### "Momentum" Supercut, Democratic Party Media Messaging

- **Episode:** [1686: Publical](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1686-publical.md)
- **Published:** 2024-08-15
- **Time:** 28:46–31:52
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1686-publical/chapter/momentum-supercut-democratic-party-media-messaging.md

A supercut of various news broadcasts reveals a repetitive use of the word "momentum" to describe Kamala Harris's standing in recent political polls. The synchronized messaging across multiple networks suggests a unified effort to frame the race as a surge for the Democratic ticket. Analysts note that this linguistic trend often precedes significant shifts in campaign advertising spend.

The IfNotNow movement, which organizes pro-Palestinian protests, is identified as being funded through ActBlue and trained by the Momentum Organizing Community. An analysis of the organization's staff reveals a focus on identity politics, including Marxism and "Afrofuturism," while operating on what they describe as "occupied lands."

### Earthquake Measurement, Richter Scale vs Momentum Scale

- **Episode:** [1535: Podspeeding](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1535-podspeeding.md)
- **Published:** 2023-03-05
- **Time:** 1:31:39–1:33:10
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1535-podspeeding/chapter/earthquake-measurement-richter-scale-vs-momentum-scale.md

A correction is addressed regarding the measurement of earthquakes. The hosts clarify that while the Richter scale is often cited in media, the momentum scale is the current scientific standard, though they suggest the change in scales may be used to make seismic events sound more severe.

### Momentum Movement, Grassroots Organizing and Labour Strategy

- **Episode:** [1199: Slackified](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1199-slackified.md)
- **Published:** 2019-12-19
- **Time:** 20:57–23:44
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1199-slackified/chapter/momentum-movement-grassroots-organizing-and-labour-strategy.md

The Momentum movement is identified as a key factor in the Labour Party's recent electoral failure. Critics argue that the group's focus on left-wing activism and identity politics alienated traditional voters. The segment explores how the party's internal rules allowed activists to gain significant influence over the leadership and policy agenda.

### Donald Trump, Paris Accord, Impeachment Momentum

- **Episode:** [1177: Moral Army](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1177-moral-army.md)
- **Published:** 2019-10-03
- **Time:** 35:13–36:51
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1177-moral-army/chapter/donald-trump-paris-accord-impeachment-momentum.md

Donald Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Accord is described as a major disruption to the momentum of global governance. The hosts argue that the current impeachment inquiry is a desperate attempt by the political establishment to regain that lost momentum and remove a leader who opposes globalist agendas.

### British Columbia Earthquakes, Seismic Scale Changes

- **Published:** 2019-07-07
- **Time:** 2:26–5:07
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1153-pink-pound/chapter/british-columbia-earthquakes-seismic-scale-changes.md

Three significant earthquakes struck the British Columbia coast, classified by seismologists as aftershocks to a 6.2 magnitude event earlier in the week. Local retailers reported an increase in sales of earthquake survival kits and freeze-dried food. There is ongoing frustration regarding changes to the seismic measurement scales, specifically the transition to the momentum magnitude scale.

### Media Strategy, Bestseller List Statistics

- **Episode:** [996: Rats on a Plane](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/996-rats-on-a-plane.md)
- **Published:** 2018-01-05
- **Time:** 54:55–58:59
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/996-rats-on-a-plane/chapter/media-strategy-bestseller-list-statistics.md

The mechanics of bestseller lists are examined, noting that they often rely on statistical momentum rather than total sales figures. It is suggested that the media keeps a high-pitched focus on Trump's mental health not to remove him from office, but to energize the Democratic base for the 2018 midterms.

- **Time:** 4:19
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/940-dealio/chapter/california-earthquake-experience-and-fracking-concerns.md

John C. Dvorak describes a 3.3 magnitude earthquake that occurred near his home in Kensington, California, noting the specific deep bass frequencies associated with seismic events. The discussion transitions to the increase in earthquakes across the United States, specifically in Oklahoma and Texas, which is attributed to fracking activities. Criticism is leveled at state governments for a perceived lack of respect for citizens affected by these man-made tremors.

### UK Youth Vote, Jeremy Corbyn and Momentum

- **Episode:** [937: Stump the Algo](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/937-stump-the-algo.md)
- **Published:** 2017-06-11
- **Time:** 7:14–13:30
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/937-stump-the-algo/chapter/uk-youth-vote-jeremy-corbyn-and-momentum.md

Jeremy Corbyn's electoral success is attributed to the grassroots organization Momentum, which utilized strategies from Bernie Sanders' volunteers to mobilize young voters. High student turnout, driven by regret over the Brexit referendum results, led to the defeat of established politicians like Nick Clegg. The presence of eccentric characters in the background of political victory speeches is noted as a sign of shifting UK political culture.

- **Time:** 24:59–28:35
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/194-blood-trains/chapter/general-aviation-restrictions-and-train-safety-physics.md

The discussion shifts to the systematic dismantling of general aviation through TSA regulations and airport restrictions. The hosts engage in a theoretical debate about the physics of high-speed train crashes versus airplane accidents. They explore concepts of momentum and gravity, questioning whether a passenger jumping in a moving train would experience a change in position relative to the floor.
