1727 - "Sideshow Bob"

No kissing. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Sunday, January 5th, 2025. This is your award-winning Gilmore Nation Media Assassination Episode 1727. This is no agenda. Wearing shades for the glues in. Broadcasting live from the heart of the Cheshire country here in FEMA Region No. 6. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're fighting anti-gravity machines. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill. In the morning.

I think the exact term was gravitic. It was gravisomethingorother. Anti-gravitic machine, yeah. Oh man, I spent some time on this because I noticed that everyone's going crazy. And by the way, I expected you to so I did nothing. I know, I saw like, wait a minute, John has absolutely zero on any of this. Okay. No, no, you have a backgrounder for the Vegas guy, which I'll call for that in a moment. Yes, the backgrounder. We'll do that in a minute.

By the way, the backgrounder I think really sums it up well. No, no, but I want to start with New Orleans because everyone's kind of gone off to the anti-gravitic. I'm sure that's not intentional at all. I love it. Before you go on and you start anything, I will say this. Yeah. That for, I don't know, way before we started doing this show, we had a guy on Silicon Spin once who was busted for something or other. And he quit his, he was a famous online guy. And this was in like 96.

I don't remember who it is. I'm already disappointed. No, I could look him up, but he's 97. He was very kind of semi-famous and he quit his company because he'd seen Aliens. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. Was that the guy who later became the Purple Tracksuit Clan? I don't know. Maybe. No, no, that Purple Tracksuit guy is different. That was an old guy. That was another good one. And so this guy, and I grilled him about it. I said, you actually, what, after, not during the show, but afterwards.

And he said, well, he was kind of in a dream state when he saw the Aliens and all the rest of it. But he did have one thing he was absolutely convinced of. And then I've heard this since then, over, and I probably heard it before then, over and over and over again, is that they've got the anti-gravity technology and it's coming out next week. They're going to reveal it next week. This has been decades now. And the anti-gravity stuff, yeah. No, no, no, no, don't kid yourself, John.

I know, I know. Next week. I mean, I was all on that tip for about 10 years on this show. And then I gave up on it because even I couldn't last anymore. Where is it? And that was known as second half of show. So we'll bring in a little bit of second half of show at the start of this show. Because this is just, everyone's going off the rails on this. And there's a number of things that need to be deconstructed and need to be evaluated as to what is really happening.

And I need to say, everything that is going on right now is related to the new administration and also confirmation hearings. And we'll start with New Orleans. It was right on schedule as a six -week cycle. I am pretty convinced that the narrative was written right away for us, even though that's not exactly what happened. And we know the FBI has a six -week cycle. They've always employed this in order to assure funding.

Now, I believe they deployed a six-week cycle event, which usually exists of the FBI confidential informants, people talking to somebody, usually some brother who's already a little bit weak. Maybe he's changed his meds. And then all of a sudden, it's like, well, you're ISIS now. And here's some bombs and coolers or something like that. So let's start with, we have a little more information than we had. First of all, it's, of course, horrible.

It's unclear if it's 14 or 15 people died from this guy driving an F-150 Lightning, the EV truck, which is completely, I think that's just a happy coincidence. That a lot of people just, oh, that's so cool. We didn't even plan that, guys. Good work. But here's… There's one other element to this, is that this guy and also the Vegas guy, they rented from this online… Turo. Turo. And nobody talks about this. Turo doesn't have cars. No, you rent from somebody else. It's an Airbnb.

You're using somebody else's car. No one has ever discussed… I'm sorry. That was a lot of the discussion early on until, you know, other stuff started popping up. I never heard who the owner of that Tesla car was. I mean… No, we don't know that. We don't know that. We just know they were from the same app. No, I know that. Yeah, but I know, but it seems to me that the guy who owned the Cybertruck more than the Lightning… Ah, yes. Now you make a good point. That poor bastard?

Yeah, does Turo insure you for that? Do you get a new Cybertruck? And does anybody talk to these people and say, hey, what do you think about your truck? Why do that? Too much journalism involved. You actually have to track the guy down and ask him, how do you feel about your truck being blowed up by some maniac? Are you going to use this service anymore? I mean, it seems to me that's the first thing I'd ask. Excellent point. You're right. Excellent point.

I've not seen any reporting on that angle, other than I think it's a China-based app. I could be wrong. They're not running through China, but it could be. Who knows? Who knows? They don't tell us anything. So, I wish I could show you visuals with this. It's a rather short clip, but at least we'll get a little background on what this guy was actually doing.

On that deadly attack in New Orleans in the French Quarter tonight, the FBI has put out new images of the suspect just hours before the attack. He is seen placing coolers containing explosive devices along Bourbon Street. Now, while Bourbon Street is reopened tonight, there are new security bollards in place. Also, we have learned new details about the victims that the suspect ran down early on New Year's Day.

And breaking tonight, ABC News has just learned that the FBI and Department of Homeland Security are warning of potential copycat attacks using vehicles to inflict mass casualties. They are warning—it is a warning, rather, that has been sent to the nation's 18,000 law enforcement agencies. The warning set out as out of an abundance of caution. All right. So, it's always good to add a little breaking news, breaking news, copycats.

Now, what you saw—what you didn't see, of course, in this video from this report is you see the guy. He's in completely different clothes. So, apparently, he changed clothes into camos before he got into the truck. But he already placed these coolers in different parts of the French Quarter. We're just going to presume it was mainly on Bourbon Street, but we don't even know that. And so, the guy was planning to blow stuff up. So, let's take it all into account here. We've got the coolers.

We've got his ISIS flag. You know, the whole thing is pretty well set up. It's all the elements that they really love over there at the FBI for this type of operation. But then you see video of this guy driving down Bourbon Street. But what you don't see is him trying to hit people. You see him in a straight line. People are jumping out of the way. If he wanted to hit people, he would have swerved a little bit, and he could have gotten an extra five body count.

Yeah, he could have gotten that poor redhead. You saw it. Exactly. Yeah, that showed her a million times. And by the way, why wasn't she interviewed? Please. Please. Okay. Why does this show even exist? You're right. If all the things I complained about actually worked, we wouldn't be doing this show because these guys wouldn't be screwing up their jobs. So, it's very apparent that the guy was intending to detonate these coolers. We have not heard anything about the explosives.

We don't know if they actually worked or, you know, we just don't know anything about them. There's no reporting on that. But then to top it all off, to top it off, we get a New York Post reporter walking right into his apartment in, I think, Houston. And the door's busted down, and she's walking in in her yoga pants. A very bizarre scene this is. And the whole place, it's just, it's kind of left intact. Listen to this. We are here inside the New Orleans terrorist's home.

You can see that it's been clearly destroyed, the door at least, from the FBI raid yesterday. But if we walk through the home, we see some signs of what he was up to. He had this work area here. Lots of different chemicals. You literally see work benches with chemicals. Yes. I mean, the whole thing. I know. I want to give you credit for this. This is the only, if I was going to get a clip, this is the clip I'd get because there's one anomaly in this clip. Mm-hmm.

And the clip is, well, you probably saw another one. Well, yeah. Well, no, we'll play it, and then you'll tell me what you saw as the anomaly. And different electronics. This is, again, a work setup. Left receipts. Just very unkempt in here. If we go over here, actually, you can see the Department of Justice documents here, the search warrant, and the property that they recorded here, which seems to be a lot of chemicals.

So, literally, there on the kitchen island are two documents neatly placed with the search warrant and an entire list of everything they found, but apparently didn't take. Everything is just there. And she can just walk right in. This, to me, means that this was all meant to be discovered, meant to be found, and clearly this was supposed to be a bomb scare, and it went wrong, as often does. Maybe this guy got spooked.

He thought something different was happening, so he hangs a right under Bourbon Street. I don't think he was intending to mow down anybody at all, but he just wanted to get out of there. Something went awry, and he decided to hoof it and made that screeching right hand turn. I don't think he was intending to mow people down, as has been constantly reported. They're not talking about the bombs. They're only talking about mowing people down, breaking news, mowing people down.

What was the anomaly you saw? At the beginning of it, this was the rental place he had in New Orleans. Oh, I thought it was the one he had in Houston. That's what I thought, too, but if you listen to the very beginning of her clip, she says this is the place in New Orleans. Let me listen. I'm not so sure about that. We're here inside the New Orleans terrorist home. No, she says the New Orleans terrorist home. I think it was in Houston. Okay, okay.

In other words, what you're saying, which is probably right, because it's the only thing that makes sense, we're in the New Orleans terrorist home in Houston. She never says that. Well, at the end, she does talk about him leaving. Yeah, he left, and that was the anomaly. When she left, she says, well, now he's headed to New Orleans to get a place. So, okay, the whole thing is very phony. It's all staged. It's phony.

It's completely phony, yes, and it went wrong, horribly wrong, and maybe John Kennedy will stay on top of it, maybe not. And by the way, where's the tape? Where's the crime scene tape? She wanders in, the door's wide open, nobody's fixed the door. Exactly. The thing is, it's bullcrap. And Kennedy's full of crap, too. He's probably read in. He almost seems like he is. We got a note from one of our law enforcement officers. Boots on the ground. We shall share, and then we'll move on.

I'm a law enforcement officer in a large city in the southeast with 10-plus years of L.E. experience. I'm also an FBI task force officer, so I have access to some, in parents, top -secret FBI resources and information. Most of the work I do is related to criminal gangs. This producer, by the way, is known to us, and I trust him. Just got off a conference call with the FBI that was open to partner law enforcement agencies. There were about 5,000 law enforcement on the call.

The call opened with FBI Director Chris Wray and Secretary of Homeland Security Mayorkas. The call then went on to the FBI Counterterrorism Director to provide details and updates on the investigation in New Orleans and Las Vegas. Now, remember, you just heard breaking news, copycats. Here are some takeaways from the call. Everyone was adamant that each incident was a solo undertaking, i.e., Lone Wolf. Adamant about that. Okay. The news is barely starting to report that.

Livelsberger was an active-duty soldier on leave from his unit in Germany. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head prior to the Cybertruck explosion. U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Division, CID, is part of this investigation since one attacker was an active-duty soldier. Din Jabbar had ties in Texas and Georgia to those local field officers, and they're doing background work there. Now, read that again.

Din Jabbar had ties in Texas and Georgia to those local field officers, and they're doing work there. I'm not quite sure what that means, but I'm still pretty convinced they were jacking this guy up. No connection between the two incidents, according to the presenters on the conference call. As expected, all directors and leaders highlighted the need for future funding. To ensure several future upcoming public events, Mardi Gras, the Super Bowl, etc., were well-funded.

That's the whole point of a six-week cycle. There was very little discussion on ISIS or other terror groups being propagators of these attacks. That's interesting because the news is saying something different. A lot of discussion about copycat attacks, but there are no credible threats. Well, that's kind of the opposite of what we just heard. Some personal insights from myself. I would be very aware of what is going on around you. Be cautious in large public gatherings.

Always have a plan of escape. Set up prearranged meeting places in case something happens while you're out. Whether these were genuine terrorist attacks or six -week cycles gone awry, we will probably never know. But innocent people were hurt, and I never want that for any of the NOAA gender producers. Okay. So then we go to what the mainstream news is doing. And this was CNN, and they brought on this amazing guy. His name is, let me see, Donald Harvin.

Donald Harvin, Homeland Security and Public Health Emergency Subject Matter Expert. Serves as faculty in Georgetown University's Emergency and Disaster Management Master's Program and Applied Intelligent Master's Program. This guy is Denzel Washington with a real job. Homeland Security Analyst. He's a spokeshole on behalf of the intelligence community. And he's going to send us down the ISIS road because we can't let anyone know that this was botched.

I also think that ISIS, and al-Qaeda to a lesser extent, but mostly ISIS, appeals so much more. They have so much more outreach. And if you're downtrodden, and I've consumed their products for over ten years, I have to dissect them. I have to train individuals on them. They're very appealing to many people who are downtrodden, who are very angry at individuals. They're psychologically geared towards individuals who are on the margins or in extremes of our population.

When you say it's psychological, when you say it's appealing, I mean, how? Can you, like, what's the detail there? They have a little bit of something for everybody. You've probably heard Director Wray over the last few years talk about the salad bar ideology. Oh, not heard about that, but I like it. Yeah, I haven't heard that either. Salad bar ideology, I'm all in on it. It doesn't matter how you show up to the salad bar. There's a little something there for everyone.

So if you're a black nationalist, right, and you don't like police beatings, they have products for you. ISIS does. We have products. They've got products. Exactly what he's referring to. They've got products. Absolutely. Absolutely. We've seen our white nationalists, our far-right extremists. They have something for them as well. They have something for a little bit of everybody.

And, you know, we saw for the very first time, I think it was 2018, we had a suicide bomber in the Middle East who came from Florida, middle-class family, gated community. He'd left the U.S., burned his passport, and went out there to join ISIS. He said he didn't like his life, and, you know, they offered something to him. So they do this. There's an appeal that they have for women. We've seen young women leave the United States and travel to join ISIS.

And so they're very effective in their communication. So the narrative is being set here for ISIS. Now I want to read a tweet. Can I add a comment? Yeah, sure. American passports are extremely valuable. Yeah. If you're going to be one of these guys, you don't burn your passport. You don't burn it. You just threw away $1,000. It's dumb. So now we have our other agencies. We have the CIA. Now, remember, the CIA and the intelligence community does not want Tulsi Gabbard. They don't. The military.

Now, somehow our military is very broken. We identified this with the grid is going down, all of it coming out of kind of the corner of DIA. Certainly General Flynn flowing through to all the way to what's her name? Naomi Wolf, whose husband is ex-DIA. Laura Logan, whose husband is ex-DIA. And so she, Laura Logan posts on ex.

I learned months ago from multiple U.S. intel sources that the CIA was urging their friends in the Taliban and Haqqani terror network to use their sleeper cells inside the U .S. for an attack that would be blamed on ISIS. So I am very skeptical. It is too easy to blame ISIS. They do it. So do we now have a continuation of CIA versus DIA? I'm not entirely sure. But the military definitely is the outfit that does psychological operations. That's kind of the same everywhere.

The military is specialized in that. CIA, they go out, they clear the decks, they help with color revolutions. They get ready for the military to come in. So now we need to move over to Vegas. Before we do that, I'm going to play your PBS wrap on the Vegas Cybertrucker. The soldier who took his life outside of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas said he was trying to draw attention to the country's problems.

Investigators said they recovered a note from a phone inside the burned out Cybertruck he detonated in which Matthew Livalsberger wrote that his actions were not a terrorist attack. Rather, quote, it was a wake up call. Americans only pay attention to spectacles and violence. What better way to get my point across than a stunt with fireworks and explosives?

An FBI investigator said today they do not believe that Livalsberger harbored any malice toward President -elect Trump and that he suffered trauma from his service. And although this incident is more public and more sensational than usual, it ultimately appears to be a tragic case of suicide involving a heavily decorated combat veteran who is struggling with PTSD and other issues.

Pentagon officials have not said whether Livalsberger had been suffering from mental health issues, but have turned over his medical records to police. Seven people were injured in the blast, none of them seriously. So what is interesting about your clip is you actually got the real so-called real manifesto, which was not the one being discussed online. The one being discussed predominantly on the Sean Ryan podcast and thus everywhere. That was the anti-gravitic memo.

And I have to say that I'm even questioning if these cars were rented through the Turo app. Maybe that was just put out there to connect these two. Because everybody moved very quickly from New Orleans. Okay, well, that's New Orleans. But this guy, this is what we got to be talking about, this cyber truck. Did he blow his head off with an Eagle 50 caliber? What was going on? Anti-gravity. Everybody was honed in on this. And so we get an emergency broadcast from Sean Ryan.

Now, Sean Ryan, military guy. I'm not going to say Sean Ryan is in on anything, but just like these ex -military guys, they hear stuff. It comes through the wire. Again, it's like General Flynn has done a lot of this grid going down type nonsense. So they talk to each other all the time. They're very active online and Instagram. It's a silo. Now, as an ex-military guy, Sean Ryan has no beard. That's always a flag for me because ex -military guys, you got to have a beard.

If you're in the silo, you got to have a beard. So he doesn't have a beard. We have to make note of the fact that in his bio, he states he was a CIA contractor for 12 years. So I'm not sure what he is. And again, I'm not saying that he knows anything. But then what shows up on his podcast but a guy named Sam Shoemate, who is an ex-military guy, and he has received this email the day before, which he says came from this guy who blew himself up in the Cybertruck.

And this is the whole China has been launching anti-gravatic drones from the Atlantic submarines for years, et cetera. For years, yes. Let's learn a little bit about this guy. Is there anything else we need to cover that you can think of? Jeremy? I like the brown hair. Oh, yeah. There's a lot of this. And then he asks this. So everyone has a Jamie now. So now we have Sean Ryan asking Jeremy. That's his Jamie. Is there anything else we need to cover? Like this guy. I guess he's the producer.

So I guess he has all the questions. Did you want to go into the other item we talked about in the ride over here this morning? Oh, the other item. Hold on a second. There's more. The other item. Can I say it? Yes. Yeah. The man pads. Can I say it? The man pads? What? Well, I'm unfamiliar. All right. So I'm saying this with you can you can decide to use this or cut it out. There was there was this is this is hard to work with because keep in mind, let me give some background on this.

I'm an intelligence analyst and I've spent. OK, now now this guy is not just some rando posting on Instagram. He's an intelligence analyst. OK. Along many years validating sources, taking information in, putting it back out, telling my human tours. Hey, this source, this is valid. Yeah. And so that sounds more like CIA to me when you're talking about human tours. But OK, well, he's an intelligence analyst for the military, apparently.

But now now he's doing this, putting it back out, telling my human tours, hey, this source is valid. Let's give him a rating of this, do this, this, this recommendation so we can we can identify good sources in the field that give us information and we can say, yes, this is a, you know, an a source versus, you know, an F6. This is just garbage. Somebody got paid for something. I still work in intelligence. I'm an intelligence officer. I work for a nonprofit.

We we Remnant Ministries out of Texas. In fact, the website is in my bio on X. I work with Dr. I work for Dr. Pete Chambers. OK, so so bells go off in my head. Wait a minute. You're an intelligence analyst for the Remnant Ministry out of Texas. You work with Dr. Pete Chambers. Well, I know who this is. This is the guy who set up the let's take back our borders convoy down to Eagle Pass, which was the wettest fart in all in all history. Do you remember this vaguely?

Sir Gene went down there and we're going to take back our borders. And this guy was it was it was a little, you know, it was like 50 guys showed up and like, OK, big noise, very, very small organization. And but they have a human or not a human, but a a an intelligence guy working there. Really? Yes, exactly. So and it's Doc Chambers, who himself, I believe, was also in intelligence. So there's something fundamentally broken about these stories.

Many people that are too many guys in intelligence. So let's talk about the man pad, shall we? We we had some confirmed reporting through two solid sources, which he never mentions. And this is where I have to be very iffy. And I told him in the car, I can tell you offline, I cannot say this on the air. Why not? Why not? I don't understand. Everything's out in the open. But he can't. Oh, I can't say this on the air.

But we had two solid sources, one south of the border and then one from an element within our own government that confirmed independently of each other that some Iranian made man pads to surface their missiles had come across the border. We had the location and everything else. Well, Doc, that's that's what he goes by. Doc Chambers, he put this out on a podcast and I was very emphatic like this is not stuff that I like to put on social media. And I'm an Intel guy by trade.

This stuff is not for social media consumption. This guy literally all he does is post on social media, on Instagram. But now this thing. Oh, no, Doc, I can't put this on social media. OK. We got this the Secret Service. We did the whole the whole game and got everything pushed to them. And that's why Trump was pushing a lot of this stuff out when he was because we had told the Secret Service and they had the reporting and everything else.

But we we have not, to my knowledge, have not recovered those man pads. Now, I'm not I'm not privy to that. But what I do know we have done is we have apprehended the couriers on a second run of theirs. And we have local law enforcement got together with federal law enforcement and and rolled up the safe house. And I will not say that. Why say it? Please. On this show. But they rolled up the safe house where it was.

But it was it was something we found was was pertinent because at the time Trump was still campaigning, he was flying around and there was the reports were their intent was to take down Trump's airplane. So at the time, Secret Service switched things up a bit. And allegedly, from what I've told, they started flying him around on charters for a while until they could identify and kind of mitigate that threat. OK, so this we remember this story. Iran's going to take down Trump's plane again.

We heard this from Laura Logan. This is all these these rumors that flow through these networks. And I'm sad to say, I'm sure the guy means well, but do they really know that? I don't know that for sure. You're correct. But it's like, come on. I mean, can you make it even crazier? Oh, wait. Oh, yes, I can. I'm with you on the not releasing certain things on social media. I understand that.

But on the other way, on the other hand, it seems to be the only way to demand any type of accountability or get this in force. You see what what Sean Ryan is saying here now is we've been warning you. We've been saying ISIS is coming. And I'll get to that in a moment. No one will listen to us. It's finally here. It's finally happening. We were right against the FBI homeland.

And whoever else is involved to dive into this shit and actually take part, that's what we've been doing here on the show with Scott Mann, retired Lieutenant Colonel Green Beret, Sarah Adams, former agency targeter. We brought on legend who's an army intelligence guy who goes by legend because he doesn't want to reveal his name because he's still. Oh, brother. Seriously. You know what has happened here is. It sounds like WWE.

What has happened here is the people who used to go on cable news, who would be former this former that former intelligence, former colonel, they've all moved to podcasts and they're blanketing podcasts, particularly these military based podcasts with their literal disinformation, as far as I'm concerned, because none of it can actually be told or really checks out. But this next one here is a doozy. It's very involved. We've been talking about this stuff for a year, a year.

We got it to Congress, congressmen out of Knoxville, Tennessee, Tim Burchett, and nobody's fucking paying attention. Nobody's paying attention. We tried to get it in the media. We got a little bit of hits. Most of them were from from outside the US. We had a report around India kind of cover it. But we've been warning about what's happening for damn near a year now. Sarah first came on, I believe it was October of 2023 was her first interview. And nobody took it seriously.

Now we have the New Orleans attack. We have we have Iranian missiles. We have these invisible bombs. Do you know about the invisible bombs? Oh, no. The invisible bombs. John, do you know about the invisible bombs? No, but I'm about to find out. So now that now these terrorist organizations have developed invisible bombs that will get through metal detectors and kind of screening device that that's out there. And they brag about this. And now we just did a Twitter spaces with Sarah Adams.

Sarah Adams is important. We're going to come to her in a moment. He just loves her for some reason. He keeps bringing her. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And I'd be interested. They are now bragging that that we know about the invisible bomb. It's now even more advanced than it was before. So that means who's bragging? I don't know. This is the first I've ever heard of the invisible. They're bragging and they're bragging and bragging. I've never heard of this. But yet yet they're bragging.

They're doing a poor job. Really, these guys are doing a good job of spreading it into stadiums. They can get this into airports. They can get this pretty much anywhere they want because you cannot detect it. That's that's scary. There's no stopping what's here. We cannot stop this. No, you can't roll back. Not with what we have in the bottle already in here. We have sleeper cells. We're getting reports that now let's just go back to what Laura Logan said. Hold on a second.

I learned months ago from multiple U.S. Intel sources that the CIA, Sean Ryan, 12 -year contractor for the CIA, was urging their friends in the Taliban Haqqani terror network to use their sleeper cells inside the U.S. for an attack that would be blamed on ISIS. Yeah, okay. So this is what we're talking about now. We're fear mongering about sleeper cells. Sleeper cells. We're already getting reports that we're already getting reports that I just lost my train of thought.

Oh, we're already getting some reports that there may be more involved in the Louisiana New Orleans attack. They're not releasing. No, we also I'll tell you this. There's a group of people flying around and and basically briefing up different departments, governors about what's coming, how to deal with it in their communities. And so what I basically want to say is it's going to be a bloody 2025. Oh, okay. It's going to be a bloody 2025.

Well, maybe this first month as we have these confirmation hearings coming up. So now let's just meet Sarah Adams, who has been on Sean Ryan show several times. I mean, whenever I see someone coming out and saying, yeah, I'm ex CIA, immediately I go, no, you're not. You're either still CIA or you were never CIA. My uncle was CIA. He couldn't even publish his book about his time in Japan without the. Firstly, he had to run his book, Pot Shards, good book, had to run it through the agency.

They said, you can't write anything about being in Japan. He lived there for eight years with his family. He was in Japan. He couldn't write a single thing about it. My aunt, not no one, not even my cousins. Her children knew she ran the Russia desk for the CIA and outranked Uncle Don until she died. Because that's not what you do. You can't just go running around telling everybody how the CIA operates and everything you're doing.

But let's meet Sarah Adams, Sean. No, no, no, no. But you basically sign your life away to prevent you from doing that. Exactly, exactly. It's just not true. There's another guy with like the long braided hair who's been on Lex Friedman. Oh, I'm an ex CIA guy. I don't believe it for a second. You're either currently CIA and sending a message or you were never CIA to begin with. So here's Sarah Adams. Let's learn about her as in this welcoming intro, Sean Ryan runs down her honorables.

For those of you that don't know, this is your third appearance on the show. We already have a fourth scheduled for. Oh, I guess there's another terror attack coming if she's scheduled for a fourth. We already have a fourth scheduled for later in 2025. But Sarah Adams, co-author of Benghazi, Know Thy Enemy, a Cold Case Investigation. Former CIA officer, Libyan crisis before, during and after the 9-11 attacks.

Counterterrorism analyst, targeter for the CIA, senior advisor on the select committee on Benghazi. I don't know what a CIA targeter is. I've never heard of it in my life. I haven't either. I'm just wondering. I thought you might. I thought it was. I miss. Yeah. Targeter. The next bit is the best. Counterterrorism analyst, targeter for the CIA, senior advisor on the select committee on Benghazi. NGO official working across multiple conflict zones, including Afghanistan, Ukraine and Sudan.

NGO official in Ukraine. So what you do is color revolutions. Is that what you do? NGOs in Ukraine were partly responsible for the for the overthrow, for the push, for the Maidan. Yep. So that's what she does. Partially. Yeah. Known to be 10 percent humanitarian, 90 percent warlord. That's me. OK, so wow. Wow. She is. She's a badass, John. That's what you need to know. So tell me about it, Sarah Adams. I mean, we talked a lot about, you know, passports, too.

And in your previous episode, is that are they coming in straight to the U.S.? You know what? This is this is her telling us that ISIS is coming into the country. U.S. passports or passports with visas to the U.S. or the majority of it going to South America and then funneling up through the Darien Gap into the southern border. So in my opinion, terrorists in general just leaving Afghanistan, a lot of them are coming up through the Darien Gap to the border. And that was there was a big push.

Right. Get in the U.S. while you can. A lot of these terrorists are coming up. Right. Right. There still is the problem of lone wolves. There is the problem of we have terrorists in this country now where those members have never been in this country. Right. We don't have any idea what their intent is. Islamic movement of Uzbekistan is a great example. Right. They've sent terrorists from Afghanistan region here. Why? Right.

We have terrorists in this country that we don't even know their long term plans against us because they're not never really been a focus of ours. Or we focus on them with this little piece where they did a few operations or training with al-Qaeda. Right. But we don't know the intent. And maybe they just are force multipliers for al-Qaeda or the Islamic army. Source multipliers. But we lack the understanding.

So what she does on the Sean Ryan podcast and you can go listen to two hours of her or three hours. It's all this gobbledygook. Right. OK. Why? OK. So she is just she's just telling a story after story. Luckily, I got a short. Yes. I was just say I think it was creative. And, you know, there's the idea of force multipliers. She has source multipliers. And by the way, I noticed I'm looking at one of their logos. The Sean Ryan show is Sarah Adams episode 116. Sarah Adams, a.k.a. Superbad.

Yeah, that's her. That's her handle. Superbad. She looks anything but Superbad. I know. She looks like a like a like a wannabe to a sorority. She's a pom-pom girl, maybe some high school. All right. So it was her message is very convoluted. The Sean Ryan podcast. But luckily, I found her on the Dale Stark podcast because she gets around. Again, this is exactly what I said. What happened? All these podcasts are open microphones. And it's great. You get someone coming in and I'm an ex CIA guy.

Come on. I got to talk to you for three hours. I'm Superbad. I'm a CIA. Targeter. Oh, yeah. You're Superbad. I got to talk to you. You've got the right story. But on this particular podcast, she just narrowed it all down for us. Nobody knew that I had the manifesto. I had to be very quiet for a day. So people were messaging me and they're like, have you heard of this? This guy? Have you seen this? Hold on. That's the wrong one. That's not the one I want. This is no, I'm sorry. Where is it?

Where is? Oh, no. Maybe it is this. And they didn't know I wasn't posting on it. People expect me to post on these relevant incidents. I said, so anyways. Oh, man, where is where is she? Oh, I had this. You give a setup here. I know. I feel stupid. I had this great, this great clip. Hold on a second. You'll have it. Where? I can't believe it. This clip is gone. Well, maybe she is CIA. Maybe she is. Well, I can tell you what she said. She said, we're there. Oh, man. Hold on a second.

I can't believe it. You didn't lose it. Well, where did it go then? You misplaced it. I must have misplaced it. She basically says we will have 15 terror attacks in 2025. In the United States. Oh, this clip you've got to find. I know. I know. That's I can't believe it. I must have. I must have mislabeled it or something. I'm going to find it. Gosh, that is really dumb. I don't understand how that happens. I'd like to see 15 terrorist attacks. Anyway.

Crap. That really, that was my, that was actually my crescendo. I can't believe I lost that one. Yeah. That was one of the greatest lead-ins to a dud I've ever heard you do, ever. The biggest letdown I've ever produced on this podcast. Crapola. I feel so stupid. I let you do it. I feel stupid. I was convinced I had it, but I have the wrong, I, for some reason I have the wrong, the wrong mislabeled clip here. So let's just bottom line it.

Okay. Let's bottom line, force exaggerate, whatever is that term? Yeah. Force. Let's bottom line multiply. Yes. Yes. Force multiply this. FBI six week cycle. They don't want Kash Patel coming in, rocking the boat. We need all kinds of resources. CIA, their whole job is to make sure that Tulsi gets all kinds of complicated questions and the CIA, these are the people, or whether they're real CIA, they're certainly not former CIA.

And the military is just picking up everything because I think so many of our military has just been traumatized by everything they've been through that it's so easy to lob something to these guys. They take it, they post it, everyone's going back and forth. And meanwhile, we're left with ISIS is here. We're going to die. They're going to, they're going to attack us. Be afraid, be very afraid.

And all of this is, is happening in this very month when the new administration and confirmation hearings are coming in and everything else. I mean, I think this guy who blew himself up, he probably had a mental problem and he blew himself up. And I think what this is, if it was his form of suicide and it turns out they try to make it look like he's some sort of a Trump hater, that's what he did at the Trump Tower. But he's, I guess, was a huge pro -Trumper.

Very pro-Trump from what I understand. So this is all spinning people up and, and, you know, of course, it's also great that these guys get clicks and likes and views and all of that stuff. That's all fine. Let me see. Is this the clip? I think this is the clip. No, that's not the clip. I cannot stand myself, John. I'm going to find this. We're going to, after the show, we're going to record a drop-in so that I don't look like a total fool.

It would be the only, by the way, I should mention to people out there, we have never done a drop-in. No, we haven't. I should though. And that's a phrase for people that don't know what that means. In other words, you take your whole show and then you go after the show's over and you find and there's something you wanted to put in. So you re-record something and then you take it, pick it up and drop it in somewhere in the show as though it was in the show. And then we sound brilliant.

And that's what most, you know, people do. That's post-production. That's what most people do. We don't do that because we don't normally, normally we don't have to because we don't have these incidents except rarely. So I don't think we have to be too worried about stuff. Especially with a structured presentation, I might add. Just to rub it in. Yes. Goodness gracious. I can't believe I screwed that one up. I'm very angry at myself right now. Sarah Adams. I'll keep an eye on her. Oh yeah.

Well, she has a fourth scheduled appearance on Sean Ryan. Well, I've never heard this guy's show, but I've been listening to some of these oddballs. It's worth mentioning that he showed up on the Rogan show maybe about a month ago. And that's where I really first heard of him. And I think that really catapulted him out. And Joe was very flattering, you know, like, hey man, you're the guy that started doing all this stuff. I'm like, huh? Okay. I guess.

We did learn, of course, that Tesla has all kinds of data on you when you're driving. That's nice to know. Oh yeah. But we got pictures of the guy. We got video from inside the Cybertruck. That's what it does. Tesla's a spying operation. Yes. Well, most of these cars. Do you know how many cars? The Washington Post actually did a piece on this about, I mean, cars are selling your data left and right. It's unbelievable. It's a money maker. It's a big money maker.

And there's some websites you can use, and they'll send emails to the appropriate addresses of your car manufacturer to opt out of their data collection, or I don't know if you can opt out of the data collection, but you can opt out of them sending it to third parties. Which brings me to the Apple clip. Apple is going to pay $95 million to settle a proposed class action lawsuit that claims Siri violated its users' privacy.

A mobile device owner say Apple routinely recorded their private conversations after they had unintentionally activated Siri. They claim the company then disclosed the conversations to third parties such as advertisers. One plaintiff in the suit said he ended up getting ads for a brand name surgical treatment after what he thought was a private discussion with his doctor. The issue reportedly began when Apple incorporated the Hey Siri feature into the voice activated assistant.

People who have file claims could receive up to $20 for each Apple device. Apple denied wrongdoing in settling the lawsuit. Wow. Twenty whole dollars. How about that? That's fabulous. Privacy is worse nowadays. Yeah. The BBC did this story. They did it in kind of a funny way. Kind of a way that we might have done. The tech giant Apple has agreed to pay a $95 million settlement to users who accuse its digital assistant Siri of listening in on their private conversations.

The BBC's Isabella Bull decided to ask Siri itself about the allegations. Hey Siri. Have you been recording my private conversations? Sorry, I don't understand. Have you been listening to me? I respect your privacy and only listen when you're talking to me. You can learn about Apple's approach to privacy at apple.com. So Siri, why is Apple settling a lawsuit over you? I found this on the web. Okay. I can see you've brought up the BBC News article about this lawsuit. Can you explain it to me?

Apple means the round fruit of a tree of the rose family, which typically has thin green or red skin and crisp flesh. Do you want to hear the remaining one? No thanks, Siri. That's okay. Okay. Okay. BBC. Way to go. Way to go. Not even talking about the issue. That's kind of cute. But Apple has, of course, not admitted any guilt in this settlement. It's just settling. They haven't said they'd do it or not. And no one seems to care. No. Why would they?

If you're an Apple user, you've already given up. You've given up. So a couple of news items came around that might be worth discussing. Okay. Let's play this clip. The Presidential Medal of Freedom. Yes. Yes. This got, indeed, got some attention. President Biden awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to big names in the worlds of politics, the arts, sports, and philanthropy.

Former Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Clinton, Academy Award winner Denzel Washington, and world -renowned conservationist Jane Goodall were among the 19 honorees. The president said the recipients have made remarkable contributions to the world and put decency above all else.

For the final time as president, I have the honor of restoring the Medal of Freedom, my nation's highest civilian honor, on a group of extraordinary, truly extraordinary people who gave their sacred effort, their sacred effort, to shape the culture and the cause of America. The Presidential Medal of Freedom is awarded to those who have made contributions to the prosperity, values, or security of the United States. So, this was kind of interesting, the people...

Wait. Kind of interesting is that they don't mention anybody worth mentioning. Well, what was interesting is the people who actually got the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Yes. I have a list. Okay. What's the list? Well, it's a long list. I mean, it's 19 people. Well, let's go over them. Because he doesn't mention any of them except, you know, Clinton, I guess. Jose Andres, a Spanish-American... Oh, he's the chef. He's the chef. The chef. Okay. He's a good guy. So, we'll let him go.

Bono. Bono. Bono. Yes. Bono. Why does he get anything? Well, he had a, you know... He's not even an American. He's a U2. He's a U2 guy. It's an American award for Americans. I don't know if it's strictly for Americans. Ashton Carter. He's dead. He's the Secretary of Defense. I don't know what the point of that was. Okay. Hillary Rodham Clinton. Michael J. Fox. Well, I mean, it's Michael J. Fox.

Well, I mean, I like Michael J. Fox, but I don't know... I mean, you know, Trump gave Rush Limbaugh an award before he died. Michael J. Fox is not doing too well. Tim Gill. Who's that? He's an entrepreneur who advanced LGBTQI rights and equality after transforming and publishing industry through groundbreaking software. He should get an award because that LGBTQ thing had legs. Lie. It's an important part of that. Very good. Jane Goodall? The gorilla lady? Yeah. And what is the...

Okay. She's great. I'm not arguing that, but what's she got to do with America? Hold on a second. Just like any award show, this is how you have to look at it. It's always part marketing and it's always part party. Joe Biden didn't put this list together. You know, he or whoever is standing in for him. So this is just a list of all these people before they get kicked out of the White House. Like who do you want to meet? I want to meet that gorilla lady. Okay. Let's give her a medal.

I've always wanted to meet Bono. He's so awesome. All right. We'll give him a medal. Hey, could I get some cooking tips from Jose? Yeah. We'll give him a medal. That's what this is. Who else is on the list? Fannie Lou Hammer, who's dead. Well, they just throw those in to make it look legit. Racial justice. Irvin Magic Johnson, the basketball player. Yeah. I'd like to meet him. Well, what about Larry Bird? He's white. Get out of here. Robert RFK, the original? The dead one?

Yeah. That's just to poke out RFK Jr.'s eye. Hey. Well, they actually made, I think RFK Jr. was there. Oh, he went there to receive it? Oh, okay. Oh. So that was kind of funny. It's like I talked to him in the hallway. Hey, listen. Listen. Ralph Lauren. Come on, man. Get me a free suit. That's what I'm thinking. That's what everyone at the dinner table the other night was thinking. Where was Schwarzenegger? Did he get one? Arnold Schwarzenegger? Not yet. No. It's coming. It's coming. All right.

Lionel Messi? Messi? The soccer player? Do you know how many people want to meet him? Give him an award. Did he show up? I have no idea. Hmm. I think he's playing for an American team now. Miami. Yeah. To be specific. I was right. He's not American. William Sanford Nye. Oh, Bill Nye the science guy. He's very important. How is this guy, who's not even a science guy, is an engineer, I think, a mechanical engineer or even- I mean, come on. And he's a phony. He's a big phony.

Okay. Can I just put it this way? This was trolling. This was trolling for exactly what you're doing. Because- Well, I got to finish the list now. Everybody was doing this. Why did that guy get it? He's not even American. This was the whole social media was it was trolling Trolling people and you're all in on it. Give it to me. I'm totally in on it. Let's go. I'm gonna finish the list After Bill Nye the science guy we go to George Romney.

Oh, yeah, who's also dead Yeah, did Mitt accept on his behalf? I didn't see that but as I would guess he was there cuz he lives there in Washington D.c. Probably was there was Jimmy Savile on the list by any chance For the pizza parties David Rubinstein the co -founder and executive of the Carlisle group what very important to give it to investors now very important Somebody wants a job after they get out of the administration. They'd love to go to the Carlisle group. Come on.

Hey Hey, we're so glad you come to get your Presidential Medal of Freedom. Can I just give you my resume? Staying in alphabetical order the one that really got the attention Hillary George Soros Who didn't accept the award his son did you know George can't he's dead. He can't walk. He's almost dead. Yeah That was it no Joe I got a couple more there's three there's three more and then we're done George Stevens jr Who's that? Yeah, that's the question, isn't it?

Yeah He's a award-winning writer director author and playwright His career has been dedicated to preserving and celebrating the best of America film and the performing arts Including by founding the American Film Institute and creating the Kennedy Center honors, okay Well, do you want that guy? Cuz you know, hey look if we give you an award Can you give me a Kennedy Center or honor boom? Yeah, I think you nailed that one. Yeah. Yeah, the rest of these were sketchy Denzel Washington.

Oh, he's a he's a he's a Pastor now. Yeah, you know, I heard that gotta bring the God stuff in very good Well, they had one good and then wait last on the list last one Which is really a head shaker to me and a wind tower. Ah Hey, I want to sit on the front row the next fashion show. Hey, listen, I'm gonna be ambassador to Paris Anna can you make sure that I get a good seat at the front row at the at the fashion show during fashion week?

Testing list so while you did that, thank you for doing that list. I was able to find my clip Ah, you can thank me. I'm thanking you. Here is the clip back back to the interesting point. You said that You guys think that they've sent at least 15 al-qaeda alone has sent at least 1,500 people here in the United States, right? What do they plan on doing with them?

They have a 2025 multi-coordinated multi-city plot to avenge the death of Osama bin Laden Okay, so I I've watched your I watched you on podcast. I've never heard that There's a could you explain that more we're gonna put our report on Monday, but essentially Al-qaeda is actually who helped plan the Hamas attacks.

The Hamas attacks is a dress rehearsal So the Hamas attacks is the practice attack and then the big attack is going to be in the United States and then in four countries in Europe, okay You guys want to go home and love magazine There it is four countries in Europe there's 1,500 al -qaeda in America They're going to attack as as revenge for bin Laden according to Sarah Adams There you go on the shark the shark coast tactical podcast Exactly so she just goes out everywhere the pom-pom We're gonna

do it makes it up as she goes along. I don't believe she's even being Scheduled to do anything. What does she makes it up? She's making listen to what she called it. She's not even an op here. Listen to what she calls it What do they plan on doing with them? 525 multi-coordinated multi-city multi-coordinated multi -city plot to avenge the multi-coordinated Multi -city, I like it. Hey, I'll do it. Are you coordinated? I'm ready. Go ahead vomit please You're right.

She does look like a pom-pom girl.

She looks anything but super bad Yeah, she's likes a pom-pom girl said that she might not even make the squad at pom -pom girl You know the lowest no offense to the women out there who couldn't make the pom-pom at all at all no, please yeah Yeah, well now we're aware of another another lunatic I'm I just find it a little bit concerning because people are out there just walking around like oh, yeah Although I am very proud of a lot of our no agenda producers who would send me

this This link to the Sean Ryan pockets like this and this makes no sense. This has got to be an op well, yeah of sorts That's the thing I'm not even thinking it's an op. No, it's just chatter It's just bullcrap.

I don't chat Well, you know, they are pretty well structure when they work when they're back when it's a real op Yeah, they could try something I guess but I don't know Boy I have so many different places I can go right now I can go with the US steel Buyout which is kind of interesting, but I have this this series of clips. I want to play. Okay on Manufacturing job training because I have complaints about these this three clips Manufacturing job training.

Is this where you have to train your replacement from India? No. No that that's that's that's old news Oh, okay. This is just bitching and moaning about the fact that they want to keep kids from taking gender studies in college they finally got a clue and So this this MFG job training I have commentary. Okay. This is the first one PBS W Yep to reflect this important and concerning risk. Do you know what those limits should be how they should be revised?

Well, they should be revised downward is my opinion Who's talking here? Give me some okay. I have no idea what's going on. Yeah, okay. They're talking about the fact that Trump wants to do wants to make as a manufacturing a Strong manufacturing company once again, and we're going and we're going to you know crank it up so we're all in the manufacturing game and This guy comes on to say that this I cut right into the middle of it This was too long to play the whole thing.

Yeah, so I have to do it It turns out that if you look at the data and everything we're done as Manufacturing and we can't get enough workers kids don't want to do the job You ask the kids if they want to go into manufacturing, they'd rather not they want to be on Tick -tock want to be an influencer.

You know what you just said is absolutely part of the bit Okay You actually nailed it because they'd rather be on tick-tock or doing nothing and they've never been trained properly when I was a kid Hi, here we go When I was a kid in high school During the summer, I would work in a manufacturing job in high school and then and then in college you do this I mean you would just do that It was just but you go to school and you work during the summer or you go to do you might go to camp?

Most people didn't they they'd get a job make a bunch of money and you could coast through the regular year with that money Yeah, and and then you'd learn the how important that was because you could have money Which is a big deal and you'd also get it get into the good habits of liking to work because it's actually something the good way to use your time and The kids today know they're not interested.

They want they want to be influencers or they want to work for Rover and be dog-sitters That is not too far from what they're talking about what you just said Okay, so so we're in the middle of the conversation So you're gonna we're kind of picking up a conversation in the middle To reflect this important and concerning risk, do you know what those limits should be how they should be revised?

Well, they should be revised downward is my opinion And you overall with the guidelines committee needs to do is look at the overall health impact of alcohol, but here too I'm playing the one you told me to play MFG job training PBS W. Oh My god, that is the alcohol clip died. I guess both of us are doing this today The op is in progress Let's start. Let's get that road.

We're screwed today That is the alcohol clip because there's because I'm gonna stop this job clip because of what I just said is probably enough But I would let's skip up to anti alki one PBS Alcohol is the third leading preventable cause of cancer in the United States following tobacco use and obesity Alcohol consumption contributes to roughly a hundred thousand cancer cases and twenty thousand deaths each year and a new advisory out today from the US

Surgeon General says alcoholic beverages should have a warning label about those risks u.s. Surgeon General. Dr Vivek Murthy joins us now to discuss. Welcome back to the news hour. Great. Thanks so much. I'm not good to be with you again There's a few things that really stood out to me from your findings I just want to tick through them for our audience here number one Alcohol consumption you found increases the risk of at least seven types of cancer over 16% of all breast cancer cases

in the u.s. In 2019 were alcohol related Okay So this is part of the series of clips. I played last show which is this anti health alcohol thing. That's going on Yes, I've heard about it.

And so now they're claiming it does this and that somehow breast cancer is related to having a drink Which it would logically makes no sense But okay, we're gonna go with this now you can play the rest of this clip or you can listen to me complain Well before we listen to you complain I have a follow-on clip because there was a little gotcha in this that came in from this same story Which was the same everywhere everywhere.

It was the same everywhere is local news this was PBS and it was it was following the last week's the last shows clips about Sober Yeah, no you play yours played on the medical watch now alcohol is as bad as smoking when it comes to causing cancer That's the best This is important because it leads into what's coming regarding this surgeon general who's recommending warning labels on alcoholic beverages Dr. Vivek Murthy's report cite studies linking alcoholic

beverages to at least seven malignancies including breast cancer Joining me now to sort out what this means for us is dr.

Brian health and who is an oncologist with no Thank you for being guys an oncologist in here since alcohol is so much a part of so many people's lives I'm sure they're not happy obviously about this, you know when the warnings first arose regarding cigarettes I think people didn't necessarily believe it then that cancer connection became so clear Do you see that happening with alcohol?

I think the information that we obtained through large studies and we have these, you know amazing abilities now that we've accumulated Datasets for many many years and we can analyze it and the more information that we can get from that really Convinces us of the harms that a lot of what we consider routine behaviors and the harm that they have caused so again, I think that We are learning.

I do think that we will potentially see that, you know severe Warnings and potentially even taxes on alcohol as we Taxes More taxes on alcohol. That's what this is. That's where this is going Higher taxes to thwart people from drinking alcohol. It's easy. I think that's just one of two elements. What's the other one? The other element which was shown on local television and I think local broadcasts will have this There was there's a there's a non -alcoholic club in San Francisco.

It's a nightclub and it's only serves Non -alcoholic wine non-alcoholic champagne non-alcoholic beer and I think there's a lobby That put this to put this package together Promote non -alcohol beverage drinking.

Yeah, that makes sense Cuz that's what you do If you're you run you you you get all these different companies there's a lot of them now Making non-alcoholic beverage you form a community and you say look we need a lobbying effort Yeah, we gotta start getting people to drink this crap What is your as as a as an alcohol consumer yourself, what is your thinking on this? I mean, they're now saying that just it's just connected you drink alcohol.

You have a chance of getting cancer to me Nothing water does the same thing and but and What should give you cancer the this is I think I think it's nonsense at some level and the in the late longevity Studies in France, for example, where they drink a lot or they used to drink a lot more alcohol than they do today and the fact that we had like We really had a society that was an alcoholic before prohibition.

Yes. I'm not buying any of it I and and when it comes to the non-alcoholic stuff I have to say it's the improvement in its quality over the years will It's probably the right time to try to promote it a little bit Because I think some of it's actually quite tasty I've had a few beers recently and not wine so much but beers that are non-alcoholic that are quite quite good And so if I was in that business I would be going out of my way to promote people at least

try it and this is probably an attempt I think this I think this is just a promotional and it but I like the tax thing I didn't catch that the tax thing and then there's also we're still looking for a reason for the turbo cancers. Oh Number three, you're right. I actually thought about that. Yes. We have a bunch of turbo cancers caused by vaccines Which are cancer-causing? documented And more recent and you've got to come up with something to explain it away.

So yes Yeah, that would be the third rationale have you heard of have you heard of the mirror life have you heard of this this from this scientific breakthrough mirroring mirroring mirroring Molecules mirroring life You know, it's it's ringing some sort of Bell, but I'm not I don't know what you're talking about So a warning came out that science it's so at first I thought it was like gain of function and it's not Gain of function, but we'll have I have a couple clips here.

This is From the current. Hello. I'm Matt Galloway and this is the current podcast Sorry That has to stay in there. Otherwise, you have no context You know It sounds like something maybe an episode of Star Trek a group of scientists is calling for a halt in research that could lead to Something called mirror life.

Those scientists worried that the synthetic organisms that Create these mirror molecules in this field of research could present an unprecedented risk to all life on earth That sounds rather serious. Kate Ademala is one of the scientists She's a synthetic biologist founder of the build a cell initiative and genetics professor at the University of Minnesota They'll do their Minneapolis. Oh Kate. Good morning Good morning, let's start with the basics. What do you do? What is a synthetic biologist?

Synthetic biologist is someone who makes things out of biology that biology doesn't naturally do and We do that so we can expand that Diversity of what we can get out of biology better medicine better drugs better ways of making molecules Basically making anything that a natural biology didn't think of doing The mRNA vaccine during the kovat pandemic is an example of that, right? Yes That's one of our poster child examples of a successful synthetic biology project.

I've got my attention Yeah, I think that got my attention. So it seems that there's a bunch of scientists out there saying we should not be doing this. I Think I can agree But when you get into this, I mean, this is this is more freaky than the drones. What is what is mirror life?

Mirror life is the idea that you could make a cell that looks exactly like a normal bacteria cell But all molecules in that cell would be pointing the opposite direction So every biological molecule points one way or the other it has a physical Conformation in space and there are two possible conformations for every molecule and life is very particular About what direction all our molecules point?

If there is one Conformation that all life uses and it's possible to imagine making a cell where all molecules point the exactly opposite Direction, that's why we call it mirror life because it would be like a molecule that looks at itself in a mirror Why are these people doing this?

Are they've run out of ideas to kill us well, they would hope that they could come up with something that would kill us faster But they This has been attempted before it did this I did this all goes back stems back to something in that was taking place in the 50s 60s and 70s Yeah, I knew you'd have context for us trying to create life from scratch Mmm, that's it.

This is something that has never been accomplished and it can't be accomplished for various I don't know what the reasons the cosmic reasons are but it hasn't been done and it seems unlikely it'll ever be done and It's just it this is part of that Process hope it is and it's I think it stems from the thinking of matter and anti matter And you have life and anti life because this is basically what she's describing which isn't mirroring but anti life And so this is not this is bullcrap. It's okay.

It's going nowhere good It's got an mRNA has got nothing to do with this is that's been a technology as Everyone's known about mRNA Decades ago. It's effective papers written about it, but it's one of the poster children of their work It says can't be a poster child for what she's up to. This is bull. I have one clip here about why why are we doing? This why would somebody want to do that? Yeah, why?

Because we we wanted to do that for the same reasons why we don't want to do it right now So we thought that it was a great medicine. We want to do it for the same reasons. We don't want to do it These people get grants What you're talking about that what you just said is the problem yeah grants Come on, doge get to work Immune system wouldn't freak out about it.

We would be able to make cell-based Therapeutics that would not create adverse immune response and we also could use it for biomanufacturing We could use it to make molecules with biology in bioreactors that are not susceptible to external contaminations because we thought that they would be orthogonal to viruses to predators and these are exactly the reasons why now we Understand we shouldn't be making it because it wouldn't only be silent to immune system when we

want it It would always be silent to immune system. So it could be a pathogen that we couldn't fight. There you go Well, then don't do it Stop playing God. Don't do it. These people are crazy Brought to you by the same people who brought you climate change Or the new the new outbreak the new outbreak John the new outbreak Very mysterious virus in China. Have you been following the news? Well, not right. Yeah, but not that I don't know what this is. Oh, this is great So this is only out of Wuhan.

It's only on Indian channels It's really strange That the Indian news has picked this up and we have a pocky shawarma Who no longer works at the old place at WIO and she by the way, by the way, have you seen the the? AI version of her. No, I haven't. Is it good? Yeah This is not the AI version of polkies. I think I'm at pocky shawarma. I can't remember her name But this is she lays and you know, she has such an authoritative voice I hate to say this but it feels like 2020 all over again.

All right This is the way you start baby overflowing hospitals and thousands of patients with flu-like symptoms China is facing a new health crisis a new disease outbreak Which looks a lot like the Wuhan virus and as always Beijing is sharing.

No information as always They're calling it a pneumonia of unknown origin pneumonia of unknown origin That's how Chinese authorities have described it Beijing says it has set up systems systems to monitor the outbreak If you feel like you've heard this before you have From the same China some four years back. They're making it sound like it's just the flu season We do hope it's just that but sadly the pictures tell a different story.

Take a look at this This is believed to be from a hospital in China We cannot verify these pictures but several videos like this one are going viral clearly there is more to the story We do not wish to speculate and it's exact same pictures as As with kovat, you know, they've got the everyone in the waiting room.

They've got IVs pictures in Italy Yeah, they see you're seeing pictures of you know of morgues everything stacking up feed the fear But here is what we know so far This is not a new disease experts say that China is dealing with an outbreak of HMPV, that's the human meta nemo virus HMPV HMPV. Hey, we have a name HMPV, but it's was it H or S H H M human meta Nemo mnemonic Whatever is what we know so far.

This is not a new disease experts say that China is dealing with an outbreak of HMPV that's the human meta. Nemo virus HMPV human meta. Nemo virus This virus has been around for at least 60 years. It is quite common and easy to catch Virus this time they seem to be dealing with a known disease and yet there are reasons to be worried The first one is the scale of the outbreak.

It is a massive scale cases have been reported in multiple cities across China, Beijing Tianjin Shanghai and inner Mongolia these five areas have reported the highest number of cases But we don't know about the actual caseload as usual China has not shared any data, so we don't know how much worse it could become So every single Indian Channel had this I'll just play just a brief little bit here So you get a little taste for it.

This is China News 18 Welcome back and well viewers five years after the kovat 19 pandemic Which first originated from China China once again is witnessing an outbreak of the human meta Nemo virus or the HMPV according to reports and social media posts hospitals are overcrowded with infected individuals and crematories also Some social media users in fact claim that multiple viruses including influenza And then we have Wion the Beijing is denied reports on social media posts

that China is experiencing a rise in respiratory illnesses including human Meta-neumovirus also known as the HMPV. So everyone's got the same. Well, it's the social media posts.

It's the same thing I don't know why they're trying to do this maybe because they're the guys who make the most Ivermectin or something and I would have dismissed all of this word not for this late-breaking news report That is read in a very boring voice from Euronews European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen has cancer their engagements for the first two weeks of January after falling sick According to an official announcement by her office.

The EU Commission president has been diagnosed with severe pneumonia Queen Ursula is down Severe pneumonia Hmm I don't know on the horizon Could be could be there's no vaccine for HMPV Yet not yet. Not yet Meanwhile in America, we finally latched on to the branding what some people are terming the quad Demick of infectious diseases hitting hard this season joining us now is dr Stephanie Whitmer with more on how to stay healthy doctor. Good morning to you.

It's great to have you Thank you guys for having me Viral syndrome, yeah, I want to jump right into some of the numbers here as we get into it because Covid RSV norovirus making the rounds this winter RSV cases. What when we when they add HMPV will it be the quinn Demick? You're gonna have trouble naming it.

Yeah higher than they were this time of year last year Five states reporting high or very high levels of respiratory illness and the CDC estimates that there have been at least 5.3 million illnesses 63,000 hospitalizations and 2,700 deaths from the flu so far this season that's actually low for flu. That's low Normally, it's 20,000 deaths. So we just mentioned earlier people calling this a quad Demick Is it really an accurate description and how would you explain what's really going on?

So this term quad Demick it refers to the convergence of high levels of just like you said flu Covid RSV and this norovirus and there are multiple factors at play here different social Environmental biologic factors that are causing these numbers that you know in New York It's not unprecedented to see high levels of viral syndromes, especially during the winter when there's indoor crowding increased travel Lots of different gatherings, but there are other factors at play here

such as viral evolution new strains that emerge Lots of different things lots of different things. And this is I have another report here, which is where's this from? From Philadelphia, they bring in a doctor because you know this stuff you got to be careful with this This is this is not just stuff that just is out there You're leaving these clips short because I don't believe you have any of these clips especially from the United States that don't promote Vaccination after the clip is over.

Oh, no, I have it. I mean I if you wanted I'd be Sure, it's there Three more clips from a bit from Good Morning America alone. I mean here you can hear about the prevention So you mentioned some of the remedies there, but what about prevention? So prevention is key One thing that's very important if you haven't gotten your flu vaccine or It is not too late Hand washing is huge with this norovirus. So hand sanitizer may not be a hundred percent effective for norovirus.

So washing your hands Yes, because a lot of these viruses can live on surfaces so washing Things like that are huge for prevention. Yes Sitting there on the surface. Oh, but wait, there's another way you can catch some of these viruses It's a doozy.

We're going to ABC, Philadelphia Well, you may have noticed perhaps in your family at school or at work Lots of people are getting sick these days the holiday gatherings and an uptick in viruses going around this time of year causing a spread And a spike actually news reporter Maggie Kenton joining us now live in with what doctors are saying about this today, Maggie All right. How can you get this stuff?

Well, yeah, as you mentioned Brian as the holiday parties wind down as people stop traveling and get back to work in school Wait, hold on a second The other doctor says everyone's traveling and now this woman says they're not traveling She's not a doctor. Can they make up their minds with their message? She's not a doctor She's just leading into the package. As people stop traveling and get back to work in school That's when we're seeing the uptick of both respiratory and GI illnesses.

Here we go It's time to get back to reality the busy holiday travel rush and party season is winding down But flu COVID and norovirus season. Well, it's spiking. We see it We see these respiratory viruses spread through coughing loud talking Sneezing. Did you hear that? The respiratory virus has spread through coughing and loud talking. I Didn't hear the loud talking COVID and norovirus season. Well, it's spiking. We see it.

We see these respiratory viruses spread through coughing loud-talking sneezing No loud talking no and we need signs We need a mask sign and then a no loud talking sign. Certainly no podcast is that I think that's racist No loud talking But why is that racist because black people in the theater no, they talk loud. Yes. Yes They're always heckling and laughing and joking around Spreading my booming voices. Yes spreading virus Very good assumption there.

Yep So this mania is ludicrous, I don't know anyone who's sick by the way You're the closest and you had this bird flu or whatever it was. I picked it up in Europe You know, I got and you got in Europe. We're just sick. I gave it to Ursula Yeah. Oh, yeah, maybe yeah Do they ever talk about smooching? No, no, but remember that weird. They would say you think they're all the coughing and loud-talking. What about what about kissing on the lips Do you remember?

During kovat when they said you could have sex, but you had you couldn't kiss and you need to have a mask And I don't remember that. Yes. I'm wondering if I still have a clip of the whole thing is ludicrous Yeah, there was something about I think they should bring it into these these discussions. No kissing No kissing no kissing stop it no more kissing brother Don't shake hands with people.

That's how most of it spread You bow learn to bow I did pick up a new meme a new meme that's kind of been around but there it's picking up again regarding the h-1b visa because of course the the media is all saying that well, you know We need to we need to bring people in. You know, these Republicans are crazy. They just hate immigrants They don't like any kind of immigrants.

They're just they're just moving it towards a political narrative but They're now using a great term I think to say to to Let every people everyone know why we need to have h-1b workers Here's a little supercut not because they're cheaper But because they are truly the best and brightest the best and brightest best and brightest Is that a fair characterization?

Certainly some of the best and brightest extraordinarily profitable and the best and brightest and the best and brightest Silicon Valley leaders are calling on the best and the brightest they are the best and the brightest the hardest working really attracts some of our best and brightest best and brightest the world's best and brightest the best and the brightest the best and the brightest the Best and the brightest best and brightest brightest integrate with my best and

brightest hardest working best and brightest from Almost every country in the world.

They are the best and the brightest best and brightest Celebrating the best and the brightest from around the world the best and brightest Welcome the best and the brightest the White House just announced that is bringing in the best and brightest and what we have done year after years open our doors To the best and brightest the best and brightest the best and brightest You know, it's like these we play these clips for the last 10 almost 20 years now It's always of these

of these things and it's just this it's so annoying that they all It's like the mainstream media is no good They're just no good. They dropped the ball I don't know when they dropped the ball, but I think it was way before our show show started We always like kind of picked up on it. Yeah along with everybody else who you know condemns them, but it this has been going on too long There's no creativity. There's no Originality, they all just mock about parrot each other.

Yeah, it's it's it's horrible Are you even watching Jesse waters anymore? Probably not Well, here's the thing I'm just my analysis of Fox in general Fox is got about six shows. They do they do the five they do the Morning show they do bread bar. They do the Jesse waters.

They do Tannedy. They do Laura Terry Ingram, they do all the show each show is identical They have the exact and right at the gut felt you must have just watched gut felt and get a laugh out of it Because every show has got the exact same news story it starts off at the same alert It has the same they have they will have they'll have different guests, but it's the same story Yeah, and so each show just reiterates whatever the other show.

It's just it's it's a horrible network Yeah, I guess if you watch one show you okay if you want to watch one show or it may be even two on Fox that's it. If you watch Fox all day, you're just watching the same material over and over and over just re Repackaged very slightly. It's it's it's terrible. It there's no better than the mainstream media. They are the mainstream media Yeah, they are they are the the ratings reflected everyone's moving to podcast podcast is it baby?

That's where it is That's where you can get your message out open microphone. You can tell everybody that's right and and YouTube is the place to be That's just ask Chris Cuomo Man I'm so I'm so happy we chose this path It's so much better as opposed to what as opposed to having to be posting YouTube shorts I can just see hey John It was a great show.

We just did and it's already posted on YouTube and now we have to do the shorts so And we got to do a couple of tick tocks And we got to do some reels so we can otherwise the algo won't pick it up speaking of which A lot of people up in arms the Elon Musk is changing the algo He's changing the algo there's a scandal going on about the elgo now because they've asked rock about it Yes comics for blogger did that you see now good for him?

Yeah So grok grok revealed the fact that you get up great and down greatest with all the crap that was going on before Elon is still going on and only now it's just skewed differently I will say they that even though my numbers I can't get him I can't get mine at one iota past what mine is. No, there's like it's like they have a limit It's like a day. What's the number on his well, let's limit it at 102.4. What do you have? That's mine. I have 102.4 is me. What Oh 2.4 FM.

I'm it can always at 96.2 Never That's my number and My numbers a little bit higher frequencies a little better frequency a better quality. You're in the classic rock section up there and 1.4. I'm I'm in the NPR level. I'm it's called radio 0.4. Yeah, you're done in PR public radio actually 96.

That's top 40, baby I'm in top 40 land So we had so this so this seems to be that you're right I've noticed this too and it's like it's so it's that's a scam of some sort and they can't do anything about that Well, the big thing is I think if I started from scratch today, I could get my numbers higher Well, the big thing is this this metric called?

unregretted user seconds That's the big metric Which means that you get regretted user seconds when people are engaged with your content but don't engage so if they're not liking if they're not looking at more that means they regretted looking at you and Then you that counts as un as regretted user seconds So they're looking for unregretted user seconds, which forces you to do incredibly high value content Which is the antithesis of? What social media is?

Social media is the narcissists narcissist outlet There's nothing to do with with quality content And it's all the narcissist stuff's the best now. I want to bring it back around to the promise clip I do every I'm gonna do every show until Trump gets actually put in office because according to these people he's not gonna make Yes, yes, the Lulu the Lulu Lulu Lulu say that he's never gonna get and Kamala's gonna be our president So we have the latest this week's the Lulu clip.

I have it right here ready for you to play Okay, is this number two is what this says? Yes, this will be the second of the series. Okay. Yeah, the news is hitting It's looking like It's all right, it's gonna work out for us y'all I've been worried I've been nervous I've been sick every since November 4th, I have not been able to look at TV. I haven't been making videos.

I just had to walk away Today for the very first time I heard on CNN I heard them discussing what is happening and it is turning in our favor guys They are looking at this shit, and they know that it wasn't right. They know that we got cheated. Oh, no, he stole it And they had laid the trap already they already laid the trap and it's coming back Mr. Gardner, thank you so much This is amazing.

We needed this we needed this we need you at this moment and at this time glory to God Mama, we miss you. Where you at? Come on out here. Talk to us This reminds me a bit of the quantum dots Totally the same. It's the same script flipped. It's good. It's set up. It was he was a trap Who was mr. Gardner? Who was that? I don't know. I couldn't figure it out hmm Some guy who came out and I don't know what he said, whatever it was.

She misinterpreted I think I don't know Maybe this all I know is there's a lot of black women making these videos going on and on About how Trump's not getting in there.

There's a few white guys to that one guy I got played before I got a lot of responses to my narcissist Yes, well you should I think it's a thesis that we will continue to To pound home until it goes away at which it won't well, let me lay this on you There is a correlation between narcissism and Marxism While Fundamentally different concept explain while fundamentally different concepts one being socio political ideology in the other psychological

condition There are intersections how they relate to individual identity power dynamics and cultural critiques the discussion often revolves around how societal structures influence personal behaviors and vice versa and there's and there's a lot of Different pieces of research and in fact a very large PDF That I couldn't even get through but yes there's a lot of Research has been done on the connection between these two and it kind of makes sense if you have a very

narcissistic Society, it's probably easier to introduce Marxism into that Why? Why would it be easier?

Well, it seems like if you're if you're completely consumed with yourself and not with anybody else You're just open to doing what people tell you to do for your for your for your brand For your likes, I think I think your basis is is correct I think you might be more susceptible, but I don't know if that's the mechanism Well someone out there knows this stuff because enough people have emailed me about it, but it couldn't quite bring it home for me Let me see I had a let me see that

I have a Guess not No, I'm I'm all over this still. I'm so I think we should yeah No, I knew well you should be because we're gonna get not especially with my clips Yeah, you get nothing but this sort of thing because I just I love it Let's talk about I got a little bit another presentation since the other one failed This was I thought a pretty good rundown on pig butchering PBS finally got a clue finally How long have we been talking about pig butchering?

Two years two years at least Yeah, they find but I thought their summary was pretty decent and they and they really made it more pathetic than it is And it brings back to me The whole idea of where's our law enforcement, especially when you listen to the numbers? Yeah, that are the number not the number of people.

There's hundreds of thousands I guess but just the sheer volume of dollars that have been scammed from the America the worldwide public and Law enforcement's not doing anything about it But they do a bit they do they don't even do a decent job in Oakland of stopping the guy robbing a gas station But this is the law enforcement is not doing its job pig butchering PBS many believe we're living in the golden age of scams Job scams even the most skeptical among us are

falling prey to increasingly sophisticated frauds One particular scam called pig butchering has cost victims around the world an estimated 75 billion dollars in just the last four years I wrote more on what it is and how to avoid it pig butchering investment scams have exploded over the last few years Named for the practice of farmers fattening hogs before slaughter The scheme often starts with a simple hi or a seemingly innocent wrong number text on messaging platforms

like whatsapp Before they catch on victims can lose hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars in 2023 alone Americans reported losing four point six billion dollars to an investment schemes And it's not just the targets that are being harmed the imposters on the other end of the line are often human trafficking victims Forced to run the scheme by large crime syndicates in Asia Aaron West is a former deputy district attorney in Santa Clara County, California

Aaron, thank you so much for being here How do these schemes play out and what sort of psychological tactics do these scammers use to trick people Wow?

Welcome to the party PBS jeez They're fine This is goes you know that I guess I do over the phones a lot But so this happened to well attempt was happened to me on LinkedIn Let me guess let me guess hey How you doing, it's been a while since we met at that conference Cute no, it's actually different profile No, it was different because the pictures are already in LinkedIn of the people Yeah, and so and it was an Asian woman. They talk about in the next clip about this mostly Asian.

Yes, and so they said Pretty Asian girl it that was head of some company or something. Oh, you know, I like your profile Yeah, I think we do business.

I'm It went on and on So I think so I sent back to her says I don't know what kind of business you think I'm in but you know What tell me more so I love one of the leader on this It's like so I but her I found what company she was with and I looked it up on LinkedIn and there was a bunch of people Different names from that company because you can do a reverse search just company only and many of them had her same picture with different names So I mean this was so obvious pretty

obvious, yeah, and so you can mention it to her like yeah, you know You look just like this other woman almost identical. In fact, the photos like exactly the same Is that you and then you did book click? So I had a I've been getting these phone calls another scam as goes on it was his phone calls and this could keep calling about PG&E giving me a discount on my bill and $50 return and so the latest one which just has happened in the last couple of days is a Recording that comes on.

It's a it's a or it's a phony voice a AI voice that says are you there? Are you there And it keeps repeating this until you say yes. Hello and then click No, and then it goes. Hi. Hi. I'm Ellen or whoever it is from PG &E We want to give you a discount on your bill. Is that something you want? Yes. Oh Let me send you to our Hold on. Well, I transfer the call. That's not majoring. That's not pig butcher.

No, I know but I'm just talking about general this is the age of scams and These these the pig butchers do the same thing when it comes to how you respond So the guy comes on he says you got a discount coming got 120 bucks do He says, how would you like it? How would you like the money? Would you like it and your credit card or your checking account? How would you like it?

Yeah, and so I wish I had I gotta start recording these cuz it did hate cuz I say Oh, we'll just put it on my bill as a credit click It was like this thing. But that's just a regular scam here. I'm gonna read a few from my for my text messages Hey long time now see how you feeling these days. No, these real. Yeah, these are real. Yeah Yeah, here's another one good morning, do you have any new plans today From who well, it's just random numbers Here's one that just says hello.

These are all yeah what you're described. These are all prop potential pig butchering Potential these are pig butchering number messages. Did you have a rest today? I didn't see you at the meeting That's a good one, that's a good one. Let me see what There's a lot of Recruiter type things.

I mean you get at least one a day if not more Really, but I know why I know this So what never really once the political messages went away that my number got sold to the pig butchering people And I'm sure that most of the political texts were scams as well. Yeah, a lot of them. I'm sure most of them are Let me see if I can find another one this quickly because I Miss the meeting. I'd like to miss the meeting one What's this? Wow, I can't believe what is this?

No, that's not one Why did you skip the morning meeting That's a good one, that's pretty good a lot of it just hello and usually it's like do you want to play tennis? Are we still on for tennis today? Yeah, well, let's get to your next clip, okay, big to the way victims are usually contacted is they receive What appears to be a wrong number text?

Yeah, and those have gotten increasingly clever They're doing anything they can to just get your attention long enough to respond so that they can drop in a picture of Usually an attractive young Asian female who will say hi. My name is Jessica. I hope I'm not bothering you We're finding that people will respond to that and they will start engaging in conversation with a Jessica Who over the next 90 days will sell a dream of being with her and her?

Fancy elevated lifestyle and then what happens over time is they get these victims to invest in cryptocurrency Like the scammer purports that she did that's how she became wealthy and our victims will invest a little bit and they will see it They'll see a false dashboard showing their Exponential increase in value and that will lead them to invest more and more until ultimately They have invested every penny they have they believe they're rich and that they're gonna end up with the girl Only to

find out that it was all a facade and they've lost everything. So here's one Hey, we didn't meet for a long time. Where where are you live right now? Where are you I'm gonna answer this one answer this one I'll say I live in Austin now. Who's this? Okay, I'll just hit that Let's see if we get a response and then we'll listen to pig three in the meantime What do we know about where these scams are coming from and who's behind them?

What we know is that these scams are coming primarily from Southeast Asia They're being run by primarily Chinese organized crime Although the Yakuza has now gotten involved in Korean organized crime after seeing how lucrative this is They've built compounds that are akin to small cities Built for the express purpose of fleecing the rest of the world of their money It's massive and growing the target also isn't always the only victim here The people who are on the other end of the phone or the

computer are also in many cases Victims of human trafficking themselves. How does that play into all of this?

We have literally never seen a world crisis like this We've got Americans and people all over the world who've lost all their money and then on the other side We have human trafficked victims that are forced to do this dirty work in order to fill these Compounds where the dirty work is done The organized criminals needed to bring in a workforce and to do that Constructed websites that look very authentic and they offer up jobs in Southeast Asia And so people from all over

apply for these jobs thinking they're getting a really nice Work opportunity and when they get there their passports are seized They're put in buses and they are moved to these compounds where they are Surrounded with men with ak -47s and they are locked down and forced to do this dirty work 17 hours a day Dirty work. So this phone number is no longer in service. That's a bummer. Here's another one Hey long time. No, see, how are you feeling these days? I'm doing great. Who is this?

See if that one works So after this like the third clip, there's a big series of discussions of how they beat the crap out of these poor slaves Yeah, and it goes on and on and then we had we find it finish it up with this last clip But this whole thing is like this has to be state-sponsored at some even though it's gangs There's no way that people can do this without some corruption at the state level Well, I got a hit I can see the person is typing back to me Well, let's get to that before

we played the last clip. Well, it's started. Okay, let's play a last clip Yeah, we'll see if we get an answer.

Yeah, this era is not the time to be making new friends on social media That's the final really Social media is by far the problem is text message this this is the big problem and and it's all the yes, you're right, there's a lot of Companies and organizations particularly in states where this is not well regulated and they let anybody into the phone network You know, it's the S is system 7. That's the whole problem system 7 once you're in there You couldn't make up numbers.

You can send as many different text messages as you want and just go on and on and on That's what it is You should also be stopped at that level. You should also probably have to give up on this international stuff Yes, just cut it off. Yep Cut off international text cut off international contact Cut it off Ah Get a sat phone if you want to talk to someone overseas back to ham radio people So, I don't know this person was typing and now I've got no message I don't know if I got hit in the head.

I want to talk about musk for a second Because he's he's doing stuff he's doing stuff out in the world and And it's and it's being noticed by international media.

Here's Deutsche Bella We'll take building there Elon Musk is planning a live online discussion next week with the candidate for Chancellor of the far-right alternative for Germany party Alice vital the chat is expected to take place on musk's platform X It is his latest endorsement of the AFD ahead of Germany's general election on February 23rd Last weekend musk caused outrage when he described the far-right party as the country's last Spark of hope and an

opinion piece in a German newspaper political leaders in Germany have accused him of election interference Considering his close relationship with US President elect Donald Trump So that was Deutsche Bella the BBC went in a little bit deeper on this the Chancellor Olaf Schultz told a German magazine He's staying cool about Elon Musk's activities He added it's the will of citizens that counts not the erratic statements of a billionaire Elon Musk has previously described him as a

fool and recently penned a controversial opinion piece endorsing Alternativa for Deutschland or the AFD the AFD is a far-right party That's even classed as extremist in certain German states by domestic intelligence Mr. Musk dismissed such allegations and claimed he'd earned the right to speak out on German politics because of his significant investments in the EU's largest economy Notably, mr Musk's electric car making brand Tesla has a huge factory in the eastern state of Brandenburg just

outside Berlin Now this coming week.

Mr Musk is expected to hold a live online discussion with the AFD's candidate for Chancellor Alice Weidel This all comes just weeks ahead of Germany's snap federal election The vote will take place on February the 23rd following the collapse of Germany's bickering three-way Coalition that comprised of Chancellor Schultz's Social Democrats the Greens and the FDP liberals the AFD Despite polling second has little prospect of taking power because other parties won't work with it Well, Olaf

Schultz's chances of retaining the chancellery have long looked slim Nevertheless, Germany looks set to be the next electoral testing ground for Elon Musk's apparent willingness to wade in to national politics Elon Musk has also Tweeted out slashed out to King Charles that he should dissolve this Parliament and Nigel Farage should be removed as the head of the Freedom Party Freedom Party. Is that his party? Because Raj yes, he's he's all he's all against Farage now.

Well, that's interesting What it would brought that about I wonder the rape of Britain Because Farage said something was okay So Tommy Robinson Who of course brought this to light, but I think he's in jail now for for ten years because he's such a dangerous guy He's in and out of jail. Very very dangerous. Supposedly.

Yes. I don't know that he's ever been either Sir, Brian of London knows though You know, he's the one that said, you know, these Pakistani gangs were raping, you know up to 250,000 girls up in the north of England From the late 80s into the but maybe into the 2000s till now and And so Nigel Farage isn't either isn't taking that Seriously enough or you know, and so what this does is it breeds all kinds of other theories?

One of the theories being that just like Elon is now going to ouster We'll see if it happens Farage that eventually he and Peter Thiel And in all the JD Vance gang, they're all gonna turn on Trump and get him kicked out. Yeah I know it's great It's great But why well Why Musk is what why is he doing this? Why what is he?

Well, that's what I'm saying I was gonna say it's starting to look more and more like some sort of that You know, we say it too often on this show, but this is starting to look like some sort of a psyop And must seems to be representing something. I mean, there's no reason for him to be doing so much at that Political stuff as he's doing unless he's like being run by someone but who?

Well, I would have to think that if we only knew yes Yes, if we only knew if we only knew we only knew but he's definitely out there. He's risking his life he's causing trouble here and there and Entertaining as hell. Mm-hmm. I Just some of it doesn't make sense the Farage things one of them, but you know, who knows Farage's fishy character anyway, and Tommy Robinson's a fishy character.

This everything is sketchy Well, how about the typhoon gangs we have all this salt typhoon we've got the The Flax typhoon I think is the latest this one this made the news But I think because of you know The cyber trucker and New Orleans and no one really paid much attention to it except our man Ali Velshi over there at MSNBC.

I want to turn now to a hugely consequential but largely overlooked story That's been unwinding this week in dramatic fashion China's escalating cyber espionage campaign against the US and its allies on Friday the US announced sanctions against China's Integrity technology group a Beijing based cyber security firm over its alleged links to the hacking group flax Typhoon, which has been accused of carrying out a litany of cyber attacks on Americans in recent weeks American officials accused the

company of providing the infrastructure that enabled Chinese hackers to launch attacks against US targets The announcement of the sanctions comes after the US Treasury Department disclosed earlier this week that flax typhoon had stolen Unclassified documents and what it described as a major incident flax typhoon specifically targeted a highly sensitive office at Treasury the Office of Foreign Assets Control or OFAC which administers economic sanctions It's a key tool in

America's national security arsenal the attack also targeted the office of Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen OFAC's targeting underscores Beijing's determination to acquire intelligence on its biggest rival According to officials who spoke to The Washington Post China's growing cyber espionage operations which FBI director Christopher Wray called the most significant cyber espionage campaign in history largely flew under the radar in 2024 but experts warn that such attacks are likely to increase

as Beijing seeks to gain a competitive advantage in technology economics and security Okay What happened to Seoul typhoon?

Well, this is the flax typhoon This is the same typhoon group only it's a different strain and then he brings on Brings on a a Yale senior fellow from the Yale Law University Something would be let Yale Law School Yale Law School a cyber a cyber crime expert I think we're entering a period where cyber attacks are ramping up for sure as the US and China Enter a period of uncertainty in their relationship, but what's notable here is the level of sophistication We're seeing by Chinese hackers.

You mentioned the dizzying array of salt typhoon flax typhoon We also have volt typhoon which the Chinese malicious actors were Pre-positioning critical infrastructure saying in the event of a conflict we can shut down power and water systems Right now I think we're in a period of potentially Significant Uncertainty in the relationship and China's capabilities have certainly improved in ways that

are very concerning to u.s. Officials Yeah, bolt typhoon you just talked about this is interesting when we talk about a major conflict at the moment We've got a potential trade war with China What does major conflict mean does that mean if China goes into Taiwan and the u.s. Decides?

It's gonna stand up for typhoon for Taiwan that China has potential ability to disrupt Infrastructure in America We have to look at cyber attacks as an extension of military power and in the event of an armed Confrontation between the US and Chinese militaries.

I think that cyber tools would certainly be on the table and by By showing up in utilities companies that are in places like Guam the West Coast What this signals is that in the event of a conflict those West Coast assets would very much be in play And cyber is going to work in conjunction with sort of traditional military Powers and so this is something that we have to be very cognizant of There you go. So we have salt fault vault and flax typhoon and I don't know what to make of any of that.

Okay have an update on my pig butchering. Oh Good. Okay. Okay, so I sent you got a note. Yeah, I said I Said odd, I don't have you my address book. I was baiting a little bit. Oh, I'm sorry I may have sent you a message to the wrong number. Oh clearly. There we go. That's the wrong number I hope you don't mind my mistake. So I said not at all. No prob and The pig butcher says thank you for your understanding. I think you are a friendly person.

I'm glad to meet you So, of course, I say nice to meet you too. LOL and Then the pig butcher comes back nice to meet you here. My name is Lena if you don't mind May I know your name? My name is John Dvorak. Nice to meet you. Yeah And we'll have an update on that right after I say in the morning to you the man who put the C in the China Cybercrime say hello to my friend on the other end the one the only mr.

John C Kramer ship seabass and graph in the air subs of the one of the dames and knights out there in the morning We have 2498 trolls that is not bad. Oh, by the way. No, that's exactly what we know. It's a hundred more It's a hundred more. No, no 2400 is Thursday, but it's About this every show because it's 2498 that's almost 2,500 I said within range, by the way, the pig butcher says you have a good name John Dvorak What do I answer to that Why thank you Why thank you Do you have a pick?

move it along I Don't want to do I want to see if if Lina does that if she'll say it'll get the pick ball rolling Send them to my PO box, baby Hey, those trolls are hanging out in the troll room troll room.io And I'm sure that people are checking in because they wanted to hear you know What we provide a public service the service we provide as we spin you down Although in this case I again I was very proud of most of our producers They were not buying any of this any of it They identified the

six was too corny. It was really too corny and then they and it was also just Distressing than that people did die. No, thanks to the botched job that was done by whoever is writing this game, right?

but of course our government doesn't care you know and that that was really Tina made a good point about the the fog the weird fog She's already over it is but she said people have lost all trust in government and That's why they immediately go into well I'm sure the government spraying us with something or this, you know, so it's it's a sad state of affairs really But I kind of addressed this in the last newsletter Yeah, where I said if they if they

would actually do because Biden is the president of the United States And the president sets the stage for everything. They are the Social a center of things they are the ones who establish norms I mean if it was if it wasn't for Bill Clinton All these high school girls wouldn't be in to give me so many blowjobs because it Clinton says not sex And it made a huge difference in the in that community.

And so it By the fact that Biden has really never even given a true press conference Yeah, this is four years and he hides behind, you know These various press secretaries the redhead and the and the one that looks like side show Bob Whose way who's sideshow Bob is that John Pierre? She looks just like sideshow Bob Who is sideshow Bob? It's a Simpsons character. Oh, I don't even know sideshow Well, look at my book.

You'll see the picture of sideshow Bob when you look it up and you'll see what I'm talking about Okay, so Bob this ludicrous situation that there are present has created He nailed it it's the hair Oh That's a good one Okay, I didn't realize that one. Okay. So very good. It's created this situation So nobody trusts the government. They never tell us anything about anything. They don't even try to explain it They don't have any solid rationales. They give us nothing.

And so you end up with this situation. It's out of control. Yeah yeah, you're right and That's like the drones that's why it's so easy to launch anti-gravitic Gravity Brother and those trolls are listening at troll room.io They check in for the service that we provide and we provide that twice a week at least three hours We're deconstructing the media just for you.

We don't sit here and try to jack up the algos We don't need to scare you with anything because it doesn't work on podcasting doesn't you know, we don't get more people listening We don't go to the top of the page magically We we're here because you heard about us from somebody else typically That's why we also Really don't do any ads and why would we ever do an ad if if it restricts our speech?

I said I live in New Jersey, New Jersey a beautiful place.

I will travel there if I have the chance Maybe we can have coffee together when I get there Brother, this is a long game. I don't have patience for it.

Yeah, they will like they said in that Nine up to nine months in some cases send nudes You just put that in there let's cut to the chase cut to the chase lady I'm not gonna do that Actually, I should but first we got to thank these trolls and let them know that they can be joined by anybody out there by Going to troll room dot IO we do the show live.

We stream it live right after the show We put it together, which means we'll insert that clip that I messed up and we'll put that in no one will know the difference except the people who heard it live and And then we get a title we put the credits together and then we post it and if you're using a modern podcast app You'll get the bat signal You'll know when we go live and if you can't listen to it live within 90 seconds of us posting it you'll get You'll get an

No smashing the like button None of that you have to do any of that Just listen to the show and if there's anything of any value send it back to us or if you just want to send value in advance time talent treasure We will be thanking people who sent us the treasure portion, which is very it's a paramount and it was not a lot today I'll be honest about that. No, it was terrible.

I think it was that newsletter No, I I think it was the last show people like the last show and so they didn't donate I Know it makes no sense to me either, but I think people like the last show.

You don't think that's what I said I said they like the last show so they decided not to donate The top of the game right now, I might as well let him go Hey, it's a real it's a real easy equation You well, the other thing is since we had once in a while I like to do the bonus clip Oh, you have a bonus play the bonus clip weather storm coming.

Yes I can't wait millions of Americans are bracing for a winter storm that will send temperatures plunging and disrupt travel the National Weather Service Forecasts the storm will begin this evening in the Central Plains and then move east and slam into the Mid-Atlantic Heavy snow and whiteout conditions are expected in the Midwest while freezing rain could lead to power outages across Appalachia you are also supposed to get it here in Texas people don't donate when

there's getting a hit by a storm That's a good point when it's cold like But we keep you warm on this cold wintry months, and we'll still be there on your fingers It will still be there on your phone And we will be there One of the ways people support us is through artwork we love having fresh artwork on every single episode We've been doing that since almost the beginning of the show and people can upload it to know agenda art generator comm Another website that was done value for value by sir.

Paul couture the artwork for episode 1725 wait no 1726 where am I? Hello? So we're 1726. That's interesting 1726 Hmm did I not put that one up there? What's on the agenda show dotnet? Yeah, let me see 1726 We titled that one the fog.

Ah yes, we titled the fog for obvious reasons the artwork Was a genius piece done by sir shug aka faux diddly it was the lone wolf Eevee terror club Which consisted of a lone wolf nice lone wolf logo in the background Yeah, and what you just had you right with the Eevee miss pump in the middle and two Evie's it looks like something that actually exists in real life It does it does and it's something that I we don't think was put together by AI It had the cyber truck there on one side.

It had the F-150 lightning on the other side I Would say if we had ads on this show, we would not have chosen that artwork Out of why because it was too early. It was too soon It's highly offensive. We're mocking death and destruction Well, I guess we are marking it a little bit or shoot was anyway. Yeah. Well, we great logo though.

Yeah, it was very good Be a nice patch It would be a nice patch, how about you know agenda shop no agenda shop calm There were some other entrants that we looked at there were multiple fog Tantaniel that I thought she her I liked her concept of the no agenda creative or act just in fog There was but I mean compared to the lone wolf Eevee terror club It didn't quite that there was just wasn't there.

Well the piece that we both thought was terrific was Mike Riley Mike Riley's second version of the no agenda Isis flag the upside -down version Absolutely, terrific Except it didn't have creative or on there anywhere.

That was problem number one That was problem number one, but problem number two was we weren't going to use it Because if you don't know I mean so So it has the Isis font and says live from Gitmo nation in the little rounds kind of kind of circle ish thing and then no Agenda, then if you post it upside down, it looks kind of like an Isis flag with Isis text But we were pretty convinced people wouldn't see it.

They wouldn't get it They wouldn't get it because it says now we're gonna use the other one, which was obvious is original one before I flipped it upside down Yeah Yeah, cuz that was just you know, okay, it's interesting but not that good but up flipped upside down It's dynamite, but not usable, but we wanted to make sure we discussed it.

So Riley knows that he did good work He did good work And I and I will say I like Darren O'Neill's life raft too because we are the life raft in an ocean of narcissism yeah, I was almost gonna use that for the Newsletter but instead I used a different Darren O'Neill piece Which is the one I've always had my eye on which was the cartoon Sick bird with the thermometer in his mouth, which I thought was a cute piece.

It is it is a cute piece No agenda art generator comm is where you can follow along You can upload your own artwork and participate in the contest. And of course, you can see all of the other pieces If you're using the modern podcast app I use podcast guru these days You can see them in the chapters and you'll see and if you're driving along you use CarPlay or Android Auto It'll change right there in your dashboard.

You'll be delighted and it's dangerous when driving No agenda art generator calm.

We always thank all of our financial contributors That's producers who sent us some treasure value in return $50 and above and at this point in the show We want to thank our executive and associate executive producers The way that works is just like Hollywood if you pony up the dough You got a credit you get a credit big on the screen in this case Associate executive producer if you donate $200 or above and we'll read your note regardless of what it says although we

Hey, baby Hey, I'm an executive producer for the no agenda show. Oh, really?

Yeah, send nudes So we start off with our first exam, you know, by the way, I should mention about the pig butchering They made it sound in the PBS report that it's only men who are susceptible to this Do I wonder if women plenty of women have been taken for all their worth? Do you know this for a fact?

Yeah, because I saw a special on TV issue with some woman who was moaning and groaning about being taken By the way, why wouldn't you take the women you I mean, they're just as susceptible as being suckered as men are Lena was originally from China, but it's been six years since she moved to Boston for work Wow They make this very elaborate.

Well, it's almost believable Lena Is coming next I mean the pig better show up pretty soon or you're gonna you should bail out Yeah, well, it's because that's why she mentioned now that she's that she's Asian because the pig has come All right, so you'd not get you're not gonna go Asian chick. Yeah, you're gonna be ready for it Hey our first executive producer is from oh by the way, let's run that pick through the reverse image search Yeah, good point.

Go to no agenda donations calm and thank you to our executive Our formula is this we go out we hit people in the mouth Yes Yes No, I was gonna say you want I would like to go through the US steel buyout. Yeah, so we can get People a prize. This is a big deal, huh?

Well, I think it's a big deal because they should let him buy him out because the Nippon Steel is not a bad company They're Japanese They're fighting with the Chinese the way we are and the Chinese are gonna be the crap out of us with steel if we don't do Something now, is this something that Trump would seeing as Joe Biden?

No, Trump said, well, you know, it's not American battery We made some fuss about it So Biden made a fuss about it and it was all because it's Pennsylvania's the headquarter where the big steel mills are They didn't want to annoy any of the workers, but the workers are all for it. Really? Well, why wouldn't they be it's just a better company than the operation being run? It currently is basically going out of business Let's play u.s. Steel buyout one u

.s Steel is an iconic American brand founded by legendary business leaders Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan in 1901 It still holds up the Empire State Building and San Francisco Bay Bridge And it helped build the American ships tanks and aircraft that won World War two in December 2023 Nippon Steel announced it would buy u.s Steel for more than 14 billion dollars and has recently promised to invest a billion dollars into u.s Steel mills, but

during the presidential campaign both candidates opposed the deal a senior administration Official told me today that the committee that reviews foreign investments in the u.s Split with the Treasury Defense and State Departments in favor of the deal

But the u.s. Trade Representative opposed sending the decision to the White House leading to today's decision for perspective on that decision We turned to David Wessel senior fellow in economic studies at the Brookings Institution and Sheila Smith Fellow for Asia-Pacific Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations Thanks very much to both of you.

Welcome back to the news hour David Wessel Let me start with you as I just said the committee that reviews Investments in the United States don't Assyrius split between the national security agencies saying that they approve the deal and the u.s Trade representative saying that it opposed this deal. What does that say about today's decision?

Well, it's pretty striking because the only power the president had to block this deal was to say it was a threat to national security But because the committee split he essentially overrode the national security Apparatus and the Treasury but says to me is this is a largely political decision both President Trump and President Biden have stressed the importance of making it in America Both of them were courting the Steelworkers Union in Pennsylvania And so this seems

to me largely a decision made on political grounds not economic grounds. Hmm Well, there's no there's no election who cares Well at this point, well Biden's he doesn't know what he's doing. He's not doing any of this No, somebody else's. Yeah someone who I'm not sure who the US trade was the one person is trade representative What is it? Why they have more power than the than all the intel agencies? It doesn't make a lot of sense I don't know.

I think this is gonna end up going through but we'll see Part two after all the president said that a domestically owned and operated steel industry is Important to national security, but what Nippon Steel was saying is we're still gonna make it in the United States The owners will just be Japanese which last time I checked was an ally of the United States not an adversary So Sheila Smith there has been no official Japanese response to this announcement, but what were the Japanese Expecting

leading up to this response.

Well, Nick I think this is a drama that has been unfolding as you said for over a year and Initially, I think the Japanese government in particular was quite quiet They didn't want to get into the fray and they understand that it was a presidential election year But I think as we're getting as we got closer to the end of last year in the last couple of weeks I think there was an effort to really speak out Prime Minister Ishiba said that he hoped that this would go through this is in

the interest of both countries the vice minister of the Ministry of External Trade and in industry was a little bit more pointed and said this will affect future Japanese companies who are thinking about investing in the United States, so I think the politics Clearly was on the minds of most Japanese observers I think it's also important to recognize that many Americans don't recognize Just how vital foreign direct investment is to the United States not just from

Japan, but from our European friends as well Japan is one of the top countries from for inbound foreign direct investment In fact, it was I think in 2023 about seven hundred and eighty three billion dollars And so this inward foreign direct investment is largely in the manufacturing sector And so is very helpful to the through the American economy I you know, I think we should we should sell it to the Japanese, but only if they pay for it in Bitcoin Yeah, so we can

put that in the Bitcoin reserve. I don't think they're gonna want to pay for it It's bleep that they got some and the thing is, you know, they're yen is so under Just like in the tank. Yeah that They're really that would they whatever they pay for it is good is from their perspective. It's got to be a lot more It's like 50% more than they would have normally paid for if the yen was strong.

It's not I Don't see why we just don't say yeah We know we have had nothing but the United States has had nothing but good luck with Japanese investments What name some other ones?

well when they bought Rockefeller Center spent all that money on rock run on Rockefeller Center and then Because of the downturn in the climate they just basically walked away from the deal and left them to hold that left all that money on the table and we ended up Scarfing it up all the investments they made in Hawaii that they lost their asses on they lose their asses To benefit us I don't see what the problem is I'm not making a problem Well, they've the

Biden administration is I think Trump will You think he'll he'll next he'll Keep the deal going. Well, I Think it's gonna be based on whether the workers want it or not And I think they do those I think that three indicates that and what's ironic about this Is that a combined Nippon u.s. Steel would have been a formidable competitor to the big Chinese steel Makers and those are the ones that have been the target of so much animosity both from u.s Steelmakers and

u.s. Policymakers Sheila Smith, of course that leads us to the u.s. Strategy on China, which has been based largely on creating alliances enhancing alliances not only between Washington and East Asian countries including Japan but between East Asian countries from Japan and South Korea all the way down to Australia and the Philippines and a senior administration official who works on that strategy told me today quote I am quite troubled by this decision Do you believe

this decision challenges the u.s. Strategy in Asia? I think it challenges u.s. Strategy writ large But particularly in the Indo-pacific where we're watching China really exerted influence across maritime Asia But also really sort of engage in far more Extensive economic coercion against our friends and allies in the region as well.

So I think you know, there's a tension here Nick I think it's important to To see in this deal the specifics of the deal aside this is a time when United States is asking its allies partners and friends to do more to enhance the competitiveness of those of Countries that are competing with China this larger strategic competition will define the coming the last part of our century hmm Okay Oh People up so it's a news item.

Yes. Well since we're doing foreign policy, I have some Greenland clips Good. I'd like to hear some Greenland clips. Yes, by the way, Lena is 34 and she's single and she is just curious if I'm single or married and sent me a smiley emoji with the tongue hanging out I She's taking longer than to send a pic.

I know I so I said a divorced and I know here's what it is Let me be on the other side of this So they're looking you over as a pot potential pig Yes And they want to get as much details and so they can give a customized picture of someone they think you would probably go for Yes, well, she's sorry to hear about my divorce I'm 47 and divorced in this game So Jason Chavis was sitting in for Maria on the Fox Business News Yes, this is the C team guy.

He's Christmas vacation week and By the way, and everybody's not working. No, everybody's not working. That's correct. That's there's your English and he interviewed a former ambassador, uh What's his name Robert O 'Brien who was a Trump national security advisor about Greenland The president Trump's also talking actively about Greenland. What's the latest there?

Well, the latest is Greenland is a highway from the Arctic all the way to North America to the United States it's strategically very important to the Arctic which is going to be a critical battleground of the future because as the climate gets warmer the the Arctic is gonna be a Pathway that maybe maybe even cuts down the on the usage of the Panama Canal And the Russians and Chinese are all over the Arctic now the day the government the kingdom of Denmark owns Greenland

and they've got an obligation to defend Greenland And so president Trump said if you don't defend Greenland, we'll buy it and we'll defend it but we're not going to defend it for free and let you you know and not develop Greenland and not not extract the minerals and oil and and resources of Greenland and While we defend it Denmark gets rich and the king of Denmark, you know becomes even wealthier Okay, so that was the most lame analysis I've heard That's the pitch. There's a little more here.

Denmark is now on the front lines of the war against Russia and China They're like the Baltic States So I pull it because of their their vast territory in Greenland And so they've got to defend Greenland And if they can't defend it, we're gonna have to and we're not gonna do it for free So the Danes can either put the frigate that's necessary there they can put the air wings and put the missiles in Greenland and they can put the infantry there that they need to defend the country or Sell out

to us and I believe in this so they're creating a false scenario Yes, as if China and Russia want to get get Greenland So they'll take it over if they have to but when did this idea come into play never? well The Prime Minister of Greenland mood to egg No, yeah, he's just a dick that guy. Well, he says he's now calling for independence From Denmark.

Oh, that's a winner And he's and he's and he's looking for investments and he's he's this is a very short clip he was literally standing next to Ursula and I'm sure Ursula picked up the pneumonia from him and And she's standing next to him Probably because she doesn't you know, I'm gonna let Trump by you come talk to us, you know You should be one of our guys here in Greenland. We need to have some growth.

We need to have some economic growth and diversify our economy and Of course, we welcome our strong partners and like-minded nations as first But if they don't invest there's a lot of companies who also want to to invest in this country Sounds to me like he's saying well, you know the Russians want to invest the Chinese want to invest So, you know like I think he's playing the game he's he's he's That to me spelled out.

Okay, we're open for conversation here It's not his business is Denmark's business. Who's this guy kidding? He says he would they he wants Gavin Newsom all of a sudden starting to push back. You know, we we can do what we want We can maybe let the Russians run, California. Oh, please kidding. Oh, please could Russia buy, California. That would be great, California Put up a wall Block everything off. That would be great.

I do have that same That same ambassador about Panama if you want to hear the same guy same guy the guy from Greenland No, no, the the ambassador the Ambassador dipshit that was that guy So he he explains what the real problem is that Trump has with the Panama Canal. I also want to ask you about China's role in the Panama Canal because almost seemingly out of nowhere You've got Donald Trump talking about the Panama Canal. I didn't see many stories written about that last year. What?

Why why the sudden urgency in taking on the Panama Canal? Well, Jason as you know, the Panama Canal is one of the you know, engineering achievements of the Stop I did see this guy now. I don't know if I saw this particularly but he's been floating around the guy sounds plastered Well, Jason as you know, the Panama Canal is one of the you know engineering achievements of Yeah, right there the last Millennia and by the way, that's what you do as ambassador.

You don't actually do any work as ambassador. Do you? You drink a lot. You have a lot of parties by the way television tip the diplomat Have you seen this series the diplomat? No, it's with Carrie What's her name? She was in the Americans Give us a background. What's the story about?

Carrie Russell She's a diplomat US diplomat and they're courting her to be the vice president because it's very much it's very modern So, you know, it's right after the Afghanistan pullout and they've got an old coot for president who's supposed to be Biden, I guess and but he has a vice president who's female and She's about to be kicked off out of the White House because her husband has some financial scandal They're looking for someone that she's on the shortlist, but they it's a try her out.

They make her ambassador to London and And the story unfolds from there and there's it's not on not just drinking that she does She's involved in very heavy diplomacy, but it's a very good series Well, I've been watching the agency. Yes, that's Clooney's a spy show, right? Yeah It's you know, I couldn't get Mimi to watch it cuz she watched one episode said it was any slow this is This I have to agree. I mean I still watch it, but it's too slow slow Film guys film guys film guys doing television.

It's never a good idea Yeah, you might be right. Yeah. All right back work back to the the Panama Canal bit. Well, Jason as you know, the Panama Canal is one of the you know engineering achievements of the the last millennia and we built it we paid for it and we operated it for many years and then in a Tremendous act of generosity. It was it was probably foolish.

Jimmy Carter gave the cow back to the Panamanians, but it wasn't a just a free gift their conditions that the canal remained neutral And so what the the Panamanians have done and generally we love the Panamanians or they're good people.

They're friends of America but they gave the the ports on both ends of the canal to the Chinese and Even the New York Times is saying, you know Which has been an apologist for China for years is saying that the Chinese are committed espionage or they could shut down the canal without military efforts Just using these Hong Kong companies that control the canal and then on top of that they're raising the prices on American shipping so 75% of our The commerce that goes

to the cow ends up at American ports or departs from American ports and they're ripping us off and so the idea that they've given the canal to China basically and in essence and Our charges high prices and the Chinese are taking that news and that money to build their own military up That doesn't work for America anymore Hmm. Yeah What it is That's the argument. Yeah, there was a big stink when that happened if it was years ago in the Chinese Panamanians are mad.

They are really mad at Trump there. Well, that's what we're told happened Yeah, well, sir, Marcus, let's find out do we have do we have anybody? Yes. Yes. We have sir marks or Mark Hall He's Mark Hall doesn't live in Panama He go he was born in Panama has has an apartment in Panama has business in Panama travels to Panama He has boots. He gets me. I've remitted from pain from Panama. He has boots on the ground in Panama He says and he's actually kind of mad It's like why is Trump doing this?

This will drive us right into the arms of China the CCP like Peru, whatever he said Yeah, they're mad boots on the ground. The Panamanians are mad that Trump said this they don't like it Well, I think this needs more Exploration on our part. Well, does he? Okay, I will forward you the emails. He has a lot of emails and he's mad too He doesn't like it because this is what got us in the trouble the first time there What was the first time I don't know I was Nicaragua Iran Contra.

Yeah stuff like that. There's still some bad blood They didn't like then like how we did all that. Well as we do what we do Yes, this is the problem people have realized we do what we do exactly That to wind this up. I have two clips from the BBC By the way, this may just be Trump negotiating price. No, I think so. I think it's all negotiating price all of it All that's what he does. He's very quiet these days. Don't you think he's kind of quiet?

No, he hasn't let's take the heat right We 2025 ushers in a new era a new generation Are you familiar with the new generation? No generation beta Anyone born in the year 2025 will become generation gonna be the mark marker for the new after alpha Yes after alpha is a beta or beta cuck.

It's beta generation beta are people born between 2025 and 2039 so babies born from the 1st of January this year are the first the Gen B's by 2035 they will make up 16% of the global population and most of the members of this generation are Actually expected to live well into the 22nd century as well.

I was gonna say that the first generation that will belong to the next Century, I guess they're gonna have a life pretty much dominated by AI we would have from our vantage point now You would think anyway, especially now.

Yeah with like kind of technology such as artificial intelligence is quickly developing right now So in the next few decades, it's only going to further advance and they'll be growing up with that technology as well It'll be similar to kind of how gen alpha would dub the iPad kids due to how that technology had an impact on their childhoods And it'll be interesting to see that relationship develop in the decades to come So we've got Gen B to now taking over from Gen Alpha,

I'm Gen X 1973 I suspect you're millennial you sound I'm guessing I'm gonna put money on you being a millennial I'm Gen Z, but I'll take millennial as a compliment Sounds like the Gen Z years aren't that happy about being Gen Z We have another clip and what are the sort of you know, does it mean anything? I suppose is what I'm gonna say that people are born, you know in similar periods gonna have different experiences of life I suppose what else do we take from these labels?

I guess with kind of like technology nowadays, especially like Gen Z and Gen Alpha and Obviously with Gen B to social media plays such a huge aspect in connecting with people So I think in terms of the generations when you look at the differences in like growing up that that's had a huge impact on how we communicate with people and Their kind of experiences in society. Yeah, and I guess in the end, it's a useful label, isn't it?

And the the cutoff date is a bit arbitrary But it's a useful label to describe who we're talking about without needing to give the date of birth out Yeah, exactly.

So if you want to give your age away, it's always a good indicator What's been the reaction online to the name Gen B to the people like that So overall there's been a lot of reaction on social media I think with this new generation It makes us all reflect on where we are in life Like coming to terms with the fact that we're all getting old and there's like a new generation of youngsters And I think Gen Z have taken it particularly hard with some of them saying they're officially like the

new Millennials and then there's kind of like references to like the 2024 horror film The Substance which kind of tackles the topic of aging and then you have like people making fun of the name kind of Gen Beta due to like the negative connotations of the word beta Which is a slang term for someone who's kind of perceived to be weak It's kind of the opposite about So people have been joking that like Gen Beta are gonna have these characteristics Some people that were

joking about how people rushing to have babies before 2025. So the children were Gen Alpha and not Gen Beta You know what I find kind of semi just you know, I used to write for PC magazine UK And so I spent like a decade. I was there a couple times a year And it would concerns me about this particular report is they always use you know, said it we say beta So they're a beta tester and they'd always say beta. Yes, but then they'd also say Zed They never said Z. No.

Oh, why are they saying Z in that report? Why is that generation said that's a very good point. I Think we should take this up with the embassy Show my salute by donating to no agenda imagine all the people who could do that.
