Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2362 CWSA 01⧸23⧸24

00:00:00.000 Wow, if you were on the locals platform right now you would have heard a great, great story.

00:00:13.980 But if you're not on the locals platform you can still have a great time because today,

00:00:19.960 yeah, today is going to be amazing. Today all you need to take it up to the level

00:00:24.040 that nobody can even understand. All you need is a cup or a mug or a glass,

00:00:27.680 a tanker gel, systeine, a canteen jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite

00:00:33.000 liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine the other

00:00:38.220 day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. And it happens now.

00:00:43.520 Go. Oh, very good. Very good. Above average. I'd give it an A minus, possibly an A.

00:00:57.680 And see how much better you feel. Let's talk about all the news. It'll be a combination of things

00:01:05.480 that are real and stuff that's fake and things that I make up completely. You won't tell the

00:01:10.800 difference, really. It's all going to sound the same. Well, San Diego has had more rain in, I guess,

00:01:17.200 a day than they usually have in a month. And it's flooding. And it's flooding so badly in San Diego

00:01:23.520 that SeaWorld is underwater. I'm not making that up. That's actually a real story. SeaWorld

00:01:31.940 is underwater. Now, what happens if the whales swim away?

00:01:39.640 Because the whales don't know the difference between the flood water and the water they're

00:01:48.060 swimming around in, right? Can't they? If the water gets high enough, can't the whales just

00:01:52.100 swim away? Can they free willy? Is willy free already? And is it just the whales? Or can all

00:02:01.040 the smaller fish that are out in those tanks? Now I know that whales are not going to, they're not

00:02:08.620 going to swim away. But it's funny to imagine, isn't it? Well, the World Economic Forum, I know a lot

00:02:16.840 of you people are, you know, like, oh, the World Economic Forum is trying to, you know, destroy the

00:02:23.820 world and take away our rights and put us in slavery. And, you know, I think it's a lot of

00:02:28.500 hyperbole, don't you? A lot of hyperbole. I'm not worried about the World Economic Forum like

00:02:34.560 all of you people are. No. No, I'm not worried about it at all. Let's see what's in the news.

00:02:43.340 The World Economic Forum thinks that coffee, coffee is putting too much CO2 into the atmosphere.

00:02:51.060 And maybe, maybe they're going to come for your coffee. Well, fuck those guys. Fuck them. Kill

00:02:58.040 them. I want them all rounded up. Put in prison. WF must be stopped. They've gone too far. Too

00:03:06.360 far. Yeah, I don't take this too seriously. Did I tell you that 2024 would be the year that

00:03:12.960 everything sounds funny? Right? Do you remember when the World Economic Forum said,

00:03:19.300 there's too much CO2 in the air? I'm trying to do a Swiss accent or Austrian or whatever the

00:03:26.960 hell it is. The scientists have said there's too much CO2 in the air. And so you must drive

00:03:36.480 your combustion engine less. Now, I have to admit that while I don't buy into that alarmism,

00:03:44.580 it at least sounds a little science-y. A little science-y. Kind of serious. But then when they come

00:03:53.180 for my coffee, I say, I don't feel like you're being serious anymore. Because you know what I'm not

00:03:59.480 going to give up? My coffee. No coffee. You're not going to take my coffee. And my cold, dead hands,

00:04:08.480 you can pry it. Anyway. If you're not watching the Dilbert comic strip, which means that you're

00:04:17.080 not subscribing either on the X platform, where you can subscribe to see it every single day,

00:04:22.660 as well as the Dilbert calendar in digital form, then you would not know that this week, Dilbert,

00:04:28.920 his company is being asked to house migrants in their cubicles.

00:04:33.080 That's not too much to ask. And it looks like they'll be housing three to five

00:04:39.960 Albanian migrants per cubicle. The women in the office are not going to be happy about it,

00:04:47.000 especially since in Albania, the national sport is rape. But Alice and Tina, the tech writer,

00:04:54.640 are not going to be too happy about it. So that's what you're missing. If you're not on the locals

00:04:58.400 platform, where you could subscribe, or on X, where you can see Dilbert as well. On the locals

00:05:05.280 platform, you see also my other comic, Robots Read News, which is far naughtier than anything you've

00:05:11.600 seen before. Well, the story about who's funding Nikki Haley gets more weird and interesting all the

00:05:20.780 time. So apparently, she's definitely been getting money from these never Trump type people.

00:05:27.120 Um, so let's see, who's giving her money? There's a, the, this is by Kyle Becker's reporting on this,

00:05:36.260 the 1630 fund, it's managed by the Arabella Advisors. You got the Hopal Fund, also managed by the Arabella

00:05:44.320 Advisors. And you got the Democracy Fund Voice founded by eBay co-founder Pierre Omadier,

00:05:52.960 Omadier, I don't know how to pronounce his last name, and Reid Hoffman, famous billionaire founder

00:05:59.020 of LinkedIn. And so both the last two billionaires are the biggest, probably the biggest two. I know

00:06:06.740 Reid's probably the biggest number one funder of Democrat stuff. So you got Democrats and never

00:06:13.780 Trumpers funding Nikki Haley. What do you think's going on there? I haven't quite put this together

00:06:21.020 yet. Have you? Is it, is it exactly what it looks like? Because what it looks like is they're

00:06:28.780 planning to take Trump out. I mean, that's what Vivek says. It's, it's what a lot of people say.

00:06:35.240 But I can't think of any other reason for it. Can you? Or are they trying, is it a clever way to

00:06:43.560 ruin Nikki Haley in case she gets in? As in, well, we could make sure we've destroyed the reputation

00:06:52.540 of somebody if they're going to be Republican. Because could you imagine if Nikki Haley actually

00:06:57.880 became president? She wouldn't have Republican support. And she's not going to have Democrat

00:07:04.780 support. So what kind of support would she have? Well, what would be the point of having

00:07:11.200 a Nikki Haley president who didn't have Democrat support and didn't have at least half of Republican

00:07:17.080 support? And it would look like she got in because the Democrats wanted her. But what part of that

00:07:23.280 would work in the real world? So it certainly argues against any kind of normal political plan,

00:07:31.660 as in, I think I'll give money to the one I want to get elected. It doesn't feel like anything like

00:07:38.060 that's happening. So if you're not donating to the person you want to get elected, what exactly are you

00:07:45.220 doing? Now, the obvious thing would be, oh, they're just trying to hurt, hurt Trump. But really,

00:07:52.340 I feel like they might know something's going to happen to Trump that we don't know.

00:08:01.860 So yeah, I just worry that they know more than we know. But it certainly looks like they're going

00:08:07.260 to try to put him in jail. And it certainly looks like if that doesn't work, there might be a plan B.

00:08:13.120 There might be. Well, there's going to be, according to End Wokeness on X, there's going to be a couple of

00:08:21.300 remakes of a couple of films. It's going to be a remake of The Wizard of Oz. And also, It's a Wonderful

00:08:27.800 Life. So we'll have remakes of those. But they will be completely non-white perspectives. So it's going

00:08:36.500 to be the all-black or people of color, LGBTQ Wizard of Oz, and It's a Wonderful Life. So what do you

00:08:45.200 think about that? I'm totally okay with it. You know who I think should be the most angry about it?

00:08:55.300 Black moviegoers. If I were a black moviegoer, I would say, well, why not make a movie that a black

00:09:06.080 person wrote? Why can't we have our own movie? Like what? It feels like too little, doesn't it?

00:09:17.760 You know, I think they could be good movies. Because the basic plots, of course, are awesome.

00:09:23.700 So I would probably watch both of those remakes. I think they could be awesome. You know, and I

00:09:30.180 don't mind, I think there's plenty of space for the black Wizard of Oz. You know, it's a big world.

00:09:35.700 It's a free market. And I'd watch them. You know, as long as they're well-made, they've got good

00:09:40.480 actors, you know, the story is good. But isn't it insulting? I mean, it feels like too little,

00:09:46.740 doesn't it? Like if you're trying to make sure that the non-white professionals get their own

00:09:55.100 thing, which is a perfectly good thing to want, I feel like they'd be better served by just having

00:10:01.920 their own thing. You know, you can't tell me that there are no black writers writing good movies.

00:10:07.780 You know, you have to go back that far to find a good script. I mean, I know it's a classic, but

00:10:12.880 anyway, you know, maybe the intentions are good. All right. So as you know, humanoid robots are on the

00:10:24.180 way. You do know that in a year, people like me will have an actual humanoid robot in our house,

00:10:33.040 right? You know, it's that close. An actual humanoid AI robot in my house, probably by the end of the

00:10:44.640 year, because I'd be an early adapter at ridiculous prices. There's no way I'm going to go a minute

00:10:52.380 without a robot. Can we just say this? The minute there's a robot that's like an actual quality robot,

00:11:00.920 I might wait for the Tesla robot, but I'm getting a robot. Is there anybody with me? You know, I realize

00:11:10.500 it's purely a price link at this point, but if you can afford it, you get a robot, right? How do you

00:11:17.920 not have a robot? Of course you're getting a robot. Well, I have a prediction for you. Apparently there'll

00:11:26.260 be a number of companies making robots, including Tesla. Tesla will have its humanoid robot coming

00:11:32.280 out pretty soon. I have a theory that this will be Elon Musk's biggest profit, the robots. By the

00:11:39.380 way, he said that too. He thinks there'll be lots of robots and it might be a bigger profit than cars.

00:11:44.500 I agree with him. But here's why I think the Tesla robot might be the most successful of the

00:11:50.780 humanoid robots. I think it's the only one you're going to be able to have sex with.

00:12:01.700 Seriously. No joke. He's going to make a fortune. Because my guess is that Elon will be the only one

00:12:12.200 who has an uncensored robot that will do anything you want it to do in the privacy of your home.

00:12:17.540 Now, you said to yourself, Scott, I'm not going to have intercourse with a robot. Well, maybe you

00:12:26.960 won't, but somebody will. You know, I laughed myself into a cry last night when I was just walking

00:12:40.460 through my house, you know, on the way from one room to another, and I suddenly had this thought.

00:12:44.960 But if I had a robot, and I was really lonely, and I didn't have anybody around, and I'm 25

00:12:59.080 instead of my current age, well, I wouldn't have intercourse with my robot because it wouldn't

00:13:06.860 have any components, you know, and there's nothing to insert into. And of course, you know, I don't

00:13:16.740 think it'll have a mouth, so. But if I'm 25, and I'm really, really horny, I'm going to put a wig

00:13:25.420 on that thing and ask for a handjob. Now, you can tell me you would never do it. Fine. Fine. Let's go

00:13:35.680 with that. You'd never think about it. You'd never do it when you were 25, and you didn't have any

00:13:40.800 options. Oh, yeah, you would. You wouldn't say to yourself, I've got a robot. I've got a fleshlight.

00:13:48.420 I've got a robot, and I've got a fleshlight. What to do? What to do? Oh, yeah. That robot will be

00:13:55.620 holding the fleshlight. You can take a bet on that one. I know it doesn't seem like you would do it.

00:14:05.520 I know not you. I don't mean you. But I was just laughing myself to death when I thought there was

00:14:11.920 any chance we wouldn't be trying to have sex with the robots. Oh, we will be trying to have sex with the

00:14:17.820 robots. Oh, yes. That will happen. There's no doubt about it. Maybe not you. I didn't say you.

00:14:26.980 But people. People will. Speaking of people, well, it looks like BMW just signed up to

00:14:36.380 have humanoid robots in its car-making facility in Germany, I guess. So, humanoid robots are on order

00:14:46.320 for real factories, and they'll be just walking around like co-workers. All right, so a WEF advisor

00:14:54.440 guy, but he's also a famous author named Yuval Harari, is getting some attention today. He goes,

00:15:02.460 he says some things about human rights are fiction that it's just imaginary, that nobody has any human

00:15:12.520 rights because they don't come from anybody. It's just fiction. It's just something we tell ourselves

00:15:17.780 we have rights. And I saw a lot of people on the internet say, my God, my God, what could be worse?

00:15:26.420 How many of you disagree with that statement? I thought it was obvious that rights are imaginary.

00:15:33.460 You don't think they are? All right, let's say yes or no. Are human rights a fiction, meaning that we

00:15:42.940 simply agree that we have the rights? I'm saying yeses. I'm saying noes. Some say God-given.

00:15:53.620 So, all right, so let's say, let's take the God-given perspective. And I think that's the,

00:15:58.280 the major pushback is God-given, wouldn't you say? Because there's not really a third alternative

00:16:05.360 where they are just sort of natural nature or something like that. That doesn't make sense.

00:16:12.180 All right, but let's say you agree they're God-given. What happens if somebody has a different God

00:16:17.300 or a different belief system? Do you, does your God-given rights require that you have the right

00:16:26.300 view of God and what God wants? And if other people disagree with you, that they have the wrong God?

00:16:34.700 So do human rights depend on having picked the right God? See, that's the problem. If it's God-given,

00:16:43.500 you have to also sort of press upon your fellow citizens that your God is the right one,

00:16:49.900 and then we get in trouble. Yeah. I was surprised, I was surprised that this was controversial

00:16:57.060 because I thought everybody knew that religion was based on belief, not about fact.

00:17:09.320 Now, how do you, I have, I have a question that I'm actually curious about

00:17:13.560 because I have an impression that I don't know if it's true or not. So I'm not a believer,

00:17:20.720 but I wish I were because I observed that it has many benefits in this life. And if you're right

00:17:26.920 about the afterlife, well, that's a pretty big benefit too. So I don't, I'm not a believer,

00:17:33.300 but I think it's a superior way to live if I could get there. You know, if I had the ability to be a

00:17:39.700 believer, I would be, because it looks like they're happier and more successful. But

00:17:46.280 how do you reconcile that faith is belief by definition with the fact that in the case of

00:17:58.360 rights, you treat it like a fact? So it's either a belief or a fact. How do you, how do you integrate

00:18:06.080 that faith as a belief by definition, but that sometimes you'll treat it like a fact

00:18:12.660 if you're, let's say, deciding who has rights and stuff?

00:18:18.700 I just, I just don't know how you do it. I'm not arguing one way or another. I'm not,

00:18:22.540 I'm not giving you an opinion. I just wondered how you do it.

00:18:29.240 So do you, is the way you do it, you say to yourself, it's a belief, but it's also true?

00:18:36.080 Is that how you reconcile that? It's a belief, but it's also true. All right. Yeah, I guess

00:18:44.320 that's what a belief is. All right. That was just for my own benefit, because I don't know how you do

00:18:48.660 that. All right. So Supreme Court ruled against Texas, as you know, Texas wanted to protect its

00:18:54.520 own border from the migrants. And the Supreme Court said, no, the federal government controls

00:19:00.360 your border. You can't protect yourself. And they're going to take down your barbed wire and let

00:19:04.620 the migrants flow in. Do you know what's wrong with that?

00:19:11.600 Everything? I think everything's wrong with that.

00:19:15.100 All right. So I've got two opinions. Number one, my legal opinion. And I know you want to hear my

00:19:22.400 legal opinion, because what would be more valuable than a non-lawyer's legal opinion? Well, the internet's

00:19:29.620 full of them, so why not mine? My guess, without knowing anything about the topic too much,

00:19:35.660 my guess is that the justices may have correctly read the law and the Constitution. So I'm not sure

00:19:44.460 that they got the wrong answer. It just doesn't work. That's my take. I'm not sure they got the wrong

00:19:52.580 answer. And I'm not sure you want a Supreme Court who makes shit up. Right? I mean, the whole point of

00:19:59.520 getting these conservative judges is that they're not going to add something to the Constitution that

00:20:04.260 isn't there. Now, the fact that they disagreed makes it kind of questionable. How can you disagree

00:20:12.580 about what's there? It'd be one thing to interpret it differently, but it's weird that the conservatives

00:20:20.420 would ever disagree, because they should just be looking at it and say, well, it's either there

00:20:24.740 or it's not, and it's either clear or it's not. But they did disagree, and Amy Coney Barrett,

00:20:32.100 allegedly a conservative, voted that the Feds can dismantle the state's self-defense.

00:20:39.600 Now, of course, this raises the question of sexism. Yes, because people say, wait a minute,

00:20:49.940 all we needed was that one female conservative to go with the other conservatives, and suddenly it

00:20:55.220 would be the other way. But why is it that the female conservative is the one who wants to keep

00:21:02.120 the border open? And now it gets interesting. You're saying to yourself, it's based on blackmail.

00:21:07.740 It's bribery. It's bribery. I'll bet it's not. I doubt that. I kind of doubt it.

00:21:17.620 I think it's probably as simple as she thought the law said something the others didn't.

00:21:26.520 But there is another really interesting layer to this, which I've mentioned before,

00:21:32.120 and I got away with it, so I'm going to do it again. And apparently Jordan Peterson has

00:21:40.280 weighed in on this. I didn't see this from him, but somebody talking about him, so I hope

00:21:44.360 I got it right. Jordan Peterson talks about something like the return of the repressed,

00:21:51.540 something about that, that the idea is that women may be more open to immigration because

00:21:59.460 the men coming across are more manly than the ones here. In other words, that women are operating on

00:22:07.640 a mating instinct to increase the number of manly men because there aren't any in America. So they might

00:22:16.180 argue that it's, you know, something about fairness and asylum and stuff like that, but that the real

00:22:23.380 base mating instinct is simply that the men coming across are more men than the ones that are here.

00:22:32.500 Yeah, are you going to disagree with Dr. Peterson?

00:22:37.020 Has that ever been a good strategy? Of all the times that people disagreed with the

00:22:43.220 scientific speculations of Jordan Peterson, did that work out really well for people in the past?

00:22:50.060 Yes. Here's what I think. I'll put my own take on it. Everything is an expression of the mating

00:22:59.500 instinct. Everything. Everything. Everything humans do is an extension of the mating instinct.

00:23:08.220 Even if you don't know it, everything is, right? The clothes you wear, the fact that I've got a big

00:23:15.840 dick in my face that looks like a microphone, none of these decisions were conscious, but we are simply

00:23:22.720 mating creatures. Mating is the thing we have to get right. Everything else is subsidiary to can you make

00:23:30.480 more of yourself because that's survival. And in theory, we optimized for survival. So why would immigration

00:23:39.680 policy be the one thing be the one thing in the world that's exempt from the mating instinct? And the answer is,

00:23:46.560 it absolutely is not. In fact, it might be the purest example of the mating instinct being expressed.

00:23:54.080 Now, of course, because there are some dumb people, are there any dumb people here today? Usually, we've got a few that get in here.

00:24:00.440 Are there any dumb people? Should I speak to the dumb people for a moment? Would the smart people mind if I just take a moment for the dumb

00:24:06.480 people? Yeah. Whenever I make generalizations, it really doesn't mean every single person.

00:24:15.280 So if I say that women in general might have a different view than men in general, that doesn't

00:24:21.360 mean you. It doesn't mean people you know. It means sort of on a general, general way, sort of an average.

00:24:29.920 So if you say to yourself, but Scott, I know a guy who doesn't think exactly like that example.

00:24:36.720 That's not contributing to the conversation because we're starting from the point of it's not applying

00:24:43.120 to everyone. All right. Now, we can go back to talking to the smart people. Are the dumb people satisfied?

00:24:50.720 Well, whether you like to jump into the comments and you're allowed, I'll give you permission.

00:24:55.920 If you're a dumb person and you're trying to keep up, you can say in the comments, Scott,

00:25:01.120 that's crazy because I know somebody who's the exception. And that will be really helping.

00:25:07.280 So go ahead and do that. Do you know why you would do that? Do you know why you would try to get

00:25:13.360 attention when your opinion is so bad? Because getting attention is part of the mating instinct.

00:25:20.720 That's right. So you can't help it. And that's my point. All right. Here's my take. Everything's

00:25:26.560 the mating instinct. Immigration is the purest example. Why do men in general want to stop

00:25:31.920 immigration? Because we don't want the competition. Because we want to have the babes in the United

00:25:38.240 States for ourselves. If you show me a border with hot women coming across, I say to yourself,

00:25:44.800 I say to you, you know, maybe we're being a little tough on this whole migration situation,

00:25:49.120 aren't we? You know, they look like they need asylum, especially the hot one. Do you see the hot one

00:25:54.640 coming swimming across with a wet t-shirt? I think that one needs some, that's a woman who needs some

00:26:00.400 asylum. She could stay in my house. Now you show me military age men who are coming over to rape my

00:26:11.360 women. What do I say? Shut that fucking border. Are you fucking crazy? This is insane. What are you

00:26:19.760 doing? And I will give you political reasons. And I'll give you economic reasons. Then I'll give you

00:26:27.280 safety reasons. And I'm lying. It's all a lie. I'm watching a bunch of men come over who are

00:26:35.600 going to fuck the women that I want to fuck. That's the whole story. And I'm watching women

00:26:41.360 like Amy Coney Barrett, who's got that little clit hard on for the men coming over. She has justified

00:26:47.120 it based on the Constitution and has no idea that she just fucked the whole country for her vagina.

00:26:53.120 That's what I think. That's what it looks like to me. Now, you might say, but no, it's really about

00:27:02.640 the law. And I say, but no, if you think anything's about the law ever, you're really not operating at a

00:27:09.760 very high level. You want to know what the levels of awareness are? Let me give you the levels of

00:27:17.360 awareness. Level of awareness number one. You're a child and you learn for the first time

00:27:23.280 that your parents lied about Santa Claus. And then you say to yourself, huh, I think people can

00:27:30.880 sometimes lie. That's level one. Actually, level one is you believe everything, you know, when you're a

00:27:37.680 child. Then you learn, wait a minute, the tooth fairy, Santa Claus? Wait a minute. And you realize that

00:27:44.640 sometimes they can lie, Easter Bunny, et cetera. That's going from zero to maybe one first level

00:27:51.120 of awareness. Then at some point you realize that they lie not just about silly stuff, not just about

00:28:00.000 Santa Claus, but they actually lie about really important things. And then you go to the next level

00:28:06.240 of awareness. And then you find out, holy cow, a whole bunch of our news stories are fake.

00:28:14.800 Oh my God, I didn't know this when I was, I thought the news was mostly real. And then you find out

00:28:20.320 that there are a whole bunch of stories that are shaded and even the facts are hidden and the context

00:28:27.120 has changed. And you realize that a whole lot of the news is fake. And then you realize it gets worse.

00:28:34.260 A lot of the data, the science, you know, and the data that we see is fake.

00:28:41.560 Is that where you are? How many of you are you at that level where you know that when you see science

00:28:48.640 and you see news, you should not assume it's true? Because it might be true and it might not be true.

00:28:54.180 That's where most of you are? All right. Here's where I'm trying to get you. I'm trying to get you to the

00:29:01.180 layer above that. I'm trying to take you up a level. At the level above it, you'll know none of

00:29:09.060 it's true. It can't be. You'll know none of it's true and that it can't be true. That's where you

00:29:20.720 need to get. None of it's true and it can't be. How do I know that? I used to be in the business of

00:29:28.040 creating data that other people would have to use to make decisions. Was it ever real? Nope.

00:29:34.780 It was my job to support the decisions that had already been made

00:29:38.820 or to support guessing by making it look like the guess had some basis to it or to, you know, make the

00:29:47.740 department look good or that sort of thing. No, all information is fake because it's all motivated.

00:29:53.980 Whoever is coming up with the information has a story to tell. That's it. Once you learn

00:29:59.540 it's all fake, you go to a different level. So if you're still believing some of the news

00:30:06.300 is true, good luck. Good luck. By the way, I always see the Jewish conspiracy people come

00:30:15.580 in every morning. I've got a question for you. If you think there's a global Jewish conspiracy,

00:30:24.220 and I'll just ask you this question. Would you agree that there is such a thing as liberal

00:30:31.780 Jewish people and conservative Jewish people? Of course. Of course, you know that. So they all got

00:30:39.920 together. So all the liberal Jews and the conservative Jews, they all got together.

00:30:45.480 And it's all part of a big conspiracy. Is that what you think? And why is it that this alleged

00:30:52.160 conspiracy for, I don't know, hundreds of years, that there's never been a whistleblower?

00:30:58.820 Never a whistleblower. Not one. There wasn't a liberal who didn't like what the conservatives

00:31:04.100 were doing or a conservative who didn't like what the liberals were doing, like everywhere in the rest

00:31:08.540 of the world all the time, forever. Not a single person said, you know what? I was in the meeting

00:31:14.260 where we planned to do whatever it is you think is being done. No whistleblowers. Really. Not a single

00:31:21.660 whistleblower. And yet there are whistleblowers for everything else. All right. That's just for you

00:31:28.780 to think about. All right. So yes, I think the question on the border is largely sexual. I also think

00:31:36.360 that BLM was largely a mating event. The Black Lives Matter stuff. I think that female approval of

00:31:48.640 Black Lives Matter was probably a mating instinct sort of a thing. All right. And again, doesn't mean

00:31:58.700 every person. Doesn't mean you. Right. That's just for the dumb people. All right. Cenk Uyger, who's running

00:32:06.960 for president without knowing he's a naturalized citizen, so he can't run for president. But I think

00:32:11.880 I love it anyway. I have a kind of weird appreciation for Cenk, because I think his heart is in the right

00:32:22.720 place. I think so. I mean, you never know. But he looks like he actually wants things to be better.

00:32:29.900 So the fact that he has a different idea of how to get there, I'm much more forgiving on that,

00:32:36.340 because I don't think his intentions are in the wrong place. Right. Yeah, we could disagree on what

00:32:41.980 makes sense. But and I'm seeing your comments. So I understand that you have a different view of it.

00:32:47.600 But, you know, sometimes it's sometimes it's kind of a question of, do you think you're good at

00:32:54.780 judging character? You know, we all think we are. I judge that his character is good. And so,

00:33:02.360 therefore, his intentions are good. But I could be wrong. I could be wrong about anybody. But here's

00:33:08.120 what he said and how I disagreed. He was talking about the Gaza situation in the West Bank. And he says,

00:33:15.700 the occupation, as he calls it, is morally wrong and completely indefensible. Saying the Palestinians

00:33:21.460 cannot be trusted to govern themselves is deeply racist. Would you agree that it's racist to say

00:33:30.980 that the Palestinians can't be trusted to govern themselves, which I think the better way to say

00:33:36.780 that is Israel doesn't trust that they would be safe if it happened? Is it racist?

00:33:42.520 What do you think? Well, I would say it would be racist if they were expelling from their country,

00:33:52.060 the people who are also Palestinian and look like them and prayed like them and had the same genes.

00:33:59.520 So clearly, there are plenty of people living in peace in Israel. So if it were a race,

00:34:06.300 that would not be the case. So clearly, it's a security problem. And the way that they're dealing

00:34:12.640 with a security problem is they don't know who are the good guys and who are the bad guys. They

00:34:16.800 can't tell the difference. So but what if it was? What if it was racist? Because you could make the

00:34:26.940 argument. I think it's primarily just risk assessment and politics. And what they want is mostly the

00:34:34.380 people who don't, you know, the people who want to kill them, they'd like to have less contact with

00:34:40.180 them. Seems normal. So here's what I said. I haven't been double canceled yet. So we'll see how this goes.

00:34:47.660 I posted back to that and I said that racism is morally and ethically acceptable for self-defense.

00:34:55.060 Let me say it again, because you might think you've misheard it.

00:34:57.700 Racism is morally and ethically acceptable for self-defense, because the standard for self-defense

00:35:05.260 is whatever you think you need to do. That's it. It's whatever you think you need to do.

00:35:11.260 It doesn't matter why.

00:35:14.500 Now, you could break the law by doing whatever you need to do, and then the law will take care of you.

00:35:21.200 And I agree with the law. The law must be obeyed. But if you're talking about ethics and morality,

00:35:28.600 that's a separate domain from the law. We'd like them to be compatible, but they're not always.

00:35:34.820 So if you have a choice between staying alive in your opinion, not mine, but your own opinion,

00:35:42.460 that you have to do something racist to stay alive, then you should definitely do it.

00:35:46.320 But to be clear, racism in any other domain outside of self-defense is abhorrent.

00:35:54.920 So if you're being racist in your personal life, your business life, who you rent to, who you hire,

00:36:01.360 all of that stuff, completely, you know, I disavow all of that. That would be a bad way to run a country,

00:36:09.660 bad way to be a human being, and bad in every sense. But in the very narrow domain of self-defense,

00:36:16.580 yeah, you can be as racist as you want. And people really need to understand that, or they'll die.

00:36:22.360 The classic example is the, was it Jesse Jackson saying that he might cross the road if he saw a

00:36:30.080 young black man in a hoodie or something? You know, that classic case. Why? Is Jesse Jackson a racist?

00:36:36.800 Well, yes. In that exact example, he would be, by his own definition, I think. But he would also say,

00:36:43.620 you know, I hate it, but I'd stay alive. Yeah, I'm paraphrasing, of course. So yes, if you have

00:36:49.980 any reason to think you'd be in trouble, you get to do what you need to do. Totally. Yeah. If you were

00:36:56.860 an Israeli citizen, and you were walking down the street of old Gaza, and you were just looking like

00:37:04.080 a, you know, let's say you were obviously an Israeli citizen, Orthodox Jew, and you were just walking

00:37:11.480 down the streets in Gaza before the war, would you feel safe? Or would you feel all racist? Because

00:37:18.400 you thought that maybe they would hurt you because they're not big fans of yours. Well, it would be

00:37:23.560 racist if you felt afraid, wouldn't it? By definition. Because you'd say, I think I'm afraid

00:37:30.840 because they're Palestinian, and they have a certain sense. No, you, it would be racist. But it would also

00:37:37.480 be smart to stay away from that town. So the trouble is, if you get too hung up on whether it's technically

00:37:46.740 racist or not, you're missing the larger point that it doesn't matter. Is everybody on the same page

00:37:54.040 there? We could argue about whether it is or whether it's not, but it doesn't matter, because you're going

00:38:00.360 to do whatever you need to do to stay safe, and to keep your family safe. And nobody can tell you

00:38:04.720 that's immoral. You could be wrong. You could be wrong. It's still your choice. Yeah, it's not ethically

00:38:13.140 or anything. So when Elon Musk went with Ben Shapiro recently, just the other day, visited Auschwitz,

00:38:24.040 and I believe he had a quote I saw that said, you know, having visited Auschwitz, he understands why

00:38:29.620 Israel had to act decisively, you know, in Gaza, why they couldn't let that stand. And

00:38:37.760 yeah, I think that's where everybody gets when you have that clear question about self-defense versus,

00:38:48.460 is this a little bit too much DEI? Yeah, self-defense wins. Speaking of which, there are, I guess,

00:38:58.520 black Democrats in Chicago. One of them is a DEI consultant, which is interesting. And they're calling

00:39:06.620 for controls on immigration. So even the black citizens of America who are DEI employees,

00:39:15.860 their very job is to get rid of racism. And they're saying, you need to close this border.

00:39:23.740 Now, what they don't say is all these brown people coming in, which is not what they're worrying

00:39:29.780 about, because they're not thinking about brown or anything else. They're just thinking,

00:39:34.660 taking our resources. So if they were not black Democrat DEI consultants, we'd be calling them

00:39:41.760 racist. But because they are, we can see them somewhat clearly as just people who are under

00:39:47.420 threat. So are these black people being racist? Absolutely not. Or, better yet, what's the difference?

00:39:56.320 What's the difference? If they think they're threatened, they're, these are my American

00:40:03.400 citizens, be they Democrats or DEI consultants. If I rank them in importance, they're, they're at the

00:40:10.240 top of importance, because they're Americans. They're on my team, should be. And we would all like to be

00:40:17.540 safe. And I would like these people in Chicago, be they black or white or Democrat or Republican

00:40:23.820 or DEI consultants, which I'm not a big fan of, I want them to be safe. And if they, if they think

00:40:30.340 that closing that border makes them safe, does it matter if it's racist? No, it doesn't matter at all.

00:40:36.980 Yeah. Racism and self-defense just shouldn't be in the same conversation. So just get it out of

00:40:41.540 there. So I agree with the Democrats and the DEI consultant in this case.

00:40:47.860 Jordan Peterson, he's in a lot of news today. He always, he's, since he does more interesting

00:40:55.660 things than you and I do, he's in the news a lot, sort of like Elon Musk. But anyway, he did a video

00:41:02.420 in which he did an interview with somebody talking about the German protests, the farmers. Now, how many

00:41:10.240 of you even know that there's a massive German protest? How many of you even know that? Okay.

00:41:22.260 So most of the people watching this are pretty well informed. By the way, is anybody also on one of

00:41:27.720 the other platforms? Because their comments have stopped. If anybody has a minute, can you look at

00:41:34.560 the, look at YouTube or Rumble or X? The comments stopped coming through on the studio. I can see

00:41:43.080 all the comments on Locals. Anyway, if they start again, I'll let you know. Live chat studio.

00:41:52.280 Oh, are they back? No. Yeah, it looks like they're, I think I'm still live though, right? Am I still live

00:41:59.220 on the other platforms? Oh, you can see the comments? So I guess other people could see them,

00:42:04.700 but I can't. All right. All right. Well, I'll continue. Anyway, Jordan Peterson points out that

00:42:10.680 on YouTube, he, he'd accrued only 50,000 views in 14 hours, which would be enough views to make the

00:42:18.400 rest of us jealous because it's so many. But for him, it's nothing. You know, normal would be maybe

00:42:24.300 three quarters of a million or something. So according to Dr. Peterson, it seems obvious

00:42:29.380 that YouTube is suppressing this content specifically. Why would YouTube be suppressing

00:42:35.860 German farmer protests of an American, not American, but Canadian psychologist? Why would they be doing

00:42:45.560 that? Yeah, it doesn't matter. They're doing it. There's no doubt they're doing it. So any

00:42:53.520 pretense you thought about free speech in America, it's kind of an illusion. Would you agree? We don't

00:43:01.940 really have free speech in a practical sense. We have it in the, well, not even in the technical

00:43:09.460 sense because the government does lean on the platforms to suppress speech. So no, we actually

00:43:15.960 don't have free speech. Do not. And in fact, a lot of the people who tried to exercise their free

00:43:22.580 speech are in jail right now. That's another topic. Let's see. How many, here's a little test

00:43:30.960 for you. General knowledge test. Without looking it up, what is the population of Sweden in rough

00:43:37.460 numbers? Just take a guess. Population of Sweden, rough numbers. Go. 3 million, 10 million, 15,

00:43:45.260 13. Oh, those are pretty good guesses. Yeah, I think it's around 10 million. It's about 10

00:43:50.420 million. But your guesses are quite, quite well informed. They were all in the range. I'm

00:43:55.440 impressed. So how many bomb attacks would you expect? So 10 million would be, say, the size of

00:44:05.320 New York City, right? How big is New York City? 10.7? 8 million? Depends which part you're measuring,

00:44:14.160 I guess. So 8 to 10 million. So roughly, Sweden is about the size of New York City.

00:44:21.400 How many bomb attacks in New York City would you consider a crisis in a year? Bomb attacks. One.

00:44:30.040 One, right? One would be a lot, right? Suppose you had 10 a year. Imagine 10 bomb attacks in

00:44:40.360 one year just in New York City. You wouldn't be able to live there. Yeah. How many bomb attacks

00:44:47.860 do you think that there were in Sweden that would include things like hand grenades and,

00:44:52.580 you know, things that blow up in the past year? 134. 134 things blew up in Sweden. Only 10 million

00:45:03.960 people. Sweden apparently has just fallen to the migrants. Yeah, the migrants have basically just

00:45:12.360 ruined Sweden. I don't know if it'll ever be the same. So I think Sweden's just gone. Like,

00:45:18.220 I don't think I would even travel there at this point. So that's a little warning for you in case

00:45:25.780 you're wondering if our uncontrolled migration has any potential risk. Yeah, it does.

00:45:34.640 Representative Clay Higgins from Louisiana says Biden is staging a civil war by pulling down those

00:45:41.820 barriers in Texas, the ones that are Texas put up to try to protect itself from the migrants.

00:45:48.220 And

00:45:49.500 what do you think? Do you think Texas and the federal government will end up

00:45:57.280 coming to blows? I think not. Because I think Americans just wouldn't do it.

00:46:05.800 Like, who would execute that order? Like, seriously, who would execute the order?

00:46:11.660 If you're in the National Guard and you're standing there looking at your, you know, you're basically

00:46:18.380 your other American in another uniform who's just doing their job and you're just doing your job,

00:46:23.540 are you going to shoot them? I don't think we're anywhere near that. I think the soldiers would just

00:46:32.280 lay down their guns and say, look, are you fucking crazy? We're not going to shoot these guys.

00:46:37.300 That's crazy. So I don't think it's going to turn into a civil war. I just don't think our minds are

00:46:46.340 anywhere near that. We're hundreds of miles away from that mentally.

00:46:50.920 So here's a question, which I need a fact check on this. I saw a question by Benny Johnson on the X

00:47:00.420 platform. Can you tell me if this is true? So he makes an assumption. I think it might be true.

00:47:09.260 So I'm not doubting it. I'm just doubting my own memory. So check my memory, right? This is what

00:47:15.580 Benny Johnson says. In the post, he says, I'm asking honestly, without bias or preconditions,

00:47:21.600 when in American election history have all five swing states simultaneously stopped counting

00:47:28.120 ballots on election night? Is there any explanation for this other than centrally organized fraud?

00:47:35.720 Now, here's my question. I was somewhat unaware that it was only the five swing states and that it was

00:47:43.420 all of the five swing states. Is that true? There was no other state and it was a hundred percent of

00:47:50.580 the swing states. How did I get to this point without knowing that? Because he perfectly formulates

00:47:59.500 the question. When you put it that way, it's obviously fraud. I guess I had been resisting.

00:48:05.820 I'd been resisting the idea that you could tell it was fraud because they decided to count votes the

00:48:13.060 next day. If that's the only thing I knew, I'd say, well, it's suspicious. But I mean, in a big

00:48:22.180 bureaucracy, some states will do it different than others. But somehow I was unaware of this context.

00:48:29.940 I knew that some of them were swing states. But I didn't know it was all five all at the same time.

00:48:39.300 If it's all five at the same time, it's definitely fraud. Are we on the same page?

00:48:46.000 So this is a perfect example of something I say a lot. A lot of the times when you think people are

00:48:52.940 disagreeing, they're not. It's just that the fake news got to somebody and it didn't get to somebody

00:48:58.800 else. And that's it. So in this case, I think I was a victim of fake news or maybe I didn't do my own

00:49:05.500 work. Because it never occurred to me that it was all five and only the five and at the same time.

00:49:12.660 Somehow those three facts never were in my brain at the same time until Benny Johnson put it in that

00:49:19.500 form. Yeah. Scott is waking up is I block everybody who says that. Yeah. I'll let you go this time

00:49:31.300 because I don't know how to block you in real time. But everybody that says I'm waking up, I block.

00:49:37.580 So don't do it jokingly because you get blocked. All right. Only because I take it as an insult.

00:49:44.880 All right. I know you're kidding. It's okay. She was kidding.

00:49:49.500 All right. Yeah. I think the reasonable belief because the government is guilty until proven

00:50:00.720 isn't. If you're the government, you have to prove it was legitimate and the evidence suggests

00:50:11.360 otherwise. Yeah. All right. So Trump said directly and out loud that the reason he's made up his

00:50:22.580 mind or to never want to have a central bank digital currency, the so-called CBDC, is that Vivek basically

00:50:31.800 filled him in and told him what the risk was. And then Trump said, okay, I'm on board. Have you ever

00:50:38.200 seen that before? The simple transparency of Trump is like a beauty to behold? Oh, I didn't really

00:50:48.560 understand that topic. And then Vivek explained it to me. So now here's my opinion. That was just

00:50:54.380 beautiful. Wasn't it? Because, you know, I don't even know much about the topic. So I can't say I have a

00:51:03.200 strong opinion other than eventually we will have a digital currency. There's no question about it.

00:51:08.920 Yeah. We're not going to be paying stuff with paper in a hundred years. It's just not going to happen.

00:51:13.560 So I don't know what will happen, but there's going to be a digital currency someday. But in the meantime,

00:51:19.440 maybe you want to forestall that. And I can understand that. I wouldn't oppose you wanting that.

00:51:24.780 But just watching how the sausage was made and then not having a problem with it, it's just a purifying

00:51:36.320 feeling. You know, don't you always assume that what's happening is some, like, weird behind-the-scenes

00:51:41.420 negotiating and somebody got blackmailed and somebody doesn't understand and somebody's taking

00:51:47.060 a bribe and, you know, it's the, you know, all that stuff. And then sometimes it's just this. Oh,

00:51:55.380 Vivek is super smart. He explained it to me. So now here's my opinion. And Vivek's really smart.

00:52:05.320 What's better than that? Right? What is better than that? Nothing. That is government operating

00:52:13.500 perfectly. Full transparency, a poor opinion that was corrected by a better opinion. And then he

00:52:21.460 explains what happened and when. Pow. It's funny. It's such a small thing. You know, it's just a

00:52:30.280 throwaway thing he said at a rally. But there are very few things that have made me feel better about

00:52:35.800 the country than watching exactly how that decision got made. Yes. Put your smart people

00:52:43.860 in charge of the complicated stuff. So Trump says, I mean, somebody asked the question,

00:52:52.180 well, a lot of people ask, do you think that Trump would be able to deal with Vivek in terms

00:52:57.760 of Trump's ego? And I told you, you don't understand Trump. He loves smart people. And if

00:53:06.540 they're smarter than he is, he loves them even more. He's very consistent about that. And so Vivek

00:53:12.540 was just smarter than him on that topic, you know, being specific on that topic. So he went with a

00:53:19.440 smart guy. How much do you love that? So Trump says a very small chance that DeSantis would be in his

00:53:29.920 cabinet. Not that there's, you know, not that he wouldn't do a good job. But I do love the fact

00:53:36.540 that DeSantis came through this process with so much respect. Don't you love that? Like you don't

00:53:44.660 really think a political process ends with anybody looking good, especially if they didn't win.

00:53:50.500 But he set a standard that I really appreciated. You know, I'll say it again. What he added to the

00:53:59.620 country, DeSantis, simply by running and giving us the essentially validating Trump as the

00:54:07.320 Republicans' genuine choice. That's so important. I mean, it's the difference between a civil war and

00:54:14.200 not having one. It might be that big a difference. And of course, Vivek, the same thing. So what

00:54:21.400 Vivek and DeSantis did for the country in our system is just hard to underestimate. It's just

00:54:30.220 huge. So debt of gratitude. Glenn Greenwald is showing us the way. He had some event where he was

00:54:38.660 debating with some leftists about January 6th, whether it was an insurrection. And you have to

00:54:45.760 hear him. I wouldn't say it was joking, mocking, but he's so good at making his points, it just makes

00:54:52.580 other people look stupid. So here was the things he was saying to people who believed there was a,

00:54:58.500 I think one of the Krasensteins was there and somebody else.

00:55:01.060 He noted that Trump didn't resist leaving the building, like when his term was over,

00:55:09.200 which would be a weird thing to do if you're trying to cling to power. Why would you leave

00:55:13.320 the building? That's the dumbest thing you'd ever do if you were going to do an insurrection,

00:55:18.040 leave the building. And then he points out he didn't try to activate any military force.

00:55:24.820 Who tries to do an insurrection without trying to get at least some kind of military force

00:55:33.420 on your side? You know, even if it's your, you know, whatever, your personal security or something.

00:55:40.520 Like, I don't even thought, I don't think the record even shows that he talked to his own secret

00:55:45.140 service. Imagine trying to be a dictator and not colluding with your own protection, your own secret

00:55:52.620 service, who are dedicated probably to prevent you from being a dictator. So the, so the guys in the

00:56:00.480 room with guns who would literally shoot you if you, you know, actually tried to become a dictator,

00:56:07.820 I hope they would, wouldn't they? Can somebody give you a fact check? If the secret service saw you

00:56:14.440 actually becoming a dictator, wouldn't they take care of it?

00:56:19.580 Now you're saying no because they would be so professional, they'd be so professional that

00:56:26.440 they would support him even if he went full Hitler and started rounding up his, rounding up and

00:56:31.560 murdering his opponents. They would just still just do their job because they're professionals. No,

00:56:36.960 they wouldn't. Come on. No, they wouldn't. They would prevent him. So one way you can know for sure

00:56:44.680 that he wasn't planning any kind of real insurrection was that, that he didn't, he didn't work it out

00:56:53.140 with anybody in his security detail. There's no evidence of that. That'd be the first thing you do

00:56:58.440 because you can't have the enemy being your protection. It's the very first thing you'd have

00:57:03.900 to do. So yeah, and he didn't arrest his opponents, which is a basic thing you do if you're a dictator.

00:57:10.540 If Trump wanted to stay in power, he would have just had Biden arrested, but he had no power to do

00:57:19.460 that. He had no power to, well, nobody would have done it. So watching the people who have been

00:57:28.220 brainwashed into thinking January 6th was an insurrection is going to be real fun because if

00:57:34.960 you take the Glenn Greenwald model, and I think we should, we should mock it and make them explain

00:57:41.440 how that could be an insurrection. Now, the best argument I've heard for the insurrection

00:57:46.680 hoax believers is that he had those fake electors. This is what Bill Maher says. And the way that

00:57:57.020 argument goes like this, he had fake electors, so therefore that's how he was trying to take over

00:58:04.740 the country. Now, anybody who knows the situation would say something like this. Well, the documentation

00:58:14.920 shows that they believe they were simply placeholders to maintain the right to pursue the, you know,

00:58:22.660 the legal challenge. It was just a placeholder thing. And they weren't, they weren't replacement

00:58:27.660 for or fake. They were simply sort of on hold to show that you were, you're putting a stake in the

00:58:33.540 ground that you're challenging it. Now, what does Bill Maher say about that? Well, he wouldn't let

00:58:40.000 you finish the sentence. He would talk over you. I guarantee you, you'll never get to finish that

00:58:46.660 sentence. I saw him doing that to somebody the other day. Now, suppose you say, what if they were

00:58:54.920 fake? How in the world were fake electors going to take over a country? Was the Supreme Court going

00:59:02.360 to say, oh yeah, fake electors are fine? Like there's no way to connect the dots that that process could

00:59:10.220 have been a way to take over the country. The only thing it could have been is exactly what they said

00:59:16.360 it was. A bunch of lawyers said, you know what? We'd have a stronger case if he had some alternate

00:59:21.760 electors and, you know, otherwise we won't use them. So, uh, would they strong on the real delegates?

00:59:31.940 Probably if it was a real insurrection, they would. I don't know if they did. Maybe somebody did.

00:59:40.220 Uh, don't argue with analogies. That's a bad way to go. All right. Uh, Russia apparently is ruling

00:59:49.300 out any peace talks in the Ukraine and why wouldn't they? Because apparently the money is going to dry

00:59:55.820 up from America unless something changes and that would guarantee that Russia could have anything they

01:00:01.180 want with, um, Ukraine. Kim.com has a, uh, provocative, uh, prediction. If I have it right,

01:00:12.960 he believes that, uh, Victoria Nuland is the real president of, uh, Ukraine, meaning that America

01:00:19.020 is really in charge and that she's the point person over there. And, uh, Kim.com believes that

01:00:24.860 she might be putting together a, some kind of false flag operation to blow up their own nuclear power

01:00:32.260 plant. With the thinking being that if Ukraine blows up their own nuclear power plant, that

01:00:40.780 that would force NATO to get involved because it would look like Russia did it. And then if NATO gets

01:00:48.300 involved, maybe Ukraine can be saved. Uh, they already said that it's been ongoing. Yeah. Too on the nose.

01:00:58.700 I don't know if any of that's true. Um, I'm not, uh, I'm not backing that theory myself,

01:01:04.080 but it's out there. Um, but I, all I have to say about Ukraine is how could Putin possibly lose at this

01:01:11.380 point? Would it be fair to say we started a fight? We didn't need to start. In other words,

01:01:17.720 probably, probably it was our own damn fault. We fought too long and killed too many people that

01:01:23.480 didn't need to die. And when there was a time that we could have made peace, we let it pass.

01:01:32.160 I think Biden did all of that. I think he basically gave away Ukraine. Do you know who could save Ukraine?

01:01:41.340 Only Trump while running for president. Because if Putin doesn't control all of Ukraine,

01:01:47.720 before the, before, let's say Trump or Republican takes over, um, it might be too late because I think

01:01:56.200 that Trump would threaten him and say, look, you are going to talk peace or will, you know, rain hell

01:02:03.220 upon you that you've never seen sort of thing. And he'd probably actually believe it was going to

01:02:07.420 happen. And he'd probably adjust. Yeah. All right. So California Senate race is funny because it's so

01:02:17.200 pathetic. So the people running for the, to be Senator, uh, for California would be, uh, Adam Schiff,

01:02:24.600 Katie Porter, Barbara Lee, and one Republican, Steve Garvey, who doesn't have a chance because it's

01:02:30.560 California. The funny part is, uh, all of the people are under 25% support.

01:02:35.760 They're all under 25%. They're so odious that, that, that, that nobody wants any of them, I think.

01:02:45.380 But what's funny is you have a straight white male allegedly running against a woman and a woman of

01:02:53.220 color. How in the world can Cal, can California elect the straight white guy when there's a woman and a

01:03:02.300 woman of color in the same party? Can they? Yeah. Yeah. I think Gavin was a special, special case.

01:03:13.900 If Adam Schiff wins this thing, I'm going to think the race is rigged. It just doesn't seem like that's

01:03:20.540 possible. Southern New Hampshire voters today. Why does anybody care about New Hampshire?

01:03:27.500 Why does anybody care about that? It's such a funny little weird state. And so few people vote the,

01:03:37.980 the fact that we give it any credibility and all this is sort of hilarious. But to me, it's like,

01:03:43.400 uh, the, all the news people are trying to milk a bull. It's like, all right, we know you can only

01:03:51.260 milk cows. Bulls don't have udders, but all we have is this bull. So let's milk it.

01:04:02.940 That's what the news feels like. Okay. We all know that New Hampshire shouldn't matter.

01:04:07.820 It shouldn't be important, but it's the news. So we got to talk about it. Yeah. Let's talk about

01:04:15.980 how we can milk that bull. All right. It's like squeezing orange juice out of a turd. You just

01:04:23.300 can't do it no matter how, how hard you squeeze. So, uh, the Democrats using their technique of

01:04:32.160 blaming, uh, Republicans for whatever they do are going to blame Trump for his many miscues in talking,

01:04:39.340 uh, for having, uh, for having cognitive decline. Uh, that's right. The supporters of Joe Biden

01:04:47.100 have decided that a good fruitful attack for their side would be to attack Trump for his mental decline

01:04:56.460 because he sometimes mixes up names.

01:04:58.620 They are so freaking consistent. Uh, and again, I have to apologize to Tucker Carlson

01:05:08.780 for what he said that they always do what they blame you of doing. I didn't think he meant always.

01:05:15.100 It just sounded like a weird, you know, over generalization. Well, not always, not, not every

01:05:21.980 single time. Yep. It's every single time, no matter how absurd it is, they'll do it anyway. And this is

01:05:29.740 the one that sort of points it out. Imagine the absurdity of defending Joe Biden on a cognitive level,

01:05:38.300 but they're doing it. They're doing it.

01:05:44.060 And I guess we're worried about the Canadian border.

01:05:47.260 So you heard about, uh, there were a few hundred, um, people on the, uh, terrorist watch list that

01:05:52.700 got through the Southern border. So thank goodness the Canadian border doesn't have that kind of

01:05:59.340 problem, right? Because we had, I think a couple hundred people or so, something 100 or 200 that

01:06:05.180 were actually on the terrorist watch list that came up through the Southern border. Can you imagine if we

01:06:11.020 had like that many people on the Northern border, like a few hundred people on the watch list?

01:06:17.340 Checking the news, uh, there were 500 of them. Uh, yeah. So, uh, actually, it turns out that,

01:06:27.500 uh, by a magnet, an order of magnitude, there are more terrorists coming across the Northern border.

01:06:34.620 You know what I worry about? I don't worry about the ones that came across the Southern border,

01:06:42.780 because they might be the dumb terrorists. They wouldn't be able to pull something off.

01:06:46.940 But every terrorist that comes through the Northern border, I say to myself,

01:06:50.780 well, there's a terrorist who figured out how to do it right. Now that terrorist I worry about,

01:06:56.780 because if you came in through Canada, you've got some game. If you came in through the Southern

01:07:02.300 border, I don't think you thought it through because, you know, Canada, it's right there.

01:07:07.740 Just walk across. I guess it works on either border. All right, ladies and gentlemen,

01:07:15.340 this episode of Coffee with Scott Ems has been brought to you by the best book ever written. It's

01:07:20.460 called Reframe Your Brain by me. And we're in phase two now. Phase one is launching the book. Phase two is

01:07:29.020 a bunch of people who bought it and read it, especially for Christmas. And now the messages

01:07:33.500 are coming in. I had to buy five more. My neighbor got one for me for Christmas and just bought seven

01:07:42.380 for their family. So it is, and people are posting that it's changing their lives. So I say this

01:07:51.580 because I'm marketing a book, but also it's completely true. You can read the reviews and see it

01:07:55.900 yourself. It's changing lives. Now, there are a lot of books that say a lot of fun and interesting

01:08:01.100 things. And you say to yourself, well, that's some good advice in that book. But do you do it?

01:08:07.180 So what's different about Reframe Your Brain is that the reframes are literally one sentence each.

01:08:12.540 So if you find a reframe that fits your situation, you just have to read one sentence. And it will either

01:08:18.060 change the way you think of the situation or not. But that's your, that's your total investment

01:08:22.780 is a sentence. So that's why people are using it successfully.

01:08:29.660 Because it's so easy to implement and there's no downside. You just read a sentence. It works

01:08:34.700 or it doesn't. So that can change your life. So ladies and gentlemen, that's all we got for now.

01:08:39.500 Thanks for joining on the YouTube Rumble and X platforms. Sorry, your comments got locked up there,

01:08:45.980 but I guess you can see your own comments. And I will see you tomorrow. Same place, same time.
