Dog sled. You need a dog sled. How are we supposed to get the vote in? We got a dog sled. Adam Curry. John C. DeVore. It's Thursday, June 11th, 2026. This is your award-winning Get More Nation media assassination episode 1876. This is no agenda. And we are broadcasting. from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number six. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. Back on Refinery Row, where everybody's talking the same

words. World Cup Watch Party, I'm John C. Dvorak. Buzzkill I got it. I gotta be honest. I am recording all Dutch team and American team games. Oh, please. On the YouTube TV. Yeah, of course. Of course. Why are you really looking forward to that Switzerland Botswana match? Uh, no, I said... I said Netherlands and American. games. I didn't say Switzerland and Botswana. And those will be more exciting. It's my teams, man. You can't be such a hater. I'm not a hater. You are very much a

hater. You know, there's only what? Nothing. I said nothing. There's only nine teams that have ever. won the World Cup. Okay, and they are jerk. Out of, what, 130 countries? How is that fair? - What are the nine teams? Germany. Well, let's start with Brazil, who has won the most. They won five. Yes, they're good players. Uh... And then you have Germany. Italy, Argentina, France. Yep. Uruguay. Yep. They won two, actually. Yeah, they're good. They're good

players. England, they won one. And last on the list is Spain. Yes. That's it. Yeah. So the Netherlands has not won, so they're not. going to win the netherlands usa can't win anything they stink what's the point the netherlands has come in twice several times i think two or three times they've come in twice i typically they choke against the germans They look at those Germans and go, oh, my bike. I choke, I choke. Well... We had a miraculous comeback of the Knicks. Look at me

with sports ball. against the Spurs, which is my team, of course, the San Antone Spurs. I mean, it's an exciting sports year, John. It's fantastic. For people out there who don't know what happened is that the The Knicks. came back from 29 points down. That was amazing. setting the record for the biggest comeback in NBA finals history. Yes. And beat these guys. And the worst part was that your San Antonio team scored 76 points in the first half. And they were leading by, I don't know,

20-something going into the second half. And in the entire second half. Joke! They scored 30 points total. It's crazy. Is that not a lot? I'm not sure. That's one quarter's worth of points generally in an average game. So. We can move off sports news as to what's happening right now on the quad screen. Of course, it happens on a show day. The president has just canceled the war. Uh, oil is droppin' like a rock! The Dow was up 800 points. And we're just moments away, just

moments away from signing the deal. Uh-huh. And I think this time it might be real. Ooh. It has to be because Elon's going public tomorrow, so he doesn't need any disturbances. So he picks up the phone. He's like, listen. Listen, Donald. You know, take care of this for me, for today, just for... a day only. If you need to rekindle it, do it on Saturday. It's been an interesting week. uh in regards to uh not so much the helicopter stuff and all that but um The

president made quite a revelation. Which I cannot. get confirmed for some reason the oil baron didn't answer this. It was like we have a text group and I said, hey, can you confirm this? And he just came back with something else and didn't say anything. I thought it was somewhat suspicious. And this is what I'm talking about. First of all, I love the inflation. You know what? Because as soon as this war is over, you know,

I can say it now. Something you didn't know. Do you know we've been taking out millions of barrels of oil? Nobody knows it. You know who doesn't know about it? Iran, until right now. We took out the other night 22 ships late at night with no lights. No lights! Because we didn't have any radar because we blasted the crap out of it. We took out this way, oil's $85 a barrel. I mean, you take a look. Remember when I did this, I said, look, the one bad thing will be we hit the best economy we've

ever hit. And I said to my people, I had Scott, I had Howard, I had Pete, I had all of them. Bob, Paul, Anthony. I said the one thing we have to do now, we had just hit the highest stock market in history. Highest 401 case in history. Everything was going well. And I said, I hate to do this to you guys, but Rand's going to have a nuclear weapon very soon. We have to go and attack. So we hit him with the B-2 bombers. Yeah. Took a lot of courage. It was totally successful. We

buried it very hard to get. Yeah. But now we had to make the second move. And I said, you know, the bad part is the stock market will go down by a lot based on predictions of experts, like 25%. And it was worth it. To me, it was worth it not to have a nuclear weapon. And the other thing is that oil would go to $250 a barrel. It's at 85. It wasn't at 85 when he said that, but okay. Do you think this is true, that they were slipping out ships and 100 million barrels

of oil? Well, it's hard to say because he did that trick that one time where they said he gave us a gift of eight ships. Remember that? Eight ships. Yeah, yeah. And there was no evidence of that. Yeah, well there's no evidence of this, but what is weird is that the oil baron wouldn't respond to me. Maybe he knows something. Whatever happened, happened at about 1.15 East Coast time. AM. Because the market just rocketed up. It took a huge turn, I know. Out of the blue,

one just spiked. Yeah. So somebody knew something. It's like the Trading Places movie. Where there's insiders doing dirty business. It's a classic. It's a classic. And... I don't know. I don't know what, you know, this could be... I think the thesis about Elon's IPO might actually be the most valid thing about it. What was interesting is the money, honey, she, of course, had the – she's not always on the show anymore. Something's going on with her,

too. So Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business, the least watched news channel in all history. except maybe for her show, she had on the CEO of Axis Capital. And, you know, so she played that whole clip and, you know, then even let it run on longer for about three minutes. And it turns out that they actually seem to have the. part worked out as well. Access Capital is at the forefront of the effort providing clients operating in the region with protection for assets exposed to heightened threats.

Joining me now in a Fox Business exclusive is Access CEO Vince Tizio. Vince thanks so much for being here this morning. Can you talk to us a little about that business in terms of providing that insurance to those boats, those ships trying to transact through the strait? Maria, good morning. Certainly. It remains a dynamic risk landscape and environment. Indeed, the announcement last night by the president reinforces the value of the industry providing protection to the maritime

space. There's over 20,000 seafarers in the region, and certainly they want the assurance that as they transport goods and services in the instance last night referenced by the president, oil, that there's protection. And so it remains dynamic. We remain a vibrant market in the geography, protecting our insureds both in the Persian Gulf So just to be clear, you're insuring those vessels that are handled and secured with others' ships so that they can be transported through? For

sure. We have representation on any number of insurers. We never reveal it. or countries of origin for protection for them, What did you say? You need less protection for them. It's protection for... Not for them, it's for you. What do you mean? I don't understand what you're saying. He says they're trying to protect, they don't want to say what ships are to protect them. No, they're the ones that did the insurance. Oh, well, of course. Hello.

Yeah. You don't want someone taking out something that's fully insured. No, you never do that. remember Back when I had helicopter money. The bank called me. Like, yeah, we think you should probably have kidnapping insurance. I'm like, what? Yes, and it works really cool. You get codes and then, you know, so only with a code can this be... Can this be uncovered? You can only give it to your wife. I'm like, I don't think I want

your kidnapping insurance. Kidnapping, that's good. Kidnapping insurance. Makes sense. Yeah. You were doing a lot of business in Mexico, I guess. Well, there have been a lot of kidnappings in Holland with wealthy people. Freddie Heineken was a legendary case. They kidnapped the dude who had the beer. So. It's not all that crazy. Well, they don't do it in countries where they really throw the book at the kidnappers. No, no. So obviously they're not throwing the book

at the kidnappers. No, it's Holland. You can murder somebody and you're out after 20 years. It's real easy. They're laid back there, man. It's cool. So you have anything on this? Because all the other clips I had make no sense now because, you know. The war is over. I just have this striking stuff. I guess Trump strikes. Yeah, but it makes no sense. It's over now. It's done. Well, not necessarily if it doesn't follow up. Well, we'll see on Sunday, but I don't think it makes

any sense to play anything. It's like, alright. Okay, well that's fine with me. Yeah, let's just, uh... Let's just talk about the World Cup! You know, the World Cup is, uh... I've also gotten all these calls from Dutch radio and television stations. Hey, hi, hoi. Yeah, we're going to be in Dallas for the World Cup. Hi, hoi. Hey, hi, hoi, toppy. Yes, that's how they talk. Hey, hi, hoi, toppy. We're going to be in Dallas for the World Cup. We'd love for you to join us.

It's a five-hour drive. I'm not coming to Dallas. Send a jet. They don't get... Yeah, right. Send a jet. Send a jet, man. They're, you know, it's a small country. They think everything is like that. Yeah. They project. But, you know, even if it was Austin, it's still five hours. Like, come on, guys. Don't be so stupid. Yeah, you're out. Yes. Tell him to come to Fredericksburg. Why don't you tell him that? No, that's the last thing I want. I don't want anybody here. You know,

that's a bad thing. When people have my number. Email is one thing, but some people have my phone number and they'll text me, Hey, we're going to be in Fredericksburg this Saturday. Got time for a glass of wine or a... A cup of coffee? It's like there's a million people a year who come through Fredericksburg. It's like living in Disneyland in Anaheim. It's like, no, I mean, I work on Saturdays. I got no time for this. You tell them. Yeah, I do. So it looks like

I owe you two bucks. Yes, you do. You do. You doubled down, you went double to nothing. We got a couple of clips on this, this mail-in balance. You want to just explain the bets before? No. Yes, because I need to savor this. I don't win often for you, Mortimer. Well, what happened was, uh... I have somehow wrangled some sort of a screwball bet. What do you mean? Spencer Pratt was not going to become the... You're the one that said, that's not true. I said they

will rig it. He will not be mayor. He's not going to be the mayor. There's no way. And then you went, you know what you're talking about. This is how they think. They think differently. They have to let them in so they don't think it's rigged. No, you got that right. I was under the impression that they weren't going to be so stupid as to rig the election, but they started thinking about it. and Well, maybe

they think, here's what my latest thinking is. Because initially I said, they're not going to be so stupid like they do with... At least with Hilton they let him in. But... They're not going to be so stupid to do the same thing to Pratt because he's got a lot of traction. He does these ads. He's fun. Mm-hmm. But because he set a new standard for how to market yourself in a campaign. They look at it and go, you know, this is probably not a good thing.

Let's don't encourage it. Let's show that it doesn't work. bumping. Now do you think Is there any... In any realm, is there any possibility? that maybe people really like the AI videos, but just not a lot of people or not enough people voted for him? It's possible. I mean, anything is possible. In fact, that's explained a little bit. In this clip, you should play this. This is... This is our buddy, Brett Weinstein. Oh. on election fraud. All right. Hold on a second. Where is he? Brett

Weinstein. We're going to have an endless battle in which those of us who see what we believe. Now, is this on his own show or is he a guest? I have no idea where this came from. from it looks like his own show okay is clear evidence of some kind of election rigging or fraud are faced with uh indignation from a vast array of people portraying themselves as more rigorous and careful who say where is your evidence where exactly is your evidence that there was something

wrong with this election. And we are going to be caught in the following predicament. No piece of evidence is sufficient to establish that case. Wow, this is deep analysis. And the sum total of all of the evidence contains true things and false things. Yes. it is also no good. So the question is, can you logically deduce that something has gone wrong? I believe you can, easily. Can

you prove it? No. And not being able to prove it means that the election will proceed, it will be validated by all of the structures, including the courts, and that means that... Those who take on the power that derives from these elections will be the result of whatever process we just went through, whether it was an election that happened to be anomalous through organic means or it was the result of some kind of fraud or election

rigging. That is not an accident. And the point that I want to make primarily is primary evidence against elections that look like this being organic is not actually in the trickle of evidence that we are actually able to see, you know, the, you know, moment by moment vote count that does something strange during the night when some large tranche of ballots is. counted or something like that. We literally saw that. The evidence is in the structure

of how the elections are actually carried out. These elections are designed to allow fraud that cannot be detected and will not be prosecuted. And that's really the thing that we must focus on. Yeah, okay. Can't wait to tune in to hear him focus on it. This is kind of what the pillow guy once said. He says you can just look and tell that statistically it's not possible what happened happened. Right. But you can't prove anything. Yeah. It's perfect. It's the perfect crime. It is the perfect

crime. Before you. play your NPR clips. I'm surprised you didn't get this. I got Gutfeld's reaction from his I don't clip Gutfeld. You have, but I thought this was, you know, a typical response. So the L.A. mayor race is now down to two with Nithya Raman advancing over Spencer Pratt to face. in November. Thanks to a delayed vote count that surged like the estrogen in Tim Waltz's veins. Okay, good line. So with Pratt out, L.A. voters have a big decision. Do they want to live in

a hole or a hellhole? But as rotten as the outcome is, don't you dare call it fraud. It's legal since... the system is built for those who control it. See, he's saying the same thing as Brett, only it's a little funnier. A mail-in voting apparatus with a time frame of a month to tally votes? Pretty convenient in case you need a second place finisher that's a Democrat so two Dems face off in the final. It's like when Jesse tips a waitress using change. They'll keep counting

as long as it takes. So don't you feel like an idiot for thinking Pratt had a chance when he never did? No one does except those in control. The system tells you so. Fact is, Pratt would not have enough Republican votes to win, so he'd need a lot of crossover votes. Maybe enough people were on the fence, especially if that fence kept pantless junkies away from their kids. But if you eliminate Pratt, you eliminate Pratt debating Bass. It's not corrupt, it's just the way the system

is run by the people who created the system. The truth is, Spencer had about as much of a chance of beating Bass as does anyone who runs against him. Putin or Kim Jong-un? No. Okay. Um... Maybe to play the other side, Chris Hayes, who is still on Mrs. Now. They keep that guy around forever. Chris Hayes. Wasn't he the... The disciple of... surface. Rachel. Rachel, yeah. Yeah. He's in her image. Exactly. You might have noticed the big lie is back. The big lie. Truthfully, it never

went away. It's a big lie. Without evidence. Capital insurrection. MAGA is pushing another. MAGA. Equal parts deranged and idiotic election conspiracy theory, this time centered on California. That's how they count the votes in California. You know why they're doing that? Because they're cheating on the election. Do you have evidence to support that? All I have to do is look. They are still counting the votes. Do you trust this election? That seems pretty shady to me. I

think California is playing around with this. But what evidence is there to prove that there was a raid? Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream that it's impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here. Something's wrong. No, no, no. Not everyone knows it instinctively because there's nothing wrong here

with California's primary. They're counting the votes. They're counting the votes, by the way, as our own Jacob Soboros has shown, in a room with glass panels so you can watch them do it. Oh, that does it. It's not fraud. So he's just talking about the counting of the votes, not the votes themselves. The case Republicans are making. In fact, we have one of our producers. is one of those observers in those big rooms. And do you have boots on the ground from the said observer? I'm

getting one. I don't have the one that I want to report on because I want to put it together. in a concise way but he says it's pretty obvious that everything that that is fraudulent takes place upstream. Yeah, it's not in the glass box. No, the glass box is just for show. Yes. With glass panels so you can watch them do it. It's not fraud. The case Republicans are making, it's impossible to prove, so trust your instincts. is manifestly preposterous and absurd. But again, so was

Trump's big lie in 2020. Manifestly, I tell you. Manifestly preposterous. Essentially identical. And look what happened. Look what that led to on January 6th. Oh, careful. And this case looks, to me, like it is setting the table to... Uh-huh. invalidate midterm results in november if republicans perform as badly as expected oh there it is there's the setup The setup is there. Yeah. Oh man, how much longer can we stand this? It's like Groundhog Day. All right,

let's talk about your mail-in ballots. you got from NPR? Well, so I was, I noticed this is an NPR clip about mail-in ballots and just two-parter. It's about how it's... So impor- Excuse me. That's okay. Flem. So important to have mail-in ballots that in these remote areas of Alaska. So that you have to, you know, that you wouldn't be able to get the vote in at all if it wasn't for that. And it dawned on me what NPR is doing. And I've noticed it elsewhere, too.

with some other reports on absentee ballots and the rest is they take the most the most obscure, probably the long shot, the most outrageous example to prove a point. Instead of using the mean or the average or anything in between. You find an outlier like Alaska, where there's a village that's out in the middle of nowhere that can't really communicate with anybody except a couple of days

out of the year. An Inuit village, yes. and you make that that's what's your way that you have to this is the classic liberal uh lowest common denominator thinking. They love doing this. It's like, well, you know, we got to do it because this little Jimmy here is dumb, so everyone has to be taught the same way. It's always something like that. And that's what NPR is doing here. And I just found it really... Annoying. So

let's play. Clip one. Richard Moses is an Alaska-based campaign and election lawyer who's represented parties involved in ballot recounts and has seen the late arrivals firsthand. One of them was from out in western Alaska, was postmarked prior to election day and still arrived seven or eight days after the deadlines. For those inside the U.S. Alaska allows mail-in ballots to be counted as long as they are postmarked by Election Day and arrive no later than 10 days

after a general election. But a Supreme Court decision could change that. The court is currently considering a Republican Party challenge to a Mississippi law that counts mail-in ballots similarly to how Alaska does. In our court brief, Republicans... party lawyers said that delayed counting violates federal law that nationally sets an election day. Alaska's attorney general filed a brief with the court that did not take a side, but

did explain the challenges Alaskans face when voting. Moses, who has represented both Democrats and Republicans, says if the law is struck down, it could affect Alaska significantly. We live in a state where diphtheria serum had to be delivered a thousand miles on a dog sled. Not that long ago. Dog sled. Any change to the electoral process in any way is going to be groundbreaking here. Groundbreaking. Oh, this is great. Yeah, you're absolutely right. That's a great

way to frame it. Like, well, look, we have Alaska. Dog sled. You need a dog sled. How are we supposed to get the vote in? We got a dog sled. Yes. This is like bull crap. But anyway, let's go part two. Michelle Spark runs the nonpartisan effort called Get Out the Native Vote. They operate under the Alaska Federation of Native... which filed an image. They're going deep with get out the native vote. This brief in the case. They said discounting late arriving ballots would disenfranchise many

native voters in Alaska and other places. So it's racist too. Native voters. This is good. Who are often in remote communities. They know how to pile on. Yeah, it's fantastic. Not good to mess with these things. especially during an election year. Under the proposed change, voters could still vote by mail. They'll just have to send their ballots in earlier. But Spark says a lot can change in

the weeks before an election. When everybody has the luxury until 8 p.m. on election day to make their decisions, it's not fair to put the burden on us. Not fair. soon as possible. If a change went into effect before this November, Alaska political watchers say it could affect the consequential Senate race between Democrat Mary Peltola and Republican Dan Sullivan. Peltola faces headwinds in a state that went

to Trump by 13 points in the last election. Still, analysts say many of Peltola's supporters live in rural areas. that could be impacted by this voting change. In Platinum, counting late arriving ballots is about more than just election outcomes. It's about the principle of having a vote. Lou Adams again. It's kind of disheartening. You want your vote to be counted. That's why you vote. Practically Canadian. maybe make a difference and they count your ballot. She says

the community is hoping to get a polling place. Until then, voting will rely on boats, snow machines, and bush planes. Yeah, that has very little bearing on the vote for the Los Angeles mayor. I know, but let's just... play dog sleds. That's good. Did you see the ActBlue CEO? Testifying. I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that it may tend to incriminate me. This was so good. We've been talking about Axe Blue for... 10,

12, 15 years? At least. And not to forget that there's the big red version, which I think was started by Jared Kushner. Yeah, but it hardly compares to ActBlue. ActBlue is pretty out there. You know, every single activist website you see who's asking for a donation, that's the first thing you do. Activist website, let me see. Donation, ah, yes, ActBlue. Okay. But I just thought her. The first question was all you really need to know to know how the rest of the hearing went. I do

have a series of questions for you. But I want to make sure I'm respectful. Is it Ms. Jones or Ms. Wallace-Jones? on the advice of counsel, are respectfully declined. answer the question pursuant to my fifth amendment I don't know my name. I can't even say her name. That was great. That was funny. She's so dumb. And whoever that was, he asked and he knew, he knew what the answer was going to be. That was a... Yeah, once they got a clue... A quick... Yeah, and then...

Jim Jordan went on with, how much did Russia influence the election? You're right. They started asking these questions that may or may not indicate one thing or another. In other words, the corruption of the Democrats. You could do whatever you want. She just made it look like the Russians vote Democrat. I mean the way it went. It was fantastic. Ugh. So. This was, let me see, what was this? This was two days ago. Everybody's phone in

Fredericksburg starts going off. I'm like... Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, alert, you know, one of those. alerts like the orange alert, the scarlet alert. F- Phone alert. FBGC Emergency Management. That's Fredericksburg, Gillespie County. First screwworm case confirmed in Gillespie County. Oh, that came on your phone? On my phone, yes, yes. If you want more information, text SCREWORM to 38276. I'm like, what is this now? So I look at it. Did you text Screwworm? No, I did not. You're

like an idiot doing that. Gee, I did not text Screwworm. No. And turns out... A screw worm was detected in a goat. This is, I mean, this fear that they're throwing out there. is pretty insane. Actually, we got a note from... Brazil-trained veterinary... Juliana. And... She says, you know, I got my education in Brazil. You know, the new world screw worm rages. I'm specialized. And she gave us everything that we knew. She says warm-blooded animals are

at risk, including dogs and cats. But then she says. The Sterile Fly program was a huge success in the USA. I was taught in my vet school. I was sad to learn the USA is letting this plague come back. Adam, please don't take this lightly. Keep an eye on Phoebe. And I just wanted to say thank you, Juliana. Just because we talk about... things that could be horrible lightheartedly doesn't mean that we don't take it seriously. People confuse that. We're trying to deconstruct media and have

a bit of a lighthearted attitude about it. I mean, it's easy to go... Yeah, because most of it's... Bogus. I mean, well, you could be here on fire. pets, your dogs, woo! Yeah, we could do that. We probably have more clicks, more likes, more downloads. We could put ourselves on YouTube, on video. John, you could make a face like, oh. So let's hear from the Texas Ag Commissioner, Sid Miller. about what's not working and what has

always worked and that we should resort back to. The U.S. cattle industry began sounding the alarm over screwworms when they were detected in Mexico in 2024. The USDA has been deploying sterile male flies to stop screwworms from returning. But you're proposing something instead. What is that and why is what the USDA is doing not enough? Well, what they're doing is the same thing over and over again. expecting different results. That's the definition of insanity. They're releasing

100 million sterile flies a week. Been doing that for 18 months. We've released over 7 billion sterile flies. Yet we have more cases today than when we started. And they've marched from southern Mexico 1,100 miles into Texas. in New Mexico. It's not working, folks. We have a tool. The USDA has it. They come up with it. They've deployed it. They've used it in the past called the SWAS system. That's Screw Worm Adult Suppression System. It's basically a fly bait. You put the fly bait out and

pass it. It's killed from 80 to 95% of the screw worm flies. You follow up with sterile flies. The reason the sterile flies don't work is that they release 100 million flies, but half of them are females. The ideal is to get the sterile male to mate with a fertile female, and there's no offspring. Well, they don't mate with the fertile females. There's a fertile sterilized female. beside them so they just mate with each other. Maybe one in a hundred thousand actually goes out and finds

a fertile female to mate with. So it's not working. Why do you think the federal government doesn't want to deploy the swast method? I've asked them. They don't have a good answer. It's their program. It's not mine. The very first time I brought it down. to Brooke Rollins. She says it's environmentally insensitive. I said, what does that mean? I don't get it. She said, well, it might kill some good flies. I said, well, I don't know what a good fly is, but let's say we kill

the good flies. You've got a billion-dollar fly factory. Let's go make some more flies and turn them loose. Let's do that. The number one thing is to eradicate the screwworm flies. Damn gummit, that's how we think in Texas. Dadgummit might take out some good flies. Don't take out the flies that could be insensitive to them. I don't know. This thing... That sounds... Actually, that rationale sounds correct. Yes. This whole thing sounds hoaxy. Why are we doing

that? And how can you say the screw... How about malice? thigh on that works yeah yeah walk the cows through it How does a screwworm march a thousand miles? I don't know. Very slowly. It's the cattle. They're moving the cattle up through here. They're selling crap cattle. Crap cattle. So did you guys talk about... The SpaceX IPO on DH Unplugged. I haven't listened. We've talked about it before. Yeah. Well, the new news... It doesn't make a lot of sense to anyone who runs the numbers. But...

Well, not making a lot of sense because it's already like overvalued. It's 4x oversubscribed. Last I looked. And this is the thing that's interesting. I've taken a company public and... Typical. Musk fashion, I guess. It's like, no, we're not going to discuss pricing. It's $130 a share, no matter how many people want it or don't want it or whatever. That's pretty. That's pretty atypical for an IPO where they price it and say that's going to be

it, not the pricing the night before. Especially if it's... Well, that's the way it used to be in the olden days. Well, in 96... I remember that we were ready to walk away from the whole IPO. the night before. because they didn't want to price it at $7. Of course, it went down to $3.50 on the first day. It was an awesome IPO. Great quarter, guys. It took a long time to get it back up. But I don't know. I mean, it'll be interesting to see.

Is this the big liquidity event, the exit for all of the venture capital, the billions of dollars that have been put into it? Or will people hold? Well, they're going to hold it long enough until the indexers all have to buy it up. And it should jack it up a few points. And then we'll see what happens. I had to get out as soon as I could. Yeah. This is what you want. I mean, as soon as I could after the index was all bought in

because the way it's set up is that. It's going to have to be bought up out of the index funds because it's going to be an index stock. you And so they got to buy a ton of it. And so that's going to prop it up. And it should either go up enough that you can make a little money there right at the beginning. And, uh... then who knows what's going to happen. I think it's going to collapse. Ooh! Not the first day, though. No, no, I don't think so. It's got to spike. Well, Senator

Warren. Elizabeth Warren did something which I think is very smart. She made a statement which she has nothing to lose. If it's a huge success, no one will remember what she said. But if and when it collapses, she'll be looking like a hero. on SpaceX this morning. One prominent senator now calling for an IPO delay. Our Eamon Javers has that for us. Eamon, a 12-page letter here,

heavily footnoted. Yeah, good morning, Carl. This is a letter from Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren to the Commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission asking the commission to delay Friday's SpaceX. investor protection concerns. She says market analysts have raised concerns about the math underlying SpaceX's target valuation. publicly traded

companies are meant to be accountable to their shareholders. The SpaceX IPO will flip this model on its head with shareholders providing billions of dollars in new capital with no accountability measures for Mr. Musk or company leadership. And she's expressing concerns here about passive investors saying the SpaceX IPO

creates a new concern. But major stock market indexes are being rigged in a way that would force millions of investors in passive index funds, a generally lower cost investment option that can be attractive to retail investors, to invest in SpaceX and face exposure to SpaceX's significant risk with no choice in the matter. So that from Elizabeth Warren. political reality is that Donald Trump's SEC not likely to take Elizabeth Warren's advice here on this IPO on Friday.

But I think it does signal some concerns out there in the investing community. And if Democrats are to be successful in the midterms, you could proceed some static for the company after November. Guys, back to you. Well, since, uh... Elon's a genius. We'll see. I think, here's an out there prediction. I think before long. Elon is going to find a way to leverage this IPO and buy it. a company called Boom Supersonic. Is that the airplane

company? Yeah. That has the small supersonic planes? It's not that small. It holds 100 people. Why would he... What's the point of that? I think he's going to become like Boeing. They want to be in the airline business. Really? There's just a random thought in my head. Oh, okay. Well, let's put it in the book. Do you still have a red book? No, you don't have the red book. Why are you not home, by the way? You're at Jay's place again? Yeah. Why are they painting

at my place? Oh, no. That'll kill you. So the big concern has been too big to fail. How are

we going to protect the poor 401k holders? um about how we're going to protect our gdp and it seems like that fear is coming true with the idea of the united states government taking a stake in the ai companies hi kelly so we are hearing that the us government is Considering taking a stake in OpenAI, possibly other AI giants as well, a source tells me CEO Sam Altman and the Trump administration have been talking about this

idea for more than a year now. Altman first floated this from what I'm hearing back in 2025 when Trump initially took office. A source says that OpenAI would actually donate a portion of its equity to a... possible AI fund as part of this. Altman was on Capitol Hill just this week. He was meeting with lawmakers from what we're hearing, including Senator Bernie Sanders, who has pitched a

50% government stake in some of these AI companies. He confirmed to CNBC that he and Altman talked about the concept of a sovereign wealth fund in terms of investing in AI. Much of this does mirror. What OpenAI has said publicly already back in April, it did pitch a handful of solutions to try to spread the economic benefits of this technology and let Americans participate in AI's financial upside at a time when there is real anxiety around

widespread job loss. The government, though, has a recent track record when you look at recent direct equity stakes and other tech... companies. You have Intel, IBM, Global Foundries, other critical mineral companies, plus some quantum companies as well. Worth noting, though, governments around the world are actually already invested in OpenAI and Anthropic through their own sovereign wealth funds. You have MGX out of Abu Dhabi and then the UAE fund. There are also some state... funds that own

blocks through venture capital firms. So there's sort of a precedent for this on a global scale. It's fun to watch the other tech CEOs kind of flipping out a little bit. Is Palantir stock still rocketing or is it diving? I don't know that it's diving. I think it's doing okay. I haven't looked at it for a while. You know that crazy guy, Alex Karp, the CEO, who

looks like a mad scientist? Yeah, mad scientist. So it sounds like he's really afraid that these, you know, of course the promise of AI is it can recreate everything. You don't need your tech software. You don't need anything. It's going to make everything for everybody and all these other companies will not be necessary. And he did an interview on CNBC and he sounded... scared or nervous, just

weird. Because I think the biggest question around Palantir right now on Wall Street is whether the large language models, the anthropics and the AIs, which are about to go. The anthropics and the AIs, come on. Come on, man, don't do that. There's only three companies. Public. Can replicate what you're doing. You know what? it's a real question that no one in enterprise factually is worried. Investors are really interested. Short term have no idea what they're talking

about. Long term end up being right. We will just... debate this with the facts. I've spent all my life, for better or worse, dealing with the most complicated, most interesting enterprises. I'm on the ground floor in that, probably like no one else. And they don't, you're saying? I mean, most of them are chillaxing over their latte, reading a report about something that they don't understand. They're idiots, I tell you. They don't know what they're talking about.

But they're hiring the kind of engineers that you have. And those kind of engineers are great engineers. And I'm telling you, they don't talk to the enterprises or don't understand the technical challenge. And also, by the way, the ability to be a great investor in the kind of... That's where large language models are more useful because it's probabilistic and you don't have to get better than really

51%. If you want to manufacture a car and you need a part or you want to send a rocket to the moon or you want to put a missile on your adversary's head and bring home Americans safely, you use Palantir. That stuff doesn't ship. And by the way, and there's not a single... If you want to put a missile on your enemy's head, you call me. ...an enterprise like that that would ever put... By the way,

that's before you get to the cultural impasse. Like, when you go to San Francisco and talk to them, their basic vibe is, we don't have to solve your problem today because tomorrow you're going to go away. and all of your problems are going to be solved. It's largely religious. And then you get to, we're going to replicate Palantir by doing a deploy code. I mean, it's a complete farce. Like the people who go there to solve

the simplest, easiest problems that sell tokens. And the part they don't understand, honestly, and I told them this, I probably shouldn't, is... They don't understand how unlikable they are. They're no good. Well, he's right about the unlikable. Yeah, totally. Totally. Yeah, Palantir's still hanging in there, $130 a share. Yeah, I just saw it. It's looking pretty good. You know, people think that Palantir is like this box that does everything. They didn't even have AI in their

box until this stuff came along. It's just a big database. Yeah. What do you need? Well, Palantir, you know, all the data centers, they're going to collect all of our information. And then we're going to be living in a panopticon. I think what he's worried about, if he's worried at all, is that if these things start to fail, this may be the triggering mechanism for a huge correction that dropped the stock to under 100. Or less. Or drop it down to God knows what. Yeah. It'll

be interesting. I... I don't know about... See, the hedge that Elon has is he's got more than just XAI. You know, he's got the space stuff in there. He's got the satellite stuff. Yeah, the satellite company. And he's selling his compute. to the other guys. I think he may actually do okay. It's open AI and anthropic. Those are the ones that will be interesting to see. but I guess they're gonna wait. see what happens. I think those are going to come out next week or the

week after or something. Really? Really that fast? Oh, man. Well, I thought they were all coming out at once, more or less. I don't know. And then Google's asking for some money. Yeah. as if they need it well we know they need the 40 billion half of it they need for compensation That's why they need the money. Yeah, that's right. You gotta pay. All the promises. They got some problems over there. And then, oh, well, Anthropic is doing their marketing. Yes, here we go. Remember that

mythos model? so scary we couldn't release to the public we had to only give it to a few partners we have some breaking news on it's always breaking news tropics speaking of ai and maybe speaking of token maxing kate rooney has the story hi kate hi kelly so anthropic just rolling out a mythos level ai model to consumers that is the important part of that sentence Why the laptop? If you haven't heard of Mythos, this is Anthropic's buzzy cybersecurity model. It had only been available to

a select handful of companies. It rolled out back in April. At the time, Anthropic said it was an ultra-powerful technology that Excel was finding. Decades-old security vulnerabilities. It was essentially too powerful, they said. and risky to put in the hands of the general public. It got a lot of attention on Wall Street and the Trump administration as well. It is now widely available. It's not called Mythos, though. It is called Fable 5. It's the same underlying

technology, though. As Mythos Anthropic says, there are more safeguards involved, especially around things like biochemicals and cybersecurity. speak to Diane Penn over at Anthropic. She likened this rollout to a credit card. I think this is an easy way to understand it. Certain people have certain spending limits and then there are additional verifications for enterprises that might get a higher spending limit. So you can think of that in the context of mythos. Penn told me they want

to be intentional. Did you understand the analogy? What is she saying? I don't know what she's talking about. babbling. I think what she's saying is that they have to still pre-approve you to use the Fable 5. Who comes up with these code names? Bull of crap. You know, Gary Marcus, the guy who had a tip of the day. Thank you for that. I've been reading his sub stack. Yeah, his thesis, he says, look, here's what these

guys do. First they come out and they, because they got a new version coming out, so they say, we can't release the version because it will destroy all mankind. We don't know what to do. And so the news media picks that up and they go, oh, this is going to be terrible. And then they end up releasing it like a month later and then the news media picks it up and says, oh, just what the... The clip you're playing, actually. Oh, they released the crazy thing

that could destroy all mankind. And then they do the same thing over and over. Every six months, they'll pull the same stunt. And it works every time because the slow news cycle. I don't know. People are bored. They have nothing better to talk about. That's all they have. That's all they have. It's what the news does, you know. The World Cup is kicking off. That'll change the news cycle. Yeah. Watch party. You'll love that. Meanwhile, what has been long expected in Europe is happening. With the

beheading. Of a citizen of Ireland. Well, they didn't quite behead him, did they? Well, attempted beheading him. He didn't have a knife big enough, but it's kicking off. Homes, cars, and a public bus ablaze on the streets of Belfast. People forced to flee as firefighters battle the flames. while political leaders try to dampen the anger that sparked the destructive protests. Many people are feeling angry and many

people are feeling deeply distressed, which is entirely understandable. First Minister Michelle O'Neill has addressed the knife attack that's left a man in his 40s with serious injuries to his face, neck and back. And the response that's followed. People are feeling a bag of emotions about what they have witnessed. But my message today is one of calm and don't allow those people that don't care about people here

to incite hatred, to incite fear. Don't allow those people who are faceless to orchestrate campaigns and on the streets. A Sudanese man who was granted refugee status. after arriving in 2023, has been charged with attempted murder over the Belfast attack, but police are still trying to determine a motive. Police Service of Northern Ireland Chief Constable John Butcher is urging the masked youths gathering around the city to stand down. Please, please. Let the police do their job.

Unfettered and undistracted by wider concerns there may be about disorder. Man, let the police do their job? Really? That's exactly what everyone saw them doing with the... um With the kid who was dying. The violence in Northern Ireland follows... You're stabbed. No, you're not stabbed. The violence in Northern Ireland follows trouble in the city of Southampton in England last week. Arrests were made there after police were criticized for handcuffing a dying white man who'd been stabbed

by a Sikh man. He wasn't. an immigrant, but he was born in Britain. He had falsely accused his victim of racism. The arrest was filmed and widely viewed online. I asked our UK political correspondent, Rob Watson, why immigration is such a hot-button issue in the UK. Why? Really? Why? We can't figure... I'm from the BBC. I can't

figure it out. I don't get it. What's happening? very hard to see these videos without having a strong reaction of horror sadness anger depending of course on the kind of person you are and so what does that mean depending on wait a minute what kind of cold-blooded asshole what action of horror sadness anger depending of course on the kind of person you are And so what that has done is that it's sort of brought this simmering concern about immigration and social cohesion very much to the

fore. And it is extraordinary that before these two videos even, if you look at the polling, it does strongly suggest the concern about immigration, not just illegal immigration. or about refugees or asylum seekers is actually now a more important issue for British voters than even the economy, which is pretty extraordinary. Yeah. Oh, yes. Very, very extraordinary. And here's... That's very extraordinary. Now, this won't affect Keir Starmer at all, I don't think, but... His message is not

what people want to hear. Mr. Speaker, people are rightly sickened by the horrific attack on Monday night in North Belfast. As you have just said, the man arrested has been in court in Belfast this morning and charged. I want to thank the Police Service of Northern Ireland and other first responders. and members of the public who responded with such bravery. And our thoughts are with the evicted. But let me be clear, Mr. Speaker. The acts of

violence and arson that followed are totally unjustified. This morning I spoke with the First Minister. the Deputy First Minister and the Chief Constable. And the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland is meeting leaders in Belfast today. We are united in calling for calm. and determined to restore order, support the police and all those on the front line, and ensure that justice is done. Ugh. This is not what people want to hear. This is going to happen

all over Europe eventually. The Irish, they're just, you know, they're primed for that. That's part of their culture. But it's bound to happen. Every single time this takes place, now people are going to come out. Start burning homes. It's not lessening by any means. No, it's not. But how crazy are these European and, well, I'll just say European, UK. Representatives. They're stupid. It's all part of the global elite. globalist agenda. Yes. Meanwhile in Texas... My, uh...

What? Tries to get away from it. My, uh... Except in Trinidad, my septic guy just texted me. Here's how we work in Texas. You know, he checks on the septic system every six months. Please have all trip mines and explosives secured and disengaged as we'll be on the property shortly. That's Texas. Yeah, I got you. And he's serious. He means it. Love that. Alright, so I got a couple of offbeat things here. I have one clip that about Scott Pelley, as we talked about last show,

was fired. Yes. And so the New York Times, there's one woman who does these interviews called The Interview. And she's good because she's pretty objective and she's... Isn't that Lulu? Isn't that Lulu? Yeah, maybe. I think it's Lulu. I think it's Lulu. Yeah, the Lulu. She sees everybody as full of crap and she kind of, without overdoing it, she's really quite good at it. And she lets Peli go on and on. He does this for about an hour, and he's crying. Yeah, I know. He's moaning

and groaning. He's crying about the daughter of, what is it? Some reporter. No, was it like the granddaughter? of who was the big CBS guy? Oh, Palin, or not Palin, but Paley. Yes. No, Cronkite. Cronkite. Wasn't it Cronkite? Yeah, somebody, or one of them. There was some, yeah. And she worked there for a while, and she got fired, and oh my God. Anyway. Here's the bottom line. You become a journalist. because of democracy. That's the message.

I got this one clip out of the whole, I mean, I could have clipped quite a bit, but I thought this was interesting. This is a clip where he he says one thing and within within 60 seconds of saying it he contradicts himself And he's talking about... Oh, yeah. As soon as Bilton showed up, he looked at the memo and he says, oh, they're going to fire all of us. They're going to fire all of us. And then within 60 seconds he says, I was stunned when I was fired. They wiped out a large number

of people. One of the things Nick Bilton said in that ill-fated email to the staff was that he was excited to tell, I'm paraphrasing here, he was excited to tell the staff. about the new crop of correspondence. And when I saw that, I thought, okay, they're going to fire all of us. Eventually, that's the plan. He put it in writing for all of us to see. And so that's why I use these admittedly for a journalist.

hyperbolic terms, they capture the scale of what happened. You then do have a meeting with CBS leadership after this very contentious... interaction. Can you tell me about that meeting and if you were at that point? going in expecting to be fired? Oh gosh, furthest thing from my mind. It hadn't occurred to me. That's good. I have two clips. What a doofus. Well, it gets even better here, Mr. Journalist. Um... About the bias that specifically Barry Weiss

wanted to insert. Oh, yeah. Can I give you a little background error before you play the clip? He goes on and on about she's trying to put her thumb on the scale, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and she made these suggestions. And they implemented none of the suggestions that Barry Weiss suggested. And then there was no pushback at all. So what's the big deal? She tries to get that out of him, but she can't do it. Right now. CBS News, in my view, is on fire.

It's on fire! This is Morning Joe with the music and everything. They had a bunch. to it is great. This morning, the new interview. Scott Pelley speaking out on camera for the first time since his firing last week from the iconic CBS News broadcast, 60 Minutes. It's like your spouse was murdered. What? The mood among the 60 Minutes staff is... I've been fired. Have you ever been fired? You've been fired. Yeah? Did it feel like your wife was murdered? No, not really. I think that would

be a little more traumatic. I think so too. Word that several of my sources have used with me. They feel demoralized, dismayed. Pelley dismissed following a reportedly contentious meeting with show staff, accusing newly installed executive... of having slender qualifications. And then CBS News editor-in-chief Barry Weiss was murdering 60 Minutes after several top correspondents and producers were let go. It was the wholesale nature of it. ARB. senior

staff wiped out, we had a triumphal year. So this is incredibly... Difficult to understand. A triumphal year? What do you mean they had to read, they had to take back interviews that they... edited deceptively. What was the triumph they had? Their numbers were up. Oh, numbers were up. Pelly also saying Weiss tried to have him insert. bias

and falsehoods into a story. This is my favorite. Listen to the journalist giving multiple notes on a report about the killings of American citizens, Renee Good and Alex Preddy by federal immigration officers. Two of the things in the email include. Can we make the protesters look more violent? Okay, so in the email... Two of the things, one was, can we make the protesters look more violent? Now, I'm paraphrasing. What? I don't have the quote. What? But

that's what was communicated to me. Where's the email? I would have that printed out in my pocket. He's paraphrasing. So what did it actually say? This is not journalism. I find that egregious. I kind of miss that. That's good. Yeah. It's like, what are you doing here? You're doing a lot of paraphrasing. Yes. And the other thing was, Rene Good's car, you need to... I'm paraphrasing. That episode of 60 Minutes. came within 19 minutes of not making air. You know, this is a guy... who's been

at the company for a long time. And long before Barry Weiss, he didn't feel valued. You couldn't tell. It's just like no one cares. No one values the important work we do, our honesty, our integrity. No, no, change it from we do to I do. Yeah. Well, yes, to I. This was a guy. This is the guy. He just felt undervalued, and here's the final clip to

prove it. In a statement, a CBS News spokesperson telling MSNOW, Weiss's points had no political motivation and were proposed solely to make the piece as strong, fair, and accurate as possible, as is frequently the case in any news... Not everything she raised made it into the final piece. To see this as the system working. She had notes. You felt they didn't make sense to take. The piece ran and there was no retaliation. Well, it was the

interference that's the problem. What interference? It was interference and pushing back. Like, you can't, you stupid sub-stacker. You can't tell me what to do. I'm Scott Pelley. The bigger problem, Lulu, frankly, is not any kind of... Political influence. Oh. The problem was... Well, this is what we've heard over and over again, that this is Trump's channel. The incompetence. In the interview, Pelley emotional, talking about the treatment

of his colleagues. He also responded to President Trump calling him stupid and a stiff and saying he doesn't care about the country. You become a journalist. because you love the country. No, no, I got to disagree with that. You do not become a journalist because you love the country. What was his first journalistic job? We can find out soon enough by looking him up. Yeah, look him up. That's the book of knowledge. That's a good idea. Hold on a second. A book of knowledge. What was

Scott Pelley's first job in journalism? I hope it's something good. It'll be lame. According to the Book of Knowledge, Scott Pelley obtained his first job in journalism at the age of 15. as a copy boy for the Lubbock Avalanche Journal in his hometown of Lubbock, Texas. Nuh. It has been written. So he was a copy boy because he loved the country. That's why he got into it, man. And while all the other descriptions that the president used about me might be applicable. That one. Got that

one. There is no democracy. without journalism. Really, Scott? Is that really it? There's no democracy without journalism? How about First Amendment, maybe? I don't know about journalism. Lesley, Saul, Bill Whitaker, and John Wertheim confirmed in a memo to their colleagues they would continue on the show for now, saying, quote, "We don't want to see 60 Minutes die." to respect it. Yes, sure you will. We'll walk. Yes, we'll walk. Exactly. Ah well. You know, there's a time

for coming, a time for going, Scott Pelley. Just happens. Um... Of course. No, no, no, no, no, no. The Pelly Pod. Oh, you're right. I'm just like, what am I thinking? What's wrong with you, man? Yeah, you already came up with that last show, Pelly Pod. No, we talked about it after the show. Oh, Pelly Pod. The Pelly Pod. It's going to be the Pelly Pod. It'd be great. Yeah. Yeah. All right. There's a couple other things. What do you got in your screwball clip? Here,

I'm going to play it. Can I just flag something for you? Please. Last episode and this episode. At least four times you say, I got a couple of screwball clips. Just say it's clips. They're good clips. It's not screwball. Am I? you overusing the word screwball? Yeah, a little bit. Is that what you're accusing me of? I'm flagging it. Well, I think you're correct. Okay, so what kind of clips do you have? No, I feel bad.

Don't feel bad. Screwball is a show title. Well, I have the whatever girls, which is always good for a laugh. Oh, brother. Here we go. No, I don't want to play that. All right. Let's do some serious clips because we need updates on Artemis. Oh, yes. No chicks. Starts with an R. Artemis with an R. Yes. Okay. Got it. What do we know about this crew? and this historic mission what they're going to be doing. Yeah,

so let's talk about the mission first. I mean, this is a bridge between that Artemis 2 mission from just a couple of months ago that flew around the moon, didn't land on the moon, flew around it. First time astronauts had been in the vicinity of the moon since 1972. And then the mission after this upcoming one is going to be a landing on it. This is a

test. where they're going to take that Orion spacecraft and they're going to dock with the two lunar landers, the spacecraft that are actually going to ferry the astronauts to the surface of the moon and then back up before they come back. They're going to do those tests, though, on this mission, the Artemis 3 mission, in Earth's orbit. And so today, what NASA did to great pomp and service. circumstance was name the crew of that mission that

are going to be testing out these lunar landers. And there is talk about ramping up the cadence of this mission, in essence, trying to speed things along. Well, yeah, and that's what NASA is saying. They would like this mission to go in 2027 ahead of a landing in

2028. But you have seen the news that one of the companies involved in this, Blue Origin, which is a company owned by Jeff Bezos, just a couple of weeks ago had their new Glenn rocket, which would be vital potentially to this mission, just explode in dramatic fashion, obliterated the launch pad. NASA said... ready in time for this.

But we shouldn't discount the fact that the other provider, which is Elon Musk's SpaceX, they've made a lot of progress with their Starship vehicle, which is their lunar lander, but it's never flown people. It's never left the vicinity of Earth. It's never landed on the moon. And so while they're putting face... to this mission, whether they'll be able to do it next year and then have a lunar landing by 2028, I think a lot of people are frankly skeptical about that. Yes, including your No Agenda

Show podcast. Totally. Very skeptical about that. Now, wouldn't that affect the SpaceX stock? It's going to be interesting to see how space news will affect the stock. That whole stock is going to be fun to watch. Well, I don't think it's going to affect it as much as a SpaceX vehicle blowing up and taking the whole operation with it. Yeah, yeah. That can happen. Yeah, that's a risky company. sink the company would be people getting killed. Yeah, it's a bad day. happens. A little bit of

Epstein news. which I thought was interesting coming from a new book. Titled Regime Change. heard about the regime change? No, no. All I heard recently about Epstein is Bill Gates' testimony. Yeah, but I have a clip, but it's just nothing. All he says is, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do it. Okay. No, he said, according to this morning, he did, somebody leaked that he said that he was being blackmailed. Yeah. Yeah, but we knew that. I don't believe it. Yeah, we knew it. It was

the STD thing. That note, the email that Epstein had saved in his Gmail draft box. Oh, yeah, maybe. Eh, it's okay. If you call that blackmail. Yeah. Here's the

Ms. Now version of this. story of the book regime change danielle like i could understand the strategy of trying to utilize maga media but tucker carlson interview maxwell what's your reaction to that i mean i think that it's incredibly shocking but i for me what is most disturbing are the people that were in in the situation room and the way that Haberman and Swan started off their piece was stating what the Situation Room is actually used

for, right? Like war and discussions of strategy around our foreign relations and domestic issues, etc. And the fact that so many of Donald Trump's top staff... cabinet members were in that situation room without him to discuss how to cater, right, how to create a PR package for the Epstein files is incredibly shocking. But the idea that you would get Tucker Carlson to sit down with Ghislaine Maxwell

and Tucker Carlson, who has been at odds. with this White House on a number of issues is really just it's extraordinary. But to me, the most extraordinary part is how many people were involved in the spin, in the cover up and in the lie that this White House said that Donald Trump had nothing to do with the Epstein files. And yet these are not the actions that are taken. by innocent people. So here... What? They're guilty!

They're covering for pedophiles. Here's the backstory. So... Uhhhh... Susie Wiles. Levitt, Bondi, Blanche, Patel, Bongino, they're all in the Situation Room. in the summer of 2025. Because they want to contain the Epstein files fallout, fearing that the MAGA base would turn on them, which, of course, is exactly what happened. And apparently, Bongino was like, F you, Bondi, you screwed this up from the start, which is also true. Yeah, absolutely true. And so Trump wanted this stuff

buried. This is all according to this book, Regime Change. Who wrote the book? Oh, Maggie Haberman. And, you know, she's one of my favorites. New York Times people. No, it's all New York Times. Yes. Where did they get this information? Oh, well, uncorroborated. Of course. Um... Uh... So apparently J.D. Vance. Let's stop right here. The Situation Room is a room that is... One of the most protected, it's almost like a skiff. For a reason. Yeah, it's

like a skiff. There's no... devices you can't get in you can't get out kind of thing So it's sad to be somebody in the meeting that... That's friends with Haberman. Well, remember, this is the same situation room the New York Times wrote about where they said that Netanyahu was running the meeting, sitting at the head of the table, and Trump was in the corner. talking or sleeping. So it could be bull crap. It could be. So apparently J.D. Vance floated the idea of having Tucker Carlson

interview Ghislaine Maxwell in prison. hoping she'd exonerate Trump. And they chose Blanche instead. Um... I'm recording, let's see. The tactic they came up with is Blanche proposed unsealing motions expected to be denied so the administration could blame the judges for nondisclosure. This is according to... Newsweek and Axios who summarize the book and something from the New York

Times. from the New York Times. So the big thing here is the story, as far as I can tell, is that they wanted Tucker to interview Ghislaine Maxwell, have someone friendly do it, which they ultimately didn't go with. And it's being played as, well, they clearly had something to cover up. I think the other side of it... Is Trump new? As he said, let's put it that way. He said this is a Democrat hoax. Which so far seems to be correct. because there's really nothing about

Trump in there. other than some crazy FBI papers that talked about him raping a 13-year-old, which... came from, you know, phone call. Yeah, some anonymous call. Hello. Yeah, I got some info for you. Yeah, so here's Tapper, Jake, on the New York Times excerpt from the book as they promote it heavily right before the midterms, of course. We're going to start with the eyebrow-raising report today. Eyebrow-raising? Detailing the White House. Freak out. That's in quotes. White

House freak out over the Epstein files last summer. This New York Times article is drawn from reporting done for the new book Regime Change, which comes out in roughly two weeks. It's by New York Times White House reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan. Here are some of the

highlights of today's excerpt on July 17th, 2025. about a year ago, a chunk of Trump's top officials, who you see listed on your screen, led by the vice president, filed into the White House Situation Room without the commander-in-chief, without President Trump. They were trying to figure out how to regain control over the growing, ugly narrative that the Trump administration was, at the very least, complicit in a cover-up. for the crimes of now-dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and

other predators in his orbit. Ten days earlier, the Justice Department... Notice how he says, pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Yeah, that's what you do. The very least complicit in a cover-up for the crimes of now-dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and other... predators in his orbit. Ten days earlier, the Justice Department and FBI had released their nothing-to-see-here memo saying that their review found no client list of the powerful men to

whom Epstein had allegedly trafficked girls underage and women. Vice President Vance reportedly told the group, this is a huge problem, and he argued that all the Epstein files should be released. The report says, quote, Vance had also floated to colleagues an extraordinary PR gambit that the White House enlists Tucker Carlson to interview Epstein's longtime girlfriend and co-conspirator

Ghislaine Maxwell in prison. It might help the president if Maxwell was willing to state that Trump had not been part of any wrongdoing with Epstein. Spoiler alert, Tucker did not get that gig. You will note, however, that the goal here, as stated, seemed to be to get Trump cleared. by Maxwell, who is a criminal with questionable credibility, to say the least. So that seems to be the headline. So I don't think there's much else in the book. um That's probably the book. That's probably the book

right there. Maybe this one is a little bit here. Here's how some of the situation in the room debate went down, according to this Times report by Haberman and Swan. Quote, the vice president said he thought the president would be okay with releasing the nipple-related documents, arguing that Trump had been accused of worse. I think we should

put it out, he said. cause people to say we're going for this is the nipple gate Somewhere apparently in the files, which I have not seen, someone claimed that Trump liked nipples. Oh brother, this is like that Gorilla TV bullcrap. Oh, Gorilla TV? Oh, that he watched Gorillas? Yeah, yeah. got in office. They made the claims in one of these Axios. He sits and watches Gorilla TV. Don't you remember the Gorilla TV stuff? Yeah, I remember.

That's all he watches. He goes on TV and he watches the Gorilla Channel, which doesn't exist because they created it. phony channel for him just so he'd watch gorillas. What? It's good. People are lapping it up. Yeah, gorilla TV. The nipple related documents arguing that Trump had been accused of worse. I think we should put it out, he said. It would cause people to say, we're going

further than we need to. Trump White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles quickly responded that the president would not, in fact, be okay with it. No, don't do that about nipples and me. That's no good. It was a point no one wanted to continue debating. This story summed up the White House dilemma, as the report put it, quote, piles of accusations were impossible to disprove and equally impossible to make go away. Every door they opened led to another room, and in every room were more claims

for more women." Yeah, claims for more women. None of whom will testify because they all get paid off. Yeah. All right, final one. This is about Gates. Billionaire Bill Gates telling Congress that Jeffrey Epstein was, quote, working to use information about my. to pressure Gates to re-engage with him after their business contact had ended, which sounds a lot to me like blackmail. Gates told members of the House Oversight Committee he had no knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein's

crimes. So why did the committee want to hear from Gates? Well, the Epstein files release revealed a degree of philanthropic coordination between Gates and Epstein that was more detailed than previously known, plus, perhaps more importantly, a series of graphic, again, unverified allegations. One involved two draft emails that Epstein appears to have written himself in 2013, claiming that

he had facilitated sexual encounters for Gates. and helped Gates obtain medication to hide a sexually transmitted disease from his wife, his then wife. The allegations, again, unverified, uncorroborated. There's no indication the message was ever shared with Gates, that message in the draft file, or anyone else, frankly. And Gates has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing in

any sort of criminal proceeding. Gates has strongly denied these claims, but he said today Epstein threatened unsuccessfully to pressure him to use what he knew about his infidelities, quote, in addition to many lies that he layered on top. Excuse me to re-engage with Gates After they had cut out, he had cut off contact. Yeah, so sounds like a big nothing. this book, but say, I mean, who publishes this? Well, you look at it, probably Simon and

Schuster. Aren't they the CBS guys? Simon and Schuster. I don't keep track of it as well as I should. It just seems like, well, I don't think there's anything good in this book. because Tapper would be all over it. It's just not there. No, I think you nailed it. What they just talked about is the book. Yeah. So we got a boots on the ground feedback about you calling the iPhone the Antichrist. Oh yeah. Which was

a nice note from Ed. And Ed says... And the funny thing is the note just caught on fire after you read it. Is that not mistaken? Boof. Finally, I can contribute some knowledge value to the show. During the opening of the show, John started talking about how the iPhone is the antichrist. Well, I do sales for Frito-Lay, and I see people staring at their phone all the time while in the grocery store. What they are doing is a form of digital shopping. It's either Instacart or

the store's own shopping app. They look like phone zombies. I see this all day during my work week. Thank you for your attention to this matter. So people are on the shopping app while they're shopping? I've seen this before. You go shot, you're in the grocery store and there's this guys, they're shot, usually men. There's some women too, but mostly men. They grab a product, they look at it, and then they use Google eyes or something and they take a picture and see if they're... price

is okay. to see if they can get a better deal at the next store. I don't know what the point is. Well, this leads into a story that I picked up from KTLA and I looked into the study that is mentioned. Birth rates in the United States and elsewhere started... falling in the year 2007. That is the same year that Apple introduced the iPhone. Is there a connection? Antichrist. Well, new research is suggesting, yeah, that could

be the case. So up till now, the most frequently cited culprits for falling fertility rates were contraception use, abortions, and the rising levels of female education. Now attention is turning to the smartphone. Recently published findings indicate that as much as half of the fertility decline from 2007 to 2011, when the iPhone was exclusive to the AT&T network, could be attributed to the arrival of... Apple's ground bacon

gadget. Ground bacon gadget. By the way, I should mention, this is almost the identical story that ran on KGO locally. Well, it comes from a... It's all over the country. Yes. The National Bureau of Economic Research, they have a study which they published. But it's not peer-reviewed. It's pre-publication. So you know what that means. The claim is the iPhone rollout explains the 33 to 52% of the 2007-2011 U.S. fertility rate decline. quote as much as half.

kind of. Biggest effect on the young births fell to 4.5 to 8%, ages 15 to 19. Wow, 15-year-olds. And 3.2 to 6.6%, ages 20 to 24. However... This is really what they say was the mechanism. Less in-person interaction. Sounds true. more pornography, and less sexual frequency. I don't think you need a study to come up with those results. We could have told you that. Now you need to play your women clip. You're whatever, girls. Yeah, let's play this. This is the... Some questions of the whatever

girls. Name three countries besides the USA. Africa, Asia. I can't even think of a third one. I don't know. How many continents are there? Eight. Six? Six. Name one continent. Do I need to answer? Yep. Oh my... Can you just skip me first? Well, how about this? Let me help. I'll give a hint. You're from which country? China. Which is where? West. West. I don't know. West coast. East. China is in which continent? Oh. Because you're from China. Uh-huh. China is from which continent? East Asia?

Just give it to her, bro. What country is directly north of Mexico? Chloe. North of... North is up or down? I'm confused with the north-south thing. Well, on the map, with your finger, what direction is north and what direction is south? I don't know why that's always been so... confusing to me like I'm sorry I'm that stupid well so the problem is not the kids who weren't born is the ones who were born That's the problem we have here. Wow, that's so sad. Again, that's a

national security issue. You know, I'm taking the side of these women. Okay. It's arbitrary. If you change the axis of the globe, I mean, what's north? Why is it north called north? Why is it not south? And when the poles shift, what happens then? Are you going to call north-south? Okay. And what is up and down? South isn't down. That's down. You're pointing to the center of the earth. isn't your north isn't up that's the that's the satellite you're gonna hit with that finger So I

think a lot of this is just arbitrary. Yeah, you can make anybody look like an idiot. Are you looking for a cameo on the Whatever Girls? podcast i'm sure it can be arranged it'd be great it's just cough and hackalock and i'm just saying So the controversy over Bill Pulte continues. The Democrats in the Senate now have come up with a gambit. I know what we're going to do. We're going to not. to extend Section 702 where you can spy on everybody. Okay, and then FISA,

that is the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. I'm well familiar with it. I know you are too. So it's been under threat of expiring many, many times, but now it actually seems to be happening. And Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, is going to the White House today to... talk about it. He spoke a little bit on the floor yesterday. Watch here. You cannot play politics with

the security of the American people. I am praying that they come to their senses and that the Senate can work this out and we move forward and we do not let this critical national security tool expire. So apparently one of the Democrats big issues is that the acting director of national security. Do you think the president should pull him? I think the president probably is in the process, Adina, of determining the... This is Senator Thune. ...who

the long-term person would be to fill that position. And I think that's going to be an important decision and one that will probably... and whether or not Democrats support this. But here's the issue. This is an irresponsible position for the Senate Democrats to take. The 702 program, first off, you had, you know, it was the air control issues, then it was the border security issues, sanctuary cities.

This is a party of defund the police. open borders, sanctuary cities, and now, now, shutting down one of the most important tools we have to keep people in this country safe. And this thing goes dark at midnight on Friday. And what you heard the Speaker say yesterday is absolutely right. This is an absolutely irresponsible position for the Democrats to take, and one that puts at risk and in jeopardy. the American people if this particular program goes

dark. Are you able to, if there's some resolution today, do you have enough time to prevent it from going dark? It'd be hard. I mean, you know, the Senate, the procedure on the floor, but if we could get cooperation, yes. I mean, obviously it requires cooperation, but that is the goal. And hopefully the Democrats will come to their senses because this is, you cannot. You cannot take these risks. Now I think it's good. Let it go dark. What was... What was 702 before the 9-11? I

don't think it existed. Well, how did we get by? How is it possible that we got by? We didn't. 9-11, fool. That's why we had all of this stuff. Because 9-11. Because. Because 9-11. Patriot Act. Because 9-11. Yeah, we're... I'm surprised... Thune or Johnson didn't say that. Well, you want another 9-11? Eh? And section seven. You save that for the end. Well, he didn't say it at the end. Section 702. No, you say it for the

end if they can't get it to work. If they can't get it through, you've got to start pulling it out. Oh, that'll be, okay. But it's tomorrow. Tomorrow, midnight. This goes dark. It goes dark. Like, oh, the tool isn't gone. The tool is still there. You can still use it. You know. We know from... They just want a surveillance state, and they do a crappy job with it. It hasn't done anything. No. It's just for political purposes. They get to attract Trump. Spy on other campaigns.

Yes. Yeah. That's what you said. clip on this? No, I don't. I'm sorry. I thought I did. Okay. But I do have a clip of the Pope. In the airplane, have you heard this? No, I have not heard about the Pope on the airplane. Here we go. Pope Leo joined the crew aboard his flight to Barcelona today. The pontiff took the cockpit jump seat and chatted with the pilots after taking off from Madrid. Then he put on headphones and started chatting with the Air Force fighter

pilot escorting his plane. The Pope's been in Spain all week for an historic visit. Now, I had not heard that story. It's kind of funny. I like the lighting of the Sagrada Familia. Did you see that? That looks pretty cool. No, what happened? Well, that's the big church that Gaudí... you know, start building, you know, there's been under construction for a while. They went in Barcelona. Yeah. An 80 years. How long has that thing been longer? Long time. I think it's over a hundred, but over

a hundred years. So they kind of said it's complete. Although I don't know if it's ever really complete. They lit it up, man. They lit it up. I'm sure it looks great lit up. Phenomenal. It was a perfect light show. Pope was on hand. They had orchestras playing live. Have you been to that thing? Yeah. Tina and I went three years ago. It's fantastic. I think it's kind of creepy. Really? When's the last time you went? What? When did you last see it? I mean, it's...

About eight years ago. Oh. The difference is a make. A hundred years ago. Well, because when we went there three years ago, it was pretty complete. Inside, it doesn't feel creepy, and outside, you know, it's interesting to look at. I wasn't thinking of the inside being creepy. I think the whole thing is creepy. Oh. I think it's kind of cool. It's an architectural wonder. It's a marvel. You have no appreciation for art. No, it's just that Gowdy stuff is gruesome. There's a bunch of gaudy stuff

all over the town. Yeah, oh yeah, there's the... Is that whole village? We went to that as well, the village where he built all these. Got all the apartment buildings. Oh, yeah, there's a lot of apartment buildings. It all looks like goo. There's a gooey look quality to it. It's like you got something on your fingers and you hold it, you open it, it's like a bunch

of... I always thought it looked like a sandcastle. you build where you drip sand you know you you dribble it on top and you make your little sand castle um So big news in Europe. First of all, the defense secretary, John Healey, resigned saying, you guys aren't serious about this. There's no money to defend the UK. I'm British. Defence Secretary John Healey has resigned from his position

in a dispute over spending on defence. In a letter posted on X, Mr Healey accused Mr Starmer's government, that's of course the Prime Minister, of failing to provide the resources needed to defend the country. John, just that quick read there, Mr Healey. for months now fighting for more spending on defense. Yeah, so what we've heard is, as you mentioned, is very much the defence secretary saying there isn't enough money going in to the armed forces here

in the UK. We have this defence spending review that

was going to be published and will. still be published and the defense secretary quite simply saying that the money needed for him to be able to remain in the job in good faith is not available and it's quite as simple as that he says of course incredibly damaging for Keir Starmer as you might imagine but this seems to be a matter of principle for the defense who has worked on this spending review, has worked out the money needed in order for the UK's armed forces to

have the equipment they need, to have the training they need and to have the right number of them as well with all these challenges facing the country and the world as he put it. And he simply believes that the amount of money that is being made available is not enough. And so he has resigned on that point of principle. This is these are the guys who are going to defend everyone from Russia. which they continue to

say they're going to do without the United States. Well, we got to ramp up our industrial, our military industrial base. And how's that working out for France and Germany? A joint Franco-German fighter jet project championed by Emmanuel Macron and Friedrich Merz has failed to get off the ground. The two leaders have agreed to scrap the deal. Airbus and Dassault Aviation couldn't, it seems, set aside commercial rivalry in a project... designed to help Europe rearm for a

future without American support. Well, clearly, there are vast repercussions on this decision. Let's bring in for some analysis on this, Jeanette Soos, who's a research fellow at the Study Committee for Franco-German Relations. Jeanette, thanks very much for being

with us here. We need your help on this one, because looking at this from a neutral... kind of perspective as I am, it would seem that there would need to be some kind of cooperation between all parties on this kind of project because of its overall importance to the whole continent of Europe. So why has this failed to take off? Yeah, very good question. Thanks for having me, first of all. It's one of the biggest projects or even the biggest project that was foreseen in the

European defense area. So everyone looked at France and Germany and Spain, of course, whether they would make it. Finally, the industrial rivalries were just too big. The project has been stalled. for years now so it didn't really come as a surprise as such although there were mediation efforts being made even lately to break a compromise but this

didn't go through. It seems a little bit depressing that these kind of interests of a company get in the way of the... the greater good, the global sort of need of the whole of Europe. So they couldn't even get their companies to agree on this. Say what you will of Trump. He fixes that stuff real quick. Shut up. Shut up and make it. So they've got nothing. They can't build a fighter jet. got nothing going on. They continue to... poke Volodymyr to blow up stuff in

Russia. It doesn't seem like that's going the way they want it. Or maybe it's exactly what they want. That's possible, too. Yeah, maybe that's what they want. So thank you everybody for the hundreds of emails about peptides. It's highly appreciated. Every you know whenever you get an email that is 2000 words Telling you why it's good or why it's bad. It's like there's too much explaining going on. And it seems like if you want this, it's now, the new name is, it's called GLP-3. That's the

peptide everyone's talking about. That's the Retritude. I can't remember. Yeah. It's a horrible name. It's not a marketing name. I didn't get the clip, but, you know, the GLP-1 is just a Gila monster poison. Well, we talked about that at least two years ago. It's coming around, and it doesn't actually contain GLP-1. It contains Gila monster venom, which has a different medical name and that extended for,

I think. Yeah. And then, and that triggers the G your own GLP one and it paralyzes your stomach and okay. Yeah. And blind you. So your eye rots, it has what they call a black box warning, you know, which is to be. Ignored at all costs. So my conclusion is if you work out and you want to get ripped and you eat tons of protein, you drink your protein shakes and you eat your beef, it's probably going to make you look, they call it the Wolverine. The wolverine peptide, it makes you like a beast, and

that's possible. I'm sure it's good. But I got this note from Renee, who is a... Um... licensed therapist in Portland, Oregon, and she wanted us to know about the mental health industrial complex. And I thought I'd share that because I thought it was. quite good. I work for a large mental health company. I've treated thousands of adult clients. I've noticed trends that I know originate from mental

health content on social media. This content persuades viewers to self-diagnose and to pathologize and medicalize normal human feeling states. as in states of being, states of feeling. Signs of stress become an anxiety disorder. Bad things happening becomes trauma. Quirky personalities becomes autism. Clients are 100% attached to their diagnosis because the diagnosis becomes their identity. this was good. The attitude is clear. Everyone must be diagnosed and medicated

for the greater good. I see this across age groups, backgrounds, locations, politics, and genders. I hear clients scoff at a friend's unmedicated child or a mother-in-law with undiagnosed ADHD. Personality traits that fall outside the approved spectrum of acceptance are... increasingly viewed with suspicion. That's why everyone sounds like they're speaking in an HR meeting. I genuinely worry that at some point people may be coerced to accept the

diagnosis and worse, forced to be medicated. Most of my clients are lifelong therapy consumers. They come in with, on average, three to four diagnoses, and many take two to five psychotropic drugs. I rarely see documentation of such symptoms that justify the diagnosis anymore, and they're being medicated into outer space for it. Lately, I feel like I'm treating anxiety and depression caused by the medications. themselves. Yes, we've identified this. Hello. Which is not something talk therapy can

meaningfully treat. These attitudes are readily visible on Therapist Reddit. I'm not familiar with Therapist Reddit. One thread about clients on the bipolar spectrum is what made me reach out. The phrase bipolar spectrum isn't even a thing. It's not in the DSM. Once you introduce spectrum language, talking with a lot of confidence, optimism, high energy, ambition, and creativity can all become symptoms requiring treatment. Often a mood stabilizer.

anti-psychotic. Lithium is no joke. So if you're confident, have optimism, high energy and ambition. You clearly need to be medicated. That's great. What concerns me most are the responses. Medication is first line. I'd start here. MEDS, not therapy. And my favorite, are there children involved? Then you need to do a risk assessment. Look at the initial symptoms and tell me why they need to ask if children are involved. And she winds up by saying, no, agenda

really got me through the COVID years. I'm starting to post on X, Gen X underscore therapist, Renee. I think that kind of sums it up. And it's sad. But yes. We're on the, we need a spectrum. We need to come up with our own spectrum. The no agenda spectrum. The amygdala spectrum. Something. We need to come up with something. Well, we're on the topic of this sort of thing. Let's do a couple of... Screwball I saved

you and now you just do it again. This is kind of along the similar lines of what you just read. This is, again... First time I've done a double with Brett Weinstein. Whoa. But this is a little discussion of COVID shots. COVID shuts. Let me ask you a question. If this is a two minute and 41 second clip of Brett Weinstein? If you think it's boring, well, you think he's boring, so I shouldn't have said that. No, it's okay. We'll listen to Brett. Let me ask

you a question. Are you still getting COVID boosters? No. You're not? Why not? Well, I've already had COVID a couple times, so I have natural immunity. Oh, so you believe in natural immunity. Well, after the initial vaccine. The entire public health apparatus assured us that. Wait a minute, who is he talking to? Who is he talking to? This is one of his stooges that he has on his show every so often. Oh. A scientist guy who's

all in on the COVID shot. Natural immunity was not good enough and that you still got a benefit from it? Oh, hold on. The mac and cheese spectrum. That's what it is, John. I just saw that in the troll room. Gotta call it out. Mac and cheese spectrum. That's what we're doing. Oh, they got it wrong. Look, Brett. They got many things wrong. Do you remember that moment in time? I do. Do you remember people like

me shouting about this? Yes, I do. OK, so now we find out from Paul Offit that all of the major players gathered together and privately understood the very same thing that they were gaslighting us over. They understood that natural immunity was the best immunity that you were going to come by and that a vaccine wasn't going to augment it. And they decided to keep that to themselves. in spite of the fact that these vaccines are built on a novel technology they didn't know the hazards of,

at best. So how is it that these people can privately meet and decide there's a whole swath, millions of people, hundreds of millions of... people who'd already had COVID who didn't need to take any risk whatsoever from a novel vaccine, how is it that they get to privately decide to keep that information to themselves? And why, given that they did that, given that you remember the moments in history at which they were, not only were they...

disagreeing with us, which was a lie. They were gaslighting us. They were telling people like you that people like me were crazy. Who is the they and the them that he's referencing here? Fauci? He's talking about the Fauci's and everybody who had the meeting that said that we're not going to, we're going to downplay natural immunity and say it doesn't work. Is this news? This is something that's new? No, it's just that I like the excitability.

It's not to us. Yeah, exactly. Let's be realistic. We're not going to play anything that's news to us. True. It's just that these guys, these Charlie-come-latelys, or Johnny-come-latelys, let me get the... Charlie come lately. Charlie come lately. These Charlie come lately's come in and they're all, like Weinstein, I put in that category. He was on the right side of the argument, but then he's all bent out of shape because he's stunned. He's stunned there's gambling going

on. And you can stop playing that clip. Let's skip to another clip. Okay. This is also long. You can stop playing at some point. This is Michael Yeadon. This is a guy who worked for Pfizer. He's a Pfizer researcher, I think. Yeah. And he says, and this, by the way, the only reason I want to play this is because this is something you suggested on day one. Of the COVID-19 epidemic, or pandemic. Epidemic. Pandemic. Screwball-demic, yeah.

There has not been a pandemic. Dennis Rancourt's data shows that the all-cause mortality data did not increase at all in the run-up to the declaration, fraudulently. by WHO pandemic. There is no public health emergency except that created by our governments. a inappropriate fraudulent PCR test was used to give people the impression that they had a particular disease where they didn't. They were all the normal diseases. And

then what happened was... In three different ways, people were treated badly through changed medical procedures that were imposed above the level of nation. Briefly, mass ventilation of people inappropriately in hospitals that led to lots of deaths. In care homes, many people were given sedatives and... respiratory depressants which led to their deaths. My PhD was specifically in that area of opiates and respiratory depression. And in the community,

people were denied. life-saving antibiotics and died of bacterial pneumonia. There's your pandemic. There is no other pandemic. And based on this line, We were told that vaccines were coming our way and would be our savior. You mean this was the testing piece, the PCR? Is that what you're referring to? No, the fact that there's no pandemic. There was no pandemic ever. This is the thing we once in a while still bring up, the fact that... For some curious reason, there was not one flu death. And

no cases of the flu that one year. Yeah, it was amazing. So his theory is there was no pandemic. The whole thing was a fake. Yes. And it was like just exaggerated by the phony baloney PCR test to make it look like there was more going on than there was. And I think that's backed up by my thoughts on the ambulances in front of the hospital that show up on the nightly news but weren't there three hours later when a YouTuber goes by. Yeah. Yeah, just

one of those clips. They're starting to come out now. Yeah. All in hindsight. And it won't mean anything. Of course it won't. Let's talk about the Jews for a second. I have a couple of Jew clips. In particular, Israel. Uh, the great one, your boy. Mark Levin? Yes, your boy, the great one. Mark! Levin. They're hired. America. I was waiting for your cue. He's very, he's very upset with the president. He's upset with the president for

yelling at BB. I don't know why the president of the United States feels the need to keep going to left-wing reporters and talking about confidential conversations he has with the Prime Minister of Israel. And I don't know why he keeps bashing the prime minister of Israel. He's trying to protect his country and his own people. Just a few weeks ago, their fighter jets were fighting right alongside

ours. The Mossad was working with the CIA. And of course, the prime minister was working with the president in what was a spectacular military operation. I know the president is deeply desperate for a deal. The Iranians know he's deeply desperate for a deal. The whole world knows he's deeply desperate for a deal. Got it. And Israel's told it can only fight a defensive war. And Israel's told to stay away from Beirut, even though the head of the snake is right outside of Beirut. The hypocrisy of

our country that wouldn't put up with it. in the treatment of that country is ridiculous. In fact, we don't ask any other country to do that. None. So why the constant beating up of Netanyahu? In fact, there was an announcement from the White House last night saying we had nothing to do with this. Our military is not involved. And I commented. Well, that's nothing to be proud of. So Mark Levin is not happy with how this is going. I'm not happy the president is bashing BB.

But the interesting thing that popped up. I think Marjorie Taylor Greene. And I kept hearing about people saying, even here, the ladies of Fredericksburg on the text group. I think Tina asked me, said, Is America going to integrate its army, its military, with the Israeli military? I'm like, what? What? Have you heard this talk? Yeah, I have. So this is about Section 2. of the National Defense Authorization Act. Which is always fun. But there's a lot

of different stuff. In here that is worth talking about. Now, very hard to get a straight read of 224, what's really in it. I was only able to find one. W-I-O-N, which comes with the appropriate Indian accent, but at least the information is correct. All right, and moving on, a new provision in U.S. House version of the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act, released earlier this week, is now drawing attention for its potential implications for U.S. Israeli

defense starts. According to a report by Responsible States Craft, a provision in the Act known as Section 224, it lays the groundwork for bilateral research and development, co-production of weapons, joint ventures, licensing agreements, and seemingly every manner of

U.S. and Israeli military-industrial complex cooperation. This provision would greatly expand coordination to seemingly every area of defense tech, including AI, quantum, autonomous systems, directed energy, cyber, biotech, and many more. It also proposes network integration and data fusion. In other words, the report suggests that U.S. military's data could soon be the Israeli military's data. data. So... It's an

integration of technology and data. And of course the likely suspects Massey and Kahana are trying to get it out. We can't have this. We can't integrate these militaries. Dr. Thomas Massey yesterday stated if the provision to the National Defense Authorization Act, which would basically integrate the U.S. and Israeli militaries goes through. See, I love how that essentially integrates them. They're one. It's the one and the same. I'll offer an amendment to strip it off, to strip

it from the bill on the floor. Thomas Ro Khanna then responded to that today and stated, I will be offering an amendment in the committee. itself to strip section 224 out, Thomas Massey. Trump can't kill the Massey-Kahana partnership no matter how much he posts on Truth Social. Oh, yeah, the Massey-Kahana partnership. Let's find out what this really is about because it's kind of interesting. The U.S. and Israel have a 10-year defense agreement ending in fiscal year

2028. The U.S. committed $3.3 billion per year in foreign military financing grants, plus $500 million for missile defense cooperation. That's $38 billion total. Yeah, over 10 years. We have financially supported Israel since 1949. What began mostly as economic aid has become, over time, a heavily military relationship. The

fiscal year... The new U.S. Defense Act, Section 224, would create a lead office inside the Pentagon to synchronize U.S.-Israel cooperation across AI, quantum computing, cyber defense network integration, and data fusion. To be clear, integration in defense technology does not equal a literal merger of armed forces. In my opinion, it's nearly as bad. may be worse. So let

me explain. There are two older bills, both called the United States-Israel Defense Partnership Act of 2025, which have been sitting in committee since February 2025 with over 200 combined co-sponsors. The same policy concepts now appear in the must-pass NDAA process. So the idea is to, I guess the... 3.3 billion. which is the money we're giving to Israel that people have their panties in a bunch over, which they need to spend on our military stuff. is coming

to an end in 2028. So this, of course, needs to be rejiggered so we can't lose $3.3 billion. for the military-industrial complex. So they decided to do it a different way to end that, which I think is cosmetic. Well, oh, we're not giving money to Israel anymore. And I'm against this section. 224 but for different reasons and it's in this clip. Stephen Simon from the Quincy Institute published a brief this month. His brief is a warning.

the next phase of U.S.-Israel defense support may become less visible. Under the current agreement, about 25% of the annual $3.3 billion grant, roughly $825 million a year, could be spent by Israel inside its own defense industry. But that phase is down to zero by FY2028. Simon's warning is that instead of... simply ending that support, the relationship would

be reorganized. Israeli firms and Israeli origin technology would become more embedded inside U.S. defense procurement, co-production, research and development, licensing, and sustainment programs. Plain English, the aid check could disappear from public view while the financial support continues via Pentagon budget. and procurement systems that are much harder for the public to track. Foreign military financing is visible. We can see when it's debated in Congress. We can see

when it's budgeted. And because it's foreign aid, lawmakers can ask questions about conditions, accountability, and whether the support should continue. Pentagon procurement is different. It runs through weapons contracts, production lines. research programs, and co-production agreements. The language is not diplomacy or human rights. It's readiness, capability, and whether a system supports the U.S. military. What we have right now, which is a foreign aid package, can be used

as leverage over their conduct. A co-production contract is treated more like a business. arrangement. If the partner company delivers the system, meets the contract terms, and supports the mission, the contract has done what it was designed to do. That's a major oversight gap. Simon's conclusion is blunt. Quieter does not mean smaller. The financial flows could be as large as or larger than. The current grant. They just

will not look like aid. Once these programs are embedded in production lines, U.S. contractors, workers, and supply chain become part of the argument to keep them going. Simon's point. The support may not disappear. It may move into a less visible system that is harder for the public. Yeah, so I'm- I'm not against the integration of the technologies and all that, but no, the Pentagon needs to pass an audit before we can do anything with that. That's a hole. It's a black hole. It'll cost us much,

much more. Yeah, this is typical. Where's the audit? Yeah. Where's that even a theme? Why isn't Massey even mentioning this, does he? Yes, thank you. No, of course not. Big talk or blah, blah, blah. What about the audit, dork? Yeah, that's why I'm against it. Stop that nonsense. Although, you know, supposedly it's all better now. Hegs has got his finger on the pulse. He's got his finger on the pulse. He's going to take care of all of it for us. And then, oh, I'm sorry. Go

ahead. Oh, go ahead. I'd play a clip that's kind of fun. This is a... Out of New York. They're really making headway there in New York State. Have you heard about the gestating parents? gestating parents. No. Definitions in New York. state, actually. New York Democrats argue the words mother and father are outdated and need to be replaced with more inclusive. terms under state law. All that's needed

now is Governor Kathy Hochul's signature. So if Hochul approves, in New York's family court and in domestic and education law, a mother would be labeled as a gestating parent, a father as a non-gestating parent, and paternity proceedings to determine the child's father would be called parentage proceedings. The bill passed the state senate this week and the state assembly back in March. Governor Hochul proudly calls herself New York's first mom governor. No, gestating governor. She can't be

a mom governor. She has to be the gestating governor. Yeah, I had heard about that. This to me exemplifies... that it doesn't make a big difference whether Spencer wins or loses the mayoral... spot in LA because the city council in LA and the same in San Francisco, they're all nuts. Yeah, they are. And you have the same thing at the state level, the legislative body in New York and California. are nuts. Yeah. They are. And what are you going to do about it? Nothing. Keep podcasting.

Keep on going. We can do it. Keep podcasting. I want to hear the Nick Reiner story before we take a break here. Yeah, play this. Nick Reiner needs money. New court documents tonight reveal a high-stakes fight in the case against... Nick Reiner. He's the 32-year-old son of actor and director Rob Reiner, who's accused of killing his parents last December. Reiner wants a judge to order the release

of money from his trust fund. National correspondent Carter Evans is here to explain how that fund might be used for his defense. Carter. Well, good evening, Matt. Nick Reiner's trust fund is worth an estimated $1.5 million, and today his legal team filed a petition requesting access to that money. Now, Reiner's attorneys argue he was entitled to receive half of the trust when he turned 30, but that

never happened. Reiner is now 32. In the court filing, Reiner's attorneys say the trustee who manages the fund knew the... but is still refusing to release the money, citing concerns regarding Nick's capacity to make sound decisions. Now, Reiner says he needs the money to help pay for his legal defense in his murder trial and to fund his commissary account while he's in prison. The newly filed petition suggests money may have already played a role in the

defense. High-profile defense... defense attorney Alan Jackson initially represented Reiner but withdrew from the case and the documents reveal Reiner sought trust distributions to potentially bring Jackson back onto the case. Reiner is currently represented by a public defender. A judge will now decide whether the money must be released and if so, under what conditions. Ah, poor guy. - He's nuts. yeah fund his commissary accounts 100 bucks a

month Uh... Let's just talk about Platner before we go, because I find this to be kind of interesting. Yeah, Platner got in. He breezed in. Platner, of course, is the... Is the guy the right? wing loves to hate and he's got a Nazi tattoo and he beats his wives or beats his women, locks them up. He's a mean a-hole and he's got a lot of Reddit posts that are no good. Yeah, no good, no good. Do you have a clip? Yeah, Plattner. Many Maine voters told

us today. they were willing to look past Graham Plattner's controversies if it would help Democrats win back power in Washington. I think it's so important that the Democrats capture the Senate seat that I'm willing to vote for a candidate whom I think is quite imperfect. Plattner himself did some last-minute door-knocking. Continuing to make his case after allegations from several former girlfriends appeared in the New York Times, accusing him of unsettling and toxic behavior. One alleged he

grabbed her and left marks. There are some allegations in this piece that I just want to be kind of unequivocal about are simply not true. Plattner, an oyster farmer and Marine veteran. has acknowledged he sent sexually explicit text messages to other women early in his marriage. His wife has defended him, and the two appear in a campaign video released today. Just last night, his former political director warned that Plattner should not be a U.S. senator, writing

he exhibits a pattern of dishonest behavior. That's impossible to ignore. Plattner is still expected to win tonight, but with control of the U.S. Senate on the line in November, the questions about his past could be a liability as he tries to take out the veteran Republican Susan Collins. Plattner has caught fire among progressives here who say they

want a senator who can buck President Trump. Bernie Sanders is Plattner's top supporter, and he said this week that despite the controversies, he'll do everything he can to help Plattner get elected. All right, well. David Brooks was not happy with Platner. He had this to say about him. Some people are dismissing. this as politically motivated. How are you looking at all this? The guy's a moral degenerate. You know, the abuse of women, the sexting, the Nazi

tattoo. I don't even need to say anything beyond his Reddit posts, which are not in the past, by the way. He did that for a long time, abusing rape people who might have been raped. diminishing rape in the military, insulting fellow military officers, calling himself a communist. It's a pathetic, empty guy who postures in a way that's kind of repulsive. There are 330 million Americans and there are 100 senators. We can't have a decent human being

in those 100? We've got to settle for this? You know, I just think The people, the Democrats are supporting Platinum for the same reason the Trump people are supporting Trump. Oh, okay, there it is. And I hate to do this, but no show is complete without a clip from The View. At the tone, a clip from The View will be played. Shelter in place. Controversial Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner won the which could help his party take the Senate. of inappropriate behavior against him and his

former campaign manager publicly pulling her support for him. people are split on the baggage he's bringing into this general election. rules the day and it stops being about people, he'll lose me every time. We have literally witnessed some of the most disgusting humans rising in power, handed over by voters, and you are telling me we're going to put another person up and turn our faces at the human he's shown us he is. And it has nothing

to do with his marital discrepancies. I honestly, in this day and age, Don't care. That's personal to me. That Nazi tattoo that he supposedly has covered up and said he didn't know what it meant, but many ex-girlfriends said he used to proudly call it what it is, a totem cough, which is a Nazi symbol. He has shown us who he is. This was the party of Me Too. Women have made accusations. They have not been proven yet. But weren't we supposed to listen and hear them?

The numbers of anti-Semitic hate. And this guy proudly wore a tattoo for years. And we're going to say, well, this time, because we might agree with this policy, we can turn our heads. I cannot turn my head, Susan. Look, I don't think Republicans at this point can ask us to take the moral high ground. There you go. That is over. There you go. That is over. That's right. I am sorry. Democrats have always fallen in love

and Republicans have always fallen in line. It's time for Democrats to stop that nonsense, put emotions on the side. Let's be strategic. Let's get some power. Let's take over the Senate. Let's take over the House. Let's right the ship. Let's get our country back. I am sorry. I am someone that believes in character. I am someone that believes that morals matter. But not now. Because of the state of this country, I would, if I lived in Maine, I would hold my nose and I would vote

for Platinum. Yeah, for Platinum. That's right. Totem cough? Is that what they called it? Yeah, totem cough. Like C-O-U-G-H? No, no, cop. Yeah, head. Oh, totem cough. Oh, totem cough. Like scheiss cough. I like totem cough myself as a show title. Totem Cough Okay, breaking news, breaking news. The deal could be signed this weekend! No, there goes the market. No, actually, looking at oil is down almost 5% right now. It's 86. That's what you want. Yeah,

yeah. Yeah, and then the market, the stock market is skyrocketing. Yeah, what do you mean? Oh, I thought you meant it was bad. No, the... Dow Jones, 929. NASDAQ up 640. It's primed for Elon. It's beautiful. It's going to be beautiful. Tomorrow's going to be fantastic. Can't wait to see. For you, Len. Yeah, for you. Well, yeah, for you. What, tell me you don't have friends and family stock? Not for that. No. And apparently the president has nominated Jay Clayton to be the director of national

intelligence. So, I don't know, that seems a little quick. I thought Pulte had some business to take care of. Maybe he already did. We'll have to see. So I have one last clip. play. Which is a, I'm thinking of making this a, like a segment. An item, a segment. Yes, we need a jingle. And this is about, and this segment is what I'm going to call First World Problems. Oh, wait, I thought we had it. Oh, no, you had a segment before, which is that didn't

happen. Well, that didn't happen as different than first world problems. I know, but you've never followed up. So, okay, we need a jingle for it. Well, I mean, I could add that too, but I haven't been able to find enough that didn't happen. So I think I can find plenty of these. Okay. Do you want an on-the-fly jingle? First World War! problems. We've got to start fighting back against these coffee shops. I got a coffee yesterday. I got an ice. I got a latte. It was

an extra 50 cents to add ice. That should be illegal. I'm sorry. You're a coffee shop. Coffee comes ice sometimes. Don't charge me 50 cents. for it. I got an extra dollar to add vanilla. I know they didn't make that in-house. I know that's a bottle of Monin or whatever it's called. They charged me a dollar for almond milk. In the year of 2026, alternative milk should

not be a dollar more. It shouldn't be any upcharge at all, but it certainly should not be a dollar because your dairy milk should not be the cheapest shit you can find at the store. So all in all, $8.50 for my iced vanilla latte. That was not exceptional in any way. $8.50 for my iced vanilla latte with a tip, so $9.50. 9.50 for an iced vanilla latte? I made a better one this morning at my house with my Nespresso. These coffee shops are... Out of control.

Out, out, out, out, out of control. This is the generation that says they have not ever witnessed prosperity like their parents? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Well, we'll get a jingle. You should bring more of those. In the meantime... I think there's plenty to be had. I think you're right. People need mundane, banal complaints about the price of an

ice mocha vanilla almond latte. And with that, I would like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in Charlie, come lately, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only mister. *DRAAAAAAAMN* Well, good morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry. Good morning to all the ships at sea, boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and the dames and knights out there. Oh, I'm missing all the noisemakers.

That's too bad we don't have those. 1319 today on the troll count who are listening live at no agenda stream calm or use using one of the modern podcast apps, turns out that the number two most used app for this podcast, there was a survey done recently over at livewire.io. So number one is Apple, legacy app with about 30%. Number two is Podverse. That's quite extraordinary. That, you know, we have been promoting the alternative and modern

podcast apps and people are actually using it. And the reason why, well, there's two that I can think of besides transcripts, chapters, location, people tag, all kinds of cool stuff. Did you just, what was that sound you made? You're slurping. Stop slurping. The benefits, within 90 seconds of publishing the podcast, it will show up in your modern podcast app through the Podping technology. That is something that

you will not get with the legacy apps. And when we go live, we fire off the bat signal and you will be able to listen to the live. broadcast in your podcast app. This is something that is just not available anywhere else. I don't think they're ever going to do it. I don't know why, because they would capture so much, but that's fine. We're happy to do it with our modern podcast apps, podcastapps.com. We are value for value here at the No Agenda Show. Soon to

be celebrating our ninth. 19th anniversary in October, and we have never had an ad. We've never taken corporate money. We've never put you on subscriptions that you can't get off of. All we've said is if you get value out of the show for any reason, you laughed, you cried, you got mad, you learned something, got a stock tip, felt smarter about yourself. felt better about yourself, had something to talk about at the water cooler, you were informed, just send the value back to us any way

that you want to, time, talent, or treasure. We love the boots on the ground. We love the expert. I mean, we have the best and the most producers of any podcast, probably any media property in the universe at all, because we do this collectively. And by the same token, we also need the treasure because we need to be able to pay the bills. And one way that people always like to help out is by giving us some artwork to use for our album art. We've been

changing that for, gosh, almost since the beginning. putting different art into our into our podcast. And once again, the artwork came not just as artwork, but we knew that when we chose it, it would be accompanied by a video. We congratulate Francisco Scaramanga for bringing us the Spank the Press art, which a lot of people liked. And I knew it. I knew he would do a video. and he did not disappoint. Did you see the video? It was good. Yeah, there's spanking the press. Spanking the

press is a good thing. I really, and I think I even said if he doesn't do a video, we're never choosing him again. You didn't say that, but it's a funny, it's a good threat. What you said was... If he keeps doing videos, we're going to not pick anybody else unless they start doing videos too. That's what I said. Yes, thank you for reminding me. That's right. Because the videos is cool. Everybody can do them. And it gives extra bonus points for the show. It's great.

There are a couple other pieces of art that we look like. A lot of... screw worm art. I liked blue acorn screw worm. You thought it was too gruesome? You didn't want that one. Ryan M. Scott spammed the art generator, noartgenerator.com. Then there was Harvey Weinstein spanking the press. No. A lot of... big boobs. With tomahawks, no. Um... The devil phone, Matthew Dropko. He had the right idea, not a great execution. Personally, I kind of like the back rooms. You thought it was nothing. It was

the... It was a takeoff on the movie. Oh yeah, I didn't like that at all. You didn't like that. Well, I hadn't seen the movie and I... You thought it was no good. You thought it was no good. No, you had the thesis. You said, the young, the kids, them kids are going to see that and they're going to think we're hip. That's exactly how I talked about it. And then there was the... Was the boobs calculator, I know you used it for the newsletter, was that part of this run as well? The speak and

spell. I think it was. No. No, was that the previous? I'm not sure. We get so much art. I think it was the previous. Yeah. Yeah. We get a lot of art. And I don't know if we have the one we'll pick. yet so there's plenty of time for you to upload to noagendaartgenerator.com we love going through it it also shows us the things that hit during the show gives us a good idea of what people like hearing and we appreciate all of the work the

prompting that everybody does And now for the talent. portion or that i'm sorry the treasure portion of time talents and treasure which you can support the show by going to noagendadonations.com and it can be any amount we love the uh the numerology of it Love that when people just come up with something crazy. We've had a lot over the years. And we start. with John from Meridianville,

Alabama, who was kind enough to send us $1,000. He added the fees, which is $30.26, and he says, Dear Adam and John, I've been listening to the show for longer than I would like to admit as a douchebag, but after John's publicity stunt... I have been compelled to donate. Not long after John rejoined the show, my dad

had a similar incident resulting in a quadruple bypass. Witnessing John's steady recovery provided comfort and helped reduce the anxiety that comes from watching a family member undergo such an extensive procedure. I'm happy to report he is doing well. and is well on his way to a full recovery. We're happy to hear that. As for me, I'm a recently retired Army Defense Artillery Officer with 22 years of experience operating and planning for the... employment, he says, deployment

of air defense systems from mud to space. I'm currently at the epicenter of air and missile defense development in the Huntsville, Alabama area, and I'm looking forward to providing my insights into recent events as we have seen a decisive shift to drone-centric warfare coupled with large volleys of ballistic and cruise missiles. You are hereby going to have to provide us boots on the ground. Yes. For my night name, I would like to be called Sir Tin

Lee Hungwell. Sir Tin Lee Hungwell, Red Knight of the Rocket City, and would like to splurge on one of those $800 tomahawk ribeyes for the roundtable. Apologies for the long note. No thank you for your courage. No jingles, no karma. I will give him a detail. You've been de-douched. Okay, Michael Miller. In Sausalito, California, 103026. Glad you two are still putting out the best podcast in the universe. Looking forward to the lapel pin to add to

my no agenda paraphernalia. Karma for all. Oh, comma for all. Oops, I'm sorry. Sorry, I screwed that up. Where's my comma for all? There we go. You've got karma. I want to mention something I want to put in the newsletter. Okay. And I'm thinking about... Maybe we should rethink. one of our old promotions. Okay. So if you look at... When Trump is sitting, I think it's in the Oval Office behind his desk. On his immediate left side, there's a bunch of photos of his old family

and stuff. And on his right side, and I have a picture out which I'll put in the newsletter eventually. sooner than later. uh a display of what appears to be a probably 50 challenge coins of all sorts. Yes, we used to be big on the challenge coins. And it just looks cool. And so the president of the United States, who sets the moral tone for the nation, according to every political science course you'll ever take. is into challenge coins. It sounds like an opportunity. It just

hasn't been discussed. Somebody, some reporter is going to have to ask him about it. because I haven't heard anything. About his challenge coins? Yeah, he's got a ton of them. They're right off his right shoulder. Well, because he's hanging out with the military all the time. So, you know, Mr. President, I want to give you this challenge coin. I get it. He doesn't have to display them. Well, don't you display yours? I have a lot of them. Yeah. I display mine proudly. I got some really

cool ones. Yeah, I got some cool ones too. Thank you, Michael Miller. Walter Bax is in London. That's in Ontario. in uh... candanavia now he sent us $1,000 Canadian, which sadly comes out to $716.46. However, we do honor the dollarettes and the dollary dues. He's a first-time donator. And every time I hear the order of the heart jingle, it tugs at my heartstrings. I hope you'll honor my 1,000 Canadian dollarettes. as it will be my honor to be Sir Walter Back's Order of the Heart. Thanks

for all... Red Knight, Order of the Heart. Thanks for all you do. Yes, I think that is approved in advance, and we'll also give you a dedouche. You've been dedouched. Yes, we obviously are going to go for that. We had another guy, which was coming up later, who said it's $300 in Canadian. dollars literally in cash. Oh wow. The new plastic money. Can we even swap that? Can we even get that out? I have to go

to an exchange or something. I'm not sure where I'm gonna because the our bank that we use used to do it. when they stopped. We'll figure it out. 361 Black Sheep in Johnson City, Tennessee 341 for 63. This donation is reflective of my father's birthday 5/14/51. He passed away while I was in Kuwait. I was coming home for his service but then we were evacuated due to ongoing tensions. My prayer, which was answered, I believe, was for him to accept Jesus Christ late in his cancer

battle with the help of the pastor he did. His last act, according to his wife, was to reach up. at three o'clock-ish in the morning, then he expired. My hope and prayer is that he found what I and so many others. found salvation prayers for you both. This donation is a switcheroo in honor of Claude Kitchen Van Jr., retired Navy air traffic controller. Give him some. I'm going to give you the whole load and some karma of your choice, Adam. God bless, Sir E61 Black Sheep.

I'm going to give you the whole load today. You've got karma. And we go to London in the UK, Sir Luke Rayner. well known adam and john has been 15 years since my first donation and with this 346 dollars i've finally become a duke. When I was knighted in 2014, I joked I'd one day be Sir Luke the Duke. And here we are. Thank you, Adam and John, for all the laughs of media deconstruction. It was great to meet you both at the London meetups. No coffee or honey to promote, but I do have a

you mentioned. I couldn't get any more celebrities. My tokens all ran out. You burned your tokens. There's a scam going on, too. With the tokens? No, with these websites.

the same. They got the same voices and then they got the same. Oh, join with your Google account. So you do that and you get the exact same screens. And you bought tokens? No, I bought nothing. Those are all the stuff you get free. Oh, okay. Okay, so what do you got? Well, let's start with geniuses. These two geniuses nailed it again. Wow, she went to British at the end there.

Like champagne? No, not like champagne. Oh, okay. So it's a wine cooler is what you're saying. It's beyond any wine cooler you think you've had. What was the name of that? It was really popular for a while in the college girls. No, no, no, no. We call them. What was the name of
