Summary

Touch is not on the option set, because if they answer "touch" then all they get is what they already have. It's a total scam. And it's even worse if it's a woman's fault that she doesn't say touch.

00:00:00.040 Hey, good morning, and welcome to, sorry, the highlight of civilization.
00:00:07.780 And if you think it can't get any better than this, well, that would be a reasonable thing to think,
00:00:13.280 because, I mean, look how good it is already.
00:00:15.920 But believe it or not, believe it or not, it can go up another level.
00:00:19.760 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or flask,
00:00:25.220 a vessel of any kind.
00:00:26.880 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:28.760 I like coffee.
00:00:31.800 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.
00:00:35.620 It's the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes you tingle with anticipation.
00:00:39.860 It's going to make your whole day better.
00:00:41.900 You just watch.
00:00:42.940 Go.
00:00:47.300 Oh, yeah.
00:00:49.740 Oh, yeah.
00:00:51.860 Well, I was just thinking of this before I came on,
00:00:56.660 and so I'm just going to throw this in here.
00:00:59.760 Have you ever heard of the, is it the five or four languages of love?
00:01:04.700 Which is it?
00:01:05.420 Is it four or five?
00:01:06.440 I can't remember.
00:01:07.480 It was a big book.
00:01:08.800 Was it Gary Chapman, maybe?
00:01:11.700 Languages of love.
00:01:12.420 And the idea was that everybody has a preferred way, is five, everybody has a preferred way to be loved.
00:01:21.720 So, for example, some people like words of affirmations.
00:01:26.140 You say good things about them.
00:01:28.080 Some people like acts of service.
00:01:31.280 You do something for them that's kind or nice.
00:01:34.380 Others like touch.
00:01:36.360 Touch.
00:01:37.180 What are the other ones?
00:01:38.880 So I'm forgetting two.
00:01:40.100 So we've got touch, acts of kindness, time spent, time spent.
00:01:47.360 BJs, that's it.
00:01:48.320 No, no, that wasn't one of them.
00:01:50.840 It was a very good guess, BJs, but no.
00:01:53.440 Quality time, right?
00:01:55.700 Acts of service, quality time.
00:01:56.960 Gifts, that's what it was, gifts.
00:01:59.340 So gifts, acts of service, time spent, touch.
00:02:05.620 That's the idea.
00:02:06.400 Now, that sounds like a pretty good framework, doesn't it?
00:02:12.440 Wouldn't you love, wouldn't you love to be able to break people down that easily?
00:02:19.440 It's like, oh, it looks like I'm dating one of these, one of these.
00:02:24.580 It's like, ah, give them some stuff.
00:02:27.160 But let me tell you what a scam this is.
00:02:32.360 Biggest scam in the world.
00:02:36.400 Aw, thank you, Eric.
00:02:41.200 Appreciate that.
00:02:43.820 Here's why it's a scam.
00:02:46.800 What do men say when you say what's your language of love?
00:02:50.920 Anybody?
00:02:51.940 What do men say?
00:02:54.900 Touch.
00:02:57.440 It's just touch.
00:02:58.380 Basically, if you're willing to touch a man, then we feel, oh, you must like me if you're
00:03:04.640 willing to touch me.
00:03:06.360 But pretty much nothing else works.
00:03:09.840 Pretty much nothing else.
00:03:11.980 Right?
00:03:12.640 Now, imagine if you got food without the touch, though.
00:03:15.720 You're saying, oh, food works.
00:03:17.720 But suppose you only got food.
00:03:20.280 That wouldn't work.
00:03:21.620 Would it?
00:03:22.660 It's just touch.
00:03:23.360 Now, what do women say when you say, what is your language of love?
00:03:29.200 What do they say?
00:03:30.920 What do women say?
00:03:31.980 Have you ever asked a woman?
00:03:33.880 Somebody says everything.
00:03:38.540 Acts of service and gifts.
00:03:41.380 Acts of service and gifts.
00:03:44.260 Usually love one or two.
00:03:45.840 It'll be one of those or the other one.
00:03:47.880 Now, do you see the scam yet?
00:03:51.260 It's a total scam.
00:03:54.200 Because if you ask somebody what their language of love is, let me write, if you don't see
00:03:59.580 how big of a scam this is, if you ask a woman what her language of love is, why would she
00:04:05.500 say touch when that's the part she gets all the time?
00:04:10.380 Too much of it.
00:04:13.200 No woman is going to answer the question touch.
00:04:15.500 Touch is not on the option set.
00:04:18.100 Because if they answer touch, all they get is what they already had.
00:04:22.280 Yeah, your husband wants to touch you.
00:04:23.780 Your boyfriend wants to touch you.
00:04:25.360 If they answer, uh, gifts, then they get all of the touch and gifts.
00:04:36.160 Right?
00:04:36.860 What if they say, you know, my language of love is acts of service.
00:04:43.160 Well, then they get their husband to do more of the housework, and they still get the same
00:04:49.260 amount of touch.
00:04:51.060 The whole thing is a fucking con.
00:04:54.120 It's a total con.
00:04:55.760 And I actually fell for it for years.
00:04:57.860 For years, I thought, you know, that's amazing how well that breaks that down.
00:05:01.560 But then you actually start trying it out.
00:05:04.280 And every time that I, every time I asked anybody female what their language of love was, I was
00:05:09.740 waiting for touch.
00:05:11.560 Like, well, if she says touch, it's go time.
00:05:15.320 Just say touch.
00:05:16.120 Say touch.
00:05:17.360 Uh, acts of service.
00:05:19.380 Gifts, but also gifts.
00:05:22.080 Yeah.
00:05:22.660 What about touch?
00:05:24.240 Mm, no, not really.
00:05:25.700 No, not really.
00:05:26.400 Doesn't mean much to me.
00:05:27.700 Because you got it for free.
00:05:30.060 Of course you don't mention that one.
00:05:33.020 All right?
00:05:33.360 Now, suppose I'm going to show you a, the stand-up comedian's method.
00:05:39.220 You've seen this before, right?
00:05:40.700 It's so, uh, it's so, you know, standard that I hate to do it.
00:05:46.380 But it'll teach you that it's a standard thing.
00:05:48.860 You say, what if somebody else acted that way?
00:05:52.520 So now that you've established how women quite logically act, they're not going to ask for
00:05:57.280 something they already have.
00:05:58.880 They're going to ask for something they don't have.
00:06:01.020 Duh.
00:06:02.340 So then you do the trick where you say, well, what if men acted like that?
00:06:06.760 Uh, imagine your wife comes up to you and you say, uh, honey, what is your language of
00:06:12.420 love?
00:06:13.000 And, and you say, you know, I'm glad you asked.
00:06:16.380 I'm glad we're communicating.
00:06:18.920 My language of love is acts of service.
00:06:22.020 Acts of service.
00:06:23.940 What?
00:06:24.880 Yeah.
00:06:25.240 Acts of service.
00:06:26.500 Because I don't feel you're doing enough, uh, work.
00:06:30.120 Uh, you could call them chores or maybe, uh, tasks.
00:06:36.360 But I don't, I don't think you're doing enough projects for my benefit.
00:06:40.180 And if you did, oh my God, I'd love you.
00:06:44.080 For example, you see that fence over there?
00:06:46.680 Badly indeed a painting.
00:06:48.440 And you know how much I complain about it.
00:06:51.000 If I came home one day and I saw you like in your overalls and you were painting that
00:06:55.900 fence for me, honey, I would love you so hard.
00:07:00.220 I would love you so hard.
00:07:03.800 I like the touching too, but really I like, I like when I come home and I see stuff got
00:07:09.180 done.
00:07:10.480 That would make me love you so hard.
00:07:13.360 Now, how'd that go over ladies?
00:07:14.640 So when I told you my language of love, ladies, anybody, did you say to yourself when you're
00:07:20.940 listening to me, there's a guy I want.
00:07:24.700 There's a guy who's not afraid to make me do some work.
00:07:28.540 Yeah.
00:07:29.400 He, he knows that I put the dishes in the dishwasher, but he's saying he'd love me more
00:07:34.260 if I also took them out and put them away.
00:07:37.420 Like before we were sharing that, but I feel like I need to step up and show my love by doing
00:07:44.160 a little extra work.
00:07:47.240 So to everybody who tried to scam me with the language of love con, fuck you.
00:07:53.980 I caught on.
00:07:55.280 I finally caught on.
00:07:56.740 No, I'm not going to give you fucking gifts.
00:07:59.120 I'm not going to be your goddamn butler.
00:08:02.320 Please.
00:08:03.320 If you want to be with me, touch me or get the fuck away from me.
00:08:07.320 I'm not your fucking butler.
00:08:09.360 I'm not your fucking amazon.com.
00:08:12.100 You work that stuff out yourself.
00:08:14.160 All right.
00:08:15.560 And don't con me with your stupid fucking book about how I'm supposed to act because
00:08:19.960 it's just a con.
00:08:23.180 Can we move on?
00:08:24.180 AOC had a video in which she said she's sort of modeling for her constituents acts of resistance
00:08:37.240 because, as you know, we live in a time in which you really have to push back against
00:08:45.300 the evil forces that are forming against us.
00:08:49.660 And so AOC has shown how she models her resistance and specifically as a woman.
00:08:57.780 Now, I do assume she identifies as a woman.
00:09:01.300 I have not checked that.
00:09:02.620 So if I'm assuming too much, I apologize.
00:09:05.940 But I believe that was the context.
00:09:08.740 And so her active resistance in this world where bodily autonomy is being challenged for
00:09:17.040 women especially, she showed on her video that she was going to get her nails done.
00:09:23.240 And the context was when she was young, she was a religious household, and it was frowned on
00:09:30.180 to get your nails done.
00:09:31.800 And so as an act of defiance, now as a member of Congress, she's going to show you that she
00:09:38.580 can get her nails done anytime she wants, just because she wants.
00:09:44.940 Now, that's the kind of leadership that I think this country needs, right?
00:09:50.860 Nothing about, you know, Russia or trade deals or things like that.
00:09:55.560 But this is sort of the small public act of defiance that I think every woman should get behind.
00:10:01.800 In fact, I think you should do less of everything else you're doing and more of this, because
00:10:08.100 it's a twofer.
00:10:09.400 Not only do you look more lovely, if you do it right, you know, get your nails done, maybe
00:10:15.460 have a hair appointment, possibly buy a new outfit.
00:10:18.600 That is the type of resistance that I support.
00:10:24.460 And I would even go so far as to say that's my language of love.
00:10:27.900 So I did fall in love with AOC when she said she was getting her nails done, because as
00:10:35.040 she's making herself more attractive to my lustful intentions, I think that is exactly the
00:10:40.660 kind of wooing that I want.
00:10:43.540 I believe she's trying to seduce me.
00:10:47.020 I mean, it looks like she's talking to the public, but I feel like it's really to me.
00:10:52.360 Does anybody else get that feeling?
00:10:54.020 It's just to me.
00:10:54.760 Yeah, it's heroic.
00:10:56.140 That's the word I've been searching for.
00:10:58.180 Thank you, Alpha.
00:11:00.240 That was exactly the right word.
00:11:02.140 She's not just telling us what to do.
00:11:05.740 She's modeling it.
00:11:07.440 She's modeling it.
00:11:09.120 And she didn't make a big deal about this, but it looked like she was on foot, walking
00:11:15.680 to get her nails done.
00:11:16.640 And if you've seen how worn out her shoes are, you know that she's taken some sacrifice
00:11:25.540 for this resistance.
00:11:27.520 Well, let's talk about January 6 hearings and the three things that they've taught us regarding
00:11:33.700 the miracle of mind reading.
00:11:36.320 The miracle of mind reading.
00:11:38.420 So here's what we've learned from the January 6th committee.
00:11:40.960 Number one, Trump's inner thoughts about the validity of the vote count are things you
00:11:47.560 can know.
00:11:48.940 You can actually know what his inner thoughts are.
00:11:52.700 Interesting.
00:11:53.680 Now, before the January 6th committee, I actually thought there wasn't a way to do that.
00:12:00.340 I thought, okay, don't brain scan.
00:12:02.800 You know, you're just guessing.
00:12:03.860 But no, it turns out you can actually know what somebody was thinking.
00:12:10.560 So we know his inner thoughts about the validity of the vote count, but we also know his inner
00:12:14.780 thoughts about just how the protests would unfold and exactly what he was thinking about
00:12:21.940 the dangers to the various people and the risk-reward.
00:12:25.100 It's not stated anywhere, but this is what we've learned, that we can know that anyway,
00:12:32.020 the private inner thoughts of what he was thinking.
00:12:35.820 And importantly, and this is also highly related, we can tell what Trump really meant
00:12:43.560 even when his words are the opposite of that.
00:12:51.000 So let me give you an example.
00:12:52.220 That doesn't sound reasonable, right?
00:12:54.340 That you can tell what he really meant on the inside by looking at his words, which
00:12:59.180 actually say the opposite of what we now know is on the inside of his head because of psychic
00:13:04.680 abilities.
00:13:06.100 So, for example, when he was talking to, was it Rafsenberger or whatever, the Secretary of
00:13:11.580 State of Georgia, and on the phone call, he allegedly said, all we need to do is, you know,
00:13:16.180 find X number of votes.
00:13:18.680 Find.
00:13:18.980 Find.
00:13:19.980 Now, if you're using find in the normal way, let's say you were an automobile manufacturer.
00:13:30.320 Let's say you're Tesla.
00:13:31.400 And you've run out of cars because you've already sold all you have.
00:13:36.780 What would you do if you ran out of cars and you needed more cars?
00:13:42.600 Would you find them?
00:13:45.600 Would you find the cars?
00:13:47.380 Or would you manufacture them because they don't exist in the first place?
00:13:51.600 Which would you do?
00:13:52.480 Well, according to Democrats, you don't want to go the hard way, which is manufacture them
00:13:59.080 because that's going to cost something, right?
00:14:01.240 You've got to buy materials.
00:14:02.500 There's time and labor.
00:14:03.620 Put it all together.
00:14:04.800 Make sure it works.
00:14:05.640 Quality control.
00:14:06.380 That's a lot of work.
00:14:07.320 But the alternative, which we've learned, is that you can just find things.
00:14:13.140 So when things don't exist, the two words that mean the same thing, according to Democrats,
00:14:18.920 and I didn't know this until now, but manufacturing something that doesn't exist and finding something,
00:14:26.900 those actually mean the same thing.
00:14:28.920 Now, you would say it's opposite, probably before I explained it to you, right?
00:14:33.940 You would say, well, that's opposite.
00:14:37.580 Finding it means it already exists.
00:14:40.720 Manufacturing it means it doesn't exist.
00:14:43.100 Are those not opposites?
00:14:44.340 Finding something that exists versus creating something that doesn't exist.
00:14:50.580 Kind of opposites, aren't they?
00:14:52.340 But that's what we learned, is that when Trump says we only need to find the votes,
00:14:58.280 which some people mistakenly thought was a reference to some irregularities,
00:15:04.860 and if there was an audit, they might discover that the vote count was different than they originally thought.
00:15:11.840 And that would be sort of a standard way, old days, how they used the word find, F-I-N-D.
00:15:18.800 That's what it meant.
00:15:19.700 But now it doesn't mean that.
00:15:20.760 Now it means the same as manufacture.
00:15:23.540 So when Elon Musk needs more cars to sell, he no longer needs his manufacturing plants.
00:15:32.280 Completely waste of money.
00:15:34.040 He could have done what Trump suggests and just find the cars.
00:15:38.140 Just find them.
00:15:39.420 It's just cheaper.
00:15:40.140 You know, it's common sense.
00:15:42.260 Why would you build something when you could just find it?
00:15:45.140 And it's exactly the same thing, according to Democrats.
00:15:48.560 All right.
00:15:54.020 I'm going to keep on this point.
00:15:56.700 And I'm trying, I'm A-B testing a bunch of messaging.
00:16:01.040 So you're going to see the same story through a bunch of filters,
00:16:04.820 and then you tell me which one works, okay?
00:16:07.140 Here's the next take on the same thing.
00:16:09.940 I call this, what are the fucking odds?
00:16:13.520 And it's from a tweet today.
00:16:14.980 I said, the most shameless yet effective part of the January 6th gaslighting operation
00:16:20.420 is that it depends on convincing the public Trump privately believed he lost the election.
00:16:26.480 Now, I'm no mind reader.
00:16:31.060 I'm no mind reader.
00:16:33.240 But let's just think about what are the odds that Trump didn't literally believe that he won and something was wrong?
00:16:43.800 What are the fucking odds?
00:16:48.680 And if I were asked to testify, I won't be.
00:16:51.980 Or I were interviewed on CNN, I won't be.
00:16:55.760 And they said, well, you know, we believe that Trump knew that he lost the election,
00:17:01.660 and therefore that's why it's an insurrection and not a request for an audit.
00:17:06.400 If he didn't know, then he was just requesting an audit, so he did know, right?
00:17:14.420 That would be a completely different situation.
00:17:17.420 So the entire January 6th thing depends on one fact, what he knew.
00:17:26.240 Am I wrong?
00:17:27.720 If you change your assumption of what Trump knew, it's all different.
00:17:32.080 And let me ask you, what would be the more reasonable assumption of what he knew?
00:17:40.420 Think of Trump's personality.
00:17:42.880 Think of the fact that it looked in every way, his rally size, you know, the enthusiasm,
00:17:50.720 and then the vote count was going his way until about bedtime.
00:17:54.460 Given all those facts,
00:17:55.660 do you think that Trump privately, in his own mind, the unspoken thoughts,
00:18:02.640 do you think he actually thought he lost?
00:18:05.800 Or let me put it in other words,
00:18:08.100 what are the fucking odds that he really believed he lost?
00:18:13.400 And this is where you use the really thing.
00:18:16.140 Really?
00:18:17.840 Imagine sitting next to a Democrat and they say, well, he knew he lost.
00:18:21.340 You just look at him and there's nobody else around,
00:18:23.140 and you just say, really?
00:18:26.280 Have you been watching this president for even one second?
00:18:30.000 Do you know anything about him?
00:18:31.860 Like, even the first thing that everybody knows about Trump,
00:18:35.140 do you know anything about him?
00:18:36.940 Because if he did, the last thing you would think is that he believed he lost.
00:18:43.600 Now, this is independent from, you know, whether the vote was raved or not.
00:18:47.260 I'm not even talking about that.
00:18:49.040 I'm just saying what he believed.
00:18:50.280 There isn't really any chance, not reasonably, that he really believed he lost.
00:18:57.040 Right?
00:18:57.920 Does anybody believe that?
00:18:59.980 And could you get a Democrat to actually look you in the face
00:19:03.460 and not joke and actually make direct contact and say to you,
00:19:09.500 see if he can do this.
00:19:10.580 This would actually be a good test.
00:19:11.940 See if he can get somebody to look you in the face
00:19:13.760 and tell you seriously, I believe that legitimately Trump knew,
00:19:21.460 not suspected, because suspected isn't enough.
00:19:24.580 We're not going for suspected.
00:19:27.020 Knew.
00:19:28.220 Give somebody to look you in the eye and tell you, really?
00:19:31.460 Yeah, I believe Trump knew he lost,
00:19:34.020 because that would be compatible with his personality.
00:19:37.140 Would it?
00:19:37.600 Really?
00:19:39.380 Really?
00:19:41.100 Believing he lost would be compatible with his personality.
00:19:45.440 Really?
00:19:46.320 No.
00:19:47.480 Not when there's ambiguity about, you know, the outcome.
00:19:51.240 Now, you know, you could argue at this point
00:19:53.680 no shenanigans have been proven by any court,
00:19:59.540 and I agree with that.
00:20:00.800 So I've always accepted the election from the day it was called.
00:20:04.940 You know, until something changes my mind,
00:20:07.980 and I don't have that in front of me.
00:20:09.780 Lots of sketchy-looking things,
00:20:12.040 but nothing that would change my mind yet.
00:20:14.560 But there's no way in hell he believed he lost that election.
00:20:19.980 I'm not a mind reader,
00:20:21.780 but remember, in order to be guilty of something,
00:20:24.540 you've got to be sure.
00:20:26.360 You can't be guessing.
00:20:28.220 And even if you say,
00:20:29.180 well, Sky, you're just guessing what he thought, too.
00:20:31.820 Exactly.
00:20:33.420 Exactly.
00:20:33.820 I'm just guessing what he thought.
00:20:37.180 Now, it's a good guess,
00:20:39.440 but you don't put people in jail
00:20:40.880 because you guessed what they thought.
00:20:43.080 Do you?
00:20:44.320 And the Democrats are literally talking about
00:20:46.740 putting Trump in jail
00:20:47.980 based on guessing what he thought.
00:20:55.600 That's really happening.
00:20:57.640 You don't think Republicans are being hunted?
00:21:00.020 In public, right in front of you.
00:21:03.480 With nothing being hidden,
00:21:04.520 it's right in front of you.
00:21:05.260 You can look at all of it yourself.
00:21:06.640 There's nothing I say that you can't just observe directly.
00:21:09.460 They have shown no evidence of a crime.
00:21:14.020 And Lawrence Tribe just said he believes that Merrick Garland will indict Trump.
00:21:22.340 He says he believes he will indict him
00:21:23.820 based on what has already been shown in the January 6th hearings.
00:21:27.440 And CNN also reported that there are people who think he'll get indicted.
00:21:34.280 Do you know what's missing?
00:21:35.460 What's missing from that story?
00:21:38.740 For what?
00:21:40.860 For what?
00:21:41.780 I haven't even heard a crime be alleged.
00:21:45.440 Have you?
00:21:47.360 I have not even heard a crime alleged.
00:21:51.400 The gaslighting operation is so extensive
00:21:55.060 that they've caused reasonable people to say
00:21:58.160 they think he'll be indicted
00:21:59.400 when no crime has even been alleged.
00:22:04.780 He'll be indicted for the crime
00:22:06.660 of which nobody has a name for,
00:22:08.300 a description of,
00:22:10.500 or any evidence for.
00:22:14.000 That's happening right in front of you.
00:22:16.320 It's the most amazing gaslighting operation of all time.
00:22:21.280 Now, of course,
00:22:22.100 it depends on having one side show the information
00:22:25.340 and the other side not responding,
00:22:26.860 which is what we have.
00:22:28.500 So I'll tell you,
00:22:29.360 and I tweeted this,
00:22:32.840 well, the first thing I ask is
00:22:34.380 why don't we have any professional psychics at the hearings?
00:22:39.300 Because if the entire,
00:22:41.140 and I think you would agree with this,
00:22:42.680 the entire case depends on what Trump was thinking, right?
00:22:45.880 Have I established that
00:22:46.960 as an assumption you'd agree with yet?
00:22:49.540 The entire case depends what he was thinking.
00:22:53.060 Because my assumption,
00:22:54.460 again, I can't prove what he was thinking,
00:22:56.020 but so it's an assumption.
00:22:57.740 My assumption,
00:22:59.620 based on what I would have been thinking
00:23:01.140 if I'd been in that situation,
00:23:02.760 is that the protesters on large,
00:23:05.380 not every single one,
00:23:06.580 and that Trump and his people on large,
00:23:09.920 may have been some exceptions,
00:23:11.580 but generally speaking,
00:23:12.680 they thought that they were trying to fix an election
00:23:15.440 that was broken.
00:23:17.000 And if he believed it was really a broken election,
00:23:20.540 his intentions matter to everything.
00:23:23.000 He was either trying to fix something that was broken
00:23:25.560 and the country would want fixed,
00:23:28.020 or he was trying to overthrow the country.
00:23:30.760 And the only way you know which one it was,
00:23:35.000 because the facts and evidence
00:23:36.440 support both hypotheses completely,
00:23:39.320 the facts and evidence
00:23:40.740 completely support those two hypotheses.
00:23:44.580 One, that he thought it was wrong,
00:23:46.900 and he was trying to fix it
00:23:48.080 for the good of everybody.
00:23:49.900 And the other is that
00:23:50.920 he didn't believe it was true,
00:23:52.880 but he was going to try to take over the country anyway.
00:23:54.840 So, if the entire case
00:23:57.600 depends on knowing what he was thinking,
00:24:00.800 and Democrats are very big on trust the experts,
00:24:05.920 why have no professional psychics
00:24:08.020 been invited to testify?
00:24:10.900 Because in this case,
00:24:12.140 they would be the experts.
00:24:13.980 Am I wrong?
00:24:15.600 Now, you have to believe
00:24:16.980 that mind reading is actually real,
00:24:19.720 which it isn't,
00:24:21.400 but if you believe it was real,
00:24:23.840 and that's been demonstrated to be true.
00:24:26.460 So, we know that the Democrats believe
00:24:28.680 mind reading is real
00:24:30.320 based on how they act, right?
00:24:31.920 So, all of their actions
00:24:33.120 are consistent with that.
00:24:34.360 Again, I'm not mind reading,
00:24:36.040 but all of their actions
00:24:36.900 are consistent with
00:24:38.040 they believe they can see his inner thoughts.
00:24:40.320 Well, if you believe that that's a thing,
00:24:43.100 if you believe people can know
00:24:44.540 people's inner thoughts,
00:24:45.400 why would you depend on amateurs?
00:24:48.560 You should actually have the psychics.
00:24:50.320 And if I were a Republican
00:24:52.600 and trying to, you know,
00:24:54.260 make a scene,
00:24:55.520 I would actually have an event
00:24:57.140 in which I invited psychics
00:24:59.780 to read Trump's mind
00:25:01.780 during January 6th
00:25:03.640 because it's the only thing that matters.
00:25:06.740 And here's the devastating kill shot.
00:25:09.960 Here's the kill shot for January 16th.
00:25:13.060 Make them admit only one thing matters,
00:25:15.580 what Trump was thinking.
00:25:17.680 That's it.
00:25:18.180 All that matters is what he was thinking.
00:25:21.940 Make them admit
00:25:22.780 that everything depends on that.
00:25:25.440 That's it.
00:25:26.720 As soon as they admit
00:25:27.560 it all depends on what he was thinking,
00:25:29.720 then you have to say,
00:25:30.920 all right, let's get serious
00:25:32.240 about determining what he was thinking.
00:25:34.340 We have some testimony
00:25:36.540 from people who are
00:25:37.660 familiar with his thinking.
00:25:40.620 Is that a thing?
00:25:41.520 Have you ever had people
00:25:43.800 who are familiar with your thinking
00:25:45.800 get your thinking wrong?
00:25:47.640 You know who would be really familiar
00:25:49.200 with your thinking in your life?
00:25:51.420 Your spouse.
00:25:53.120 Right?
00:25:54.020 I mean, who would be more familiar
00:25:55.480 with your thinking
00:25:56.300 than your spouse?
00:25:58.220 And your spouse never is wrong
00:25:59.740 about what you're thinking, right?
00:26:01.020 I mean, really?
00:26:06.400 Really?
00:26:07.240 The people who know you best
00:26:08.860 don't have a fucking idea
00:26:10.180 what you're thinking.
00:26:11.980 Almost never.
00:26:14.160 The people closest to you
00:26:15.880 don't know what you're thinking.
00:26:17.120 So when I hear about some advisor
00:26:18.780 familiar with the president's thinking,
00:26:21.780 that is so gaslighting.
00:26:23.860 The fact that you would even entertain that
00:26:25.600 as like a real thing.
00:26:27.200 You should be embarrassed if you do.
00:26:28.840 You should be embarrassed.
00:26:32.240 All right.
00:26:33.100 So here's also what is missing.
00:26:34.760 And if I were Republicans,
00:26:35.700 I would have this event too.
00:26:37.000 I would invite astrologers
00:26:38.320 to tell us what Trump
00:26:40.780 was probably thinking on January 6th.
00:26:43.580 Now, like Trump, I'm a Gemini.
00:26:47.040 And I would put myself forward
00:26:48.620 as an expert.
00:26:50.120 Because a Gemini knows
00:26:51.960 what a Gemini is thinking.
00:26:53.980 Am I right?
00:26:55.240 Astrology tells us that's true.
00:26:57.340 And that's science.
00:26:58.120 That is science, people.
00:27:00.100 The science of astrology.
00:27:02.060 So I think they should bring in
00:27:03.720 more psychics,
00:27:05.640 bring in more astrologists,
00:27:07.740 because if you're not even trying
00:27:09.360 to get expert testimony
00:27:10.760 on what Trump was thinking,
00:27:12.380 you're just guessing.
00:27:14.060 You're just guessing.
00:27:15.460 And why would you guess
00:27:16.380 when you have experts
00:27:17.320 in the very field
00:27:19.080 that it matters most,
00:27:20.720 which is mind reading?
00:27:22.680 Get your expert mind readers, please.
00:27:24.760 Put them on the list.
00:27:26.520 And astrologers.
00:27:27.280 Andrew Sullivan had a
00:27:30.120 interesting article today
00:27:33.100 in which he basically says
00:27:36.440 it's now obvious
00:27:37.420 that Trump knew of the plans,
00:27:39.340 knew about the weapons there,
00:27:41.180 and the risk of the weapons,
00:27:42.940 and was totally behind
00:27:44.560 the move on the Capitol.
00:27:47.540 That's what Andrew Sullivan
00:27:49.340 got out of the hearings so far.
00:27:51.660 Did anybody watch
00:27:52.700 the same hearings he watched?
00:27:53.960 Did you see any of that?
00:27:57.920 Now, what's interesting about it
00:27:59.340 is that Andrew Sullivan is smart,
00:28:01.200 and he has a history
00:28:03.660 of being able to see
00:28:04.520 both sides of the political aisle.
00:28:08.120 But I've seen a lot of the hearings
00:28:14.120 and clips and stuff,
00:28:15.180 and I didn't see anything like this,
00:28:16.440 nor have I seen any reporting on it.
00:28:18.000 But he tells us, like,
00:28:19.240 it's a fact that it's now obvious
00:28:21.300 that Trump knew of the plans.
00:28:23.520 What plans exactly did he know of?
00:28:26.980 Did he know that they were going to
00:28:28.520 physically threaten Pence?
00:28:31.700 And if he knew that,
00:28:34.080 did he think that was actually
00:28:35.240 a real risk,
00:28:36.100 or did he think,
00:28:36.640 ah, the Secret Service has this,
00:28:38.120 that's not a real risk?
00:28:39.680 Because remember,
00:28:40.440 the president gets threatened
00:28:42.000 to be killed basically every day.
00:28:43.520 What does the president do
00:28:45.940 when he gets a death threat?
00:28:49.980 Nothing.
00:28:51.660 Because he gets one every day.
00:28:53.480 If you're the president,
00:28:54.540 what do you think of death threats?
00:28:57.020 He'd gone through four years
00:28:58.360 of death threats himself, Trump.
00:29:01.200 And he had not been killed yet.
00:29:03.240 Do you know why?
00:29:04.580 He had Secret Service protection,
00:29:06.420 and he thinks they're pretty good at it.
00:29:09.020 Now, Pence had Secret Service protection,
00:29:11.160 so did Trump necessarily believe
00:29:14.960 that he was in danger
00:29:15.960 when death threats to a president
00:29:18.720 or a vice president probably
00:29:19.800 are so routine
00:29:20.800 and the Secret Service is so qualified?
00:29:24.900 Probably they were fine.
00:29:26.860 Now, we all mourn the tragedy
00:29:29.520 of Ashley Babbitt being shot that day.
00:29:33.180 But the fact is,
00:29:34.320 the Secret Service,
00:29:35.420 or whoever was guarding Trump,
00:29:38.060 they were pretty strapped, weren't they?
00:29:39.640 I mean, I'm pretty sure they were armed,
00:29:42.860 and I'm pretty sure
00:29:43.520 they could have just started blazing
00:29:44.900 if things got tough,
00:29:45.980 and it would have been, you know,
00:29:47.060 tragedy on top of tragedy
00:29:48.500 on top of tragedy.
00:29:50.020 But I'm pretty sure
00:29:51.000 they could have protected Pence.
00:29:53.000 Am I wrong?
00:29:54.780 Do you think the crowd
00:29:55.880 could have actually gotten to Pence?
00:29:57.400 Let's say they breached the final door
00:30:00.180 wherever Pence was.
00:30:03.520 There would be so many bullets
00:30:05.400 flying through that door,
00:30:07.440 the crowd would just be mowed down.
00:30:09.920 And I don't think the crowd
00:30:11.380 had enough firepower
00:30:12.320 that they would have responded
00:30:13.420 in any way except,
00:30:15.080 you know, medical emergency.
00:30:17.040 So now, if you were Trump,
00:30:19.200 did you actually think
00:30:20.580 Pence was in danger?
00:30:22.540 Probably not.
00:30:24.220 Because I'm not sure
00:30:25.040 I would have processed it
00:30:26.560 at the time
00:30:27.160 as a real danger
00:30:28.700 because it's so,
00:30:30.220 it's such a background danger
00:30:31.740 that a president deals with every day.
00:30:33.800 Well, we've got another bomb threat
00:30:35.420 at the White House.
00:30:36.860 Should we evacuate?
00:30:37.660 Anyway, nah.
00:30:39.900 Didn't look serious.
00:30:42.160 Don't you think that happens
00:30:43.260 literally every day?
00:30:44.900 Don't you think the White House
00:30:45.880 gets some kind of terrorist threat
00:30:47.680 to the White House
00:30:48.560 basically every day?
00:30:51.020 And they don't, you know,
00:30:52.080 evacuate every day.
00:30:53.220 So I've got a feeling
00:30:54.040 that you get used to
00:30:55.040 that kind of thing
00:30:55.660 when you're president
00:30:56.280 and probably didn't process it
00:30:58.040 as an actual threat.
00:30:59.640 Now again,
00:31:01.140 am I reading Trump's mind?
00:31:02.420 No, I couldn't possibly
00:31:03.720 know what he was thinking.
00:31:04.640 I'm just giving you
00:31:05.260 some context
00:31:05.960 and saying what would you think
00:31:07.760 if you were in that situation?
00:31:10.120 Who knows?
00:31:11.420 But you also don't know
00:31:12.280 what Trump was thinking.
00:31:14.080 Well, we've learned
00:31:15.060 that CNN has learned
00:31:16.780 to prove a negative.
00:31:20.120 And here's an example.
00:31:22.260 Daniel Dale,
00:31:22.920 their fact checker,
00:31:24.700 wrote this.
00:31:27.120 He said,
00:31:27.860 a leading Republican candidate
00:31:29.580 for governor of Arizona,
00:31:31.000 Carrie Lake,
00:31:32.080 continues to put lies
00:31:33.400 about the 2020 presidential election
00:31:35.320 at the center of her campaign.
00:31:37.380 This week,
00:31:38.320 calling it, quote,
00:31:39.060 disqualifying and sickening
00:31:40.680 for a rival candidate
00:31:42.200 not to say
00:31:43.400 that the election was stolen
00:31:44.760 and then, comma,
00:31:46.380 and this is Daniel Dale's statement,
00:31:48.920 though it wasn't stolen.
00:31:51.200 Though it wasn't stolen.
00:31:53.500 Now he's the fact check guy,
00:31:55.540 so you should take that as a fact.
00:31:57.860 How is the fact demonstrated?
00:31:59.940 How is it proved?
00:32:02.900 How do you prove something
00:32:04.100 didn't happen?
00:32:06.160 You can't.
00:32:07.640 But they did.
00:32:08.820 So until I read this,
00:32:10.020 I thought, well,
00:32:11.080 if you haven't checked
00:32:12.420 everything that can be checked,
00:32:14.320 you haven't looked at the technology,
00:32:16.100 the database,
00:32:17.260 you haven't looked at any logs
00:32:19.060 about data going across,
00:32:21.480 how would you know
00:32:22.420 it wasn't stolen?
00:32:24.420 Now let me be clear.
00:32:26.340 I'm not saying it was stolen.
00:32:27.620 I have no evidence of that.
00:32:29.500 But you know what I also
00:32:30.500 don't have evidence of?
00:32:32.500 That it wasn't stolen.
00:32:34.640 There are two things
00:32:35.660 that are unknown.
00:32:36.700 Was it stolen?
00:32:37.720 I don't know.
00:32:38.800 Was it not stolen?
00:32:40.160 I don't know.
00:32:41.580 Nobody knows.
00:32:43.400 Those are two things
00:32:44.280 that are unknowable
00:32:45.200 that CNN has now,
00:32:47.220 one of them has been
00:32:48.900 presented to you as a fact.
00:32:50.800 And unknowable
00:32:51.860 has been presented as a fact.
00:32:54.240 Let me say it again.
00:32:56.700 Right in front of you,
00:32:58.880 the gaslighting is so extreme
00:33:00.620 that right in front of you,
00:33:02.640 right where you can see it,
00:33:03.780 nothing's being hidden,
00:33:05.220 they're telling you
00:33:05.900 that a thing that you know
00:33:07.120 is unknowable
00:33:08.540 has been proven.
00:33:13.200 And they can write that
00:33:14.780 right on their page
00:33:15.740 with no shame.
00:33:17.600 That's how extensive
00:33:19.900 the gaslighting is.
00:33:21.480 The people will accept
00:33:22.960 that the thing they know
00:33:24.600 can't be known.
00:33:26.160 They all know
00:33:27.100 it can't be known,
00:33:28.380 don't they?
00:33:28.940 Well, that would be mind reading.
00:33:30.480 One assumes,
00:33:31.520 one assumes,
00:33:33.320 that most people know
00:33:34.260 if you haven't audited it all,
00:33:36.460 you can't know.
00:33:37.940 Right?
00:33:39.100 But no.
00:33:41.620 Here's my favorite
00:33:43.220 auto accident story.
00:33:44.880 There was a truck,
00:33:47.620 semi-truck accident
00:33:48.860 in Utah
00:33:49.460 that released
00:33:51.800 some bees.
00:33:54.060 So some bees
00:33:54.980 were in the back
00:33:55.560 of the truck
00:33:55.980 and they got released.
00:33:57.640 And that didn't sound too bad.
00:33:59.900 A bunch of bees
00:34:00.740 got released.
00:34:01.500 You think, well,
00:34:02.980 you know,
00:34:03.260 they weren't African killer bees.
00:34:05.200 I mean,
00:34:05.420 how bad could it be?
00:34:07.380 There were 10 million bees
00:34:09.140 in the truck.
00:34:13.080 10 million bees
00:34:14.480 were released
00:34:15.840 in the same place
00:34:16.740 at the same time.
00:34:19.360 10 million bees.
00:34:23.960 Now,
00:34:24.640 I don't know
00:34:25.960 how fast I can run,
00:34:28.100 but I feel like
00:34:29.520 I would have discovered it
00:34:30.660 had I been anywhere
00:34:31.860 near that truck.
00:34:33.180 I think you would have seen
00:34:34.060 this, like,
00:34:34.500 dark cloud of,
00:34:35.400 like,
00:34:36.080 of, you know,
00:34:37.240 of bees
00:34:38.140 darkening the sky.
00:34:40.140 And I'd be there.
00:34:41.820 Uh-huh.
00:34:42.140 Now I'm going to see
00:34:44.400 how fast I can run.
00:34:46.240 Before,
00:34:46.840 it was just
00:34:47.360 playing around.
00:34:48.840 But right now,
00:34:50.040 you're going to see
00:34:50.740 literally
00:34:51.640 how fast I can run.
00:34:54.120 Bees in the truck.
00:34:55.200 10 million.
00:34:57.500 All right.
00:35:01.680 Interestingly,
00:35:02.760 CNN,
00:35:03.360 when it gave a rundown
00:35:05.120 of what we've learned
00:35:06.120 so far
00:35:06.520 about January 6th,
00:35:07.500 here's one of the things
00:35:09.080 that CNN
00:35:09.640 pointed out
00:35:11.420 with a full paragraph
00:35:12.320 that I think
00:35:14.160 we have to give them
00:35:14.860 credit for.
00:35:15.600 Because, you know,
00:35:16.060 we're looking for their
00:35:16.820 move toward the middle
00:35:17.640 to see if that's real
00:35:18.700 or if that's a fake out.
00:35:21.160 But one of the
00:35:22.260 titled paragraphs
00:35:24.160 of many titled paragraphs
00:35:25.880 here
00:35:26.140 is that the hearings
00:35:27.780 are only showing you
00:35:28.540 one side of the story.
00:35:30.500 And they go on
00:35:31.440 to show that
00:35:31.880 the two Republicans,
00:35:32.940 you know,
00:35:33.220 are not exactly
00:35:34.040 Republican Republicans.
00:35:35.120 that's pretty good.
00:35:39.100 Actually,
00:35:39.580 I was surprised.
00:35:40.500 Are you surprised?
00:35:42.060 Because calling out
00:35:43.120 to their audience
00:35:43.800 that it's one-sided,
00:35:45.700 even though it's
00:35:46.280 obviously one-sided,
00:35:47.680 I don't know
00:35:48.460 that their audience
00:35:49.260 was sophisticated
00:35:50.080 enough to notice.
00:35:51.160 Because if you're
00:35:51.640 just dipping in and out,
00:35:53.520 you don't notice
00:35:54.220 what's missing.
00:35:54.940 You just notice
00:35:55.500 what you saw.
00:35:56.960 So for them
00:35:57.760 to call it out
00:35:58.460 and say,
00:35:58.900 you know,
00:35:59.060 you should keep in mind
00:36:00.860 that you're only seeing
00:36:02.140 one side of the story,
00:36:03.080 they're basically telling you
00:36:04.360 that you should expect
00:36:06.720 it to be a biased presentation.
00:36:09.420 How about that?
00:36:11.260 Can we give them
00:36:12.160 credit for that?
00:36:13.740 Now,
00:36:14.040 I think,
00:36:14.460 you know,
00:36:14.960 elsewhere in their reporting,
00:36:16.440 they kind of,
00:36:18.040 let's say they walk
00:36:19.540 on this point
00:36:20.100 a little bit.
00:36:21.060 Because you should
00:36:21.760 sort of mention this point
00:36:23.080 in every element
00:36:24.180 of the story.
00:36:25.300 But you only heard
00:36:26.140 one side.
00:36:28.000 Every part of the story
00:36:29.080 should be the same.
00:36:30.420 Here's what we think
00:36:31.960 has been shown,
00:36:32.620 but you're not
00:36:33.860 hearing the other side.
00:36:36.280 But I'll take it.
00:36:37.820 I'll give them
00:36:38.660 some credit for it.
00:36:43.100 Here's what else
00:36:43.880 they said, though,
00:36:44.700 so we can take away
00:36:45.620 their credit.
00:36:46.160 This is CNN's reporting.
00:36:48.060 That vote tried,
00:36:49.980 Trump's effort
00:36:50.780 to influence
00:36:51.540 vote counting
00:36:52.280 was widespread.
00:36:54.020 His effort
00:36:54.620 to influence
00:36:55.480 vote counting.
00:36:56.780 Is that what happened?
00:36:58.680 Is that a straight reporting?
00:37:00.200 Or is that
00:37:02.400 mind-reading?
00:37:04.380 Because we know
00:37:05.360 what he did.
00:37:06.080 We know what phone calls
00:37:07.060 he made.
00:37:07.860 We know what the words
00:37:08.740 he said.
00:37:09.940 But do we know
00:37:10.960 his intention?
00:37:12.820 Because if his intention
00:37:14.040 was to, quote,
00:37:15.080 influence the vote count,
00:37:17.580 do you mean
00:37:18.940 influence it
00:37:19.680 as in rig it?
00:37:21.460 Because that's not
00:37:22.340 an evidence.
00:37:24.080 Or was he trying
00:37:25.160 to influence it
00:37:26.120 toward more accuracy?
00:37:27.460 Because what I see,
00:37:31.220 at least the overt,
00:37:32.620 you know,
00:37:32.920 the words that are
00:37:33.860 actually in evidence,
00:37:35.700 I see him trying
00:37:36.500 to influence
00:37:37.420 the vote counting,
00:37:39.180 not the vote,
00:37:39.780 but the counting
00:37:40.360 of the vote
00:37:41.260 toward accuracy.
00:37:43.860 Now, who else
00:37:44.620 was trying to do that?
00:37:46.700 Who else involved
00:37:47.900 in the story,
00:37:49.440 you know,
00:37:49.660 from the state level
00:37:50.720 to the Congress
00:37:51.700 to everybody,
00:37:54.260 literally everybody?
00:37:55.260 What was
00:37:55.820 every single person
00:37:57.080 in the story
00:37:57.680 from Trump
00:37:58.440 to, you know,
00:38:00.440 Adam Schiff
00:38:01.000 to everybody?
00:38:01.840 What were they all
00:38:02.720 trying to do?
00:38:05.500 They were trying
00:38:06.360 to influence
00:38:07.020 the vote counting.
00:38:09.320 Were they not?
00:38:11.300 Wasn't every person
00:38:12.680 in the story
00:38:13.960 who was involved
00:38:14.640 in any way
00:38:15.480 trying to influence
00:38:17.080 the vote counting?
00:38:17.940 And they were trying
00:38:18.640 specifically
00:38:19.720 to influence it
00:38:20.780 toward making it
00:38:21.480 more reliable.
00:38:23.140 Am I wrong?
00:38:24.080 Now, maybe,
00:38:26.080 hypothetically,
00:38:26.760 there was somebody
00:38:27.240 behind the scenes
00:38:27.960 trying to do the opposite.
00:38:29.320 We don't have
00:38:29.780 that evidence.
00:38:31.120 But,
00:38:31.800 why are we blaming
00:38:33.900 Trump for trying
00:38:34.840 to influence
00:38:35.620 the vote counting
00:38:36.500 when literally
00:38:37.820 every fucking person
00:38:39.840 was doing that?
00:38:42.020 Including me.
00:38:43.780 Do you know
00:38:44.140 what I was doing
00:38:44.800 around January 6th?
00:38:46.580 I was trying
00:38:47.500 really hard
00:38:47.980 to influence
00:38:48.580 the vote counting.
00:38:50.760 Do you know
00:38:51.500 what everybody
00:38:52.120 in Congress
00:38:52.780 was doing?
00:38:54.000 Trying pretty hard
00:38:55.120 to influence
00:38:56.460 the vote counting.
00:38:58.420 Do you know
00:38:58.740 what Trump
00:38:59.140 was doing?
00:39:00.240 Presumably,
00:39:01.180 trying to influence
00:39:02.320 the vote counting.
00:39:03.800 Everybody was trying
00:39:04.640 to do it.
00:39:05.660 We were all
00:39:06.360 trying to get it right,
00:39:07.740 but we had
00:39:08.180 different ideas
00:39:08.740 of what that
00:39:09.320 would look like
00:39:09.900 once it was right.
00:39:12.180 But,
00:39:13.460 the massive
00:39:15.300 balls it takes
00:39:17.080 to run this
00:39:18.500 kind of a
00:39:18.940 gaslighting campaign
00:39:20.060 where you use
00:39:21.280 words like
00:39:21.820 Trump was trying
00:39:22.760 to influence
00:39:23.380 the vote counting
00:39:24.040 when every
00:39:24.700 fucking person
00:39:25.720 was doing that.
00:39:26.640 Every fucking
00:39:27.640 person,
00:39:28.500 including me,
00:39:30.160 was trying
00:39:30.720 to influence
00:39:31.380 the vote counting
00:39:32.680 to make it better.
00:39:34.860 We were saying
00:39:35.440 stuff like,
00:39:36.620 why don't you
00:39:37.040 do a full audit?
00:39:38.660 Why don't you
00:39:39.180 pause a little
00:39:39.900 until we check?
00:39:41.900 Why don't we
00:39:42.600 see if we can
00:39:43.260 get into those
00:39:44.140 voting machines
00:39:45.280 and see if
00:39:45.880 those could be
00:39:46.480 audited?
00:39:46.780 Everybody who
00:39:48.640 said anything
00:39:49.280 like that,
00:39:50.220 including me,
00:39:51.480 we were all
00:39:54.060 trying to influence
00:39:54.720 the vote counting.
00:39:55.260 So why would
00:39:56.080 Trump be
00:39:56.500 indicted for it?
00:39:57.940 For doing
00:39:58.500 everything that
00:39:59.080 the entire
00:39:59.500 country was
00:40:00.060 doing at the
00:40:00.520 same time?
00:40:02.040 But he'll get
00:40:02.580 indicted for it,
00:40:03.540 right?
00:40:04.960 Sure.
00:40:07.220 Here's the
00:40:07.780 other thing
00:40:08.120 that CNN
00:40:09.800 calls out,
00:40:10.480 because this
00:40:10.800 is an important
00:40:11.360 part of that
00:40:11.880 January 6th
00:40:12.600 story,
00:40:13.520 that Trump
00:40:13.960 was very
00:40:14.460 angry,
00:40:15.400 and there's
00:40:16.500 some reporting
00:40:17.600 that he may
00:40:18.140 have thrown
00:40:19.200 some ketchup
00:40:19.920 against a wall,
00:40:21.500 or maybe
00:40:22.000 thrown some
00:40:22.560 dishes.
00:40:24.140 Now, let me
00:40:25.060 put you on
00:40:25.540 the scene.
00:40:28.320 Is there a
00:40:29.340 president who
00:40:30.280 is not famous
00:40:31.120 for getting
00:40:31.640 angry?
00:40:33.300 Name the
00:40:34.000 president who
00:40:34.780 is not famous
00:40:36.660 for getting
00:40:37.240 angry enough to
00:40:38.460 at least throw
00:40:38.980 things and swear
00:40:39.720 and stuff like
00:40:40.220 that.
00:40:40.600 Probably Jimmy
00:40:41.200 Carter.
00:40:41.780 Yeah, Jimmy
00:40:42.280 Carter.
00:40:42.560 is probably
00:40:43.580 the only
00:40:43.900 one.
00:40:44.620 But basically,
00:40:45.580 reporting that
00:40:46.280 a president
00:40:46.720 was angry,
00:40:48.000 that's not
00:40:49.180 really telling
00:40:49.680 you anything.
00:40:51.280 That's not
00:40:51.820 Hillary Clinton.
00:40:53.340 Yeah, I'm
00:40:53.740 sure Obama
00:40:54.580 had some
00:40:55.220 angry words
00:40:57.040 behind the
00:40:58.520 things.
00:40:59.120 So anybody
00:40:59.800 who's saying
00:41:00.360 that a
00:41:00.780 president who
00:41:01.700 we can
00:41:03.160 speculate
00:41:03.760 believed an
00:41:05.440 election had
00:41:06.000 been stolen
00:41:06.560 from him,
00:41:07.900 how was he
00:41:08.760 supposed to
00:41:09.280 feel?
00:41:10.340 How would
00:41:11.020 you like
00:41:11.440 Trump if he
00:41:12.000 was not
00:41:12.400 angry about
00:41:13.780 that?
00:41:14.740 Who would
00:41:15.420 have voted
00:41:15.760 for him if
00:41:16.320 he didn't
00:41:16.640 get at least
00:41:17.100 that angry
00:41:17.640 about stuff?
00:41:19.680 Right?
00:41:20.200 They're confusing
00:41:21.120 the feature
00:41:21.660 with a bug.
00:41:25.060 Nobody would
00:41:25.960 have voted
00:41:26.340 for a
00:41:26.880 Trump who
00:41:28.100 was not
00:41:28.600 capable of
00:41:29.400 getting that
00:41:29.940 angry about
00:41:31.240 that situation.
00:41:33.020 Now, again,
00:41:33.800 he may have
00:41:34.400 mistaken the
00:41:35.320 situation.
00:41:36.600 Don't know.
00:41:38.140 But do you
00:41:39.240 want a
00:41:39.580 president who
00:41:40.520 can't get at
00:41:41.340 least that
00:41:42.060 angry about
00:41:43.420 that situation?
00:41:45.140 I wouldn't.
00:41:46.840 I'd want to
00:41:47.560 know my
00:41:47.920 president is
00:41:48.580 just fucking
00:41:49.180 crazy about
00:41:49.980 it.
00:41:50.920 And I'd
00:41:51.500 want to
00:41:51.740 know that
00:41:52.040 he would
00:41:52.320 fight just
00:41:52.800 as hard for
00:41:53.360 other stuff.
00:41:55.080 I'd want to
00:41:55.700 know he had
00:41:56.140 some passion
00:41:56.760 about doing
00:41:58.460 the right
00:41:58.840 thing.
00:41:59.680 Now, you
00:41:59.940 could argue
00:42:00.380 about whether
00:42:00.860 that was the
00:42:01.260 right thing.
00:42:01.780 But you
00:42:02.000 always want a
00:42:02.820 president with
00:42:03.320 some fight
00:42:03.840 in him,
00:42:04.420 don't you?
00:42:04.760 Did you want
00:42:06.200 a wimp for
00:42:06.700 a president?
00:42:07.100 And the
00:42:09.160 same would
00:42:09.460 apply for
00:42:09.840 the Democrats.
00:42:10.940 Do you want
00:42:11.340 the Democrat
00:42:11.840 who doesn't
00:42:12.300 get mad?
00:42:14.260 Were there
00:42:14.980 not stories of
00:42:15.880 Bill Clinton
00:42:16.460 getting angry
00:42:17.220 in office?
00:42:19.080 Can somebody
00:42:19.600 give me a
00:42:20.140 fact check on
00:42:20.700 that?
00:42:20.820 I feel like
00:42:21.240 I have this
00:42:21.580 vague memory
00:42:22.280 of Bill
00:42:24.060 Clinton getting
00:42:25.880 pretty heated
00:42:26.700 behind the
00:42:27.580 scenes.
00:42:28.060 Can somebody
00:42:28.620 confirm that?
00:42:31.240 He would
00:42:31.580 erupt in
00:42:32.080 office, right?
00:42:32.880 That was
00:42:33.340 actual reporting.
00:42:34.980 Now, that's
00:42:35.940 a Democrat.
00:42:37.100 Now, what
00:42:37.940 would be my
00:42:38.480 reaction to
00:42:39.200 that if I
00:42:39.980 heard that
00:42:40.320 Bill Clinton
00:42:40.780 got so mad
00:42:41.520 he threw
00:42:42.000 dishes?
00:42:43.940 What would
00:42:44.540 you say
00:42:44.780 about that?
00:42:45.700 Would you
00:42:46.020 say, oh,
00:42:46.460 he's unstable?
00:42:47.740 Or would
00:42:48.040 you say, yeah,
00:42:49.300 there's a
00:42:49.740 guy who's
00:42:50.280 showing up.
00:42:52.200 Like, there's
00:42:52.640 a guy who
00:42:52.940 showed up
00:42:53.280 for work.
00:42:54.680 Like, you
00:42:55.040 want the
00:42:55.440 guy who
00:42:55.780 throws some
00:42:56.220 dishes.
00:42:57.700 Democrat or
00:42:58.400 Republican.
00:42:59.900 So, to
00:43:00.760 put this on
00:43:01.920 the list of
00:43:02.460 things you
00:43:02.880 should maybe
00:43:03.500 be concerned
00:43:04.140 about is
00:43:05.720 to, I
00:43:07.080 think, take
00:43:07.680 it out of
00:43:08.020 context a
00:43:08.660 little bit.
00:43:10.080 I think you
00:43:10.820 want people
00:43:11.320 who are at
00:43:11.740 least that
00:43:12.260 mad.
00:43:12.680 Now, if
00:43:12.980 they'd said
00:43:13.340 he'd punched
00:43:13.940 a human or
00:43:14.840 kicked a
00:43:15.360 dog, well,
00:43:16.760 different story.
00:43:18.580 Different story.
00:43:19.980 But if he's
00:43:20.520 throwing a
00:43:21.000 dish, that's
00:43:22.100 just about
00:43:22.660 where I'd
00:43:23.100 want him.
00:43:23.960 That's just
00:43:24.700 about the
00:43:25.240 level of
00:43:25.640 anger that
00:43:26.740 I think is
00:43:27.240 the productive
00:43:27.780 level.
00:43:28.300 all right.
00:43:35.760 And that,
00:43:36.680 ladies and
00:43:37.100 gentlemen, is
00:43:40.080 everything I
00:43:40.560 wanted to
00:43:40.860 say.
00:43:42.800 I believe
00:43:43.560 it's another
00:43:44.120 triumph of
00:43:45.380 the thing we
00:43:45.980 call Coffee
00:43:46.900 with Scott
00:43:47.340 Adams.
00:43:48.320 Another
00:43:48.800 highlight of
00:43:49.340 civilization.
00:43:50.480 Keeps getting
00:43:50.980 better.
00:43:52.460 And do you
00:43:53.120 all have
00:43:53.360 exciting plans
00:43:54.200 for the
00:43:54.460 weekend and
00:43:55.180 for the
00:43:55.820 4th of
00:43:56.140 July?
00:43:57.380 Are you
00:43:58.020 celebrating?
00:43:59.840 Did I curse
00:44:00.660 too much
00:44:01.020 today?
00:44:02.180 We've got a
00:44:02.480 small audience
00:44:03.080 today.
00:44:04.760 That's because
00:44:05.440 you're all out
00:44:05.980 there holidaying
00:44:06.760 and you
00:44:07.460 should be.
00:44:09.220 Trump has a
00:44:10.080 complicated
00:44:10.500 relationship with
00:44:11.440 ketchup.
00:44:16.040 All right.
00:44:17.100 Let me ask
00:44:17.840 you another
00:44:18.080 question.
00:44:18.800 You know
00:44:19.040 the aide to
00:44:21.400 Trump who
00:44:22.040 testified,
00:44:22.800 Hutchinson is
00:44:23.820 her name?
00:44:24.120 Try to look
00:44:26.680 at Hutchinson's
00:44:27.560 face and
00:44:29.540 then imagine
00:44:30.100 her blonde.
00:44:31.760 Who is
00:44:32.420 she?
00:44:34.320 Just take
00:44:35.420 a look at
00:44:35.720 her face and
00:44:36.540 then just
00:44:36.860 imagine her
00:44:37.360 blonde.
00:44:38.420 Who is
00:44:38.800 she?
00:44:41.780 She looks
00:44:42.540 exactly like
00:44:44.200 Amber Heard,
00:44:44.820 doesn't she?
00:44:45.760 She looks
00:44:46.140 like a blonde
00:44:46.640 Amber Heard.
00:44:48.620 There's
00:44:49.100 something about
00:44:49.640 the face
00:44:50.500 that's kind
00:44:51.620 of, yeah,
00:44:53.160 Susan Sarandon
00:44:54.160 face, right?
00:44:55.100 It's sort
00:44:55.840 of suggestive
00:44:56.540 interestingly.
00:45:03.360 Do you
00:45:03.980 put ketchup
00:45:04.480 on eggs?
00:45:05.320 I don't eat
00:45:05.900 eggs that
00:45:06.440 way.
00:45:09.160 Jordan
00:45:09.640 Peterson
00:45:10.060 Twitter banned?
00:45:11.240 Did that
00:45:11.640 happen?
00:45:13.160 Did Jordan
00:45:13.660 Peterson get
00:45:14.280 Twitter banned?
00:45:14.820 I'm going
00:45:18.140 to guess
00:45:18.520 it's
00:45:18.720 something
00:45:18.920 about
00:45:19.220 trans.
00:45:20.540 How did
00:45:20.820 I do?
00:45:22.860 Something
00:45:23.320 about
00:45:23.620 trans?
00:45:25.340 Pronouns,
00:45:25.920 right?
00:45:27.380 Bingo.
00:45:28.980 Surprise.
00:45:31.060 Surprise.
00:45:31.540 Surprise.
00:45:32.740 You know,
00:45:33.080 I'll tell you
00:45:39.300 my view on
00:45:39.900 it.
00:45:40.720 Maybe I'm
00:45:41.280 just reiterating
00:45:41.960 this.
00:45:42.180 I feel
00:45:43.400 like the
00:45:43.840 Jordan
00:45:44.140 Petersons
00:45:44.760 who are,
00:45:46.600 and I'll
00:45:46.820 just put
00:45:47.160 them in
00:45:47.340 a category,
00:45:48.080 which is
00:45:48.500 unfair,
00:45:49.020 I know,
00:45:49.560 to put
00:45:49.780 anybody in
00:45:50.180 a category,
00:45:51.100 but let's
00:45:51.500 say the
00:45:51.840 people who
00:45:52.520 are publicly
00:45:54.680 fighting
00:45:55.300 against,
00:45:56.440 let's say,
00:45:57.240 trans options,
00:45:58.560 especially for
00:45:59.260 children.
00:46:02.420 There's a
00:46:03.460 problem with
00:46:04.060 that.
00:46:05.060 And the
00:46:05.380 problem is I
00:46:06.040 just don't
00:46:06.560 think the
00:46:06.940 trans thing
00:46:07.500 is special.
00:46:08.960 We act
00:46:09.820 like it's
00:46:10.200 special because
00:46:10.680 we're talking
00:46:11.160 about it.
00:46:12.180 But I
00:46:12.620 don't know
00:46:12.820 if it
00:46:13.020 is.
00:46:14.360 What I
00:46:14.860 see is
00:46:15.580 kids,
00:46:17.020 and with
00:46:17.740 the help
00:46:18.400 of their
00:46:18.740 adult keepers
00:46:20.480 or not,
00:46:21.360 making horrible
00:46:22.320 decisions all
00:46:23.140 the time.
00:46:24.460 Life-destroying
00:46:25.540 decisions all
00:46:26.320 the time.
00:46:27.300 And we
00:46:27.820 don't stop
00:46:28.300 them from
00:46:28.620 doing it.
00:46:29.520 Like,
00:46:29.820 we don't
00:46:30.600 interfere with
00:46:31.260 it,
00:46:31.980 as long as
00:46:32.440 it's legal.
00:46:33.820 Like,
00:46:34.120 we don't
00:46:34.400 say to
00:46:34.700 them,
00:46:34.900 you know,
00:46:35.520 you've
00:46:36.120 decided that
00:46:36.800 you're going
00:46:37.300 to work
00:46:38.820 hard at
00:46:39.340 figure skating,
00:46:40.560 but just
00:46:41.520 look at
00:46:41.860 you,
00:46:42.020 you're never
00:46:42.360 going to
00:46:42.580 be in
00:46:42.900 the Olympics.
00:46:43.920 I mean,
00:46:44.600 seriously,
00:46:45.120 just look at
00:46:45.600 you.
00:46:46.300 But you're
00:46:46.740 going to
00:46:46.840 make the
00:46:47.180 decision at
00:46:48.540 seven years
00:46:50.040 old or
00:46:50.460 whatever,
00:46:51.140 that that's
00:46:51.580 going to be
00:46:51.860 your thing,
00:46:52.360 and you put
00:46:52.680 all your
00:46:53.000 attention into
00:46:53.660 ice skating,
00:46:54.760 knowing you're
00:46:55.520 never going to
00:46:55.980 be in the
00:46:57.260 Olympics.
00:46:57.820 How's that?
00:46:58.380 Is that a good
00:46:59.300 decision?
00:47:00.500 I don't think
00:47:01.240 so.
00:47:02.020 I think that's a
00:47:02.880 really bad,
00:47:04.240 bad decision.
00:47:05.740 But we let
00:47:06.480 people make
00:47:07.040 it,
00:47:07.460 because it's
00:47:07.860 their life,
00:47:08.320 not ours,
00:47:08.820 right?
00:47:09.360 People get
00:47:09.980 to make
00:47:10.340 mistakes.
00:47:11.720 So I guess
00:47:12.160 that's what
00:47:12.500 it is.
00:47:13.920 Okay,
00:47:14.220 here's what
00:47:14.620 it is.
00:47:15.040 I finally,
00:47:15.860 just at this
00:47:16.460 very moment,
00:47:17.180 I just realized
00:47:17.780 what was
00:47:18.100 bothering me
00:47:18.620 about it,
00:47:19.220 because there's
00:47:19.660 something that
00:47:20.040 wasn't connecting.
00:47:22.240 Correct me if
00:47:22.960 I'm wrong,
00:47:24.280 but Jordan
00:47:24.840 Peterson would
00:47:25.520 also be
00:47:26.320 quite famous
00:47:29.000 for saying we
00:47:29.840 shouldn't live
00:47:30.300 in a nanny
00:47:30.800 state.
00:47:31.240 Is that a
00:47:32.700 fair characterization?
00:47:33.940 That the
00:47:34.480 government should
00:47:35.140 not be
00:47:35.520 micromanaging
00:47:36.380 our choices
00:47:37.720 and our
00:47:38.120 language and
00:47:38.660 our decisions?
00:47:39.600 Is that a
00:47:40.100 fair characterization?
00:47:41.240 Because I
00:47:41.620 really hate to
00:47:42.340 mischaracterize him
00:47:43.360 of all people.
00:47:45.240 I feel like he
00:47:46.320 would be the
00:47:46.760 easiest person
00:47:47.640 to mischaracterize
00:47:48.680 because he's
00:47:50.100 smarter than me.
00:47:52.240 It's easier to
00:47:54.820 characterize someone
00:47:55.620 else's opinion
00:47:56.260 if they're less
00:47:57.140 smart than you
00:47:57.780 are.
00:47:58.360 But if somebody's
00:47:59.000 smarter than you,
00:47:59.660 you always have to
00:48:00.340 wonder if you're
00:48:00.800 missing an angle
00:48:02.680 on this.
00:48:03.460 Like, well,
00:48:03.880 he's smarter than
00:48:04.580 I am, so maybe
00:48:05.900 he's got something.
00:48:06.560 So here's the
00:48:07.040 inconsistency.
00:48:09.480 If one believes
00:48:10.520 the government
00:48:11.020 should stay
00:48:11.600 under your life
00:48:12.300 for your private
00:48:13.700 decisions, why
00:48:14.720 is that different
00:48:15.460 for parents and
00:48:17.980 their child?
00:48:19.160 Now, it's the
00:48:20.640 children who you
00:48:22.440 think are making
00:48:23.060 the decision to
00:48:24.080 transition, and
00:48:26.440 then you think
00:48:26.980 the parents,
00:48:29.360 you think
00:48:30.240 some of you,
00:48:31.140 are thinking
00:48:31.460 the parents
00:48:31.900 are bad
00:48:32.240 parents because
00:48:33.440 they're letting
00:48:33.800 little kids make
00:48:34.540 decisions that
00:48:35.260 kids should not
00:48:36.060 be able to
00:48:36.520 make.
00:48:37.660 Right?
00:48:38.160 That would be a
00:48:39.080 common thing.
00:48:39.960 But what about
00:48:40.480 the idea of just
00:48:41.680 letting people live
00:48:42.660 their lives and
00:48:43.940 make their
00:48:44.340 mistakes?
00:48:45.300 The fact that you
00:48:46.280 think it's a
00:48:46.900 mistake, and by
00:48:47.760 the way, I don't
00:48:49.000 disagree.
00:48:50.360 I don't disagree
00:48:51.300 with that.
00:48:52.040 Some percentage of
00:48:53.180 people who make
00:48:53.900 the transition will
00:48:55.860 regret it.
00:48:56.480 I think the
00:48:58.200 trans community
00:48:58.840 would agree with
00:48:59.540 that.
00:49:00.080 Am I wrong?
00:49:01.560 Wouldn't that be a
00:49:02.800 universally agreed
00:49:03.840 statement?
00:49:04.900 Maybe you disagree
00:49:05.720 on the percentage,
00:49:07.320 but that's not the
00:49:08.060 point.
00:49:08.760 We all agree that
00:49:10.660 that's a decision
00:49:11.420 that has really,
00:49:13.160 really big
00:49:13.540 consequences, and
00:49:15.020 there's no way to
00:49:15.760 know for sure that
00:49:16.880 you got it right.
00:49:17.540 Right?
00:49:17.580 Now, for those of
00:49:23.020 you who are
00:49:23.280 saying, but, this
00:49:25.320 is different, because
00:49:26.120 this is child
00:49:27.760 abuse, I don't
00:49:29.920 know, I think
00:49:30.300 there's a lot of
00:49:30.840 stuff that could go
00:49:31.480 in that category, if
00:49:32.900 you wanted it to.
00:49:34.660 So, I'm not
00:49:36.480 disagreeing with
00:49:38.140 what's good for
00:49:38.760 people.
00:49:39.820 I'm only asking
00:49:41.020 you if you're being
00:49:41.820 consistent, and
00:49:43.620 could you support
00:49:44.260 it?
00:49:45.020 So, I'm not sure
00:49:46.560 you're seeing my
00:49:47.100 opinion here.
00:49:47.800 If you think you're
00:49:48.400 seeing my opinion
00:49:49.100 in this, then
00:49:50.900 remove that from
00:49:52.100 your thoughts.
00:49:53.240 You're not seeing
00:49:53.840 my opinion come
00:49:54.560 through what I'm
00:49:55.100 talking about.
00:49:56.700 I'm just making
00:49:57.520 statements that I
00:49:58.180 think you would all
00:49:58.720 agree with.
00:50:00.140 That it's
00:50:00.900 inconsistent to
00:50:02.800 say the government
00:50:03.460 should stay out of
00:50:04.320 your business,
00:50:05.140 except for this
00:50:05.860 thing.
00:50:07.140 But you might have
00:50:07.980 a reason for that
00:50:08.900 exception.
00:50:09.520 Just make sure you
00:50:10.080 have a reason for
00:50:10.680 it.
00:50:11.140 And just be aware
00:50:11.860 that it would be
00:50:12.400 an exception.
00:50:13.800 I'm always in favor
00:50:14.760 of exceptions, by
00:50:15.660 the way.
00:50:16.300 I'm not the
00:50:16.960 person who says,
00:50:17.560 oh, never make an
00:50:18.320 exception.
00:50:18.880 I think you have
00:50:19.340 to.
00:50:20.140 I live in the
00:50:20.780 real world.
00:50:21.360 You do make
00:50:21.820 exceptions.
00:50:24.140 And I think there
00:50:26.440 are plenty of
00:50:27.040 things you could say
00:50:27.600 about the schools.
00:50:29.520 Could we all agree
00:50:30.260 that the school
00:50:31.480 isn't who should be
00:50:33.160 determining your
00:50:34.020 kids' gender and
00:50:36.200 sex?
00:50:38.100 I think we could
00:50:39.140 agree there.
00:50:39.540 But if you agree
00:50:40.980 that the parents
00:50:41.800 should be in
00:50:43.520 control, and
00:50:44.880 part of the
00:50:45.380 parent decision
00:50:46.120 making is
00:50:46.760 listening to the
00:50:47.580 kid and deciding
00:50:48.940 if that should be
00:50:49.700 important or not,
00:50:50.500 what they say at
00:50:51.040 five years old.
00:50:52.460 But I really
00:50:53.700 sort of think
00:50:54.420 the government
00:50:57.280 needs to stay
00:50:58.020 out of it.
00:50:59.500 Now, if you
00:51:00.140 said to me,
00:51:01.000 Scott, I agree
00:51:01.920 with you, the
00:51:02.380 government needs
00:51:02.980 to stay out of
00:51:03.600 it, but how
00:51:04.020 about this?
00:51:05.240 How about putting
00:51:06.020 a lot more
00:51:06.480 resources into
00:51:07.300 making sure
00:51:07.980 people wait,
00:51:10.140 or they're at
00:51:10.800 least persuaded
00:51:11.640 to wait, to
00:51:13.840 make sure that
00:51:14.360 they're really
00:51:14.660 making the right
00:51:15.160 decision?
00:51:16.000 I'd say fine.
00:51:17.560 I'd say that
00:51:18.020 would be fine.
00:51:22.300 Clitorectomy,
00:51:22.920 somebody says.
00:51:23.720 Would I support
00:51:25.040 a clitorectomy?
00:51:27.400 Excellent question.
00:51:28.760 Because that will
00:51:29.360 test my consistency.
00:51:31.320 Nicely done.
00:51:32.300 Nicely done.
00:51:33.320 I'd give you an
00:51:34.080 A-plus for that.
00:51:35.400 I would not.
00:51:36.180 I would not be
00:51:37.960 in favor of
00:51:38.740 parents being
00:51:39.320 able to decide
00:51:40.320 that for their
00:51:40.840 kids.
00:51:41.920 So, good example.
00:51:43.080 Good example.
00:51:46.200 But I don't
00:51:46.940 think the
00:51:47.880 analogy is
00:51:48.960 equivalent.
00:51:51.660 See, this is
00:51:52.480 a problem with
00:51:53.120 analogies.
00:51:54.960 Could we agree
00:51:55.980 that nobody is
00:51:56.920 better off with
00:51:57.620 a clitorectomy?
00:51:59.760 Everybody on the
00:52:00.480 same page?
00:52:01.200 There's no such
00:52:02.140 thing as somebody
00:52:03.020 who says,
00:52:03.360 well, I'm glad
00:52:03.820 I got that.
00:52:04.920 Right?
00:52:05.080 So, in that
00:52:06.360 case, there's
00:52:07.440 not much
00:52:07.820 dispute, at
00:52:08.880 least within
00:52:09.340 our culture.
00:52:10.380 Right?
00:52:10.520 Within our
00:52:11.020 culture, there's
00:52:11.600 no dispute.
00:52:12.940 But the
00:52:13.880 trans situation,
00:52:15.980 the driving
00:52:17.220 force of it,
00:52:18.780 is that
00:52:19.220 sometimes, or
00:52:20.800 even most of
00:52:21.440 the time, how
00:52:21.980 would I know,
00:52:23.120 they're right.
00:52:25.240 Right?
00:52:25.820 Would you
00:52:26.620 prevent
00:52:28.340 five people
00:52:31.040 from making
00:52:31.500 a right decision
00:52:32.220 if it allowed
00:52:33.060 five completely
00:52:34.080 different people,
00:52:35.660 it could sort
00:52:36.180 of con them
00:52:36.980 into making
00:52:37.440 the wrong
00:52:37.840 decision?
00:52:39.080 Which is
00:52:39.700 better?
00:52:40.880 Where is your
00:52:41.720 sense of
00:52:42.840 freedom land?
00:52:45.360 You could take
00:52:46.160 it out of the
00:52:46.560 trans, just take
00:52:47.300 it into a
00:52:47.780 general situation.
00:52:48.920 A general
00:52:49.380 situation.
00:52:50.460 If you knew
00:52:51.040 that a law or
00:52:51.860 set of laws
00:52:52.400 would allow
00:52:53.240 five people to
00:52:54.080 be way better
00:52:54.840 off, but you
00:52:56.200 were pretty sure
00:52:57.140 that five other
00:52:58.600 people would be
00:52:59.340 worse off because
00:53:00.460 they would be
00:53:00.900 influenced in
00:53:02.540 the wrong way
00:53:03.260 by the five
00:53:04.280 who got it
00:53:04.720 right.
00:53:06.180 Should that be
00:53:06.940 illegal?
00:53:08.520 Because you're
00:53:09.200 really talking
00:53:09.720 about people
00:53:13.100 being influenced
00:53:13.980 and I don't
00:53:15.680 know how you
00:53:16.020 regulate that.
00:53:18.880 It's not about
00:53:19.780 trans, it's
00:53:20.460 about minors.
00:53:21.620 Correct.
00:53:22.120 That is correct.
00:53:23.700 Yes.
00:53:24.240 When you're
00:53:24.640 talking about
00:53:25.040 the five-year-olds,
00:53:26.940 it's barely
00:53:27.820 about trans.
00:53:30.460 I'm totally
00:53:31.740 with you.
00:53:32.140 That's primarily
00:53:33.240 a question of
00:53:34.200 children and
00:53:35.640 then, you
00:53:36.820 know, that's
00:53:37.160 the canvas and
00:53:37.860 then the paint
00:53:38.320 on it is the
00:53:39.420 trans topic,
00:53:40.480 yes.
00:53:42.480 Control versus
00:53:43.280 brainwashing.
00:53:44.020 I don't like to
00:53:44.820 use those words.
00:53:47.600 M. Ball says
00:53:48.320 you're not very
00:53:48.900 good with logic,
00:53:49.880 Scott.
00:53:50.400 Not very good
00:53:50.980 with logic.
00:53:52.160 Well, M. Ball,
00:53:54.200 and your last
00:53:55.900 name is Ball,
00:53:56.680 could indicate
00:54:00.840 you're nuts,
00:54:01.920 possibly.
00:54:02.920 But what would
00:54:03.640 be an example
00:54:04.140 of that, of
00:54:05.260 which I'm not
00:54:05.840 good at logic?
00:54:08.020 Hmm?
00:54:08.440 Hmm?
00:54:09.080 Huh?
00:54:10.000 Huh?
00:54:12.600 Somebody's
00:54:13.160 saying that
00:54:13.580 Jordan Peterson
00:54:14.360 is a psychologist,
00:54:17.320 so his opinion
00:54:18.800 on the trans
00:54:19.600 situation should
00:54:20.600 hold a little
00:54:21.240 bit more
00:54:21.620 weight, maybe.
00:54:22.640 And I would
00:54:24.200 agree with that.
00:54:25.100 I would agree
00:54:25.640 he would know
00:54:26.120 more about it.
00:54:27.160 But it really
00:54:27.740 comes down to
00:54:28.420 can you let
00:54:29.060 people make
00:54:29.640 catastrophic
00:54:30.340 mistakes if
00:54:31.240 you know
00:54:31.680 it's a mistake?
00:54:33.100 Let me give
00:54:33.760 you an example.
00:54:35.960 Recently,
00:54:37.220 somebody I
00:54:37.820 know, a
00:54:38.760 young woman,
00:54:40.520 moved in with
00:54:41.300 her boyfriend
00:54:41.700 and got a
00:54:42.300 dog.
00:54:44.200 What do you
00:54:44.780 think of that?
00:54:45.900 Somebody very
00:54:46.600 young, very
00:54:48.220 young, but
00:54:49.440 legal age,
00:54:50.300 but very young,
00:54:51.460 moved in with
00:54:52.300 a boyfriend
00:54:52.720 and the two
00:54:54.160 of them got
00:54:54.540 a dog together.
00:54:56.900 Now, you
00:54:57.480 give them
00:54:57.840 advice.
00:54:59.480 Do you think
00:55:00.140 they should have
00:55:00.580 been able to
00:55:01.020 make that
00:55:01.340 decision?
00:55:03.140 In my
00:55:03.780 opinion, that
00:55:05.440 decision largely
00:55:06.600 will ruin their
00:55:07.320 lives.
00:55:08.980 Now, am I
00:55:09.500 right?
00:55:10.220 I don't know.
00:55:11.240 I don't know.
00:55:11.800 I've just seen
00:55:12.340 the pattern
00:55:12.740 before.
00:55:14.440 Young woman
00:55:15.200 gets a dog
00:55:16.180 with boyfriend
00:55:16.780 and moves in
00:55:17.440 together.
00:55:18.100 You're just
00:55:18.660 guaranteed a
00:55:19.520 disaster there,
00:55:20.360 right?
00:55:20.880 So should they
00:55:21.560 be allowed to
00:55:22.180 do that?
00:55:23.980 Should you
00:55:24.580 be allowed
00:55:25.120 to do that
00:55:26.400 when you
00:55:26.820 know it's
00:55:27.360 going to
00:55:28.120 completely
00:55:28.940 destroy your
00:55:29.820 options for
00:55:30.500 careers,
00:55:31.760 future
00:55:32.220 relationships,
00:55:33.500 you know
00:55:33.920 there's going
00:55:34.280 to be a
00:55:34.500 problem when
00:55:34.940 you break
00:55:35.320 up, because
00:55:35.660 you probably
00:55:36.060 are, who
00:55:36.940 gets the
00:55:37.320 dog?
00:55:38.540 It's going
00:55:39.180 to be a
00:55:39.560 disaster,
00:55:40.340 right?
00:55:41.880 Now, that's
00:55:42.740 just my
00:55:43.120 opinion.
00:55:44.680 Am I
00:55:45.280 right?
00:55:46.740 How would
00:55:47.320 I know?
00:55:48.520 How would
00:55:49.100 I know?
00:55:49.460 I just
00:55:50.440 have an
00:55:50.780 opinion.
00:55:51.720 So should
00:55:52.220 my opinion,
00:55:53.720 let's say a
00:55:54.580 lot of you
00:55:54.880 have the
00:55:55.120 same opinion,
00:55:55.920 should our
00:55:56.300 opinion stop
00:55:57.300 that young
00:55:57.760 woman from
00:55:58.320 getting a
00:55:58.760 dog, knowing
00:56:00.720 it's a
00:56:01.220 terrible,
00:56:02.060 terrible idea?
00:56:03.860 Absolutely not.
00:56:05.340 No.
00:56:05.860 No, my
00:56:06.280 opinion and
00:56:06.920 the law should
00:56:07.620 have nothing
00:56:08.080 to say about
00:56:08.720 that.
00:56:09.460 We should be
00:56:09.980 completely
00:56:10.440 silent, and
00:56:11.800 the person
00:56:12.980 involved should
00:56:13.800 make the worst
00:56:14.440 decision in the
00:56:15.140 world and just
00:56:15.880 figure it out.
00:56:17.340 because
00:56:18.000 unfortunately,
00:56:18.800 you can't
00:56:19.440 have any
00:56:19.840 kind of a
00:56:20.600 system that
00:56:22.720 says that
00:56:23.200 other people
00:56:23.840 get to decide
00:56:24.660 what your
00:56:25.000 decisions are
00:56:25.760 because they're
00:56:26.320 better than
00:56:26.760 you at making
00:56:27.860 them, and
00:56:28.820 that's what
00:56:29.280 we're looking
00:56:29.660 at.
00:56:30.700 We're basically
00:56:31.520 saying other
00:56:32.220 people can make
00:56:32.980 your decisions
00:56:33.580 better than you
00:56:34.200 can, so that's
00:56:35.240 why it should
00:56:35.600 be a law,
00:56:36.180 because you're
00:56:36.480 bad at making
00:56:36.960 decisions.
00:56:38.500 It's true.
00:56:39.940 People are
00:56:40.420 bad at making
00:56:40.940 decisions.
00:56:41.860 It's true that
00:56:43.400 if you had some
00:56:43.940 kind of a
00:56:44.340 system where
00:56:44.960 dumb people
00:56:46.100 couldn't make
00:56:46.580 decisions,
00:56:47.340 and by the
00:56:48.180 way, we're
00:56:48.440 not talking
00:56:48.800 about dumb
00:56:49.220 people in
00:56:49.720 this context.
00:56:51.320 None of the
00:56:51.860 people involved
00:56:52.420 are dumb,
00:56:53.240 which is the
00:56:55.320 interesting part.
00:56:56.340 None of the
00:56:56.800 people are
00:56:57.100 dumb.
00:56:58.500 Whatever is
00:56:59.260 going on
00:56:59.900 doesn't seem
00:57:00.920 to be related
00:57:01.520 to logic or
00:57:02.560 brain power,
00:57:04.680 whatever it
00:57:05.260 is.
00:57:08.340 All right.
00:57:09.920 That is your
00:57:10.700 opinion.
00:57:12.800 Reframe as a
00:57:13.620 mental health
00:57:14.200 issue.
00:57:14.540 That's a
00:57:18.140 definition
00:57:18.500 problem, and
00:57:19.760 I'm not
00:57:20.160 going to go
00:57:20.480 there.
00:57:20.840 I'm being
00:57:21.420 asked,
00:57:22.200 suggested,
00:57:23.280 that I
00:57:24.080 should look
00:57:24.440 at the
00:57:24.920 trans issue,
00:57:26.780 especially for
00:57:27.300 the super
00:57:27.740 young kids,
00:57:28.380 as a mental
00:57:29.060 health issue.
00:57:29.920 I'm not going
00:57:30.440 to go there.
00:57:31.480 The reason
00:57:31.900 is that
00:57:32.560 defining mental
00:57:34.480 health is
00:57:36.460 really murky,
00:57:37.180 because the
00:57:40.380 perfect example
00:57:41.140 would be the
00:57:43.760 type of
00:57:44.160 narcissist who
00:57:44.940 just likes to
00:57:45.560 get credit for
00:57:46.280 doing good
00:57:46.760 work.
00:57:47.900 Is that a
00:57:48.620 mental illness?
00:57:50.280 Because the
00:57:50.900 person who's
00:57:51.320 doing it isn't
00:57:51.860 having any
00:57:52.280 problem at all.
00:57:53.560 They're doing
00:57:53.960 good work,
00:57:54.560 they're getting
00:57:54.880 credit for it,
00:57:55.560 everybody's happy.
00:57:57.060 So it's just a
00:57:57.640 definition.
00:57:58.780 So if you say
00:58:00.580 it's a mental
00:58:01.280 illness to
00:58:02.760 think you're the
00:58:03.520 wrong gender,
00:58:04.160 gender, I
00:58:06.560 say, well,
00:58:07.560 we're in
00:58:07.860 pretty sketchy
00:58:10.120 territory, if
00:58:11.000 you can tell me
00:58:11.680 what my mental
00:58:12.380 illness is, and
00:58:13.200 you're not an
00:58:13.740 expert, and by
00:58:14.860 the way, it
00:58:15.800 doesn't seem to
00:58:16.440 be hurting me,
00:58:18.280 it might even
00:58:19.480 help me.
00:58:20.580 So is it a
00:58:21.260 mental illness
00:58:21.840 if it helps
00:58:22.360 you?
00:58:23.400 What would
00:58:24.020 you make of
00:58:24.460 the people who
00:58:25.040 transition, and
00:58:26.560 then their
00:58:26.920 whole life,
00:58:27.500 they're glad
00:58:27.880 they did?
00:58:29.160 Do they have
00:58:29.680 a mental
00:58:29.960 problem?
00:58:31.760 Actually, let
00:58:32.360 me ask this
00:58:32.740 question.
00:58:34.160 Because I'm
00:58:34.600 not sure how
00:58:35.040 you would
00:58:35.300 answer.
00:58:36.700 So take the
00:58:37.320 example of
00:58:37.800 somebody who
00:58:38.220 transitions at
00:58:39.100 five, against
00:58:40.920 your better
00:58:41.620 advice, but
00:58:42.480 let's say it
00:58:42.800 happens, and
00:58:44.200 they grow up,
00:58:45.240 and they go
00:58:45.560 through their
00:58:45.900 whole life after
00:58:47.120 transitioning, and
00:58:48.580 every time they
00:58:49.320 talk about it or
00:58:50.040 think about it,
00:58:50.600 they say, you
00:58:51.020 know, pretty
00:58:52.120 glad I did it.
00:58:53.580 Does that
00:58:54.000 person have a
00:58:54.780 mental illness,
00:58:55.580 in your opinion?
00:58:57.620 Or did they
00:58:58.320 have a medical
00:58:59.020 problem that they
00:58:59.780 solved perfectly?
00:59:02.080 What's your
00:59:02.600 opinion?
00:59:02.820 some people
00:59:03.900 say yes.
00:59:06.060 So your
00:59:07.340 definition of a
00:59:08.180 mental problem
00:59:08.860 would include
00:59:10.820 people who
00:59:12.080 improve their
00:59:12.680 lives, would
00:59:14.440 it?
00:59:15.400 So in your
00:59:16.920 view of the
00:59:17.360 world, there
00:59:17.780 could be such
00:59:18.320 a thing as a
00:59:19.780 mental problem
00:59:20.460 that just makes
00:59:21.000 you better off,
00:59:22.420 and it would
00:59:22.800 still be called
00:59:23.320 a mental
00:59:23.800 problem.
00:59:25.140 Is that
00:59:25.400 definitionally,
00:59:26.380 you'd be
00:59:26.640 comfortable with
00:59:27.180 that?
00:59:27.340 So this is
00:59:29.560 where words
00:59:30.120 become a
00:59:30.540 problem.
00:59:33.540 You know
00:59:34.040 what else I've
00:59:34.560 decided?
00:59:36.200 That there are
00:59:36.900 a whole bunch
00:59:37.300 of things,
00:59:39.980 this is sort
00:59:40.600 of current
00:59:40.980 thinking, so
00:59:41.600 this might come
00:59:42.120 out not
00:59:43.600 coherent, but
00:59:45.200 I've decided that
00:59:45.940 maybe what I
00:59:46.540 most want is to
00:59:47.600 be an unlabeled
00:59:49.380 adult.
00:59:51.700 If I could have
00:59:52.540 one thing that
00:59:53.740 would make me
00:59:54.160 feel free, it's
00:59:55.460 to be an
00:59:56.180 unlabeled adult.
00:59:57.620 Here's why.
00:59:59.100 If you call me a
01:00:00.240 Democrat or
01:00:00.800 Republican, then I
01:00:01.880 feel like I have
01:00:02.440 to act a certain
01:00:03.060 way or defend a
01:00:04.000 certain thing, so I
01:00:05.180 don't.
01:00:05.980 I'm neither a
01:00:06.660 Democrat nor a
01:00:07.320 Republican, and I
01:00:08.620 don't even vote, so
01:00:10.160 I don't want to be
01:00:10.760 labeled.
01:00:12.560 Likewise, I make
01:00:13.660 sure that it's hard
01:00:14.400 for you to know if I
01:00:15.240 lean right or left,
01:00:16.800 because I seem to
01:00:17.960 go either way,
01:00:18.600 depending on the
01:00:19.160 topic.
01:00:20.120 And I like that.
01:00:21.220 I want to be
01:00:21.640 unlabeled as left
01:00:22.580 or right.
01:00:23.340 But I'm taking it
01:00:24.280 further.
01:00:25.560 I think I would
01:00:26.320 want to be
01:00:26.760 unlabeled as
01:00:27.960 married, boyfriend,
01:00:31.800 engaged, single, or
01:00:33.560 any of the other
01:00:34.280 categories.
01:00:36.040 Why do I have to
01:00:36.820 be labeled?
01:00:39.260 Because the
01:00:39.820 moment you put a
01:00:40.480 label on any of
01:00:41.240 those things, you
01:00:41.760 have to conform to
01:00:42.680 the label, right?
01:00:44.440 As soon as you say
01:00:45.340 you're married, well,
01:00:46.520 you've got to do
01:00:46.880 what married people
01:00:47.500 do.
01:00:47.840 That's the whole
01:00:48.800 deal.
01:00:49.040 As soon as you say
01:00:50.580 you're anything,
01:00:51.680 then you've got to
01:00:52.240 do what that category
01:00:53.300 does.
01:00:53.720 But what if you
01:00:54.780 just say, I'm
01:00:56.120 unlabeled?
01:00:58.220 Every single
01:00:59.020 situation, I can
01:01:00.040 just do what makes
01:01:01.580 sense to me in that
01:01:02.440 situation.
01:01:03.380 And I will never
01:01:04.300 have to conform to
01:01:05.320 what my label is.
01:01:06.980 And if you just
01:01:07.780 told everybody that,
01:01:08.580 say, well, you
01:01:09.480 should have done,
01:01:10.140 well, why?
01:01:11.320 Why should I have
01:01:11.980 done that?
01:01:12.820 Why can't I just
01:01:13.520 look at every
01:01:14.000 situation individually
01:01:15.000 and do what I
01:01:15.580 want?
01:01:16.220 Why can't I be an
01:01:17.220 unlabeled adult?
01:01:18.400 So that's my goal,
01:01:21.700 to be unlabeled.
01:01:29.400 Yes, good point.
01:01:30.800 Over on the
01:01:31.320 Locals platform, I'm
01:01:33.360 being asked, what
01:01:34.200 happened to the
01:01:34.920 grain shortage because
01:01:36.120 of the Ukraine war?
01:01:37.740 It got really quiet,
01:01:38.900 didn't it?
01:01:39.840 We have been told
01:01:41.020 that there is a
01:01:42.280 looming global
01:01:43.980 famine coming.
01:01:44.940 Is there a
01:01:48.300 conspiracy to not
01:01:49.520 talk about it so
01:01:50.420 we don't hoard?
01:01:52.020 Or has it already
01:01:53.120 been solved?
01:01:54.540 Because what I
01:01:55.380 expected to happen
01:01:56.340 was that given
01:01:57.980 that we see the
01:01:59.440 famine coming six
01:02:01.660 months in advance,
01:02:02.520 right, can't you
01:02:04.380 grow an entire crop
01:02:05.380 in six months?
01:02:06.760 Am I wrong about
01:02:07.520 that?
01:02:09.040 Are there not
01:02:10.200 available lands and
01:02:12.540 facilities that would
01:02:14.100 not be economically
01:02:14.920 under normal times,
01:02:16.680 but suddenly everybody
01:02:18.300 who has an extra
01:02:19.140 acre says, shit, I
01:02:20.220 can sell anything I
01:02:21.000 grow on this.
01:02:21.760 There's going to be a
01:02:22.300 famine.
01:02:23.160 I wonder if the
01:02:24.100 market already
01:02:24.800 adjusted.
01:02:26.020 Somebody says no
01:02:26.780 fertilizer available,
01:02:28.060 but that has to do
01:02:28.840 with the size and
01:02:29.920 yield.
01:02:31.480 And again, if you
01:02:32.400 simply grew more,
01:02:35.320 you grew indoors for
01:02:36.500 an example, you
01:02:39.340 could compensate for
01:02:40.160 some, but not all of
01:02:41.220 the fertilizer loss.
01:02:43.080 So here's the
01:02:43.620 question.
01:02:43.920 There are one of two
01:02:45.320 things that are
01:02:45.860 happening here, maybe
01:02:47.060 three.
01:02:48.040 One thing that's
01:02:48.880 happening could be
01:02:50.280 that it's getting
01:02:50.860 solved and you
01:02:52.600 might not notice it.
01:02:54.500 The other possibility
01:02:55.680 is that we're going to
01:02:56.560 lose a hundred million
01:02:57.780 poor people to
01:02:59.200 starvation.
01:02:59.980 We didn't need to
01:03:00.980 starve in other
01:03:01.720 circumstances.
01:03:03.020 And that there's
01:03:03.820 nothing we can do
01:03:04.500 about it.
01:03:05.480 So we're just not
01:03:06.140 talking about it
01:03:06.820 because we're not
01:03:07.940 part of the hundred
01:03:08.500 million.
01:03:08.840 you know, I've
01:03:12.400 had the worst
01:03:13.320 selfish thoughts
01:03:15.280 about this global
01:03:16.300 famine conversation
01:03:17.720 and it goes like
01:03:19.180 this.
01:03:20.200 It won't affect me
01:03:21.380 because I'm rich.
01:03:23.480 Does that make you
01:03:24.360 want to, like,
01:03:25.020 kill me?
01:03:26.180 It makes me want to
01:03:26.860 kill myself.
01:03:28.180 It's an ugly
01:03:28.980 thought, but it's
01:03:30.380 also true.
01:03:31.940 And I'm going to
01:03:32.720 pile on.
01:03:33.300 I'm going to make it
01:03:33.760 worse.
01:03:35.040 By weird
01:03:35.780 coincidence, I live
01:03:37.220 in the town that's
01:03:38.060 the headquarters for
01:03:39.700 the biggest supermarket
01:03:40.740 for this part of the
01:03:42.300 country, Safeway.
01:03:43.920 Do you think that the
01:03:45.460 people who own and
01:03:46.900 run Safeway are
01:03:48.260 going to let their
01:03:48.880 own local grocery
01:03:49.860 store be the one
01:03:50.540 that doesn't have
01:03:51.060 product?
01:03:52.340 No, I will be the
01:03:53.340 last grocery store on
01:03:54.680 the fucking planet
01:03:55.580 that still has stuff
01:03:56.620 in it because the
01:03:57.860 people who work at
01:03:59.360 the grocery, the
01:04:00.020 ones who run the
01:04:00.780 grocery store, you
01:04:02.000 know, the CEOs and
01:04:02.800 stuff, they live in
01:04:03.420 my town.
01:04:04.100 They're not going
01:04:04.760 to run out of
01:04:05.160 food in their
01:04:05.560 town.
01:04:06.800 They're not going
01:04:07.440 to let their own
01:04:07.920 family starve.
01:04:09.620 So at least I think
01:04:11.180 I'll have food.
01:04:12.520 But I keep thinking
01:04:14.380 that there's something
01:04:16.020 that's going to
01:04:16.660 activate me to make
01:04:18.600 me think I need to
01:04:19.360 talk more about this
01:04:20.300 or do something or
01:04:21.360 be productive or
01:04:22.460 help or advise you
01:04:24.640 to stock up or
01:04:25.400 something.
01:04:26.260 But there's nothing
01:04:27.220 activating me.
01:04:29.040 And to the point
01:04:30.100 from the locals
01:04:31.200 platform, why not?
01:04:34.100 Where did this
01:04:35.220 story go?
01:04:37.040 Was it always true
01:04:38.180 that we could have
01:04:38.820 expanded the global
01:04:40.440 food supply, just
01:04:41.400 maybe not with the
01:04:42.180 exact same foods,
01:04:43.880 just a different mix
01:04:44.720 of foods?
01:04:45.300 Was it always there?
01:04:46.220 We just always could
01:04:47.040 have done it and we
01:04:47.620 just didn't have to?
01:04:48.400 And now we are.
01:04:49.940 Is that what's
01:04:50.360 happening?
01:04:51.580 Who knows?
01:04:54.880 Food will not make
01:04:55.800 it to your area if it
01:04:56.720 got bad.
01:04:57.220 That's true.
01:04:57.560 California at least
01:04:58.900 makes a good amount
01:05:00.600 of food, depending
01:05:02.200 on the season.
01:05:06.000 Aren't we risking
01:05:06.980 nuclear war with
01:05:07.940 Russia?
01:05:08.300 It doesn't look like
01:05:08.980 it.
01:05:09.620 The reason that we're
01:05:10.740 not risking nuclear war
01:05:12.040 with Russia at the
01:05:12.820 moment is, why are we
01:05:15.380 not risking nuclear war
01:05:16.680 with Russia?
01:05:18.240 Because they're
01:05:18.940 winning.
01:05:20.700 They're winning.
01:05:22.100 The winning side
01:05:23.280 doesn't really need to
01:05:24.500 unleash the nuke.
01:05:25.900 that wouldn't turn
01:05:26.600 out well.
01:05:28.360 So, as long as
01:05:30.180 Putin thinks he's
01:05:30.840 winning, I'm not
01:05:32.280 really too worried
01:05:33.180 about the nukes.
01:05:35.080 Now, it appears
01:05:38.520 we've reached the
01:05:39.660 Afghanistan phase of
01:05:41.140 the Ukraine war,
01:05:42.440 where we got
01:05:43.340 ourselves into
01:05:43.960 something we can't
01:05:44.780 get out of, and
01:05:45.980 it's looking like
01:05:47.220 it's a 20-year war.
01:05:49.660 And it's going to
01:05:50.520 be trillions of
01:05:51.260 dollars.
01:05:53.160 And we were so
01:05:54.580 dumb.
01:05:55.900 That we walked
01:05:56.720 right into it
01:05:57.340 again.
01:05:58.140 Now, you could
01:05:59.780 say, but at least
01:06:00.700 we saved Ukraine.
01:06:02.640 Did we?
01:06:04.820 Did we?
01:06:06.800 Did we save
01:06:07.640 Ukraine?
01:06:08.560 Because to me, it
01:06:09.320 looks like it's
01:06:09.800 destroyed.
01:06:10.780 And that it will be
01:06:12.600 that way for a long
01:06:13.420 time.
01:06:14.680 So, I don't think we
01:06:16.000 saved Ukraine.
01:06:17.720 But maybe we, you
01:06:19.780 know, we showed
01:06:20.480 Putin a lesson and
01:06:21.480 bolstered NATO.
01:06:22.840 NATO, did we?
01:06:25.180 Is NATO a better
01:06:27.180 fighting force because
01:06:28.500 we've got Sweden in
01:06:30.100 there?
01:06:31.280 Thank goodness.
01:06:33.280 We didn't know if
01:06:34.660 we could push Russia
01:06:36.000 back, but now Sweden's
01:06:37.960 in the fight.
01:06:38.780 Did we gain anything?
01:06:40.220 Anything?
01:06:41.560 I don't know.
01:06:42.460 I don't think we
01:06:42.940 gained anything, did
01:06:43.660 we?
01:06:43.800 But we felt like we
01:06:46.460 were on the moral
01:06:47.360 side of things.
01:06:49.380 Now, if what we
01:06:51.160 did, Ukraine war
01:06:55.020 pushes Somalia
01:06:55.860 toward famine.
01:06:56.980 Yeah, the
01:06:57.260 Washington Post
01:06:57.780 had that story.
01:06:59.260 But pushes toward
01:07:01.540 is still not, you
01:07:04.360 know, reached there.
01:07:05.720 I mean, I don't
01:07:06.220 doubt there will be
01:07:06.800 some places that
01:07:07.740 will have severe
01:07:08.960 problems.
01:07:10.660 But there's
01:07:12.360 something going on
01:07:13.100 that the news is
01:07:13.760 not telling us,
01:07:14.760 which is, did we
01:07:15.600 solve the problem
01:07:16.360 or just what the
01:07:17.480 hell is going on?
01:07:21.280 Psychologically, we
01:07:22.020 gained.
01:07:22.460 Do you think we
01:07:22.940 gained psychologically?
01:07:27.120 All right.
01:07:28.980 Yeah, what
01:07:29.540 happened to Al-Qaeda?
01:07:30.440 There's another
01:07:30.840 question.
01:07:31.680 What happened to
01:07:32.220 Al-Qaeda?
01:07:32.620 I guess they
01:07:37.020 weren't the
01:07:37.520 perpetual force,
01:07:39.120 we thought.
01:07:40.240 All right.
01:07:41.460 That's about all
01:07:42.160 I've got for now.
01:07:44.460 And I'm going to
01:07:46.880 say goodbye to the
01:07:47.640 YouTubers.
01:07:48.720 Have a great
01:07:49.140 weekend.
01:07:50.600 Bye for now.
01:07:51.320 Bye.
01:07:52.500 Bye.
01:07:53.240 Bye.
01:08:07.940 Bye.
01:08:08.100 Bye.
01:08:10.140 Bye.
