 Gotcha. We are here. I'll be wondering, what happened to the Bernie Bird? Well, I was so impressed, I was so impressed by Bernie Sanders' new video on Social Security that I decided to lay off of Bernie Sanders and not pick on him. And the Bernie Bird was a way of picking on Bernie Sanders. So I left the Bernie Bird home to roost. Fucking furnace. So anyway, I left the Bernie Bird, I have to raise my volume now. I left them home because I was so damn impressed by that fantastic, decent length, not a short video, a nice one. Video on Social Security, why it's not broke, it's far from being broke, it's good for another 19 years. And incidentally, Republican scumbags, Paul Ryan, an ugly, jolly turtle, a faced Mitch McConnell, bitch McConnell. Social security is not yours to steal to begin with, it was paid for. You know, they want to slash it 50%. And you know, I mean, with all the real important serious problems facing the United States, I mean real serious problems. Aside from Donald Trump's appointees or being a bunch of ultra-right-wing corporatists, fascists, aside from that. And guess who just got picked for Secretary of State? Oh, Mad Dogg. Rex Tillerson. I don't know. CEO of ExxonMobil. So the man who wants to be the president for all the people, Donald Trump. All the people. All the people, not just some of the people, is picking all wealthy top 20% or top 1%, whatever you want to call them, all CEOs and right-wing individuals. And he's picking everyone for his cabinet and including evangelical religious nuts. Everyone in his cabinet seems to be a far right-wing corporate fascist and oligarch. Well, they all favor business over people. That's the big... Profits over people on the planet. They all have that in common. Right. So the man that wants to be the president for all the people is picking those that are not going to work for the people. Correct. Therefore, how can Donald Trump honestly work for the people, we the people, you? If his cabinet is far right-wing corporates and religious lunatics. Right-wing evangelical nuts that cannot prove their religion and their God exists. Interesting how his campaign promises are turning into lies. People have heard he kind of on Twitter or online beat up on this young girl who challenged him about women's rights. She's a former... And she's a former, I think, Jeb Bush supporter, which I'm very disappointed that a millennial would do anything to help a Republican shame on you. She must be a rich girl. Anyway, she challenged Donald Trump about an issue concerning women's rights and he went on a tirade and picked on him, picked on her. Also, what happened was, I mean, I don't know how true this is, but he, Donald Trump, I think, had words with a union leader. Yes. And all of a sudden the union leader started threatening phone calls. Yes. All right, you heard about that one. Okay, now, little chiseless hall of shame. I told a friend of mine that expect the sales of liquor to skyrocket since Donald Trump was elected and all the people he appointed to his cabinet, expect that to stimulate liquor sales tremendously. What else can you do, man? You did it, you did it, you Americans did it, you inbred, redneck teabaggers did it. You shot yourself in both feet. You got your right wing Republicans in office. I mean, Bernie Sanders could say all he wants about Donald Trump touching a nerve with angry frustrated people. Well, you don't, you don't continue to elect those that have not worked for you in the past, do not work for you today and will not work for you in the future. Because you're not draining the swamp. As Mr. Trump, he said he was going to do. Well, I'm getting to that. Maybe his swamp, maybe Donald Trump's swamp, doesn't mean get rid of the bad guys and put in the good guys. Maybe he wants to get rid of the good guys and put in fascism, corporate oligarch control. He wants to get rid of people like the head of the EPA. The EPA is working in the benefit of the people. They don't like that. Businessmen don't like that. You see it with the pipeline. Well, and the climate and he's embracing climate change deniers now. Only because he has to. That's all he really has to do, but he didn't use his own money for his campaign. I don't think Donald Trump owes anybody any favors, does he? Donald Trump? Yeah. Absolutely he does. You mean the people that voted for him? Every businessman owes someone else something. You know what the Bible says. They're not innocent. And what about all the conflicts of interest? That's another thing. Well, that's it. Now, the Bible, I was too lazy to write them down, but there is a verse that said, it makes haste to be rich shall not be innocent. And as a nail sticketh between two stones, so does sin stick to buying and selling. And there are many other... What did Jesus throw out of the synagogue? Yeah, there are many... The money changes. The money changes. Sellers of doves and all that kind of shit to burn up. There are many other... There are many other verses supporting the poor against the rich, or just commanding that the rich help the poor. And the Bible's full. But of course, Republicans want to throw out the New Testament altogether and just keep the part of the Old Testament where you torture people and kill them and stone them to death. They like that part. But the New Testament where Jesus, after Jesus came along and now he's supposed to give it to the poor, they don't like that part. Well, the Old Testament has that too. There's no difference. No, but they... All right, so let's just say Republicans and right-wing evangelical cultists like to cherry-pick from the Bible only what they like. But the problem is, as the Bible says, where your treasure is, that is where your heart is. And that's the problem with business. Sounds like idolatry to me. Love of money. That's correct. Love of money. That's where their heart, their love is. And that's why you can't trust them. So the wolf in sheep's clothing might be accurately describing both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Yeah, and they aren't sneaking in. They're being invited in now, the wolves, into the chicken houses. The fox with Trump. The fox is now in charge of the henhouse. The fox. Now Fox News, the literal fox, is in charge of the henhouse. And you people put them there. You people put them there. Oh, no, you couldn't... You know what was really tough about campaign year 2016 is that the options just weren't there. Now, the option... Well, there was an option that was Bernie. Well, Bernie was... Yeah, Bernie was... Why didn't those stupid people that you said before who ended up voting for Trump, why didn't they vote for Bernie? Bernie put all of this stuff out there that was going to help them. And yet he got slapped across the face. You didn't really... You didn't really hear much about what states would allow you to write Bernie Sanders in. I mean, you know, the problem is... All right, the media arranged it so the American people would not really know Jill Stein and the Green Party. She didn't get the free publicity that the media gave Donald Trump. He got the most coverage of anybody. But he didn't have to pay for it. He didn't have to pay for it. All he had to do is come out with outrageous statements. Crazy statements. So you didn't hear Jill Stein's name really be mentioned until now. Now, of course, she's news because of the recount. See, she's news because of the huge recount project that she's on. Now you hear Jill Stein let them write, but not before. So because of the US media not doing their job like they're supposed to as unbiased journalists, you only heard about Donald Trump constantly and Hillary Clinton. You didn't hear about any options. Bernie Sanders, the huge mistake he made that pissed off his Bernie crats, Bernie supporters was that when he endorsed Hillary Clinton. If he didn't endorse Hillary Clinton and he made other suggestions, then the old people that went to his rallies wouldn't be so upset because now Bernie Sanders on the internet would tell people, okay, that was plan A. I got screwed. The DNC screwed me. Now it's time for plan B. He didn't do that. He just flat out endorsed Hillary Clinton and joined Elizabeth Warren and the rest of them. So the options weren't there. Yes, I blame the US media, but also I blame Bernie Sanders for just, what's the word, capitulating? He didn't do that. He was a realist. He did what he had to do. The realism is the fact that massive amounts of people showed up at Bernie Sanders' rallies that could have, her instruction, showed up at Jill Stein's. They weren't the electors. They were big boys and girls. So what you're saying is that you ought to sell off your integrity and go with the big boys because they're called the big boys. I don't do that. I'm sorry. No, that's not the issue. The issue is if you want to win in that particular situation. Well, big freaking deal if you want to win. Hillary had it all stacked up. Oh, great, yeah. All right. The winner, Hillary Clinton. All right, so what do you have? Capitalism. Capitalism. Capitalism. You still have the oligarch. You still have to barely get by. It's a big deal. You haven't turned the U.S. government into a business and that's what Trump is doing. Now, I got to salute the Prime Minister, Trudeau of Canada. From what I understand, this article said he will start a universal, a basic universal salary for Canadian citizens, which is generally what they do in socialist countries like Scandinavia, right? The basic universal salary along with the single-payer healthcare system. So, you know, I'm waiting for Canada to make the announcement that hemp is 100% legal and it always forms and just start planting tons and tons of hemp all over Canada. Then I would be really ecstatic, but I want to salute Prime Minister Trudeau anyway and dedicate the show to him. Little chiseless hall of shame. The titanium ceramic, supposedly nonstick, Gotham steel pin. As of today, I have to always use oil in order to use it, so I'm back to the original crappy pans that I had before. The infomercial live. You have a money-back guarantee. And I had it too long. No, I don't think there was a date on it. I'll check QVC. I already left my reviews. I'll check QVC on the thing. I mean, of course, I'm going to have to get... You're going to have to find a box. Lifetime guarantee. I think so. I'm going to have to find a box. Well, you know, you're right. There's no damage to the pan. Because QVC may have sold it and have nothing to do with it because... The warranty comes from the company. It wasn't carelessly used. It was never damaged. It just failed to perform as the advertisement stated. So now what I've got to do is I've got to check on that. And I have to go out and buy the old-fashioned cast iron jumbo skillet and just forget about infomercials, you know? But shame on you, Gotham Steel Pan, the company that makes it, and the douchebag that does... Well, there's two douchebags so far. The infomercial on the Gotham Steel Pan, shame on you, Chisela's Hall of Shame, inductees for this week. Now, I'm going to say this one more time. And not that anybody... anybody criticized me lately, but I'm going to say this one last time. You people out there, this is not meant to be a state-of-the-art high-tech studio like the Young Turks have with Chubby Sink, okay? This is very low-budget, grassroots revolution environment for doing this progressive talk show. That's it. Content, content, content. It should be about content. That's it. And the personalities that you have before you. That's all. If you're going to nitpick, there's plenty of shows out there with expensive studios and all kinds of fancy stuff in the background happening, you know? Yeah, look at Fox News. I mean, dog, okay? And no content. Well, the content, you have content where you're doing something and you have content where you may or you may not like the personality that's talking to you, but you should be educated at the end of the show. If you're not learning anything by the time the show is over, aside from entertainment, then what good is a serious talk show if you're not walking away learning anything? And we're very informative here. Turn it off. Yeah, no, but aside from that. Same with porn. You don't like it? Turn it off. Turn it off. We're very much against censorship. You will walk away educated with our show. That's all I could tell you. You notice how I carefully, I don't talk too fast, like the other younger or even older, a lot of them are relatively young. All these progressive shows on the internet are coming at it at woodwork and they all sound like they're all hyped up on caffeine, like they've been drinking. They have to fill those minutes really quick. Espresso coffee. Espresso coffee. So they're all like, like a little Yorkshire terrier or Chihuahua yapping and they all bubbly, even sank does that. He talks fast. If you don't do that, people get bored. People's attention span. Attention span is very small. Well, then it doesn't say much. It doesn't say much for today's humanoids. Well, that's why you should not be listening to criticism. You know, I mean, yeah, I think the commercials said like eight seconds. That's about it. But you know what? Fuck you. I'm not going to do a one minute video. Go fuck yourself. You're going to get educated. I don't care if you get annoyed with what I say or not. You need education. You desperately need a guiding light for the 21st century. Well, you can watch the guiding light on television. Oh, stupid soap opera. Soap opera, yeah. Oh, that's a guiding light or a guiding light into stupidity. But anyway, let me get to the theme of the show. Get to the theme. This is now this has to do with so-called quote unquote fake news. That's my first article here. Donald Trump is squawking about fake news. Hillary Clinton now has joined Donald Trump and she's squawking about fake news. Are we being bombarded on mainstream media and on the Internet with fake news? Is the fake news being cleverly blended in with the truth? One of the big fake news stories is the one about the pedophilia involved with Hillary Clinton. Let me finish my statement with my monologue. Are we being, is fake news bombarding us every day in all areas and mixed in with the truth? Possibly. Possibly. Oh, it is. Possibly. Yes, in a sense, it could be happening. But I think the little birdie on my shoulder, the Bernie bird tells me that Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are playing the fake news card because of all the criticism and all the dirt that's been directed towards them. In the case of Hillary Clinton, it's Pizza Gate, it could be a way of distracting Americans and making them think, don't believe these terrible things you're reading and hearing. It's fake news and then Donald Trump gets criticized left and right and he squawks about fake news. It's this, it's that, there lies about me, lies about me. If it's positive, he loves it, he eats it up. But if it's criticism, he's going to play the fake news card and makes you wonder what truly is fake news and what is just the truth that someone else doesn't want to hear, that someone else doesn't want to hear. Is it a raw nerve that is hit that now Bill over here, he loves the Democratic Party and he has this thing with protecting Democrats and Hillary Clinton because she's a woman. Because he's shaking his head as I'm talking. He's a woman. Oh, we got to make history. Oh, you're being a meanie. You're supposed to kiss a woman's ass. We got to have the first female president. We got to have the first black president. Oh, you criticize a black guy in a spotlight. Oh, racism, racism. He's more to the left than I am. I'm realistic. I have no allegiance or loyalty to the two party system or the Democratic Party. He's shaking his head. You know what? It's all yours, brother. I'm done. I'm done with my... If I had the allegiance to the Democratic Party, why did I vote for Jill Stein? Well, why are you shaking your head when James, the great James Neumann, is talking? Because you're forgetting, what about the fake story that came from that university where the woman claimed the woman was rape? That was a non-story. It didn't exist. Did they prove it didn't exist? And it didn't have nothing to do with Trump being Hillary. No, I said at the beginning of my monologue that, yes, I agree there is mass hysteria and mass confusion because of fake news. Yes, there is fake news out there. I didn't deny that there is not fake news. But Trump and her... What they're playing, they also, you know, is it... I don't know if it's a term, the correct term is sour grapes. In other words, if somebody hears something that they don't want, they don't like because it's criticism. But the criticism is founded, is based on facts and it's true. You don't use the word, the popular term, fake news. Now it's in the spotlight, fake news, fake news. You don't play the fake news card if the criticism is accurate. It could also be both. Who's going to make that determination? Trump ain't going to do it. You think that the information that is out there that's negative about Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton is false? But he's going to state that and he's going to try to convince you of that. Well, look, he fights with people on Twitter and he's the president of the United States. He's not the president. I mean, all right. Well, he loves to be petted and stroked and told how wonderful and possibly godlike he really is. How he can get along with people. Yeah, George Soros looks at himself as a god also. And, you know, he likes to hear that. As soon as you criticize him, he goes on a tirade. And he has time to go after individuals on Twitter, which amazes me. For a multi-billionaire who won the election this November. He has time and a guy who had a syndicated, whatever, nationwide or worldwide reality shows and everything. He has time to go after this one girl, this one relatively unknown female, a young girl, and go after and pick on her. He has time for that at three o'clock in the morning. I mean, I don't know. To me, it's like a three-ring circus in the United States. It is a three-ring circus, but we knew this in the beginning. Yeah, tea baggers, the ones who love to blame all your problems on immigrants of color. It's always the people of color that are to blame for your problems. And that's why they went to rallies and got all violent and upset because Trump, yeah, he touched a nerve all right. He brought out the bigoted and racist feelings that were already there within these people. But who caused those problems? The Republicans. Oh, because Republicans... So they weren't not mad at their Republicans, were they? They were mad at the wrong people. Just like Republicans are mad at the poor and they wage war against the poor. That's my point. You're a multi-billionaire. You're a crooked politician that stuffs your pockets. Why should you care if a poor person buys cold-cut seafood and steak with their food stamps? Why should that bother you if social service is only like 2% of the total budget? Why is it such a big frigging deal what a poor person buys with their food stamps? Because if they would not do that and point you to that, they wouldn't be allowed to get their tax cuts. Because they're the biggest moochies. Tax cuts. Yes. They're the biggest moochies. Oh, what do you do? Did you just learn this about the rich? So they're doing the looketh over there. They're doing a big distraction on everyone. They're the ones that are the real freeloaders. Not the poor. That is correct. They have been trying and trying and trying for decades to bring back the Gilded Age. You mean if you didn't have money, you died? That's correct. And business was the king. They could do anything they want. Bring out the National Guard to kill you if you struck. If you knew your history, the people of the Industrial Revolution were absolute vile scumbags. Somebody I knew who was a college professor in Mary Old England was bragging about how wonderful the Industrial Revolution is. That's how it took those humble family-owned farms. And they got an opportunity to make money. Make money. Make money. The people that owned the companies made the money. Not the schmucks that left the family farm to live in the city. They didn't make the money. The business owners, of course, if you're greedy, you're going to love the Industrial Revolution, which started in Manchester, England. Now, before I turn it all over to you, I just want to say the reason why I talk so slow and precisely, like Jesse Ventura does. And incidentally, he don't read from a script. He likes to talk from the heart, ad-lib. And I agree with him. Everyone to be able to understand what I'm saying, even the lowest, simplest, the numbskulls of America and the world. I want everyone to be able to hear, understand, and digest what I'm saying. If I'm like the young turks, I don't know how you, what are you going to learn walking away from that? What are you going to learn? Nothing. Alright, go ahead. Lower the hole. Hold on. Good luck, seven bells for the show. Fight news. There you go. It is not innocuous. It is downright dangerous. On Sunday, a man armed with an assault-style rifle walked into a pizza shop in Washington, D.C. He allegedly wanted to self-investigate a conspiracy theory relating to Hillary Clinton and a child sex freak. Does he qualify to investigate? Yes, he had a... Such a case. He had a rifle in his hand. That qualifies you. Well, yeah, but then you have to gather evidence. They don't have time to gather evidence. Dictators never had time to gather evidence. So he wanted to see that this was going on secretly. He wanted to see it, and then I guess he wanted to shoot the people involved. The story was completely fake. It was fake, yes. But the assault weapon was real. Huh? The story was fake, but the assault weapon was real. Then how the assault weapon did it levitate and go in that building by itself? The story about the sex ring, the paedophilia, Hillary Clinton, the story was fake. Full of shit. The guy comes with a gun. No, no, the story's not fake. The story's not fake. You'll do anything to protect the woman that's running for president. No, no, it ain't fake. It ain't fake. It's fake. It ain't fake. Evelyn Pringle is fake. She proved a lot of things. It's real. So much fake news. It's real. Why the internet? Ever forbid, ever forbid, ever forbid a woman or a minority of the Democratic Party should ever, ever be attacked and criticized. You know, and that includes the Jew Wasserman Schultz that left the DNC. We got to protect them. We got to protect them. Why? Political correctness. Oh, but that's not me. That's maybe other people. But that has nothing to do with these stories. Take my ass. Why do you think we... You don't believe that the international pedophile ring exists. No. You don't believe the secret societies control the world. No. You don't believe the Zionists run the banks, the big banks. No. You don't believe the Rothschilds. No. You don't believe the George Soros. George Soros is an investor. You don't believe in the secret societies and the big banks running the world. No. You don't believe it. You don't believe a handful of these people of the oligarch. You don't believe it. No. Well, that's your choice. That's your choice. You're a big boy. You can believe whatever you want. Exactly. That's why we have snopes and all the other fact checkers. Yeah, snopes that always puts down nutritional supplementation. Oh, yeah. I really put my faith in snopes. I didn't say put faith in it. It's only one place you go to check something. You don't believe that all these missing girls that are missing and end up on the side of a milk cart. You don't believe that they could possibly be kidnapped for a sex ring, for a pedophile sex ring. Absolutely. But what does that have to do with Hillary Clinton? Gotta protect that brother that ran for president. We gotta be over the Clinton dynasty to put political correctness. The lesbians, the gays that love her. Oh, we gotta bet. That's him. I'm not PC. I'm not, I mean... That's not PC. You were jumping the gun. Just like this guy did. You know how many articles about... Just like this guy did. You know how many articles about Pizza Gate? Just like this guy did with a weapon. Oh, God. He jumped the gun. He didn't check out his facts or et cetera. Well, there are other sources that discuss Pizza Gate. Many other sources. Yeah, but they were discussing fake news. No, it ain't fake. What do you think Fox News does every day? It ain't fake. It ain't fake. I believe the establishment is that sleazy. But that's only me. That did not come from the establishment. It's conspiracy theories. That comes from your, you know, your people on the edges of society. Well, I think Alex Jones's info wars says a lot of truth, too. He might be a right-wing libertarian, but... So what? A stop clock is right twice a day. Big deal. Right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You gotta do more fact checking before you, you know... You believe that all this hunky-dory shit with the... No, they do. What do you think they come in? What are they coming from? They're the patriots. They are the protectors of the United States of America, etc. Well, there was an article that was bashing WikiLeaks and Julian Assange saying that he works for the Rothschilds. And it was all set up. Well, who gave those... Well, he did help Donald Trump. He didn't help Bernie Sanders. Who gave WikiLeaks those last emails from Podesta and etc. Who gave them to him? Does he have the day of hackers and informants? The Russians. No. The Russians gave that information. They hacked us. Vladimir Putin cares about his people. Oh, he kept his mouth shut. He didn't say the Russians did it. Okay. Well, all right. Now you got it analyzed. Was the intent of the Russians honorable? Were they doing the right thing for the American people, like Edward Snowden did? I'd say there's a good possibility, yes. I only care about the masses. I don't care about your oligarchs. Well, that wasn't for the masses. It didn't help the masses. Well, it would be nice if Anonymous and WikiLeaks put everything during the primaries when Bernie Sanders was in it. That would have been appropriate for them. Yeah, but they didn't. But they didn't. They waited and they helped Donald Trump seal the deal. Because they had a way to get it from the Russians? From their interests? Yeah, because you believe Barack Obama when he was blaming the Russians and Vladimir Putin was getting all pissed off because he's the black man in the White House. That's why you believe him. It is now proven. It was not proven at the time. He only conjectured it. It is now proven. You sure it was proven? Who said it was proven? Who said it was proven? It's on the news right now. You believe that, the mainstream media? It's on the news. Of course they don't like anything the Russians do. Because you're talking about a bunch of corporatists. Hey, buddy, do you like capitalism or you don't? What is capitalism? Don't give me this shit. We have private meetings sometimes during the week, sometimes. And he's telling me, oh, democratic socialism is really the most fair system. Scandinavia. And then he changes his mind and he sides with the mainstream. Wait a minute, I never said that. What are you trying to fuck with me? You and her, you and her plan, get together. I have said that God's system is the best. Why are you defending the woman? Why are you putting that shit here? Why are you giving them credibility? Because when they get it, they have to get it. You have to be honest. In your goddamn criticism. How do you know who the real good guys and bad guys really are? Sometimes you don't. How do you know? But keep your mouth shut then and do further investigation. But there are people out there that have. Have what? Investigated it all. And what is what I was talking about have to do with democratic socialism? Your boymen are the Russians and you say it in a way we were hacked. That's espionage. Not if you hack evil greedy corporations. It's not espionage. Well, if you do it and you give it to Trump, it is. Well, if you help Trump, you're helping the oligarch. If you're helping... The point is, you can't shoot your mouth off that stuff. If you're going to be a professional journalist you have to investigate. How long did it take what you're going to call it? The two journalists to investigate Watergate? Did they do it right away and come up with these answers? No! It took a long time to take one fact and put it together with others and others. Well, they saw these other issues were being investigated. Pizza gate and... No, they weren't. They were just blasted and supported by the right wing. Who do you think put those fake news up there, that shit? Even Zuckerberg is now going to investigate and find out how they're doing it with the algorithm. Why must people of your generation, baby boomers, right? Why not a baby boomer? Well... Yeah, the Vietnam boomer... I am not a baby boomer. You're a 60's child. 1944! Why must you protect the Democratic Party? I'm not! I voted for Jill Stein! I voted for Jill Stein. You're a Democrat? But you sure are... You sure want to protect the Clintons and Barack Obama's legacy? You are putting labels on things. That's what the problem is. To make it clearer for your thinking. That doesn't do it. There's more work that has to be done behind the scenes to find out the truth. The truth is not given out there on the internet but out there on Fox News and MSNBC and etc. Do you think I like a system where you still... If you vote, if the Democrat gets elected you still have the capitalist oligarch? You think I like that? No, but what does that have to do with what I was talking about? Because you're... I'm talking about fake news! You're like your face when you said that. Russians! That is espionage. That has nothing to do with capitalism. Oh yeah, well now you got this... You got these lovelies that Donald Trump picked, Mad Dog and what... You know what? Just do your readings. Thank you. Do your readings. According to the Washington Post one or more shots were fired by Edgar Madison Welch a 28 year old man from Salisbury, North Carolina No one was injured but the immediate area went on lockdown all because of fake internet and social media stories about pizza gate. Welch was believed to be looking for hidden underground tunnels inside the store. Maybe there was. There is. We didn't find any! Claims that Clinton was a fake Claims that Clinton and her campaign chief were running a child sex ring inside. Comet ping pong! The DC piece of joint were entirely bogus. But once these lies were given life in the digital Petri dish that has become America there has been stopping the story for others equally barzoned. As the Washington Post reported on Monday retired General Michael Flynn who is advising President-elect Donald Trump on national security shared another anti-Clinton fake news story. That one involved pedophilia. The digital age is proving much like the dawn of the atomic age of blessing and a curse. The technology that allows individuals anywhere in the world to reach potentially millions of strangers is an extraordinary achievement. The Arab Spring movement was fueled by social media but the dangers of instant, widespread communication are obvious. When individuals use technology to spew falsehoods to gain a political advantage the collateral damage is wide and indiscriminate. James Alaphantis the owner of Comet ping pong told the Washington Post what happened today demonstrates that promoting false and reckless conspiracy theories comes with consequences. During the nasty 2016 presidential campaign that was also very obvious. Then Republican candidate Trump suggested that U.S. Senator Ted Cruz's father was somehow tied into the assassination of John F Kennedy. I read articles that explained that he wasn't involved in some way. Well good, see one balanced the other and now it's up to you as the journalist to find out the real truth. Well we all know. But if you're getting blasted with the fake news all the time, 24-7 you have no chance to get the balance. I mean we all know his father is an evangelical religious freak. That doesn't mean he had participated in the assassination of John F Kennedy. You can't combine those two issues. Evangelicals are usually deep down evil people. But that doesn't mean that. Well they're not real Christians. Well I don't know, what can I tell you man? What can I tell you? The thing is you owe your audience to be as accurate as you can be. You also have to. So you don't go spewing things before their time? Yeah I know but you have to analyze the source of your information and anything from the mainstream that has corporate sponsors you have to question them also. Sometimes you have to let a story incubate incubate. It's not right yet to tell the law. You must keep your mouth shut. Well the thing with WikiLeaks was really strange because why did it take why did the Ecuadorian embassy had to give Julian Assange safe haven and not the Russian embassy and now there's articles that came out that the USCIA has Julian Assange in custody? How did he get in custody? They have him in their crosshairs. That's where they have him. If Vladimir Putin is protecting Edward Snowden then I'm surprised he hasn't sent his boys in to protect Julian Assange. Why is it Snowden is not in Russia? He's not? Not that I know of. He's somewhere else. He's not in Russia? Are you sure? I'm not sure. I don't know. It seems to me that he's not. Well he's not in the oligarch in his hands, that's for sure. But he left Russia? As far as I know. He left Russia. I don't know where he is. Why would he do that if he had a nice little snug as a bug safe refuge? Maybe he didn't with Putin. All those big tall Russian women over there. No, they're all coming over here. Russian? Why the hell would they want to come here? As brides. Oh, male order brides. Male order brides, yes. Why the fuck would any country desperately want to come here where the cost of living is so high and the salaries are so low? Well, they might believe about the gold streets in America. I guess those are the same people that vote in America. The people that have this delusion of what the United States is about. Trump's explanation was that he had heard others say it. Never saying he knew it to be true. But the saying of it was all that matters. A Google search for fake news sites pulled up 10.5 million results. This is becoming an epidemic of sorts because too many readers are not checking where their news is coming from. There is much talk about bias in the mainstream media. While there are opinions on editorial pages like this particular one the opinions are marked as such and they are not made at a whole plot. There is a difference in an opinion based on facts and a complete fabrication. What happened Sunday is probably just the beginning. In a country where access to weapons is easy social media are prevalent and divisiveness is on the rise. A bad outcome is inevitable. D.C. Police said the assault was armed with an AR-15 assault style rifle. Style rifle. It is not a semi-automatic. Additionally a handgun and a shotgun were seen. I mean a real rifle is the ones at the military. If you are going to get an AK-47 you want the ones that go not the ones that shoot one bullet at a time. Well, the M16 doesn't do that. You can borrow it. M16 doesn't do that. If it's a difference between the actual assault rifle and the one that shoots one bullet at a time semi-automatic versus automatic. Matt Carr, the owner of a shop near the targeted pizza store told the Washington Post his business as well as others have been receiving constant threats. He says this was our first fear. Worst fear. That someone would read all this and come to the block with a gun. Today it happened. Thinking that he's in cahoots with the whole thing. People were lucky Sunday. No one was hurt. At least this time. Well, that's the problem. People go out there half-cocked and the same thing with Planned Parenthood. People believing that a fertilized egg is a real human baby and then they want they commit violent acts towards Planned Parenthood clinics. It's it's craziness. But then again the American voter that showed up at Donald Trump's rally is crazy. The people that think that Hillary Clinton was going to really work for the little guy are crazy also. The person who was going to work for the little guy is Bernie Sanders and then Jill Stein. Jill Stein doesn't have to do what she's doing now. She could stay in Wisconsin wherever she likes and live high in a hog take a nice vacation in the South Pacific and she doesn't have to go through all this. But she's doing it. Now more news that came out claims that Jill Stein's count recount has revealed massive voter fraud on the part of the Hillary Clinton campaign. Now not in Pennsylvania or is it Michigan? She's in Michigan and Wisconsin and there's not I don't think they've even counted the Michigan ones yet and the Wisconsin. Listen but in Pennsylvania they only found 82 more votes for her 82. That wasn't enough. Now Jill Stein is taking that for the whole United States voting system whether it be for the primaries or the major elections is very questionable the whole system sucks. That's great. The system is in suspicion and inefficient too. Unhackable. The computer voting is hackable. Yeah you can't and there should not be voter suppression at all like requiring a citizen to buy a voter ID there should be no gerrymandering it should be one person one vote popular vote that's it period. Well we know who does that aren't we? Well the oligarch has that all rigged. The Republicans do that in the states. Well a pro top 1% people the right which to me is the right wing. But in the states because that's who handles voting the country does not handle voting each state handles its voting procedures. Right. So when the Republicans win the governorship and the House and the assembly of a state that's what they do. Right and they all have the and they all have the same mindset Republicans. They want to they want the middle class to vanish because that's what happens when your country is run with pure capitalism by Republicans the middle class shrinks and thanks to Ronald Reagan the middle class rapidly shrunk and then the poor which they don't want to help die off and alright then where do you find your customers? Well they want to power but they don't wish to govern that is your problem you saw that with the House for how many years with Barack Obama they didn't do nothing but what, vote 80 times to get rid of Obamacare? Now how Donald Trump actually believes that that more massive tax cuts for the rich will stimulate the economy. That is correct. How is that going to it creates jobs according to them? Really? They've been saying that for decades and people have been believing it. Where in the United States? Well you can't prove that can you but they still sell this fake story and when it creates jobs let's just say magically that the jobs are created in the United States which I know is a lie let's say the jobs are created here in the United States and there are Republicans with no regulations or labor laws how much do they expect to pay people? Donald Trump does not like the minimum wage going up? Well then how are you going to be so prosperous and winning so much that you're going to say to Donald Trump please President Trump hold back don't take it anymore, too much winning too much winning too much prosperity how are you going to do that with less than $15 an hour with the cost of living being price gouged I think the cost of living is also a form of price gouging by corporations because you have utility bills not going down right? Not only a price gouging but the government uses the fake fake CPI to give the Americans Social Security raise we, we me I'm on Social Security we got a big huge 0.2% raise this year you know what that amounts to the average Social Security recipient $2 thank you he's spellbound folks No I was thinking about what you said something that was not good for the show professionally a statement you made that you know you don't say on the air I'll tell you all when the cameraman goes to lunch any change of pace tomato paste pace my wife of more than 40 years and I had a mutual parting of the ways five years ago though we went our separate ways we harbor no searing animosity toward one another and we regularly talk in civil and polite tone I don't like this no fault divorce that we have in New Jersey no fault auto insurance I think there's always somebody at fault and the person at fault should be punished okay Mr. Trump no there should be retribution for negative things that a person does that makes it their fault how else would a person learn their lesson if they're not punished there are thousands and tens of thousands of people in jail who never learned they did something wrong in fact they come out even worse well then they should bring back flogging with the cat and nine tails what the hell is that going to do the guy spending 30 years in jail and he's worse if you're a jabroni that causes why is it a no fault insurance why can't the person cause the accident be hammered severely for what he did we do that today or divorce but guess what what if somebody one person is the philanderer and steals his wife's money and does this and smacks her around when he gets drunk he should be punished not no fault of the force well if you punish him and you put him in jail or something of that nature guess what he will never change until he repents he repents he repents what is that going to do he's got jail pain to make people learn pain anyway anyway continue with this my former wife and I was going in the wrong direction oh really but I quickly made an effort to meet a new woman through online dating I was successful in that venture that's nice my ex joined many different clubs and organizations and eventually fell in with a man whose company she enjoys I was happy for her but women I met online told me that this guy continues to occupy a spot in the online dating scene why are they spying on his ex I wonder why messaging women about his availability that I hate people who spy like that what business is it of theirs it is not my business but I'd rather not have her contract than STD because of this guy's secret liaison some of mine is on damn business him and his girlfriends my ex's heart is apt to be broken pretty much either way she issues online dating so she's not apt to discover his habits on her own but I don't want her to die prematurely or to live with an STD she couldn't see coming due to his DC sounds like Angelina Jolie getting the double mastectomy because she has breast cancer in her family and this guy is STD STD she had the brocogene she had the brocogene that doesn't mean she has breast cancer or that she would have gotten it this guy is assuming that his ex-wife is going to get an STD he's assuming it's so much in a way he's trying to protect her well he's being nosy she's a big girl she's a grown woman he's being intrusive it should be easy for you to confirm whether this man is active on dating sites at least the ones you're on and before saying anything to your ex you should confirm this you two were married for 40 years hey is ex could turn around and say why are you spying on my boyfriend and she can get pissed at that you genuinely care about your ex's welfare you also don't know about their relationship or arrangement once you confirm this man's online activity you can say to your ex I just want you to know that Barry is currently active on online dating sites and has messaged women I know I don't want to interfere in your relationship but I thought you would want to know that's it your ex might get mad or you at you or take this news well but what's she going to do before I steal huh interesting change of pace we're going to break for lunch now and you'll hear promo and simply hit the pause button if you see a banner that catches your fancy you want to read learn more about it always hit the pause button I said we'll see the balance of the show we'll see if it is second half of the show hey the person who mentions that I get up all the time first of all I don't get up all the time oh my god second of all go fuck yourself whoever it is tells William H. Morrill the third that why does he get up all the time and it's not professional well you don't go fuck yourself whoever you are I don't know who you are somebody because Bill Morrill doesn't go online so somebody who's scrutinizing the show that is anxious to criticize it is telling William Morrill that James gets up a lot during the show and it doesn't look right well go fuck yourself I don't know who you are but even if I know you go fuck yourself James P. Madonna of Megalife21 Hard Hitting Podcasts Holistic Health Talk and Progressive Discussions I want to talk about the very foundation of our entire organization the newsletter that was founded by my co-host and mentor the Reverend Dr. William J.

Censored that's www.newslettercensored.com okay we're back seven bells for the second half of the show progressive discussions you have your device yes my spectacles are you okay how was your dessert by the way very good that was the last of the pumpkin pie oh is that what that was yes the last of the pumpkin pie yeah my sister makes a great pumpkin pie sugar free I gotta get oh she said she told me I have to get the ingredients that means I gotta go into a supermarket where there's the only way I can get all the ingredients is if I go to the supermarket that tends to be a little crowded and I hate I hate crowds and it seems to me that they're being crowded a lot these days more crowded might be because of the holidays or something but I know about the mornings but the afternoons and night times they're crowded no I don't I don't do crowds so I don't do crowds I like shopping online and uh I go to all these you know which has a lot of organic foods and the prices are reasonable and it's not that crowded unfortunately they don't have that many cashiers and there's long lines by the cash register that's what I'm saying you have to bring your own bag which is no problem because I have my collection of real strong bags in the car I'm not paying for any of all these bags there's no freaking way no if only the good guy young Americans are unfortunately getting better U.S. life expectancy dipped by about a month last year from 2014 to 78.8 years according to a report from the National Center for Health Statistics especially the impoverished areas of the United States like West Virginia Kentucky Mississippi where the life expectancy is way down it's the first decline in more than two decades after years of gains U.S. life expectancy has been essentially flat for a few years which means an on auspicious trend could be in the works the decline could be a blip but even if it's flat we have a real problem said Jonathan Skinner a professor at the Darkmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice I know heroin addiction made a huge comeback Skinner noted that the U.S. is spending 18% of GDP on health care if we're not getting continued improvement in life expectancy then perhaps we should redirect some of that toward raising workers take home pay and improving educational opportunities gender matters for men life expectancy fell to 76.3 years from 76.5 years take home pay from some employer does not work that's why countries like Canada Scandinavia have a basic universal salary for women life expectancy decreased from 31.2 years down about 0.1 year from 2014 this is your average your average woman not a woman who works out eats supplements organic foods average woman life expectancy the culprits for our declining years increases in mortality from heart disease chronic lower respiratory diseases on intentional injuries stroke Alzheimer's diabetes kidney disease and suicide not surprisingly that group plus cancer and the flu make up the top 10 causes of death in the United States my major concern is that we know the exact cause of the fall in life expectancy mortality is rising across a wide variety of illnesses skinner set okay let me read this one first before I go on to a change of pace another change of pace we got a couple of them here we gotta we gotta get more nothing more than human interest stories blood curdling we gotta get more blood curdling don't forget we got we got young Turks we got all these other people we gotta buck heads with well you shouldn't keep thinking like that that is competition competition is of the devil you give out what you have they give out what they have people accept either yours or theirs or both simple as that but competition makes one a winner and one a loser well somebody's gotta lose why? do they lose in those Norwegian countries that you talk about? you think it's like that stupid Special Olympics we're all winners just to make the kids feel good about themselves but they're disabled anybody, it could be in school it could be kids but what if they aren't matched in that particular whatever they're doing fair, you gotta match well then you can't have disabled running against normals can you? well of course they'll lose every time you can't exactly so you know it's not what I mean is what I mean is a loser the word lose and losing nowadays has been really demonized like in other words people should realize it's part of life that if one person will excel and other people will get less points that's just part of life and the person who did not excel that particular time can excel another time unless you're a politician and you have the electoral college and delegates watch the chess championships since the the 80s and you'll see the crown changed so many times only in golf golf and dominoes does the person with less win less points golf and dominoes repealing president Barack Obama's health care law without a replacement risks making nearly 30 million people uninsured and that's besides the people that are still uninsured exactly separately a professional group representing benefit advisors warned congressional leaders of the risk of significant market disruption that could cause millions of Americans to lose their health insurance republicans dismiss such dire scenarios saying that they are working on a replacement legislation for a president donald trump to sign yeah don't hold your breath nonetheless the complex two-stage strategy the GOP congress is contemplating has raised concerns not only among supporters of the law but also industries like hospitals and insurers the plan is for congress to first use a special budget related procedure to repeal major portions of obama care the effective date of that repeal would be delayed by months or even years to give lawmakers time to write replacement legislation shouldn't they have had replacement education in the pipeline by now now they're too busy worried about whether to pork and buy coax and steak with their food stamps they should have a lot of things on the back burner making their way to the front burner if indeed that is what they want to do because I can tell you right off the top of my head the republicans do not wish to replace obama care with anything in other words if you're not rolling in dough enough to buy your own health insurance from a private company then you perish but they don't want to come out and say that exactly so then hold on so then americans shot themselves in both feet as always during the election they asked for it they wanted it, they got it the replacement law would presumably do many the same things that the obama caretards right now subsidizing coverage and protecting people with health problems but it would not involve as much federal regulation it would eliminate a highly unpopular requirement that most americans get health insurance or face fines the new study from the nonpartisan urban institute looks at a scenario where repeal goes through but replace stalls it predicts any collateral damage for people buying individual health insurance independent of government markets like healthcare.good though nonpartisan the urban institute generally supports the goal of extending coverage to all americans previously it had criticized some of the subsidies provided under obama's law as insufficient the new analysis warns that repealing major parts of the health law without a clear replacement could upend the health insurance market for people buying their coverage directly outside of the workplace that group has grown substantially under the health care law but also includes millions of other customers the study found that 22.5 million people would lose coverage directly because of a repeat of the law's subsidies Medicaid expansion and its individual requirement to carry health insurance an additional 7.3 million would become uninsured because of the ripple effects of market upheavals capitalism does not work for anyone except the rich period because it only works for those who have money capital because of course if you have money then you don't need any help ever from the government at one time the only help that was available was from your local church good luck with that didn't work during the Great Depression local church didn't work weren't enough how could it how could there be enough with the churches what do you call them when you pick up the food the food banks food pantries food pantries etc there's not enough there's not enough there never will be enough especially with the growing poverty the growing poverty how many turkeys do they give out every Thanksgiving at Christmas from these places and when politicians during a holiday donate their time for a photo op how long do you think they really stay there and dish out turkey and stuffing and sweet potatoes like 20 minutes 15 minutes if that long as soon as the cameras get them doing that they're out of there and then everybody goes oh he or she really cares oh now usually we we read Dear Amy or Dear Abby tell me there's a new one yeah, Carolyn oh no does this mean we're going to have more of these changes of pace then we'll have to do a different show called change of pace this might be out of a different paper oh well if it's a good one I mean if it's a good one with societal connections to today's society and to current human issues of today it's talking about sex so there you go of course let's talk about sex baby let's talk about you and me salt and pepper should I be worried that my wife and I have had no sex for years huh yikes I am guessing it is at least three years yikes not even heavy make out sessions heavy make out sessions it just seems that my wife has no interest oh he has interest and she keeps on turning him away they waited this long to seek help I am afraid to broach the subject for fear of a negative answer well she's supposed to give out the bourgeois man in the conjugal duties the bourgeois we don't even sleep in the same bed anymore and they're like roommates I am a big snorer and chose to sleep in the guest room well he won't snore during sex it's fine because she is a light sleeper and I am happier that she is getting her sleep she's a light sleeper, she sleeps with the lighter I do use a CPAP but it does come off sometimes we're about a close pin oh that would stop him from breathing well if you don't breathe you don't snore that's true we also don't wake up oh the no sex thing has just happened over time we have both gained some weight but we're not obese we could both lose about 20 or 30 pounds oh they're fat nobody wants to see two fat people have sex is this normal or should we seek help should I be worried that you've waited three years to ask permission to worry the fat went to their brains they let three years go by what's normal in a marriage is less important than what is mutual if you're worried then yes you should be if you're not worried then you should not be by that measure the cause for concern at home is that you and your wife are not talking or touching I used to tell the women during the Victorian era to just lie there and think of England something like that talking and sex are a fickle combination though with couples just as often cooled off by it it has warmed up if you tend to be the former then try this first introduce more fun physical but not sexual activity do your lives together as it stands now you're not touching you're not touching putting on weight this is about more than sex now it's about losing your connection to your own bodies well they don't care about their bodies that's why they have 30 pounds of flap they got to be more they should work together to be more attractive to one another by doing physical activities together and changing their eating habits as they lose weight and get in shape they'll become more attractive and they might rekindle what they once had using your body is the best way to wake it up and not coincidentally movement is a known emotional conductor so take her hand take her hand and what put it by your crutch if this doesn't heat up your married then it's time to talk explicitly it's time to lose that ugly flap fat bastard you let's talk about sex baby let's talk about you and me let's talk about all the things that do do do do do all right let's talk about sex all right let me check the time check the time we got time for one a good one I mean a humdinger look for a humdinger not a change of pace but a humdinger of a dinger all right let's try this guy thank you it stopped for the humdinger for the last humdinger of the week okay beautiful let's talk about sex a new 89 dollar test claims to calculate the age of the dna in yourselves and tell you how well you were aging gotta love science man like George Costanza says gotta love it can't stop science the test called tell all years is the newest in a bunch of mail order kits that measure the length of your telomeres wow the caps that cover the ends of your chromosomes no I wonder if telomeres can be lengthened yes with resveratrol transversal and carnazine el carnazine not carnitine carnazine telomeres are often described as the biological equivalent of the plastic caps at the ends of shoestrings which prevent threads from fraying yeah or you could excuse me I believe they are called aiglet aiglet aiglet aiglet something like that made of dna and protein the telomeres protect chromosomes from damage and from sticking to one another as we age our telomeres shorten that's because every time a cell divides and dna replicates a chunk of telomere disappears I'm sure free free radical damage is part of that when the telomeres in a cell become too short the cell stops dividing and may die without the replacement companies selling telomere tests say that studies show shortened telomeres are a risk factor for illness while telomere length can be linked to aging experts say their discovery is relatively recent and not enough is known to interpret these results of course not enough is known not enough is known many studies of telomere length were small trials some large studies have been done but most did not show a direct cause and effect blink between illness and telomere length some genetic diseases including types of anemia as well as skin and lung disorders are caused by a defect in telomerase the enzyme that makes telomeres but these are rare and they are inherited telo years made by silicon valley based telomere diagnostics ink works by analyzing a drop of blood that a user mails in from home using the same kind of tool diabetics use to check their blood sugar interesting something that minute the length of the user's telomeres is compared with people in other age groups to give their age in telo years but the length of telomeres varies widely even among people in the same age group that means these tests can be unreliable indicators of aging another telomere test made by titanova ink in north carolina is priced at 150 bucks and uses saliva instead of blood wow short telomeres are markers for the early onset of age related diseases the titanova website says the company also shares on verified results on its site saying while it's a bit early to publish any findings in a journal I'd like to disclose some observations and key thoughts that I am starting to believe the employee goes on to say that people eating plant based diets have longer telomeres interesting vegans interesting telomere a diagnostic was an offshoot of an earlier company co-founded by Elizabeth Blackburn one of three scientists awarded a Nobel Prize in 1999 for the discovery of how telomeres protect chromosomes Blackburn parted ways with the organization with telomere diagnostics most companies selling telomere tests say they do not diagnose diseases or predict the likelihood of illness by repeating tests they say users can see how their telomeres are shortening over time and make lifestyle changes to slow life that could encourage test users to eat a healthier diet take more exercise but what telomere tests tell us about the lifespan of a cell may not translate to the lifespan of an individual most experts say it is too soon to make sense of these results well, it's a start I just want to tell you the Reverend Dr. William J. Isman at Swanson Vitamins now has a 600 milligram grapeseed extract capsule standardized to contain 95% agliomeric proanthocyanidins that's my favorite antioxidant one of my favorite supplements I'm taking the 200 milligram this one is 600 milligram at 95% so I just want to tell everyone that they can get maximum antioxidant protection and it's only getting better with time it's a polyphenol polyphenol it's related to the bioflavonoids and it occurs in the pigmentation of food of different plants usually deep colored or brightly colored plants contain the polyphenols the richest supply you were telling me resveratrol which is found in the skin of deep or brightly colored fruits like grapeseed originally it was found in the skin until they discovered that it was cheaper to get it from knotweed which is popular in Asia they used to want you to get it from wine wine but it's in the pigmentation the pigmentation of the skin of the red grape or one of my favorites the concord grape unfortunately the only concord grape wine out there is sweetened I don't know why what about welches welches grape juice pasteurized oh yeah there you go you know but usually the deeper the color the deeper the color the more value caratines are also found in the pigmentation natural beta alpha caratine there's a whole bunch of caratines but anyway we'll see you next time discussions take care of yourself exercise safely eat healthy and we'll see you next time you know all that wise advice don't drink and drive, don't smoke blah blah blah blah alright we'll see you
