Transcript

00:00:00.000 Well, good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's time to get your attitude adjusted.
00:00:08.600 Because, you know, sometimes the news is not so good.
00:00:13.100 But, luckily, I'm here to cheer you up about all those things.
00:00:17.660 A little dose of better attitude. Get that day going.
00:00:23.180 If I lecture you about vaccines, you're going to go.
00:00:26.940 Don't worry. There will be no lecturing you about vaccines. Indeed. Indeed.
00:00:33.700 Albury arguing that you do have a constitutional right to avoid them.
00:00:39.320 So you're going to like that part. But wait for it.
00:00:42.460 All right. Before we get going, it's time for this simultaneous sip.
00:00:46.200 The best thing that's ever happened in the history of the universe.
00:00:49.160 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass or a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask.
00:00:54.140 A vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:00:59.720 And join me now.
00:01:01.560 For the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine here today, the thing that makes, oh man, everything better.
00:01:06.620 Just everything.
00:01:07.780 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's going to happen now. Watch it. Go.
00:01:10.760 Well, I don't know if you know this, but there have been randomized, controlled trials.
00:01:22.360 And it's proven that people who participate in the simultaneous sip have a better day than the people who didn't.
00:01:30.200 Even the people who took horse dewormer instead.
00:01:34.860 No, it didn't help them.
00:01:36.040 But coffee did. Coffee did.
00:01:37.800 Well, Alyssa Milano, you know her.
00:01:42.220 Famous actress and supporter of Joe Biden.
00:01:47.040 Well, I'm going to give her the gutsiest tweet of the century award.
00:01:53.460 And she tweeted this yesterday.
00:01:55.960 And I'm not making this up.
00:01:58.480 This really happened.
00:01:59.620 So Alyssa Milano tweeted yesterday, I'm proud of POTUS and the incredible job he's doing.
00:02:08.140 He's the right person for the job in this moment in history.
00:02:11.880 Hashtag, I stand with Biden.
00:02:15.300 Now, I got questions.
00:02:19.560 I got questions.
00:02:20.760 Is Alyssa Milano the only person in the universe who hasn't noticed that there's kind of a big mistake Joe Biden made recently and maybe is still making?
00:02:34.580 We don't know.
00:02:38.120 She's proud of him.
00:02:40.280 She's proud of the job he's done.
00:02:42.140 And says he's the right person for the job in this moment in history.
00:02:48.260 And this raises an interesting question.
00:02:52.120 What would it look like if the worst person for the job had been in it?
00:02:57.840 Hmm.
00:02:59.240 Hmm.
00:03:00.280 What would the worst person for the job do?
00:03:05.580 I don't know.
00:03:06.640 The worst person?
00:03:07.780 Probably, I don't know, give names of people that are trying to escape from the Taliban to the Taliban.
00:03:18.660 Maybe that would be bad.
00:03:20.360 I think the worst person would do that.
00:03:23.680 Maybe when the Taliban offered America all of Taliban to control until the evacuations were over,
00:03:33.240 maybe the worst person in the world would say, we don't need all of Kabul.
00:03:38.360 All we need is a little airport.
00:03:40.460 We just need the airport.
00:03:42.660 That's sort of something that the worst person in the world might have said.
00:03:47.320 Anybody else would have said, yeah, you know, a better perimeter would be smarter.
00:03:51.320 We'll control Kabul until we're done.
00:03:54.180 That's what the Taliban offered them.
00:03:57.820 They turned it down.
00:03:59.880 What?
00:04:00.320 So thank goodness we don't have the worst person for the job.
00:04:09.480 Here's news that I consider fake news until somebody proves it's not.
00:04:15.520 And by the way, the giving the names to the Taliban, these were special cases.
00:04:26.000 It involved like a bus here or there, but it's still a real problem.
00:04:30.400 It wasn't all the names of all the people, but still pretty bad.
00:04:34.840 Although, to be fair, they don't have many options right now.
00:04:37.160 So the fake news is that Chase Bank closed General Flynn's account there
00:04:43.420 because they didn't want to associate with his reputational risk.
00:04:48.700 Do you believe that's true?
00:04:51.740 I saw this on social media, but I did not see it in the news.
00:04:55.840 That doesn't seem true.
00:04:56.980 I would say this is a little bit too on the nose, right?
00:05:06.300 I'm seeing Richard says it's true.
00:05:10.260 I'm seeing other people saying it's true.
00:05:13.860 Here's what I would look for.
00:05:16.660 I would only think this is true if it came from General Flynn's Twitter account.
00:05:21.880 If General Flynn tweeted this, well, it's true.
00:05:28.020 If he's the only person who didn't tweet it, or let's say he didn't tweet it at all,
00:05:32.400 or he just didn't mention it, it's not true.
00:05:37.320 Somebody says it's his own telegram.
00:05:40.160 Oh, Twitter banned him?
00:05:42.220 Let's say it comes from his account, though, some other account.
00:05:47.440 All right.
00:05:47.840 So I would say that I'm going to call this fake news
00:05:51.520 unless I heard it from him and from Flynn.
00:05:55.700 If somebody has something on social media that came from Flynn
00:05:58.840 that you actually did a screenshot yourself,
00:06:02.600 not a screenshot you saw,
00:06:04.880 but a screenshot you took yourself on social media of Flynn confirming it,
00:06:11.340 then I'll believe it.
00:06:12.520 So just...
00:06:13.360 His brother tweeted...
00:06:15.780 I don't trust his brother.
00:06:16.940 I wouldn't trust his brother.
00:06:19.500 I would trust only Flynn.
00:06:21.500 Any other source doesn't count.
00:06:24.020 But by the way, Richard Thomas,
00:06:27.900 more proof.
00:06:28.700 Scott's a right-wing shill.
00:06:31.420 I'm going to put you in timeout
00:06:33.300 because I'm going to hide you, Dick.
00:06:37.000 Literally, his name is Dick.
00:06:40.260 So, Dick, you're in timeout now.
00:06:43.340 So, what else we got here?
00:06:47.660 I love the daily CNN anecdotal persuasion.
00:06:52.360 So, as you know, CNN is trying to give you one story per day
00:06:55.880 of somebody who wishes they got the vaccine.
00:07:00.100 They sure wish they got vaccinated.
00:07:02.620 And they're going to be one a day forever
00:07:04.500 until you all get vaccinated, I guess.
00:07:06.380 So, this one was a woman hospitalized with COVID
00:07:09.580 comes home to find her husband has died from it.
00:07:14.020 So, she was in the hospital and didn't know that her husband
00:07:16.440 was literally home watching the pets,
00:07:18.840 and he died of it while she was in the hospital.
00:07:21.500 Now, there's no direct mention of whether they were vaccinated,
00:07:25.240 but they weren't vaccinated.
00:07:26.480 Yeah, I don't think so.
00:07:30.020 So, this is the sort of story you're going to hear a lot of.
00:07:33.060 Now, I'm not saying you should be persuaded by this.
00:07:35.140 In fact, I'm saying the opposite.
00:07:37.760 You should not be persuaded by anecdotes,
00:07:41.040 individual stories of something that happened to a person.
00:07:44.400 If that's what's persuading you, you're doing it wrong.
00:07:47.240 But the truth is, it is persuasive.
00:07:49.480 We do get persuaded by these little stories.
00:07:52.300 Here's another one.
00:07:53.180 So, Florida radio host, Mark Bernier, 65,
00:07:58.920 who disturbingly called himself Mr. Anti-Vax.
00:08:03.960 So, there's a conservative, Florida,
00:08:06.620 and Florida makes the story even more interesting, right?
00:08:10.260 Florida radio host, conservative,
00:08:12.620 called himself Mr. Anti-Vax.
00:08:15.640 Can you finish the rest of the story
00:08:17.480 without even knowing what it is?
00:08:18.820 So, there was an old guy, 65,
00:08:24.740 called himself Mr. Anti-Vax,
00:08:27.080 and he was quite proud of it.
00:08:28.640 How do you think the story ends?
00:08:31.480 That's right.
00:08:32.300 He died.
00:08:33.460 Didn't get vaccinated, and he died of COVID.
00:08:36.780 Now, you knew that was going to be the end of the story, right?
00:08:40.500 Because it's anecdotal persuasion.
00:08:42.720 And if the story has that little twist,
00:08:46.760 oh, he was anti-vax,
00:08:48.900 and he died.
00:08:52.240 Yes, you're right, Anne-Marie, 65 is not old.
00:08:54.980 I correct.
00:08:55.760 I correct myself.
00:08:58.960 But, certainly in terms of COVID,
00:09:01.400 it's within the risk category-ish,
00:09:03.900 the beginning of the risk category, I'd say.
00:09:06.480 And he's the third broadcaster to die from COVID.
00:09:09.780 I think they mean the third conservative one, right?
00:09:13.280 He's the third one who said,
00:09:14.860 don't get a vaccination,
00:09:15.840 and then he died because he didn't get a vaccination.
00:09:18.660 Is that it?
00:09:21.100 Yeah, the closer you get to 65,
00:09:23.080 the less old it seems.
00:09:25.180 I tell you, if I thought that...
00:09:26.900 So, I'm 64.
00:09:28.360 If I knew that being 64 felt the way it feels now,
00:09:34.360 I never would have been afraid of it,
00:09:37.280 because it feels pretty good.
00:09:38.780 I've got to say,
00:09:39.400 I'm probably as healthy as I've ever been in my whole life.
00:09:42.660 But this story about the Marc Bernier who tragically died
00:09:48.880 after branding himself Mr. Anti-Vax,
00:09:52.540 this is the type of story that tells you a lot about yourself.
00:09:57.540 Doesn't it?
00:09:58.220 What was your reaction to the story about somebody who was anti-vax
00:10:03.480 and then died because he didn't get a vaccine?
00:10:06.720 You kind of were amused.
00:10:08.740 Some of you were.
00:10:09.480 Some of you, you know,
00:10:11.220 maybe had a more human reaction
00:10:13.860 and just thought it was tragic and that's the end of it.
00:10:16.080 But I hate to tell you,
00:10:21.960 I was a little bit entertained.
00:10:24.900 And that says something really bad about me, doesn't it?
00:10:28.300 How many of you had the same reaction
00:10:30.020 and found out that you suck just like I did?
00:10:33.980 I found out I'm a bad person
00:10:35.980 because it kind of entertained me.
00:10:41.520 I mean, that's really bad, isn't it?
00:10:43.340 I'm being honest.
00:10:45.160 Now, I'm not saying that I'm proud of it
00:10:46.900 because it's not really a reaction you should be proud of.
00:10:50.740 But I suck.
00:10:53.720 I suck.
00:10:55.060 Yeah, and it's a tragedy
00:10:55.980 and I feel bad for the family.
00:10:58.660 But the reason it was in the news
00:11:00.400 is that somebody thought I would be entertained by it.
00:11:03.900 And they were right.
00:11:05.980 Sorry.
00:11:10.700 By the way, I don't care if you get a vaccination.
00:11:13.100 So it's not about that.
00:11:16.180 It's more about whether you suck as a human being.
00:11:18.340 And I guess I do.
00:11:20.920 So I'd like to say again
00:11:23.520 that there are two positions on ivermectin
00:11:26.440 which would reveal you to be not part of reason.
00:11:32.300 I've said this before, but I have to say it again.
00:11:34.320 If you're positive that it has been proven
00:11:36.920 that ivermectin works,
00:11:39.420 that hasn't happened.
00:11:41.560 So you're not really part of reason
00:11:43.240 if you think that happened.
00:11:44.580 But if you're positive it doesn't work
00:11:46.580 and that it's just horse dewormer
00:11:49.500 and it couldn't possibly work,
00:11:52.120 well, you're not part of reason there either.
00:11:54.220 Because there's plenty of evidence.
00:11:57.200 There just isn't proof.
00:11:59.320 And we get those two confused, right?
00:12:01.560 There's no...
00:12:02.240 I would agree that there's no proof
00:12:04.740 that ivermectin works,
00:12:06.980 but there's a ton of suspicious-looking evidence, right?
00:12:12.000 So if you're not uncertain about ivermectin,
00:12:14.860 you're in the wrong place.
00:12:15.800 I saw a graph today.
00:12:18.440 Somebody...
00:12:19.060 I think it was AJ Cortez
00:12:21.360 sent this graph on Twitter.
00:12:23.440 And it's a graph that's showing
00:12:24.400 that the African countries
00:12:26.580 that used ivermectin
00:12:28.360 have very low death rate from COVID,
00:12:31.760 whereas the African countries
00:12:33.320 that do not use it so much
00:12:34.980 have much higher,
00:12:36.680 much, much higher death rates.
00:12:38.980 So that's all you need to know, right?
00:12:41.140 If the countries in Africa
00:12:43.200 that used it
00:12:45.120 are doing relatively great,
00:12:47.540 and the ones that didn't use it
00:12:48.660 are doing relatively sucky,
00:12:51.080 that's all you need to know.
00:12:52.340 No, it's not about vitamin D.
00:12:54.200 It's not about sunlight,
00:12:55.620 because it's Africa.
00:12:56.680 We're only looking at Africa, right?
00:12:59.160 They got lots of vitamin D.
00:13:00.500 They got lots of sunlight.
00:13:01.960 So if it's only African countries,
00:13:05.060 and the ones using ivermectin did great,
00:13:07.520 and the ones who don't use it
00:13:09.460 did the same as everybody else not using it,
00:13:12.740 doesn't that tell you something?
00:13:14.380 Are you convinced?
00:13:16.280 Are you all convinced now?
00:13:19.040 Wait a minute.
00:13:20.620 Wait a minute.
00:13:21.980 What would be maybe wrong?
00:13:25.440 What would be maybe wrong with the data
00:13:27.840 just off the top of your head?
00:13:29.760 What do you think could be wrong with the data?
00:13:33.100 How about everything?
00:13:35.480 What would the countries that use ivermectin in Africa
00:13:43.600 have in common with each other?
00:13:46.220 And that would be different, perhaps,
00:13:48.280 than the countries who are not using ivermectin.
00:13:50.540 What would the users of ivermectin in Africa
00:13:53.500 have in common?
00:13:54.980 Well, somebody says malaria, maybe.
00:13:57.620 I don't know.
00:13:59.340 More developed, right, and less developed.
00:14:02.320 The more developed the country is,
00:14:04.440 the less likely they're using ivermectin.
00:14:06.860 What else would be a correlation
00:14:08.640 the more developed you are
00:14:10.380 and the better your health care is?
00:14:11.980 What would be another correlation?
00:14:15.720 Another correlation would be
00:14:17.580 you count your dead correctly.
00:14:20.920 Do you think that a country
00:14:22.660 that has to use ivermectin,
00:14:24.720 because they don't have good enough health care
00:14:26.420 to do anything else,
00:14:27.240 do you think that country
00:14:28.520 is counting their deaths correctly?
00:14:30.140 No, there's probably a perfect correlation,
00:14:34.140 or a really strong one, I would guess.
00:14:36.520 Not perfect.
00:14:37.660 There's probably a perfect correlation-ish
00:14:39.940 between countries that can't count their dead,
00:14:44.540 they're not testing them,
00:14:45.780 they don't know who died at home and who didn't,
00:14:48.900 and ones that don't have enough health care
00:14:50.620 to do anything but use ivermectin.
00:14:53.320 So, now, I'm not saying that's the explanation.
00:14:55.740 I'm saying it's a more obvious explanation
00:14:59.100 than ivermectin really works
00:15:01.340 and all the experts in the other countries
00:15:03.120 didn't notice, right?
00:15:05.700 So, compare the two possibilities.
00:15:08.740 I think my bird has visited me.
00:15:12.740 Oh, no, it's an actual human this time.
00:15:17.480 That's my security camera beeping at me.
00:15:20.760 So, take these two possibilities.
00:15:24.120 What is the greater possibility?
00:15:27.640 That the African study has good data
00:15:31.180 and it shows that ivermectin works,
00:15:34.480 but all of the industrial countries around the world
00:15:37.680 haven't noticed or don't believe it.
00:15:42.040 Is that likely?
00:15:43.160 Could be.
00:15:44.300 It could be.
00:15:44.740 I don't think you can rule that out.
00:15:46.300 It's perfectly possible
00:15:47.560 that there is data showing it works in Africa
00:15:50.360 that's not convincing to people who are experts.
00:15:53.080 Maybe.
00:15:53.980 And maybe it's even accurate.
00:15:55.600 But what's the other possibility?
00:15:57.800 The other possibility is that
00:15:59.600 it's exactly the countries
00:16:01.260 who are not good at counting their dead.
00:16:03.620 And that's the whole thing.
00:16:05.640 Could be the whole thing.
00:16:07.660 So, I wouldn't believe any graph
00:16:09.800 about ivermectin
00:16:12.000 or about one country compared to another.
00:16:14.000 Every time you do the...
00:16:16.320 Every time you do that kind of comparison,
00:16:20.560 it's misleading, I think.
00:16:22.520 All right.
00:16:24.400 Alex Berenson, who, as you know,
00:16:27.300 was skeptical of many things
00:16:29.040 the government was doing about this pandemic,
00:16:31.100 got banned by Twitter.
00:16:33.240 And I was reading an article.
00:16:35.840 Israel is not too happy with them.
00:16:37.820 So, Haaretz, a big Israeli publication,
00:16:43.660 was mocking him for his takes on Israel.
00:16:48.120 And apparently he was claiming
00:16:49.460 that the vaccinations weren't working too well in Israel.
00:16:53.320 So, this is an article in Haaretz.
00:16:56.080 So, this is their claim.
00:16:57.200 I'm just passing it along.
00:16:58.600 And the claim is that Alex Berenson
00:17:01.100 was saying that the vaccinations
00:17:02.800 weren't working in Israel.
00:17:05.220 So, his initial claim is that
00:17:07.200 they just weren't working.
00:17:08.700 It wasn't keeping anybody from dying.
00:17:11.240 But once the data was overwhelmingly
00:17:13.200 showing that that was true,
00:17:15.620 apparently he changed his attack to,
00:17:18.340 well, they might be preventing some COVID,
00:17:21.060 but what about these side effects?
00:17:23.200 And they started talking about the side effects
00:17:24.960 instead of the effectiveness.
00:17:27.080 Now, that should be your first flag, right?
00:17:30.560 That somebody's moving from their one criticism
00:17:32.620 and immediately goes to another criticism.
00:17:35.220 So, that's what I talk about
00:17:36.740 when I talk about the people
00:17:38.580 who brand themselves as the rogues,
00:17:43.540 the people who are on the other side of everything.
00:17:46.020 Once you're always on the other side of everything,
00:17:48.900 you don't have any credibility.
00:17:51.320 Now, that doesn't mean you're wrong.
00:17:52.720 And I'll say this a million times.
00:17:54.320 If anybody comes back to me later and says,
00:17:56.360 ha, ha, ha, Alex Berenson was right
00:17:59.100 and you were wrong,
00:18:00.080 I'm going to say, so?
00:18:01.440 I always allowed that that's possible.
00:18:05.220 It is 100% possible
00:18:08.100 that when this is all said and done,
00:18:10.660 Alex Berenson will be right about everything.
00:18:13.680 Completely possible.
00:18:15.140 I don't think so.
00:18:16.840 I'd bet against it.
00:18:17.960 I'd bet heavily against it.
00:18:20.280 We can't rule it out
00:18:21.280 based on what we know at the moment.
00:18:23.920 Because any data you think does
00:18:26.140 has disproved him.
00:18:27.600 I don't know.
00:18:28.460 All our data is crap.
00:18:30.040 I'm not sure anybody can disprove anybody these days.
00:18:35.640 All right.
00:18:37.040 Let's talk about your constitutional right.
00:18:40.500 I saw CNN said that you do not have a constitutional right
00:18:44.000 to avoid a vaccination.
00:18:46.400 What do you think?
00:18:47.060 Do you think you have a constitutional right
00:18:50.480 to avoid a mandatory vaccination?
00:18:58.340 So the argument is,
00:18:59.880 there are other vaccines that are mandatory
00:19:02.000 and those have passed constitutional muster.
00:19:05.760 So for example,
00:19:06.600 we all have to get a polio vaccination, right?
00:19:09.240 I think that's one of the examples.
00:19:11.380 And it's mandatory.
00:19:13.160 It's mandatory.
00:19:13.880 So doesn't that prove
00:19:16.960 that there's no constitutional right for it?
00:19:21.020 Well, here's the thing.
00:19:23.620 If you don't get the polio vaccination,
00:19:26.260 or there could be other vaccinations in this example,
00:19:29.460 but I'll just use polio,
00:19:30.940 you would be putting your fellow citizens at risk.
00:19:34.320 We all agree on that, right?
00:19:35.980 That if you don't get vaccinated,
00:19:38.300 at least that's what medical science is telling you,
00:19:40.800 that you would be putting other people at risk.
00:19:43.880 Do you have a constitutional right?
00:19:46.640 This would be CNN's argument,
00:19:48.160 which I'll argue against in a moment.
00:19:49.600 Do you have a constitutional right
00:19:51.460 to put other people at risk?
00:19:58.300 Well, apparently you don't.
00:20:02.680 Because if your freedom puts somebody else at risk,
00:20:05.460 that's where your freedom ends, right?
00:20:06.880 So do you have the freedom
00:20:08.560 to go take a crap in somebody's living room?
00:20:12.340 You do not.
00:20:13.540 Because that would have an impact on somebody else.
00:20:15.960 So your freedom generally is limited
00:20:18.620 when it starts having a big enough impact
00:20:20.680 on other people, right?
00:20:22.360 We all have to deal with our smaller impacts
00:20:24.900 on other people
00:20:25.580 because there's no way to prevent them.
00:20:27.580 But when it's the big stuff,
00:20:29.240 such as life and death,
00:20:31.560 yeah, then your freedom
00:20:32.940 is probably going to be limited
00:20:34.540 by what you're doing to other people.
00:20:36.780 Yeah, drunk driving would be an example, right?
00:20:39.580 So I agree with the argument
00:20:41.720 that the government can force you
00:20:44.560 to do things you didn't want to do
00:20:46.400 if it's good for other people.
00:20:53.940 Yeah.
00:20:54.840 I see your comment, Justin.
00:20:56.100 All right.
00:20:59.220 But here's my take on it.
00:21:03.600 What if you genuinely believe
00:21:07.380 it would be dangerous to you?
00:21:09.620 Now, I can't remember ever thinking to myself,
00:21:12.140 hey, if I get these polio vaccinations or other,
00:21:16.160 I don't remember ever thinking that it would kill me.
00:21:18.960 Like I was never afraid of it
00:21:20.260 because it felt like it was tested enough
00:21:22.180 even if it wasn't.
00:21:23.660 So at least I didn't feel like it was dangerous.
00:21:25.300 But what if you feel like,
00:21:27.920 whether you're right or wrong,
00:21:30.360 what if you feel like
00:21:31.880 the vaccination would be dangerous to you?
00:21:35.380 That's different, isn't it?
00:21:37.140 These vaccinations are not analogous
00:21:39.900 to other vaccinations.
00:21:41.460 Because with the other vaccinations,
00:21:43.200 you did have a fairly good feeling
00:21:45.780 that they'd been tested well enough,
00:21:47.860 they weren't that unique,
00:21:49.520 and that they were working against something
00:21:51.540 where a vaccination works.
00:21:52.760 Here we have a case where the vaccination works-ish,
00:21:58.220 but it still doesn't stop at cold.
00:22:01.700 And because it's newer and a little less tested
00:22:05.600 and newer technology,
00:22:08.160 there is some extra concern.
00:22:11.220 So here's my constitutional argument,
00:22:13.900 and it goes like this.
00:22:15.300 Yes, the government can force you
00:22:17.760 to do something with your body
00:22:19.320 that you didn't want to do
00:22:22.180 if there's not much danger to you in it,
00:22:26.540 and it would save other people's lives.
00:22:29.100 I take that as constitutionally solid.
00:22:32.220 I think the government can force you
00:22:34.040 to protect other citizens
00:22:36.080 if there's not really much of a risk to you.
00:22:38.620 But what if the government and you
00:22:42.300 have a very different opinion
00:22:43.660 about the level of risk?
00:22:45.580 What if you think the risk is unacceptably high,
00:22:49.540 even if it isn't?
00:22:51.580 And what if the government says,
00:22:53.140 no, it's low enough?
00:22:56.120 Well, here's the problem.
00:22:58.720 The government doesn't have the right
00:23:01.860 to make you harm yourself,
00:23:04.020 in your opinion.
00:23:05.160 Does it?
00:23:08.000 Can the government make you harm yourself,
00:23:10.800 in your opinion?
00:23:11.900 So I'm not saying it would harm you.
00:23:13.300 I'm saying that if it's your opinion
00:23:14.540 that it would harm you,
00:23:15.720 can they make you do that?
00:23:17.060 Because it doesn't really apply
00:23:18.400 to the other vaccinations too much.
00:23:21.620 Right?
00:23:22.340 You can...
00:23:24.320 You know, most people aren't too afraid of those.
00:23:26.460 I know the anti-vaxxers are,
00:23:27.920 but it isn't as big a deal as this is.
00:23:31.340 Right?
00:23:32.160 Anyway,
00:23:32.560 I think the constitutional argument
00:23:35.020 that the government can make you do it
00:23:37.760 doesn't apply to this.
00:23:39.960 So,
00:23:40.500 that's my take on the constitutionality.
00:23:44.320 Well, apparently North Korea
00:23:45.680 is firing up another nuclear...
00:23:47.880 Well, a nuclear reactor that they already had.
00:23:50.640 They're firing it back up,
00:23:52.320 and it's capable of producing
00:23:54.180 weapons-grade plutonium, we think.
00:23:56.880 And here's the question.
00:23:58.780 Would this have happened under Trump?
00:24:00.560 Now,
00:24:02.640 I probably would,
00:24:03.920 because I imagine that they need electricity
00:24:05.920 as much as they need to make bombs.
00:24:08.640 But,
00:24:09.000 you know,
00:24:10.280 it's being noted that it might be
00:24:12.240 a negotiating tactic.
00:24:14.160 And that's really just to get us back
00:24:15.820 to the negotiating table.
00:24:17.220 But what exactly are we negotiating about?
00:24:20.500 Does North Korea need anything?
00:24:23.000 I mean,
00:24:23.340 are we negotiating with them?
00:24:24.620 My best guess
00:24:27.240 is that they probably
00:24:27.980 just need electricity,
00:24:29.200 and this is how they can get it.
00:24:32.180 So,
00:24:32.780 I feel as though
00:24:33.600 we would be safer under Trump,
00:24:35.620 because even if Trump
00:24:36.600 didn't like this,
00:24:38.260 he'd probably at least
00:24:39.200 have a friendlier interaction
00:24:40.620 with them,
00:24:41.360 which would make us all safer.
00:24:43.640 I don't know what Biden's going to do,
00:24:45.080 threaten him.
00:24:46.260 What good's that going to do?
00:24:49.880 Here's another dog
00:24:51.300 that's not barking.
00:24:52.120 Where's my anonymous reports
00:24:55.080 about all the generals
00:24:56.260 privately disagreeing with Biden
00:24:58.320 about the Afghanistan withdrawal?
00:25:01.240 Where's that?
00:25:03.220 Are you telling me
00:25:04.120 you can't produce
00:25:05.140 one anonymous story,
00:25:07.760 anonymously sourced story,
00:25:09.860 about the conversation
00:25:11.720 in the room
00:25:12.520 when the decisions
00:25:14.520 were being made?
00:25:20.460 I don't know.
00:25:21.560 It feels like
00:25:22.320 there's something missing here,
00:25:23.560 right?
00:25:24.440 Because don't you think
00:25:25.440 that if Trump were president,
00:25:27.340 we'd have anonymous stories
00:25:28.700 that the generals said clearly,
00:25:30.940 do not do this,
00:25:32.140 Mr. President.
00:25:33.380 And then the president,
00:25:35.000 in his orange badness,
00:25:37.720 decided to do it anyway
00:25:39.080 for political
00:25:39.980 or financial gain.
00:25:41.720 Right?
00:25:42.400 That's the story, right?
00:25:44.060 If Trump had been president,
00:25:45.620 you'd have all these
00:25:46.300 anonymous reports
00:25:47.280 where he was just being dumb
00:25:49.180 and he said all the right things
00:25:50.380 and he was racist.
00:25:51.180 And none of it would be true.
00:25:53.380 It wouldn't be true,
00:25:54.660 but it would definitely exist.
00:25:57.280 Those stories would be there.
00:25:59.320 And you can see now
00:26:00.780 that apparently
00:26:02.180 that kind of story
00:26:03.320 gets invented by the left
00:26:04.680 more than the right.
00:26:06.320 Because if the news
00:26:07.520 on the right
00:26:08.040 invented bullshit stories
00:26:10.080 as much as the left,
00:26:12.580 at least in this category
00:26:13.560 of stories,
00:26:14.680 you'd already see it.
00:26:15.620 You know,
00:26:16.540 somebody would be reporting
00:26:18.020 an anonymous source
00:26:19.340 tried to tell Biden
00:26:20.960 not to do it,
00:26:21.720 but he just wouldn't listen.
00:26:24.220 I don't know.
00:26:24.780 I'd like to hear
00:26:25.280 what happened
00:26:25.720 behind closed doors.
00:26:27.800 And the news
00:26:29.400 is suspiciously
00:26:30.540 not telling us.
00:26:32.060 Well, Rasmussen
00:26:32.720 did a poll
00:26:34.980 and asked people
00:26:35.600 about what they thought
00:26:36.420 about Biden's performance
00:26:38.540 on the withdrawal
00:26:39.440 of Afghanistan.
00:26:41.080 You would not be surprised
00:26:42.560 that 52% of respondents
00:26:44.360 said it was poor.
00:26:46.120 Poor job.
00:26:48.180 Here's the surprising part.
00:26:51.220 32% of likely voters
00:26:53.220 in this Rasmussen poll
00:26:55.120 think that
00:26:57.320 that Biden's job
00:26:59.640 in withdrawing
00:27:00.260 from Afghanistan
00:27:01.040 was either good
00:27:02.840 or excellent.
00:27:04.820 One-third
00:27:05.680 of the public,
00:27:07.760 the voting public,
00:27:09.240 not even the people
00:27:10.220 who aren't paying attention,
00:27:11.940 the voting public,
00:27:13.240 the people
00:27:14.560 who pay attention
00:27:15.280 more than other people.
00:27:18.520 A third
00:27:19.380 of the voting public
00:27:20.760 thinks Biden
00:27:22.960 did an okay job
00:27:24.260 on the withdrawal.
00:27:27.580 What?
00:27:29.020 There's not even
00:27:30.060 a single news source
00:27:31.240 with that story.
00:27:33.820 There is not
00:27:34.780 one news outlet
00:27:36.520 saying he did this right.
00:27:39.060 Not the left.
00:27:40.160 Not the right.
00:27:42.480 Not the middle
00:27:43.240 if the middle exists
00:27:44.180 anywhere.
00:27:44.740 I don't know.
00:27:46.320 What the hell
00:27:47.540 is going on?
00:27:49.580 Are the Democrats
00:27:50.940 so dug in?
00:27:52.760 Are they going
00:27:53.560 Alyssa Milano?
00:27:55.280 Is this cognitive dissonance?
00:27:58.400 Is it confirmation bias?
00:28:00.840 What is this?
00:28:02.660 I mean, seriously.
00:28:03.920 You expect
00:28:04.700 some kind of a split
00:28:06.420 like this
00:28:07.140 when the sides
00:28:08.720 disagree.
00:28:10.320 You know,
00:28:10.520 if the news
00:28:11.140 is reporting
00:28:11.760 differently
00:28:12.640 on the right
00:28:13.300 and the left
00:28:13.840 about who did well
00:28:14.860 or who didn't,
00:28:16.180 well,
00:28:16.520 then you'd have
00:28:17.100 a split population.
00:28:19.640 But what happens
00:28:20.400 when the news
00:28:20.980 on the left
00:28:21.560 and the right
00:28:22.320 both know
00:28:23.560 that Biden blew it
00:28:24.580 and they're
00:28:25.240 completely consistent?
00:28:26.880 I don't believe
00:28:27.640 there's anybody
00:28:28.280 going on the news
00:28:29.120 on any outlet
00:28:29.940 saying,
00:28:30.360 well,
00:28:30.440 this looked
00:28:30.740 pretty good to me.
00:28:32.200 I don't think so.
00:28:34.140 How in the world
00:28:35.160 do 32%
00:28:37.140 say,
00:28:38.480 well,
00:28:38.820 that's pretty good.
00:28:39.980 That's a good job.
00:28:43.220 Well,
00:28:43.780 yes,
00:28:44.380 okay,
00:28:44.740 blaming it on Trump.
00:28:45.560 Yes,
00:28:45.740 some might be
00:28:46.240 blaming it on Trump.
00:28:48.100 That could be.
00:28:49.540 Some might be saying,
00:28:50.820 you know,
00:28:51.200 it doesn't matter
00:28:51.840 how we get out,
00:28:52.580 just get out.
00:28:53.800 Maybe.
00:28:55.020 Some might be saying,
00:28:56.200 well,
00:28:56.360 it's going to be messy
00:28:57.100 no matter what you do.
00:28:58.140 It would have been messy
00:28:58.980 if Trump did it too.
00:29:00.460 Maybe.
00:29:01.240 Maybe.
00:29:02.080 But
00:29:02.440 I don't know
00:29:03.680 how you can argue
00:29:04.560 that it's not going poorly.
00:29:06.420 You could argue
00:29:07.060 that maybe it would have
00:29:07.860 gone poorly
00:29:08.380 no matter who did it.
00:29:10.500 But you can't argue
00:29:11.340 it's not going poorly.
00:29:13.400 Now,
00:29:13.960 let me throw
00:29:15.300 a compliment
00:29:16.440 to Biden,
00:29:17.340 okay?
00:29:18.480 When Biden said
00:29:19.480 we are going to get out
00:29:20.740 by this date
00:29:21.680 that the Taliban set,
00:29:23.520 most of the reporting
00:29:24.700 on the left
00:29:25.280 and the right
00:29:25.760 said,
00:29:26.220 oh,
00:29:26.480 that's a big mistake
00:29:27.480 because I'm not sure
00:29:28.640 we could make that happen.
00:29:30.020 And
00:29:30.320 the people
00:29:31.400 who are below Biden
00:29:32.740 in the administration
00:29:33.520 are saying it's not
00:29:34.400 going to happen.
00:29:35.540 So it looks like
00:29:36.320 a big old mistake,
00:29:37.200 right?
00:29:38.220 No.
00:29:39.380 No.
00:29:39.800 If Trump were doing
00:29:40.480 the same thing,
00:29:41.140 I would be supporting
00:29:41.980 him the same way.
00:29:43.140 It goes like this.
00:29:44.980 Biden is talking
00:29:46.060 to the Taliban.
00:29:48.320 Right?
00:29:48.900 And he's trying
00:29:49.500 to treat them
00:29:50.240 as respected partners
00:29:52.320 at least long enough
00:29:54.280 to get our people out.
00:29:56.080 Right?
00:29:56.280 What he says
00:29:56.860 after we get our people out
00:29:57.940 might be different.
00:29:58.620 But at the moment,
00:30:00.660 Biden is saying
00:30:01.600 he will respect
00:30:02.340 the deadline
00:30:02.920 because he's respecting
00:30:03.960 their right
00:30:05.800 to put a deadline
00:30:06.800 on it.
00:30:07.980 And here's
00:30:08.660 the second part.
00:30:10.860 I've seen this
00:30:11.580 in management
00:30:12.100 a million times.
00:30:14.000 You know,
00:30:14.200 the CEO will say,
00:30:15.240 I need this in two weeks.
00:30:16.480 And all the underlings
00:30:17.480 say,
00:30:17.820 you can't do this
00:30:18.500 in two weeks.
00:30:19.460 This will take a month
00:30:20.680 no matter what.
00:30:22.080 And then the CEO says,
00:30:23.400 yeah,
00:30:23.620 but you're going to do it
00:30:24.260 in two weeks.
00:30:25.800 And then the underlings
00:30:26.640 say,
00:30:26.960 I don't think you heard us.
00:30:27.840 This cannot be done
00:30:29.040 in two weeks.
00:30:30.220 And then the CEO says,
00:30:31.700 do it in two weeks.
00:30:33.460 And then they go do it
00:30:34.500 in two weeks.
00:30:36.200 Right?
00:30:36.640 So it looks like
00:30:37.740 Biden did that.
00:30:38.680 It looks like
00:30:39.340 everybody said
00:30:40.120 it's impossible.
00:30:41.400 It looks like
00:30:41.980 Biden said,
00:30:42.760 do it anyway.
00:30:44.120 And I think
00:30:44.800 he's going to get
00:30:45.360 pretty close.
00:30:47.220 At least in terms
00:30:48.160 of the people
00:30:48.560 we can get out.
00:30:49.420 Now the problem is
00:30:50.180 there are people
00:30:51.120 who can't get
00:30:51.600 to the airport,
00:30:52.360 right?
00:30:52.820 And there will be
00:30:53.320 stragglers forever.
00:30:54.300 But I'm not convinced
00:30:56.580 we won't have
00:30:57.420 some kind of
00:30:58.200 a system
00:30:58.660 to get them out.
00:31:00.280 I think it'll be
00:31:01.480 a bunch of
00:31:02.820 different efforts.
00:31:04.040 I think we'll have
00:31:04.640 to peck away
00:31:05.500 at it for a long time.
00:31:07.140 Maybe privately
00:31:07.940 people will do
00:31:08.720 some things
00:31:09.460 as well as
00:31:09.960 government stuff.
00:31:11.000 Other governments
00:31:11.700 will help us,
00:31:12.560 et cetera.
00:31:13.480 But I don't know,
00:31:15.320 at least in that
00:31:16.060 narrow sense
00:31:17.120 of Biden
00:31:18.240 sticking to the deadline,
00:31:19.860 I think he probably
00:31:20.940 made the right choice
00:31:22.020 on that,
00:31:22.620 even though it
00:31:24.260 looks stupid
00:31:24.840 persuasion-wise
00:31:26.420 and negotiation-wise
00:31:27.620 and managing
00:31:28.820 the Taliban's
00:31:29.700 attitude,
00:31:30.220 which matters
00:31:30.780 because we can't
00:31:32.040 go hard at them
00:31:32.740 while we still
00:31:33.380 need them.
00:31:34.740 So I think
00:31:35.600 the deadline thing
00:31:37.080 might have been
00:31:37.720 the right move
00:31:38.600 or the only move
00:31:39.200 he could make.
00:31:41.400 I'm seeing some
00:31:42.220 Mike Cernovich
00:31:42.840 tweets about
00:31:45.000 the missile attack.
00:31:46.340 So there was
00:31:46.780 a second response,
00:31:48.600 I guess.
00:31:49.260 The U.S.
00:31:49.740 did a missile attack
00:31:50.680 or a drone strike,
00:31:51.840 whatever it was,
00:31:52.880 on a Kabul neighborhood
00:31:54.420 that allegedly killed
00:31:56.540 something like
00:31:57.300 six to nine people,
00:31:58.600 maybe 20.
00:32:00.140 It's a fog of war,
00:32:01.060 we don't know.
00:32:01.780 There were children
00:32:02.300 among the dead,
00:32:03.740 allegedly.
00:32:04.480 We don't know that
00:32:05.120 for sure either,
00:32:06.460 although they're
00:32:07.020 photographs.
00:32:07.960 We assume that
00:32:08.580 they're accurate
00:32:09.000 photographs.
00:32:11.400 And I guess
00:32:12.080 the U.S.
00:32:12.860 has not confirmed
00:32:13.600 who was or was
00:32:15.120 not killed,
00:32:15.940 but there were
00:32:16.600 secondary explosions,
00:32:18.140 so I guess they
00:32:18.700 targeted a car
00:32:19.800 or a vehicle,
00:32:20.680 that allegedly
00:32:21.820 had some suicide
00:32:22.620 attackers in it,
00:32:24.320 but the explosion
00:32:26.160 caused secondary
00:32:27.200 explosions,
00:32:28.000 and I guess
00:32:28.280 a building blew up.
00:32:29.740 Now, that doesn't
00:32:30.380 necessarily mean
00:32:31.640 that there were
00:32:32.140 explosives in the
00:32:33.080 building,
00:32:33.640 but it's indicated
00:32:34.520 there might have been.
00:32:37.420 So,
00:32:38.900 did you notice
00:32:40.500 there's not much
00:32:41.240 news on it?
00:32:43.020 So, I saw
00:32:43.900 the Cernovich tweets,
00:32:46.800 and I thought to myself,
00:32:47.840 my God,
00:32:48.280 that's a big story.
00:32:49.080 And then I went
00:32:50.460 to the news
00:32:51.340 to check on the
00:32:52.100 story.
00:32:53.300 And it's almost
00:32:54.380 being ignored
00:32:55.300 in American media.
00:32:58.580 CNN has one,
00:32:59.980 you know,
00:33:00.280 minor headline on it,
00:33:01.760 and the headline
00:33:02.960 doesn't even refer
00:33:03.980 to it directly.
00:33:05.760 Like, you have to
00:33:06.320 get into the story
00:33:07.080 to find out
00:33:07.620 it even happened.
00:33:08.800 So they're definitely
00:33:09.940 underplaying it.
00:33:11.380 CNN is underplaying
00:33:12.580 the hell out of this.
00:33:13.420 And I had to read
00:33:16.680 about it in
00:33:17.340 foreign press.
00:33:18.780 I had to read
00:33:19.260 about it in
00:33:19.840 The Guardian.
00:33:21.500 I had to read
00:33:22.260 about it in
00:33:23.260 Al Jazeera.
00:33:26.160 And I had to read
00:33:27.040 about it in
00:33:27.600 Spectator.
00:33:29.640 What country is
00:33:30.540 the Spectator?
00:33:31.220 I don't even know
00:33:31.580 what country that is.
00:33:32.760 Is that America?
00:33:34.200 Oh, Newsmax is
00:33:35.000 covering it,
00:33:35.480 somebody says.
00:33:36.640 UK.
00:33:37.520 Spectator's UK.
00:33:38.160 Well, there's
00:33:44.200 something disturbing
00:33:45.100 about how well
00:33:46.000 this is being
00:33:46.700 hidden from
00:33:47.420 American public.
00:33:49.280 And in fact,
00:33:50.460 if I hadn't seen
00:33:51.580 Cernovich's tweets,
00:33:54.080 I don't even think
00:33:55.020 I would have
00:33:55.400 noticed it.
00:33:56.580 Because it was
00:33:57.100 so silent in the
00:33:58.160 headlines that I
00:33:59.000 actually wouldn't
00:33:59.580 have noticed.
00:34:01.500 So somebody says
00:34:02.520 it's on CNN.
00:34:03.620 So is it on the
00:34:04.360 network?
00:34:05.680 Because the
00:34:06.340 news page on
00:34:07.980 the web is
00:34:08.580 just one little
00:34:09.220 mention of it.
00:34:10.000 It is mentioned,
00:34:11.340 but it looks
00:34:12.240 underplayed.
00:34:14.720 And maybe it
00:34:15.460 should be.
00:34:16.300 Because I have
00:34:17.800 mixed feelings
00:34:18.700 about civilian
00:34:21.020 casualties in
00:34:22.000 war if you're
00:34:23.500 targeting terrorists.
00:34:27.820 I mean, you
00:34:28.820 have to make
00:34:29.740 horrible choices,
00:34:31.460 and I tend to
00:34:32.720 be fairly
00:34:33.400 forgiving for
00:34:34.260 the people who
00:34:34.760 have to make
00:34:35.140 horrible choices.
00:34:36.440 It's war.
00:34:36.900 people die.
00:34:39.920 It's tragic.
00:34:41.260 And there's just
00:34:41.920 nothing that's
00:34:42.460 going to change
00:34:42.880 that.
00:34:43.880 Well, here's
00:34:44.320 something interesting.
00:34:48.920 There has been
00:34:49.820 one death from
00:34:52.180 the Pfizer vaccine
00:34:53.660 itself, maybe.
00:34:55.840 So it's confirmed
00:34:56.820 that the vaccination
00:34:57.600 caused this one
00:34:58.580 death.
00:34:59.220 But it's in New
00:34:59.860 Zealand, which I
00:35:00.740 find interesting.
00:35:02.000 Because I don't
00:35:02.540 have the numbers
00:35:03.280 yet, but New
00:35:03.960 Zealand is obviously
00:35:04.780 doing vaccinations,
00:35:05.660 but what makes
00:35:06.380 them unique is
00:35:07.820 that they're
00:35:08.400 closed up tight
00:35:10.000 from the virus
00:35:11.760 itself.
00:35:12.640 So they had
00:35:13.060 one case and
00:35:13.900 they closed the
00:35:14.560 country down
00:35:15.820 again, right,
00:35:16.300 for one case.
00:35:17.300 So what makes
00:35:17.840 New Zealand
00:35:18.280 interesting is
00:35:19.220 that if there
00:35:20.000 are vaccination
00:35:20.840 complications,
00:35:21.940 we should be
00:35:23.680 able to see
00:35:24.080 them more
00:35:24.740 cleanly in
00:35:25.620 New Zealand
00:35:26.040 than anywhere
00:35:26.660 else, right?
00:35:27.540 Because you
00:35:28.100 won't be seeing
00:35:28.720 any coronavirus
00:35:30.560 deaths.
00:35:31.340 deaths, so
00:35:32.300 they should
00:35:32.660 have zero
00:35:33.200 deaths, and
00:35:35.660 then, in
00:35:37.800 theory, they
00:35:39.040 would have a
00:35:39.500 pretty good
00:35:39.940 visibility on
00:35:40.860 how many people
00:35:41.460 the vaccinations
00:35:42.300 killed.
00:35:43.780 Now, they have
00:35:44.560 one case that
00:35:46.300 it looks like
00:35:47.480 it's highly
00:35:48.820 likely, because
00:35:49.880 there was some
00:35:50.280 myocarditis
00:35:51.780 involved, and I
00:35:52.580 guess that's the
00:35:53.340 tell for the
00:35:54.440 vaccinations being
00:35:55.380 the problem.
00:35:56.860 But there were
00:35:58.320 comorbidities
00:35:59.140 involved, and
00:35:59.960 it's not so
00:36:00.520 clear.
00:36:01.640 Maybe the
00:36:02.160 vaccine was
00:36:03.060 part of it.
00:36:04.480 Maybe it
00:36:04.860 wasn't.
00:36:06.600 But I keep an
00:36:07.480 eye on New
00:36:08.020 Zealand vaccination
00:36:09.200 related deaths.
00:36:11.180 We do believe
00:36:12.040 that there aren't
00:36:12.460 many of them, but
00:36:13.460 whatever there are,
00:36:14.460 it will be
00:36:14.800 highlighted there.
00:36:16.200 Now, again, if
00:36:17.620 you're going to
00:36:17.980 turn it off, because
00:36:18.700 I mentioned
00:36:19.180 vaccines, I'm
00:36:20.580 not promoting
00:36:21.120 it.
00:36:21.580 I'm just telling
00:36:22.200 you where we
00:36:23.300 might have some
00:36:23.880 good data.
00:36:25.040 That's all.
00:36:26.860 And then
00:36:29.320 lastly, lastly,
00:36:33.100 that was
00:36:33.600 lastly.
00:36:35.740 I'd like to
00:36:36.580 get to all the
00:36:37.340 notes on my
00:36:38.020 last page, but
00:36:39.440 there aren't
00:36:40.040 any.
00:36:40.600 It prints
00:36:41.040 it in an
00:36:41.320 empty page.
00:36:44.300 Yeah, one
00:36:45.080 death can
00:36:45.740 never be
00:36:46.680 clear.
00:36:47.160 That is
00:36:47.660 correct.
00:36:48.160 You probably
00:36:48.660 would need
00:36:49.120 some number
00:36:49.800 of deaths
00:36:50.480 to give
00:36:51.840 some kind
00:36:52.280 of statistical
00:36:53.040 confidence, but
00:36:54.620 yeah, one
00:36:55.340 death can
00:36:55.800 never really
00:36:56.260 tell you
00:36:56.520 anything.
00:36:56.860 But it
00:36:59.040 would tell
00:36:59.440 you something
00:36:59.860 if there
00:37:00.400 were so
00:37:00.760 few of
00:37:01.220 them that
00:37:02.240 you couldn't
00:37:02.640 tell anything,
00:37:03.600 right?
00:37:04.680 If we get
00:37:05.800 to the end
00:37:06.200 of this and
00:37:06.680 we have
00:37:07.000 one possible
00:37:09.360 death in
00:37:09.900 New Zealand
00:37:10.360 for vaccinations,
00:37:12.020 because remember,
00:37:12.660 this is a
00:37:13.080 national story.
00:37:13.880 It means it's
00:37:14.320 the first one,
00:37:15.320 I think.
00:37:16.560 Maybe we just
00:37:17.420 don't know about
00:37:18.040 any others.
00:37:18.860 But if you
00:37:19.200 only had one,
00:37:20.920 how many
00:37:21.520 people in
00:37:21.980 New Zealand
00:37:22.400 have gotten
00:37:22.900 a vaccination?
00:37:23.900 Millions?
00:37:24.340 Would you
00:37:25.840 say that
00:37:26.180 millions have
00:37:26.880 been vaccinated
00:37:27.520 in New
00:37:27.900 Zealand so
00:37:28.780 far?
00:37:29.800 Probably.
00:37:31.980 What's it
00:37:32.520 say?
00:37:35.600 Scott pretends
00:37:36.580 Alex doesn't
00:37:37.460 exist.
00:37:38.120 Sad.
00:37:39.200 You talk about
00:37:39.760 Alex Jones.
00:37:41.740 I don't pretend
00:37:42.660 he doesn't
00:37:43.160 exist.
00:37:43.720 I've been on
00:37:44.140 his show.
00:37:44.880 I like Alex
00:37:45.460 Jones.
00:37:45.740 That doesn't
00:37:49.320 mean he's
00:37:49.620 right about
00:37:50.000 everything.
00:37:50.760 But I say
00:37:51.320 that about
00:37:51.660 everybody.
00:37:55.220 I've said
00:37:55.840 this before.
00:37:57.000 If you
00:37:57.620 can't compliment
00:37:58.460 somebody you
00:37:59.080 disagree on,
00:38:00.260 then you
00:38:00.520 should check
00:38:01.720 yourself for
00:38:02.420 bias.
00:38:04.020 So I don't
00:38:04.760 agree, of
00:38:05.300 course, with
00:38:05.760 everything that
00:38:06.320 Alex Jones
00:38:06.780 says.
00:38:07.520 But he's a
00:38:08.880 nice guy.
00:38:10.120 I like him.
00:38:11.540 Very kind to
00:38:12.300 me.
00:38:12.940 Very generous
00:38:13.680 when I
00:38:14.580 interacted with
00:38:15.300 him.
00:38:15.740 And very
00:38:16.900 likable.
00:38:18.320 And obviously
00:38:19.120 very successful.
00:38:21.340 So Andy,
00:38:23.040 you know,
00:38:23.400 reportedly he's
00:38:24.100 been right
00:38:24.660 about a
00:38:25.240 number of
00:38:25.580 things.
00:38:26.640 So I have
00:38:30.220 some good
00:38:30.760 things to say
00:38:31.280 about that.
00:38:36.580 Yes, the
00:38:37.380 head of the
00:38:37.840 UN Climate
00:38:38.580 Summit, I'm
00:38:39.860 seeing in the
00:38:40.340 comments,
00:38:40.800 reminding me,
00:38:41.820 blocked the
00:38:42.840 nuclear energy
00:38:43.800 from attending.
00:38:44.520 that's right.
00:38:46.500 There's a
00:38:46.960 UN Summit
00:38:47.620 about the
00:38:48.100 climate, the
00:38:49.620 climate, and
00:38:50.860 they decided that
00:38:51.720 it wouldn't be
00:38:52.580 appropriate to
00:38:53.240 have the
00:38:53.560 nuclear industry
00:38:55.140 there.
00:38:56.460 I remind you,
00:38:58.400 the nuclear
00:38:58.860 industry is
00:38:59.560 probably the
00:39:00.560 only hope we
00:39:01.320 have of
00:39:02.340 changing anything
00:39:03.040 about climate
00:39:03.640 change, as
00:39:04.680 well as
00:39:05.240 controlling space
00:39:06.320 someday.
00:39:07.420 It's the only
00:39:07.940 hope we have.
00:39:09.120 Now, maybe
00:39:09.580 somebody will
00:39:10.120 invent something.
00:39:11.340 that's a
00:39:12.380 new hope, but
00:39:13.360 at the
00:39:13.620 moment, it's
00:39:15.580 the only hope
00:39:16.020 we have for
00:39:16.420 water
00:39:16.820 desalinization,
00:39:17.920 which will be
00:39:18.360 required, and
00:39:19.540 electricity that's
00:39:20.480 dependable.
00:39:21.040 It's our only
00:39:21.440 hope, and the
00:39:22.600 UN is going to
00:39:23.300 exclude those
00:39:24.240 people.
00:39:28.320 On up, says
00:39:29.220 Scott, take a
00:39:30.060 vacation for
00:39:31.260 everyone.
00:39:33.500 Well, maybe I'll
00:39:34.600 do that, but it
00:39:35.360 won't stop me from
00:39:36.580 live streaming on
00:39:38.380 vacation.
00:39:38.860 when you put
00:39:43.280 the money
00:39:43.620 filter on it,
00:39:44.320 everything looks
00:39:44.840 different, right?
00:39:45.860 So follow the
00:39:46.640 money.
00:39:46.980 That probably
00:39:47.460 has something to
00:39:48.100 do with the
00:39:48.580 nuclear industry
00:39:50.280 being frozen
00:39:50.880 out.
00:39:55.560 Yes.
00:39:57.620 All right, I'm
00:39:58.500 going to run,
00:39:59.920 and I will see
00:40:01.440 you tomorrow.
00:40:03.440 Talk to you
00:40:03.940 then.
