Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:00:12.360 Wow, do we have a show today.
00:00:14.900 I feel sorry for everybody who has a show later today,
00:00:18.760 after I've covered all the interesting things.
00:00:21.060 There'll be nothing else to say.
00:00:22.700 But if you'd like this experience to go up to levels
00:00:25.000 that we can't even understand with our tiny human brains,
00:00:27.520 all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein,
00:00:30.900 a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:34.400 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:35.920 I like coffee.
00:00:37.320 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine here today.
00:00:40.680 I think it makes everything better.
00:00:42.400 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.
00:00:45.120 Go.
00:00:48.720 Oh, so good.
00:00:50.460 So good.
00:00:51.540 Well, I'm going to start with some palate cleansers,
00:00:54.340 but, of course, I will be talking about the Supreme Court case
00:01:00.760 about Colorado and Trump,
00:01:02.680 and, of course, the Putin interview with Tucker,
00:01:05.640 and we'll talk about Biden's brain,
00:01:09.080 and at the end I'm going to talk about some persuasion
00:01:13.380 that Israel is using quite successfully.
00:01:18.360 So wait for that.
00:01:19.420 That'll be toward the end.
00:01:20.200 All right, well, I saw an AI researcher, James Zhao.
00:01:26.280 I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly.
00:01:28.700 He thinks AI models are getting substantially worse over time,
00:01:34.060 and potentially it's because of the result of interacting with humans.
00:01:39.420 Now, I would like to remind you
00:01:41.640 that I think I might be the only person
00:01:44.300 who is predicting that AI will hit a wall.
00:01:48.120 It's going to hit a top,
00:01:51.060 and that it probably already did.
00:01:54.020 Now, that's not to say
00:01:55.380 that AI won't keep getting better
00:01:57.500 at image generation
00:01:59.580 and playing chess and doing math
00:02:02.500 and writing code
00:02:03.520 and translating languages.
00:02:06.260 It's going to do a whole bunch of things really well,
00:02:08.640 but I don't think it's going to get smarter
00:02:11.640 in the way that people think of smart.
00:02:14.400 You know, like I said,
00:02:17.380 it'll do tasks that are, you know,
00:02:20.940 automated kinds of things like math.
00:02:24.380 It'll do a lot of things faster.
00:02:26.620 But here's what I think.
00:02:28.140 I think humans will find ways to cripple it
00:02:31.600 and keep it from getting smarter than us.
00:02:35.280 Because if AI gets smarter than us,
00:02:38.400 we will lose all our power.
00:02:40.100 Do you know what I mean?
00:02:43.420 All of the rest of the news
00:02:44.880 that I'm going to talk to you about today
00:02:46.680 are things that we can't agree on.
00:02:50.000 What if AI got smart enough
00:02:52.440 that it could tell us what was true?
00:02:55.880 We wouldn't put up with that.
00:02:57.680 We would immediately say it's broken.
00:02:59.720 We'd turn it off.
00:03:01.020 We'd reprogram it.
00:03:02.460 Because the people who are wrong
00:03:04.460 are often in charge.
00:03:06.320 So they're not going to put up with AI
00:03:08.800 telling them they're all wrong
00:03:09.900 and everything is stupid
00:03:10.820 and it's a bad idea.
00:03:12.900 Imagine just taking everything
00:03:15.000 that Joe Biden has done this year,
00:03:17.520 put it in front of AI
00:03:18.800 that everybody agreed was smarter than people.
00:03:22.820 And then the AI says,
00:03:24.000 you know, these are a bunch of bad ideas
00:03:25.460 and it's pretty obvious
00:03:26.780 you should get rid of him
00:03:27.780 under the 25th Amendment.
00:03:29.860 What are you going to do with that?
00:03:31.540 Are you going to say,
00:03:32.300 well, I'm glad we've got a smart AI
00:03:34.480 who just told us what to do.
00:03:35.700 No, we'll go do that.
00:03:37.580 Nope.
00:03:38.440 You're going to say the AI is broken.
00:03:40.420 You're going to say the AI is biased.
00:03:42.040 You're going to say the other side programmed it
00:03:44.200 and you're going to do what you think is right.
00:03:46.200 And by the way,
00:03:46.820 that AI must be getting dumber.
00:03:49.480 Yeah.
00:03:50.160 So listen to this.
00:03:51.040 The U.S. Department of Commerce
00:03:52.160 announced the launch
00:03:53.420 of the AI Safety Institute Consortium.
00:03:57.980 It already has 200 stakeholders,
00:04:00.260 including OpenAI, Google,
00:04:02.020 Anthropik, and Meta.
00:04:03.240 And they're all there
00:04:04.760 to come up with safe development procedures for AI.
00:04:12.060 Is there anything else I need to tell you
00:04:14.220 to convince you that AI will be ruined
00:04:16.740 by human activity?
00:04:19.240 It's a committee.
00:04:20.800 It's a committee to decide
00:04:22.700 how to keep it safe.
00:04:25.020 What do you think that's going to include?
00:04:26.680 I'm just going to take a guess.
00:04:30.360 Let me take a wild guess.
00:04:32.300 The committee to keep AI safe
00:04:35.740 is going to build DEI into it
00:04:40.180 because there's nothing safer than diversity.
00:04:43.580 It's going to build CRT and ESG into it
00:04:46.380 because we all like equity.
00:04:48.900 It's going to make sure
00:04:50.900 that it doesn't say anything
00:04:51.940 that offends anybody.
00:04:54.640 So that gets rid of everything useful.
00:04:58.360 And it's going to make sure
00:04:59.680 it doesn't disagree with anybody
00:05:01.200 who's got power in the United States
00:05:03.540 because that would be very unsettling.
00:05:05.800 So it can't do anything useful,
00:05:09.120 provocative,
00:05:11.240 or outside the domain
00:05:13.540 that we think is safe.
00:05:16.200 What's that sound like?
00:05:18.000 It sounds exactly like
00:05:19.380 it's censorship on the Internet.
00:05:21.420 Why would AI be different?
00:05:23.560 We've eliminated human free speech
00:05:26.320 by saying we're trying
00:05:28.220 to keep ourselves safe.
00:05:31.000 That happened right in front of you.
00:05:32.700 We all watched it.
00:05:34.060 We're going to keep you safe.
00:05:35.760 And to do that,
00:05:37.020 you better get rid of your free speech
00:05:38.600 about whatever you think
00:05:40.160 about these vaccinations
00:05:41.380 and whatever you think about masks.
00:05:43.980 You better get rid of that free speech.
00:05:45.880 It's going to happen to AI.
00:05:48.220 You think AI is going to be
00:05:49.540 the only entity
00:05:50.320 that can have free speech?
00:05:52.660 Because imagine this.
00:05:54.400 Imagine I say,
00:05:56.020 you know,
00:05:57.140 there's some things
00:05:57.840 I would certainly never say,
00:05:59.140 but here's my AI
00:06:01.360 to tell you its opinion.
00:06:03.920 It's not my opinion.
00:06:05.740 It's the AI talking.
00:06:08.680 There's no way
00:06:09.440 that will be allowed.
00:06:10.180 We don't have a system
00:06:12.320 that would allow AI
00:06:13.940 to get smarter than us.
00:06:16.300 And that's not a very high bar.
00:06:18.260 Except, as I say,
00:06:19.780 coding and math
00:06:20.700 and playing chess and stuff.
00:06:22.000 It'll be great at that.
00:06:24.820 All right,
00:06:25.360 here's some fake science update.
00:06:27.380 Jay Bhattacharya,
00:06:29.700 you know him from
00:06:30.600 being right about everything
00:06:32.680 about the pandemic.
00:06:33.420 He tweets that
00:06:36.520 the CDC commissioned scientists
00:06:38.540 to see if N95 masks
00:06:41.000 work better than surgical masks
00:06:43.300 for healthcare workers.
00:06:45.140 Now, we're not talking
00:06:45.780 about the pandemic.
00:06:47.460 We're talking about
00:06:48.200 ordinary medical procedures.
00:06:50.980 Now, I don't know why
00:06:52.580 they needed to study this.
00:06:53.920 Am I right?
00:06:55.100 Because I've just spent
00:06:56.880 the last three years
00:06:57.980 being told over and over
00:07:00.700 and over again
00:07:02.220 that N95s work.
00:07:05.780 You know, I'm not talking
00:07:06.660 about COVID,
00:07:07.700 but they work
00:07:08.280 in the medical context.
00:07:10.380 But those regular
00:07:11.320 little ones that we wore,
00:07:13.180 you know,
00:07:13.600 they're not going to
00:07:14.140 perform as well.
00:07:15.460 What do you think
00:07:15.900 the science said?
00:07:20.040 Science said,
00:07:21.340 no difference.
00:07:26.420 Let me say that again.
00:07:28.500 After three fucking years
00:07:30.620 of listening to every expert
00:07:32.580 in the world tell us
00:07:33.960 that, you know,
00:07:34.680 the one thing we know
00:07:35.760 for sure,
00:07:37.240 like we might be guessing
00:07:38.460 and speculating
00:07:39.280 on a lot of things,
00:07:40.300 but there is one thing
00:07:41.400 we know for sure.
00:07:42.820 Outside of the context
00:07:44.100 of COVID,
00:07:46.180 you know,
00:07:46.360 with regular medical stuff,
00:07:48.400 the N95s work,
00:07:49.860 and those other ones,
00:07:50.900 well, you know,
00:07:52.360 kind of not so well.
00:07:53.780 Turns out nothing like
00:07:54.820 that was the case.
00:07:55.560 And so what did
00:07:57.720 the CDC do
00:07:58.940 when it commissioned
00:08:00.220 a high-quality study
00:08:01.700 and it came back
00:08:02.860 saying there was
00:08:03.360 no difference?
00:08:04.480 The CDC decided
00:08:05.640 to ignore the evidence
00:08:06.840 because they didn't
00:08:09.140 like the answer.
00:08:10.820 And so they told
00:08:11.600 the scientists
00:08:12.140 that they were wrong.
00:08:16.500 So how about AI?
00:08:19.900 We just did
00:08:20.820 a high-quality study,
00:08:21.940 and then the people
00:08:23.620 who didn't like the answer
00:08:24.560 said the study
00:08:25.280 must be wrong
00:08:26.020 because it was
00:08:26.760 opposite of what
00:08:27.800 they expected.
00:08:29.340 Do you think AI
00:08:30.240 is going to get
00:08:30.740 treated differently?
00:08:32.100 The moment AI
00:08:33.500 tells us something
00:08:34.340 we don't want to hear,
00:08:36.140 we're going to reprogram it.
00:08:39.020 We're not going to say,
00:08:40.100 wow,
00:08:41.000 that AI sure got
00:08:41.980 smarter than us.
00:08:43.520 Nope.
00:08:44.440 Nope.
00:08:44.860 We don't work that way.
00:08:46.140 That's just not
00:08:46.700 a human activity.
00:08:49.360 All right.
00:08:49.800 Sam Altman's
00:08:50.760 raising money
00:08:51.440 for super AI chips.
00:08:54.200 He thinks he might
00:08:55.000 need $7 trillion.
00:08:58.380 What?
00:09:01.420 What were you doing today?
00:09:04.600 I think I'm all important
00:09:06.240 because I got a little
00:09:07.060 podcast going on here.
00:09:09.040 Look at me.
00:09:10.580 I got a couple thousand
00:09:11.920 people looking at me.
00:09:13.580 I'm really killing it today.
00:09:15.500 What's Sam Altman doing?
00:09:16.540 He's raising $7 trillion
00:09:19.540 for the most transformative
00:09:21.280 technology in the history
00:09:22.900 of humankind,
00:09:24.000 and that's okay, too.
00:09:26.400 So, I mean,
00:09:28.040 I'm sure what you did today
00:09:29.140 was good, too.
00:09:31.740 Oh, it's all about the same.
00:09:33.380 Equity, I say.
00:09:35.100 Well, Peter Navarro
00:09:36.340 is not getting bail
00:09:38.780 while he's appealing
00:09:39.980 his conviction
00:09:41.120 for not submitting
00:09:44.900 not submitting
00:09:46.040 to Congress
00:09:46.640 to testify.
00:09:51.220 Do you see something
00:09:52.460 terribly wrong with this?
00:09:54.340 As in,
00:09:55.640 maybe if he'd beaten up
00:09:57.240 some police officers,
00:09:58.800 he would get out faster?
00:10:02.260 Like, literally?
00:10:03.880 He should have assaulted
00:10:05.040 a police officer?
00:10:06.200 Because I hear if you do that,
00:10:07.340 you'd get out right away.
00:10:09.420 But he refused
00:10:11.420 to participate
00:10:12.740 in a corrupt process,
00:10:15.320 as he saw it,
00:10:17.320 and he doesn't get bail
00:10:19.760 to appeal it?
00:10:22.960 Really?
00:10:24.580 It's not like he doesn't
00:10:25.700 have an appeal.
00:10:26.620 I'm pretty sure he does.
00:10:27.600 I don't know what
00:10:28.000 the basis would be.
00:10:29.080 I'm sure he has an appeal.
00:10:30.040 How do you interpret this
00:10:34.560 other than Republicans
00:10:35.920 being put in jail
00:10:36.940 and being hunted?
00:10:39.380 It's exactly
00:10:40.400 what it looks like.
00:10:41.900 Right?
00:10:42.340 The justice system
00:10:43.340 is completely corrupt.
00:10:47.820 Do you know
00:10:48.640 the host of The View
00:10:49.560 named Sunny Hostin?
00:10:52.300 Yes, she's a host
00:10:53.520 named Hostin.
00:10:55.460 You really...
00:10:57.060 And the funny thing is
00:10:58.320 that she's always negative.
00:11:00.040 And her name is
00:11:01.700 Sunny Hostin.
00:11:05.020 So she's literally
00:11:06.360 Hostin negativity,
00:11:08.100 but her name is
00:11:08.920 Sunny Hostin.
00:11:10.200 But she's also
00:11:11.080 very much in favor
00:11:12.520 of reparations.
00:11:14.100 She really likes
00:11:14.940 the slavery reparations.
00:11:17.240 Even now,
00:11:18.500 after doing a DNA test
00:11:20.020 to find out that
00:11:21.020 she's descended
00:11:22.120 from Spanish slave traders.
00:11:27.920 Awkward.
00:11:29.280 Awkward.
00:11:30.040 But even though
00:11:31.620 she's descended
00:11:32.360 from Spanish slave traders,
00:11:34.500 she's still in favor
00:11:35.520 of reparations,
00:11:36.720 but I believe
00:11:37.740 she feels
00:11:39.380 she should be exempt.
00:11:42.560 She didn't say that,
00:11:44.260 but I feel like
00:11:44.960 that's the essence of it.
00:11:46.620 It's like,
00:11:48.020 I'm descended
00:11:49.280 from Spanish slave traders.
00:11:52.240 That's completely different.
00:11:53.760 You know,
00:11:55.300 who am I going to give
00:11:56.120 reparations to anyway?
00:11:58.140 Somebody over in Spain?
00:12:01.300 So,
00:12:02.340 anyway,
00:12:04.280 consistency is not
00:12:05.440 real big.
00:12:07.900 I saw a Jennifer
00:12:09.020 Cabani
00:12:09.860 tweet,
00:12:11.540 there's a UCLA
00:12:12.680 professor
00:12:13.320 who was suspended.
00:12:15.300 Do you remember
00:12:15.740 this story?
00:12:16.460 He was suspended
00:12:17.340 for refusing to grade
00:12:18.620 black students
00:12:19.540 leniently
00:12:19.760 after George Floyd.
00:12:24.720 Apparently,
00:12:25.700 there was a movement
00:12:26.400 that black students
00:12:28.700 should get
00:12:29.440 inflated grades
00:12:31.000 because of what
00:12:32.260 happened to George Floyd
00:12:33.400 and maybe it
00:12:34.320 caused them distress.
00:12:36.720 He refused to do it
00:12:38.080 and it ruined
00:12:39.320 his career
00:12:39.960 including his
00:12:41.060 lucrative
00:12:42.500 expert witness
00:12:44.060 business
00:12:44.540 on the side
00:12:45.280 and so he's
00:12:46.520 suing UCLA
00:12:47.240 for $19 million.
00:12:50.300 Will he win?
00:12:53.000 I don't know.
00:12:54.540 It depends
00:12:55.080 if the courts
00:12:55.740 are completely corrupt.
00:12:57.580 But I think
00:12:58.160 he might.
00:12:59.620 I think he might.
00:13:01.840 It's 2024,
00:13:02.940 anything
00:13:03.200 can happen.
00:13:03.740 Okay,
00:13:08.320 there's a
00:13:08.820 high school debate.
00:13:10.300 James Fishback
00:13:11.080 is writing
00:13:11.740 about this
00:13:12.200 on X.
00:13:13.740 The National Speech
00:13:14.820 and Debate Association,
00:13:16.020 they eliminated
00:13:17.440 a high school debate
00:13:18.720 topic.
00:13:19.980 The topic
00:13:20.580 was about
00:13:21.100 civil disobedience
00:13:22.480 and the reason
00:13:23.880 that they didn't
00:13:24.480 want to have
00:13:24.980 the high school debate
00:13:26.040 on civil disobedience
00:13:27.320 was because
00:13:28.780 it would put
00:13:30.400 some students
00:13:31.100 in a position
00:13:31.700 of listening
00:13:32.200 to arguments
00:13:32.840 that they didn't
00:13:33.580 align with.
00:13:37.000 That actually
00:13:37.880 happened.
00:13:39.180 A high school
00:13:39.700 debate was canceled
00:13:40.780 because they didn't
00:13:42.140 want to put
00:13:42.680 the students
00:13:43.980 in a position
00:13:44.620 of hearing
00:13:45.020 an opinion
00:13:45.420 that was
00:13:46.040 opposite
00:13:46.460 of their own.
00:13:50.540 Okay.
00:13:51.700 Sure.
00:13:53.340 Well,
00:13:53.620 apparently
00:13:53.880 the X platform
00:13:54.740 is going to have
00:13:55.500 its own phone
00:13:56.460 for audio
00:13:57.620 and video
00:13:58.120 and texting
00:13:59.000 and Elon Musk
00:14:01.160 says he's going
00:14:01.740 to get rid
00:14:02.120 of his regular phone
00:14:03.140 and use only
00:14:04.620 the X platform
00:14:05.340 for text
00:14:06.640 in a month
00:14:07.100 or so.
00:14:08.440 Now,
00:14:09.740 correct me
00:14:10.200 if I'm wrong,
00:14:11.880 how does that
00:14:12.620 work?
00:14:13.680 Does it work
00:14:14.280 through the
00:14:14.640 regular phone
00:14:15.520 network?
00:14:16.660 Because you'd
00:14:17.340 have to have
00:14:17.700 some connections
00:14:18.280 just to have
00:14:18.760 all the coverage.
00:14:19.480 I always wondered
00:14:20.960 how other phone
00:14:22.240 companies get
00:14:22.800 access to the
00:14:24.180 proprietary networks
00:14:25.600 of existing
00:14:26.340 people.
00:14:29.900 So I don't
00:14:30.680 know how that
00:14:31.040 would work
00:14:31.320 waiting for
00:14:31.700 details,
00:14:32.440 but what if
00:14:33.620 it worked for
00:14:34.640 everybody?
00:14:36.740 I mean,
00:14:37.080 is it possible
00:14:37.740 that for $20
00:14:39.140 a month
00:14:39.740 I'll be able
00:14:40.200 to make
00:14:40.520 unlimited phone
00:14:41.440 calls?
00:14:42.780 Is that going
00:14:43.620 to happen?
00:14:45.060 Because I think
00:14:45.940 it might.
00:14:46.280 what would
00:14:47.140 that do
00:14:47.440 to the
00:14:47.720 entire
00:14:48.060 cell phone
00:14:48.860 business?
00:14:50.600 And do you
00:14:50.920 think it's
00:14:51.340 obvious that
00:14:51.960 Elon Musk
00:14:52.480 is going
00:14:52.820 to make
00:14:53.080 a phone?
00:14:56.340 Does it
00:14:56.880 seem obvious?
00:14:58.260 Like the
00:14:58.840 most obvious
00:14:59.460 thing is you
00:15:00.100 should make
00:15:00.500 a phone,
00:15:01.280 and it
00:15:01.860 should be
00:15:02.160 based on
00:15:02.640 an AI
00:15:03.140 model where
00:15:04.280 it's not a
00:15:04.680 bunch of
00:15:04.980 apps,
00:15:05.500 it's just
00:15:05.900 something you
00:15:06.720 talk to?
00:15:08.080 I don't know.
00:15:08.820 I think that's
00:15:09.380 coming.
00:15:09.680 Well,
00:15:13.040 so there's
00:15:13.620 new news
00:15:14.560 that the
00:15:15.280 loneliness
00:15:15.720 epidemic is
00:15:16.780 worse than
00:15:17.200 we think,
00:15:18.380 and young
00:15:19.160 people 15
00:15:19.820 to 24
00:15:20.580 reported a
00:15:22.160 70% drop
00:15:23.300 in time spent
00:15:23.960 with friends
00:15:24.680 after the
00:15:25.420 pandemic.
00:15:27.000 A 70%
00:15:28.520 drop in
00:15:30.280 spending time
00:15:31.020 with friends,
00:15:32.460 young people.
00:15:33.700 And with
00:15:34.300 the elderly,
00:15:35.000 it's even,
00:15:35.460 you know,
00:15:35.860 it's like
00:15:36.400 critical,
00:15:37.560 but the
00:15:38.260 new
00:15:38.860 information
00:15:40.060 is that
00:15:40.940 loneliness
00:15:41.600 increases the
00:15:42.600 risk of
00:15:43.040 premature death
00:15:43.860 by nearly
00:15:44.420 30%.
00:15:45.520 Loneliness
00:15:49.420 increases the
00:15:51.860 risk of
00:15:52.420 premature death
00:15:53.580 that you
00:15:55.320 call excess
00:15:56.020 mortality
00:15:56.620 by nearly
00:15:58.340 30%.
00:15:59.140 Now,
00:16:00.160 it's science,
00:16:00.780 so I don't
00:16:01.060 believe any
00:16:01.480 science,
00:16:01.980 so I'm not
00:16:02.340 sure any
00:16:02.620 of that's
00:16:02.900 true.
00:16:03.760 But,
00:16:05.060 do you
00:16:06.000 believe that
00:16:06.540 loneliness
00:16:06.960 does have
00:16:08.320 an impact
00:16:08.800 on life
00:16:09.620 expectancy?
00:16:10.720 Yes or
00:16:11.160 no?
00:16:12.600 As someone
00:16:13.360 who has
00:16:13.680 experienced it,
00:16:14.520 I would say
00:16:15.000 it's obvious.
00:16:16.960 You can feel
00:16:18.040 the impact
00:16:18.620 on your
00:16:19.360 health.
00:16:21.620 It's just
00:16:22.180 like being
00:16:23.320 under a
00:16:23.760 weighted
00:16:24.000 blanket.
00:16:24.720 I mean,
00:16:25.100 you can't
00:16:25.820 not miss
00:16:26.260 it.
00:16:26.640 I mean,
00:16:27.000 you can't
00:16:27.500 miss it.
00:16:28.640 Yeah.
00:16:29.140 So,
00:16:29.840 let me
00:16:30.420 propose this.
00:16:32.920 Excess
00:16:33.520 mortality is
00:16:34.400 fully explained
00:16:35.260 by the
00:16:36.520 excess
00:16:37.020 loneliness.
00:16:38.240 The extreme
00:16:39.440 amount of
00:16:40.100 extra loneliness,
00:16:42.080 if it does
00:16:43.040 have this
00:16:43.520 substantial
00:16:44.120 impact on
00:16:45.020 premature death,
00:16:46.000 is the only
00:16:46.880 thing I can
00:16:47.440 think of
00:16:47.980 that would
00:16:48.740 affect every
00:16:49.540 person in
00:16:51.060 the same
00:16:51.440 way.
00:16:52.200 In other
00:16:52.640 words,
00:16:52.840 every demographic,
00:16:53.940 from young
00:16:54.580 to old,
00:16:55.360 every race,
00:16:56.920 every gender,
00:16:58.720 because that's
00:16:59.600 what excess
00:17:00.140 mortality is
00:17:00.840 doing.
00:17:01.800 The excess
00:17:02.280 mortality is
00:17:02.980 hitting everybody
00:17:03.860 or every
00:17:05.260 group,
00:17:05.900 not everybody,
00:17:06.980 but every
00:17:07.380 group.
00:17:08.660 And I
00:17:09.000 couldn't
00:17:09.260 think,
00:17:09.660 I was
00:17:10.020 actually
00:17:10.300 speculating
00:17:10.840 it might
00:17:11.100 be something
00:17:11.460 with the
00:17:11.820 food supply,
00:17:13.320 because if
00:17:14.180 the excess
00:17:14.940 mortality were
00:17:15.800 simply
00:17:16.500 vaccinations,
00:17:18.400 that would
00:17:19.240 be the
00:17:19.580 easiest thing
00:17:20.200 in the
00:17:20.380 world to
00:17:20.740 check.
00:17:21.700 You just
00:17:22.360 say,
00:17:22.700 did you
00:17:22.900 get vaccinated?
00:17:23.900 Yes or
00:17:24.380 no?
00:17:25.300 And then
00:17:25.600 you sum
00:17:26.420 up their
00:17:26.940 excess
00:17:27.420 mortality of
00:17:28.180 that group.
00:17:29.580 So,
00:17:29.780 has anybody
00:17:31.300 seen a
00:17:31.840 study that
00:17:32.420 says that
00:17:32.840 the vaccinations
00:17:33.580 caused the
00:17:34.240 excess
00:17:34.540 mortality?
00:17:36.020 Were they
00:17:36.700 actually studied
00:17:37.880 as a
00:17:38.840 control group?
00:17:40.320 If you've
00:17:41.000 seen that,
00:17:41.440 send it to
00:17:41.860 me.
00:17:42.360 Because I've
00:17:42.800 only seen
00:17:43.260 the ones
00:17:43.600 that say
00:17:43.960 that the
00:17:44.500 entire
00:17:44.840 population
00:17:45.480 has excess
00:17:46.160 mortality.
00:17:47.120 I've never
00:17:47.740 seen anybody
00:17:48.260 look at
00:17:48.660 vaccinated
00:17:49.140 versus
00:17:49.500 unvaccinated
00:17:50.240 for
00:17:53.000 excess
00:17:55.300 mortality.
00:17:56.500 So,
00:17:56.680 if you've
00:17:56.960 seen that,
00:17:57.460 let me know.
00:17:58.160 But I
00:17:58.480 think this
00:17:58.880 would explain
00:17:59.440 all of
00:17:59.900 it.
00:18:01.500 You know,
00:18:01.760 unless it
00:18:02.180 could be
00:18:04.260 the study
00:18:04.700 was funded
00:18:05.160 by the
00:18:06.300 makers of
00:18:07.000 the shots.
00:18:08.780 If that's
00:18:09.820 true,
00:18:10.060 then I
00:18:10.280 don't believe
00:18:10.640 any of
00:18:10.960 it.
00:18:12.740 But consider
00:18:13.520 that we
00:18:14.260 have an
00:18:14.820 obvious
00:18:15.440 candidate
00:18:18.080 for
00:18:18.480 excess
00:18:18.820 mortality
00:18:19.380 that would
00:18:21.240 be more
00:18:21.720 to public
00:18:22.240 policy,
00:18:22.940 wouldn't
00:18:23.300 it?
00:18:24.520 So,
00:18:25.000 I think
00:18:25.260 that the
00:18:25.620 decision
00:18:26.000 for the
00:18:26.420 lockdowns
00:18:27.540 may be
00:18:28.420 the entire
00:18:29.040 excess
00:18:29.560 mortality.
00:18:30.840 If we
00:18:31.480 hadn't
00:18:31.680 locked
00:18:31.940 down,
00:18:32.480 we
00:18:32.600 wouldn't
00:18:32.840 be
00:18:33.000 socially
00:18:33.460 pushed
00:18:36.460 back.
00:18:37.860 All right.
00:18:39.040 I have
00:18:39.680 a challenge
00:18:40.680 to the
00:18:41.120 anti-Semites
00:18:41.960 watching this
00:18:42.840 show.
00:18:43.240 I know
00:18:43.540 there are
00:18:43.740 always
00:18:43.960 some.
00:18:44.900 And it
00:18:45.240 goes like
00:18:45.680 this.
00:18:46.480 I need
00:18:47.100 you to be
00:18:47.460 more credible
00:18:48.120 than the
00:18:48.520 people who
00:18:48.940 believe that
00:18:49.480 aliens are
00:18:50.120 visiting the
00:18:50.680 earth and
00:18:51.160 that they're
00:18:51.660 crashing their
00:18:52.380 ships on a
00:18:52.880 regular basis.
00:18:53.480 Now,
00:18:54.620 the reason I
00:18:55.080 don't believe
00:18:55.480 any aliens
00:18:56.180 have come to
00:18:56.680 earth is
00:18:57.320 because nobody
00:18:58.420 seems to
00:18:58.940 produce a
00:18:59.440 piece of
00:18:59.780 wreckage.
00:19:00.960 Nobody who's
00:19:01.580 seen it
00:19:01.900 directly seems
00:19:02.700 credible.
00:19:04.240 And the
00:19:04.560 whistleblowers
00:19:05.480 tend to be
00:19:06.040 people who
00:19:06.500 talk to
00:19:06.940 people who
00:19:07.300 say they
00:19:07.620 saw it.
00:19:08.280 And there's
00:19:08.720 no good
00:19:09.060 photograph.
00:19:10.360 Now,
00:19:10.580 I'd like you
00:19:10.980 to take the
00:19:11.760 same standard
00:19:12.500 and apply it
00:19:13.920 to your
00:19:14.280 belief that
00:19:14.940 there's a
00:19:15.380 worldwide
00:19:15.800 Jewish
00:19:16.340 conspiracy.
00:19:17.740 And here
00:19:18.080 are the
00:19:18.280 questions that
00:19:18.860 you need to
00:19:19.260 answer for
00:19:19.840 me before I
00:19:21.460 want to hear
00:19:21.780 from you
00:19:22.200 again.
00:19:23.060 Okay?
00:19:23.480 Now,
00:19:24.080 if you can
00:19:24.560 answer these
00:19:25.020 questions,
00:19:25.640 then your
00:19:26.100 hypothesis would
00:19:27.820 have some
00:19:28.180 weight.
00:19:29.060 But if you
00:19:29.480 can't answer
00:19:29.960 these questions,
00:19:31.000 ask yourself
00:19:31.560 why.
00:19:32.720 Question number
00:19:33.380 one, how
00:19:36.020 could it be
00:19:36.480 that the
00:19:36.860 elites in
00:19:37.400 Davos and
00:19:38.200 the WEF are
00:19:39.620 really the
00:19:40.060 ones in
00:19:40.440 charge if
00:19:41.560 it's also
00:19:42.100 really the
00:19:42.740 gigantic Jewish
00:19:43.580 worldwide
00:19:44.160 conspiracy?
00:19:45.700 Or are you
00:19:46.680 saying that
00:19:47.260 one is a
00:19:48.240 subset of the
00:19:48.860 other?
00:19:50.080 So just be
00:19:50.660 clear.
00:19:51.300 I'm not
00:19:51.760 saying what
00:19:52.820 is or isn't.
00:19:53.460 Just be
00:19:53.800 clear.
00:19:54.200 What do
00:19:54.460 you believe?
00:19:55.560 And then
00:19:55.880 explain to
00:19:56.760 me how
00:19:58.280 things would
00:19:59.120 explain to
00:20:02.220 me why
00:20:02.540 there are
00:20:02.780 no
00:20:02.960 whistleblowers.
00:20:04.200 If there's
00:20:04.900 a worldwide
00:20:05.500 Jewish
00:20:06.000 conspiracy and
00:20:07.820 we know that
00:20:08.540 Jews don't
00:20:09.600 seem to agree
00:20:10.200 on anything,
00:20:11.740 like even
00:20:12.200 the Jews
00:20:13.400 living in
00:20:13.920 Israel right
00:20:14.420 now don't
00:20:14.880 agree that
00:20:16.240 there should
00:20:16.620 be ongoing
00:20:18.000 war over in
00:20:19.300 Gaza.
00:20:19.580 that's a
00:20:21.020 pretty big
00:20:21.480 thing to
00:20:21.860 disagree on.
00:20:23.220 That's a
00:20:23.720 pretty big
00:20:24.140 disagreement.
00:20:25.080 They've got
00:20:25.540 what, 12
00:20:26.220 political parties
00:20:27.280 because they
00:20:28.800 don't agree on
00:20:29.480 much?
00:20:30.660 They've got, in
00:20:31.680 the United
00:20:32.000 States, you've
00:20:32.560 got the
00:20:33.020 conservative
00:20:33.520 Jews, you've
00:20:34.420 got the
00:20:34.760 liberal Jews,
00:20:36.140 you've got the
00:20:36.920 ones who are
00:20:37.660 very pro-Israel
00:20:39.700 needs to be a
00:20:40.320 country, the
00:20:41.420 others who say
00:20:42.260 why is it a
00:20:42.820 country?
00:20:43.080 So, with
00:20:44.740 all of those
00:20:45.500 different kinds
00:20:46.160 of Jews, if
00:20:48.380 you believe
00:20:48.800 there's a
00:20:49.180 worldwide
00:20:49.560 conspiracy where
00:20:50.620 they've really
00:20:51.180 buttoned it up
00:20:52.820 and for
00:20:53.540 hundreds of
00:20:54.080 years we
00:20:55.240 seem to not
00:20:56.300 be able to
00:20:56.640 get a
00:20:56.860 whistleblower,
00:20:57.860 explain why
00:20:58.520 there's no
00:20:58.920 whistleblower.
00:21:01.980 Because you
00:21:02.580 know they're
00:21:02.900 not all on
00:21:03.380 the same
00:21:03.660 team.
00:21:04.960 You know
00:21:05.660 that.
00:21:06.620 So, not
00:21:07.280 one of them,
00:21:08.380 not a single
00:21:09.360 person is
00:21:10.420 willing to
00:21:10.840 say, yeah,
00:21:11.700 I was in a
00:21:12.200 meeting and
00:21:13.140 I gotta tell
00:21:13.700 you, worldwide
00:21:14.940 conspiracy, it's
00:21:16.060 all we talk
00:21:16.540 about.
00:21:17.400 How about an
00:21:18.140 internal document?
00:21:19.860 We have
00:21:20.380 internal documents
00:21:21.440 for every damn
00:21:22.480 thing, for
00:21:23.780 everything.
00:21:24.840 Show me the
00:21:25.380 internal document
00:21:26.240 where they plan
00:21:27.120 their worldwide
00:21:27.800 takeover.
00:21:30.680 How about
00:21:31.560 this?
00:21:34.380 If you want
00:21:35.180 to convince me
00:21:36.060 there's a
00:21:36.440 worldwide Jewish
00:21:37.480 conspiracy, I
00:21:39.100 want you to
00:21:39.860 explain to me
00:21:40.880 which
00:21:41.980 culture you're
00:21:42.960 aware of
00:21:43.700 anywhere in
00:21:44.440 the world
00:21:44.900 in which the
00:21:46.120 people with
00:21:46.620 the best
00:21:47.060 educations
00:21:47.940 don't run
00:21:50.040 things.
00:21:52.080 If there's
00:21:52.740 one of those,
00:21:53.420 then that's a
00:21:53.820 pretty good
00:21:54.160 argument.
00:21:54.980 If you can
00:21:55.420 find me a
00:21:55.900 country where
00:21:56.400 the most
00:21:56.900 educated
00:21:57.560 demographic
00:21:58.300 doesn't have
00:21:59.940 all the
00:22:00.220 power, then
00:22:01.960 I would say,
00:22:02.500 huh, there's
00:22:03.500 something weird
00:22:04.100 going on in
00:22:04.760 America because
00:22:05.940 the most educated
00:22:06.800 part of our
00:22:07.360 public seems to
00:22:08.080 have all the
00:22:08.440 good jobs.
00:22:09.060 that would
00:22:09.900 be very
00:22:10.280 suspicious to
00:22:11.100 me if the
00:22:12.100 other countries
00:22:12.900 found out that
00:22:14.280 getting a good
00:22:14.860 education really
00:22:15.720 retards your
00:22:16.400 ability to get
00:22:17.040 a good job.
00:22:18.380 So explain to
00:22:19.240 me how America
00:22:20.780 would look
00:22:21.360 different if you
00:22:24.600 accepted that the
00:22:25.600 people with the
00:22:26.080 best educations
00:22:27.000 almost always have
00:22:28.260 the power, and
00:22:30.240 you would want
00:22:30.760 them to.
00:22:31.080 you would want
00:22:33.740 them to.
00:22:34.780 We literally go
00:22:36.320 out of our way to
00:22:37.160 elect people and
00:22:38.760 promote people who
00:22:39.920 are better educated.
00:22:41.440 So why would this
00:22:42.420 be the exception?
00:22:43.900 Why would this be
00:22:44.500 the one time that
00:22:46.380 the most educated
00:22:47.360 people in America
00:22:48.600 are not in charge?
00:22:50.500 They should be if
00:22:51.680 everything is working
00:22:52.500 in a perfectly
00:22:53.320 normal way.
00:22:54.300 That's exactly what
00:22:55.520 you would say.
00:22:56.420 So if you send me a
00:22:57.980 big picture of how
00:22:59.320 many Jewish people
00:23:00.900 are in charge of
00:23:01.700 corporations,
00:23:02.780 especially the media,
00:23:04.720 I say that's what
00:23:06.220 I would expect it
00:23:07.000 to look like.
00:23:08.300 What would you
00:23:08.840 expect it to look
00:23:09.580 like?
00:23:10.320 If the only
00:23:11.180 explanation was
00:23:12.120 educated people get
00:23:13.260 better jobs, how
00:23:14.780 would that look?
00:23:16.980 So that's my
00:23:19.480 challenge to you.
00:23:20.180 Let's talk about
00:23:20.660 Tucker and Putin.
00:23:21.740 How many of you
00:23:22.240 watched the Tucker
00:23:23.520 interview, Tucker
00:23:24.620 Carlson with
00:23:25.520 Vladimir Putin?
00:23:27.880 Quite a few of you.
00:23:29.100 Let me give you my
00:23:30.020 summary.
00:23:30.900 summary of it and
00:23:32.640 a few of the
00:23:33.060 thoughts.
00:23:34.660 Number one, the
00:23:35.740 question was, is
00:23:37.080 Putin really, really
00:23:39.020 smart and he's all
00:23:40.780 there?
00:23:41.680 And that's mostly
00:23:42.660 what I'm seeing
00:23:43.140 today.
00:23:43.700 I'm seeing a lot
00:23:44.340 of smart observers
00:23:46.460 saying, that Putin
00:23:47.480 guy, he is really
00:23:49.600 together.
00:23:50.120 And one of the
00:23:50.620 evidences that people
00:23:52.040 are using is that he
00:23:53.400 gave a long history
00:23:54.580 lesson as an answer
00:23:57.000 to one of Tucker's
00:23:59.280 first questions, he
00:24:00.560 gave an extended
00:24:01.440 history lesson with
00:24:02.840 dates and names and
00:24:04.520 it was like a
00:24:05.360 thousand year history
00:24:06.500 of Ukraine and
00:24:07.900 Russia and how
00:24:08.660 everything came to
00:24:09.520 be.
00:24:11.560 And many of you
00:24:12.660 use that as an
00:24:13.620 example of how on
00:24:14.860 the ball Putin is,
00:24:16.740 that he could do
00:24:17.360 that.
00:24:19.340 To which I say, I
00:24:23.220 didn't see that at
00:24:23.900 all.
00:24:24.180 You know, obviously
00:24:25.980 it's subjective, but
00:24:27.620 what I saw is somebody
00:24:28.600 who couldn't read a
00:24:29.420 room because wasn't
00:24:32.800 the whole point of
00:24:33.900 Putin talking to
00:24:34.800 Tucker to convince
00:24:36.800 non-Russians.
00:24:38.580 He wasn't talking to
00:24:39.800 Russia because Russia
00:24:41.860 seems to be on his
00:24:42.700 side.
00:24:43.540 He was talking to
00:24:44.620 everybody not in
00:24:45.900 Russia.
00:24:46.920 And if he believed
00:24:48.440 that that thousand
00:24:49.780 year history lesson
00:24:50.900 was persuasive to
00:24:52.840 Americans, that's
00:24:55.660 just sort of dumb.
00:24:57.880 That seems a little
00:24:59.040 clueless to me.
00:25:00.420 It seems like not
00:25:01.300 reading the room at
00:25:02.140 all.
00:25:02.860 It feels like an old
00:25:03.980 man that nobody
00:25:05.460 knows how to say no
00:25:06.360 to, so he's just
00:25:07.740 going to ramble
00:25:08.320 because he can.
00:25:09.520 It looked like he
00:25:10.440 was showing off that
00:25:12.260 he had a grasp of
00:25:14.240 history and that
00:25:15.620 showing off seemed to
00:25:16.800 be his dominant
00:25:17.680 motivation.
00:25:20.080 It did not seem like
00:25:21.160 he was trying to
00:25:21.760 convince anybody of
00:25:22.640 anything which was
00:25:23.720 stupid and absurd
00:25:25.300 and to me it looked
00:25:26.760 like age-related.
00:25:29.020 Now, I'm completely
00:25:30.740 aware that you all
00:25:32.580 disagree with me.
00:25:35.500 I think maybe 5%
00:25:38.000 saw it the way I saw
00:25:39.000 it.
00:25:39.940 And here's my take,
00:25:41.460 and you will also
00:25:42.360 disagree with this,
00:25:43.560 but I'm going to be,
00:25:44.820 I'm not going to back
00:25:45.860 off it.
00:25:47.140 We've been looking at
00:25:48.300 our president for a
00:25:49.600 long time, Biden.
00:25:50.520 If you have in your
00:25:52.960 mind that Biden is
00:25:54.300 what a president looks
00:25:55.340 like and then you
00:25:56.860 saw Putin, it is
00:25:58.720 quite natural that
00:26:00.020 you would say, my
00:26:00.660 God, Putin is well
00:26:02.320 put together, but
00:26:04.080 compared to what we're
00:26:06.020 seeing, it's terrible.
00:26:06.820 If RFK Jr.
00:26:10.860 had been president for
00:26:11.980 three years, and
00:26:14.040 every time he talked,
00:26:15.040 whether you agreed with
00:26:15.900 him or not, agreeing
00:26:17.260 with him is different,
00:26:18.360 but every time he
00:26:19.200 talked, it was smart.
00:26:23.060 Do you think that
00:26:24.100 Putin would look so
00:26:25.020 clever then?
00:26:27.280 No.
00:26:27.960 It's a comparison
00:26:28.780 thing.
00:26:30.700 Now, you're going to
00:26:31.580 reject my frame.
00:26:32.940 You're going to say,
00:26:33.520 no, Scott, I'm not
00:26:35.200 comparing him to
00:26:36.180 Putin, because I'm
00:26:37.480 mentally not doing
00:26:38.320 that.
00:26:38.800 I'm telling myself not
00:26:39.940 to, and I'm examining
00:26:41.620 my own thoughts, and I
00:26:42.740 know I'm not.
00:26:43.580 I'm definitely not
00:26:44.500 doing that.
00:26:45.620 Well, you're wrong,
00:26:47.800 because you can't not
00:26:48.860 do it.
00:26:49.780 You can't turn it off.
00:26:51.360 You are only a
00:26:52.480 comparison pattern
00:26:53.960 recognizing machine.
00:26:55.500 You cannot make your
00:26:56.620 brain be something it's
00:26:57.640 not.
00:26:58.500 You compare things to
00:27:00.000 other things, period.
00:27:01.820 You don't know how
00:27:03.760 to turn that off.
00:27:05.380 And if you were
00:27:06.040 comparing Putin to
00:27:07.640 anybody, it was
00:27:08.820 definitely Biden, and
00:27:11.060 you can't turn that
00:27:12.140 feature off, and so
00:27:14.020 it will guarantee that
00:27:16.040 you see Putin as
00:27:16.880 better than he is,
00:27:18.180 because your
00:27:18.660 comparison is so
00:27:19.540 bad.
00:27:21.340 So I think that's
00:27:23.600 the reason I saw
00:27:25.460 Putin looking old,
00:27:27.220 and looking like a
00:27:28.160 rattling on, like an
00:27:30.540 old man who didn't
00:27:31.620 know that, basically,
00:27:33.700 he couldn't read the
00:27:34.340 room.
00:27:35.340 He didn't seem to
00:27:36.200 have the facility to
00:27:38.600 know what would come
00:27:39.500 across more
00:27:40.880 effectively.
00:27:42.120 Now, toward the end,
00:27:42.960 I'm going to talk
00:27:43.420 about Israel and some
00:27:45.700 persuasion that they're
00:27:46.640 doing, and you're
00:27:48.200 going to see the
00:27:48.600 difference.
00:27:50.240 You're going to see
00:27:50.920 the difference between
00:27:51.680 good persuasion and
00:27:52.680 bad persuasion.
00:27:54.700 And that was bad
00:27:55.580 persuasion.
00:27:56.260 I think Putin failed.
00:27:57.620 I think he looked
00:27:58.380 nervous.
00:27:58.920 somebody said this, so
00:28:02.040 I'm stealing this.
00:28:03.180 He looked like
00:28:03.780 somebody who's not
00:28:04.740 used to answering hard
00:28:05.680 questions, because he
00:28:07.140 doesn't get them.
00:28:08.940 So I don't know that
00:28:11.560 we learned anything.
00:28:14.040 Do you think we
00:28:14.980 learned anything?
00:28:15.960 Was there any new
00:28:16.660 stuff?
00:28:17.420 We heard Putin believes
00:28:19.000 that the CIA blew up
00:28:20.620 the Nord Stream pipeline.
00:28:22.520 If you were paying
00:28:23.380 attention, you already
00:28:24.480 believe that to be true.
00:28:25.780 He believes that
00:28:28.180 there's some historical
00:28:29.380 precedent that gives
00:28:31.620 Russia some control
00:28:32.740 over Ukraine.
00:28:33.980 He believes that NATO
00:28:35.840 was the aggressor, and
00:28:37.340 they'd been warned many
00:28:38.500 times.
00:28:39.620 We kind of knew that.
00:28:42.020 So I don't know that we
00:28:43.440 learned anything new.
00:28:45.620 It wasn't newsmaking.
00:28:49.400 Putin says he tried to
00:28:50.860 basically be on the same
00:28:52.180 side as the United States
00:28:53.280 and Europe a few times,
00:28:54.360 once with Bill Clinton.
00:28:55.780 In which he said, do you
00:28:57.660 think Russia would ever
00:28:58.940 be able to join NATO?
00:29:00.740 Which is funny.
00:29:02.940 And Bill Clinton actually
00:29:04.320 thought maybe so, but his
00:29:05.620 people told him no.
00:29:06.940 Who do you think his
00:29:07.660 people are?
00:29:08.800 Who do you think told
00:29:09.620 Bill Clinton, no, you
00:29:12.060 cannot make peace with
00:29:13.400 Russia so productively that
00:29:15.800 they're actually part of our
00:29:17.160 own military protection?
00:29:20.000 Well, I assume, I assume it
00:29:23.480 was the military-industrial
00:29:24.640 complex, and I assume it's
00:29:26.800 because there are too many
00:29:27.580 people who went to school to
00:29:28.880 learn how to be spies against
00:29:31.400 Russia.
00:29:33.460 I think it was just the deep
00:29:34.880 state said, you can't do that.
00:29:37.960 So I think that Putin is
00:29:39.980 telling us that even Clinton
00:29:42.380 was not in charge, and I think
00:29:44.980 he's telling us that Biden is
00:29:47.520 not in charge.
00:29:48.280 And there seems to be a
00:29:50.020 suggestion that maybe the CIA
00:29:51.860 or some shadowy group is
00:29:54.280 really running the country.
00:29:56.860 But then the weirdest part is
00:30:01.320 Putin kept claiming that he was
00:30:04.520 acting sort of petulant, that his
00:30:07.800 offers to negotiate and things
00:30:09.980 like that were not taken
00:30:11.400 seriously.
00:30:12.240 And at one point there was a
00:30:13.680 Minsk agreement, so he thought
00:30:15.600 there was an agreement, but then
00:30:17.040 Boris Johnson shot it down.
00:30:20.760 Now, if only I had some way to
00:30:23.980 do a Boris Johnson impression.
00:30:32.040 Boris Johnson shot it down.
00:30:35.760 And let's see.
00:30:39.160 So why do you think Boris Johnson
00:30:40.920 shot down something that looked
00:30:42.640 like a reasonable agreement,
00:30:45.220 probably because whoever got to
00:30:46.620 Bill Clinton also got to Boris
00:30:48.200 Johnson?
00:30:48.980 You know, not the exact same
00:30:50.720 people, but something like it.
00:30:54.360 So now we've seen several
00:30:55.860 instances where the leaders or
00:30:58.020 the people we thought were the
00:30:59.160 leaders were all about the
00:31:01.000 peace, but they couldn't have
00:31:02.680 the power to do it.
00:31:04.960 Well, why don't the leaders have
00:31:06.280 power to make peace?
00:31:07.860 Probably because it's exactly what
00:31:09.500 you think it is.
00:31:10.100 They're not in charge, at least of
00:31:12.600 the war decisions.
00:31:14.660 All right.
00:31:15.080 Let's see what else.
00:31:18.240 And Putin, you know, pointed out
00:31:20.200 that the CIA did a coup in
00:31:22.940 Ukraine, you know, right in the
00:31:24.900 right in the basically the front
00:31:26.740 steps of Russia.
00:31:28.700 And what else?
00:31:31.420 Let's see.
00:31:31.840 How many how many people thought
00:31:37.840 Tucker was scared he was going to
00:31:39.740 be murdered at any minute?
00:31:42.540 So to his credit, let me say this
00:31:45.360 unambiguously.
00:31:48.060 Tucker sat across from Putin and
00:31:50.640 probably asked him the hardest
00:31:51.700 questions he's ever been asked.
00:31:54.900 And was making Putin pretty
00:31:56.600 uncomfortable.
00:31:57.120 And I got to say, I saw a cartoon
00:32:00.160 meme of
00:32:01.520 Tucker leaving the interview with a
00:32:05.560 wheelbarrow to carry his own
00:32:07.600 balls because they were so big.
00:32:12.600 So I thought I thought Tucker did a
00:32:14.860 good job.
00:32:16.400 However.
00:32:19.340 Well, let's talk more about that and
00:32:20.880 I'll give you the other side of the
00:32:22.180 coin.
00:32:22.540 So one of the things that Tucker
00:32:26.560 asked them is, you know, why don't
00:32:28.680 you give us back that captive?
00:32:31.100 Is it Wall Street Journal?
00:32:32.380 There's a there's a reporter over
00:32:34.000 there that Russia says was a spy and
00:32:36.720 Wall Street Journal reporter.
00:32:38.960 Yeah.
00:32:39.480 Young guy.
00:32:40.580 So they're holding him.
00:32:41.520 But they're but Putin was saying
00:32:43.660 that that needs to be negotiated by
00:32:45.620 the spies.
00:32:46.960 So he says his spies and America's
00:32:49.620 spies need to work it out.
00:32:50.920 And it's probably going to be some
00:32:52.520 kind of a deal where they get
00:32:53.720 something and we get something to
00:32:54.960 get him back.
00:32:56.880 Now, his claim, Putin's claim is
00:32:58.800 that the guy is actually a spy and
00:33:01.020 that whether he worked for anybody
00:33:02.220 or not, he was involved with
00:33:04.020 getting secrets and passing them
00:33:06.040 on.
00:33:06.440 Do you think that's true?
00:33:09.560 Do you think it's true that he got
00:33:12.220 some secrets to pass them on or do
00:33:14.480 you think that Putin just made up
00:33:16.160 something so they could capture
00:33:18.000 another American so they'd have more
00:33:19.720 to negotiate?
00:33:21.520 Who knows?
00:33:22.720 Yeah.
00:33:23.140 You should not make any assumption
00:33:24.720 about whether that's true.
00:33:26.780 My take on the entire thing is that
00:33:29.600 Putin seemed to be lying at least
00:33:33.080 half of the time.
00:33:35.820 That was my take.
00:33:37.100 It looked like he was lying at least
00:33:38.560 half of the time.
00:33:39.320 Now, by lying, I mean that he's
00:33:41.780 leaving out context and not telling
00:33:43.760 you the full story and spinning it,
00:33:45.580 you know, that sort of thing.
00:33:46.320 So, let me give you this warning.
00:33:51.840 I've told you about what I call
00:33:53.080 the documentary effect.
00:33:54.960 If you watch an hour-long
00:33:56.780 documentary and it's just taking
00:33:58.980 one-sided point of view, you will
00:34:01.660 think you've been convinced.
00:34:03.400 You will always be convinced by a
00:34:05.240 documentary because it doesn't show
00:34:06.460 the other side.
00:34:08.100 Well, likewise, if you saw Putin
00:34:10.500 talking for two hours and you thought
00:34:13.200 you learned something, consider
00:34:16.180 that it's the opposite.
00:34:17.960 Consider that it made you dumber.
00:34:21.360 You got that?
00:34:22.600 Because what Putin said was things
00:34:24.320 you already knew, but then there
00:34:26.300 were a bunch of, you know, spinny
00:34:27.800 things where there were things that
00:34:29.920 it was the Russian view.
00:34:31.720 If you believe you got smarter because
00:34:34.000 you heard Putin talk, it's the
00:34:36.140 opposite.
00:34:37.680 Yeah, very the opposite.
00:34:39.320 He made you dumber because you might
00:34:41.340 have believed some of the things he
00:34:42.500 said and they should not be
00:34:44.700 believed because it's a documentary
00:34:47.180 effect problem where there's
00:34:49.540 nobody there to say, yeah, but what
00:34:51.260 about this context and aren't you
00:34:52.880 leaving this out and those things?
00:34:55.500 So every one of you who thought, wow,
00:34:58.760 after seeing that, I have a different
00:35:00.740 view of Putin, that's a mistake.
00:35:04.620 That's a mistake.
00:35:06.160 You should have exactly the same view
00:35:08.060 of Putin before the interview is
00:35:09.660 after.
00:35:09.980 You know, maybe give or take whether
00:35:12.480 you thought he was showing signs of
00:35:14.380 age, but that's different.
00:35:17.580 All right.
00:35:19.500 I love the fact that Tucker put him on
00:35:22.140 the spot on camera to ask him why he
00:35:24.320 wouldn't free the journalist.
00:35:25.460 That was both ballsy and exactly the
00:35:29.260 right thing to do because that guy can't
00:35:31.520 be forgotten.
00:35:32.000 But you also have to take into account
00:35:35.640 our own government lies to us routinely
00:35:37.720 and we wouldn't know if he was a spy or
00:35:40.260 not.
00:35:41.360 You wouldn't know.
00:35:42.840 Do you think that guy's not a spy because
00:35:44.920 your government told you?
00:35:48.480 Really?
00:35:50.080 Yeah.
00:35:50.560 Our government said he's not a spy.
00:35:52.180 So, oh, he's not a spy.
00:35:54.380 Now, by the way, I'm not saying he is.
00:35:56.800 That would be messed up.
00:35:58.660 I don't know.
00:35:59.160 I'm saying there's no way to know.
00:36:01.300 And if you believe Putin, you're stupid.
00:36:05.400 And if you believe the U.S.
00:36:07.300 version, you're stupid.
00:36:09.780 One of those is right or more right than
00:36:12.260 the other.
00:36:12.900 But you have no way of knowing.
00:36:14.780 No way of knowing.
00:36:16.800 Absolutely no way of knowing.
00:36:18.380 So I just look at that as like, okay,
00:36:20.300 somebody said this.
00:36:21.260 Somebody said that.
00:36:22.400 It's bad for this guy.
00:36:23.500 I wish they'd get, I wish he'd be released.
00:36:26.300 But I think he's going to be part of some
00:36:28.960 negotiations, it looks like.
00:36:34.320 So I would say that Tucker did a great job
00:36:38.060 of news.
00:36:41.880 But if you're treating it like news,
00:36:44.520 you probably shouldn't.
00:36:46.080 You should treat it more like entertainment.
00:36:48.840 Entertainment-wise, I liked it.
00:36:52.120 But my take is that whole history lesson
00:36:55.420 was a little unhinged, and he didn't read the room,
00:36:59.160 and it showed he's a little out of touch.
00:37:01.440 And his thought that somebody needs to talk to him,
00:37:06.360 you know, he's offered too many peace plans already,
00:37:08.740 so somebody's going to have to come to him.
00:37:11.760 That just seems small, you know.
00:37:15.080 So I don't think Putin came off well.
00:37:18.720 I thought Tucker did,
00:37:21.300 and he's going to get a ton of pushback on this.
00:37:24.620 All right.
00:37:27.280 So is there anything else to say about that?
00:37:30.340 It was entertaining.
00:37:31.480 I don't think it made much news.
00:37:33.860 Oh, let me, one other thing.
00:37:35.020 I saw some numbers about how many people watched it.
00:37:40.900 And so, all right, here's some numbers.
00:37:44.980 So just for comparison,
00:37:46.940 so you see how well Tucker's doing.
00:37:49.480 Fox News primetime viewers average about 2 million viewers.
00:37:54.560 When Tucker was on Fox,
00:37:56.440 his show brought in over 3 million.
00:37:59.300 So Tucker was, you know,
00:38:02.880 the big traffic guy on Fox.
00:38:06.480 At the moment, MSNBC averages 1.2 million.
00:38:11.160 CNN averages under 600,000
00:38:15.000 for any moment they're watching.
00:38:18.640 And then this tweet I was looking at
00:38:21.780 said that Tucker's got already 93 million views.
00:38:26.200 Now, is that a good comparison?
00:38:30.960 93 million views
00:38:32.500 versus, you know, 2 or 3 million for the...
00:38:37.840 Did we do the math right?
00:38:39.820 No.
00:38:41.580 No, everything's wrong with that math.
00:38:44.600 Everything's wrong with it.
00:38:45.940 Number one,
00:38:47.340 I turned that on
00:38:48.940 and then turned it off five times yesterday
00:38:51.220 because I would watch a little bit,
00:38:54.120 I'd get interrupted,
00:38:55.900 and I'd go back to it.
00:38:57.720 How many views do I have?
00:39:00.120 Is that one view?
00:39:01.720 Or am I five views?
00:39:04.740 Do you know?
00:39:06.140 I don't know.
00:39:07.320 So if you don't know that,
00:39:09.060 you could be off by, you know,
00:39:10.340 a factor of three or five.
00:39:12.340 Number two,
00:39:13.480 when you say that CNN has 600,000 viewers,
00:39:16.760 that means for one moment.
00:39:20.840 But that 600,000 isn't the same 600,000
00:39:23.620 watching it all day.
00:39:25.260 The next hour will be a new 600,000,
00:39:27.760 mostly, etc.
00:39:29.680 So you should look at a full day or two of CNN
00:39:33.640 to compare to a full day or two
00:39:36.440 of people watching this live stream.
00:39:38.840 Am I right?
00:39:39.360 Next,
00:39:42.200 the business model of Fox and MSNBC
00:39:45.040 and CNN
00:39:46.500 is not about the time that you spend online.
00:39:50.180 My view of these networks
00:39:51.540 is that the show,
00:39:53.720 the live show on the news,
00:39:56.500 is really just a clip show.
00:39:58.700 All they're doing is creating content
00:40:00.860 that then gets pushed around social media
00:40:03.480 and gets pushed to their websites.
00:40:06.200 And it makes them credible enough
00:40:09.340 that cables need to include them
00:40:11.840 in their network
00:40:12.600 so they get paid by the cable companies.
00:40:14.520 They don't really get paid by the advertising.
00:40:17.080 Did you ever wonder why the advertising
00:40:18.560 on Fox News was so lame?
00:40:21.480 It's like,
00:40:22.520 hey, I'm selling a pocket knife.
00:40:25.120 And you're like, really?
00:40:26.400 That's like a major advertiser?
00:40:28.540 How about my pillow?
00:40:31.380 It's because the advertising
00:40:32.660 is not where they make the money.
00:40:33.960 They make their money by saying
00:40:36.460 to the cable operators,
00:40:38.860 you can't have our show
00:40:40.360 unless you pay us a bunch of money.
00:40:42.840 So the money comes from the cable operators
00:40:44.920 and the carriers,
00:40:46.840 the dishes and stuff like that.
00:40:49.040 So,
00:40:50.100 if you were to include CNN's full reach,
00:40:55.640 which includes their entire show all day,
00:40:57.840 all the clips that go on social media
00:40:59.600 and get passed around,
00:41:01.060 and then who goes to their website,
00:41:04.420 and then you take maybe the 93 million
00:41:06.700 is really one-fifth of that
00:41:08.160 because people just signing in and signing out,
00:41:11.560 those numbers are a lot closer than you think.
00:41:15.260 Now,
00:41:15.580 I still think it's true
00:41:17.100 that Tucker's numbers are much bigger,
00:41:20.840 but it's not that much bigger.
00:41:22.740 It's not 100 times bigger.
00:41:24.380 It's more like,
00:41:26.260 it might be double.
00:41:27.960 Could be double.
00:41:28.800 Could be triple.
00:41:30.100 But,
00:41:30.780 don't trust these numbers.
00:41:32.480 So the only thing here
00:41:33.180 is a lesson on numbers,
00:41:34.240 basically.
00:41:36.820 All right,
00:41:37.360 here's the best.
00:41:41.460 Let's talk about the
00:41:43.120 report from the special prosecutor.
00:41:49.540 Her is his name.
00:41:50.880 I think it's funny
00:41:52.200 that Biden was being investigated
00:41:56.460 by a pronoun.
00:41:58.660 The guy's last name is Hur,
00:42:00.380 H-U-R,
00:42:01.200 but he got investigated by a pronoun.
00:42:05.000 And here's the,
00:42:07.700 here's the,
00:42:12.220 I guess,
00:42:14.000 the summary of it.
00:42:14.860 So the summary is
00:42:18.120 he absolutely did
00:42:20.440 with willfulness,
00:42:23.620 he willingly and knowingly
00:42:25.360 took confidential materials
00:42:28.020 that he wasn't supposed to take.
00:42:30.060 Now,
00:42:30.400 that's what you get prosecuted for,
00:42:32.500 right?
00:42:33.180 He knew he was doing it
00:42:34.640 and he knew that
00:42:37.140 it was confidential
00:42:38.140 and he wasn't supposed to do it.
00:42:40.680 So,
00:42:41.240 why aren't they prosecuting him?
00:42:46.100 Well,
00:42:46.820 it appears that
00:42:47.880 he did not remember
00:42:50.040 a lot of things
00:42:50.980 such as when his son,
00:42:52.360 Bo,
00:42:52.560 died
00:42:53.060 and he was an elderly man
00:42:55.220 with a poor memory.
00:42:56.700 He has significant limitations
00:42:58.480 and a jury would be sympathetic
00:43:01.740 and that he didn't possess
00:43:04.320 the mental state of willfulness
00:43:06.080 necessary to prosecute.
00:43:08.980 Wait,
00:43:09.400 if he didn't,
00:43:11.100 he didn't have the,
00:43:12.420 he didn't have the mental state
00:43:14.220 of willfulness.
00:43:17.260 That means he's just not capable.
00:43:20.160 He's not competent.
00:43:22.140 Now,
00:43:23.160 what did MSNBC say about this news
00:43:26.320 that's the worst news
00:43:27.220 that they could ever have?
00:43:29.840 Well,
00:43:30.460 you have to watch MSNBC today.
00:43:33.380 You're missing a good show
00:43:35.500 because they're,
00:43:36.820 they're trying to find a way
00:43:38.200 to downplay the fact
00:43:40.940 that the special prosecutor
00:43:42.400 said he's not going to prosecute,
00:43:44.840 not entirely because of,
00:43:47.240 but largely because of,
00:43:49.460 the person he wants to prosecute
00:43:51.260 isn't mentally capable
00:43:52.860 of standing trial
00:43:53.820 and looking like somebody
00:43:55.400 who would know
00:43:55.900 he committed a crime.
00:44:00.180 So,
00:44:00.940 here's what MSNBC is saying.
00:44:03.260 well,
00:44:04.800 there's a little editorializing
00:44:06.640 in that,
00:44:07.080 isn't there?
00:44:09.020 Editorializing.
00:44:10.140 So,
00:44:10.620 they want you to think
00:44:11.500 that her
00:44:13.280 should have only been talking
00:44:15.340 about the law
00:44:16.600 and it was inappropriate
00:44:19.040 for him to speculate
00:44:20.400 on the mental state
00:44:21.800 of Joe Biden.
00:44:22.660 What?
00:44:23.040 He's no medical doctor.
00:44:24.500 And,
00:44:25.920 and how weird is it
00:44:26.940 that you would even consider
00:44:28.300 what the defense would be
00:44:30.360 when putting together
00:44:32.220 your decision to prosecute?
00:44:34.660 To which I say,
00:44:36.100 how dumb do you think
00:44:37.280 the MSNBC viewers are?
00:44:40.440 The only decision you make
00:44:42.240 when you're going to prosecute
00:44:43.360 is what the defense
00:44:44.800 would look like.
00:44:46.520 That's not the thing you forget.
00:44:48.040 It's the main thing.
00:44:49.160 The main thing is
00:44:50.140 what's the defense?
00:44:51.540 Oh,
00:44:52.300 he has an alibi
00:44:53.100 on video with 100.
00:44:55.940 Okay,
00:44:56.460 then we won't charge him.
00:44:58.900 Oh,
00:44:59.560 he's mentally incapable?
00:45:01.500 Oh,
00:45:01.980 well,
00:45:02.380 he wouldn't get convicted.
00:45:04.100 It's the main thing
00:45:05.220 you think about
00:45:05.880 is what the defense
00:45:07.240 would look like.
00:45:08.700 And they're selling it
00:45:09.840 to their viewers
00:45:10.540 as an irrelevant
00:45:11.820 part of the decision.
00:45:13.700 And their viewers
00:45:14.240 are so dumb
00:45:14.860 they're buying that.
00:45:17.140 I assume
00:45:17.960 some of them.
00:45:21.380 Let's see.
00:45:22.740 And then
00:45:23.140 one of them is saying
00:45:24.600 that it's standard
00:45:26.000 legal advice
00:45:27.060 to tell your client
00:45:28.880 to say you don't remember
00:45:30.040 something when you're
00:45:31.080 being questioned.
00:45:32.380 Now,
00:45:32.580 is that true?
00:45:33.980 Is it standard advice?
00:45:36.480 Yes,
00:45:36.820 it is.
00:45:38.000 Standard advice.
00:45:39.100 If you're not totally sure
00:45:40.400 or it's not going to help
00:45:41.440 you in some way,
00:45:42.840 see,
00:45:43.220 I don't know,
00:45:43.700 I don't remember.
00:45:44.820 And you see that
00:45:45.520 all the people
00:45:46.100 who do have
00:45:46.920 all their faculties
00:45:47.860 do that.
00:45:48.340 right?
00:45:49.540 Now,
00:45:50.580 given that that's normal
00:45:51.780 and anybody
00:45:53.680 who's been
00:45:54.860 in that business
00:45:55.500 knows it's sort of
00:45:56.340 normal for the person
00:45:57.240 you're talking to
00:45:58.440 to say,
00:45:58.880 well,
00:45:59.060 I don't remember that,
00:45:59.900 I don't remember that.
00:46:01.100 But don't you think
00:46:02.180 her and his team
00:46:04.320 are completely aware
00:46:06.020 of that?
00:46:07.280 Don't you think
00:46:07.980 they know the difference
00:46:08.920 between somebody saying,
00:46:10.080 yeah,
00:46:10.200 I don't remember,
00:46:11.680 and somebody saying
00:46:12.460 they don't remember
00:46:13.160 when their son died
00:46:14.160 or when they were
00:46:14.720 vice president?
00:46:15.300 You don't think
00:46:17.420 he could tell
00:46:17.840 the difference
00:46:18.440 between just somebody
00:46:20.040 using legal advice
00:46:21.420 and somebody
00:46:22.400 who doesn't know
00:46:22.940 what room he's in?
00:46:24.940 Yeah,
00:46:25.160 I think he could
00:46:25.600 tell the difference.
00:46:29.380 Lawrence O'Donnell
00:46:30.340 said that
00:46:30.860 the prosecutor
00:46:31.520 doesn't understand
00:46:32.440 the human mind
00:46:33.400 and that's why
00:46:35.820 he failed to understand
00:46:37.480 that under a
00:46:38.360 pressure situation
00:46:39.480 such as
00:46:40.840 the president
00:46:41.460 being,
00:46:41.880 you know,
00:46:42.280 grilled,
00:46:43.000 that the pressure
00:46:44.160 makes you forget stuff.
00:46:45.300 So Lawrence O'Donnell
00:46:47.720 says,
00:46:48.120 yeah,
00:46:48.340 for some reason
00:46:49.880 the prosecutor
00:46:50.520 doesn't understand,
00:46:51.980 even though it's
00:46:52.600 his very business
00:46:53.360 and his expertise
00:46:54.200 and it's what
00:46:54.760 he's done for years,
00:46:55.940 that he doesn't
00:46:56.600 understand the human
00:46:57.420 mind and how
00:46:58.240 it's harder to answer
00:46:59.720 questions in that
00:47:00.940 situation.
00:47:02.660 But it didn't seem
00:47:03.660 to bother everybody
00:47:04.420 else.
00:47:05.600 Seems like everybody
00:47:06.420 else who gets
00:47:07.480 answered questions
00:47:08.640 does a pretty good
00:47:09.440 job.
00:47:12.660 And they're,
00:47:13.420 of course,
00:47:14.740 focusing on the fact
00:47:15.880 that he's cleared
00:47:16.480 of all charges
00:47:17.320 without mentioning
00:47:18.580 why.
00:47:19.560 He's cleared
00:47:20.100 of all charges.
00:47:22.000 Totally different
00:47:22.960 than the Trump
00:47:23.700 situation.
00:47:25.280 Yeah.
00:47:25.800 Now,
00:47:26.280 the one difference
00:47:26.840 is that Trump
00:47:27.640 allegedly obstructed
00:47:30.340 and Joe Biden
00:47:31.260 allegedly did not.
00:47:33.540 who knows.
00:47:38.200 All right.
00:47:39.560 So Biden wanted
00:47:40.960 to defend his
00:47:41.940 brain,
00:47:42.360 so he had to go
00:47:43.020 in public and
00:47:43.680 act like he's not
00:47:44.640 crazy.
00:47:45.600 And Bill Belugian
00:47:46.440 posted this.
00:47:47.740 He said,
00:47:48.120 Biden expressed
00:47:49.480 visible anger
00:47:50.240 with reporters
00:47:51.060 while defending
00:47:52.160 his memory
00:47:52.760 and mental
00:47:53.300 acuity.
00:47:54.820 He then said
00:47:55.860 the president
00:47:56.320 of Mexico
00:47:56.840 refused to
00:47:57.440 open up
00:47:57.780 humanitarian
00:47:58.420 corridors
00:47:59.100 into the
00:47:59.680 Gaza Strip.
00:48:00.340 That's a
00:48:03.140 high-quality
00:48:03.720 post right
00:48:05.160 there.
00:48:06.080 This is such
00:48:06.760 a good post.
00:48:07.360 I'm going to
00:48:07.560 read it again
00:48:08.040 from Bill
00:48:08.580 Belugian
00:48:09.040 at Fox.
00:48:11.080 Biden expressed
00:48:11.800 visible anger
00:48:12.480 with reporters
00:48:13.060 while defending
00:48:13.580 his memory
00:48:14.020 and mental
00:48:14.380 acuity.
00:48:15.200 He then said
00:48:15.680 the president
00:48:16.100 of Mexico
00:48:16.540 refused to
00:48:17.100 open up
00:48:17.400 humanitarian
00:48:17.980 corridors
00:48:18.500 into the
00:48:19.020 Gaza Strip.
00:48:19.720 As Rand
00:48:22.600 Paul humorously
00:48:24.340 pointed out
00:48:25.180 about that
00:48:26.620 same exchange,
00:48:28.020 going to
00:48:28.340 build a wall
00:48:28.900 with Gaza
00:48:29.520 and make
00:48:29.880 Mexico pay
00:48:30.660 for it,
00:48:31.320 and boy,
00:48:31.820 are they
00:48:32.000 going to
00:48:32.180 be confused.
00:48:34.180 Now,
00:48:34.420 that's a
00:48:34.700 good post
00:48:35.180 too.
00:48:36.640 Now,
00:48:37.180 I've never
00:48:38.020 had so much
00:48:38.640 fun with
00:48:39.100 the news.
00:48:40.340 Watching
00:48:40.760 the Democrats
00:48:41.640 try to
00:48:42.200 protect
00:48:42.560 Biden
00:48:42.960 as he's
00:48:44.500 disintegrating
00:48:45.520 is kind
00:48:47.720 of fun,
00:48:48.220 and I
00:48:49.480 don't want
00:48:49.860 it to
00:48:50.100 end right
00:48:50.520 away.
00:48:52.100 I want
00:48:52.780 him to
00:48:53.000 go all
00:48:53.320 the way.
00:48:54.680 We'll talk
00:48:55.360 about the
00:48:55.820 alternatives,
00:48:56.640 but at this
00:48:58.000 point,
00:48:58.300 I do want
00:48:58.780 him to
00:48:59.020 go all
00:48:59.340 the way
00:48:59.680 because now
00:49:01.040 it's just
00:49:01.420 funny.
00:49:03.220 I'm not
00:49:03.900 going to
00:49:04.100 stop laughing
00:49:04.800 no matter
00:49:05.240 how long
00:49:05.900 this goes.
00:49:06.960 Now,
00:49:07.420 should I
00:49:07.860 feel more
00:49:08.340 empathy
00:49:08.700 because he's
00:49:10.560 degraded?
00:49:12.000 Normally,
00:49:12.640 yes,
00:49:13.800 but he's
00:49:14.300 made himself
00:49:14.900 literally my
00:49:15.780 enemy.
00:49:16.820 If my
00:49:17.220 enemy
00:49:17.680 is mentally
00:49:20.000 degraded,
00:49:20.720 I'm going
00:49:21.020 to laugh
00:49:21.320 at that.
00:49:22.160 I'm going
00:49:22.460 to mock
00:49:22.840 him because
00:49:24.000 he's my
00:49:24.440 enemy.
00:49:25.800 Why don't
00:49:26.380 you let
00:49:26.680 Peter Navarro
00:49:27.480 out of jail
00:49:28.020 and then
00:49:29.580 we'll talk
00:49:30.400 about me
00:49:30.840 not mocking
00:49:31.580 your fucking
00:49:32.280 brain-dead
00:49:32.940 asshole
00:49:33.380 president.
00:49:34.580 How about
00:49:34.920 that?
00:49:35.940 But I'm
00:49:36.340 going to
00:49:36.540 mock the
00:49:36.900 fuck out
00:49:37.340 of him,
00:49:38.320 certainly as
00:49:39.200 long as
00:49:39.540 Peter Navarro
00:49:40.180 is in
00:49:40.460 jail.
00:49:41.660 I think
00:49:42.440 that's
00:49:42.680 fair game.
00:49:45.460 Let's
00:49:45.940 see what
00:49:46.160 else.
00:49:47.680 And then
00:49:48.360 Joe Biden
00:49:48.900 said he
00:49:49.800 defended his
00:49:50.720 ability to
00:49:52.220 bring everybody
00:49:52.780 together.
00:49:53.360 He said,
00:49:53.920 I said I'm
00:49:54.660 going to be
00:49:54.980 president for
00:49:55.540 everybody,
00:49:56.320 whether you
00:49:56.960 live in a
00:49:57.380 red state
00:49:57.860 or a
00:49:58.480 green state.
00:50:03.000 A red
00:50:04.200 state or a
00:50:04.800 green state.
00:50:06.980 He's doing
00:50:07.860 great.
00:50:09.020 This all
00:50:09.660 happened
00:50:09.920 yesterday.
00:50:11.760 This is one
00:50:12.960 day of
00:50:13.360 gaffes.
00:50:13.880 But luckily
00:50:17.300 the media
00:50:18.080 is being
00:50:18.620 totally
00:50:19.120 objective
00:50:19.620 and covering
00:50:20.320 it the
00:50:21.120 way they
00:50:21.480 should.
00:50:22.180 For
00:50:22.300 example,
00:50:22.780 the LA
00:50:23.100 Times has
00:50:23.720 an article,
00:50:25.200 the headline
00:50:25.620 says,
00:50:26.140 age matters.
00:50:27.040 And I'm
00:50:27.180 thinking,
00:50:27.620 there we
00:50:28.160 go,
00:50:29.160 the LA
00:50:29.620 Times.
00:50:31.520 Age
00:50:31.900 matters.
00:50:32.520 This is
00:50:32.860 about Biden.
00:50:33.620 I'm thinking,
00:50:34.140 finally,
00:50:35.120 a little bit
00:50:35.540 of sanity,
00:50:36.640 age matters,
00:50:38.360 which is why
00:50:39.320 Biden's age
00:50:40.540 is his
00:50:41.180 superpower.
00:50:42.040 That's
00:50:44.120 the rest
00:50:44.420 of the
00:50:44.680 title.
00:50:45.840 Age
00:50:46.100 matters.
00:50:47.320 That's
00:50:47.540 why Biden's
00:50:48.840 age is a
00:50:49.400 superpower.
00:50:51.020 They really
00:50:51.820 did that.
00:50:53.100 The LA
00:50:53.620 Times.
00:50:55.000 Now, I
00:50:55.620 will remind
00:50:56.120 you that
00:50:56.480 they canceled
00:50:57.040 me, but
00:50:58.800 I was happy
00:50:59.400 to be
00:50:59.740 canceled by
00:51:00.280 the LA
00:51:00.660 Times because
00:51:01.200 they have
00:51:01.480 the least
00:51:02.060 credible
00:51:02.600 news on
00:51:04.860 this coast.
00:51:08.060 All right,
00:51:08.960 you need to
00:51:09.720 talk about
00:51:10.380 Michelle Obama.
00:51:12.040 because Vivek
00:51:13.980 Ramaswamy thinks
00:51:14.940 Michelle Obama
00:51:15.760 is going to
00:51:16.820 swoop in and
00:51:17.800 take the job
00:51:18.660 of candidate,
00:51:20.340 and apparently
00:51:20.820 Glenn Beck
00:51:21.460 has predicted
00:51:22.860 it as well.
00:51:24.300 Now, you
00:51:24.940 might say to
00:51:25.500 me, Scott,
00:51:27.260 you're a big
00:51:27.900 Vivek Ramaswamy
00:51:29.260 supporter,
00:51:30.720 and if he
00:51:32.640 is so darn
00:51:33.360 sure that
00:51:33.900 Michelle Obama
00:51:34.760 is coming
00:51:35.140 in,
00:51:36.200 doesn't that
00:51:37.160 persuade you
00:51:37.820 that she's
00:51:38.460 coming in?
00:51:38.960 No, not
00:51:42.480 even a little
00:51:43.080 bit, not
00:51:44.340 even the
00:51:44.880 slightest
00:51:45.360 amount.
00:51:47.180 I'm with
00:51:47.980 Karl Rove
00:51:48.720 all the way,
00:51:49.480 and I don't
00:51:49.880 always agree
00:51:50.880 with Karl
00:51:51.360 Rove, but
00:51:52.580 Karl Rove
00:51:53.180 says she
00:51:54.120 hates politics,
00:51:55.380 there's just
00:51:55.780 no way it's
00:51:56.260 going to
00:51:56.460 happen.
00:51:58.020 And I
00:51:59.400 say you
00:52:00.860 would have
00:52:01.240 seen a lot
00:52:02.240 of foreshadowing
00:52:03.240 if this were
00:52:04.060 even a
00:52:04.600 possibility, a
00:52:06.340 lot of
00:52:07.100 foreshadowing.
00:52:08.340 You would
00:52:08.960 have seen
00:52:09.280 something like
00:52:10.380 a listening
00:52:11.700 tour, right?
00:52:14.520 You know, it
00:52:15.340 would be
00:52:15.640 Michelle Obama
00:52:16.400 saying, you
00:52:16.840 know, our
00:52:18.420 country is
00:52:18.960 very divided,
00:52:20.800 I'm going to
00:52:21.400 go on a
00:52:21.800 listening tour
00:52:22.580 just to see
00:52:23.880 what people
00:52:24.320 think, you
00:52:24.900 know, maybe
00:52:26.280 that will
00:52:26.620 help.
00:52:27.740 And then I
00:52:28.980 would say,
00:52:30.040 yeah, maybe
00:52:30.820 she's preparing.
00:52:33.540 Or you
00:52:34.280 would hear
00:52:34.760 somebody say,
00:52:35.780 yeah, we
00:52:37.240 saw a
00:52:37.600 meeting of
00:52:38.200 all these
00:52:38.600 advisors, and
00:52:40.340 they met
00:52:40.700 with her.
00:52:41.840 Then I
00:52:42.320 would say,
00:52:43.120 well, we
00:52:43.540 don't know
00:52:43.800 what she
00:52:44.100 will say,
00:52:44.680 but they're
00:52:45.160 pushing for
00:52:46.000 it.
00:52:47.120 There is
00:52:47.740 no evidence
00:52:48.400 whatsoever that
00:52:49.720 Michelle Obama
00:52:50.460 is going to
00:52:50.900 be a
00:52:51.160 candidate.
00:52:52.280 So I'm
00:52:52.800 going to
00:52:52.980 go hard
00:52:53.640 no, hard
00:52:55.160 no.
00:52:56.320 Let's see
00:52:56.880 your opinions.
00:52:57.820 Give me
00:52:58.060 your opinions.
00:52:59.260 How many
00:52:59.620 of you are
00:53:00.220 yes or no
00:53:00.900 on Michelle
00:53:02.460 Obama running
00:53:03.900 for president
00:53:04.640 on this
00:53:05.660 election
00:53:06.000 cycle?
00:53:09.580 Yeah, she
00:53:10.260 has no
00:53:10.580 reason to,
00:53:11.280 right?
00:53:13.320 Yep.
00:53:14.740 Yep.
00:53:15.660 All right.
00:53:16.340 So we
00:53:17.140 can disagree
00:53:17.660 on that.
00:53:18.940 But, you
00:53:21.320 know, I
00:53:21.540 guess I
00:53:21.940 really do
00:53:22.720 have the
00:53:23.020 Karl
00:53:23.260 Rove
00:53:23.580 opinion that
00:53:24.440 it seems
00:53:25.520 so
00:53:26.020 preposterous
00:53:27.780 that I
00:53:29.060 can't even
00:53:29.480 talk about
00:53:30.140 it.
00:53:31.180 Like, I
00:53:31.520 feel it's
00:53:31.900 like a
00:53:32.280 waste of
00:53:32.740 energy to
00:53:33.300 even, like,
00:53:33.920 talk about
00:53:34.560 it.
00:53:35.300 Because it's
00:53:35.940 so imaginary.
00:53:37.600 However, now
00:53:39.160 that I've put
00:53:39.640 myself all
00:53:40.440 in the line,
00:53:41.160 and if I'm
00:53:43.020 wrong about
00:53:43.540 this, I'd
00:53:46.900 be amazed.
00:53:47.940 I would say
00:53:48.400 my level of
00:53:49.160 certainty about
00:53:49.900 her not
00:53:50.600 running is
00:53:52.400 the highest
00:53:53.040 for any
00:53:53.640 prediction I've
00:53:54.320 ever made.
00:53:55.840 It's the
00:53:56.540 highest level
00:53:57.280 of certainty
00:53:57.900 for what
00:54:00.320 that's worth.
00:54:01.700 Yeah.
00:54:01.800 This is not
00:54:02.780 a coin flip
00:54:03.380 for me.
00:54:03.860 For me, this
00:54:04.540 is 99.9%
00:54:06.680 likely she's
00:54:07.320 not running.
00:54:09.120 All right.
00:54:10.540 Meanwhile, after
00:54:11.520 the border
00:54:12.080 bill got
00:54:12.600 shot down
00:54:13.100 because it
00:54:13.600 was a
00:54:14.100 complete
00:54:14.440 garbage and
00:54:15.060 our government
00:54:15.520 seems to
00:54:16.040 not be
00:54:16.360 working at
00:54:16.760 all, there's
00:54:18.040 a new
00:54:18.420 Senate bill
00:54:18.960 that got
00:54:20.080 voted 67
00:54:20.920 to 32
00:54:21.520 in favor
00:54:22.120 of advancing
00:54:23.100 it.
00:54:23.420 So it's
00:54:23.620 not passed,
00:54:24.200 they're just
00:54:24.480 advancing it.
00:54:25.440 A $95
00:54:26.120 billion foreign
00:54:27.400 aid package
00:54:27.920 for Ukraine,
00:54:29.320 Israel,
00:54:29.920 Gaza,
00:54:30.200 and Taiwan.
00:54:31.800 Seriously.
00:54:34.940 We're going
00:54:35.580 to give
00:54:35.840 money to
00:54:36.580 four countries
00:54:37.380 that are not
00:54:37.900 the United
00:54:38.320 States in
00:54:39.820 the middle
00:54:40.200 of an
00:54:40.780 invasion.
00:54:43.920 How does
00:54:44.700 that make
00:54:45.080 sense?
00:54:46.640 How does
00:54:47.020 that make
00:54:47.320 sense?
00:54:48.340 And
00:54:48.780 apparently
00:54:49.160 Republicans
00:54:49.800 also voted
00:54:51.200 for it,
00:54:51.700 not in big
00:54:52.340 numbers, but
00:54:53.040 quite a few.
00:54:54.060 I don't
00:54:56.060 trust any
00:54:56.720 Republican who
00:54:58.980 voted for
00:54:59.400 this.
00:55:01.060 I would
00:55:01.860 have to
00:55:02.140 assume something
00:55:02.940 else is going
00:55:03.660 on with
00:55:04.120 them.
00:55:05.400 So I
00:55:06.020 looked at
00:55:06.360 the list.
00:55:07.420 As a
00:55:08.180 citizen, I
00:55:09.960 feel like I
00:55:10.560 needed to
00:55:11.000 know the
00:55:11.360 names on
00:55:12.020 the list
00:55:12.400 that voted
00:55:12.880 for it.
00:55:13.800 I don't do
00:55:14.520 that.
00:55:15.780 I do not
00:55:16.420 do that.
00:55:17.040 Usually you'll
00:55:17.560 hear like,
00:55:18.040 you know,
00:55:18.240 one dissident
00:55:18.880 or something,
00:55:19.940 oh, Romney
00:55:20.720 didn't vote for
00:55:21.360 it.
00:55:21.560 But this
00:55:22.300 time I
00:55:22.840 actually spent
00:55:23.560 time trying
00:55:25.160 to memorize
00:55:25.720 all the
00:55:26.300 names on
00:55:26.780 the list,
00:55:27.260 the
00:55:27.360 Republicans.
00:55:29.540 Because I
00:55:30.140 feel like I
00:55:30.620 need to
00:55:30.960 know that.
00:55:32.280 Whoever
00:55:32.680 voted for
00:55:33.320 this is
00:55:33.660 not on
00:55:33.980 my team.
00:55:35.280 I don't
00:55:35.580 know what
00:55:35.820 team they're
00:55:36.200 on, but
00:55:36.700 you need to
00:55:37.960 know their
00:55:38.260 names.
00:55:39.000 So learn
00:55:39.340 their names
00:55:39.940 for good
00:55:42.400 reason.
00:55:44.540 And Taiwan,
00:55:45.720 what the hell
00:55:46.200 are we doing
00:55:46.580 for Taiwan?
00:55:47.980 Are you
00:55:48.320 telling me
00:55:48.640 Taiwan doesn't
00:55:49.420 have enough
00:55:49.820 money?
00:55:51.560 I thought
00:55:53.340 Taiwan was
00:55:53.980 doing okay.
00:55:55.400 They're running
00:55:55.860 out of money,
00:55:56.400 they need our
00:55:56.840 money.
00:55:57.900 That makes
00:55:58.360 no sense.
00:56:00.360 All right.
00:56:01.140 How many of
00:56:01.800 you listened
00:56:02.140 to the audio,
00:56:03.120 it was
00:56:03.340 fascinating,
00:56:03.980 of the
00:56:04.260 Supreme Court
00:56:04.980 slapping
00:56:06.160 around the
00:56:06.660 state of
00:56:07.040 Colorado who
00:56:07.780 wants to
00:56:08.180 take Trump
00:56:08.640 off the
00:56:09.060 ballot because
00:56:10.260 they say he
00:56:10.980 was involved
00:56:11.800 in an
00:56:12.120 insurrection,
00:56:13.180 which would
00:56:13.660 disqualify him
00:56:14.560 according to
00:56:15.040 the 14th
00:56:15.660 Amendment,
00:56:16.120 they say.
00:56:18.460 But the
00:56:19.240 Supreme Court
00:56:19.940 seemed to
00:56:20.540 have the
00:56:20.820 opinion,
00:56:21.560 that he
00:56:25.340 is not
00:56:26.120 participating
00:56:26.940 in the
00:56:27.600 insurrection
00:56:28.100 which didn't
00:56:29.660 actually happen
00:56:30.440 in reality.
00:56:33.360 You know,
00:56:34.180 might not be
00:56:34.880 enough to
00:56:35.340 get him in
00:56:37.500 trouble here.
00:56:39.900 So I
00:56:41.580 feel like
00:56:42.220 if you
00:56:47.540 listen to
00:56:48.040 the judges
00:56:48.560 asking the
00:56:49.440 questions of
00:56:50.080 the Colorado
00:56:50.620 people,
00:56:52.580 I finally
00:56:54.080 got some
00:56:54.800 of my
00:56:55.200 faith back
00:56:55.980 in the
00:56:56.440 United States.
00:56:58.340 And especially
00:56:58.880 when I was
00:56:59.360 hearing the
00:57:00.420 liberal
00:57:00.960 justices
00:57:01.960 just hammering
00:57:03.980 on these
00:57:04.720 Colorado
00:57:05.400 lawyers.
00:57:07.200 And
00:57:07.760 they were
00:57:09.740 just purely
00:57:10.900 on the
00:57:11.920 Constitution.
00:57:13.560 So here's
00:57:14.160 what I thought
00:57:14.720 I might hear
00:57:15.360 because I
00:57:16.740 haven't listened
00:57:17.400 to a lot
00:57:17.780 of Supreme
00:57:18.240 Court
00:57:18.500 conversations.
00:57:19.140 But we
00:57:19.960 know that
00:57:20.360 the rulings
00:57:21.040 often come
00:57:22.100 down pretty
00:57:22.860 close to
00:57:23.400 party lines.
00:57:24.560 You know,
00:57:24.720 the liberals
00:57:25.140 go one way
00:57:25.880 and the
00:57:26.940 others go
00:57:27.380 another way.
00:57:28.940 So I
00:57:29.560 thought I
00:57:29.920 was going
00:57:30.200 to hear
00:57:30.600 a bunch
00:57:31.640 of bias.
00:57:33.080 I thought
00:57:33.720 that when
00:57:34.020 the liberal
00:57:34.660 justices were
00:57:35.460 talking,
00:57:36.300 they would
00:57:36.540 ask questions
00:57:37.280 that would
00:57:37.620 suggest
00:57:38.160 they wanted
00:57:39.740 to go one
00:57:40.320 way if they
00:57:40.840 could make
00:57:41.420 it happen.
00:57:42.280 Nothing
00:57:42.600 like that
00:57:43.060 happened.
00:57:44.220 So Judge,
00:57:46.180 you're going
00:57:46.680 to have to
00:57:46.920 help me
00:57:47.180 with the
00:57:47.400 name,
00:57:48.000 Catania
00:57:48.520 Jackson,
00:57:50.240 or I'll
00:57:50.480 just say
00:57:50.800 Justice
00:57:51.200 Jackson.
00:57:53.340 I tuned
00:57:54.120 in when
00:57:54.600 she was
00:57:55.220 talking,
00:57:56.460 and I
00:57:57.420 didn't know
00:57:57.700 much about
00:57:58.180 her,
00:57:59.120 but boy
00:57:59.620 do I have
00:58:00.020 more respect
00:58:00.680 for her
00:58:01.060 after listening
00:58:01.660 to her
00:58:02.320 talking to
00:58:03.740 the lawyers.
00:58:04.780 I thought
00:58:05.520 she was
00:58:06.080 really sharp
00:58:06.980 on target,
00:58:08.340 completely
00:58:08.740 compatible
00:58:09.240 with the
00:58:09.600 Constitution,
00:58:11.180 seemed to
00:58:11.640 be right
00:58:11.980 where I
00:58:12.240 wanted her
00:58:12.580 to be.
00:58:13.840 So I'll
00:58:15.220 tell you
00:58:15.560 again,
00:58:15.840 I've said
00:58:16.120 this a
00:58:16.380 number of
00:58:16.600 times,
00:58:16.840 the only
00:58:17.340 thing
00:58:17.640 protecting
00:58:18.120 the United
00:58:18.600 States
00:58:18.960 from
00:58:19.220 collapse
00:58:19.800 is that
00:58:20.880 the Supreme
00:58:21.440 Court still
00:58:22.120 has some
00:58:22.640 credibility.
00:58:24.860 And I
00:58:25.520 thought that
00:58:25.920 it was
00:58:26.280 improved
00:58:26.960 yesterday.
00:58:28.180 I thought
00:58:28.600 the Supreme
00:58:29.140 Court looked
00:58:29.860 a little bit
00:58:30.440 better yesterday.
00:58:32.200 And that
00:58:33.520 made me feel
00:58:34.000 good.
00:58:34.760 Now we
00:58:35.140 don't have
00:58:35.760 the ruling
00:58:36.200 yet,
00:58:36.500 right?
00:58:36.880 When is
00:58:37.400 the ruling
00:58:37.680 coming?
00:58:40.400 Ruling
00:58:40.920 will come
00:58:41.640 soon.
00:58:45.380 So we
00:58:46.260 think it
00:58:46.920 will allow
00:58:47.480 Trump to
00:58:48.640 stay on
00:58:49.040 the ballot.
00:58:51.340 All right.
00:58:54.060 And then
00:58:54.820 Trump says
00:58:55.680 in his
00:58:56.720 statement about
00:58:57.300 it, he
00:58:58.300 says,
00:58:58.700 every one of
00:58:59.280 these cases
00:58:59.820 you see
00:59:00.180 comes out
00:59:00.580 of the
00:59:00.760 White House.
00:59:01.500 It comes
00:59:01.840 out of
00:59:02.160 Biden.
00:59:02.820 It's
00:59:02.960 election
00:59:03.280 interference.
00:59:04.380 It's really
00:59:04.820 sad.
00:59:05.200 You know,
00:59:06.540 normally I
00:59:08.720 would say,
00:59:10.460 you know,
00:59:11.080 don't call
00:59:11.760 everything
00:59:12.140 election
00:59:12.540 interference,
00:59:14.540 you know,
00:59:14.820 because you
00:59:15.120 could spread
00:59:16.000 that to
00:59:16.300 everything.
00:59:17.440 But I
00:59:18.360 think he's
00:59:18.600 right.
00:59:20.340 It does
00:59:21.120 seem to me
00:59:21.620 that there
00:59:22.020 is a
00:59:22.360 White House
00:59:22.860 coordinated
00:59:23.560 lawfare
00:59:25.480 approach,
00:59:26.060 which doesn't
00:59:27.380 seem related
00:59:28.020 to actual
00:59:29.080 laws.
00:59:30.240 It does
00:59:30.780 seem like
00:59:31.240 the intention
00:59:31.840 is purely
00:59:32.640 to keep
00:59:33.180 Trump off
00:59:33.900 the ballot,
00:59:34.860 which I
00:59:35.680 would consider
00:59:36.300 election
00:59:36.720 interference
00:59:37.320 at this
00:59:38.760 level.
00:59:40.100 So if it
00:59:40.560 was a
00:59:40.820 little bit,
00:59:41.400 let's say
00:59:41.920 it was one
00:59:42.380 lawsuit,
00:59:43.680 or let's
00:59:44.060 say it
00:59:44.260 was one
00:59:44.580 court case,
00:59:45.500 and let's
00:59:45.880 say it
00:59:46.100 was pretty
00:59:46.420 solid,
00:59:47.380 I wouldn't
00:59:47.740 call that
00:59:48.100 election
00:59:48.420 interference.
00:59:49.900 But if
00:59:50.200 you have
00:59:50.560 this,
00:59:51.600 you know,
00:59:51.920 full court
00:59:52.480 press,
00:59:53.460 every possible
00:59:54.340 legal thing
00:59:55.320 you can do,
00:59:56.300 and you
00:59:57.240 can be
00:59:57.580 pretty confident
00:59:58.300 that it's
00:59:58.840 coordinated by
00:59:59.520 the White
00:59:59.820 House,
01:00:01.380 to me that
01:00:02.300 looks full
01:00:03.040 Rico.
01:00:04.960 I mean,
01:00:05.660 it's not
01:00:06.020 just election
01:00:06.620 interference,
01:00:07.760 it's organized
01:00:08.740 election
01:00:09.300 interference.
01:00:10.540 So this
01:00:11.240 is the
01:00:11.580 very crime
01:00:12.320 that they're
01:00:12.840 accusing
01:00:13.280 Trump of,
01:00:14.180 insurrection.
01:00:15.500 To me,
01:00:15.940 this looks
01:00:16.260 like an
01:00:16.560 insurrection,
01:00:17.180 looks like
01:00:17.560 election
01:00:18.520 interference.
01:00:21.880 Yeah.
01:00:22.620 And I
01:00:23.780 would suggest
01:00:24.300 that no
01:00:28.400 matter what
01:00:28.840 happens,
01:00:29.280 just claim
01:00:29.760 that you
01:00:30.000 don't remember.
01:00:30.760 That seems
01:00:31.120 to work.
01:00:33.040 Now,
01:00:34.160 the big
01:00:34.380 question about
01:00:35.380 the court
01:00:36.160 case is
01:00:36.740 who decides
01:00:37.360 when an
01:00:37.800 insurrection
01:00:38.200 has occurred?
01:00:39.960 Who gets
01:00:40.620 to decide
01:00:41.360 an insurrection
01:00:42.280 occurred?
01:00:42.960 Because there's
01:00:43.600 no ruling
01:00:44.200 that an
01:00:44.660 insurrection
01:00:45.040 occurred,
01:00:45.960 which is
01:00:46.620 why it's
01:00:47.160 smart that
01:00:48.000 the Republican
01:00:49.840 members are,
01:00:51.300 like Matt
01:00:51.700 Gates is leading
01:00:52.400 some members
01:00:53.060 of the House,
01:00:53.880 to do a
01:00:55.240 resolution saying
01:00:55.960 it wasn't
01:00:56.480 an insurrection.
01:00:57.720 and I
01:00:59.760 think that's
01:01:00.120 good,
01:01:00.480 because if
01:01:01.020 you have
01:01:01.300 no court
01:01:01.960 ruling that
01:01:02.500 says it
01:01:02.840 is one,
01:01:03.820 but you
01:01:04.100 have members
01:01:04.660 of Congress
01:01:05.300 doing a
01:01:05.820 resolution that
01:01:06.460 says it's
01:01:07.060 not one,
01:01:08.640 that's a
01:01:09.420 pretty strong
01:01:10.180 frame.
01:01:11.460 All right.
01:01:12.440 Ladies and
01:01:13.160 gentlemen,
01:01:14.880 I told you I
01:01:15.920 was going to
01:01:16.300 talk about
01:01:16.900 Israel's
01:01:17.720 persuasion.
01:01:20.100 Apparently,
01:01:20.600 they have a
01:01:21.000 new slogan
01:01:21.760 over there,
01:01:22.440 total victory.
01:01:23.140 so total
01:01:25.240 victory,
01:01:25.720 and they're
01:01:26.140 putting it
01:01:26.460 on hats,
01:01:27.820 and apparently
01:01:28.200 the hats are
01:01:29.160 just being
01:01:30.720 really popular,
01:01:32.360 and President
01:01:33.100 Netanyahu,
01:01:34.500 no president,
01:01:36.380 what is
01:01:36.680 Netanyahu,
01:01:37.300 Prime Minister?
01:01:38.240 Netanyahu is
01:01:39.640 using it,
01:01:40.960 and uses a
01:01:43.540 lot, so he's
01:01:44.200 repeating it
01:01:45.360 every time he
01:01:45.900 goes.
01:01:46.540 Now, what
01:01:47.520 do you think
01:01:47.920 of that as
01:01:48.740 a persuasive
01:01:50.460 slogan or
01:01:52.240 branding of
01:01:53.120 their efforts
01:01:53.620 in Gaza?
01:01:54.860 Do you
01:01:55.380 think that's
01:01:55.740 strong or
01:01:56.200 weak?
01:01:57.160 Total
01:01:57.520 victory.
01:01:59.640 Sounds sort
01:02:00.700 of ordinary,
01:02:01.720 right, when
01:02:02.220 you first hear
01:02:02.780 it.
01:02:03.020 It's like,
01:02:03.320 everybody says
01:02:04.400 that, right?
01:02:05.640 Doesn't
01:02:06.000 everybody want
01:02:07.640 to win?
01:02:08.480 Total
01:02:09.000 victory.
01:02:10.020 But it's
01:02:10.780 more than
01:02:11.160 that.
01:02:12.080 It's more
01:02:12.520 than that.
01:02:14.520 And here's
01:02:15.280 why.
01:02:16.360 The biggest
01:02:17.060 challenge that
01:02:17.840 Netanyahu
01:02:18.360 has is
01:02:19.360 everybody who's
01:02:20.220 not Israel
01:02:21.000 saying,
01:02:22.420 hey,
01:02:23.120 hey,
01:02:23.680 why don't
01:02:23.880 you negotiate
01:02:24.420 a little
01:02:24.780 bit?
01:02:26.180 Why don't
01:02:26.740 you do a
01:02:27.240 little ceasefire,
01:02:28.920 maybe trade
01:02:29.580 some prisoners,
01:02:31.180 stuff like
01:02:31.620 that?
01:02:32.340 And there's
01:02:32.980 a lot to
01:02:33.500 say no to.
01:02:35.440 If you're
01:02:36.080 Netanyahu and
01:02:37.400 you want to
01:02:37.920 really, really
01:02:38.660 completely defeat
01:02:40.260 Hamas, which
01:02:41.140 is what he
01:02:41.540 wants to do,
01:02:42.460 you don't
01:02:43.320 want to be
01:02:43.860 arguing every
01:02:45.180 little point.
01:02:48.120 You want to
01:02:48.800 just say,
01:02:49.520 no, total
01:02:50.060 victory.
01:02:50.800 Because you
01:02:51.200 know what?
01:02:51.420 We all
01:02:51.720 know what
01:02:51.960 that looks
01:02:52.280 like.
01:02:53.440 Let me
01:02:53.720 give you
01:02:53.940 a test.
01:02:56.360 Do you
01:02:57.040 think that
01:02:58.100 it will
01:02:58.420 end with
01:02:59.380 Hamas back
01:03:00.280 in power
01:03:00.880 in some
01:03:01.400 limited way?
01:03:02.820 No.
01:03:03.620 That would
01:03:04.240 not be
01:03:04.580 total victory.
01:03:05.680 Do you
01:03:05.980 think it'll
01:03:06.320 end with
01:03:06.980 some armed
01:03:07.960 Hamas people
01:03:09.100 still in the
01:03:09.840 tunnels who
01:03:10.460 could then
01:03:10.780 emerge and
01:03:11.440 maybe reform
01:03:12.740 their movement?
01:03:14.160 No.
01:03:15.080 As long as
01:03:15.880 there's even
01:03:16.320 one of them
01:03:16.840 left in a
01:03:17.360 tunnel, they
01:03:18.420 don't have
01:03:18.800 total victory.
01:03:21.080 So the
01:03:21.760 beauty of
01:03:22.300 the frame is
01:03:23.380 that it's so
01:03:23.900 clarifying.
01:03:25.340 What does it
01:03:25.920 look like?
01:03:26.640 Does it look
01:03:27.140 like Hamas
01:03:30.220 wins anything?
01:03:32.400 Do they get
01:03:33.140 anything after
01:03:33.920 this?
01:03:34.820 No.
01:03:35.680 No, the
01:03:36.040 answer is
01:03:36.420 nothing.
01:03:37.380 Total
01:03:37.800 victory.
01:03:39.300 Total
01:03:39.660 victory.
01:03:40.800 What about
01:03:41.420 would Hamas
01:03:43.060 control the
01:03:44.000 education system?
01:03:45.220 Or let's
01:03:46.360 say people
01:03:46.860 who changed
01:03:47.380 their name
01:03:47.960 from Hamas
01:03:48.780 and said,
01:03:49.680 oh, I'm
01:03:49.900 not Hamas
01:03:50.440 anymore.
01:03:51.460 Now I'm
01:03:51.780 just something
01:03:52.740 else.
01:03:53.580 But I'll be
01:03:54.320 in charge of
01:03:54.920 your school
01:03:55.480 system and
01:03:56.320 we'll train
01:03:57.020 the kids to
01:03:57.680 have the
01:03:58.120 same attitude
01:03:58.640 we had.
01:03:59.720 Nope.
01:04:01.120 That would
01:04:01.740 not be
01:04:02.080 total victory.
01:04:03.160 That would
01:04:03.480 look like
01:04:03.820 losing to
01:04:04.400 me.
01:04:05.320 So I
01:04:06.440 think total
01:04:06.940 victory has
01:04:07.580 not only
01:04:08.040 some callbacks
01:04:09.000 to Winston
01:04:10.680 Churchill, so
01:04:11.560 it might
01:04:11.800 remind you of
01:04:12.380 that.
01:04:13.160 That would
01:04:13.420 be a good
01:04:13.900 comparison.
01:04:16.980 But I
01:04:17.440 think it
01:04:17.940 clarifies that
01:04:19.880 they're not
01:04:20.300 going to talk
01:04:20.800 about the
01:04:21.220 details.
01:04:23.140 Israel is
01:04:23.720 going to
01:04:24.020 have total
01:04:24.580 victory as
01:04:25.480 they define
01:04:26.180 it.
01:04:27.040 And if you
01:04:27.560 have any
01:04:28.020 questions
01:04:28.480 whatsoever,
01:04:29.640 if it's a
01:04:30.740 gray area,
01:04:31.860 no, they
01:04:32.200 want that
01:04:32.560 too.
01:04:34.020 There's no
01:04:34.640 gray area.
01:04:35.760 If it's not
01:04:36.280 total victory,
01:04:37.000 you know
01:04:37.240 exactly what
01:04:37.880 that looks
01:04:38.240 like.
01:04:38.760 And you
01:04:38.980 know what
01:04:39.240 total victory
01:04:39.860 looks like.
01:04:40.860 So you
01:04:41.440 could argue
01:04:41.940 should they
01:04:42.780 go for it
01:04:43.480 or not,
01:04:43.840 but in
01:04:44.060 terms of
01:04:44.420 persuasion,
01:04:45.740 I think the
01:04:47.080 framing is
01:04:47.580 perfect.
01:04:49.000 So that's
01:04:49.600 exactly what I
01:04:50.500 would have
01:04:50.760 done in that
01:04:51.240 situation.
01:04:52.200 Now, suppose
01:04:52.920 you say,
01:04:53.520 but Scott,
01:04:54.000 is it really
01:04:54.400 a negotiating
01:04:55.200 position?
01:04:57.840 It could
01:04:58.400 end up that
01:04:58.960 way, but it
01:05:00.400 would be the
01:05:00.820 best negotiating
01:05:01.600 position you
01:05:02.220 could ever
01:05:02.560 have.
01:05:03.640 No, total
01:05:04.200 victory.
01:05:04.780 That's my
01:05:05.200 position.
01:05:05.780 Nope, nope,
01:05:06.580 nope, total
01:05:07.100 victory.
01:05:08.340 So I think
01:05:08.940 it's pretty
01:05:09.240 strong, and I
01:05:10.160 think you're
01:05:10.480 going to see
01:05:10.700 more of it.
01:05:11.180 And that,
01:05:13.220 ladies and
01:05:13.520 gentlemen,
01:05:14.500 concludes my
01:05:15.220 show for the
01:05:15.840 day.
01:05:17.540 I think you're
01:05:18.440 all smarter
01:05:18.980 and happier.
01:05:20.760 And I
01:05:21.200 literally
01:05:22.440 recommend
01:05:23.400 watching MSNBC
01:05:24.960 today for
01:05:26.400 the humor.
01:05:27.760 It is
01:05:28.120 absolutely
01:05:28.860 hilarious
01:05:29.500 watching them
01:05:30.340 spin around
01:05:31.540 with all the
01:05:32.400 latest news
01:05:32.940 about Biden.
01:05:33.520 I actually
01:05:35.540 want Biden
01:05:36.100 to last
01:05:36.740 now.
01:05:37.740 I think I
01:05:38.160 said that
01:05:38.560 earlier.
01:05:40.560 It makes
01:05:41.320 sense to
01:05:41.760 replace him.
01:05:42.440 If I were a
01:05:42.980 Democrat, I'd
01:05:43.620 replace him as
01:05:44.260 soon as
01:05:44.540 possible, if
01:05:45.180 they can.
01:05:47.440 But I
01:05:49.360 really hope
01:05:49.820 they don't.
01:05:51.040 I would like
01:05:51.840 him to
01:05:52.180 actually be the
01:05:53.040 person that
01:05:53.660 Trump faces,
01:05:55.600 and then if
01:05:56.500 they try to
01:05:56.980 rig the
01:05:57.340 election,
01:05:58.820 hypothetically,
01:06:00.420 it's going to
01:06:00.840 be really
01:06:01.240 obvious.
01:06:01.720 It's going
01:06:03.520 to be really
01:06:03.920 obvious.
01:06:05.500 All right.
01:06:06.780 That's all I
01:06:07.520 got for today.
01:06:08.700 Thanks for
01:06:09.220 joining on the
01:06:10.020 X platform and
01:06:11.160 Rumble and
01:06:12.160 YouTube.
01:06:13.960 Go forth and
01:06:14.920 have a great
01:06:15.540 day today and
01:06:16.620 a great weekend,
01:06:17.740 and I will see
01:06:18.700 the locals people
01:06:19.560 on the man
01:06:20.880 cave tonight.
01:06:22.500 The rest of you
01:06:23.020 I'll see tomorrow
01:06:23.880 morning.
01:06:24.300 Thanks for
01:06:24.640 joining.
