Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1997 Scott Adams： Today I Explain The Excess Mortality Numbers Like You Have Never Seen

00:00:00.000 good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of civilization it's called coffee

00:00:10.240 with scott adams there's never been a finer experience in your entire life and if you'd

00:00:15.720 like to experience this at the peak possible pinnacle i just ran out of things to say at the

00:00:24.440 end of the sentence well all you need is a cup or mug or a glass or tank or chalice or stein a

00:00:28.980 cantijug or flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join

00:00:36.020 me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine hit of the day the thing that makes everything

00:00:40.560 better and because of my shirt it's the zelinski sip go matt matt just made it everybody matt's here

00:00:54.200 we're going to start all over matt it's a good thing you made it

00:00:58.360 no we're not going to start all over or are we well what's going on today let me tell you

00:01:10.000 here's how you know it's a slow news day a lot of people are talking about george santos

00:01:20.580 you know george santos he's a republican but he may have told some whoppers about his resume

00:01:27.380 maybe but the funniest part about it is that he's a gay republican and the republicans are you know

00:01:35.740 totally protecting him because yeah they like republicans but everything about this story is

00:01:41.020 just funny but it doesn't really matter is it really a big story that a liar got into congress

00:01:48.260 oh no how how will the republic survive that one liar in congress if only they could get rid of

00:01:58.600 george santos and have a non-lying congress hey wouldn't that be something

00:02:04.780 yeah let's get rid of that one liar 1.00

00:02:08.060 i think if we do that we'll be in good shape well here's my macro observation

00:02:15.100 does it seem to you like the news got suddenly really slow am i right like all the news is just

00:02:25.240 yesterday's news repackaged a little bit there's something coming there's something really big

00:02:33.900 coming and i don't know what it is i don't have a guess probably political but there's no way that

00:02:41.180 we're going to have you know another week of no news that we're not going to have a full week of no

00:02:46.860 news and everything is just a repeat like you know oh the uh the government's going to be shut down

00:02:54.440 because of the debt ceiling how many times have we done the same story is it every year and then

00:03:02.060 who will blink first and who is winning the shutdown and everybody hates everybody because of the

00:03:08.240 shutdown and and then once the shutdown happens what does everybody say let let's do the entire

00:03:14.040 npc gamut okay the npcs the non-player characters if we're a simulation are the ones who say

00:03:23.940 only the most obvious thing all right so let's i'll give you a topic and then you tell me what the

00:03:30.140 npcs say and we'll play along at the same time all right the most obvious thing to say about another

00:03:36.220 battle over the debt limit oh why don't we have a line item veto why don't we have a balanced budget

00:03:45.000 required why don't we cut the uh the pay of the members of congress and then of course my favorite

00:03:53.260 the government shut down i didn't even notice maybe it's an improvement maybe we should shut

00:03:59.420 the rest of it down and then of course we have to talk about who won and who blinked and who lost

00:04:07.020 nobody's winning nobody's losing they're all just playing the same game how does anybody win or lose

00:04:15.020 i don't know we're just gonna get bored by the whole thing they're gonna pass some continuing resolution

00:04:21.760 or something we don't understand that we're gonna keep spending our money but uh not much of a story

00:04:27.600 there but here's an interesting thing i saw on twitter today in a twitter account by dumasani washington

00:04:36.800 who says over two million i think there was an article in the hill oh yeah the hill over two million

00:04:43.760 students have left public school in the last two years and many are now homeschooled including over

00:04:50.480 16 percent of black households which is the largest percentage of any ethnic group did any of you know

00:04:57.360 that did you know that the uh the black uh american kids are going to homeschool at a higher rate than

00:05:05.040 others what a great trend now that should be like the headline shouldn't it is there anything

00:05:12.800 happening right now that would be like new you know that we haven't already talked to death but also

00:05:18.560 could be like a wonderful thing so here's here's my argument why uh helping the young black population

00:05:25.760 of america is the biggest lever we have for improving the country because they're in the deepest hole

00:05:32.560 right if you help the people who are in the deepest hole you can maybe move them from you know

00:05:38.640 depending on the system to making money and supporting the system and it's a way better benefit

00:05:45.040 if you take somebody from you know costing money to making money as opposed to taking somebody who's already

00:05:51.760 making money and you know they do 20 better that's a much smaller gain for society than helping somebody

00:05:58.480 go from unemployed to employed that's a that's a big thing so it looks like the you know maybe the free market

00:06:07.040 and maybe some other forces are causing a trend that would be very beneficial for black americans and that would be

00:06:15.200 amazing for everybody in america so how about that just unambiguous good news

00:06:22.000 does that feel good just unambiguous good news black americans are taking up homeschooling at higher rates than other people 0.54

00:06:29.200 good and so that's that's exactly what i want to see in america so maybe more of that we'll see that

00:06:39.200 um rasmussen did some polling about this debt ceiling and the shutdown stuff 56 percent prefer the shutdown

00:06:48.720 so that that's how congress is doing 56 of us would rather just close the entire stuff just just close

00:06:56.560 it all down ah forget it but i think people like the fight they just don't know what to do about it

00:07:03.120 it's just not easy to to fix the problem because we have a system problem it's not really a person

00:07:08.560 problem is it wouldn't you agree it's a system design problem that gets us to the same place all the time

00:07:15.840 you could replace all the people in it you know you could do term limits get rid of everybody tomorrow

00:07:21.360 but then it would just quickly re-evolve back to where it is so we do need a system change i don't

00:07:29.040 think it's a personnel change i think it's got to be a system change so if you saw a person who had any

00:07:35.600 influence who said i recommend a different process except for the line item veto that's never going to

00:07:40.960 happen you know we could talk about it all day i guess but uh we need if somebody's saying do something

00:07:47.760 differently i would i would certainly listen to that but if everybody is just oh do it our way do it

00:07:54.000 our way pass this bill don't pass this bill it's all just nothing yeah and again uh yeah we'll do

00:08:01.680 we'll we'll talk about that story don't worry uh every day i find myself waking up being a little bit

00:08:10.480 amazed that matt gates has renewed himself politically is anybody as surprised at that as i

00:08:18.640 am i've never seen anything like that like the the rapidity of which he went from you know politically

00:08:24.880 dead to maybe the only person in the on the republican side you care about lately he's the only one who did

00:08:31.440 anything good lately carpe can we shut down the government indefinitely and salt the earth see

00:08:38.640 it's very popular we want them to fail even though we don't really so maybe gates is the only kind of

00:08:45.680 person who could you know maybe suggest something that's out of the box because everybody else seems

00:08:50.240 to be in the box like the most dangerous person in the world in congress like mansion in cinema because

00:08:58.400 they have the ability to get out of their box and now matt gates they're basically three people who

00:09:04.000 could run congress because everybody else decided not to the three who took leadership because they

00:09:11.760 could and apparently they want to be leaders they actually want to do it and so they are three most

00:09:18.800 three most important people in congress um although i think thomas massey is a is a sleeper you

00:09:26.960 are you all are you all watching him because he he sort of quietly stays rational and consistent

00:09:35.680 which always makes him sort of an outcast in the the bigger conversations like whoever's been

00:09:40.720 trying to just be rational gets really ignored because they don't they don't create a lot of energy

00:09:47.040 but but there's like a if here's something to keep an eye on it's he's a sleeper because he just

00:09:54.160 continues to be smart and right like every day well that wasn't very interesting but he was smart and

00:10:03.520 he was right and then tomorrow okay new topic well there's that smart guy being right again you know

00:10:11.520 didn't get a lot of attention but there he is smart and right but once again so you know here's my

00:10:21.120 long-range prediction he might be i hate to use this term because don't make too much of the analogy

00:10:28.320 he might be the bernie sanders of the republicans

00:10:31.760 meaning that you know bernie was like a weirdo until his time came and then he was you know the star

00:10:38.400 i think massey's you know like in this odd little category of trying to be rational and helpful

00:10:43.840 and like nobody even knows what that looks like who's this rational helpful guy why why does he

00:10:49.600 keep saying rational helpful things that's no good but i feel like his time will come

00:10:55.680 if he stays in that job i don't know if he will

00:10:59.840 so i think things are going to catch up with him he doesn't need to catch up with them all right but so

00:11:05.200 let's see who's uh uh 21 of according to rasmussen 21 of the uh people polled think taxpayers are more

00:11:14.720 to blame for the size of the deficit than congress

00:11:20.720 21 think it's taxpayers problem not congress

00:11:26.320 that's a little low i would have expected at least four basis points on that

00:11:30.000 i would have expected 25 that's just me yeah all right um in case you wondered if we lived in a

00:11:38.800 simulation um we keep seeing little hints little hints and yesterday there's a tragic story of uh

00:11:47.520 a fox news weatherman who was riding the subway and he saw some teens picking on an elderly guy and

00:11:55.840 he got involved so we like that right he he he took uh took initiative and tried to stop an old man

00:12:03.760 from being abused on the subway this caused the teens to turn on him and beat him quite badly

00:12:10.320 so he got the crap beat out of him on the on the subway he was outnumbered now uh the name of this

00:12:17.920 weatherman this fox news weatherman is uh adam his first name is adam his last name is klotz

00:12:24.080 k-l-o-t-z k-l-o-t-z so um i believe i believe there was some bleeding involved but the good news is

00:12:34.960 adam klotz so he's fine he's fine because adam klotz but

00:12:44.160 why is he in the news at the same time i am

00:12:46.320 like what are the odds what are the odds that he would be like a national story at the same time

00:12:54.880 you know people are uh all riled up about my recent vaccination statements which are not really

00:13:02.560 vaccinations are they we'll talk about that how many of you saw on twitter a uh tweet and a video

00:13:12.080 of a woman who claims that she got the vaccination and it's it gave her like some kind of permanent

00:13:19.440 shakes and she was trying to walk and she was she was shaking badly how many of you saw that

00:13:26.080 so uh yeah it's going all over the internet and uh of course because it's the internet and nobody holds

00:13:35.920 back on twitter people were brutal saying that she was faking the the number of people who said this

00:13:43.760 is a fake video you're faking and uh to the point to the point where twitter actually put a context

00:13:51.600 warning on it saying there's no evidence that this really happened apparently somebody checked in whatever

00:13:59.680 state or location allegedly this happened and there was no report of it but who knows so i don't i don't

00:14:06.000 believe the context and i don't believe the video but here we are we're at a point where nothing's

00:14:14.080 believable just nothing so when i saw the video i didn't think it was true or false i just sort of

00:14:21.360 ignored it but it became a big story so i guess i'm past believing things are true because they're on video

00:14:28.320 how many of you immediately think a video is real and how many of you automatically say probably not

00:14:37.440 even if it's a video i'm kind of getting to the point where any video looks fake to me like as my

00:14:43.920 default speaking of fake videos you know the famous picture of uh prince uh who is he andrew uh the one who was

00:14:55.600 photographed uh hugging virginia jeffrey or whoever she was the epstein the young epstein uh girl slash

00:15:05.840 woman and apparently uh uh maxwell is saying from jail allegedly that she believes that photo was 0.61

00:15:16.720 photoshopped and that she has no memory of those two ever being together now she's not denying

00:15:22.560 you know the the general scheme of things so she's not she's not saying that that those two weren't

00:15:30.160 part of their operation she's saying that um that the photo is not real but that the two people were

00:15:38.480 actually part of it so if she were denying that the two people were even there then i'd say okay that's

00:15:45.120 i mean that's a lot i'm not sure i would buy that but she's accepting that they were both there

00:15:50.720 and but maybe at different times and she thinks it was a fake photo now apparently some experts think

00:15:57.360 so too there's no original nobody's ever seen the original and some some people who know how to spot

00:16:05.920 fakes think it actually looks fake now i looked at it today and you can see that you know there's a hand

00:16:13.200 around her waist and looking at the hand and i thought to myself you know i could actually see

00:16:19.120 that as fake yeah i think she was she was allegedly 17 in the photo so so what do you call a 17 year

00:16:29.120 old is she a girl or a woman what's the standard on that obviously legally she's not of age but 0.87

00:16:35.760 oh young woman let's go with young woman yeah young young woman is better right young woman yeah girl 1.00

00:16:43.040 just seems too dismissive all right um so the biggest news yesterday turned out to be me

00:16:56.560 um so i just had the weirdest experience the last day or so now you're you're probably aware that i

00:17:07.120 declared that the unvaccinated uh the un-covid vaccinated are are the winners of the pandemic

00:17:15.440 that they got the right answer because if i had gotten to this point where you know omicron is even

00:17:21.600 decreasing and and if i could be unvaccinated i would have one less thing to worry about right

00:17:30.080 so compared to how i played it i got to the end of the pandemic but i have something in me that i

00:17:38.000 don't know if there could be any long-term implications if you got to the end of the pandemic

00:17:43.600 and you have nothing unusual in you and you also are alive i conclude that you were the smartest ones

00:17:53.280 fair and but here here's the interesting thing that happened and i i totally didn't see this coming

00:18:03.360 people people showed me so much love in the last day and a half i've never seen anything like it

00:18:09.520 it now you you know maybe you're unaware of it because most of it came in like dms and privately

00:18:15.200 and stuff but i didn't know what would happen you know i wasn't sure what happened when i said that

00:18:22.720 publicly but it turns out it was all positive there were there were a few people who you know like were

00:18:29.600 a little niggling about you know why didn't i get there faster or what took me so long but basically

00:18:35.600 everybody was happy that i had you know made that shift in public opinion but what is weird is that

00:18:43.680 i didn't get any pushback from what you might call pro-vaccination people none is that weird

00:18:53.200 not a single i didn't see an article to criticize me nothing yeah now alex berenson had some snipey words

00:19:03.040 but he was happy that what i said so so even even you know somebody you expect to be your biggest

00:19:11.280 critic was like happy at least where i ended up on it now here was the interesting thing a number of you

00:19:17.120 said uh both publicly and privately to me that it must have been really embarrassing for me to

00:19:25.440 to do what i did to say that the unvaxxed are the winners and other people said it must have been a

00:19:31.920 difficult day for me must have been really hard for me to say that other people said you know i must

00:19:38.880 have must have been tough for my ego and others wondering you know what it was like for me to be

00:19:45.680 eating crow did anybody think i had a hard day for the last day and a half how many thought i was

00:19:53.280 having a hard day i was having a great day i had nothing but compliments all day

00:19:58.560 now the other thing is people wondered how hard it was for me to make the decision like did i agonize

00:20:06.160 about it let me tell you honestly god this is this is a completely true i didn't think about it much

00:20:17.840 i think i thought of all of five minutes i thought oh you know things have changed now we know more

00:20:24.000 you know where you know things keep revealing themselves in small bits and we seem to be at

00:20:30.480 sort of the end of the pandemic and i was just sitting there at one moment i thought oh okay time to

00:20:36.720 revise my revise my uh you know current uh understanding of things it took no it took no work at all

00:20:46.720 i had no friction do you believe that because i think you're putting yourselves in my seat and you're

00:20:54.240 saying this would have been hard for me it wasn't hard at all there was no friction and do you know why

00:21:00.400 there was no friction do you know why do you know why it was so easy and it was only a good day

00:21:07.440 it was easy because i was never contradicting myself

00:21:20.080 i've always said that as as information becomes available i will reassess my beliefs and i've always

00:21:28.320 said that on anything on anything that if i'm wrong i'd like to be wrong in public

00:21:34.160 because what i primarily what i do is talk about how to how to analyze the news and who's getting

00:21:40.320 the right answer and how they did it and you know what was your analytical process and why did it beat

00:21:46.000 this analytical process so if i if i analyze something wrong and then tell you about it that's just what

00:21:53.680 i do like i don't have i had no obstacle i had literally no obstacle to changing my mind in public

00:22:01.600 because that's that's the environment i had created so i didn't have any any risk but it's interesting

00:22:09.680 that how many of you thought that it would be daring and brave to change my mind about something in public

00:22:19.040 it's easy it's really easy now the other superpower i have which i talk about a lot in fact my upcoming

00:22:26.800 book i talk about this quite a bit if you can learn to be free of embarrassment it's like a freaking

00:22:32.800 superpower because you know today like my twitter followers are way up my my traffic here is up

00:22:40.800 everybody complimented me yesterday but what i did was something that most of you would have considered

00:22:47.200 terribly embarrassing but it wasn't to me i really didn't care like it never occurred to me

00:22:53.280 and honestly it never even occurred to me that i could be embarrassed never even thought of it

00:22:59.680 well it wasn't part of any of the variables at all it's just not part of my life anymore and if you can

00:23:05.040 get to the point where you can reframe embarrassment out of your life it really is a superpower you can just

00:23:11.680 do more stuff just do more stuff um all right so yeah jake shields said it couldn't have been it must

00:23:25.840 not have been an easy thing to do but jake it was really easy it was so easy totally easy all right but

00:23:34.240 here are some things that uh i learned from the people who got all the right answers would you like

00:23:41.600 me to spend some more time telling you how wrong i was and how right my critics were you like that right

00:23:48.400 all right so here's some more um so yesterday i think i i suggested that uh everybody was operating

00:23:57.600 by guessing you know so i i said in the early days basically nobody could tell what was real and what

00:24:03.840 wasn't real but um i was corrected so there were a number of people who did not get vaccinated

00:24:10.880 and they said it's not guessing and it's not a heuristic it's not it's not just that we didn't

00:24:16.320 trust the government it's that we did a deep dive and we did our research and the research clearly showed

00:24:23.840 don't do this and so since those are the people who got the right answer i decided to

00:24:30.640 look at what some of them said um for example chris martinson who's a phd he got the right answer

00:24:40.000 and here's how he describes it he goes i use the science data and deduction to arrive at my own

00:24:46.400 conclusions now i thought i was doing those things but apparently i wasn't but here's how to do it right

00:24:54.560 uh i never took the vaccine because i couldn't resolve one major question and the question was

00:25:01.040 why did every vaccine manufacturer use the uh quote whole spike protein construct that's very weird

00:25:10.400 okay so i missed that did did you did you all uh catch that because uh they used the whole spike protein

00:25:19.280 a lot of you probably were thinking well it's probably just some of the spike protein or a little bit

00:25:26.560 but somehow i completely missed that i think it's my lack of scientific training that i didn't realize

00:25:32.240 the whole spike protein would be the mistake so um and here's another one i hope i write it down

00:25:40.560 uh yeah there was uh at least one other one that i wanted to note um

00:25:52.640 oh here's one uh from kevin mckernan also on twitter this is someone else who got the right answer

00:26:00.960 and by doing research so listen to this so here's something else i missed a very quick glance at the

00:26:06.880 sequence of the vaccines demonstrated enrichment of quadruplex g's the letter g quadruplex g's that

00:26:15.200 didn't exist in the virus this is data you chose meaning me that i chose to ignore that is correct

00:26:23.600 i completely ignored and i hope none of you did this but i ignored the enrichment of quadruplex g's

00:26:30.400 and i completely missed that they use the entire spike protein so that's you know maybe a probably

00:26:39.440 a blind spot i have because my lack of scientific training so i won't make that mistake again but

00:26:45.600 the interesting thing is that the smartest people are the people i think the part we all agree on

00:26:51.600 is that the smartest people

00:26:54.960 are the ones who don't have this you know chemical in them the vaccination at this point

00:27:00.400 because the the pandemic is winding down they would be the smartest but have you ever have you

00:27:05.920 ever thought who would be the second smartest if we can all agree who got the right answer

00:27:12.640 it's those of you who are still here and um don't have a vaccination in you so-called vaccination

00:27:20.800 but who is the second smartest group

00:27:22.880 i think it's the here here's what i used to think and here i was wrong again i've been wrong about a

00:27:31.040 lot of things so here's where i was rung in i thought the second smartest people would be the

00:27:36.400 people who use the same reasoning as the people who didn't get vaccinated some some because they did a

00:27:42.480 deep dive others because their heuristics of hey why do they have so much legal protection and why

00:27:49.760 don't they give us more data and why did they rush it so those people you know also got the right

00:27:55.440 answer but i think the second smartest people were the ones who avoided the vaccination and then died

00:28:05.600 of covet so the second smartest i thought were the dead people because they use the same reasoning as

00:28:13.680 the people who are alive and they're the smartest people so you know if they all had the same smart

00:28:19.360 reasoning the second smartest ones are the one who died but here's where i was wrong i found out

00:28:28.080 yesterday on spaces that uh there are a lot of people and i believe it or not i didn't know this till

00:28:35.360 yesterday i swear to god i didn't know this till yesterday but a lot of people believe the pandemic never

00:28:41.760 happened like actually didn't happen as in nobody died of covet as in actually nobody died of covet as

00:28:51.120 in zero people died of covet it never happened and i didn't know that was a real belief i actually

00:28:57.600 honestly god i didn't i did not know anybody thought that but i did a little survey on twitter

00:29:03.600 and um you know of course it's unscientific so i said do you believe covid shots protected any

00:29:13.120 category of people and here i was looking for i think we mostly agree that young people have more

00:29:19.200 costs than benefit from vaccinations that's that's sort of the current thinking among the public anyway

00:29:25.600 and but i thought that the public believed that at least old people got some protection from

00:29:32.000 hospitalization and death but i asked on twitter and 53 percent said nobody got any benefit from the

00:29:39.520 shots and and they don't mean they don't mean that the side effects are worse than the protection

00:29:46.720 they mean that nobody was protected in any way even even temporarily uh so 23 percent said yes the

00:29:55.920 shots gave somebody some protection 24 percent said maybe and 53 percent said no so of the people who

00:30:04.080 follow me more than half believe the entire pandemic was fake and then nobody died of covet

00:30:15.280 interesting

00:30:15.760 um so i would like to support that point of view with my own hypothesis how could it be how could it

00:30:29.520 possibly be that we would have excess deaths because we seem to if there was no pandemic well some people

00:30:38.240 are saying it's the vaccinations themselves and i i don't know one way or the other so i'm not going to

00:30:43.920 weigh in on whether or not it's the vaccination because i've been wrong about everything so far

00:30:49.120 would you agree as wrong as i've been about everything so far if i don't have any data one way or another

00:30:56.240 i'm not going to say it's is is or is not the vaccinations but would you agree that that hypothesis

00:31:02.640 exists as a possibility it exists right it isn't ruled out is it as any there's no way to rule out

00:31:14.080 because i don't think it's been studied to death right but i'm going to give you another interpretation

00:31:20.560 which you have not heard in which all of the excess deaths could be explained

00:31:26.800 without covid and without the vaccinations do you think i can do that and not only that but i'm going

00:31:33.600 to give you a vaccine an explanation that's way more uh probable

00:31:37.520 way more way more probable than either covid or vaccination injury or the two of them added

00:31:46.320 together all right well that is my challenge and i shall do it right now you've heard of the placebo

00:31:54.320 effect of course you know that if you're testing any kind of drug that as many as 30 to 60 percent of the

00:32:01.680 people who get the fake drug that doesn't do anything 30 to 60 of them actually have a benefit

00:32:10.800 with no drug now do you know how science explains how that's possible do you know what the scientific

00:32:19.040 mechanism is that somebody will believe something might work and that it actually works in the

00:32:24.960 real in their actual body do you know how the placebo works scientifically do you know the explanation

00:32:34.320 nobody does no belief is a fact but how the belief trans translates into a physical response

00:32:44.160 is unknown now have you ever heard of a nocebo it's the same concept as a placebo but instead of believing

00:32:54.240 that the let's say the pill is good for you if you believe it might be bad for you it can actually hurt you

00:33:03.120 you can actually injure yourself by belief that the pill will injure you when it's just a nothing pill

00:33:11.120 that's a real thing so the placebo is where you get a fake benefit even though nothing in the real world

00:33:17.280 should make that happen and the nocebo is where it hurts you even though that drug couldn't hurt anybody

00:33:26.160 and i and let me say again science has no idea why no idea

00:33:32.400 i know why or i know what the most likely explanation of why is we live in a simulation

00:33:44.080 and people and not everybody but something like 30 to 60 percent of participants are players

00:33:51.360 the npcs just do whatever the pill does but the players are actually creating the reality and then

00:33:59.680 walking into it the reality they've created now what are the odds that we live in a simulation well

00:34:05.520 i don't want to recap that but if you listen to elon musk or you listen to me you'll know that the odds

00:34:12.240 that we are a simulation and not an original species probably a trillion to one or a billion to one

00:34:18.640 so if the odds of us being a simulation are you know a billion to one because there will be lots of

00:34:23.360 simulations for every original world that makes simulations so while we could be real it's possible

00:34:30.880 the the odds are just astronomically against it if we were a simulation could you explain placebos and nocebos

00:34:39.840 yes you could in the context of a simulation it makes perfect sense because it also explains

00:34:46.000 affirmations positive thinking and why people who believe they live in the simulation keep getting

00:34:52.720 better results i tell you i believe i live in that honestly i believe this is a simulation that's my

00:35:00.160 actual opinion but my life keeps turning out like it could only be a simulation my actual life is so

00:35:08.000 unusual it couldn't possibly just be organically happening it just doesn't seem possible and elon musk

00:35:15.120 same thing he believes it's a simulation there's nothing about his life that looks ordinary it looks

00:35:20.640 like he's just creating reality out of his mind and we're watching him do it so

00:35:29.680 here's my uh here's my uh connecting it all together did you see a um i forget where i saw it i think

00:35:39.040 it was on rasmussen i think rasmussen had the poll they said that um republicans

00:35:47.040 were more likely to believe they knew somebody who had been injured by the the shots

00:35:52.960 than democrats do you believe that's true do you believe that if you asked the republicans would say

00:35:58.080 yes more likely not everyone but more likely they would say yes i know somebody was injured by the

00:36:03.200 vaccination if you ask the democrats they say no but i know somebody who's got long covet

00:36:08.160 right democrats are going to believe long covet republicans are more likely to believe vax injury

00:36:18.000 if we live in a simulation

00:36:21.840 they're both right they both can be right it can happen at the same time as long as the two stories

00:36:29.200 never have to be resolved and so far they don't so far you can you can live and procreate and go

00:36:36.000 through your life believing that no pandemic even happened it was all fake or you could go through

00:36:42.560 your life thinking it was a deadly pandemic and people died like crazy and you can live right next

00:36:48.160 to each other you can have jobs you can even marry each other and it would all work you just you just

00:36:55.600 have to have kids and then society goes on so it doesn't need to be resolved and the only way i can

00:37:02.240 explain these different worlds that we seem to be experiencing is that we are a simulation and the

00:37:08.160 people who expected vax injury talked themselves into it and created it the people who expected long

00:37:15.760 covet talked themselves into it and created it as a reality the people who believe that no pandemic

00:37:22.720 happened lived in that reality just happy as happy as pie

00:37:31.440 uh the who or what is in control of the simulation would be whoever created it but they probably did a

00:37:37.920 hands-off kind of thing so they could see how it see how it plays out so it's probably not hands-on

00:37:43.360 except for you know tweaking it or adding themes or stuff yeah who created the creator we don't have to

00:37:49.920 answer that yet but um if if it's true let me see if i can just back up now and see how much i can get

00:37:57.680 you to say yes to do you agree that the placebo and the nocebo effect are so well demonstrated that

00:38:05.360 they're real like there's something going on there you'd all agree with that right and would you agree

00:38:10.720 that science doesn't know what it is and they've looked at it a lot right it's like one of the greatest

00:38:17.120 mysteries it appears and i'll just say appears that the people are are simply changing the reality

00:38:25.520 based on their belief of the pill that's what it looks like to me it doesn't look like only their

00:38:31.200 belief has changed it looks like their actual reality changed that's what it looks like to me

00:38:37.040 it doesn't look like the brain magically produced chemistry that makes you healthy

00:38:43.120 i think it could do that but i don't think that's what happened because i think science would find

00:38:48.800 that right if the mechanism had been your brain changes your body chemistry we would see that

00:38:57.280 that would probably be easy to spot but they can't find any mechanism there's no mechanism

00:39:04.160 we're a simulation we have to be and you should look for this effect everywhere everywhere people

00:39:11.040 expect something to happen watch how often it happens let me tell you something i expect you'll

00:39:18.640 you can see if it happens the the book that i'm just editing and finishing up now it'll come out around

00:39:23.520 september i've never made this prediction before because it's a belief it's more of a belief i think it's

00:39:31.200 going to be the most important book in the world and not counting religious books all right we'll give the bible

00:39:36.640 and the quran their their own place but of just books i actually think it's going to be the most

00:39:44.560 important book ever written because it's it's nothing less than reprogramming it's like a software

00:39:50.320 upgrade for a human it's actually written you know i'm a hypnotist so i can figure out how to do this

00:39:58.080 stuff it's written like a software update to just update everything about your social life your sense of

00:40:03.760 success your health just an update it's gonna it's gonna actually make the world spin now let's see

00:40:11.200 if that happens so the reason i'm doing this is to give you a little uh i don't know a little easter

00:40:16.720 egg or something where you could say okay he did say that thing which is really really unusual

00:40:22.880 think about on how how unlikely that is because my last books you know did not change the world well

00:40:30.800 one of them did i guess one of them did change the world but uh so just track it track it because i

00:40:39.440 believe i can make that happen because my brain thinks it's going to happen and i haven't said that

00:40:44.240 about my other books there's this one's special in a way that'll just blow your freaking head off 0.76

00:40:50.160 i think pretty sure so we'll see all right so i think excess deaths could be explained by the

00:40:57.440 following things number one drug overdoses are way up right and drug overdoses are way up which

00:41:07.200 probably means drugs are way up which probably means that that explains why there are more car accidents

00:41:12.640 and every other kind of accident so every kind of accident is up because drugs are up um i would

00:41:20.880 also say that people were out of practice in commuting wouldn't you the the people who didn't

00:41:27.440 commute for two years and then had to commute were suddenly out of practice i think that actually makes

00:41:33.360 a difference because i could feel it like if i don't drive for a few weeks you feel rusty it should

00:41:38.400 be like everything else if you don't do it for a while you don't do it as well so let's say you've

00:41:43.760 got drug overdoses you've got car accidents that could be you know lack of practice plus more drugs

00:41:50.080 um and we found that uh let's see what uh the homicide rate among i read this today among young black men

00:42:02.560 um was nearly 10 times higher than the uh overall firearm death rate in the u.s in 2021 and

00:42:13.760 so some of it is murder violence is up so i think uh murder is the number one cause of young people

00:42:25.040 of death and fentanyl has got to be up there so everything that kills young people is way up and then

00:42:30.800 um even even even the people who make the so-called vaccinations are saying that they do have side

00:42:40.000 effects right so even if the vaccinations were just as safe as the companies make them

00:42:46.240 want want you to believe even they say they kill people and we we did a massive vaccination so even if

00:42:53.520 they're as safe as they say it would still be excess deaths um all right so if you add all those things

00:43:02.640 together and then did you know that after a major stress like a pandemic or a war or something did you

00:43:09.920 know that heart attacks always go up did you know that after any big stressful you know global event

00:43:17.120 there's going to be a few years after where heart attacks spike so we're seeing that and it's exactly

00:43:24.880 what you'd expect so you should see more heart attacks now did you know that you can be stressed

00:43:31.520 to the point of having heart problems did you know that did you know you that just stress just

00:43:37.520 ordinary stress can give you a heart problem yeah so have we ever had more stress

00:43:44.800 stress that's that's unknown right don't we know for sure that anxiety and stress are at an all-time

00:43:50.960 high right so your your hypertension is high your cortisol levels are through the roof some of it is

00:43:59.040 social media some of it's the pandemic itself some of it is fear of the vaccination you took

00:44:04.960 some of it is fear of the covid you didn't get or did get right so in terms of fear is through the roof

00:44:11.280 fear alone could explain the entire excess deaths i'm not saying it does i'm saying that the ex if

00:44:21.280 you're looking at the size of it it could explain all of it did you know that it could explain all of

00:44:29.120 it i'm not saying it is the explanation i'm saying it's big enough do you know what else is big enough

00:44:34.080 to explain all of it all of the excess deaths the placebo nocebo effect it's big enough it could explain

00:44:42.080 all of it i'm not saying it is right because that would be going too far i'm saying that there are a

00:44:48.000 whole bunch of explanations for excess death and they're all really good one of them could be the

00:44:54.560 vaccination itself one could be there's more covet deaths than we know you know bad counting

00:45:01.280 uh apparently we know that in great britain that all the covid data is useless did you know that

00:45:08.880 that's the the newest information is that the covid dated from england or great britain i'm not sure

00:45:14.480 where they sliced it but that they now conclude it's it's all it's all just useless it can't be used for

00:45:20.560 any analysis it has no analytical ability it's that inaccurate so so you got that all right so you got your

00:45:29.120 isolation your your stress that would cause your heart attacks your fentanyl overdoses your extra

00:45:34.640 murders your extra accidents wouldn't it be a miracle if there were no excess deaths

00:45:41.520 yeah even even the died suddenly's can be heart attacks from just too much stress and things building

00:45:49.040 up could be a lot of things

00:45:50.480 well you you might be coming in the late swedish psychopath because uh the context here is how i

00:46:00.000 was wrong about everything wrong about everything all right so probably wrong about that too um

00:46:10.000 here's a question dr uh eli david said on twitter today that some got the vaccine the covid vaccine

00:46:16.320 uh because based on trusting the evidence and then he listed elon musk and me so dr eli david thinks

00:46:25.120 that i got the covid vaccination based on trusting the evidence let me give a clarification my problem

00:46:32.560 wasn't trusting big companies i'm the dilbert guy i'm literally the most famous person in the world

00:46:40.880 for distrusting things that big companies say name anybody on the planet earth who is more famous who

00:46:50.080 has a longer track record of distrust of corporations nobody i'm number one in the world

00:46:58.160 alex jones okay alex jones number two all right but uh here's here's a clarification i didn't trust

00:47:06.080 the vaccinations which is why i waited so long i waited as long as i could and i also predicted

00:47:12.560 they wouldn't work in the beginning so i didn't trust the vaccinations but here's what dr eli david

00:47:17.920 may have missed that i also didn't trust the people who didn't trust them in other words there were

00:47:25.920 doctors who were saying it's obvious already you know that this is a problem so i didn't trust the

00:47:32.880 experts but i doubly didn't trust or equally didn't trust i guess the the critics so i was

00:47:42.400 uh my problem was too much distrust not too little you see that right so i said i can't trust the

00:47:51.840 vaccination and i can't trust the people who say not to take it i can't use any of that information

00:47:57.360 so the only information i used was i had to travel internationally so i had to get a shot

00:48:01.520 it's the only information i used i didn't have any other information i trusted

00:48:06.720 so i didn't use it because it wasn't credible either the critics or now here's what i got wrong

00:48:13.680 and i know you like me to admit when i'm wrong so wrong there are people who are better than me in

00:48:20.160 every possible way who could tell who was right and who was wrong by looking at the arguments so the

00:48:28.960 people who did their deeper dive looked at you know both arguments and looked at their data and said

00:48:33.920 all right we trust these the critics now here's the question i have that i would uh the same question

00:48:44.160 i have for finance you know there there are 10 or 20 000 stocks you could buy in the united states i

00:48:50.160 forget the number 10 000 that you care about probably so about 10 000 stocks you could pick how does an

00:48:57.280 individual know which one individual know which ones to pick well most people get an expert they'll get

00:49:02.800 like a financial advisor or somebody to help them invest if they have investable funds and then my second

00:49:09.600 question is how many advisors are there so there are 10 000 stocks but how many people are there that advise

00:49:17.760 you to buy them more than 10 000 more than 10 000 so you're going from trying to guess which of 10 000

00:49:26.480 stocks and you don't know any way to pick them you transfer that to trying to pick one of 20 000

00:49:33.760 advisors and not knowing anything about them because their track record doesn't mean anything

00:49:39.120 it's not predictive everybody knows that right it doesn't matter if you had the best record for the

00:49:43.520 last five years nobody believes that predicts because somebody was gonna just by luck have the best one

00:49:49.200 so if you if you change your um if you change your point of view from which stock do i buy and you

00:49:56.640 have no idea to which advisor do i ask to buy which stock it's just another thing you don't have anything

00:50:03.280 any idea about you haven't upgraded your analysis you've actually paid extra money to simply double your

00:50:12.000 confusion because now you don't know if you got a good advisor and you also don't know what stocks to buy

00:50:17.680 if you don't get the advisor you don't pay the extra money but you're still just guessing

00:50:24.000 so what do i do i don't get an advisor that would be crazy but other people do because they unlike me

00:50:33.280 can identify an advisor who knows which stocks to pick and yet and yet here's the weird part the advisor

00:50:42.400 is not rich i mean to me that's a red flag if somebody's telling you how to buy stocks and

00:50:49.920 they're not rich it should be a little red flag but other people say yes i can find the people who

00:50:58.240 make less money than i do because if you're if you're wealthy the person telling you how to manage

00:51:04.000 your money is less successful than you so some people know how to find a less successful person

00:51:09.600 who can make all the right decisions despite knowing that warren buffett says that doesn't

00:51:15.520 exist that there is no such person that's what warren buffett says but apparently he's wrong too

00:51:23.440 because here's what we've learned there are people just regular people who are not doctors not experts

00:51:29.040 who although they would admit maybe they can't you know look into the data as deeply they at least know

00:51:35.120 which experts can so they've chosen the correct expert which is something i can't do i don't have

00:51:43.200 that power so i bow to the superiority of those who could look at all the experts probably financially

00:51:50.160 as well as medically and they can tell which one's got the right answer and they can do that by having

00:51:55.920 enough knowledge that when they look at the data themselves without any special expertise or background in

00:52:03.280 the area that they can know what the people who do have expertise and background in the area missed

00:52:10.560 so apparently all the people with vast experience missed all of these things that the some small

00:52:16.720 number of people got right but i don't have the ability and i want to admit this completely i would

00:52:22.560 never be able to know which critic got the right answer but many of you do and i applaud you because

00:52:29.920 that's a power that i don't have and i don't know how to get it so good for you um

00:52:38.400 and uh then i looked at here's some other smart people andy swan on twitter i don't don't know his

00:52:45.280 background but andy said that uh he knew from the beginning of the covet what the deal was so he made his

00:52:53.760 decision like in the fog of war because i i said that in the fog of war we didn't really know what

00:52:59.600 to do so i didn't blame anybody for getting the wrong answer including myself but uh andy swan says

00:53:05.760 he did not only did he read my mind today which is i gotta say that's impressive uh andy swan read my mind

00:53:14.880 today reported it on twitter and it was something i didn't even know i was thinking so not only did

00:53:23.360 he read my mind but he saw things i didn't even know they were in there and then reported them

00:53:27.280 so that was impressive but he also knew the risk of covid and the vaccines from the start

00:53:34.880 so during the fog of war when the experts were saying we don't know anything andy swan achieved

00:53:41.680 certainty because he not only recognized that the vaccine sounded sketchy and then he was totally

00:53:47.440 right right but that he also knew that um the bioengineered virus from a lab probably we don't

00:53:56.960 know for sure uh he knew how dangerous that was and he also knew how bad long covid would be

00:54:03.920 at the beginning now is that impressive that's impressive because i didn't know any of that

00:54:11.280 i just thought we didn't know anything got everything wrong so i'm a big old dope i can't do any mind

00:54:18.240 reading i can't even read my own mind as well as andy swan can so i feel bad about that

00:54:26.880 all right um

00:54:30.400 what i wrote myself a note and i can't remember what it was

00:54:34.480 all right well there we are the great barrington declaration yes the great barrington declaration

00:54:47.120 people kept telling me scott listen to the great barrington declaration and i didn't realize that the

00:54:54.560 great barrington declaration also knew how bad long covid would be

00:54:58.880 i didn't know they knew that too which was amazing so they got that right right from the start so

00:55:11.360 mary rose what are you talking about crazy

00:55:16.880 yeah i got trump right because i had specific knowledge that's correct and i got everything about

00:55:21.520 the uh the pandemic wrong because that's not my field but i am impressed of the people who also

00:55:28.800 was not their field but yet nailed it right right from the fog of war period now that's impressive

00:55:36.800 those are the people that i want in congress the people who may who reach certainty without any data

00:55:42.000 whatsoever if i could do that if you could teach me to do that i'd be in good shape

00:55:48.480 now um does anybody own tesla stock any of you own tesla stock

00:55:56.720 because i realized uh there's kind of a big risk to tesla stock that nobody's talking about

00:56:03.200 oh a lot of you own tesla stock yeah you might want to reconsider this because there's a there's a

00:56:08.400 really big risk um we know now that uh elon musk only looks smart because we found out that he got

00:56:16.960 vaccinated like i did big old dumb head right now he said he did it because he needed to do it to 0.83

00:56:22.560 travel to his gigafactory so for work it was like really really important but still i mean he had the

00:56:28.320 option he didn't have to go to the gigafactory so so elon musk largely a fraud i think we can see um

00:56:37.440 he probably got lucky building one electric car company and then you know a rocket company to go to

00:56:43.280 mars and that's i mean that's like screaming luck luck luck luck and then he bought twitter and

00:56:50.720 saved free speech but that was just because he got lucky on the other things so he had a lot of money

00:56:55.600 so basically it's a story of just lucky on paypal lucky lucky lucky lucky lucky now contrasting

00:57:04.240 his blind luck was alex berenson now experience and despite not being a medical expert um also got

00:57:15.360 everything right from the fog of war period to today now here's the risk to tesla stock

00:57:25.520 what if alex berenson tries to make an electric car because we already know he's like way smarter than

00:57:31.680 elon musk because they both looked at this complicated situation and elon musk got like

00:57:37.680 all the wrong answers big old dumb guy and then alex berenson who i mistakenly criticized early on 0.52

00:57:45.280 and i take that back completely as a journalist he beat 95 of all the medical experts

00:57:54.080 he's just he just lapped him killed him and and i think he made money on it too i think he probably

00:58:03.760 wrote a book and made some money so he made money and as far as i know he did not get vaccinated can

00:58:10.480 you fact check me that alex berenson did not get the so-called vaccination right so he's clearly the

00:58:18.880 winner he clearly saw this from day one elon musk missed the whole story as did i two idiots and 0.88

00:58:30.160 what if he starts a car company berenson has skills i mean this man can this man could do things even

00:58:38.000 outside of his field so pretty impressive now what i did which makes me look like a freaking idiot now 0.84

00:58:47.200 is when i got the vaccination i made exactly the same decision that dr robert malone made and he was

00:58:54.880 one of the inventors of the mrna platform and he got the vaccination for the same reason i did like

00:59:01.440 he waited a while he was a certain age you know i think he's younger than me but probably over 60.

00:59:07.600 he's in great shape by the way um oh let me let me say one thing about the uh the uh the doctors who

00:59:16.320 were critics of the vaccination have you noticed that they're all in good shape i just want to call

00:59:23.920 that out like a little compliment you look at look at um berenson too berenson looks like he has

00:59:32.240 really good uh body mass index wouldn't you say he looks like he takes care of himself so

00:59:39.840 that's good uh look at dr malone doesn't dr malone look like the healthiest guy for how old is he

00:59:48.080 do me a fact check is he like 61 62 that guy's in great shape imagine being that good looking at that

00:59:56.800 age yeah and that's pretty impressive um and the other dr mcauliffe dr mcauliffe he doesn't he look

01:00:06.800 doesn't he look like really healthy for his age so maybe you should listen to these guys they they

01:00:13.200 all look pretty healthy

01:00:20.480 most successful people have self uh discipline do they blown 64. now is that not impressive

01:00:28.160 whatever malone is doing you should just do what he does because it's clearly working

01:00:38.080 do you know that at my current age i believe both of my grandfathers were dead from old age

01:00:43.520 isn't that weird the difference between then and now

01:00:53.840 all right

01:00:58.000 somebody says they're a doctor jg and chose the the jab for travel purposes and you feel like a winner

01:01:05.200 well so far so far but maybe you didn't know that nobody actually died from covet which i learned

01:01:12.320 yesterday from half of my half of my viewers was not aware of that i thought at 1.1 million people

01:01:18.960 died and maybe if they over counted it maybe it was really only 800 000 but i have been misinformed

01:01:26.320 this whole time and apparently nobody died

01:01:30.960 um have they been upgraded from rogue doctors yes now they are the correct doctors

01:01:36.400 i apologize for ever calling them rogues although rogue was never an insult by the way you know that

01:01:42.720 right rogue just means outside the mainstream uh that was never meant to be an insult i'm just saying

01:01:49.440 this statistically the people outside the mainstream are usually wrong in this case they were the only ones

01:01:57.280 were right and i was wrong about everything

01:02:07.040 no i i laughed and mocked them individually but not because they were rogues yeah the rogue part is not

01:02:12.880 the insult the the insult is the other stuff i said so i'm not denying it i'm just saying the rogue

01:02:18.960 part wasn't part of the insult all right is i get a lot of questions about georgia mulani 0.93

01:02:28.960 in italy i'm not terribly interested in her only because italian politics don't really have much effect

01:02:35.040 on me why did i mock reason and knowledge let me answer that question i'm being asked here why did i mock

01:02:43.520 reason and knowledge because i didn't have either one obviously i was not operating in a reasonable way

01:02:50.960 because i got the wrong answers and obviously i did not have the knowledge so

01:02:58.240 how much more of an l can i take i'm trying to be fully transparent

01:03:03.600 uh can hypnosis affect dreams probably

01:03:19.120 probably everyone with leukemia died of covet no i i've can i've admitted i was wrong about

01:03:26.800 everything and nobody died of covet it's imaginary

01:03:33.600 so there's that all right um repent and accept the faith of others and experts that's true see

01:03:44.160 my problem was i didn't trust the experts but what i should have trusted

01:03:49.040 is the people who don't have expertise and their ability to tell me which experts with expertise are

01:03:57.280 the right ones and i couldn't do that myself but i should have believed the people

01:04:01.680 who told me they could

01:04:06.880 do i miss being a guest on alex jones you know here's the thing everybody says when you know

01:04:13.520 anybody who's appeared on alex jones as i have um

01:04:18.720 it's a fun time and alex jones is actually a great guy like interpersonally he he's a fun guy

01:04:27.600 like it's just a completely fun experience now i just said yeah i just said what i believe

01:04:33.280 and he can say what he believes and you can make up your mind

01:04:40.080 here's another md who did not get the vaccine for travel purposes and also feels like a winner

01:04:45.600 so we've got a lot of people who are winning and uh i'm the loser in this one i'll tell you i was

01:04:53.280 losing hard in santorini and uh bora bora i was i was feeling pretty bad there yep it felt like the

01:05:03.840 dream vacation of a lifetime because there were almost no other people at the resorts imagine going to the

01:05:10.960 top uh tourist destinations in the world and having nobody else there basically the whole staff is

01:05:19.440 just waiting on you yeah but i didn't at the time i thought it was amazing but in retrospect i realized

01:05:26.880 it was just a terrible terrible time and i never should have done it it was also dumb and uninformed

01:05:31.840 well christina was texting the tate brothers somebody says

01:05:42.800 uh all right um what did it cost you oh my god it cost a lot yeah yeah those two vacations were insane

01:05:52.880 cost-wise i don't recommend them on on a cost-effectiveness basis no like it wasn't more

01:06:01.120 fun than say going to hawaii at a quarter of the cost but it was interesting to do once i mean i'm glad i did

01:06:16.000 see a lot of people are having trouble taking yes for an answer so some people still think i'm saying

01:06:21.440 that you are uh that people were right for the wrong reason like you remember before i said i think people

01:06:30.960 you know maybe maybe maybe the people didn't get vaccinated could turn out to be right

01:06:35.440 but mistakenly i said for the wrong reasons but then i realized that they could determine

01:06:41.680 the science where the scientists could not and then that changed my mind

01:06:48.320 all right so is there any other stories i missed

01:06:51.440 no yeah so just to clarify somebody says do you mean we're all guessing no no no i mean i was guessing

01:07:02.640 and those of you who got the right answer obviously we're using good analysis and uh clever heuristics as

01:07:10.880 well as better data and uh i think you did a better deep dive on the data so that's how you got the right

01:07:16.000 answer very much alex berenson like now i here'd be the real imagine if all of you who also got the

01:07:22.880 right answer on the vaccination so-called what if you started teaming up with alex berenson

01:07:29.280 combined all of your analytical abilities and build an electric car that's why tesla stock is kind of

01:07:36.640 shaky today because we we know that that risk is out there that's probably why elon musk is lowering

01:07:43.760 the prices on his cars panic panic because what do you you know if you have a choice of driving a

01:07:51.120 tesla or a berenson are you going to drive you know dumb old vaccinated tesla car or are you going to

01:08:00.240 get a a pure blood electric that will that will really rock easy choice easy choice okay um

01:08:13.680 what you're out you're out no i want to drive a berenson not a not a tesla vaccination

01:08:21.120 car that'd be crazy all right uh electric what is the wef still on the world economic forum

01:08:35.600 or is that over do you think we're do you think the wef stuff is over blown or not

01:08:41.120 did i watch snl no um yeah i do wonder if the wf is over blown i mean it's real and it definitely has an

01:08:55.440 impact but i wonder if those impacts wouldn't happen anyway all right um

01:09:02.080 um norm book review we i still haven't read any books this year

01:09:10.800 the prostitution was overblown

01:09:14.640 all right i don't have anything else to say today but here's here's my prediction there's

01:09:18.800 some big story brewing oh there was there was some more stuff about joe biden's documents

01:09:23.680 what does it tell you that the joe biden document story uh keeps trickling out like there's always a

01:09:32.640 little bit there's another document so there's yet another document what does that tell you

01:09:38.800 i think it tells you that the democrats were trying to get rid of them

01:09:43.360 now we've been saying this for a while but you know the the evidence just keeps that trickling it

01:09:48.160 the the fact that it's the trickle attack that's like the classic look of uh like a political op

01:09:56.480 like the the non-trickle would just put it out there and then people would forget about it

01:10:01.360 but the trickle is what keeps it alive when you see the trickle going on like oh there's one more

01:10:08.080 document one more document and how important do you think any of the documents are

01:10:16.560 do you do you think that anything trump had or anything biden had will have real importance to

01:10:23.440 security i feel like not yeah i feel like not i i think the most likely explanation for it all

01:10:34.640 is that nobody at that level takes classified documents too seriously unless it's a real secret

01:10:41.360 right like if it were actually like the nuclear codes i don't think biden or trump would have

01:10:48.240 taken them home i don't think so but let's say it was uh it was a report about a topic that is

01:10:56.080 generally classified but if you do this one thing on that topic it'd be like yeah that didn't make any

01:11:02.400 difference i feel like it's the ones that don't make any difference where the leader just says well it's

01:11:07.520 classified but you know it doesn't make any difference it's like not important right now

01:11:14.160 the other thing you know i'm seeing the argument that uh trump was president so he could declassify

01:11:19.120 things biden was vice president at the time so he couldn't and then others say well but the president

01:11:25.680 didn't do a process to which i say can i can i be the lawyer defending trump that would be the easiest

01:11:34.000 defense in the world and they say okay he did not follow the process for declassifying then i would

01:11:41.120 say can you describe the process and then the prosecution would say yes the the thing the process

01:11:48.000 and i'd say well can you show me the document that describes that process well it's not written down

01:11:55.200 but because he didn't do anything that looked like a process therefore the process wasn't followed

01:12:01.200 you mean the process that is not required and is not specified in any constitutional or other document

01:12:11.360 now i'm trump's defender and i say how about this if he took him home is there any ambiguity about what

01:12:19.280 he intended none the simply taking them out of a secure place with a big folder that says classified there's

01:12:28.800 no ambiguity in that here i have a classified document i'm walking out the door with it in my hand

01:12:36.240 is that a process i say yes that is the process if if the president takes it out of the building

01:12:44.800 he just declassified it if if he hands it to somebody who's you know doesn't have the classification

01:12:50.640 he just declassified it because there's no process if doing something that is obviously declassifying

01:12:58.800 it taking it out of the classified environment if it's obvious what he's doing i'd say that's

01:13:05.600 as good as anything that to me i would just be done i i can't i can't even fathom a jury not buying

01:13:14.320 that argument or at least all 12 of them you know they're not gonna all agree but you could get you

01:13:18.640 could pick off six people in a jury and you could take six people to say look if there's no process

01:13:26.160 walking out the door with them is the process that is the process because there's no ambiguity about it

01:13:33.120 there's no no question what he intended if he knew he was doing if he didn't know he was doing it then

01:13:39.760 then it wouldn't be his responsibility right but if he knew he was doing it

01:13:43.600 that was his process he just did it and then it was the process

01:13:53.120 he created a skiff in his house well that's another question

01:13:58.800 yeah there's a problem there is a dc jury problem that's for sure

01:14:02.240 right scotus has already ruled to that effect they should

01:14:18.320 red free says scott thinks he wasn't in the mass formation because he was mistrusting but he bought

01:14:25.280 into the hyped up fear machine right off the bat because he's old and has respiratory issues

01:14:30.480 now red are you afraid of the vaccinations because i was afraid of neither the covid nor the vaccinations

01:14:40.720 so i i had extra lack of fear which which got me to the wrong place so i should have had more fear not less

01:14:50.240 so i think your problem is that i didn't have enough fear

01:14:53.680 because i think you know the locals people can back me on this early in the pandemic did i not say

01:15:01.280 multiple times out loud i'd like to go get the covet as soon as possible

01:15:07.680 did i not can you can you validate that yeah the yeses are coming through so the people who watched me

01:15:13.840 the most know that at the beginning of the pandemic i said i hope i get this right away i just want to get

01:15:19.120 over it get over it get over with so that's what so saying i hope i get it is what you're calling

01:15:25.680 being afraid of it i hope i get it that's afraid that guy's afraid i hope i get it and then at home

01:15:33.680 honestly i did very little social uh distancing my household was not a socially distanced household

01:15:41.440 at all but i guess i did that because i was afraid so i guess that's your interpretation

01:15:50.000 but i wasn't afraid of the vaccinations apparently i should have been and i wasn't afraid of the covid

01:15:56.160 don't know if i should have been but no i wasn't afraid of anyone i did say that we should close the

01:16:04.240 border to or the travel from china right away but that was under the context of figuring out what was going

01:16:10.480 on right that was before we knew anything once we knew that most people survived i was like well

01:16:18.160 just give me the ship i want to just get it over with

01:16:25.120 all right uh

01:16:32.320 steve kirsch looking into airline pilots abnormal ekg readings yeah i don't i don't believe any of that story

01:16:40.480 uh do we have a right to know if our airline pilots have taken the jab no you don't have a right

01:16:51.520 oh yeah ron klain quit or is quitting yeah ron klain the chief of staff for biden i don't think

01:16:57.200 that means anything the chiefs of staff quit so often i don't know if it means anything

01:17:03.280 uh now following procedure and so doing the possible nuclear secrets oh interesting

01:17:12.800 all right yeah so there's no rules about the declassification they can do anything they want

01:17:18.080 unless it's nuclear um

01:17:24.800 trump accepted my endorsement on true social is that true

01:17:27.920 when did that happen

01:17:35.520 is that just oh it just truthed now

01:17:40.640 can we can we look at this while you're while you're here let me open up my truth app

01:17:46.720 see if it pops right up

01:17:47.920 uh

01:17:53.840 he's complaining about mitch mcconnell all right let's see what did you just retweet me

01:18:04.480 all right i'm looking at his

01:18:05.840 uh did he do a lot of tweeting today i don't see it uh oh is this it there we go

01:18:21.600 oh he's oh he re-truths me talking about the single issues he says knock out the cartels all right

01:18:29.520 good for him is that today oh oh there it is he goes thank you scott i accept your endorsement

01:18:37.360 i knocked out isis i will knock out the cartels

01:18:41.680 that's what i want to hear that is exactly what i want to hear

01:18:48.000 all right

01:18:51.520 all right

01:18:54.320 here i am in the middle of a story again

01:18:59.120 now i keep saying this but

01:19:02.960 you see it too right

01:19:05.920 do you see that there's no way to explain how i'm in the middle of all these stories

01:19:11.760 right i mean i know that i talk about him in public but so does everybody

01:19:16.800 like everybody's talking about him in public but how do i end up in the story

01:19:21.280 it should be just another person talking about them but he had them in the story somehow

01:19:25.120 yeah but it's it's not just me who thinks this is weird right and how how often it happens because

01:19:33.440 i've called it out in the past and then you keep watching it happen it's not like i'm just looking at

01:19:37.600 the past i'm telling you what's happening and then you're watching it happening in in real time

01:19:42.080 i don't understand it unless we're a simulation there's no way to explain it

01:19:47.120 so somebody asked me for an asthma update so i use i use the puffer unless i have

01:20:00.960 an allergic reaction that triggers it so i figured out what it is i'm it's sulfites

01:20:07.760 sulfites are an additive to some foods and sulfites some people get an allergy to although you could

01:20:14.000 argue whether it's a real allergy technically but uh if i accidentally imbibe something that has a

01:20:21.200 sulfite in it i can feel it immediately it triggers asthma so if i'm not triggered i don't need it

01:20:27.440 but if i'm triggered i need it temporarily

01:20:34.880 uh

01:20:37.440 yeah there's sulfites and alcohols and sauces and stuff so salad dressing is the killer

01:20:44.000 uh comment on why you think the lawyers said they found six items and not six documents

01:20:54.160 hmm six items versus documents well i don't know maybe there were some graphic images

01:21:03.840 and they don't know if a graphic image is a document i don't know i'm not sure that that

01:21:10.240 do you think it could be a box

01:21:15.440 items like it could be a folder with lots of items in it an item with lots of documents that's possible

01:21:22.640 that's possible best cure of ibs marijuana

01:21:25.600 yeah

01:21:33.760 yeah my enemies would want to secretly play poker with me but that's only because they think they

01:21:37.680 would take all my money and they would i'm the worst poker player in the world

01:21:43.760 eggs have sulfite you're kidding

01:21:45.840 yeah yeah marijuana for ibs instant cure oh um by the way i would like to also confess

01:22:00.080 that uh although uh as my critics have said i apparently i'm very trusting of of uh

01:22:07.600 the medical community you know if i ever told you this i haven't gotten a regular flu shot

01:22:14.880 in a lot of years do you know why do you know why i haven't gotten the ordinary flu shot in i don't

01:22:21.280 know 20 years do you know why because they're bullshit because i don't trust them because i think the 0.87

01:22:29.520 the the risk is higher than the reward so i i'm the guy who trusted medical science so much that i

01:22:37.760 don't even get the one that everybody says is safe

01:22:42.960 you get that right even the regular flu shot i won't go near it but everybody was sure that i was
