Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2366 CWSA 01⧸27⧸24

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:12.400 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time.

00:00:16.340 But if you'd like to take it up to a level that can barely be described with human language,

00:00:21.620 all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tanker chalice or stein, a canteen jug or

00:00:26.520 a flask, a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:30.180 I like coffee.

00:00:33.140 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day, the thing that

00:00:37.440 makes everything better.

00:00:38.420 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.

00:00:41.000 Go.

00:00:47.280 So good.

00:00:50.740 So good.

00:00:52.200 Well, I'm going to start with some palate cleansers.

00:00:54.600 Small little news bits that are kind of interesting, then we'll get into the border and all the

00:01:02.340 big, big stories and the politics and stuff.

00:01:05.420 First, two science-y things from Brian Ramelli.

00:01:10.580 He notes that scientists from the, someplace in the UK, doesn't matter, they found a massive

00:01:17.340 cosmic structure that's a giant, almost a perfect circle of galaxies and galaxy clusters that spans 1.3 billion light

00:01:29.080 years in diameter.

00:01:30.640 It's bigger than any known structure and, in theory, could not exist.

00:01:35.140 We don't know anything about anything.

00:01:40.160 Have you noticed that?

00:01:41.500 Just when we think we know about, you know, the Big Bang or really anything, turns out, nope, we don't know anything about anything.

00:01:50.360 So I don't know why there would be a gigantic 1.3 billion light year, perfect circle of galaxies and galaxy clusters.

00:01:58.640 And apparently, all of our theories can't explain that.

00:02:05.500 So wouldn't it be interesting if someday we find that there are aliens, but the aliens are like the size of planets?

00:02:15.160 There's nothing that would preclude that, right?

00:02:18.220 Couldn't the aliens be, you know, like a mile tall?

00:02:22.620 Or is that impossible?

00:02:25.360 Maybe it's impossible because of physics.

00:02:27.720 Yeah, there's some, well, but of course our physics assumes that it's like a humanoid body, you know, organic body.

00:02:34.580 If it's not organic, if it's something else, maybe it could be so strong that it could be as big as King Kong.

00:02:41.900 Wouldn't that be cool?

00:02:43.400 Well, Brian also reports he's working on an app store that's open source for AI apps.

00:02:50.060 Does that sound like a small story or a big story?

00:02:54.220 That is a gigantic, potentially, story.

00:02:57.640 Because right now the apps that you have are kind of tied to your phone.

00:03:02.560 And Apple is going to take, what does Apple take?

00:03:04.920 30% of your profit from any app.

00:03:09.420 But what's going to happen to the profitability of apps when you don't have to pay the phone provider for it?

00:03:16.100 And how in the world can Apple survive as a company if there's an open source app store for AI and AI prices come down to zero and you don't need all the fancy programming?

00:03:28.920 Because we're very close to the phone.

00:03:30.500 Here's what I think is going to happen.

00:03:32.680 I've said this for a long time, but we finally have the technology to do it.

00:03:38.360 Your phone should turn into a commodity.

00:03:43.400 Right now it's a luxury good.

00:03:45.560 But it should turn into a commodity that is nothing but a screen and Wi-Fi and, you know, a touchscreen.

00:03:53.380 And maybe some Bluetooth.

00:03:55.440 That's about it.

00:03:56.360 Cameras.

00:03:56.720 But basically the processing should be some AI kind of thing where it's never the same each time you use it.

00:04:05.060 You should be able to just talk to it or type on it and tell it what you want.

00:04:08.420 And it just figures out what you want as you go.

00:04:11.880 So that's the future.

00:04:14.440 And it could be good.

00:04:16.180 All right.

00:04:16.300 Here's a little life advice.

00:04:20.000 And this one will actually just change some lives.

00:04:24.580 Most of you not.

00:04:25.560 Most of you will just say, oh, that's mildly interesting.

00:04:28.840 But some of you are going to listen to this and it will completely change your experience for the rest of your life.

00:04:34.060 Just a few of you.

00:04:35.340 We'll see if it's one of you.

00:04:37.160 It goes like this.

00:04:39.280 It's a reframe.

00:04:41.180 Did you ever have one of those days where you're not one of those people who maybe has clinical depression,

00:04:46.320 but you just one day you feel this overwhelming sense of, I don't know, depression and dread and hopelessness?

00:04:54.660 Has anybody ever had that?

00:04:56.380 And you're not a clinical depression person.

00:04:59.760 It's just for whatever damn reason you wake up and, oh, my God, everything's bad today.

00:05:04.760 So I had one of those days the other day.

00:05:09.060 But I have a reframe that I've used several times successfully, and I used it again successfully.

00:05:14.180 And the reframe goes like this.

00:05:15.940 I don't have depression.

00:05:19.060 There's nothing extra wrong with the world.

00:05:22.140 I have a dopamine shortage.

00:05:25.420 As soon as I told myself it was a dopamine shortage, I knew exactly what to do about it.

00:05:31.900 I was like, oh, dopamine.

00:05:33.600 If it's a dopamine shortage, and it's not really about all the things in the world that I think it is,

00:05:39.580 then I just go get some more dopamine.

00:05:41.160 So I take my dog to the park, walk around in the sun, eat some food I like, make sure I'm hydrated.

00:05:51.040 Boom.

00:05:51.980 Problem solved.

00:05:53.840 Problem solved.

00:05:55.460 The moment you reframe it as a dopamine shortage, it gives you the menu of solutions.

00:06:02.080 Oh, I know what gives me dopamine.

00:06:04.840 I'll go get some sex, some exercise, eat right.

00:06:08.460 Maybe I need to take a nap.

00:06:09.740 But the moment you realize there's nothing wrong with the world, it's just a dopamine shortage, boom, solution.

00:06:19.680 Watch how that changes your life.

00:06:22.100 It sounds like a small thing, I know.

00:06:24.620 But for maybe 10% of you, your entire world just changed.

00:06:31.620 You're welcome.

00:06:33.460 All right.

00:06:33.800 I like to go back to this following topic a lot, but I saw Jocko Willink said a quote in a podcast.

00:06:43.860 I look at alcohol now.

00:06:45.060 I've seen it destroy so many people that I kind of look at it and go, man, I don't think people should drink.

00:06:51.720 He's almost there.

00:06:52.660 The number of, let's say, influencers who are saying directly alcohol is bad is really increasing.

00:07:04.100 If you haven't noticed, the number of people who other people listen to who are in the self-improvement or even just in the news that say they don't drink at all, and it's not because they were alcoholics.

00:07:19.300 They just kind of woke up one day and said, what the hell am I doing?

00:07:22.760 So I think that the reframe alcohol is poison, which I like to put out there.

00:07:33.620 It's sort of based on the alcohol is sugar theme.

00:07:37.680 I'm sorry, that sugar is poison.

00:07:40.280 So that came before alcohol is poison.

00:07:42.140 But they both work as a reframe because once you think of it as poison instead of a beverage, it's pretty easy to avoid it.

00:07:50.260 It's hard to avoid a beverage.

00:07:52.760 If you're at a party and, you know, it'll make you feel more social and everything, here's a beverage.

00:07:58.800 Oh, everybody's drinking a beverage.

00:08:00.800 I'll have a beverage.

00:08:02.220 Nope.

00:08:03.120 It's poison.

00:08:04.480 If somebody hands you a drink of poison, you don't say, well, everybody else is drinking it, unless you're in Jonestown.

00:08:10.940 All right.

00:08:12.660 I've got another reframe for you.

00:08:15.360 This one will really help you.

00:08:18.080 You're all aware of the reframe that says, follow the money.

00:08:21.400 And the idea is, if you're trying to figure out what's really going on in the world or people you know or politics, if you just see who's making money from whatever it is that's being proposed, you usually know exactly what's going to happen.

00:08:36.420 So follow the money tends to be predictive.

00:08:38.540 If the powerful people can make money off a thing, the thing is likely to happen.

00:08:45.320 But here's a reframe.

00:08:48.700 Money, if you have enough to pay your essentials, let's say you have enough to eat and survive, money after that is basically a mating strategy. 1.00

00:08:58.360 We don't always think of it that way, but it is entirely true that the more money you have, the more of a good mate you look like.

00:09:09.160 We evolved that way.

00:09:10.580 Now, it's mostly women seeing men with money, but it could work the other way, I suppose.

00:09:16.200 So here's the reframe.

00:09:18.720 Follow the money is just another way to say follow the mating instinct. 0.98

00:09:24.040 Because the money is really collected to improve your mating odds.

00:09:30.160 We don't always think of it that way, but I always did.

00:09:34.260 By the time I was probably five, I don't know, at least eight years old, I said to myself, wait a minute.

00:09:41.900 I look in the mirror and I see what I'm working with.

00:09:45.880 Huh.

00:09:46.940 I look at my face.

00:09:48.740 I look at my body, my height, my probable hairline when I get older.

00:09:54.000 My father was bald.

00:09:55.520 My grandfather was bald.

00:09:57.560 You know, it's more on the woman's side, but my grandfather's bald.

00:10:00.380 My uncle was bald on that side.

00:10:02.240 So I knew I was going to be short and bald.

00:10:04.620 And by fourth grade, I knew I was going to wear glasses.

00:10:09.480 And so I said to myself, my God, I don't have a chance of mating.

00:10:15.380 I'm going to have to get really rich.

00:10:16.920 Now, you might say to yourself, Scott, you didn't actually have that conversation with

00:10:23.780 yourself when you were eight years old.

00:10:26.220 I'm going to look you in the eye, and I will promise you I had that conversation with myself

00:10:31.280 when I was eight years old.

00:10:32.300 I definitely looked in the mirror, and I said, I better get rich, because I don't have a fucking

00:10:38.620 chance.

00:10:40.340 That's a true story.

00:10:42.000 Now, I don't know that everybody has that same feeling.

00:10:46.320 Yeah, I still haven't made it.

00:10:47.560 But at the subconscious level, I think you do.

00:10:54.080 So let me give you a little mental experiment to see what I mean.

00:11:01.600 Imagine, if you would, that all of our migrants who are forming this migrant crisis, the millions 1.00

00:11:06.980 of migrants who come across the border.

00:11:09.640 Suppose I told you that 95% of them were single women. 0.98

00:11:14.100 And that they were all of reproductive age.

00:11:19.300 And sure, I do know that some are terrorists.

00:11:22.840 You know, the vast majority of them are just good people.

00:11:25.440 But some percentage, way too many, are terrorists.

00:11:30.380 Now, you say to me, Scott, would you flow the illegal migration?

00:11:36.640 And I'd say, wait, explain to me again who's coming in?

00:11:39.420 Well, 95% youngish women who, you know, from their country, there's no obesity, they seem

00:11:47.440 pretty healthy.

00:11:48.440 And they just want to come in here and mate. 1.00

00:11:51.760 But honestly, 5% of them are just maybe terrorists and criminals.

00:11:55.940 So that's bad.

00:11:58.260 Do you know what I would say?

00:11:59.960 10 million.

00:12:01.360 Hmm.

00:12:02.420 That feels okay.

00:12:03.940 It's only 10 million?

00:12:05.060 And they're all young, reproductive age women? 1.00

00:12:09.580 Huh.

00:12:10.460 That feels pretty good to me.

00:12:12.140 But 5% are actually terrorists, Scott.

00:12:14.400 Are you ignoring the 5% are terrorists? 0.99

00:12:16.600 I go, huh.

00:12:17.540 No, I'm incorporating that in my decision.

00:12:20.740 Yeah.

00:12:21.540 Now, am I kidding?

00:12:24.080 Not really.

00:12:26.120 Not really.

00:12:27.320 Because I'm just being honest.

00:12:28.800 A lot of these decisions are reproductive strategy decisions that we just don't realize

00:12:34.700 that's what they are.

00:12:36.120 Do you think it's a coincidence that the Democrat Party is 68% single women or whatever it is?

00:12:41.780 It's not that.

00:12:44.120 But most of the single women are Democrats.

00:12:47.020 Do you think it's a coincidence that the Democrats, who are largely female and single,

00:12:56.480 want a whole bunch of single, reproductive age men to enter the country? 1.00

00:13:02.220 I don't think so.

00:13:03.800 And I don't think they think of it that way.

00:13:05.880 I don't think anybody's saying, hmm, more people to mate with.

00:13:09.460 Maybe some.

00:13:10.820 But no, I think follow the mating tells you what.

00:13:14.260 Now, let's do an experiment.

00:13:15.500 Let's look at Democrat versus Republican and see if follow the mating predicts everything

00:13:22.820 you see.

00:13:23.960 Let's take abortion. 1.00

00:13:25.300 Big difference between Democrats and Republicans.

00:13:28.500 I say that abortion is a female mating strategy. 1.00

00:13:34.840 Do I need to explain that or is that obvious to everybody?

00:13:38.060 That abortion is a female mating strategy. 0.98

00:13:41.640 Now, you say to yourself, no, Scott, that's the opposite.

00:13:44.140 That's totally the opposite.

00:13:45.860 Because they're not having a baby.

00:13:48.000 That's the opposite of a strategy.

00:13:49.460 Nope.

00:13:50.200 No.

00:13:50.600 Women are not in the business of having maximum babies. 1.00

00:13:54.060 They're not in that business.

00:13:55.980 Their mating strategy is to have the best babies. 0.82

00:13:58.980 The best babies that they can take care of. 0.58

00:14:01.760 So the best babies are not the ones that they are aborting.

00:14:04.700 They're not saying, oh, I've got a guy who's going to stay with me.

00:14:08.300 He's got lots of money.

00:14:09.440 He's attractive.

00:14:11.080 He's got everything going for him.

00:14:12.980 So I'm not going to have his baby.

00:14:15.880 No, it's usually because the guy wasn't going to support him.

00:14:18.800 They weren't interested in being with that guy.

00:14:21.400 It's a filtering process.

00:14:23.420 So aborting the baby is aborting the father, in effect.

00:14:27.000 You're basically rejecting the father of the baby.

00:14:29.480 Now, some of it is economic, of course.

00:14:33.160 But even the economic is related to the mating.

00:14:36.340 So give me any other topic that's different between men and women.

00:14:45.020 Let's take Ukraine, Ukraine.

00:14:49.220 Democrats seem to be more in favor of it than at least Republican voters, not Republican politicians.

00:14:57.460 But, oh, take gun control, gun control. 1.00

00:15:02.400 So women want fewer guns, but how is that connected to mating? 1.00

00:15:05.780 Well, yeah, that one's a little different, because you'd expect that they'd want to be around men who could protect them, and they might be more likely to have guns.

00:15:23.700 Yeah, does that make sense?

00:15:25.300 Yeah, I guess that would be a mating strategy, to prefer to be around people who could protect you.

00:15:29.780 That's kind of obvious.

00:15:31.920 But women don't like guns. 1.00

00:15:35.780 Or at least Democrat women. 1.00

00:15:38.380 So I'm not sure that guns are, guns are probably just not understanding the situation.

00:15:43.820 I think guns are a special case, because guns, we treat it like it's, guns are good or bad.

00:15:50.580 But the reality is that guns are, definitely make some people safer, and they definitely make other people less safe.

00:15:58.400 So imagining that we can agree on some average is ridiculous, because the people who need them need them,

00:16:03.940 and the people who are less safe don't want them.

00:16:06.460 That's never going to change.

00:16:07.900 It shouldn't change.

00:16:09.240 People should vote their self-interest. 0.88

00:16:13.240 Your wife loves when you're packing.

00:16:16.440 Anyway, follow the mating. 0.78

00:16:18.080 All right, I believe it is inevitable, here's a prediction, that our future humanoid robots, maybe AI in general, is going to have to come in two different flavors.

00:16:31.220 You're going to have a Republican robot and a Democrat robot.

00:16:38.780 Does anybody disagree?

00:16:40.300 Probably also male and female, that's true.

00:16:42.400 But I think they're going to be, they're going to have to be Republican and Democrat, because if I let one of these in my house, I don't want it to be like a blue-haired crazy, you know, I don't want my robot to be the very people I try to avoid in real life.

00:17:02.860 Yeah.

00:17:03.600 And so, and, you know, likewise, if you're a Democrat, you don't want any damn Republican robot in your house.

00:17:09.960 So, since we're going to, we're going to really, really want our robots to agree with us in, let's say, the big things, you know, the really big stuff, you know, not everything, but you want your robot to be basically on your same side for the big life things.

00:17:28.400 So, there will, in fact, have to be an option for your robot to, maybe, maybe flip a switch would be smarter, but a switch to make it Republican or Democrat.

00:17:40.200 So, that's my prediction, that you'll have to do that, because people will just demand it, or they'll hack it themselves to make it that way.

00:17:50.900 So, as I mentioned yesterday, I was trending like crazy.

00:17:56.480 So, I was trending between Hillary Clinton and E. Jean Carroll.

00:18:01.020 So, that wasn't the best look, but I was trending.

00:18:05.680 You know what's funny about that?

00:18:06.800 I don't know why I was trending.

00:18:10.640 I trended all day on the X platform.

00:18:13.780 In other words, somebody thought I was the big story or one of the big stories.

00:18:18.840 I don't know why.

00:18:20.840 Did anybody else figure it out?

00:18:22.580 I have a hypothesis.

00:18:24.720 Because I told you that the paid trolls got instructions to come after me.

00:18:30.260 And, by the way, this is not a conspiracy theory, weird thing I'm coming up with.

00:18:34.900 We found out after the 2016 election that there were, in fact, literally paid trolls.

00:18:43.100 And that they would come after Republicans, and they would get their marching orders, go after this one or go after that one.

00:18:49.660 And it looks like the order came to go after me.

00:18:54.020 So, I think I actually was trending because of the paid trolls.

00:18:59.760 I think.

00:19:00.700 Because they tended to mention my name when they did things.

00:19:04.000 And the way you can tell that they're paid is they have a very common quality to them.

00:19:11.000 They're weird little accounts.

00:19:12.720 They don't have a lot of followers.

00:19:14.760 Often, they've been around for a while because the trolls have been using the same accounts for years.

00:19:20.220 But they only emerge when it's election year.

00:19:24.680 There's a group of people who only emerge when it's election year.

00:19:27.440 By the way, I believe that there's a group of female Republicans who are also paid to interact on social media. 0.98

00:19:38.880 There are a number of females that only get really active as Republicans when there's an election. 1.00

00:19:45.300 And I think to myself, huh, they only really care in an election year.

00:19:49.640 They get really, really active.

00:19:51.520 I don't think those are organic.

00:19:53.080 I think those are working for somebody.

00:19:55.280 But I had somebody.

00:19:58.300 So, the thing that the paid trolls do is they're trying to suck my soul out of me, as Tucker Carlson notes.

00:20:05.380 They're not trying to change any of his mind.

00:20:07.140 So, they don't give any arguments.

00:20:09.000 They never talk about the content of the post when they come after you.

00:20:14.520 In my case, it looks like they literally had a psychologist give them ideas of what would hurt me the most.

00:20:22.800 It looks obvious that that's what's happening.

00:20:25.280 So, what they do is they come after me for having been recently divorced.

00:20:30.560 Like, that has anything to do with what I'm posting on X.

00:20:34.300 And they have the same little saying, which is their tell.

00:20:37.880 That's how you know it's artificial.

00:20:39.300 Is they say that I'm proving I'm the most divorced man in America.

00:20:46.060 Now, that is such a specific thing to say.

00:20:49.180 And it has nothing to do with anything I'm ever talking about.

00:20:52.160 That you can tell it's just organized.

00:20:54.480 So, today it disappeared.

00:20:56.400 So, I was actually just buried with the same-looking trolls yesterday.

00:21:02.260 And now they're just all gone.

00:21:04.720 Yeah, none of it's real.

00:21:07.000 Everything you think about that is exactly what it is.

00:21:09.840 It's people like me who are getting targeted by Democrat operatives during an election year.

00:21:16.520 And they're just trying to make me spend less time online.

00:21:19.780 Because apparently they decided I'm influencing people.

00:21:22.900 Otherwise, they wouldn't care.

00:21:24.900 Now, it would bother me, I suppose, if I didn't know it's artificial.

00:21:28.720 But when it's artificial and you can see the gears of the machine, it's so different than 2016.

00:21:34.660 In 2016, we were guessing.

00:21:37.760 In 2016, I was guessing.

00:21:39.660 Huh, I wonder if YouTube is suppressing me.

00:21:42.800 Well, I don't have to guess anymore.

00:21:44.980 I don't have to wonder if these are paid trolls.

00:21:48.460 Right?

00:21:48.740 I don't have to wonder.

00:21:50.860 All right.

00:21:54.380 Here's something that Balaji Srinivasan said.

00:21:57.540 If you're not following Balaji, you should. 0.92

00:22:00.020 He starts out by saying that 68% of unmarried women are Democrats.

00:22:10.500 And he says that the Democrats define themselves by their victimization rather than their aspirations.

00:22:18.440 That Republicans have aspirations and Democrats have complaints about their victimhood.

00:22:26.000 So it is sort of the victim party.

00:22:27.520 I feel like we should start calling them the victim party. 0.98

00:22:33.820 Because everything they do would agree with that label.

00:22:36.740 But nobody wants to be the victim party.

00:22:39.860 So the victim party.

00:22:42.540 And I think what's the real problem with the Democrats is that men are not good at saying no to single women.

00:22:51.180 Yeah.

00:22:52.000 You can't say no to single women because you get all Karen. 1.00

00:22:55.500 Here's what Candace Owens said on a podcast.

00:23:00.700 She said recently, I would be terrified if I got onto a plane and I saw a woman flying the plane. 0.98

00:23:06.240 Now, you're going to say to yourself, hey, that's a sexist thing to say, isn't it?

00:23:14.240 No, it isn't.

00:23:16.340 It's not.

00:23:17.860 That is not a sexist thing to say.

00:23:20.120 It's a math thing to say.

00:23:23.240 It doesn't say that women are worse pilots than men.

00:23:26.540 She's not saying that.

00:23:27.780 If that's what you see, you're not playing fair.

00:23:31.220 She's very clearly saying as part of the DEI that the head of United said he was trying hard to get diversity.

00:23:39.380 And if you try too hard to get diversity, you're going to be lowering your standards if it's the only way you can get there.

00:23:46.940 So what you worry about as a flyer is how much did they lower their standards, if at all, if at all, to get to their quotas.

00:23:57.820 Now, it's terribly unfair to be bigoted against, you know, a woman or a person of color if they're a pilot.

00:24:08.020 Would you agree that that is bigoted if you don't know anything about them personally, but you say, oh, there's a black pilot or a woman pilot.

00:24:16.200 It must be a DEI thing.

00:24:17.800 It's very bigoted, wouldn't you say?

00:24:19.680 Of course it is.

00:24:21.140 Yeah.

00:24:21.760 It's discrimination.

00:24:23.720 It's bigotry.

00:24:24.320 However, it is completely moral and ethical to do so.

00:24:30.080 Because that form of bigotry in this specific case is for self-defense.

00:24:35.860 So Candace is saying specifically, I'd be afraid of dying.

00:24:40.640 Now, if you're protecting yourself physically or your family in self-defense, bigotry is not only allowed, it's recommended.

00:24:49.520 It's not just allowed, it's recommended.

00:24:52.240 Because bigotry often will get you a better answer than, you know, wokeness when it comes to your physical safety.

00:25:00.860 So bigotry, to remind you, is in other domains.

00:25:06.160 When you get outside of self-defense, you know, and staying alive, if you're looking at, you know, business or personal life or all that,

00:25:12.200 then the bigotry is immoral and often illegal and it's not good for the world.

00:25:17.960 So that should be disavowed entirely, as Trump likes to say.

00:25:23.340 But, back in Candace, if she has a feeling that DEI has influenced the quality of her pilots,

00:25:32.080 then bigotry is not only allowed, it's completely moral, ethical, legal.

00:25:41.520 And, yes, she can say it right in public that she's using this standard.

00:25:46.180 And, again, the bigotry is not based on being a man or being black or any of that.

00:25:52.200 It's based on the assumption that the DEI process would drive them to lower-quality candidates,

00:25:58.260 not that those people are lower-quality in general.

00:26:03.120 All right.

00:26:04.880 Vermont proved that nobody in Vermont can do math or understand economics.

00:26:10.580 So they're looking at legislation that would tax wealth.

00:26:16.040 Everything over $10 million you'd be taxed on if it went up in value, even if you didn't realize the value.

00:26:24.320 That's right.

00:26:25.480 Listen to this.

00:26:26.800 If you had assets over $10 million, let's say you were worth $20 million,

00:26:32.220 the $10 million that's over the $10 million,

00:26:34.940 if that $10 million's in stocks and the value of your stocks go up 20%,

00:26:39.860 you have to pay taxes on the gain.

00:26:44.560 Now, if next year those same stocks go down 20%, you get your money back.

00:26:49.780 No, I'm just kidding.

00:26:51.300 I'm just kidding.

00:26:52.040 You don't get your money back.

00:26:54.000 No.

00:26:55.060 No.

00:26:55.540 They just keep your money.

00:26:57.620 Yeah, no.

00:26:58.560 It's stupid.

00:27:00.280 There are some bills and plans that you could say,

00:27:04.020 huh, they have different priorities.

00:27:07.440 No, that's not what's going on here.

00:27:08.960 No, this is just stupid.

00:27:12.400 What rich person is going to stay in Vermont?

00:27:17.280 Vermont is not exactly the place you just have to live in.

00:27:21.220 It's sort of an optional place to live.

00:27:23.780 The people who are paying most of the taxes are the rich, the high-income people.

00:27:29.780 The rich are going to move out of there as fast as they can.

00:27:32.180 There's no way I would live in Vermont.

00:27:33.600 Vermont is completely off the list of places to move to.

00:27:38.460 I'd never open a business there, because what if my business becomes worth more than $10 million?

00:27:45.060 It would be the wrong state to have a business.

00:27:46.920 And if you don't think your business could be worth more than $10 million, well, it's a small business.

00:27:56.300 So I would say that 80% of their taxpayer base would leave under those conditions if they could go to a state that doesn't have that.

00:28:03.760 All right, in simulation news, has anybody noticed that the rate of coincidence seems to be increasing?

00:28:13.320 Has anybody noticed that?

00:28:14.700 It's just more coincidences.

00:28:16.520 I don't know if it's real.

00:28:18.200 It just feels like there's more coincidence.

00:28:20.460 But here's a weird one.

00:28:21.340 So yesterday afternoon, I spent a bunch of time researching Toyota Tacoma trucks, specifically the Tacoma.

00:28:31.140 Now, I'm just trying to figure out some kind of vehicle, my next vehicle.

00:28:35.680 By the way, what do you think?

00:28:38.860 Does a Toyota Tacoma make sense for me and my age and who I am?

00:28:45.340 Does that make sense for me?

00:28:47.260 I feel like it fits.

00:28:48.440 Like I'm ready for an old man truck.

00:28:51.340 I always wanted a grandpa truck, you know, when I reached a certain age.

00:28:56.740 So it's, you know, I just feel like a truck is exactly what I'm supposed to be in.

00:29:01.840 But I want to be able to park it.

00:29:04.260 You know, I don't want the wide truck.

00:29:06.340 The wide truck's a pain in the ass because you can't park it as easily in as many places.

00:29:11.440 Anyway, but that has nothing to do with anything.

00:29:13.820 So I spend the afternoon looking at Tacoma trucks.

00:29:16.040 And then when I'm done, I say, I think I'm going to watch, see if anything's on Netflix.

00:29:19.580 And I turn on Netflix and the home page, the one that comes up when you first open it, was for a new series called Tacoma about some firefighters.

00:29:31.280 Now, that was pretty weird, but just a coincidence.

00:29:36.300 However, I recommend the show.

00:29:37.580 It's actually a really, really funny show.

00:29:39.220 So here's another one.

00:29:43.520 The leader, the new leader of Poland, his name is Donald Tusk.

00:29:49.580 Donald Tusk.

00:29:52.140 All day long, we talk about Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

00:29:55.840 And then the head of Poland is Donald Tusk.

00:30:01.380 It's just, there's just something weird about that.

00:30:07.200 All right.

00:30:07.820 Well, that's enough of that.

00:30:09.140 Florida is considering a ban on social media for people under 16.

00:30:14.280 So it hasn't passed.

00:30:15.980 Yeah, I guess it went through the House of Representatives in Florida, but still has not been heard in the state Senate.

00:30:21.020 I don't think it'll get passed, but maybe it will, because Florida is such an outlier in terms of doing Republican stuff.

00:30:31.740 So maybe they will.

00:30:33.360 But what would you think if you were a parent and your child was using something every day that the state of Florida,

00:30:41.000 Florida, having seriously looked into it and being concerned about the health of children,

00:30:46.620 said it's so dangerous that it should be illegal.

00:30:50.240 And your kid's using it.

00:30:53.520 That would be like, you know, all the states say cocaine is illegal for children, but your kid's using cocaine.

00:30:59.520 You're like, ah, this should work out.

00:31:02.320 I don't know.

00:31:03.180 Yeah, I don't know if it'll make any difference or if it's going anywhere.

00:31:05.900 I think TikTok probably has enough money to kill this.

00:31:09.220 We'll see.

00:31:11.000 If you didn't hear the reason that Tim Poole pulled one or two shows, there might have been two of them,

00:31:17.340 he had guests on that were making references to killing people, and that's not cool on podcasts.

00:31:26.220 So I kind of agree with Tim Poole.

00:31:29.260 He basically cost himself a lot of money.

00:31:33.440 I would guess that Tim Poole probably makes a few thousand dollars per video.

00:31:38.800 So for him to pull his video, first of all, it's smart because he could lose his whole channel.

00:31:44.880 But it's responsible.

00:31:47.880 That's good responsible behavior.

00:31:50.940 So, yeah, and then it got attention indirectly.

00:31:54.680 So good work for Tim Poole just being a responsible citizen and managing his business model correctly.

00:32:02.020 I think he nailed it.

00:32:03.740 And you could disagree whether, you know, whether he went too far, but it's not your call.

00:32:09.960 The only decision is just his call.

00:32:12.500 And to me, it looks like he made the right call.

00:32:14.340 And it made a point.

00:32:17.720 It also made a point for his future guests.

00:32:20.300 So all good.

00:32:20.920 I think he comes out ahead.

00:32:23.160 Well, apparently, Christopher Wray is being accused of hollowing out the FBI with a bunch of DEI hires.

00:32:31.320 So a bunch of, let's see, there's a report by an alliance of retired and active duty agents who say basically the new recruits are lower quality because the requirements for being in the FBI were lowered so that they can improve their diversity through DEI.

00:32:52.320 So there's the, these critics who are current and past FBI people say that Christopher Wray has degraded the recruitment standards in all areas, including physical fitness, illicit drug use, financial irregularities, mental health, full-time work experience, and integrity.

00:33:12.760 So that basically the FBI is just a woke nightmare at this point.

00:33:17.620 So, if you hear that FBI is being hollowed out by DEI, do you think that Vivek is right?

00:33:24.620 You could get rid of 75% of them without hurting your effectiveness?

00:33:28.520 I do.

00:33:30.160 Yeah.

00:33:30.580 I actually believe, you know, once I hear about the DEI stuff, I go, oh, yeah.

00:33:36.800 Anybody who's doing massive DEI, you could fire 75% of them.

00:33:42.260 I think that was the story with Twitter.

00:33:43.920 If you find that much wokeness, you can fire 75% of them. 1.00

00:33:50.900 There should be a rule about that.

00:33:53.380 If you have a DEI group, you can fire 75% of everybody, and you could break even in terms of productivity.

00:34:01.320 It would be about the same.

00:34:02.480 Just be cheaper.

00:34:05.380 Well, the FBI is probably going to find that out.

00:34:07.520 In Hunter Biden news, I guess Hunter Biden's associate, Rob Walker, has now testified under oath that Hunter Biden's work for the Chinese energy company, CFC, began while Joe Biden was still vice president in 2015.

00:34:26.620 So, let's add that to the list of everything you suspected was true, was exactly like it looked like.

00:34:36.240 Hunter Biden was taking money from a Chinese energy company while his father was vice president of the United States.

00:34:46.440 Yeah.

00:34:47.160 And his name is Rob.

00:34:48.500 His partner's name is Rob.

00:34:52.360 That is funny.

00:34:55.760 So, that's exactly what it looks like.

00:34:58.940 Here's another exactly what it looks like.

00:35:01.620 What were the odds that in an election year where Biden needs to get reelected, who could have predicted that yesterday there would be a post by Paul Krugman, famous Democrat-leading economist,

00:35:17.220 who would say this?

00:35:19.900 So, 2023 was a miraculous year for the economy.

00:35:23.420 High growth with inflation falling all the way back to the Fed's target.

00:35:27.080 Rising real wages.

00:35:28.700 And here, according to YouGov, is how the Republicans saw it.

00:35:32.240 Then he says the Republicans see it as bad news.

00:35:36.220 Kyle Bass weighed into that and said the great illusion of the self-congratulatory academics is how they chain-weight inflation.

00:35:43.320 In other words, they're calculating it a stupid way.

00:35:46.220 The real number is over 40% in the last three years combined.

00:35:51.420 So, if you took all the inflation that's cumulatively piled up, that's what you need to look at, not what happened more recently.

00:35:59.640 So, there are a few things to learn here.

00:36:05.660 Number one, all economic numbers are made up.

00:36:09.480 Add that to all war-related data is made up.

00:36:15.060 And all economy-related data is made up.

00:36:18.280 Especially in an election year.

00:36:19.580 You could guarantee, in fact, I literally had a conversation with my stepdaughter.

00:36:26.360 I said, election year coming.

00:36:29.580 The government always juices the numbers.

00:36:32.300 So, it looks better than it is if they want the incumbent to get reelected.

00:36:36.220 And, sure enough, right on time.

00:36:40.920 Exactly when you predicted the top Democrat name in economics says,

00:36:47.960 my God, it was a miraculous year that Joe Biden really nailed it.

00:36:51.980 And would you expect other people to disagree with his assessment?

00:36:55.720 Of course.

00:36:56.320 Because all of our data is fake.

00:36:59.440 And all of our pundits are lying.

00:37:03.040 Okay, maybe not all of them.

00:37:05.100 Most of them.

00:37:07.360 How about another one for what you suspected was exactly true?

00:37:13.420 And we'll add this to the Trump was right pile.

00:37:18.420 Joel Pollack was pointing this out in the Trump was right.

00:37:21.080 So, there's a U.N. group called UNRWA, U-N-R-W-A, that stands for U.N. Relief and Works Agency.

00:37:30.460 But, basically, it's specifically to help refugees from the Palestine areas, as they would call it.

00:37:39.480 And Trump, thinking this was a sketchy organization, pulled funding from them.

00:37:45.940 Joe Biden said, oh, Trump pulled their funding, I'm going to give it right back, and gave them back their funding.

00:37:54.600 So, how did that work out once they got funded?

00:37:56.860 Let's see, checking, checking an update for UNRWA funding.

00:38:01.080 Oh, okay, here's an update.

00:38:02.760 The State Department has temporarily paused additional funding for allegations that 12 of the agency's employees were involved in the Hamas attack on October 7th.

00:38:12.940 Wait, what?

00:38:18.320 Has Trump ever been more right than that?

00:38:21.400 I mean, he was right on the border.

00:38:23.880 He was right on a lot of stuff.

00:38:25.460 But I don't think he's ever been more right than this.

00:38:28.840 So, Biden gave funding back to the people who helped plan October 7th.

00:38:33.840 And now, Biden is saying, yeah, maybe we should reduce that funding a little bit.

00:38:40.840 Maybe a little bit less funding for the terrorist planners.

00:38:44.980 Yeah.

00:38:46.420 So, I finally figured out why Trump is considered on the right, and the Democrats are considered on the left.

00:38:56.780 I hadn't figured it out.

00:38:57.920 But it's because Trump is always right, and if you take all the opinions that people have, and you remove from them the ones that are right, you know, the Trump opinions, the ones that are right, then the opinions that are wrong would be what?

00:39:17.700 They would be what's left.

00:39:18.720 So, if you take all, if you remove from the subset of all opinions the ones that are right, then the ones that you haven't removed are the ones that are left.

00:39:31.900 So, that's why it's called right and left, because some are right, and the others are what's left.

00:39:38.560 All right.

00:39:42.880 Oh, here's a big surprise.

00:39:44.660 You might be surprised to know that there's a CIA whistleblower who alleges that the CIA offered to pay off independent analysts to change their positions on whether the COVID-19 lab leak theory was valid.

00:40:01.540 So, we don't have confirmation of that.

00:40:04.000 It's just a whistleblower.

00:40:04.940 But a whistleblower, according to Rand Paul, who's taking us seriously, and he's a serious person who's a credit to the country, even when I don't agree with him, he's still a credit to the country, Rand Paul, because he's consistent.

00:40:20.860 He's not a damn hypocrite, and he's actually trying to help the country in everything he does.

00:40:26.260 It's just obvious he's just trying to make things work.

00:40:29.900 So, I love me some Rand Paul.

00:40:33.000 But, yeah, it's a good thing he's looking into this.

00:40:39.660 So, Rand Paul, he might have been right about everything in the pandemic and Fauci, because he's on the right, and when you remove those opinions, well, that's what's left.

00:40:53.100 All right.

00:40:53.360 Let's talk about the Eugene Carroll corruption of justice.

00:40:58.880 So, there's a result in the lawsuit where Eugene Carroll was suing Trump for defamation, because Trump called her a liar and whatnot.

00:41:08.740 So, the court has decided that Trump should pay her $83.3 million.

00:41:18.540 So, does that feel like justice has been served, or does it feel like the courts are completely broken in some jurisdictions, and that as soon as Trump's name comes up, there isn't a chance he gets a good trial?

00:41:35.760 Now, I don't think he's going to ever pay this money.

00:41:40.840 Seems like there's something you could do to make this go away, some legal process.

00:41:45.900 But, John Lefebvre does a good job of summarizing what you didn't know about this trial.

00:41:52.200 All right.

00:41:52.440 Now, I knew a few of these things, but when you see them all on the list, oh, my God.

00:41:58.060 So, let me read what John Lefebvre summarizes.

00:42:03.980 He says, I thought everyone knew the Eugene Carroll v. Trump case was bogus until I heard my mother's late 60s Republican uninformed take on the verdict after watching ABC Nightly News.

00:42:16.300 Oh, big surprise.

00:42:18.120 Somebody watched ABC Nightly News and was misinformed on a news story.

00:42:23.000 Wow, didn't see that coming.

00:42:24.120 All right.

00:42:25.460 So, here's the better take on it.

00:42:29.540 He says, it's hard to find on Google, so here's what you need to know about the case, most of which was deemed inadmissible by the judge.

00:42:39.720 Number one, she couldn't recall the date, month, season, or year the incident happened.

00:42:45.000 The incident where she alleges that Trump pushed her into a restroom or a changing room, I guess, a changing area and sexually touched her.

00:42:58.480 So, she didn't even know the season or the year.

00:43:01.460 She never told anyone about it.

00:43:04.000 So, at the time that it allegedly happened, there was no, that's the part I thought actually did happen.

00:43:10.480 So, give me a fact check.

00:43:14.940 Do I just have a false memory?

00:43:17.340 Because I thought in a case like this, unless they had told somebody that they knew at the time it happened, I thought that these cases never go anywhere.

00:43:27.220 Like, if you don't have a witness that you were talking about it when it happened, that's almost a guarantee that nobody can do anything with it from a legal perspective.

00:43:37.940 Because that is just what you said happened 100 years ago, and that's not enough.

00:43:42.800 But according to Lefebvre, she never told anybody about it, so the court case didn't present that.

00:43:52.060 Yeah, she also tweeted that her favorite show was the, well, we'll get that, was The Apprentice.

00:43:59.220 That's actually on the list.

00:44:01.900 The dress she claims to have been wearing didn't exist at the time.

00:44:07.280 The dress she claimed to be wearing didn't exist.

00:44:11.900 Her description of the dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman was inaccurate, making her sequence of events impossible.

00:44:19.200 Her lawsuit was bankrolled by Jeffrey Epstein, pal and Democrat, and Nikki Haley, mega-donor, Reid Hoffman.

00:44:31.160 Democrats created a law, the Adult Survivors Act in 2022, to enable her lawsuit to proceed, because the statute of limitations had run out.

00:44:41.120 And coincidentally, New York created a law that had the effect of making this specific case pursuable.

00:44:50.740 Now, do you think they made that law just because of Trump?

00:44:54.200 Well, they would say no.

00:44:57.200 But probably.

00:45:01.180 Her accusation is the exact plot line of an episode of Law & Order, one of her favorite shows.

00:45:07.420 Now, if anybody has a link to that, that you could send me somewhere, I'd love to watch the show.

00:45:14.340 I don't know.

00:45:15.640 I'd have to see it myself to say that the plot line is exact.

00:45:20.260 Maybe it just reminds you of it, which wouldn't be good enough.

00:45:23.620 But it's certainly part of the story.

00:45:27.380 And we're not even to the good stuff yet.

00:45:30.400 Trump's Apprentice was her favorite show, one of her favorite shows.

00:45:33.540 Do you think if you get sexually abused, the Abusers TV show is one of your favorite shows?

00:45:39.940 It's basically impossible.

00:45:42.740 That's my understanding of human beings.

00:45:45.700 My understanding of human beings is that would be literally impossible.

00:45:52.020 But who knows?

00:45:54.360 She has a history of falsely accusing men of rape, including Les Moonves.

00:46:01.660 Well, I don't think we can know that anything is a false accusation.

00:46:06.460 We can know that she didn't prove it.

00:46:09.680 And I think Les Moonves has been accused of quite a few things.

00:46:14.180 I don't know if he's ever been proven.

00:46:16.380 But have I ever told you that 100% of public figures get accused of things just like this?

00:46:22.340 I've been accused of, like, massive rape by a person I never met.

00:46:29.620 Somebody who lives in Canada.

00:46:32.380 Yeah, I definitely have never met them.

00:46:34.980 Yeah, there's somebody who calls up the people I work with every few years

00:46:38.760 to tell them that I go to Canada to rape her on a regular basis.

00:46:43.380 That's a real thing.

00:46:44.800 And by the way, not the only one.

00:46:47.580 Do you think it's the only one?

00:46:49.060 No.

00:46:49.280 Oh, by the way, while I'm here, let me say something.

00:46:54.380 There is an imposter, somebody pretending to be me, 0.96

00:46:58.300 who is apparently getting a number of single, lonely women 0.90

00:47:01.880 to believe that I am in a relationship with them.

00:47:05.480 And a few of them have showed up at my house.

00:47:08.300 Right?

00:47:08.920 A few of them have showed up at my house

00:47:10.720 because they believe they've been in a long-term digital relationship with me

00:47:15.240 and that I had invited them to live the rest of their lives.

00:47:18.580 So they've showed up with baggage, like actually luggage,

00:47:22.500 to actually move into my house.

00:47:23.880 And I open the door and I say,

00:47:25.740 Hello?

00:47:27.840 And they say,

00:47:29.020 I'm here.

00:47:30.780 Do you know who I am?

00:47:32.340 And I have to say,

00:47:33.960 I'm sorry, I don't.

00:47:36.260 And then when I find out,

00:47:37.440 I have to explain to them it's not the first time.

00:47:39.780 So it's really tough to hear

00:47:42.020 that you've been in a romantic relationship for a year

00:47:45.300 that wasn't even real.

00:47:47.480 So, and then there are also some number of people

00:47:50.560 who believe I'm sending them secret signals

00:47:55.280 through the live stream

00:47:58.040 and that it's part of our relationship.

00:48:00.620 You know, I'm confirming things we talked about

00:48:03.000 and things like that.

00:48:03.940 That's not happening.

00:48:06.020 Right?

00:48:06.600 Or let me put it this way.

00:48:08.680 If you don't know my phone number,

00:48:11.520 I'm not saying secret things to you on my live stream.

00:48:15.320 But there are a few people who know me well enough

00:48:17.460 that they know my phone number.

00:48:19.100 And in some cases I do say things

00:48:21.160 that are like little Easter eggs

00:48:23.040 just for the people I know.

00:48:24.460 But no,

00:48:25.080 there's nobody who I have a secret,

00:48:27.740 you know,

00:48:28.020 going to marry them relationship

00:48:30.360 that doesn't have my phone number.

00:48:31.920 Yeah, if you don't have my phone number,

00:48:35.040 I'm not in a relationship with you.

00:48:38.380 All right.

00:48:39.220 Just put that out there as a public service

00:48:41.360 because it's a pretty big problem.

00:48:45.020 More about E. Jean Carroll,

00:48:48.260 the accuser of Trump.

00:48:51.200 She told Anderson Cooper,

00:48:53.340 most people think of rape as being sexy.

00:48:56.720 Okay.

00:48:57.360 That was a little out of context though.

00:48:58.840 And she made a career promoting promiscuity, 0.96

00:49:03.880 but I don't think that's,

00:49:05.580 and her cat's name is Vagina. 1.00

00:49:07.420 But I don't think that's,

00:49:09.600 you know,

00:49:10.140 here I think I would side with E. Jean.

00:49:13.420 Those are not the things

00:49:14.680 that you should be bringing up in court

00:49:16.300 because everybody's,

00:49:18.420 you know,

00:49:18.640 most adults are sexual creatures.

00:49:20.980 So,

00:49:21.780 you know,

00:49:22.240 I don't really care that her cat is named Vagina 1.00

00:49:24.260 except that it's hilarious.

00:49:27.280 All right.

00:49:29.800 But I hope she doesn't let the cat outdoors

00:49:31.740 because

00:49:32.280 if she lets that cat outdoors,

00:49:35.580 could be a mountain lion

00:49:36.620 that would eat her vagina. 1.00

00:49:39.800 Anyway,

00:49:40.180 Mike Benton's

00:49:40.820 thinks that we need a sanctuary state

00:49:44.000 to shield

00:49:44.580 Republicans from the lawfare.

00:49:47.900 He's not wrong. 0.53

00:49:49.620 I feel like there should be a state

00:49:51.380 you could move to

00:49:52.140 when you're falsely accused

00:49:53.380 by another state.

00:49:55.800 Like literally.

00:49:56.600 Literally,

00:49:58.980 no hyperbole,

00:50:00.900 no joke.

00:50:02.700 We might actually need a state

00:50:04.620 that would protect people

00:50:05.920 if they move there

00:50:07.320 to get away from

00:50:08.320 obviously

00:50:09.520 malignant

00:50:11.020 prosecution.

00:50:13.660 I mean,

00:50:14.000 if Florida could do it,

00:50:15.500 I don't think they could do it

00:50:16.460 and it wouldn't make sense

00:50:17.440 in his case,

00:50:18.120 but if they can say to Trump,

00:50:19.440 look,

00:50:20.020 as long as you just stay in the state,

00:50:22.060 you're fine.

00:50:23.020 You know,

00:50:24.300 we won't let them get to you.

00:50:26.120 We need a sanctuary state

00:50:27.520 for Republicans.

00:50:28.560 Like,

00:50:28.980 honest to God,

00:50:29.700 we need it.

00:50:30.480 Really,

00:50:31.000 really need it.

00:50:33.940 All right.

00:50:34.600 Or we should get rid

00:50:35.620 of all the sanctuary cities.

00:50:36.960 That would be the other way to go.

00:50:37.980 All right.

00:50:43.500 Keep in mind

00:50:44.180 that E. Jean Carroll

00:50:45.080 won her civil lawsuit

00:50:46.620 against Trump

00:50:47.480 after losing

00:50:48.740 the criminal one.

00:50:50.200 The criminal one

00:50:51.360 is where you prove

00:50:52.240 beyond a shadow of a doubt

00:50:53.420 that the event

00:50:54.180 even happened.

00:50:56.400 She was not able 0.51

00:50:57.500 to prove

00:50:58.200 to a jury

00:50:59.320 that the event

00:50:59.960 or a judge,

00:51:00.780 I don't know,

00:51:01.260 that the event happened.

00:51:02.980 Doesn't mean it didn't happen.

00:51:04.280 It just means

00:51:05.460 she was unable

00:51:06.080 to prove it happened.

00:51:07.960 So how do you prove

00:51:09.240 that Trump defamed her?

00:51:12.520 If you can't prove

00:51:13.960 that the event happened,

00:51:16.780 then Trump calling her

00:51:18.640 a liar for saying 0.59

00:51:19.660 it happened,

00:51:21.580 wouldn't you have to prove

00:51:23.220 that it did happen

00:51:25.080 in order to know

00:51:26.320 that Trump was defaming her

00:51:27.980 versus accurately describing her?

00:51:31.260 It's ridiculous.

00:51:32.280 So I can give you

00:51:34.660 ten more minutes

00:51:35.520 of why this ruling

00:51:36.840 is clearly,

00:51:38.800 you know,

00:51:39.160 nothing even close

00:51:40.300 to justice.

00:51:41.120 It's just a crazy punishment

00:51:42.460 on Trump.

00:51:44.060 Yeah, it's just crazy.

00:51:45.480 You know,

00:51:45.660 it's a Democrat judge.

00:51:49.140 It's the whole,

00:51:50.000 it's everything

00:51:50.500 you think it is.

00:51:51.880 Every wrong thing

00:51:53.100 you think,

00:51:54.020 yeah,

00:51:54.320 it's just what

00:51:55.200 you thought it was.

00:51:57.920 But it's,

00:51:58.680 all right,

00:51:59.060 here's a prediction.

00:52:02.280 my prediction is

00:52:04.740 since Reid Hoffman

00:52:06.900 was backing Nikki Haley

00:52:09.880 and that makes him

00:52:12.880 sort of a,

00:52:13.540 you know,

00:52:13.820 you could say

00:52:14.220 he's an enemy

00:52:14.860 to the Republicans.

00:52:17.740 But Republicans

00:52:18.640 do have a little bit

00:52:19.780 of honor.

00:52:21.400 You know,

00:52:21.660 not every one of them.

00:52:22.660 but I think

00:52:25.660 that as long

00:52:26.180 as somebody

00:52:26.660 is transparently

00:52:27.700 funding a candidate

00:52:29.160 in a open election

00:52:31.480 in our,

00:52:32.260 you know,

00:52:32.880 Democratic Republic,

00:52:34.500 that even if you hate it,

00:52:37.020 he is an American

00:52:37.960 and as an American

00:52:39.820 he gets to do

00:52:40.460 American things

00:52:41.300 and if they're legal,

00:52:43.440 such as funding

00:52:44.340 a candidate,

00:52:45.480 even if it's

00:52:46.160 for a sketchy reason

00:52:47.320 because he's funding

00:52:48.080 the other party,

00:52:48.960 et cetera,

00:52:49.620 it's all transparent

00:52:50.820 and therefore illegal.

00:52:53.920 You know,

00:52:54.200 well,

00:52:54.700 not therefore,

00:52:55.320 but it is also illegal.

00:52:56.780 So I don't think

00:52:57.580 that anybody's

00:52:58.100 going to try to like

00:52:58.840 target Reid Hoffman

00:53:00.480 for destruction

00:53:01.280 because he's

00:53:02.040 on the other team,

00:53:03.300 although we do

00:53:03.880 a lot of that,

00:53:04.620 too much of it.

00:53:05.340 However,

00:53:07.300 he was also

00:53:08.340 allegedly the main

00:53:09.720 funder behind

00:53:10.620 this lawsuit,

00:53:11.720 which means

00:53:12.200 paying the lawyers,

00:53:13.100 I assume.

00:53:14.400 Now,

00:53:14.880 do you consider this

00:53:16.080 a legitimate attack

00:53:17.500 on Trump?

00:53:19.460 Well,

00:53:19.960 I suppose it depends

00:53:20.820 if you think

00:53:21.500 that the act

00:53:23.940 actually happened

00:53:24.900 or,

00:53:26.560 alternately,

00:53:27.480 if you think

00:53:28.160 that it was proven

00:53:29.220 substantially enough

00:53:30.340 that,

00:53:30.900 you know,

00:53:31.160 the legal system

00:53:32.220 should act on it.

00:53:33.840 Here's what I see.

00:53:35.340 And I don't know

00:53:36.100 if anybody else

00:53:36.620 sees it.

00:53:37.040 I want to be

00:53:37.400 really careful

00:53:38.100 how I talk about it

00:53:39.220 because I don't

00:53:40.100 recommend

00:53:40.820 or even approve

00:53:43.040 of going after

00:53:44.700 an American

00:53:45.400 in any

00:53:46.640 sketchy way.

00:53:48.720 Like,

00:53:48.980 I don't think

00:53:49.360 we should be

00:53:49.940 at each other's

00:53:50.720 throats about stuff.

00:53:52.620 However,

00:53:55.120 let me put my notes

00:53:56.900 down for a moment

00:53:57.660 and speak to you

00:53:58.940 as a human adult male.

00:54:01.700 As a human adult male,

00:54:04.240 you can sense

00:54:05.300 when the line

00:54:06.360 has been crossed.

00:54:09.600 Adult males,

00:54:10.580 can you give me

00:54:11.200 a little,

00:54:12.740 can you confirm?

00:54:14.500 This E.G. and Carroll

00:54:15.700 stuff,

00:54:16.200 now that we know

00:54:16.740 how it turned out,

00:54:18.360 this crossed the line.

00:54:20.680 This is not like

00:54:21.780 funding Nikki Haley,

00:54:23.180 which is kind of

00:54:24.240 a clever,

00:54:24.940 dirty trick,

00:54:25.720 but it's transparent,

00:54:26.940 it's legal,

00:54:27.760 he's an American citizen

00:54:28.980 involved in politics.

00:54:31.160 Perfectly

00:54:31.680 legitimate,

00:54:33.000 even if you hate it.

00:54:33.880 It's legitimate.

00:54:36.020 But,

00:54:36.620 funding this lawsuit,

00:54:39.620 now that you know

00:54:40.340 the details,

00:54:41.700 does that feel like

00:54:43.060 that was part

00:54:43.660 of the normal process?

00:54:45.780 Does that feel like

00:54:46.720 he was just in the game

00:54:48.100 like everybody else

00:54:48.980 and he played

00:54:49.440 the rules of the game?

00:54:50.880 I'm going to say

00:54:51.700 that he

00:54:52.220 increased the size

00:54:54.680 of the field.

00:54:55.240 and he just

00:54:57.300 made it

00:54:57.960 completely acceptable

00:55:00.100 for the Republicans

00:55:01.300 to destroy his life.

00:55:03.860 Now,

00:55:04.340 I don't recommend it.

00:55:05.780 I actually like

00:55:06.480 Reid Hoffman.

00:55:07.280 I've met him.

00:55:08.100 He's actually,

00:55:08.600 he was very kind,

00:55:09.900 very generous to me

00:55:10.900 and I like him.

00:55:12.900 So,

00:55:13.320 I wouldn't want to see

00:55:13.940 anything bad

00:55:14.400 happen to him.

00:55:15.420 So,

00:55:15.700 on a personal level,

00:55:17.180 I don't want to think

00:55:17.820 that,

00:55:18.300 you know,

00:55:18.560 don't do anything bad

00:55:19.680 to Reid Hoffman.

00:55:21.240 However,

00:55:22.060 it's not up to me.

00:55:23.460 And if I were

00:55:24.980 observing this

00:55:25.800 from the outside

00:55:26.560 and predicting,

00:55:28.000 probably the hit

00:55:29.720 has already been ordered.

00:55:32.120 At some deep level

00:55:33.840 in the Republican Party

00:55:35.240 where the naughtiest

00:55:37.400 members live,

00:55:39.160 I'm pretty sure

00:55:40.000 the order just went out

00:55:41.240 to destroy his life.

00:55:44.060 So,

00:55:44.620 my prediction is

00:55:45.440 that Reid Hoffman

00:55:46.280 is going to be

00:55:47.020 the subject of

00:55:47.880 maybe false

00:55:49.240 accusations,

00:55:50.940 but it's going to

00:55:52.280 get really dark.

00:55:53.460 And I also think

00:55:54.840 that there is

00:55:55.700 a principle

00:55:56.320 of mutually

00:55:58.180 assured destruction

00:55:59.220 which is a necessity

00:56:01.320 for civilization

00:56:02.260 to function.

00:56:04.200 Meaning that

00:56:05.220 it doesn't matter

00:56:06.580 if the law

00:56:07.360 says you can't,

00:56:08.420 you know,

00:56:08.700 do something terrible

00:56:09.620 to my family.

00:56:10.800 If you do,

00:56:12.440 I'm going to kill you.

00:56:14.120 Right?

00:56:14.400 Mutually assured destruction

00:56:15.620 if I can find you.

00:56:17.000 So,

00:56:17.920 sometimes the law

00:56:19.000 can handle stuff.

00:56:20.720 And in this case,

00:56:21.500 the law

00:56:21.980 was completely

00:56:23.240 incapable

00:56:24.280 and made things worse,

00:56:25.380 it looks like.

00:56:26.840 But,

00:56:27.860 am I wrong?

00:56:29.780 Let me just check

00:56:30.800 my assumptions.

00:56:32.100 Doesn't it seem like

00:56:33.000 you crossed the line?

00:56:36.320 And,

00:56:36.880 again,

00:56:37.440 I don't want anybody

00:56:38.320 to get hurt.

00:56:39.520 I don't like fake rumors.

00:56:41.000 I don't like fake stories

00:56:42.000 about anybody.

00:56:43.080 I don't like any of that.

00:56:44.020 but,

00:56:45.340 you would be naive

00:56:47.040 if you don't think

00:56:47.920 the kill order

00:56:48.680 has already been given.

00:56:51.380 I mean,

00:56:51.920 there are Republicans

00:56:53.340 who work in the

00:56:54.300 dirty tricks

00:56:55.100 domain

00:56:56.420 that are already

00:56:58.080 pouring through

00:56:58.640 his garbage cans

00:56:59.480 right now.

00:57:00.520 If anybody,

00:57:02.360 female 0.86

00:57:02.760 or male,

00:57:03.920 has ever made

00:57:04.840 an accusation

00:57:05.580 against him,

00:57:06.620 you're going to find out

00:57:07.480 in the next 30 days.

00:57:09.460 It's going to get

00:57:10.420 really fucking ugly.

00:57:12.440 So,

00:57:13.660 so,

00:57:14.200 Reid,

00:57:14.520 you have opened up

00:57:15.340 a new domain

00:57:16.280 and I think

00:57:17.080 that the Republicans

00:57:17.780 have a free punch.

00:57:19.460 So,

00:57:19.960 if you're hiding anything,

00:57:20.940 they're definitely

00:57:21.400 going to find it.

00:57:22.260 And if you're not

00:57:22.880 hiding anything,

00:57:23.580 they might find that too.

00:57:25.100 So,

00:57:25.600 it doesn't mean

00:57:26.140 that they're going

00:57:26.560 to play fair.

00:57:27.460 Because keep in mind,

00:57:28.880 the accusation was

00:57:30.000 that he didn't play fair.

00:57:32.060 If you don't play fair

00:57:33.380 and that's what

00:57:33.980 your opponent thinks,

00:57:35.140 they're not going

00:57:35.600 to play fair.

00:57:36.840 So,

00:57:37.160 basically,

00:57:37.980 all controls

00:57:39.040 have been removed

00:57:40.000 from Republicans

00:57:41.320 when it comes

00:57:42.060 to this one individual.

00:57:44.780 Yeah.

00:57:46.940 So,

00:57:47.780 I hate that,

00:57:49.480 I hate that

00:57:50.100 that's going

00:57:50.780 to happen to him,

00:57:51.460 but

00:57:51.600 I also like

00:57:54.160 mutually assured destruction

00:57:55.340 because it does

00:57:55.980 keep society

00:57:56.740 humming along.

00:57:59.140 Andrew Cuomo

00:57:59.840 has been accused

00:58:00.980 of subjecting

00:58:02.700 13 women 1.00

00:58:03.420 to sexually hostile

00:58:04.540 stuff in the office.

00:58:06.840 Turley gives him,

00:58:08.920 I like how Turley

00:58:10.160 is approaching this.

00:58:11.380 So,

00:58:11.560 the question is not

00:58:12.280 whether he did

00:58:12.880 or did not do

00:58:13.580 these things

00:58:14.220 because we don't know.

00:58:15.300 We weren't there.

00:58:16.720 The question is

00:58:17.460 apparently the government

00:58:18.420 has decided

00:58:19.160 that without proof,

00:58:21.320 you know,

00:58:21.500 without a trial

00:58:22.400 that really gets

00:58:23.400 to the factual part

00:58:24.460 of it,

00:58:25.380 that they're just

00:58:26.000 going to accuse him

00:58:27.020 of being this horrible

00:58:27.980 person

00:58:28.460 and smear him 0.56

00:58:30.300 in public

00:58:30.780 and,

00:58:31.620 I don't know.

00:58:31.940 so I guess

00:58:33.320 Kristen Clark,

00:58:35.220 the assistant

00:58:35.920 attorney general

00:58:36.800 in the agency's

00:58:38.460 civil rights division

00:58:39.320 declared that

00:58:40.060 the conduct

00:58:40.780 in the executive

00:58:41.400 chamber,

00:58:42.680 blah, blah, blah,

00:58:43.280 under the former

00:58:43.800 governor,

00:58:44.740 was especially egregious

00:58:46.260 because of the

00:58:47.020 stark power differential

00:58:48.100 and the victims

00:58:49.060 and blah, blah, blah.

00:58:50.580 And

00:58:51.080 the problem here

00:58:54.980 is that he's

00:58:55.620 convicted

00:58:56.100 within a trial.

00:58:57.000 So basically

00:58:59.600 the government

00:59:00.520 has said

00:59:01.180 you did 13

00:59:02.840 horrible

00:59:03.380 sex-related things

00:59:05.020 and where's

00:59:06.600 his defense?

00:59:08.360 Where's the part

00:59:09.100 where he gets

00:59:09.560 to say it didn't

00:59:10.160 happen or

00:59:10.980 you don't understand

00:59:12.380 or it was consensual?

00:59:14.260 Now,

00:59:14.480 I don't know

00:59:14.760 if it was.

00:59:15.620 So I can neither

00:59:16.500 defend him

00:59:17.180 nor condemn him

00:59:18.540 because who knows?

00:59:20.120 But

00:59:20.320 yeah,

00:59:22.380 yeah,

00:59:22.680 this is very

00:59:23.400 wrong.

00:59:25.800 So the fact

00:59:27.300 that he happens

00:59:27.820 to be a Democrat

00:59:28.700 shouldn't

00:59:29.900 internally

00:59:30.840 is,

00:59:31.400 you know,

00:59:32.520 handling this

00:59:33.360 the correct way.

00:59:34.320 It shouldn't matter

00:59:35.080 what party he's in.

00:59:36.680 If this happened

00:59:37.340 to a Republican,

00:59:38.180 you'd be squeaking a lot

00:59:39.480 if you're a Republican.

00:59:41.940 This just happened

00:59:42.860 to happen

00:59:43.140 to a Democrat.

00:59:44.540 So did he do

00:59:45.560 bad things?

00:59:46.180 I don't know.

00:59:47.400 I don't know.

00:59:47.960 I just know

00:59:48.480 that the process

00:59:49.160 that they put him through

00:59:50.120 is not an American process.

00:59:52.620 The American process

00:59:53.680 is you get to

00:59:54.520 face your accusers,

00:59:55.800 have your day in court,

00:59:57.140 or at least get to

00:59:58.260 tell your side of things.

01:00:01.220 All right.

01:00:03.180 Here's some number,

01:00:04.200 well,

01:00:05.380 how many of you think

01:00:07.220 that the January 6th

01:00:08.940 committee should be

01:00:09.780 arrested and jailed?

01:00:15.040 Yeah.

01:00:15.840 Because again,

01:00:16.640 the January 6th

01:00:17.900 committee

01:00:18.220 did not do

01:00:20.320 a government function

01:00:21.520 in a government way,

01:00:23.040 in a transparent way,

01:00:24.320 in an honorable

01:00:25.620 and legal way.

01:00:27.200 If they had done that

01:00:28.440 and I just didn't like

01:00:29.580 the outcome,

01:00:30.340 I'd say,

01:00:30.780 vote him out of office.

01:00:33.640 Vote him out.

01:00:35.100 But to me,

01:00:35.880 it looks like,

01:00:36.660 based on what we know today,

01:00:38.300 especially the information

01:00:40.200 they deleted,

01:00:41.920 and having watched

01:00:43.460 the whole thing live,

01:00:44.500 that it was just an up.

01:00:46.320 And if it's an up,

01:00:47.840 in other words,

01:00:48.440 a managed,

01:00:51.220 planned,

01:00:52.120 coordinated

01:00:52.720 attempt

01:00:54.000 to take the president

01:00:55.120 of the United States

01:00:55.820 out of office

01:00:56.540 on bullshit, 0.78

01:00:58.880 then that should be

01:01:00.200 some kind of

01:01:00.680 RICO

01:01:00.960 or organized crime thing.

01:01:02.620 I would think

01:01:02.960 they should all be jailed.

01:01:06.380 Do you agree?

01:01:07.960 Now,

01:01:08.460 obviously,

01:01:09.480 and we just talked

01:01:10.340 about Cuomo,

01:01:11.540 I don't want them

01:01:12.420 jailed just because

01:01:13.280 I have suspicions.

01:01:15.020 That's not good enough.

01:01:16.100 I don't want any kind

01:01:17.560 of a witch hunt

01:01:19.080 on top of a witch hunt.

01:01:21.360 It has to be

01:01:21.900 a legal process.

01:01:22.840 It has to be transparent.

01:01:23.920 It has to be ethical

01:01:25.540 and done right.

01:01:27.760 But to me,

01:01:29.280 it's pretty obvious

01:01:30.200 this was a major

01:01:31.100 criminal act

01:01:31.980 against the United States

01:01:34.400 and against the citizens.

01:01:36.280 And that would be

01:01:37.880 the first thing

01:01:38.640 I would want

01:01:39.220 after the border

01:01:39.940 gets closed.

01:01:41.200 The first thing

01:01:42.060 I would want

01:01:42.580 from a Trump administration,

01:01:44.300 should it happen,

01:01:44.880 would be to

01:01:46.580 announce charges

01:01:47.880 against the people 0.98

01:01:48.800 on the committee

01:01:50.120 and at least

01:01:51.560 make them defend themselves.

01:01:53.720 If they have a defense,

01:01:55.220 I'm willing to listen.

01:01:56.480 But to me,

01:01:56.880 it looks like

01:01:57.380 as an American citizen,

01:01:58.800 what they did

01:01:59.260 was a crime

01:02:00.300 at a level

01:02:02.360 that sometimes

01:02:03.020 there's execution

01:02:04.060 as a,

01:02:05.880 you know,

01:02:06.160 if it looked like treason,

01:02:07.520 it would be execution

01:02:08.700 would be on the,

01:02:10.000 at least on your mind.

01:02:11.620 I don't think

01:02:12.300 they should be executed.

01:02:13.180 but maybe

01:02:16.180 they need to be

01:02:16.800 in jail.

01:02:18.080 Based on what

01:02:18.840 we can observe,

01:02:21.700 it looks like

01:02:22.240 a horrible crime

01:02:23.400 was done.

01:02:24.260 Now,

01:02:24.460 the reason I'm

01:02:24.960 treating this

01:02:25.500 as more,

01:02:26.380 worse than other things,

01:02:27.480 you know,

01:02:27.660 because the government

01:02:28.180 does a lot of bad things,

01:02:29.380 it does appear

01:02:30.200 that they intentionally

01:02:31.920 created a narrative

01:02:33.220 that would jail

01:02:34.060 hundreds of Americans

01:02:35.440 who shouldn't

01:02:36.540 have been jailed.

01:02:37.800 It's one thing

01:02:38.880 if the public

01:02:39.960 goes after

01:02:40.700 a political person.

01:02:42.020 You know,

01:02:43.000 maybe they break

01:02:43.640 the law

01:02:44.020 when they're doing it.

01:02:45.060 Maybe they act

01:02:45.700 unethically.

01:02:46.860 So going after

01:02:47.460 a political person

01:02:48.360 feels completely different

01:02:50.180 because I think

01:02:51.840 that in order

01:02:52.600 to get this

01:02:53.200 political person,

01:02:54.180 they took out

01:02:54.720 maybe hundreds

01:02:55.460 of American

01:02:56.300 just citizens

01:02:57.580 and that

01:02:59.140 cannot go

01:03:00.380 unaddressed.

01:03:01.840 I'm not sure

01:03:02.760 I would want them

01:03:03.580 to be put in jail

01:03:04.980 just for what

01:03:05.700 they did to Trump.

01:03:08.140 That,

01:03:08.680 that doesn't feel

01:03:09.320 like enough,

01:03:09.800 but if they put

01:03:11.740 hundreds of Americans

01:03:12.680 in jail

01:03:13.200 just to get at Trump,

01:03:15.240 they need to be in jail.

01:03:17.240 They need to be in jail

01:03:18.380 for that.

01:03:19.180 And I think

01:03:19.980 the people

01:03:20.380 who are still

01:03:20.800 rotting in jail

01:03:21.540 right now

01:03:21.980 from January 6th

01:03:23.420 are all the,

01:03:24.400 it's all the argument

01:03:25.320 you need.

01:03:26.860 The people

01:03:27.420 who put them there

01:03:28.360 unjustly

01:03:30.180 are the ones

01:03:31.360 who should be there.

01:03:34.360 All right,

01:03:34.860 how many people

01:03:35.520 do you think

01:03:35.960 are active military

01:03:37.300 people in the

01:03:38.920 United States

01:03:39.420 today?

01:03:40.400 It's about 1.3

01:03:41.400 million active

01:03:42.700 service members.

01:03:44.060 Of our active

01:03:44.900 service members,

01:03:46.100 about what percent

01:03:47.000 do you think

01:03:47.660 are combat types

01:03:49.020 as opposed to

01:03:50.020 support and

01:03:51.360 everything else?

01:03:52.280 About 20%.

01:03:53.180 Oh, you knew

01:03:53.980 the number.

01:03:54.620 Yeah, it's about

01:03:55.000 20%.

01:03:55.700 Could be under.

01:03:58.080 And then we've

01:03:58.640 got 900,000

01:03:59.500 reserves and

01:04:00.700 probably the same

01:04:01.380 ratio of combat

01:04:02.660 ready.

01:04:03.980 So let's see,

01:04:05.180 that would be

01:04:05.860 20% of

01:04:07.980 2.3

01:04:09.140 460,000

01:04:12.020 did I do that

01:04:13.740 right?

01:04:14.540 Combat

01:04:15.100 people.

01:04:17.300 Now, how many

01:04:18.300 of the combat

01:04:19.060 troops are

01:04:19.580 already overseas?

01:04:21.800 How many are

01:04:22.620 overseas?

01:04:24.200 Half?

01:04:25.240 I have no idea.

01:04:26.240 80%,

01:04:26.780 20%?

01:04:28.180 Maybe half?

01:04:30.500 150,000.

01:04:31.820 Okay, if it was

01:04:32.560 150,000,

01:04:33.540 that might be

01:04:33.920 like a quarter

01:04:34.640 or something.

01:04:35.120 All right, so

01:04:36.500 that's how many

01:04:38.060 people we have

01:04:38.520 in the military.

01:04:41.120 And let's

01:04:41.420 compare that to,

01:04:42.600 all right, how

01:04:42.900 many militaries

01:04:45.240 served in

01:04:45.820 Vietnam War?

01:04:47.380 This would be the

01:04:48.280 combat people plus

01:04:49.500 anybody who was

01:04:50.720 over there.

01:04:51.680 Vietnam War,

01:04:52.820 American service

01:04:54.020 was 2.7 million.

01:04:56.360 Now, that's not

01:04:57.000 all at the same

01:04:57.580 time.

01:04:58.120 That includes the

01:04:59.060 people flowing

01:04:59.740 through and flowing

01:05:00.640 out.

01:05:01.560 But at one

01:05:02.360 point, 2.7

01:05:03.320 million, well,

01:05:03.920 not at one

01:05:04.360 point, cumulatively

01:05:05.780 2.7 million

01:05:06.880 Americans in

01:05:07.540 Vietnam War.

01:05:08.520 How many

01:05:09.100 military-age men

01:05:10.260 have come across

01:05:11.660 the border under

01:05:12.520 Biden's

01:05:13.120 administration?

01:05:16.500 Probably over

01:05:17.240 10 million.

01:05:18.800 We don't know

01:05:19.580 the exact number

01:05:20.300 because we don't

01:05:20.820 know the getaways.

01:05:22.520 But probably

01:05:23.680 over 10 million.

01:05:24.440 now, 10 million

01:05:28.260 military-age-fit

01:05:30.460 people, largely,

01:05:32.620 at least many of

01:05:33.480 them, from

01:05:33.880 countries that are

01:05:34.620 not our best

01:05:35.160 friends.

01:05:36.320 What kind of a

01:05:37.180 level of risk does

01:05:38.580 that look like?

01:05:40.740 CBP says 300,000

01:05:42.880 of them came over

01:05:43.800 just in December.

01:05:46.720 The number of

01:05:47.780 able-bodied men

01:05:48.840 that came over in

01:05:49.560 December is kind

01:05:51.060 of close to the

01:05:52.460 total number of

01:05:53.460 combat troops we

01:05:54.640 have.

01:05:56.520 Let me say it

01:05:57.100 again.

01:05:58.240 The number of

01:05:58.920 illegal migrants 0.94

01:05:59.800 of military age,

01:06:01.880 men, who came

01:06:03.600 across the border

01:06:04.340 just in December

01:06:05.620 approaches the

01:06:08.260 total number of

01:06:09.200 military people we

01:06:10.640 have for combat.

01:06:11.700 Now, to be fair,

01:06:17.440 a small group of

01:06:18.680 combat-ready people

01:06:19.860 could beat a

01:06:20.540 pretty big group

01:06:21.880 of under-armed

01:06:22.900 migrants who came 0.99

01:06:24.340 over and started

01:06:24.840 in trouble.

01:06:25.980 So numbers don't

01:06:26.880 tell the whole

01:06:27.320 story.

01:06:28.380 But we're

01:06:29.780 close to the

01:06:32.020 point where you

01:06:32.460 could get

01:06:32.760 overwhelmed.

01:06:33.540 And if they did

01:06:34.000 a October 7th

01:06:35.020 kind of Hamas

01:06:35.560 attack, if they

01:06:37.180 just said, look,

01:06:37.900 we've got 1,000

01:06:38.540 people now, we've

01:06:39.980 got 1,000 people

01:06:40.940 in 20 big cities.

01:06:43.240 And those 1,000

01:06:44.140 people spread over

01:06:45.040 20 cities are all

01:06:46.040 going to activate

01:06:46.560 at the same time.

01:06:47.840 And I'm not going

01:06:48.440 to give them any

01:06:49.020 ideas, but if you

01:06:51.500 told me I had to

01:06:52.440 destroy a city, I

01:06:54.540 could do it myself.

01:06:56.880 So if you had

01:06:58.320 dozens of people

01:06:59.640 working on it,

01:07:01.940 you could take

01:07:02.920 down the top 20

01:07:04.180 cities in the

01:07:04.860 United States in

01:07:05.640 one day.

01:07:06.720 You could make

01:07:07.540 them unlivable

01:07:08.420 in one day.

01:07:10.320 And again,

01:07:10.940 I'm not going

01:07:11.360 to give you

01:07:11.660 ideas.

01:07:12.540 They'll have to

01:07:13.100 do that

01:07:13.400 themselves.

01:07:14.480 So that's the

01:07:15.500 risk we have.

01:07:16.420 And that's what

01:07:16.880 we let into the

01:07:17.520 country.

01:07:18.300 So I saw some

01:07:19.080 footage yesterday.

01:07:20.120 Do you remember

01:07:20.540 that Brad Pitt

01:07:21.220 movie, World War

01:07:22.220 Z?

01:07:23.180 And there's a

01:07:23.640 famous scene

01:07:24.340 where it's CGI,

01:07:25.740 but there's like

01:07:26.440 thousands of

01:07:27.920 zombies trying to

01:07:29.440 climb over this

01:07:30.380 high wall?

01:07:32.540 Well, I saw that

01:07:33.540 clip as a meme

01:07:34.660 yesterday.

01:07:35.680 And I thought,

01:07:36.580 oh, I knew this

01:07:37.440 was going to

01:07:37.780 happen.

01:07:38.540 You know,

01:07:38.700 sooner or later,

01:07:39.640 somebody's going to

01:07:40.220 do those World

01:07:40.960 War Z video

01:07:42.840 clips, and they're

01:07:43.880 going to put that

01:07:45.040 in a story about

01:07:45.940 immigration.

01:07:47.200 And then I looked

01:07:47.780 at it closer.

01:07:49.940 It wasn't a

01:07:51.140 World War Z movie

01:07:52.320 clip.

01:07:54.780 It was actual

01:07:55.800 video of swarming

01:08:00.900 of this wall.

01:08:03.400 It was actual

01:08:04.480 video.

01:08:04.900 And I'm not

01:08:06.280 joking.

01:08:07.440 I legitimately

01:08:08.260 thought it was

01:08:09.020 from the World

01:08:09.660 War Z, because 0.87

01:08:10.920 I didn't think in

01:08:11.840 the real world we'd

01:08:12.960 ever see anything

01:08:13.600 like it.

01:08:15.520 Yeah, it was

01:08:16.600 crazy.

01:08:18.440 So, as Elon

01:08:20.240 Musk and David

01:08:21.020 Sachs and

01:08:21.580 everybody smart

01:08:22.360 has said, it's

01:08:23.160 obvious that the

01:08:24.000 policy is for an

01:08:25.380 open border.

01:08:26.140 You can't say it's

01:08:27.200 an accident.

01:08:28.720 And none of this

01:08:29.360 looks like an

01:08:29.900 accident.

01:08:31.440 But, so what's

01:08:33.280 going on with

01:08:33.840 Texas?

01:08:34.300 So, Texas is

01:08:35.180 holding tough.

01:08:37.880 There's a little

01:08:38.620 bit of fog of war

01:08:39.740 about what the

01:08:40.480 Biden administration

01:08:41.280 is or is not

01:08:42.280 doing about it.

01:08:44.060 So, some say

01:08:45.260 that the Border

01:08:46.640 Patrol decided

01:08:47.620 they wouldn't cut

01:08:48.500 the wire.

01:08:49.680 But I don't think

01:08:50.320 that's confirmed.

01:08:51.380 I just know that

01:08:52.140 they haven't.

01:08:53.700 But they might.

01:08:55.420 I think everybody

01:08:56.500 understands now that

01:08:57.600 even if the

01:08:58.200 government did

01:08:59.200 cut the wire,

01:09:01.280 that Texas said,

01:09:02.260 Dan Patrick said,

01:09:03.280 specifically, yeah,

01:09:04.080 we'll just put it

01:09:04.560 right back.

01:09:05.780 And there's

01:09:06.360 nothing illegal

01:09:07.000 about that.

01:09:08.380 So, probably the

01:09:09.700 Border Patrol is

01:09:10.500 not going to waste

01:09:11.260 their time cutting

01:09:12.700 the wire if Texas

01:09:14.260 is literally standing

01:09:15.440 behind them with

01:09:16.260 another bale of

01:09:17.060 wire, which is

01:09:18.740 what exactly they

01:09:19.480 should do, right?

01:09:21.140 If the Border

01:09:23.380 Patrol cuts them,

01:09:24.800 you should stand

01:09:25.360 right behind them

01:09:26.060 and show them

01:09:27.880 that all of their

01:09:29.560 energy and time is

01:09:30.480 a complete waste

01:09:31.260 because as soon as

01:09:32.300 you walk away,

01:09:33.620 I'm going to put

01:09:34.100 this back and

01:09:35.720 then do it.

01:09:36.880 So, I don't think

01:09:37.840 the Border Patrol

01:09:38.380 has any reason to

01:09:39.300 actually remove any

01:09:40.400 wire because if

01:09:41.440 they're smart,

01:09:42.100 they'll just let

01:09:42.600 the political,

01:09:43.620 legal process work

01:09:45.160 its way out and

01:09:45.780 then you can decide

01:09:46.580 what wire goes

01:09:47.960 where.

01:09:50.040 So, but Biden

01:09:51.580 also paused some

01:09:52.480 approvals on a

01:09:53.360 bunch of, you

01:09:55.160 know, liquid gas

01:09:56.300 export terminals

01:09:58.340 that included

01:09:59.160 Texas.

01:10:00.440 some say the

01:10:02.580 timing suggests

01:10:03.500 they did it

01:10:04.140 because they

01:10:04.620 want to punish

01:10:05.160 Texas.

01:10:06.280 Some say it

01:10:08.080 affects other

01:10:08.880 states and they

01:10:09.500 were going to do

01:10:09.940 it anyway.

01:10:10.480 It's a climate

01:10:10.960 change thing. 0.82

01:10:12.080 In our current

01:10:13.020 situation, I don't

01:10:14.140 assume coincidence.

01:10:16.540 Possible.

01:10:17.640 But I don't

01:10:18.680 assume coincidence

01:10:19.600 in these cases.

01:10:22.180 And I guess

01:10:23.040 Biden sold a

01:10:24.580 bunch of our

01:10:25.040 helium, our

01:10:27.140 helium reserves,

01:10:27.940 but I'm not

01:10:28.820 sure that's a

01:10:29.320 real story.

01:10:30.260 We'll get back

01:10:30.700 to that.

01:10:32.040 So, here's

01:10:34.140 what the new

01:10:35.200 border, the

01:10:39.380 border legislation

01:10:40.200 is being

01:10:40.660 considered.

01:10:41.240 This is what it

01:10:41.740 would do.

01:10:42.360 So, basically,

01:10:43.320 it would make

01:10:44.380 it legal for

01:10:45.280 massive amounts

01:10:46.260 of non-citizens 0.91

01:10:47.760 to come across

01:10:48.400 the border of

01:10:49.760 5,000 a day.

01:10:51.680 That's just the

01:10:52.420 ones you see.

01:10:52.980 So, there

01:10:54.740 could still be

01:10:55.380 massive getaways

01:10:56.740 and people you

01:10:58.560 don't see come

01:10:59.180 across.

01:11:00.120 So, that's not

01:11:00.840 part of this.

01:11:02.040 But if they

01:11:02.860 count to 5,000,

01:11:04.900 then after that

01:11:05.680 number, they'd

01:11:06.220 start getting

01:11:06.720 tough and trying

01:11:07.780 to stop them.

01:11:09.480 That's the

01:11:10.040 dumbest idea I've

01:11:10.840 ever heard.

01:11:11.820 It's just the

01:11:12.280 dumbest idea.

01:11:15.520 But the

01:11:16.840 shutdown also

01:11:17.600 takes effect if

01:11:18.520 there are more

01:11:19.240 than 8,500

01:11:19.960 migrant encounters

01:11:21.240 in a single

01:11:21.840 day.

01:11:22.060 Oh, so that

01:11:23.140 would count

01:11:23.540 encounters, but

01:11:25.000 it wouldn't

01:11:25.340 count anybody

01:11:25.960 who just got

01:11:27.040 through and

01:11:27.580 nobody saw

01:11:28.060 them.

01:11:32.460 All right, so

01:11:33.200 it's basically

01:11:33.740 a plan not to

01:11:35.880 stop immigration. 0.99

01:11:37.660 It's a plan to

01:11:38.800 guarantee there's

01:11:39.540 lots of it, just

01:11:40.900 not quite as

01:11:41.920 much as there

01:11:42.420 is now.

01:11:43.200 So, it's a

01:11:43.800 ridiculous, stupid

01:11:44.800 plan that nobody

01:11:46.340 should approve,

01:11:47.600 and it doesn't

01:11:48.740 even look like

01:11:49.200 it's real.

01:11:49.780 I mean, it

01:11:50.000 looks like it

01:11:50.400 was just done

01:11:50.960 for political

01:11:51.540 reasons.

01:11:52.060 It's so

01:11:52.280 bad.

01:11:56.440 But there

01:11:57.020 are some

01:11:57.340 good points

01:11:57.880 of it you

01:11:58.240 would keep,

01:11:58.800 which is

01:11:59.140 what makes

01:11:59.540 it a good

01:12:00.100 poison pill.

01:12:01.680 So, the

01:12:01.920 reason it's

01:12:03.000 a poison pill

01:12:03.620 is they'll

01:12:04.560 put a few

01:12:04.960 things in

01:12:05.420 there that

01:12:05.760 look good,

01:12:06.380 and you're

01:12:06.560 like, oh,

01:12:07.860 all right,

01:12:08.240 here's the

01:12:08.620 thing where

01:12:09.000 a migrant

01:12:09.560 caught trying

01:12:10.100 to cross

01:12:11.140 twice, you 0.68

01:12:12.520 know, during

01:12:12.820 the shutdown

01:12:13.300 phase would

01:12:14.000 be banned

01:12:14.460 from entering

01:12:14.980 for one

01:12:15.420 year.

01:12:15.800 And you

01:12:15.980 think, oh,

01:12:17.120 well, maybe

01:12:17.680 that's good.

01:12:18.580 But I think

01:12:19.280 some of these

01:12:19.880 things that you

01:12:20.400 would agree

01:12:20.800 with that

01:12:21.600 are put

01:12:21.900 in there

01:12:22.280 are just

01:12:23.220 so it

01:12:23.560 looks like

01:12:23.900 there are

01:12:24.140 a few

01:12:24.360 things that

01:12:24.840 are not

01:12:25.320 crazy.

01:12:26.340 The crazy

01:12:27.100 part is that

01:12:27.940 we're going

01:12:28.180 to allow

01:12:28.600 illegal immigration

01:12:29.780 at a level

01:12:30.460 that would

01:12:30.960 be a serious

01:12:32.300 problem.

01:12:34.260 Why?

01:12:34.740 And of

01:12:37.820 course, there's

01:12:38.180 nothing in

01:12:38.620 here about

01:12:39.060 mass deportation,

01:12:40.400 which I

01:12:40.680 think has

01:12:41.060 to be part

01:12:41.500 of it at

01:12:41.820 this point.

01:12:43.880 All right.

01:12:45.500 There's a

01:12:46.100 trucker convoy

01:12:47.080 that's heading

01:12:48.300 down to the

01:12:49.680 border.

01:12:50.480 I guess it's

01:12:51.200 mostly American

01:12:51.920 truckers, but

01:12:52.640 maybe some

01:12:53.160 Canadians will 0.94

01:12:53.940 join in.

01:12:57.320 And that

01:12:57.900 should be

01:12:58.220 January 29th

01:12:59.480 for a few

01:12:59.920 days.

01:13:01.160 I'm not

01:13:01.740 sure I

01:13:02.120 recommend this

01:13:02.940 because they're

01:13:05.220 going to get

01:13:05.560 January 6th.

01:13:07.500 I mean, their

01:13:07.980 names will be

01:13:10.340 collected, they

01:13:11.060 will be abused

01:13:11.800 like the

01:13:12.180 Canadian

01:13:12.580 truckers were,

01:13:13.660 and I don't

01:13:14.360 think it

01:13:14.820 would make a

01:13:15.240 difference.

01:13:16.400 If it would

01:13:17.060 make a

01:13:17.460 difference, I'd

01:13:18.260 feel differently,

01:13:19.200 but I don't

01:13:20.100 feel like the

01:13:20.680 trucks or lack

01:13:21.620 of trucks would 0.87

01:13:22.400 make a difference

01:13:23.240 because I think

01:13:24.260 the trucks make

01:13:25.020 sense when you're

01:13:25.700 blocking traffic

01:13:26.660 and people say,

01:13:27.920 oh, I'll do

01:13:28.500 anything to make

01:13:29.220 this truck thing

01:13:30.840 go away. 0.82

01:13:31.700 But if you're

01:13:32.420 just driving

01:13:33.300 around the

01:13:35.320 unpopulated

01:13:36.100 border areas,

01:13:38.400 is that going

01:13:38.760 to make a

01:13:39.060 difference?

01:13:40.400 To me, it

01:13:41.060 looks like it

01:13:41.540 could be a

01:13:42.100 trick to

01:13:43.580 trick a bunch

01:13:44.180 of people into

01:13:44.900 acting out too

01:13:46.700 hard and getting

01:13:47.440 arrested.

01:13:48.380 I don't trust

01:13:49.120 any of that.

01:13:51.560 Well, meanwhile,

01:13:52.500 the U.S.

01:13:53.260 carried out

01:13:53.680 another strike in

01:13:54.400 Yemen because the 1.00

01:13:55.780 Houthis were 1.00

01:13:56.300 getting ready,

01:13:56.940 they say, to

01:13:57.540 launch another

01:13:58.740 attack.

01:14:00.520 What the hell

01:14:01.240 are we going to

01:14:01.640 do about Yemen?

01:14:03.680 I feel like Yemen 0.89

01:14:04.740 has no solution.

01:14:07.820 Yeah.

01:14:08.720 But the one

01:14:10.260 thing that I

01:14:11.040 would do

01:14:11.540 probably,

01:14:13.160 correct me if

01:14:13.840 I'm wrong,

01:14:14.680 didn't we work

01:14:15.420 really hard to

01:14:16.480 stop Saudi 1.00

01:14:17.340 Arabia from

01:14:18.100 doing atrocities

01:14:20.480 in Yemen?

01:14:22.180 Because the

01:14:23.240 Saudis wanted 1.00

01:14:23.920 to attack the

01:14:25.820 Houthis because 0.99

01:14:26.660 they were being

01:14:27.220 supported by Iran,

01:14:28.380 right?

01:14:29.020 Don't you think

01:14:29.680 the best thing we

01:14:30.360 could do is say,

01:14:30.900 you know what?

01:14:32.140 Saudi, do 0.95

01:14:33.220 whatever you

01:14:33.620 want.

01:14:35.520 Do whatever you

01:14:36.340 want.

01:14:37.260 Why don't we just

01:14:37.820 let the Saudis 1.00

01:14:38.540 take care of it?

01:14:39.120 I mean, they

01:14:39.440 would literally be

01:14:40.200 beheading them in a

01:14:41.100 public square.

01:14:42.300 It's just not our

01:14:43.240 problem.

01:14:44.360 Our problem is we

01:14:45.500 don't want the

01:14:46.380 ships to be hit

01:14:47.280 with missiles.

01:14:48.780 The Houthis' 0.99

01:14:49.420 problem is that the

01:14:50.520 Saudis will behead 1.00

01:14:51.440 every one of them

01:14:52.200 if they get a

01:14:52.780 chance.

01:14:53.880 That's their

01:14:54.380 problem.

01:14:55.780 Let's not make

01:14:56.400 our problem,

01:14:57.040 let's not make

01:14:58.540 our problem

01:14:59.100 confused with

01:14:59.940 the Houthis' 0.50

01:15:01.100 problem.

01:15:01.900 The Houthis have 0.99

01:15:02.580 a problem that

01:15:03.160 they have a

01:15:03.720 neighbor that

01:15:04.260 is willing to

01:15:04.880 seriously kill

01:15:06.600 them.

01:15:07.560 And I say we

01:15:08.200 let the Saudis 1.00

01:15:09.080 do whatever

01:15:09.500 they want,

01:15:09.980 free pass.

01:15:12.060 One more

01:15:12.700 missile and we

01:15:13.420 just unload and

01:15:14.500 say, look,

01:15:15.640 Saudi Arabia will 0.89

01:15:16.600 even give you

01:15:17.180 logistical support.

01:15:19.040 You just kill

01:15:19.540 them all.

01:15:20.420 Because at this

01:15:21.180 point, what the

01:15:22.040 hell are you

01:15:22.280 going to do?

01:15:23.380 Well, I mean,

01:15:23.920 what's the option?

01:15:24.980 You're not going

01:15:25.420 to let them

01:15:25.760 close down

01:15:26.540 shipping.

01:15:27.620 If you let

01:15:28.340 them close down

01:15:28.980 shipping, somebody

01:15:29.700 is going to do

01:15:30.200 more of that.

01:15:31.020 You have to

01:15:31.460 actually just

01:15:32.260 devastate an

01:15:34.220 enemy that's

01:15:34.820 doing that,

01:15:35.520 whatever the

01:15:36.240 cost.

01:15:37.540 Will there be

01:15:38.300 civilian deaths?

01:15:39.840 Of course,

01:15:40.560 because it will

01:15:41.020 be war.

01:15:42.540 But you have

01:15:42.980 to do it

01:15:43.340 anyway.

01:15:44.500 So, did I

01:15:47.720 miss any big

01:15:48.260 stories?

01:15:50.300 My prediction

01:15:51.180 on the border

01:15:51.760 was that the

01:15:52.640 federal government

01:15:53.680 would back

01:15:54.180 down because

01:15:55.400 we've now

01:15:56.100 assembled enough

01:15:57.380 muscle and

01:15:58.900 political will

01:15:59.700 that the

01:16:01.000 federal government,

01:16:02.640 they know,

01:16:03.560 they've gamed it

01:16:04.500 out in their

01:16:04.860 heads.

01:16:05.380 They know they

01:16:05.840 can't win this.

01:16:07.460 So, I think

01:16:09.240 we're seeing a

01:16:09.980 reassertion of

01:16:11.440 male power and

01:16:13.720 that people are

01:16:15.480 willing to say

01:16:16.120 out loud now,

01:16:17.180 and I think I

01:16:17.840 helped with that,

01:16:19.480 that women are 1.00

01:16:20.740 the wrong choice

01:16:21.440 for protecting the

01:16:22.320 border.

01:16:22.560 gender.

01:16:25.060 Doesn't mean

01:16:25.800 every woman,

01:16:27.000 of course,

01:16:28.180 and it doesn't

01:16:28.640 mean every man

01:16:29.380 would be good

01:16:29.940 at it.

01:16:31.060 It does mean

01:16:31.880 that men are

01:16:32.660 biologically suited

01:16:33.840 for keeping the

01:16:35.800 other men away

01:16:37.120 from their women. 0.92

01:16:39.860 The men in the

01:16:41.360 United States are

01:16:42.140 looking at all

01:16:42.960 these competitors

01:16:43.760 coming in,

01:16:44.880 you know,

01:16:45.060 the men,

01:16:45.860 and saying,

01:16:46.760 I will stop

01:16:47.540 that.

01:16:48.640 You know,

01:16:49.280 let's do less

01:16:50.080 of that.

01:16:51.880 So, yeah,

01:16:52.560 I think men 0.84

01:16:53.060 will eventually

01:16:53.680 get this done.

01:16:55.400 I don't think

01:16:56.260 there will be a

01:16:56.760 shooting civil war.

01:16:57.920 I see almost no

01:16:58.920 chance of that,

01:16:59.760 unless it's just

01:17:00.380 like a crazy person

01:17:01.460 in one place or

01:17:02.400 something,

01:17:03.080 but not in any

01:17:04.000 kind of general

01:17:04.680 civil war way.

01:17:06.300 All we really

01:17:06.960 needed was for

01:17:07.800 men to reassert

01:17:08.780 themselves.

01:17:09.700 The part that

01:17:10.100 was missing is

01:17:11.520 that the men

01:17:12.020 were too afraid

01:17:12.940 to raise their

01:17:13.760 heads and say

01:17:14.360 what was obvious

01:17:15.180 and true and

01:17:15.840 needed to be done.

01:17:16.540 But I think men

01:17:17.700 at this point

01:17:18.260 have said,

01:17:18.900 okay,

01:17:19.060 we're going to

01:17:19.440 do what's

01:17:19.780 obvious and

01:17:20.320 true and

01:17:20.640 needs to be

01:17:21.060 done.

01:17:23.000 What if it's

01:17:23.660 really expensive

01:17:24.300 and people get

01:17:25.000 mad at you?

01:17:26.500 It doesn't

01:17:26.880 matter now.

01:17:28.620 You know,

01:17:28.820 before you could

01:17:29.480 say to yourself,

01:17:30.000 you know,

01:17:30.580 I don't like

01:17:31.540 this immigration,

01:17:32.440 but it's not

01:17:32.960 so bad that I

01:17:35.280 want to lose my

01:17:36.040 job over it,

01:17:37.200 like,

01:17:37.440 because I said

01:17:38.020 something.

01:17:38.720 But now people

01:17:39.560 are saying,

01:17:40.120 oh, yeah,

01:17:40.320 I'll lose my

01:17:40.840 job over this.

01:17:42.120 Yeah,

01:17:42.300 you can cancel

01:17:42.940 me,

01:17:43.620 but I'm not

01:17:44.160 going to let

01:17:44.480 the country be

01:17:45.080 overrun.

01:17:46.540 That's not

01:17:47.340 going to

01:17:47.500 happen.

01:17:48.360 So I think

01:17:48.700 men have

01:17:49.120 finally reached

01:17:49.640 their limit,

01:17:50.660 and some good

01:17:51.780 things might

01:17:52.320 happen from it.

01:17:54.140 I don't think

01:17:55.040 we can ignore

01:17:55.720 that every woman

01:17:56.680 on the Supreme

01:17:57.340 Court voted

01:17:58.600 to let the

01:17:59.460 government take

01:18:00.140 down the barbed

01:18:00.780 wire.

01:18:02.080 If that feels

01:18:03.040 like a coincidence

01:18:03.780 to you,

01:18:05.440 and remember,

01:18:06.200 that included,

01:18:07.260 you know,

01:18:07.520 one Republican

01:18:08.180 woman.

01:18:09.360 So I don't

01:18:10.780 think that's

01:18:11.180 a coincidence.

01:18:12.340 Yeah,

01:18:12.760 I don't think

01:18:13.280 that's a coincidence.

01:18:13.880 I think

01:18:15.200 that women 0.97

01:18:15.580 are just

01:18:15.980 not biologically,

01:18:17.620 on average,

01:18:18.620 again,

01:18:18.980 lots of

01:18:19.400 exceptions,

01:18:20.540 but on average,

01:18:21.260 I don't think

01:18:21.680 they should be

01:18:22.140 involved in the

01:18:22.860 defending the

01:18:23.600 country decisions.

01:18:25.960 Now,

01:18:26.940 do you remember

01:18:27.460 when you all

01:18:28.520 got mad at me

01:18:29.220 and yelled at me

01:18:29.780 and said,

01:18:30.960 I said I should

01:18:32.060 stay out of

01:18:32.900 abortion decisions,

01:18:34.240 me personally,

01:18:35.440 because as a

01:18:36.040 man who's not

01:18:36.920 having a child,

01:18:37.960 I don't have

01:18:38.440 skin in the game.

01:18:40.340 Well,

01:18:40.620 the skin in the

01:18:41.320 game in this

01:18:41.820 case is men,

01:18:43.180 because ultimately

01:18:44.180 we're the ones

01:18:45.560 who are going

01:18:45.820 to have to

01:18:46.200 lock these

01:18:46.840 people up,

01:18:48.020 protect you

01:18:48.620 from them,

01:18:49.820 form a bigger

01:18:50.540 military to

01:18:51.380 fight whoever

01:18:52.420 we've got to

01:18:52.900 fight.

01:18:53.820 So I think

01:18:54.480 women should 1.00

01:18:54.960 just stay the

01:18:55.500 fuck out of

01:18:56.200 all the

01:18:56.780 national defense

01:18:57.660 questions.

01:18:58.800 Legally,

01:18:59.400 of course,

01:18:59.780 they're citizens

01:19:00.340 so they can

01:19:00.960 vote and weigh

01:19:01.940 in if they

01:19:02.880 like,

01:19:03.580 but just as a

01:19:04.400 better process,

01:19:05.620 I'd like to

01:19:06.620 not give you

01:19:07.860 my opinion

01:19:08.420 about abortion.

01:19:11.040 But again,

01:19:11.820 other men,

01:19:12.420 if you want

01:19:12.800 to,

01:19:13.040 it's a free

01:19:13.400 country,

01:19:13.900 you have every

01:19:14.460 right to do

01:19:14.940 that.

01:19:15.920 And at

01:19:17.680 least I can

01:19:18.240 be not a

01:19:18.880 hypocrite, 0.72

01:19:20.560 right?

01:19:21.380 Not a

01:19:21.940 hypocrite. 0.86

01:19:22.780 So when I

01:19:23.340 say that I'm

01:19:24.260 going to stay

01:19:24.640 out of abortion

01:19:25.300 because I

01:19:25.920 think women 0.63

01:19:26.320 are more

01:19:26.740 capable and

01:19:27.780 more skin in

01:19:28.620 the game and

01:19:29.120 it's more

01:19:29.440 credible if

01:19:30.720 they're the

01:19:31.020 ones who are

01:19:31.540 the dominant

01:19:32.200 opinion,

01:19:33.680 the same with

01:19:35.080 national defense.

01:19:36.360 A national

01:19:36.920 defense decision

01:19:37.840 that's,

01:19:38.420 supported mostly

01:19:40.080 by women

01:19:40.680 would have no

01:19:41.360 credibility with

01:19:42.220 me because I

01:19:43.640 don't think they

01:19:44.080 have the right

01:19:44.460 biological instinct

01:19:45.660 for this.

01:19:47.480 And again,

01:19:48.700 it's not every

01:19:49.320 woman, 1.00

01:19:49.920 it's not every

01:19:50.460 man,

01:19:50.960 it's just,

01:19:51.380 you know,

01:19:51.680 making general

01:19:52.340 truths.

01:19:55.120 All right.

01:19:59.380 Pipebomb's 0.95

01:20:00.100 story disappeared,

01:20:01.040 but I think we

01:20:01.560 can say,

01:20:02.060 you can say,

01:20:02.820 well,

01:20:08.580 yeah,

01:20:08.900 I talked

01:20:09.260 about abortion

01:20:09.900 as a mating

01:20:10.460 strategy,

01:20:11.140 but I'm not

01:20:11.560 telling you what

01:20:12.160 you should think

01:20:12.760 about it.

01:20:13.880 You can think

01:20:14.640 about it any

01:20:15.120 way you want.

01:20:16.100 I'm just giving

01:20:16.680 it a refrain.

01:20:19.800 All right.

01:20:20.420 abortion murders 0.55

01:20:26.360 the baby.

01:20:27.020 I'm not going

01:20:27.400 to talk about

01:20:27.840 this.

01:20:28.940 Yeah,

01:20:29.400 yeah,

01:20:29.700 you can try

01:20:30.480 to draw me

01:20:31.060 in,

01:20:31.800 but it's not

01:20:32.940 going to work.

01:20:34.240 And by the way,

01:20:35.140 I don't disrespect

01:20:36.300 your opinion on

01:20:37.500 abortion.

01:20:38.840 I'm not saying I

01:20:39.820 even disagree.

01:20:40.900 I'm saying that

01:20:41.720 the less you hear

01:20:42.920 from me on the

01:20:43.700 topic,

01:20:44.160 the better the

01:20:44.700 country is.

01:20:45.740 Because you

01:20:46.280 wouldn't want me

01:20:46.940 to be persuasive.

01:20:49.220 I wouldn't.

01:20:50.500 I don't think

01:20:51.340 that our abortion 0.60

01:20:51.960 laws should be

01:20:52.860 based on men

01:20:54.240 who are really

01:20:54.880 persuasive at

01:20:55.760 getting their way.

01:20:56.980 That would be

01:20:57.600 a bad system.

01:20:58.760 Even if the

01:20:59.500 decision is right,

01:21:00.920 it's a bad system.

01:21:02.420 And ultimately,

01:21:03.280 the system is

01:21:03.820 more important.

01:21:04.780 Because the system

01:21:05.620 will kill you

01:21:06.140 if you get it

01:21:06.600 wrong.

01:21:07.000 It'll kill everybody.

01:21:08.440 But, you know,

01:21:09.100 a bad decision

01:21:09.700 you could live

01:21:10.200 with.

01:21:14.480 All right.

01:21:15.300 And, again,

01:21:23.360 I'm not saying

01:21:23.900 that women 0.97

01:21:24.300 shouldn't be

01:21:24.800 involved.

01:21:26.240 Because there are

01:21:27.340 lots of individual

01:21:28.120 differences.

01:21:32.040 All right.

01:21:33.220 Yeah, Vivek had

01:21:33.940 an idea about

01:21:34.760 making the men

01:21:35.960 responsible for

01:21:37.880 life, for the

01:21:39.000 child, and I

01:21:39.820 think for the

01:21:40.260 mother's well-being

01:21:41.140 as well.

01:21:42.080 And that men

01:21:42.840 would stop

01:21:43.440 getting with

01:21:46.340 women without 0.99

01:21:46.940 protection if

01:21:48.120 they knew that

01:21:48.580 they would pay

01:21:49.000 for it for the

01:21:49.520 rest of their

01:21:49.920 life.

01:21:50.840 Maybe.

01:21:52.660 I mean, I

01:21:54.040 would just stop

01:21:54.960 having sex under 0.64

01:21:55.760 those conditions.

01:21:59.000 If I were a

01:22:01.700 young man, I

01:22:02.740 would just stop

01:22:03.240 having sex. 0.75

01:22:05.080 There's no way

01:22:06.080 that I would

01:22:07.840 have unprotected

01:22:08.940 sex with a 0.74

01:22:09.680 woman, or even

01:22:10.540 with protection

01:22:12.060 that might not

01:22:12.620 work, if I

01:22:14.140 thought that the

01:22:14.820 only recourse is

01:22:16.580 that I have to be

01:22:17.140 with her forever,

01:22:18.120 even if I didn't

01:22:19.380 want to be.

01:22:20.820 Yeah.

01:22:22.120 I'm going to do

01:22:22.800 full robot, if

01:22:23.740 that's the case.

01:22:25.660 We need those

01:22:26.440 robots.

01:22:27.780 All right, ladies 1.00

01:22:28.320 and gentlemen,

01:22:28.840 that's way too

01:22:29.540 much.

01:22:29.960 I'm going to say

01:22:30.380 goodbye to the

01:22:31.180 YouTube Rumble

01:22:32.120 and X platforms.

01:22:33.720 Thanks for

01:22:34.220 joining.

01:22:35.540 I hope it was

01:22:36.340 good for you,

01:22:36.940 too.

01:22:37.420 I'll see you

01:22:37.880 tomorrow morning,

01:22:38.460 same place.

01:22:38.900 Bye-bye.
