Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1817 Scott Adams： It's Time For President Harris To Take Over For Decomposing Joe Biden

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization.

00:00:08.220 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and aren't you glad you're here?

00:00:11.620 You know, we could call it Coffee with whatever your name is,

00:00:16.060 but that wouldn't work nearly as well.

00:00:19.860 Maybe we should do that sometime.

00:00:21.680 I'm going to pick a popular name.

00:00:24.220 Let's see.

00:00:24.660 There are probably lots of people out there named Dorothy.

00:00:30.480 So it's Coffee with Dorothy today.

00:00:32.300 Dorothy, it's your day.

00:00:34.220 And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or chelsea,

00:00:37.200 a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:40.300 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:41.640 I like coffee.

00:00:43.520 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day,

00:00:49.040 the thing that could even animate Joe Biden.

00:00:51.500 It's called Coffee, and it happens now.

00:00:54.800 Go.

00:00:59.000 Ah.

00:01:00.000 Ah, yeah, that's good.

00:01:02.120 That's good.

00:01:04.480 Well, let's start with our first little bit of gaslighting.

00:01:12.160 And this comes to you courtesy of CNN.

00:01:14.680 Now, I made the mistake of looking at the CNN website

00:01:18.660 and clicking on one of their links.

00:01:22.120 Here's what I found.

00:01:23.300 On the front page, this is what the link says, all right?

00:01:29.080 So the link says, CNN poll.

00:01:36.460 A majority of GOP voters don't want Trump to be the nominee in 2024.

00:01:42.480 So that's what the link says.

00:01:44.320 The link says most Republicans don't want Trump to run.

00:01:48.540 So if you clicked on that link, what would you imagine the story would be?

00:01:54.200 Do you think the story would be something about the Republicans don't want Trump to run?

00:02:01.120 Right?

00:02:01.560 All right, here's what the title of the piece is after you click the link.

00:02:07.120 So the link, again, says Republicans don't want Trump to run.

00:02:12.260 Click the link, and here's the headline.

00:02:14.060 I swear to God, I'm just reading this off of CNN's own site, all right?

00:02:18.560 I'll click the link.

00:02:20.500 All right, Republicans don't want Trump to be the nominee.

00:02:23.280 And then the story is, by Kate Sullivan, CNN poll, 75% of Democratic voters want someone other than Biden in 2024.

00:02:38.440 54% of Republicans didn't want Trump running.

00:02:41.620 75% of Democrats don't want Biden running.

00:02:47.380 The title to the piece is about Trump.

00:02:52.040 The headline of their actual story.

00:02:54.380 This is CNN's own story.

00:02:55.800 They're not linking outside their site.

00:02:57.800 This is all within CNN right now.

00:03:01.300 You could go look at this yourself.

00:03:03.720 The story is the opposite of the title.

00:03:06.400 The title tells you there's something wrong with Trump.

00:03:08.540 The story is about something wrong with Biden.

00:03:12.940 Have you ever seen something that direct?

00:03:17.000 Isn't it just a link error?

00:03:18.820 Nope.

00:03:19.600 It's not a link error because the story does include the fact that the GOP, 54% of them don't want Trump.

00:03:27.160 But it's a buried context within the larger story.

00:03:30.640 The larger story is people don't want Biden.

00:03:36.420 I mean, how much of the general public, let's say the CNN viewers, how many of them would even notice this?

00:03:45.080 Do you think they would even notice?

00:03:46.180 Or would they just read the headlines and say, wow, Trump is unpopular in his own party?

00:03:53.540 And would they just move on?

00:03:55.900 It's amazing that they could do this right in front of you.

00:04:00.420 Right in front of you.

00:04:02.100 And, you know, shamelessly.

00:04:04.960 Are you worried about robots taking your jobs?

00:04:08.880 Do you think robots will put us all in at work in the future?

00:04:11.780 Well, let me give you some context here.

00:04:17.860 It's happened once before.

00:04:21.700 Robots already took all of our jobs once.

00:04:25.200 Well, I'm extending the definition of robot to, let's say, a farm tractor and industrial farming,

00:04:34.180 which is, you know, a lot of machines involved.

00:04:36.340 So, as I saw a tweet from Evil Gnome 6 on Twitter.

00:04:44.240 And Evil Gnome 6 reminds us that before the Industrial Revolution, 80% of humans were working agriculture.

00:04:52.760 And now it's 1%.

00:04:53.800 So we went from 80% of the people having a certain kind of job,

00:04:59.020 and then, you know, machines and tractors and everything made that unnecessary.

00:05:02.460 And we basically removed 80% of all the employment on Earth.

00:05:08.760 It didn't make any difference.

00:05:10.740 We were fine.

00:05:11.960 We just found other things to do.

00:05:14.660 Now, do you remember, if you're a certain age,

00:05:18.440 you might remember that there were predictions that television,

00:05:23.680 you know, the invention of television, would make the radio go away.

00:05:27.760 Because, you know, who's going to want to listen when you can listen and watch?

00:05:33.100 But what happened?

00:05:34.640 Well, nobody saw Rush Limbaugh coming.

00:05:37.120 And suddenly, talk radio makes sense.

00:05:39.960 Suddenly, if you're driving and you're caught in traffic,

00:05:42.540 oh, yeah, it turns out that traffic is getting worse and worse.

00:05:45.460 So we spend more and more time in our cars.

00:05:48.140 So radio is more important.

00:05:50.740 So predicting that TV would kill radio, that didn't work out.

00:05:55.000 How about, do you remember when everybody said

00:05:58.720 the computers would make us a paperless office?

00:06:02.120 So when you went to work, you'd have your computer, but no paper.

00:06:07.660 It wouldn't need any paper.

00:06:09.740 Yeah, let me show you my paperless office here.

00:06:13.480 Here's my paperless office.

00:06:15.800 The paper's all over it.

00:06:17.820 Papers, papers.

00:06:19.300 Yep, it's 2022.

00:06:20.580 Do you know what's the best way to handle some things?

00:06:25.880 Paper.

00:06:29.480 Do you know why I printed out my notes on paper?

00:06:32.580 Because it works better.

00:06:34.380 It works better.

00:06:36.520 Basically, we are terrible at predicting what's going to happen

00:06:40.380 with these large societal things.

00:06:42.600 So, and also, keep in mind that if robots take our jobs,

00:06:49.440 they also might make the cost of living drop like crazy.

00:06:55.820 So we can see the cost of energy approaching zero with fusion someday.

00:07:02.520 We can see the cost of labor approaching zero,

00:07:06.320 because, you know, machines will do it all.

00:07:07.840 So, maybe you don't have the same access to the same job

00:07:13.540 you could have had before, but would you care?

00:07:17.300 What if everything is almost free?

00:07:19.960 Yeah, there's no, let's say there's no delivery costs anymore,

00:07:23.560 because you just 3D print what you want.

00:07:26.060 I mean, you could imagine a world where you could live on $1,000 a year.

00:07:30.680 You could.

00:07:32.440 You could imagine living on $1,000 a year

00:07:34.760 and having everything you want.

00:07:35.840 So, it's not impossible.

00:07:38.780 Who knows what's going to happen,

00:07:39.980 but we're not good at predicting the future.

00:07:43.580 All right, here's some more interesting news.

00:07:45.720 Apparently, Ukraine has blown up one of their own major bridges

00:07:49.020 to keep the Russians from advancing. 0.88

00:07:52.220 And I guess they probably, we don't know for sure,

00:07:54.600 but they probably used one of these HIMARS systems,

00:07:59.060 H-I-M-A-R-S, that the U.S. provided. 0.93

00:08:03.600 So, these are long-range, you know, accurate missiles.

00:08:07.000 Looks like they took out that bridge.

00:08:09.080 But here is a question I ask you.

00:08:12.340 Have we reached a point in which nobody's ever going to be able

00:08:17.720 to move big equipment into another country,

00:08:20.720 as long as that country that's being attacked

00:08:22.740 has access to these types of weapons?

00:08:25.020 I don't see how the Russians can advance 1.00

00:08:27.880 if we're providing these accurate missiles.

00:08:32.240 Because it doesn't take too many missiles

00:08:34.020 to disrupt a supply chain, does it?

00:08:38.560 Failed to blow it up in the initial invasion, yeah.

00:08:41.080 Well, anyway, Ukraine is saying that they've got only,

00:08:52.840 you know, a few of these HIMARS systems.

00:08:55.280 They need at least 50 of them to hold back the Russian forces

00:08:58.660 and at least 100 of them for an effective counter-offensive.

00:09:02.980 Do we want Ukraine to have an effective counter-offensive? 0.87

00:09:06.400 Is that even good for anybody?

00:09:10.960 I don't know if it's good for anybody, actually.

00:09:13.920 Like, literally, anybody.

00:09:15.840 You know, there might be some people

00:09:17.160 who prefer to be Ukrainian instead of Russian.

00:09:19.840 I'm sure that's a thing, and vice versa.

00:09:22.500 But for the world in general,

00:09:24.240 I don't know if we want Ukraine to beat Russia.

00:09:27.220 Do we?

00:09:28.220 Or do we just want to stand off

00:09:30.060 so maybe they'll stop fighting?

00:09:32.820 I feel like you want to stand off.

00:09:34.540 I don't feel like you want a victory.

00:09:37.360 I don't know.

00:09:38.140 I'm not sure if anybody's better off

00:09:39.960 if Ukraine gets back that territory.

00:09:42.520 Are you better off?

00:09:45.060 Do you think your life would be a little bit better

00:09:47.480 if Ukraine gets that territory back?

00:09:50.140 I don't know.

00:09:51.600 I don't know.

00:09:53.160 I don't know how it's going to affect anything

00:09:54.880 except the people in that territory.

00:09:58.700 So gas prices continue to drift lower.

00:10:02.800 Here's my question.

00:10:05.100 Why?

00:10:07.020 Does anybody know the answer to that question?

00:10:10.040 Gas is getting cheaper.

00:10:12.960 Why?

00:10:14.740 Why?

00:10:18.140 Inflation?

00:10:18.780 No.

00:10:19.280 Futures?

00:10:20.180 Well, but why are the futures changing?

00:10:22.440 Yeah, obviously it's futures,

00:10:24.020 but why is it changing?

00:10:25.460 Recession?

00:10:26.060 I don't know that people are driving less, are they?

00:10:27.920 It's summer.

00:10:30.540 It should be up.

00:10:31.380 Demand should be through the roof.

00:10:34.680 Are people driving less?

00:10:36.620 I don't notice it.

00:10:38.700 I feel where I am, the roads are just packed.

00:10:41.440 To me, it looks like more traffic than I've ever seen in my life.

00:10:45.940 Like on just a Wednesday in the summer where I live,

00:10:49.320 on an average, just a Wednesday,

00:10:51.960 there's more traffic than I've ever seen any time I've lived here.

00:10:55.120 So is it different where you live?

00:11:00.900 M2, money supply dropped.

00:11:03.400 I don't think we know.

00:11:04.520 I mean, I'm looking at your answers and none of them look persuasive.

00:11:09.760 So, I mean, what it tells me is that the rise in prices was never real

00:11:13.440 in the sense that there was not an economic force, probably.

00:11:16.920 It was probably just the gougers could gouge, so they did.

00:11:22.180 That's all it was, right?

00:11:24.120 Is the only thing we saw price gouging?

00:11:27.600 Because nothing changed, as far as I can tell.

00:11:30.820 Well, why is there not a national story?

00:11:37.280 Something did change, somebody says.

00:11:39.080 Instability?

00:11:41.140 Eh, I don't know.

00:11:43.860 You think instability, things are more stable,

00:11:47.160 and therefore the risk was taken out of the price?

00:11:51.580 I don't know.

00:11:52.640 That doesn't quite track for me.

00:11:56.540 There's a lot of this stuff that's happening in the economy

00:11:59.400 that I don't think we quite have a grasp on what's happening here.

00:12:03.360 I definitely don't understand what gas prices are going down

00:12:06.260 because I'm not aware of anything changing.

00:12:10.980 Here's a question.

00:12:12.000 I saw a claim on Twitter

00:12:15.020 that the oceans have been cooling for a while

00:12:20.000 and that that would be the opposite of what climate change says.

00:12:23.940 How long did it take somebody to debunk that?

00:12:28.580 Oh, about 10 seconds.

00:12:30.840 And do you know how you debunk it?

00:12:32.700 You just change the start point.

00:12:35.180 You just change the start point.

00:12:37.300 If you pick your start point at a certain point,

00:12:39.600 it looks like the temperatures have gone down

00:12:41.880 or are somewhat stable over a long period of time.

00:12:46.680 If you look at it from, let's say, June

00:12:48.800 and then compare June and prior years,

00:12:50.980 it looks like it's way up.

00:12:54.400 Same data.

00:12:56.160 Same database.

00:12:58.280 So the people who have concluded

00:12:59.580 it's clearly getting warmer on the oceans

00:13:02.220 are standing right next to the people

00:13:04.960 who are looking at the same data.

00:13:06.820 Same data.

00:13:08.200 They say, I'm looking right at it.

00:13:09.880 It's going up.

00:13:11.160 No, I'm looking right at it.

00:13:12.500 It's going down.

00:13:13.900 No, I'm standing right with you.

00:13:16.100 We're looking at the same data.

00:13:18.520 It's going up.

00:13:19.840 No, I'm standing right next to you,

00:13:22.900 shoulder to shoulder.

00:13:23.860 Look at it.

00:13:24.380 Same data.

00:13:26.800 Now, if we can't even agree with that,

00:13:29.300 it's one thing to be looking at different data, right?

00:13:33.500 We're looking at the same data,

00:13:35.980 and we can't even figure that out.

00:13:38.240 My God.

00:13:39.800 Doesn't that make you doubt just everything?

00:13:42.960 What could be...

00:13:44.840 It would be one thing if one side

00:13:47.480 was saying the data is inaccurate,

00:13:49.680 which is a separate argument.

00:13:52.360 If you're not saying the data isn't accurate,

00:13:54.640 and you're looking right at it,

00:13:55.800 and you can't tell if the numbers are going up or down,

00:13:58.900 that's pretty basic.

00:14:01.100 Up versus down.

00:14:04.760 That's where we're at.

00:14:05.760 We can't tell the difference literally

00:14:09.260 between up and down,

00:14:12.500 at least in terms of prices or temperatures.

00:14:18.220 All right.

00:14:19.160 Well,

00:14:19.860 here's a story that is kind of weird.

00:14:26.300 You know, here's a major through line

00:14:28.740 in a lot of things,

00:14:29.840 is that the news is all about

00:14:31.200 a different use of a word, right?

00:14:34.480 So when Biden says insurrection,

00:14:37.360 he's just using a word wrong

00:14:38.860 and trying to make something out of nothing

00:14:40.820 by using a word, right?

00:14:45.160 You know,

00:14:45.800 the fine people hoax was about a word.

00:14:48.040 The drinking bleach hoax was about a word.

00:14:52.300 Basically,

00:14:53.740 everything's about what you find.

00:14:55.980 Did Trump want to find votes?

00:14:58.440 So everything's about a word, okay?

00:15:02.120 So your context is

00:15:03.620 that the news is all fake,

00:15:06.380 and the way that they make it fake

00:15:07.900 is by telling you that recession, right?

00:15:10.440 That recession doesn't mean what it used to mean.

00:15:13.040 Somebody tweeted Reuters

00:15:16.060 that I think on the same day

00:15:18.500 or maybe the same week,

00:15:20.440 Reuters defined a recession

00:15:21.860 as two consecutive periods of negative growth.

00:15:25.080 At the same time,

00:15:27.620 Reuters also was reporting,

00:15:30.580 oh, no,

00:15:31.320 you don't simply look at

00:15:32.440 two quarters of negative growth.

00:15:34.080 It's a holistic kind of thing,

00:15:35.980 you know,

00:15:36.140 the Biden administration take on it.

00:15:39.140 Now, here's the thing.

00:15:40.680 I actually totally agree

00:15:41.820 with the Biden interpretation.

00:15:45.200 I think that

00:15:46.480 if you took the simplistic explanation

00:15:49.660 of a recession,

00:15:51.220 of just two periods of negative growth,

00:15:53.100 that doesn't make sense

00:15:54.840 coming out of a pandemic.

00:15:57.780 Because coming out of a pandemic

00:15:59.200 just changed everything, right?

00:16:02.060 So if you had a temporary,

00:16:04.820 you know, a reset,

00:16:06.620 I shouldn't call it that,

00:16:07.720 if you had a temporary depression

00:16:09.120 coming out of a pandemic,

00:16:11.240 it could be that

00:16:12.140 all of your assets and resources

00:16:14.660 are in pretty good shape.

00:16:16.160 They just have to be spun up again.

00:16:18.960 So I do think

00:16:20.860 that the Biden administration

00:16:22.180 is accurate.

00:16:23.300 And by the way,

00:16:23.800 I would have defended Trump

00:16:24.920 for saying the same thing.

00:16:26.500 If Trump had said this,

00:16:27.540 I'd defend it as well.

00:16:29.680 I do think

00:16:30.500 this specific case,

00:16:32.960 just this specific case,

00:16:34.860 you do have to look at it holistically.

00:16:37.720 Right?

00:16:37.880 So I hate to agree.

00:16:39.640 I hate to agree

00:16:40.580 because they're sort of

00:16:41.380 weaseling the thing.

00:16:43.240 But it's not wrong.

00:16:44.720 That's not wrong.

00:16:45.420 I think you have to look at it holistically.

00:16:46.800 Because it's weird

00:16:48.140 that employment is still good.

00:16:50.800 Right?

00:16:51.280 That was the part

00:16:52.100 that was a mystery.

00:16:53.140 But I got the answer

00:16:54.200 to that mystery.

00:16:54.860 We'll talk about it.

00:16:56.680 All right.

00:16:58.780 Here's another example

00:16:59.900 of news being created

00:17:02.240 out of a word.

00:17:04.260 The news in the

00:17:05.180 Wall Street Journal,

00:17:05.940 which I believe

00:17:06.420 has been completely debunked,

00:17:08.000 in my opinion,

00:17:08.760 this is not true.

00:17:10.400 Right?

00:17:10.720 I don't know.

00:17:12.060 But in my opinion,

00:17:13.040 what I'm going to read to you

00:17:13.960 is a fake news story

00:17:15.440 from Wall Street Journal.

00:17:16.800 Who claimed that

00:17:18.020 Elon Musk had an affair.

00:17:20.340 That was their word.

00:17:21.640 An affair.

00:17:22.420 And this is the word

00:17:23.320 that's going to be questioned here.

00:17:25.080 An affair

00:17:25.800 with one of the founders

00:17:27.860 of Google,

00:17:28.580 Sergey Brin's ex-wife.

00:17:31.540 Now,

00:17:32.180 the reporting is

00:17:33.080 that this alleged thing

00:17:34.600 which Musk

00:17:36.020 and the woman involved 0.81

00:17:37.320 and Sergey Brin

00:17:38.180 and basically anybody

00:17:39.120 who knows anything

00:17:39.820 denies,

00:17:41.960 and I believe it.

00:17:43.780 Their denials

00:17:44.760 look credible to me.

00:17:46.800 But here's the part

00:17:48.760 that I'm not going to be able

00:17:50.000 to release on.

00:17:51.560 The reporting

00:17:52.320 from the Wall Street Journal,

00:17:53.520 which I believe is false,

00:17:55.580 says that the, quote,

00:17:56.780 affair happened

00:17:57.720 during a time

00:17:58.660 that Sergey Brin

00:18:00.400 and his wife

00:18:01.060 were separated

00:18:01.980 but living

00:18:03.180 in the same home.

00:18:06.440 Now,

00:18:06.900 let me connect

00:18:07.520 the dots here for you.

00:18:08.480 The Wall Street Journal

00:18:09.260 says

00:18:09.700 Musk had an affair

00:18:11.820 with somebody

00:18:13.480 who was single.

00:18:17.200 You see where

00:18:17.920 I'm going with this?

00:18:19.480 That's not

00:18:20.060 a fucking affair. 0.80

00:18:21.640 That would be

00:18:22.360 two single people

00:18:23.220 having a date

00:18:23.960 if it happened,

00:18:25.160 which apparently

00:18:25.960 it didn't.

00:18:26.500 Do you know

00:18:27.820 what an affair is?

00:18:29.180 I had to look up

00:18:30.220 the definition

00:18:30.800 because I thought

00:18:31.400 I was going

00:18:31.780 fucking crazy.

00:18:33.600 I thought I was

00:18:34.300 going fucking crazy.

00:18:36.000 I go,

00:18:36.420 did I,

00:18:37.080 what the hell

00:18:37.880 do words mean?

00:18:38.620 I thought an affair

00:18:40.620 meant that somebody

00:18:42.600 was in a relationship

00:18:43.960 and the person

00:18:45.440 they were in

00:18:46.020 the relationship

00:18:46.700 with was unaware

00:18:47.800 that they were

00:18:48.980 doing somebody else.

00:18:50.640 Did we stop

00:18:51.360 using the word

00:18:52.040 affair to mean that?

00:18:53.940 And now an affair

00:18:54.620 is two single people

00:18:55.840 who are dating?

00:18:58.400 Just think about

00:18:59.400 the fact that

00:19:00.260 this Murdoch property,

00:19:01.860 the Wall Street Journal,

00:19:03.960 did a hit piece

00:19:04.880 on Musk

00:19:05.400 in which the entire

00:19:06.540 story,

00:19:07.800 first of all,

00:19:08.220 it's probably

00:19:08.720 based on fake

00:19:09.860 information.

00:19:11.600 But even if it

00:19:12.460 were true,

00:19:13.940 the story would

00:19:14.700 disprove their

00:19:15.500 own reporting.

00:19:17.620 If it were true,

00:19:18.740 which it isn't,

00:19:20.260 their own story,

00:19:21.640 the way they

00:19:22.180 reported it,

00:19:23.220 disproves their

00:19:24.040 own conclusion

00:19:24.840 with no ambiguity

00:19:26.600 whatsoever.

00:19:29.220 Am I wrong?

00:19:31.080 The meaning

00:19:31.880 of the fucking

00:19:32.580 word means

00:19:33.620 you're not single

00:19:34.440 when it's happening.

00:19:35.780 If you're single,

00:19:37.220 which is what

00:19:37.800 they reported,

00:19:39.100 separated means

00:19:39.820 single,

00:19:40.960 there's nothing

00:19:42.420 here.

00:19:43.580 So there's this

00:19:44.380 giant hit piece

00:19:45.180 that's based on

00:19:45.800 probably nothing

00:19:46.740 that really

00:19:47.240 happened,

00:19:47.980 and if it really

00:19:49.040 happened,

00:19:49.500 it would still

00:19:50.200 be fucking 0.95

00:19:50.800 nothing.

00:19:52.240 Still be

00:19:52.880 fucking nothing.

00:19:54.560 And it's a

00:19:55.000 major story.

00:19:56.700 How do you

00:19:57.380 explain this

00:19:58.000 other than

00:19:58.600 Murdoch wants

00:20:00.000 to blunt

00:20:01.020 Musk's power?

00:20:03.080 power.

00:20:04.700 I feel like

00:20:05.400 Elon Musk

00:20:07.500 was becoming

00:20:08.380 too influential

00:20:11.260 in the news

00:20:12.700 business,

00:20:13.940 simply by

00:20:14.540 tweeting and

00:20:15.200 maybe taking

00:20:15.720 over Twitter.

00:20:16.480 We don't know

00:20:16.920 if that's going

00:20:17.400 to happen.

00:20:18.340 But I feel like

00:20:18.980 Murdoch was

00:20:19.580 feeling that his

00:20:20.160 own, this is

00:20:20.780 just speculation,

00:20:21.660 right?

00:20:22.080 I have no way

00:20:22.620 of knowing this.

00:20:23.660 But the

00:20:24.020 speculation is

00:20:24.800 that Musk

00:20:26.580 is going to

00:20:27.740 be hit with

00:20:28.200 these hit pieces

00:20:28.800 because the

00:20:31.200 more powerful

00:20:31.960 Musk's 0.98

00:20:33.340 persuasion is,

00:20:34.660 the less

00:20:35.280 powerful Murdoch's

00:20:36.620 entities that

00:20:38.500 he uses

00:20:38.800 persuasion for

00:20:39.680 would be.

00:20:41.880 This looks like

00:20:42.840 a billionaire

00:20:43.260 fight.

00:20:45.120 What would you

00:20:45.960 say?

00:20:46.600 I think it's

00:20:47.080 Murdoch versus

00:20:47.780 Musk and

00:20:48.300 there's nothing

00:20:48.680 else to it.

00:20:49.940 That's what it

00:20:50.460 feels like.

00:20:52.260 Just speculation.

00:20:54.740 Well, the

00:20:55.340 Pope has

00:20:55.800 gone on an

00:20:57.680 apology tour.

00:20:58.800 He's visiting

00:20:59.900 Canada to

00:21:00.660 apologize for

00:21:01.500 the church's

00:21:02.160 role in,

00:21:04.100 well, listen

00:21:04.560 to this

00:21:05.380 allegation.

00:21:06.300 And I guess

00:21:06.640 the Pope is

00:21:07.220 confessing and

00:21:07.980 apologizing, so

00:21:08.900 I guess it's

00:21:10.080 beyond an

00:21:10.660 allegation.

00:21:11.660 So this is

00:21:12.140 history, I

00:21:12.940 guess.

00:21:14.360 So it's a

00:21:15.860 pilgrimage of

00:21:16.560 penance, he 0.54

00:21:17.100 says, to

00:21:18.340 apologize to

00:21:19.140 the indigenous

00:21:19.860 populations for,

00:21:21.840 I guess, the

00:21:22.260 Roman Catholic

00:21:22.880 Church from 0.80

00:21:24.420 the 19th

00:21:25.220 century through

00:21:25.820 the 1970s,

00:21:27.080 right?

00:21:27.380 So a long

00:21:28.240 period of

00:21:28.680 time, more

00:21:29.700 than 150,000

00:21:31.020 of the

00:21:31.420 indigenous

00:21:31.740 children were

00:21:32.900 taken from

00:21:33.520 homes and

00:21:34.120 put into

00:21:34.480 residential

00:21:35.040 schools run

00:21:35.780 by Christian

00:21:36.460 churches on

00:21:37.780 behalf of the

00:21:38.260 government to

00:21:39.780 assimilate them.

00:21:41.240 They were

00:21:41.820 taken from

00:21:42.360 their families

00:21:42.980 and put

00:21:43.860 into residential

00:21:48.280 schools, which

00:21:49.000 means that they

00:21:49.860 literally took

00:21:50.660 people's kids

00:21:51.320 from them.

00:21:51.760 they literally

00:21:54.820 took people's

00:21:55.500 children from

00:21:56.120 them and put

00:21:58.140 them in

00:21:58.380 residential

00:21:58.860 schools.

00:22:02.220 Now, even

00:22:03.660 if we

00:22:04.300 acknowledge they

00:22:05.000 were well

00:22:05.660 intentioned,

00:22:07.200 yikes.

00:22:09.820 But here's my

00:22:10.960 question to the

00:22:11.880 Pope.

00:22:14.180 It feels like a

00:22:15.240 little bit of a

00:22:15.980 slippery slope to

00:22:17.100 start apologizing

00:22:18.080 for the

00:22:20.480 history of

00:22:21.040 Catholicism.

00:22:22.640 At what

00:22:23.380 point do you

00:22:24.720 feel you're

00:22:25.140 done?

00:22:27.020 If you start

00:22:28.060 apologizing for

00:22:29.480 things that the

00:22:30.520 Catholic Church has

00:22:31.780 done over

00:22:32.460 hundreds of

00:22:33.960 years, where

00:22:36.080 exactly do you

00:22:36.860 draw the line

00:22:37.680 and say, well, I

00:22:39.700 think we've

00:22:40.080 apologized for

00:22:40.820 everything.

00:22:41.020 It's all

00:22:41.340 covered now.

00:22:42.780 I'm not sure

00:22:43.520 you could ever

00:22:44.000 be done with

00:22:44.520 that job.

00:22:46.480 So, and, you

00:22:48.560 know, if you're

00:22:49.120 new to my

00:22:49.940 content, let me

00:22:51.040 remind you, I'm

00:22:51.760 pro-religion.

00:22:53.600 So I'm

00:22:54.480 completely pro-

00:22:55.660 Catholicism,

00:22:57.060 pro-Islam,

00:22:58.360 pro-Buddhism,

00:23:00.500 pro-religion.

00:23:01.600 Because people do

00:23:02.420 make religion work 0.74

00:23:03.340 for them, and it

00:23:04.280 benefits their

00:23:05.140 life, you

00:23:06.300 know, despite

00:23:06.760 any abuses by

00:23:08.300 the organizations

00:23:08.980 themselves.

00:23:09.520 And I just

00:23:11.600 think it's

00:23:11.940 funny, you

00:23:12.640 can see how

00:23:13.560 apologizing doesn't

00:23:14.720 work, right?

00:23:16.680 Even if it makes

00:23:17.420 you feel good at

00:23:18.060 the moment, when

00:23:19.560 an entity like the

00:23:20.800 Catholic Church starts 0.92

00:23:21.740 apologizing, I

00:23:23.060 just don't know

00:23:23.540 where you stop.

00:23:25.220 At some point, you

00:23:25.940 just have to say,

00:23:26.680 yeah, we sucked in

00:23:27.500 the past, let's see

00:23:28.320 if we can get it

00:23:28.860 right.

00:23:35.920 Catholicism.

00:23:39.520 Somebody says it's

00:23:40.240 pronounced Catholicism?

00:23:42.900 That's not right, is

00:23:43.780 it?

00:23:45.040 All right, well, it

00:23:45.700 doesn't matter.

00:23:48.180 How many of you

00:23:49.060 think that Klaus

00:23:50.140 Schwab, the

00:23:52.160 person associated

00:23:53.260 with the Great

00:23:53.800 Reset, how many

00:23:55.420 of you believe that

00:23:56.280 he once said that

00:23:57.460 in the future, you

00:23:58.360 won't own anything

00:23:59.200 and you'll like it?

00:24:01.440 How many believe

00:24:02.340 that he said that?

00:24:03.640 In the future, you

00:24:05.340 won't own anything

00:24:06.220 and you'll like it?

00:24:07.420 Have you ever

00:24:10.480 tried Googling that

00:24:11.860 to see if that

00:24:12.600 actually really

00:24:13.220 happened?

00:24:15.020 Never happened.

00:24:17.280 It's one of the

00:24:17.940 most pervasive

00:24:19.120 beliefs on the

00:24:19.920 right.

00:24:20.840 Never happened.

00:24:22.320 Nope, didn't

00:24:23.060 happen.

00:24:23.900 I'll tell you what

00:24:24.600 did happen that

00:24:25.380 people think

00:24:26.280 happened.

00:24:27.460 What he did say

00:24:28.460 is in the future,

00:24:30.440 you might have

00:24:31.420 things delivered

00:24:32.120 to you by drone

00:24:33.160 that you would

00:24:34.900 rent.

00:24:35.200 That's right.

00:24:37.420 that you would

00:24:38.560 have things

00:24:39.000 delivered by drone

00:24:40.060 that you would

00:24:41.480 rent.

00:24:41.860 You wouldn't

00:24:42.120 own it.

00:24:43.100 Now, he did

00:24:43.560 say that, right?

00:24:47.040 Am I right?

00:24:48.480 He said that you

00:24:49.360 would have things

00:24:49.920 delivered by drone

00:24:51.000 and that you

00:24:51.820 would rent them.

00:24:52.480 You wouldn't

00:24:52.800 own them.

00:24:54.300 Right.

00:24:55.040 And I'm agreeing

00:24:56.460 with you.

00:24:56.780 It's in a video

00:24:57.380 that things would

00:24:59.180 be delivered by

00:25:00.020 drones and you

00:25:01.140 wouldn't, you

00:25:01.960 would rent them,

00:25:03.860 not own them.

00:25:04.380 Now, what

00:25:07.460 kinds of things

00:25:08.160 can be delivered

00:25:08.880 by a drone?

00:25:12.020 What do you

00:25:12.580 think?

00:25:14.600 What kind of

00:25:15.300 things can be

00:25:15.840 delivered by a

00:25:16.580 drone?

00:25:17.740 Well, I can

00:25:19.180 think of, let's

00:25:19.740 say you needed

00:25:20.660 a specialized

00:25:21.280 tool or even

00:25:23.180 a specialized

00:25:23.700 medical device.

00:25:25.480 Let's say you

00:25:26.160 needed a medical

00:25:26.820 device or, like

00:25:27.880 the other day,

00:25:28.460 I needed a tool

00:25:29.560 to check on my

00:25:30.680 internet connectivity.

00:25:31.720 So I wanted a

00:25:33.240 special meter that

00:25:34.680 would tell me if

00:25:35.240 my, if my

00:25:36.520 ethernet jack was

00:25:37.480 alive.

00:25:38.520 Did I need to

00:25:39.400 own that?

00:25:40.700 Did I need to

00:25:41.640 own that?

00:25:42.240 Or if I, if I

00:25:43.300 could call up a

00:25:44.240 drone to be there

00:25:45.980 in an hour with

00:25:47.420 that tool and I

00:25:49.040 rented it and I

00:25:49.820 put it back on the

00:25:50.440 drone and returned

00:25:51.140 it, would I be

00:25:52.060 happy?

00:25:54.260 Probably.

00:25:55.500 Probably.

00:25:55.980 I'd be happy

00:25:56.560 because I wouldn't

00:25:57.500 have to buy it for

00:25:59.260 something I would

00:25:59.900 only use once.

00:26:00.720 and, and I'd

00:26:03.100 be happy.

00:26:04.220 Now, here's the

00:26:05.280 context.

00:26:06.560 How do you get to

00:26:07.400 the point where

00:26:08.040 drones are delivering

00:26:09.220 things you can rent?

00:26:11.080 What, what is the

00:26:11.860 possible way you

00:26:12.740 could ever get to

00:26:13.420 that future?

00:26:15.520 I can only see

00:26:16.460 one way.

00:26:18.580 Market forces.

00:26:20.300 Just market forces.

00:26:22.260 They'll make the 0.90

00:26:23.060 drones better.

00:26:25.040 Leasing is better

00:26:25.940 than buying for

00:26:26.860 some types of

00:26:27.660 products, but not

00:26:28.400 all.

00:26:28.620 all I see is

00:26:31.240 Charles Schwab,

00:26:32.440 not Charles Schwab,

00:26:33.740 Klaus Schwab, all I

00:26:35.840 see is him saying

00:26:36.780 the obvious, that

00:26:37.680 market forces will

00:26:38.700 have us delivering

00:26:39.520 things that we rent

00:26:40.480 and we'll like it.

00:26:42.380 Why wouldn't you

00:26:43.160 like that?

00:26:43.780 It's just an option.

00:26:45.580 They didn't take

00:26:46.500 away your ability to

00:26:47.540 own a tool.

00:26:48.920 They just said you

00:26:49.580 can get one for

00:26:50.200 rent if you wanted.

00:26:52.580 To me, this is just

00:26:53.880 a statement of the

00:26:55.060 most obvious market

00:26:56.880 force predictions.

00:26:59.200 Drones will deliver

00:27:00.180 stuff he can rent.

00:27:02.780 Now, how about

00:27:03.520 owning a private

00:27:04.300 automobile?

00:27:05.860 Do you think the

00:27:06.740 World Economic

00:27:07.600 Forum wants you to

00:27:08.820 not own a private

00:27:09.700 automobile?

00:27:12.300 Probably.

00:27:13.900 Probably, yeah.

00:27:14.760 Yeah, I agree.

00:27:15.780 Do you know what's

00:27:16.420 going to make that

00:27:16.920 happen?

00:27:18.560 Market forces.

00:27:20.260 It's not going to

00:27:20.960 be them.

00:27:21.380 The minute I can

00:27:24.160 not own a car, I'm

00:27:25.420 all over it.

00:27:26.920 The minute I don't

00:27:28.480 have to own a car

00:27:29.320 and I can still get

00:27:30.180 anywhere I want, I

00:27:31.420 am getting rid of my

00:27:32.220 fucking car that day. 0.77

00:27:35.640 The day I don't need

00:27:37.220 a car, it's gone.

00:27:39.560 Right?

00:27:40.140 Now, you might say,

00:27:41.300 no, I love my car,

00:27:42.640 and I'll bet you get

00:27:43.460 to keep it.

00:27:44.680 I'll bet you get to

00:27:45.480 keep your car for a

00:27:46.280 long time.

00:27:47.300 Probably your whole

00:27:47.940 lifetime.

00:27:48.220 But at some point,

00:27:50.480 it just won't make

00:27:51.200 sense to own a car.

00:27:53.360 It won't make sense

00:27:54.100 for you as an

00:27:54.940 individual.

00:27:56.460 You know, you can

00:27:57.200 use your garage for

00:27:58.220 something else.

00:28:01.520 So, what I see with

00:28:02.960 this old Klaus Schwab

00:28:04.060 thing is that he

00:28:05.400 talks about market

00:28:07.040 forces delivering us

00:28:09.080 a different kind of

00:28:10.080 society that we would

00:28:11.160 enjoy, but not

00:28:13.340 taking away all our

00:28:14.160 options, just giving

00:28:15.380 us more options and

00:28:16.500 it would move in a

00:28:17.980 certain way.

00:28:20.380 Now, so somebody

00:28:22.580 says, here it is,

00:28:23.740 here's the video.

00:28:26.140 Now, I can watch

00:28:27.600 the video, but

00:28:28.580 remember, I just

00:28:29.360 agreed with you what

00:28:30.460 it says.

00:28:31.800 So, watching the

00:28:32.700 video doesn't move

00:28:33.620 our argument forward.

00:28:35.280 Because you're saying

00:28:36.180 it and I'm saying it,

00:28:36.900 the same thing.

00:28:37.840 He did say that

00:28:39.400 you'll rent things in

00:28:40.220 the future.

00:28:42.200 He did say that.

00:28:43.220 We're all agreeing

00:28:43.800 on that, so I don't

00:28:44.380 have to see it.

00:28:45.580 But what's it mean?

00:28:46.500 He didn't say we're

00:28:48.080 going to introduce

00:28:48.800 some communism so you

00:28:49.880 can't own things.

00:28:51.740 Market forces alone

00:28:53.200 will make you not

00:28:54.180 want to own a car.

00:28:55.680 I already don't want

00:28:56.760 to own a car.

00:28:57.760 Owning a car is the

00:28:58.520 worst deal in the

00:28:59.700 world.

00:29:00.820 It's terrible.

00:29:02.480 Right?

00:29:02.780 Unless you love cars,

00:29:03.780 then it's fine.

00:29:04.700 Then it's more like a

00:29:05.300 hobby.

00:29:09.260 All right.

00:29:10.640 But anyway, I would

00:29:12.100 ask you to do this.

00:29:14.300 Whenever you see any

00:29:15.260 kind of Klaus Schwab

00:29:16.580 reset stuff, just take

00:29:19.700 a look at the debunks.

00:29:21.740 You know, just Google

00:29:22.380 it.

00:29:25.920 Because I think you've

00:29:27.020 got that story.

00:29:28.000 At least some of you

00:29:28.680 have that story

00:29:29.240 completely wrong.

00:29:30.900 Feels like it to me.

00:29:33.740 Yeah.

00:29:34.140 So they predicted, the

00:29:36.020 World Economic Forum, I

00:29:37.120 guess, that by 2030,

00:29:39.100 people would rent what

00:29:40.020 they needed and they'd

00:29:41.920 be happy about it.

00:29:43.580 I don't know.

00:29:46.460 Andres Backhaus tweeted

00:29:48.260 today, there's some stats

00:29:49.440 coming out from Germany,

00:29:50.920 that consumption of

00:29:52.060 natural gas in Germany

00:29:53.980 was down over 19%

00:29:55.700 compared to 2021.

00:29:58.140 And even more compared

00:29:59.380 to the 10-year average.

00:30:00.240 And consumption in 2022

00:30:03.060 is down 14%, almost 15%.

00:30:05.560 And as Andres points

00:30:08.120 out, if it continues, the

00:30:09.420 EU gas-saving targets

00:30:10.860 might be feasible.

00:30:12.760 So the EU is looking to

00:30:15.620 fairly drastically cut

00:30:18.380 back on gas production,

00:30:20.260 and it looks like it

00:30:21.300 might be doable.

00:30:23.340 Might be doable.

00:30:25.920 So here is another

00:30:27.860 application of the

00:30:29.200 Adams Law of Slow

00:30:31.000 Moving Disasters.

00:30:32.520 And it gets us to

00:30:33.640 an edge case.

00:30:35.020 The only other edge

00:30:36.280 case that was kind

00:30:37.360 of clean was the

00:30:38.480 year 2000 problem,

00:30:40.480 when we thought the

00:30:41.180 computers couldn't

00:30:41.860 handle the year 2000

00:30:42.960 and society would

00:30:44.260 break down.

00:30:45.460 I felt like people

00:30:46.580 didn't get serious

00:30:47.500 about fixing that

00:30:48.580 until a year before

00:30:49.880 it had to be fixed.

00:30:52.060 But in one year,

00:30:54.020 it was completely fixed.

00:30:55.920 I don't think there

00:30:56.880 was a single problem

00:30:57.800 that I heard of.

00:30:58.480 So it feels like the

00:31:00.880 Adams Law of Slow

00:31:02.200 Moving Disasters, if

00:31:03.700 it's software, could

00:31:05.760 be fixed in a year.

00:31:08.160 Software is easier to

00:31:09.180 fix.

00:31:10.040 But what happens when

00:31:11.780 you know, let's say,

00:31:13.200 a year in advance-ish,

00:31:16.160 that you might have to

00:31:16.860 cut back your energy

00:31:17.740 production by 20% or

00:31:19.700 whatever the guideline

00:31:20.280 is?

00:31:21.760 Is a year enough for

00:31:23.460 people to change all

00:31:24.480 the things they do

00:31:25.440 enough to cut back

00:31:27.300 20%?

00:31:28.840 And I think the

00:31:29.380 answer is yes.

00:31:30.760 It looks like the

00:31:31.380 answer is yes, that

00:31:32.720 people can cut back

00:31:33.580 20% if you give them

00:31:35.080 enough time and

00:31:35.800 adjustments and they

00:31:37.060 know they have to do

00:31:37.720 it.

00:31:40.560 Yeah, if you have

00:31:41.360 COVID going on.

00:31:43.780 But this is sort of

00:31:44.940 semi-post-COVID.

00:31:48.020 Likewise, Germany just 0.83

00:31:50.000 said it's going to

00:31:51.260 fire up three more

00:31:53.020 nuclear plants.

00:31:54.480 If this sounds like a

00:31:55.960 repeat, it's three

00:31:58.060 more.

00:31:58.920 So they already

00:31:59.580 announced they were

00:32:00.240 going to reopen some

00:32:01.120 plants and they just

00:32:02.920 announced three more

00:32:05.520 are likely to be

00:32:06.500 reopened.

00:32:07.180 And apparently they

00:32:07.860 can do it quickly.

00:32:09.300 Apparently they can do

00:32:10.140 this in a year or so

00:32:11.540 because they're already

00:32:12.420 built.

00:32:12.760 They just have to be

00:32:13.360 fired up.

00:32:16.600 Does Adam's Law

00:32:17.720 apply to Lake Mead?

00:32:19.880 The answer is yes.

00:32:21.040 in the sense that

00:32:23.760 will California run

00:32:25.820 out of water?

00:32:26.900 I think not.

00:32:28.840 But I don't know how

00:32:29.460 we're going to avoid

00:32:30.900 it.

00:32:31.580 Frankly, I have no

00:32:32.800 idea how we're going

00:32:33.520 to avoid running out

00:32:34.360 of water in California.

00:32:36.020 But we do have time

00:32:37.460 to figure it out.

00:32:38.940 So I think we'll

00:32:40.180 figure it out.

00:32:41.360 But who knows?

00:32:45.500 Anyway.

00:32:45.980 Anyway, Germany looks

00:32:51.840 like it'll be okay.

00:32:53.940 Despite how Putin's

00:32:56.540 threat to them is

00:32:58.820 pretty serious, I

00:33:00.620 think they'll be okay.

00:33:03.120 Here are two news

00:33:04.340 stories that are

00:33:04.960 happening at the same

00:33:05.800 time and we're

00:33:06.600 pretending that they're

00:33:07.500 not.

00:33:09.140 Number one, the

00:33:10.580 January 6th story,

00:33:12.080 is that Trump was

00:33:13.060 allegedly too slow.

00:33:14.520 178 minutes

00:33:17.020 too slow

00:33:17.520 in speaking out

00:33:19.000 against the

00:33:19.680 protests and

00:33:20.700 the potential

00:33:21.300 violence.

00:33:23.580 And that, of

00:33:24.240 course, was during

00:33:24.760 the fog of war

00:33:25.580 when Trump probably

00:33:27.500 didn't know exactly

00:33:28.280 what was going on

00:33:29.080 because nobody

00:33:29.660 did.

00:33:31.960 So that's one story.

00:33:33.380 That Trump was

00:33:34.080 too slow.

00:33:35.980 Now, nobody's

00:33:36.780 saying that he did

00:33:37.460 the wrong thing

00:33:38.140 when he acted

00:33:38.740 because he did

00:33:39.640 tell people to

00:33:40.280 be, you know,

00:33:41.500 be nonviolent.

00:33:43.800 But the

00:33:45.100 complaint is it

00:33:45.800 took too long.

00:33:47.080 All right?

00:33:47.260 So that's one

00:33:47.740 story.

00:33:48.860 Trump took

00:33:49.700 too long,

00:33:51.020 minutes actually,

00:33:52.460 too long.

00:33:54.420 Second story,

00:33:55.480 which we're going

00:33:56.060 to pretend is

00:33:56.760 unrelated to the

00:33:57.740 first, is that

00:33:59.280 insiders are 1.00

00:34:00.080 complaining that

00:34:00.820 in the Biden

00:34:01.400 administration,

00:34:02.820 Biden is putting

00:34:03.760 off important

00:34:04.480 decisions for as

00:34:05.400 long as a year.

00:34:06.120 So Trump

00:34:10.740 can't be

00:34:12.380 president, the

00:34:13.040 Democrats say,

00:34:13.820 because in the

00:34:14.500 fog of war,

00:34:16.380 it took him

00:34:16.880 178 minutes to

00:34:18.280 act, and two

00:34:20.500 of the major

00:34:21.100 publications

00:34:21.780 that dominate

00:34:24.500 the Democrat

00:34:25.980 world, the

00:34:27.520 Washington Post

00:34:28.140 and the New

00:34:28.500 York Times,

00:34:28.960 have both

00:34:29.240 debunked this,

00:34:30.660 but still,

00:34:31.520 that's the

00:34:31.920 claim, that he

00:34:33.320 waited too long

00:34:33.980 to act.

00:34:34.340 Minutes,

00:34:34.820 minutes, I

00:34:35.360 say.

00:34:36.120 He waited

00:34:36.780 minutes to

00:34:37.320 act.

00:34:39.440 Meanwhile, Joe

00:34:40.260 Biden puts

00:34:40.800 off important

00:34:41.360 decisions for

00:34:42.120 up to a year,

00:34:43.360 and nobody

00:34:43.680 knows why, and

00:34:44.300 they're really

00:34:44.540 mad about it.

00:34:45.640 Well, I'll

00:34:46.000 tell you why.

00:34:46.760 He's not

00:34:47.120 capable.

00:34:49.160 Is there

00:34:49.560 another reason?

00:34:50.420 He's not

00:34:51.100 capable.

00:34:52.280 Now, here's a

00:34:53.140 little mental

00:34:54.780 experiment for

00:34:55.540 you.

00:34:57.860 Imagine if

00:34:58.680 Joe Biden

00:34:59.420 had been in

00:35:00.540 charge when

00:35:01.700 something like

00:35:02.640 January 6th

00:35:03.500 happened, you

00:35:03.960 know, not

00:35:04.240 January 6th, but

00:35:05.180 something like

00:35:06.180 it.

00:35:06.380 Can you

00:35:08.160 picture him

00:35:09.020 in charge

00:35:09.620 and making

00:35:10.720 quick decisions

00:35:11.700 when he puts

00:35:13.120 off normal

00:35:13.740 decisions for

00:35:14.460 a year?

00:35:15.320 He's clearly

00:35:16.060 not all

00:35:16.560 there, and

00:35:18.740 it's a fog

00:35:19.300 of war, and

00:35:20.600 people are

00:35:21.020 telling him

00:35:21.460 competing

00:35:21.880 things.

00:35:24.240 But just

00:35:24.880 put that in

00:35:25.600 your mind.

00:35:27.020 It doesn't

00:35:27.880 go well.

00:35:29.280 It doesn't

00:35:29.900 go well.

00:35:30.340 have you

00:35:32.120 seen the

00:35:32.700 back-to-back

00:35:33.460 videos of

00:35:34.500 Biden speaking

00:35:35.880 twice in

00:35:36.540 one day, and

00:35:37.800 how he looks

00:35:38.280 like a

00:35:38.640 completely

00:35:39.000 different

00:35:39.360 person?

00:35:42.300 One of

00:35:42.900 them looks

00:35:43.280 like, oh,

00:35:44.680 he's okay.

00:35:45.500 I mean, we

00:35:45.880 keep making

00:35:46.580 fun of him

00:35:47.220 for being

00:35:47.580 old, but

00:35:48.120 he's doing a

00:35:49.160 good job.

00:35:49.600 He's reading

00:35:49.900 that prompter.

00:35:51.420 Looks like

00:35:52.140 he's present.

00:35:53.460 He's in the

00:35:53.920 moment.

00:35:54.220 And then

00:35:55.880 you see the

00:35:56.460 video from

00:35:57.220 the same

00:35:57.860 day, and

00:35:59.820 he's deranged.

00:36:01.400 His eyes

00:36:02.000 are bugged,

00:36:03.640 and he

00:36:04.900 sounds like

00:36:05.440 off.

00:36:06.820 It's the

00:36:07.260 same day.

00:36:09.240 All right,

00:36:09.800 you can't

00:36:10.780 have a

00:36:11.380 president who's

00:36:12.100 not even the

00:36:12.780 same in the

00:36:13.500 morning as

00:36:14.060 the night.

00:36:15.860 Does

00:36:16.460 anybody

00:36:16.780 understand what

00:36:17.700 kind of a

00:36:18.540 danger that

00:36:19.340 puts us in?

00:36:20.580 That the

00:36:21.040 president isn't

00:36:21.740 even the same

00:36:22.420 person?

00:36:24.220 In the

00:36:24.720 beginning of

00:36:25.320 the day,

00:36:25.720 as the

00:36:26.040 end of the

00:36:26.440 day?

00:36:27.520 At the

00:36:27.820 end of the

00:36:28.180 day, he

00:36:28.480 looks sort

00:36:28.960 of agitated

00:36:30.080 and not

00:36:31.740 quite himself,

00:36:32.460 does he?

00:36:34.060 Is that the

00:36:34.760 guy you want

00:36:35.360 making some

00:36:36.000 world-important

00:36:37.380 decisions?

00:36:40.480 Yeah, I

00:36:41.000 don't know if

00:36:41.300 it's a sundowner

00:36:41.980 problem, and

00:36:42.740 I don't know

00:36:43.200 if it's that

00:36:44.880 he did or

00:36:45.420 did not get

00:36:46.000 some meds,

00:36:47.540 but Joe

00:36:49.440 Biden is not

00:36:50.220 one person

00:36:50.920 anymore.

00:36:52.000 He's two

00:36:52.580 people.

00:36:52.960 I don't

00:36:54.240 know which

00:36:54.580 one's going

00:36:54.960 to be making

00:36:55.400 the decision.

00:36:56.920 If you

00:36:57.440 told me that

00:36:58.020 the first

00:36:58.540 Joe Biden,

00:36:59.800 the one in

00:37:00.360 the video

00:37:00.720 where he

00:37:01.040 looks fairly

00:37:01.900 put together,

00:37:03.000 if you told

00:37:03.660 me he was

00:37:04.240 making a

00:37:04.700 decision, I'd

00:37:05.300 say, well,

00:37:06.280 I might not

00:37:06.780 like the

00:37:07.200 decision, but

00:37:08.080 he looks like

00:37:08.500 a guy who

00:37:08.920 could make

00:37:09.220 a decision.

00:37:10.680 He looks

00:37:11.140 like he's

00:37:11.660 at least

00:37:12.220 all there.

00:37:13.700 By the

00:37:14.380 afternoon, he

00:37:15.360 clearly wasn't

00:37:16.140 all there.

00:37:17.820 I mean,

00:37:18.200 humans can

00:37:18.820 tell.

00:37:19.640 You can tell

00:37:20.200 if somebody's

00:37:20.620 not all there.

00:37:21.420 I mean, that's

00:37:21.760 not that hard.

00:37:22.960 That's not a

00:37:23.820 high bar.

00:37:24.920 You don't

00:37:25.280 have to go to

00:37:25.780 a lot of

00:37:26.360 medical school

00:37:27.080 to know when

00:37:28.060 somebody's just

00:37:28.560 not all there.

00:37:29.920 That's not a

00:37:30.620 high bar.

00:37:31.580 He's not

00:37:31.980 all there.

00:37:32.780 We all see

00:37:33.600 him.

00:37:35.080 So it's

00:37:36.780 time for

00:37:37.320 President

00:37:37.680 Harris.

00:37:38.080 I think

00:37:39.860 Republicans

00:37:40.920 should just

00:37:41.420 stop acting

00:37:42.160 like he's

00:37:42.640 in charge.

00:37:44.020 Just stop

00:37:44.520 pretending.

00:37:45.800 They say, we

00:37:46.160 don't know who's

00:37:46.680 in charge, but

00:37:47.280 we need to

00:37:47.660 have an

00:37:47.940 investigation to

00:37:48.760 find out.

00:37:49.200 imagine if

00:37:50.960 you would

00:37:51.400 that Republicans

00:37:52.200 launched an

00:37:53.860 investigation to

00:37:56.360 find out who's

00:37:57.060 making the

00:37:57.580 decisions for

00:37:58.280 Biden.

00:38:00.960 Wouldn't you

00:38:01.540 like to know?

00:38:02.900 Because I'm

00:38:03.720 pretty sure I

00:38:04.380 don't know.

00:38:06.800 Now, yeah, it'd

00:38:09.520 be interesting,

00:38:10.140 wouldn't it?

00:38:10.500 We've never had

00:38:11.180 to do this

00:38:11.640 before.

00:38:12.480 You always

00:38:12.880 suspect somebody's

00:38:13.840 making decisions for

00:38:14.740 somebody else.

00:38:15.200 But this time

00:38:16.320 you'd really

00:38:16.800 have to wonder.

00:38:19.720 Because remember

00:38:20.220 when people

00:38:20.640 thought Cheney

00:38:21.280 was making

00:38:21.740 decisions for

00:38:22.600 Bush Jr.?

00:38:24.180 That matters.

00:38:25.360 Do you

00:38:25.520 remember when

00:38:26.060 people thought

00:38:26.900 Nancy Reagan's

00:38:28.700 astrologer was

00:38:30.200 influencing Ronald

00:38:31.220 Reagan?

00:38:32.080 That matters.

00:38:33.560 That does

00:38:34.380 matter.

00:38:35.360 That's not

00:38:36.140 irrelevant.

00:38:37.220 Not irrelevant.

00:38:39.620 Yeah.

00:38:40.480 So yeah, let's

00:38:41.240 look into that,

00:38:42.060 find out who's

00:38:42.540 in charge.

00:38:43.400 But as much

00:38:44.560 as I dislike

00:38:45.540 Kamala Harris's

00:38:47.280 abilities, she's 1.00

00:38:49.520 at least sane.

00:38:51.500 She's at least

00:38:52.200 the same in the

00:38:52.840 morning as she

00:38:53.400 is in the

00:38:53.720 afternoon, whether

00:38:54.540 you like it or

00:38:55.080 not.

00:38:56.400 I think it's

00:38:57.220 time for Harris

00:38:58.180 to take over.

00:39:00.340 And by the way,

00:39:01.060 I don't even,

00:39:01.780 well, maybe I am.

00:39:02.860 I'm biased, so.

00:39:04.300 I don't think this

00:39:05.260 is a political

00:39:05.900 statement, because

00:39:07.220 I'm saying replace 1.00

00:39:08.320 him with somebody

00:39:09.060 that's worse.

00:39:10.300 Worse in terms

00:39:11.160 of, you know,

00:39:12.260 more Democrat

00:39:13.220 than the

00:39:14.020 Democrat.

00:39:15.120 So I would be

00:39:16.140 willing to take

00:39:16.720 somebody who's

00:39:17.380 worse on policy,

00:39:19.260 worse in a lot

00:39:20.420 of ways, just to

00:39:21.840 know she's there.

00:39:23.480 You know, just to

00:39:23.940 know she's all

00:39:24.460 there.

00:39:25.200 Because the

00:39:25.620 alternative is

00:39:26.340 just scary.

00:39:27.560 It seems random.

00:39:28.540 You don't know

00:39:28.860 what he's going to

00:39:29.380 order.

00:39:30.720 You know, angry

00:39:31.320 Joe.

00:39:33.480 So I think even

00:39:34.800 Republicans should

00:39:35.680 be calling for

00:39:36.440 Harris to take

00:39:37.240 over.

00:39:38.340 And if I were

00:39:39.220 them, I'd start

00:39:39.820 taking meetings

00:39:40.440 with Harris and

00:39:41.280 skip Biden.

00:39:42.080 Because you

00:39:44.540 don't know who's

00:39:45.100 in charge, right?

00:39:46.300 If you don't know

00:39:47.080 who's in charge and

00:39:48.100 you want to get

00:39:48.520 something done, are

00:39:49.220 you going to take

00:39:49.600 a meeting with

00:39:50.340 Biden?

00:39:51.860 I wouldn't.

00:39:53.160 I'd just say we're

00:39:53.900 going to meet with

00:39:54.360 Harris because we

00:39:55.540 don't think Biden's

00:39:56.460 capable.

00:39:57.940 Imagine if the

00:39:58.660 Republicans said,

00:40:00.020 from here forward,

00:40:01.180 we're not going to

00:40:02.100 take any meetings

00:40:02.880 with Biden because

00:40:04.360 we don't think he's

00:40:05.200 mentally capable.

00:40:06.360 So we'll take all

00:40:07.120 of our meetings with

00:40:07.820 the vice president

00:40:08.560 if she'll have

00:40:09.200 us.

00:40:09.940 I mean, obviously

00:40:10.480 she would immediately

00:40:11.400 say, I won't take

00:40:12.220 those meetings.

00:40:13.240 But you should say,

00:40:14.120 we want to meet

00:40:14.640 with them as soon

00:40:15.160 as possible.

00:40:16.140 But we'd like to

00:40:16.720 be with Harris because

00:40:18.940 we don't think that

00:40:19.800 Biden's in control

00:40:20.700 anymore.

00:40:22.280 I mean, it would be

00:40:22.840 a political thing to

00:40:23.680 do, but it would be

00:40:25.340 interesting.

00:40:27.040 Well, the Washington

00:40:27.960 Post is saying that

00:40:31.380 the Justice Department

00:40:32.320 is investigating Donald

00:40:33.540 Trump's actions as

00:40:34.980 part of its criminal

00:40:35.860 probe of efforts to

00:40:37.620 overturn the 2020

00:40:38.600 elections, blah, blah,

00:40:39.460 blah.

00:40:39.900 Have you figured out

00:40:41.080 by now that the

00:40:42.260 Democrat plan is to

00:40:43.620 keep Trump permanently

00:40:45.280 under investigation for

00:40:46.960 one thing or another

00:40:47.740 that didn't happen?

00:40:50.020 It's pretty clear that

00:40:52.160 their plan is to keep

00:40:53.300 him criminally probed

00:40:55.160 forever without ever

00:40:56.360 finding anything.

00:40:57.420 Because if there was

00:40:58.860 anything to find, I

00:41:01.120 don't know if there's

00:41:01.820 ever been a better

00:41:02.620 vetted president in our

00:41:03.940 life.

00:41:04.800 This would be the one

00:41:05.560 guy I wouldn't be

00:41:06.380 worried about finding

00:41:07.260 out with something

00:41:07.780 after he became

00:41:08.440 president.

00:41:09.760 You worry about that

00:41:10.820 with every president,

00:41:11.700 don't you?

00:41:12.460 What happens if this

00:41:13.380 president gets in office

00:41:14.320 and a minute later we

00:41:16.360 find out it was

00:41:16.940 something we wish we'd

00:41:18.120 known?

00:41:19.060 How in the world could

00:41:20.180 there be anything about

00:41:21.040 Trump we don't know at

00:41:21.940 this point?

00:41:22.940 I mean, that we could

00:41:24.080 find out?

00:41:26.540 And maybe it could

00:41:27.580 happen.

00:41:28.500 All right.

00:41:30.560 Have I ever told you

00:41:31.520 before that the Democrats

00:41:32.560 are really the woman

00:41:33.540 party?

00:41:35.400 The woman party? 0.95

00:41:37.420 Now, you think of them

00:41:38.560 as, you know, the party

00:41:40.000 of LGBTQ and the party

00:41:42.420 of, you know, black

00:41:43.880 Americans and more

00:41:44.920 inclusiveness and, you

00:41:46.600 know, of course women. 1.00

00:41:47.560 But you don't think of

00:41:48.340 that as the lead

00:41:49.220 necessarily.

00:41:50.700 But in my opinion, the

00:41:53.600 women are running the 0.97

00:41:54.480 Democrat party and they've

00:41:56.220 started to paint the

00:41:57.640 Republicans as men.

00:41:59.120 And so here's a tweet

00:42:03.260 from, let's see, who

00:42:06.180 is this?

00:42:06.740 Midas Touch.

00:42:07.880 So this is a Democrat

00:42:09.260 group that tweets and

00:42:11.880 does other stuff.

00:42:13.760 And they're saying that

00:42:14.860 Republicans, they're

00:42:16.140 characterizing Republicans

00:42:17.300 this way as, quote,

00:42:18.860 we're going to make

00:42:19.680 women our property, turn 1.00

00:42:21.300 America into a 0.93

00:42:22.200 dictatorship and raise

00:42:23.320 the Nazi flag once

00:42:24.400 again.

00:42:24.860 That's Midas Touch,

00:42:25.960 right?

00:42:26.100 And they complain that

00:42:30.080 the media is complaining

00:42:32.340 about the price of gas

00:42:33.580 instead of talking

00:42:34.480 about how the

00:42:35.780 Republicans are trying

00:42:36.720 to make women their 1.00

00:42:38.560 property.

00:42:40.320 To which I say, you

00:42:43.020 know, Republicans can

00:42:45.080 be women.

00:42:47.240 Am I wrong?

00:42:49.040 I'm pretty sure

00:42:50.020 Republicans can actually

00:42:51.360 be women.

00:42:51.980 And, yeah, right here.

00:42:57.260 So it's amazing that

00:43:00.320 somebody who's a

00:43:01.460 Democrat actually, I

00:43:03.720 think, is admitting

00:43:04.720 that they see it this

00:43:05.660 way, that the Democrats

00:43:07.060 are the party of women

00:43:08.540 and the Republicans are

00:43:10.760 the party of men.

00:43:13.720 But are there more

00:43:16.260 Republican men than

00:43:18.540 women? 1.00

00:43:18.820 I don't even know that.

00:43:20.820 There might be.

00:43:21.800 Can somebody tell me

00:43:22.560 that?

00:43:23.180 If you just looked at

00:43:24.240 Republicans only, are

00:43:25.620 more of the voters

00:43:26.280 women or men? 0.99

00:43:27.140 Because there are more

00:43:27.660 women than men in 0.66

00:43:28.500 general, right?

00:43:32.320 Is there probably more

00:43:34.220 men because the, you

00:43:37.180 know, the philosophy

00:43:37.920 leans a little bit male,

00:43:39.100 it does.

00:43:41.200 Huh.

00:43:42.620 It's changing quickly.

00:43:44.360 Anyway, but my point

00:43:45.520 is, I do think that

00:43:47.280 the, somewhat

00:43:49.440 accidentally, the

00:43:51.260 Republicans have

00:43:52.080 become the parent

00:43:53.980 party and the

00:43:55.680 Democrats have

00:43:56.360 become the women 0.99

00:43:57.640 party.

00:43:58.800 Because I don't

00:43:59.720 think that the

00:44:00.340 Democrats can do

00:44:01.220 anything that women 1.00

00:44:02.360 don't agree with.

00:44:05.280 Here's your test.

00:44:09.040 I don't think the

00:44:10.200 Republicans can do

00:44:11.420 anything that women 1.00

00:44:13.480 don't agree with.

00:44:15.340 Could the Republicans

00:44:16.720 do things that black 1.00

00:44:18.040 voters don't agree

00:44:19.140 with?

00:44:20.360 Yes, they could.

00:44:21.780 They could.

00:44:22.980 Could they do

00:44:23.640 something that women 1.00

00:44:24.360 don't agree with?

00:44:26.060 Nope.

00:44:27.780 Not a chance.

00:44:29.460 Not a chance.

00:44:31.760 Am I right?

00:44:33.540 Right?

00:44:34.060 They wouldn't get

00:44:34.460 away with it.

00:44:35.220 Now, let's take the

00:44:36.180 same argument to the

00:44:37.140 Republicans.

00:44:38.840 Is there anything

00:44:40.180 that Republican males

00:44:42.480 would not want to

00:44:44.680 happen that could

00:44:45.500 happen because there

00:44:47.880 were enough other

00:44:48.420 people who wanted

00:44:49.000 it?

00:44:50.960 No.

00:44:51.700 Probably not.

00:44:54.400 I've got a feeling

00:44:55.320 that the Republican

00:44:56.000 Party does have a

00:44:58.260 male bias and that

00:45:00.860 the Democrat Party

00:45:02.340 does have a female

00:45:03.500 bias.

00:45:04.380 But the Republican

00:45:05.880 Party seems more

00:45:06.820 explicitly parental in

00:45:08.740 nature.

00:45:09.820 It's more about

00:45:10.660 adults.

00:45:11.120 It's an interesting

00:45:15.540 matchup.

00:45:16.180 Women versus 1.00

00:45:16.800 parents.

00:45:18.140 And you can see it

00:45:19.160 in so many ways.

00:45:21.860 Well, by more than

00:45:22.740 four to one margin,

00:45:23.820 according to

00:45:24.360 Rasmussen poll,

00:45:26.100 Americans say the 0.83

00:45:27.100 nation's problem with

00:45:27.880 opioid drugs,

00:45:29.520 fentanyl being the

00:45:30.440 worst of them,

00:45:31.340 is getting worse,

00:45:32.280 not better,

00:45:32.860 and they don't think

00:45:33.700 Biden is doing

00:45:34.880 enough.

00:45:35.220 So 44% of

00:45:37.280 Americans believe

00:45:39.900 that the crisis

00:45:40.680 has gotten worse,

00:45:42.600 and just 10%

00:45:44.200 think it's gotten

00:45:44.820 better.

00:45:45.760 How in the world

00:45:46.400 could anybody think

00:45:47.120 the opioid crisis

00:45:48.040 got better?

00:45:50.100 There's more

00:45:50.840 drugs?

00:45:53.060 10%.

00:45:53.620 Crazy.

00:45:57.220 Oh, another

00:45:57.740 16% are not

00:45:58.840 sure.

00:45:59.820 Oh, oh.

00:46:01.660 Let's see.

00:46:02.660 10% think the

00:46:03.760 opioid crisis is

00:46:04.780 getting better.

00:46:06.240 16% are not

00:46:07.580 sure.

00:46:09.340 The math at 10

00:46:10.600 plus is 16,

00:46:11.840 26, 26%,

00:46:13.580 nearly a quarter.

00:46:15.260 Hmm.

00:46:15.740 Huh.

00:46:16.540 About a quarter

00:46:17.900 of the country is

00:46:19.400 batshit fucking 0.88

00:46:20.320 stupid. 0.90

00:46:21.180 Huh.

00:46:21.920 Well, that's a

00:46:22.580 surprise.

00:46:26.940 All right.

00:46:28.800 So Biden's

00:46:29.740 failing on that.

00:46:32.660 And I think that

00:46:33.380 the, the,

00:46:34.780 here's a prediction

00:46:36.280 that I will bank

00:46:37.380 on.

00:46:38.660 You know how

00:46:39.380 follow the money

00:46:40.220 always explains

00:46:41.240 everything?

00:46:43.400 Right?

00:46:44.580 Follow the money

00:46:45.460 explains everything.

00:46:46.780 If you look at the

00:46:47.900 opioid and the

00:46:49.320 fentanyl situation,

00:46:51.040 follow the money

00:46:51.680 tells you exactly

00:46:52.500 what's going to

00:46:53.000 happen.

00:46:55.460 Number one,

00:46:56.980 there will be more

00:46:57.900 fentanyl shipped

00:46:58.680 into the country.

00:46:59.380 Why?

00:47:00.560 Why?

00:47:02.100 Why?

00:47:03.900 Because it makes

00:47:04.780 money.

00:47:06.200 So fentanyl

00:47:06.980 shipments in the

00:47:07.720 United States are

00:47:08.380 profitable.

00:47:09.860 Would you agree

00:47:10.880 that there will be

00:47:11.960 more of them?

00:47:13.200 Of course.

00:47:14.140 Of course.

00:47:14.840 So follow the money

00:47:15.800 guarantees there will

00:47:16.720 be more,

00:47:17.700 not less,

00:47:18.700 fentanyl coming into

00:47:19.640 the country.

00:47:20.840 Now,

00:47:22.180 have you heard of

00:47:22.920 this thing called

00:47:23.560 the military-industrial

00:47:25.020 complex?

00:47:25.440 We don't like it.

00:47:28.340 We wish it didn't

00:47:29.160 exist.

00:47:30.340 But it does exist.

00:47:32.280 It does exist.

00:47:33.500 And so you can't

00:47:34.120 ignore it.

00:47:35.660 And what would the

00:47:36.580 military-industrial

00:47:38.040 complex do if the

00:47:40.820 potential profit from

00:47:45.340 attacking the

00:47:46.060 cartels went from,

00:47:47.480 ah, it looks like

00:47:48.100 that would be a

00:47:48.780 smallish operation.

00:47:50.660 What if it goes to a

00:47:51.700 big operation?

00:47:53.620 Suddenly, the

00:47:54.760 military-industrial

00:47:55.420 complex says,

00:47:56.440 whoa, a new line of

00:47:57.440 business attacking the

00:47:58.940 cartels.

00:47:59.720 But it's got to be

00:48:00.400 big.

00:48:01.420 Like, the scale of it

00:48:02.620 has to be big enough

00:48:03.520 that the military-

00:48:05.020 industrial complex can

00:48:06.120 get interested.

00:48:07.480 Right?

00:48:07.720 It has to be big.

00:48:08.820 Otherwise, they don't

00:48:09.580 make enough money.

00:48:11.520 So the fentanyl

00:48:12.400 business will keep

00:48:13.240 getting bigger until

00:48:14.840 it crosses that line.

00:48:17.440 The moment it crosses

00:48:18.500 that line, the

00:48:20.160 military-industrial

00:48:21.080 complex is going to

00:48:22.020 have a trillion-dollar

00:48:23.160 payday.

00:48:24.140 Because they're going

00:48:24.820 to say, you know,

00:48:25.740 we're going to have

00:48:26.320 to sell you some

00:48:26.920 really expensive

00:48:27.680 weapons to take

00:48:28.680 out those cartels 0.66

00:48:29.760 and to guard the

00:48:30.900 border or whatever

00:48:31.580 we decide to do.

00:48:33.020 So the two things

00:48:34.020 that you can guarantee

00:48:34.840 is that there will be

00:48:35.680 more fentanyl coming

00:48:36.680 in until the problem

00:48:38.100 is so bad that the

00:48:39.940 military-industrial

00:48:40.960 complex sees a huge

00:48:42.140 profit, at which

00:48:43.860 point they will

00:48:44.540 vaporize.

00:48:46.080 It'll take a few

00:48:46.960 years because you

00:48:47.620 need to spread that

00:48:48.480 profit out.

00:48:49.640 But they will

00:48:50.360 vaporize the cartels.

00:48:51.680 There isn't any

00:48:53.780 other way this can

00:48:54.540 go because of

00:48:56.700 money, right?

00:48:58.020 Now, the cartels

00:48:58.900 will try to make

00:48:59.880 enough money to,

00:49:00.760 like, you know,

00:49:02.020 change something.

00:49:03.840 But money guarantees

00:49:06.060 that the cartels

00:49:08.080 will be vaporized.

00:49:10.300 Am I wrong?

00:49:12.060 It's just not

00:49:12.920 profitable to do

00:49:14.080 it yet.

00:49:15.220 But it's getting

00:49:15.780 close.

00:49:16.220 Let's say when

00:49:18.840 fentanyl deaths

00:49:19.540 reach 200,000 a

00:49:20.860 year, which should

00:49:22.800 be in a year or

00:49:23.600 two, maybe five

00:49:25.040 years.

00:49:25.980 But there isn't

00:49:27.200 any chance it's

00:49:28.000 not going to

00:49:28.480 happen.

00:49:29.800 We'll get to,

00:49:30.640 you know, a

00:49:31.040 quarter million

00:49:31.620 deaths a year,

00:49:32.920 and then the

00:49:33.600 military and the

00:49:36.420 people who make

00:49:37.080 money from selling

00:49:37.860 military equipment

00:49:38.620 will say, well,

00:49:39.780 we could take care

00:49:40.440 of that for a

00:49:40.920 trillion dollars,

00:49:42.200 and then we'll

00:49:42.800 pay a trillion

00:49:43.380 dollars, and then

00:49:44.140 we'll go vaporize

00:49:45.080 the cartels.

00:49:46.220 Do you think

00:49:49.960 I'm wrong?

00:49:51.260 There's no other

00:49:52.200 way this can go.

00:49:53.860 I don't see any

00:49:54.960 force from anywhere,

00:49:56.720 any variable,

00:49:58.080 that would change

00:49:58.680 the guaranteed

00:49:59.440 direction that we

00:50:00.780 will attack Mexico. 0.93

00:50:02.680 Guaranteed.

00:50:05.840 Now, should we

00:50:06.880 attack China, 0.99

00:50:07.740 because they're

00:50:08.500 sending us the

00:50:09.860 drugs?

00:50:10.980 Now, I don't

00:50:11.340 know if you know

00:50:11.840 how China gets

00:50:12.680 away with it.

00:50:14.200 So, President

00:50:15.100 Xi said, yes,

00:50:16.080 we'll make

00:50:16.720 fentanyl, and

00:50:19.260 the precursors to

00:50:20.740 fentanyl, we'll

00:50:21.320 make them illegal,

00:50:23.340 so, you know,

00:50:24.800 that's good, right?

00:50:25.900 We'll make that

00:50:26.420 illegal in China.

00:50:28.000 But what they

00:50:28.840 didn't do is make

00:50:30.500 all the variants

00:50:31.380 illegal.

00:50:32.240 So the fentanyl

00:50:33.080 precursor people,

00:50:34.380 they just changed

00:50:35.220 the formula a little

00:50:36.100 bit, it's just as

00:50:37.420 bad, but it's not

00:50:38.860 technically the thing

00:50:39.900 that got banned.

00:50:41.440 Now, let me ask you

00:50:42.260 this.

00:50:43.080 Do you think China

00:50:43.800 can't figure out how

00:50:44.600 to solve that

00:50:45.080 problem?

00:50:46.400 That their law is

00:50:47.600 not including enough

00:50:49.020 stuff?

00:50:50.160 Can't figure that

00:50:50.880 out, right?

00:50:51.740 Do you think they

00:50:52.320 care if their law

00:50:53.140 doesn't cover those

00:50:54.780 things?

00:50:55.280 No, they don't care.

00:50:56.480 If they wanted to

00:50:57.360 stop it, they would

00:50:59.300 just go arrest the

00:51:00.200 guy who's in charge.

00:51:01.100 They wouldn't care

00:51:03.020 about which, you

00:51:04.320 know, which

00:51:04.700 precursors are

00:51:06.000 illegal or legal.

00:51:07.600 They would just go

00:51:08.660 arrest the motherfucker 0.99

00:51:09.540 if they didn't want

00:51:10.620 it to keep happening.

00:51:12.260 Obviously, obviously,

00:51:14.400 the leadership wants

00:51:15.320 it to continue.

00:51:17.060 It's too easy to stop.

00:51:18.820 So, obviously,

00:51:19.720 they want it.

00:51:21.580 What should we do

00:51:22.560 if China is sending

00:51:23.980 precursors, essentially

00:51:25.260 military equipment,

00:51:26.580 to the cartels who

00:51:28.160 are killing Americans?

00:51:29.500 Well, I don't think

00:51:30.640 you want to start a

00:51:31.240 nuclear war.

00:51:32.080 I don't think you

00:51:32.680 want to invade.

00:51:34.180 But we need to kill

00:51:35.280 the dealers on the

00:51:36.080 ground.

00:51:37.380 You can't tell me

00:51:38.360 that we can't find

00:51:39.120 anybody in China

00:51:40.140 that we could bribe

00:51:41.140 to go kill those

00:51:42.220 fentanyl producers.

00:51:44.300 We can't do a

00:51:45.200 terrorist act in China.

00:51:47.280 We can't set a bomb

00:51:48.460 next to a factory

00:51:49.800 in China.

00:51:51.060 We don't have anybody

00:51:51.900 in China who has

00:51:52.640 that ability to

00:51:53.980 blow something up.

00:51:56.140 We should be,

00:51:57.300 those should be

00:51:58.060 exploding.

00:51:59.360 Maybe it is.

00:51:59.960 I mean, maybe

00:52:00.720 somebody is, but

00:52:01.480 we should definitely

00:52:03.760 be attacking China 0.93

00:52:05.120 covertly to destroy

00:52:08.060 the fentanyl

00:52:08.600 production.

00:52:11.180 Would that trigger

00:52:12.100 a world war,

00:52:13.320 a nuclear war?

00:52:16.560 Well, that's the

00:52:17.980 risk that China's 1.00

00:52:18.700 going to have to

00:52:19.080 take, isn't it?

00:52:20.580 If China wants to 0.70

00:52:21.600 kill a quarter

00:52:22.120 million of us a

00:52:23.000 year, which is

00:52:23.880 where it's going to

00:52:24.420 go to, then they

00:52:26.000 need to risk nuclear

00:52:27.120 war.

00:52:27.420 They need to.

00:52:29.440 Right.

00:52:30.360 So, yes, that is

00:52:31.780 the risk that they

00:52:32.420 should be looking at

00:52:33.200 very directly.

00:52:38.940 All right.

00:52:42.200 Let's see.

00:52:43.060 We've got some more

00:52:43.780 gaslighting keeping

00:52:44.740 going on here.

00:52:45.880 I don't know if it's

00:52:49.620 just me, but when I

00:52:51.260 heard Biden talking

00:52:52.300 about, again, the

00:52:54.620 insurrection that

00:52:55.900 Trump ran, here's

00:52:58.020 what I hear.

00:52:59.320 Every time Biden, the

00:53:01.440 elected leader of the

00:53:02.340 United States, uses the

00:53:03.920 word insurrection, my

00:53:06.560 mind imagines people

00:53:07.880 who look a lot like me

00:53:09.180 going to jail for

00:53:10.340 nothing.

00:53:10.620 Like, I can't, I

00:53:13.520 can't unpair those two

00:53:14.680 things.

00:53:15.980 Every time he uses the

00:53:17.220 word insurrection, I

00:53:19.080 see him trying to put me

00:53:20.340 in jail for nothing.

00:53:22.480 And I think I made a

00:53:25.560 turn today because it's

00:53:27.440 one thing for him to say

00:53:28.580 insurrection before the

00:53:30.220 January 6th hearings have

00:53:31.500 concluded.

00:53:32.900 It's another thing to keep

00:53:34.340 saying insurrection when

00:53:35.500 his own hearings, I'll say

00:53:37.660 it's his own, have shown

00:53:39.560 that there was no

00:53:40.540 insurrection, or planned

00:53:42.180 insurrection, or actual

00:53:43.300 insurrection.

00:53:45.100 Once it's been debunked,

00:53:47.360 if he comes on television

00:53:48.860 and says it again, he is

00:53:50.220 targeting me.

00:53:51.980 That's how I feel.

00:53:53.920 And if my president

00:53:55.560 targets me, a law-abiding

00:53:59.140 voter who just has maybe

00:54:01.360 different opinions, if he's

00:54:03.280 targeting me, and that's

00:54:04.300 what I feel, then he's my

00:54:05.920 enemy.

00:54:06.860 He's not my president

00:54:08.000 anymore.

00:54:08.420 Now, it would be one

00:54:10.020 thing if I were breaking

00:54:11.020 the law.

00:54:12.680 Yeah, if your government

00:54:13.660 targets you because you

00:54:14.640 broke the law, well,

00:54:16.500 that's on you.

00:54:18.580 But he's targeting me for

00:54:20.220 something specifically that

00:54:21.740 we know I didn't break

00:54:23.600 any laws.

00:54:24.880 I mean, he's putting me in

00:54:25.620 the same boat with

00:54:27.080 anybody who thought that

00:54:29.240 the January 6th thing was

00:54:30.660 not so bad.

00:54:32.380 The violence was bad.

00:54:33.960 But in terms of it being

00:54:35.140 an insurrection versus a

00:54:36.560 protest, right?

00:54:39.500 I'm taking this personally

00:54:40.860 from now on.

00:54:43.120 Before the January 6th

00:54:44.720 group debunked the

00:54:46.300 insurrection charge, I was

00:54:48.160 willing to let that stand as

00:54:49.700 well, who knows?

00:54:51.160 But now that it's debunked,

00:54:53.240 this is personal.

00:54:54.160 And this is Biden against

00:54:56.400 citizens.

00:54:59.160 It's against Republicans,

00:55:01.120 basically.

00:55:02.040 And this is the thing that

00:55:03.460 Democrats continue to do.

00:55:05.420 They're not targeting policy or

00:55:07.320 preferences.

00:55:07.960 They're targeting people.

00:55:10.260 And this is a dark term, yeah.

00:55:12.640 So that whole dark thing,

00:55:14.960 shark eyes.

00:55:16.300 Yeah, Biden did have shark

00:55:18.560 eyes.

00:55:19.320 Like, I saw that too.

00:55:20.560 There's something wrong with

00:55:21.320 his eyes.

00:55:23.480 But it does feel like the

00:55:24.900 precursor to hunting

00:55:26.480 Republicans.

00:55:28.520 And so let me say this.

00:55:29.920 I don't feel Biden is even a

00:55:32.500 president at this point.

00:55:34.340 He's just a malign force.

00:55:36.500 Because I don't think he's

00:55:37.560 capable of doing the job.

00:55:38.940 Who knows what's behind it.

00:55:41.540 But, ah, this is personal now.

00:55:45.900 So I want the Republicans,

00:55:47.840 the Democrats to know that

00:55:50.700 they're walking up to a line.

00:55:53.540 And they've already crossed the

00:55:55.340 line of making it personal.

00:55:58.140 But let me say this as menacingly

00:56:00.300 as I possibly can.

00:56:02.500 There's another line.

00:56:04.680 And you're getting really

00:56:05.880 fucking close to it.

00:56:07.080 Do you hear that?

00:56:11.580 There's another line.

00:56:13.780 There is another line.

00:56:15.780 You know what I'm talking

00:56:16.720 about.

00:56:17.640 There's another line, and you're

00:56:19.140 getting really fucking close to

00:56:20.740 it.

00:56:21.420 And if I didn't warn you how

00:56:23.320 fucking close you are to that

00:56:24.800 line, I would feel that I was not

00:56:26.980 doing my job as a patriot.

00:56:30.060 You're really fucking close to the

00:56:32.080 line.

00:56:33.280 You better back up.

00:56:34.940 Back the fuck up.

00:56:37.080 It's okay if you make this just

00:56:38.940 political.

00:56:40.380 Political is okay.

00:56:42.280 We're all used to that.

00:56:44.640 You can lie.

00:56:45.900 That's political.

00:56:48.140 But when you start painting half

00:56:51.620 of the country as insurrectionists,

00:56:55.360 that's a line you need to back the

00:56:57.300 fuck up off of. 0.65

00:56:58.620 Okay?

00:56:59.560 And we need to be as clear about

00:57:02.360 this as possible.

00:57:04.600 Lying is okay. 1.00

00:57:05.520 I mean, we accept it.

00:57:06.920 It's not okay, but we accept it.

00:57:09.280 Politics is good.

00:57:10.620 Words.

00:57:11.440 Words are good.

00:57:12.260 Fighting hard.

00:57:13.660 You know, trying to game the

00:57:14.660 system.

00:57:15.680 It's all okay.

00:57:17.900 But you're getting really close to

00:57:21.720 the line.

00:57:23.200 And his last speech was dark and

00:57:26.720 chilling and directed as citizens,

00:57:29.260 in my opinion.

00:57:30.500 That's how I took it.

00:57:31.520 I took it directed as citizens.

00:57:34.420 You direct your shit as citizens

00:57:36.820 who are law-abiding and were trying

00:57:40.700 to do the right thing.

00:57:41.680 I'm positive.

00:57:42.860 I think January 6th was people

00:57:44.240 trying to do the right thing.

00:57:46.100 They didn't.

00:57:48.020 But I think they tried.

00:57:51.320 But I don't know how I can say this

00:57:53.180 more carefully.

00:57:54.480 There is a line.

00:57:56.480 Back the fuck off it.

00:57:57.800 Are you with me?

00:58:01.960 Is this just me?

00:58:04.000 You see the line, too, right?

00:58:07.060 Don't pretend there's no line.

00:58:09.100 There's a fucking line.

00:58:11.240 And back the fuck off it.

00:58:13.940 And when I say back the fuck off it,

00:58:16.180 I mean with the insurrection talk.

00:58:18.840 You need to correct that, Mr. Joe

00:58:21.360 Biden and Mr. Democrats.

00:58:23.700 This isn't play.

00:58:24.620 You've been in the political play field,

00:58:30.700 and that's okay.

00:58:32.220 A little bit of play, hyperbole,

00:58:34.840 even a little line.

00:58:36.000 It's all part of the political process.

00:58:37.940 That's good.

00:58:38.760 As long as you're talking politics,

00:58:40.860 as long as you're insulting politicians,

00:58:43.760 you could even, you know,

00:58:44.800 I don't even mind if you make some

00:58:46.080 general statements about Republicans

00:58:48.640 or general statements about Democrats.

00:58:51.260 That's fine.

00:58:52.260 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:58:53.000 Yeah, all the Democrats are socialists.

00:58:55.420 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:58:55.960 All the Republicans are, you know,

00:58:58.000 want to control women. 1.00

00:59:00.100 Whatever.

00:59:00.620 That's fine.

00:59:01.480 That's all fine.

00:59:03.300 But you have to know,

00:59:05.900 there's a fucking line, 0.93

00:59:07.940 and if you don't see it,

00:59:10.680 don't say you weren't warned.

00:59:13.260 Right?

00:59:14.160 You make this personal,

00:59:16.560 you better back the fuck up. 0.92

00:59:19.400 So that's all I'm saying.

00:59:20.840 Somebody needed to say it.

00:59:21.940 All right, that's about it.

00:59:31.880 That's about it.

00:59:36.180 All right.

00:59:40.260 Yeah, I don't even care about the hypocrisy.

00:59:43.680 Right?

00:59:44.240 You know, there's just a whole bunch of stuff

00:59:45.980 that's okay,

00:59:47.600 just because historically,

00:59:48.860 we've allowed that in politics.

00:59:51.240 Yeah, you know,

00:59:51.660 the hypocrisy,

00:59:52.640 the lying,

00:59:53.300 the hyperbole,

00:59:54.420 the dirty tricks,

00:59:56.500 the, you know,

00:59:57.880 the scheming,

00:59:59.540 the fake news.

01:00:00.580 That's okay.

01:00:01.860 Yeah, we're used to that.

01:00:03.600 But just make sure you know

01:00:05.180 where the line is.

01:00:09.640 All right.

01:00:10.140 All right.

01:00:10.180 You want an insurrection?

01:00:15.520 I'll give you an insurrection.

01:00:18.820 Yeah, CNN headline.

01:00:20.000 Right-wing cartoonist calls for civil war.

01:00:22.520 Well, I'm calling to avoid a civil war

01:00:24.660 is what I'm calling.

01:00:26.340 And I'm saying that,

01:00:28.120 you know that slippery slope thing

01:00:31.360 I keep talking about?

01:00:32.220 where I'm usually debunking it,

01:00:35.820 but then changing my mind halfway through.

01:00:41.220 Democrats can push.

01:00:43.480 Now, let me ask you this.

01:00:47.040 Do you have the same feeling I do

01:00:50.640 that it feels like Democrats

01:00:54.500 are people who complain about everything

01:00:56.680 no matter how small,

01:00:57.820 and Republicans are people

01:01:00.860 who are okay

01:01:02.760 until they're not okay?

01:01:05.740 That could be just

01:01:06.640 I'm reading my own personality

01:01:08.180 into some things.

01:01:10.280 It feels like that, right?

01:01:11.640 And here would be the blind spot.

01:01:14.200 The blind spot would be

01:01:15.440 if Democrats

01:01:16.120 are looking at Republicans

01:01:18.100 and they're not seeing

01:01:19.160 as much complaining

01:01:20.780 as they would expect.

01:01:23.020 Because if the Democrats

01:01:24.660 were in that position,

01:01:25.920 you'd see lots of complaining.

01:01:27.820 The lack of complaining

01:01:29.820 from the Republicans

01:01:31.760 should not make you feel comfortable.

01:01:36.100 Right?

01:01:38.120 You feel me, right?

01:01:39.840 The lack of complaining

01:01:41.340 from Republicans

01:01:42.300 about the way they're being treated

01:01:43.660 should not be taken as comfort.

01:01:48.180 Because Republicans are okay

01:01:51.060 with things until they're not.

01:01:54.140 Democrats are just mad

01:01:55.500 all the time about everything

01:01:56.620 because the way they get resources

01:01:58.400 is by complaining.

01:02:01.220 How do men get resources

01:02:04.420 in the traditional,

01:02:06.440 let's say,

01:02:07.040 the sexist world?

01:02:08.780 They go work, right?

01:02:10.340 They get a job,

01:02:10.980 they go work.

01:02:11.800 How do women get resources 1.00

01:02:13.400 in our sexist world?

01:02:14.760 Again, lots of exceptions,

01:02:16.360 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:02:17.180 How do women get resources? 1.00

01:02:19.520 By making men feel bad.

01:02:22.240 Complaining.

01:02:22.640 Sorry, that's how it works.

01:02:26.740 You know that.

01:02:29.380 Don't give me any trouble with this

01:02:30.760 because you know it's true.

01:02:31.840 You know it's true.

01:02:33.200 Now, if I said that's true

01:02:34.900 of every woman,

01:02:35.780 I'd be lying.

01:02:37.300 And if I said that's true

01:02:38.320 of every man,

01:02:39.200 I'd be lying.

01:02:40.420 And if I said the world

01:02:41.480 were only men and women,

01:02:43.480 well, I think that

01:02:44.880 that also is too simplistic

01:02:47.520 because you've got

01:02:48.740 lots of gender ambiguity.

01:02:53.820 Yeah, some people's wives 1.00

01:02:56.180 are the boss of the family.

01:02:57.620 So plenty of exceptions.

01:02:59.900 But when I say

01:03:00.580 that the Democrat Party

01:03:01.780 is sort of the woman party, 0.77

01:03:05.200 complaining is their operating system.

01:03:08.440 That if you complain enough,

01:03:09.780 you'll get some stuff.

01:03:12.300 The Republicans are more like,

01:03:14.080 if we have a good system,

01:03:16.940 we'll all get better stuff.

01:03:19.660 You see the difference?

01:03:20.880 It's a complaint-based

01:03:22.220 operating system

01:03:23.180 versus a, let's say,

01:03:25.760 a system or machine-based thing.

01:03:28.560 Like, if you make the machine work,

01:03:30.280 we all get good stuff.

01:03:31.680 So let's work on the machine.

01:03:33.860 And the Democrats are more like,

01:03:35.960 if I complain enough,

01:03:37.500 I can get some of your stuff.

01:03:40.300 So one of them is based

01:03:41.640 on an abundance mindset.

01:03:44.080 I'll go work.

01:03:45.360 I'll create a system

01:03:46.180 that makes more for everybody.

01:03:47.620 And the other is based

01:03:48.560 on a shortages mindset.

01:03:51.220 That you've got some stuff.

01:03:53.060 I don't have some stuff.

01:03:54.200 I need to get your stuff from you.

01:03:55.800 And it goes to me.

01:03:57.160 You know, a transfer.

01:04:00.360 Now,

01:04:01.600 is there a difference

01:04:03.820 between men and women 0.90

01:04:05.480 in hunting versus gathering?

01:04:11.180 I'm way out of my depth here,

01:04:12.580 so I'm just speculating.

01:04:14.080 Is it true that historically

01:04:16.060 the men did the hunting

01:04:17.160 and the women did the gathering? 1.00

01:04:20.620 Yeah.

01:04:21.440 The hunting is you go out

01:04:22.560 and make something happen.

01:04:24.460 And the gathering is you

01:04:26.100 find things.

01:04:29.040 You find it.

01:04:31.180 You just find it.

01:04:32.200 And I think that the Democrats

01:04:36.380 being sort of a woman-dominated party

01:04:39.580 are all about,

01:04:41.540 well, we don't have to make things.

01:04:43.460 We just need to find them.

01:04:45.400 And I found it.

01:04:46.320 It's in your pocket.

01:04:47.660 Hey, I found some money.

01:04:48.800 It's over there

01:04:49.320 in Elon Musk's pocket.

01:04:51.420 Well, problem solved.

01:04:53.180 I need some money.

01:04:54.780 There's some money

01:04:55.340 in Elon Musk's pocket.

01:04:56.720 So let's put those together

01:05:01.340 and problem solved.

01:05:03.100 Right?

01:05:03.720 There's a very big

01:05:05.380 philosophical difference

01:05:06.820 between hunting and killing.

01:05:09.340 I'm sorry,

01:05:09.840 between hunting and finding.

01:05:12.900 Very big.

01:05:14.500 And I feel like

01:05:15.140 the Republicans are hunters

01:05:16.780 and the Democrats are finders.

01:05:19.880 They're gatherers.

01:05:20.800 Now, again,

01:05:24.480 huge number

01:05:25.640 of individual differences.

01:05:28.420 I feel like

01:05:29.240 I can only say that

01:05:30.180 to Republicans

01:05:30.800 and get away with it.

01:05:33.260 I can say,

01:05:34.340 well, there's a general thing

01:05:35.420 going on here,

01:05:36.440 but you all understand

01:05:37.860 there's tons and tons

01:05:39.060 of individual exceptions.

01:05:40.720 And then the Republicans

01:05:41.960 all go,

01:05:42.680 well, that's true.

01:05:43.940 Yeah, you're talking

01:05:44.760 about a general thing,

01:05:45.920 but of course

01:05:46.660 there are plenty of exceptions.

01:05:48.300 What do the Democrats

01:05:49.240 do when you say that?

01:05:51.700 You racist.

01:05:53.400 I go, no, no, no.

01:05:54.380 You sexist.

01:05:56.100 No, no, no.

01:05:56.540 I'm saying there's

01:05:57.220 plenty of exceptions.

01:05:59.020 And we respect

01:06:00.320 all the exceptions equally.

01:06:02.840 Well, you bigot.

01:06:04.820 I'm really just talking

01:06:05.860 about a general theme here.

01:06:07.200 I'm not talking

01:06:07.680 about any individual.

01:06:09.640 You misogynist.

01:06:13.160 So that's the way

01:06:14.000 it works on the left.

01:06:15.700 On the right,

01:06:16.640 you can handle the fact

01:06:18.080 that individuals

01:06:18.860 can be different

01:06:19.700 than the average.

01:06:20.800 Apparently that's a concept

01:06:24.560 that's not universally

01:06:25.520 understood.

01:06:29.400 Somebody says

01:06:30.140 that has a very funny

01:06:31.420 female joke 1.00

01:06:32.300 that's extremely sexist

01:06:33.780 and you can't say it.

01:06:35.300 Well, why did you

01:06:36.000 announce it?

01:06:37.900 Don't announce a joke

01:06:39.180 you're not going

01:06:39.640 to tell us.

01:06:40.940 Let me introduce you

01:06:42.140 to the humor rule.

01:06:45.480 The humor rule

01:06:47.720 goes like this.

01:06:49.080 You can't tell me

01:06:50.000 there's a joke

01:06:50.580 you can't tell me.

01:06:52.160 You can either

01:06:52.940 not mention it

01:06:53.820 or you can tell me

01:06:54.740 the joke.

01:06:55.820 Those are the rules.

01:06:56.760 I didn't make them up.

01:06:58.280 I did not make them up.

01:07:01.280 But I would not

01:07:02.680 encourage you

01:07:03.220 to say that joke

01:07:03.900 on YouTube.

01:07:04.820 If this were

01:07:08.740 the locals platform

01:07:09.780 they could tell

01:07:10.420 that joke.

01:07:11.140 Do you know why?

01:07:12.060 Because people

01:07:12.580 on the locals platform

01:07:13.580 would know

01:07:14.160 it's a joke.

01:07:16.340 That's the difference.

01:07:18.040 And they'd say

01:07:18.420 oh, okay,

01:07:19.160 that's insulting

01:07:20.200 but it's pretty funny.

01:07:22.820 On the locals

01:07:23.640 people insult me

01:07:24.600 all the time

01:07:25.060 but if it's funny

01:07:25.860 that's fine.

01:07:27.160 if it's funny.

01:07:31.520 All right.

01:07:35.600 You're saying

01:07:36.240 gathering and hunting

01:07:37.220 are both harvesting.

01:07:40.020 Yeah,

01:07:40.600 I feel the difference.

01:07:42.520 I see what you're saying.

01:07:43.980 You're using a word

01:07:44.960 to change the argument.

01:07:46.720 Don't use words

01:07:48.020 to change my argument.

01:07:49.120 You know

01:07:49.360 what I'm talking about.

01:07:53.240 All right.

01:07:55.500 I haven't seen

01:07:56.440 any big California fires.

01:07:58.160 Somebody was asking me.

01:07:59.620 It's possible

01:08:00.500 that California

01:08:01.220 has figured out

01:08:01.920 how to stop

01:08:02.440 the big fires

01:08:03.180 because they now

01:08:04.360 have that emergency

01:08:05.220 helicopter brigade

01:08:06.360 that gets on stuff

01:08:07.660 quickly

01:08:08.000 and works at night.

01:08:09.480 Now they can

01:08:09.920 operate at night

01:08:10.660 as well.

01:08:12.360 Is Yosemite on fire?

01:08:16.800 Okay.

01:08:17.580 Well,

01:08:17.780 it's not nearly

01:08:19.020 as bad

01:08:19.740 as it used to be.

01:08:20.400 Our air quality

01:08:21.080 is actually good

01:08:21.720 where I am.

01:08:23.220 All right.

01:08:23.560 Well,

01:08:23.680 I hope they get

01:08:24.160 that Yosemite fire

01:08:25.000 under control.

01:08:26.440 All right.

01:08:34.780 All right.

01:08:35.260 I'll catch up

01:08:36.020 on the Yosemite fire.

01:08:37.020 I haven't seen

01:08:37.340 anything about that yet.

01:08:41.880 Yeah,

01:08:42.400 we're going to smoke

01:08:43.000 from the Yosemite fire

01:08:43.960 as we...

01:08:44.960 Really?

01:08:48.720 All right.

01:08:49.960 So I guess

01:08:50.480 I didn't know

01:08:50.920 about the Yosemite fire.

01:08:52.040 I'll take a look

01:08:52.580 at that.

01:08:53.080 There's an Oakland fire.

01:08:53.940 There's an Oakland fire.

01:08:53.960 Did California

01:08:57.220 clear the underbrush?

01:08:58.440 You know,

01:08:58.840 I didn't hear

01:08:59.320 anything about that.

01:09:03.960 But I also don't know,

01:09:05.260 is there any use

01:09:06.000 for underbrush?

01:09:08.420 Is there any way

01:09:09.180 you can monetize

01:09:10.300 underbrush?

01:09:11.880 Can you collect

01:09:12.720 enough of it

01:09:13.320 to turn it

01:09:13.780 into anything?

01:09:14.780 Can you turn it

01:09:15.400 into some biofuel?

01:09:16.900 You can do

01:09:17.340 a biomass thing,

01:09:18.340 right?

01:09:20.760 Mulch. 0.94

01:09:22.980 Fertilizer.

01:09:23.340 Does it work

01:09:24.560 as fertilizer?

01:09:29.040 Underbrush makes

01:09:29.680 the soil of the forest.

01:09:32.340 Yeah.

01:09:33.300 Well,

01:09:34.780 yeah,

01:09:35.260 I guess they do

01:09:35.760 need soil,

01:09:36.400 but do they always

01:09:36.980 need more

01:09:37.520 if you have enough

01:09:38.440 for a tree?

01:09:46.340 Oh,

01:09:46.780 the oak fires out?

01:09:48.640 All right.

01:09:49.360 What about Zelensky?

01:09:50.440 Zelensky.

01:09:53.780 All right.

01:09:54.340 I think that's all

01:09:54.940 we've got for today.

01:09:56.020 And I believe

01:09:56.620 that we've done

01:09:57.180 our job.

01:09:58.800 Is this the best

01:10:00.260 live stream

01:10:00.940 you've ever seen?

01:10:03.140 Am I mistaken?

01:10:04.440 Or does it look

01:10:06.040 exactly like it is?

01:10:07.200 It is.

01:10:07.900 It is.

01:10:09.440 And let me ask you

01:10:10.340 something.

01:10:10.640 So good,

01:10:14.880 it hurts.

01:10:19.760 Let me ask you

01:10:20.640 something.

01:10:22.700 Do you think

01:10:23.340 we make a difference?

01:10:24.800 Like,

01:10:25.280 collectively?

01:10:26.800 So,

01:10:27.340 I would have,

01:10:27.880 you know,

01:10:28.140 no impact on anything

01:10:29.180 if I didn't have

01:10:29.980 an audience.

01:10:31.480 So,

01:10:31.900 the audience

01:10:32.360 basically,

01:10:33.540 you know,

01:10:34.540 imbues me

01:10:35.200 with whatever

01:10:35.760 energy I have.

01:10:37.080 I think we do.

01:10:39.800 I think we do.

01:10:40.840 Because I think

01:10:41.580 we're approaching

01:10:43.040 the point

01:10:43.780 where if

01:10:45.660 you and I,

01:10:46.840 collectively,

01:10:47.500 all of you,

01:10:48.540 plural,

01:10:49.520 if you and I

01:10:50.300 collectively

01:10:50.860 thought something

01:10:51.980 was a terrible,

01:10:52.960 terrible idea,

01:10:54.440 I feel like it would

01:10:55.320 be harder for

01:10:56.000 our government

01:10:56.440 to do it.

01:10:57.080 just because,

01:10:58.820 you know,

01:10:59.720 our opinions

01:11:00.300 do have enough

01:11:01.500 of a reach

01:11:02.760 that it would

01:11:04.220 be embarrassing

01:11:04.920 to do something

01:11:05.720 that was just

01:11:06.180 a bad idea

01:11:06.920 and had been

01:11:07.820 clearly described

01:11:09.380 as a bad idea.

01:11:11.180 So,

01:11:11.760 clarity is one

01:11:12.540 of the things

01:11:12.940 I feel like

01:11:13.820 we can add

01:11:14.420 to the system.

01:11:15.760 What do you think?

01:11:16.900 Maybe that's

01:11:17.380 the only thing.

01:11:18.280 Maybe the only thing

01:11:19.140 I add to the system

01:11:19.960 is clarity

01:11:20.560 and context.

01:11:21.940 Because that's

01:11:22.520 all I'm trying

01:11:23.000 to do.

01:11:24.100 I'm trying

01:11:24.720 to only add

01:11:25.440 clarity and context.

01:11:26.580 If I add

01:11:27.560 clarity and context,

01:11:29.520 you should come

01:11:30.760 to the same

01:11:31.260 conclusion as me.

01:11:34.040 So,

01:11:34.520 I'm not trying

01:11:34.920 to necessarily

01:11:35.800 change your mind

01:11:37.360 with argument.

01:11:40.060 I'm trying

01:11:40.600 to make sure

01:11:41.040 that you see

01:11:41.600 the same things

01:11:42.260 I see.

01:11:43.680 And once you see

01:11:44.420 them,

01:11:44.780 I'm confident

01:11:45.320 that you will

01:11:45.940 end up with

01:11:46.440 the same opinion.

01:11:47.220 So,

01:11:47.400 I don't need

01:11:47.700 to directly

01:11:48.200 change your opinion.

01:11:49.580 I'll just change

01:11:50.260 what things

01:11:50.800 you've been exposed to

01:11:51.880 and it should be

01:11:52.340 the same thing.

01:11:53.620 It should be.

01:11:54.840 Not every time,

01:11:55.780 but it should be

01:11:56.220 in the long run.

01:12:01.340 Scott,

01:12:01.820 would you do

01:12:02.220 your own show

01:12:02.860 on Fox

01:12:03.540 if offered?

01:12:05.640 No.

01:12:07.440 No,

01:12:07.860 I wouldn't.

01:12:09.980 See,

01:12:10.420 the trouble is

01:12:10.860 as soon as

01:12:11.340 you get a boss,

01:12:12.880 you're useless.

01:12:14.500 You all get that,

01:12:15.200 right?

01:12:15.720 The moment I have

01:12:16.660 a boss,

01:12:17.960 I'm worthless.

01:12:20.200 Because then

01:12:20.680 it's just the boss.

01:12:21.640 The only thing

01:12:22.260 you know you're hearing

01:12:23.160 is what the boss

01:12:23.940 allowed me to say.

01:12:24.820 Do you think

01:12:26.080 there's anything

01:12:26.560 I said today

01:12:27.260 that a boss

01:12:27.840 would have let me say?

01:12:29.240 Just think about

01:12:30.020 today's show.

01:12:31.600 Think about the

01:12:32.260 live stream

01:12:33.020 you just watched.

01:12:34.100 How much of that

01:12:35.040 do you think

01:12:36.480 I could have put

01:12:37.040 on a network show

01:12:38.240 or even a cable show?

01:12:39.640 Almost none of it,

01:12:40.500 right?

01:12:41.360 And I certainly

01:12:42.380 couldn't do

01:12:42.860 the level

01:12:44.680 of emotion.

01:12:46.560 I would have

01:12:47.100 a set time limit

01:12:48.860 and I guarantee you

01:12:50.760 that I would have

01:12:51.400 conversations

01:12:52.040 about offending

01:12:52.860 my sponsors.

01:12:55.080 Well, first of all,

01:12:55.740 who would sponsor

01:12:56.360 this?

01:12:58.700 I would probably

01:12:59.780 already have

01:13:00.620 sponsor offers,

01:13:01.860 even with this

01:13:02.740 size of an audience.

01:13:03.900 I would already

01:13:04.600 have sponsor offers

01:13:05.720 if this were not

01:13:06.640 absolute poison

01:13:07.580 to sponsors.

01:13:09.100 So one of the things

01:13:10.040 that I can offer you

01:13:11.180 is that I will

01:13:12.420 continue to be

01:13:13.380 poisoned to sponsors.

01:13:15.500 I'm not trying

01:13:16.420 to do that,

01:13:17.480 but apparently

01:13:18.380 if you're honest,

01:13:19.140 you can't get

01:13:19.880 sponsored.

01:13:21.140 Because the sponsors

01:13:22.160 need you to be

01:13:23.160 just generic

01:13:24.940 and family friendly

01:13:26.100 and stay on

01:13:28.000 the political

01:13:28.660 right side of things.

01:13:31.460 So I'm not

01:13:32.960 trying to do that.

01:13:35.060 ED products.

01:13:38.780 All right.

01:13:40.020 Yeah, it's hard

01:13:40.900 to speculate

01:13:41.520 under a major brand.

01:13:42.740 You're right.

01:13:43.160 So I do a lot

01:13:43.780 of stuff that's

01:13:44.280 pure speculation

01:13:45.180 and I label it.

01:13:47.040 I don't have

01:13:48.400 a date yet

01:13:49.060 for the Russell

01:13:49.680 Brand conversation.

01:13:53.680 Yeah, if I had

01:13:55.000 sponsors,

01:13:55.660 they would influence

01:13:56.420 me.

01:13:56.880 I think they would.

01:13:58.640 So as you know,

01:13:59.780 I do a comic strip

01:14:01.500 for newspapers.

01:14:02.960 Do you think

01:14:03.480 that I can do

01:14:04.260 in the newspaper

01:14:05.140 and online?

01:14:06.680 I mean, probably

01:14:07.200 more people see it

01:14:07.980 online.

01:14:08.960 But do you think

01:14:09.560 I could do

01:14:10.460 a Dilbert comic

01:14:11.240 that's exactly

01:14:12.060 the comic

01:14:12.560 I would want

01:14:13.260 to write

01:14:13.700 and that the

01:14:15.520 people who are

01:14:16.460 my clients

01:14:17.100 would be okay

01:14:17.800 with that?

01:14:18.420 And the answer

01:14:18.720 is no.

01:14:20.060 No, they would

01:14:20.840 not be okay

01:14:21.420 with my honest

01:14:22.800 opinions on stuff.

01:14:23.640 They need something

01:14:24.800 that's family friendly.

01:14:27.220 So you may notice

01:14:28.460 I'm pushing

01:14:29.780 the boundaries

01:14:30.540 in the past

01:14:31.680 several months.

01:14:33.860 I'm kind of

01:14:34.640 making all

01:14:35.220 of my editors

01:14:36.200 and my clients

01:14:37.080 uncomfortable

01:14:37.600 with the content

01:14:38.540 because I'm going

01:14:39.760 after some

01:14:40.220 of the woke

01:14:40.720 stuff, etc.

01:14:42.060 You know,

01:14:42.580 some of the

01:14:42.960 pandemic stuff.

01:14:44.280 And there are

01:14:45.700 papers that are

01:14:46.500 not running me.

01:14:48.940 So my comic

01:14:50.160 about the character

01:14:51.840 Dave, I think

01:14:52.580 there were some

01:14:53.060 newspapers that

01:14:53.800 didn't run it

01:14:54.400 because it was

01:14:55.080 too dangerous

01:14:55.580 for them.

01:14:56.460 So I do keep

01:14:57.960 my content

01:14:58.540 within the realm

01:14:59.680 that I know

01:15:00.260 the clients will

01:15:01.160 allow, even though

01:15:02.140 I'm pushing the edge.

01:15:03.380 Which, by the way,

01:15:04.000 that's what they

01:15:04.440 pay for.

01:15:06.160 If your client

01:15:07.060 buys you as a

01:15:08.020 cartoonist,

01:15:08.880 especially my

01:15:09.660 kind of cartoon,

01:15:10.280 they're paying

01:15:12.600 you to push

01:15:13.600 the boundary

01:15:14.160 but not too

01:15:15.480 much, right?

01:15:16.300 They need you

01:15:17.000 to be a little

01:15:17.560 bit edgy.

01:15:18.180 That's part of

01:15:18.580 the entertainment.

01:15:21.340 So you're going

01:15:22.340 to see Dilbert

01:15:23.060 getting a lot

01:15:25.280 edgier in the

01:15:26.560 coming year.

01:15:28.380 I suppose I'm

01:15:29.320 breaking news

01:15:29.980 now in a small

01:15:31.100 way.

01:15:32.020 So Dilbert is

01:15:33.180 going to get

01:15:34.540 canceled,

01:15:36.460 let's say,

01:15:38.620 by design.

01:15:40.180 Because as I'm

01:15:41.120 approaching my

01:15:41.860 retirement planning

01:15:43.480 years, I don't

01:15:45.220 want to go out

01:15:46.000 with a whimper.

01:15:48.580 I don't.

01:15:49.920 I want to go

01:15:50.600 out in flames.

01:15:52.620 And if I have

01:15:53.520 to set something

01:15:54.680 on flame that

01:15:55.820 needs to be set

01:15:56.540 on flame, and

01:15:57.240 by the way,

01:15:57.640 productively, I'm

01:15:58.760 not talking about

01:15:59.300 anarchy, I'm

01:16:00.380 talking about

01:16:00.980 setting on fire

01:16:02.080 something that

01:16:02.640 maybe needed to

01:16:03.300 be set on fire.

01:16:05.080 But, yeah,

01:16:07.100 Dilbert is going

01:16:07.700 to get edgier and

01:16:08.560 edgier until they

01:16:09.400 won't let me do

01:16:10.120 it anymore.

01:16:11.280 So that will be

01:16:12.700 my version of

01:16:13.460 retiring.

01:16:14.360 And then you

01:16:14.860 know what I'm

01:16:15.180 going to do?

01:16:17.920 I guess I'm

01:16:18.620 breaking the news

01:16:19.300 here for the

01:16:19.740 first time.

01:16:20.980 So this is a

01:16:22.240 preliminary plan,

01:16:23.760 but it's an

01:16:24.120 actual plan.

01:16:26.720 I'm going to

01:16:27.580 be canceled by

01:16:29.300 everybody in

01:16:30.560 the regular

01:16:31.220 client business,

01:16:32.620 and then I'll

01:16:33.680 move my content

01:16:34.440 to a subscription

01:16:35.340 service called

01:16:37.280 Locals.

01:16:38.840 So there is a

01:16:40.100 good chance that,

01:16:41.060 say, five years

01:16:41.740 from now, that

01:16:43.060 the only place

01:16:43.680 you would ever

01:16:44.020 see a Dilbert

01:16:44.540 comic is on a

01:16:45.420 subscription service.

01:16:46.820 But then I can

01:16:49.060 say anything I

01:16:49.740 want.

01:16:51.360 And you haven't

01:16:52.180 seen that yet.

01:16:54.200 You haven't seen

01:16:55.400 that yet.

01:16:56.880 But I'm not going

01:16:57.760 to do that unless

01:16:58.560 I get canceled,

01:16:59.540 and I'm going to

01:17:00.100 try as hard as I

01:17:00.880 can to fly as

01:17:02.540 close to the sun

01:17:03.540 as I can.

01:17:04.140 And by the

01:17:04.920 way, I never

01:17:06.380 do anything just

01:17:07.220 to offend.

01:17:09.720 Some people

01:17:10.420 think I might.

01:17:11.920 But I never do

01:17:13.140 content that's

01:17:14.100 meant for

01:17:14.500 entertainment, or

01:17:15.520 maybe to provoke.

01:17:17.480 But I don't do it

01:17:18.300 just to piss people

01:17:19.120 off.

01:17:20.660 There's a reason

01:17:21.420 for it.

01:17:23.680 All right, that's

01:17:24.460 all for now.

01:17:25.940 And I'm going to

01:17:28.080 go do something

01:17:28.540 else, and so

01:17:29.540 are you.

01:17:30.160 I'll talk to you

01:17:30.660 later.

01:17:34.140 Bye.

01:17:34.820 Bye.

01:17:35.720 Bye.

01:17:36.120 Bye.

01:17:48.240 Bye.

01:17:49.860 Bye.

01:17:57.880 Bye.

01:17:58.860 Bye.

01:17:59.040 Bye.
