Summary
A new kind of robot that can read your mind and smile back at you. And a mail person who throws the mail away. Plus, Home Depot is selling you a whole house for $44,000, and it's not even remotely close to as good as it used to be.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
Morning. All you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass of tanker chalice just diet,
00:00:04.820
a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:10.760
I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day,
00:00:15.400
the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens
00:00:19.460
now. Go. So good. So, so good. All right. I'm going to make sure I can see your comments
00:00:35.600
here. Looking good. No, I'm wrong. Technical problem, which I will fix right now.
00:00:49.460
What an adventure. Oh, my goodness. This won't be easy one, though. Fixed.
00:01:00.040
Well, we got all kinds of news today. It's amazing. Did you know that Home Depot will sell you a whole
00:01:07.340
house, 540 square feet prefab for $44,000? So now you can buy a whole house from Home Depot,
00:01:17.700
a whole house from Amazon. Okay. Just checking for this. Do we have a sound? Can anybody hear me?
00:01:36.460
It's not entirely clear that I'm actually live. Anybody? Any sound at all? Is there any kind of a show
00:01:51.460
happening? I can't tell. Yeah. Okay. It looks like we have sound. All right. Well, let's just keep on
00:02:00.400
going here. Just like there's no problem at all. There's new AI that can take your script and turn
00:02:08.220
it into a full movie just from the script. How cool is that? You can just take your movie script,
00:02:16.040
it just becomes a movie. Now, I have certainly a lot of questions whether that really does that.
00:02:23.580
I'm going to predict it's really demo-ware. You know, something that looks like it could work and
00:02:30.520
you wish it would work, but doesn't quite work like everything else in AI. It almost does something.
00:02:39.020
Well, I think that's what's going to happen. But what's different is that the pitch for funding at
00:02:44.920
the Y Combinator Demo Day was done with using AI. So the founder pitched it using an AI version of
00:02:54.040
herself or one of the founders, I think. That's kind of cool. Can robots read your mind?
00:03:00.340
Well, there's one called Emo now. And it'll smile back at you if you smile. And it might change
00:03:09.820
really how you interact with machines. Imagine a robot that knew the correct context to smile back.
00:03:19.440
I mean, just to hold that in your mind, that you smile at your robot and it smiles back.
00:03:25.260
That's a game changer. That's the point where you lose the ability to know it's not real or that it's
00:03:33.840
not conscious. When your robot starts smiling at you, there's almost nothing you'll be able to do
00:03:40.800
to think that it's not conscious. I don't think it will be, but boy, is it going to seem conscious
00:03:47.120
when it smiles at you. But apparently this one, the one that smiles, can also read your face and try to
00:03:54.780
get an idea what your attitude is. So now they have AI that'll listen to your words for your emotional
00:04:01.480
state. But this one will look at your face and your body language. So yes, the robots are getting
00:04:08.320
into our emotional space and that's going to be a problem. You may have seen this story. It's not
00:04:14.580
too new, but there's a New Jersey postal worker who had been just throwing away the mail, which by the
00:04:21.860
way, is not that uncommon. Sometimes it's just easier to go home and throw the mail away than it is to
00:04:28.040
deliver it all over town. That's a lot of work. So sometimes you'll hear the story about a mail
00:04:33.720
person who just would take the mail home and dump it in his living room or something. Well,
00:04:40.480
but this one has an extra element to it. There were 99 election ballots in this 2,000 pieces of mail.
00:04:48.340
Now there's no indication that the mail person had any political motive or that throwing the mail
00:04:53.820
away had anything to do with ballots. Well, here's my question. How did they detect that he threw the mail
00:05:03.960
away? Was it because somebody knew about their ballot missing? Is that what happened?
00:05:13.720
Let's see. Let me see if I can figure out how to go private on this.
00:05:24.680
Because I'm still getting people, getting trolls telling me there's no sound.
00:05:30.600
And I don't think that they're real people. I think they're trolls.
00:05:34.100
They're trolls, right? Sound is fine. Yeah, I'm not going to ask again.
0.93
00:05:38.400
All right. So the question is, does our election system detect if a mail person throws the mail away?
00:05:49.920
How in the world did they know that any mail was missing in the first place? Now, I didn't see that
00:05:56.740
in the story. But here's where I would sound the alarm. Here's what I expected to see in the story.
00:06:03.580
There were 99 ballots that were thrown away. And 10 of those 99 people complained because they knew their ballot
00:06:12.460
didn't reach its destination. So when they tracked it down, they could easily figure out which postal person
00:06:18.600
it was because of where the ballot drop box was. Do you think that happened? Do you think that the election
00:06:27.140
process picked up the ballots were thrown away? Because if it didn't pick it up, then what we did is we
00:06:37.880
outsourced our election security to the post office. The post office. Because I can't think of a more
00:06:48.040
secure environment than the post office. But it looks like that's what we did.
00:06:54.320
Well, vigilantism is breaking out right on schedule. There are three stories in the news
00:07:02.340
just today of people taking matters into their own hands. Surprise. Surprise. People feel there's no
00:07:11.200
law. And so men, men are starting to take the law into their own hands. One example is Walter Isaacson,
00:07:20.460
who used to be the CEO of CNN, I guess. And he was at some event and some non-binary protester was
0.93
00:07:29.420
disturbing. So Walter Isaacson, who's 72 years old, decided to personally escort that person out,
00:07:37.860
which allegedly turned into some shoving. But he was removed. So Walter Isaacson just dragged some
00:07:45.720
bastard out of the room and shoved him out of the room. Now he's in trouble. You know, obviously the
0.99
00:07:51.400
protester is going to file charges for assault. But, you know, it's like some scratches on his arm or
00:07:57.660
something. There's a New York City man who was in the news today for catching a porch pirate. His stuff
00:08:05.720
kept getting stolen. So he put a fake package out there and waited for the porch pirate and then went out
00:08:11.780
with his baseball bat and called the authorities and got him arrested. So Walter Isaacson getting
00:08:20.660
physical with a protester, a New York City man setting his own trap and using physical force,
00:08:27.300
violence. Then there's a story of an Arizona state attorney was grilling a woman because her husband
00:08:37.860
had fired at what was supposed to be a warning shot because there were a bunch of migrants illegally
1.00
00:08:49.140
So he sends out the, sends out the, he does a warning shot and apparently with the warning shot,
00:08:57.800
he has somebody. So now there's some legal difficulty. Now, I don't know if it was really a warning shot.
00:09:04.320
Makes you wonder if it was really a warning shot. But there's three examples in the news just today
00:09:10.240
of men deciding they had enough. Do you think it's a trend? Do you think you will see more stories of
00:09:18.080
men deciding they've had enough? Yes, you will. Yes, you will. There's no way this is going to stop.
00:09:25.640
There's going to be a whole bunch more men just figuring it out on their own because what choice do
00:09:30.400
you have? What choice? You don't have a choice. It's either let it happen or fix it. And you're
00:09:38.800
going to go to jail if you try to fix it. Well, Apple, you know, Apple was going to try to do a car,
00:09:44.320
but then they gave up on the car. And now there's talk in Bloomberg that they're going to make a robot,
00:09:52.800
personal robot. Doesn't that make more sense? Don't you think Apple should make a personal robot
00:09:59.640
and not so much a car? I think getting into the car business would probably have been a mistake.
00:10:07.540
So they probably made the right choice to get out of it. But an Apple robot that's working with your
00:10:14.280
other Apple devices. Absolutely. I want an Apple robot just to be my remote control.
00:10:22.260
I just want to tell my robot what to turn on and off. It's like, hey, robot, can you turn on Netflix
00:10:27.280
to find something for me? However, I caution you that this report is in Bloomberg and Bloomberg is not
00:10:35.700
a credible source of news. How do I know that? Well, I know that because Bloomberg wants to the story
00:10:42.880
about me. So I can say authoritatively that it's not a real source of news. Now, the rest of you have
00:10:51.180
to guess, but I've been there. Yeah, I know they make shit up. At least they did about me. So I wouldn't
1.00
00:10:57.240
trust anything else they say, but it might be true. Well, we've got the cicada again coming. It's like
00:11:05.000
Armageddon with cicadas. What's the other name for a cicada? Is it like a locust? Is a cicada like
00:11:12.540
locust? Or is that like a completely different bug? Does anybody know? Cicada? I don't know. I just
00:11:19.560
don't like them. But apparently, every 17 years, they emerge. And I guess there's two types.
00:11:26.800
And by coincidence, their very long gestation period or hibernation or whatever the hell they do,
00:11:32.920
they lined up. So we're going to have two cicada invasions at the same time. How many cicadas are we
00:11:42.840
talking about? Trillions. Trillions. I remember when nothing was trillions. Do you remember that?
00:11:52.860
When nothing was trillions. Yeah. There was no trillionaires. We didn't have a trillion dollar
00:11:59.780
budget deficit. Now everything's a trillion. Like even the bugs are a trillion now? Come on.
00:12:07.720
How many people died in Gaza? A trillion. Everything's a trillion. Not really a trillion.
00:12:14.800
I made that part up in case you didn't know. Didn't come from Bloomberg News.
00:12:18.080
Well, Just the News, that's a news entity called Just the News,
00:12:24.760
reports there's a structural racism class that's mandatory for the UCLA Medical School.
00:12:32.060
Well, you definitely don't want your doctor not to have a mandatory racism class. But what sorts of
00:12:39.080
things do they learn? Let's see. During the lecture, the mandatory UCLA Medical School class on
00:12:46.860
structural racism, the guest speaker led the students in some kind of non-secular prayer to
00:12:54.120
Mama Earth and then got them to chant, free, free Palestine, denigrated medicine as white science.
0.99
00:13:02.660
Oh, my God. And apparently some of them were, you know, refusing to go along. So there were some,
00:13:15.040
there were some resistance to it. But, you know, I almost want to go back to the corporate world
00:13:24.540
just so I can experience this, you know, as the Dilbert cartoonist, not as a regular person,
00:13:30.180
just so I can mock it. That'd be fun. Well, the Daily Wire launches a new courtroom reality show
00:13:41.060
starring, starring their, one of their on-air hosts, Matt Walsh, who, to the best of my understanding,
00:13:49.840
is, is not a judge. But I saw the clips for it, and I gotta say, it looks like a winner.
00:14:00.180
It looks like a, just like a dead winner. Because all of this is Matt Walsh mocking idiots,
1.00
00:14:06.240
but in a courtroom setting where they have to listen to him, and he's got a, he's got a little,
1.00
00:14:11.340
Now, whoever came up with this idea, the very idea of it is so absurd, because he's not a judge.
00:14:21.040
But he's very judgy. Like, like his whole job, his whole job basically is, you know, writing and
00:14:26.860
talking in a judgmental way about things. So to have him wearing his little robe and banging his gavel
00:14:33.060
and mocking idiots on camera, I'm, I'm down for it. I'm down for it. Haven't seen the show,
1.00
00:14:40.180
but I feel like I can recommend it, you know, at least give it a chance.
00:14:45.800
All right. California's, Governor Newsom introduced this new plan. I guess this is going to happen
00:14:52.340
in California, that every baby born in California is going to get a college savings account at birth
00:14:58.640
worth up to $1,500. What do you think of that idea? Giving kids $1,500 at birth and you just let
00:15:09.340
it sit there and as an investment, I guess, and build up steam. I don't know. Almost every other
00:15:18.280
topic, almost every other topic I can say, oh, you know, that's good or that's bad. This one's a
00:15:26.000
little unclear because I'd have to see the math. I would have to see the math. There, there's
00:15:32.300
something very appealing about it and he, they didn't invent this idea. And the idea goes like
00:15:38.080
this. If you give a kid $1,500 today, it might, you know, grow in value. And by the time they're
00:15:45.740
ready to go to college, you don't need to give them a loan they can't pay back. That would actually
00:15:51.880
be a good investment. Might even encourage people to get more education than they would
00:15:56.580
have otherwise. So there's, there's a whole bunch that got some weird tickle on my nose.
00:16:04.360
It might be a good idea. I can't decide. You know, if you look in the short run, it's just
00:16:10.400
giving people money, but in the long run, could it be so good that we're all happy it happened?
00:16:17.080
I don't know. I, but well, if it's invested, it will, it will grow faster than inflation if you do
00:16:25.740
it right. I don't know. I'm open-minded on that one. That might not be a gigantic mistake, which would
00:16:32.260
be quite a difference from everything else California does. By the way, is anybody experiencing a blizzard
00:16:38.560
today? Any blizzards? Nice day here in California. I'll be taking a nice walk with my teeth, just in
00:16:49.500
my t-shirt. Might be shorts weather. I'm not sure. But that's why I live in California. If you say,
00:16:58.060
why do you live in California with all these many, many management problems? This is why. This is why.
00:17:04.280
I wanted to live somewhere where I wouldn't die just because I went outdoors. That's not good
00:17:10.500
enough reason. How'd you die? Well, I made the mistake of going outdoors. Nope. Won't kill me right
00:17:18.760
away here. The Daily Mail has a report that says there's a new study, a landmark 15-year study
00:17:28.060
story about trans kids. Are you surprised to learn that almost all the trans kids grow
00:17:34.760
out of being trans by the time they're adults? It's just a phase. So, I don't know. It said
00:17:43.340
most. I don't know if that's 51% or 91%, but most go through a phase. So, if you knew that
00:17:58.060
it's a phase. How in the world is it legal to transition kids?
00:18:05.320
How in any sane world is that legal when it's a 50-50 bet? Yeah, at best, it's probably less than 50-50.
00:18:16.900
It's just amazing. And how many of you are surprised? Is anybody surprised that it's a phase that many
00:18:23.380
kids go through and grow animals? Of course not. Because you can convince kids of absolutely
00:18:29.500
anything. Kids will believe whatever. And if their body chemistry is not caught up to their,
00:18:36.900
you know, sex, you could totally see why they would think they're the other thing.
00:18:42.160
Yeah. How hard is it to imagine a, let's say, a tomboyish girl who is just going through a phase
00:18:50.120
and thinking it's not a phase? That would be pretty normal. Yeah. Same with, you know, some little boy
00:18:57.480
who wants to wear a dress because he thinks it's funny and then likes it a little bit.
00:19:00.740
Probably just a phase. Yeah. So maybe we should stop mutilating children

00:20:12.240
Well, Charlemagne the God, who's hosting on The Daily Show, he said, among other things,
0.99
00:20:19.840
the truth about DEI is that although it's well-intentioned, it's mostly garbage.
0.77
00:20:25.240
And then he played a montage of conservatives mocking DEI by changing the letters, you know,
0.77
00:20:32.900
to mean something besides diversity, equity, and inclusion. One of the clips he played was
00:20:38.460
Greg Guffeld saying DEI didn't earn it. Now, I didn't make that one up. I stole it from somebody
00:20:48.640
on the internet whose name I didn't manage to write down at the time. But that one's just a killer.
00:20:55.240
Yeah. Well, when you see didn't earn it, that really should straighten out your thinking.
00:21:01.600
Because the issue is that people will think that. Not that it's going to be true for every person.
00:21:08.480
It's just that that's what people will think. It's just automatic. Of course, you're going to think
00:21:12.440
that. But although Charlemagne did say that DEI allowed racist to be openly racist,
00:21:19.080
the examples he gave were things like people saying, oh, it must have been a DEI hire that
00:21:26.660
caused that barge to hit the bridge. Is it racist to speculate that the barge might have
00:21:33.860
been a DEI situation? Is that racist? I'll give you the ruling. Racist or not racist?
00:21:40.080
What do you say? It sounds a little sus to me. So that's why I didn't do it. Since there was no
00:21:54.120
evidence that there was a DEI or even any racial element to the accident whatsoever, I think it's
00:21:59.820
a mistake to try to sell your DEI philosophy based on an accident. I think it's a persuasion mistake
00:22:10.820
to over-apply the DEI thinking to say, oh, I think I'll win an extra point by saying this accident
00:22:18.100
might have been DEI. It's just not a good look. It's not good for the world. It's not good for your
00:22:26.840
argument. It's a little racist. Do you agree or no? I mean, you know me, so I'm primed to not see
00:22:37.520
things as racist. But that looks, it's too far, a little too far. So that's my take. I would agree
00:22:44.620
with Charlemagne on both points. The DEI is well-intentioned but mostly garbage, exactly. But the
0.99
00:22:52.160
garbage is, you know, all the BS corporate part, you know, good idea ruined. I'm getting a lot of
0.98
00:23:00.960
comments on that. Well, it is funny. Okay, I'll give you that blaming the barge on DEI. It's a little
00:23:11.880
funny because it's a, the thing that makes something funny is an oversimplification. That's just
00:23:20.940
automatically funny. So if you say, oh, the barge is a DEI hire, that is a humorous exaggeration
00:23:28.140
oversimplification with no evidence to support it, which is why it's funny. It's funny because it kind
00:23:35.420
of doesn't fit. That's what makes it funny. If it was just what happened, well, then it wouldn't be a
00:23:41.780
joke. It would be a description of what happened. So yeah, it's because it's a little bit too far.
00:23:48.620
Well, it's just too far. Let's not say a little bit. However, my, my take on this is that the dam
00:23:57.200
is broken on DEI. If Charlemagne the God, being a prominent voice, can say in public, you know,
00:24:06.780
with lots of thinking about it in advance, that DEI is mostly garbage, and that it's probably having a
0.96
00:24:14.220
backfire effect. I think the dam just broke. That means that other people can say it too.
0.96
00:24:22.800
He's making it safe. So he's taking the arrow in the back on this, and I think he's doing a public
00:24:30.040
service. So good for you. I'd say good work. Not only that, but I thought he, Charlemagne is growing
00:24:38.840
into the job. The, the first clip I saw of him doing the Daily Show, my, my first impression honestly
00:24:46.520
was, you know, glad he got a chance, but he can't really deliver the joke. You know, I felt he was
00:24:55.560
falling short on the delivery, but I don't know how many shows he's done now, but I watched this clip
00:25:00.140
and I would say, yeah, he grew into it. He actually grew into it. Yeah. He actually solved.
00:25:06.900
He went into a new situation, which by the way, is my highest compliment. My highest compliment is he
00:25:13.820
went into a new situation, which could have been super embarrassing. Did it stop him? No, no, he just
00:25:21.100
did it anyway. Was his first day out a huge win? Nope. Nope. It was a little bit embarrassing, honestly.
00:25:30.140
But did he feel the embarrassment? I don't know. All I know is he kept at it and then he got good at
00:25:35.980
it. So that's my, that's, that's A plus. There's nothing you can say about that, but A plus. Good
00:25:42.960
job. I like to see good work. I like to call it out when people do good jobs. That's a good job.
00:25:51.120
Well, China apparently hacked into Microsoft's mail and got into the accounts of some top US
00:25:55.960
officials. And people are saying that Microsoft, the critics are saying that Microsoft has a,
00:26:02.680
a culture of not taking security as seriously as they should. But you know, that's something
00:26:09.060
critics say, who knows how seriously anybody's thinking. But here's something that was a quote
00:26:15.840
from that story. Well, no organization is immune to cyber attack from well-resourced adversaries.
00:26:23.440
No organization. There's no organization that's immune from cyber attack.
00:26:28.700
No organization. Wow. Well, that's not entirely true, is it? That no organization is safe from
00:26:42.360
hackers. Well, let me give you an example of, of a organization that's completely safe. All 50 states
00:26:51.700
election systems. All of them. Pristine. Boy, do they take security seriously there. Not at a place
00:27:01.180
like Microsoft. No, the Microsoft smartest people in the entire fucking world, um, on security and
0.98
00:27:11.760
technology. They, they, what, you know, those clowns, they're not even taking this seriously. But
0.99
00:27:18.700
luckily, luckily, luckily people, and this is what protects the Republic, every single person
00:27:25.380
involved in our elections, and especially the election security, unlike Microsoft, you know,
0.95
00:27:33.200
a bunch of clowns, just walking around. The Microsoft people, yeah, have I ever done an impression of
0.92
00:27:39.780
Microsoft people? Look, just walking around. They're like this.
00:27:51.320
I know, I know what you're going to say. You're going to say, Scott, they recruit the smartest
1.00
00:27:56.240
people in the world and the best people in their, in their field. That's true. But then you find out
00:28:02.260
they're all lax about this internet security, and what can I conclude? Because it's not like you can't do it.
00:28:08.740
It's not like it's not easy. How do I know internet security is easy? 50 elections, people. Listen to me.
00:28:19.620
All 50 election systems, pristine, unhackable, completely secured. And yet, and yet, Microsoft can't figure it out.
00:28:29.280
Come on, Microsoft. Thank goodness our elections are something we can trust.
00:28:41.360
Well, Biden administration has canceled their plans to refill the emergency oil reserves.
00:28:47.300
Turns out, turns out the prices are too high. So, because the prices are too high, we'll just
00:28:56.500
not be ready for a war. Hmm. I wonder if there are any risks of hiring the wrong president.
00:29:06.420
What did the other president do? Oh, he filled the reserves when oil prices were really low,
00:29:17.700
and oil prices were low because he was such a pro-energy president. You know, in a way, that all
00:29:25.860
worked out, didn't it? Being pro-energy drives down the prices. You say, hey, prices are low. Let's fill that
00:29:32.300
reserve. Make sure nobody attacks us because we look all prepared. But Biden went the other way.
00:29:40.580
Destroy the energy industry. Make the prices high. Use up all the cheap gas so that we'll be vulnerable
00:29:46.320
if we're attacked. Hmm. Okay. But at least that's the only bad thing Biden's doing. Can we agree on that, at least?
00:29:59.420
Yes. No other mistakes. Flawless. Pristine, I say again. Pristine. Well, here's another story about
00:30:07.880
Biden. He's trying to overthrow the government of an ally, Israel. Okay, that's not ideal. But there's
00:30:15.600
the reporting is that the United States is encouraging these fake protests. So it looks like the people are
00:30:25.500
against Netanyahu. They're going to extort ministers in the Israeli government, the rich ones, telling
00:30:31.600
them they'll clamp down on their businesses internationally if they don't get rid of Netanyahu.
00:30:36.720
And America is building a port in Gaza, allegedly to deliver aid, but probably to take military control
00:30:44.660
of Gaza away from Israel, some say. Now, is this reporting true? I don't know. Sounds true. Because
1.00
00:30:55.520
the way our intelligence people work is they always have to have a fake protest when they want to overthrow
00:31:01.380
a government. Do you remember Black Lives Matter and Antifa? That was our intelligence people
00:31:08.640
creating fake protests. Now, we know they're fake because they stopped as soon as Biden was president.
00:31:14.780
Duh. And it's the same technique they used in 80 other countries they overthrow. So as soon as you see
00:31:22.680
there's a bunch of fake protests, that means America's trying to overthrow your country.
00:31:29.180
That's basically a really good sign that they're trying to overthrow your country.
0.86
00:31:33.800
So some of the reporting here I can't confirm and some of it is an interpretation and a little bit
00:31:41.300
of mind reading. But does it look to you like Biden wants to get rid of Netanyahu? I say yes.
0.53
00:31:48.240
If I had to bet on it, it looks like it's exactly what it looks like. Yeah. That they're trying to get
00:31:54.240
rid of Netanyahu. So not only is Biden trying to get rid of his competition, both Trump and RFK Jr.,
00:32:03.800
in different ways, using lawfare, not giving security to RFK Jr., keeping him off the ballot.
00:32:11.240
He's the most undemocratic president, certainly in American history. I don't think nobody's come
00:32:19.160
close. RFK Jr. just says straight out that Biden's the biggest threat to freedom. Because he actually,
00:32:27.420
he's done massive First Amendment violations, meaning the government worked with private entities to
00:32:34.480
censor. And the things they censored were the truth. It's bad enough that you censor. But they censored
00:32:42.680
really vital, important truths. Like really, really important to your health. COVID, for example.
00:32:49.340
So yes, Biden's overthrowing other countries, our allies. So he's quite the anti-democracy guy.
00:32:58.800
Here's a question that I had in my mind. And I said to myself, well, I can get an answer to this
00:33:06.560
question by using Google and searching. And watch how easy this is to get the right answer.
00:33:14.240
I'm going to ask you for the answer first. And then I'll check Google and make sure that your
00:33:20.460
answer is correct. Okay. Here's the question. Are seed oils good for your health, bad for your health,
00:33:27.360
or no difference? Seed oils, good for your health, bad for your health, or no difference?
00:33:35.620
In the comments, well, if you're on the internet, you'll see all the smart people say seed oils are
00:33:46.520
maybe the worst thing you could have in your body. So olive oil is still good. Avocado oil is still
00:33:54.400
good. Because they're not based on the seeds. They're based on the fruit, I guess. So a lot of
00:34:00.780
you are saying bad. Now, I didn't know one way or the other. But I've seen a lot of smart people say
00:34:08.040
it's bad based on science. So I went to Google. And I said, our seed oil is bad. What do you think
00:34:15.700
you told me? No, they're fine. They're fine. So what's true? Do you think that big food has any
00:34:26.280
control over Google? Because I looked at the sources, and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public
00:34:34.580
Health says the whole seed oil thing is BS, and there's no real risk from it at all. It's fine.
00:34:39.940
It's Harvard. Harvard School of Public Health says no real risk. Is Harvard a credible source?
00:34:52.260
No. Are you kidding me? No, Harvard's not a credible source for anything.
00:34:58.120
I don't know if they ever were, but we certainly don't think they are now. It's basically the
00:35:03.340
Bloomberg of colleges. So I don't know. So as of this morning, I don't even have a best guess.
00:35:10.780
I do not have a best guess. I mean, it's easy to keep away from them. Well, actually, it's not easy
00:35:18.660
because it's in dressings. So I try to avoid any kind of dressing from a restaurant or DoorDash.
00:35:27.600
So I don't use their dressings usually. I guess there was a reason for that. So I don't know if
00:35:34.700
the seed oils are bad. I just know the sources can't be trusted. I saw Mike Sernovich talking about
00:35:41.600
the government keeps talking about solar flares disrupting things, and he thinks they might be
00:35:48.200
priming you so that election day might be, hey, solar flare. You know, we got all the mail-in ballots
00:35:55.740
because they were mailed in before, but the same day voting with our machines, ah, can't do it.
00:36:03.840
I guess there'll be long delays in all those Republican precincts because, ah, the solar flare
00:36:09.680
got us. We can't explain it. Didn't that happen in Maricopa? Maricopa, their machines all like
00:36:19.260
mysteriously stopped working on election day, and now we got solar flares. Well, I will not go as far
00:36:27.660
as Cernod is in saying that it's part of a plan, but I do like his pattern recognition.
00:36:35.980
So his pattern recognition picked up this pattern. He could be right. Yeah, I don't have an intuition
00:36:42.940
about this in particular, but yeah, I would be amazed if they don't have massive technical
00:36:50.620
problems on election day because the technical problems on election day will always work against
00:36:57.020
the Republicans. So of course they're going to have technical problems. Why wouldn't they?
00:37:03.340
A technical problem is the easiest thing to fake. What can be easier to fake than a technical problem?
00:37:09.180
By far the easiest. Yeah, by far the easiest. So yeah, I would expect some technical problem,
00:37:16.780
whether they blame it on solar flares or not. All right. Sage Steele is a journalist,
00:37:26.220
and she's telling us that when she did an ESPN interview for Biden that she was given the questions
00:37:34.300
word for word and told she couldn't ask follow-up questions. So on ABC, ESPN, I think they own ESPN,
00:37:45.180
right? Their journalist, now keep in mind this is a professional journalist. The journalist was given
00:37:53.340
by management the questions to ask and told that she can't ask follow-up questions. So in other words,
00:37:59.740
if she asks a question and Biden just lies to her face, she has to say, next question,
00:38:08.780
and just let it lay. And that was her specific direction from her bosses.
00:38:17.340
In case you're wondering if things are as rigged as you think, oh yeah, they're totally rigged.
00:38:22.780
All right. Trump is still thinking about how to clarify his abortion situation. I'm going to make
00:38:33.660
a suggestion for the very best thing he could do. Are you ready? The single hardest persuasion
00:38:43.660
challenge of all time. I'm going to tell you what Trump, and maybe Trump alone, maybe nobody else could
00:38:50.540
get away with this. But there is an out. He does have a way to say what he believes. At the same time,
00:39:00.700
it softens the problem for Republicans. All right? Listen to this carefully. And this is one that you've
00:39:08.060
never heard anybody use before. I may have mentioned it, but you've never heard a politician say this.
00:39:12.380
This is what I'd say if I were president. The president of the United States should only favor life
00:39:22.860
in every situation. No exceptions. American life. American life. The American president should always
00:39:32.300
favor life and should never make decisions in those gray areas when it comes to Americans living or dying.
00:39:39.100
But there are going to be cases where tough choices have to be made. You don't want the president to
00:39:47.180
make those choices. You want your president to be commander in chief if somebody attacks you.
00:39:54.220
Right? If somebody attacks us, I say, president, whoever you are, doesn't matter who it is,
00:40:01.660
you have all the power you need. Do what you have to do. Now, in that case, I want the president to make
00:40:09.020
all the decisions, you know, the immediate ones, you know, obviously with consulting with experts and
00:40:15.340
generals. But that's a case where you really want your president to take all of the power because it's
00:40:21.100
just the way you're going to stay alive. But if it's domestic and it's a better America,
00:40:28.620
the president should never be on the side of anything that even in the most ambiguous case
00:40:37.260
could reduce life in the United States. But somebody has to make those decisions. Who should it be? Well,
00:40:44.780
because it's life and death, you want that decision to be driven as close as possible to the people
00:40:52.300
directly involved. Ideally, you know, the doctor and the patient. But if you can't get it all the way
00:41:00.940
down to the doctor and the patient, the state is a lot closer. And so the one thing I can get right
00:41:07.900
as your president is I can take it out of my hands. If you want to know my personal opinion,
00:41:14.780
then you add your personal opinion. My personal opinion is, you know, I think this or that.
00:41:20.140
But I do not want in any way to be part of the decision of life and death in your personal,
00:41:26.860
very private moments. If the state wants to do it, that's between the state and its citizens.
00:41:33.660
But absolutely, the president of the United States should never, ever be against life,
00:41:41.020
even if it's an ambiguous case. Now, could he get away with that? Yeah, he could.
00:41:50.140
Everybody would hate it. But it would be hated equally. Just right. The Republicans who are, you know,
00:41:58.700
ban abortion are going to say, ah, we hoped you would do a national abortion bill, you know,
00:42:04.780
banning it. And Trump would say, you don't want me in that business. And then the Democrats would say,
00:42:11.980
but you should be in favor of abortion. And then he would say, you don't want me in that business.
00:42:18.300
You want everybody else. There should be only one exception of the person who should say,
00:42:24.060
I'll take a pass. Just the president. He's the only one who should take a pass.
00:42:36.940
Now, I don't think he'll do this, by the way. I think what he'll do is some version of,
00:42:45.580
you know, the states, the states need to decide. But if it's up to me, I would have several exceptions.
00:42:50.540
And I would treat it as sort of a negotiated middle ground. So that's probably what he's going to do.
00:43:01.180
I don't think it's going to gain him any votes. The best he can do is reduce how many votes he loses.
00:43:07.580
And that would reduce, probably give him a little boost, you know, because it wouldn't be a hard commitment.
00:43:16.460
But, yeah, there's no right answer. Let's do a Trump law affair update.
00:43:22.460
We've got a judge who's doing some mind reading. Let's see. The judge has rejected Trump's bid to delay
00:43:30.460
the hush money, the Stormy Daniels hush money criminal trial until the Supreme Court rules on presidential immunity.
00:43:38.700
So in other words, there's the possibility that the president would have all kinds of immunity.
00:43:44.940
And if that were the case, then this and other things would be, you know, irrelevant.
00:43:51.580
They would just go away. Or would they be delayed until after he's president?
00:43:56.780
No, they would go away because he did it under the cover of presidency.
00:44:01.420
But the judge Merchant decided that he would not wait to find out if the whole case would just go away
00:44:08.860
because he was president and he had that immunity. And the reason he says that he's not going to wait
00:44:16.060
for that decision is, he goes, the timing of the defense filing, quote, raises real questions
00:44:22.540
about the sincerity and actual purpose of the motion.
00:44:26.780
What? Why does the sincerity of the request change the law?
00:44:36.460
Is that a thing? I'm sure it is a thing, but it doesn't sound right to me.
00:44:46.940
Now, I get that, you know, if you kill somebody in self-defense, your intentions are different than if
00:44:51.340
you just murdered them. So, yeah, what you're thinking matters. But if you're lawyers and you're
00:44:58.380
doing everything you can for your client and the law allows you to do this, where does sincerity come
00:45:06.060
into it? How much more sincere do you have to be to think maybe this whole thing should go away and
00:45:13.820
we should at least find out if he has immunity? That's the most sincere thing I could even imagine.
00:45:20.940
All right. I'm Trump's lawyer and I know that there could be this future thing that's going to happen
00:45:26.220
anyway and it's going to decide whether this case makes any difference at all.
00:45:30.700
How am I not sincere when I ask you to wait for that decision? How in the world is that not sincere?
00:45:39.740
It's strategically correct. It's legally correct. It's logical. It's exactly what they should be
00:45:48.540
doing for their client. And they didn't make up any of it. It's real stuff. Like there really is an
00:45:55.180
immunity decision and it's not very far away. How does a judge look into their minds and see that
00:46:02.380
they're insincere when every indication is that they are? There's not a single indication that
00:46:09.180
there's anything but good lawyering with a strong argument. I don't see anything. I don't see anything
00:46:15.740
else except a strong argument. Oh no, I'm looking into their brain. I'm seeing a lack of sincerity.
00:46:31.020
But a part of it is they missed some deadlines to do it earlier. But again, I say it's either legal
00:46:36.940
to do it now or it's not legal. The fact that they missed an earlier deadline, how is that relevant?
00:46:45.580
How is that relevant? It should be just it's legal or it's not legal. And if it's legal,
00:46:52.540
they're just doing good lawyering. Maybe they didn't in the past, but that would be
00:46:57.260
not a reason to penalize them now. Well, how about this box gate trial, the Mar-a-Lago secret boxes?
00:47:07.500
I guess Jack Smith is going after the judge and threatening the judge with professional repercussions.
00:47:14.300
So this seems to be more, more of the non-democratic process using lawfare.
00:47:29.500
Yeah. So when you see it all as a group of actions, there never has been a president more
00:47:39.340
against the constitution than Biden. Can we say that for sure? There's no president who's ever
00:47:45.820
been more anti-constitution because he's completely taken out the first amendment by a workaround,
00:47:52.620
you know, using these NGOs and Soros funded things and fake fact checkers and, you know,
00:47:58.620
the social media pressure and everything. So the first amendment is gone. He's chipping away at the
00:48:03.980
second amendment, doing the best he can. And now they're using lawfare, weaponizing the justice system,
00:48:10.300
trying to keep people off the ballot. We've never seen anything like this. This is not even in the
00:48:17.580
domain of anything we've ever seen before, unless, unless there's some, you know, old presidential
00:48:24.380
story I don't know about. I've never seen anything like this. This is so right in your face.
00:48:30.300
We're just going to get rid of this whole constitution thing. And of course, DEI is all just racist
00:48:36.780
bullshit. So, um, so that's happening. Politico, um, has a, uh, an article from somebody named Rory
1.00
00:48:49.180
Daniels, who is a Democrat donor, we're told by people who don't like his story. And he says that, uh,
00:48:57.180
he's some kind of China expert. I say laughingly, because he, he says that, um, China prefers Trump.
00:49:06.780
All right. So a Democrat who actually funds Democrats writes in Politico that in his opinion,
00:49:15.420
China really wants Trump. Do you think that's real?
00:49:21.100
That China wants Trump? That seems ridiculous. This is ridiculous. Anyway, but people will believe
0.98
00:49:29.900
anything. Did you know that, uh, there's a new development? Apparently we can now predict prime
00:49:38.140
numbers, which is the thing that the experts thought could never be done. When I say predict them,
00:49:45.260
I mean, predict the next one that we'll discover, you know, which could be, you know, 20 digits long,
00:49:50.700
or, you know, some gigantic number, but allegedly it was supposed to be impossible to predict. But now
00:49:56.940
there's, um, some mathematicians who think they can and have. So they've, they've actually tried it
00:50:03.740
out, made a prediction. I think it worked. So it's some researchers in, uh, Hong Kong and North Carolina.
00:50:10.940
I don't know what good that is, but I'll put that in the category of everything you thought was true
00:50:17.500
is not true. If you just, if you just pick anything that you thought was true and wait 20 years,
00:50:25.740
it's probably not. You could almost throw a dart at any guaranteed true thing. How about the big bang?
00:50:32.380
Throw a dart at that. Do you think the big bang is proven out? No, it's kind of largely been debunked.
00:50:40.460
The most basic thing I ever learned in science. How about evolution? Now that's pretty guaranteed,
00:50:46.620
right? There's, there's just so much proof for evolution. Well, unless we're a simulation and
00:50:52.220
unless you believe physics and you believe the, uh, the, uh, double slit experiment, do you believe
00:50:59.260
Schrodinger's cat? Do you believe that there's such thing as, you know, the cat is both living
00:51:04.940
and dead in the box? Let me say it a different way. The cat is not both alive and dead in the box.
00:51:13.420
Do you all know the Schrodinger's cat example? You put the cat in a box that nobody can see anything
00:51:18.300
that's happening inside, but there's a randomized poison. So you don't know if the poison has been
00:51:24.460
randomly activated or not. So for you on the outside of the box, you don't know if the cat is alive or dead.
00:51:31.500
Physics suggests that both states exist until observed. That when you open the box,
00:51:39.420
that cat will be either alive or dead. But here's the fun part. That means you're creating history
00:51:48.460
in the present. That means your observation creates the past because if the cat was not
00:51:55.020
guaranteed alive or not guaranteed dead until you open the box, the moment you see the dead cat,
00:52:01.500
the history of the cat dying appears at the same time. The history didn't exist until the cat was seen dead.
00:52:10.620
Do you get that? We have proof that we create history on the fly and we've had it for a long time.
00:52:17.260
We just don't interpret it that way. Instead, we interpret it that the cat was both alive and dead.
00:52:23.420
No, that's absurd. That's an absurdity. But if we're a simulation and all indications,
00:52:31.500
in my opinion, are that we are, then it would act like a video game. That you don't see the forest
00:52:38.060
until your character goes into the forest and then it creates it because it needs a forest.
00:52:43.020
So you create the past. You don't, you don't just observe it. It was there anyway.
00:52:56.300
I don't even know why I was going down that path, but I'm sure I connected to something
00:53:03.020
Erasmus in poll says in a three-way match between Biden-Trump and RFK Jr. that 44% would go for
00:53:12.140
Trump and 38% for Biden and 10% for Kennedy. So every poll seems to suggest that Trump has a
00:53:20.940
insurmountable lead, especially in the swing states, most of them. All but one, or some say all of them,
00:53:27.020
he's ahead. And it's a pretty big lead. Well, as you know, Biden raised $26 million in his big
00:53:37.260
celebrity bash recently. And it was a record, everybody said. It's historic. Nobody could
00:53:41.900
ever beat that number. He is the best fundraiser of all. Oh, okay. Well, it looks like Trump's going to
00:53:48.300
raise $43 million at a Palm Beach fundraiser this weekend, they project. So $43 million would be
00:53:54.460
the new record by a lot. Let's see. What other records has Trump set? Let's see. He made more
00:54:03.500
money as president than any president ever because he got canceled and created True Social and it went
00:54:09.340
public. He's got quite a few records there. Never started a war. Never started a war. That's a pretty
00:54:17.180
good record. All right. Wall Street Journal is reporting that men are leaving the Democrat
00:54:25.100
Party in droves, especially black and Latino young voters. Apparently, every group is having a little
00:54:34.300
bit of second thought about Biden, but men in particular are especially leaving. So the Wall
00:54:39.660
Street Journal poll found that Biden was drawing only 37% of men in the seven swing states. Now,
00:54:46.300
that was on the ballot with only him and Trump, so without RFK Jr. And that found about the same
00:54:54.220
nationwide. And that is way weaker than... Biden had 46% of men in 2020. So he's gone from 46% to 37% of
00:55:06.380
men as mostly minority men because the white guys had already left. The ones with testosterone had already
0.73
00:55:13.980
left. So do any of you remember when I first started saying that Democrats were the party of women?
00:55:23.340
Has anybody been with me long enough that you remember the first time I said that?
00:55:26.620
I think it was during Hillary's run against Trump, if I recall. And you could see then that Hillary was
00:55:37.740
turning into the party of women. But now it's a thing. The men are abandoning it. They see it's a
0.97
00:55:45.100
party of women. I'm going to take some credit for being the first person to notice that,
0.91
00:55:49.500
that it was going that way. I'm sure other people noticed it, but nobody made as much noise about it
00:55:57.260
as I did. Well, here's the thing. If the Democrats are the party of women, liberal women, and we know
1.00
00:56:06.300
their rate of mental illness, I would put it at 70%. I think 70% of liberal women have mental illness.
1.00
00:56:15.260
Around 50% have diagnosed or have sought treatment. So if 50% have sought treatment,
00:56:23.340
at least 70% are suffering. Now, how many of them are only suffering from TDS and didn't seek treatment?
00:56:31.340
It might be 90% have bonafide, observable mental problems. So if the men are leaving at this rate,
00:56:41.340
it completely turns over the Democrat party to people who are not figuratively crazy,
00:56:49.740
not using hyperbole. It literally is a filtering process that left all the crazy people in one place.
00:56:58.380
Now, is that predictable? That if you get enough crazy people, there'll be a point where everything
00:57:04.780
breaks and the people who don't want to be around crazy people just get the hell out of there.
0.59
00:57:09.020
That's what's happening. The men are realizing that they're with crazy people, actually crazy.
0.97
00:57:17.820
And the men are saying, what the hell is going on? Get me out of here. I want to go where my work
0.82
00:57:22.860
makes a difference. And if I succeed, I get to keep my money, you know, not crazy things. Yeah, get the F away.
00:57:33.420
So why is it that so many liberal women are crazy? Well, part of it's the news making them crazy and TDS. And
1.00
00:57:41.420
you know, maybe it's the phones and all this, but I've got another, I have another hypothesis.
00:57:46.540
As you know, I like to do some work at Starbucks quite often because it's a great environment to
00:57:52.940
bring your laptop and get a little extra work done while you have some delicious coffee.
00:57:57.900
But I also am sitting there while I'm watching everybody else's orders.
00:58:03.180
If a man comes in, there's a pretty good chance that man's getting a cup of coffee.
00:58:07.980
If a woman comes in, what is she ordering? Sugar. She's ordering sugar. Yeah.
1.00
00:58:18.700
I wonder if sugar can make you crazy. Oh, here's a study. High levels of glucose triglycerides
00:58:27.660
linked to psychiatric disorders, this new study says. So Starbucks, which in my opinion is a liquid
00:58:36.620
candy store. Let me say that again. Starbucks for men is a place to get coffee. For women,
1.00
00:58:46.300
it's a liquid candy store. They're going for the sugar. If you stand there and watch who walks in,
00:58:52.860
what they pick up and what they walk out with, it's sugar. Now I'm, I'm on a low sugar diet
00:59:00.620
because my blood, you know, even at my weight and, you know, eating a pretty clean diet, even I am a
00:59:08.060
little bit high in sugar. So there's literally one item in all of Starbucks I'm willing to eat
00:59:13.740
that doesn't have wheat in it because I want to stay away from that. There's only one item,
00:59:18.300
just the egg bites basically. So, so we have a Starbucks on every corner. We have, uh, the liberal
00:59:27.100
women walking in there and picking up their sugar, going crazy, listening to the news and playing with
0.99
00:59:32.860
their phones, not being able to get a date because the whole dating situation and their meaning of life
00:59:38.940
has been destroyed. And then they go into politics and they vote. This is not a sustainable situation,
00:59:47.820
not sustainable. So we, we just have to be a little bit more honest about what's going on.
00:59:54.060
Democrats are a party of women. Women are eating too much sugar and they're going fucking crazy.
1.00
01:00:02.860
Not just because of the sugar. I mean, it's also the, the phones, the situation, the old family
1.00
01:00:09.340
dating situation, complexity of life, et cetera. Now I have a second theory that I'm going to break out.
01:00:17.740
But if something were driving all of civilization crazy, whatever it is, you know, you, you can pick
01:00:25.420
your favorite thing. It's the news, it's their phones, it's something, whatever it is. Where would
01:00:31.900
you see it first? Where, where would they, like, if there was a ray gun that made people crazy, where
01:00:39.740
would you see it first? I think you see it in children because they have the weakest minds.
01:00:47.980
And then you'd see them going trans and non-binary like crazy. Do we see that? Yes. Yes. You see
1.00
01:00:56.140
children having major psychological problems, changing their genders, trying anything, literally
0.98
01:01:02.460
trying anything to try to, you know, solve what's happening. So you'd see it in children and, and
01:01:08.460
definitely children are going nuts. Secondly, you would see it in women before men. Why? Well, do I
0.67
01:01:18.060
even need to explain that? All right. Can we finally get past the point where I have to treat men and
01:01:24.220
women like they're the same? Is there anybody listening who needs me to do, oh, there's some
1.00
01:01:30.860
reason that they're exactly the same? No, you don't need that, right? Or haven't we outgrown that? Yeah.
01:01:37.820
I'm pretty sure that women are, let's say, closer to their emotional, let's say that their emotional
1.00
01:01:45.500
life is richer than men. Is that the best way to say it? That women have a richer emotional life
0.80
01:01:53.500
than men. Because that takes the, takes the judgment out of it, right? Because I think you'd all agree
01:01:59.180
with that. The women have a richer emotional life. If you have a rich emotional life and I find out about
1.00
01:02:07.100
it and I'm a hypnotist, do you know how easy it is to manipulate somebody with a rich emotional life?
01:02:15.420
Super easy. Easier than somebody who's analytical, that's for sure. You can also fool, fool very smart
01:02:23.900
analytical people. But that's all different, different kind of process. Yeah. So if we're,
01:02:30.700
if we're being subjected to some kind of outside force or forces that are driving people crazy,
01:02:37.660
every observation is supporting that. Because the humans are falling in the exact order
01:02:43.180
that they would be susceptible to outside manipulation of their psychological wellbeing.
01:02:49.020
It's all there. It's right in front of you. Let's see. Is there any other evidence of that? Well,
01:02:57.900
Joe Rogan was talking to Coleman Hughes and Coleman Hughes had been on The View recently and had a
01:03:04.700
good little interaction with them. And it caused Joe Rogan to characterize The View as,
01:03:10.700
the people on The View as, quote, rabies-infested henhouse. Rabies-infested henhouse.
01:03:20.540
Well, what would be another word for that? Batshit crazy liberal woman. Yeah. So
1.00
01:03:29.980
people are willing to say it out loud now. They're going to use their own language,
01:03:33.740
but people are saying it out loud. When you watch The View, you really don't get the feeling you're
01:03:41.660
seeing a difference of opinion. You think you're seeing mental illness. Only. That's all I say. I
01:03:50.140
know what a difference of opinion looks like. You know who has a difference of opinion? Jon Stewart.
01:03:57.100
Jon Stewart. Now he's got, you know, maybe a little TDS like everybody, but he's not insane. He's not
01:04:03.340
mentally incompetent. He's, he doesn't have rabies. He just has different information, different
01:04:09.820
priorities, you know, little team play, but he's not crazy. Right? Bill Maher, you can disagree with
01:04:17.580
him all day long, but he doesn't seem crazy. You know, he has a little TDS, but otherwise fairly normal
01:04:25.340
psychologically, as far as we can tell. But there's definitely a difference when you look at The View.
01:04:30.540
They actually seem mentally unwell. And if we can't call out mental health and we have to keep
0.96
01:04:39.100
treating it like it's a difference of opinion, that's not going to work very well. Yeah. We need
01:04:45.340
to treat mental health as a mental problem. You know, if you want to respect the people involved,
01:04:52.140
do you treat them like it's a medical problem? Well, the bird flu may be coming at us. I don't
01:05:01.340
know. Somebody had sex with a cow and a bird at the same time, ate a hamburger. I don't know the
0.98
01:05:06.940
details. I may have made that up, but somehow the CDC is worrying that this bird flu can spread among
01:05:14.540
our dairy cattle. But Thomas Massey, picking up the pattern quickly, says the bureaucrats and
01:05:21.420
corporations will probably use this to advance an agenda against raw milk independent farmers and
01:05:25.900
backyard chickens. Let me give you some advice. Never get a backyard chicken.
01:05:34.300
Never. Never. Never get a backyard chicken. Because you know what happens if you have a backyard chicken?
01:05:44.860
Sooner or later, one way or another, you're going to end up with a backyard rooster. Do you know what
01:05:52.060
happens when you have a backyard rooster? Well, you don't sleep too well and your neighbors are going to
01:05:59.180
call the authorities. And then what do you do with your rooster? Do you kill it? Well, that's not legal.
01:06:06.300
No, because it's a pet. You can't kill your pet. And they're protected. You cannot kill a male,
01:06:12.700
you know, a rooster. So, well, at least you can give it away, right? You can find, like,
01:06:18.140
somebody wants to take it. Nope. There are zero places that will take a rooster.
01:06:24.780
Can't give it away. Can't sell it. Can't lose it. Can't kill it.
01:06:30.620
But you might have to move. So, if you get a rooster, you're going to have to sell your house.
01:06:37.340
Your neighbors will make you move. Don't get a chicken. It's going to lead to a rooster.
1.00
01:06:44.140
You're going to have to move. And none of that's a joke, by the way. And it's guaranteed.
01:06:49.660
That chain of events, that's guaranteed. Chicken, rooster, got to leave your house. Don't do it.
01:06:56.380
Best advice I'll ever give you. Because I've seen it. I'm speaking from direct, close experience.
01:07:04.140
All right. Tucker is talking to Marjorie Taylor Greene. And she's not too keen on Speaker Johnson and
01:07:13.660
him trying to get money to Ukraine. And there was, you know, the speculation that
01:07:21.180
Speaker Johnson is being blackmailed by somebody. Does he act like somebody who's being blackmailed?
01:07:27.740
If you're just observing, and you see that the top Republican is just gung-ho about Ukraine support,
01:07:38.460
and you notice that he replaced Mitch McConnell, who's going to remain as a senator,
01:07:45.020
and Mitch McConnell said his number one goal, as he remains a senator, is funding Ukraine.
01:07:51.180
So the ex-Speaker of the House was in favor of it. The new Speaker of the House is in favor of it.
01:07:58.140
But Republicans by majority are not in favor of it. Now, is that true? The Republicans by majority are
01:08:04.140
not in favor in the House? Is that true right now? I think that's true. So why would the leaders
01:08:12.380
be doing something that their base does not favor by a majority? I'll need a fact check on that. I think
01:08:19.820
it's not a majority. And the only reason I can think of is that our intelligence people
01:08:28.060
threaten them. So I think they're coerced. I think McConnell either has some financial gain
01:08:34.060
or he's being blackmailed. And I think that Speaker Johnson is probably just being blackmailed.
01:08:40.780
I think he's being blackmailed. I think we have a blackmail accuracy,
01:08:45.900
that our entire government is some basically collection of blackmailed people that the
01:08:50.620
intelligence people can control. They prefer blackmailable people because that's how they
1.00
01:08:56.620
control them. So that's what it looks like. I don't have any proof of that. But I would say
01:09:02.300
observationally, they look like captives. They act like prisoners, basically. If you act like a
01:09:09.100
prisoner long enough, I'm going to think you're a prisoner. And these guys are acting like prisoners.
01:09:14.220
They don't act like these are their opinions at all.
01:09:19.420
And I think Mitch McConnell calls it an isolationist movement to give up on Ukraine.
01:09:26.380
Is it? Is it an isolationist movement? Or is it just a bad idea? An isolationist.
01:09:33.820
And of course, CNN and MSNBC have been telling us forever that Ukraine is winning, which is
01:09:42.380
apparently absurd. And so why would the leaders of the Republican Party, of all things,
01:09:50.380
want to support all this money for war when they know it's not going to make a difference?
01:09:57.260
What's going on? The only thing I can assume is it's exactly what it looks like.
01:10:02.780
The industrial military complex can make a lot of money out of that $60 billion,
01:10:08.540
and they want their cut. And they have blackmail or bribery or something on the leaders.
01:10:16.460
Now, if you've got a Republican like MTG questioning whether the leader of her own group
01:10:23.580
is being blackmailed, he has to step down. It doesn't matter if you can prove it. If you're
01:10:30.620
acting in a way that your own base can't tell if you've been blackmailed or you're under duress,
0.99
01:10:36.460
and you can't explain why you're acting the way you're acting, you know, without obvious bullshit,
0.92
01:10:42.060
I feel like that loss of confidence should be enough to get you out of the job. You know,
0.97
01:10:47.180
the appearance of being blackmailed seems like that should be enough, you know, to take somebody out of that
01:10:53.820
kind of a job. Anyway, the French are making noise about maybe sending troops on the ground to Ukraine.
01:11:01.500
So, Russia called the French defense minister to say, it will create problems for France itself.
01:11:12.940
I don't want to say what kind of problems. But France, you might have some problems.
01:11:22.380
That's ominous. So, what do you think? Are the French going to break the seal,
0.98
01:11:28.140
and then it will be easier for America to add some troops? Because at that point, well,
01:11:32.700
it's just a NATO action, and we're part of NATO, and we've got to protect our French allies. So,
01:11:38.380
of course we're sending some advisors, just a few advisors. No, we're just going to train them to
01:11:44.540
use the weapons. Well, while they're there, they shot a few things. Well, as long as we're over
01:11:49.180
there and everybody knows we're over there and shooting, we might as well send some more people
01:11:52.300
over there. Pretty soon, the military-industrial complex is making even more money than before.
01:12:02.060
More people are speaking out about Israel's treatment of Gaza. I will remind you that my
01:12:08.060
opinion of what Israel is doing there is irrelevant, as is yours, because they're going to do what
01:12:15.100
they're going to do. Now, there are a lot of cases where your opinion actually could make a difference.
01:12:20.540
I think in American politics, if you press hard enough and complain hard enough and enough people
01:12:25.980
pick up the same complaint, it probably makes a difference. But this is a really special case.
01:12:31.900
It's a once-ever situation. You hope it's once-ever. And Israel's just going to do what they're going
1.00
01:12:40.620
to do. And I think they're going to burn their international reputation. But they've decided it's
01:12:46.540
worth the cost. And I don't know that they're wrong. From a purely, let's say, national interest point of
01:12:55.020
view, are they wrong? To burn their Holocaust goodwill, ironically, if you can call it that.
01:13:03.580
But they're torching it. The whole Holocaust thing is gone. I think it's gone already. Imagine this
0.78
01:13:11.100
conversation. Israeli says, blah, blah, blah, Holocaust. Now, where does the conversation go after that?
01:13:19.260
Every time. For the rest of eternity. Gaza. Right? Gaza now erases the Holocaust as an asset,
0.91
01:13:31.820
their greatest asset. It's gone. But is it a good investment? I'm going to say again that in 200 years,
01:13:40.220
if Israel essentially controls Gaza and pacified it and maybe made it economically successful,
01:13:46.860
it's going to look like they made the right decisions. In the war at the moment, it never
01:13:52.940
looks like a good decision, does it? Like nothing looks smart when the bullets are flying. Everybody
01:13:59.580
looks dumb in that situation. You're like, really? You couldn't find any way to prevent somebody from
0.99
01:14:05.620
shooting at you for a year. There was nothing you could do to make that not happen. You know,
01:14:11.180
so we just automatically think if the bullets are flying, probably both sides are being a little
0.99
01:14:16.020
fucked up. Right? A little bit. Like every situation is different, but you just automatically have that
0.99
01:14:22.340
bias. So anyway, Paul Graham had an interesting comment about a situation that I don't know if
01:14:28.740
it's true at all because, you know, everything out of the war zone is fake. But he says that there's some
01:14:37.140
evidence from some military person who says it's true that the Israelis preferred to wait for the Hamas
01:14:49.300
high-level person to come home, and then they would take out the whole home with the family and the wife.
0.92
01:14:56.020
And that they preferred doing it that way, I guess because they knew where he was then. You know,
01:15:01.380
they didn't have to wonder if they were getting them. Now, that might have been one person,
01:15:06.660
and it's the fog of war. I'd be surprised if that's the official policy. I wouldn't be surprised if
01:15:14.100
somebody's commander told them to do it. I'd be a little surprised if it was coming from the top.
01:15:19.860
But it's war. Do I think that it is moral or ethical to kill the entire family when you're just
01:15:27.540
going after the Hamas leader who was married to them? Well, it's war. And I don't believe in making
01:15:35.140
moral and ethical judgments during a war because it's all bad. Like making some little, you know,
01:15:42.660
ranking of, oh, this is a little bit worse than this other thing. You know, it's just all bad.
01:15:46.980
Like everything is just bad, both sides, just all the time, all bad. But certainly self-defense
01:15:54.020
is the motivating factor here for Israel. So I'm going to ask the question a different way.
01:16:04.020
And this is just to make you expand your thinking about it. All right. So analogies are never the
01:16:10.820
same as the situation. So I'm going to give you an analogy just to expand your thinking,
01:16:15.700
but analogies are not arguments. So I don't win the argument with this. I might expand your thinking.
01:16:21.540
Imagine there's a situation where somebody kidnapped a child, um, did surgery on them and put a bomb
01:16:29.620
inside their torso, sewed them up and then said, all right, kid, your, your parents are here. And
01:16:36.180
maybe the real goal is to blow up wherever the parents work. So yeah, get out of the car and run
01:16:43.220
towards your parents. Now let's say that our intelligence people had learned in advance that
01:16:47.540
the kid had a bomb in it. And as soon as he went through the doorway, the building would blow up
01:16:52.420
and the kid would be dead. Would it be ethical and moral to shoot the child before he reached the door?
01:17:00.740
Murder the innocent child to avoid the further death, ethical, moral. Well, I'm going to take a page
01:17:10.820
of, uh, uh, uh, Dana Perino's book. She, she, she split the baby on TV yesterday in a way that I
01:17:18.980
thought was clever, totally immoral, which is, you know, separate from the question of whether you need
01:17:26.020
to do it. You know, the, the, the question of morality, you, you can allow yourself a luxury
01:17:32.900
belief. So a luxury belief is one that you don't have to operate on. It's like somebody else's problem.
01:17:39.460
Oh yeah. Killing people, totally immoral. I'm totally against it, which I can say because nobody slaughtered
0.83
01:17:48.180
my people on October 7th. Pretty easy for me to say war is immoral, but if you slaughtered my people,
01:17:57.940
I might feel a little differently about that. So we want to be good people in public. So if anybody
01:18:03.780
asks you, what do you think about, you know, the situation, you should say, ah, it's terrible.
01:18:10.180
Yeah, it's a terrible situation and it's all immoral and unethical and I'm not going to change my vote.
01:18:15.380
It's all immoral and unethical. Well, that's just sort of a dodge, but I do like that. It's a nod
01:18:21.940
toward, you know, maybe an ideal that we should strive for, that we should try to be good people.
01:18:29.780
But in the real world, you've got to make decisions. And if your terrorist is commuting
01:18:36.260
and commuting back to the house, do you call that self-defense if you take out the whole house?
01:18:42.100
Well, I say it's not worth talking about because I don't think this is unusual in war.
01:18:52.660
To me, this looks sort of ordinary, terrible, but kind of ordinary, meaning that probably every war has
01:19:01.140
this same degree of things you wish didn't happen. And in the special case where the
01:19:08.580
children have been weaponized, it makes the self-defense argument stronger, right?
01:19:16.340
So here's another one, same argument. Let's say there's a home invader at your home
01:19:22.820
and it's somebody bigger than you. I'll just use me. I'll use myself.
01:19:27.620
There's a home invader and they're definitely bigger than me. And, but I get lucky. We get in
01:19:33.460
a scuffle and the home invader trips over the rug and I jump on top of them and I, you know,
01:19:39.540
managed to be able to hold them down. Now, uh, and let's say the home invaders knife came free
01:19:47.940
and I'm now I'm sitting in the back of the home invader and I've got my knife in my hand,
01:19:52.660
but they're subdued. So I can't legally kill them, right? You all agree? I can't kill them
0.64
01:19:58.820
because they're subdued. And now the person who's subdued says, all right, you're in trouble now.
0.97
01:20:04.980
If you don't kill me and you let me get up, I'm going to kill you. And you know, you only got lucky
0.99
01:20:12.420
the first time because it's somebody bigger than you. And you know, if you let them up and you don't
01:20:18.820
have your phone with you, so you can't call out, you can't call out to anybody. If you let them up,
01:20:24.420
they're going to kill you. Is it self-defense if you finish them off?
0.96
01:20:31.780
If you finish them off because it's the only way you can stay alive is that self-defense. And I think
01:20:40.420
the law would say it's not self-defense. I think they would call it murder. Do you know what I would
01:20:47.220
call it? Necessary. I would call it necessary. It might also be murder, but that doesn't change it
01:20:56.820
being necessary. So yes, I would stab them to death. And then I would call the police in that order
1.00
01:21:05.940
every time. So if you say to me, there's a house full of people who are going to grow up to be
01:21:12.500
terrorists if you kill their dad, do I have a legal ethical right to kill them too? No, I don't.
0.98
01:21:21.540
I don't. It's not moral and it's not ethical. It might be necessary. It might be necessary.
01:21:30.260
But it's not moral. It's not ethical. So war is about what is necessary. It's not about moral
01:21:37.700
or ethical. We just wish it were. It isn't. All right. And then CNN had some analysts who said that
01:21:48.660
the Israeli military has told them to basically just shoot every man of fighting age.
01:21:55.780
Do you think that's true? Do you think that the official
01:22:00.180
rules of engagement are to shoot everybody of military age?
01:22:05.780
I don't know. You know, it could be one commander.
0.91
01:22:10.180
Maybe. Could be more than that. Could be this person's lying. No, no. It's on CNN. So it could just be a lie.
01:22:20.100
But is it necessary to shoot every man of fighting age? I don't know. I don't know.
0.89
01:22:29.940
I know that if you didn't, a lot more of you would die.
01:22:33.700
That I know. There would be more Israeli soldiers would die if they didn't.
0.88
01:22:40.340
So does that make it appropriate? Because it's self-defense.
01:22:46.100
They're killing him just in case. Is that self-defense?
01:22:53.860
But I'm not going to defend Israel. I'm just going to say in a war, this is exactly what happens.
0.99
01:23:01.060
There are no good guys in wars. There are no good guys in wars. There's just what's necessary.
01:23:09.300
And then there are people who are on your side. And that's about it.
01:23:13.220
So if Israel is doing what is necessary, and they're still our allies, then that's my conclusion.
01:23:19.460
It's necessary, they're allies. If you ask me, is it moral and ethical? No.
01:23:32.340
Are there people who want it to stop moral and ethical? They might be.
01:23:40.580
So I can separate those things pretty easily.
0.99
01:23:43.540
All right, ladies and gentlemen, that's all I've got for you today.
01:23:45.860
And this amazing show that you spent too much time on.
01:23:49.460
I'm going to say goodbye to X and YouTube and Rumble.
01:23:52.740
You'll spend a little extra time just with the local subscribers.
