## About this episode

Secretary of State Antony Blinken claims Vladimir Putin has failed in his strategic goal to erase Ukraine from the map, despite tactical Russian gains in the Luhansk region. The G7 nations responded to the ongoing conflict by announcing a ban on Russian gold imports, while state media in Moscow broadcasted threats to bomb the harbor in Rotterdam to cripple European Union logistics. Meanwhile, NATO formally invited Finland and Sweden to join the alliance after Turkey dropped its opposition in exchange for concessions regarding Kurdish groups.

French President Emmanuel Macron was caught on a hot mic informing President Joe Biden that Saudi Arabia cannot significantly increase oil production for at least six months, complicating the administration's energy strategy. In the United States, Cassidy Hutchinson provided explosive testimony to the January 6th Committee, alleging Donald Trump attempted to physically commandeer the presidential limousine. Simultaneously, the Supreme Court issued landmark rulings limiting the EPA's authority to regulate carbon emissions and protecting the right of a high school coach to pray on the field. In the Netherlands, massive farmer protests have erupted against nitrogen limits that threaten to close half of the country's farms.

Vice President Kamala Harris adopted what listeners are calling a "Candanavian" accent during recent interviews, mirroring the cadence of Justin Trudeau. The program also examines the mysterious death of former Senate Sergeant-at-Arms Michael Stenger and the accidental leak of every concealed carry permit holder's data by the California Attorney General. This broadcast marks a transition toward the show's 1500th episode as the value-for-value model continues to fund independent media.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken asserts that Vladimir Putin has already failed in his strategic objective to erase Ukraine from the map.

### 3. G7 Russian Gold Ban, Ruble Strength, Energy Profits (9:21–12:27)

The G7 nations announced a new ban on Russian gold imports as part of ongoing financial sanctions. Despite Western efforts to devastate the Russian economy, the ruble has reached its highest value in years due to Russia demanding energy payments in its own currency. Critics argue that high oil prices are allowing Russia to generate record profits while export controls only delay the modernization of their defense and technology sectors.

### 4. Rotterdam Bombing Threats, Russian TV Rhetoric, Gold in Electronics (12:28–14:12)

Russian state media has reportedly broadcasted threats to bomb the harbor in Rotterdam, Netherlands, to cripple European Union imports. The discussion also covers the industrial importance of gold in semiconductors and circuit boards, suggesting that banning Russian gold may inadvertently drive up global prices. Personal anecdotes from the region suggest a mix of local concern and skepticism regarding the severity of Russian military rhetoric.

Antony Blinken reports a significant brain drain from Russia, claiming 200,000 educated professionals have fled the country since the invasion began. The departure of international companies like McDonald's is cited as a factor in the declining Russian standard of living. Skepticism is raised regarding the effectiveness of Western weapons like Javelin missiles and the extent of U.S. involvement in managing Ukrainian military supply chains.

### 6. Boris Johnson, Toxic Masculinity, Putin Gender Comments (15:36–17:47)

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson claimed that Vladimir Putin would not have invaded Ukraine if he were a woman, labeling the war a "perfect example of toxic masculinity." The hosts analyze Johnson's phrasing and suggest his comments were a form of virtue signaling intended for a domestic audience. The segment notes a verbal slip where Johnson appeared to almost use the word "rape" before correcting himself to "invasion."

### 7. G7 Global Infrastructure Plan, Pecs Comparison (17:47–18:35)

The G7 leaders rolled out a $200 billion global infrastructure plan focused on sustainable development, health security, and climate energy. During the summit, Boris Johnson joked that the leaders should take off their jackets to show off their pecs to appear tougher than Vladimir Putin. The hosts dismiss the light-hearted moment as a distraction from more serious geopolitical shifts.

### 8. NATO Expansion, Finland and Sweden, China Strategy (18:36–22:21)

NATO has formally invited Finland and Sweden to join the alliance after Turkey dropped its opposition in exchange for concessions regarding Kurdish groups. For the first time in a decade, NATO's strategy brief will explicitly cite China as a growing threat to global security. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan emphasized that while NATO is increasing high-alert forces to 300,000, competition with China does not necessarily mean confrontation.

### 9. Macron and Biden Hot Mic, Saudi Oil Production (22:22–23:17)

A hot mic captured French President Emmanuel Macron informing President Joe Biden that Saudi Arabia cannot significantly increase oil production for at least six months. This revelation complicates Biden's planned trip to Saudi Arabia, which is already facing criticism from his political base over the killing of Jamal Khashoggi. The hosts suggest the trip may be canceled or rendered ineffective by the lack of available oil supply.

### 10. Turkey Name Change, NATO to TikTok Pipeline (23:18–24:17)

The nation of Turkey is officially rebranding its name to "Türkiye" to eliminate the English association with the bird and increase brand value. Additionally, reports indicate a growing "pipeline" of former NATO employees moving into influential roles at TikTok. The hosts note TikTok's massive influence on the music industry and the pressure it exerts on established celebrities to join the platform.

### 11. Biden Approval Ratings, Gavin Newsom Florida Ads (24:18–26:49)

An Associated Press poll finds deep pessimism among Americans, with 80% of Democrats believing the country is headed in the wrong direction. Amidst President Biden's low approval ratings, California Governor Gavin Newsom has purchased over $100,000 in ad time in Florida to criticize Governor Ron DeSantis. This move is interpreted as Newsom positioning himself for a potential 2024 presidential run.

### 12. Trump Primary Endorsements, Media Bias (26:51–27:47)

Former President Donald Trump saw a 12-for-12 success rate for his endorsed candidates in recent GOP primaries. The hosts argue that this significant demonstration of political influence is being ignored by mainstream media in favor of negative coverage regarding the January 6th hearings. They contend that the media's primary goal is to marginalize Trump's influence.

### 13. Cassidy Hutchinson Testimony, January 6th Surprise Hearing (27:48–34:05)

Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Mark Meadows, provided explosive testimony during a surprise January 6th Committee hearing. She alleged that Donald Trump knew supporters were armed and attempted to physically commandeer his presidential vehicle to go to the Capitol. The hosts critique the NPR coverage of the event, describing it as "true crime" style storytelling and questioning the validity of the hearsay evidence presented.

### 14. Shaye Moss Testimony, Fulton County Election Trauma (34:06–36:40)

Former Fulton County election worker Shaye Moss testified about the severe personal toll and trauma she experienced following the 2020 election. She described how her life was "turned upside down," leading to social isolation and significant weight gain. The hosts question the specific nature of the pressure put on her and criticize the committee for putting a traumatized individual in the public spotlight for "color" rather than facts.

### 15. Pat Cipollone, Justice Department Pressure, Performative Testimony (36:41–39:09)

The January 6th Committee highlighted concerns from White House Counsel Pat Cipollone regarding potential criminal offenses by administration officials. Testimony suggested that Donald Trump pressured the Justice Department to declare the election corrupt and "leave the rest to me." The hosts characterize the testimony as performative and heavily reliant on "essentially" phrased hearsay rather than direct evidence.

### 16. The Beast Limo Incident, Secret Service Chokehold Claims (39:09–42:45)

Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony included a vivid account of Donald Trump allegedly lunging for the steering wheel of "The Beast" and grabbing at a Secret Service agent's throat. The hosts debate the physical possibility of such an act within the armored presidential limousine and note that the story is based on second-hand accounts from Tony Ornato. They suggest the narrative is being crafted for maximum visual and dramatic impact despite being unproven.

### 17. Clavicle Coaching, Legal Significance of Chokeholds (42:45–47:03)

The hosts focus on Hutchinson's specific use of the word "clavicle" when describing Trump's alleged physical altercation with the Secret Service. They speculate that the use of such specific anatomical terminology suggests the witness was coached by lawyers or committee members. They question why a person would not use more common terms like "throat" or "neck" unless there was a specific legal strategy involved.

### 18. Michael Stenger Death, Senate Sergeant-at-Arms (47:04–48:46)

Michael Stenger, the former Senate Sergeant-at-Arms during the January 6th riot, passed away at age 71 just before he was expected to provide more testimony. The hosts find the lack of public fanfare or official tributes for such a high-ranking official suspicious compared to the treatment of other Capitol figures. They note Stenger had previously mentioned the presence of "professional agitators" at the Capitol.

Whispers of a 2024 presidential run by Hillary Clinton are resurfacing as President Biden's political standing weakens. Meanwhile, former Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum has been indicted for wire fraud, which the hosts suggest is a move to clear the field for other candidates. They also critique Clinton's physical readiness for a campaign, comparing her to an "out of shape" athlete.

### 20. Michelle Obama President Slip, Corporate Abortion Support (51:08–53:43)

A news clip from CBS's Norah O'Donnell mistakenly referred to Michelle Obama as a "president past and present" while discussing reactions to the Roe v. Wade reversal. Major corporations like Disney, Microsoft, and Paramount Global have announced they will cover travel expenses for employees seeking abortions. The hosts speculate on the political maneuvering between Gavin Newsom and Ron DeSantis, whom they believe has deep ties to the intelligence community.

### 21. Thomas Drake, FBI Warnings, Trusted Workforce 2.0 (53:44–59:27)

Former NSA whistleblower Thomas Drake warns against speaking to the FBI without a lawyer, recounting how his own truthful statements were used to frame him for obstruction of justice. The discussion transitions to "Trusted Workforce 2.0," a new Department of Homeland Security initiative for continuous, real-time vetting of all employees and contractors. This reform is described as a method for the government to maintain total control over its workforce through constant surveillance.

### 22. Ron DeSantis Spooky Background, Vaccine Mandates (59:28–1:01:58)

The hosts examine Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's background, noting his education at Yale and his service as an advisor to SEAL Team 1. They characterize his resume as having the "earmarks of a spook" and suggest he may be the preferred candidate of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). Despite these concerns, they express support for his opposition to vaccine mandates as a primary voting issue.

### 23. WHO International Health Regulations, Emergency Powers History (1:02:00–1:06:02)

A review of health laws reveals a long-term expansion of emergency powers dating back to 2001, including the Model State Emergency Health Powers Act (MSEHPA). The hosts trace the erosion of civil liberties through the SARS outbreak, the 2005 PREP Act, and 2017 revisions to public health laws under the Trump administration. These changes allow the World Health Organization and federal agencies to bypass congressional review during declared emergencies.

Dr. Peter McCullough testified before the Texas Senate, citing a call from the World Council for Health for a global recall of COVID-19 vaccines due to safety concerns. McCullough pointed to data showing that 79% of people with Omicron were fully vaccinated as evidence of vaccine failure. The hosts discuss the "futility" felt by highly credentialed experts like McCullough whose messages are largely ignored by mainstream institutions.

Data from several countries, including Taiwan (23.2% decline), Germany (13%), and the UK (7.7%), show a significant drop in birth rates. The hosts revisit the "unvaccinated sperm is the new Bitcoin" meme, suggesting that concerns over reproductive health and vaccine stability are becoming more mainstream. They link these statistics to broader concerns about the long-term effects of the global vaccination campaign.

### 27. Roe v. Wade Reaction, TikTok Wokester Rant (1:12:18–1:17:06)

The hosts play a viral, profanity-laced TikTok video of a woman reacting to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. The speaker in the video attacks Justices Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, claiming the decision is a "war on women" that will disproportionately affect poor and minority communities. The hosts use the clip to illustrate the "deep de-programming" and emotional intensity surrounding the ruling.

### 28. Kamala Harris Abortion Claims, HHS Transportation Plans (1:17:07–1:21:18)

Vice President Kamala Harris claimed the Supreme Court took away a "constitutional right" from American women, a statement the hosts label as a lie. Meanwhile, HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra is exploring "aggressive" options to support abortion access, including using federal funds for transportation to other states. Becerra appeared cagey when questioned about the legality of these actions during recorded remarks.

### 29. Clarence Thomas Grievance, Hillary Clinton Critique (1:21:20–1:23:14)

Hillary Clinton criticized Justice Clarence Thomas during an interview with Gayle King, describing him as a person of "resentment, grievance, and anger" since law school.

The Supreme Court issued several landmark rulings, including protecting a high school coach's right to pray on the field and limiting the EPA's power to regulate carbon emissions without explicit Congressional authority. The hosts celebrate these decisions as a strike against "administrative law" and the "unaccountable" power of federal agencies. They also discuss Trump's "Schedule F" executive order, which aimed to make it easier to fire career civil servants.

The hosts analyze Vice President Kamala Harris's speaking style during an NPR interview, comparing her cadence and "up-talking" to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. They jokingly refer to her as having a "Candanavian" accent, noting she spent part of her youth in Montreal. They argue that this "slow way of explaining stupid stuff" makes her unappealing to the American electorate.

### 38. Sponsor segment: Taco Bell Cheez-It Ad, Yahoo Finance Native Advertising (2:03:22–2:08:12)

A "native ad" disguised as a news segment on Yahoo Finance promotes a collaboration between Taco Bell and Cheez-It. The ad features a giant Cheez-It cracker used in Tostadas and Crunchwraps, currently being tested in California. The hosts mock the "news" anchors for their enthusiastic coverage of fast food and speculate that the segment was a paid "minute buy" that the anchors extended for free.

### 39. Local Newspaper Decline, News Deserts (2:08:12–2:09:00)

A new report indicates that an average of two local newspapers go out of business every week in the United States. This trend has left 70 million Americans living in "news deserts" with little to no local news organization coverage. The hosts suggest that while official journalism is declining, unofficial local reporting continues to exist.

### 40. Dutch Farmer Protests, Nitrogen Limits, Tube Top Tangent (2:09:01–2:11:32)

Dutch farmers are staging massive protests against government mandates to cut nitrogen emissions, which could force 50% of farms to close. Farmers have used tractors to block police stations and highways, leading to confrontations in The Hague. The hosts transition into a tangent about 1970s fashion, specifically the potential return of "tube tops" as an exit strategy from modern cultural tensions.

### 41. EU Carbon Emission Ban, Electric Vehicle Mandates (2:11:32–2:13:25)

The European Union has signed an agreement to eliminate carbon emissions from new cars by 2035. The hosts question the feasibility of this mandate, citing the slow charging times and the massive infrastructure required for electric vehicles. They note that even in Texas, charging stations are being built every 50 miles, but express concern over the loss of freedom associated with a state-controlled power grid.

### 42. Greek Lignite Coal, Energy Crisis Irony (2:13:26–2:15:04)

In response to the natural gas shortage caused by the war in Ukraine, Greece is increasing its production of "lignite," a low-quality, highly polluting brown coal. The hosts point out the irony of the EU allowing the use of the "dirtiest of the dirty" fuels while simultaneously pushing for aggressive green energy mandates. This shift represents a significant setback for Greece's previous plans to phase out coal.

### 44. Moon Rocket Crash Mystery, Space War Speculation (2:17:05–2:19:01)

A mysterious rocket crashed on the moon in March, leaving two distinct craters and baffling scientists. No country has claimed responsibility for the object, leading to speculation about "space wars" and secret military infrastructure. The hosts criticize the lack of high-resolution imagery available to the public, questioning why modern satellite technology cannot provide clearer details of the lunar surface.

### 45. Starlink Satellite Internet Review, Bandwidth Allocation (2:19:03–2:21:21)

A host shares a personal review of Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet, noting that while the download speeds are functional for streaming on Roku, the latency (ping) makes it difficult for real-time communication. The review highlights "tricks" used by the service, such as progressive download bandwidth allocation and caching. Despite a full second round-trip delay, the service is described as a phenomenal backup solution for those without fixed-line access.

### 46. Ghislaine Maxwell Sentencing, R. Kelly Comparison (2:21:21–2:23:33)

Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for her role in Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring. The hosts compare her sentence to the 30 years given to singer R. Kelly, questioning the disparity given the scale of Maxwell's alleged crimes. They also note that Epstein left Maxwell $10 million in his will, which influenced the judge's decision to impose a $750,000 fine.

### 47. Lev Parnas Sentencing, Rudy Giuliani Smear (2:23:35–2:25:49)

Lev Parnas, a former associate of Rudy Giuliani, was sentenced to 20 months in prison for campaign finance crimes and wire fraud. NPR's coverage emphasized Parnas's role in digging up "dirt" on Hunter Biden in Ukraine, though the criminal case was technically unrelated to that work. The hosts argue the media is using the sentencing primarily to tarnish the reputations of Giuliani and Donald Trump.

Unilever has announced a workaround to continue selling Ben & Jerry's ice cream in the West Bank by selling the business interests to an Israeli manufacturer. This follows a year of controversy and divestment by several U.S. states after Ben & Jerry's attempted to boycott the region. The hosts view this as a failure of "ESG" (Environmental, Social, and Governance) activism and a victory for Israeli officials.

The House has passed the "Racial and Economic Equity Act," a bill sponsored by Maxine Waters that would amend the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. The bill seeks to expand the Fed's mandate to include the elimination of racial and ethnic disparities in employment, income, and credit access. Critics argue this would saddle the central bank with social justice responsibilities, potentially setting the stage for a central bank digital currency.

### 53. ISO Search, Ridonculous vs. Wreaked Havoc (2:43:38–2:45:16)

The hosts search for a new "ISO" (isolated audio clip) to use in the show's production. They debate between a clip of someone saying "ridonculous"—attributed to Rachel Maddow—and a clip about "wreaking havoc on the industry." They ultimately settle on "ridonculous" despite finding it "shitty" and "worthless," noting that show production quality is often cyclical.

An Australian ambassador for women claimed that the climate crisis exacerbates the risk of sexual and gender-based violence, particularly for indigenous girls. The hosts mock the statement, questioning the logical link between rising temperatures and increased rates of sexual assault. They view the rhetoric as an example of intersecting forms of "discrimination" narratives being forced into the climate discussion.
