Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2377 CWSA 02⧸07⧸24

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

00:00:10.800 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:12.720 Never been a better time.

00:00:14.460 I'm sure of it.

00:00:15.820 And if you'd like to take your experience up to levels that are unimaginable,

00:00:20.160 all you need for that is a copper mug or a glass,

00:00:23.920 a tankard, shells, or stein, a canteen, jug, or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:27.920 Fill it with your favorite liquid I like.

00:00:30.220 Coffee.

00:00:31.540 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine to end the day,

00:00:34.940 the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:36.260 It's called the simultaneous sipping happens now.

00:00:39.560 Go.

00:00:43.480 Oh, that's so good.

00:00:46.540 So good.

00:00:47.960 I'll remind all of you on the various four platforms to which I am streaming

00:00:54.820 that if any of you have any technical problems,

00:00:57.360 it always helps to update your app or just reboot, get out, and get back in.

00:01:01.920 That usually works.

00:01:03.440 Now, to begin with, the most important story.

00:01:08.840 You know, there's a lot of stories in the news.

00:01:10.420 I tell myself I should worry about that or that looks like a problem for me.

00:01:15.780 But this one, I don't know if I can avoid this one.

00:01:18.140 It turns out that pistachio nuts sometimes can explode, according to Reddit.

00:01:26.600 That if you get some moisture on your nuts,

00:01:30.360 there's something about the fatty acids and the, I don't know,

00:01:34.400 there's some kind of chemical in there that under the right conditions,

00:01:37.480 your nuts will explode.

00:01:40.460 And apparently it doesn't, it might not be limited to pistachios,

00:01:44.960 which, by the way, some say are not nuts at all.

00:01:49.040 But apparently your nuts can explode.

00:01:52.420 So if you're worried about the border crisis,

00:01:55.360 well, sure, that's bad.

00:01:56.980 But your nuts could explode.

00:01:58.520 You're worried about the Middle East, about Ukraine, about inflation?

00:02:03.580 Yes, those are all problems.

00:02:06.180 But also your nuts could explode.

00:02:08.280 So keep it in perspective, please.

00:02:10.560 I would like to start today by playing a clip

00:02:14.180 that features Molly Hemingway testifying to Congress

00:02:19.100 about how completely broken our election systems,

00:02:23.080 and in fact, our whole system is.

00:02:25.000 Now, it's sort of a brilliant few minutes,

00:02:27.400 normally I wouldn't, you know, play a little clip like this on this show,

00:02:31.860 but she just does such a good job of pulling it all together,

00:02:36.660 if you don't mind.

00:02:38.620 Molly Hemingway, this morning, I think this was just minutes ago, really,

00:02:43.300 testifying to Congress.

00:02:44.580 Thank you for giving me the opportunity to testify today.

00:02:48.220 The American system of self-governance is under attack.

00:02:51.920 Instead of an election day where everyone votes at the same time

00:02:56.220 and with the same full set of information,

00:02:59.200 votes are counted quickly,

00:03:00.760 and everyone promptly knows and trusts the outcome,

00:03:04.080 we now have lengthy election seasons

00:03:06.300 that can last months prior to and even after election day.

00:03:10.660 Yeah, why?

00:03:11.180 The situation is so absurd that we have presidential and gubernatorial debates

00:03:14.860 weeks after some people have already voted.

00:03:17.980 After.

00:03:18.380 Instead of having total security and a verifiable chain of custody

00:03:22.160 for ballots being issued, cast, and counted,

00:03:25.180 we flood addresses across the country

00:03:27.720 with tens of millions of unsupervised mail-in ballots

00:03:31.220 months ahead of elections,

00:03:33.260 frequently to locations from which voters,

00:03:35.700 if they're even alive, have long since moved.

00:03:39.040 Instead of having election administration

00:03:41.020 that is rigorously nonpartisan and impartial under the law,

00:03:45.140 we have allowed the private takeover of government election offices

00:03:49.680 by partisan oligarchs and their armies of activists

00:03:53.360 who use those offices and their authorities

00:03:56.180 to tilt the election toward favored candidates.

00:03:59.920 Instead of voters being able to vote for the candidate of their choice,

00:04:04.240 powerful interests backed by wealthy oligarchs

00:04:07.140 are working to remove the most popular candidate

00:04:10.080 and the ruling party's chief opponent from the ballot

00:04:14.060 in a move reminiscent of Soviet Russia.

00:04:17.540 And if that weren't enough,

00:04:19.000 instead of the top candidates chosen by the people

00:04:21.320 being able to fully engage in a vigorous campaign

00:04:24.120 heading into an election,

00:04:25.960 we have one side actively attempting to throw its opponent in prison

00:04:30.040 and bankrupt his family,

00:04:32.560 again, reminiscent of Soviet Russia.

00:04:34.620 Instead of a system of rule of law

00:04:37.800 that gives Americans the same rights and due process,

00:04:41.120 the Department of Justice and other partisan actors

00:04:43.680 are prosecuting their opposition,

00:04:46.740 whether powerful or lowly,

00:04:48.560 and doing so in places where partisan juries

00:04:50.820 will ensure a quick conviction.

00:04:53.660 Instead of a free and independent press

00:04:55.820 that shares news and information to help inform voters,

00:04:59.060 we have a press that is almost exclusively

00:05:00.980 the arm of one political party.

00:05:02.820 It is so corrupt that it is willing to perpetrate

00:05:05.960 hoax after hoax against opposition party members.

00:05:09.220 Hoax after hoax.

00:05:10.280 Instead of a vibrant public square

00:05:12.020 where Americans can debate issues

00:05:13.740 and express their strongly held views,

00:05:15.820 we have an elaborate censorship industrial complex

00:05:18.620 where the government works hand in hand

00:05:20.820 with tech oligarchs

00:05:22.320 to suppress and blacklist debate

00:05:24.600 on all the important issues

00:05:26.260 that contribute to election outcomes.

00:05:28.520 This is something I know firsthand

00:05:30.380 because our government worked with tech companies

00:05:33.060 to censor me for my election reporting.

00:05:36.540 Allowing just one of these attacks

00:05:38.180 to infect our electoral system would be a crisis.

00:05:41.180 Allowing all of them at the same time

00:05:43.080 is an existential threat

00:05:44.440 to our system of self-government.

00:05:46.720 In my best-selling book

00:05:47.960 on how election administration

00:05:49.320 has been co-opted by groups seeking political power,

00:05:52.440 I reported on a new phenomenon in the 2020 election

00:05:55.300 that has already severely eroded trust

00:05:57.820 and needs to be addressed decisively.

00:06:00.000 In the last presidential election,

00:06:02.960 non-profit groups with very strong ties

00:06:04.920 to the Democrat Party

00:06:05.980 and funded by one of the world's wealthiest

00:06:08.220 and most powerful men,

00:06:09.540 Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg,

00:06:11.460 took over government election offices,

00:06:13.760 most notably in the Democrat areas of swing states.

00:06:18.120 Since then, the efforts by partisans

00:06:20.120 to further infiltrate government election offices

00:06:22.420 to ensure favorable outcomes have only increased.

00:06:25.780 I look forward to answering questions

00:06:27.480 about how the private oligarch takeover of elections

00:06:30.280 is a threat to our system of self-government.

00:06:34.340 All right, I saw that in a post by Greg Price.

00:06:40.220 She's so good.

00:06:42.680 Every time I see her talk on TV,

00:06:45.140 I always say the same thing.

00:06:47.060 Nobody does that better.

00:06:49.240 You know, if you want to get to the heart of an issue,

00:06:51.900 like really fast and really clean,

00:06:55.040 Molly Hemingway is the best.

00:06:57.240 Anyway, I have a theme for today's show.

00:07:02.680 And the theme is that everything is corrupt.

00:07:07.680 Everything is corrupt.

00:07:09.760 Everything.

00:07:10.960 Now, I think Molly gave you a good introduction to that.

00:07:15.500 And if that didn't make your nuts explode,

00:07:18.140 well, maybe the moisture on your pistachios

00:07:20.320 will get it done.

00:07:21.900 But here's some news today.

00:07:23.980 The DNC chair, Rana McDaniel, has resigned.

00:07:30.100 Do you think that signals something?

00:07:32.720 Hmm.

00:07:33.680 Hmm.

00:07:34.340 I'm going to speculate.

00:07:35.800 I will now speculate.

00:07:38.560 I will now speculate.

00:07:41.620 It seems to me that Vivek Ramaswamy

00:07:43.760 was the strongest voice asking her to leave.

00:07:46.900 There were lots of others.

00:07:48.080 But he seemed to be the most prominent

00:07:49.640 because he was doing it from the perspective

00:07:52.320 of running for president.

00:07:53.680 Now, he's not running for president now,

00:07:55.260 but he's on the short list of people being considered

00:07:59.140 for vice president, at least in the conversation.

00:08:02.020 We don't know what Trump is thinking.

00:08:05.060 But does it seem a coincidence to you

00:08:08.120 that Rana McDaniel is gone

00:08:13.260 and the decision about the VP is getting close?

00:08:18.860 Let me tell you something that I suspect.

00:08:21.480 This is pure speculation.

00:08:23.240 I don't have any, no inside information.

00:08:26.600 I feel like this is a signal that Vivek

00:08:29.060 is going to get the vice presidential nod.

00:08:32.380 And the reason is, I believe that he would have said,

00:08:35.440 I'm interested in the vice president job,

00:08:38.440 but not under the condition

00:08:40.240 that the fundraising and the RNC chair

00:08:45.440 is Rana McDaniel.

00:08:48.760 I feel like these are connected.

00:08:51.640 Now, it doesn't have to be

00:08:52.900 because there are other people

00:08:53.980 and maybe she had her own reasons, et cetera.

00:08:59.060 So I think it's fascinating the timing of it all.

00:09:05.160 I think it's signaling Vivek, but we'll see.

00:09:09.180 Because, and here's why I say it.

00:09:11.280 Well, if you were a Vivek

00:09:12.660 and you knew that, you know,

00:09:14.020 there was a lot of push for you to join the ticket,

00:09:17.340 wouldn't you ask for something in return?

00:09:20.600 Because that's called free money.

00:09:23.220 If somebody's already made up their mind,

00:09:25.300 this also works for employment.

00:09:27.620 Same thing for employment.

00:09:29.060 Of a regular kind.

00:09:30.700 If somebody makes you an offer,

00:09:32.460 it means they're already committed.

00:09:35.720 That psychologically, they've already decided,

00:09:38.020 I don't want to change my mind.

00:09:39.320 I want you to say yes.

00:09:40.840 And then I want to work on other things.

00:09:42.480 I don't want to go back to figuring out who I hire.

00:09:45.520 So that gives you leverage

00:09:46.720 because the person who's going to say,

00:09:48.260 do you want the job,

00:09:49.680 doesn't want to go back and redo the whole process

00:09:52.180 of finding out who to hire.

00:09:54.080 They're a little bit painted in a corner.

00:09:56.760 A little bit.

00:09:57.240 And so you could ask for something.

00:10:00.040 You can't ask for everything.

00:10:01.840 That would be a bad look.

00:10:03.580 But you could ask for one thing.

00:10:06.740 And do you know who would know that?

00:10:10.260 Vivek.

00:10:11.400 Like he would be one of the few people

00:10:13.200 in the public domain

00:10:15.060 who would say,

00:10:16.160 huh, I recognize this situation.

00:10:18.580 If they want me,

00:10:19.920 they probably would give me one thing.

00:10:22.020 So I'll ask for one thing.

00:10:23.540 I'll just make sure it looks like it's good for everybody.

00:10:26.220 So here's the one thing.

00:10:27.760 I don't think I can win under the condition

00:10:29.700 that our fundraising is no good.

00:10:31.980 So you're going to have to make this one change

00:10:33.720 and then yes,

00:10:34.580 I will take the job.

00:10:37.900 Who else would have done that?

00:10:39.440 Who else in your imagination

00:10:43.000 would have said,

00:10:44.560 you know,

00:10:44.960 this is actually a position

00:10:46.020 where weirdly it's not obvious,

00:10:47.960 but I actually have some leverage.

00:10:50.280 Trump.

00:10:51.260 Trump would have recognized that situation

00:10:53.320 as one that it's not obvious,

00:10:56.080 but you have leverage.

00:10:58.040 I used the same technique

00:10:59.700 when I negotiated my first syndication contract

00:11:02.520 and some others after that.

00:11:04.660 Once you get to the point

00:11:05.760 where you've been negotiating for a long time

00:11:07.800 and you're really close,

00:11:10.180 that last thing you ask for

00:11:12.260 is almost free

00:11:13.720 because you've exhausted each other

00:11:17.860 in the negotiating

00:11:18.900 and you're like,

00:11:20.140 okay,

00:11:20.480 but just one more thing.

00:11:22.400 You can almost always get that one more thing

00:11:24.500 if it's not a big crazy thing.

00:11:26.420 It's just,

00:11:27.020 all right,

00:11:28.020 I just can't talk about this anymore.

00:11:29.900 All right,

00:11:30.300 you got that one thing.

00:11:31.640 That's what this feels like,

00:11:33.880 but it's just a guess.

00:11:34.700 Well,

00:11:37.100 interestingly,

00:11:38.620 Matt Gaetz,

00:11:40.620 who famously led the move

00:11:43.500 to get Kevin McCarthy

00:11:44.800 ousted from the leadership role,

00:11:49.340 thinks that,

00:11:50.160 and is saying it in public,

00:11:51.160 that Kevin McCarthy

00:11:52.100 would be great for the RNC chair.

00:11:54.600 Now,

00:11:54.860 this is why I like Matt Gaetz.

00:11:57.400 I love the fact

00:11:58.440 that he can,

00:11:59.160 you know,

00:11:59.540 put his entire reputation

00:12:00.820 on the line

00:12:01.520 saying that this guy

00:12:03.160 is the wrong guy

00:12:03.900 to be the leader

00:12:05.520 of our,

00:12:06.120 you know,

00:12:06.540 legislative process,

00:12:08.380 but at the same time,

00:12:09.820 I think everybody agrees

00:12:10.980 that he's excellent

00:12:12.040 at fundraising,

00:12:13.820 and that's a fundraising job,

00:12:15.320 the head of the RNC.

00:12:16.900 So,

00:12:17.460 Matt Gaetz saying in public,

00:12:19.320 fully endorsing him,

00:12:21.080 he'd be great at this.

00:12:22.920 Now,

00:12:23.200 I completely respect that.

00:12:25.200 The thing I love about Matt

00:12:26.400 is even when I don't agree with him,

00:12:28.220 and I usually do,

00:12:29.520 but even when I don't,

00:12:30.640 he shows his work.

00:12:33.200 Perfect.

00:12:34.300 Just show your work

00:12:35.300 in a way that I can say

00:12:37.220 yes or no,

00:12:38.280 but don't hide the ball.

00:12:39.960 He never hides the ball.

00:12:41.940 Yeah.

00:12:42.580 No,

00:12:43.060 I don't want him to be,

00:12:44.180 you know,

00:12:44.720 putting bills through.

00:12:46.280 Yes,

00:12:46.580 I do want him to raise money.

00:12:47.760 He's good at that.

00:12:48.700 Perfect.

00:12:49.700 Do more of that.

00:12:53.380 All right.

00:12:55.380 My theme today

00:12:56.320 is everything is corrupt,

00:12:57.500 and it's obvious.

00:12:59.220 So,

00:13:00.540 a former top prosecutor

00:13:01.860 in Baltimore,

00:13:03.360 a prosecutor,

00:13:04.780 a person whose job it is

00:13:05.940 to put criminals in jail,

00:13:07.980 looks like she'll be going to jail

00:13:09.300 for a real long time

00:13:10.360 because it turns out

00:13:11.260 she's a criminal,

00:13:12.860 and she

00:13:13.780 made some false statements

00:13:15.740 on a mortgage application

00:13:17.560 about some

00:13:18.500 income

00:13:20.780 from some source.

00:13:22.460 I guess it was a lie.

00:13:24.040 Now,

00:13:24.320 you might say to yourself,

00:13:25.360 but Scott,

00:13:26.020 didn't Trump do the same thing?

00:13:28.660 You know,

00:13:28.840 didn't he exaggerate

00:13:30.580 the value of his property?

00:13:32.340 Yes.

00:13:32.920 There's a big difference,

00:13:33.940 though.

00:13:34.740 If you exaggerate

00:13:35.760 the value of an asset

00:13:36.900 that you know

00:13:37.800 the bank is going

00:13:38.600 to check on their own

00:13:39.600 and they're never

00:13:40.220 going to take your word

00:13:41.020 for it,

00:13:42.080 that's really different.

00:13:43.160 That's actually

00:13:43.600 business as usual.

00:13:44.780 That's what the bank said.

00:13:46.080 Even the bank said,

00:13:47.080 we don't take their word

00:13:47.820 for it.

00:13:48.400 We just check ourselves.

00:13:50.260 But this was something

00:13:51.160 about income

00:13:52.060 from a,

00:13:52.880 I think if there was

00:13:54.940 some issue

00:13:55.680 about income

00:13:56.160 from some side company,

00:13:59.380 that would be hard

00:14:00.100 for an external source

00:14:01.400 to audit.

00:14:02.520 So that's where

00:14:03.400 it gets sketchy.

00:14:04.740 Yeah.

00:14:05.120 So I don't know

00:14:05.980 that that's 30 years

00:14:06.920 in jail worth,

00:14:07.820 but they're reporting it.

00:14:10.020 So keep an eye on that.

00:14:12.300 So the people

00:14:12.860 who are in charge

00:14:13.940 of making sure

00:14:14.520 the law is obeyed,

00:14:17.600 at least this top prosecutor

00:14:18.920 from Baltimore

00:14:19.680 was in fact

00:14:20.740 one of the criminals.

00:14:22.960 How often

00:14:23.600 does that happen?

00:14:29.300 Wasn't it sarcastic?

00:14:31.020 Are you saying

00:14:31.500 that the,

00:14:32.960 what did you say

00:14:33.740 was sarcastic?

00:14:34.560 I'm seeing the notes.

00:14:35.880 Do you mean

00:14:36.340 Matt Gaetz?

00:14:42.140 No, I don't,

00:14:42.940 I read the Gaetz thing.

00:14:44.100 I didn't think

00:14:44.480 it was sarcastic.

00:14:45.680 I'll read it again,

00:14:46.480 but it looked to me

00:14:47.060 like it was real.

00:14:47.660 All right.

00:14:49.240 I hear your note.

00:14:51.420 All right.

00:14:53.240 I'm going to double down

00:14:54.540 on the fact

00:14:55.100 that the anti-Semites

00:14:56.620 or alleged anti-Semites

00:14:58.060 on X,

00:14:58.560 of which there are

00:14:59.300 quite a few of them,

00:15:00.320 especially lately,

00:15:01.520 they don't seem real.

00:15:04.280 And the reason,

00:15:05.540 I don't want to give

00:15:06.400 completely away

00:15:07.240 what the tell is,

00:15:09.080 because if I give it away,

00:15:10.420 then they won't do the tell,

00:15:12.120 and then I won't be able

00:15:12.840 to tell who's real.

00:15:14.080 But they're really

00:15:15.380 obviously not real.

00:15:16.580 Can you see it

00:15:20.040 or is it just me?

00:15:22.740 Do you all see it?

00:15:24.020 There's a commonality

00:15:25.460 to them

00:15:26.180 that's different

00:15:27.920 from what they used

00:15:29.320 to look like,

00:15:30.160 you know,

00:15:30.500 even when it wasn't

00:15:31.340 an election year.

00:15:32.640 It's very sudden

00:15:33.820 and it seems organized,

00:15:35.820 and my guess would be

00:15:36.880 it's exactly

00:15:37.840 what it looks like.

00:15:39.560 Exactly what it looks like

00:15:40.920 is a paid attempt

00:15:43.140 to make the X platform

00:15:44.860 look like it's where

00:15:46.340 all the bad stuff's happening.

00:15:48.540 Now, if you say to me,

00:15:50.040 Scott,

00:15:51.060 you conspiratorial idiot,

00:15:54.960 why are you always thinking

00:15:56.200 it's like,

00:15:56.980 why could it be

00:15:57.680 the simplest explanation,

00:15:59.620 which is there are just

00:16:00.480 a lot of anti-Semites

00:16:01.640 in the world

00:16:02.120 and they're just

00:16:02.820 on the platform.

00:16:03.900 Why can't you go

00:16:04.520 for the simplest explanation?

00:16:06.640 Well,

00:16:07.720 they don't look real,

00:16:09.320 number one,

00:16:10.700 or even close.

00:16:12.540 They're not even really good.

00:16:13.720 They don't seem to be

00:16:15.140 even a good representation

00:16:16.240 of somebody pretending

00:16:17.360 to be one.

00:16:19.200 But the other thing is

00:16:20.220 this is normal business.

00:16:22.740 Did he know that?

00:16:24.180 Did he know that

00:16:25.120 in the first Trump election

00:16:26.600 there were in fact,

00:16:28.160 maybe the second,

00:16:29.380 there were in fact

00:16:30.160 a paid army of trolls

00:16:31.560 whose job it was

00:16:33.000 to come after people like me.

00:16:34.580 They've already come after me

00:16:36.180 twice this year,

00:16:38.620 and they come in waves,

00:16:40.600 and they all come at once,

00:16:41.700 and they all say

00:16:42.260 the same things,

00:16:43.280 and then they all disappear.

00:16:46.080 And it's been confirmed.

00:16:47.580 We know how it was funded,

00:16:49.740 and we know who was behind it.

00:16:52.360 There's no question

00:16:53.360 that it happened, etc.

00:16:55.360 So what are the odds

00:16:57.800 that they're doing

00:16:58.400 that trick again?

00:17:00.000 Well, apparently

00:17:00.500 it's perfectly legal.

00:17:02.460 Nobody went to jail for it.

00:17:03.680 They talked about it

00:17:04.800 in public.

00:17:06.240 So, yeah.

00:17:07.400 I would say

00:17:08.240 it's obvious

00:17:09.000 that somebody's paying somebody

00:17:10.400 to pretend to be anti-Semitic.

00:17:12.160 Lots of people.

00:17:13.260 Because they all have

00:17:13.940 their same little arguments.

00:17:16.960 And again,

00:17:17.640 I'm not going to tell you

00:17:18.360 how I can tell

00:17:18.960 that you're not real,

00:17:19.800 but you've got to tell.

00:17:24.140 All right.

00:17:27.540 There's a Chinese dissident.

00:17:29.260 You've probably heard of him.

00:17:30.040 He's an artist named

00:17:31.060 Ai Weiwei.

00:17:34.940 Really?

00:17:35.840 His first name

00:17:36.920 is spelled A-I.

00:17:39.900 Is that the best name

00:17:41.980 for an artist in 2024?

00:17:44.960 His first name is A-I.

00:17:47.960 Ai Weiwei.

00:17:48.960 Ai Weiwei?

00:17:50.320 Yeah, I'm pronouncing

00:17:51.380 his name wrong,

00:17:52.020 and I apologize.

00:17:53.460 Anyway, he says

00:17:54.260 that China's,

00:17:56.840 that U.S.

00:17:57.780 has basically become

00:17:58.740 the same as China

00:17:59.540 in terms of its

00:18:00.460 political censorship.

00:18:03.220 He says,

00:18:03.740 I grew up within

00:18:04.360 the heavy political censorship

00:18:05.580 in China.

00:18:06.260 Today, in the West,

00:18:07.400 you're doing exactly the same.

00:18:10.260 Does that sound fair?

00:18:13.080 It's exactly the same.

00:18:15.000 Yep.

00:18:16.260 Yep, it is.

00:18:17.460 It's exactly the same.

00:18:19.380 To me,

00:18:19.960 I don't see any difference at all.

00:18:21.800 It's state-sponsored.

00:18:23.260 Now,

00:18:24.120 you may have seen me

00:18:25.680 on the X platform

00:18:26.620 say that we should have

00:18:27.420 a constitutional convention,

00:18:29.040 and of course,

00:18:29.820 you dismissed it as crazy,

00:18:31.340 right?

00:18:32.580 Crazy.

00:18:34.120 Now, here's what

00:18:35.000 I should have clarified.

00:18:36.640 I'm not talking about

00:18:37.960 removing anything

00:18:39.780 that's in the Constitution.

00:18:41.980 Keep it all.

00:18:43.840 No subtractions.

00:18:45.780 Let me say that again.

00:18:47.140 I do want

00:18:47.800 a constitutional convention,

00:18:49.720 but no subtractions.

00:18:51.340 We need to add a few things

00:18:54.720 because of something

00:18:57.760 that could not have been foreseen

00:18:59.400 when the founders

00:19:00.080 put it together.

00:19:01.120 What they couldn't have foreseen

00:19:02.680 is the level of

00:19:04.260 internet communication

00:19:05.420 and coordination

00:19:06.500 which allows a whole bunch

00:19:08.420 of bad behavior to happen.

00:19:10.440 Essentially,

00:19:11.120 everything that Molly Hemingway

00:19:12.720 just mentioned

00:19:13.500 is all the stuff

00:19:15.220 that you can do

00:19:15.860 because of big money

00:19:17.000 and big communication

00:19:19.400 and organization.

00:19:20.880 So it wasn't really

00:19:21.800 something that you could do

00:19:22.780 so easily

00:19:23.340 when the Constitution

00:19:24.460 was founded.

00:19:25.660 So, let me give you

00:19:26.420 an example.

00:19:27.860 In my view,

00:19:28.620 we should add

00:19:29.100 to the Constitution

00:19:30.000 that not only

00:19:31.740 is there free speech,

00:19:33.740 but our government

00:19:34.900 cannot use

00:19:37.400 outside non-governmental

00:19:39.240 sources

00:19:39.760 to further

00:19:41.180 censorship.

00:19:44.080 Don't you think

00:19:44.900 that needs to be added?

00:19:45.720 Because right now

00:19:47.280 it's completely legal

00:19:48.340 for the government

00:19:49.040 to massively

00:19:50.060 censor you.

00:19:51.700 They just have to

00:19:52.440 put pressure on

00:19:53.520 private companies

00:19:54.900 to do it.

00:19:55.420 It's the same thing.

00:19:57.420 So, that's something

00:19:58.420 that could not have

00:19:59.160 been contemplated

00:19:59.960 when the founders

00:20:00.640 put the Constitution

00:20:01.480 together.

00:20:02.300 Am I right?

00:20:03.540 How would they ever

00:20:04.660 have been able

00:20:05.080 to contemplate that?

00:20:06.580 Now, if they could

00:20:07.540 have contemplated it,

00:20:09.260 do you think

00:20:09.760 that they might have

00:20:10.360 been inclined to say,

00:20:11.340 oh, you can't cheat?

00:20:13.140 You know, you can't do it

00:20:14.000 by using private companies

00:20:15.220 to do your bidding.

00:20:18.620 Oh, there you go.

00:20:19.560 Mark Levin is ahead of me.

00:20:20.920 He's got some amendments

00:20:22.020 he's looking for

00:20:22.820 for the Constitution.

00:20:23.740 I guess he wrote

00:20:24.220 a book about it.

00:20:25.340 But to me,

00:20:25.880 that's an obvious one.

00:20:27.300 Is there anybody

00:20:27.820 who would disagree

00:20:28.580 with that being clarified

00:20:30.760 and added to the Constitution?

00:20:32.680 Any disagreement

00:20:33.460 to say that you can't

00:20:35.340 use private companies

00:20:36.440 just to do the thing

00:20:37.300 that you're not allowed

00:20:37.880 to do directly?

00:20:41.220 And that's probably

00:20:42.480 not the only one.

00:20:44.000 Here's another one.

00:20:45.620 How about a constitutional

00:20:46.560 requirement that you

00:20:48.080 can't use computers

00:20:49.520 to count your votes

00:20:51.560 and you have to do

00:20:52.920 your elections on one day

00:20:54.240 and have a result

00:20:56.740 in one day?

00:20:58.480 What about that?

00:21:00.180 Because that's something

00:21:01.380 that, again,

00:21:02.620 the founders probably

00:21:03.880 never imagined

00:21:04.780 that there would be

00:21:06.400 mass mailing of ballots

00:21:07.900 and, you know,

00:21:10.360 a vote from home.

00:21:11.240 That probably was

00:21:11.940 never contemplated.

00:21:12.780 So now that it is

00:21:14.680 a reality,

00:21:15.700 we could just add

00:21:16.740 a little juice to it

00:21:18.700 and say,

00:21:19.360 don't do that.

00:21:21.060 Now,

00:21:21.840 I think Molly Hemingway

00:21:22.920 stopped short

00:21:23.800 of saying what I'm going

00:21:24.640 to say,

00:21:25.480 but why would you

00:21:26.720 design an election system

00:21:28.260 the way it's designed

00:21:29.300 right now

00:21:30.000 unless the intention

00:21:31.720 was to cheat?

00:21:34.160 Am I right?

00:21:36.280 You know,

00:21:36.680 design is destiny.

00:21:38.400 You know,

00:21:38.600 I spent much

00:21:39.420 of my working career

00:21:40.260 before I became

00:21:41.060 a cartoonist

00:21:41.920 surrounded by engineers.

00:21:43.760 So I worked

00:21:44.540 in big companies

00:21:45.220 where I was just,

00:21:45.980 you know,

00:21:46.120 I was all techies

00:21:46.760 and engineers.

00:21:47.720 And when you're

00:21:48.260 around engineers,

00:21:50.060 you start seeing

00:21:50.960 things as systems.

00:21:52.740 You don't see them

00:21:53.540 as this one thing.

00:21:55.180 You always say to yourself,

00:21:56.300 if I replace

00:21:57.020 this piece of equipment,

00:21:58.520 is that going to break

00:21:59.520 something else

00:22:00.140 in the system?

00:22:01.060 So you're just

00:22:01.560 always seeing the system.

00:22:02.460 If you look at

00:22:04.660 the system designed

00:22:05.680 for our elections,

00:22:06.840 they're designed

00:22:07.620 to cheat.

00:22:08.680 They're not designed

00:22:09.880 poorly.

00:22:12.600 That would be different.

00:22:14.180 If they were designed

00:22:15.060 poorly and somebody

00:22:16.140 found a clever way

00:22:17.160 to cheat,

00:22:17.940 I'd say,

00:22:18.480 ooh,

00:22:18.820 maybe tighten that

00:22:19.600 up a little bit.

00:22:20.620 But our systems

00:22:21.440 are not designed

00:22:22.300 poorly.

00:22:23.620 They are intentionally

00:22:24.880 designed for one

00:22:26.460 purpose that I can say.

00:22:28.500 If you were from

00:22:29.460 outer space

00:22:30.220 and somebody said,

00:22:31.680 you don't know

00:22:32.040 anything about America,

00:22:33.500 you don't know

00:22:33.940 anything about humans,

00:22:35.420 but just look

00:22:35.980 at their system.

00:22:37.420 Was it designed

00:22:38.380 to make cheating easier

00:22:39.660 or was it designed

00:22:41.180 to eliminate cheating?

00:22:42.520 What do you think

00:22:42.980 the alien from

00:22:44.040 the advanced planet

00:22:45.200 would say about that?

00:22:46.940 You already know.

00:22:48.460 It is intentionally

00:22:50.080 and obviously

00:22:51.500 designed for cheating.

00:22:55.860 I don't think

00:22:56.720 there's even

00:22:57.120 the slightest doubt

00:22:58.040 about that.

00:22:59.120 And both parties.

00:23:00.660 If you think

00:23:01.720 I'm blaming

00:23:02.140 the Democrats,

00:23:03.100 nope,

00:23:03.980 nope,

00:23:04.860 not blaming

00:23:05.600 the Democrats.

00:23:06.800 It's obvious

00:23:07.580 that both parties

00:23:08.300 have some kind

00:23:08.960 of interest

00:23:09.420 in keeping it

00:23:10.440 a non-democratic

00:23:12.520 process.

00:23:13.540 It's obviously

00:23:14.400 not a democratic

00:23:15.860 process.

00:23:18.120 All right,

00:23:18.960 as you know,

00:23:20.120 Gina Carano,

00:23:21.920 actress who was

00:23:23.040 fired from

00:23:24.220 the Disney World

00:23:25.220 because of her

00:23:26.360 conservative points

00:23:28.300 of view

00:23:28.680 and they

00:23:29.640 misinterpreted

00:23:30.780 some things

00:23:31.180 she said

00:23:31.580 to give themselves

00:23:32.920 an excuse

00:23:33.540 to part ways

00:23:34.300 with her.

00:23:35.160 But as you

00:23:36.220 might also know,

00:23:36.980 Elon Musk

00:23:37.460 had offered

00:23:37.880 that if anybody

00:23:39.120 lost their job

00:23:40.280 or were harmed

00:23:41.940 by something

00:23:42.600 they said

00:23:43.060 in their free speech

00:23:44.080 capacity on the

00:23:45.840 X platform,

00:23:46.560 that he would put

00:23:47.180 some legal money

00:23:48.840 behind your defense

00:23:49.820 or your offense

00:23:50.960 in this case

00:23:51.600 to go after

00:23:52.760 anybody who fired

00:23:54.160 you for your

00:23:54.740 political free speech

00:23:56.600 on X.

00:23:58.240 And so he's

00:23:58.900 backing her

00:23:59.720 lawsuit.

00:24:01.160 I think it's

00:24:01.780 defamation.

00:24:03.500 I think.

00:24:04.640 Is it defamation

00:24:05.460 or is it unfair

00:24:06.640 firing or something?

00:24:08.180 I don't know.

00:24:09.120 But it's all

00:24:09.880 sketchy and

00:24:11.640 Musk is backing

00:24:12.720 him.

00:24:13.480 But here's the

00:24:14.300 interesting thing.

00:24:18.040 Musk got

00:24:19.020 anonymously,

00:24:19.920 somebody sent them

00:24:20.800 an internal

00:24:21.980 Disney document

00:24:22.940 that confesses

00:24:25.660 their internal

00:24:28.260 plan to

00:24:30.160 discriminate

00:24:30.660 against white

00:24:31.360 people.

00:24:32.720 It's actually

00:24:33.580 in writing.

00:24:35.180 Now the way

00:24:35.800 they say it is

00:24:36.620 your movie

00:24:38.280 must have

00:24:39.040 this much

00:24:39.640 diversity.

00:24:41.160 Same thing.

00:24:42.840 Your script

00:24:43.840 must have

00:24:45.180 this much

00:24:45.760 diversity,

00:24:46.900 et cetera.

00:24:47.560 So write down

00:24:48.080 they've got

00:24:48.560 a number of

00:24:49.080 categories

00:24:49.580 that must be

00:24:50.860 diverse in a

00:24:51.580 certain amount.

00:24:51.940 There's only one

00:24:52.680 way you can

00:24:53.120 get there.

00:24:54.200 You have to

00:24:54.680 discriminate

00:24:55.120 against white

00:24:56.040 people to

00:24:57.240 get to that

00:24:58.000 point.

00:24:58.920 So not only

00:25:00.140 is it in

00:25:00.520 writing, it's

00:25:02.620 in really clear

00:25:03.540 writing.

00:25:05.020 No ambiguity

00:25:05.720 at all.

00:25:06.120 There it is.

00:25:06.580 Somebody's

00:25:06.920 posting it on

00:25:07.480 the local's

00:25:07.960 platform.

00:25:08.960 On the local's

00:25:09.640 platform they

00:25:10.200 can post images.

00:25:11.500 So when I talk

00:25:12.140 about stuff,

00:25:13.220 often the image

00:25:13.940 will appear in

00:25:14.660 the comments.

00:25:15.600 One more reason

00:25:16.240 to be a local

00:25:17.060 subscriber.

00:25:19.740 Anyway,

00:25:20.060 here's what I

00:25:23.160 think.

00:25:24.420 There's also

00:25:25.080 separately an

00:25:25.780 article about

00:25:27.260 how companies

00:25:27.960 are rebranding

00:25:29.500 their DEI

00:25:30.640 because they

00:25:31.860 know that they

00:25:32.440 have some

00:25:32.960 legal risk

00:25:33.980 for discriminating

00:25:35.440 so overtly

00:25:36.480 against white

00:25:37.240 men in

00:25:37.780 particular.

00:25:39.080 And so they

00:25:40.160 don't want to

00:25:40.540 say it directly

00:25:41.080 and they know

00:25:41.600 that DEI has

00:25:42.320 gotten such a

00:25:42.900 bad name,

00:25:44.020 they're literally

00:25:44.760 just going to

00:25:45.380 change the

00:25:45.900 name.

00:25:46.260 Isn't that

00:25:48.600 wild?

00:25:49.720 And companies

00:25:50.280 are saying it

00:25:51.640 overtly.

00:25:52.660 Oh yeah,

00:25:53.120 DEI has got

00:25:54.040 a bad name

00:25:54.800 so we're just

00:25:55.480 going to hide

00:25:56.240 it.

00:25:57.020 We'll just

00:25:57.500 build it into

00:25:58.180 everything so

00:25:58.760 it's just

00:25:59.100 everywhere but

00:25:59.780 it doesn't

00:26:00.080 have a name.

00:26:02.800 And ESG

00:26:03.860 is the same

00:26:04.220 thing.

00:26:04.860 Now let me

00:26:05.280 ask you this.

00:26:08.380 If you have

00:26:09.280 to change the

00:26:10.080 name of

00:26:10.540 something and

00:26:11.800 pretend you're

00:26:12.460 not doing it

00:26:13.300 because the

00:26:14.780 public is

00:26:15.340 incensed that

00:26:16.520 you would be

00:26:16.920 such horrible

00:26:17.920 horrible turds

00:26:18.920 that you would

00:26:19.380 be involved

00:26:19.920 in such a

00:26:20.480 thing, maybe

00:26:21.900 you should

00:26:22.240 rethink what

00:26:22.820 you're doing.

00:26:24.120 If you have

00:26:24.940 to hide it

00:26:25.760 from the

00:26:26.200 public, maybe

00:26:27.880 you should

00:26:28.380 rethink it.

00:26:29.600 Let me say

00:26:30.140 that again.

00:26:31.160 You're a big

00:26:31.640 corporation with

00:26:32.500 stockholders.

00:26:33.500 If you ever

00:26:34.400 have a fucking

00:26:35.220 meeting in

00:26:36.360 which you say

00:26:37.060 maybe we

00:26:37.940 should hide

00:26:38.620 what we're

00:26:39.100 doing from

00:26:39.600 the public,

00:26:40.460 you already

00:26:41.640 have made a

00:26:42.440 gigantic fucking

00:26:43.820 mistake.

00:26:45.340 And if

00:26:46.440 you're even

00:26:46.860 spending one

00:26:47.620 second talking

00:26:48.460 about how to

00:26:49.080 hide it from

00:26:49.700 the public,

00:26:51.100 oh my god,

00:26:52.320 you're lost.

00:26:53.480 So what I'd

00:26:54.060 like to see,

00:26:55.320 and normally I

00:26:56.580 would hate to

00:26:57.320 say this,

00:26:58.240 but some big

00:26:58.900 corporations have

00:26:59.700 to be destroyed

00:27:00.520 before anything's

00:27:02.700 going to happen.

00:27:03.640 And the reason

00:27:04.180 they have to be

00:27:04.680 destroyed is that

00:27:06.080 nothing short of

00:27:06.800 it will change

00:27:07.380 anything.

00:27:08.320 They actually

00:27:09.100 have to go out

00:27:09.640 of business.

00:27:10.620 And maybe

00:27:11.080 Disney would be

00:27:11.800 the first one.

00:27:12.380 I think they

00:27:14.640 have enough

00:27:15.000 money that

00:27:15.400 they can stay

00:27:16.000 in business.

00:27:16.720 But I'd like

00:27:17.220 to see somebody

00:27:17.940 on the scale

00:27:19.220 of Disney

00:27:19.820 literally just

00:27:20.620 be put out

00:27:21.120 of business.

00:27:21.760 Because that's

00:27:22.360 the size of

00:27:22.960 the crime.

00:27:24.420 The size of

00:27:25.220 the crime is

00:27:26.440 you should be

00:27:26.920 out of business.

00:27:29.000 That's the

00:27:29.620 size of it.

00:27:30.620 It would be

00:27:31.320 like we found

00:27:32.020 out tomorrow

00:27:33.360 that Disney

00:27:34.580 was a secret

00:27:35.860 pedophile ring.

00:27:37.100 I don't think

00:27:37.720 they are.

00:27:38.620 But imagine

00:27:39.280 you found out

00:27:39.940 that tomorrow.

00:27:40.500 would you say

00:27:41.420 to yourself

00:27:41.840 oh well

00:27:43.220 once you get

00:27:44.020 rid of the

00:27:44.300 pedophile problem

00:27:45.500 the rest of

00:27:47.300 your business

00:27:47.720 is pretty good

00:27:48.840 so we don't

00:27:49.500 want people

00:27:49.860 to lose

00:27:50.200 any jobs.

00:27:52.400 So just the

00:27:52.940 fact that you

00:27:53.520 are a massive

00:27:54.240 pedophile ring

00:27:55.020 they're not.

00:27:55.900 I'm just using

00:27:56.560 this as an

00:27:57.080 example.

00:27:59.180 Would you

00:27:59.720 ever say

00:28:00.260 to yourself

00:28:01.620 they should

00:28:02.000 stay in

00:28:02.400 business?

00:28:03.680 Absolutely

00:28:04.120 not.

00:28:04.900 You should

00:28:05.260 say every

00:28:05.820 single person

00:28:06.500 should lose

00:28:07.180 every penny

00:28:07.720 they have

00:28:08.060 involved with

00:28:08.600 that company.

00:28:09.080 well you

00:28:10.560 would?

00:28:11.240 Okay you're

00:28:11.800 a good

00:28:12.020 libertarian.

00:28:16.520 But I

00:28:17.080 would say

00:28:17.360 this is

00:28:17.740 as bad.

00:28:19.440 Racial

00:28:19.800 discrimination

00:28:20.580 overtly

00:28:21.840 right in

00:28:22.260 front of

00:28:22.540 the world

00:28:22.940 it's in

00:28:26.000 the same

00:28:26.300 class.

00:28:27.580 I would

00:28:27.900 say it's

00:28:28.300 equally

00:28:28.880 completely

00:28:29.900 evil.

00:28:31.160 One of

00:28:31.540 them maybe

00:28:31.940 is more

00:28:32.420 of a

00:28:32.720 emotionally

00:28:34.180 we would

00:28:34.640 say there's

00:28:35.000 a bigger

00:28:35.400 victimhood

00:28:36.000 with children

00:28:36.960 and stuff.

00:28:37.340 but I

00:28:38.740 would say

00:28:39.040 they're

00:28:39.220 both like

00:28:39.700 a 10

00:28:40.020 and a

00:28:40.340 10

00:28:40.600 in

00:28:40.900 evil.

00:28:41.820 It's

00:28:42.040 10

00:28:42.220 and a

00:28:42.460 10

00:28:42.640 so you

00:28:43.180 can't get

00:28:43.480 worse than

00:28:43.840 10.

00:28:44.400 There's

00:28:44.660 no 15.

00:28:46.580 All right

00:28:47.060 so good

00:28:48.160 luck to

00:28:48.800 Gina on

00:28:49.260 that.

00:28:52.660 Let's

00:28:53.180 see according

00:28:53.600 to Axios

00:28:54.860 that's the

00:28:56.620 punchline

00:28:57.120 according to

00:28:58.560 Axios.

00:29:00.580 Did

00:29:01.100 everybody get

00:29:01.560 the joke?

00:29:03.700 Axios is

00:29:04.700 so non

00:29:05.300 credible as a

00:29:06.220 news source

00:29:06.780 that whatever

00:29:07.840 follows

00:29:08.440 according to

00:29:09.180 Axios is

00:29:10.120 like you

00:29:11.720 could actually

00:29:12.100 do the

00:29:12.480 punchline

00:29:12.960 first and

00:29:14.620 then you

00:29:14.960 can do

00:29:15.300 the setup

00:29:16.160 punchline

00:29:17.740 according to

00:29:19.080 Axios.

00:29:21.740 The United

00:29:22.580 States economy

00:29:23.260 grew faster

00:29:23.920 than any

00:29:24.520 other large

00:29:25.060 advanced

00:29:25.420 economy.

00:29:26.380 Wow,

00:29:27.000 by a wide

00:29:27.480 margin.

00:29:28.500 It's not

00:29:28.920 even close.

00:29:30.060 The U.S.

00:29:30.540 economy is

00:29:31.020 killing all

00:29:31.620 these other

00:29:32.180 smaller economies.

00:29:33.300 So do you

00:29:35.380 think that

00:29:35.760 Axios,

00:29:36.360 which is

00:29:36.640 clearly a

00:29:37.520 Democrat

00:29:37.940 leaning

00:29:38.240 organization,

00:29:39.700 do you

00:29:40.060 think that

00:29:40.360 they covered

00:29:40.880 everything that

00:29:41.540 you need to

00:29:41.960 know about

00:29:42.860 this story or

00:29:43.620 did they just

00:29:44.120 put out a

00:29:44.560 little piece

00:29:46.200 that is

00:29:46.760 coincidentally

00:29:47.500 really good

00:29:48.120 for the

00:29:48.580 incumbent?

00:29:50.120 Joe Biden.

00:29:51.160 Oh,

00:29:51.880 well,

00:29:52.500 of all the

00:29:53.160 things you

00:29:53.540 could have

00:29:53.900 covered today,

00:29:55.000 why did you

00:29:55.680 dig so deep

00:29:56.400 to find this

00:29:57.040 little statistic

00:29:57.820 and build a

00:29:58.500 story around

00:29:59.040 it?

00:29:59.680 Is it because

00:30:00.440 we needed

00:30:00.920 to know?

00:30:02.240 Is it because

00:30:03.020 Joe Biden

00:30:03.620 would look

00:30:04.080 better if

00:30:04.520 he did

00:30:04.780 it?

00:30:05.920 Now,

00:30:06.780 is it

00:30:07.500 newsworthy?

00:30:08.380 Absolutely.

00:30:10.200 Should Axios

00:30:11.020 cover something

00:30:11.760 like this?

00:30:12.420 Yes.

00:30:13.580 Everybody

00:30:13.980 else should

00:30:14.520 too.

00:30:16.080 Is there

00:30:16.480 anything left

00:30:17.040 out?

00:30:18.560 Yes.

00:30:20.720 Yes.

00:30:21.840 There are a

00:30:22.360 few things

00:30:22.780 left out.

00:30:24.420 Number one,

00:30:25.780 what exactly,

00:30:26.660 which part of

00:30:27.560 Bidenomics

00:30:28.280 made it

00:30:28.680 happen?

00:30:28.940 What did

00:30:31.780 he do?

00:30:32.500 Was it

00:30:32.940 the mumbling?

00:30:35.020 Was it

00:30:35.560 the forgetting

00:30:36.340 the name

00:30:36.840 of the

00:30:37.120 president of

00:30:37.840 France?

00:30:38.940 Was it

00:30:39.380 starting the

00:30:39.940 wars?

00:30:40.760 It probably

00:30:41.160 was the

00:30:41.560 wars,

00:30:41.900 wasn't it?

00:30:43.040 Yeah.

00:30:43.560 I'll bet

00:30:43.800 it was the

00:30:44.200 war.

00:30:45.120 Because if

00:30:45.760 you fund

00:30:46.720 anything and

00:30:48.320 run up debt

00:30:49.060 doing it,

00:30:50.180 your GDP

00:30:50.860 looks awesome.

00:30:52.820 So all you

00:30:53.520 have to do

00:30:53.800 is run up

00:30:54.260 your inflation,

00:30:55.160 although to

00:30:55.540 be fair,

00:30:56.680 the inflation

00:30:57.200 would be in

00:30:57.720 the other

00:30:58.020 countries as

00:30:58.640 well.

00:30:58.940 So that

00:30:59.180 doesn't

00:30:59.500 explain the

00:30:59.980 difference.

00:31:00.860 But it

00:31:01.340 does get

00:31:01.740 your GDP

00:31:02.400 above zero.

00:31:03.880 I mean,

00:31:04.080 this would

00:31:04.340 be a

00:31:04.580 different story

00:31:05.180 if ours

00:31:05.580 was zero

00:31:06.120 and the

00:31:06.960 others were

00:31:07.460 slightly

00:31:07.840 negative.

00:31:08.600 We wouldn't

00:31:09.080 be bragging

00:31:09.580 about it

00:31:09.980 so much.

00:31:11.200 But if

00:31:11.960 you add

00:31:12.260 inflation to

00:31:13.040 it,

00:31:13.820 our zero

00:31:14.520 becomes two

00:31:15.240 point something

00:31:15.820 and the

00:31:16.220 others are

00:31:16.620 not as

00:31:16.980 good.

00:31:19.420 But can

00:31:21.420 somebody in

00:31:23.180 the alleged

00:31:23.960 news business

00:31:25.200 ask somebody

00:31:27.340 who is a

00:31:28.120 Democrat,

00:31:29.660 what part

00:31:30.720 of Bidenomics

00:31:31.660 made the

00:31:32.580 GDP go

00:31:33.340 up?

00:31:34.660 What part?

00:31:36.320 I'm pretty

00:31:37.060 sure it's just

00:31:37.600 funding wars.

00:31:39.540 And that's

00:31:40.280 what they're

00:31:40.580 bragging about?

00:31:41.740 If you leave

00:31:42.460 out, it's

00:31:42.940 because we

00:31:43.420 funded wars.

00:31:44.260 I don't know

00:31:44.580 if it is,

00:31:45.280 but it seems

00:31:45.840 like a good

00:31:46.320 hypothesis.

00:31:46.880 And what

00:31:48.640 if it's

00:31:49.380 just that

00:31:49.800 the American

00:31:50.440 financial

00:31:51.800 engine is

00:31:52.420 just incredible?

00:31:54.380 What if

00:31:54.940 it's as

00:31:55.340 simple as,

00:31:56.500 you know

00:31:56.740 what?

00:31:57.540 You can

00:31:57.920 look everywhere

00:31:58.460 in the world

00:31:59.040 and the

00:31:59.460 United States

00:32:00.220 financial

00:32:01.060 engine and

00:32:01.740 our

00:32:01.940 entrepreneurs

00:32:02.440 are just

00:32:03.440 better than

00:32:03.880 others.

00:32:05.200 What if

00:32:05.560 it's just

00:32:05.860 that?

00:32:08.340 Which, by

00:32:09.020 the way,

00:32:09.340 would be a

00:32:09.780 tremendous

00:32:10.040 story.

00:32:11.300 I'd love

00:32:11.920 if that were

00:32:12.360 the case.

00:32:14.780 You think

00:32:15.160 it's AI

00:32:15.820 and NVIDIA

00:32:17.100 stock?

00:32:19.120 But AI

00:32:19.780 is not

00:32:20.100 creating a

00:32:20.520 lot of

00:32:20.740 GDP yet,

00:32:21.480 is it?

00:32:23.120 Not yet.

00:32:26.080 AI might

00:32:26.960 actually reduce

00:32:27.700 GDP in the

00:32:28.580 short run.

00:32:30.120 It will

00:32:30.620 increase the

00:32:31.180 value of

00:32:32.040 companies,

00:32:32.680 but that

00:32:32.920 doesn't show

00:32:33.380 up in the

00:32:33.700 GDP.

00:32:34.940 So the

00:32:35.240 GDP should

00:32:36.120 show some

00:32:37.200 layoffs from

00:32:38.420 AI in the

00:32:39.280 short run.

00:32:40.160 In the long

00:32:40.680 run, one

00:32:41.080 imagines it

00:32:42.140 pays off.

00:32:44.180 All right,

00:32:44.860 let's talk

00:32:45.260 about that

00:32:45.620 border bill

00:32:46.220 that's still

00:32:46.620 a mystery.

00:32:47.760 As I

00:32:48.460 asked, I

00:32:49.240 said the

00:32:49.540 other day

00:32:49.840 that something's

00:32:50.400 going on,

00:32:51.560 there's something

00:32:52.060 about the

00:32:52.540 way the

00:32:52.900 border bill

00:32:53.380 was created

00:32:54.020 or who's

00:32:54.560 behind it

00:32:55.200 that is

00:32:56.380 not cool,

00:32:57.780 and it's

00:32:58.140 also not

00:32:58.720 ordinary,

00:32:59.800 and it's

00:33:00.100 not business

00:33:00.720 as usual.

00:33:01.640 There's

00:33:01.960 something else

00:33:02.600 going on.

00:33:04.100 And Elon

00:33:04.640 Musk weighed

00:33:05.520 in on that

00:33:06.000 same point

00:33:06.680 and asked

00:33:07.640 who wrote

00:33:08.180 it.

00:33:09.540 Now,

00:33:10.140 allegedly,

00:33:11.140 this Chris

00:33:12.000 Murphy guy

00:33:12.800 was a

00:33:14.320 co-author,

00:33:15.180 and he

00:33:15.600 says, I'm

00:33:16.020 the co-author.

00:33:17.640 And I

00:33:18.280 say to

00:33:18.800 myself,

00:33:19.560 seriously,

00:33:20.320 what does

00:33:20.640 author mean

00:33:21.360 to you?

00:33:23.320 What does

00:33:23.880 that word

00:33:24.420 mean, that

00:33:25.520 you're the

00:33:25.880 co-author?

00:33:28.500 Does that

00:33:29.140 mean you

00:33:29.440 sat there

00:33:29.860 with your

00:33:30.220 laptop and

00:33:31.520 you wrote

00:33:31.920 the first

00:33:32.360 draft?

00:33:33.280 Because that's

00:33:34.000 what, in

00:33:34.360 my world,

00:33:34.900 that's what

00:33:35.200 an author

00:33:35.560 means.

00:33:36.740 There could

00:33:37.340 be an

00:33:37.640 editor after

00:33:38.260 that who

00:33:38.720 fixes it for

00:33:39.520 you.

00:33:40.540 But whoever

00:33:41.040 writes the

00:33:41.540 first draft

00:33:42.200 is the

00:33:42.560 author.

00:33:43.220 Do you

00:33:43.380 think Chris

00:33:44.240 Murphy wrote

00:33:44.760 the first

00:33:45.140 draft of

00:33:45.540 this thing?

00:33:48.800 No.

00:33:50.200 No.

00:33:50.880 It's always

00:33:51.420 somebody else.

00:33:52.900 It's always

00:33:53.360 somebody who's

00:33:53.920 an expert at

00:33:54.660 it, some

00:33:55.020 lawyer,

00:33:55.700 lobbyist,

00:33:57.080 somebody.

00:33:58.420 But here we

00:33:59.400 have this

00:33:59.880 thing that is

00:34:00.800 like the

00:34:01.100 biggest topic,

00:34:02.320 and the

00:34:02.840 person who

00:34:03.360 says he's

00:34:03.820 the author

00:34:04.200 is obviously

00:34:04.820 lying about

00:34:05.520 it.

00:34:05.720 We don't

00:34:06.760 even know

00:34:07.140 who wrote

00:34:07.540 it.

00:34:08.600 We don't

00:34:09.200 even know

00:34:09.680 who wrote

00:34:10.200 it.

00:34:11.520 Now, get

00:34:12.080 back to

00:34:12.540 Molly

00:34:12.860 Hemingway's

00:34:13.540 summary of

00:34:14.400 the whole

00:34:15.260 enterprise

00:34:17.080 being

00:34:18.520 corrupt.

00:34:20.480 There's

00:34:21.040 something going

00:34:21.700 on here,

00:34:22.740 but it

00:34:23.240 gets deeper.

00:34:26.020 So Kyle

00:34:26.920 Bass points

00:34:27.680 this out.

00:34:28.960 He says,

00:34:29.640 the imbeciles

00:34:30.280 writing the

00:34:30.740 border bill

00:34:31.320 snuck this

00:34:32.400 beauty into

00:34:32.980 the text.

00:34:34.160 Now, try to

00:34:34.740 hold on to

00:34:35.240 the top of

00:34:35.700 your head.

00:34:37.100 Just try to

00:34:38.080 hold the

00:34:38.460 head on,

00:34:39.260 because it's

00:34:39.700 going to

00:34:40.020 explode.

00:34:41.760 And keep

00:34:42.280 in mind that

00:34:42.900 it took

00:34:43.240 until today

00:34:43.980 for you to

00:34:44.460 hear it.

00:34:45.400 It took

00:34:45.900 until today

00:34:46.880 for you to

00:34:48.260 hear it.

00:34:48.980 And did it

00:34:49.500 come from

00:34:49.880 our government?

00:34:51.340 No, it

00:34:51.720 came from

00:34:52.080 Kyle Bass,

00:34:53.120 who apparently

00:34:53.720 took the

00:34:54.240 time to

00:34:54.660 look at it.

00:34:56.140 Just listen

00:34:56.960 to this and

00:34:57.520 see if your

00:34:57.920 head doesn't

00:34:58.380 explode.

00:35:00.620 This is

00:35:01.220 actually in

00:35:01.880 the text of

00:35:02.480 the bill.

00:35:03.480 Quote,

00:35:04.240 aliens from

00:35:05.140 non-contiguous

00:35:06.260 countries,

00:35:07.100 in other

00:35:07.420 words, not

00:35:08.000 Mexico,

00:35:09.660 non-contiguous

00:35:10.520 countries,

00:35:11.440 shall not be

00:35:12.460 included in

00:35:13.980 the sum of

00:35:15.060 aliens

00:35:15.860 encountered.

00:35:19.520 What?

00:35:22.860 It's a

00:35:23.800 border bill

00:35:24.680 for which I

00:35:26.400 understand 85%

00:35:28.060 to 90% of

00:35:29.080 all the people

00:35:29.600 coming across

00:35:30.400 are not from

00:35:31.560 Mexico at the

00:35:32.440 moment.

00:35:33.460 Is that

00:35:33.800 true?

00:35:35.060 Most of

00:35:35.620 them are not

00:35:36.020 from Mexico.

00:35:37.120 But did you

00:35:37.680 know that the

00:35:38.260 border bill

00:35:39.040 had in it

00:35:40.540 that limit

00:35:42.140 that they

00:35:42.540 had doesn't

00:35:44.080 include the

00:35:45.120 non-Mexicans?

00:35:48.500 And that's

00:35:49.200 not the first

00:35:49.900 thing they tell

00:35:50.480 you?

00:35:51.320 That's not the

00:35:51.940 first thing

00:35:52.400 they tell you.

00:35:54.020 You have to

00:35:54.700 wait a few

00:35:55.100 days and Kyle

00:35:56.380 fucking Bass

00:35:57.200 has to tell

00:35:57.760 you that.

00:35:59.160 I love Kyle

00:36:00.060 Bass, by the

00:36:00.600 way.

00:36:00.840 He's great.

00:36:05.060 What?

00:36:06.840 Who wrote

00:36:07.660 that?

00:36:08.740 Who wrote

00:36:09.580 that and

00:36:10.100 why?

00:36:11.120 You're

00:36:11.380 telling me

00:36:11.720 Chris Murphy

00:36:12.340 sat down and

00:36:13.020 said, I

00:36:14.200 think we

00:36:14.620 won't count

00:36:15.240 the people

00:36:15.840 who were

00:36:16.400 the majority

00:36:17.720 of the

00:36:18.460 migrants?

00:36:19.740 Really?

00:36:21.320 What's going

00:36:22.060 on here?

00:36:23.700 What is

00:36:24.460 going on

00:36:25.020 here?

00:36:25.700 And how

00:36:26.240 in the

00:36:26.480 world did

00:36:26.900 some

00:36:27.140 Republicans

00:36:27.680 sign off

00:36:28.360 on it?

00:36:28.760 Because

00:36:30.040 there was

00:36:30.240 a

00:36:30.380 co-author.

00:36:31.840 Some

00:36:32.100 Republicans

00:36:32.620 said yes

00:36:33.180 to that.

00:36:33.960 Lankford?

00:36:34.520 Is that

00:36:34.720 who it was?

00:36:36.780 Did he

00:36:37.360 know it

00:36:37.660 was even

00:36:38.020 in there?

00:36:38.840 Did he

00:36:39.180 even read

00:36:39.620 it?

00:36:40.460 I doubt

00:36:40.920 it.

00:36:41.860 Doesn't

00:36:42.260 look like

00:36:42.660 it.

00:36:43.740 And did

00:36:44.840 you know

00:36:45.260 that the

00:36:45.840 limits on

00:36:46.640 some kind

00:36:48.360 of limit

00:36:48.640 like if

00:36:49.120 5,000

00:36:49.900 people

00:36:50.240 get

00:36:50.740 encountered

00:36:51.280 then there's

00:36:52.340 some kind

00:36:52.780 of change

00:36:53.600 that they

00:36:53.980 make?

00:36:54.860 And the

00:36:55.080 change is

00:36:55.680 they just

00:36:56.080 take all

00:36:56.460 the people

00:36:56.860 and shunt

00:36:57.760 them toward

00:36:58.240 the legal

00:36:58.960 points of

00:36:59.480 entry where

00:37:00.560 all they

00:37:00.920 have to

00:37:01.160 do is

00:37:01.460 say hey

00:37:02.180 how about

00:37:02.480 asylum?

00:37:03.340 And we

00:37:03.640 say sure.

00:37:06.600 In

00:37:07.040 theory it

00:37:07.660 wouldn't

00:37:07.840 change even

00:37:08.460 the flow.

00:37:09.840 It wouldn't

00:37:10.240 change anything.

00:37:12.820 And this

00:37:13.280 somehow got

00:37:14.260 all the way

00:37:14.860 to the

00:37:15.640 final round

00:37:17.540 where they

00:37:18.020 were going

00:37:18.220 to vote

00:37:18.500 at it as

00:37:18.960 part of a

00:37:19.340 comprehensive

00:37:19.840 package including

00:37:21.300 funding for

00:37:22.120 Israel and

00:37:23.520 Ukraine.

00:37:23.880 I don't

00:37:25.800 know how

00:37:26.180 this could

00:37:26.580 be more

00:37:26.940 broken.

00:37:28.360 This is

00:37:29.480 beyond anything

00:37:30.280 I've ever

00:37:30.740 seen.

00:37:31.880 I've never

00:37:32.480 seen anything

00:37:33.060 like this.

00:37:34.820 And even

00:37:35.280 Ted Cruz

00:37:36.000 says Mitch

00:37:37.340 McConnell has

00:37:38.020 to go.

00:37:40.660 Ted Cruz

00:37:41.620 Ted Cruz

00:37:43.980 just said

00:37:45.700 in public

00:37:46.300 unambiguously

00:37:47.720 that the

00:37:48.220 leader of

00:37:48.680 his own

00:37:49.260 Senate,

00:37:50.740 the Republican

00:37:51.200 leader,

00:37:52.400 he has to

00:37:52.960 be fired

00:37:53.680 for this.

00:37:57.460 I tell

00:37:58.140 you,

00:37:58.500 Ted Cruz

00:37:59.200 seems more

00:38:01.880 like a

00:38:02.460 patriot to

00:38:03.180 me every

00:38:03.520 day.

00:38:04.000 He's on

00:38:04.460 my very

00:38:04.920 short list

00:38:05.640 of people

00:38:06.120 who appear

00:38:06.980 to be

00:38:07.280 trying.

00:38:08.920 He appears

00:38:09.780 to be

00:38:10.160 trying to

00:38:11.880 make things

00:38:12.380 better in

00:38:12.840 the country.

00:38:13.600 I do not

00:38:14.620 see that from

00:38:15.420 the rest of

00:38:15.940 our politicians.

00:38:17.480 I just

00:38:18.080 don't see it.

00:38:19.400 And he's

00:38:19.860 very consistent

00:38:20.680 about this.

00:38:21.620 So when

00:38:22.020 his own

00:38:22.500 guy,

00:38:22.920 like not

00:38:23.800 only his

00:38:24.180 own guy,

00:38:24.700 but Mitch

00:38:25.480 frickin

00:38:25.880 McConnell,

00:38:27.260 the most

00:38:27.840 senior

00:38:29.120 important

00:38:29.960 person in

00:38:30.620 the party

00:38:31.000 who's not

00:38:32.060 Trump,

00:38:34.400 Ted Cruz

00:38:34.980 just says

00:38:35.540 plainly,

00:38:37.080 he's got to

00:38:37.520 be fired

00:38:37.980 over this.

00:38:40.060 Good job,

00:38:40.980 Ted Cruz.

00:38:42.660 I love the

00:38:43.400 fact that he

00:38:43.900 didn't say

00:38:45.200 we need to

00:38:45.900 look into

00:38:46.340 it.

00:38:47.380 Or he

00:38:48.040 didn't say

00:38:48.600 maybe somebody

00:38:49.740 should work

00:38:50.180 with Mitch.

00:38:50.640 he said

00:38:51.260 you need

00:38:51.560 to be

00:38:51.840 fired for

00:38:52.320 this.

00:38:53.720 Absolutely.

00:38:55.060 Yeah,

00:38:55.380 Mitch needs

00:38:55.820 to be

00:38:56.080 fired for

00:38:56.600 this.

00:38:57.660 He absolutely

00:38:58.280 needs to

00:38:58.660 be fired.

00:38:59.600 And by the

00:39:00.040 way,

00:39:00.280 it has

00:39:00.480 nothing to

00:39:00.820 do with

00:39:01.040 politics.

00:39:02.820 I'll say

00:39:03.440 it again.

00:39:04.300 Whatever is

00:39:05.040 going on

00:39:05.620 here,

00:39:06.660 everybody

00:39:07.000 involved

00:39:07.480 needs to

00:39:07.820 be fired.

00:39:09.620 So was

00:39:10.600 it Langford

00:39:11.320 and this

00:39:12.800 other?

00:39:13.420 You can't

00:39:14.100 really fire

00:39:14.540 these elected

00:39:15.120 professionals.

00:39:16.140 professionals.

00:39:16.880 But whatever

00:39:18.180 happened is

00:39:19.180 so dirty

00:39:19.860 and so

00:39:20.640 wrong that

00:39:22.140 we need to

00:39:22.920 really dig

00:39:23.780 in to find

00:39:24.300 out what

00:39:24.620 happened

00:39:24.940 here.

00:39:29.620 So Mike

00:39:30.540 Lee,

00:39:31.580 also one

00:39:32.380 of the

00:39:32.720 ones we

00:39:33.420 trust,

00:39:34.420 he said

00:39:34.880 in a post,

00:39:36.020 this feels

00:39:36.520 like an

00:39:36.920 elaborate

00:39:37.300 practical

00:39:37.860 joke.

00:39:38.980 He was

00:39:39.260 talking about

00:39:39.700 the border

00:39:40.120 bill.

00:39:41.560 Doesn't it

00:39:42.180 feel like

00:39:42.520 that?

00:39:43.280 It doesn't

00:39:44.120 look like

00:39:44.620 somebody tried.

00:39:46.140 It doesn't

00:39:47.580 have any,

00:39:48.420 there's no

00:39:48.900 indication that

00:39:49.660 somebody actually

00:39:51.000 tried.

00:39:52.320 It actually

00:39:53.180 looks like it

00:39:53.740 was either a

00:39:54.360 joke, like

00:39:55.880 actually a

00:39:56.600 joke, like

00:39:57.460 literally a

00:39:58.200 joke, like

00:39:59.260 somebody was

00:39:59.920 kidding.

00:40:01.040 That's what it

00:40:01.460 looks like.

00:40:01.860 I don't think

00:40:02.240 that's the

00:40:02.620 truth.

00:40:04.140 But here's

00:40:04.580 another

00:40:04.920 hypothesis.

00:40:08.700 It looks

00:40:09.500 like this

00:40:10.220 is what

00:40:10.620 allows the

00:40:11.480 Senate to

00:40:12.100 separate the

00:40:13.160 spending bill

00:40:13.920 from Ukraine

00:40:14.620 from the

00:40:15.180 border bill.

00:40:17.140 Remember,

00:40:18.500 the Republicans

00:40:19.960 were going to

00:40:20.520 hold up

00:40:20.960 the border

00:40:21.720 bill.

00:40:22.560 I'm sorry,

00:40:23.020 they were

00:40:23.200 going to

00:40:23.400 hold up

00:40:23.800 Ukraine

00:40:24.220 funding

00:40:24.720 until they

00:40:25.580 got a

00:40:26.000 border bill.

00:40:27.040 And then

00:40:27.340 what happened?

00:40:29.260 For some

00:40:30.020 reason,

00:40:30.380 they were

00:40:30.580 given a

00:40:31.040 border bill

00:40:31.580 that absolutely

00:40:32.500 nobody could

00:40:33.220 approve.

00:40:34.700 And now

00:40:35.320 you know

00:40:35.540 what's going

00:40:35.820 to happen?

00:40:37.320 Now they're

00:40:37.940 going to

00:40:38.160 separate them.

00:40:40.640 Why do you

00:40:41.300 think this

00:40:41.660 will be the

00:40:42.040 first time a

00:40:42.700 bill got

00:40:43.060 separated?

00:40:43.600 it's because

00:40:45.480 they think

00:40:45.900 they can

00:40:46.260 get the

00:40:46.600 Ukraine

00:40:46.980 bill

00:40:47.240 funded

00:40:47.720 separately.

00:40:50.180 This is

00:40:50.880 so dirty.

00:40:53.420 To me,

00:40:54.320 it looks

00:40:54.620 obvious.

00:40:55.280 To me,

00:40:55.760 it's obvious

00:40:56.220 that it

00:40:56.640 was a

00:40:56.980 poison pill

00:40:57.680 and that

00:40:58.560 the border

00:40:59.000 part was

00:40:59.580 intended to

00:41:00.380 be killed

00:41:00.860 by both

00:41:01.400 teams so

00:41:03.340 that they

00:41:03.740 could give

00:41:04.080 funding for

00:41:04.720 Ukraine because

00:41:06.300 Ukraine is

00:41:07.180 probably where

00:41:07.840 some of the

00:41:08.300 important members

00:41:09.380 of Congress

00:41:09.940 do their

00:41:10.380 money laundering.

00:41:12.740 It looks

00:41:13.540 like somebody

00:41:15.260 who's making

00:41:15.880 money on

00:41:16.400 Ukraine

00:41:16.900 tanked the

00:41:18.240 border bill

00:41:18.860 for no reason

00:41:20.080 other than

00:41:20.660 to get a

00:41:21.920 clean Ukraine

00:41:22.660 bill because

00:41:23.140 they think

00:41:23.500 they can

00:41:23.860 embarrass

00:41:24.300 Congress

00:41:25.080 into passing

00:41:25.700 it.

00:41:26.760 That's what

00:41:27.380 it looks

00:41:27.720 like.

00:41:28.820 Or it's

00:41:29.520 a practical

00:41:30.260 joke.

00:41:31.500 But I'll

00:41:31.940 tell you

00:41:32.180 what it's

00:41:32.540 definitely

00:41:32.940 not.

00:41:34.100 It's

00:41:34.400 definitely

00:41:34.720 not a

00:41:35.100 bunch of

00:41:35.400 people doing

00:41:35.900 the work

00:41:36.240 of the

00:41:36.460 people.

00:41:37.300 And it's

00:41:37.540 definitely

00:41:37.820 not politics.

00:41:39.380 If you

00:41:39.980 think this

00:41:40.400 is politics

00:41:40.980 that's not

00:41:41.620 what's going

00:41:42.160 on.

00:41:43.380 Whatever

00:41:43.740 we're seeing

00:41:44.440 is not

00:41:44.880 politics at

00:41:46.880 all.

00:41:47.880 Something

00:41:48.400 deeper and

00:41:49.620 dirtier and

00:41:50.520 darker than

00:41:51.120 that.

00:41:51.420 I don't

00:41:51.640 know what

00:41:51.940 it is.

00:41:53.960 So here's

00:41:54.780 my suggestion

00:41:55.400 and I do

00:41:56.000 mean this

00:41:56.460 literally.

00:41:57.220 This is not

00:41:57.660 hyperbole.

00:41:58.640 They need

00:41:59.080 to shut

00:41:59.600 down

00:41:59.840 Congress

00:42:00.340 and just

00:42:01.720 don't do

00:42:02.080 any business

00:42:02.800 until you

00:42:03.280 figure out

00:42:03.700 what happened

00:42:04.520 here.

00:42:05.440 Because

00:42:05.960 everything else

00:42:06.920 is less

00:42:07.340 important than

00:42:08.580 finding out

00:42:09.200 how we got

00:42:09.860 that border

00:42:10.400 bill.

00:42:11.880 We need

00:42:12.700 to know

00:42:13.060 that before

00:42:14.020 you can do

00:42:14.700 anything else.

00:42:16.160 Because I've

00:42:16.560 lost all

00:42:17.620 how much

00:42:20.480 trust did we

00:42:21.040 have in

00:42:21.320 Congress

00:42:21.640 before.

00:42:22.600 But at

00:42:22.960 least we

00:42:23.300 figured they

00:42:23.780 could limp

00:42:24.280 through with

00:42:25.780 their political

00:42:27.360 theater and

00:42:28.540 stuff.

00:42:29.060 It felt like

00:42:30.020 it was an

00:42:31.620 ugly process

00:42:32.440 but somehow

00:42:33.160 it lurched

00:42:34.140 forward and

00:42:34.860 that was good

00:42:35.500 enough.

00:42:35.820 but now

00:42:37.180 this is

00:42:37.900 different.

00:42:39.060 We've

00:42:39.300 left the

00:42:39.780 realm of

00:42:40.240 politics and

00:42:40.980 we're in

00:42:41.320 something else

00:42:42.120 but I don't

00:42:43.000 know what.

00:42:44.520 And so I

00:42:45.080 would literally

00:42:45.680 say no

00:42:47.300 more votes.

00:42:49.260 We just

00:42:50.180 got to get a

00:42:50.740 committee together

00:42:51.460 and we got to

00:42:52.100 tell the

00:42:52.400 American people

00:42:53.200 ideally in

00:42:54.400 two weeks

00:42:54.960 because you

00:42:55.740 don't want to

00:42:56.060 be shut down

00:42:56.580 forever.

00:42:57.460 Just shut it

00:42:58.100 down and

00:42:59.120 say we need

00:43:00.080 to tell the

00:43:00.580 American people

00:43:01.240 what we just

00:43:01.960 did.

00:43:02.320 We the

00:43:04.180 Republicans

00:43:04.660 need to

00:43:05.260 confess what

00:43:06.800 we just

00:43:07.420 did.

00:43:08.520 Now if they

00:43:08.940 can find out

00:43:09.500 what the

00:43:09.940 Democrats did

00:43:10.680 at the same

00:43:11.120 time that would

00:43:11.580 be great.

00:43:12.580 But you

00:43:13.540 need to shut

00:43:14.440 it down and

00:43:15.380 you need to

00:43:15.840 find out why

00:43:16.580 this happened.

00:43:17.740 You need to

00:43:18.220 tell us or

00:43:19.800 you don't give

00:43:20.560 fucking any

00:43:21.640 support from

00:43:22.400 now on.

00:43:23.440 Because whatever

00:43:24.200 happened needs

00:43:25.120 to be explained

00:43:26.020 and I can't

00:43:27.460 go on.

00:43:28.720 I can't take

00:43:29.560 you seriously

00:43:30.100 for anything

00:43:30.980 else.

00:43:31.520 You don't get

00:43:31.920 a penny.

00:43:32.980 You don't get

00:43:33.800 a penny.

00:43:36.400 Now will

00:43:37.080 that happen?

00:43:37.720 No.

00:43:38.720 Because the

00:43:39.380 system is too

00:43:40.060 dirty.

00:43:41.360 Now I say the

00:43:42.080 same thing about

00:43:42.620 the election by

00:43:43.320 the way.

00:43:43.740 And again it's

00:43:44.600 not hyperbole

00:43:45.420 and I'm not

00:43:46.480 joking even a

00:43:47.380 little bit.

00:43:48.300 I'm not

00:43:48.740 positioning or

00:43:49.820 negotiating or

00:43:50.760 persuading.

00:43:51.740 We need to

00:43:52.580 cancel the

00:43:53.100 election.

00:43:54.540 The presidential

00:43:55.160 election.

00:43:57.000 Because neither

00:43:58.600 the Democrats

00:43:59.280 nor the

00:43:59.980 Republicans feel

00:44:00.940 that our

00:44:01.320 current design

00:44:01.920 will be

00:44:03.940 credible no

00:44:05.340 matter what

00:44:05.780 the answer

00:44:06.160 is.

00:44:07.140 If Trump

00:44:08.060 wins, the

00:44:08.920 Democrats are

00:44:09.560 going to be

00:44:09.880 marching on

00:44:10.420 the streets

00:44:10.900 because they'll

00:44:11.380 say they don't

00:44:11.960 believe the

00:44:12.380 election.

00:44:13.980 If Biden

00:44:14.860 wins, the

00:44:16.320 Republicans are

00:44:17.100 going to be

00:44:17.500 back to

00:44:18.460 whatever

00:44:19.480 protesting they

00:44:20.340 do for the

00:44:22.060 same reason.

00:44:23.140 The minimum

00:44:24.000 you need is a

00:44:24.920 system that

00:44:25.700 both sides

00:44:27.080 say I hate

00:44:27.760 the result but

00:44:28.460 at least you

00:44:29.120 counted the

00:44:29.620 votes right

00:44:30.180 or at least

00:44:31.160 it wasn't

00:44:31.540 broken.

00:44:32.620 You need to

00:44:33.600 figure out how

00:44:34.520 to make our

00:44:35.000 system credible

00:44:36.020 and then you

00:44:37.540 can have the

00:44:37.920 vote.

00:44:38.820 And by the

00:44:39.160 way, there's

00:44:39.520 plenty of time

00:44:40.100 to do it

00:44:40.620 because what I

00:44:41.820 would suggest is

00:44:42.560 just getting rid of

00:44:43.340 the machines and

00:44:44.720 getting rid of the

00:44:45.420 mail-in ballots.

00:44:47.200 So subtracting

00:44:48.560 things doesn't take a

00:44:49.480 long time.

00:44:50.680 And then they

00:44:51.040 would just add,

00:44:51.920 you know, print

00:44:52.840 some extra ballots

00:44:53.700 between now and

00:44:54.420 November.

00:44:54.820 completely doable.

00:44:57.180 Right?

00:44:57.720 Just make sure it

00:44:58.720 happens all in one

00:44:59.640 day.

00:45:01.260 Now, of course, the

00:45:02.180 federal government

00:45:02.680 doesn't control the

00:45:03.640 states, blah, blah,

00:45:04.940 blah, but there's

00:45:05.560 probably some way

00:45:06.220 they could do it.

00:45:07.780 There's probably

00:45:08.380 some way we could

00:45:09.940 force it through

00:45:10.720 because what would

00:45:13.540 be the point of

00:45:14.180 having an election

00:45:14.900 that causes a

00:45:15.900 civil war and you

00:45:16.840 know in advance

00:45:17.520 it's going to

00:45:17.980 happen?

00:45:20.260 If you know in

00:45:21.120 advance that people

00:45:22.180 aren't going to

00:45:22.540 trust the outcome,

00:45:23.280 you need to

00:45:24.980 stop, figure

00:45:26.740 out how to

00:45:27.260 make them

00:45:27.620 trust it, and

00:45:28.980 then do it.

00:45:30.040 Because the

00:45:30.480 trusting the

00:45:31.060 election is

00:45:31.840 really, really,

00:45:33.600 really, really,

00:45:34.900 really, really

00:45:36.360 important.

00:45:37.660 That's not

00:45:38.120 optional.

00:45:39.220 You've got to

00:45:39.600 get that right

00:45:40.180 where nothing

00:45:40.820 else matters.

00:45:43.520 All right.

00:45:46.420 The Alaska

00:45:47.500 National Guard

00:45:49.020 looks like they're

00:45:50.000 sending some

00:45:50.760 assets or forces

00:45:51.700 to help Texas

00:45:53.220 guard the

00:45:53.760 border.

00:45:54.900 Let me ask

00:45:55.600 you, is

00:45:57.380 Congress working

00:45:58.520 if the states

00:45:59.980 are sending

00:46:00.440 military assets

00:46:01.760 to compensate

00:46:02.860 for the fact

00:46:03.640 that we can't

00:46:05.320 guard our

00:46:05.680 border?

00:46:06.320 Do you need

00:46:06.720 to know

00:46:06.980 anything else?

00:46:08.720 There's nothing

00:46:09.420 else to know.

00:46:11.020 If the states

00:46:11.720 are actually

00:46:12.500 organizing military

00:46:15.660 assets because

00:46:17.480 the government

00:46:18.120 won't protect

00:46:18.860 them, we

00:46:20.400 don't have a

00:46:21.020 government.

00:46:22.860 Whatever is

00:46:23.780 happening is

00:46:24.940 not politics.

00:46:26.640 There's

00:46:26.980 something else

00:46:27.800 happening.

00:46:29.140 Otherwise, you

00:46:29.880 wouldn't get

00:46:30.240 this happening.

00:46:32.020 The Mayorkas

00:46:32.840 impeachment

00:46:33.280 failed.

00:46:34.760 I'm not too

00:46:35.760 unhappy about

00:46:36.440 that.

00:46:36.820 I do like the

00:46:37.520 fact that there

00:46:38.080 are still a

00:46:38.540 number of

00:46:38.960 Republicans who

00:46:40.540 are willing to

00:46:41.220 say we can't

00:46:42.680 do this unless

00:46:43.340 it matches the

00:46:45.640 law or the

00:46:47.520 Constitution.

00:46:48.180 Mayorkas,

00:46:50.040 although he

00:46:50.600 seems intentionally

00:46:51.640 not doing his

00:46:52.380 job, that

00:46:52.880 doesn't seem to

00:46:53.520 be impeachable.

00:46:55.760 You can

00:46:56.440 intentionally do

00:46:57.280 the opposite of

00:46:58.060 what you were

00:46:58.400 hired to do.

00:46:59.480 It's not a

00:47:00.100 crime, exactly.

00:47:01.520 It's just

00:47:02.140 really, really

00:47:03.000 bad.

00:47:04.980 So I guess

00:47:06.240 in a weird way,

00:47:06.940 I'm happy that

00:47:07.560 there are enough

00:47:08.260 honest people who

00:47:09.180 say, you know,

00:47:10.020 I just can't go

00:47:10.980 there.

00:47:11.560 I can't make it a

00:47:12.540 crime when it's not

00:47:13.220 a crime.

00:47:13.600 So I

00:47:15.080 appreciate that.

00:47:16.080 But I like

00:47:16.980 also that they

00:47:17.840 held Mayorkas

00:47:19.460 at least

00:47:20.460 accountable in

00:47:21.340 the world of

00:47:22.720 public opinion.

00:47:24.020 That's better

00:47:24.760 than nothing.

00:47:25.780 I'd call it a

00:47:26.460 win because it

00:47:27.920 surfaces the

00:47:29.220 problem a little

00:47:29.860 bit.

00:47:31.800 All right.

00:47:34.060 The FBI

00:47:35.060 apparently arrested

00:47:36.240 some man who

00:47:37.120 was like a

00:47:37.680 militia kind

00:47:38.600 of guy who

00:47:39.960 was planning to

00:47:40.680 fire sniper

00:47:41.360 rounds into

00:47:42.180 some explosives

00:47:43.080 to blow up

00:47:43.880 something at

00:47:44.320 the border

00:47:44.700 because he

00:47:45.280 doesn't think

00:47:45.920 the government's

00:47:46.700 protecting the

00:47:47.820 border enough.

00:47:48.600 He's a Tennessee

00:47:49.160 man.

00:47:51.600 Now, I'm

00:47:52.360 surprised there

00:47:52.920 hasn't been more

00:47:53.580 of that.

00:47:55.480 Don't you

00:47:55.840 expect to see,

00:47:57.660 and I don't

00:47:58.360 recommend this.

00:47:59.200 This would be a

00:47:59.720 very bad idea.

00:48:02.200 Didn't you

00:48:02.800 expect to see

00:48:03.740 volunteer snipers

00:48:05.720 at the border?

00:48:08.480 I feel like

00:48:09.360 somebody who

00:48:09.860 was a sniper

00:48:10.480 to begin with

00:48:11.420 could just

00:48:12.520 set up a

00:48:13.260 position and

00:48:14.920 take out

00:48:15.540 not the

00:48:16.280 migrants,

00:48:16.820 that would

00:48:17.140 be the

00:48:17.380 worst thing

00:48:17.720 in the

00:48:17.900 world,

00:48:18.640 but the

00:48:19.300 cartel

00:48:20.040 because you

00:48:21.200 can usually

00:48:21.640 identify the

00:48:22.400 cartel person

00:48:23.140 or the one

00:48:23.960 waving people

00:48:24.640 through and

00:48:25.000 stuff.

00:48:25.940 And if you

00:48:26.600 just,

00:48:28.260 and again,

00:48:28.820 I don't

00:48:29.140 recommend it,

00:48:30.180 but it has to

00:48:31.260 be taken in the

00:48:31.960 context of not

00:48:32.800 having a

00:48:33.280 functional

00:48:33.660 government.

00:48:35.160 If we had a

00:48:36.040 functional

00:48:36.400 government,

00:48:37.720 even imagining

00:48:39.060 that this could

00:48:39.780 be a positive

00:48:40.380 thing would be

00:48:41.500 way beyond

00:48:42.240 the line.

00:48:43.220 You know,

00:48:43.360 the government

00:48:43.740 needs to

00:48:44.160 handle this,

00:48:44.640 not the

00:48:44.900 people.

00:48:45.720 But we

00:48:46.060 don't have a

00:48:46.700 functional

00:48:47.020 government when

00:48:48.400 it comes to

00:48:48.860 the border.

00:48:49.500 And again,

00:48:50.760 wouldn't you

00:48:51.180 like to know

00:48:51.680 why?

00:48:52.700 Because I

00:48:53.120 don't know

00:48:53.440 why.

00:48:54.380 But it's a

00:48:55.140 fact.

00:48:56.220 So this

00:48:57.060 poor gentleman

00:48:58.020 will have great

00:49:00.480 legal problems,

00:49:01.620 and I don't

00:49:02.360 recommend it

00:49:02.960 because anybody

00:49:03.380 who does this

00:49:03.900 sort of thing

00:49:04.320 is going to

00:49:04.660 have the same

00:49:05.120 kind of outcome

00:49:05.800 and it's going

00:49:06.400 to be bad.

00:49:06.840 But I'm

00:49:07.620 kind of

00:49:08.000 surprised that

00:49:09.740 we're not

00:49:10.020 seeing more

00:49:10.540 of it already.

00:49:15.520 You're saying

00:49:16.300 that he'll be

00:49:19.640 impeached next

00:49:20.340 week?

00:49:22.200 All right,

00:49:22.500 you're going to

00:49:22.760 have to explain

00:49:23.440 how that's

00:49:24.200 going to work.

00:49:26.260 So I don't

00:49:28.020 see him being

00:49:28.620 impeached.

00:49:29.920 All right,

00:49:30.160 you might be

00:49:30.600 right, but you

00:49:31.740 can inform me

00:49:32.380 later.

00:49:34.160 Well, rapper

00:49:35.300 Meek Mills,

00:49:36.180 another notable

00:49:38.260 public, famous

00:49:40.660 black guy, says

00:49:42.700 he posted a

00:49:44.020 picture of

00:49:44.600 Trump and

00:49:45.560 Vivek, and

00:49:46.880 he said,

00:49:47.400 wait till

00:49:47.740 y'all see

00:49:48.280 who the

00:49:48.600 black people

00:49:49.140 in poverty

00:49:49.720 are voting

00:49:50.140 for.

00:49:53.100 Is that

00:49:53.820 foreshadowing?

00:49:55.660 Now, how

00:49:56.840 many days in

00:49:58.820 a row are

00:49:59.460 we going to

00:49:59.800 see a

00:50:00.300 prominent,

00:50:02.500 respected,

00:50:03.820 black person

00:50:05.700 saying, you

00:50:07.180 know, maybe

00:50:08.360 Trump, maybe.

00:50:10.660 I feel like a

00:50:11.620 dam is about

00:50:12.300 ready to break.

00:50:13.880 Now, I'm

00:50:14.460 hearing that it's

00:50:15.180 primarily the

00:50:16.160 black men and

00:50:17.640 that the black

00:50:18.140 women are still

00:50:18.860 more solidly

00:50:21.340 Biden.

00:50:22.400 But at some

00:50:23.900 point, if

00:50:26.000 every day or

00:50:26.840 so, there's

00:50:28.460 another prominent

00:50:29.520 black leader who

00:50:30.500 says, you know,

00:50:32.180 you might want to

00:50:33.680 keep your

00:50:34.600 options open,

00:50:35.940 I feel like the

00:50:37.140 dam will just

00:50:37.720 break and it'll

00:50:38.420 just become a

00:50:39.060 thing.

00:50:39.820 It's right on the

00:50:40.740 border of becoming

00:50:41.460 a thing.

00:50:41.920 It's not a

00:50:42.360 thing.

00:50:43.540 But it's getting

00:50:44.240 close to being a

00:50:44.940 thing.

00:50:48.580 There's a report

00:50:49.400 that Trump will

00:50:51.020 have an easier

00:50:51.500 time staffing the

00:50:52.720 White House if he

00:50:53.400 wins because the

00:50:54.900 Republicans are

00:50:55.620 lining up and

00:50:57.000 they're not

00:50:57.720 embarrassed

00:50:58.440 whatsoever.

00:50:59.320 And I'm

00:51:00.980 really, really

00:51:01.660 happy about that.

00:51:04.140 And the reason

00:51:05.000 I'm happy is

00:51:05.660 because it means

00:51:06.600 that we now have

00:51:07.600 digested and we

00:51:09.300 understand that

00:51:10.620 January 6th

00:51:13.100 insurrection was

00:51:13.880 a hoax.

00:51:15.580 And once you

00:51:16.440 realize it was a

00:51:17.080 hoax and you see

00:51:17.860 the entire, let's

00:51:20.180 say, portfolio of

00:51:21.720 corrupt behavior

00:51:22.880 from the Democrats,

00:51:24.120 including primarily

00:51:25.460 the open border,

00:51:26.320 Trump does look

00:51:29.420 like the adult in

00:51:30.200 the room.

00:51:31.640 The fact that he

00:51:32.640 went from this

00:51:33.360 crazy, dangerous

00:51:34.440 guy that was

00:51:35.320 toxic to the

00:51:37.340 most reasonable

00:51:38.320 solution to our

00:51:39.320 biggest problems,

00:51:40.620 and he didn't do

00:51:41.680 much to make that

00:51:42.560 happen.

00:51:44.020 That's the beauty.

00:51:45.560 What changed

00:51:46.500 wasn't Trump.

00:51:49.100 Not much.

00:51:50.660 I mean, Trump is

00:51:51.360 still the same guy.

00:51:52.660 What changed was,

00:51:53.500 it's now obvious

00:51:54.260 he's been right for

00:51:55.160 years.

00:51:56.320 That's what

00:51:56.840 changed.

00:51:58.000 So the people who

00:51:58.860 say, you know

00:51:59.380 what, I get that

00:52:01.000 this could be

00:52:01.520 trouble for me,

00:52:02.560 but why wouldn't

00:52:03.780 I want to be on

00:52:04.440 the team that's

00:52:05.000 been right for

00:52:05.640 years?

00:52:06.760 And now it's

00:52:07.420 obvious he's

00:52:08.640 right for years.

00:52:11.560 So I think that

00:52:12.440 might be a big

00:52:13.020 plus for Republicans.

00:52:14.800 There'll still be a

00:52:15.380 bunch of people who

00:52:16.020 are never-Trumpers,

00:52:17.000 but I don't think

00:52:17.700 we need them.

00:52:19.680 All right.

00:52:21.300 Apparently,

00:52:22.120 Nikki Haley is,

00:52:23.920 according to the

00:52:24.460 press, and I

00:52:25.780 quote, I think

00:52:26.540 this was in

00:52:27.180 The Hill,

00:52:28.560 raking in cash.

00:52:31.300 What?

00:52:33.380 Nikki Haley,

00:52:35.300 as of the

00:52:36.240 reporting today,

00:52:37.960 as of today,

00:52:39.820 is raking in cash.

00:52:42.260 How do you

00:52:42.880 explain that?

00:52:44.920 How do you

00:52:45.560 explain that?

00:52:46.560 Have we ever

00:52:47.220 seen a situation

00:52:48.040 where somebody

00:52:48.680 was totally

00:52:50.320 behind and

00:52:52.220 couldn't possibly

00:52:53.040 win, and they

00:52:54.280 were still

00:52:54.560 raking in cash?

00:52:55.980 Huh.

00:52:57.000 Here's my

00:52:57.620 question.

00:52:59.800 What do the

00:53:00.500 people giving

00:53:01.060 her cash know

00:53:01.880 that you don't

00:53:02.520 know and I

00:53:03.860 don't know?

00:53:05.020 Because what you

00:53:05.820 and I know is

00:53:06.440 it's a waste of

00:53:07.240 money.

00:53:08.540 What do they know

00:53:09.380 that we don't

00:53:09.880 know?

00:53:10.680 Because the

00:53:11.320 people giving

00:53:11.740 the cash are

00:53:12.280 not the dumb

00:53:12.740 people, they're

00:53:13.220 the smart

00:53:13.660 people.

00:53:14.760 The people

00:53:15.220 giving her

00:53:15.660 cash know

00:53:16.260 more than

00:53:16.640 you.

00:53:17.380 They don't

00:53:17.960 know less than

00:53:18.540 you.

00:53:19.340 They know more

00:53:20.180 than you.

00:53:21.140 What do they

00:53:21.700 know?

00:53:23.400 I can only

00:53:24.280 think of a

00:53:25.180 couple of

00:53:25.500 things.

00:53:26.380 They either

00:53:26.960 think that

00:53:27.420 Trump's going

00:53:27.960 to jail no

00:53:28.620 matter what,

00:53:30.500 no matter

00:53:31.060 what, as

00:53:32.220 in no matter

00:53:32.680 what the

00:53:33.060 legal process

00:53:34.960 should have

00:53:35.580 done, or

00:53:37.240 they think he's

00:53:38.320 going to be

00:53:38.660 taken out with

00:53:39.960 let's say

00:53:41.080 greater prejudice.

00:53:43.760 I cannot

00:53:44.780 imagine any

00:53:45.780 scenario in

00:53:47.260 which raking

00:53:48.520 in cash for

00:53:50.360 somebody that

00:53:51.020 far behind

00:53:51.920 makes sense.

00:53:54.320 Now, some

00:53:54.740 say that

00:53:55.300 they're pushing

00:53:55.880 for her to

00:53:56.320 be vice

00:53:56.800 president.

00:53:58.020 That's not

00:53:58.540 going to

00:53:58.760 happen, and

00:53:59.860 they know

00:54:00.180 that's not

00:54:00.680 going to

00:54:00.900 happen.

00:54:02.300 Who in

00:54:03.240 their right

00:54:03.620 mind believes

00:54:04.340 Trump is

00:54:04.820 going to

00:54:05.040 allow Nikki

00:54:05.820 Haley to

00:54:06.240 be his

00:54:07.040 vice

00:54:07.300 presidential

00:54:07.800 candidate?

00:54:08.780 There's no

00:54:09.320 Republican who

00:54:10.020 thinks that,

00:54:10.640 is there?

00:54:12.040 And if no

00:54:12.620 Republican thinks

00:54:13.440 that, it's

00:54:13.840 not going to

00:54:14.220 happen.

00:54:15.500 So I

00:54:16.600 reject the

00:54:17.260 theory that

00:54:17.840 they're trying

00:54:18.280 to get her

00:54:18.720 placed as a

00:54:19.460 vice

00:54:19.660 president.

00:54:20.360 They must

00:54:22.880 want her to

00:54:23.520 be the

00:54:23.820 candidate.

00:54:26.140 So what's

00:54:27.720 going on

00:54:28.200 here?

00:54:29.200 Again, I

00:54:29.820 ask, this

00:54:31.280 isn't

00:54:31.640 politics.

00:54:33.180 Whatever this

00:54:34.040 is has

00:54:35.100 nothing to

00:54:35.600 do with

00:54:35.900 politics.

00:54:37.800 Am I

00:54:38.540 right?

00:54:39.840 Whatever is

00:54:40.580 happening at

00:54:41.020 the border

00:54:41.400 has nothing

00:54:41.980 to do with

00:54:42.420 politics.

00:54:43.800 Whatever is

00:54:44.340 happening with

00:54:45.080 Ukraine and

00:54:45.820 Ukraine funding

00:54:46.640 and the way

00:54:48.080 Tucker Carlson

00:54:48.940 is being

00:54:49.280 treated in

00:54:49.760 the press,

00:54:50.720 that's not

00:54:51.340 politics.

00:54:53.080 That's

00:54:53.480 something else.

00:54:55.720 And we

00:54:56.220 don't know

00:54:56.520 what it is.

00:54:57.840 But the

00:54:58.260 something else

00:54:58.880 is pretty

00:54:59.320 big.

00:55:00.840 And I

00:55:01.360 don't know

00:55:01.580 if it's

00:55:01.820 all the

00:55:02.080 same

00:55:02.280 something

00:55:02.600 else or

00:55:03.040 it's

00:55:03.180 just a

00:55:03.460 bunch of

00:55:03.760 mysteries.

00:55:07.340 All right,

00:55:08.140 so let's

00:55:08.780 talk about

00:55:09.180 Tucker.

00:55:09.600 Apparently

00:55:09.880 Tucker has

00:55:10.380 already talked

00:55:10.960 to Putin.

00:55:11.480 That's what

00:55:11.800 we think.

00:55:12.820 And I'm

00:55:13.460 going to

00:55:13.600 give you

00:55:13.900 some Alex

00:55:14.600 Jones

00:55:15.000 advice that

00:55:16.560 he gave

00:55:17.000 to Tucker

00:55:17.560 and say

00:55:19.780 what you

00:55:20.220 will about

00:55:20.820 Alex

00:55:21.180 Jones.

00:55:22.560 Listen to

00:55:23.300 this advice

00:55:24.040 and you

00:55:24.840 tell me

00:55:25.200 that this

00:55:25.580 isn't the

00:55:26.040 best advice

00:55:26.640 anybody ever

00:55:27.260 gave.

00:55:28.020 You ready?

00:55:29.340 Allegedly,

00:55:30.000 the interview

00:55:30.380 is already

00:55:30.800 in the can,

00:55:32.140 but the way

00:55:32.660 Alex Jones

00:55:34.000 explains,

00:55:35.180 that Tucker's

00:55:35.940 production crew

00:55:37.120 likes to

00:55:37.740 really work

00:55:39.200 over the

00:55:39.600 material and

00:55:40.320 make sure

00:55:40.640 it's a nice

00:55:41.120 tight little

00:55:41.620 product before

00:55:42.280 they release

00:55:42.780 it, which

00:55:43.740 would suggest

00:55:44.500 it might take

00:55:45.400 several days

00:55:46.020 before you

00:55:46.480 see it.

00:55:48.360 Alex Jones

00:55:49.020 says,

00:55:49.660 you don't

00:55:50.140 have several

00:55:50.820 days.

00:55:53.080 You'd better

00:55:53.740 put it out

00:55:54.260 right away

00:55:54.960 because there's

00:55:56.860 something coming

00:55:57.480 for you,

00:55:58.080 probably.

00:56:00.520 And probably

00:56:01.500 the only way

00:56:02.160 you can protect

00:56:02.820 yourself is to

00:56:03.700 have already

00:56:04.460 published it.

00:56:05.660 If they can

00:56:06.520 stop it from

00:56:07.260 being published,

00:56:08.020 they're going

00:56:08.340 to do it.

00:56:09.140 You've got to

00:56:09.740 publish it so

00:56:10.440 that they don't

00:56:10.900 have the option

00:56:11.480 of stopping

00:56:12.000 it.

00:56:14.040 Is Alex

00:56:14.880 Jones

00:56:15.180 correct?

00:56:16.020 Yes.

00:56:19.240 On a risk

00:56:20.220 reward basis,

00:56:21.820 Alex Jones

00:56:22.540 just gave the

00:56:23.240 smartest real

00:56:24.340 world advice

00:56:25.160 I've ever

00:56:25.600 seen.

00:56:26.640 What is the

00:56:27.320 risk of putting

00:56:28.000 out this with

00:56:28.900 some, let's

00:56:29.580 say, imperfect

00:56:30.240 editing?

00:56:31.440 Almost nothing.

00:56:32.980 Almost no

00:56:33.540 risk to put it

00:56:34.780 out right away

00:56:35.460 in its raw

00:56:35.980 form.

00:56:36.480 No risk.

00:56:37.440 If you told

00:56:38.380 people we

00:56:38.840 didn't edit

00:56:39.300 it, then

00:56:40.620 people say,

00:56:41.160 oh, not

00:56:41.760 edited.

00:56:42.160 I get it.

00:56:42.600 What is the

00:56:45.000 risk of waiting

00:56:45.680 a few days

00:56:46.260 to put it

00:56:46.700 out?

00:56:47.920 Well, I

00:56:49.120 wouldn't put a

00:56:49.720 percentage risk

00:56:50.620 on it because

00:56:51.400 I don't know.

00:56:52.920 But whatever the

00:56:53.720 percentage is, it

00:56:54.660 does include

00:56:55.420 death.

00:56:56.820 It does

00:56:57.800 literally

00:56:59.120 include the

00:57:00.600 option of

00:57:01.060 death.

00:57:01.360 death.

00:57:02.580 So I don't

00:57:04.240 know if you're

00:57:04.700 fully appreciating

00:57:05.740 the amount

00:57:06.420 of guts this

00:57:08.280 takes Tucker

00:57:09.240 and his whole

00:57:09.800 team.

00:57:11.000 Are you fully

00:57:11.760 appreciating the

00:57:12.520 level of

00:57:13.580 patriotic

00:57:15.740 bravery that's

00:57:17.600 involved here?

00:57:19.340 I mean, this

00:57:20.800 is some serious

00:57:21.720 danger.

00:57:23.680 And, yeah,

00:57:24.800 Alex Jones,

00:57:25.400 good advice.

00:57:26.160 So I don't

00:57:26.480 know if Tucker

00:57:28.040 is going to

00:57:28.420 take that.

00:57:28.920 But the

00:57:30.060 EU, can

00:57:31.440 you believe

00:57:31.760 this?

00:57:32.380 There's some

00:57:32.740 member of the

00:57:33.260 EU who's

00:57:33.760 talking about

00:57:34.260 putting a

00:57:34.800 travel ban

00:57:35.820 on Tucker

00:57:36.520 because the

00:57:37.860 EU doesn't

00:57:38.680 like an

00:57:39.080 American

00:57:39.440 talking to

00:57:40.060 a Russian

00:57:40.500 for

00:57:42.660 journalism.

00:57:45.520 For

00:57:46.160 journalism.

00:57:48.720 The

00:57:49.360 European

00:57:49.940 Union

00:57:51.340 thinks that

00:57:53.600 they should

00:57:54.040 ban Tucker

00:57:54.900 from his

00:57:56.320 normal right

00:57:57.020 as a human

00:57:57.580 being to

00:57:58.080 travel to

00:57:58.700 free countries

00:57:59.460 including

00:58:00.280 theirs

00:58:00.800 because he

00:58:02.340 interviewed

00:58:03.160 under the

00:58:06.020 journalism

00:58:07.080 condition

00:58:08.840 Putin.

00:58:11.400 There's

00:58:12.160 something so

00:58:12.860 wrong with

00:58:13.420 that that I

00:58:14.120 almost don't

00:58:15.140 know even

00:58:15.680 what to

00:58:16.080 say.

00:58:18.040 How about

00:58:18.700 the European

00:58:19.260 Union should

00:58:20.280 take care of

00:58:22.900 Ukraine on

00:58:23.480 their own?

00:58:25.040 How about

00:58:25.400 that?

00:58:26.840 How about

00:58:27.340 you take care

00:58:27.880 of Ukraine?

00:58:28.360 That's your

00:58:28.980 neighbor?

00:58:30.340 You're on

00:58:31.000 your own

00:58:31.360 fuckers.

00:58:33.220 If you

00:58:34.420 ban Tucker

00:58:35.200 Carlson,

00:58:36.100 there's no

00:58:36.960 way I

00:58:37.840 think any

00:58:38.340 Republican

00:58:38.800 should vote

00:58:39.940 for any

00:58:40.320 funding for

00:58:40.880 Ukraine.

00:58:41.720 That's your

00:58:42.200 problem.

00:58:43.620 Yeah, EU

00:58:44.360 has money.

00:58:45.480 They still

00:58:45.880 have money.

00:58:46.960 They can

00:58:47.280 still drive

00:58:47.780 cars and

00:58:48.340 buy new

00:58:48.780 clothes.

00:58:50.320 So if

00:58:50.940 their existential

00:58:51.600 threat seems

00:58:52.520 too big,

00:58:53.340 well maybe

00:58:53.760 they can fund

00:58:54.340 it.

00:58:55.640 How about

00:58:56.300 you don't

00:58:57.000 even threaten

00:58:57.760 an American

00:58:58.440 journalist?

00:58:59.880 Fuckers.

00:59:01.060 How about

00:59:01.800 you don't

00:59:02.540 threaten our

00:59:03.660 fucking

00:59:04.220 journalists?

00:59:05.640 How about

00:59:05.980 you don't

00:59:06.280 do that?

00:59:07.300 If you

00:59:07.940 want funding

00:59:09.780 to keep

00:59:10.520 you from

00:59:10.860 being overrun

00:59:12.120 by Putin,

00:59:13.360 if that's

00:59:13.720 what you

00:59:13.940 think is

00:59:14.260 going to

00:59:14.460 happen.

00:59:14.880 I don't

00:59:15.100 think that's

00:59:15.500 going to

00:59:15.660 happen.

00:59:17.040 Yeah,

00:59:17.740 too far.

00:59:18.620 That's too

00:59:19.040 far,

00:59:19.820 Europe.

00:59:21.000 How about

00:59:21.360 fuck off?

00:59:22.720 Just fuck

00:59:23.220 off.

00:59:28.120 Here's

00:59:28.640 Glenn

00:59:30.600 Greenwald,

00:59:31.540 again,

00:59:33.180 a treasure

00:59:34.040 to the

00:59:34.460 world.

00:59:34.840 I won't

00:59:35.080 say a

00:59:35.360 national

00:59:35.700 treasure,

00:59:36.180 he's more

00:59:36.480 of a

00:59:37.400 global

00:59:37.740 treasure.

00:59:39.500 He said,

00:59:40.300 who are

00:59:40.560 the American

00:59:41.060 journalists

00:59:41.540 who conducted

00:59:42.200 even

00:59:42.620 minimally

00:59:43.280 adversarial

00:59:44.100 interviews

00:59:44.600 with

00:59:44.880 Zelensky?

00:59:47.780 I'm

00:59:48.300 drawing a

00:59:48.760 blank.

00:59:51.280 That's

00:59:51.800 all you

00:59:52.080 need to

00:59:52.380 know.

00:59:53.220 That Tucker

00:59:54.980 can't be

00:59:56.400 allowed to

00:59:56.880 talk to

00:59:57.300 Putin,

00:59:58.080 and nobody

00:59:58.940 talked to

00:59:59.440 Zelensky with

01:00:00.300 any critical

01:00:01.560 approach.

01:00:04.060 And then

01:00:04.480 Elon said,

01:00:06.220 and I

01:00:07.160 quote from

01:00:08.200 a post

01:00:08.680 on X-Day,

01:00:09.460 Elon Musk

01:00:10.060 said to

01:00:10.780 Glenn Greenwald's

01:00:11.860 point about

01:00:12.520 nobody

01:00:12.920 interviewing

01:00:14.020 Zelensky,

01:00:15.600 to be

01:00:16.180 fair,

01:00:17.000 it's hard

01:00:17.460 for them

01:00:17.760 to talk

01:00:18.180 while giving

01:00:18.620 a blowjob

01:00:19.220 at the

01:00:19.500 same time.

01:00:20.040 all right,

01:00:22.880 well,

01:00:23.840 I think

01:00:24.240 that pretty

01:00:24.640 much sums

01:00:25.120 it up.

01:00:27.080 You know,

01:00:27.720 I started

01:00:28.360 by saying

01:00:28.860 that

01:00:29.340 Molly

01:00:31.140 Hemingway

01:00:31.580 was the

01:00:32.000 best

01:00:32.220 communicator

01:00:32.980 in politics,

01:00:34.040 but Elon's

01:00:35.160 right behind

01:00:35.640 her.

01:00:36.740 He's right

01:00:37.100 behind her.

01:00:39.920 Hamas has

01:00:40.600 a great

01:00:41.020 fake

01:00:41.680 counter

01:00:42.080 proposal.

01:00:42.580 The funny

01:00:46.240 part is

01:00:46.680 that Hamas

01:00:47.380 is pretending

01:00:49.120 this is

01:00:49.640 serious.

01:00:50.600 It's

01:00:50.860 obviously

01:00:51.280 just for

01:00:52.000 propaganda

01:00:52.760 purposes.

01:00:54.000 But they've

01:00:54.580 got this

01:00:54.960 idea that,

01:00:56.220 oh,

01:00:56.420 why don't

01:00:56.660 we do

01:00:56.980 this phased

01:00:58.360 approach

01:00:59.120 where we

01:01:00.040 release some

01:01:00.640 people and

01:01:01.480 you do

01:01:02.240 some cease

01:01:02.700 fires and

01:01:03.540 then we'll

01:01:04.780 get some

01:01:05.060 other friendly

01:01:05.580 countries to

01:01:06.880 work with

01:01:07.880 us and

01:01:08.640 we'll rebuild

01:01:09.940 Gaza.

01:01:12.580 none of

01:01:14.060 that's

01:01:14.300 going to

01:01:14.540 happen.

01:01:16.500 Not any

01:01:17.340 of that

01:01:17.700 could possibly

01:01:18.380 happen.

01:01:19.400 Not even

01:01:20.200 a little

01:01:20.600 bit,

01:01:21.080 not slightly.

01:01:22.920 Why do

01:01:23.420 they put

01:01:23.720 out that

01:01:24.080 proposal?

01:01:25.520 If they

01:01:26.160 know it's

01:01:26.560 a complete

01:01:27.120 non-starter.

01:01:28.680 They put

01:01:29.440 it out

01:01:29.920 so they

01:01:31.040 can say

01:01:31.400 they had

01:01:31.720 a peace

01:01:32.040 plan that

01:01:32.540 Israel

01:01:32.860 rejected.

01:01:35.380 Yeah,

01:01:35.980 of course.

01:01:37.160 Yeah.

01:01:37.520 Now,

01:01:38.460 I do

01:01:38.920 think that

01:01:39.440 Netanyahu

01:01:40.060 has to

01:01:40.820 have

01:01:41.140 absolutely

01:01:42.920 no

01:01:45.000 negotiation

01:01:46.300 over all

01:01:47.260 of the

01:01:47.600 Hamas

01:01:48.000 people being

01:01:48.600 killed,

01:01:49.700 the fighters,

01:01:51.400 the people

01:01:52.200 who are

01:01:52.360 involved.

01:01:52.940 They all

01:01:53.480 have to

01:01:53.760 be killed

01:01:54.200 or jailed

01:01:56.480 forever or

01:01:57.060 whatever it

01:01:57.440 takes.

01:01:58.500 Yeah,

01:01:58.780 there's no way

01:01:59.560 Israel's going

01:02:00.340 to play that

01:02:00.880 any other

01:02:01.320 way.

01:02:02.620 And when I

01:02:03.200 say they

01:02:03.500 have to,

01:02:04.040 I don't

01:02:04.300 mean that's

01:02:04.700 my opinion

01:02:05.400 or preference.

01:02:07.060 I mean,

01:02:07.560 that's simply

01:02:08.380 going to

01:02:08.840 happen.

01:02:09.080 So having

01:02:11.080 an opinion

01:02:11.520 on something

01:02:12.180 that's going

01:02:12.860 to happen

01:02:13.360 is useless.

01:02:15.820 It's like,

01:02:16.640 ah,

01:02:17.640 I have an

01:02:18.500 opinion it

01:02:19.040 shouldn't

01:02:19.340 rain today.

01:02:20.520 Well,

01:02:21.520 it's going

01:02:22.500 to rain

01:02:22.860 anyway.

01:02:24.000 My opinion

01:02:24.720 didn't really

01:02:25.500 have any

01:02:25.860 connection to

01:02:26.540 the weather.

01:02:27.800 And it's

01:02:28.040 the same

01:02:28.300 with Israel.

01:02:29.620 All of

01:02:30.280 your opinions

01:02:30.920 of what

01:02:31.340 Israel

01:02:31.640 could do,

01:02:32.560 should do,

01:02:33.540 not relevant.

01:02:35.080 This is not

01:02:35.860 like other

01:02:36.280 things where

01:02:37.080 if public

01:02:37.780 opinion was

01:02:38.560 great enough.

01:02:40.480 No,

01:02:41.100 not in this

01:02:41.900 case.

01:02:42.680 In this

01:02:43.080 case,

01:02:43.400 public

01:02:43.660 opinion has

01:02:44.240 no value

01:02:44.740 whatsoever.

01:02:45.520 Israel's

01:02:46.100 just going

01:02:46.400 to do

01:02:46.580 what they

01:02:46.920 do.

01:02:50.260 And here's

01:02:51.400 what I

01:02:51.660 think.

01:02:52.700 I think

01:02:53.160 if Hamas

01:02:53.840 weaponizes

01:02:54.480 their kids

01:02:55.200 against

01:02:56.420 Israel,

01:02:57.960 you should

01:02:59.460 expect Israel

01:03:00.200 to take

01:03:00.660 your land.

01:03:02.920 Now,

01:03:03.640 I want to

01:03:04.240 be clear,

01:03:05.040 I'm not

01:03:05.420 saying that's

01:03:05.880 a good

01:03:06.160 thing.

01:03:07.180 I'm not

01:03:07.640 in favor

01:03:08.100 of it.

01:03:08.900 I'm not

01:03:09.300 recommending

01:03:09.840 it.

01:03:10.160 I'm not

01:03:10.460 endorsing

01:03:10.940 it.

01:03:11.840 But I'm

01:03:12.300 also not

01:03:12.940 unendorsing

01:03:14.080 it, and

01:03:15.060 I'm not

01:03:15.360 saying it's

01:03:15.780 bad.

01:03:16.300 Do you

01:03:16.520 know why?

01:03:17.460 Because my

01:03:18.040 opinion doesn't

01:03:20.120 have any

01:03:20.920 value to

01:03:21.640 anything.

01:03:23.180 What does

01:03:23.880 my opinion

01:03:24.400 have to do

01:03:24.860 with it?

01:03:25.340 I'm just

01:03:25.820 saying, as

01:03:26.520 an observer,

01:03:27.600 who has no

01:03:28.160 role in

01:03:28.680 any event,

01:03:29.260 and don't

01:03:29.720 want to have

01:03:30.080 any influence

01:03:30.640 on it at

01:03:31.360 all, if

01:03:33.460 you saw a

01:03:34.000 situation where

01:03:34.780 your enemy's

01:03:35.480 weaponized

01:03:36.140 their children

01:03:36.960 to grow

01:03:40.160 up and

01:03:40.440 kill you

01:03:40.800 or die

01:03:41.300 trying, then

01:03:43.020 if you

01:03:43.580 decide that

01:03:44.080 your response

01:03:44.580 to that is

01:03:45.120 to take

01:03:45.580 their land

01:03:46.580 permanently,

01:03:47.620 you should

01:03:48.860 expect that.

01:03:50.440 That should

01:03:51.040 be the

01:03:51.360 normal thing

01:03:51.960 you should

01:03:52.260 expect.

01:03:54.040 And so

01:03:54.340 it looks

01:03:55.060 like that's

01:03:55.500 going to

01:03:55.700 happen.

01:03:56.720 It looks

01:03:57.100 like Israel

01:03:58.420 will expand,

01:04:00.000 its biggest

01:04:00.660 expansion in

01:04:02.380 its history,

01:04:02.900 I guess,

01:04:03.360 since the

01:04:04.760 founding.

01:04:05.880 And when

01:04:08.280 this is

01:04:08.660 looked at

01:04:09.220 200 years

01:04:10.520 from now,

01:04:11.240 if everybody's

01:04:11.980 still here,

01:04:12.720 at least if

01:04:13.340 the countries

01:04:13.760 are still

01:04:14.180 somewhat the

01:04:14.860 same,

01:04:15.860 they're going

01:04:16.280 to say it

01:04:16.640 was a genius

01:04:17.340 move by

01:04:17.940 Israel,

01:04:18.500 and what are

01:04:19.060 you going

01:04:19.240 to do?

01:04:20.360 Once their

01:04:21.060 children have

01:04:21.640 been weaponized,

01:04:22.980 just take

01:04:24.560 their land.

01:04:25.380 Because you

01:04:25.920 can't fix

01:04:26.440 that situation.

01:04:28.160 That's something

01:04:28.660 they control.

01:04:29.780 You can't take

01:04:30.700 their children

01:04:31.120 from them.

01:04:32.100 So once

01:04:32.600 they've

01:04:32.800 weaponized

01:04:33.300 their children,

01:04:34.120 you just

01:04:34.480 have to

01:04:34.800 treat it

01:04:35.080 like a

01:04:35.400 virus.

01:04:36.980 And when

01:04:37.260 I say

01:04:37.540 I have

01:04:37.860 to,

01:04:38.140 I don't

01:04:38.440 mean it's

01:04:38.760 my

01:04:39.000 recommendation,

01:04:40.200 I don't

01:04:40.700 mean it's

01:04:41.000 my preference,

01:04:42.540 and I'm

01:04:42.900 not endorsing

01:04:43.580 it.

01:04:44.920 I'm saying

01:04:45.460 there's only

01:04:45.820 one thing

01:04:46.200 you can do.

01:04:47.900 So if

01:04:48.400 somebody does

01:04:48.920 the only

01:04:49.200 thing you

01:04:49.520 can do,

01:04:50.740 what am

01:04:52.140 I going

01:04:52.340 to say

01:04:52.540 about that?

01:04:53.640 It's the

01:04:53.920 only thing

01:04:54.220 you can

01:04:54.480 do.

01:04:55.260 And then

01:04:55.800 if you

01:04:56.160 decide that

01:04:56.820 after you've

01:04:58.040 put up

01:04:59.600 with this,

01:05:00.240 that you

01:05:00.460 want to

01:05:00.720 just take

01:05:01.180 their land

01:05:01.600 and keep

01:05:01.960 it forever,

01:05:03.300 I say

01:05:03.800 the same

01:05:04.160 thing.

01:05:04.560 Well,

01:05:04.860 would it

01:05:05.280 matter what

01:05:05.680 my opinion

01:05:06.140 was?

01:05:07.240 It's just

01:05:07.800 going to

01:05:08.040 happen.

01:05:08.700 But I do

01:05:09.260 think it

01:05:09.560 was a

01:05:09.820 free pass.

01:05:10.580 It's a

01:05:10.880 free punch.

01:05:11.980 I think if

01:05:12.520 your enemy

01:05:13.140 weaponizes

01:05:13.920 their children

01:05:14.720 to die

01:05:15.860 trying to

01:05:16.360 kill you

01:05:16.720 for the

01:05:17.000 rest of

01:05:17.280 their life

01:05:17.580 no matter

01:05:17.960 what,

01:05:18.940 you could

01:05:19.300 take their

01:05:19.680 land.

01:05:21.260 Yeah,

01:05:21.580 I wouldn't

01:05:22.080 have any

01:05:22.600 moral or

01:05:23.320 ethical qualm

01:05:24.060 about that

01:05:24.500 whatsoever.

01:05:25.400 Now,

01:05:25.880 it'll be a

01:05:26.400 huge problem.

01:05:27.740 It'll cause

01:05:28.420 terrorism forever

01:05:29.880 and there'll

01:05:30.560 be a pariah

01:05:31.280 in the

01:05:31.600 international

01:05:32.060 community.

01:05:34.540 But if you

01:05:35.340 weaponize your

01:05:35.960 children against

01:05:36.760 them, they

01:05:37.340 can take your

01:05:37.880 land and I'm

01:05:39.140 not going to

01:05:39.500 complain.

01:05:40.140 I'm going to

01:05:40.540 observe and I'm

01:05:41.820 not going to

01:05:42.180 endorse it.

01:05:44.540 But don't ask me

01:05:45.560 to complain on

01:05:46.220 your behalf.

01:05:47.720 That's the best

01:05:48.440 way to say it.

01:05:50.120 Because I don't

01:05:50.800 want to go

01:05:51.540 anywhere near

01:05:52.220 endorsing it.

01:05:53.040 I don't want

01:05:54.780 to be anywhere

01:05:55.280 near endorsing

01:05:56.060 it.

01:05:57.040 I'm an

01:05:57.520 observer.

01:05:59.360 It's just

01:05:59.860 that I

01:06:01.560 can't

01:06:01.860 support, I

01:06:02.600 can't possibly

01:06:03.200 support the

01:06:03.740 Palestinians in

01:06:04.560 this situation.

01:06:06.440 So I'll just

01:06:07.360 watch.

01:06:08.340 We'll just

01:06:08.780 observe and

01:06:09.460 what happens

01:06:10.520 happens.

01:06:13.120 Saudi Arabia

01:06:14.100 said that they

01:06:15.140 will not

01:06:16.320 engage in

01:06:17.040 diplomatic

01:06:17.500 relationships

01:06:18.220 with Israel

01:06:19.220 until there's

01:06:20.660 an independent

01:06:21.160 Palestinian state.

01:06:22.160 an end to

01:06:23.560 the war in

01:06:24.140 Gaza.

01:06:26.000 Is Saudi

01:06:27.100 Arabia playing

01:06:27.820 this correctly?

01:06:29.060 Because remember

01:06:29.620 the whole point

01:06:31.340 of Iran's

01:06:32.300 allegedly, that

01:06:33.920 Iran was

01:06:34.440 trying to put

01:06:36.160 a wedge between

01:06:36.880 Israel and

01:06:37.460 Saudi Arabia

01:06:38.180 and if Saudi

01:06:39.460 Arabia acknowledges

01:06:41.280 the wedge and

01:06:42.720 says that they

01:06:43.520 will do what

01:06:44.080 Iran wants

01:06:44.700 them to do,

01:06:45.780 apparently, which

01:06:46.780 is not deal

01:06:47.460 with Israel,

01:06:48.420 does that mean

01:06:48.980 that October

01:06:50.540 7th worked?

01:06:52.160 and that

01:06:52.740 Iran's strategy

01:06:53.980 worked and

01:06:55.360 that Saudi

01:06:56.060 Arabia is

01:06:56.940 giving them

01:06:58.160 a victory?

01:06:59.700 Is that

01:07:00.300 what's

01:07:00.500 happening?

01:07:03.180 What would

01:07:03.800 you say?

01:07:04.180 What would

01:07:04.440 you do if

01:07:04.840 you were

01:07:05.020 Saudi Arabia?

01:07:07.900 Or more to

01:07:08.720 the point,

01:07:09.580 what should

01:07:10.080 America do

01:07:10.960 because our,

01:07:13.060 I don't know,

01:07:13.720 are they an

01:07:14.120 ally?

01:07:14.760 Do you call

01:07:15.160 Saudi Arabia

01:07:15.780 an ally?

01:07:17.080 Or is that

01:07:17.660 maybe taking it

01:07:19.120 too far?

01:07:20.320 We work

01:07:21.100 productively with

01:07:22.080 them.

01:07:23.480 So is that

01:07:24.080 good enough to

01:07:24.600 say ally?

01:07:25.440 Yeah, we sell

01:07:25.960 them weapons.

01:07:27.140 I'll say ally.

01:07:29.000 Yeah, if we sell

01:07:29.840 them weapons, I

01:07:30.640 think they're an

01:07:31.100 ally.

01:07:31.720 That's, I feel

01:07:33.400 like they're close

01:07:34.000 enough.

01:07:35.820 You know, that

01:07:36.460 doesn't mean

01:07:36.800 everything they do

01:07:37.480 we're going to

01:07:37.880 like, obviously.

01:07:41.160 But I'm going to

01:07:42.440 endorse Saudi

01:07:43.380 Arabia's play from

01:07:45.000 a political

01:07:45.940 perspective.

01:07:47.260 The one thing I

01:07:48.100 keep seeing out

01:07:48.760 of the Saudis is

01:07:50.940 good judgment.

01:07:53.840 Would you

01:07:54.360 agree?

01:07:55.600 I feel like

01:07:56.340 every, lately,

01:07:57.780 you know, last

01:07:58.220 few years since

01:07:59.040 the prince, except

01:08:00.480 for the bone

01:08:01.280 saw incident,

01:08:02.280 which if they

01:08:02.860 hadn't got

01:08:03.320 caught, you

01:08:04.180 know, maybe

01:08:04.480 that would have

01:08:04.880 been a good

01:08:05.220 idea for them

01:08:05.880 too.

01:08:06.640 But, again, I'm

01:08:07.960 not endorsing

01:08:08.760 any murderers

01:08:09.600 or evil.

01:08:10.100 I'm just

01:08:10.400 observing that it

01:08:11.440 may or may not

01:08:11.960 have helped

01:08:12.260 their national

01:08:13.760 interests.

01:08:14.260 But the

01:08:15.120 Saudis, they

01:08:16.580 do seem like

01:08:17.700 quite credible

01:08:20.340 and rational

01:08:21.780 players.

01:08:23.720 Would you

01:08:24.320 agree that

01:08:24.820 they seem

01:08:25.280 rational?

01:08:26.880 Like, whenever

01:08:27.580 they make a

01:08:28.120 play, you

01:08:29.300 say to

01:08:29.580 yourself, hmm,

01:08:30.520 yeah, I

01:08:30.820 can see that.

01:08:31.520 I see why

01:08:31.940 they did that.

01:08:32.920 I think this

01:08:33.540 is the right

01:08:34.020 play.

01:08:34.960 It's just not

01:08:35.700 good for Israel.

01:08:37.340 It's not good

01:08:38.100 for the United

01:08:38.620 States.

01:08:39.540 But that's

01:08:40.380 not their job.

01:08:41.860 Saudi Arabia

01:08:42.460 needs to do

01:08:43.240 what's good for

01:08:43.740 Saudi Arabia.

01:08:44.960 And my

01:08:45.440 reading of

01:08:46.000 the situation

01:08:46.560 is they

01:08:47.080 can't just

01:08:48.440 act like

01:08:49.660 the Gaza

01:08:50.740 war is not

01:08:51.300 happening.

01:08:52.660 Yeah.

01:08:54.120 What bone

01:08:54.820 saw?

01:08:59.080 So, once

01:08:59.860 again, I'm

01:09:00.680 going to give

01:09:01.000 credit to

01:09:01.520 Saudi Arabia

01:09:02.140 for, I

01:09:03.380 think,

01:09:03.900 rationally

01:09:04.500 pursuing their

01:09:05.240 national interest

01:09:06.040 in a way that

01:09:07.120 I can completely

01:09:07.980 understand.

01:09:08.920 It's just not

01:09:09.480 good for me.

01:09:10.960 It's just not

01:09:11.380 good for Israel.

01:09:11.980 But, hey,

01:09:13.900 they have that

01:09:14.960 right.

01:09:16.300 So, I think

01:09:17.240 they're probably

01:09:17.660 just going to

01:09:18.420 keep their

01:09:19.100 heads down

01:09:19.680 and wait for

01:09:20.280 a better

01:09:20.600 time.

01:09:21.360 Patience would

01:09:21.940 make more

01:09:22.340 sense than

01:09:23.040 just causing

01:09:24.800 more trouble.

01:09:25.720 So, I think

01:09:26.080 the Saudis are

01:09:26.680 playing it

01:09:27.100 correctly, and

01:09:27.920 it also gives

01:09:28.460 them some

01:09:28.820 negotiating

01:09:29.360 position.

01:09:31.020 So, that's

01:09:31.700 smart.

01:09:32.620 The Saudis are

01:09:33.400 also good

01:09:33.820 negotiators.

01:09:36.120 That's why

01:09:36.520 there is,

01:09:37.140 I think

01:09:39.580 that's why

01:09:40.020 the Abraham

01:09:40.460 Accords even

01:09:41.120 exists, is

01:09:42.220 because the

01:09:42.580 Saudis are

01:09:43.040 good negotiators.

01:09:45.140 So, and

01:09:45.800 America and

01:09:46.460 Trump was a

01:09:47.060 good negotiator

01:09:47.800 and Jared

01:09:50.380 Kushner.

01:09:51.960 So, that's

01:09:53.460 all I got for

01:09:53.940 you today.

01:09:55.400 And the best

01:09:55.980 live stream you're

01:09:56.680 going to see

01:09:56.960 today.

01:09:58.060 And I'm going

01:09:58.540 to say thanks

01:09:59.620 for joining

01:10:00.100 X Platform

01:10:01.280 and YouTube

01:10:02.160 and Rumble

01:10:03.120 too, coming

01:10:04.040 to you from

01:10:04.560 the Rumble

01:10:05.620 studio.

01:10:06.120 And you

01:10:07.820 should buy

01:10:08.300 my book,

01:10:10.280 Reframe Your

01:10:10.860 Brain, if you

01:10:11.320 haven't already.

01:10:12.260 Look at the

01:10:12.660 reviews.

01:10:13.580 If you have

01:10:13.980 any question

01:10:14.540 about it, just

01:10:15.140 look at the

01:10:15.520 reviews, and

01:10:16.920 you will be

01:10:17.540 convinced quite

01:10:18.640 quickly, I

01:10:19.200 think.

01:10:19.720 It's probably

01:10:20.300 one of the

01:10:20.700 most impactful

01:10:21.420 books to

01:10:23.320 change your

01:10:23.760 life of

01:10:24.880 anything you

01:10:25.400 could ever

01:10:25.720 touch.

01:10:26.920 And that's

01:10:27.260 real.

01:10:27.980 That's, you

01:10:28.480 know, obviously

01:10:29.140 on marketing.

01:10:30.340 But it's also

01:10:30.840 real.

01:10:31.580 It genuinely

01:10:32.240 is the most

01:10:33.140 impactful book

01:10:34.040 probably you

01:10:35.000 could ever

01:10:35.320 touch.

01:10:36.120 And so

01:10:37.140 that's it

01:10:37.640 for today.

01:10:38.120 I will see

01:10:38.520 you tomorrow

01:10:38.840 morning.

01:10:39.260 Thanks for

01:10:39.580 joining.
