No Mike Swanson this week. So keeping with the Tuesday tradition on the show of being highly informative, Chuck and Pearse packed as much news and information into two hours as they could
From Bill Barr on Capital Hill to Explosions in Iran, Porkins and Ochelli covered the wild world on sportsman-like conduct without touching upon organized sports.
This week I welcomed Matthew Alford to discuss all things Brexit. We kicked off the show by talking about Boris Johnson’s rise to power. Matt talked about Johnson’s public persona as an “inbred upperclass twit,” and how this has shaped his political career. Next, we dove head first into the ongoing drama of Brexit. Matt updated the listeners on the latest developments, including the announcement of a general election on December 12. Matt also analyzed recent polls, which suggest that Johnson and the Conservatives will most likely win and therefore push forward with his party’s plan to leave the EU. We talked about the wisdom of holding a second election and why Matt advocates for voting Labour. We also touched on complex issues like the border with Northern Ireland and how Brexit could unravel the delicate political architecture of the peace deal in Northern Ireland.
In the second hour we discussed Donald Trump’s false narrative that he is some sort of “peace president.” Matt focused on why so many in the conspiracy culture seem to latch onto this false narrative. We also spoke about Trump’s destructive policies in Venezuela and the deteriorating political situation in Haiti. Matt concluded the episode by talking about what some in the UK are overlooking (e.g., the UK as a major arms dealer) due to a strong focus on Brexit. We ended by talking about some of the positive initiatives such as climate change activism around the world, and various other protests during which individuals en mass speak truth to power.
Writer, comedian, and University of Bath teaching fellow, Matthew Alford joined me to discuss his latest book Union Union Jackboot: What Your Media and Professors Don’t Tell You About British Foreign Policy, which we co-authored with TJ Coles. We started off the conversation by discussing the unique structure of the book. Matt and I talked about the perception of British foreign policy we see today in the media. We touch on the brutal legacy the British Empire has had around the world, and take shots at some of the UK’s sacred cows like Winston Churchill. We also discussed why the media, Conservatives, and many in Labour despises Jeremy Corbyn. We talked about the way that Corbyn is perceived, many times incorrectly. Matt also talks about Brexit and why we should never feel sorry for Theresa May. Later we talked about the destructive role British foreign policy plays in seemly mundane affairs like clothing industry. We also touched on Britain’s role more recently in Sri Lanka and Nigeria.
Mike Swanson Author of The War State kicked off Tuesday telling us about his trip to Dallas for the recent JFK conferences.
In Wall Street, World Chuck and Mike discussed the market behavior and the interesting displays by those who lost in the NYC casino. Plus what did the elections tell us about 2020? Was the Blue Ripple exactly what Trump needed to have a handy Scapegoat for the next 2 years?
We also got an update on Mr. Swanson’s bets on political outcomes and the real world effect of the Trump policies best observed by the Art on No Deals and shady steals.
News items along the way and some hints that a long-standing MSM gatekeeper may have been disturbed by or friend Carmine were also part of the conversation
When next Tuesday happens Chuck suspects there will be a lot more action to cover in the game of Bears versus Bulls.
Blue Chips Orange Dip
In the second hour, Chuck asked Pearse Redmond if he ever heard the phrase, “feed me to the lesbians”. Apparently, this phrase is a normal part of the Millennial lexicon and a popular T-shirt. Chocolate is another option in its use but the phrase is as follows
Interjection
“dip me in honey and throw me to the lesbians”
(colloquial) Expression of surprise at something incredible.
Saudi Arabia and Russian Agent Orange Trump became the focus as Pearse and Chuck tried to make sense of the presser with Donny earlier in the day. Ivanka Trumps e-mail didn’t even get a minute on the show. Is the administration playing 1D Chess now?
The idea that arms deals and oil prices would dictate policy in this country being spoken aloud is actually refreshing. Now consider if the dishonest idiot in the office can actually play the complex game of diplomacy required to accomplish anything along those lines.
Pakistan and the failing War of Terror rounded out the discussion. Arms dealers gotta deal yo. President Disputes logic and reason at all times should be the headline.
CIA Conclusion, Saudi Crown Prince Involvement In Murder, but don’t ask the guy who did the glowing magic orb eight ball dance about it. Battling The “Deep State” is actually being the best weapon of mass distraction ever.
This week Chuck Ochelli joins me to discuss geopolitics and the problems of the world. We start off discussing the recent Singapore Summit between North Korea and the US. Chuck and I both offer our opinions and analysis of the “deal” that is being hammered out by Trump. We talk about the realities of what is actually being presented, and discuss the larger context of what this may mean for the Korean Peninsula.
In the second hour Chuck and I branch off and talk about Jeff Sessions reversal of a court ruling granting asylum to immigrants fleeing domestic violence and violence from non-state actors. We also talk about the genocide in Yemen, which could see 10 million people starve to death. Chuck and I close out the show by talking about the lack of morality and respect for human life that many here in America seem to have.

The Host of Porkins Policy Radio joins us for the first hour where North Korea Fire and Fury The Likes of Which The World has never seen is discussed. One insane regime to another , we compare the Trumpster to K.J. Un.
Aaron Franz and I joined Tom Secker for a roundtable discussion on the film Wrong is Right; a 1982 political conspiracy thriller/black comedy. This is without a doubt one of the most bizarre movies I have ever watched. We discuss the obvious intelligence/military connections, as well as the prophetic memes and terrifyingly accurate predictive programing. We also break down the meaning and message behind the film. This was an extremely fun conversation but I would suggest that you watch Wrong is Right first.
A recent report by the British Brainwashing Corporation (BBC) about the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia purchasing nuclear weapons from Pakistan could be nothing more than propaganda. This report comes on the heals of supposedly productive talks between Iran and west over the whole nuclear issue. The Saudis have been vociferously protesting this warming of relations. Ergo, the timing of this report is suspect. Even more suspect is the source for this information. It comes from the ever unreliable Israeli intelligence community. Israel and Saudi Arabia have found much in common when it comes to the prospect of Iran securing nuclear weapons, which of course there is no real evidence for. This could all be nothing more than bluster and propaganda directed at the United States in an effort to persuade them to take a more aggressive stance towards Iran. If you don’t do what we like, then we will buy nukes from the Pakistanis, thus starting the nuclear arms race in the Middle East. The most ironic part of this whole story is that the source of Saudi Arabia’s nukes. They are allegedly coming from Pakistan. As FBI whistle blower Sibel Edmonds has noted, Pakistan acquired nuclear technology from various US officials, who were engaged in an illegal nuclear secrets trade deal with various actors in Pakistan.
So, we sell nuclear secrets to the Pakistanis, who in turn sell nuclear weapons to the Saudi’s, and Iran is still the enemy. That is how our current corrupt system works.
The newly elected President of Iran Hassan Rouhani addressed the UN general assembly today. In his speech he laid out his vision for Iran and it’s tenuous relationship with the United States. While his speech talked about peace, negotiations, an ending to the brutal sanctions imposed on his country and his further insistence (backed up by numerous reports) that Iran is not and never was attempting to develop nuclear weapons, Netanyahu and his cadre of psychotic Zionist warmongers were non too pleased. Netanyhu proclaimed to all that would hear him that Rouhani is nothing but a liar. His “charm offensive” is all a rouse to ingratiate himself with the political establishment in the West, while continuing to build nuclear bombs; of course so he and the other “mad mullahs” can destroy the world and procreate with virgins in the after life. If this all sounds familiar its because its the same load of shit that Netanyahu always says. You see it really doesn’t matter whom the Iranian people elect for president. If it’s not a subservient dog that licks the boots of US and Israeli leaders then it must mean that he is hell bent on bringing about a second Holocaust.
Netanyahu in fact loved Ahmadinejad. With Ahmadinejad he had a lose cannon who often angered the globalists. Ahmadinejad was the perfect tool for the Israelis to use to prove to the world that Iran was full of nut jobs whose sole purpose in life was to kill Israelis. Rouhani on the other hand is smart, diplomatic, and yes charming. Rouhani represents not just a new moderate leader in Iran, but a completely new policy with in the Islamic Republic. The “mad mullahs” are not mad enough to have their nation and people obliterated by the US and Israeli war machine. Hence why they backed Rouhani. Netanyhu who is actually hell bent on a messianic crusade to rid the world of all the Muslims who are not slaves to the Israeli war machine has lost his best friend. He no longer has his punching bag. So what does he do? He simply states that Rouhani is a fraud. A fraud that must feel the destructive force of the US/Israeli war machine. The “all options on the table” approach that the Unites States has taken can roughly be translated to: still keeping the option of using a nuclear weapon on Iran . As with the fake peace negations Israel conducts with the fake Palestinian government, the issue over Iran is not about curbing nuclear weapons, it is about destroying independent nations that challenge Israel and their imperial objectives in the Middle East.
Please keep in mind that the only nation in the Middle East that actually has nuclear weapons is Israel. While Netanyhu and the other racist Zionist war criminals were foaming at the mouth over Iran, 51 nations at the UN voted to protect Israel from having to join the Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty. A treaty I may add that Iran is a signatory to. The actor who is really working in bad faith and conspiring to commit brutal war are the psychopaths that rule Israel. Rather than give peace a chance, and perhaps work toward a some what stable relationship, Netanayhu and a host of other psychopaths prefers to obliterate the nation and people of Iran.
