Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2346 CWSA 01⧸07⧸24

00:00:00.000 Come on YouTube. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

00:00:13.240 Good morning everybody and welcome.

00:00:21.260 The Coffee with Scott Adams is the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:24.160 And if you would like to take this experience up to levels which, I don't know, I don't think any of us can even imagine,

00:00:32.780 all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tankard chalice or stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:40.260 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:42.860 I like coffee.

00:00:44.260 Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.

00:00:47.100 It's the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:50.060 It's called The Simultaneous Sip and it happens now.

00:00:58.020 Ah.

00:00:59.680 That was glorious, really.

00:01:02.480 I almost feel like I need another one.

00:01:05.100 Anybody?

00:01:06.660 Double sip.

00:01:07.860 Double sip.

00:01:09.380 Go.

00:01:12.640 Yeah, I needed that.

00:01:14.540 I could not go on without that extra caffeine.

00:01:16.820 But now, we're ready for the best show that's ever been.

00:01:23.040 Would anybody like to give me a hearty thank you for making the term Dementia Hitler trend for 48 hours on X?

00:01:34.340 Anybody?

00:01:35.680 Would anybody like to thank me for that?

00:01:38.220 Yeah.

00:01:38.940 Yeah, I did that.

00:01:39.760 You know, it's funny.

00:01:43.280 The Dementia Hitler, you never know what's going to catch on.

00:01:49.780 It's not like it's the first time I tried to make something catchy.

00:01:53.680 But it doesn't always work.

00:01:55.700 And I don't always know why it doesn't work.

00:01:57.920 But sometimes you know it does and sometimes it doesn't.

00:02:00.220 So I was just looking at Biden giving his speech.

00:02:05.140 And the term just popped into my head.

00:02:08.160 Just fully formed.

00:02:09.680 I just saw Dementia Hitler.

00:02:12.400 So I wrote it down.

00:02:14.040 And when I wrote it down, I said to myself,

00:02:16.360 That's kind of sticky.

00:02:18.320 But I had no idea that it would be trending for two days.

00:02:22.000 So far.

00:02:22.800 My goal is to get Trump to use the phrase Dementia Hitler.

00:02:29.940 I don't think he will.

00:02:31.840 Because it's not his own.

00:02:34.280 But we'll see.

00:02:36.820 So I wonder, you know, after a big speech like Joe Biden did on January 6th,

00:02:44.760 do you think that afterwards he talks to his staff and says,

00:02:48.420 Hey, how'd it go?

00:02:50.740 How do you think I did?

00:02:51.580 And they're like, well, well, you know, you're fine.

00:02:56.740 You're fine.

00:02:57.300 I know, but what's the feedback?

00:02:59.480 You know, what is social media saying about my speech?

00:03:02.460 Well, well, many of your supporters liked it a lot.

00:03:06.560 Okay, I know the supporters are going to like it.

00:03:08.620 What about the, you know, the other people?

00:03:11.200 Well, you're trending on X.

00:03:14.940 Excellent.

00:03:15.920 Excellent.

00:03:16.560 That's what I was hoping for.

00:03:18.560 What's it say?

00:03:19.380 Well, what's trending is the phrase Dementia Hitler.

00:03:24.540 So that's how your speech went.

00:03:27.340 There you go.

00:03:29.360 All right.

00:03:29.920 In other news, Microsoft and OpenAI are being sued by some authors of nonfiction books.

00:03:38.680 And the idea is that the AI is scraping their work and it's getting it in some way that they say is a violation of copyright.

00:03:49.940 Now, I've heard that the fiction writers separately were trying to do something legally as well.

00:03:58.180 But I don't really understand why that makes sense.

00:04:00.720 If you write a work of fiction, isn't the value of the book the exact wording and your phrases and your sentences?

00:04:11.900 It's not like AI is going to reproduce that.

00:04:15.100 I mean, it might do a sentence or something as a quote, but it's not going to reproduce the book for free.

00:04:19.900 And I can't really summarize it because a summary of a fiction book is nothing.

00:04:27.660 You know, summarize Romeo and Juliet.

00:04:30.760 Well, two lovers, you know, they had trouble getting together.

00:04:35.120 Families didn't like each other.

00:04:36.800 Ended up committing suicide.

00:04:40.540 Fiction, fiction by its design can't be summarized.

00:04:44.820 So I'm not exactly sure what the fiction writers have to worry about with AI.

00:04:50.200 But I'll tell you that nonfiction writers have a lot to worry.

00:04:53.720 And I'm one of those.

00:04:55.900 So in addition to Dilbert-y jokes, which would be fiction, my latest books are all nonfiction.

00:05:04.600 Reframe Your Brain, the book that is changing lives all over the world right now, is nonfiction.

00:05:10.960 Now, I'm going to tell you something that I probably shouldn't tell you.

00:05:16.720 You can get a summary of most books just by asking AI.

00:05:22.220 It'll tell you the basic idea.

00:05:24.700 And the thing that I shouldn't tell you, as a fiction writer, I'm kind of being disloyal to my people,

00:05:31.240 is that most nonfiction books can be summarized just fine.

00:05:35.340 Most nonfiction books can be summarized by AI just fine.

00:05:43.340 In fact, I use ChatGPT in voice mode, where you can just talk to it anytime you want.

00:05:50.160 You don't have to use any wake-up terms.

00:05:54.720 You just start talking.

00:05:56.220 You can have a conversation with it on anything.

00:05:59.620 So the other day I was driving and listening to my AI, and there was a book.

00:06:03.480 I'm not going to mention the book, because I think it would be unfair in this context.

00:06:08.640 But there's a very well-known business book that I had not read, but I felt bad because I should.

00:06:15.980 You know, there's some books you kind of have to read to be considered up-to-date on what's going on.

00:06:22.220 And I said to myself, well, AI, can you summarize that book?

00:06:25.500 And I did.

00:06:25.920 And I went away feeling that I didn't really need to see anymore.

00:06:32.060 The summary was sufficient.

00:06:36.700 You know, I asked questions, which is the way I like to learn.

00:06:40.420 I like to get the general idea of something and then ask a question.

00:06:44.200 It's like, well, does that include this?

00:06:45.960 And how do you define that?

00:06:47.720 And, you know, that sort of thing.

00:06:48.860 So I had some questions.

00:06:49.820 But basically, I saved myself four hours of reading a book, and I don't think I lost anything.

00:07:00.180 I feel like I got exactly everything I needed from the summary.

00:07:04.600 Now, can you do that to my books?

00:07:07.880 That would be your next question, right?

00:07:10.400 Can AI summarize my books, because they're also nonfiction?

00:07:14.520 It's factual stuff.

00:07:16.720 And the answer is no.

00:07:17.920 Well, you can't summarize them.

00:07:20.960 And the reason you can't summarize mine is that I write it with persuasion techniques,

00:07:27.480 which if you take the persuasion out, you would have a description of tools that nobody would use.

00:07:34.820 Let me say it again.

00:07:36.320 When I write a book of fiction, it's usually stuff that I think would make your life better.

00:07:43.600 But only if you do it.

00:07:45.700 Only if you do it.

00:07:47.920 Reading about it isn't going to do anything for you.

00:07:50.720 So I combine in my nonfiction books the type of text that would persuade you to maybe try it.

00:07:59.040 If you summarize my book, you would take the persuasion out.

00:08:03.160 You'd say, well, he says do this and this and that.

00:08:05.460 You wouldn't do it.

00:08:06.820 You absolutely would not do it because you heard a summary.

00:08:09.620 So if you summarize my book, you lose most of the value, because it'd be a bunch of stuff you don't try.

00:08:19.220 Now, there are two ways to convince people to do stuff.

00:08:22.880 One is to show them some science, which sometimes can convince people.

00:08:26.920 I use more story form because stories are more persuasive.

00:08:33.540 So if I say I had this experience and I know three people that have this experience, you're probably more persuaded than if I said there was a meta-analysis or something that you didn't trust anyway.

00:08:45.000 So don't take the persuasion out.

00:08:47.700 But these authors are suing OpenAI and they're asking for $150,000 a piece for what?

00:08:55.740 All fiction, nonfiction authors that become part of it?

00:09:00.920 I don't know.

00:09:01.940 Does that sound fair?

00:09:02.740 Do you think ChatGPT should be allowed to essentially steal and summarize your book if they gave you $150,000 once?

00:09:16.560 That's probably 99% of writers would say that was the best deal they ever saw in their life.

00:09:22.000 And 1% would say, that's way less than my book is worth.

00:09:26.520 I don't know.

00:09:27.080 We'll find out what the courts say about this.

00:09:29.000 Well, there's a big problem with insuring homes, if you didn't know.

00:09:35.140 Some of it seems to be getting blamed on climate change, which I believe is bullshit.

00:09:42.100 But there are other reasons as well.

00:09:44.220 One reason is people keep building in dangerous places.

00:09:47.980 So the more expensive homes you build on the coast of Florida, the more it's going to cost you for insurance.

00:09:53.940 In California, our version of that is, if you build your expensive new McMansion in an area that's close to a forest that's poorly managed, your house might burn up.

00:10:08.580 And your insurance company knows that now.

00:10:10.740 So they're not going to give you insurance.

00:10:12.500 They're going to say, nope, we don't want to take the risk of insuring your $3 million McMansion next to this forest that will probably burn down in the next five years.

00:10:23.940 So it's a real big problem.

00:10:25.800 If you can't get insurance, the entire housing industry dies.

00:10:30.780 And if you have to pay so much for it, the rates are going up as much as 50% since the last few years.

00:10:40.500 Your home insurance is up about 50%, which is something that every voter with a home is going to notice if they haven't insured.

00:10:50.040 You're definitely going to notice that.

00:10:53.800 So we'll keep an eye on that.

00:10:57.220 But here's what I think will happen.

00:10:59.760 I think that the market will adjust.

00:11:02.800 Because our markets are flexible enough that somebody is going to figure out how to build a home that doesn't get destroyed by a hurricane.

00:11:10.980 Right?

00:11:12.000 That's all it would take.

00:11:13.100 You just have to build a home that won't burn down and won't be destroyed by a hurricane, which can be done.

00:11:21.700 Can be done.

00:11:22.860 So you just need more of those, I think.

00:11:27.940 Yeah.

00:11:29.880 Anyway.

00:11:31.460 So where are people moving to?

00:11:36.840 This is an interesting article in the New York Post.

00:11:39.100 I was kind of interested in it.

00:11:40.320 You always hear about California and Florida and Texas.

00:11:44.740 But apparently the places people are moving to most are Vermont and South Carolina.

00:11:52.100 Did you know that?

00:11:53.680 That the states with the most incoming are Vermont and South Carolina?

00:11:59.500 Bernie Sanders is a little Vermont.

00:12:02.120 It's very popular.

00:12:02.940 Now, I feel like the Vermont people are, some of them are, you know, just going for a simpler lifestyle and they like the scenery and stuff.

00:12:12.900 But don't you think a lot of the people moving to Vermont are saying, get me out of the city?

00:12:19.280 Doesn't it feel like people are escaping for their own safety, at least to some extent?

00:12:24.260 Maybe lower cost of living as well.

00:12:26.880 I couldn't put up in the snow, but South Carolina is the other place.

00:12:30.500 What do Vermont and South Carolina have in common?

00:12:36.820 Anybody?

00:12:38.260 What do Vermont and South Carolina have in common?

00:12:44.460 Maybe nothing?

00:12:46.640 Lower cost of living?

00:12:49.140 Maybe a lower cost of living.

00:12:51.240 And I hear South Carolina is really beautiful.

00:12:54.120 Isn't there the most livable city in the country is in South Carolina?

00:12:59.800 Or is it North Carolina?

00:13:01.660 Is it Greenville or something?

00:13:03.500 Where's Greenville?

00:13:05.120 South Carolina?

00:13:06.760 North?

00:13:10.040 All right.

00:13:11.500 So wherever that is.

00:13:14.020 And the people are moving away from California, New Jersey, Illinois, and Michigan.

00:13:20.260 Did you know that?

00:13:21.300 You probably knew about California, but did you know people are moving out of New Jersey, Illinois, and Michigan?

00:13:26.620 I wonder if those are all high-tax states.

00:13:29.900 Does anybody know?

00:13:34.840 Greenville is in both.

00:13:37.220 Oh.

00:13:37.680 So there's a Greenville in both North and South Carolina.

00:13:40.860 But I'm told the good one is in South Carolina.

00:13:44.200 The good one.

00:13:45.420 How would you like to be the bad Greenville?

00:13:46.980 Well, it's probably pretty good, too, but there's one that's better.

00:13:51.720 All right.

00:13:52.320 There's a big story in the Wall Street Journal about how investors and people are worried about Elon Musk's illegal drug use.

00:14:01.620 Now, before I tell you this whole story about people all upset about Elon Musk's illegal drug use,

00:14:08.920 here's what you need to know.

00:14:10.260 Well, three years ago, after, this is what Musk himself says on X.

00:14:18.920 He said, after one puff with Rogan, meaning one puff of marijuana,

00:14:23.420 I agreed at NASA's request to do three years of random drug testing.

00:14:28.780 Not even trace quantities were found of any drug or alcohol.

00:14:33.740 Or alcohol.

00:14:37.860 Nothing.

00:14:39.100 In three years.

00:14:40.260 So, three years of total cleanness.

00:14:46.220 And the Wall Street Journal writes a long article about how everybody's worried about his drug use.

00:14:52.360 It's going to ruin everything.

00:14:54.620 Now, what would you call that?

00:14:57.340 Is that news?

00:14:59.340 Does that look like valuable news that you need to know?

00:15:03.800 No.

00:15:04.920 This is clearly a hit piece from the Wall Street Journal.

00:15:08.740 Now, I do expect more from the Wall Street Journal, I have to admit.

00:15:14.100 I expect better than this.

00:15:17.620 I think the Wall Street Journal is typically much better than this.

00:15:21.200 This is despicable.

00:15:23.500 It's despicable.

00:15:25.140 Now, I think Musk does, you know, everything that needs to be done to debunk it,

00:15:31.340 just by saying that he's been tested for three years and he doesn't have even trace quantities,

00:15:37.460 including alcohol.

00:15:38.540 Now, does Elon Musk not drink?

00:15:44.100 Is that a thing?

00:15:44.980 Does anybody know?

00:15:47.100 Because I'd be very impressed if that's the case.

00:15:50.220 Does he not even have a casual drink?

00:15:52.780 And the reason I ask is because there are a lot of very influential people,

00:15:58.460 more of them I see in the political right,

00:16:01.720 who have stopped drinking and they like to let you know publicly,

00:16:05.040 I'm one of those people.

00:16:07.200 And it feels like that trend is really increasing.

00:16:10.780 Have you seen it as well?

00:16:12.060 Well, the number of public figures who say they don't drink anything,

00:16:17.340 you know, such as me.

00:16:19.920 Yeah.

00:16:20.980 Anyway, I'd love to know if he is just off of alcohol or they didn't find any

00:16:27.060 because it doesn't stay in your system that long.

00:16:29.080 I don't know which one it is.

00:16:31.240 But here's the thing you need to know.

00:16:32.940 So I added this to the argument.

00:16:34.680 And this is one of the things I can say because I'm canceled and disgraced.

00:16:43.100 So this free speech stuff is just terrific.

00:16:46.640 I got to tell you, my enjoyment of social media

00:16:50.680 and just being able to talk in public in general

00:16:54.220 is about 120% better than it was last year.

00:16:59.160 Because here's a topic that I can tell you without any hesitation

00:17:03.040 that I don't know if I would have done even a year ago.

00:17:07.160 And it goes like this.

00:17:08.780 I'm going to tell you a big secret of Silicon Valley

00:17:11.140 and perhaps American industry in general,

00:17:14.820 but I know less about that.

00:17:17.020 And it's this.

00:17:19.880 In the normal world,

00:17:22.580 both the successful people and the unsuccessful people

00:17:25.980 are doing a lot of drugs,

00:17:28.000 including alcohol and tobacco.

00:17:31.080 A lot of drugs.

00:17:33.040 But what's the difference between the super successful people

00:17:35.820 and the people who become addicts and street people

00:17:39.020 and they lose their jobs and their family and everything?

00:17:42.680 What's the difference?

00:17:44.360 Well, nobody's going to tell you this,

00:17:46.400 except me,

00:17:47.580 because you just aren't allowed to say this out loud.

00:17:50.740 I'm going to tell you something out loud

00:17:53.120 that I believe is known to everybody in Silicon Valley,

00:17:57.880 but you've never seen an article on it.

00:18:00.460 Or at least I haven't.

00:18:01.240 Maybe somebody has written one.

00:18:02.900 It goes like this.

00:18:05.120 It is inaccurate and maybe misleading

00:18:08.000 to say there's people on drugs

00:18:10.960 and then people not on drugs.

00:18:13.880 And that the people not on drugs

00:18:15.560 are operating efficiently and getting stuff done.

00:18:18.020 And the people on drugs are all a mess.

00:18:21.560 In a general way,

00:18:23.420 I would agree you should stay off drugs.

00:18:26.040 In a general way,

00:18:27.940 it's better not to do any.

00:18:30.300 In just sort of an overall general way.

00:18:33.760 However,

00:18:34.620 we live in a world where no two people are the same.

00:18:37.240 Your reaction to,

00:18:40.220 let's say,

00:18:40.660 a drink of alcohol

00:18:41.580 might be completely different

00:18:42.840 than someone else's.

00:18:45.000 And the same goes for the other drugs.

00:18:47.760 But more to the point,

00:18:49.300 beyond the individual differences,

00:18:51.340 is that the drugs that people choose

00:18:53.700 have very different characteristics.

00:18:56.240 There are drugs which primarily,

00:18:59.520 if used correctly,

00:19:00.860 can enhance your performance

00:19:02.860 that are illegal.

00:19:05.520 There are drugs which,

00:19:07.280 if used even correctly,

00:19:09.760 will degrade your performance

00:19:11.380 and there's no way around it.

00:19:13.380 Right?

00:19:14.160 If you're taking too much Klonopin

00:19:16.660 or you're drinking

00:19:17.840 or you're,

00:19:19.100 I don't know,

00:19:20.700 probably heroin or something,

00:19:22.580 not going to help.

00:19:23.740 That's not making you

00:19:27.480 able to make rocket ships.

00:19:29.520 If you're shooting fentanyl in your arm,

00:19:32.360 you're not making car companies

00:19:33.820 and rocket companies.

00:19:35.900 That's the wrong choice of drug.

00:19:38.340 If you're drinking all day long,

00:19:40.500 sometimes you could be a functional alcoholic.

00:19:42.780 There are lots of them.

00:19:44.020 But it's probably not helping you.

00:19:45.440 It may be something you're managing.

00:19:48.820 But it's not making you better at your job.

00:19:51.820 However,

00:19:52.300 there are a number of drugs

00:19:55.460 and most of them were named

00:19:57.260 in the Wall Street Journal article

00:19:59.260 that are closer to performance enhancers

00:20:02.480 than performance herders.

00:20:07.040 One of them that's closer to an enhancer

00:20:09.360 is mushrooms and LSD

00:20:11.140 and psychedelics in general.

00:20:14.040 Now,

00:20:14.520 I want to be really as precise

00:20:16.620 as I can about this.

00:20:18.160 For some number of people

00:20:19.740 doing hallucinogenics

00:20:22.080 could be terrible.

00:20:24.260 Could be.

00:20:25.700 You could overdo it.

00:20:27.640 I imagine there's all kinds of risks.

00:20:29.860 So I don't recommend it.

00:20:31.840 And in general,

00:20:32.660 I'm not going to recommend

00:20:33.700 that anybody do any of the drugs

00:20:36.220 that I'm about to mention.

00:20:37.700 Don't drink alcohol.

00:20:38.900 Don't smoke cigarettes.

00:20:40.240 Don't do weed.

00:20:41.120 Even if I say I do.

00:20:42.600 Don't do it.

00:20:43.620 Because I'm not a doctor

00:20:44.600 and I do it for medicinal purposes.

00:20:49.380 But,

00:20:49.960 it must be said

00:20:51.760 that a lot of the greatest accomplishments

00:20:55.240 probably depended on psychedelics.

00:20:57.780 I'm going to say this

00:21:00.400 as firmly as possible.

00:21:03.440 Probably a lot

00:21:05.040 of the biggest accomplishments

00:21:06.680 in American tech

00:21:08.960 were from people

00:21:10.620 who were on

00:21:11.260 the right kind of drugs

00:21:12.700 and in the right way.

00:21:14.780 Meaning

00:21:15.220 that the psychedelics

00:21:16.940 may have

00:21:17.460 cured their mental illness

00:21:19.460 so that they could go on

00:21:21.380 to better performance.

00:21:22.880 It may have made them

00:21:24.140 more open-minded.

00:21:25.300 It may have

00:21:27.420 simply made their life better

00:21:29.320 so that they could

00:21:30.080 put more gusto

00:21:31.400 into what they're doing.

00:21:33.280 Now,

00:21:33.960 and again,

00:21:34.800 I'll keep repeating myself

00:21:36.180 because I don't want to make,

00:21:37.300 I want to make sure

00:21:37.800 I'm not confusing anybody.

00:21:41.160 All of the drugs I mentioned

00:21:42.640 could be devastating

00:21:43.680 to a person's life

00:21:44.860 and I don't recommend them

00:21:46.540 at all.

00:21:47.600 Period.

00:21:48.080 I don't recommend them.

00:21:50.200 But,

00:21:50.860 it is nonetheless true

00:21:52.080 that some number

00:21:53.560 of the greatest accomplishments

00:21:55.020 of the world

00:21:55.660 probably,

00:21:57.260 not probably,

00:21:58.420 certainly,

00:21:59.440 came from people

00:22:00.200 who had enhanced

00:22:01.000 their abilities

00:22:01.640 through some illegal drugs.

00:22:05.440 Suppose you knew

00:22:06.580 that somebody

00:22:07.180 was capable

00:22:08.120 of doing great things

00:22:09.640 if only they could

00:22:11.440 beat their depression.

00:22:14.220 And then they took

00:22:14.980 ketamine.

00:22:16.380 Ketamine?

00:22:17.140 Ketamine?

00:22:18.060 I always read it

00:22:19.640 but I never hear it.

00:22:20.760 Ketamine or ketamine?

00:22:22.800 It's one of those.

00:22:23.780 And suppose you took that

00:22:25.520 and suppose you did it

00:22:26.740 responsibly

00:22:27.520 and it helped you

00:22:29.260 with your mental health.

00:22:32.240 Well,

00:22:32.560 that frees you.

00:22:34.100 Now you can go

00:22:35.040 do those things.

00:22:36.500 But if you're just,

00:22:37.660 you know,

00:22:37.960 tortured by your mental health

00:22:39.700 and you don't know

00:22:41.420 what to do about it,

00:22:42.280 you've tried all the normal things,

00:22:43.800 therapy didn't work

00:22:44.760 and,

00:22:45.680 you know,

00:22:45.980 whatever.

00:22:46.900 Maybe,

00:22:47.960 maybe,

00:22:48.480 and again,

00:22:49.460 I'm not recommending this

00:22:51.040 so if you have

00:22:51.560 a mental health problem,

00:22:52.900 don't go take a bunch

00:22:53.760 of ketamine

00:22:54.220 because you heard it

00:22:54.860 on the live stream.

00:22:56.220 Be responsible.

00:22:58.040 Don't take drugs.

00:22:59.940 I'm just saying

00:23:00.980 that in the right situation,

00:23:04.280 that a smart person

00:23:05.640 can enhance

00:23:06.740 their capabilities

00:23:07.640 substantially.

00:23:09.260 And I won't go through

00:23:10.400 all the other drugs

00:23:11.500 and say

00:23:12.360 how it could be misused

00:23:14.020 but how somebody

00:23:14.860 might use it correctly.

00:23:16.300 I'm just saying

00:23:17.020 if you're doing

00:23:17.640 downers

00:23:19.120 that are making you

00:23:20.740 sleepy and stupid,

00:23:21.880 it's not helping you.

00:23:23.380 But if you're doing things

00:23:24.580 that expand your mind

00:23:25.800 and don't have

00:23:27.280 a lot of downside,

00:23:29.460 something that helps

00:23:30.160 your mental health,

00:23:32.260 something that makes you

00:23:33.960 more creative,

00:23:35.040 more energized,

00:23:36.320 more interested,

00:23:37.980 it would actually help.

00:23:40.600 Now,

00:23:41.060 when I saw that

00:23:42.000 Wall Street Journal

00:23:43.120 said the Elon Musk

00:23:44.000 has done

00:23:44.500 these following drugs

00:23:46.320 that reports say

00:23:48.420 at various parties

00:23:49.320 or something,

00:23:50.500 obviously not

00:23:51.180 in the last three years

00:23:52.100 but sometime in the past,

00:23:54.960 I say to myself,

00:23:55.960 can I get a list?

00:23:57.940 Can I get a list

00:23:58.980 of those drugs?

00:24:00.180 Because whatever

00:24:01.180 he's doing is working.

00:24:04.220 Is somebody suggesting

00:24:05.720 that if he had not done

00:24:07.920 those few party drugs

00:24:09.440 that were mentioned,

00:24:10.900 you know,

00:24:11.080 they were in the context

00:24:12.020 of a party?

00:24:13.360 If somebody suggested

00:24:14.360 that if he hadn't done it,

00:24:16.980 that SpaceX would be

00:24:19.380 doing much better?

00:24:22.660 Would he be selling

00:24:23.700 more Tesla cars

00:24:24.980 if he had not smoked

00:24:27.060 a joint with Joe Rogan?

00:24:29.740 I mean,

00:24:30.180 put any of this together

00:24:31.600 for me.

00:24:32.240 None of it makes sense.

00:24:33.400 It only makes sense

00:24:34.140 that the Wall Street Journal

00:24:35.140 is writing hippies.

00:24:36.220 All right,

00:24:38.460 moving on.

00:24:39.380 University of Utah

00:24:40.320 is removing

00:24:42.940 any DEI questions

00:24:44.940 and statements

00:24:45.640 because the government

00:24:47.820 of Utah said to.

00:24:49.980 And they're just getting

00:24:51.200 out of the DEI business,

00:24:52.900 apparently,

00:24:53.520 in University of Utah.

00:24:56.180 So,

00:24:57.360 let me ask you this.

00:24:59.900 Is the trend for DEI

00:25:01.660 certainly for less of it

00:25:04.440 or do you think

00:25:05.000 it's still expanding?

00:25:07.120 Do you think

00:25:07.560 there's more of it

00:25:08.360 or less of it

00:25:09.020 in the coming year?

00:25:11.020 I think it might be

00:25:12.380 bifurcated.

00:25:14.380 I think there might be

00:25:15.380 some really blue places

00:25:16.880 that get more of it,

00:25:18.180 but the red states

00:25:19.860 are definitely

00:25:20.360 getting rid of it.

00:25:21.940 Now,

00:25:22.140 what do you make

00:25:22.600 of the fact

00:25:23.120 that there's

00:25:24.020 a thing

00:25:25.600 that some states

00:25:27.220 think is so dangerous

00:25:28.320 it's illegal

00:25:29.060 and other states

00:25:30.820 say,

00:25:31.140 oh,

00:25:31.300 we need more of this?

00:25:33.480 It's almost like

00:25:34.460 some states

00:25:35.180 are passing a law

00:25:36.900 that says

00:25:37.280 you have to eat sugar

00:25:38.420 and other states

00:25:40.420 are passing laws

00:25:41.380 that say,

00:25:41.760 stay away from sugar,

00:25:42.660 it's bad for you.

00:25:44.260 And they both exist

00:25:45.460 at the same time.

00:25:46.340 Now,

00:25:48.460 I like the fact

00:25:49.920 that our 50 states

00:25:50.880 could be like

00:25:51.400 laboratories

00:25:52.140 for the republic,

00:25:53.740 but that doesn't

00:25:55.040 make any sense.

00:25:56.480 If there's a substantial

00:25:57.800 number of states

00:25:58.920 who say doing this

00:26:00.200 is actually bad for you

00:26:01.720 while other states

00:26:03.580 are saying it's good for you

00:26:04.800 and really,

00:26:05.360 really good for you,

00:26:06.400 I think we ought to

00:26:07.880 maybe come together

00:26:09.500 and have a convention

00:26:10.320 and hash that out.

00:26:12.580 Maybe that's not something

00:26:13.720 we should compete on.

00:26:16.340 Well,

00:26:17.360 Trump makes news again

00:26:19.160 for allegedly mocking

00:26:21.840 John McCain's

00:26:22.840 injuries from the war.

00:26:26.800 When he was talking

00:26:27.840 about Obamacare vote

00:26:29.600 and how John McCain

00:26:31.180 surprised people

00:26:32.760 by giving the thumbs down,

00:26:35.780 Trump said,

00:26:37.320 John McCain,

00:26:37.980 for some reason,

00:26:38.680 couldn't get his arm up

00:26:39.580 that day.

00:26:40.080 I remember a time

00:26:44.300 when this would be

00:26:45.940 big news

00:26:47.260 and everybody would be

00:26:50.600 shocked and offended.

00:26:53.000 It doesn't feel like that

00:26:54.480 anymore, does it?

00:26:57.020 Because once you know

00:26:58.220 Trump's act,

00:26:59.920 you just know he says

00:27:01.360 outrageous things

00:27:02.260 about his critics

00:27:03.340 and you just go,

00:27:04.820 oh, it's just part of the show.

00:27:05.700 I mean,

00:27:07.500 I think he's passed

00:27:08.540 into Don Rickles territory.

00:27:11.920 I was hearing yesterday

00:27:13.460 yet another story

00:27:15.060 about now deceased

00:27:16.620 comedian Don Rickles

00:27:18.480 whose entire show

00:27:19.980 was about insulting

00:27:21.600 people in the audience

00:27:22.700 and famous people.

00:27:24.380 He would just insult people.

00:27:25.900 Now, if you were

00:27:26.560 to just walk up somebody

00:27:27.420 and insult them,

00:27:28.980 they would be

00:27:29.480 quite mad.

00:27:30.240 But if your brand

00:27:32.280 becomes the

00:27:33.460 I'm the insult person,

00:27:35.020 you become Don Rickles,

00:27:36.780 then you can say anything.

00:27:38.500 Because people say,

00:27:39.260 oh, I get it.

00:27:39.740 It's just part of the show.

00:27:41.200 I think Trump

00:27:42.880 has sort of

00:27:45.020 drifted into

00:27:46.320 the Don Rickles

00:27:47.480 frame

00:27:48.780 where he can just

00:27:50.460 say this

00:27:52.200 about John McCain's

00:27:54.640 war injury

00:27:55.260 and people just

00:27:56.480 shrug it off.

00:27:58.220 I don't think

00:27:59.160 it's going to be

00:27:59.580 a headline.

00:28:00.240 Well, it's a headline.

00:28:01.640 I don't think anybody cares.

00:28:03.180 I think it will change

00:28:04.200 zero votes

00:28:05.420 because it's McCain.

00:28:09.260 Trump is really good

00:28:10.780 about not going after

00:28:12.080 innocent citizens

00:28:13.700 and voters

00:28:14.320 who are minding

00:28:14.980 their own business

00:28:15.720 as opposed to

00:28:17.680 Dementia Hitler

00:28:18.520 who wants you to know

00:28:20.120 that MAGA people

00:28:21.000 are definitely bad

00:28:21.980 to the core.

00:28:23.680 Trump doesn't do that.

00:28:25.760 Compare these two things.

00:28:27.960 Trump mocking

00:28:28.840 the war injuries

00:28:29.900 of one character

00:28:32.360 who many people

00:28:33.860 in the country

00:28:34.320 who agree with Trump

00:28:35.240 think is despicable

00:28:36.820 and has gotten us

00:28:38.240 into wars

00:28:39.760 we didn't need

00:28:40.380 to be in

00:28:40.780 and whatnot.

00:28:44.740 Compare that

00:28:45.820 to Biden

00:28:47.820 giving a speech

00:28:48.760 saying that

00:28:49.340 the MAGA people

00:28:50.060 are insurrectionist

00:28:51.240 supporters.

00:28:52.580 which one's worse?

00:28:55.500 I would say

00:28:56.300 Dementia Hitler

00:28:57.040 is way worse.

00:28:59.080 Now, on an individual level

00:29:00.660 Trump was worse

00:29:02.020 but it's worse

00:29:02.640 against a critic.

00:29:05.960 I don't know.

00:29:06.460 Saying bad things

00:29:07.080 about a critic

00:29:07.640 is just sort of

00:29:08.380 business as usual.

00:29:11.040 But saying bad things

00:29:12.300 about your public

00:29:13.200 if you're the president

00:29:14.180 is really,

00:29:15.660 really,

00:29:16.060 really bad.

00:29:16.760 I don't approve

00:29:18.540 of either one.

00:29:19.680 Just,

00:29:20.780 you know,

00:29:21.060 if you're saying

00:29:21.680 why are you approving

00:29:22.880 of Trump

00:29:24.300 making fun

00:29:25.480 of somebody's disability?

00:29:26.800 I'm not approving it.

00:29:28.260 I'm just saying

00:29:29.100 I understand it

00:29:29.880 as part of the show.

00:29:30.660 so it doesn't bother me

00:29:33.120 in any way whatsoever.

00:29:36.100 So here's my theme

00:29:37.320 for today.

00:29:38.820 Everything's corrupt

00:29:39.580 and it's obvious.

00:29:42.160 Everything's corrupt

00:29:42.960 and it's obvious.

00:29:44.180 So in the following stories

00:29:46.500 you can see that theme.

00:29:48.180 So I was reading

00:29:48.880 the publication

00:29:49.940 The Hill

00:29:50.520 and I noticed

00:29:52.220 that they use

00:29:53.060 insurrection

00:29:54.080 when talking about

00:29:55.440 January 6th

00:29:56.840 as though it's

00:29:57.520 a proven fact.

00:29:59.540 In other words

00:30:00.140 they don't soften it

00:30:01.380 by saying

00:30:01.920 some call it

00:30:03.180 an insurrection.

00:30:05.760 You know,

00:30:06.000 some have called

00:30:06.680 some have branded it.

00:30:08.200 What they don't say

00:30:09.080 is that no court

00:30:10.020 has found it

00:30:10.780 was an insurrection

00:30:11.660 which is true

00:30:13.060 no court has

00:30:13.800 but they don't say that.

00:30:15.200 They just read

00:30:16.180 an article

00:30:16.580 and they say

00:30:17.400 the insurrection

00:30:19.600 brought an overwhelming

00:30:20.740 bipartisan disapproval

00:30:22.300 from Americans.

00:30:23.620 Just the insurrection.

00:30:26.040 Not the protest

00:30:27.360 that some people

00:30:28.780 said was an insurrection.

00:30:31.140 But the insurrection.

00:30:33.460 Now I ask you

00:30:34.260 is this a sign

00:30:35.200 that the press

00:30:36.200 is clearly corrupt?

00:30:39.240 I think so.

00:30:40.840 For the press

00:30:41.860 to write insurrection

00:30:43.020 when clearly

00:30:43.900 the evidence

00:30:44.540 is 100% against it

00:30:46.920 and then just

00:30:48.580 to treat it

00:30:49.100 like it's such a fact

00:30:50.220 that you don't even

00:30:51.520 need to explain it

00:30:52.560 or put any caveats

00:30:53.920 you don't need

00:30:54.420 to put it in quotes

00:30:55.340 it's just a fact.

00:30:56.820 Now how is that

00:30:59.240 different

00:30:59.720 from Trump

00:31:01.780 saying that

00:31:02.320 the 2020 election

00:31:03.440 was rigged?

00:31:04.980 What did people say

00:31:06.440 when Trump says

00:31:07.380 2020 was rigged?

00:31:10.140 Everybody

00:31:10.700 everybody said

00:31:11.920 no court

00:31:12.800 showed it was rigged.

00:31:15.140 No court

00:31:16.180 showed it was rigged.

00:31:17.480 Guess what?

00:31:18.140 No court

00:31:18.940 has shown

00:31:20.300 it was an insurrection.

00:31:21.280 Well at least

00:31:23.480 he's not been

00:31:24.220 accused of insurrection.

00:31:26.220 There was a court

00:31:27.080 that just sort of

00:31:28.040 said there was

00:31:28.800 an insurrection

00:31:29.300 but there hasn't

00:31:30.540 been a trial

00:31:31.180 on the question

00:31:31.960 of whether

00:31:32.340 it was an insurrection.

00:31:33.740 So why is it

00:31:34.440 that a trial

00:31:36.420 is necessary

00:31:37.180 when you're saying

00:31:37.960 the election

00:31:38.820 was rigged?

00:31:40.860 You can't say

00:31:41.580 that unless

00:31:42.020 it was a trial

00:31:42.600 but you can say

00:31:43.700 it was an insurrection

00:31:44.780 when there's no

00:31:46.300 court finding

00:31:46.980 of anything

00:31:48.140 of the sort.

00:31:49.800 That's corruption.

00:31:50.680 So this is a

00:31:52.120 corrupt publication

00:31:53.240 in my opinion.

00:31:56.240 How bad

00:31:57.040 was the insurrection?

00:31:58.460 Well on the same

00:31:59.300 day yesterday

00:32:00.060 that an MSNBC

00:32:02.020 host cried

00:32:03.480 on the air

00:32:04.260 when hearing

00:32:05.300 how horrible

00:32:05.960 January 6th was.

00:32:07.620 That's right.

00:32:08.300 He had to take

00:32:08.860 out the tissue

00:32:09.480 because he was

00:32:10.620 crying on the air

00:32:11.860 about all the

00:32:12.960 violence and

00:32:13.620 terribleness

00:32:14.100 of the day.

00:32:15.720 At the same time

00:32:16.760 I'm reading

00:32:18.420 a post

00:32:19.600 from

00:32:20.260 the blue

00:32:21.660 collar

00:32:21.960 intellectual

00:32:22.520 podcast

00:32:23.260 Julian

00:32:24.040 is his

00:32:24.600 name

00:32:24.820 and

00:32:26.140 he

00:32:27.240 posted

00:32:27.880 this

00:32:28.360 happy

00:32:29.360 J6

00:32:30.140 to everyone

00:32:30.700 losing

00:32:31.100 their minds

00:32:31.720 I've had

00:32:32.860 sex more

00:32:33.500 violent

00:32:33.920 than this

00:32:34.400 insurrection

00:32:34.940 insurrection.

00:32:35.940 Y'all are

00:32:37.280 ridiculous for

00:32:38.140 trying to

00:32:38.540 take Trump

00:32:39.000 off the

00:32:39.360 ballot

00:32:39.580 for this.

00:32:42.720 I've had

00:32:43.500 sex more

00:32:44.100 violent

00:32:44.500 than this

00:32:45.000 insurrection.

00:32:48.480 Now that's

00:32:49.240 one of the

00:32:49.620 funniest things

00:32:50.300 I've heard

00:32:50.720 about.

00:32:51.960 I've had

00:32:52.700 sex more

00:32:53.280 violent

00:32:53.620 than this

00:32:54.120 insurrection.

00:32:55.680 Now that's

00:32:56.300 some good

00:32:56.680 mocking.

00:32:58.180 Now I've

00:32:58.480 told you

00:32:58.840 you need to

00:33:00.120 mock this.

00:33:03.040 The January

00:33:03.460 6th thing

00:33:04.100 should be

00:33:05.280 not denied

00:33:06.240 just mocked

00:33:08.140 because it's

00:33:08.520 so fucking

00:33:08.940 stupid.

00:33:09.900 This is some

00:33:10.420 good mockery.

00:33:11.280 I've had

00:33:11.500 sex more

00:33:12.780 violent.

00:33:15.080 Well the

00:33:15.840 Hill who

00:33:16.720 we've already

00:33:17.180 determined is a

00:33:17.980 piece of shit

00:33:18.560 is also

00:33:19.920 reporting that

00:33:20.640 the

00:33:20.940 triple

00:33:22.020 demic is

00:33:22.760 surging

00:33:23.160 and there

00:33:24.300 are fears

00:33:24.700 of it.

00:33:25.060 Are you

00:33:27.420 all worried

00:33:27.820 about the

00:33:28.160 triple demic?

00:33:30.100 Is there

00:33:30.740 even one

00:33:31.280 person here

00:33:31.980 who's all

00:33:33.160 worried about

00:33:33.680 the triple

00:33:34.140 demic?

00:33:35.160 You know

00:33:35.520 the flu

00:33:36.260 and the

00:33:36.860 COVID and

00:33:37.540 I don't

00:33:37.980 know what

00:33:38.240 the third

00:33:38.600 thing is.

00:33:39.740 You're all

00:33:40.100 worried right?

00:33:41.320 Oh we're

00:33:42.100 so worried.

00:33:43.400 I'm so

00:33:43.960 worried I

00:33:44.760 I changed

00:33:47.880 all of my

00:33:48.520 all of my

00:33:50.000 life over

00:33:50.540 it.

00:33:51.320 Nope.

00:33:52.180 Didn't do

00:33:52.580 anything

00:33:52.840 differently.

00:33:53.960 I didn't do

00:33:54.380 anything

00:33:54.640 differently.

00:33:55.400 Did you?

00:33:56.420 I can't

00:33:57.100 think of

00:33:57.380 anything I

00:33:57.940 did differently

00:33:58.460 because there

00:33:59.060 was a

00:33:59.340 triple demic.

00:34:00.860 Oh but

00:34:01.320 they got a

00:34:01.720 word for

00:34:02.140 it.

00:34:02.700 It's a

00:34:03.040 triple demic.

00:34:04.260 Now do

00:34:04.580 you think

00:34:04.920 that the

00:34:05.320 Hill wrote

00:34:05.820 this article

00:34:06.480 because this

00:34:07.600 is newsworthy

00:34:08.680 and interesting

00:34:09.380 or because

00:34:10.580 it has a

00:34:11.200 political

00:34:11.640 dimension to

00:34:12.420 it?

00:34:13.780 Well I

00:34:15.260 don't know.

00:34:16.500 Makes you

00:34:16.860 wonder.

00:34:17.840 If they

00:34:18.160 hadn't called

00:34:18.680 it an

00:34:18.980 insurrection I

00:34:19.880 might have

00:34:20.280 given them

00:34:20.780 the benefit

00:34:21.200 of a doubt.

00:34:22.660 But when

00:34:23.360 you do

00:34:23.660 something that's

00:34:24.340 clearly biased

00:34:25.500 and political

00:34:26.100 then I

00:34:27.540 say maybe

00:34:28.300 I can

00:34:28.620 extend that

00:34:29.160 to your

00:34:29.440 other coverage.

00:34:30.900 Wouldn't

00:34:31.160 that be

00:34:31.460 fair?

00:34:33.680 Well let's

00:34:34.360 talk about

00:34:34.840 President Biden

00:34:35.740 and his

00:34:36.420 dementia

00:34:38.620 Hitler

00:34:39.100 tentpole

00:34:39.820 hoax.

00:34:40.280 he said

00:34:43.040 that three

00:34:43.400 years ago

00:34:43.960 a violent

00:34:44.500 mob

00:34:44.960 fueled by

00:34:45.680 lies

00:34:46.220 attacked

00:34:46.660 the U.S.

00:34:47.240 capital.

00:34:48.320 Our

00:34:48.440 democracy

00:34:49.040 was tested

00:34:49.880 but it

00:34:50.700 held because

00:34:51.340 we the

00:34:51.740 people

00:34:52.040 prevailed.

00:34:54.060 Now what

00:34:54.440 I see

00:34:54.920 is a

00:34:55.820 Hitler

00:34:56.460 like

00:34:56.960 anti-

00:34:57.460 democratic

00:34:58.040 guy

00:34:58.460 who's

00:34:59.200 keeping

00:34:59.520 his

00:35:00.100 trying to

00:35:01.120 keep his

00:35:01.900 opponent

00:35:02.240 off the

00:35:02.740 ballot

00:35:03.060 trying to

00:35:04.080 or his

00:35:04.540 party is

00:35:05.100 doing

00:35:06.720 massive

00:35:07.280 work to

00:35:08.020 decrease

00:35:08.540 free speech

00:35:09.380 and to

00:35:11.180 jail their

00:35:11.780 opponents.

00:35:13.600 Dementia

00:35:14.060 Hitler

00:35:14.320 and he

00:35:15.900 has the

00:35:16.300 nerve

00:35:16.760 to not

00:35:18.360 only promote

00:35:19.220 this hoax

00:35:19.800 for his

00:35:20.160 presidency

00:35:20.600 but he

00:35:22.120 says

00:35:22.480 the

00:35:23.640 republic

00:35:24.380 held

00:35:24.740 because

00:35:25.120 we the

00:35:25.520 people

00:35:25.840 prevailed.

00:35:28.100 I'm

00:35:28.780 pretty sure

00:35:29.220 that we

00:35:29.580 the people

00:35:30.060 were the

00:35:30.440 protesters.

00:35:32.320 Well let's

00:35:33.240 get that

00:35:33.640 straight.

00:35:34.560 We the

00:35:35.140 people

00:35:35.500 was the

00:35:37.600 protesters.

00:35:39.380 we not

00:35:40.020 the

00:35:40.200 people

00:35:40.540 was the

00:35:41.280 government

00:35:41.640 they were

00:35:42.040 protesting

00:35:42.560 because

00:35:44.700 they're not

00:35:45.160 the people.

00:35:46.520 I mean

00:35:46.920 that's

00:35:47.140 basically

00:35:47.560 the

00:35:47.940 protest

00:35:48.500 is that

00:35:49.060 the

00:35:49.240 government

00:35:49.580 was not

00:35:50.220 being

00:35:51.360 responsive

00:35:51.860 to the

00:35:52.200 people.

00:35:52.980 So no

00:35:53.260 we the

00:35:53.700 people

00:35:54.000 is who

00:35:54.460 the

00:35:55.100 protesters

00:35:55.580 were.

00:35:56.540 Let's

00:35:56.780 get that

00:35:57.120 part

00:35:57.280 straight.

00:35:58.200 So yes

00:35:58.660 we do

00:35:59.480 have a

00:36:00.040 dementia

00:36:00.620 president

00:36:01.140 and his

00:36:02.520 tentpole

00:36:03.180 hoax

00:36:03.660 is going

00:36:04.480 to be

00:36:04.640 January

00:36:05.020 6th.

00:36:05.720 So

00:36:05.840 they're

00:36:06.620 now

00:36:06.900 firmly

00:36:07.320 in the

00:36:07.740 narrow

00:36:08.020 ravine.

00:36:08.620 and let

00:36:10.360 your

00:36:10.520 mockery

00:36:11.020 cannons

00:36:11.460 go.

00:36:14.860 Jonathan

00:36:15.460 Turley

00:36:15.860 points out

00:36:16.460 that over

00:36:17.240 half of

00:36:17.720 the states

00:36:18.120 are calling

00:36:18.580 on the

00:36:18.920 courts

00:36:19.260 to reject

00:36:20.540 Trump's

00:36:21.340 disqualification

00:36:22.500 to be on

00:36:23.300 the ballot.

00:36:24.940 So more

00:36:26.000 than half

00:36:26.380 of the states

00:36:26.880 are saying

00:36:27.300 it should

00:36:28.780 be illegal

00:36:29.680 or at least

00:36:30.300 unwise

00:36:31.080 to keep

00:36:31.920 them off

00:36:32.240 the ballot.

00:36:34.000 Which means

00:36:34.940 that over

00:36:35.780 half of

00:36:36.180 Americans

00:36:36.580 oppose this

00:36:37.400 effort

00:36:37.780 to keep

00:36:39.460 them

00:36:39.600 off.

00:36:40.760 But

00:36:40.960 does

00:36:41.440 dementia

00:36:41.980 Hitler

00:36:43.120 care?

00:36:44.320 No,

00:36:44.520 dementia

00:36:44.860 Hitler

00:36:45.180 is going

00:36:46.360 to do

00:36:46.840 something

00:36:47.200 that more

00:36:47.600 than half

00:36:48.080 of the

00:36:48.320 public

00:36:48.580 doesn't

00:36:48.920 want.

00:36:52.140 We had

00:36:53.100 the

00:36:53.300 34-minute

00:36:54.400 glitch

00:36:54.760 again.

00:36:55.800 Still

00:36:56.120 don't know

00:36:56.440 what that

00:36:56.720 is.

00:36:57.900 So yeah,

00:36:59.000 that's a

00:36:59.840 pretty big

00:37:00.220 sign of

00:37:00.640 corruption,

00:37:01.320 trying to

00:37:01.640 keep your

00:37:01.980 opponent

00:37:02.280 off.

00:37:03.360 How about

00:37:03.680 that pipe

00:37:04.240 bomber story?

00:37:05.300 Remember

00:37:05.600 that?

00:37:06.280 January 6th

00:37:07.080 pipe bomber?

00:37:08.180 It's a

00:37:08.520 good thing

00:37:08.860 we now

00:37:09.260 have all

00:37:09.760 the

00:37:09.900 information

00:37:10.360 about that,

00:37:10.980 isn't it?

00:37:11.820 To which

00:37:12.240 you're saying,

00:37:13.140 what?

00:37:14.440 I don't

00:37:15.060 know about

00:37:15.460 that story

00:37:16.000 or I

00:37:16.400 forget about

00:37:16.900 it.

00:37:17.600 Well,

00:37:18.100 Vivek Ramaswamy

00:37:19.120 reminds us

00:37:20.000 in Truth

00:37:20.920 Number 9,

00:37:21.700 part of his

00:37:22.180 series,

00:37:22.680 he says,

00:37:23.860 pipe bombs

00:37:24.520 were placed

00:37:25.080 near the

00:37:25.460 DNC and

00:37:26.060 RNC

00:37:26.480 headquarters

00:37:26.920 on January

00:37:27.580 5th

00:37:28.860 in 2021

00:37:29.600 with many

00:37:32.020 irregularities,

00:37:32.940 including Kamala Harris

00:37:33.940 showing up at the

00:37:34.700 DNC headquarters

00:37:35.520 on the morning

00:37:36.080 of January 6th

00:37:37.400 without Secret

00:37:38.240 Service or any

00:37:39.120 law enforcement

00:37:39.740 spotting the

00:37:40.520 pipe bombs.

00:37:42.200 So that's a big

00:37:43.280 question.

00:37:43.720 Why wouldn't they

00:37:44.180 spot them?

00:37:44.780 Because apparently

00:37:45.360 they weren't well

00:37:46.160 hidden.

00:37:47.020 They were not

00:37:47.380 well hidden.

00:37:48.340 Only for both

00:37:49.000 pipe bombs to be

00:37:49.840 found later on

00:37:50.500 January 6th.

00:37:52.080 Yeah, strangely,

00:37:52.940 the government

00:37:53.300 still hasn't said

00:37:54.120 a peep about

00:37:55.180 the perp.

00:37:56.320 Despite

00:37:56.720 available

00:37:57.320 surveillance footage

00:37:58.500 of the pipe

00:37:59.140 bomber, which has

00:38:00.620 not been fully

00:38:01.420 released,

00:38:02.600 why not?

00:38:03.780 a CBS reporter

00:38:05.480 recently exposed

00:38:06.220 the DOJ's

00:38:07.120 notable silence

00:38:08.280 on this

00:38:08.600 investigation.

00:38:10.140 What really

00:38:10.640 happened?

00:38:11.220 Yes.

00:38:12.640 Does this

00:38:13.100 sound like,

00:38:14.800 oh, just

00:38:15.480 some little

00:38:15.940 mystery criminal

00:38:16.880 thing?

00:38:17.720 Or does it

00:38:18.540 sound like the

00:38:19.060 government is

00:38:19.640 covering up

00:38:20.260 something that

00:38:20.840 looks like an

00:38:22.240 op?

00:38:23.600 It looks corrupt.

00:38:25.500 It looks like the

00:38:26.240 government's covering

00:38:26.980 something up.

00:38:28.060 I don't know for

00:38:28.800 sure, but in the

00:38:30.080 context of all the

00:38:31.020 other fuckery, it's

00:38:33.060 reasonable to assume

00:38:34.200 what Vivek is

00:38:35.440 assuming, that

00:38:37.120 there's something

00:38:37.760 here, there's the

00:38:39.420 lack of transparency.

00:38:41.260 A lack of

00:38:41.840 transparency from a

00:38:43.080 government entity

00:38:43.940 allows you to

00:38:45.220 assume guilt, which

00:38:47.620 you should not

00:38:48.140 assume for a

00:38:48.760 human, like an

00:38:49.760 individual citizen.

00:38:51.060 Assume innocence

00:38:51.620 for people, assume

00:38:53.200 guilt for your

00:38:54.400 non-transparent

00:38:55.300 government.

00:38:55.960 Mike Cernovich

00:38:59.100 posted this

00:39:00.000 asking, is

00:39:01.000 America the only

00:39:01.740 country where you

00:39:02.480 don't know election

00:39:03.240 results for weeks

00:39:04.180 and are assured

00:39:05.240 this is normal and

00:39:06.160 not corrupt at

00:39:06.880 all?

00:39:09.420 What if it's as

00:39:10.680 obvious as it

00:39:11.460 looks?

00:39:12.460 Why are we the

00:39:13.080 only country that

00:39:13.860 can't counter

00:39:14.360 votes the same

00:39:15.140 day?

00:39:16.340 I can only think

00:39:17.340 of one reason,

00:39:19.260 and it's not

00:39:19.840 incompetence.

00:39:21.080 Because

00:39:21.560 incompetence has

00:39:22.940 largely been driven

00:39:23.960 out of the system

00:39:24.760 by doing the

00:39:25.920 same election

00:39:26.600 year after year

00:39:27.380 after year with

00:39:28.260 people who know

00:39:29.020 what they're doing.

00:39:29.940 So I don't think

00:39:30.720 it's incompetence.

00:39:32.860 It has to be

00:39:33.800 planned.

00:39:35.600 It has to be

00:39:36.560 designed that way.

00:39:37.980 Otherwise, you

00:39:38.560 don't get it.

00:39:39.640 Because you can

00:39:40.180 design it out

00:39:41.100 easily.

00:39:41.880 Other countries

00:39:42.440 do it easily.

00:39:43.520 It's not even a

00:39:44.220 challenge, really.

00:39:46.160 There's no

00:39:46.760 challenge to it.

00:39:47.540 We just don't

00:39:48.800 do it.

00:39:50.260 And everybody

00:39:51.120 in the country,

00:39:52.540 Democrat,

00:39:53.320 Independent,

00:39:54.080 Republican,

00:39:54.480 everybody knows

00:39:55.640 that your

00:39:56.800 credibility of

00:39:57.840 your system

00:39:58.500 degrades with

00:40:00.040 every hour you

00:40:00.820 delay the

00:40:01.480 final count.

00:40:02.740 Everybody knows

00:40:03.360 that.

00:40:03.780 It's just obvious.

00:40:04.620 Common sense.

00:40:06.140 So if it's

00:40:06.860 obvious it's a

00:40:07.660 terrible, terrible,

00:40:08.380 terrible thing for

00:40:09.400 the Republic,

00:40:10.440 why don't we

00:40:11.000 fix it?

00:40:12.720 There's only

00:40:13.580 one reason.

00:40:14.740 Corruption.

00:40:16.840 I can't think

00:40:17.740 of a second

00:40:18.160 reason.

00:40:19.260 Like, even if

00:40:19.860 you assume that

00:40:20.500 the country has

00:40:21.100 become terribly

00:40:21.880 incompetent,

00:40:22.820 incompetent, they

00:40:23.820 would at least

00:40:24.420 be trying.

00:40:26.600 Am I right?

00:40:28.140 Even if you

00:40:28.800 assume incompetence

00:40:29.840 is the problem,

00:40:31.220 they would at

00:40:31.760 least be

00:40:32.260 conspicuously

00:40:33.100 trying to fix

00:40:34.380 it.

00:40:35.120 But that's not

00:40:35.880 happening, is

00:40:37.220 it?

00:40:38.700 I don't know.

00:40:39.100 Maybe in some

00:40:39.640 states they may

00:40:40.520 have tweaked

00:40:41.100 some things.

00:40:42.220 But if it

00:40:43.360 happens again,

00:40:45.080 if this election

00:40:46.860 is another one

00:40:47.640 where we don't

00:40:48.160 know the results

00:40:48.740 for days, you

00:40:49.600 have to assume

00:40:50.300 it's rigged.

00:40:51.480 You just have

00:40:52.100 to.

00:40:53.380 Why else?

00:40:57.620 California has

00:40:59.180 declared that the

00:41:01.200 state health

00:41:01.800 insurance will

00:41:02.400 cover sex

00:41:03.180 change operations

00:41:04.160 for illegal

00:41:04.940 immigrants.

00:41:06.380 So not only

00:41:07.360 can you come to

00:41:08.100 America and get

00:41:09.440 health care, but

00:41:10.520 they will change

00:41:11.080 your gender if

00:41:11.760 you ask.

00:41:12.600 Now, I just

00:41:15.180 think that that's

00:41:17.100 so close to a

00:41:19.640 perfect law.

00:41:20.480 But you

00:41:21.840 know, some

00:41:22.220 things, you

00:41:23.060 know, close

00:41:24.240 only counts

00:41:24.840 in horseshoes

00:41:25.620 and hand

00:41:25.940 granines.

00:41:26.460 You know, they

00:41:26.720 say being

00:41:27.620 close is still

00:41:28.560 a fail.

00:41:29.500 And when I

00:41:29.900 say it's close

00:41:30.720 to being a

00:41:31.240 perfect policy,

00:41:32.980 instead of

00:41:33.640 covering sex

00:41:34.780 change for illegal

00:41:35.660 immigrants, I

00:41:36.860 would make just

00:41:37.740 the smallest

00:41:38.300 tweak to this.

00:41:39.900 Just the smallest

00:41:40.680 tweak.

00:41:41.080 I keep it just

00:41:41.680 the way it is

00:41:42.260 with the smallest

00:41:43.740 little adjustment.

00:41:45.220 I'd make it

00:41:46.000 mandatory.

00:41:46.520 Okay.

00:41:50.480 Yeah.

00:41:52.280 That's how I'd

00:41:53.120 play it.

00:41:54.360 You'd end

00:41:54.760 immigration in

00:41:55.720 about 10

00:41:56.620 minutes.

00:41:57.560 You may come

00:41:58.480 into the

00:41:58.820 country under

00:41:59.420 asylum.

00:42:00.460 We'll be

00:42:01.200 altering your

00:42:01.820 gender.

00:42:03.980 And it's

00:42:04.700 mandatory.

00:42:06.140 Just make it

00:42:07.000 mandatory.

00:42:07.560 We can solve

00:42:08.080 this whole thing.

00:42:10.160 And, you know,

00:42:10.700 the best part is

00:42:11.360 you wouldn't

00:42:12.160 really have to

00:42:13.040 surgically alter

00:42:14.320 all of them.

00:42:16.020 You could do

00:42:16.880 three or four

00:42:17.600 and you would

00:42:18.020 end the entire

00:42:18.640 immigration problem.

00:42:20.480 Am I right?

00:42:22.500 Because I think

00:42:23.240 people notice a

00:42:24.040 pattern.

00:42:24.800 It's like,

00:42:25.240 wait, how many?

00:42:26.320 Three.

00:42:27.020 We're just

00:42:27.540 getting started.

00:42:29.720 Okay, I'm

00:42:30.340 out.

00:42:32.460 Three would be

00:42:33.240 enough.

00:42:34.140 Three would be

00:42:34.620 enough.

00:42:35.080 No, I'm just

00:42:35.840 kidding.

00:42:37.080 I'm joking.

00:42:38.280 Don't get too

00:42:38.860 serious.

00:42:41.780 Speaking of

00:42:42.420 Cernovecci,

00:42:42.960 also had a good

00:42:43.660 point about

00:42:44.280 how the

00:42:45.680 Congress members

00:42:47.740 are underpaid

00:42:49.420 relative to

00:42:51.320 what we're

00:42:51.940 asking them

00:42:52.440 to do.

00:42:53.440 So $174,000

00:42:54.700 a year

00:42:55.320 to live

00:42:56.880 away from

00:42:57.360 your family

00:42:57.940 and have

00:42:59.240 like separate

00:43:00.080 quarters.

00:43:01.320 So you're

00:43:01.700 supporting your

00:43:02.260 family back

00:43:02.960 where your

00:43:03.280 family is,

00:43:04.520 but you also

00:43:04.980 have to support

00:43:05.660 yourself in

00:43:06.340 a, at least

00:43:07.660 a lifestyle

00:43:08.200 that makes

00:43:08.820 it seem

00:43:09.460 credible that

00:43:10.160 you're an

00:43:10.580 elected official

00:43:11.360 in D.C.,

00:43:12.660 which is

00:43:13.080 really expensive

00:43:13.920 and $174,000

00:43:16.080 a year sounds

00:43:16.820 like a lot

00:43:17.420 to a lot

00:43:17.980 of people,

00:43:18.900 but it's

00:43:19.200 not really

00:43:19.760 a lot

00:43:20.160 in that

00:43:21.100 context

00:43:21.720 because you'd

00:43:22.760 have two

00:43:23.240 homes.

00:43:24.660 Now,

00:43:25.540 Joshua Lysak

00:43:26.740 added to

00:43:27.400 that,

00:43:28.880 famous ghost

00:43:30.200 writer,

00:43:31.140 Joshua Lysak,

00:43:32.600 and I'll

00:43:33.820 read what he

00:43:34.200 said.

00:43:34.420 He said,

00:43:34.700 Congressional

00:43:35.180 salaries need

00:43:35.900 to be in

00:43:36.420 the millions

00:43:36.820 of dollars

00:43:37.460 or zero.

00:43:40.220 It needs

00:43:40.920 to be millions

00:43:41.660 of dollars

00:43:42.140 to pay

00:43:42.540 or zero.

00:43:44.700 And here's

00:43:45.100 the argument.

00:43:46.340 A lukewarm

00:43:47.100 $174,000

00:43:48.260 per year

00:43:48.620 means you

00:43:49.040 need to

00:43:49.320 earn your

00:43:49.660 fortune

00:43:50.000 through other

00:43:50.700 means in

00:43:51.240 D.C.

00:43:52.940 And you

00:43:53.540 need leadership

00:43:54.200 where we're

00:43:54.480 financially

00:43:54.880 independent

00:43:55.340 and free.

00:43:56.320 Now,

00:43:56.640 does that

00:43:56.920 strike a

00:43:58.300 chord?

00:43:59.380 It really

00:44:00.140 does,

00:44:00.620 doesn't it?

00:44:02.020 Because if

00:44:02.740 you tell me

00:44:03.460 that you put

00:44:04.780 all these

00:44:05.240 people who

00:44:06.180 have, let's

00:44:07.080 say they're

00:44:07.420 aggressive

00:44:07.840 enough that

00:44:09.120 they can run

00:44:09.620 for office

00:44:10.160 and win.

00:44:11.340 So you're

00:44:11.900 a certain

00:44:12.220 type of

00:44:12.800 alpha

00:44:13.280 aggressive

00:44:14.420 character.

00:44:15.100 And then

00:44:15.940 we guarantee

00:44:16.560 that you

00:44:16.980 can't make

00:44:17.520 enough money

00:44:18.000 to live

00:44:19.080 in comfort.

00:44:20.720 What are

00:44:21.380 you going

00:44:21.600 to do?

00:44:23.680 It's almost

00:44:24.440 like we're

00:44:24.860 begging them

00:44:25.420 to steal

00:44:25.880 from us.

00:44:27.060 You're

00:44:27.620 begging them

00:44:28.240 to steal

00:44:28.720 from the

00:44:29.140 public.

00:44:30.080 Because if

00:44:31.080 they don't,

00:44:32.500 they're doing

00:44:33.020 more work

00:44:33.640 than they're

00:44:33.980 getting paid

00:44:34.480 for.

00:44:36.460 That's what

00:44:37.160 makes people

00:44:37.720 steal.

00:44:38.960 They think

00:44:39.780 that their

00:44:40.780 situation is

00:44:41.480 not fair.

00:44:42.640 So I can

00:44:43.560 imagine you

00:44:44.100 could justify

00:44:44.820 it very

00:44:45.340 easily as

00:44:46.320 in, well,

00:44:48.500 you know,

00:44:48.900 I really

00:44:49.340 couldn't stay

00:44:49.920 in this

00:44:50.240 job and

00:44:50.920 I'm helping

00:44:51.400 people so

00:44:52.140 much in

00:44:52.740 my district

00:44:53.360 and I

00:44:54.260 really am

00:44:54.680 one of the

00:44:55.060 good guys.

00:44:56.440 So if I

00:44:57.720 allow this

00:44:58.360 project to

00:44:59.260 go forward

00:45:00.040 and I vote

00:45:00.600 for it,

00:45:01.900 it's a good

00:45:04.140 project anyway.

00:45:05.540 Hey, yeah,

00:45:06.400 maybe I was

00:45:07.000 bribed to

00:45:07.800 support it,

00:45:08.840 but you know

00:45:09.280 what?

00:45:09.500 I would have

00:45:10.000 supported it

00:45:10.600 anyway.

00:45:11.000 So you

00:45:12.060 can see

00:45:12.400 how easily

00:45:13.020 somebody can

00:45:14.260 talk themselves

00:45:14.920 into taking

00:45:15.560 a bribe

00:45:16.100 without calling

00:45:17.720 it a bribe.

00:45:18.860 So we put

00:45:19.900 these people

00:45:20.380 in this

00:45:20.640 situation,

00:45:21.840 which as

00:45:22.840 Joshua Lysak

00:45:24.800 points out,

00:45:26.380 we've designed

00:45:27.460 a system

00:45:28.160 for corruption,

00:45:29.880 not to

00:45:30.580 prevent it.

00:45:32.380 Remember,

00:45:33.160 design is

00:45:33.840 destiny.

00:45:34.440 You can look

00:45:34.880 at the design

00:45:35.600 of a thing

00:45:36.020 and determine

00:45:37.040 how it'll

00:45:37.580 go.

00:45:38.700 So if I

00:45:39.120 said to

00:45:39.500 you,

00:45:39.900 the government

00:45:40.320 doesn't exist,

00:45:41.140 I'm going to

00:45:41.480 design one

00:45:42.040 on paper,

00:45:42.980 and I'm

00:45:43.720 going to

00:45:43.860 have these

00:45:44.220 congresspeople

00:45:44.920 get elected,

00:45:45.640 they have

00:45:45.900 to live in

00:45:46.320 D.C.

00:45:46.720 away from

00:45:47.080 their families,

00:45:48.280 twice the

00:45:48.800 expense,

00:45:49.860 and we're

00:45:50.360 going to

00:45:50.540 pay them

00:45:51.020 just enough

00:45:51.700 to get

00:45:51.980 by.

00:45:53.060 Just enough.

00:45:55.020 What would

00:45:55.740 you say is

00:45:56.580 the likely

00:45:57.060 outcome of

00:45:57.680 that system?

00:45:58.960 By design.

00:46:00.540 That would

00:46:01.100 be a system

00:46:01.640 designed to

00:46:03.080 guarantee

00:46:03.680 corruption.

00:46:05.240 And it

00:46:05.600 looks like

00:46:05.940 that's what

00:46:06.280 we got.

00:46:07.840 Do you

00:46:08.300 know how

00:46:08.640 I know?

00:46:09.760 Because it's

00:46:10.500 designed to

00:46:12.200 guarantee

00:46:12.640 corruption.

00:46:15.120 Do you

00:46:15.360 know why I

00:46:16.280 think the

00:46:16.620 election is

00:46:17.460 almost certainly

00:46:18.280 rigged?

00:46:19.560 Or there's an

00:46:20.720 attempt to

00:46:21.220 rig it,

00:46:21.540 whether they

00:46:21.920 do it or

00:46:22.320 not?

00:46:23.220 It's because

00:46:23.820 their elections

00:46:24.440 are designed

00:46:25.460 to make it

00:46:26.760 hard to audit

00:46:27.400 them.

00:46:28.540 By design,

00:46:30.040 it's not an

00:46:30.780 accident.

00:46:32.120 You could

00:46:32.700 very easily

00:46:33.340 make a fully

00:46:34.040 auditable

00:46:34.520 system.

00:46:35.420 Just put it

00:46:35.960 all on paper

00:46:36.560 and have people

00:46:37.160 count it

00:46:37.540 twice.

00:46:38.620 Am I

00:46:39.160 wrong?

00:46:40.180 Put it

00:46:40.660 all on

00:46:40.960 paper and

00:46:42.460 then an

00:46:42.800 audit is

00:46:43.500 you count

00:46:43.880 it twice.

00:46:45.680 That's

00:46:45.960 about it.

00:46:47.600 So it's

00:46:48.140 easy to

00:46:48.600 design a

00:46:49.080 system that

00:46:49.640 has no

00:46:50.060 corruption or

00:46:51.280 it would be

00:46:51.700 hard to have

00:46:52.140 it, but we

00:46:53.200 didn't do

00:46:53.540 it.

00:46:54.080 What is

00:46:54.520 the logical

00:46:55.140 assumption?

00:46:56.600 It's

00:46:57.080 designed to

00:46:57.620 be corrupt

00:46:58.160 and moreover

00:46:59.300 you have to

00:47:00.020 assume that

00:47:00.460 both Democrats

00:47:01.160 and Republicans

00:47:01.820 are okay

00:47:02.340 with it.

00:47:03.080 Because I

00:47:03.640 don't see a

00:47:04.200 lot of

00:47:04.400 work going

00:47:05.320 on to

00:47:05.640 fix it.

00:47:06.020 You have

00:47:07.060 to assume

00:47:07.560 both sides

00:47:08.220 are in

00:47:08.500 on it.

00:47:09.880 Not every

00:47:10.660 person, but

00:47:12.300 certainly

00:47:12.640 powerful people

00:47:13.500 on both

00:47:13.900 sides.

00:47:16.360 Well,

00:47:17.000 Representative

00:47:17.560 Clay Higgins,

00:47:18.480 who now we

00:47:19.060 know is

00:47:19.340 underpaid,

00:47:20.640 was on

00:47:21.260 Tucker's

00:47:21.700 show.

00:47:22.980 And he

00:47:24.560 says he's

00:47:25.040 got more

00:47:25.400 information than

00:47:26.080 we do about

00:47:26.920 what happened

00:47:27.320 on January

00:47:27.800 6th.

00:47:28.880 And of

00:47:29.300 course, we

00:47:29.640 were reminded

00:47:30.280 in that

00:47:31.280 episode that

00:47:31.980 Christopher

00:47:32.480 Ray, the

00:47:32.940 head of the

00:47:33.240 FBI, would

00:47:34.360 not answer

00:47:35.020 the question

00:47:35.660 of how

00:47:36.800 many FBI

00:47:37.540 undercover

00:47:38.140 agents were

00:47:39.240 dressed like

00:47:39.880 Trump supporters

00:47:40.660 and attended

00:47:41.840 January 6th.

00:47:43.460 Now, what

00:47:44.100 do you assume

00:47:44.700 when the

00:47:45.020 head of the

00:47:45.360 FBI won't

00:47:46.200 answer the

00:47:46.740 question of

00:47:47.960 whether there

00:47:48.600 were any

00:47:49.120 and how

00:47:49.880 many?

00:47:51.160 You have

00:47:51.920 to assume

00:47:52.440 that the

00:47:54.440 answer to

00:47:54.860 that question

00:47:55.440 would be

00:47:55.960 embarrassing

00:47:56.440 to the

00:47:56.860 FBI.

00:47:59.300 What would

00:48:00.060 be an

00:48:00.400 embarrassing

00:48:00.800 number?

00:48:01.600 That they

00:48:02.280 didn't have

00:48:02.700 enough?

00:48:03.860 Well, it

00:48:04.180 could.

00:48:04.940 Maybe.

00:48:05.640 It is

00:48:06.160 possible he's

00:48:06.760 worried they

00:48:07.160 didn't have

00:48:07.480 enough undercover

00:48:08.160 agents.

00:48:09.420 But the

00:48:09.840 other possibility

00:48:10.520 seems far

00:48:11.300 more likely

00:48:11.760 is that they

00:48:13.260 had a lot

00:48:13.780 or what we

00:48:15.660 would think

00:48:16.120 would be a

00:48:16.540 lot, whatever

00:48:17.160 number that

00:48:18.120 is to you.

00:48:19.240 And so it's

00:48:19.620 easier for him

00:48:20.400 or safer

00:48:21.140 not to mention

00:48:21.820 it.

00:48:22.680 Now, to

00:48:23.120 me, when

00:48:25.240 you add

00:48:25.660 that to

00:48:26.260 what Higgins

00:48:27.560 says is a

00:48:28.460 lot of

00:48:28.960 evidence that

00:48:30.920 entrapment

00:48:32.100 was the

00:48:32.920 entire

00:48:35.400 process,

00:48:37.020 there's

00:48:37.520 an audio

00:48:38.120 of Nancy

00:48:38.760 Pelosi

00:48:39.220 being happy

00:48:41.560 during January

00:48:42.380 6th as it

00:48:43.160 was happening

00:48:43.700 because she

00:48:44.560 heard that the

00:48:45.220 trespassers were

00:48:46.140 on the

00:48:46.660 Capitol grounds.

00:48:48.760 And then she

00:48:49.100 realized that you

00:48:49.760 could put them

00:48:50.260 in jail now

00:48:50.980 because they've

00:48:53.020 gone into this

00:48:53.700 federal offense

00:48:54.720 trespassing.

00:48:56.440 And she

00:48:56.960 seemed pretty

00:48:57.520 fucking happy

00:48:58.300 about it.

00:48:58.780 she seemed

00:49:00.340 happy that

00:49:00.920 she could put

00:49:01.400 the protesters

00:49:02.220 in jail for

00:49:03.240 that.

00:49:04.280 Yeah.

00:49:04.660 So I will

00:49:05.500 say that based

00:49:06.280 on what I've

00:49:06.700 seen so far,

00:49:07.820 I think the

00:49:08.580 working assumption

00:49:09.400 is that it

00:49:10.160 was a

00:49:10.700 government op.

00:49:12.560 Doesn't mean

00:49:13.280 I know that.

00:49:14.940 Doesn't mean

00:49:15.660 it's proven.

00:49:16.920 But the

00:49:17.660 government is

00:49:18.460 guilty until

00:49:19.100 proven innocent

00:49:19.840 and they've

00:49:20.740 made a very

00:49:21.560 big show of

00:49:23.000 not wanting

00:49:23.820 to be transparent.

00:49:24.720 transparent.

00:49:25.200 If you

00:49:25.880 suspect your

00:49:26.600 government could

00:49:27.520 have done

00:49:27.860 something and

00:49:28.900 their response

00:49:29.640 is to give

00:49:30.300 you no

00:49:30.720 transparency,

00:49:32.260 the working

00:49:32.940 assumption is

00:49:33.880 that you've

00:49:34.260 proven their

00:49:34.740 guilt.

00:49:35.860 It doesn't

00:49:36.620 have to be

00:49:37.100 true.

00:49:38.300 In the same

00:49:39.180 way that you

00:49:39.780 say about a

00:49:40.340 citizen,

00:49:41.360 innocent until

00:49:42.060 proven guilty,

00:49:43.180 that doesn't

00:49:43.700 mean they're

00:49:44.060 innocent.

00:49:45.020 That just

00:49:45.700 means that's

00:49:46.180 the standard.

00:49:47.600 And that if

00:49:48.260 you've got a

00:49:48.700 good standard,

00:49:49.480 you're better

00:49:49.760 off than if

00:49:50.280 you don't have

00:49:50.660 a standard.

00:49:51.480 The standard

00:49:52.080 for the

00:49:52.420 government is

00:49:53.900 if you

00:49:54.280 suspect they

00:49:54.980 did something

00:49:55.520 bad and

00:49:56.860 they put up

00:49:57.340 all the

00:49:57.640 walls and

00:49:58.160 bar you

00:49:58.540 from finding

00:49:59.120 out for

00:49:59.560 sure,

00:50:00.260 you have to

00:50:01.140 assume it's

00:50:01.700 true.

00:50:02.580 And you

00:50:02.920 should do

00:50:03.280 all of your

00:50:03.880 actions,

00:50:05.000 your words,

00:50:06.740 and all of

00:50:07.320 your decisions

00:50:07.980 based on that

00:50:09.320 working assumption

00:50:10.100 that it was

00:50:10.920 an op on

00:50:13.340 January 6th.

00:50:14.240 Doesn't mean

00:50:14.760 it is.

00:50:15.700 Likewise with

00:50:16.440 the election,

00:50:17.620 I have no

00:50:18.940 proof of any

00:50:20.520 rigging,

00:50:21.500 personally.

00:50:22.160 I don't have

00:50:22.680 proof, and I

00:50:23.620 don't know how

00:50:24.080 I ever would.

00:50:25.460 But the

00:50:25.980 fact that I

00:50:26.480 can't get

00:50:26.960 it one way

00:50:28.280 or the

00:50:28.580 other, my

00:50:30.160 working assumption

00:50:31.000 is it's

00:50:31.520 rigged, and

00:50:32.440 that it will

00:50:32.780 be rigged

00:50:33.220 again.

00:50:34.120 That's my

00:50:34.540 working

00:50:34.900 assumption.

00:50:35.860 Doesn't

00:50:36.200 mean it's

00:50:36.520 true.

00:50:39.140 Vivek Ramaswamy

00:50:40.200 actually called

00:50:40.920 January 6th

00:50:41.900 Entrapment

00:50:42.460 Day, hashtag

00:50:43.820 Entrapment

00:50:44.520 Day, and he

00:50:46.020 gives you this

00:50:46.760 evidence.

00:50:47.680 He says the

00:50:48.140 Capitol Police

00:50:48.820 fired rubber

00:50:49.960 bullets and

00:50:50.580 stun grenades

00:50:51.120 grenades into a

00:50:51.740 peaceful crowd,

00:50:53.560 yet later

00:50:54.300 willingly allowed

00:50:55.620 members of that

00:50:56.600 crowd to enter

00:50:58.040 the U.S.

00:50:58.560 Capitol building,

00:50:59.760 only to be

00:51:00.440 later tracked

00:51:01.100 down and

00:51:01.400 arrested in

00:51:01.840 prisons.

00:51:02.760 Now, I think

00:51:03.740 you could have

00:51:04.240 some debate

00:51:04.960 about whether

00:51:06.420 that crowd was

00:51:07.240 peaceful.

00:51:09.020 Would you agree?

00:51:10.660 You can debate

00:51:11.580 that, because there

00:51:12.520 were certainly

00:51:12.920 violent members of

00:51:14.160 it.

00:51:14.820 But what I would

00:51:15.620 not debate is

00:51:17.000 that the rubber

00:51:17.560 bullets and

00:51:18.180 stun grenades

00:51:18.860 appeared to be

00:51:20.320 aimed into the

00:51:21.200 middle of the

00:51:22.020 nonviolent group.

00:51:25.040 Am I right?

00:51:26.580 If the only

00:51:27.520 people that were

00:51:28.160 rubber bulleting

00:51:29.080 and stun

00:51:30.880 grenading were

00:51:31.660 the people in

00:51:32.260 the front who

00:51:32.840 were breaking

00:51:33.280 windows and

00:51:34.080 trying to beat

00:51:35.720 to death

00:51:36.160 Capitol Police,

00:51:38.000 then I would

00:51:38.460 say, oh,

00:51:39.020 that's a good

00:51:39.480 use of a

00:51:40.000 rubber bullet

00:51:40.560 and a stun

00:51:41.020 grenade.

00:51:42.920 But why

00:51:44.380 should you

00:51:44.800 assume about

00:51:46.360 the fact that

00:51:47.080 this was done

00:51:48.020 into the

00:51:48.580 center of the

00:51:49.380 peaceful part

00:51:50.160 of the

00:51:50.360 crowd, and

00:51:51.700 then they

00:51:52.020 opened the

00:51:52.440 doors?

00:51:53.680 Now, it

00:51:54.240 doesn't mean

00:51:54.700 that the

00:51:54.960 people opening

00:51:55.480 doors had

00:51:57.200 any communication

00:51:58.520 with the

00:51:59.980 people who

00:52:00.400 fired the

00:52:00.840 rubber bullets

00:52:01.420 and the

00:52:01.700 stun

00:52:01.900 grenades.

00:52:02.900 Might have

00:52:03.380 been different

00:52:03.740 people,

00:52:04.260 just making

00:52:06.120 their own

00:52:06.440 decisions of

00:52:07.320 what they

00:52:07.640 thought would

00:52:08.800 work best.

00:52:11.360 But, if

00:52:13.760 you can't

00:52:14.300 prove it one

00:52:14.980 way or another,

00:52:15.640 and it

00:52:16.360 looks very

00:52:16.980 suspicious,

00:52:17.720 as the

00:52:18.040 vague points

00:52:18.620 out, it

00:52:19.760 smells bad.

00:52:21.820 The video is

00:52:23.240 really damning

00:52:24.100 about why they

00:52:25.480 would do that.

00:52:26.460 Now, it

00:52:26.860 could be as

00:52:27.360 simple as

00:52:27.780 incompetence.

00:52:29.200 It could be

00:52:29.600 that whoever

00:52:30.060 fired the

00:52:30.640 bullets and

00:52:31.120 the stun

00:52:31.460 grenades was

00:52:32.620 just bad at

00:52:33.240 their job and

00:52:33.920 made a bad

00:52:34.340 decision.

00:52:35.000 That would be

00:52:35.400 the most

00:52:35.700 ordinary

00:52:36.040 explanation.

00:52:37.480 But the

00:52:38.120 fact that we

00:52:38.640 can't know

00:52:39.400 what was

00:52:41.820 behind that,

00:52:43.480 your working

00:52:44.180 assumption,

00:52:44.760 should be

00:52:47.340 that it's

00:52:48.940 what it

00:52:49.200 looks like.

00:52:50.360 It looks

00:52:51.000 like they

00:52:51.340 were trying

00:52:51.660 to cause

00:52:52.180 more trouble

00:52:52.700 than they

00:52:52.980 were trying

00:52:53.260 to solve.

00:52:54.240 That's what

00:52:54.560 it looks

00:52:54.960 like.

00:52:56.000 Can I

00:52:56.340 prove that?

00:52:57.100 Do I know

00:52:57.540 what they're

00:52:57.800 thinking?

00:52:58.200 Can I read

00:52:58.600 their minds?

00:52:59.160 No.

00:53:00.060 Nope.

00:53:00.480 Can't prove

00:53:00.920 it.

00:53:01.120 Can't read

00:53:01.480 their minds.

00:53:02.640 And if this

00:53:03.060 were just

00:53:03.460 about individuals,

00:53:04.820 I would say,

00:53:05.840 well, they're

00:53:06.160 innocent until

00:53:06.720 proven guilty.

00:53:07.480 You better

00:53:07.720 bring me

00:53:08.160 some proof.

00:53:09.220 But we're

00:53:09.540 talking about

00:53:10.040 the government,

00:53:11.360 and the

00:53:11.840 government is

00:53:12.380 guilty unless

00:53:13.380 they can prove

00:53:14.000 it with

00:53:14.280 transparency.

00:53:16.340 All right.

00:53:18.020 This story is

00:53:18.900 wacky.

00:53:20.420 So for a

00:53:21.940 few days,

00:53:22.820 for four

00:53:23.420 days, the

00:53:25.540 Secretary of

00:53:27.940 Defense, Lloyd

00:53:28.940 Austin, was

00:53:29.560 hospitalized in

00:53:31.040 intensive care,

00:53:32.520 and the

00:53:33.520 President of the

00:53:34.060 United States

00:53:34.600 was unaware

00:53:35.160 of it.

00:53:35.680 first, but

00:53:37.960 don't worry

00:53:38.580 because his

00:53:39.480 number two

00:53:40.060 was in

00:53:40.480 charge in

00:53:40.900 running

00:53:41.160 things from

00:53:43.540 her vacation

00:53:44.340 in Puerto

00:53:44.840 Rico.

00:53:47.780 That's

00:53:48.340 right.

00:53:49.360 For four

00:53:49.920 days, the

00:53:50.800 United States

00:53:51.600 did not have

00:53:52.540 a military

00:53:53.240 defense, or

00:53:55.560 at least not

00:53:56.200 one that is

00:53:56.940 working the

00:53:57.420 way we

00:53:57.720 wanted to.

00:53:58.760 So the

00:53:59.180 person in

00:53:59.620 charge wasn't

00:54:00.300 even,

00:54:00.880 basically,

00:54:02.020 wasn't

00:54:02.840 operational,

00:54:03.360 and the

00:54:04.680 person second

00:54:05.320 in charge

00:54:05.760 was on

00:54:06.100 vacation.

00:54:08.340 Now, I

00:54:08.900 suppose if

00:54:09.540 something bad

00:54:10.360 happened, she

00:54:11.260 would immediately

00:54:11.820 come back

00:54:12.480 from vacation,

00:54:13.660 but do you

00:54:14.580 feel comfortable

00:54:15.300 with that?

00:54:17.840 Keep in

00:54:18.280 mind that the

00:54:18.860 person who

00:54:19.240 was second

00:54:19.600 in line also

00:54:20.580 did not inform

00:54:21.600 the President

00:54:22.180 that he didn't

00:54:23.520 have a real

00:54:24.540 Secretary of

00:54:25.380 Defense.

00:54:27.200 Now,

00:54:28.560 correct me if

00:54:29.220 I'm wrong.

00:54:29.700 wouldn't you

00:54:32.900 get fired

00:54:33.460 for this?

00:54:35.900 If I were

00:54:37.100 the Secretary

00:54:37.640 of Defense

00:54:38.140 and I did

00:54:38.640 this, would

00:54:39.160 I not get

00:54:39.640 fired?

00:54:41.180 I think

00:54:41.880 obviously I

00:54:42.580 would.

00:54:44.240 Obviously I

00:54:44.980 would.

00:54:45.720 Like, really

00:54:46.180 obviously.

00:54:47.260 Like, this

00:54:48.040 one's black

00:54:49.340 and white.

00:54:50.760 But how

00:54:51.100 about if you

00:54:51.500 were the

00:54:51.740 number two,

00:54:52.940 the Deputy

00:54:53.500 Secretary,

00:54:54.540 who was in

00:54:55.280 charge, but

00:54:56.720 on vacation

00:54:57.300 in Puerto

00:54:57.700 Rico, and

00:54:58.220 you also

00:54:58.760 didn't tell

00:54:59.300 your

00:54:59.660 President,

00:55:01.340 that he

00:55:01.600 didn't have

00:55:02.040 a, you

00:55:02.980 know, Secretary

00:55:04.660 of State, or

00:55:05.840 Secretary of

00:55:06.600 Defense, who

00:55:07.220 was in the

00:55:08.080 country.

00:55:09.360 Shouldn't

00:55:09.840 you be

00:55:10.140 fired for

00:55:10.580 that?

00:55:12.360 I think

00:55:13.040 so.

00:55:14.080 How about

00:55:14.500 for not

00:55:14.980 immediately

00:55:15.520 canceling your

00:55:16.240 vacation when

00:55:17.820 you found

00:55:18.220 out that your

00:55:18.720 boss is

00:55:19.280 incapacitated?

00:55:20.800 I think

00:55:21.440 you should

00:55:21.680 be fired

00:55:22.100 for that,

00:55:23.220 or at

00:55:23.660 least, again,

00:55:25.040 not mentioning

00:55:25.980 it to your

00:55:26.480 boss, the

00:55:27.120 President.

00:55:29.300 Well, here's

00:55:30.080 what I

00:55:30.320 think.

00:55:31.400 The Deputy

00:55:32.840 Secretary of

00:55:33.560 Defense, Kathleen

00:55:34.340 Hicks, is a

00:55:35.000 woman, and

00:55:36.160 the Secretary of

00:55:36.820 Defense, Lloyd

00:55:37.400 Austin, is a

00:55:38.200 black man.

00:55:39.380 I think the

00:55:39.900 first black

00:55:40.840 Secretary of

00:55:41.940 Defense.

00:55:42.580 Do you

00:55:42.960 think that

00:55:44.720 they will be

00:55:45.240 fired for

00:55:46.720 what is

00:55:47.200 obviously a

00:55:47.920 firing offense?

00:55:50.240 I'm going to

00:55:50.920 say no, and

00:55:52.340 I'm going to

00:55:52.600 say this is

00:55:53.200 what the

00:55:53.600 anti-DEI

00:55:54.560 people have

00:55:55.240 been warning

00:55:55.980 everybody

00:55:56.580 about.

00:55:58.440 You can't

00:55:59.320 fire some

00:55:59.840 people.

00:56:00.840 It's just

00:56:01.620 really, really

00:56:02.320 hard to

00:56:02.820 fire people

00:56:04.080 who have

00:56:04.420 been hired

00:56:04.920 for their

00:56:05.580 diversity.

00:56:07.440 Now, does

00:56:07.800 that mean

00:56:08.260 that these

00:56:10.120 two people

00:56:10.600 are not

00:56:11.000 capable of

00:56:11.700 doing their

00:56:12.060 jobs?

00:56:12.420 I'm not

00:56:12.700 saying that.

00:56:13.620 I'm saying

00:56:14.040 there was a

00:56:14.500 specific thing

00:56:15.280 they did that

00:56:16.760 no matter what

00:56:17.560 your general

00:56:18.120 capability was,

00:56:19.240 or no matter

00:56:19.660 what you did

00:56:20.320 up to that

00:56:21.020 point, it's

00:56:22.380 a pretty obvious

00:56:23.280 firing offense.

00:56:24.200 But I don't

00:56:26.300 think it'll

00:56:26.680 happen.

00:56:27.740 Now, you

00:56:28.520 could argue,

00:56:29.200 Scott, you

00:56:29.600 don't know the

00:56:30.080 details, and

00:56:31.120 if you did,

00:56:31.860 maybe you

00:56:32.340 change your

00:56:32.780 mind, and

00:56:33.200 you're right.

00:56:33.980 If I knew

00:56:34.420 the details, I

00:56:35.600 might change

00:56:36.000 my mind.

00:56:37.000 But here's

00:56:37.340 the problem.

00:56:39.060 Our leaders,

00:56:40.160 especially our

00:56:40.820 military leaders,

00:56:41.720 they need to

00:56:42.240 inspire confidence.

00:56:44.200 That's a real

00:56:45.060 key part of

00:56:45.820 their job.

00:56:46.860 Inspire

00:56:47.340 confidence.

00:56:48.740 Did this

00:56:49.260 inspire confidence?

00:56:51.080 No.

00:56:52.400 They're the

00:56:52.740 opposite.

00:56:53.620 And I'm

00:56:53.960 pretty sure

00:56:54.500 that they

00:56:54.900 can't be

00:56:55.360 fired, because

00:56:56.680 one's a

00:56:58.360 woman, one's

00:56:59.100 a black

00:56:59.540 man, and

00:57:00.180 I don't

00:57:00.680 think we

00:57:01.060 can fire

00:57:01.480 them in

00:57:01.880 today's

00:57:02.220 environment.

00:57:03.760 So, well,

00:57:04.560 they're leaders

00:57:05.020 in the

00:57:05.260 military sense.

00:57:08.840 And then

00:57:09.520 Jack Posobiec

00:57:10.560 reports this.

00:57:11.740 Here's what

00:57:12.140 really happened.

00:57:12.860 The White

00:57:13.060 House senior

00:57:13.520 staff knew

00:57:14.660 Austin was

00:57:15.280 in the ICU,

00:57:16.140 but he

00:57:16.340 hit it from

00:57:16.740 Biden.

00:57:17.080 Oh, that's

00:57:17.400 worse.

00:57:18.280 I was

00:57:18.580 saying that

00:57:19.000 they didn't

00:57:19.540 tell the

00:57:20.220 president, but

00:57:20.840 they knew

00:57:21.200 the senior

00:57:21.700 staff knew.

00:57:22.420 OK, so

00:57:24.220 if the senior

00:57:24.740 staff knew,

00:57:27.340 does that

00:57:27.780 put the

00:57:28.780 secretary of

00:57:29.800 defense and

00:57:30.580 the deputy,

00:57:31.820 does that

00:57:32.160 put them in

00:57:32.540 the clear?

00:57:33.460 Because I

00:57:34.000 would suggest

00:57:34.500 they did

00:57:34.960 try to tell

00:57:35.480 the boss,

00:57:36.480 but the

00:57:37.240 staff didn't

00:57:37.960 tell them.

00:57:39.840 I'm going to

00:57:40.540 say that

00:57:40.920 doesn't put

00:57:41.440 them in the

00:57:41.840 clear.

00:57:42.060 I mean,

00:57:44.800 it's a

00:57:44.960 good defense,

00:57:46.840 but if

00:57:47.140 you're the

00:57:47.440 secretary of

00:57:48.580 defense,

00:57:49.920 do you

00:57:51.220 hope somebody

00:57:51.960 tells the

00:57:52.420 president,

00:57:53.180 or do you

00:57:54.080 make sure

00:57:54.460 you talk

00:57:54.880 to him?

00:57:57.100 Why in

00:57:57.640 the world

00:57:58.060 would you

00:57:58.400 not have

00:57:58.840 at least

00:57:59.200 a 10-second

00:57:59.960 conversation

00:58:00.640 with the

00:58:01.120 president if

00:58:02.220 you were

00:58:02.420 going to

00:58:02.600 leave the

00:58:02.940 country

00:58:03.340 undefended?

00:58:05.760 Maybe you

00:58:06.380 didn't know

00:58:06.680 the hospitalization

00:58:07.580 would be that

00:58:08.120 bad.

00:58:08.900 There could

00:58:09.200 be lots of

00:58:09.980 extending

00:58:10.680 circumstances.

00:58:12.840 Could be.

00:58:16.420 All right,

00:58:16.920 let me catch

00:58:17.340 up my

00:58:17.660 comments here.

00:58:18.600 Comments

00:58:19.020 don't scroll

00:58:19.780 on this

00:58:21.040 platform.

00:58:21.780 You have

00:58:21.980 to scroll.

00:58:24.660 All right.

00:58:27.720 Yeah,

00:58:28.320 so in

00:58:29.180 the age

00:58:30.000 of DEI,

00:58:31.480 you have

00:58:32.740 to ask a

00:58:33.100 lot of

00:58:33.300 questions.

00:58:33.760 First of

00:58:34.060 all,

00:58:34.180 the White

00:58:34.440 House

00:58:34.660 senior

00:58:34.920 staff,

00:58:36.160 how many

00:58:36.640 of them

00:58:36.900 are DEI

00:58:37.560 hires?

00:58:38.720 But they

00:58:39.080 hid it

00:58:39.340 from Biden

00:58:39.880 and

00:58:41.560 it's

00:58:43.180 going to

00:58:43.360 be a

00:58:43.580 problem

00:58:43.920 and

00:58:44.580 Biden

00:58:44.880 was

00:58:45.120 livid

00:58:45.940 for the

00:58:46.500 White

00:58:46.660 House

00:58:46.940 staffers.

00:58:48.800 Do you

00:58:49.000 think

00:58:49.200 Biden

00:58:49.560 should

00:58:49.900 be

00:58:50.100 livid

00:58:50.400 about

00:58:50.660 that?

00:58:53.180 Yes.

00:58:55.220 Yes.

00:58:56.240 Even

00:58:56.560 dementia

00:58:57.120 Hitler

00:58:57.440 should be

00:58:57.920 livid

00:58:58.240 about that.

00:58:59.580 Absolutely

00:59:00.180 livid.

00:59:01.260 Do you

00:59:01.420 think he

00:59:01.740 should?

00:59:02.200 Here's,

00:59:02.420 here's,

00:59:02.980 let me

00:59:03.600 make this

00:59:05.000 standard.

00:59:05.420 if he

00:59:06.660 doesn't

00:59:07.120 fire the

00:59:08.260 Secretary

00:59:08.740 of Defense

00:59:09.460 and possibly

00:59:10.740 the Deputy,

00:59:11.880 if he

00:59:12.900 doesn't,

00:59:14.000 he's got

00:59:14.460 to fire

00:59:14.800 his staff.

00:59:16.580 Because if

00:59:17.280 his staff

00:59:17.840 is really

00:59:18.360 the problem,

00:59:19.000 and it

00:59:19.180 might be,

00:59:19.920 so maybe

00:59:20.760 the Secretary

00:59:22.360 of Defense

00:59:23.820 and the

00:59:24.300 Deputy are

00:59:24.800 both in

00:59:25.940 the clear.

00:59:26.720 It's

00:59:27.100 possible.

00:59:29.180 But if

00:59:29.780 they talk

00:59:30.180 to the

00:59:30.480 staff,

00:59:31.280 do you

00:59:31.440 think Biden

00:59:32.040 would have

00:59:32.440 said,

00:59:33.740 well,

00:59:33.960 let me ask

00:59:34.320 you this,

00:59:34.800 do you

00:59:34.980 think Biden

00:59:35.420 would have

00:59:35.720 said,

00:59:35.940 you know

00:59:36.120 what,

00:59:37.120 you stay

00:59:38.120 on your

00:59:38.360 vacation in

00:59:39.040 Puerto Rico,

00:59:40.060 and I'm

00:59:40.820 sure everything

00:59:41.280 will be fine

00:59:41.960 because we

00:59:42.260 have telephones

00:59:42.960 and we'll

00:59:43.900 call you

00:59:44.320 if we need

00:59:44.760 you.

00:59:45.920 I don't

00:59:46.420 know.

00:59:47.680 He might

00:59:48.100 have said,

00:59:48.520 that's a

00:59:48.800 bad look,

00:59:49.440 you better

00:59:49.720 get back

00:59:50.160 here right

00:59:50.500 away.

00:59:51.820 He might

00:59:52.220 have.

00:59:52.820 I think I

00:59:53.360 would have

00:59:53.720 if I had

00:59:54.220 been the

00:59:54.480 president.

00:59:56.960 So yeah,

00:59:57.600 you should

00:59:57.860 be pretty

00:59:58.580 livid about

00:59:59.120 that.

01:00:02.420 What else

01:00:03.000 is happening?

01:00:04.980 So the

01:00:08.600 Daily Wire

01:00:09.220 is reporting

01:00:10.000 that a

01:00:11.380 meta-analysis

01:00:12.400 has been

01:00:12.920 completed

01:00:13.420 on the

01:00:15.000 question of

01:00:15.560 whether

01:00:15.840 minorities in

01:00:16.760 this country

01:00:17.200 are mistreated

01:00:17.960 by the

01:00:18.480 legal system

01:00:19.220 compared to

01:00:20.380 anybody else.

01:00:21.740 What do you

01:00:22.420 think they

01:00:22.700 found?

01:00:26.720 Yeah,

01:00:27.480 it's just

01:00:27.840 what you

01:00:28.120 thought.

01:00:28.420 as a

01:00:30.000 meta-analysis

01:00:30.780 the study

01:00:32.500 found that

01:00:33.460 there was

01:00:35.180 no difference

01:00:35.740 in how

01:00:36.000 people were

01:00:36.420 treated

01:00:36.640 by the

01:00:37.500 legal system.

01:00:38.980 The racial

01:00:39.460 bias just

01:00:40.260 didn't seem

01:00:40.920 to come

01:00:41.260 out of the

01:00:41.640 studies.

01:00:42.920 So there

01:00:43.240 wasn't any

01:00:43.740 racial bias

01:00:44.380 in punishment

01:00:45.000 that they

01:00:46.000 could

01:00:46.300 suss into

01:00:47.120 the meta-analysis

01:00:48.540 which is a

01:00:49.140 study of

01:00:49.520 studies.

01:00:51.440 So,

01:00:52.020 but here's

01:00:52.360 the more

01:00:52.620 interesting

01:00:52.980 part.

01:00:53.920 When they

01:00:54.400 look at

01:00:54.760 individual

01:00:55.320 writings

01:00:56.440 by academics,

01:00:58.420 they find

01:00:59.000 that the

01:00:59.760 academics

01:01:00.300 routinely do

01:01:01.700 this.

01:01:03.200 They

01:01:03.440 routinely

01:01:03.960 show you

01:01:04.600 data that

01:01:05.860 suggests

01:01:06.260 there's no

01:01:06.800 difference in

01:01:07.800 treatment or

01:01:08.700 penalty by

01:01:09.780 race.

01:01:10.980 And then

01:01:11.440 they'll write

01:01:11.900 an article

01:01:12.380 that says

01:01:13.320 it's really

01:01:14.200 terrible that

01:01:15.000 there's such

01:01:15.380 a big

01:01:15.640 difference in

01:01:16.160 the treatment

01:01:16.620 by race.

01:01:18.360 That's

01:01:19.000 right.

01:01:20.300 The

01:01:20.560 academics

01:01:21.140 and the

01:01:21.940 science-y

01:01:23.120 people

01:01:23.520 are so

01:01:26.960 out of

01:01:27.320 control

01:01:27.760 that they

01:01:28.980 can show

01:01:29.460 you the

01:01:29.780 data that's

01:01:30.340 opposite of

01:01:31.040 what they

01:01:31.340 write about

01:01:31.880 and nobody

01:01:32.820 catches it.

01:01:34.520 These are

01:01:35.100 things that

01:01:35.520 nobody caught

01:01:36.340 until somebody

01:01:37.500 looked specifically

01:01:38.460 to see if the

01:01:39.900 article and the

01:01:40.880 data matched

01:01:41.760 and they

01:01:42.200 didn't.

01:01:44.700 Is that

01:01:45.380 amazing?

01:01:47.080 People were

01:01:47.580 really,

01:01:48.140 they were

01:01:48.500 actually showing

01:01:49.160 the data the

01:01:49.960 opposite of the

01:01:50.600 argument they

01:01:51.160 made in the

01:01:51.660 same paper.

01:01:52.140 routinely.

01:01:56.300 Oh my

01:01:57.060 God.

01:01:58.240 Oh my

01:01:58.700 God.

01:01:59.900 Yeah.

01:02:02.020 So,

01:02:03.260 how's that

01:02:03.960 George Floyd

01:02:04.820 situation look

01:02:05.760 now?

01:02:06.940 I think we

01:02:07.720 can say

01:02:08.060 out loud that

01:02:08.620 Derek Chauvin

01:02:09.320 was in the

01:02:11.420 process of

01:02:12.000 being murdered

01:02:12.520 because he's

01:02:13.120 white.

01:02:14.560 And that's

01:02:14.940 pretty obvious

01:02:15.520 at this point.

01:02:17.620 All right.

01:02:19.280 I have

01:02:19.980 discovered,

01:02:20.480 at least

01:02:21.760 in my

01:02:22.180 personal

01:02:22.540 experience

01:02:23.000 on X,

01:02:23.500 that there

01:02:23.780 are way

01:02:24.240 more

01:02:24.580 anti-Semitic

01:02:25.800 commenters.

01:02:28.060 Is that

01:02:28.780 because of

01:02:29.280 the war

01:02:29.620 in Gaza?

01:02:31.560 Or,

01:02:32.680 I speculate

01:02:33.740 these might

01:02:34.580 be bots.

01:02:36.060 And the

01:02:36.360 reason I

01:02:36.700 speculate that

01:02:37.380 is,

01:02:38.180 don't you

01:02:38.680 think that

01:02:39.720 the bad,

01:02:40.640 evil people

01:02:41.360 on the

01:02:41.760 left hired

01:02:43.140 a bunch

01:02:43.500 of people

01:02:43.900 to act

01:02:44.460 anti-Semitic

01:02:45.440 so that

01:02:46.140 X looks

01:02:47.240 like the

01:02:47.640 place that

01:02:48.120 hates Jews?

01:02:48.740 It could

01:02:51.940 be a

01:02:52.220 tic-tac

01:02:52.580 effect.

01:02:54.300 But here's

01:02:55.100 why they

01:02:55.500 look like

01:02:55.940 bots to

01:02:56.600 me.

01:02:56.940 In other

01:02:57.160 words,

01:02:57.560 paid people

01:02:58.300 that are

01:02:59.060 paid to

01:02:59.560 cause trouble.

01:03:00.880 It looks

01:03:01.320 like that

01:03:01.660 because they

01:03:02.080 make the

01:03:02.480 same comments

01:03:03.260 all the

01:03:03.580 time.

01:03:04.600 The similarity

01:03:05.640 of the

01:03:06.060 comments they

01:03:06.660 make,

01:03:07.040 at least in

01:03:07.440 my posts,

01:03:08.420 are hard

01:03:09.460 to ignore.

01:03:10.620 It doesn't

01:03:11.200 look like

01:03:11.600 real people

01:03:12.220 who just

01:03:12.740 had a

01:03:13.180 thought and

01:03:13.740 made a

01:03:14.100 post,

01:03:14.880 because you

01:03:15.200 can recognize

01:03:15.660 that.

01:03:16.460 They're all

01:03:16.760 different.

01:03:17.100 But when

01:03:17.920 they have

01:03:18.160 this

01:03:18.380 commonality

01:03:19.200 to them,

01:03:20.400 I worry

01:03:21.140 that Elon

01:03:21.660 Musk is

01:03:22.160 being set

01:03:22.740 up and

01:03:25.020 that there

01:03:25.580 are bad

01:03:25.980 people

01:03:26.340 pretending

01:03:26.960 to be

01:03:28.260 anti-Semitic.

01:03:30.320 Let me

01:03:30.680 tell you

01:03:30.960 what they

01:03:31.260 say,

01:03:32.140 the common

01:03:32.860 thing that

01:03:33.360 they say.

01:03:36.680 It goes

01:03:37.520 like this.

01:03:39.220 If you're

01:03:40.000 a casual

01:03:40.640 observer of

01:03:41.860 political

01:03:42.320 news,

01:03:43.560 you might

01:03:44.020 assume that

01:03:44.600 most of the

01:03:45.040 things they

01:03:45.420 tell you are

01:03:46.020 reasonably

01:03:46.760 true.

01:03:48.220 The news

01:03:49.020 sometimes is

01:03:49.640 wrong,

01:03:50.520 but reasonably

01:03:51.160 true.

01:03:51.860 So that

01:03:52.180 would be

01:03:52.440 what I

01:03:52.780 call the

01:03:53.180 lowest level

01:03:54.080 of awareness.

01:03:56.140 Would you

01:03:56.880 agree?

01:03:57.480 If you

01:03:57.960 think the

01:03:58.340 news is

01:03:58.820 usually

01:03:59.180 true,

01:04:00.140 that's the

01:04:01.220 lowest level

01:04:01.900 of understanding

01:04:02.620 of your

01:04:03.080 environment.

01:04:04.160 If you

01:04:04.900 think that

01:04:05.400 the traditional

01:04:07.540 news sources

01:04:08.320 are corrupt,

01:04:10.440 then you're

01:04:11.300 a little bit

01:04:11.700 higher level

01:04:12.720 of awareness.

01:04:13.220 awareness.

01:04:14.920 But people

01:04:16.240 don't stop

01:04:16.820 there.

01:04:17.760 I don't.

01:04:19.060 I say,

01:04:19.600 why is the

01:04:20.200 news corrupt?

01:04:21.740 And then I

01:04:22.160 back it up a

01:04:22.760 little bit and

01:04:23.200 I go,

01:04:23.480 oh,

01:04:24.300 Democrats.

01:04:25.520 Because the

01:04:26.140 news is

01:04:27.020 dominated by

01:04:27.780 Democrats.

01:04:28.900 The Democrat

01:04:29.400 Party wants

01:04:30.100 them to

01:04:30.500 support them.

01:04:31.560 So really,

01:04:32.680 you have to

01:04:33.360 go all the

01:04:33.660 way to

01:04:33.900 Democrats.

01:04:35.400 But is it

01:04:37.660 all Democrats?

01:04:38.440 And are

01:04:39.160 Democrats

01:04:39.600 pushing their

01:04:40.600 own buttons?

01:04:42.160 Here's where

01:04:42.920 other people

01:04:43.520 go, but

01:04:44.220 not me.

01:04:45.240 So other

01:04:45.620 people say,

01:04:46.180 it's not the

01:04:46.740 Democrats,

01:04:47.420 Scott.

01:04:48.380 There's

01:04:48.960 somebody behind

01:04:49.720 the Democrats.

01:04:51.360 Well, who's

01:04:51.840 that?

01:04:52.800 Who's behind

01:04:53.480 the Democrats?

01:04:54.900 Well, Scott,

01:04:55.640 it's the

01:04:56.060 WEF and

01:04:57.560 the World

01:04:58.780 Economic

01:04:59.260 Forum.

01:05:00.240 It's

01:05:00.520 Klaus Schwab.

01:05:01.960 So Klaus

01:05:02.520 Schwab is

01:05:03.240 pressing the

01:05:03.780 buttons of

01:05:04.980 the Democrats.

01:05:05.800 The Democrats

01:05:06.260 are pressing

01:05:06.820 the buttons of

01:05:08.200 the press,

01:05:09.360 and the

01:05:09.640 press is

01:05:10.160 pressing the

01:05:10.760 buttons of

01:05:11.300 the voters.

01:05:12.500 So now you

01:05:13.360 understand the

01:05:14.020 whole mechanism.

01:05:15.580 But, wait,

01:05:16.660 we're not done.

01:05:17.960 We're not done,

01:05:19.060 say the

01:05:19.420 commenters who

01:05:20.500 are streaming

01:05:21.160 in lately.

01:05:22.160 They say,

01:05:22.820 Scott, look

01:05:24.140 deeper.

01:05:25.580 It's not the

01:05:26.260 WEF.

01:05:27.560 The WEF is

01:05:28.700 also a puppet.

01:05:30.240 It's really

01:05:30.920 the Jews.

01:05:33.540 Now, that's

01:05:34.320 the comment that

01:05:35.040 I'm getting to

01:05:36.120 almost anything

01:05:37.180 I post.

01:05:38.200 If I post

01:05:39.980 any kind of

01:05:40.680 the press

01:05:41.860 is doing

01:05:42.240 this or the

01:05:42.920 Democrats

01:05:43.320 are doing

01:05:43.760 that, which

01:05:44.260 I often

01:05:44.620 do, somebody

01:05:46.040 will enter

01:05:46.560 the comments

01:05:47.480 and say,

01:05:48.680 dig deeper,

01:05:49.480 Scott.

01:05:50.140 You almost

01:05:51.040 know who

01:05:51.620 they are.

01:05:54.140 Now, that,

01:05:55.560 of course, is

01:05:56.140 something I've

01:05:56.860 always heard on

01:05:58.640 social media.

01:06:01.120 What's different

01:06:02.120 is I hear it

01:06:03.540 on all, it

01:06:04.360 seems like any

01:06:05.040 kind of post

01:06:05.840 that has any

01:06:07.260 kind of

01:06:07.700 conspiratorial

01:06:08.860 people behind

01:06:10.100 the scenes

01:06:10.560 or manipulating

01:06:11.200 you kind of

01:06:11.880 sense.

01:06:12.620 Somebody will

01:06:13.460 come in and

01:06:14.020 say, you're

01:06:14.880 almost there,

01:06:15.740 Scott.

01:06:16.440 You're almost

01:06:17.320 there.

01:06:18.200 You haven't

01:06:18.720 uncovered yet

01:06:19.500 the massive

01:06:20.720 global Jewish

01:06:22.100 conspiracy that

01:06:23.760 is really behind

01:06:24.780 climate change

01:06:26.360 and the WEF,

01:06:27.520 that is really

01:06:28.020 behind the

01:06:28.520 Democrats,

01:06:29.200 that are really

01:06:29.620 behind the media,

01:06:30.420 that are really

01:06:31.000 the ones who

01:06:31.520 are erupting

01:06:32.780 and influencing

01:06:33.720 the people.

01:06:34.980 Now, if you're

01:06:36.560 joining me late,

01:06:37.880 I'm not

01:06:38.480 subscribing to

01:06:39.560 the WEF

01:06:40.580 theory and

01:06:41.780 I'm not

01:06:42.140 subscribing to

01:06:42.980 the Jews

01:06:44.040 running the

01:06:44.600 planet through

01:06:45.240 the WEF

01:06:46.020 and other

01:06:46.800 theories.

01:06:47.720 So I don't

01:06:48.060 subscribe to

01:06:48.700 those.

01:06:49.340 So my only

01:06:50.040 point is I'm

01:06:50.600 seeing more

01:06:51.280 of it.

01:06:52.560 Is anybody

01:06:52.960 else seeing

01:06:53.360 more of it?

01:06:54.580 And do you

01:06:55.000 think it's

01:06:55.360 because of the

01:06:56.020 Gaza situation

01:06:56.880 or is it

01:06:58.160 about Musk?

01:06:59.640 Is it an

01:07:00.200 op?

01:07:01.000 Or just

01:07:01.820 because the

01:07:02.440 news is the

01:07:03.120 news and

01:07:03.840 what it is

01:07:04.260 lately?

01:07:05.540 What do you

01:07:06.160 think?

01:07:07.060 I actually

01:07:07.620 don't know.

01:07:17.400 Okay.

01:07:21.880 I'm just

01:07:22.600 looking at

01:07:22.920 some of your

01:07:23.280 answers to

01:07:23.800 see if

01:07:24.040 anything

01:07:24.360 useful comes

01:07:25.320 out.

01:07:25.540 all right.

01:07:32.080 All right.

01:07:33.980 Well, I

01:07:34.600 will just

01:07:34.940 tell you,

01:07:35.760 I've said

01:07:36.160 this a

01:07:36.480 number of

01:07:36.760 times.

01:07:38.480 In my

01:07:39.220 career, I

01:07:41.660 get to see

01:07:43.060 behind the

01:07:43.600 curtain a lot.

01:07:45.040 So I either

01:07:45.800 know people who

01:07:46.700 are already,

01:07:47.640 you know,

01:07:48.120 behind the

01:07:49.180 curtain or I've

01:07:50.800 spent enough

01:07:51.180 time that I can

01:07:51.840 kind of see

01:07:52.380 what's back

01:07:52.800 there.

01:07:52.960 I spent a

01:07:54.840 ton of time

01:07:55.820 around real

01:07:58.240 successful Jewish

01:07:59.560 professionals in

01:08:00.580 publishing,

01:08:01.660 especially in

01:08:02.260 publishing.

01:08:02.900 There's a high

01:08:03.380 percentage.

01:08:05.400 Syndication,

01:08:06.140 comics, etc.

01:08:07.160 I've never

01:08:08.660 seen any of

01:08:09.220 this Jewish

01:08:09.700 conspiracy.

01:08:11.540 Have you?

01:08:13.500 And it's

01:08:14.040 hard, it

01:08:14.560 would be hard

01:08:15.520 for me to

01:08:16.020 imagine that

01:08:17.880 I wouldn't get

01:08:18.380 a whiff of

01:08:18.900 it.

01:08:19.980 Like, given

01:08:20.980 the access

01:08:21.520 that I have,

01:08:22.900 I wouldn't

01:08:23.300 see any of

01:08:23.780 it.

01:08:24.540 Like, ever.

01:08:26.080 Not even

01:08:26.800 one example.

01:08:29.640 Ever.

01:08:31.480 And yet,

01:08:32.000 there are people

01:08:32.480 who are pretty

01:08:32.900 sure that it's

01:08:33.660 massively true.

01:08:35.340 Here's what I

01:08:35.860 think is true.

01:08:36.460 people do

01:08:39.280 have, you

01:08:40.120 know, extra

01:08:40.740 love for

01:08:42.100 anything that's

01:08:42.780 like themselves.

01:08:44.260 Is that

01:08:44.840 fair?

01:08:45.820 People have a

01:08:46.740 little extra

01:08:47.300 affection for

01:08:48.880 anything that's

01:08:49.620 of themselves or

01:08:50.660 by themselves or

01:08:51.620 reminds them of

01:08:52.360 themselves or

01:08:53.180 as part of their

01:08:54.060 heritage, their

01:08:54.940 cultural.

01:08:55.960 So, do we

01:08:57.640 expect that

01:08:58.420 Jewish Americans

01:08:59.720 would be more

01:09:01.680 supportive of

01:09:02.380 Israel than the

01:09:03.240 average American?

01:09:04.940 Of course.

01:09:05.600 But, it's

01:09:07.500 all transparent.

01:09:08.780 I mean, it's

01:09:09.100 like, nobody's

01:09:10.520 hiding that.

01:09:12.500 And, Israel is

01:09:14.120 a good ally of

01:09:14.920 the United

01:09:15.240 States for

01:09:16.440 good reasons.

01:09:18.240 Now, we

01:09:18.900 could all argue

01:09:19.460 about funding

01:09:20.500 and, you know,

01:09:21.100 those details.

01:09:22.420 But, it would

01:09:24.400 be really hard,

01:09:26.140 really, really

01:09:26.960 hard for me

01:09:28.580 to have gone

01:09:29.300 decade after

01:09:30.460 decade working

01:09:32.000 with high-powered

01:09:33.180 Jewish people

01:09:34.020 professionally,

01:09:35.560 you know,

01:09:35.780 close friends.

01:09:37.620 You know, my

01:09:38.000 college was a

01:09:38.980 highly Jewish

01:09:39.540 population.

01:09:40.420 A lot of them

01:09:40.880 were my closest

01:09:41.580 friends.

01:09:42.720 And, never see

01:09:43.500 any hint of

01:09:44.440 it, of the

01:09:45.520 large Jewish

01:09:46.580 conspiracy.

01:09:48.380 Never?

01:09:50.640 Right?

01:09:51.440 Like, oh, I

01:09:52.100 try to remain

01:09:53.100 open-minded to any

01:09:54.260 possibility, but

01:09:55.280 that's a long

01:09:56.640 time to not see

01:09:57.600 a hint of this

01:09:58.740 massive force that

01:10:00.260 you believe exists.

01:10:02.620 But, like I

01:10:03.120 said, certainly

01:10:04.280 individually, people

01:10:06.440 have, you know,

01:10:07.920 an extra love for

01:10:08.920 their cultural

01:10:09.600 backgrounds.

01:10:10.940 Why not?

01:10:11.920 Nothing wrong

01:10:12.500 with that.

01:10:13.820 So, obviously, we

01:10:15.380 have to make sure

01:10:15.940 that our policies

01:10:17.260 are America-centric.

01:10:20.480 So, we've got to

01:10:21.740 be cautious that

01:10:22.640 we don't get, you

01:10:23.460 know, biased in

01:10:24.100 any direction that's

01:10:24.800 bad for America.

01:10:25.940 But, I don't see it

01:10:26.600 as a gigantic

01:10:27.260 problem.

01:10:29.380 All right.

01:10:30.020 Ladies and

01:10:30.540 gentlemen, on

01:10:31.240 the, on X and

01:10:34.320 on YouTube and

01:10:35.680 on Rumble, thanks

01:10:36.440 for joining.

01:10:37.520 I'm going to say

01:10:37.960 bye and I'm going

01:10:38.920 to talk to the

01:10:40.580 Locals people.

01:10:42.300 Because they're

01:10:42.560 special.

01:10:43.120 And, by the way,

01:10:43.640 if you were

01:10:44.760 subscribing on

01:10:45.440 Locals, you would

01:10:46.120 see the Dilbert

01:10:46.800 comic every single

01:10:47.700 day.

01:10:48.380 It never stopped.

01:10:49.540 By the way, do you

01:10:50.100 know that?

01:10:50.980 There was never a

01:10:51.840 day that Dilbert

01:10:52.540 didn't publish in

01:10:53.560 the last, I don't

01:10:54.700 know, 35 years.

01:10:55.960 So, even when I

01:10:56.620 got canceled, it

01:10:58.220 never missed a

01:10:58.860 day.

01:10:59.040 Seven days a

01:11:00.440 week, every

01:11:01.640 day, since

01:11:03.060 1989.

01:11:04.820 Have not missed a

01:11:06.860 single day since

01:11:09.020 1989.

01:11:10.880 35 years?

01:11:12.340 Yeah.

01:11:12.560 It'll be 35 years

01:11:13.800 in April.

01:11:14.640 So, if you'd like

01:11:18.020 to see that in my
