hundred local TV newscasts from you uh news junkies from all over the country, from Memphis to Seattle to San Francisco, they're all over the place.
Wow.
So if you're like a you live in some place and you still want to see what's going on at home, this is a place to go.
But they have over 300 channels of streaming TV, not to mention free streaming.
Yeah, it's Tubi.
T-U-B-I is actually good.
Buy or get bought by uh that by Pluto.
No, you're thinking uh no, you Pluto is still my go-to, man.
This is better than Pluto.
How does Tubi make money?
Uh I I think they they have there's some there's some somehow they make money.
I have no idea.
To be honest about it, looking at some of their offerings, like maybe they'd be having because they do play a lot of you know repurposed movies, the collection of movies is just as good as Amazon.
Do they have ads?
Do they have ads?
Old junk movies.
You know, if you want an old crap movies, they're all on Tubi.
So get your get your cheap wine from Costco and watch some old crap movies on Tubi.
You're taking us down the tubies, Divorak.
Check them all out at tip of the day.net, John's tip of the day.
Just the chip with J C D. And sometimes Adam.
Created by Dana Bernetti.
Well, that's perfect.
Just watch your old crappy tube movies for the next couple of days.
Yeah, you can watch the newscast too.

It's like the invention of fire.
This is kind of like the beginning of COVID again, to be honest.
This is really at that scale, and we should all be taking it very seriously.
Twenty years from now, how are we going to be looking back at this very moment?
That is a great question.
This has gotten shorter and shorter.
