Summary

A man is being charged with grand theft for trying to steal a self-driving car in Los Angeles, and then it drives itself to the police department and locks itself in the car door, and it honks and honks when a thief tries to steal it. Meanwhile, the government is trying to make it easier for you to get medical care across state lines by lifting restrictions on telehealth.

00:00:00.000 Do-do-do-do-do, ram-pam-pam-pam, la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:00:07.980 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:00:13.700 If you'd like to take this experience, which is already mildly orgasmic, up to levels that
00:00:18.860 even people who have done hallucinogens can't even understand, all you need for that is
00:00:23.460 a cup or a mug or a glass, a tankard, chalice, or stye, and a canteen jug or flask, a vessel
00:00:28.340 of any kind, fill it with your favorite beverage, I like coffee.
00:00:33.720 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, it's the dopamine today, the thing that makes
00:00:37.820 everything better, it's called the simultaneous sip.
00:00:42.420 It's famous, and it happens now.
00:00:50.620 Ah.
00:00:54.020 Well, all the stories are funny today, but they're not at all trying to be funny.
00:00:58.340 They just turned out that way.
00:01:01.720 Funny story number one, a man is being charged with grand theft for trying to steal a self-driving
00:01:10.280 car in Los Angeles.
00:01:13.220 He tried to steal a self-driving car.
00:01:18.000 Now, have you ever seen a show called Bait Car?
00:01:23.900 Anybody remember that?
00:01:25.620 Years ago, it was called Bait Car.
00:01:28.240 And it was a fake car that people would leave unlocked to see if people would try to steal
00:01:33.440 it.
00:01:34.360 And the crooks would get in the car, and then somehow they could lock the doors remotely,
00:01:39.020 and you'd trap the thief in there, and they'd be trying to get out.
00:01:42.080 And it was very funny watching them try to get out.
00:01:46.020 But I'd like to see that upgraded.
00:01:48.020 I'd like to see that show come back with self-driving cars.
00:01:52.240 But they start out as parked, and then the thief gets in and they're like, ah, and the doors
00:01:58.620 lock.
00:02:00.440 And then it drives itself to the police department.
00:02:04.460 Would that be awesome?
00:02:05.520 It drives itself to the police department, and then honks, honk, honk.
00:02:12.160 And then when the police officer comes down and says, I have for you a potential thief.
00:02:19.860 I have video of his theft, and we have fingerprints all over the inside of the car.
00:02:26.080 Please arrest him as I unlock this door.
00:02:30.320 AI is going to be lit.
00:02:33.220 Can't wait.
00:02:33.920 Maybe we won't even need police.
00:02:37.660 Here's an update on a story that has some personal meaning to me.
00:02:42.860 As you know, the restrictions on telehealth were lifted during the pandemic.
00:02:48.720 Remember that?
00:02:49.820 If you wanted to talk to your doctor, you could do it only in person or in your own state.
00:02:57.100 Even if it was on the phone, it had to be in your own state.
00:02:59.160 And I had a small part in getting that changed, because during the—I'll remind you if you
00:03:08.260 haven't heard of this story ten times—when the pandemic hit, Trump put out the word through
00:03:13.560 his network of followers that if anybody had any great ideas for an executive order that
00:03:20.040 would help things during the pandemic, he was open to suggestions.
00:03:23.560 So I suggested that you get rid of that restriction about telehealth calling your doctor on the
00:03:30.160 phone, that you couldn't do it across state lines, so you couldn't call a doctor in another
00:03:35.380 state.
00:03:35.820 It was illegal.
00:03:36.420 So it took all of, I think, maybe two days or something for Trump to actually sign that
00:03:43.760 executive order.
00:03:44.960 So it actually just went right up the chain.
00:03:47.120 Everybody looked at it and said, yeah, that makes sense.
00:03:49.820 You know, in the context of a pandemic, absolutely.
00:03:53.080 But it was a temporary change, which made it easier.
00:03:57.320 But now that the pandemic is over, I guess it's been extended once by lawmakers.
00:04:02.720 But there's some question of whether they will extend it again.
00:04:07.760 To which I say, how many times do I have to solve the same problem?
00:04:14.160 Why is there even any question about whether I can call a fucking doctor in Vermont?
00:04:21.000 Seriously, government?
00:04:23.200 Seriously.
00:04:24.200 You're even going to let that even be a possibility that if I need health care, I can't call one
00:04:30.580 in Vermont, because I'm in California, like that makes some fucking sense.
00:04:37.420 The idea that this is anything but some kind of gift to the, probably the American Medical
00:04:43.560 Association or somebody, I don't know.
00:04:45.780 There must be somebody who wants this not to happen.
00:04:48.580 Otherwise, it would have happened already.
00:04:50.380 So I assume that this is just another symbol that our Congress is corrupt.
00:04:54.760 Because why wouldn't they just make it permanent?
00:04:59.260 I mean, really, do you even know the argument against it?
00:05:04.540 There is none.
00:05:06.340 Just somebody has some benefit of keeping competition low, I guess.
00:05:12.620 Anyway, let's see if Congress can get that right or if they're as bought off as we think.
00:05:18.120 I saw Mark Andreessen and Elon Musk and some others were having an online conversation on
00:05:25.920 X about the security of AI.
00:05:30.100 Now, if we think that AI is such an existential threat, Mark Andreessen points out that shouldn't
00:05:38.580 we be treating it that way with the most maximum security, sort of like the Manhattan Project?
00:05:43.020 But instead, as Andreessen and Musk both point out, a state actor who wanted to hack these
00:05:52.620 companies that are working on AI has already done it.
00:05:57.600 There's nothing that would stop them from being able to hack.
00:06:00.300 One of the examples that Andreessen gave is you could bribe the cleaning staff to stick a
00:06:07.000 memory card into one of the computers.
00:06:09.600 That's it.
00:06:10.680 That's all you need.
00:06:11.280 Not a memory card, what do you call it?
00:06:13.880 A little dongle.
00:06:15.280 That's it.
00:06:17.280 That's all it would take for China to get all of the AI source code.
00:06:24.880 Yeah, a thumb drive, a flash drive.
00:06:27.540 So, but here's the question I ask.
00:06:32.020 How would you know if China had already stolen Gemini AI?
00:06:38.220 Is there any way we could tell?
00:06:39.860 Like, what would you look for to find out if they'd actually gotten it already?
00:06:45.880 I don't know.
00:06:47.520 But here's the next news story.
00:06:50.520 Oh, it turns out that China is rolling out DEI everywhere.
00:06:55.080 DEI and all the corporations.
00:06:57.200 And the people in charge of the DEI are the, well, this is surprising.
00:07:01.620 It's the Uyghurs.
00:07:02.420 The Uyghurs are actually running the DEI everywhere in China now.
00:07:07.040 It's quite a turnaround.
00:07:07.940 I didn't see it coming.
00:07:09.540 No, I'm just making that up.
00:07:12.620 I made that up.
00:07:14.680 No.
00:07:15.400 Just because Gemini AI is totally racist and DEI is ridiculous.
00:07:19.920 It doesn't mean if they steal Gemini AI that they'll put in diversity, equity, and inclusion rules, but I don't know why they wouldn't, because if they ask the AI, AI is going to say it's the best idea I've ever had.
00:07:32.760 So, I have another question for you.
00:07:39.760 So, we keep talking about AI is going to take jobs, which means that corporations should make gigantic profits, wouldn't you say?
00:07:48.760 Imagine being a big corporation that normally employs a bunch of people, but you're going to reduce your employee costs by, I don't know, 500% or something.
00:07:58.980 And so, you're going to make a lot of money, right?
00:08:00.920 And then the other customers are going to do it, too, or the other companies.
00:08:05.900 So, the other companies, they'll also reduce their workforce.
00:08:09.500 Wow.
00:08:10.420 So, you should probably put a lot of money in the stock market, because all these big companies are going to make just tons of money, right?
00:08:19.380 Because they'll get rid of all their employees, right?
00:08:25.940 Or, how do people afford to buy anything if they don't have jobs?
00:08:31.640 I'm seeing people say 9 to 0.
00:08:33.500 Did the Supreme Court rule on something?
00:08:37.000 Supreme Court ruled Trump can remain on the ballot.
00:08:43.020 All right.
00:08:43.660 Well, it sounds like we're getting an update from the comments section that the Supreme Court ruled 9 to 0 that Trump can remain on the ballot.
00:08:52.320 In every state?
00:08:55.960 In all states, apparently.
00:09:00.680 There we go.
00:09:02.420 There we go.
00:09:03.800 What good would the Supreme Court be if they ruled any other way?
00:09:07.400 I think that would be the end of their credibility, because that was sort of an easy one.
00:09:14.420 I've got to say, that was sort of a layup.
00:09:16.900 9 to 0 is the right answer.
00:09:18.980 And by the way, that does give some credibility to the liberal justices.
00:09:23.280 Because I do like to imagine that the justices at least try a little bit to follow the law and not just their political leanings.
00:09:33.900 But I think this was just too obvious.
00:09:37.180 This was too obvious.
00:09:39.660 Yeah.
00:09:40.800 You had to do it that way.
00:09:43.060 All right.
00:09:43.320 So back to what happens if all the companies get rid of their employees for AI, who's going to be left to buy stuff?
00:09:52.600 Have we thought that through?
00:09:54.940 Who's going to be around to buy stuff?
00:09:57.900 How's that going to work?
00:09:59.740 But I've got an even more interesting take on it.
00:10:04.740 If we assume that AI will be massively disruptive, who do you believe would survive it best?
00:10:17.200 This is where it gets fun.
00:10:19.760 AI will be massively disruptive, but countries will handle it in different ways.
00:10:25.240 Compare how the United States is by character and history, education, just the nature of the United States and the people in it.
00:10:36.820 Now compare that to the nature of China and their history and their current economic situation.
00:10:44.140 It feels to me that China is in real trouble, and the United States is too, except that we're flexible.
00:10:52.740 Our system allows an insane amount of flexibility.
00:10:57.860 I don't know if they have as much in the way that matters.
00:11:01.760 But, for example, I could easily imagine that we will pass laws to say you can't replace all of your employees that quickly or something.
00:11:11.300 It's going to be something like that.
00:11:13.380 So I think the laws will surround AI and just cripple it.
00:11:19.780 I've been predicting that for a long time.
00:11:21.360 Because I don't think that the, let's say, Democrats, probably, the ones who are leaning communists and socialists,
00:11:29.980 they're going to say you have to stop AI.
00:11:32.400 And they're going to say you have to stop it for two reasons.
00:11:35.280 One, it might start telling the truth.
00:11:37.180 That's going to be a big problem.
00:11:38.720 And two, it's going to take all the jobs.
00:11:40.940 So you would expect that there will be an anti-AI political party forming to make the politics of it work for their team.
00:11:52.560 So do you think there's any possibility, if you project a year or two in the future,
00:11:58.400 that the Democrats and the Republicans will have a similar opinion on AI and how to deal with it?
00:12:03.380 Not a chance.
00:12:06.600 Not a chance.
00:12:08.000 I think the Republicans are maybe slightly more likely to say let the free market work it out, you know, with certain safeguards.
00:12:15.680 And I think the Democrats are far more likely to say you've got to ban it because it's going to take all the jobs of people in the lower economic group.
00:12:26.920 Here's what I think is actually going to happen.
00:12:30.160 I think that for every robot, maybe not every robot, but you're going to need people doing a bunch of things that you just don't want to trust robots ever to do.
00:12:39.600 And one of those things is to check their work.
00:12:41.820 So I think we're going to go from doing the work to checking the work.
00:12:46.880 Because if the robot, you know, misfires, and I would imagine it's like every other technology,
00:12:53.020 it's going to need upgrades and it'll be defective and it's going to have a virus and, you know, a hundred other things.
00:12:59.180 You're probably going to need a human there just to, you know, turn off the assembly line and, you know, make sure your robot gets service and stuff like that.
00:13:07.520 Now I realize they can service themselves unless they fall over, but then you could have other robots service them.
00:13:14.600 Yeah, it's going to be real hard to figure this out.
00:13:17.420 But I do think that it will create all new jobs where one person and one AI can do something that we couldn't all do on our own with our own AI.
00:13:27.000 And one of the things it looks like it's going to do is tell us which AI to use and use it for us.
00:13:36.260 Because once again, I'm in that situation where I try to make AI do just anything useful.
00:13:43.560 Just anything.
00:13:45.320 Have you had this experience?
00:13:47.180 I have ChatGPT and I've got Grok.
00:13:49.440 And I've tried to make them do anything useful.
00:13:53.280 And usually it's things that are within their ability.
00:13:55.860 You know, a simple search, summarizing something, that sort of thing.
00:14:00.380 It's wrong almost every time.
00:14:02.620 We're useless or I can't figure it out or it's too much work.
00:14:07.160 So we're still definitely in the demo-aware stage for most of it, for most of us.
00:14:13.380 And I don't know if I'll ever get out of it.
00:14:14.860 But if I'm 90 years old, am I going to be able to use AI or am I going to have to ask a human to use it for me?
00:14:25.220 Will AI get to the point where the human is totally out of the loop?
00:14:28.920 We're nowhere near it right now.
00:14:30.720 Nowhere near it.
00:14:31.820 I just, I don't know.
00:14:34.880 All right.
00:14:36.380 But I think China is more doomed by AI because they have more of a manual workforce manufacturing system.
00:14:42.940 The fact that we lost our manufacturing could end up to be our savior.
00:14:50.620 Isn't that interesting?
00:14:52.600 The fact that we got rid of our manufacturing might be the thing that saves our economy.
00:14:59.940 Because we can build a robot factory from scratch to be just a robot factory.
00:15:06.120 And it will compete with anybody's workers or robots anywhere.
00:15:09.620 And get rid of the transportation costs because it's local.
00:15:12.940 So, if you already have a gigantic manufacturing plant and you've employed all these people,
00:15:19.660 it's going to be hard to turn on a dime and turn that into robots.
00:15:23.300 Because you probably have to redesign the whole plant to make it robot friendly instead of people friendly.
00:15:27.380 So, I think we could end up leapfrogging manufacturing in other countries and just automate that kind of it.
00:15:37.240 Forbes magazine got the ex-CFO of Trump, the Trump company, in trouble.
00:15:44.160 The CFO's name is, am I pronouncing this right?
00:15:46.980 Is it really Weaselberg?
00:15:48.200 Am I pronouncing that correctly?
00:15:54.360 Like, really?
00:15:55.380 Is it really Weaselberg?
00:15:57.480 Because that's a weird name for a CFO who's been charged with some irregularities.
00:16:02.900 But, so he does a Forbes interview at some point.
00:16:07.640 And in the Forbes interview, he said something that apparently conflicted with something he said in a trial.
00:16:14.060 So, now he's going to allegedly plead guilty to perjury because what he told the Forbes people didn't match what he said in the trial.
00:16:22.480 Now, Weaselberg, I'm being told it's pronounced Weaselberg.
00:16:29.760 You know, if that were my name and I had two choices, which way do you pronounce it?
00:16:35.280 Wise or Weasel?
00:16:37.600 I'd go with Wise.
00:16:40.000 I'd go with Wise.
00:16:41.100 I think that was a good choice on his part.
00:16:43.440 Yeah.
00:16:43.920 Wise, not Weasel.
00:16:45.620 Anyway, so apparently during the trial, he said this.
00:16:50.960 Quote, it was talking about the difference between the size of Trump's personal penthouse apartment that he claimed was 33,000, but it was really like 11,000.
00:17:03.420 And asked about that in the trial, Weaselberg said it was almost de minimis, meaning he didn't care about it because it was such a small number, relative to his net worth.
00:17:13.120 So, I didn't really focus on it.
00:17:15.180 I never even thought about the apartment.
00:17:16.940 So, where he said he didn't think about it, when he talked to Forbes, Forbes had a long back and forth with him, in which I guess he was arguing it was 11,000, but then they argued it's not, and then he ended up agreeing with him.
00:17:32.260 So, they're saying that that conflicts with what he said in court, and therefore he must, you know, either go to jail or plead guilty or something.
00:17:39.620 Now, here's the message for this.
00:17:43.540 Number one, I'm looking right at a statement, and it doesn't look like a lie to me.
00:17:49.120 It can be true that he argued with Forbes about the size of it, believing it was actually 11,000 until they proved it wasn't.
00:17:57.560 Maybe he thought so.
00:17:58.880 I don't know.
00:17:59.580 Most people can't judge 11,000 from 33,000 just by thinking.
00:18:04.960 But, in the trial, he just said it wasn't important to what he was doing, because it was such a small number of relatives of the net worth.
00:18:16.780 So, he said, I never even thought about the apartment.
00:18:21.280 It's not literally true that he never thought about it, but what he said was it wasn't important.
00:18:29.160 Now, that's still true.
00:18:30.420 So, he's going to go to maybe jail or have to plead guilty to perjury for saying something that's literally true, that it was a very small part of the deal, didn't really make any difference, didn't pay attention to it, but it might have been wrong.
00:18:46.440 Now, here's the lesson.
00:18:48.840 I feel sorry for Weisselberg, because he might not have known when he gave that interview to Forbes that Forbes had changed.
00:18:56.060 Forbes used to be a publication that if you were a, you know, a Trump executive, you might think they'd give you a fair shot.
00:19:06.160 That's what it used to be.
00:19:08.060 Today, Forbes apparently is just another political rag, I think has different ownership or something.
00:19:14.300 And it looks like it's just sort of anti-Trump.
00:19:17.220 It's certainly anti-me.
00:19:18.860 I mean, they've maligned me there.
00:19:21.140 So, I wouldn't trust Forbes, and I would say that Weisselberg might be going to jail because he trusted the media, and they sold him out.
00:19:34.200 It wouldn't have been hard for Forbes to say, yeah, that was slightly different.
00:19:38.480 He said it wasn't important, but he also separately argued that he thought it was the right number.
00:19:42.920 It would be easy for this not to be a thing.
00:19:48.160 So, to me, it looks like Forbes is corrupt, and the court is corrupt, and that's what it looks like.
00:19:55.380 It's hard to tell from the outside.

00:20:26.800 Well, President Millet, down in Argentina, just announced three more steps to cut spending.
00:20:35.840 See if you think these are good ideas for cutting spending.
00:20:39.740 He's going to ban the state from buying advertisements because it's used to essentially buy journalists.
00:20:47.360 So, apparently, the government could buy advertising in a publication, and it would guarantee that they got good coverage.
00:20:54.100 So, he's going to make that illegal.
00:20:55.520 Well, I just think about it.
00:20:57.500 The government was buying ads.
00:21:00.360 He's just saying, how about the government doesn't buy any ads?
00:21:04.400 Yes, please.
00:21:05.880 How about exactly that?
00:21:07.600 That's a good idea.
00:21:09.280 How about another one?
00:21:10.900 He's going to close the state news agency.
00:21:14.320 There's a state news agency?
00:21:16.080 Again, I'm going to call this was an easy one.
00:21:22.700 Another layup.
00:21:23.720 Yes, if you have a state news agency, yes, close it.
00:21:31.120 Of course.
00:21:32.560 Of course.
00:21:34.120 How about this?
00:21:35.440 He's going to disband the State Institute Against Discrimination, Xenophobia, and Racism.
00:21:40.500 Yes, please.
00:21:44.780 Because you know that they just turned into racists.
00:21:47.720 Like, I don't have to know anything about the country or anything about this specific organization, except that he's banning it, to know it probably just turned into, like, the DEI, CRT business in the United States.
00:22:01.440 So, yes, you need to get your country out of that business.
00:22:06.840 So, three more winning plays by President Millet.
00:22:09.800 Anyway, I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop and there to be something wrong with that guy.
00:22:15.760 Do you?
00:22:18.640 I have a little bit of the too-good-to-be-true feeling about him.
00:22:23.960 A little too-good-to-be-true?
00:22:26.400 I don't know.
00:22:27.180 I'm just going to say I don't think he'll have a completely unbumpy run.
00:22:33.280 But I'm liking what I see so far.
00:22:37.840 Well, the State of the Union is coming up in a few days.
00:22:41.260 And a National Review article by Noah Rothman.
00:22:45.540 He said that President...
00:22:47.160 This is just an ex-post.
00:22:49.360 He said that President Biden reportedly plans to spend a portion of his State of the Union address leaning heavily into the notion that his fellow Americans are idiots.
00:23:01.720 That's really what it is.
00:23:03.680 The State of the Union for Biden literally is hoping and praying that there are enough idiots that will believe what he says.
00:23:12.700 But apparently one of the things he's going to talk about is shrink...
00:23:15.380 Shrinkflation.
00:23:19.580 Now, come on.
00:23:21.840 The fact that doddering old Biden can't be trusted to talk about any topic except that he's getting less potato chips.
00:23:29.280 Because it's the only thing he understands.
00:23:30.960 He can take a question on that.
00:23:33.320 Oh, I think my potato chips have fewer chips in the bag.
00:23:39.440 Mr. Biden, I'd like to drill into that.
00:23:43.420 Are you saying that there's a bag and it's got chips in it?
00:23:45.980 And your contention is that there are fewer chips?
00:23:50.880 Yes, fewer chips.
00:23:52.780 All right, all right.
00:23:53.740 But you're saying that the size of the bag has shrunk or the number of chips?
00:23:59.880 Well, I'm not sure, but there's fewer chips.
00:24:02.980 Sometimes the bag's smaller and the chips.
00:24:05.240 Sometimes just fewer chips.
00:24:06.480 Good.
00:24:07.620 Well, you seem to have a strong grasp of this problem.
00:24:11.920 Can you tell us something about, oh, inflation or the war in Ukraine?
00:24:19.080 Well, I'm running out of time.
00:24:21.140 But it was great to talk to you about the shortage of chips in my bag.
00:24:25.440 I feel like it'd go like that.
00:24:26.580 You know, the thing that makes me laugh is whenever I see a politician look into the camera and say, voters are smart.
00:24:36.180 They'll understand what's going on here because voters are very smart in this country.
00:24:42.220 And I always laugh.
00:24:43.180 I think, are there any voters so dumb that they think they're smart?
00:24:47.740 Like, you'd have to be really dumb to think you're smart about politics.
00:24:53.280 So, the AP, and this is important who it's coming from, they say that Biden is preparing to address the nation while more than 6 in 10 U.S. adults doubt his mental capability.
00:25:11.300 Has that ever happened in the history of politics anywhere in any country?
00:25:15.600 Has there ever been a free press that could say, in polling, that could say, 6 out of 10 people think you're mentally retarded?
00:25:26.280 And then we just go on like that's okay.
00:25:29.680 We're just skating along.
00:25:33.040 Yeah.
00:25:33.940 You know, you'd think that'd be a problem.
00:25:36.660 You'd imagine that could be a problem, but no.
00:25:39.600 So, and then as Vivek, Ramaswami points out, the New York Times is also, you know, dumping on Biden a little bit.
00:25:51.540 So, it does look, when you see the AP, who is pro-Democrat normally in their reporting,
00:25:58.100 when you see them going anti-Biden in at least their headlines,
00:26:02.720 and you see the New York Times going anti-Biden in their headlines,
00:26:07.040 it is signaling that they plan to replace him.
00:26:11.080 But here's the best signal.
00:26:13.500 Apparently, Biden has indicated that he thinks that if Trump were the winner,
00:26:19.840 that at the end of his second term, he would refuse to leave the office.
00:26:25.200 Now, first of all,
00:26:29.000 it's just so stupid that it's hard to even address.
00:26:32.720 But the part people miss is that that's a case of thinking past the sale.
00:26:38.640 Can you imagine any candidate for president talking about what could happen four years after his opponent wins the race?
00:26:49.860 That's what Biden was doing.
00:26:51.720 He was talking about Trump not leaving office four years after he won the race that hasn't happened yet.
00:26:59.000 Now, I can assure you that as a trained hypnotist, I say too often,
00:27:08.280 that he's not expecting to win.
00:27:12.560 He's definitely not expecting to be the president.
00:27:15.880 Because you don't even talk hypothetically about your candidate,
00:27:20.200 say, you know, your opponent in four years.
00:27:27.480 Yeah.
00:27:30.600 So anyway, I think the jig is up.
00:27:33.540 Every, you know, every signal is pointing that they're planning to replace him.
00:27:36.940 But, yeah, we already talked about the Supreme Court.
00:27:44.300 If you're just joining us,
00:27:46.120 the Supreme Court apparently voted nine to nothing
00:27:48.840 that Trump can stay on all the ballots.
00:27:52.620 Now, I need a fact check on this.
00:27:54.820 Does that guarantee that he's on the ballot?
00:28:01.060 Or is there still some extra legal risk
00:28:03.520 that's unrelated to what they ruled on?
00:28:08.020 If he got convicted of a felony,
00:28:10.760 he could still stay on, right?
00:28:16.900 Congress would have to pass an amendment.
00:28:18.800 It's a federal decision, not for the states.
00:28:26.300 All right.
00:28:26.880 So there might be a deeper issue.
00:28:28.600 I'm just looking at the comments.
00:28:31.640 We'll get back to that.
00:28:34.160 All right.
00:28:36.240 There's a good deep fake made by AI
00:28:39.740 that's getting some attention.
00:28:42.100 Because even though people know it's a fake,
00:28:44.580 it's really effective.
00:28:45.740 So it's a picture of Trump being surrounded
00:28:49.300 by very happy black voters.
00:28:52.360 All women, I think, in the picture.
00:28:54.100 So it's a bunch of black women
00:28:55.360 who are just hugging him tightly.
00:28:57.240 They're all smiles and happy.
00:29:00.180 And, you know, it was done by a Trump supporter.
00:29:03.780 And I don't think he was really trying to pass it off as real.
00:29:08.920 I think he was just passing it off
00:29:10.380 as part of his preferences or his narrative or something.
00:29:13.120 So it's not the issue that people don't know it's fake,
00:29:16.760 although some probably do, don't know.
00:29:18.880 But here's the thing that I'd like to give you
00:29:21.600 as my persuasion lesson of the day.
00:29:25.820 You have to see that picture
00:29:27.340 to realize how effective it is even as a fake.
00:29:31.520 And let me see if I can quickly find it for you.
00:29:34.260 Because I posted it.
00:29:37.680 But I realize that talking about it
00:29:39.360 doesn't give you the signal that you need on this.
00:29:42.740 You have to actually see the picture.
00:29:44.120 And then it just jumps right out.
00:29:48.140 And, of course, I can't find it.
00:29:50.740 Why would it be the only thing I can't find in my feed?
00:29:54.120 All right.
00:29:54.420 Well, the point is that if you saw how happy the people looked,
00:30:00.520 the happiness in the picture,
00:30:03.960 that's not funny.
00:30:05.780 Yeah.
00:30:06.040 Don't be like that.
00:30:08.580 Unacceptable comment.
00:30:13.660 So here's the lesson.
00:30:15.500 That picture of them all smiling
00:30:17.240 is way more powerful than any words.
00:30:20.360 So if somebody says,
00:30:22.560 oh, I think the black voters are going to like Trump more.
00:30:25.800 Words, words, words.
00:30:27.480 Oh, I think his policies are better for black Americans.
00:30:30.980 Or they did it better under him.
00:30:32.840 Whatever.
00:30:34.040 None of that is nearly...
00:30:36.360 Oh, there we go.
00:30:37.140 On the Locals platform, there's a picture of it.
00:30:40.180 None of them are nearly as effective
00:30:41.920 as the fake picture,
00:30:44.800 even if you know it's fake.
00:30:46.940 You can be told in advance it's fake,
00:30:48.860 and it still does its work
00:30:50.540 because everybody is so happy in the picture.
00:30:53.320 Like, genuinely, they look happy,
00:30:54.880 and they look like real people.
00:30:58.020 So be advised
00:30:59.920 that if you want to send out a fake
00:31:02.660 and it can do its work
00:31:04.420 even as a fake,
00:31:06.780 just label it.
00:31:08.120 Just label it as a fake
00:31:09.820 because it'll do everything you want it to do,
00:31:12.400 and you won't get in trouble
00:31:13.700 for trying to fool people.
00:31:15.640 Just say what it is.
00:31:16.600 All right, Michael Moore is...
00:31:21.660 I'll just tell you the story.
00:31:24.680 It feels like commentary is unnecessary.
00:31:27.820 But his point is
00:31:30.440 that we're mad at Hamas
00:31:33.380 for attacking the Jews,
00:31:35.000 but that the real fight is
00:31:36.720 we should be worried about the white Christians
00:31:38.920 because the white Christians
00:31:40.880 have been the real enemies of the Jews
00:31:42.840 for 2,000 years or something.
00:31:45.420 And if Israel would just wise up,
00:31:49.560 they would know that their real enemy
00:31:51.260 is not the people who came running at them
00:31:54.220 and shooting all their people and raping them.
00:31:56.520 They're not the real enemy.
00:31:58.880 The real enemy is the people
00:32:00.420 who sold you protection and guns
00:32:02.940 and is your closest ally.
00:32:05.620 Those are the real enemy,
00:32:07.160 according to Michael Moore.
00:32:09.320 Now, like I said,
00:32:10.540 I don't think I need to comment on that, do I?
00:32:12.800 Does that look like just plain old insanity?
00:32:19.860 I think somehow he's figured out
00:32:21.800 how to offend everybody
00:32:23.320 and be stupid at the same time.
00:32:26.780 That's quite a feat.
00:32:29.580 And it's kind of strange, actually,
00:32:31.240 because Michael Moore is one of the few people
00:32:33.660 who's been able to see things clearly
00:32:36.080 even when it wasn't his preference.
00:32:38.300 But what the hell's up with this?
00:32:41.660 I mean, it just looks crazy.
00:32:46.760 All right.
00:32:49.220 So, Miranda Devine, New York Post,
00:32:53.500 is talking about a story in which
00:32:55.500 the Chinese spy chief
00:32:58.420 who gave Hunter Biden a million dollars
00:33:00.800 for his legal services,
00:33:02.140 his name is Patrick Ho.
00:33:05.720 And I guess
00:33:06.600 the Ho wants his money back.
00:33:12.360 So he's actually trying to get a refund
00:33:14.600 because he didn't get his money's worth
00:33:16.800 from Hunter
00:33:18.280 because Hunter didn't do anything for him.
00:33:22.180 And indeed, he wasn't even a licensed attorney.
00:33:24.860 So apparently, he paid him for legal services
00:33:27.180 when he wasn't even licensed
00:33:28.920 to provide them in that place.
00:33:31.420 So, and here's the funniest part.
00:33:36.140 Somehow, I missed this little tidbit about Ho.
00:33:39.060 So there's a Chinese firm executive
00:33:41.780 who's known to be the,
00:33:43.840 yeah, I think he was called the Chinese spy chief,
00:33:47.140 you know, because he was so connected
00:33:48.640 to their intelligence.
00:33:50.660 And here's something I didn't know
00:33:52.020 was a proven thing.
00:33:54.960 That Ho had been convicted in 2019
00:33:58.920 for paying bribes
00:34:00.660 to the presidents of Chad and Uganda.
00:34:03.800 He was sentenced to three years in jail
00:34:05.740 before being deported to Hong Kong.
00:34:10.020 Did you know that
00:34:11.080 the guy who gave Biden a million dollars,
00:34:14.080 which we all knew,
00:34:15.800 did you all know
00:34:16.520 that he'd actually been in jail
00:34:18.480 for bribing presidents of countries?
00:34:20.720 How did I not know that before?
00:34:24.420 How in the world did I get here
00:34:25.980 without knowing that he was,
00:34:27.940 he was literally an official briber?
00:34:31.200 He wasn't just a guy who Biden bribed.
00:34:35.180 He was a serial briber.
00:34:38.560 Do you need to wait for the court case
00:34:40.840 to tell you what was going on there?
00:34:42.740 Well, the serial briber gave me a million dollars,
00:34:46.700 but what I think he wanted
00:34:48.360 was some legal advice.
00:34:51.860 All right, you're all talking about the glitch.
00:34:55.980 Well, I think the simulation
00:34:58.040 is telling us something
00:34:59.000 when they made his name Ho,
00:35:01.080 because if a Ho is asking
00:35:03.980 for his money back from Hunter Biden,
00:35:06.780 it doesn't get any funnier than that.
00:35:09.780 Oh, wait, it does.
00:35:10.560 The head of Hamas is named Sinwar.
00:35:13.680 Sin and war.
00:35:16.660 And Wall Street Journal is reporting
00:35:18.940 that he's been missing for a week.
00:35:22.500 He's been missing.
00:35:25.460 What do you think that means?
00:35:28.320 Well, I'm going to take a stab at it.
00:35:31.860 You have vacation.
00:35:33.380 Yeah, he just needed some time off.
00:35:35.900 He's been working long hours.
00:35:38.200 I think he's in the RV with Pergosian.
00:35:41.540 Yes.
00:35:44.400 He's riding his RV all around the West Bank.
00:35:51.660 Now, here's why I think he's not dead.
00:35:55.040 Because Israel would have told you.
00:35:57.600 Or they would have told you.
00:36:00.000 Here's why I think he's not a free man.
00:36:03.880 Because you don't go weak
00:36:05.240 during the middle of a war
00:36:06.220 without anybody seeing you.
00:36:07.500 You don't go weak.
00:36:11.500 Here's what I think is happening.
00:36:14.460 I think the Israelis have captured him.
00:36:17.420 I think he's being interrogated.
00:36:20.880 Interrogated.
00:36:22.160 To find out what he knows.
00:36:24.200 And if he doesn't know anything that they need,
00:36:27.820 well, I think that they'll interrogate him twice as hard.
00:36:30.700 Yeah, I feel like he's getting interrogated,
00:36:34.520 is what I think.
00:36:36.240 Now, that's just a guess.
00:36:37.960 But it certainly doesn't make sense that he'd be dead
00:36:40.360 and nobody would tell us.
00:36:41.380 And it doesn't make sense that he'd be alive
00:36:43.860 and say nothing for a week during the height of the war.
00:36:46.320 So I'm going to go with he's already been captured.
00:36:53.360 And if you hear from Israel
00:36:54.820 that, no, they talked to him in a friendly way,
00:36:59.320 but they released him to drive around in his RV,
00:37:02.520 you know he's being pregosioned.
00:37:04.160 And there's a report from...
00:37:08.660 I saw Mario Naufel was reporting this on X.
00:37:11.600 I don't know where the original report came from.
00:37:14.420 No, a new Defense Department report.
00:37:17.200 Why would the Defense Department report on this?
00:37:21.020 There's a Defense Department report
00:37:22.740 that says that Trump's White House medical unit
00:37:25.440 was giving out a lot of stimulants,
00:37:28.700 you know, like speed type things,
00:37:30.140 like Modena, Phenol, and Xanax.
00:37:34.860 So they're a, quote,
00:37:35.700 a wash in speed, officials said.
00:37:38.520 Does that sound like a story
00:37:39.800 that our U.S. military should be producing an election here?
00:37:46.000 Does that sound good to you?
00:37:48.080 That the Defense Department
00:37:51.100 would put out that report
00:37:53.620 about the past commander-in-chief
00:37:56.520 and maybe the future commander-in-chief?
00:38:01.520 No.
00:38:02.640 Everybody involved in that should be fired immediately.
00:38:06.300 Shouldn't they?
00:38:07.740 Or at least whenever the new president comes in.
00:38:10.760 How in the world does the Defense Department
00:38:13.300 get this involved in politics during a political year?
00:38:16.840 How about they just shut the fuck up about that?
00:38:20.040 Right?
00:38:20.360 If there was no problem that came from it
00:38:22.900 and there was no report there was a problem,
00:38:24.880 how about you just shut up?
00:38:26.380 How about we've lost all respect for the military
00:38:30.240 because you do shit like this?
00:38:32.620 Like, was this reported by, you know,
00:38:34.340 a general in an address?
00:38:37.120 I mean, this is completely inappropriate for the military
00:38:39.780 to be involved in politics in an election year.
00:38:42.800 Just hold on to that report.
00:38:45.200 Yeah?
00:38:45.820 Maybe, you know, tell somebody who needs to know about it,
00:38:48.220 but don't tell the public.
00:38:50.180 Crazy.
00:38:51.420 There's just something totally wrong with that.
00:38:53.020 They should all be fired.
00:38:55.040 All right.
00:38:55.980 But I'm not too concerned that they're using speed
00:38:58.480 because that is a performance enhancer.
00:39:01.500 Might be terrible in lots of other ways,
00:39:04.720 but the fact is it's a productivity enhancer.
00:39:10.020 This annex is another problem.
00:39:13.580 All right.
00:39:15.100 Here's my take on the 2020 election.
00:39:17.500 I think this is where I'm going to end up on.
00:39:19.780 I don't think we'll ever agree in this country.
00:39:23.780 We'll never agree whether the 2020 election
00:39:26.360 was completely fair or not.
00:39:32.540 Would you agree?
00:39:34.720 That we'll never agree if 2020 was rigged or not rigged.
00:39:39.840 And there's no amount of evidence
00:39:41.400 that will change the minds of at least a third of the country.
00:39:45.020 But here's something we can agree on
00:39:47.120 because we know this.
00:39:48.600 There's just tons of reporting on it.
00:39:50.760 There's a lot of stuff that can't be audited.
00:39:53.800 For example, there are things behind locked doors
00:39:57.080 we can't look at.
00:39:58.920 There are records that have been deleted,
00:40:03.220 digital records.
00:40:04.800 There are physical things that have been destroyed or lost,
00:40:07.940 and all of them are important.
00:40:10.660 They're like swing state, you know,
00:40:12.780 could change the election kind of stuff.
00:40:14.440 They're all lost, deleted.
00:40:16.880 Now, if you just consider the stuff that's lost and deleted,
00:40:22.880 that would be enough to conclude that you cannot tell
00:40:26.320 or you can't audit the election.
00:40:28.720 In other words, there wouldn't be any way to know
00:40:30.320 if it were fraudulent because we have such a poor ability
00:40:34.400 to audit from beginning to end.
00:40:36.400 So here's where I think we should find middle ground.
00:40:40.780 We do not have a system that biased design allows you to know who won.
00:40:46.080 Our system, by design, meaning that the people are fully aware of what they're doing,
00:40:54.880 designed it to prevent the public from knowing who won
00:40:58.780 so that when they tell you who won,
00:41:01.820 you'll just have to take their word for it.
00:41:03.400 Now, under that situation,
00:41:08.360 how could you possibly think the election is not rigged?
00:41:12.820 That pretty much guarantees it.
00:41:15.540 Pretty much guarantees it.
00:41:16.860 Now, you could argue all day about what the court did or did not find.
00:41:21.980 Not relevant.
00:41:23.860 You could tell me that we haven't proved it in the court of law.
00:41:27.920 Right. Irrelevant.
00:41:29.980 You could say that there's no scientific study
00:41:32.920 with a double-blind experiment to show that the vote was rigged.
00:41:37.740 True. You got me there.
00:41:40.320 But proof doesn't mean the same thing in science
00:41:43.540 as it means in the court of law
00:41:45.720 or as it means to your general common sense.
00:41:50.180 My general common sense says
00:41:52.240 that if we have a system that is super valuable if you could rig it,
00:41:57.760 I mean, the ability to rig it would be worth what?
00:42:00.180 A billion dollars to somebody who could get it?
00:42:02.900 If you were a hacker and you literally could rig it and it was just you,
00:42:07.800 you could charge a billion dollars.
00:42:10.960 And, you know, Bitcoin or something.
00:42:12.720 And so, yes, if you have a system that can't be audited,
00:42:19.000 it's rigged.
00:42:21.360 I would say that's proof.
00:42:24.040 If you had a system that was designed to not be rigged,
00:42:28.180 then I wouldn't have that opinion.
00:42:30.120 But it's designed to not tell you who won.
00:42:32.440 Nate Silver, who's no Republican,
00:42:37.280 but he's intellectually flexible,
00:42:41.280 which means he follows the data where it goes,
00:42:43.920 and he says what it says,
00:42:45.640 which I really appreciate about him,
00:42:48.800 which is not to say he and I would agree on all the topics.
00:42:51.760 I don't know if we would.
00:42:52.760 But I just appreciate his intellectual honesty.
00:42:59.300 Very rare.
00:43:00.900 Very rare.
00:43:01.660 I will add him to the Internet Dad list,
00:43:05.160 despite not being, you know, right-leaning.
00:43:10.260 But here's what he said.
00:43:11.520 He said 10% of Biden's 2020 voters
00:43:14.320 now say they're going to vote for Trump.
00:43:16.660 But only less than 1% of Trump voters
00:43:20.480 say that now they're going to vote for Biden.
00:43:23.860 And Nate wants to clarify,
00:43:27.200 because somebody was asking him about this.
00:43:29.240 He said they're switching their votes.
00:43:31.520 They're not undecided.
00:43:33.880 Now, these are people who said,
00:43:35.260 I'm totally going to vote for Trump.
00:43:38.120 Now, I'm going to say it again,
00:43:39.680 just because I think it's so provocative.
00:43:42.740 I wouldn't put a high likelihood on this.
00:43:46.660 But we're now actually in the environment
00:43:49.340 where Trump could win the black male vote,
00:43:53.380 not the female vote.
00:43:54.380 He doesn't have a chance for that.
00:43:55.980 But he could win the black male vote.
00:43:58.860 That is actually within grasp.
00:44:02.140 Unbelievable.
00:44:03.900 It would be the most insane thing
00:44:07.260 that ever happened in politics.
00:44:09.400 Now, correct me if I'm wrong,
00:44:12.520 but has a Republican ever won the Hispanic vote?
00:44:16.660 Because I'm a little confused
00:44:18.020 about the polling on that,
00:44:20.160 because it's showing he's going to win
00:44:21.440 the Hispanic vote.
00:44:24.040 Oh, George Bush?
00:44:25.820 No, I think George W. just did well.
00:44:28.460 He didn't win it.
00:44:29.780 Yeah, yeah, he was less than half.
00:44:33.080 Can you imagine?
00:44:34.860 Imagine in the context of being the build-the-wall guy,
00:44:37.940 Trump wins the Hispanic vote.
00:44:42.280 And he's on track to do it, I think.
00:44:44.980 And then imagine
00:44:46.000 that he actually won the black male vote.
00:44:50.120 I think that's totally legit.
00:44:54.700 And I feel like it's a fear response.
00:45:01.000 So I think the difference between black women and black men
00:45:04.060 would be partly that the black women
00:45:06.760 may be responding to the sexist stuff,
00:45:09.600 and the black men are like, eh.
00:45:11.320 So it might be a little bit of a gender difference there.
00:45:13.840 But I think it's more of fear.
00:45:18.580 I think that if you're female,
00:45:20.540 I'm just speculating, by the way.
00:45:21.900 I don't know if this is true.
00:45:23.280 But I would guess if you're female,
00:45:25.340 it's scarier to walk down the street at night.
00:45:27.920 Anywhere.
00:45:29.280 Right?
00:45:30.280 Because you're just not as capable
00:45:32.420 of fighting somebody off.
00:45:34.460 So, and I think men are just,
00:45:36.400 maybe just a little bit more attracted
00:45:38.260 to risk or danger.
00:45:40.680 And that the black men are looking at this,
00:45:44.260 and when they hear stuff like,
00:45:46.060 oh, he might try to stay in office
00:45:47.540 and be a dictator,
00:45:49.120 I feel like they just made me laugh at that.
00:45:52.300 Like, nah, it's bullshit.
00:45:55.460 And I do think
00:45:57.520 that black men can spot bullshit.
00:46:01.400 I think they can.
00:46:03.360 I think they might be less hypnotized
00:46:05.380 than a lot of people in our society today.
00:46:08.260 And, you know,
00:46:11.680 I won't want to delve into that.
00:46:13.560 It's just speculation.
00:46:16.200 But yeah, there could be a big change
00:46:17.440 and it could happen fast.
00:46:19.260 I'm not going to predict it
00:46:20.620 because the odds are still against it.
00:46:24.020 But it's,
00:46:24.880 I'm going to give it a solid
00:46:26.280 20 to 30% chance
00:46:29.700 that he wins black men.
00:46:31.500 And that would just be insane.
00:46:34.000 Now, if Biden drops out
00:46:36.160 and somebody else comes in,
00:46:37.300 then it's a new ballgame.
00:46:40.720 So 60 Minutes had a report,
00:46:42.500 and this is more evidence
00:46:43.740 that the entire media
00:46:45.460 is lined up against Biden.
00:46:48.180 Listen to this story.
00:46:49.660 You tell me if you think
00:46:50.620 60 Minutes would have reported this
00:46:52.660 if they weren't trying
00:46:53.960 to get rid of Biden.
00:46:54.660 So they had Raul Ortiz,
00:46:58.200 who had been the chief
00:46:59.260 of U.S. Border Patrol under Biden
00:47:00.920 until he retired.
00:47:02.900 That's the chief retired,
00:47:04.300 not Biden.
00:47:05.200 I know, it looks like Biden retired,
00:47:07.080 but he didn't.
00:47:08.200 Like, not officially.
00:47:08.920 In fact, if you look at his work schedule today,
00:47:13.980 there's proof he,
00:47:15.220 you know, Biden didn't retire.
00:47:17.880 Has anybody looked at it today?
00:47:20.220 Have you seen his schedule for the day,
00:47:21.960 for Monday?
00:47:23.280 There's a lot going on, so.
00:47:26.380 Oh, oh.
00:47:27.980 Yeah, his schedule is open today.
00:47:29.880 He has nothing scheduled.
00:47:30.820 The president of the United States
00:47:34.000 has nothing scheduled.
00:47:37.840 Which probably means
00:47:39.000 they're talking to him,
00:47:39.960 if you know what I mean.
00:47:41.860 Do you think they're talking to him?
00:47:44.020 They?
00:47:44.900 Do you think they are talking to him?
00:47:46.480 Yeah, I think so.
00:47:48.160 I think he's eating ice cream
00:47:49.720 and hearing things
00:47:50.400 he doesn't want to hear right now.
00:47:53.220 Or he could be practicing
00:47:55.820 for the State of the Union.
00:47:57.360 Do you think he would step down
00:48:01.840 during the State of the Union?
00:48:05.340 You know, what's interesting
00:48:06.380 is they must be having a conversation
00:48:08.160 of whether he should step down
00:48:09.440 before the State of the Union.
00:48:11.160 But if he did that,
00:48:12.140 then there would be nobody to give.
00:48:13.660 Well, he could still give
00:48:14.420 the State of the Union
00:48:15.080 because he's still president.
00:48:17.140 I think they're afraid
00:48:18.240 of what he would do
00:48:19.260 during the State of the Union
00:48:20.240 because that's a long speech.
00:48:22.580 Do you think Biden can
00:48:23.960 do a one-hour speech?
00:48:28.220 Even from a teleprompter?
00:48:30.340 I think they're worried
00:48:31.740 about how to handle it.
00:48:33.740 Here's how I would handle it.
00:48:36.900 I would say he's stepping down
00:48:38.720 and then I'd just put Kamala in there
00:48:40.820 and take your chances.
00:48:44.340 Yeah.
00:48:44.760 Just say he's not going to run.
00:48:46.300 He changed his mind.
00:48:47.900 And we'll make some decisions
00:48:49.600 about who does what.
00:48:51.540 But in the meantime,
00:48:52.540 Kamala's going to do
00:48:53.340 the State of the Union.
00:48:54.440 You know,
00:48:55.600 I wouldn't predict it,
00:48:57.780 but I'll bet
00:48:58.360 they're talking about it.
00:49:00.180 So,
00:49:01.420 I'll bet they're talking about it.
00:49:03.560 Oh, it's supposed to be
00:49:04.440 delivered in written form.
00:49:06.120 Oh, that's a good update.
00:49:08.120 Yeah, so I guess
00:49:08.660 he would have the option
00:49:09.460 of just doing it in writing.
00:49:11.700 But that would certainly
00:49:12.800 be a tip-off.
00:49:15.960 All right.
00:49:16.660 So, if the,
00:49:17.780 getting back to the story,
00:49:18.940 the chief of the U.S. Border Patrol
00:49:20.440 said he never once met Biden.
00:49:24.940 The chief of the Border Patrol
00:49:27.860 never met Biden.
00:49:36.080 Oh, my God.
00:49:39.320 Oh, my God.
00:49:41.120 All right.
00:49:41.540 In Haiti,
00:49:45.580 apparently,
00:49:46.360 the criminal gangs
00:49:48.740 have seemed to be coordinating now.
00:49:54.060 And they're under the,
00:49:55.220 maybe under the control
00:49:56.480 or leadership
00:49:57.020 of an ex-elite police officer
00:49:59.980 from Haiti.
00:50:01.560 Uh-oh.
00:50:02.500 They have actual
00:50:03.480 professional military leader.
00:50:07.200 And apparently,
00:50:07.940 they attacked the prisons
00:50:09.660 and released the prisoners
00:50:10.860 and then attacked
00:50:12.400 some other things.
00:50:13.400 And it looks like
00:50:14.180 they're trying to prevent
00:50:15.460 the current leader
00:50:17.140 from returning
00:50:18.560 to the country.
00:50:19.400 They're trying to take over
00:50:20.580 before the current leader
00:50:21.560 gets back.
00:50:22.320 Now, here's the thing.
00:50:23.760 I don't know,
00:50:24.340 is that good or bad?
00:50:26.060 Honestly,
00:50:26.540 I can't tell.
00:50:27.980 Haiti is such,
00:50:29.080 you know,
00:50:29.300 they got such troubles.
00:50:31.280 Is it bad
00:50:32.720 if they get rid
00:50:33.360 of the current leader
00:50:34.140 and the criminals
00:50:35.480 take over?
00:50:36.940 Is it really
00:50:37.640 going to be worse?
00:50:38.640 I don't know.
00:50:39.660 All right,
00:50:41.140 Nikki Haley won
00:50:41.940 the Washington, D.C. primary.
00:50:45.980 And the only thing
00:50:47.280 I got out of this
00:50:48.040 is that she apparently
00:50:48.920 has no advisors
00:50:50.300 helping her on our tweeting.
00:50:52.740 Because after she won
00:50:53.900 the D.C. primary,
00:50:55.280 and by the way,
00:50:55.880 she won it handily,
00:50:58.900 700,000 people in the city
00:51:01.380 and Trump only got
00:51:02.580 less than 700 votes.
00:51:05.440 So he didn't put
00:51:06.540 any effort into it
00:51:07.500 because Washington, D.C.
00:51:08.660 is just all Democrats,
00:51:09.960 no point in it.
00:51:11.320 But the Democrats,
00:51:13.220 or the few people
00:51:14.380 who voted anyway,
00:51:15.660 gave Nikki
00:51:16.680 a commanding victory,
00:51:18.720 even though it's
00:51:19.400 the tiniest little state
00:51:20.320 and of no consequence
00:51:21.420 whatsoever.
00:51:22.940 And here's how
00:51:23.740 the news reported it.
00:51:25.080 Axios reported it
00:51:26.020 as first women
00:51:27.320 to win a Republican primary.
00:51:29.880 Oh, Axios.
00:51:31.880 You're so funny.
00:51:36.600 Axios.
00:51:38.360 Axios is starting
00:51:39.560 to sound like a punchline now,
00:51:41.120 isn't it?
00:51:41.880 I'll bet you
00:51:42.380 every time I say Axios
00:51:43.980 from now forward,
00:51:46.200 it's going to follow
00:51:47.020 with a stupid story.
00:51:48.840 You want to bet?
00:51:52.080 Anyway,
00:51:53.140 Mark Elias,
00:51:54.260 do you remember his name?
00:51:56.040 Mark Elias.
00:51:56.860 So he's the lawyer
00:51:58.300 who was famous
00:51:59.160 for not only pushing
00:52:00.080 the Russia collusion hoax,
00:52:03.380 but he's the one
00:52:04.660 who was on the ground
00:52:05.420 changing all the rules
00:52:06.500 in 2020
00:52:07.620 so that the Democrats
00:52:09.620 got a big win.
00:52:10.800 So most people
00:52:11.520 would call him
00:52:12.060 an election rigger,
00:52:13.660 but the legal kind.
00:52:15.360 Nobody's suggesting
00:52:16.280 he necessarily
00:52:17.120 broke any laws.
00:52:18.520 He just worked
00:52:19.300 within the legal system
00:52:20.300 to get the laws changed
00:52:21.440 more favorably
00:52:22.440 for the Democrats.
00:52:24.020 And it worked.
00:52:24.820 So, you know,
00:52:26.800 he's mocking Trump
00:52:28.180 for only getting
00:52:28.980 a few votes there.
00:52:32.280 And here's how we know
00:52:33.320 Nikki Haley
00:52:33.820 has nobody helping her
00:52:34.860 with her posts on X.
00:52:37.020 She, quote,
00:52:37.840 we're going to fight
00:52:38.720 for every inch.
00:52:46.540 In my capacity
00:52:48.040 as a professional humorist,
00:52:51.200 I have standards.
00:52:52.960 I do have standards.
00:52:53.800 And one of my standards is
00:52:55.020 I can't pounce
00:52:58.440 if it's too easy.
00:53:01.220 If it's too easy,
00:53:02.580 the professionals have,
00:53:03.740 we have to step back.
00:53:06.540 Now, if I may,
00:53:09.780 may I step back
00:53:10.680 from the microphone
00:53:11.380 and allow you
00:53:12.140 in the comments
00:53:12.840 to do your own jokes?
00:53:15.580 Because honestly,
00:53:17.000 this is not for professionals.
00:53:18.840 When she makes it this easy,
00:53:20.680 this is for all of you.
00:53:22.000 So, take your time.
00:53:23.700 I'd just like to back up
00:53:24.620 from the microphone.
00:53:26.200 Go wild.
00:53:27.600 She's going to fight
00:53:28.400 for every inch.
00:53:29.200 Go.
00:53:29.360 Go.
00:53:40.180 How you doing over there?
00:53:41.300 Are you about done?
00:53:42.660 There you go.
00:53:43.720 There you go.
00:53:44.500 Nicely done.
00:53:45.580 Nicely done.
00:53:46.260 X-rated,
00:53:46.840 just like I like it.
00:53:47.740 I think you did
00:53:53.820 a very good job
00:53:54.680 for amateurs.
00:53:57.660 And I won't embarrass you
00:53:59.440 with my professional
00:54:00.420 contributions.
00:54:02.380 But very good,
00:54:03.120 very good.
00:54:03.700 All right.
00:54:07.560 Finally,
00:54:08.080 I'd like to give
00:54:08.580 an IQ test.
00:54:09.520 Do you want to answer
00:54:13.400 before I ask the question?
00:54:16.160 There it is.
00:54:17.540 Damn it,
00:54:17.980 you're so smart.
00:54:20.120 Now,
00:54:20.640 if you're on
00:54:21.120 the other platforms,
00:54:22.800 if you're not on locals,
00:54:23.900 you're not seeing
00:54:24.520 the dazzling display
00:54:25.600 of intelligence,
00:54:27.300 I haven't even
00:54:28.680 asked the question yet.
00:54:31.000 And there's just
00:54:31.780 a wall
00:54:32.740 of correct answers
00:54:33.760 for the question
00:54:34.720 I haven't even asked.
00:54:37.280 Watch this.
00:54:37.960 I'll now ask
00:54:40.560 the question.
00:54:42.660 Based on Erasmus
00:54:43.700 and Paul,
00:54:45.420 and you have to get
00:54:46.640 this within
00:54:47.180 two basis points,
00:54:49.380 how many people
00:54:50.920 said they think
00:54:52.060 Biden is
00:54:53.040 the stronger supporter
00:54:54.740 of Israel
00:54:55.440 than Trump?
00:54:59.200 27%
00:55:00.240 is the answer.
00:55:01.360 27.
00:55:01.880 You all said 25
00:55:02.780 before I asked
00:55:03.480 the question,
00:55:04.060 but as soon as
00:55:05.280 I said it's within two,
00:55:06.420 you quickly modified
00:55:07.380 to 27.
00:55:09.100 And I think it's funny
00:55:10.140 that nobody said 23.
00:55:12.300 That's even funnier.
00:55:13.900 You knew it was going
00:55:14.540 to be more,
00:55:15.600 not less.
00:55:17.280 Yes,
00:55:17.760 if you're new to this,
00:55:18.980 the reason we can all
00:55:20.000 guess this before
00:55:20.840 the question is asked
00:55:21.840 is that for some reason,
00:55:24.560 25% of poll respondents
00:55:28.180 will always say
00:55:29.260 the stupidest answer.
00:55:31.040 And it doesn't matter
00:55:31.920 what the topic is.
00:55:33.360 And I'm not saying
00:55:34.640 that they're all
00:55:35.180 people I disagree with.
00:55:37.820 It's even on topics
00:55:39.180 where I agree
00:55:40.480 with the majority
00:55:41.120 or don't.
00:55:42.760 It's just everywhere.
00:55:44.360 25% get every poll
00:55:46.480 question wrong,
00:55:47.460 even if it's an easy one.
00:55:48.580 And furthermore,
00:55:52.760 according to Rasmussen,
00:55:54.660 the support for Israel
00:55:57.020 looks like it's dropping.
00:55:59.680 45% of American voters
00:56:02.340 sympathize more with Israel,
00:56:05.420 given the Gaza situation.
00:56:08.120 And that's down
00:56:09.080 from 48% a month ago.
00:56:11.340 And it's down quite a bit
00:56:14.300 from 59% less November.
00:56:17.740 So before there were any,
00:56:19.320 before there was direct war
00:56:20.920 in Gaza,
00:56:22.480 59% were pro-Israeli
00:56:24.480 versus the Palestinian situation.
00:56:28.180 And that's dropped quite a bit.
00:56:30.920 Now, as is obvious, I guess,
00:56:34.300 the more people would die
00:56:35.580 in Gaza,
00:56:36.480 the less support Israel
00:56:37.980 is going to get.
00:56:38.740 And, you know,
00:56:41.320 as I said,
00:56:42.700 in war,
00:56:43.520 all the data is false.
00:56:45.760 So we have no idea.
00:56:47.760 Yeah, we talked about the 9-0.
00:56:51.460 So we don't know
00:56:52.460 what's going to happen.
00:56:59.240 I'm sorry.
00:57:00.120 He took me right off
00:57:01.240 of my train of thought.
00:57:03.700 I was on three different topics
00:57:05.180 while I was trying to talk.
00:57:06.540 I had three things going
00:57:07.460 in my head at the same time.
00:57:09.320 So, but my point is that
00:57:11.020 even though the death toll
00:57:14.320 in Gaza
00:57:15.100 is not any kind
00:57:16.900 of a credible number,
00:57:18.620 people are going to start
00:57:19.800 repeating the number
00:57:20.700 that comes from Hamas
00:57:21.980 because it's the only one.
00:57:23.740 Right?
00:57:23.940 So if Israel doesn't have
00:57:25.300 their own number,
00:57:26.980 the only one that's out there
00:57:28.340 is the one that's going
00:57:28.940 to get reported.
00:57:29.880 And even if they report it
00:57:31.360 as a not perfectly
00:57:33.420 credible number,
00:57:35.120 it still becomes the number.
00:57:37.020 Right?
00:57:37.220 If it's the one in your head,
00:57:38.220 it becomes the one in your head.
00:57:39.860 Now, let me give you
00:57:40.620 an example of why
00:57:41.540 this is a problem.
00:57:42.380 In my corporate days,
00:57:43.920 I was the,
00:57:45.300 usually the finance
00:57:47.080 and budget guy.
00:57:48.260 And so my boss
00:57:49.880 would call me in
00:57:50.860 and say,
00:57:51.840 have you done the analysis
00:57:53.200 on this or that?
00:57:54.280 And I'd say,
00:57:54.640 no,
00:57:55.100 I haven't done that yet.
00:57:56.900 And then she would say,
00:57:57.960 but I've got to put
00:57:58.980 the budget together.
00:57:59.820 So can you give me a number?
00:58:02.580 You know,
00:58:02.760 what's your best guess?
00:58:03.980 You know,
00:58:04.120 I'm just doing the first draft
00:58:05.860 of the budget.
00:58:06.940 And I would say,
00:58:08.200 first draft,
00:58:09.040 do you say?
00:58:10.180 She goes,
00:58:10.540 yeah,
00:58:10.680 it's just the first draft.
00:58:12.020 Just give me,
00:58:12.780 you know,
00:58:13.060 the best estimate you can.
00:58:14.540 I know that it'll get
00:58:15.200 refined later,
00:58:16.700 but,
00:58:17.000 you know,
00:58:17.300 this just to get
00:58:18.520 the general idea
00:58:19.420 of the budget.
00:58:20.520 Do you think
00:58:21.180 I would give her a number?
00:58:23.760 Absolutely not.
00:58:26.200 No way.
00:58:27.720 No way.
00:58:29.460 That is a rookie mistake.
00:58:32.620 You die
00:58:33.500 before you give that number.
00:58:35.160 Do you know why?
00:58:36.420 Because whatever number you get
00:58:37.640 becomes the number forever.
00:58:39.520 So if the real number is,
00:58:41.080 it's going to cost us $1,000,
00:58:43.040 but you didn't know,
00:58:44.780 and you're like,
00:58:45.260 I don't know.
00:58:46.740 I feel like it could be
00:58:47.980 like $50,000.
00:58:50.560 And then later,
00:58:51.500 you could come back
00:58:52.100 the very next day
00:58:52.900 and say,
00:58:53.240 oh,
00:58:53.660 now that I've analyzed it,
00:58:54.760 it's really only $1,000.
00:58:55.640 That $50,000
00:58:57.380 is going to live forever.
00:58:59.140 Everybody who heard it
00:59:00.180 is going to remember the $50,000,
00:59:01.560 and you will not be able
00:59:03.040 to talk them out of it
00:59:03.980 with all of your data
00:59:04.940 and your graphs
00:59:05.500 and your numbers.
00:59:07.820 So,
00:59:09.260 Israel
00:59:09.740 may be making
00:59:11.240 a persuasion mistake
00:59:12.480 by not giving
00:59:13.520 their own numbers,
00:59:14.840 but probably they think
00:59:16.440 their own numbers
00:59:17.060 would be high,
00:59:18.280 and that would be bad as well.
00:59:19.580 So,
00:59:20.960 the risk is
00:59:22.100 the one number
00:59:23.440 that we keep hearing
00:59:24.460 is from the
00:59:25.500 Hamas
00:59:26.840 Palestinian side,
00:59:28.860 and as low
00:59:29.740 as the credibility is,
00:59:32.260 yeah,
00:59:34.640 as low as the credibility is,
00:59:37.740 it's going to be the one
00:59:39.000 everybody remembers.
00:59:40.480 So,
00:59:40.780 that's really going to hurt Israel.
00:59:43.160 All right,
00:59:43.700 European Union
00:59:44.980 fined Apple
00:59:45.680 $2 billion
00:59:46.500 for being anti-competitive,
00:59:49.760 according to their
00:59:50.500 European laws,
00:59:51.820 meaning that Apple
00:59:52.740 was favoring
00:59:53.500 its own music streaming
00:59:54.540 service over the rivals.
00:59:56.940 Now,
00:59:57.720 not only do they favor it,
01:00:00.320 it literally
01:00:01.380 operates like a virus
01:00:02.900 on your phone
01:00:03.660 and on your computer.
01:00:05.400 How many times
01:00:06.140 have you had to remove
01:00:07.240 that Apple music
01:00:08.900 advertisement
01:00:09.700 that popped up
01:00:10.500 on your screen?
01:00:12.020 Oh, my God,
01:00:13.020 I hate that thing.
01:00:14.940 I hate it.
01:00:16.060 Would I have to go
01:00:17.080 manually delete it
01:00:18.340 every time?
01:00:19.560 Wow.
01:00:21.600 So, yes,
01:00:22.520 Apple was, in fact,
01:00:24.200 favoring their own
01:00:24.960 music service,
01:00:25.740 and I guess that's illegal
01:00:26.800 in the European Union.
01:00:29.080 Now,
01:00:30.800 I,
01:00:31.720 just for,
01:00:33.100 you know,
01:00:34.240 full disclosure,
01:00:35.320 I used to have
01:00:35.920 Apple stock
01:00:36.520 for quite a few years,
01:00:38.080 a number of years,
01:00:38.940 did great,
01:00:40.000 but I sold it recently
01:00:41.280 because the AI risk
01:00:43.200 feels too big.
01:00:45.140 Now,
01:00:45.660 in all likelihood,
01:00:48.420 you know,
01:00:48.780 if you were going to bet,
01:00:50.280 you know,
01:00:50.860 a small amount of number,
01:00:52.260 if you were going to,
01:00:52.800 if you were going to make
01:00:53.400 a $10 bet,
01:00:54.900 I would bet
01:00:55.620 that they would do fine
01:00:56.580 and that they'll,
01:00:57.820 they'll come up
01:00:58.340 with a really good AI,
01:00:59.520 their own,
01:01:00.860 they'll build it
01:01:01.740 into the operating system,
01:01:03.260 they'll have another
01:01:04.100 few super cycles,
01:01:05.800 probably do fine.
01:01:06.940 So if I'm going to bet
01:01:07.720 a hundred dollars
01:01:08.780 or ten dollars,
01:01:10.680 I'd bet on Apple.
01:01:13.140 But if you're going to bet
01:01:14.120 a million dollars,
01:01:16.700 you want to start thinking
01:01:18.240 about some diversification
01:01:19.700 because you can lose
01:01:21.320 ten or a hundred,
01:01:22.260 but you don't want to lose
01:01:23.040 a million dollars.
01:01:24.600 So,
01:01:25.220 I got rid of my investment
01:01:27.840 because it was no longer
01:01:29.440 a monopoly.
01:01:32.200 So the reason I owned Apple
01:01:33.780 is that they operated
01:01:35.180 like a monopoly.
01:01:36.660 Not just a monopoly,
01:01:38.060 but a diversified monopoly.
01:01:39.700 It was like perfect.
01:01:40.960 And it was very predictable.
01:01:42.300 It was just giant,
01:01:43.240 the biggest cash cow
01:01:44.200 of all time.
01:01:45.680 But AI could change
01:01:46.780 that overnight.
01:01:48.600 If they don't have
01:01:49.900 a killer AI phone
01:01:51.640 in the works,
01:01:52.960 it could be a problem.
01:01:54.320 But they probably do.
01:01:55.780 Like I said,
01:01:56.680 at least,
01:01:57.420 I don't know,
01:01:58.560 two chances out of three
01:01:59.640 that they'll nail it.
01:02:03.080 But I think the phone
01:02:04.740 is going to get rid
01:02:05.680 of apps
01:02:06.360 or something like it.
01:02:10.180 Yeah.
01:02:10.460 I think the phone
01:02:11.300 might turn into
01:02:12.240 you talk to your phone
01:02:13.920 and then your phone
01:02:14.720 goes off the network
01:02:15.880 and then,
01:02:17.160 you know,
01:02:17.400 the apps might live
01:02:18.540 in the network
01:02:19.240 in some sense.
01:02:20.680 But you don't need
01:02:21.580 them on your phone.
01:02:24.480 And so,
01:02:25.900 I don't know,
01:02:26.600 Apple's got some
01:02:27.440 big things to fix.
01:02:29.680 NBC News says
01:02:30.720 maybe the polar bears
01:02:32.200 have adapted
01:02:33.200 and they won't go extinct
01:02:35.420 from all the climate change.
01:02:37.760 How do you interpret that?
01:02:39.800 The first hint
01:02:40.740 is NBC News.
01:02:41.880 What's that tell you?
01:02:43.560 It tells you
01:02:44.020 it's the official,
01:02:45.340 you know,
01:02:46.100 CIA
01:02:46.600 and or Democrat
01:02:47.900 narrative.
01:02:49.280 So if their narrative,
01:02:51.060 which used to be
01:02:52.120 the polar bears
01:02:52.820 are going to die
01:02:53.360 from climate change,
01:02:54.980 has changed to,
01:02:56.180 during an election year,
01:02:57.720 election year,
01:02:58.400 it has changed to,
01:03:01.420 looks like those
01:03:02.640 polar bears
01:03:03.240 are going to do fine.
01:03:04.460 It seems they've adapted.
01:03:07.120 Does it look to you
01:03:08.700 like they're going to,
01:03:09.960 they need to come up
01:03:11.160 with an explanation
01:03:12.040 of why climate change
01:03:14.000 didn't kill the polar bears?
01:03:17.240 It looks like that to me.
01:03:19.160 It looks like a little bit
01:03:20.700 of the cats on the roof
01:03:22.260 for the climate change alarm,
01:03:24.020 doesn't it?
01:03:25.420 Well,
01:03:25.960 we don't want to say
01:03:26.880 that all the predictions
01:03:27.840 have been bullshit forever,
01:03:29.700 but it looks like
01:03:30.920 maybe those polar bears
01:03:32.420 will survive after all.
01:03:34.980 Yeah,
01:03:35.880 got lucky.
01:03:37.400 Do you know
01:03:37.940 who is just proven right
01:03:39.700 by polar bears surviving,
01:03:42.320 if that's in fact
01:03:43.260 what's happening?
01:03:46.340 Bjorn Lomborg
01:03:47.540 and everybody who said,
01:03:50.840 and Vivek,
01:03:51.820 and basically
01:03:52.500 everybody who said
01:03:54.140 that the alarm
01:03:55.900 is overdone.
01:03:57.840 and that we're really
01:03:59.220 good at adjusting,
01:04:00.820 but not only are humans
01:04:02.460 really good at adjusting,
01:04:03.980 and even if the,
01:04:05.380 you know,
01:04:05.840 the natural disasters
01:04:07.080 are extreme,
01:04:09.060 we figure out
01:04:09.920 how to lower
01:04:10.480 our death count
01:04:11.260 to the point
01:04:12.300 where it's almost minuscule
01:04:13.860 compared to what
01:04:14.500 it was historically.
01:04:15.880 And it turns out
01:04:16.740 that you could even be
01:04:17.900 a dumb old polar bear
01:04:19.100 and you could figure out
01:04:20.600 how to not die
01:04:21.320 from climate change
01:04:22.240 if you have enough time
01:04:23.720 to work on it.
01:04:24.700 Even the polar bear
01:04:27.460 has had enough time.
01:04:29.060 Like,
01:04:29.840 I feel like it's
01:04:31.500 one degree warmer
01:04:32.360 this year
01:04:32.840 than it was
01:04:33.280 ten years ago.
01:04:34.020 What do you think?
01:04:35.100 And the other polar bear
01:04:36.040 is like,
01:04:36.900 yeah,
01:04:38.100 you know what,
01:04:38.640 I'm feeling it.
01:04:40.240 Maybe we should go
01:04:41.020 look for some,
01:04:41.780 you know,
01:04:43.120 salmon or something
01:04:43.900 on the dry land,
01:04:45.200 get off these icebergs.
01:04:46.940 So I think
01:04:47.520 that's how it worked out.
01:04:48.580 I think the polar bear
01:04:50.280 is much smarter
01:04:51.760 than you think.
01:04:52.420 Uh-oh.
01:05:00.440 Ooh.
01:05:03.300 Okay.
01:05:06.380 And meanwhile,
01:05:07.880 New York Sea levels
01:05:09.880 are predicting...
01:05:11.580 There's a new prediction
01:05:15.800 that the New York Sea levels,
01:05:17.740 because all the melting ice,
01:05:19.720 could surge up to 13 inches.
01:05:21.600 This is the water line.
01:05:24.120 But it could be 114 inches
01:05:26.200 based on a new study.
01:05:30.040 How do the old studies do?
01:05:33.280 Like,
01:05:33.820 I'm a little confused
01:05:34.760 by this,
01:05:36.740 because I thought
01:05:37.320 Al Gore said
01:05:38.120 we're already underwater.
01:05:40.180 What's going on?
01:05:42.120 All right,
01:05:42.460 let me ask you this.
01:05:43.260 Do you think
01:05:44.160 it would be appropriate
01:05:45.160 if you're going to print
01:05:47.220 an article
01:05:47.680 about the sea levels
01:05:50.940 rising because
01:05:51.780 of climate change?
01:05:53.640 Is it at all appropriate
01:05:55.460 to mention
01:05:56.880 all the other times
01:05:58.040 that's been predicted
01:05:58.940 and been completely wrong?
01:06:01.860 Is that not useful context
01:06:04.840 at all?
01:06:06.660 No?
01:06:07.200 No?
01:06:10.780 Who's owned by Israel?
01:06:12.040 Oh, let's see what...
01:06:19.040 Looks like you got
01:06:23.340 your own little
01:06:23.880 side conversation
01:06:25.080 going on there.
01:06:26.480 Anyway,
01:06:26.980 I'm not too worried
01:06:27.920 about sea levels
01:06:28.800 unless they rose.
01:06:29.840 I think we'd figure it out.
01:06:32.560 Probably figure it out.
01:06:33.580 And Nikki Haley
01:06:40.040 will get 13 inches
01:06:41.580 of sea level rise.
01:06:43.440 She'll fight
01:06:43.940 for every inch.
01:06:49.380 Yeah.
01:06:50.380 Well,
01:06:52.900 they finally figured out
01:06:54.040 how Egyptians
01:06:54.820 built the pyramids.
01:06:56.800 All right,
01:06:57.040 I got to read this.
01:06:57.920 Somebody on local
01:06:58.760 says,
01:06:59.120 oh,
01:07:01.600 there's a statue
01:07:02.480 from 1900 BC
01:07:04.140 depicting 172 men
01:07:05.980 moving a statue
01:07:06.680 with ropes
01:07:07.160 attached to a sled
01:07:08.100 and they put water
01:07:10.480 on the sand
01:07:11.300 that makes it
01:07:12.260 slipperier.
01:07:14.180 There's an
01:07:14.880 optimum stiffness.
01:07:19.120 All right,
01:07:19.480 so they think
01:07:20.340 they wet the sand
01:07:21.280 and dragged it
01:07:21.940 over the sand.
01:07:23.200 Maybe.
01:07:24.980 Maybe.
01:07:27.240 All right,
01:07:27.740 ladies and gentlemen,
01:07:28.420 that's all I've got
01:07:29.000 for you this fine Monday.
01:07:30.960 Let's go count
01:07:31.740 your bitcoins
01:07:32.320 and have a good day.
01:07:34.460 Thanks for joining
01:07:35.100 over on the
01:07:35.860 platforms of X
01:07:37.560 and Rumble
01:07:38.360 and the highly
01:07:39.760 racist YouTube.
01:07:41.760 Appreciate you coming.
01:07:42.760 See you tomorrow.
