You guys have absolutely been cracking me up.
Adam Curry, John C.
DeVora.
It's Thursday, January 9th, 2025.
This is your award-winning give-on-Asian
-media assassination episode 1728.
This is no agenda.
Battling the blaze here and broadcasting live from
the heart of the Texas Silicon Valley.
Here in FEMA region number six.
In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
And from northern Silicon Valley, we're working on
changing the state motto to, quote, zero containment.
I'm John C.
DeVora.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
In the morning.
So whenever I don't get your full batch
of clips in the morning, it's very disturbing
to me.
Why?
Well, because then I don't know what I
should be clipping or not.
Well, it doesn't happen that often and I
send them right to you when you didn't
get them.
Oh, two hours ago, I sent you an
email.
Oh.
Yeah.
Well, I just opened my email.
Well, as soon as I opened my email,
I saw the thing.
I said, wow, let me send those.
Let me send those off.
No, the reason why is because I mean,
I figured you'd have fire clips.
And you could call me.
You know, Dana Brunetti, super producer to the
stars, sent me a screenshot of him calling
you.
And it said, user busy.
You do not even have call waiting, do
you?
Oh, God, no.
We thought that was very old school of
you.
When's the last time you called somebody and
you got a busy?
I don't even know what a busy tone
sounds like anymore.
So yeah, I could have called.
What am I supposed to do?
Just be here so everyone can just call
over and over.
But everyone should disable.
This should be a tip of the day.
Get rid of call waiting.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
I got this other call.
Hold on.
You stay there while the other person interrupts
our phone call.
I'll go talk to them.
You just hang on.
Hang on.
Hang on.
Bigger name on the other line.
What can I tell you?
Stand back.
Well, since you have since you, of course,
have the rundown, you being in California, far
away from the the the licking flames of
danger, I will just give us two short
clips, a little vibe for what the media
has been like here in these United States.
Listen to the music.
The demure.
And good evening.
As you can see, we are covering one
of the most destructive fires in California history.
I'm Nora O'Donnell with Tony DiCoppo, who is
on the ground in Los Angeles on the
ground with our team of reporters.
And we thank you for joining us as
we dedicate tonight's entire broadcast to those historic
and devastating fires in Southern California.
The entire broadcast is dedicated to it.
And good morning, America.
Oh, no.
Dramatic music right now on.
Good morning, America.
First look fire emergency.
Multiple fires raging out of control in Southern
California overnight, by the worst windstorm the region
has seen in over a decade.
All right, then.
Yeah, let's get out of here.
Homes burning, thousands fleeing, forced to leave their
cars behind and run.
Winds up to 100 miles per hour.
Witnesses calling it simply terrifying.
This is Sunset Boulevard.
You can see the fire just engulfing the
hillside.
Motors have to get out and run to
safety.
New reports of injuries coming in.
Our reporters across the region right now on
a special edition of Good Morning America.
First look.
Well, there you go.
I'm tired just listening to him.
Wow.
Yeah.
You just by accident said demure.
And I was thinking David Muir.
D.
Muir.
D.
Muir.
There you go.
Wow.
Do you know that Joe Rogan discussed this
very issue happening?
With Trump.
No, it wasn't with Trump.
He did with Trump, too.
Oh, he did this thing that he had.
What's the Pulp Fiction director?
What's his what's his name again?
Tarantino.
Yeah, Tarantino.
Yeah, it's a short clip.
Yeah, when I was filming Fear Factor, I
talked to this guy.
I was a fire guy for the fire
department.
He said, it's just going to be a
matter of time.
There's going to be one day where a
fire hits L.A. and the wind is
the right way and we're not going to
be able to stop it.
It's just going to burn right through to
the ocean.
He goes, it's just a matter of time.
We all know it.
I was like, what the dude?
I go, the whole city goes the whole
city.
He goes, when those big fires get going,
there's not a damn thing.
Like what happened in Malibu a few years
back.
So is this incompetence?
Is it just Los Angeles?
It is time for me to read one
of my favorite passages from Up and Down
California, the journal of William H.
Brewer.
Oh, yes.
This, by the way, should be read every
year.
Yep.
Yep.
For the obvious reasons to be well before.
Wait, wait.
I want you to read.
Yeah.
OK, I'm waiting.
But before you read that.
I'm surprised this didn't happen more often.
But of course, NPR.
I do have the clip.
This is fire.
I've got so many fire.
I've got a lot of fire.
Fire by climate.
NPR.
The powerful Santa Ana winds continue to fuel
those fast moving wildfires.
NPR's Windsor Johnston reports wind gusts have reached
100 miles per hour.
The strongest hit the region in more than
a decade.
Professor Sylvia Dee focuses on climate science and
extreme weather at Rice University.
She says the geography of Los Angeles County,
combined with extremely dry conditions, are contributing to
the severity of these wildfires.
We're taking a leaf blower to a campfire
that already has decades of climate change, lighter
fluid all over it.
Wow.
Climate change, lighter fluid.
It's surrounding by mountains.
And then that warm ocean water to the
west is contributing to what we're seeing happen
over the last couple of days.
Dee says the intensity and frequency of wind
driven wildfires are clear indicators of a changing
climate.
Due to climate change.
Yes, of course.
And now I shall read from the Up
and Down California diary written between 1860 and
1864 in the journal of William H.
Brewer, who detailed his extensive travels across California,
documenting various natural phenomena.
Quote, I have witnessed torrential rains that turned
the Central Valley into a vast whitecaps lake.
Intolerable heat waves that made the fats of
our meats run away in spontaneous gravy.
Violent earthquakes and fires I could only describe
as great sheets of flame extending over acres.
1860.
So.
You know, even their commentary that this is
the worst windstorm for a decade.
That's 10 years ago.
Yeah.
They have these hundred mile an hour winds
all the time.
Yes.
The Santa Ana winds.
When I was a little kid, they used
to talk about the Santa Ana winds.
Oh yeah, here they come.
We've talked about the Santa Ana winds on
this show.
I can recall it at least five, six
times.
Sure.
Yeah.
So this is nothing new other than possibly
some brush management did not take place, but
it did give everybody an opportunity to try
out their new uniforms.
Did you see the new uniforms, the yellow
coat and the goggles?
You mean by the reporters?
Yes.
Yes.
That's their new uniform.
I get them to get my yellow coat
on and my goggles and my mask.
And of course, we don't want to make
light of the of the destruction.
No, it's a mess.
Because this is horrible.
I used to live in the Hollywood Hills,
not far from Runyon Canyon, which there's a
fire there as well.
And I can imagine it's quite frightening.
It's just, it's amazing that this has happened
to so many celebrities.
Who, by the way, are not- Pacific
Palisades is loaded with celebrities.
Oh yeah, but it's all the way to
Calabasas.
It's parts of Malibu.
And I haven't heard many celebrities say climate
change, honestly.
I haven't heard much of that.
But I will play one celebrity, Adam Carolla,
who fulfills the prophecy of Mo Facts, which
is blame it on the black women.
We keep putting these people in this position.
And what do you expect?
What are we looking for?
You people are all sitting around, all you
dickheads who live in the Palisades, who voted
for Karen Bass and never stopped patting yourself
on the back because we go, we have
the first African American female as a-
Right.
She's in Africa, collecting beads, and your fucking
house is burning down.
And you want to know what's going on.
Oh, man.
You don't know what's going on?
You elect incompetent people, you pat yourself in
the back, you look at his progress, and
then we get fucked.
So, again- It's not safe for work.
It could be a vice president.
Sorry.
It could be the mayor of Los Angeles.
It could be the deputy police inspector of
New Orleans.
It could be the fire chief of Los
Angeles.
These are pretty important jobs, pretty highfalutin jobs.
And I would not care if every single
one of them was manned by a black
lesbian.
I would not have any problem with that
whatsoever.
Just as long as none of that factored
in to them getting the job.
But if they got pushed up ahead of
other people because of that, and that seems
to be what's happening because you guys never
stopped celebrating that, then no, I do not
want that.
And I know you're doing it because you
celebrate it.
You always go, oh, she's the first.
What's that have to do with fire safety?
What the fuck does being a lesbian have
to do with fire safety?
I would argue they know less about fire
safety because their hair is so short.
Okay.
Sorry.
I should have warned about the family on
safety.
And of course, the NBC Los Angeles news
pieces start to surface and it's all very
unfortunate.
I'm super inspired.
She took time out of her already busy
schedule to tell us about her vision for
the department's future.
One that includes a three-year strategic plan
to increase diversity.
People ask me, well, what number are you
looking for?
So I'm not looking for a number.
It's never enough.
Out of 3,300 city firefighters, only 115
are women right now.
She's already looking at ways to change that.
She's quick to point out that doing so
has a greater purpose, attracting the best and
brightest for the job.
They feel included, they feel valued, and they
feel part of a cohesive team.
The chief also checks another box when it
comes to inclusivity and diversity at this department.
She's a proud member of the LGBTQ community.
That just kind of opens the door of
people that thought, wow, I didn't even know
that that was an opportunity for me.
Ah, there you go.
So that's the narrative.
Yeah, that clip's incorporated in a couple of
my clips too.
Well, that's the narrative.
That is the narrative.
It's all DEI.
I don't think that's true.
I think it's just poor management, as we've
seen in previous California fires, forest floor management.
There isn't any.
Yeah, that would be poor.
I'll preface this when I was with the
air pollution district in the 70s.
There were controlled burns constantly.
Constantly.
In the 70s?
Did it end in the 80s, the 90s?
Do you know when it ended?
I think it ended in the 80s when
people started complaining about it.
Hey, we don't like that fire.
We don't like that fire.
Why?
The Democrats, well, it's causing pollution.
You know, we used to have, besides having
controlled burns constantly, constantly, we also had a
group called Ducks Unlimited.
Ducks Unlimited?
Yeah.
This sounds like a...
I'm surprised you...
I've not heard of it.
Actually, even more shocked that you don't remember
this group.
Ducks Unlimited, and I think they still exist,
but in California, Ducks Unlimited were duck hunters
who were responsible for doing controlled burns of
tule fields and other areas where ducks like
to come in so they could hunt them
and shoot them dead.
And so Ducks Unlimited, they were allowed to
have controlled burns themselves, it'd be a Ducks
Unlimited burn.
And they would burn off a whole area
of fire prone vegetation and also making it
possible for the ducks to come in.
And I don't know what happened to Ducks
Unlimited, but that's over.
And I remember when I was in high
school and even in grammar school where they
used to talk about fire management in school
and go on and on about fire breaks
and how they were so important and they
would knock all these trees and they'd show
pictures where there'd be a giant big lane
that was empty of trees so you couldn't
get these giant fires.
Anyway, this has all been dropped.
I'm happy to report that Ducks Unlimited still
is around today and they have the coveted
domain ducks.org.
They got ducks.org.
They did.
Yeah, see how DU has conserved more than
18 million acres of habitat across America.
Yes, they did good work.
And they used to be around here, but
the whole thing fell apart.
Now, I have a series of different, I
got some clips to play.
Yes, since you are in California, we expected
no less.
I would say, I would like to, I
don't know if, I want to start with
the best clips, which is the Jesse Waters
rundown.
I mean, it's just because I saw him.
It was on The Five and he was
working on, you know, The Five, if anyone
watches Fox, they'll notice The Five is really
woodshedding.
They're just working on material for their own
shows later in the day.
Oh, it's like comedians who go into a
little club to test out the material.
Yes, exactly.
It's practicing.
And so Waters had a really good bit
on The Five.
I said, I should record this.
And then he did it on a show
and he added to it.
Now, I had to cut this way back.
I guess five short clips.
Well, of course, they dedicated their entire channel
to it.
The whole network like this.
By the way, no more news about exploding
cyber trucks.
No, or more dead people in New Orleans.
No, let's just move that away.
Yeah, definitely.
So Waters had, I had to cut this
back for two reasons.
One, I thought it was poorly produced.
And Waters has the best producers on Fox
because it's got the best time slot.
But they had clips that needed to be
sweet and they were terrible.
I had to pull them all out.
Oh, no.
And Waters has this tendency to do, even
though I thought Fox did a pretty decent
job of not being political and they're reporting
on the fires.
Yeah, they all did it.
Well, I thought that was pretty good.
But the guys who are meant to be
political, like Waters, was political.
But he also has this tendency to drop
in snide asides.
Yes, snide.
Snide-ism.
Snide-ism.
I pulled most of those out, too, because
I find them to be distracting.
Because the presentation is good.
What are you throwing this stuff in there
for?
I mean, it's just poor form.
So here we go.
What he does is he goes through a
rundown of all the stupid crap that California
has done under Democrat leadership, including the one
that really is just mind-boggling, which is
taking out the four good dams we had,
which used to be used for both conservation.
It was used for water resources.
They were used for power generation.
And Newsom took all four of them out
of the state.
He took them out and just blew them
up.
And it's just ludicrous.
But here we go.
Waters won.
Apocalyptic.
This is Los Angeles County.
Entire neighborhoods are burning.
Over 10,000 acres in Pacific Palisades alone.
And the smoke everyone's breathing is being described
as a toxic soup.
Five people already dead.
They were burned alive.
Hundreds of homes have been scorched.
This is the most destructive fire in LA
County history.
And it's still raging.
Zero percent of the fire has been contained.
Zero percent.
Winds are whipping up to 100 miles an
hour, breathing more and more life into the
inferno.
And over 1,400 firefighters are battling the
blaze on the front lines, and they haven't
slept.
One says, I'm living proof that you can
stay up for 96 hours.
But they're outmanned and out-equipped.
The chief says she doesn't have enough firefighters.
Just months ago, LA Mayor Karen Bass cut
funding from the fire department by around $20
billion.
And before that, the LA Fire Department sent
their extra equipment to Ukraine.
They probably could use some of that equipment
now.
And this is even worse.
The fire hydrants are dry.
Wait a minute.
20 billion?
Does he mean million or billion?
He said, he said million.
I thought he said...
I thought he said billion.
He said he kind of...
He wanted to say billion, but he said
million.
But 20 million for the fire department is
quite a bit.
And they sent stuff to Ukraine?
Is that true?
That's a little...
Yeah.
Yeah.
They had some excess gear, so they shipped
it to do some...
Training.
Virtue signaling.
They sent stuff to Ukraine.
Can you believe that?
Yes.
Unfortunately, yes.
I can believe anything these days.
Except for the UAPs.
Otherwise, I mean...
Okay, let's go on with even more disaster
reporting.
Why isn't there any water coming out of
the fire hydrants?
Los Angeles has had two years of record
rainfall.
It hasn't rained this much year to year
since the 1800s.
Well, guess what?
All the rain just washes into the ocean.
A decade ago, California voted to spend billions
on water storage and reservoirs.
Today, Governor Newsom hasn't finished building a single
one.
They've done nothing to store water in a
decade.
Trump was just in California this fall and
told Gavin he needed to get it together.
You have so much water, and all those
fields that are right now barren, the farmers
would have all the water they needed.
And you could revert water up into the
hills where you have all the dead forests,
where the forests are so brittle.
Because no places like California...
I go to Austria.
The head of Austria tells me, you know,
we have trees that are much more flammable
than what you have in California.
We never have forest fires because they maintain
their forests.
Is it true that it hasn't rained this
much since the 1800s, since the days of
William H.
Brewer?
The last two years in L.A. were
very rain...
Yes, there was...
Yeah, I don't know if it was from
the 1800s, but it was a big blast
of rain.
And it was 2014 where we passed in
California state bill number one to allocate billions
of dollars to build new reservoirs for Southern
California.
That's 10 years ago.
Nothing was built.
And in the case...
I don't know if he brings it up
too much, but they have reservoirs down there.
But this last year when they were getting
the runoff, they didn't refill them completely.
So we have no reservoir, new reservoirs, no
new reservoirs, and the ones they had weren't
completely filled.
And so the hydrants went dead.
You know, this is like some people have...
Now, let me ask you a question, since
you are a civil engineer and all kinds
of important things.
Yes, I only on podcasts.
Even if you had enough water, fire hydrants
seems like...
I mean, it just doesn't seem sufficient for
the type of devastation that we have.
I don't think you can do much with
a couple of fire hydrants that have constant
water, can you?
You can stop a couple of fires.
You might save a house.
I mean, you can do something.
It's better than just letting the thing burn
out.
The point is that some people have speculated
this is exactly what they wanted.
Yeah, I've been hearing this too.
Great reset of California, basically.
It gets rid of some of these properties
and start rebuilding.
The lots will be cheaper.
You let new people in to invest in
these things.
They're letting this burn out.
I have a boots on the ground from
a California firefighter, if you want to hear
it.
Sure.
I have been a professional firefighter in California
for 20 years.
Currently, I oversee a vegetation management program to
reduce fire risks to communities.
We have money, resources, and are ready to
work.
The environmental regulations, however, take years to navigate
and comply with and consume a large portion
of the funds available for this work.
California's entire fire problem is a direct result
of foolish policies.
It goes back to the USFS suppressing naturally
occurring fire for over 100 years, resulting in
excessive fuels in our wild lands.
Now the state of California is tying the
hands of local communities in repairing the damage
through nonsensical environmental regulations that prioritize red-legged
frogs or spotted owl habitat that hasn't seen
a spotted owl since the 80s over human
lives and property.
The government will blame everything and everyone except
for their own policies, which are the real
culprit.
The incentives are so screwed up that no
one is really interested in actually fixing the
issue because everyone is grifting off the system.
Fires are big money for both private contractors
and government employees as is environmental compliance consulting.
Sounds about right to me.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what you do.
Big money.
All right, onward with clip three.
Before Donald Trump left office, he signed an
order that would funnel more water from Northern
California into Southern California.
Newsom, instead of saying thank you, filed a
lawsuit to stop it saying it would kill
the smell.
If you don't know what a smell is,
neither did we.
It's a fish the size of your pinky.
California can't get enough water to fight fires
because of a stupid fish.
We're saving fish instead of people.
Saving smell, big business.
If anything happens to the smell, people lose
a lot of money.
We're paying people to feel like heroes for
protecting a fish no one eats.
But it gets worse.
Gavin's been tearing down dams.
Why?
Because the Indians wanted some of their river
back so they could catch salmon.
Gavin didn't just knock down one dam for
the Indians.
He knocked down all four.
And these dams were a go-to source
for firefighters to pull water from to fight
fires up north.
Gavin's literally tearing down Western civilization for fish
and Indians.
Nothing against the Indians.
I love the Indians.
But really?
LA is out of water.
And the governor's staring at the fire with
his hands in his pockets.
People are trapped.
Homes and schools are gone.
And Newsom hasn't contained a single acre.
The governor waited 24 hours to send in
the National Guard.
Water management, forest management.
Gavin doesn't know what he's doing.
Again, Trump warned him about this years ago.
Newsom, after the election, called an emergency special
session in California to Trump-proof the state.
Not fire-proof it, Trump-proof it.
Whatever that means.
Oh, Jesse.
Oh, Jesse.
Yes.
Well, he keeps going.
Let's go to clip four.
Where are the emergency escape roads that were
supposed to have been built?
People had to abandon their cars in the
middle of the road and run away from
the flames.
Because there's only one way in and one
way out.
Why weren't the forest beds treated?
Why are we running out of water?
Joe Biden hasn't helped at all.
In October, the Biden administration canceled crucial controlled
burns in California.
These are critical to forest management.
Cancel them.
Today, Biden happened to be in town because
he was supposed to designate another national forest.
Decided that this was the right time to
congratulate himself.
So Hunter's now a grandfather and Joe's a
great-grandfather.
I'm sure everybody who lost their homes is
excited to hear the news.
Trump reacted to the fires today saying, no
water in the fire hydrants, no money in
FEMA.
This is what Joe Biden is leaving me.
Thanks, Joe.
Meanwhile, the mayor of LA has been out
of the country the whole time.
Mayor Karen Bass has been in Africa for
the inauguration of the president of Ghana.
What the heck's an American politician doing attending
inaugurations in other countries?
Karen Bass isn't going to her own president's
inauguration, but she's going to the president of
Ghana's?
Why?
And didn't make it back home until late
this afternoon.
A reporter caught up with her at LAX.
Listen.
This is an apology for being absent while
their homes were burning.
Do you regret cutting the fire department budget
by millions of dollars, Madam Mayor?
Have you nothing to say today?
Have you absolutely nothing to say to the
citizens today?
Nothing.
Biden was considering Bass for VP.
Oh, boy, oh, boy.
Yeah, it's very political at this point already.
Yeah, well, you might as well be.
This is a rare opportunity to really do
it.
Let's wrap with this last clip.
So who else is running things?
This right here.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the leadership of
the L.A. Fire Department.
I sure hope they know what they're doing.
Here's the fire chief.
She took time out of her already busy
schedule to tell us about her vision for
the department's future, one that includes a three
year strategic plan to increase diversity.
People ask me, well, what what number are
you looking for?
So I'm not looking for a number.
It's never enough.
Out of 3300 city firefighters, only 115 are
women right now.
She's already looking at ways to change that.
The chief also checks another box when it
comes to inclusivity and diversity at this department.
She's a proud member of the LGBTQ community.
That just kind of opens the door of
people that thought, I didn't even know that
that was an opportunity for me.
So while her department was sending equipment to
Ukraine, the chief was marching in pride parades,
which is fine.
Have all the pride you want.
But you better make sure you're ready to
do your job when it counts.
L.A. County Fire Department fired a ton
of men who refused to get vaccinated.
There it is.
They could have used those men today.
There it is.
Well, KCRA in Sacramento decided to do a
fact check.
Fact check false.
Fact check on Trump's political statements.
Trump, Trump, Trump.
Fact check.
Fact check.
So here's a look at the next claim.
Quote, he wanted to protect and he's referencing
Newsom.
He wanted to protect an essentially worthless fish
called a smelt by giving it less water.
And then in parentheses, he wrote, it didn't
work.
Now, this is mostly true, but it's not
clear what exactly the incoming president is talking
about.
Newsom is a supporter of the controversial Delta
Conveyance Project, which is meant to protect smelt
populations in the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta.
Separately from that, it's not clear if Trump
is referring to the plan that his own
administration proposed toward the end of his first
term, which would have exported more water from
the Delta to farmers and cities.
According to CalMatters, California officials and environmentalists opposed
Trump's plan, saying it would have increased the
chances that salmon, smelt and steelhead would have
gone extinct.
OK, so that wasn't a very good fact
check.
I see I played them out of order.
Here's how it opened with a fact check.
The fires have also turned political.
President-elect Donald Trump sounding off on the
wildfires in Southern California.
Yeah, as our state's dealing with those who
made a series of social media posts to
criticize California and the governor.
KCRA 3's Capitol correspondent, Ashley Zavala, come through
his claims and she gets the facts.
All right, facts.
As those wildfires raged, President-elect Donald Trump
took to Truth Social on Wednesday to basically
blame Governor Gavin Newsom for what's unfolding in
the Los Angeles area.
So let's take a look at Trump's claims.
Here's the first one.
Quote, Governor Gavin Newsom refused to sign the
water restoration declaration put before him that would
have allowed millions of gallons of water from
excess rain and snow melt from the north
to flow daily into many parts of California,
including the areas that are currently burning in
a virtually apocalyptic way.
Now, this claim is false.
State officials, along with Republican sources in California's
legislature, told us today there was never a
water restoration declaration for Newsom to sign.
Since Newsom has been in office, there has
not been legislation that would do what Trump
is describing.
Maybe they're being technical about it, but I
think that's exactly what you just said there
was 10 years ago.
I think, well, that was, no, the thing
that happened 10 years ago was it was
a bill that passed 10 years ago to
build more reservoirs.
But that wasn't the Trump thing.
Trump had a notion to send some of
the water that was being flushed out to
the San Francisco Bay and into the ocean
to Southern California.
And it wasn't something that Newsom could sign.
So this is misleading, because it said that
waters himself had it pretty well defined.
It was that Newsom sued against it.
That's not the same as signing something.
There you go, of course.
Well, it's a fact check false.
And here's the final one.
And Trump's next claim, quote, on top of
it all, no water for fire hydrants, not
firefighting planes.
So this is somewhat true.
Several LA news outlets reported that because of
the extreme demand, because of those wildfires.
This fact check is going nowhere, lady.
Fire hydrants ran dry in some areas and
water storage tanks did go dry in the
Palisades area.
Local leaders expressed serious concerns about this.
But in terms of actual water supply, Southern
California has plenty.
CalMatters reported water suppliers have said because of
back-to-back years of plenty of precipitation,
their reservoirs and groundwater basins are brimming.
So on the firefighting planes claim, that is
false.
California has the largest civil aerial firefighting fleet
in the world.
The aircrafts were grounded Tuesday night because of
extreme wind.
Now, since these claims, Trump has posted on
Truth Social a few more times.
He said in terms of dollar amount, the
damage in LA could end up being the
most expensive in the history of our country
and doubts that insurance companies will have enough
money to pay for the catastrophe.
We can't quite fact check that yet because
all of that is to be seen.
Oh, I could be wrong.
It could be a fact check we can
do.
What kind of reporting is this?
So on the insurance thing, there's a lot
of different reporting about insurance companies that pulled
out weeks or months before this fire and
said, we're no longer insuring you.
I don't.
State Farm being the biggest.
The Reed lady had Adam Schiff on.
He had a little twist on it.
These fires obviously are impacting everyone, whether you're
a Democrat or Republican, independent, doesn't matter.
All of us are in this together.
But I would hope that the incoming president
realizes that this affects his supporters as well
as anyone else.
We're all equally devastated by this.
And the federal government is going to need
help.
And I'll add one other part of the
devastation, which we don't know yet.
But in talking to the mayor of Pasadena,
he was saying that some of the residents,
maybe a lot of the residents in the
Eaton fire area were having trouble insuring their
homes.
Some couldn't get their homes insured.
Others, the insurance premiums went up so high.
They decided not to continue to to carry
the insurance because they couldn't afford it.
Sounds sketchy.
You can't have a mortgage without insurance.
The mortgage company will not allow that.
Right.
The banks, they will get your insurance and
charge you.
Yeah.
So maybe you'll see people going after state
farm executives now instead of just pharma executives.
People are not recommending anything.
Well, the way the way it was brought
to Steve Hilton had I didn't have any
more.
I could have got more rants if I
recorded stuff this morning.
But the one was it was about the
problem with the insurance companies have is that
the state capped what you can charge.
And they said, oh, we don't like that.
And then they said they said also because
of regulations in California, which is an overregulated
state, someone was designed to run businesses out
of the state because of regulations.
The cost of rebuilding is so high in
California compared to any place else in the
country that it makes it impossible to insure
people because to rebuild a two million dollar
house might cost three million.
I mean, they just got fed up with
it.
It's not like, you know, well, we're leaving
because there might be a fire.
I think the insurance companies are being wrongly
accused here.
No, where's the fun in that?
Well, I'm just trying to be a little
objective.
No, we we have to blame it on
insurance companies, black people, lesbians and Gavin Newscombe.
That's well, there's also a couple other elements
at play that have that are starting to
crop up, which is how did these fires
get started?
A lot of people think it may be
homeless encampments.
Homeless encampments, because when the winds start blowing,
they get cold and they light fires to
warm up burn barrels.
That's one possibility, which is interesting.
And then there's a report that that it
wasn't the wind so much that kept the
tankers from dumping crap on the fires as
a fact that there was a no fly
zone because Biden flew in right during the
fires and they put up a no fly.
Yeah, they put up a no time for
quite a long time.
But I'm not sure that that excludes firefighting
planes.
I'm not convinced.
You have to look into it.
I did.
But there was a report.
I have not confirmed this, but there was
a report on one of the radio stations.
Mimi told me about it.
And she was all pissed off.
And she says, yeah, I was listening to
the radio.
And they were saying, I said, no, I
said the same thing you just said doesn't
sound right to me.
And I have not been able to prove
it.
Well, I saw the no time and and
notice to airmen.
I mean, there's there's always going to be
exclusions to that.
And the no fly zone was for VIP
movement.
And but still, I'm pretty sure that there's
precedence.
You can if you if you're military.
Yeah, you're pretty sure we have to go.
Yeah.
I mean, that's I'm pretty sure that's not
a problem.
Look into it.
Yeah.
Well, there it is.
Do we want to dedicate the entire broadcast
to this, John?
Or can we move on?
Do I have any other good clips?
Because, you know, that's what everyone else is
doing.
Yeah, that's what you do.
It's an old rule of.
Broadcasting broadcast news.
Yeah, it's what everyone's talking about.
Why aren't you talking about it?
I do have two BS clips.
I got them noted as BS.
So that's got to be interesting.
That's always.
This is fire BS, the museum.
Museum.
What is gone now?
Or what is still in danger at the
moment?
Well, as well, this is a two minute,
45 second clip.
Is that the intent?
I think it might be the other clip
included.
You're going to have to interrupt.
That's all right.
You well know, Elsa, Los Angeles is huge.
And most places listeners might be familiar with,
with Hollywood Walk of Fame, for example.
Those are quite far from the fires.
But there's a beloved place, Will Rogers State
Historic Park.
It has the Actors Ranch House, a lot
of Western memorabilia.
It's on the U.S. National Register of
Historic Places.
That's right in the Palisades fire zone.
And the fire has burned the ranch house
basically to the ground and has impacted the
surrounding property.
And officials are out there assessing the full
extent of the damage.
I mean, when I heard that news, I
was devastated because I always peeked through the
windows when I hike around that area, imagining
what it would have been like to live
there.
That's right.
It's just awful news.
The fire also destroyed parts of Topanga State
Park, including the historic Topanga Ranch Motel, which
was once owned by William Randolph Hearst.
And meanwhile, the Getty Villa has had a
close call.
It's an estate with important Greek and Roman
sculpture and other artifacts.
It's also located in the Palisades fire zone.
And trees and brush were burning there yesterday.
Are all the staff members safe at the
moment?
And what about the buildings and the art
there?
So far, staff buildings and collections at the
Villa are safe.
I spoke with Michael Rogers.
He's the Getty's director of facilities.
We have a strong culture of safety within
the institution.
We think about emergencies and preparedness constantly.
What has the Getty been doing specifically to
keep fires at bay?
Rogers says as soon as they saw the
warnings, they made sure they were properly staffed
and the emergency services had clear places to
do their work on site.
And throughout the year, they've been preparing and
planning for these kinds of emergencies, for example,
cutting back vegetation, doing fuel reduction around the
site and its borders.
So should a fire come on like it
did, it doesn't have as much energy in
it to effectively damage your buildings and your
surroundings.
Where is this from?
What?
The report?
Yeah, where is it from?
Well, I don't know.
Let me think.
Is it NPR?
Is it NPR?
What do you think?
So let me ask you.
So we know the narrative.
The narrative has been set.
The narrative is firmly planted in everybody's mind.
It's government.
It's grift.
It's insurance companies.
It's incompetence.
It's California.
Will the counter narrative be climate change?
I mean, well, I'm wondering how they're going
to see it.
We had that one clip that doesn't mention
climate change, although you always like to bring
up that 1880 material, which is like really
rebutts, rebutts, rebutts.
We've been doing that.
Rebutts it, I think, as well as anything.
We've been doing that for over a decade.
California is notorious for these things.
That's why since that period, that's why they
went through so much trouble over the years
when I was a kid doing the control
burns and doing the fire breaks and just
having forestry.
You know, there's a whole college of forestry
at the University of California.
It's all they do is work on the
whole, build dams, do water control.
Everything was done for the purpose of not
letting this happen.
And, but it's like one of those things
I always like to, it's always like the
rules that people put in place, like you'll
have a stock market collapse.
And so they'll put all these rules.
They'll say, okay, we can't do this anymore.
We can't do that anymore.
We can't.
So let's put these rules in place.
And then 20 of 30 years go by
and people look around saying, why do we
have these stupid rules?
Nothing's going on.
Let's take the rules out.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, that's like the banking rules where
you can't have investment banks with the, that
are also just commercial banks.
You can't, you can't do all this kind
of thing, which was all part of the
29 crash.
The Chinese wall.
And so you created all these rules that
stop it from happening.
And then after a period of time, since
never happens, why do we have these rules?
This never happens.
Glass-Steagall, right?
Glass-Steagall where investment.
Glass-Steagall is a good example, but this
is just on and on.
And so California, just idiot.
Why do we have these dams?
I don't know.
This is keeping the salmon from being fished
by the Indians.
Let's take the dams out.
It's unbelievable.
But this is just a cycle of stupidity.
Well, what I thought was rather, rather humorous,
you know, Trump is out trolling every single
country in the world.
It seems he's trolling everybody.
And a, the leader of the green party
in Canada had a rebuttal.
And I'm, I'm kind of thinking, yeah, go
for it.
Hey Donald, have we got a deal for
you?
You think we want to be the 51st
state?
Nah, but maybe California would like to be
the 11th province.
Yes.
How about it?
California, Oregon.
Yes.
Washington.
Yes.
You're, you've got geography in common, but not
only that, we've already got a carbon trading
system between California and Quebec.
We've got some strong alliances on our West
coast from British Columbia.
There's been a lot of academic papers on
the idea of Cascadia.
So California, Governor Newsom and Washington state Jay
Inslee and newly elected governor of Oregon, Tina
Kotick.
How about it?
Yeah.
I think this is a great idea.
I, I am all for it.
We should give California, Oregon and Washington state
all to Canada.
Make them the 11th, 12th and 13th provinces.
This is now.
No, no, they're all three would be one
problem.
Just one big problem.
Yeah.
One big province.
I think this is a great idea.
You know, you could, you could start saying
a boot.
I can say a boot.
I can talk like a Canadian.
It doesn't take a lot of talent.
And I'd be glad to do it.
And wow.
I never thought this would happen.
John Fetterman agrees with you.
John Fetterman is all in with you.
Yeah.
When it comes to Greenland, there's a lot
of talk about Greenland, for example.
And I know a lot of, there's a
lot of freak outs, you know?
And of course I would never support taking
it by force, but I do think it's,
I, I do think it's a responsible conversation
if they were open to acquiring it and,
you know, whether just buying it outright.
I mean, if anyone think that's bonkers, it's
like, well, remember the Louisiana purchase?
I think Alaska was pretty, pretty a great
deal to $50 million.
I think it was, it was record.
It was, it was referred to as Seward's
Folly.
And now that was Alaska now.
So, I mean, you know, open to having
all kinds of conversations as well.
And now I don't think we, it's not
helpful to freak out.
But some things might work out.
Some may not.
But that's part of ongoing dialogue.
Ongoing dialogue.
Well, this would be the third attempt to
get Greenland.
This happened in 1867 with Johnson.
I actually have a good backgrounder, which surprisingly
came from Turkish radio and television, which is
kind of runs down the whole gamut of
what it is, why it's important, the history
of it.
It's good.
Many Americans might struggle to point out Greenland
on a map.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Easy does it, Turk.
But anyone interested in U.S. security will
likely have known for some time.
The world's largest islands may have the sort
of resources Washington needs to protect critical industries,
including technology and defense.
The island is an autonomous territory of Denmark
and home to just 56,000 people.
But it covers an area of 2.1
million square kilometers.
That's larger than the combined sizes of France,
Germany, Spain, the UK, Italy, and other smaller
European countries.
Its capital, Nuuk, is closer to New York
than it is to Copenhagen.
And this location makes it hugely valuable to
the U.S. Situated uniquely between North America
and Europe, it's long been thought of as
key to defending the U.S. from missile
attacks.
So much so, the U.S. has an
air defense base in the island's northwest called
Pacific Space Base, which has a missile warning
system.
It's also hugely significant for international trade.
The Northwest Passage shipping lane runs along its
coastline and is part of the Greenland-Iceland
-UK gap, a key strategic route.
Perhaps most significant, however, Greenland is thought to
contain deposits of rare earth minerals, as well
as oil and gas.
The minerals are in high demand as they're
used in things like electric cars, as well
as green energy tech, not to mention other
tech, including military.
Climate change and melting polar ice could make
these natural resources more accessible and cheaper to
get hold of.
As well as opening up more shipping routes.
Donald Trump isn't the first U.S. president
to put Greenland on his shopping list either.
President Andrew Johnson considered buying the island in
1867 when the American government purchased Alaska.
After the Second World War, Harry Truman tried
again, offering Denmark $100 million for it.
Greenland currently relies on a $500 million annual
grant from Denmark, which is a key reason
it has refrained from declaring independence.
It is, though, trying to boost business and
rely less on fishing.
Yeah, I think Greenland is making waves about
this.
Imagine there's 56,000 people.
Like, we could all make a bundle on
this.
Well, Don Jr.'s there.
No, he's already back.
Oh, he is.
Well, he supposedly went...
Well, I saw him when he went, and
I didn't see him personally, but he was
there, and it seems that the Greenlanders like
to see him, and you may be right.
I mean, Denmark's not too pleased about this,
but they can get some serious money.
I have a clip.
I have a clip.
Greenland is not for sale.
This is what said both the Danish prime
minister and Greenland's prime minister.
Clearly, Donald Trump's interest in the Arctic territory
has generated a lot of talks here in
Denmark and has made headlines, but the Danish
prime minister is calling for calm.
Mette Frederiksen has said that she does not
believe that Donald Trump's interest in Greenland would
actually result in any action, and she stressed
that Greenland belongs to the Greenlandic people and
that any conversation about Greenland should start and
end in Nuuk, not in Florida, not in
Washington, and not even in Copenhagen.
This is also what said a Greenlandic member
of the Danish parliament yesterday.
She said that it is not up to
the United States to decide what the future
of Greenland is, but this is up to
the people in Greenland.
On social media as well, people have largely
condemned what Donald Trump has said, but some
in Greenland have actually welcomed the U.S.
interest in the region, saying that this should
be a wake-up call for Denmark and
that this could actually speed up efforts towards
an independence from Denmark.
Oh, this is what we call the catbird
seat.
Hey.
I think this is going to happen.
I'm with you.
Why wouldn't it?
What's Denmark gonna do?
Well, they're not gonna, I mean...
They'll get some money.
They'll send an invoice.
They just said, they just said, I think
this is the key, it's up to the
Greenlanders.
Yeah.
Well, they're screwed.
I mean, if you're gonna have a choice,
you wanna be part of Denmark, you wanna
be part of the United States, and we're
gonna probably, you know, besides protecting you from
all kinds of stuff, we're gonna bribe you.
Yeah.
The way we love to do.
You're gonna have nothing but, you know, you're
gonna eat a lot better, rebuild, you're gonna
build bigger.
Who knows?
But whatever the case, it just sounds like
something that's just...
And I don't know what all these pundits
are gonna do about it, because they've all
been poo-pooing the idea and thinking Trump's
nuts.
They have a very short view of history.
I mean, it wasn't that long ago that
we purchased Alaska and Hawaii.
We never, we kind of, we never purchased
Hawaii.
No, we kind of...
Took it.
Took it.
We kind of said, it's ours.
It's like Puerto Rico.
We never purchased Puerto Rico.
Just said, this is ours.
It's like, you know, we're gonna use this
as a base here.
I mean, we come across as big bullies,
which is okay.
I mean, we need to shake up.
I think that a global shake-up is
good.
Put everybody on notice.
But at the same time, it's brought humor
back into politics.
I'm kind of digging it.
So, you know, here's, this is ABC.
Oh, Trump, he's got all these crazy ideas.
This morning, President-elect Trump doubling down on
his push to take over Greenland and the
Panama Canal, refusing to rule out using the
military to do it.
Can you assure the world that as you
try to get control of these areas, you
are not going to use military or economic
coercion?
No, no, I can't assure you on either
of those two.
But I can say this.
We need them for economic security.
Trump has suggested buying Greenland in the past,
but the prime minister of Denmark says it's
not for sale.
Donald Trump Jr. visited the territory yesterday, but
did not meet with government officials.
Critics say the president-elect should be focused
on more pressing issues like grocery prices.
As for the Panama Canal, Panama's foreign affairs
secretary saying the sovereignty of our canal is
non-negotiable.
Trump also floating the idea of renaming the
Gulf of Mexico.
The Gulf of America, what a beautiful name,
and it's appropriate.
Changing the Gulf of Mexico's name in American
documentation is technically possible, but there's no guarantee
other countries would go along with the rebrand.
The rebrand, it's a rebranding.
You know, the funny thing is about the
Gulf of America, it's not taking anything away
from Mexico or anyone else because it's not
the Gulf of the United States.
No, Gulf of America, which is- America,
which everyone's over the years, well, wait a
minute, we're in, we're Canadians, we're in America
because America's everything.
Excellent point.
They like to say, well, it's Central America,
Latin America.
North America, South America, it's America.
Gulf of America, it's much more appropriate.
But I like Scheinbaum, the Mexican president, because
she got into it and she had a
little attempt at humor herself.
After Donald Trump declared he'd rename the Gulf
of Mexico, President Claudia Scheinbaum showed off her
sense of humor.
The Gulf of Mexico is, of course, the
name that's recognized by the United Nations.
But why don't we call the United States
Mexican America?
It sounds nice, doesn't it?
A sarcastic response to the president-elect's comment,
which came along with other declarations, such as
his ambition to claim control of Greenland and
the Panama Canal.
So we're going to be changing the name
of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf
of America, which has a beautiful ring that
covers a lot of territory.
The Gulf of America, what a beautiful name.
And it's appropriate.
It's appropriate.
Trump and Scheinbaum have been trading jibes in
the weeks running up to the U.S.
president's return to office, notably on the matters
of tariffs and of migration.
Despite the taunts, left-wing Scheinbaum said she
believes a positive partnership is possible with Donald
Trump.
We must wait for him, Donald Trump, to
take office.
And in any case, there's international law.
I still think there will be good relations
with President Trump.
Why?
Because there will be good relations with our
former president, López Obrador.
Trump will be sworn into office on the
20th of January as the 47th president of,
perhaps, Mexican America.
All right, frog.
I like it.
It brings back humor into international politics.
This used to go on all the time.
They make little jokes.
It's good.
It's good.
It shakes things up.
It's good.
I think it's good.
I like it.
Meanwhile, Trump is also gearing up for China.
Oh, man.
Sir Mark Hall.
Remember, he was born in Panama.
Still has a place down there.
He is mad about this Panama talk.
He is.
It's an outrage.
Trump had poisoned eggnog.
Trump is no good.
Yeah, not liking it.
Not liking it at all.
So you prefer the Chinese to run the
Panama Canal?
Is that what he says?
Let me see.
I have...
Here.
I went back...
Well, let me see.
Trump not backing off his Panama rants.
Did you hear his news conference?
Where is he getting his info?
Bolton with the porn stash?
He's suffering from bad eggnog.
Went back and listened to yesterday's Trump press
conference.
His statements on Panama were all inaccurate.
The canal is the most expensive infrastructure in
the world?
China running the canal?
Where is he getting this crap?
He's trying to use the two ports on
either end of the canal to trigger the
protection clause of the neutrality agreement to legally
justify a military occupation of the canal, it
appears.
Possibly, and I hope, he's putting extreme pressure
on the president of Panama to unwind the
BRI agreements.
That's the Belt and Road Initiative.
That would be hard since China has invested
over $2.5 billion since 2017.
And U.S. foreign aid has been about
$300 million, much of it for migration assistance.
Oh, so it's all about the money.
Yep.
Well, yeah.
Well, we have a history with the region.
Yeah, in fact, Panama wasn't even a country.
Yeah, well, all right.
It's johnatdvorak.org.
He can email you.
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just
reporting that.
You're his buddy.
You can deal with him.
Yes, we're friends, of course.
Of course, he gets Ivermectin for me from
Panama, smuggles it in the country.
I don't want to ruin my supplier.
It's important.
Ivermectin is obtainable.
Yeah, very expensive.
We used to, we used to have a
connection in Thailand.
Now, Thailand doesn't take PayPal anymore.
We'll use, use one of the, use Stripe.
Nope.
You have to use Bank Wire.
Oh, well, that's overhead.
No, it's horrible.
But Trump is getting ready for, for China,
as predicted.
What have I been saying?
It's good.
What you've been saying is that they, it's
about the boats.
It's about the ships.
It's the big, beautiful ships.
Boats.
I want to talk to you about the
Navy.
The greatest president of the 20th century, Teddy
Roosevelt, FDR, and Reagan all built the Navy.
Do you intend to rebuild the Navy?
I do.
We have a great gentleman that, you know,
as you know, perhaps you'll get him on
your show.
He's fantastic.
John is fantastic.
Very, very successful business person.
Is that the Trump or a fake Trump?
No, that's Trump.
He just sounds a little, little, yeah, it's
Trump.
I think there's a couple of Trumps out
there, but go on.
Only the real Trump could speak like this.
Fantastic.
Very, very successful business person.
Very successful.
Top.
And he's in charge of it.
And we're going to do something with ships.
We need ships.
And we may have to go a different
route than you would normally go.
That's, you know, starting to build.
We haven't.
We don't build ships anymore.
We used to build a ship a day.
We don't build ships anymore.
We want to get that started.
And maybe we'll use allies also in terms
of building ships.
We might have to.
We need ships.
China's building, from what I'm hearing, every four
days, they're knocking out a ship.
And we're sitting back watching.
We've suffered tremendously during the Biden administration.
All he knew about was the Green New
Deal, building nonsense, giving money away, putting windmills
all over the place.
I gave out a great contract for essentially
destroyers.
Beautiful.
They were beautiful.
I even had something to do.
I'm a person that believes in the beauty
of a ship.
It doesn't cost any more to have the
right angles.
And it was really beautiful.
Yes, very beautiful.
Beautiful ships.
I also got boots on the ground.
Oh, I got something in my throat.
Hold on.
ITM.
I'm here at the federal FHWA.
What's that?
The Federal Highway Administration.
Transportation Research Board annual meeting in DC.
Sitting in at the Department of Defense asphalt
and concrete pavement meetings.
Each of these are four hours long.
Oh, yeah.
DoD isn't focused on building runways in Europe.
Major paving projects planned throughout the Pacific.
Your prediction seems to align with where we're
going to be laying asphalt and concrete runways
over the next several years.
Please don't use my real name.
Please refer to me as Commodore of the
Smooth Texas Highways.
So there it is.
The islands, the islands.
There's no agenda.
Commodore checking in.
That's right.
They check in, man.
And they tell us what's going on.
Yeah, that's good.
There's meetings everywhere.
It's good.
Good meeting.
Good meetings.
It's very good meetings.
I love it.
Boots on the ground from the Netherlands regarding
Trump's election influence.
I work in one of the main consultancy
firms in the Netherlands doing projects for all
the ministries here.
That would be the government ministries, not the
churches.
Working on everything from the Dutch DOD, CDC,
which is known as the RIVM, housing projects,
environment stuff, municipality, education, etc, etc.
Basically everything.
Then that's all the Netherlands is these days,
is consultancies, accounting firms and banks.
That's where all the Russians put their money.
Since the election, there's been a 180 degree
turn at our meetings.
Practically all ESG themes, which were fundamental up
until the moment in the organization, were completely
scrapped.
From an extreme focus on all woke themes,
from inclusion to climate change and everything in
between, we went totally the other direction, focusing
on security for immigration, economy and other real
issues.
It's a huge relief for me personally, but
also slightly disturbing that the election on the
other side of the Atlantic directly has such
a fundamental change.
We didn't vote, and still the whole world
seems to have been turned upside down.
The same change, by the way, can be
seen in daily conversations in and outside of
the workplace.
Even the extremely woke media here seems to
be changing, ever so slightly, back to some
form of sanity.
Well, how about that?
They're all changing their tune.
Well, we'll see how long that lasts.
Well, when it comes to changing your tune,
the biggest change of tune would be Mark
Zuckerberg with his meta announcement.
The fallout tonight after meta's mega move to
eliminate traditional fact-checking.
Mega move.
On the world's biggest social media platform.
We've reached a point where it's just too
many mistakes and too much censorship.
The fact-checkers have just been too politically
biased and have destroyed more trust than they've
created, especially in the US.
It's a significant shift from the fact-checking
put in place after Donald Trump's first win.
Instead, meta will now rely on community notes.
In other words, user input, similar to what
Elon Musk's X platform does as part of
a broader move to loosen up how meta
moderates content.
The company will also lift restrictions on hot
-button topics like gender identity and immigration, allow
more politics into people's feeds, and move its
trust and safety team from liberal California to
ruby red Texas.
Oh, ruby red to Boston.
The recent elections also feel like a cultural
tipping point towards once again prioritizing speech.
It's a political evolution for meta, four years
after Facebook suspended Mr. Trump's account in the
wake of January 6th, and just months after
the president-elect accused Zuckerberg of plotting against
him in 2020, calling for life in prison
if Zuckerberg did it again.
But after Mr. Trump's win, Zuckerberg traveled to
Mar-a-Lago.
His company donated a million dollars to the
Trump Inaugural Fund, and now close Trump ally
and UFC head Dana White is joining meta's
board.
Meta.
Facebook.
I think they've come a long way.
Do you think he's directly responding to the
threats that you have made to him in
the past?
Some critics concerned.
Fact-checking is not censorship.
What do you see as the Trump factor,
if you will, here?
This is very obviously a political decision.
Yeah.
It's great.
And he got a perm.
Well, the irony still is that whatever fact
-checkers they're going to have, they're moving to
Austin.
It's worse there than it is in California,
generally speaking.
Yeah, but that's not the fact.
Because they're all Californians that have moved there.
That's not the fact.
It's the trust and safety team.
It's not the same as fact-checkers.
I kind of enjoy the community notes.
I didn't know what to think of it
at first, but...
I liked it from the get-go.
Yeah, I see.
Because people will email me something.
Look at this.
Look at this.
This guy's got an egg with nuclear energy
in it.
The Enron egg.
The Enron egg.
You click on the link, and I don't
even have to look at the video, which
is four and a half minutes long, because
right there is a community note.
I'm like, oh, OK, that makes sense.
This report continues.
Over the next four years, the Trump administration
will set key policy on critical tech topics
like antitrust and AI.
And as meta has pushed into the world
of artificial intelligence, new tonight, NBC News has
found user-generated AI chatbots that seemingly violated
meta's policies against creating characters based on religious
or real-life figures.
An NBC News review found some two dozen
chatbots ranging from Hitler and Jesus Christ to
Taylor Swift and Captain Jack Sparrow.
Meta took down those individual accounts after our
team reached out and in a statement says
they are continuously improving their detection measures.
You narcs at NBC.
Narc Broadcast Corporation.
Where are you going to take down the
fun stuff?
Oh, oh, that's against your policy.
Oh, Jack Sparrow.
That's a fake.
Really?
The European Union.
No one will figure that one out.
The European Union.
Not so happy with Mr. Zuckerberg.
The EU absolutely refutes claims of censorship.
That's according to a spokesperson for the European
Commission.
Listen to this guy.
So he's going to say we do not
force these companies to censor anything.
But listen how he says it.
Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of social media giant
Meta, accused the bloc of passing laws which
institutionalize a suppression of free speech.
He made the comments during a video message
announcing the company would get rid of independent
fact checkers in the United States.
Meta said the decision was to make freedom
of expression a priority.
The EU says it does that.
We don't ask any platform to remove any
lawful content.
Lawful content?
Just need to make the difference between illegal
content and then content that is potentially harmful.
This is an in-between category.
Harmful for minors, harmful for our democracies.
We ask just platforms to take appropriate risk
mitigation measures.
Let me see.
The in-between categories.
Don't you think that there's probably some free
speech in there that people just want to
show their discontent, which you're calling danger to
democracies?
Meta has sent a risk assessment report to
the bloc on how the changes to its
fact checking system would work if they were
to be introduced in Europe.
Such research is required under EU law.
Working with such independent fact checkers can be
considered as an effective way to mitigate systemic
risks stemming from very large online platform services.
For example, risks relating to disinformation, risks relating
to electoral processes or civic discourse.
Oh man.
The tech giant plans to replace its fact
checkers with a community note system.
Users will moderate content themselves, but some experts
warn this will remove safeguards.
Meta, by doing this, are retreating from fact.
They're retreating from truth.
And by switching to a community notes model,
they're effectively trying to capture tidal waves in
a bucket and it's not going to work.
They are beside themselves.
They don't know what to make of it.
EU is so screwed up.
Oh yeah.
And Elon, or as they say in Europe,
Elon, for some reason, I mean the whole
world says Elon Musk, but in Europe you
got to say Elon.
I don't know why.
We'll say Londras.
Elon, Elon.
Now they're, now they're, because he's doing all
kinds of stuff that they don't like.
He's doing all kinds of stuff that's just
getting their goat.
Elon Musk has become meddler in chief.
You name it, and the richest man in
the world has commented on it.
From pumping millions of dollars into President-elect
Trump's campaign in the US election, he's now
focused his sights across the pond ahead of
a crucial year for EU countries.
The international ultra right that we've been opposing
in Spain for years, led in this case
by the richest man on the planet, openly
attacks our institutions, incites hatred, and openly supports
the heirs of Nazism in Germany in the
next elections to be held in the most
important country in the European economy.
Foreign intervention in a country's domestic politics is
rarely greeted with welcoming applause.
And when the interference comes from the person
in control of one of the most dominant
social media platforms, it can have consequences.
Amid Germany's election campaign season, it's bolstering the
far right.
His latest target is the United Kingdom, calling
on the king to dissolve parliament, and accusing
the prime minister, Keir Starmer, of being complicit
in the rape of Britain.
A cabinet minister was also in Musk's line
of fire, who has dismissed the billionaire's comments
for now.
Elon Musk is going to Elon Musk.
His live stream on X invitation to German
far right leader, Alice Weidel, is sparking fury
over unfair exposure ahead of Germany's election.
European leaders say he's gone too far, while
Brussels has been urged to use its digital
legal might to rein him in.
Pursuing action against a major tech tycoon would
be tricky enough.
But more to the point, like it or
not, in just a few days time, Musk
will become part of the United States administration.
Meaning a spat with Musk is tantamount to
a confrontation with Washington.
No, I have.
Yeah, well gone.
I was gonna say, still not a fan
of Elon Musk, but as a move on
Trump's part, brilliant.
I've come to the conclusion that Musk has
decided, and I think with the cooperation, or
with probably the encouragement of Trump, to become
his hatchet man.
Yeah, that's what he is, clearly.
And I think the best example is the
Keir Starmer thing, where he- Yes.
Because Starmer and his boys in the Labor
Party sent a bunch of people, volunteers, to
interfere with the American elections by sending volunteers
over here from Britain- From the Labor
Party.
To knock on doors, to tell people to
vote for Kamala.
And this is not good.
And so, okay, you wanna play that game?
We're gonna send our hatchet man, Elon Musk,
who can really stir up some stuff.
And he's done a fabulous job, I think,
of really putting the pressure on Starmer and
these guys.
In fact, I have two clips from England's
parliament.
Oh, good.
Good, good, good.
I have clips from this.
Maybe if I play my CBC clips, they
don't really have the parliament stuff.
If you have the parliament stuff, that's good.
My parliament stuff's just about the kind of
stuff going on, because I have some commentary.
So whatever you're playing is different.
But my point I was trying to make
there was that Musk looks like...
And I think it's kind of an interesting
thing to want to be a hatchet man.
You know, the enforcer, the guy who goes
out there and stirs up stuff on behalf
of the boss.
Well, just look at what he posts about
himself.
Look at the memes.
You know, Tony Stark.
I've got my Halloween costume.
I look like a badass.
This is exactly what a nerdy kid with
hair plugs would do.
Give him a big...
He's enjoying himself.
Yes, he is.
Give him a big keychain.
I got big keychain.
I'm in charge here.
That's...
He's a hall monitor.
Hall monitor.
There it is.
Elon Musk, the hall monitor.
He loves that.
Shall I play these Starmer clips?
He want to do Parliament first.
No, play Starmer first.
So we can get him out of the
way.
CBC.
Here Starmer wanted to focus on improving British
health care, but there was no way for
him to avoid addressing Elon Musk's latest broadside.
In a social media post, the world's richest
man and a key Donald Trump confidant questioned
whether it was time for America to liberate
Britons from their tyrannical government.
We've seen this playbook many times, whipping up
of intimidation and threats of violence, hoping that
the media will amplify it.
Starmer appeared to be referencing Musk's ongoing smears
against him and his cabinet minister, Jess Phillips.
Before he was PM, Starmer headed the UK's
public prosecution service, during which time several thousand
girls were victimized by mostly British Pakistani gangs
and sexually exploited.
Subsequent inquiries determined local authorities often failed to
properly investigate, partially out of fear of being
seen as racist.
After Phillips, the current minister for women's safety
rejected calls for a new inquiry.
Musk weighed in.
He called her a rape genocide apologist who
should be in jail alongside Starmer.
This is incredible.
Yeah, you know, some girls, like 200, 250
,000 young girls.
Oh, it's outrageous.
I mean, there's no, if Musk keeps this
up, this guy's done.
Starmer defended his own efforts at bringing a
record number of such cases to trial and
Phillips for being a dogged advocate for abused
women.
When the poison of the far right leads
to serious threats to Jess Phillips and others.
Right.
But in my book, a line has been
crossed.
In all my years of following British politics,
I can't remember an incident like this.
Political scientist Tim Bale says Musk appears to
have a hate on for Labour's left of
centre administration.
He's trying to disrupt the so-called special
relationship, if you like, between the UK or
at least this government of the UK and
the incoming Trump administration.
Today, without directly mentioning Musk's name, France's President
Emmanuel Macron urged democracies to be vigilant.
He accused Musk of backing a new international
reactionary movement.
For Starmer, criticising Musk comes with risks.
With Trump poised to take over and with
Musk as one of his most influential advisers,
the worry is offending him could turn the
incoming US president against Britain as well.
Notice they no longer use the term loyalist
with Musk.
No, no.
He's an ally, advisor.
No, he is definitely shaking things up.
Well, just to reiterate the fact that Starmer
involved himself in the United States election by
backing Kamala Harris and sending people over here
to knock on doors.
That's right.
That was, he's not going to, they're not
going to have a good relationship with the
UK until this is straightened out.
And the only guy that's going to force
the issue is Musk.
So talking about Starmer wanting to fix the
health service and NHS.
So I found a source for all, for
parliament online.
And people should look at and try to
get me some clips.
It's called parliamentlive.tv and they have both
the House of Commons and the House of
Lords, which I've never witnessed.
The House of Lords is, and the contrast
between watching the two, for one thing, the
House of Lords has red leather seating and
the House of Parliament has green.
And the House of Lords, I would say
75% of the members of the House
of Lords are masked up.
Really?
It's like, it's like you look at and
go, why are all these people masked up?
First I looked at it and I said,
oh, this must be an old tape or
something.
No.
Wow.
No.
And no, they're just masked up and they're
all worried.
I don't know.
It's the dumbest thing you've ever seen.
But parliament, no, they're not masked up at
all.
But I want to play a couple of
these clips.
This is the House of Lords.
This is just a very short clip talking
about NHS.
A woman is complaining about what Starmer's trying
to fix or what they're not going to
fix.
If you listen to this.
The pandemic added a huge strain to the
NHS.
Resources were redeployed away from elective care and
much elective care was postponed to reduce the
spread of COVID.
For example, before the pandemic, 54 women had
been waiting more than 12 months for a
gynecological appointment.
By the time the pandemic was over, that
number had gone from 54 to 40,000.
Whoa.
So you have to wait 12 months for
a gynecological exam?
Yeah.
40,000 people are on the waiting list
to wait 12 months.
What kind of operation are they running there?
I mean, we have people in no agenda
nation who will do that for you.
Yeah, I'm sure of that.
So we go to the House of Commons
and they just reopened after New Year's.
This is their first session.
And I just thought this was somewhat ironic
because they start off with the speaker going
on and on about this.
Welcome back.
Happy New Year.
And we're going to look forward for a
peaceful.
We're going to look for years of peace.
And what is the first thing that actually
happens?
Take a listen to this.
Order, order.
First of all, wish everybody a happy new
year and let's hope for a peaceful one.
Right, we start with questions.
Secretary of State for Defence, Aubrey Apple.
Happy New Year, Mr Speaker, and everybody here
today.
Question number one, please.
Secretary of State.
Mr Speaker, this day is day 1049 of
Russia's brutal, illegal, full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
And this year, 2025, will be the critical
year in the conflict.
My job as Defence Secretary is to put
Ukrainians in the strongest possible position on the
battlefield and at any negotiating table.
So throughout 2025, we will develop UK training.
We will strengthen Defence Industrial Corporation.
We will increase pressure with allies on Russia.
And we will step up and speed up
military aid to Ukraine.
It's all about peace.
So this peaceful year.
Now, I didn't get any more clips because
person everyone after that for the next 10
questions of this guy.
Are we sure that Ukraine will get more
of our money?
It was just went on and on.
It was like, what kind of peace are
we talking about here in the UK?
These people are insane.
Well, they're probably also all part of the
new to be built military industrial base.
The war mindset of NATO.
And that's what our buddy Mark Rutte said.
We have to, we must have a war
mindset about all this.
It's very good.
War mindset is good.
All right, let me shift gears for a
second here to ISIS in America, because we
should be very afraid.
I know we've forgotten about it.
The fire has distracted us, but we still
have potential for ISIS in America.
But we start first with the exploding cyber
truck outside of Trump Hotel.
We have a new twist.
Well, now to major developments in the investigation.
I'm sorry, a major development.
Into the Colorado Springs man linked to last
week's cyber truck explosion in Las Vegas.
Authorities say Matthew Livalsberger, an active duty US
Army Green Beret, used artificial intelligence to plan
the blast.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department reports that
Matthew Livalsberger used chat GPT to gather information
for his plot.
Officials did not indicate what results chat GPT
gave the suspect in response to his searches
about explosives and firearms.
Video shows Livalsberger pouring racing fuel in the
back of a cyber truck, where investigators said
there was more than 60 pounds of explosive
material.
Officials also finding a six page manifesto on
Livalsberger's cell phone, outlining numerous political and social
grievances.
And speaking about his intent to quote, make
this as public as possible.
So AI is good, good.
We bring in some AI for some, you
know, some discussions about how dangerous it is.
And not to be left out.
No, no, no, no.
More tech companies need to be involved in
these attacks who go to New Orleans.
Well, this as investigators have uncovered video taken
by the suspect using meta smart glasses.
Shamsudeen Jabbar recorded scenes while he rode a
bike around the French Quarter.
Surveillance video shows Jabbar with what investigators say
are two explosives inside of coolers.
They say he planned those in the area,
planted them right before the attack.
The explosives never detonated.
Meta glasses.
Beautiful.
Tech is great.
And then we have our guy was supposed
to be broken.
All the rest of the body glasses.
He had meta glasses.
Well, it's obvious his intent was not to
mow people down.
It was to detonate bombs.
And he had a transmitter.
He had a transmitter, but he didn't get
a chance to hit the transmitter for some
reason.
Or maybe he was and it was a
bogus transmitter given to him by an undercover
FBI agent, which seems to be the typical.
Well, that's what exactly what it was.
That's what usually happens with these things.
Um, someone sent me, um, the definition of
a targeting officer.
We're talking about Sarah Adams here for a
moment.
It's interesting that, you know, a lot of
people were kind of upset.
Oh, I wouldn't say super upset.
Some even said, I'm saying this with a
kind voice.
Please don't do my voice.
Um, you know, they, they all think that,
um, gosh, the programming is so deep.
Um, that all of these, uh, ex-military
podcasters.
Oh yeah.
That guy.
They're really, I mean, they're really just, you
know, they're upset because they fought all their,
you know, their careers fighting ISIS.
And now, you know, they're inside the country
and they're going to attack us, which is
supposedly is revenge for bin Laden.
I don't know why they waited for Trump.
Um, and yeah, Biden was an easier, softer
target.
Yeah.
So Biden is more closely connected to the
bin Laden, uh, murder and, you know, and
then Hello.
Yes.
Hello.
And they bring up, uh, you know, the
Chinese buying up farmlands, the Chinese men of
military.
This is all psychological operation.
I mean, it's just, it's just to get
everybody on edge and then to start to
form a narrative.
So here's the, you can actually, um, USA
jobs.gov has a job available as a
CIA targeting officer.
And, uh, let's just see what the details
are as a targeting officer at CIA.
You will identify the people relationships and organizations
having access to the information needed to address
the most critical us foreign intelligence requirements and
find opportunities to disrupt terrorist attacks, illegal arms
trade, dark drug networks, cyber threats, and counterintelligence
threats.
As a targeting officer at CIA, you will
identify the people, uh, and organizations having access
to the information needed to address these most
critical us foreign intelligence requirements.
Targeting officers are integral to the planning and
implementation implementation of directorate of operations, foreign
intelligence collection, counterintelligence, and covert action operations.
You'll combine specialized training, utilize advanced analytic skills
and tools and in-depth knowledge and experience
in the directorate of operations, operational trade craft
to identify new opportunities for DO activities and
enhance ongoing operations.
Well, it seems like someone who, where did
that ad come from?
USA jobs.gov. That is a screwy as
ad.
You wouldn't advertise like that.
Well, I think that Sarah Adams is doing
her job quite well, although she's billed as
a former targeting officer.
She's, she's done exactly what she needs to
do.
She's infiltrated these podcasts.
She's treated like royalty.
Oh no, she's legit because she wrote a
book on Benghazi.
Was she in Benghazi?
No.
Okay.
And it's already seeped through to Fox news.
This is, um, Emily who co-hosts, uh,
outnumbered on Fox.
Campagna, the ex-chairleader for the Oakland Raiders.
Yeah.
University of California, another university of California person.
Here we go.
And the broader picture too, as we all
head down the pike of 2025 is that
we need to steward intelligence appropriately.
Sarah Adams and her incredible intelligence group.
She was a former CIA targeter, has talked
at length about what to expect in 2025,
2025.
And there are two things to note.
Number one, that those terrorist groups who are
acting in concert with each other have great
plans for the United States and Europe and
parts of the Middle East.
And those come in the forms of surges
and waves and expecting in terms of large
group, uh, activities and sports events, embassies, train
stations and the like.
And also their advancements in technology, which include
invisible suicide vests and certain weapons that can
make, Oh, it's, it's gone from invisible.
It's gone from invisible bombs to invisible suicide
vests.
Now this is a step up from where
we were.
To include invisible suicide vests and certain weapons
that can make it through those, those metal
detectors and more.
All of this is coming down the pike,
but means nothing to the American people.
If our Southern border and Northern are so
porous that they can get these, these machines
and people through, and then we don't steer
these resources appropriately so they can run rampant
through the city.
Now I know this person has been identified
as a lone wolf, but the point is
that the risk is great.
And this kind of stuff is not a
one step myopic approach.
We need to have a longterm view and
a longterm collection of these, these assets and
this, this intelligence so that we do the
right things with it.
I have faith.
It'll start happening after January 20th.
This is, I mean, she's, I don't think
she's an analyst on this stuff, so she's
being told what to say, or maybe she's
reading off the prompter, but it became a
little more clear with this NPR interview with
a professor of Islamic history from Dartmouth university.
And he makes it very clear that we
gotta be very careful.
We have some confirmation hearings coming up.
I keep to my original thesis and just
to be clear, you're saying the FBI on
a weekly basis is breaking up attacks here
on us soil on a weekly basis.
No, no.
Six weekly basis.
That is correct.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I follow the FBI's arrest of ISIS operatives
on a daily basis and hardly a week
goes by where they are not just disrupting
their job is to deter, disrupt, and, and
in some ways, prevent new attacks.
And they are being so vigilant, you know,
but they can't make one mistake.
They can't miss one because they do.
We might have another bourbon street style massacre.
So, you know, they really have a lot
of fun.
What?
Wait, if they miss that, if they miss
even one, they're going to have another bourbon.
Wait a minute.
They missed that one.
Yeah.
I know this guy, he's clear what his
job is.
His job is to tell NPR that these
new people coming in Tulsi.
No good.
Yeah.
No good.
No good.
We don't want to cash Patel for sure.
I'm glad you mentioned it.
We might have another bourbon street style massacre.
So, you know, they really have a lot
of pressure on them.
And I fear that when Donald Trump comes
in and announces that he's the disruptor in
chief, he is going to disrupt the FBI
by putting someone like cash Patel.
I've heard nothing from the Trump administration or
from cash Patel, who Trump has nominated to
be the head of the FBI about using
the FBI to protect American lives.
Well, well, and we want to weaponize it
to go after political opponents.
Well, and we know that cash Patel, Trump's
FBI director nominee calls the FBI the deep
state because the agency investigated Trump.
So a political opponent in his eyes.
Oh, OK.
We know that way.
And NPR, we know it's just because we
know that we know that hates him.
But we mentioned that they mentioned the bogus
FISA warrants or the spying at the Trump
Tower.
No, no.
And wiretaps, illegal wiretaps.
They mentioned any of that stuff.
No, Trump is going to put us all
in peril with his serious strategy.
So, yes, that concern.
Are you also concerned about President Trump bringing
troops out of Syria?
Because we know in Syria, we've got the
pro-American Kurds running a third of the
country, the other part of the country is
running is being run by fighters who had
ties to ISIS.
The Kurds are holding ISIS fighters in these
open air prisons that are only fomenting.
Let them go.
More support for ISIS.
And Donald Trump is talking about withdrawing all
the 2000 U.S. troops.
Are you worried about the Kurds being overrun,
those ISIS fighters being unleashed?
I mean, what are your thoughts about Syria?
No, I spent time on the ground there
with those brave pro-women's rights, pro-Christian,
pro-American Democratic Kurds.
But then along comes Trump, and he gets
bored of the wars.
And he decides he's gonna just yank all
- He's bored.
He's bored of the wars because the rest
of America wants them.
Then along comes Trump, and he gets bored
of the wars.
And he decides he's gonna just yank all
of our troops out without any discussion with
the Pentagon, who's waging this counterinsurgency to stop
ISIS, which has not 100% been defeated,
as Trump falsely proclaims.
That is a very, very dangerous lie.
ISIS has not been defeated.
They have regrouped.
They are resilient.
They are waging a timeless war of attrition.
They call Nakia.
Nakia means outlasting the enemy, as we saw
the Taliban do in Afghanistan.
That's right, Nakia.
It's Nakia.
Nakia in America.
One of our producers put together a website,
which is borderline good taste.
I know it.
Isisflags.com.
Just take a look.
It's pretty funny.
Planning your next terrorist attack?
The pressure is on.
Every six weeks, a new story.
Every six weeks, a mention on the No
Agenda Show.
While you are scheming to create a scenario
that fits the narrative, why not buy your
ISIS flags right here and support the best
podcast in the universe?
Oh, geez.
Knock on the door.
It's very humorous.
What is the six-week cycle?
Yeah, what is value for value?
I mean, all of it is good.
Some work was put into it.
I appreciate it.
But this is what they're doing.
And I'm just sad because I think good
guys, I think Sean Ryan's a good guy.
They're just being psyoped into this.
It's like, this is not necessary.
But it is necessary.
Well, from their perspective, it's very necessary.
I agree.
I agree with you there.
I agree.
Let me see.
By the way, I was thinking, just back
to Musk for a second.
Depending on what happens with TikTok, wouldn't that
be perfect for Musk to take over TikTok?
I'm sure he'd love to.
Yeah.
Well, why wouldn't he make it happen?
By the way, and this is not meant
to usurp, but meant to encourage you.
I can't believe I'm saying that.
I have a single TikTok clip of a
Doolooloo girl.
Oh, is it one of my Doolooloo girls
you think is the one I have?
I don't know.
Oh, maybe it is.
Let me see.
I'll start it.
And if it's her, you'll tell me to
stop.
And then I'll let you do your clips.
Here we go.
That's her.
I got that one.
Okay, do it.
I can tell already.
You do it.
Do your Doolooloo girls.
Because this, I did some research into this.
This is very interesting.
Well, will they tell me more?
Well, no.
Let's do the clips first.
You got to have the clips.
That's the law girl.
Well, the one, I think this is the
one that you have, which is the law
girl.
Yes.
This is Doolooloo 4.
Yeah, exact same link.
And she cites some law, which has nothing
to do with anything.
I looked at this law.
Yeah, I did the same.
And it just says, you know, you can't
rig an election.
Well, I tried to get into it to
understand why she thinks that.
Well, let's play the clip and that'll make
it a little more clear.
That right there, it should be.
Do you ISO that?
Because that's the ISO of the year.
It's definitely ISO material.
Because honey, what I need is law.
And that is the law.
And maybe listen, when I read that, when
I read that, I hollered, oh, because I
knew it had to exist somewhere, but I
didn't know where to look.
I didn't know how to find it.
I just had to trust that it existed.
And this is the part that I really
trusted in.
You've got a woman who has fought for
her career to ascend to these levels that
she's gotten to for her entire career.
She's been about public service.
She served in three levels of public service
in the law.
She is a prosecutor.
Of course, she knows this stuff.
And you know what else?
The Obamas produced a movie about this.
They laid out the whole plan for us.
And at the end of that movie, I
already told you about it in a couple
of videos back.
At the end of the movie, the girl
is in the bunker eating snacks, watching friends,
listening.
That is what I needed.
That gave me air.
Baby, let the clown show begin.
It started.
It just started.
That was good news for my day.
My goodness.
She's going to be very disappointed.
So she refers to a what it was
a term she had like a legal rule
or something.
But she refers to 9-85.300, non
-interference in elections when conducting federal criminal investigations
and ballot fraud.
And so they say that the department has
a limited role in the process of investigating
ballot fraud and should generally avoid interfering or
appear to interfere with election administration, tabulation, validation,
or certification.
And therefore, the Department of Justice should not
engage in any overt criminal investigative measures in
matters involving alleged ballot fraud until the election
in question has been concluded, its results certified
and all recounts and election contests concluded.
So I think what she is saying is
that there was some massive ballot fraud, which
I think is true because somehow 15 million
Democrat ballots disappeared.
I think Trump took those or Elon might
have taken them up to Starlink.
And therefore, therefore, therefore, this will be declared
null and void.
And Kamala Harris will be seated on her
throne as the president of the United States.
I think that must be the interpretation.
And because I have a couple more clips
of dudes, dudes that say that kind of
because they've been black women mostly, but these
dudes are saying the same thing and what
they're and the argument is now the current
argument is, well, they have to.
The reason that Kamala went up and they
confirm the election, the results of the election,
they had to do that in advance of
them being able to put the charges together.
OK, because if you had if you don't
make the election official, then then you haven't
committed the crime yet.
Oh, oh, it has to.
The crime has to be committed.
So which one is this?
Duluth?
Well, I don't know.
I think both these guys kind of say
something the same.
I got two of them.
Let's start with dude number three.
Everyone doing today.
The election results were technically certified.
Harris swore them in.
Did he have a nose ring, John?
Did he have a.
They always have nose rings.
I do.
I have some discussion of those things from
a nose ring guy who's one of our
producers pissed off about my assertion that the
nose rings are a cry for help.
And people want to be led around by
the nose.
That's where the nose ring is very symbolic.
And he has some comments about that I
can talk about after these clips.
Whatever she does.
And I'm checking in on my blue Delulu
family.
So now at this point, the crime has
officially been committed.
And did anyone see that after the whole
Electoral College vote was counted, that those privileged
resolutions were entered on the books for tomorrow?
Something is happening, you guys.
And I know I always sound like a
conspiracy theorist.
I've said this for weeks and months, and
it feels like years, but it's all going
to happen.
It's happening.
It's coming to a head.
The executive orders that Biden has been passing
over the last four to five days, the
vote today, these resolutions, something is going on.
OMG, not to mention, did you guys see
JD Vance the whole time?
Angry and uncomfortable the entire time.
You ever seen someone who, one, be so
upset?
Meanwhile, Trump has been putting out truth social
posts after truth social posts today.
And not a single thing about any of
the government stuff that's going on today.
I'm just saying.
Okay.
Well, there's clear evidence that something is up.
Yes, because nothing's happening.
There's proof.
This is, it's still, I have to say,
when it comes to Democrat voters and Republican
voters, I thought the quantum dots was better.
This is, this is just, they're trying to
do lawfare where no lawfare exists.
It's a little disappointing.
Uh, quantum dots is pretty damn good.
It's good.
It's good.
I mean, you had Steve Pchenik on Alex
Jones show with Alex laughing in his face.
After the fact.
Yes.
But no, it was before.
Yeah.
Well, I thought Alex was always after the,
it was after the election.
Yeah.
But Alex was convinced.
Yeah.
The timing was, was awkward.
Yeah.
So let's go with this.
Here's another guy, another dude.
Trump coming out and calling for a rally
with his supporters, January 19th, one day before
the inauguration.
Why would you need to do that the
day before you are supposedly being inaugurated the
47th president?
He wants those people here in town for
when it becomes even more evident than it
already is that under 14th amendment, section three,
he cannot be sworn in.
He's done.
He knows it.
He's known it for a while.
Only thing is they're ready for you this
time, dude.
Dude, that was great.
This is it.
Well, do you want, do you have another
one or?
Yeah, this is just a deluded woman.
That's just rambling about God knows what, but
it's similar kind of thing.
And I might as well get rid of
it.
I am shook, shaken and stirred right now.
I had to get out of bed.
Did you see Kamala Harris's end of the
year slash new year post?
Why was it what there's there has to
be a reason it was that extra because
that was unnecessary.
I feel like this is it's coded.
It's coded.
I don't know what it means, but it
means something.
She's not going anywhere.
I think that's very clear from this video.
She ain't going nowhere.
Also, another reason why I think this video
is important is that Biden is not featured
at all.
Not even one frame.
I feel like that's strange.
I feel like that's a little strange.
He's dead.
Remember the things that she keeps repeating.
We are not going to throw up our
hands.
We're going to roll up our sleeves.
Time to get to work.
Oh, goodness.
So a lot of people emailed me about
narcissism.
These are clear examples of it.
And Marxism, the how Marxism and narcissism go
together.
And it was actually Sir Benrose who I
thought had a good take.
Which I will recite.
So this is, you know, I'm still forming
this this thesis, but people are in strong
agreement and everyone has different ways of looking
at it.
The Marxist religion teaches people to look outside
themselves for the source of their problems.
All strife is rooted in power dynamics.
Evil corporations, the wealthy, politicians, white people, cisgenders,
ableists with all of their arms and legs
working.
Your problems can always be traced to everyone
but you.
In order to avoid cognitive dissonance, this requires
an exceptional degree of othering to dehumanize other
people and disregard their feelings and needs.
This is not easy for people with a
conscience.
After all, it's much harder to dump all
your problems on someone after you look at
things from their point of view.
On the other hand, this othering comes naturally
to narcissists and sociopaths who, being incapable or
unwilling to consider someone else's thoughts and feelings,
will other people as a matter of reflex.
Hence why narcissists and sociopaths are a natural
fit for Marxism, as it reinforces their psychosis.
After all, what could be better for a
narcissist than being reaffirmed by a religion that
makes everything about you the victim mentality and
puts all of your problems on the other?
I think that's pretty close.
Yeah, it's got some points there.
I think probably a well-versed socialist can
break it down even better.
There's definitely something to it.
Here's Robert.
He did five bullet points.
I'm a narcissist.
I think I'm the best.
Some people are clearly doing better than me.
It's not my fault, though.
It's the system.
The system is capitalist.
I'm a Marxist now.
I thought that was kind of good.
That's actually pretty close to it, because there
is a lot of blaming capitalism for your
own personal problems.
Oh, it's because socialism wouldn't make it, you
know, again, it gives you free stuff.
Supposedly, it should.
And that's what you want.
You deserve it.
The one that I wanted to ask you
about, because you are much more a student
of Marshall McLuhan than I am.
Yes, I've read all his material.
I knew one of his relatives.
Yes, and I went through Cal using some
McLuhan ideas to get some high grades in
certain classes.
Let's try this out.
In chapter four of Understanding Media, McLuhan explains
how technology acts as extensions of ourselves, often
numbing us to its transformative effects.
Using the myth of Narcissus, he describes how
we have become captivated by technological reflections, unaware
of their impact.
McLuhan introduces auto-amputation, which I think is
a great word, as a survival mechanism, likening
technology to idols that shape us in their
image.
Social media amplifies this effect, creating a global
forum where our voices resonate endlessly.
Technology, like Thor's hammer, grants us divine power,
yet distracts us from its profound influence on
society and human behavior.
With the arrival of electric technology, McLuhan wrote,
man extended or set outside himself a live
model of the central nervous system itself.
To the degree that this is so, it
is a development that suggests a desperate and
suicidal auto- amputation, as if the central
nervous system could no longer depend on the
physical organs to be protective buffers against the
slings and arrows of an outrageous mechanism.
That's heady stuff.
A couple of things to note.
My version of that, of course, is the
phone in the drawer.
Yes, that's why you're so sane and not
a Marxist.
Certified not a Marxist.
Is that all of McLuhan's theses were all
done before the internet.
He was, I think, died before the internet.
Oh, yeah.
It's all pre-internet ideas.
And actually, in some regards, it's pre-personal
computers.
So he was very, so if you start
reading him now and think about the internet
and personal computers and the phone, of course,
the little 2000, the smartphone, smartphone, internet, personal
computers, put those aside and then read him
and think about those three items and you
go, holy, this is nailing it.
In other words, good job.
Auto amputation is a kind of survival mechanism
by which the body tries to cope with
a technical technological change currently transforming the environment.
But the form this attempt at survival takes
is the construction of idols.
There's many of them.
In fact, any use of technology is likened
by McLuhan to the beholding of idols.
I think that's so true.
Yeah, I see people worshiping the phone all
day.
Yeah, that goes back to my rosary.
The phone has rosary beads.
This is not good.
I think we've determined that some years back.
But there's also no way, I don't see
any way out of it other than self
-awareness.
And some people have to get voted off
the island.
Put the phone in the drawer.
That's one way out.
It helps.
Well, I have to say my Cat S22
has done very well for me.
It is so unattractive to use.
It is such a pain in the butt.
And I only use it for texting because
everything else just sucks.
It's slow.
You can't even make a phone call on
it?
You know, I think I've received maybe two
calls on this since I've had it.
Nobody calls anybody anymore.
You know why?
Because you're constantly busy.
You get a busy tone when they call
you.
There's people calling you.
Well, me, it's different.
I'm different.
I'm sure they don't call each other.
I'd like to thank you for your courage.
Say in the morning to you the man
who put the sea in.
Call waiting.
Say hello to my friend on the other
end.
The one, the only Mr. John C.
Devorah.
Well, in the morning, you're going to say,
I'm Korean.
I'm going to ship the sea boots on
the ground.
Feet in the air, subs in the water.
Demons and knights out there.
In the morning to the trolls in the
troll room.
Hold on a second.
You want to take a guess?
Today is Thursday.
So it should be normally 18.
I'd say 1950.
2183.
Yeah, the fires.
The fires.
Yeah, that's right.
Let me see what the boys have to
say about the fires.
I'm sure they have a take on it.
Did you notice that the blue trash can
did not burn?
I'm just saying.
I'm just saying.
Yeah, that's how it goes.
Yeah, we're joking about it, but of course,
it's very sad.
Oh, it's terrible.
Fire is, I just can't imagine having, I
mean, just you lose all your stuff.
I mean, think about a James Woods.
What do you think he has in his
house?
Oh, he had memorabilia that's priceless.
Billy Crystal.
He was in that house since 1979.
Yeah.
Can you imagine the stuff he lost?
Oh, man, that is really, it makes you
want to get a big fireproof safe.
And just, well, that's not going to help
in a firestorm.
I had Michael Rogers.
It was a novelist that lived.
I know he used to be in the
Bay Area.
Used to live in the Oakland Hills when
they had the Oakland Hills fire.
And he had a fireproof safe.
But since it was a firestorm, the temperatures
increased beyond the capabilities of the fireproof safe.
He had his manuscripts in the fireproof safe.
No, no.
Ashes.
Oh, no.
You have to digitize everything and put it.
I hate to tell you this because it's
pathetic.
You have to get this stuff in the
cloud or backed up someplace outside your own
environment.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that is pretty pathetic to suggest the
cloud.
I know.
It's totally the cloud.
But yeah, you get a free terabyte for
Microsoft.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And actually, since Microsoft, I hate to plug
this product, but Microsoft Office that is, I
think, $99 a year gives you five accounts.
You get five people get to use it.
Yeah.
And each one has a terabyte.
That's five terabytes total.
You could give them the word and you
keep their terabytes.
Yeah.
And this is a good backup.
Yeah.
Or how about just— Five terabytes is a
lot.
How about just making backups on disks and
then sending them to your friends?
You could do that, too.
That works.
Like I send you from time to time
a backup of our no agenda one terabyte
drive, which has everything on it.
Yep.
And that's a great idea.
And it's not in the cloud, I will
say.
It's not in the cloud.
I just send it to you.
Well, it's probably safe with the two locations.
And I always travel with two drives in
two different bags.
Because, I mean, as long as I have
that hard drive, I can make a show.
If I don't have the hard drive, it's
going to be pretty bad.
You know, I could make a show with
a palm pilot.
As long as I have that drive, I
can do it.
The trolls, who we just counted, of which
there are many today, welcome trolls, they're listening
in through trollroom.io. That's where they can
also jump into the troll room itself and
troll along.
They've been actually quite calm today.
Although someone did ask, how come I didn't
say the Jews set the fire in California?
That was always interesting.
Mostly, especially, you know, Pacific Palisades was actually
a Jewish refugee community.
Yeah, there it is.
There it is.
And they wouldn't have set the fire?
They wouldn't have done anything but set.
Yeah, I'm surprised that the fire even burned
their places, if you're going to go with
that.
Yeah, of course, they may also be listening
on a modern podcast app, which you can
get at podcastapps.com, plural.
There's many to choose from.
And they have lots of handy whiz-bang
features, including chapters with images that rotate, that's
cool to watch.
Dreb Scott puts that together for us.
We've got transcripts.
And I'd say the best feature is you
get notified when we go live.
You can listen to the live stream on
your podcast app.
Take that, Apple.
I haven't seen that.
Or Spotify, haven't seen that from you.
And when we release the show, if you
weren't able to listen live, you get notified
within 90 seconds.
It's a good deal.
And most of these are free.
Please support your software app developers with a
little donation.
And Void Zero just texted me and said,
if you guys are serious about this, let
me run a backup for you.
That's probably a good idea.
Void Zero has good practices.
Yes.
Yes, he does.
I think that would be the right guy
to do.
Don't ask him to upgrade stuff on show
day.
He sent me a nice card.
I want to thank him for that.
Yeah, yeah.
With a pen.
Did you get the pen?
A Void Zero pen.
A Void Zero pen.
Yes, it was very cool.
I also, from- Can't have enough pens,
the way I see it.
Pens are always good.
Zach Metzinger sent me not one, but two
luggage scales.
Thank you very much, Zach.
Appreciate that.
One for Tina, one for me.
And- Maybe one should have gone to
me.
Well, I'll send it to you.
No, it's okay.
When would you need a luggage scale?
Please, when's the last time you got on
an airplane?
I'm trying to avoid it.
I'm doing a pretty damn good job.
It's like the phone in the drawer.
When is the last time you got on
an airplane?
It's been years.
Yeah, because of COVID.
So, oh, wait, you're afraid to travel?
Don't you have a mask if you want
to travel?
Maybe because of COVID.
It's because of COVID.
I don't understand.
No, ever since COVID, it got me out
of the habit of traveling so much.
And I realized that I enjoy not traveling.
It's enjoyable.
I don't know about you, but- See,
I'm- Believe me.
Tina's like, let's go somewhere.
Really?
Well, at least she's not demanding you go
horseback riding.
No.
I don't know where you came up with
that one, but no.
Luckily, no.
There's no horseback riding or skiing.
I don't do that anymore, either.
The trolls, yeah, I did the troll.
Oh, yes, of course.
Value for value.
What's that?
That is an excellent example of value for
value.
I appreciate that, Zach.
You made me feel valuable that you sent
that to me.
And I'm sure you did it because you
value what we do here on the show.
And you can do many different things for
the show.
Help out in many ways.
We always appreciate the artists who go to
noagendaartgenerator.com during the show, during the live
stream.
Sometimes a little late, and it just doesn't
quite make it.
But again, these pieces of art get used
in many different scenarios, including the chapters, the
newsletter, bat signals.
It's beautiful to have.
And it's always something people go, hey, wait
a minute.
It was like we had for the bat
signal this morning.
It was done by Comicstripblogger.
He had a noagenda square image of the
Hollywood sign burning.
That's topical.
And that makes people want to listen.
So it's good.
It's handy.
And we always like to thank our artists.
For 1727, the artwork was Francisco Scaramanga.
And we didn't have much discussion about this.
He had the cheesecake, cheesecakey, semi-cheesecake.
It's actually meta-cheesecake.
Yes, multi-city pom-pom tour, multi-coordinated
by Curry and Dvorak.
That, of course, was in regard to our
conversation about Sarah Adams.
And you said she could not even be
a pom-pom girl.
And he took it to heart.
And of course, it created an opportunity for
the noagenda shop.
Yes, it did.
Yes, it did.
That would be a great t-shirt.
That's a great t-shirt for the noagenda
shop, noagendashop.com.
So let's take a look and see, because
there was definitely a lot of AI.
Well, I like the solid one that was
below it, but you hated it.
And I don't think you could actually see
it.
No, it wasn't that I hated it.
I could not see it.
I just couldn't.
Yeah, we have to remember that Adam has
color blindness.
And if I can't see it, what good
is it?
If we're not entertaining ourselves, why bother?
Uh, well, you have accepted certain sometimes I've
overridden your color blindness.
Yes, but you didn't press it.
You didn't press it on this one.
That was no, because of the pom-pom
tour one.
I mean, I'm going with that one, too.
It's a beauty.
And I didn't, I didn't push back at
all.
Um, let me see.
What else?
There was, uh, Darren did a Superman getting
a vax.
I'm not quite sure.
So Peter Knopfhart did, uh, quaddemic, a bunch
of, uh, we should mention that the newer
artists that have come on board, the spike
protein art is nonverbal, nonstarter.
Oh, man.
For the quaddemic, they are now showing four
pictures of spike protein balls, all different colors.
So somehow norovirus is now also a ball
with spikes.
Yeah, it seems unlikely.
I would say so.
Um, what else was there that we do?
Is there anything else we discussed?
Um, yeah, I think you're right.
Uh, some government cheese stuff.
No, that wasn't the previous one.
So, uh, congratulations, Scaramanga.
Thank you.
Scaramanga always, he gets all jitty when he
gets chosen.
Yeah, I'm, I'm surprised because I know he
really, he hates the show.
I think he hates the show and he
hates the two of us.
I don't know.
You in particular.
No, I think you and me in particular,
you're in particular.
And then the minute we choose him for
art and then he's posting all over X,
like this is the best podcast in the
universe.
You should listen to this.
There's no reason you should listen to anything
else.
So it's, it's kind of, it has a
double, uh, a double function choosing him.
We get fun, good art and promotion, promotion,
promotion.
So that's the talent of the three T's
time, talent, and treasure.
We always want to thank our executive and
associate executive producers.
And this portion of the show, we thank
everybody who sends in a $50 or more,
and we'll give you the name and your
location and the amount.
And for the associate executive producers, that's $200
and above.
We will give you that title, which is
forever title.
You can use it anywhere titles are recognized
and accepted, particularly of the show business variety.
And that will be imdb.com would be
one of the main places for that.
You can use it on your LinkedIn, any
other social media profile.
And we read your note and then $300
or above.
You're an executive producer.
Same rules apply for that title forever credit.
And we read your note and we kick
it off with M plain old M from
North Tonawanda, New York with $400.
It's not, that's not a very common amount.
No, it's odd.
And it says me guys, keep up the
good work.
That is a good note.
And thank you very much.
Actually, the note is in the, in the
PDF.
It's actually high guys.
Oh, it says me guys here.
I know I'm looking at it.
It looks like an M.
Oh, okay.
I didn't read it.
I can also see what he says.
Hi guys.
Let me see.
Where's this?
Keep up the good work.
So we're at the very bottom.
Oh, from the St. Jude children's research hospital.
Yeah.
He's using the free stationery.
St. Jude sends everyone.
Yeah.
Oh, good.
It's right.
It says, hi guys.
Keep up the good work.
M.
Thank you very much.
M.
Appreciate that.
And go back to the spreadsheet here.
You got next is sir.
Tyler in Anchorage, Alaska.
Another note from sir.
Tyler in Alaska from Tyler at Tyler systems.
The Tyler at Tyler systems.com.
Thanks.
Did not receive note.
It says on here, he came in with
370.
It's $343 and 75 cents.
And I don't have a Tyler note.
I don't have one either.
So this is not the first time his
note has gone.
A no, but Tyler at Tyler systems.com.
Value for value AI stuff.
Is it not?
He's the AI guy.
Get ahold of them.
Yeah.
Tyler systems.com.
We'll read his note the next time.

What is Liptonite?
I have no idea.
Maybe Liptonite did the donation.
On behalf of DocsNet.
Please credit to DocsNet.
Okay.
Done.
Thank you very much.
Yeah.
You're going to read the next one too,
because it blows on my spreadsheet.
Quirino Martin.
In Erika, the Netherlands.
I do not familiar with this place, but
it's blue.
That means we have something going on here.
ITM gents after being in hiding in douche
baggy stand for some time.
It's here.
Finally, night status.
I would like to be known as Celtic
night of the flatter lands like the Netherlands,
but flat like everything is.
And for the round table, I would like
to add Kassambalon, which is a bitter ball
with cheese and sambal.
Is sambal the same in English?
Sambal.
Sambal.
I don't know.
Indonesian spice.
It comes in a very small little bottle,
and you open it up, and it's red.
And it's kind of like hot chili type
stuff.
But if you had Indonesian rice toffle, you
probably had it and just didn't know it.
By the way.
Okay.
On Dutch food, stroopwafel is now an official
word in the Oxford English dictionary.
That little waffle, the candy thing?
Well, it's not supposed to be little.
It's supposed to be big enough.
Yeah, it's big.
It's a big.
It's a fist sized.
Yeah, it's supposed to fit on top of
your cup of tea so it can soften
up.
Yes.
Oh, I didn't know anything about that.
Oh, okay.
So you can get these little stroopwafels, or
as people in America would say, stroopwafels.
No, stroopwafels.
And the little itty bitty ones.
That's no good.
Reject those.
You want a nice big size, which is
about the size, a little bit smaller than
a CD.
Yeah, it's about five inches.
Yeah, so the size of a CD.
And you can do with coffee, but typically
you have your cup of tea, and you
place it on top of your cup of
tea to let it soften up and get
all nice and gooey.
That is the official way of eating a
stroopwafel.
Well, this is news to me.
Well, now you're informed.
They don't put any instructions on the package.
I know, it's an outrage.
I continue with Quirano's note.
I want to greet my Celtic brothers and
sisters of the new Celtic order and all
the Germanches who are douchebags, except for one,
Hendrik.
He is also a producer.
And for the Dutchies, check out Net Neat
Live, Net Neat Live, which means not quite
live, on YouTube.
Once a month, the Celts, Mickey and Joost,
review the news and do it live with
a chat, like the Troll Room.
Episode 252 is coming up, always, the last
Saturday of the month.
They've also been around for a while, only
on audio for a long time, until YouTube
came along.
Maybe some karma would be nice for sure.
China is asshole and due to climate change.
OK, we've got both of those for you.
Greetings, Quirano Martin Utirica, Celtic Knight of the
Flatterlands.
Donald Trump don't trust China.
China is asshole.
Due to climate change.
You've got karma.
All right.
You will be knighted later.
Thank you for the note.
Turbo and Massey, um...
By the way, he don't...
Did I say 343.75?
Yeah, I think I did.
OK, yes.
Turbo.
Turbo and Massey, Michigan, 333.33. They call
me Turbo.
In the morning, John and Adam, and higher
-minded thinking into 2025.
You guys have absolutely been cracking me up
these past couple episodes.
My wife and I were making soup.
Some details not needed in your donation note,
but OK.
Listening to episode 1726 and right at 104
.04, either you or John ripped a huge
fart.
No, this is not true.
For one thing, these mics that both of
us use are highly directional in a sense.
Seems unlikely you're going to pick up that.
But we're going to fart while we're sitting
here anyway.
Well...
A huge fart.
You have been suspecting...
Let me finish this note.
A huge fart.
And my wife and I looked at each
other like, was that you?
Oh, one of those two did it.
When I looked at the oven, it read
333 on the dot.
God whispers and farts quietly, and I knew
it was time to donate again.
It has been a year since I first
donated to the show and sent you and
John a Spark Plug keychain.
I still have it.
I never got the Spark Plug keychain.
It sounds cool.
Yeah, that he was smelling.
I was smelling the Spark Plug.
Yeah, I mentioned it.
I'm donating 333 and I'm starting...
By the way, you want to send something
to Adam, ask him for his address and
he'll give it to you.
Yes, I will.
Gladly.
I'm not a remailing service here.
California, to say the least.
You get stuff eventually, but come on.
I'm starting my recurring donation based on diesel,
electric, heavy equipment, hydraulic services, turbos, truck and
trailer repair.
I don't sell you on a dream.
I clearly diagnose and inform you on what
you need.
I'm offering to anyone who mentions ITM will
get a discount of 33%.
This is a big deal.
33% off my services and we'll be
donating it directly to the show.
Oh, excellent.
Email me at TTTpayable at Outlook.com.
TTT payable.
Nice.
At Outlook.com.
Okay, we'll go with that.
We'll push that.
All right.
Now I have the episode 1776 at 103
.50. Let's listen.
Oh, that digital euro is coming.
I'd believe that.
I fully believe that's happening.
They're going to try.
Everyone wants to do these things.
Fully believe that's happening.
Fully believe it.
Of course, we have our own fun here
in the United States.
We've been tracking this for over a decade
on the show.
Let's start with some of these new tracks.
No fart heard here.
No, I didn't hear anything.
One of those two did it.
It's his wife.
You know it.
Pointing the finger at each other.
That's right.
It's his wife.
I guarantee you his wife did it.
Women do that.
Oh, no.
It's John and Adam.
All right.
John Kelber, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
333.33. Blue.
That means something's happening here.
ITM, gentlemen.
It's been a long journey from believing the
official messages of the M5M to questioning everything,
no matter how foundational.
Since hearing Adam on the higher side chats
with host Greg Carlwood, who I believe is
a knight already, Noah Jen has been an
important part of my pod journey.
That's a knife to the heart.
Now I have a human resource on the
way who I'm excited to bring along for
the ride.
They're going to love hearing about aliens and
the black cube and the true shape of
the earth.
It's a hot dog.
And, of course, your media deconstruction.
If available, please knight me Sir 10 of
nothing.
Could you order lakefront eastside dark lager and
cheese curds for the roundtable?
Why, yes, of course.
Lastly, I'd like to hear the Starman flat
earth jingle that I heard on bingit.io.
Well, you betcha, John Kelber.
And we'll see you at the roundtable.
I think that's Sir Chris.
Sir Chris.
Yeah, it sounds more like him than that
other clip, because in this case, he did
his normal off-key singing, which is what
he does.
I'm always stunned when he doesn't do that.
Anonymous, meanwhile, in Marinette, Wisconsin, three, three, three
dot three, three.
That intelligence analyst guy was hilarious.
He clearly wanted to sound mysterious with his
terminology.
So he just sounds like a fool.
Reminds me of a new troop of a
new troop talking to his family at Christmas,
fresh out of Intel School.
Yeah.
This anonymous guy is telling us something about
his business.
Yep.
You know, Dame Girl Kyle and Sir Jackie
Green.
I didn't know that they were an item.
Were you aware of this?
I was unaware of this, but now I'm
aware of it.
333 dot 33 with a handwritten note.
Oh, actually, it's I guess it looks like
they have kids together.
Either that or it's them as kids.
It could be on the other side.
Unfortunately, I don't think that Jay sent a
copy, but there's a picture of them and
the kids and the whole thing.
It's a really very, very sweet.
Well, Happy New Year, John and Adam.
333 dot 33.
Thank you for your courage in 2024.
Wishing you and your family and all of
knowage in the nation.
Lots of love, health and happiness in 2025.
Dame Girl Kyle, not Kylie and Sir Jackie
Green.
Beautiful.
Thank you both.
Ken.
Okay.
I looked it up.
Oh, good.
Well, how do you pronounce his last name?
Ariskog.
That's what I've always been saying.
Ariskog.
No, not Aris.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Yeah, I think I'm pricing air.
Oh, yeah.
Ariskog.
Listen, I got the pronunciation thingy.
Here we go.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Ariskog.
Okay.
Well, Ariskog wrote in a note and he
says, since 33333, and he writes in a
nasty note saying, now do try to do
the voice that he has normally.
Since you got my sons wrong all the
time.
Since you got my sons wrong all the
time.
I have no idea what that means.
I think son's name, I think is what
he means.
He doesn't say that.
It says sons.
Well, he got something wrong, then serves him
right.
And then he has the link to the
how to pronounce it.
And he says he's been listening with guilt.
So I guess the sons are donating.
He's not.
That's the only thing I can imagine.
Regards, Ken.
Well, thank you very much, Ken.
Mike checks in from Pennsylvania, 331.
And this donation, he says, is in loving
memory of my dear mother, Carol Ann.
You'll never know how much I love you.
You know what?
I guarantee you, Mike, she does.
Could I please have some health karma for
my father-in-law, Steve?
John and Adam, thank you for all you
do.
And for always being there for us.
Sincerely, Mike.
You bet, Mike.
Absolutely.
You've got karma.
I think what he means is that we
do shows during the periods of time when
most people take the days off.
No, I think he means that we are
there when everyone's all spun up and all
psyched out about stuff.
And we're always there to catch them as
they're falling.
Could be.
But meanwhile, Annie Williams, or Ann, could be
Ann, probably Ann.
I'm pretty sure it's Ann.
Ann Williams in Pagewood, New South Wales, it
says.
But it says U.S., so I don't
know, NSW.
So she lives in NSW somewhere.
Yes, you'd think.
She came with 220-222 and no note,
no nothing.
It came in through Stripe.
And so she gets to double up karma.
She sure does.
You've got karma.
And she is our first Associate Executive Producer.
Our second is C.
Steele from Urbandale, Iowa, 210-60.
And C.
Steele says, thank you for creating this show.
Well, I thought it was created by Dana
Brunetti.
No, Dana Brunetti, let's get it straight.
He came up with tip of the day.
Yeah, I know.
And then he grouses a lot.
Yeah, because he can't get you on the
phone.
He's calling you like a teenage girl.
Wow, callback.
You're getting pretty good at that.
I can't get John on the phone.
His line is busy, like a teenage girl.
I was introduced to the show, says C.
Steele, a few years ago.
And I do believe your ability to relay
all information in a fun matter is what
makes this show so great.
Adam, like you, I am also a follower
of Christ and have been working to walk
as close to Christ as I possibly can.
In 2018, my oldest daughter was diagnosed with
a very rare heart condition called pulmonary vein
stenosis.
It was a life-changing moment for my
entire family.
Instead of blaming God and being angry, we
have given our lives to Christ and placed
it all in his hands.
God is great through all things.
I encourage everyone to seek God, especially if
you are struggling to get through something difficult,
like a fire in Los Angeles.
We have seen miracles happen with our own
daughter, and we know he isn't finished yet.
I donate today to bring awareness for this
devastating condition and to share my family's story
of faith working through dark times.
Anyone interested can find our story by searching
Viola Marie's Heart Journey on GoFundMe.
Her journey is far from over, but God's
grace will see us through it.
Side note, we use GoFundMe as the way
to share the story because that's where my
lovely wife first started tracking everything.
Thank you again, C.
Steele.
Well, thank you.
God bless you, brother.
Uh, and now we go to the Eli
the Coffee guy.
Is that right?
Am I right?
That's right.
Eli is up next.
You're right.
Yeah, he's in Bensonville, Illinois, 201.
I'm starting to use some of his blends
instead of just a single one.
I want to thank Eli once again for
sending coffee.
We received a package for him, and he
always includes decaffeinated for Tina, which he highly
appreciates.
She can't drink caffeinated coffee?
Not anymore.
Why?
The thyroid thing.
Oh, well, who needs that?
Okay.
Well, anyway, Eli came in with 20109.
In 2025, he writes his promises starting to
get interesting.
Taiwanese internet cables cut by China.
The media completely ignoring the story about American
and Ukrainian mercenaries being captured in Venezuela from
plotting attacks to destabilize the country's leadership and
bird flu and raw milk.
With today's chaos, it's always good to have
a preparedness plan, and that preparedness plan should
include coffee.
That's why you should visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com.
Use code ITM to stock up today.
Just kidding.
No need to panic, but having extra coffee
never hurts.
They caffeinated Eli, the coffee guy.
This is true.
I mean, in an emergency, we want coffee.
That's for sure.
And then we have another Dutchie checking in
from Amersfoort, the Netherlands.
$200.
Jeroen Broers.
And he says, which I will translate.
You're doing a good job, you goat knitters.
Is that a phrase?
Yes.
Is someone who knits out of goat.
They make like a goat sweater, for example.
Yes, I didn't know goats had that much
knittable stuff on them, but yes.
Some goats are like, isn't the Merino wool
goat?
I don't know.
Is it?
I think there's some, I think there is,
or wait, there is one goat.
Somebody in the chat room knows what this
is.
There's a goat that's used, this fleece is
used to make fabric.
I don't know if it's the Merino or
not.
I mean, I could be wrong about that.
Let me see.
So goat knit.
Yeah, it would make sense.
Let me see what, I actually don't really
know where that comes from.
The Gijtenbrijers Dutchism.
Someone needs to explain.
I mean, basically, if you're a Gijtenbrijer, you're
kind of like a doofus.
Doofus.
You're a doofus.
Yeah, that's what a Gijtenbrijers.
So, but it's, it can be a term
of endearment if you say it the way
he did.
It's an Angora goat.
Maybe I'm thinking Angora.
Yes, Angora goat.
You were correct.
You are correct.
Angora.
That's a goat.
That's cashmere.
So we're, we're high-end goats.
We're high-end.
We're high-end.
Oh, there it is.
Uh, that, oh, that was it?
Yeah, that was it.
Oh, then it takes us to Linda Lupatkin.
I'd get Linded today.
She's in Lakewood, Colorado for anyone who wants
to track her down.
She is asking for jobs, Carmen.
She wants to say for a resume that
gets results, visit ImageMakersInc.com for your go
-to, uh, for all your executive resume and
job search needs.
That's ImageMakersInc with a K.
Work with Linda Lu, Duchess of Jobs and
writer of resumes.
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs.
Nikos.
Karma.
And then our final, our final associate executive
producer is Paul from Knoxville, Tennessee.
And, uh, what did, uh, what did Paul
come in with?
Paul came in with, uh, 200.
And he has a blue note.
That's good.
In the morning, John Adam enclosed $200 donation,
which according to my flawless accounting, finally brings
me to night status.
I would like to be given the title
as Super Apple of the Tennessee Hills.
I also request, uh, that the round table
be replete with high-quality tequila and tacos
of any meat-laden variety.
You got it.
I would also like to take this moment
to thank you all for what you do,
exposing the mainstream media for what it is,
an overflowing Port of John at an Indian
food festival.
Nice visual.
And to John.
To John.
Oh, I think he's got it mixed up.
I like it better this way.
And to John.
I've enjoyed hearing about your faith journey, and
I hope that it continues to be fruitful
and as a positive influence on Knowage and
the nation.
What are you doing when I'm not talking
to you, John?
Especially those who may be on the— Catholics
don't have faith journeys, so you got to
be a little more charismatic.
Catholics don't have faith journeys?
Not really.
What, they just pop out of the womb
like that?
None of the same sort.
None of that variety.
Of the charismatics.
Careful now.
I'm going to start speaking in tongues.
Especially those who may be on their own
road to Christianity.
Well, I certainly hope so.
Lastly, I would like to request some jobs,
Karma, and a few of my favorites.
Okay.
Little girl, yay.
I'd like a Sharpton montage.
I got a little Sharpton for you.
And the noodle gun.
Well, you really are asking for a lot,
but we can do it for you.
And we will see you at the round
table.
He concludes by saying, May 2025 be a
year of blessings for you and your families,
as well as for all of Knowage and
the nation.
Thanks to you, Ed.
Is this crown hog day two?
We are watching.
That was Attorney General Eric Holder.
ABDs about some Republicans at home are already
beating the drums of war.
Today, the Pentagon refuted that claim.
And he said the American people do not
want him to quote, dwindling.
They do not want him dwindling his thumb.
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
Let's vote for jobs.
Yes, I am reliably informed Catholics have pilgrimage,
pilgrimages.
You don't have journeys.
You pilgrimages.
So we so Sharpton is still working for
MSNBC after taking that $500,000 bribe from
Kamala to do a softball interview with her.
That's a good question, because I did notice
she have an article here.
Let me see.
Let's see who is left mainstream.
Coda, Hoda, Hoda, Hoda is leaving the Today
Show.
You know that?
Do you know she's leaving?
Oh, yeah.
She talks about it on the other.
Nora O'Donnell.
You were right.
Leaving CBS Evening News took forever.
Well, she'll be doing her.
She's taking on a special correspondent.
Oh, yeah, that's what you do.
That's how they fire you out.
Fired, fired.
Jeff Glor.
He was kicked out in September.
I thought Jeff Glor always did good work.
And it's really weird to me that he
lost his job.
Of course, Chris Wallace bid farewell to CNN.
Of course, he's going to be the next
Joe Rogan.
He's going to do a podcast.
Chris Wallace.
Yes, he left.
Yeah, he's doing podcast.
I thought he left a while ago.
Okay.
Well, this is.
Podcast Chris Wallace.
There's no Joe Rogan in Chris Wallace.
The Wallace pod.
Allison Camerota, Neil Cavuto.
Cavuto has been ill.
He's been ill?
I didn't know that.
He's been ill.
He's dying, basically.
Really?
What does he have?
That's horrible.
He's got some sort of horrible condition.
Oh, I didn't know that.
You know who I still miss?
Our guy.
Who was our guy?
Charles Krauthammer.
Krauthammer.
Well, he's dead.
I know.
Hello.
Yes, he's dead.
But I miss him.
He was he was a great.
And the other guy, our Russia guy.
I miss him, too.
Oh, the Russia guy.
I mean, I kind of miss him.
What was his name?
Yes, Stephen.
Stephen was a cone or.
Yes, Stephen Cone.
I think you're right.
Yeah.
Anyway, as long as we don't have to
miss each other, as long as we're still
here, it's all good.
And with that, we want to thank our
executive and associate executive producers of episode 1728.
Thank you for making it a reality.
And of course, we look forward to thanking
everybody who came in over $50 in our
second segment.
Once again, those credits are for a lifetime.
You all become a producer today.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the
mouth.
Order.
Misfire.
Misfire.
Donald Trump, don't trust China.
China is asshole.
That's what was supposed to be in there.
Misfire.
Misfire.
I have a clip that I'd like to
play.
OK.
Because I don't know what it is.
No, that's always fun.
This is like a potluck.
It's total potluck.
This is the OSP good news clip.
Hmm.
The good news is that there is no
more bad news.
Goodbye.
That was probably meant to be an ISO,
but you mistook it.
That's what it was.
OSP.
It's just like ISO.
I-S-O.
I is next to the O.
You got the S.
Yeah, it was...
Touch typing doesn't work.
Literally, I, O, and P are all together
on the keyboard.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Now it makes sense.
I was looking at my ISOs.
I thought I had three ISOs.
That's really bad.
There it is.
That's really bad.
Hey, we need to do a little update
because, as you know, the quaddemic is upon
us.
We've got everything going.
The quaddemic is a growing concern in much
of the country here in Southern California.
The mask mandate at most hospitals never went
away after the pandemic, but more mandates are
returning due to a surge in respiratory illnesses.
Medical experts had predicted it due to the
holiday season, with millions of Americans mixing and
mingling at airports and family gatherings.
And now further spread is expected as millions
head back to work and school.
Hospitalizations are up sharply in major cities, including
Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago.
Health officials are advising the immunocompromised to mask
in public to prevent illness.
In Wisconsin, a major health care group is
reinstating a mask mandate beginning next week.
The quaddemic means the threat of flu, COVID,
RSV, and neurovirus, which is commonly known as
stomach flu.
That's been rampant in many communities.
And for most, stomach flu means a very
unpleasant 48 hours.
Did she say neuro?
Let me hear.
Mask mandate beginning next week.
The quaddemic means the threat of flu, COVID,
RSV, and neurovirus.
What a dope.
It's noro.
Yeah.
Commonly known as neuro.
Neuro.
That's good.
Of course.
Well, they haven't slipped that other one and
they don't know what to do.
Which one?
That one that knew that phony baloney pneumonia.
HMPV.
That one.
Yeah, that one.
But I will tell you, there are young
people who are in the hospital with severe
pneumonia.
It's probably from that.
I'm sorry?
It's probably from that.
From HMPV?
It could be.
It could be.
It's not good.
It's really, it's not good.
What do I have here?
I had...
I have a funny virus, a vax clip.
Well, I got a bird flu.
I got a bird flu.
We got to do bird flu.
Because, you know, we've had the first death
from the bird flu.
There's some growing concerns over bird flu this
morning.
Health officials in Louisiana now reporting the first
known human death from that virus.
Let's bring in NBC News medical contributor, Dr.
John Torres.
Dr. John, let's talk about this specific case
down in Louisiana.
What more do we know about it?
And that's a concerning thing is the first
human death here in the United States from
bird flu.
He was over the age of 65, had
other underlying medical conditions, which is one of
those things that we look at when we
look at other conditions as well.
And on top of that, he had severe
respiratory illness, had been in the hospital since
December.
And unfortunately, he passed away at this point.
Talk about the trajectory.
I mean, this is something that officials are
watching very closely, but we haven't crossed that
threshold of human to human.
Well, it's multiple stages.
You see, it's a trajectory.
We haven't quite...
Unfortunately, we still don't have human to human.
We really want it.
What are the steps?
How do we get there, doctor?
Contagion.
Exactly.
And there's four stages, basically, if you think
about it.
There's bird to bird, which is stage one.
Stage two is bird to other animals.
Dairy cows, for example.
Stage three is animals to humans.
And that's where we are right now in
those 66 cases here in the United States.
We're excited.
In cases worldwide as well.
And the one we get concerned with is
when it starts going animal to human.
That's stage four.
I mean, sorry, human to human.
Stage four.
We haven't gotten to that stage yet.
And that's the stage you're keeping a close
eye.
Although there were mutations in this patient here,
that could make it more susceptible to human
to human transmission.
But we haven't seen that yet.
We have mutations.
We have mutations.
Now, what is always the follow up question
to these reports?
Well, it should be.
Will a vax help?
No.
Is there any vax on the horizon?
No, no.
That's not the follow up.
The follow up question is always, should we
be concerned?
Should we be afraid?
Should we be worried?
Well, I thought that wasn't even a question.
It's something that's assumed.
We should be right.
We should be scared out of our wits.
People are watching this and thinking, oh, I'm
a little afraid of that.
Should they be?
And number two, like, what are the symptoms
for bird flow?
And right now, the risk is low, according
to the CDC, the World Health Organization, all
the experts.
And so it is low.
But you do want to be concerned.
This person in Louisiana got it from backyard
poultry, backyard, backyard wild birds.
He came in contact with us.
You want to be careful.
Anytime you're around dead animals, do not handle
them.
If they're sick, do not handle them.
That's somebody who knows what they're doing.
Make sure you have safe food practices, eggs,
meat, those types of things.
Don't drink unpasteurized dairy products.
I know there's some people that are very
big fans of that, but don't drink because
of bird flu.
And then make sure you get your flu
shot, because if you get a combination of
human flu and bird flu at the same
time, that makes it more likely it could
mutate into that human to human transmission.
Don't want that to happen.
Really?
What kind of science is this?
If you get human flu and bird flu,
that could mutate in your body.
And then you become Mary.
These people, it's just wasting airtime, valuable airtime
on nonsense.
But wait, what does bird flu cause?
What do you get with bird flu?
You get not enough eggs.com.
This morning, shoppers are scrambling to find store
shelves stocked with eggs.
Rising cases of the bird flu are forcing
egg suppliers to cut production, causing shortages nationwide
and skyrocketing prices.
Government data shows egg prices are up nearly
38% in the past year.
Prices spiking 8% just in November ahead
of the high demand holiday baking season.
On average, a dozen eggs will cost you
$3.65 now compared to $2.14 one
year ago, with prices cheapest in the South
averaging $3.40 and most expensive on the
West Coast at $4.20. For retailers buying
eggs wholesale in California, a carton is nearly
$9.
Now we get cartons of 18.
What are the eggs cost with you in
California there?
It depends on where you get them.
You go to Costco and you want the
high-end eggs or you get the regular
eggs or you want crappy eggs.
No, we want good eggs.
A good egg is $8 a carton for
12.
Oh, we have $8 for 18.
It's expensive.
Okay, you get six extra eggs.
That's right.
Well, it's typical.
We get ripped off out here for some
reason, even though we're the agricultural state, California.
We got birds and chickens.
We get the Petaluma chickens.
We gross everything, but for some reason, everything
costs more here because of regulations.
I get my eggs.
What I pay for the highest quality eggs
is nothing.
Jay has a bunch of chickens.
Right.
They can't keep up with eating these eggs.
They have to give them away.
So I get like a half a dozen
eggs for free every week.
Wait a minute.
She has too many eggs.
Have you considered giving her the gift of
too many eggs.com?
Just saying, it's a great book if she
has too many eggs.
That's right.
And she has to be careful.
They are backyard flock.
So if one dies, do not pet it.
You know, the thing is talking about plugs,
I have to do this.
Horowitz says to me, you know, our numbers
are down.
Can you plug DHM plug?
Because we're always plugging the no agenda show,
as you know.
That's right.
That's true.
Every single DHM plug show has a plug
for no agenda.
So DHM plug, which is a stock market
show, which we have great tips, even though
they're illegal, you know, they're not meant to
be tips, but they are.
What do you mean?
They're illegal.
You can't go off telling people what stocks
to buy.
You never say that.
Yeah, there's a disclaimer at the very end.
You actually did one of them.
We don't use yours, but we use that.
No, mine is on the Disciplined Investor podcast,
which is another great podcast that Horowitz does.
Yeah, well, he uses another disclaimer on this
podcast.
Yeah.
And then yeah, his Disciplined Investor podcast has
been around as long as podcasting has existed.
He's been doing that.
It's he has been around for a long
time.
It's a very good show.
It's very entertaining.
It's John in a very different mode.
You're very different.
You're very different on that show.
You realize I'm not funny.
Is that what you're telling me?
No, no, like you're funny on this show.
Please come on.
I had a thought about that Surgeon General
report.
DHMplug.com, everybody.
DHMplug.com.
Before you do that, let's play the Vax
clip.
Oh, you got a Vax clip?
Yeah, this is Vax efficacy.
This is a bull crap clip.
This is part of the, in fact, the
clips you played also about the prices of
eggs is trying to down.
I think this whole egg shortage thing is
just another attempt to downplay the fact that
all these prices increased under the Biden administration.
They're looking for any reason.
Yeah, but Costco literally is out of eggs
in San Antonio.
No eggs.
They got no eggs.
I went to Costco the other day and
they had eggs, but they didn't have the
good eggs.
Well, Tina couldn't find any eggs at Costco.
Well, Costco's got to get it together.
The COVID and flu vaccine lasts for months
while others like the measles vaccine offer protection
for life.
Why?
Why?
Why?
What is this?
Why is everybody doing that?
Why?
I'm serious.
This is.
I don't know.
Horowitz does it too, I might add.
It's a, it's a plague.
This is the why plague.
This is something new.
This is something new where people are just,
they just, why?
And they answer their own question.
In fact, I think what people should do
now is say, here, I'll let me listen
to this guy here.
The COVID and flu vaccine lasts for months
while others like the measles vaccine offer protection
for life.
Why?
And then you should follow it up by
saying, that's a great question.
Haha.
I want people to start.
Why?
That's a great question.
That would actually fit in with the, with
the model.
You could do that.
Why?
Because it's a great question.
Great question.
Measles vaccine offer protection for life.
Why?
Why?
Why?
NPR's Emily Kwong reports on a new discovery
that shed light, shed light on vaccine durability.
Vaccines are powerful because they train your immune
system for viral battle.
That includes encouraging the creation of antibodies, which
act like security guards to recognize and fight
germs.
Now, scientists at Stanford Medicine have found an
ally in that fight.
Megakaryocytes.
Found in bone marrow, more active megakaryocytes appear
to create a more nurturing environment for those
antibodies.
So, vaccines which activate megakaryocytes may confer longer
immunity.
Bali Palendran was lead author on the paper
in Nature Immunology, and he says this discovery
is important because.
It's not a question of if the next
pandemic will emerge, it's a question of when.
It's a question of when.
It's a question of when the next pandemic
is going to emerge.
And Palendran wants this basic research to lead
to better, longer lasting vaccines.
For NPR News, I'm Emily Kwong.
This also doesn't make sense.
They say that the measles vaccine lasts a
lifetime.
That's not true.
They're always telling people to get a top
up.
Well, you mean a booster, top down.
Nobody calls it a top up.
I do.
I call it a top up.
I like that.
But here's what I have to ask.
So, this research comes out and it's like,
well, why?
In other words, this starts with the premise,
why don't these vaccines work?
Yeah.
You know, you get the shot and three
months later, you need a booster.
Yeah, because they're not vaccines.
So, they come up with this cockamamie bull
crap, I think is bull crap, because when
was the first vaccine?
Can you come close to the date of
the original vaccine?
What year it was?
This was.
Don't look it up.
No, I'm not looking it up.
I want to say it was like 1790
or something.
1796.
No, I did not look it up.
I don't want to accuse me.
Well, you nailed it.
1796.
So, in 1796, till today, this
little tidbit of information has been undiscovered.
Bull crap.
All of a sudden we got something new.
Well, that's like to the surgeon general warned
us that any alcohol use will cause cancer.
Any.
There's no such thing as moderation.
Any.
You know what I think is going to
happen?
Two things.
One, a report is going to drop coming
up soon.
Massive skyrocketing cancer.
Yeah, there's a lot of evidence that that
could happen.
Two, the cure.
What is the cure?
Abstinence.
What helps you abstain?
Ozempic.
That's correct.
Put it in the Red Book.
You already put it in there, I think.
Well, but I'm connecting these two for the
first time.
They're going to come out.
It's all connected.
They do a pretty good job of trying
to, you know, the people they have, the
number of people in the State Department and
at CIA and elsewhere, the number of public
relations specialists in these organizations is in the
thousands.
And they put them together and they write
books for people.
They sit down, they strategize.
They do all the stuff that PR people
normally do.
Only they have so many of them.
They can come up with these grand schemes.
And that's obviously already been strategized.
All you're doing is just stating the obvious.
Well, we know one thing for sure.
Vaccines do not, repeat, do not cause autism.
with autism spectrum disorder and epilepsy.
In a study published in the journal Nature
Molecular Psychiatry, doctors say this discovery points them
toward developing treatments to alleviate symptoms of both
conditions, which can often occur together.
Previous research has identified the role of Neuropilin
2, but until now, researchers were not able
to determine how and why it altered behavior.
I smell more mRNA coming.
Yeah.
Yeah, that and probably, yeah.
Some gene altering stuff is going to save
your children.
And then something that we've been talking about
since the beginning of this show, ever since
I read in the book, Legacy of Ashes
and Uncle Don confirmed it, that the CIA
or covert operations would put fluoride into an
enemy's camp water supply to make them docile
and compliant.
We've talked about fluoride in our water being
an undesirable product.
But of course, we know that this is
part from, comes, I think, initially from Alcoa.
It's a byproduct from aluminum production, and they
needed to do something with it.
Might as well just put it in the
water so those slaves can be stupid.
Yeah, that's where they dilute it.
And there's new research.
Tonight, growing questions about whether fluoride in drinking
water is doing more harm than good.
No way.
A report published today in JAMA Pediatrics concludes
there is a statistically significant association between higher
fluoride exposure and lower IQ scores in children.
The study, funded by the National Institutes of
Health, analyzed existing research conducted outside the United
States.
The lead author telling NBC News there is
concern that pregnant women and children are getting
fluoride from many sources, including drinking water, and
that their total fluoride exposure is too high.
The research is being criticized by many in
the public health community.
52 of the 74 studies it looked at
are rated low quality, according to the authors
themselves.
The conclusions, based on fluoride levels, more than
double what's recommended for drinking water in the
U.S. The ongoing benefits of community water
fluoridation at this time strongly outweigh the flawed
analyses that are presented in this paper that's
just being published.
Mr. Roboto.
So your kids, good news.
Your kids will have healthy, strong teeth, but
they'll be retarded.
Yay!
Good news, everybody.
Superior fluoride toothpaste.
Fluoride has been added to U.S. drinking
water since the 40s.
More than 70 percent of Americans get it
in their taps.
The CDC, American Dental Association, and American Academy
of Pediatrics support fluoridating water, citing studies it
reduces tooth decay by 25 percent.
Cavities can obviously cause pain and suffering.
People can get very bad infections.
Also, many people miss time from school, from
work.
The issue is getting growing attention because of
new research and recent public comments by RFK
Jr., Donald Trump's choice to lead HHS.
The Trump White House will advise all U
.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public
water.
In an editorial in JAMA Pediatrics, Dr. Bruce
Lanphier says today's study shows it is time
to reassess fluoride in drinking water.
The conclusions are sufficient to raise serious questions
about fluoride's toxicity to the developing brain.
That means we need to pause.
We need to give ourselves a chance to
look at this evidence fresh.
The best part of waking up is fluoride
in my cup.
That's right.
It's the best part of waking up.
You don't think fluoride could have anything to
do with autism, do you?
Since it alters your brain.
They're going to find out if they can
get Kennedy in.
I think.
Although he could just be a foil.
Aren't those things supposed to start soon?
The confirmation hearing?
Yeah, they're starting I think this next week.
And I think they claim that Hegseth is
in.
They claim that Kennedy is in.
Oh, really?
Who's the current thought is?
Who is the they?
Who is the people within the people in
Congress that keep tabs on this stuff?
I think Ash Patel.
I don't know.
And I think the one they're going to
push back on is Tulsi.
Yeah, that's oh, nobody wants Tulsi.
She's bad.
She's bad.
She's a Russian spy.
Didn't you know that?
That's what I heard.
She hung out with dictators like Assad.
She's bad.
And she's got a weird purple thing in
her hair.
She's bad.
She'd be the best thing for the intelligence
community.
Do you know who our current director of
national intelligence is?
I can't remember his name.
I know.
No, it's not even it's not even a
he.
It's a she.
Avril Haines.
Oh, yes, I do know this Avril.
And she was national security director of national
intelligence under, I think, under Obama.
And again, under Biden.
Yeah, Avril Haines.
And she looks like a dork.
You should look at her wiki page.
Yeah, I'm looking at it.
She's like, what is this woman?
And Tulsi's no good.
Of course.
Oh, yeah.
Avril Haines looks like she looks like another
pom-pom girl.
Wannabe.
Yeah.
Wannabe.
Yeah.
What's her what is her history?
Goofball looking.
Goofball.
That's it.
Goofball.
She's a goofball looking girl.
Let me see where he's worked.
It was born in New York.
Okay.
What is that?
Yeah.
Rutgers grew up Upper West Side.
Yeah.
Wait a minute.
When is she Jewish?
Oh, that says enough.
She took up flying lessons in New Jersey.
She's a pilot.
Where she met her future husband.
She went to Hunter College High.
Yeah.
Moved to Japan.
Oh, here we go.
Starts off.
Moved to Japan for some unknown reason for
a year.
That'll do it.
Where she was at the Kodokan, an elite
judo institute.
Oh, she's a judoka.
Then she went from there to the University
of Chicago where she studied physics.
So she is a nerd.
She started repairing car engines at a mechanic
shop in Hyde Park.
She took up flying lessons in New Jersey.
She's a tomboy.
B.S. in physics.
She's a physicist.
It's interesting.
That's a good sign.
She was also appointed by President Barack Obama
to be deputy director of the CIA.
Moved to Baltimore.
Enrolled in a doctoral student program in physics
at Johns Hopkins.
Well, that's a spook city.
Spook city.
So that's where she became a spook.
What else?
Anyway.
Yes.
No, she was the deputy director of the
CIA by Obama.
I think because we try to be a
show for the Gulf of America, we have
not really covered this well.
And it comes at the end of another
broadcast day.
I think we just need to have a
quick discussion about Justin Trudeau.
Tonight, deeply unpopular at home because of soaring
prices and ridiculed by President-elect Trump, Canada's
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau bowing out.
I intend to resign as party leader, as
Prime Minister, after the party selects its next
leader through a robust nationwide competitive process.
The son of a popular Prime Minister, Trudeau's
movie star looks and photogenic young family made
him an international star.
In recent years, he was criticized for inflation
and immigration.
Three weeks ago, his closest advisor, the deputy
Prime Minister, resigned.
And it has become clear to me that
if I'm having to fight internal battles, I
cannot be the best option in that election.
A final blow, tension with President-elect Trump,
who's threatened Canada with 25 percent tariffs.
Despite Trudeau rushing to Mar-a-Lago to
appease him, Trump blamed Canada for fentanyl and
undocumented immigrants crossing the border, and Canada's trade
advantage with the U.S., mocking him on
Truth Social as a governor.
Posting today, many people in Canada love being
the 51st state.
What's the impact of having a leadership crisis
in Canada?
I actually think it probably smooths the relationship,
since clearly Donald Trump and Justin Trudeau were
not on the same page.
Trudeau will still be Prime Minister for a
few months of Trump's presidency, while Canada decides
how to replace him.
This is the old Canadian switcheroo.
Everyone's all happy, like, oh, Trudeau's gone.
No, no, no, no.
He's not gone.
He's not gone.
The parliament is prorogued.
Is that the term?
I've never heard this term.
Yes.
That's, yes, we have.
Prorogued.
That's the suspension.
That means they can't do much.
Prorogued.
They haven't been able to do much anyway.
We had that in the UK, too.
Parliament is prorogued.
Order is prorogued.
Until March, end of March.
And they're going to elect an internal leader.
So it's not like they get elections.
They just get another doofus.
Who do you think they'll choose?
Well, from the looks of things, they're going
to have to choose somebody outside of the
Labour Party.
No.
No, you don't do that as a Labour.
You never do that as a Labour.
Labour Party's going to choose from inside their
ranks.
No, not on Canada.
Canada's Labour Party's down to hardly anybody.
It's going to be a dead party.
Can't, well, it's not like the British Labour
Party.
Can't they bring Freeland back?
I don't know what they're going to do.
Who can tell?
And that concludes our discussion on Canada.
Doug Ford.
That's it.
That's all.
I don't know what he's doing.
I don't know.
We're just waiting for him to become the
next province.
Let's see what the CBC says.
As you all know, I am a fighter.
And I am not someone who backs away
from a fight, particularly on a...
Liberal.
It's Liberal Party, not Labour.
The Liberal Party.
Thank you.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You're right.
You're right.
A fight is as important as this one
is.
For Justin Trudeau, who for months resisted calls
from his own MPs that he step down
for the good of their party, the realization
finally set in.
This was a fight he could not win.
This country deserves a real choice in the
next election.
And it has become clear to me that
if I'm having to fight internal battles, I
cannot be the best option in that election.
Trudeau appeared today outside his home at Rideau
Cottage, where he held daily briefings during the
COVID pandemic to announce the end of a
political era.
After nearly a decade as prime minister, he's
stepping down.
I intend to resign as party leader, as
prime minister, after the party selects its next
leader through a robust, nationwide, competitive process.
Asked about his legacy, Trudeau says he's proud
of his government's work on reconciliation and helping
the middle class.
His greatest regret, breaking his promise to bring
in electoral reform.
For now, Trudeau says he's asked the governor
general to prorogue Parliament until March 24th.
That will give the Liberals time, though not
much, to pick a new leader, but it
will also be, Trudeau says, a much needed
break.
Parliament has been entirely seized by obstruction and
filibustering and a total lack of productivity.
And it's time for a reset.
So the suggestions from the troll room are
the McKenzie brothers, Wayne Gretzky, and, you know,
I was listening, Jordan Peterson, good one.
I was listening to a pod, to the
Truanon podcast.
You ever heard of the Truanon podcast?
No.
And they claim that Trudeau, that Elon Musk
is actually Canadian.
He's not Australian at all.
He's never been Australian.
He's a South African.
I'm sorry, South African.
That he's Canadian.
No, he's not.
I'm just telling you.
Maybe he could be the prime minister.
He could be the governor of Canada.
Is that actually possible?
Could we do that?
Could we make Canada a 51st state?
Could we buy them?
Too much work.
And I've thought about this.
You don't want Canada to be the 51st
or 51st and 52nd state.
Canada's basis for existing is so much different
than ours.
Ours, we fought a revolution.
We shot the bad guys.
We ran the place, ran them out of
town, and we're tough guys.
Canada accomplished the same thing, but they did
it differently.
Their whole mechanism for getting where they got
is by complaining.
The Canadians complain and complain and complain about
everything.
Who needs that aggravation?
I'm going to show my support by donating
to No Agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
You have successfully cured me of any thoughts
of having Canada as a member of our
union.
We don't want the complainers.
You're absolutely right.
It would be miserable.
It'd be horrible.
And now it is time to thank the
rest of our donors for episode 1728.
These are producers who have done their duty
and have produced by sending us one of
the three Ts, time, talent, treasure.
You can do lots of things to help
this show out.
Lots of things to save costs by creating
things that we desperately need.
See void zero.
But then there's always the treasure part of
the three Ts.
And John is going to take us through
the 50s right now.
Yeah, starting with Sir Mark of the Big
Kielbasa in Warsaw, Poland.
Hey, kurwa.
One, two, three, four, five.
Favorite donation.
Stephen Belode in Lafayette, Louisiana, 100.
He has some, he's going to become a
podcaster, I guess.
What does he say?
See if there's anything we need to discuss.
But I'm going to continue as you look
at that.
Zachary Vickers in Lincoln, Nebraska, 100.
I'm not anywhere near the fires for people
who want to know.
I'm 440 miles away.
Quite, quite some distance.
Yeah.
Zachary Vickers in Lincoln, Nebraska has came in
again.
No, wait, well, shouldn't he be an associate
exec?
Yeah, I guess we'll move him up.
But he came in another 100 and he
says apology donation for the first donation.
Sorry about the bad joke about Dvorak and
the fires.
Well, that's a double.
He's, I'm putting him in right now.
You are an associate executive producer.
I'm glad we always check these.
Very good.
Again, and, you know, I'm nowhere near the
fires.
And so the joke was lost, just lost,
just lost to the void.
Tan Hawk Lai, 100 dollars.

I would like to tell all the producers
out there who love trying to help me
out, sending me ISOs, end of show ISOs,
and I do have a number today.
Um, please note that we are never looking
for an ISO of ourselves.
That is not the idea.
And ISOs of someone saying in the morning
also will never fly.
I just need to say that because people
keeps, oh, this guy said in the morning.
No, no, we're not looking for that.
Um, here's a couple that I have.
I'll start off since I have one, two,
three, five of them.
I hate to say this, but it feels
like 2020 all over again.
How about this one?
It's so cool.
It's a little muddy.
Look at that thing.
It's so big.
It's a little, a little lewd.
How about this one?
So refreshing.
So refreshing.
Actually, I can go for that one.
Or trolling Canada.
Trolling Canada.
I think so refreshing is.
So refreshing.
Yeah, I kind of like so refreshing.
I do.
I like that too.
What do you have?
That could win.
So I got three.
I got this one.
We played early OSP.
Good news.
The good news is that there is no
more bad news.
Goodbye.
A little on the long side, but I
like it.
I could live with it.
And let's try.
Stay safe, please.
Stay safe, please.
Now we have much better.
Stay safe than that.
And then guys.
These guys know what they are doing.
There it is.
There it is.
That's the one.
Because that's the truth.
These guys know what they are doing.
We know what we are doing.
And we also have John's tip of the
day to prove it.
I'm excited.
The highlight.
Oops, sorry.
The highlight of every single show is, of
course, John's tip of the day.
This is a process tip.
Process tip.
Yeah, process.
A process you go through.
Okay.
So if anyone wants to listen to something
interesting, you should listen to, I think it's
a recent Scott Adams diatribe complaining about the
fact that he's been ripped off by Amazon.
For his book?
His book and his calendar in particular.
How did he get ripped off?
Well, the calendar only has one official place
that sells it.
He says that the counterfeit versions are for
sale on Amazon.
And he can't get them off?
No.
Wow.
He tried to get him off.
It's a rigmarole.
He says as far as he's concerned, they're
making money off of them.
Wow.
Is he going to sue them?
Is he going to sue them?
This is the thing that bugs me about
this diatribe.
And a lot of people have sent it
in to me.
It says he's not going to sue them.
And it's a lawsuit for copyright violation.
He could easily do it.
But he doesn't want to hurt his sales
of his other books that he knows are
legit that are going through the system.
Even though he's probably getting ripped off.
What kind of weenie is that?
He's a weenie.
He's very much of a weenie when it
comes to this.
But the thing that the tip of the
day is the fact that Jay or me,
we actually bought a couple of memory cards
recently that were from Amazon.
And they were bad.
Oh, no.
They were counterfeits.
Did they have one K on them instead
of one gig?
They didn't even work.
And I will say I don't run into
that so much.
But if you go to use AliExpress, almost
all the memory there you buy from them
is no good.
It's just fake.
They have the right packaging, kind of.
But then it looks a little fishy, a
little shady.
It's basically just a piece of plastic you're
jamming into your computer.
That's it?
Well, there's sometimes, like you said, there's one
K, but it registers as full.
But it's bullcrap.
They said they've messed with the headers and
they make it look like bigger than it
is.
These Chinese are no good.
But with Amazon, this has been going on
for a long time because I noticed this
years ago.
And Amazon, because they could use outside vendors
and these vendors are crooked.
With Amazon, the tip of the day is
look at the one star reviews of all
the products you buy at Amazon because it
will be revealed because it is the season
of reveal.
It will be revealed in the one star
reviews that these cards, these chips, these thumb
drives are bullcrap.
It's always in there.
Amazon has no product because they just let
the stuff, you know, people send us the
complaints in and they stay there and they
get posted.
So it's very easy to spot.
It's not like, you know, if you don't
do any work at all and don't even
try or see if there's a one star
review or even two star review, you're making
a huge mistake.
You're going to be buying faulty product.
That's, you know, Tina is a big review
person.
She, first of all, she will review things,
but she always looks at the reviews for
everything.
And she winds up buying nothing because there's
always a bunch of people going like, this
thing's no good.
It sucks.
It was bogus.
I hated this place.
The restaurant's no good.
I got food poisoning.
There's always one star reviews.
You got to be careful.
I believe most reviews are either bogus from
the company themself or from competitors.
And also I agree with that.
But I will say that if you look
at the one star reviews on we're talking,
this is specific to memory products.
Okay.
I'm with you on that.
The memory products, there'll be somebody saying this
is a fake product that doesn't have their
amount of memory.
And that's usually not some from this, some
disgruntled competitor with memory people.
They don't do that to each other.
There's a code of conduct amongst the memory
people.
Apparently.
I would think there would be.
So that's your tip of the day.
All right.
There it is.
Ladies and gentlemen, go to tipoftheday.net or
noagendafund.com for more of John's tip of
the day.
That's right.
Created by Danny Brunetti, who cannot get ahold
of you because your line is busy.
Phone's off the hook at the moment.
Course.
Oh, good.
Very good.
That's not always been the case throughout the
show.
The history of the show, but it's off
the hook now.
And this concludes our broadcast day of media
deconstruction for you.
Our thoughts and indeed, my prayers are with
all in Los Angeles.
And coming up next on No Agenda Stream,

And from Northern Silicon Valley, where it's seasonably
warm.

Madam Mayor, do you think you should have
been visiting Gano?
Do you owe citizens an apology for being
absent while their homes were burning?
Do you regret cutting the fire department budget
by millions of dollars, Madam Mayor?
Elon Musk says that you're utterly incompetent.
Are you considering your position?
Madam Mayor, have you absolutely nothing to say
to the citizens today?
You're dealing with this disaster.
No apology for them.
Have you absolutely nothing to say to the
citizens today?
When the hills of Los Angeles are burning,
who's in command?
The inferno engulfing Los Angeles.
Democrat mismanagement with misplaced environmentalism had stood up
with a heady mix of DEI-inspired incompetence.
Right now, if you need help, emergency information,
all of this can be found at URL.
We must not be afraid to define our
enemy.
It is Islamic extremist terrorism.
On that deadly attack in New Orleans in
the French Quarter tonight, the FBI has put
out new images of the suspect just hours
before the attack.
He is seen placing coolers containing explosive devices
along Bourbon Street.
The soldier who took his life outside of
the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas said he
was trying to draw attention to the country's
problems.
You said that you guys think that they've
sent at least 15, Al-Qaeda alone has
sent at least 1,500 people into the
United States.
Correct.
What do they plan on doing with them?
They have a 2025 multi-coordinated, multi-city
plot to avenge the death of Osama Bin
Laden.
We've been warning about what's happening for damn
near a year now.
We have these invisible bombs.
Do you know about the invisible bombs?
Oh no!
The invisible bombs?
John, do you know about the invisible bombs?
No, but I'm about to find out.
Adios, mofo.

These guys know what they are doing.
