## About this episode

Thomas Woods joins the program to advocate for state-level nullification of federal laws as a constitutional remedy for government overreach. The Tenth Amendment serves as the primary defense against mandates like the Real ID Act and healthcare legislation, echoing historical precedents where states resisted the Fugitive Slave Acts. Woods argues that the Supremacy Clause only applies to federal laws enacted in pursuance of the Constitution, suggesting that the current erosion of states' rights mirrors historical consolidations of power seen in 20th-century Europe.

In the wake of the Deepwater Horizon disaster, Kenneth Feinberg and his law firm are receiving $850,000 monthly from BP to manage the Gulf Coast Claims Facility, creating a significant conflict of interest for the administrator of the $20 billion fund. Meanwhile, the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation is conducting roadside surveys in Arizona using intelligence-style terminology, which may signal a shift toward high-margin disposable mouth swab technology for law enforcement. In Pakistan, senior diplomats are accusing the Obama administration of inflating terror alerts to influence regional geopolitics, while a massive alkaline sludge spill from a Hungarian aluminum plant reaches the Danube River.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak celebrate the binary alignment of October 10, 2010, by knighting new executive producers Zen Garden and Zachary Giesemann. The duo uncovers a CDC campaign paying Twitter Moms to promote flu vaccines and mocks a CNBC analyst for an accidental profanity-laced slip regarding Chinese shipping commerce. The broadcast concludes with a look at the Stuxnet virus and its mysterious Hebrew code artifacts.

A new legislative proposal in Texas aims to create a "Driving While Ability Impaired" (DWAI) category for blood alcohol levels as low as 0.05.
