<div><p>Bob</p><p>We had a quite wide ranging virtual craic this morning. <br>
</p><p>Bob Anderson is reading about the founding fathers of the USA
and believes that they contributed to a system of democracy that
enhanced the British system all of which is being destroyed by
radical individualism. Still lots more to discuss on this issue.
I admit I was mistaken confusing Chris Hedges lawsuit against the
federal dissolution of Pasi Cometatus for Habeus Corpis. I guess
this raises the question is Habeus Corpis still alive and well in
the USA and Canada as I was arguing. <br>
</p><p>Alan Baker, Dr. Paul steered the conversation to the
democratization of thought that occurred with the Protestant
Reformation. Wish you were with us for this part of the
discussion. I also wanted to get your take on Vandana Shiva's
contribution to COP28 on regenerative agriculture.</p><p>We had some discussion on what I called Trump derangement
syndrome. My view is that people like Tucker and to a lesser
extent Trump have been demonized by the media and the truth of
their message is lost. The great thing about YouTube video's is
that viewing a pundit explaining their position gives some insight
into the integrity and sincerity of the individual. I believe
that this is what these two videos display , people of great
integrity giving an insightful message of our current context.
Real Journalism. Of course I am completely infatuated with the

Calls Out The Problem With Cornel West!</a> <br>
</p><p>Jimmy Dore and Tucker Carlson agree they have always had a
fondness for Cornel West — Jimmy for his politics and Tucker for
the time he and West spent traveling together. But they also admit
that despite Dr. West’s fiery rhetoric and focus on the
underprivileged and marginalized, he nevertheless reverts to
standard issue neoliberal ideology that reinforces the status quo
and props up the establishment</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/rYyTyXpdQRI?si=uZokvKNokeqF8Jeg">The
End of the World as We Know It with Whitney Webb</a></p><p>Whitney Webb is an independent investigative journalist who
founded Unlimited Hangout, which covers intelligence, tech,
surveillance and civil liberties. In this interview, we discuss
the importance of independent journalism, the challenges of media
manipulation and the rise of tyranny. We also talk about the risks
of AI, the influence of powerful figures like Elon Musk and the
need for public scrutiny, and the potential co-opting of Bitcoin
by powerful institutions<br>
