No Agenda-The Saturday Memo

 

Please Help End the Year Upbeat! If you want real analysis based on research and digging deeper into a story, No Agenda is your show. To keep it alive please support No Agenda any way you can. There are excellent ideas on the support page here. No Agenda 1517 The Media is Corrupt. No Way! First No Agenda Show of "Lucky" 2023

Happy 2023 Producers! There is not a lot to say about 2022 except that it will not be noted for much. So good riddance. Let’s wrap this year with appreciation for the No Agenda Show and what it brings to your household twice a week, every week. Show your thanks. The normal donations for tomorrow’s show based on the typical  numbers received at the time of the this writing are down by half and hopefully this gets supercharged by the Christmas spirit and the launch into the new year 2023. You have to assume people are snowed in or travelling. You can make it up with a new “lucky” 2023 random donation of any amount. Click here. Finish off one year and start anew with what looks to be a lucky 7 year. 2+0+2+3=7. Except in China, 7 is most people’s lucky number. Or simply become the Executive Producer of the News Years show. The show so seldom falls on New Years Day, (has it ever?), this a special “EP” for sure. It also makes you the first Executive Producer of lucky 2023.  This helps the show and will pay off for you as a legitimate credit and bullet point on your resume or LinkedIn profile. Click here for that. No Agenda only exists for you and on your behalf and only with your direct support. It’s quite a phenomenon and your support is appreciated. Be a Part of True Independent Media Tomorrow's Show While there are no real plans to do a serious retrospective of 2022 which broadcasts use as filler material, there will be discussion of repeating trends related to the medical establishment which looks more and more like a corrupt and untrustworthy system that needs congressional oversight. But will that even work? Your best bet is to be overly informed and make your own personal decisions and be leery of corrupted systems which include first and foremost the corporate media which has long since been co-opted by pharmaceutical advertising, bankers, and agenda-driven government authorities. So they are useless. Listening to recent clips of major TV personalities and supposed financial experts at CNBC fawning all over Sam Bankman-Fried as some sort of JP Morgan, should have made everyone sick. And, of course, nobody was fired or even reprimanded because, “So what? Who cares?” No Agenda cares. Please support this show today. It’s a good way to end the year and begin the year at the same time. Yes, we've been at it for a while. Bonus reading. The new "woke" comic book scene. Your No Agenda show covers and analyzes news without interference. This is because the show is not owned by a large corporation nor beholden to advertisers and is solely supported by you. There are no creepy advertisers or corporate or communist influencers telling us what to cover and how to slant things. Please contribute to support the show today. Click here and be part of the team. Sincerely, John C. Dvorak & Adam C. Curry PS Checks should be sent directly to the No Agenda Show, Box 339, El Cerrito CA 94530. Your support means everything. Hypocrite of the Week

Happy Holidays! Tomorrow will officially be the last show of 2022. This has not been a great year for anyone as the Covid narrative continues with new twists and turns. Then the World public (especially the Americans) are given a new lesson on Eastern European history thanks to the “Churchillian” V. Zelenskyy. Your job is to lap it all up as fact. The job of the No Agenda Show is to spice up the stew with real information which often contradicts the official story. The government cannot seem to be honest and hasn’t been since the Gulf of Tonkin in recent memory and probably before that for anyone that recalls. “Remember the Maine!n No Agenda only exists for you and on your behalf and only with your direct support.

Be a Part of True Independent Media Tomorrow's Show While you can expect some obvious year-end wraps, the show will be business-as-usual which means news deconstruction and analysis as usual. Unfortunately, that means coverage of the bomb cyclone and its aftermath. This means below-zero weather caused by global warming. The stooge commentators are collectively falling all over themselves with various “global warming” claims. You will hear how something “generational” was also two years ago. Symbol of Global Warming.
