You know, the it's funny 34 00:01:49,499 --> 00:01:53,399 when you go backstage in one of these fashion shows, you know, 35 00:01:53,399 --> 00:01:56,069 the clothes, these clothes are not really made for these girls. 36 00:01:56,069 --> 00:01:59,459 That's why they're all kind of like one size. So you know, 37 00:01:59,459 --> 00:02:03,089 there's like gaffer tape and clothes pins and all kinds of 38 00:02:03,089 --> 00:02:05,309 stuff and shoes. You know, here's some shoes. What? They're 39 00:02:05,309 --> 00:02:09,839 two big sticks and tissue paper in them. Yes. Here's my two year 40 00:02:09,839 --> 00:02:13,529 old kid. And she's on this big ass catwalk and the and all the 41 00:02:13,529 --> 00:02:16,559 nations press is watching her and she's like, and the shoe was 42 00:02:16,559 --> 00:02:19,799 almost like flying off her foot. Yeah, I saw it. No one else saw 43 00:02:19,799 --> 00:02:22,949 it. Then, you know, it was it was cool. 44 00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:27,240 Every every year two or three models. Take a tumble. It's 45 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,780 always the best ones. I've done that YouTube. 46 00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:35,700 Yeah. And Christina and I discussed this please don't 47 00:02:35,700 --> 00:02:39,900 become a YouTube clip. No, no, I'm not gonna I see the great 48 00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,660 job. I was very very, very proud papa. 49 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,320 So yeah, that was so how tall is she? Well, she way 50 00:02:47,430 --> 00:02:49,650 none of your business you dirty all she has 51 00:02:49,650 --> 00:02:52,200 to be at least five as well. No, she's one of the tall tall 52 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,280 types. Are the are the shorts? Shorter, skinnier ones she's 53 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,370 at? Well, she's I'm not quite sure what she weighs. She's 54 00:02:59,370 --> 00:03:02,550 She's skinny. But not crazy skinny. She's got beautiful, 55 00:03:02,550 --> 00:03:03,540 curvaceous, 56 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,540 skinny they are Yeah, yeah. 57 00:03:06,570 --> 00:03:09,360 But she's five, seven. So technically, she's a little too 58 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:10,200 short. Oh, she's 59 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:10,980 short. Yeah, but 60 00:03:10,980 --> 00:03:15,150 she's a celebrity model, dude. So she gets so she's allowed to 61 00:03:15,150 --> 00:03:17,100 get away with it. And you know, at the end where the weather 62 00:03:17,100 --> 00:03:20,130 Designer comes out. And then he always takes one of the models 63 00:03:20,130 --> 00:03:22,770 and takes her up front of in front of all the press. Of 64 00:03:22,770 --> 00:03:25,050 course, he took my daughter all the way up front. It was cool. 65 00:03:25,890 --> 00:03:29,490 It was fun. And it was a harrowing moment wave and yell 66 00:03:29,490 --> 00:03:35,760 Hi, Daddy. Hi, Eddie. No, but I was going like looking at me 67 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:41,550 like shut the fuck up dude. How you doing? So anyway, so that 68 00:03:41,550 --> 00:03:45,030 coincided exactly with our normal kickoff time for for the 69 00:03:45,030 --> 00:03:45,390 show 70 00:03:49,860 --> 00:03:53,940 so what's going on over there in Europe, I saw that they they now 71 00:03:53,940 --> 00:03:58,530 have you know coincidentally leaked the memos that show that 72 00:03:58,530 --> 00:04:01,080 the Iraqi or the I'm sorry, the Libyan 73 00:04:01,710 --> 00:04:05,100 Oh, in the in the UK. Yeah, that it's all about oil. Yeah. And 74 00:04:05,100 --> 00:04:07,590 they leaked they mysteriously leaked these documents of 75 00:04:07,590 --> 00:04:11,100 course, which is that by based on our theories as to cover up 76 00:04:11,100 --> 00:04:14,700 for the real reason they released the guy and they just 77 00:04:14,730 --> 00:04:18,210 basically throw Gordon Brown under the bus say all was for 78 00:04:18,210 --> 00:04:21,570 oil. We screwed up. And then they that's just let us forget 79 00:04:21,570 --> 00:04:24,810 the fact that maybe they have the real evidence. It was the 80 00:04:24,810 --> 00:04:26,460 whole scheme was Melson. 81 00:04:26,459 --> 00:04:29,669 Yeah, I'm telling you. It's pretty blatant, almost. I mean, 82 00:04:29,669 --> 00:04:32,729 we predicted it. I think actually, you predicted it. And 83 00:04:32,729 --> 00:04:35,459 it's exactly what happens in the oil. Well, we found some demos 84 00:04:35,459 --> 00:04:38,519 from two years ago. And that of course is exactly why this was a 85 00:04:38,519 --> 00:04:43,169 whole oil swap. And now you know Gadhafi son is now he's being 86 00:04:43,169 --> 00:04:45,809 pushed to the forefront. Of course, he's going to take over 87 00:04:45,809 --> 00:04:48,779 eventually, you know, the typical way it works in in a 88 00:04:48,779 --> 00:04:52,349 world world stage politics. So 89 00:04:52,860 --> 00:04:55,980 yeah, and talking about that kind of thing. My here's your I 90 00:04:55,980 --> 00:04:57,720 think there's gonna be an interesting situation happening 91 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,160 in Massachusetts, by the way all All this morning as all it was 92 00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:07,020 for another day, Kennedy, Ted Kennedy and Ted Kennedy. I mean, 93 00:05:07,020 --> 00:05:08,250 it's like this guy. 94 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,600 When you go when Ray going, given this much inquiry, you're 95 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,150 gonna go on a rant but I'd like to say something before you go 96 00:05:15,150 --> 00:05:18,690 on the rant. It pisses me on rant. I hope you are because 97 00:05:18,690 --> 00:05:23,670 I've got a jingle for your rants. It really upsets me. No, 98 00:05:23,820 --> 00:05:28,110 they pisses me off. That here we are. Yeah, that's no, that's all 99 00:05:28,110 --> 00:05:34,080 Old English. And a H, and a wind. Hey, anyway, the eyes and 100 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,400 the nays. So I say a name. It pisses me off that here, we have 101 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,450 to have, you know, the whole coffin with the flag draped over 102 00:05:42,450 --> 00:05:46,500 it. Yet, the American media has expressly been forbidding from 103 00:05:46,500 --> 00:05:50,610 showing any young service men or women who are killed in the line 104 00:05:50,610 --> 00:05:53,760 of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, you're not allowed to show their 105 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,000 coffins. But let's show the drunk. Let's show his coffin. 106 00:05:57,030 --> 00:06:00,390 Oh, by the way, let's put him in Arlington Cemetery. I guess the 107 00:06:00,390 --> 00:06:03,120 barrier to entry is pretty low. John, we should reserve our plot 108 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,440 there, we can be there now. 109 00:06:05,610 --> 00:06:08,100 So here's the deal. Here's what I'm seeing seeing coming down 110 00:06:08,100 --> 00:06:10,410 the road. They've already talked about who's going to replace 111 00:06:10,410 --> 00:06:13,890 him. And, you know, they're trying to push to caucus. No 112 00:06:13,890 --> 00:06:17,640 kidding me. No to caucus is like at the top of the list. But you 113 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,280 know, who is there going to? I think before all is said and 114 00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:23,100 done to try to push another city and and I'm thinking that 115 00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:24,210 dingbat, Carroll. 116 00:06:25,260 --> 00:06:27,330 Well, didn't they try that? Didn't they try that in New 117 00:06:27,330 --> 00:06:33,180 York? Well, they, they tried to put her into Hillary spot. And 118 00:06:33,180 --> 00:06:35,280 then Carolyn garden. Right. 119 00:06:35,940 --> 00:06:39,510 Right. She backed out. She backed out of the deal. And I 120 00:06:39,510 --> 00:06:43,320 think to be honest about it. I think that somebody came up to 121 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,320 her and said, look, it's gonna be a tough go anyway. A lot of 122 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,440 flack. Let him beat the crap out of you. Then there'll be some 123 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,350 sympathy because Teddy's not long for this world. Why don't 124 00:06:52,350 --> 00:06:54,690 you do it in Massachusetts, you can be closer to home. 125 00:06:55,589 --> 00:06:59,879 And you know, they talked that way. And the old geezers gonna 126 00:06:59,879 --> 00:07:02,579 croak man, don't worry about it. You get your spat bibs. 127 00:07:03,749 --> 00:07:05,789 That way, people talk. 128 00:07:05,820 --> 00:07:09,090 I met her I was introduced to her through of all people, Tom 129 00:07:09,090 --> 00:07:13,950 Brokaw. And she's very nice. And she seems 130 00:07:13,950 --> 00:07:16,650 like a very pleasant person. I actually wouldn't really object 131 00:07:16,650 --> 00:07:19,680 to this, but I don't think she's the brightest bulb in the pack. 132 00:07:19,890 --> 00:07:23,490 I also met Now who's the who's kind of like the loser of the 133 00:07:23,490 --> 00:07:32,910 family. It On. So it's not her, not her cousin. It's the guy 134 00:07:32,910 --> 00:07:34,980 who's actually running the Special Olympics who was doing 135 00:07:34,980 --> 00:07:35,850 that with Eunice. 136 00:07:36,209 --> 00:07:39,119 And of course, now it's taken Robert Kennedy, Jr. Maybe? Oh, 137 00:07:39,119 --> 00:07:39,689 no, no, no, 138 00:07:39,690 --> 00:07:43,950 no, no, no, it's a god. I had dinner with him once. Yeah, 139 00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:46,020 we're still million. Yeah, there's a whole bunch of them 140 00:07:46,020 --> 00:07:49,080 running. But Carolyn Kennedy, this was when she was doing the 141 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,290 library. And she was interested. This is in the late 90s. She was 142 00:07:52,290 --> 00:07:58,950 interested in putting the JFK Library on the internet's and 143 00:07:58,950 --> 00:08:03,180 she had asked Tom Brokaw who who could help with that. And I 144 00:08:03,180 --> 00:08:06,660 thought I was tickled pink that Tom Brokaw said that I'm 145 00:08:06,660 --> 00:08:12,810 courageous or talk to him. Like yeah, cool. No business. No 146 00:08:12,810 --> 00:08:16,440 business whatsoever. I showed I showed her the, you know, here's 147 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,350 what we'll charge you. What you won't do it for free for 148 00:08:19,350 --> 00:08:20,010 Camelot. 149 00:08:22,470 --> 00:08:23,790 I'm sure that's what they're looking for. 150 00:08:23,850 --> 00:08:28,950 Yeah, well, you know what I said there's no service for you. She 151 00:08:28,950 --> 00:08:30,390 was totally looking for a freebie. 152 00:08:32,580 --> 00:08:35,520 Well, anyway, I think that this hasn't cropped up yet. I'm just 153 00:08:35,580 --> 00:08:39,330 kind of predicting it's a possibility. It's totally 154 00:08:39,330 --> 00:08:42,810 possible. But Dukakis isn't the other the you know, the other 155 00:08:42,810 --> 00:08:45,480 side of that equation that he's going to be trying to get in 156 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:45,750 there. 157 00:08:46,500 --> 00:08:49,350 And you know, Dukakis, of course has a bad rap. I really wasn't 158 00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:51,720 following politics that much at the time. In fact, that was 159 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,620 pretty much enslaved to the Gitmo nation system and bought 160 00:08:55,620 --> 00:08:58,620 at all with the rest of them. Of course, they would killed his 161 00:08:58,620 --> 00:09:02,730 presidential run his careers the goofy ass picture of him in the 162 00:09:02,730 --> 00:09:06,210 tank with the stupid helmet on and no one could take the guys 163 00:09:06,210 --> 00:09:11,850 seriously. Classic. That was that was the Howard Dean scream 164 00:09:11,850 --> 00:09:15,240 and you had the Dukakis helmet gaff sticking out of the tank 165 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,570 looking like it looked goofy man. He just looked like it was 166 00:09:18,570 --> 00:09:22,350 hilarious. really was and I ran it over and over and over again. 167 00:09:22,350 --> 00:09:24,810 And and that's how you don't become president in the United 168 00:09:24,810 --> 00:09:27,630 States. It doesn't matter. If you're in Italy, you can be 169 00:09:27,630 --> 00:09:30,360 screwing models. You could have naked people hanging out at the 170 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:36,030 pool. You can have questionable romances with 18 year olds, 171 00:09:36,030 --> 00:09:39,990 divorce your wife, sue the newspapers. And yeah, you're 172 00:09:39,990 --> 00:09:41,910 cool, man. You're hanging no problem. 173 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,950 Yeah, well, that's Italy. So anyway, the other thing that's 174 00:09:49,950 --> 00:09:52,380 going on, there's a couple of interesting things happening 175 00:09:52,380 --> 00:09:56,100 over here. I mentioned one, the US Chamber of Commerce is going 176 00:09:56,100 --> 00:10:00,120 to trial and global warming. Yeah, they went to trial. on 177 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,850 global warming, because they just but I was reading through 178 00:10:02,850 --> 00:10:04,890 some of these reports, especially the ones in the New 179 00:10:04,890 --> 00:10:07,710 York Times, and they're kind of they have kind of a twisted. 180 00:10:09,299 --> 00:10:12,029 I got the the LA Times version of the story, 181 00:10:12,450 --> 00:10:14,400 because the New York Times version, and I'm sure the LA 182 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,640 Times is they've twisted the thing, just subtly that so 183 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:22,950 people maybe don't notice. It's instead of discussing whether I 184 00:10:22,950 --> 00:10:26,190 mean, the real issue is, is there such a thing as manmade, 185 00:10:26,670 --> 00:10:29,250 global warming. That's not 186 00:10:29,250 --> 00:10:31,740 whether there's global warming or not, but whether it's 187 00:10:31,740 --> 00:10:32,580 manmade. 188 00:10:33,570 --> 00:10:37,320 Right? Now, the other what they're, they're twisting this 189 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,860 to say that that's not there. This is weird. You have to 190 00:10:40,860 --> 00:10:42,810 really read between the lines to kind of pick this up, but what 191 00:10:42,810 --> 00:10:48,150 they're really trying to do is have a have a trial on not where 192 00:10:48,150 --> 00:10:51,510 there's manmade weathers global warming, but whether global 193 00:10:51,510 --> 00:10:52,710 warming is bad. 194 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,240 Yeah, I like that one, though. That makes sense. But 195 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,350 it's, it's totally beside the point and twisted. You know, is 196 00:11:01,350 --> 00:11:04,320 it bad? I mean, they can't prove it one way or the other because 197 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,110 it's obvious. It's not provable. You know, it's like, you know, 198 00:11:07,110 --> 00:11:12,000 is, here's gonna kill you in 2.6 years, here's 199 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:12,750 a great quote, you 200 00:11:12,750 --> 00:11:15,300 want to know and joke for 2.6 years? Great quotes 201 00:11:15,299 --> 00:11:19,259 from the LA Times. The Chamber of Commerce proposal, quote 202 00:11:19,259 --> 00:11:23,339 brings to mind for me the Salem Witch Trials based on myths that 203 00:11:23,339 --> 00:11:26,159 Brenda Edwards sold, which sounds like a witch named, by 204 00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:29,249 the way, who was a client, climate scientist for the 205 00:11:29,249 --> 00:11:34,169 environmental group Union of Concerned Scientists. That's 206 00:11:34,169 --> 00:11:37,709 kind of crazy, though. When your name is Brenda Edwards. And 207 00:11:37,709 --> 00:11:40,199 you're talking about the Salem witch trials. Well, Brenda, you 208 00:11:40,199 --> 00:11:44,549 might want to change your name. Okay. Hey, sound like eucalypt? 209 00:11:47,159 --> 00:11:51,749 Yeah, so they want the EPA to jump in on this, right? 210 00:11:52,110 --> 00:11:56,520 Yeah, they would that arrogant woman that runs it. She'll just 211 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:57,090 tell them to 212 00:11:58,260 --> 00:12:01,560 stuff it was that. What's her name? And I 213 00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:04,110 can't remember. I mean, I just remembered I can still see her 214 00:12:04,110 --> 00:12:07,740 though. Anyway, 215 00:12:07,950 --> 00:12:10,500 well, that is that is interesting. And of course, the 216 00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:12,510 reason why the Chamber of Commerce is doing this is 217 00:12:12,510 --> 00:12:17,970 because they represent medium and small businesses. And those 218 00:12:17,970 --> 00:12:20,820 are the businesses that will get hit the hardest the scores, 219 00:12:20,850 --> 00:12:24,270 yeah, because of all the, in fact, I was reading that the 220 00:12:24,270 --> 00:12:29,250 Netherlands speaking of Gitmo nation, East, they I'm gonna see 221 00:12:29,250 --> 00:12:35,490 if I have the story here. They have just put out a tender for 222 00:12:35,490 --> 00:12:41,070 their carbon trading system. Since they plan to actively 223 00:12:41,070 --> 00:12:44,070 trade here, of course, we have your own next to the option 224 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:49,800 exchange in Amsterdam. So I guess they're there. They're on 225 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,180 board with the programme. 226 00:12:54,150 --> 00:12:57,330 This is just some deputy just cap and trade thing is 227 00:12:57,330 --> 00:12:58,080 ridiculous. 228 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,000 I wanted to mention speaking of the Netherlands that you 229 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,850 remember the the court case we talked about about the the Dutch 230 00:13:05,850 --> 00:13:09,840 Royals, who sued Associated Press Satoshi for their photos? 231 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:15,750 Well, the headlines read Dutch Royals when privacy case. And I 232 00:13:15,750 --> 00:13:18,450 find that I find that highly interesting, because first of 233 00:13:18,450 --> 00:13:23,670 all, I looked into the court documents, and they sued the 234 00:13:23,670 --> 00:13:27,180 Associated Press. It's about four pictures. And these four 235 00:13:27,180 --> 00:13:31,710 pictures were of them while they were on vacation in Argentina. 236 00:13:32,220 --> 00:13:39,570 And they feel that they sued the AP under the European Human 237 00:13:39,570 --> 00:13:44,400 Rights legislation. Wherein the state had every human being has 238 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:49,110 the right to privacy. And so the judge said, Well, you know what, 239 00:13:49,140 --> 00:13:52,890 yes, everyone has the right to privacy. So those four pictures 240 00:13:52,890 --> 00:13:57,810 had no newsworthiness. And they also do not contribute to the 241 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:06,030 broader social discussion. Ergo, they are deemed private, and may 242 00:14:06,030 --> 00:14:10,230 no longer be published. But of course, the judge didn't, didn't 243 00:14:10,230 --> 00:14:12,900 say you can't take pictures of the royal family. It's just that 244 00:14:12,900 --> 00:14:16,110 hascon and Jews worthy. So you know, it's kind of, it's not 245 00:14:16,110 --> 00:14:19,500 really a win. They got no money because they were suing for you 246 00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:23,730 know, 25 million or whatever. In total. They were they were suing 247 00:14:23,730 --> 00:14:27,660 for 25 million. Yeah, like $25,000 a day that they kept 248 00:14:27,660 --> 00:14:29,610 each of the pictures up, and then they want to do it 249 00:14:29,610 --> 00:14:34,080 retroactively. And so that came up to some huge, huge number. So 250 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:40,110 they got 00 money, and they really didn't get a win except 251 00:14:40,110 --> 00:14:43,140 me. I guess it's kind of interesting, because now any 252 00:14:43,140 --> 00:14:46,800 celebrity could essentially say hey, you know, this is private, 253 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,510 I'm on vacation, screw you go, you know, eff off. Unless of 254 00:14:51,510 --> 00:14:54,270 course, it's newsworthy, and that is the big question. When 255 00:14:54,270 --> 00:14:55,290 is it newsworthy? 256 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,190 Well, according to the tabloids, anything that celebrity does is 257 00:14:59,190 --> 00:15:00,870 newsworthy. You're right. 258 00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:04,080 And of course, what was funny is everyone's showing the pictures 259 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,660 because of course, the whole conversation isn't newsworthy 260 00:15:06,660 --> 00:15:09,960 conversation. Ergo, you can show the pictures. I mean, it's the 261 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:15,570 stupid world. Like, okay, so but I do like the headlines 262 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,250 everyone's like, Oh Dutch Royals when horrible freedom on the 263 00:15:20,250 --> 00:15:22,950 prize drive, screw you then win anything. 264 00:15:24,210 --> 00:15:27,630 So here's an interesting one that's, that's floating around. 265 00:15:27,690 --> 00:15:32,940 You've read this, I'm sure. You know, the W H. O, which is weird 266 00:15:32,940 --> 00:15:33,690 operations. 267 00:15:34,260 --> 00:15:38,130 The World Health Organisation, this is the severe warning they 268 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:39,180 put out Yeah, 269 00:15:39,329 --> 00:15:42,179 yeah, no, wait, let me get this straight. Now my understanding 270 00:15:42,179 --> 00:15:47,939 is when you categorise these various viruses. One, if you 271 00:15:47,939 --> 00:15:52,769 have an h one n one type XYZ, let's say, and you have another 272 00:15:52,769 --> 00:15:58,319 h one and one type XYZ, it's the same virus. Yeah. So how do you 273 00:15:58,319 --> 00:16:00,689 have a severe version of it? Well, 274 00:16:00,750 --> 00:16:03,690 let me just say exactly what they reported. According to 275 00:16:03,690 --> 00:16:07,650 Reuters, doctors are reporting doctors quote, some Doc's and 276 00:16:07,650 --> 00:16:11,760 doctors out there are reporting a severe form of the swine flu 277 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,840 that goes straight to the lungs, John, straight to the lungs, 278 00:16:16,050 --> 00:16:19,830 causing severe illness and otherwise healthy young people, 279 00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:24,720 and requiring expensive, I love this expensive hospital 280 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,050 treatment. It really clicked for me when I read this. I'm like, 281 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,560 of course, it makes so much sense. No one wants to be caught 282 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,980 with their pants down with a very expensive treatment from 283 00:16:34,980 --> 00:16:38,760 the street to the lungs version of the flu. So we better rammed 284 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,730 some healthcare reform through there. It's I think it kind of 285 00:16:41,730 --> 00:16:44,580 fits if there was a global strategy, well done a little bit 286 00:16:44,580 --> 00:16:45,840 late, but Well done. 287 00:16:46,890 --> 00:16:50,340 Well, this is assuming that they haven't tweaked the virus just 288 00:16:50,340 --> 00:16:52,980 to make it a little more powerful. I spoke about earlier 289 00:16:53,010 --> 00:16:54,030 if you remember that, right. 290 00:16:54,180 --> 00:16:58,860 Well, yeah, of course. They're even saying that does make it so 291 00:16:58,860 --> 00:17:01,710 it kills everybody. What they're doing is they're they're now 292 00:17:01,710 --> 00:17:05,040 saying, Hey, this is exactly what happened with the 1918 flu 293 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,070 pandemic known as this the Spanish flu, which of course, is 294 00:17:08,070 --> 00:17:11,040 horseshit. Because that was completely different that 295 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,980 happened in soldiers who were sent over and ships who had been 296 00:17:14,010 --> 00:17:18,930 oh, wait a minute, vaccinated. And because of the vaccination, 297 00:17:19,170 --> 00:17:22,350 and the any vaccine, particularly with an adjuvant, 298 00:17:22,350 --> 00:17:25,890 and you know, hey, this weekend, virality, whatever the heck the 299 00:17:25,890 --> 00:17:29,490 name your show is, I may be kind of paraphrasing, but from what I 300 00:17:29,490 --> 00:17:32,730 understand is if you have severe stress levels, it can actually 301 00:17:32,730 --> 00:17:36,300 make activate a lot of shit. And it can make it worse, and it can 302 00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:41,160 wind up killing you. But it's not the same thing as the 1918 303 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,830 flu, but they're now comparing it to the 1980s. Remember, they 304 00:17:43,830 --> 00:17:47,370 dug that corpse up and got some DNA? It makes so much sense. 305 00:17:47,370 --> 00:17:51,090 John, they dug up that, that that dead dude, they got some of 306 00:17:51,090 --> 00:17:55,980 the 1918 flu, mix it up, tweaked it a little bit, and we're off 307 00:17:55,980 --> 00:17:56,910 to the races. 308 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:06,269 So I'm looking at this document saying the Spanish influenza 309 00:18:06,269 --> 00:18:10,979 epidemic of 1918 was caused by vaccinations. I didn't know they 310 00:18:10,979 --> 00:18:12,899 were giving vaccinations back then. 311 00:18:13,650 --> 00:18:15,720 But it was I don't think it was for the flu. I think it was for 312 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,120 something else. But they vaccinated all of us because 313 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,419 they get some other stuff in Yeah, yeah, they vaccinated the 314 00:18:21,419 --> 00:18:21,929 soldiers 315 00:18:21,930 --> 00:18:25,080 that were shipped over to Spain, which is why it's called the 316 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:29,340 Spanish flu. And because of the stress of being packed into 317 00:18:29,340 --> 00:18:33,900 ships at F 1918, you know, it wasn't exactly, you know, the 318 00:18:33,900 --> 00:18:40,800 Boeing luxury liner. Doctors, of course, are questioning this 319 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:45,090 even ABC News has report on that all this stuff is in the show 320 00:18:45,090 --> 00:18:47,310 notes at no agenda show.com by the way. 321 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,900 All right. Well, on the topic, let's find something 322 00:18:51,900 --> 00:18:54,720 interesting. So I was looking into this story and I ran it ran 323 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,470 into an old posting from Kelly Pandit back in April 2005. 324 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:03,690 Discussing who the who is incompetence, and mainly about 325 00:19:03,690 --> 00:19:06,750 the fact that they're trying to get baby formula to Africa and 326 00:19:06,750 --> 00:19:09,840 they claim that you need it because there's not enough 327 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:16,320 breasts I guess. But they ran into this. This what say what 328 00:19:16,770 --> 00:19:21,960 needs to be more breasts have my attention. So anyways, they're 329 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,850 just it's just a very interesting article. I'll put 330 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,760 the link I'll send you well, it's under Kelly 331 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,620 pundit.blogspot.com and it's from April 6 2005. Some of you 332 00:19:31,620 --> 00:19:36,150 have to look it up. Anyway, but he or she, I guess it must be a 333 00:19:36,150 --> 00:19:43,650 she says got an I found this interesting quote from a 1992 334 00:19:43,650 --> 00:19:48,330 book called malaria capers, for printed by Norton and coming out 335 00:19:48,330 --> 00:19:54,090 of slouch. She says read here to find out how radical activists 336 00:19:54,090 --> 00:19:57,900 have kept the safe life saving life saving insecticide DDT out 337 00:19:57,900 --> 00:20:02,670 of this paramount to mass Out of use that is paramount to mass 338 00:20:02,670 --> 00:20:06,630 murder. Oh, I'm sorry, that's population control. Go read it 339 00:20:06,630 --> 00:20:10,230 yourself. I'm not kidding. And then here's the quote from the 340 00:20:10,230 --> 00:20:13,920 book, population control advocates blamed DDT for 341 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,670 increasing third world population. In the 1960s. The 342 00:20:17,670 --> 00:20:20,340 World Health Organisation authorities believed there was 343 00:20:20,340 --> 00:20:23,910 no alternative to the overpopulation problem, but to 344 00:20:23,910 --> 00:20:29,220 assure to assure, then up to 40% of the children in poor nations 345 00:20:29,220 --> 00:20:33,330 would die malaria, as the official agency for 346 00:20:33,330 --> 00:20:37,260 international development stated, quote, rather dead than 347 00:20:37,260 --> 00:20:39,810 alive and notoriously reproducing. 348 00:20:41,700 --> 00:20:44,460 But John, are you now coming over to the dark side? Are you 349 00:20:44,460 --> 00:20:47,790 finally believe me? There's actually a group of people who 350 00:20:47,970 --> 00:20:52,170 do believe in triangulation, who are trying to kill us. And I 351 00:20:52,170 --> 00:20:54,690 would look at the Bilderberg Group, that's kind of the guys 352 00:20:54,690 --> 00:20:55,710 that I'm thinking of. 353 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,880 That's what you do. So me most people should go to the 354 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:04,230 Wikipedia and look up Margaret Shan and this is that, that Ms. 355 00:21:04,230 --> 00:21:07,620 Swan type person who's running the W H O. 356 00:21:08,010 --> 00:21:10,740 W. H. O. She is freaky. 357 00:21:11,369 --> 00:21:14,879 She was initially trained as a home economist teacher in the 358 00:21:14,879 --> 00:21:18,869 north College of Education in Hong Kong. Then she earned her 359 00:21:18,869 --> 00:21:23,309 bachelor's degree in home economics, and finally got an MD 360 00:21:23,339 --> 00:21:27,269 in the University of Western Ontario and 73 and 77 361 00:21:27,719 --> 00:21:31,469 respectively. So actually, she got her home economics degree in 362 00:21:31,469 --> 00:21:35,999 73. They got an MD and blah blah blah. 363 00:21:36,030 --> 00:21:38,610 So there's two two Doc's I want 364 00:21:38,610 --> 00:21:42,120 another lightweight that somehow got bumped into this position. 365 00:21:42,150 --> 00:21:42,780 She's a Mind 366 00:21:42,780 --> 00:21:46,350 Control Freak. She does. He does whatever it she's she could be 367 00:21:46,350 --> 00:21:52,740 Kim Jong Il's illegitimate Sr. Look at her. A white paper 368 00:21:52,830 --> 00:21:56,340 published by our favourites the RAND Corporation in March of 369 00:21:56,340 --> 00:22:02,010 this year, sponsored by Sanofi Pasteur. Of course the one of 370 00:22:02,010 --> 00:22:07,620 the makers of the h one n one vaccine identifies parental 371 00:22:07,620 --> 00:22:11,010 consent laws, medical homes and lack of access to medical 372 00:22:11,010 --> 00:22:15,600 records as main barriers for immunising low income 373 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,620 adolescents, but they have a solution. Listen to this from 374 00:22:19,620 --> 00:22:23,040 the white paper, it would appear at first blush that vaccinating 375 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,610 teens in a school setting would be a practical way to address 376 00:22:26,610 --> 00:22:29,850 the barriers posed by the lack of a medical home schools are 377 00:22:29,850 --> 00:22:32,700 the only place where the vast majority of adolescents are 378 00:22:32,700 --> 00:22:37,890 found consistently and predictably. Many of the 379 00:22:37,890 --> 00:22:41,550 barriers we identified while seemingly distinct, were tied to 380 00:22:41,550 --> 00:22:44,940 current consent laws. We found that the requirement that 381 00:22:44,940 --> 00:22:48,450 parental consent for vaccination be provided in real real time 382 00:22:48,450 --> 00:22:51,300 clearly limits the vaccination of adolescents in such venues as 383 00:22:51,300 --> 00:22:54,030 schools where parents and adolescents are not likely to be 384 00:22:54,030 --> 00:22:58,200 together. So separate them get the kids in schools and to to 385 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,710 the arm. That's nice, that's really nice. Rand Corporation. 386 00:23:02,100 --> 00:23:04,680 Meanwhile, Gitmo nation East in the United Kingdom, remember 387 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,910 those swine flu call centres they set up where you could call 388 00:23:08,910 --> 00:23:12,720 in if you if you had symptoms, so they could take you through 389 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,620 the skip logic as our friend 390 00:23:17,790 --> 00:23:21,450 we call it skip logic you did to to the arm, 391 00:23:21,690 --> 00:23:25,650 skip logic, and then you could get a swine flu buddy to go get 392 00:23:25,650 --> 00:23:30,930 some Tamiflu for you. Well, there's nothing going on. 393 00:23:30,930 --> 00:23:34,920 There's no calls coming in. In fact, the managers of these call 394 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,700 centres are allowing the people manning the phones to play 395 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,970 Trivial Pursuit and monopoly while on the job. 396 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,410 Well, at least you're doing some valuable time. 397 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,760 The ministers or the health secretary Andy Burnham of the 398 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,750 UK, who of course you know, they put 100,000 people on the phones 399 00:23:54,750 --> 00:24:00,210 you know, it's a 40 million pound operation and that these 400 00:24:00,210 --> 00:24:03,720 folks are basically being paid to play Monopoly and probably 401 00:24:04,230 --> 00:24:09,000 solitaire on their on their PCs way to go dudes way to go. 402 00:24:09,030 --> 00:24:10,950 Hey, by the way, a few people out there are gonna play 403 00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:15,390 solitaire on the PC, play spider. With a full deck with 404 00:24:15,390 --> 00:24:18,120 all with all the chutes. It's it's very, that'll keep you 405 00:24:18,120 --> 00:24:20,460 busy. You only you know, once you learn how to play the game, 406 00:24:20,460 --> 00:24:23,460 right? You went about 3% of the time, but three games out of 100 407 00:24:23,670 --> 00:24:25,260 That's very good, time consuming game. 408 00:24:25,290 --> 00:24:30,210 Another John C. Dvorak. No job having tip. Yes. So you know, 409 00:24:30,210 --> 00:24:32,070 for those of you listening to us, or maybe you're new to the 410 00:24:32,070 --> 00:24:34,800 show, you're thinking, what are these two jabroni is talking 411 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,980 about, you know, vaccination is, you know, I just want to say on 412 00:24:37,980 --> 00:24:42,420 this very programme about a year ago, I certainly was telling 413 00:24:42,420 --> 00:24:47,370 you, anyone who had daughters, please do not let them get 414 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:52,590 vaccinated with this Gardasil crap. This is the HPV anti 415 00:24:52,590 --> 00:24:57,000 cervical cancer drug, which was poorly tested, was known to only 416 00:24:57,150 --> 00:25:02,730 maybe protect a child against are a female against seven of 417 00:25:02,730 --> 00:25:05,880 the 12 possible types of cervical cancer. And by the way, 418 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,510 you have to have sex to actually be infected with servo. In this 419 00:25:09,510 --> 00:25:12,660 case for this type of cervical cancer, there are so many 420 00:25:12,660 --> 00:25:17,070 stories coming out. And this is one from examiner.com, which 421 00:25:17,070 --> 00:25:20,700 will be in the show notes, just to show you that we are not 422 00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:29,310 entirely nuts. There are stories here on this on this one page 423 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:35,730 that are just gut wrenching when you read about girls that died 424 00:25:35,730 --> 00:25:40,320 that it became paralysed, and you know, and we're healthy 425 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,310 16 1718 year old girls, and they took the first shot, they had to 426 00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:46,800 come back for the second shot by the way, the shots like 300 427 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:51,030 bucks a pop, third shot, boom, they die. And there's just 428 00:25:51,270 --> 00:25:54,810 tonnes and tonnes of stories from all over the world all 429 00:25:54,810 --> 00:26:01,710 related to this to this horrible so called vaccine, which of 430 00:26:01,710 --> 00:26:06,360 course was as far as I can tell, probably not a part of the out 431 00:26:06,360 --> 00:26:12,990 to kill us scheme but more like a way to make up for the Vioxx 432 00:26:12,990 --> 00:26:16,740 that that of course was taken off the market, they had to come 433 00:26:16,740 --> 00:26:18,690 up with another money making scheme. 434 00:26:21,630 --> 00:26:22,650 It's all about the money 435 00:26:24,060 --> 00:26:25,080 and to kill us. 436 00:26:25,410 --> 00:26:27,300 So do we have some clips from me? 437 00:26:27,869 --> 00:26:31,049 I got some clips from you. And I got some clips from me. You 438 00:26:31,049 --> 00:26:31,589 wanted to play 439 00:26:31,590 --> 00:26:34,680 one of my clips? Yeah, sure. Just run the target talking 440 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,490 about the medical system. I got a kick out of this one this 441 00:26:38,490 --> 00:26:43,200 woman. This is a kind of a long clip because she's too chatty. 442 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,420 And I couldn't really cut it down that much. But you can 443 00:26:45,540 --> 00:26:51,960 interrupt it as you normally do this with Sally Sue Patel. And 444 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,690 she just finished a book she was on C span. She just finished the 445 00:26:54,690 --> 00:26:57,480 button book talk. She just finished a book called when 446 00:26:57,510 --> 00:27:02,250 altruism isn't enough. And it discusses essentially the idea 447 00:27:02,250 --> 00:27:02,670 explain 448 00:27:02,670 --> 00:27:05,460 the world. The word altruism, John I don't think 449 00:27:06,180 --> 00:27:10,260 you do. It's like doing something for nothing. In fact, 450 00:27:10,260 --> 00:27:12,690 what she's talking about specifically, is people who give 451 00:27:12,690 --> 00:27:18,450 away a kidney to save somebody else's life. Which is a really 452 00:27:18,450 --> 00:27:21,300 an altruistic thing to do. And she points out that you know, 453 00:27:21,300 --> 00:27:24,900 everybody in the process, from the kidney bank, to the doctors, 454 00:27:24,900 --> 00:27:28,020 to the nurses to everybody and their sister in the hospitals, 455 00:27:28,020 --> 00:27:31,380 they're all making money on this transaction, except the person 456 00:27:31,380 --> 00:27:33,030 who actually gave their kidney, 457 00:27:33,540 --> 00:27:36,510 this big money in them spare parts. 458 00:27:37,140 --> 00:27:40,860 And so as she makes the argument that there shouldn't be a market 459 00:27:40,860 --> 00:27:45,300 for certain things. The words if you feel like selling your 460 00:27:45,300 --> 00:27:50,430 kidney for $50,000, cuz you could use the money. And you're 461 00:27:50,430 --> 00:27:51,060 healthy. 462 00:27:51,090 --> 00:27:53,940 You should be able to do that. Yeah, well, this is what this is 463 00:27:53,940 --> 00:27:56,520 what these guys New Jersey, we're doing right? The Rabbi's 464 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,560 that were all involved with Oregon trade. I mean, it's a 465 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,030 billion dollar business, 466 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,020 did the ideas that shouldn't be legalised? She thinks and you 467 00:28:04,020 --> 00:28:06,240 know, even though I know what the counter argument is, well, 468 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,850 if that's true, then everybody in China will be given up their 469 00:28:08,850 --> 00:28:11,970 kidneys because you know, it's going to be a human, you know, 470 00:28:11,970 --> 00:28:14,370 disastrous humaneness. And then the other thing, so she goes on 471 00:28:14,370 --> 00:28:18,120 and on, she discusses part of this. And then at the very end, 472 00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:20,520 that's why he had those in the whole thing. You all of a sudden 473 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,490 realise, oh, wait a minute, there is a vested interest in 474 00:28:23,490 --> 00:28:26,580 here in this in this whole scheme of things to actually 475 00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:30,390 keep kidneys off the market. I wonder what group could that be? 476 00:28:30,390 --> 00:28:33,930 And you kind of listen to this saves money and saves lives. 477 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,150 Thank you for bringing up to the public in the book. In fact, one 478 00:28:39,150 --> 00:28:42,180 of the appendices is, well, that's funny. 479 00:28:42,210 --> 00:28:45,510 I love how she slips in appendices. No, no pun intended, 480 00:28:45,510 --> 00:28:46,080 by the way, 481 00:28:46,950 --> 00:28:51,690 covers the literature on on polling data. And there have 482 00:28:51,690 --> 00:28:58,200 been surveys and polls done and great preponderance of of these 483 00:28:59,070 --> 00:29:02,730 surveys have found that the majority of people are very 484 00:29:02,730 --> 00:29:07,650 receptive to this concept. And surprisingly, so even because 485 00:29:07,650 --> 00:29:10,620 they've often been in these questionnaires have often set up 486 00:29:10,650 --> 00:29:15,270 a market system, you know, these are your choices we pay, or we 487 00:29:15,270 --> 00:29:18,960 do this or we do that, but cash is one of the and still people 488 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,500 will say this is something we should think about. So that's I 489 00:29:22,500 --> 00:29:23,370 think you're right and 490 00:29:23,850 --> 00:29:26,310 soft. I'm liking this. I'm thinking we need to set up a 491 00:29:26,310 --> 00:29:29,010 trading system, John, whether this could be a complete 492 00:29:29,550 --> 00:29:33,870 computerised market, like cap and trade, or you know, like 493 00:29:33,870 --> 00:29:34,800 pork bellies. 494 00:29:35,700 --> 00:29:36,420 Anyway going 495 00:29:36,510 --> 00:29:39,420 on the case, I think when the public is way out ahead of the 496 00:29:39,570 --> 00:29:44,190 experts, the as I alluded to before, and you asked about 497 00:29:44,190 --> 00:29:50,460 where the resistance is coming from. One major obstacle is the 498 00:29:50,460 --> 00:29:54,120 National Kidney Foundation. They're cheap and cheapening the 499 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,750 gift and logic that I find kind of inscrutable. What's 500 00:29:57,750 --> 00:30:00,660 especially surprising about the National Kidney Fund Vation is 501 00:30:00,660 --> 00:30:04,080 that they were once very much in favour of doing pilot studies on 502 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:10,440 incentives, up until the early 90s, late late, or women through 503 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:15,030 the 90s, excuse me, they kind of changed their tune in 2000. And 504 00:30:15,030 --> 00:30:17,850 I have theories, although frankly, I'm not exactly sure 505 00:30:17,850 --> 00:30:21,180 why I think it had to do with a change in membership of their 506 00:30:21,180 --> 00:30:25,500 board. There's someone on it, who is a very outspoken 507 00:30:25,500 --> 00:30:31,260 opponent. And so the National Kidney Foundation is not much of 508 00:30:31,260 --> 00:30:35,670 a help to us here. And unfortunately, they are 509 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,570 considered, they are considered a grassroots organisation. 510 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,150 They're not a grassroots organisation. They're an 511 00:30:42,150 --> 00:30:49,170 organisation of professionals. They have close ties with the 512 00:30:49,170 --> 00:30:51,780 dialysis industry, which is which is fine. You want the 513 00:30:51,780 --> 00:30:55,380 dialysis industry to have the best. I'd love to be out of 514 00:30:55,380 --> 00:30:57,870 business, but not because they're a bad industry. I just 515 00:30:57,870 --> 00:30:59,490 wish people didn't need dialysis. 516 00:30:59,550 --> 00:31:04,590 Yeah, there you go. Yeah. That dialysis dialysis Of course. 517 00:31:04,620 --> 00:31:08,760 Yeah, that makes so much sense. You know, I have to say, of 518 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,130 course, you know, I think there's its strongest argument 519 00:31:11,130 --> 00:31:15,180 against a free trade in Oregon's is that, you know, the worry 520 00:31:15,180 --> 00:31:18,390 would then be that people with no money wouldn't be able to 521 00:31:18,390 --> 00:31:23,550 afford the spare parts. But are you allowed to donate your own 522 00:31:23,550 --> 00:31:27,600 kidney to your own child or parent or our friend or anybody 523 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,300 who wants to you're allowed to do that, right? Yeah, 524 00:31:31,109 --> 00:31:36,869 that was a hilarious 30 aka the episode this last season where 525 00:31:36,869 --> 00:31:42,539 this guy finally finally finds his his dad. And then the first 526 00:31:42,539 --> 00:31:45,479 thing that dad wants is his kidney, because it got a bad 527 00:31:45,479 --> 00:31:48,419 kidney.

You worked for Bob Rubin who ran 595 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,910 Goldman Sachs before he was treasury. I worked for him as a 596 00:35:53,910 --> 00:35:54,180 civil 597 00:35:54,180 --> 00:35:56,850 servant. I love how he's like saying I'm not a part of Goldman 598 00:35:56,850 --> 00:35:59,070 Sachs. I'm not part of those guys. I have nothing to do with 599 00:35:59,070 --> 00:36:01,830 them. I just worked for them as a civil servant at the Treasury. 600 00:36:03,150 --> 00:36:04,950 But while he was treasury secretary 601 00:36:04,980 --> 00:36:07,050 and while he was Treasury deputy, not not at Goldman Sachs 602 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,240 he was he wasn't a GM they had nothing to do with Goldman and 603 00:36:09,240 --> 00:36:09,750 nothing at all had 604 00:36:09,750 --> 00:36:12,810 a Goldman Sachs radical Messiah you Hank Paulson, Timmy 605 00:36:12,810 --> 00:36:13,380 Geithner, 606 00:36:13,410 --> 00:36:16,560 Timmy Geithner, do you think that kid was like pestered at 607 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:21,090 school with that big head his like, Timmy is a dork and he 608 00:36:21,090 --> 00:36:22,470 can't get laid and 609 00:36:22,470 --> 00:36:25,410 was your predecessor as Secretary of the Treasury? He 610 00:36:25,410 --> 00:36:27,690 ran Goldman Sachs, Steve Friedman, who was co head of 611 00:36:27,690 --> 00:36:30,420 Goldman Sachs was the chairman of your board that we might 612 00:36:30,420 --> 00:36:32,100 request at your request 613 00:36:32,130 --> 00:36:33,810 and my request, but I have nothing to do with Goldman 614 00:36:33,810 --> 00:36:36,360 Sachs. It was my request my request. 615 00:36:37,140 --> 00:36:39,870 Yeah. To the New York Federal Reserve Board. I think you have 616 00:36:39,870 --> 00:36:44,070 some Goldman stuff. Your Chief of Staff was a lobbyist for 617 00:36:44,070 --> 00:36:45,780 Goldman Sachs. Oh, I thought 618 00:36:45,780 --> 00:36:50,220 we wouldn't have any lobbyists. I'm mistaken. That can't be that 619 00:36:50,220 --> 00:36:53,190 cannot be happening. Because there's no lobbyist here. I 620 00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:54,930 think it well, you really made the same as you're gonna have 621 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,750 only lobbyists. Oh, okay. I misunderstood. 622 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,750 Yeah, clearly, this makes some people nervous. These are, 623 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,390 let me just say these are deeply honourable men. 624 00:37:04,830 --> 00:37:09,330 That's where I lost it. These are deeply honourable men. Oh, 625 00:37:09,330 --> 00:37:12,750 yes. These are men who are deeply honourable. 626 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,630 Great, helpless, deeply honourable. You gotta keep that 627 00:37:15,630 --> 00:37:16,920 clip. Great public 628 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,750 statesman, okay. 629 00:37:19,050 --> 00:37:21,600 Willing to come through their country. Dude, if you 630 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:27,450 asked me to be in the treasury, I'd show up. I'd be there in a 631 00:37:27,450 --> 00:37:33,750 heartbeat. No problemo, buddy. I'd be deeply, deeply dedicated 632 00:37:33,750 --> 00:37:34,710 and exceptional and 633 00:37:34,710 --> 00:37:37,650 very challenging times and give them a metal Timmy did 634 00:37:37,650 --> 00:37:39,930 exceptionally good things for the country. It's very important 635 00:37:39,930 --> 00:37:41,700 to recognise that we're in. 636 00:37:42,299 --> 00:37:44,819 I wish he could tell us which exceptionally good things they 637 00:37:44,819 --> 00:37:47,669 did for the country. But he kind of skips we have to recognise 638 00:37:47,669 --> 00:37:49,979 that besides the point Yeah. recognise it no matter we have 639 00:37:49,979 --> 00:37:53,999 to recognise it you shall recognise recognise exactly what 640 00:37:53,999 --> 00:37:59,159 they did you fools don't you understand? You will. 641 00:38:01,140 --> 00:38:04,650 position where this government was forced to do exceptional 642 00:38:04,650 --> 00:38:08,010 things to save the economy from the brink of catastrophe. 643 00:38:08,820 --> 00:38:12,090 Which of course hasn't worked, because we're still on the 644 00:38:12,090 --> 00:38:12,600 brink? 645 00:38:12,900 --> 00:38:15,660 Would we be changed it save us from the brink? Shouldn't we be 646 00:38:15,660 --> 00:38:17,730 saving us from the catastrophe? No, just 647 00:38:17,940 --> 00:38:21,840 no big deal, just just the break. And the people in this 648 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,660 country need to make sure we have people in these jobs here 649 00:38:24,660 --> 00:38:28,080 with experience and markets. So that as we negotiate with 650 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,350 these experience in manipulating markets firms, 651 00:38:31,710 --> 00:38:34,050 to make to protect the taxpayer, make sure we're getting our 652 00:38:34,050 --> 00:38:36,810 money back, that we have people that understand these markets 653 00:38:36,810 --> 00:38:39,270 can actually understand them. So we will always be as the 654 00:38:39,270 --> 00:38:42,270 Treasury has always done. We will always be looking to people 655 00:38:42,270 --> 00:38:45,360 with experience in the financial community, in business community 656 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,610 coming in these jobs, because that is important for the 657 00:38:47,610 --> 00:38:48,750 American people. And so there 658 00:38:48,750 --> 00:38:53,010 was no one else of all the all the financial wizards in the 659 00:38:53,010 --> 00:38:55,980 world. They all had to come from Goldman Sachs because they're 660 00:38:55,980 --> 00:38:58,890 exceptional men who are dedicated to their country. It's 661 00:38:58,890 --> 00:39:03,180 impossible to find them anywhere else at Goldman is why they're 662 00:39:03,180 --> 00:39:08,160 the Valhalla of finance. Wouldn't you agree John? Must be 663 00:39:08,250 --> 00:39:11,760 just one one important fact. You know, we're making some progress 664 00:39:11,790 --> 00:39:16,500 in banker bankrupting the country ready in walking back 665 00:39:16,530 --> 00:39:19,170 some of the broad and investment walking back 666 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,740 some of the what is I love not seeing the video. I love just 667 00:39:22,740 --> 00:39:24,870 listening to it because the words have so much more 668 00:39:24,870 --> 00:39:27,990 important importance when he says we're having some success 669 00:39:28,020 --> 00:39:31,320 walking back some of the what does that mean walking it back? 670 00:39:33,750 --> 00:39:35,520 Guys worse than Vivek Kundra, 671 00:39:35,550 --> 00:39:38,310 is it like a fanny pack full of money or something coming 672 00:39:38,310 --> 00:39:41,010 walking back? Oh, hey, Timmy. Here's your money 673 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,440 said I'm gonna have to make an industry and we're doing a 674 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,170 relatively good job that earn a good return for the taxpayer. 675 00:39:46,170 --> 00:39:50,280 Just to give you one example. The average return we've had on 676 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,580 the $80 billion of capital of investments that government made 677 00:39:53,580 --> 00:39:57,660 that we've now had repaid. The average return for us is roughly 678 00:39:57,660 --> 00:39:59,100 60% an annual rate 679 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:05,160 A 16% annual rate so that doesn't mean they actually pay 680 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,850 the money back. That's just the sick they're paying 16% interest 681 00:40:08,850 --> 00:40:09,780 or I don't know 682 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,930 it's vague to me it's very clean it's paid back a bunch it was 683 00:40:12,930 --> 00:40:14,640 paid back by Goldman I did which they use 684 00:40:15,450 --> 00:40:18,840 the gold the gold listen to it says it's the Goldman deal. I 685 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:20,850 think we're the Goldman thing he calls it. 686 00:40:21,540 --> 00:40:23,970 A Goldman Sachs investment higher than that higher than 687 00:40:23,970 --> 00:40:24,240 six. 688 00:40:24,299 --> 00:40:26,849 I think the Goldman thing is in the in the mid 20s, the Goldman 689 00:40:26,849 --> 00:40:30,989 thing, okay, one thing, it's the thing, all right, at Goldman, we 690 00:40:30,989 --> 00:40:32,009 have things. 691 00:40:32,460 --> 00:40:37,890 But the important thing is that you need to have people in these 692 00:40:37,890 --> 00:40:40,950 jobs. These are complicated, difficult in any times, they're 693 00:40:40,950 --> 00:40:42,660 exceptionally difficult, complicated. And it's kind of 694 00:40:42,660 --> 00:40:44,670 crisis like this. And the American people need to have 695 00:40:44,670 --> 00:40:47,580 people here who understand and can negotiate effectively can be 696 00:40:47,580 --> 00:40:49,950 the other side of things to make sure we're protecting the 697 00:40:49,950 --> 00:40:52,110 financial interest of the American people. 698 00:40:52,410 --> 00:40:55,860 And I totally agree. It's just it's amazing that they're only 699 00:40:55,890 --> 00:40:59,040 to be found the Goldman Sachs now, I've got another clip, 700 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,820 which is about all the phone calls that went back and forth 701 00:41:02,820 --> 00:41:06,270 between Paulson and the CEO of Goldman Sachs. Of course, this 702 00:41:06,270 --> 00:41:09,450 is what Paulson was being interrogated about, 703 00:41:09,690 --> 00:41:12,420 like Paulson didn't do email. I hope this is more interesting. 704 00:41:12,420 --> 00:41:15,480 In the last clip, you didn't like that clip? No, it was kind 705 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:15,900 of boring. 706 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,260 Well, I think you'll find this one rather interesting, because 707 00:41:19,410 --> 00:41:22,740 now he actually explains with all these exceptional men did 708 00:41:22,740 --> 00:41:24,900 see you've got to listen to these things in secret. 709 00:41:25,260 --> 00:41:29,340 Key period last September, September 15, Lehman Brothers is 710 00:41:29,340 --> 00:41:32,670 allowed to fail Lehmann, a major competitor of Goldman Sachs. 711 00:41:33,090 --> 00:41:36,300 Next day, AIG is bailed out. 712 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,480 And of course, $8 billion of that bailout went straight to 713 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:40,770 Goldman Sachs, the government, 714 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,950 AIG was on the other side of numerous credit default swaps 715 00:41:43,950 --> 00:41:47,370 that Goldman Sachs was involved in. During that week. We now 716 00:41:47,370 --> 00:41:50,160 know that Lloyd Blankfein, the head of Goldman Sachs was on the 717 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,570 phone a couple dozen times with Secretary Paulson, talking about 718 00:41:54,570 --> 00:41:58,320 their golf game. He says he was on the phone, some with you that 719 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:03,720 same week. Are you surprised that that gives people a sense 720 00:42:03,720 --> 00:42:07,050 of inappropriate contact between these Institute's 721 00:42:07,500 --> 00:42:10,560 listen closely to what he says about these exceptional men, all 722 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:14,070 these great guys at Goldman Sachs, all these statesmen, all 723 00:42:14,070 --> 00:42:16,440 these patriots, what they do, 724 00:42:17,100 --> 00:42:19,560 like the things we've been through as a country, we still 725 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,890 face have made the American people just deeply angry and 726 00:42:22,890 --> 00:42:28,110 frustrated and the Angley Angley cup sceptical about the quality 727 00:42:28,110 --> 00:42:30,240 of judges made by this government. It's a completely 728 00:42:30,240 --> 00:42:33,270 understandable thing. And we have been forced to do just 729 00:42:33,270 --> 00:42:36,090 extraordinary things, and in frankly, offensive things. 730 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:42,240 Thank you. offensive things. So what is it extraordinary 731 00:42:42,270 --> 00:42:43,080 offensive 732 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,110 to help save the economy from the risk of even more 733 00:42:46,110 --> 00:42:50,040 catastrophic damage? And that requires and required us in part 734 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,160 because we have so poor tools coming into this, doing things 735 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,920 that are going to be deeply unpopular, but we do them not 736 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,260 for the benefit of any institution. And I am completely 737 00:42:58,260 --> 00:43:00,630 confident that None None of those decisions that you refer 738 00:43:00,630 --> 00:43:03,810 to anything to do with a specific interest of any 739 00:43:03,810 --> 00:43:05,550 individual for much less Goldman Sachs, 740 00:43:05,670 --> 00:43:10,740 what does that mean much less Goldman Sachs? Take it from 741 00:43:10,740 --> 00:43:14,340 Timmy. Timmy says I am completely confident there was 742 00:43:14,340 --> 00:43:20,190 no gambling going on here. I won't play the rest of it is 743 00:43:21,450 --> 00:43:24,600 to discuss that he apparently he's not going to say anything. 744 00:43:24,989 --> 00:43:27,539 You want to hear his answer about his own tax evasion. 745 00:43:29,550 --> 00:43:32,400 Oh, yeah, yeah, he That's right. Forgot he's a tax evader. 746 00:43:32,430 --> 00:43:36,450 Yeah, like seven years worth of taxes. He Oh, I'm sorry, I 747 00:43:36,450 --> 00:43:39,240 forgot to pay. So of course, the question is, Hey, is it too 748 00:43:39,240 --> 00:43:41,550 difficult to figure out what you're supposed to pay in taxes, 749 00:43:41,550 --> 00:43:41,940 Timmy 750 00:43:41,970 --> 00:43:45,780 from his went coast 690 digs, you failed to pay some of your 751 00:43:45,780 --> 00:43:50,790 federal taxes in 2001 2000 to 2003 2004. Please explain. 752 00:43:51,180 --> 00:43:53,070 You've explained it before. They're asking you to explain. 753 00:43:53,070 --> 00:43:53,190 He's 754 00:43:53,190 --> 00:43:56,040 actually saying you've explained it before. Please explain it 755 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,890 again. What does he do? He doesn't explain it again. 756 00:43:58,950 --> 00:44:02,100 I have no, it's understandable thing. I was the President's 757 00:44:02,100 --> 00:44:05,220 nominee to be Secretary of Treasury. You would expect my 758 00:44:05,220 --> 00:44:08,160 tax history to be of interest American people. It's completely 759 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,800 understandable thing. And one great strength about our system 760 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:12,660 is that people who are asked to do these jobs, 761 00:44:12,690 --> 00:44:15,750 this is this is great. He's already gone off to another 762 00:44:15,750 --> 00:44:18,300 topic. He's not he's not answering your question, 763 00:44:18,540 --> 00:44:21,330 have to go through an exceptionally careful review of 764 00:44:21,330 --> 00:44:24,360 their entire financial personal professional history. That's 765 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,210 good. And a great strength of our system is all that 766 00:44:27,210 --> 00:44:30,300 information was put in the public domain. Congress of the 767 00:44:30,300 --> 00:44:32,130 United States had the opportunity Goethe makes me 768 00:44:32,130 --> 00:44:32,580 puke. 769 00:44:32,610 --> 00:44:35,670 We're transparent. That's what that's all he's gonna say. He 770 00:44:35,670 --> 00:44:38,340 doesn't ask doesn't answer the question. Just says it's really 771 00:44:38,340 --> 00:44:40,590 good that everyone could find out about it, isn't it? Wasn't 772 00:44:40,590 --> 00:44:44,910 that really good? That was fabulous. So of course, the 773 00:44:44,910 --> 00:44:49,620 reason why Timmy Geithner is interesting is he's part of this 774 00:44:49,620 --> 00:44:56,100 lawsuit now. That is ongoing about. I think Bloomberg. We 775 00:44:56,100 --> 00:44:59,490 talked about this months and months ago. Bloomberg is suing 776 00:44:59,490 --> 00:45:02,640 the federal reserve, not the Treasury necessarily, but the 777 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:08,400 Treasury, of course involved to find out who the Federal Reserve 778 00:45:08,430 --> 00:45:14,970 Lent $2 trillion worth of money, our money to what banks that was 779 00:45:14,970 --> 00:45:18,300 and of course, the Federal Reserve says, We can't tell you 780 00:45:18,300 --> 00:45:22,050 that. That's your money you're not supposed to know. And then 781 00:45:22,050 --> 00:45:28,350 we have Dr. Ron Paul, Congressman Ron Paul's bill, HR 782 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,730 1207, which calls for an audit of the Federal Reserve and the 783 00:45:32,730 --> 00:45:35,370 Federal Reserve is saying, Oh, well, we can't do that. We have 784 00:45:35,370 --> 00:45:39,270 to separate monetary policy from politics. We don't want the 785 00:45:39,270 --> 00:45:42,210 politicians messing around with that. Do we not in our private 786 00:45:42,210 --> 00:45:45,450 little affairs, a little bank, our our little scam is going on 787 00:45:45,450 --> 00:45:52,080 here. But Barney Frank slips up, John, and he says that HR 1207, 788 00:45:52,260 --> 00:45:56,430 Ron Paul's bill, to audit, the Federal Reserve will actually 789 00:45:56,610 --> 00:46:03,450 pass the House in October. What you said would never happen. No, 790 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:04,740 you want to hear him say it. 791 00:46:05,940 --> 00:46:08,640 No, I'm not saying that. He didn't say it. I'm just saying 792 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,670 this. This the Federal Reserve is not going to get audited. 793 00:46:12,450 --> 00:46:14,220 Barney Frank says it's gonna happen. 794 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:16,350 Barney Frank 795 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:21,360 Twinkletoes. Barney Frank says it's gonna happen. Well, the his 796 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,490 actual words are, you'll find the 797 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,210 you try to understand his actual words. And he's like, sounds 798 00:46:27,210 --> 00:46:28,530 like he's got a mouthful of mush. 799 00:46:28,739 --> 00:46:31,409 Oh, hold on a second. It's not it's pretty easy to understand. 800 00:46:31,409 --> 00:46:36,239 And I'll fast forward to the I'm running a prostitution ring from 801 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:42,119 my house in Washington, DC. And but that's okay. Because let me 802 00:46:42,119 --> 00:46:43,949 fast forward to the bit. We're actually says it. 803 00:46:45,390 --> 00:46:48,030 We are going to put some constraints on it. Finally, we 804 00:46:48,030 --> 00:46:52,260 will subject them to compete on I've been working with Ron Paul 805 00:46:52,290 --> 00:46:58,860 to make sure that he agrees that we don't want to have the audit 806 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,800 appear as if it is influencing monetary policy. Could 807 00:47:03,930 --> 00:47:08,490 we also take one of these interesting, so the reason why 808 00:47:08,970 --> 00:47:14,610 he said it would if it would create an inflationary run. So I 809 00:47:14,610 --> 00:47:18,150 guess the whole the whole thought behind this is if they 810 00:47:18,150 --> 00:47:21,330 find out which banks were lent all this money, people would 811 00:47:21,330 --> 00:47:23,700 have a run on that bank and would pull their money out and 812 00:47:23,700 --> 00:47:26,520 that would be an inflationary Ron, is that what happened, Mr. 813 00:47:26,580 --> 00:47:27,240 Economist? 814 00:47:28,410 --> 00:47:30,660 Well, I'm not Mr. Economist by any means. But I can tell you 815 00:47:30,660 --> 00:47:33,900 this much of my bet I found out my bank had a whole crapload of 816 00:47:33,900 --> 00:47:36,540 money, I'd feel a lot more secure. Bank, I wouldn't go take 817 00:47:36,540 --> 00:47:39,420 the money out. Oh, exactly. Well, besides that, if all your 818 00:47:39,420 --> 00:47:41,580 money's insured anyway, this whole thing is not going to 819 00:47:41,580 --> 00:47:44,070 create if they're starting to talk about an inflationary run. 820 00:47:44,070 --> 00:47:45,930 They're trying to set up, you know, 821 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,650 set up a bank, they're trying to they're trying to set up a bank 822 00:47:49,650 --> 00:47:51,360 to fail. That's what they're doing. They're going to set up 823 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,240 some banks to go down here. Listen to Barney last last 30 824 00:47:54,240 --> 00:47:54,870 seconds, I'll 825 00:47:54,870 --> 00:47:58,560 show you what the Federal Reserve by themselves and that 826 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,740 will be made COVID are not instantly, because that would 827 00:48:01,740 --> 00:48:04,260 mean instantly you would have a lot of people trading off that 828 00:48:04,290 --> 00:48:06,480 would have too much impact on the market, you can recruit for 829 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:10,080 that. So we will probably have that data we'll reach out to a 830 00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:13,800 time period of several months enough time so it wouldn't be 831 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:17,010 market sensitive. That will be part of the overall federal 832 00:48:17,010 --> 00:48:21,120 regulation that we are adopting a year from now. The past 833 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:21,930 probably in October, 834 00:48:22,020 --> 00:48:25,350 vago The House will pass it probably in October. Okay. 835 00:48:25,350 --> 00:48:25,890 Barney Frank. 836 00:48:27,030 --> 00:48:30,210 Yeah, okay. Well, they probably will pass it maybe. Anyway. Bite 837 00:48:30,210 --> 00:48:32,820 law just sent me an interesting thing, which is Geithner's 838 00:48:33,420 --> 00:48:38,250 notice of resignation. Why took the job he hears not of his 839 00:48:38,250 --> 00:48:41,880 resignation to his other things when he took the job. Oh, he had 840 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,310 to resign from a bunch of things to take the government job 841 00:48:44,310 --> 00:48:45,270 right? Yeah, it was only 842 00:48:45,270 --> 00:48:48,720 public service. Only no public service only he was a public 843 00:48:48,720 --> 00:48:50,190 servant. He just told us so. 844 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,760 Well, that may be true. We but he said But here's what it says 845 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,430 in his little note that he signed by the way his signature 846 00:48:56,430 --> 00:48:59,670 is very strange. Upon confirmation, I will also 847 00:48:59,670 --> 00:49:02,340 resigned from my positions with the following entities the 848 00:49:02,340 --> 00:49:05,580 Centre for Global Development Board member the Economic Club 849 00:49:05,580 --> 00:49:10,200 of New York trustee, the RAND Corporation trustee the 850 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,560 Partnership for New York City X official board member the 851 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:15,930 National Academy Foundation Board Member director 852 00:49:15,930 --> 00:49:19,500 International Rescue Committee overseer that Trilateral 853 00:49:19,500 --> 00:49:23,700 Commission, Bada bing, there you go baby.

That needs 886 00:51:12,450 --> 00:51:14,790 to be discussed a little bit since we were still in medical 887 00:51:14,790 --> 00:51:17,640 for a while. I wanted to get this out of the way. Which is, 888 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,040 you know, one of our commercials which has the disclaimers, the 889 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:20,250 one. 890 00:51:20,460 --> 00:51:23,310 Oh, yes, of course disclaimers as we know, look at your pack of 891 00:51:23,310 --> 00:51:26,010 cigarettes, when it says that you will die a horrible painful 892 00:51:26,010 --> 00:51:29,850 death, it actually triggers your brain to want to buy them. 893 00:51:30,510 --> 00:51:33,360 Now this one is for some I'm gonna get a set up on this. This 894 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,690 one's for some Alta, which is an anti Depression, depression 895 00:51:36,750 --> 00:51:39,360 drug. And if you can listen to the beginning, we might have to 896 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,250 play it over at the very beginning. You hear somebody 897 00:51:41,250 --> 00:51:44,460 laughing, huh? And then you hear some birds tweeting, tweet, 898 00:51:44,460 --> 00:51:47,670 tweet, tweet. Very important, very little pitch about why what 899 00:51:47,670 --> 00:51:49,890 depression is all about? And she says you can't do you want to 900 00:51:49,890 --> 00:51:53,670 meet people and then there's a dog bark. Just in the middle of 901 00:51:53,670 --> 00:51:56,070 nowhere. It's very interesting. The subtleties behind 902 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:58,290 you know, they research that shit. You know, they've 903 00:51:58,290 --> 00:51:59,370 researched all that 904 00:51:59,370 --> 00:52:02,610 stuff. Yeah, absolutely. You get you're looking to the dog bark 905 00:52:02,610 --> 00:52:06,510 woof. Anyway, so And there's all subtle, but then when she kicks 906 00:52:06,510 --> 00:52:09,450 into her, this girl who's the announcer was quite good. But 907 00:52:09,450 --> 00:52:12,510 then they obviously they taken the part where she has all the 908 00:52:12,510 --> 00:52:15,720 disclaimers, and they've sped her up. And they've also clipped 909 00:52:15,720 --> 00:52:18,120 out a lot of the whitespace. In fact, there's one spot where 910 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:19,950 John was talking over herself. 911 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,770 You know, we could do a three hour show if we did that if we 912 00:52:22,770 --> 00:52:24,870 sped it up and cut out the white spaces. 913 00:52:26,190 --> 00:52:29,520 Exactly. Now wants you to play this but the thing that's 914 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:33,990 noteworthy bring up at the end, it's very short, pro and then a 915 00:52:33,990 --> 00:52:36,480 very long the disclaimers are believable. 916 00:52:36,510 --> 00:52:39,000 Okay, this is the commercial for Cymbalta. 917 00:52:40,140 --> 00:52:45,540 When you're depressed, where do you want to go?

Yeah, I 942 00:54:07,590 --> 00:54:10,590 heard the tweet tweet I heard the dog and I love the music and 943 00:54:10,590 --> 00:54:13,230 how it you know kind of like a this depressing it's like you 944 00:54:13,230 --> 00:54:17,940 know you want to it's like a Leonard Cohen vibe there. 945 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,270 Here's what's interesting. The the sales pitch at the 946 00:54:21,270 --> 00:54:23,880 beginning, which was very short. It wasn't much of a sales pitch. 947 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:25,950 It just kind of depressing in itself. You know, you want a 948 00:54:25,950 --> 00:54:30,300 people you can you get Yeah, it's actually very 20 seconds. 949 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:34,050 The commercial had to run one minute and 950 00:54:34,110 --> 00:54:38,490 15 seconds. Yeah. So it was actually the whole commercial. 951 00:54:38,490 --> 00:54:41,580 The whole commercial length is all the disclaimer of all the 952 00:54:41,580 --> 00:54:44,700 good stuff.

I made 991 00:56:59,550 --> 00:57:04,320 a mistake and clicking on it. sent us another document, which 992 00:57:04,410 --> 00:57:08,640 is Geithner's financial disclosures. And in there, he 993 00:57:08,970 --> 00:57:11,820 did not list the Trilateral Commission 994 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:17,730 who missed one Timmy, talking about our friend Vivec. He's 995 00:57:17,730 --> 00:57:21,720 overseeing Yeah, he's overseeing another fantastic project. Of 996 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:25,560 course, the $18 million website. Oh, no, much better than that, 997 00:57:25,650 --> 00:57:27,930 you know, the TSA, the Transportation Security 998 00:57:27,930 --> 00:57:32,910 Administration, they have a lot of IT systems that, of course, 999 00:57:33,450 --> 00:57:37,290 you know, if those were, you know, hacked, for any reason, 1000 00:57:37,290 --> 00:57:39,750 you know, that could be serious business, you know, they might 1001 00:57:39,750 --> 00:57:42,780 not be able to detect your water in your bag going through the X 1002 00:57:42,780 --> 00:57:47,310 ray. So SRA International is going to help protect the 1003 00:57:47,310 --> 00:57:51,210 information technology systems from to prevent cyber attacks at 1004 00:57:51,210 --> 00:57:57,900 the TSA $53 million. Wow, for a firewall essentially. 1005 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:03,660 Well, you know, the public wants to get raped, it's fine. 1006 00:58:04,410 --> 00:58:05,970 No one reports on this. 1007 00:58:07,590 --> 00:58:12,000 Well put it in our list of things to look into. Yeah, there 1008 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:14,220 wouldn't be any reports Why would anybody bothers to 1009 00:58:14,220 --> 00:58:20,160 complicate it? So hit the hit my guy clip just changed the pace 1010 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:24,600 here for just hit to hit some hit mouth or something. 1011 00:58:28,650 --> 00:58:33,360 Our formula is this. We go out. We get people in the mouth. 1012 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,620 Obama change you can believe in wedding tag. 1013 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,830 So I want to play that every so often. That's a good transit. I 1014 00:58:46,830 --> 00:58:48,990 think that's a good segue clip. Because it doesn't mean 1015 00:58:48,990 --> 00:58:50,910 anything. It's actually a promotion for the San Francisco 1016 00:58:50,910 --> 00:58:53,910 40 Niners. But I don't think they're gonna run it anymore, 1017 00:58:53,910 --> 00:58:59,430 because two flights got violence are in the bad. So I found this 1018 00:58:59,430 --> 00:59:03,600 to be a humorous clip. I got I'm watching Clinton, Bill Clinton, 1019 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:08,010 he's he's talking to a bunch of liberal bloggers at some big 1020 00:59:08,010 --> 00:59:11,220 meeting. And these bullet these people are just like, you look 1021 00:59:11,220 --> 00:59:11,550 at the 1022 00:59:11,580 --> 00:59:13,590 way these be like DailyKos. 1023 00:59:14,910 --> 00:59:18,030 Probably, but it was a huge gathering. It was a lot of 1024 00:59:18,030 --> 00:59:20,610 people that were just, let's just put it this way. They're 1025 00:59:20,610 --> 00:59:22,140 kind of goofy looking, and many are 1026 00:59:22,410 --> 00:59:25,050 shaping and we're talking about, we're talking about Hillary 1027 00:59:25,050 --> 00:59:25,860 Clinton, right. 1028 00:59:26,550 --> 00:59:29,130 And so Bill Clinton has to give no Bill Clinton is giving a 1029 00:59:29,130 --> 00:59:32,640 speech to these people. And he just said something out of the 1030 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:36,510 blue, that everybody eventually clap for him on this, but I'm 1031 00:59:36,510 --> 00:59:40,320 listening to it. I heard it a different way. And I can just 1032 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,660 hear it, listen to it and tell me if you thinking what I'm 1033 00:59:42,660 --> 00:59:43,110 thinking, 1034 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:48,060 including a trip to Africa now with the only female elected 1035 00:59:48,060 --> 00:59:51,600 president on the continent in Liberia, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, 1036 00:59:52,050 --> 00:59:56,730 but a couple of days ago, she was in Gulf Goma in the Congo, 1037 00:59:56,730 --> 01:00:00,690 the site of one of the most difficult refugee camps. in the 1038 01:00:00,690 --> 01:00:04,740 entire world, I don't know what you think. But I think American 1039 01:00:04,740 --> 01:00:08,220 secretaries of state ought to be in the places of human misery 1040 01:00:08,220 --> 01:00:08,910 around the world. 1041 01:00:12,750 --> 01:00:14,580 Are there is what he's saying? He's saying 1042 01:00:15,900 --> 01:00:17,820 what he said there? I'm not sure. I think it's 1043 01:00:17,820 --> 01:00:20,580 right. And Bill right on keep her there. Put her in that, in 1044 01:00:20,580 --> 01:00:24,810 that refugee camp. She's nothing but trouble. She dismay. She 1045 01:00:24,810 --> 01:00:29,220 dismayed big time. That's good. I like that. 1046 01:00:30,060 --> 01:00:38,340 So for my last presentation, I think so I'm listening to I've 1047 01:00:38,340 --> 01:00:41,880 decided that that Law and Order Special Victims Unit, which 1048 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,820 we've talked about on the show before, is nothing more than a 1049 01:00:44,820 --> 01:00:46,290 propaganda tool. 1050 01:00:46,350 --> 01:00:48,810 Of course, we've already connected the producer of that 1051 01:00:48,810 --> 01:00:52,140 show to be best as buddy of George Bush, who of course is, 1052 01:00:52,530 --> 01:00:56,220 you know, still in bed with you know, that's all it's all part 1053 01:00:56,220 --> 01:00:56,730 of the gang. 1054 01:00:57,660 --> 01:01:03,390 So this this episode was about teen pregnancy. And it was a 1055 01:01:03,390 --> 01:01:06,720 girl one girl some gang leader, you know, she decided that 1056 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:08,880 everyone should in her group should get pregnant.

A and also you can link to it from no 1237 01:11:49,110 --> 01:11:52,350 agenda.squarespace.com. You click on the shield and it'll 1238 01:11:52,350 --> 01:11:55,410 jump over to this site. We're going to keep everything there. 1239 01:11:55,410 --> 01:11:58,260 So I can fix it when it needs to be fixed. I have no idea where 1240 01:11:58,260 --> 01:12:00,240 those links went bad. Makes no sense. 1241 01:12:02,310 --> 01:12:06,630 I think it might have to do with a relative link or something. 1242 01:12:07,980 --> 01:12:11,820 And where the maybe, yeah, where the domain name change or 1243 01:12:11,820 --> 01:12:13,980 something like that. That's that's usually the kind of stuff 1244 01:12:13,980 --> 01:12:14,610 that happens. 1245 01:12:15,540 --> 01:12:18,150 I don't know, maybe I don't know. Just the whole thing 1246 01:12:18,150 --> 01:12:20,640 seemed I didn't make any changes. I didn't move any of 1247 01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:24,180 the artwork around or anything. It's just doesn't just died a 1248 01:12:24,180 --> 01:12:25,260 miserable death. Okay. 1249 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,820 I do have one more little kind of wacky theory if you're 1250 01:12:29,820 --> 01:12:38,160 interested. Yeah. Reading through the at least the the 1251 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:43,020 published health care bill, which is, you know, about the 1252 01:12:43,050 --> 01:12:48,840 length of Atlas Shrugged. Oh, yes, I got it in to over 1000 1253 01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:55,650 pages, there is a section in there. C 11, section 2521, 1254 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:59,700 National Medical Device registry. And I just like to 1255 01:12:59,700 --> 01:13:02,040 read this to you. And you tell me how you take it. And then 1256 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,310 I'll tell you what my thoughts on this. The Secretary that 1257 01:13:05,310 --> 01:13:08,820 meaning that the Secretary of Health and Human Services shall 1258 01:13:08,820 --> 01:13:13,020 establish a national medical device registry in this 1259 01:13:13,020 --> 01:13:16,890 subsection referred to as the registry, kind of like Windows 1260 01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:22,020 to facilitate analysis of post market safety and outcomes data 1261 01:13:22,140 --> 01:13:27,600 on each device that A is or has been used in or on a patient and 1262 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:32,760 B is a class three device or a class two device that is 1263 01:13:32,820 --> 01:13:33,870 implantable. 1264 01:13:38,970 --> 01:13:39,480 Okay, 1265 01:13:40,140 --> 01:13:43,440 so I'm thinking, This, of course, is not language that I 1266 01:13:43,440 --> 01:13:46,620 can understand. Because I'm not quite sure what it means to 1267 01:13:46,620 --> 01:13:50,220 facilitate analysis of post market safety and outcomes data. 1268 01:13:50,610 --> 01:13:54,960 And why does it say outcomes data, not outcome data? I think 1269 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,630 this is the mark of the beast getting set up, John. I think 1270 01:13:57,630 --> 01:14:00,300 this is the chip. They've got the chip baked right into the 1271 01:14:00,300 --> 01:14:01,020 healthcare. I'm 1272 01:14:01,350 --> 01:14:03,990 talking about a heart pacemakers what they're talking about. 1273 01:14:04,020 --> 01:14:04,440 Well, that's 1274 01:14:04,440 --> 01:14:05,670 a chin too, isn't it? 1275 01:14:06,659 --> 01:14:09,029 It's not a chip. It's a big clunky thing. 1276 01:14:09,060 --> 01:14:14,280 Yeah, but but but your pacemaker will definitely have to have a 1277 01:14:14,310 --> 01:14:16,170 have to be readable. 1278 01:14:16,470 --> 01:14:20,220 Yeah, I'm not going for this one. Okay. 1279 01:14:24,480 --> 01:14:28,320 I don't know. I was right on Gardasil. I should be a doctor. 1280 01:14:30,570 --> 01:14:31,800 Oh, God, can you imagine? 1281 01:14:33,150 --> 01:14:37,320 Yeah. If Timothy Geithner if Timmy Geithner can be Treasury 1282 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:40,470 Secretary then I should be able to be a doctor. should be no 1283 01:14:40,470 --> 01:14:41,040 problem. 1284 01:14:41,820 --> 01:14:44,430 Hey, it did play they hit me in the mouth clip one more time. I 1285 01:14:44,430 --> 01:14:45,090 just want to hear it. 1286 01:14:52,500 --> 01:14:57,000 Formula is this. We go out. We hit people in the mouth 1287 01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,439 All right, yeah, just a formula. Yeah, just a couple. That's our 1288 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:05,429 formula dish. 1289 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:11,040 The United States may refuse a visa to Hamid Karzai, his 1290 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:15,030 running mate. He, of course is the CIA plant who has been 1291 01:15:15,030 --> 01:15:18,930 running Afghanistan. This dude his running mate is so and I 1292 01:15:18,930 --> 01:15:21,240 think there may be a riff going on. I think Karzai actually 1293 01:15:21,240 --> 01:15:25,980 believes in the hat, you know, made of lamb foetus skin. And 1294 01:15:25,980 --> 01:15:28,740 then he actually thinks that it brings in power, because 1295 01:15:28,770 --> 01:15:31,740 everyone's like, all over this dude. Now, of course, the 1296 01:15:31,740 --> 01:15:35,100 elections, he walked out of a meeting with Holbrook, who was 1297 01:15:35,100 --> 01:15:42,420 the special envoy, whatever that means the envoy, because his 1298 01:15:42,420 --> 01:15:46,680 running mate is a known heroin, drug trafficker Cha Go figure. 1299 01:15:47,790 --> 01:15:51,000 So there's definitely something weird going on with the US and 1300 01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:53,460 they're in their plant. You'll remember that Karzai was 1301 01:15:53,460 --> 01:15:56,310 literally planted there, you know, Bush went over said, Hey, 1302 01:15:56,670 --> 01:15:59,370 here's your palace. You know, you just watch, I want you to 1303 01:15:59,370 --> 01:16:02,310 take care of everything here. So there's something brewing. 1304 01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:08,430 Something else that I think we if not specifically discussed, 1305 01:16:08,430 --> 01:16:13,890 alluded to the weirdness of the cargo on that freighter that was 1306 01:16:14,610 --> 01:16:20,850 hijacked by pirates. Now from multiple sources are saying, 1307 01:16:20,850 --> 01:16:24,450 hey, you know, it seems like Israel Secret Service, ie the 1308 01:16:24,450 --> 01:16:28,020 Mossad was behind the hijacking of this Russian freighter 1309 01:16:28,020 --> 01:16:31,500 because it apparently had cruise missiles that were being shipped 1310 01:16:31,500 --> 01:16:36,900 to Iran yet da. But it was always supposed to be timber. So 1311 01:16:36,900 --> 01:16:39,300 put that in the in the shownotes really say 1312 01:16:39,300 --> 01:16:41,700 lay the wood to them, maybe they're talking about something 1313 01:16:41,700 --> 01:16:42,030 else. 1314 01:16:42,900 --> 01:16:50,520 And, and, of course, President Obama has provide some 1315 01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:56,100 transparency about the search of the US Border and Customs 1316 01:16:56,220 --> 01:17:02,460 patrol. They will still be able to search your laptop and any 1317 01:17:02,460 --> 01:17:04,830 other electronic devices to make sure you don't have any 1318 01:17:04,830 --> 01:17:06,960 terrorist data that you're trying to bring into the 1319 01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:12,840 country. Although it should now take no more than five days to 1320 01:17:13,020 --> 01:17:17,580 to scan your hard drive. And no more than 30 days for searches 1321 01:17:17,580 --> 01:17:22,980 by immigration and customs agents. So more of the same 1322 01:17:22,980 --> 01:17:23,610 stuff. 1323 01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:28,290 Yeah, no, I saw that thing where they can apparently grab your 1324 01:17:28,290 --> 01:17:30,150 laptop for no good reason. Yeah. Well, that 1325 01:17:30,150 --> 01:17:32,640 was well, I thought that was kind of go away that idiocy, but 1326 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:36,000 I guess it's just staying right in there. So more of the same. 1327 01:17:38,910 --> 01:17:44,850 Anything else? You know, the problem is well, no, no, right. 1328 01:17:44,850 --> 01:17:55,230 Right. Right. You're breaking up. Yeah. You're sure what? Wow. 1329 01:17:57,360 --> 01:18:02,040 I'm sorry. I think you need to check your machine because 1330 01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:03,630 there's something seriously wrong with it. 1331 01:18:04,410 --> 01:18:06,840 Yeah, the thing is, I've done two other things on this machine 1332 01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:10,200 recently. And it it came in loud and clear both ways. So I think 1333 01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:13,350 there's just a there's some mismatch or maybe it's this time 1334 01:18:13,350 --> 01:18:15,480 you know, when we do the show at eight in the morning, we net we 1335 01:18:15,480 --> 01:18:19,020 have less problems, but we as we go later in the day, these 1336 01:18:19,020 --> 01:18:20,130 things start to crop up. 1337 01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:27,090 Okay, then then let me ask you this. Finally. John, do you 1338 01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:28,770 sometimes eat tortillas? 1339 01:18:30,540 --> 01:18:31,290 Occasionally, 1340 01:18:31,440 --> 01:18:32,340 do you drink? 1341 01:18:32,730 --> 01:18:33,630 Who doesn't? 1342 01:18:33,660 --> 01:18:37,290 Do you drink too? Was it to cocktail or to Kate beer? Takata 1343 01:18:39,450 --> 01:18:42,390 I don't drink Tocai I think it is p 1344 01:18:42,540 --> 01:18:46,350 Okay. It tastes like P but you might I mean if someone served 1345 01:18:46,350 --> 01:18:46,770 it to you. 1346 01:18:46,770 --> 01:18:50,340 It smells like pee. It smells like pee. I don't know what PJ 1347 01:18:50,970 --> 01:18:54,270 Are you? Are you are you known to play Spanish music sometimes? 1348 01:18:56,850 --> 01:18:58,890 I have been known to play Spanish music. 1349 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:02,760 Well, John, then you qualify for the warning issued by the US 1350 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:07,050 Forest Service which is investigating and targeting 1351 01:19:07,410 --> 01:19:11,460 campers who eat tortillas drink Takata beer and play Spanish 1352 01:19:11,460 --> 01:19:14,490 music because you might be growing marijuana illegally by a 1353 01:19:14,490 --> 01:19:15,090 friend. 1354 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:21,720 And what's the reason for this? Well, 1355 01:19:21,750 --> 01:19:26,100 they issued the they issued a warning and said you've got to 1356 01:19:26,100 --> 01:19:29,760 be on the lookout for campers in Colorado in the National Forests 1357 01:19:30,090 --> 01:19:33,240 who are eating tortillas drinking to coffee beer and play 1358 01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:36,090 Spanish music because you're probably growing marijuana 1359 01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:40,230 illegally. And they're profiling people who actually do that to 1360 01:19:40,230 --> 01:19:42,270 participate in these three activities. 1361 01:19:45,870 --> 01:19:49,290 Send your son your tortillas again give us away 1362 01:19:51,810 --> 01:19:54,240 but the beer smells like pee. 1363 01:19:55,470 --> 01:19:59,280 It does smell like pee. You know when somebody said that was like 1364 01:19:59,280 --> 01:20:01,800 how do you do there used to be Have a story that the Mexicans 1365 01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:03,750 peed into kadhi because they went to the United States with 1366 01:20:03,750 --> 01:20:06,570 it. And I said, What a crock of crap. And then somebody at one 1367 01:20:06,570 --> 01:20:10,770 of the stores around here have a huge palette of Ducati fell over 1368 01:20:10,770 --> 01:20:13,590 and busted all over the place. So you'd smell it smelled and 1369 01:20:13,590 --> 01:20:16,080 let's see where that came from smells like pee. 1370 01:20:18,750 --> 01:20:24,060 Coming to you from a rather noisy 17th century canal house 1371 01:20:24,060 --> 01:20:26,790 crackpot command centre where I believe the sushi is being 1372 01:20:26,790 --> 01:20:31,770 prepared.
