Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2139 Scott Adams： Trump Arraigned, CNN & MSNBC Humiliate Themselves, Mind-Reading Hillary

00:00:00.000 Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do.

00:00:05.260 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization, and your life

00:00:10.960 especially.

00:00:12.140 This will be the most amazing time you've ever had.

00:00:14.900 Probably, oh, I don't think it'll ever be topped.

00:00:17.800 But if you'd like it to go to the levels that nobody's ever seen before, all you need is

00:00:22.340 a cup or mug or glass, a tank or chalzstein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any

00:00:27.900 kind.

00:00:28.760 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:30.060 I like coffee.

00:00:31.760 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day.

00:00:35.620 The thing that makes everything better with a little bit of oxytocin today.

00:00:39.120 Just a little bit.

00:00:39.940 Just a hint.

00:00:40.700 Just a taste.

00:00:42.520 I call it a simultaneous sip and it happens now.

00:00:45.060 Go.

00:00:49.320 Ah.

00:00:52.840 So good.

00:00:53.680 Well, how many of you caught Tucker Carlson's third episode on Twitter?

00:00:59.080 It was a burner.

00:01:00.740 Boy, is he good at this.

00:01:03.420 It's interesting to see Tucker without any corporate control on his speech.

00:01:12.060 I won't get into the details because it was such a good thing.

00:01:16.440 You should just watch the whole thing.

00:01:17.800 It's riveting the whole way through.

00:01:19.220 But the basic idea is that the military-industrial complex has been trying to kill Trump for a long time.

00:01:28.780 Or at least been trying to neutralize him.

00:01:31.700 Because Trump is the one who doesn't want to spend a lot of money conquering countries all over the place for no good reason.

00:01:37.880 And that's a big threat, as Tucker would tell you, to the profits of a lot of people.

00:01:44.740 So, I find it fascinating that he can just say that directly.

00:01:50.960 And here's the thing that's different about Tucker.

00:01:55.280 Tucker actually lives and breathes Washington politics.

00:01:59.840 So when he says stuff like this, it doesn't feel like he's just making it up.

00:02:05.660 It feels like this is just a report from his personal experience of the people he knows and the things he's seen himself.

00:02:12.760 So, it seems super credible just because of the access he has.

00:02:18.100 And it's not the sort of thing you'd expect anybody to lie about.

00:02:21.340 It'd be a weird lie.

00:02:22.640 I mean, so detailed.

00:02:26.160 So, I thought that was fascinating.

00:02:27.940 I recommend it.

00:02:28.840 All right.

00:02:29.260 Of course, Trump was arraigned yesterday.

00:02:32.680 We'll talk about that in some detail.

00:02:34.960 The funniest part about it was, and I had to wait.

00:02:38.300 I waited until today, because I didn't think this was real.

00:02:44.580 Maybe it's not.

00:02:46.260 Maybe you can tell me if this is real or not.

00:02:48.640 I think it's real.

00:02:49.440 But the chyron on Fox, while Biden was speaking, said, wannabe dictator, speaking of Biden, wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested.

00:03:07.180 Did that really happen?

00:03:13.000 I've seen the pictures, and I've seen incredible people tweet it.

00:03:17.060 But did that really happen?

00:03:18.320 It was, you saw it live.

00:03:20.860 Did some of you see it live?

00:03:24.760 You saw it live.

00:03:26.020 Okay.

00:03:26.880 All right.

00:03:27.140 Some of you saw it live.

00:03:28.680 I guess I'll believe it.

00:03:29.680 Now, how do you interpret that?

00:03:33.260 Does that look like a rogue employee who was just having some fun and probably got in trouble later?

00:03:41.280 Maybe.

00:03:41.980 I don't know.

00:03:42.980 I mean, it has that feel of a prank, like an internal prank.

00:03:46.840 But here's what I hope it is.

00:03:49.380 This is a very unlikely speculation.

00:03:53.640 But here's what I hope it is.

00:03:54.920 I just hope it's this.

00:03:56.480 I hope it was mocking CNN and MSNBC.

00:04:03.160 I hope it was sarcasm.

00:04:06.560 I hope that they were just doing their version of the ridiculousness that the other side does on their chyrons.

00:04:13.000 If that's what they were doing, oh, my God, they nailed it.

00:04:19.580 Oh, my God, did they nail it.

00:04:24.020 So I don't know what the story is.

00:04:26.360 I'm just going to say that Fox News, if you can identify who did that chyron, could you give them a big raise? 1.00

00:04:34.520 Just a big old bonus.

00:04:36.700 Because it was the most interesting thing that's happened on the network in a little while.

00:04:43.060 It was awesome.

00:04:44.820 All right.

00:04:45.680 So I just hope it was sarcasm or a prank.

00:04:49.280 I would say more generally, let me test your temperature on this.

00:04:55.940 As you know, Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox News, has famously turned against Trump in the past, recent past, and seems to be more of a DeSantis guy and maybe wants the network to focus less on Trump, etc.

00:05:11.300 So that's what we knew to be true prior to this week.

00:05:17.200 But if you were to watch the way Fox News is covering the Trump arraignment situation,

00:05:23.180 I have a hypothesis that Rupert Murdoch thinks that the potential jailing of a presidential candidate is, to use my own term, too far.

00:05:37.820 And it looks like maybe one of two things has happened.

00:05:44.400 Either he has unleashed Fox News to go hard at this, or the hosts and the people at Fox News have just decided to say, fuck you, and they're going to go hard at it anyway, at risk of their jobs, I guess.

00:06:00.120 I don't know which one it is.

00:06:01.360 If I had to guess, I would say Rupert Murdoch is like everybody else, who looks at this and says, all right, he may have done something you don't like, he may have done something technically illegal, but this is too far.

00:06:16.060 Does it feel like that to you?

00:06:17.880 Like there was a little change of something over there at Fox News?

00:06:21.900 Did you feel it?

00:06:23.000 Well, maybe you don't watch it anymore because you're all mad at him.

00:06:26.520 I felt there's some kind of a shift.

00:06:28.280 And I'm fascinated to know if it came from the top, or maybe just everybody, you know, understands the same situation, so nobody needs to talk about it.

00:06:39.600 You know, it could be that nobody needs to talk about it because it's just so obvious that you've got to be against this.

00:06:46.500 If you're leaning right in any way, you've got to be against this.

00:06:49.980 I mean, the fact that all of the challengers to Trump on the Republican side, I think every one of them has come out against this, which is against their own self-interest in a way.

00:07:03.340 I don't think it is.

00:07:04.440 I think it isn't their best interest to be straight about this.

00:07:08.580 But I don't know.

00:07:11.420 It looks like maybe Murdoch's softening up on this.

00:07:15.000 Maybe.

00:07:15.340 Anyway, Trump did his little speech after he was arraigned, which is the other funny thing about the chyron, is because it says a political rival arrested.

00:07:29.700 He wasn't arrested.

00:07:30.760 He was arraigned.

00:07:32.260 It's a pretty big difference.

00:07:34.020 But I love the fact that they called it arrested, because that's sort of what you'd expect from the other team.

00:07:39.580 All right.

00:07:42.240 So Trump said that Biden was the most corrupt president in the history of the country.

00:07:47.700 And did I hear him promise that he would investigate the Bidens for their bribery, alleged bribery situation?

00:07:58.060 Now, this is really high stakes, isn't it?

00:08:02.040 I believe that Biden and Trump have now created a situation in which one of them has to go to jail.

00:08:11.980 One of them has to go to jail.

00:08:14.000 Because if they don't take Trump out, he's going to be the president, and he's going to put them in fucking jail.

00:08:19.900 Or he's going to try pretty hard.

00:08:21.440 Now, let me put down a stake right here. 0.97

00:08:28.660 I do not want to see a Trump administration locking up any Bidens unless they really, really have the goods.

00:08:37.800 I mean, you'd better really have that locked up tight.

00:08:41.560 Because it's the same fucking problem, right?

00:08:44.000 I'm not going to put up with Trump jailing his opponents.

00:08:48.080 I'm not going to put up with that.

00:08:49.980 They better have the goods.

00:08:52.160 They better have the goods, or forget it.

00:08:55.760 Because this works both ways.

00:08:57.440 I'm not going to be political about jailing presidential candidates.

00:09:03.920 You know, we've got to have the goods.

00:09:07.020 All right.

00:09:10.320 Now, here's what I found interesting.

00:09:13.040 CNN did a fact check on this.

00:09:14.820 Of course, Daniel Dale did a fact check on Trump's speech after the arraignment.

00:09:18.520 And, of course, you know, he had lots of things to say were not factual.

00:09:23.840 But here's something that he didn't fact check.

00:09:28.000 Here's the dog that's not barking at all.

00:09:31.340 It's the most silent dog in the world.

00:09:33.640 I thought that Trump's primary defense of his own actions was the Clinton sock drawer defense, the defense that Clinton had a bunch of audio tapes he had taken from his administration.

00:09:48.920 And that the legal opinion on that, the way it shook out, was that the mere removing of them proved that he considered them personal.

00:10:01.060 And the president alone gets to decide what's personal, so the mere act of removing them was enough to prove that he meant them to be personal, and therefore there was nothing he had that was not his personal possession.

00:10:13.780 Do you think that CNN fact-checked that claim from Trump, that the Clinton sock drawer defense is a foolproof defense?

00:10:25.260 Nope.

00:10:26.500 That was not fact-checked.

00:10:29.600 Think about that.

00:10:31.240 It also wasn't mentioned.

00:10:35.660 It wasn't mentioned.

00:10:37.260 It wasn't even mentioned.

00:10:49.660 I mean, you can all clearly see what's going on here, right?

00:10:53.520 There's nothing like real news happening.

00:10:56.320 There's nothing like real justice happening.

00:10:59.080 We're so far from anything like real news and real justice.

00:11:02.180 This is the weirdest, cringey theater I've ever seen.

00:11:07.580 It's like cringe theater all the way around.

00:11:09.860 The way the news is handling it is totally cringe.

00:11:12.860 Really?

00:11:13.400 You can't even mention the most important part of the story.

00:11:17.540 CNN can't even mention the most important part of the story, which is his defense.

00:11:24.840 That doesn't matter?

00:11:26.820 Like, that doesn't count?

00:11:28.240 That's not somehow related to the story or the fact-checking?

00:11:33.520 They can't do a fact-check that says he's right about this?

00:11:37.540 Oh, yeah, he's right about his defense.

00:11:40.080 That seems like a pretty big point, doesn't it?

00:11:43.380 That his defense is either right or wrong?

00:11:48.260 That's crazy.

00:11:49.920 Now, what they fact-checked were his claims about what other people did,

00:11:54.320 not including Clinton, but some other cases.

00:11:57.580 And I think he was, you know, hyperbole and just wrong on all the other stuff,

00:12:02.300 but, you know, in his usual way.

00:12:04.900 Directionally, he was sort of directionally right

00:12:07.880 that presidents have taken material forever,

00:12:11.060 but not in the details, of course.

00:12:15.960 All right.

00:12:18.920 Oliver Darcy writes about Rachel Maddow on MSNBC.

00:12:23.580 She was explaining why MSNBC did not choose to show Trump's speech.

00:12:31.000 And she said this, and she said this without embarrassment

00:12:35.120 and without any sense of irony.

00:12:38.740 Looked right in the camera and said the following.

00:12:41.480 This is Rachel Maddow.

00:12:42.500 There is a cost to us, as a news organization,

00:12:46.220 knowingly broadcasting untrue things.

00:12:54.720 Yeah.

00:12:55.920 Yeah, there would be a cost to a news organization

00:12:58.720 of knowingly broadcasting untrue things.

00:13:02.040 I wonder if MSNBC has ever knowingly broadcast untrue things.

00:13:10.580 Or are they so fucking stupid

00:13:13.080 that they actually believe the things they report?

00:13:16.280 They believe that the president actually called neo-Nazis fine people,

00:13:21.180 like in public.

00:13:22.560 They actually reported that, and they believe that to be true.

00:13:26.340 They believe that the president suggested

00:13:28.100 maybe drinking bleach or injecting disinfectant into your body.

00:13:30.940 in public.

00:13:33.160 They believe that in public he said that.

00:13:35.640 Of course, neither of these things happened.

00:13:38.360 They thought that the president of the United States

00:13:40.560 was peeing on beds in Russia and colluding with Putin.

00:13:45.160 They reported it because they believed it.

00:13:48.820 Did they?

00:13:49.940 Did they believe that?

00:13:52.080 Do you really think there was no point at which they said,

00:13:55.060 you know, I don't think any of this is true.

00:13:56.740 But Rachel Maddow looked right at the camera and said,

00:14:02.020 no, we don't want to knowingly broadcast any untrue things.

00:14:06.500 No, it hurts our ability to do that

00:14:08.400 if we live broadcast

00:14:10.020 what we fully expect to be a litany of lies

00:14:13.260 and false accusations.

00:14:15.080 Yeah.

00:14:16.540 Wow.

00:14:19.080 Well, let me tell you my bottom line

00:14:21.140 on all this Trump stuff.

00:14:22.240 I've got a lot more to talk about,

00:14:23.580 but here's my bottom line.

00:14:28.120 CNN is reporting,

00:14:30.960 and this is one of their opinion pieces on CNN,

00:14:33.500 that Trump wants to make the 2024 election

00:14:36.840 all about himself.

00:14:39.880 You know, not so much about what the country needs,

00:14:42.520 but he's trying to make it all about himself

00:14:44.660 and his legal issues.

00:14:47.060 What do you think of that?

00:14:47.940 What I think about it is that

00:14:51.240 the left is not reading the room right.

00:14:55.220 Let me explain the room

00:14:56.780 to the left.

00:15:00.600 You made Trump us.

00:15:03.740 We didn't do that.

00:15:05.120 I mean, there were people who, you know,

00:15:06.400 loved him and had cult-like support for him.

00:15:09.520 That was true.

00:15:10.840 But you went way beyond that.

00:15:13.220 You just turned him into us.

00:15:15.520 He's being hunted because we're being hunted.

00:15:17.940 And I mean me personally.

00:15:20.640 Definitely me personally.

00:15:22.300 But maybe some of you as well.

00:15:25.100 And whether any of that is a,

00:15:28.020 let's say, an accurate feeling of the world.

00:15:31.600 When I say you should read the room,

00:15:34.120 I'm not saying that the people in the room

00:15:35.860 are being rational.

00:15:37.580 I'm saying that they have a feeling.

00:15:39.920 The room has a feeling,

00:15:41.380 which may or may not be related to facts.

00:15:44.240 But there's a feeling.

00:15:46.220 And I'll tell you what the room feels like.

00:15:48.360 It feels like they're fucking the guy that's us.

00:15:52.040 He just feels like me right now.

00:15:54.060 I've never had that feeling before.

00:15:56.340 Because I don't, you know,

00:15:58.160 I don't have a cult-like, you know,

00:16:00.260 love for him in that weird way.

00:16:02.660 But somehow they made him me.

00:16:05.440 Like, I honestly feel like he's me right now.

00:16:08.080 I feel like I'm being arraigned.

00:16:10.560 I feel like I'm at risk of going to jail.

00:16:13.200 And when he says, you know,

00:16:15.980 it's hyperbole, of course, you know,

00:16:17.800 that he's what's standing between them

00:16:21.080 and the rest of us.

00:16:22.660 That's not exactly true.

00:16:24.500 But it feels true. 0.97

00:16:27.000 I don't think it's true.

00:16:28.680 I mean, not in a technical sense.

00:16:30.460 But it sure as fuck feels true. 1.00

00:16:33.380 And if you're reading this room wrong,

00:16:36.820 you need to get out of the game.

00:16:39.400 If you can't see the mood in the room,

00:16:42.640 you are not in the right business.

00:16:44.620 You should not be in the news,

00:16:46.040 opinion business at all.

00:16:47.580 And if you're in the Biden administration,

00:16:52.060 if you don't know you're juggling

00:16:53.540 live fucking hand grenades, 0.95

00:16:56.480 maybe I should inform you.

00:16:59.520 You're juggling live fucking hand grenades.

00:17:03.000 And you don't need to.

00:17:04.140 Well, maybe they do need to.

00:17:05.640 Because if they don't take Trump out,

00:17:07.260 he's definitely going to take them out.

00:17:08.740 Or try.

00:17:10.400 So they made it a fight to the death

00:17:12.940 instead of an election.

00:17:14.040 And I mean fight to the death.

00:17:18.860 Because they're both at an age

00:17:20.420 where even a short jail sentence

00:17:22.760 could be the end of it, right?

00:17:24.140 That's a life sentence, effectively.

00:17:26.580 So how did we allow this?

00:17:30.080 How did we, the citizens,

00:17:31.360 allow this to happen?

00:17:32.980 That the two candidates are in a death match

00:17:35.500 and it's actually death.

00:17:37.380 It's actually life and death.

00:17:39.640 How did we get there?

00:17:41.660 The news, of course.

00:17:43.280 Yeah, the news is illegitimate

00:17:45.400 and that's how we got here.

00:17:47.160 It's MSNBC, it's CNN,

00:17:49.080 it's New York Times,

00:17:49.960 it's the Washington Post.

00:17:51.400 It's the illegitimate fake news

00:17:53.340 that actually changed our system

00:17:55.360 from an election

00:17:56.160 to who can fucking kill the other one first. 0.93

00:18:00.780 That's what we're watching.

00:18:02.360 It's a death match.

00:18:04.760 And they created that.

00:18:06.440 That's completely a news creation.

00:18:10.400 Now, I'm sure Fox News does their part too, right?

00:18:13.180 We're not going to let the political right off the hook.

00:18:17.200 The news collectively has created this situation.

00:18:21.240 And social media, of course.

00:18:26.880 Here's something I do like about social media.

00:18:29.060 It's all the fact-checking we do on these people.

00:18:31.940 John Bolton was complaining about Trump

00:18:35.580 and his secret documents,

00:18:36.800 but it took only about a minute

00:18:38.680 for Joel Pollack writing for Breitbart

00:18:42.640 to say that Bolton was investigated by the DOJ in 2020

00:18:47.380 for using classified information in his book

00:18:50.380 without authorization.

00:18:53.860 DOJ even tried to seize the profits from his book.

00:18:56.960 Funny the Biden DOJ dropped the whole thing.

00:19:02.820 So it's pretty hard to be anybody in power

00:19:05.800 and to blame anybody else for having secret documents

00:19:10.100 because it turns out every one of them does it.

00:19:13.700 It's basically just a universal.

00:19:15.500 The only thing that Trump did that was different

00:19:18.820 is he had more boxes.

00:19:22.520 He just had more.

00:19:24.260 But it was the same.

00:19:25.200 It looks like all the same stuff they were all doing.

00:19:28.320 And as Trump pointed out,

00:19:29.760 a lot of those boxes you saw in the photographs,

00:19:32.300 remember the picture of the boxes

00:19:33.600 in the bathroom at Mar-a-Lago?

00:19:35.160 That was a very devastating photo.

00:19:39.860 But Trump says,

00:19:41.300 who says that those are full of secrets?

00:19:44.560 Which is a really good point.

00:19:46.360 All we know is that there were boxes there.

00:19:48.960 It was literally just a picture of boxes.

00:19:51.320 It wasn't like the only things he took were secrets.

00:19:54.520 He took photographs.

00:19:56.120 You know, some of them are just full of photographs.

00:19:58.740 So the fact that the way that was presented to us

00:20:01.980 is the assumption that every one of those boxes

00:20:04.520 had classified documents in it

00:20:06.500 and it was stored in a bathroom.

00:20:09.100 It's possible that there wasn't one secret thing

00:20:12.740 in any of those boxes.

00:20:14.860 You haven't heard it either way, right?

00:20:16.820 Have you heard anybody say,

00:20:18.180 and the picture of these boxes in the bathroom,

00:20:20.840 we've looked through them,

00:20:22.160 and sure enough,

00:20:22.900 there were some classified things in there.

00:20:25.000 Did you ever hear that story?

00:20:26.740 No.

00:20:27.440 Because nobody knows what's in the boxes.

00:20:30.260 The fact that they show those boxes

00:20:32.640 without telling you if there's anything in there

00:20:35.120 of evidentiary value

00:20:37.260 tells you that this is not a legitimate process.

00:20:41.580 Even by the prosecutors and the people

00:20:43.900 who are supposed to be the legitimate ones in the game.

00:20:46.420 You know, the rest of us don't have that obligation

00:20:49.000 to be too legitimate.

00:20:50.160 We're just talking about it.

00:20:51.180 But the people who are in the process,

00:20:54.820 the ones tasked with making sure that we find justice,

00:20:57.900 they printed a picture of a bathroom full of boxes

00:21:00.460 and didn't tell you if any of it

00:21:02.240 was related to the case.

00:21:05.660 Any of it.

00:21:06.880 There was not a claim that even one box had a secret of it.

00:21:09.840 No, there's no claim.

00:21:11.920 I didn't see one anyway.

00:21:12.960 Did you?

00:21:13.220 So, it's just jaw-dropping

00:21:18.680 the amount of impropriety that's going on.

00:21:22.180 It almost stuns you into inaction.

00:21:25.820 It's just too much.

00:21:27.540 It's like you don't even know what to do after a while.

00:21:29.320 There's just so many things wrong.

00:21:30.700 You don't even know which direction to get mad at.

00:21:33.260 That's how it feels.

00:21:38.260 All right.

00:21:38.860 Nancy Mace, who's rapidly becoming 0.79

00:21:44.580 one of my favorite politicians,

00:21:46.600 Republican representative,

00:21:49.240 she tweeted this.

00:21:50.880 She said,

00:21:51.220 just in case anyone is confused

00:21:52.900 what this is really about,

00:21:56.400 this is the president, Biden,

00:21:58.580 last November.

00:22:00.460 Now, last November is not very long ago, right?

00:22:04.280 It's just a few months ago.

00:22:06.220 Last November,

00:22:07.040 Biden said in public

00:22:09.540 at some event,

00:22:12.000 quote,

00:22:12.480 I'm making sure Trump,

00:22:14.460 under legitimate efforts

00:22:15.700 of our Constitution,

00:22:17.060 does not become the next president again.

00:22:21.300 That's an interesting way to put it,

00:22:22.980 isn't it?

00:22:26.020 Why do we say it that way?

00:22:28.900 You know,

00:22:29.120 wouldn't it be,

00:22:30.040 let's say,

00:22:30.880 if it were a political statement,

00:22:32.860 you'd expect it to sound more like,

00:22:35.260 I'll make sure that I win.

00:22:37.680 Or,

00:22:38.200 we have to make sure we win

00:22:39.620 so he doesn't get back in office.

00:22:42.000 Something like that.

00:22:44.060 But,

00:22:44.640 this sounded a lot like a dictator

00:22:46.280 who was just taking out his competitor.

00:22:47.760 anything about what he has,

00:22:56.500 because it's classified.

00:22:57.480 Yeah,

00:22:58.200 Carpe Donctum was pointing out,

00:23:00.920 this is the perfect summer hoax.

00:23:03.960 So,

00:23:04.400 I said the same when I was pointing out,

00:23:06.220 I was predicting,

00:23:07.060 actually,

00:23:07.400 before this heated up.

00:23:09.440 I was predicting that this would be our summer hoax about Trump,

00:23:12.560 because it's a slow news time.

00:23:13.880 And it's the perfect hoax,

00:23:16.040 as Carpe points out,

00:23:17.760 that,

00:23:18.240 because we can't see the documents.

00:23:21.000 Can't see the documents.

00:23:22.320 Do you know what else is interesting about this?

00:23:25.160 That we,

00:23:26.080 I think at this point,

00:23:27.220 we know enough about what did and did not happen,

00:23:30.400 that the legal people who are weighing in on it

00:23:34.380 have enough information

00:23:37.280 that they probably have a pretty good handle

00:23:39.260 on which way this should go.

00:23:42.120 And they disagree.

00:23:44.440 Just think about this.

00:23:46.060 The top legal experts in the country,

00:23:48.360 because it's such a big issue,

00:23:50.100 you know,

00:23:50.280 the most important,

00:23:51.380 high-powered,

00:23:52.380 most capable people are on TV talking about it.

00:23:55.380 You got your Dershowitzes,

00:23:56.680 and your Turlees,

00:23:57.460 and, you know,

00:23:58.460 the people who may have a different opinion as well.

00:24:03.320 And here's what I see in their conversations

00:24:08.040 on TV,

00:24:09.980 on the news,

00:24:10.720 and online.

00:24:12.340 Correct me if I'm wrong.

00:24:14.360 The greatest legal minds in the country

00:24:16.540 can't tell if a law was broken.

00:24:20.980 True or false.

00:24:22.760 The best legal minds in the country

00:24:24.780 can't tell if a law was broken or not.

00:24:27.460 Now,

00:24:29.780 now,

00:24:31.720 some might say there was a technical law broken,

00:24:34.440 but unless you've adjudicated

00:24:36.320 that whole Clinton sock drawer angle,

00:24:41.060 you know,

00:24:41.300 the precedent that says

00:24:42.440 that taking it out of the White House

00:24:44.280 is all,

00:24:44.780 it's all takes.

00:24:45.900 If you take it out of the White House,

00:24:47.600 there you go.

00:24:49.420 Now,

00:24:49.980 I'm also wondering about the timeline.

00:24:51.480 Did Trump remove from the White House

00:24:54.960 things after inauguration

00:24:58.020 and therefore he wasn't president

00:24:59.480 so he couldn't do anything?

00:25:00.860 Is that part of the argument?

00:25:02.840 Is it part of the argument

00:25:03.980 that he didn't move the boxes

00:25:05.380 out of the White House

00:25:06.160 until he was technically out of office,

00:25:08.520 but he was just doing the moving?

00:25:09.600 Is that not part of it

00:25:11.820 or it is?

00:25:13.600 I saw that today

00:25:14.820 and I was like,

00:25:15.380 what?

00:25:15.740 That's the first time I've heard that.

00:25:17.580 Somebody's saying true.

00:25:19.280 So that might become part of the issue,

00:25:22.640 just the technical timing.

00:25:25.060 But here's my larger point.

00:25:26.600 This is the United States of America.

00:25:32.720 In my opinion,

00:25:34.240 we have two or three huge advantages

00:25:37.340 on much of the rest of the world.

00:25:39.840 Some of it is geography.

00:25:41.720 We just got really lucky

00:25:42.900 where America is situated

00:25:44.720 in terms of close to just where it is

00:25:48.020 and that we have natural resources

00:25:49.940 and stuff like that.

00:25:51.280 So that's pretty lucky.

00:25:53.360 But the thing that we just do right

00:25:55.340 that makes us,

00:25:57.720 in my opinion,

00:25:58.420 the most important country

00:25:59.600 in human civilization

00:26:01.020 is that our legal system usually works.

00:26:06.080 Everything else flows from that.

00:26:08.600 If you don't get the legal system right,

00:26:11.200 nothing else is going to work.

00:26:13.080 You know,

00:26:13.300 corruption takes over,

00:26:14.600 it all falls apart.

00:26:15.660 You turn into Russia pretty quickly. 0.63

00:26:17.900 So that's like our special thing.

00:26:21.920 And it's a special thing

00:26:23.000 that you could easily do wrong

00:26:24.280 and you can imagine us

00:26:26.420 drifting into doing it wrong

00:26:27.840 because it looks like

00:26:28.760 that's what's happening.

00:26:30.860 You know,

00:26:31.420 crime in the cities

00:26:32.200 and then this situation.

00:26:33.460 It's looking like

00:26:34.300 our historical ability

00:26:37.260 to get at least justice

00:26:40.000 mostly right.

00:26:42.800 That's a little bit

00:26:43.700 in jeopardy at the moment.

00:26:45.460 So that's a pretty big deal.

00:26:47.380 But let me ask you this question.

00:26:50.180 You don't have to be a lawyer,

00:26:51.580 right?

00:26:52.840 So you could take off

00:26:54.180 your lawyer hat,

00:26:55.600 now you're just a citizen

00:26:57.020 of the United States.

00:26:59.300 You're now a representative

00:27:00.660 of that theme

00:27:02.800 that we get justice right

00:27:05.460 most of the time.

00:27:07.040 You know,

00:27:07.220 nobody's perfect.

00:27:08.420 But we're going to get it right

00:27:09.600 and not only are we going to get it right,

00:27:11.560 but the citizens are going to

00:27:13.360 fucking make sure it's right.

00:27:15.320 That's what a jury is.

00:27:16.960 A jury is the citizens

00:27:18.160 making sure it's right,

00:27:19.500 not just observing.

00:27:20.500 We don't just observe.

00:27:22.740 We're not observers.

00:27:24.520 We are part of this system.

00:27:26.960 Right?

00:27:27.420 And let me tell you,

00:27:28.520 let me lay down

00:27:29.360 a line that can't be crossed.

00:27:33.900 In our system,

00:27:34.980 the following line

00:27:35.880 cannot be crossed

00:27:37.400 and the citizens have to make sure

00:27:38.920 it doesn't happen.

00:27:40.460 If the most qualified experts

00:27:42.620 in the world

00:27:43.240 can look at all of the information

00:27:44.880 about a situation,

00:27:46.500 this document thing,

00:27:47.540 and they disagree

00:27:49.840 on whether a crime

00:27:51.380 has even been committed,

00:27:53.960 that's the end

00:27:55.180 of the conversation.

00:27:57.000 That needs to be

00:27:58.180 the end of the conversation.

00:27:59.880 You don't even bring

00:28:00.900 that trial.

00:28:02.240 If you can't even get

00:28:03.240 legal people to agree,

00:28:05.060 and they do know

00:28:05.900 the information,

00:28:07.140 right?

00:28:07.620 Now,

00:28:08.040 it could,

00:28:08.680 here's where,

00:28:09.480 here's where I'll put

00:28:10.720 one caveat on this.

00:28:11.900 If there's something

00:28:13.000 we don't know yet,

00:28:15.380 well,

00:28:15.820 that could be why

00:28:16.540 the opinions are different.

00:28:18.640 But it looks like

00:28:19.940 we're closing in

00:28:20.840 on knowing everything

00:28:21.600 that needs to be known

00:28:22.720 in order to judge it

00:28:24.460 as legal or illegal.

00:28:26.740 And it looks like

00:28:27.740 people would disagree.

00:28:29.840 And even if they do agree

00:28:31.640 that there might be

00:28:32.380 a technical violation,

00:28:35.180 it looks like

00:28:36.100 they completely disagree

00:28:37.380 about whether

00:28:38.680 that's a chargeable,

00:28:40.260 logically you'd want

00:28:42.420 to do that

00:28:43.060 for the good

00:28:43.560 of the country.

00:28:45.180 Under this situation

00:28:47.300 of extreme,

00:28:48.980 extreme ambiguity

00:28:50.920 about whether

00:28:51.800 a law has even

00:28:53.100 been broken,

00:28:54.420 at the same time

00:28:55.300 that we see

00:28:55.880 no victim,

00:28:57.700 no victim.

00:28:59.100 So,

00:28:59.760 we're not sure

00:29:00.700 a law has been broken,

00:29:03.020 we're sure

00:29:03.640 there's no victims

00:29:04.560 that have come forward,

00:29:06.520 and we don't even know

00:29:07.460 what's in the boxes,

00:29:08.900 and we won't know

00:29:09.720 what's in the boxes.

00:29:11.460 How does this

00:29:12.400 have to end?

00:29:15.040 Not where you

00:29:17.680 predict it will end,

00:29:20.380 not where,

00:29:21.440 you know,

00:29:21.800 all the badness

00:29:22.540 you think will shake out.

00:29:24.000 You tell me

00:29:24.620 where it has to end.

00:29:27.560 It has to end

00:29:28.560 before trial.

00:29:30.280 It has to.

00:29:31.180 Or in some kind

00:29:32.380 of jury acquittal.

00:29:33.220 This has to end

00:29:35.660 with Trump

00:29:37.440 being free

00:29:38.440 of the charges,

00:29:39.300 one way or the other.

00:29:40.580 You know,

00:29:40.860 I saw Rachel Maddow

00:29:41.840 say that the judge

00:29:42.820 can do a pocket veto,

00:29:46.640 meaning,

00:29:48.180 sort of,

00:29:48.760 procedurally

00:29:49.560 just delay it

00:29:52.340 or say it doesn't

00:29:53.700 mean some standard

00:29:54.640 and, you know,

00:29:55.520 not accept it,

00:29:56.620 and just sort of

00:29:57.300 make it go away

00:29:58.120 in a judgy way,

00:29:59.560 however judges

00:30:00.320 have the power

00:30:00.900 to do that.

00:30:01.860 Maybe.

00:30:02.980 But I'll tell you

00:30:03.740 what can't happen.

00:30:05.900 You can't put

00:30:06.800 a president

00:30:07.460 of our country

00:30:08.460 in prison

00:30:10.040 for evidence

00:30:12.160 the public can't see

00:30:13.360 because it's classified

00:30:14.360 on a case

00:30:16.620 that our best

00:30:17.540 legal experts

00:30:18.260 are completely

00:30:19.140 all over the place.

00:30:22.000 And we,

00:30:22.800 so there's ambiguity

00:30:24.000 of whether

00:30:24.580 there was a victim,

00:30:26.160 ambiguity of whether

00:30:27.100 there was even a crime.

00:30:28.160 And it's the person

00:30:32.560 who might be

00:30:32.980 the next president

00:30:33.740 and was a prior president.

00:30:36.160 Under those conditions,

00:30:37.960 that's a hard no.

00:30:40.800 So as a citizen

00:30:42.200 of the United States,

00:30:42.980 I'm telling you,

00:30:43.600 you're not fucking

00:30:44.400 putting him in prison.

00:30:46.300 You're not.

00:30:47.980 It's just not going

00:30:48.640 to happen

00:30:48.980 because we're not

00:30:50.620 going to let it.

00:30:52.020 Because if he goes

00:30:52.800 to prison,

00:30:53.820 I'm sorry,

00:30:56.140 it's too far.

00:30:58.160 Too far.

00:31:00.760 And the fact that

00:31:01.880 the news

00:31:02.860 is even treating this

00:31:04.520 like it's a jump ball,

00:31:06.680 like this could go

00:31:07.600 either way,

00:31:08.580 no, it can't go

00:31:09.380 either way.

00:31:10.740 Let me be as clear

00:31:11.700 as I can.

00:31:13.000 The legal system

00:31:14.200 might do anything

00:31:15.320 unpredictable.

00:31:16.120 I don't know

00:31:16.400 what the legal system

00:31:17.220 is going to do.

00:31:17.980 But I'm telling you,

00:31:18.700 the citizens are done.

00:31:20.860 It's going to go

00:31:21.660 one way.

00:31:22.300 He's not going

00:31:22.840 to prison.

00:31:24.100 He's not going

00:31:24.740 to prison.

00:31:25.680 It's just not

00:31:26.120 going to happen.

00:31:26.480 We won't let that

00:31:28.180 happen.

00:31:30.080 All right.

00:31:33.920 I saw some more

00:31:35.100 fact-checking here

00:31:36.060 from Daniel Dale,

00:31:37.320 comparing it

00:31:38.360 to the Clinton

00:31:39.080 email case.

00:31:40.320 And let me tell you

00:31:40.980 why those are

00:31:41.560 so different.

00:31:42.800 So, so,

00:31:43.800 oh, so different.

00:31:45.340 Completely different.

00:31:47.020 Here's why.

00:31:48.780 Facts first.

00:31:50.000 This is from

00:31:50.460 Daniel Dale, CNN.

00:31:51.680 This is an inaccurate

00:31:53.780 and self-serving

00:31:54.720 comparison.

00:31:55.520 This is Trump

00:31:56.320 comparing his

00:31:57.000 situation to

00:31:57.740 Hillary's email.

00:31:59.760 Investigators

00:32:00.280 saw problems

00:32:01.580 with how both

00:32:02.400 Trump and Clinton

00:32:03.260 handled classified

00:32:04.340 materials.

00:32:05.220 Okay.

00:32:05.820 So, so far

00:32:06.460 it's similar

00:32:06.960 because investigators

00:32:08.840 saw that they both

00:32:09.660 had some issues

00:32:10.880 with the classified

00:32:11.560 materials.

00:32:12.080 So, so far

00:32:13.020 the same.

00:32:14.180 But there are

00:32:14.880 several key

00:32:15.500 differences

00:32:15.960 between their cases.

00:32:17.480 All right.

00:32:17.700 Key differences.

00:32:18.420 These are big.

00:32:18.880 All right.

00:32:19.860 For starters,

00:32:21.120 Trump mishandled

00:32:22.280 far more material.

00:32:24.300 Right.

00:32:24.800 So apparently

00:32:25.620 the quantity

00:32:26.440 of material

00:32:27.140 determines

00:32:28.160 whether it's murder.

00:32:29.520 So like if you

00:32:30.240 were to murder

00:32:30.700 one person,

00:32:32.040 that wouldn't

00:32:33.260 be murder 0.68

00:32:33.900 so much

00:32:34.460 as somebody

00:32:34.960 who murdered

00:32:35.280 three people.

00:32:36.540 Because three

00:32:36.880 people is a lot

00:32:37.520 of murder

00:32:37.920 but one person.

00:32:40.640 You know,

00:32:40.920 one person

00:32:41.700 murdered?

00:32:42.500 How much

00:32:43.140 of a murder

00:32:43.620 is one person

00:32:44.500 compared to

00:32:46.480 a whole crowd?

00:32:47.120 So that's

00:32:48.940 a big difference.

00:32:50.260 There was

00:32:50.720 a volume

00:32:51.240 difference.

00:32:52.220 And you know

00:32:52.740 the law

00:32:53.260 certainly cares

00:32:54.000 about that.

00:32:58.580 When it comes

00:32:59.500 to secrets,

00:33:01.600 do you think

00:33:02.020 volume is how

00:33:02.960 you measure that?

00:33:05.480 Do you think

00:33:06.220 one guy's got

00:33:07.920 a box of secrets

00:33:09.420 and somebody else

00:33:11.200 just has one document?

00:33:13.160 So the box

00:33:14.140 is worse

00:33:14.580 than the one document,

00:33:15.560 right?

00:33:15.780 The one document

00:33:17.680 that gives away

00:33:18.240 our nuclear secrets?

00:33:19.880 That's nothing

00:33:20.660 compared to a whole box.

00:33:22.480 There's a whole box

00:33:23.260 of things.

00:33:24.460 Did I tell you

00:33:25.100 there's a whole box?

00:33:26.840 Whoa,

00:33:27.360 more than one box.

00:33:28.940 We got boxes

00:33:29.780 upon boxes.

00:33:31.320 So therefore

00:33:31.880 that's worse

00:33:32.660 because if there's

00:33:34.060 one thing I could

00:33:34.700 tell you about

00:33:35.220 classified information,

00:33:36.780 you measure it

00:33:37.580 by the box.

00:33:39.180 By the box.

00:33:40.300 Yeah.

00:33:40.940 It's not by

00:33:41.640 how important it is.

00:33:43.320 Not by how critical

00:33:44.800 the secret is

00:33:45.600 or how much damage

00:33:46.800 it could do

00:33:47.240 to the United States

00:33:48.000 or how many people

00:33:49.000 could be killed.

00:33:50.460 Not important.

00:33:51.880 How many people

00:33:52.340 could be killed?

00:33:53.180 Not important.

00:33:53.580 How many people

00:33:54.180 are the fact, Jack,

00:33:55.220 but it gets better.

00:34:00.180 Also,

00:34:01.300 Daniel says,

00:34:02.760 Trump was charged

00:34:03.600 with knowingly

00:34:04.480 breaking the law

00:34:05.360 and obstructing

00:34:07.480 the investigation

00:34:08.260 while the FBI

00:34:09.400 concluded that Clinton

00:34:10.480 didn't act

00:34:11.260 with criminal intent.

00:34:14.660 Huh.

00:34:16.040 So according

00:34:16.880 to Daniel Dale,

00:34:18.080 who knows

00:34:18.740 what Trump knows,

00:34:21.840 when Trump says

00:34:23.240 taking it out

00:34:24.420 of the White House

00:34:24.960 was perfectly legal

00:34:26.100 because it's

00:34:27.440 my private stuff,

00:34:28.340 I just made it private,

00:34:30.340 that even though

00:34:31.820 he says that

00:34:32.680 and even though

00:34:33.240 it makes perfect sense

00:34:34.400 compared to,

00:34:35.300 you know,

00:34:36.280 precedent with Clinton

00:34:37.520 and it's completely

00:34:38.840 logical and makes sense,

00:34:40.160 what Daniel Dale knows

00:34:42.400 is that he was lying.

00:34:44.780 So even though

00:34:45.400 what he said

00:34:45.860 makes complete sense

00:34:47.040 and it's true,

00:34:50.920 Daniel Dale

00:34:52.120 can read his mind

00:34:53.080 and although

00:34:54.040 there are no statements

00:34:55.080 from Trump

00:34:55.720 to suggest this,

00:34:57.360 nothing written,

00:34:58.560 nothing reported,

00:35:00.720 Daniel Dale

00:35:01.240 can look into his mind

00:35:02.460 and see that he knew,

00:35:05.240 he knew,

00:35:06.740 yeah,

00:35:07.060 he knew that he

00:35:07.720 didn't have access

00:35:08.500 to these.

00:35:09.060 but,

00:35:10.520 he goes further than that,

00:35:11.800 he doesn't just

00:35:12.740 read

00:35:13.760 Trump's mind,

00:35:16.540 he said

00:35:17.600 that there was not

00:35:18.960 quote,

00:35:19.380 clear evidence

00:35:20.240 that Clinton

00:35:21.280 quote,

00:35:22.020 intended to violate laws.

00:35:26.380 She didn't,

00:35:26.940 yeah,

00:35:27.540 she didn't intend.

00:35:29.140 So when,

00:35:30.060 when they used hammers

00:35:31.140 to destroy their phones,

00:35:34.020 that was not intended

00:35:37.260 to hide any evidence,

00:35:40.400 I mean,

00:35:40.780 why would you even

00:35:41.360 think that?

00:35:42.680 Like,

00:35:43.120 where would you even

00:35:44.000 get that?

00:35:44.940 Sure,

00:35:45.340 they were looking

00:35:45.840 for our evidence

00:35:46.520 and they were asking

00:35:47.320 for it

00:35:47.800 and we destroyed it

00:35:49.260 with hammers,

00:35:50.000 but why would you

00:35:51.020 think that was

00:35:51.440 some kind of

00:35:51.840 like obstruct-y thing?

00:35:53.940 It's crazy of you,

00:35:55.060 right?

00:35:56.280 No,

00:35:56.940 so they read her mind

00:35:58.300 and found out

00:35:58.980 it was no problem,

00:36:00.080 but they read his mind

00:36:01.920 and oh,

00:36:02.320 oh my God,

00:36:03.840 did you see

00:36:04.300 the things

00:36:04.720 in his mind?

00:36:06.800 So CNN

00:36:07.540 literally

00:36:08.420 could write

00:36:08.940 some fact-checking

00:36:10.360 bullshit

00:36:10.860 about them

00:36:11.660 reading their

00:36:12.360 fucking minds

00:36:13.500 and they,

00:36:15.180 and they just

00:36:16.080 print it

00:36:16.480 like it's news.

00:36:18.380 Here's some more news.

00:36:20.440 We got our

00:36:20.840 mind reader on this,

00:36:22.060 our best mind reader

00:36:22.940 is working on this.

00:36:26.600 All right,

00:36:27.320 let's see,

00:36:32.380 Erasmussen

00:36:32.860 has a poll.

00:36:36.760 I'm not going

00:36:37.480 to look up

00:36:38.040 and it's because

00:36:39.420 I know that

00:36:40.040 my viewers

00:36:41.480 are so smart

00:36:42.340 that they already

00:36:43.480 know the results

00:36:44.220 of the poll

00:36:44.700 before I even

00:36:46.120 tell them the topic.

00:36:47.760 It's probably

00:36:48.560 screaming across

00:36:49.600 the screen

00:36:50.240 right now

00:36:50.780 and you are

00:36:52.300 within one,

00:36:53.820 one point

00:36:54.580 of the percentage

00:36:56.020 that is correct.

00:36:56.720 And the question

00:36:57.180 is this,

00:36:57.940 according to

00:36:58.420 Erasmussen

00:36:58.960 and talking

00:37:01.240 about the

00:37:02.200 likelihood

00:37:02.620 of cheating

00:37:03.460 in an election,

00:37:07.000 what percentage

00:37:07.740 of people

00:37:08.360 think that

00:37:10.160 the next election

00:37:11.140 cheating

00:37:12.200 is unlikely,

00:37:13.780 unlikely?

00:37:15.560 Well,

00:37:16.080 no,

00:37:16.320 let me say,

00:37:17.200 what percentage

00:37:17.980 consider it

00:37:18.660 not at all

00:37:19.420 likely?

00:37:22.100 You did it

00:37:23.080 again.

00:37:24.960 Amazing.

00:37:25.600 24% of

00:37:27.800 likely voters

00:37:28.780 say that

00:37:30.040 election rigging

00:37:31.280 is not at

00:37:32.240 all likely.

00:37:33.900 Well,

00:37:34.060 that's not

00:37:34.600 at all

00:37:34.920 likely.

00:37:36.300 24%.

00:37:36.940 So,

00:37:39.340 we got that.

00:37:42.380 Starbucks

00:37:42.940 is getting a

00:37:43.640 little heat

00:37:44.220 for allegedly,

00:37:45.980 but I don't

00:37:46.300 think it's

00:37:46.780 true,

00:37:47.840 taking down

00:37:48.800 their Pride

00:37:49.760 month displays

00:37:51.240 early,

00:37:51.800 before the

00:37:52.840 entire month

00:37:53.520 is over.

00:37:55.160 Now,

00:37:55.740 Starbucks

00:37:56.140 corporate

00:37:57.080 headquarters

00:37:57.560 says nothing

00:37:58.540 like that

00:37:59.000 is happening.

00:38:00.420 So,

00:38:00.920 apparently,

00:38:01.280 none of it's

00:38:01.700 true,

00:38:02.760 at least in

00:38:03.480 terms of a

00:38:04.040 corporate,

00:38:05.200 there are no

00:38:05.900 corporate orders

00:38:06.880 to do that.

00:38:08.080 It does appear

00:38:09.120 that it might be

00:38:09.960 true in individual

00:38:11.000 stores,

00:38:12.360 because individual

00:38:13.240 managers have

00:38:14.280 decided,

00:38:15.560 okay,

00:38:15.940 two weeks is

00:38:16.480 enough.

00:38:17.800 Maybe they

00:38:18.560 have customers

00:38:19.620 who are

00:38:19.960 complaining.

00:38:21.340 So,

00:38:21.580 there might be

00:38:21.980 individual stores

00:38:22.840 that are making

00:38:24.020 some individual

00:38:24.620 actions.

00:38:26.120 But,

00:38:26.380 so far,

00:38:28.340 Starbucks is

00:38:29.060 safe from

00:38:30.160 any boycotts,

00:38:32.760 and that probably

00:38:33.440 keeps them safe.

00:38:35.140 So,

00:38:35.400 this is the best

00:38:36.120 rumor that

00:38:36.960 Starbucks could

00:38:37.880 ever have.

00:38:39.140 It's sort of a

00:38:40.100 perfect situation,

00:38:41.360 because the

00:38:42.160 corporate office

00:38:42.860 can say,

00:38:43.540 probably honestly,

00:38:45.180 that no,

00:38:45.640 we didn't order

00:38:46.220 this.

00:38:47.460 Because if they

00:38:48.100 did,

00:38:48.440 there would be

00:38:48.680 a document or

00:38:49.780 something,

00:38:50.240 we'd know it

00:38:50.800 pretty soon.

00:38:51.560 So,

00:38:51.840 I don't think

00:38:52.260 they did.

00:38:52.680 I think they

00:38:53.060 didn't order it.

00:38:54.460 But at the

00:38:54.900 same time,

00:38:55.400 there's this

00:38:55.860 rumor that

00:38:56.480 they're backing

00:38:57.460 down from the

00:38:58.220 pride stuff,

00:38:59.260 they're taking

00:38:59.760 it down early,

00:39:00.620 which would make

00:39:01.820 the conservatives

00:39:02.540 say,

00:39:02.980 oh,

00:39:03.120 that's exactly

00:39:03.640 what I wanted

00:39:04.160 you to do.

00:39:05.360 So,

00:39:05.840 now they'll go

00:39:06.280 buy coffee.

00:39:07.560 So,

00:39:08.020 they've got a

00:39:08.580 story for both

00:39:09.300 sides.

00:39:10.540 You know,

00:39:10.780 for the left,

00:39:11.700 they can say,

00:39:12.320 no,

00:39:13.200 we did Pride

00:39:13.740 Month,

00:39:14.420 nothing's changed.

00:39:15.840 And for the

00:39:16.360 right,

00:39:16.620 they can say,

00:39:17.140 oh,

00:39:17.320 yeah,

00:39:17.560 we listened to

00:39:18.720 you and we

00:39:19.020 took it down.

00:39:20.360 So,

00:39:20.820 they win both

00:39:21.260 ways.

00:39:23.900 And I don't

00:39:24.520 know what's

00:39:24.880 true.

00:39:26.620 I saw a tweet

00:39:27.360 today by

00:39:28.100 Razeeb Khan,

00:39:30.580 who's an

00:39:32.320 interesting follow

00:39:33.080 on Twitter,

00:39:34.220 if you want

00:39:34.640 another follow.

00:39:35.940 A little

00:39:36.380 more provocative

00:39:37.080 than most,

00:39:38.080 but you might

00:39:38.680 like what he

00:39:39.100 has to say.

00:39:40.260 And he said

00:39:40.880 he was at a

00:39:41.280 party recently,

00:39:41.880 he was talking

00:39:42.320 to a 28-year-old

00:39:43.980 dev,

00:39:44.840 I guess that's

00:39:45.420 a software

00:39:45.860 development

00:39:46.460 person,

00:39:47.720 and kids

00:39:48.640 came up,

00:39:49.280 the idea of

00:39:49.720 having kids.

00:39:50.280 He's got a few

00:39:50.880 himself.

00:39:51.860 And he asked

00:39:52.500 her if she 0.93

00:39:54.060 and her boyfriend

00:39:54.640 had thoughts

00:39:55.240 of having kids.

00:39:55.780 And she

00:39:56.920 said no.

00:39:57.960 And she

00:39:58.340 gave three

00:39:58.880 reasons why

00:40:00.560 she doesn't

00:40:01.040 want to have

00:40:01.360 kids.

00:40:02.840 Number one,

00:40:03.580 climate change.

00:40:05.760 Number two,

00:40:06.780 overpopulation.

00:40:09.720 Number three,

00:40:11.060 she loves to 0.97

00:40:11.800 travel.

00:40:13.140 She loves to 0.97

00:40:13.740 travel.

00:40:14.860 Having kids

00:40:15.420 would be hard

00:40:15.960 for that.

00:40:17.000 And Razeeb

00:40:17.700 tweets,

00:40:18.500 when I pointed

00:40:19.220 out that number

00:40:19.860 three conflicted

00:40:20.860 with number

00:40:21.340 one, she

00:40:21.840 ignored me.

00:40:23.220 So number

00:40:24.000 three, she 0.97

00:40:24.480 loves to

00:40:24.900 travel.

00:40:25.780 But she's 0.97

00:40:26.320 also worried

00:40:26.840 about the

00:40:27.200 climate.

00:40:30.860 So she

00:40:31.560 wants to

00:40:32.040 not have

00:40:32.880 children so

00:40:34.280 that she

00:40:34.620 can use

00:40:35.020 up all

00:40:35.380 of her

00:40:35.780 climate

00:40:36.400 credits

00:40:36.960 traveling.

00:40:41.840 But then

00:40:43.620 number two

00:40:44.200 is even

00:40:44.640 funnier,

00:40:45.220 overpopulation.

00:40:48.460 Who believes

00:40:49.360 that we're

00:40:49.640 overpopulated?

00:40:51.320 We don't

00:40:51.860 even have

00:40:52.220 replacement

00:40:52.780 level population

00:40:53.740 in America.

00:40:54.700 America has 0.83

00:40:56.160 one of the

00:40:56.540 best population

00:40:58.820 stability

00:40:59.680 situations

00:41:00.420 compared to

00:41:01.080 other

00:41:01.480 Westernized

00:41:04.800 countries,

00:41:05.320 I guess,

00:41:06.280 in that we're

00:41:07.300 not going

00:41:07.800 down as

00:41:08.240 fast.

00:41:09.720 But most

00:41:10.600 of the big

00:41:11.960 countries are

00:41:12.540 not at

00:41:12.920 replacement.

00:41:14.120 I mean,

00:41:14.380 China is 0.85

00:41:14.980 estimated to

00:41:16.040 go from

00:41:16.340 1.3

00:41:17.200 billion down

00:41:17.780 to 700

00:41:18.380 million in

00:41:19.940 the next

00:41:20.400 few decades.

00:41:21.080 We have

00:41:22.240 a population

00:41:23.100 collapse

00:41:23.880 problem that

00:41:25.020 might be

00:41:25.920 calamitous.

00:41:27.580 We don't

00:41:27.940 have a

00:41:28.340 population,

00:41:29.300 you know,

00:41:30.340 overpopulation

00:41:31.560 problem.

00:41:32.420 In some,

00:41:33.000 you know,

00:41:33.160 there's some

00:41:33.540 pockets that

00:41:34.240 are overpopulated.

00:41:35.280 But generally

00:41:35.800 speaking,

00:41:36.200 we need more

00:41:36.780 people,

00:41:37.180 not fewer,

00:41:38.080 especially in

00:41:38.780 America.

00:41:39.800 And so here's

00:41:40.340 somebody whose

00:41:41.120 understanding of

00:41:42.980 the world is

00:41:43.520 so poor

00:41:44.200 that she's

00:41:46.560 going to

00:41:46.840 travel to

00:41:48.480 help the

00:41:48.840 climate.

00:41:50.100 Or something.

00:41:51.820 I don't know,

00:41:52.460 not exactly that,

00:41:53.420 but it feels

00:41:53.840 like that.

00:41:55.040 So that's the

00:41:55.700 quality of a

00:41:56.660 software developer

00:41:57.540 who's 28

00:41:58.240 years old.

00:41:58.960 That's that

00:42:00.040 person's

00:42:00.560 understanding of

00:42:01.260 the world.

00:42:03.260 Imagine making

00:42:04.180 decisions that

00:42:06.820 are vital to

00:42:07.560 the survival

00:42:08.460 of our

00:42:09.080 civilization,

00:42:10.060 which is

00:42:10.540 having children

00:42:11.340 or not,

00:42:12.660 and traveling

00:42:13.600 or not,

00:42:14.200 and climate

00:42:14.880 and all that.

00:42:15.560 These are the

00:42:15.980 most important

00:42:16.760 decisions to

00:42:17.760 our future

00:42:18.980 civilization.

00:42:20.820 And there's

00:42:21.180 a 28-year-old

00:42:22.160 who doesn't

00:42:22.740 know anything

00:42:23.380 about any

00:42:23.900 of these topics,

00:42:25.040 just completely

00:42:25.820 clueless about

00:42:26.560 all of it.

00:42:27.660 And yet has

00:42:28.100 to make

00:42:28.380 individual

00:42:28.880 decisions,

00:42:29.900 you know,

00:42:30.960 that sum up

00:42:31.780 to the whole.

00:42:33.980 All right.

00:42:36.640 What else

00:42:37.380 has happened

00:42:37.760 here?

00:42:41.720 Do you

00:42:42.300 think that

00:42:42.720 Trump has

00:42:43.260 set up a

00:42:44.000 mutually

00:42:44.540 assured

00:42:45.120 destruction

00:42:46.060 situation

00:42:46.760 with the

00:42:47.520 Bidens?

00:42:48.360 It's not

00:42:48.920 quite that.

00:42:50.280 But

00:42:50.520 Trump said

00:42:52.280 he's basically

00:42:52.980 going to

00:42:53.340 take down

00:42:53.740 the Bidens

00:42:54.300 when elected.

00:42:54.940 And it

00:42:56.500 looks like

00:42:56.880 he's got

00:42:57.240 enough material

00:42:58.000 with these

00:42:59.080 bribery

00:42:59.980 allegations that

00:43:00.800 he could at

00:43:01.180 least get a

00:43:02.240 special prosecutor.

00:43:03.780 That doesn't

00:43:04.220 mean that

00:43:04.540 anything is

00:43:05.400 guilty.

00:43:06.260 But we have

00:43:06.820 additional

00:43:07.560 accusations

00:43:08.940 about the

00:43:09.620 Bidens

00:43:10.000 today.

00:43:10.460 that

00:43:11.740 apparently

00:43:12.160 on Joe

00:43:13.860 Biden's

00:43:14.320 2017

00:43:14.920 tax returns

00:43:16.060 he has

00:43:17.800 some kind

00:43:18.200 of entity

00:43:18.740 called

00:43:19.280 Celtic

00:43:20.580 Capri

00:43:21.020 Corporation

00:43:21.680 and has

00:43:23.020 $10 million

00:43:23.580 of revenue

00:43:25.240 that's

00:43:25.660 unspecified.

00:43:28.520 He had

00:43:29.040 $10 million

00:43:29.600 of unspecified

00:43:30.860 revenue

00:43:31.360 in 2017.

00:43:34.880 Do I need

00:43:38.920 to say

00:43:39.180 anything else

00:43:39.700 about that?

00:43:40.940 $10 million

00:43:41.640 of unspecified

00:43:43.020 revenue.

00:43:44.160 Now I think

00:43:44.720 he tried to

00:43:45.720 sell it as

00:43:46.360 book advances.

00:43:48.080 Book advances.

00:43:49.300 But if it

00:43:49.860 was book

00:43:50.280 advances

00:43:50.680 why not

00:43:51.920 just put a

00:43:52.380 line there?

00:43:53.720 Book advances.

00:43:55.740 There you go.

00:43:57.960 I feel like

00:43:59.020 you would

00:43:59.300 probably

00:44:00.040 itemize

00:44:01.040 $10 million

00:44:02.840 worth of

00:44:03.660 income

00:44:04.080 by line

00:44:05.020 item.

00:44:06.060 $10 million

00:44:06.620 is a lot

00:44:07.200 to have

00:44:08.140 as just

00:44:08.580 a well

00:44:09.040 I don't

00:44:09.380 know

00:44:09.520 $10 million

00:44:10.020 showed up.

00:44:12.440 Don't have

00:44:13.060 to tell you

00:44:13.460 where.

00:44:14.400 I don't

00:44:14.820 know if

00:44:15.080 he legally

00:44:15.540 has to

00:44:16.060 probably not.

00:44:17.780 I don't

00:44:18.100 think he

00:44:18.420 legally had

00:44:18.940 to say

00:44:19.260 the details

00:44:20.200 of it.

00:44:21.440 But

00:44:21.680 I feel

00:44:23.720 like we

00:44:24.020 need to

00:44:24.340 know.

00:44:25.360 I feel

00:44:25.600 like we

00:44:25.920 need to

00:44:26.220 know.

00:44:26.960 It's a

00:44:27.320 little

00:44:27.420 sketchy.

00:44:29.340 But it

00:44:29.860 could have

00:44:30.120 it's also

00:44:30.660 possible it

00:44:31.260 was his

00:44:31.620 book.

00:44:32.420 It's

00:44:32.820 possible it

00:44:33.520 was his

00:44:33.880 book stuff.

00:44:34.840 That's

00:44:35.060 possible.

00:44:36.740 Do you

00:44:36.980 think he

00:44:38.720 gets that

00:44:39.260 much for

00:44:39.700 a book

00:44:40.040 because how

00:44:41.200 many people

00:44:41.660 buy it?

00:44:43.580 Do you

00:44:44.020 think a

00:44:45.540 publisher

00:44:45.860 would pay

00:44:46.380 $5,

00:44:47.700 $7,

00:44:48.000 $10 million

00:44:48.600 for a

00:44:49.300 book of

00:44:50.680 Biden's?

00:44:52.220 How many

00:44:52.820 books do

00:44:53.900 you think

00:44:54.120 Biden would

00:44:54.740 sell?

00:44:56.980 I don't

00:44:57.700 see any

00:44:58.140 world in

00:44:58.780 which a

00:44:59.320 publisher

00:44:59.620 would pay

00:45:00.040 that much

00:45:00.480 for his

00:45:00.860 book.

00:45:01.200 because there's

00:45:02.500 no way it's

00:45:03.020 going to sell

00:45:03.340 a lot of

00:45:03.700 copies.

00:45:04.340 It would

00:45:04.620 just be a

00:45:04.980 loss of

00:45:05.700 millions.

00:45:07.340 So there's

00:45:08.260 something going

00:45:08.700 on with

00:45:09.020 publishing that

00:45:09.920 I don't fully

00:45:10.500 understand but

00:45:11.180 I feel like

00:45:12.060 publishing might

00:45:12.800 be a way that

00:45:13.360 they launder

00:45:13.900 money.

00:45:15.840 Am I

00:45:16.420 wrong?

00:45:17.820 It's like

00:45:18.320 somehow the

00:45:19.000 publisher gets

00:45:21.120 some windfall

00:45:21.940 over here and

00:45:23.620 then they've got a

00:45:24.200 little extra

00:45:24.680 cash to give

00:45:25.620 Joe a windfall

00:45:27.300 over here.

00:45:27.860 But those

00:45:28.940 two things are

00:45:29.500 not connected

00:45:30.120 by any

00:45:30.580 logic.

00:45:31.080 It's just

00:45:31.340 oh how

00:45:31.880 lucky.

00:45:32.940 How lucky

00:45:33.460 that a

00:45:34.080 major

00:45:35.020 Democrat

00:45:35.600 bought a

00:45:36.760 billion of

00:45:37.340 our books

00:45:37.820 for their

00:45:39.200 organization or

00:45:40.240 something like

00:45:40.620 that.

00:45:40.880 I don't know.

00:45:41.180 I'm just

00:45:41.400 making that

00:45:41.840 up.

00:45:42.720 But I

00:45:43.780 feel like

00:45:44.240 this is how

00:45:44.980 money gets

00:45:45.900 laundered at

00:45:46.520 the high

00:45:46.840 end.

00:45:47.940 Oh your

00:45:48.480 book deal is

00:45:49.160 going to be

00:45:49.460 25 million

00:45:50.280 dollars even

00:45:51.000 though we

00:45:51.360 expect to

00:45:51.840 make 1

00:45:52.700 million dollars

00:45:53.360 in revenue.

00:45:53.820 Scott's just

00:45:58.120 jealous because

00:45:58.900 Hunter is a

00:45:59.680 better artist.

00:46:00.880 You know

00:46:01.160 what's funny

00:46:01.520 about that?

00:46:02.620 Hunter is a

00:46:03.300 better artist.

00:46:05.540 Hunter's not a

00:46:06.260 bad artist.

00:46:08.260 I mean

00:46:08.900 can't we give

00:46:10.260 him that?

00:46:12.340 We can give

00:46:13.200 him that can't

00:46:13.760 we?

00:46:14.080 He's not a

00:46:14.540 bad artist.

00:46:15.880 He's pretty

00:46:16.400 good.

00:46:19.060 I don't take

00:46:19.840 that as an

00:46:20.320 insult at all.

00:46:21.980 But nice

00:46:22.500 try.

00:46:23.820 So Schiff

00:46:26.580 there's a

00:46:28.440 motion in the

00:46:29.100 House a

00:46:29.440 resolution to

00:46:31.560 censor Adam

00:46:33.440 Schiff for

00:46:34.360 his lies about

00:46:35.700 what was in

00:46:36.180 the SCIF and

00:46:37.100 his lies about

00:46:38.560 the Russia

00:46:39.000 collusion thing.

00:46:40.380 Now of

00:46:41.500 course Schiff

00:46:41.940 is just using

00:46:42.760 it as

00:46:43.100 fundraising and

00:46:44.180 probably nothing

00:46:45.200 will happen.

00:46:46.360 But if you

00:46:47.800 can't get

00:46:48.300 censured for

00:46:50.220 trying to

00:46:50.720 overthrow the

00:46:51.460 government of

00:46:51.940 the United

00:46:52.280 States by

00:46:53.440 making up a

00:46:54.400 lie which

00:46:54.980 has been

00:46:55.480 determined to

00:46:56.360 be a lie

00:46:56.840 what can

00:46:59.340 you be

00:46:59.660 censured for?

00:47:01.000 Would you

00:47:01.460 have to

00:47:01.780 actually murder

00:47:02.360 somebody?

00:47:03.340 What's the

00:47:03.820 point of

00:47:04.100 even having

00:47:04.560 a censure?

00:47:06.060 If this

00:47:06.700 doesn't qualify

00:47:07.440 for a

00:47:07.860 censure

00:47:08.260 like what's

00:47:11.900 what would

00:47:12.820 ever be

00:47:13.360 censured?

00:47:14.140 Why do you

00:47:14.720 even have

00:47:15.120 it?

00:47:15.820 I can't even

00:47:16.340 imagine anything

00:47:16.960 more perfectly

00:47:18.340 suited for a

00:47:19.100 censure.

00:47:19.420 because it's

00:47:20.680 not like he

00:47:21.140 doesn't even

00:47:21.580 lose his

00:47:22.000 job.

00:47:23.120 All it is

00:47:23.660 is a

00:47:24.640 recognition that

00:47:26.240 this wasn't

00:47:26.800 cool.

00:47:28.200 And given

00:47:28.500 that nobody

00:47:29.180 thought it

00:47:29.560 was cool,

00:47:30.460 I don't

00:47:30.760 think,

00:47:32.140 it seems

00:47:32.540 like a

00:47:32.820 slam dunk,

00:47:33.480 but I don't

00:47:33.760 think it'll

00:47:34.080 pass.

00:47:34.360 All right.

00:47:41.420 And I

00:47:42.100 saw also

00:47:42.640 from Joel

00:47:43.420 Pollack in

00:47:44.500 Breitbart that

00:47:45.960 the New York

00:47:46.360 Times published

00:47:47.060 a profile of

00:47:48.080 Hollywood star

00:47:48.880 Cheryl Hines.

00:47:49.820 As you know,

00:47:50.340 she's married

00:47:51.500 to RFK Jr.

00:47:53.500 And they're

00:47:54.700 blaming her

00:47:55.280 for, quote,

00:47:56.160 normalizing

00:47:57.140 RFK Jr.

00:47:59.980 So the

00:48:00.620 idea is that

00:48:01.400 since she's

00:48:02.100 a recognized

00:48:03.280 Hollywood figure

00:48:05.060 and has a

00:48:06.540 good reputation,

00:48:07.580 you know,

00:48:07.740 there's no

00:48:08.180 negatives about

00:48:08.820 her that I'm

00:48:09.260 aware of,

00:48:10.200 that she would

00:48:11.120 sort of make

00:48:12.140 her husband

00:48:12.960 look more

00:48:13.520 normal.

00:48:18.300 Yes,

00:48:18.880 that's exactly

00:48:19.480 what it does.

00:48:21.080 That's exactly

00:48:21.920 what it does.

00:48:22.940 But where's

00:48:24.320 the problem

00:48:24.820 with that?

00:48:26.640 Why is that

00:48:27.060 a story?

00:48:28.900 You know,

00:48:29.300 shouldn't the

00:48:29.820 story be,

00:48:31.340 let me give

00:48:32.220 you a different

00:48:32.580 way that the

00:48:33.120 story could

00:48:33.600 have been

00:48:33.880 written.

00:48:35.300 A lot of

00:48:36.120 people think

00:48:36.720 that RFK Jr.

00:48:38.820 is a nut

00:48:39.740 job because

00:48:40.740 of, you

00:48:41.860 know,

00:48:41.980 vaccinations

00:48:42.500 or whatever,

00:48:43.200 whatever is

00:48:43.740 the current

00:48:44.160 thing about

00:48:44.600 him.

00:48:45.480 But he

00:48:46.920 obviously

00:48:47.380 married this

00:48:48.240 woman who 0.99

00:48:50.000 is normal,

00:48:51.620 and if she

00:48:52.060 married him,

00:48:53.560 she probably 0.99

00:48:54.040 looked into

00:48:54.560 all that

00:48:54.980 stuff.

00:48:56.300 So if the

00:48:57.320 person who

00:48:57.800 knows him

00:48:58.340 best,

00:48:59.560 his wife,

00:49:01.100 was willing

00:49:01.660 to think,

00:49:02.160 oh yeah,

00:49:02.680 not only

00:49:04.100 are you

00:49:04.380 normal,

00:49:04.920 but you're

00:49:06.380 so normal

00:49:06.860 I want to

00:49:07.240 marry you,

00:49:07.880 live the

00:49:08.320 rest of my

00:49:08.720 life with

00:49:09.120 you.

00:49:10.220 Is that

00:49:10.880 normalizing him?

00:49:12.800 Yes.

00:49:13.840 Yes it is.

00:49:14.640 Is that a

00:49:16.500 problem?

00:49:18.840 Is that a

00:49:19.520 problem?

00:49:20.360 Is it a

00:49:20.900 problem that

00:49:21.480 somebody can

00:49:22.080 find a

00:49:22.620 normal wife? 0.99

00:49:23.320 I would

00:49:24.900 say that

00:49:25.340 would, in

00:49:26.000 fact, be

00:49:26.640 a, that's

00:49:28.860 very much a

00:49:29.640 point in

00:49:30.020 his favor.

00:49:31.620 Wouldn't you

00:49:32.160 say that if

00:49:33.000 a perfectly

00:49:33.900 normal person

00:49:34.880 can look

00:49:36.400 into it and

00:49:36.960 all the

00:49:37.240 detail that

00:49:37.740 she must

00:49:38.080 have about

00:49:38.540 him that

00:49:38.920 we don't

00:49:39.260 have, and

00:49:40.220 then at

00:49:40.520 the end

00:49:40.860 of it she

00:49:41.340 says,

00:49:42.280 yeah, I

00:49:42.640 want to

00:49:42.920 marry you.

00:49:44.680 Shouldn't

00:49:45.040 that be

00:49:45.340 telling us

00:49:45.880 that he's

00:49:46.160 doing something

00:49:46.660 right?

00:49:48.700 And somehow

00:49:49.180 they've turned

00:49:49.680 it into this

00:49:50.320 weird negative

00:49:51.580 where if

00:49:52.600 your wife

00:49:53.160 loves you

00:49:53.780 it's a

00:49:54.680 problem.

00:49:58.320 Am I

00:49:58.960 taking that

00:49:59.400 too far?

00:50:00.360 Are they

00:50:00.880 basically saying

00:50:01.580 it's a

00:50:01.900 problem because

00:50:02.460 his normal

00:50:03.060 wife loves

00:50:04.220 him?

00:50:05.840 Therefore

00:50:06.280 that might

00:50:06.760 make you

00:50:07.120 think he's

00:50:07.560 normal?

00:50:09.680 You know,

00:50:10.460 I have to

00:50:11.220 admit that I

00:50:12.020 was deeply

00:50:12.840 in the camp

00:50:13.540 of thinking

00:50:14.040 he was a

00:50:14.560 nut job

00:50:15.120 until recently.

00:50:18.300 Yeah, right.

00:50:18.780 So I'm a

00:50:19.360 reformed

00:50:20.080 critic and

00:50:23.220 I didn't

00:50:23.660 realize the

00:50:24.160 extent to

00:50:24.720 which the

00:50:25.660 mainstream

00:50:26.240 media was

00:50:26.900 bullshit.

00:50:28.240 I just

00:50:28.680 assumed if

00:50:29.240 everybody's

00:50:30.020 saying that

00:50:30.400 about him,

00:50:31.000 it just felt

00:50:31.760 like everybody

00:50:32.380 was saying

00:50:32.860 that, but

00:50:33.980 it was the

00:50:34.260 mainstream

00:50:34.540 media, the

00:50:35.860 mainstream

00:50:36.280 media funded

00:50:37.080 by the

00:50:37.640 people who

00:50:38.220 are his

00:50:38.580 enemies,

00:50:39.400 Big Pharma.

00:50:40.680 So my

00:50:41.360 current view

00:50:42.060 is that I

00:50:43.320 doubt he

00:50:43.840 was right

00:50:44.340 about everything

00:50:45.080 he's ever

00:50:45.580 said.

00:50:46.680 Would you

00:50:47.040 give me

00:50:47.300 that?

00:50:48.380 I doubt

00:50:48.840 he was

00:50:49.120 right about

00:50:49.580 every claim

00:50:50.280 he's ever

00:50:50.680 made,

00:50:51.240 because he's

00:50:51.580 made some

00:50:51.940 pretty big

00:50:52.440 claims.

00:50:53.920 But I'll

00:50:54.380 bet some

00:50:54.760 of them

00:50:55.000 are right,

00:50:55.840 and I know

00:50:56.600 he's right

00:50:57.020 about the

00:50:57.680 biggest part

00:50:58.280 of the

00:50:58.480 claims,

00:50:58.980 which is

00:50:59.300 that a

00:51:00.140 lot of

00:51:00.360 things were

00:51:00.700 not tested

00:51:01.340 at the

00:51:01.780 level that

00:51:02.240 you and

00:51:02.540 I thought

00:51:02.900 they were

00:51:03.160 tested.

00:51:04.100 That part

00:51:04.720 seems to

00:51:05.120 be totally

00:51:05.500 right.

00:51:06.660 And that's

00:51:07.060 a big deal,

00:51:08.340 and it's

00:51:08.700 really valuable,

00:51:10.160 in my opinion,

00:51:11.380 that he's

00:51:11.760 bringing it

00:51:12.240 up.

00:51:12.860 I think it's

00:51:13.500 also really

00:51:14.160 valuable that he's

00:51:14.980 bringing up the

00:51:15.720 CIA's bad

00:51:16.800 behavior in the

00:51:17.420 past, and he

00:51:18.720 allegesly probably

00:51:20.220 killed his

00:51:20.780 uncle.

00:51:22.040 Who knows

00:51:22.740 about his

00:51:23.140 father?

00:51:24.400 And I think

00:51:26.900 that he's a

00:51:27.340 mixed bag,

00:51:28.760 meaning I think

00:51:29.460 he got some

00:51:30.000 wrong and I

00:51:30.560 think he got

00:51:30.980 some right,

00:51:32.000 but he's

00:51:33.000 also very

00:51:33.700 reasonable.

00:51:35.440 And if the

00:51:36.580 data shows he

00:51:37.360 got something

00:51:37.840 wrong, I think

00:51:38.540 he would just

00:51:39.000 go with it and

00:51:39.780 say, yeah, I

00:51:40.200 got that wrong,

00:51:40.980 let's move

00:51:41.380 on.

00:51:41.580 So he

00:51:42.960 doesn't look

00:51:43.380 like a, to

00:51:44.300 me, he

00:51:44.580 doesn't look

00:51:44.940 like a

00:51:45.360 crazed, you

00:51:47.100 know, ignore

00:51:47.580 the data, you

00:51:49.120 know, I'm

00:51:49.340 just afraid of

00:51:50.020 something kind

00:51:50.560 of guy.

00:51:50.820 It looks like

00:51:51.260 he follows

00:51:51.620 the data.

00:51:52.560 And I think

00:51:53.220 the data's

00:51:53.700 been a little

00:51:54.100 ambiguous, but

00:51:55.840 I don't think

00:51:56.200 he's not

00:51:56.600 following data.

00:51:59.060 All right.

00:52:00.660 There's a

00:52:01.220 story that

00:52:02.660 showed a

00:52:03.120 Russian soldier

00:52:04.060 surrendering to

00:52:05.960 a drone, a

00:52:06.980 Ukrainian drone.

00:52:08.780 So apparently

00:52:09.300 there was this

00:52:09.820 little group of,

00:52:11.580 Russian soldiers

00:52:12.600 that had been

00:52:13.120 spotted in kind

00:52:14.740 of open

00:52:15.160 territory.

00:52:16.540 And there

00:52:16.800 were Ukrainians

00:52:17.560 who were just

00:52:17.940 sending, I

00:52:19.080 don't know if

00:52:19.360 it was the

00:52:19.660 same drone or

00:52:20.520 multiple drones

00:52:21.260 over the

00:52:21.740 little ones, just

00:52:22.980 to drop

00:52:23.620 grenades on

00:52:25.120 them.

00:52:26.060 And there

00:52:26.540 was just

00:52:26.860 basically nothing

00:52:27.580 they could do.

00:52:28.200 These drones 0.59

00:52:28.640 were just

00:52:29.040 going to follow

00:52:30.080 them around and

00:52:30.760 drop grenades

00:52:31.520 on them until

00:52:32.060 they were all

00:52:32.460 dead.

00:52:33.220 So one of the

00:52:33.860 guys on the

00:52:34.320 ground surrendered

00:52:35.180 to the drone.

00:52:36.980 Like he looked

00:52:37.520 up at the drone

00:52:38.140 and he was like

00:52:38.700 signaling, you

00:52:39.380 know, stop, we

00:52:40.160 surrender somehow.

00:52:42.120 And then the

00:52:44.140 drone, I don't

00:52:45.020 know, captured

00:52:46.380 him or something.

00:52:47.000 I don't know what

00:52:47.380 happened after he

00:52:48.020 surrendered, but that

00:52:49.120 was the story.

00:52:50.300 So I think it was

00:52:53.680 a story because it

00:52:54.980 might be the first

00:52:55.700 time somebody

00:52:56.300 surrendered to a

00:52:57.300 drone.

00:52:57.600 drone, but don't

00:52:59.200 you think you'll

00:52:59.660 see a lot more

00:53:00.260 of that?

00:53:01.420 Because as the

00:53:02.000 drones get a

00:53:02.600 little more

00:53:02.940 sophisticated, don't

00:53:04.240 you think they'll

00:53:04.780 just offer a

00:53:05.840 surrender option?

00:53:08.600 Hello, Russian

00:53:09.380 soldier.

00:53:10.440 We are above your

00:53:11.540 location.

00:53:13.360 You cannot run

00:53:14.320 away.

00:53:14.640 There's no place

00:53:15.140 to hide.

00:53:16.040 We will be dropping

00:53:17.160 hand grenades on

00:53:18.020 you unless you

00:53:19.480 surrender.

00:53:19.860 If you choose to

00:53:21.300 surrender, put your

00:53:22.160 weapons down.

00:53:23.020 We're watching you

00:53:23.640 right now and

00:53:24.660 march westward with

00:53:25.880 your hands up.

00:53:27.900 I feel like that's

00:53:29.140 what it will be in

00:53:29.660 the future, right?

00:53:30.660 Because once the

00:53:31.880 drone had the drop

00:53:32.940 on them, the

00:53:33.920 soldiers knew they

00:53:34.740 didn't have a

00:53:35.600 defense.

00:53:38.640 But it's also

00:53:39.420 interesting that the

00:53:40.300 drone was high

00:53:41.240 enough up that they

00:53:42.040 didn't think they

00:53:42.560 could shoot at it

00:53:43.480 because I didn't see

00:53:45.040 them even trying to

00:53:45.880 shoot at it.

00:53:46.440 They were just

00:53:46.800 running and hiding.

00:53:49.180 Those were

00:53:50.140 helicopters, not

00:53:51.020 drones?

00:53:51.400 No, if it were

00:53:54.080 helicopters and it

00:53:55.160 was directly over

00:53:56.480 them, they would

00:53:56.960 have been shooting

00:53:57.400 at the helicopter.

00:53:59.020 That couldn't have

00:54:00.100 been helicopters.

00:54:03.400 In my opinion, it

00:54:05.120 could not have

00:54:05.540 been.

00:54:06.040 All right, ladies 1.00

00:54:06.560 and gentlemen, that

00:54:07.540 is the conclusion of

00:54:09.020 my prepared remarks.

00:54:11.160 Did I miss

00:54:11.540 anything?

00:54:16.540 Shooting at a 0.66

00:54:17.200 helicopter is not a

00:54:18.000 good idea.

00:54:19.080 Well, it is if the

00:54:19.900 helicopter is trying

00:54:20.560 to kill you. 0.97

00:54:21.400 Slaughter meter, it's

00:54:23.580 a little too early.

00:54:26.200 Oh my God, yeah, I

00:54:27.500 just saw a mention of

00:54:28.400 Tom Brady.

00:54:29.260 Did anybody see the

00:54:30.100 video of Tom Brady

00:54:31.280 knocking a drone

00:54:33.340 out of the sky with

00:54:34.580 one throw of a

00:54:36.500 football?

00:54:37.840 Did you see that?

00:54:39.480 That was just the

00:54:40.440 most crazy thing.

00:54:42.400 I've seen a few

00:54:43.040 videos of him being

00:54:45.660 insanely accurate with

00:54:46.960 the football, but I

00:54:48.780 don't know what the

00:54:49.500 setup was for what a

00:54:51.160 show or whatever, but

00:54:52.340 they had a drone that

00:54:53.540 was flying off a boat.

00:54:56.540 So Tom Brady's on the

00:54:57.880 boat and they give him

00:54:58.580 the football and they

00:54:59.560 ask him to knock the

00:55:01.440 drone out of the sky.

00:55:03.680 Now, the drone was low

00:55:05.000 enough, you know, that he

00:55:06.220 didn't have to throw it

00:55:06.960 way up, but it was a

00:55:09.220 drone.

00:55:09.780 It was like a little

00:55:10.680 drone that's like two

00:55:12.040 feet square.

00:55:13.240 And he just knocked that

00:55:16.460 frickin' thing out of the

00:55:17.300 sky with one throw.

00:55:19.840 It was probably the most

00:55:20.860 impressive thing you'll

00:55:21.780 ever see an athlete do

00:55:23.400 the rest of your life.

00:55:24.700 And I thought, how often

00:55:26.680 could he do that?

00:55:28.660 Was it just luck?

00:55:29.840 He hit it on the first

00:55:30.660 try?

00:55:32.960 I mean, it was just

00:55:33.680 insane to watch it.

00:55:35.280 Yeah, that was very

00:55:35.840 cool.

00:55:37.920 Yeah, maybe it was CGI.

00:55:39.280 Who knows?

00:55:39.700 Yeah, will Thomas

00:55:45.220 Massey read, what was

00:55:48.020 it, the, he was

00:55:50.240 offering to read the

00:55:51.380 FBI document that

00:55:53.480 alleges the bribery of

00:55:56.300 the Bidens?

00:55:57.780 Is that what he said he

00:55:58.640 could read in Congress?

00:55:59.680 Because it's legal to read

00:56:00.820 it, but it's not legal to

00:56:01.740 have it?

00:56:03.460 Or something like that?

00:56:05.080 He can't show it to you,

00:56:07.220 but he can read it to you

00:56:08.100 in Congress?

00:56:08.580 There's some weird rule

00:56:10.380 like that, he was

00:56:11.580 teasing he might do

00:56:12.460 that.

00:56:14.520 Oh, you can read it

00:56:15.160 into the record.

00:56:22.460 Narcan, every household. 0.97

00:56:28.300 RIP, your son?

00:56:30.960 What?

00:56:34.440 Okay, I don't get that,

00:56:35.780 but let me tell you

00:56:38.240 something about Narcan

00:56:39.220 that I learned the

00:56:39.940 other day.

00:56:41.700 All right, this is

00:56:42.440 very important.

00:56:43.880 Allow me to save

00:56:44.880 some lives.

00:56:45.980 All right, so you

00:56:46.580 all know that if you

00:56:47.220 have Narcan, you

00:56:48.660 might be able to save

00:56:49.560 somebody who's having

00:56:51.020 a fentanyl overdose.

00:56:53.640 And I guess you just

00:56:54.500 spray it up their nose

00:56:55.400 or something.

00:56:56.360 Here's what you need

00:56:57.200 to know.

00:56:58.620 From somebody who's

00:56:59.960 in that life,

00:57:00.840 a person told me

00:57:04.980 privately,

00:57:07.360 it often takes

00:57:08.580 two to three

00:57:09.320 Narcans to revive

00:57:10.420 somebody.

00:57:12.220 Did you know that?

00:57:13.860 It works very well,

00:57:15.900 but sometimes the first

00:57:16.980 one doesn't work.

00:57:18.040 And it might not work

00:57:19.100 because maybe you're not

00:57:20.120 good at administering it.

00:57:21.840 Like, you might not

00:57:22.780 quite execute it right.

00:57:25.740 So if you're a police

00:57:27.900 officer and you show up

00:57:29.060 with a Narcan, you

00:57:29.780 probably have a few

00:57:30.460 extra.

00:57:31.520 Because you might come

00:57:32.680 up against a scene

00:57:33.660 where there's a party

00:57:34.880 situation and three

00:57:35.920 people are, you know,

00:57:37.140 down at the same time.

00:57:38.860 So the police are

00:57:40.020 usually set.

00:57:41.000 You know, they're going

00:57:41.440 to have an extra.

00:57:42.820 But if you just bought

00:57:43.880 one for your house,

00:57:45.020 in case your neighbor

00:57:45.960 needs it, think about

00:57:48.420 three.

00:57:49.660 Just think about

00:57:50.300 three.

00:57:50.760 I know it's expensive,

00:57:52.420 but I just need you to

00:57:53.460 know that there's at

00:57:54.880 least anecdotally,

00:57:56.020 the first one doesn't

00:57:56.780 always work.

00:57:57.960 And it is life and

00:57:58.820 death.

00:58:00.280 So think about three.

00:58:02.160 Just think about it.

00:58:03.680 I'll just put that out

00:58:04.540 there as my public

00:58:05.440 service.

00:58:09.400 How does Ukraine

00:58:10.480 figure into my theory

00:58:12.120 that hot wars will

00:58:13.140 become increasingly

00:58:14.180 rare?

00:58:15.500 Well, it seems like

00:58:16.440 every hot war is

00:58:18.880 proving that we

00:58:19.840 shouldn't have another

00:58:20.620 one.

00:58:21.880 But you could argue

00:58:22.820 that was true since

00:58:23.720 World War I, right?

00:58:24.880 That was the war to 0.95

00:58:26.280 end all wars.

00:58:27.820 So I do think that

00:58:31.100 this war is this

00:58:32.860 weird follow-the-rules

00:58:34.760 kind of fight where

00:58:36.780 people are trying to do

00:58:37.780 things according to the

00:58:38.900 rules of military

00:58:40.900 action.

00:58:41.760 And that's why it's

00:58:42.440 staying at least

00:58:43.520 localized.

00:58:45.400 So the fact that it's

00:58:46.880 localized and is not

00:58:48.240 creating yet a world

00:58:50.100 war might be a step in 0.99

00:58:52.420 the right direction.

00:58:53.420 But it doesn't make

00:58:54.360 sense to have wars that

00:58:55.300 nobody can win.

00:58:56.840 So I think you're going

00:58:57.860 to see that the

00:58:59.220 Ukraine-Russia thing

00:59:00.760 ends up with a war that

00:59:02.000 nobody won.

00:59:03.420 So that would be to my

00:59:04.800 theory that once you

00:59:06.100 realize you can't win a

00:59:07.160 war anymore, there just

00:59:08.940 is no winning, then you

00:59:11.140 don't do it.

00:59:11.940 Now, an exception would

00:59:12.860 be the Middle East where

00:59:14.300 there's not really

00:59:15.120 governments in some

00:59:16.640 areas.

00:59:17.000 you're battling the

00:59:19.440 terrorists and their

00:59:20.300 little groups and

00:59:21.260 stuff.

00:59:21.880 Now, that might still

00:59:23.660 be worth doing for a

00:59:24.780 long time, because

00:59:26.260 that's more like

00:59:26.840 maintenance or mowing

00:59:27.800 the lawn.

00:59:28.960 But in terms of two

00:59:30.200 countries putting their

00:59:31.420 tanks on the battlefield

00:59:32.500 and attacking each

00:59:34.140 other across the

00:59:34.780 border, I think Ukraine

00:59:36.380 and Russia are the 0.97

00:59:37.460 proof that it doesn't

00:59:38.480 work anymore.

00:59:40.440 So, and I think you

00:59:43.860 would also have to say

00:59:44.600 we did everything wrong

00:59:46.040 or we did everything

00:59:48.260 to cause this.

00:59:49.540 This didn't happen on

00:59:50.640 its own.

00:59:51.660 This was the United

00:59:52.520 States acting poorly

00:59:53.940 for a long time to

00:59:56.360 just force this into

00:59:58.220 being.

00:59:59.280 Yeah, this isn't the

01:00:00.600 avoidable fight that,

01:00:02.980 you know, if things

01:00:04.260 had gone a little

01:00:04.840 differently, maybe we

01:00:05.980 wouldn't be in a war.

01:00:07.220 This was somebody

01:00:08.060 trying to start a war

01:00:09.240 as hard as they could,

01:00:10.500 and then finally they

01:00:11.420 got one.

01:00:11.820 So, it doesn't feel

01:00:15.340 like a normal war.

01:00:17.860 In fact, I would argue

01:00:19.780 that the news is

01:00:21.300 already starting to

01:00:22.360 shift its coverage

01:00:23.400 from a war to a

01:00:25.300 negotiation.

01:00:26.380 I saw that today on

01:00:27.540 CNN, I think.

01:00:29.460 There was a reference

01:00:30.500 to that the Ukrainians

01:00:32.880 were trying to capture

01:00:33.820 some territory with

01:00:34.880 their counteroffensive

01:00:35.680 to have a stronger

01:00:37.220 negotiating position.

01:00:39.640 Just think about that.

01:00:40.800 So, this is the news,

01:00:42.800 just matter-of-factly,

01:00:44.940 framing it as improving

01:00:46.840 their negotiating

01:00:47.920 situation.

01:00:49.780 In other words, the

01:00:50.960 war is over.

01:00:52.520 The war is over.

01:00:54.640 There's not going to be

01:00:55.340 a military conflict,

01:00:56.560 or there's not going to

01:00:57.240 be a nuclear conflict.

01:00:58.780 And the reason there's

01:00:59.560 not going to be a

01:01:00.080 nuclear conflict, the

01:01:02.120 war is over.

01:01:03.440 We are in advanced

01:01:04.760 negotiations right now,

01:01:06.860 and a lot of that

01:01:07.620 looks like who's going

01:01:08.580 to have a bead on

01:01:10.360 maybe Crimea or

01:01:11.900 something.

01:01:12.780 Well, basically, this is

01:01:14.160 the violent negotiation

01:01:16.580 part of the war.

01:01:18.240 There's no longer a hope

01:01:19.580 on either side of

01:01:21.200 something like victory.

01:01:23.040 Victory is off the

01:01:24.000 table.

01:01:25.280 It's just a negotiation

01:01:26.580 now.

01:01:27.420 A very bad one.

01:01:30.320 All right.

01:01:31.920 YouTube, I'm going to

01:01:32.880 say goodbye for now,

01:01:33.820 and I'm going to

01:01:34.780 stick around and talk

01:01:35.460 to the locals people

01:01:36.360 because they're special.

01:01:38.420 And I'll see you in the

01:01:40.240 morning.

01:01:41.640 Best live stream ever.
