Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1851 Scott Adams： Is Biden Destroying The World Right In Front Of Everyone？ CNN Boycott？

00:00:00.000 Oh, good morning everybody, and welcome to another highlight of civilization.

00:00:07.460 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and I think if you scoured the entire planet,

00:00:12.220 all four corners of the circle, you would find nothing better than this.

00:00:17.980 Nothing, no.

00:00:19.380 Now, you think that the birth of your child was good?

00:00:21.900 That was nothing compared to what you're going to see this morning.

00:00:25.440 And if you'd like to take it up to another level, I'm talking better than twins,

00:00:30.000 well, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass of tanker gel,

00:00:33.800 so it's not a canteen jug or flask or a vessel of any kind.

00:00:37.480 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:41.100 I like coffee.

00:00:42.980 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day,

00:00:47.960 the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:50.760 It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it happens now.

00:00:54.100 Go.

00:00:54.440 Oh, yeah.

00:01:01.940 Oh, that was good.

00:01:04.680 Yeah, whoa, that was good.

00:01:07.040 Wow.

00:01:08.320 I feel I'm growing muscles.

00:01:10.640 I'm not even working out.

00:01:12.380 That's how good that coffee was.

00:01:13.880 Well, did you ever wonder what it was worth to not be a hypocrite?

00:01:20.620 Did you ever wonder the economic value of being consistent in your opinion?

00:01:26.060 Well, I've learned the actual economic value of that.

00:01:29.940 $20.

00:01:31.100 I won $20 yesterday for being consistent in my opinion.

00:01:37.300 I know.

00:01:37.920 I know.

00:01:38.520 Pat on the back.

00:01:39.700 Here's what happened.

00:01:40.620 But I was on Twitter, as I often am, and must have said something about those Mar-a-Lago

00:01:49.560 documents not being terribly important to anything.

00:01:55.000 To me, the whole Mar-a-Lago thing looks like fake news.

00:01:59.500 Once we boil it down to what was happening, it's going to be sort of about documents.

00:02:05.660 I just don't feel it's ever going to be important.

00:02:11.380 We're just going to treat it like it's important until we finally all just give up and say, yeah,

00:02:16.040 that really was nothing.

00:02:18.040 So I must have said something that trivialized the Mar-a-Lago stuff.

00:02:22.460 And then I got tweeted at by a Twitter user, JC Adolfson.

00:02:28.020 And he said, and he said to me, he said to me, I bet $20 if I scrolled back five years,

00:02:36.800 I would find tweets about emails and how, talking about Hillary Clinton, I would find tweets about

00:02:44.260 emails and how she should be in prison for mishandling classified documents.

00:02:48.140 That's right.

00:02:51.080 JC Adolfson thinks if he goes back through my Twitter account, he's going to find an inconsistency

00:02:57.240 where I thought Hillary Clinton should be locked up, but I think Trump should be just allowed

00:03:02.800 to do whatever he wants with documents.

00:03:04.360 That's what JC said.

00:03:06.160 He was going to bet $20 that I had an inconsistent opinion.

00:03:12.240 To which I said, bet accepted.

00:03:15.220 Because I said her emails were trivial.

00:03:18.140 How many of you were angry at me at the time when I kept saying that Hillary's emails

00:03:22.520 were no big deal and she shouldn't go to jail for that?

00:03:27.100 See what happened?

00:03:29.600 A few years pass.

00:03:32.200 And I'm just about the only person who can tell you that the Mar-a-Lago documents are not

00:03:37.720 important because who is the only consistent person in the entire world?

00:03:42.040 Me.

00:03:43.520 Me.

00:03:44.480 I know you're still mad at me.

00:03:45.600 Somebody says they're still mad at me.

00:03:48.980 But whether you think that both of them are important or neither of them, or if you want

00:03:54.300 to make the argument, Scott, these are completely different situations.

00:03:58.640 I know they're different situations.

00:04:02.020 I know.

00:04:03.020 I get that.

00:04:04.440 I get that one of them could be bad and one of them could be good in a theoretical sense.

00:04:09.700 But I believe that both of them are in the category of paperwork.

00:04:14.100 And while I get that there have to be laws about handling of secure stuff, I get that.

00:04:22.540 And I get that laws were broken.

00:04:24.740 And I get that nobody's above the law.

00:04:27.600 But I also like my own self-interest.

00:04:32.180 And my self-interest is that we don't have leaders in the country locking each other up.

00:04:36.720 The winner doesn't get to lock up the loser.

00:04:41.120 I'm not going to live in that country.

00:04:43.740 Seriously.

00:04:45.140 If the loser starts getting locked up, I'm fucking out of here.

00:04:50.480 I'm out of that country.

00:04:52.340 So no.

00:04:53.860 Do I care if Hillary broke some laws with her emails?

00:04:57.780 Not really.

00:04:59.340 Not really.

00:05:01.040 Because it was probably technical laws.

00:05:03.960 Now, what she was doing might have been important to me.

00:05:06.720 Like, what she was actually transacting might have mattered.

00:05:09.160 But I don't know what that is.

00:05:10.680 But do I care that her email was unsecure?

00:05:13.780 A little bit.

00:05:15.400 Not enough she should go to jail for it.

00:05:18.520 Do I care that Trump may or may not be mishandling some documents?

00:05:24.220 Yeah, a little bit.

00:05:25.520 A little bit.

00:05:26.820 Do I think he should go to jail for it?

00:05:29.000 No.

00:05:30.040 I mean, I don't know what the real situation is.

00:05:32.240 Maybe someday we'll find out.

00:05:33.840 But we shouldn't be sending our leaders to jail for stuff this small.

00:05:39.460 This small.

00:05:41.760 Let me go further.

00:05:44.020 I think our leaders should be above the law.

00:05:47.240 There, I said it.

00:05:48.780 Because I don't want somebody coming in and saying,

00:05:50.740 Scott, why do you think some people should be above the law?

00:05:54.360 No, I do think some people should be above the law.

00:05:58.380 These smaller laws.

00:06:00.480 The smaller ones.

00:06:01.300 Do you think the president should go to jail for littering?

00:06:06.020 Well, you don't go to jail for littering.

00:06:07.760 But you know what I mean, right?

00:06:09.480 It's simply not in the best interest of citizens

00:06:12.800 that we're using the legal system to beat up our leaders.

00:06:17.040 We should not give them that weapon.

00:06:19.720 We should disarm our leaders so that they're not fighting about bullshit.

00:06:26.420 Let them take care of global stuff.

00:06:30.340 Let them take care of the economy and immigration and supply chains.

00:06:35.140 Go work on that stuff.

00:06:36.160 But if you want to put any of them in jail for their emails or their paperwork,

00:06:43.340 nah, I'm not on board with that.

00:06:45.620 I'd let both sides get away with that stuff, unfortunately.

00:06:48.680 I mean, you should discourage it.

00:06:50.260 Maybe after they're out of office, you do something about it.

00:06:53.840 That would be different.

00:06:55.560 But Nixon?

00:06:59.200 I don't know.

00:07:00.060 Well, I think breaking and entering is not exactly a small crime.

00:07:07.040 I think breaking and entering is a different level.

00:07:13.060 All right.

00:07:15.760 It turns out that young people are being more pro-nuclear than maybe ever, as far as I know.

00:07:22.960 So what do you think has caused young people to become the most pro-nuclear they've been?

00:07:30.600 They're not pro-nuclear by a huge majority.

00:07:34.040 It's just compared to where they used to be.

00:07:36.120 There's a very dramatic movement.

00:07:37.900 What do you think it is?

00:07:39.800 What do you think caused youth to be pro-nuclear?

00:07:43.600 You know, I'd love to tell you that it's adults doing, you know, maybe some education.

00:07:50.000 I'd love to tell you it's Michael Schellenberger, because he's, you know, a superstar in that.

00:07:55.500 I'd love to tell you it's Mark Schneider, another superstar of, you know, nuclear, let's say, education for the public.

00:08:06.160 And I'd love to tell you that I'd helped in some way, because I like boosting both of those people.

00:08:12.080 But I don't think young people are paying attention to any of us.

00:08:16.220 Do you?

00:08:16.600 I can't imagine anybody under 20 could name any of those three people or has seen any of our tweets.

00:08:27.320 So whatever is happening, whatever is happening, I think is happening on its own.

00:08:34.980 I think with adults and maybe with leaders, we move the needle, you know, collectively.

00:08:40.220 But I think, here's my theory on the young.

00:08:45.940 You ready for it?

00:08:47.820 The young disagree with whatever is the, you know, the mainstream opinion.

00:08:55.000 So I feel like it has more to do with the fact that adults say nuclear is scary.

00:09:04.100 If all the adults that said nuclear was safe, maybe the young would be on the other side of that.

00:09:12.660 So there's a little bit, there's a little bit automatic about young people disagreeing with the status quo.

00:09:19.100 I feel like there's a little bit of automatic in there.

00:09:22.880 Now, secondly, it could be that they've, some of them, have figured out there's no other way to save the planet if they think the planet is going to, you know, go up in flames.

00:09:33.080 So it could be some of them said, okay, whatever, whatever risk is involved, it can't be as bad as the whole planet going up.

00:09:41.520 Could be that.

00:09:42.660 But it's an unknown.

00:09:45.140 I just read an article on it where the article said nobody knows why that's changing.

00:09:51.060 Well, Dr. Drew has been blocked on YouTube again.

00:09:55.520 Apparently he was planning to live stream a Dr. Robert Malone interview.

00:10:00.020 Dr. Robert Malone, as you know, is a rogue doctor, a rogue doctor, meaning that he has some non-traditional views on the dangers of the vaccines and some other pandemic-related topics.

00:10:17.440 And so we now live in a world where a doctor can't talk to a doctor in front of you.

00:10:25.260 That's real.

00:10:26.120 Now, if you told me that YouTube had blocked, let's say, Joe Rogan from talking to Robert Malone or Tim Poole or name whoever you want to name as a famous blogger,

00:10:40.980 I would say to myself, okay, maybe I don't agree with that, but at least I see what they're trying to do, right?

00:10:48.980 What they're trying to do is make sure that you don't have a doctor fooling some non-doctor with a bunch of bullshit and then the viewers can't tell that the doctor is full of shit, right?

00:11:02.340 But that's not really the same as a doctor talking to a doctor.

00:11:08.100 That's got to be different, all right?

00:11:10.700 If you have two doctors talking on a topic on which both of them have been quite immersed for a long time, that has to be something the public can see.

00:11:23.880 So YouTube, if you're listening to me and any of you have anything to do with who gets banned on the Dr. Drew channels, you need to make an exception for a doctor-on-doctor conversation.

00:11:35.460 I believe you should also let all of the other conversations in under free speech, blah, blah, blah.

00:11:42.660 But if you're stopping a doctor from talking to a doctor about the most relevant medical question of our time, you've really gone off the rails.

00:11:54.400 There's no way I can possibly support that, not even a little bit.

00:11:59.440 So I would say to YouTube, just keep in mind, this is doctor-on-doctor talking.

00:12:04.420 If you're blocking that, you've gone completely into a territory that has no backing at all, right?

00:12:12.760 No backing at all.

00:12:17.240 You've been off the rails since they fired James Damore.

00:12:22.520 Oh, they've been off the rails, not me.

00:12:25.480 All right.

00:12:27.680 So we'll see what happens there.

00:12:29.220 The funniest story of the day is there's a trending hashtag on Twitter to boycott CNN.

00:12:39.320 Do you know why there's a move by CNN's own viewers to boycott CNN?

00:12:49.760 Yeah.

00:12:51.080 All right.

00:12:51.960 So let's just go through all the ways this is funny.

00:12:54.840 Number one, they want to stage a boycott for a product that nobody wants already.

00:13:05.540 CNN's ratings are so low that I don't know if you'd even notice a boycott.

00:13:10.220 Would anybody even notice?

00:13:12.640 All right.

00:13:12.940 So that's the first funny thing, is that they're talking about boycotting something that has almost no audience.

00:13:19.200 I'm exaggerating a little bit, but it's a small audience compared to a lot of things on television.

00:13:26.800 The next thing is that you have to go follow the hashtag.

00:13:35.600 So go to Twitter if you have a Twitter account and follow the boycott CNN hashtag.

00:13:39.420 And you have to see the comments from the angry audience that is being abandoned by them because they're making a move toward not being biased.

00:13:52.460 That's what CNN's doing.

00:13:55.000 So CNN has dared to say out loud that they don't want to publish biased news anymore.

00:14:01.760 They want to do something that's more realistic and close to the middle.

00:14:05.120 They're saying out loud, as specifically as they can, we want to be more fair and accurate in our news.

00:14:13.760 And what did their audience say?

00:14:15.980 Their audience said, no, no, we don't want that fair and accurate stuff down the middle.

00:14:22.580 We don't want that.

00:14:24.660 Now, how funny is it that they're literally boycotting fairness and accuracy?

00:14:32.640 And that their audience was apparently always in on the joke.

00:14:39.700 And the joke was that CNN wasn't trying to do real news.

00:14:43.560 That's how I hear it.

00:14:45.020 I hear that their audience understood that they weren't a real news organization.

00:14:51.740 It was about team building or something.

00:14:54.420 And that they liked that.

00:14:55.700 They liked the team building.

00:14:56.880 They liked the team play element of it.

00:14:59.620 And as soon as they said they were going to be real news, and they allowed on some Republicans, I guess, this week.

00:15:06.600 Well, I say allowed on.

00:15:07.920 I'm sure they were always invited, but for whatever reason, they're going on now.

00:15:11.700 And so they're watching their own audience go nuts because the audience might be exposed to real news for the first time.

00:15:20.000 And so they're watching their own audience.

00:15:21.000 It's very funny.

00:15:22.000 All right.

00:15:23.140 It's very funny.

00:15:23.940 There's not much you can say about it.

00:15:25.340 You just describe it.

00:15:27.160 And then it's just funny.

00:15:29.480 All right.

00:15:34.140 So here's an example.

00:15:36.300 So this is a story on CNN's website.

00:15:39.180 And you tell me if you would have seen this story a year ago.

00:15:46.140 Because I think this is an example of CNN trying to actually find a reasonable center.

00:15:51.580 Now, by the way, if they continue on this path, CNN does, of looking for the center, I think I'm going to be on their side.

00:16:00.260 But I think I'm going to help them, like, you know, talk them up a little bit.

00:16:05.940 Because I don't think it's going to work.

00:16:08.620 I think financially they're going to go down in flames because I don't know that their audience wants real news.

00:16:15.180 And I don't know that, you know, Fox viewers are going to tune in.

00:16:18.920 So I don't think their strategy is a good one.

00:16:21.820 But I do support it for the benefit of the world.

00:16:24.780 So for the benefit of the world, you know, maybe I'll give them a little boost.

00:16:29.000 But we'll see what they can do.

00:16:31.000 But here's an example.

00:16:32.640 You tell me if you think this story would have been on CNN a major story.

00:16:37.060 All right.

00:16:37.220 This is not small.

00:16:38.060 This is a major story on CNN.

00:16:40.380 And it says there's a big change in who's coming to the U.S.-Mexico border.

00:16:45.160 A large number of migrants from Mexico and the Northern Triangle are still making the journey.

00:16:51.080 But the number of migrants from other countries represented in the ratio graph has hugely increased.

00:16:57.480 So it's a story about the border situation worsening.

00:17:03.100 And it's worse in a way that clearly is some exposure to, you know, terrorism and risk.

00:17:10.140 Because the people coming across the border are no longer just Central America and Mexico.

00:17:14.860 They're from everywhere.

00:17:17.260 Right.

00:17:17.860 Yeah.

00:17:18.120 We've got Cubans and everything else.

00:17:19.860 So do you think the CNN would have told a story about the Mexican border crisis is not only bad, but it's worse than you think?

00:17:31.800 It's actually a story about the border situation being worse than you thought.

00:17:37.420 That's new, right?

00:17:39.420 Can't you already see the editorial change?

00:17:41.420 To me, it looks like there's a shift.

00:17:48.460 Now, I saw some people attacking Jake Tapper for having some Republicans on the program and not pushing back hard enough.

00:17:59.520 Well, I'm going to, you know, I'm going to support Jake Tapper here.

00:18:04.820 If he had Republicans on, that's a big step in the right direction.

00:18:10.840 And I'm sure he's invited them on before.

00:18:14.080 I just don't know why it's happening now and didn't happen before.

00:18:17.540 But how much pushback do you really expect on a, you know, like a four-minute hit?

00:18:23.180 There's just not a lot of pushback you can do.

00:18:25.520 So I don't know if you push back enough or not.

00:18:27.560 But, you know, there's a limit to how much you can push back in four minutes.

00:18:30.720 Here's a question for you.

00:18:36.100 How many ways could Trump win the presidency back?

00:18:41.640 I feel like there are lots of ways for him to do it.

00:18:44.740 But I don't think he's necessarily going to take the way that would be easiest.

00:18:49.780 Now, these are mostly just funny.

00:18:52.560 Here's one way Trump could win the presidency.

00:18:56.240 Never talk in public while he's running for public.

00:19:00.120 While he's running for president.

00:19:01.900 Just not.

00:19:03.580 Don't do any interviews.

00:19:05.600 Just don't do any.

00:19:07.060 Just do the Biden, Biden strategy and actually tell the world he's doing it.

00:19:12.540 Just say, you know, you know exactly what I'll do because you watched it before.

00:19:16.860 I'm going to do more of that.

00:19:18.120 If you want more of that, I'm your person.

00:19:23.520 But you don't need me to describe it because you know what it is.

00:19:26.080 You know what you're getting.

00:19:27.600 So you know what you're getting.

00:19:28.880 So I'm not going to say anything that will cause any fake news to come after me, taking things out of context.

00:19:35.180 You know exactly what you're getting.

00:19:37.360 I'll be here.

00:19:38.620 Let me know.

00:19:39.160 Now, the news would go crazy because they wouldn't have, you know, Trump to entertain them.

00:19:44.900 And there's no way that Trump would do this, by the way.

00:19:47.200 I think that's so counter to everything in his personality that there's no chance it would happen.

00:19:52.520 But would it work?

00:19:54.620 Would it work?

00:19:55.340 I think the only thing that could keep Trump from winning is something Trump said.

00:20:02.420 So if he doesn't say something, you know, that they can take out of context, it probably just waltzes right into the office.

00:20:11.300 All right.

00:20:11.540 Here's another one.

00:20:13.440 You know how Trump was good at grabbing the gun from the opponent and turning it around.

00:20:18.580 So, you know, he turned fake news into a weapon against him when it was initially used against him.

00:20:27.460 Here's one he could turn around.

00:20:29.440 Imagine instead of make America great again, Trump ran on an anti-fascism platform.

00:20:36.240 Anti-fascism platform.

00:20:39.060 And just made everything about that.

00:20:41.420 Say, fascism is when the government tries to control industry and takes your rights away.

00:20:45.960 Here are all the ways the Democrats are controlling industry.

00:20:50.020 We're trying to with their regulations and their taxes and their ESG.

00:20:54.220 And here are all the ways the Republicans are trying to keep you free.

00:20:59.480 Now, what would happen if he ran on an anti-fascism platform?

00:21:05.560 What would the Democrats say?

00:21:07.260 They'd say, no, you're the fascist.

00:21:10.760 Republicans are the fascist, right?

00:21:14.480 That's what they say.

00:21:15.480 Now, that would be predictable.

00:21:17.700 Now, what would happen next?

00:21:20.280 You know what would happen next?

00:21:22.100 You'd have to talk about what a fucking fascist is.

00:21:25.440 You couldn't avoid it.

00:21:27.060 If he made it his platform, you'd have to talk about it every day.

00:21:31.560 And if you talked about it every day, what would you learn?

00:21:34.460 Who's more fascist?

00:21:36.040 The people who are putting restrictions on you or the ones who are taking them off you.

00:21:42.260 Now, the glaring exception is abortion.

00:21:44.740 The left is going to say, no, you fascists are taking away our right of abortion, which is true in a way.

00:21:52.800 But at the same time, that's a special case, right?

00:21:57.120 Because, you know, the Republicans are saying, we're stopping murder.

00:22:03.500 You know, that's not exactly what motivates fascists.

00:22:07.740 Fascists are not motivated by stopping murder as they see it, right?

00:22:12.180 That's not my opinion.

00:22:13.260 That's the opinion of people.

00:22:15.420 So I think you could easily carve out the abortion one and say, no, no, no, that's about people's genuine...

00:22:26.080 Here's the way I'd say it.

00:22:27.580 If I were arguing against abortion, I would give the other side the complete respect that they deserve.

00:22:39.700 And I think they deserve more respect than you do, perhaps.

00:22:43.340 I would actually make their argument for them.

00:22:46.760 I'd say, here's what they say.

00:22:48.620 And I've got to admit, there's something to that.

00:22:51.860 But on the other side, you know, my team, if this is your team...

00:22:57.700 So one could say, my team believes that this is murder and that all life is sacred and we're going to push that.

00:23:05.060 I think you could make that message really easily.

00:23:08.180 But I think you have to respect the other side and say, I understand why somebody would want this right.

00:23:16.180 I understand why somebody would do it.

00:23:18.620 You know, times are tough.

00:23:19.880 Things are desperate.

00:23:21.600 People have different opinions about what is right, what is wrong.

00:23:24.220 I get that.

00:23:24.820 But we're on the side of life is sacred, and I think you'll appreciate that in the long run.

00:23:33.220 So I think you could easily make an anti-fascism argument and not worry about the abortion part.

00:23:39.820 You could argue that away pretty easily.

00:23:42.040 But you have to give some respect to the other team to make a good argument.

00:23:47.740 Nobody accepts an argument where you only say your side.

00:23:52.240 Nobody.

00:23:52.640 Because if you only say your side of the argument, and you don't acknowledge there's some point to the other side,

00:23:59.080 everybody just says, oh, a partisan.

00:24:00.780 They're not even trying.

00:24:03.260 All right.

00:24:03.800 You've got to show the other side.

00:24:06.860 All right.

00:24:08.260 Here's another way that Trump could win.

00:24:11.020 This would be his slogan.

00:24:13.040 You ready for this?

00:24:13.800 This one's going to, this one will just stop you in your tracks.

00:24:19.460 This would be a Trump slogan that would guarantee his election.

00:24:25.220 Make Europe warm again.

00:24:29.320 Make Europe warm again.

00:24:31.680 He could just put out the bumper sticker and then go back in the basement.

00:24:46.240 He would never have to do an interview again.

00:24:49.260 Make Europe warm again.

00:24:50.980 There's nothing else you have to add to that argument.

00:24:56.680 Am I right?

00:24:57.400 The entire argument is in four words.

00:25:03.680 There's nothing else you have to add to that.

00:25:06.660 That Biden was such a disaster that Europe is going to freeze and starve, at least to some degree.

00:25:14.660 And, you know, it might be even worse, not might, it's going to be even worse in the, you know, in the Bangladesh type places.

00:25:24.180 There's, you could just be done.

00:25:27.020 Make Europe warm again and walk away.

00:25:31.860 Because if you don't want Europe to be warm again, you're not really America, are you?

00:25:37.760 Because here's my, here's my take on this.

00:25:40.260 A lot of these questions are about what you want to do.

00:25:42.980 Like, what's the best path?

00:25:45.600 This isn't one of them.

00:25:47.920 It isn't one of them.

00:25:50.580 What is this?

00:25:52.340 The question of whether we're, you know, stepping up to help Europe enough,

00:25:56.940 is that a question about the best strategy?

00:26:00.500 It isn't.

00:26:02.260 Is it about the best path?

00:26:04.460 Is it about who's predicting what?

00:26:06.480 Is it about follow the money?

00:26:08.560 No.

00:26:09.740 It's not any of that.

00:26:11.020 It's about one fucking thing.

00:26:16.040 Who is America?

00:26:19.120 This is a, this is an identity question.

00:26:22.920 Who are we?

00:26:24.840 Because we're a little bit confused right now, aren't we?

00:26:27.760 Like, America's not quite sure who it is.

00:26:30.480 We're sort of in a little transitionary period.

00:26:32.920 We're a little, you know, at each other's throats at the moment.

00:26:38.360 But if we stand here and watch Europe starve and freeze,

00:26:44.960 whatever we are is not what we used to be.

00:26:50.060 Who would agree with me on that?

00:26:51.800 If we let this happen the way it looks like it's going to happen,

00:26:55.540 I don't see anything that would change it.

00:26:59.120 But can we say that we're great?

00:27:01.200 I don't think so.

00:27:03.220 Like, I'm so pro-American, it's disgusting.

00:27:06.520 But if we let this happen, we're not great.

00:27:09.380 We're not great.

00:27:10.840 Let's just stop pretending.

00:27:13.080 You know, maybe it should be, make America adequate again.

00:27:17.000 Make America not suck again.

00:27:19.620 Like, we're so far from greatness if we can't solve this problem.

00:27:23.700 Because here's the problem.

00:27:24.940 It's a solvable problem.

00:27:26.880 If it were unsolvable, or if we had done everything we could,

00:27:33.100 I'd say, well, you've done everything you could.

00:27:36.960 But I'm not happy rebranding America to pathetic assholes.

00:27:44.040 Right?

00:27:44.100 There are enough people who think that about America already.

00:27:47.120 But we don't have to brand ourselves pathetic assholes.

00:27:51.800 And that's what we're doing.

00:27:54.280 You know, it's bad enough if somebody else has a bad opinion about your country.

00:27:57.940 But we're doing this to ourselves.

00:28:00.120 We're making a conscious, considered,

00:28:03.940 we've got plenty of time, like nobody's rushed.

00:28:07.700 And we've decided that what America wants to be,

00:28:12.700 at least if we continue on this path,

00:28:15.000 is we want to be a bunch of useless assholes.

00:28:21.200 That's like an actual decision.

00:28:24.020 You know, in effect, it's a decision.

00:28:26.660 I'll tell you who I'd like to be.

00:28:28.920 Here's who I would like to be.

00:28:30.400 I'd like to be somebody who pulled out all the stops to help Europe.

00:28:36.160 That's who I'd like to be.

00:28:37.240 And if we don't have an administration that can help me be who I want to be,

00:28:43.900 I can't really support that.

00:28:47.000 Can't support that at all.

00:28:49.880 Yeah, act like an ally.

00:28:52.020 And let me say this.

00:28:53.060 If we let Europe starve and freeze,

00:28:56.900 don't ask them for help if we ever need any.

00:29:01.980 If the United States ever needs some help,

00:29:04.880 I wouldn't ask Europe.

00:29:07.560 Because if they say no, I'd say,

00:29:09.240 okay, I get that.

00:29:10.460 Yeah, I get that.

00:29:12.140 So we're going to throw away 200 years of

00:29:15.840 insanely important history

00:29:18.860 where if you need help, we're going to be there.

00:29:22.320 We're going to throw that out the fucking window.

00:29:25.920 That's like the most valuable thing the country has.

00:29:28.920 What does America have that's more valuable than its allies?

00:29:35.360 Not much.

00:29:37.740 Right.

00:29:40.040 Did you know that Elon Musk said he was going to give up

00:29:43.540 all his major physical possessions?

00:29:46.160 So I guess he got rid of all his real estate.

00:29:47.940 He doesn't own a house.

00:29:48.860 I'm guessing he doesn't own a car.

00:29:53.820 Which is funny.

00:29:55.240 Because he owns a car company.

00:29:58.340 But I'll bet he doesn't own a car.

00:30:00.300 Probably just has one that the company owns

00:30:02.240 or he drives or something.

00:30:03.640 Or somebody drives them.

00:30:04.780 He probably doesn't drive too much.

00:30:07.320 And do you remember a lot of you were worried

00:30:09.960 because it was a Klaus Schwab

00:30:11.440 or somebody predicted about the future

00:30:14.100 that you will own nothing and love it?

00:30:15.960 But you'll own nothing and love it.

00:30:18.180 And then people interpreted that as socialism.

00:30:22.520 And when I heard it, I thought,

00:30:23.880 no, no, no.

00:30:25.840 Owning things is a gigantic headache.

00:30:29.420 Now, if you're not in this situation,

00:30:32.180 you may not have experienced this,

00:30:33.740 but I'm sort of in the...

00:30:35.520 Not sort of.

00:30:36.580 I'm in a situation

00:30:37.680 where I could own more than one home

00:30:40.260 if I wanted to.

00:30:43.840 Do you know how much trouble

00:30:45.240 owning one home is?

00:30:47.560 Oh, my God.

00:30:49.060 It's like a full-time job.

00:30:51.200 Owning two homes would just double my work

00:30:53.280 and I could go stay at a hotel

00:30:55.240 if I want to travel.

00:30:57.200 Owning possessions

00:30:58.060 is just a burden.

00:31:02.040 Do you know why I like going on vacation?

00:31:05.020 Does anybody know why I like going on vacation?

00:31:07.780 To get away from my possessions.

00:31:11.120 True story.

00:31:12.660 When I go on vacation,

00:31:14.660 it's not because I like the destination,

00:31:17.280 although I often like the destination.

00:31:19.280 It's because I have to escape my possessions.

00:31:22.500 They're too needy.

00:31:24.440 And my dog.

00:31:25.420 I have to get away from my dog.

00:31:28.500 My dog is a continuous burden on my life.

00:31:31.000 I love her madly.

00:31:32.460 You know, when she passes,

00:31:33.700 I'll be destroyed.

00:31:36.400 But nonetheless,

00:31:38.760 she lowers the quality of my life

00:31:40.960 by 40%, at least.

00:31:44.200 I mean, it's just terrible

00:31:45.280 living in a house with a dog

00:31:46.520 if you're the only one.

00:31:47.680 If you have other people in the house,

00:31:49.020 they can, you know,

00:31:50.020 take some of the dog energy.

00:31:52.060 But if there's only one person

00:31:53.220 in the house with a dog,

00:31:54.240 it's just the shits.

00:31:57.600 It really is terrible

00:31:58.800 to live with a dog.

00:32:00.560 And I love my dog.

00:32:02.680 I love her.

00:32:04.520 You just can't live and work

00:32:06.120 in a house that has a dog.

00:32:07.600 Because the trouble is,

00:32:08.580 I have too much empathy.

00:32:10.620 I don't know what your dog looks like,

00:32:13.360 but every time I want to do something,

00:32:15.780 my dog runs over and does this.

00:32:18.920 Are you going to do something

00:32:20.020 for me right now?

00:32:21.120 Are we going outside?

00:32:22.120 Are we going outside?

00:32:22.840 No?

00:32:23.760 Oh.

00:32:25.080 Oh.

00:32:26.680 Oh.

00:32:28.320 Oh.

00:32:30.040 Oh.

00:32:31.520 Oh.

00:32:32.400 We're not going outside right now?

00:32:34.680 Because I really, really want

00:32:36.080 to go outside right now.

00:32:37.500 Not in five minutes.

00:32:38.380 Right now.

00:32:40.940 That's my dog

00:32:42.120 every minute of my life.

00:32:44.420 She either needs a treat

00:32:46.080 right now,

00:32:47.480 or she's got to go

00:32:49.240 through a doorway

00:32:49.980 or someplace else

00:32:51.300 right now.

00:32:53.400 And she can't wait.

00:32:55.440 So every minute of my day,

00:32:56.860 I'm disappointing my dog

00:32:58.240 who I love more than,

00:32:59.820 you know,

00:33:00.660 anybody basically.

00:33:03.540 And so I'm just

00:33:04.720 making the thing

00:33:06.040 I love the most,

00:33:07.920 I'm treating her

00:33:08.840 like a prisoner.

00:33:10.280 Because she's not free.

00:33:11.400 I'm literally

00:33:13.440 her jailer.

00:33:15.400 And I feel like

00:33:16.500 her jailer every day.

00:33:17.680 Every moment

00:33:18.340 I'm not playing with her,

00:33:19.820 she's in jail.

00:33:21.700 She literally has to

00:33:22.800 just sit on the couch

00:33:23.800 for like eight fucking hours

00:33:25.780 waiting for me

00:33:26.580 to have some free time

00:33:27.700 to do something with her

00:33:28.680 for like ten minutes.

00:33:30.820 And then she'll go like,

00:33:32.200 what,

00:33:32.760 wait in jail

00:33:33.700 another six hours

00:33:35.080 until something comes up?

00:33:37.400 It's horrible

00:33:38.000 having a dog.

00:33:39.420 I so don't recommend it.

00:33:42.380 Anyway.

00:33:44.040 But I love dogs.

00:33:45.840 Physical possessions?

00:33:47.460 Yeah,

00:33:47.880 you don't get involved.

00:33:52.080 So musket

00:33:52.940 Twitter whistleblower.

00:33:59.440 So the whistleblower

00:34:00.700 is this painter.

00:34:03.740 He's a,

00:34:05.580 he was the head of security.

00:34:06.640 for Twitter.

00:34:08.720 How much do you imagine

00:34:09.720 the head of,

00:34:10.300 the ex-head of security

00:34:11.620 for Twitter

00:34:12.620 knows about the,

00:34:13.600 the internal workings?

00:34:16.300 Wouldn't,

00:34:16.740 wouldn't you love to

00:34:17.500 interview that guy?

00:34:19.960 Because didn't he say

00:34:21.080 that he thinks

00:34:21.600 there might be

00:34:22.060 some foreign agents

00:34:23.040 in the company?

00:34:24.900 Wouldn't you like to know

00:34:25.800 a little bit more

00:34:26.400 about that?

00:34:31.740 Doggy daycare.

00:34:33.540 But doggy daycare

00:34:34.820 requires me to,

00:34:36.180 drive the dog there

00:34:37.780 and then pick it up

00:34:38.640 and drive it back.

00:34:40.140 So that's like

00:34:41.040 an hour and a half

00:34:41.660 out of my day.

00:34:43.220 There's just nothing,

00:34:44.480 it's just an unsolvable

00:34:45.500 problem basically.

00:34:48.600 Anyway,

00:34:49.100 we'll find out more

00:34:49.760 about Twitter.

00:34:53.180 How many of you think

00:34:54.260 there's going to be

00:34:54.760 some kind of a civil war

00:34:55.900 in the United States?

00:34:56.720 Don't answer,

00:34:58.440 there's not going to be

00:34:59.040 a civil war.

00:35:00.580 Again,

00:35:01.880 all the people

00:35:02.520 talking about a civil war

00:35:03.600 are just addicted

00:35:04.260 to social media.

00:35:07.000 There's nobody

00:35:07.700 who doesn't use

00:35:08.620 social media

00:35:09.400 who thinks there's

00:35:10.080 going to be a civil war.

00:35:12.860 Not even close.

00:35:14.960 Not even close.

00:35:16.760 If January 6th

00:35:18.520 didn't cause

00:35:19.420 Republicans

00:35:20.340 to even arm themselves,

00:35:22.740 I mean,

00:35:23.080 I suppose they had

00:35:23.940 some weapons nearby,

00:35:25.320 but they didn't use

00:35:26.400 weapons on January 6th.

00:35:28.500 And that was,

00:35:29.400 at least in their minds,

00:35:30.760 that was a pretty big deal.

00:35:32.660 Now,

00:35:33.480 whether or not

00:35:34.200 they were right or wrong

00:35:35.020 is a separate question.

00:35:36.460 But in their minds,

00:35:37.380 that was a big deal.

00:35:38.760 They thought the

00:35:39.580 Republic had been

00:35:41.160 subverted.

00:35:42.820 And even that

00:35:43.660 didn't cause violence.

00:35:45.140 And it only caused

00:35:45.860 a little bit of,

00:35:47.260 you know,

00:35:47.540 well,

00:35:47.920 it caused some violence,

00:35:48.720 but it caused,

00:35:49.920 you know,

00:35:50.420 action only in one place.

00:35:51.980 It didn't even spread

00:35:53.000 around the country.

00:35:54.740 So,

00:35:56.200 we need to get rid

00:35:57.720 of the silliness.

00:35:59.980 That's not serious.

00:36:01.760 The whole civil war thing.

00:36:03.840 Right?

00:36:04.000 That's not serious.

00:36:05.400 And you need to

00:36:06.580 start treating it

00:36:08.320 as not serious.

00:36:13.600 You've spoiled your dog.

00:36:15.400 Yeah.

00:36:16.280 I didn't spoil my dog,

00:36:17.700 but the dog gets spoiled.

00:36:20.160 All right.

00:36:22.960 Did you know

00:36:23.860 there's an old interview

00:36:25.040 that I saw on Twitter today

00:36:26.640 in which Biden,

00:36:28.980 however many years ago,

00:36:30.560 talking about the war in Iraq,

00:36:33.240 and I guess he supported

00:36:34.100 the war in Iraq,

00:36:35.120 and he actually said out loud

00:36:37.780 that the story about Saddam

00:36:40.980 maybe having nuclear weapons

00:36:42.800 was intentionally a lie

00:36:45.360 by the government

00:36:47.920 and that they all knew it,

00:36:50.780 like the senators all knew it,

00:36:52.540 that it was a lie.

00:36:53.820 And the reason that

00:36:54.640 they went along with it,

00:36:56.540 and Biden says this directly,

00:36:58.580 that he went along with the lie

00:37:00.020 because he thought

00:37:01.760 that would sell better

00:37:02.740 to the public

00:37:03.820 than the truth.

00:37:06.620 I'm not making this up.

00:37:07.940 He actually said that.

00:37:09.300 He said that

00:37:10.260 the government lied

00:37:11.600 to the people

00:37:12.200 about nuclear weapons

00:37:13.980 or a nuclear program

00:37:15.340 in Iraq.

00:37:16.160 They knew they were lying,

00:37:18.140 and it's because

00:37:18.640 the real story

00:37:19.560 wouldn't sell as well.

00:37:22.240 He said that out loud

00:37:23.600 in direct language.

00:37:25.960 I mean,

00:37:26.180 I'm paraphrasing,

00:37:27.420 but he was just as direct.

00:37:29.540 Now,

00:37:29.860 he did argue

00:37:30.480 that the, quote,

00:37:31.960 totality of the situation

00:37:33.620 was sufficient for the war.

00:37:35.960 So his argument is,

00:37:38.220 yes,

00:37:39.340 Saddam had weapons

00:37:40.840 of mass destruction,

00:37:42.700 chemical weapons,

00:37:45.320 and while we could not

00:37:47.800 prove he had nuclear,

00:37:49.000 it was better to sell

00:37:50.460 that to the public.

00:37:52.720 Now,

00:37:54.120 did Saddam have

00:37:55.100 chemical weapons?

00:37:57.740 You all watched the news,

00:38:00.100 and I'm sure

00:38:00.580 there's no fake news.

00:38:02.140 Did Saddam have

00:38:03.240 chemical weapons?

00:38:04.360 Go.

00:38:06.180 Some say no,

00:38:07.280 some say yes.

00:38:09.240 I see mostly yeses,

00:38:10.360 but a lot of noes.

00:38:12.060 Yes,

00:38:12.500 no,

00:38:12.800 yes.

00:38:13.160 Now,

00:38:13.660 how could you all

00:38:14.660 have watched the same news,

00:38:16.740 and you have different opinions

00:38:17.920 about whether he had

00:38:18.640 chemical weapons?

00:38:19.940 How is that possible?

00:38:21.820 How could you all

00:38:22.800 have been watching

00:38:23.420 the same story?

00:38:24.700 This is about

00:38:25.400 a major,

00:38:26.960 major war,

00:38:28.300 and you don't know

00:38:29.260 the basics about it.

00:38:31.540 The basics.

00:38:32.200 Did he have

00:38:33.520 chemical weapons?

00:38:35.360 Well,

00:38:35.840 here's the weird thing

00:38:36.580 about being on Twitter.

00:38:39.340 So,

00:38:39.940 I tweet about this

00:38:40.660 morning,

00:38:41.900 and then I get

00:38:42.720 tweeted at

00:38:45.260 by Joshua Hartley,

00:38:48.340 who's on Twitter,

00:38:49.780 and

00:38:50.020 just take a moment

00:38:52.880 to consider

00:38:54.740 how awesome

00:38:55.480 this is,

00:38:56.640 what I'm going to tell you.

00:38:57.980 how awesome

00:38:59.280 is it

00:38:59.720 that we're

00:39:00.780 wondering about,

00:39:01.680 okay,

00:39:01.900 what really did

00:39:02.720 happen in Iraq?

00:39:03.920 And within minutes,

00:39:04.880 I get a tweet

00:39:05.540 from Joshua Hartley,

00:39:07.160 who says,

00:39:07.700 and I quote,

00:39:08.900 my platoon

00:39:09.740 guarded the main bunker

00:39:11.280 storing chemical weapons

00:39:12.720 in 2008.

00:39:15.440 What?

00:39:16.880 What?

00:39:18.400 Am I actually

00:39:19.400 talking to the person

00:39:20.340 who guarded

00:39:20.920 the weapons

00:39:21.460 of mass destruction,

00:39:22.520 so I don't have to

00:39:23.460 wonder if they were real?

00:39:25.340 I'm talking to the guy

00:39:26.180 who stood there

00:39:26.760 next to him.

00:39:28.700 All right,

00:39:28.900 so he goes on.

00:39:29.860 He goes,

00:39:30.760 no nuclear,

00:39:31.860 so he confirms

00:39:32.840 no nuclear,

00:39:34.100 but yes,

00:39:34.820 WMDs.

00:39:35.820 Saddam hadn't

00:39:36.780 destroyed them

00:39:37.560 as agreed.

00:39:39.440 Okay,

00:39:40.000 now to go back

00:39:40.980 to Biden's point,

00:39:42.740 if Saddam said

00:39:43.680 he would destroy them,

00:39:44.720 but we knew

00:39:45.720 he hadn't,

00:39:47.100 would that be

00:39:47.760 a cause for war?

00:39:49.600 They are weapons

00:39:50.280 of mass destruction.

00:39:51.120 You could argue

00:39:54.720 whether that's

00:39:55.240 a cause for war,

00:39:56.300 but I don't think

00:39:57.940 you can argue

00:39:58.540 that they had them

00:39:59.380 and they didn't

00:40:00.560 destroy them.

00:40:02.280 Now,

00:40:03.440 is the fact

00:40:04.080 that they didn't

00:40:04.740 destroy them

00:40:05.460 evidence that

00:40:07.840 Saddam was planning

00:40:09.040 to maybe use them?

00:40:10.500 Yes or no?

00:40:11.760 Is the fact

00:40:12.380 that Saddam

00:40:12.900 did not destroy them,

00:40:14.440 because that seems

00:40:15.240 to be proven,

00:40:17.280 is that proof

00:40:18.340 that he planned

00:40:19.940 to have them

00:40:21.420 available to use?

00:40:24.060 Do you know

00:40:24.700 how the United States

00:40:25.740 destroyed those

00:40:27.000 chemical weapons

00:40:27.800 finally?

00:40:28.660 Does anybody

00:40:29.020 know that story?

00:40:30.480 So they were there.

00:40:31.980 How did we

00:40:32.580 destroy them?

00:40:35.760 Does anybody know?

00:40:38.040 No,

00:40:38.560 we didn't use them.

00:40:42.600 Burn them?

00:40:44.180 They tried.

00:40:45.480 Blowing them up

00:40:46.540 was too risky.

00:40:48.160 Now,

00:40:50.160 I'm going to tell you

00:40:52.260 the answer.

00:40:55.340 We guarded them

00:40:56.620 until we left

00:40:57.380 and then ISIS

00:40:58.140 took them.

00:41:01.800 We guarded them

00:41:03.020 until we stopped

00:41:04.560 guarding it

00:41:05.140 and then ISIS

00:41:06.500 took it.

00:41:07.960 That actually

00:41:08.780 happened.

00:41:10.200 I think.

00:41:11.520 I mean,

00:41:11.980 that's the story

00:41:12.620 I'm getting.

00:41:14.240 Now,

00:41:14.600 here's the second

00:41:15.980 part of the story.

00:41:16.600 Do you know

00:41:18.560 why the United

00:41:19.120 States didn't

00:41:20.040 destroy them?

00:41:21.760 We didn't know

00:41:22.540 how.

00:41:23.900 The United

00:41:24.680 States

00:41:25.240 did not know

00:41:26.880 how

00:41:27.340 to do the

00:41:28.980 thing that we

00:41:29.560 told Saddam

00:41:30.380 he had to do

00:41:31.040 or we'd destroy

00:41:31.800 his country.

00:41:32.820 Let me say it

00:41:33.320 again.

00:41:34.040 The United

00:41:34.540 States did

00:41:35.520 not know

00:41:36.060 and still

00:41:36.560 does not

00:41:37.040 know

00:41:37.340 how to

00:41:38.360 destroy

00:41:38.720 those

00:41:39.100 chemical

00:41:39.940 weapons

00:41:40.340 without making

00:41:40.960 things worse.

00:41:41.640 but we

00:41:43.200 asked Saddam

00:41:44.120 to do it

00:41:44.660 and when he

00:41:46.040 didn't do

00:41:46.540 the thing

00:41:46.900 that's

00:41:47.140 impossible

00:41:47.640 we destroyed

00:41:49.220 his country

00:41:49.700 and killed

00:41:50.100 him

00:41:50.340 because he

00:41:52.580 didn't do

00:41:53.040 the thing

00:41:53.400 we asked

00:41:53.760 him to do

00:41:54.300 that we

00:41:55.360 know

00:41:55.580 wasn't

00:41:56.020 a fact

00:41:56.460 impossible.

00:41:59.780 That really

00:42:00.480 happened.

00:42:02.900 Amazing.

00:42:03.820 Now,

00:42:04.080 the other

00:42:04.300 thing is

00:42:04.600 we don't

00:42:04.920 know how

00:42:05.620 useful

00:42:06.940 these

00:42:07.620 chemical

00:42:08.500 weapons

00:42:08.820 were

00:42:09.080 because they

00:42:09.560 were old

00:42:10.120 and degraded.

00:42:11.820 Now,

00:42:12.000 the reason

00:42:12.380 that they

00:42:13.920 couldn't tell

00:42:14.640 you,

00:42:15.060 oh,

00:42:15.240 we found

00:42:15.660 all these

00:42:16.080 weapons of

00:42:16.600 mass destruction

00:42:17.300 and give

00:42:18.800 you full

00:42:19.180 details about

00:42:19.860 it was

00:42:20.260 because

00:42:20.940 they were

00:42:21.920 old

00:42:22.480 and it

00:42:23.800 did not

00:42:24.160 support the

00:42:24.760 narrative to

00:42:25.400 say the

00:42:25.740 only weapons

00:42:26.440 of mass

00:42:26.780 destruction

00:42:27.320 were old

00:42:28.560 and probably

00:42:29.000 didn't work.

00:42:31.840 So they

00:42:32.480 had to

00:42:32.740 change the

00:42:33.160 narrative

00:42:33.500 to what

00:42:34.540 would sell.

00:42:35.880 So now

00:42:36.360 that you

00:42:36.640 know that

00:42:36.960 your government

00:42:37.500 admits lying

00:42:38.660 to you

00:42:39.100 to get

00:42:39.740 you into

00:42:40.100 a war

00:42:40.620 would you

00:42:43.220 believe

00:42:43.520 anything

00:42:43.980 they ever

00:42:44.460 tell you

00:42:44.840 again?

00:42:46.140 Not if

00:42:46.720 you're

00:42:46.880 smart.

00:42:48.160 Not if

00:42:48.600 you're

00:42:48.760 smart.

00:42:51.720 So further,

00:42:52.960 this is

00:42:53.480 Joshua Hartley

00:42:54.160 who had

00:42:54.520 guarded the

00:42:55.240 weapons of

00:42:55.860 mass destruction.

00:42:56.640 I'll let you

00:42:57.120 know what

00:42:57.360 the rest of

00:42:57.840 his tweets

00:42:58.280 here.

00:42:59.000 He said,

00:42:59.400 I was able

00:42:59.760 to discuss

00:43:00.320 this with

00:43:00.720 members of

00:43:01.140 the Bush

00:43:01.420 administration

00:43:01.940 after the

00:43:02.420 war and

00:43:03.500 the lies

00:43:03.960 around this

00:43:04.500 are far

00:43:04.920 deeper and

00:43:05.380 more complex

00:43:06.140 than can be

00:43:07.020 discerned by

00:43:07.900 publicly available

00:43:09.420 information and

00:43:10.480 he said I

00:43:11.040 could DM

00:43:11.440 him if I

00:43:12.100 wanted to

00:43:12.820 know more.

00:43:13.940 But this is

00:43:14.520 what he's

00:43:14.820 saying publicly

00:43:15.420 on Twitter.

00:43:18.660 And he

00:43:19.360 said that

00:43:20.380 some of

00:43:21.200 the WMDs

00:43:22.940 probably were

00:43:23.780 usable but

00:43:24.740 many of

00:43:25.120 them were

00:43:25.440 degraded.

00:43:26.140 so apparently

00:43:31.720 they were

00:43:32.120 guarding a

00:43:32.940 facility that

00:43:33.800 the politicians

00:43:34.620 wanted you

00:43:35.240 to believe

00:43:35.560 didn't exist.

00:43:38.100 Now the

00:43:38.700 New York

00:43:38.960 Times was

00:43:39.520 reporting about

00:43:40.200 the old

00:43:40.540 chemical weapons

00:43:41.300 that were

00:43:41.520 found.

00:43:44.260 And I

00:43:45.340 think the

00:43:45.660 New York

00:43:45.900 Times actually

00:43:46.520 reported that

00:43:47.440 the story

00:43:50.000 was being

00:43:51.700 managed by

00:43:52.300 the government

00:43:52.780 because otherwise

00:43:53.760 you couldn't

00:43:54.260 sell it to

00:43:54.720 the public.

00:43:56.140 Wow.

00:43:59.820 Wow.

00:44:00.680 Because the

00:44:01.200 weapons they

00:44:01.960 found were

00:44:02.280 too old to

00:44:02.860 make their

00:44:03.160 case.

00:44:05.020 All right.

00:44:06.860 So how

00:44:08.180 much of a

00:44:10.260 lie

00:44:10.620 yeah how

00:44:14.180 much of a

00:44:14.620 lie we know

00:44:15.280 about Tonkin

00:44:16.480 Tonkin Bay.

00:44:17.960 So the

00:44:18.340 government has

00:44:19.300 lied to get us

00:44:20.080 into war before

00:44:20.820 we know that.

00:44:21.640 That's a matter

00:44:22.380 of historical

00:44:23.160 record.

00:44:23.620 But you

00:44:26.600 wonder how

00:44:27.140 far the

00:44:27.580 gaslighting

00:44:28.260 can go.

00:44:30.000 And here's

00:44:30.360 an example

00:44:30.820 of how

00:44:31.240 far the

00:44:31.640 gaslighting

00:44:32.280 can go.

00:44:34.080 So I

00:44:34.380 guess Steve

00:44:35.440 Doocy asked

00:44:36.320 Jean-Pierre

00:44:38.420 the spokesperson

00:44:40.960 for Biden.

00:44:42.500 Doocy said

00:44:43.360 somebody

00:44:44.900 unvaccinated

00:44:45.820 comes over

00:44:46.580 on a plane

00:44:47.220 talking about

00:44:47.840 immigration.

00:44:49.240 You say

00:44:49.820 that's not

00:44:50.340 okay.

00:44:50.680 somebody walks

00:44:52.380 into Texas

00:44:53.020 or Arizona

00:44:53.700 unvaccinated

00:44:54.760 they're allowed

00:44:55.720 to stay.

00:44:57.420 And Jean-Pierre

00:44:57.960 says that's

00:44:58.960 not how it

00:44:59.520 works.

00:45:00.660 It's not

00:45:01.140 like someone

00:45:01.700 walks over.

00:45:05.940 What?

00:45:07.500 It's not

00:45:08.280 like somebody

00:45:08.800 just walks

00:45:09.360 over the

00:45:09.780 border.

00:45:11.600 Turn on

00:45:12.380 the television.

00:45:14.240 You can

00:45:14.840 see live

00:45:15.620 streams of

00:45:16.480 people walking

00:45:17.100 over the

00:45:17.500 border just

00:45:18.060 walking over.

00:45:18.780 being guided

00:45:20.720 by the

00:45:21.080 coyotes.

00:45:21.840 It's all

00:45:22.460 over the

00:45:22.820 news.

00:45:23.520 All you

00:45:23.720 have to

00:45:23.900 do is

00:45:24.100 turn it

00:45:24.440 on.

00:45:24.740 You can

00:45:24.940 see the

00:45:25.280 lines of

00:45:25.780 people coming

00:45:26.200 over.

00:45:27.800 And then

00:45:28.440 Doocy says

00:45:29.040 that's exactly

00:45:30.000 what is

00:45:30.380 happening.

00:45:32.280 It's not

00:45:32.940 like someone

00:45:33.360 just walks

00:45:33.900 over.

00:45:35.140 That's

00:45:35.620 exactly

00:45:36.160 what's

00:45:36.500 happening.

00:45:37.760 So then

00:45:38.300 the spokesperson

00:45:39.280 went on

00:45:40.060 and just

00:45:40.520 sort of

00:45:40.800 changed the

00:45:41.280 subject to

00:45:41.900 all the

00:45:42.320 awesome

00:45:42.640 things they're

00:45:43.260 doing to

00:45:43.680 control the

00:45:44.200 border.

00:45:44.420 now I

00:45:48.300 get that

00:45:48.720 her job

00:45:49.240 is to

00:45:49.620 support the

00:45:50.520 administration

00:45:50.960 but this

00:45:52.360 is such a

00:45:53.220 transparent

00:45:54.240 lie.

00:45:56.900 Are they

00:45:57.960 supposed to

00:45:58.480 lie to you

00:45:59.020 that directly?

00:46:00.760 Because it

00:46:01.120 would be one

00:46:01.540 thing to

00:46:01.920 say oh

00:46:02.620 I think

00:46:03.740 the inflation

00:46:04.880 is transitory

00:46:05.880 which they

00:46:07.680 probably didn't

00:46:08.460 think but at

00:46:09.060 least they had

00:46:09.460 something like

00:46:10.380 an argument.

00:46:11.460 Say well

00:46:11.960 these things

00:46:12.740 are temporary.

00:46:13.380 At least

00:46:14.100 there was

00:46:15.060 something to

00:46:15.800 it.

00:46:17.740 But this

00:46:18.460 is just a

00:46:19.000 direct lie

00:46:19.560 that your

00:46:19.920 eyes are

00:46:20.360 not working.

00:46:21.580 Oh yeah

00:46:22.400 your eyes

00:46:22.940 see people

00:46:23.540 coming across

00:46:24.100 that border

00:46:24.540 right now

00:46:25.060 on a live

00:46:25.620 stream but

00:46:26.920 that's not

00:46:27.400 happening.

00:46:27.880 The thing

00:46:28.180 you see

00:46:28.480 with your

00:46:28.780 own eyes

00:46:29.220 right now

00:46:29.760 that's not

00:46:30.560 happening at

00:46:30.980 all.

00:46:32.280 So

00:46:32.520 it's just

00:46:35.980 mind boggling

00:46:36.680 that the

00:46:37.920 government can

00:46:38.460 lie to you

00:46:39.060 that directly.

00:46:41.300 It would be

00:46:41.600 one thing if

00:46:42.160 you couldn't

00:46:42.640 tell it was

00:46:43.320 a lie.

00:46:45.180 Oh my

00:46:45.820 God.

00:46:49.640 Who is

00:46:50.260 winning in

00:46:50.740 Ukraine?

00:46:52.420 Russia or

00:46:53.060 Ukraine?

00:46:56.020 What do you

00:46:56.700 think?

00:46:57.280 Who's winning?

00:46:58.760 Have you

00:46:59.080 noticed that

00:46:59.600 the news

00:47:00.280 has basically

00:47:02.960 just turned

00:47:03.500 that back

00:47:04.060 into fog?

00:47:05.520 So when the

00:47:06.420 whole thing

00:47:06.760 started there

00:47:07.500 was fog of

00:47:08.420 war.

00:47:08.800 You didn't

00:47:08.960 know what was

00:47:09.240 going on.

00:47:09.960 And then it

00:47:10.360 seemed like

00:47:10.720 things cleared

00:47:11.280 up a little

00:47:11.680 bit.

00:47:12.480 It looked

00:47:12.740 like there

00:47:13.040 was going

00:47:13.280 to be

00:47:13.400 some kind

00:47:13.760 of stability

00:47:14.440 where Russia

00:47:15.220 was going

00:47:15.620 to maybe

00:47:16.380 keep the

00:47:16.900 parts that

00:47:17.320 they'd occupied

00:47:18.040 and then

00:47:19.440 maybe Ukraine

00:47:20.340 would keep

00:47:20.740 the rest

00:47:21.280 and maybe

00:47:22.000 that would

00:47:22.320 be how

00:47:23.160 things shake

00:47:23.720 out in the

00:47:24.060 end.

00:47:25.920 But

00:47:26.380 Ukraine says

00:47:28.640 it's doing a

00:47:29.220 counter-offensive

00:47:30.020 in Kyrgyz

00:47:33.020 and if you

00:47:36.620 look at

00:47:36.940 social media

00:47:37.660 people are

00:47:39.260 absolutely

00:47:40.000 convinced that

00:47:40.840 they know

00:47:41.360 which side

00:47:41.920 is winning

00:47:42.340 and why.

00:47:43.860 And they

00:47:44.140 just have

00:47:44.460 completely

00:47:44.940 different takes.

00:47:46.740 So there

00:47:47.560 are a bunch

00:47:47.860 of accounts

00:47:48.360 that say

00:47:48.860 Russia is

00:47:49.820 definitely

00:47:50.140 winning and

00:47:50.640 it's over.

00:47:51.600 But honestly

00:47:52.240 they all look

00:47:52.840 like Russian

00:47:53.480 agents to me.

00:47:56.220 Do you see

00:47:56.880 that?

00:47:57.840 It looks

00:47:58.660 to me

00:47:59.080 like Russia

00:47:59.900 itself has

00:48:00.900 so infiltrated

00:48:01.920 Twitter that

00:48:04.060 whenever you

00:48:04.600 say Ukraine

00:48:05.460 is doing

00:48:05.880 anything right

00:48:06.620 it looks

00:48:08.040 I can't tell

00:48:08.860 I'm not

00:48:09.480 positive

00:48:09.880 but it looks

00:48:11.160 like a bunch

00:48:11.640 of Russian

00:48:12.040 accounts come

00:48:12.680 over and

00:48:13.960 start slapping

00:48:14.820 you down

00:48:15.240 right away.

00:48:16.840 Have you

00:48:17.240 noticed that?

00:48:18.400 Is it my

00:48:18.840 imagination?

00:48:19.900 Because they

00:48:20.240 look like

00:48:20.640 they're obviously

00:48:21.220 not real

00:48:21.700 people.

00:48:22.680 They look

00:48:23.020 like they're

00:48:23.320 obviously Russian

00:48:24.280 operatives of

00:48:25.920 some kind.

00:48:26.880 Or you

00:48:27.980 see the

00:48:28.260 opposite.

00:48:28.780 Somebody

00:48:28.980 says you

00:48:29.380 see more

00:48:29.820 Ukrainian

00:48:30.460 operatives

00:48:31.140 coming in.

00:48:32.020 But you

00:48:32.220 see both

00:48:32.680 right?

00:48:34.740 The Ukrainian

00:48:35.760 ones I think

00:48:36.720 in many cases

00:48:37.440 are just

00:48:37.880 Americans

00:48:38.340 who are

00:48:38.720 pro-Ukraine.

00:48:40.440 But the

00:48:41.120 pro-Russian

00:48:41.680 ones they

00:48:42.680 all look

00:48:43.300 like they're

00:48:43.840 some kind

00:48:45.380 of bot

00:48:45.840 farm.

00:48:47.560 I don't

00:48:48.020 know.

00:48:48.560 It's hard

00:48:48.900 to know

00:48:49.280 because

00:48:50.240 confirmation

00:48:51.160 bias is so

00:48:51.980 strong.

00:48:53.360 But here's

00:48:53.940 things that

00:48:54.660 among the

00:48:55.520 things that

00:48:55.960 you hear

00:48:56.360 there's a

00:48:56.980 Kursan

00:48:57.420 counter

00:48:57.780 offensive

00:48:58.160 that's

00:48:58.620 already

00:48:58.860 broken

00:48:59.220 through

00:48:59.500 the

00:48:59.680 Russian

00:48:59.920 lines

00:49:00.480 or not

00:49:01.720 or nothing

00:49:02.500 like that's

00:49:02.980 happening.

00:49:03.420 That's

00:49:03.580 possible.

00:49:04.720 Or Russia

00:49:05.500 has complete

00:49:06.420 air superiority

00:49:07.520 or not

00:49:09.060 because the

00:49:09.940 Ukrainians do

00:49:10.700 have anti-aircraft

00:49:11.720 that's working.

00:49:13.920 The supply

00:49:14.900 lines are cut

00:49:15.740 for the Russian

00:49:16.540 occupiers or

00:49:17.920 not because

00:49:18.800 they have a

00:49:19.180 land bridge

00:49:19.700 to anything

00:49:20.240 they want.

00:49:20.800 so basically

00:49:23.320 everything that

00:49:24.200 we know

00:49:24.540 about the

00:49:24.940 war has

00:49:26.140 a or

00:49:26.960 not

00:49:27.420 they have

00:49:28.740 to end

00:49:29.020 to it

00:49:29.420 because I

00:49:30.340 don't think

00:49:30.700 we have

00:49:30.960 any information

00:49:31.700 that's useful.

00:49:34.140 I'll tell you

00:49:34.920 what I

00:49:35.720 predict.

00:49:36.780 And by the

00:49:37.080 way, so

00:49:38.340 being the

00:49:38.800 only person

00:49:39.420 I know

00:49:40.040 of, I

00:49:40.940 don't know

00:49:41.260 if anybody

00:49:41.660 else predicted

00:49:42.180 this, at

00:49:42.920 the beginning

00:49:43.300 I said

00:49:43.760 that Ukraine

00:49:44.940 would not

00:49:45.660 easily fall

00:49:46.520 to Russia

00:49:47.060 because Ukraine

00:49:48.220 would have

00:49:48.640 advanced

00:49:49.200 weaponry.

00:49:51.740 So part

00:49:52.540 of Ukraine

00:49:53.100 maybe the

00:49:53.840 most strategic

00:49:54.460 part is

00:49:55.600 occupied, but

00:49:57.160 most of

00:49:57.660 Ukraine looks

00:49:58.320 like it's

00:49:58.740 not under

00:49:59.280 immediate threat.

00:50:01.280 So was

00:50:02.180 my prediction

00:50:02.880 the best

00:50:03.680 of the

00:50:04.720 entire war?

00:50:06.080 I would say

00:50:06.600 yes.

00:50:07.680 I would say

00:50:08.460 although I was

00:50:09.220 not completely

00:50:09.920 right, I

00:50:11.120 was the

00:50:11.500 closest right

00:50:12.440 by far.

00:50:16.240 Well, you're

00:50:17.400 saying I'm

00:50:17.800 wrong, but

00:50:18.300 give me a

00:50:18.700 reason.

00:50:20.060 Is it

00:50:20.620 true or

00:50:21.040 false that

00:50:21.620 Ukraine still

00:50:22.400 exists as a

00:50:23.120 country?

00:50:24.440 True or

00:50:24.860 false?

00:50:25.720 Because the

00:50:26.480 experts said

00:50:27.220 that by now

00:50:27.800 they would not

00:50:28.360 exist as a

00:50:29.040 country.

00:50:29.820 I said they

00:50:30.440 would.

00:50:32.120 How am I

00:50:32.980 wrong?

00:50:35.500 Yes, they'll

00:50:36.100 exist as a

00:50:37.400 country.

00:50:38.380 Yes, I'm

00:50:39.020 right.

00:50:39.840 Or no, they

00:50:40.660 will already be

00:50:41.280 conquered by

00:50:41.840 Russia, where

00:50:43.560 everybody else

00:50:44.360 said.

00:50:45.580 And you

00:50:46.180 still think I'm

00:50:46.740 wrong?

00:50:46.980 Well, what's

00:50:48.840 the argument

00:50:49.240 for that?

00:50:51.300 Now, of

00:50:52.580 course, people

00:50:53.320 keep saying to

00:50:54.020 me, but you're

00:50:54.600 just a

00:50:54.960 cartoonist, so

00:50:56.240 get out of

00:50:56.680 this military

00:50:57.300 stuff.

00:50:58.040 To which I

00:50:58.540 say, you

00:50:59.380 know, you're

00:50:59.740 right.

00:51:00.320 I don't have

00:51:00.960 any military

00:51:01.680 knowledge or

00:51:03.720 background at

00:51:04.580 all, but I

00:51:06.340 was the only

00:51:07.060 one who was

00:51:07.620 right about

00:51:08.100 Ukraine,

00:51:09.840 militarily.

00:51:11.320 That's just

00:51:11.820 a fact.

00:51:13.180 I also had

00:51:14.080 no expertise

00:51:15.620 in politics

00:51:17.500 when I

00:51:18.160 predicted that

00:51:18.800 Trump would

00:51:19.260 win the

00:51:19.640 first time.

00:51:21.400 There are

00:51:21.800 some things

00:51:22.300 that I'm

00:51:23.040 not sure you

00:51:23.500 need to be

00:51:23.860 an expert to

00:51:24.900 predict, because

00:51:25.680 there are macro

00:51:26.940 variables that

00:51:28.560 are so important.

00:51:29.860 And the macro

00:51:30.400 variable, I

00:51:31.300 think, is that

00:51:32.620 nobody could

00:51:33.480 ever conquer a

00:51:34.760 modern country

00:51:35.440 with modern

00:51:35.980 weapons.

00:51:36.560 It's just not

00:51:37.100 a thing anymore.

00:51:37.740 So that was

00:51:39.220 my thinking,

00:51:40.240 that the big

00:51:41.140 picture of

00:51:41.860 modern weaponry

00:51:43.780 was being

00:51:45.000 ignored.

00:51:47.820 So I

00:51:50.700 think there's

00:51:51.980 a non-zero

00:51:52.700 chance that

00:51:53.660 Ukraine is

00:51:54.260 going to

00:51:54.680 degrade the

00:51:55.500 occupation to

00:51:57.380 the point where

00:51:57.920 it won't make

00:51:58.440 sense for

00:51:59.080 Russia to

00:51:59.960 stay.

00:52:00.720 They might

00:52:01.060 stay anyway,

00:52:01.960 because they

00:52:03.380 don't want to

00:52:03.780 look like they

00:52:04.220 retreated.

00:52:05.060 But I've got a

00:52:05.640 feeling that

00:52:06.060 Ukraine can

00:52:06.660 degrade

00:52:07.300 the military

00:52:08.780 assets in the

00:52:09.920 occupied countries

00:52:10.740 just forever.

00:52:11.860 They'll just

00:52:12.180 keep lobbing

00:52:12.820 artillery and

00:52:13.620 drones and

00:52:14.260 missiles there

00:52:14.820 until there's

00:52:15.320 nothing left.

00:52:16.920 Whereas, given

00:52:18.240 that Russia is

00:52:18.980 not trying to

00:52:19.800 conquer the

00:52:20.640 rest of

00:52:21.080 Ukraine,

00:52:22.600 they're just

00:52:23.100 fighting probably

00:52:24.140 the military

00:52:24.740 that's closest to

00:52:25.720 the fighting

00:52:26.100 there, I

00:52:27.540 feel like that

00:52:28.440 gives Ukraine

00:52:29.040 an advantage.

00:52:30.880 Now, not an

00:52:31.800 advantage that I

00:52:32.480 think they will

00:52:32.940 kick Russia out of

00:52:33.900 that territory.

00:52:35.260 So let me be

00:52:35.900 clear.

00:52:36.100 I'm not

00:52:36.720 predicting, I'm

00:52:37.800 not, that

00:52:39.580 Ukraine will

00:52:40.280 recapture the

00:52:41.200 territory.

00:52:42.180 I think that

00:52:42.620 would be a lot

00:52:43.100 to expect.

00:52:44.320 But I do

00:52:45.000 think that

00:52:45.440 Ukraine is

00:52:45.960 just going to

00:52:46.460 pound it

00:52:46.940 down until

00:52:47.460 nobody wants

00:52:48.060 to live

00:52:48.420 there, including

00:52:49.160 the citizens.

00:52:51.020 I think that's

00:52:51.880 going to happen.

00:52:52.580 I think it'll

00:52:52.920 just become

00:52:53.340 unlivable at

00:52:54.200 some point.

00:52:54.880 Probably

00:52:55.180 already is.

00:52:57.260 All right,

00:52:57.600 that's my

00:52:57.940 prediction.

00:53:01.020 So we're

00:53:01.660 watching Biden

00:53:02.380 destroying Europe

00:53:03.320 and much

00:53:03.800 of the

00:53:04.040 world.

00:53:05.500 And I

00:53:06.400 saw an

00:53:06.740 interesting

00:53:07.140 tweet by

00:53:09.680 Nan

00:53:10.180 Hayworth.

00:53:10.880 She said,

00:53:11.380 follow the

00:53:12.480 money.

00:53:14.380 And I

00:53:15.880 thought, that's

00:53:16.440 interesting.

00:53:18.140 Because it's a

00:53:19.200 little confusing

00:53:19.920 about why the

00:53:20.780 Biden

00:53:21.040 administration is

00:53:21.980 acting exactly

00:53:22.820 the way they

00:53:23.360 are with the

00:53:26.240 Ukraine situation.

00:53:27.460 And the only

00:53:28.060 way I could

00:53:28.600 understand it

00:53:29.320 is if there's

00:53:31.240 somehow money

00:53:31.860 involved.

00:53:33.700 And I guess

00:53:34.160 you could say

00:53:34.700 that maybe the

00:53:36.720 Biden administration

00:53:37.400 has to help

00:53:38.140 Ukraine because

00:53:38.940 Ukraine knows

00:53:39.760 too much about

00:53:40.380 the Biden

00:53:40.760 administration.

00:53:41.960 I believe we're

00:53:42.960 being blackmailed.

00:53:43.940 What do you

00:53:44.300 think?

00:53:45.580 I believe the

00:53:46.200 United States

00:53:46.860 government,

00:53:47.680 Biden, is

00:53:48.600 being blackmailed

00:53:49.460 by Zelensky,

00:53:50.840 either directly

00:53:51.620 or indirectly.

00:53:52.520 That doesn't

00:53:53.000 mean he actually

00:53:53.540 said directly,

00:53:54.640 we will do

00:53:55.460 this.

00:53:56.260 But I feel as

00:53:57.200 if Biden knows

00:53:58.060 that if Ukraine

00:53:59.320 goes under,

00:54:00.080 so does he.

00:54:01.620 So I feel like

00:54:02.520 we're fighting

00:54:03.000 Biden's war.

00:54:04.120 It looks like

00:54:05.080 Hunter's war,

00:54:05.760 basically.

00:54:07.140 I think Hunter

00:54:08.260 got us into a

00:54:09.380 war.

00:54:10.840 I think Hunter

00:54:11.800 is going to be

00:54:12.600 the cause of

00:54:13.820 starvation in

00:54:14.720 Europe.

00:54:17.180 Is that too

00:54:19.140 far?

00:54:20.600 I believe

00:54:21.540 Hunter's

00:54:22.160 addiction is

00:54:25.220 actually going

00:54:25.920 to destroy

00:54:26.420 Europe.

00:54:28.060 So you

00:54:29.760 don't think

00:54:30.140 addiction is

00:54:30.680 a problem?

00:54:31.580 There's one

00:54:32.100 guy who was

00:54:32.660 addicted that

00:54:33.380 probably will

00:54:33.920 destroy Europe.

00:54:36.520 Changed the

00:54:37.060 entire global

00:54:38.420 security issue

00:54:39.580 for, I don't

00:54:40.920 know, decades

00:54:41.540 or a hundred

00:54:41.900 years.

00:54:44.220 That's what it

00:54:44.820 looks like to

00:54:45.240 me.

00:54:45.580 It looks like

00:54:45.980 one guy was

00:54:46.640 addicted, and

00:54:47.920 his addiction

00:54:48.540 caused him to

00:54:49.240 have to have a

00:54:49.720 lot of money.

00:54:51.320 And if you're

00:54:52.040 addicted, you

00:54:52.760 can't not have

00:54:53.460 a lot of money.

00:54:54.960 And the only

00:54:55.400 way to get it

00:54:55.980 fast, maybe the

00:54:57.460 amount he

00:54:58.020 needed was to

00:54:59.280 do whatever he

00:54:59.940 did that might

00:55:00.580 have been a

00:55:00.900 little sketchy.

00:55:03.140 So, yeah, I

00:55:05.600 mean, one

00:55:06.260 addict probably

00:55:07.880 destroyed Europe.

00:55:09.620 You know, you

00:55:10.040 don't think one

00:55:10.600 person can make a

00:55:11.440 difference in this

00:55:12.080 world?

00:55:13.340 Well, he's one

00:55:15.260 person, and I

00:55:16.660 think he destroyed

00:55:17.320 Europe.

00:55:17.720 So, there's

00:55:22.700 that.

00:55:24.580 All right, ladies

00:55:25.340 and gentlemen, I

00:55:26.140 believe that

00:55:27.380 concludes my

00:55:28.860 prepared remarks.

00:55:30.840 And so, that

00:55:32.620 brings us to

00:55:33.380 what is it you

00:55:34.220 would want me to

00:55:34.840 say that I

00:55:35.220 didn't say?

00:55:40.660 Anything I

00:55:41.260 missed?

00:55:42.500 Parmesan

00:55:42.920 Patriots.

00:55:51.080 Ukraine and

00:55:52.000 Russia have

00:55:52.500 our number.

00:55:53.140 Maybe.

00:55:57.460 Where are the

00:55:58.220 aliens hiding?

00:56:03.860 Yeah, maybe,

00:56:04.940 Peter.

00:56:05.420 I don't know.

00:56:08.380 Hunter's

00:56:08.820 addiction was

00:56:10.740 caused due to

00:56:11.480 the inability

00:56:11.840 to manage the

00:56:12.440 anxiety of

00:56:12.980 running the

00:56:13.400 corrupt family

00:56:13.920 business.

00:56:19.320 No, you're

00:56:19.940 not the only

00:56:20.380 one.

00:56:22.380 Oh, I

00:56:22.900 haven't heard

00:56:23.260 about Gavis

00:56:23.920 McGinnis, or

00:56:25.060 Gavin McGinnis.

00:56:26.460 I haven't heard

00:56:27.080 anything about

00:56:27.640 that story.

00:56:30.660 Did you ever

00:56:31.320 watch Sam

00:56:31.780 Harris's

00:56:32.300 Clarification?

00:56:33.200 I did not.

00:56:36.560 By the way,

00:56:37.240 there's a

00:56:37.960 movie coming

00:56:39.660 out soon.

00:56:41.620 Larry Elders,

00:56:43.000 it's Uncle

00:56:45.240 Tom 2.

00:56:47.280 Uncle Tom

00:56:48.080 2.

00:56:48.940 And I just

00:56:49.660 started watching

00:56:50.300 it, and it's

00:56:51.100 kind of mind

00:56:51.620 blowing.

00:56:52.300 I've got to

00:56:52.980 admit, like,

00:56:55.520 the first 10

00:56:56.460 minutes of it,

00:56:57.960 well, I've

00:56:58.320 watched more

00:56:58.700 than that.

00:56:59.080 Maybe the

00:56:59.380 first half

00:57:00.740 hour or so.

00:57:03.180 It's

00:57:03.620 mind blowing.

00:57:04.680 I'm not going

00:57:05.320 to tell you why

00:57:05.900 yet.

00:57:06.180 I'll give you a

00:57:06.740 full review when

00:57:07.520 I'm done.

00:57:08.680 But it's

00:57:09.380 mind blowing.

00:57:10.740 it'll fuck

00:57:13.560 you up.

00:57:15.440 If you watch

00:57:16.300 it, your

00:57:16.920 entire sense

00:57:18.000 of what is

00:57:18.840 happening, or

00:57:20.060 what has

00:57:20.660 happened,

00:57:21.340 specifically about

00:57:22.700 black Americans,

00:57:24.000 it completely

00:57:25.120 will change your

00:57:26.060 mind about what's

00:57:26.760 happening.

00:57:28.760 Now, I'm not

00:57:29.800 going to say I

00:57:30.280 agree with all

00:57:31.340 of the

00:57:31.980 editorial.

00:57:33.360 editorial.

00:57:34.480 That's

00:57:34.900 different.

00:57:36.380 It has an

00:57:37.080 editorial edge

00:57:37.900 and a

00:57:38.280 specific, let's

00:57:40.180 say, a

00:57:40.460 specific set

00:57:41.080 of actions

00:57:42.680 that would

00:57:44.280 make things

00:57:44.800 better.

00:57:45.940 And I'm not

00:57:46.560 going to say I

00:57:47.020 back all of

00:57:47.680 that, primarily

00:57:48.900 because it's a

00:57:49.600 religious, sort

00:57:51.580 of a religious-based

00:57:52.540 argument.

00:57:52.900 And since I'm

00:57:54.860 not a believer,

00:57:56.820 if it works, it

00:57:58.040 works.

00:57:58.500 So if it's good

00:57:59.160 for black

00:57:59.600 Americans, it's

00:58:00.480 good for me.

00:58:02.060 So I'm not

00:58:02.800 going to be

00:58:03.040 against it.

00:58:03.680 I just can't

00:58:04.160 make the

00:58:04.440 argument.

00:58:04.720 So it's

00:58:12.320 called Uncle

00:58:13.180 Tom 2, so

00:58:14.260 it's the

00:58:14.580 sequel to his

00:58:15.920 first film,

00:58:16.820 Uncle Tom.

00:58:27.320 Be a

00:58:28.000 believer.

00:58:30.400 I did not

00:58:31.280 get a guitar

00:58:31.900 yet.

00:58:33.000 It'll be my

00:58:33.520 Christmas present

00:58:34.200 to myself.

00:58:35.600 Will the FBI

00:58:36.660 target you for

00:58:37.500 speaking out

00:58:38.100 against government

00:58:39.000 lies?

00:58:40.200 What do you

00:58:40.580 think?

00:58:42.100 What do you

00:58:42.680 think?

00:58:43.840 You know, I

00:58:44.480 thought about

00:58:45.140 maybe using my

00:58:47.480 man cave to

00:58:48.520 invite people in

00:58:50.200 for interviews,

00:58:51.460 and I thought

00:58:52.220 that if I brought

00:58:52.860 people into my

00:58:53.580 home to

00:58:55.740 interview them,

00:58:56.500 I would have

00:58:57.260 to warn them

00:58:58.060 that their

00:58:59.640 communication is

00:59:00.600 not secure

00:59:01.320 in my own

00:59:02.780 home.

00:59:03.100 home, because

00:59:04.880 I thought to

00:59:05.260 myself, who's

00:59:05.900 the most

00:59:06.180 important person

00:59:07.040 I could get,

00:59:07.780 maybe a

00:59:08.300 politician or

00:59:08.900 something, who

00:59:09.280 would come to

00:59:09.680 my house,

00:59:10.580 because that's

00:59:11.120 sort of a big

00:59:11.820 ask.

00:59:12.300 I'm not

00:59:12.580 exactly close

00:59:13.300 to a major

00:59:13.780 metropolitan area.

00:59:15.220 So, but I

00:59:18.360 thought, if it's

00:59:20.140 anybody important, I

00:59:21.600 would have to

00:59:21.960 make sure they

00:59:22.500 didn't tell me

00:59:23.020 anything even

00:59:23.580 privately in my

00:59:24.900 own house.

00:59:25.440 So, my assumption

00:59:27.340 is that my home is

00:59:28.540 not secure, meaning

00:59:30.900 that I could be

00:59:33.380 listened to.

00:59:34.580 Now, keep in

00:59:35.140 mind, I have

00:59:35.620 digital assistants,

00:59:38.720 and I have a

00:59:39.280 bunch of iPads

00:59:40.280 and my phone.

00:59:42.380 It's my

00:59:42.840 understanding that

00:59:44.260 if the government

00:59:44.840 had a reason to

00:59:46.260 listen in, they

00:59:46.940 could do it.

00:59:47.700 Am I wrong?

00:59:48.860 If the government

00:59:49.560 had a warrant,

00:59:52.360 FISA, FISA,

00:59:53.660 could they not

00:59:54.860 get into my

00:59:55.640 Alexa and just

00:59:56.540 listen to me all

00:59:57.280 day long?

00:59:58.500 If they had a

00:59:59.280 reason.

00:59:59.960 Yeah, they could,

01:00:00.520 right?

01:00:01.220 And do you think

01:00:02.040 that the government

01:00:02.660 would have trouble

01:00:03.880 making up a

01:00:05.580 reason for me?

01:00:08.320 I think they

01:00:09.080 could make up a

01:00:09.620 reason for

01:00:09.980 anybody.

01:00:11.940 And do you

01:00:12.540 think a judge

01:00:13.060 would sign it?

01:00:14.660 Obviously, yes.

01:00:16.180 Because we see

01:00:16.980 that judges will

01:00:17.680 sign anything.

01:00:19.980 So, what are

01:00:21.300 the odds that

01:00:22.140 I'm not being

01:00:23.600 targeted, not

01:00:24.420 necessarily by

01:00:24.980 the FBI, but

01:00:26.680 by somebody,

01:00:27.960 either a foreign

01:00:28.640 entity or

01:00:29.380 somebody?

01:00:30.940 Yeah.

01:00:31.260 I live my

01:00:32.320 life as though

01:00:33.460 everything I say

01:00:34.420 is public.

01:00:37.720 Now, that

01:00:38.380 doesn't mean I

01:00:39.160 don't say things

01:00:39.920 that would be

01:00:40.380 embarrassing.

01:00:41.900 I just mean I

01:00:42.680 think I'm

01:00:43.780 completely

01:00:44.200 unblackmailable

01:00:45.360 because there's

01:00:46.540 nothing embarrassing

01:00:47.280 that would

01:00:47.680 embarrass me.

01:00:49.820 You know, like

01:00:50.360 there's stuff that

01:00:51.240 would be

01:00:51.660 embarrassing,

01:00:52.300 thing, but it

01:00:53.980 wouldn't embarrass

01:00:54.500 me.

01:00:55.360 I mean, I

01:00:55.680 would just

01:00:55.920 think it

01:00:56.160 was funny.

01:01:03.000 In the

01:01:03.540 bedroom also,

01:01:04.220 yeah, I mean,

01:01:04.680 I have a

01:01:05.700 digital assistant

01:01:06.460 in my bedroom

01:01:07.080 as well.

01:01:08.180 There's nothing,

01:01:09.580 there's literally

01:01:10.860 nothing that I

01:01:11.540 could imagine

01:01:12.040 that they would

01:01:12.900 surface about

01:01:14.420 me that I

01:01:16.440 wouldn't think

01:01:16.840 is funny,

01:01:17.320 ultimately.

01:01:22.000 Could Trump

01:01:22.860 name the

01:01:23.620 FBI a

01:01:24.560 terrorist

01:01:24.840 organization?

01:01:26.440 I don't

01:01:27.160 think he

01:01:27.500 will.

01:01:28.020 Oh, the

01:01:28.300 Russell Brand

01:01:28.860 thing is

01:01:29.800 unscheduled

01:01:31.740 now.

01:01:33.280 So, a few

01:01:35.800 weeks ago I

01:01:36.580 had a

01:01:37.020 Megyn Kelly

01:01:37.680 podcast

01:01:39.060 semi-scheduled,

01:01:41.740 they got

01:01:42.140 unscheduled,

01:01:42.780 and I

01:01:44.000 had a

01:01:44.240 Russell

01:01:44.460 Brand

01:01:44.880 podcast

01:01:46.600 interview that

01:01:47.300 was semi-scheduled,

01:01:50.040 but now it's

01:01:51.180 unscheduled.

01:01:57.780 Why, you

01:01:58.600 ask?

01:01:59.540 I don't know.

01:02:01.900 I don't know.

01:02:02.720 In the case of

01:02:03.500 Russell Brand, he

01:02:04.480 had some

01:02:05.080 schedule

01:02:06.440 uncertainty,

01:02:07.720 and it didn't

01:02:08.720 work with my

01:02:09.440 schedule availability

01:02:10.540 and uncertainty.

01:02:11.840 So, we had a

01:02:12.600 day picked, but I

01:02:13.460 ended up having to

01:02:14.460 schedule that day

01:02:15.160 for something

01:02:15.560 else.

01:02:17.360 So, it

01:02:19.980 might happen.

01:02:20.980 Either one of

01:02:21.740 them could be

01:02:22.180 rescheduled.

01:02:24.580 I'm not sure I'll

01:02:25.560 do either one of

01:02:26.360 them, though.

01:02:29.080 See, I made an

01:02:30.200 exception in both

01:02:31.060 cases.

01:02:33.040 I've been not

01:02:34.080 doing, I don't

01:02:34.700 know if you've

01:02:35.020 noticed, but I

01:02:35.780 haven't been doing

01:02:36.480 interviews for

01:02:37.880 quite some time,

01:02:38.960 and I wasn't

01:02:40.660 going to do

01:02:41.220 any more.

01:02:42.080 Like, I was

01:02:42.460 just going to

01:02:42.840 stop doing

01:02:43.360 them, unless

01:02:45.440 I'm promoting

01:02:46.020 a book or

01:02:46.500 something.

01:02:46.760 If you're

01:02:47.020 promoting a

01:02:47.520 book, then

01:02:47.920 you've got to

01:02:48.760 do what you've

01:02:49.060 got to do.

01:02:50.020 But I only

01:02:51.400 said yes because

01:02:52.160 they were such

01:02:52.760 prominent podcasts,

01:02:55.620 and they're both

01:02:56.060 people that I

01:02:56.680 respect.

01:02:58.120 I'd love to be

01:02:59.620 on Megyn Kelly's

01:03:00.360 show because I

01:03:00.800 think she's

01:03:01.240 amazing at what

01:03:02.000 she does, and

01:03:03.600 Russell Brand as

01:03:04.360 well.

01:03:05.380 So, I made an

01:03:07.320 exception for both

01:03:08.160 of them, and

01:03:08.600 then they both

01:03:09.120 kind of fell

01:03:10.080 through, and

01:03:10.620 they were just

01:03:11.020 work.

01:03:12.500 Because every

01:03:12.940 time you're

01:03:14.320 negotiating to

01:03:15.100 be on, you've

01:03:15.820 got phone calls

01:03:16.680 and emails, and

01:03:17.980 you've got to

01:03:19.200 set aside a

01:03:19.780 time, and then

01:03:20.620 you can't do

01:03:21.180 anything else in

01:03:21.760 that time because

01:03:22.520 you set it

01:03:22.960 aside, and you

01:03:24.980 can't take a

01:03:25.640 vacation unless

01:03:26.680 you cancel, that

01:03:27.840 sort of thing.

01:03:28.940 So, I feel like

01:03:30.620 maybe I won't do

01:03:31.380 either one.

01:03:32.360 What do you

01:03:32.720 think?

01:03:34.640 Is there any

01:03:35.280 reason I should

01:03:35.860 do any podcast?

01:03:37.040 It's not about

01:03:37.580 them.

01:03:38.160 But should I

01:03:38.860 do any

01:03:39.220 podcasts?

01:03:42.400 Is there any

01:03:43.080 reason?

01:03:45.060 Because I'm

01:03:45.880 really just

01:03:46.280 creating

01:03:46.740 entertainment on

01:03:48.260 another channel.

01:03:49.940 I mean, it

01:03:50.500 would, the only

01:03:52.400 thing I could see

01:03:53.160 that would make a

01:03:53.780 difference, that it

01:03:55.880 doesn't sell books,

01:03:57.660 right?

01:03:57.880 So, if you're

01:03:58.320 thinking, oh, people

01:03:59.100 will buy your book,

01:03:59.820 that doesn't work.

01:04:01.800 It works if you

01:04:02.760 have a brand new

01:04:03.480 book.

01:04:04.220 It doesn't work if

01:04:05.380 you're just a person

01:04:06.040 who has books.

01:04:06.620 And it's not

01:04:08.620 going to drive

01:04:09.160 much traffic

01:04:09.900 here, if that's

01:04:12.020 something I even

01:04:12.600 wanted to do.

01:04:13.780 Have you noticed

01:04:14.320 that I don't

01:04:15.080 promote the

01:04:16.620 live stream as

01:04:17.420 much as you'd

01:04:18.300 expect?

01:04:19.600 I mean, I do a

01:04:20.240 little.

01:04:21.440 Have you ever

01:04:21.840 noticed that?

01:04:22.780 Have you ever

01:04:23.180 noticed the

01:04:23.740 conspicuous lack

01:04:25.040 of promotion for

01:04:26.260 the live stream?

01:04:26.980 I just do the

01:04:29.540 basics, right?

01:04:30.240 I tweet it, blah,

01:04:31.880 blah, blah.

01:04:32.260 I mention if

01:04:32.880 somebody asks.

01:04:34.700 But I don't

01:04:35.640 know if I want

01:04:36.180 it bigger.

01:04:38.300 There's something

01:04:38.900 about the size,

01:04:39.980 the size of this

01:04:41.680 interaction that

01:04:45.080 feels right,

01:04:46.820 right?

01:04:47.560 It's, believe it

01:04:48.580 or not, even with

01:04:49.240 this size of

01:04:49.820 audience, it's

01:04:50.260 still intimate.

01:04:52.080 If I had a

01:04:52.920 million listeners,

01:04:54.640 it would just feel

01:04:55.360 different.

01:04:56.980 I don't think

01:04:58.060 the world would

01:04:58.840 be a better

01:04:59.220 place, necessarily.

01:05:01.580 And as you've

01:05:02.580 noted before,

01:05:04.980 Odin of all

01:05:05.480 says the same

01:05:05.980 thing?

01:05:07.000 Yeah, I'm not

01:05:07.640 surprised.

01:05:10.000 Yeah, I don't

01:05:10.760 want to lose the

01:05:11.460 intimacy that

01:05:12.320 makes this

01:05:13.020 something I like

01:05:14.320 to wake up and

01:05:14.960 do.

01:05:16.540 You know, I

01:05:17.500 say this all the

01:05:18.580 time, but I'm

01:05:19.060 not sure how

01:05:19.440 much you believe

01:05:19.980 me.

01:05:21.580 I do this

01:05:22.820 because I enjoy

01:05:25.340 it and I think

01:05:26.480 it's important.

01:05:26.980 now I also

01:05:29.200 monetize it

01:05:30.100 because, you

01:05:30.820 know, why

01:05:31.040 not?

01:05:32.040 I'm doing it

01:05:32.760 anyway.

01:05:33.180 Why wouldn't I

01:05:33.640 monetize it?

01:05:36.780 But really, at

01:05:37.680 this point, it's

01:05:38.960 about the

01:05:39.440 experience, you

01:05:40.600 know, the

01:05:40.860 shared experience

01:05:41.840 and about doing

01:05:42.780 something useful.

01:05:44.060 So if I can

01:05:44.960 influence the

01:05:45.760 influencers, that's

01:05:47.380 all I need.

01:05:48.640 I don't need

01:05:49.480 10 million

01:05:49.980 viewers.

01:05:51.460 That's not going

01:05:52.140 to help me.

01:05:52.500 You say I

01:05:55.900 could change

01:05:56.400 Russell Brand's

01:05:57.180 mind on some

01:05:57.960 issues?

01:05:59.380 Doubt it.

01:06:01.040 I doubt it.

01:06:03.080 Where do you

01:06:03.780 think we'd

01:06:04.260 disagree?

01:06:06.560 No, I think he

01:06:07.800 has a little bit

01:06:08.440 more fun with

01:06:09.360 maybe some

01:06:10.240 conspiracy theory

01:06:12.940 stuff that I

01:06:16.660 wouldn't disagree

01:06:17.340 with.

01:06:17.780 I just, maybe

01:06:19.800 I wouldn't go

01:06:20.440 as far as he

01:06:21.080 does, but, you

01:06:22.720 know, if it's

01:06:23.560 speculative, there's

01:06:24.640 nothing to disagree

01:06:25.420 with.

01:06:28.060 Have you ever

01:06:28.780 been invited to

01:06:29.700 Bill Maher?

01:06:30.320 I did Bill Maher's

01:06:31.120 show during the

01:06:32.760 first Trump-

01:06:33.720 Clinton election,

01:06:35.300 and on his show,

01:06:36.560 I predicted that

01:06:37.420 Trump would win

01:06:38.260 as did Ann,

01:06:43.220 why am I

01:06:45.300 blanking?

01:06:46.520 Ann Coulter.

01:06:47.100 Ann Coulter also

01:06:48.260 did.

01:06:48.720 She did it

01:06:49.140 before I did.

01:06:50.280 Hers gets all

01:06:50.880 the hits.

01:06:52.420 You know, when

01:06:53.000 they show her

01:06:54.120 predicting that

01:06:54.920 Trump would win

01:06:55.560 and everybody's

01:06:56.080 laughing at her,

01:06:57.840 you know, but

01:06:58.260 they're showing it

01:06:59.280 in the context of

01:07:00.120 she was right

01:07:00.640 after all, they

01:07:01.740 never show mine.

01:07:03.400 I was on his

01:07:04.320 show and I

01:07:04.760 said he'd win,

01:07:06.080 and things got

01:07:07.120 real quiet when I

01:07:07.960 said it, but they

01:07:08.480 didn't laugh,

01:07:09.640 because by the

01:07:10.300 time I was on

01:07:11.060 the show, he

01:07:12.100 had already gained

01:07:12.960 a lot of

01:07:13.340 traction, so they

01:07:15.100 weren't laughing by

01:07:15.920 then.

01:07:17.100 But they got

01:07:17.620 really quiet when

01:07:19.400 I said he's going

01:07:20.060 to win.

01:07:21.060 They got really

01:07:21.720 quiet.

01:07:23.620 Because I think by

01:07:24.440 the time I said

01:07:25.180 it, they were

01:07:25.440 like, oh, really?

01:07:26.640 Maybe.

01:07:33.640 Hold out for

01:07:34.360 Gutfeld.

01:07:35.940 Well, I'll

01:07:36.540 definitely do

01:07:37.140 Greg's show.

01:07:38.260 I mean, I would

01:07:38.640 do Gutfeld just

01:07:40.480 because, for fun,

01:07:42.280 just because I'm

01:07:43.980 friends with him.

01:07:45.540 So that would be

01:07:46.360 fun, I like your

01:07:47.100 show, and I'll

01:07:48.680 probably do that.

01:07:50.380 But I wouldn't

01:07:51.100 count that as

01:07:51.940 like the other

01:07:52.620 podcasts.

01:08:00.300 All right.

01:08:01.900 Let me tell you a

01:08:03.120 strategy that I

01:08:04.120 used that I can

01:08:07.580 now reveal to you,

01:08:08.660 because if I told

01:08:09.600 you before, you

01:08:11.000 would not believe

01:08:11.840 it was a good

01:08:12.660 idea.

01:08:13.660 But now it's

01:08:14.320 obviously a good

01:08:15.100 idea, so I can

01:08:15.800 tell you.

01:08:17.180 Do you remember

01:08:17.880 when I said

01:08:19.520 famously that

01:08:20.600 if Biden got

01:08:23.680 elected, Republicans

01:08:24.640 would be hunted?

01:08:26.680 Anybody remember

01:08:27.320 that?

01:08:28.320 Because it got a

01:08:29.060 lot of pushback.

01:08:31.020 Now, you can see

01:08:32.540 that there's

01:08:33.140 something going

01:08:34.280 on like Republicans

01:08:35.900 being hunted.

01:08:36.860 Now, I'm not a

01:08:38.280 Republican, as you

01:08:39.200 know.

01:08:40.940 I'm not even

01:08:41.740 conservative.

01:08:43.600 But I'm lumped

01:08:44.880 into that group by

01:08:46.320 everybody who's, you

01:08:47.920 know, on the left.

01:08:48.980 So they would assume

01:08:50.000 I'm in the same

01:08:50.520 group.

01:08:51.420 Now, given that I

01:08:53.480 could be in that

01:08:54.200 group of targeted

01:08:55.120 people, what did

01:08:57.980 it buy me to say

01:08:59.920 publicly that

01:09:00.720 Republicans would be

01:09:01.760 hunted?

01:09:03.040 Go.

01:09:03.380 Well, what did

01:09:05.980 I do strategically

01:09:07.340 that protected

01:09:09.360 me?

01:09:13.080 So here's the

01:09:14.060 thing.

01:09:15.260 If you're the

01:09:16.100 person who became

01:09:16.880 famous by saying

01:09:17.900 Republicans would

01:09:19.340 be hunted, they

01:09:21.440 have to do you

01:09:22.320 last.

01:09:24.220 You get that?

01:09:25.880 Because I'm the

01:09:26.740 most famous person

01:09:27.920 for saying that we

01:09:28.880 would be targeted.

01:09:31.440 If they targeted

01:09:33.100 me first, then

01:09:35.360 they would prove

01:09:35.940 I'm right.

01:09:37.420 Right?

01:09:38.300 That's the last

01:09:39.100 thing they want to

01:09:39.640 do.

01:09:40.660 So by being the

01:09:41.740 most vocal person

01:09:43.100 about people on

01:09:44.120 the right or

01:09:44.960 associated with the

01:09:45.840 right being

01:09:46.900 targeted, I

01:09:48.460 largely guaranteed

01:09:49.280 that they'd do me

01:09:50.080 last.

01:09:51.580 Oh, they're still

01:09:52.100 going to do me.

01:09:53.180 They're going to

01:09:53.600 take me out.

01:09:54.420 I'm pretty sure of

01:09:55.260 it.

01:09:55.920 I think they'll at

01:09:56.900 least take me out

01:09:57.900 economically and

01:09:59.500 influence-wise.

01:10:02.080 But they have to

01:10:03.020 wait.

01:10:04.060 If they do me too

01:10:05.240 soon, it's just

01:10:07.100 too obvious.

01:10:08.960 But if they do me

01:10:09.940 last, then there

01:10:11.300 will be nobody

01:10:11.800 left to say, hey,

01:10:13.200 you got rid of

01:10:13.920 that guy.

01:10:14.960 I'll just be the

01:10:15.900 last one.

01:10:17.880 So I feel like

01:10:19.080 they can't do me

01:10:19.920 too soon.

01:10:21.060 Right?

01:10:22.220 Now, they might

01:10:22.780 wait until, like,

01:10:23.740 the presidential

01:10:24.320 election, because

01:10:25.600 getting rid of me

01:10:26.500 before the midterms

01:10:27.560 would make no

01:10:28.180 difference at all,

01:10:29.520 because I'm not

01:10:30.000 really going to have

01:10:30.520 any effect on

01:10:31.100 the midterms.

01:10:32.140 But would I have

01:10:33.220 any effect on the

01:10:34.020 presidential election?

01:10:36.860 Yes.

01:10:38.820 Well, let me ask

01:10:39.720 you.

01:10:41.900 Forget about the

01:10:42.700 past.

01:10:43.860 Let's just say

01:10:44.500 there's another

01:10:45.240 election.

01:10:47.500 Do you think that

01:10:48.340 I could move the

01:10:49.220 needle on a

01:10:50.260 national election?

01:10:52.500 What do you

01:10:53.120 think?

01:10:54.620 Could I

01:10:55.280 personally move

01:10:56.380 the needle on a

01:10:58.520 national election?

01:10:59.360 And remember,

01:11:00.740 national elections

01:11:01.400 are sort of a

01:11:02.260 2% difference?

01:11:04.200 So if you

01:11:04.800 believe that the

01:11:05.420 election would

01:11:05.960 have been a

01:11:07.060 2% difference

01:11:08.120 no matter what,

01:11:10.400 how comfortable

01:11:11.220 are you knowing

01:11:12.040 that I exist?

01:11:14.260 Well, if you're

01:11:14.980 on my side,

01:11:16.020 meaning that you

01:11:16.660 agree with my

01:11:18.420 notions about

01:11:19.040 stuff, then you're

01:11:20.160 probably comfortable

01:11:20.780 with it.

01:11:21.740 But imagine you

01:11:22.600 were on the

01:11:23.060 left, and you

01:11:24.420 came to believe

01:11:25.080 that I actually

01:11:25.780 could move the

01:11:26.580 election by 2%.

01:11:27.680 You would have

01:11:29.080 to get rid of

01:11:29.560 me.

01:11:30.980 Now, I don't

01:11:31.600 know that they

01:11:32.100 believe that.

01:11:33.660 I don't know that

01:11:34.480 there's anybody who

01:11:35.240 would have the

01:11:35.680 power to take me

01:11:36.600 out who believes

01:11:38.040 I could make any

01:11:38.740 difference.

01:11:40.680 What do you

01:11:41.220 think?

01:11:43.340 Do you think that

01:11:44.180 people on the

01:11:44.680 left think I

01:11:45.460 could make any

01:11:46.020 difference?

01:11:46.400 Because I don't.

01:11:47.600 I think the

01:11:48.060 people on the

01:11:48.480 left would

01:11:49.020 consider me

01:11:49.720 irrelevant.

01:11:51.360 But there

01:11:51.860 might be some

01:11:52.720 people on the

01:11:53.460 left who think

01:11:54.920 differently.

01:11:55.280 I'd change

01:11:58.660 your vote,

01:11:59.220 somebody says.

01:12:00.820 Well, let me

01:12:01.540 ask you here.

01:12:02.300 How many of

01:12:03.040 you changed a

01:12:04.520 vote because of

01:12:05.480 me?

01:12:06.800 How many of

01:12:07.540 you changed your

01:12:08.340 vote to Trump

01:12:09.840 because of

01:12:10.420 something I

01:12:10.980 said?

01:12:12.640 It should be

01:12:13.540 mostly not,

01:12:14.360 right?

01:12:16.320 So I'm seeing

01:12:17.140 some yeses

01:12:17.820 sprinkled in with

01:12:18.800 mostly noes,

01:12:19.720 which is what

01:12:20.220 I'd expect.

01:12:21.260 I'd expect

01:12:21.720 mostly no.

01:12:22.300 But you'll

01:12:26.800 see on both

01:12:27.380 platforms there

01:12:28.280 are yeses.

01:12:30.300 And can you

01:12:30.780 see that even

01:12:32.040 with this

01:12:32.860 unscientific

01:12:34.560 sample, you

01:12:36.220 can tell I

01:12:37.760 moved the

01:12:38.160 needle.

01:12:39.880 Because I'm

01:12:40.560 not sure how

01:12:41.060 many other

01:12:41.460 people could

01:12:41.860 have asked

01:12:42.180 that question

01:12:42.700 and gotten

01:12:43.080 any yeses.

01:12:45.320 If Charlie

01:12:46.200 Kirk asked,

01:12:47.240 hey, did I

01:12:47.740 change your

01:12:48.200 vote, would

01:12:49.320 anybody say

01:12:49.840 yes?

01:12:50.140 no, but

01:12:52.500 Charlie Kirk,

01:12:53.340 you changed

01:12:53.700 my mind.

01:12:54.360 Because he's

01:12:54.780 a very

01:12:55.940 prominent

01:12:57.220 political figure.

01:13:00.340 I feel

01:13:00.860 like,

01:13:03.340 yeah, I

01:13:04.900 mean, Joe

01:13:05.600 Rogan.

01:13:06.100 So Joe

01:13:06.500 Rogan said

01:13:07.180 jokingly, but

01:13:08.800 maybe not

01:13:09.260 jokingly, that

01:13:10.540 you should

01:13:10.840 consider voting

01:13:11.600 Republican if

01:13:12.360 you don't like

01:13:12.820 how things are

01:13:13.300 going.

01:13:14.440 Do you think

01:13:14.940 that Joe

01:13:15.420 Rogan can make

01:13:16.440 people vote

01:13:17.240 Republican?

01:13:18.240 And again,

01:13:18.900 just 2% of

01:13:19.980 him, I'm

01:13:20.340 not talking

01:13:20.720 about most

01:13:21.220 people, you

01:13:22.280 think he

01:13:22.580 can move

01:13:23.100 the needle?

01:13:25.260 I'd say

01:13:25.920 yes.

01:13:26.920 Do you

01:13:27.200 think that

01:13:27.740 Joe Rogan

01:13:29.220 almost got

01:13:30.920 cancelled?

01:13:33.160 Yes.

01:13:34.400 So because

01:13:34.960 he can move

01:13:35.660 the needle,

01:13:36.260 and I

01:13:36.520 believe he

01:13:36.880 can, the

01:13:39.100 attempt to

01:13:39.780 cancel him

01:13:40.260 was pretty

01:13:41.040 aggressive.

01:13:42.220 Pretty

01:13:42.500 aggressive.

01:13:43.620 But apparently

01:13:44.380 it failed.

01:13:45.880 He was

01:13:46.360 already too

01:13:46.920 big to get

01:13:47.480 cancelled.

01:13:48.300 And I

01:13:48.600 think his

01:13:48.920 brand helped

01:13:49.600 him.

01:13:50.460 If your

01:13:51.020 brand is,

01:13:52.800 well, I

01:13:53.660 think he

01:13:54.100 just has a

01:13:54.580 hard-to-cancel

01:13:55.320 brand, because

01:13:57.080 he's willing

01:13:59.460 to go

01:13:59.820 wherever the

01:14:01.320 fun is,

01:14:01.840 basically.

01:14:05.420 They tried

01:14:06.040 to cancel

01:14:06.420 him over

01:14:06.740 Ivermectin,

01:14:07.440 yeah.

01:14:10.720 Elon also

01:14:11.480 said to

01:14:11.960 vote Republican.

01:14:13.380 Yeah, I

01:14:13.700 guess he

01:14:13.960 kind of did,

01:14:14.580 did he?

01:14:14.800 is the

01:14:22.100 favorite

01:14:22.540 rapper

01:14:23.040 thing, what?

01:14:25.060 What about

01:14:25.840 Andrew Tate?

01:14:27.420 I believe

01:14:28.220 he's been

01:14:28.960 disappeared,

01:14:30.240 so you can

01:14:30.760 clean your

01:14:31.240 memory, because

01:14:31.780 you're not

01:14:32.920 going to see

01:14:33.240 much of him

01:14:33.700 again.

01:14:34.720 I think.

01:14:36.480 I think he

01:14:37.380 disappeared.

01:14:38.440 again, I'm

01:14:41.700 opposed to

01:14:43.120 the censoring

01:14:43.760 of Andrew

01:14:44.620 Tate, even

01:14:45.280 though he's

01:14:46.220 no friend

01:14:46.660 of mine.

01:14:48.600 I don't

01:14:49.340 like the

01:14:49.900 censoring,

01:14:51.580 but you

01:14:52.160 have to

01:14:52.500 admit they

01:14:52.940 did a good

01:14:53.400 job, right?

01:14:55.900 The social

01:14:56.640 media platforms

01:14:57.440 just completely

01:14:58.260 erased him,

01:14:59.540 and I think

01:15:00.320 that he can't

01:15:01.040 use payment

01:15:01.760 platforms or

01:15:02.560 anything.

01:15:02.800 like he

01:15:03.580 can't do

01:15:04.000 banking, at

01:15:06.660 least for

01:15:07.060 this kind

01:15:07.840 of business.

01:15:12.600 So he's

01:15:13.420 on Rumble,

01:15:14.200 okay.

01:15:15.780 Being on

01:15:16.260 Rumble is

01:15:17.160 a partial

01:15:20.600 solution.

01:15:26.560 Yeah, what

01:15:27.360 happened to

01:15:27.760 the January

01:15:28.180 6th

01:15:28.660 committee?

01:15:31.320 Yeah.

01:15:32.800 What about

01:15:33.720 the, well,

01:15:35.380 you're too

01:15:35.640 nice,

01:15:36.040 Cassandra.

01:15:37.740 What about

01:15:38.420 the January

01:15:39.080 6th

01:15:39.500 committee?

01:15:40.100 Didn't

01:15:40.360 work out?

01:15:43.060 Apparently

01:15:43.540 that didn't

01:15:44.000 work out.

01:15:45.260 So they

01:15:45.640 got to go

01:15:46.000 to the,

01:15:46.520 you know,

01:15:47.500 the Trump

01:15:47.920 security boxes.

01:15:53.240 All right.

01:15:54.520 Yeah, what

01:15:55.140 about the

01:15:55.520 Durham report?

01:15:59.400 Amazing.

01:16:02.800 You missed

01:16:09.000 clipping out

01:16:09.640 voice clone

01:16:10.420 permission.

01:16:11.300 No, I

01:16:11.560 deleted the

01:16:12.280 hot tub video.

01:16:20.580 All right.

01:16:22.300 Did they

01:16:22.920 find the

01:16:23.360 person who

01:16:23.780 leaked the

01:16:24.480 leaked row at

01:16:25.980 the Supreme

01:16:26.420 Court?

01:16:26.660 I doubt

01:16:27.100 it.

01:16:35.720 Can you

01:16:36.300 reframe

01:16:36.720 common sense?

01:16:37.620 I don't

01:16:37.880 know why.

01:16:39.860 I mean, I've

01:16:40.300 said in my

01:16:40.840 books that

01:16:41.380 common sense

01:16:42.000 is an

01:16:42.360 illusion.

01:16:43.680 There's no

01:16:44.200 such thing as

01:16:44.780 common sense.

01:16:48.400 Common sense

01:16:49.080 is what you

01:16:49.560 say when you

01:16:50.060 don't have a

01:16:50.500 reason.

01:16:51.440 You know

01:16:51.800 that, right?

01:16:52.200 You say

01:16:54.180 it's common

01:16:54.620 sense when

01:16:56.020 you don't

01:16:56.280 have a

01:16:56.540 reason.

01:17:02.200 Trump for

01:17:02.820 Speaker of the

01:17:03.360 House, I

01:17:04.140 mean, that's

01:17:04.680 a clever idea

01:17:05.480 because he

01:17:05.860 could be

01:17:06.300 Speaker of the

01:17:06.940 House, but

01:17:07.800 it just

01:17:08.500 doesn't fit

01:17:08.940 his personality.

01:17:18.260 Dow is way

01:17:18.980 down again

01:17:19.380 today.

01:17:20.360 Stocks are

01:17:20.840 down.

01:17:22.200 Will he

01:17:23.500 take your

01:17:23.880 advice, who?

01:17:30.460 Fairness is

01:17:31.220 common sense,

01:17:31.960 right?

01:17:32.180 And fairness

01:17:32.560 is an

01:17:33.000 illusion.

01:17:36.840 All right.

01:17:41.840 Do you

01:17:42.480 mean everything

01:17:42.920 is fixed

01:17:43.500 since the

01:17:43.940 origin of

01:17:44.360 the universe?

01:17:45.680 Yeah, the

01:17:46.280 argument for

01:17:47.120 no free

01:17:47.660 will doesn't

01:17:48.880 mean that

01:17:49.280 everything is

01:17:49.840 fixed since

01:17:50.860 the universe.

01:17:51.520 it just

01:17:51.920 means that

01:17:52.540 even though

01:17:54.160 some things

01:17:54.660 might be

01:17:55.060 random,

01:17:57.480 it just

01:17:58.520 means you

01:17:58.800 couldn't

01:17:59.000 predict

01:17:59.300 them.

01:18:01.540 Anyway,

01:18:02.160 that's

01:18:02.380 boring.

01:18:09.740 Can

01:18:10.280 DeSantis

01:18:10.740 be both

01:18:11.460 VP and

01:18:12.080 Florida

01:18:12.380 governor?

01:18:12.780 No.

01:18:13.360 how low

01:18:17.420 will crypto

01:18:18.040 go?

01:18:19.540 Well,

01:18:20.360 didn't

01:18:20.780 everybody

01:18:21.280 assume that

01:18:22.080 most

01:18:22.520 crypto

01:18:22.940 would go

01:18:23.340 to zero?

01:18:25.540 I mean,

01:18:26.100 everybody

01:18:26.620 believed that,

01:18:27.320 right?

01:18:27.780 So the

01:18:28.240 question is,

01:18:28.780 would there

01:18:29.020 be any

01:18:29.480 that did

01:18:29.920 not go

01:18:30.300 to zero?

01:18:31.140 Would there

01:18:31.560 be any

01:18:31.860 winners?

01:18:33.540 I think

01:18:34.380 Bitcoin will

01:18:35.060 have value.

01:18:35.640 I don't know

01:18:37.160 what else will,

01:18:37.880 but I think

01:18:38.380 Bitcoin will

01:18:39.040 last a while.

01:18:40.260 will Trump

01:18:47.860 run if the

01:18:48.600 House and

01:18:48.980 Senate don't

01:18:49.520 flip?

01:18:49.880 Oh,

01:18:50.020 that's a

01:18:50.280 good question.

01:18:54.100 Would you

01:18:54.640 mind to

01:18:54.960 share the

01:18:55.420 day that

01:18:55.940 Justin

01:18:57.000 died?

01:19:00.100 Not

01:19:00.540 really.

01:19:02.240 I appreciate

01:19:02.980 that you

01:19:03.540 would like to

01:19:03.940 pray for him,

01:19:05.300 but no,

01:19:05.800 I don't want

01:19:06.120 to share

01:19:06.880 that.

01:19:10.260 Nassim

01:19:14.140 Taleb

01:19:14.520 predicted the

01:19:15.380 doom of

01:19:15.820 crypto when

01:19:16.600 it was at

01:19:16.960 his highest.

01:19:18.100 Well,

01:19:19.080 Taleb is

01:19:19.620 really good

01:19:20.140 at getting

01:19:23.400 famous for

01:19:24.100 saying things

01:19:24.620 that are

01:19:24.860 really obvious.

01:19:29.840 I'm not

01:19:30.480 sure where

01:19:30.980 he became

01:19:31.560 an intellectual

01:19:32.440 because the

01:19:33.200 things he's

01:19:33.620 most famous

01:19:34.500 for are just

01:19:35.120 the most

01:19:35.460 obvious things.

01:19:36.880 Now,

01:19:37.180 it could be

01:19:37.640 that they're

01:19:38.020 obvious because

01:19:38.800 he said

01:19:39.240 them.

01:19:40.260 like the

01:19:41.160 black swan

01:19:42.060 idea.

01:19:43.880 I think

01:19:44.520 people knew

01:19:45.300 that there

01:19:46.980 would be

01:19:47.300 big shocks

01:19:48.060 that made

01:19:48.860 most of

01:19:49.300 the difference.

01:19:50.600 I'm not

01:19:50.880 sure he

01:19:51.160 added too

01:19:51.720 much to

01:19:52.200 that,

01:19:53.060 but it's

01:19:53.480 a good

01:19:53.720 concept.

01:19:58.880 The

01:19:59.400 railroads

01:19:59.840 might strike?

01:20:00.680 Oh,

01:20:00.840 great.

01:20:02.560 Read his

01:20:03.040 books?

01:20:03.520 It's different

01:20:03.920 than you

01:20:04.140 think.

01:20:04.360 I've tried

01:20:04.680 to read

01:20:04.940 his writing.

01:20:05.640 It's

01:20:05.980 unreadable.

01:20:07.420 It's

01:20:07.600 almost

01:20:07.820 impenetrable.

01:20:10.260 Do

01:20:14.520 ideas

01:20:15.020 exist?

01:20:15.960 Interesting.

01:20:20.180 Yeah,

01:20:20.540 Taleb is

01:20:21.040 well-respected

01:20:21.740 at the

01:20:22.140 highest levels

01:20:23.180 of finance.

01:20:25.940 By

01:20:26.680 everybody?

01:20:28.360 I don't

01:20:28.720 know.

01:20:28.900 check the

01:20:37.920 most recent

01:20:38.440 video of

01:20:39.760 Satoshi

01:20:40.580 endorsing

01:20:41.680 that.

01:20:45.180 Do you

01:20:45.820 think it's

01:20:46.120 worth reading

01:20:46.680 the great

01:20:47.180 books of

01:20:47.840 the Western

01:20:48.320 world?

01:20:49.000 Nope.

01:20:49.460 I don't.

01:21:00.360 An interview

01:21:01.400 with

01:21:01.760 Naval.

01:21:06.340 People

01:21:07.100 on my

01:21:07.360 own are

01:21:07.680 trying to

01:21:08.000 best

01:21:08.240 back

01:21:08.520 on this.

01:21:10.360 Oh,

01:21:10.900 interesting.

01:21:11.920 So here's

01:21:12.560 a comment

01:21:13.180 on YouTube.

01:21:14.940 It says,

01:21:15.440 I'm a

01:21:15.760 black man,

01:21:16.480 first-time

01:21:16.860 listener,

01:21:17.380 and I

01:21:17.560 have to

01:21:17.820 acknowledge

01:21:18.200 how people

01:21:18.660 in my

01:21:19.020 community

01:21:19.420 are trying

01:21:20.380 the best

01:21:20.840 to backtrack

01:21:22.100 from their

01:21:22.500 support of

01:21:23.000 this

01:21:23.180 administration.

01:21:24.220 Everyone is

01:21:24.700 silent now.

01:21:27.420 Yeah.

01:21:28.240 I think

01:21:28.640 that's,

01:21:29.640 in a way,

01:21:30.220 that could

01:21:30.480 be the

01:21:30.720 biggest story

01:21:31.400 of 2024.

01:21:33.500 I think

01:21:34.620 if Trump

01:21:35.180 tried hard

01:21:37.080 to get

01:21:37.420 the black

01:21:37.820 vote,

01:21:38.900 I think

01:21:39.620 it would

01:21:40.540 be historic.

01:21:41.080 I believe

01:21:43.120 the black

01:21:43.600 vote is

01:21:44.120 completely

01:21:44.800 available

01:21:45.380 for a

01:21:46.480 Republican

01:21:46.920 who just

01:21:47.400 tries.

01:21:48.640 Just try.

01:21:50.200 Just put

01:21:51.140 a serious

01:21:52.120 effort into

01:21:52.800 it.

01:21:53.480 In a

01:21:54.020 Republican

01:21:54.360 way,

01:21:54.800 you don't

01:21:55.120 have to

01:21:55.400 become a

01:21:55.780 Democrat,

01:21:56.600 but just

01:21:56.880 do it

01:21:57.140 in a

01:21:57.860 Republican

01:21:58.280 way.

01:22:00.900 I think

01:22:01.780 it's just

01:22:02.240 a gigantic,

01:22:04.040 gigantic

01:22:04.860 possibility

01:22:07.020 of a

01:22:07.500 shift.

01:22:07.780 The

01:22:11.120 Latinos

01:22:11.720 apparently

01:22:12.260 are coming

01:22:12.740 along for

01:22:13.280 free.

01:22:15.740 You know,

01:22:16.700 I'm trying to

01:22:17.640 think about

01:22:18.100 how many

01:22:18.700 people I

01:22:21.180 know were

01:22:21.880 born in,

01:22:23.880 let's say,

01:22:24.580 Mexico or

01:22:25.360 Central America

01:22:26.200 that I know

01:22:27.580 today,

01:22:28.760 and how many

01:22:29.340 of them I

01:22:29.760 would describe

01:22:30.300 as, like,

01:22:31.440 woke.

01:22:32.780 The answer

01:22:33.220 is none.

01:22:34.420 None.

01:22:35.800 I'm not sure

01:22:36.680 that they're

01:22:37.080 Republican,

01:22:37.780 I don't

01:22:38.360 think they

01:22:38.680 would identify

01:22:39.240 that way,

01:22:40.400 but if you

01:22:40.960 looked at,

01:22:42.700 let's say,

01:22:43.940 their philosophies

01:22:46.560 about things,

01:22:48.560 it maps

01:22:49.500 pretty close

01:22:50.200 to sort of

01:22:50.740 a Catholic

01:22:51.340 sensibility,

01:22:53.520 and so it

01:22:53.860 gets pretty,

01:22:54.560 pretty close

01:22:55.060 to a

01:22:55.340 Republican.

01:22:56.860 And you

01:22:57.480 have a

01:22:58.160 group of

01:22:58.580 people whose,

01:23:00.880 I would

01:23:01.920 say,

01:23:02.300 their view

01:23:03.900 of life

01:23:04.500 is work

01:23:05.940 first.

01:23:07.780 Am I

01:23:08.240 wrong?

01:23:08.860 The people

01:23:09.300 who come

01:23:09.600 to America,

01:23:10.800 most of

01:23:11.600 them,

01:23:12.460 the ones

01:23:12.860 that are

01:23:13.060 coming

01:23:13.300 illegally

01:23:13.700 across the

01:23:14.200 border,

01:23:15.120 it's work

01:23:16.260 first.

01:23:17.700 They're

01:23:18.140 putting work

01:23:18.820 above comfort,

01:23:21.700 country,

01:23:23.380 being near

01:23:24.000 their family,

01:23:26.080 work first.

01:23:27.940 Now,

01:23:28.360 if you're a

01:23:28.860 Republican and

01:23:29.760 you see

01:23:30.120 somebody who

01:23:30.640 is work

01:23:31.300 first,

01:23:32.920 you don't

01:23:33.760 hate them.

01:23:34.200 you do

01:23:36.820 not hate

01:23:37.240 them.

01:23:38.260 You

01:23:38.500 respect

01:23:39.140 that.

01:23:40.400 Now,

01:23:40.840 you might

01:23:41.240 say,

01:23:41.640 I wish you

01:23:41.960 could spend

01:23:42.220 more time

01:23:42.580 in your

01:23:42.800 family,

01:23:43.440 that'd be

01:23:43.820 great.

01:23:44.560 But these

01:23:45.300 are people

01:23:45.780 who are

01:23:46.260 taking the

01:23:46.820 hard choices,

01:23:48.260 and they're

01:23:48.580 doing it for

01:23:49.160 their family

01:23:49.680 and for the

01:23:50.300 future.

01:23:51.140 So they're

01:23:51.420 very future

01:23:52.280 oriented,

01:23:53.520 they've

01:23:53.880 connected what

01:23:54.640 they do

01:23:55.040 today to

01:23:56.200 what the

01:23:56.540 future will

01:23:57.360 bring them.

01:23:58.760 It looks

01:23:59.300 so Republican

01:23:59.940 to me.

01:24:00.900 I mean,

01:24:01.140 it looks

01:24:01.380 super Republican.

01:24:02.300 And like

01:24:05.020 I said,

01:24:05.320 they're not

01:24:05.680 woke.

01:24:06.960 They're not

01:24:07.460 dealing with

01:24:08.120 you used

01:24:08.560 the wrong

01:24:08.960 word.

01:24:10.220 They don't

01:24:10.520 care about

01:24:10.920 any of

01:24:11.140 that.

01:24:12.700 So I'd

01:24:14.040 be amazed

01:24:14.880 if they

01:24:16.000 are not

01:24:16.740 mostly

01:24:17.320 Republican

01:24:17.880 in the

01:24:18.360 future.

01:24:19.380 You're

01:24:19.680 already

01:24:19.880 seeing some

01:24:20.420 shift.

01:24:21.420 But if

01:24:22.020 the Republicans

01:24:22.580 just tried

01:24:23.180 a little

01:24:23.680 bit,

01:24:24.860 a little

01:24:25.560 bit,

01:24:26.680 they could

01:24:27.060 just take

01:24:27.440 a huge

01:24:27.900 chunk of

01:24:28.520 that.

01:24:28.660 And by

01:24:32.520 the way,

01:24:33.080 Trump could

01:24:33.700 just say

01:24:34.060 what I

01:24:34.380 said.

01:24:37.340 You know,

01:24:37.980 the fact

01:24:38.480 that we're

01:24:38.800 trying to

01:24:39.200 keep out

01:24:39.740 people who

01:24:40.420 put work

01:24:41.100 first,

01:24:42.700 you really

01:24:43.460 have to

01:24:43.760 ask yourself,

01:24:44.980 especially

01:24:45.540 when our

01:24:46.200 biggest problem

01:24:46.840 is a

01:24:47.360 collapsing

01:24:47.800 population.

01:24:51.340 According to

01:24:51.960 Elon Musk

01:24:52.620 and a lot

01:24:52.980 of smart

01:24:53.300 people,

01:24:53.780 and it's

01:24:54.000 my opinion

01:24:54.480 as well,

01:24:55.140 we have

01:24:55.640 more risk

01:24:56.240 from a

01:24:56.700 collapsing

01:24:57.140 population

01:24:57.880 than anything

01:24:58.320 else.

01:24:59.400 And here

01:24:59.700 we have

01:25:00.220 millions

01:25:01.420 of people

01:25:02.080 who have

01:25:03.860 a Catholic

01:25:04.740 sensibility,

01:25:06.320 work first,

01:25:08.620 sacrifice to

01:25:09.420 work,

01:25:09.980 because that

01:25:10.660 will build

01:25:10.980 us a

01:25:11.300 future.

01:25:12.340 You don't

01:25:12.720 want those

01:25:13.140 people in

01:25:13.540 your country?

01:25:17.420 If you

01:25:18.100 said,

01:25:18.540 who do you

01:25:18.860 want in

01:25:19.120 your country?

01:25:19.660 I'd say

01:25:20.120 people who

01:25:21.360 have some

01:25:21.980 kind of

01:25:22.300 moral

01:25:22.740 background,

01:25:25.620 and they

01:25:26.740 planned

01:25:27.320 a reasonable

01:25:28.940 plan for

01:25:29.600 their future,

01:25:30.620 and they

01:25:31.300 work really

01:25:31.960 hard to

01:25:32.320 make it

01:25:32.600 happen for

01:25:33.100 the next

01:25:33.420 generation,

01:25:34.400 you're

01:25:34.660 telling me

01:25:35.000 I don't

01:25:35.260 want those

01:25:35.640 people in

01:25:36.060 my country?

01:25:37.620 I want

01:25:38.460 lots of

01:25:38.960 them in

01:25:39.220 my country.

01:25:40.340 Lots of

01:25:40.920 them.

01:25:41.880 More the

01:25:42.460 better.

01:25:43.800 Now,

01:25:44.260 legally,

01:25:44.820 of course.

01:25:45.980 Legally,

01:25:46.580 of course.

01:25:47.900 In fact,

01:25:48.480 here's how I

01:25:49.000 would handle

01:25:49.440 all of

01:25:49.880 immigration.

01:25:50.320 I heard a

01:25:53.680 lot of

01:25:53.860 people

01:25:54.020 complaining

01:25:54.520 about giving

01:25:55.020 illegal

01:25:56.100 immigrants

01:25:56.580 free

01:25:56.920 phones.

01:25:58.260 I'd

01:25:58.700 probably

01:25:58.920 give them

01:25:59.220 free

01:25:59.420 phones.

01:26:00.400 You know

01:26:00.680 why?

01:26:02.140 Because

01:26:02.580 they'll

01:26:02.800 take them

01:26:03.200 and you

01:26:03.440 can track

01:26:03.840 them.

01:26:04.900 You can

01:26:05.480 track them.

01:26:06.400 If you

01:26:06.800 give them

01:26:07.000 a phone,

01:26:07.420 you control

01:26:07.860 them.

01:26:09.260 So I

01:26:09.820 would want

01:26:10.180 to control

01:26:10.600 them.

01:26:11.820 And one

01:26:12.380 way you

01:26:12.760 could game

01:26:13.780 the whole

01:26:14.140 system is

01:26:14.700 just say,

01:26:15.180 let everybody

01:26:15.660 in.

01:26:16.240 Just give

01:26:16.660 them a

01:26:16.900 phone.

01:26:18.200 If we

01:26:18.780 find you

01:26:19.260 without

01:26:19.500 your

01:26:19.720 phone,

01:26:20.320 we're

01:26:21.100 going

01:26:21.220 to

01:26:21.300 arrest

01:26:21.560 you.

01:26:24.960 And just

01:26:25.560 say,

01:26:26.040 you can

01:26:26.420 be here

01:26:26.880 as long

01:26:27.280 as you

01:26:27.500 keep

01:26:27.700 your

01:26:27.880 phone.

01:26:29.460 And if

01:26:29.880 you lose

01:26:30.240 your

01:26:30.400 phone,

01:26:30.700 we'll

01:26:30.880 replace

01:26:31.340 it or

01:26:31.580 whatever,

01:26:32.240 if it

01:26:32.500 breaks.

01:26:33.360 But

01:26:33.560 basically,

01:26:35.100 if you

01:26:35.700 get separated

01:26:36.360 from your

01:26:36.840 phone,

01:26:37.540 like,

01:26:37.900 too far,

01:26:38.780 for too

01:26:39.160 long,

01:26:39.760 it's not

01:26:40.140 like if

01:26:40.500 you forgot

01:26:40.900 it somewhere,

01:26:41.760 but if

01:26:42.000 you try

01:26:42.820 to get

01:26:43.320 rid of

01:26:43.580 your

01:26:43.720 phone and

01:26:44.200 get a

01:26:44.440 regular

01:26:44.680 phone,

01:26:45.460 well,

01:26:45.720 you go

01:26:45.920 to jail

01:26:46.300 or you

01:26:47.320 get

01:26:47.440 deported.

01:26:48.840 But as

01:26:49.160 long as

01:26:49.440 we can

01:26:49.720 keep an

01:26:50.060 eye on

01:26:50.440 you,

01:26:51.100 because

01:26:51.360 here's what

01:26:52.080 you could

01:26:52.360 do if

01:26:52.640 you had

01:26:52.860 an app.

01:26:54.260 So you

01:26:54.560 need an

01:26:54.920 immigration

01:26:55.360 app.

01:26:56.780 Everybody

01:26:57.100 who comes

01:26:57.520 here illegally

01:26:58.280 gets one

01:26:58.820 of these

01:26:59.040 phones.

01:27:00.300 Now remember,

01:27:01.160 if the

01:27:02.020 government is

01:27:02.600 buying them,

01:27:03.100 we're not

01:27:03.320 buying iPhones.

01:27:05.300 You're not

01:27:05.960 buying the

01:27:06.440 $1,200

01:27:06.840 phone.

01:27:07.820 It's probably

01:27:08.240 the $300

01:27:10.320 phone,

01:27:11.060 I don't

01:27:11.240 know,

01:27:11.500 something

01:27:11.720 like that,

01:27:12.420 if you

01:27:12.720 get them

01:27:12.920 in bulk.

01:27:15.380 And then

01:27:15.900 you put

01:27:16.240 on it

01:27:16.660 an app

01:27:17.620 that allows

01:27:18.320 them to

01:27:19.060 get hired

01:27:20.580 by companies

01:27:22.660 that need

01:27:23.040 the labor

01:27:23.400 and also

01:27:24.300 to get

01:27:24.660 paid

01:27:25.000 through the

01:27:25.500 app

01:27:25.720 only.

01:27:27.460 So you'd

01:27:28.180 only be

01:27:28.780 paid through

01:27:29.180 the app.

01:27:29.620 You couldn't

01:27:29.920 get paid

01:27:30.280 any other

01:27:30.700 way.

01:27:31.300 And then

01:27:31.480 the app

01:27:31.820 would be

01:27:32.100 connected

01:27:32.460 to something

01:27:33.180 or it

01:27:33.620 didn't have

01:27:33.940 to be.

01:27:34.160 I don't

01:27:38.400 know,

01:27:38.780 I think

01:27:39.540 you could

01:27:39.940 just

01:27:40.680 literally

01:27:41.100 open the

01:27:41.620 border

01:27:41.840 if you

01:27:42.140 gave

01:27:42.320 everybody

01:27:42.640 a phone

01:27:43.020 because

01:27:44.400 the

01:27:44.680 people

01:27:44.940 who

01:27:45.100 were

01:27:45.240 doing

01:27:45.460 bad

01:27:45.780 stuff,

01:27:46.200 you'd

01:27:46.340 find

01:27:46.580 them.

01:27:50.120 Now,

01:27:50.620 of course,

01:27:51.200 the criminals

01:27:51.740 would get

01:27:52.300 in that

01:27:53.720 way,

01:27:54.280 but I

01:27:54.680 feel like

01:27:55.020 they're

01:27:55.160 getting

01:27:55.380 in anyway.

01:27:57.340 If

01:27:57.780 there's

01:27:57.980 nothing

01:27:58.200 you can

01:27:58.580 do

01:27:58.740 about

01:27:58.920 the

01:27:59.080 criminals

01:27:59.400 getting

01:27:59.680 in,

01:27:59.980 maybe

01:28:00.160 you

01:28:00.340 just

01:28:00.540 have

01:28:01.840 to

01:28:02.100 do

01:28:02.880 something

01:28:03.180 else.

01:28:04.160 All right,

01:28:06.120 just an

01:28:07.500 idea.

01:28:07.940 I don't

01:28:08.180 think it's

01:28:08.520 necessarily

01:28:08.920 the best

01:28:09.300 idea in

01:28:09.640 the world,

01:28:10.000 but I'll

01:28:10.180 put it

01:28:10.400 out there.

01:28:11.940 Warren

01:28:12.160 Buffett

01:28:12.460 is 92

01:28:13.040 today.

01:28:14.780 Boy,

01:28:15.400 you know,

01:28:15.620 about

01:28:15.880 probably

01:28:17.880 20 years

01:28:18.860 ago,

01:28:19.140 I sold

01:28:19.520 my

01:28:20.280 Berkshire

01:28:21.720 Hathaway

01:28:22.200 stock

01:28:22.660 because I

01:28:23.780 thought

01:28:24.000 Warren

01:28:24.360 Buffett

01:28:24.680 couldn't

01:28:24.960 last that

01:28:25.400 long.

01:28:26.260 I thought

01:28:26.840 that when

01:28:27.100 he dies,

01:28:27.640 the stock

01:28:28.020 will tank,

01:28:29.060 even though

01:28:29.540 there's no

01:28:29.840 reason for

01:28:30.380 it because

01:28:30.820 the company

01:28:31.580 would be

01:28:32.300 solid.

01:28:32.640 But I

01:28:34.140 thought

01:28:34.340 emotionally

01:28:34.920 that stock

01:28:35.620 would tank

01:28:36.040 when he

01:28:36.340 died.

01:28:36.720 Now he's

01:28:36.940 92 and

01:28:37.600 he's still

01:28:37.900 going strong.

01:28:40.160 So I

01:28:40.800 guessed

01:28:41.000 wrong.

01:28:43.380 How do

01:28:43.680 you feel

01:28:44.140 about

01:28:44.440 surgically

01:28:45.120 transitioning

01:28:45.920 minors?

01:28:47.000 Really?

01:28:47.340 Really?

01:28:49.320 Really?

01:28:52.600 What do

01:28:53.240 you think I

01:28:53.700 feel about

01:28:54.180 that?

01:28:55.560 Surgically

01:28:56.080 transitioning

01:28:57.340 minors?

01:28:58.960 Like,

01:28:59.240 just guess.

01:29:00.060 what do

01:29:01.780 you think

01:29:02.020 my opinion

01:29:02.460 on that

01:29:02.880 is?

01:29:04.680 Because

01:29:05.240 that's not

01:29:05.640 about

01:29:05.900 LGBTQ.

01:29:07.820 I'm very

01:29:08.600 pro-LGBTQ,

01:29:10.160 but that's

01:29:10.920 not an

01:29:11.180 LGBTQ

01:29:11.660 question.

01:29:13.900 That's a

01:29:14.420 child question.

01:29:17.440 It has more

01:29:18.040 to do with

01:29:18.620 how do you

01:29:19.180 handle children

01:29:20.140 going through

01:29:20.960 phases and

01:29:22.640 stuff.

01:29:23.700 Yeah.

01:29:24.520 No,

01:29:25.040 that's

01:29:25.280 obviously

01:29:25.840 wrong.

01:29:26.260 I won't

01:29:28.800 even have

01:29:29.120 an argument

01:29:29.540 with somebody

01:29:30.120 who says

01:29:30.440 you should

01:29:30.900 transition

01:29:32.640 children.

01:29:35.440 To me,

01:29:36.480 that's

01:29:36.680 as soon

01:29:39.340 as you

01:29:39.700 say the

01:29:40.540 statement

01:29:40.960 somebody

01:29:42.300 wants to

01:29:42.980 chemically

01:29:43.580 transition

01:29:44.260 children to

01:29:45.140 another

01:29:45.420 gender,

01:29:46.960 I don't

01:29:48.240 even want

01:29:48.600 to have a

01:29:48.900 debate about

01:29:49.400 that.

01:29:50.280 That's

01:29:50.560 just no.

01:29:52.320 No.

01:29:54.080 Right?

01:29:54.640 There's

01:29:56.000 no details.

01:29:57.300 No.

01:29:58.600 Nope.

01:29:59.160 Nope.

01:29:59.660 Nope.

01:30:00.040 Nope.

01:30:00.380 Nope.

01:30:00.540 Nope.

01:30:04.720 You know,

01:30:11.500 people who

01:30:11.940 argue it

01:30:12.340 online,

01:30:13.000 well,

01:30:13.320 let me tell

01:30:14.160 you this.

01:30:16.000 Are there

01:30:16.740 people that

01:30:17.480 you absolutely

01:30:18.400 can tell

01:30:19.300 are not

01:30:22.200 going to be

01:30:22.540 happy in the

01:30:23.220 gender they're

01:30:23.720 in?

01:30:23.860 And can

01:30:24.320 you tell

01:30:24.780 if they're

01:30:25.280 13?

01:30:26.660 What do

01:30:26.960 you think?

01:30:27.840 Do you

01:30:28.120 think there

01:30:28.460 are some

01:30:28.860 people that

01:30:30.640 absolutely

01:30:31.500 would benefit

01:30:32.560 from the

01:30:33.680 transition?

01:30:35.280 Some.

01:30:37.500 No?

01:30:40.700 Nobody?

01:30:42.880 Here's my

01:30:43.660 view.

01:30:44.740 I believe

01:30:45.320 absolutely

01:30:46.320 there are

01:30:47.680 some people

01:30:48.200 who would

01:30:48.540 benefit from

01:30:49.340 the transition

01:30:50.280 as children.

01:30:51.000 I do.

01:30:53.920 Here's the

01:30:54.480 problem.

01:30:55.680 You don't

01:30:56.060 know which

01:30:56.380 ones they

01:30:56.780 are.

01:30:58.400 You don't

01:30:58.900 know which

01:30:59.280 ones they

01:30:59.700 are.

01:31:00.500 So it

01:31:00.820 has to be

01:31:01.360 a solid

01:31:01.940 no,

01:31:02.460 no way,

01:31:03.500 no how,

01:31:04.800 nope,

01:31:05.160 nope,

01:31:05.400 nope.

01:31:05.980 It's

01:31:06.360 exactly the

01:31:07.000 same as

01:31:07.860 statutory

01:31:10.160 rape.

01:31:10.680 Do you

01:31:12.640 think that

01:31:13.120 every 16

01:31:14.580 year old who

01:31:15.360 has sex with

01:31:16.120 somebody who's

01:31:16.620 over 18 is

01:31:18.060 damaged for

01:31:18.820 life?

01:31:20.080 The answer

01:31:20.820 is no,

01:31:22.480 no.

01:31:24.300 But should

01:31:24.800 you therefore

01:31:25.400 make it legal

01:31:26.260 for adults to

01:31:27.060 have sex with

01:31:27.640 children?

01:31:28.280 No,

01:31:29.140 no,

01:31:30.460 because you

01:31:31.020 don't know

01:31:31.400 which ones

01:31:32.060 are going to

01:31:32.900 be perfectly

01:31:33.520 fine and

01:31:34.680 which ones

01:31:35.160 will be

01:31:35.500 damaged for

01:31:36.100 life.

01:31:37.140 So that's

01:31:37.540 just a no,

01:31:39.140 right?

01:31:39.880 If you're

01:31:41.020 dealing with

01:31:41.380 children,

01:31:42.300 there are a

01:31:42.680 lot more

01:31:43.020 situations which

01:31:43.920 are just

01:31:44.300 no.

01:31:45.860 So even

01:31:46.460 if you spot

01:31:47.080 that 13

01:31:47.780 year old

01:31:48.160 where you're

01:31:49.160 positive and

01:31:50.020 all the

01:31:50.340 doctors are

01:31:51.040 positive that

01:31:52.320 this kid would

01:31:52.920 be better with

01:31:53.460 the transition,

01:31:54.880 still no.

01:31:56.580 Still no.

01:31:57.720 Because they

01:31:58.020 can do it

01:31:58.420 later.

01:31:58.860 Just wait a

01:31:59.280 few years,

01:32:00.780 remove all

01:32:01.320 doubt,

01:32:02.740 if that makes

01:32:03.220 sense to me.

01:32:04.480 Because I

01:32:05.060 don't think you

01:32:05.740 want to take

01:32:06.100 the chance of

01:32:06.820 that one

01:32:07.260 person being

01:32:07.900 transitioned who

01:32:08.900 shouldn't have

01:32:09.460 been.

01:32:10.280 That's just

01:32:10.780 way too big

01:32:12.220 a risk,

01:32:13.220 in my view.

01:32:14.880 So no.

01:32:16.320 That's my

01:32:16.780 answer.

01:32:17.080 Even though

01:32:17.900 I will

01:32:18.400 allow,

01:32:19.220 I will

01:32:20.020 allow that

01:32:20.520 that would

01:32:20.860 be a

01:32:21.360 burden on

01:32:21.960 some people.

01:32:23.440 I will

01:32:23.820 allow that

01:32:24.400 there's no

01:32:25.460 100%

01:32:26.000 clean answer.

01:32:27.060 But there

01:32:27.380 is a

01:32:27.620 clean policy.

01:32:29.740 Knowing what

01:32:30.200 to do about

01:32:30.800 it I think

01:32:31.180 is easy.

01:32:32.980 But if you

01:32:33.660 go further

01:32:34.220 and say that

01:32:35.100 will be good

01:32:35.680 for everybody,

01:32:36.480 that's a

01:32:36.820 little too

01:32:37.080 far.

01:32:38.200 You have

01:32:38.760 to accept

01:32:40.040 that somebody

01:32:40.540 is going

01:32:40.820 to pay the

01:32:41.220 price for

01:32:41.600 that.

01:32:44.420 All right.

01:32:45.380 That's all

01:32:45.820 for now.

01:32:46.340 I'll talk

01:32:47.740 to you

01:32:48.020 YouTube

01:32:48.320 tomorrow.
