Sources Claim That Ron DeSantis Ate Pudding With Three Fingers
"New York magazine, Margaret Hartman, headline. Ron DeSantis eating pudding with his fingers will end his 2024 bid. She writes Ron DeSantis has been hit with a fast art with a food related accusation so weird it may end his 2024 presidential bid before it officially starts. The Daily Beast reports that according to two sources, the Florida governor once ate chocolate pudding with three fingers. This article in a New York publication says politicians are human beings who need to consume food and water in order to live just like the rest of us, but they should really consider only taking in sustenance alone in a darkened room. Just to be safe. Chris Christie is forever the governor who berated a guy while clutching an ice cream cone. The only thing most people remember about senator Amy Klobuchar's 2020 presidential bid is that she was accused of eating salad with a comb. I mean, this is a serious argument. That they're making. Ron DeSantis being a messy eater eater is a disqualifier. Now what's fascinating is I know this doesn't surprise you. The elitist of New York magazine doesn't even consider Ron DeSantis military career.
The Breakdown
Gary Gensler, Bitcoin and the Bad-Faith SEC
"All right Friends, well, hope you had a great weekend. And to kick the day off, I wanted to bring you back to a simpler time. Remember when Gary gensler was first coming into this SEC role and so many folks, myself included thought, hey, maybe this will be good. I mean, this is a guy who has taught about Bitcoin and crypto at MIT right? The simple fact of that understanding is almost certainly likely to make him better to work with than someone like Jake Clayton and then remember how Gary decided to be avowedly against the industry. To perpetuate a regulation by enforcement approach and to take actions that are clearly less about the investor protection he purports to care so much about and so much more focused on advancing his own political career, while in all of that, a road bump on Gary's preferred political path are the questions that swirl around his discussions with Sam bankman freed and FTX. Genzler's opponents in Congress are getting louder about demanding answers. About the SEC's discussions with FTX, as well as their investigations into FTX after the collapse. The narrative those opponents are trying to make stick is a pretty simple one. At the same time, Gary was scoring PR victory slapping Kim Kardashian on the wrist, he was also meeting with the guy who ended up being revealed as one of the biggest financial frauds in American history. The problem for gensler is that it's a pretty compelling narrative sort of backed transparently by the facts. It's enough of a problem, in fact, that gensler has started to fight his own media counter offensive. Late last week, New York magazine published a pretty extensive piece called can Gary gensler survived crypto winter. D.C.'s top financial cop on bankman freed blowback. In the interview gensler discusses at least one of his meetings with FTX directly. The meeting in question came a year ago in March 2022. FTX had come in with IEX, a stock exchange that they were in the process of acquiring a piece of, and the two firms together were pitching a quote alternative trading system, which is basically an SEC approved trading venue that has lighter regulations than being a national securities exchange would.

"As someone who is like a people pleaser and goes out of their way, probably too far out of their way to be like the polite one. I think I care too much about it. But I don't know. Don't you? I feel like you're really polite person too. Yes, I care about things a lot, but this New York mag debacle. Okay, let's just run through this. Let's just explain to the people. If you're not chronically online, like Sarah and myself, New York magazine did a story about how to act in public, which I thought was kind of hilarious. It says. Do you know how to behave? And it goes through basically all of these etiquette tips on what you should and shouldn't do. For instance, one is it's never too late to send a condolence note. Another one is, never send an edible arrangement. I disagree with that wholeheartedly. Why would they say that? The thing is, is there's no nuance to this. It's not explaining why or why not? Maybe they're just saying it's like tacky or too much, I love it. When I worked in an office, I loved getting an edible arrangement, both a literal, edible arrangement from the from anyone, like send food, but then also an edible arrangement where it's like heart made out of strawberry chocolate dip strawberries, yeah. Correct. A bouquet of fruit that's chocolate dips, sign me the hell up. They're delicious. Edible arrangements sponsor this podcast, please. I'm sending you an edible arrangement. Thank you. I can't wait. Great. I will do that. It says it's okay to go after one date. I agree. I agree. You have nothing, yeah. You felt it out. hey, listen, this isn't going to work, but it's just like, why exhaust if you know. Yeah. I'd probably be like,

Caller Claims a Vice President Can De-Classify Documents
"I just wanted to point out because I know that you are so you care a lot about getting things right. And I just wanted to point out that the vice president does have the authority to declassify information. Where are you getting your information? Because you're the only person in America who is saying this. Well, it's from executive order one three 5 two 6 of December 29th, 2009. I just Googled Ken vice president B classified documents. They can't. They can not do that. I'm not sure what executive I'm telling you, Jenny. They can not. So you're saying you're saying the federal government is wrong, you're saying Donald John Trump is wrong. You're saying Mike Pence is wrong? I'm just saying that based on this executive order and the analysis done by Washington Post and New York magazine. Liberal organization, liberal. USA Today. Well, I'm just, I understand that. Those are liberal leaning organizations. I get that. But they can't falsify what an executive order says. Jenny, I am telling you, the vice president of the United States can not declassify information. That is only allowed, and by the way, that is not an executive order, this is the presidential records act. It only allows for the president. I don't care. It could be from, it could be from 1799, Jenny, I'm just saying. The presidential records act specifically says only the president of the United States has the authority to declassify. Okay. I would just encourage you to take a look at it.

John Guandolo: It's Much Worse Inside the FBI Than You Think
"Your analysis of what's happening with the FBI here? They're posting pictures of Time Magazine covers. Seems as if they're almost taunting the former president. I believe this is highly political. You've worked in the bureau for quite some time and you know it better than almost anybody else. What's going on right now with the FBI is it as bad as it seems? Yes, I think it's actually worse than most Americans understand both the department of justice, the FBI, and quite frankly, the broader federal government you've addressed a number of these points on this show and previous shows. So I would go back to James Comey. I honestly believe you got to start there. One of the things I find fascinating is I go around the country and speak to leaders and communities and as we train communities at my organization understanding the threat, I find that very few people know that James Comey publicly admitted he was a communist right when he was leaving the office as the U.S. attorney of the southern district of New York to become the Deputy Attorney General. And this is back in 2003 in a New York magazine article. He admits he's a communist. And then he gets elevated to the Deputy Attorney General and then elevated to become the director of the FBI. And I think the takeaway for your listeners and viewers is that if a guy who openly admits he was a communist, can get elevated to those levels inside our federal government, almost 20 years ago, imagine how bad the communist movement and the greater cabal is inside our federal government today. So yes, it is much worse inside the FBI than I think most people believe it is.

Who is on the program? This week on the program, I talked to Sam Sanders. Sam Sanders is or was, I should say, a long time NPR host, he hosted the politics podcast and then for the last couple of years, he's hosted a show called it's been a minute, but he has left NPR and he just launched, in fact, he launched it the day we talked, a new podcast called Intuit for vulture. It's a culture show and we talked about starting something new and leave an NPR. It's always fun to have these conversations with people on the day that something launches. It's like an exciting moment. And Aaron, we did it in person, rare in person interview. I don't think I've done an in person interview since COVID other than the time that Evan came to my house to interview me, which doesn't really count. So I envy you that sounds delightful. Everything about this setting and setup seems delightful. We should say for full disclosure, this show is produced and partnership with vox media. I believe they also produce the vulture show that Sam Sanders, is that correct? New York magazine, part of vox vulture part of New York magazine. This is two vac shows. It's the same family here. Consider it disclosed. Here is max with Sam Sanders. Hey Sam, how are you? I'm all right, man. How are you?

If Biden Doesn't Run in 2024, Who's Up Next for the Democrats?
"What does 2024 look like? Is it going to be Kamala? How are they going to deal with that? Is she going to be replaced by somebody else? You've been in the swamp long enough. What is your spider sense telling you? You know, there was a very interesting New York magazine article about this in the last couple of days. Did a deep dive on just how dispirited Democrats are with Joe Biden. He's in. Now, the Biden people are insisting he's running again. I know. And here's what I'll tell you. I think every day that goes by, the he is still the illegitimate but sitting president. And then he's still the presumptive nominee. I think it becomes more and more likely that he is their nominee. Really? I really do. And I'll tell you why, because time is getting time is getting shorter and shorter and shorter, and they haven't had anybody to step up, and by Kamala Harris being as horrible as she has. Staff complete turnover, disaster. Every speech. Every speech disaster, no, again, no positivity. She is 15% lower, 15% lower in approval where Joe Biden was under Obama. She's 11% lower where Mike Pence was under president Trump. Wow. She is disdained and derided. So with that, you don't have a city vice president who could step in. And then you look beyond it. And they look at a bunch of governors like Cooper out of North Carolina to look at pritzker out of Illinois. They're looking at Newsom out of California, but there's nobody logical. There's no logical next. You mean it's not going to be mad Pete barris? Edge? You listen, I think it may be, but he's too busy. He's still an opportunity to leave.

"The next morning edition from NPR news Tomorrow morning at 5 on 90.1 This is all things considered I'm Scott detro And I'm Elsa Chang A group of black lives matters leaders are facing questions about the purchase of a $6 million home in Southern California It was bought with donations made to the Black Lives Matter global network foundation also known as BLM This transaction is raising questions about how the social justice organization is using donations Sean Campbell wrote a story about the home that appeared in New York magazine this week He's an investigative journalist and adjunct professor at Columbia journalism school and joins us now Welcome Thanks for having me on also really appreciate it Thanks for being with us So before we get into the story of this home purchase can you just very quickly tell us the difference between Black Lives Matter and BLM So Black Lives Matter is the name for modern civil rights movement that we currently have The Black Lives Matter global network foundation is a separate autonomous entity that is run by various people and has its own connections It's a bit of a problem that this organization has become associated as the name of Black Lives Matter when the two are totally separate There's the movement where local activists and anyone who agrees with the statement that Black Lives Matter and then there's this organization that has honestly been collecting the majority of the funds Okay well to give people an idea of the amount of money that this foundation has collected you say that they've previously reported something like $90 million in donations in 2020 and spent about 30 million of that by February of 2021 This house being one of the purchases When it comes to the $6 million house what are leaders saying to justify why they spent so much money on it Yes it's a very luxury property So I can tell you the global network foundation justified the purchase as a space where black creatives could come and create their art and influence things for the movement They also in a memo that I obtained later wanted to use the home as a safe house when people were feeling threatened or receiving death threats other things That was their justification for this Well what do some local chapters of BLM think about these justifications like have any of them made statements about This real estate deal So I can say I haven't seen any formal statements just yet but leaders that I've spoken with with some chapters they're upset They feel like these resources could be put to better use They could have been done more efficiently I know Tori Russell in Ferguson he's been working with Mike Brown senior who his father of the slave Mike Brown junior whose death sparked the protests in Ferguson in 2014 He's been struggling to get $1.2 million for a community center that would have the opportunity to provide safe housing or housing for some of the actives he's seen go homeless One of the leaders you say knew about this purchase is Patrice colors She took to Instagram and she absolutely denies that she misused any funds She wrote in part quote I want to be clear while I will always see myself as part of the BLM community I am no longer in leadership and I am not a part of any decision making processes within the foundation I have never misappropriated funds To be fair is it possible that this house is exactly what BLM leaders say it is It's a safe house that's also a space for black creators To be fair we could say that I could also tell you that I know that the house is monitored by Patrice colors his brother and he is paid with BLM funds and that they've been a regular contact with Patrice colors about the use of the property While not having that same information available to other activists within the organization Patrice wasn't just aware of the home she used it She used it for her own personal YouTube channel where she shot a number of videos which we discuss and the publication including conversations with malign Abdullah and Alicia Garza on the patio of the property Well on Twitter you wrote quote this one has been heartbreaking And that Black Lives Matter is a statement of fact that is larger than one organization Can you tell me why you felt the need to post those words 'cause it's true The fact of the matter is is you know when I have these conversations with activists and leaders like it hurts Eric's for me even I was a report this as a black person that's experienced a lot of the things that the network is purporting to be working against Yeah it hurts and hurts me that some people might try and twist this in ways that this organization is somehow standing in for the movement as a whole which is absolutely false Black Lives Matter global network foundation is a separate entity has its own leadership that is not the movement And I would like that to be the takeaway for anyone who reads the story and anything else in any other problems they have Sean Campbell is an investigative journalist and adjunct professor at Columbia journalism school He also writes for New York magazine Thank you very much Thank you Appreciate you having me on Finally today two words making a lot of baseball fans very happy Opening day Major League Baseball's regular season is now underway and opening day is especially joyous for the Saint Louis Cardinals who are welcoming back Albert pupils.

The Democratic Party Is in Serious Trouble, AOC Warns
"The Democratic Party is clearly in trouble and this is confirmed now by a series of surveys and studies and polls, and even the mainstream media, which would obviously view this as bad news. They've been cheering and trying to kind of prop up Biden now ever since the guy came into office. But evidently those efforts have failed, or put it differently, even though the media has been cheering for Biden, the American people really aren't buying it. And Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez AOC has a sort of diagnosis for why this is so. Now, obviously, I agree with her starting point, starting point, which is the thumbnail of this podcast is we're in trouble. And we here refers to the Democratic Party. So I think she's right about that. Now let's look at AOC's diagnosis as to why that is the case. Because I think ironically that her policy prescriptions are a solution may actually be what's causing the problem in the first place. So here's The O.C.. She says, first of all, and this is an a description in New York magazine that's giving a kind of favorable analysis of AOC. She says that Biden is under a kind of delusion. And the delusion is that the Democrats can reach out to the moderate center and cut deals. And so Biden, she thinks because of his past, he's kind of a backroom politician, light up the cigar, sit down, work out a deal, particularly inside of his own party. She thinks that this is what Biden has been trying to do with people like cinema and especially with Manchin and according to AOC, that is the old Democratic Party. That politics is now antiquated. AOC says quote, I think that there's a real nostalgia and belief that that time still exists. Or that we can get back to that. So apparently according to AOC and again, she may be right about this. There are not a whole lot of mod with Democrats left in the Democratic Party. So the idea that you can bring a guy like Manchin along, she says, was always an illusion that she never sort of fell for it, but she thinks Biden, Biden

Good morning You shared with us some tape from the people you spoke with and we'll get into some of the details in a moment but let me just start by asking you why you wanted to do a piece like this and what you took away from Sure Well this was actually an idea that New York magazine came up with as a way to humanize the people that died beyond a death number four and a summary of their charges I think jails are very chaotic and hidden places by design But when you fly into Laguardia if you look down they're not 8 gel facilities there housing 5300 people 95% of whom have not gone to trial yet So they're innocent to proven guilty and we wanted to really dig into who these people were and how they were ending up there and how they were dying Let's talk about some of the people you profiled The youngest was Isaiah Johnson You spoke to his parents Tracy and Jerome Johnson We'd like to see other people happy And even if he was going through his own stuff he wanted just to see everybody happy and he's always saying I'm going to change the world one day He was just a sweet spirit you know Tell us about his size So Asia was 24 and he loved to sing and write songs and dance and he actually moved to New York in hopes of pursuing a music career and also there was a man that he had been in love with that he was hoping to reconnect with But not long after he arrived He kind of had a falling out with his young man and the young man kicked him out And that's when Asia started to unravel He had struggled throughout his life with different mental health issues He also had Asperger's autism some ADHD but it seems that being in New York was really destabilizing for him and he started making some threatening calls to the college where this young man that he'd been dating had attended And that's what led to his first arrest Then over his next two years different relationships after they went south had a similar pattern where he would get paranoid and make threatening statements And so he was really somebody that needed some mental healthcare not to be locked up in Rikers I'd like to hear about another person you profiled Brandon Rodriguez was only 25 when he died of a parent suicide after a beating by guards His mom tamer Carter says he was never suicidal before he got to writers What happened there that he resorted to this This person that wanted everybody's attention this happy person to do that if that's what happened There's no answer to nothing She says it's really hard not knowing what happened to her son How am I supposed to sit with that It makes me angry Days I'm angry and days I'm just emotional wreck What can you tell us about Brandon Brandon came into the world as his mother says loud loving attention He hated to be left alone And he was this really dynamic social kid He also and there are resonances here with a size Johnson You know he struggled with mental health issues He had ADHD and bipolar disorder throughout his life he was school was hard at times and he struggled in that way And when he was 18 he was arrested in Westchester county and his health declined really quickly And after a lot of struggle at the jail they took him to the hospital when he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis And that was a real struggle for him You know he was a young man with a very serious disease And that was something that he kind of grappled with He was living with his family trying to get his life together And then he got arrested for allegedly choking a woman that he was romantically involved with And he went back to Rikers at a time where the crisis was really sort of peaking People were stuck in intake for days on end They're supposed to be there from no more than 24 hours Even at the best times at Rikers intake is chaotic dirty people are coming down from addiction and detoxing So the tension was really high He spent days in intake He was beaten up by another group of men who were incarcerated and his eye socket was broken and he had to be taken to the hospital When he came back he was either assaulted or had an altercation with the correctional officers who dragged him out of the cell and he was put into a shower cell which is sometimes used as sort of de facto solitary confinement or isolation And that was when he rapped a T-shirt around his neck and was later found unresponsive from what we understand His death has not yet been ruled as suicide and his family can't get any answers You know they have been calling the jail They have been calling authorities They have been calling the board of correction trying to find out what happened to this young man In some of these cases he seems like the brutality of Rikers is a factor as you were saying And another common themes seems to be men struggling with mental health issues is teens and as young adults What's your sense of whether these guys had access to the sort of support they actually needed behind bars Well we know that for the vast majority of people being held at Rikers they did not receive even their scheduled mental health visits During much of the night of 2021 50% of the scheduled mental health visits the detainees were not produced because of staffing shortages So people weren't getting their clinical visits they weren't getting their medication and it's important to remember about 50% of the detainees have a diagnosed mental health issue about 20% I believe with a serious mental health diagnosis So really it's a population that's very very vulnerable and they're being put in such a stressful chaotic situation We have seen that jails and prisons become the de facto mental health institutions because we don't have a lot of services elsewhere And so that affects everyone in the jail It affects the other people incarcerated there It affects staff who didn't come onto the job necessarily trained to deal with severe mental health issues I would say the problem often starts far beyond And there are a lot of holes in the system that lead people with mental health issues to end up on Rikers Island Reporters bliss brew your art and Lisa Reardon Seville profile the people killed in Rikers last year for New York magazine Lisa bliss thank you Thank you Thank you for highlighting the story Thank you Rodriguez's death is being investigated by the New York State attorney general's office the DOC says

jail they took him to the hospital and he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis And that was a real struggle for him You know he was a young man with a very serious disease And that was something that he kind of grappled with He was living with his family trying to get his life together And then he got arrested for allegedly choking a woman that he was romantically involved with And he went back to Rikers at a time where the crisis was really sort of peaking People were stuck in intake for days on end They're supposed to be there for no more than 24 hours Even at the best times at Rikers intake is chaotic dirty people are coming down from addiction and detoxing So the tension was really high He spent days in intake He was beaten up by another group of men who were incarcerated and his eye socket was broken and he had to be taken to the hospital When he came back he was either assaulted or had an altercation with the correctional officers who dragged him out of the cell and he was put into a shower cell which is sometimes used as sort of de facto solitary confinement or isolation And that was when he rapped a T-shirt around his neck and was later found unresponsive from what we understand His death has not yet been ruled as suicide and his family can't get any answers You know they have been calling the jail They have been calling authorities They have been calling the board of correction trying to find out what happened to this young man In some of these cases it seems like the brutality of Rikers is a factor as you were saying And another common theme seems to be men struggling with mental health issues is teens and as young adults what's your sense of whether these guys had access to the sort of support they actually needed behind bars While we know that for the vast majority of people being held at Rikers they did not receive even their scheduled mental health visits During much of the night of 2021 50% of the scheduled mental health visits the detainees were not produced because of staffing shortages So people weren't getting their clinical visits They weren't getting their medication and it's important to remember about 50% of the detainees have a diagnosed mental health issue about 20% I believe with a serious mental health diagnosis So really it's a population that's very very vulnerable and they're being put in such a stressful chaotic situation We have seen that jails and prisons become the de facto mental health institutions because we don't have a lot of services elsewhere And so that affects everyone in the jail It affects the other people incarcerated there It affects staff who didn't come onto the job necessarily trained to deal with severe mental health issues I would say the problem often starts far beyond And there are a lot of holes in the system that lead people with mental health issues to end up on Rikers Island Reporters bliss brewer yard and Lisa reared in Seville profile the people killed in Rikers last year

The Science of Masks Is Still Uncertain
"New york magazine is on the left on occasion. It produces a non left peace new york magazine. Science of masking kids at school remains uncertain. The title is way. Way understating vic. The arguments of the article at the end of may the centers for disease control and prevention published a notable yet mostly ignored large scale. Study of cova transmission in american schools. These findings cast doubt on the impact of many of the most. Common mitigation measures measures in american schools distancing hybrid models classroom barriers hep filters and most notably requiring student. Masking were each found to not have a statistically significant benefit. I'm allowing that to sink in. This is a cbc study which needless to say made no headlines that i'm aware of in the united states but this experts say masks on children harmful or and useless to year olds have to wear masks onto airplanes. And we're proud of our society and there are people on the plane who were scared of a three year old. Not wearing a mask. I fear irrationality and i don't fear much in other words. These measures cannot be said to be effective. Many of america's peer nations around the world including the u k ireland all of scandinavia france. The netherlands switzerland italy have exempted kids with varying age. Cutoffs from wearing masks classrooms really. They must be dying. These kids must be killing teachers conspicuously. There's no evidence of more outbreaks in schools. Those countries relative to schools in the. Us does that matter. Those of you who say you follow the science and take the left wing. Positions on science are lying to yourselves.

"Is your morning ritual. Kn s t A. M. 7 90, Tucson's most stimulating talk. You missed that interview with Dr Neil Shaw will have it up on the page by about 10 10 15 this morning at Kunst dot com. It was a phenomenal about Covid and masks and the FDA rushing approval and why it doesn't really work well and Other treatments for Covid. It was phenomenal running for governor, Minnesota. Very, very, very smart guy. What we need in this country. Then, um, over the weekend, I saw this story And of course I was off yesterday. Big Thanks to Ed Martin Big thanks to Ryan for handling everything while I was gone. Saw this story at a New York magazine. And it was the science of masking kids at school remains uncertain. And this is incredible because it points out how the CDC literally ignored a giant study that proved masks aren't needed in schools. They don't do anything to stop covid transmission. And this is his Miranda just voted to go for a mask mandate and the superintendent lied to everyone. About the forms to get out of it. Lying superintendent to take over the school boards and fire these freaking people. That's it. So here's the story at the end of May. The CDC published a notable yet mostly ignored large scale study of covid transmission in American schools. A few major news outlets covered. It's released by briefly reiterating the study's summary. That masking then unvaccinated teachers and improving ventilation with more fresh air were associated with a lower incidence of the virus in schools. Those are common sense measures, right? Other findings of equal importance in the study were absent. From the summary and not widely reported. What are them? What are they? What What's going on? These findings cast doubt on the impact of many of the most common mitigation measures in American schools. Distancing hybrid models, classroom barriers, HEPA filters. And required students to mask Everything that I just mentioned was found to not have a statistically significant benefit. They are not effective. And yet the C D. C. Left those parts out. The parts that prove distancing mask wearing Everything they want to happen in schools. Has no effect. The CDC simply left it out. The study, published by the CDC was both ambitious and groundbreaking had over 90,000 Elementary school students in it. 169 Georgia schools from November 16th of December 11th. CDC said it was the first of its kind to compare Covid 19 incidents in schools with certain mitigation measures in place right to other schools without the measures. So this writer for New York magazine writes scientists I spoke with believe that the decision not to include the no effects of a student masking requirement and distancing and hybrid things like that. Did not include this in the summary amounted to file drawing these findings, a term researchers used for the practice of burying studies. That don't produce statistically significant results. Vinnie Press it press, said associate professor at University of California San Francisco's Department of Epidemiology and biostatistics. He's a liberal. I follow him on Twitter that has come out by the way. In favor of not masking kids. He said, quote that a masking requirement of students failed to show independent benefit. Is a finding of consequence and great interest. The summary gives the impression that only masking of staff was studied, said Tracy Hogan, epidemiologist and a senior author of a separate study on covid 19 transmission in schools. Then, she said, when in reality there was this additional important detection about a student masking requirement, not having a statistical impact so once again The C D. C literally hid That masks don't have an impact on stopping transmission of covid, which is why I get so pissed off. When I walk into doctor's offices or other businesses, CDC recommends you wear a mask. We require it to come in. You believe the CDC? You're a fool. You're an absolute fool. After the C D. C and the American Academy of Pediatrics issued their student mass guidance last month. This writer says he contacted both organizations asking for the evidence. Or underlying data upon which they had based their recommendations of masking kids in schools. Shockingly right. The American Academy of Pediatrics didn't respond to multiple requests. Hey, you know, as a member of that, that that nutty, horrible lying pediatrician Dr Sandy, what was her last name? Heron Heron heron Right over there. Tanker Verdy Pediatrics. So the American Academy Pediatrics didn't respond to the fact the CDC hit the data about masking having no impact in schools. CDC press Really press office replied that since kids under 12 can be vaccinated, they recommend schools to universal masking. And included links included links to unrelated materials on vaccines and recent outbreaks among adults so they couldn't actually back up. With any data why kids should be masked. So this reporter for New York magazine who, by the way, is a liberal rights over the course of several weeks. I also corresponded with many experts. Epidemiologists, infectious disease specialists and immunity. John Immunologists, pediatricians all this stuff, right? All this stuff asking for the best evidence they were aware of that mask requirements on students were effective. Nobody was able to find a data set. As robust as these Georgia results Meaning a large Coke court study directly looking at the effects of a mask requirements, and it's again the same study. At the C. D. C. Buried. Buried. About mass not working. They couldn't they couldn't find it..

"But i remember. I mean that era when i was on. Snl which would be eighty eight till like ninety one. You really did have to see it when it was on tv. You had to see it and and you of course have been part of this era where so many people are watching it afterwards in all these different ways and they're watching it for days afterwards so there are the people that watch it live while it's happening and then there's this entire other audience that's checking it out which i think is kind of a gift. Because they're seeing your work over and over and over again sometimes in trading it and i think that's contributed a lot to how much people adore your work. That's a great way to look at it and should be the only way to look at it. But i think i still i i would worry. That's like there's an oversaturation or it makes it harder to do recurring because people feel like they've seen something so much more than you've done it because they can watch it over and over i disagree. I think it's a really good thing for you. And i'm not gonna let you know it is. It is good. And i'm i'm trying to be better at like not qualifying things. That should be positive going. But here's the astros. Here's why it's not positive. Yeah but that's natural. That's a defensive mechanism that you've developed over millions of years of evolution so you can't be this evolution sucks if it got us to pat. You could have had a long millions of years. Eight million years ago you could have developed a third lung and a much larger brain all of us could have but we decided that lizard decided. I'm gonna go with more self doubt and crippling anxiety who needs a third lung and a much browns and self doubt. It's funny it's like sometimes. I'll meet people in different monkey. We come from a different. I would i. I love that. Don't i think you mentioned that phrase in your book. I read that in your blah blah play. Yeah it's like a thing. I truly believe in so you meet the hemsworth different monkey. I know what you mean. I there's so many Over the years. I've interviewed all these people in person on the tv show. And and these men i think. Oh you're i know that technically were both adult male homo sapiens. But why does your chest look so much different than mine. You really are as you would say a different monkey. You know that happen. That's why on steroids. There's know so funny. Because when i think most people would hear that oh excessively strong has a book out. Maybe the immediate assumption would be. This is going to be a book of wacky stories of you know silly stories and What you've written is a really beautiful. Meditation over it takes place Mostly throughout cova did But threaded throughout the book and really. The theme of the book is the loss of your cousin owen. So i thought. I'd i'd kind of start this part by saying i'm sorry about your cousin because reading the book i feel like i know this man and i like him and this loss really does come through. I mean it's very nice that you sit you know it's great to feel like i'm letting people know him and like him because he was just such a gift to me and it's nice to share that in a way that i think you know it's the way he's still going then to know and then even today that we were losing him and i knew he would be gone that night. It was sort of all night. I kept thinking where in times faces on in this moment. Where is he on his journey. Whereas you know a said there's like the whole Where in time and space is. Oh and am i was really part of the book and so i think that that's the weaving. It's funny it's funny is the wrong word. I'm going to say it's funny in that way that were you know what i'm you know what i'm saying when i say funny not that i must path. I'm just laughing at your. Very personal loss is hilarious. No what is peculiar to me. But i can relate to it is. There's a lot that i find is would be helpful. If i was going through loss reading this it would be a little bit of a manual of this is not a bad way to process it. This is not a bad way to metabolize loss and have it mean something. Does that makes sense. Yeah that's very kind of you to say and i would hope That's sort of part of why i would publish something. That's like insane to do. If you're at all a private person. But i and i think the couple of things that i heard back early on after doing the essay for new york magazine was sort of hearing that from people that it was at all helpful felt like well that is then a reason to publish it. I thought there's a part of the book. I that Really struck me which is at one point. You're talking about a relationship you'd had in the past With someone and it's implied that the relationship wasn't the healthiest relationship. And you don't really get into specifics but you you say that you reached out to this other person in the relationship and asked. Could you write about it. You wouldn't use their name and this person wrote back and said no. I'd rather you..

Cuomo refuses to resign despite calls from top New York Democrats
"York's democratic governor. Andrew cuomo is in water that appears to be getting deeper and hotter all the time after the publication of along investigative piece by rebecca traced her a new york magazine today. Basically a long form review of the work culture in cuomo's office and his administration and reporting on a litany of women who have worked for him who say he has behaved inappropriately toward them in the workplace tonight both. Us senators from new york. Democratic senate leader chuck schumer and democratic. Senator kirsten gillibrand kirsten gillibrand. Both have called for governor cuomo to resign from the governorship senator schumer gillibrand join a majority of the overall congressional delegation from new york in now calling for cuomo to step down. This is the front page huffington post tonight quote. It's over schumer and jill brand coal for cuomo's head now the photo. There is one of an odd series of reuters photographs. Taken today at the governor's mansion apparently from quite a distance in these photos. The governor is seen walking around talking on a cell phone while wearing a blanket. Also his it should be noted. He's in the company of a really quite amazing looking. Good dog but why. The governor's wearing a blanket. Nobody knows the news of senator. Schumer and senator gillibrand joining the pile on now demanding. Cuomo's resignation is front page news all over the country tonight so far cuomo himself is showing no signs of heating these demands for his resignation if he refuses to resign ultimately the only way he can be removed from office against his will before the next election of course is by impeachment as we reported here last night. Democrats in the state legislature in new york have announced the opening of an impeachment inquiry targeting cuomo acid yesterday. If they do impeach him in the assembly he will then go on trial in the new york senate where a majority of new york senators have already called on him to resign thus making it seem more than just likely that he would be convicted in the senate and removed from office if the assembly goes ahead and impeach him but again that process has just starting and again. Lots of calls tonight. That this news. About senator. Schumer and senator gillibrand means. It is over for governor. Cuomo seems disagree. We will let you know if the story develops further over the course of the night. It's a fair bet that it will. We will let you know

But Weaver's harassment continued. So they then had all Wells. Just chatter is just chatter. But it turns out that Weaver had been sending messages that range from provocative to sexually explicit to 21 men going back through the years, including the one recipient who was 14 years old. 14. That's not a young man. A 14 year old is the boy. Yes, but Ophelia now None worked at the Lincoln Project for former members of the Lincoln Project called on the company to free them to speak about Weaver. So here's the hilarious thing. So Lincoln Project was very angry at Trump for having these non disclosure agreements right there a bunch of women who said I want to talk freely about Trump. He's got these envious and I can't violate the NBA's Lincoln Project was like he should release them from the NBA's. It turns out Half their employees can't speak freely about the stuff because of wait for it and the A's Apparently, these four former members of the Lincoln Project, said quote Lincoln Project contractors and employees are calling on the organization's released anyone with knowledge of harassment or who has been harassed by John Weaver from their non disclosure agreements so they can speak freely about what happened to them or what they know about what happened to others. Johnson said. I really want to believe everyone that they didn't know the extent of it. They made it seem like this was out of the blue. It seems like they were just lying and one being truthful to me. Johnson was not alone among the interns who say they were harassed by Weaver. One of them was Charlie Stephens, a 19 year old rising sophomore Dallas, You We were asked him if he or any of his peers might be interested in an internship Tell kick the bleep out of Trump and against Senate Republican incumbent Even said he was interested. We've responded he'd be perfect. A week later, Stevens told Weaver he formally applied to the role. You are nothing stud, Weaver said. When Stevens Jim, you're saying he was quite the compliment, we've responded. Take it. Hell, you may very well be Mm. Salad stuff here. Okay, So it turns out that the Lincoln project being filled with terrible people want grafters? Didn't stop there and stop there. It turns out that not only are they not releasing people from their NBA's but now the Lincoln Project last night in order to defend against itself decided to publish Screenshots of private Twitter direct messages belonging to one of its co founders, Jennifer Horn, Remember, I mentioned her earlier. Born left Lincoln Project last week amid the John Weaver scandal, and she has been spending with the anti Trump group ever since her departure, according to Fox News, But the Lincoln Project escalated tensions on Thursday night with tweets that appeared to be in exchange she had with 19th news correspondent Amanda Becker. So this is illegal. To. Somehow they got a hold of private messages between an ex employee and a reporter, and then they push those out on Twitter..

"In fact, I was just talking to my friend and colleague Mike Grunwald, who works for Politico who wrote that book. It's terrific. Oh, it really is. In fact, I just talking to about his book. The new new Deal, which is the story of the Obama stimulus plan, because now Biden is trying to negotiate or pass his own stimulus plan and buying us applying a lot of lessons he learned in 2009 negotiating that stimulus, and he's applying it today in dealing with the GOP. It's a really interesting situation, you know. Biden is coming into office as a newly elected president, 2009. Was newly elected vice president dealing with a resistant Republican minority. And dealing with an economic crisis left behind by a prior Republican administration. There were 12 years later, very similar same thing. The only difference is that I was talking to somebody earlier about this L. Ed Kilgore from the New York magazine. That Biden, Unlike Clinton, who made mistakes when he came into office after 12 years of the other party being in the White House, there's a lot of veterans who solid one wrong. With the early months of the Obama administration are not going to make the same mistake. Hopefully they say, Yeah, right. Yeah, That's what I'm saying. I said there applying some of those lessons learned. And I think part of one of those major lessons is this If you're going to do stimulus, go big, go fast. And if need be, go it alone without the GOP, and I think you're gonna see that reconciliation right? And mark one more thing about that book by Mr Grunwald. That's so good. The swamp on Florida Those Seminoles were tough people weren't they unknown story? Really? That's really the United States first and longest war of genocide. Florida became a state because escaped slaves from Georgia, which were just talking about were coming across the border in the Spanish own Florida. And in order to stop that from happening they sent in Andrew Jackson and the war against the Seminoles, who are Associated Association of Wild So to speak. A tribe's disparate tribes of the Spanish called See Macron is which means wild ones. And that was Anglicized Seminoles. So Florida essentially became a territory and then a state in order to extend and protect the franchise of slavery. And your colleague makes a good point that it was our first Vietnam that war always very much wasabi. And you know, the Seminoles of the Miccosukee. These are the only one on Lee tribes in the United States to have I believe May I shouldn't say this, but the Laura's They're the only tribes United States never to have signed a peace treaty with the U.

"Them heroes to half the country. I say this does somebody who benefited, however, inadvertently from it. McKay Coppins is a staff writer at the Atlantic. How did he benefit? Well, when I would, you know, Write a story that was skeptical of Donald Trump. I would get, you know invited to go on the Daily show. I would Get offered speaking engagements. My stories would you know be retweeted and travel all over the world. You basically had this huge, global cheering section. You have this great line in your piece that once obscure correspondents were recast in the popular imagination as resistance heroes. Yeah. I mean, that was, I think the strangest part of it right? Honestly, Journalists tend to do their best work when they're not seen as heroic figures when they're actually kind of Obnoxious, little too nosy and a little bit on the fringe of whatever world they're covering, and they're not glammed up. Instead, they're kind of just these rumpled observers of American life. I think that's kind of the sweet spot for journalism. And so it was kind of uncomfortable when in the imagination of one half of the country. It was almost like we had capes on right like that, I don't think is actually where the best journalism is produced. And I think the best reporters and journalists of this era did all they could to resist that. You quote New York magazine's Olivia Newton see saying that She could write in a piece quote Donald Trump is the biggest Hold to ever live, and he is a terrible human being and a bleep e president and like he's ugly, no one would be mad at me except the same people who are mad at me anyway for existing Right. That's the other thing that was happening here, Which is that in the Trump era, a lot of the conservatives who had spent time in the past criticizing the mainstream media for being biased and who had a certain amount of poll among frankly editors at Washington publications. Lot of leaders of newsrooms really cared about conservatives complaining of bias. That changed in the trump era in part because ah lot of those conservative critics went so fully off the deep end, frankly, where it was no longer a debate about whether something was biased or a story should have been framed a different way. Instead, it became Just dismissing every inconvenience story as fake news, inventing facts wholesale. What happened was that a lot of reporters and editors got desensitized. To these criticisms and kind of stopped paying attention. You know what I think Olivia was describing there is that when you have conservatives were going to be mad at you, no matter what you write every day. You end up kind of tuning out Well, they're saying and you pay more attention to the rest of the country, which exist somewhere from the center to the left. There is a kind of direct language where you're actually not just trying to convey clearly what's happening. You're trying to kind of preach to the choir, but it's only your audience. It's not the whole country and I think that Making our audience is uncomfortable is often our job, right? We have to reflect how they're feeling and what they're thinking but also present them with information and stories that will challenge how they think. That's something that we have not always done well, and I hope we can figure out how to do it. What lessons will stay with you? Now that Trump's gone I'm going to be better about not letting the political figures I write about set the terms of my coverage right. One of the things about the past five years is that Donald Trump wanted a culture war with the media, and too many of us in the media gave him one. We kind of centered ourselves in this story. In a way that a lot of readers and people out there in the public found insufferable. And I think, rightly, so, Look, it's hard because all the audience incentives again and all the Book deals and the cable news contracts and the Twitter followers flow to reporters who are at the center of political drama. But we've hopefully realized I know I have That placing myself at the center of every story is not actually usually a service to the reader, and I hope that will all be a little bit more self aware as we move forward. You think Trump was good for the journalism, business or bad? Well from a bottom line perspective, almost certainly good, at least Washington journalism, not local journalists, and in the short term, right, I think it's yet to be seen. What kind of damage He's done long term, both to the incentive structure for journalists and also to the credibility we have with the public. You know, there was already a credibility problem. Donald Trump was not the originator of it. But I think it's safe to say that four years after he was sworn in, it'll be much harder to reach vast watts of the country than it was before he became president. Are you worried about journalism's bottom line is you say in the short term, some legacy news outlets have benefited But in the long term, will people lapse into a general complacency, forgetting what brought them out into the streets? And that complacency will spill over into even more harm to journalism's ability to inform and to hold power accountable. Yeah, I think we're gonna have to expect that to happen. How do we move forward when you don't have a president who's shattering norms and breaking precedent and doing outlandish things every day when the story's arm or wonky and policy oriented and not so soap operatic as the trump years have been Not every story that comes out of Washington is going to be as exciting to put it crassly as the last four years have been, and it's really important. That we not have our business models depend on that being the case, because if they are all of us are going to be pushed to insert artificial drama into every story we do, and that's not.

"Biden got the nomination until the first Tuesday in November to bypass voters and get your bite into the White House. Who will change this famed algorithm to obliterate traffic to websites that criticized Joe Biden, Facebook and Twitter did essentially the same thing. If that's not rigging an election, there's no meaning to that phrase. The people who control the flow of virtually all information in English, became unpaid consultants to the Joe Biden for president campaign. That's pretty interesting that he's going with the it was a rigged election, but not in the way that Trump's talking about it. Yeah, and I wouldn't use the word right. I was. That means something specific. The power of information has fallen into incredibly few hands. That's our problem. And it's a serious problem. Yeah, it's pretty interesting, though. The the idea that if you know all of this of the media gets on one side, they can Make it happen. No. Yes, And you know, we're pretty familiar with Big Tech number one because of what we do for a living number two were based quite close to Silicon Valley and deal with a lot of folks and actually have a bunch of whistle blowers who let us know what's going on within the evil evil halls of Google, Facebook, Twitter at all. Um, the wrath. Mark. Yeah, it's it's probably overdue. I'm sure he's thought about the wiping us off the face of the earth. But Um Tucker went on one more 10.1 more little clip in which he points out that if you're looking for the media to save you from big Tech, you're gonna be unhappy. 30. Apart from Fox News, pretty much every major media outlet in the United States is beholden to Silicon Valley. Referrals from search engines and social media sites generate revenue that news organizations need to survive. So if you mess with big tech, you die. Those the new rules there unsustainable. You can't have a democracy in the system like that, because people can't get the information they need to make informed decisions. Bypassed the First Amendment. If Democrats take over the entire federal government tomorrow. That's it. There'll be no way to stop it. And in fact it, of course will accelerate because it benefits a specific political party. I was trying to understand what he meant by you bypassed the First Amendment because when I first heard it last night, I thought, What are you talking about? He's saying they wield the power to silence people. They do so for purely political reasons, which I'm trying to think I mean. Short of like some really loathsome individuals and or groups through our nation's history. The ability to just get people to shut up is it's extremely rare. I mean, especially when you're talking about political speech. I'm racking my brain. I'm probably missing something obvious, but the idea that Thomas Jefferson could shut down all the newspapers that were sympathetic to John Adams. There's never anything like that. It'll be fun to watch. Play out. Oh, golly. Yeah, if you like over well, meanwhile, and China, they're spreading viruses around the world that kill millions of people. That's a good spirit. Jack is claiming this without evidence. It's a conspiracy that it's it's racism. It's xenophobia. New York magazine with a big piece in which they with some, You know, serious investigative journalism coming come to the conclusion that the most likely thing is They had a virus that they were they were working on and they let it escape. Turns out for years, according to New York magazine. Scientists have been hot wiring viruses to be stronger, deadlier and more transmissible that work, the bet was that their work would help prevent a global pandemic. But they believe New York magazine believes at this point, it just escaped. Yeah, they think they were trying to craft what they call a broad spectrum vaccine. It could work against all sorts of Corona viruses. So they had, you know, keep nipping and tucking him in and mutating them then and then and continuing their experiments except This lab. Famously. It's the only level for biocontainment labs at the right term in China and our State Department, and we had this story for you last year repeatedly had reports. Their safety protocols suck. They don't even follow him. This place is dangerous. Our home I'm on China. Our own government reporting that over and over, The Washington Post reported it. And yet they still are. They You know you're you're mainstream media. Still actors of all that some sort of Trumpian nonsense. The New New York Do you know, New York magazine, please? They call Mitt Romney of Fascist, So they've talked to enough people, um, that it's a stole Bachmann's razor that the most likely explanation. Explanation is usually the right one. Basically, you talk to a bunch of doctors say, Yeah, we're working on Making a virus. Like this. Have been for years. Yes, we had sloppy protocols. And then this kind of virus escapes like blocks from where that lab is. You'd have to be pretty crazy to think that it just Organically developed in a bat market blocks from where they were developing this sort of thing, right? It's strange, your credibility, I'd say. Love this couple of sentences. There's no direct evidence for zoona tick possibilities, meaning it just came straight out of an animal. Justus. There's no evidence of experimental mishap. No written confession. No incriminating notebook. No official accident report. Certainty. Craves detail in detail requires an investigation. It's been a full year 80 million people have been infected. It's far more than that. But anyway and surprisingly, no public investigation has taken place. We still know very little about the origins of this disease. Now, why would the communist Chinese not Aggressively immediately and publically investigate this thing. There's no need. They know already. Yeah. Also. Isn't China going to end up being the winner out of this thing? To the extent that you can have a winner with a global pandemic, aren't they in a better position coming out of it, then they were going in. I've heard the experts. I like saying no Because it's really sped up the perception that China's a threat, not a budding, maybe they wanted to keep that you know, on the down low longer. Have more people continue to believe in. Ah, no, no. Is they get more? You know, richer and more tied in with the world economy, they'll they'll come around to our way of thinking, right? That's probably true disabused everybody that could put it off for a few more years. Yeah, that is over. That train has left the station. Yeah. So this guy who spent I mean, this article is longer than the Old Testament. I mean, it zah book. Well, you wouldn't want to be pretty thorough when you're accusing the second most powerful country on the planet. Of starting this. The worst health crisis in 100 years. Yeah. Yeah, but, he writes over the past few decades, scientists have developed ingenious methods of evolutionary acceleration and re combination and they've learned how to trick viruses, Corona viruses in particular. Into moving quickly from one species of animal to another, or from one type of cell culture to another. They've made machines that mix and mingle the viral code for bat diseases with the code for human diseases like SARS, for example, which arose in China No. Three and murders, which broke out decades later and has to do with bats and camels. The idea is to create new, more virulent and more infectious strains of disease is so they can study them more easily and use the more readily in the lab. And again, where is the only lab in China that does that right in the middle of Wu Han. It came from a bath a block away by coincidence. Come on. Please and if they had been more forthcoming Like you would hope we would be. For instance, if this sort of thing happened would have been a lot easier to figure out. Okay. This is what happened. This is exactly what you're working on. You have all kinds of information about it. The world could immediately get to work on Ah, vaccine in ways to treat it. Yeah, but you kept a secret. Yeah, he kept the W H o people away. And then anybody from the outside away from studying this is such a good read well worth looking into, will have the Lincoln Armstrong and getting calm under hot links. Let you read it yourself. But the guy also talks about how for the longest time there have been scientists saying, this is really, really dangerous. What you're doing in these labs. Which is why our state Department was so freaked out when they did a kind of a courtesy visit kind of a scientific exchange visit to this woo and lab. They're like doors literally, literally. Door's propped open that we're supposed to be safety sealed people walking home in their scrubs, people selling some of the lab animals for me, right when they were done with using his lab. Yeah, I mean, it wasn't like they failed to, you know, dr eyes across the teas, and there was, you know the stuff I'm talking about. And it's almost hard to wrap your head around this so scientists, you know, it might be a couple of people. Working on something in a lab that did any of those things you just mentioned, Splash some on their shoes and walked home. Whatever, Um Cost the world so far. $9 trillion, It could easily be a person, although the lax standards that the lab is kind of a systemic things, hundreds.

Even New York magazine has a what if So you've got what is the level four lab that just happens to be in Wuhan, where this thing originated. No, I have never at the beginning of this said that this was something that was released on purpose. But is there a possibility that it escaped? Yeah. Is there a possibility that they were playing around with things? Of course. Why? Because everybody plays around with viruses like this. The whole thought process is you Get in front of some stuff. You try some stuff. Potentially not for war but to prevent pandemics. When you look at it, and this is what you're hearing more and more from epidemiologist biologist That are asking the question. Hey. Lot of these things come from animals. We got nothing close. This thing has a little back little pangolin, maybe a little sip it. She's a cat. It's a serious question.

By the way for those you're not keeping score are starting an investigation. That is long overdue. Doesn't mean we get anywhere. But it's funny that you can't even broach the subject. About that. You can't even broach the subject of Hey, Do you think that we we need to ask him seriously question. Ah, no, no, no, no, it's racist to even do that, Or it's ridiculous or your conspiracy theory.

You are not going to be surprised by this one. If you have not been watching all of his videos, some of the language might confuse you. He spends a lot of time talking about excess mortality. And excess mortality is simply the number of people who die in a year above what the statisticians predicted. Would die every year. They can tell you generally speaking, how many people should die in a given year just from car accidents, Cancer, natural causes whatever they can give you a pretty good ball park. Based on the average is of all the prior years, and he spends a lot of time talking about excess mortality. And it is this will infuriate you. If you've never been exposed to this.

Her longtime partner does not have nice things to say about the U. C L. A Health center right now. Uh, cool story. Real fun story. Remember when we were talking Dave on the show extensively about how I was pretty sure that this Corona virus came from Wuhan Law lab because of all this, But then I was racist for that. So in order to be an anti racist, I stopped believing that immediately because I was told repeatedly that it was racist. Even think that that could have happened even though at that Wuhan lab. They've been mixing that viruses with other stuff for decades now, but Didn't come from there because that's racist, Dave well now that Trump has been defeated, New York magazine has big story. Hey, You know this? This virus says too many mutations, the campy explained by natural selection, and you know this. This woman and Love has been mixing that virus with other stuff for for years now and Oh, by the way, there's a Chinese whistle blower who's now come forward. Well, that's in a different story.
