00:00:00.000 This Week in Feminism. 1.00
00:00:20.000 A I got a job, and then I didn't show up.
00:00:29.000 No, I don't Uh...
00:00:33.000 Uh...
00:00:35.000 Driverstop.com! 0.97
00:00:46.000 You're a strange animal, that's what I know. You're a strange animal, I got the ball. I'm in a speeding test. 0.99
00:01:12.000 Yep, we're still alive.
00:01:21.000 I don't need to go under my desk.
00:01:23.000 Perfect.
00:01:24.000 No nukes.
00:01:24.000 Just making sure, because I don't know if you know this, but when there's a nuclear fallout, this solid block of pine, that's all this guy needs.
00:01:33.000 And a mask.
00:01:34.000 Yes.
00:01:36.000 Well, we need an N95 mask.
00:01:38.000 Correct.
00:01:38.000 Yes.
00:01:39.000 An N95 mask because of the uranium particulates.
00:01:42.000 That's the primary concern there.
00:01:43.000 We're going to be talking about potential World War III, but before that, we'll also be talking about today, look, this doesn't exist in a bubble, Russia and Ukraine.
00:01:51.000 I think a lot of people are missing not only how this affects you, but American, how domestic policy here, specifically domestic energy policy, regardless of how you feel about Native Americans or climate justice, how it affects the rest of the world, the rest of the free world and the rest of, by the way, the oppressed third world.
00:02:08.000 One of the greatest things the United States can do for people, for example, in places like India or places anywhere, pick anywhere in South America, developing countries, is use our own resources, is access our own energy production.
00:02:21.000 Not only that, but it's also pretty important that the United States dollars uses the benchmark, and that could go away soon, and that could affect everybody.
00:02:28.000 So before you're eager to go off to war, and this is what we see from the left and the right on the media today, let's ask ourselves right now, it's hard to get the numbers, thousands of people dead in the Ukraine, terrible, your heart goes out to them.
00:02:38.000 Do you want that number to be a billion?
00:02:40.000 That's the risk reward that we're looking at.
00:02:44.000 Not to mention the deaths from skyrocketing energy prices.
00:02:47.000 But before I go on to any of that, this is a live show, Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.
00:02:52.000 Eastern.
00:02:52.000 If I don't tell you that we are not doing a show, that means we're still doing a show.
00:02:56.000 We're just not on YouTube.
00:02:57.000 So you can watch it on Rumble.
00:02:59.000 Or you can join MugClub.
00:03:00.000 LettersCarter.com slash MugClub.
00:03:01.000 We'll be doing an additional 45 minutes today discussing vigilantism as it relates to pedophiles.
00:03:07.000 Not advocating, exactly.
00:03:09.000 Not at all.
00:03:11.000 But kind of advocating.
00:03:12.000 But not advocating.
00:03:13.000 Not advocating.
00:03:14.000 Not advocating.
00:03:15.000 No, no, no, no.
00:03:16.000 That's right.
00:03:16.000 We want the pedophiles to be set free with no bail required.
00:03:19.000 And we want the pedophile vigilantes to be jailed with no bail allowed.
00:03:24.000 So my question to you, first off, how pissed off are you about gas prices? 0.99
00:03:30.000 Second, if someone molested your child, would you shoot them? 0.84
00:03:34.000 If you were on the jury, would you find the man guilty who tried to shoot him? 0.70
00:03:38.000 That's just teaser.
00:03:39.000 Questions.
00:03:39.000 Just questions.
00:03:40.000 I certainly wouldn't dump several gallons or $38 worth of gas on them.
00:03:44.000 No, you would not.
00:03:47.000 Kerosene is cheaper at this point, I think.
00:03:48.000 It is.
00:03:48.000 I don't know exactly.
00:03:49.000 Yeah.
00:03:49.000 Zippo fluid is cheaper.
00:03:50.000 Yes, Zippo fluid.
00:03:51.000 I think Dave's a little bit low, but first, before I bring in Mr. Landau, we have Gerald A. How are you, sir?
00:03:56.000 I'm well.
00:03:56.000 How are you, sir?
00:03:57.000 I know you're fired up about Iran.
00:03:59.000 Oh, well, just a little bit.
00:04:00.000 All of the international stuff is, like, really important to me.
00:04:03.000 It's kind of in my wheelhouse.
00:04:04.000 Yeah.
00:04:04.000 I love it when we get back into bed with terrorists for oil when we can just do it ourselves.
00:04:08.000 Oh, that's foreshadowing!
00:04:10.000 You Steinbeck, you.
00:04:11.000 I know.
00:04:11.000 And then we have him here.
00:04:13.000 You know him.
00:04:13.000 You love him.
00:04:13.000 You can follow him on Twitter at Landau Dave.
00:04:15.000 Dave Landau, how are you, sir?
00:04:16.000 Ahoy, and you?
00:04:18.000 I'm fine.
00:04:19.000 You look like you're a 90s skateboarder.
00:04:21.000 I took my hat off, and everybody's like, look at that hat hair.
00:04:24.000 And I said, it's magnificent, so I'm rocking it today.
00:04:26.000 You look like a 90s bully, like, yeah, punk, you want to go?
00:04:30.000 Take it. 0.94
00:04:31.000 Yeah.
00:04:31.000 Straight out of Paperboy.
00:04:32.000 Yeah, boy.
00:04:33.000 I know, right? 1.00
00:04:34.000 I bet you're gay. 1.00
00:04:36.000 You mean Paperboy the Canadian Rapper? 0.99
00:04:38.000 No, no, I meant the game.
00:04:39.000 No, that's Drake, the half-Jew from Westmount who couldn't outrun the school shooter in Degrassi. 0.83
00:04:44.000 Ooh, he's a tough hooligan, that Drake.
00:04:47.000 Old Wheels McCaffrey.
00:04:48.000 Yes.
00:04:51.000 Very different, everyone else is bragging about their wheels, he's bragging about his actual wheels.
00:04:55.000 Well, you only have to buy one pair of cool shoes.
00:04:58.000 Right.
00:04:59.000 And then as he gets older, he's bragging about his tennis balls.
00:05:01.000 Yep.
00:05:02.000 Uh, bling bling.
00:05:04.000 Before we move on to that, it's also, by the way, International Women's Day, which is thrilling.
00:05:07.000 Yeah!
00:05:08.000 Yeah?
00:05:09.000 Do they celebrate that in Saudi Arabia?
00:05:11.000 They beat you harder.
00:05:13.000 Yes.
00:05:13.000 You drive less.
00:05:15.000 But celebrating women, before we move on to that, we do need to celebrate the beautiful and brave women here in the United States.
00:05:21.000 I'm not even sure whose side this lady is on exactly, but she seems primarily concerned with two things as she clearly becomes, or displays, I shouldn't say become because she was already certifiable long before this, displays her certifiable insanity. 1.00
00:05:38.000 Two things, see if you can catch them.
00:05:43.000 Mmm.
00:05:43.000 You're what?
00:05:45.000 Take a guess. 1.00
00:05:46.000 My pussy matters! 1.00
00:05:48.000 Your what? 1.00
00:05:49.000 Have a great time, man!
00:05:50.000 Black lives matter!
00:05:50.000 Take a guess.
00:05:52.000 My pussy matters! 1.00
00:05:54.000 Again, huh? 1.00
00:05:55.000 You make no sense. What is wrong with you?
00:05:57.000 My dick don't matter, but her fuc- her fucking pussy does! 1.00
00:06:00.000 She dropped that! 1.00
00:06:03.000 I love how she dropped it.
00:06:03.000 Like the Hobgoblin in Spider-Man 3.
00:06:06.000 My pussy matters, Toby. 1.00
00:06:08.000 She's wrong. 1.00
00:06:09.000 Nobody wants that at all.
00:06:10.000 No, certainly not the Black Lives she's championing. 0.99
00:06:12.000 No, it doesn't matter at all.
00:06:13.000 They'll be like, Black Lives Matter! 0.99
00:06:14.000 Yeah, mommy! 1.00
00:06:16.000 No, we don't want that.
00:06:18.000 Was that thing in the clearance bin?
00:06:21.000 Don't tie them together.
00:06:22.000 Don't make us guilty by association with that clam.
00:06:25.000 What was she throwing? 0.98
00:06:27.000 I don't know.
00:06:27.000 She must have broken at least $12 worth of merchandise.
00:06:30.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:06:31.000 She's well under the $999 minimum. 0.60
00:06:33.000 Easily.
00:06:33.000 Well, I thought you could steal it.
00:06:34.000 I didn't think you could just smash it.
00:06:36.000 Look, I don't understand the technicality, but at that point, once you grab it, it's yours.
00:06:42.000 You do whatever you want, make whatever claims you want.
00:06:43.000 Yeah, I think that's how it works.
00:06:45.000 Was she bowling? 0.50
00:06:45.000 What were those? 0.50
00:06:47.000 Were those pumpkin candles?
00:06:48.000 That's what I couldn't tell.
00:06:49.000 I think they were candles.
00:06:50.000 She's offended by candles.
00:06:51.000 That's fine.
00:06:51.000 She just went to the clearance rack.
00:06:52.000 She's like, I want to commit a felony here, but I don't want to vandalize the in-season candles.
00:06:57.000 Let's stay away from the St.
00:06:58.000 Patrick's Day.
00:06:59.000 Let me grab the pumpkin and Valentine's Day candles. 0.98
00:07:01.000 Well, she was looking for the Gwyneth Paltrow vagina candle to fool somebody she was having over later. 0.99
00:07:06.000 Yes! 0.97
00:07:07.000 And it's completely out of style.
00:07:08.000 Yeah, she tried to light that candle, wafting like a pie in Yogi Bear. 0.83
00:07:12.000 She thought all the black guys were like... No, no. 0.69
00:07:15.000 Not even on the windowsill. 0.98
00:07:19.000 The fish gotcha! 0.95
00:07:21.000 Alright, so it is International Women's Day.
00:07:24.000 It's International Women's Day.
00:07:24.000 You know this?
00:07:25.000 It is, yeah.
00:07:25.000 Fantastic.
00:07:26.000 That's why we led with that.
00:07:27.000 Huh.
00:07:28.000 Uh, and uh, I don't know if you know this, but in previous years, uh, women have actually, they went on strike. 1.00
00:07:32.000 I don't know if they're doing that this year.
00:07:33.000 They did it last year, the year before that, where they went on strike to show people what a world without women would look like. 0.99
00:07:38.000 Remember that?
00:07:39.000 Remember that last year?
00:07:39.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:07:40.000 And um, shocking turn of events, the Dow Jones was up 500 points, HR complaints were at an all-time low, traffic was smoother than ever before, everyone was using their turn signals.
00:07:48.000 Crazy.
00:07:49.000 It's amazing.
00:07:49.000 So let it never be said that you cannot make a difference, but there were some complications.
00:07:54.000 there were some still primary issues where men didn't realize how good they had it.
00:07:59.000 Slightly dry.
00:08:18.000 We need that lady with the candles. 1.00
00:08:20.000 Be careful what you ask for.
00:08:21.000 Okay?
00:08:22.000 You just might get it.
00:08:23.000 When's the International Men's Day?
00:08:24.000 I'm against all of these days.
00:08:26.000 Uh, it's called Gay Pride Month. 0.90
00:08:27.000 No, no, no, no, no.
00:08:28.000 When's Straight Pride Month? 0.98
00:08:29.000 Yeah, there is no Straight Pride Month.
00:08:30.000 That's the problem.
00:08:31.000 It's like, women have their women's only gyms, curves. 1.00
00:08:34.000 If guys do it, it just becomes a bathhouse with Fauci. 1.00
00:08:37.000 Guys have man tits. 1.00
00:08:39.000 It's not a bad gym. 1.00
00:08:40.000 Right.
00:08:40.000 But you just don't want to be seen walking in.
00:08:42.000 No.
00:08:42.000 You also don't want to see them freeing the nipple.
00:08:44.000 Ah, yes.
00:08:45.000 That's dangerous.
00:08:46.000 Daddy jiggles. 0.98
00:08:47.000 Yeah.
00:08:47.000 Free the hairy areola that's swollen from years of xenoestrogens and sodium.
00:08:54.000 Ugh, boy.
00:08:54.000 A lot of salt.
00:08:55.000 Well, International Women's Day.
00:08:56.000 I don't know how we celebrate it.
00:08:58.000 Oh, no, that's right.
00:08:59.000 We don't.
00:08:59.000 So.
00:09:01.000 I do want to celebrate some men.
00:09:04.000 Uh, Cain Velasquez is a UFC fighter.
00:09:05.000 Now, I want to be clear, we're going to have to talk about this on Mug Club today, so if you are here on YouTube, I recommend.
00:09:10.000 And nothing would make me happier than more of you to go over to Rumble and Mug Club.
00:09:13.000 Unfortunately, we have to be here on YouTube.
00:09:15.000 They've been messing with our channel for a while.
00:09:16.000 We know that we don't make a dime on YouTube, so please consider doing that.
00:09:19.000 We can't talk about this topic.
00:09:21.000 Yeah.
00:09:21.000 Because it's controversial to get the warm fuzzies for a man who tries to shoot The molester of his child.
00:09:29.000 Yeah.
00:09:30.000 So we have to be careful.
00:09:31.000 We have to tread carefully.
00:09:32.000 It reminds me of that song, you know, if you're loving who's wrong, I don't want to be right.
00:09:36.000 Well, we're blaming Hollywood.
00:09:39.000 Where's Tipper Gore when you need her? 1.00
00:09:41.000 Well, I put in stickers.
00:09:43.000 You're going to put it on for Run DMC and not that shh?
00:09:45.000 So, I think you have too much gain on my microphone.
00:09:47.000 Are you hearing that?
00:09:48.000 It's kind of clipping me a little bit or a little bit too much compression.
00:09:52.000 Cain Velasquez.
00:09:53.000 Are you good there, Keegan?
00:09:54.000 Yeah, it's raining pretty heavily.
00:09:55.000 Oh, is that what's happening?
00:09:56.000 It's raining.
00:09:57.000 Sorry, it's storming here.
00:09:58.000 Who'd have thought that in Texas in spring?
00:09:59.000 Mostly men.
00:10:00.000 So, Cain Velasquez in the UFC, he's the ex-UFC heavyweight champion.
00:10:05.000 And this is a story that's been making the rounds.
00:10:06.000 I want to be clear, I knew about this last week, and I didn't want to discuss it publicly because I did have a little bit of an inside lane, and now some of this information is publicly available.
00:10:16.000 Not all of it.
00:10:17.000 I will tell you, the more information that is going to be made available, The worst it's going to be, not for Cain, but for the pedophile in question.
00:10:27.000 And I do think that this creates an existential question for a lot of people.
00:10:30.000 I know that we live in a society with laws and we don't tolerate vigilantism, but we also live in a modern society where unfortunately, for the first time ever in human history, child sex offenders aren't killed on sight.
00:10:43.000 They're barely punished.
00:10:44.000 They're barely punished! 0.99
00:10:45.000 And we'll get into that specifically where in this case the child sex offender was let out with no bail required and the father who tried to take out the pedophilic trash was put in jail with no bail allowed. 0.98
00:10:57.000 So let me just, I think we have a clip, Cain Velasquez, the man whose son, I'll give you the quick rundown, his son was molested at a daycare. 0.96
00:11:06.000 Molested by a guy who didn't even work at the daycare.
00:11:09.000 It was a daycare and a house.
00:11:10.000 Allegedly 100 times.
00:11:12.000 We don't know how many other victims had been assaulted by this man.
00:11:17.000 And what happened was he was taken and he was booked, right?
00:11:20.000 He was charged.
00:11:20.000 And then they said you're going to go home on house arrest against the advice of the DA who said this person's a danger.
00:11:25.000 This person was molested many times.
00:11:26.000 Sexually assaulted children many times. 0.73
00:11:29.000 And they were going to get his ankle bracelet. 0.95
00:11:30.000 This dad Whose child was effectively raped, sexually assaulted, did take justice into his own hands, chased the car down, and fired into the car.
00:11:39.000 Ended up hitting the dad by non-fatal wounds.
00:11:41.000 That's the story.
00:11:42.000 There's more to it, which we'll discuss on MugClub.
00:11:44.000 But here's a video of Cain Velasquez appearing in court where he's being denied bail on attempted murder charges in California.
00:11:51.000 Who could have guessed?
00:11:51.000 San Jose, a judge denied bail for Velazquez, who's been charged with attempted murder,
00:11:56.000 assault, and shooting at an occupied vehicle.
00:11:59.000 Police say Velazquez tried to shoot Harry Galarte, who's been charged with molesting
00:12:02.000 Velazquez's four-year-old brother at a daycare owned by Galarte's mother.
00:12:07.000 Authorities say Velazquez also chased Galarte and his parents at high speed from Morgan
00:12:11.000 Hill to South San Jose before ramming their truck twice and again firing shots at them.
00:12:16.000 Two bullets hit Galarte's stepfather, who is now recovering.
00:12:19.000 The shooting and chase happened three days after a different judge freed Galarte from custody on supervised release over the DA's objection.
00:12:26.000 That looks like it could be Joseph Rosenbaum's doppelganger.
00:12:29.000 To be fair, King Lester's was following instructions.
00:12:31.000 He was repeatedly screaming, shoot me inward, shoot me inward. 0.99
00:12:34.000 It's the catchphrase of pedophiles. 0.99
00:12:35.000 Don't say it if you don't want it.
00:12:37.000 I mean, careful what you wish for.
00:12:39.000 Exactly.
00:12:40.000 We never say chase somebody down and shoot them.
00:12:41.000 Don't do that. 0.87
00:12:42.000 It's the old story of the pedophile monkey paw.
00:12:45.000 Or the map.
00:12:47.000 I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map!
00:12:54.000 Dora's gonna be a stripper. 1.00
00:12:57.000 It makes sense that there's a revolving door for a pedophile. 0.98
00:13:00.000 He is the one that has to stay behind bars.
00:13:02.000 That's wonderful.
00:13:03.000 And look, can you comment below, before we go to Mug Club, there's a hashtag Free Cain is going on right now and his legal defense fund has been taken down.
00:13:10.000 Can we at least all find common ground that the dad, who in a moment of, I can only imagine with two small children, babies, toddlers, whatever the appropriate age term is, I don't really know.
00:13:20.000 I can only imagine the rage.
00:13:21.000 If someone can plea temporary insanity, committing a murder against innocent people, can you not allow for temporary insanity or at least a temper flare-up when the guy finds out that his kid has been molested 100 times and that the guy is getting off scot-free at that point?
00:13:38.000 At least until he's convicted?
00:13:40.000 I mean, the whole point, right, where you deny bail, what they're doing with Cain Velasquez, is you deny bail to someone who's a danger to society at large.
00:13:46.000 Like someone who molests a kid a hundred times!
00:13:46.000 Right.
00:13:49.000 California sees this guy!
00:13:51.000 As a dangerous society at large. 0.97
00:13:52.000 The only person, the only car he ever fired upon was a car carrying a pedophile.
00:13:57.000 That's true.
00:13:57.000 If there are more pedophiles around, maybe he's a danger, but I don't know.
00:14:00.000 Not nobody that molested his child.
00:14:00.000 Yeah.
00:14:02.000 Yeah, I mean, he's the most dangerous guy at a NAMMWA convention.
00:14:05.000 Yes, exactly.
00:14:06.000 Yeah, well, Disney's there.
00:14:08.000 They don't want to put everyone in jail.
00:14:09.000 No, exactly.
00:14:10.000 That's a good point.
00:14:11.000 So, uh, hashtag FreeKane, and if you guys want to show him some, uh...
00:14:15.000 I can't say show him some support. 0.92
00:14:16.000 Yeah, if you guys want to show this man some support, but at least he's not the monster that the pedophile is.
00:14:21.000 Can we all find common ground on that?
00:14:24.000 That a dad who commits an act of violence against someone who sexually assaulted his child is not the same kind of a monster as the man who committed the grossest act of evil that I can imagine?
00:14:33.000 Does it get much more evil than that?
00:14:34.000 No.
00:14:35.000 No, it actually doesn't.
00:14:36.000 It's worse than murder, but it's treated as nothing.
00:14:39.000 Right.
00:14:40.000 That's what I don't understand about our society right now.
00:14:42.000 Yeah.
00:14:43.000 We'll talk about that.
00:14:44.000 Yeah, we should wait.
00:14:45.000 I would never say that I wish he was a better shot.
00:14:47.000 No, I would never.
00:14:48.000 And I would never say that, you know what, this guy was a UFC heavyweight champion.
00:14:48.000 Never.
00:14:51.000 Everyone would be better off if he'd have dragged him from the car and beaten him with his fists. 0.72
00:14:56.000 Well, I'm just saying. 0.97
00:14:57.000 And feet.
00:14:57.000 Not that you should.
00:14:58.000 He could have submitted him.
00:15:00.000 Why?
00:15:01.000 That's not fun.
00:15:03.000 You'd submit your drunken uncle at a cookout. 0.95
00:15:05.000 You don't submit a pedophile. 0.77
00:15:07.000 We'll talk about it later.
00:15:08.000 You throw some elbows because you don't even honor the unified rules.
00:15:12.000 How many cookouts have you ruined?
00:15:15.000 My uncle ruined them.
00:15:16.000 Well, you know.
00:15:17.000 I'm not an uncle yet.
00:15:19.000 You're not?
00:15:19.000 No, I'm not.
00:15:20.000 I said it with my burgered medium!
00:15:22.000 You could be an honorary uncle.
00:15:24.000 I could be an honorary uncle, but I'm not.
00:15:26.000 Now, by the way, also letterfeder.com slash tour to go see us live.
00:15:31.000 Colorado Springs June 18th is sold out, but We'll probably be adding a show.
00:15:36.000 We're working with the venue right now, Tulsa, Oklahoma, May 14th.
00:15:39.000 Me and Dave on tour, stand-up, and also some sketch comedy, some improv comedy, but we'll be doing some stand-up.
00:15:45.000 Speaking of performing, the performance arts, Kanye West.
00:15:49.000 So he's been in some hot water, always, and more recently because of his music videos, where people were upset that it seems like, and again, it's art, so not everything is literal, But people were upset, this was trending this weekend, that he allegedly was burying, killing Pete Davidson in the video.
00:16:10.000 Now, I have two minds about this, I'm not entirely sure.
00:16:12.000 Here's a clip from the video that you've likely seen.
00:16:33.000 That's the same motorcycle on which he was straddled.
00:16:35.000 That's true.
00:16:37.000 The song was equally bad.
00:16:40.000 Now to be fair, I don't really know.
00:16:41.000 That's not necessarily about Pete Davidson.
00:16:43.000 They claim that he was burying Pete Davidson because Pete Davidson is dating Kim Kardashian.
00:16:47.000 Also, hip-hop is now sampling hip-hop.
00:16:49.000 Right.
00:16:51.000 It used to be like you were grabbing from the spinners, you were grabbing from the Temptations, now it's like Kanye is sampling Jay-Z who's sampling Kanye.
00:16:58.000 It's insane.
00:16:59.000 It's the inception of low-grade hip-hop.
00:17:01.000 It's really something.
00:17:04.000 It's Annie, it's Jay-Z, and it's Kanye.
00:17:08.000 To be fair though, If you actually look at, and again, I understand art needs to be given permission to explore, explore the space!
00:17:17.000 That being said, if you look at the extended version, some people would argue that it's, I mean, as far as it relates to killing Pete Davidson, that it's pretty cut and dry.
00:17:25.000 Ryan we actually have the exclusive that hasn't been released yet.
00:17:39.000 All I wanna do is dig a hole for Pete Davidson.
00:17:43.000 Not zealous, that's Davidson. 0.70
00:17:45.000 Yeah, talkin' bout killin' Davidson.
00:17:47.000 Literally, not figuratively, Davidson. 0.99
00:17:50.000 Yeah, literally, not figuratively, I wanna kill Pete Davidson. 1.00
00:17:53.000 Put him on a table. 1.00
00:17:55.000 Kill him, literally, because I'm able. 1.00
00:17:58.000 I don't know. 1.00
00:18:13.000 I'm on the fence.
00:18:14.000 Yeah, he's an artist, and who am I to interpret the lyrics?
00:18:17.000 Oh, come on, man.
00:18:18.000 It's a song about Pete Davidson.
00:18:19.000 Well, you're going to take all art literally now?
00:18:21.000 It's a song about Pete Davidson.
00:18:23.000 I don't know.
00:18:24.000 He didn't even name Pete Davidson more than four or five times.
00:18:27.000 Yeah.
00:18:28.000 And by the way, Pete Davidson could be figurative.
00:18:30.000 I mean, he says it's not figurative, but that's art as well.
00:18:33.000 He could be saying it's like when people say literally and they don't mean literally.
00:18:36.000 Yeah, they do mean literally.
00:18:38.000 He was holding a head of Pete Davidson.
00:18:40.000 He was holding a claymation head that resembled... bore a vague resemblance, Dave? 0.79
00:18:45.000 Well, it was striking.
00:18:47.000 It was striking.
00:18:47.000 Striking.
00:18:48.000 It was a claymation Pete Davidson, but I'm not the one to interpret his art.
00:18:52.000 Maybe he was holding his head to comfort him, even though it was severed.
00:18:56.000 He could have been cradling his head.
00:18:57.000 Yes. 0.92
00:18:58.000 And killing could mean... 0.94
00:19:00.000 Yeah.
00:19:00.000 Cuddling.
00:19:01.000 The point is, who are we to tell Kanye what his art means to him?
00:19:04.000 Yeah, I don't think, I don't, I think this is clearly overblown and I wouldn't have him checked out for psychological needs.
00:19:11.000 No, not at all.
00:19:12.000 He's never been somebody who thought he was Christ.
00:19:14.000 No.
00:19:14.000 No, I was going to say he's also Jesus, but yeah.
00:19:18.000 Well, Yeezus.
00:19:19.000 Yeezus.
00:19:19.000 Which I'm not sure if that's just.
00:19:20.000 I don't fully understand it either because then there's Yeezus and then the shoes are Yeezy.
00:19:24.000 Yeah.
00:19:25.000 Yeah.
00:19:25.000 It's a very expensive.
00:19:27.000 But his life was never easy, but it was Yeezy.
00:19:29.000 Yeah, and then he wants to hear Jesus in the clubs.
00:19:33.000 Yeah.
00:19:33.000 The point is, he's a good Christian man who would never kill Pete Davidson.
00:19:36.000 Correct.
00:19:37.000 So, you know what?
00:19:38.000 Shame on you.
00:19:38.000 Hey, hey Gerald.
00:19:40.000 What?
00:19:40.000 I don't know, do you see this?
00:19:41.000 The plank in his eye?
00:19:41.000 What?
00:19:43.000 Still trying to get that speck out of Yeezy's?
00:19:46.000 Oh, it's called Judgment.
00:19:47.000 Murder out of Yeezy. 1.00
00:19:48.000 Judgmental son of a bitch. 0.99
00:19:51.000 Speaking of performance art, you can follow the podcast if you're subscribed here on YouTube or on audio. 0.99
00:19:56.000 Apple, Spotify, as long as they allow us, Android, all that stuff.
00:20:00.000 Used to be called iTunes when I was a kid.
00:20:01.000 Really?
00:20:03.000 Now it's time for our first fact check of the day.
00:20:05.000 Jen Psaki, I believe this was yesterday, maybe it was the day before, who knows at this point, she was responding to Mr. Chinless Pete Doocy, saying that the high gas prices are actually the fault of Vladimir Putin.
00:20:18.000 It sounds like you guys are blaming Putin for the increase in gas prices recently, but weren't gas prices going up anyway because of post-pandemic supply chain issues?
00:20:31.000 Well, I think there's no question that as we have seen outside analysts have conveyed this as well.
00:20:36.000 The increase in the anticipated continued increase, which is I think what some of your colleagues were asking about, that that is a direct result of the invasion of Ukraine.
00:20:46.000 And also there was an anticipation of that.
00:20:49.000 That was factored in as gas prices have gone up.
00:20:54.000 Oh, so you were anticipating the surge in gas prices because of Russia and the Ukraine, and the way you anticipated it was by forcing the prices of gas prices to raise?
00:21:06.000 I just want to make sure I'm understanding this.
00:21:08.000 She was anticipating it so gas prices went up well before this.
00:21:11.000 Right.
00:21:12.000 Oh, so she thought there was going to be a bloodbath, so they anticipated the gas prices instead of stopping the bloodbath?
00:21:17.000 She's like a ginger oracle. 0.99
00:21:20.000 The Spartans consulted her before Thermoply.
00:21:23.000 I started talking to Neo earlier today.
00:21:25.000 I think it's Thermopoly.
00:21:26.000 Right.
00:21:27.000 What did I say?
00:21:27.000 Thermoply.
00:21:28.000 Thermoply.
00:21:30.000 I don't care.
00:21:31.000 What am I thinking?
00:21:32.000 I'm thinking of all clad Thermaply pots and pans.
00:21:34.000 I just got a new set with the copper and the aluminum.
00:21:38.000 That heats up quickly.
00:21:40.000 Lifetime warranty.
00:21:41.000 They're not a sponsor at all.
00:21:42.000 I'm just very thrilled about my new pots and pans.
00:21:44.000 That's not a joke.
00:21:45.000 All clad.
00:21:46.000 It's unbelievable how much better.
00:21:48.000 By the way, people out there, if you don't know the difference between buy your pots and pans once and buy right.
00:21:53.000 It makes all the difference in the world.
00:21:55.000 I have no idea how much non-stick cancerous coating I've been swallowing over the years.
00:22:02.000 Well, most of it.
00:22:03.000 Better than paying too much for gas.
00:22:04.000 So, let's get to this.
00:22:06.000 The gas prices.
00:22:07.000 Okay, sure, they've surged obviously now because we understand the necessity.
00:22:12.000 Of reducing our dependence on foreign oil.
00:22:13.000 We get that.
00:22:14.000 Prices have gone up significantly since the crisis.
00:22:17.000 But they were going up for a long time.
00:22:20.000 Well, for a long time.
00:22:20.000 I mean, since about January 2021.
00:22:23.000 Roughly.
00:22:23.000 Something like that.
00:22:24.000 Yeah.
00:22:24.000 Roughly.
00:22:25.000 End of January-ish.
00:22:26.000 End of January-ish ballpark figures.
00:22:28.000 Someone closed the pipe.
00:22:29.000 I don't know.
00:22:29.000 Yeah.
00:22:30.000 I have no idea.
00:22:31.000 So when Biden took office 14 months ago, former Vice President Joe Biden, the national average gas price was $2.39 a gallon.
00:22:38.000 February 7th, prior That's more than a dollar!
00:22:42.000 himself Putin invading Ukraine the national average was 344 that's more than a dollar
00:22:47.000 that's a lot of cents I don't know if you know how many cents are in a dollar
00:22:53.000 It's about a hundred.
00:22:54.000 I'll have to consult the Oracles before Thermaply.
00:22:57.000 For a Sensko, she don't make any. 1.00
00:22:59.000 And you know what?
00:23:00.000 The dollars don't make cents.
00:23:02.000 That's right.
00:23:02.000 Not when she talks.
00:23:04.000 So, by the way, in 2019, it was $2.26.
00:23:06.000 So it was $2.26 in 2019, and then right as Biden took office, it was about $2.39.
00:23:13.000 That's less than a dollar.
00:23:15.000 That's way less.
00:23:16.000 And now today, it's $4.17.
00:23:19.000 Wow.
00:23:20.000 $4.17.
00:23:20.000 That's the national average.
00:23:22.000 We'll get to it in a little bit.
00:23:22.000 In California, it's basically $7.
00:23:25.000 It's very close on some of the highest end.
00:23:28.000 Good.
00:23:29.000 So here's the thing.
00:23:30.000 Yes, gas prices are going up.
00:23:32.000 And some people are trying to say it's overblown.
00:23:34.000 No, look, I don't know if you understand that the price of energy affects everything.
00:23:38.000 And it's not just gas, right?
00:23:40.000 Gas is a reflection of petroleum in general, of energy in general across the globe.
00:23:44.000 And that will be reflected in the prices that you have to pay at the grocery stores for anything.
00:23:50.000 Everything from your frozen fruit to your beef to whatever the hell it is that you guys buy at Whole Foods, I don't really know.
00:23:55.000 I'm always confused when I go into the aisle at Whole Foods.
00:23:57.000 I know.
00:23:58.000 I have no idea what that is.
00:23:59.000 Yeah, I don't get it.
00:23:59.000 I'm like, are you, is this an ethnic store?
00:24:02.000 Like, what are you trying to be?
00:24:02.000 Right, yeah.
00:24:03.000 Like, pick something.
00:24:04.000 Is this a spice?
00:24:05.000 Is that a health store?
00:24:06.000 A spice rack?
00:24:06.000 What are you?
00:24:07.000 I don't know.
00:24:08.000 But either way, I'm leaving with chia seeds.
00:24:10.000 I just have a quick question here.
00:24:11.000 It's $80 more than it should be.
00:24:12.000 So they had their crystal ball into the future, they saw the Ukraine thing coming, they knew there was a lead up to it, there was increasing gas prices, and they did to stop it, not to stop Russia invading, because that was probably going to happen anyway, but to do something to mitigate the increasing gas prices.
00:24:28.000 There was some big thing they did, right?
00:24:31.000 Raise them.
00:24:34.000 And I know, but before you send the tweets, I'm not saying that the president sets the gas prices, I'm just saying that the president sets the energy policies that of course affect the gas prices.
00:24:44.000 By the way, in case you doubt me, read the Green New Deal.
00:24:47.000 It's like a page and a half.
00:24:48.000 It doesn't take that long to understand.
00:24:50.000 This is all about climate justice.
00:24:53.000 When you hear this administration discussing Gas prices.
00:24:56.000 When you hear them discussing wanting to move to green energy sources, understand that this is all about climate justice.
00:25:02.000 Read the Green New Deal. 0.76
00:25:03.000 These are the people who control the Democratic Party.
00:25:05.000 When people say they're extreme on both sides, not really!
00:25:08.000 Not really when it relates to energy.
00:25:10.000 Read the Green New Deal and then understand how scary it is that anybody voted for it.
00:25:15.000 Well, if one person voted, if one person supported the Green New Deal, that's one too many.
00:25:22.000 The fact that somebody even Without stopping themselves, put quill to paper.
00:25:28.000 I know this isn't a quill, but it's art.
00:25:30.000 Put quill to paper!
00:25:31.000 It was AOC, wasn't it?
00:25:32.000 It was her and a couple of other people.
00:25:34.000 So it was crayon to paper after she couldn't figure out the connect the dot thing.
00:25:38.000 The paper was cut with safety scissors.
00:25:40.000 The scissors that also looked like two crayons.
00:25:42.000 The fact that somebody actually put pen to paper and created The Green New Deal, and proposed it, is alarming enough.
00:25:50.000 Look, this is what I'm saying.
00:25:51.000 I'm not even talking about, you know, oh, how a bill becomes a law.
00:25:54.000 I'm going to see it in committee.
00:25:56.000 I'm talking about before any of that, just the Green New Deal, think of a thought bubble in my head, and that's enough. 0.63
00:26:02.000 That's scary enough.
00:26:05.000 AOC herself should not have voted for this.
00:26:07.000 Well, she was busy in her bomb shelter on January 6th or something.
00:26:10.000 Telling everybody about her boyfriend's feet.
00:26:12.000 Yes.
00:26:13.000 Well, you all want them.
00:26:15.000 You got it.
00:26:15.000 That's the problem.
00:26:16.000 And Dick Morris is like, did someone say feet?
00:26:18.000 Huh?
00:26:19.000 I'll take two.
00:26:20.000 So here's the thing.
00:26:22.000 Just as we've mentioned, gas prices may have exploded.
00:26:24.000 We all know that.
00:26:25.000 Now, of course, a lot of people, and rightfully so, and this is where we have the disconnect.
00:26:30.000 This does affect the working middle class.
00:26:32.000 This is how Donald Trump won a state like Michigan, a place like Wisconsin.
00:26:37.000 The working middle class, because I think we're seeing again... Hey, remember when people thought the Democrats were not looking out for the interests of the American working class?
00:26:45.000 Right.
00:26:45.000 I think we're experiencing that again, which is why there might be a... There's going to be a red wave, the likes of... I mean, it should be sponsored by Tampax in 2022.
00:26:53.000 Jeez.
00:26:53.000 Pearl Ultra Jumbo.
00:26:56.000 Heavy flo... So, people are upset about it.
00:26:59.000 Here you go.
00:27:00.000 People were feeling fed up about fueling up at the pumps.
00:27:04.000 I just think it's ridiculous that we're paying $5 a gallon.
00:27:08.000 Yeah, it's more expensive than I've ever paid.
00:27:10.000 James Spader?
00:27:10.000 I see it as an opportunity to capitalize on a global tragedy and it's just screwing regular people over.
00:27:17.000 You voted for it.
00:27:18.000 I know you did.
00:27:19.000 The conflict in Ukraine has forced a sharp rise of late, but gas prices have been steadily going up since the start of 2022.
00:27:27.000 Since the beginning of the year, crude oil prices are up by about $50 a barrel, and that translates to about $1.25 a gallon at the pump.
00:27:37.000 Does he really want us to think that that's his office window in front of the Rockies?
00:27:41.000 Well, it could be in Denver.
00:27:42.000 In Berkeley.
00:27:42.000 It said Berkeley!
00:27:43.000 Oh, did it?
00:27:44.000 Berkeley, yeah.
00:27:46.000 My office is in front of a mountain.
00:27:48.000 Yeah, that means look at my, if I pan, you can see all my books.
00:27:52.000 Yes, that's how I know I'm a guest, Bryce.
00:27:55.000 I used to appear on Fox News when I was at a studio that was a green screen.
00:27:57.000 They'd go, uh, do you want the cityscape or the library, the books?
00:28:00.000 Like, I don't know, what do most people get?
00:28:01.000 Like, well, a lot of people ask for the books because they want to seem smart.
00:28:04.000 Like, books on a green screen makes you seem smart?
00:28:08.000 I'll go cityscape, thank you very much.
00:28:10.000 So we just talked about the average gas price across the country per gallon right now, something
00:28:14.000 like $4.17.
00:28:15.000 It's close to $7.
00:28:16.000 I think it's $6.95.
00:28:17.000 I'm rounding up.
00:28:18.000 You can admonish me. 0.99
00:28:19.000 I don't give a rat's ass. 0.99
00:28:20.000 Let me put this in context. 0.99
00:28:22.000 And people were talking about this on Twitter.
00:28:24.000 Yesterday we were talking about how we went back and watched Dumb and Dumber.
00:28:27.000 And we saw the gas prices and said, hey, that's basically the gas prices now.
00:28:30.000 The gas prices now in California are so high, they are higher than post-apocalyptic crappy film, I Am Legend.
00:28:41.000 I'm a survivor living in New York City.
00:28:45.000 I am broadcasting on all AM frequencies.
00:28:49.000 That was supposed to be shocking.
00:28:51.000 There was some consultant on there, like, hey, maybe we should boost it to 695.
00:28:54.000 No, the key is it's got to be believable.
00:28:56.000 It's got to be horrifying enough that it'll scare people, but you just, you can't, you can't show the monster right away.
00:29:00.000 Don't worry, it's still two bucks less than Mad Max and Book of Eli.
00:29:04.000 Did they elect Joe Biden in I Am Legend 2?
00:29:06.000 Effectively, I guess.
00:29:07.000 Right before it happened?
00:29:10.000 I believe the movie is about a vaccine.
00:29:15.000 The parallels are striking!
00:29:16.000 I'm just saying, it's just a movie, okay?
00:29:19.000 Just a movie.
00:29:20.000 I'm referring to the vaccine in the film that killed everyone.
00:29:23.000 Is he Dr. Fauci running around, I can fix this!
00:29:25.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:29:27.000 He just gets shot by Will Smith.
00:29:30.000 One guy and a German Shepard are still alive? 0.98
00:29:34.000 Where are the sand flies when you need them?
00:29:35.000 How does he keep the German Shepard alive?
00:29:36.000 Do you have any idea what a liability that thing is?
00:29:39.000 Historically, you'd think he'd be mad at him.
00:29:40.000 Yeah, you would think so too.
00:29:42.000 Well, they don't have... I don't know what their hydro situation is.
00:29:44.000 Isn't there a shepherd?
00:29:45.000 He's got a shepherd.
00:29:46.000 I think he has a shepherd in that.
00:29:47.000 Right?
00:29:47.000 Yeah.
00:29:48.000 But there are no more fire hoses.
00:29:49.000 No.
00:29:51.000 There's lunch counters.
00:29:52.000 But the good thing is he can eat at any lunch counter he wants.
00:29:55.000 Yeah.
00:29:57.000 The point is there's a silver lining.
00:29:58.000 Think about that for a second!
00:30:00.000 When we say that it's beyond parody, that's a post-apocalyptic film!
00:30:05.000 Yeah.
00:30:06.000 Yeah, a group of people sat there and were like, look, it just can't get higher than that.
00:30:10.000 Nobody's going to believe it.
00:30:11.000 And people at that, so that's like the high end in, what is it, LA County, San Francisco kind of Bay Area.
00:30:16.000 Yeah, they're looking at it going, yeah, that's Tuesday.
00:30:19.000 Right.
00:30:20.000 Yeah.
00:30:22.000 I saw that in a film once.
00:30:24.000 Not even once.
00:30:24.000 I saw that in the theater when I was on the road doing comedy.
00:30:26.000 It's not even an old movie.
00:30:28.000 And by the way, this is one of those things where If you were to say this, like we were talking about the consultant in that film who was fired for being hyperbolic saying, I think we should make it like $7.50.
00:30:36.000 There might have been, if only there had been a world leader who everyone accused of being hyperbolic, everyone accused of being, you know, trying to induce mania, who accurately predicted, I sound like Joe Biden right now.
00:30:50.000 If only there was like an oracle who accurately predicted $7 gas.
00:30:54.000 Did we have it?
00:30:57.000 And the lumber's gone through the roof.
00:30:59.000 The lumber, I guess, as much as anything, but everything.
00:31:02.000 Steel.
00:31:03.000 You look at what's going on with pricing, and obviously you're going to have inflation.
00:31:08.000 Gasoline is going to stop at six, seven dollars, I think, based on what I'm seeing.
00:31:15.000 We were energy independent when I left, and right now I would have to say we are no longer energy independent.
00:31:21.000 We're putting windmills all over the place, which costs a fortune.
00:31:24.000 Now I'm hoping he's right in that it stops at seven.
00:31:27.000 Yeah, well no, with breaking news right now, they just went away from, actually it's still up there.
00:31:32.000 Oh, on CNN, press up really quick.
00:31:34.000 Biden is about to announce a ban on Russian oil imports.
00:31:36.000 Okay, so one, finally, right?
00:31:39.000 And two, guess where gas prices are going now?
00:31:42.000 Right.
00:31:43.000 Now, it would be one thing if they banned Russian imports, and we said, well, okay, so that means we're going to be able to use our own? 0.65
00:31:48.000 No.
00:31:49.000 No, we need more green cars.
00:31:51.000 Well, what are we going to do right now if we're getting rid of three, depending on the number used, three to ten percent of the energy's oil production, right, coming from Russia.
00:31:59.000 Sorry, the world's oil production.
00:32:01.000 I don't know if it's the oil production or energy overall.
00:32:03.000 If it's the United States, depending on if you use the global number, it can be anywhere from three to ten, or just the United States, it can be from three to ten.
00:32:09.000 The point is, it's enough.
00:32:11.000 It's a lot.
00:32:12.000 It's one thing to say, okay, no more Russian imports, which I support, but you can only do. 1.00
00:32:16.000 We just talked about this yesterday.
00:32:18.000 So you're experiencing this in real time.
00:32:20.000 So smash the like button if you understand that you're experiencing this in real time.
00:32:23.000 We discussed this exactly yesterday.
00:32:25.000 This just happened.
00:32:26.000 It is breaking right now.
00:32:27.000 You can only negotiate from a position of strength.
00:32:31.000 You're in an entirely different scenario.
00:32:34.000 On banning Russian imports, as it relates to oil, if you are energy-independent, or relatively energy-independent, than if you've been approving pipelines going through their country and increasing your dependence on oil coming from these other countries who, by the way, don't care about us, hate us, want to wipe us off the face of the map, or don't have EPA standards.
00:32:52.000 My point is, you can take any of those evils.
00:32:54.000 Now, here's the thing.
00:32:55.000 Far be it from me to defend the oil companies on every level.
00:33:00.000 But I do think, you know, they're palminant.
00:33:04.000 They're pominent because right now they want you to scapegoat one person, one industry, and one only.
00:33:12.000 But the thing is, if we're going to blame the oil companies, like you just heard that lady saying, I think this is taking advantage of the American people.
00:33:16.000 Okay, I understand that.
00:33:18.000 Who's taking advantage of the American people?
00:33:20.000 We're going to have some numbers here in a little bit.
00:33:22.000 Might shock you.
00:33:22.000 And I grew up with this in Quebec.
00:33:25.000 So I'm right in there!
00:33:25.000 I went to community college!
00:33:26.000 I know what I'm talking about!
00:33:30.000 They want you to believe that it's the oil companies exclusively raking in all the dough.
00:33:34.000 Just take it from this black CNN host and Bob Newhart. 0.79
00:33:37.000 You represent a district in California where today, according to AAA, the average cost for a gallon of regular is $4.74.
00:33:49.000 Is the administration, are you, is Congress doing enough to prepare the American people for the cost that may come as a result of putting this pressure on Putin?
00:34:04.000 Probably not enough, but the American people need to understand who is making the big profit on the gas.
00:34:11.000 Right now, I would call for Congress, Senate, and House to conduct immediate hearings on the profitability of the oil industry.
00:34:19.000 There is clearly price gouging going on here, and they're going to whine and say, oh, it's not us, it's the Saudi Arabians or somebody else.
00:34:26.000 But the profits of those industries have gone through the roof.
00:34:30.000 No, we're not really saying that it's a Saudi Arabian's U.S.
00:34:33.000 House Member John Ghiramendi from California, the worst state in the union.
00:34:38.000 We're saying it's you.
00:34:40.000 And this is a solution they always have.
00:34:42.000 We're going to look at them and we're going to make sure they bring prices down.
00:34:45.000 Hey, isn't that strikingly similar to something that former Vice President Joe Biden said, by the way, about inflation and prices, which only a month and a half prior he said was a good thing, but then told you exactly how he was going to bring those prices down.
00:34:57.000 Same solution.
00:34:58.000 I think I have a better idea to fight inflation.
00:35:01.000 Lower your costs, not your wages.
00:35:05.000 Huh?
00:35:07.000 Folks... I'm drunk.
00:35:10.000 Yes. 1.00
00:35:12.000 Do you know how stupid he is? 1.00
00:35:14.000 He doesn't realize what he said. 1.00
00:35:15.000 He didn't say lower your price, he said lower your cost.
00:35:18.000 Yeah.
00:35:19.000 Which means they would make more money.
00:35:22.000 Because that doesn't have the effect of the price.
00:35:24.000 One could almost argue, go with me here, that businesses are almost always trying to reduce costs.
00:35:30.000 That's almost one of the primary purposes of businesses, to reduce costs.
00:35:34.000 Don't go out on a limb too far.
00:35:35.000 And increase profits.
00:35:36.000 I don't think so.
00:35:38.000 Just reduce your costs!
00:35:39.000 And every business owner's like, of course.
00:35:42.000 Why didn't I think of that?
00:35:44.000 But also, why does he need to fight inflation?
00:35:46.000 Inflation's a good thing.
00:35:47.000 I thought.
00:35:47.000 Remember when we were told inflation wasn't happening?
00:35:49.000 It was overblown.
00:35:50.000 Then we were told inflation's actually a good thing.
00:35:52.000 And then his solution was, we're just going to tell them to reduce your costs.
00:35:55.000 Oh, well, that's wonderful.
00:35:57.000 Just like with gas prices.
00:35:58.000 Just reduce your costs.
00:35:59.000 So here's the thing.
00:36:00.000 If you want to talk about the American public, the working class being raped by oil companies, That they're taking advantage of people during a pandemic, fine.
00:36:08.000 If you want to go that route, okay.
00:36:09.000 But you would have to place an equal amount of blame on the United States government.
00:36:14.000 I'm only asking for consistency.
00:36:16.000 So according to Stillwater Associates, for every gallon of gas, consumers are paying about $1.18 in taxes and fees.
00:36:24.000 So let me break this down for you in the state of California, where House Member Bob Newhart's from.
00:36:28.000 $0.18 in federal taxes.
00:36:31.000 $0.51 in state taxes.
00:36:32.000 $0.10 sales tax.
00:36:33.000 $0.22 for the low-carbon program.
00:36:35.000 Oh boy, that's not an umbrella term that can be abused.
00:36:37.000 $0.15 for greenhouse gas program.
00:36:41.000 $0.02 for underground tank storage.
00:36:43.000 Here's the thing.
00:36:46.000 $0.22 for a low-carbon program.
00:36:48.000 Then 15 cents for greenhouse gas.
00:36:50.000 Can't you just bundle it and make it, like, nothing?
00:36:52.000 Well, they can't label it slush fund program.
00:36:54.000 Right.
00:36:55.000 Well, yeah, the low carbon program is just don't drive.
00:36:58.000 Yeah.
00:36:58.000 Don't drive your usual route.
00:37:00.000 It's 22 cents.
00:37:01.000 Social Security.
00:37:01.000 Where does it go?
00:37:02.000 What about the Social Security fund?
00:37:03.000 That's been gone for a long time.
00:37:04.000 What are you talking about?
00:37:05.000 Do I get that when I retire?
00:37:06.000 No. 0.99
00:37:07.000 We just take it till you're dead. 0.99
00:37:09.000 So think about this.
00:37:10.000 For every gallon of gas sold in California, the state takes $1.
00:37:16.000 The federal government takes $0.18.
00:37:18.000 So that's $1.18.
00:37:20.000 If you add up the oil companies together, oil producers, refineries.
00:37:23.000 So oil producers, anywhere from $1.05 to $1.15, call it $1.12.
00:37:25.000 Refineries make $0.05 per gallon, those evil refineries.
00:37:26.000 to a dollar fifteen, call it a dollar twelve.
00:37:29.000 Refineries make five cents per gallon, those evil refineries. 0.97
00:37:31.000 Tankers pipelines make about one cent a gallon.
00:37:34.000 Gas station owners make about four to seven cents per gallon.
00:37:37.000 In other words, they're both making effectively the same amount.
00:37:41.000 They're both taking the same amount for each gallon of gas you put in your car.
00:37:46.000 So why are we only blaming oil companies?
00:37:49.000 And how can Jen Psaki and Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi look themselves in the mirror and say, I know, I'll vilify oil companies.
00:37:57.000 At least these people provide a service You've suckled at the government teat for 52 years, Joe Biden.
00:38:05.000 Why aren't you just as responsible?
00:38:06.000 The numbers are about the same.
00:38:08.000 This is all I'm saying.
00:38:09.000 A little bit of consistency.
00:38:10.000 If you're going to be mad at the oil companies, if you're going to be mad at the gas station owners, or the refineries, you absolutely have to be mad.
00:38:18.000 At the government.
00:38:19.000 And by the way, I lived through this in Quebec.
00:38:21.000 So in Quebec, I don't know what the prices are in Quebec right now.
00:38:24.000 I bet you they're higher than California.
00:38:25.000 A lot.
00:38:25.000 When I lived in Quebec, we would go per liter, and it was significantly more expensive than the United States.
00:38:30.000 I remember my uncle from Wisconsin came in and visited, and he didn't realize it was per liter.
00:38:33.000 He goes, oh, look at that, Kyle.
00:38:36.000 Look at that.
00:38:36.000 Look at those cheap gas prices there.
00:38:38.000 I'm like, that's per liter.
00:38:38.000 He's like, what's a liter?
00:38:40.000 We also have our milk in bags. 1.00
00:38:42.000 You're crazy!
00:38:44.000 Yeah, no, the first time I went over there, I was like, well, this is nice. 0.96
00:38:47.000 You want to convert that to 2.3 times that.
00:38:50.000 That's the gallon, roughly.
00:38:51.000 So people were so mad about paying such high gas prices in Quebec, where I was raised, that they were constantly vilifying the oil companies.
00:38:58.000 And of course, the local government and the provincial government, the federal government
00:39:03.000 there in Canada, the national government, they kept blaming the oil companies.
00:39:06.000 And the oil companies and the gas stations got so pissed off, they actually put at every
00:39:10.000 pump a graph to explain.
00:39:12.000 I think we have it.
00:39:13.000 Yeah, they put up a graph to explain where the profits actually went.
00:39:17.000 So kind of like now they're really mad that there are Biden stickers being put up at gas
00:39:20.000 pumps that say, I did that.
00:39:23.000 Just tag a police precinct.
00:39:25.000 You're better off than putting an easily removable sticker at a gas pump.
00:39:28.000 Like a rapist telling you about his childhood.
00:39:32.000 This is why I'm hurting. 0.98
00:39:33.000 Yes, exactly.
00:39:34.000 Oh, thank you.
00:39:35.000 And here's 30% of it.
00:39:36.000 Oh, wow.
00:39:37.000 So look at New Jersey gas price there.
00:39:39.000 427, 427.
00:39:40.000 Jersey.
00:39:41.000 Wow.
00:39:42.000 And you're not allowed to pump your own gas.
00:39:43.000 At least you weren't in New Jersey when I lived in New York.
00:39:46.000 I don't think you're still allowed to.
00:39:47.000 Yeah, because it could be a fire hazard or something like that.
00:39:49.000 Oh, what is everyone doing in the rest of the country?
00:39:53.000 Yeah, if you're on your cell phone, it could explode.
00:39:57.000 Oh, really?
00:39:58.000 Yes.
00:39:59.000 Why is Tim Cook still free to roam?
00:40:01.000 Exactly.
00:40:02.000 How many lives has he taken?
00:40:03.000 What, because I get a text?
00:40:05.000 I get a text on my phone, now all of a sudden I'm going to look like Darkman?
00:40:09.000 I remember a guy came up to me in Jersey.
00:40:11.000 I was like, is this the, is this the pull up to the pump old days where you come out and serve me on the side?
00:40:16.000 I'm sorry.
00:40:16.000 I'll move my car.
00:40:17.000 And the guy's like, no, you have to do it here at your station.
00:40:21.000 Really?
00:40:21.000 Yeah.
00:40:21.000 And I'm like, I don't think, I don't think that's right.
00:40:23.000 I don't think that's legal.
00:40:24.000 And he's like, nope, it's all a Jersey.
00:40:26.000 You can't pump your own gas.
00:40:27.000 And I was like, I'm qualified.
00:40:28.000 Yes.
00:40:29.000 I can do it.
00:40:29.000 There are a few things for which you are qualified.
00:40:31.000 I don't mind tipping.
00:40:32.000 I'm just saying I could happily... You don't have to do this, sir.
00:40:36.000 Yeah.
00:40:36.000 But he did.
00:40:37.000 He's like, I do have to do it.
00:40:38.000 Why?
00:40:38.000 It's a law.
00:40:39.000 Because once you create a law, you can't get it off the books. 1.00
00:40:42.000 Even one as stupid as this. 1.00
00:40:44.000 Now, we talked yesterday about what we can do, because there are solutions that everybody out there should know about. 1.00
00:40:50.000 I don't just want to be a Trevor Noah, John Oliver, people who just bitch and don't actually offer solutions, barring, of course, a solution of mandating vaccines for everybody.
00:41:00.000 We talked about fracking.
00:41:01.000 We talked about opening up our own energy reserves in Alaska.
00:41:03.000 We talked about allowing more onshore drilling leases.
00:41:05.000 Okay.
00:41:06.000 We also talked about the Keystone XL pipeline.
00:41:08.000 Now, to be clear, there is some misinformation going out, and when I say misinformation, I mean people on the left lying about this or misrepresenting it, and they're still free to post on social media.
00:41:17.000 By the way, the sitting president, President Donald Trump, banned.
00:41:21.000 As far as I know it, Putin may still be on Twitter.
00:41:23.000 I think so.
00:41:25.000 Cool.
00:41:28.000 Really?
00:41:30.000 Did you see there's a new Twitter?
00:41:31.000 Someone can bring it up.
00:41:31.000 I don't have this ready here for the show, but Twitter said that they're going to be removing any posts that so distrust in the government of the Ukraine.
00:41:38.000 Why should we trust any government, let alone Ukraine's government?
00:41:44.000 Why is that a policy?
00:41:45.000 So there's a difference between Keystone, the Keystone Pipeline, and Keystone XL.
00:41:50.000 Now this was trending yesterday.
00:41:51.000 And leftists thought that they really had a gotcha, where they were saying, actually, opening the Keystone XL pipeline won't do anything to lower gas prices anyway.
00:41:58.000 And I think we have some tweets up there.
00:41:59.000 Yeah.
00:42:00.000 They were trying to say that, actually, it's crude oil.
00:42:02.000 It's Canada, which is true.
00:42:04.000 And it's crude.
00:42:05.000 And so they'll be selling it to China or Mexico.
00:42:07.000 Now, those contracts don't exist.
00:42:09.000 These are people who are effectively making assumptions, which, by the way, is also why Keystone XL would actually affect our energy prices, because the oil market is largely subject to speculators.
00:42:20.000 Yeah.
00:42:21.000 And if they understand that there are more reserves, if they understand that there's more access to oil, you see a correction of the market immediately.
00:42:27.000 So here's what I was talking about earlier.
00:42:29.000 Any increase in energy production will lower prices not only in the United States, it would be nicer to buy from Canada if we could to have that option.
00:42:37.000 Now, I mean, Putin, Trudeau, it's a toss-up.
00:42:40.000 It really is.
00:42:41.000 But Trudeau won't be in there.
00:42:42.000 He won't be there much longer.
00:42:43.000 He's not gonna invade anybody though.
00:42:45.000 No, I have no idea.
00:42:45.000 I don't think he can.
00:42:46.000 Mounties?
00:42:46.000 Come on.
00:42:47.000 I don't know.
00:42:47.000 Maybe he could.
00:42:48.000 He'd try.
00:42:49.000 He could try.
00:42:49.000 Maine.
00:42:50.000 Go for Maine.
00:42:50.000 Be a great coup.
00:42:51.000 Just lay low for 200 years.
00:42:54.000 Then attack Honduras. 0.90
00:42:55.000 Just show up. 0.92
00:42:58.000 Take it.
00:42:59.000 And be like, what did you see?
00:42:59.000 What happened?
00:43:00.000 And show up and Canada should be like, what'd I tell you?
00:43:02.000 And the Hondurans be like, was he talking to me? 0.83
00:43:03.000 I didn't even know.
00:43:04.000 Commander Blackface, what did we do? 0.78
00:43:06.000 What did he say?
00:43:08.000 Yeah, Canada should just do that. 1.00
00:43:09.000 Give themselves, like, plausible... I always thought, like, I've never punched... I'll never know what it feels like to punch somebody I can't stand in the face because, you know, I'll get sued... Yeah, it's International Women's Day. 0.70
00:43:16.000 Today's the best day ever. 0.99
00:43:18.000 That tuna sandwich sucked.
00:43:20.000 I'll never know what it feels like, but I always thought... Here's the problem with committing a crime. 0.95
00:43:26.000 Aside from the morality.
00:43:27.000 And the punishment.
00:43:28.000 Yeah. 0.99
00:43:29.000 Unless you're a pedophile. 0.99
00:43:30.000 You need an ankle bracelet. 0.99
00:43:31.000 Well, then, revolving door front.
00:43:33.000 The perfect crime is you have to commit it against somebody who you have no connection with.
00:43:37.000 That's the only way you can get away with it.
00:43:39.000 But then, you lose the satisfaction of committing the crime against the person you want to hurt, and so it's quite the quandary.
00:43:44.000 But I always thought that if I were to do it, I would just, I would give myself plausible deniability. 0.99
00:43:48.000 Like, I would punch some random guy, but I'd yell like, Stop eating my damn strawberries! 0.99
00:43:52.000 And you'd be like, what did I do? 1.00
00:43:54.000 Were those his strawberries?
00:43:55.000 He would have no idea and by the time he's thinking about it, going through his memory Rolodex as to what he did wrong, accepting partial responsibility because it's a stand-up guy who I'm punching, I'm long gone.
00:44:07.000 And he's waking up in a hospital with a belly full of strawberries and a face full of tears.
00:44:12.000 Yes, and a mouth full of teeth. 0.81
00:44:14.000 You shouldn't do any of this.
00:44:15.000 So here's a good example while we're talking about this.
00:44:17.000 The Keystone XL pipeline.
00:44:19.000 Yeah, sure, it's Canadian.
00:44:20.000 Okay, got it.
00:44:21.000 Crude.
00:44:21.000 I understand.
00:44:22.000 It's not necessarily our own oil.
00:44:24.000 Immediately turn on the tap.
00:44:25.000 It's a part of a multi-pronged approach.
00:44:27.000 Fracking, when we opened up our own reserves, it caused the global price Of energy.
00:44:33.000 Of oil and gas to decline.
00:44:34.000 Yeah.
00:44:35.000 Now, keep in mind, when gas prices were at their absolute lowest, right, when you were getting under $2 gas here in the United States, you know, as long ago as 2018, the Saudis and the Russians, they had to flood the market to compete. 0.91
00:44:47.000 Here's an exact quote.
00:44:48.000 The Saudis decided to flood the world market with oil and send crude prices from a 2014 peak of more than $100 per barrel to roughly $55 within a matter of months.
00:44:57.000 If I'm not mistaken, it's $200 per barrel right now.
00:45:00.000 No, I don't remember what the current price is, but it's getting close.
00:45:03.000 It's getting close to $200 per barrel.
00:45:05.000 It's ratcheting up, and this is going to make it go up more.
00:45:07.000 You're 100% right.
00:45:08.000 This was economic warfare by Russia and Saudi Arabia, and really OPEC is really what you need to say, because those countries get together and basically say, that's not okay for them to produce this much.
00:45:18.000 We're going to flood the market and make it to where now they can't make money on oil and they have to stop fracking.
00:45:21.000 So part of it was that, then it was policies from the administration.
00:45:24.000 But everybody needs to understand, what we used to complain about in the 80s and the 90s was, OPEC arbitrarily setting high prices for oil because they could.
00:45:33.000 Nobody else was competing.
00:45:35.000 Then we started competing and it pissed them off.
00:45:37.000 Yeah.
00:45:37.000 And it took money out of their coffers and energy prices for the globe went down.
00:45:42.000 Exactly.
00:45:43.000 It doesn't exist in this vacuum.
00:45:45.000 It's not an echo chamber.
00:45:46.000 It's not a closed loop circuit, put it that way, where people try and think if the United States opens up their own reserves, that's the only thing that will affect their oil prices.
00:45:52.000 No, no, no.
00:45:53.000 If we have more access to oil energy, period, globally, particularly if it's not Coming from Russia, coming from Saudi Arabia, coming from countries that hate us, or at the very least kind of hide their hatred from us, but are certainly not bastions of human rights.
00:46:05.000 Guess what?
00:46:06.000 Prices go down across the globe.
00:46:08.000 Now, we should start with our own, but that's not on the cards right now for at least the next two years.
00:46:14.000 Oops.
00:46:14.000 That being said, it benefits everybody!
00:46:17.000 Hey, when you talk about climate change and you talk about it killing people in the third world, and I know you want us to think that, you know, the fact that there's some kind of a fracking pipe going through an urban area that has a, you know, median household income lower than the national average, that's climate racial injustice, I believe is the term to use. 0.78
00:46:34.000 Racial injustice or climate social justice.
00:46:36.000 They make up a new term every week.
00:46:38.000 You know what kills minorities across this country? 0.91
00:46:41.000 Minorities to Americans, meaning people who are not white, is gas prices.
00:46:47.000 It's inconvenient to you for it to be $7 in California.
00:46:51.000 It's deadly.
00:46:53.000 It's deadly to someone in rural Mexico.
00:46:55.000 It's deadly to someone in South America who works for two weeks just to get enough energy to heat up a can of beans.
00:47:03.000 The best thing we can do for the rest of the world is have access to as much energy as humanly possible here in the United States, because at least we're dictating the terms at that point.
00:47:13.000 But, you know, look not at what the left hand is doing, it's the evil oil companies.
00:47:17.000 It's the evil oil companies.
00:47:18.000 It has nothing to do with the government.
00:47:20.000 Really?
00:47:20.000 Okay.
00:47:21.000 If you buy that, well, I have a timeshare to sell you, or I have a Kenyan prince. 0.51
00:47:25.000 I love the comparison that you talked about.
00:47:27.000 $1.12 to oil companies, $1.18 to federal and state governments.
00:47:32.000 They're the same.
00:47:33.000 If you hate one, you have to hate the other.
00:47:35.000 You can't split them apart.
00:47:36.000 I think that was, I didn't know that.
00:47:37.000 $1.12 to $1.18.
00:47:37.000 Yeah, that's insane.
00:47:40.000 And if you add up all of, you know, oil, not just the oil companies, but the refineries, it's still, it's like $1.35.
00:47:45.000 But don't worry, the plan is going to be raising taxes on people who need to pay their fair share so they can just give money away to people that they've raised gas prices on that affected, that are affected the most by it.
00:47:55.000 Don't worry.
00:47:56.000 In case you ever doubted that they were out for their own selfish interests, this sitting former vice president decided to raise... He decided!
00:48:04.000 You're like, isn't it an arbitrary number?
00:48:06.000 How is this determined out there?
00:48:07.000 What, is it out there in the ether?
00:48:08.000 He's like, no, no, we know exactly who isn't paying their fair share.
00:48:10.000 Really, who's that?
00:48:11.000 Anyone making more than $400,000 a year.
00:48:13.000 What do you make, $400,000 a year?
00:48:14.000 Actually, $399,999 now.
00:48:14.000 What do you make? $400,000 a year?
00:48:16.000 Actually $399,999 now. I just passed that law.
00:48:19.000 Okay. Yes.
00:48:21.000 So his last dollar will be taxed at that highest marginal bracket.
00:48:25.000 Listen, I'm paying it too, folks!
00:48:26.000 We're all making sacrifices!
00:48:28.000 That's 37 cents.
00:48:29.000 Yeah, well, you know. 1.00
00:48:31.000 It's crap. 0.99
00:48:32.000 Never been there. 1.00
00:48:33.000 And this brings us to also this disastrous, the foreign policy.
00:48:36.000 Look, there are a lot of concerns here when we're talking about Russia and we're talking about Ukraine.
00:48:41.000 It's not just going on there.
00:48:42.000 Now, we should not be going to war.
00:48:44.000 I just look, I just don't think we should be going to war in this case because thousands of lives versus potentially a billion.
00:48:49.000 When you talk about even, right, the Polish army talking about sending in some fighter jets, and then some representatives in our country are saying, yeah, we would support that.
00:48:56.000 That's okay.
00:48:56.000 That's an act of war.
00:48:57.000 Then we're in war.
00:48:58.000 You're either all in with war or you're not.
00:49:00.000 And I just don't want to see more lives lost.
00:49:01.000 However, Again it doesn't exist in a vacuum and so there's a lot of this has to do with well you were talking about this earlier you want to talk about Iran right this is something with Biden's policy and Iran and Jen Psaki got really smug and tried to blame Donald Trump for pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal but really that's because it was a shitty deal yeah well didn't stop them from getting nukes and it didn't hurt them
00:49:20.000 No, when you make bad policy decisions domestically on oil production that are going to affect the supply in the world and also the pricing in the world, it forces you into some really bad relationships.
00:49:30.000 And so right now we're actually cozying back up to Iran of all people to go back into bed with because what do they have that we need right now? 0.98
00:49:39.000 Oil, right?
00:49:40.000 And we also talked about Maduro yesterday.
00:49:42.000 You know what we have that they need?
00:49:43.000 Bikinis. 0.99
00:49:45.000 I don't know that they need them.
00:49:48.000 We only do business with countries that allow the bikini. 0.99
00:49:51.000 When Iran gets back to that, because they allowed it in the 70s and then they became more radical, then we'll sit at the table and talk. 0.94
00:49:57.000 Until then, no nukes.
00:49:58.000 Masks is fine.
00:49:59.000 One of the people who's a little sexier when some of us come up.
00:50:01.000 Yeah.
00:50:02.000 You guys remember the, uh, like a genie peaks, the curiosity get like a dream, a
00:50:06.000 genie.
00:50:06.000 I'll be your Darren.
00:50:07.000 I like shack.
00:50:08.000 Don't you need some ocean front there?
00:50:09.000 I mean, just in the sand it's not gonna work.
00:50:11.000 You can make an ocean.
00:50:12.000 I have man-made lakes and by man-made I mean- Not in Iran! 1.00
00:50:15.000 You're talking like Saudi Arabia's- I'm talking about man-made lakes, okay?
00:50:19.000 And by that I mean slave-made lakes.
00:50:20.000 Go ahead.
00:50:21.000 A lake, not an ocean.
00:50:21.000 Right.
00:50:22.000 That would be ridiculous.
00:50:24.000 Well, you guys remember when we gave Iran, I don't know, several billion-dollar pallets of cash.
00:50:28.000 Kind of the same thing that we did with Afghanistan, except we just left it there for whoever to take it, right? 0.62
00:50:31.000 So we gave them some money.
00:50:32.000 Afghanistan, it was Apache helicopters and Blackhawks.
00:50:35.000 When he was actually the vice president.
00:50:35.000 Right.
00:50:37.000 And they, like the Biden administration, sorry, the Obama administration, loved the fact that
00:50:42.000 we were jumping into bed with these guys.
00:50:44.000 And we entered into an agreement with them and gave them tons and tons of money.
00:50:47.000 Now we're actually cozying back up and trying to do that again.
00:50:50.000 And so Iran envoy Robert Meili is close to finalizing this deal with them and giving
00:50:56.000 them crazy concessions.
00:50:58.000 I think we have an overlay with it here.
00:50:59.000 They're absolutely stunned by the number of things that we are willing to give away and the teeth that we're taking out of some of the sanctions that we've put on Iran.
00:51:05.000 So former John McCain aide, State Department official Gabriel Nourania tweeted some of the concessions.
00:51:10.000 I'll read them here for you real quick.
00:51:12.000 My former career State Department, NSC, and EU colleagues are so concerned with the concessions being made that they've allowed me to publish some details of the coming deal.
00:51:20.000 has promised to lift sanctions on some of the regime's worst terrorists and torturers, leading officials in the regime's WMD infrastructure, and is currently trying to lift sanctions on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps itself.
00:51:20.000 The U.S.
00:51:33.000 That's insane.
00:51:34.000 You're basically trying to get back into bed.
00:51:36.000 So they're talking about the nuclear deal, right, that they had talked about earlier.
00:51:40.000 They're basically trying to make concessions now to Iran and get back into a bed with them because we have an issue. 0.93
00:51:44.000 By the way, side note.
00:51:45.000 Remember how, I think it was Saturday night, we heard all across the news that Russia was attacking a Ukrainian nuclear power plant?
00:51:53.000 Yeah, it wasn't a thing.
00:51:53.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:51:55.000 Oh, the fire?
00:51:56.000 Yeah.
00:51:56.000 Didn't happen?
00:51:57.000 Ha! 0.89
00:51:57.000 No. 0.89
00:51:58.000 Fake news, huh?
00:51:59.000 Who would have thought?
00:51:59.000 What?
00:52:00.000 Yeah.
00:52:01.000 Not me!
00:52:02.000 No, he didn't say it!
00:52:03.000 I didn't say it!
00:52:04.000 It was the news that said it!
00:52:05.000 Bring CNN up there. 0.99
00:52:06.000 Bring the angry, chain gang, lesbian-cudded correspondent there. 1.00
00:52:11.000 Now admonish them! 0.99
00:52:12.000 She's doing it!
00:52:12.000 Look!
00:52:13.000 Look, she has books!
00:52:14.000 She has books!
00:52:15.000 She's smart! 0.64
00:52:15.000 Those might be real. 0.64
00:52:16.000 That may be real.
00:52:18.000 Scissoring for dummies! 1.00
00:52:19.000 We can't bring the admonish over that, but we should. 0.92
00:52:21.000 Dadgummit.
00:52:22.000 I can't believe I got admonished. 0.94
00:52:24.000 Well look, so the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, right?
00:52:26.000 So that name, you think that's like their SEAL team, you know, kind of six thing.
00:52:30.000 Well, General Hussein Dagan, who led the forces that killed 241 soldiers in 1983 in Beirut, will be free of sanctions.
00:52:37.000 So that guy is part of this sanction lifting that they're talking about.
00:52:40.000 And the Ayatollah Khomeini, by the way, who I also believe is still allowed on Twitter.
00:52:44.000 Also allowed.
00:52:45.000 The companies, the corporations that he runs.
00:52:48.000 I don't know at a certain point if it's a shell corporation or like a desert robe corporation.
00:52:53.000 I don't know about the nomenclature.
00:52:55.000 It's a golden parachute.
00:52:56.000 It's going to be worth tens of billions.
00:52:58.000 Yes, tens of billions, because he's trying to compete with Putin for richest man on the planet.
00:53:01.000 Yes, exactly.
00:53:02.000 Nobody really gets to see that.
00:53:03.000 By not starting an actual business himself, but stealing it from his people. 0.98
00:53:06.000 So these are the people we should be in bed with when doing this.
00:53:08.000 Some people don't understand.
00:53:10.000 I understand that when you have enemies, you have to make alliances, you have to create alliances with people who are the enemy of your enemy.
00:53:16.000 But when will you learn it?
00:53:18.000 We should... Iran's not a friend! 1.00
00:53:20.000 Stop trying to make them a friend!
00:53:20.000 Yeah.
00:53:22.000 They're not your friend!
00:53:23.000 You know what's really funny though?
00:53:24.000 So Iran and Russia typically work together to piss us off most of the time, right? 1.00
00:53:28.000 And now we're trying to kind of, with the nuclear deal, we're trying to lift some of the sanctions and start to open some channels up and Russia's like, No.
00:53:35.000 No, you can't get oil from them.
00:53:37.000 You have to get it from us, right?
00:53:38.000 So, this is for political, right?
00:53:40.000 They're trying to actually stop the deal that we're trying to restart with Russia or with Iran right now.
00:53:45.000 Like, it just makes for very strange bedfellows.
00:53:45.000 I just think it's hilarious.
00:53:47.000 Hello?
00:53:48.000 Yes, Ayatollah Khomeini, I hear that you might be talking with the United States about oil.
00:53:52.000 Come on, we go back.
00:53:54.000 Let's sit together at extra-long table to have talk.
00:53:57.000 You sit on that end, I will be over on the other end in three days.
00:54:01.000 We will have two Maxwell house cans with a piece of string, and you will hear me crystal clear like we are on Vonage.
00:54:07.000 Yes, like movie Big.
00:54:09.000 Do they give you, like, opera glasses as well?
00:54:11.000 Yes, exactly.
00:54:12.000 White gloves.
00:54:13.000 They're just binoculars looking at each other, talking through a walkie-talkie. 0.99
00:54:17.000 Oh, well look, then Wilkes Booth comes up and shoots you in the back of the head.
00:54:21.000 All of this kind of feeds into Something else that's pretty troubling, right?
00:54:27.000 With the U.S. 0.97
00:54:28.000 Let me explain this on the outset before we get too nerdy about it.
00:54:28.000 dollar.
00:54:30.000 Here's something you need to understand.
00:54:31.000 The United States dollar, right, is the benchmark, right?
00:54:33.000 It sort of uses the international benchmark for currency, okay?
00:54:35.000 That's important.
00:54:35.000 It's the reserve currency.
00:54:36.000 It's the reserve currency, right.
00:54:37.000 I know that if I say the reserve currency, a lot of people will be like, what?
00:54:40.000 Yeah.
00:54:41.000 What?
00:54:42.000 So it's basically the currency that means by which all other currencies are compared.
00:54:42.000 No, look, okay.
00:54:47.000 Are compared, yeah.
00:54:48.000 Okay?
00:54:49.000 You, if you're watching right now, listening right now, most of you, the vast majority of you, but likely right now if I'm speaking to you individually, watching, listening, you've experienced that your entire life.
00:54:57.000 And by that I mean, without a doubt, you have.
00:54:57.000 Yeah.
00:55:01.000 Yeah, I don't think we have any 120-year-olds, however long it goes back, watching it.
00:55:05.000 Yeah, 19-aughts.
00:55:06.000 Yeah, probably not.
00:55:08.000 Although, if so, thank you for your service.
00:55:12.000 So you've always experienced that.
00:55:13.000 You don't know the cold world that exists if that is not the case.
00:55:17.000 Now we're at a point with Russia And China.
00:55:19.000 We've talked about the dangerous alliance that we could see between Russia and China, but now India might want to get in that mix. 0.98
00:55:24.000 So if you have Russia, India, China, okay?
00:55:26.000 That's half of population Earth. 0.90
00:55:28.000 You're talking about several billion people.
00:55:30.000 I believe it's about half the population.
00:55:31.000 If not, it's very close.
00:55:32.000 Is it 2.9 billion?
00:55:32.000 2.9 billion roughly.
00:55:33.000 I've heard numbers like 3.5 billion.
00:55:35.000 How many we got, eight?
00:55:37.000 Well, we're trending.
00:55:39.000 We're losing somewhere.
00:55:40.000 The point is, it's too many billions.
00:55:42.000 Too many billions of people.
00:55:44.000 If they do not recognize the United States as a reserve currency, guess what?
00:55:49.000 That is a huge problem for you.
00:55:52.000 That is the end of the modern world, as you know it.
00:55:54.000 And that certainly is the end of our autonomy and our freedom.
00:55:57.000 Because that debt, guess what, can actually be called in.
00:56:00.000 Whereas right now, Chanukah goes, Blake, hey, you owe us money.
00:56:03.000 We're not going to pay that.
00:56:04.000 Nah, we'll just print some more.
00:56:05.000 Here you go.
00:56:06.000 We didn't say it'd be valued the same.
00:56:07.000 I don't understand why we tax... I don't understand why we increase taxes at all or pay any debt with dollars that we have if we're just going to print more.
00:56:15.000 Just do it all the time.
00:56:16.000 Well, you just don't want runaway inflation.
00:56:18.000 Well, no, I know, but they don't care about that.
00:56:19.000 They're turning our dollar into the ruple.
00:56:21.000 Yeah, that's a good thing.
00:56:22.000 Inflation's good for the economy, according to Joe Biden.
00:56:24.000 Right.
00:56:25.000 If you're just going to leave billions of dollars worth of planes in the middle of the desert, perhaps... It's too expensive to bring them back.
00:56:31.000 Is this former Vice President Joe Biden?
00:56:32.000 Is he on live right now?
00:56:33.000 Breaking news right now.
00:56:34.000 Right now, former Vice President Joe Biden is speaking live.
00:56:36.000 Let's hear him talk tough about Russia.
00:56:38.000 Moving forward with this ban, understanding that many of our European allies and partners may not be in a position to join us.
00:56:45.000 The United States produces far more oil domestically than all the European countries combined.
00:56:51.000 Oh, thank you.
00:56:52.000 In fact, we're a net exporter of energy.
00:56:54.000 We were!
00:56:55.000 We were!
00:56:56.000 Oh, energy.
00:56:57.000 See the change?
00:56:58.000 Energy, not oil.
00:57:01.000 The brown marks on the side of his face on each side.
00:57:05.000 What is that?
00:57:06.000 He took one for International Women's Day.
00:57:10.000 He just said we remain united.
00:57:12.000 We remain united in our purpose to keep pressure mounting on Putin and his war machines.
00:57:19.000 This is a step that- You wouldn't know anything about the war machine, would you, Biden?
00:57:23.000 But there will be cost as well here in the United States.
00:57:26.000 I said I would level with the American people from the beginning.
00:57:29.000 You will level the American people.
00:57:31.000 Defending freedom is going to cost us as well in the United States.
00:57:36.000 Republicans and Democrats understand that.
00:57:39.000 Republicans and Democrats alike have been clear that we must do this.
00:57:44.000 Over the last week, I spoke with President Zelensky several times.
00:57:48.000 To hear from him about the situation on the ground and to consult and continue to consult with our European allies about U.S.
00:57:56.000 support for Ukraine and the Ukrainian people.
00:57:59.000 Thus far, we've provided more than $1 billion in security assistance to Ukraine.
00:58:05.000 Shipments of defensive weapons are arriving to Ukraine every day from the United States, and we, the United States, are the ones coordinating the delivery of our allies and partners of similar Uh, weapons from Germany to Finland to the Netherlands.
00:58:19.000 We're we're, we're working that out.
00:58:22.000 We're also providing humanitarian support to both those still in Ukraine and those who have fled safely to neighboring countries.
00:58:30.000 We're working that out.
00:58:31.000 We're working with humanitarian organizations to surge tens of thousands of tons of food, water, medical supplies.
00:58:38.000 Oh good, well I guess the homeless problem is solved here in the United States.
00:58:40.000 We don't have any people going to bed hungry.
00:58:43.000 I sent Secretary Blinken to visit our border between Poland and Ukraine and to Moldova.
00:58:50.000 Oh, borders matter now!
00:58:52.000 We don't care about what's going on in our southern border, but we are obsessed with Ukraine's borders. 0.76
00:58:56.000 I just want to make sure that I understand the rules.
00:58:59.000 He's the last guy you would want in front of you or behind you at a checkout line.
00:59:03.000 He doesn't know how to use that little dividing stick.
00:59:05.000 He's the kind of guy that goes in the express lane with 24 items.
00:59:12.000 You're way past the grace item, dummy.
00:59:14.000 Vice President Harris is going to be traveling to meet with our allies in Poland and Romania
00:59:18.000 later this week as well.
00:59:20.000 I've made it clear that the United States will share in the responsibility of caring
00:59:25.000 for the refugees so the costs do not fall entirely on the European countries bordering
00:59:31.000 Ukraine.
00:59:32.000 Didn't they just make it illegal for able-bodied men to leave Ukraine?
00:59:37.000 18-year-old men?
00:59:38.000 Yeah, that's always a good sign.
00:59:39.000 By the way, I just want to be clear.
00:59:40.000 Of course my heart goes out to all the people of Ukraine.
00:59:43.000 Of the Ukrainian-Russian conflict.
00:59:45.000 I know it's Ukraine, not the Ukraine.
00:59:47.000 It's very easy to say, because it's just Ukraine sounds coming out of your mouth.
00:59:50.000 My heart goes out to those people. 1.00
00:59:51.000 But you really are looking at one corrupt shithole fighting another corrupt shithole. 0.99
00:59:57.000 Let's not act as though Ukraine is a bastion of freedom over there, okay? 0.96
01:00:00.000 If you have to ban your own citizens from leaving your country, that means that a good portion of them don't want to stay and fight because they don't think what you've created, and by you I mean of course as well the Obama administration, the administration that you've installed is worth fighting for.
01:00:17.000 Can you imagine having to ban Americans?
01:00:19.000 From fleeing the country if there was a home invasion?
01:00:23.000 No, they have the opposite problem.
01:00:25.000 That's why they're constantly concerned about Americans with guns, because they know they're going to plant their feet in their soil and defend what's theirs.
01:00:32.000 Absolutely.
01:00:32.000 There are enough Ukrainians who don't want to defend that place that they are trying to leave and a new law had to be created to muppet hook them back.
01:00:41.000 Major companies are pulling out of Russia entirely, without even being asked, not by us.
01:00:46.000 Over the weekend, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, they all suspended their services.
01:00:51.000 Tell me when you have Diners Club.
01:00:53.000 Joining a growing list of American and global companies from Ford to Nike to Apple, they've suspended their operations in Russia.
01:01:02.000 The U.S.
01:01:03.000 Stock Exchange has halted trading of many Russian securities.
01:01:07.000 And the private sector is united against Russia's vicious war of choice.
01:01:12.000 U.S.
01:01:12.000 Department of Justice has assembled a dedicated task force to go after Russian criminals.
01:01:17.000 None of that affects Vladimir Putin.
01:01:19.000 You said you were going to go after oligarchs.
01:01:21.000 You think he's driving around in a Ford Fiesta with his Nike kicks?
01:01:25.000 Maybe.
01:01:25.000 On and off day.
01:01:28.000 He's thumbing through the roughly 800 million dollars that we've bought in Russian energy since the start of this war going, that's doing just fine.
01:01:39.000 Joe Biden thinks that freezing his Capital One points rewards card is gonna stop him.
01:01:47.000 I get double points when I eat out!
01:01:50.000 Since Putin began his military buildup on Ukrainian borders, just since then, The price of the gas at the pump in America went up 75 cents.
01:01:59.000 And with this action, it's going to go up further.
01:02:01.000 I'm going to do everything I can to minimize price insecurity.
01:02:06.000 In coordination with our partners, we've already announced that we're releasing 60 million barrels of oil from our joint oil reserves.
01:02:13.000 Half of that, 30 billion, is coming from the United States.
01:02:19.000 And we're taking steps to ensure a reliable supply of global energy.
01:02:23.000 We're also going to keep working with every tool at our disposal to protect American families and businesses.
01:02:31.000 Let me say this.
01:02:32.000 To the oil and gas companies and to the finance firms that back them, we understand Putin's war against the people of Ukraine is causing prices to rise.
01:02:41.000 We get that.
01:02:41.000 That's self-evident.
01:02:43.000 But, but, but, but, it's no excuse to exercise excessive price increases.
01:02:50.000 We just gave you the numbers.
01:02:52.000 He's vilifying companies that take the same amount or less depending on the state that this government takes.
01:03:02.000 Think about that for a second. 0.99
01:03:03.000 The difference is he has a forced platform where you have to sit here and watch and everyone has to turn to this and act like he's not spewing bullshit. 0.99
01:03:11.000 He's as close to literally pissing on your forehead and telling you that it's raining that I've ever seen. 0.99
01:03:19.000 And I get that it's figured. 0.97
01:03:21.000 I'm pulling a condom. 0.63
01:03:22.000 Your forehead isn't a diaper he's wearing. 0.97
01:03:25.000 Yes it is.
01:03:25.000 Never head is in a diaper he's wearing.
01:03:27.000 It's simply not true that my administration or policies are holding back domestic energy
01:03:32.000 production.
01:03:33.000 Yes, it is.
01:03:34.000 It's simply not true.
01:03:35.000 Yes, it is.
01:03:36.000 Even amid the pandemic, companies in the United States pump more oil during my first year
01:03:41.000 in office than they did during my predecessor's first year.
01:03:44.000 What about the other years?
01:03:45.000 In the United States, 90% of onshore oil production takes place on land that isn't owned by the federal government.
01:03:49.000 the other years.
01:03:50.000 In the United States, 90% of onshore oil production takes place on land that isn't owned by the
01:04:00.000 federal government.
01:04:02.000 And of the remaining 10% that occurs on federal land, Do we have that number?
01:04:05.000 How many did former Vice President Joe Biden approve for onshore?
01:04:07.000 least they have 9,000 permits to drill now they could be drilling right now
01:04:13.000 yesterday last week last year they have 9,000 to drill onshore that are already
01:04:20.000 approved so let me be clear let me be clear yeah how many did he approve do we
01:04:25.000 have that number how many Joe former vice president Joe Biden approved for
01:04:28.000 onshore I believe it was zero I believe it's none Good number.
01:04:33.000 If not, it's pretty close.
01:04:35.000 Also, here's a question.
01:04:37.000 Energy independent.
01:04:39.000 Thanks, Joe.
01:04:40.000 Tell me how you do it.
01:04:41.000 They don't want to go back to that point.
01:04:43.000 It's just not tenable.
01:04:49.000 It should motivate us to accelerate the transition of clean energy.
01:04:53.000 This is a perspective that our European allies share.
01:04:57.000 What about nuclear?
01:04:57.000 Zero, I'm sure, Eliseo.
01:04:58.000 Zero, but not zero.
01:04:59.000 So he just took credit for the ones that already existed under President Donald Trump.
01:05:03.000 Correct.
01:05:03.000 So he just took credit for the ones that already existed under President Donald Trump.
01:05:10.000 He also just said it's not his fault.
01:05:19.000 Right now, we cannot power electric vehicles on clean energy.
01:05:22.000 You are many, many decades away from that.
01:05:23.000 Also, you have to understand the millions of lives lost during that transition, because guess what?
01:05:28.000 The amount of lives lost per kilowatt hour, if you look at things like solar, if you look at things like wind, the safest energy as far as human sacrifice, as far as the casualty rate, is nuclear.
01:05:38.000 Something that they have ardently fought against for a very long time.
01:05:42.000 Here's something else, too.
01:05:43.000 This is happening in real time.
01:05:44.000 We just were going through what this administration is doing, and they did it right now!
01:05:48.000 All references available at loudearthcreditor.com.
01:05:51.000 But I want you to... Let's do this exercise, okay?
01:05:53.000 Right now.
01:05:54.000 And you know what?
01:05:54.000 Let's have the team ready here to fact-check it so that I make sure that I'm not speaking out of turn, because I'm not prepared for any of this.
01:06:00.000 But he just sold you.
01:06:01.000 He said, look, look at all these, uh, look at all these, uh, they have these leases and they're not drilling.
01:06:05.000 They could be drilling right now.
01:06:06.000 Okay, good.
01:06:07.000 So it's a company that you just vilified for being greedy and wanting to make a profit.
01:06:10.000 You just vilified them for being greedy profiteers, right?
01:06:13.000 Everyone remembers that.
01:06:13.000 Okay.
01:06:14.000 So assuming that they are the greedy profiteers you made them out to be, why would they not be drilling?
01:06:20.000 Their business is providing oil.
01:06:23.000 Seems to me you need to drill.
01:06:25.000 Seems to me that the primary actions you need to take in order to be a successful oil company is to first procure the oil and then sell the oil.
01:06:37.000 Why would they not be procuring the oil?
01:06:39.000 What would be the answer to that?
01:06:40.000 Again, this does not pass the sniff test.
01:06:42.000 Either A, it's completely false, or B, and this is why I said this doesn't exist in a closed loop circuit, oil companies were afraid to open up more drilling because of what they saw happening with this administration, because they saw the taxes increasing, because they saw that it would be less profitable, and not to mention we had an economic shutdown that had people traveling at record low levels.
01:07:04.000 All of which is a direct result of this guy and his ilk.
01:07:08.000 Why would they not be drilling?
01:07:10.000 If you assume that they're corrupt and they only care about making more money, then you have to ask, why would they not do the one thing that would make the money?
01:07:18.000 Oh, unless this guy's going to make it so that they can't make money.
01:07:21.000 And guess what happens?
01:07:23.000 That cost gets passed on to you.
01:07:27.000 Is he saying anymore?
01:07:28.000 Yeah, let's hear it.
01:07:29.000 He's mumbling. 0.99
01:07:30.000 Demented old circus monkey. 0.99
01:07:32.000 That's clear. 0.94
01:07:34.000 They'll defend their freedom, their democracy, their lives.
01:07:38.000 And we're going to keep providing security assistance, economic assistance, and humanitarian assistance.
01:07:44.000 We're going to support them against tyranny, oppression, violence... You mean like lockdowns and mandates?
01:07:49.000 People everywhere, and I think it may even surprise some of you all, people everywhere are speaking up for freedom.
01:07:57.000 On the history of this war is written... Not everywhere.
01:07:59.000 Putin's war on Ukraine will have left Russia weaker and the rest of the world stronger.
01:08:04.000 May God bless all those heroes in Ukraine.
01:08:08.000 Now I'm off to Texas.
01:08:09.000 Thank you very, very much.
01:08:10.000 I know there's a lot of...
01:08:14.000 He's always confused here because, you know, they tell me I shouldn't answer, but I feel like I can do it.
01:08:19.000 There's always nine people yelling at me.
01:08:22.000 It's like my dreams.
01:08:24.000 Hold on, can I just recap one thing that we just heard a second ago?
01:08:27.000 Please do, Gerald, because I'm angry.
01:08:29.000 I know, you're angry, and this kind of pisses me off a little bit too, but he laid out the problem that gas prices are high right now, and they're going to get higher.
01:08:36.000 Okay, you're Nostradamus, got it, right?
01:08:39.000 Your solution that you just said, here's what we're doing.
01:08:44.000 We released 60 million barrels of oil three days ago.
01:08:47.000 Not from the United States.
01:08:49.000 30 million came from our reserves.
01:08:50.000 60 million globally.
01:08:52.000 Right.
01:08:52.000 That is Roughly two days of operation for the United States and China.
01:08:59.000 Period.
01:08:59.000 The top two oil-consuming countries, about 32 million barrels a day.
01:09:03.000 That's your solution to the problem?
01:09:06.000 No, I forgot more Priuses.
01:09:08.000 No, no, no.
01:09:09.000 The other part of his solution was blaming people for making any money as an oil company for selling it right now and raising their prices as price goes up.
01:09:18.000 And then the third thing was, go out and buy an electric vehicle.
01:09:22.000 Okay, so everybody in America right now should go out and spend an extra $50,000 to $60,000 on a car when they already have a car.
01:09:28.000 How many years is it going to take to get that money back on the gas savings?
01:09:32.000 I don't know, like 20, 30?
01:09:33.000 Do you know what's worse for the environment if you currently have a car and you are currently driving that car, a car you already own?
01:09:41.000 Do you know what's worse for the environment than to continue driving that car?
01:09:44.000 Buying a new car!
01:09:47.000 It's better for you to drive that into the ground than buy a new electric vehicle.
01:09:51.000 If you want to do it because they're fun and they're fast, I get it.
01:09:53.000 I rode in the Tesla thing.
01:09:54.000 Very cool.
01:09:55.000 Very cool.
01:09:56.000 Awesome.
01:09:56.000 There are some pretty cool cars, and I also like that they're made here in the United States, and that Elon Musk left California, who, by the way, also tried to force a transition to green energy.
01:10:03.000 Think of that for a second.
01:10:04.000 Elon Musk.
01:10:05.000 Is there anyone who's done more for green energy or energy advancement, certainly as it relates to the automobile, than Elon Musk?
01:10:13.000 And he had to leave California for Texas!
01:10:17.000 That should tell you how this ends!
01:10:19.000 That's incredible.
01:10:20.000 That's our government fault right there.
01:10:22.000 Well and it's a tax credit telling you to spend $60,000 on a car.
01:10:25.000 Which is worse for the environment than just driving your car into the ground.
01:10:29.000 The best thing you can do is just not purchase a new car, keep driving that one.
01:10:33.000 I don't know how.
01:10:33.000 But the idea of collapsing an entire country, well the world, for two years and then saying you need to go out and buy all this stuff is astonishing to me.
01:10:41.000 The disconnect between the rich-ass politicians and everybody else in this country is insane to me.
01:10:46.000 You don't need to be a crazy conspiracy theorist to understand the Great Reset. 0.91
01:10:49.000 Let's just go through these steps here, OK?
01:10:51.000 We have inflation.
01:10:51.000 First off, he lies and he says there is no inflation.
01:10:53.000 Then he says, well, inflation doesn't really matter.
01:10:55.000 Then he says it's a good thing.
01:10:56.000 Then he says, well, I'm going to fix this by keeping costs down.
01:11:00.000 OK.
01:11:01.000 Well, let's even go back before that, before we had the inflation.
01:11:03.000 We had an economy that was shut down artificially because the government effectively punished companies.
01:11:07.000 And we also had people who were getting wages.
01:11:08.000 They were encouraged not to work.
01:11:10.000 So we had a low labor force participation rate.
01:11:12.000 We had an incredible jobless rate.
01:11:13.000 By the way, we still have not added one new job.
01:11:16.000 Since our peak of 2019.
01:11:17.000 Not one over that, just to be clear.
01:11:19.000 So we've not added any new jobs.
01:11:21.000 We've had a net loss of jobs.
01:11:23.000 We have record inflation.
01:11:24.000 And by the way, all of this was created by the people who are here to help, the government.
01:11:28.000 Their solution now is we're going to force prices to be lower.
01:11:32.000 By the way, prices that you can't afford regardless, even if we had the power to force them to be lower.
01:11:36.000 We're going to enact energy policy under the guise of climate justice that will He just said it.
01:11:43.000 I'm not strawmanning him here.
01:11:44.000 You can rewind this.
01:11:46.000 85 seconds where he said the price of gas, the price of energy, ergo all goods and services that you use in your daily life, will go up.
01:11:55.000 Well, trying to force you to buy or encourage you to buy cars, green cars, which are unbelievably more expensive than the average vehicle and certainly your old beater that you're driving.
01:12:05.000 This is the solution at this point.
01:12:06.000 And then vilify oil companies.
01:12:08.000 Oh, and by the way, we also just declared BlackRock too big to fail.
01:12:11.000 That's what Elizabeth Warren was pushing for.
01:12:13.000 A 10, 12 trillion dollar company?
01:12:15.000 How much are they right now?
01:12:16.000 It's definitely 10 trillion or above who are buying up all the real estate so that they can create a permanent renter's economy because you will own nothing and you will like it.
01:12:25.000 Everything will be out of reach.
01:12:26.000 You can't afford it.
01:12:27.000 They'll try and provide a credit so that you can maybe try and put yourself into more debt to purchase a new car that you don't need while you're renting from a house that is being leased.
01:12:36.000 By one of the world's, not one of, arguably the world's most powerful company that has ever existed who, by the way, are guaranteed by you, the taxpayer.
01:12:46.000 Doesn't matter if they go bankrupt and bail you out.
01:12:48.000 You're going to bail them out anyway.
01:12:50.000 You will own nothing and you will like it as we fight for freedom of Ukraine.
01:12:57.000 Send our boys to war to fight for freedom in this Ukrainian conflict.
01:13:01.000 Yeah, that's what we got to do.
01:13:03.000 Okay, you mean freedom?
01:13:04.000 What is freedom?
01:13:05.000 Let's define what freedom is.
01:13:06.000 Can we define what freedom is?
01:13:08.000 The freedom to travel?
01:13:10.000 The freedom to purchase any goods and services that you want, provided it's not harming anyone else or that it's illegal?
01:13:15.000 The freedom to choose what goes into your own body?
01:13:18.000 The freedom to, as an employer, allow your own employees to choose what goes into their own body.
01:13:23.000 Think of how bastardized that is.
01:13:25.000 When you talk about an employer mandate, it's not only forbidding people from choosing what is forcibly injected into them, it's actually telling employers that they're not even allowed to permit their own employees to make their decisions.
01:13:38.000 You will own nothing and like it.
01:13:39.000 You will have no freedoms and like it.
01:13:41.000 And we'll send the rest of our soldiers off to fight wars In which we have no vested self-interest.
01:13:47.000 This is the best and brightest.
01:13:49.000 This is what you voted for.
01:13:50.000 Everybody who voted for Joe Biden right now because they didn't like mean tweets.
01:13:54.000 This is what you get.
01:13:56.000 Not only that, this is what you get when you take a permanent ruling class of people who've been a revolving door of academics and those in government.
01:14:02.000 When people always say, oh I like intelligentsia, we don't want intellectuals running our... No, you know what?
01:14:07.000 No.
01:14:07.000 No.
01:14:08.000 Because Joe Biden is considered an intellectual.
01:14:10.000 Why?
01:14:10.000 Because he went to a good school, allegedly, and then has suckled at the government teat for 48 years.
01:14:16.000 You know what?
01:14:16.000 I would sooner take a plumber who created his own business, a successful business, who started as a contractor and created a business and went through that life experience, who actually wrote I'll just let that one sit.
01:14:27.000 I'm just following the show.
01:14:28.000 of them. I would sooner take that man as president than someone like a President Joe Biden or God
01:14:33.000 forbid former Vice President Joe Biden or God forbid a President Kamala Harris whose greatest 0.98
01:14:37.000 qualification was opening her legs for a mayor. I'll just let that one sit. I'm just following 0.98
01:14:44.000 the show. I agree with you. Well look I know we're talking about some very serious topics.
01:14:51.000 topics in Indian everything. Let's...
01:14:53.000 Let's talk about that either behind the paywall.
01:14:54.000 He's into weed and blenders.
01:14:55.000 Yes.
01:14:56.000 Is he a big one?
01:14:57.000 Let's either talk about that behind the paywall or tomorrow.
01:14:58.000 I want to make that macro point about driving India, Russia, China together in kind of this new world order.
01:15:04.000 Do I need to bring this up here to follow you?
01:15:05.000 No, no, no.
01:15:05.000 We'll talk about that tomorrow.
01:15:06.000 Oh, can we talk about it tomorrow?
01:15:07.000 Yeah, let's talk about that tomorrow.
01:15:08.000 I was going to say, because this just happened live, and I think that we just hit what we needed to.
01:15:11.000 No, you're right.
01:15:11.000 Look, you just experienced this in real time.
01:15:12.000 Yesterday.
01:15:13.000 Go watch yesterday's show.
01:15:14.000 This is an exercise that I want everyone to do if you can.
01:15:17.000 If you care about this program at all, or if you want to be able to defend when people say, oh, Dave and I make offensive jokes, look.
01:15:24.000 Go to yesterday's show.
01:15:25.000 Watch what we discuss.
01:15:26.000 We discuss energy.
01:15:27.000 We discuss energy policy.
01:15:28.000 We discuss energy costs.
01:15:30.000 And we discuss what was most likely to happen.
01:15:32.000 Then today, we showed you their playbook.
01:15:36.000 And not six minutes later, they came up and used it.
01:15:40.000 That's what changed my mind.
01:15:41.000 That's why we do this show.
01:15:43.000 That's why all references are publicly available at lightearthcreditor.com.
01:15:46.000 It's not about a tit-for-tat.
01:15:48.000 It's not about a quadrant view with people who look like they're from Lemony Snicket's on CNN scoring a few points.
01:15:53.000 It's about learning how to think.
01:15:56.000 If you can learn how to learn, if you can learn how to think, that's why I wanted to go through that in real time.
01:16:01.000 Wait, wait, wait, hold on a second.
01:16:03.000 They have all of this access to oil, these evil profiteering oil companies, but they're not drilling?
01:16:08.000 Why?
01:16:08.000 If I serve no other purpose for the rest of my life, and they are few and far between, it is hopefully that you learn how to not only think, but learn how to learn.
01:16:19.000 And everyone learns differently.
01:16:21.000 But it starts with looking at everything that is being fed to you, especially through authoritative figures, through a critical lens and asking, why?
01:16:31.000 Why?
01:16:32.000 Like a four-year-old, why?
01:16:35.000 Why?
01:16:37.000 Why?
01:16:38.000 It starts with asking why.
01:16:39.000 If you ask why to everything he just said, Well, guess what?
01:16:43.000 You'll find the answers in two shows here within the last 48 hours.
01:16:47.000 We're about to go discuss pedophile vigilantism.
01:16:51.000 Not pedophile vigilantes.
01:16:52.000 Oh, that's terrifying. 0.84
01:16:53.000 No, vigilantes against pedophiles.
01:16:56.000 Smash the like button.
01:16:56.000 Leave a comment.
01:16:58.000 As to what you think the why is below.
01:17:02.000 That's the best thing you can do for the YouTube algorithm, which doesn't like us anyway.
01:17:04.000 They're not paying us anything.
01:17:06.000 All right, YouTube, we're about to go discuss something that I know you hate. 0.70
01:17:09.000 Our dislike for pedophiles.
01:17:12.000 Sorry, I mean half your staff. 0.95
