down my sound on that device now we're perfect if you'd like to take this experience up the
00:00:05.520
levels that nobody can even understand all that you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass of
00:00:10.480
tank or chelsea stein a canteen jug or flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite
00:00:15.680
liquid i like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure that dopamine to the day
00:00:21.280
the thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now go
00:00:41.280
all right let's talk about all the things uh favorite story of the day new york post is reporting
00:00:48.160
there was an animal lover who was trying to care for a sick baby hedgehog and so she took the baby
00:00:56.000
hedgehog to the veterinarian and the veterinarian had to give her the bad news about the hedgehog
00:01:05.440
very bad news it turns out that the hedgehog was actually a hat it was a fuzzy hat pom-pom hat
00:01:12.880
oh no it was a pom-pom for a hat so it wasn't so much a baby hedgehog as it was a part of a hat
00:01:24.960
now i saw the picture of the uh the nice woman who was caring for the baby hedgehog that turned out to
00:01:31.440
be a pom-pom from a hat and i looked at her face
00:01:45.520
lover who turns out was actually loving a pom-pom from a hat i don't know how long she fed it and
00:01:52.560
cared for it but uh it's quite a story so i'm going to say biden supporter and my theme for today
00:02:00.320
is the stuff that people believe the things that people are think are true
00:02:08.960
no sometimes it's not a baby hedgehog it could look just like one it could act just like a sick
00:02:16.480
one that doesn't move around much but sometimes it's just a pom-pom from a hat
00:02:23.840
all right let's talk about joe biden you know thank goodness
00:02:27.360
we have a commander in chief and the president a leader of our country who whenever there's a big
00:02:34.240
disaster in the country he's just perfect isn't he like he just knows how to make us feel better
00:02:42.560
and to talk about our pain so here's an example of how joe biden calmed the fears of the community
00:02:51.920
showed his empathy he said that he had commuted over that collapsed bridge to baltimore many times by train
00:03:01.760
okay we don't know how he did that because there are no train lines that run over that bridge and
00:03:06.480
there never have been but somehow he managed to make it not only about himself
00:03:11.760
but about a version of himself that doesn't exist and never has i think that's a new record for bad
00:03:20.240
leadership well let me let me try to give you the ranking good leadership would be you show up right
00:03:28.480
away you show empathy and you talk about the victims that's a plus leadership you've seen trump do that a
00:03:36.240
number of times yeah including east uh palace palestine palestine and uh but the way biden does
00:03:45.440
it is he shows up and if he had just talked about himself you'd say hmm that's not as good
00:03:53.200
no i'd rather that empathy talking about the victims that's number one but number two talking about yourself
00:04:00.800
well at least he showed up at least he showed up but biden managed to find a new low ground
00:04:08.560
where not only do you not show the empathy that you need to and not and you don't even talk about
00:04:14.800
yourself you talk about an imaginary version of yourself that everybody knows didn't exist
00:04:24.000
so i don't know if that's better than not going there at all but it might be a tie
00:04:31.680
meanwhile uh elon musk says that the new version of grok is coming and it's going to be a banger
00:04:38.400
he's calling it super grok and if you're i don't know premium plus or whatever
00:04:45.680
user you can get super grok will super grok be the grok the be the ai of all ai i don't know but it
00:04:55.200
might be the most unfiltered one it might be the closest to at least attempting to be honest
00:05:03.920
we hear that the claude the new claude ai is beating chat gpt and the others so apparently
00:05:13.120
claude is the number one ai right now just in terms of capability um i'm thinking about subscribing to it
00:05:20.400
but i i don't know how many ais i want to subscribe to i don't know by the way what would happen
00:05:28.560
if one ai just subscribed to other ais so your personal ai just has a subscription and can answer
00:05:36.160
any question by querying the other ais that's what it's going to be right it'll probably be something
00:05:41.600
like that well uh chameth uh pala hapatia um one of the all-in podcast guys one of the most successful
00:05:52.400
silicon valley investor guys he said this and i want to see how many parents agree or disagree
00:05:58.720
uh he says as a parent as parent with uh teenagers so he's got some teenagers he said being the bad guy
00:06:05.680
by limiting their social media has been a path to exhaustion and constant bickering at least in my
00:06:11.920
home so having the government back me up and do the obvious and sensible thing that will give me as
00:06:16.560
a parent more reinforcement uh would be to you know ban social media under 16 because if something's
00:06:23.360
literally illegal it's way easier for a parent to say you can't do that it just makes it easy but if
00:06:31.280
it's legal and all your friends are doing it you really are gonna have to fight full time and do nothing
00:06:39.280
else but fight about that because a modern teenager in the modern world if you say they can't have their
00:06:47.520
social media after they've experienced it right it's too late after they've experienced it and they're hooked
00:06:54.080
they will know that they cannot have a normal social life they would know that their ability to to
00:07:00.320
deal with their peers the way everybody else is dealing with them would be gone i don't even think
00:07:05.680
they could date i think they wouldn't be able to date because it would look weird like i'm not going to
00:07:12.960
hang out with a weirdo who doesn't use social media it would make you a freak in your own school
00:07:18.880
so there's no right answer and i've had enough of uh an acquaintance with this topic in my personal
00:07:26.000
life that i don't think there is a way to take a phone away from a teenager now um
00:07:32.560
um i think somebody like a mike cernovich i'll use him just because he talks about his family
00:07:39.520
situation a lot in the very productive way now i think in this case if you've got um i think he's
00:07:46.240
doing homeschooling if you've got homeschooling and you start early and they don't have social media
00:07:54.800
and you you build some kind of a life that they think is their life that doesn't involve it you
00:08:00.240
know doing stuff with dad etc you could make that work probably you could probably make that work
00:08:06.400
but unless you go full cernovich i don't see any way to make it work so i agree with
00:08:16.080
chamath that the government banning social media for kids is just
00:08:20.880
smart obvious and it's the right thing for the government to do it's exactly what you want your
00:08:26.000
government to do to help you out instead of hinder you give me a hand give me some help that's what
00:08:32.960
you want i guess uh florida has already banned social media for kids under 14 do i have that right
00:08:41.280
kids under 14 are banned from social media in florida i don't know how that's going to work
00:08:48.160
but we'll see so just like i was in favor of testing drug legalization it didn't work
00:08:56.320
but good job testing it at least we found out what doesn't work i think there might be some
00:09:01.920
model where legalization could work if you changed a bunch of other things
00:09:07.360
right but if you don't change a bunch of other things and you just change that one thing i think
00:09:12.560
we could say that it doesn't work tried we tried it didn't work now we know we don't have to try
00:09:19.600
that again but if you tried something where you changed everything but also that one thing maybe
00:09:26.240
maybe somebody try that someday we got to keep trying stuff because what we're doing now isn't working
00:09:33.600
axio says there's a new study about educators in other words teachers mostly and
00:09:41.280
the study finds that half of all educators believe ai will not significantly affect their employment
00:09:56.160
the people that you've chosen to teach your children
00:10:00.000
don't believe that ai will significantly affect their employment opportunities
00:10:04.720
what do you even say about that did we did we intentionally find the dumbest people to become teachers
00:10:18.480
that the job that's most likely to disappear entirely is their job
00:10:25.920
am i wrong the most likely thing to disappear entirely is teachers
00:10:31.760
now to me it seems like the model of the future is
00:10:42.240
the the model that would work is obvious you get rid of bad teachers and you replace them with
00:10:47.680
good ai now the ai might look like people but you know it'll be on the screen it might be vr someday
00:10:58.320
that learns from all the teachers that there are
00:11:05.600
but let's say you could also change who the teacher is just by pushing a button
00:11:09.120
so let's say i think it will hold my attention better if the teacher is an attractive female
00:11:17.600
so i just choose that option because i think it will keep me sitting there looking at it longer
00:11:22.800
why not you know you might pick the uh the man with the deep voice
00:11:29.280
because you're sexist and you just think that sounds more authoritative so maybe you'd learn better in that case
00:11:35.200
maybe maybe if you're uh you know a member of some minority group you might say you know i just want
00:11:43.520
somebody who looks like me to teach me makes me feel more comfortable good you have the option
00:11:49.520
whatever works for you so the the fact that ai could be instantly modified for the specific person
00:11:56.800
and then let's say that you say to the ai you know what uh the way i learn best
00:12:02.240
best is when you put it in a story form or the way i learn best is when you put it into a practical
00:12:09.600
real world example or i need to hear it or i need to see it or i need to write it down
00:12:15.760
the ai could work with you to figure out what your learning process is and where you need a little extra
00:12:21.440
and whether whether what it needs to repeat it could look at your eyeballs
00:12:25.360
the ai teacher could be looking at your eyeballs as you you go because if you have a camera and it
00:12:33.280
could determine if it's working or not imagine the ai seeing that you're starting to zone out a little
00:12:39.360
bit and so it says oh i gotta i gotta change pace i gotta mix it up i gotta excite you i gotta give you a
00:12:45.680
little little shock your teacher can't do that because they're teaching to one person
00:12:51.040
or they're teaching to the whole class so they can't adjust for any one person
00:12:56.560
you know but a ai could they could adjust instantly to one person so i don't think there's any chance
00:13:02.400
that in the long run teachers will do what teachers have been doing now they might have great
00:13:08.400
opportunities but you know they might be the person running the ai or you know managing the process or
00:13:14.080
overseeing that the classes are right you know there might be something like that but it's not gonna look
00:13:18.320
the same that's for sure um over in new south wales they had a program to predict crime they were
00:13:27.120
going to use ai plus state surveillance stuff to figure out who is likely to be a criminal
00:13:34.160
so they could watch them extra a little extra now i have mixed feelings about this number one
00:13:44.240
could you build a technology with current technology that would accurately determine who is likely to
00:13:50.000
commit a crime what do you think do you think our current technology can identify people who are
00:13:55.520
likely to commit a crime of course it can of course it can do you know why because i could do that
00:14:04.320
i could just read your damn messages and i'll tell you if you're going to commit a crime
00:14:08.320
i'll bet i get it right 80 percent of the time you know ai could do a little better than that yeah
00:14:13.360
absolutely people totally broadcast their criminal intentions in their words and actions
00:14:20.240
very much so yeah you could it would be obvious to the ai but we can't really live in a world in which
00:14:27.600
every part of us is surveilled and every bad behavior is caught because the problem is that we're all bad
00:14:34.800
behavior people not you i mean you're the exception i mean and i'm the exception but amazingly only the
00:14:44.720
people watching this broadcast are the exceptions i don't know how that happened but everybody else
00:14:51.920
they're doing some sketchy stuff do you know who never got arrested before puff daddy
00:14:58.320
do you think the ai could have figured out what was going on there probably probably
00:15:09.440
i think so so i think the risk of ai and predictive crime is that it would have found you would find
00:15:15.200
out that most average people are criminals they're either cheating on their taxes or they're you know
00:15:22.320
doing a little something at work they're fudging their expense accounts they're they're doing something
00:15:28.960
yeah they're speeding who knows they're drinking and driving i don't know but yeah if we had a society
00:15:35.360
where every bad thing you did got caught every time we'd all be in a lot of trouble except for
00:15:43.120
like i say except for those of you who are watching this now and me luckily for us were the exceptions
00:15:52.080
well apparently the don lemon show is not the roaring success that don lemon had hoped
00:15:59.200
and that its audience has almost disappeared after three shows and maybe this is what we can learn from
00:16:07.120
that did you think that don lemon had a natural audience or do you think that people watched him
00:16:14.000
because he was on prime time on cnn and do you think that people watched his elon musk interview
00:16:20.160
because it was elon musk or because it was him what do you think well i would say that his recent
00:16:28.400
performance suggests that he did not have an audience that would follow him rather he had an experience
00:16:37.120
on a platform that brought a sizable audience to anybody who was at eight o'clock or whatever his
00:16:42.800
time zone was whatever his time was so it seems that through the process of trial and error
00:16:50.720
don lemon has determined that literally nobody wants to watch him
00:16:56.800
now i'm exaggerating a little bit right i think his show is bigger than mine
00:17:01.520
i think even his failed show is bigger than mine uh but he started from a higher base so it looks worse
00:17:09.360
i started from nothing and grew it up at least this part of my work he started from a higher base and
00:17:15.680
so it looks like failure but he's still doing better than i'm doing i mean if he did nothing but
00:17:21.280
continued his you know low-rated show he'd be killing me with with numbers probably
00:17:26.640
so we'll see anything could happen i i still wish him well um so we'll see
00:17:37.840
i don't really like to see anybody who's doing what i'm trying to do you know the the sort of a job
00:17:43.760
if you could call the job i'm not even sure if i call this a job have any of you noticed that i i
00:17:52.320
literally am doing this for my own entertainment i don't really have to work i don't really have to
00:17:58.560
get up at 4 30 to do this i don't have to but i actually love it it's a highlight of my day usually
00:18:06.320
like like right now in this very moment you know i'm hoping that you're enjoying something you're
00:18:11.760
watching but i'm having a better time than you are because i'm getting all the attention and i get to
00:18:17.760
say what i get to say and put things the way i want to want to it's a great great great experience
00:18:23.840
you know so i feel bad for anybody who feels like they're it's a job now the other thing that makes
00:18:30.480
this fun is that i do it live i wouldn't like this at all if i were recording it right now and then you
00:18:36.400
just got to see it an hour later no fun at all i wouldn't have any interest in that whatsoever it's it's
00:18:43.120
only the live direct experience that that gives me any any kind of joy but it gives me a lot so i do
00:18:52.480
appreciate all of you tremendously all right uh i'm loving the dunking on the democrats that's going on
00:19:01.120
with the uh ronna mcdaniel situation as you know nbc hired her from from her republican world as head of the
00:19:10.880
rnc and they like to sometimes the networks like to bring in a a voice that's opposite of their
00:19:19.360
normal voices to you know just so you can hear everything but uh glenn greenwald is uh dunking
00:19:26.240
on uh jen saki he says uh hilarious today uh jen saki said there's there's a difference between mbc hiring
00:19:34.800
um her jen saki right from the biden white house versus hiring ronna mcdonald ronna mcdaniel right from
00:19:43.280
the rnc and here's the difference according to saki that she doesn't lie like mcdaniel does
00:19:56.960
that's all she does is lie well what exactly is the lie that mcdaniel told does anybody
00:20:04.640
know of one i don't know of one the only thing that i think what they call a lie is her debunking
00:20:14.240
their hoaxes so i think that her debunking their hoaxes is what they call lies that they can't
00:20:22.880
they can't handle and watching uh glenn greenwald he's he's been dunking on them for like a couple
00:20:28.560
days uh he he just has the funniest in your face you hypocrite piece of crap posts you know but they
00:20:36.720
sound sort of professional and funny anyway how the the fact that jen saki can say that with a straight
00:20:45.920
face and her audience can go uh-huh uh-huh you know that's a good point because jen saki when she's uh
00:20:54.720
uh as uh greenwald points out the same jen saki spread the cia lied two weeks before the 2020
00:21:01.840
election you know the laptop lie searchlight pictures presents the roses only in theaters august 29th
00:21:10.400
from the director of meet the parents and the writer of poor things comes the roses starring academy
00:21:16.080
award winner olivia coleman academy award nominee benedict cumberbatch andy samberg kate mckinnon and
00:21:22.240
alice and janney a hilarious new comedy filled with drama excitement and a little bit of hatred
00:21:27.920
proving that marriage isn't always a bed of roses see the roses only in theaters august 29th get tickets
00:21:34.480
now yep that is funny but speaking of uh rana uh donald trump had some things to say
00:21:44.320
nobody makes politics as fun as trump does i i don't know why even his enemies haven't at least
00:21:55.040
appreciated the fun of it like even if you don't want him to be president i get that i get that we
00:22:01.840
all understand but you can't enjoy the good parts like the just pure the pure entertainment of it all
00:22:09.920
all right watch this show that trump puts on so this is uh he says talk about rana he says fired
00:22:15.520
after two days wow rana mcdaniel got fired by fake news nbc she only lasted two days and this after
00:22:22.560
mcdaniel went out of her way to say that that what they wanted to hear it leaves her in a very strange
00:22:28.320
place it's called never never land and it's not a place you want to be these radical left lunatics
00:22:37.440
are crazy crazy hmm that's interesting do you wonder if more people will be willing to say
00:22:47.280
that the real problem is mental illness because when i say it i don't get a lot of pushback
00:22:54.400
weirdly but he's saying crazy and the top people at nbc are weak they were broken and embarrassed
00:23:02.960
by low ratings highly overpaid quote talent bring back free and fair press make america great again
00:23:18.480
and it's pretty amazing he's just sort of enjoying this week i mean he's got other legal jeopardy of
00:23:25.040
course there's always going to be more but he's having a good week
00:23:29.920
so for me the takeaway of the whole nbc thing which by the way they did fire her after two days so she's
00:23:35.440
gone um is that the nbc management gave up the game and their own employees were so embarrassed
00:23:45.840
by it that they had to reverse it and what i mean by gave up the game is for what two and a half years
00:23:53.440
or something uh msnbc and nbc had been reporting that january 6 was an insurrection so how did management
00:24:04.720
justify hiring a known according to them insurrectionist to put on the show next to their fine
00:24:15.040
good people who would never tell you a lie how could they justify that there's only one way
00:24:23.200
nbc management knew that it was never true anything their hosts were saying about the news
00:24:31.200
am i wrong about that is there any other way to see it because there's a little bit of a mind reading
00:24:38.080
going on with this right but it's it's process of elimination what else could it be what else could
00:24:44.080
it be it has to be that the nbc management knew that their own product their news were lying to you
00:24:53.520
and telling you a hoax because if any of that were true there's no way they would hire the insurrectionist
00:25:00.560
to work on the network next to the people who had been calling them insurrectionists for years
00:25:05.520
couldn't possibly happen so but it did happen because the management was completely aware that it was
00:25:12.160
not true i assume now that's a little mind reading i grant you so if you're going to call me out on it
00:25:20.400
that would be the correct thing to do but i ask you what's the other way to look at it
00:25:27.440
how else can you explain that they would bring on somebody that their hosts had been calling the worst
00:25:33.920
criminals in the world insurrectionists who they believe should be in jail
00:25:41.280
how do you explain it you can only explain it by they didn't believe the insurrectionist
00:25:46.400
hoax story that was their main content for two and a half years there isn't another way to explain that
00:25:52.720
it's not just a difference of opinion it would be like they decided to put charles manson on to talk
00:25:58.320
about the other side of crime would they do that no because it's charles manson but they did it in the
00:26:06.960
case of you know rana their their own hoax is that it was real so i think that was an embarrassing admission
00:26:17.920
well trump's third act is going well i haven't i haven't caught up today give me an update how is
00:26:22.960
the djt trump stock trump's media stock because yesterday it was up 50 percent and at one point
00:26:30.640
his 58 percent stake was worth nine billion dollars how is it today is it up or down so far does anybody
00:26:40.160
know too soon to know or do we know we should know by now right somebody says up now how do you explain
00:26:51.200
that a media stock that is primarily truth social which is only half a million users has never made
00:26:58.160
money how do you explain that the market has valued it as at up to 15 billion dollars maybe
00:27:05.360
maybe even higher today how do you explain that well let me tell you how i explain it if you ask me
00:27:13.600
scott does this look like a good investment no no no it doesn't look like a good investment are you
00:27:23.520
kidding me now you ask me the second question scott are you going to buy any stock yes yes i am as soon
00:27:34.000
as i get off the show there's it's very likely that no matter what is happening with the price
00:27:39.680
i'll probably buy a thousand dollars because i don't want to have a lot because it's kind of risky
00:27:46.320
yeah but do i want trump to not be crushed by the the system yes i do do i think that it's a better way
00:27:56.960
to donate to his campaign to just buy an investment in something that might go away i mean it could go to
00:28:03.120
zero right anything could go to zero but it might go up it might go up i might be able to double my money
00:28:12.240
that was a campaign donation so in my world where i try to do things that make the world a little better
00:28:21.680
place um i'm going to disregard the normal risk reward analysis for this stock and i'm going to buy
00:28:29.840
it to just poke my finger in the eye of the people who are trying to break him because when they try
00:28:36.240
to break him they're trying to break you they already took a whack at me they took a whack at me
00:28:44.080
do you know why i'm still here because of you the reason i'm still here is that you collectively
00:28:52.480
gathered around and said no we're not going to let him be cancelled and many of you joined my
00:28:57.440
subscription service even didn't didn't want to didn't even think that was what you wanted and some
00:29:03.200
people just signed up to subscribe purely to support free speech more than supporting me supporting
00:29:10.560
the concept that you don't want to see people you agree with get crushed by the evil system so i'm
00:29:17.120
very much a beneficiary of the good judgment and let's say the the impulse to set things right
00:29:26.720
that exists out there you know that the good the good that's still in people the good in people that
00:29:32.400
will if they see you stuck on the road will pull over and help right now here's the thing again
00:29:39.760
that maybe the democrats didn't count on because they don't understand republicans
00:29:45.440
if your car is broke down on the side of the road the first truck that's going to stop is going to be
00:29:52.320
a republican now if you didn't know that welcome to the real world the reason that i'm protected
00:30:01.680
and i can still get to do this is because of you period it's not because of me it's entirely because
00:30:08.800
of you collectively decided i'm still in business and that's what apparently third of the country just
00:30:15.200
decided that donald trump will not be broke by the system that is the public deciding so if you think
00:30:26.160
this is about true social being a great investment i can't tell you it is but if you think it's about
00:30:33.360
americans trying to finally say this is too much this is too much you've pushed too hard biden and your
00:30:42.560
goons and we're just going to put up a uh a break wall so this like it's like a fire break
00:30:51.040
buying dj stock is an act of pure patriotism to act as a fire break against the democrats setting the
00:30:58.640
whole country on fire and it works it is a fire break it absolutely worked and it also warns them what's
00:31:09.600
coming you know what i mean it warns them what's coming because it's a signal of energy
00:31:20.880
and if i've taught you anything it's follow the energy not the arguments don't follow the arguments
00:31:26.880
don't follow the science the follow the energy now usually the energy is revealed in money
00:31:32.480
because money and energy go together so when you see how much energy was put into the djt stock
00:31:43.440
that's the story it's not even a dollar thing it's the energy that energy is unmistakable and growing
00:31:52.480
meanwhile um trump got hit with a gag order in new york over his uh stormy daniels quote hush money case
00:32:05.520
because he said some things in public slamming the judge
00:32:10.400
um thank you thank you for the gag order what do you think happens every time trump gets a new gag
00:32:19.360
order that tells him he can't say what he thinks is true in public
00:32:24.800
his numbers go up his fundraising goes up yeah that's what happens so yeah more gag orders please
00:32:33.680
every time you take away his freedom of speech you take ours away that's how i feel uh trump is just
00:32:40.400
sort of the canary in the coal mine whatever they do to him it is going to come back to you
00:32:45.600
all right it's going to get you now you saw it got me right it's the same energy that got me
00:32:52.960
and i'm you know way down in the below trump and the effectiveness category so yeah it will just keep
00:33:00.560
going down until they get everybody meanwhile trump is uh selling bibles
00:33:06.400
and axio says it's not for the campaign uh but he's selling trump bibles for 60 bucks
00:33:17.600
now if it's not going toward his campaign what is it going toward
00:33:21.520
the legal bills i assume so you can actually uh pay trump's legal bills and get yourself a nice bible too
00:33:30.800
how smart is that i don't think i've ever seen anybody read a room better than that guy
00:33:40.240
talk about how to read a room if you said to me scott uh donate some money to trump's legal fund
00:33:50.320
i'm not too happy about that right because i feel like
00:33:54.000
like uh you know everybody's got a legal fund they want me to contribute to but if you tell me that
00:34:03.120
he's selling a bible to his fans and followers who love bibles and you know you're always in the market
00:34:10.320
for a new one if bible is your thing it's sort of perfect it's exactly correct who's going to complain
00:34:19.600
about the bible i mean somebody will but it looks silly right lawyers yeah lawyers will i guess lawyers
00:34:27.760
will anyway it's another perfect reading of the room it's a perfect business model for paying off
00:34:33.680
his legal bills if that's what he's doing i assume so i like it well done meanwhile rfk juniors uh picked
00:34:42.240
his running mate um who is sergie brin's ex-wife nicole shanahan now she's an attorney and a tech
00:34:50.960
entrepreneur and um seems to have you know tons of uh qualifications etc she's in her 30s so she's young
00:35:01.440
and there's some rumors that i'm not i'm not going to share but i heard in the comments earlier
00:35:06.240
uh but uh that that didn't seem uh i guess not not credible enough that i want to share any of those
00:35:15.040
but let me say that the in general everything you hear about public figures is fake right so you're
00:35:22.800
going to hear a whole bunch of things about um about nicole shanahan some of it might be true in
00:35:31.760
terms of you know she was once married to sergie brin and now she's not that would be true
00:35:36.240
but i would look out for anything that's more interesting than that
00:35:44.080
probably not probably not true so the rule with public figures is that the stuff that's public
00:35:52.480
such as a marriage or divorce probably is true if somebody died probably true somebody got a new job
00:36:00.800
probably true but once you get past your own you know name salary and your name and social security
00:36:07.840
number everything about why anything happened that's all bullshit it's always the why of anything the
00:36:14.880
context never reliable so just remember that when you're evaluating her but i was looking at her
00:36:22.480
her background and apparently she um highlights that she has worked on racial equality wow
00:36:32.960
so that that's a uh that's a hard no for me in our current environment that's just a hard no
00:36:41.680
uh unfortunately i wanted i wanted to say yes i wanted to be pro whoever you picked but that unless
00:36:51.440
she comes out and says the way i was doing it was a mistake which would be fine by the way if she came
00:36:59.520
out and said you know what i worked on this equality thing but the more i think about it you know maybe we
00:37:04.880
should take a different approach if she said that i'd be fine with it because somebody in their 30s who
00:37:11.360
changes their mind about what works because they tried the other thing and it didn't work that would
00:37:16.000
be a strong signal very strong signal i like people who can change their minds and do it publicly and show
00:37:23.840
their work so if something like that happened it would be awesome but i'm a little bit worried about the
00:37:30.000
background and uh racial equality and the fact that she lists that um i don't know if that means dei in
00:37:38.800
any way or not but she is also big into regenerative agriculture because we have to fix our food supply
00:37:45.520
and rfk jr is right about that maybe the biggest issue in the world food supply and the quality of it
00:37:54.640
and children's and maternal health those are things she's interested in those are good
00:37:59.280
and uh she's worked on behalf of honest governance well good luck with that right so let's see in the
00:38:07.920
comments what's your opinion of his vp pick have you had any time to to do that are you worried that
00:38:17.520
she was once married to a founder of google and google's gemini ai tells you what google's all about
00:38:24.400
that they're sort of a racist cesspool yeah so google being a racist cesspool i don't think they can
00:38:35.440
correct themselves but you wonder if sergi was part of that and if you're married to that
00:38:42.240
you know are you part of that world did you come out of the racist cesspool world right into the vice
00:38:48.720
president role that would be a bad look so i very much want to support rfk jr at least on the policy
00:38:58.000
level you know even if he doesn't have a legitimate shot at the top job and by the way he does don't let
00:39:06.400
us sneak up on you rfk jr is not a long shot he's not a long shot like whatever you think is a long shot
00:39:18.000
he's not that no no he has an absolute walking path to the white house the walking path is that
00:39:26.320
biden falls apart there's not enough time to replace him and trump gets some bigger attack
00:39:32.160
or scandal that the public believes what are the odds that there's some new hoax about trump brewing
00:39:38.880
right now 100 what are the odds that a huge part of the country will believe the hoax at least initially
00:39:45.360
100 certainly all the democrats so you know a hoax is brewing you know that a big part of the
00:39:52.560
country is going to believe it because they always do they always fall for it again and you might see
00:39:59.040
the two main candidates so bruised by election day that anything could happen anything could happen
00:40:05.840
but i'm very uncomfortable with the uh vp choice so i would say it's a move backwards what would you
00:40:15.040
say i would say that my um sort of my casual support for rfk jr as not just a personality you know seemingly
00:40:26.800
a good person to have in in the fight but also policy wise or there was a lot to like not all of it
00:40:33.840
but a lot to like i think it's a step backwards but it might be a step forward for his base and it
00:40:40.960
might help him fund things and it might help him get on the ballot so it it could help his campaign
00:40:46.720
that part i don't know but my own opinion of the package goes down a little bit with the choice
00:40:55.120
so and by the way i'm sure she's very smart and very very good at what she does that's not really the
00:41:02.400
issue so at least he picked quality and he picked youth so i would say those are two pluses he picked
00:41:10.000
smart and he picked young i don't hate that and somebody who wasn't a creature of washington dc
00:41:18.880
i don't hate that so there's lots of like about it but there's that's just a huge red flag with this
00:41:26.640
racial equality background stuff now if you're if you're new to my show and you just uh you just
00:41:33.360
casually came in and you heard me mocking racial equality it's not because i don't want people to be
00:41:40.000
equal it's it's about the policies to get there the policies that get there are absurd and really are
00:41:48.240
just a way to humiliate black men basically because dei looks good on women because when women complain
00:41:57.520
and whine and then something gets fixed it feels like a natural situation when men complain about
00:42:04.720
the past as the reason that they're not successful they look pathetic
00:42:08.480
pathetic pathetic they look that way to other men and there's a reason you don't hear men complain as
00:42:17.360
much about being held back it's because it's a bad look it's pathetic the whole point of being a man
00:42:25.680
is that you're supposed to go through the wall you're not supposed to quit oh there's a little wall in
00:42:32.320
front of me no going through the wall is what makes you a man sorry if you stand there and whine just
00:42:40.720
join the women and you did if you're in the democrat party it's basically a woman's party so a female
00:42:48.560
strategy for success is complaining about what how unfairly you've been treated and it's a very good
00:42:55.520
strategy and we've seen it work and women certainly had a right to complain do we all agree about that
00:43:04.320
women definitely had a right to complain and so they did and so everybody said okay well not only do i
00:43:11.360
feel a certain way because women are unhappy because men are just primed to want to solve problems like
00:43:17.360
that but also it's valid you look at it and go okay you didn't even have the vote
00:43:22.160
yeah yeah i mean you you really couldn't there was a time in my lifetime where a woman really would
00:43:30.880
have a hard time getting a job that was a male-centric job but not anymore you know they're they're they're
00:43:38.000
in pretty good shape right now but if you're a uh a black man i think it's just embarrassing
00:43:45.520
for anybody to think that you got a leg up from the government to me that would be embarrassing
00:43:52.160
so i wouldn't want to be in that situation well let's talk about uh puff daddy we we still don't
00:43:59.040
know diddy yeah did he or did he not um there's an old video of uh puff daddy saying that white men
00:44:09.920
like trump need to be banished white men like trump hmm who would be a white man who is in his opinion
00:44:19.280
like trump would it be republicans would i be on that list would he say people like me should be
00:44:29.600
banished well i don't know but having heard that video um i'm going to change my um admonition
00:44:39.040
yesterday when i said no matter how guilty he looks in this situation you should reserve your judgment
00:44:45.600
until until because that would make him innocent until proven guilty and that is the standard which
00:44:50.640
we should hold to no matter how many rumors you hear let the court decide and until then
00:44:57.120
innocent until proven guilty no matter how bad this looks well i was wrong turns out he's a
00:45:03.040
fucking racist and uh i don't care if he gets burned so he can die in jail by with a broomstick
00:45:11.600
up his ass and i'd be happy about that i don't really need any more racists so let's get rid of him
00:45:19.440
mal-informed is what i call him um the story that i hear the most if you i'm reluctant to believe
00:45:30.800
uh all the sex claims you know their claims about underage people at his parties and there's claims about
00:45:39.040
raping and stuff but the one allegation that i've heard from several sources who seem to know him
00:45:44.560
personally is uh drugging the drinks of women at his parties and who was it who was describing that
00:45:54.000
the way they do it is they put the drug in the mixer and then the women drug themselves so so you
00:46:01.280
have the place where anybody can go up and pour themselves a drink and they make you know they make
00:46:07.120
women always make mixed drinks so women typically are not going to do vodka straight up they're
00:46:12.800
always going to add some juice to it so they put the drug in the juice that's that's the allegation
00:46:18.720
i can't prove that it happened but that would make them drug themselves so that it wouldn't be obvious
00:46:24.800
who drugged them like they wouldn't have any memory of somebody putting something in their drink
00:46:29.840
and they wouldn't have any memory of anybody giving them a drink
00:46:32.560
so the men would just drink without the juice you know which is typical straight up some or maybe add
00:46:40.720
their own diet coke or something and the women would just naturally add the juice and then bad things
00:46:46.640
would happen is the allegation i don't know if any of that's true i just know that on video he seems to be
00:46:59.360
well michael schirmer who is uh one of the most notable skeptics i think he leans i don't know if
00:47:09.440
he's an independent or leans a little democrat but don't judge him by that because there might be only a few
00:47:18.880
people who are not republicans who can actually look objectively as stuff and he's one of them so
00:47:25.840
he's a good follow so if you want to see somebody who may not be on the same team as you and i don't
00:47:31.120
know by the way i just think he's not trump he's not a trump supporter but i don't know if he's independent
00:47:37.360
or what um but he tells us today um and robert bartholomew has an article on this that uh that
00:47:46.880
havana syndrome that thing where they thought there was the secret mass the the secret sonic weapon
00:47:53.280
turns out there have been studies and they now know for sure it did not exist and that all of that was
00:47:59.840
a psychological event it was all a psychological event now you know i'm the first person to tell
00:48:08.960
you that right the day the story broke i said this isn't real this is a mass hysteria not only
00:48:17.120
is it a mass hysteria but it's a classic one it's an obvious one it's like it's right on the nose it's
00:48:23.600
so classic hysteria that i don't know how you could miss it well how you could miss it is to not
00:48:30.080
be familiar with mass hysteria if you've never seen one or never learned about one or never studied the
00:48:36.160
history of mass hysteria you don't know that they're not just common it's closer to being the operating
00:48:42.800
system of humanity we just do one mass hysteria after another there are several of them percolating
00:48:48.560
right now this isn't the only one it's just the most obvious one so let me tell you how i spotted it
00:48:56.000
so you can use these tricks for yourself in the future number one it's an extraordinary claim
00:49:03.200
it's a claim similar to uh i have a bat bigfoot is in my backyard or ufos abducted me it's in that class
00:49:15.120
so when you first hear it you say huh that would be an extraordinary claim
00:49:20.880
well extraordinary claims are going to be wrong 99 of the time so your starting point should be 99 likely
00:49:28.240
not true if you started with it's probably true because it's in the news and it's probably true
00:49:36.800
because the intelligence people say it's true that's probably true because the cia says it's true
00:49:42.320
it's probably true because all of the networks are reporting it if you started from that perspective
00:49:50.320
you've learned nothing none of those are good sources none of them are credible even a little bit
00:49:58.800
not even directionally you're not even not even directionally they are not useful for this sort of
00:50:05.200
thing so you should have said on the surface of it 99 likely fake leave open a little chance 100 would
00:50:13.760
be stupid now 100 would be wrong because you know we could be surprised you've been surprised before
00:50:21.520
but start with 99 fake don't believe anything the fake news tells you because they're not part of
00:50:27.120
the information structure they're part of the disinformation system let me say it again the point
00:50:35.280
of the news is to keep you uninformed that's not hyperbole that's not politics that is an actual
00:50:45.280
accurate description of what the news is intended to do it is intended to mislead you for the benefit of
00:50:54.000
the country or for the benefit of rich people or for somebody's benefit usually somebody thinks it's
00:50:59.520
good for something but no the news it is not its purpose to tell you what's true it's to frame the
00:51:06.800
stories in ways that are good for the people in power and that's it so so number one extraordinary
00:51:13.680
stories are almost always false number two it fit the classic form of a mass hysteria
00:51:19.120
it was a whole bunch of people who said oh you got hurt by a sonic weapon i think i'm hurt by a sonic
00:51:27.280
weapon and then the third person hears it goes you know i didn't get to sleep last night i wonder if
00:51:34.240
it's that sonic weapon and then somebody else says my sinuses have been acting up all week
00:51:40.800
it's probably that sonic weapon and then the next thing you know the sonic weapons being used
00:51:46.320
at other embassies in other parts of the world okay this is the classic most obvious perfect form
00:51:56.960
of a mass hysteria and now you say to yourself but scott
00:52:03.040
there were early reports of people with actual brain damage and it showed up in the scans
00:52:08.240
and the physical damage was unquestionable and it was you know lots of doctors in different places
00:52:14.880
we're all getting the same answers yes something happened they're damaged and what did i say nope nope
00:52:23.280
none of that's true and then you could have said in your mind scott um this is a whole bunch of doctors
00:52:32.720
doctors operating independently on all kinds of different people in different parts of the world
00:52:40.800
and you're telling me that all of those doctors who have nothing to gain by being wrong that they
00:52:47.760
all just fell for this mass hysteria is that what you're trying to get me to believe scott yes
00:52:54.480
because that is what exactly what a mass hysteria is it's exactly that it's people who should know better
00:53:01.920
falling for it that's what it is so the fact that all the doctors were falling for it
00:53:07.040
let me think um do you have any recent experience in which all the doctors seem to be wrong
00:53:14.640
hmm yes all the fucking time it's the most common thing in the world for all the doctors to be wrong
00:53:23.040
very ordinary you know it's not ordinary a secret sonic weapon used by bigfoot
00:53:29.680
that's not ordinary but all the doctors being wrong i hate to tell you that's ordinary it's very ordinary
00:53:37.680
yeah go get some statins if you don't believe me
00:53:42.080
anyway um and then the the final tell uh the intelligence people blamed russia
00:53:50.640
is there anything else i needed to say if if you add that it looks exactly like a mass hysteria
00:53:56.560
it's an absurd ridiculous extraordinary claim on its face and then the intelligence people blame russia
00:54:03.440
people people the next time this happens you can do this on your own right have you learned extraordinary
00:54:18.720
fits the mass hysteria perfectly and the cia blames russia and that's that's the triple header right there
00:54:29.520
well are there any mass hysteria that are brewing right now
00:54:36.320
is there any mass hysteria right now that is obviously fitting the pattern
00:54:41.280
the pattern let's see the pattern would be lots of capable experts think it's happening
00:54:50.640
they've got lots of specific examples of it happening
00:54:53.520
it's an extraordinary claim like what are you kidding me that i don't believe that that's incredible
00:55:04.960
it's called the january 6 insurrection hoax it just got ronna mcdaniel fired you don't think it's
00:55:15.600
still active and and changing things in our world it is it's changing things in our world and it's a mass
00:55:22.000
hysteria now this mass hysteria was um initiated by the news so the news you know very intentionally
00:55:30.480
caused this mass hysteria but i would say at least i don't know a third of the country
00:55:37.040
was told that an insurrection had happened and that trump wants to stay in power forever
00:55:45.360
and that he was planning an insurrection and that's exactly what he planned well jeff clark
00:55:52.960
jeffrey clark he's a former justice department official who worked with the trump in the around
00:56:06.720
i'm allergic to the news anyway jeffrey clark's uh being investigated now and he's some of the things
00:56:16.080
we learned from one of his co-workers is that you know there was this attempt to try to organize these
00:56:23.120
alternative uh alternative uh alternative electors so that was true they did try to get them their
00:56:30.640
take on it was they were they were a placeholder to keep their rights active so that it would be
00:56:37.040
obvious there's a dispute that the dispute could be worked out the way we work out in all disputes
00:56:42.880
usually in congress or or in the courts but it wasn't meant to be nefarious and it wasn't meant to be
00:56:49.600
illegal and it wasn't meant to be overthrowing the country but what we learned today is from somebody
00:56:57.840
who worked with clark who's in a lot of trouble by the way if if things don't go his way what we
00:57:03.440
learned is that his co-worker believed that clark was um serious and truly believed that the election had
00:57:12.080
been stolen and that his work was trying to correct what looked like an insurrection a stolen election
00:57:21.520
so he was an anti-insurrectionist by intention but because the mass hysteria fake news people can paint
00:57:31.120
that same set of actions as being somebody trying to take over the country and keep trump in in power
00:57:39.120
they got to sell that narrative but now we know what he was thinking based on the fact that people
00:57:45.360
were with him and working at the time that his all of his everything he did suggested that he genuinely
00:57:52.320
believed there was this great injustice and he was trying to figure out how to fix it now what does that
00:57:57.920
do to the narrative of january 6 the entire narrative is that it was planned and that people knew the
00:58:05.680
election was fake i'm sorry the allegation is that they knew the election was fair which is stupid
00:58:12.960
nobody could have known that even whether it was fair or not you couldn't know it it was it wasn't
00:58:17.760
knowable but the news told us you could know the unknowable and so their idiots believed them
00:58:25.200
so now we know for sure that a main character and indeed and indeed there has not been one set of
00:58:32.480
evidence that anybody who is trying to reverse the january 6 results not a single person has any
00:58:40.960
evidence there's no evidence that's been presented that any of them believed that they were doing
00:58:47.760
something wrong as opposed to trying to correct a wrong every bit of evidence from every testimony from
00:58:56.640
every person supports the narrative that trump thought the election was truly rigged and thought
00:59:03.600
they were avoiding an insurrection not causing one has your news told you that did your news tell you
00:59:12.000
that we know for sure that the january 6 main theme that trump knew it was a fair election and was trying
00:59:18.800
to overthrow it anyway the main theme has been completely debunked by a complete lack of
00:59:24.560
any evidence that should be the biggest story because now we know that all of the prosecutions
00:59:31.840
were illegitimate we know that once you know that people's intentions were to correct a wrong not to
00:59:40.640
create a wrong but to correct a wrong and that's definitely in evidence now widespread in evidence
00:59:47.600
the whole narrative is gone the whole narrative is gone and yet the news treats it like none of that
00:59:52.880
happened and the the whole tentpole that was holding up the hoax is completely gone not a single
01:00:00.880
bit of evidence nothing in writing nothing nothing even people speculating about what somebody else was
01:00:07.840
thinking no evidence at all that it was anything except what it looked like somebody trying to correct
01:00:14.800
wrong in his mind all right we'll talk about that baltimore bridge uh how many of you think it was a
01:00:21.840
terrorist act that something got hacked and maybe putin was getting revenge it was all kind of perfect
01:00:30.400
because it was the francis scott key bridge so that was you know gets to the real patriotism and it was a
01:00:38.800
critical bridge because apparently it's going to have a massive impact on the supply chain i think
01:00:44.880
we'll adjust but it could affect prices and timing and stuff
01:00:50.880
i'm going to say not likely it was a terrorist attack and the reason i'm going to say not likely
01:00:58.640
is that terrorists like you to know it was intentional that's sort of the whole point of terrorism
01:01:05.520
because people don't get the same amount of fear for a natural accident they just say well stuff
01:01:11.840
happens um personally i would say that you know my suspicions were raised but as of today even the fbi
01:01:21.760
says no it wasn't a terrorist act can you give me a fact check on that i believe the fbi has ruled out
01:01:28.640
terrorist attack is that true which would suggest they've talked to the captain and the crew
01:01:35.680
and they have a better idea that it may maybe it was some ordinary mistake or mechanical problem
01:01:42.000
i think it was just bad timing yeah you're saying that the fbi lies well that's true but would they
01:01:49.680
lie about this they might they might yeah the the fbi is no longer credible on any political stuff
01:01:58.640
all right uh would putin do this though on some level it would be a perfect response
01:02:08.160
because if if the cia was behind hiring these um these terrorists that went into moscow
01:02:16.400
and some people say they were i don't know if if that's true and they didn't leave any trace
01:02:22.640
but yet putin was sure it was true would he do a similar attack in which you couldn't tell if it was
01:02:29.280
real or not you you couldn't tell who did it it would be kind of perfect yeah there there is a little
01:02:37.760
of a perfect payback symmetry to it but i'm still thinking coincidence because you can read into these
01:02:44.960
situations anything you want well more climate catastrophe it turns out the abc news is worried
01:02:58.000
that rising global temperatures could change where the majority of the world's wine is produced
01:03:04.480
so france for example might be less of a good wine growing place but maybe some other places would get
01:03:11.440
better so let me uh put this in context um the climate alarm went from i think your cities will be
01:03:23.360
underwater in 12 years to i don't want no swedish wine i i feel like they're slowly backing out
01:03:33.840
it wasn't long ago everything was going to crash down on you the water level would rise it would be
01:03:41.920
super hurricanes and you would fry in your sleep but now i'm a little worried that i won't be able to
01:03:49.600
call anything champagne because nothing will be grown in the champagne region what if i have to drink wine
01:03:57.600
they came from mongolia instead because it's so warm there i feel like the cats on the roof
01:04:08.160
that's what it feels like it feels like the cats on the roof and the predictions are not coming true
01:04:15.040
at a level that would support the narrative so maybe they need to back off the narrative too well
01:04:21.200
well when i said super hurricanes i meant your chardonnay might taste different see see what i mean
01:04:30.240
it's going from really bad to i don't know you might have less access to poison
01:04:37.680
just think about it alcohol is poison and one of the big problems of global temperature rise if it's
01:04:44.880
happening is that uh you might have to get your poison from a different source
01:04:52.080
that's your biggest problem right there well i don't know if i have to poison myself by putting
01:04:57.680
a little extra work into it that's no good anyway mike ben's talking about the whole of government
01:05:04.480
censorship effort so did you know that the department of homeland security censorship agency cisa cisa
01:05:12.320
did you know mike ben's reports that they put a washington post reporter on its taxpayer-funded
01:05:20.400
domestic disinformation conference in 2020 where they formulated social media censorship strategies
01:05:27.600
for the 2020 election just hold that in your mind that the government created very expensive
01:05:38.560
well-funded well-funded gigantic entities if you count the entire web of connected people
01:05:46.320
for the specific purpose of censoring 2020 information and one of the participants was the washington post
01:06:00.400
so that's what you call as mike ben says a whole of government censorship effort yeah there were a lot of
01:06:07.280
people in on that so do you still think that the washington post canceled me because of what i said
01:06:15.520
does anybody think that i was canceled because of what i said
01:06:19.920
or is it a coincidence that the washington post led the cancellation and we know the washington post is
01:06:25.600
an intelligence agency that works closely with the democrats and listening to me talk in public has got
01:06:31.440
to hurt them a little bit big coincidence not a single republican complained about anything i said
01:06:37.840
i mean they were uncomfortable with it but once they heard the whole explanation they're like oh okay free
01:06:41.840
speech yeah no everything's political everything's political all right
01:06:52.080
i would like to say that not knowing how anything works is not a political opinion but
01:06:56.080
we keep treating it like it is we keep acting like there's a difference of political opinion on big
01:07:01.520
topics it's not really that it's really stupid people who don't know how anything works trying to
01:07:09.760
debate people who do know how things work and then we imagine that has something to do with politics
01:07:15.760
that's not politics that's just some people know how to analyze things and some don't
01:07:20.960
that's all that is let me give you some examples um democrats don't know how free speech works
01:07:29.600
that being the prior story if you're if you have a strike force that the government put together
01:07:36.080
to censor speech then you don't understand that censoring speech is the end of everything
01:07:42.560
or maybe you do and you want everything then so it's like people don't understand how do you not
01:07:47.200
understand that free speech means you don't censor people you disagree with but they seem to think
01:07:53.440
free speech allows you to censor people you disagree with which is the opposite it's literally the
01:07:59.680
opposite now how do you have a how do you have a political conversation with somebody who thinks
01:08:06.320
that's free speech that censoring is free speech you can't that's that's a smart person arguing with a
01:08:14.160
dumb person if you don't know how anything works you would think that limiting free speech could work
01:08:20.640
out for you well if you do know how anything works you don't want to do that how about open borders
01:08:28.880
if you know how anything works you'd be against it but if you don't know how anything works in the
01:08:35.120
real world you'd be for it you'd be for it how about reparations how about dei
01:08:42.320
yeah if you understood incentives and what it would do to the people who are not benefiting from
01:08:47.440
the dei and what kind of a obscenity it becomes when people try to hit those targets but they don't have
01:08:53.520
enough supply of people to hire it breaks everything who knew that well people who understand how the real
01:09:03.040
world works know that this is a disaster if you don't know how the real world works you think it's a
01:09:09.200
way to get equity how about uh new york mayor adams is talking about giving debit cards and free money to
01:09:18.640
migrants prepaid debit cards what what do you think will happen if you start paying people to come here
01:09:26.560
illegally huh would there be more of it or less of it if you reward it i don't know i can't figure it out
01:09:38.960
ever since i registered to be a democrat i can't figure these things out well you see my point
01:09:46.400
arguing about free speech open borders dei reparations and benefits to immigrants those are not
01:09:52.960
really differences of opinion those are differences of intelligence period those are just differences
01:10:01.920
in ability to understand your world nothing else now a lot of it is experience when we talk about the
01:10:09.360
old saw that says if you're young and you're not a liberal you don't have a heart but if you're older
01:10:16.720
and you're not a conservative you don't have a brain you've heard that one right it's an old one
01:10:21.680
but the mechanism for that makes sense the less experience you have of how the real world works
01:10:29.600
the more likely you'll be seduced into something that sounds like it's going to give you fairness
01:10:35.920
but as soon as you have more experience and you see how things actually work as soon as you hear
01:10:40.480
about dei you say oh that could never work because it will just cause people to hire less qualified
01:10:46.640
people to meet their targets and the the dei proponents can't seem to understand that it's
01:10:52.880
a supply problem and not a demand problem and that if they did away with dei tomorrow the demand for
01:11:00.240
diverse employees would be the same nothing would change because the companies independently want to
01:11:06.320
have more diversity it's good for them you know it's a good look as long as they don't have to trade
01:11:13.360
off any competence but as soon as you turn it into dei they do have to trade off competence
01:11:20.240
because they're going to try to hit those dei goals if you don't understand that you really
01:11:25.360
shouldn't be in the conversation right it's sort of basic let's see that the german government is doing
01:11:32.720
well um and wokeness printed some german government data on the percentage of all crimes committed by
01:11:40.480
foreign born populations in frankfurt so in frankfurt the foreign born population uh were a hundred
01:11:47.840
percent of serious sexual assaults i don't know what makes it serious is that group maybe gang gang
01:11:54.880
assault probably uh pickpocket incidents 93 is foreign born human trafficking 83 day home burglars 80
01:12:03.280
percent aggravated theft 76 percent illegal smuggling 70 theft 66 crime against life 60 child abuse 53
01:12:14.000
percent arson 52 percent assault 52 percent that's just the immigrant population now
01:12:24.960
should you stop immigration because of these numbers
01:12:27.920
what would somebody who understands how the real world works what would be their response to seeing
01:12:36.880
these numbers in the real world you don't let more people in that will be in this category right in
01:12:46.000
the weird imaginary equity world that the democrats live in you increase the number who come in
01:12:51.840
it doesn't make any sense now in my world and i think elon musk and a lot of other people would agree
01:13:00.560
that you we do need more bodies we can't at the moment we can't succeed without pretty strong
01:13:10.000
immigration bigger numbers than you used to and way bigger numbers than you can be um comfortable with
01:13:17.760
but we need to vet them they need to come through a system where we're weeding out the the serial criminals
01:13:24.480
it's just basic just basic stuff but no we won't do that
01:13:31.840
and meanwhile president joe biden he's thinking about granting amnesty
01:13:38.240
to people been here a while and he's coming up with other ideas to incentivize more illegal migration
01:13:47.440
does he know he's doing that who knows can't read his mind but i can tell you that anybody who
01:13:52.880
understands anything about anything says you shouldn't incentivize criminals to come to your country
01:13:59.040
now i'm not saying all immigrants are criminals obviously that would be ridiculous but too many
01:14:06.080
criminals is a problem all right uh there's a real housewife of beverly hills anna marie
01:14:14.400
wiley who allegedly colin rug is reporting this allegedly lost her job as a real housewife
01:14:21.680
because she was a trump supporter and she liked candace owens and she posed with her husband i guess
01:14:28.240
who's an athlete transgender athletes didn't oppose transgender didn't oppose transgender just the
01:14:35.680
athlete part you know competing against uh women on women's teams all right
01:14:45.280
so now what's interesting about this is that they're a black couple
01:14:49.040
so it's a black woman who got kicked off a show allegedly for being pro-trump
01:14:58.640
now it's certainly believable but remember what i told you all news about public figures is fake
01:15:04.480
probably not an exception so it might be true in the details that she is uh she was let go from the
01:15:13.040
show it might be true that she's a trump supporter and it might be true that that was a contributing
01:15:20.480
factor but what we don't know was there anything else because there's a good chance if you listen to
01:15:28.800
the story there's somebody involved would have a different version of that story now that should
01:15:34.720
be your primary first thing you think whenever there's a public uh person in the news first thing
01:15:42.000
you should think is news about public figures not very often right all right that ladies and gentlemen
01:15:51.200
brings me to the conclusion of my prepared remarks did i miss any stories so anything happening that i
01:15:57.280
missed you know i find that i look almost exclusively on social media for the news now
01:16:06.480
um she could have been a pain in the neck and they needed a reason well pain in the neck probably
01:16:13.360
wouldn't be a good enough reason uh as long as she got ratings so it could easily be that the ratings
01:16:21.360
or that she wasn't a popular member of the show could be but i suspect yeah you would think
01:16:27.120
that a show like that would benefit from having a pro-trump person in it because that would be a source of
01:16:34.240
stories and conflict so to imagine that they thought they would lose money by having a source of conflict
01:16:42.560
on a reality tv show stretches the imagination it is easy to believe that they just weren't comfortable
01:16:51.600
having a trump supporter on their show and that's all that mattered so it is a believable story
01:16:58.880
but i don't automatically think you have the right context whenever public figure is involved
01:17:07.840
uh do i think the guy in the ship was drunk no um
01:17:11.920
um i'm guessing that the ship captain probably did as much as he could because we know the lights blinked
01:17:22.240
so we we doubt that the ship captain was directly responsible for the lights going out so that that
01:17:29.200
would say that whether he was drunk or not whatever the problem was wasn't that
01:17:33.200
uh they woke him up but that too is not that doesn't tell you anything so the captain has to sleep
01:17:43.440
that's why you have other people who can pilot a ship i don't think the captain always has to be awake
01:17:54.160
so you know there there's going to be a lot of conspiracy theories about it
01:17:57.840
uh i'm gonna say i lean toward um it was just a human problem with some mechanical problems thrown on top
01:18:07.200
yeah yeah once the ship loses propulsion there's not a whole lot you can do you're not going to be steering
01:18:14.800
it but the fact that it did what it did here's how you should deal with coincidence
01:18:21.840
today a truck um ran into a telephone pole and the damage was quickly fixed was that in the news
01:18:33.680
no no because it was an ordinary accident got fixed today a boat sank in the harbor big news
01:18:42.240
no because you know little boats sink it's a thing today a plane crashed but luckily the uh the
01:18:51.280
pilot was so good that he made a good emergency landing and survived walked away so what you're seeing is a
01:19:00.320
survivor bias sort of situation so you have accidents happening all over the world every day
01:19:08.880
every now and then one is going to have a coincidence involved somebody's going to hit the base of a bridge
01:19:15.280
so your your problem in analyzing this is that you don't see all of the accidents that didn't cause a
01:19:24.880
bigger problem and so in a context where there's just accidents everywhere all the time every day
01:19:32.480
some of them are going to hit the base of a bridge you see what i'm saying some of them
01:19:38.480
are just going to be worse than the others and then we're going to think it was a terrorist attack
01:19:41.760
it seems it seems the boat turned well everything about the action of the boat appears to be
01:19:59.200
um because the things that we don't know about are at some point they dropped anchor
01:20:04.560
right so i think the boat was sort of going in a direction and then in desperation they dropped anchor
01:20:12.240
and then the anchor would cause you know them to to pivot off the the anchor basically so we don't know
