While the 16-page manifesto alleges systemic racism, skepticism remains regarding specific pro-gun-control passages that appear out of character for the fugitive. The search continues as the public debates whether Dorner is hiding in the mountains or in plain sight within the city. In the financial sector, UBS is reclassifying conservative bond clients as aggressive investors to shield the bank from liability during a predicted Bondpocalypse. Meanwhile, Special Inspector General Christie Romero reports that over 120 individuals have been criminally charged under SIGTARP, debunking the media meme that no bankers have faced prosecution since the 2008 crisis. In Washington, journalist Chris Hedges challenges Section 1021 of the NDAA in court, warning that the law allows for the indefinite detention of American citizens and journalists who interview groups on the State Department's terrorism list. Additional scrutiny falls on the Benghazi investigation as General Martin Dempsey and Hillary Clinton face questions regarding the lack of military support during the seven-hour assault on the CIA annex. This episode features a knighting ceremony for Dame Heidi of Bulgaria and a look at the Third International Hollywoodism Conference in Tehran attended by William Rodriguez. The hosts also explore the social etiquette of urinating in the shower and the bizarre discovery that TSA agents at Bay Area airports will accept a Costco card as a valid form of identification. Producers David Foley and Thomas Pouillard provide the value for value support to keep the stream running. ## Chapters Each chapter's transcript is at its own link.
