Summary

It's the one topic that doesn't seem to line up by party in the United States, and it's not by smart people or idiots. It's by dumb people and idiots. And it's the cleanest topic I've ever seen.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the best thing that will ever happen to you ever, ever in the rest of your life.
00:00:13.980 Somebody's saying that I kneel for the National Anthem.
00:00:16.520 No, no, I don't kneel for anything, just to be clear.
00:00:22.020 I'm not going to kneel for the National Anthem, and I'm not going to kneel for the Black National Anthem or any other anthem.
00:00:30.000 Because I'm not going to kneel for anything, period.
00:00:33.800 I might not stand up, but that's different. Not standing up is different.
00:00:39.180 Well, we'll get into all of that.
00:00:41.500 Let's say that on a controversy level, today will be a 10 out of 10.
00:00:46.040 Do you like your controversy and your news? Do you like it? I know you do.
00:00:50.440 You love it. You love it. Savor it. Savor it.
00:00:56.200 All right, if you wanted to make this day special, more special than it already is, and it's already pretty great.
00:01:03.280 All you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:01:09.820 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:01:14.400 Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Hold on. I'm getting a report.
00:01:18.440 Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do. This from Ben Greenfield, a tweet says,
00:01:23.340 A study of the Japanese adults found that higher intakes of coffee were associated with a 51% lower risk of dementia.
00:01:30.280 Yeah, and green tea didn't help a bit.
00:01:33.800 Well, screw your green tea. Coffee will take your dementia down to nothing.
00:01:39.940 And now, a simultaneous sip. Go.
00:01:47.720 I don't know about you, but I do feel my dementia going down a little bit.
00:01:53.960 Approximately 51%, 51%. That's what it feels like.
00:02:01.280 Ooh, antibodies. Antibodies. Coming online. Going hot.
00:02:06.020 All right. You know, most topics in the United States end up coming down to left and right.
00:02:13.960 You've got your Democrats and you've got your liberals.
00:02:17.020 You've got your conservatives and your Republicans on the other side.
00:02:21.180 But there is one topic that does not seem to line up by party.
00:02:27.540 It's the topic of federal legalization of weed.
00:02:30.780 It's the only topic that is lined up by smart people on one side and then stupid fucking idiots on the other side.
00:02:40.600 Am I wrong?
00:02:42.280 Because on the side that wants, you know, to legalize and stuff like that,
00:02:46.660 you've got your Rand Pauls, Republican.
00:02:49.080 He's in favor of loosening up on the federal stuff.
00:02:51.940 But you also have lots of Democrats.
00:02:55.960 And I would guess that if you took all the Republicans who were in favor of loosening up
00:03:00.840 and all the Democrats who were in favor of loosening up, you'd probably have something pretty good.
00:03:05.740 Why is anybody on the other side?
00:03:09.000 Yeah, the libertarians too.
00:03:11.180 Who's on the other side?
00:03:13.580 Because Chuck Schumer is, and I guess some Republican leadership is.
00:03:17.720 This is not about left or right, is it?
00:03:22.940 This is not about.
00:03:28.820 That's the weirdest comment I've ever seen.
00:03:30.700 I'm not going to read it.
00:03:32.260 I totally threw off my game.
00:03:36.160 You bastard.
00:03:37.780 You bastard.
00:03:38.740 You know who you are.
00:03:41.460 That's pretty funny.
00:03:42.860 All right.
00:03:43.300 I'm not going to share that with you.
00:03:44.400 But in the topic of weed legalization, really, let's stop calling this political.
00:03:53.040 There are well-informed people who think we should loosen up.
00:03:57.440 And there are fucking idiots who think we shouldn't.
00:04:01.360 That's it.
00:04:02.500 This is the one topic where it's just smart people and idiots.
00:04:05.700 And it's the cleanest, it is the cleanest topic I've ever seen on this.
00:04:09.840 Are there any other topics you've ever seen in which it broke down not by political party?
00:04:16.840 It broke down by smart people and fucking idiots?
00:04:20.380 Can you think of anything else like that?
00:04:22.260 Honestly, is there any other topic like that?
00:04:27.440 Yeah, term limits, I don't know.
00:04:29.280 Term limits sort of, I think that can be all over the place.
00:04:32.840 Bill Barr continues to be the most interesting person in political commentating because he's
00:04:48.220 doing this, something fairly heroic, which he's trying to turn the ship on his side.
00:04:56.760 But I swear to God, he's doing it single-handedly.
00:04:59.600 It's like he doesn't have any help at all.
00:05:01.200 And what I mean is he's the only person with one eye in the land of the blind.
00:05:07.340 And he's realizing what the left is doing.
00:05:09.960 He can see the overreach.
00:05:12.600 I guess that's the best way to say it.
00:05:14.800 He can see that he still likes the left in terms of general politics.
00:05:19.880 But he can see the overreach.
00:05:22.280 And he's trying to push back about that using his platform.
00:05:26.200 And he had an interview with Chris Cuomo that I definitely recommend you watch.
00:05:33.020 Because, and I hope I can do this justice.
00:05:38.340 But you have to see Bill Maher correct Cuomo in the gentlest way I've ever seen anybody corrected on anything.
00:05:47.500 And it's kind of brilliant.
00:05:51.980 I mean, my instinct was he should have gone harder at it.
00:05:55.640 But when I think about it a little bit more, I think the pacing and the leading are important.
00:06:01.180 So here's the setup.
00:06:03.240 Cuomo says that nobody even understands what CRT means, much less do we teach it in school.
00:06:09.480 It's not being taught in school, and nobody even knows what it means.
00:06:14.500 But it's definitely not being taught in schools.
00:06:17.020 So that's what Cuomo says on CNN, your trusted news source station.
00:06:22.300 He says this to Bill Maher.
00:06:24.080 Bill Maher, of course, knows this is a lie.
00:06:28.060 In kind, right?
00:06:29.840 It's not a direct lie, but it is intended to mislead.
00:06:33.700 It's not, clearly.
00:06:35.540 Because the answer is that the CRT ideas are baked into the curriculum in a lot of schools.
00:06:44.780 And they just don't call it CRT.
00:06:47.100 Because they're not teaching the theory.
00:06:49.060 They're just taking parts of it and embedding it in the curriculum.
00:06:53.280 So that gives CNN enough cover to say it doesn't exist.
00:06:59.400 But it does exist.
00:07:01.640 Bill Maher knows it exists.
00:07:03.160 He says he read up on it.
00:07:04.800 There it is.
00:07:06.100 It's on himself.
00:07:07.840 There's no question it exists.
00:07:09.660 It just isn't called that.
00:07:11.480 It's just embedded.
00:07:13.400 And you have to see how gently Bill Maher, without actually disagreeing with him, corrects him.
00:07:22.340 It's actually really, in terms of quality of communication, it's really good.
00:07:29.500 I don't know.
00:07:30.180 I was just impressed with how he did it.
00:07:32.200 That you could see somebody totally fact-checked.
00:07:35.960 And I guess here's the frame that makes it interesting.
00:07:39.500 CNN is supposed to be the news.
00:07:42.800 So CNN is the one that's supposed to be bringing the facts.
00:07:45.100 Their guest fact-checked them on live TV and didn't even get any pushback.
00:07:53.360 Because he did it so cleverly, there was nothing to push back.
00:07:58.800 It was really done well.
00:08:00.660 All right.
00:08:03.480 Nuclear energy is the new solar panels.
00:08:05.940 That's me talking.
00:08:07.800 Nuclear energy is the new solar panels.
00:08:10.540 Meaning it's the new thing.
00:08:13.480 It thing.
00:08:14.600 Indonesian government said they plan to replace their coal plants with nuclear.
00:08:18.580 Because they have some questions about the viability of solar and wind and geothermal.
00:08:25.040 Now, almost every story you've seen about nuclear energy in the past six months, all positive, right?
00:08:35.120 Any exception?
00:08:36.200 A hundred percent of the news coverage of nuclear energy for the last six months is positive.
00:08:45.500 You've never seen that before.
00:08:47.720 Right?
00:08:48.860 I'm not wrong, am I?
00:08:50.140 It just all turned positive all at once.
00:08:52.260 And not only did it turn positive, but people are getting that it's the replacement for solar power.
00:08:57.940 Or an alternative or an addition.
00:09:00.980 I wouldn't say replacement.
00:09:01.940 This is gigantic.
00:09:05.820 And I have to ask, how much did Mark Schneider's influence on this topic matter?
00:09:13.420 Because he influenced a lot.
00:09:15.920 How much did Michael Schellenberger's influence on this topic matter?
00:09:20.300 Yeah, because I think Schellenberger and Mark Schneider were the two voices that I heard the most.
00:09:26.220 And I tried to boost their signal as much as possible.
00:09:29.380 In my case, I'm just a booster.
00:09:31.940 But I feel like there was this giant battleship that was going in one direction.
00:09:38.080 And there were just a few little tugboats, like, trying to move it a little bit.
00:09:44.020 And I think it changed directions.
00:09:47.020 Yeah, Bill Gates invested in a nuclear power company.
00:09:50.240 That's true.
00:09:53.680 How much did the China Syndrome poison perception?
00:09:56.860 Probably a lot.
00:09:57.940 Because movies make a big difference.
00:10:00.160 Probably a lot.
00:10:00.820 All right, so that's good news.
00:10:03.160 Nuclear is moving in all the right direction.
00:10:05.080 So that's your golden age coming.
00:10:07.660 As Joe Concha noted in a tweet today,
00:10:11.840 Ron DeSantis is holding a press conference today,
00:10:15.460 which is not the interesting part.
00:10:16.920 The interesting part is he chose to do it in a town in Florida called Brandon.
00:10:21.960 And he's going to be at a Honda dealership called Brandon Honda.
00:10:29.700 Good job, Ron DeSantis.
00:10:31.740 I doubt it's a coincidence.
00:10:33.700 Probably not a coincidence.
00:10:35.760 So good job, trolling-wise.
00:10:37.740 Rasmussen Polls has a poll result today that says 55% of people who are asked to voters, I guess,
00:10:48.160 say Bannon prosecution is politically motivated.
00:10:51.420 55% of the country thinks that they just watched a man be arrested without a crime and that the government is doing it to punish him for political reasons.
00:11:08.860 Now, I don't know if there's a crime or not.
00:11:11.780 I'm no expert on that.
00:11:13.500 But it does look like it's a political prosecution.
00:11:17.220 I mean, I guess technically it's a crime because he's not showing up to testify.
00:11:23.040 Also, Rasmussen asked about the O'Keefe raid, you know, the Project Veritas stuff.
00:11:31.900 And 52% of the public say that's politically motivated.
00:11:36.540 Bannon and O'Keefe, two people associated with the political right, and over half of the country.
00:11:43.240 So that's more than just Republicans, right?
00:11:46.140 This is over half of the country in both cases, say this looks politically motivated.
00:11:53.040 There's something happening.
00:11:55.540 Do you feel it?
00:11:58.160 This is part of the story.
00:11:59.700 I'm going to piece together the whole tapestry as we go.
00:12:03.620 But this is important.
00:12:05.320 That it's not just the right who notices now that the government has overreached.
00:12:11.040 Because at 55%, you're way past the number of Republicans.
00:12:16.480 You're into the Bill Maher territory, where even the reasonable people on the left are saying,
00:12:22.060 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute.
00:12:24.040 That's a little too far.
00:12:26.540 Let's keep going.
00:12:28.960 You heard that Jacob Chansley, he was the so-called QAnon shaman,
00:12:34.160 the guy who was part of the January 6th protest.
00:12:37.620 I call it a protest.
00:12:39.360 He got 41 months in federal prison.
00:12:41.520 One of the longest sentences handed down so far in connection with the event.
00:12:48.440 So he got one of the longest sentences, did nothing violent.
00:12:53.700 Didn't threaten anything violent.
00:12:56.520 Didn't do anything violent.
00:12:59.220 They said that his little flag thing was a weapon, because it had a flagpole.
00:13:03.220 Well, this is a political prosecution.
00:13:10.620 So now we've got Bannon, O'Keefe, and Jacob Chansley.
00:13:14.200 Now, I'm not saying he didn't break a law.
00:13:16.180 I'm saying that the penalty is clearly to make an example of him.
00:13:19.720 And let me say this as clearly as I can.
00:13:21.680 I can't stand for the National Anthem anymore.
00:13:29.380 Just a personal thing.
00:13:30.780 You can do whatever you want.
00:13:32.200 I'm not trying to convince you.
00:13:34.160 And I'm not siding with Black Lives Matter,
00:13:37.340 and I'm definitely not going to kneel for the National Anthem,
00:13:39.860 because I don't kneel for anything.
00:13:42.840 I just don't kneel for things.
00:13:44.600 It doesn't matter what it is.
00:13:46.180 So I'm not going to be kneeling for anything.
00:13:47.920 But I don't think I can stand for a government
00:13:51.540 and I realize the National Anthem is not the government, per se.
00:13:55.080 But you get the point.
00:13:56.660 You know, our national symbols, they have two purposes.
00:14:02.960 One is to unite the country,
00:14:04.460 but the other is it gives us a protest focus.
00:14:08.400 So they're kind of handy in two directions that way.
00:14:11.940 And personally, I don't want to show respect
00:14:15.400 for a country that would use somebody as an example.
00:14:19.520 If you say right out loud,
00:14:22.680 we're going to make an example of somebody,
00:14:24.820 I'm done with you.
00:14:27.600 That's not a government I support.
00:14:30.620 Nope.
00:14:31.460 You can put somebody in jail because they committed a crime.
00:14:34.960 Cool.
00:14:36.300 But if you put somebody in jail extra long
00:14:38.780 to make an example of him,
00:14:41.040 not cool.
00:14:42.760 Not cool.
00:14:43.420 No respect for that.
00:14:44.980 So going forward,
00:14:46.980 I won't be standing for the National Anthem.
00:14:49.220 And again,
00:14:50.160 I don't care what you think about it,
00:14:52.600 and I'm not trying to convince you.
00:14:54.120 I'm just saying that my personal standard
00:14:55.960 for respecting my government
00:14:58.200 has been surpassed.
00:14:59.860 I can't respect this government anymore.
00:15:02.580 Now, I got lots of complaints about lots of things,
00:15:04.680 as we all do.
00:15:05.940 The government gives you lots of stuff to complain about.
00:15:08.440 But this is different.
00:15:09.360 Yeah, I...
00:15:13.860 Dude, I understand the government is not the country.
00:15:18.060 Fucking listen for a second, huh?
00:15:20.240 Like, some people are already flipping out.
00:15:22.780 Can you fucking understand
00:15:24.020 that I said that directly before you did?
00:15:27.000 All right?
00:15:27.540 So to disagree with me,
00:15:29.340 say something that's fucking different
00:15:31.040 than what I just said.
00:15:32.900 All right?
00:15:33.280 This guy's going to turn it off.
00:15:34.660 Oh, I'm done with you,
00:15:35.640 because you don't understand
00:15:36.860 the government is different than the country.
00:15:38.180 Just fucking said that.
00:15:40.060 I just fucking said that.
00:15:42.720 Jesus Christ.
00:15:46.000 All right.
00:15:47.100 Go off and be against weed legalization.
00:15:52.680 I think you're on that team.
00:15:54.540 All right.
00:15:56.580 Do I seem to have an attitude today?
00:16:00.120 I don't know.
00:16:00.880 I think it's going to get worse.
00:16:03.500 Stay with me.
00:16:05.880 All right.
00:16:06.480 All right.
00:16:08.180 As long as the government
00:16:10.020 is making examples of conservatives,
00:16:12.320 I'm done with the government.
00:16:13.880 Speaking of the government,
00:16:16.380 there's a national Quinnipiac poll
00:16:19.600 that gives the GOP a plus eight
00:16:23.000 on a generic ballot.
00:16:24.500 What that means is
00:16:25.360 if a generic Republican
00:16:27.100 ran against a generic Democrat,
00:16:30.000 which, of course,
00:16:30.780 doesn't happen in the real world,
00:16:32.200 the Republican would win solidly.
00:16:36.620 Now, of course,
00:16:39.500 gerrymandering and all that
00:16:40.840 doesn't make that a real thing,
00:16:42.680 but it does show you
00:16:43.560 where the public is at.
00:16:45.260 And according to Quinnipiac,
00:16:46.260 Biden's approval is only a 36 percent.
00:16:49.520 And his approval on the economy
00:16:50.860 is 34 percent.
00:16:52.740 And do I need to remind you,
00:16:54.100 it's the economy, stupid.
00:16:55.300 If you're 34 percent on the economy,
00:16:58.800 you can't get reelected.
00:17:00.660 And nobody could.
00:17:02.300 All right.
00:17:02.900 But it doesn't matter.
00:17:03.560 He's not going to run anyway.
00:17:05.920 However, I should remind you,
00:17:07.380 I told you that Rasmussen was plus 13
00:17:09.720 on a similar question, right?
00:17:13.120 That's a pretty big difference.
00:17:14.780 Plus 13 versus plus eight.
00:17:17.080 But they're so,
00:17:18.260 they're both so solidly
00:17:19.720 in the same direction.
00:17:20.580 That means something.
00:17:23.340 I should mention
00:17:24.040 that the Rasmussen poll,
00:17:25.480 which has the higher number,
00:17:26.800 13 point difference,
00:17:29.580 they have classically done
00:17:31.720 a better job
00:17:32.880 of taking a representative sample of voters.
00:17:36.220 Other polls tend to be Democrat heavy
00:17:38.380 for whatever reason.
00:17:40.360 And so I would lean towards
00:17:42.580 Rasmussen's number of 13
00:17:44.340 as more credible than the eight.
00:17:46.260 But they're both in the same direction.
00:17:48.360 So they both say the same thing.
00:17:50.580 So the government will fall,
00:17:52.340 it appears.
00:17:53.780 And it has to.
00:17:55.920 It has to.
00:17:57.380 The government has to fall.
00:17:59.520 It has disappointed us greatly.
00:18:03.800 You want to hear some more disappointment?
00:18:06.220 I saw this in a tweet by Aaron,
00:18:08.980 and I can't say his last name.
00:18:10.540 Who has a last name
00:18:13.120 that I can't say in public?
00:18:16.800 And do you know why?
00:18:17.860 It's a last name
00:18:20.180 that I can't say in public.
00:18:25.380 I can't say it
00:18:28.960 because the last name
00:18:29.920 is spelled S-I-R-I.
00:18:33.280 And if I say his last name,
00:18:34.960 it will activate all your iPhones.
00:18:37.960 So I can't say it.
00:18:39.920 But somebody named Aaron,
00:18:42.960 with the last name
00:18:43.920 that's an iPhone digital assistant,
00:18:45.560 he tweets this,
00:18:48.840 that the FDA,
00:18:50.140 now this is the FDA
00:18:51.160 is asking this.
00:18:52.860 This is it.
00:18:53.440 This is a key part of the story.
00:18:55.420 The FDA is asking this.
00:18:58.760 Is asking a federal judge
00:19:00.180 to grant it until the year 2076.
00:19:03.620 That's a long time from now.
00:19:04.980 To fully release
00:19:06.440 Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccination data?
00:19:09.840 What?
00:19:14.820 Wait, what?
00:19:15.900 I have to read that again.
00:19:17.360 The FDA asked federal judge
00:19:18.840 to grant it until the year 2076
00:19:21.120 to fully release
00:19:23.140 Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine data.
00:19:26.160 You fucking motherfuckers.
00:19:28.760 You fucking motherfuckers.
00:19:31.500 The FDA is corrupt, obviously.
00:19:34.940 If you had any doubt,
00:19:38.080 you don't have any doubt now, do you?
00:19:42.160 I have said from the first,
00:19:44.020 and again, this was a personal opinion,
00:19:46.900 that the benefit of a doubt
00:19:48.760 or maybe the presumption
00:19:50.100 would be in favor
00:19:51.620 of the vaccines being safe.
00:19:54.760 The presumption,
00:19:56.060 without definite knowledge,
00:19:59.020 but my personal presumption
00:20:00.780 was that the vaccines
00:20:03.120 were probably safe enough.
00:20:05.640 This changes my assumption.
00:20:09.560 Presumption.
00:20:10.840 It changes my presumption.
00:20:13.100 I think this information,
00:20:15.040 you would have to presume
00:20:16.200 it's unsafe
00:20:16.860 or less safe than they're telling you.
00:20:18.940 Let me be clear.
00:20:20.200 I'm not going to say unsafe.
00:20:22.340 That would be too strong
00:20:23.760 because the evidence
00:20:24.400 doesn't suggest that.
00:20:26.180 But it does suggest
00:20:27.380 that it's less safe than reported.
00:20:30.160 Are you with me?
00:20:31.080 Why would they hide information
00:20:33.380 if it's good?
00:20:35.020 Can you think of any reason?
00:20:37.920 Well, there are two reasons
00:20:39.160 to hide information.
00:20:41.580 Well, one reason
00:20:42.780 to hide information
00:20:43.500 if it's good.
00:20:45.120 There are two reasons
00:20:45.820 to hide information.
00:20:46.640 One is it's bad,
00:20:47.960 so you don't want people to know.
00:20:49.780 But the other is
00:20:50.800 that it's not bad,
00:20:52.540 but people might mistakenly
00:20:54.040 think it is.
00:20:55.140 Now, that's the case
00:20:55.920 with Trump's tax returns.
00:20:57.980 We don't know
00:20:59.440 if Trump's tax returns
00:21:00.600 show something bad,
00:21:02.120 and I really doubt it
00:21:03.500 because, you know,
00:21:04.940 he gets audited,
00:21:05.920 he's got professionals
00:21:06.720 doing stuff.
00:21:07.840 But there's a 100% chance
00:21:09.880 people would think
00:21:10.660 it was bad
00:21:11.240 because it's complicated
00:21:12.660 and they don't understand taxes.
00:21:14.640 There would be something there.
00:21:16.600 So the good reason
00:21:17.500 not to release good news
00:21:19.480 is that the good news
00:21:21.320 can be embarrassing
00:21:22.080 because people
00:21:22.800 will misinterpret it.
00:21:23.820 But that wouldn't be a problem
00:21:26.900 until 2076.
00:21:29.500 You could just wait five years.
00:21:32.820 You know,
00:21:33.020 if the problem was
00:21:34.680 you want people
00:21:35.200 to misinterpret the data,
00:21:37.360 just wait two years, right?
00:21:39.480 Because then the pandemic
00:21:40.960 is mostly over five years
00:21:42.240 to be safe.
00:21:43.600 But if you make, you know,
00:21:44.620 50 plus years
00:21:45.760 to release this shit,
00:21:47.860 you have to assume
00:21:49.000 they're hiding bad news.
00:21:51.080 What else could you assume?
00:21:53.820 You fucking assholes.
00:21:58.000 Now,
00:21:58.980 I'm going to give them
00:22:01.100 a little bit of safety.
00:22:03.200 It is entirely possible
00:22:04.680 that the government
00:22:05.520 lied to you
00:22:06.400 in what they thought
00:22:07.260 was your best interest.
00:22:09.380 Here would be an example
00:22:10.620 of what that would look like.
00:22:12.300 It could be that
00:22:13.020 the vaccines are more dangerous
00:22:14.760 than has been represented,
00:22:16.780 but you're still better off
00:22:18.180 country-wise getting them.
00:22:20.860 Not individually.
00:22:21.920 Individually,
00:22:23.780 you know,
00:22:24.320 all bets are off.
00:22:25.640 But it might be better
00:22:26.680 for the country
00:22:27.300 even if everybody knew
00:22:29.460 these were more dangerous
00:22:30.540 than reported.
00:22:32.480 It's possible.
00:22:34.180 But,
00:22:35.120 does your country,
00:22:36.760 your government,
00:22:38.180 have the right
00:22:39.080 to lie to you
00:22:41.220 for your own benefit?
00:22:42.500 They could do it.
00:22:43.260 Obviously,
00:22:43.700 they can do it
00:22:44.120 and get away with it.
00:22:44.800 But do they have
00:22:45.760 the right
00:22:46.280 to do that?
00:22:49.300 No.
00:22:51.000 No,
00:22:51.620 they don't.
00:22:52.820 They don't have that right.
00:22:54.880 And for this,
00:22:56.460 the government
00:22:56.920 should fall.
00:22:59.240 The FDA
00:23:00.100 needs to answer
00:23:01.060 to this.
00:23:02.080 And if they can't
00:23:02.880 answer for it,
00:23:03.600 the government
00:23:04.100 needs to fall.
00:23:05.700 This is a government
00:23:06.700 ending thing
00:23:08.400 right here.
00:23:09.300 If you lie
00:23:10.120 to the public
00:23:10.700 this badly,
00:23:11.900 even for good intention,
00:23:13.040 and I don't know
00:23:14.520 if there was
00:23:14.780 any bad intention
00:23:15.660 by anybody.
00:23:16.520 But if you lie
00:23:17.140 this badly,
00:23:17.840 the government
00:23:18.380 has to be replaced.
00:23:21.660 And by the way,
00:23:23.060 I have no belief
00:23:24.640 that things
00:23:25.560 would have been
00:23:25.960 different under Trump
00:23:27.400 because it's the FDA,
00:23:28.780 right?
00:23:29.360 It's not really
00:23:29.900 the president
00:23:30.540 who's doing anything
00:23:31.240 on this,
00:23:31.620 I don't think.
00:23:32.160 Not yet.
00:23:33.240 So this probably
00:23:34.200 would have been the same.
00:23:35.160 The FDA probably
00:23:35.960 would have acted
00:23:36.420 the same under Trump.
00:23:37.460 This isn't even political.
00:23:40.880 Next topic.
00:23:41.660 The U.S. has reached
00:23:43.000 100,000 deaths
00:23:43.940 from overdoses.
00:23:45.700 75% of them
00:23:46.980 are some big numbers
00:23:47.700 from fentanyl.
00:23:49.520 Now that's the way
00:23:50.420 the news is reported,
00:23:51.900 but of course
00:23:52.320 the news is reported
00:23:53.220 incorrectly.
00:23:54.760 Here's the way
00:23:55.460 to correctly report
00:23:56.580 this story.
00:23:58.200 The real story
00:23:59.120 is China worked
00:23:59.880 with Mexican cartels
00:24:01.220 to murder
00:24:02.260 over 60,000 Americans
00:24:03.960 just this year,
00:24:05.140 and our government
00:24:06.180 did almost nothing
00:24:07.160 about it.
00:24:08.580 Again.
00:24:09.880 Now when I say
00:24:10.460 again,
00:24:10.880 I mean Trump
00:24:12.340 did almost nothing
00:24:13.460 about it.
00:24:14.320 I mean he was
00:24:14.720 catching stuff
00:24:15.420 at the border
00:24:15.880 a little more
00:24:16.440 aggressively,
00:24:17.120 maybe,
00:24:17.560 I don't know.
00:24:18.940 And he talked
00:24:19.440 to China
00:24:19.900 and China did
00:24:20.600 nothing.
00:24:21.280 So that's as close
00:24:22.100 to nothing
00:24:22.600 as you could get.
00:24:24.240 I give Trump
00:24:25.640 a failing grade
00:24:27.260 on fentanyl,
00:24:28.420 and I give Biden
00:24:29.280 a failing grade
00:24:30.020 as well.
00:24:31.000 But I give the news
00:24:32.280 an extra failing grade
00:24:33.560 because they're not
00:24:34.120 even reporting
00:24:34.680 the fucking story right.
00:24:36.460 The story is
00:24:37.200 China is murdering
00:24:38.220 60,000 fucking
00:24:39.400 Americans a year
00:24:40.440 through the cartels.
00:24:43.660 They send the drugs
00:24:44.400 to the cartels
00:24:45.060 to get into this country,
00:24:46.020 and our government
00:24:47.200 isn't doing a fucking
00:24:48.400 thing about it.
00:24:49.960 That's the story.
00:24:51.320 The story is
00:24:52.240 we're being murdered
00:24:53.060 by tens of thousands,
00:24:54.460 and our government
00:24:55.300 isn't doing a fucking
00:24:56.380 thing about it.
00:24:57.720 The government
00:24:58.340 has to fall.
00:25:00.520 The government
00:25:04.280 has to fall
00:25:06.180 on just this topic.
00:25:09.200 And by the way,
00:25:09.660 I would say the same
00:25:10.300 thing about Trump,
00:25:10.980 I think.
00:25:12.200 If we had gone
00:25:13.140 this long
00:25:13.900 and Trump hadn't
00:25:15.220 done a fucking
00:25:15.900 thing about fentanyl,
00:25:17.440 I'd want him
00:25:18.060 replaced too.
00:25:20.540 Just to be clear,
00:25:22.260 no politics
00:25:23.040 involved here.
00:25:24.380 No politics.
00:25:25.600 I don't care
00:25:26.200 who it is.
00:25:26.700 If you can't
00:25:28.860 get this done,
00:25:30.140 or at least
00:25:30.620 try hard,
00:25:32.760 fuck you.
00:25:36.640 What do we do
00:25:37.520 about drug overdoses?
00:25:38.680 Well, it turns out
00:25:39.420 that there's
00:25:39.840 a very clear
00:25:41.720 way to solve it,
00:25:42.780 because the Netherlands
00:25:43.680 has solved it,
00:25:44.820 and other countries
00:25:45.640 have too.
00:25:47.120 So this big old
00:25:48.040 drug problem
00:25:48.700 that we're wrestling
00:25:49.520 with,
00:25:50.200 it does have
00:25:51.100 a known solution.
00:25:52.360 basically you
00:25:55.040 arrest the people
00:25:56.120 who are doing
00:25:57.020 drugs in the streets,
00:25:58.220 or addicts,
00:25:59.060 basically.
00:25:59.460 You force them
00:26:00.040 into rehab.
00:26:01.080 You give them
00:26:01.760 a choice of jail
00:26:02.720 or rehab,
00:26:03.940 which basically
00:26:05.020 forces them
00:26:05.680 into rehab,
00:26:06.580 and it works.
00:26:08.220 So you keep
00:26:09.120 arresting the dealers,
00:26:10.880 but the people
00:26:12.240 get rehab,
00:26:13.140 it's just forced.
00:26:14.760 Now, apparently
00:26:15.460 forced rehab
00:26:16.380 works just as well
00:26:17.420 as voluntary.
00:26:18.240 Did you know that?
00:26:20.180 Right?
00:26:20.480 Rehab
00:26:20.860 isn't really
00:26:22.200 a perfect process.
00:26:23.800 It's not very
00:26:24.340 good at all,
00:26:25.200 actually,
00:26:25.780 but it's the best
00:26:26.280 we have.
00:26:28.880 And it doesn't
00:26:29.620 matter if you're
00:26:30.080 forced into it
00:26:30.820 or you do it
00:26:31.200 voluntarily,
00:26:31.900 apparently you get
00:26:32.400 about the same
00:26:33.080 level of success.
00:26:36.680 All right.
00:26:37.520 So given that,
00:26:38.900 as Michael
00:26:39.600 Schellenberger
00:26:40.120 is doing,
00:26:41.680 at this point
00:26:42.700 he's just
00:26:43.160 a national treasure,
00:26:44.680 because the two
00:26:45.580 of our biggest
00:26:46.540 problems in the world,
00:26:47.620 climate change,
00:26:48.920 he's behind
00:26:49.740 the push
00:26:51.160 for nuclear
00:26:52.260 energy.
00:26:53.360 And now
00:26:53.680 the drug
00:26:54.680 overdose problem
00:26:55.460 and the homelessness
00:26:56.040 and all that,
00:26:56.840 he's taken that on,
00:26:58.080 and it turns out
00:26:59.060 that these are
00:26:59.720 problems with
00:27:00.500 solutions.
00:27:02.940 I mean,
00:27:03.240 think about this.
00:27:04.400 We have lots
00:27:05.140 of problems
00:27:05.540 where you can't
00:27:06.100 really know
00:27:06.960 what the solution
00:27:07.600 is,
00:27:08.220 like inflation.
00:27:09.860 I don't know
00:27:10.620 exactly what to
00:27:11.400 do about that.
00:27:12.180 I mean,
00:27:12.380 we could stop
00:27:13.060 wildly spending,
00:27:14.380 but once it's here
00:27:16.400 and we've already
00:27:17.420 done the wild
00:27:18.020 spending,
00:27:18.620 what do you do
00:27:19.140 about it?
00:27:19.880 So there's lots
00:27:20.600 of problems
00:27:21.060 that we don't
00:27:21.500 know what to
00:27:22.000 do about them,
00:27:22.540 but this isn't
00:27:23.080 one of them.
00:27:24.820 Climate change
00:27:25.460 is not a problem
00:27:26.140 we don't know
00:27:26.820 what to do
00:27:27.240 about it.
00:27:27.760 We do.
00:27:28.720 Nuclear energy.
00:27:30.420 This overdose
00:27:31.400 problem is not
00:27:32.180 a problem that
00:27:32.640 we don't know
00:27:33.200 what to do
00:27:33.700 about it.
00:27:34.800 We do.
00:27:35.960 We know
00:27:36.260 exactly what
00:27:36.880 to do about it,
00:27:37.500 because other
00:27:37.940 countries have
00:27:38.540 handled it
00:27:39.080 with great success.
00:27:41.180 We just do
00:27:41.620 what they do.
00:27:42.460 And there's no
00:27:43.060 reason to think
00:27:43.620 that our culture
00:27:44.460 or our situation
00:27:46.900 or society
00:27:47.720 would have a
00:27:48.240 different outcome
00:27:48.880 at all,
00:27:50.520 once you know
00:27:51.200 what the solutions
00:27:51.740 are.
00:27:52.160 I mean,
00:27:52.340 they're just
00:27:52.800 basic stuff.
00:27:56.100 Well,
00:27:57.620 so here's my
00:27:59.700 take on China.
00:28:00.540 So they've got
00:28:00.940 a one-two punch
00:28:01.820 going on here.
00:28:02.540 So they send
00:28:03.080 fentanyl to kill
00:28:03.940 liberals,
00:28:04.940 mostly.
00:28:06.400 All right.
00:28:06.680 Now that's a
00:28:07.160 gross generalization.
00:28:08.180 There are plenty
00:28:08.660 of conservatives
00:28:09.980 who've died
00:28:10.740 from fentanyl,
00:28:12.180 but it's probably
00:28:13.840 concentrated a little
00:28:15.280 bit more on the
00:28:16.000 left.
00:28:16.300 Now who normally
00:28:17.740 protects the people
00:28:18.580 on the left
00:28:19.180 in this country?
00:28:21.120 The people on the
00:28:21.980 right, right?
00:28:23.780 It's usually the
00:28:24.400 conservatives who
00:28:25.980 are backing, you
00:28:27.020 know, strong
00:28:27.380 police forces,
00:28:28.380 strong defense,
00:28:29.700 you know,
00:28:30.120 protection,
00:28:30.740 basically.
00:28:31.520 But the
00:28:32.300 conservatives are
00:28:33.040 not protecting the
00:28:34.380 people on the
00:28:34.900 left who are
00:28:35.360 dying by tens of
00:28:36.360 thousands.
00:28:37.280 Why not?
00:28:38.740 Why not?
00:28:40.240 Why is this the
00:28:41.420 exception?
00:28:42.680 I mean,
00:28:42.900 generally we have
00:28:43.560 a country where
00:28:44.180 the conservatives
00:28:44.740 are protecting
00:28:45.540 liberals from
00:28:46.460 killing themselves
00:28:47.320 one way or
00:28:47.860 another.
00:28:49.060 But why not
00:28:49.620 this time?
00:28:51.080 It's because our
00:28:52.100 press is preventing
00:28:54.480 it.
00:28:55.200 Because the press
00:28:55.880 decides what we
00:28:56.700 think, right?
00:28:57.460 The public's opinion
00:28:58.860 and what we do is
00:29:00.300 based on the media.
00:29:01.840 So to me it looks
00:29:02.560 like China has
00:29:03.780 neutered the
00:29:04.920 conservatives because
00:29:05.780 they somehow can
00:29:06.680 control the media.
00:29:08.400 And once the
00:29:10.160 conservatives are
00:29:10.940 off the field,
00:29:11.900 they can just
00:29:12.340 murder the liberals
00:29:13.260 because there's
00:29:14.160 nobody there to
00:29:14.760 protect them.
00:29:16.720 That's what it
00:29:17.340 looks like to me.
00:29:18.860 They just neuter
00:29:20.440 the conservatives
00:29:21.060 with the media
00:29:21.760 and murder the
00:29:23.240 liberals with
00:29:24.000 fentanyl.
00:29:28.180 Apparently,
00:29:29.000 and this is an
00:29:29.960 unconfirmed report,
00:29:31.220 so put this in the
00:29:32.040 category of things
00:29:33.420 I saw claimed on
00:29:34.760 Twitter.
00:29:36.400 I would need a
00:29:37.020 confirmation on this
00:29:37.880 one.
00:29:38.060 But apparently,
00:29:39.580 according to the
00:29:40.460 story,
00:29:40.680 China is paying
00:29:43.040 influencers in
00:29:44.020 this country to
00:29:44.960 run a video that
00:29:45.860 says COVID came
00:29:46.680 from the U.S.
00:29:48.280 from a white-tailed
00:29:49.400 deer.
00:29:53.160 That's what China
00:29:54.120 is doing right
00:29:54.700 now.
00:29:55.800 They're pushing
00:29:56.860 propaganda in
00:29:57.920 this country,
00:29:59.180 in this country,
00:30:00.620 paying influencers.
00:30:02.360 Now this
00:30:02.660 influencer said no,
00:30:04.000 turned him down.
00:30:07.100 But they're pushing
00:30:08.140 the idea that came
00:30:08.900 from the white-tailed
00:30:09.780 deer.
00:30:10.680 Okay.
00:30:14.220 Here's a little bit
00:30:14.980 more on China.
00:30:15.820 Did you know that
00:30:16.660 China, I think it's
00:30:17.620 the top female player
00:30:18.700 from China,
00:30:21.160 she was a
00:30:22.420 whistleblower and
00:30:23.140 said some powerful
00:30:24.660 Chinese communist
00:30:26.560 guy sexually
00:30:28.360 molested her.
00:30:29.980 I don't know the
00:30:30.460 details of that.
00:30:31.760 But then she
00:30:32.400 disappeared.
00:30:34.240 That's right.
00:30:35.860 Peng Shuai,
00:30:37.260 I hope I'm
00:30:37.840 pronouncing that
00:30:38.340 right,
00:30:38.520 she disappeared
00:30:40.180 and nobody
00:30:40.900 knows where
00:30:41.400 she is,
00:30:41.980 but they've
00:30:42.520 seen one
00:30:43.740 screenshot.
00:30:49.500 Oh, yes,
00:30:50.320 I should note
00:30:52.560 that there are
00:30:53.000 lots of
00:30:53.420 conservatives in,
00:30:54.440 let's say,
00:30:54.780 rural Kentucky
00:30:55.580 who have
00:30:56.800 drug problems.
00:30:58.340 drugs, but
00:30:59.060 the fentanyl
00:31:00.000 part of their
00:31:00.500 drug problem
00:31:01.060 is accidental,
00:31:01.800 as it is for
00:31:03.380 most people,
00:31:03.960 actually.
00:31:04.820 There are people
00:31:05.540 who do it
00:31:05.940 intentionally.
00:31:08.360 But the
00:31:09.020 overdoses are
00:31:09.780 usually the
00:31:10.360 unintentional guys.
00:31:11.320 So this Chinese
00:31:14.240 tennis player
00:31:15.580 was sexually
00:31:16.760 abused or
00:31:17.660 raped, I
00:31:18.140 think, that
00:31:19.360 is her claim,
00:31:20.200 and then the
00:31:21.080 Chinese government
00:31:21.860 disappeared her.
00:31:23.840 Now, Rose
00:31:24.300 McGowan tweeted
00:31:25.500 on this, and
00:31:27.180 you know,
00:31:29.780 Rose McGowan
00:31:30.420 got the Me Too
00:31:31.560 movement going
00:31:32.880 in this country.
00:31:34.600 And this is a
00:31:36.860 bigger story than
00:31:38.120 maybe you think.
00:31:38.940 Because, first
00:31:40.820 of all, it
00:31:41.400 seems very
00:31:41.960 clear what
00:31:42.520 happened, that
00:31:43.720 the Chinese
00:31:44.220 government probably
00:31:45.300 raped a tennis
00:31:46.620 star, she
00:31:47.860 talked about it,
00:31:48.760 and then they're
00:31:49.540 imprisoning her for
00:31:51.980 just talking about
00:31:52.680 it.
00:31:54.520 That probably is
00:31:56.920 what's happening.
00:31:57.940 And we're not
00:31:58.740 going to get any
00:31:59.240 confirmation or
00:32:00.140 denial that is
00:32:01.240 credible, so we're
00:32:02.040 never going to
00:32:02.440 know what's
00:32:02.780 happening, and I
00:32:03.800 don't think we'll
00:32:04.300 ever see her
00:32:04.780 again.
00:32:06.040 I think she's
00:32:06.960 done.
00:32:07.200 Now, up
00:32:10.260 until now, I
00:32:11.140 have an opinion
00:32:11.920 that China has
00:32:13.180 mostly pissed off
00:32:14.420 the men in the
00:32:15.460 United States.
00:32:16.680 I can't prove
00:32:17.300 that.
00:32:18.340 But when I hear
00:32:19.040 people talking
00:32:19.700 about China, it's
00:32:20.560 almost always men.
00:32:22.220 Am I wrong
00:32:22.720 about that?
00:32:24.540 Give me a fact
00:32:25.400 check.
00:32:25.700 Am I just being
00:32:26.300 a biased, sexist
00:32:27.780 asshole?
00:32:29.060 Or would you
00:32:30.120 agree that when
00:32:30.840 anybody's complaining
00:32:31.760 about China attacking
00:32:32.900 the United States,
00:32:34.420 95% of the time
00:32:35.800 it's a man?
00:32:36.360 Am I right?
00:32:39.400 Now, I'm not
00:32:40.060 saying that there
00:32:40.540 aren't plenty of
00:32:41.060 women who see the
00:32:42.700 same things.
00:32:43.200 Of course there
00:32:43.700 are.
00:32:44.620 But isn't it like
00:32:45.780 95% male?
00:32:50.580 I'm just looking
00:32:51.340 at your comments to
00:32:52.100 see if I'm way off
00:32:52.920 base here.
00:32:54.500 It's disproportionate
00:32:55.640 at the very last
00:32:56.300 right?
00:32:58.240 Disproportionate,
00:32:58.720 wouldn't you say?
00:33:00.420 All right.
00:33:00.980 So here's what
00:33:02.200 may have happened
00:33:03.760 with this
00:33:04.460 Peng Shui
00:33:05.860 tennis star
00:33:06.540 disappearing.
00:33:08.920 This might
00:33:09.760 activate
00:33:10.460 American women
00:33:12.040 in a way that
00:33:13.940 they have not
00:33:14.380 been activated
00:33:15.100 against China.
00:33:17.520 It's basically
00:33:18.460 a rape regime.
00:33:21.200 What do you think
00:33:22.020 is happening to
00:33:22.580 the Uyghurs
00:33:23.080 right now?
00:33:24.260 Do you think
00:33:24.660 the Uyghurs
00:33:25.160 are getting raped
00:33:25.800 by the guards?
00:33:26.600 I would guess
00:33:29.400 yes.
00:33:30.360 I would guess
00:33:30.900 yes.
00:33:31.620 I would guess
00:33:32.360 that state
00:33:33.560 sanctioned rape
00:33:34.580 is probably a
00:33:35.940 thing.
00:33:37.000 It probably is
00:33:37.580 a thing.
00:33:38.160 I would bet
00:33:38.800 that the
00:33:39.580 Chinese Communist
00:33:40.540 Party does a
00:33:42.000 lot of raping.
00:33:44.020 Anybody want to
00:33:44.760 bet against that?
00:33:46.300 Does anyone
00:33:47.580 want to bet
00:33:48.260 that the high
00:33:50.120 members of the
00:33:50.780 Chinese Communist
00:33:51.500 Party are raping
00:33:52.500 like crazy?
00:33:53.660 You know they
00:33:54.200 are.
00:33:55.120 It's a rapist
00:33:55.840 regime.
00:33:57.320 And, right?
00:34:00.220 There's nobody
00:34:00.880 who's going to
00:34:01.340 doubt that, right?
00:34:02.840 There's no pushback
00:34:03.740 on that.
00:34:04.700 Is there?
00:34:07.020 You know they're
00:34:08.300 raping like crazy
00:34:08.980 just because they
00:34:09.580 can.
00:34:10.400 There's nothing
00:34:11.080 that would stop
00:34:11.640 them and
00:34:12.080 unfortunately
00:34:13.060 human nature,
00:34:14.100 blah, blah, blah.
00:34:20.760 So I wonder
00:34:22.140 if activating
00:34:23.620 the women
00:34:24.140 in this country,
00:34:25.040 if that happens,
00:34:25.800 maybe women
00:34:26.460 will ignore
00:34:27.020 this too.
00:34:27.640 I don't know.
00:34:28.300 But Rose
00:34:28.740 McGowan's on it
00:34:29.600 and that means
00:34:30.200 something.
00:34:31.460 We know she
00:34:32.120 can influence
00:34:32.680 the country.
00:34:34.060 Maybe she'll
00:34:34.520 do it again.
00:34:35.000 So it does look
00:34:42.380 like the Biden
00:34:45.020 regime has
00:34:47.440 turned on the
00:34:48.060 country.
00:34:48.400 and in a way
00:34:52.700 that's hard
00:34:53.100 to explain.
00:34:54.180 But they will
00:34:54.960 be removed
00:34:55.480 from power
00:34:55.940 pretty soon.
00:34:57.280 All right.
00:35:00.020 I saw a tweet
00:35:00.880 from Machiavelli's
00:35:02.960 underbelly.
00:35:04.180 So that's just
00:35:04.920 the name he uses
00:35:05.560 for his account.
00:35:06.980 And he said
00:35:07.480 this.
00:35:07.780 He said,
00:35:08.400 I've been watching
00:35:08.920 behavioral evolution
00:35:10.140 lectures for a few
00:35:11.140 months now and my
00:35:12.560 primary takeaways are,
00:35:13.780 number one,
00:35:14.800 nothing close to
00:35:15.800 free will could
00:35:16.640 possibly make any
00:35:17.660 sense.
00:35:18.780 Number two,
00:35:19.780 nothing we do is
00:35:20.660 rational but is
00:35:22.080 almost always fit.
00:35:23.720 I think he means
00:35:24.520 works to keep us
00:35:26.220 alive.
00:35:27.400 And we are more
00:35:28.320 complex than
00:35:28.940 however complex you
00:35:29.920 think you are.
00:35:30.940 All right.
00:35:31.220 I agree with all
00:35:31.940 these things.
00:35:32.640 But what's
00:35:32.920 interesting is that
00:35:33.760 the way he got
00:35:34.480 there is by
00:35:35.840 watching behavioral
00:35:36.940 evolution lectures
00:35:38.320 for months.
00:35:39.340 and what he
00:35:41.100 was done with
00:35:41.600 it, he thought
00:35:41.980 there can't be
00:35:42.440 anything like
00:35:42.900 free will.
00:35:43.740 It doesn't make
00:35:44.360 sense.
00:35:45.660 Now hypnotists get
00:35:47.260 there a different
00:35:47.720 way.
00:35:48.860 The way hypnotists
00:35:49.580 get there is
00:35:50.160 without all the
00:35:50.760 science.
00:35:52.200 We just do
00:35:53.140 stuff that makes
00:35:54.420 it clear to us
00:35:55.240 that people don't
00:35:56.040 have free will
00:35:56.680 because you can
00:35:58.160 change people's
00:35:58.900 preferences and
00:36:00.400 then they act
00:36:01.060 differently.
00:36:01.800 Like where was
00:36:02.360 the free will?
00:36:02.960 If I can change
00:36:03.640 it, if it gets
00:36:05.760 changed by exterior
00:36:06.760 things and there
00:36:08.340 doesn't seem to be
00:36:09.280 a processing
00:36:09.880 level, to
00:36:11.440 hypnotists this
00:36:12.140 was always
00:36:12.580 obvious.
00:36:13.920 But science
00:36:14.480 takes a while to
00:36:15.180 catch up.
00:36:18.860 All right, let's
00:36:19.440 talk about the
00:36:19.880 Rittenhouse trial.
00:36:20.760 Is there any
00:36:21.080 result yet in the
00:36:21.940 Rittenhouse trial?
00:36:22.600 I haven't seen
00:36:23.100 anything in the
00:36:23.540 comments, so I'm
00:36:24.140 guessing no.
00:36:24.920 Are the jurors
00:36:25.680 still out?
00:36:27.760 So they stayed
00:36:28.400 out?
00:36:29.380 Again, I would
00:36:30.200 like to say that
00:36:31.040 I support the
00:36:32.360 jurors who want
00:36:33.060 to hold out.
00:36:33.940 And I'm going to
00:36:34.400 go further than
00:36:35.080 this.
00:36:36.240 Because we know
00:36:37.000 at this point that
00:36:37.820 the judge and the
00:36:38.840 jury are the
00:36:39.260 are mostly
00:36:39.920 concerned about
00:36:41.480 public reaction.
00:36:43.640 Would you agree
00:36:44.180 with that assumption,
00:36:45.380 first of all?
00:36:46.480 That both the
00:36:47.120 judge and the
00:36:48.820 jury at this
00:36:49.680 point, given that
00:36:51.220 we know there's no
00:36:51.900 evidence of a crime,
00:36:53.340 would everybody agree
00:36:54.180 with that?
00:36:55.420 That both the jury
00:36:56.300 and the judge are
00:36:57.380 completely aware
00:36:58.460 there's no evidence
00:36:59.780 of a crime?
00:37:00.860 We all know that
00:37:01.820 now because we saw
00:37:02.860 the trial.
00:37:03.500 At this point,
00:37:06.300 do you know what
00:37:06.780 the best thing to
00:37:07.860 do would be?
00:37:10.100 For the judge to
00:37:12.740 declare, I don't
00:37:14.640 know what the
00:37:15.000 legal term would
00:37:15.840 be, but just to
00:37:17.460 cancel the trial.
00:37:20.660 Here's why.
00:37:22.100 If I were the
00:37:22.980 judge, I would
00:37:23.620 simply make this
00:37:24.380 statement.
00:37:25.520 We have this trial
00:37:27.680 and the jurors are
00:37:29.940 justifiably concerned
00:37:31.580 for their safety.
00:37:32.320 And that matters
00:37:34.240 because we're going
00:37:35.580 to protect the
00:37:36.280 system.
00:37:38.120 We're going to
00:37:38.720 protect the system,
00:37:40.100 the legal system.
00:37:41.480 And when you have
00:37:42.180 a situation where
00:37:43.060 the jurors are afraid
00:37:44.100 for their lives,
00:37:45.340 you can't have a
00:37:46.260 verdict.
00:37:47.300 You can't do it.
00:37:48.760 And further, since
00:37:50.880 there is no evidence
00:37:51.800 of any crime that
00:37:52.760 was presented in the
00:37:53.680 trial, I as a judge
00:37:55.380 am just going to
00:37:55.940 cancel it.
00:37:57.200 Not a mistrial.
00:37:58.560 Not a mistrial with
00:37:59.600 prejudice.
00:38:00.680 That's too weak.
00:38:02.940 Just call it a
00:38:04.040 nothing.
00:38:05.380 Don't call it a
00:38:06.200 hung jury.
00:38:07.660 Don't even call it a
00:38:08.860 mistrial.
00:38:10.260 Just say, we're
00:38:11.340 done.
00:38:13.100 Just say, we're
00:38:13.600 done.
00:38:14.380 I'll go home.
00:38:15.920 There's no evidence
00:38:16.820 of a crime.
00:38:18.060 Everybody go home.
00:38:21.940 Tell me that
00:38:22.720 wouldn't work.
00:38:24.480 Wouldn't it?
00:38:26.620 What would be more
00:38:27.920 powerful?
00:38:28.540 See, my problem is
00:38:29.740 that if there's a
00:38:31.200 mistrial, people
00:38:32.280 are going to read
00:38:32.860 it as a
00:38:33.460 technicality, and
00:38:35.160 they're going to
00:38:35.500 think he was
00:38:35.980 really guilty.
00:38:37.560 Am I wrong?
00:38:38.820 That a mistrial
00:38:39.660 would make some
00:38:40.700 percentage of the
00:38:41.400 country think that
00:38:43.780 he was actually
00:38:45.080 guilty but got
00:38:45.760 away with it.
00:38:47.280 But if the judge
00:38:48.420 said there was no
00:38:49.740 evidence of a
00:38:50.440 crime, and we're
00:38:53.540 worried for our
00:38:55.800 lives, which they
00:38:57.060 should be, we're
00:38:58.160 just going to go
00:38:58.660 home.
00:38:58.960 Because there was
00:39:01.000 no evidence of
00:39:01.580 a crime, there's
00:39:02.060 nothing to do
00:39:02.580 here.
00:39:04.340 What do you
00:39:04.860 think?
00:39:06.420 Because that
00:39:07.000 would just rock the
00:39:08.480 whole country,
00:39:09.160 wouldn't it?
00:39:10.380 Because there's no
00:39:11.300 name for that.
00:39:12.780 Like, it's not a
00:39:13.460 mistrial, it's not a
00:39:14.460 hung jury.
00:39:16.740 It's what?
00:39:18.640 It doesn't have a
00:39:19.480 name.
00:39:19.860 That's why it would
00:39:20.420 be brilliant.
00:39:22.200 Oh, is
00:39:22.540 disnissed?
00:39:24.380 Is that a thing?
00:39:25.920 I'm so ignorant of
00:39:27.120 the law that
00:39:27.900 summary dismissal,
00:39:31.000 would that cover
00:39:32.120 what I'm saying?
00:39:33.980 Summary dismissal?
00:39:38.220 Look that up.
00:39:41.960 Summary dismissal,
00:39:43.060 that might be
00:39:43.460 exactly the thing,
00:39:44.260 right?
00:39:48.180 Summary, I guess
00:39:49.260 that just means it's
00:39:50.100 so weak a case, it's
00:39:51.300 ridiculous, right?
00:39:52.300 Somebody's going
00:39:55.020 to paste the
00:39:55.900 summary dismissal.
00:40:06.600 Well, I see it in
00:40:07.540 the context of
00:40:08.780 a job.
00:40:12.980 All right, I only
00:40:13.780 see it in employment.
00:40:16.500 What is summary
00:40:17.340 dismissal by a
00:40:18.540 lawyer?
00:40:19.000 Okay.
00:40:19.120 Yeah, it would
00:40:22.180 be a response of
00:40:22.900 motion for summary
00:40:23.840 judgment.
00:40:26.380 Jury nullification?
00:40:28.060 Now, I wouldn't
00:40:28.640 call it jury
00:40:29.160 nullification.
00:40:30.700 A directed
00:40:31.360 verdict?
00:40:32.900 Yeah, maybe.
00:40:35.060 That would be
00:40:36.000 ballsy, wouldn't
00:40:36.700 it?
00:40:37.540 Imagine the
00:40:38.240 judge, I don't
00:40:39.440 know the legal
00:40:40.860 details or whether
00:40:41.560 that's even
00:40:42.100 possible, but
00:40:43.940 imagine him just
00:40:44.880 doing a directed
00:40:45.740 verdict and say,
00:40:46.580 you know, I
00:40:48.560 didn't see any
00:40:49.100 evidence of
00:40:49.740 the crime and
00:40:50.340 I don't want
00:40:50.740 the jurors to
00:40:52.000 do it for
00:40:53.620 this.
00:40:54.340 I'm a judge, I'll
00:40:55.180 take the hit for
00:40:55.840 it.
00:40:56.480 Dismissed.
00:40:58.580 Dismissed for
00:40:59.080 lack of evidence.
00:40:59.960 So that's the
00:41:00.480 thing, right?
00:41:01.560 Just dismissed
00:41:02.220 for lack of
00:41:02.800 evidence.
00:41:03.460 That would be
00:41:03.900 the best, I
00:41:05.060 feel like that
00:41:05.600 would be the
00:41:05.980 best outcome,
00:41:06.660 don't you?
00:41:12.560 Dismissed.
00:41:13.240 Okay.
00:41:13.860 Now, if it's
00:41:14.740 dismissed, it
00:41:15.540 could still be
00:41:16.000 tried again.
00:41:16.500 I think that's
00:41:17.220 the problem.
00:41:19.360 But since there
00:41:19.860 was no evidence,
00:41:20.660 I don't know
00:41:21.040 that it would
00:41:21.420 be.
00:41:22.900 Here's your
00:41:23.520 lesson on
00:41:24.280 cognitive dissonance
00:41:25.560 for the day.
00:41:26.820 Courtesy of
00:41:27.640 Senk Oyer.
00:41:30.180 How do you
00:41:30.620 say Senk from
00:41:31.880 the Young Turks?
00:41:33.640 How do you
00:41:33.980 pronounce his
00:41:34.420 last name?
00:41:35.160 Because I hate
00:41:36.100 to botch people's
00:41:37.100 names because it
00:41:37.780 sounds like I'm
00:41:38.700 being disrespectful.
00:41:42.180 Oh, it's
00:41:42.800 Cenk?
00:41:43.180 It's not
00:41:45.160 Senk?
00:41:46.120 Oh, it's
00:41:46.440 Cenk.
00:41:46.940 Okay.
00:41:47.380 Well, I got
00:41:47.660 his first name
00:41:48.100 wrong.
00:41:49.600 Cenk Uger or
00:41:52.300 Weeger?
00:41:53.240 Uger.
00:41:55.960 Cenk Uger.
00:41:57.120 Okay.
00:41:58.260 All right.
00:41:58.640 With all due
00:41:59.100 respect to
00:42:00.140 Cenk, I did
00:42:01.260 not mean to
00:42:01.740 get his name
00:42:02.140 wrong.
00:42:03.240 And I think
00:42:03.880 I've said his
00:42:04.500 name wrong a
00:42:05.000 bunch of times
00:42:05.420 in the past,
00:42:06.000 so I apologize.
00:42:07.520 Well, here's
00:42:07.900 your lesson in
00:42:08.380 cognitive dissonance.
00:42:09.180 So I think
00:42:10.660 the Young Turks
00:42:11.320 were maybe
00:42:11.900 anti-Rittenhouse
00:42:13.380 when it all
00:42:13.940 started, but
00:42:14.600 they watched
00:42:15.000 the trial, and
00:42:16.280 at least two
00:42:16.780 of them, Cenk
00:42:18.200 and Anna, have
00:42:20.160 decided that they
00:42:20.980 saw self-defense.
00:42:23.300 So my first
00:42:25.000 statement is,
00:42:26.180 good job, Cenk
00:42:28.680 and Anna, for
00:42:30.340 changing your
00:42:31.180 opinions based
00:42:31.980 on evidence.
00:42:34.020 I'm always
00:42:34.880 impressed when
00:42:35.540 people change
00:42:36.200 their opinion
00:42:36.780 based on data.
00:42:39.180 Based on
00:42:39.700 evidence.
00:42:40.400 Because you
00:42:40.700 think it's
00:42:41.080 never going
00:42:41.400 to happen,
00:42:41.820 right?
00:42:42.060 But then
00:42:42.340 what happens
00:42:42.740 is you're
00:42:42.900 like, huh,
00:42:44.260 huh, somebody
00:42:45.060 actually changed
00:42:45.700 their mind
00:42:46.080 based on data.
00:42:47.440 Well, that's
00:42:48.200 not exactly
00:42:49.200 what happened
00:42:49.700 with Cenk.
00:42:53.040 What he said
00:42:53.860 in his tweet
00:42:54.400 is that, yeah,
00:42:55.080 he sees the
00:42:56.660 defense of
00:42:58.360 self-defense
00:42:59.460 being valid
00:43:00.440 in this case,
00:43:01.420 but he still
00:43:02.360 thinks that
00:43:02.980 Rittenhouse
00:43:03.460 is not an
00:43:05.040 angel in the
00:43:05.700 sense that he
00:43:06.260 quote,
00:43:07.260 came there,
00:43:07.980 and this is a
00:43:08.600 quote from
00:43:09.100 Cenk in
00:43:10.060 hopes he
00:43:10.600 could shoot
00:43:11.000 someone.
00:43:12.860 What?
00:43:14.200 Where's that
00:43:14.940 in evidence?
00:43:16.440 Where's the
00:43:17.040 evidence that
00:43:17.660 Rittenhouse came
00:43:18.420 there in hopes
00:43:19.160 he could shoot
00:43:19.680 someone?
00:43:21.000 If you come
00:43:21.680 with a
00:43:23.540 medical kit
00:43:24.880 and you
00:43:27.540 stated to
00:43:28.180 everybody that
00:43:28.780 you're going
00:43:29.300 to be defending
00:43:29.960 some property,
00:43:31.580 you're cleaning
00:43:32.100 graffiti,
00:43:33.540 which part of
00:43:34.320 that indicates
00:43:35.480 to Cenk that
00:43:36.360 he came with
00:43:36.920 the hopes to
00:43:37.440 shoot someone?
00:43:37.980 That seems
00:43:39.720 like quite the
00:43:40.640 opposite of
00:43:41.420 all the
00:43:41.940 evidence,
00:43:42.440 isn't it?
00:43:43.180 Now, again,
00:43:44.560 no matter how
00:43:45.200 much evidence
00:43:45.840 there is,
00:43:46.600 I can't read
00:43:47.360 his mind
00:43:47.720 any more
00:43:48.160 than Cenk can.
00:43:49.260 So I'm not
00:43:49.940 going to read
00:43:50.340 Rittenhouse's
00:43:50.920 mind and say,
00:43:51.500 oh, I see in
00:43:52.300 there no bad
00:43:54.160 intentions.
00:43:55.820 I can't do
00:43:56.600 that.
00:43:57.200 But the other
00:43:57.860 thing I can't
00:43:58.420 do is I
00:43:59.140 looked into
00:43:59.640 his mind,
00:44:00.780 and although
00:44:01.240 all of his
00:44:01.880 actions looked
00:44:02.900 opposite,
00:44:03.880 I can see that
00:44:04.540 what he's
00:44:04.980 secretly thinking
00:44:05.840 is he'd
00:44:06.320 like to
00:44:06.640 shoot
00:44:06.840 somebody.
00:44:09.500 That's
00:44:09.980 cognitive
00:44:10.420 dissonance.
00:44:11.580 If you have
00:44:12.360 to rely on
00:44:13.320 mind reading
00:44:14.040 in public,
00:44:15.900 your argument
00:44:16.600 is gone,
00:44:17.600 but you
00:44:18.000 can't release
00:44:18.620 it yet.
00:44:19.500 So you
00:44:20.200 sort of
00:44:21.020 shift it
00:44:21.480 to something
00:44:22.040 that's
00:44:23.060 adjacent to
00:44:24.160 your argument
00:44:24.600 that you
00:44:24.980 can hold
00:44:25.380 on to.
00:44:26.120 But there
00:44:26.500 wasn't anything
00:44:27.100 adjacent to
00:44:27.780 his argument
00:44:28.220 he could
00:44:28.520 hold on to
00:44:28.980 either.
00:44:29.800 So he
00:44:30.340 didn't get
00:44:30.620 anything.
00:44:31.360 He just
00:44:31.680 got a whiff.
00:44:33.400 Shot and
00:44:33.920 miss.
00:44:34.160 All right.
00:44:37.800 So the
00:44:38.380 bottom line
00:44:39.500 here is that
00:44:40.180 our government
00:44:40.640 has turned
00:44:41.360 against the
00:44:41.900 people,
00:44:42.920 is not
00:44:44.380 defending us
00:44:45.080 against China
00:44:46.200 whatsoever.
00:44:48.200 They're not
00:44:48.920 helping us
00:44:49.540 with fentanyl
00:44:50.640 at all,
00:44:52.080 not helping
00:44:52.620 us protect
00:44:53.580 the border
00:44:54.100 at all,
00:44:56.180 and they're
00:44:57.420 putting Americans
00:44:58.340 in jail to
00:44:59.360 make an
00:45:00.300 example.
00:45:02.080 To make
00:45:02.520 an example.
00:45:04.160 As soon
00:45:05.120 as you
00:45:05.340 hear that
00:45:05.780 any
00:45:06.040 American
00:45:06.440 is being
00:45:06.880 put in
00:45:07.420 jail
00:45:07.680 to make
00:45:09.120 an example,
00:45:10.700 you should
00:45:11.080 be done
00:45:11.440 with your
00:45:11.760 government.
00:45:12.820 Because we
00:45:13.320 don't do
00:45:13.680 that.
00:45:14.800 That's not
00:45:15.560 the America
00:45:16.200 I will
00:45:16.640 stand for.
00:45:18.140 Now,
00:45:18.940 again,
00:45:19.580 I get the
00:45:20.440 distinction,
00:45:21.180 the government
00:45:21.660 versus the
00:45:22.280 people.
00:45:22.720 I love
00:45:23.100 the people.
00:45:24.380 So I'm
00:45:25.020 very pro-
00:45:25.960 American
00:45:26.800 people.
00:45:28.280 And I'm
00:45:28.700 still
00:45:28.900 completely
00:45:29.620 pro-
00:45:30.020 the
00:45:30.200 republic.
00:45:31.480 So I
00:45:32.000 like the
00:45:32.320 republic.
00:45:32.660 I like
00:45:34.020 the people.
00:45:35.080 I think
00:45:35.480 America has
00:45:36.780 done great
00:45:37.620 things and
00:45:38.040 will do
00:45:38.300 more great
00:45:38.740 things.
00:45:40.040 But the
00:45:41.280 government,
00:45:42.480 current
00:45:42.820 government,
00:45:43.620 has to
00:45:44.480 fail.
00:45:45.520 They have
00:45:45.880 to fall.
00:45:46.920 Because they've
00:45:47.660 gone too
00:45:48.020 far and
00:45:48.780 everybody can
00:45:49.460 see it now.
00:45:50.500 You can see
00:45:51.020 from the
00:45:51.620 poll results,
00:45:52.820 everybody can
00:45:53.300 see it.
00:45:54.300 It's now
00:45:55.020 really obvious.
00:45:56.780 Americans are
00:45:57.500 being hunted
00:45:57.920 just to make
00:45:58.900 a political
00:45:59.320 point.
00:46:00.220 Can't live
00:46:00.700 in that
00:46:00.940 country.
00:46:02.140 So that's
00:46:02.700 not going
00:46:03.000 to stand.
00:46:04.220 We won't
00:46:05.040 have that.
00:46:06.020 We will
00:46:06.420 not be
00:46:06.920 Australia.
00:46:08.200 The Second
00:46:08.720 Amendment
00:46:09.100 exists for
00:46:09.960 a reason.
00:46:11.480 This is
00:46:11.900 it.
00:46:12.760 Now, I'm
00:46:13.200 not saying
00:46:13.580 use guns,
00:46:14.180 of course.
00:46:14.880 I'm saying
00:46:15.360 that the
00:46:16.260 government
00:46:16.600 ultimately is
00:46:17.740 going to
00:46:17.980 do what
00:46:18.340 you tell
00:46:18.680 it to
00:46:18.960 do.
00:46:20.180 Why?
00:46:21.080 Because
00:46:21.320 the Second
00:46:21.720 Amendment.
00:46:23.280 I mean,
00:46:23.860 not entirely
00:46:24.440 because of
00:46:25.360 that.
00:46:25.920 They want
00:46:26.440 to keep
00:46:26.660 their jobs
00:46:27.160 and get
00:46:27.500 good ratings
00:46:28.040 and all
00:46:28.340 that stuff
00:46:28.720 too.
00:46:28.920 But the
00:46:29.780 people have
00:46:30.260 complete power
00:46:31.100 in this
00:46:31.380 country.
00:46:32.240 We're not
00:46:32.720 fucking
00:46:33.040 Australia.
00:46:34.540 In Australia,
00:46:35.260 the government
00:46:35.620 has power
00:46:36.180 over the
00:46:36.500 people.
00:46:37.520 Not here.
00:46:39.020 Not here.
00:46:39.960 Not ever.
00:46:41.460 Not here.
00:46:42.220 Not ever.
00:46:44.080 In America,
00:46:45.220 the people
00:46:45.600 control the
00:46:46.220 government and
00:46:47.380 it's time to
00:46:49.100 exert that
00:46:49.660 control.
00:46:50.220 Now, probably
00:46:50.680 it will just
00:46:51.020 be the
00:46:51.280 2022 election.
00:46:52.880 Could be
00:46:53.400 protests or
00:46:54.300 something.
00:46:55.000 But we have
00:46:56.060 mechanisms in
00:46:56.820 place.
00:46:57.980 But now
00:46:58.360 it's time.
00:46:59.480 Now, if you
00:47:00.180 think that I'm
00:47:00.620 telling you you
00:47:01.120 should elect
00:47:01.880 Trump, I'm
00:47:03.700 not.
00:47:04.700 I'm not.
00:47:05.620 I'd like to
00:47:06.200 see who's
00:47:06.520 running.
00:47:07.540 If you think
00:47:08.280 that I will
00:47:08.780 uncritically
00:47:09.560 support Trump
00:47:10.720 if he gets
00:47:11.200 into the race,
00:47:11.840 you're wrong.
00:47:13.280 Because if
00:47:14.000 DeSantis is in
00:47:14.840 the race, I'm
00:47:15.300 probably going
00:47:15.740 to back him.
00:47:17.080 Sorry.
00:47:19.660 Now, if
00:47:20.480 Trump wins
00:47:21.980 the primary,
00:47:22.760 I probably
00:47:23.160 will back
00:47:23.640 him.
00:47:23.800 but Republicans,
00:47:26.940 you need to
00:47:27.780 get your
00:47:28.860 house in
00:47:29.320 order of
00:47:29.660 what you
00:47:29.880 want to
00:47:30.200 do.
00:47:30.820 I'm not
00:47:31.160 a Republican,
00:47:31.880 and I
00:47:32.000 won't advise
00:47:32.480 you.
00:47:33.620 But I'm
00:47:34.800 just saying,
00:47:36.020 DeSantis is
00:47:36.820 looking really
00:47:37.420 strong.
00:47:38.880 Trump is
00:47:39.760 stronger on
00:47:41.840 a lot of
00:47:42.220 things, I
00:47:42.640 think, but
00:47:43.480 also brings
00:47:44.100 some
00:47:44.300 controversy, and
00:47:45.260 he's also
00:47:45.620 of a certain
00:47:46.120 age.
00:47:46.580 maybe change
00:47:49.700 is necessary.
00:47:51.540 But on the
00:47:52.060 other hand,
00:47:52.860 Trump is
00:47:53.300 probably the
00:47:53.920 only personality
00:47:54.980 who can do
00:47:55.520 some of the
00:47:56.160 things that
00:47:56.540 need to get
00:47:56.960 done.
00:47:58.140 He can go
00:47:58.900 further against
00:47:59.760 China, for
00:48:00.260 example, I
00:48:00.780 think, than
00:48:02.000 maybe somebody
00:48:02.540 else could.
00:48:03.700 So Trump
00:48:04.680 has big
00:48:05.400 benefits, but
00:48:06.760 also big
00:48:07.240 costs.
00:48:08.920 I've always
00:48:09.440 said he's an
00:48:09.940 expensive
00:48:10.400 president, but
00:48:11.260 you get your
00:48:11.840 money's worth.
00:48:13.940 Trump's the
00:48:16.980 better story,
00:48:17.560 that's correct.
00:48:18.420 If you do
00:48:19.220 the prediction
00:48:19.800 that the
00:48:20.220 better story
00:48:20.840 always wins,
00:48:21.500 it's definitely
00:48:22.180 a Trump
00:48:22.620 comeback.
00:48:24.060 Definitely.
00:48:25.180 Now, I
00:48:26.200 could definitely
00:48:26.660 support Trump
00:48:27.520 from the
00:48:29.200 get-go if
00:48:30.160 I thought
00:48:31.320 maybe he'd
00:48:32.020 change some
00:48:32.840 of his
00:48:33.160 approach or
00:48:35.220 change his
00:48:35.760 priorities or
00:48:36.400 something.
00:48:37.060 I could be
00:48:38.440 convinced, but
00:48:40.320 not right now.
00:48:43.940 Yeah, what
00:48:44.960 if Trump
00:48:45.400 pivots to
00:48:46.280 the kinder,
00:48:47.700 nicer, lame
00:48:48.700 duck version
00:48:49.460 of himself?
00:48:50.500 Now, here's
00:48:51.040 another thing.
00:48:51.960 Do you want
00:48:52.440 to elect a
00:48:53.440 lame duck
00:48:54.540 president from
00:48:55.300 the start?
00:48:57.440 And I
00:48:57.880 don't know,
00:48:58.240 that sounded
00:48:58.760 rhetorical, but
00:48:59.420 I don't know
00:48:59.740 the answer.
00:49:00.500 Because normally
00:49:02.160 the second
00:49:02.720 term of a
00:49:03.360 president can
00:49:04.340 be a little
00:49:04.740 dicey, because
00:49:05.500 everybody knows
00:49:06.120 they're on
00:49:06.380 the way out.
00:49:07.540 If Trump
00:49:08.320 is elected,
00:49:08.940 it's his
00:49:09.240 second term.
00:49:10.680 So he's a
00:49:11.460 certain age,
00:49:12.140 and he's
00:49:13.120 sort of, you
00:49:13.820 know, on
00:49:14.640 the way
00:49:14.900 out.
00:49:15.860 DeSantis
00:49:16.300 would be a
00:49:17.200 first-term
00:49:17.760 president with
00:49:18.480 another term
00:49:19.120 to go.
00:49:20.280 So if you
00:49:20.900 wanted to
00:49:21.280 hold power
00:49:22.080 for longer,
00:49:24.600 DeSantis is
00:49:25.540 a better
00:49:25.840 bet.
00:49:27.820 Because Trump
00:49:28.500 could easily
00:49:29.080 turn the
00:49:29.540 country, you
00:49:30.340 know, flip
00:49:30.780 the Congress
00:49:31.480 back the
00:49:31.880 other direction,
00:49:32.620 just because
00:49:33.100 people get
00:49:33.540 worked up
00:49:34.000 about him.
00:49:36.080 No way in
00:49:36.980 hell would I
00:49:37.400 vote for
00:49:37.800 Scott.
00:49:40.480 Am I
00:49:41.120 running?
00:49:43.120 Better to
00:49:44.120 have Trump
00:49:44.480 as vice
00:49:44.940 president.
00:49:45.560 If you
00:49:47.080 want Trump
00:49:47.500 to have
00:49:47.820 a third
00:49:48.840 term, just
00:49:50.440 vote for
00:49:50.860 somebody who
00:49:51.420 will do
00:49:51.680 whatever Trump
00:49:52.200 tells him
00:49:52.560 to do.
00:49:54.220 You could
00:49:54.820 get it that
00:49:55.260 way.
00:49:56.660 Can you
00:49:57.140 talk about
00:49:57.480 how the
00:49:57.700 grocery industry
00:49:58.460 is corrupt?
00:49:59.740 I'll give you
00:50:00.160 one example.
00:50:01.080 When I had
00:50:01.460 my product,
00:50:02.280 it got
00:50:02.700 placed into
00:50:04.100 7-Elevens,
00:50:06.080 which is a
00:50:06.620 gigantic,
00:50:07.680 you know,
00:50:08.600 break for a
00:50:09.380 new food
00:50:10.040 company.
00:50:10.540 We actually
00:50:10.980 got a shelf
00:50:11.440 space on
00:50:12.000 7-Elevens.
00:50:13.280 And then
00:50:13.920 when we
00:50:14.260 went to
00:50:14.680 check to
00:50:15.340 see how
00:50:15.700 it was
00:50:16.080 doing,
00:50:17.160 we couldn't
00:50:17.700 find it
00:50:18.080 anywhere on
00:50:18.540 the shelf.
00:50:20.200 Oh, it
00:50:20.480 was there.
00:50:22.060 But the
00:50:23.160 other food
00:50:23.960 companies,
00:50:25.180 Kraft in
00:50:25.720 particular,
00:50:26.700 they have
00:50:27.140 people on
00:50:27.580 the ground
00:50:27.940 who will
00:50:28.200 come in
00:50:28.520 and put
00:50:28.920 their product
00:50:29.420 in front
00:50:29.840 of your
00:50:30.080 product if
00:50:30.660 it's a
00:50:30.960 competing
00:50:31.260 product.
00:50:32.480 So it's
00:50:33.220 a known
00:50:33.760 thing.
00:50:34.160 It's called
00:50:34.360 burying it
00:50:34.820 on the
00:50:35.060 shelf.
00:50:36.360 So the
00:50:37.080 food business
00:50:38.300 is, and
00:50:39.060 then Safeway,
00:50:40.440 I'll name
00:50:40.900 names,
00:50:41.240 Safeway is
00:50:42.680 essentially a
00:50:43.560 fraudulent
00:50:45.000 operation, the
00:50:47.480 way they
00:50:47.780 treat the
00:50:48.280 vendors who
00:50:49.080 provide food.
00:50:50.240 So they'll
00:50:50.640 sell you some
00:50:51.220 space on the
00:50:51.840 bottom shelf,
00:50:54.640 and when I
00:50:55.140 say sell it
00:50:55.780 to you, I
00:50:56.220 mean they'll,
00:50:56.920 they make you
00:50:57.460 pay to be in
00:50:58.020 the store.
00:50:59.080 And then after
00:50:59.760 you've paid as
00:51:00.360 much as you're
00:51:00.860 going to pay,
00:51:01.320 they say,
00:51:01.720 well, there
00:51:02.020 was another
00:51:02.360 fee.
00:51:03.480 You say,
00:51:04.060 what?
00:51:04.420 We didn't
00:51:04.720 negotiate any
00:51:05.280 other fee.
00:51:06.040 We've paid
00:51:06.480 everything we're
00:51:07.000 going to pay
00:51:07.400 to be on the
00:51:07.860 shelf.
00:51:08.660 They say,
00:51:09.080 well, you
00:51:09.480 know, you
00:51:09.660 don't have
00:51:09.980 to, but
00:51:10.360 we'll take
00:51:10.700 you off the
00:51:11.080 shelf.
00:51:11.960 And you
00:51:12.140 say, okay,
00:51:12.640 okay, I'll
00:51:13.440 pay this
00:51:13.780 extra fee.
00:51:15.000 Just keep
00:51:15.460 us on the
00:51:15.880 shelf.
00:51:16.760 And the
00:51:17.220 next month
00:51:17.760 they give
00:51:18.100 you another
00:51:18.860 extra fee.
00:51:20.380 And you
00:51:20.820 say, wait
00:51:21.140 a minute,
00:51:21.800 this is now
00:51:22.960 an extra fee
00:51:23.640 on top of
00:51:24.120 an extra fee.
00:51:25.360 None of
00:51:25.660 this was
00:51:25.960 ever discussed.
00:51:26.660 And they
00:51:27.680 say, you
00:51:28.720 don't have
00:51:29.060 to pay
00:51:29.380 it.
00:51:30.380 You
00:51:30.560 can just
00:51:30.860 be off
00:51:31.780 the
00:51:31.940 shelf.
00:51:34.060 So, yeah,
00:51:35.240 Safeway,
00:51:36.100 Kraft, those
00:51:37.480 are corrupt
00:51:38.040 corporations.
00:51:40.100 And they run
00:51:41.320 a corrupt
00:51:41.640 business.
00:51:42.700 And the food
00:51:43.380 industry in
00:51:43.880 general is
00:51:44.300 like that,
00:51:44.760 actually.
00:51:49.160 All right, I
00:51:49.980 need to run.
00:51:51.440 Can't stay long
00:51:52.240 today.
00:51:52.720 And I'll
00:51:53.180 talk to you
00:51:53.680 tomorrow.
00:51:53.940 Bye.
00:51:54.960 Bye.
