1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,010 They deserve to lose. 2 00:00:02,220 --> 00:00:06,840 Adam curry, John C Devora. Day December 18 2022. This is your 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,450 award winning keep our nation media assassination episode 4 00:00:09,450 --> 00:00:10,890 1500 13. 5 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:12,840 This is no agenda. 6 00:00:13,710 --> 00:00:17,130 We got missing mania and broadcasting live from the heart 7 00:00:17,130 --> 00:00:19,920 of the Texas hill country here in FEMA Region number six in the 8 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,780 morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry 9 00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:25,260 Danna from Northern Silicon Valley. We're all congratulating 10 00:00:25,260 --> 00:00:30,990 Argentina and I have questions. I'm Josie to kill 11 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,790 you came to the right guy if you have questions 12 00:00:36,300 --> 00:00:39,840 about soccer expert have no agenda about football, football. 13 00:00:40,710 --> 00:00:46,290 The football? Yes, just since when did the French team become 14 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,470 all black? Except for the one guy the gold? 15 00:00:49,650 --> 00:00:53,610 I I think they've been pretty black for a while. 16 00:00:53,790 --> 00:00:56,850 I watch all these games, these club games. There's never a 17 00:00:56,850 --> 00:00:59,460 black guy. But now the whole national team is all black. 18 00:00:59,490 --> 00:01:04,230 No, no, you're wrong. The French have lots of black guys on their 19 00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:10,140 team always have. I mean, the French actually can't play any 20 00:01:10,170 --> 00:01:12,870 and you need to have your African if you're African, 21 00:01:12,870 --> 00:01:16,530 French. They're the ones where you can pledge friendship for 22 00:01:16,530 --> 00:01:20,790 God. For the for Africans. They're the ones that know how 23 00:01:20,790 --> 00:01:23,430 to play, but I think I think that's pretty much been that 24 00:01:23,430 --> 00:01:25,740 way. As far as I can remember. 25 00:01:25,980 --> 00:01:27,630 Okay, that's question number. Okay. 26 00:01:27,660 --> 00:01:28,710 You got a question number one. 27 00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:32,610 I got three questions. Okay. Question number two. Yeah. So 28 00:01:32,610 --> 00:01:38,370 this guy Messi. That's on Argentina. Yeah. They say this 29 00:01:38,370 --> 00:01:44,190 is his first World Cup. That he's won. Yes. And he's been 30 00:01:44,190 --> 00:01:47,400 playing for 17 years. And this is the first time he's won the 31 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,000 World Cup. And yet is the greatest player in the world. 32 00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:56,130 No, actually, he doesn't get the golden ball trophy. He gets the 33 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,150 he missed out because Bombay Bombay did better than he did. 34 00:02:00,150 --> 00:02:02,400 So he's not necessarily the best in the world. 35 00:02:03,780 --> 00:02:06,150 Well, that's what they said on the on the broadcast. Yeah. 36 00:02:06,180 --> 00:02:06,600 Well, what 37 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,130 was that NPR? 38 00:02:10,110 --> 00:02:17,820 Thirdly why don't they just cut the game short and just do 39 00:02:17,820 --> 00:02:18,540 shootouts? 40 00:02:21,780 --> 00:02:24,480 Come on, it was this was a good match. 41 00:02:24,690 --> 00:02:29,280 What's the point of a game it goes on for hours? And then it 42 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,770 still have to sit there and do shoot outs? Why don't you just 43 00:02:31,770 --> 00:02:34,530 do the shoot outs to begin with and give it up? Give the rest of 44 00:02:34,530 --> 00:02:39,240 it up to half the games in this World Cup tournament? Where 45 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,620 shoot outs at the end? 46 00:02:40,650 --> 00:02:43,350 That's how it goes when you have equal strength and it just comes 47 00:02:43,350 --> 00:02:46,710 down to why don't you make that decision early on to just to 48 00:02:46,710 --> 00:02:51,360 shoot out so this is why no one loves you in Argentina or France 49 00:02:51,660 --> 00:02:55,140 or anywhere in Europe or even even in Qatar because I asked 50 00:02:55,140 --> 00:02:58,320 the obvious no because you're you're you're mocking You're 51 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,990 mocking the sport that is bigger than any other sport in the 52 00:03:00,990 --> 00:03:10,350 world. Certainly your sumo Okay, there There you go. that'll 53 00:03:10,380 --> 00:03:15,330 that'll do it. Thank you. I had personally I thought France 54 00:03:15,330 --> 00:03:19,500 would win. It's interesting to see Argentina wins. How does 55 00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:22,470 this play on a political global scale? Any any thoughts? 56 00:03:25,740 --> 00:03:29,250 No, I was thinking about why would the I think it's just up 57 00:03:29,250 --> 00:03:33,510 to to cement the idea of white supremacy. 58 00:03:34,140 --> 00:03:39,360 Oh, how about that? Well, that works. Because pretty much all 59 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,210 the Argentinian guys are are white. 60 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,590 Yes, I think it was just uh, Oh, interesting. 61 00:03:46,590 --> 00:03:50,400 White supremacy and and overnight, they flew in Elon 62 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:55,950 Musk and Jared, together, hanging out in new Jared Kushner 63 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,400 are those the guy from Subway sandwiches? 64 00:04:00,390 --> 00:04:04,110 No, Elon and Jared were at the World Cup together. We tracked 65 00:04:04,110 --> 00:04:09,600 his jet on Mastodon Did you can't track Elon jet on Twitter 66 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,250 anymore? We track it on Mastodon 67 00:04:11,430 --> 00:04:16,080 So Elon has got nothing better to do than fly. I'd say that 68 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,790 first of all this is make this clear. Flying to Qatar is a pain 69 00:04:20,790 --> 00:04:22,140 in the ass. Well, if 70 00:04:22,140 --> 00:04:24,210 you have your own Gulfstream six it gets a little 71 00:04:24,210 --> 00:04:27,210 you know, it's still a pain. I'm talking about the time involved. 72 00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:32,130 Yes. Oh, yeah. And you went last night. Via London's got 73 00:04:32,130 --> 00:04:36,870 nothing better to do it despite the fact that is on the game was 74 00:04:36,870 --> 00:04:43,320 on in 4k. Yeah. On Fox. So you can watch it in high res and 75 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:49,500 high def super high def. And but I'd rather go I'm gonna go 76 00:04:49,500 --> 00:04:51,960 there. I'm gonna fly. Dammit. Oh my time. Yeah. 77 00:04:52,020 --> 00:04:57,540 What you must be confused with this illusion that Elon Musk is 78 00:04:57,540 --> 00:05:02,580 running anything. This is your confusion. And he's not I gotta 79 00:05:02,580 --> 00:05:06,090 tell you right now. I am convinced he doesn't do his own 80 00:05:06,090 --> 00:05:11,880 Twitter. That is it's too good. It's too sophisticated. I'm I'm 81 00:05:11,970 --> 00:05:16,950 he at best he has someone helping him. It's just not 82 00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:19,410 possible to be that good with your tools 83 00:05:19,410 --> 00:05:22,950 writers. He must have money he must have writers probably got 84 00:05:22,950 --> 00:05:25,800 writers for everything movie we've heard him speak I've got 85 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:26,400 that one clip 86 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,280 really speak anyway, we we lost a lot of good people in the past 87 00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:38,880 couple of hours, people just falling down dead. I don't know 88 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,910 if you heard it was really quite, quite horrific. 89 00:05:41,940 --> 00:05:45,240 Take a look at this big number right here. 1.5 billion that's 90 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,000 with a B billion people worldwide are expected to watch 91 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,650 the World Cup final on 92 00:05:49,650 --> 00:05:53,250 Sunday, hard to believe but it is the most popular sport in the 93 00:05:53,250 --> 00:05:55,920 world. That means a lot of anxious fans everywhere. There's 94 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,920 a lot of research out there that shows that rooting for your 95 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,340 favorite team can cause a lot of stress. Yeah, not just 96 00:06:02,370 --> 00:06:04,380 emotionally but also can cause some physical 97 00:06:04,470 --> 00:06:08,220 things. I mean, quite literally. And all kidding aside, it can be 98 00:06:08,220 --> 00:06:11,850 a stress test of sorts. So take a look at some of the medical or 99 00:06:11,850 --> 00:06:15,660 physiologic signs, as per the Cleveland Clinic, but we have 100 00:06:15,660 --> 00:06:18,150 documentation of this in the medical literature. 101 00:06:18,690 --> 00:06:21,390 What is well, thanks for the backup details as to 102 00:06:21,420 --> 00:06:24,930 that fight or flight response. Adrenaline is released, that 103 00:06:24,930 --> 00:06:29,640 forces our heart to beat faster, to push more oxygen throughout 104 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,420 our body to our brain to our muscles. What do we do sometimes 105 00:06:33,420 --> 00:06:36,060 when we're watching sporting events, while we can over 106 00:06:36,060 --> 00:06:39,990 indulge maybe eating hot dogs, fatty foods and alcohol, that's 107 00:06:39,990 --> 00:06:43,020 also a strain on our cardiovascular system. Who would 108 00:06:43,020 --> 00:06:46,230 be most at risk in this scenario, people with high blood 109 00:06:46,230 --> 00:06:49,950 pressure high cholesterol a body mass index of over 30 who are 110 00:06:49,950 --> 00:06:52,740 dealing with obesity, let's say we're using the condition of 111 00:06:52,740 --> 00:06:55,860 overweight and someone with diabetes or someone who smokes 112 00:06:56,070 --> 00:06:59,190 all at high risk for this stress test. As we say, 113 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:04,080 we lost people just guarantees stress test. Horrible. So 114 00:07:04,740 --> 00:07:08,400 I should mention that some years back there was a similar study 115 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,610 that this is really old news to be honest about it. And they 116 00:07:11,610 --> 00:07:15,120 determined that if you route it with if your wife for football 117 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,740 watchers, yeah, real American format, not football, American 118 00:07:19,740 --> 00:07:25,410 football, football, American football. So they said that the 119 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,550 elation that you feel if your team wins is fairly similar to 120 00:07:29,550 --> 00:07:33,180 what the players felt. If your team loses you have the same 121 00:07:33,180 --> 00:07:38,250 negative kind of entered the same form with you have you 122 00:07:38,250 --> 00:07:43,350 suffer as much. And that led me to becoming a fairweather 123 00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:48,420 friend. I have or fairweather fan. Same thing you don't want 124 00:07:48,420 --> 00:07:52,470 to get so I've always route for the top teams. It's good for 125 00:07:52,470 --> 00:07:57,420 your health. Yeah, exactly. Now, I have watched and just to say 126 00:07:57,420 --> 00:08:01,530 just a little insight to my personality. If I'm not really 127 00:08:01,530 --> 00:08:04,560 invested in any team, and I'm okay, I'm rooting for one team 128 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:10,080 or another let's say the Green Bay's playing against the Kansas 129 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,840 City Chiefs and one teams kicking the other ones as I'm 130 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,790 rooting for the team that's doing that and the other team 131 00:08:14,790 --> 00:08:17,100 starts making a comeback. It looks like they're gonna win 132 00:08:17,130 --> 00:08:23,070 your sides in the middle of the game. They deserve to lose. 133 00:08:25,380 --> 00:08:27,750 It's much better for you. And you know what, ladies and 134 00:08:27,750 --> 00:08:32,070 gentlemen, he is only 88 years old. So you don't want to take 135 00:08:32,070 --> 00:08:35,370 his advice. He's doing good so far. And I think it's pretty 136 00:08:35,370 --> 00:08:35,670 great 137 00:08:35,669 --> 00:08:39,659 had been condemned by my friends for being this way. You've 138 00:08:39,660 --> 00:08:42,570 told me this and I've always thought it was quite fabulous. 139 00:08:44,850 --> 00:08:50,310 You have to have no problem switching sides. Now then. I was 140 00:08:50,310 --> 00:08:53,370 happy to see that FIFA the International Football 141 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:59,310 Association. The Federation told Zelensky No, you cannot share 142 00:08:59,310 --> 00:09:04,140 your message of peace at the World Cup final. That's the 143 00:09:04,650 --> 00:09:08,790 first nerve. You know, I gotta play this for you. You know, 144 00:09:09,420 --> 00:09:13,650 goodness, this is so horrible. So I've always been a David 145 00:09:13,650 --> 00:09:19,890 Letterman fan you know back in the 80s late 80s 90s Everyone 146 00:09:19,890 --> 00:09:23,490 MTV we would not watch the tonight show of course not. Now 147 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,600 you watch it a Dave You know Dave was doing cool stuff. And 148 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,870 Dave you could kind of trust the Dave would always be a little 149 00:09:30,870 --> 00:09:38,640 bit against the man. But oh no, no. Dave went to Keith. And went 150 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,960 to that phony baloney subway station the one that's basically 151 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,340 a TV studio all lit No, all beautiful. And he interviews the 152 00:09:47,340 --> 00:09:50,520 Lenski And right on cue we get an error at 153 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:56,790 the Java via key. Do you see it other Java SE como Yo amo? Is 154 00:09:56,790 --> 00:10:06,780 that a switcheroo? Yes, I can hear the side Aaron what what 155 00:10:06,780 --> 00:10:11,370 should we do? Nothing. In any other circumstance, that 156 00:10:11,370 --> 00:10:16,050 wouldn't be reassuring, but here with you, I feel reassured what 157 00:10:16,050 --> 00:10:18,300 was that? What was the siren indicating? 158 00:10:19,980 --> 00:10:24,840 And then he goes on. Thanks, Dave. what a what a worse. 159 00:10:25,290 --> 00:10:31,050 He sold out to the man. I said, yeah, the man I'm years ago way 160 00:10:31,050 --> 00:10:37,560 it was. It was. I think it was before even before Trump was 161 00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:38,070 elected. 162 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,610 Yeah, he'd already flipped. Gone crazy became a 163 00:10:41,610 --> 00:10:47,910 super. Because Obama maybe or I know he's chummy with Clinton. 164 00:10:47,910 --> 00:10:50,340 But Obama invited him to the White House a couple of times, I 165 00:10:50,340 --> 00:10:50,850 believe. 166 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,640 I think it wasn't Obama, one of his first guests on that new 167 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,720 show that day. Yeah, I think so. But he's always he's always been 168 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,860 the I remember no, he was doing comedians and getting coffee and 169 00:11:01,860 --> 00:11:05,310 cars or whatever with with Seinfeld. He was raging against 170 00:11:05,310 --> 00:11:10,200 Trump. Like who cares what you think about that? Joke make a 171 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,700 joke, man. Don't don't. Anyway, I did check in with you 172 00:11:14,700 --> 00:11:19,650 yesterday to make sure you were okay after the 3.6 magnitude 173 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,160 earthquake pretty much under your butt. 174 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,480 Pretty close. It was walking distance definitely to the 175 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:28,110 epicenter. 176 00:11:28,470 --> 00:11:30,720 Now, did you go to the epicenter? Is there a whole 177 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,190 there is 178 00:11:32,250 --> 00:11:36,090 no there's nothing else or Ito Plaza for all I can 179 00:11:36,089 --> 00:11:38,759 tell. Now. 3.6 is not massive. But 180 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,520 that club when you're on top of it, you can feel it. Alright, so 181 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,680 what so what happened? What time they just lay here 182 00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:47,340 there was not much I managed to giant rock. And so the rock is 183 00:11:47,340 --> 00:11:51,390 like a big ship. And so the rock loses one. And so it makes a 184 00:11:51,390 --> 00:11:55,080 really lessens the effect but it was noticeable. Woke it was 330 185 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,580 in the morning, woke me up from a dead sleep. And I you know, 186 00:11:59,580 --> 00:12:01,920 woke me up just as it started. So I got to feel the whole thing 187 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,380 when I for a couple seconds. It wasn't that much. But it was 188 00:12:04,410 --> 00:12:09,540 rumble I was in the place was shaken. And I did I wait, it 189 00:12:09,540 --> 00:12:12,000 stopped. And then I said was if there's gonna be another thing? 190 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,440 Nope. Remember, I packed a bit. 191 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,680 Now, is this because of fracking in the area? 192 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,720 No, what is a million faults around here? This whole area is 193 00:12:22,170 --> 00:12:23,160 riddled with them. So 194 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,560 now you're on the fault line. Now, 195 00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:28,710 I don't know what that was. This is probably an offshoot from the 196 00:12:28,710 --> 00:12:30,120 Hayward Fault. I'm not sure what 197 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,580 I'm a little worried about this rock you're sitting on? Can this 198 00:12:32,580 --> 00:12:34,740 rock move? Can it roll 199 00:12:35,820 --> 00:12:40,770 a little bit further? Well, it's embedded into the earth deep 200 00:12:40,770 --> 00:12:44,040 underground. Okay. If you want to good, it's bad. Right? 201 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,250 Because most of the San Francisco is this way is San 202 00:12:47,250 --> 00:12:50,340 Francisco is actually when it has a quake the only the 203 00:12:50,340 --> 00:12:53,310 flatlands in the areas that have been made with the bill that or 204 00:12:53,310 --> 00:12:53,610 do you know 205 00:12:53,610 --> 00:12:57,240 where they need the power? I was reading the New York Times. I 206 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,140 know, outside that I was but I was reading the I know, there 207 00:13:01,140 --> 00:13:05,040 was this article about San Francisco downtown San 208 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,030 Francisco, how it's completely destroyed. Now that, you know 209 00:13:09,060 --> 00:13:12,120 tech companies are firing everybody closing their doors 210 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,610 going out of business. I'm sure it was slanted being the New 211 00:13:14,610 --> 00:13:19,140 York Times. But pretty much downtown is just gone. There's 212 00:13:19,140 --> 00:13:21,930 no activity. There's nothing going on anymore except for 213 00:13:22,110 --> 00:13:27,060 homelessness and drug users and and bullcrap. And that's that's 214 00:13:27,060 --> 00:13:29,640 human crap. Human. Yes. I'm sorry, human crap. That's where 215 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:34,890 they need to have the epicenter. Yeah, let's let's rebuild that 216 00:13:34,890 --> 00:13:39,600 thing. Yeah, I think I think it's time. If I was in general 217 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,150 planning, I'd say boys focus it over there. 218 00:13:43,980 --> 00:13:48,030 Well, I don't know what they get. San Francisco has his 219 00:13:48,030 --> 00:13:50,400 moments. Nowadays. It's just poorly managed. 220 00:13:51,270 --> 00:13:58,230 Look, I was in San Francisco in 2006 789. was horrible then. 221 00:13:59,460 --> 00:14:03,360 It's been poorly managed since before Governor Newsom ever 222 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,690 since the Democrats took it over permanently. It's like a 223 00:14:06,690 --> 00:14:11,640 permanent job for Democrats. They have mismanaged it just 224 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,280 what they do. They don't know how to do anything. said get 225 00:14:14,579 --> 00:14:17,159 elected and and get good dinners 226 00:14:17,730 --> 00:14:20,580 and know how to do that. Get good dinners. They have taste. 227 00:14:21,930 --> 00:14:24,660 Anyway, we'll have our own moment here of destruction. It's 228 00:14:24,660 --> 00:14:29,010 coming. I think Thursday. Where the arctic blast is coming back 229 00:14:29,010 --> 00:14:32,700 to Texas remember the one that booty Arctic Blau Yeah, the one 230 00:14:32,700 --> 00:14:34,080 that froze us to death 231 00:14:34,380 --> 00:14:38,130 two years ago hitting again? Yeah, yeah. arctic blast 232 00:14:38,130 --> 00:14:41,430 to freeze Texas next week. We'll bring fresh test to the power 233 00:14:41,430 --> 00:14:43,410 grid. Yeah. humming 234 00:14:44,700 --> 00:14:45,990 the same playbook. 235 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:51,810 And they're predicting 15 degrees. Which for Texans is 236 00:14:51,810 --> 00:14:52,320 cold. 237 00:14:53,340 --> 00:14:55,560 That's cold for anyone that's cold for 238 00:14:55,560 --> 00:15:00,000 us. Yeah, I think the cold blast is slated for just around Korea. 239 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,230 dismiss. And it could be one of the most extreme cold air masses 240 00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:07,890 to pour into the southern part of the country in years, which 241 00:15:07,890 --> 00:15:11,340 would be exactly two years. Now this is a computer model. So 242 00:15:11,370 --> 00:15:15,480 that means nothing. But But that means nothing. But if it's going 243 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,870 to happen by December 23, we shouldn't see freezing 244 00:15:18,870 --> 00:15:21,180 temperatures during the day is way it's already cold. It's 245 00:15:21,180 --> 00:15:25,770 already down to 30 at night here. Yikes. That's not too bad. 246 00:15:26,490 --> 00:15:30,180 It's not too bad. No, it's not too bad. Let's, let's just talk 247 00:15:30,180 --> 00:15:33,690 about Elon and Twitter for a minute. Because this is this is 248 00:15:33,900 --> 00:15:38,850 so fun to watch what's happening. Whereas I would say 249 00:15:38,850 --> 00:15:43,620 for decades and decades, the brunt of all jokes in America 250 00:15:44,370 --> 00:15:47,880 was certainly when it came to a class of professionals would 251 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,240 have to be lawyers. What do you call 10? Lawyers at the bottom 252 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,140 of the pool a good start? I think we can agree that 253 00:15:55,440 --> 00:16:00,390 journalists are have now become more hated than lawyers. It's 254 00:16:00,390 --> 00:16:03,330 getting there. It's really a thing. It's fantastic. 255 00:16:03,630 --> 00:16:05,580 But if you want to talk about Twitter, I should mention that 256 00:16:05,580 --> 00:16:07,920 right as we speak, the Twitter auctions going on 257 00:16:07,950 --> 00:16:10,710 now. But they have nothing good. I looked at it, they got some 258 00:16:11,310 --> 00:16:12,540 chairs, and 259 00:16:12,540 --> 00:16:16,800 you gotta look at it with with the no agenda perspective. Why 260 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:23,610 does an office in San Francisco have a 230 $1,000 Cappuccino 261 00:16:23,610 --> 00:16:31,770 machines? Plus another three or four single shot? Five to $6,000 262 00:16:31,770 --> 00:16:36,270 Cappuccino machines? And why does every office chair there is 263 00:16:36,270 --> 00:16:42,420 like 1000 $1,200 chair, they're selling them for 50. So why do 264 00:16:42,420 --> 00:16:47,160 they need all these screens? There's like these workstations, 265 00:16:47,190 --> 00:16:51,600 giant screens, a whiteboard, electronic whiteboard things 266 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,770 which cost $20,000. They have 10 of them. There's it's 267 00:16:55,800 --> 00:17:01,470 unbelievable what a just a flagrant abuse of funds, which 268 00:17:01,470 --> 00:17:04,590 went into that they just bit more venture capital money. We 269 00:17:04,590 --> 00:17:06,510 need more $1,000 chairs 270 00:17:06,540 --> 00:17:10,320 now, though, that's the reason why is it the time at Twitter to 271 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,040 get the best the best and the best employees had to compete 272 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,500 with Google and Apple. And so you have to have your perks. 273 00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:19,500 That's how sick Silicon Valley is. 274 00:17:19,589 --> 00:17:23,279 And to make it worse, you know, because if you don't Silicon 275 00:17:23,279 --> 00:17:25,979 Valley, all these places have their own kitchens and they have 276 00:17:25,979 --> 00:17:28,469 their own cafeterias and they have free food for all the 277 00:17:28,469 --> 00:17:33,809 employees, the kitchen equipment that they had, at the at the 278 00:17:33,809 --> 00:17:36,119 headquarters over in San Francisco, you never need to 279 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,869 leave this place in your lifetime. They had like, like 280 00:17:39,869 --> 00:17:43,739 most restaurants don't have the gear that these guys have. Well, 281 00:17:43,740 --> 00:17:45,210 did you put it in a bid on anything? 282 00:17:46,260 --> 00:17:51,480 No, no, because smart money is going to pick up the stuff at at 283 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:58,320 half the price. I can't afford it at a 25% of its value. I 284 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,080 can't afford it. That's how expensive this What would 285 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,560 you like to have if you could choose one item on the list? 286 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,490 I think the 36 inch stove would be nice. 287 00:18:10,350 --> 00:18:12,570 Gotcha. The 36 inch stove 288 00:18:12,570 --> 00:18:17,340 I have a 36 inch stove with six burners that I could use that 289 00:18:17,370 --> 00:18:22,740 that's also a couple of chairs. Maybe, but it's not that it's 290 00:18:22,740 --> 00:18:23,370 not that 291 00:18:23,730 --> 00:18:27,240 maybe we can hook something up for you. A couple of chairs. 292 00:18:28,590 --> 00:18:29,040 Okay 293 00:18:31,650 --> 00:18:33,840 well, you got to you got to oxygen go on as we're doing the 294 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:34,260 show. 295 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,670 I'm looking at it. Yeah, of course. Why nice saw it. You 296 00:18:38,670 --> 00:18:41,460 know, so everyone's talking about the cappuccino machines 297 00:18:41,460 --> 00:18:45,240 come on this bullshit. It's bull crap has been going on for a 298 00:18:45,450 --> 00:18:48,750 while. I'm not gonna argue that point is an absolute fact what 299 00:18:48,750 --> 00:18:52,920 you say and it actually kind of is squandering money on behalf 300 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:57,210 of these companies using venture capital funds and hoping to make 301 00:18:57,210 --> 00:19:00,210 it on the back end with a public offering. And they didn't make 302 00:19:00,210 --> 00:19:04,770 it on the back end was $44 billion from from from Elon. So 303 00:19:04,770 --> 00:19:07,710 it all paid out and then Elon gets to sell off this stuff. 304 00:19:07,710 --> 00:19:11,010 Sure. Not input into you know, the crates and shit. He likes to 305 00:19:11,010 --> 00:19:11,610 work with 306 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,420 crates, beanbags. beanbags. 307 00:19:15,750 --> 00:19:22,680 I have I have some Twitter BS clips from PBS. Okay, good. So, 308 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,060 Twitter B SPBs. 309 00:19:24,060 --> 00:19:27,300 Twitter is facing intense criticism after a series of 310 00:19:27,300 --> 00:19:31,800 moves by billionaire and owner Elon Musk. United Nations spoke 311 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,100 out against the company today, calling its new suspensions of 312 00:19:35,100 --> 00:19:39,150 some news reporters Twitter's at Twitter accounts, disturbing and 313 00:19:39,180 --> 00:19:45,240 setting a quote, dangerous precedent. Then Avas has more. 314 00:19:45,510 --> 00:19:48,060 That's right, Judy. Twitter suspended the accounts of at 315 00:19:48,060 --> 00:19:50,640 least eight journalists yesterday from the Washington 316 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,540 Post CNN, The New York Times and others with limited explanation. 317 00:19:54,810 --> 00:19:57,840 Each of those accounts had recently posted about Elon Musk 318 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:02,070 or his policy changes on content mod ration. Some posted links to 319 00:20:02,070 --> 00:20:05,520 an account Twitter banned this week that tracked Musk's private 320 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,970 jets through public data. The self described free speech 321 00:20:08,970 --> 00:20:12,690 absolutist is now facing backlash. Oh, 322 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:18,780 this is the best part is that journalists are like, oh my oh 323 00:20:18,780 --> 00:20:23,670 my. This is the end of civilization. He is banning 324 00:20:23,670 --> 00:20:25,830 journalists. Oh, 325 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,580 they can't believe this have been banned in the past. They 326 00:20:29,580 --> 00:20:31,680 were banned all the time on the old Twitter's Yeah, but 327 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:37,230 not not not the New York Times and Washington Post. And not 328 00:20:37,230 --> 00:20:39,390 Taylor Lorenz. Oh, no. 329 00:20:40,620 --> 00:20:44,340 Taylor Lorenz, just before going to this clip, too. She has a 330 00:20:44,340 --> 00:20:47,340 substack and she bitched in my wife. But you know, you know 331 00:20:47,340 --> 00:20:50,970 what, she only was off for like, two hours they put her back on. 332 00:20:51,390 --> 00:20:51,600 But 333 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,950 the thing was, she would she she does this really, she 334 00:20:55,980 --> 00:21:01,260 chickenshit type thing where she will tweet out.

It's like 339 00:21:16,590 --> 00:21:20,880 you deserve to be deleted for that. She does that everybody. I 340 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,420 knew I have a deadline and 11 deadline, you got to ask me to 341 00:21:24,420 --> 00:21:26,280 how we're going to print whatever we have. 342 00:21:28,740 --> 00:21:32,160 So I want to read from her column. All right. I've been on 343 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,030 Twitter since 2010. And I've run Twitter accounts. But actually 344 00:21:36,030 --> 00:21:40,020 she says and I have run Twitter account to be clear Oh, sorry 345 00:21:40,020 --> 00:21:43,800 about that ego. You know copy editing doesn't hurt a Twitter 346 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,510 account for major media brands including Verizon WordPress, the 347 00:21:48,510 --> 00:21:52,350 Daily Mail People Magazine, the hill and dozens more. Never once 348 00:21:52,350 --> 00:21:55,680 in my 13 year career in social media, if I received a single 349 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,860 Terms of Service or community guidelines violations, and I'm 350 00:21:58,860 --> 00:22:02,100 thinking wait a minute, is there some conflict of interest 351 00:22:02,100 --> 00:22:05,730 between this journalist and somebody running the accounts 352 00:22:05,730 --> 00:22:10,530 route for Verizon and People Magazine and dozens of more 353 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:19,680 operations so probably, I would think so. Anyway, so yeah. The 354 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:20,820 Okay, let's go to clip two. 355 00:22:21,510 --> 00:22:24,780 For more on all of this. I'm joined by tech journalist Kara 356 00:22:24,780 --> 00:22:26,580 Swisher, she is the host of the 357 00:22:27,300 --> 00:22:30,030 really, really really oh you have to do that to 358 00:22:30,030 --> 00:22:33,840 me Ah, Kara Swisher and pivot podcast has been covering Elon 359 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,990 Musk for more than two decades. Kara, welcome, as we just 360 00:22:36,990 --> 00:22:39,960 mentioned, few people have known uncovered Elon Musk as long as 361 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,130 you have. I'm just curious. 362 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,830 Did she also mentioned by any chance I'll play the last seven 363 00:22:43,830 --> 00:22:47,190 seconds that she is a paid advisor for a competing product 364 00:22:47,190 --> 00:22:49,500 that she mentioned that did you mentioned in the intro at all? 365 00:22:50,490 --> 00:22:53,520 This is you're watching my god she didn't 366 00:22:53,610 --> 00:22:56,730 unfold as you saw the suspensions unfold last night? 367 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,740 What are you thinking? What's going on here? 368 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,950 What are you thinking? Are you from? Oh, 369 00:23:01,980 --> 00:23:05,280 I again, I have to sit here for a reason. 370 00:23:05,310 --> 00:23:08,220 This is this is how my this is? My blood pressure goes up when 371 00:23:08,220 --> 00:23:09,030 you play this. 372 00:23:09,060 --> 00:23:15,840 I know you got to root for her. Yeah, so as you notice, this 373 00:23:15,870 --> 00:23:19,920 clip has been stopped. I'm introducing a new a new aspect 374 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,450 to our show. Oh, 375 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,190 we did not have a meeting about this. 376 00:23:24,210 --> 00:23:27,420 Do you want me to continue to playing these clips? Or do you 377 00:23:27,420 --> 00:23:31,380 want to stop them? Knowing that is one of the people that you 378 00:23:31,410 --> 00:23:34,890 hate listen to you know, I'm giving you the opportunity to 379 00:23:34,890 --> 00:23:36,060 stop the clip. 380 00:23:36,090 --> 00:23:38,940 Thank you. Is that is that the new item stop the clip. 381 00:23:39,390 --> 00:23:41,460 Stopped. Yes, it that's what we're gonna call it. 382 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,460 Stop the clip. Great. Okay. Yeah, I don't want those. Let's 383 00:23:44,460 --> 00:23:48,390 go on to something else. Okay. No, I need to hear it. 384 00:23:48,420 --> 00:23:51,510 Well, it's the latest. I mean, it's been going on for since he 385 00:23:51,510 --> 00:23:54,330 bought it. So one one crazy thing after the next and this is 386 00:23:54,330 --> 00:23:57,840 just the latest and things he said he wouldn't do that he's 387 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,180 doing such as creating a moderation Council and then 388 00:24:00,180 --> 00:24:03,120 making decisions on his own or, you know, tweeting 389 00:24:03,330 --> 00:24:06,840 misinformation when he said he wouldn't or release on Twitter 390 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,020 files that are probably incomplete. This is just the 391 00:24:10,020 --> 00:24:13,710 latest and he's just trying to create a sense of crisis and 392 00:24:13,710 --> 00:24:16,740 drama around the company, I guess so people will be talking 393 00:24:16,740 --> 00:24:17,040 about 394 00:24:17,550 --> 00:24:21,000 that part is true. I agree with Kara Swisher on this he's he's 395 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,330 creating the hype around the company to keep people talking 396 00:24:24,330 --> 00:24:26,160 about it. 100 100% 397 00:24:26,190 --> 00:24:30,330 He likes attention. I don't know if you've noticed. I'm like you. 398 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,990 This is the same man who reinstated banned accounts right 399 00:24:34,020 --> 00:24:37,350 arguing about free speech. Is any of this about young speech, 400 00:24:37,350 --> 00:24:37,860 do you think? 401 00:24:38,670 --> 00:24:42,030 No, it's about the whims of the richest man in the world and 402 00:24:42,030 --> 00:24:44,580 what he feels like doing on any given day and I think it's not 403 00:24:44,580 --> 00:24:47,670 much more complicated than that. He's bought it he bought it for 404 00:24:47,670 --> 00:24:50,250 too much money and he'll do you know, he bought and he'll broke 405 00:24:50,250 --> 00:24:52,470 break it if he wants to, and that seems to be what he's 406 00:24:52,470 --> 00:24:56,940 doing. There's no this is not someone who thinks deeply about 407 00:24:56,970 --> 00:24:59,550 big issues like free speech and things like that. It's a lot of 408 00:24:59,550 --> 00:25:03,600 parody. Did nonsense that he then uses as excuses to do what 409 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,960 he's doing. He's just mad at some just a jet guy who, who 410 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,290 published public information. He then took it out on journalists 411 00:25:10,290 --> 00:25:13,290 who wrote about that, that controversy. And that's where we 412 00:25:13,290 --> 00:25:16,350 are. It's really not that complex. It's someone who has a 413 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,050 who has who has who lacks impulse control. 414 00:25:19,350 --> 00:25:21,240 At the same time, we know that there are real world 415 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,060 consequences to what we've seen unfold on Twitter in the last 416 00:25:24,060 --> 00:25:26,850 several weeks, right. We know researchers from the Center for 417 00:25:26,850 --> 00:25:29,430 countering digital hate the anti Defamation League and others 418 00:25:29,430 --> 00:25:33,180 have tracked a dramatic surge in hate speech and anti semitism, 419 00:25:33,180 --> 00:25:36,630 anti black rhetoric on Twitter. How worried are you about those 420 00:25:36,630 --> 00:25:39,270 real world consequences? While all of this plays out? 421 00:25:39,300 --> 00:25:45,330 She said without evidence. What is that? What is that? You know? 422 00:25:45,690 --> 00:25:49,590 If anything, Elon Musk went right to work with, with anti 423 00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:54,390 semitism after Kanye booted Kanye off showed charts and 424 00:25:54,390 --> 00:25:57,540 graphs, which was very convincing. Luke, look at you 425 00:25:57,540 --> 00:26:02,970 hate us down. Okay, so boy, this is so riveting. I'm glad PBS has 426 00:26:02,970 --> 00:26:08,160 time to have Kara Swisher on for this in depth analysis. Can I 427 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,190 still start the clip? Or is it too late? Now? Do I have one 428 00:26:11,190 --> 00:26:14,640 more? There's one more. And and it stopped. You notice where it 429 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:21,090 stopped on a question? Yes, you can stop the clip. But I want to 430 00:26:21,090 --> 00:26:24,180 mention a couple of things. One, why do you bring somebody on if 431 00:26:24,180 --> 00:26:28,230 she's not going to give analysis but just spew what sounds like 432 00:26:28,230 --> 00:26:32,490 bigoted hate. There's no analysis here. It's just 433 00:26:32,490 --> 00:26:36,180 calling. It's calling someone names. This is not what PBS is 434 00:26:36,180 --> 00:26:40,260 turned into. And I will have clips later when we have 435 00:26:40,410 --> 00:26:46,410 Capehart and Brooks discussing things that there is no analysis 436 00:26:46,410 --> 00:26:47,760 whatsoever is just 437 00:26:47,790 --> 00:26:52,410 bigotry. I'm sorry. What she is doing is she is doing 438 00:26:52,410 --> 00:26:57,810 journalism, not bigotry, journalism. Big, big lism. She's 439 00:26:57,810 --> 00:27:01,860 doing journalism, because she's saying it as it is. This is the 440 00:27:01,860 --> 00:27:05,100 truth. This is what's happening. She's just reporting the facts. 441 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:09,300 Alright, let's wrap it. 442 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,940 I'm not that worried only because it's not a very big 443 00:27:11,940 --> 00:27:14,310 platform. That's the one of the big problems with Twitter, it's 444 00:27:14,310 --> 00:27:16,830 never been a very good business. And it's never been very big. It 445 00:27:16,830 --> 00:27:19,980 does hold the attention of the media and politicians, 446 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:24,210 unlike the company post dot news, which I'm advising for 447 00:27:24,210 --> 00:27:25,590 money. Celebrities have 448 00:27:25,590 --> 00:27:28,170 long since abandoned this because of the toxicity of it, 449 00:27:28,170 --> 00:27:31,140 and it doesn't really help them that much. And so I think I 450 00:27:31,140 --> 00:27:33,750 think that's where the problem is, is it can set the tone for 451 00:27:33,750 --> 00:27:37,470 discussions. But in general, if you if I walked outside here in 452 00:27:37,470 --> 00:27:40,620 San Francisco right now, very few people would know what this 453 00:27:40,620 --> 00:27:41,280 guy was up to. 454 00:27:42,180 --> 00:27:45,510 Most people outside in San Francisco are drug addicts, 455 00:27:46,230 --> 00:27:50,250 homeless who have no internet or knows. So yeah, I walked 456 00:27:50,250 --> 00:27:55,650 outside when she started in San Francisco right now, you know 457 00:27:55,650 --> 00:27:57,030 what the hell was going on? 458 00:27:57,060 --> 00:27:58,830 They would probably beat her to a pole pin, 459 00:27:59,310 --> 00:28:02,790 except in broad terms is that he? He's uh, you know, he's the 460 00:28:02,790 --> 00:28:06,480 PT Barnum Barnum of the Internet age. And so I'm worried about 461 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,340 it. And I think it's always dangerous when things are 462 00:28:08,340 --> 00:28:10,980 allowed to be toxic on a platform, but at the same time, 463 00:28:10,980 --> 00:28:12,840 it's not a very big platform. 464 00:28:12,870 --> 00:28:16,110 Yeah. So I'm always worried. You know, as the grandmother of 465 00:28:16,140 --> 00:28:19,140 Silicon Valley, whenever there's something toxic on a platform, 466 00:28:19,170 --> 00:28:21,180 I'm a little concerned. At the same 467 00:28:21,180 --> 00:28:25,110 time journalists do use it, many rely on it, it can be a powerful 468 00:28:25,110 --> 00:28:28,410 message for journalism and powerful tool. We saw the VP of 469 00:28:28,410 --> 00:28:31,200 the European Commissioner respond saying the suspensions. 470 00:28:31,350 --> 00:28:34,680 She thought violated the EU's digital services and Media 471 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,490 Freedom Act. She tweeted there are red lines and sanctions soon 472 00:28:38,490 --> 00:28:41,790 there. What about here in the US? Do you think Twitter needs 473 00:28:41,790 --> 00:28:43,080 to be regulated? No, 474 00:28:43,110 --> 00:28:45,360 I don't. And I don't I think that's going to be a real 475 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,750 problem here is because of First Amendment issues. They really 476 00:28:48,810 --> 00:28:51,210 Twitter can do whatever it wants, unfortunately, and it 477 00:28:51,210 --> 00:28:54,090 happens to be owned by someone who's somebody responsible about 478 00:28:54,090 --> 00:28:56,640 running it or not somewhat very responsible about running it 479 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:57,630 very. 480 00:29:00,030 --> 00:29:02,640 So she did not disclose that she's a paid advisor the whole 481 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:09,000 pivot show. Her boyfriend Scott Galloway is an investor in post 482 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,460 dot news. And what's interesting, you know, I follow 483 00:29:11,460 --> 00:29:16,710 all the journos on Mastodon and first of all, every single one 484 00:29:16,710 --> 00:29:21,240 of them, they tweet and and to the same thing, so they whatever 485 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,420 they post on Mastodon, they're still if they are allowed to if 486 00:29:24,420 --> 00:29:29,490 they're having an account, like Jeff Jarvis, Jeff Jarvis. Hi, I 487 00:29:29,490 --> 00:29:32,460 show all the journalists how to do the mastodon because I'm Jeff 488 00:29:32,460 --> 00:29:37,650 Jarvis. I know how to do it. And he is such a dick. But he also 489 00:29:37,740 --> 00:29:41,370 crossed Oh, I just got he's he's my new hate. He's my hate watch. 490 00:29:43,170 --> 00:29:46,380 And he posts everything on Twitter and Mastodon acting like 491 00:29:46,380 --> 00:29:50,700 big man on campus. He's got he's got the message on one on one 492 00:29:50,700 --> 00:29:53,310 for journalists. Yes, I put that together so I can show people 493 00:29:53,310 --> 00:29:56,730 how to do it. And so the journalists come in. They always 494 00:29:56,730 --> 00:29:59,640 say, well, we've got to change this Macedon is not working the 495 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,970 way we want it? And of course they get exactly what they 496 00:30:02,970 --> 00:30:06,300 deserve which is no Shut up, go go build your own do whatever we 497 00:30:06,300 --> 00:30:11,160 don't care. My favorite, my favorite mean, are you 498 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,070 telling me that he wants them to switch stuff when this is kind 499 00:30:14,070 --> 00:30:16,110 of one of those open source projects that you can do 500 00:30:16,110 --> 00:30:18,990 whatever you want with and you can make it yours exactly the 501 00:30:18,990 --> 00:30:21,060 way you want especially 502 00:30:21,150 --> 00:30:26,490 for black people. Because black people can't live as their full 503 00:30:26,490 --> 00:30:29,910 selves because there's no quote tweet I think we went over this 504 00:30:29,910 --> 00:30:33,330 on a previous episode because there's no way to quote and 505 00:30:33,330 --> 00:30:37,320 tweet that's the call response that black Americans need to 506 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:43,230 have without that Macedon is racist. Exactly. But the best 507 00:30:43,230 --> 00:30:49,800 thing that happened was this was this is a media ight you know 508 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,160 media I think I think they're more right leaning than left 509 00:30:53,160 --> 00:31:01,590 probably and so there's how Elon Musk starts blocking or banning 510 00:31:01,620 --> 00:31:05,820 any link to Mastodon and there's you know, forever there's been a 511 00:31:06,090 --> 00:31:12,690 join mastodon.com address which is you know, explains how you 512 00:31:12,690 --> 00:31:16,830 can join and sign up for for instance and account on instant 513 00:31:16,830 --> 00:31:22,950 somewhere. This num not miss reads it. He doesn't read join 514 00:31:22,950 --> 00:31:28,050 Mastodon No, he reads John Mastodon and, and reports the 515 00:31:28,050 --> 00:31:32,460 following. Before the latest wave of suspensions, Twitter had 516 00:31:32,460 --> 00:31:35,940 already suspended the account posting the location of Musk's 517 00:31:35,970 --> 00:31:41,430 jet. Then the platform removed John Mastodon, the founder of a 518 00:31:41,430 --> 00:31:45,780 competing social media company named after himself, just for 519 00:31:45,780 --> 00:31:50,220 posting a link to the jet trackers Mastodon account. This 520 00:31:50,250 --> 00:31:55,080 idiot doesn't even know where Mastodon comes from. Miss reads 521 00:31:55,080 --> 00:32:00,600 join mastodon.com Thinking that the guy who created mastodons 522 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,070 name was John mastodon. 523 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,200 And he named Mastodon, Roseanne Roseanna. Danna bit 524 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,920 completely. Of course, they immediately know that's been 525 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,440 taken down, but I have a screenshot of it in the show 526 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:14,550 notes is crazy. 527 00:32:14,550 --> 00:32:17,880 Oh, send me a send me this. Yeah. It goes to the newsletter. 528 00:32:17,970 --> 00:32:19,020 Go it has to. 529 00:32:20,100 --> 00:32:25,140 Let's see what else. Oh, yeah, this was interesting. Barry 530 00:32:25,140 --> 00:32:32,520 Weiss has written about the Twitter reporting. And there's a 531 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,640 couple of nuggets in this substack article that she wrote. 532 00:32:37,260 --> 00:32:39,660 And here's here's the journalists that she's been 533 00:32:39,660 --> 00:32:43,890 working with Matt Taibbi investigative reporters 534 00:32:43,890 --> 00:32:46,470 connected to the free press. This is the thing we're trying 535 00:32:46,470 --> 00:32:48,990 to figure out what it is including Abigail Schreier, 536 00:32:49,230 --> 00:32:53,400 Michael Shellenberger Leighton Woodhouse, plus Free Press 537 00:32:53,430 --> 00:32:57,210 reporters Susie Weiss, which I think is Barry's wife, Peter 538 00:32:57,210 --> 00:33:00,930 Zavod, Nick, Olivia Ryan gold, Isaac Graf steam. I have not 539 00:33:00,930 --> 00:33:05,520 heard of any of these people. So they camped out in a windowless 540 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,520 fluorescent lit room at Twitter headquarters began looking 541 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,500 through the company's vast archive of internal 542 00:33:10,500 --> 00:33:13,620 communications. But what's interesting is she says that 543 00:33:14,010 --> 00:33:19,830 they had to work through lawyers using E discovery tools, which 544 00:33:19,830 --> 00:33:22,560 he describes as software designed for lawyers to help 545 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:27,570 them search huge amounts of information. If you're working 546 00:33:27,570 --> 00:33:31,920 through lawyers, are the lawyers using the eDiscovery tools and 547 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:38,880 giving you the results? I'm, I'm troubled by the by the writing 548 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,960 the actual sentence, we had to work through lawyers using E 549 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:47,700 discovery tools. Sounds to me like they are being handed 550 00:33:47,700 --> 00:33:49,890 things that has come 551 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,530 out exactly what it sounds like. That's the way that sentence is 552 00:33:52,530 --> 00:33:56,520 structured this which DNA we had to work through lawyers that you 553 00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:01,590 can stop, full stop right there. Whatever tools they were using, 554 00:34:01,590 --> 00:34:04,590 what difference does it make that kind of doesn't mean 555 00:34:04,590 --> 00:34:08,190 anything. But if you're working through lawyers, and lawyers are 556 00:34:08,190 --> 00:34:12,330 handing you stuff, which means it's contaminated. Yes, 557 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:17,400 that's the way I read it. Yeah. So this will just continue and 558 00:34:18,060 --> 00:34:26,070 and she you know, I think Kara Swisher is correct. And I've 559 00:34:26,070 --> 00:34:29,220 always said to Elon, why say differently? She said Elon Musk 560 00:34:29,220 --> 00:34:34,470 is the PT Barnum of tech. I've always said he is more like the 561 00:34:34,500 --> 00:34:39,960 Kim Kardashian of tech. He's a great endorser. And you know, He 562 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,750 clearly doesn't doesn't work at any of these companies. Really. 563 00:34:43,860 --> 00:34:48,600 I wouldn't have time to jaunt down to off to Qatar to go hard 564 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,450 just to watch a one loan game off 565 00:34:51,450 --> 00:34:59,970 to Doha. Everybody has one does. So as one does. I'm off to Doha. 566 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,560 What can I say? Yeah, so it's 567 00:35:04,950 --> 00:35:08,940 stopped by your doulos shopper, stopover in Dubai, pick up some 568 00:35:09,270 --> 00:35:12,930 rugs and do some duty free shopping and be on your way 569 00:35:12,930 --> 00:35:15,000 back. Let's see. Let's see where he is. Hold on. Let me go look 570 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:20,220 up Elon jet. I always love how every every journalist that 571 00:35:20,220 --> 00:35:24,150 complains about, you know Elon kicking them off Twitter. It's 572 00:35:24,150 --> 00:35:30,870 publicly accessible information. Yeah, there's a lot of publicly 573 00:35:30,900 --> 00:35:34,590 available in here. Go Elon, Elon Musk jet. Let me see. Do we have 574 00:35:34,590 --> 00:35:42,420 a new update? This is three hours ago. So his trip to Doha? 575 00:35:43,860 --> 00:35:50,040 15 hours, 30 minutes total. II took up about seven, almost 8000 576 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:58,050 gallons of fuel. So probably about 85 tons of co2 emissions. 577 00:35:58,050 --> 00:36:01,800 I love how they're doing that to him now. Oh, he's killing the 578 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,310 climate. I don't think he's ever cared about the climate. Right. 579 00:36:05,310 --> 00:36:09,510 He's still there. He hasn't come back. Yeah, there was a party if 580 00:36:09,510 --> 00:36:14,250 they went via London. So he flew to London first then from London 581 00:36:14,250 --> 00:36:17,460 there must have refueled there and then went to Doha. Yeah, 582 00:36:17,460 --> 00:36:20,220 that would be the route. Yeah. So he's party. Yes. Party. 583 00:36:20,790 --> 00:36:24,270 Party with Argentina. Yeah, of course. Hello. I found he's 584 00:36:24,270 --> 00:36:27,090 there. And they invited him over and they're all with him. And 585 00:36:27,090 --> 00:36:31,020 he's drinking with them and smoking cigars. Probably. And 586 00:36:31,020 --> 00:36:36,000 they'd get these Bobby doused. doused. Yeah. Good for him. 587 00:36:36,510 --> 00:36:39,870 I agree. Hey, Ilan, come on over, man. Oh, 588 00:36:41,010 --> 00:36:45,210 you can speak Spanish. You know, he doesn't know what's going on. 589 00:36:45,240 --> 00:36:45,750 Yeah, fine. 590 00:36:46,410 --> 00:36:50,970 Excellent. All right. Now, where do we go from here? And we've 591 00:36:50,970 --> 00:36:52,980 already done the most the biggest news, the only news that 592 00:36:52,980 --> 00:36:54,390 anybody seems to care about. 593 00:36:55,740 --> 00:37:00,000 Well, there was an interesting. This is also all awfully long. 594 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:06,330 But there's a couple of gems in here. But PBS NewsHour, Judy, 595 00:37:06,330 --> 00:37:09,480 one of her last jobs. I was yes. And I think this is a Philly, 596 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,230 they ran this yesterday. Or I'm sorry. They ran this on Friday. 597 00:37:13,230 --> 00:37:16,770 And I think it was like Christmas vacation. And they 598 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:21,030 this is just a filler. She's dead already. Yeah, everyone's 599 00:37:21,030 --> 00:37:25,290 gone. Nobody except us. You and I the only people that work 600 00:37:25,290 --> 00:37:26,220 during these moments and 601 00:37:26,220 --> 00:37:30,510 some trolls. Can the troll you and me and some trolls. That's 602 00:37:30,510 --> 00:37:33,300 all that's the only people working. Yeah. So she 603 00:37:33,300 --> 00:37:38,160 did an interview with the CIA director Bill Burns. Oh, okay. 604 00:37:38,190 --> 00:37:43,230 Now Burns is an interesting guy. And the first clip is, uh, is 605 00:37:43,230 --> 00:37:46,920 her introducing him. So we and I kept it in there because it was 606 00:37:46,950 --> 00:37:53,730 it's good background. This guy's no slouch. When he speaks he's a 607 00:37:53,730 --> 00:37:57,030 little like, some of those guys in the past rules he I think 608 00:37:57,030 --> 00:38:00,360 would be one of them. And some some other guys that were very 609 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,700 soft spoken. Never gives away the store does doesn't seem to 610 00:38:05,700 --> 00:38:09,600 have a big ego that needs to be stroked, or he doesn't brag 611 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:14,040 about anything like like Brennan was the probably the worst CIA 612 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:15,150 director they've ever had 613 00:38:15,150 --> 00:38:16,740 when it came to bragging for sure. 614 00:38:17,250 --> 00:38:20,910 And so it's hard to get. So that's why I had to get so many 615 00:38:20,910 --> 00:38:23,790 clips because you gotta like dig into each one. There's only 616 00:38:23,790 --> 00:38:28,980 there's two out of the eight that have something interesting 617 00:38:28,980 --> 00:38:31,890 in them that is like, oh, that could mean something to us. But 618 00:38:31,890 --> 00:38:34,860 let's start with billboards interview PBS. 619 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,550 Bill Burns has been a career diplomat, a pillar of the State 620 00:38:38,550 --> 00:38:42,630 Department for decades, rising to the number two job deputy 621 00:38:42,630 --> 00:38:46,230 secretary in President Obama's second term. He's been 622 00:38:46,230 --> 00:38:49,650 ambassador to Russia, and was instrumental in setting up the 623 00:38:49,650 --> 00:38:53,970 Iran nuclear deal. But for much of the past two years, he's worn 624 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,260 a different hat for President Biden, Director of the CIA. It 625 00:38:58,260 --> 00:39:01,590 was a change of venue and a scene for him, but not of the 626 00:39:01,590 --> 00:39:05,550 mission as he sees it. And with a world full of direct and 627 00:39:05,580 --> 00:39:10,170 urgent challenges. These are not quiet days at the CIA. I met 628 00:39:10,170 --> 00:39:13,800 director burns this morning at the sprawling CIA headquarters 629 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,680 in Northern Virginia for a rare interview 630 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,580 home game all right, should you be went to see it? She went to 631 00:39:20,580 --> 00:39:22,050 see the mountain went to Muhammad. 632 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,520 She made a big mistake and there if you listen carefully, what 633 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,090 was changed she says there's going to the CIA as the head is 634 00:39:30,090 --> 00:39:31,260 a change of venue. 635 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:33,720 Say again, 636 00:39:34,260 --> 00:39:38,730 she said it was a change of venue. Oh, as if he wasn't a 637 00:39:38,730 --> 00:39:39,870 spook all along. 638 00:39:41,820 --> 00:39:44,190 Okay, good point. I'll take it 639 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,960 all right, let's see what he now you got to go. Okay, here's 640 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:49,500 number two. 641 00:39:49,950 --> 00:39:53,640 Is the generation represented by you or sorry? What was 642 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,650 that? Wow, I don't know. He's, 643 00:39:55,980 --> 00:39:58,350 he eats master of disguise. 644 00:39:59,370 --> 00:40:03,630 Bill Burns. Just about Ukraine. We try to get a little 645 00:40:03,630 --> 00:40:07,080 information on this. I think this is a clip could easily be 646 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:08,970 skipped. But we're gonna play all this busy. 647 00:40:09,060 --> 00:40:10,680 Let's do it. No one else is working. 648 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,590 Talk about Ukraine. I mean, right now, Vladimir Putin is 649 00:40:13,650 --> 00:40:16,860 talking about Ukraine, how you guys went in there and 2014 and 650 00:40:16,860 --> 00:40:18,570 screwed the whole country over, that'd be great. 651 00:40:18,810 --> 00:40:23,040 Giving every indication he's not backing down. He's going to 652 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:28,020 stick with this war of attrition as long as he possibly can, that 653 00:40:28,020 --> 00:40:30,390 nothing will deter him. Is he 654 00:40:30,390 --> 00:40:33,270 right? No, I think he's wrong. I think I'm sorry. 655 00:40:33,300 --> 00:40:34,680 What is this clanging? 656 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,990 I hear in the background is a bunch of noise in the 657 00:40:36,990 --> 00:40:40,890 background. What is going on with that? And it's constant 658 00:40:40,890 --> 00:40:42,270 throughout the entire interview? 659 00:40:42,300 --> 00:40:44,820 Are they sharpening their knives? Or is it the clinking 660 00:40:45,090 --> 00:40:45,780 idea and 661 00:40:45,780 --> 00:40:48,030 they don't show it they just say it looks like they're in a 662 00:40:48,030 --> 00:40:51,180 secluded room. But no, Skiff 663 00:40:53,310 --> 00:40:54,930 with the champagne glasses, he's 664 00:40:54,930 --> 00:40:59,190 wrong in that bed just as he was wrong profoundly wrong in the 665 00:40:59,190 --> 00:41:02,700 bed that he made on February 24, when he launched this war. 666 00:41:03,210 --> 00:41:07,530 Tactically, I think what we see at least at CIA is a reduced 667 00:41:07,530 --> 00:41:11,190 tempo and fighting between the two militaries as winner sets 668 00:41:11,190 --> 00:41:14,730 in. The Russian military has badly battered right now the 669 00:41:14,730 --> 00:41:18,570 Ukrainian military is determined to keep up the pressure, build 670 00:41:18,570 --> 00:41:21,720 on their battlefield successes that the last several months, 671 00:41:21,900 --> 00:41:25,620 but they also need time to refit and resupply. But there's 672 00:41:25,620 --> 00:41:30,030 nothing at all reduced about the tempo of Putin's increasingly 673 00:41:30,030 --> 00:41:33,390 brutal attacks against Ukrainian civilians, and Ukrainian 674 00:41:33,390 --> 00:41:34,650 civilian infrastructure. 675 00:41:35,009 --> 00:41:39,839 But the cost to the United States weaponry ammunition, 676 00:41:39,839 --> 00:41:43,859 Europeans and what they're sacrificing for this war to go 677 00:41:43,859 --> 00:41:47,639 on. You're not concerned that he could outlast all that. 678 00:41:47,910 --> 00:41:51,660 I don't underestimate for a moment. The burdens the 679 00:41:51,660 --> 00:41:54,960 challenges that this war poses for Ukrainians first and 680 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,690 foremost, but for all of us who support Ukraine, but 681 00:41:57,690 --> 00:42:01,620 strategically, I think, in many ways, you know, Putin's war has 682 00:42:01,650 --> 00:42:05,370 has less far been a failure for Russia, the Russian military has 683 00:42:05,370 --> 00:42:09,720 performed poorly and suffer huge losses. The Russian economy has 684 00:42:09,720 --> 00:42:13,500 suffered long term damage. Most of the progress that the Russian 685 00:42:13,500 --> 00:42:16,440 middle class has made over the last 30 years is being 686 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,830 destroyed. I think Russia's reputation has been badly 687 00:42:19,830 --> 00:42:23,670 undermined and its weaknesses have been exposed. The Russian 688 00:42:23,670 --> 00:42:27,510 population seems increasingly uneasy about the costs of war as 689 00:42:27,510 --> 00:42:30,960 well the fact that Putin when he launched at the end of September 690 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,340 a partial mobilization, the reality was that more Russians 691 00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:38,370 that military age fled the country that he was able to 692 00:42:38,370 --> 00:42:41,280 round up and send to the friends so he's got a lot of challenges 693 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:41,730 as well. 694 00:42:42,210 --> 00:42:47,910 So this is this is the new the new new meme is a Daily Beast 695 00:42:47,910 --> 00:42:51,360 wrote this, Russia can finally see that Putin's days are 696 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,810 numbered. This is this is what they're trying now, all people 697 00:42:54,810 --> 00:42:57,450 at home don't like him. They don't like him. 698 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,480 Well, we can see where the Daily Beast is getting their talking 699 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:03,780 points. 700 00:43:03,810 --> 00:43:07,590 What is in the dailies in The Daily Beast. Isn't that 701 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:12,510 Shapiro's outfit? No, no, no, that's Daily Caller. No, that's 702 00:43:12,540 --> 00:43:15,570 no Daily Caller is Tucker Carlson's outfit. 703 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,210 That's the daily wire. 704 00:43:18,750 --> 00:43:23,640 The daily wire is okay. Daily Beast is tard. Got it? You write 705 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:24,480 daily wire? 706 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,850 Daily really be sorry, Daily Beast is a left wing operation. 707 00:43:29,940 --> 00:43:33,270 Right. Well, they got CIA then. Bingo. Yeah. So 708 00:43:33,270 --> 00:43:35,880 the CIA's given them the talking points, and they were producing 709 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:36,720 nice copy. 710 00:43:37,170 --> 00:43:41,010 A lot of copy actually end game. It has a little like red stamp 711 00:43:41,010 --> 00:43:41,760 and game. 712 00:43:43,350 --> 00:43:49,740 Read. And I have an idea. Okay. That part's free. 713 00:43:51,330 --> 00:43:54,000 Do you see any real threat to his position? 714 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,390 Well, I think there's an unease across the Russian population. 715 00:43:57,390 --> 00:44:00,840 Right now. There's an unease from some more hawkish critics 716 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:04,950 who are, you know, who see the conduct of the war as being 717 00:44:04,950 --> 00:44:08,490 flawed? And then you have the unease I mentioned before, you 718 00:44:08,490 --> 00:44:11,490 know, lots of Russians and military age young Russian men 719 00:44:11,490 --> 00:44:15,000 fleeing the country as well. So I'm not trying to suggest that 720 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,270 that poses an immediate grip, you know, threat to his grip on 721 00:44:18,270 --> 00:44:22,110 power. He's created a very secure and repressive 722 00:44:22,110 --> 00:44:25,230 authoritarian regime in his eyes. 723 00:44:25,860 --> 00:44:27,870 Oh, yeah. Here's another article I caught. 724 00:44:28,890 --> 00:44:31,920 before. Before I go to that, I want you to look at what he said 725 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:39,300 at the end there. He said, and he's, he says that Putin thinks 726 00:44:40,500 --> 00:44:43,920 that he's created a repressive and authoritarian regime regime, 727 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,700 he's proud of it. That's bullcrap. Putin doesn't think 728 00:44:47,700 --> 00:44:51,180 he's created an authoritarian repressive regime is reported it 729 00:44:51,180 --> 00:44:54,330 might be authoritarian and repressive. But that's not Putin 730 00:44:54,330 --> 00:44:56,070 is thinking no think 731 00:44:56,100 --> 00:45:00,000 well, but perhaps the director of CIA is familiar with who 732 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,050 thinking, you know, these guys are good. 733 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,420 These guys are good. Yeah, they're great. They mind 734 00:45:06,420 --> 00:45:06,990 readers. 735 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:13,500 There's, there's this other kind of sub thread this running that 736 00:45:13,500 --> 00:45:18,870 really this all of this started with Putin homophobia. That's, 737 00:45:19,110 --> 00:45:22,380 that's really where it all started. Putin regards 738 00:45:22,380 --> 00:45:26,100 homophobia as a means of rallying a credulous population 739 00:45:26,100 --> 00:45:30,030 during a failing war. It's the best evidence scene of his 740 00:45:30,060 --> 00:45:33,270 imitation of the tyrannies of the 20th century because as you 741 00:45:33,270 --> 00:45:36,870 know, both the Nazis and the communists killed the gays 742 00:45:38,220 --> 00:45:46,680 according to yet another band journo okay. 743 00:45:47,940 --> 00:45:51,960 I got nothing else on that. Little bit on China now. Oh, 744 00:45:51,990 --> 00:45:52,590 yeah. Oh, God. 745 00:45:53,100 --> 00:45:54,360 They covered all the bases. 746 00:45:54,450 --> 00:45:59,460 Everything out in the last weeks is the Chairman of the Joint 747 00:45:59,460 --> 00:46:03,480 Chiefs Mark Milley, General Milley is speaking about winter 748 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:08,430 may be a time for negotiations between us. We can't have that. 749 00:46:08,610 --> 00:46:09,780 How do you see that most 750 00:46:09,780 --> 00:46:14,070 conflicts and negotiations. But that requires a seriousness on 751 00:46:14,070 --> 00:46:17,220 the part of the Russians in this instance, that I don't think we 752 00:46:17,220 --> 00:46:19,980 see at least it's not our assessment that the Russians are 753 00:46:19,980 --> 00:46:23,640 serious at this point about a real negotiation. 754 00:46:23,970 --> 00:46:26,340 I want to bring China into the conversation. What's your level 755 00:46:26,340 --> 00:46:29,100 of concern right now about cooperation between the Russians 756 00:46:29,100 --> 00:46:29,970 and the Chinese. 757 00:46:30,420 --> 00:46:34,170 When Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin have formed a pretty close 758 00:46:34,170 --> 00:46:37,530 partnership over recent years, you know, a few weeks before 759 00:46:37,530 --> 00:46:40,890 Putin launched his invasion in Ukraine, when they met at the 760 00:46:40,890 --> 00:46:45,150 Winter Olympics in Beijing. They proclaimed a friendship without 761 00:46:45,150 --> 00:46:48,330 limits. What turns out that there actually are some limits 762 00:46:48,330 --> 00:46:52,500 to that partnership, at least in terms of President Xi's 763 00:46:52,500 --> 00:46:56,070 reluctance to supply the kind of military assistance to Putin 764 00:46:56,070 --> 00:46:59,460 that he's asked for in the course of the war in Ukraine. So 765 00:46:59,460 --> 00:47:03,030 I wouldn't underestimate for a moment their commitment between 766 00:47:03,030 --> 00:47:05,100 the Chinese and Russian leadership's to that 767 00:47:05,100 --> 00:47:09,180 partnership. But it's been interesting to watch the Chinese 768 00:47:09,180 --> 00:47:12,300 leadership's reaction to the war in Ukraine, I don't think any 769 00:47:12,300 --> 00:47:16,050 foreign leader has paid more careful attention to that war, 770 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,800 and Russia's poor military performance than Xi Jinping has, 771 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,950 as he thinks about his own ambitions in Taiwan and 772 00:47:22,950 --> 00:47:23,490 elsewhere. 773 00:47:24,060 --> 00:47:27,630 This guy sounds like he's got it all under control, doesn't he? 774 00:47:28,290 --> 00:47:32,100 But as his style Cha, maybe he does, maybe he's running the 775 00:47:32,100 --> 00:47:33,660 show wouldn't surprise me. 776 00:47:34,410 --> 00:47:38,130 Yeah, maybe? Yeah. Well, he's got the background to actually 777 00:47:38,130 --> 00:47:43,110 do work. I wanted to play these clips on the show, because it's 778 00:47:43,110 --> 00:47:46,410 a good background or to everything we do. 779 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,020 In fact, I have a couple of clips to play into it once we're 780 00:47:49,020 --> 00:47:50,160 done with the series. 781 00:47:50,940 --> 00:47:53,850 And so let's go listen to what it now this is the first clip 782 00:47:53,850 --> 00:47:55,830 where it you have the rest of these, you know, he's got some 783 00:47:56,160 --> 00:48:00,570 misstatements I think about Putin about Putin thinks he 784 00:48:00,570 --> 00:48:05,700 doesn't know. But this is the first clip on Taiwan that he 785 00:48:05,700 --> 00:48:08,850 actually does. There's a factoid in here, he actually let one go, 786 00:48:08,910 --> 00:48:11,790 he let one out to the public, he released a fact 787 00:48:11,910 --> 00:48:15,750 here it is believe there are near term ambitions on his part, 788 00:48:16,170 --> 00:48:21,510 to take over Taiwan. And I mean, in this next year or so, 789 00:48:21,720 --> 00:48:24,570 yeah, I'm not sure I would measure it in terms of months or 790 00:48:24,570 --> 00:48:27,690 a year. But I would not underestimate for a moment or 791 00:48:27,720 --> 00:48:32,040 nor do any of my colleagues here at CIA underestimate his 792 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:37,560 ambition to control Taiwan. In other words, to unify Beijing 793 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:43,710 and Taiwan on The PRCs terms. He's insisted publicly that his 794 00:48:43,710 --> 00:48:46,590 preference is to do that by me and short of the use of force, 795 00:48:46,590 --> 00:48:49,020 but we know that he's also instructed his military 796 00:48:49,020 --> 00:48:53,760 leadership to be ready by 2027 to launch a war. And so I think 797 00:48:53,940 --> 00:48:57,120 the honest answer is the further you get into this decade, the 798 00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:00,240 greater the risks of a military conflict. 799 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:05,790 2027 Have you heard this? No, it's a weird number. I haven't 800 00:49:05,790 --> 00:49:11,130 heard of 2027 about anything. 2030 2050 by 2020 So 801 00:49:11,130 --> 00:49:13,860 those are all Yeah, but it's all United Nations World Order 802 00:49:13,860 --> 00:49:17,910 stuff. The others numbers. This is a number that they that they 803 00:49:18,990 --> 00:49:23,220 got from China from there, who if they even have any spies left 804 00:49:23,220 --> 00:49:24,570 there, I guess. 805 00:49:24,930 --> 00:49:28,890 Not even a lucky number. Wouldn't it be 28 I mean, it's 806 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:34,110 911 it is 11 I don't know that doesn't seem like 807 00:49:34,110 --> 00:49:38,490 there's nothing there's just a number. And, but if he is solid 808 00:49:38,490 --> 00:49:39,210 with it, it says 809 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:45,330 the CIA chief familiar with Zhi Jing, pings calendar predicts 810 00:49:45,330 --> 00:49:51,330 that 2027 Hmm. Okay, well, we got a while to go then. Yeah. 811 00:49:51,450 --> 00:49:51,840 Oh, this 812 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,740 be a long time ago. So here we go with it. Now he's going to 813 00:49:55,740 --> 00:49:57,180 discuss tick tock. 814 00:49:58,020 --> 00:50:03,210 One other question about China is there Very popular social 815 00:50:03,210 --> 00:50:08,010 media platform app, Tik Tok, your domestic counterpart, the 816 00:50:08,010 --> 00:50:11,700 head of the FBI, Chris Rea, has said it's a threat to US 817 00:50:11,700 --> 00:50:14,010 national security. Do you agree? 818 00:50:14,430 --> 00:50:18,210 I do. I mean, I think it's a genuine concern, I think for the 819 00:50:18,210 --> 00:50:22,560 US government, in the sense that because the parent company of 820 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:28,980 Tiktok is a Chinese company, the Chinese government is able to, 821 00:50:29,010 --> 00:50:32,670 you know, insist upon extracting the private data of a lot of Tik 822 00:50:32,670 --> 00:50:36,570 Tok users in this country, and also to shape the content of 823 00:50:36,570 --> 00:50:40,110 what goes on to tick tock as well, to suit the interests of 824 00:50:40,110 --> 00:50:43,860 the Chinese leadership. I think those are real challenges. And a 825 00:50:43,860 --> 00:50:45,060 source of real concern 826 00:50:45,090 --> 00:50:49,590 is, you know, some American lawmakers want to ban Tiktok, do 827 00:50:49,590 --> 00:50:50,610 you think that's a good idea? 828 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,670 Well, you know, in my role See, this is where blessedly as an 829 00:50:53,670 --> 00:50:57,600 intelligence and an intelligence roll, I mean, I'm not I'm not 830 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,510 gonna offer judgments on those kinds of policy or legislative 831 00:51:00,510 --> 00:51:04,380 decisions. What I would underscore though, is that it's 832 00:51:04,410 --> 00:51:08,310 genuinely troubling to see you know, what the Chinese 833 00:51:08,310 --> 00:51:11,550 government could do to manipulate Tik Tok? 834 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:15,690 And what would you recommend people tell their children or 835 00:51:15,690 --> 00:51:18,510 their young friends that 836 00:51:18,510 --> 00:51:19,680 went doors? No, 837 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:20,700 it'd be really careful. 838 00:51:20,850 --> 00:51:22,380 You want to say anything more than that? 839 00:51:22,410 --> 00:51:23,610 No. really careful. 840 00:51:24,510 --> 00:51:31,350 Wow. That's what was she going for? I have no idea when you 841 00:51:31,350 --> 00:51:33,930 hear that again. Let me get let me hear that again. That was 842 00:51:33,930 --> 00:51:34,740 kind of pathetic. 843 00:51:34,740 --> 00:51:36,660 Was she expecting to manipulate? 844 00:51:36,690 --> 00:51:40,080 I think she was expecting a different answer. Someone at CIA 845 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,440 told her that I as is number one, we're looking at where you 846 00:51:43,500 --> 00:51:44,400 saved the children. 847 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,900 And what would you recommend people tell their children or 848 00:51:48,900 --> 00:51:52,500 their young friends about whether us to 849 00:51:53,010 --> 00:51:53,940 be really careful? 850 00:51:54,060 --> 00:51:55,620 You want to say anything more than that? 851 00:51:55,650 --> 00:51:56,850 Nope. really careful, 852 00:51:57,300 --> 00:51:59,130 huh? No, 853 00:51:59,220 --> 00:52:03,540 you know what your your analysis I has to be spot on. They told 854 00:52:03,540 --> 00:52:06,690 her that she's got to ask this question and to expect this 855 00:52:06,690 --> 00:52:09,990 answer. And he never delivered the answer you didn't deliver. 856 00:52:09,990 --> 00:52:14,400 So she asked again, say Well, maybe he forgot what the script 857 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:22,830 said. Let me ask it again. Hey, Eliza Schlesinger with that 858 00:52:22,860 --> 00:52:23,430 crazy. 859 00:52:23,580 --> 00:52:27,330 I've been tracking Tencent who, you know, they, they own the 860 00:52:27,330 --> 00:52:31,950 bytedance. They also have a significant stake in Elon Musk's 861 00:52:31,950 --> 00:52:36,480 empire, more than likely in in Twitter as well, certainly 862 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:41,400 Tesla. Ever since their earnings, which was end of 863 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:46,440 November. They've gotten here, they're up there on the NASDAQ. 864 00:52:46,830 --> 00:52:51,180 They've gone from about five bucks to eight bucks. They've 865 00:52:51,210 --> 00:52:55,530 almost Well, they've they've they've they've almost doubled, 866 00:52:55,560 --> 00:53:00,570 they got pretty close that nine there's something going on 867 00:53:00,570 --> 00:53:03,900 people people in the know are buying the stock, and it's going 868 00:53:03,900 --> 00:53:07,050 up in like a parabolic almost 869 00:53:07,110 --> 00:53:11,280 was this tic TOCs a hell of a product. Yeah, they're, they're 870 00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:14,580 concerned about the Chinese gathering data. They're not 871 00:53:14,580 --> 00:53:14,700 they're 872 00:53:14,700 --> 00:53:17,280 concerned about the earnings that tick tock, well, no, 873 00:53:18,630 --> 00:53:23,670 no, no. Yeah. You're telling it under, you're telling the 874 00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:27,810 underlying truth? Yes, sorry. I'm telling what they're 875 00:53:27,810 --> 00:53:31,440 concerned about. And so they say they're concerned about this, 876 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,140 oh, they're going to collect all this data on what data they're 877 00:53:34,140 --> 00:53:36,870 going to collect. I mean, it's just a bunch of goofballs 878 00:53:36,870 --> 00:53:40,140 usually on Tik Tok, or somebody falling off a roof. And by law, 879 00:53:40,140 --> 00:53:43,050 by the way, guys an idiot. He's just schlemiel put him on that 880 00:53:43,050 --> 00:53:44,070 list. It's Lexus. 881 00:53:44,100 --> 00:53:49,050 It's LexisNexis. As we know, Nexus, who does the vetting and 882 00:53:49,050 --> 00:53:52,170 the onboarding? It's an American company that does that. For 883 00:53:52,170 --> 00:53:54,210 them. They're contracted to do that? 884 00:53:54,510 --> 00:53:59,100 Well, my point is not that my point is, if they're so damn 885 00:53:59,100 --> 00:54:01,680 concerned about all this stuff, how come they don't mention or 886 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,770 even show any concern about these genetic testing companies, 887 00:54:04,980 --> 00:54:09,000 or these companies that do gene testing to see what kind of you 888 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,180 look like, you're gonna get sick when you get older, and descend, 889 00:54:12,210 --> 00:54:15,030 and they're owned by Chinese companies and that data of 890 00:54:15,030 --> 00:54:18,480 American citizens genes structures are being shipped to 891 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,600 China? The reason? There's no mention of that, 892 00:54:22,140 --> 00:54:27,750 because it's pharmaceutical companies. They run the world. 893 00:54:28,290 --> 00:54:33,750 Alright, on to the next topic is Iran control is short. These are 894 00:54:33,780 --> 00:54:36,000 last clips are short. On Iran. 895 00:54:36,210 --> 00:54:40,170 This is an Iranian regime does does not have good answers for 896 00:54:40,170 --> 00:54:44,520 what's on the minds of a very young population 70% of which 897 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:46,200 today is under the age of 30. 898 00:54:46,770 --> 00:54:50,340 Can those protests continue though given the number of 899 00:54:50,370 --> 00:54:55,440 arrests of people who are dead and now execution? 900 00:54:56,100 --> 00:55:01,050 I think they can and it's been a remarkable in the Keesha have 901 00:55:01,050 --> 00:55:03,960 both that frustration that I mentioned before, and also the 902 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:08,130 genuine courage of people out in the streets. And so, you know, 903 00:55:08,550 --> 00:55:11,610 this has gone on for just about three months now. And it can 904 00:55:11,610 --> 00:55:13,020 continue for some time. 905 00:55:13,620 --> 00:55:17,610 And now, of course, we sat around with the Russians in 906 00:55:17,610 --> 00:55:22,710 Ukraine using the drones. How worried? Are you about that 907 00:55:22,710 --> 00:55:23,580 relationship? 908 00:55:23,970 --> 00:55:26,370 Well, quite worried. I mean, you know, historically, there's a 909 00:55:26,370 --> 00:55:30,090 lot of mistrust between Russians and Iranians, but they need each 910 00:55:30,090 --> 00:55:33,690 other right now. And what's beginning to emerge is at least 911 00:55:33,690 --> 00:55:37,740 the beginnings of a full fledged Defense Partnership. Oh, nice 912 00:55:37,740 --> 00:55:41,460 to know that CIA will be continuing to, to ignite 913 00:55:41,460 --> 00:55:44,790 protests in Iran, because that's clearly how he knows that. 914 00:55:45,240 --> 00:55:48,810 Oh, yeah. No, I was listening to this one with it. I was there 915 00:55:48,810 --> 00:55:54,240 running the OP. In Iran, they would have some insight. So 916 00:55:54,270 --> 00:55:56,760 okay, so it's gonna continue for four months, at least 917 00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:57,960 good to know. Good to know. 918 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:02,610 Yes. Same exact thought, who didn't know i Here's another 919 00:56:02,610 --> 00:56:05,100 situation. This is the last clip. This is him talking about 920 00:56:05,100 --> 00:56:12,630 the North Korea, and this great series of little clips. This is 921 00:56:12,630 --> 00:56:16,170 a one where a Judy I guess, made a mistake or said something 922 00:56:16,170 --> 00:56:20,850 wrong. And she I kept the pauses and stuff in because it was a 923 00:56:21,060 --> 00:56:23,610 some sort of a botch or something. I'm not sure what 924 00:56:23,610 --> 00:56:26,490 happened. She's good. You'll get a kick out of this. And this is 925 00:56:26,490 --> 00:56:29,430 him talking about the North Koreans. Just a question 926 00:56:29,430 --> 00:56:35,400 about North Korea. There was another test today of a saw, I 927 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:39,600 guess, a solid state ng missile, and the US has no eyes on the 928 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:49,500 ground in the country. Is that right? No answer. If where is 929 00:56:49,500 --> 00:56:54,900 that headed? Where do you see that regime going? And do you 930 00:56:54,900 --> 00:57:03,060 see any evidence that the US can head off the worst kind of 931 00:57:03,090 --> 00:57:07,560 attack that the North Koreans may be capable of? Well, I 932 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,050 mean, I think what we've seen over the last year, just as she 933 00:57:10,050 --> 00:57:13,890 said, Judy is quite troubling, more than 50 launches of North 934 00:57:13,890 --> 00:57:18,450 Korean missiles of various ranges. And clearly preparations 935 00:57:18,450 --> 00:57:22,230 for what would be the seventh nuclear test by the North Korean 936 00:57:22,230 --> 00:57:23,520 regime as well. 937 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:27,510 All right, so I'm gonna say this was also the way the briefing 938 00:57:27,510 --> 00:57:31,290 went and someone was not. Someone didn't brief burns 939 00:57:31,290 --> 00:57:36,870 properly. The briefing went. Look, we're going to say we 940 00:57:36,870 --> 00:57:42,840 don't have any boots on the ground in North Korea. So don't 941 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:46,380 even ask about it. So what she does is she says we don't have 942 00:57:46,380 --> 00:57:48,780 anybody a boots on the ground. Thank you. She's gonna get a 943 00:57:48,780 --> 00:57:53,130 quick. That's right. But instead, the guy was not 944 00:57:53,130 --> 00:57:57,720 briefed. Anyone? I think that's what happened. He was listening. 945 00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:02,640 So I guess a solid state engine. And the US has no eyes on the 946 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:08,970 ground in the country. Is that right? No answer. 947 00:58:09,900 --> 00:58:11,220 Wow. 948 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,040 Yeah, that was a fuckup. 949 00:58:14,100 --> 00:58:17,370 I think it's the same. I think it's the same briefing, someone, 950 00:58:17,790 --> 00:58:21,960 something got briefed poorly on one or the other or both sides. 951 00:58:21,990 --> 00:58:25,230 That was a complete botch that lasts. Why did they leave that 952 00:58:25,230 --> 00:58:30,180 in? I know why. It's the it's the holiday crew. 953 00:58:31,590 --> 00:58:32,520 Exactly. 954 00:58:33,990 --> 00:58:38,850 Now, did you at any point, have anything to say about the still 955 00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,790 not fully released JFK documents? 956 00:58:42,870 --> 00:58:46,110 I don't remember that. Now. I don't think so. The public they 957 00:58:46,110 --> 00:58:49,830 should do because that's, that's that is a That's it. That's a 958 00:58:49,830 --> 00:58:50,490 crime against 959 00:58:50,730 --> 00:58:52,890 crime. It's a crime. Here's a quick story. 960 00:58:53,910 --> 00:58:56,820 Because it was it was give everyone a background on this. 961 00:58:57,330 --> 00:59:01,740 There was legislation. I think it was in the 90s. That during 962 00:59:01,860 --> 00:59:05,520 you had sorry, I think it was during Clinton, wasn't it? Yeah, 963 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:09,060 I think it was during Clinton, who said you have to release all 964 00:59:09,060 --> 00:59:14,670 the JFK doctors, all of them. Every single document. It's 75 965 00:59:14,670 --> 00:59:17,730 years after the death. I think that was basically the the law 966 00:59:17,730 --> 00:59:22,200 and it was put in law. And then it was so that minute during the 967 00:59:22,260 --> 00:59:26,040 Trump administration, it was supposed to be released. But 968 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:29,730 now, the CIA's pushed back on Trump's that, don't do it. Don't 969 00:59:29,730 --> 00:59:33,720 do it. Don't do it. And so they didn't do it and Trump has 970 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,210 pushed it out, kick the can down the road from your well, it's 971 00:59:36,210 --> 00:59:39,510 gonna get released. So what, by the way, which I think is 972 00:59:39,510 --> 00:59:43,500 another flaw on Trump. He should have just released it. But as 973 00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:46,050 per law, they're going to impeach him to impeach him for 974 00:59:46,050 --> 00:59:50,760 that. That would be easier be because it's a violation. So now 975 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:54,030 we have to come up again with Biden and by the same thing, no, 976 00:59:54,030 --> 00:59:54,900 no, I'm not going to do it. 977 00:59:56,580 --> 00:59:59,400 Is that exactly I think he said I believe it should all be 978 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:01,860 released. But 979 01:00:04,500 --> 01:00:06,600 yeah, well, somebody's not gonna do it. Yeah. Well, here's 980 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,630 the public is getting its first look at newly released documents 981 01:00:09,630 --> 01:00:14,070 about JFK assassination. 13,000 records have now been made 982 01:00:14,070 --> 01:00:16,620 public by the Biden administration, including 983 01:00:16,620 --> 01:00:20,370 information about Lee Harvey Oswald and his time in Mexico. 984 01:00:20,580 --> 01:00:24,360 The National Archives says only 3% of its documents related to 985 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:27,420 the assassination are still redacted due to national 986 01:00:27,420 --> 01:00:29,070 intelligence concerns. Yeah, 987 01:00:29,730 --> 01:00:32,910 there it is. Intelligence concerns like you might find out 988 01:00:32,910 --> 01:00:39,150 that we're a bunch of creeps. Yes. Okay. So just responding to 989 01:00:39,150 --> 01:00:43,080 a couple of these these different things differently. 990 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:43,170 You 991 01:00:43,170 --> 01:00:48,240 know, you've got to take the CIA side on this day would make the 992 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,570 argument of course Ron Paul's the one who said and we have the 993 01:00:51,570 --> 01:00:55,830 clip somewhere you probably find it. Ron Paul said that the CIA 994 01:00:55,830 --> 01:00:59,310 took over the country. And we just have you know, assumed as 995 01:00:59,310 --> 01:01:05,490 possible. It bloodless coup. It with the assassination of 996 01:01:05,490 --> 01:01:09,000 Kennedy. Right. At some point they decided well, Kennedy's 997 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:12,900 gotta go because he was he was problematic. And I use the word 998 01:01:12,930 --> 01:01:15,810 advisedly, you did is a problematic President cuz he was 999 01:01:15,810 --> 01:01:21,300 probably mobbed up like the entire Kennedy family. And it 1000 01:01:21,300 --> 01:01:24,300 was like you having the mafia running the country? It wasn't a 1001 01:01:24,300 --> 01:01:27,420 good, good idea. So sure, let 1002 01:01:27,420 --> 01:01:28,320 me see if this is it. 1003 01:01:29,250 --> 01:01:31,770 Why did you reject the Secret Service protection? Seems like 1004 01:01:31,770 --> 01:01:35,100 that would be well, it's a form of welfare. 1005 01:01:35,130 --> 01:01:39,180 No, that's not it. It wasn't called. It wasn't called Ron 1006 01:01:39,180 --> 01:01:43,560 Paul, CIA. You know, the can't find it. We do have the, I'm 1007 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:44,430 sure we do somewhere. 1008 01:01:44,430 --> 01:01:50,100 But Ron Paul made the assertion first. And it was dated at the 1009 01:01:50,100 --> 01:01:53,700 Kennedy assassination. And anyone who knew anybody who, 1010 01:01:53,850 --> 01:01:57,150 whose family or friends was in the CIA during that era, 1011 01:01:57,300 --> 01:02:01,410 including a woodworker that worked here at this house. He 1012 01:02:01,410 --> 01:02:08,130 told me and his dad was a field guy. And he says in Hong Kong, 1013 01:02:08,460 --> 01:02:12,060 or in I think it was Hong Kong. He says he was called back to 1014 01:02:12,060 --> 01:02:14,940 the states on an emergency basis the day before the 1015 01:02:14,940 --> 01:02:16,980 assassination. And he thought it was kind of fishy. 1016 01:02:17,009 --> 01:02:24,629 My favorite is if you ask anyone who was around and alive during 1017 01:02:24,629 --> 01:02:29,639 the 63 assassination of Kennedy, where they were, it's very 1018 01:02:29,639 --> 01:02:35,009 similar to ourselves and me, certainly. With 911. I remember 1019 01:02:35,009 --> 01:02:37,709 exactly where I was, you remember where you were? You 1020 01:02:37,709 --> 01:02:40,109 were old enough to remember where you were on. When Kennedy 1021 01:02:40,109 --> 01:02:41,969 was assassinated? What you were doing? You remember that? 1022 01:02:41,999 --> 01:02:43,919 Literally, do you want to share? 1023 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:47,820 I was in school? Uh huh. And it was announced over the PA 1024 01:02:47,820 --> 01:02:48,390 system. 1025 01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:52,230 So for those who don't know, there was only one person who 1026 01:02:52,230 --> 01:02:55,830 cannot remember where he was on that fateful day. Good story, 1027 01:02:55,830 --> 01:02:59,430 and that is George Bush Senior. 1028 01:02:59,850 --> 01:03:07,380 Yeah, George HW. No, not HW. Ah, no, it's HW. No, it's 1029 01:03:07,380 --> 01:03:11,220 George. Oh, you're right. Herbert herbert walker. Yeah. Is 1030 01:03:11,220 --> 01:03:16,800 he I thought. Anyway, the old guy the dead one. 1031 01:03:17,610 --> 01:03:19,980 Yeah, the one who ran the CIA. Yeah. 1032 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,370 He didn't know where he was. I can't remember. I just can't 1033 01:03:23,370 --> 01:03:24,600 remember where I was. 1034 01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:27,450 And he was in Texas. I think they have photos of him there. I 1035 01:03:28,530 --> 01:03:31,680 guess he was. I don't think they have photos but they have 1036 01:03:32,310 --> 01:03:33,540 frozen in Dallas. 1037 01:03:33,570 --> 01:03:36,750 I think there's flight records or some there's something that I 1038 01:03:36,750 --> 01:03:38,970 remember from many, many years of 1039 01:03:38,970 --> 01:03:41,730 writing, you know, you have to say, you know, doing the country 1040 01:03:41,730 --> 01:03:42,900 of favorite the way you saw it. 1041 01:03:45,330 --> 01:03:48,180 jump out of airplanes, save the world. That's what it was back 1042 01:03:48,180 --> 01:03:50,250 in the day. All right. Let me move on to some of the other 1043 01:03:50,250 --> 01:03:53,970 things the CIA director discussed there. You know, 1044 01:03:53,970 --> 01:03:58,800 these, these collaborations between Russia and China, Russia 1045 01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:06,900 and Iran. There was a big EU. Storm Trooper, Star Fleet 1046 01:04:06,900 --> 01:04:11,310 command meeting. Everyone getting together, talking about 1047 01:04:11,310 --> 01:04:14,790 what are we going to do Russia has a real problem. And are we 1048 01:04:14,790 --> 01:04:20,250 still gonna be able to stand up to Russia as a bloc? And I just 1049 01:04:20,250 --> 01:04:23,760 got this off of where'd this come from? I think this is from 1050 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:31,860 this may be from your own news. They they interviewed one of our 1051 01:04:31,860 --> 01:04:36,930 buddies Gifford hofstadt. If you remember he used to be the the 1052 01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:40,290 for a while there. He was the Prime Minister of Belgium but of 1053 01:04:40,290 --> 01:04:43,980 course we remember him. As a member of European Parliament 1054 01:04:43,980 --> 01:04:46,590 during Brexit he had a big mouth and he likes to race old 1055 01:04:46,590 --> 01:04:49,050 fashioned cars, and he tells it like it is 1056 01:04:49,110 --> 01:04:51,810 but for all that has been achieved in the way of support 1057 01:04:51,810 --> 01:04:56,340 for Ukraine. The crisis has exposed some deep cracks in the 1058 01:04:56,340 --> 01:05:00,000 EU system. Many in Europe are concerned about the loss of 1059 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:01,830 title in a changing world, 1060 01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:07,110 what we need is a will of the 27 member states to build a real 1061 01:05:07,110 --> 01:05:10,770 European Union that can be effective and resilient in the 1062 01:05:10,770 --> 01:05:13,770 world of tomorrow. Because the world of tomorrow, let's be very 1063 01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:16,980 clear about that. It's not a world of member states or 1064 01:05:16,980 --> 01:05:19,950 nations, it will be a wealth of blocks of empires. 1065 01:05:20,220 --> 01:05:24,540 A stronger European Union means acting as a collective. But 1066 01:05:24,540 --> 01:05:27,450 member states have to be prepared to cede more 1067 01:05:27,450 --> 01:05:31,260 sovereignty to Brussels to be able to do that. But faced with 1068 01:05:31,260 --> 01:05:35,100 an energy crisis triggered by the war in Ukraine, EU member 1069 01:05:35,100 --> 01:05:38,790 states have increasingly gone the other way, pursuing their 1070 01:05:38,790 --> 01:05:42,690 national interests as they seek to shield their own economies 1071 01:05:42,690 --> 01:05:45,660 and populations from the wars consequences. 1072 01:05:47,580 --> 01:05:51,540 So we're gonna have blocks, blocks, which also means we'll 1073 01:05:51,540 --> 01:05:54,000 have different reserve currencies. 1074 01:05:55,980 --> 01:06:00,180 What they explain this to me What is What did they say 1075 01:06:00,180 --> 01:06:02,610 they're gonna have blocks, like countries, you know, like 1076 01:06:02,610 --> 01:06:03,750 sovereign nations. 1077 01:06:03,780 --> 01:06:07,230 Yeah, that we have blocks. So you have the European Union 1078 01:06:07,230 --> 01:06:13,710 block. That's a block the United States and I guess, eventually 1079 01:06:13,710 --> 01:06:16,410 they want to make it United States, Canada and Mexico, that 1080 01:06:16,410 --> 01:06:21,330 will be a block. Yeah. And then it'll be China, Russia, probably 1081 01:06:21,330 --> 01:06:25,080 Iran will be a block. You know, 1082 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,140 what about South America that these guys left with the short 1083 01:06:28,140 --> 01:06:29,670 sheet they just won the World Cup now 1084 01:06:29,700 --> 01:06:34,080 they just who's gonna want someone else to go down there 1085 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,960 and invade them and bring them into their block. Let's bring 1086 01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:40,590 them into their block. Now there is a block forming against 1087 01:06:40,590 --> 01:06:45,540 China. And I'm pretty sure that this is built on our military 1088 01:06:45,540 --> 01:06:50,250 industrial complex and our money printing. As Japan gets ready. 1089 01:06:50,399 --> 01:06:54,089 Japan unveiled plans for its biggest military buildup since 1090 01:06:54,089 --> 01:06:57,359 World War Two. The government says it will double defense 1091 01:06:57,359 --> 01:07:03,299 spending bring it up to the NATO standard of 2% of GDP. Japan's 1092 01:07:03,299 --> 01:07:07,739 move away from a self defense only stance comes as it seeks to 1093 01:07:07,739 --> 01:07:11,159 counter regional threats. It plans to acquire long range 1094 01:07:11,159 --> 01:07:15,569 missiles capable of striking China. Beijing said the plans 1095 01:07:15,599 --> 01:07:19,559 undermined bilateral relations, and I'm very pleased to be 1096 01:07:19,559 --> 01:07:23,129 joined now by Tomohiko Taniguchi is a professor at Keio 1097 01:07:23,129 --> 01:07:26,519 University Graduate School and formerly a special adviser to 1098 01:07:26,519 --> 01:07:29,639 Japan's late Prime Minister Shinzo are they? And I 1099 01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:31,980 just want to say this is Deutsche Bella, who are bringing 1100 01:07:31,980 --> 01:07:33,690 a lot of interesting reports like this, 1101 01:07:33,750 --> 01:07:37,380 Professor Taniguchi Could you give us an idea of how 1102 01:07:37,380 --> 01:07:41,700 significant this announcement we just heard about is good, just 1103 01:07:41,700 --> 01:07:47,190 not only significant, but long overdue, because the street 1104 01:07:47,190 --> 01:07:52,050 address and ZIP code that you find around Japan requires much 1105 01:07:52,050 --> 01:07:56,280 much more insurance premium. Japan is an immediate neighbor 1106 01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:59,970 to Russia, North Korea and China. 1107 01:08:00,089 --> 01:08:02,309 Doesn't this guy sound like George Takei? Like all of a 1108 01:08:02,309 --> 01:08:05,099 sudden he's gonna go hey, now, just 1109 01:08:06,060 --> 01:08:06,960 k never went? 1110 01:08:09,090 --> 01:08:10,260 Oh, my No, he says 1111 01:08:13,260 --> 01:08:19,260 that's not something that you could envy. And Russia is 1/3 of 1112 01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:24,060 Japan in terms of in terms of economy, but China is growing 1113 01:08:24,090 --> 01:08:27,840 still fast. And it's already four or five times as large as 1114 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:33,330 Japan's economy. And China is 10 times as big as Russia as regard 1115 01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:38,130 GDP, none of which has ever exercised the democracy and 1116 01:08:38,310 --> 01:08:41,580 investing in all of all of which are investing very much heavily 1117 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:47,160 in nuclear arsenal. So it's significant, but belated action. 1118 01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:52,020 And all that all I see flying is Osprey is I see Patriot 1119 01:08:52,020 --> 01:08:52,770 missiles. 1120 01:08:53,190 --> 01:08:55,770 There's an Osprey in the Bay Area that flies over the house 1121 01:08:55,770 --> 01:08:58,290 every one did during the show once I remember 1122 01:08:58,440 --> 01:09:01,110 they got they they've they've killed the Osprey program. They 1123 01:09:01,110 --> 01:09:02,400 have new new 1124 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:07,170 sensors will kill anything which is like an Osprey rotor it's a 1125 01:09:07,170 --> 01:09:12,660 die slightly different looking wing and but the Osprey when it 1126 01:09:12,660 --> 01:09:16,200 comes in it flew by the other day to death thing is just a 1127 01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:21,510 noisy is right thing I've ever heard in my life. Whap Whap Whap 1128 01:09:21,510 --> 01:09:25,440 it's just shakes the house is worse than the earthquake. So by 1129 01:09:25,440 --> 01:09:27,930 the way, that report is not unknown to the United States. We 1130 01:09:27,930 --> 01:09:29,910 do have a PBS version. Uh huh. 1131 01:09:30,180 --> 01:09:30,690 Okay, 1132 01:09:30,719 --> 01:09:35,969 hold on a second. Short and sweet. This is the clip is 1133 01:09:35,969 --> 01:09:39,779 called Japan China is called China update. No, it's called 1134 01:09:39,779 --> 01:09:40,889 Japan rearming? 1135 01:09:42,030 --> 01:09:43,440 Yes, yes, I've got it here. 1136 01:09:43,500 --> 01:09:47,460 Japan is making a major break from its self defense only 1137 01:09:47,460 --> 01:09:51,420 security strategy. The new policy calls for acquiring first 1138 01:09:51,420 --> 01:09:55,320 strike capability and cruise missiles. Prime Minister Fumio 1139 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:59,490 Kishida said today that Japan's existing military cannot handle 1140 01:09:59,490 --> 01:10:03,150 growing rats from China and North Korea today can the 1141 01:10:03,150 --> 01:10:06,360 current capability of the Self Defense Forces deter a threat to 1142 01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:09,540 our country? When a threat becomes real can they protect 1143 01:10:09,540 --> 01:10:13,680 our country? We carried out a realistic simulation to say that 1144 01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:16,560 frankly the current situation is insufficient 1145 01:10:17,100 --> 01:10:21,060 Beijing charge that the Japanese move amounts to quote hyping up 1146 01:10:21,060 --> 01:10:22,890 the so called China threat 1147 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:26,190 so hiding up 1148 01:10:27,390 --> 01:10:31,020 it's kind of overlooked in the thing even though the Japanese 1149 01:10:31,020 --> 01:10:36,240 make good product we're the ones that make them armaments jobs 1150 01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:40,350 money in the bank for us, but isn't a money market, unexplored 1151 01:10:40,380 --> 01:10:41,490 exploited market? 1152 01:10:41,490 --> 01:10:46,020 But wait a minute, haven't we? We as the Federal Reserve, 1153 01:10:46,020 --> 01:10:49,860 haven't we propped up Japan with all this money, the Bank of 1154 01:10:49,860 --> 01:10:53,640 Japan, I think there was like 100, hundreds of billions of 1155 01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:54,180 swap. We 1156 01:10:54,180 --> 01:10:55,860 won it back. We want it back. 1157 01:10:56,370 --> 01:11:00,090 That's what it is. I agree. Just saying It's our money, too. So 1158 01:11:00,630 --> 01:11:03,870 we're giving them that we printed up the money. And now 1159 01:11:03,870 --> 01:11:06,060 we're gonna sell them this stuff. Which by the way, is all 1160 01:11:06,060 --> 01:11:08,760 the new stuff that we built with the Ukraine money? 1161 01:11:09,420 --> 01:11:14,190 Yeah. We got rid of inventory. We're building back up. We had a 1162 01:11:14,190 --> 01:11:16,980 build better than better yet. 1163 01:11:16,980 --> 01:11:20,730 We got it. It's an Mi c term build back better bombs. 1164 01:11:21,330 --> 01:11:22,710 Yes. All right. 1165 01:11:22,740 --> 01:11:27,510 Let's go back to Deutsche Avella. As China is still in a 1166 01:11:27,510 --> 01:11:30,450 little bit of trouble. Beijing specifically, as you know, they 1167 01:11:30,450 --> 01:11:33,900 had to, they had to release some of the pressure as people were 1168 01:11:33,900 --> 01:11:38,070 getting really angry about being locked up like dogs being welded 1169 01:11:38,070 --> 01:11:41,610 in their homes to die. In fact, they remember when they were 1170 01:11:41,610 --> 01:11:44,970 killing the dogs and cats, clubbing him and throwing in 1171 01:11:44,970 --> 01:11:51,360 bags on the street, only to show up later in the rations. Now, 1172 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:52,650 here's what's going on now. 1173 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:57,090 COVID-19 cases are surging across China as people take 1174 01:11:57,090 --> 01:12:00,690 advantage of new freedoms. Nationwide frustration and 1175 01:12:00,690 --> 01:12:03,990 unprecedented public protests forced authorities to ease 1176 01:12:03,990 --> 01:12:07,470 quarantine and travel restrictions. But since then, 1177 01:12:07,500 --> 01:12:11,520 more and more people are testing positive. official figures on 1178 01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:15,480 infections and fatalities remain low. But some estimates put the 1179 01:12:15,480 --> 01:12:19,830 likely death toll at more than 1 million by the end of next year. 1180 01:12:19,860 --> 01:12:24,870 People in Beijing lineup to get nasal spray boosters, cases are 1181 01:12:24,870 --> 01:12:25,470 surging 1182 01:12:25,500 --> 01:12:30,540 if you're gonna see MD gotta see these nasal spray boosters. This 1183 01:12:30,570 --> 01:12:36,690 report has video. So you it's on the street, the patient puts 1184 01:12:36,750 --> 01:12:41,370 tilts their head back and they insert this syringe with like a 1185 01:12:41,370 --> 01:12:45,240 little obviously not with a needle on the end but a a spout 1186 01:12:46,020 --> 01:12:49,950 and as a stopper that kind of goes in your nostril and they 1187 01:12:50,340 --> 01:12:53,220 shoot this whole thing him like right into the back of your 1188 01:12:53,220 --> 01:12:56,670 brain is like oh and you can see the people wincing when this 1189 01:12:56,670 --> 01:12:57,330 happens. 1190 01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:01,020 Bad Beijing line up. Probably killing 1191 01:13:01,020 --> 01:13:04,530 them here with what's wrong with an inhaler. You gotta slow spray 1192 01:13:04,530 --> 01:13:07,830 like we have, you know in this country, and yet, you breathe it 1193 01:13:07,830 --> 01:13:08,130 in 1194 01:13:08,160 --> 01:13:12,030 No, no there's fish, like like a navy forcing 1195 01:13:12,030 --> 01:13:14,640 it down your throat with like a neti pot. 1196 01:13:14,790 --> 01:13:19,320 Get nasal spray boosters, cases are surging after the government 1197 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:23,460 abruptly ended its strict zero COVID policy in the wake of 1198 01:13:23,460 --> 01:13:27,360 nationwide protests against the restrictions. Authorities are 1199 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:30,720 trying to persuade reluctant seniors and others at risk to 1200 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,750 get vaccinated to prevent large scale outbreaks, 1201 01:13:33,780 --> 01:13:38,040 hospitalizations, and deaths. Those already showing symptoms 1202 01:13:38,130 --> 01:13:41,670 make their way to temporary clinics set up around the city 1203 01:13:41,850 --> 01:13:45,870 like this public gymnasium where they can get medical advice and 1204 01:13:45,900 --> 01:13:49,770 treatment. Others are opting to stay home either because they're 1205 01:13:49,770 --> 01:13:53,970 already sick or trying to avoid infection. That means deliveries 1206 01:13:53,970 --> 01:13:57,990 of food and everyday items are in heavy demand. But scores of 1207 01:13:57,990 --> 01:14:01,860 workers are also coming down with the virus. So packages pile 1208 01:14:01,860 --> 01:14:06,300 up on the streets unclaimed in China's financial hubs. Shanghai 1209 01:14:06,390 --> 01:14:10,740 schools have switched to online classes as cases soar nurseries 1210 01:14:10,740 --> 01:14:14,220 and childcare centers are also set to close. Across the 1211 01:14:14,220 --> 01:14:17,250 country. People were quick to return to old habits when the 1212 01:14:17,250 --> 01:14:20,190 restrictions were eased crowding shopping malls and subway 1213 01:14:20,190 --> 01:14:21,960 stations, restaurants. 1214 01:14:22,410 --> 01:14:27,420 This is Giorgio Vela again, and I am of the belief that they are 1215 01:14:27,420 --> 01:14:31,080 only reporting this in this particular fashion because you 1216 01:14:31,080 --> 01:14:36,300 didn't see any video of what you described except for the nasal 1217 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:40,560 the nasal spray. I think they're gearing everybody up to get all 1218 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:45,990 freaked out and scared. Because all it's happening. Oh boy, you 1219 01:14:45,990 --> 01:14:48,870 think they're gearing up for the Europeans to have to go do 1220 01:14:48,870 --> 01:14:50,100 another long? Yeah, 1221 01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:51,840 I do. And here's part two. 1222 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:56,280 The Chinese capital Beijing is seeing a sharp increase in COVID 1223 01:14:56,280 --> 01:15:00,090 19 cases and high numbers of workers testing positive for or 1224 01:15:00,090 --> 01:15:03,720 the virus means that the city's funeral homes are overwhelmed. 1225 01:15:04,260 --> 01:15:08,220 Undertaker's say they're short on drivers and workers, so 1226 01:15:08,220 --> 01:15:12,090 families have to wait longer to cremate their relatives, local 1227 01:15:12,090 --> 01:15:15,330 media and reported more Coronavirus, LinkedIn deaths, 1228 01:15:15,420 --> 01:15:19,020 even though official tallies do not include the latest victims. 1229 01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:22,230 China have relaxed some of the world's toughest measures to 1230 01:15:22,230 --> 01:15:25,080 control the spread of the virus just over a week ago. 1231 01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:27,420 So we're all gonna die. 1232 01:15:28,410 --> 01:15:31,860 Well, they are all gonna die. That's not we don't have that 1233 01:15:31,860 --> 01:15:35,460 angle here. I got a PBS version, I think is about the same thing 1234 01:15:35,820 --> 01:15:39,720 as the China update, which you cited earlier. And I think this 1235 01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:40,800 is all they have to say 1236 01:15:40,890 --> 01:15:44,310 China's leaders pledged today to boost the country's economy 1237 01:15:44,580 --> 01:15:48,480 after pandemic losses that followed a two day conference, 1238 01:15:48,630 --> 01:15:52,200 the Chinese government has ended strict lockdowns that weakened 1239 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:56,040 economic growth, but there are growing fears of an explosion of 1240 01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:57,030 CO gossip. 1241 01:15:58,590 --> 01:16:02,640 It's coming, it's coming and everyone's gonna forget.

Yes, 1286 01:18:23,490 --> 01:18:23,820 like 1287 01:18:24,780 --> 01:18:26,100 the people who come in. 1288 01:18:27,930 --> 01:18:30,750 They're gonna, the brass is gonna notice me now 1289 01:18:30,780 --> 01:18:34,440 themselves if they have symptoms and before visiting with family 1290 01:18:34,440 --> 01:18:37,260 this holiday season. The President's plan comes as the 1291 01:18:37,260 --> 01:18:40,950 country faces a rise in respiratory viruses COVID-19, 1292 01:18:40,980 --> 01:18:42,780 RSV, and the flu 1293 01:18:42,810 --> 01:18:45,900 flu is rising in many parts of country. We're probably the 1294 01:18:45,900 --> 01:18:48,360 worst flu outbreak we've seen in a decade. 1295 01:18:48,390 --> 01:18:52,560 One boy in San Diego county so sick with two strains of the flu 1296 01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:55,680 he was put on a ventilator and two weeks later still in the 1297 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:59,010 ICU, his father urging others to get vaccinated. 1298 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:02,940 It was so bad that I was scared that he wasn't going to make it. 1299 01:19:03,150 --> 01:19:06,240 Now the World Health Organization is also tracking a 1300 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:09,750 potential uptick in invasive group A strep infections, 1301 01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:14,940 invasive group A strep infection. Doctor Devorah Can 1302 01:19:14,940 --> 01:19:16,590 you elaborate Oh, I 1303 01:19:16,590 --> 01:19:20,520 don't have a clue. But I'll say this. The way this package is 1304 01:19:20,550 --> 01:19:23,850 the way this this whole presentation has been edited and 1305 01:19:23,850 --> 01:19:28,050 done. The guy should get put into the A team. He's good. 1306 01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:31,650 There's a lot of value add. Patient, 1307 01:19:32,100 --> 01:19:35,430 this report is compared to what we've been playing so far. It's 1308 01:19:35,430 --> 01:19:37,740 the best. It's moves, 1309 01:19:37,740 --> 01:19:39,810 it moves, he moves. He's moving me. 1310 01:19:40,170 --> 01:19:42,480 I was scared that he wasn't gonna make it. 1311 01:19:42,690 --> 01:19:45,900 Now the World Health Organization is also tracking up 1312 01:19:46,769 --> 01:19:51,269 one more time. The one thing I have to say is every one of his 1313 01:19:51,269 --> 01:19:55,289 clips has this in the background. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. 1314 01:19:55,829 --> 01:19:58,799 Yeah, I know what does he get those noisy clips he's got to do 1315 01:19:58,799 --> 01:20:01,109 some some some you gotta fix net 1316 01:20:01,140 --> 01:20:05,040 to noise gating some filtering brah sucked in that Adobe 1317 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:08,700 filter, what is that thing called that Adobe filter that we 1318 01:20:08,730 --> 01:20:11,820 that we recommended to Project Veritas, which I think they're 1319 01:20:11,820 --> 01:20:14,880 using. That thing's crazy good. 1320 01:20:15,330 --> 01:20:18,570 Adobe's got some pretty dynamite filled, they have a blur filter, 1321 01:20:18,570 --> 01:20:19,740 that's unbelievable. 1322 01:20:19,770 --> 01:20:23,070 If I'm talking about one that removes the noise that that 1323 01:20:23,070 --> 01:20:30,060 makes that gets your noisy, hidden microphone that in a bar, 1324 01:20:30,780 --> 01:20:33,960 right? You get rid of all that. And it's not that easy to do by 1325 01:20:33,960 --> 01:20:38,100 hand, you can do it, but it always has, it throws the face 1326 01:20:38,100 --> 01:20:39,540 off and makes a mess. 1327 01:20:39,900 --> 01:20:43,470 No the stuff that Adobe needed tool, whether he should have 1328 01:20:43,470 --> 01:20:44,040 used this, 1329 01:20:44,370 --> 01:20:46,680 I was scared that he wasn't going to make it. 1330 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:50,010 Now the World Health Organization is also tracking a 1331 01:20:50,010 --> 01:20:53,820 potential uptick in invasive group A strep infections as 1332 01:20:53,820 --> 01:20:56,550 sometimes life threatening illness among children 1333 01:20:56,580 --> 01:21:00,300 invasive group a start is a disease or is a cluster of 1334 01:21:00,300 --> 01:21:03,510 diseases actually caused by the same bacteria. And when people 1335 01:21:03,510 --> 01:21:06,690 sometimes talk about flesh eating bacteria, that's usually 1336 01:21:06,690 --> 01:21:09,180 the bacteria that we're kind of pointing to. 1337 01:21:09,510 --> 01:21:13,560 Okay, hold on a second. This guy's give me a little bit too 1338 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:17,610 much information about invasive group A strep, which now has an 1339 01:21:17,610 --> 01:21:21,870 acronym, I guess, I guess, I guess. 1340 01:21:23,010 --> 01:21:26,670 You know, I'm back back to the editing of this thing. I think 1341 01:21:26,670 --> 01:21:29,580 she did the whole package. She did it. She went into the 1342 01:21:29,580 --> 01:21:29,970 editing 1343 01:21:30,660 --> 01:21:32,700 package. It's her own package. 1344 01:21:32,970 --> 01:21:35,490 I think she put the whole thing together because this is again, 1345 01:21:35,490 --> 01:21:39,180 the skeleton crew over the Christmas holidays, they 1346 01:21:39,180 --> 01:21:42,180 probably can't even get an out an editor to work because the 1347 01:21:42,180 --> 01:21:47,070 most people that do these news reports can can work in the AVID 1348 01:21:47,250 --> 01:21:49,920 editing room to do it themselves. If they have time. 1349 01:21:49,950 --> 01:21:56,610 Well, let's take a look at em un Ngu y e n, which is I think 1350 01:21:56,610 --> 01:21:58,620 that's very interesting. But first, let's take a little look 1351 01:21:58,620 --> 01:22:00,630 at some images Vietnamese. 1352 01:22:01,140 --> 01:22:01,590 Oh, well, 1353 01:22:01,590 --> 01:22:04,710 she's no, she's tiny. 1354 01:22:05,940 --> 01:22:08,340 Yeah, she wouldn't be if she's very tough East Asian. 1355 01:22:08,429 --> 01:22:10,349 Do you think she's doing the package herself? 1356 01:22:10,379 --> 01:22:14,939 I think she did the whole thing. Because it flows to it's just 1357 01:22:14,939 --> 01:22:18,689 like it's got the same machine gun style that she has 1358 01:22:18,689 --> 01:22:21,689 personally. So she would that would be reflected in the 1359 01:22:21,689 --> 01:22:23,489 editing job. Oh, did check it 1360 01:22:23,490 --> 01:22:28,290 out from the rap headline. This is November cites of last year, 1361 01:22:28,410 --> 01:22:33,540 ABC News hires anyone as multi platform reporter. If you're a 1362 01:22:33,540 --> 01:22:38,970 multi platform Reporter You can do this. I think you're right. I 1363 01:22:38,970 --> 01:22:41,250 think you're right. M is a skilled reporter and 1364 01:22:41,250 --> 01:22:43,440 storyteller, it will be a fantastic addition to our 1365 01:22:43,440 --> 01:22:47,820 talented Washington team. And she worked at spectrum news. Oh 1366 01:22:47,820 --> 01:22:51,300 yeah, you have to do everything yourself at spectrum. You have 1367 01:22:51,300 --> 01:22:54,180 to bring your own camera, set it up on sticks and stand in front 1368 01:22:54,180 --> 01:22:58,440 of it. Pretty much Oh, okay. Well, I'm very impressed that 1369 01:22:58,440 --> 01:23:01,140 you know, m m should m should be moving up 1370 01:23:01,139 --> 01:23:04,199 of diseases actually will ask by the same bacteria. And when 1371 01:23:04,199 --> 01:23:07,259 people sometimes talk about flesh eating bacteria, that's 1372 01:23:07,259 --> 01:23:11,009 usually the bacteria that we're kind of pointing to. It can 1373 01:23:11,009 --> 01:23:14,309 cause sepsis. Most of those patients you know, their illness 1374 01:23:14,309 --> 01:23:16,439 is obviously worse than the typical 1375 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:20,100 strep throat. One doctor is saying the ongoing shortage of 1376 01:23:20,100 --> 01:23:23,400 the antibiotic. amoxicillin could also be exacerbating the 1377 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:24,360 situation 1378 01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:32,490 well, there you go. I don't know about this invasive group A 1379 01:23:32,490 --> 01:23:36,600 strep. That's it doesn't stretch just bothersome. 1380 01:23:37,260 --> 01:23:39,600 Bless us bacteria in your throat. 1381 01:23:39,840 --> 01:23:43,110 I'm just saying it's bothersome. That stuff pops up all of a 1382 01:23:43,110 --> 01:23:46,980 sudden. Do we have anything? Do you have anything on COVID? We 1383 01:23:46,980 --> 01:23:49,320 should probably do just get anything anything out of the way 1384 01:23:49,320 --> 01:23:50,640 if you got anything left nobody 1385 01:23:51,030 --> 01:23:52,980 talked about diseases. Oh, 1386 01:23:53,010 --> 01:23:55,440 let's let's bring in random diseases then. 1387 01:23:56,010 --> 01:24:02,340 I have I take down a or a quest more of a question. Today's 1388 01:24:02,340 --> 01:24:06,060 question day for me of the dough Votto commercial, which is the 1389 01:24:06,390 --> 01:24:10,860 age thing you take. It's one of those multi ingredient is it 1390 01:24:10,860 --> 01:24:15,150 prep prep, and no, stop prepping someone else to finish advertise 1391 01:24:15,150 --> 01:24:17,970 to death. And of course ask your doctor ready even if you're not 1392 01:24:18,090 --> 01:24:21,120 a gay. They always have these really gay performers. They do 1393 01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:24,060 this. But there's a little gotcha in here. I want to play 1394 01:24:24,060 --> 01:24:29,730 the whole commercial, which is a buck 39 which is a buck to one 1395 01:24:29,730 --> 01:24:37,680 minute and 29 seconds book and listen to it and there's 1396 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:40,740 something there's something peculiar in here that just I've 1397 01:24:41,160 --> 01:24:43,560 been trying to catch his eye because I've seen it a number of 1398 01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:47,520 times on television every time I hear it, I go this What a play. 1399 01:24:48,870 --> 01:24:52,020 Let's check this. Living with HIV. I learned I can stay 1400 01:24:52,020 --> 01:24:54,870 undetectable with fewer medicines. That's why I switched 1401 01:24:54,870 --> 01:24:58,350 to de vida. Vida was for some adults who are starting to HIV 1402 01:24:58,350 --> 01:25:02,430 one treatment or replacing The current HIV one regimen detect 1403 01:25:02,430 --> 01:25:06,600 this. No other complete HIV pill uses fewer medicines to help 1404 01:25:06,600 --> 01:25:11,460 keep you undetectable than Vivado. detect this. Most HIV 1405 01:25:11,460 --> 01:25:14,700 pills contain three or four medicines to follow is as 1406 01:25:14,700 --> 01:25:18,780 effective with just two. Research shows people who take 1407 01:25:18,780 --> 01:25:22,650 HIV treatment as prescribed and get to and stay undetectable can 1408 01:25:22,650 --> 01:25:25,860 no longer transmit HIV through sex. Don't take the bottle if 1409 01:25:25,860 --> 01:25:28,020 you're allergic to its ingredients. Or if you take to 1410 01:25:28,050 --> 01:25:31,350 Adelaide, taking the bottle with to Petalite can cause serious or 1411 01:25:31,350 --> 01:25:34,470 life threatening side effects. Hepatitis B can become harder to 1412 01:25:34,470 --> 01:25:37,140 treat while on tobacco.

Well, first of all, as you detect this game 1426 01:26:21,780 --> 01:26:25,650 detect this is the idea is to make you undetectable if you get 1427 01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:26,970 if you have Asia v 1428 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,310 this is what the prep does. The prep does all 1429 01:26:30,870 --> 01:26:34,260 while they make this comment in there you can't transmit even 1430 01:26:34,260 --> 01:26:38,280 though you're undetectable. Even though you have HIV, you're 1431 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:44,880 undetectable which is cool. And and you can't transmit HIV per 1432 01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:50,250 se. And they say this in every one of these ads for say 1433 01:26:50,250 --> 01:26:52,890 interesting. Here's the sub clip. You can hear it here. 1434 01:26:53,129 --> 01:26:56,489 Oh second sub clip Yes. Thank you make 1435 01:26:56,490 --> 01:27:00,090 a tip treatment as prescribed and get to and stay undetectable 1436 01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:02,310 can no longer transmit HIV through sex. 1437 01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:12,150 No through sex. No, I said per se no through sex. Sorry, maybe 1438 01:27:12,150 --> 01:27:14,610 I misunderstood. I heard you cannot transmit well, 1439 01:27:14,640 --> 01:27:18,780 okay, you know if they say through sex. That's interesting, 1440 01:27:18,780 --> 01:27:22,530 because the AD This is the one commercial where it was unclear. 1441 01:27:22,530 --> 01:27:26,610 The other one I'm telling you, she says per se it was very 1442 01:27:26,610 --> 01:27:27,720 clear. I think 1443 01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:35,850 she says per sex. I think you're incorrect. Play it again. The 1444 01:27:35,850 --> 01:27:37,410 sub clip. Yeah, 1445 01:27:37,469 --> 01:27:41,309 take HIV treatment as prescribed and get to and stay undetectable 1446 01:27:41,339 --> 01:27:43,499 can no longer transmit HIV through sex 1447 01:27:43,530 --> 01:27:46,050 through so she's saying through sex. She clearly saying, 1448 01:27:46,620 --> 01:27:50,220 Okay, I heard through sex that time. Of course. Now I gotta go 1449 01:27:50,220 --> 01:27:52,950 back to find the original commercial or I thought she said 1450 01:27:52,950 --> 01:27:58,620 per se. Well, now I'm Roseanne Roseanna. Danna, I fall right in 1451 01:27:58,620 --> 01:28:02,250 that same category. Me and Jeff Jarvis. Oh, no. 1452 01:28:05,010 --> 01:28:07,620 That's an opening right there. Me and Jeff Jarvis. That's just 1453 01:28:07,620 --> 01:28:13,440 an opening anytime we can do that. Okay, well, let me switch 1454 01:28:13,440 --> 01:28:17,640 it up for a second here. And speaking of little things, you 1455 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:21,720 might hear someone say, there was this little, little little 1456 01:28:21,750 --> 01:28:26,790 itty bitty tidbit that was picked up, which I didn't pick 1457 01:28:26,790 --> 01:28:30,450 up but someone pointed me to this, Kevin O'Leary, you know 1458 01:28:30,450 --> 01:28:32,490 who that is Kevin O'Leary. He's the guy 1459 01:28:32,519 --> 01:28:35,219 who was one of the guys to sit stare at the shark on 1460 01:28:35,310 --> 01:28:38,010 Shark Tank. Yeah. So high, you know, yeah, you 1461 01:28:38,010 --> 01:28:39,630 got a good idea, but I don't 1462 01:28:39,630 --> 01:28:44,280 like I missed a wonderful, that's who he is. So Kevin 1463 01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:51,360 O'Leary is he I guess he had a PR deal with FTX. I don't think 1464 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:56,940 he invested any money. But he, he had some kind of deal to 1465 01:28:56,940 --> 01:29:01,800 promote FTX and I believe that number was $12 million. And so 1466 01:29:01,830 --> 01:29:05,700 he feels very comfortable going around because he wasn't an 1467 01:29:05,700 --> 01:29:09,810 idiot that really lost money in the investment, but maybe he did 1468 01:29:09,810 --> 01:29:13,290 is unclear. But he's the only person who's going around and 1469 01:29:13,290 --> 01:29:18,810 talking on CNBC. Now, what you'll hear in this 41 second 1470 01:29:18,810 --> 01:29:24,600 clip, there's one little thing here that coincides so weirdly, 1471 01:29:24,630 --> 01:29:29,610 with a very newsworthy event, let me see if you can catch the 1472 01:29:29,610 --> 01:29:32,670 odd name that is mentioned in this quick clip. 1473 01:29:33,150 --> 01:29:35,880 I obviously know all the institutional investors in this 1474 01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:39,900 deal. We all look like idiots. Let's put that on the table. 1475 01:29:39,930 --> 01:29:43,170 Okay. We relied on each other's due diligence, but we also 1476 01:29:43,170 --> 01:29:47,640 relied on another investment theme that I felt drove a lot of 1477 01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:51,690 interest in FTX sandbagging, fried is an American. His 1478 01:29:51,690 --> 01:29:56,040 parents are American compliance lawyers. There were no other 1479 01:29:56,070 --> 01:29:59,970 American large exchanges to invest in if you wanted to enter 1480 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:04,230 invest in crypto as an infrastructure play. So many of 1481 01:30:04,230 --> 01:30:05,190 us said, Wait a second, 1482 01:30:05,460 --> 01:30:06,930 who's coming to this deal? We 1483 01:30:06,930 --> 01:30:09,600 knew, for example, sounds like this was a group thing. 1484 01:30:11,820 --> 01:30:13,170 Did you know there was no CFO to 1485 01:30:13,170 --> 01:30:20,820 hear it? I eager. Yes. And FTX blew up the same weekend. Iger 1486 01:30:21,210 --> 01:30:26,370 was brought back as CEO of Disney. of Disney. Yeah. 1487 01:30:29,100 --> 01:30:31,680 Yeah, he mentioned I agree he was stepped on. Yeah. 1488 01:30:31,710 --> 01:30:35,220 And that never came back. The Iger never came back in in that 1489 01:30:35,220 --> 01:30:37,530 interview. Now, it was well known that 1490 01:30:37,530 --> 01:30:40,110 I raised me I will like know what's going on there was Iger. 1491 01:30:40,650 --> 01:30:40,950 Well, I 1492 01:30:40,980 --> 01:30:46,590 don't expect CNBC crew to actually ask any questions by 1493 01:30:46,590 --> 01:30:46,710 the 1494 01:30:46,710 --> 01:30:50,760 way the way he the way he was talking, right? It sounds like a 1495 01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:55,650 guy who put money in and day and all we all had to do diligence 1496 01:30:55,650 --> 01:30:58,350 these guys were compliance lawyers and all these everybody 1497 01:30:58,350 --> 01:31:01,320 we needed some in the United States. We needed a play. That 1498 01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:03,600 was a you know, an infrastructure play. And this 1499 01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:07,020 was the one it was the USA. Yeah, it sounds like he put 1500 01:31:07,020 --> 01:31:08,160 money in. So 1501 01:31:08,190 --> 01:31:12,900 one of one of my friends who was top a top person and Disney 1502 01:31:13,260 --> 01:31:17,070 didn't know about this change until Saturday that weekend 1503 01:31:17,070 --> 01:31:21,510 either. This was a very very abrupt change to bring Iger back 1504 01:31:21,510 --> 01:31:23,250 to it to CEO of Disney. 1505 01:31:24,300 --> 01:31:29,040 Oh, wait, wait, let me guess. You're thinking that I grew last 1506 01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:32,190 his ass maybe and had to go back to work. 1507 01:31:32,220 --> 01:31:35,460 That was that's the logical thing to me. Or like, Oh, this 1508 01:31:35,460 --> 01:31:39,840 is so embarrassing. We can't have Bob wrapped up in this. Or 1509 01:31:40,830 --> 01:31:43,590 Holy crap. Disney's got a hole in it. Let's cover it up with 1510 01:31:43,590 --> 01:31:47,160 some FTO oops. I don't know. I mean, it could be anything. But 1511 01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:50,520 the fact that he was mentioned as Iger was coming to this deal, 1512 01:31:50,790 --> 01:31:55,650 put deal. The investment deal was a big buyout deal, but he 1513 01:31:55,650 --> 01:31:59,250 talks about a deal Uygurs coming to this deal. So this was a 1514 01:31:59,250 --> 01:32:03,180 consortium of investors it's very poor CNBC, a very poor 1515 01:32:03,450 --> 01:32:07,950 interviewing skills and that's your Ross, Andrew Ross, scrotum, 1516 01:32:07,950 --> 01:32:10,740 whatever his name is. That guy's pathetic. 1517 01:32:12,150 --> 01:32:16,200 But I agree their interviewers are not good. But what I mean 1518 01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:19,560 they lost their best interviews it was the honey money and then 1519 01:32:19,590 --> 01:32:21,090 what's Money Money? 1520 01:32:21,900 --> 01:32:28,290 Money, money. Money, honey. And the other one I like honey money 1521 01:32:28,290 --> 01:32:31,170 that's even better. What other one and what other ones did they 1522 01:32:31,170 --> 01:32:31,740 lose? 1523 01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:36,060 The one that's the Council on Foreign Relations. Young younger 1524 01:32:36,060 --> 01:32:39,030 ones. She's the one I worked with when I was just doing spots 1525 01:32:39,030 --> 01:32:44,940 for CNBC. Trump hater and she's like, Oh, 1526 01:32:44,940 --> 01:32:50,670 that. That's everybody. Trump. Hey, where is she now then? CNN, 1527 01:32:50,670 --> 01:32:53,610 you mean Erin? Yeah. Erin Burnett, 1528 01:32:54,090 --> 01:32:57,480 Erin Burnett. She was a good interviewer. You know, and 1529 01:32:57,480 --> 01:33:00,510 what happened to her because once they killed the fat guy, 1530 01:33:00,540 --> 01:33:03,450 her co host because they killed him that killed that guy. T was 1531 01:33:03,480 --> 01:33:09,120 when he was 50. Who the guy who died her co host on CNBC. 1532 01:33:09,450 --> 01:33:12,630 When she was on CNBC. She had her own show. Oh, man, she 1533 01:33:12,630 --> 01:33:14,790 did the morning show. No, she 1534 01:33:14,790 --> 01:33:18,900 did it. She was doing an afternoon show that I worked on. 1535 01:33:18,900 --> 01:33:20,850 It was like a two or something like that. 1536 01:33:21,240 --> 01:33:28,020 Hold on a second. It was the co host on CNBC this morning. Come 1537 01:33:28,020 --> 01:33:30,960 on what was what was that? What was that call 1538 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:32,340 to look her up and look at her bio. 1539 01:33:32,429 --> 01:33:37,019 I'm looking at her bio. But it was the it was people know I'm 1540 01:33:37,019 --> 01:33:41,249 not mixing people up squawk on the street co anchor of squawk 1541 01:33:41,249 --> 01:33:45,989 on the street. Here we go. It was mark something rather. Mark 1542 01:33:45,989 --> 01:33:48,629 Haines and Mark Mark Haines. Oh, I 1543 01:33:48,630 --> 01:33:49,950 don't even know who that is 1544 01:33:49,980 --> 01:33:52,680 the fat guy who was her co host that guy. 1545 01:33:53,460 --> 01:33:55,260 fat shaming a dead man. 1546 01:33:56,970 --> 01:34:01,200 I mean, look, I'm saying they killed him and I'm just trying 1547 01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:04,230 to give I'm not trying to say that he died because he was fat. 1548 01:34:05,730 --> 01:34:07,500 Let me see Mark Haines. 1549 01:34:10,950 --> 01:34:15,000 Yeah, so no, I remember him. Yeah, Mark. Yes, Squawk 1550 01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:18,570 Box, and then squawk on the street in 2011. And he keeled 1551 01:34:18,570 --> 01:34:24,030 over. And then she then she became bad. She just she was no 1552 01:34:24,030 --> 01:34:27,480 good. She can't carry the show herself is my feeling. And if 1553 01:34:27,480 --> 01:34:30,120 you watch her whenever she asks a question, Tina mentioned this 1554 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:34,050 to me. She talks her head like a cocker spaniel. Yes, she does 1555 01:34:34,050 --> 01:34:35,370 and it gets really irritating. 1556 01:34:35,730 --> 01:34:43,200 Like she's looking for some sound. Dog Whistle Okay, anyway, 1557 01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:46,020 those two are out and they're suit and then they had the other 1558 01:34:46,020 --> 01:34:49,740 girl that looked like Goldie Hawn and she quit when some they 1559 01:34:49,740 --> 01:34:52,440 lost a lot of people because they didn't mean they never paid 1560 01:34:52,440 --> 01:34:56,940 well. And once Fox moved in on the territory into Fox Business, 1561 01:34:56,940 --> 01:34:59,970 even though Fox Business stinks, that's where the honeymoon 1562 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:04,140 Anyway, but it took a bunch of people with it, because they pay 1563 01:35:04,140 --> 01:35:04,680 more. 1564 01:35:05,220 --> 01:35:12,870 Yeah, of course.

So it got 1594 01:36:59,220 --> 01:37:03,480 our attention. And it's possible that the troll counting 1595 01:37:03,480 --> 01:37:11,340 mechanism doesn't work. But let's give it a shot. Yes, it's 1596 01:37:11,340 --> 01:37:13,680 a lucky number today. 1888 1597 01:37:15,030 --> 01:37:18,450 to Sunday, yeah.

Hard to believe. I know, I have 1607 01:37:53,400 --> 01:37:59,010 confirmation five years ago. I don't want to say that we were 1608 01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:02,490 ahead of the times or anything, but there you go. And we were 1609 01:38:02,490 --> 01:38:05,760 also one of the first to be put on the block list as a bunch of 1610 01:38:05,790 --> 01:38:10,260 Nazih keh keh keh Quadroon. So there you go.

And just to follow Adam and no agenda social.com 1614 01:38:20,490 --> 01:38:23,040 Jhansi Dvorak at no agenda social.com. These are not email 1615 01:38:23,040 --> 01:38:24,870 addresses, if you don't know what Mastodon is. Go over to 1616 01:38:24,870 --> 01:38:28,230 Mastodon go to John Mastodon, and find out what 1617 01:38:28,230 --> 01:38:30,060 it is ask Mr. Mastodon. 1618 01:38:31,170 --> 01:38:34,560 Ask John himself. Oh, you know, it was really lame. And I like 1619 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:38,010 her, you know? Annalee Newitz you know her reporter? Yeah, I 1620 01:38:38,010 --> 01:38:41,670 do actually know her. She you like me? I used to come on 1621 01:38:41,670 --> 01:38:42,450 silicon and spin. 1622 01:38:42,540 --> 01:38:47,010 Yeah. And she used to that she did a big article on me for Time 1623 01:38:47,010 --> 01:38:51,690 magazine. When podcasting was just blowing up. And I really 1624 01:38:51,690 --> 01:38:54,300 liked him. We kept in touch and she interviewed me several years 1625 01:38:54,300 --> 01:38:59,490 later about something else. But she's gone kind of woke like 1626 01:38:59,490 --> 01:39:02,070 super woke. She's one of the journalists that I follow on my 1627 01:39:02,070 --> 01:39:07,830 secret to secret account. And so now the John Mastodon meme was 1628 01:39:07,830 --> 01:39:13,290 hilarious. But oh, no, we had to turn it into Joan mastodon. 1629 01:39:13,620 --> 01:39:17,700 Because you know, we can't have it can't have it be a man. And 1630 01:39:17,700 --> 01:39:21,750 she's pushing that is a little disappointing. That's a shame, 1631 01:39:21,780 --> 01:39:27,090 Joan. Mastadon so it's like why pretty sharp does this I think 1632 01:39:27,090 --> 01:39:29,940 she still is sharp, but it's just like come on. That was an 1633 01:39:30,660 --> 01:39:34,170 unnecessary maybe she's just being a satirical now. No, I 1634 01:39:34,170 --> 01:39:36,900 followed her account for a bit she's she's kind of gone a 1635 01:39:36,900 --> 01:39:40,530 little overboard. Anyway, this 1636 01:39:40,560 --> 01:39:42,600 with the spike protein does do. 1637 01:39:45,540 --> 01:39:50,160 Really, I'm reliably informed. Thank you very much trolls. Good 1638 01:39:50,160 --> 01:39:52,110 to have you here. Good to have you on the mastodon. We 1639 01:39:52,110 --> 01:39:55,260 appreciate that. And thank you for being a relay for being a 1640 01:39:55,260 --> 01:39:57,840 driving force and for being there early. Knowing how it 1641 01:39:57,840 --> 01:40:01,770 works. We're not surprised by anything or Are we? Of course, 1642 01:40:01,770 --> 01:40:06,780 we also want to thank the artists who bring us fabulous, 1643 01:40:06,810 --> 01:40:11,430 fabulous. Oh, by the way, I wanted to mention, whenever I 1644 01:40:11,430 --> 01:40:14,940 post the show on no agenda social.com, I will post 1645 01:40:14,940 --> 01:40:19,560 something that says, no agenda episode. It'll be 1513 today, 1646 01:40:19,890 --> 01:40:25,320 comment thread. You can you can respond to that thread and it 1647 01:40:25,320 --> 01:40:28,830 will show up in all of the podcasting 2.0 apps where you 1648 01:40:28,830 --> 01:40:31,950 can also respond. So it's like cross app, you can be in one 1649 01:40:31,950 --> 01:40:35,910 app, see a comment, comment on it, and someone else in another 1650 01:40:35,910 --> 01:40:39,360 app will see it as something kind of magical that we put 1651 01:40:39,360 --> 01:40:42,630 together and it works on Mastodon so you don't even have 1652 01:40:42,630 --> 01:40:44,730 to have the app. What you comment there will show up in 1653 01:40:44,730 --> 01:40:48,030 the app. Just want to say that. Now. Let's look at the artwork 1654 01:40:48,030 --> 01:40:53,460 for episode 1512. And bring it up here we titled that one 1655 01:40:53,460 --> 01:40:57,450 cashes criminal boy is that ever talked about that in a moment? 1656 01:40:57,660 --> 01:41:03,660 And this was brought to us by Sir Paul couture. And I think we 1657 01:41:03,690 --> 01:41:08,370 we unilaterally universally right away. We're like, this is 1658 01:41:08,370 --> 01:41:12,450 kind of the one that wasn't even anything competing with it. It's 1659 01:41:12,450 --> 01:41:13,230 the sale. There's 1660 01:41:13,230 --> 01:41:17,190 a lot of cheesecake for some reason. There was some nice 1661 01:41:17,190 --> 01:41:21,390 simple pieces I like that could do it. We didn't really argue 1662 01:41:21,390 --> 01:41:24,330 against it. I mean, couture. This is all licensed art. I 1663 01:41:24,330 --> 01:41:27,180 should mention anyone who has some complaints about it. Yeah. 1664 01:41:27,870 --> 01:41:30,870 The Santa's running into the snow with a couple of weirdos. 1665 01:41:31,290 --> 01:41:36,240 Um, we had picked a green one. There's two versions of it. We 1666 01:41:36,240 --> 01:41:38,400 picked one with more green and I believe 1667 01:41:38,880 --> 01:41:43,800 yes, we did specifically more was more green and the stars 1668 01:41:43,800 --> 01:41:46,290 were lit up a little bit more in the background. Yeah, 1669 01:41:46,290 --> 01:41:48,750 and they did a second one for some I don't know why from 1670 01:41:48,780 --> 01:41:54,150 higher contrast maybe. But yeah, but tour can throw this stuff 1671 01:41:54,150 --> 01:41:58,500 together pretty well. And it wasn't there was a couple of 1672 01:41:58,500 --> 01:42:01,680 things. He also did his piece of cheesecake that was kind of 1673 01:42:01,680 --> 01:42:06,600 cute. Very 50s looking one called Miss Claus verse xx It 1674 01:42:06,600 --> 01:42:09,660 was weird because it was a woman with a beard and 1675 01:42:10,170 --> 01:42:12,540 No, no not I'm not talking about the one with the beard. That's 1676 01:42:12,540 --> 01:42:15,990 that wasn't him. That was capitalist agenda. You're right. 1677 01:42:16,020 --> 01:42:18,450 You're right, which we did a woman with a beard and a mic 1678 01:42:18,450 --> 01:42:21,300 first thought was where there's the Eurovision Song Contest 1679 01:42:21,300 --> 01:42:23,640 wrapped up in a martini glass? Yes. 1680 01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:25,020 Yes. Correct. 1681 01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:26,190 And 1682 01:42:28,770 --> 01:42:30,090 what else? What 1683 01:42:30,630 --> 01:42:32,430 was just like it was decorated, but 1684 01:42:32,430 --> 01:42:36,000 it was you made a you made a real pitch at a certain point 1685 01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:42,990 there for me see what was it? Oh, a nick pickle. You made a 1686 01:42:42,990 --> 01:42:43,800 pitch for Nick pick. 1687 01:42:43,800 --> 01:42:47,550 Yes. Nick pickle was very funny. I thought it was the funniest 1688 01:42:47,550 --> 01:42:52,830 piece. It was silly. And it had said Nick pickle on there. And 1689 01:42:52,950 --> 01:42:57,450 you and who is dude did that Nick pickle was done by Taunton? 1690 01:42:57,900 --> 01:43:01,020 Thompson, which would I think would have sealed the deal for 1691 01:43:01,020 --> 01:43:03,960 her for the best artist of 2022? 1692 01:43:05,430 --> 01:43:08,370 Well, I was I wasn't taking any of that into account. 1693 01:43:08,460 --> 01:43:11,550 I always say you always say you if you're ever a judge, you take 1694 01:43:11,550 --> 01:43:13,320 everything evenly with Darren O'Neill, who 1695 01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:15,240 I hate. That's the only that's the only brown 1696 01:43:15,270 --> 01:43:19,740 if you didn't hate him he had won again this year. So Nick 1697 01:43:19,740 --> 01:43:24,030 pickle I just thought was funny. It was a pickle with a Santa 1698 01:43:24,030 --> 01:43:29,370 Claus outfit on and it was a pickle. Pickle. Did I know he 1699 01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:31,320 that way?

So I know kind of identify who you are. As a man, all 2016 02:04:29,640 --> 02:04:33,570 right, I'm sure you're out there somewhere. Because when Africa 2017 02:04:33,570 --> 02:04:37,440 succeeds, the United States succeeds. Quite frankly, the 2018 02:04:37,440 --> 02:04:42,120 whole world succeeds as well. Contributing to every step began 2019 02:04:42,120 --> 02:04:47,460 on day one to help save lives and combat global at night. In 2020 02:04:47,460 --> 02:04:51,750 America, and nations of all of Africa global adaptation efforts 2021 02:04:51,780 --> 02:04:55,920 DVD business ties in shrining protection for workers, both 2022 02:04:55,920 --> 02:04:59,970 across Africa and in the United States diaspora owned businesses 2023 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:04,440 continents vibrant and growing urban economies from the port of 2024 02:05:04,440 --> 02:05:09,870 Kochi, excuse me from the port of Cujo know, to me just 2025 02:05:09,870 --> 02:05:14,310 announced discussions are first calm for compact $600 billion, 2026 02:05:14,880 --> 02:05:18,060 mobilize the $8 billion in public and private finance tough 2027 02:05:18,060 --> 02:05:21,900 South Africa replace coal fired power plants with renewable 2028 02:05:21,900 --> 02:05:24,930 energy sources and develop cutting edge energy solutions 2029 02:05:24,930 --> 02:05:26,490 like clean hydrogen. 2030 02:05:26,550 --> 02:05:31,050 Wow, man, clean hydrogen. Oh, there you go. Another 10 years 2031 02:05:31,050 --> 02:05:33,690 Africa, don't worry, it's coming. It's coming coming to 2032 02:05:33,690 --> 02:05:34,050 you. 2033 02:05:34,830 --> 02:05:37,620 They're throwing a lot of money at Africa. It's just obviously 2034 02:05:37,620 --> 02:05:40,380 the back to Chinese office not going to work. But let's do the 2035 02:05:40,380 --> 02:05:45,870 second one, which is maybe funnier in its entirety, 2036 02:05:46,080 --> 02:05:51,240 investing in Africa's people. As I said at the top of this forum, 2037 02:05:51,270 --> 02:05:56,040 Cisco Systems and cyber cyber bastad diaspore own small 2038 02:05:56,040 --> 02:06:00,540 business is jointly announced the $800 million in new 2039 02:06:00,540 --> 02:06:04,350 contracts to protect African countries from cyber including 2040 02:06:04,350 --> 02:06:08,670 providing mobile payment services. For more micro small 2041 02:06:08,670 --> 02:06:11,790 and medium sized businesses across Africa, General Electric 2042 02:06:11,790 --> 02:06:17,100 and Standard Bank $15 billion in new deals will provide $80 2043 02:06:17,100 --> 02:06:20,700 million to improve health care services and provide access to 2044 02:06:20,700 --> 02:06:24,630 cutting edge health care equipment. All together. The 2045 02:06:24,630 --> 02:06:30,360 Forum has spurred more than $15 billion in new deals, which will 2046 02:06:30,360 --> 02:06:35,490 turn lift up and improve the lives of people all across the 2047 02:06:35,490 --> 02:06:38,550 continent. And this is just the beginning patient today. Thank 2048 02:06:38,550 --> 02:06:41,340 you all may God protect our troops. Thank you very, very 2049 02:06:41,340 --> 02:07:04,200 much. Thanks. Okay, 2050 02:07:07,020 --> 02:07:10,200 so that's Biden's run down to zero. 2051 02:07:10,200 --> 02:07:13,020 Do you mind if I just interject with a little little clip here 2052 02:07:13,020 --> 02:07:16,410 for a second before you go to the next one? Because I really 2053 02:07:16,410 --> 02:07:19,680 liked how and you're absolutely right. I mean, all of a sudden 2054 02:07:19,680 --> 02:07:25,680 we have this USA for Africa with its back. And and it's Africa, 2055 02:07:25,710 --> 02:07:29,670 because Africa is a continent. It's not a country. And so 2056 02:07:29,670 --> 02:07:32,250 there's you know, I think there's a lot of countries in 2057 02:07:32,250 --> 02:07:34,770 Africa probably wondering, well, who's going to get the money? 2058 02:07:34,770 --> 02:07:39,300 Where's it really going? But the way Deutsche Avella position 2059 02:07:39,300 --> 02:07:42,150 this, and again, it's only about Africa, Africa, not the 2060 02:07:42,150 --> 02:07:46,680 individual countries, which is I think anyone in any African 2061 02:07:46,680 --> 02:07:49,560 country is like, Well, these guys are a holes. Listen to how 2062 02:07:49,560 --> 02:07:52,680 they presented this new push towards Africa. 2063 02:07:52,770 --> 02:07:56,310 I stand before you as the president, United States than a 2064 02:07:56,310 --> 02:08:01,500 proud American. I also stand before you as the son of a man 2065 02:08:01,500 --> 02:08:02,070 from Africa. 2066 02:08:08,490 --> 02:08:10,470 I thought it was from Indonesia, but okay. 2067 02:08:12,360 --> 02:08:15,540 The blood of Africa runs through our family. And so for us, the 2068 02:08:15,540 --> 02:08:20,040 bonds between our countries or continents are deeply first. 2069 02:08:20,910 --> 02:08:25,380 That was a former US President Barack Obama at the 2014 US 2070 02:08:25,500 --> 02:08:29,130 Africa summit that that was fair to say that America's relations 2071 02:08:29,130 --> 02:08:32,550 with the continent have been warmer, but offensive remarks 2072 02:08:32,550 --> 02:08:36,180 about African countries made by the former leader Donald Trump 2073 02:08:36,360 --> 02:08:37,980 took them to a new low. 2074 02:08:38,339 --> 02:08:41,279 Do you remember what the offensive comments were by 2075 02:08:41,279 --> 02:08:44,159 former President Donald Trump who took the relations with 2076 02:08:44,159 --> 02:08:46,319 America and Africa to a new low? 2077 02:08:46,860 --> 02:08:49,860 Well, they assumed when they were talking about shithole 2078 02:08:49,860 --> 02:08:53,160 countries, that it was about them exactly. 2079 02:08:53,190 --> 02:08:56,670 Nations with the continents have been warmer, but offensive 2080 02:08:56,670 --> 02:09:00,390 remarks about African countries made by the former leader Donald 2081 02:09:00,390 --> 02:09:04,800 Trump took them to a new low. Now US President Joe Biden has 2082 02:09:04,800 --> 02:09:08,520 told African leaders that his country is committed to Africa's 2083 02:09:08,520 --> 02:09:12,390 future, the US is looking to position itself as a reliable 2084 02:09:12,390 --> 02:09:16,290 trade partner, including calling for the African Union to become 2085 02:09:16,380 --> 02:09:18,630 a permanent member of the G 20. 2086 02:09:19,710 --> 02:09:24,390 shared success and opportunity. Because when Africa succeeds, 2087 02:09:24,720 --> 02:09:28,260 the United States succeeds quite frankly, the whole world 2088 02:09:28,260 --> 02:09:29,400 succeeds as well. 2089 02:09:29,760 --> 02:09:33,090 Yeah, there's another block for you the African block 2090 02:09:35,790 --> 02:09:43,860 bull crap all right. So let's let's listen to this before, 2091 02:09:44,190 --> 02:09:49,800 before I played it to actually serious clips. This is Biden. 2092 02:09:50,520 --> 02:09:53,940 Really out of it. He can barely speak. He's talking to some 2093 02:09:53,940 --> 02:09:58,140 veterans in Delaware, about you know, their service and he's 2094 02:09:58,140 --> 02:10:01,680 like, half asleep half in the bag. This is horrible. But then 2095 02:10:01,680 --> 02:10:05,520 he but when he's like this, this is when he comes up with made up 2096 02:10:05,520 --> 02:10:10,170 stories. This is the Biden bogus story and it's a generation 2097 02:10:10,170 --> 02:10:16,230 represented by you ray that doesn't look for accolades. You 2098 02:10:16,230 --> 02:10:19,650 know, I my dad when I got elected vice president, he said 2099 02:10:19,650 --> 02:10:23,670 Joey, Uncle Frank fought in the Battle of the Bulge. She's not 2100 02:10:23,670 --> 02:10:26,430 faring very well now, not because the battle the bolts, 2101 02:10:26,430 --> 02:10:29,100 but he said, and he won the Purple Heart, and he never 2102 02:10:29,100 --> 02:10:33,510 received it. He never ever got it. You think he could help and 2103 02:10:33,510 --> 02:10:36,960 get it will surprise him. So I got to the Purple Heart. He had 2104 02:10:36,960 --> 02:10:41,190 won the battle of Bose and I remember he came over the house 2105 02:10:41,220 --> 02:10:43,800 and I came out and he said presented to him okay with the 2106 02:10:43,800 --> 02:10:47,160 family there. I said Uncle Frank, you won this and I want 2107 02:10:47,160 --> 02:10:49,980 to finish it. I don't want the damn thing. I'm serious. He 2108 02:10:49,980 --> 02:10:52,680 said, I don't want it. I said, Listen, man, Uncle Frankie 2109 02:10:52,680 --> 02:10:55,740 earned it. He said, Yeah, but the others died. The others 2110 02:10:55,740 --> 02:10:59,220 died. I moved. I don't want it. 2111 02:10:59,970 --> 02:11:02,670 Yes, this is a bogus story for many reasons. 2112 02:11:03,269 --> 02:11:08,279 Yeah. Well, there's two reasons. Mainly. When was Biden first 2113 02:11:08,279 --> 02:11:14,489 vice president? What? 2006? No. 2008 2008 He's Vice President 2114 02:11:14,489 --> 02:11:19,409 2008. His dad died in 2002. I know. On September so How's his 2115 02:11:19,409 --> 02:11:21,569 dad telling him this when he's vice president? 2116 02:11:22,680 --> 02:11:25,500 Joey from the grave. It's your daddy. And so 2117 02:11:25,530 --> 02:11:29,400 and then Uncle Joe or does other Uncle Fred whatever his name is? 2118 02:11:29,460 --> 02:11:31,410 He actually died in 99. 2119 02:11:33,780 --> 02:11:39,420 That's my bet. That's the punch line. Right? Yeah, maybe made. 2120 02:11:39,930 --> 02:11:43,080 And did he ever receive said Purple Heart? Or was 2121 02:11:43,080 --> 02:11:46,020 that a bad? Oh, no. I made it dug a hole throw in his grave? i 2122 02:11:46,290 --> 02:11:51,480 It's this kind of making stories up which has been a earmark of 2123 02:11:51,480 --> 02:11:59,370 the of Trump. Of Biden more than anybody. Yeah. Forever talking 2124 02:11:59,370 --> 02:12:03,450 about, you know, getting just as bad as Hillary getting shot at 2125 02:12:03,450 --> 02:12:07,740 like she wants claimed. Under No buddy 2126 02:12:07,800 --> 02:12:08,670 in Costco, 2127 02:12:08,850 --> 02:12:11,820 I look at all these fact checking site. I don't see 2128 02:12:11,820 --> 02:12:13,980 anything calling him out for any of this stuff. 2129 02:12:14,100 --> 02:12:18,060 Well, no, he's just sad. We're not going to do that. Oh, we're 2130 02:12:18,060 --> 02:12:21,600 just busy yelling at Elon Musk for deplatforming us for 2131 02:12:21,600 --> 02:12:25,170 suspending our accounts. This is this is the outrage, not the 2132 02:12:25,170 --> 02:12:25,800 lying. 2133 02:12:26,820 --> 02:12:29,130 So I do have two serious clips where he's actually talking 2134 02:12:29,130 --> 02:12:33,420 about the internet and Africa and how much money we're we're 2135 02:12:33,450 --> 02:12:37,200 going to spend in Africa to get them all jacked up on the 2136 02:12:37,200 --> 02:12:39,690 internet. Let's go Biden, Africa, internet, 2137 02:12:39,840 --> 02:12:43,830 digital transformation with Africa, working with Congress to 2138 02:12:43,830 --> 02:12:48,810 invest $350 billion to facilitate more than almost a 2139 02:12:48,810 --> 02:12:52,140 half a billion dollars in financing to make sure people 2140 02:12:52,140 --> 02:12:55,290 across Africa can participate in a digital economy. 2141 02:12:56,490 --> 02:13:00,390 I have something I got info on this. I'm waiting. Did you look 2142 02:13:00,390 --> 02:13:04,260 at Did you hear what he said? Yes. $350 billion. So people in 2143 02:13:04,500 --> 02:13:05,730 Africa can notice 2144 02:13:05,730 --> 02:13:12,000 a facilitate? Yes. To loaning 50 What is it? The voice of the 7x 2145 02:13:12,510 --> 02:13:15,840 amount? It takes a 10 bucks to sell somebody? I think for $1 2146 02:13:15,840 --> 02:13:17,970 What What kind of business man is this? 2147 02:13:19,440 --> 02:13:22,020 Are you trying to tell me you you thought the US government 2148 02:13:22,020 --> 02:13:23,970 was ever prudent at spending money? 2149 02:13:26,760 --> 02:13:30,360 I am remiss, okay, I have part two of this clip you want to 2150 02:13:30,360 --> 02:13:31,110 play before we play 2151 02:13:31,140 --> 02:13:34,320 I do gotta close partnerships like no collaboration between 2152 02:13:34,320 --> 02:13:39,630 Microsoft and visa to bring in Internet access to 5 million 2153 02:13:39,630 --> 02:13:43,140 Africans part of Microsoft's commitment to bring access to 2154 02:13:43,290 --> 02:13:49,140 100 million people across Africa by the end of year 2025. That 2155 02:13:49,140 --> 02:13:52,950 means that means programs to train African entrepreneurs with 2156 02:13:52,950 --> 02:13:57,540 a focus on women entrepreneurs to code and build skills that 2157 02:13:57,540 --> 02:14:01,500 need to start their own businesses to secure good paying 2158 02:14:01,500 --> 02:14:05,280 jobs and technology with technology firms. And this will 2159 02:14:05,280 --> 02:14:09,090 include partnerships between African American African 2160 02:14:09,090 --> 02:14:12,510 American companies to provide cybersecurity services to make 2161 02:14:12,510 --> 02:14:15,990 sure Africa's digital environment is reliable and 2162 02:14:15,990 --> 02:14:16,680 secure. 2163 02:14:17,070 --> 02:14:19,560 Alright, so I had the same clip with the second part with the 2164 02:14:19,560 --> 02:14:22,380 partnerships that Microsoft partnerships and I think that's 2165 02:14:22,500 --> 02:14:26,220 interesting because I went to look up the visa partnership or 2166 02:14:26,220 --> 02:14:29,070 as he said, Visa, whatever he said I 2167 02:14:29,070 --> 02:14:32,400 think he's thought I think that what he said was not visa he 2168 02:14:32,400 --> 02:14:35,340 was he said visa because visa is in this deal. 2169 02:14:35,880 --> 02:14:40,230 Okay, well, it sounds like he said visa or something. Or some 2170 02:14:40,230 --> 02:14:41,640 African country now he 2171 02:14:41,640 --> 02:14:46,830 can't reach some African guys a turnip. Okay, he's a turnip visa 2172 02:14:46,860 --> 02:14:50,910 will invest in Africa's digital transformation, and has pledged 2173 02:14:50,940 --> 02:14:55,860 to invest $1 billion in Africa to accelerate the digital 2174 02:14:55,860 --> 02:14:59,160 transformation. And this announcement was made during the 2175 02:14:59,160 --> 02:15:01,620 US Africa Isn't this forum in Washington on Wednesday, 2176 02:15:01,620 --> 02:15:06,330 December 14, visa will use the money to scale operations, 2177 02:15:06,510 --> 02:15:09,930 deploy new technologies and deepen collaboration with its 2178 02:15:09,930 --> 02:15:13,380 partners in the next five years. Those include merchants, 2179 02:15:13,380 --> 02:15:16,590 governments, financial institutions, fintechs and 2180 02:15:16,590 --> 02:15:20,310 mobile network operators what this is, and this is what I 2181 02:15:20,310 --> 02:15:24,450 believe is happening with this push towards Africa. They want 2182 02:15:24,450 --> 02:15:27,750 to get everybody on our payment system. We don't want them on 2183 02:15:27,750 --> 02:15:31,860 any French thing and European thing. Certainly not any Chinese 2184 02:15:31,860 --> 02:15:35,820 thing, any any central bank digital currency, if it's going 2185 02:15:35,820 --> 02:15:38,910 to be one, it's gonna be ours. And they're already getting 2186 02:15:38,910 --> 02:15:42,510 ready and pushing countries like Nigeria in that direction. 2187 02:15:42,510 --> 02:15:45,810 Because you know, cash as we learned on the last episode of 2188 02:15:45,810 --> 02:15:48,120 the no agenda show is criminal 2189 02:15:48,270 --> 02:15:52,950 for 12 years. Nandu Kumar has grown his business by mostly 2190 02:15:52,950 --> 02:15:57,450 trading with large volumes of cash. But under a new central 2191 02:15:57,450 --> 02:16:01,530 bank directive starting January the ninth, individuals can only 2192 02:16:01,530 --> 02:16:08,550 withdraw 100,000, naira or $225 Every week, while companies are 2193 02:16:08,550 --> 02:16:14,220 allowed to withdraw just over $1,000 weekly. The policy is to 2194 02:16:14,220 --> 02:16:18,240 rein in on excess cash in circulation, curb inflation, 2195 02:16:18,420 --> 02:16:21,840 prevent counterfeiting, and discourage for payment of 2196 02:16:21,840 --> 02:16:24,780 ransoms to kidnappers who demand cash. 2197 02:16:28,050 --> 02:16:31,170 The kidnapping, of course, is key. But I also like that, hey, 2198 02:16:31,170 --> 02:16:33,720 we just got to pull some money out of circulation, we got crazy 2199 02:16:33,720 --> 02:16:37,860 inflation. And if you go back to this visa announcement, as well 2200 02:16:37,860 --> 02:16:41,220 as acting as a partner to banks that issue credit and debit 2201 02:16:41,220 --> 02:16:45,720 cards, Visa has African operations require it to work 2202 02:16:45,720 --> 02:16:49,410 alongside the continents mobile money and alternative payment 2203 02:16:49,410 --> 02:16:54,360 fintechs which use solutions, including mobile wallets and 2204 02:16:54,360 --> 02:16:57,000 virtual cards to bring digital payments to unbanked 2205 02:16:57,000 --> 02:16:59,700 populations. This is the language of the central bank 2206 02:16:59,700 --> 02:17:05,760 digital currency. And it would make total sense for the US to 2207 02:17:05,760 --> 02:17:09,420 roll out a digital dollar in Africa first aid would be 2208 02:17:09,450 --> 02:17:12,570 genius. Let's see how it works on those guys. Just like with 2209 02:17:12,570 --> 02:17:16,470 vaccines, everything we'd have tried out on them first. Yeah, 2210 02:17:16,500 --> 02:17:17,610 I think it's smart move. 2211 02:17:17,639 --> 02:17:21,419 Now it is it's a genius move and they're bringing in the bringing 2212 02:17:21,419 --> 02:17:25,169 in visa to help them MasterCard is already all in with the World 2213 02:17:25,169 --> 02:17:29,249 Economic Forum. So they're already doing their version of 2214 02:17:29,249 --> 02:17:34,379 whatever. So it's beautiful. It's gonna be very, very 2215 02:17:34,379 --> 02:17:34,919 interesting. 2216 02:17:35,460 --> 02:17:41,340 So well on the topic of bashing Biden let's go to the PBS 2217 02:17:41,340 --> 02:17:45,570 NewsHour we have this Brooks. You know, the nervous to still 2218 02:17:45,570 --> 02:17:47,940 seems to be like a nervous wreck when he talks to is it really a 2219 02:17:47,940 --> 02:17:50,820 nervous wreck? And this K part guy who is now 2220 02:17:50,820 --> 02:17:53,670 a new partner because Brooks killed the old guy. 2221 02:17:54,240 --> 02:18:02,100 The old guy died of old age and are the VAX and K part is they 2222 02:18:02,280 --> 02:18:07,560 out gay, proud gay. Now associate editor of the 2223 02:18:07,560 --> 02:18:11,040 Washington Post, he's moved up actually, to the point where 2224 02:18:11,040 --> 02:18:16,470 he's got some power. Oh, and he is such a bigoted gay guy. He is 2225 02:18:16,470 --> 02:18:21,750 a bigot. He's a bigoted, gay guy. He hates everything it says 2226 02:18:21,750 --> 02:18:27,240 it's, uh, you know, writ all over Democrat. He loves Joe 2227 02:18:27,240 --> 02:18:27,960 Biden. He's 2228 02:18:27,960 --> 02:18:28,680 big ated. 2229 02:18:29,430 --> 02:18:33,990 So let's do our brigaded guy. Let's listen to the part one of 2230 02:18:33,990 --> 02:18:35,130 these three clips 2231 02:18:35,160 --> 02:18:38,460 and Jonathan, I'm going to eat first. We just talked about the 2232 02:18:38,490 --> 02:18:42,570 the January 6. Committee on Monday the wide reports tonight 2233 02:18:42,570 --> 02:18:45,210 that they are going to recommend criminal referrals to the 2234 02:18:45,210 --> 02:18:48,420 Justice Department against former President Trump's serious 2235 02:18:48,420 --> 02:18:51,360 charges. What what's your reaction? What do you make of 2236 02:18:51,360 --> 02:18:51,510 it? 2237 02:18:51,690 --> 02:18:54,540 Well, my my initial reaction is good. 2238 02:18:56,340 --> 02:19:04,380 What kind of journalist editor of any newspaper would say good 2239 02:19:04,380 --> 02:19:09,390 make this kind of good. He's getting arrested good nerves. 2240 02:19:09,900 --> 02:19:14,490 This is a bigot. He should not be considered a journalist by 2241 02:19:14,490 --> 02:19:17,700 any means, let alone edit the Washington Post 2242 02:19:17,820 --> 02:19:20,400 t should be doing a show with Kara Swisher. 2243 02:19:21,600 --> 02:19:22,740 Okay, part two here. 2244 02:19:23,250 --> 02:19:26,880 blow to the committee. Jonathan, if justice doesn't go ahead and, 2245 02:19:27,150 --> 02:19:31,350 and, and make charges based on these referrals? 2246 02:19:31,500 --> 02:19:34,110 I don't think it'd be a blow to the committee. But if the 2247 02:19:34,110 --> 02:19:37,890 Justice Department doesn't take action, with all of the evidence 2248 02:19:37,890 --> 02:19:41,760 that the committee has presented to the American people, not to 2249 02:19:41,760 --> 02:19:45,630 mention the evidence to the Justice Department on its own, 2250 02:19:46,320 --> 02:19:50,970 possibly collected in its various investigations into what 2251 02:19:50,970 --> 02:19:54,720 happened on January 6. That would be more disappointing. I 2252 02:19:54,720 --> 02:19:59,520 think the committee's served its purpose. It investigated it 2253 02:19:59,640 --> 02:20:03,810 interview With more than 1000 witnesses, it put on compelling 2254 02:20:03,810 --> 02:20:07,650 hearings for the American people in ways that the American people 2255 02:20:07,650 --> 02:20:13,350 could listen, digest, understand and learn about how close their 2256 02:20:13,350 --> 02:20:17,730 government came to teetering at the instigation of the former 2257 02:20:17,730 --> 02:20:18,360 president. 2258 02:20:19,080 --> 02:20:22,410 Do we know the actual charge that they're talking about? 2259 02:20:22,500 --> 02:20:24,720 Yeah, they're gonna dig out three charges they're going to 2260 02:20:24,780 --> 02:20:28,800 they're thinking of doing but let's review what he just said, 2261 02:20:28,830 --> 02:20:35,100 Okay. Despite the fact that, that the President sent a memo 2262 02:20:35,100 --> 02:20:38,970 to Pelosi to fill up the place with cops, so they don't do what 2263 02:20:38,970 --> 02:20:43,530 happened on January 6, and she ignored it and never testified 2264 02:20:43,530 --> 02:20:47,400 about it. He knows that. And besides the fact that he said 2265 02:20:47,400 --> 02:20:51,360 peaceful Trump himself said peaceful and he said, but people 2266 02:20:51,360 --> 02:20:54,540 that are going to go to the Capitol, and that he wanted to 2267 02:20:54,540 --> 02:20:58,230 go to at some point, and besides the fact that these 1000 2268 02:20:58,230 --> 02:21:03,180 witnesses, most of them if they weren't amenable to, to trashing 2269 02:21:03,180 --> 02:21:09,630 Trump, were testimonies behind closed doors. He knows all that 2270 02:21:09,660 --> 02:21:13,140 but yet he's going on and on about how there's if there's no 2271 02:21:13,140 --> 02:21:21,420 indictment there, they're nuts. Now, on the other hand, we now 2272 02:21:21,420 --> 02:21:25,080 switch topics on the with these two and this time Brooks chimes 2273 02:21:25,080 --> 02:21:29,400 in because he's, this is no, this is the PBS NewsHour has 2274 02:21:29,400 --> 02:21:33,240 become a laughingstock, as far as I'm concerned in terms of its 2275 02:21:33,390 --> 02:21:36,300 where they have and who are they going to have replacing Judy? 2276 02:21:37,530 --> 02:21:41,880 The woman there's a multicoated girl Oh, that's right. She she 2277 02:21:41,880 --> 02:21:45,480 she's she's gonna get the she anchor the anchor, is she? I 2278 02:21:45,480 --> 02:21:49,860 think so. But she's really she's you don't have the gravitas in 2279 02:21:49,860 --> 02:21:52,410 her voice to do it? Well, he does have a 2280 02:21:53,520 --> 02:21:55,950 you have to you have to inhale like that while 2281 02:21:56,310 --> 02:22:04,200 he does a lot. So and by the way, I cut most of those out and 2282 02:22:04,200 --> 02:22:06,600 when I do clips with her because she's always breathing in 2283 02:22:06,630 --> 02:22:11,430 partially, but let's listen to this. This is this is two 2284 02:22:12,180 --> 02:22:16,500 Democrat mavens going on and on about Great Old Joe. He's 2285 02:22:16,500 --> 02:22:19,410 probably the best president we've ever had. And they both 2286 02:22:19,410 --> 02:22:22,230 agree with each other. As usual. I agree with you. I agree with 2287 02:22:22,230 --> 02:22:27,330 you. And listen to this pathetic excuse for analysis 2288 02:22:27,360 --> 02:22:30,840 poll that the NewsHour did collaborating with NPR and 2289 02:22:30,840 --> 02:22:35,310 Marist. Asking people not only about President Biden's approval 2290 02:22:35,310 --> 02:22:41,280 riches up a little bit 43%. But they were but they were in each 2291 02:22:41,280 --> 02:22:44,730 party Democrats were asked about whether they think Joe Biden 2292 02:22:45,090 --> 02:22:48,780 should be the nominee and in 2024, Republicans were asked the 2293 02:22:48,780 --> 02:22:53,010 same question about former President Trump and Biden 35% of 2294 02:22:53,010 --> 02:22:58,350 Democrats think he should be the nominee for Trump 45%. What does 2295 02:22:58,350 --> 02:22:59,010 that tell us? 2296 02:22:59,190 --> 02:23:03,510 It says for President Biden, the fact that 35% of Democrats want 2297 02:23:03,510 --> 02:23:07,140 him to run for reelection doesn't tell me a whole lot 2298 02:23:07,140 --> 02:23:09,480 because Democrats have been wringing their hands about 2299 02:23:09,480 --> 02:23:12,660 President Biden, since the man took the oath of office. And I 2300 02:23:12,660 --> 02:23:16,890 just would like for all of them to chill out. He's just two 2301 02:23:16,890 --> 02:23:21,120 years hence the first term, let the man do his job. And when he 2302 02:23:21,120 --> 02:23:24,600 does his job, as we have seen over this last year alone, the 2303 02:23:24,600 --> 02:23:28,410 dude gets stuff done. So stop the hand wringing, let him do 2304 02:23:28,410 --> 02:23:31,230 his job, and let them decide whether he's going to run for 2305 02:23:31,260 --> 02:23:33,030 reelection, which I think he will. 2306 02:23:34,260 --> 02:23:37,140 Democratic voters could be a big pain in the rear ends. I mean, 2307 02:23:37,140 --> 02:23:40,110 the guy who has passed a lot of legislation is masterfully 2308 02:23:40,110 --> 02:23:45,840 orchestrated a war and the Ukrainian effort against Russia. 2309 02:23:46,500 --> 02:23:49,830 He's just more or less won the midterms. What more do you want? 2310 02:23:50,760 --> 02:23:54,690 So he's, he's older than some people. But you know, he's had a 2311 02:23:54,690 --> 02:23:57,090 successful presidency as far as I can tell him and this is not 2312 02:23:57,090 --> 02:23:59,880 just about Joe Biden and Joe Biden's age. This is something 2313 02:23:59,880 --> 02:24:02,910 in the DNA of the Democratic Party. I've never really 2314 02:24:02,910 --> 02:24:06,660 understood why they can't be loyal to a guy's like their guy. 2315 02:24:09,180 --> 02:24:10,530 That's so pathetic. 2316 02:24:10,560 --> 02:24:13,980 It really is. And he orchestrated a great wars that 2317 02:24:13,980 --> 02:24:18,960 would Yeah. straighted a great or good word, just an everyday 2318 02:24:18,960 --> 02:24:19,380 or 2319 02:24:19,530 --> 02:24:23,610 a good one. A great war, just like the last great war. Well, I 2320 02:24:23,610 --> 02:24:30,210 have some ABC responses to this. John Karl on deck telling us a 2321 02:24:30,210 --> 02:24:33,540 little bit about this January 6 committee and what's going on 2322 02:24:33,570 --> 02:24:36,750 after more than a year of closed door investigations and dramatic 2323 02:24:36,750 --> 02:24:41,160 public hearings dramatic. ABC News has learned the January 6 2324 02:24:41,160 --> 02:24:44,700 committee plans to recommend criminal charges for former 2325 02:24:44,700 --> 02:24:47,520 President Donald Trump. Sources familiar with the committee's 2326 02:24:47,520 --> 02:24:50,610 deliberations say the recommended charges will include 2327 02:24:50,760 --> 02:24:54,780 conspiracy to defraud the United States and obstruction of an 2328 02:24:54,780 --> 02:24:57,750 official proceeding. The committee is also considering 2329 02:24:57,750 --> 02:25:03,240 recommending Trump be charged with its direction. Over the 2330 02:25:03,240 --> 02:25:06,540 course of 10 public hearings, the committee has methodically 2331 02:25:06,540 --> 02:25:10,320 made the case, Donald Trump was singularly responsible for the 2332 02:25:10,320 --> 02:25:14,190 attack on the Capitol. Not just that day, 2333 02:25:14,310 --> 02:25:22,020 gotta walk down to the Capitol because you'll never take back 2334 02:25:22,020 --> 02:25:25,410 our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you 2335 02:25:25,410 --> 02:25:26,370 have to be strong. 2336 02:25:26,520 --> 02:25:30,690 Wow. I don't think that sentence was actually strung together 2337 02:25:30,690 --> 02:25:33,750 that way, the way they just put this in the report sounds a 2338 02:25:34,350 --> 02:25:37,470 little fake, dishonest 2339 02:25:37,470 --> 02:25:40,350 during the weeks and months after the election leading up to 2340 02:25:40,350 --> 02:25:41,580 January 6, 2341 02:25:41,970 --> 02:25:46,110 President Trump summoned the mob, assembled the mob and lit 2342 02:25:46,110 --> 02:25:47,730 the flame of this attack. 2343 02:25:47,970 --> 02:25:50,190 The committee's criminal referral comes as it is 2344 02:25:50,190 --> 02:25:53,280 preparing to release its final report next week. 2345 02:25:53,369 --> 02:25:57,719 Oh, it's the final report that we gotta wait for, oh, next 2346 02:25:57,719 --> 02:26:01,769 week, just before Christmas. So no one actually reads it. Is 2347 02:26:01,769 --> 02:26:04,709 that is that the idea? I don't know. 2348 02:26:04,710 --> 02:26:07,800 Let's ask why they wait. Well, next week would be after 2349 02:26:07,800 --> 02:26:08,760 Christmas. 2350 02:26:09,900 --> 02:26:11,820 Let's ask Jess are talking about 2351 02:26:11,820 --> 02:26:14,190 next week being starting tomorrow? 2352 02:26:14,220 --> 02:26:16,560 I think tomorrow. I think it started tomorrow. Let's ask John 2353 02:26:16,560 --> 02:26:18,180 Karl, what are the contract? What what does this what does 2354 02:26:18,180 --> 02:26:19,050 this mean for Trump? 2355 02:26:19,350 --> 02:26:21,750 So let's get right to John Carl tonight with this late news. And 2356 02:26:21,750 --> 02:26:24,720 John bottom line. What does this mean for the former president 2357 02:26:24,720 --> 02:26:27,000 that these would be criminal referrals as we know this 2358 02:26:27,000 --> 02:26:29,010 decision is still up to the DOJ here. 2359 02:26:29,850 --> 02:26:32,700 David, the bottom line is that it is entirely up to the 2360 02:26:32,700 --> 02:26:36,420 Department of Justice, whether to pursue criminal charges 2361 02:26:36,600 --> 02:26:40,380 against Donald Trump and with or without these criminal referrals 2362 02:26:40,470 --> 02:26:43,200 from the January 6 committee, the Department of Justice 2363 02:26:43,200 --> 02:26:46,500 already has multiple investigations into Donald Trump 2364 02:26:46,500 --> 02:26:51,330 now overseen by Special Counsel Jack Smith, those investigations 2365 02:26:51,330 --> 02:26:55,110 include charges related to January 6, but also related to 2366 02:26:55,110 --> 02:26:58,740 his handling of government documents after he left office. 2367 02:26:58,860 --> 02:27:03,840 But as you said, the bottom line here is this is entirely up to 2368 02:27:03,840 --> 02:27:06,420 the Department of Justice whether or not to see criminal 2369 02:27:06,420 --> 02:27:07,620 indictments of Donald Trump. 2370 02:27:08,580 --> 02:27:12,420 Now, what I don't understand is that the Special Counsel Jack 2371 02:27:12,420 --> 02:27:18,750 Smith has subpoenaed officials in all seven states that Trump 2372 02:27:18,960 --> 02:27:25,260 accused of, of playing funny business. 2373 02:27:27,540 --> 02:27:31,620 So I thinking is if you're a Democrat, the thinking is he's 2374 02:27:31,620 --> 02:27:35,460 doing that for the purposes of finding evidence that Trump 2375 02:27:35,460 --> 02:27:36,900 called him up and threatened 2376 02:27:36,900 --> 02:27:41,580 him. Okay, well, maybe he can. I mean, what do you think? Do they 2377 02:27:41,580 --> 02:27:45,780 think Do you think they will have the balls to go through 2378 02:27:45,780 --> 02:27:50,130 this and I mean, forget how they do it, but the idea is, whatever 2379 02:27:50,130 --> 02:27:54,600 they do to Trump it so that he can legally not run for 2380 02:27:54,600 --> 02:27:57,990 president but that's what, that's what they want. That's 2381 02:27:57,990 --> 02:28:01,200 the goal. How do you think that's gonna go over in America? 2382 02:28:01,740 --> 02:28:03,690 Not Well, no, 2383 02:28:03,990 --> 02:28:08,190 I think it's gonna go over very poorly. And who is is, is 2384 02:28:08,190 --> 02:28:10,500 Merrick Garland really going to pull that trigger? Do you think 2385 02:28:10,500 --> 02:28:11,610 he'd really he 2386 02:28:11,670 --> 02:28:14,850 is a weenie looking guy when you see him every time he just looks 2387 02:28:14,850 --> 02:28:18,030 so much like Don Knotts, you know, shaking in his boots, 2388 02:28:18,030 --> 02:28:21,090 because you've got that one bullet in his pocket? Yeah. And 2389 02:28:21,090 --> 02:28:24,150 when he loads the gun with the bullet remains to be seen, but 2390 02:28:25,470 --> 02:28:29,850 he's getting a lot of pressure to do something. And if they 2391 02:28:29,850 --> 02:28:33,870 does, it will change American politics forever because now 2392 02:28:33,900 --> 02:28:37,050 every president will go let go after be like South America, 2393 02:28:37,290 --> 02:28:40,740 where a guy's know the guy's a president for six years. And 2394 02:28:40,740 --> 02:28:43,740 next thing you know, he's in jail. Next guy comes in he's 2395 02:28:43,770 --> 02:28:47,280 been arrested after he gets voted out. And yeah, I mean, it 2396 02:28:47,280 --> 02:28:50,520 came close to that sort of a system and it would Berlusconi, 2397 02:28:50,700 --> 02:28:53,760 but it hasn't really happened is also the same thing with in 2398 02:28:53,760 --> 02:28:57,000 France with supposedly they will start cozy, whatever his name 2399 02:28:57,000 --> 02:29:02,220 was the previous previous prime president was supposedly gonna 2400 02:29:02,220 --> 02:29:07,260 get indicted, never dead. It's just a lot of it's not good. 2401 02:29:07,260 --> 02:29:10,980 It's unhealthy. And it is trumped up. We've watched this 2402 02:29:10,980 --> 02:29:13,860 whole thing. These charges are bulk bogus. 2403 02:29:13,890 --> 02:29:18,060 Yeah. So there's something else that's happening with the 2404 02:29:18,060 --> 02:29:23,790 American news, which is I think it's surprising. Well, maybe 2405 02:29:23,790 --> 02:29:28,890 not. We the borders of the United States, certainly Texas 2406 02:29:28,890 --> 02:29:32,550 and the southern border, as it's called a pretty much open anyone 2407 02:29:32,550 --> 02:29:36,210 can come in, and just It's overwhelming, everyone's let 2408 02:29:36,210 --> 02:29:42,450 through. But there's this title 42, which Trump put into place, 2409 02:29:42,600 --> 02:29:48,150 which allowed border enforcement to actually kick people out of 2410 02:29:48,150 --> 02:29:52,080 the country, and that's expiring, I think at the end of 2411 02:29:52,080 --> 02:29:55,920 the year, which means they will the border authority will not 2412 02:29:55,920 --> 02:29:59,550 have the authority to send people back, and it seems like 2413 02:29:59,550 --> 02:30:02,910 the left wing media which is what most media is m five M. 2414 02:30:03,090 --> 02:30:07,170 They're a little disturbed by it. And they're reporting from 2415 02:30:07,170 --> 02:30:10,650 the border now. Here's Martha Raddatz tonight. This is the 2416 02:30:10,650 --> 02:30:15,090 scene that the US they sent Martha Raddatz to the border. So 2417 02:30:15,090 --> 02:30:17,220 this is serious reporting they're doing now, 2418 02:30:17,370 --> 02:30:22,020 tonight. This is the scene that the US Mexico border. Dozens of 2419 02:30:22,020 --> 02:30:27,360 migrants lining this fence to be processed off from Cuba. along 2420 02:30:27,360 --> 02:30:31,890 the Rio Grande. You can see their wet clothes shoes signs of 2421 02:30:31,890 --> 02:30:35,910 their arduous journey. But despite miles of fences, miles 2422 02:30:35,910 --> 02:30:39,450 of border and the National Guard along this border, you can just 2423 02:30:39,450 --> 02:30:42,900 look right there drive down. There's the river. That's Mexico 2424 02:30:42,900 --> 02:30:47,730 just on the other side. By some estimates, hundreds, maybe 1000s 2425 02:30:47,730 --> 02:30:51,330 of migrants are waiting in shelters like this one in Ciudad 2426 02:30:51,330 --> 02:30:56,550 Juarez for the exploration of title 42 the Trump era policy 2427 02:30:56,640 --> 02:30:59,940 that allows the expulsion of migrants without letting them 2428 02:30:59,940 --> 02:31:07,170 seek asylum. Are Matt Rivers met Carlos in Ciudad Juarez? He was 2429 02:31:07,170 --> 02:31:11,280 sent back to Mexico after crossing into El Paso earlier 2430 02:31:11,280 --> 02:31:12,480 this week. He hit 2431 02:31:12,480 --> 02:31:17,400 on I put them in a bus and they didn't say anything. They 2432 02:31:17,400 --> 02:31:20,400 brought them to the bridge and he crossed back over here. 2433 02:31:20,670 --> 02:31:26,340 He is one of the 2500 migrants crossing into El Paso every day, 2434 02:31:26,490 --> 02:31:31,710 Mexico just over the river. We surveyed the border with Texas 2435 02:31:31,710 --> 02:31:36,180 Governor Greg Abbott. He tells me they're bracing for a surge. 2436 02:31:36,210 --> 02:31:40,860 What do you think happens next week when title 42 comes to an 2437 02:31:40,860 --> 02:31:41,070 end? 2438 02:31:41,520 --> 02:31:45,750 If the courts don't intervene and put a halt to the removal of 2439 02:31:45,750 --> 02:31:48,240 title 42 It's gonna be total chaos. 2440 02:31:48,420 --> 02:31:52,590 DHS has predicted as many as 18,000 people could cross the 2441 02:31:52,590 --> 02:31:56,700 border every day. If title 42 expires next week. 2442 02:31:57,930 --> 02:31:59,580 This is gonna be kind of interesting. 2443 02:31:59,970 --> 02:32:03,420 Yeah, this is a good degrade Joe Biden. This is one of his great 2444 02:32:03,420 --> 02:32:08,670 things that these two jokers on PBS are talking about. So at ABH 2445 02:32:08,670 --> 02:32:09,420 elations 2446 02:32:09,480 --> 02:32:14,640 at ABC News, they have a new a new theme, just as we heard John 2447 02:32:14,640 --> 02:32:18,570 Carl being asked So bottom line it for us. This seems to be the 2448 02:32:18,570 --> 02:32:20,670 new thing at ABC News bottom line. So 2449 02:32:20,670 --> 02:32:23,280 let's bring in Martha Raddatz live in Texas for us tonight and 2450 02:32:23,280 --> 02:32:25,320 Martha bottom line here for people who are really 2451 02:32:25,560 --> 02:32:28,470 why why are they doing this? What is this bottom line thing 2452 02:32:28,470 --> 02:32:29,310 all of a sudden 2453 02:32:30,450 --> 02:32:33,060 just gets replaced at the end of the day. Oh, okay, 2454 02:32:33,060 --> 02:32:35,610 let's bring in Martha Raddatz live in Texas for us tonight. 2455 02:32:35,610 --> 02:32:38,130 And Martha bottom line here for people who are really following 2456 02:32:38,130 --> 02:32:42,090 this issue title 42. A set to expire next week, the White 2457 02:32:42,090 --> 02:32:44,910 House Congress will be pressed on how they plan to handle this. 2458 02:32:45,450 --> 02:32:50,340 Exactly. David 19 GOP states have appealed. So this is before 2459 02:32:50,340 --> 02:32:54,270 a judge but as of right now, title 42 will be lifted on 2460 02:32:54,270 --> 02:32:57,720 Wednesday. And there could be a massive wave of migrants but the 2461 02:32:57,720 --> 02:33:01,200 Biden administration says they are preparing for that. And 2462 02:33:01,200 --> 02:33:04,800 Congress could provide emergency funding. David says big 2463 02:33:04,800 --> 02:33:07,470 issue. Martha Raddatz Martha. Thank you, Martha. We'll have 2464 02:33:07,530 --> 02:33:10,320 much more live from the border, including her interview with the 2465 02:33:10,320 --> 02:33:13,350 Texas governor. This week. Of course. That's Sunday morning 2466 02:33:13,350 --> 02:33:14,670 right here, Martha. Thank you. 2467 02:33:15,150 --> 02:33:18,930 So emergency funding, so just we don't want to fix the problem. 2468 02:33:18,930 --> 02:33:20,130 Just send more money. 2469 02:33:20,640 --> 02:33:24,030 Yeah. Ah, goodness. Exactly. 2470 02:33:24,990 --> 02:33:30,930 This so bad. All right. I this was a great story. If you ever 2471 02:33:30,930 --> 02:33:33,150 been to Berlin, you've probably seen it. I don't know if you've 2472 02:33:33,150 --> 02:33:35,640 ever been to this particular part of Berlin but this is 2473 02:33:35,640 --> 02:33:36,570 fantastic. 2474 02:33:36,570 --> 02:33:40,020 Sub freezing temperatures are suspected of causing a five 2475 02:33:40,020 --> 02:33:44,130 storey high aquarium to burst today at a hotel in Berlin, 2476 02:33:44,130 --> 02:33:48,120 Germany. People thought a bomb went off when the glass exploded 2477 02:33:48,120 --> 02:33:53,580 more than 200,000 gallons of water and 1500 tropical fish are 2478 02:33:53,580 --> 02:33:56,880 washed into the street and two people were injured. 2479 02:33:56,940 --> 02:33:59,730 Now do you know how this story played out in Europe? 2480 02:34:00,480 --> 02:34:04,320 Well, first of all, I want to tell everyone that if you get a 2481 02:34:04,320 --> 02:34:08,910 shot at it, go look this up so you can see this thing. This was 2482 02:34:08,910 --> 02:34:14,670 a massive aquarium that was in the middle of a hotel. Astrium 2483 02:34:15,450 --> 02:34:19,260 atrium that looks like it's about six storeys high, and it 2484 02:34:19,260 --> 02:34:23,010 was just right. It was huge. It was monstrous. It's 2485 02:34:23,010 --> 02:34:26,130 unbelievable. It was even manufactured. Anyway, not take 2486 02:34:26,130 --> 02:34:26,910 it from there. Sorry. 2487 02:34:27,030 --> 02:34:30,150 So in Europe, the story played out that this is the fault of 2488 02:34:30,150 --> 02:34:34,740 Putin, of course. And I will explain Oh, yes, yes, it is 2489 02:34:34,740 --> 02:34:40,260 because of the Putin dirty, nasty oil and gas that he has 2490 02:34:40,260 --> 02:34:45,660 cut off. As you know, all everyone has been asked to cut 2491 02:34:45,660 --> 02:34:50,820 back on gas. And because the hotel had lowered their 2492 02:34:50,820 --> 02:34:57,540 temperature, because of Putin's war, his illegal war. That's 2493 02:34:57,540 --> 02:35:00,900 what caused the differential in temperature for Hate to crack. 2494 02:35:01,800 --> 02:35:10,170 So indirectly, another one for Putin. Wow. Right. 2495 02:35:10,200 --> 02:35:11,970 I think he blame everything on that guy. 2496 02:35:12,330 --> 02:35:13,920 Well, why not? It's pretty good. 2497 02:35:15,360 --> 02:35:16,770 I like it. It's very good. I 2498 02:35:16,770 --> 02:35:21,960 really I like it too. I like it too. Let me see a little update 2499 02:35:21,960 --> 02:35:29,250 from the EU on the corruption case. This is Eva Kylie, who I 2500 02:35:29,310 --> 02:35:33,450 as as we said we heard the partner thing being played up. 2501 02:35:33,720 --> 02:35:37,170 And well turns out she may not be culpable. 2502 02:35:37,230 --> 02:35:40,050 And in the latest development in the corruption scandal involving 2503 02:35:40,050 --> 02:35:43,260 member of European Parliament, Eva Kelly, her Italian partner 2504 02:35:43,260 --> 02:35:47,130 has reportedly confessed his role in the Qatar graft scandal. 2505 02:35:47,550 --> 02:35:51,390 According to a report by news agency, Reuters Francesco 2506 02:35:51,390 --> 02:35:55,110 Georgie has confessed to taking bribes from Qatar to influence 2507 02:35:55,110 --> 02:35:57,870 the European Parliament decisions on Qatar. This has 2508 02:35:57,870 --> 02:36:01,170 reportedly made a significant contribution to the probe 2509 02:36:01,170 --> 02:36:03,720 underway by Belgian investigating magistrates, 2510 02:36:04,020 --> 02:36:07,230 Georgie worked as an assistant to an Italian Member of the 2511 02:36:07,230 --> 02:36:10,710 European Parliament reports that Georgie has told investigators 2512 02:36:10,710 --> 02:36:13,890 that Kaylee was not involved in the corruption scandal. Kaley, 2513 02:36:13,890 --> 02:36:17,130 who was sacked from her role as Vice President of the European 2514 02:36:17,130 --> 02:36:21,420 Parliament has denied any role in the alleged bribery, while 2515 02:36:21,420 --> 02:36:24,150 Qatar has also denied any involvement in the corruption 2516 02:36:24,150 --> 02:36:28,050 case. Earlier Kaylee's lawyer had suggested that Georgie might 2517 02:36:28,050 --> 02:36:32,010 have answers about the existence the scatch found that home a 2518 02:36:32,010 --> 02:36:35,190 series of searches of the homes and offices of politicians, 2519 02:36:35,190 --> 02:36:38,640 lobbyists and parliamentary assistants turned up around 1.6 2520 02:36:38,640 --> 02:36:42,120 million US dollars in cash. Kaylee, her partner as well as x 2521 02:36:42,120 --> 02:36:46,170 and NPR, Antonio Banbury, and lobbyists, Niccolo figured out a 2522 02:36:46,170 --> 02:36:50,280 mantra are all charged with corruption, money laundering and 2523 02:36:50,280 --> 02:36:53,280 organized crime. On Thursday, the European Parliament 2524 02:36:53,280 --> 02:36:56,550 suspended all work on legislation linked to Qatar and 2525 02:36:56,550 --> 02:36:59,610 Parliament's president told the European Union leaders she would 2526 02:36:59,610 --> 02:37:02,700 lead reforms to prevent a repeat of a criminal corruption 2527 02:37:02,700 --> 02:37:03,090 scandal. 2528 02:37:03,720 --> 02:37:06,540 Of course, we have to go to India to get these this kind of 2529 02:37:06,540 --> 02:37:11,250 reporting W IO N I guess she's because she's not guilty but it 2530 02:37:11,250 --> 02:37:15,690 seems like it the money went from 600,000 euros to $1.6 2531 02:37:15,690 --> 02:37:21,720 million this this is not adding up here. And I given us the full 2532 02:37:21,720 --> 02:37:22,200 story now 2533 02:37:22,200 --> 02:37:24,780 this you know, we're not getting this story at all. No, 2534 02:37:25,080 --> 02:37:29,040 obviously. No. Well, here's an interesting little side bit 2535 02:37:29,040 --> 02:37:33,210 here. Looks like I don't want to play this up too much because 2536 02:37:33,210 --> 02:37:36,810 you don't know is PVS store in Starbucks going on strike. 2537 02:37:37,770 --> 02:37:41,640 Starbucks workers kicked off a three day walk out today, as 2538 02:37:41,640 --> 02:37:44,850 they tried to unionize the coffee chain. Organizers 2539 02:37:44,850 --> 02:37:49,710 estimated more than 1000 says at 100 stores were taking part no 2540 02:37:49,710 --> 02:37:53,520 good paying union jobs. It is the latest in a series of labor 2541 02:37:53,520 --> 02:37:57,930 actions. There have been votes to unionize it more than 260 of 2542 02:37:57,930 --> 02:38:02,340 Starbucks 9000 company run stores in the US. 2543 02:38:02,700 --> 02:38:08,550 Well, if you're going to play that, then I need to play this. 2544 02:38:08,550 --> 02:38:14,610 This is from a YouTuber. So it's just about a minute. This 2545 02:38:14,610 --> 02:38:17,580 YouTubers name is Patrick Humphrey, and he works in 2546 02:38:17,850 --> 02:38:21,390 shipping in shipping and particularly the trains. And 2547 02:38:21,390 --> 02:38:24,270 this is a little piece of information. He started his his 2548 02:38:24,270 --> 02:38:25,710 YouTube video with a 2549 02:38:25,710 --> 02:38:31,140 massive railroad embargo has just started. This has started 2550 02:38:31,140 --> 02:38:35,760 with Union Pacific Railway. They have implemented this embargo. 2551 02:38:36,030 --> 02:38:39,930 And they are telling producers and shippers to take off 2552 02:38:39,930 --> 02:38:44,550 hundreds and hundreds of their carts individually. All right, 2553 02:38:44,550 --> 02:38:48,210 individual shippers are being told to take off hundreds of 2554 02:38:48,210 --> 02:38:53,940 their cards. And they're being told that shipping limits and 2555 02:38:53,940 --> 02:38:57,840 shipping embargoes are being put in place. Right. So this is very 2556 02:38:57,840 --> 02:39:01,830 serious. This is a another threat to our Railway. This is 2557 02:39:01,830 --> 02:39:06,930 just like the strikes we saw last month earlier this month, 2558 02:39:06,930 --> 02:39:09,930 we are seeing these strikes. Thankfully they were averted. 2559 02:39:09,990 --> 02:39:14,310 Right. But we are still seeing repercussions and reactions to 2560 02:39:14,310 --> 02:39:17,250 it. And it's almost is this intentional is this on purpose 2561 02:39:17,250 --> 02:39:21,270 because the rate at which Union Pacific is shutting down. And 2562 02:39:21,270 --> 02:39:25,320 putting these embargoes in place is extreme. It's almost 10x 2563 02:39:25,560 --> 02:39:28,680 compared to what they normally do. Right. And this has been 2564 02:39:28,680 --> 02:39:32,580 happening this year. And it's just almost makes you wonder if 2565 02:39:32,580 --> 02:39:36,270 they're trying to shut down the railways on purpose. 2566 02:39:37,050 --> 02:39:40,110 I mean, I don't have much else I'll just call it a boots on the 2567 02:39:40,110 --> 02:39:41,010 ground report. 2568 02:39:41,520 --> 02:39:44,370 Well, I only have one thing to say about that is it kind of 2569 02:39:44,370 --> 02:39:47,460 explains what I saw a couple of days ago and I don't know if 2570 02:39:47,460 --> 02:39:49,320 it's been going on every day because they only catch it when 2571 02:39:49,320 --> 02:39:53,100 I look out the window and look down it down the hill where the 2572 02:39:53,100 --> 02:40:00,660 tracks are Union Pacific BNSF is with BNSF but they're was a 2573 02:40:01,500 --> 02:40:06,150 normally there's like a 100 to 200 car train goes by twice a 2574 02:40:06,150 --> 02:40:10,020 day usually filled with containers from China that 2575 02:40:10,020 --> 02:40:14,520 they're bringing into the into the into the hinterlands and 2576 02:40:14,520 --> 02:40:17,910 there was nothing but empty is empty carriers there was just 2577 02:40:17,910 --> 02:40:22,230 like infinite number of empty carriers are NO NO 2578 02:40:22,740 --> 02:40:24,780 NO NO NO carts on it at all just 2579 02:40:24,780 --> 02:40:30,180 no carriers whatsoever. So we have empty holders that like to 2580 02:40:30,180 --> 02:40:32,790 think that you put that you drop a container and then you drop 2581 02:40:32,790 --> 02:40:35,160 another container on it and off it goes. Now these are all 2582 02:40:35,160 --> 02:40:39,060 empties, which I've never seen so many heading out of the 2583 02:40:39,060 --> 02:40:40,590 border Oakland empty 2584 02:40:42,000 --> 02:40:45,240 well there you have it. We have confirmation corroboration. 2585 02:40:46,380 --> 02:40:47,670 Oh my god 2586 02:40:51,270 --> 02:40:54,690 I'm gonna show my spoon but Jonah did no agenda. Imagine all 2587 02:40:54,690 --> 02:40:57,210 the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun 2588 02:41:04,860 --> 02:41:09,510 we have a few people to thank him.

Heating and heating is costing an arm 2593 02:41:32,790 --> 02:41:34,980 and a leg. This probably is what's coming for our load. 2594 02:41:36,090 --> 02:41:40,200 People are having to spend more on the on life life support 2595 02:41:40,200 --> 02:41:45,510 systems.

Well play this and you'll see. 2840 02:58:02,490 --> 02:58:06,180 New Zealand has just banned the next generation from purchasing 2841 02:58:06,180 --> 02:58:09,930 tobacco products ever. The country passed a package of new 2842 02:58:09,930 --> 02:58:13,890 anti smoking laws yesterday. The suite of new laws is among the 2843 02:58:13,890 --> 02:58:16,920 strictest in the world. It includes prohibiting sales of 2844 02:58:16,920 --> 02:58:22,050 tobacco to anyone born on or after January 1 2009. That's 2845 02:58:22,050 --> 02:58:26,220 punishable by fines of nearly 100,000 US dollars. The 2846 02:58:26,220 --> 02:58:29,430 legislation also reduces the amount of nicotine allowed in 2847 02:58:29,430 --> 02:58:32,730 smoked tobacco products, and it cuts the number of retailers 2848 02:58:32,730 --> 02:58:38,160 able to sell tobacco by 90% it will drop from 6000 to 600 by 2849 02:58:38,160 --> 02:58:42,420 the end of 2023. New Zealand already boasts low adult smoking 2850 02:58:42,420 --> 02:58:45,660 rates but the government hopes to make the country's smoke free 2851 02:58:45,690 --> 02:58:46,920 by 2025. 2852 02:58:47,730 --> 02:58:52,200 Now I think we heard about this and I wonder if this is you know 2853 02:58:52,200 --> 02:58:57,720 to still usher in the the eye cos or anything like that.
