On this week’s show, award-winning journalist David Sirota justly rips Democrats for not only selling out the American people but for enabling Right Wing authoritarianism:
You guys have hit some level of success financially and one of the first things you're doing is share. I totally get it.
My wife & I write novels & sell them online. We began in '12 w/ NO experience in writing nor marketing books, and we're in our 60s (shitty pensions). For six years we slaved away, no like- 50-70 hr work weeks.
Well, we kinda know our stuff now, and are living comfortably. Shortly after we hit and held the level of income we needed, we looked around to see who else we could help.
Those things we did, in our small way were so damn rewarding. I hope you have the same results.
Commercials? About time! Y'see, b/c if it's you guys taking on the sponsors, I'm confident they're legit- sorta like an endorsement!
Finally, THANK YOUUUU for putting the show up on the weekend! Now my wife & I have Sat PM listening mapped out.
David Sirota you are really on the mark tonight about the 2008 mortgage collapse. The banks came in for a clean landing after they leveled homeowners and too their homes, only to sell those homes for huge profits.
When judging the safety and efficacy of the COVID inoculations, shouldn't the fact that the injection neither prevents catching the disease (which was clearly stated in the physician's information packet) nor does it prevent transmission raise red flags in the public mind? I consider the fact that those who have taken the injections can harbor a viral load greater than that of an uninoculated person (up to 251 times according to Israeli study) as evidence of an unanticipated side-effect that should be separately studied. I can see that Matt is uncomfortable about the lack of open debate because there can be no science without spirited debate. That is how knowledge advances.
the fact that open debate is not allowed should be all the red flag anyone needs - it seems not enough people are aware of the fact that it was the CIA that started using 'conspiracy theorist' to shut down discussion of the Kennedy assassination. Those times when debate and dissent are openly vilified (think Iraq war and WMDs) almost invariably in hindsight come to be regarded as the times we were being fed the most lies. It sure would be nice in this case if we could short-circuit the hindsight period and get right to the fact that we are being lied to - a lot.
Where is the "Right Wing Authoritarianism"? Where Democrats are in power lock-downs were stricter, and lasted longer, mask and vaccine mandates are the norm, censorship of dissent is encouraged and enforced, and in-your-face lies from Democrats are a matter of routine. The Right-Wing boogey man is as much of a fantasy as is the "white supremacist" under every bed bullshit the Democrats have peddling for decades - get off it - LET'S GO BRANDON & Fuck Joe Biden
the fact that you can't have a discussion about this without being attacked as an "anti-vaxxer" and kicked off of social media is not an accident - the control over the narrative on this subject should be glaring and disturbing to anyone. Has there ever been a beneficial result in human history brought about by manipulation like this? It all comes down to avoiding truth if you reduce it to its simplest form - that should tell you everything you need to know about it.
Re : "Havana Syndrome" : "Derived from the Greek and Latin words for uterus, hysteria was an extremely common, catch-all medical diagnosis that more or less meant that the patient had a case of the Lady Crazies. But as the news has taught us, mass hysteria isn’t limited to people with uteri anymore." - Useless Etymology 😅
Tip start watching Dr John Campbell on YouTube, a retired emergency nurse educator in the UK that does nothing but reads hard data from other countries. He's excellent. You will then see what other countries are doing vs us it's shocking in many ways. You should interview him. His feelings and reviewing data on aspiration when giving the vaccines is very interesting. The other thing that's concerning is at the beginning of this pandemic novavax had a very promising vaccine out of the gate that would help solve Europe and poor nations vaccine crisis, but have routinely stumbled into production issues holding them up. Feels really fishy when you had India begging for help. Why hasn't a single gvt helped them? I can't stand Fauci. Even Dr Gottlieb is concerned about gain of function research. I do not understand why we can't tell the public Covid is endemic and mentally prepare the public that we must learn to live with this virus and promote health and wellness in combination with vaccination. Our public health response is a disaster. We're also having a full on mental health crisis partially due to not being truthful and preparing the public for the reality of this pandemic which is really endemic at this point. Apparently in NY we have wait lists for suicidal children getting psych beds at hospitals. I have such a large list of things you guys should cover regarding Covid and policy it's breathtaking.
The contrast between this persuasive conversation and the performative schmaltz of the podcast is striking. Don’t get me wrong, the combo of music, clips and emotive narration makes me want to throw something across the room, but didn’t that kind of impotent rage get us to where we are now?
It sure is something...

You can't debate 'Science'@TM with logic and rationale thought, silly conspiracist. If you don't trust the corporate criminals, you are crazy!

Matt, You could easily be a transwomen. I didn't even recognize you at first because of the female aura you gave off. Interesting...FYI.

Ivermectin virtually eliminated India's covid problem - a story you won't find anywhere in our media.

If news about vaccines is culled and curated - how can you trust your assessment/beliefs about them?

Matt: On your next Useful Idiots, you need to comment on the fat lip NY Magazine gave you in the article.
Katie - Can you move your camera? You look like you are falling out of the frame.
The best part of this episode was Dave Rubin's "Fauci Box" video.
