Wow. Pre crime.

Adam curry. Chelsea Dvorak, Sunday,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

September 8, 2024 this is your award winning give our nation media assassination Episode 1693

Unknown

this is no agenda, countering

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Canadian disinformation and broadcasting live from the cruise ship, capital of Mexico, just north of Puerto Rita in the morning. Everybody. I'm Adam curry and

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

from Northern Silicon Valley, where the NFL season has begun, and it's more gay than ever. I'm John C Dvorak. Buzzkill,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

wait a minute, wasn't the first game in Brazil

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that was on Friday? Yeah. Oh. Was

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that the first game of the season? And why was the first

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

game? Was the night before. Was Thursday. Oh, it was the chiefs. And you said beating up on the Ravens. You said

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it was more gay than ever.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, one of the quarterbacks of one of the teams that they talk a lot about is wearing a red fingernail polish. I don't know what that means, but it just seems a little

Adam CurryAdam Curry

unusual. Well, I can tell they are. They're alienating their core audience.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, no, I don't think so. Everyone's got to be open,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, especially the opening of the show. All right, hey, we are a value for value podcast. That means that we give you this show completely free, open, no pay walls, no hurdles, no levels, no no mandatory subscription, no premium content behind the firewall,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it's all premium. No mugs for sale.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Although I have started calling what we're doing mug club media. It's mug club media, everybody. I'm looking for a word that's the opposite of mass media, and it's value for value based. And the best I could come up with is mug club media. I don't think it works.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's no good. It's

Unknown

no good.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, unlike Lex Friedman, you know, the start of his interview with Trump, he had nine minutes of ads at the top of the show.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You know, if I was him, I would do the same thing.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But if you were an advertiser, you'd probably be upset. No one was because they

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

jammed them all together, and it was just they got weaker and weaker in terms of their impact. Is that what you're saying?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, I'm saying that that's what the fast forward button is for. No one's gonna listen to those ads. Everyone

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

goes, yeah, there's that. That's a fact, yeah.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So I don't know. We also are not getting any tenant media money, which, by the way, I've done a little bit of race. What tenant Media Go? Know It? Yes, you do. That's the, that's the whole pool boy and Reuben and that whole outfit.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, the Russian money. Yeah, well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm calling it tenant media money. Oh,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

confused.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I've delved into this now. Oh

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah, numbers, you say, you know, maybe, maybe we just said a little more things. Pro Russian, hello.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Hello, Comrade Dvorak. How are you doing this morning?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Or, I'm sorry, net, so I think so I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

figured out what was happening, what a Canar this was, and I say Canar with a reason. So what happened here is this tenant media is Lauren Chen, or whatever her name is, and her husband, their plan, I figured out their plan. Their plan was to build their own YouTube channel into a powerhouse. Exactly. Yeah, building a powerhouse. And of

course, they did this with the Russian money. They knew exactly what they were doing, and so they figured, well, we'll give, we'll give these guys, you know, this team over here, as far as we know, only

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I should stop you and mention that for people that you to get a background on this, which we're not obviously giving you at this point, go to the last show and listen to it, because we have a rather elaborate discussion of this particular thing. So you may have to listen to,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I think most people kind of know what's going on. Maybe,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

geez, I'm just mentioning that. Okay,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

all right? Well, stop now and go back and listen to the last episode. And how come you missed it anyway. So the plan, the plan was to because, you know, there's a lot of people out there saying, oh, pool board taking just some great memes. They've got, they've got Tim pool instead of a beanie on his head. He's got one of those Russian hats, furry hats. They've got a cat. Yeah, they've got him on, you know,

Putin Nate with a bear, bare chest on the horse. They've got little Tim there in front of him, bare chested on the horse. Really funny meme, yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you're asking for trouble, but it's who me. No, him. Oh, yeah. Well. Or anybody who take, take a bunch of Russian money, do some promotional Russian material. Even though you might not know it, you're asking for trouble. It's just the way it is. I don't

Adam CurryAdam Curry

think he really knew. I mean, of course, all right, I guess it was some Belgian guy. But the plan this, this is what I'm getting to the plan was for them to, you know, license some, some hot content, by the way, no agenda show anybody. They could have licensed it from us, and with that, to build up this channel, which really only had a couple 1000 subscribers, because, you know, little do they understand of how YouTube works. So it was, yeah, you have to fake it. Yeah,

it was really this channel. You have to

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

get some you have to get some kid in there, who knows what he's doing to jack up the numbers. Exactly. You remember 1220, 12.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, Coney, 2012 exactly,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

those numbers are fake.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So, so that failed, but, but, you know, as I look a little bit further into the story this whole thing, it's Canadians who are doing this. This is Canadian disinformation. This is not from Russia. We should be putting sanctions in place against Canada. The Canadian

Unknown

owned social media channel that the US Justice Department alleges as a key part of a Russian influence scheme is now off YouTube. YouTube said tenant media violated its community guidelines. Tenant media was founded by Canadian Lauren Chen and her husband, Liam Donovan. Last year, YouTube is also taking down four separate media channels owned by Chen. Chen is a right wing commentator with posts supporting Donald Trump and siding with Russia over the war

in Ukraine. US Department of Justice, indictment doesn't name Chen or her husband, and they don't face charges. But as the CBC Evan Dyer tells us, tenant is allegedly central to a Kremlin scheme to use millions of dollars to influence American

public opinion and the US presidential election. A US federal indictment says those opinions were bought and paid for by the Kremlin, which funneled ten million in part through roaming millennial, a Quebec company belonging to Canadian influencer Lauren Chen and her husband, Liam Donovan, who then used her Tennessee company tenant media to pay Maga influencers like Dave Rubin, Benny Johnson, Tim pool and Canadian Lauren southern to spread the Kremlin's pro Trump, anti Ukraine messages.

We have not seen an adversary attempt to influence an American election to this degree before this former FBI Director of counterintelligence says the Russian president will be infuriated to see this operation rolled up. The message the US government is sending with these indictments is we see you. We're on to you, and we're going to call this out. The charging documents make it quite clear that they knew

who they were dealing with. So far, though, the FBI has charged only Russians, not the Canadians, and Americans charge

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the Canadians. This is horse crap.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What Russia's did they charge? And how would they know? Well, that's the it's the this is a very dubious situation.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

The Russians they charge are the ones who were sending the money to the Canadians. This is Russia and Canada colluding to interfere with our elections. And I want a wall stop these Canadians

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

this? Well, you're, you're, I think you're correct in the, in the in your being irked by the fact that the Canadians are seemingly getting off scot free when it comes to who's really behind this, whose idea was it? Was it the Canadians to begin with? It sounds like it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It sounds like it to me. And I think there should be sanctions. Throw them off. Swift,

Unknown

let's get rid of him.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Let's throw the cannon off. Swift.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So Tucker is on the road with his show, which is quite entertaining. I might say it's basically the vote for Donald Trump show, but with interesting guests, and he had Vivek, whoever he was, he's man we, I wish we could do it. He's got, like, 1000s of people in these arenas and the just, he just sits down with a guest and like, boom, done. Buy some merch. See you later. What a gig, what a gig. Is good.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's good up to it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm happy. Yeah, no, I'm happy for him. So this comes up on, on this, I guess you call it a show with Vivek, but

Unknown

this idea of Russian election interference in particular, let's trace the history of that in each of the last two elections. Let's go to 2016 the allegation of Russian election interference to support Donald Trump. When you double click on that, look at what was the actual foreign election interference there. It was actually US election interference in the US election through the Steele dossier, but laundered through the narrative of actual Russian interference.

And actually there was a Russian intermediary to perpetuate that attempt at election interference about Trump's Russia collusion hoax. That's in 2016 Right now we get to 2020. Again, domestic election interference is the systematic suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story that didn't happen by Russian

companies. Didn't happen by the Russian government. It happened by us social media companies acting out the direction Canadian deep state actors in the US government that suppressed probably a story whose suppression changed the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. But again, what did they say? They said, No, no, this was Russian disinformation, sure. So now you're seeing a pattern in 2016

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

there's domestic Yes, are you telling me people actually paid money to go into a big auditorium to listen to this?

Unknown

Oh yeah, they love it.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I hear it on TV for free.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

People like live entertainment people,

Unknown

oh, oh, I'm

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

sorry you're categorizing this lecture as entertainment. Okay, so now

Unknown

you're seeing a pattern. In 2016 there's domestic attempts at election interference, but they run it through a Russian smoke screen in 2020 there's domestic election interference, but they run it through a Russian smoke

screen. So this time around, when I see Merrick Garland in the Department of Justice sitting under the Biden administration, suddenly alleging election interference by the Russians, I have any facts other than to say, my radar goes off and says, I want to know where that election interference is actually beginning,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Canada. So these two

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

big laughs I'm not hearing, you know, funny, you

Adam CurryAdam Curry

know, I've watched a couple of these. And the here's the mistake he's making. They do not have good crowd microphones. They did. The crowd is not, well, miked. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

heard Mike, yeah, this is common. It's, it's, it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a shame. It's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

a church. I've seen it. I've seen it. I was in a situation once where the crowd wasn't Mike properly, yeah. And I was always hilarious, by the way, yeah. And then you watch, I watched the thing as they streamed it, and it was, there was no reaction. Look like an idiot up there making jokes with no response whatsoever.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, you look like a dud. I know it's so typical for these because, you know, I used to do concerts that were for, you know, concerts with big audience, and then it would also be broadcast on television back in Holland, and we would always focus the crew. It's not, you know, you're doing stuff, yes, make the house sound good, but the lights are also TV lights, and the sound is also TV sound you have to focus on they missed it on this. Anyway, I want to

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

mention we did have a producer that went to one of these events, RFK Jr showed up as a special guest, and he thought it was entertaining, but it was only filled a 14,000 seat arena with 12 by 1210, to 12,000 so

Adam CurryAdam Curry

only, only 12,000

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, only 12,000 Yeah, with divide 18 to 10 bucks they had, that's what it's good money,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah. And then you get drinks. You get merch.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Parking. Merch is probably where they get a

Adam CurryAdam Curry

piece of parking. You get a piece of the parking. You can have VIP parking. So unfortunately, and there's a second follow clip here, they miss what we saw as obvious, a lot

Unknown

of those allegations that they were somehow helping Trump. I actually got curious. Actually, you could make strong arguments that a lot of these posts or whatever actually weren't helping Trump at all, but the fact that they called that Russian election interference again, just suggests to me that this may be part of a pattern of what we saw in 2016 and 2020 so I don't really buy what they're selling on this. Wow. I think it's just not a super clever group, right? I think that.

I think the problem is they are actually a super clever group. Oh, I think that this is just the beginning of a volley. So this one's not gonna land. I think the public Fool me once. Fool me twice. The reality is, I think there's some gonna be some weird things that happen here in the next two months. I think they're gonna be some depending what happens in the debate. So I'm going to the debate next week in Philadelphia. It's gonna

be Tuesday. Going to be probably a Donald Trump demo, demolition, destruction of the other side. But don't share too much, right? Because I was at the last one, and that's actually, in some ways, was a trap. It was obviously a trap. But they scheduled the earliest ever presidential debate in US history. Why did they do that? It was obvious. It was that they wanted to test Biden as a final trial balloon, and they got a free option because if he did great, great, they turned the

race upside down. But if Biden did as poorly as he did, they swapped him out. It was something unthinkable that became the obvious. So I think if we have another debate smackdown on Tuesday, as I if I was a betting man, I'd predict that's what we're about to have. I also would predict we're going to have some very strange things that happen on the back of that as well. See, I,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I think they missed it. Our analysis was, it was so clear to us, this is about Ukraine, or, as we say, Ukraine, you know it's like. No, I don't think you're getting this right.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, I would list all the analysis of this, of this Russian stuff, and it was all and they left out. They left out a lot. They always left something out. We caught it all. No, you're it was about Ukraine. It had nothing to do

Adam CurryAdam Curry

at all. We can't be saying Ukraine. We have to say well, you just said it, no, but, but no, that's, um, that's like saying Gaza. You know, this is, for some reason, all the in crowd, which is not us, is saying Ukraine, but you just said it. I said Ukraine or Ukraine? And I said Ukraine, yeah, but you got, but we, I was accentuating a point that we don't say these things. Oh,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

okay, well, Ukraine, Ukraine, yeah, yes, that's exactly right, but that's not going to be picked up, because that's not where the narrative is going to head. And while all this is taking place, by the way, I think we should start stop right here. And I think it's time to create a pool, oh, a betting pool on where is because Vivek is obviously an operative. Where is he going to end up? In the in the Trump administration? Ambassador, he's going to get a job. Ambassador, he's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

getting an ambassadorship to India. You think just ship him off.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

That's probably the best thing to do. Great

Adam CurryAdam Curry

job. Yeah, you need to ship them off to one of the bricks countries. So India would be perfect. Let them go sit there. I think that'd be good. Yeah, and you can, yeah. I think, I think that's where I put my money in the pool India ambassadorship. Good to go. So meanwhile, while everyone is running around talking about Russian disinformation that came from Canada, all the military industrial complex came together in Ramstein, the Ramstein Air Base.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's a Dirac group, isn't it? Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah. It's also an army base in Germany. And everybody was there, and all the money was there. Everyone was good to go, and we brought a big check. The

Unknown

Arrival appeared awkward, even if it was among friends. Vladimir Zelinsky arriving at a meeting of defense ministers from Allied countries, including the US, UK and hosts Germany. He, like his country, soldiers once on a mission to ensure Ukraine's partners were following through on promises to help it win its war with Russia a shortage of missiles and cooperation. This applies even to our territory, which is occupied by Russia, including

Crimea. We think it is wrong that there are such steps we need to have this long range capability, not only on the occupied territory of Ukraine, but also under Russia. Zelinsky is frustrated that allies still haven't permitted Kyiv to hit Russia inside its own borders using Western long range missiles. He believes this is a key way to put pressure on

Moscow to end its two and a half year war on Ukraine. But speaking after the meeting US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, appear to indicate that Washington did not believe long range capabilities would turn the tide of the war. We had this discussion about about other capabilities, and each time we point out that it's not just one thing, it's a combination of capabilities and how you integrate those capabilities to achieve objectives.

Early on Friday, the US said it would be providing an additional $250 million in assistance, while the UK and Germany also said they were providing equipment, including short range missiles and how it says Ukraine says it desperately needs to bolster its defenses. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

of course, we're not going to give him long range weapons, because that could potentially could do one of two things. Could start world war three, minor issue, but it would possibly end something, and they don't want that. Keep burning stuff on that border, keep blowing stuff up, be doing a good job. And who else was there. Who else was in in Ramstein, doing, I swear to God, doing Instagram reels with Zelensky. Lindsey Graham,

Unknown

I'm here with President Zelensky. I am such a admirer of what you and your country have done. What kind of stop the Russians so we don't have to fight them. They don't want any American troops.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You're going to stop the Russians so we don't have to fight them. You dope.

Unknown

Trying to stop the Russians so we don't have to fight them. They don't want any American troops. They just need the weapons to free their country. Yeah, yeah. We

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't want American troops on the ground kill your own people.

Unknown

Terrible invasion that they're sitting on.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

So funny. Oh, it gets better. It

Adam CurryAdam Curry

gets better. He does a classic here, it gets better.

Unknown

Terrible invasion. They're sitting on trillion dollars worth of minerals that could be good to our economy, helping our friends in Ukraine. We can win this later. Help. Yes, we need, and we have already the biggest help. Is the support of American people and support of our friends. Thanks to Lindsey and his colleagues, to congressmen and centers from the United States, thanks for this support, bipartisan support. Thank you so much. Peace is coming. Yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

peace is coming right after we so I don't know if Zelensky is he must be in on the game, because no way is he gonna get any of the $26 trillion worth of minerals that are in Ukraine's land. No way you said it again. I'm doing on purpose now. And this is this. Lindsey Graham has been saying this, but no one ever calls him out on it or says this is the real reason for this war. They're

Unknown

sitting on 10 to $12 trillion of critical minerals in Ukraine. They could be the richest country in all of Europe. I don't want to give that money and those assets to Putin to share with China or to Ukraine. If we help Ukraine now, they can become the best business partner we ever dreamed of. Sign here that 10 to $12 trillion of critical mineral assets could be used by Ukraine and the West, not given to Putin and China. This is a very big deal how Ukraine ends. Let's

help them win a war we can't afford to lose. Let's find a solution to this war. But they're sitting on a gold mine,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, and this was months ago that he said this. So it's like this, so obvious what is going on. They've already given away all of the the bread basket of Europe to the big, you know, Monsanto and Cargill, and not Montana Cargill, and who are the other guys who did the big, uh, big, AG, Tyson. Probably think Tyson, so Tyson's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

on this deal well, but yeah, I'd rather have the Russians. I hit the you know, we're not getting paid Russian money, but I'm going to say it not yet. You're working on it. I can hear you. I see what the Russians should have them, let them do it, because the one thing I've noticed about them is they're not gougers. When they're given all the gas and they're pumping it all into Europe, and everyone said all the way to go, we're gonna depend in on it, they're not.

They're never gouged anybody. They just let they just let it. They take a look at it, take a small profit, and then they dump it out there. And, you know, the gougers are, are looking for that, that the wheat fields, and the gougers are looking for the minerals

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the gougers are starving Africans with, with the wheat and the grain, yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that is, that is the negative side of capitalism. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this brings me to a boots on the ground from one of our producers in Russia who says, I love your show. I'm an American currently studying

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

American in Russia. Yes, we need to get Russians. You know, I want to stop right here and mention that people that are listening to show that are in I know it's, I know in Spain, they listen to the show. And I visit with a few of them once, and they said, Well, the great thing about the show is you guys speak clearly, and it's good for us to practice our English. All world listeners out there should pass it along to other people that are in the community, Russia and elsewhere,

listen to this show so you can practice your English. And

Adam CurryAdam Curry

we have transcripts in the modern podcast app so you can read along and learn unbelievable and learn and learn how to spell Dvorak,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

John. See, John, see,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

love your show on American currently studying in Russia because it's cheap. Just wanted to tell you that I've observed what I have observed here in Russia regarding the Russia, Russo Ukrainian war, I think, and do believe, that there will never be a demilitarized zone in Russia, at least maybe inside of Ukraine, the Kursk region will not be part of a demilitarized zone. John touched on something I think is true. In 1943 the Germans attacked the Kursk

salient and set up and to set up a trap. I think the Russians set the same trap in the Kursk Region this time, as well as there was nothing but green. This is a student. There's nothing but green conscript guarding the border. A little like October 7. Ah, the total number of troops crossing the border at first was 1000 once they got inside Russia, the Ukrainians put another 11,000 troops into the region. As of now, the casualty numbers for the Ukrainians could be as high

as 6000 out of a total of 12,000 initial troop count. But of course, you know that's not reported. Also, the Ukrainians not gambled and lost. Anybody report facts. Also, the Ukrainians gambled and lost that Russia would pull the troops from the entire eastern front to stop this incursion, which they didn't. Ukrainians had to redeploy some of their forces from Kursk to pro Kursk just to slow down the Russian advance. John, you had a clip from YouTube channel, military

summary channel, I know you two are busy and blah, blah. Blah. Finally, just let the dames knights and fellow producers know that Russians are really friendly, caring, and they have a great sense of dark humor. They hold hands and hug, that's for sure. They hold hands and hug while drinking overpriced coffee, talking about how crappy their pop music is. And did you see that latest internet meme? They could be Americans of the eastern hemisphere, which is maybe why our governments are at

each other's throats sometimes. Also, I can still get Coke and Pepsi here. McDonald's and KFC just renamed themselves to Tasty period and rustics. Well, tasty period.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Nicey period. What

Adam CurryAdam Curry

kind, what kind of franchise marketing is that?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh no, but it doesn't sound right, while Burger

Adam CurryAdam Curry

King hasn't even taken down their signs and are still open for business in my city's biggest Molly even found a can of a and W Root Beer from America. How do I know it's from America? Ingredients in English, and second ingredient was high fructose corn syrup. Well, how about that? That should be isn't that illegal? Aren't they? Aren't they breaking sanctions by still operating in Russia?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, they use middlemen in some sort of a legal way. Let's face it, there's a work it's called a workaround. And one of the things Americans are good at is workarounds. We're good at that. You find them, we work them out, reach around, that's different. We're good. We're always mixing these things. I'm

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sorry. I'm sorry. No

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

wonder you keep screwing up.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So there was a so now we have a report, I think France 24 it was maybe Deutsche villa, and they bring in a military industrial complex shield, which the whole thing was all mic, Ukraine

Unknown

says it is concerned by foreign media reports that Iran has delivered short range ballistic missiles to Russia. Moscow, they hear the Iran meme coming in now stepped up missile and drone attacks in recent days, stretching Ukraine's air defenses. Kief and its allies have previously accused Iran of supplying ahead drones to Russia, but Iran denies playing, supplying any weapons used to attack Ukraine.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Let's bring in the shell well. So the story is, What? What? What?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What? Why are they making this disassertion? What? What difference does it make? Well, here

Adam CurryAdam Curry

comes the the shield to tell us why,

Unknown

and we are now joined by Mark. Can see in a former colonel in the US military and now the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, Colonel, Russia, need Iranian missiles. Does it not have enough of its own? Well, it does not have enough on its on its own. It has been producing ballistic missiles all along, often with parts smuggled in

from global sources. But those haven't been enough to accomplish the ends that they're trying to accomplish, for example, attacking Ukrainian infrastructure, electricity, for example. So they brought in ballistic missiles from North Korea, and now they're proposing to bring in the ballistic missiles from Iran. It's important to keep in mind that Iran has been supplying Russia with missiles all along. 136 is that we just heard about. Iran has been sending for about a

year. And in fact, they've set up a plant in the in Russia to produce these missiles, these kamikaze drones, the ballistic missiles, is a step up in support, but not fundamentally a change in policy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, so they're just bringing Iran into it for whatever reason. We can kind of guess why. And if you heard at the beginning of the well, of course, they want war with Iran, anything more military industrial complex, finance?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, there's a bit of that, but it this whole story that makes no logical sense. One thing they claim is basically, the Russians are losers. They can't even make their own damn missiles. Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

where does it come from? At the beginning of the report you heard, according to reports? Well, where did it come from? It came from the chiefs of MI six and CIA themselves, who appeared at a Financial Times conference just before the Ramstein conference,

Unknown

stepping out from the shadows for the first time together a united front in an era of division and danger, such as claims that Iran has supplied Russia with ballistic missiles for its war in Ukraine. Should Iran ship ballistic missiles of whatever kind, close range or other kinds, it would be a dramatic escalation of the nature of that Defense Partnership. No confirmation that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is a key

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

wait. So these are good clips, by the way. Thank you. The assertion there's interesting cross purposes of. Assertions. The first one was that, oh no, they're not doing anything, but they're going to start doing it. Yeah. Oh yeah. Which is which we've known since day one, that they've been and we've seen pictures of the missiles. I've written, I I've

shown, yes, pictures of the factories in the newsletter. Six months ago, took longer, maybe, of the factory in Iran, exactly the model numbers and everything that were for all these drones. We have all the data, all the information that missile lands and doesn't blow up, and they can see, they take pictures of it and put those in the newsletter. It's all been documented, but now, all of a sudden, they haven't really been doing any of that, but they're going to start to Are you

kidding me? They think that we're that stupid.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well please bear in mind, for the first time ever in public together, it's the chief of the CIA burns and the chief of MI six more who are telling us this. So now we can believe it.

Unknown

Of the nature of that Defense Partnership. No confirmation, but Russia's invasion of Ukraine is a key focus for the spike East. They applaud a recent incursion by keys in the opposite direction, with Ukrainian troops snatching parts of Russian land. It's typically audacious and bold on the part of the Ukrainians, oh, so bold, on the part of the Ukrainian, audacious, to try and change the game in the way. And I think they have

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes, yes, you want to say something. No, I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was just saying, I was just listening to the man talk about

Unknown

my Shrek, to try and change the game in the way. And I think they have, to a degree, changed the narrative around us. The Kursk offensive is a significant tactical achievement boost and Ukrainian morale. It exposed some of the vulnerabilities of Putin's Russia and of his military. Despite the blow, Vladimir Putin is still deemed to be looking strong for now, I don't see any evidence today that Putin's grip on power is is weakening. He, he does one thing really well, and that's repress

people at home. Yeah, I mean, I just don't ever confuse a tight grip with a stable grip. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

he all he does is oppress people at home with, I don't know, Burger King, KFC, McDonald's, a and W Root Beer, Pepsi's. And then what does he actually come out and say

Unknown

an endorsement made in jest speaking as a guest at a forum in East Russia, Vladimir Putin candidly suggested that Kamala Harris was his preferred candidate for November's US presidential election. She has such an expressive and infectious laugh, it shows she's doing well. I mean, Trump, he's imposed more restrictions and sanctions on Russia than any President has ever imposed before. And if Mrs. Harris is doing well, maybe she'll refrain from doing something like that.

The comments were met with laughter by the audience, adding to the modern theme of the remarks a common trend whenever Putin has talked on social issues in the United States, the Russian president had earlier this year backed outgoing President Joe Biden over Trump claiming he was more predictable. Trump for his path, said he was left feeling split over Putin's latest comments. I don't know exactly what to say about that. I don't know if I'm insulted or he did me a favor.

The US National Security Council, meanwhile, called on Putin to stop talking about American elections and to stop interfering with them. Stop

Adam CurryAdam Curry

talking about us.

Unknown

This is great. It's like he's trolling while he totally

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

while he is picked up a clue. Yeah, he is trolling. In fact, I like to have somebody else translate what he said, Because I skeptical. I bet this clip came out some time back and then was skeptical about it's a translation. Well, that's a good point, although this translation, with the one I heard was a woman translator, and this one was a male so this is slightly different. Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the reason I picked this one is, is France 24 and they had a much more coherent translate. The translation was the same as the the Russian translator, the clip that we all and

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the thing, the thing that made me suspicious about the clip was that when he talked about camel's infectious laugh, or basically, or cackling, yeah, the audience cracked up as as if they'd heard it. And I don't know why they would. Well, they've heard her life. Why would they have heard

Camela cackling? Why would they have heard any of it? It's really, it's, it's like some minor, uh, little, uh piccadillo That saves some politician in Portugal might have, and if you mentioned to an American audience, they'd all, they'd all laugh about it when we would have no clue. You just didn't make any sense to me that they'd heard her laugh.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Come on. They're serious,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that a Russian national would have ever heard anything Kamala Harris ever said.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

My I dispute that. I think that the Russians are all over listening to what's going on with us. Why not?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I just don't see it. I don't see one thing, she's never said anything important.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I mean, that's the only thing, listen, that's the only thing she's known for is that laugh.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, to us the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

world over, the Dutch are talking about it. I see it in the Dutch press. So, I mean, not quite Russia, but not far off. So I don't know. We'll look for it. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

just said it made me skeptical. I mean, I didn't know that the Dutch were all aware of the stupid laugh, but

Adam CurryAdam Curry

everyone's aware of the stupid laugh.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Dispute that. Now you use the word dispute, so I used it back. You

Adam CurryAdam Curry

can dispute it all you want. Now, will they know that she, all of a sudden, starts talking Southern and black? No, no, that I that I think they wouldn't know until now without

There you go see the Russians. Didn't know about that. They do now.

Unknown

Hello, Russia.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah. Well, the one or two Russians that listen to this show. They got to get more people listening.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes, I agree. Hit some Russians in the mouth. Not, not a call for violence. Yeah, okay, well, I've opened the show. Well,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I do have my all my totality of Ukraine. Eclipse is from PBS. It's a 22 second clip was summarized. What was you didn't even touch upon, but it did summarize the Ukraine war for the last week, and you might as well play it. In

Unknown

Ukraine, Russian drone attacks are getting dangerously close to the country's capital. Ukraine's Air Force said that across the country, overnight, it shot down nearly 60 long range drones, debris and shrapnel fell on the streets in Kyiv, some of it narrowly missing the country's parliament building. President Volodymyr Zelensky is in Italy. Today. He's meeting with European leaders to try to shore up support and ask for more

Adam CurryAdam Curry

aid. Money. Money, money. Looking for money. Money, money. Come on, man, give me some money. Yeah.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Hey, guys gotta go,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, he's perfect. He's, I mean, he's, he's perfect for the whole, gotta go. He's perfect for the whole, the whole system.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I'm sick of the system being exploited. That's our money. It's your money, my money. Everyone that listens to this show, it's their money. Oh, this. They're just stealing money. No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I feel your, your dismay. I'm just pointing out the obvious. The guy's not going to go he's fantastic. Look, when, when we send another two $50 million or if we're, if we make decisions about long range missiles, why is it only Lloyd Austin that talks about, where's our president? Isn't he the one to get it out? Isn't he the one that should be telling us what we're doing? No, they just send over generals and then contractors, and they all sit in at a long desk, and Zelensky

then, oh yeah, good man, yeah. Keep it going, brother. Yeah. We want more stuff.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, you do have another I have another clip of play. This is the drone. It says, Don't he have this is, this is the counter clip. This is a longer clip. NPR does a 33

Adam CurryAdam Curry

seconds. Oh, nice. Here we go.

Unknown

Russia continued to bomb Ukraine today. Strike. Near the parliament in the country's capital, Kyiv, during the early hours, the country's Air Force said nearly 70 drones were used, and most were shot down with air defenses. No deaths were reported in the capital, but elsewhere in Sumy, Kharkiv, Kherson and Dnipro, local officials say Russian attacks

injured or killed at least four people. This as funeral services were held for victims of an earlier Russian attack on Poltava that killed more than 50 people and injured hundreds.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You see that no mention of money. There

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no but the horrible. The reason why it's a 33 second report is because even NPR knows no one in America cares anymore about this. We've we're immune. We're like,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I agree. I agree with that. So they're

Adam CurryAdam Curry

trying to keep their audience. So PBS, so

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

they gotta do more anti Trump stuff and stuff about these wars or anything.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes, that's what you need do more. You know, the I didn't clip any of it, but the latest trend in and I heard this on on the media from NPR, the trend is to say we're not reporting right on Trump. We're translating his incoherent blather because he's old, he's old and he can't senile and senile, and so we're translating it. We should be playing and saying exactly what he said, because no one understands it. He's, I mean, it's all this is the new move is to make you got

to make Trump sound stupid. Well, the problem is that they don't have enough air time, because his what he calls the weave. It takes too long. It takes way too long for him to, you know, to get to a point.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

And, oh, it takes forever. It's, that's his whole thing, is he, he's just a audience hog, the only way to describe it, yes, he goes up there and yaks, yaks, yaks, yes, and he, and he tries to do material. I had a clip here that actually discusses this.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, this is the trend, so I'm glad, I'm glad that you're on it, because I didn't get anything.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Here's nb. This says NPR. Put Emma seven in this randomly ripping Trump on his tariffs and some others. This just a random NPR rip

Adam CurryAdam Curry

man, I wish I could find it. You confuse me with M,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

P R, M, as in, Mary looking at m, O,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

M, P R, yes, I got you.

Unknown

Former President Donald Trump spoke at a rally in mosney, Wisconsin this afternoon, a speech that went on for more than an hour and a half the rally, no state push both campaigns are doing with less than two months until Election Day and pierce Daniel Curtis Leben reports, Trump made many of his usual arguments, like railing against the quote fake news and casting undocumented immigrants as dangerous. See, this

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is what they want. They Hey, hey, you can't do that anymore. You have to verbatim report what he said, because he's he has cognitive issues. He also repeats.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

He would stop before he finish that or that thought. The way they begin the report is, though he went on for an hour and a half like he's a rambling old man, as if he's never He does 145 once in a while. Yeah, an hour and a half in the modern era is short,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

and you wonder why people pay money to go see Tucker and Vivek. They go, they they love, people love the live show. Can't afford Oasis tickets, so you might as well go to either the free Trump show, which is

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

not you mentioned it. What is a Taylor Swift ticket cost? Oh, if you can get one, I've been just like 500 bucks and up. I've been hitting

Adam CurryAdam Curry

refresh for hours. Also repeatedly promoted tariffs.

Unknown

We will charge other countries when their product is sent into our country. And why shouldn't we? That's exactly what they do. That's what that's what made China strong. Foreign countries do not pay tariffs. Businesses importing goods to the US do tariffs can be attempts to protect domestic industry, but economists say many of tariffs costs are passed on to us, consumers. As President Trump imposed tariffs on hundreds of billions of dollars of Chinese goods.

President Joe Biden kept tariffs on Chinese goods in place. Danielle kurtzweb, NPR news now.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Okay, this is an interesting report, because they go on to condemn Him for tariffs, yeah, but Biden did it casually, yeah, casually just kind of mentioned, just to balance the report. I'm not sure why they even did it. Well, they mentioned that

Unknown

go ahead. Well, I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

thought you had something to say there.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No go ahead.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I would do so what they did was they set it up with all this guy's terrible. Oh, by the way, Biden did the same thing. They only did that because it because they would be condemned by the media watchers for not saying, hey, wait a minute. Why is it so bad when Trump does it, but it's okay when Biden does it, which is really what the combat so they. Lip it in at the end, as though you won't notice. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's very poor. So I've seen a couple things that make me question. Well, I mean, if you look at the headlines today, neck and neck, it's very close, within the margin of error. It's a horse race, everybody. Oh, it's crazy. It's so close, so close. I don't know if they're trying to pull Trump's numbers up a little bit or I don't know, yes, I don't know what PBS was thinking with this. This is so instead of playing crazy Trump, let's play something from the crazy Trump voters. And Are they crazy?

Unknown

I spoke to another Trump supporter, woman who really spout

Adam CurryAdam Curry

why don't they say voters? They always say supporters. You don't notice that. So that's a good I'll have to start looking for that call about they say fans or supporters, or anyway,

Unknown

I spoke to another Trump supporter, woman who really spouted a series of conspiracy theories. She was someone being trained for this Trump force 47 potentially, she was in that she's gonna be one of those people trying to persuade she was in that meeting. I didn't stay for the actual training, but she was there for that event.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

And hold on, Trump

Adam CurryAdam Curry

force 47

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I didn't stay for the actual Wait. Why didn't she stay? Because it

Adam CurryAdam Curry

would, it would rot her brain, and she'd become a Trump supporter. She didn't want the programming. I don't know. This is Trump force. If

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you're reporting on something, no, even if you didn't stay, why would you say that? It seems to me that you, especially if you're NPR or PBS, whatever, this is same thing. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

think this was these are on YouTube. These are like, Zoom calls. You can sign up to become part of Trump force 40 Okay, okay, yes, I like it a lot. Actually, I like the whole idea of Trump force 47

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, okay, well, you can just keep playing force 47

Unknown

I didn't stay for the actual training, but she was there for that event, and she told me, you know, I believe Joe Biden died three years ago, you know, I told her, you know, that sounds like a

Adam CurryAdam Curry

conspiracy theory. Well, Boyd, she countered. She said, Oh no, that's a conspiracy theory. You know that, right? And I told

Unknown

her, you know, that sounds like a conspiracy theory, you know, that's a stereotype against Trump voters. And she said, I know that. But again, this is true. So I talked to the first woman, suburban woman, I Trump voter, said, you know, these are the other supporters of Donald Trump. These are the same people in your party supporting him. I just said, you know, I think that's just crazy, you know. So they're, they're

really on different pages. They're both behind Donald Trump, but they, neither one, are quite seeing the full picture of his support and what he stands for to everyone who supports him. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what I supports him. What I like about this is they're saying there's such a wide array of people who are all in on Trump, they're baffled by it. Yes, they're baffled, exactly like the crazy ones. And the other ones say, Okay, well, she's crazy, but it's all right. They cannot fathom that. People just want an agenda, or, you know, they want a platform, or they want something, anything, but what we have, they can't lockstep

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is what this is, the way they are. And the thing that still fascinates me to go back to it, this was agenda with Trump 47 I guess, force, whatever it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

called, Trump force 47

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Trump force 47 training, and you had the opportunity to go to get in on it as a reporter. And you you could report on exactly what the training was and how it works. What kind of a Reporter Are

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you? There's and I'm seeing all kind

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

of asking you, I mean just gently, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

hear you. I hear you that it's PBS reporter, is what she is.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Would you like to come to our conspiracy theory meeting? I know we don't usually let the press in, but if you come in, it's okay. It'll be okay for you to come in and spy on us. No problem. And you don't do it. I hereby invite. Are you nuts?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I hereby invite any PBS reporter to come to my vape shop meetings, because you'd love them. You'd love to hear the ranchers receivable, I know. So now it's interesting how we kind of switched up beats out just looking at the titles of your clips. So you brought in the Christian nationalism last time, and CBS and that was, I think, NPR CBS did a series, you

know, the little report. And it sounded to me like they're actually trying to get the non voting evangelicals out to vote, which makes no sense, because that's the whole, you know, as we've discussed. The whole problem is that the evangelicals, the Christians, the Christian nationalists, they don't vote. So they do a story where they say, Hey, these guys don't vote

Unknown

under a massive circus tent in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Lance wall now is the ringleader preaching Christian nationalism and political activism to. A rapturous following. Rapturous,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a rapture, rapturous. I missed that the first time I heard it, a rapturous following. Unless you learn how to mobilize and how to move in at

Unknown

a local level, then you're letting the devil dominate your culture, while now 68 is a business consultant, self proclaimed Prophet and firebrand influencer in the growing charismatic Christian movement. Oh, wow.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What I want that on my business card. Fire brand.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Just put it on fire brand. Fire brand.

Unknown

He views Trump as a once in 1000 years figure, flawed yet divinely chosen to navigate chaotic times. I caught that idea in 2015 when I first met Trump, and I got a lot of pushback after he got elected, because they were searching around for how, why did the How could the Evangelicals justify voting for some, you know, barbaric character like Trump and they're hypocrites that they are well now admits that Trump twice divorced and roundly accused of other moral failings

does not align with traditional evangelical expectations. I said, Listen, give the guy some time. He doesn't know who we are, but his values resonate with our community. God's raising up an outsider, while now headlines the so called courage tour, a religious road show that aims to mobilize religious conservatives to vote and serve as election workers in key counties.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So that's just the setup. But then we get closer into it, and I really think

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

CBS so the reporter is Major Garrett. Yes, that's who that is. And he is kind of on the fence. He used to be his fox, and he's always been on the fence with Trump, because Trump because Trump is calling out as a douchebag

Adam CurryAdam Curry

more than one Good point, good point. So we should keep that in mind. Well, it doesn't matter. It still has to go through the CIA broadcast systems or the editors. Yeah, and

Unknown

Trump evangelicals don't see an abrasive, thrice married billionaire. They do see an anti establishment leader, strong on abortion, gender issues and Israel. I want people to vote because he stands for something. Jackie Brokaw lives in Wisconsin and attended the courage to her with her brother.

The number of Christians that are in this area, if they would vote, they could swing this county, which would probably swing the rest of the state we are seeing here today is the most targeted and tactical voter mobilization effort done by Christian nationalists ever. Matthew Taylor has written extensively about this new form of religious activism that fuses political outcomes with divine intervention. What is the political import possibly, in

the 2024 election of events like this. Well, if Trump wins, then that becomes a part of the impetus that Donald Trump can say, I don't just have a democratic mandate. I have a divine mandate to change the country in accordance with the biblical values that these folks claim to have.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, Trump's gonna be, yeah, that's right, God. God did it for me. And here comes the final, the final pitch, I think, from Major Garrett.

Unknown

January 6 was not an insurrection, it was an election fraud intervention. 2020, election denialism is core to wall now's world view, and the terminology at his revivals is apocalyptic. It's not us that's dangerous. It's them describing a spiritual battle between pious believers and demons who speak through Democrats or liberals. Yes, it's not just the person, spiritual force, demonic or demonic? Yeah, they can

influence people with bodies. He believes hyper focused Christian political energy can overcome those perceived obstacles, the tendency to just look at elections, pray about them, eat popcorn, watch the result and then go to bed, is over. Christians as believers probably should be engaged in this process of shaping culture far more aggressively and intentionally from now on, as for their impact on the election, God only knows, major carrot in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So, so that is he literally is, is helping the message. It's better than maybe

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

again, the CIA we have talked about this on and off and on and off, which is it possible they really want Trump to win, yeah, and the whole thing is just a smoke screen for, like, trying to get Trump to win somehow.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, this report felt like it, and I can tell you that churches around like it too. Churches around America are speaking like this. I don't know if you want to call them Christian nationalism, nationalists or extremists, but that that there's a, there's a big movement out there trying to do exactly this, and CBS just helped. Very interesting. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Anderson Cooper brought out a whopper of lies. We begin

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

tonight with the former president, campaign politics, his legal troubles and lies. He finished his day in Charlotte, North Carolina, where the Fraternal Order of. Police endorsed him, and he had this to say about a violent attack on Nancy Pelosi husband.

Unknown

You know that Nancy Pelosi is a big wall wrapped around her house. Of course, it didn't help too much with the problem she

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

had. That is that's the former president speaking to members of law enforcement making light the first time I should point out of the violent attack against Paul Pelosi, a home invader, beat Mr. Pelosi with a sledgehammer and fractured his skull. What sledgehammer? Sledgehammer we saw the video. He's holding a regular claw hammer,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sledgehammer. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

love we all saw it

Adam CurryAdam Curry

like, okay, pooper, a sledgehammer, no less. Gotcha. Hey, by the way, the Fraternal Order of Police. Are those the guys that always call me asking for money.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Sometimes they call. I mean, nowadays they have this new guy. They have a new with with the big, heavy voice. Hey, the guy with the big voice, which is a AI voice, oh, and he's, it's an AI character, and which is easy to hang up on, because you don't have to make an excuse.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, you're right. And yes, you're right. It is an AI.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's an AI guy says, Hi, how you doing? You know, this is a nightclub. Don't hang up because, oh and he laughs about something, and he but he has a voice. He has that beautiful voice.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

This is Sergeant Pete from the Fraternal Order of Police. Are you interested in in protecting police? It's, yeah, he's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

got this guy's got a great voice, yeah. And it's, it comes up, I get that call about once every couple months. Yeah, a couple of months, I get it too. And it's the same guy, it's the same voice, and now it's an AI. So it's not it's and it interacts. It's interactive AI, so you can say something to it, except Are you an AI voice? And then you hear the thing going to a stall as it tries to dredge up an

answer to that. Or they got to fix this. Because if you're gonna do that, they gotta come up with a quicker response, yeah. Because every time you call it out as a robot or AI, it goes into a long loop, and then it comes back with, oh, no, I'm not AI. I'm a real person. It's terrible. It is terrible. And it's so easy to spot and very easy to hang out.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm not a I, yeah, so I want to call out the the press on all sides about this bull crap Dick Cheney endorsement. You think that Dick Cheney was out there with his heart in his in his shoulder bag, which he has, he has that battery powered thing that keeps his heart going. If he still Yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

he's got, yeah, he has a heart. But Amazing how long this guy can live.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But it wasn't Dick Cheney. He didn't come out and say that. Oh, this happened in Texas at the what was this? The Texas Tribune interview of his daughter,

Unknown

Dick Cheney. Your father, a beloved figure among Democrats for many, many years. Do you if you know who he will be supporting or who he'll be voting for? Do you care to share with us who he might be voting for Dick Cheney will be voting for Kamala Harris.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That's the extent of the so called Dick Cheney endorsement. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

thought that. I thought there was a press release that came out from Dick Cheney saying he would support Kamala. Well, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

haven't seen it. I've only, I've only seen headlines

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

wheat maybe, yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you're on. People are calling for an intervention of your your your ex, your ex usage. They're very concerned.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

As long as my numbers go up, and they have been going up, I'm keeping it up. This is good for the show.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So, you know, we

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

all come on there's funny stuff in there.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, there is funny stuff. We're just worried that you're too caught up in it. People love you, John, that's why, no, just want to make sure you're okay. Blink twice.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

So we handle it. We anyway.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So we finished the whole series of Veep with Julia Louis Dreyfus, and I've been looking at all these parallels with Kamala Harris, and there was a, there was, near the end, she's doing this negotiation with the Chinese, and it turns out the campaign manager she hired is, you know, is working for the Chinese, and they kill her ex husband. And so this throughout the thread of the entire, you know, back end of

the series, her PR guy, stupid Mike, who is stupid. He's trying to adopt a kid from China, and they're at Camp David, when she becomes she's temporarily president, and she pisses off the Chinese. And then all of a sudden, you know, the Chinese say, Oh, we've now stopped all adopt. Options of children from China, and then this which, well, this story pops

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Today,

Unknown

China says it is ending most foreign adoptions of Chinese children. The announcement puts hundreds of American and other foreign families with pending application, their adoptions in limbo. The only exceptions would be for foreigners adopting the children or stepchildren of blood relatives in China. Since the early 90s, the country has sent 10s of 1000s of adoptees overseas, with about half

arriving in the US. For decades, China only allowed couples to have one child, forcing many families to put their children up for adoption, but to slow down a falling birth rate, the government reverse policy?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, I don't think so. I think that this is a couple of days ago, by the way, yeah, I know it's retaliation today, huh? Yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

okay, I'm just getting the timeline Correct. Thank

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you. It's retaliation. They don't want whatever Carmel is doing with China. They don't like it, which could be,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

by the way, you you kind of, I think you may be light hearted when you say that, but I two people are trying to adopt kids. You might be right. Well, it really upsets. I mean, people who are into adopting kids because, for one reason or another, because they can't have kids they have to adopt. Are they like kids? No, seriously, yeah, they will. This is cutting off one a stream of possible kids that they can raise

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a stream of kids. Well, it could be because of the export controls that were announced. You heard about this? I'm not sure. Well, it's from NTD. So you know, when it's about China, it must be true. Must be true, and it also hits on another one of my favorite topics.

Unknown

Washington has a new plan for stemming the flow of advanced microchips to Beijing. The Commerce Department came out with new rules Thursday. From now on, companies looking to export technology and tools related to quantum computing have to apply for export licenses

Adam CurryAdam Curry

quantum computing. You don't say, Are we pivoting?

Unknown

The new restrictions are meant to prevent Beijing from using that technology to advance its own military semiconductors are critical to military power as they're required for the most advanced weapons and equipment. The guidelines didn't name China, but they expand similar restrictions that the US previously put in place. The

rules are effective immediately. The expert controls cover a number of things, quantum computing, items, advanced tools for making microchips and a piece of key technology used in chips for supercomputers. Samsung has started using this technology to make one of the globe's most advanced chips, though, there are exemptions, friendly countries like Japan already have their own export controls, so entities in those countries are not subject to the new US export controls.

Washington's new action comes after China found new ways to get around restrictions

Adam CurryAdam Curry

so quantum computing no longer AI, which I found interesting. Now that NVIDIA is crashing, I know it's up 100% over year over year, but still, it's bringing down the whole market. And they've coerced, they've coerced the Dutch into this, like, Hey, you ASML Dutch guys, you're not going to export, right? Because, you know, quantum computing is important for advanced weaponry. The US

Unknown

previously banned Chinese companies from getting their hands on certain powerful AI chips, but some Chinese firms have been able to utilize computing power generated from these chips with a workaround by using us cloud computing companies like Amazon, web services, the Commerce Department said it expects to see similar export restrictions from friendly countries. The Netherlands is following

Washington's footsteps. The country is home to the world's leading supply of microchip producing equipment, ASML, the gear allows companies to mass produce advanced chips. On Friday, the Dutch government said it would expand export licensing requirements for some of ASML chip making equipment. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that's right. Shut up. Duchies do what we say. I just thought it was interesting that you know, you you ban the supply of kids from China right around the same time that you put export restrictions on quantum computing chips. Is quantum computing really one chip. All I see is, nobody knows what it is, obviously these spaceship things that you see, Google quantum wish it was one chip that worked, yeah, of course it's not. Yeah. That worked, exactly the work

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that that worked. The word worked, yeah is the key here. I'd love to know we've been bullshitted into thinking it does well, I'm extremely scared. I mean, you may be skeptical by AI, totally the quantum computing is a non starter. Just

Adam CurryAdam Curry

as skeptical of of of quantum as I am of AI, my question is, who I. These are first. Who is making these so called Quantum chips? What company?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I have no idea. They've kind of hinted Samsung's got something to do with this, although that same assertion about Samsung could apply to AI chips the way they said, it was vague. It's vague.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm just going to stick with the technology for a moment. We have a lot of dudes named Ben out there and dudettes named Bernadette, who maintain many systems of the windows

variety. This goes back to the CrowdStrike bug that brought down the entire world for a little bit, stopped hospitals from operating, stopped airlines from flying, except for Southwest the team over at the pirate software podcast had an interesting deconstruction, which I'd like to know if you saw this happen, and you can probably go back in the logs and check within your own IT infrastructure. So the interesting

Unknown

thing that I'm kind of waiting on right now is you have windows and you have CrowdStrike right initially, I believe that CrowdStrike is at fault for this, and the reason why is because CrowdStrike pushed an update and then everything broke in Windows because this update was in place only for CrowdStrike related machines. But it's not that simple. Windows pushed an update and CrowdStrike pushed an update and everything was fine, and apparently Windows has then

pushed another update and then everything broke. Now, the interesting part about this is that the machines were fine initially under this configuration, and Windows changing that configuration caused this problem to occur, which then leads into a really weird legal territory, which is, Whose fault is this? Is it Windows fault because they changed that configuration? Should they have changed that

configuration? Or is it crowdstrikes fault because it caused the system to die under that configuration that wasn't the initial one that they pushed that update on? Usually inside of the tech space, we would blame the individualized program, not the operating system. The operating system would not be at fault here, but legally speaking, we don't know.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So I thought this was fascinating. I It happened on a Friday, which is not typical for a Windows Update. No,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

they always happen on Tuesdays. And the thing is, I I'm finding peculiar that he keeps saying Windows instead of

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Microsoft. Yeah, I didn't like that either. But Windows is not a company, but that, that could just be semantics. So what he's saying is that Windows pushed an update, CrowdStrike pushed an update, and everything was fine, but then Windows pushing up, and remember, we had that Azure outage, which was really odd. We don't quite understand the timing of that, which you would think is Windows machines. Who knows? It's probably all running Linux. Remember Hotmail was running on Linux. Remember

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that Microsoft bought and it's, oh, my God, we got to recode the whole thing.

Unknown

Got to put it on NT.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So I'd like to know our dude's name, Ben out there. Let me know if you have any evidence that that happens, because that would change some potential liability or not. It's EULAs, you know or not.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, I haven't heard that particular I like the idea about So, what did else do these guys talk about should listen to this podcast. It's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a little it's a little tedious, you know, because it's four guys, and they're yucking it up, and they're all talking together, and they're drawn on whiteboards, and it's the pirate software podcast. Now, good guys. I like them. I like them. I like what they did there.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

All right, let's see what we got here. Let's go with you. Just brought this up. You brought up the issue of the Chinese adoption. So might as well go to the A series that was done on PBS fixie, an exposition on family planning that I thought was kind of interesting with the because it has a kicker. Last

Unknown

year, the US birth rate hit a record low, but data suggests that over the past 30 years, the number of adults who want or wish they had children has remained relatively stable. So why aren't they having children or expanding their families? Ali Rogin explores some of the complexities of today's family planning. Over the past few weeks, we've been speaking with Americans who say they want to have a child or grow their families about why

they're hesitant to do so. Their answers were varied and complex, just like the solutions they said would help them change their minds,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

grow your family.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Reminds me, I stopped it here thinking, well, this might be an interesting report. Then it turns out that you should listen and listen and listen. It is just a pro. It's a Kamala Harris promotional piece.

Unknown

Of course, I always wanted kids I love before you

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

play this second part. It cuts into interviews with just a random they have a person. Then. Say, boy, they don't like having kids, and then another person, they just one after the other, after the other, after the other. And you can start to hear the Kamala Harris promotion within the what these people are complaining about. Not everyone, by the way, look like they ever I'm sorry, none of them look like they want to have kids anyway. But okay, I always

Unknown

wanted kids. I love kids, but economically, I don't really know of anyone who can swing it anymore, even parents that are working full time, they can't afford childcare. They don't have a village to help them raise them. I'm grateful that we are in like, a stable financial situation. Still, it's difficult to raise a child. We don't have any family close by. We have friends who also have kids. Is

Adam CurryAdam Curry

she Chinese? Is this? Is this a Chinese lady? She was Spanish. Oh,

Unknown

so they are also busy taking care of their families. It's difficult. We don't we don't have anyone. Every year there comes out a new statistic of whether or not we've hit the turning point for climate change, and that's something that I take into consideration when it comes to starting a family, because I don't want to raise a child in a world that every year gets closer and closer to becoming uninhabitable. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Kamala Harris, climate change, okay, you better bring it home in the kicker.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, let's bring it home in the

Unknown

kicker, if universal child care was an option and we didn't have to worry about that, if universal health care was an option, and, you know, I wouldn't have to wonder if I can anticipate, you know, regular maternal care, high quality maternal care while I was pregnant, then, yeah, we absolutely would have made an effort to expand our family, for sure?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, yes. Because, of course, that's the 6000 that's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

exactly two main things. Is, you know, having universal child care, because you can't keep care of your own child, so you have to have somebody else. You want the government to take care of your child, and you want the government to take over the medical system. So there you go. There's, that's the camel. It went on. And if you if I played the whole thing, you start to hear it. No, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

heard it's all about sense. And you know, Sir Brian Baron of the Connecticut River Valley, he went searching for the 19 million new business applications. Ah, which I love, because, you know, that's what time talent treasure is all about. Yeah, totally, we have the best producers in the

universe. He says, Ah, I found it. The so called new business application in the 19 million claim is filing a Form SS four to obtain an employer identification number from the IRS, of which, of course, you know, 10 million will probably never do anything with it. Oh, so it's a little special,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

good catch. Yeah, congratulations on that. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

which I thought was a very good catch. Yeah, more Bs, and that's not exactly a new business filing. But okay, we'll take it. We'll take it. Brought up climate change. Do

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you mind if I good I got some climate change clips. I'll start it off with

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the latest climate change. This

Unknown

is what Asia's most powerful storm so far this year looks like, maximum sustained winds in excess of 230 kilometers per hour, battered southern China, damaging everything in its path, from buildings to trees, at least two people were killed and dozens injured in Hainan province, hundreds of 1000s of homes were left without power. Transport links were suspended, schools closed and millions of people

were told to avoid going out. Yagi has doubled in strength from tropical storm to super typhoon since it hit the Philippines earlier this week, killing more than a dozen people there a super typhoon has the same damaging effects as a category five hurricane. China, Vietnam and Laos are all in its path. Scientists say Typhoons are becoming stronger and more frequent as a result of warmer ocean temperatures, due to climate change, due to climate change. There

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it is, due to climate change. It's all climate change. Everything is climate change. It's all climate change. You know, of course, we have some kind I've

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

never had a super typhoon before. I was in Taiwan once during a typhoon. It was interesting.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, John, so

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I went to a to a department store who would do some shopping, and as this thing was coming in before I get back to the hotel, and I've never had this quite this experience before, but it started raining. So you couldn't it was like, the rain was like, it's like a like, a Deep Fog. You couldn't see five feet in front of you and you, but you had to make a run for it to get to a taxi to get out of there. And one step, I

can still remember this one step into. It to get out of the store soaked from head to foot in like one second, shoes ruined just instantly. And it's just quite fascinating to get that wet that fast. It's like jumping into a pool. And did people

Adam CurryAdam Curry

point at you and say, due to climate change?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, everybody Yes. They always say, climate change. A lot of broken umbrellas. Let's put it that way.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, that'll happen. So I guess the western part of the southwestern part of the United States, we got Arizona. We have Los Angeles, the heat dome moved over there, also known as summer in Texas. In Texas, it's been written. How about that? We were, we've been in Mexico. It's been pretty. It's very humid, but it's been 84 degrees. You know, it's nice. It's beautiful Hawaii weather, yeah, and a Texas, 7274 rain,

cold for Texas, for the hill country, the heart of Texas. So I don't know how the averages work, but you've obviously got to know it's the

Unknown

hottest year on record, likely to hit 108 degrees today in Phoenix Arizona tomorrow and the next day. Nothing.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's that's, that's low for Phoenix Arizona. Phoenix

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Arizona, in the summer like now, and it's, it's unbelievably hot, and it would, yeah, you can't even get back into your car if you, if you have to leave it outside, you can't get back into it. You have to take your key. You have to try to open the door with like, a napkin or so. You have need something, because you burn your hand on the door handle. You get the door open, you you reach and turn your put the key into the

ignition. Anyone in Arizona knows this, put the key in addition to start up the car and turn on the air conditioner and wait five to 10 minutes before

Adam CurryAdam Curry

getting in, before getting in and and this is where us being somewhat uh, older, or, as they say in Mexico, Anejo, she's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

also the name of a age tequila. Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

that's why I brought it up. Anejo aged. We like a fine age tequila. We know that this is nothing new. I've been to Arizona as a kid. It was hot. I've been to Nevada. We as kids, we went to, I remember our parents, oh, you're in Vegas. I don't remember why, but it must have been nine, so a good 51 years ago. And we literally did the old, oh, let's, let's boil an egg, let's fry an egg on the pavement. And it worked. You know, it's so anyway, it's horrible. It's 108 in Phoenix, Arizona.

Unknown

This past Tuesday, Phoenix officially recorded a record breaking 100 straight days of heat at or above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. And since the heat dome over the Southwest has not budged, that record is likely to continue to go up. Today will be 104 of one days of 100 degree weather, and more than half of those days have been higher than 110 degrees. Record breaking heat in recent years has also caused a record number of heat related injuries, illnesses and deaths across the

globe. World Health Organization estimates that half a million people worldwide die from heat related causes each year here in the United States, hospitals have seen the cut. In the country, have seen dramatic increases in heat injuries like severe burns from Sun baked pavement and metal heat related delirium and heat stroke. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

obviously, dramatic increases, the same as saying 50% increase over what we don't know. We don't know what the baseline is, and we know that people who burn themselves on the pavement are usually drug addicts who are passing out and burning on the pavement. But doesn't matter. You know you're just walking around and you burn yourself on the pavement. That's the impression they give us. But you

Unknown

should know what happens to your body when it exposes itself to extreme heat. What

Adam CurryAdam Curry

does your body do when it exposes itself to extreme heat? Job,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

well, usually the My body doesn't expose itself. I have some some control over it, and and usually, usually sweats, maybe, or it decides to go inside or find some shade. Does

Adam CurryAdam Curry

your body decide to do that?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You on its own. You've got a great

Unknown

body. The human body has evolved to maintain a core temperature of about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, or 37 degrees Celsius. Our bodies are built with complex, effective temperature regulation systems to try to help us handle variable weather in extreme heat. Those temperature regulation systems are hard at work. First, your body attempts thermal regulation by moving blood flow outward toward the

surface of the skin the heart rate. Quickens blood vessels dilate to release heat, the skin becomes flush, then your body begins to sweat. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

wow. This he's explaining sweating. This is great.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What kind of morons listen to this MSNBC

Adam CurryAdam Curry

viewers who think everything is due to climate change. By the way, the same thing happens when you're in the sauna,

Unknown

flush. Then your body begins to sweat. A sweat evaporates. It carries HEAT off the body in an attempt to cool it. But if it's really hot, especially if it's hot and humid, these thermal regulation systems that we've developed won't be enough. Oh no. Go

Adam CurryAdam Curry

inside. Go inside. Quick.

Unknown

The heart will continue to be fast, putting strain on cardiovascular systems. The skin will continue to sweat, depleting your body of water and essential electrolytes. Oh, I need electro electrolytes. Electrolytes. Quick dehydration will set

Adam CurryAdam Curry

in. Have a drink of water, maybe

Unknown

excessive sweating will cause an imbalance of fluids and salts in the human system, muscles will cramp. They'll feel weak. Your heart will keep working harder. The kidneys, which help filter waste and manage fluid in your body, become strained.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Wow, this

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is so good. I feel weak my kidneys, I don't what should I do?

Unknown

As your body loses water, the volume of body in your water decreases. So does your blood pressure? No, the blood thickens as it loses moisture. The heart that has to my

Adam CurryAdam Curry

blood is thickening. I'm slowing down. I don't think I can make it inside for a drink of water. And harder

Unknown

to pump blood to the brain, because less brain to the less blood to the brain means less oxygen to the brain, which causes lightheadedness, confusion, dizziness, even fainting, like our president, when unable to regulate your body's core temperature rises rapidly. If your body's core temperature nears 104 degrees, it reaches the threshold for heat stroke, with that strain on the heart, on the brain, on the kidneys and the liver. All that's happening now is that

your risk of organ failure has increased. My

Adam CurryAdam Curry

organs are failing, failing. If your

Unknown

body hits a core temperature of 107 degrees, Wow, your body's proteins begin to break down. There is irreversible vital organs, and usually comes death,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

death, oh, no, death, death is next. So this is a very long lead into the Copernicus Institute, which is this, this European, you know, they've now become the, the, the, the, the official word on climate change and temperatures. They're in the EU, funded by the EU and but everyone believes in the Copernicus Institute, extreme

Unknown

heat is even deadlier than hurricanes, tornadoes and floods combined. Really,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I don't, I don't think that's blood through I think

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

combined everything all dropped from heat. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I have a feeling that more people die in hurricanes and stuff. But

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

okay, statistician out there listening to the show, we can get some numbers.

Unknown

Last year was the hottest here on record globally, and this summer broke last year's record. Just yesterday, the European Union's Copernicus climate change service reported that summer 2024 was the hottest, most humid summer ever recorded on Earth, ever on Earth. This summer, the Biden administration announced a heat plan, an initiative to help protect workers from excessive heat, as well as to fortify communities across the country to handle extreme heat as it

becomes more common. Their plan includes cooling infrastructure as well as heat information systems to help prepare and protect people from the growing threat of extreme heat, all supported by the National Weather Service, the EPA and NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, supported by them. Meanwhile, as Trump and some Republicans in Congress continue to deny the existence of human caused climate change, the project 2025,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

stop, stop, stop. He all of a sudden changes from climate change the very at the very end, when condemning Trump, yes to human caused climate change. Why nowhere in the report so far has it been brought up that they believe it's human caused? It's just climate change. It could be a natural phenomenon. Could because of the sun, could

because of the 22 year Sun cycle. Could be sunspots. It could be a lot of things, but now, because you're going to condemn Trump, you slip it in as though that was the factor all along. Very tricky.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I would say climate change is caused by project 2025 that's what's going that's what's going on here. Meanwhile,

Unknown

as Trump and some Republicans in Congress continue to deny the existence of human caused climate change, the project 2025 blueprint for the next conservative administration wants to gut the EPA. Wants to completely dismantle the. Weather Service and Noah, oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no, we won't know if there's climate change. Then they

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

want to gut, if they want to eliminate, they want to shut down the epic, I don't, I never

Adam CurryAdam Curry

heard this. Hello. It's in Project 25

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

oh, it's in that stupid project 2025. Thing that they Yeah, that Trump never read, yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

exactly. That's what's going on.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, well, I got a couple of things here I want to play. One is the course we have to play this. This is a even NTD, or which seems to be your favorite channel. Now that you're stealing my material, you're

Adam CurryAdam Curry

stealing my material,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I just have to just have to just a little bitty climate clip from man TD, and this is the feels like feels like temperature. They're even doing it this

Unknown

week, the nation is bracing for a severe heat wave with extreme temperatures anticipated to affect 32 major cities. Some areas are expected to exceed 105 degrees starting Wednesday, a heat advisory has been issued for South Florida, including Miami, Dade Broward and the Florida Keys were, feels like temperatures could soar to 110 degrees Wednesday afternoon feels

Adam CurryAdam Curry

like temperatures.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Feels like temperatures. You know, I've been working with Horowitz for over a decade on the and he lives in Florida, and I don't care, any Floridian will tell you the same thing, the summers in Florida are miserable, yes. So what else is new? Yeah. And anyway, and CNN report feels like temperature.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

CNN reports it's early September. What should be the busiest stretch of hurricane season. Forecasters predicted this was going to be a bad one, storm after storm, the most bullish forecasts on record in straight instead, the Atlantic Ocean is enveloped in a rare and strange calm that has flummoxed forecasters. And here's the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

finish you read. I know if you're reading that, but yeah, this is fascinating, because what's happened, and this was reported. We didn't have any I didn't get any clips of it, but about two weeks ago, they were wondering, Where's all these damned hurricanes they're supposed to have? Yeah, and they and the and the water is warmer than usual, and now they come up with this bogus theory. They keep theorizing. Everything's done in the pat you know, this old armchair quarterbacking

where, well, it must be this. It's the temperatures have gotten so hot in the oceans that is confusing. The storms, they can't form. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't know what to do. I'm confused. I think we actually predicted this was gonna this was gonna happen. I think that maybe a few months back, oh, it's gonna be the worst September ever. You watch climate change. It's gonna kill so many people Florida, be on beyond watch horrible. I think we even just out of principle, said, No, it's not gonna happen.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You got it right. Just out of principle, exactly so full of it, yeah, that it doesn't take a genius to say, Oh, that's not gonna happen. As

Adam CurryAdam Curry

an aviator, I can tell you that you can predict what's going to happen in a certain area, like an airport. Weather wise, you can do 24 hours, but really 12 hours, you can predict that. You can't predict anything out further out than that. So it's all horse crap. It really is. But this is, this is the one man this. This is what they're going to use to talk about, you know, this will be the reason for all these

mosquitoes. And, you know, all the horrible we're all dying from all of these horrible triple equine you know, or was it Eastern Equine Encephalitis? Yeah. I think actually have a, yeah, I have, I have a clip, actually, of this West

Unknown

Nile virus, spread by mosquitoes, is now deadly in New Jersey, the state health department New Jersey deaths were older adults in Cumberland and Mercer counties.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Of course, old people die all the time, from from disease,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

he died, please. New infection. Well, I get the bird. I could

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, you just okay. That's okay. You can you? Oh, you have another play my

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

bird here's another one, same thing, bird flu. This time, bird flu. Get you let bird flu out. Oh,

Unknown

I'm sorry. Health officials have identified a person in Missouri sick with bird food, despite having no known contact with animals, marks the first case of the virus in the United States this year, not linked to farm work, and appears Juliana Kim reports the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that a person in Missouri was hospitalized and treated for bird flu. Unlike other human cases, this patient has no

known. Exposure to a sick animal. Bird flu has been spreading across farms in the United States since the spring. So far, there have been 14 human cases of the virus, and nearly all the patients had been linked to sick dairy cows or poultry. The CDC says the Missouri patient has recovered and the virus did not appear to have spread to close contacts, adding that the risk of bird flu to the general public remains low. Aside from Missouri, human cases have been reported in Texas,

Michigan and Colorado. So where

Adam CurryAdam Curry

do you get it from? This? To get it from another person or a monkey?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, the way I see it, who cares? It's one guy out of the blue who got bird flu? There are people getting sick or getting shot, or there's all kinds of news around. This is a non story. I'm going to make a prediction, trying to make it a story. Well, of course, I'm

Adam CurryAdam Curry

going to make a prediction. The on deck for the next solution for climate change will be roundabouts.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Roundabouts, yes, okay, you better explain that one roundabouts

Adam CurryAdam Curry

in.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, wait a minute. Let me guess, let me I can, I guess? Yeah, go for it. You go round about, you know, roundabout is the thing in the middle of you. They have these in Berkeley, they put them in for no good reason. Climate. What are we gonna do? We got four way stops. I don't know what to do. So then they have the roundabouts, which are more dangerous, and very few people know how to use them correctly

so, but they have them anyway. So they put one in. That's because you go round and round and round, it creates a whirlpool, a vortex, which will then change the weather patterns and cause hurricanes and tornadoes in areas where they no longer exist or they never have existed thus far. Well, yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

no. First of all, it doesn't surprise me that Berkeley has them, and I bet, if you look into it, Berkeley probably had a study done that said people don't idle at roundabouts. You see, you're not sitting there with your car idling, idling, throwing greenhouse gasses into the air, waiting for either a a four way stop, which is confusing, or for a traffic light. Roundabouts will be the I'm telling you. You can write it down on the book. Roundabouts are going to be the next climate change solution.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Roundabouts, I find them incredibly annoying. With that,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'd like to thank you for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in the kids from China, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one the only Mr. John.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

The morning to you. Miss. The morning, all ships to see boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the Dames and nights out there.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Hello. Hello there trolls. We have 21 let me count the trolls for a second I was looking for 2101 this seems on par. It seems pretty good, particularly for low for vacation week. What was my what was the cotton gin? What was the, what was the the peak? What was the, was the peak? I want the peak was

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

we have one of our producers that's, that's good. Cotton Gin

Adam CurryAdam Curry

does that? Yeah? Cotton gin? Yeah, cotton gin hasn't posted it yet. He's probably looking right. He's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

doing a statistical analysis of the flow of the flow of roundabouts. He's got all these numbers. It's like, here it is. He can. He sent me an email condemning me for questioning his abilities. Well, cotton

Adam CurryAdam Curry

gin is the man 2215, he says

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was that was the hot, slow. The pillow thing is low,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's low, it's low. And we had a newsletter fail. What happened?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't know I but I'm looking at alternative news. You

Adam CurryAdam Curry

blame you blamed Linux. You said my Linux did it.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

There is I got a long note. We have a bunch of guys out there that know what they're doing. And he claims that the Linux there's a couple of products that Linux servers use consistently that are spam blockers, and we get that our sites keep coming up in them.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That's because people report us. That's what happens. That's how that's how it happens. Douchebags, you can get off for what

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

being night, for telling the truth, for getting to the bottom of things, or for condemning Democrats. Yeah, there you go.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I think that must be go. Look at who maintains Linux, and we understand these trolls are listening in the troll room, which you can join@trollroom.io or you can use a modern podcast app, you know, the one that has transcriptions so you can read along if you're in a foreign country and want to learn some English and like, Oh, what is this word? Oh, it's good. I get

it because we speak clearly. As John pointed out earlier, by the way, there was some incompatibility with something with the fountain modern podcast that fountain for the live. Show. Because the way it works is when we send out the batch signal, all these modern podcast apps give you an alert. You tap on the same place you get your podcast, and then you can listen right away. And so it was crashing the app. Somehow we fixed that. So if you were using that before and you bailed out

on us, on the on the last episode, just come back. It works again. Podcast apps.com,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

so it's a moving target. It is, it is, it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a moving target. But you know that's, that's why it's worth a Nobel Peace Prize. I heard that this past week, Spotify deplatformed an inordinate amount of episodes and podcasts, and I'm getting a list.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

What's an inordinate mean to you? 10, no, 100, 100 100

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'd say 100 100 podcasts. That's a lot. And from what I understand, most of it were, most of these podcasts were political podcasts.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, we'd be toast on that platform.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You know, the we used to have couple, we're not

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

even really political. We're basically a political it just so turns out, yeah, yes, that we condemn one side more than the other. Although we condemn both sides in

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this election, we certainly do. I mean, I mean, look the demons. Yeah, when

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you got some dipshit like Kamala Harris running for president, people are voting for you. You gotta be honest. Do you gotta be Oculus. You can't borderline nuts.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You have to be honest with the people. That's just, that's just the fact, we used to have a couple of guys would upload the podcast to YouTube, you remember that? And then put, you know, just an image in it. Some of them, I think even, would put in extra images. Yeah, and they stopped doing they said, you know, I'm getting strikes on my account.

Because some would, someone, would, you know, report, or whatever reason they take down that episode, and then whoever was doing that, their their account, would get a strike. Yeah, so you can see that. So that shows that this is the only place we are, the only place we can be as, and we don't have video, so we're struggling over here, people we can't you know, Linux is against our newsletter. I mean, you got to help us out here. Doesn't hurt. And you know, what was I reading here?

So I already told you about the nine minutes of ads in front of the LEX Friedman, oh, so would you consider only fans to be kind of like value for value?

Unknown

Yeah, I would. Did you hear their numbers?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh, there, I can't. You're gonna make me nauseous if you tell me their numbers. I know. I mean, I had Dana Brunetti wife. Is on onlyfans. No, she's a, she's a entertainment lawyer. Oh, no, and she the inherit the she's an heiress to the Bijan fashion fortune.

Unknown

Oh, can she? Can she get me a bag? She, you know, she

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

can't even get me a sweater. Okay, wait, Alex. Alex is her name.

Unknown

I can just see you in a Bijou sweater.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

So she's, it's Bijon, I think, whatever. And she's an entertainment lawyer. And she just in passing, mentioned to me about one of her clients who was having, you know, an only fans client, person about their their never mentioned who it was, but it's one of her clients. And she said she'd made 10 million last year

Adam CurryAdam Curry

only fans revenue this past year, $7 billion

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it's unbelievable. Maybe, meanwhile, people bitch about sending us five bucks. Maybe we

Adam CurryAdam Curry

should, maybe we should turn on some cameras, take off our shirts. You

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

know, my pay off. You never know. You can be

Adam CurryAdam Curry

in the troll room, like, flip your hair. Adam, okay, no problem. Yeah, I'll do anything at this point.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, yeah, and I'm sure that the ten million girl, I'm assuming it's a girl, is not the top earner.

Unknown

Oh, no, I'm

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

sure there's I didn't I should ask Alex about this. But she probably, because she's been into it enough, she probably knows the top earners, probably 50, 60 million bucks. Who knows? Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

maybe this is a year, maybe we can get some tips on what to do, because we're doing something wrong.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

We're not doing anything wrong and we're not it's just as different type. But there's, there's some people that have a an allure that we

Adam CurryAdam Curry

lack. Yes, yes. I think we lack several pieces of allure. Was

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

two in particular, yes, exactly two are allures that a lot of these girls have, yes, and I think that accounts for a lot of it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, we know where the donations are going. The going to only fans stop spending your money. They. Air, send something to the best podcast in the universe.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You're not getting a date with those women. Hello,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

John and Adam, however, will come to clean your house. No problem whatsoever. Instead, we have opted for a true value for value, mug club media. The future of media is small people, that's that's how you know. I really believe that. I think that, you know, you'll have these just pockets, little pockets of entertainment, and people support them. And I'm happy with, in general, happy with the support we get. I know you're never happy, but I'm happy with the support we get.

No, you can't be. I'm amazed. I'm amazed that people support

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

us at all. Yeah, you're, you're shocked. Sometimes

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I am like, What? What? What this is actually, still, hey, it'll be when is October, right? Isn't it coming up

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the end of October is our anniversary. But we have before the at the end of this month, we're having our show 1700 Wow. And that'll be,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, that's right, it's a seven episodes away. Oh, that is the end. Yeah, it's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

coming right up,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

though. So we have 1700 and our 17 year anniversary. Is that what kind of, what kind of

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

one two punch we usually get some money for during this period? Is not today, necessarily, but we get some money. Is

Adam CurryAdam Curry

17 a particular stone? Or is it a?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Is it a stone?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, like a diamond, Ruby, or is it a,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you know, the book of knowledge? Who answered this question? I don't have 17, but somebody, somebody in the in the troll room, the few people that are there, one of them should know what the 17th anniversary stone is. I'd

Adam CurryAdam Curry

like to know. I am indeed quite interested. The 17 whole would be my

Unknown

guess. Kidney No, that

Adam CurryAdam Curry

doesn't sound right. Kid, no,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

kidney stone is not that'd be good. Interesting ring, though I like

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it is a prime number, though 17 is a prime number. So that's, that's, that's, there's something there

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that is a, that's a big deal. Yeah.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Caroline. What Caroline? Carnelian, carnelian, or Carnelian

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Carnelian? Yeah, Carnelian. Those are the little red stones. They actually have met the beaches over here in San Francisco, San Francisco in the off the peninsula, not the peninsula, but Marin County beaches have Cornelius in the sand that you can pick up as

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you walk along. So it's not a very valuable stone, is what you're telling Not really. None

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

of it's just sitting there. It's pretty though.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So the way it works, and you've already heard some boots on the ground, and we have people we can call upon who help us, because if there's one thing about the best podcasting universe, we have more and better producers than any other media outlet known to man. That's why we can say in the universe and everywhere, somebody has some special

knowledge about that one thing. And I think we've successfully trained people that they are producers, not listeners, and they need to support us with their time with their talent or with their treasure. And part of that is, of course, our Dutch masters who create artwork for every single new show. There was a there was a guy who was looking for some logo work on the podcasting 2.0 development group. And he says, Adam, I really love, I really love the artwork you guys do. Who do you use?

Unknown

Like, who do we use

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

listening to the show? You figure it out. It really

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is, I send them a link to no agenda Art generator.com which is where anyone who has talent or not at all can upload art. And sometimes the no talents or just the prompt jockeys win. And quite big actually, although I was looking at the Latina actually asked me, Do you still have the stats? Yeah, it's still nick the rat, Martin JJ, and then comes Darren O'Neill, and those guys are still at the top for all the episodes they did. And Nick uploads something from

time to time. Rarely he hasn't really hit it. And Martin JJ, is he still alive? Is he still around? I don't see him any. Yeah, he

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

posts on mastodon. Oh, he

Adam CurryAdam Curry

does. Yeah, he How do you know you're not on mastodon? How do you know

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

this is so I'm referring back to the last time it was on Mastodon, which was about a year ago, and he was posting quite a bit. Okay, I guess I have him confused with someone else, but I don't think so.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I did hear from my birthday. I did hear from pelker. So he's still around. Oh,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

good as I wonder if he listens to the show. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

think so. Well, maybe not. I don't know. I don't know. Anyway, our

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

he found a new lady and she told him to stop listening. As you think that was it. That's possible. That's possible, very common. Yeah, guys that do anything that women tell them to

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes, see, true fans, $7 billion

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yes, perfect example, only fans, not true fans. Man, there's not like true fans, though it'd be good. We can start that. No, it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

already a new podcast app, true fans. True fans. FM, that's why it was on my brain. You saw it? Yeah, past my brain. Yeah. We want to thank correct a record who has been around for a long time, who brought us the artwork for Episode 1692 we titled that one salted ducks, and we just laughed at this one. It was Putin holding up some cash. Yeah.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

We normally don't like putting politicians into the arts. We don't make that clear. So we don't have a bunch of it happening. We

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't. But this was funny. It made sense in context of the of the tenant media scandal. And even had plastered over there value for value. We like the use of the Russian, you know, the Cyrillic kind of font. So

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

we chose it, yes, yeah, I think, I think that made it full, full for Cyrillic Yes. Font worked at the top.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

There were a couple of other decent tries. There was data did niet agenda, which had kind of an Uncle Sam puppet, also with the faux Cyrillic font. Darren O'Neill did a, he tried, tried a good job there with the podcaster vending machine by a podcaster, but didn't quite hit home. Let me see, Darren also did a free speech troll. No, the no Russian money here, another corrector record, a couple of manosphears,

which were which were nice, but there was really nothing. It just wasn't there was a comic strip blogger did a but insert Russian money here, and again, he doesn't have the the prompt skills that Darren O'Neill has, because the lettering just doesn't look like it's actually on the jeans, yeah, you know. And somehow Darren has figured that out. I don't know what he's using. And by the way, we've

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

looked at his prompts, and it's like he's really good. I mean, I think I don't know where I get the sense that Darren first got a clue from comic strip blogger, possibly, and then took it, took it in a new direction. God, it's like having the it's a knack thing you get, you kind of get a feeling for it, and you can just start throwing requests at the AI, and its response correctly,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

open AI.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It may also be, I don't know what he's using for a system. There's so many of these

Adam CurryAdam Curry

now. Yeah, there are. Well open AI is now discussing their new pricing model for their next this is going to be the the large language model that really works, the really, really good one this time. It'll really, really, really, really work. Do you know what they're going to charge per month?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

$100 $2,000

Adam CurryAdam Curry

why? What? Yep, yeah, for, I think it's called Strawberry. Is there next? The next release?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, that's not gonna work. It'll finally

Adam CurryAdam Curry

make sense with the amount of investment that's gone into it. Yes. The the new reasoning focused LLM dubbed strawberry, and a new flagship LLM called Orion. It's finally gonna work. You can alert Andrew Horowitz. He loves this stuff. It. It tells him exactly what to do in the market,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

and I'll bet it's so accurate at picking stocks. Yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

he won't have to go to work anymore. This beautiful anyway. Thank you very much. Correct a record, but thank you to all of our artists, all of them, just like correct a record, art masters Dutch fine and Masters of Fine Art. And you can join that Legion by going to no agenda, artgenerator.com, create an account if you don't have one, upload it. You know, we look at everything and we appreciate and we'll be honest, we're going to help you with your skills. So there people

have got roundy. Roundy went on to have an actual career with his artistic skills, and he had at least when he left, he attributed some of that to our critique of his work. And now he works good, yes, now he works for daily wire. He does well, I think he started doing political illustration art, yeah. And now he's doing video stuff. Hey, he's got quite a career over there.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Spunk, so good for him. He's a talented guy. I actually prefer his fine art. But

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, I miss him. Do all this. I miss him as long as he's, you know, once he went over there, yeah, he

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

wasn't, he was he, he, when he was doing stuff for the show, it was like, let me get a couple of wins here, and I'm out.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

See ya. See you later, boys. Yeah, you know exactly, see a boys done.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I'm out. We

Adam CurryAdam Curry

also like to thank all of the producers who sent us treasure can be any amount. In fact, we encourage you to return value in monetary amounts that equal the value you got out of it, since we can't look at anybody's personal circumstances, entirely up to you, which is the Fair. Way of doing it. That's how it works here at mug club media.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I hope you should get off. I'm gonna

Adam CurryAdam Curry

stop. I'm gonna stop it. That was the last time it just flows so nicely. But get off. No, it doesn't okay. But right. I'm stopping. Put it in the meeting notes. We thank anybody over $50 under 50, we don't mention, for reasons of anonymity, actually had a number of people come in under 50 today, 4990 nines. What else did I see here? I saw a lot of 4990

nines. 4949 and you can also, and this is something we encourage everybody to do, regardless of the value, send back for a particular show or particular topic, is do a sustaining donation, which can be any frequency, any amount, anything you like. Go to no agenda donations.com. Tony Fitzpatrick went to no agenda donations.com. He is from Switzerland, from feyenbach, which I have no idea where

You can use it anywhere credits are recognized, including imdb.com, if you don't have an account, you can open one, because you are a real producer, just like Hollywood, and we'll read your note, and $300 and above, you get executive producer credit,

and we read your note. And Tony Fitzpatrick, who sounds anything but Swiss, came in with

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

exactly,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sounds like an alias to me, Tony Fitzpatrick from Tony from fryingbach, $1,000 but no note,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We moved to Sir JK, in Green Bay, Wisconsin. He's in De Pere, Wisconsin, 333 dot 33 one of our favorite amounts. We love all the threes. Thank you, John. And by the way, did you notice all of a sudden, there's a video going around of all the 30 threes, 33 cases from the pandemic. Did you get tagged? Yeah, I'm like, we, we were on this when it actually happened. Now, people like, Wow. Have you seen this? Like,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah, we've been talking about 30 threes for 1515, years, minimum. You used to do a section on this show called the magic number, yeah. And you would read the 33 references for about 10 minutes, and then it got such a to be such a long segment, you just stopped doing it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But also we had boring we had super cuts and everything during the pandemic. Manners. Just

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

be pre pandemic with this, doing it forever. We're all over it. But no, we, of course, we, we set the stage for other people to take advantage of the situation. So what are you gonna do that's all

Adam CurryAdam Curry

right. That's why we are the best podcast in the universe. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

think some reason, well, that among other things, sir.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

JK says, Thank you, John and Adam, I stepped away for a bit, but I know it is time to come back. Too many 30 threes telling me a donation was in order. Prosperity and abundance.

pharmacies. I always thought they were already shut down in California in a public hearing this Thursday, this California State Board of Pharmacy, the BOP is proposing regulations to block patient access to safe treatments like gluco gluctathion, vitamin B 12, vitamin B 12. You just buy that over the counter. What's the deal? And other infusions. I guess it's because somebody wants to blend it together and have mortar and pestle, heaven forbid. Nationwide, cancer is

the leading cause of death among firefighters. A glutathione is a natural antioxidant that prevents cancer by repairing cells damaged by pollution, stress and harmful chemicals. I've

Adam CurryAdam Curry

heard about this from firefighters. They you, they take it.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

This is another, yeah, when you get there, you fight, you're gonna get that that smoke has got to be nasty. Just breathe any at any time, let alone over and over. This is another facet of our war on compounding pharmacies, and that's who makes these life saving treatments. I encourage the no agenda nation to learn more@stopthebopp.com that's s, t, O, P, the bop, bop.com. Sign the petition. Show up. Show up at the hearing virtually, or whatever you can do to help us

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I think paper checks are fantastic. I love them.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

one international clip out of the way.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh boy. International clip riots

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

in France. France the new prime minister. Everyone's bent out of shape about this guy? Yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is it France? New pm protests? Is that that would

Unknown

be itchy, angry demonstrators from the left turned out across France to protest President Emmanuel Macron decision to appoint a Conservative Prime Minister rather than a candidate from among their ranks and Paris. Eleanor Beardsley reports, while no party got a majority, the leftist coalition got the most votes in a snap legislative elections this summer. Voters on the left say they're the ones

who kept the far right from taking power. Yet their votes are not being respected in the choice of the new prime minister. They accused Macron of stealing the election. Macron's choice was 70 year old Michel bounier, a veteran politician who he sees as a steady hand for the country after divisive elections. But protesters are demanding a prime minister from the left and a political program that will begin with bringing the retirement age back down to 62 they say their protests will continue.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, this is and actually, I have a follow on clip to this, because I've been following this as well. This is bull crap, because it was really the far right who got most of the votes, but the left, the entire left and center said, Oh no, we're not going to let you into govern we're going to all be together. And even though we hate each other and can't decide on anything, we just don't want you far right to run the

country. And so then, and then they go out and which, I think this is actually a kind of a good choice

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

for the guy's pretty uh even keeled, yeah, I think it's a good choice too.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah. I mean, he, by the way, far right is bull crap, because this guy, actually, I have a who is Michel Barnier. Clip. Who is

Unknown

Michel Barnier, France's new prime minister. Michel Barnier is a member of the Republicans, a right wing political party. The 73 year old is set to be the oldest Prime Minister in modern France's Fifth Republic history, replacing 34 year old Gabriel Ital, who was the youngest Barnier, is a seasoned politician with a diverse background as a foreign agriculture and Environment Minister in numerous governments in the world of European

politics. However, he is better known for his former role as the EU's Brexit negotiator, which earned him the nickname Monsieur Brexit as Brussels top negotiator. Barnier made a name for himself as a strong defender of EU institutions against the UK's nationalist Brexit politicians like Boris Johnson in 2021 however, there came a shift when Barnier ran for the presidency against Macron, transitioning from a pro EU

politician to embracing a French nationalist stance. He advocated for the superiority of French sovereignty over the EU, offering to develop a non EU immigration policy. He also opposed the powers of the European Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights over the French states.

Barney's Republicans party only has 39 deputies out of 577 seats in the National Assembly, and will need the support of far right leader Marine Le Pen's national rally party Le Pen has said she would wait for Bonnie's first policy speech in front of Parliament to decide whether to back him. If she does, it would be a far right backed government under Macron. Far Right. He has long portrayed himself as the last defense against the rise of Le Pen. The question is, has Macron handed the far right a

major win? Far Right,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you know, the French should be delighted,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

guys of he's a French guy. He's French. Yes, he's for France. He's a, you know, the, yeah, he's a, basically, a French guy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

He they should be delighted. Should be delighted with him. No,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

they're the globalists, aren't they're they hate, they hate the French, they hate the they hate all these countries, they want to be one giant, you know Reich,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

exactly, and and if Trump wins, you're going to see the same thing happen in the United States. You're going to see the left nut jobs, the globalists come out and go insane. I can guarantee it. There was always Trump doesn't win, it's gonna be civil war. Now, if Trump wins, they're all gonna go ape crap, or, I should say ape shit. Really

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

ape crap. I'm so show titles. I'm

Adam CurryAdam Curry

so used to saying crap instead of shit that I said ape crap doesn't sound right. Don't you think

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

absolutely, there's no doubt about it, that they're gonna kind of a replay of 2016 although it's gonna have to change some of their strategies, because we're getting sick of the old arguments. And the people that are that are coming out, are the ones that I always retweeting. Are they, you know, crazy looking people that are look like women or guys. You don't even know what sex they are, and they got the big nose rings right in the nostril, nothing right in the middle. I want a cow.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

How many of those people do you really think there are?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I don't think there's that many. No, but they have a there's not a lot, but they have a high profile, and then they're fun to mock. And there's a lot of teachers that fall into that category, which is really a scary part. That's,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it's that's distressing. Okay, I'm gonna walk into your beat. I can't help it, but this is it. Is your beat, and I'm taking it down to the depths you have not been able to go before because Kristen Welker, who doesn't know her for Meet the Press, I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

was watching her this morning, and you did those hands of hers. You're like an old black laborer. They're huge and they're they're not made up at all. You know, you're supposed to do hand makeup to lighten them up or something. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it does yellow. They

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

don't do anything with their hands.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We're looking at this purely from a television production standpoint, yeah, yeah, obviously I don't care. Well, I'm just making sure everybody but

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

it is distressing to watch it

Adam CurryAdam Curry

either don't use your hands or yellow. Her up, was what John just said. Okay,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

well, they yell her, they yellow her up, but they don't do anything with their hands.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I know which I, you know, I'm

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

very pale. So when they, when I was doing TV, yeah, they would make me up your hands and do the same. I always, you always tell them that you have to tell the makeup artist to do it, because they rather not. But you tell them you get through some of my hands because, because if you're, if you're made up, and you're darkened up a little bit, and then you lift your hand, it looks like a skeletal hand was

super white, you know. It doesn't work. And so, yeah, and they make up ours always, oh yes, yes, yes, that's a good idea, you know.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And by the way, these days, I mean, a lot has changed since we were in television, John, in fact, the biggest change is we used to have blue screen. Now it's green screen. People, that's how old we are. I remember when it was blue screen,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

but also screen was the original.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, the original key, key color. But now, nowadays they don't have pancake makeup. They have spray. It's a spray on, and you just go and spray right on. So they could easily spray the hands. It'll take 30 seconds, 30 seconds to spray the hands. Anyway, yeah, so I am diving into a trend, which you identified months and months ago. Ago as something new, something that is probably well, that has always been the question, is it even constitutional? And here's the opening salvo, 54

Unknown

year old father, Colin gray faces 14 charges, including four counts of involuntary manslaughter, two counts of second degree murder and eight counts of Cruelty to Children. The director of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation saying the father, quote, knowingly allowed his son to possess a weapon. Law enforcement sources telling NBC News he gifted his son an AR 15 style rifle after both of them were interviewed in May of 2023 by the FBI in connection with threats to carry

out a school shooting. Colin Gray's arrest comes just months after James and Jennifer Crumbley became the first parents to be convicted for a school shooting committed by their child. Their son killed four students in Oxford, Michigan in 2021 so

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you identified this right away as a new trend, which is lock the parents up for the things that the kids have done and we've seen

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

and I to go further, I I believe it to be a racist trend, because I think the long term target is the black family.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That's right, because about that, yes, I'd forgotten

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

about this, and I believe this is just opening salvos. So you can say, Well, we did it the whites, and now we can do it the blacks, and they're going to go when they go when they go after the black family, especially those single moms who raise a bunch of kids that aren't are not well well behaved. Let's put it that way. There. It's going to cause issues, but they've got, they're going to, they're going to back it up with it, doing it to the white families, at least one or

two more. Then, then you're going to see it happened, and it's going to cause nothing but trouble.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So of course, this was politicized. I'm actually going to skip that. Joe Biden, you know, like, oh, it's guns in America. JD, Vance, fact of life, got to arm this teachers. We got to make sure no one to come to but more important and more interesting to myself, you and the show is, how does this work? How does this work? Legally? Danny,

Unknown

let me turn to you. The charges against the suspect's father are unusual, but not unprecedented. What do you make of them and put them into context for

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what say you for us, if

Unknown

you can, we're in a moment in American history where it seems like there's a sea change for all of American history, we have not held parents criminally responsible for the crimes of their children unless they participate or facilitate the crime. This is a major change in that we are charging parents with murder, in this case, not intentional murder. This is a version of reckless murder. Not all murder

statutes or crimes are intentional murder. Sometimes, if you are reckless, you can be charged with depraved heart, style murder, reckless murder, criminal negligence. And that's exactly what's going on here. The father is being charged. What

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

does this like? Reckless murder like when they killed Garrett Weaver's up there in this compound, killed his wife with a sniper, just FBI. Sniper just shot his wife who had nothing to do with anything. He killed him dead.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That was dog. That was law enforcement. But standby.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's different.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's different than whatever they want. Okay, it's lawfare to the highest degree. It's coming up. That's

Unknown

exactly what's going on here. The father is being charged with under Georgia law, you can be charged with second degree murder as a result of Cruelty to Children. That's a separate criminal statute that requires criminal negligence and

some kind of harm to a child. And that criminal negligence is defined as essentially recklessness, consciously disregarding a known risk, and that's where the FBI tape comes in, because the government is going to use that to show that he was aware of the risk well in advance and failed to act properly. So

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I love this because the FBI did nothing. They failed to act properly, but the parent is now to blame because they failed to act properly, even though law enforcement was called in, and this morning, I even read that the mother had sent had called the school and said, you use like imminent threat. So

Unknown

Danny, help us just break down some of these charges, their second degree murder charges they're apparently based on the Cruelty to Children charges break that down with how they differ from the eight counts of Cruelty to Children charges, he's being separately charged with Cruelty to Children, but that particular section of the murder statute, second degree murder requires a predicate of Cruelty to Children. So while freestanding charge by itself, it is also the

predicate to second degree murder. It works like this. Second degree murder is defined as, in this case, Cruelty to Children, plus a death resulting from that Cruelty to Children. Then you go to the cruelty statute, and that requires some harm to a child. And. As a result of criminal negligence or recklessness, and then you go to the definition of recklessness, and that's what it is. It's consciously disregarding a known risk. You're also going to need what's called proximate cause.

In other words, foreseeability. Was the criminal negligence here not only the actual cause of the death, but was it foreseeable? And that's a very interesting concept in the modern era, because it now appears that, unlike most of American history, modern juries may be willing to accept that it is foreseeable if you have a troubled child and that child has access to a gun, that a horrific school shooting may result. We may be in a new era of criminal foreseeability. Criminal

Adam CurryAdam Curry

foreseeability. Wow,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

pre crime, totally. Let's

Unknown

talk about this new era. Because, of course, the crumblies in Michigan again, their son charged with a school shooting as well, put all of this into context and that sea change that we witnessed when the crumb leaves were convicted. Yes, exactly, even though it's not precedential in the sense that it's only a trial court in Michigan. And of course, this

case is in Georgia. It doesn't have legal precedent, but it certainly is a spiritual precedent, in the sense that prosecutors now watch the crumbly case they know they may have to deal with a horrific school shooting in their jurisdiction, and it is likely a form of inspiration. It is proof that you can use a recklessness theory against a parent and convict them. And it's important to note that not all states have the same laws when it comes to securing firearms or locking

them up and keeping them away from children. That isn't necessary. This is a straight criminal recklessness statute. You could apply it to driving a car. You could apply it to owning a firearm. So prosecutors will not be limited so much by all these different statutes about keeping firearms locked up. If they can show that there was recklessness, that a risk was disregarded and it resulted in the death, they've got enough to go forward.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Can this also apply to your spouse? You know, it's like, oh, Adam, always, yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you could, you could go with this. I think this is a trend. It's going to happen. And I'm actually, I'm surprised the mom has who's a fentanyl or crackhead. I don't know what. Something's wrong with her. They should have been brought into the they're separated, so I guess I can. It's gonna be harder to prove, but the mom should have been

arrested too. Seems to me, this is just this. How about how my thoughts on this be began with a number of years ago, when when it was announced that somebody who did a shooting, a similar kind of shooting in Latvia or Lithuania or someplace like that, and they immediately arrested the parents. It wasn't even a second thought about it, I remember, and as soon as I heard audio, this has got it. This is obvious. Is what you do. It's an anti crime idea. How,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

how will that also apply to podcast partners? If you just go eventually,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

eventually, but it's years away. That's, I wouldn't worry about it. We're getting there. Okay. Now shooting any place you're the one to be shooting somewhat place up in your what I'm saying is, armed to the teeth in Texas,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you shouldn't worry about it. Is what you meant to say. Don't worry about it for now. Yeah, I should worry about it yet. Four more years, yet. Hang in there. Four more years. Boeing continues to be in the news, this time with the Starliner. It was

Unknown

just about midnight, Eastern Time, when starliners, three main shoots lit up in the night sky over New Mexico. Touchdown, Starliner is back on Earth, a 10 day mission that turned into a three month stay at the International Space Station. Coming to a partial conclusion, it's

great to have the Starliner home. A safe and successful landing was exactly what we wanted staying behind on the station astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sonny Williams, who this week, prepped their spaceship to return home empty. Of course, it's bittersweet to be packing up Starliner do the best we can to make sure she's in good shape. So we want her to have nice soft landing in the desert.

Starliner launched June 5 on a 10 day test flight, but helium leaks and engine thruster problems have kept Williams and Wilmore on the space station for 93 days, haunted by the Columbia disaster that killed seven astronauts, NASA decided not to

risk putting the crew back on Starliner. NASA has decided that Butch and Sunny will return with crew nine next February, that SpaceX crew nine mission will launch later this month, with two astronauts rather than four, Williams and will Moore will take the empty seats on return until then, running science experiments and doing cardio and strength exercise. Is during their extended stay on station, their 10 day mission now extended to eight months.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I There's a lot of great theories out there in the conspiracy circles about this event. My favorite house, I would like to hear a few. Oh, they're dead.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I think that's a bit much. Yeah, from

Adam CurryAdam Curry

their dead to they actually didn't go to space. They were down in the oceans, working on a different project, and they're trapped and they can't get out. There's a lot of great theories out there. Is

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that sounds like nothing, but fun. Yeah, I like it. I would like to know if there is, assume that these are all bull, bull crap, and they're not dead. They're stuck up there. They're going to come back with the with the Elon Musk device. The question that nobody's if I'm a journalist, I'm asking this question, how much are they getting paid? Are they getting overtime for being stuck in this because they're supposed to go up and come back, and there are test pilots

working for Boeing. How is Boeing paying them like a bonus, or because they don't seem to be complaining about it? Is they're up in this, in the in the space station, they seem to be running, you know, she's her hair is sticking out every which way, and having a good time.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You do in the fake space station, you make your hair if you, if you

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

were, if you were in the station and you were making hundreds of 1000s of dollars in overtime because enough to pay you 24/7, which means there's time and a half, double time, triple time, who knows what? Yeah, I'd be happy to they don't complain. So. But does anyone ask this question, and why don't they ask this question? Who? What compensation are they getting financially for being stuck up there? For the same

Adam CurryAdam Curry

reason, you're getting compensated as a podcaster, instead of a journalist with the mainstream

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

identify, make more money as a podcaster than I do, is the journalists don't make anything. Yeah, it just, it's a pathetic industry. Is a pathetic business, and most of the journalists, unless you're on network TV and you're making millions, which is a rare group, most of the writers are just starving to death,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

or they're the side hustles. As

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

another thing, the word side hustle bothers me.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I brought it up for you, just to get you riled up. I know that you hate that.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

It's like a hustle means you're scamming. To me, a Huss, I'm a hustler. I'm scamming somebody. So in other words, you're working for a living and you've got a side hustle, which means, to me, it means you're a criminal. It may, if you someone says, I got a side hustle and do it as a side hustle, I would say, then you're this is a criminal activity. That's only thing. That's my definition of it a hustle, all right. I mean, you don't have any pushback on me saying, No, you're foolish crap. No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm with you. I think you're absolutely right side hustle is, is a bad a bad term, I think so. Yeah, do you okay? What would you prefer to be called? So we can address this appropriate second

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

job. Second second job. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it is weekend gig. There you go. Now, Boeing has finally caught a break and not widely reported, so they've got to step up. The PR boys,

Unknown

the world's biggest airlines, is canceling dozens of flights over concerns about possible engine problems. Cathay Pacific is inspecting its entire fleet of Airbus A 350s after part of an engine failed on a flight from Hong Kong to Zurich, the plane was forced to return to Hong Kong and landed safely. Cathay Pacific says repair work is now underway across its entire fleet of a 350s CNN, Hannah's Yadi is on the story for us and Hannah Cathay Pacific now making repairs as it

inspects these models. How concerned should consumers and other airlines be at this point that this could be a wider issue? Speaking, it's unclear at this stage. I think the answer to that is that there are some concerns. And clearly several other airlines fly a 350s and have you know, engines that could have this issue. Qatar is among them, Etihad, British, airways,

Virgin, Atlantic. Rolls Royce, which is the engine maker that makes the engines on these planes, has said that it's keeping airlines fully informed of developments, but hasn't yet told airlines to stop flying the planes. As far as we understand, Rolls Royce hasn't commented on exactly what the issue is with

the engine. Reuters, citing people familiar with the matter, said it relates to a fuel nozzle, which experts say is generally less serious of a problem than the failure of a major rotating part of the plane, such as a turbine blade. But clearly this could be very. Disruptive for airlines, and certainly, as you alluded to in the beginning, it has been very disruptive for Cathay Pacific, which has had to cancel some 34 flights between Monday and Wednesday as it attends to this problem.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So not exactly an Airbus issue, but if I was Boeing, not at all. But if I was Boeing, I'd be out there saying, see their bus, no good, at least for the public, at least for the public. The public, you know, there's no attention to themselves, yeah, well, there's maybe they got enough problems with it, with the dead astronauts, I hear you. It's a real problem. And then this news, which is just not getting, really, not really, getting the attention it deserves. Here's the teaser. The

Unknown

FBI raided the homes of several New York City Mayor Eric Adams top deputies federal agencies electronic devices from the police commissioner, the school's chancellor and two deputy mayors. None of the officials have been charged with a crime. The raids come nearly a year after federal agencies the mayor's electronic devices in a federal corruption investigation involving alleged donations made by Turkish officials to his campaign. So when

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I first saw this report come through, I thought it was old and like, didn't that already happen? But this is a continuation, and ABC this morning had had more details, which kind of helps us a little bit in understanding what's happening. This seems like a lot of nepotism and all kinds of stuff going on here. The

Unknown

Queen's home of the city's Deputy Mayor of public safety, Philip banks sits quiet. Thursday afternoon, shutters drawn after the FBI conducted a search early Wednesday morning and the Hamilton heights home of the first deputy mayor Sheena Wright, another one of New York City Mayor Eric Adams closest aides and friends also raided by the FBI. Wright shares a home with her partner New York City Schools Chancellor David Banks,

Deputy Mayor banks brother. Sources say the FBI seized evidence, including electronics, as part of an ongoing investigation. Federal agents have previously raided the homes of several other associates of Mayor Adams, who even turned over his own electronic devices to the FBI last fall and received his own subpoena last month.

The fact that these subpoenas and documents have been seized the homes raid of people very close to the mayor should give everyone pause, but it's a long stretch between people around the mayor being subpoenaed and the mayor being in trouble. In a statement, the mayor's chief counsel said, quote, investigators have not indicated to us the mayor or his staff are targets of any investigation. As a former member of law enforcement, the mayor has repeatedly made clear that all

members of the team need to follow the law. A source says the searches do not appear to be related to the long running corruption investigation into whether Mayor Adams campaign accepted donations from Turkey in exchange for favors.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So this turkey thing is it keeps popping up. It's only really been the most recent reports that they're talking about it. I don't know what's going on. What I What is not mentioned, and I think your your no agenda show should mention, because it's unavoidable, is that all of those implicated are so called black people, as mo would say, or people of color.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

That's what he wouldn't say, No. He

Adam CurryAdam Curry

would say so called black people. Yeah, he

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

hates the term, of course, color.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But there's something to be said about that. In this case, this seems like a lot of nepotism going on in in New York, and I know from the the New York,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

wait a minute. Let's stop for a second, let me, let me. You step back, you say, and try to comprehend the notion that corruption exists in New York City.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I know what's going on. I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

don't know what to make of it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, but with Turkey, I mean, is that an Erdogan thing is, I mean, there's a

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

lot this is like. This reminds me of the I don't have a clip, but Kamala, they were talking about how she had collected $350 million in small donations over the last month, as opposed to Trump's 140 million old seems like a lot of money, no matter who gets it and how, but this small donations thing, which they then said was perfected by Obama, yeah, with Chinese, this is, yes, this is a scam of some sort, and it's a major one, but it's for it's like Saudi money or something

that's being laundered. Yeah, and comes in, filters in as small donations. And I can't say it's Saudi money in particular. Could be Chinese money, which I would be more it's probably more likely. Or it's just it's slick, though it's a very slick operation. There is no way that you're getting that kind of money for Kamala Harris out of the blue, because they. For so much I mean, just too much money. It's too much money,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

speaking of too much money, Elon Musk, I'm staying on the beat. You know, the reason why I am staying on the Elon beat, with his freedom of speech, is for this very simple and again, you disagree with me, and that's the way it should be. I just want to be the guy looking the other direction. You never know. Everyone's very enamored with x. Loves it. It's great. You you are. You are totally

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

a lot of people hate it. You're, you are, most journalists in the Bay Area, for example, who are all part of Bay age does something or other. Dot, mastodon. Dot, whatever. Yeah, yeah, social, dot, yes, dot, mastodon. Dot, mastodon. Yeah, it's, do I go there and I have an account on Mastodon social, and I use it to follow the journalists or in the Bay Area and elsewhere, yes. And they are the biggest haters of the of the dead bird, as they like to call it the dead bird

site. And it's just they go on and on and on their psychopaths. It's just like an embarrassment, right? But

Adam CurryAdam Curry

they're not doing the work. And I'm doing the work here, and, Oh, and here's, here's the reason I'm doing the work if, if a guy had 40,000 satellites circling the Earth, had a brain chip company was responsible for ushering in carbon credits and electric vehicles, and his name was Bill Gates, everybody would hate him. But now it's Elon. Oh, it's great. Then I, I'm not, I'm not all in on the brain chip. I, you know, I quite I love Starlink, but I question,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you have a Starlink account, if I'm not mistaken,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I do as well. I said, I don't. I love Star Starling. Well, I need it as a backup for the show. But I question, what can you do with it? What is it? You know, you

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

have to, you don't, you can use 5g

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, I have, I have that as a backup as well. I have two backups. Hello, this is an important show. I don't want to be taken off. I got a generate, got a Jenny, and I got me a Starlink and I got me a 5g so if there's ever a problem, the show will continue.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

No, but I would like us to use the 5g not the 5g but they start. I don't want to use it for the show, but I want to test it for the show to see that we see what the latency seems like. Todd, if it and if it's reasonable, I'll get get that as a second backup for myself. Well, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

can tell you right away you should Todd from blueberry. He does the new media show. He does video with with Rob. Now they always argue about his video podcasting, his YouTube podcast. So they argue about the same stuff over and over again. But Todd runs blueberry. He's Todd's a good guy. I'd like. He's been around. He's a knight. He's been around for a long time. He's part of the decentralized hosting

infrastructure that is podcasting. He has been using Starlink for his podcast to communicate with video through zoom, I think they use for the past couple of weeks. And it's the latency is almost undetectable.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, the guys up at the Canadians that we've both done their podcast,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, the

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

what's the name of their podcast? I've done it twice. We are horrible now, yeah, now we're, they're gonna be mad at us.

Unknown

But Great America. Great Merrick gray America, right? America? Use.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

One of the guys uses. Thank you. Thank you, sir. One of the guys uses the Starlink. And it's like, transparent, yeah, you couldn't tell the difference. Now,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I don't know how it would work with with Starlink on both ends, because that would have to introduce, I would like to test it. That has to introduce some latency. But anyway, if the it was building, it was Bill Gates, who I be, we all be suspicious. But now it's Elon Musk going like, oh, it's Tony Stark, okay, so, so I noticed that during during

yesterday's, was it yesterday? Yes, yesterday's Independence Day Rally for Brazil, there was a call from Bolsonaro and from other people on the ground to protest the lack of free speech in Brazil. And so, you know, there's a lot of videos out there. They may be from previous demonstrations. I don't know

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

if I saw that one. It looked like Mardi Gras to me. Yeah, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

don't know if it was 10s of 1000s or hundreds. I don't know. What I did see is, I saw a lot of free speech T shirts with X preprinted on it, which means someone has boots on the ground doing that. And I just have a couple of clips. I couldn't get anything from the mainstream US media, so I had to go to an old favorite, W, I O N,

Unknown

thank you for defending our freedom. Red banners and praise. Of x as hundreds of supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro hit streets. They demanded the dismissal of justice Alexandra de Morais, who last week ordered XP band in Brazil after the platform failed to comply with orders to block some accounts accused of spreading fake news. This after Bolsonaro urged Brazilians to avoid official Independence Day parades and instead join him in Sao Paulo. All right,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

so that doesn't really tell us anything. But what was interesting is that Michael schellenberger went to Brazil to specifically to make sure he protested the freedom of speech in Brazil. Now, Shellenberger, what? Oh, yeah.

Unknown

Oh please. Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you remember schellenberger was part of the Westminster declaration.

Unknown

You remember this?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Oh yeah. That

Adam CurryAdam Curry

was that whole long list of Taibbi Shellenberger, Jonathan Haidt, Steven Pinker, usual suspects, all the usual suspects. And we found this to be very sketchy by itself. In fact, as I'm reading through it, at least as I'm reading through it again, the Westminster declaration says the legislature in Germany and the Supreme Court in Brazil are criminalizing political speech. So I'm still thinking that there's something going on with Brazil that that a group of people wants to change.

And schellenberger actually gave me some information, and then one of our outstanding producers came back with something that fits in with it. So there's a huge population

Unknown

in Brazil. I imagine there's a lot of strong feelings. Tell me about the protest tomorrow. What to expect? Well, so it's independent This is Brazil's independence day. Tomorrow, there's going to be a huge protest demanding the impeachment of this Supreme Court Justice named Ali Sanchez Morice, demanding that the president of the Brazilian

Senate, Rodrigo Pacheco, start impeachment proceedings. The number of senators supporting impeachment has been growing by the day, and you're starting to now see people, you know, newspapers that have been advocating for more censorship online say, Hey, this is too much. This is really outrageous. This is the kind of censorship that they saw during the

dictatorship in Brazil. So we're expecting to see hundreds of 1000s of people on the streets tomorrow demanding free speech, which is guaranteed in the Brazilian Constitution.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Ah, it's guaranteed in the Brazilian Constitution. Yes. And one of our producers, Jose, checked in and said, Yes, Brazil, Article Five, part four, the expression of thought is free, but there's a little extra part there, and anonymity is forbidden. Wouldn't that be interesting if Elon Musk could have everybody say whatever they wanted on X but you couldn't do it anonymously. This is something I've been tracking with him for a long time. How many people have played paid for

the check mark? Once you pay, you're no longer anonymous. I think that this could come come here as well. I've been saying this for a long time.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

A lot of people have been advocating for it. Yeah, of

Adam CurryAdam Curry

course they are. They want it, but and this just the final thoughts, just so you

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

can identify your enemy. Well,

Unknown

yes, the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what came to mind is, what?

Unknown

What group

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is probably the greatest risk to the US dollar?

Unknown

What group

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

is the greatest Well, the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

greatest threat, greatest threat. What What group poses the greatest threat to the US dollar.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, I would say, I would say this, the bricks for one

Adam CurryAdam Curry

exactly the bricks, Brazil, India, Russia, China, we already have Africa. Well, yes. And then Saudi Arabia is in there, and Egypt is in there, yeah, but

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the part of the bricks nomenclature, the S stands for South Africa, yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

but Brazil is right at the front. I think, I think there's groups, maybe within our US, government and and typical to use Elon, because they use them for everything else who want to bring the bricks to heel.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, that's, I think we've come to that conclusion sometime back, right? But you can use this. These guys out there doing what they're trying to do. It's like ridiculous. Well, put up with this. You

Adam CurryAdam Curry

can use this as a wedge issue. Bring in the republican from Florida.

Unknown

Let's get right to Congresswoman Maria Salazar, the congresswoman serves on House Foreign Affairs. House Foreign Affairs. Congressman, Salazar fled communism in Cuba with her family. It's great to have you on. Wonderful to see you again. Congresswoman, your reaction to Brazil banning Twitter? Oh, very worrisome. And you know, where else up? Twitter has been banned Iran and North Korea and China and Russia and Venezuela and now in Brazil, the most important economy in the Western

Hemisphere after the United States. How embarrassing and how worrisome. And why? Because Elon Musk is a Freedom Force that they want to become socialist more and more. You have to remember that the president of Brazil, Lula, was in jail for two years. He was convicted to 12 years for corruption and money laundering.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Freedom Force, yep, I have no conclusion to this, but I'm just saying there's forces, and is not a Freedom Force is at work to do something with Brazil, just keeping my eye on it.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, I I'm not going to dissuade you from continuing this thread. Yes, but I Yes. BRICS is an issue that has to be dealt with because we cannot afford to lose our reserve currency status. Otherwise we would, the country would be bankrupt. We'd be done,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah? So, you know, it's one thing to have the NFL there. It's another thing to to have them messing with our currency. And this, this, this guy's no good, Lula's no good. You know,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Lula is no good, yeah? So, you know, now he's a socialist. The Brazilians bring these guys back and forth. It's ridiculous. Another Yeah. I mean, every country, modern country, has been doing this. We saw it. We see it in France with the left wanting to take over the place and turn it to an international operation. And Spain is always voting communists in left and right. And they get good. Oh, they have

issues, yeah. And it just is a, this is a somebody, I forget it was Kennedy or somebody says, you know, why don't we just let the communists have their own party here in this country so we can at least identify, did Kennedy say that? RFK, Kennedy was one, yeah. RFK, Jr, that's funny. It would. It may have not been him, but my voice is going because I'm talking about him. Yeah, it was somebody who, who's important person, that had this

logical conclusion. And I kind of agree with that should have a communist. You have a communist on the ticket, you know, yeah, communist. And if you vote for him, you're an idiot, but at least you can identify that they're there, and you can see who voted for him. Not that it used to be spying on the public. But, oh no, I have a funny this is my voice is great. I haven't I do have to play this Alex Jones clip just as kind of an inside goodness.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, so Alex, sorry, yeah, yeah, don't

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

play yet. Alex Jones was talking about this latest thing going on, friend of the show. He is a friend of the show. I like Alex Jones material generally, but he, you know, he does, and he is very good about the last election and calling people out who thought there was micro dots on the ballots.

Unknown

Uh. Thanks,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

pal. Remember,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

remember, it was buchanic that was on his show that was making this session. That's where it all started, literally laughing at him on the show. So, uh, Alex has been picked up on Eric Weinstein's latest thing, and he's got some background information about the self replicating nanobots that are in the shot, and it's killing your immune system. It went on, I have no clips of that, yeah, because it was like, this, such a sketchy assertion. Well, it came just,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it came from a paper which was written by someone who was not schooled in this particular area. I think it's been debunked by now.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, it's a good topic of conversation for Alex and his show. But meanwhile, he does a segment where he takes letters to the editor go and he just reads them, and he then he follows up. And so somebody wrote into him about his scream and how it come. He's not using it much anymore, where he screams. And so he does scream for the guy, but there was a lot of background information, which I think we can all anticipate before he does his scream. And this is nothing more than Alex

explaining his lousy his crazy sounding voice. And then he to make it matters worse, he does his scream into the microphone

Unknown

first. I never took acting lessons or voice lessons. I've screamed and yelled a lot, even without a bullhorn. And so I've got stuff on my larynx, uh, polyps. I've been to an ear, nose and eye doctor a couple times, and they said, well, it'll take six weeks.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Is it Ear, Nose and Throat? Doctor, yeah,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yes, it is.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Eye doctor, oh,

Unknown

I've been to an ear, nose and eye doctor a couple times, and they said, well, it'll take six weeks. You can't really talk. You can take those polyps off, and you won't sound like you're an 80 year old man. Smoke cigarettes, drinks whiskey, but I just haven't done. And it's kind of signature, so I'm leaving it there. I may have to do it at some point if I keep screaming, because it's getting worse. But I used to scream so loud out of demonstrations and stuff that

I'd cough up blood, no, a few times. So I like to do it. I usually do it when I actually feel like doing it, but I'm excited about it. You know, the country, the world waking up. So let me fire it up and do it. That's a little one for you.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And you got great pleasure from this.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I did. It's like he made said scream, and I realized it's just, it's just a, it's, it's a, it's a shtick with him. But he is blowing out his vulgar. Of course, there's no doubt about and then he doesn't scream again. He should stop.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I have two quick clips that'll be it for me for our broadcast day. But of course, we have a great end of show mixes, and we have the tip of the day coming up. So you want to wait for that. This is the M 5m the legacy media catching up to your no agenda show, which has been on this beat for, I think, at least six months. Rob

Unknown

a West Suburban woman is talking to the i team about how she sent almost $1 million to a scammer. And she's not alone. The FBI estimates the scam known as pig butchering, cost Americans nearly $4 billion last year alone. Think

Adam CurryAdam Curry

of all the money people could have saved if they were listening to the no agenda show. We have warned people for this. We have explained how it works. Even the name pig butchering, and yet, $4 billion is gone. It's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

unbelievable, yeah. And the thing is, the FBI. I mean, where are where is it? Where is Elizabeth Warren? Where's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Warren? Where's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Warren? Elizabeth Warren and Rachel complain about Rachel, and I still get calls. I get them once. I'm getting now, mostly almost one after another is the oh, you've been paying too much for your utility bill. You, you've overpaid you. We want to give you a bunch of money and and discount your utility bill by 35% press one to do for this offer. And of course, I take it literally and press one and hang up, yeah, because they're only asking me to press one, they're not asking

me to hang on the line. I have hung on the line a couple times some some guy with a very thick bomb bay accent trying to convince me that the local utility bill. I did. I just had to give him my bank account

Adam CurryAdam Curry

cleared right up. But I got, actually, I got a call yesterday while here from a 512, area code, which is Texas, Austin and and the minute I heard it, I was like, oh, because, yes, this is Sheriff's Office. Like, Oh, okay. And I hung up, and it was, you remember that scam that they pulled me into, tried to pull me into the sheriff's office, and then I told you about this? Do you remember? Yeah, well, I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

don't remember. It was,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it was very convincing. They had police radio gone in the background. Were transferring you, and then, well, there's a warrant out for your arrest because you didn't show up as a was the as a the stuff you've as a witness, a specialist witness. What do you call it? You've been the expert witness, expert witness. Thank you, expert witness. And because you had signed that you would appear now you have to come down

to the station, and you have to pay a fine. It's three and a half $1,000 and it was, it was sophisticated, wow, they

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

had me going five. I have not heard this one.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, they had me going for a bit. And I'm like, you know, I think I'm gonna call my lawyer. No, you can't hang up. You have, we have a had another term like, stay. Oh, there's, there's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

your giveaway. Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

they wanted me to go to a kiosk and deposit the money, like, Okay, gotcha. Oh

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

yeah, that's, that's that makes sense, gifts or get a gift card for what? But

Adam CurryAdam Curry

what I'm gonna do is, when I, when we get home, uh, tomorrow, I'm going to call them back and then pretend that I fell for it. I'm gonna record it, see if I can get them to go all the way through. They will not pick

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

up the phone.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

The first time they actually left a message at 7:59am and I didn't take it because walking the dog, and I called him back and they picked up. So I might get lucky. Mike, you might

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

get lucky. But I've had very little luck with this. Yeah, the most recent one. I did have one of these the second time. This is the second time it happened. I pick up the phone and the voice on the other end goes, grandpa.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, grandpa, yeah.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

And I didn't, well, I've had this call before, and this guy, I told, I just told this guy off. I said, What? What du believe? Anything you have to say. And hung up on him. I didn't have time for the call because I was doing clips. Oh, man, I've had the call before. I don't have the, yes, I have to record these space. If I ever get one of these again, I'll try. Had to record it. But the I did go through it with what the first guy and the guest is, grandpa. And I said, Yeah, who

is this? Theodore. Theodore? He never, no, they never get they don't have a name. They don't have that tiny it could be Theodore. Yeah. Well, Theodore is like, nine or eight, yeah. And you're like, you're like, 50, oh, okay, and so it does. The voices are no good. They don't. They don't using kids voices. Well, they do. They're not using, I mean, voice augmentation. Well, it just doesn't work. I don't see anyone can fall for this crowd. You know, these days,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

all the Tina and the girls they have, they have special code words in case someone calls with a Hey, Mom, I'm in trouble. And they use AI to simulate the voice, which has happened, or at least has been warnings about it, supposedly, supposedly, you know, there's there's one. This is my, my last clip. There's one other trend, which has been going on for a while, but I never really paid much attention to it, mainly

because I don't have an iPhone. I haven't had an iPhone since Apple screwed up USB on the Max and I got rid of all my Apple products. You've never had an iPhone, as far as I know. You don't have a phone. You have a you have some kind of China phone, yeah, in the desk drawer an Android. It's an Android. You don't have an iPhone. Yeah, of course it is. So one of the features, by

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

the way, stop, I'm not dead set against these phone. And I will say the foldable Samsung phone looks very appealing that, you know, it's pretty and small, it's dynamite. Yeah, but continue, yeah. But

Adam CurryAdam Curry

sorry, you know, it's $1,800 for that phone. Yeah, no, forget. It Not gonna happen. And we had the the Zoomer at at the house for 12 weeks. She's back now. She's back in New York. She's healed. Everything went well. Thank you for asking. And the I noticed there is, there's a trend that's been going on for a long time. I just never really noticed it, of location sharing. And I found a clip. Actually, someone sent me

this clip from Tiktok. It's obviously a setup. So it's not like, Oh, this is a real Zoomer. You know, this is pretend, but it does show you just a I find it to be a very disturbing, lonely trend. Sorry, I'm late. There's

Unknown

literally so much traffic? Oh, that's interesting, because I was tracking your location and you only left your house 10 minutes ago. Wait, you have my location? Yeah, remember you shared it with me six months ago when we were at that concert. No, oh, my god, do you know if Kelly's back with her ex? Because, like, I was tracking her on Find My Friends last night, and she was in Brentwood, which is, like, where her ex lives. And also, I have her ex's location too, and they

were together. What are you watching? I'm watching Find My Friends. People are being crazy today. They're like, bobbing all around the city. Sabrina flaked on dinner last week. She said she didn't feel well. And I was like, well, that's odd, because your location says you're at a different house. Find My Friends more like, find the people who betrayed me. Do you just watch that all day? I just like, love. Find My Friends, because it makes me feel close. Like, to my friends. You know what I mean?

Like, I find my friends. In their locations where they currently are. Kelly, where are you going? Girl, you're being insane today. It's kind of like an invasion of privacy, don't you think? No girl, don't go in there. No one I saw on my boss's location that he was at a bar last night, which is like, okay, weeknight drinking. Wait, you have your boss's location. Yeah, yeah. I turned it on when I was on his phone. Does he know that? He doesn't. He might not, not know that

Adam CurryAdam Curry

this is disturbing, this Find My Friends, track their location, and it's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

really I thought this was a an idea that I cropped up. I remember writing about it, and I think it was in

PC Magazine. May have been before that, when I was an info world, even where this idea had cropped up in Europe, it was called something else, but you could track your friends, and it was so, oh, yeah, this is great, because you can meet at the bar and he's no look at they're at the same area, you know, here in Amsterdam, this is a European product originally, and I always thought it was just a stalkers delight, and I never thought it

would ever become legal, because I think it should be illegal. But, yeah, it doesn't. This does not surprise me.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, I just it's like, what? What is that about? What? What? What is happening to people? They find it's so necessary to share location with each other, so you can see where your Is that like the most intimate type of friendship we have these days, I'm really good friends with her. I'm sharing my location. Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, this is, uh disturbing. As far as I can tell, both of us have one ISO each, hmm, which does not bode well unless bodes well to me, you got a killer, then I'll go first. Here's, I

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

don't have a no, just if I don't care. What

Adam CurryAdam Curry

do you mean? You don't care?

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

I mean, both of these are probably usable. I don't like

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, here we go. That's so

freaking unsafe. Says, What's

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

that got to do with anything?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Nothing. Let me try yours

one day. It all makes sense. Wow. They're both horrible.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Well, use one of the backups from one of the previous shows. Last show, for example, has a bunch it had a bunch of good ones. How

Adam CurryAdam Curry

about this one? Yeah,

Unknown

it is big. How

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

about that? Okay, fine.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You sound so mad, bro. Hey everybody. It's time for our end of show. Tip of the Day. It's John's corner, JC,

Unknown

and sometimes Adam,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

yeah, tip of the day time. We're all excited to hear what you've got lined up for us, John, what is your tip of the day? All

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

right? Well, these things cost about 12 bucks or so, and this is a recommended dog walk. If people with dogs, would you have a dog that's medium sized or a big dog? We usually have a big dog in our family somewhere. I mean, he's got a fee Fila brasilio, which is a huge, powerful dog. I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

got a big dog. I got a big dog.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Is that a big dog, really?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Phoebe. Phoebe, she was 120 we got her down. Oh,

Unknown

that's a big dog, 99 but no,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

she was big dog. Then

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you need this, okay, it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

a tip. I'm excited.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

You want a and you can look it up. They have mid Amazon. There's a couple of brands there, but you look it up, a bungee dog leash. The bungee dog leash, if you have a big dog, or even a medium sized dog, if they lunge at something you don't, doesn't pull your sock, your arm out of your you know, your shoulder out of your socket. Yeah, it it absorbs the

initial lurch that a dog will do and brings it back. You know, to normal, the bungee dog leash is one of the greatest products that if you have a dog walking leash, get one of these things, you'll never regret it. It's a fabulous product. Now,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

how, how far out does it? Does it extend? Well, they

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

have a six foot. What about a couple feet, hmm. I mean, it's not like the dog can go to somebody's throat, because I have

Adam CurryAdam Curry

one of those that has a, like, a reel in it. So, yeah, those

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

are no good.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

You want the bungee dog? Okay, all right. Well, you know, this might be for Tina, because when she's walking the dog, our dog has some PTSD because, you know, she's a rescue from her tree line.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Tina will thank me profusely for this recommendation of the bungee dog.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I like it well, and I will have her send you a personal note if she is that happy with the product.

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Yeah, and they're not expensive. So, all right, there it is, everybody,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

your tip of the day. Holy, handy ideas, Batman,

Unknown

Adam CurryAdam Curry

right, everybody, thank you very much for being with us once again, coming to you from the cruise ship, capital of Mexico, just north of Puerto Vallarta. Are

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

you? Are there cruise ships out there that you can see? Nope, nope. Well, some capital,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

David keckka checks in as usual. The guy is always checking in. Really appreciate that, David. We could use more end of show mixes. So I rolled out a classic, which is sir. Chris, sir. Chris Wilson would then. Alessi brothers spoof of O Laurie, it is O Elon. So I'm sure you will enjoy that,

although John doesn't like the key that it's sung in. Coming to you over the last time here from Mexico, I'll be back on Thursday from home base in the morning. Everybody. I'm Adam curry,

John C DvorakJohn C Dvorak

Adam CurryAdam Curry

return on Thursday. Please join us for another three hours of media deconstruction and remember us at no agenda donations.com Until then, adios mofo is a hooey, hooey and such. I

certainly see a position where the world's gonna have to come together and create some rules around social media platforms. And I think that's quite, quite what the answer is and what the right system of regulation is, I'm not sure, but I'm sure there should be, because hostility and hatred. But I think we can't travel as we are. And I think the impact on young people, particularly when they got access to mobile phones, very young, and they're reading a lot of stuff and receiving a lot of stuff.

Brazilian government and Elon Musk have been in a feud. It began when a Brazilian judge Alexandra de Morales ordered regulators to ban access the social media platform X after Musk refused to appoint a legal representative in the country. Millions of people in Brazil no longer have access to X. Used to be known as Twitter. Brazil's Supreme Court blocked the social media platform over the weekend after owner Elon Musk refused court orders, including one to name a representative in the

country. People who do have access to x by VPN, they can face 1000s of dollars in fines. Musk and a top justice on Brazil's high court have been feuding for months over disinformation on the platform. I'd like to keep my check mark. It's about my if after all those years of patriarchy, oh Obama. Look, here's the thing, Twitter

shouldn't be just left wing. I like to hide my racist views from you with a handle that LARP so I can remain anonymous and Hound those snarky snarks posting peppy means and playing both extremes. My kill alive puppy on Twitter spaces. You go to trow is truly on blue, and those fingers are reeling. Jump out of the future, which husband are you? A Mayan band now, after tweeting big, massive dumps to Dunn Junior, after all, my old accounts are uncovered, we love all you wanna do is

authenticate the groom. You can tell it's real because it looks so fake, so fake, so fake. You go to troll. It's truly on blue, and those sphincters are reeling when he has a vision for Mars. It's the right vision. And I think he can articulate something really compelling, and I don't understand half of what he's saying. We'll make this guy saying. I'm like this guy knows

what he's talking about. When he talks about moving equipment into the atmosphere for less money, using reusable rockets, when he talks about electric vehicles, he has absolutely no vision here other than First Amendment blather. None of it makes any sense. What does he want to kill a live puppy on Twitter spaces? What is he talking about? A kill a lime puppy. Don't shout out of the future. Which husband are you so fake you

can tell it's real. Your goal to travel is truly on the land the sphincters are reeling so.
