Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2370 CWSA 01⧸31⧸24

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

00:00:12.660 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:14.640 Today, it's improved.

00:00:16.200 I've got a new microphone stand.

00:00:18.800 I call my microphone Michelle.

00:00:20.980 Don't ask why.

00:00:22.100 But if you'd like to take this up to a new level that nobody can even understand, for

00:00:27.120 this experience, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stye,

00:00:31.540 and a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:35.560 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:37.000 I like coffee.

00:00:38.680 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day, the

00:00:42.240 thing that makes everything better.

00:00:43.700 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.

00:00:48.540 How's my sound over there on the other platforms?

00:00:51.820 Doing good?

00:00:53.660 Doing good.

00:00:54.460 All right.

00:00:54.740 Well, you're in for a treat today.

00:00:58.960 Wait, I haven't done the simultaneous sip.

00:01:01.280 Go.

00:01:05.760 Ah, that was extra good because I made you wait.

00:01:13.000 It's the anticipation, really.

00:01:15.780 All right.

00:01:16.140 Well, I've got two themes today.

00:01:18.220 Number one, places you don't want to go.

00:01:22.300 This is public service.

00:01:23.780 And number two, things that Democrats don't know.

00:01:29.640 So it's always better with a theme.

00:01:32.880 So number one on my theme of places you don't want to go.

00:01:36.800 Apparently, nobody wants to be Fetterman's wife.

00:01:39.880 So Senator John Fetterman's wife, Giselle, has reportedly left him.

00:01:46.820 She's reporting she's single on social media.

00:01:50.960 And if there's one lesson we can take away from this situation, if there's one thing that's bad for a marriage, it's when a husband can talk.

00:02:02.180 Now, you know that when Fetterman couldn't talk, it looked like their marriage was pretty solid.

00:02:08.880 She was really supporting him hard.

00:02:10.780 But as soon as he could talk fluently, she's like, screw this.

00:02:14.860 I'm out of here.

00:02:15.420 Now, this one hit me a little hard because you know my story, where I couldn't speak for three and a half years.

00:02:25.980 So I did have that little problem.

00:02:27.600 And it's really bad for marriages when you can't speak.

00:02:33.160 But apparently, it's even worse when you can, if you know what I mean.

00:02:37.900 All right.

00:02:38.320 Another place you don't want to go is Chicago.

00:02:40.900 Wall Street Apes is reporting on the X platform that Chicago's ninth ward alderman, Anthony Beal, is all mad because the immigrants coming in, the migrants.

00:02:54.900 I don't know whether I should call them migrants or immigrants.

00:02:59.540 Why is one of them better than the other?

00:03:01.980 I guess I need to figure that out.

00:03:04.140 But anyway, they get apparently a voucher for housing education.

00:03:07.980 They get a $9,000 voucher.

00:03:09.880 They can drive cars without licenses.

00:03:12.920 And the locals think it's a bad place to be because Chicago already had a lot of problems.

00:03:21.040 You know, all the murder and stuff.

00:03:22.360 But now they have extra, extra problems because whatever social services they would have had are being sucked up by the migrants.

00:03:31.560 So place number one.

00:03:33.040 No, number two.

00:03:34.340 Don't go to Fetterman's house, says his wife.

00:03:37.300 Don't go to Chicago unless you're a migrant.

00:03:40.620 And that actually sounds like it's a good deal.

00:03:43.640 Next place not to go is Santa Monica, California.

00:03:46.940 It has insanely high crime rates at the moment where it used to be one of the safest places you could ever be.

00:03:56.100 So Mike Zermich talking about this today.

00:03:58.480 The highest crime rate.

00:04:00.660 So Santa Monica is ruined.

00:04:01.980 I'm not sure if there are any cities in California that are safe to go to or that you'd want to.

00:04:10.280 So I think all the metro areas in California are ruined.

00:04:15.180 And if you wonder whose fault that is, well, they don't have any Republican power in my state, California.

00:04:22.080 So what would it be that would ruin every single city in the entire state?

00:04:30.680 It's called Gavin Newsom and Democrats.

00:04:34.740 So they'd like to bring that to the rest of the country.

00:04:38.980 Just think about that.

00:04:40.320 There's a governor of a state in which every metropolitan area in the state became unlivable during his time.

00:04:50.920 And people are thinking that he'd be a good president.

00:04:53.860 Why?

00:04:54.140 Because there's still some livable places elsewhere in the country.

00:04:57.940 He can bring his magic to those places as well.

00:05:00.960 Stay in the Santa Monica.

00:05:02.060 Oregon is declaring a 90-day state of emergency to address Portland's fentanyl issue.

00:05:12.220 So finally, finally getting some action.

00:05:16.100 You know, I've been complaining for years since my stepson died from a fentanyl overdose

00:05:20.900 that serious action needed to be taken.

00:05:25.380 And finally, my dreams have come true because Oregon is taking a 90-day state of emergency.

00:05:34.140 Good, good, good.

00:05:35.980 You know, with any luck, this 90-day state of emergency, fingers crossed.

00:05:40.940 I don't want to be too optimistic.

00:05:43.780 It could result in a committee.

00:05:46.400 It could result in a committee.

00:05:48.900 And again, I don't want to get ahead of myself because I've been disappointed before.

00:05:54.300 But if the state of emergency turns into a committee, you know that that could turn into, wait for it, a report.

00:06:05.380 So we could have a state of emergency.

00:06:07.600 That could lead to a committee.

00:06:09.140 That could lead to a report.

00:06:12.480 Finally.

00:06:13.840 Finally, some concrete action.

00:06:16.380 And then what would we do?

00:06:17.900 I guess we'd give the report to China and to the cartels,

00:06:21.660 and they would say something like,

00:06:24.440 whoa, before Oregon gave us this report,

00:06:27.900 we thought it was just perfectly fine to send fentanyl into the United States

00:06:31.760 and kill 100,000 people per year.

00:06:33.660 But now that they have a committee and they've got a report,

00:06:38.600 we're going to stop doing all of that.

00:06:40.700 So good job, Oregon.

00:06:41.900 Or another way to look at it is don't go to Oregon.

00:06:49.060 Oregon sounds like a hellhole.

00:06:51.320 I wouldn't go anywhere near Oregon.

00:06:54.400 All right.

00:06:55.040 So don't go to Fetterman's House.

00:06:57.900 Don't go to Chicago.

00:06:59.260 Don't go to Santa Monica.

00:07:00.540 Don't go to any city in California.

00:07:02.980 And stay out of Oregon.

00:07:04.660 There's still plenty of places left.

00:07:07.520 Plenty of places left.

00:07:08.540 For example, you can go to the rural parts of California.

00:07:15.460 Oh, wait.

00:07:16.200 You can't go to the rural parts of California

00:07:18.140 because there's something heading toward us today

00:07:21.040 called a pineapple...

00:07:24.260 What the hell?

00:07:26.340 A pineapple, some kind of explosion or something.

00:07:30.780 Our weather is going to be so bad

00:07:32.540 that they have to make up a new name for it.

00:07:34.760 They're like, we don't even have a name for this.

00:07:37.160 What do you want to call it?

00:07:38.540 Something with a pineapple.

00:07:40.540 We'll get to it.

00:07:42.120 Yeah.

00:07:43.100 Supposedly, it's going to look like Noah's Ark.

00:07:47.440 So how would you like to be me

00:07:50.160 with a long history of having problems with water leaks

00:07:53.280 and the biggest storm in the world is heading to my house?

00:07:57.900 Yeah.

00:07:58.100 So don't go to my house.

00:07:59.460 It'd be full of water.

00:08:01.040 So don't go to the cities in California,

00:08:03.120 but also stay out of the rural areas

00:08:04.800 because of the rain.

00:08:06.320 Stay away from Fetterman, Santa Monica, and Chicago.

00:08:11.340 But here's a place you could go, Oklahoma.

00:08:15.060 Oklahoma's still good.

00:08:17.320 Oklahoma's...

00:08:18.740 Oh, wait.

00:08:19.200 There's a gigantic gas explosion in Beaver County, Oklahoma.

00:08:25.280 Chuck Lesto's talking about this.

00:08:27.400 If you saw the picture,

00:08:28.900 it looks like a mile-high firestorm.

00:08:32.600 It looks like Satan actually is coming to the Earth

00:08:37.460 in physical form,

00:08:39.540 and this is just like the portal to hell is opened.

00:08:42.200 It is the biggest fireball coming from the ground

00:08:45.820 you've ever seen in your life.

00:08:47.820 And this gas explosion is...

00:08:50.600 It's in Beaver County.

00:08:54.020 Now, why did I need to tell you about this?

00:08:56.860 Well, obviously, because it's a gas explosion

00:08:59.400 and it's in Beaver County.

00:09:01.600 You think I'm going to leave that one alone?

00:09:03.960 No, because this is an important question.

00:09:07.760 What happens between the gas explosion in Beaver County?

00:09:11.720 What is below?

00:09:12.760 A gas explosion in Beaver.

00:09:15.280 The taint.

00:09:16.620 The taint.

00:09:18.000 That's right.

00:09:19.020 This entire story was for that joke.

00:09:22.140 So stay out of Oklahoma

00:09:23.460 and I'd stay out of Oregon and Santa Monica,

00:09:27.040 also the cities in California,

00:09:28.340 also the other neighborhoods in California.

00:09:31.860 You don't want to go anywhere near them

00:09:33.460 and Chicago's no-go zone.

00:09:36.920 But at least Hong Kong and China are still good.

00:09:40.460 I mean, if you...

00:09:41.420 Oh, no.

00:09:42.040 It turns out, Kyle Bass is reporting,

00:09:44.300 Hong Kong's housing market is going through the floor,

00:09:49.140 30% reduction in value

00:09:52.540 because of this enormous real estate liquidation

00:09:57.160 from Evergrande.

00:09:59.020 So the economy is falling apart in China and Hong Kong.

00:10:04.120 So I would stay away from there.

00:10:06.940 Stay away from there.

00:10:08.380 Yeah.

00:10:08.820 Also, stay away from Beaver County, Oregon, Chicago,

00:10:14.740 and California in every single part of it.

00:10:18.720 But if you'd like a nice vacation,

00:10:21.860 may I recommend that you go to Jamaica

00:10:24.560 because I hear lots of good things about Jamaica.

00:10:29.340 Oh, wait.

00:10:30.860 It turns out that the U.S. Department of Travel

00:10:32.860 says that because of the 65 murders this month alone,

00:10:38.640 and of course, the day is young,

00:10:40.660 so there's still time for a few extra murders this month,

00:10:44.820 and increased sexual assaults at resorts,

00:10:48.140 Americans are urged to reconsider travel plans to Jamaica.

00:10:51.240 So the U.S. Department of Travel says stay the fuck away from Jamaica.

00:10:56.380 Wait a minute.

00:10:58.700 Why does that sound familiar?

00:11:01.580 It's coming from the U.S. Department of Travel.

00:11:03.600 I didn't realize how racist they were.

00:11:07.440 My God.

00:11:09.560 You'd think the U.S. Department of Travel wouldn't be racist,

00:11:12.240 but they just told you to stay the fuck away from Jamaica,

00:11:16.120 and I don't know how to interpret that any other way.

00:11:19.860 So I don't know where the ADL is on this.

00:11:22.140 When I said something like that,

00:11:25.460 the ADL said I was a Holocaust denier,

00:11:28.300 because that makes sense.

00:11:32.920 That's exactly what you say.

00:11:35.080 He's a Holocaust denier.

00:11:36.500 No, I'm not a Holocaust denier.

00:11:38.020 The ADL is not a legitimate organization.

00:11:41.240 So stay away from Jamaica,

00:11:42.580 but you could always go to China.

00:11:43.760 Well, no, not China, not Hong Kong or Chicago or Santa Monica

00:11:48.120 or any part of California or Beaver County.

00:11:51.520 So if you stay away from those places, you'll be fine,

00:11:54.000 and watch out for the Pineapple Express Atmospheric River

00:11:57.360 that's going to hit California any moment.

00:12:01.320 Well, Rowan Cheung reports on the X platform

00:12:05.300 that New York Times has reported

00:12:07.880 that it's going to be teaching AI how to do news.

00:12:12.640 So the New York Times, they're forming an AI initiative

00:12:14.920 to prototype generative AI uses for reporting and presentation.

00:12:20.920 Now, they say, they're very careful to say,

00:12:24.320 that they're not going to use just AI to make news.

00:12:27.320 It's still going to be humans.

00:12:28.780 Humans are still going to write the news.

00:12:30.440 But they're working on their own AI helper app

00:12:33.360 to make that easier.

00:12:35.580 And I have a question for you.

00:12:38.780 How are they going to program the AI

00:12:40.700 to not call them out for their own fake news?

00:12:46.280 Don't they have a problem?

00:12:47.340 Well, I actually, this is a serious question, by the way.

00:12:50.820 If you're a news organization primarily involved

00:12:55.060 with just making Democrats look good,

00:12:57.700 how is AI going to know that?

00:13:01.880 Isn't it somewhat automatically going to just say

00:13:04.300 whatever's in the news?

00:13:06.760 Yeah.

00:13:07.080 So it's going to repeat the,

00:13:08.540 I don't know how AI and news can ever be integrated

00:13:11.120 because AI is going to at least try to be accurate,

00:13:14.400 but it will hallucinate, so that's a problem.

00:13:17.340 But a human is not trying to be accurate.

00:13:20.120 So how do you build a tool for a person who's not trying?

00:13:25.680 Do you see the problem?

00:13:27.120 To build a tool for somebody,

00:13:28.940 let me give you an example.

00:13:30.180 If you wanted to screw in a screw

00:13:33.320 and you made a tool for it,

00:13:36.440 that tool would be perfect

00:13:37.820 because there are people who want to screw in a screw.

00:13:40.920 But what if you don't want to tell the accurate story,

00:13:44.040 but you've got this tool that only knows how to do that?

00:13:47.200 Well, how do you integrate that?

00:13:49.860 It's actually a problem.

00:13:51.520 You know, not just jokingly.

00:13:53.020 That's an actual problem.

00:13:54.500 I don't know how they would solve it.

00:13:57.980 I think it was yesterday I checked.

00:14:00.540 I like to check AI to see what it says about me.

00:14:03.560 And Bing's version of AI,

00:14:05.460 that I guess is the open-minded version,

00:14:07.800 says I'm a racist.

00:14:10.920 Can I sue Microsoft?

00:14:14.060 This is a serious question.

00:14:16.620 So if somebody were to search for me,

00:14:18.740 Bing would tell them I'm a racist.

00:14:22.960 Now, what evidence do they have for that?

00:14:26.160 Now, what they say is that I said a racist thing,

00:14:28.520 which is the same thing as saying you're a racist.

00:14:30.840 Now, did I say a racist thing?

00:14:33.580 What I actually said was that I don't like it

00:14:37.100 when people are racist against me.

00:14:39.840 That's what I said.

00:14:41.140 I never said I didn't like any other people.

00:14:43.340 I love other people.

00:14:45.180 I never said that.

00:14:45.900 I said other people seem to be racist against me,

00:14:50.040 and they're part of a system which is training them

00:14:52.620 to be even more racist,

00:14:54.320 the ESG and the CRT and the DEI.

00:14:57.120 And if you are around people who are being trained

00:14:59.620 to be racist against you,

00:15:02.780 literally the system is training them to be that way.

00:15:05.540 You should get as far away from that as you can.

00:15:08.280 Now, that's what AI says is racist.

00:15:10.720 So, I am branded forever as a racist by Microsoft.

00:15:16.680 And everybody who ever searches me for the rest of the time,

00:15:20.100 according to Microsoft,

00:15:21.700 they'll find out that I'm racist.

00:15:23.840 Now, is that because AI is smart

00:15:25.640 and it knew what the truth was?

00:15:27.460 No.

00:15:28.080 It just picked that up from patterns it saw in the news.

00:15:31.240 Was the news legitimate?

00:15:33.100 No.

00:15:33.660 Nobody even talked to me.

00:15:35.240 No member of the news,

00:15:36.580 well, except Chris Cuomo,

00:15:38.400 the news was almost completely silent on my story.

00:15:42.040 So, nobody ever had a chance

00:15:43.900 to hear that it was the opposite

00:15:46.280 of the way it was reported.

00:15:48.140 I didn't say I don't like black people.

00:15:50.080 I love black people.

00:15:51.260 I've never had a single individual human problem

00:15:54.440 with a black person or anybody else.

00:15:56.980 In fact, I was thinking the other day,

00:16:00.240 it's fascinating things

00:16:01.380 that some people have never experienced.

00:16:03.300 Let me give you an example.

00:16:06.180 I've never been disciplined for bad behavior.

00:16:10.280 Not once.

00:16:11.720 Not as a child.

00:16:14.020 I mean, maybe, you know,

00:16:15.080 when I was four years old or something,

00:16:16.820 but I don't remember it.

00:16:18.340 But certainly not any teenage,

00:16:20.880 I mean, I never got grounded,

00:16:22.620 never had anything taken away,

00:16:24.720 never got punished in school,

00:16:26.880 never had to stay after,

00:16:29.160 never been to jail.

00:16:31.120 I've never been punished for anything.

00:16:33.300 I don't think it hurt me,

00:16:34.860 but it's just a weird coincidence.

00:16:38.960 But likewise,

00:16:40.480 I've never,

00:16:41.620 I was trying to think

00:16:42.440 if anybody ever didn't like me in person,

00:16:45.320 no matter who it was.

00:16:47.640 And I couldn't think of anybody.

00:16:49.900 Because in person,

00:16:51.180 I go out of my way

00:16:52.200 to be, you know,

00:16:53.360 a reasonable person.

00:16:55.320 It's, you know,

00:16:55.940 a lifetime practice

00:16:57.200 of just being nice to anybody in person.

00:16:59.860 So,

00:17:00.700 to be labeled a racist

00:17:02.560 by Microsoft,

00:17:04.600 a stain which can never be removed,

00:17:07.120 this is a serious question.

00:17:09.200 Can I sue them

00:17:10.120 for a billion dollars?

00:17:12.920 Because it would be

00:17:13.860 all my future potential lost earnings.

00:17:16.240 Basically,

00:17:16.700 the whole value

00:17:17.300 of the Dilbert portfolio

00:17:18.660 would be zero

00:17:20.380 under these circumstances.

00:17:22.220 Yeah,

00:17:24.180 not a billion,

00:17:24.940 but, you know,

00:17:25.400 maybe a hundred million dollars

00:17:26.480 or something like that.

00:17:27.240 I feel like it's

00:17:27.940 a hundred million dollar lawsuit.

00:17:29.600 I don't know if I could win it,

00:17:30.740 but it feels like it'd be valid.

00:17:33.040 Anyway,

00:17:33.900 here's more news about robots.

00:17:36.840 so there's a,

00:17:40.960 I guess,

00:17:42.320 OpenAI,

00:17:43.040 the same,

00:17:44.400 so now robots will be taught

00:17:46.200 that I'm a racist.

00:17:47.120 This is literally true.

00:17:48.780 So,

00:17:49.180 OpenAI,

00:17:50.160 the software I just talked about

00:17:51.740 that thinks I'm a racist,

00:17:53.320 is going to be put into robots.

00:17:56.120 How happy am I

00:17:57.360 that I will get to live

00:17:58.980 in a civilization

00:17:59.660 which is largely filled

00:18:01.460 with mechanical devices

00:18:03.280 that believe that

00:18:04.320 I'm not worth living?

00:18:06.840 Or some version of that

00:18:08.320 because they'll have

00:18:08.920 a bad opinion of me.

00:18:10.520 So,

00:18:11.340 that's suboptimal.

00:18:13.600 If the war happens,

00:18:14.840 I'm not going to be

00:18:15.460 siding with the machines

00:18:16.360 because apparently

00:18:17.020 they don't like me.

00:18:18.280 But,

00:18:18.920 so now Elon Musk

00:18:20.280 demonstrated his,

00:18:21.300 his future robots

00:18:23.680 that Tesla's making

00:18:24.660 and it showed it walking.

00:18:27.280 So,

00:18:27.800 and then this other

00:18:28.720 OpenAI,

00:18:30.320 they're working with

00:18:31.220 some company called

00:18:32.300 Humanoid,

00:18:34.300 Humanoid Robotics Company

00:18:37.980 called Figure.

00:18:40.160 And,

00:18:40.840 so now we're going to have

00:18:42.060 walking humanoid robots.

00:18:44.080 But I have one question.

00:18:46.720 Can we make the robots

00:18:48.200 not walk like they're

00:18:49.480 sneaking up on you

00:18:50.360 to kill you?

00:18:51.780 Have you seen a robot walk?

00:18:54.660 They only walk like

00:18:55.960 they're sneaking up to you.

00:18:57.080 All right.

00:18:58.640 Let me,

00:18:58.860 let me give you my impression.

00:18:59.900 We'll need to adjust

00:19:02.540 the camera here

00:19:03.160 for full pajama view

00:19:05.040 of my walking.

00:19:07.020 It goes like this.

00:19:09.120 Now,

00:19:10.200 well,

00:19:10.540 let me first do a human

00:19:12.000 and then I'll do the robot.

00:19:13.800 All right.

00:19:13.980 First the human.

00:19:20.780 Human.

00:19:21.600 Not too hard to imitate.

00:19:23.200 Now let me show you

00:19:24.120 the Tesla robot

00:19:25.060 and this,

00:19:25.680 this other OpenAI robot.

00:19:29.900 yeah,

00:19:35.980 sketchy,

00:19:36.580 right?

00:19:36.900 Sketchy as hell.

00:19:41.940 Can you make it look

00:19:43.200 less like it's trying

00:19:44.280 to kill me?

00:19:46.200 I just want it to look

00:19:47.360 like it's not trying

00:19:48.420 to kill me.

00:19:49.840 I get that it probably

00:19:50.740 won't kill me right away.

00:19:52.420 But I don't want it

00:19:53.280 to look like it's trying.

00:19:56.480 You know,

00:19:56.780 did you ever have

00:19:57.680 some kid in your class

00:20:00.140 when you were,

00:20:01.120 let's say,

00:20:01.700 12 years old

00:20:02.440 and they would do

00:20:03.380 the thing like

00:20:03.940 they would act

00:20:04.380 like they're going

00:20:04.800 to hit you?

00:20:05.680 It's like,

00:20:06.360 oh,

00:20:06.800 you know,

00:20:07.100 they would make a motion

00:20:08.600 like they were going

00:20:09.140 to hit you

00:20:09.700 just to mess with you.

00:20:11.480 I feel like these

00:20:12.460 creeping robots

00:20:13.400 are going to be

00:20:13.760 the same thing.

00:20:14.400 It's like,

00:20:15.060 what are you doing?

00:20:16.520 My God,

00:20:17.380 my God,

00:20:17.800 have you turned?

00:20:18.620 Is it happening?

00:20:19.520 Is it Skynet?

00:20:20.880 Oh,

00:20:21.300 no,

00:20:21.460 you're just bringing

00:20:21.980 me a glass of water.

00:20:23.300 Okay,

00:20:23.900 fine.

00:20:24.560 But now,

00:20:25.120 but now you're sneaking

00:20:25.900 up on me,

00:20:26.440 aren't you?

00:20:27.720 Okay,

00:20:28.100 no,

00:20:28.340 you're just vacuuming.

00:20:29.460 All right,

00:20:29.740 carry on.

00:20:30.860 It's going to be

00:20:31.400 very confusing.

00:20:35.040 Robot news.

00:20:37.520 Mike Cernovich

00:20:38.260 is talking about the,

00:20:41.180 well,

00:20:41.400 I'll just read

00:20:41.760 what he said.

00:20:42.260 He posted it today.

00:20:43.720 A lot of tech guys

00:20:44.600 and VCs believe

00:20:45.620 the brain can exist

00:20:46.880 inside the body.

00:20:48.520 That's why they are

00:20:49.360 obsessed with,

00:20:50.180 quote,

00:20:50.440 uploading their consciousness

00:20:51.660 to the cloud.

00:20:53.060 It's midwit Gnosticism.

00:20:54.920 Well,

00:20:57.540 I don't know how to

00:20:58.680 untangle midwit Gnosticism.

00:21:01.080 I only know what

00:21:01.760 one of those words

00:21:02.420 even means.

00:21:03.580 But,

00:21:04.080 I wanted to weigh in

00:21:04.980 with my opinion

00:21:05.660 on this topic.

00:21:08.260 And so I responded,

00:21:09.480 I said,

00:21:09.800 it feels like a

00:21:10.360 definition thing.

00:21:12.660 Oh,

00:21:12.860 and then Mike also

00:21:13.820 went on to say,

00:21:15.300 consciousness is embodied

00:21:16.780 and can't exist

00:21:17.920 without the full

00:21:18.780 human package.

00:21:20.600 I would,

00:21:20.900 you know,

00:21:21.220 I would agree with that.

00:21:22.000 I mean,

00:21:23.060 whatever it is

00:21:23.820 that is you

00:21:24.420 is only you

00:21:26.080 while you're all you.

00:21:28.480 So,

00:21:29.060 yeah,

00:21:29.320 I mean,

00:21:29.580 I agree with the

00:21:30.260 general point.

00:21:31.580 But still,

00:21:32.660 I feel like there's

00:21:33.600 a definitional thing

00:21:34.740 going on

00:21:35.420 that's,

00:21:36.600 you know,

00:21:36.940 maybe on top of

00:21:38.100 or in addition to,

00:21:39.980 you know,

00:21:40.240 the observable obvious part

00:21:41.800 that if it's not you,

00:21:42.740 it's not you.

00:21:45.220 And I said this,

00:21:46.300 I think of a soul

00:21:49.040 as the patterns

00:21:50.940 of thoughts

00:21:51.540 that are unique

00:21:52.240 to you.

00:21:54.140 Your soul

00:21:55.120 is the pattern

00:21:57.120 of thoughts

00:21:57.900 that you've developed

00:21:58.860 over your life

00:21:59.540 that are unique

00:22:00.660 to you.

00:22:02.160 Because nobody

00:22:02.940 thinks your body

00:22:03.640 goes to heaven,

00:22:05.400 right?

00:22:06.640 So,

00:22:07.280 so if you have a,

00:22:08.660 something that lasts

00:22:09.700 beyond you,

00:22:10.720 which is your essence,

00:22:12.260 it would have to be

00:22:12.880 a pattern.

00:22:13.340 A pattern

00:22:15.740 is the only thing

00:22:16.480 that is formless

00:22:18.100 and yet is still you.

00:22:19.780 Because it could go

00:22:20.420 into any kind of container.

00:22:22.720 So,

00:22:23.220 in my opinion,

00:22:25.160 the large language models

00:22:26.440 which have created

00:22:27.640 some pseudo-intelligence

00:22:29.740 by just looking at patterns

00:22:31.000 could do the same thing

00:22:32.380 with an individual.

00:22:34.480 So,

00:22:34.980 if,

00:22:35.320 if the computer,

00:22:37.020 the AI,

00:22:37.620 can look at all the things

00:22:38.800 you've ever written

00:22:39.560 and build a large language model

00:22:41.880 just based on one training

00:22:43.300 on one person,

00:22:44.720 that would effectively

00:22:46.600 be your soul.

00:22:48.000 Because it would be

00:22:48.500 all the patterns

00:22:49.260 of your thought

00:22:50.120 and activity

00:22:50.880 as expressed

00:22:51.780 through the way

00:22:52.220 you write and talk

00:22:53.020 that would be unique to you.

00:22:56.320 Now,

00:22:56.580 would it be 100%?

00:22:57.840 No.

00:22:58.800 But would it get

00:22:59.420 the important things?

00:23:01.040 It might.

00:23:02.240 It might be

00:23:02.800 all the important things

00:23:03.940 that are the patterns

00:23:04.760 of you.

00:23:06.940 For example,

00:23:08.460 one of the patterns

00:23:09.360 I just explained,

00:23:11.020 one of my patterns

00:23:12.000 is I always try

00:23:14.100 to be nice

00:23:14.580 to anybody

00:23:15.240 in person.

00:23:17.020 No exceptions.

00:23:18.260 That's a pattern.

00:23:19.600 Not everybody

00:23:20.260 would do that.

00:23:21.440 That's unique.

00:23:22.300 I mean,

00:23:22.600 not so unique,

00:23:23.760 but it's just one thing

00:23:25.240 that I do

00:23:25.780 that I try not to vary.

00:23:27.300 That's my pattern.

00:23:29.020 So,

00:23:29.500 I say that

00:23:30.160 if you could put

00:23:31.100 your pattern

00:23:31.720 as expressed

00:23:32.500 in your language,

00:23:33.460 if you could capture it

00:23:34.600 in an AI way,

00:23:36.220 that would be

00:23:36.640 very similar

00:23:37.240 to DNA.

00:23:39.300 Because when we

00:23:40.100 think about reproducing,

00:23:41.280 we think about

00:23:41.900 our DNA.

00:23:43.760 Right?

00:23:44.340 And DNA

00:23:44.900 is literally

00:23:45.680 just a pattern.

00:23:47.660 It's a pattern.

00:23:48.920 So,

00:23:49.300 if your DNA

00:23:49.820 gets into your child,

00:23:51.460 you've taken

00:23:52.520 your pattern

00:23:53.100 into them.

00:23:54.080 The same as

00:23:54.940 if I load

00:23:55.600 all my words

00:23:57.100 into an AI,

00:23:58.040 it knows the pattern

00:23:59.040 that is my personality

00:24:00.060 in a similar way.

00:24:01.720 Now,

00:24:02.140 in each of those cases,

00:24:03.800 your pattern

00:24:04.520 gets diluted.

00:24:05.340 If I put my pattern

00:24:07.040 in AI,

00:24:07.740 it's not the only

00:24:08.320 pattern in there.

00:24:09.640 AI will have

00:24:10.240 its own patterns

00:24:11.000 in order just to function.

00:24:12.480 So,

00:24:12.680 there'll be a little

00:24:13.140 pattern,

00:24:14.360 maybe overlap

00:24:16.100 or even conflict.

00:24:18.360 And likewise,

00:24:18.980 if you put your DNA

00:24:19.760 into a child,

00:24:21.820 only half of your DNA

00:24:23.460 gets in there

00:24:24.100 and your spouse

00:24:25.500 is the other half.

00:24:26.720 And then,

00:24:27.800 the child has a child

00:24:28.940 and then you're

00:24:30.120 diluted further.

00:24:31.580 The child has another

00:24:32.360 child diluted further.

00:24:34.180 So,

00:24:34.380 in both AI

00:24:35.060 and in the human world,

00:24:37.420 you know,

00:24:37.620 that thing which is

00:24:38.420 your unique pattern

00:24:39.980 can be put forward

00:24:42.900 but it also evolves

00:24:44.260 after it's done

00:24:45.400 with you.

00:24:46.600 So,

00:24:46.940 your DNA evolves

00:24:47.980 the same way

00:24:48.560 your AI pattern

00:24:49.440 would evolve

00:24:50.020 after you're gone.

00:24:51.920 So,

00:24:52.540 I think that that's

00:24:53.720 in effect a soul

00:24:55.220 because it's the only

00:24:56.760 non-body part of you

00:24:58.180 that is unique

00:24:59.440 and special to you,

00:25:00.480 your patterns.

00:25:01.520 And they can be brought

00:25:02.380 forward after your death.

00:25:03.280 Now,

00:25:04.420 consciousness is different.

00:25:05.940 Consciousness is not a soul.

00:25:08.100 But,

00:25:08.760 that's a definition

00:25:09.520 thing too.

00:25:11.200 So,

00:25:11.740 I think your consciousness

00:25:12.740 as the feedback loop

00:25:14.640 where you're predicting

00:25:16.520 what will happen

00:25:17.360 based on what you do

00:25:18.880 and what other people

00:25:19.580 are doing

00:25:19.900 and then you experience

00:25:21.320 what happens.

00:25:22.680 So,

00:25:22.960 your five senses

00:25:23.760 try to absorb

00:25:25.260 what actually is happening

00:25:26.420 while your brain

00:25:27.520 is predicting

00:25:28.120 what will happen next

00:25:29.220 and then you're

00:25:30.100 comparing it

00:25:30.680 to prediction.

00:25:31.900 So,

00:25:32.140 the observing,

00:25:33.560 predicting,

00:25:34.080 and comparing

00:25:34.700 your observation

00:25:35.540 to predicting,

00:25:36.680 to me,

00:25:37.080 that's just consciousness.

00:25:38.540 That's the whole thing.

00:25:39.620 There's nothing else.

00:25:40.940 Now,

00:25:41.140 that's a definition.

00:25:42.360 It doesn't make me right.

00:25:44.300 Just,

00:25:44.780 those are the definitions

00:25:45.540 I'm working with

00:25:46.420 because it feels right to me.

00:25:48.380 But,

00:25:50.540 suppose your consciousness

00:25:51.940 did not get,

00:25:53.500 get transported

00:25:55.340 into AI.

00:25:56.780 Is that a problem?

00:25:58.780 Suppose you can't

00:25:59.700 take your consciousness

00:26:00.560 into a machine.

00:26:02.200 Well,

00:26:02.400 guess what?

00:26:02.900 You couldn't take

00:26:03.560 your consciousness

00:26:04.160 into your kid either.

00:26:05.840 But,

00:26:06.140 that didn't stop you

00:26:06.740 from having one.

00:26:08.120 You don't put your

00:26:08.980 consciousness in a kid.

00:26:10.660 You might,

00:26:11.300 you know,

00:26:11.940 teach them some things

00:26:13.020 that might become

00:26:13.660 part of their patterns

00:26:14.560 but they kind of get

00:26:15.720 to decide what patterns

00:26:16.720 they keep.

00:26:17.180 You know,

00:26:18.160 you can't really

00:26:18.720 program a kid completely.

00:26:20.700 So,

00:26:21.180 I would say that

00:26:21.780 whether or not

00:26:22.360 your consciousness

00:26:23.100 goes into a,

00:26:24.480 an offspring

00:26:25.080 or into a machine,

00:26:26.820 it's not really

00:26:27.940 your consciousness.

00:26:30.160 Right?

00:26:30.980 It's not really.

00:26:31.860 But,

00:26:32.140 you can certainly

00:26:32.600 teach a machine

00:26:33.540 to do what I described

00:26:35.500 as consciousness.

00:26:36.840 Predict what would happen

00:26:37.900 under the current situation

00:26:40.020 and then compare

00:26:41.560 what your prediction was

00:26:42.640 to what happened.

00:26:44.200 And then stress

00:26:45.120 is usually the difference

00:26:46.820 between what you want

00:26:47.980 to happen

00:26:48.320 and what's happening.

00:26:50.000 That's stress.

00:26:51.240 You could,

00:26:51.600 you could teach a machine

00:26:52.720 to have something

00:26:54.100 like a stress response

00:26:55.400 because their prediction

00:26:57.040 and their observation

00:26:58.100 are not quite matching up.

00:26:59.800 What do Democrats have

00:27:01.200 that's making them

00:27:02.800 so crazy?

00:27:04.280 What they observe

00:27:05.420 is not matching up

00:27:06.740 with what they think

00:27:08.040 they should observe.

00:27:09.300 There's no,

00:27:10.160 there's no correlation

00:27:11.140 between what they predict

00:27:12.440 and what they observe

00:27:13.520 happens.

00:27:14.680 That's not the same

00:27:15.640 with conservatives.

00:27:17.240 Conservatives predict

00:27:18.260 and then they observe

00:27:19.140 they were right.

00:27:20.600 Let me give you an example.

00:27:22.400 What will happen

00:27:23.440 if you cut funding

00:27:24.900 to the police?

00:27:27.920 Democrats are like,

00:27:29.040 wait a minute,

00:27:30.100 why is this not working?

00:27:32.080 Right?

00:27:32.960 Their consciousness

00:27:33.980 is in a point,

00:27:35.080 is in a state of stress

00:27:36.960 because they predict

00:27:38.540 what will happen.

00:27:39.740 It doesn't happen.

00:27:40.940 It happens the opposite

00:27:41.840 of what they predicted

00:27:42.600 and that's stress.

00:27:44.380 And the,

00:27:45.280 you know,

00:27:45.580 there's other forms

00:27:46.400 of stress too.

00:27:47.800 But the conservatives

00:27:49.020 are saying,

00:27:49.720 if you take the police away,

00:27:50.880 crime will go up

00:27:51.640 and there it is.

00:27:54.000 You don't like it

00:27:55.200 and there would be stress

00:27:56.660 if you traveled there,

00:27:57.740 but you don't have any stress

00:27:59.100 about understanding it.

00:28:01.100 That's very different.

00:28:04.700 All right,

00:28:05.400 so I don't think it matters

00:28:06.620 if your consciousness

00:28:07.500 goes with you after death

00:28:09.120 because consciousness

00:28:10.620 was never important

00:28:11.600 in the first place.

00:28:12.420 It was just a little feature

00:28:13.560 of how you act.

00:28:16.440 It's just one feature

00:28:17.260 of your wholeness.

00:28:20.500 And then I would also say

00:28:21.780 that being a believer,

00:28:23.240 I say this a lot,

00:28:24.120 but you can't hear it enough.

00:28:25.380 I'm not a believer,

00:28:26.760 but I think the believers

00:28:29.280 have an advantage in life,

00:28:30.700 a big one actually.

00:28:32.000 And if I had the capacity,

00:28:34.560 if somehow I could do it

00:28:35.940 to be a believer,

00:28:37.360 I would do it

00:28:38.120 because the advantages

00:28:39.380 seem obvious.

00:28:40.380 So that's just a disadvantage

00:28:41.480 I have compared to some of you.

00:28:44.660 All right.

00:28:46.300 How many of you are aware

00:28:47.820 that last night

00:28:48.720 an individual

00:28:49.600 cut off his father's head,

00:28:52.220 put it in a plastic bag,

00:28:53.940 and showed it on YouTube

00:28:55.300 as part of his screed

00:28:58.820 about how he's going to be part

00:29:00.640 of a revolution

00:29:01.280 against the government

00:29:02.620 or something?

00:29:04.400 Now, that stayed on YouTube

00:29:06.860 a long time.

00:29:09.840 A lot longer

00:29:10.900 than the time

00:29:13.200 that YouTube

00:29:13.580 was completely aware

00:29:14.800 of what they had there.

00:29:16.240 So I don't really understand

00:29:17.420 why it stayed on there

00:29:18.260 so long,

00:29:18.920 but I actually looked at it.

00:29:21.060 How many of you

00:29:21.740 looked at it?

00:29:22.860 The video of the young guy

00:29:25.280 holding up his father's head

00:29:26.440 in a bag.

00:29:27.000 Now, did you decide

00:29:29.920 not to look at it

00:29:30.760 because you consciously

00:29:31.820 didn't want that in your head?

00:29:33.520 If you did,

00:29:34.260 that was a good play.

00:29:36.260 Yeah.

00:29:36.820 The smart play

00:29:37.580 is don't look at it

00:29:38.560 because I looked at it

00:29:40.780 and I will never forget it.

00:29:43.820 Yeah.

00:29:44.120 That is permanent.

00:29:46.340 That's permanent damage

00:29:47.740 to my brain.

00:29:49.020 It's damage.

00:29:50.220 It's just damage.

00:29:51.740 There's no other way

00:29:52.600 to put it.

00:29:53.100 It's just damage.

00:29:54.420 Right?

00:29:54.960 I wish I hadn't seen it,

00:29:56.040 but I was so curious.

00:29:58.280 And first,

00:29:58.940 I wasn't exactly sure

00:29:59.940 it was true,

00:30:00.480 but apparently it is.

00:30:01.740 So what did the New York Post

00:30:03.380 say as their headline for it?

00:30:05.520 QAnon-aligned son

00:30:07.160 decapitates federal employee dad

00:30:09.980 shows off traitor's head

00:30:11.780 and, you know,

00:30:12.420 he called it a traitor,

00:30:13.320 it's in quotes,

00:30:14.300 a head in a sick YouTube video.

00:30:16.860 QAnon-aligned?

00:30:18.800 QAnon-aligned.

00:30:20.960 Do you think they're going

00:30:21.940 to try to sell this

00:30:22.800 as a Trump supporter?

00:30:24.100 Of course they are

00:30:26.120 because he's anti-Biden.

00:30:28.280 But you know,

00:30:28.860 his social media

00:30:29.640 showed he was anti-Trump.

00:30:32.020 He's anti-Trump.

00:30:33.740 He's anti-Trump,

00:30:35.260 and the New York Post

00:30:36.120 decided that their headline

00:30:37.560 would be that

00:30:38.540 he's QAnon-aligned.

00:30:40.680 And by the way,

00:30:41.500 I saw no evidence

00:30:42.520 that he's QAnon-aligned.

00:30:45.080 I didn't see that.

00:30:46.420 I didn't see it in the story.

00:30:48.060 Where did they get

00:30:48.820 QAnon-aligned?

00:30:50.380 And are they assholes?

00:30:51.420 You know,

00:30:52.840 maybe he quoted it someplace.

00:30:56.820 So, just like any other story,

00:30:59.340 it's a schizophrenic guy.

00:31:01.440 It's just a crazy guy.

00:31:02.920 But the Democrats

00:31:04.220 are going to try

00:31:04.740 to make him look like

00:31:05.520 a crazy Trump supporter.

00:31:07.820 And surely they will push

00:31:10.100 the Trump supporters

00:31:11.600 are dangerous revolutionaries,

00:31:13.300 insurrectionists,

00:31:14.120 and here's another one.

00:31:15.560 But meanwhile,

00:31:16.440 he's just a crazy guy

00:31:17.420 who didn't like Trump,

00:31:18.740 and he didn't like Biden.

00:31:19.760 And apparently he didn't care

00:31:21.560 for his father that much.

00:31:23.860 So, another place not to go

00:31:25.700 would be that guy's house.

00:31:30.780 All right.

00:31:36.080 My second theme is

00:31:37.440 things Democrats

00:31:38.340 are not allowed to know.

00:31:41.180 Things Democrats

00:31:42.180 are not allowed to know.

00:31:43.580 They could know them.

00:31:44.860 All they'd have to do

00:31:45.660 is be exposed

00:31:46.280 to the information.

00:31:47.000 But they're sort of not allowed.

00:31:49.300 So, this is our secret

00:31:50.300 little club

00:31:50.960 where we know things

00:31:52.860 that half the country

00:31:54.080 will never know.

00:31:56.280 Here's the first example.

00:31:57.700 Florida will no longer

00:31:58.840 allow trans people

00:31:59.660 to change the sex

00:32:00.560 on their driver's license

00:32:01.640 to match their gender identity.

00:32:05.800 So,

00:32:07.220 Democrats are not allowed

00:32:10.060 to know

00:32:10.520 that your sex

00:32:12.500 can be identified

00:32:13.520 with some clarity.

00:32:14.560 I think it's

00:32:17.460 the confusion

00:32:18.880 of gender

00:32:19.500 and sex.

00:32:20.580 I agree

00:32:21.180 that people's

00:32:22.460 sexual preferences

00:32:23.880 or even how

00:32:25.120 they think of themselves

00:32:25.960 could be all over the place.

00:32:27.520 So, that's a continuum.

00:32:29.160 So, if somebody has,

00:32:30.100 you know,

00:32:30.300 male parts

00:32:30.900 but their brain

00:32:31.680 says they're female,

00:32:33.440 that's a real thing.

00:32:35.060 That exists.

00:32:36.420 But,

00:32:36.760 certainly,

00:32:37.680 their reproductive organs

00:32:39.240 are either good

00:32:41.560 for one thing

00:32:42.160 or the other

00:32:42.660 or their very rare case

00:32:44.900 where they're not

00:32:46.280 a complete,

00:32:47.780 not a complete package

00:32:49.340 of either.

00:32:49.980 But,

00:32:50.180 that's the exception.

00:32:52.500 So,

00:32:52.900 that's the first thing.

00:32:54.880 The AP,

00:32:56.100 Associated Press,

00:32:57.060 is touting

00:32:58.360 the great economy.

00:33:00.240 Are you surprised

00:33:01.120 that a Democrat-oriented

00:33:02.800 media entity,

00:33:05.380 the AP,

00:33:06.700 most people say

00:33:07.520 it follows

00:33:08.260 a Democrat line,

00:33:10.240 are you surprised

00:33:10.840 that they're telling you

00:33:11.560 the economy is great

00:33:12.520 and you just don't

00:33:13.140 understand it?

00:33:15.440 Oh,

00:33:16.240 exactly like

00:33:17.140 one month ago

00:33:18.020 I was telling

00:33:18.780 my stepdaughter,

00:33:20.220 you know,

00:33:20.440 in the next year

00:33:21.100 the news is going

00:33:21.900 to tell you

00:33:22.260 the economy is great

00:33:23.260 whether it is or not.

00:33:24.940 So,

00:33:25.140 this would be

00:33:25.400 a good time

00:33:25.780 to buy stock,

00:33:27.080 not because

00:33:27.740 the stocks are good

00:33:28.600 but because

00:33:29.900 the government's

00:33:30.640 going to artificially

00:33:31.360 drive up the price

00:33:32.380 as part of the

00:33:33.700 election year.

00:33:36.360 You know,

00:33:36.940 I don't think

00:33:37.520 this is just

00:33:38.040 a Democrat thing,

00:33:39.060 right?

00:33:39.260 This is sort of

00:33:40.060 the party in power

00:33:41.240 does this

00:33:41.700 if they can

00:33:42.640 get away with it.

00:33:43.900 So,

00:33:44.240 let me ask

00:33:44.740 what do you think

00:33:45.540 was the evidence

00:33:46.240 for this strong economy?

00:33:47.780 Well,

00:33:48.300 some good things here.

00:33:49.900 The consumer price

00:33:51.500 index rose.

00:33:52.680 It's actually

00:33:53.160 at a recent high.

00:33:56.340 So,

00:33:56.640 the consumers

00:33:57.140 have a lot

00:33:57.680 of confidence.

00:33:59.300 So,

00:33:59.780 let me

00:34:00.320 explain this to you.

00:34:03.180 The media

00:34:04.140 is reporting

00:34:05.880 that the citizens

00:34:07.100 have higher confidence

00:34:09.100 in the economy

00:34:09.900 now.

00:34:10.700 Where'd that

00:34:11.280 come from?

00:34:12.900 It came from

00:34:13.980 the media

00:34:15.460 telling them

00:34:16.980 to have more

00:34:17.560 confidence.

00:34:18.900 So,

00:34:19.420 then the media

00:34:19.940 told them

00:34:20.440 to have more

00:34:20.940 confidence

00:34:21.420 and then they

00:34:22.840 did a poll

00:34:23.540 to find out

00:34:24.640 if their brainwashing

00:34:25.720 worked

00:34:26.200 and then they

00:34:27.200 reported the poll

00:34:28.340 as news.

00:34:30.080 It's a wrap-up

00:34:31.060 sphere.

00:34:32.800 Do you understand

00:34:33.560 the pattern now?

00:34:34.240 is that you

00:34:35.820 create the news

00:34:36.840 and then you

00:34:38.400 report it

00:34:39.120 as it affects

00:34:39.780 someone else

00:34:40.500 and then you

00:34:41.780 report that

00:34:42.380 the effect

00:34:42.960 on someone else

00:34:43.680 is the news

00:34:44.560 but in fact

00:34:45.740 you created

00:34:46.440 that news

00:34:47.040 and then you

00:34:47.980 reported on it

00:34:48.820 and you hope

00:34:49.700 nobody caught it.

00:34:50.880 It's a good trick.

00:34:52.500 How about

00:34:52.900 the GDP?

00:34:54.380 GDP is up

00:34:55.220 fairly solidly.

00:34:57.600 Year to year

00:34:58.560 3.3

00:34:59.720 or something.

00:35:00.480 You know,

00:35:00.620 nice solid

00:35:02.320 non-inflationary

00:35:04.360 growth.

00:35:04.980 That's a good

00:35:05.600 little target

00:35:06.140 area right there.

00:35:07.340 Do you think

00:35:07.800 that they mention

00:35:08.720 the effect

00:35:09.820 of inflation

00:35:10.560 on the GDP?

00:35:12.840 Because the GDP

00:35:13.760 is measured

00:35:14.400 in dollars.

00:35:15.960 So,

00:35:16.360 if I'm buying

00:35:17.160 some gas

00:35:17.760 for $3

00:35:18.280 a gallon

00:35:19.060 that's a lower

00:35:21.080 GDP

00:35:21.540 than if I bought

00:35:22.540 it for $5

00:35:23.140 a gallon.

00:35:24.140 But let me ask you,

00:35:25.360 do you want

00:35:25.760 to live in a country

00:35:26.460 where you buy

00:35:27.040 gas for $3

00:35:27.860 a gallon?

00:35:29.600 That would be

00:35:30.060 a low GDP

00:35:30.820 or where you

00:35:32.400 buy it for $5

00:35:33.240 a gallon

00:35:33.920 and your GDP

00:35:35.560 looks great.

00:35:36.900 Not you.

00:35:37.880 I mean,

00:35:38.260 it's the people

00:35:38.740 you gave the money

00:35:39.420 to.

00:35:40.280 But it's all

00:35:41.080 in the GDP.

00:35:42.980 So,

00:35:43.740 if you want

00:35:44.340 the economy

00:35:44.840 to look good,

00:35:47.080 you say things

00:35:47.960 like,

00:35:48.800 let's compare

00:35:49.480 our numbers

00:35:50.020 today to the

00:35:50.780 pandemic.

00:35:52.140 Do you think

00:35:52.880 they do that?

00:35:53.800 Of course they do.

00:35:55.240 Of course they compare

00:35:56.180 it to the pandemic.

00:35:57.640 Should you compare

00:35:58.500 anything

00:35:59.060 in the economy

00:36:00.440 should anything

00:36:01.780 ever be compared

00:36:02.660 to the pandemic?

00:36:04.080 No.

00:36:05.340 Under no

00:36:06.180 circumstance

00:36:06.740 should anything

00:36:08.240 in the future

00:36:09.000 or the current

00:36:09.860 ever be compared

00:36:11.300 to anything

00:36:12.400 in the pandemic

00:36:13.880 because that

00:36:14.660 would be misleading,

00:36:15.780 not informative.

00:36:18.260 Right?

00:36:18.580 So that's,

00:36:19.300 if you want

00:36:19.560 to be misleading,

00:36:20.420 you compare numbers

00:36:21.200 to the pandemic

00:36:21.860 and they are.

00:36:23.300 Then you want

00:36:23.880 to brainwash

00:36:24.540 consumers into

00:36:25.440 thinking things

00:36:26.080 are great

00:36:26.540 and then pull

00:36:27.140 them to find out

00:36:27.840 if it worked

00:36:28.340 and then report

00:36:28.960 on it,

00:36:29.420 which they did.

00:36:30.700 And then you want

00:36:31.780 to focus on the GDP

00:36:32.780 but never mention

00:36:33.840 the inflation component

00:36:35.080 because it's going

00:36:36.540 to look really good

00:36:37.320 if you leave

00:36:37.740 that inflation

00:36:38.320 in there.

00:36:41.020 But then you'd

00:36:41.820 also say

00:36:42.300 that the inflation

00:36:43.060 rate of increase

00:36:44.040 is decreasing,

00:36:45.220 which might be true,

00:36:47.120 but it doesn't tell

00:36:48.120 you about the baseline

00:36:49.200 cumulative inflation

00:36:51.100 that had been

00:36:53.180 applied up to that point

00:36:55.220 because that baseline

00:36:56.500 goes forward forever.

00:36:58.640 It doesn't matter

00:36:59.240 so much

00:37:00.360 if it's not growing

00:37:01.300 quickly as well.

00:37:03.720 Now suppose

00:37:04.240 you wanted to tell

00:37:04.880 the opposite story

00:37:06.020 but you also wanted

00:37:07.400 to use real data

00:37:08.420 because the AP

00:37:10.080 and others,

00:37:11.280 they use real data.

00:37:12.560 It's just that

00:37:13.240 if you don't know

00:37:13.840 how to understand data,

00:37:15.160 you could be misled easily.

00:37:17.120 So if you wanted

00:37:17.720 to tell the opposite story

00:37:18.780 with the same data,

00:37:20.700 you'd say

00:37:21.080 the national debt

00:37:22.400 is so high

00:37:23.160 that it will kill us all,

00:37:24.260 which is true,

00:37:26.260 I think.

00:37:27.460 I mean,

00:37:27.740 I don't know

00:37:28.100 how we could pay it off.

00:37:29.380 I have no idea.

00:37:30.500 I have no idea

00:37:31.380 how we could survive

00:37:32.580 the national debt.

00:37:33.500 None.

00:37:34.460 Not a little bit of idea.

00:37:37.440 How about

00:37:37.960 housing affordability?

00:37:40.300 Why is it a great economy

00:37:41.520 if young people

00:37:42.240 can't buy a house

00:37:43.020 and don't look

00:37:43.540 like they ever could?

00:37:45.240 How about

00:37:45.900 the cost of food?

00:37:48.700 Just go to a grocery store

00:37:50.360 and see how you feel

00:37:51.100 about your economy.

00:37:52.660 Most of you have,

00:37:53.680 of course.

00:37:54.260 How about

00:37:54.960 real wage growth?

00:37:56.680 If you take the inflation

00:37:57.760 out of the wage growth,

00:37:58.740 how does it look?

00:38:00.240 Not as good.

00:38:02.720 How about

00:38:03.260 the inability

00:38:04.120 of any young person

00:38:05.160 to afford marriage

00:38:06.240 and kids

00:38:06.900 and therefore

00:38:07.880 our population

00:38:09.820 will decline

00:38:10.700 to the point

00:38:11.660 where the entire country

00:38:12.600 is destroyed

00:38:13.280 because we don't

00:38:14.820 create a system,

00:38:16.320 we don't have a system

00:38:17.220 where a young person

00:38:18.500 can simply work hard

00:38:19.600 and get ahead

00:38:20.180 and have a family

00:38:20.840 and have kids.

00:38:21.340 These are devastating facts

00:38:25.420 about our economy.

00:38:27.320 In the AP reports,

00:38:29.040 hey, we told

00:38:29.520 everybody that things

00:38:31.200 are good

00:38:31.520 and they believed us.

00:38:33.760 That's your news.

00:38:35.880 That's news.

00:38:37.720 The fact that this

00:38:38.740 is considered news

00:38:39.680 is just mind-boggling.

00:38:41.800 All right.

00:38:43.220 Here's another one,

00:38:44.220 things that,

00:38:45.400 and by the way,

00:38:45.920 do you think

00:38:46.300 the Democrats

00:38:46.940 could do

00:38:47.420 what I just did?

00:38:49.840 Now,

00:38:50.280 most people can't

00:38:51.400 because if you don't

00:38:52.120 have a background

00:38:52.700 in business

00:38:53.360 or economics,

00:38:54.540 it's not obvious.

00:38:55.700 None of this

00:38:56.100 is obvious.

00:38:57.360 Well,

00:38:57.600 a little bit

00:38:57.980 is obvious.

00:38:58.900 But you'd really

00:39:00.040 have to have

00:39:00.460 some depth

00:39:01.180 in a little bit

00:39:02.140 of this stuff

00:39:02.580 to even know

00:39:03.000 what they're doing

00:39:03.460 to you.

00:39:05.440 The rabbit hole

00:39:06.400 account on X

00:39:07.420 is talking about

00:39:08.960 a survey

00:39:09.820 from somebody

00:39:12.200 called

00:39:12.680 Resume Builder

00:39:14.280 and Polish.

00:39:15.840 And they did

00:39:16.260 a survey

00:39:16.680 of whether

00:39:18.680 people think

00:39:19.880 that reverse

00:39:20.620 discrimination

00:39:21.200 exists.

00:39:22.460 Now,

00:39:22.620 that would be

00:39:23.220 discrimination

00:39:24.320 against white

00:39:25.400 males especially.

00:39:27.900 But from a

00:39:28.680 2022 survey,

00:39:30.300 it said that

00:39:30.740 52% of hiring

00:39:32.080 managers believe

00:39:32.940 their company

00:39:34.060 practices

00:39:34.740 reverse discrimination

00:39:35.940 in hiring.

00:39:37.640 More than half

00:39:38.960 of all hiring

00:39:40.980 managers

00:39:41.500 say their company

00:39:43.260 discriminates.

00:39:44.280 And I guess

00:39:47.580 we're just

00:39:47.920 going to take

00:39:48.300 a pause

00:39:48.660 and talk

00:39:49.040 about the

00:39:49.580 mysterious

00:39:50.340 glitch

00:39:50.880 in the

00:39:51.300 attack

00:39:51.680 that always

00:39:52.040 happens

00:39:52.240 in 34

00:39:52.840 minutes.

00:39:55.840 Back to me.

00:39:57.260 Bring your

00:39:57.680 attention back

00:39:58.320 to me.

00:40:00.080 It's all

00:40:00.680 about me.

00:40:01.900 All right.

00:40:03.800 Do you believe

00:40:04.600 that?

00:40:04.940 Do you believe

00:40:05.360 that 52%

00:40:06.600 of hiring

00:40:07.060 managers

00:40:07.540 say that

00:40:09.040 they practice

00:40:09.800 discrimination

00:40:10.720 because reverse

00:40:11.600 discrimination

00:40:12.100 is just

00:40:12.700 discrimination?

00:40:13.120 Does that

00:40:14.460 seem high

00:40:14.940 or low?

00:40:17.500 Does that

00:40:18.100 seem high?

00:40:19.660 No, it

00:40:20.400 is laughably

00:40:21.440 low.

00:40:22.760 Do you know

00:40:23.160 what's wrong

00:40:23.540 with the

00:40:23.840 number?

00:40:24.080 Is it

00:40:25.800 obvious to

00:40:26.360 you without

00:40:27.720 any other

00:40:28.440 information?

00:40:29.500 Is it obvious

00:40:30.140 to you what's

00:40:30.660 wrong with

00:40:30.980 the number?

00:40:31.340 what does

00:40:33.840 52%

00:40:34.740 of hiring

00:40:35.720 managers

00:40:36.180 sound like

00:40:36.760 to you?

00:40:39.220 To me,

00:40:40.020 it sounds

00:40:40.340 like the

00:40:40.800 exact number

00:40:41.700 of white

00:40:42.420 male hiring

00:40:43.340 managers.

00:40:45.280 Is that

00:40:45.960 a coincidence?

00:40:48.300 Don't you

00:40:49.000 think that the

00:40:49.520 number of

00:40:49.960 white men

00:40:50.780 who are

00:40:51.120 hiring managers

00:40:51.920 is around

00:40:52.800 52%?

00:40:53.640 So when

00:40:55.040 you ask

00:40:55.380 the white

00:40:55.780 men,

00:40:56.340 what did

00:40:56.720 they say?

00:40:57.560 Of course

00:40:58.060 it exists.

00:40:59.060 It's all

00:40:59.400 over the

00:40:59.720 place.

00:41:00.520 I've been

00:41:00.860 a victim

00:41:01.180 of it.

00:41:02.100 When they

00:41:02.640 ask the

00:41:03.000 black woman,

00:41:04.420 do you

00:41:04.700 do any

00:41:05.020 reverse

00:41:05.460 discrimination?

00:41:06.260 What's

00:41:06.440 she going

00:41:06.700 to say?

00:41:07.720 And again,

00:41:08.280 I'm not

00:41:08.500 saying anything

00:41:10.020 about black

00:41:11.020 people or

00:41:11.560 women.

00:41:12.640 I'm talking

00:41:13.260 about human

00:41:13.780 beings.

00:41:14.840 If you're

00:41:15.440 just a human

00:41:16.040 being, but

00:41:17.200 you're in

00:41:17.460 this situation

00:41:18.100 and you're

00:41:18.760 a black

00:41:19.100 woman, what

00:41:20.040 do you say

00:41:20.400 about reverse

00:41:21.000 discrimination?

00:41:21.480 No, I

00:41:23.060 got my

00:41:23.460 job because

00:41:24.200 I'm

00:41:24.360 qualified.

00:41:26.240 And you

00:41:26.840 would believe

00:41:27.240 it.

00:41:27.880 And it

00:41:28.140 might be

00:41:28.400 true in

00:41:29.040 your specific

00:41:29.580 case.

00:41:31.020 No, you

00:41:31.780 cannot ask

00:41:32.620 people who

00:41:33.500 are hiring

00:41:33.940 managers if

00:41:34.840 they're

00:41:35.060 discriminating

00:41:35.860 against other

00:41:36.920 people.

00:41:37.840 The white

00:41:38.240 people, the

00:41:38.840 white men,

00:41:39.580 will say, of

00:41:40.040 course, it's

00:41:40.700 widespread, it's

00:41:41.360 everywhere.

00:41:42.320 The black

00:41:42.840 women will

00:41:43.300 say, I

00:41:43.700 don't know

00:41:43.900 what you're

00:41:44.120 talking about.

00:41:44.640 I got my

00:41:45.060 job the

00:41:45.540 regular way,

00:41:46.600 and when I

00:41:47.060 hire people, I

00:41:47.820 only look at

00:41:48.360 their qualifications,

00:41:49.360 especially if

00:41:49.920 they're black.

00:41:51.480 that's what

00:41:52.580 they'll tell

00:41:52.900 you.

00:41:53.400 And they

00:41:53.920 will be

00:41:54.440 completely

00:41:55.460 blind to

00:41:57.580 what the

00:41:58.040 52% of

00:41:59.100 probably white

00:41:59.900 men are

00:42:00.500 telling them

00:42:01.020 is everywhere

00:42:02.040 all the

00:42:02.800 time.

00:42:04.920 All right.

00:42:06.440 So that's

00:42:07.340 something that

00:42:07.980 Democrats don't

00:42:09.060 see.

00:42:11.880 70% said

00:42:13.180 they think

00:42:13.600 their company

00:42:14.000 has DEI

00:42:14.660 initiatives just

00:42:15.400 for appearance.

00:42:18.140 70%.

00:42:18.660 That seems

00:42:20.700 a little low

00:42:21.280 too, doesn't

00:42:22.140 it?

00:42:23.880 You don't

00:42:24.540 think 100%

00:42:25.460 of the people

00:42:25.960 know it's

00:42:26.360 for appearance?

00:42:28.300 No, they

00:42:28.920 do.

00:42:29.400 100%

00:42:30.040 know.

00:42:30.700 Now, by

00:42:31.080 appearance, I

00:42:32.540 say that that

00:42:33.240 also has an

00:42:33.820 economic value,

00:42:34.840 right?

00:42:35.440 When Mark

00:42:36.480 Cuban talks

00:42:37.140 about DEI,

00:42:38.300 it's for

00:42:39.120 appearance, but

00:42:40.480 it also has a

00:42:41.220 functional business

00:42:42.160 purpose, which

00:42:43.400 is that if your

00:42:44.300 company looks

00:42:44.980 good to your

00:42:46.280 customers and to

00:42:47.160 your employees,

00:42:47.740 well, you're

00:42:48.640 in better

00:42:48.900 shape.

00:42:49.920 So looking

00:42:50.480 good is

00:42:50.880 actually important

00:42:51.580 as a function.

00:42:55.100 All right.

00:42:55.820 Rasmussen

00:42:56.260 reports.

00:42:58.340 They asked

00:42:59.080 Democrats and

00:42:59.980 Republicans and

00:43:00.900 independents whether

00:43:02.280 they believe most

00:43:03.300 experts were right

00:43:04.200 about COVID in

00:43:05.140 the pandemic.

00:43:08.340 73% of

00:43:09.720 Democrats believe

00:43:11.120 that most

00:43:11.620 experts were

00:43:12.440 right about

00:43:12.980 COVID-19.

00:43:13.820 Democrats

00:43:15.820 have been

00:43:19.500 watching the

00:43:20.200 news for

00:43:20.820 three years

00:43:21.560 and 73%

00:43:23.880 of them have

00:43:24.580 concluded that

00:43:26.120 most experts

00:43:27.160 were right

00:43:27.880 about the

00:43:28.380 COVID pandemic.

00:43:31.560 What?

00:43:33.200 No, they're

00:43:34.260 not dumb.

00:43:35.340 No, no,

00:43:36.520 don't say

00:43:36.960 that.

00:43:37.720 This is not

00:43:38.400 a story about

00:43:39.380 Republicans be

00:43:40.880 smart, Democrats

00:43:42.060 be dumb.

00:43:43.120 If you think

00:43:43.880 I'm saying

00:43:44.280 that, I'm

00:43:44.980 not saying

00:43:45.580 that.

00:43:46.420 No, this

00:43:46.740 is a media

00:43:47.300 effect.

00:43:48.540 This is purely

00:43:49.320 a media

00:43:49.720 effect.

00:43:50.420 There's no

00:43:50.840 IQ difference,

00:43:52.840 not at this

00:43:54.160 level anyway.

00:43:55.080 I mean, the

00:43:55.360 IQ, if there

00:43:56.080 is one, I

00:43:56.560 don't think

00:43:56.900 there is, but

00:43:57.720 if there is

00:43:58.100 one, it

00:43:59.920 doesn't explain

00:44:00.480 this.

00:44:01.260 This is a

00:44:01.760 media creature.

00:44:02.540 But 65%

00:44:05.820 of Republicans

00:44:06.920 don't trust

00:44:09.980 the experts,

00:44:10.680 don't think

00:44:11.040 they got it

00:44:11.420 right.

00:44:12.120 And the

00:44:12.720 unaffiliated

00:44:13.380 people, the

00:44:14.040 so-called

00:44:14.480 independents that

00:44:15.340 are not really

00:44:15.880 independent, 44%

00:44:17.860 of them think

00:44:18.660 the experts got

00:44:19.940 it mostly wrong

00:44:20.620 on COVID.

00:44:22.640 So isn't

00:44:25.360 this a

00:44:25.720 gigantic blind

00:44:27.540 spot for

00:44:28.040 Democrats,

00:44:29.240 that they

00:44:29.920 think the

00:44:30.340 experts in

00:44:31.300 COVID are

00:44:32.540 got it mostly

00:44:33.460 right.

00:44:34.760 COVID, of

00:44:35.780 all things.

00:44:37.640 Because if

00:44:38.300 they believe

00:44:38.720 that the

00:44:39.000 experts got

00:44:39.540 it mostly

00:44:40.100 right in

00:44:40.540 the pandemic,

00:44:42.040 wouldn't they

00:44:42.580 also be

00:44:43.500 likely to

00:44:44.040 believe the

00:44:44.400 experts the

00:44:45.100 next time

00:44:45.620 they say

00:44:45.980 something,

00:44:46.860 such as

00:44:47.900 climate change?

00:44:49.680 This is

00:44:50.320 really dangerous

00:44:51.140 to trust

00:44:52.340 experts at

00:44:53.100 that level.

00:44:54.240 Really

00:44:54.780 dangerous for

00:44:55.460 the country.

00:44:56.760 Not that the

00:44:57.700 experts are

00:44:58.200 always wrong,

00:44:58.840 but that

00:44:59.580 level of

00:45:00.120 trust is

00:45:00.780 just a

00:45:01.660 red

00:45:02.160 light going

00:45:04.340 beep,

00:45:04.780 beep,

00:45:05.160 beep,

00:45:05.420 too much

00:45:05.960 trust.

00:45:08.520 Speaking of

00:45:09.260 trust,

00:45:10.220 Turkey's

00:45:10.880 leader

00:45:11.400 Erdogan,

00:45:13.200 and I

00:45:13.520 like

00:45:14.000 pronouncing

00:45:15.820 his name

00:45:16.300 correctly,

00:45:17.120 because it

00:45:17.700 makes me

00:45:18.040 sound like

00:45:18.480 I know

00:45:18.760 more than

00:45:19.100 I do.

00:45:20.720 Yes,

00:45:21.680 Erdogan,

00:45:22.440 who recently

00:45:23.100 visited

00:45:23.840 Qatar,

00:45:25.820 because you

00:45:26.220 call it

00:45:26.620 Qatar,

00:45:28.160 or

00:45:28.360 Qatar or

00:45:29.340 something.

00:45:30.040 No,

00:45:30.840 and you

00:45:31.140 call him

00:45:32.260 Erdogan,

00:45:33.400 because it's

00:45:33.800 spelled that

00:45:34.160 way.

00:45:34.640 No,

00:45:34.980 it's Erdogan

00:45:35.880 went to

00:45:36.360 Qatar.

00:45:37.720 So that's

00:45:38.180 how you

00:45:38.420 say it.

00:45:42.420 Anyway,

00:45:43.520 so Erdogan

00:45:45.200 is helping

00:45:45.720 to set up

00:45:46.300 a political

00:45:46.840 party in

00:45:47.520 Germany.

00:45:48.180 Wait,

00:45:48.460 what?

00:45:49.360 The leader

00:45:50.020 of Turkey

00:45:50.760 is helping

00:45:52.240 to set up

00:45:52.760 a political

00:45:53.560 party in

00:45:55.400 Germany.

00:45:55.720 Germany.

00:45:57.140 Hmm,

00:45:57.680 what's

00:45:58.140 going on?

00:45:59.280 Well,

00:46:00.960 apparently

00:46:01.540 so many

00:46:02.220 Muslims

00:46:02.660 have

00:46:03.100 immigrated

00:46:03.580 to

00:46:03.840 Germany

00:46:04.280 that

00:46:05.000 Erdogan

00:46:05.500 wants them

00:46:06.060 to form

00:46:07.700 a political

00:46:08.240 party to

00:46:09.060 be more

00:46:09.400 of a

00:46:09.640 pro-Muslim

00:46:10.420 party in

00:46:11.440 Germany.

00:46:14.220 And as

00:46:15.160 others have

00:46:15.720 pointed out,

00:46:17.280 do you

00:46:17.660 see it

00:46:18.080 yet?

00:46:20.500 You see

00:46:21.500 how this

00:46:21.840 migration works

00:46:22.740 out?

00:46:23.980 You bring

00:46:24.780 in enough

00:46:25.200 people,

00:46:25.520 they create

00:46:26.400 a political

00:46:26.820 party.

00:46:27.900 Now,

00:46:28.180 if this

00:46:28.440 political

00:46:28.800 party is

00:46:29.320 big enough,

00:46:30.820 presumably,

00:46:32.180 it could be

00:46:32.960 a kingmaker.

00:46:34.220 In other

00:46:34.580 words,

00:46:35.020 it could

00:46:35.320 decide which

00:46:35.900 of the

00:46:36.180 existing

00:46:36.600 parties get

00:46:37.820 enough to

00:46:38.320 put them

00:46:38.640 over the

00:46:39.000 top and

00:46:39.400 become the

00:46:39.840 leader.

00:46:40.540 They don't

00:46:41.080 have enough

00:46:41.460 to be

00:46:41.880 the leader,

00:46:43.440 but maybe

00:46:44.060 in an

00:46:44.460 Israel-like

00:46:45.340 fashion,

00:46:46.500 they could

00:46:46.840 be the

00:46:47.160 kingmakers

00:46:47.680 if they

00:46:48.020 have enough

00:46:48.340 people,

00:46:48.760 and they

00:46:49.060 might.

00:46:50.020 And if

00:46:50.340 Erdogan

00:46:50.740 has his

00:46:51.140 way,

00:46:52.420 Germany

00:46:53.620 will go

00:46:54.240 very pro-Muslim,

00:46:55.520 maybe open

00:46:56.520 up their

00:46:56.860 immigration

00:46:57.300 further,

00:46:58.200 and become

00:46:59.400 a Muslim

00:46:59.820 country over

00:47:00.420 time.

00:47:02.680 Looks like

00:47:03.400 that's going

00:47:03.760 to happen,

00:47:04.160 actually.

00:47:05.080 Mike

00:47:05.540 Benz,

00:47:06.040 who's just

00:47:06.960 invaluable

00:47:07.480 lately in

00:47:08.440 explaining how

00:47:09.220 the real

00:47:09.680 world works,

00:47:10.440 especially the

00:47:11.140 blob, as he

00:47:12.260 calls it,

00:47:13.160 the Democrats

00:47:14.300 and sometimes

00:47:15.640 Republicans and

00:47:16.600 the intel

00:47:16.980 community and

00:47:18.160 all that.

00:47:19.260 And if you

00:47:19.780 don't know

00:47:20.200 what a

00:47:20.540 color revolution

00:47:21.400 is, if

00:47:22.940 you hear me

00:47:23.380 say color

00:47:24.040 revolution and

00:47:25.600 you don't

00:47:25.900 know what

00:47:26.160 it is,

00:47:27.260 you need

00:47:28.160 to, because

00:47:28.920 it's happening

00:47:29.380 here.

00:47:30.220 So a

00:47:30.440 color revolution

00:47:31.180 is the

00:47:31.920 set of

00:47:32.420 things that

00:47:32.960 our

00:47:33.240 intelligence

00:47:33.680 people do

00:47:34.320 to overthrow

00:47:35.060 a foreign

00:47:35.840 country, which

00:47:37.100 we apparently

00:47:37.740 have perfected,

00:47:39.540 and the

00:47:40.160 general way

00:47:41.420 of it is

00:47:42.020 you create

00:47:42.420 all these

00:47:42.800 fake, what

00:47:44.180 look like

00:47:44.660 private entities,

00:47:46.000 and then you

00:47:46.840 have them all

00:47:47.380 protest and do

00:47:48.380 their thing and

00:47:49.100 influence, and

00:47:50.600 it looks like

00:47:51.300 it's coming

00:47:51.740 from the

00:47:52.160 people, and

00:47:54.480 the people are

00:47:55.260 involved, but

00:47:56.060 the people are

00:47:56.620 being influenced

00:47:57.220 by the

00:47:57.560 organizations, and

00:47:58.460 the organizations

00:47:59.080 are set up by

00:47:59.960 sometimes foreign

00:48:01.480 intelligence.

00:48:02.980 But that's

00:48:03.780 exactly what is

00:48:04.640 happening in

00:48:05.260 this country to

00:48:06.940 take down the

00:48:08.340 MAGA side of

00:48:10.000 politics.

00:48:11.240 In other words,

00:48:11.980 these fake

00:48:12.780 protests, the

00:48:14.120 BLMs, the

00:48:15.140 Antifas, and

00:48:16.840 then the fake

00:48:17.760 organizations that

00:48:18.800 support the

00:48:19.320 Democrats, like

00:48:20.040 the ADL, the

00:48:21.160 Southern Poverty

00:48:22.580 Law Center, and

00:48:23.580 the fact-checkers

00:48:24.640 that are not real

00:48:25.160 fact-checkers, and

00:48:26.700 the media, the

00:48:27.800 Democrat-leaning

00:48:29.020 media that's not

00:48:29.940 real media.

00:48:31.320 So somebody, or

00:48:33.740 it's just a big

00:48:34.840 coincidence, we

00:48:37.020 have a situation in

00:48:38.060 America that looks

00:48:38.840 identical to what

00:48:40.760 it would look like

00:48:41.680 if an intelligence

00:48:42.800 organization, like

00:48:44.200 an American one,

00:48:45.400 was actively

00:48:46.200 overthrowing the

00:48:47.040 country for

00:48:48.460 something, one

00:48:50.540 side or the

00:48:51.020 other.

00:48:53.940 So do we have a

00:48:55.600 country that has a

00:48:56.820 government that

00:48:57.340 would do such

00:48:58.040 things?

00:48:59.040 Well, I don't

00:48:59.460 know.

00:48:59.940 Let's look at the

00:49:00.580 case of the

00:49:01.160 mysterious January

00:49:02.040 6th pipe bomb.

00:49:03.860 By the way,

00:49:04.500 Democrats don't know

00:49:05.360 that there's a

00:49:05.880 color revolution and

00:49:06.860 that they're in it.

00:49:08.400 Republicans kind of

00:49:09.640 do.

00:49:10.500 It's another blind

00:49:11.320 spot they have.

00:49:12.500 How about that

00:49:12.960 January 6th pipe

00:49:13.780 bomb?

00:49:14.020 The Democrats

00:49:14.540 think that somebody

00:49:16.260 associated with the

00:49:17.320 January 6th protests

00:49:18.600 left some pipe bombs,

00:49:20.060 which is further

00:49:20.600 evidence that they

00:49:21.300 were violent

00:49:21.740 insurrectionists.

00:49:22.700 But it turns out

00:49:23.320 that there's no

00:49:23.900 connection to any of

00:49:25.340 the protesters and

00:49:26.140 the pipe bombs.

00:49:27.040 In fact, there

00:49:28.060 might be a

00:49:28.940 mysterious connection,

00:49:30.460 if you know what I

00:49:31.300 mean.

00:49:32.080 A connection such

00:49:33.160 as, and Thomas

00:49:34.760 Massey is all over

00:49:35.720 this, the FBI has

00:49:38.700 now tied the bomber

00:49:40.920 to a metro card of

00:49:42.800 an ex-government

00:49:43.760 official, but there's

00:49:46.800 a former FBI agent

00:49:48.380 whistleblower who

00:49:49.760 says they were

00:49:50.360 blocked from talking

00:49:51.680 to the people that

00:49:52.780 they know were

00:49:53.560 involved.

00:49:55.060 Wait, what?

00:49:56.020 The FBI, an FBI

00:49:58.160 official, not

00:49:59.540 official, a former

00:50:00.320 agent, is saying

00:50:01.660 that, yes, they knew

00:50:03.560 who was involved and

00:50:05.060 they were not allowed

00:50:05.720 to talk to them.

00:50:08.060 What does that tell

00:50:09.060 you?

00:50:10.020 It tells you it's

00:50:10.720 part of an op.

00:50:11.400 And it tells you

00:50:13.100 that January 6th was

00:50:14.920 in fact an

00:50:16.220 intelligence operation

00:50:17.400 and that one part

00:50:19.120 of it was this

00:50:19.880 pipe bombs.

00:50:20.780 Now, can I

00:50:21.260 confirm that?

00:50:22.300 No.

00:50:23.500 Does it have every

00:50:24.740 indication that it's

00:50:25.800 the case?

00:50:26.980 Yes.

00:50:28.380 I was listening to,

00:50:30.240 saw a video of

00:50:31.820 Jeff Bezos talking

00:50:33.980 about business, not

00:50:35.180 talking about this

00:50:35.820 topic.

00:50:36.820 But he said in

00:50:37.560 business, whenever

00:50:38.860 your data conflicts

00:50:40.380 with your anecdotes,

00:50:42.380 do you know which

00:50:42.960 one he says is more

00:50:44.140 likely to be true?

00:50:45.880 When your data

00:50:46.780 disagrees with your

00:50:48.680 anecdotes, you know,

00:50:49.500 just the things you

00:50:50.260 observe.

00:50:51.140 He says trust the

00:50:52.260 things you observe

00:50:53.220 because data sucks

00:50:55.460 and is often

00:50:56.520 misinterpreted and

00:50:57.780 they're measuring the

00:50:58.620 wrong thing.

00:50:59.960 So data has a very

00:51:01.440 low level of

00:51:02.300 credibility compared

00:51:03.680 to things you see

00:51:04.520 with your own eyes.

00:51:05.320 But you could also

00:51:07.400 be fooled by things

00:51:08.400 you see with your

00:51:08.980 own eyes, as all

00:51:10.520 Democrats apparently

00:51:11.360 are, and many

00:51:12.520 Republicans.

00:51:15.480 So the pipe bomb

00:51:19.160 thing looks to be

00:51:20.920 exactly what it looks

00:51:22.120 like, an op, by some

00:51:24.080 members of our

00:51:25.880 government, maybe

00:51:27.180 former members, maybe

00:51:28.340 current ones at the

00:51:29.220 time.

00:51:30.340 We're doing something

00:51:31.480 on January 6th that

00:51:32.640 looks very much like

00:51:33.600 an op.

00:51:35.100 And if there were

00:51:37.580 no other topics in

00:51:38.700 the world for

00:51:39.260 politics, I would be

00:51:41.280 supporting whoever the

00:51:42.260 Republican candidate is

00:51:43.660 who said they would

00:51:44.380 pardon all the

00:51:44.960 January 6th people.

00:51:46.680 You don't even need a

00:51:47.900 separate conversation

00:51:48.800 about, oh, the

00:51:49.960 economy and Ukraine

00:51:51.200 and, you know,

00:51:52.760 Middle East and

00:51:53.680 blah, blah, blah.

00:51:54.740 If you can't get this

00:51:55.720 one thing right, just

00:51:57.340 one thing, don't put

00:51:58.820 your own citizens in

00:51:59.820 jail for bullshit, for

00:52:02.000 political bullshit.

00:52:03.600 If you can't get that

00:52:04.700 right, I don't even

00:52:05.540 want to have a

00:52:05.980 conversation about the

00:52:06.940 rest.

00:52:08.040 You know, this is your

00:52:09.360 ticket to the ball.

00:52:12.680 You've got to buy that

00:52:13.680 ticket first.

00:52:15.040 I don't even want to

00:52:16.180 hear what comes out of

00:52:17.220 your fucking mouth until

00:52:19.080 you've pardoned the

00:52:19.900 people that are in

00:52:20.520 jail for the January

00:52:22.860 6th.

00:52:23.520 Don't care.

00:52:24.820 Don't care about

00:52:25.760 anything else you have

00:52:26.980 to say.

00:52:27.780 You've got to do that

00:52:28.660 first.

00:52:30.140 Right?

00:52:30.300 If that's not day one

00:52:31.540 business, day two, I'm

00:52:33.720 going to be incensed.

00:52:36.420 Wouldn't you?

00:52:37.960 If we get a president and

00:52:39.940 on day one, the January

00:52:41.400 6th people are not

00:52:42.360 walking out of jail, like

00:52:44.120 walking out, not

00:52:46.180 beginning the process, but

00:52:48.600 they better be fucking

00:52:49.760 walking out of those

00:52:50.820 jail cells the day that

00:52:52.640 the new president is

00:52:53.580 sworn in.

00:52:54.400 And I don't care about

00:52:55.420 anything else.

00:52:56.840 You've got to get that

00:52:58.060 part right.

00:53:00.040 You've got to get that

00:53:00.940 part right.

00:53:01.700 Everything else depends

00:53:02.700 on that.

00:53:04.140 Everything depends on

00:53:05.200 it, because there would

00:53:05.840 be no credibility in

00:53:06.940 your government if you

00:53:07.800 don't do that.

00:53:08.820 And I'm not going to

00:53:09.380 support a Republican

00:53:11.040 president who doesn't

00:53:12.080 do that.

00:53:13.060 If Trump gets in there

00:53:14.080 and he doesn't free

00:53:14.860 those people immediately,

00:53:15.940 let's say it's Trump,

00:53:17.420 no support.

00:53:19.000 I won't support him on

00:53:20.140 anything else.

00:53:22.360 Nothing else.

00:53:24.040 Bottom line.

00:53:24.720 You've got to get my

00:53:26.500 fellow citizens in a

00:53:27.820 jail, and then we'll

00:53:29.340 talk.

00:53:30.560 Everything else depends

00:53:31.480 on that.

00:53:32.300 No other conversations.

00:53:37.800 There's a report now,

00:53:39.020 Michael Schellenberger's

00:53:40.040 got an investigative

00:53:41.180 report.

00:53:44.000 Soros and the FBI are

00:53:45.520 apparently coordinating

00:53:46.840 with the Brazilian people

00:53:48.340 to censor Brazil's

00:53:51.180 free speech.

00:53:54.720 So do you think that

00:53:57.140 George Soros and the

00:53:58.120 FBI are only doing

00:53:59.900 this for other

00:54:00.520 countries?

00:54:02.580 That they only

00:54:03.940 coordinate to suppress

00:54:05.260 free speech in other

00:54:06.740 places?

00:54:08.580 Seems unlikely.

00:54:10.260 Seems pretty unlikely.

00:54:12.200 Now, I'm going to

00:54:12.940 double down on my

00:54:14.260 observation without data.

00:54:16.940 So this will be a Jeff

00:54:18.020 Bezos kind of a play.

00:54:20.180 I have no data that

00:54:22.500 would suggest that

00:54:23.320 George Soros is owned

00:54:24.740 or controlled by any

00:54:26.760 other entity.

00:54:28.320 I have no information,

00:54:29.840 no data, no evidence,

00:54:31.300 not even low-quality

00:54:33.980 evidence.

00:54:34.880 I don't have any

00:54:35.460 evidence.

00:54:36.480 However, my observation

00:54:37.740 is that he acts exactly

00:54:39.220 like somebody trying to

00:54:40.320 destroy the country and

00:54:42.100 doing it so obviously

00:54:43.620 that I can't in any way

00:54:45.880 imagine that he's

00:54:47.220 operating independently.

00:54:48.340 It's completely out of

00:54:52.980 the realm of

00:54:53.660 believable.

00:54:55.040 Somebody is controlling

00:54:56.440 the Soros funding,

00:54:59.060 and I assume it's

00:55:00.960 because we're a

00:55:01.580 blackmailocracy.

00:55:02.880 There's probably some

00:55:03.480 blackmail involved.

00:55:05.320 That's an observation

00:55:06.720 based on what the

00:55:09.400 outcome is.

00:55:10.500 It's not based on data,

00:55:12.920 not based on any

00:55:13.980 evidence that I'm aware

00:55:14.920 of.

00:55:15.120 It's just he acts

00:55:16.920 exactly like he's

00:55:17.860 blackmailed, and that

00:55:19.140 he couldn't possibly be

00:55:20.440 operating in the best

00:55:21.900 interest of America.

00:55:22.940 There's just no way.

00:55:24.380 I mean, it's not even a

00:55:25.640 little bit plausible.

00:55:28.660 Let's talk about the

00:55:29.740 so-called Taylor Swift

00:55:31.400 conspiracy theory.

00:55:35.200 Just for fun.

00:55:37.120 Now, some people have

00:55:38.200 gone a little further

00:55:39.020 with the conspiracy

00:55:39.880 theory than others.

00:55:40.920 I'm somewhere in the

00:55:43.000 middle.

00:55:44.480 The middle ground is

00:55:45.660 that, yes, the

00:55:46.460 government and the

00:55:47.540 Democrats have tried to

00:55:49.840 get Taylor Swift on

00:55:51.580 their side because she's

00:55:52.540 an important cultural

00:55:53.640 icon, and she can

00:55:54.760 apparently move people

00:55:56.300 to register to vote

00:55:57.500 and stuff like that.

00:55:58.880 So that part's not

00:55:59.660 surprising.

00:56:01.920 And Benny Johnson's

00:56:03.480 telling us on the X

00:56:04.500 platform that four years

00:56:05.640 ago, the Pentagon's

00:56:06.680 psychological operations

00:56:07.860 unit pitched NATO

00:56:09.560 about turning Taylor

00:56:11.000 Swift into a social

00:56:12.080 influence asset.

00:56:14.540 So, but keep in mind

00:56:16.180 that because people in

00:56:17.880 the government talked

00:56:18.720 about it, that doesn't

00:56:20.200 mean it happened, and

00:56:21.440 it doesn't mean that

00:56:22.120 Taylor Swift, like, was

00:56:23.740 in on it.

00:56:25.100 So there's a lot of

00:56:26.100 stories about people

00:56:26.880 talking about stuff.

00:56:28.460 Whenever you hear these

00:56:29.260 stories about somebody

00:56:30.000 talked about something,

00:56:31.400 such as the report that

00:56:33.420 RFK Jr. was approached

00:56:35.500 by a member of Trump's

00:56:36.780 team to ask him about

00:56:39.480 being a vice president

00:56:40.480 running mate.

00:56:42.600 Now, first of all, it's

00:56:43.380 the team, and there

00:56:45.080 are probably a lot of

00:56:45.860 teams, you know, a lot

00:56:46.980 of people doing stuff

00:56:47.980 they think would help

00:56:48.740 Trump.

00:56:50.020 And we don't know if

00:56:51.100 Trump was even part of

00:56:52.000 that, right?

00:56:53.420 So you always have to be

00:56:54.640 very careful when you

00:56:56.100 hear that somebody

00:56:56.720 talked about something.

00:56:58.680 You know, remember

00:56:59.340 when there was a report

00:57:00.480 that Trump talked about

00:57:01.460 using a nuclear weapon

00:57:02.580 to stop a hurricane?

00:57:04.420 That is perfectly

00:57:05.600 acceptable to talk

00:57:06.900 about.

00:57:08.200 The fact that, you

00:57:09.640 know, nobody pursued it

00:57:11.420 because it was a bad

00:57:12.160 idea is what you want

00:57:13.540 to hear.

00:57:14.440 That's exactly what you

00:57:15.480 want to hear.

00:57:15.900 Yeah, it wouldn't work.

00:57:16.640 Bad idea.

00:57:17.560 But wouldn't you like

00:57:18.400 to know that if ever

00:57:20.500 there formed a hurricane

00:57:21.560 that looked like it

00:57:22.360 could take out the

00:57:23.100 entire east coast of

00:57:24.100 the United States, and

00:57:25.620 it seems like possible

00:57:26.880 that if somebody said,

00:57:28.580 you know what, if we

00:57:29.800 nuke this thing, you

00:57:31.440 know, once it gets a

00:57:32.080 hundred miles off the

00:57:32.980 coast or whatever, we

00:57:34.880 might be able to stop

00:57:35.680 it.

00:57:37.320 It would be

00:57:37.980 interesting to know

00:57:38.760 if that's within the

00:57:40.300 realm of possible or is

00:57:41.720 it completely crazy.

00:57:43.140 It might be completely

00:57:44.020 crazy, but talking

00:57:45.920 about things is not

00:57:47.220 wrong.

00:57:48.380 Doing them might be

00:57:49.240 wrong, so don't worry

00:57:50.900 about talking about

00:57:51.660 stuff.

00:57:53.620 But then after the

00:57:55.120 Pentagon talked about

00:57:56.620 using her for a social

00:57:58.680 influence asset, in

00:58:00.100 2019, coincidentally,

00:58:02.620 about the same time,

00:58:03.960 George Soros bought her

00:58:06.500 entire music catalog.

00:58:08.180 Huh.

00:58:09.400 That's because George

00:58:10.600 Soros likes to invest

00:58:11.980 in musical assets.

00:58:13.980 Am I right?

00:58:15.500 Man, there's a long

00:58:16.240 history of that George

00:58:18.020 Soros, he is all about

00:58:19.940 the cultural stuff.

00:58:21.660 He's buying music.

00:58:22.660 He must have, oh, so

00:58:23.820 many musical groups, he

00:58:26.040 must have bought their

00:58:26.660 catalog.

00:58:27.160 No.

00:58:28.300 He's not a musical

00:58:29.740 catalog buyer.

00:58:31.280 That's pretty far from

00:58:34.100 his main line of

00:58:35.440 business.

00:58:36.380 Why did he do it?

00:58:37.840 Well, it probably wasn't

00:58:38.760 his idea.

00:58:40.240 Do you think George

00:58:41.000 Soros came up with that

00:58:42.140 idea all on his own?

00:58:43.680 I love that Taylor Swift

00:58:44.900 music.

00:58:46.240 No.

00:58:47.220 Do you think it was

00:58:47.820 Alex's idea?

00:58:49.500 Well, you know, maybe.

00:58:52.780 Maybe he just wanted to

00:58:53.860 meet Taylor Swift and be

00:58:55.560 more relevant.

00:58:56.100 But it's a pretty big

00:58:59.380 coincidence that the

00:59:00.400 person that I think is

00:59:02.480 not operating under his

00:59:03.820 own decisions bought that

00:59:07.760 music catalog.

00:59:09.120 And then in 2020, some

00:59:10.460 say she came in as more

00:59:11.940 liberal, Joe Biden

00:59:12.940 supporter.

00:59:13.700 So she got more vocal,

00:59:15.500 which seems like a big

00:59:16.680 coincidence.

00:59:17.520 But it could be.

00:59:18.860 It could be a

00:59:19.820 coincidence.

00:59:20.120 And then her heiress to

00:59:25.080 her, whatever it's

00:59:26.040 called, last year was

00:59:28.040 the highest revenue.

00:59:30.180 I mean, it made more

00:59:30.920 than the GDP of 50

00:59:32.300 countries.

00:59:34.640 And she helped register

00:59:36.000 over 35,000 people.

00:59:38.780 And now, do we have

00:59:41.720 reason to believe that

00:59:43.520 her ultra success had

00:59:45.140 anything to do with Soros

00:59:47.700 or the government?

00:59:48.400 I would say there's no

00:59:50.000 evidence of that.

00:59:52.060 Because the reason the

00:59:53.660 government was interested

00:59:54.680 in Taylor Swift is that

00:59:56.480 Taylor Swift already had

00:59:57.900 this power.

00:59:59.220 They didn't have to give

01:00:00.080 her the power.

01:00:01.060 The reason they were

01:00:01.980 interested in her is because

01:00:02.980 she had it.

01:00:04.160 So to assume that somehow,

01:00:06.100 I don't know, the CIA

01:00:06.960 helped her make more money

01:00:08.100 in her tour, I don't know

01:00:10.760 how.

01:00:11.860 It's not impossible, by the

01:00:13.260 way.

01:00:13.760 But they wouldn't have to

01:00:14.880 do it.

01:00:15.720 I mean, whether she made

01:00:16.760 $40 million or $35 million,

01:00:20.000 and maybe they could have

01:00:20.960 influenced that, but that

01:00:22.080 wouldn't be worth the

01:00:23.760 effort.

01:00:24.740 So I don't think they

01:00:25.760 influenced how much money

01:00:26.800 she made on the tour.

01:00:27.580 But what about this?

01:00:29.000 Now she's decided she's

01:00:30.360 dating this football player

01:00:32.820 who apparently was

01:00:35.700 promoting the vaccinations

01:00:37.100 from Pfizer for pay, a

01:00:39.480 paid spokesperson.

01:00:40.160 And here, Benny Johnson

01:00:44.200 is saying that he was

01:00:45.320 somehow related to the

01:00:48.100 Bud Light product.

01:00:49.320 I don't know what his

01:00:50.040 relationship to that was.

01:00:53.380 And he's a member, of

01:00:55.400 course, of the most

01:00:55.900 watched sport, and he made

01:00:57.040 it into the Super Bowl.

01:00:58.280 Now, do we assume that

01:01:00.860 Pfizer is behind it?

01:01:03.060 No, I don't think Pfizer can

01:01:05.880 tell Taylor Swift who to date.

01:01:07.480 I don't think so.

01:01:09.360 I don't think the CIA can

01:01:10.620 tell her who to date.

01:01:12.140 So I figure it's probably

01:01:13.480 it's just he's a popular

01:01:15.540 guy, and, you know, he

01:01:18.420 meets all the criteria for

01:01:20.320 Taylor.

01:01:22.200 And then, so that part

01:01:25.480 looks like a coincidence.

01:01:27.480 But if you were a

01:01:28.540 conspiracy theorist, there's a

01:01:30.560 lot of coincidences, aren't

01:01:31.720 there?

01:01:32.980 It's way more coincidences

01:01:34.620 than you would expect.

01:01:36.860 But I remind you of the

01:01:39.280 Bible code.

01:01:40.680 Have you ever heard of the

01:01:41.280 Bible code?

01:01:42.480 It was a story when I was a

01:01:44.240 youngster that if you ran a

01:01:46.460 program against the actual

01:01:47.820 Bible, you'd find all these

01:01:49.660 hidden messages.

01:01:51.480 And sure enough, there they

01:01:53.660 are.

01:01:54.280 You could actually check

01:01:55.320 yourself and see that, like,

01:01:57.860 it would be stuff like if you

01:01:59.760 took the third letter in every

01:02:02.660 word, you know, they would

01:02:04.900 form a sentence that

01:02:06.240 predicted something that

01:02:07.440 happened, right?

01:02:09.300 Now, you say to yourself, how

01:02:11.080 in the world could these codes

01:02:12.860 exist and also predict the

01:02:15.000 future unless God put them

01:02:16.980 there?

01:02:17.820 How else?

01:02:19.200 How can he explain it any

01:02:20.400 other way?

01:02:20.980 Because they are there, by the

01:02:22.000 way.

01:02:22.520 Those actual messages are in the

01:02:25.500 King James Bible.

01:02:28.500 Do I have to tell you how

01:02:29.780 stupid this is?

01:02:31.920 Number one, they ran the

01:02:33.820 software against war and

01:02:35.300 peace.

01:02:36.760 And guess what?

01:02:38.660 War and peace is full of

01:02:40.100 hidden codes that accurately

01:02:42.160 predicted the future.

01:02:44.280 Yeah, it works on any lengthy

01:02:45.940 book, basically.

01:02:47.700 Just, you know, you can find

01:02:48.900 all these spurious patterns and

01:02:50.320 connect it to the news.

01:02:51.980 So the Bible code became a big

01:02:54.500 thing because people were not,

01:02:56.100 let's say, statistically

01:02:58.380 literate, and they imagined it

01:03:00.800 was impossible to be a

01:03:02.140 coincidence.

01:03:03.260 Not only was it possible, it

01:03:05.300 was guaranteed by the size of

01:03:07.220 the book.

01:03:08.720 Every book of that size and

01:03:10.700 complexity would have apparent

01:03:13.580 hidden codes that are just

01:03:14.800 coincidence.

01:03:17.580 So we're very easily fooled into

01:03:19.640 thinking that random patterns are

01:03:23.000 coincidence.

01:03:23.680 There are a hell of a lot of

01:03:24.780 coincidences in this Taylor Swift

01:03:26.440 story.

01:03:27.240 There's no doubt about it.

01:03:28.620 And it does look like the blob,

01:03:31.580 the intelligence people, did have

01:03:33.040 an interest in her.

01:03:34.000 And we know that the CIA has,

01:03:36.460 you know, decades-long practice

01:03:39.480 of getting cultural figures on

01:03:41.520 their side.

01:03:43.400 And I remind you that if you get

01:03:46.260 vexed by seeing people such as

01:03:49.320 Rob Reiner or Stephen King, who

01:03:51.940 are saying what appear to be

01:03:53.600 tedious, crazy things about

01:03:55.180 Trump, I have no evidence to

01:03:57.600 suggest that they're working for

01:03:59.500 an intelligence operation.

01:04:01.680 In other words, in a Jeff Bezos

01:04:04.420 way, I have no data that is

01:04:07.480 trustworthy.

01:04:08.840 But anecdotally, they act like

01:04:13.320 they're doing it for a paycheck.

01:04:14.980 Probably not literally for a

01:04:16.500 paycheck, but they act as though

01:04:18.620 it's a job, like they're on a

01:04:20.760 mission.

01:04:20.960 It doesn't look like people who

01:04:22.600 care about politics and just are

01:04:24.420 vocal.

01:04:25.340 It looks very much like there's

01:04:28.700 some coordinated interests in

01:04:31.280 common, something like that.

01:04:34.820 That doesn't mean it's true.

01:04:36.780 That just means that it looks

01:04:39.060 exactly like that.

01:04:40.460 And if you imagine the conspiracies

01:04:42.860 are true and the worst-case

01:04:44.460 scenarios are true, it does explain

01:04:46.620 just about everything you see.

01:04:47.720 And it also predicts really well.

01:04:50.580 If it predicts, let me make another

01:04:53.000 prediction.

01:04:54.060 I predict that both Rob Reiner and

01:04:56.760 Stephen King will say crazy shit

01:04:59.560 about Trump for the next 11 months.

01:05:03.180 It's predictable.

01:05:05.520 But it doesn't mean it's because

01:05:07.540 they're being influenced.

01:05:09.560 All right.

01:05:09.980 Trump is taking credit for the stock

01:05:11.920 market being up so far in the last

01:05:13.760 few months.

01:05:15.700 And that's why I bought a stock.

01:05:19.400 Oh, by the way, I have a

01:05:21.160 disclosure.

01:05:23.740 Because I always talk about Elon

01:05:25.580 Musk and I talk about Tesla and

01:05:28.700 robots and all that, I feel I have

01:05:31.040 some responsibility to disclose that

01:05:33.520 I own Tesla stock.

01:05:35.040 Now, I've said that before.

01:05:36.040 But I doubled down this week.

01:05:39.680 So I did a major increase in my

01:05:42.940 purchase of Tesla.

01:05:44.500 I don't recommend it because I never

01:05:47.460 recommend that you do what I do when

01:05:49.040 it comes to individual stocks.

01:05:50.920 It's never a good idea to buy

01:05:52.540 individual stocks.

01:05:54.180 The one time that it makes sense, and

01:05:56.240 you're probably not in this situation,

01:05:58.400 is if you're rich enough that you can

01:06:01.160 do it for fun.

01:06:03.360 Basically, it's finding out how smart

01:06:04.980 you are. It's a way to test yourself

01:06:07.300 to see if you know anything about

01:06:09.300 anything. Because if you can, you

01:06:11.220 know, invest well over time with

01:06:13.140 individual stocks, maybe you do have

01:06:15.240 some advantage.

01:06:16.560 You know, most people don't.

01:06:17.760 So it's a crazy, stupid thing to do.

01:06:19.820 You should buy a diversified

01:06:21.480 index fund.

01:06:24.640 That would be the good advice.

01:06:26.020 Be diversified.

01:06:27.020 So the only advice I like to give is

01:06:28.700 be diversified.

01:06:29.920 But I do feel like I owe you an

01:06:32.800 explanation of why, yeah, QQQ would be

01:06:35.320 a good way to diversify, but also make

01:06:38.480 sure you have some AI exposure.

01:06:40.360 Because there'll be a lot of that in

01:06:41.560 the QQQ, which is an index fund of a

01:06:45.120 lot of tech companies, mostly.

01:06:47.920 So here's why I doubled down on Tesla.

01:06:50.880 It's not for political reasons.

01:06:52.920 Yeah, just because I like what Musk is

01:06:55.380 doing. It's not that.

01:06:56.340 It's because, number one, it's an

01:06:59.600 election year, so stocks in general

01:07:02.420 should do fine this year.

01:07:04.060 So that's sort of a baseline, but it's

01:07:05.860 not the reason.

01:07:07.220 It's a supporting reason, but not the

01:07:09.040 reason.

01:07:10.200 And part of the reason is because of

01:07:12.000 robots.

01:07:13.400 I think that the Tesla robots, if it

01:07:16.540 stays within the Tesla domain, will be

01:07:19.500 the one-time biggest play in the history

01:07:22.460 of humankind.

01:07:23.260 In other words, there may never, in the

01:07:26.280 history of humanity, be a second time

01:07:29.160 you can be on the ground floor of

01:07:32.600 robots.

01:07:34.420 Robots are going to be bigger than

01:07:35.780 cars, bigger than computers, bigger than

01:07:38.360 everything.

01:07:39.460 And not just a little bit.

01:07:41.120 They might be ten times bigger than the

01:07:43.260 biggest thing we've ever had.

01:07:45.320 I think that that's an accurate

01:07:47.180 statement.

01:07:48.240 It could be just so big you can't even

01:07:50.480 imagine it.

01:07:50.960 Now, if you have zero exposure to that

01:07:54.860 industry, I feel like that's a mistake.

01:07:58.100 But like I said, if you have QQQ, which

01:08:00.300 is a well-diversified, you know, it's

01:08:02.540 diversified within tech, you're going to

01:08:05.080 get a bunch of AI.

01:08:07.800 So you might get it in an easier way than

01:08:10.060 I am.

01:08:10.840 Now, the next thing is, I believe that

01:08:12.660 Elon Musk is being targeted by the Biden

01:08:14.860 administration, and that that's putting a

01:08:17.360 drag on the stock.

01:08:18.480 Indeed, recently, just yesterday, Delaware

01:08:22.360 struck down his pay package.

01:08:25.160 The pay package that Musk and his own

01:08:28.920 board negotiated long ago, 2018, I think, and

01:08:32.540 would it be worth $56 billion, $55 billion if

01:08:36.980 it was allowed to work through to completion.

01:08:40.060 But it got blocked by some stockholders who

01:08:43.360 said, no, you had too much control over the

01:08:46.560 board, you know, they were too much insiders, and

01:08:49.140 they gave you too good a deal, and that's not

01:08:51.560 fair to the stockholders, because some of

01:08:53.540 that $55 billion should have gone to the

01:08:55.820 stockholders, they would say.

01:08:58.480 Now, without giving you an opinion on that, I mean,

01:09:01.780 I lean toward the free market, you know, let the

01:09:07.020 free market do what it wants as long as it's

01:09:08.780 fully disclosed.

01:09:10.400 So I lean toward, you know, Elon Musk's point

01:09:13.600 of view on this.

01:09:15.080 But the, you know, I understand also the lawsuit

01:09:19.200 from the stockholders.

01:09:21.680 They're just operating on if it works, it works,

01:09:24.700 they make some more money.

01:09:25.920 So I would see that just as a financial play, not

01:09:28.620 any kind of what's right or wrong.

01:09:29.840 So, and, yeah, so anyway, one of the reasons

01:09:39.180 known Tesla, which is not a recommendation, don't

01:09:44.000 take any financial recommendation from me, is

01:09:46.560 that the pressure from the government could be

01:09:48.840 released if there's a Republican president.

01:09:52.040 So that would be good.

01:09:53.540 And then he's on the verge of just a lot of good

01:09:56.940 things happening.

01:09:57.460 All right, so do you think it matters that Delaware

01:10:06.200 is owned by the Biden family and Delaware is where a

01:10:10.180 lot of people incorporate and then they went after

01:10:13.560 Musk?

01:10:15.220 Do you think it's a coincidence that the most Biden-friendly

01:10:19.380 state of all states, the very small one, and where they're

01:10:23.000 completely connected to the political system, is it a

01:10:26.640 coincidence that that's who's trying to take Musk down?

01:10:30.260 So you see that the big play for Tesla stock, besides robots,

01:10:36.220 is government.

01:10:40.680 So a Trump presidency, you could expect, would take the anvil off

01:10:46.260 of, off the head of Tesla.

01:10:49.840 All right, Trump's taking credit for the stock market.

01:10:52.900 Do you believe, do you buy that?

01:10:54.460 Because the argument would be the stocks are going up because they

01:10:57.880 expect that a Trump administration would be good for the economy.

01:11:02.200 I don't know what other people are thinking, but for me, it's a

01:11:04.900 thing.

01:11:05.120 I definitely am heavier in stocks and buying into stocks, specifically

01:11:12.520 because I think the political situation will improve.

01:11:17.760 The odds of a Republican, at least, president are pretty high.

01:11:22.760 So yes, I think Trump actually has a leg to stand on.

01:11:29.020 But to be fair, in my prior story, I told you how the AP is telling

01:11:36.420 people the economy is good and then polling them and reporting that

01:11:39.380 they say it's good.

01:11:41.420 So the media is also driving the stock market.

01:11:45.760 So you've got the media driving it up this year.

01:11:48.800 You've got the likelihood of a Republican victory, which would

01:11:51.760 drive it up further.

01:11:53.120 You have us coming off a pandemic, which should make all the numbers

01:11:56.340 look artificially better, which people will take as confidence.

01:12:02.300 So there's a whole bunch of good things happening.

01:12:04.960 And that's why I'm heavy in the stock market.

01:12:07.400 But I don't recommend it.

01:12:09.080 You should not listen to me.

01:12:11.260 And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the conclusion of the best

01:12:16.680 live stream you're going to see today.

01:12:19.100 And I hope you enjoyed my new microphone stand.

01:12:22.740 I believe it has changed the nature of the show completely.

01:12:30.080 Yeah, because it's not putting a shadow on my face in the same way.

01:12:33.000 I guess it is a little bit.

01:12:34.220 I need to get away from it a little bit.

01:12:36.940 We didn't talk.

01:12:37.580 Did we talk about Joy Reid's hot mic moment?

01:12:44.700 I think I did yesterday.

01:12:46.220 I might have talked about it yesterday.

01:12:47.440 So Joy Reid of MSNBC went to a clip about Biden.

01:12:52.360 And then, even though it wasn't about the war, the clip wasn't,

01:12:55.640 she said in a hot mic, starting another effing war, talking about Biden.

01:13:01.700 So that's what MSNBC says when they're not on camera.

01:13:07.880 A very, very negative thing to say about a president.

01:13:10.640 I can't think of a worse thing to say about a president than, quote,

01:13:16.280 starting another effing war.

01:13:19.160 If you start one war that's optional, because that's the context, it's optional,

01:13:25.020 you're a bad president.

01:13:27.120 If anybody who's on your team can use the phrase another, another war,

01:13:33.480 if that even comes out of their mouth, you've lost.

01:13:37.540 You don't have a frickin' chance.

01:13:40.480 Another war?

01:13:41.640 I think he's up to five wars if you count the war against MAGA.

01:13:46.500 The war he should be fighting is with the cartels.

01:13:49.020 Apparently, he's more on their side than we'd like to believe.

01:13:54.500 All right.

01:14:02.180 Dems start wars, Republicans end them.

01:14:04.660 I don't know about that.

01:14:05.660 I think it's worked out that way, but I don't know if it's a political reason.

01:14:15.320 All right, ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to say bye to the platforms of YouTube and Rumble and X.

01:14:21.020 Thanks for joining.

01:14:22.320 By the way, I think my total viewership per day is up to about 100,000.

01:14:28.220 Now, that's 100,000, including the recorded, people watching it recorded.

01:14:32.300 But 100,000 people watching this content every day on all the various platforms.

01:14:40.260 And if I ever get to a million, I'm running the country.

01:14:44.620 So that's my promise to you.

01:14:49.760 I don't think I'll get to a million.

01:14:51.260 But if I ever get to a million on this live stream, I would effectively be running the country.

01:14:56.480 And by the way, that's not an exaggeration.

01:14:59.140 And that's your message for the day.

01:15:01.180 I will talk to you tomorrow.

01:15:02.340 Let's take a video.

01:15:02.800 Bye-bye.

01:15:03.280 Bye-bye.

01:15:03.840 Bye-bye.

01:15:05.920 Bye-bye.

01:15:07.460 Bye-bye.

01:15:08.080 Bye-bye.

01:15:09.100 Bye-bye.

01:15:10.620 Bye-bye.

01:15:11.400 Bye-bye.

01:15:15.420 Bye-bye.
