Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2474 CWSA 05⧸14⧸24

00:00:00.000 Oh, no video yet. So just close and reopen your locals if you don't have video. There it is.

00:00:08.540 Video just popped up. Just took a moment. If you'd like to take this experience up to a level that

00:00:14.520 nobody can really even understand with their tiny human brains, all you need is a cover mug or a

00:00:19.500 glass or a tank or chalice, a canteen jug or a flask, a basil of any kind. Fill it with your

00:00:23.700 favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at

00:00:28.340 the day. It makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens. Now go.

00:00:38.180 So, so good. Well, I was asked to talk again about a trick for getting out of your own head.

00:00:49.160 We've talked about how ruminating about your problems is bad for you. And there's some

00:00:54.260 research on that that suggests that the less you think about your problems, the better,

00:00:59.480 unless it's something you need to solve. If it's just something in your past, it's probably not

00:01:03.000 going to help you to think about it too much. Here's the trick. And I've been practicing this

00:01:09.300 at home. Every now and then I will get too far inside my head like everybody else. And I found

00:01:15.940 that I can instantly get out of my head with two words, get out. So I treat myself like I'm two people

00:01:24.520 or that I'm one person who lives in two different worlds. If you think about this, this is really true.

00:01:31.720 Don't you live in two worlds? One of the worlds is the, is your memory and imagination. And if you're

00:01:38.880 just sitting alone with no stimulus from the outside, you, you retreat into the imaginary world

00:01:45.260 and the imaginary world can sometimes loop you into bad thoughts and make them worse. So I said,

00:01:52.220 as soon as I realized I'd been sucked into the internal world and I figured it out, I just yelled,

00:01:59.300 get out, get out. And I can immediately take myself into the physical world again. And in the physical

00:02:05.000 world, I don't have any memories. Look, there's a dog. There's a tree. It's warm outside. Hey, I'm

00:02:13.300 alive. My body feels good. I've got some chores to do. I got some things to accomplish. And suddenly

00:02:20.800 you can make all of that internal world go away. So here's, here's the advice. And I want to hear back

00:02:27.840 from you. How many of you try it? It works. I guarantee it'll work by the way. Just tell yourself that you

00:02:34.680 have two worlds and that they're separate. One is the internal imaginary world. That's not real.

00:02:41.900 And the other is the real world. And every time you get dragged into the unreal world of your inner

00:02:47.780 thoughts, just yell, get out, get out and get up and start moving and touching the real world.

00:02:55.680 Walk outside, literally get out of your chair. Just say, get out, get out, stand up,

00:03:01.400 walk directly to your door, walk out the door and stand in the sun or the cold or the rain,

00:03:09.260 whatever. Just, just get out, just get out of your head. Now try that. Now what the thing that I'm

00:03:17.620 adding is the two phrases, they're the two words that you can use as a key. Hypnotists call that a key.

00:03:25.260 A key would be anything that triggers another thing, right? So if you can always think of those

00:03:32.820 two words, get out, and that makes you physically move, the next time you need it, the two words will

00:03:40.080 be linked to your physical movement. And you'll say, get out and you'll just stand up. It'll happen

00:03:45.800 automatically. So tie the activity to the words. And then the words became a tool that will always

00:03:52.140 help you when, when you can't get there on your own, just use the tool. Oh, just say the two words,

00:03:58.020 get out. Boom. That'll change your life. All right. There's another study. This should be no surprise

00:04:07.040 that exercise has more health benefits than even you knew. And you knew there were lots of them.

00:04:12.500 So it strengthens your heart, improves your mood, reduces your risk for depression, chronic disease,

00:04:17.340 brain disorders such as Alzheimer's. But in particular, weightlifting seems to be especially

00:04:25.420 good in boosting brain function and slowing cognitive decline. Did you ever wonder why musicians can have

00:04:36.220 a string of hits in their 20s and then they can't do it in their 60s? Have you ever noticed that?

00:04:43.280 And you think, well, why is that? Shouldn't you get better and better? But by the time you're 70,

00:04:51.400 if you've been making music every day, like Paul McCartney, shouldn't you be making your greatest

00:04:56.460 masterpieces when you've reached your greatest level of experience? But it doesn't seem that way.

00:05:03.940 Now, but I'm having the opposite experience. In my experience, it's getting easier and easier to

00:05:11.800 cartoon. And let me let me tell you what I've done in the past 12 months. Now, my age is I'll be 67

00:05:19.780 in June. All right. So there was one point in my life that I couldn't even imagine that I would still

00:05:26.980 be working over the age of 65. It was just unimaginable. But I'm at my ideal body weight

00:05:35.980 because I exercise. And I lift. I do a lot of lifting. You know, I move my weights actually into

00:05:43.220 my man cave so that I, it's just always there. You know, if I want to lift, I don't have to plan

00:05:49.680 anything. I just walk over and pick something up. So after a lifetime of using weight training,

00:05:57.540 did my brain, did my brain get any benefits from that? In other words, when I, when I look at Paul

00:06:04.080 McCartney, I say to myself, okay, you're a good body weight, but I don't think you're lifting.

00:06:10.140 Did you ever have that thought? You see a musician that you look at, uh, um, uh, what's his name? Uh,

00:06:20.360 Mick Jagger. Look at Mick Jagger. And you've seen the videos of him dancing at age 80. And you're like,

00:06:26.900 oh my goodness, his cardio is amazing. But then you look at his arms. He's got little noodle arms.

00:06:35.340 And part of the reason he can still dance is he weighs 65 pounds. So, and then you listen to the

00:06:41.220 music that the Stones are making. And I hate to be unkind because they're one of my favorite groups

00:06:46.260 of all time, but they're not making good music. I don't know if you've noticed, but their latest

00:06:52.720 album is honestly a little embarrassing. They shouldn't have done it. And, uh, so then I look

00:07:00.400 at my own production. All right. So here are my numbers for what I've produced in the last 12

00:07:06.960 months. This is rough. And I want you to see if you can guess the number before, before I tell you

00:07:13.460 the number, right? So I've done this with my man cave people. They've already guessed, but the rest of

00:07:18.780 you, how many comics do you think I've made in the last 12 months? Give me the quickest answer off

00:07:23.860 the top of your head. How many brand new comics have I created in the past 12 months?

00:07:31.420 The answer is

00:07:32.980 730. Because I do the Dilbert comic every day. That's 365. And I also do the, uh, the robots

00:07:44.660 read news comic basically every day. So that's two times 365. So I produced 730 pieces of art this year.

00:07:56.020 And in my opinion, they're as good as my best work. Now, some of it is because, you know, I'm free now

00:08:03.500 so I can do some topics that are more fun. Now let me ask you, those of you who are still watching

00:08:09.340 Dilbert on subscription, is it accurate that it's still good? You can tell me if it's, if it's losing

00:08:17.500 a step. So you can look at the comments and make your own judgment. All right. How many jokes did I

00:08:23.740 write in the last 12 months? How many jokes did I write in the last 12 months? Take a guess. I don't

00:08:30.740 know the real number, but it's around 3,000 in 12 months. 3,000. The reason is that, um, between the

00:08:43.140 two comics, there are usually at least four jokes. You know, Dilbert is usually one joke and then

00:08:49.380 robots read news, which is usually, usually about the headlines. Only the subscribers see that. You'd have

00:08:54.760 to be a subscription. Uh, you'd have to be a subscriber on the locals platform to see it. But I often have

00:09:00.500 four jokes in one comic because there are the people reading the news and there's a chyron and there's

00:09:05.860 separate jokes. So it's like five jokes a day just for the comics. But then I go on to the X platform and

00:09:12.960 usually write three, four, five different jokes. And then I go into the man cave and I might have

00:09:20.840 three or four more jokes. So over the course of the year, I've written something like 3,000 jokes.

00:09:28.140 Now I also got canceled about a year ago. So I had to go into a hyperdrive to rebuild my entire business.

00:09:34.840 So I rebuilt my entire business model, uh, republished, you know, built a whole new publishing

00:09:40.740 enterprise with, uh, Joshua Lysak. Uh, so I've republished, uh, reframe. Well, I published for

00:09:47.320 the first time, reframe your brain, uh, republished second edition of how to fail. Almost everything

00:09:52.420 is still went big soon. You will see the trilogy of God's debris packed it into one book so that

00:09:59.800 you'll see that I'll give you a news about that. And I'll be relaunching the Dilbert calendar for 2025.

00:10:05.180 Now, all of those are pretty major projects and all of that happened in the last 12 months at the same

00:10:14.140 time. I did major, uh, work on my house and, uh, redid my man cave. So that that's how much I can

00:10:25.260 produce at my current age. Now, do you think it's an accident? Do you think it's an accident that I don't

00:10:32.960 drink alcohol? Think about it. I don't drink alcohol and I work every day, which I think helps,

00:10:42.560 you know, they say that it keeps your brain healthy. If you don't, don't let it rest too much.

00:10:47.560 I add new skills consistently, which they also say is good for older brains. Uh, I'll tell you a little

00:10:55.520 bit about my AI stuff. So I don't know how many people my age have signed up for multiple AI services

00:11:04.120 and, you know, jumped in and tried to make them work and you tried to figure out what AI is and all

00:11:09.180 that stuff. And that's all just really good for your brain. Now, my experience of life is that all of

00:11:16.940 those things really do make a difference and I can feel them in my normal business. So if I can give you

00:11:23.540 one piece of advice, it is this arrange your life. So it's easy to do resistance training.

00:11:32.280 So that might mean what I did. I put my weights right inside my man cave. So it's the place I want

00:11:38.720 to be in the right there. And I just put everything I like in one place so that I can't ignore it.

00:11:45.200 Maybe you join a gym and create a habit for that. But I would say, uh, we need some national habits

00:11:51.660 on weight training, but also taking a walk after dinner. Do you want to hear something that Trump

00:11:58.120 could do or any president can do that would change the chronic illness in the United States,

00:12:05.220 probably lower it by 20% with one, with one speech. All the president would have to do is say,

00:12:13.020 according to the latest studies, they're very consistent. If you take a walk after you eat,

00:12:18.720 especially if you have any sugar there, just take a walk after you eat. And indeed,

00:12:25.180 I'd love to see the entire country outside taking a walk every night, 20 minutes, just give me 15

00:12:33.200 minutes because it doesn't take long to get your body to, um, to go into a higher state of digestion

00:12:40.080 that is healthier. So you don't need to do a full workout. Just walk around the block. Wouldn't you love

00:12:46.460 to walk outdoors at, you know, whatever is your after dinner, you know, your six 30,

00:12:53.300 seven o'clock, whatever it is, and just see a whole bunch of people who are just doing a 15 minute walk

00:12:58.840 because they just ate. Do you realize that that alone would probably take diabetes down 20%

00:13:05.780 and all you would have to do is get Americans to feel like it's something to do. They just have to

00:13:12.840 sort of think about it. The reason I don't do is I don't think about it, but somebody like Trump could

00:13:17.640 say, walk after dinner and just say it at the end of every speech. Take a walk after you eat.

00:13:24.700 Imagine that just like ending every speech with that 20% difference in diabetes, probably that's my

00:13:32.300 guess. So there's a lot to be gained there if you do it right. Well, uh, Christopher Ruffo tells us

00:13:39.940 NPR might disappear if Republicans win because apparently, uh, public opinion has turned against

00:13:46.140 NPR with their awokeness. They've got a hundred million dollar, uh, annual subsidies from the

00:13:52.820 government and that might go away. Um, and I think we need that money for Ukraine because I've heard

00:13:59.980 there are some oligarchs in Ukraine who have not yet stolen enough money to live forever and have

00:14:06.320 generational wealth. So I think we need to repurpose that NPR money for, uh, for, to give it to the

00:14:13.280 Ukrainian, uh, billionaires like the rest of our money. Uh, Jake Novak was posting today on X.

00:14:22.580 Apparently CNBC had what they called an economist on an economist. Now this is CNBC. It's a business

00:14:32.380 show. And they had an economist on, so I'm going to read you what the economist said.

00:14:39.580 And I want you to tell me if you think that sounded like an economist to you. Okay.

00:14:46.940 Uh, the economist is telling the, the, uh, Joe Kernan, I think that raising corporate taxes

00:14:53.980 will reduce inflation by cutting the incentive for corporations to make excessive profits.

00:15:00.380 That's a, an economist on the business news channel. Uh, I don't know how many economists we have

00:15:13.580 watching this, but if you've had even a, let's say a glancing, a glancing association with the topic

00:15:22.620 of economics, you know, that cutting, that raising taxes on companies does not make them lower their prices.

00:15:34.140 We're going to raise your taxes. And if we keep raising them, you're going to lower your prices to consumers.

00:15:39.980 That feels like more like the opposite of an economist, which would be, I don't know, an art history major.

00:15:52.940 I don't even know if an art history major would think that raising the cost of corporations would

00:15:59.020 cause them to lower their prices to consumers. Do you really need to be an economist to have that opinion?

00:16:05.420 Well, I did not see who this economist is, but, um, probably not one I'd hire for my next economist party.

00:17:17.740 Sam Altman is saying that, uh, open AI will, uh, be adding to chat BT the chat GPT, the ability to

00:17:25.340 take actions on your behalf. So right now you can talk to the AI and it just sits there.

00:17:31.500 But imagine if you could talk to it and tell it to do something with your apps, like send a message

00:17:37.500 or make a note or do something like that. That would be world changing. Now, what is the current state

00:17:46.380 of AI? Completely useless. Really a big stupid joke. And I know this because I've been delving into it 0.58

00:17:58.380 hard enough to know it's not real. It's not even close to real. It is so not real. Meaning that every AI

00:18:07.660 is basically a scam. In other words, you think it's going to do something and it doesn't do it.

00:18:15.820 Let me just give you my current experience. I don't want, I don't want to throw this particular

00:18:20.380 company under the bus because I think it has potential, but everything in the AI space is too

00:18:27.180 rushed and too fast and incomplete. Everything's crippled and broken. And, and the interfaces I

00:18:35.180 think are rushed because there's sort of a gold rush mentality. Got to get there first. So I've been

00:18:41.180 tried to build my own chat, chat bot that's based on me. So, so just to give you an idea of what the

00:18:48.700 landscape looks like in the scam economics of, of AI. So, so I look at the webpage for Delphi

00:18:58.140 Delphi, AI that says, it will make me a clone. It'll clone me and make a chat bot of me. Now,

00:19:06.700 what do you think when somebody says in the AI context says AI right in the name? What do you

00:19:12.220 think that means when they say they're going to clone you? Don't you assume that means they'll clone

00:19:18.620 what you look like? Nope. I actually signed up and paid money before I determined that the only clone

00:19:26.700 I'd be looking at is a photograph that I uploaded to the site and it just shows the photograph. That's the

00:19:33.100 clone. The clone is your photograph of yourself that you upload. Now it does copy your voice.

00:19:43.020 So you do a voice sample and then it reproduces your voice. Do you think it reproduced my voice?

00:19:48.220 Well, yes, in the sense that you could recognize it was trying to reproduce my voice, but it also

00:19:58.220 turned me into such a douche bag that I can't even listen to myself. So my normal voice is a little

00:20:04.700 upbeat. You know, I try to add some optimism, a little color to it, like I'm doing now. I'm

00:20:09.420 exaggerating a little bit, but you know, try to make it interesting, try to, try to vary it a little bit.

00:20:14.540 But when I listen to the voice that's supposed to be me, it ends on a down note, which makes me sound

00:20:23.260 like I'm Scott Galloway, who's had a really bad day, instead of Scott Adams, who is relentlessly upbeat,

00:20:33.820 unless I've had a really bad day. So the voice is not there, right? It's really not a voice I'd want you

00:20:41.580 to hear as my representation. It's, it's sort of just sort of downbeat and monotone.

00:20:50.460 But the good news is that you can load it full of all the documents that you want, and then it will

00:20:59.260 know everything about you and can answer any questions about any topic you want. Now that's good.

00:21:03.500 So what do you think happened when I started loading documents into it? That's all it does.

00:21:10.620 This main function is just to look at your documents and then be able to answer them. Well,

00:21:15.260 the first thing it does is it says, well, you're out of space. No more documents for you,

00:21:21.260 unless you're willing to upgrade to our highest level, $400 a month.

00:21:33.500 I'm, I'm three quarters away on the onboarding process before I realized that the number they

00:21:40.780 give me for their, their quantity, like I can't really translate, I don't know, 10 million words

00:21:46.380 or whatever it was I was allowed. I couldn't really translate that into my mind to my own material to

00:21:53.020 know when I would run out. So I've got this totally affordable, I don't know, $40 a month or whatever it

00:21:59.420 was, but to actually use it in any useful way, $400 a month. So what did I do? Well, I'm in

00:22:10.220 experimenting mode, not, you know, hard economics FU mode. So I thought, you know what, I'll do a month

00:22:18.060 just to see, because I don't want to bail out to her because I'd already put a lot of information in,

00:22:22.460 I didn't want to lose it. So I upgraded. So at $400 a month, I put all my information into it,

00:22:30.940 but it's still talking like this. I'll ask it a question and it'll say, oh, I see you're interested

00:22:36.860 in that. A very good question for the day. Many people are interested in that. I could see why you

00:22:42.460 are too. And I, and I think, okay, stop doing that. So one of the things you can do is you can put in rules

00:22:50.540 that it'll check before it answers things. So, and you can put them in just English language,

00:22:55.260 which is really cool. So one of the rules would be use a sixth grade vocabulary,

00:23:02.380 right? Now, when I tell it to do that in real time, it does it really well. And it makes my

00:23:07.020 language much better. I also tell it to not do an introduction and not add any superfluous

00:23:12.220 information and does it great. So then I put that into rules. So I don't have to tell it every time

00:23:19.580 because the rules act like a super prompt, right? So instead of using a super prompt,

00:23:24.620 it'll, it'll read in your whole set of super prompts in advance of how you want it to act,

00:23:28.860 except it doesn't store it.

00:23:32.220 So none of the rules work. So I've got this whole set of rules. It doesn't do any of them.

00:23:37.500 So it's, it's the major feature of the thing. And it just doesn't do it. And I can't make it do it.

00:23:43.820 There's nothing I can put in those rules that makes the execute at all. I have no idea.

00:23:50.380 But at least I can get it to look at some Dilbert comics that I uploaded,

00:23:56.300 tell me the date of the comic and then the content of it, because I wanted to use it to search for

00:24:00.140 things. Sometimes it'll do it. Sometimes it won't. Sometimes it pretends it's doing it,

00:24:05.500 but it's lying. Sometimes it'll show me an image, but then it'll say it can't show me images.

00:24:11.180 Basically only randomness. There's nothing even predictable. So the basic thing I wanted to use

00:24:18.220 it for was to look at my work, answer questions on it, and maybe show it to somebody like, oh,

00:24:24.140 here's that comic should be able to do it. It does show images, but only does it when it wants to.

00:24:30.860 And it will tell me that it's showing me a comic and then show me the wrong comic.

00:24:35.660 Because it's, can't tell the difference between an example and an actual, you know, answer to a

00:24:41.820 question. So if I were to grade its usefulness, it says zero. It doesn't have any usefulness

00:24:47.660 whatsoever. But listen to this. I asked it to give me a URL, which I had given it. So I had trained

00:24:55.180 it on a URL to reproduce if somebody asked for it. And it tells me it can't give me a clickable URL.

00:25:04.620 I'm like, what? You can give me text. And of course, ChatGBT could do it. So I know AI can do it.

00:25:13.100 And it says it won't give me a clickable link. And I said, well, all right, can you at least just put

00:25:18.460 it in text? I can copy and paste it. It's like, no, I cannot give you a text link that's not clickable.

00:25:27.580 Now, keep in mind, it was not anything bad. It was, it was a public web page, not no bad content,

00:25:33.900 nothing like that, just a useful page. But if I, if I signed up for the top level, which I did the

00:25:41.900 $400 a month, I can get it, I can get a phone number for it, which is really cool, right? So I could

00:25:49.580 actually text my chat bot. And it will give me answers to questions. So I set it up and I text it

00:25:57.020 and it answered. And I thought, this is amazing. I mean, the answer was useless. So I asked the

00:26:04.780 follow-up question and it ignored me. That's right. My chat bot ghosted me. So I thought, well,

00:26:12.860 maybe it's what I asked. So I asked another thing and it answered. And then I asked a few more things

00:26:17.420 and I just decided not to. I don't know why. It never did. It didn't say it couldn't answer it.

00:26:23.900 It didn't give me, didn't ask for clarification. It just didn't answer.

00:26:28.540 But one of the times it did answer, it did give me a clickable link. But only if I paid $400 a month

00:26:35.340 and it could text it to me. Now, I'm not telling you this because I want to dump on this particular

00:26:42.060 product. Because like, well, first of all, you should now, I think some friends of mine invested it.

00:26:47.580 I don't know that for sure. But I have an indirect indication that some friends of mine actually have

00:26:54.700 an interest in that company. So I don't want to knock it. So if the thing you're taking away from

00:27:00.380 this is, oh, there's this one app that's suboptimal, that's not the story. The story is that's all of them.

00:27:07.500 They're all that. They're all something that should work but doesn't.

00:27:13.260 But damn, it looks attractive. I can't stop giving them my money. Because I keep thinking 0.98

00:27:20.540 something's really going to work. Nothing. So when OpenAI goes to this next step to, quote,

00:27:29.500 have the ability to take actions on your behalf, do you think that that's going to be all the useful

00:27:35.420 actions that you want it to do? No. It's going to be some weird little subset of actions that nobody

00:27:43.020 could ever use, unless it could also do some other things which it won't do. You know this isn't real,

00:27:49.820 right? Now, let me tell you what this reminds me of most. And I've told this story before,

00:27:56.140 but it fits perfectly here. When I worked for the phone company, we had the, I think,

00:28:01.820 the first internet connection anywhere around Northern California. You know, because we were

00:28:07.980 doing it in the lab, sort of experimenting. So I saw the first web pages that ever existed.

00:28:15.420 Isn't that funny? There were like two web pages that were public, and we would show people those two

00:28:20.940 web pages. So the internet at that time was completely useless. And I've told this story

00:28:26.140 before. Customer after customer would walk in, and they would only want to see that.

00:28:31.500 Oh, show me that internet thing. Well, you know, it only goes to two websites, and one of them's down.

00:28:37.340 So basically, all I can do is call up one image of a gem. And if you had an hour, I could call up a

00:28:43.180 second one. Yeah, yeah, let's see that. And I'd be like, seriously? Why in the world is that even

00:28:49.660 interesting? You couldn't use it for anything. And they would just be on fire about it. And you could

00:28:55.900 see, even then, that there was something about this internet thing that was going to be huge,

00:29:01.100 because people loved the bad version that didn't do anything. And they loved it.

00:29:06.700 Fast forward until the first iPhone came out. Remember the first iPhone? I had AT&T service.

00:29:17.180 If you had that combination, you couldn't make a phone call on your phone. So for a period of,

00:29:22.460 I don't know, 18 months or two years, I didn't make phone calls, because I didn't have a mechanism

00:29:26.780 to do it. It would just drop the call. Did that make me not have a smartphone? No. I was crazy for it.

00:29:35.340 It didn't do anything. It was worse than what it replaced. But I was still crazy for it. How do you

00:29:41.420 explain that? It's the same thing with AI. Same thing. I'm crazy for it. But honestly, it doesn't

00:29:50.140 do a freaking thing. I am confident that like the internet and like smartphones, it will get to that

00:29:56.780 place. It will one day be useful. But wow, we're not that close. We're really not that close.

00:30:02.780 All right. It's a good thing that AI is going to work someday because it looks like children are

00:30:11.580 all incapable of doing anything. According to Rasmussen, just 33% of American adults believe

00:30:17.500 college graduates will have the skills needed to enter the workforce. Only a third of adults

00:30:24.220 think that going to college prepares you for work. Now, it could be that this is one of those

00:30:31.260 questions that people sort of interpret differently. Because the fact is nobody's ready for work when

00:30:36.860 they get out of college. Would you agree? There's no such thing as a 21 year old who knows how to do

00:30:43.660 anything. And it never was. Right. I mean, not not something that they had a college education to do.

00:30:52.140 Like even if you learn to be an engineer, you get the job, you still have to unlearn it all.

00:30:58.220 You relearn how they do engineering and their processes and everything. So nobody's nobody's really

00:31:03.900 ready for work. But it might be worse. I don't know. It does seem like young people do fewer things 1.00

00:31:10.940 and they just get outside and just have fewer experiences outside the digital world. So it could

00:31:16.140 be that they're less capable. We'll see. But 52%, this is also Rasmussen, 52% say student protests on

00:31:25.340 college campuses make them less confident in whether recent college graduates are ready to enter the

00:31:30.860 workforce. Well, if I were an employer looking for people that age, I would be scared to death

00:31:38.860 to hire anybody who came from an Ivy League school because I would just think they're going to sue me.

00:31:44.060 Wouldn't you? Your odds of being sued feel like 100% if they came out of Columbia. So

00:31:54.220 did you ever think that you would be alive when having gone to college looks like a mark against you?

00:32:04.140 And like, oh, I don't want to see that. This one went to Princeton.

00:32:10.220 Yale. Sure, they're really smart, which just means they know how to sue me really well.

00:32:16.940 Well, basically, you're hiring your own enemy. Yeah. Well, you're really smart.

00:32:25.180 That's good. But you also went to a college which guarantees that you're going to see me as your

00:32:31.100 enemy. Did they teach you in school that as a white man, I'm your oppressor by any chance?

00:32:39.020 Because I wouldn't hire anybody who went to any school that they were taught

00:32:44.380 that white people are their oppressors and they need to get their stuff back.

00:32:48.940 You don't want that. All right. Joe Biden is in the news again for mispronouncing Kamala Harris's name. 1.00

00:33:00.380 He called her Kamala. Kamala. How long has he known her? He doesn't know her first name.

00:33:09.980 What does he call her privately that he doesn't know her name?

00:33:14.060 You know how I remember other people's names? It's because often if they're important to me,

00:33:19.500 I will use their names when I'm talking to other people. And if I used it wrong,

00:33:24.540 the other people would correct me. It makes me wonder, what does he call her behind her back?

00:33:31.340 You must have a nickname.

00:33:41.980 That's not funny. Somebody in the comments says he calls her Candace behind her back.

00:33:48.060 That's terrible. You're all going to hell. All right. Well, that's not important, 1.00

00:33:58.060 but you've got a president who doesn't know the first name of his vice president. And

00:34:01.740 you know, we're, we're so far past worrying about his, uh, demented brain. It's, it's just gone. 0.97

00:34:09.820 So, uh, Judge Andrew Napolitano on his podcast had, uh, this former CIA analyst, Larry Johnson,

00:34:19.660 who thinks that the Ukraine situation is mostly about, or might be largely about, uh, child

00:34:26.540 trafficking. Um, he added that Western countries will persist in investing in Ukraine due to their

00:34:34.300 interest in the trafficking of children for sex and also organ transplants.

00:34:41.900 What do you think about that? So it's a former CIA analyst who's saying in public

00:34:49.340 that he thinks Ukraine is about American government protecting the child trafficking business.

00:34:56.540 Well, I've got a tip for you in, uh, digesting the news. You ready for this? Here's a news tip.

00:35:07.740 Never believe anything that a former CIA person said. If you see former intelligence, anything,

00:35:17.100 don't believe anything that you hear from them, anything, right? I'll make an exception for, uh,

00:35:22.940 Jack Posobiec. I think he worked in Navy Intel or something, but, but if you see some odd ball on a

00:35:31.420 podcast, somebody you haven't seen before and they, they're an ex, ex CIA analyst and they make a claim

00:35:38.940 about UFOs or child trafficking. I'm not saying it's not true. I wouldn't know one way or another.

00:35:46.300 I would just not treat it as information. If you know what I mean, you know, I didn't watch the whole

00:35:52.780 thing. So I don't know what a judge Andrew Napolitano thought of that claim, but if I had to guess and

00:35:58.860 read his mind, he's a very experienced judge and he certainly has seen people lying and he knows what it

00:36:06.300 looks like. I don't think he necessarily bought that, but I don't know. So generally speaking,

00:36:14.940 uh, when I see former CIA, anything, I don't believe anything they say.

00:36:19.820 All right. Here's my theme for today. Uh, it looks like both sides in the presidential election are

00:36:24.780 priming the other, uh, for cheating. So both sides are trying to make the claim that if they lose,

00:36:33.260 it will be because cheating, right? So you've got the, you've got, uh, Department of Homeland Security

00:36:42.060 and the FBI saying that they're working hard to make sure that the election is not interfered by

00:36:48.780 foreign actors, or as they say, those, uh, white supremacists or, or far right people who are planning

00:36:55.740 some bad actions, right? So from the perspective of the Democrats, or at least the regime, um,

00:37:02.780 they're going to say, Oh yeah, we're working hard to make sure that there's no fraud. Huh?

00:37:10.380 So the Biden administration, they're working hard to make sure that, you know, the holes are plugged

00:37:16.780 and they've made rule changes and they've, they've tightened everything up so that there can be no

00:37:21.260 cheating. But at the same time, they've assured us there could be no cheating because it would be so

00:37:28.300 easy to detect. So on one hand, they're trying to make sure you can't cheat in the future.

00:37:35.740 And on the other hand, they're saying it was never possible to begin with.

00:37:40.300 Huh? It's almost as if everything they say is complete bullshit. I'm starting to have my doubts 1.00

00:37:49.020 about the honesty of our government. I don't know about you. I'm just getting a feeling, just an inkling,

00:37:55.900 a little tickle in the back of my brain that says, I don't know. I don't know if 100% of what they're

00:38:00.620 telling you is true. So we'll get into that theory, that theme a little bit. I remind you that Peter

00:38:07.980 Navarro is still in prison for being a Republican. And there's an election coming.

00:38:17.340 If you don't get off your fucking couch to get Peter Navarro out of prison, 1.00

00:38:40.860 you got to check your motivations. At the very least, you got to get this Republican out of jail. 1.00

00:38:53.740 Otherwise, you're next. You know you're next. I'm surprised I'm not in jail already.

00:38:59.660 So it would help me out if, you know, it'd help keep me out of jail too, if you voted.

00:39:05.820 So vote, because Peter Navarro is still in jail for being a Republican.

00:39:13.020 And there's an election coming. Act accordingly. I guess Don Jr. went to visit him, which I appreciate.

00:39:24.860 Rumble is filing a billion dollar lawsuit against Google for what they say is lost ad revenue and

00:39:29.900 exploiting their dominant position. Do you think they have a case? I don't know. Google has lots of

00:39:38.940 lawyers. So I don't know if you're going to win anything against them. But my guess is that they

00:39:46.060 have a good case. Now, I think I saw a little clip. I didn't watch it. But isn't that Dr. Epstein,

00:39:52.780 the fellow who researched Google, doesn't he believe that Google can move the election any way they want?

00:40:01.340 And he's got evidence to suggest they have and they will.

00:40:04.140 So how big a margin does Trump have to be up before the fact that Google can move the election 20%?

00:40:15.980 20%? You'd have to have an enormous lead to overcome that kind of action.

00:40:26.620 All right. So good luck to Rumble. I'm a stockholder in Rumble. Small one, but I like to mention that.

00:40:34.060 So I'm rooting for Rumble. I'm using the Rumble Studio right now, which, by the way,

00:40:38.780 you know, it's going through its beta, working out the bugs phase. But at the moment, it's working

00:40:43.580 great. Would you agree? Think about the fact that I'm broadcasting on four different platforms right

00:40:53.340 now using the Rumble Studio. And it's seamless. It's just a web page. I just go to the web page and sign

00:41:00.220 up and tell it which websites to go to. And it doesn't. And it shows you all the comments. I think

00:41:07.500 X comments are not here right now, but the others. It's kind of amazing. It's really the product I've

00:41:13.820 been waiting for forever. Because otherwise, I was using two different machines and, you know,

00:41:19.180 it was just a mess. So it's a good product. All right. Ian Miles Chong asked various AIs who would

00:41:28.620 be the best president. He asked ChatGPT, Claude AI, and Grok. And here's what they said. ChatGPT

00:41:34.780 recommended for President Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsom, Elizabeth Warren, Larry Hogan,

00:41:40.460 Pete Buttigieg, Mitt Romney, and Cory Booker. So I wonder if ChatGPT has any political bias.

00:41:51.340 All right. How about Claude AI? Claude AI proposed Liz Cheney.

00:42:04.540 And then Grok suggested Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

00:42:13.580 Interesting. So the person who's way ahead in the polls

00:42:19.180 Trump is not mentioned as even a top candidate by any of the major AIs.

00:42:29.900 So that's nothing to worry about, is it? No. No, nothing to worry about.

00:42:39.020 All right. There's a video, the RNC research account on X, showing a video of a young black man in a

00:42:49.740 what I take from context is probably a black barbershop.

00:42:55.980 And he's saying, quote, he's a Wisconsin voter. And he says, quote,

00:42:59.980 I didn't like hearing Biden now say that if you're not black, you're not black if you vote Democrat.

00:43:08.620 Wait, no, this is wrong. He said, I didn't like it when Biden said,

00:43:12.700 you're not black if you don't vote Democrat. He said, I thought it was a load of BS. I thought that

00:43:18.780 was an insult. Do you believe that that was a real thing that happened that they caught on video?

00:43:24.700 Do you believe that there was really a young black voter in a black barbershop in Wisconsin

00:43:29.020 who on his own said, I didn't like hearing Biden say that if you ain't black and no, if you don't vote

00:43:35.660 Democrat, you ain't black? No, I'm sorry. That's a little bit too on the nose. 0.76

00:43:43.500 A little bit too on the nose. Yeah. Almost certainly. It's a young man who

00:43:53.260 they knew was a Trump supporter. And probably they gave him something to say or he knew what to say.

00:44:01.420 But if you think they just walked up to somebody in a black barbershop and said, give us your

00:44:06.220 thoughts. And the first thing that came out of his mouth was that time that Biden said,

00:44:12.860 you know, you ain't black if you don't vote Democrat. Do you really think black voters care about that? 0.99

00:44:19.980 I mean, I've never really had that conversation. Have any of you? I don't. To me, it seems like just

00:44:26.380 the right-leaning talking point. I didn't think that was anything real. I mean, if this were Trump,

00:44:35.660 if Trump had said something that awkward, you know, if you don't vote for me, you ain't black,

00:44:41.660 I would have said, oh, come on, people. All he's saying is that the Democrats would be a better party

00:44:48.300 for black voters. That's all he's saying. I would have excused that away as just a choice of words,

00:44:56.300 and nothing racist. But yet, you know, because Trump has been gotcha-ed so many times, the right

00:45:03.100 likes to do their gotchas too. So their weakest gotcha is this one. But I do imagine if you're

00:45:11.260 black, it sounds a little grating to your ears, but it really was nothing except saying that he 0.96

00:45:16.700 thinks Democrats will do a better job for black Americans. That's all he was saying. And then to 0.94

00:45:21.740 turn this into a fake little, I assume it's fake. I don't know for sure. But my assumption is that it

00:45:28.700 was staged. Not that it's, you know, which is not that big a deal in an election season.

00:45:36.380 I mean, it's not like the crime of the century. Most of these things are a little bit staged.

00:45:41.180 This one's just way on the nose, you know, a little too obvious.

00:45:46.460 I saw there's a little interest in my idea of having Trump bag some groceries and just talking

00:45:52.860 to people about the cost of their food. I saw Jack Posobiec was retweeting that with some positive

00:46:00.380 thoughts and got tons of pickup. So I don't see anything wrong with that idea.

00:46:08.540 That might be one of the best ideas ever. I'd love to see it happen.

00:46:14.140 Well, good news. We have a verdict in the Stormy Daniels lawfare trial.

00:46:20.140 Breaking news. We have a verdict. So there's a verdict in the Stormy Daniels lawfare trial.

00:46:26.540 And the verdict is that the public has concluded that the 2020 election must have been rigged.

00:46:33.180 No, no, no, I didn't mean, I didn't mean that there's a verdict in the trial itself.

00:46:38.060 I mean, the public has reached their verdict.

00:46:41.980 Now, what is the relationship between the Stormy Daniels trial and the 2020 election?

00:46:49.580 Everything. It's the same fuckers. 1.00

00:46:52.300 The same fuckers who are putting Michael Cohen on the stand to try to put your ex-president in jail. 1.00

00:47:01.420 Those same fuckers are the ones who told us the 2020 election was fine. 1.00

00:47:05.980 And don't worry about it. It's a rigged Department of Justice case with a rigged jury. 1.00

00:47:13.420 The most lyingest of all of all witnesses of all time.

00:47:22.140 Even CNN is calling it out as lawfare.

00:47:26.540 It's completely transparent. It's right in front of you.

00:47:30.620 And I'll say it again. It's the same fuckers. 1.00

00:47:33.900 Right. Do you remember the Judge Jeanine likes to say this all the time? 1.00

00:47:40.140 And it's sort of a general truism that if a witness lies on the witness stand.

00:47:46.700 You are if you know that the witnesses lied, you're allowed to or you're encouraged to assume that they lied in general about other things that you're not so sure about.

00:47:57.100 That's a legal standard.

00:48:01.340 So let me apply this standard in a wider sense. 0.99

00:48:05.340 If you're going to put Michael fucking Cohen on the stand. 0.97

00:48:11.180 And you're going to do lawfare right in front of us where even CNN is bailed out and said, yeah, this is just lawfare. 1.00

00:48:17.740 You do that right in front of me, right in front of me, right in front of my fucking face. 0.99

00:48:24.700 You're doing that. And you want me to fucking believe that the 2020 election run by the same bag of fuckers was clean. 1.00

00:48:33.900 Now, I don't have any specific. 1.00

00:48:37.100 Evidence that the election was rigged in a way that would make a difference.

00:48:40.380 I don't personally.

00:48:41.920 But you know what the proof is? 1.00

00:48:43.380 The proof is this fucking trial. 1.00

00:48:45.880 You do this right in front of my fucking face. 1.00

00:48:48.620 Do not ask me to say ever that I think the 2020 election was not rigged. 1.00

00:48:54.820 It's obviously fucking rigged. 1.00

00:48:57.220 Because if they would do this right in front of my fucking face. 1.00

00:49:01.460 They would do anything. 1.00

00:49:03.680 They told you Trump was Hitler.

00:49:05.480 You think they stopped at doing the easy legal stuff to stop him?

00:49:10.360 No.

00:49:10.560 Now, it's obvious that 2020 was rigged. 0.99

00:49:14.180 And I don't want to hear a fucking argument about how much evidence you do or do not have, Scott. 0.99

00:49:20.240 I don't need any fucking evidence. 1.00

00:49:22.740 The evidence is the goddamn fucking trial. 1.00

00:49:25.860 You put that Stormy Daniel shit in my face. 1.00

00:49:29.020 Don't ask me to believe any fucking thing you ever say for the rest of your fucking lying lives. 1.00

00:49:37.780 Clear enough? 1.00

00:49:38.540 Clear enough?

00:49:40.560 So we have a verdict.

00:49:45.780 Alan Dershowitz is talking about the Stormy case.

00:49:49.160 And he expects a hung jury.

00:49:50.940 Maybe an outright acquittal. 0.97

00:49:52.940 But he thinks that the New York jury is just ridiculous. 0.90

00:49:57.100 And that having an all New York jury for this case would be similar to having an all Mississippi jury for a black defendant and acting like that was okay. 0.93

00:50:07.480 Did he say Mississippi?

00:50:09.320 Did he say Mississippi?

00:50:10.540 Maybe he did. 1.00

00:50:12.500 So even Dershowitz is saying, without any hesitation, that this is a ridiculous case, a ridiculous trial, and a ridiculous jury, and a ridiculous prosecutor. 0.98

00:50:27.840 By the way, the number of people who used to vote Democrat who have turned completely into Democrats continues to grow. 0.97

00:50:37.480 And it's the smartest Democrats. 0.97

00:50:39.560 It's the ones who don't give a fuck about what you think about their opinion, because they're going to give you the one that's real. 0.85

00:50:47.700 So Dershowitz, for whatever else you want to say about him, you know, nobody's, you know, I'm not going to defend everything that anybody does. 0.96

00:50:56.220 But Dershowitz is not afraid of your opinion of him.

00:50:59.840 That's why he can do this.

00:51:02.580 Elon Musk is not afraid of your opinion of him.

00:51:06.220 That's why he can have free speech and used to vote Democrat.

00:51:09.820 I'm not afraid of their opinion of me.

00:51:14.420 That's why I can still do this, as canceled as I am.

00:51:18.180 Bill Ackman is rich enough and has had some success with the Harvard stuff he was promoting that he seems to have largely become immune to criticism, too.

00:51:30.040 So watch the pattern.

00:51:31.600 Every time a Democrat finds some freedom, either because they're naturally brave or naturally so rich that they don't need your help, they can speak out against what's happening there.

00:51:46.600 But you have to have that freedom or you can't do it.

00:51:49.460 The normies who would lose their job or lose their social life or whatever, they can't do it.

00:51:54.140 But watch the people who can.

00:51:55.320 Watch the brave people.

00:51:56.620 They're all on the same side.

00:51:57.680 Meanwhile, the Biden administration is going to raise tariffs on China's electric vehicles and some other stuff, I think.

00:52:08.440 And China doesn't like it, of course, blah, blah, blah.

00:52:11.280 But the real story, of course, is that the Biden administration used to be highly opposed to Trump when he suggested raising tariffs on China.

00:52:20.680 But now it's their idea.

00:52:22.280 Oh, it went from the worst idea in the world to a good idea.

00:52:26.320 And then, of course, it didn't take long for probably Peter Doocy or somebody to ask Corinne Jean-Pierre, what's going on here?

00:52:35.060 Because you used to hate these tariffs and now you're big tariff lovers, just like Trump.

00:52:40.120 How do you explain that?

00:52:42.040 And I'd like to give my impression of Corinne Jean-Pierre trying to answer the question why they literally just flip-flopped on a thing that they said was, you know, poison and terrible.

00:52:54.020 And now they're going to do it.

00:52:56.060 All right.

00:52:56.360 You won't be able to hear this, see this if you're on the just the audio.

00:53:00.800 But I'd like to give you my physical impression of her face when asked that question.

00:53:05.840 And that, ladies and gentlemen, is capitulation face.

00:53:26.660 Capitulation.

00:53:28.800 Total capitulation.

00:53:30.340 They know they lost.

00:53:31.360 They know that unless they cheat, they don't have a chance.

00:53:36.800 The game is over.

00:53:38.920 And they know it. 0.97

00:53:40.280 And they know they're liars. 0.97

00:53:41.880 And they know everybody knows it. 1.00

00:53:43.520 And they know that Corinne Jean-Pierre will go down in history as the worst spokesperson of all fucking time. 0.99

00:53:52.460 And I think she's figured it out by now. 0.95

00:53:54.440 So here's what the Trump campaign should do.

00:53:58.840 They should do a commercial in which they show all the ways in which Biden is trying to turn into Trump.

00:54:06.140 Now, it's small ways because he's not successful, let's say, closing the border.

00:54:10.380 But isn't it true that Biden is doing some things that he's reversing some things that he reversed from Trump?

00:54:18.300 So there should be, at this point, maybe three to five examples where Biden is just becoming Trump after criticizing him for the thing that he's now doing.

00:54:30.440 Would that be true?

00:54:32.260 If it is true that there's three to five of them, it's a perfect campaign commercial.

00:54:37.740 You just show the before and after.

00:54:39.100 And then you do a funny thing at the end where you show, all right, here's how I do the commercial.

00:54:46.640 I do a split screen, a picture of Biden and Trump.

00:54:51.540 And then you show Biden saying, I will never do sanctions. 1.00

00:54:55.680 Sanctions are a stupid idea. 0.99

00:54:57.740 And then you show the next clip where he's, man, we're doing some sanctions. 1.00

00:55:01.880 And then you go back to the split screen, except you slightly morph the picture of Biden into Trump.

00:55:09.960 And then you do it again, another topic, and you come back to the split screen.

00:55:14.380 And now Biden's hair is turning orange.

00:55:17.840 You know what I mean?

00:55:18.720 And by the end, you just have two Trumps.

00:55:23.980 Anyway, maybe that would be bad because then the Democrats would say, well, I don't want to vote for either of these Trumps.

00:55:30.780 I guess that would be good because I wouldn't vote.

00:55:34.280 All right.

00:55:34.880 Well, Trump is leading in five out of six swing states.

00:55:40.480 There's a new New York Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, Siena College polls.

00:55:45.060 And Trump is up by, let's see, in a two-man race.

00:55:48.240 Why do we even keep reporting a two-man race?

00:55:50.840 It's not a two-man race.

00:55:53.960 Why are we even polling that?

00:55:56.780 What's the point of that?

00:55:58.740 It's like, all right, and now we're going to do a poll if Biden were running against a bear.

00:56:05.740 Well, he's not really running against a bear.

00:56:10.440 Oh, now we'll do a poll in which nobody's running against him.

00:56:16.140 But there are people running against him.

00:56:18.420 Well, now we'll do a poll in which it's just a one-on-one matchup. 0.98

00:56:23.480 You might as well do the fucking bear because it's not a one-on-one matchup. 0.98

00:56:28.040 Why would I even look at that? 0.99

00:56:29.480 So let's forget the two-man race statistics.

00:56:35.900 In a three-person race plus, Trump's lead is sourced at nine points in Arizona, 14 in Nevada,

00:56:44.260 and stayed the same around eight points in Georgia.

00:56:48.080 Now, I remind you, that's not enough.

00:56:53.040 Anything short of a double-digit lead in all of the swing states,

00:56:56.840 or at least enough swing states, isn't enough.

00:57:01.860 Just look at the Stormy Daniels trial. 1.00

00:57:05.560 Remind yourself, it's the same fuckers who are going to run the election. 0.99

00:57:11.940 If you're looking at the Stormy trial and you don't see anything that looks legal or appropriate, 1.00

00:57:17.780 same people are going to run the election.

00:57:19.980 Again, you're going to have to win by double digits to squeak by

00:57:24.980 because the cheat's going to be in just full, full force, in my opinion.

00:57:31.920 Trump has a new video and says we will not comply. 0.61

00:57:38.720 He's saying that the left-wing lunatics are trying to use bird flu to rig the 2024 election.

00:57:47.800 And he's saying that if they try to put mandates on to try to change the election results,

00:57:53.700 because that can change the mix of people who end up voting,

00:57:56.020 he says that we will not comply with mandates.

00:58:01.340 We will not comply.

00:58:03.160 How much do you love that?

00:58:06.420 It's perfect.

00:58:08.180 I'll tell you, I don't know who exactly is advising Trump this time,

00:58:14.700 but my God, it's just perfect.

00:58:18.280 This is one of the biggest untold stories.

00:58:20.760 The biggest untold story is that Trump has been pitch perfect.

00:58:26.960 And you don't notice it because there's no flaws.

00:58:30.560 The reason you don't notice that his messaging is so good this time around is that it's flawless.

00:58:37.660 This is flawless.

00:58:39.560 Here he is again making you think past the sale.

00:58:42.800 He's making you think what you will do when they cheat.

00:58:47.040 Think about that.

00:58:47.980 He's not telling you to think about whether or not they'll cheat.

00:58:53.400 He's making you think past the cheat to you will not comply with the mandates.

00:59:00.180 He's putting it out there that there's no way they can win unless they cheat.

00:59:04.760 Is that good for him?

00:59:06.660 It's perfect.

00:59:08.660 It's perfect.

00:59:10.460 Yeah.

00:59:10.960 And my God, he's just been so good.

00:59:14.360 Good campaigning.

00:59:15.420 I think the best ever, really.

00:59:16.780 I think I could put that that marker down that his current campaign from jail, not jail, but from court, from court.

00:59:29.280 If you add his messaging, his videos, the, you know, the rallies that he can do when he has time, if you put it all together.

00:59:35.660 It's the best presidential campaign of all time.

00:59:40.600 Probably.

00:59:42.180 And I don't think you'll ever get the credit for it because that's just not the way it works.

00:59:46.880 It might be the best of all time.

00:59:50.020 Obama was good.

00:59:51.380 And Bill Clinton was also great.

00:59:53.880 So, I'm talking about Reagan, of course.

00:59:57.060 So, I'm talking about a very high standard.

01:00:00.280 And I think he crossed it.

01:00:03.600 Anyway, Biden is saying the polling is wrong.

01:00:06.440 So, the Democrats are also priming you for the steal, except they're doing it the other way.

01:00:16.960 So, Charlie Kirk is pointing out in a post that Attorney General Merrick Garland, he's referring to a video, flanked by W.A.G. Lisa Monaco and FBI Director Chris Wray,

01:00:29.100 gives an update on how the Election Threats Task Force has, quote, accelerated its work.

01:00:36.380 The Election Threats Task Force has accelerated its work.

01:00:40.260 Now, why do they need to work so fast or so hard to protect an election which has already been so protected that we don't even have any questions about 2020?

01:00:50.560 Hmm.

01:00:51.120 Seems like two things and complete opposites.

01:00:54.020 And they're trying to make you believe both.

01:00:56.080 They're trying to make you believe opposites.

01:00:58.600 Hmm.

01:00:59.580 And then Charlie Kirk goes on.

01:01:01.480 He says, last week, Secretary Mayorkas announced that DHS is working with the FBI and ramping up with intensity to respond to the, quote, election threats, including, quote, far-right extremist activity and to combat spreaders of disinformation.

01:01:18.520 Huh.

01:01:19.700 Spreaders of disinformation.

01:01:22.080 What do you do when you hear that phrase?

01:01:25.720 Well, if Mike Benz has taught us anything.

01:01:28.020 If you're fighting the spreaders of misinformation, you're really in the business of creating misinformation and stopping real information.

01:01:37.020 Will you also stop some misinformation?

01:01:39.660 Yes.

01:01:40.600 Yes, you will.

01:01:41.280 Your net will get some real misinformation, too.

01:01:43.580 But that's not the point of it.

01:01:46.560 Nobody believes that's the point of it.

01:01:49.320 The point of it is to turn off the voices they don't like, boost the voices they do like, and to rig the election.

01:01:55.680 And Joe Biden said last week that Trump will not accept the results of the election, despite Trump being ahead in the polls.

01:02:05.340 And Biden is trying to tell us that the polling is wrong.

01:02:10.740 So here's the setup.

01:02:13.240 He's going to tell you the polling is wrong.

01:02:15.880 That Trump's not really up by 10 points or whatever it is by then.

01:02:20.020 Then they'll steal the election.

01:02:22.540 And then Trump will claim it was stolen.

01:02:25.140 And people will act, you know, act out their beliefs.

01:02:28.140 And then he'll put them in jail.

01:02:31.440 It's very clear what the plan is.

01:02:34.860 He's going to find ways to just jail everybody who complains when they steal the election.

01:02:39.160 And they're just going to say the polling was wrong and gaslight us. 0.99

01:02:45.040 Now, would I have said that this is likely to happen if I were not watching the Stormy Daniels trial right in front of my fucking face? 0.99

01:02:55.620 Probably not. 0.99

01:02:57.220 Probably not.

01:02:58.820 But when you're doing the Stormy thing in front of me, I do believe that they are planning to rig the election.

01:03:04.800 I do believe that they're gaslighting you by saying the polls are wrong and that their excuse will be, oh, the polls are wrong.

01:03:12.800 And why is he complaining?

01:03:14.160 We'd better put him in jail.

01:03:17.460 Right in front of your face.

01:03:23.740 CNN had an episode, Van Jones and some other folks.

01:03:28.140 Talking about losing, how the Democrats are losing, or Biden, is losing the young black Hispanic voters.

01:03:34.740 And they note that Trump has had 20% black support in polls, which would be the most of any Republican since the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

01:03:47.760 That's right.

01:03:49.640 Trump is on the verge of breaking modern records for black support. 0.85

01:03:55.300 And they note that he's losing the young, and Van Jones says he's losing the young because they don't seem to have a pathway for success.

01:04:11.820 If you're young, you don't have a pathway for success.

01:04:15.660 Is that true?

01:04:17.960 Didn't they tell us that the employment situation is great?

01:04:21.440 So if you're getting out of college, the Democrats are saying you're getting out of college when the employment is great.

01:04:31.780 So just because of the inflation, they can't make it work.

01:04:37.280 So Biden's inflation is really the only thing that's keeping people from succeeding, because they can definitely get a job.

01:04:46.560 I mean, we have close to full employment.

01:04:49.080 And if you have a college education, you don't think you could get a job?

01:04:53.500 Of course you could. 0.96

01:04:55.300 Unless you graduated from Columbia or some shithole like that. 0.98

01:04:58.760 So, but there's a better story here. 0.88

01:05:04.280 All right, so they're losing the using.

01:05:06.860 So this is CNN's frame.

01:05:09.700 The Democrats are losing black support, Hispanic support, and young people.

01:05:16.340 What are they not saying?

01:05:19.600 What's the dog not barking?

01:05:24.180 Do you notice they don't mention gender?

01:05:28.760 It's the men.

01:05:30.540 The men are the ones who are leaving the Democrat Party. 0.98

01:05:33.840 The men who are young, the men who are black, the men who are Hispanic.

01:05:39.020 Now, they're women too. 1.00

01:05:40.700 But the big picture, the real story, if they were not lying to you, is that men are abandoning the Democrat Party.

01:05:49.120 Do you know why they want to tell you that it's these groups, which is bad enough?

01:05:53.180 I mean, CNN definitely doesn't want to tell you that young people, black people, and Hispanics are leaving the Democrat Party.

01:05:59.920 But they are.

01:06:00.900 They're telling you directly.

01:06:02.280 Do you know why?

01:06:03.780 Why would they tell you that directly when you know it's bad for their own interests?

01:06:09.600 They're telling you that because the truth is worse.

01:06:13.320 The truth is that it's the men in those groups that are leaving.

01:06:17.140 Do you know why that's worse? 0.99

01:06:18.180 Because if that ever becomes the dominant frame that men are abandoning the Democrat Party because it's bullshit, the whole thing falls apart. 1.00

01:06:30.180 It's pretty obvious to most people that the Democrat Party is dominated by batshit crazy women. 1.00

01:06:36.940 Now, if anybody's new to my live streams, do you mind? 0.99

01:06:41.040 I'm going to take a moment to talk to the dumb people who are new. 0.99

01:06:43.940 This is only for the dumb people. 1.00

01:06:45.080 When I talk about a group like women or Hispanics, I never, ever, ever mean every one of them is the same. 1.00

01:06:58.020 I never mean that.

01:07:00.180 So if I don't say it every time, you don't need to say, are you treating it like, no, you don't have to do that. 0.99

01:07:08.680 Because my audience is actually people who are not fucking idiots. 0.99

01:07:13.920 So when I mention a group, they automatically know I don't mean every person in the group. 0.99

01:07:18.400 So if you're new, this will come as a big surprise to you.

01:07:21.720 So welcome to the group.

01:07:24.480 Welcome to sanity.

01:07:25.960 This is what it looks like.

01:07:27.080 So I'm going to make it my push to make sure that everybody understands that this is a male-female difference, not just a racial and age difference, mostly male and female.

01:07:41.980 And that if they were to understand the correct frame, they would know it's not division.

01:07:48.540 It's men who understand that the country is at risk.

01:07:52.460 Why is it men? 0.74

01:07:54.560 What do you think?

01:07:58.500 You tell me.

01:08:01.460 Why are men abandoning Democrats? 0.97

01:08:05.280 Well, first of all, they notice that they're batshit crazy and that they're pushing the LGBTQ plus and trans train way harder than any common sense makes sense. 0.99

01:08:19.760 By the way, I'm pro-trans, pro-LGBTQ completely. 0.84

01:08:25.300 But I don't need to hear about it all the time every day.

01:08:28.840 Like sometimes I like to think about other things.

01:08:32.120 And it's hard.

01:08:34.880 You're seeing also that men, I believe, are evolutionarily predisposed to be good at self-defense.

01:08:46.160 Meaning that if, you know, bad people attacked you and you were in a crowd, the crowd would automatically form so that the women would run to the back and the men would run to the front.

01:09:00.380 And through great danger, they would try to address the threat.

01:09:04.580 It's just natural.

01:09:06.160 Right.

01:09:06.660 The women don't run to the front of the fighting line. 1.00

01:09:10.260 The men do.

01:09:11.220 And we don't even think about it.

01:09:12.840 It's just literally automatic.

01:09:14.120 We would run toward the guy with the gun.

01:09:18.840 Right.

01:09:19.140 It's automatic.

01:09:21.680 So when we watch the Democrats destroying the country and opening the border, and I think the border is the number one thing, honestly.

01:09:29.060 It's the biggest thing.

01:09:30.300 There's no human regular male with regular testosterone who can look at that and say, that's okay.

01:09:36.720 We can let that go.

01:09:38.720 No, you can't let that go. 1.00

01:09:40.020 Now, if you've got a cock and you've got balls and you've got a little bit of testosterone, you will close the fucking border. 1.00

01:09:49.520 It's not really a conversation to noodle about. 1.00

01:09:52.640 It's not a debate. 1.00

01:09:53.820 You close your fucking border if you've got any male qualities whatsoever. 1.00

01:10:00.100 We're built that way. 1.00

01:10:01.260 And if you listen to the batshit crazy women about what the border shooters should not do, you're really making a huge mistake. 0.93

01:10:11.660 Now, are there things that women should be the dominant voice in? 1.00

01:10:15.520 You know, the reverse of this?

01:10:16.960 Yes. 0.99

01:10:17.920 And none of you agree with me, but I'll say it over and over again because I don't give a fuck what you think. 0.98

01:10:21.940 In my opinion, the question of abortion and the abortion laws should be primarily the voice of women for the same reason. 0.98

01:10:33.620 They've evolved to have this extra responsibility.

01:10:37.820 And the people who have the most responsibility should be the ones who have the most say.

01:10:46.080 That's just a good system.

01:10:48.200 Now, I'm not saying that you men shouldn't weigh in and have your opinion because our system allows that.

01:10:53.240 I wouldn't change it.

01:10:54.520 But the people who have the most influence should just be the women. 1.00

01:11:00.280 And by the way, I don't think Trump can say that because he's got too many men who care.

01:11:07.880 But I'd love to hear it.

01:11:10.020 I'd love to hear him say, let's take this out of my hands.

01:11:15.500 Because I think you're all happier with that.

01:11:17.760 Who wants me to be in charge of your bodies? 1.00

01:11:20.980 Nobody, right?

01:11:22.820 Imagine Trump saying that.

01:11:24.500 How many of you want me in charge of your bodies? 0.97

01:11:27.280 Because I took myself out of that business by making sure that I had the right judges who would put it back to the states.

01:11:35.380 Now, if you want to talk to the states, I think women should be the dominant opinion there. 1.00

01:11:40.780 You know, everybody gets a say, but I think we'd have a better outcome if women were the dominant voice of what becomes legal and what doesn't in each state. 0.99

01:11:51.620 Now, that is completely takes all the energy out of it.

01:11:58.080 Because it's hard to argue with somebody who wants to give you more control, isn't it?

01:12:04.140 Hey, stop controlling our bodies.

01:12:06.280 Oh, that's what I'm trying to do.

01:12:08.020 I'm trying to make sure I have no say on your body. 0.67

01:12:11.180 And, you know, if it's up to me, other men would have less to say in this than the women. 0.88

01:12:16.260 Because you're going to get about the same result, whether it was only women deciding or men plus women. 0.71

01:12:21.460 It ends up being looking about the same.

01:12:23.780 It's not going to be different.

01:12:25.560 But at least you feel more comfortable with it.

01:12:29.500 Well, the publication Public that Michael Schellenberger is involved with, I think he's a founder,

01:12:36.100 has a story today that says in 2021, the UK government said it had not weaponized the Army's Information Warfare Unit,

01:12:45.560 the 77th Brigade, against the British people.

01:12:50.140 Why would anybody weaponize the Army's Information Warfare Unit against their own people?

01:12:57.120 Why is that even a topic?

01:12:59.840 Oh, COVID, the pandemic.

01:13:03.400 Sound familiar?

01:13:04.160 Sounds a little like what happened here, isn't it?

01:13:08.100 He goes on.

01:13:08.760 Now newly released and never before reported documents.

01:13:13.580 Show that the government mislabeled accurate information as malinformation.

01:13:18.740 Hmm.

01:13:19.380 Sounds familiar.

01:13:20.760 And sent defamatory misinformation to the U.S. government.

01:13:24.860 Oh, thanks.

01:13:26.080 That's what we have allies for, huh?

01:13:28.840 Glad we have allies. 1.00

01:13:30.360 So they can send some bullshit to us. 0.97

01:13:32.500 Thanks, allies. 0.99

01:13:35.440 How did the Army get away with it?

01:13:37.200 Well, according to a new whistleblower, it had soldiers pretend that the British citizens

01:13:43.660 upon whom they were spying, upon whom they were spying, could perhaps be foreigners.

01:13:51.840 That doesn't even sound real, does it?

01:13:55.940 I think it is real.

01:13:57.700 But it's so corrupt and reminds you of exactly what happened in America, right?

01:14:04.460 So they simply pretended that they thought, oh, I guess I was wrong, but I thought these

01:14:11.280 British citizens, I thought they were some kind of foreigners.

01:14:16.080 No, of course they didn't think they were foreigners.

01:14:18.680 They were just trying to use some weasel to work around so they could use the military 0.93

01:14:23.460 against their own public.

01:14:24.760 Britain used the military against their own public. 0.65

01:14:33.380 Just hold that in your brain.

01:14:36.000 It's like my brain doesn't even want to entertain that.

01:14:40.900 Wow.

01:14:41.420 And as Michael Schellenberger points out in the article on public, that it was also the

01:14:54.080 intention of the Biden administration's near identically named disinformation government's

01:14:59.040 board of the Department of Homeland Security.

01:15:04.240 And the UK officials considered embedding civil servants in social media companies.

01:15:11.420 The UK officials considered embedding civil servants in social media companies.

01:15:25.100 My mind is so boggled right now.

01:15:27.600 I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, really?

01:15:29.660 Really?

01:15:31.620 We've heard so much bad behavior from our governments that you think you're to the end of it.

01:15:37.080 It's like, well, I'm glad we found out all the bad behavior.

01:15:42.480 Well, no, it's pretty deep oil, it looks like.

01:15:45.880 All right, well, let's talk about Biden and his weapons delay for Israel.

01:15:51.560 So you know the big story?

01:15:53.680 This is that Biden and Blinken are saying that they don't want to ship American weapons to

01:16:01.880 Israel to be dropped on civilian populations in Gaza.

01:16:07.120 Here's my current best take on this story.

01:16:10.940 It's totally fake.

01:16:13.920 Totally fake.

01:16:15.220 First of all, the percentage of munitions they're holding up is like 1% or something.

01:16:21.080 So I don't even know if it'd make any difference.

01:16:23.400 Like, it's not enough to change the war.

01:16:27.220 So what's the point of it?

01:16:29.960 If it's not going to change the fate of the war, and indeed, people argue that having access

01:16:35.640 to more precision munitions would be exactly what the Biden administration wants, which

01:16:41.040 is fewer civilian casualties.

01:16:43.100 So it doesn't make sense on a precision level.

01:16:46.440 It doesn't make sense on a percentage of the total bombs, because it's not going to stop

01:16:50.900 anything from happening.

01:16:51.740 It's not going to stop Israel from doing what it wants.

01:16:55.540 So why do it?

01:16:57.760 It's not popular domestically.

01:17:01.060 Why do it?

01:17:03.100 The only thing I can think of is that Biden is playing good cop, and that he wants to be

01:17:09.660 free of any accusations after the fact that he was part of the genocide, and that he could

01:17:15.720 say to critics, when they say, hey, you supported genocide, in their opinion.

01:17:22.700 And he will say, I never did that.

01:17:24.680 In fact, I tried to stop the weapons.

01:17:27.080 I tried to blackmail or, I guess, negotiate with Israel to stand down and don't go in there. 0.90

01:17:36.160 So I think he's just playing good cop to bad cop.

01:17:40.460 I don't think it has any real-world consequence, other than how they're framing their own party

01:17:46.240 as not the genocide ones.

01:17:49.460 And then compare that weaselness to Trump.

01:17:56.140 Trump says, Israel has a right to win their war.

01:18:00.320 I've been thinking about that all day.

01:18:03.180 Do you know how perfect that sentence is?

01:18:05.940 Israel has a right to win their war. 0.96

01:18:08.300 Persuasion-wise, it's just a perfect sentence.

01:18:14.100 Because what are you going to argue with?

01:18:16.680 That they don't have a right to win their war?

01:18:19.580 Now, it's a little, you know, like all persuasion, it's a little off of exact accuracy.

01:18:24.540 Because it's not about winning or losing.

01:18:26.340 It's, you know, some specific munitions, et cetera.

01:18:29.180 But just to put it in that frame, because you know if you were in that situation,

01:18:34.160 this is the way I do it.

01:18:35.700 That's not as good as the way he does it.

01:18:37.520 What I say, the long form, is if it happened to you, meaning your country,

01:18:43.460 you would act exactly like Israel's acting.

01:18:46.220 Or you'd want your government to be that way.

01:18:48.920 So that's sort of the long way.

01:18:51.280 But he says that they have a right to win their war.

01:18:54.000 That's the short way to say it.

01:18:55.440 And the better way.

01:18:56.500 And the cleaner and more persuasive way.

01:18:59.200 So good.

01:19:00.960 All right.

01:19:03.460 Well, apparently Russia...

01:19:04.920 Putin sometimes is so smart that it just makes me laugh.

01:19:13.920 So he's decided that the story is that a bunch of money from America that should have gone

01:19:21.500 into defending the northern part of Ukraine against Russia was just stolen by the rich people

01:19:27.860 in Ukraine.

01:19:29.960 Meaning that they were under-defended in a place they should have defended better.

01:19:35.560 What does Putin do?

01:19:37.980 He attacks.

01:19:38.880 So instead of just waiting it out, which I thought he would do, because it makes Ukraine 1.00

01:19:44.500 look even worse, he attacks where the story is going to be that they can't defend themselves

01:19:49.680 because they stole all the American money.

01:19:52.240 Now, that is like the smartest attack of anybody who ever attacked anything for any reason.

01:19:58.380 Because if he could just make us jabber about how Russia wouldn't be doing this if Ukraine 0.71

01:20:04.060 hadn't stolen our money, oh my God, that is such a win for him.

01:20:09.220 Such a win. 0.61

01:20:11.840 So, as I often say, Russia is a criminal organization and so is the United States.

01:20:20.100 In fact, most of the successful countries are criminal organizations pretending to be something 0.51

01:20:25.380 else, pretending to be democratic.

01:20:29.160 But I'll say it again.

01:20:30.760 And sometimes the criminal form of government is the most effective.

01:20:36.140 Because whatever you want to say about Putin, he's sort of making things work.

01:20:41.280 He seems to be a good operator.

01:20:43.100 I'm not defending him morally or ethically.

01:20:45.340 Yes, he's done bad things.

01:20:47.660 Everybody's done bad things.

01:20:49.280 But you can't argue with, you know, considering the cards he's dealt, kind of makes things work.

01:20:57.760 And I think the United States is a criminal organization and could be as efficient as this,

01:21:03.700 but we're not.

01:21:04.180 All right, ladies and gentlemen, that brings me to the conclusion of my remarks.

01:21:13.420 I'm going to now speak privately to the special people on Locals who subscribe.

01:21:19.640 You could be subscribing too if you were at scottadams.locals.com for 365 extra comics

01:21:30.400 that you don't see otherwise, and all of my micro lessons, 274 micro lessons to make you smarter.

01:21:36.620 But the Locals people get all of that and more. 0.99

01:21:41.280 And how many hours of podcasting did I do this year?

01:21:46.600 Like two and a half.

01:21:47.500 What's two and a half times 365?

01:21:51.700 I don't know.

01:21:52.380 That's about what I do per day.

01:21:54.200 Because I do an evening one as well for the Locals people.

01:21:58.340 Anyway, back to work.

01:22:00.400 Everybody on Rumble and YouTube and X, I will see you tomorrow.

01:22:06.140 Same place.

01:22:07.080 Locals, stay with me. 1.00
