Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2162 Scott Adams： Would It Surprise You To Know The News Is Mostly Sketchy Today？

00:00:00.000 Ba-ba, la-da-da-da-da. 0.54

00:00:04.440 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:10.300 Best thing that'll ever happen to you.

00:00:12.220 Truly, best thing.

00:00:13.820 And if you'd like this experience to be wow,

00:00:18.120 like the kind that you'll talk about forever,

00:00:20.820 well, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein,

00:00:24.040 a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:27.260 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:29.040 I like coffee.

00:00:31.520 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.

00:00:33.680 The dopamine hit of the day thing makes everything better.

00:00:36.560 It's called a simultaneous sip.

00:00:39.020 It happens now, go.

00:00:43.760 Ah, good.

00:00:46.280 That's good.

00:00:48.260 Well, top of the news, Asa Hutchinson has entered the race.

00:00:55.380 So Asa Hutchinson, he's in the race.

00:01:01.700 Rasmussen did a poll.

00:01:03.900 And by the way, I saw there were some new people here.

00:01:08.280 For the new people, would you like to show how smart you will be?

00:01:12.500 And by the way, for the new people, this will happen to you too.

00:01:16.760 You can see already on Locals, and maybe you'll start seeing it a little bit on YouTube,

00:01:22.120 that people, there it is, people are answering a question before I've asked it.

00:01:27.880 Before I've asked it.

00:01:29.960 And the, now watch this.

00:01:31.760 Watch it.

00:01:32.000 If you're new, this will be pretty amazing.

00:01:34.060 Because you can see the answers right there.

00:01:36.360 You can see them streaming by.

00:01:38.060 And they have the same answer.

00:01:39.080 And I have not asked the question.

00:01:41.540 Here's the question.

00:01:43.300 According to a Rasmussen poll,

00:01:45.660 what percentage of likely voters have a favorable opinion of Hutchinson?

00:01:51.080 Well, look at that.

00:01:52.660 It's 25%.

00:01:53.960 25%.

00:01:56.420 You people are amazing.

00:01:59.300 You're amazing.

00:02:00.080 Now, for the new people, I know this looks like magic to you.

00:02:05.800 If you're new to the live stream, it looks like magic.

00:02:08.260 It does.

00:02:09.040 If you were watching, I don't know, Crowder or Russell Brand, can they do this?

00:02:14.000 They can't do this.

00:02:15.120 No.

00:02:15.560 I can tell you the news before it happens.

00:02:19.520 Literally.

00:02:22.380 I literally tell you the news before it happens.

00:02:25.480 All right.

00:02:25.960 Well, pretty impressive.

00:02:27.180 If you don't believe that I can tell you the news before it happens,

00:02:34.140 where's Purgosian?

00:02:38.880 I told you you'd never see him again.

00:02:41.500 Certainly not in Belarus.

00:02:43.860 Well, it turns out he's not in Belarus.

00:02:46.740 Not in Belarus at all.

00:02:48.800 And the news is catching up, as you know.

00:02:51.200 CNN just can't let go.

00:02:54.920 This made me laugh this morning.

00:02:56.460 CNN is reporting that, you know, the Wagner offices and Purgosian's, I don't know,

00:03:04.280 maybe his residence or something, they were all searched.

00:03:08.940 And the Russian government is saying that they searched Purgosian's belongings,

00:03:14.740 and then they gave him back his stuff.

00:03:16.620 And then CNN reported it.

00:03:26.780 Then Russia gave Purgosian back his stuff.

00:03:30.660 And he's just driving around Russia.

00:03:35.040 He's somewhere in Russia, just driving around.

00:03:38.580 He's just living his best life.

00:03:40.220 He's just, hey, where's Purgosian?

00:03:46.740 He's in St. Petersburg.

00:03:48.920 No, no, no, he's in Moscow.

00:03:50.460 I think he's in Belarus.

00:03:52.240 But I'll tell you what, he's got all of his stuff, and he's living his best life.

00:03:56.880 That's totally happening.

00:03:58.000 That's what you'd believe if you'd been watching CNN.

00:04:03.980 He's got an RV.

00:04:05.400 He's got an RV.

00:04:12.700 He's got an RV.

00:04:13.880 Oh, my God, the mental image of Purgosian just driving an RV around Russia.

00:04:33.360 Everything's fine.

00:04:34.920 Everything's good.

00:04:36.500 How's things going, Purgosian?

00:04:38.620 Oh, I've never been happier.

00:04:40.940 Got to see the country.

00:04:43.880 It's a good thing I've got an RV so I can hold all my stuff that they gave back.

00:04:49.080 I got my Bitcoin back there.

00:04:52.120 Big pile of cash.

00:04:54.120 Yeah.

00:04:54.540 When the Russians found that big pile of cash, the first thing they did was give it back to Purgosian. 0.89

00:05:01.360 And you know what's interesting?

00:05:02.760 They gave him back his stuff without knowing where he was.

00:05:07.800 I don't know how they did that.

00:05:10.240 They probably have a really good mail service.

00:05:12.060 Address it to Purgosian in your RV, wherever you are.

00:05:19.640 And then he got his stuff back.

00:05:24.560 Oh, my.

00:05:25.480 So, Threads launched, as you know, the Twitter killer application from Zuckerberg.

00:05:35.820 And I guess I'm sure this is already a dated number, but over 30 million people signed up right away.

00:05:42.520 See what that's about.

00:05:43.640 But out of 30 million people, what number of them said they were thrilled by the product?

00:05:53.140 30 million people signed up.

00:05:55.480 Total number of people were thrilled by the product and pretty happy it exists.

00:06:00.120 No, it's not 25%.

00:06:02.200 No, it's not 25%.

00:06:05.380 I haven't heard anybody.

00:06:08.520 Has anybody heard even one story, even one, of anybody who went to Threads and said, oh, yeah, this is going to be good.

00:06:18.680 Oh, I'm so happy to be on a Twitter with no interesting people.

00:06:24.240 Oh, I haven't heard a single person say they liked it.

00:06:29.680 I've heard people say it exists.

00:06:32.080 I've heard people say they've signed up.

00:06:34.220 I've heard people say they used it.

00:06:36.740 Not one person said they enjoyed it.

00:06:40.500 Can you think of a product that would have 30 million customers and none of them are happy?

00:06:47.720 Actually, none of them.

00:06:48.700 I mean, there might be some, like, Democrats who are happy that there aren't trolls there.

00:06:54.280 How long do you think it will take to put trolls there if it gets filled with Democrats?

00:07:00.400 In theory, in theory, Threads should evolve into the Democrat Twitter, right?

00:07:06.440 Do you kind of expect that?

00:07:08.160 If there's a Democrat Twitter, do you think that any, do you think any Republican trolls might, just for fun,

00:07:18.700 might take a wanderer over there, maybe just saunter over to see what's happening on Threads?

00:07:28.220 In theory, it'll just be the cesspool of Democrats and trolls and nothing else.

00:07:36.740 But I say this jokingly.

00:07:40.260 Now, the question is, will I sign up?

00:07:42.460 What do you think?

00:07:43.940 Will I sign up for Threads?

00:07:45.300 See if you can anticipate what I would do.

00:07:49.900 Will I sign up for Threads?

00:07:52.940 Yeah, of course I will.

00:07:54.500 Of course I will.

00:07:55.580 But I would use it just for, you know, promotion.

00:08:00.240 So, use it for promotion, that's fine for that.

00:08:04.200 We'll see what happens.

00:08:06.000 All right.

00:08:06.260 There's a big story today that Jimmy, Jimmy Doerr had a piece where he's, he says that the CDC knew the mandates were based on a falsehood and they lied about it, even knowing it.

00:08:19.700 And that we know that now because of documents and emails.

00:08:22.500 So, we know that when the CDC said, these vaccinations are great and they're stopping the spread and all that, that they knew it was a lie.

00:08:33.720 Now, have you seen that in the news?

00:08:37.440 Did you see that on Fox News?

00:08:39.900 No, I didn't see it there.

00:08:41.140 Did you see it on CNN?

00:08:43.080 No?

00:08:43.980 Nope.

00:08:44.580 Did not see it on CNN.

00:08:46.040 Think it's true?

00:08:47.800 Nope.

00:08:49.580 Nope.

00:08:49.940 Do you think Jimmy Doerr showed you the document?

00:08:54.140 Or did he show you somebody talking about a document?

00:08:59.740 I don't know.

00:09:01.820 Here's how I would look at this critically.

00:09:04.600 I only looked at it a little bit, but I didn't see any documents.

00:09:08.580 And if this had been true, wouldn't you expect it would be in the news?

00:09:15.420 It would be the biggest news, wouldn't it?

00:09:17.700 It would be the biggest thing in the news.

00:09:20.940 No?

00:09:22.420 You don't think that Fox News would cover it?

00:09:26.780 Right, Bart?

00:09:29.120 I don't know.

00:09:29.840 Do you think it's true?

00:09:31.700 My guess is, if I looked at the documents and heard what the CDC said, maybe it's, you know...

00:09:39.020 And let me be clear.

00:09:40.680 I hope it doesn't sound like I'm supporting the CDC.

00:09:43.740 You're not getting that, are you?

00:09:45.000 This is just about the quality of news and information.

00:09:49.060 It's not about the CDC.

00:09:50.100 I don't have, you know...

00:09:51.940 Because I don't know what's real.

00:09:53.760 I have no idea what's real in this story.

00:09:56.360 But is it likely that there would be a publicly available document that says the CDC clearly knew they were lying at the same time as the document,

00:10:07.720 and the news isn't covering it?

00:10:11.740 Hmm.

00:10:12.100 I'm going to say there's something wrong with the story.

00:10:16.900 I'm not supporting the CDC.

00:10:18.860 I'm not saying that they told the truth.

00:10:21.240 I'm saying that the story has something wrong with it.

00:10:24.620 I just don't know what.

00:10:25.440 Jimmy Dore put down Scott Adams in a few pieces.

00:10:30.880 That's true.

00:10:32.420 Now, so far, I have the best opinion of the pandemic, meaning the most accurate predictions.

00:10:40.800 Jimmy Dore and a lot of other people fell for some hoaxes about my opinions.

00:10:47.440 So usually, I think Jimmy Dore was reacting to the hoax, not my actual opinions.

00:10:51.960 I'm not sure that he disagrees with me about anything.

00:10:54.320 But he would certainly disagree with the hoax version of my opinion, as do I.

00:11:00.200 I also disagree with the hoax version of my opinion.

00:11:04.560 But now we've seen I have the best opinion on Trump-related politics,

00:11:10.080 the best opinion on the pandemic by far.

00:11:12.560 Nobody even came close.

00:11:14.620 Best opinion on Prigozhin and the Ukraine war so far, by far.

00:11:20.620 Nobody's even close.

00:11:21.600 That is after my biggest mistake, which was saying that Russia would be stupid if they attacked Ukraine,

00:11:28.820 because it would be a disaster for Russia, and it would be obvious.

00:11:32.720 And it was a disaster for Russia, and it was obvious. 0.88

00:11:36.000 They did it anyway.

00:11:37.420 So I got that one totally wrong.

00:11:38.700 But I do have the unambiguously best predictions on everything important.

00:11:46.320 It's true.

00:11:48.000 You can hate me for it.

00:11:49.920 I practically hate myself.

00:11:52.920 But it's true.

00:11:55.300 Who had the best opinion about the secret sonic weapon that was attacking the embassies?

00:12:01.740 I didn't.

00:12:02.420 I'm the only one who said it was fake from the first day.

00:12:05.820 Totally fake.

00:12:08.220 All right.

00:12:09.200 So if you're tracking my record of success,

00:12:12.540 I would say I seem to be best at telling you what's not true.

00:12:18.400 I think I'm probably less good.

00:12:20.420 I don't know for sure.

00:12:21.200 I think I'm less good at telling you what's true.

00:12:25.160 Let's talk about the Kraken.

00:12:26.680 The Kraken got me excited,

00:12:28.940 because it came from what I thought at the time was a real source.

00:12:34.440 But in the end, I had the best opinion on the elections, by far.

00:12:38.940 Because I told you from day one that there would be all kinds of claims about election impropriety.

00:12:44.640 And I told you that 95% of them would be fake, guaranteed.

00:12:48.440 And I didn't know if there would be 5% that were real,

00:12:53.040 but 95% would be fake, guaranteed.

00:12:56.860 Did that pan out?

00:12:58.800 Do you think my 95% were fake, panned out?

00:13:01.680 Exactly.

00:13:02.260 It was exactly correct.

00:13:04.000 Now, I don't know if there's 5% that's true.

00:13:07.060 Don't know that.

00:13:08.480 But at least 95% of them were not true.

00:13:11.320 We can say that with some certainty at the moment.

00:13:15.020 And you were wrong.

00:13:18.300 Now, the other thing that I've said,

00:13:19.600 which is the only smart take on the election integrity,

00:13:23.360 is that it's not auditable, so you can't know.

00:13:27.400 You can't know if it was rigged.

00:13:29.120 It's not knowable.

00:13:30.740 And if you have a situation where there's a reason to rig it,

00:13:34.820 and there's payoff and lots of people involved,

00:13:36.680 and all that,

00:13:40.160 that the rigging is guaranteed.

00:13:43.460 It's actually guaranteed by the situation.

00:13:46.320 The only thing you can't guarantee is when and how much.

00:13:50.840 You can't guarantee when.

00:13:52.920 You can't guarantee how much.

00:13:54.900 But you can guarantee it

00:13:56.100 because it's a situation that guarantees it happens over time.

00:14:00.160 You just don't know when.

00:14:01.900 That's the best opinion on the election.

00:14:05.080 If you say it's guaranteed you know that it was rigged,

00:14:08.640 well, I haven't seen the proof.

00:14:12.160 If you say you're sure that it wasn't,

00:14:15.740 I mean, that's just crazy talk.

00:14:18.120 So you can't be sure of either one,

00:14:19.820 but you can be sure that the situation guarantees it will be,

00:14:23.020 or has been.

00:14:23.640 So by far, that's the best opinion of the election.

00:14:28.500 Now, I did get excited about the Kraken.

00:14:31.840 So I'm not going to try to minimize that.

00:14:35.060 But even with that,

00:14:36.900 by far the best opinion.

00:14:40.840 All right.

00:14:41.500 Because remember,

00:14:42.420 the Kraken was also under the 95% rule.

00:14:46.100 When the Kraken happened,

00:14:47.540 I already said,

00:14:48.740 but be careful.

00:14:50.300 95% will be bullshit.

00:14:51.980 And that just happened to be part of it.

00:14:54.300 Now, on the Kraken,

00:14:55.360 I was the,

00:14:56.020 I believe I was the first person in the country to say,

00:14:59.200 there's no way that the general,

00:15:03.220 the Venezuelan general stuff is true.

00:15:06.000 Right?

00:15:06.960 Was I the first person?

00:15:08.520 Probably the first person in the country 0.87

00:15:09.900 who said in public,

00:15:11.800 there's no way that's true.

00:15:13.920 By its nature,

00:15:15.220 that's not true.

00:15:17.280 So that was probably the best opinion.

00:15:18.480 All right.

00:15:20.800 There might be still a Kraken in the future,

00:15:22.940 but no Krakens yet.

00:15:26.280 So we don't know about Jimmy Dore.

00:15:28.100 We know he was wrong about me.

00:15:31.060 I know he was totally wrong about me,

00:15:33.020 but we don't know if he's wrong about this yet.

00:15:35.920 All right.

00:15:36.240 There was a study that says

00:15:37.500 early risers are happier.

00:15:40.780 Like,

00:15:41.380 there's a strong correlation

00:15:43.580 between getting up early

00:15:45.660 and not being depressed.

00:15:49.100 Do you believe that was science?

00:15:51.320 It's science.

00:15:53.340 It must be true.

00:15:55.100 Because it's in the media.

00:15:57.060 And it's science.

00:15:59.280 Do you think,

00:16:01.360 I'm just going to speculate for a moment,

00:16:03.320 I'm no science guy,

00:16:05.820 but

00:16:06.100 I wonder,

00:16:08.960 I wonder,

00:16:10.200 if you are depressed,

00:16:13.160 I'm not depressed,

00:16:14.340 so I'll have to ask you,

00:16:15.780 if there's anybody depressed here,

00:16:18.400 no,

00:16:18.880 there's nobody depressed here

00:16:19.900 because you didn't get up on time

00:16:21.240 to watch this.

00:16:22.700 But,

00:16:23.700 hypothetically,

00:16:24.540 is there anybody

00:16:25.020 who has ever been depressed?

00:16:26.780 Can you answer me

00:16:27.780 this important question?

00:16:29.420 Again,

00:16:29.820 I'm no scientist.

00:16:30.800 I'm not a researcher.

00:16:32.120 But it just seems like

00:16:33.120 an obvious question.

00:16:34.540 When you're depressed,

00:16:36.360 do you like getting out of bed?

00:16:39.260 Do you like getting up

00:16:39.980 and attacking the day?

00:16:42.240 Or do you say to yourself,

00:16:43.520 you know,

00:16:43.960 I'd rather be unconscious,

00:16:45.240 frankly.

00:16:46.260 I think I'll sleep

00:16:47.040 another two hours.

00:16:49.480 So,

00:16:50.480 one wonders

00:16:52.080 if there's a

00:16:53.640 cause and effect

00:16:54.860 that may be reversed here,

00:16:56.640 maybe,

00:16:57.420 like every other study

00:16:58.740 we've ever seen

00:16:59.440 in the news forever,

00:17:00.740 where they get always

00:17:01.700 the cause and effect reversed,

00:17:03.180 every time,

00:17:04.320 like every time.

00:17:05.860 It's almost impossible

00:17:06.940 to see something

00:17:07.800 that doesn't look

00:17:09.380 like they've reversed

00:17:10.780 the cause and effect.

00:17:11.520 I feel like science

00:17:13.100 is 75%

00:17:14.980 of people

00:17:15.840 trying to fool you

00:17:16.860 into thinking

00:17:17.520 correlation,

00:17:19.160 maybe it does mean

00:17:20.300 causation in this case.

00:17:22.380 Maybe it does.

00:17:25.280 75%.

00:17:25.800 25%,

00:17:27.680 it's actually causation.

00:17:29.440 I mean,

00:17:29.760 I'm just making up

00:17:30.440 these numbers.

00:17:31.480 But by far,

00:17:32.320 the majority of these stories

00:17:33.520 are not true.

00:17:34.900 By far,

00:17:35.640 they're not true.

00:17:36.200 So if you were

00:17:37.580 to believe a story

00:17:38.380 like this

00:17:38.820 because it was

00:17:39.300 in the news,

00:17:40.400 well,

00:17:40.940 do that at your

00:17:41.840 caution.

00:17:45.020 Now,

00:17:45.500 they do say,

00:17:46.340 to their credit,

00:17:48.160 it's not like

00:17:49.100 they didn't,

00:17:50.100 it's not like

00:17:50.860 they weren't aware

00:17:51.600 that there's a

00:17:52.560 causation correlation

00:17:53.660 issue here.

00:17:55.720 They did say

00:17:56.520 that you can

00:17:57.180 decrease your risk

00:17:59.500 by 23%

00:18:00.600 by shifting

00:18:01.240 your sleep schedule.

00:18:03.240 Do you believe that?

00:18:04.260 Do you believe

00:18:05.960 you can decrease

00:18:06.800 your risk of

00:18:07.560 depression

00:18:08.140 by becoming

00:18:09.400 a morning person?

00:18:12.580 That feels

00:18:13.700 about right,

00:18:14.400 actually.

00:18:15.620 So one of my

00:18:16.720 little rules

00:18:17.280 about science

00:18:18.100 is that if your

00:18:19.940 anecdotal

00:18:20.760 observation of life

00:18:22.300 happens to match

00:18:24.140 the science,

00:18:25.340 that doesn't mean

00:18:26.020 it's true.

00:18:27.320 But that's way better

00:18:28.180 than if it doesn't

00:18:28.920 match, right?

00:18:30.420 I always use

00:18:31.260 cigarettes as the

00:18:32.020 example.

00:18:33.060 Science says

00:18:33.700 cigarettes give

00:18:34.380 you lung cancer.

00:18:36.120 And sure enough,

00:18:37.480 I know several

00:18:38.240 people who smoke

00:18:39.020 cigarettes and got

00:18:39.740 lung cancer.

00:18:40.860 I know one

00:18:42.200 person who had

00:18:42.740 lung cancer and

00:18:43.520 didn't smoke

00:18:43.980 cigarettes in my

00:18:45.000 whole life.

00:18:46.540 So that sounds

00:18:47.520 about right,

00:18:48.600 probably.

00:18:50.280 And when they

00:18:51.140 say that shifting

00:18:52.220 to a morning

00:18:53.280 person makes you

00:18:54.180 happier,

00:18:55.220 that also

00:18:56.200 matches my

00:18:57.680 anecdotal

00:18:58.460 experience.

00:18:59.360 depression,

00:19:00.360 because now

00:19:01.280 I don't know if

00:19:02.780 it would make

00:19:03.100 any difference

00:19:03.720 at all to

00:19:04.380 organic depression,

00:19:06.380 so I'm not

00:19:06.860 sure if they're

00:19:07.300 defining depression

00:19:08.280 in the real

00:19:09.580 clinical,

00:19:10.600 you can't get

00:19:11.240 out of bed

00:19:11.680 kind of way,

00:19:12.360 or if they

00:19:13.300 just mean people

00:19:14.300 who say they're

00:19:14.920 depressed because

00:19:15.720 they're sad,

00:19:16.480 but it's not

00:19:17.820 exactly the same

00:19:18.680 clinical situation.

00:19:20.520 You could

00:19:21.140 definitely change

00:19:21.960 your experience

00:19:23.220 of life

00:19:23.940 from bad

00:19:26.520 or average

00:19:27.180 to pretty good

00:19:28.200 by getting up

00:19:29.180 early.

00:19:30.400 I don't know

00:19:31.200 if that's the

00:19:31.660 same as

00:19:32.060 depression.

00:19:34.720 Isn't

00:19:35.080 depression an

00:19:36.240 actual sort

00:19:37.660 of chemical,

00:19:38.560 physical problem

00:19:39.580 that's more than

00:19:41.280 just what's

00:19:41.760 happening in your

00:19:42.320 life?

00:19:43.700 I thought it

00:19:44.520 was.

00:19:45.400 But I could

00:19:47.160 certainly see

00:19:47.980 that people who

00:19:48.840 would describe

00:19:49.620 themselves as

00:19:50.400 depressed,

00:19:51.420 but maybe

00:19:51.980 they're not

00:19:52.720 clinically exactly

00:19:53.900 technically depressed

00:19:55.340 the way a doctor

00:19:56.040 would say.

00:19:56.840 I could see

00:19:57.460 that those people

00:19:58.080 would be happier,

00:19:59.520 and there's a

00:20:00.640 really good reason

00:20:01.360 why.

00:20:02.260 The first several

00:20:03.380 hours of my day,

00:20:04.340 I don't have

00:20:04.780 contact with other

00:20:05.960 people in person.

00:20:07.960 Do you know

00:20:08.700 how good that is

00:20:09.620 for your mental

00:20:10.160 health?

00:20:11.260 Do not have

00:20:12.060 contact with other

00:20:13.160 people for the

00:20:13.980 first few hours

00:20:14.720 you're awake.

00:20:15.800 It's amazing.

00:20:19.140 So, like most

00:20:20.900 of you, I've had

00:20:22.000 good days and bad.

00:20:23.900 Right?

00:20:24.780 Like, you know,

00:20:25.500 life gives you

00:20:26.720 ups and downs.

00:20:28.620 But I've said

00:20:30.120 this before,

00:20:31.780 that I've almost

00:20:33.180 never in my

00:20:34.760 entire adult

00:20:35.960 life, never

00:20:37.220 had a bad

00:20:38.880 time between

00:20:40.740 4 and

00:20:43.280 9 a.m.

00:20:46.000 Ever.

00:20:47.440 It just doesn't

00:20:48.600 happen.

00:20:49.760 Between 4 and

00:20:50.800 9 a.m.

00:20:51.440 every day,

00:20:52.660 7 days a week,

00:20:53.920 365 days a day,

00:20:55.740 I'm going to have

00:20:56.620 a great time.

00:20:58.460 Now, I love doing

00:20:59.260 this, which is why

00:21:00.260 I do it during this

00:21:01.180 time.

00:21:02.180 So, this is like

00:21:03.240 purely fun for me.

00:21:05.340 I mean, it's

00:21:05.640 sort of a job.

00:21:08.840 It's the best job

00:21:09.880 ever, because it's

00:21:10.820 doing exactly what

00:21:11.980 I'd want to do.

00:21:12.760 Like, exactly.

00:21:13.740 I don't do a single

00:21:14.600 thing I don't want to

00:21:15.560 do right now, which

00:21:16.860 is talking to you

00:21:17.640 about fun topics

00:21:18.580 that I would like

00:21:19.680 to talk about

00:21:20.220 anyway.

00:21:21.320 So, if you told

00:21:24.400 me you could take

00:21:25.220 me from somebody

00:21:26.100 who sleeps in

00:21:26.820 until 10 a.m.,

00:21:28.460 and you could

00:21:29.040 convert me to

00:21:29.840 somebody who

00:21:30.320 guarantees us

00:21:31.180 five excellent

00:21:32.920 hours every day,

00:21:34.560 those five hours

00:21:35.480 are not just

00:21:36.060 okay.

00:21:37.180 They're really

00:21:37.800 good.

00:21:38.740 Like, I love

00:21:39.700 the morning.

00:21:40.680 I love it.

00:21:42.420 Afternoons?

00:21:43.460 Afternoons can

00:21:44.140 be good or bad.

00:21:45.660 Evenings?

00:21:47.020 Can be good,

00:21:47.640 can be bad.

00:21:48.760 Mostly they're

00:21:49.360 good.

00:21:49.900 I don't really

00:21:50.340 have too many

00:21:50.780 bad days.

00:21:52.020 But the mornings

00:21:53.320 are guaranteed.

00:21:54.940 So, if you tell

00:21:55.580 me that getting

00:21:56.180 up, shifting from

00:21:57.180 waking up at

00:21:57.820 10 a.m. to

00:21:58.520 shifting to

00:21:59.240 4 or 5 a.m.

00:22:00.420 makes you

00:22:00.860 happier, I'd

00:22:01.940 say, absolutely.

00:22:03.660 You just added

00:22:04.520 like a quarter of

00:22:05.840 your awake time.

00:22:07.020 You just improved

00:22:07.780 massively.

00:22:09.820 So, when they

00:22:10.360 say you can

00:22:11.580 reduce your risk

00:22:12.340 of depression by

00:22:13.080 23%, that hits

00:22:14.540 right on the

00:22:16.420 nose of my

00:22:17.560 actual experience.

00:22:18.560 Right on the

00:22:19.000 nose.

00:22:19.600 It's about a 0.56

00:22:20.140 25% everyday

00:22:22.260 improvement, because

00:22:23.500 of just those

00:22:24.180 hours being

00:22:24.780 awesome.

00:22:27.460 Anyway, highly

00:22:28.900 recommend that you

00:22:29.960 experiment with

00:22:30.960 getting up early.

00:22:32.240 If you say to

00:22:33.060 yourself you're not

00:22:33.820 a morning person,

00:22:35.460 they also mention

00:22:36.520 in the study that

00:22:38.260 you might be able

00:22:39.940 to change yourself

00:22:41.360 into a morning

00:22:42.040 person.

00:22:42.400 Now, I didn't

00:22:44.560 think I was a

00:22:45.180 morning person

00:22:45.740 until I was.

00:22:48.520 I don't know how

00:22:49.220 uncommon that is,

00:22:50.540 but I've heard

00:22:51.000 other people shift

00:22:52.040 to the super early

00:22:53.680 morning and made

00:22:54.400 it work.

00:22:55.780 But I do think

00:22:56.720 there's a difference.

00:22:57.460 I think some

00:22:57.980 people's natural

00:22:59.440 biology would not

00:23:00.400 allow them to do

00:23:01.100 that, but you

00:23:01.860 might be surprised

00:23:02.640 if you're one of

00:23:03.420 them.

00:23:03.960 All right, there's

00:23:04.340 a new Kamala

00:23:06.020 Harris word salad

00:23:08.440 nonsense video.

00:23:09.620 I don't think

00:23:10.640 we have to play

00:23:11.300 it, right?

00:23:12.800 Do you need to

00:23:13.860 see another one?

00:23:15.120 Just trust me.

00:23:16.200 It's her trying

00:23:16.920 to talk and

00:23:17.600 failing, right?

00:23:19.420 Which we're

00:23:20.060 completely used to

00:23:20.980 at this point.

00:23:22.500 Now, it's funny

00:23:25.540 that every video

00:23:26.780 of Kamala Harris

00:23:27.700 talking in public

00:23:28.660 gets labeled a

00:23:30.860 cringe video.

00:23:32.700 A cringe video.

00:23:34.420 Imagine if your

00:23:36.380 major candidate

00:23:37.240 for office,

00:23:38.080 for vice

00:23:38.860 president,

00:23:39.620 whenever they

00:23:41.280 talked about

00:23:42.380 any topic in

00:23:43.780 public, people

00:23:45.120 cringed and

00:23:46.440 went, oh, God.

00:23:48.980 Every time.

00:23:50.760 Like, every time.

00:23:53.420 So, I'll tell you

00:23:55.360 the lesson here.

00:23:58.640 This is one of my

00:24:00.400 mother's greatest

00:24:01.260 lessons.

00:24:02.260 You can get used

00:24:03.400 to anything if you

00:24:04.300 do it long enough.

00:24:06.420 And then the

00:24:07.240 punchline to that

00:24:08.180 was including

00:24:09.060 hanging, right?

00:24:10.540 If you get hung,

00:24:12.000 you can get used

00:24:12.560 to it if you do

00:24:13.000 it long enough.

00:24:14.840 You just get used

00:24:15.900 to anything.

00:24:17.140 We actually got

00:24:18.300 used to having a

00:24:19.520 president and a

00:24:20.280 vice president who

00:24:21.600 were not, let's say,

00:24:23.720 verbally gifted.

00:24:24.520 when Harris and

00:24:28.120 Biden were running.

00:24:29.460 It was very clear that

00:24:31.440 they were not, let's

00:24:34.040 say, gifted in the

00:24:35.440 communication skills.

00:24:37.500 You know, they weren't

00:24:38.180 really even up to the

00:24:39.940 level that most

00:24:41.140 politicians are.

00:24:42.760 Most politicians.

00:24:44.560 But am I wrong that it's

00:24:46.640 gotten worse?

00:24:48.580 That's not my

00:24:49.460 imagination, right?

00:24:50.380 But not only has

00:24:52.280 Biden gotten worse

00:24:53.220 from obvious

00:24:54.320 decline from age,

00:24:55.800 I mean, I think we

00:24:56.640 all see it,

00:24:57.700 but it seems to me

00:24:59.320 that Harris used

00:25:01.120 to make sense.

00:25:03.000 Somebody tweeted

00:25:04.420 today a video of

00:25:05.660 her from before she

00:25:06.900 was vice president

00:25:07.600 in which she was

00:25:09.140 at some congressional

00:25:11.200 hearing and she was

00:25:12.360 getting tough on

00:25:13.020 somebody.

00:25:13.780 And she sounded

00:25:14.600 like she was

00:25:15.160 completely in control.

00:25:16.340 she sounded like

00:25:18.040 she understood

00:25:19.820 the world and

00:25:20.580 knew how to talk.

00:25:22.620 But she doesn't

00:25:23.460 display any of

00:25:25.780 those skills that

00:25:27.520 were well on

00:25:28.500 display before she

00:25:29.600 became vice

00:25:30.160 president.

00:25:31.160 What's up with

00:25:31.920 that?

00:25:32.660 Now, that's what

00:25:33.260 fooled me completely

00:25:34.320 because early on I

00:25:36.260 picked her to be,

00:25:37.260 you know, a

00:25:37.740 likely president.

00:25:40.620 And it was based

00:25:43.080 on early videos of

00:25:44.360 her performing 0.96

00:25:45.240 her job.

00:25:46.440 And I said,

00:25:46.900 oh, there's

00:25:47.340 somebody who's,

00:25:48.320 you know, not

00:25:48.860 only tough, has a

00:25:50.820 commanding voice.

00:25:52.240 Remember I talked

00:25:53.060 about a commanding

00:25:53.960 voice versus a

00:25:54.860 pleading voice?

00:25:56.260 She had a

00:25:56.720 commanding voice.

00:25:58.380 You know, she was

00:25:59.100 a woman of color.

00:26:01.400 She was a senator.

00:26:03.480 She was young

00:26:04.100 enough.

00:26:05.100 You know, she had

00:26:05.540 the right backers.

00:26:07.000 I mean, it looked

00:26:07.520 like she had the

00:26:08.060 whole package.

00:26:09.780 Something happened.

00:26:12.160 And it looks like

00:26:13.200 drugs or alcohol.

00:26:15.240 Now, I'm not

00:26:18.740 saying I know

00:26:19.460 that that's the

00:26:20.100 case.

00:26:20.800 I'm saying that

00:26:21.740 it's obvious to

00:26:22.700 the public that

00:26:23.920 you have both a

00:26:24.700 president and a

00:26:26.160 vice president who

00:26:27.900 can't communicate

00:26:28.820 for different

00:26:30.000 reasons.

00:26:31.720 But we're

00:26:32.900 actually going to

00:26:33.420 have that same

00:26:34.180 pair who we

00:26:35.700 know can't do

00:26:36.540 basic communication.

00:26:38.640 The most

00:26:39.180 fundamental part

00:26:40.080 of the job is

00:26:41.500 to show up in

00:26:42.220 public and say

00:26:44.020 smarter things to

00:26:44.880 make us feel

00:26:45.360 good.

00:26:46.540 You know, it's

00:26:47.500 at least half of

00:26:48.240 the job.

00:26:49.400 And there are

00:26:50.520 two candidates who

00:26:51.240 can't do that

00:26:51.940 thing, which is

00:26:53.580 talk to the

00:26:54.140 public and make

00:26:56.040 us feel good.

00:26:57.600 Not at all.

00:26:59.500 Now, how did we

00:27:00.280 get used to this?

00:27:02.160 We're actually going

00:27:03.200 to enter an

00:27:03.960 election phase

00:27:04.900 where we actually

00:27:07.300 have somebody who

00:27:08.100 is clearly mentally 0.61

00:27:09.400 incompetent who

00:27:11.480 is running with

00:27:12.160 somebody who can't

00:27:13.320 form a sentence in

00:27:14.260 public.

00:27:15.480 And those are not

00:27:16.600 exaggerations, are

00:27:18.940 they?

00:27:19.840 Is that an

00:27:20.520 exaggeration to say

00:27:21.560 Kamala can't form 1.00

00:27:22.500 sentences in public?

00:27:24.120 Not really.

00:27:25.600 That's pretty

00:27:26.400 straight just

00:27:28.720 describing what's

00:27:29.660 happening.

00:27:30.900 Can Biden give

00:27:32.680 an inspirational

00:27:34.360 speech and handle

00:27:36.000 questions and do

00:27:37.460 a good...

00:27:37.700 No, he can't.

00:27:38.720 And nobody thinks

00:27:39.500 he can.

00:27:40.560 There's nobody who

00:27:41.320 thinks he can.

00:27:42.800 So how in the

00:27:43.840 world did you get

00:27:44.660 two candidates, the

00:27:46.100 number one and the

00:27:46.880 number two, who 0.69

00:27:48.140 can't do the most

00:27:48.940 basic human activity

00:27:51.400 of having a

00:27:52.460 conversation that

00:27:55.000 makes sense?

00:27:56.240 To actually make

00:27:57.620 sense.

00:27:58.880 They can't do it.

00:28:00.320 Now, you could say

00:28:01.300 all kinds of bad

00:28:02.660 things about Trump.

00:28:04.540 Some of them I

00:28:05.280 might say, well, you

00:28:06.020 get a point there.

00:28:07.880 But does anybody

00:28:08.860 ever say he can't

00:28:10.140 talk?

00:28:11.820 He can talk?

00:28:13.680 He's really, really

00:28:14.580 good at it.

00:28:15.640 And the contrast

00:28:17.200 here is insane.

00:28:20.620 Because Biden and

00:28:22.080 Kamala Harris, I

00:28:23.040 think you would

00:28:23.700 agree that unless

00:28:25.300 you throw Dan

00:28:26.120 Quayle into the

00:28:26.980 equation, that they

00:28:28.860 would set the record

00:28:30.140 as the two least

00:28:31.300 capable public

00:28:32.580 communicators.

00:28:33.920 Is that fair?

00:28:35.240 The two least

00:28:36.480 capable public

00:28:38.860 communicators who

00:28:39.800 are in those jobs.

00:28:41.460 I've never seen

00:28:42.360 anything like it.

00:28:43.720 Now, I've said, and

00:28:45.840 other experts have

00:28:46.900 agreed, that Trump

00:28:48.520 might be the best

00:28:49.440 we've ever seen.

00:28:51.200 Now, his opinions

00:28:52.460 are a problem for

00:28:53.960 many people in the

00:28:55.540 country.

00:28:55.800 But his ability to

00:28:57.320 communicate isn't

00:28:59.480 just average.

00:29:01.800 Trump is not

00:29:02.720 average.

00:29:04.420 He might be the

00:29:06.680 best president

00:29:07.760 communicator we've

00:29:08.820 ever had.

00:29:10.000 You just don't like

00:29:10.800 what he's saying in

00:29:11.440 some cases, right?

00:29:12.680 Now, Vivek is not

00:29:13.720 yet a president.

00:29:15.320 But Vivek is off

00:29:16.600 the charts.

00:29:17.140 His communication

00:29:17.780 skills are just

00:29:18.640 crazy good.

00:29:20.040 So, I mean, I feel

00:29:21.100 good about that.

00:29:21.740 So, we do have

00:29:23.140 people who can do

00:29:23.760 the job.

00:29:24.920 It's just, we may

00:29:26.600 not pick them.

00:29:28.260 Yeah, Reagan was 0.97

00:29:29.580 insane, but I think

00:29:30.920 Trump might even be

00:29:32.780 better.

00:29:34.360 Yeah.

00:29:34.960 Reagan was great.

00:29:36.660 There's no doubt

00:29:37.220 about it.

00:29:38.340 But Trump, yeah,

00:29:39.640 of course, I'm

00:29:40.520 judging Trump also

00:29:41.440 by his tweets.

00:29:43.820 You know, Reagan

00:29:44.320 didn't have Twitter.

00:29:45.880 So, I don't feel

00:29:47.800 like Reagan's Twitter

00:29:49.200 game would have

00:29:49.860 matched Trump's.

00:29:51.740 Because Trump

00:29:52.140 is actually so

00:29:52.900 well, let's say

00:29:54.700 he's a perfect fit

00:29:55.740 for the times.

00:29:56.980 You know, we're

00:29:58.420 in crude times.

00:30:00.620 So, crude Trump

00:30:01.860 fits crude Twitter

00:30:03.160 just perfectly.

00:30:05.020 So, anyway.

00:30:07.140 But the fact that

00:30:08.180 we're looking at

00:30:09.800 one of the, you

00:30:10.680 could say at least

00:30:11.220 one of the best

00:30:11.860 communicators of

00:30:13.200 our time against

00:30:14.620 the two unambiguously

00:30:15.900 worst.

00:30:17.520 And it's still

00:30:18.000 going to be a

00:30:18.380 close election.

00:30:20.200 It's still going

00:30:20.740 to be close.

00:30:21.740 So, that's

00:30:24.020 pretty absurd.

00:30:26.340 Speaking of

00:30:27.360 absurdity,

00:30:29.480 I saw a tweet

00:30:30.340 by Miriam Grossman.

00:30:31.940 She's a doctor,

00:30:33.240 MD.

00:30:34.440 And she says,

00:30:35.100 I woke up today

00:30:35.960 to learn that

00:30:36.520 the CDC

00:30:37.220 endorses using

00:30:38.920 powerful drugs

00:30:39.880 to induce

00:30:40.580 nipple discharges 0.93

00:30:42.260 in men

00:30:42.800 who then claim

00:30:44.240 they can breastfeed.

00:30:46.100 P.S.

00:30:46.500 Some of the drugs

00:30:47.480 are then consumed

00:30:48.340 by the infant.

00:30:49.980 Yes,

00:30:50.500 the CDC,

00:30:51.580 our tax dollars.

00:30:55.700 Well,

00:30:56.260 let me give you

00:30:56.820 some advice.

00:30:58.300 This will be

00:30:58.780 for the babies.

00:30:59.400 if you're a baby

00:31:01.540 and you're

00:31:02.960 raised on

00:31:03.820 male nipple 0.90

00:31:06.040 milk

00:31:06.380 and

00:31:08.360 someday

00:31:09.360 you have a

00:31:10.320 conversation

00:31:10.820 with your

00:31:11.380 mom,

00:31:12.760 because there's

00:31:13.140 probably two

00:31:14.060 parents involved

00:31:14.820 here,

00:31:16.200 and you say

00:31:16.820 to your mom,

00:31:17.560 hey mom,

00:31:18.180 was I breastfed

00:31:19.180 as a child,

00:31:20.300 as a baby?

00:31:20.860 If your mom

00:31:22.840 says to you,

00:31:24.680 technically yes,

00:31:26.920 stop asking

00:31:28.320 questions.

00:31:29.820 Stop.

00:31:31.220 Just stop.

00:31:33.300 Just let

00:31:34.600 yourself out

00:31:35.260 slowly like this.

00:31:38.240 Just sort of

00:31:38.900 fade into the

00:31:39.460 background.

00:31:43.700 Like that.

00:31:45.280 That's how

00:31:46.060 they handle

00:31:46.360 that situation.

00:31:48.280 Here's what

00:31:49.120 you don't want

00:31:49.640 to do.

00:31:50.860 This would be

00:31:51.700 the big mistake.

00:31:53.220 Was I

00:31:53.700 breastfed,

00:31:54.400 mom?

00:31:56.040 Technically yes.

00:31:59.080 Don't do

00:31:59.760 this.

00:32:02.020 What do you

00:32:02.520 mean by

00:32:02.860 technically?

00:32:04.540 Don't do

00:32:05.220 that.

00:32:06.460 Don't do

00:32:06.720 it.

00:32:06.880 Just walk

00:32:07.900 away.

00:32:09.700 And if

00:32:10.320 you do

00:32:10.660 find out

00:32:11.280 that you

00:32:12.200 were fed

00:32:12.660 by your

00:32:13.460 nipple

00:32:15.220 milk

00:32:15.660 from

00:32:17.560 a male,

00:32:18.920 here's

00:32:21.620 here's my

00:32:21.760 next

00:32:22.020 advice.

00:32:23.460 Don't

00:32:23.860 mention it

00:32:24.360 to your

00:32:24.620 classmates.

00:32:26.140 If you're

00:32:26.660 in high

00:32:26.940 school,

00:32:27.720 don't

00:32:28.060 mention it.

00:32:29.360 Do not

00:32:29.860 mention it

00:32:30.300 to your

00:32:30.540 classmates.

00:32:31.140 No.

00:32:31.700 You'll

00:32:32.080 think that

00:32:32.600 you're just

00:32:32.960 sharing.

00:32:34.140 You'll

00:32:34.420 think you're

00:32:34.820 sharing your

00:32:35.300 feelings and

00:32:35.820 maybe just

00:32:36.200 sharing some

00:32:36.660 of them.

00:32:37.080 Don't.

00:32:37.780 Do not.

00:32:38.820 Do not

00:32:39.440 mention it to

00:32:40.000 your

00:32:42.940 co-workers

00:32:43.640 or your

00:32:46.140 future

00:32:46.460 spouse

00:32:47.040 or anyone

00:32:50.340 ever.

00:32:52.200 Ever.

00:32:53.220 No.

00:32:55.240 However,

00:32:56.080 the good

00:32:56.660 news is

00:32:57.240 that Ben

00:32:57.640 and Jerry's

00:32:58.180 has a new

00:32:58.580 flavor.

00:32:59.400 It's called

00:33:00.140 male nipple 0.90

00:33:01.080 milk.

00:33:02.320 And Ben

00:33:02.760 and Jerry

00:33:03.100 are making

00:33:03.540 it themselves.

00:33:05.020 So they're

00:33:05.440 going to be

00:33:05.720 making a

00:33:06.500 special

00:33:06.980 batch.

00:33:08.080 They've

00:33:08.760 just got

00:33:09.100 to take

00:33:10.220 their nipple 0.92

00:33:10.860 making drugs

00:33:11.720 and they'll

00:33:12.620 start filling

00:33:13.460 those containers.

00:33:16.280 Ben and Jerry's

00:33:17.260 nipple milk.

00:33:19.300 All right.

00:33:20.440 Let's talk

00:33:21.160 about that

00:33:21.560 cocaine found

00:33:22.500 in the White

00:33:22.920 House.

00:33:24.180 The big

00:33:24.860 story today

00:33:25.580 is that

00:33:26.180 some people

00:33:27.400 are speculating

00:33:28.680 that the

00:33:30.340 administration

00:33:30.820 is trying

00:33:31.380 to throw

00:33:31.740 Kamala Harris

00:33:32.380 under the

00:33:32.840 bus,

00:33:34.060 which you

00:33:34.960 would love

00:33:35.340 by the way,

00:33:36.400 if it's a

00:33:37.260 yellow school

00:33:37.880 bus,

00:33:39.280 she'd love

00:33:40.100 it.

00:33:40.840 She'd love

00:33:41.340 it.

00:33:41.880 If you

00:33:42.260 could throw

00:33:42.640 Kamala Harris

00:33:43.240 under a

00:33:43.620 bus,

00:33:43.940 don't pick

00:33:44.380 like a

00:33:44.740 municipal

00:33:45.180 bus.

00:33:46.700 She doesn't

00:33:47.140 have much

00:33:47.460 to say

00:33:47.740 about that.

00:33:48.340 But a

00:33:48.600 yellow school

00:33:49.120 bus,

00:33:49.820 oh God,

00:33:50.600 she loves

00:33:51.000 those.

00:33:52.020 Whoa.

00:33:52.700 So if you

00:33:53.220 throw her 1.00

00:33:53.600 under a

00:33:53.940 yellow school

00:33:54.440 bus,

00:33:54.700 she'd be

00:33:54.980 happy.

00:33:56.120 She could

00:33:56.500 plug in

00:33:57.940 her Wi-Fi.

00:33:58.820 I mean,

00:33:59.040 she'd have

00:33:59.340 everything there.

00:34:00.600 But charge

00:34:02.160 her phone.

00:34:04.720 But I

00:34:06.400 forget what

00:34:06.860 I was talking

00:34:07.280 about.

00:34:07.880 I just

00:34:08.460 got all

00:34:08.820 excited about

00:34:09.920 the yellow

00:34:10.280 school bus.

00:34:10.940 I can

00:34:11.140 see how

00:34:11.520 it gets

00:34:11.960 people

00:34:12.240 going.

00:34:14.660 I do

00:34:15.280 not

00:34:15.520 believe the

00:34:17.520 hypothesis.

00:34:19.440 The idea

00:34:21.040 that the

00:34:21.700 administration is

00:34:22.920 throwing her 1.00

00:34:23.400 under the

00:34:23.720 bus,

00:34:24.600 no,

00:34:25.020 that would

00:34:25.420 not be

00:34:25.740 their best

00:34:26.080 play.

00:34:27.080 They could

00:34:27.620 get rid of her 1.00

00:34:28.160 other ways.

00:34:29.020 You don't

00:34:29.360 want to admit

00:34:29.920 that you

00:34:30.240 picked a

00:34:30.880 cocaine user

00:34:32.240 for your

00:34:32.600 vice president.

00:34:33.840 That wouldn't

00:34:34.400 be the

00:34:34.740 good way

00:34:35.220 to do

00:34:35.540 it.

00:34:35.760 If they

00:34:37.200 need to

00:34:37.560 get rid

00:34:37.920 of her,

00:34:38.940 maybe that'll

00:34:40.020 happen.

00:34:41.340 But they're

00:34:42.220 not going to

00:34:42.580 do it that

00:34:43.040 way.

00:34:43.360 They're not

00:34:43.620 going to

00:34:43.820 plant drugs

00:34:44.460 on her.

00:34:46.980 I mean,

00:34:47.660 really?

00:34:48.860 Do any of you

00:34:49.680 really believe

00:34:50.300 that they would

00:34:50.780 plant drugs

00:34:51.640 on their own

00:34:52.280 vice president?

00:34:54.380 Does anybody

00:34:54.860 really believe

00:34:55.560 that?

00:34:55.800 Some do.

00:34:59.940 Some do.

00:35:00.620 Well, one way

00:35:01.280 it could be

00:35:01.680 possible is

00:35:02.840 that somebody

00:35:03.380 who was a

00:35:03.820 dirty trickster

00:35:04.560 did it for

00:35:06.620 the purpose

00:35:07.160 of removing

00:35:07.800 her, but 0.94

00:35:08.960 maybe it

00:35:10.100 would not

00:35:10.720 have been a

00:35:11.220 sanctioned

00:35:12.140 operation or

00:35:12.860 something.

00:35:13.680 Maybe.

00:35:14.760 But if you're

00:35:15.780 telling me that

00:35:16.440 Biden approved

00:35:18.080 an operation

00:35:18.760 to plant

00:35:19.980 cocaine on

00:35:20.700 his vice

00:35:21.060 president,

00:35:22.320 how many

00:35:22.640 think that?

00:35:23.420 How many

00:35:23.780 think that Joe

00:35:24.620 Biden approved

00:35:25.780 an operation

00:35:26.940 to plant

00:35:28.260 drugs on

00:35:28.840 his own

00:35:29.140 vice president?

00:35:31.120 No.

00:35:32.040 No.

00:35:32.920 No, he

00:35:33.500 didn't do

00:35:33.840 that.

00:35:34.980 No.

00:35:35.860 No, no.

00:35:38.020 Somebody

00:35:38.540 believes it.

00:35:40.040 Yeah.

00:35:40.520 But how many

00:35:41.020 would believe

00:35:41.620 that the

00:35:42.580 deep state

00:35:43.180 would do

00:35:43.540 it?

00:35:44.760 Well, that's

00:35:46.000 different.

00:35:47.100 The deep

00:35:47.640 state might

00:35:48.180 do it.

00:35:49.100 I just

00:35:49.480 don't think

00:35:49.820 it would be

00:35:50.160 the best

00:35:50.640 way to

00:35:51.040 accomplish

00:35:51.460 their goal.

00:35:52.460 It might

00:35:52.820 be the

00:35:53.080 worst way.

00:35:54.360 So it

00:35:55.020 seems very

00:35:55.540 unlikely to

00:35:56.200 me.

00:35:56.560 So I

00:35:57.000 dismiss

00:35:57.440 that

00:35:57.760 possibility

00:35:58.320 as super

00:36:00.060 unlikely.

00:36:01.920 But what

00:36:04.000 else is

00:36:04.320 new?

00:36:04.640 Let's see.

00:36:05.680 We're seeing

00:36:06.420 more reporting

00:36:07.140 even from

00:36:07.940 CNN that

00:36:09.540 cameras are

00:36:10.580 everywhere.

00:36:12.700 So how

00:36:14.900 is it that

00:36:15.400 we have not

00:36:15.980 heard whether

00:36:18.540 or not for

00:36:19.280 sure there

00:36:19.820 are cameras

00:36:20.300 there?

00:36:22.100 Isn't that

00:36:22.720 weird?

00:36:23.040 weird that

00:36:23.940 we're

00:36:24.520 somehow

00:36:24.800 okay with

00:36:25.480 that?

00:36:26.600 What's

00:36:27.060 wrong with

00:36:27.420 the news?

00:36:27.940 The news

00:36:28.300 is completely

00:36:28.860 broken.

00:36:30.180 At the

00:36:30.800 very least

00:36:31.540 there should

00:36:32.040 be a

00:36:32.340 confirmation

00:36:32.740 that there

00:36:33.800 was always

00:36:34.540 video

00:36:35.820 surveillance.

00:36:37.500 Right?

00:36:38.640 How is it

00:36:39.460 that by now

00:36:40.160 we don't

00:36:40.720 know the

00:36:41.060 answer to

00:36:41.520 the question

00:36:41.980 does the

00:36:43.000 videotape

00:36:43.680 show who

00:36:44.120 put it

00:36:44.420 there?

00:36:45.620 Isn't

00:36:45.920 that a

00:36:46.200 pretty

00:36:46.440 basic

00:36:46.820 question?

00:36:48.820 Pretty

00:36:49.260 basic.

00:36:49.660 We don't

00:36:50.180 know that.

00:36:52.400 It's funny.

00:36:54.120 I saw a

00:36:55.280 gentleman on

00:36:56.620 Fox News,

00:36:57.640 Fox and

00:36:58.020 Friends I

00:36:58.580 think, but

00:36:59.440 I wish I

00:37:00.840 had caught

00:37:01.160 his name

00:37:01.700 because he

00:37:02.540 made a

00:37:02.820 good point.

00:37:04.180 But if

00:37:04.460 you saw it

00:37:05.360 because you

00:37:05.600 mentioned the

00:37:06.120 name I'll

00:37:06.500 give him

00:37:06.820 credit for

00:37:07.380 it.

00:37:08.300 It was

00:37:08.540 the, oh

00:37:10.120 I think

00:37:10.320 it was

00:37:10.460 outnumbered.

00:37:11.400 No, it

00:37:11.640 was on

00:37:11.860 outnumbered.

00:37:13.240 So outnumbered

00:37:13.960 they have a

00:37:14.580 bunch of

00:37:14.880 women, they 1.00

00:37:15.400 have one

00:37:15.800 man there

00:37:16.280 who was

00:37:16.520 the outnumbered

00:37:17.120 one.

00:37:17.960 Who was it

00:37:18.400 this morning?

00:37:19.660 It was

00:37:20.100 such a

00:37:20.380 good point

00:37:20.740 I want

00:37:21.000 to give

00:37:21.200 him

00:37:21.320 credit

00:37:21.560 for it.

00:37:23.540 All right.

00:37:24.360 Well, maybe

00:37:25.280 you'll come

00:37:25.580 up with a

00:37:25.960 name because

00:37:26.300 I know

00:37:26.560 some of

00:37:26.900 you watched

00:37:27.280 it.

00:37:28.080 But anyway,

00:37:28.600 his point

00:37:28.980 was that

00:37:29.940 if they

00:37:33.140 had determined

00:37:33.760 that it

00:37:34.140 was anthrax,

00:37:35.820 do you

00:37:36.440 think you

00:37:36.780 wouldn't

00:37:36.960 know who

00:37:37.280 it was?

00:37:39.360 It's such

00:37:39.980 a good

00:37:40.240 point.

00:37:41.940 Right?

00:37:43.180 If the

00:37:43.860 powder had

00:37:44.600 been anthrax 0.53

00:37:45.640 and thus

00:37:47.100 it looked

00:37:47.440 like an

00:37:48.300 attack on

00:37:48.860 the

00:37:49.000 president,

00:37:49.660 do you

00:37:50.580 think we

00:37:50.960 wouldn't

00:37:51.240 know who

00:37:51.560 put it

00:37:51.820 there?

00:37:54.620 I mean

00:37:55.340 seriously.

00:37:56.880 Seriously.

00:37:57.760 We wouldn't

00:37:58.520 know who

00:37:58.940 put that

00:37:59.320 there if

00:37:59.840 it had

00:38:00.040 been a

00:38:00.340 poison.

00:38:02.000 Of course

00:38:02.740 we would.

00:38:04.100 So of

00:38:04.740 course they

00:38:05.240 know who

00:38:05.600 put it

00:38:05.860 there.

00:38:06.100 Of course

00:38:06.920 they know

00:38:07.320 by now.

00:38:08.920 Why aren't

00:38:09.360 they telling

00:38:09.720 us?

00:38:10.020 us.

00:38:12.660 Now do

00:38:13.280 you think

00:38:13.680 that your

00:38:14.300 White House

00:38:15.480 administration

00:38:16.140 would be

00:38:17.160 so corrupt

00:38:18.060 that they

00:38:19.580 could know

00:38:20.020 who put

00:38:20.400 it there

00:38:20.700 and they

00:38:20.940 wouldn't

00:38:21.120 tell you?

00:38:22.940 And you'd

00:38:23.600 never know.

00:38:25.780 Yes they

00:38:26.300 are.

00:38:26.940 Yes they

00:38:27.320 are.

00:38:28.640 That is

00:38:29.400 correct.

00:38:30.260 They are

00:38:30.940 corrupt enough

00:38:31.580 to do that

00:38:32.020 right in

00:38:32.400 front of

00:38:32.620 you.

00:38:33.700 Absolutely.

00:38:34.140 All right.

00:38:38.860 So of

00:38:39.600 course the

00:38:40.060 Democrats

00:38:40.480 need a

00:38:40.980 summer story

00:38:41.700 to counteract

00:38:43.660 I'll talk

00:38:44.120 about this

00:38:44.560 new

00:38:44.900 whistleblower

00:38:45.560 about the

00:38:49.660 Bidens.

00:38:50.960 But in

00:38:51.960 order to

00:38:52.380 cover up

00:38:52.820 the negative

00:38:53.640 stories of

00:38:54.340 the cocaine

00:38:54.740 in the

00:38:54.960 White House

00:38:55.360 and the

00:38:55.780 new

00:38:56.180 whistleblower

00:38:56.740 you'd be

00:38:58.660 surprised to

00:38:59.340 find out

00:38:59.720 there's more

00:39:00.140 about the

00:39:00.520 boxes.

00:39:01.580 Yeah the

00:39:02.120 Mar-a-Lago

00:39:02.740 boxes.

00:39:04.140 Are now a

00:39:05.040 big story

00:39:05.500 today.

00:39:06.480 Why?

00:39:07.700 Because these

00:39:08.600 other stories

00:39:09.260 are getting

00:39:09.660 too much

00:39:10.060 attention so

00:39:10.820 they need to

00:39:11.420 throw in

00:39:12.580 some box

00:39:13.380 judo.

00:39:15.500 Box gate

00:39:16.460 judo.

00:39:18.140 And today

00:39:18.900 Joe Biden

00:39:20.700 became a

00:39:22.720 mass murderer

00:39:23.460 but what

00:39:24.780 about those

00:39:25.400 boxes?

00:39:26.720 Yeah.

00:39:27.480 Yeah sure.

00:39:28.660 Joe Biden

00:39:29.320 is possibly

00:39:30.440 approving

00:39:31.240 cluster

00:39:33.440 munitions

00:39:34.120 for Ukraine

00:39:34.960 which would

00:39:36.160 be outlawed

00:39:37.240 in every

00:39:37.660 other country

00:39:38.520 because they're

00:39:39.180 too dangerous

00:39:39.740 to civilians

00:39:40.400 but it looks

00:39:40.880 like we're

00:39:41.240 going to

00:39:41.480 do it.

00:39:42.940 No

00:39:43.460 problem.

00:39:45.800 All right.

00:39:48.380 But those

00:39:49.200 boxes.

00:39:50.080 Whoa.

00:39:51.000 That's a real

00:39:51.660 problem.

00:39:52.040 It's not the

00:39:52.460 cluster munitions

00:39:53.360 and the

00:39:53.880 possible nuclear

00:39:54.780 war.

00:39:55.540 It's the

00:39:56.280 boxes.

00:39:56.720 But the

00:39:58.340 news story is

00:39:59.120 that this

00:39:59.520 poor assistant

00:40:00.900 to Trump

00:40:01.880 who went

00:40:02.360 with him

00:40:02.800 after the

00:40:03.920 administration

00:40:04.500 Walt

00:40:05.560 Notter.

00:40:06.940 Well it

00:40:07.500 turns out

00:40:07.900 that Walt

00:40:08.320 Notter

00:40:08.980 allegedly

00:40:10.800 was a

00:40:11.920 Notter boy.

00:40:13.120 He was a

00:40:13.480 Notter boy.

00:40:15.520 That's right.

00:40:16.760 The naughty

00:40:17.300 one is called

00:40:17.820 Notter.

00:40:19.580 And

00:40:19.920 because it's a

00:40:21.260 simulation so all

00:40:22.200 the names are

00:40:22.680 just jokes.

00:40:23.220 and he's

00:40:25.640 alleged to

00:40:26.300 have taken

00:40:27.660 50 boxes

00:40:28.800 somewhere

00:40:29.300 and then

00:40:30.800 allegedly he

00:40:32.100 took fewer

00:40:32.780 boxes back

00:40:34.480 which would

00:40:35.420 suggest that

00:40:36.120 somebody kept

00:40:36.860 a bunch of

00:40:37.360 boxes which

00:40:38.740 was not

00:40:39.380 supposed to

00:40:39.860 happen.

00:40:41.580 But here's

00:40:42.560 what CNN

00:40:43.360 reports.

00:40:44.660 That there's

00:40:45.340 either, I

00:40:46.280 don't know if

00:40:46.580 it was on

00:40:46.860 tape or some

00:40:48.540 eyewitness

00:40:49.060 quote, but

00:40:50.420 Trump is

00:40:51.000 alleged to

00:40:51.540 have said

00:40:52.020 what happens

00:40:54.860 if we just

00:40:55.500 don't respond

00:40:56.220 at all about

00:40:56.980 the boxes

00:40:57.560 and don't

00:40:58.860 play ball

00:40:59.300 with them?

00:41:00.040 Trump allegedly

00:41:00.840 said, quote,

00:41:02.340 wouldn't it be

00:41:03.080 better if we

00:41:03.780 just told them

00:41:04.400 we don't have

00:41:05.040 anything here?

00:41:08.900 Now how

00:41:09.760 often has

00:41:10.480 Trump

00:41:10.900 gotten in

00:41:12.400 trouble for

00:41:13.680 a what if?

00:41:15.900 It's what he

00:41:16.720 does on every

00:41:17.440 topic, which

00:41:18.880 I like.

00:41:20.040 I like that

00:41:20.860 he asks

00:41:21.560 what if

00:41:22.180 about not

00:41:23.480 just the

00:41:23.880 things that

00:41:24.280 everybody knows

00:41:25.040 are practical,

00:41:26.740 but he always

00:41:27.660 asks what if

00:41:28.380 about the

00:41:28.860 things that

00:41:29.240 are edgy

00:41:29.720 and that

00:41:30.520 nobody's

00:41:30.920 talking about

00:41:31.540 and maybe

00:41:31.960 would be

00:41:32.320 dangerous.

00:41:34.100 It's not a

00:41:35.020 problem to

00:41:35.580 ask what if.

00:41:37.340 That's not

00:41:37.880 illegal.

00:41:40.040 So if in

00:41:41.200 the context

00:41:42.060 of a legal

00:41:42.840 conversation,

00:41:43.720 let's say

00:41:44.240 there was an

00:41:44.700 attorney there

00:41:45.420 or he was

00:41:46.340 just talking

00:41:47.380 to advisors,

00:41:48.300 if he said

00:41:48.900 what if we

00:41:49.500 do this,

00:41:50.400 the context

00:41:51.620 of that

00:41:52.080 what if

00:41:52.680 is that he

00:41:54.020 thinks he

00:41:54.580 owns the

00:41:55.060 documents.

00:41:56.820 The what if

00:41:57.880 is certainly

00:41:59.240 not disconnected

00:42:00.360 from the fact

00:42:01.220 that he thought

00:42:01.860 he owned

00:42:02.220 them.

00:42:03.240 So if you

00:42:04.060 think you

00:42:04.540 own them,

00:42:05.820 what if we

00:42:06.440 don't give

00:42:06.820 them back

00:42:07.240 is a perfectly

00:42:08.080 ordinary

00:42:09.000 question.

00:42:10.220 There's nothing

00:42:11.040 even provocative

00:42:12.040 about that.

00:42:13.340 I think I

00:42:14.200 own these,

00:42:14.700 what if I

00:42:15.040 don't give

00:42:15.380 them back?

00:42:15.880 Like what's

00:42:16.640 the penalty?

00:42:17.640 What happens?

00:42:18.980 Isn't that

00:42:19.440 just like an

00:42:20.520 obvious correct

00:42:21.480 question to

00:42:22.080 ask?

00:42:23.260 If you

00:42:23.940 believe they

00:42:24.400 were yours.

00:42:25.320 Now if you

00:42:26.040 believe they

00:42:26.420 were not

00:42:26.840 yours, if

00:42:28.280 you knew

00:42:28.620 they weren't

00:42:29.040 yours or you

00:42:29.820 couldn't make

00:42:30.260 an argument

00:42:30.660 that they

00:42:31.040 were yours,

00:42:32.260 then talking

00:42:33.260 about how to

00:42:33.840 not give

00:42:34.220 them back

00:42:34.680 would be

00:42:35.040 evidence of

00:42:35.800 a mental

00:42:37.500 state that

00:42:38.260 is criminal.

00:42:40.700 But CNN

00:42:41.280 leaves out the

00:42:42.020 context that he

00:42:43.500 probably thought

00:42:44.300 he owned

00:42:44.660 them.

00:42:45.880 Or at

00:42:48.560 least that he

00:42:48.980 thought it

00:42:49.220 was a gray

00:42:49.660 area that he

00:42:50.340 could win,

00:42:51.060 which would

00:42:51.460 be about as

00:42:52.220 good.

00:42:54.000 So I

00:42:55.880 think it's

00:42:56.620 the usual

00:42:56.980 framing to

00:42:57.800 make it look

00:42:58.300 like it's

00:42:58.640 more of a

00:42:59.060 big deal

00:42:59.420 than it is.

00:43:00.000 I feel

00:43:00.380 sorry for

00:43:00.860 this Walt

00:43:01.660 Norder guy

00:43:02.340 because he

00:43:03.300 may be

00:43:04.400 caught up

00:43:05.060 in let's

00:43:06.320 say a

00:43:06.700 process crime

00:43:07.900 around a

00:43:09.160 crime that

00:43:09.560 he didn't

00:43:10.320 commit.

00:43:12.280 So I

00:43:13.100 hate that.

00:43:13.740 And if

00:43:16.020 he did

00:43:16.280 get, you

00:43:17.580 know, if

00:43:18.840 he did

00:43:19.160 get, let's

00:43:20.420 say, convicted

00:43:21.020 for a

00:43:21.660 lying, probably

00:43:22.800 it would be

00:43:23.300 because he

00:43:23.780 was trying to

00:43:24.280 protect his

00:43:24.860 boss.

00:43:27.160 And I

00:43:28.900 would hope

00:43:29.260 that that

00:43:29.660 boss would

00:43:30.080 get elected

00:43:30.480 and then

00:43:30.940 pardon him,

00:43:32.260 which is

00:43:32.980 possible.

00:43:34.040 Trump could

00:43:34.520 get elected

00:43:35.000 and then just

00:43:35.620 pardon an

00:43:36.560 oughta.

00:43:37.360 But as

00:43:38.140 others have

00:43:38.680 pointed out,

00:43:39.580 being a Trump

00:43:40.240 supporter or

00:43:40.980 working for

00:43:41.500 Trump is

00:43:42.000 basically a

00:43:42.960 suicide pact.

00:43:45.700 Has anybody

00:43:46.520 done well

00:43:47.200 after supporting

00:43:48.880 Trump or

00:43:49.420 working with

00:43:49.920 him?

00:43:51.340 I mean, it

00:43:51.860 certainly was

00:43:52.460 bad for my

00:43:53.120 career.

00:43:54.740 My career got

00:43:55.620 totally tanked

00:43:56.440 just by saying

00:43:57.200 he might win.

00:43:58.780 So everybody,

00:43:59.880 pretty much

00:44:00.340 everybody who's

00:44:00.860 had an

00:44:01.140 association with

00:44:02.040 him has

00:44:02.340 said, oh

00:44:02.960 yeah, that's

00:44:03.720 true.

00:44:04.660 Sarah Sanders

00:44:05.340 did great.

00:44:05.940 She's a

00:44:06.280 governor now.

00:44:08.360 Okay, well,

00:44:09.180 we do have some

00:44:10.280 examples of

00:44:10.960 people who

00:44:11.300 did great.

00:44:12.400 All right.

00:44:14.260 Let's talk

00:44:14.880 about this

00:44:15.260 new whistleblower.

00:44:16.380 You heard

00:44:16.720 that in

00:44:18.040 the issue

00:44:18.560 of Hunter

00:44:19.860 Biden maybe

00:44:20.760 taking bribes

00:44:21.840 from other

00:44:22.320 countries,

00:44:22.860 allegedly,

00:44:23.820 that there

00:44:24.540 was a

00:44:24.900 whistleblower

00:44:25.380 that was

00:44:25.700 missing.

00:44:27.560 And everybody

00:44:28.340 said,

00:44:28.940 missing?

00:44:30.760 How did

00:44:31.400 the whistleblower

00:44:32.540 become missing?

00:44:34.060 Well, now

00:44:34.620 we know,

00:44:36.020 according to

00:44:36.620 the whistleblower.

00:44:38.000 Now, all

00:44:39.160 this is

00:44:39.580 alleged,

00:44:40.180 right?

00:44:41.280 But if

00:44:42.000 you see

00:44:42.280 the video,

00:44:43.160 a video

00:44:43.960 surfaced from

00:44:44.800 the whistleblower.

00:44:45.540 His name is,

00:44:46.320 he's an

00:44:46.640 Israeli

00:44:47.020 professor,

00:44:47.980 Dr. Gal

00:44:49.460 Loft.

00:44:51.420 And I'll

00:44:54.540 give you

00:44:55.020 my take.

00:44:56.420 You know

00:44:57.100 how you can

00:44:57.720 tell some

00:44:58.160 people are

00:44:58.580 lying when

00:44:59.160 they talk?

00:44:59.940 You know,

00:45:00.140 when Adam

00:45:00.600 Schiff

00:45:00.840 talks,

00:45:01.320 it's just

00:45:01.680 obvious he's

00:45:02.320 lying.

00:45:03.080 When

00:45:03.440 Swalwell

00:45:03.920 talks,

00:45:04.460 it's obvious

00:45:05.000 he's lying.

00:45:06.000 You could

00:45:06.400 pick some

00:45:07.140 Republicans

00:45:08.220 that it's

00:45:08.900 obvious when

00:45:09.440 they're lying,

00:45:10.020 right?

00:45:10.240 It's not

00:45:10.580 just one

00:45:10.980 side.

00:45:11.560 There's

00:45:11.780 some people

00:45:12.140 who are

00:45:12.320 really obvious

00:45:12.920 when they're

00:45:13.300 lying.

00:45:15.720 This guy

00:45:16.400 doesn't look

00:45:16.880 like he's

00:45:17.240 lying.

00:45:18.920 Now,

00:45:19.440 I'm no

00:45:19.900 mind reader,

00:45:22.040 so I can't

00:45:22.940 know for

00:45:23.340 sure.

00:45:24.520 But I'll

00:45:25.080 tell you,

00:45:25.600 this whistleblower

00:45:26.460 sounds really

00:45:28.740 credible.

00:45:30.520 Apparently,

00:45:31.100 he has a

00:45:31.740 history and

00:45:32.600 a domain

00:45:34.240 of credible

00:45:35.660 work with

00:45:36.260 credible

00:45:36.620 people for

00:45:37.420 decades.

00:45:38.800 So he's

00:45:39.480 not a

00:45:39.880 nut.

00:45:41.220 He's not

00:45:41.680 a nut.

00:45:42.920 Nobody

00:45:43.320 thinks he

00:45:43.860 is.

00:45:45.080 And this

00:45:45.900 is the

00:45:46.200 really scary

00:45:46.780 part.

00:45:47.740 He doesn't

00:45:48.440 even seem

00:45:48.940 to be a

00:45:49.360 partisan.

00:45:51.320 He doesn't

00:45:51.860 even associate

00:45:52.440 with the

00:45:52.900 political

00:45:53.200 party.

00:45:55.040 His story

00:45:55.980 is that

00:45:56.680 even before

00:45:57.460 the laptop,

00:45:58.320 and this

00:45:58.580 is very

00:45:58.900 important,

00:45:59.540 the timing

00:45:59.940 of it,

00:46:00.820 before the

00:46:01.640 laptop,

00:46:02.780 he had

00:46:03.640 already

00:46:04.000 reported to

00:46:04.700 the government

00:46:05.200 and said,

00:46:06.140 I'm seeing

00:46:06.800 these briberies 1.00

00:46:07.760 happening,

00:46:08.720 because I

00:46:09.260 guess he

00:46:09.560 worked as

00:46:10.460 an advisor

00:46:10.960 for a

00:46:11.340 Chinese company

00:46:11.980 that was

00:46:12.380 bribing,

00:46:13.000 allegedly,

00:46:14.040 bribing

00:46:14.420 Hunter and

00:46:15.920 Joe Biden.

00:46:17.120 So he

00:46:17.620 saw it

00:46:17.920 firsthand,

00:46:18.700 CFC,

00:46:20.060 some Chinese

00:46:21.020 company,

00:46:21.820 and they're

00:46:22.520 attached to

00:46:23.120 Chinese

00:46:23.540 intelligence,

00:46:24.360 etc.

00:46:25.320 Now,

00:46:25.920 he reported

00:46:26.420 to the

00:46:26.720 government

00:46:27.100 that he

00:46:28.100 saw that

00:46:29.200 Biden's

00:46:29.760 taking

00:46:30.420 bribes,

00:46:31.460 effectively,

00:46:32.220 or at

00:46:33.040 the very

00:46:33.380 least,

00:46:33.800 it would

00:46:33.980 be a

00:46:34.520 far

00:46:34.920 violation,

00:46:36.480 you know,

00:46:36.620 it would

00:46:36.740 be working

00:46:37.200 for a

00:46:37.580 foreign

00:46:37.800 government

00:46:38.220 without

00:46:38.560 registering.

00:46:40.200 So,

00:46:40.840 lo and

00:46:41.360 behold,

00:46:42.120 what do

00:46:42.460 you think

00:46:42.800 happened

00:46:43.240 to the

00:46:44.060 whistleblower

00:46:44.720 who had

00:46:45.780 firsthand,

00:46:47.280 credible

00:46:47.680 information

00:46:48.400 that the

00:46:49.460 Bidens

00:46:49.860 were on

00:46:50.380 the take?

00:46:52.260 Well,

00:46:52.900 if you

00:46:53.340 said he

00:46:53.780 got charged

00:46:54.440 for the

00:46:54.840 very crime

00:46:55.720 that they

00:46:56.840 were committing,

00:46:58.460 you would

00:46:58.900 be right.

00:46:59.420 they charged

00:47:02.420 him with

00:47:02.740 the crime

00:47:03.260 he said

00:47:03.680 Biden

00:47:04.000 committed.

00:47:05.200 They charged

00:47:05.980 him with

00:47:06.500 a far

00:47:06.940 violation

00:47:07.720 when he

00:47:09.260 had

00:47:09.500 apparently

00:47:10.020 nothing to

00:47:10.760 do even

00:47:11.200 in that

00:47:11.560 domain.

00:47:12.800 They charged

00:47:13.760 him as

00:47:14.080 an arms

00:47:14.640 dealer.

00:47:15.740 Apparently,

00:47:16.100 he's never

00:47:16.480 even been

00:47:16.900 involved in

00:47:17.500 that business.

00:47:20.800 So, and

00:47:21.360 then there

00:47:22.420 was something

00:47:22.880 about the,

00:47:24.020 one of the

00:47:25.280 investigators that

00:47:26.180 came after

00:47:26.620 him was the

00:47:28.380 same one

00:47:28.840 who was

00:47:29.220 involved

00:47:29.600 with the

00:47:30.320 hunter's

00:47:30.780 laptop.

00:47:32.260 So the

00:47:32.720 same cast

00:47:33.440 of characters

00:47:34.040 who apparently

00:47:34.880 are trying to

00:47:35.540 silence the

00:47:36.260 whistleblower

00:47:36.800 and trying

00:47:37.760 really hard,

00:47:38.780 as in a

00:47:39.880 lot of

00:47:40.220 illegal shit, 0.93

00:47:41.460 if the

00:47:41.840 whistleblower

00:47:42.340 is correct,

00:47:44.180 that the

00:47:46.040 same cast

00:47:46.660 of characters

00:47:47.160 were involved

00:47:47.800 in covering

00:47:48.280 up the

00:47:48.740 rest of

00:47:49.080 the stuff.

00:47:50.480 So, he

00:47:52.020 looked really

00:47:52.580 credible to

00:47:53.200 me, and

00:47:55.240 he's in

00:47:55.560 hiding.

00:47:56.420 And he's in

00:47:57.240 hiding because

00:47:57.880 he believes

00:47:58.420 the American

00:47:59.560 government is

00:48:02.340 a criminal

00:48:02.820 organization

00:48:03.520 out to get

00:48:04.040 him.

00:48:05.120 And he is

00:48:05.920 a credible

00:48:06.360 person.

00:48:08.000 He's not

00:48:08.540 some wing

00:48:09.700 job.

00:48:10.960 He's actually

00:48:11.620 credible.

00:48:13.480 And it's

00:48:15.400 right there.

00:48:16.640 He's got the

00:48:17.360 goods, he's

00:48:18.140 got the

00:48:18.540 details, and

00:48:19.460 he had it

00:48:19.860 before the

00:48:20.520 laptop.

00:48:21.740 Before the

00:48:22.600 laptop.

00:48:23.900 So the

00:48:24.400 government has

00:48:25.040 known about

00:48:25.500 these accusations

00:48:26.340 from before

00:48:27.220 the laptop,

00:48:27.940 and you

00:48:28.140 never heard

00:48:28.580 about it,

00:48:28.980 did you?

00:48:29.820 Never heard

00:48:30.380 about it.

00:48:31.120 No, they 1.00

00:48:31.580 decided to

00:48:32.180 punish the

00:48:32.680 whistleblower and

00:48:33.780 put him in

00:48:34.180 jail.

00:48:35.000 So future

00:48:35.640 whistleblowers 1.00

00:48:36.340 will know not

00:48:36.940 to do anything

00:48:37.520 like this.

00:48:40.560 Now, let me

00:48:42.300 say, just so I've

00:48:43.100 covered all

00:48:43.520 bases, if

00:48:44.800 tomorrow it

00:48:45.460 turns out he's

00:48:46.140 a nut, don't

00:48:49.760 tell me I

00:48:50.260 didn't see it

00:48:50.740 coming.

00:48:50.960 totally

00:48:53.800 possible.

00:48:55.120 It's totally

00:48:56.140 possible, yeah,

00:48:57.080 it's totally

00:48:57.540 possible he's a

00:48:58.580 kraken.

00:49:01.320 But, I

00:49:02.660 will tell you

00:49:03.160 he doesn't

00:49:03.660 look like a

00:49:04.720 nut.

00:49:05.740 So if he's

00:49:06.740 a nut, he's

00:49:08.180 really good at

00:49:09.200 it.

00:49:10.680 Now, contrast

00:49:12.360 this to the

00:49:13.380 UFO whistleblower.

00:49:16.200 When I

00:49:16.720 listened to the

00:49:17.280 UFO whistleblower,

00:49:18.400 none of that

00:49:18.920 sounded true to

00:49:19.620 me, none of

00:49:21.240 it sounded

00:49:21.560 true coming

00:49:22.100 out of his

00:49:22.460 mouth.

00:49:23.780 And sure

00:49:24.300 enough, no

00:49:25.780 photographs of

00:49:26.740 those UFOs

00:49:27.840 yet.

00:49:28.980 But when

00:49:29.660 this guy

00:49:30.060 talked, it

00:49:31.340 just sounded

00:49:31.820 real.

00:49:33.500 And I

00:49:34.120 would say at

00:49:34.680 this point, I

00:49:35.300 feel confident

00:49:36.100 that we do

00:49:36.940 know that our

00:49:37.660 president was

00:49:39.340 on the take.

00:49:41.320 I feel

00:49:41.980 confident that

00:49:42.680 that's just

00:49:43.080 true.

00:49:44.020 Now, I

00:49:44.400 could change

00:49:45.740 my mind if

00:49:46.940 there was some

00:49:47.420 big investigation

00:49:48.480 and found out

00:49:49.440 this was

00:49:50.400 misleading

00:49:50.980 information.

00:49:51.660 I could

00:49:51.880 change my

00:49:52.340 mind.

00:49:53.300 I'm not so

00:49:54.040 invested in

00:49:56.100 this being

00:49:56.520 true that I

00:49:58.080 couldn't say,

00:49:58.640 whoa, I got

00:49:59.060 that one

00:49:59.380 wrong.

00:50:01.260 By the way, I

00:50:02.100 don't know if

00:50:02.340 you noticed that

00:50:03.080 I'm doing this

00:50:03.560 intentionally.

00:50:05.000 One of the

00:50:05.620 ways you

00:50:05.960 protect yourself

00:50:06.860 from cognitive

00:50:07.920 dissonance and

00:50:09.420 confirmation bias

00:50:10.360 too is you

00:50:11.560 tell people at

00:50:12.220 the same time

00:50:12.760 you give your

00:50:13.240 opinion that you

00:50:13.920 could be wrong.

00:50:15.520 Because that

00:50:16.100 gives you

00:50:16.440 something to rely

00:50:17.280 on later, if

00:50:18.040 you find out

00:50:18.960 you're wrong,

00:50:20.000 you don't have

00:50:20.640 to hallucinate

00:50:22.300 why you were

00:50:22.840 really right all

00:50:23.640 along and how

00:50:24.760 the truth isn't

00:50:26.300 the truth.

00:50:27.120 That's what

00:50:27.540 cognitive dissonance

00:50:28.380 is.

00:50:28.800 I don't have

00:50:29.320 to.

00:50:30.320 I'll just say,

00:50:31.100 remember I told

00:50:31.680 you I could be

00:50:32.140 wrong about that.

00:50:32.920 Well, I guess I

00:50:33.460 was wrong.

00:50:34.900 So it's a really

00:50:35.540 good mental

00:50:36.400 hygiene.

00:50:38.620 It's a good way 1.00

00:50:39.200 to protect

00:50:39.780 yourself from

00:50:41.160 your own

00:50:41.620 cognitive dissonance.

00:50:43.020 You just say

00:50:43.620 at the same time,

00:50:44.880 totally possible

00:50:45.900 I'm 100% wrong.

00:50:47.600 As long as

00:50:48.340 you've said

00:50:48.700 that, you

00:50:49.320 have an escape

00:50:50.040 from cognitive

00:50:51.320 dissonance.

00:50:51.940 You just go to

00:50:52.420 that.

00:50:52.920 Yeah, I said

00:50:53.380 it could be

00:50:53.700 wrong.

00:50:55.080 Surprised, but

00:50:55.800 I said it

00:50:56.340 could be.

00:50:58.620 It lessens the

00:50:59.560 power of your

00:51:00.180 predictions.

00:51:01.240 That's okay.

00:51:03.360 Why would I

00:51:04.080 care about that?

00:51:05.820 It lessens the

00:51:06.880 persuasion of my

00:51:07.920 predictions, but

00:51:08.580 not the power

00:51:09.560 of them.

00:51:11.600 It only makes

00:51:12.540 you maybe less

00:51:14.000 likely to believe

00:51:15.180 something that

00:51:15.740 you shouldn't

00:51:16.220 100% believe,

00:51:17.680 which is

00:51:18.140 exactly where

00:51:18.760 I want you.

00:51:19.480 I don't want

00:51:20.060 you 100%

00:51:20.780 believing anything

00:51:21.360 I say.

00:51:22.520 I'm just

00:51:22.940 telling you

00:51:23.600 what things

00:51:24.680 look like.

00:51:26.200 We'll all be

00:51:27.000 surprised.

00:51:28.200 All right,

00:51:28.420 part of this

00:51:28.820 story from the

00:51:29.380 whistleblower is

00:51:30.160 that the Bidens

00:51:31.260 had a close

00:51:32.000 association with

00:51:33.620 a one-eyed

00:51:34.620 FBI informant

00:51:38.280 who was giving

00:51:40.460 them good stuff

00:51:41.260 to give to

00:51:42.460 the Chinese,

00:51:43.380 I guess.

00:51:43.820 apparently FBI

00:51:48.480 director Louis

00:51:49.360 Free had one

00:51:50.960 eye, still

00:51:51.720 does, still

00:51:52.500 has one eye.

00:51:53.740 So he was the

00:51:54.760 former FBI

00:51:55.560 director maybe at

00:51:56.620 that time, but

00:51:57.440 he still would

00:51:57.940 have had

00:51:58.260 connections.

00:52:02.500 Now, just to

00:52:03.900 be clear, he's

00:52:06.660 probably not the

00:52:07.320 only person with

00:52:08.160 one eye in the

00:52:08.880 FBI or that

00:52:10.720 ever works for

00:52:11.380 the FBI, right?

00:52:13.460 So don't assume

00:52:14.660 that he did

00:52:15.240 anything.

00:52:16.620 I did hear, I

00:52:17.820 did, I'll just

00:52:18.460 tell you I heard

00:52:19.040 this morning from

00:52:20.400 somebody who

00:52:20.960 knows the free

00:52:22.040 family and who

00:52:25.700 is not, who is

00:52:27.140 not anti-Republican,

00:52:28.800 right?

00:52:29.140 Somebody who would

00:52:30.000 be friendly to the

00:52:30.960 Republican side, I'll

00:52:31.920 just say that, who

00:52:32.840 knows the family and

00:52:34.480 says no way.

00:52:35.280 It would be just a

00:52:38.460 shocker if that

00:52:40.580 specific family was

00:52:41.920 doing something like

00:52:42.860 that.

00:52:43.940 Now, that's just one

00:52:44.620 opinion, but it's

00:52:46.380 somebody who had a

00:52:48.120 contact with the

00:52:48.860 family, who just

00:52:49.720 said, that doesn't

00:52:51.680 feel right.

00:52:53.940 But, you know,

00:52:55.340 anything's possible,

00:52:56.220 right?

00:52:57.460 We can be surprised

00:52:58.740 by anybody.

00:53:00.040 I would tell you

00:53:01.160 that if you're sure

00:53:02.420 that it's Louis

00:53:03.160 Free that's being

00:53:04.080 referred to, I

00:53:04.900 wouldn't be that

00:53:05.440 sure.

00:53:06.700 I wouldn't be that

00:53:07.380 sure.

00:53:08.020 But, there is

00:53:09.420 evidence that I

00:53:10.680 think the Free

00:53:11.800 family and the

00:53:12.640 Biden family has

00:53:14.600 some long-standing

00:53:15.520 connections.

00:53:17.120 That doesn't mean

00:53:18.180 that's the one-eyed

00:53:19.860 source, but they do

00:53:22.500 have a long-standing

00:53:23.440 connection with a

00:53:24.360 one-eyed FBI head,

00:53:26.640 which would be a

00:53:28.620 weird coincidence if

00:53:30.400 it's a coincidence.

00:53:31.740 But it could be.

00:53:32.760 It could be a

00:53:33.540 coincidence.

00:53:34.080 It wouldn't be the

00:53:34.900 biggest one.

00:53:36.260 You know, as

00:53:36.640 coincidences go, it

00:53:38.500 would just be sort

00:53:39.120 of an ordinary

00:53:39.860 one.

00:53:40.580 It wouldn't be like

00:53:41.600 a spectacular one

00:53:42.840 because there's got

00:53:43.720 to be more than

00:53:44.240 one person with

00:53:44.900 one eye.

00:53:47.040 All right.

00:53:49.540 Well, there you

00:53:51.100 go.

00:53:52.680 And I guess Louis

00:53:54.500 Free also did work

00:53:57.340 closely with Hunter

00:53:58.360 Biden in Romania.

00:54:01.460 In Romania.

00:54:02.420 That doesn't sound

00:54:04.620 too sketchy at all,

00:54:05.580 does it?

00:54:06.900 That Hunter and

00:54:07.680 Louis Free were

00:54:08.380 collaborating in

00:54:09.700 Romania.

00:54:10.240 I don't know over

00:54:10.840 what.

00:54:11.680 And that Free

00:54:12.780 contributed $100,000 to

00:54:14.420 an education trust fund

00:54:15.740 established for Joe

00:54:16.760 Biden's grandchildren.

00:54:17.940 What?

00:54:20.560 Because that's what

00:54:21.440 friends do?

00:54:23.600 That's what friends do.

00:54:24.840 Yeah.

00:54:27.000 Yeah.

00:54:27.360 You know, I can't

00:54:28.140 tell you how many

00:54:28.920 people I know who

00:54:30.980 have started college

00:54:32.760 education trust funds

00:54:34.780 for other people.

00:54:36.860 Other people's

00:54:37.740 children.

00:54:38.860 Oh, it happens all

00:54:39.780 the time.

00:54:40.960 It's happened to you,

00:54:41.700 right?

00:54:42.400 Haven't you had your

00:54:43.180 family friends start

00:54:45.040 $100,000 education

00:54:46.660 funds for you even

00:54:47.720 though you had plenty

00:54:48.440 of money?

00:54:49.340 Yeah.

00:54:50.080 Yeah.

00:54:50.320 Even though you

00:54:50.940 didn't have any

00:54:51.560 money problems,

00:54:53.020 people will often

00:54:54.080 come up to you and

00:54:54.760 say, I know you

00:54:55.340 have no money

00:54:55.900 problems.

00:54:56.680 You're actually

00:54:57.260 quite well off.

00:54:59.020 But if you

00:55:00.320 wouldn't mind,

00:55:01.300 I'd like to give

00:55:02.100 $100,000 to your

00:55:03.360 grandchildren.

00:55:04.740 Why?

00:55:06.100 Oh, don't ask.

00:55:08.100 Don't ask.

00:55:09.540 Now, remember,

00:55:11.680 every part of this

00:55:12.600 story is early

00:55:14.420 fog of war.

00:55:16.100 I don't know if

00:55:17.060 he really did that.

00:55:18.620 If he really did

00:55:19.660 that, well, that

00:55:20.760 certainly raises

00:55:22.000 some questions.

00:55:23.420 But maybe he

00:55:24.740 didn't, right?

00:55:26.240 It's a little too

00:55:26.880 early to say that

00:55:27.700 that, yeah, that's

00:55:28.840 pretty on the nose.

00:55:29.960 It's a little too

00:55:30.580 early to say that

00:55:31.520 any of this really

00:55:32.580 happened.

00:55:33.620 Maybe he did.

00:55:34.640 We'll find out.

00:55:35.600 Just don't assume

00:55:36.400 any of it's true yet.

00:55:38.180 All right.

00:55:39.600 I would like to give

00:55:40.640 another shout-out

00:55:41.720 to Cenk, whose

00:55:44.260 last name I apologize

00:55:45.480 for always saying

00:55:46.260 wrong, but I think

00:55:47.260 Weeger.

00:55:48.760 Cenk Weeger,

00:55:49.440 from the Young

00:55:50.820 Turks. 0.82

00:55:52.280 Apparently, he

00:55:53.040 agreed with the

00:55:53.880 Supreme Court

00:55:54.600 both on denying

00:55:57.200 student loan

00:55:58.940 forgiveness and

00:56:00.440 also for overturning

00:56:01.780 affirmative action.

00:56:04.500 So what's amazing

00:56:05.800 about the story is

00:56:06.660 Cenk is very

00:56:08.720 identified as a,

00:56:10.640 let's say,

00:56:11.520 a pretty extreme

00:56:12.740 anti-Trump,

00:56:14.540 pro-Democrat

00:56:15.500 voice.

00:56:16.020 But this is now

00:56:18.240 the, is this the

00:56:19.320 third time he's

00:56:21.480 going against

00:56:22.360 Democrats, you

00:56:23.280 know, a really

00:56:23.900 basic Democrat

00:56:25.400 attack line?

00:56:27.400 It's like the

00:56:28.160 third time in a

00:56:29.120 few months.

00:56:29.940 Now, each of the

00:56:30.540 times he's done

00:56:31.220 it, he's showed

00:56:33.360 his reasons, and

00:56:34.720 his reasons were

00:56:35.420 common sense.

00:56:37.000 They were just

00:56:37.580 common sense.

00:56:38.320 They weren't even

00:56:38.760 political.

00:56:39.140 And he seems

00:56:42.160 to be, he

00:56:45.240 seems to be

00:56:45.860 engaging in what

00:56:46.620 I call extreme

00:56:48.540 normalness.

00:56:52.140 So Cenk is

00:56:53.540 actually making

00:56:54.260 news by being

00:56:55.880 extremely normal.

00:56:59.160 In other words,

00:57:00.500 he simply looked

00:57:01.540 at the issues and

00:57:03.100 he decided on

00:57:04.080 them based on

00:57:04.760 their merits.

00:57:05.460 and it

00:57:07.660 looks so weird

00:57:08.320 that he's

00:57:08.740 trending.

00:57:09.700 He's trending

00:57:10.520 because he

00:57:11.080 looked at some

00:57:11.580 big issues on

00:57:13.120 their merits,

00:57:14.020 which in this

00:57:16.080 case did not

00:57:16.820 go toward the

00:57:17.580 Democrat side of

00:57:18.920 the narrative.

00:57:20.600 And he's

00:57:21.200 getting torched.

00:57:22.460 He's getting

00:57:23.160 torched by his

00:57:23.920 own team for

00:57:26.200 simply making a

00:57:27.900 decision based on

00:57:28.620 the merits of

00:57:29.320 the topic.

00:57:30.620 So, I would

00:57:36.160 like to just

00:57:36.640 give him a

00:57:38.200 sitting ovation

00:57:39.860 for being an

00:57:43.300 independent thinker.

00:57:45.020 I want to be

00:57:45.780 very clear, I

00:57:46.580 don't agree with

00:57:47.240 him on all of

00:57:48.080 his views.

00:57:49.060 Nothing like

00:57:49.600 that.

00:57:50.340 And nor do I

00:57:51.120 require that of

00:57:52.440 anybody that I

00:57:53.160 would respect.

00:57:54.380 But my respect

00:57:55.580 for him is off

00:57:57.180 the chart right

00:57:57.840 now.

00:57:58.540 Just off the

00:57:59.100 chart.

00:57:59.300 So, because

00:58:02.860 you know that

00:58:03.420 cost him money,

00:58:04.460 right?

00:58:05.120 You know that

00:58:06.720 Cenk is taking

00:58:07.640 a financial hit.

00:58:09.400 He paid a lot

00:58:10.460 of money,

00:58:11.260 potentially, a

00:58:12.720 lot of money

00:58:13.280 to try to tell

00:58:15.500 you what he

00:58:15.840 really thought.

00:58:17.780 Which also makes

00:58:18.840 me think that when

00:58:19.580 he disagrees with

00:58:20.460 me, he's not

00:58:21.500 just taking a

00:58:22.200 party line.

00:58:23.680 It means he

00:58:24.500 actually disagrees.

00:58:25.880 Because I've

00:58:26.440 seen now three

00:58:27.220 examples where

00:58:28.280 he's willing to

00:58:29.080 agree with

00:58:29.620 me, as long

00:58:30.760 as the facts

00:58:31.940 suggest that

00:58:33.000 make sense.

00:58:34.720 So I would

00:58:35.540 say that Cenk's 0.98

00:58:36.460 credibility right

00:58:38.560 now is just

00:58:39.200 through the roof.

00:58:40.680 You know, best

00:58:41.620 in the business

00:58:42.240 right now.

00:58:44.940 Didn't expect to

00:58:46.100 hear that from

00:58:46.560 me, did you?

00:58:47.780 But when I say

00:58:48.700 credibility, I

00:58:49.640 don't mean he'll

00:58:50.080 be right on

00:58:50.820 everything.

00:58:51.920 I mean that when

00:58:52.660 he tells you

00:58:53.140 something, you

00:58:54.140 can actually

00:58:54.900 believe that

00:58:55.720 that's his

00:58:56.140 actual opinion.

00:58:57.860 And I do

00:58:58.540 not believe

00:58:59.060 that when I

00:58:59.940 listen to the

00:59:00.540 news or the

00:59:01.280 pundits or

00:59:02.540 most of the

00:59:03.060 people on social

00:59:03.680 media.

00:59:04.180 I don't even

00:59:04.620 believe it's

00:59:05.060 their real

00:59:05.540 opinion.

00:59:06.240 It just looks

00:59:06.800 like a team

00:59:07.400 opinion.

00:59:08.660 But from now

00:59:09.640 on, probably

00:59:10.620 until the end

00:59:11.200 of time, when I

00:59:12.720 hear Cenk give

00:59:13.620 an opinion, even

00:59:14.520 if I hate it,

00:59:16.200 I'll think that's

00:59:16.860 his real opinion.

00:59:18.080 But I'll also

00:59:18.860 take it more

00:59:19.400 seriously.

00:59:19.820 because I

00:59:21.600 know that he

00:59:22.100 can look at

00:59:22.740 the actual

00:59:24.180 pros and

00:59:25.300 cons of

00:59:25.760 stuff and

00:59:26.760 make a

00:59:27.220 reasoned

00:59:27.780 decision that

00:59:28.420 disagrees with

00:59:29.140 his team.

00:59:30.440 He's a very

00:59:31.360 rare character

00:59:32.480 now.

00:59:33.100 And he did

00:59:33.500 that for

00:59:33.980 himself.

00:59:35.240 He did it

00:59:35.980 honestly.

00:59:37.080 And I have

00:59:37.800 immense respect

00:59:38.620 for it.

00:59:39.240 It's just so

00:59:40.100 valuable that you

00:59:41.620 can trust one

00:59:42.800 person.

00:59:43.900 So if there's

00:59:44.240 one person you

00:59:44.920 can trust, it's

00:59:46.240 his actual

00:59:46.920 opinion.

00:59:48.020 Good for you.

00:59:49.820 All right.

00:59:50.720 We'll fight

00:59:51.140 later over

00:59:51.880 something else,

00:59:52.580 I'm sure.

00:59:54.180 All right.

00:59:57.000 What else?

00:59:59.100 Funny tweet

01:00:00.920 from Noam

01:00:01.720 Bloom, who

01:00:03.680 showed the

01:00:04.360 article headlines

01:00:06.240 in a little

01:00:07.040 paste up.

01:00:09.100 And one of

01:00:09.480 the headlines

01:00:09.940 was about

01:00:10.720 Latinos are 0.99

01:00:12.140 becoming the

01:00:12.640 new face of

01:00:13.360 white supremacy.

01:00:14.940 Another one

01:00:15.580 that the Asians 0.65

01:00:16.300 are the new

01:00:17.140 helpers of

01:00:18.460 white supremacy.

01:00:19.100 and the

01:00:20.200 other one

01:00:20.520 that says

01:00:20.880 you don't

01:00:21.160 have to be

01:00:21.700 white to

01:00:22.060 be a white 0.79

01:00:22.420 supremacist,

01:00:23.220 suggesting that

01:00:23.960 black people

01:00:24.480 are sometimes

01:00:25.000 white supremacists

01:00:25.900 too.

01:00:26.960 So Noam

01:00:27.700 Bloom tweeted

01:00:28.700 those headlines

01:00:30.600 and then his

01:00:31.700 comment was,

01:00:33.020 white supremacy

01:00:33.880 is more

01:00:34.380 diverse than

01:00:35.020 Harvard.

01:00:39.880 White supremacy

01:00:41.040 is more

01:00:42.120 diverse than

01:00:42.760 Harvard.

01:00:43.120 And maybe

01:00:45.620 not technically

01:00:46.420 correct.

01:00:46.960 pretty damn

01:00:49.260 good.

01:00:50.180 Pretty damn

01:00:50.740 good.

01:00:51.520 So Noam,

01:00:52.500 good job.

01:00:54.820 All right.

01:00:56.760 I mentioned

01:00:57.740 before that

01:00:58.640 Glenn Greenwald

01:00:59.740 is calling this

01:01:00.460 out, that

01:01:01.360 Biden looks

01:01:02.260 like he's

01:01:02.760 prepared to

01:01:03.500 send cluster

01:01:04.300 munitions to

01:01:05.200 Ukraine,

01:01:06.000 which have

01:01:08.040 been banned

01:01:08.540 by even our

01:01:09.160 allies.

01:01:09.880 Even our

01:01:10.340 allies won't

01:01:11.020 use it in

01:01:11.480 war because

01:01:12.200 it's too

01:01:12.680 dangerous for

01:01:13.320 civilians.

01:01:13.780 And Biden's

01:01:15.680 like, yeah,

01:01:16.340 probably.

01:01:17.440 Yeah, we'll

01:01:17.860 send you some

01:01:18.360 of those over

01:01:18.800 there.

01:01:20.320 Cluster bombs.

01:01:23.240 Wow.

01:01:24.940 So that

01:01:25.680 might be

01:01:26.020 happening.

01:01:29.280 At this

01:01:30.020 point, is

01:01:30.700 there anybody

01:01:31.200 who believes

01:01:31.960 that Ukraine 0.91

01:01:33.220 is going to

01:01:33.860 break through

01:01:34.480 and get all

01:01:35.620 their territory

01:01:36.580 back?

01:01:37.860 Does anybody

01:01:38.280 think that's

01:01:38.780 going to

01:01:38.940 happen?

01:01:40.120 No.

01:01:41.320 Nope.

01:01:41.600 Does anybody

01:01:42.160 think Russia

01:01:43.040 is going to

01:01:43.560 break through

01:01:44.080 the Ukrainian

01:01:44.660 lines and

01:01:45.320 take Kiev?

01:01:47.640 Nope.

01:01:48.540 Nope.

01:01:49.220 Does anybody

01:01:49.940 think that

01:01:50.860 anybody who

01:01:51.620 dies from

01:01:52.640 this day

01:01:53.800 forward in

01:01:54.520 Ukraine was 0.87

01:01:56.260 a good use

01:01:58.020 of people?

01:01:59.460 Do you

01:01:59.700 think the

01:02:00.000 people dying

01:02:00.640 today on

01:02:01.400 either the

01:02:01.860 Russian or

01:02:02.340 Ukraine side

01:02:03.140 are dying

01:02:04.120 for anything?

01:02:05.600 For

01:02:05.800 anything?

01:02:07.200 Nope.

01:02:08.100 Not for

01:02:08.480 anything.

01:02:09.820 Nope.

01:02:10.240 Every death

01:02:10.760 now has no

01:02:11.500 purpose

01:02:11.900 whatsoever.

01:02:13.260 Not

01:02:13.620 Ukrainian,

01:02:14.440 not Russian.

01:02:15.360 Now, they

01:02:15.660 can't stop

01:02:16.320 because I

01:02:16.760 guess if

01:02:17.380 one side

01:02:17.800 stopped,

01:02:18.280 that'd be

01:02:18.500 a problem.

01:02:19.680 But you

01:02:21.900 need a

01:02:22.320 Trump to

01:02:23.300 say the

01:02:23.680 war is

01:02:24.040 over.

01:02:26.400 You need

01:02:27.200 a Trump

01:02:27.700 to say the

01:02:28.480 war is

01:02:28.840 over.

01:02:29.640 But I

01:02:30.320 worry that

01:02:31.300 ending the

01:02:32.260 war was 0.89

01:02:32.840 never the

01:02:33.380 intention of

01:02:34.080 the

01:02:34.220 administration.

01:02:35.900 Does it

01:02:36.540 seem that

01:02:37.020 we have the

01:02:38.060 American

01:02:38.420 administration?

01:02:39.320 Do you

01:02:39.560 think Biden

01:02:40.040 wants to

01:02:40.420 end this

01:02:40.800 war?

01:02:41.920 There's no

01:02:42.560 evidence of

01:02:43.140 that, is

01:02:43.480 there?

01:02:43.960 There's no

01:02:44.500 evidence they're

01:02:45.080 trying to

01:02:45.480 win the

01:02:45.780 war.

01:02:46.580 All of the

01:02:47.280 evidence is

01:02:47.860 they're using

01:02:48.320 it as a

01:02:49.080 way to

01:02:49.640 drain resources

01:02:51.320 out of

01:02:51.760 Russia and

01:02:54.180 basically turn

01:02:56.540 them into a

01:02:57.140 third world

01:02:57.760 country.

01:03:00.840 And it

01:03:01.420 looks like it

01:03:01.880 might be

01:03:02.180 working.

01:03:03.840 Right?

01:03:04.500 You know,

01:03:05.440 I've said this

01:03:06.100 before that

01:03:06.720 there's a whole

01:03:07.860 bunch of

01:03:08.240 things that

01:03:08.640 will be

01:03:09.000 near

01:03:09.480 breaking

01:03:09.900 points.

01:03:10.880 But if

01:03:11.460 they don't

01:03:11.760 break, you'll

01:03:13.380 never know

01:03:13.780 they were

01:03:14.060 ever near

01:03:14.460 the breaking

01:03:14.900 point.

01:03:15.860 Because it's

01:03:16.460 not like

01:03:16.800 anything's

01:03:17.200 bending.

01:03:18.580 So I

01:03:20.020 think that

01:03:20.420 Russia itself,

01:03:21.640 as well as

01:03:22.480 the war,

01:03:23.240 probably are

01:03:23.920 really close to

01:03:25.020 some breaking

01:03:25.600 points in

01:03:26.980 like a variety

01:03:27.960 of ways.

01:03:29.180 So I heard

01:03:29.740 somebody say

01:03:30.320 that, I

01:03:31.220 have no idea

01:03:31.920 if this is

01:03:32.420 true, just an

01:03:33.160 example, that

01:03:34.340 Russia's funds

01:03:36.360 are running

01:03:36.820 out, what

01:03:38.040 is it, their

01:03:38.460 sovereign funds

01:03:39.320 or something,

01:03:40.380 so that at

01:03:41.240 some point they

01:03:42.060 just won't have

01:03:42.640 the money to

01:03:43.400 pursue the

01:03:44.020 war.

01:03:44.680 They'll just

01:03:45.020 run out of

01:03:45.480 money.

01:03:47.640 I don't know,

01:03:48.320 is that true?

01:03:49.900 I don't know.

01:03:52.260 Others say

01:03:53.100 that the

01:03:53.780 technical

01:03:55.740 sanctions will

01:03:57.660 basically make

01:03:58.460 all their

01:03:59.860 industry crumble

01:04:00.700 because if they

01:04:01.700 can't get

01:04:02.060 replacement parts,

01:04:03.320 nothing works.

01:04:04.280 so they'll

01:04:05.920 just, you

01:04:06.380 know, have

01:04:07.260 trouble there.

01:04:09.940 But then

01:04:10.600 again, there's

01:04:11.100 the war itself.

01:04:12.820 You know,

01:04:13.020 maybe you

01:04:15.220 could easily

01:04:15.760 imagine mass

01:04:17.920 defections from

01:04:19.160 the Russian

01:04:20.040 army.

01:04:21.500 It hasn't

01:04:21.980 happened yet,

01:04:22.840 but you

01:04:23.740 could easily

01:04:24.120 imagine it,

01:04:24.880 and you

01:04:25.180 could imagine

01:04:25.620 that you're

01:04:26.000 really close

01:04:26.580 to it,

01:04:27.660 and it

01:04:28.340 doesn't

01:04:28.620 happen.

01:04:29.820 But it

01:04:30.460 could be

01:04:30.760 really close.

01:04:32.600 It could be

01:04:32.960 really close.

01:04:33.700 So their

01:04:34.060 whole bunch

01:04:34.500 of things

01:04:34.820 that could 0.68

01:04:35.100 just turn

01:04:35.720 over like

01:04:36.200 a domino

01:04:36.760 any minute.

01:04:37.740 So it's

01:04:38.200 a completely

01:04:38.620 unpredictable

01:04:39.300 situation.

01:04:40.420 But the

01:04:40.720 one thing

01:04:41.180 that a

01:04:42.020 President

01:04:42.380 Trump

01:04:42.720 could do

01:04:43.200 if he

01:04:44.260 didn't

01:04:44.520 want to

01:04:44.840 destroy

01:04:45.260 Russia

01:04:45.720 for

01:04:46.560 whatever

01:04:47.120 long-term

01:04:47.840 strategic

01:04:48.460 reasons,

01:04:49.640 he could

01:04:50.260 just say,

01:04:50.980 you're not

01:04:51.780 winning.

01:04:52.800 Nobody's

01:04:53.280 winning.

01:04:53.800 You're

01:04:53.980 wasting

01:04:54.260 lives.

01:04:54.860 Stop

01:04:55.180 today.

01:04:56.040 We'll

01:04:56.360 work this

01:04:56.780 out.

01:04:57.500 I think

01:04:58.160 he could

01:04:58.420 actually do

01:04:58.900 that and

01:04:59.340 pull it

01:04:59.640 off.

01:04:59.860 I saw

01:05:03.340 somebody

01:05:03.720 else do

01:05:04.240 a

01:05:04.560 comparison

01:05:05.800 of where

01:05:07.360 we are

01:05:07.740 in 2023

01:05:08.480 in terms

01:05:09.140 of wars

01:05:09.800 compared

01:05:10.780 to

01:05:11.420 prior

01:05:13.360 times.

01:05:14.560 Apparently

01:05:15.080 there are

01:05:15.520 fewer wars

01:05:16.400 going on

01:05:16.920 right now

01:05:17.420 than

01:05:17.780 historically

01:05:19.100 has been

01:05:19.480 the case.

01:05:20.300 Did you

01:05:20.580 know that?

01:05:22.180 You know,

01:05:22.920 Ukraine

01:05:23.240 obviously is

01:05:23.840 a big one,

01:05:24.800 so you have

01:05:25.560 to include

01:05:26.400 the size

01:05:27.140 of the

01:05:27.380 war,

01:05:27.700 that

01:05:27.840 matters.

01:05:28.720 But in

01:05:29.120 terms of

01:05:29.440 the number

01:05:29.940 of wars,

01:05:30.980 apparently

01:05:31.380 we're at

01:05:31.820 something like

01:05:32.380 a low.

01:05:34.740 How about

01:05:35.320 that?

01:05:36.180 You know,

01:05:36.480 I think

01:05:36.700 most of

01:05:37.020 those wars

01:05:37.520 were,

01:05:37.900 you know,

01:05:38.140 like African 0.99

01:05:39.900 civil wars

01:05:40.860 and stuff

01:05:41.380 like that.

01:05:42.180 But for

01:05:42.780 whatever reason,

01:05:43.600 we're at

01:05:43.960 an all-time

01:05:44.620 low of wars.

01:05:46.500 So if we

01:05:47.340 get rid of

01:05:47.700 this one,

01:05:48.060 we'd be

01:05:48.320 in a much

01:05:48.960 better shape.

01:05:52.680 No,

01:05:53.180 not because

01:05:53.620 there are

01:05:53.860 fewer countries,

01:05:54.580 because I'm

01:05:54.880 just comparing

01:05:55.400 to,

01:05:55.600 say,

01:05:55.820 20,

01:05:56.260 30 years

01:05:56.720 ago,

01:05:57.380 in roughly

01:05:58.320 the same

01:05:58.720 amount of

01:05:59.080 countries.

01:06:03.180 All right.

01:06:04.200 Did I miss

01:06:04.620 any stories

01:06:05.140 today?

01:06:09.560 You think

01:06:10.240 Wagner

01:06:10.740 knocked out

01:06:11.340 the African

01:06:11.800 freedom fighters?

01:06:12.720 That could 0.68

01:06:13.040 be,

01:06:13.440 at least

01:06:13.800 in some

01:06:14.140 places.

01:06:18.540 Well,

01:06:19.020 I don't

01:06:19.220 know if

01:06:19.440 the French

01:06:19.820 are having

01:06:20.100 a civil

01:06:20.540 war.

01:06:22.400 Oh,

01:06:22.780 I remembered

01:06:23.300 who it

01:06:23.980 was.

01:06:25.600 I think

01:06:27.420 it was

01:06:27.680 Nassim 0.59

01:06:28.480 Taleb

01:06:29.040 who wrote

01:06:30.980 that when

01:06:32.060 Islam gets 1.00

01:06:32.780 a 10%

01:06:34.060 traction

01:06:36.920 in your

01:06:37.440 country,

01:06:38.080 that you

01:06:39.020 can predict

01:06:39.580 it will

01:06:39.820 take over.

01:06:41.700 Now,

01:06:42.040 I don't know

01:06:42.340 if it was

01:06:42.580 10%.

01:06:43.200 Maybe you

01:06:44.200 can do a,

01:06:44.700 can you do

01:06:45.120 a fact check

01:06:45.660 on that?

01:06:46.900 Do I have

01:06:47.300 that approximately

01:06:48.080 right?

01:06:48.480 I don't

01:06:48.800 want to

01:06:49.040 misquote

01:06:49.560 Taleb.

01:06:51.980 The reason

01:06:52.540 I don't

01:06:52.840 want to

01:06:53.100 misquote

01:06:53.500 him is

01:06:53.900 because I

01:06:54.320 often

01:06:54.740 criticize

01:06:55.220 him.

01:06:56.160 If you

01:06:56.660 criticize

01:06:57.020 somebody,

01:06:57.540 you don't

01:06:57.740 want to

01:06:57.960 misquote

01:06:58.340 him.

01:06:58.600 That's

01:06:58.800 just a

01:06:59.100 bad

01:06:59.280 look.

01:07:01.320 10%?

01:07:02.260 All right.

01:07:02.560 So I'm

01:07:02.780 getting some

01:07:03.140 confirmation

01:07:03.700 that he

01:07:04.180 once said

01:07:04.800 that 10% 0.79

01:07:06.200 and he

01:07:06.540 had an

01:07:07.120 argument.

01:07:07.620 I remember

01:07:07.920 I read

01:07:08.240 his argument

01:07:08.640 and it

01:07:09.060 sounded

01:07:09.280 pretty solid.

01:07:10.860 And you

01:07:11.640 can imagine

01:07:12.400 how it

01:07:12.800 works because

01:07:13.820 you can see

01:07:14.300 it in this

01:07:14.680 country.

01:07:14.960 would you

01:07:18.020 agree that

01:07:19.660 the black

01:07:20.360 population of

01:07:21.260 America has 0.83

01:07:22.680 an oversized

01:07:23.640 footprint on

01:07:26.720 all of our

01:07:27.260 decision making

01:07:27.940 domestically?

01:07:29.000 You'd agree

01:07:29.420 with that,

01:07:29.820 right?

01:07:30.800 And African 0.85

01:07:32.240 Americans are

01:07:32.920 13% of the

01:07:33.840 country.

01:07:34.580 But that

01:07:35.200 13% has a

01:07:37.260 way out of

01:07:39.300 proportion impact

01:07:40.560 on everything

01:07:41.120 we do.

01:07:42.460 Now imagine

01:07:43.120 that instead

01:07:44.180 of being

01:07:44.680 black

01:07:45.380 Americans

01:07:45.880 who are

01:07:47.740 perfectly

01:07:48.280 happy to

01:07:49.500 be part of

01:07:49.980 America if 0.57

01:07:50.700 things could

01:07:52.320 improve a

01:07:52.740 little bit.

01:07:54.240 But black 0.99

01:07:55.060 Americans are

01:07:55.620 Americans,

01:07:56.900 right?

01:07:57.380 They want

01:07:58.060 better situation

01:07:59.540 in a variety

01:08:00.480 of ways,

01:08:00.960 but they still

01:08:01.360 want to be

01:08:01.680 Americans.

01:08:02.660 They still

01:08:03.000 want to have

01:08:03.400 democracy and

01:08:04.540 all that

01:08:05.560 stuff.

01:08:06.400 But if you

01:08:07.460 had 13%

01:08:08.840 of Islamic

01:08:10.420 fundamentalists,

01:08:11.940 they wouldn't

01:08:12.920 be looking to

01:08:13.560 negotiate.

01:08:14.680 they'd be

01:08:15.620 looking to

01:08:16.060 get anything

01:08:16.840 they want.

01:08:17.940 And I

01:08:18.320 think the

01:08:19.320 mechanism is

01:08:20.200 that politicians

01:08:22.460 will start

01:08:23.340 making

01:08:24.320 accommodations

01:08:26.240 at around

01:08:27.820 that size.

01:08:29.520 So when you're

01:08:30.260 in that 5%,

01:08:31.160 10% range and

01:08:32.480 you make a lot

01:08:32.980 of noise,

01:08:33.880 the politicians

01:08:34.500 are going to

01:08:34.980 start changing

01:08:35.820 things for your

01:08:36.580 benefit because

01:08:37.320 it's easier.

01:08:37.800 And then things

01:08:39.440 just keep

01:08:40.120 changing.

01:08:41.440 Let me give

01:08:42.460 you an example.

01:08:43.680 Let's say

01:08:44.260 13% of the

01:08:45.660 country were

01:08:46.640 Islamists.

01:08:50.460 I don't know

01:08:51.180 if I'm using

01:08:51.520 the word

01:08:52.140 correctly.

01:08:52.640 If we were

01:08:53.180 13% Islamists,

01:08:54.980 what would be

01:08:55.800 our current

01:08:56.320 policy on

01:08:57.260 immigration from

01:08:58.680 Islamic countries?

01:08:59.720 You see it?

01:09:02.180 If we had

01:09:03.900 13% Islamists 0.58

01:09:05.840 already here,

01:09:07.600 there would be

01:09:08.100 tremendous

01:09:08.660 pressure on

01:09:09.980 the government

01:09:10.440 to increase

01:09:11.240 immigration from

01:09:12.160 other Islamic 0.75

01:09:13.960 countries.

01:09:14.920 So you could

01:09:15.740 go from 13% to

01:09:17.040 20% really

01:09:18.940 quickly,

01:09:20.380 you know,

01:09:21.160 in terms of

01:09:22.220 the arc of

01:09:23.120 a country.

01:09:24.280 It would be

01:09:24.640 fairly quickly.

01:09:25.240 Once you get

01:09:26.320 to 20%,

01:09:27.240 things can

01:09:29.780 happen kind

01:09:30.580 of quickly

01:09:31.000 after that.

01:09:32.680 Because remember,

01:09:33.580 one of the

01:09:33.840 things that

01:09:34.320 Islam has as 1.00

01:09:35.500 a strength in

01:09:36.820 terms of its

01:09:37.560 spread is that

01:09:39.200 if you're a

01:09:40.300 serious,

01:09:41.380 old-school,

01:09:42.620 devoted Muslim,

01:09:44.140 once you're a

01:09:45.000 Muslim, you 0.99

01:09:45.480 can't leave.

01:09:47.120 You could be

01:09:47.780 killed.

01:09:49.580 I mean,

01:09:50.040 this is not,

01:09:51.620 we're not talking

01:09:52.480 about American

01:09:53.240 Muslims for the

01:09:54.020 most part.

01:09:54.480 We're talking

01:09:55.220 about, you

01:09:56.200 know, more

01:09:56.580 fundamentalists.

01:09:58.220 But that

01:09:58.880 fundamentalism could

01:10:00.000 easily, you

01:10:00.860 know, find its

01:10:01.380 way into any

01:10:01.920 other country,

01:10:02.540 such as France.

01:10:03.960 And I think

01:10:04.920 France is already 0.73

01:10:05.660 gone.

01:10:07.500 I think France

01:10:08.500 is essentially

01:10:09.480 on the way to

01:10:10.200 becoming an

01:10:10.920 Islamic European 0.66

01:10:12.440 country.

01:10:13.860 And that's

01:10:14.700 because I'm

01:10:15.040 agreeing with

01:10:15.580 Taleb that

01:10:16.700 there's an

01:10:17.460 obvious mechanism

01:10:18.560 for it to

01:10:19.140 happen.

01:10:20.280 And if

01:10:20.620 nothing changes

01:10:21.360 the obvious

01:10:22.240 mechanism for it

01:10:23.240 to happen,

01:10:24.480 we would

01:10:25.120 expect it

01:10:25.600 to happen.

01:10:26.380 And I don't

01:10:26.860 see anything

01:10:27.300 that would

01:10:27.520 change the

01:10:27.920 mechanism.

01:10:30.860 All right.

01:10:33.140 What motivated

01:10:34.020 the Crusades?

01:10:36.000 Good point.

01:10:36.700 Would you see

01:10:39.020 an equal decrease

01:10:39.800 in wokeness?

01:10:40.640 Oh, I think

01:10:41.000 wokeness is

01:10:42.260 dead.

01:10:44.260 So we've

01:10:46.080 now seen

01:10:46.560 that even

01:10:47.200 Larry Fink,

01:10:48.880 head of

01:10:49.360 BlackRock,

01:10:50.700 is disavowing

01:10:51.800 the use of

01:10:52.420 at least the

01:10:52.880 term ESG.

01:10:54.360 He says it's

01:10:54.960 embarrassing now

01:10:55.720 because he's

01:10:56.560 getting too

01:10:56.900 much feedback.

01:10:58.140 He's being,

01:10:58.800 I guess,

01:10:59.300 Jim Jordan

01:10:59.860 and Thomas

01:11:01.740 Massey and

01:11:02.560 somebody else

01:11:03.180 are asking

01:11:04.380 BlackRock to

01:11:05.800 come in

01:11:06.280 to talk about

01:11:08.240 ESG.

01:11:08.760 because apparently

01:11:10.260 there's an

01:11:10.760 argument that

01:11:11.420 it's antitrust.

01:11:14.040 Some kind

01:11:14.840 of colluding

01:11:15.540 industry

01:11:16.080 collusion

01:11:16.800 for ESG.

01:11:20.100 Somehow they

01:11:20.760 could make

01:11:21.100 that illegal.

01:11:22.020 I don't know.

01:11:23.420 But ESG is

01:11:25.420 in crisis.

01:11:27.140 The reporting

01:11:27.720 is that the

01:11:28.380 big companies

01:11:28.940 are downsizing

01:11:31.240 their DEI

01:11:32.100 departments.

01:11:33.680 You don't

01:11:34.480 downsize them

01:11:35.260 because it's

01:11:35.700 working.

01:11:36.660 Nobody downsizes

01:11:37.680 something that's

01:11:38.320 working.

01:11:40.400 And now that

01:11:41.280 the news is

01:11:41.960 saying that

01:11:42.360 the other big

01:11:42.900 companies are

01:11:43.500 downsizing DEI,

01:11:45.240 it makes it

01:11:45.800 safe.

01:11:46.960 So if you're

01:11:47.500 the tenth

01:11:48.560 company to do

01:11:49.380 it, nobody

01:11:49.800 notices.

01:11:50.800 So now it's

01:11:51.420 safe because

01:11:52.000 the news

01:11:52.480 reported that

01:11:53.200 everybody's

01:11:53.640 doing it.

01:11:54.740 Now everybody

01:11:55.260 can do it.

01:11:56.740 So you've

01:11:57.360 got DEI

01:11:58.180 on the

01:11:58.520 decline.

01:11:59.540 You've got

01:11:59.960 ESG on the

01:12:00.860 decline, at

01:12:01.560 least reputationally.

01:12:02.700 if not in

01:12:03.680 reality, but

01:12:04.360 reality would

01:12:05.140 follow reputation.

01:12:07.660 You've got

01:12:08.720 male nipple 0.90

01:12:11.380 milk from

01:12:13.000 the CDC.

01:12:14.220 Like that's a

01:12:14.960 headline story

01:12:15.680 today, that

01:12:17.000 male nipple 0.90

01:12:17.920 milk will be

01:12:19.200 recommended by

01:12:20.300 the CDC, I

01:12:21.060 guess.

01:12:21.880 Now there's

01:12:22.680 nobody who

01:12:23.240 doesn't think

01:12:23.680 that's ridiculous

01:12:24.880 except for

01:12:25.620 ridiculous people.

01:12:28.920 It's not like

01:12:29.920 the Democrats

01:12:30.660 are saying,

01:12:31.100 yeah, male

01:12:32.540 nipple

01:12:32.860 milk, get

01:12:34.620 me some

01:12:34.900 of that.

01:12:36.080 I'm so

01:12:36.780 thirsty, I

01:12:38.060 can't wait to

01:12:38.520 get some

01:12:38.820 male nipple 0.90

01:12:39.400 milk.

01:12:40.540 Nobody's

01:12:41.040 saying that.

01:12:42.260 So that's

01:12:42.920 the point of

01:12:43.480 ridiculousness

01:12:44.480 where you can

01:12:45.800 just mock it

01:12:46.540 openly.

01:12:48.100 You can't

01:12:49.000 mock openly,

01:12:50.520 and I don't

01:12:51.080 think you

01:12:51.420 should,

01:12:52.340 somebody's

01:12:52.940 lifestyle choice

01:12:54.160 of how they

01:12:54.700 present

01:12:55.120 themselves.

01:12:56.480 I think

01:12:56.900 that's fair.

01:12:58.320 People can

01:12:58.720 do what they

01:12:59.600 want to do,

01:12:59.980 they're adults.

01:13:00.560 You can

01:13:01.380 present

01:13:01.700 yourself in

01:13:02.240 any crazy

01:13:02.740 way you

01:13:03.100 want according

01:13:03.800 to somebody

01:13:04.900 else's opinion

01:13:05.540 of what's

01:13:06.000 crazy.

01:13:06.800 We're all

01:13:07.420 allowed to

01:13:07.780 do that.

01:13:09.340 But it

01:13:09.900 went to

01:13:10.300 male nipple 0.90

01:13:10.840 milk.

01:13:11.680 Once you

01:13:12.080 get to

01:13:12.340 male nipple 0.90

01:13:12.820 milk, we

01:13:13.380 can all

01:13:13.660 just make

01:13:14.760 fun of it.

01:13:16.080 Once you

01:13:16.700 can mock

01:13:17.260 it, and

01:13:17.840 that was

01:13:18.120 what was

01:13:18.480 missing,

01:13:19.860 you couldn't

01:13:20.620 mock some

01:13:22.500 elements of

01:13:23.160 wokeness without

01:13:23.900 getting slammed.

01:13:25.720 But now you

01:13:26.180 can say it

01:13:26.600 out loud.

01:13:26.920 You saw

01:13:29.120 what I got

01:13:29.620 cancelled for.

01:13:30.880 We don't

01:13:31.500 have to

01:13:31.820 bring that

01:13:32.180 up again.

01:13:33.600 But you

01:13:34.240 can see

01:13:34.640 also that

01:13:35.540 after I

01:13:36.100 got cancelled,

01:13:37.040 people now

01:13:37.640 can say that

01:13:38.400 openly everywhere.

01:13:40.280 They can

01:13:40.860 say what I

01:13:41.360 got cancelled

01:13:41.900 for openly

01:13:42.780 everywhere.

01:13:44.180 Now.

01:13:45.440 Am I

01:13:45.720 wrong?

01:13:46.880 You see it

01:13:47.300 on social

01:13:47.700 media every

01:13:48.220 day.

01:13:49.040 Every day

01:13:49.500 people say

01:13:50.100 at least

01:13:50.480 get away

01:13:50.820 from cities.

01:13:52.400 Get out

01:13:52.840 of cities.

01:13:53.500 Which is

01:13:54.020 saying the

01:13:54.440 same thing.

01:13:55.260 The people

01:13:55.600 who say

01:13:55.900 get out

01:13:56.300 of cities,

01:13:56.920 they're

01:13:57.780 saying what

01:13:58.180 I said.

01:13:59.820 They're

01:14:00.300 just using

01:14:01.100 different

01:14:01.440 words.

01:14:04.040 All right.

01:14:06.820 Yeah,

01:14:07.360 getting away

01:14:07.780 from people

01:14:08.260 who overtly

01:14:09.900 say that

01:14:10.420 they don't

01:14:10.800 like you

01:14:11.340 and that

01:14:12.180 you're the

01:14:12.520 cause of

01:14:12.940 their problems.

01:14:14.340 I think

01:14:14.980 everyone agrees

01:14:15.700 getting away

01:14:16.160 from them.

01:14:17.400 I've never

01:14:18.020 seen anybody

01:14:18.500 who didn't.

01:14:22.900 Yeah,

01:14:23.440 cities is

01:14:24.020 the new

01:14:24.360 urban.

01:14:25.040 You're

01:14:25.200 right.

01:14:25.420 I didn't

01:14:27.420 notice that

01:14:27.880 but you're

01:14:28.140 right.

01:14:31.800 Get out

01:14:32.220 of cities

01:14:32.580 is the

01:14:33.060 new racist

01:14:33.680 dog whistle.

01:14:34.780 But you

01:14:34.960 know what's

01:14:35.220 different?

01:14:35.800 I think

01:14:36.000 even if

01:14:36.760 you said

01:14:37.120 hey,

01:14:38.180 if you're

01:14:38.560 saying

01:14:38.820 getting out

01:14:39.320 of cities

01:14:40.100 is,

01:14:41.740 if somebody

01:14:42.480 tells you

01:14:43.100 that you're

01:14:44.360 being racist

01:14:45.060 for saying

01:14:45.500 get out

01:14:45.840 of cities,

01:14:46.600 do you

01:14:46.840 know what's

01:14:47.100 different?

01:14:49.220 What's

01:14:49.780 different about

01:14:50.340 this?

01:14:51.580 So you

01:14:52.220 say people

01:14:52.900 should get

01:14:53.240 out of

01:14:53.440 cities and

01:14:54.100 then somebody

01:14:54.520 says that's

01:14:55.300 a racist

01:14:55.680 dog whistle.

01:14:56.860 What's

01:14:57.080 your response?

01:14:58.940 Yeah,

01:14:59.160 that's probably

01:14:59.560 true.

01:15:01.220 It's probably

01:15:01.700 true.

01:15:04.460 Right?

01:15:06.140 You could

01:15:06.880 just say it

01:15:07.340 out loud now.

01:15:08.700 Hey,

01:15:08.940 that's really

01:15:09.380 racist.

01:15:09.940 You're saying

01:15:10.260 get out

01:15:10.620 of cities.

01:15:11.480 You could

01:15:12.080 just say

01:15:12.520 out loud,

01:15:13.460 yeah,

01:15:13.740 in a way

01:15:14.340 you're really

01:15:14.760 right.

01:15:15.580 That's a good

01:15:16.020 point.

01:15:17.320 I'm still

01:15:17.920 going to do

01:15:18.360 it because

01:15:19.580 my personal

01:15:20.320 safety is

01:15:22.300 my business.

01:15:24.180 You get

01:15:24.860 that,

01:15:25.140 right?

01:15:26.500 If I'm

01:15:27.460 doing hiring

01:15:28.360 in a company,

01:15:29.180 that is sort

01:15:29.780 of everybody's

01:15:30.420 business.

01:15:31.420 If you're

01:15:32.100 running for

01:15:32.500 office,

01:15:32.960 that's

01:15:33.180 everybody's

01:15:33.680 business.

01:15:34.720 You want

01:15:35.060 as much

01:15:35.340 diversity.

01:15:36.640 I'm in

01:15:37.240 favor of

01:15:37.700 the courts

01:15:38.340 and as

01:15:39.660 much as

01:15:40.080 possible

01:15:40.600 within reason

01:15:41.540 that businesses

01:15:42.220 look like

01:15:42.800 the community.

01:15:43.940 I like

01:15:44.340 that our

01:15:44.640 government

01:15:45.040 represents,

01:15:46.200 looks a

01:15:46.820 little bit

01:15:47.120 like the

01:15:47.480 people.

01:15:48.360 That's

01:15:48.580 all good.

01:15:49.880 But if

01:15:50.260 you're

01:15:50.400 talking

01:15:50.600 about

01:15:50.960 your

01:15:51.600 personal

01:15:53.020 safety,

01:15:54.140 that's

01:15:54.740 nobody's

01:15:55.160 business.

01:15:56.560 There's

01:15:56.820 nothing in

01:15:57.220 the Constitution

01:15:57.860 that says

01:15:58.280 you have to

01:15:59.540 justify your

01:16:00.300 personal safety

01:16:01.780 decisions to

01:16:03.300 anybody.

01:16:04.800 Nobody gets

01:16:05.500 a second bet

01:16:07.360 on that.

01:16:07.940 So if they

01:16:08.400 would like to

01:16:08.980 characterize your

01:16:09.800 decisions as

01:16:10.540 racist, 0.77

01:16:11.820 the correct

01:16:12.620 answer to

01:16:13.180 that is,

01:16:14.040 yeah,

01:16:14.200 I can see

01:16:14.540 how you'd

01:16:14.860 say that.

01:16:16.760 I can see

01:16:17.520 how you'd

01:16:17.820 say that.

01:16:18.880 I get

01:16:19.480 your point.

01:16:20.480 Your point

01:16:20.900 is well

01:16:21.240 taken.

01:16:22.700 But it

01:16:23.240 shouldn't

01:16:23.740 make any

01:16:24.100 difference to

01:16:24.500 your decision.

01:16:26.820 Your decision

01:16:27.700 is your

01:16:28.020 decision.

01:16:28.480 It's just

01:16:28.720 personal safety.

01:16:30.060 You're just

01:16:30.420 playing the

01:16:30.840 odds as

01:16:31.480 you see

01:16:31.780 them.

01:16:32.460 You can

01:16:32.780 be wrong

01:16:33.120 about the

01:16:33.500 odds,

01:16:34.280 but you're

01:16:34.760 playing the

01:16:35.200 odds as

01:16:35.960 you see

01:16:36.280 them.

01:16:36.920 That's

01:16:37.340 always

01:16:37.860 legal,

01:16:39.300 unless you're

01:16:39.940 doing an

01:16:40.240 actual crime.

01:16:40.920 All right.

01:16:48.340 What else

01:16:49.220 did I need

01:16:50.020 to talk

01:16:50.320 about?

01:16:50.940 Kansas

01:16:51.260 needs

01:16:51.720 legal pot.

01:16:52.800 Josh,

01:16:53.340 I'll work

01:16:53.720 on that.

01:16:55.300 Till then,

01:16:56.640 stay alive.

01:17:02.040 All right.

01:17:04.800 Do you

01:17:05.240 still believe

01:17:05.760 the experts

01:17:06.360 that told

01:17:06.840 you there

01:17:07.240 was a

01:17:07.580 pandemic?

01:17:08.760 That's

01:17:09.260 word

01:17:09.560 thinking.

01:17:11.980 I don't

01:17:12.840 participate

01:17:13.380 in word

01:17:13.900 thinking.

01:17:19.320 So Karl

01:17:20.300 Rove

01:17:20.700 named 19

01:17:21.500 candidates in

01:17:22.240 the Wall

01:17:22.500 Street Journal,

01:17:23.140 but not

01:17:23.520 Vivek or

01:17:24.280 Kennedy.

01:17:26.040 Well, I

01:17:27.800 don't think

01:17:28.220 Karl Rove

01:17:28.860 is what

01:17:29.240 you'd call

01:17:29.660 an independent

01:17:30.580 observer.

01:17:33.640 If you're

01:17:34.480 listening to

01:17:35.040 Karl Rove

01:17:35.940 in terms

01:17:38.000 of his

01:17:38.400 preferences,

01:17:39.700 I wouldn't

01:17:40.140 bother doing

01:17:40.680 that.

01:17:41.440 He's really

01:17:41.980 good in

01:17:42.400 terms of

01:17:43.240 explaining

01:17:44.540 what's

01:17:44.900 going on.

01:17:46.760 He's

01:17:47.240 excellent at

01:17:47.800 just explaining

01:17:48.720 what's

01:17:49.080 true.

01:17:49.860 But once

01:17:50.280 you get

01:17:50.540 to anything

01:17:51.360 that's like

01:17:51.840 his preference

01:17:52.500 for who

01:17:52.900 should be,

01:17:53.320 that's just

01:17:53.760 his opinion.

01:17:57.840 Time to

01:17:58.500 milk your

01:17:58.900 man.

01:18:02.780 It's time

01:18:03.500 to milk

01:18:04.020 my man.

01:18:05.940 I don't

01:18:08.220 know who

01:18:08.520 said that.

01:18:11.120 It's time

01:18:11.820 to go

01:18:12.100 milk my

01:18:12.640 man.

01:18:13.680 All right.

01:18:14.260 On that

01:18:14.960 comment,

01:18:16.340 YouTube,

01:18:17.720 we must

01:18:18.000 be done.

01:18:20.080 We must

01:18:20.800 be done

01:18:21.260 on that

01:18:22.060 comment.
