00:00:00.000 Addams, the very best part of every day.
00:00:03.480 No exceptions, and today will be extra, extra good because it always is.
00:00:09.360 And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tanker, gels, a stein, a canteen, a jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:15.540 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:00:18.320 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:25.600 Everything.
00:00:26.340 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's going to happen right now.
00:00:30.000 Go.
00:00:34.020 Oh, yeah, that's good.
00:00:36.800 Oh, I hope it was just as good for you.
00:00:40.420 Well, let's talk about all the fake news.
00:00:43.200 Let me ask you a question.
00:00:45.980 Was any of the news today real?
00:00:49.680 Like any of it?
00:00:52.260 Sometimes I wonder.
00:00:54.660 Let's get into it.
00:00:55.760 So Fox News is reporting that CNN had a guest on nine different times who, according to Fox News, was just making up a story about Ron DeSantis, Governor DeSantis, pressuring people to fudge the data on coronavirus.
00:01:17.860 Now, reportedly, there's no truth whatsoever to this, according to Fox News.
00:01:26.320 CNN had her on nine times.
00:01:30.420 Nine times.
00:01:31.640 And apparently there's just no truth to it.
00:01:34.100 There's no substance whatsoever.
00:01:36.660 And Chris Cuomo had her on at least five times, or exactly five times.
00:01:41.640 And that was in the context of talking up his brother and talking down Florida.
00:01:49.060 It's just completely, completely unethical behavior.
00:01:58.200 According to Einstein, the simultaneous sip is not simultaneous because of different frames of reference.
00:02:04.280 Well, I hate that you're going all Einstein on me, but you're technically correct.
00:02:14.580 So what do you make of the fact that CNN had basically a liar on nine different times?
00:02:23.760 So you totally trust the rest of the news, right?
00:02:27.520 Just because this part of news was absolutely, totally fraudulent.
00:02:34.760 And I have to wonder, what does that tell you about the things that you can't know whether it's true or not?
00:02:43.980 Because when you can tell, when you have the ability to look into a story and know for sure what was true at the end,
00:02:52.340 then you can look back and see how the coverage was.
00:02:54.780 But is it a coincidence that whenever we can verify a story, it's false?
00:03:01.760 Are you worried about that?
00:03:03.840 That whenever you can verify it for sure, it's false.
00:03:09.100 But all of those other things that you can't verify because there's, you know,
00:03:13.520 sort of differences in the science or the interpretation or the opinion or the facts are not clear.
00:03:20.060 Oh, that's all true.
00:03:21.960 Yeah, that's all good.
00:03:22.860 But those few times when you can actually check and find out for sure if the story was true or false,
00:03:32.340 they're all false.
00:03:34.560 It's probably just a coincidence, right?
00:03:38.920 All right, I'm exaggerating because obviously not all the stories are false.
00:03:43.440 Steve Cortez made me laugh today.
00:03:48.080 I think he's learned a few tricks from President Trump in how to insult people well.
00:03:55.220 I don't know if he made this up, but he referred to Dr. Fauci as a fascist gnome.
00:04:02.260 A fascist gnome.
00:04:03.840 How do you not laugh at that?
00:04:07.760 I mean, that's virtually Trump-level cleverness.
00:04:11.960 Now, I don't know if he made that up, but if he did, it's pretty funny.
00:04:14.220 And I guess Dr. Fauci admitted that he may have worn his mask a little longer than the science required,
00:04:23.180 indoors anyway, just to sort of try to be consistent with the CDC's recommendation.
00:04:29.280 So we do know that Dr. Fauci seems to have made at least a little bit of a distinction
00:04:36.560 between what is scientifically correct and what is a messaging priority.
00:04:43.720 So is that wrong?
00:04:45.940 Well, I'm not going to be as harsh on Dr. Fauci, the fascist gnome,
00:04:55.260 because I think his job is partly science and partly messaging and partly persuasion.
00:05:04.720 And if he was doing exactly that, you know, science plus persuasion plus messaging, I'm okay with it.
00:05:12.020 You know, I get, I totally understand the criticism that he departed a little bit from the science,
00:05:19.000 and that hurts his credibility.
00:05:21.520 But if your job also is messaging, I'm going to give him a pass on that.
00:05:28.700 Origin of COVID, have I read it by Nicholas Wade?
00:05:31.520 I have not read it.
00:05:32.700 This is the second time I've heard about it in two days, though.
00:05:35.420 I'm hearing good things about it, but I don't know anything about it.
00:05:38.260 And I also don't know that it matters, does it?
00:05:43.160 Does it matter?
00:05:44.520 Let's say we knew for sure that there was a gain-of-function testing on the virus,
00:05:49.960 and it came out of the Wuhan lab.
00:05:52.160 Then what?
00:05:53.760 Then what?
00:05:55.420 Nothing, right?
00:05:57.020 Then what is nothing?
00:05:58.180 There's no difference.
00:05:59.600 It's information which we're curious about, but it doesn't have any function.
00:06:03.460 Because don't you think that it's a guarantee that the big laboratories somewhere are doing
00:06:12.040 gain-of-function testing?
00:06:14.140 I think so.
00:06:15.380 Do you think the United States isn't doing any gain-of-function testing?
00:06:20.160 Really?
00:06:21.620 Really?
00:06:22.800 You think Russia isn't doing any?
00:06:24.880 Really?
00:06:26.540 Yeah.
00:06:26.980 North Korea?
00:06:28.640 Well, I don't know about North Korea, but if they could, they would.
00:06:31.160 So I just don't know that it makes any difference if we know it or not.
00:06:36.420 Because I think we can say, without doing any research, that it's happening probably in
00:06:43.000 all the major countries' labs.
00:06:45.780 Probably.
00:06:46.960 So if we found out for sure, does it make any difference?
00:06:51.740 I mean, maybe we try harder to not let one out.
00:06:54.280 But I have to feel that we always try hard to not let out a deadly pandemic virus.
00:07:01.200 I just don't know what would be different.
00:07:03.660 Now, if somebody has a suggestion of what we would do differently, maybe we'd put more
00:07:08.220 pressure on China or something, but what difference would it make?
00:07:12.260 Are they going to respond to more pressure?
00:07:15.200 They're just going to say we didn't do it.
00:07:16.680 If we could prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was a weaponized virus that came out
00:07:23.120 of the Wuhan lab, what would China say?
00:07:27.220 No, it wasn't.
00:07:28.960 That's the end of it.
00:07:29.920 That's the end of the trail.
00:07:31.600 Yes, it was.
00:07:33.240 No, it wasn't.
00:07:34.760 But yes, it was.
00:07:36.300 Look at all of our evidence.
00:07:38.400 Eh, you probably made it up.
00:07:39.900 No, seriously.
00:07:40.880 It's really good evidence.
00:07:42.400 Look at it.
00:07:42.960 Look at our evidence.
00:07:44.340 Eh, I think you made it up.
00:07:45.640 We live in a world in which facts just don't make any difference for stuff like this.
00:07:51.800 So it'd be great to know.
00:07:53.380 I mean, just out of curiosity, but it has no function.
00:07:57.720 MSNBC host Ali Velchi has declared that Israel's treatment of the Palestinians is apartheid.
00:08:06.580 And, of course, there's a little pushback on that, as you might expect.
00:08:09.640 And part of his argument is that the Israelis are gobbling up land that used to belong to the Palestinians
00:08:19.800 and that they're using legal tricks and national defense and lots of rationalizations to gobble up land and put settlements there.
00:08:29.880 Now, I feel as if that characterization, at least of the gobbling up land, that seems fair, right?
00:08:39.040 I'm a, in case you're new to my live streams, I'm a very, very pro-Israel and their right to defend themselves.
00:08:49.040 But I think it's a fact that they're gobbling up land and, you know, building settlements and stuff very intentionally, very strategic.
00:08:59.140 And, as I always say, I can't criticize any country from doing what is available to them to improve their situation.
00:09:09.120 We'd do it. Any country would do it.
00:09:12.260 So you can complain, but it's not going to stop anything.
00:09:15.760 People, countries are supposed to follow what's in their best interest.
00:09:20.580 And Israel is clearly doing that to the possible detriment of other people.
00:09:25.640 But that's how it works, unfortunately.
00:09:27.240 Now, here's my take on this.
00:09:30.600 Whether or not the apartheid claim, you know, fits the facts,
00:09:35.740 there's clearly some stuff going on over there that's better for one group than another, right?
00:09:41.520 We can certainly agree that not everybody is in the same situation, right?
00:09:47.880 Whether you label it apartheid, that's just the politics of it.
00:09:51.180 But my take on this is that as long as Hamas has a stated plan of destroying Israel,
00:10:00.560 Israel has a free pass.
00:10:03.140 Let me say that again.
00:10:04.680 If somebody ever in your life says,
00:10:08.020 my plan is to kill you eventually,
00:10:11.500 to, like, just kill you, eventually.
00:10:14.080 I might not do it today,
00:10:15.680 but eventually I'm going to do everything in my power.
00:10:19.020 It's my top priority to kill you.
00:10:21.880 Suppose there was somebody in your life who said that,
00:10:24.360 and they meant it.
00:10:25.720 They're not bluffing.
00:10:26.880 It is actually their plan to kill you, someday.
00:10:32.840 Do you have a moral and ethical,
00:10:35.140 let's say, a moral and ethical right to kill them first?
00:10:43.980 Yes.
00:10:44.860 Yes, you do.
00:10:46.560 Absolutely.
00:10:47.820 If somebody is making a credible threat
00:10:50.860 that they will kill you,
00:10:52.760 maybe not today, but eventually,
00:10:55.480 and you believe it,
00:10:57.100 and they have a history that proves
00:10:58.660 they do this kind of thing,
00:11:00.660 yes, you are ethically and morally
00:11:03.440 completely within your right
00:11:05.880 to slay them where they stand,
00:11:08.500 even if they haven't lifted a hand against you.
00:11:11.880 Now, you would go to jail forever, right?
00:11:15.480 I mean, it's murder.
00:11:17.020 So it's not legal or even close to legal,
00:11:22.060 but it is morally and ethically completely fair.
00:11:25.680 Completely.
00:11:26.760 Now, this is a hypothetical situation
00:11:28.900 that doesn't really exist.
00:11:31.300 In the real world,
00:11:32.140 there are not people who make credible claims
00:11:34.060 that they will someday kill you,
00:11:36.600 except for a stalker, I suppose.
00:11:38.480 In which case, you can kill the stalker.
00:11:40.660 And if you put me on the jury, I'll let you out,
00:11:42.820 but I don't recommend killing a stalker.
00:11:46.360 Let me say it again.
00:11:47.080 Again, if you kill a stalker
00:11:49.200 and I'm on the jury,
00:11:51.660 you're in good shape.
00:11:53.880 Don't worry about it.
00:11:55.500 But if I'm not on the jury,
00:11:57.060 you might have to worry about 12 other people
00:11:58.840 convicting you,
00:11:59.800 so I don't recommend it.
00:12:01.380 But let me say unambiguously,
00:12:04.620 if you ever kill your stalker
00:12:07.460 and I'm on the jury,
00:12:09.860 you're not going to get convicted
00:12:12.360 as long as the facts support
00:12:14.740 that it was a real threat
00:12:16.320 and a real stalker.
00:12:17.500 If you kill them, I'm okay with that.
00:12:19.720 I don't recommend it.
00:12:21.720 Don't do it.
00:12:23.300 Let me be clear.
00:12:24.760 Do not kill your stalker
00:12:26.400 unless you're in immediate danger.
00:12:30.780 So it's not advice.
00:12:32.280 But I don't like stalkers,
00:12:34.960 is what I'm saying.
00:12:36.260 And likewise,
00:12:37.020 I don't like Hamas
00:12:38.460 saying that they're going to destroy Israel
00:12:40.300 eventually no matter what they do.
00:12:42.060 And as long as that's their position,
00:12:44.480 I'm okay with Israel
00:12:45.880 doing anything they want.
00:12:48.480 I mean, within reason.
00:12:50.980 I mean, you know,
00:12:52.220 if they tried to literally kill everybody in Gaza,
00:12:55.600 I wouldn't be in favor of that
00:12:57.220 or anything close to it.
00:12:59.140 But I don't think they have any ethical
00:13:01.440 or moral problem whatsoever.
00:13:04.280 Legal problems, yes.
00:13:06.620 You know, they have to deal with that separately.
00:13:08.960 But no moral or ethical problem
00:13:11.040 to just gobble up that land.
00:13:13.220 The Hamas has just made it easy
00:13:14.820 for them to do it.
00:13:17.040 Apparently, there's a group of science deniers
00:13:19.680 advising the White House.
00:13:22.220 Interesting turn of events,
00:13:23.720 wouldn't you say?
00:13:25.040 Let me give you some details.
00:13:27.220 There's something called
00:13:28.220 the White House's
00:13:30.140 Environmental Justice Advisors.
00:13:33.400 Environmental Justice Advisors.
00:13:36.020 And they're opposing both nuclear energy
00:13:38.480 and carbon capture projects.
00:13:42.280 Do I need to say more?
00:13:44.660 You could not be more anti-science
00:13:47.440 than opposing the two things
00:13:49.720 that pretty much all scientists say
00:13:51.760 are required
00:13:52.620 and way better than the alternatives.
00:13:55.660 Carbon capture,
00:13:56.540 if we become more efficient at it.
00:13:58.640 It's not quite there yet.
00:14:00.120 And nuclear power.
00:14:02.420 And the Biden administration
00:14:04.100 is pro-nuclear power.
00:14:07.540 Right?
00:14:07.740 So their own advisors
00:14:09.400 are advising them
00:14:10.440 against something
00:14:11.160 they know to be unwise.
00:14:14.480 The advice is unwise
00:14:16.540 and the Biden administration
00:14:17.840 knows it.
00:14:19.120 So, you know,
00:14:19.800 I'll give credit
00:14:20.500 to the administration
00:14:21.420 for knowing that this is unwise.
00:14:24.940 But how do they justify
00:14:27.860 having advisors
00:14:32.240 who are anti-science?
00:14:33.800 I mean,
00:14:34.260 obviously anti-science.
00:14:35.780 You can't get
00:14:37.260 much more anti-science
00:14:39.740 than being against
00:14:41.660 nuclear energy
00:14:42.500 or carbon capture.
00:14:44.780 Because science
00:14:46.100 is in favor of those
00:14:47.020 very clearly
00:14:48.740 and unambiguously.
00:14:51.860 So the New England
00:14:53.800 Journal of Medicine
00:14:54.620 has a little article in there
00:14:55.760 saying that
00:14:56.420 when the two-dose
00:14:58.580 vaccinations
00:14:59.940 were tested,
00:15:02.120 apparently they tested
00:15:03.180 the efficacy
00:15:04.540 of the second dose
00:15:07.280 soon after the first.
00:15:10.000 So when they did the trial,
00:15:11.560 they didn't wait as long
00:15:12.500 for the second dose
00:15:13.620 as we are in reality.
00:15:16.460 And the importance of that
00:15:18.320 is that apparently
00:15:19.640 you can do some magic
00:15:20.760 with the numbers.
00:15:21.800 I'm not sure
00:15:22.220 I totally trust the analysis,
00:15:24.020 but I'll just tell you
00:15:24.760 what they came up with,
00:15:25.920 which is that
00:15:26.840 the first dose
00:15:27.740 might have been
00:15:28.760 way more effective
00:15:29.800 than we thought.
00:15:31.580 Because the first dose
00:15:33.060 was still increasing
00:15:34.080 in protection
00:15:36.060 at the time
00:15:37.700 that they gave them
00:15:38.320 the second dose.
00:15:39.800 So when they were testing
00:15:41.120 the efficacy
00:15:41.640 of the first dose,
00:15:43.120 it was like closer
00:15:43.960 to 50%,
00:15:44.920 but it was still increasing.
00:15:47.100 So they didn't really test
00:15:49.540 the efficacy
00:15:50.240 of the first dose.
00:15:52.840 Right?
00:15:53.400 So this is the
00:15:54.120 important point.
00:15:55.620 The efficacy
00:15:56.180 of the first dose
00:15:57.660 of the two-dose treatment
00:15:59.480 wasn't really analyzed
00:16:01.920 because they were
00:16:02.520 sort of in a hurry
00:16:03.300 and they made
00:16:04.720 a little bit
00:16:05.360 of an assumption
00:16:05.880 that the second dose
00:16:06.880 would be important.
00:16:08.480 So they kind of
00:16:09.640 stuck them together
00:16:10.420 a little close.
00:16:11.600 But apparently
00:16:12.420 you can use
00:16:13.060 some statistics
00:16:13.900 and math
00:16:14.460 and analysis
00:16:15.080 and untangle
00:16:16.840 that situation.
00:16:19.860 And when you do,
00:16:20.660 it makes the first dose
00:16:21.960 look like it's
00:16:23.400 almost 93% effective
00:16:25.500 when it reaches
00:16:26.700 its peak.
00:16:28.200 Now,
00:16:28.800 it might not last
00:16:29.720 as long,
00:16:30.380 and that would be
00:16:30.960 an argument
00:16:31.340 for the second dose.
00:16:33.080 But here's my argument.
00:16:37.040 I feel as though
00:16:38.700 we're going to get
00:16:40.360 to herd immunity
00:16:41.440 way sooner
00:16:43.700 than the experts
00:16:44.900 are saying.
00:16:45.640 And here's why.
00:16:50.140 Sorry.
00:16:50.860 Something just
00:16:51.480 set off my security camera,
00:16:52.840 but it was a bird.
00:16:55.380 We're good.
00:16:56.540 Nobody's attacking
00:16:57.260 the house.
00:17:00.160 So here's my argument.
00:17:01.860 The experts are saying
00:17:02.760 that we might need
00:17:03.760 75 to 85%
00:17:06.020 people
00:17:07.300 to get
00:17:08.120 vaccinated.
00:17:10.120 Do you believe that?
00:17:11.440 Do you believe
00:17:12.120 that we'll need
00:17:12.940 75,
00:17:14.820 85%
00:17:15.500 of the people
00:17:15.920 to get vaccinated
00:17:16.640 to have herd immunity?
00:17:19.000 Well,
00:17:19.560 here's what I think.
00:17:20.440 Now that we know
00:17:21.080 the first dose
00:17:21.780 is as effective
00:17:22.540 as it is,
00:17:24.280 in some states
00:17:25.580 we're getting
00:17:26.040 pretty close
00:17:26.700 to 60%
00:17:27.760 of people
00:17:29.380 who had the first dose,
00:17:30.840 at least
00:17:31.380 the first dose.
00:17:33.080 Now,
00:17:33.960 if this were
00:17:35.020 a generic
00:17:35.900 pandemic
00:17:36.780 where,
00:17:38.280 you know,
00:17:38.700 all people
00:17:39.420 were affected
00:17:40.220 sort of similarly,
00:17:41.440 you know,
00:17:42.040 children got it
00:17:42.980 as badly
00:17:43.480 as middle-aged
00:17:44.300 people,
00:17:44.740 as badly
00:17:45.100 as adults,
00:17:46.060 or,
00:17:46.640 you know,
00:17:46.860 the elderly
00:17:47.900 will always
00:17:48.380 get it worse.
00:17:49.120 But if it were
00:17:49.740 more spread out,
00:17:51.920 then that 60%,
00:17:53.980 70%
00:17:54.840 herd immunity
00:17:55.540 thing
00:17:55.940 makes sense,
00:17:56.740 right?
00:17:57.620 But what happens
00:17:58.560 when you have
00:17:58.940 a situation
00:17:59.520 where you get
00:18:00.420 almost all
00:18:02.680 of the vulnerable
00:18:03.320 people vaccinated?
00:18:04.340 vaccinated,
00:18:05.020 which is
00:18:06.220 where we are
00:18:07.580 right now,
00:18:08.340 right?
00:18:08.880 We almost
00:18:10.260 probably
00:18:11.160 have all
00:18:12.980 of the old
00:18:13.400 people vaccinated.
00:18:14.940 Now,
00:18:15.440 the people
00:18:15.720 who are
00:18:15.940 unvaccinated
00:18:16.800 are mostly
00:18:18.220 children
00:18:18.620 who don't
00:18:19.320 really have
00:18:19.720 a risk,
00:18:20.360 which is
00:18:20.800 different
00:18:21.060 from other
00:18:21.520 pandemics.
00:18:23.080 So,
00:18:23.880 if you add
00:18:24.880 to that
00:18:25.180 the fact
00:18:25.540 that the
00:18:25.960 first dose
00:18:27.040 we have,
00:18:28.020 we're approaching
00:18:28.720 60%,
00:18:29.680 it's like
00:18:30.100 50,
00:18:30.580 60%
00:18:31.180 in most
00:18:32.260 states,
00:18:33.340 I think
00:18:35.620 we're there.
00:18:37.220 Or just
00:18:37.960 right almost
00:18:39.700 there.
00:18:40.820 Because
00:18:41.300 if you
00:18:42.340 added to
00:18:43.080 the 60%,
00:18:44.140 the children
00:18:44.960 who don't
00:18:45.420 make a
00:18:45.780 difference,
00:18:47.460 and you
00:18:48.180 added to
00:18:49.580 that the
00:18:50.340 people who
00:18:50.640 have natural
00:18:51.120 immunity,
00:18:52.040 maybe it's
00:18:52.760 not as good
00:18:53.320 as a
00:18:53.580 vaccination,
00:18:54.320 maybe it
00:18:54.720 is,
00:18:55.740 and then
00:18:57.180 on top of
00:18:57.840 the people
00:18:58.160 with natural
00:18:58.800 immunity,
00:18:59.680 you add
00:19:00.540 the people
00:19:01.060 because they
00:19:01.940 had the
00:19:02.280 virus once,
00:19:03.200 you add
00:19:03.540 the people
00:19:03.860 who have
00:19:04.060 some kind
00:19:04.420 of cross-reactive
00:19:05.700 immunity,
00:19:07.220 other types
00:19:08.300 of coronavirus
00:19:09.020 apparently gives
00:19:09.860 you a little
00:19:10.320 bit of
00:19:10.640 immunity,
00:19:11.780 I feel like
00:19:12.800 maybe we're
00:19:13.280 there,
00:19:14.800 like right
00:19:16.180 on the edge
00:19:16.920 where it's
00:19:17.460 just going to
00:19:17.880 fall off a
00:19:18.480 cliff any
00:19:19.480 day now.
00:19:20.420 Now,
00:19:20.740 I'm not saying
00:19:21.280 you should
00:19:21.620 throw your
00:19:22.060 masks away
00:19:22.740 or anything
00:19:24.000 else,
00:19:24.300 I'm not
00:19:24.560 telling you
00:19:24.900 anything,
00:19:25.540 I'm just
00:19:26.140 saying that
00:19:26.700 if I had
00:19:27.400 to guess,
00:19:28.720 I'm going
00:19:29.260 to guess
00:19:29.660 that we
00:19:30.000 get to
00:19:30.500 something like
00:19:31.380 a functional
00:19:32.560 herd immunity
00:19:33.520 because of
00:19:34.320 this weird
00:19:34.740 situation of
00:19:35.540 getting all
00:19:35.980 the vulnerable
00:19:37.100 people first
00:19:38.340 and the kids
00:19:39.640 don't really
00:19:40.080 need it,
00:19:41.120 I feel like
00:19:42.600 we're right
00:19:43.120 on the cusp
00:19:44.740 of herd
00:19:45.240 immunity,
00:19:46.000 if not
00:19:46.880 already there.
00:19:48.500 I mean,
00:19:49.120 when you hear
00:19:49.480 the Texas
00:19:49.940 has zero
00:19:50.560 deaths
00:19:50.980 yesterday,
00:19:52.200 we might
00:19:54.440 be there.
00:19:54.820 so I'm
00:19:57.520 going to be
00:19:57.740 a little
00:19:57.940 more optimistic
00:19:58.840 than the
00:19:59.580 experts,
00:20:01.540 but I
00:20:02.380 like that
00:20:02.840 the experts
00:20:03.300 are not
00:20:03.700 as optimistic
00:20:04.380 as me.
00:20:05.140 Maybe it
00:20:05.920 keeps people
00:20:06.700 getting vaccinated
00:20:07.400 and maybe
00:20:08.420 that helps.
00:20:09.180 I know
00:20:09.400 some of you
00:20:09.740 disagree.
00:20:12.340 Rasmussen
00:20:12.780 did a little
00:20:13.340 poll in
00:20:13.860 which they
00:20:14.220 were testing
00:20:15.020 the knowledge
00:20:15.840 of Americans
00:20:18.040 and they
00:20:20.120 were finding
00:20:20.700 out that
00:20:21.260 the people
00:20:22.240 who watched
00:20:22.860 CNN and
00:20:23.760 MSNBC
00:20:24.660 were the
00:20:26.100 least informed
00:20:27.060 of these
00:20:28.360 three groups.
00:20:31.040 People who
00:20:31.900 watched Fox
00:20:32.700 News were
00:20:33.780 more informed,
00:20:35.200 at least on
00:20:35.800 the three
00:20:36.100 questions that
00:20:36.740 I'll tell you
00:20:37.560 in a minute.
00:20:38.820 But somewhere
00:20:39.960 between Fox
00:20:41.540 News, who
00:20:42.260 were the
00:20:42.520 most well
00:20:43.080 informed,
00:20:44.880 and CNN
00:20:45.900 and MSNBC,
00:20:47.620 who were the
00:20:48.140 least well
00:20:49.200 informed,
00:20:50.760 there was a
00:20:51.540 category in
00:20:52.100 the middle
00:20:52.440 people who
00:20:54.460 don't watch
00:20:54.920 the news.
00:20:57.000 That's right.
00:20:58.200 People who
00:20:58.960 don't watch
00:20:59.500 the news,
00:21:00.120 or at least
00:21:00.560 television news,
00:21:01.780 were better
00:21:02.580 informed than
00:21:04.980 the people who
00:21:05.540 watch CNN
00:21:06.120 and MSNBC.
00:21:07.840 So in the
00:21:09.400 order of which
00:21:10.100 one informs you
00:21:10.920 best, there
00:21:12.220 would be Fox
00:21:12.900 News, those
00:21:14.180 viewers were
00:21:14.760 the best,
00:21:15.880 people who
00:21:16.800 didn't watch
00:21:17.260 any fucking
00:21:17.760 thing at all,
00:21:19.120 they were
00:21:19.460 number two,
00:21:20.180 and at the
00:21:21.340 bottom was
00:21:22.460 CNN and
00:21:23.120 MSNBC.
00:21:24.740 So if
00:21:25.500 watching their
00:21:26.160 news makes
00:21:27.520 you dumber,
00:21:28.940 it's a
00:21:29.900 mental health
00:21:30.400 problem.
00:21:32.060 Now what's
00:21:32.480 the definition
00:21:33.020 of a mental
00:21:33.720 health problem?
00:21:34.920 Well, the
00:21:35.520 definition is
00:21:36.140 not just that
00:21:36.760 you're different,
00:21:38.320 the definition
00:21:38.980 is that it
00:21:40.020 affects your
00:21:40.680 life in a
00:21:41.280 negative way,
00:21:41.840 or somebody
00:21:42.260 else's life
00:21:42.880 in a negative
00:21:43.400 way.
00:21:44.140 That would
00:21:44.660 be a mental
00:21:45.100 illness.
00:21:46.200 Do you
00:21:46.500 think that
00:21:46.920 the people
00:21:47.500 at CNN
00:21:48.840 and MSNBC,
00:21:50.140 the people
00:21:51.060 who watch
00:21:51.420 it, and
00:21:52.240 are becoming
00:21:52.720 less and
00:21:53.320 less well
00:21:53.840 informed,
00:21:55.200 do you
00:21:55.780 think that
00:21:56.180 that has
00:21:56.640 any impact
00:21:57.240 on their
00:21:57.620 happiness,
00:21:58.360 or anybody
00:21:58.900 else's?
00:22:00.360 Of course
00:22:01.180 it does.
00:22:02.480 Of course
00:22:03.000 it does.
00:22:03.960 The CNN
00:22:04.440 viewers think
00:22:05.120 they're on a
00:22:05.560 planet that's
00:22:06.120 going to burn
00:22:06.660 up by the
00:22:08.380 time their
00:22:08.720 children are
00:22:09.460 in the
00:22:10.420 Middle Ages.
00:22:11.560 They think
00:22:12.140 the whole
00:22:12.460 planet's on
00:22:13.260 fire.
00:22:14.900 They think
00:22:15.480 that there
00:22:15.800 was an
00:22:16.560 insurrection
00:22:17.240 at the
00:22:17.620 Capitol just
00:22:18.320 like a
00:22:19.360 few months
00:22:19.760 ago.
00:22:20.840 The CNN
00:22:21.400 viewers are
00:22:23.120 definitely
00:22:23.640 experiencing
00:22:24.360 mental health
00:22:25.040 problems because
00:22:26.380 the information
00:22:26.960 that they get
00:22:27.560 is panicking
00:22:28.200 them and
00:22:29.380 is not
00:22:29.740 true.
00:22:31.880 Let me
00:22:32.440 give you some
00:22:32.820 details here.
00:22:33.440 So the
00:22:33.740 questions that
00:22:34.480 they asked
00:22:34.820 were on,
00:22:35.520 let's see,
00:22:36.860 health insurance,
00:22:37.600 income tax
00:22:38.120 rates, and
00:22:38.760 the debt, I
00:22:39.700 think, were
00:22:40.100 the three
00:22:41.180 things.
00:22:41.780 And in
00:22:41.960 each of
00:22:42.240 those, Fox
00:22:42.800 News viewers
00:22:43.820 were way more
00:22:44.640 informed,
00:22:45.740 relatively
00:22:46.240 speaking.
00:22:46.900 A lot of
00:22:47.200 people still
00:22:47.640 didn't know
00:22:47.980 anything.
00:22:50.380 Turn off the
00:22:51.220 news, yes.
00:22:52.960 Maple Bob.
00:22:57.180 So, you
00:22:59.240 know, it
00:23:00.160 sounds like I'm
00:23:00.860 joking, right,
00:23:01.680 when I say
00:23:02.240 that CNN and
00:23:03.180 MSNBC give
00:23:04.280 you brain
00:23:04.800 damage and
00:23:06.020 or mental
00:23:06.760 illness.
00:23:07.820 I'm not
00:23:08.480 joking.
00:23:09.980 I'm not even
00:23:10.940 a little bit
00:23:11.520 joking.
00:23:11.840 it's funny.
00:23:14.840 Yeah, should
00:23:15.400 we regulate
00:23:16.000 CNN like
00:23:16.760 heroin and
00:23:17.340 cocaine?
00:23:19.340 I don't
00:23:19.920 know.
00:23:21.540 There are a
00:23:22.160 lot of
00:23:22.360 people who
00:23:22.740 do cocaine
00:23:23.340 who aren't
00:23:23.760 complaining,
00:23:24.780 as long as
00:23:25.360 they have
00:23:25.540 enough money.
00:23:27.140 But the
00:23:27.940 people watching
00:23:28.700 the news,
00:23:29.460 the wrong
00:23:29.760 news, definitely
00:23:31.000 getting dumber.
00:23:33.580 And apparently
00:23:34.260 the viewers of
00:23:36.100 NBC, ABC,
00:23:37.100 and CBS
00:23:37.540 similarly were
00:23:39.840 under-informed.
00:23:40.800 So, I
00:23:42.860 feel like this
00:23:43.440 is a real
00:23:43.960 thing that
00:23:44.360 has to be
00:23:44.800 addressed.
00:23:46.260 And here's
00:23:46.800 what I would
00:23:47.200 love to see.
00:23:48.640 I would love
00:23:49.340 to see this
00:23:49.960 Rasmussen poll
00:23:51.020 become a
00:23:53.140 permanent
00:23:53.820 ongoing feature
00:23:54.960 in which we
00:23:56.460 simply report
00:23:57.480 whose viewers
00:23:59.560 are the least
00:24:00.180 informed.
00:24:02.160 Right?
00:24:02.600 Because right
00:24:03.100 now we check
00:24:03.780 who has the
00:24:04.760 most viewers,
00:24:06.360 and fortunately
00:24:07.440 it's Fox
00:24:07.920 News, because
00:24:08.900 they're the
00:24:09.260 best informed,
00:24:10.600 so isn't it
00:24:11.440 good that
00:24:11.720 there are
00:24:11.920 more of
00:24:12.280 them?
00:24:13.080 But we
00:24:14.740 should be
00:24:15.100 tracking this.
00:24:16.460 We should
00:24:16.840 track it
00:24:17.220 every month
00:24:17.860 and find out
00:24:19.080 whose viewers
00:24:19.660 are the least
00:24:20.300 informed,
00:24:21.340 because that
00:24:22.220 should tell
00:24:22.760 you something.
00:24:24.120 How would
00:24:24.700 you like to
00:24:25.180 be an
00:24:27.240 MSNBC or
00:24:28.400 CNN viewer
00:24:29.200 and to
00:24:30.280 learn that
00:24:31.500 your group
00:24:31.980 is the
00:24:32.380 least informed,
00:24:33.960 least well
00:24:35.200 informed anyway?
00:24:36.640 Would it
00:24:37.180 make any
00:24:37.580 difference?
00:24:38.580 No.
00:24:39.320 I probably
00:24:39.840 wouldn't.
00:24:40.460 You would
00:24:40.800 still just
00:24:41.340 do whatever
00:24:41.760 you do.
00:24:44.260 All right,
00:24:44.860 I've got a
00:24:45.240 UFO update.
00:24:48.280 So we've
00:24:49.380 seen several
00:24:49.880 kinds of
00:24:50.380 UFOs,
00:24:51.460 and I feel
00:24:53.040 like we have
00:24:53.620 an answer for
00:24:54.420 all of them
00:24:55.060 now.
00:24:56.020 So one of
00:24:56.860 the kinds of
00:24:57.360 UFOs was
00:24:58.140 this triangle.
00:24:59.760 It was like
00:25:00.260 this green
00:25:01.360 floating triangle
00:25:02.260 thing.
00:25:02.640 Do you remember
00:25:02.960 that one?
00:25:03.340 We all saw
00:25:03.640 the video.
00:25:04.000 and
00:25:05.140 apparently
00:25:07.120 that can
00:25:09.080 be reproduced
00:25:10.020 with a
00:25:11.000 camera lens
00:25:11.740 of a certain
00:25:12.260 type that
00:25:13.280 actually has
00:25:13.800 an aperture
00:25:14.320 that closes
00:25:14.980 down to
00:25:15.440 that triangle.
00:25:17.340 So the
00:25:18.660 triangle one
00:25:19.660 is nothing
00:25:20.380 but a
00:25:20.920 light in
00:25:21.340 the sky,
00:25:22.040 probably
00:25:22.720 another
00:25:23.080 aircraft,
00:25:24.340 that the
00:25:25.040 camera aperture
00:25:26.060 makes it
00:25:26.880 look triangular
00:25:27.720 in certain
00:25:30.120 cases,
00:25:31.040 and that can
00:25:31.540 be reproduced.
00:25:32.400 So number
00:25:33.880 one,
00:25:34.740 the flying
00:25:35.380 triangle has
00:25:37.220 been debunked.
00:25:38.420 So take that
00:25:39.040 one off of
00:25:39.520 your list.
00:25:40.060 We know
00:25:40.440 how that
00:25:40.800 was done.
00:25:41.840 It's just
00:25:42.500 the way the
00:25:44.080 lighting works
00:25:44.700 and the
00:25:45.360 aperture.
00:25:47.080 Number two,
00:25:48.420 you've got the
00:25:49.020 ones where
00:25:49.760 you can
00:25:51.300 actually see
00:25:51.840 a photo
00:25:52.700 of something
00:25:53.240 metallic,
00:25:54.980 and other
00:25:55.820 ones that
00:25:56.300 seem to be
00:25:56.940 buzzing around
00:25:57.860 in the
00:25:58.220 vicinity of
00:25:58.980 military
00:25:59.480 assets.
00:26:01.180 Well,
00:26:01.500 there's another
00:26:01.940 theory that
00:26:02.940 these are
00:26:03.380 actually
00:26:03.960 terrestrial
00:26:05.240 drones.
00:26:06.940 Now,
00:26:07.220 I'm going
00:26:07.440 to talk
00:26:07.720 about the
00:26:08.040 ones that
00:26:08.440 defy
00:26:08.840 physics next,
00:26:10.200 so we're
00:26:10.700 not talking
00:26:11.140 about them
00:26:11.700 yet.
00:26:12.260 That's coming
00:26:12.900 up.
00:26:13.640 These are
00:26:14.020 just the
00:26:14.320 ones that
00:26:14.780 are,
00:26:15.340 hey,
00:26:15.600 there's
00:26:15.820 something
00:26:16.040 here we
00:26:16.460 can't
00:26:16.740 explain,
00:26:17.320 and it
00:26:17.520 seems to
00:26:17.840 be buzzing
00:26:18.880 around our
00:26:19.800 stuff.
00:26:23.020 The thinking
00:26:23.780 is that
00:26:24.280 those are
00:26:24.640 actually
00:26:25.080 surveillance
00:26:25.920 drones,
00:26:26.780 drones that
00:26:28.100 some of
00:26:29.300 our normal
00:26:30.720 earthly
00:26:31.480 adversaries
00:26:32.840 are using
00:26:33.900 to collect
00:26:34.540 data.
00:26:35.780 So,
00:26:36.180 the thinking
00:26:36.640 is this.
00:26:37.640 If you
00:26:38.180 send a
00:26:38.940 drone toward
00:26:39.760 a military
00:26:40.300 asset,
00:26:41.660 say,
00:26:42.220 American
00:26:42.720 Navy or
00:26:44.080 pilots in
00:26:45.200 the air,
00:26:46.160 the American
00:26:47.380 assets will
00:26:48.300 respond.
00:26:49.760 So,
00:26:50.360 they'll
00:26:50.520 respond as
00:26:51.340 if it were
00:26:51.820 a threat or
00:26:52.580 as if it
00:26:53.380 were something
00:26:53.740 they need to
00:26:54.240 look into.
00:26:54.680 Now,
00:26:55.760 that response
00:26:56.580 is information
00:26:58.020 that enemies
00:26:58.640 would like to
00:26:59.280 know.
00:27:00.360 So,
00:27:00.600 the thinking
00:27:01.700 is that
00:27:02.280 they're sending
00:27:02.880 drones against
00:27:04.060 our assets,
00:27:05.380 and that
00:27:05.680 the drones
00:27:06.080 themselves have
00:27:06.760 some electronic
00:27:07.540 surveillance
00:27:08.720 equipment,
00:27:10.220 and that
00:27:10.760 they're looking
00:27:11.240 for a
00:27:11.720 response,
00:27:12.600 and then
00:27:12.920 they're measuring
00:27:13.460 the response
00:27:14.180 so that if
00:27:15.220 there ever
00:27:15.660 were a
00:27:16.300 real attack,
00:27:17.940 they could
00:27:19.020 anticipate what
00:27:19.960 the American
00:27:20.660 military would
00:27:21.360 do.
00:27:22.400 And I
00:27:23.260 find that
00:27:23.900 explanation
00:27:24.820 very good
00:27:26.420 for maybe
00:27:27.460 some of
00:27:28.020 it.
00:27:29.000 Yeah,
00:27:29.160 we'll talk
00:27:29.460 about the
00:27:29.780 speed next.
00:27:30.940 Speed's coming
00:27:31.540 up.
00:27:32.200 So,
00:27:32.540 those that
00:27:33.000 do not
00:27:33.440 look like
00:27:33.900 they're
00:27:34.280 violating
00:27:34.960 physics
00:27:36.120 could be
00:27:37.380 just drones
00:27:38.640 that are
00:27:39.280 unidentified.
00:27:40.720 Now,
00:27:41.400 what about
00:27:42.180 the shape
00:27:43.580 that they
00:27:45.040 don't seem
00:27:45.440 to have a
00:27:45.860 form of
00:27:46.320 propulsion,
00:27:47.060 right?
00:27:48.020 We see
00:27:48.780 just a
00:27:49.200 shape,
00:27:49.580 and it's
00:27:49.920 oval.
00:27:50.720 It always
00:27:51.120 seems to
00:27:51.520 be oval.
00:27:52.000 there's
00:27:53.800 an
00:27:53.920 explanation
00:27:54.280 for that.
00:27:55.820 It's
00:27:56.100 infrared.
00:27:57.160 The
00:27:57.520 infrared is
00:27:58.600 not going
00:27:59.160 to necessarily
00:27:59.900 show you
00:28:00.460 the full
00:28:00.860 shape of
00:28:01.460 the thing.
00:28:02.560 The
00:28:03.040 infrared is
00:28:03.760 going to
00:28:03.980 show you
00:28:04.300 where the
00:28:04.720 heat
00:28:05.120 difference
00:28:05.580 is.
00:28:06.760 And if
00:28:07.300 it's a
00:28:07.680 bird,
00:28:08.740 it looks
00:28:09.200 like an
00:28:09.580 oval.
00:28:11.740 Yeah,
00:28:12.140 the cigar
00:28:12.740 shaped object
00:28:13.540 with no
00:28:14.100 propulsion is
00:28:15.440 what a
00:28:15.820 bird looks
00:28:16.400 like on
00:28:16.940 infrared.
00:28:17.960 Because you
00:28:18.480 don't see
00:28:18.860 the wings,
00:28:20.360 so it
00:28:20.700 looks like
00:28:21.020 there's no
00:28:21.420 propulsion.
00:28:22.600 But the
00:28:23.120 bird's
00:28:23.840 body is
00:28:24.620 a different
00:28:24.940 temperature
00:28:25.420 than even
00:28:26.520 its own
00:28:26.920 wings.
00:28:27.900 So the
00:28:28.320 body shows
00:28:28.900 up as
00:28:29.360 an oval,
00:28:30.560 because it's
00:28:30.980 an indistinct
00:28:31.760 object,
00:28:32.820 and the
00:28:33.720 wings don't
00:28:34.200 show up,
00:28:35.220 and it's
00:28:35.620 just that.
00:28:36.680 So you
00:28:37.140 got your
00:28:37.520 birds that
00:28:38.480 look like
00:28:39.440 that on
00:28:39.800 infrared,
00:28:40.280 they look
00:28:40.540 like ovals.
00:28:41.640 Now what
00:28:42.020 about the
00:28:43.140 defying
00:28:43.820 physics?
00:28:45.500 So the
00:28:46.200 defying
00:28:46.620 physics
00:28:47.060 thing has
00:28:47.680 also been
00:28:48.180 debunked,
00:28:49.140 and what
00:28:50.080 it is,
00:28:50.520 is that
00:28:51.020 if I can
00:28:51.920 do,
00:28:52.320 let's see
00:28:52.600 if I can
00:28:53.040 do a
00:28:55.120 visual
00:28:55.640 representation
00:28:56.620 of that.
00:28:58.160 I'll use,
00:28:59.080 all right,
00:28:59.860 I'll use my
00:29:00.360 wedding ring
00:29:00.920 here as
00:29:02.180 the
00:29:02.520 unidentified
00:29:03.340 object.
00:29:04.760 This remote
00:29:05.400 control is
00:29:06.580 the airplane
00:29:07.280 flying over
00:29:08.640 it and
00:29:09.020 looking at
00:29:09.480 it.
00:29:10.040 The
00:29:10.360 airplane's
00:29:10.940 camera has
00:29:12.380 to change
00:29:13.000 direction,
00:29:13.680 it's
00:29:14.360 looking
00:29:14.640 directly
00:29:15.060 down,
00:29:15.600 and then
00:29:15.820 as the
00:29:16.140 plane goes
00:29:16.520 by it's
00:29:17.020 looking
00:29:17.320 backwards,
00:29:18.560 looking
00:29:18.880 backwards,
00:29:19.940 right?
00:29:20.520 So the
00:29:21.200 perceived
00:29:21.720 speed of
00:29:22.660 the object
00:29:23.300 will be
00:29:24.400 altered by
00:29:25.300 the speed
00:29:26.260 of the
00:29:27.420 plane and
00:29:28.320 the angle
00:29:28.860 of the
00:29:29.500 camera.
00:29:30.600 And apparently
00:29:31.100 smart people
00:29:31.920 have looked
00:29:32.300 into it and
00:29:33.440 have determined
00:29:34.080 that just the
00:29:35.120 normal speed
00:29:35.800 of the plane
00:29:36.340 as is shown
00:29:37.540 on the
00:29:37.960 screen of
00:29:39.140 the UFO
00:29:39.600 video,
00:29:40.480 you can
00:29:40.760 just look
00:29:41.140 at the
00:29:41.400 actual
00:29:41.720 screen with
00:29:43.200 a UFO on
00:29:44.420 it and
00:29:44.720 it says
00:29:45.040 the angle
00:29:45.680 and the
00:29:46.080 height and
00:29:46.540 the speed
00:29:46.960 and you
00:29:47.800 have all
00:29:48.100 the information
00:29:48.640 you need
00:29:49.140 right on
00:29:49.600 the screen
00:29:50.080 that if
00:29:51.360 you were
00:29:51.680 smart enough
00:29:52.260 to do
00:29:52.560 the math
00:29:53.100 you could
00:29:54.100 calculate
00:29:54.500 that it's
00:29:55.020 a bird
00:29:55.400 and that
00:29:56.580 it's not
00:29:57.040 defying
00:29:57.440 physics,
00:29:57.900 it's just
00:29:58.840 an artifact
00:29:59.460 of the
00:30:00.000 camera moving
00:30:00.740 and the
00:30:01.460 angle moving
00:30:02.120 quickly at
00:30:03.320 the same
00:30:03.700 time as
00:30:04.280 the object
00:30:04.680 is moving
00:30:05.180 in another
00:30:05.580 direction.
00:30:06.460 So
00:30:06.900 Stardust is
00:30:08.140 saying the
00:30:08.600 effect is
00:30:09.180 called
00:30:09.460 parallax.
00:30:11.060 I believe
00:30:11.460 that's
00:30:11.720 right.
00:30:12.780 So
00:30:13.020 I believe
00:30:14.460 that is
00:30:15.060 every part
00:30:15.900 of the
00:30:16.200 UFO sightings
00:30:17.140 explained.
00:30:19.120 Sorry.
00:30:20.880 Sorry.
00:30:22.000 I hate to
00:30:22.480 ruin it
00:30:22.760 for you,
00:30:23.740 but I
00:30:24.320 don't think
00:30:24.680 there are
00:30:24.880 any UFOs.
00:30:26.200 Now you
00:30:26.540 add people
00:30:27.420 lying,
00:30:28.120 people
00:30:28.300 misremembering,
00:30:29.620 any number
00:30:31.020 of things,
00:30:31.820 and you've
00:30:32.720 got some
00:30:33.060 interesting
00:30:33.420 stuff.
00:30:34.180 Now here's
00:30:34.620 one I
00:30:34.980 wonder.
00:30:37.260 Remember
00:30:37.640 you saw
00:30:38.020 the drone
00:30:38.560 that seemed
00:30:39.600 to splash
00:30:40.340 into the
00:30:40.760 water and
00:30:41.360 I joked
00:30:41.800 about it
00:30:42.200 being a
00:30:42.540 bird?
00:30:43.280 It's
00:30:43.500 probably
00:30:43.760 a bird.
00:30:45.060 But
00:30:45.420 let me
00:30:46.780 ask you
00:30:47.100 this.
00:30:48.120 Is there
00:30:48.560 any such
00:30:49.200 thing,
00:30:50.340 wait for
00:30:51.000 it,
00:30:52.160 as a
00:30:52.760 submarine
00:30:53.440 launched
00:30:54.520 drone?
00:30:55.980 Eh?
00:30:57.560 Eh?
00:30:58.700 Because I'll
00:30:59.460 bet there is
00:31:00.100 by now.
00:31:02.640 Or at the
00:31:03.340 very least,
00:31:04.920 we're definitely
00:31:05.720 trying to make
00:31:06.440 one,
00:31:07.040 because what
00:31:07.720 could be
00:31:08.060 more useful
00:31:08.980 than a
00:31:10.660 submarine
00:31:11.480 that can
00:31:12.000 launch a
00:31:12.440 drone.
00:31:13.660 I can't
00:31:14.080 think of
00:31:14.340 anything
00:31:14.580 that would
00:31:14.840 be better
00:31:15.160 than that,
00:31:15.600 can you?
00:31:16.160 That would
00:31:16.560 be the
00:31:17.020 obvious,
00:31:17.680 most likely
00:31:20.040 thing that
00:31:20.640 you would
00:31:20.900 want to
00:31:21.260 invent,
00:31:22.080 is to
00:31:22.680 pair a
00:31:23.080 drone that
00:31:23.660 you can
00:31:23.900 launch from
00:31:24.560 your submarine.
00:31:25.500 Now,
00:31:26.360 does that
00:31:26.760 mean that
00:31:27.180 that was
00:31:27.560 a drone
00:31:28.380 going back
00:31:29.140 in the
00:31:29.380 water and
00:31:30.120 returning to
00:31:30.880 its submarine?
00:31:31.420 It could be,
00:31:33.660 but more likely
00:31:34.820 a bird,
00:31:35.720 just trying to
00:31:36.380 get a fish,
00:31:36.960 but it
00:31:38.020 could be.
00:31:40.300 So,
00:31:40.860 everything you
00:31:41.260 say about
00:31:41.600 speed is
00:31:42.540 that parallax
00:31:43.360 thing and
00:31:44.120 has to do
00:31:44.660 with the
00:31:44.880 camera angle
00:31:45.480 and they're
00:31:46.500 not really
00:31:46.900 moving like
00:31:47.540 that.
00:31:48.200 It just
00:31:48.560 looks like
00:31:49.500 it.
00:31:50.600 All right,
00:31:51.100 I got the
00:31:52.600 idea that
00:31:53.420 at least
00:31:55.220 some of
00:31:55.580 them are
00:31:56.300 drones from
00:31:57.580 enemies from
00:31:58.260 Tyler Rogoway
00:31:59.880 in an article
00:32:01.020 in The Drive,
00:32:02.180 so I'll give
00:32:02.540 them credit
00:32:02.900 for that.
00:32:04.880 There's a
00:32:05.560 report today
00:32:06.320 that the
00:32:07.020 Pentagon has
00:32:07.780 a shadow
00:32:08.340 army of
00:32:09.020 60,000
00:32:09.960 people in
00:32:11.260 a secret
00:32:11.760 force with
00:32:12.680 900 billion
00:32:13.720 budget.
00:32:15.720 900 billion?
00:32:17.320 I hope I'm
00:32:18.200 reading that
00:32:18.640 wrong.
00:32:19.400 900 billion?
00:32:22.340 Is that
00:32:23.040 right?
00:32:24.480 That can't
00:32:25.280 be right.
00:32:25.780 I just
00:32:26.060 copied and
00:32:26.620 pasted this
00:32:27.180 from an
00:32:27.540 article,
00:32:28.560 but really?
00:32:29.840 900 billion?
00:32:32.680 That can't
00:32:33.500 be right,
00:32:34.380 right?
00:32:34.640 I feel
00:32:35.740 like that
00:32:36.040 could be
00:32:36.320 900 million,
00:32:38.440 but it
00:32:39.240 says billion,
00:32:40.600 but I
00:32:41.840 don't believe
00:32:42.400 that we're
00:32:42.720 spending almost
00:32:43.520 a trillion
00:32:44.020 dollars on
00:32:44.620 a secret
00:32:45.040 army,
00:32:46.120 and we're
00:32:46.480 just finding
00:32:46.860 out about
00:32:47.260 it.
00:32:48.260 Can the
00:32:49.060 Pentagon
00:32:49.400 hide a
00:32:50.080 trillion dollars
00:32:50.680 a year?
00:32:52.660 What?
00:32:54.120 I'm a little
00:32:54.780 confused by
00:32:55.440 this reporting,
00:32:56.600 but apparently
00:32:57.300 this secret
00:32:58.520 force are
00:32:59.880 people who
00:33:00.480 are like a
00:33:01.380 force multiplier
00:33:02.340 for our
00:33:02.880 intel agencies,
00:33:04.060 but they
00:33:05.040 don't report
00:33:05.880 on the
00:33:07.100 payroll.
00:33:08.320 So they're
00:33:09.560 basically people
00:33:11.260 who are just
00:33:11.920 pretending to be
00:33:12.780 regular people,
00:33:13.960 and if they
00:33:14.460 were caught,
00:33:15.120 they would have
00:33:15.560 no connection
00:33:16.320 that could be
00:33:17.160 determined to
00:33:18.080 intelligence agencies
00:33:19.980 except by their
00:33:20.960 activities, I guess.
00:33:23.180 So I had
00:33:25.280 two responses
00:33:27.280 to this.
00:33:27.880 Number one,
00:33:28.940 I'm kind of
00:33:29.460 glad we're
00:33:29.960 doing this,
00:33:30.600 because obviously
00:33:31.300 China is.
00:33:32.820 Other countries
00:33:33.480 must be doing
00:33:34.080 it.
00:33:34.700 So I would
00:33:35.360 think that
00:33:36.080 this is
00:33:37.060 something very
00:33:37.740 useful for
00:33:38.540 our national
00:33:39.020 defense,
00:33:39.900 but it sure
00:33:40.660 is scary.
00:33:43.280 It's kind of
00:33:44.000 scary to find
00:33:44.720 out that your
00:33:45.160 government is
00:33:45.680 doing this
00:33:46.040 stuff, but we
00:33:46.720 probably need
00:33:47.260 it.
00:33:47.740 I'm not going
00:33:48.260 to complain
00:33:48.660 about it.
00:33:49.140 I don't know
00:33:49.500 enough about
00:33:49.940 it.
00:33:51.320 So I think
00:33:52.220 we should start
00:33:53.200 calling the
00:33:53.940 capital insurrection
00:33:55.460 stuff a hoax,
00:33:57.320 and we should
00:33:58.120 just append
00:33:58.840 the hoax to
00:33:59.580 it like we
00:34:00.140 did with
00:34:00.580 the drinking
00:34:01.960 bleach hoax
00:34:02.700 and the
00:34:03.280 fine people
00:34:04.020 hoax and
00:34:05.000 the Russian
00:34:06.120 collusion hoax
00:34:07.000 and the other
00:34:07.500 hoaxes.
00:34:08.340 So I think
00:34:09.060 that someone
00:34:09.580 needs to write
00:34:10.320 the book of
00:34:11.200 hoaxes for
00:34:13.520 the last
00:34:14.500 several years
00:34:15.200 because there
00:34:17.680 are some really
00:34:18.160 interesting stories
00:34:19.080 about how all
00:34:19.660 these hoaxes
00:34:20.500 came about.
00:34:22.060 But there's a
00:34:23.020 short video clip
00:34:24.440 on Rumble
00:34:25.200 that I
00:34:26.400 retweeted this
00:34:27.460 morning, and
00:34:28.760 it's a clip
00:34:29.460 showing the
00:34:29.900 Capitol Police
00:34:30.720 talking to a
00:34:32.860 couple of the
00:34:33.300 protesters that
00:34:34.100 you've seen on
00:34:34.680 video, including
00:34:35.560 the Viking
00:34:38.600 horn guy.
00:34:40.380 So the guy
00:34:42.220 standing next to
00:34:42.940 the Viking
00:34:43.300 horn guy has
00:34:44.180 got a little
00:34:44.640 some kind of
00:34:45.740 a loudspeaker
00:34:46.760 system, and
00:34:48.180 he's telling the
00:34:48.880 other protesters,
00:34:50.000 or whatever you
00:34:50.580 want to call
00:34:50.960 them, he's
00:34:51.980 telling them,
00:34:52.520 okay, the
00:34:53.800 police will
00:34:54.540 work with us,
00:34:55.300 the Capitol
00:34:55.720 Police, and
00:34:56.960 you can see the
00:34:57.460 Capitol Police
00:34:58.020 standing right
00:34:58.560 next to them,
00:34:59.780 having a civil
00:35:01.260 conversation about
00:35:02.280 what they could
00:35:02.960 or could not
00:35:03.560 do, and the
00:35:04.940 police were
00:35:05.400 essentially telling
00:35:06.200 them that if
00:35:07.500 they would agree
00:35:08.100 to be peaceful,
00:35:09.720 that the
00:35:10.120 Capitol Police
00:35:10.840 would sort of
00:35:11.500 let them
00:35:11.860 peacefully protest
00:35:12.860 as long as
00:35:13.440 they didn't
00:35:13.680 break anything,
00:35:14.400 basically, which
00:35:16.320 I think was
00:35:17.000 good policing.
00:35:18.780 Like, I feel
00:35:19.840 like the
00:35:20.340 Capitol Police
00:35:21.140 took the
00:35:22.540 energy out
00:35:23.380 of the
00:35:23.840 protesters in
00:35:24.860 exactly the
00:35:25.720 right way,
00:35:26.500 at least what
00:35:27.100 we saw on
00:35:27.540 video.
00:35:28.460 You know, I
00:35:28.760 told you, oh,
00:35:30.000 I didn't tell
00:35:30.400 you, on
00:35:31.040 Locals, I
00:35:32.020 gave a lesson
00:35:32.860 on how to
00:35:33.440 defuse a
00:35:34.220 fight using
00:35:35.600 hypnosis, and
00:35:36.960 I noted on
00:35:37.600 this video that
00:35:38.380 the Capitol
00:35:38.940 Police were
00:35:39.560 using the
00:35:40.040 same technique,
00:35:41.380 and the
00:35:41.940 technique is
00:35:42.700 you bring
00:35:43.160 your own
00:35:43.500 energy down.
00:35:45.080 So the
00:35:45.620 Capitol Police
00:35:46.320 were not
00:35:46.920 saying to the
00:35:47.500 protesters,
00:35:48.420 you don't do
00:35:49.100 this, if you
00:35:50.180 do this, I'll
00:35:50.740 kill you,
00:35:51.140 you know, if
00:35:51.980 you do this,
00:35:52.480 you're in
00:35:52.680 trouble.
00:35:53.360 That would
00:35:53.720 have just
00:35:54.020 sort of
00:35:54.480 ramped things
00:35:55.120 up.
00:35:55.940 The Capitol
00:35:56.500 Police were
00:35:57.040 just having
00:35:57.360 a conversation.
00:35:58.900 You know, if
00:35:59.260 you do this,
00:36:00.220 we'll let you
00:36:00.940 do this.
00:36:01.500 You know, don't
00:36:01.800 do this, but
00:36:02.980 you know, do
00:36:03.380 this.
00:36:04.720 Completely
00:36:05.160 controlled
00:36:05.920 their energy.
00:36:07.700 Really good.
00:36:08.900 In terms of
00:36:09.580 persuasion and
00:36:10.560 police work,
00:36:11.600 really, really
00:36:12.200 good.
00:36:12.500 Just drain the
00:36:13.560 energy out of
00:36:14.180 it.
00:36:14.920 But when you
00:36:16.840 see the clip,
00:36:18.100 it's so clear,
00:36:19.960 I mean, it
00:36:20.380 could not be
00:36:20.900 more clear,
00:36:22.320 that at least
00:36:23.220 this group of
00:36:24.440 protesters had
00:36:26.020 nothing on
00:36:26.640 their mind
00:36:27.240 except being
00:36:28.900 heard.
00:36:29.760 Nothing else.
00:36:30.460 It wasn't an
00:36:31.000 insurrection.
00:36:32.160 They weren't
00:36:32.480 trying to hurt
00:36:32.980 anybody.
00:36:33.440 They weren't
00:36:33.640 trying to take
00:36:34.220 over the
00:36:34.540 Capitol.
00:36:34.840 And it's
00:36:35.320 completely clear
00:36:36.420 that this
00:36:37.600 group, you
00:36:39.060 know, some
00:36:39.360 of the ones
00:36:39.720 who were most
00:36:40.200 famously
00:36:40.680 photographed, had
00:36:42.120 no bad
00:36:42.580 intentions.
00:36:43.140 intentions, right?
00:36:45.020 Now, that
00:36:45.700 doesn't say that
00:36:46.380 other people were
00:36:47.980 as free from
00:36:49.540 bad intentions at
00:36:50.760 all, right?
00:36:52.700 Ashley Babbitt was
00:36:53.820 going through a
00:36:54.480 window, and as
00:36:56.260 tragic as that is,
00:36:58.520 and I know you
00:36:59.060 don't like this, I
00:36:59.940 think it was a good
00:37:00.580 shoot, meaning that
00:37:02.660 she shouldn't have
00:37:03.840 been shot, right?
00:37:04.760 Like, we all
00:37:06.400 wish the whole
00:37:07.120 situation had been
00:37:08.040 different, but I
00:37:10.340 think that the
00:37:11.240 police officer who
00:37:13.620 took that shot has
00:37:15.800 been cleared, and I
00:37:17.460 agree with that,
00:37:18.120 actually, because if
00:37:19.240 people are coming
00:37:19.920 in with that
00:37:20.860 attitude into the
00:37:22.480 Capitol, they bring
00:37:25.460 it on themselves,
00:37:26.300 really.
00:37:27.040 I mean, I just
00:37:27.640 can't have any, I
00:37:29.560 don't have any more
00:37:30.340 sympathy for Ashley
00:37:31.500 Babbitt being shot
00:37:33.380 than I would for
00:37:34.460 somebody resisting
00:37:35.360 arrest being killed.
00:37:37.560 I care about them
00:37:38.460 on a human level,
00:37:40.120 but because they so
00:37:41.360 brought it on
00:37:42.300 themselves, I just
00:37:43.120 can't, I can't make
00:37:45.020 that my issue, really.
00:37:47.960 But certainly, now,
00:37:49.780 and I guess part of
00:37:50.460 the story is John
00:37:51.300 Solomon was reporting
00:37:52.360 that Pelosi and the
00:37:56.020 House are going to
00:37:56.620 vote on some kind of
00:37:57.860 9-11 style commission
00:37:59.580 to probe the January
00:38:00.740 6th, what they call
00:38:02.680 terrorist mob attack.
00:38:04.460 let's see, just got
00:38:12.120 an emergency text
00:38:13.340 here, I got to solve
00:38:20.760 this right now,
00:38:21.760 somebody's, somebody's
00:38:22.640 really, oh, got it.
00:38:26.820 all right, problem
00:38:34.480 solved.
00:38:35.740 I'm a problem
00:38:36.580 solver.
00:38:38.500 All right, let's see
00:38:41.000 what else we got going
00:38:41.760 on here.
00:38:42.960 Kind of a, kind of a
00:38:44.060 slow day.
00:38:44.540 That was one I wanted
00:38:50.760 to talk about today.
00:38:53.200 Does anybody have any
00:38:54.380 questions?
00:38:57.920 Yeah, I'm a problem
00:38:58.860 solver.
00:38:59.640 That's what I am.
00:39:00.500 I'm a problem solver.
00:39:03.580 So, I don't know if
00:39:05.380 you've seen this, but
00:39:06.120 there does seem to be
00:39:07.360 more and more, let's
00:39:09.780 say, feeling that our
00:39:11.080 government is not the
00:39:12.900 right tool for the
00:39:14.660 last part of the
00:39:15.760 pandemic, and that the
00:39:17.220 public is going to have
00:39:18.040 to just take a bigger
00:39:19.620 responsibility for
00:39:21.680 ourselves as well as
00:39:22.980 others.
00:39:23.860 Number one, there does
00:39:26.500 seem to be some
00:39:27.080 question about the
00:39:27.980 efficacy of the first
00:39:29.580 shot.
00:39:30.600 So, there is some
00:39:31.700 question whether that,
00:39:32.740 you know, 93% is real
00:39:34.380 or not, and I think we
00:39:35.920 need to wait on that.
00:39:43.860 Okay, apparently I did
00:39:45.080 not solve that
00:39:45.800 emergency, and it is
00:39:47.480 such an emergency that
00:39:48.740 I have to stop right
00:39:49.980 now, like right now,
00:39:52.800 so I have to end this.
00:39:53.980 But I will talk to you
00:39:55.040 tomorrow.
