00:01:58.620 something that you've never seen before. I guarantee you that this show will have at least a few surprises.

00:02:05.280 Now, some of you know what I mean. Some of you don't. But we'll find out how this goes.

00:02:13.320 Story number one. Trump's going to appeal his $454 million New York civil fraud case thing.

00:02:22.620 And his lawyers are going to say, and this is the Letitia James one where he allegedly did something

00:02:29.600 with no. Is this one where he overvalued some property and there were no victims and the bankers

00:02:37.820 said, yeah, we'd love to do business with him again. And for that, he owed half a billion dollars.

00:02:43.440 So, you know, the justice system.

00:02:45.380 So, his lawyers are going to say there were no victims and no losses. And if appellants' conduct

00:02:56.100 constituted fraud under whatever statute, then that word has no meaning, et cetera.

00:03:03.440 So, I don't know how this really works. I'm not sure how many appeals opportunities he would have

00:03:10.320 for this case. But doesn't it have to get out in New York before he has a chance? I mean, the whole

00:03:15.900 problem is that if you try Trump in New York, he's going to get convicted of anything. You can

00:03:23.640 convict Trump of murdering JFK. It wouldn't matter if there was any evidence. I don't think. I think

00:03:31.700 just New York jury is all it would take. So, basically, isn't the whole game to get it to

00:03:37.460 some higher court where it's out of New York, right? I don't know. Well, if it delays things,

00:03:45.520 or at least delays him paying that money, but I suppose there might be some interest if he loses.

00:03:52.300 I'm sure he's got some advantage in this. And at the very least, he can say it's appealed.

00:04:00.180 All right, we're going to have to talk about Biden's health. There are many so far unsubstantiated

00:04:05.640 stories. You're going to have to tell me in the comments if anything changes dramatically while

00:04:12.640 I'm talking, specifically about Biden's health. So, if you hear anything, just break into the

00:04:19.720 comments and I'll let you know. But the reports that are starting to sound credible, because it's

00:04:29.720 coming from multiple independent journalists, it's coming from multiple sources for each of them.

00:04:35.400 And it seems to be something like this, that when you believed that Biden got COVID in Las Vegas,

00:04:45.320 that what might have happened is something worse than COVID, and something that looked like a major

00:04:50.180 stroke, which caused the Las Vegas medical and police people to organize quickly, you know, on command.

00:04:59.700 And they were going to take Biden to John Hopkins Hospital. And then there was a change to taking

00:05:08.400 him to Air Force One. And now the story is, and I would say the credibility on this is, I don't know,

00:05:15.220 50 to 80 percent, it feels like to me. I don't think this is 100 percent sure what's happening.

00:05:25.520 But the idea was that it wasn't necessarily a full stroke. There's something that looks like a full

00:05:34.320 stroke. There's a lesser condition. Something called a transient ischemic. Ischemic?

00:05:45.220 I love saying words I've never said before out loud. Ischemic? Ischemic? I-S-C-H-E-M-I-C. I'm

00:05:55.520 going to say ischemic. That feels right. So if you have one of those, apparently it can look like a

00:06:03.740 stroke. But if it resolves itself in a few minutes, it's more obviously this, you know,

00:06:11.560 transient thing. So again, we don't know if any of this is true. This is just based on reporting that

00:06:17.620 comes from sources I take seriously, but we don't quite know.

00:06:22.140 And then the idea would be whether or not he ever had any COVID, we don't know. I mean,

00:06:29.120 that might have been a cover story. Maybe not.

00:06:31.120 And then it just keeps getting better. I don't know how they can make this story

00:06:40.260 seem any sketchier. I mean, everything about Biden and everything about the assassination

00:06:47.820 attempt on Trump have the same weird quality where every time you learn something, it raises

00:06:54.820 a bigger question. Like, I'm just going to make this one up, but this is how it feels.

00:07:01.180 It's like, and we found out, you know, the name of the sniper that took the shot and it killed

00:07:09.500 him. And you're like, oh, wow, great. Finally, we're getting some answers. What's his name?

00:07:14.380 Elvis Presley. Wait, what? You mean the real Elvis? The actual Elvis? Is Elvis his life?

00:07:21.220 How's he? And then you have to like, wait till tomorrow. And there's just always some answer

00:07:28.520 that makes you go, what? So my favorite one so far is that Biden called into the Wilmington,

00:07:37.940 Delaware campaign headquarters while Kamala Harris was there. And they put him on the speakerphone

00:07:44.100 and he gives a little talk, sounding quite good, sounding quite healthy. And, you know,

00:07:51.440 not, he slurred his words a little bit, but, you know, sort of baseline, you know, nothing special.

00:08:00.620 And what did people say? Did people say, oh, thank you. Thank you for confirming that he's alive

00:08:07.900 and well, and that he's very much behind Kamala Harris rising to power. So all of your questions

00:08:15.740 are answered, right? What? What? That didn't answer all your questions? People, you heard him

00:08:23.500 with your own ears. He was perfectly cogent. If I were to describe it, sharp as a tack. Sharp as a tack.

00:08:35.760 Healthy for sure. I mean, he's on the mend. His doctor said so the other day. He's like way better.

00:08:42.180 His symptoms are, we don't even remember the symptoms now. So long ago, he's so much better.

00:08:49.140 Yeah, he's doing a little, he's doing some yoga and he's riding his bike. We can't show you pictures.

00:08:55.820 No, no, no pictures. Now, do you have questions about this? Oh, oh, oh, you're, you're wondering

00:09:04.340 why in the age of video, a president of the United States who probably has access to Wi-Fi?

00:09:16.860 Why, why would he make a phone call? Knowing that everybody would listen to the phone call

00:09:23.460 and say something like, oh, why aren't you on video? Shouldn't there be at least a still photo?

00:09:32.200 Now, I get that you don't want to get out of your pajamas, but they couldn't comb your hair and put

00:09:37.500 a shirt on you and put you out behind the desk, you know, just for a still photo, nothing. And so

00:09:44.580 they managed to make it even worse because here's the question we're left with.

00:09:48.520 Was that really him? Yeah. The first thing I thought was, is this AI or, you know, some kind

00:09:57.720 of prerecorded AI thing, you know, where I can imagine somebody had a bunch of sentences

00:10:03.300 and then they had a button to push and they were all sort of generic responses.

00:10:08.620 And if you listen to it, everything Biden says could have been said as a response to almost

00:10:16.020 anything. So he does his, you know, little opening thing where he, you know, just talks

00:10:21.580 like Joe Biden for a while. So that doesn't require any interaction. But then there is a

00:10:27.020 part where Kamala later says, are you still there, Joe? And then he, he comes in with,

00:10:32.820 the, I don't remember if I wrote it down, but he just had some, some generic responses

00:10:39.220 like I'm always behind you kid. And I'm thinking that wasn't exactly what you'd expect in response

00:10:49.140 to that. And then there was another one that was like sort of a little bit generic. And

00:10:54.740 I thought to myself, did they actually plan and execute a recorded, maybe, maybe AI, maybe

00:11:04.100 something else, but a recorded piece, which they stitched together to make it look like

00:11:09.680 it was interacting. Now it did not sound like an AI voice to me specifically because at one

00:11:17.880 point there was some throat clearing and you kind of think they wouldn't do the throat clearing

00:11:22.860 or at least they wouldn't make it sound completely believable. And, you know, he sort of

00:11:29.740 slurred some words and I thought, well, would you do that if you were making a, if you were making

00:11:35.840 a fake and you wanted it to sound healthy, would you have any slurred words? And I thought, maybe

00:11:42.500 you might. And then I thought, I don't think there's any commercial version of AI that could

00:11:48.600 make a voice that good. You can still tell the AIs, but if there's a version where nobody can tell

00:11:56.200 the difference, you wouldn't know about it yet, would you? And don't you think that our CIA, for

00:12:03.280 example, would have had to for national security, already created close ties with all the major AI

00:12:11.280 developers in the US at least. And don't you think that they've already said to them, here's the deal.

00:12:19.600 We will let you operate. In other words, we won't be a problem. But if you come up with anything that

00:12:26.220 has genuine military importance, you tell us and we'll decide what to do with it. One of those things

00:12:34.460 would be perfect AI voice copying. Because at the moment, you can still kind of pick it out.

00:12:43.780 What if it were perfect? Like what we heard? The Biden recorded sounded to me perfectly like his

00:12:51.900 voice, like it would be hard for me to imagine it was AI. But do you think that the best AI company

00:12:59.220 hasn't made a perfect one yet? Or do you think that you couldn't take additional samples and just keep

00:13:07.700 working on it until it was perfect? Or maybe take a sound engineer who gets it almost perfect and then

00:13:14.580 tweaks out some pauses and stuff until it is perfect? If you were a state actor. So we are left with the

00:13:23.180 possibility that you cannot rule out that he was not the voice that we heard. It can't be ruled out.

00:13:31.760 Now, I can't tell you what the odds are. Is it over 50%? Probably not. I wouldn't put it over 50%. But

00:13:41.820 we're living in a world of zero trust. And so if you think that you're sure that was a real voice,

00:13:48.560 I don't know. I'd wait. So lots of questions to be answered. Apparently, Biden's scheduled for the

00:13:59.680 return today. Has anybody seen video that you know is him? Yeah. So I will remind you that

00:14:10.540 it's only citizens who are presumed innocent. The government is presumed guilty.

00:14:18.560 If they do something that looks this sketchy, you have to say, I think you're guilty. You're

00:14:24.760 going to have to show me some video. Your government has an obligation to prove itself and be transparent

00:14:30.340 all the time. When they're not transparent, your most reasonable explanation for why, given

00:14:38.520 that being transparent would be to their advantage if they didn't have anything to hide.

00:14:43.480 So a non-transparency has to be assumed as guilt, as a working assumption. You know, not

00:14:50.440 pick up your gun and send them to jail guilt. But as a working assumption, you should assume

00:14:55.480 they're guilty. That's the most reasonable way to play the odds. All right. So now the New

00:15:03.380 York Post and others reported that Biden was threatened with the 25th Amendment. Now, do you

00:15:10.520 think that's the right way to phrase that? Because, you know, you could tell this Biden story as a

00:15:17.720 coup and it would fit every definition of it. And I wouldn't disagree with you. It does look like a

00:15:25.300 coup. It looks like non-elected people are deciding who runs and it could get worse. But if he is

00:15:34.300 genuinely degraded, you know, you can say it's bad that we got to this point. But once you get to this

00:15:41.060 point, is it really blackmail or threatening to say you're going to do a 25th Amendment? Or is that

00:15:49.160 more just like information? Because if you're literally going to do the 25th Amendment because

00:15:55.740 you just don't have any choice, he's just that gone? Would you blame anybody for saying to him,

00:16:03.100 look, we just have to be honest, we have to do the 25th Amendment if you don't quit? Is that a threat?

00:16:14.460 I think that's a judgment call, isn't it? So you could tell this story as people who may have done

00:16:21.120 terrible things in hiding his condition up to this point, may do terrible things in the future,

00:16:27.200 may be terrible people. But when you get to that point, when he is legitimately, you know, done,

00:16:34.480 I don't know that that's a threat. That's just sort of like trying to explain to him what the situation

00:16:40.260 is. So, but we don't know what kind of shape he's in. We'll find out.

00:16:46.320 The most suspicious thing is that Kamala seems to have wrapped up the nomination

00:16:53.500 in a very non-democratic way. She quite cleverly branded her potential opponents as vice president

00:17:02.900 picks, and she's already hired somebody to vet her vice president picks for the things she has not been

00:17:09.500 nominated for. Now, if that sounds to you like there's any possibility someone else is going to get

00:17:15.980 the nomination. I think you'd be wrong because she's already pulled in a gazillion dollars of 1.00

00:17:23.060 extra funding, like some record that we can barely believe, as in we do barely believe it, meaning there

00:17:30.780 might be some money laundering or other shenanigans involved because it's so much so fast. It's just

00:17:36.960 hard to believe. So now we know that the Democrats rigged the primary with Bernie Sanders back in

00:17:46.400 Hillary's time. We know that Biden's primary this year was rigged in the sense that nobody else could

00:17:53.780 run against him. And now this one seems to be rigged again because even though Obama said, hey,

00:18:01.540 there should be some speedy little mini primary. But other people like Jen Psaki even spoke of it as 1.00

00:18:09.700 nothing but a way to coronate the obvious choice, Kamala. And I think other people said, nobody's going

00:18:17.620 to take the job of jumping over the DEI hire, you know, if I can be crude about it. Because Kamala's race 1.00

00:18:27.600 and gender are largely why she is in the job and largely why she can't be replaced. So 1.00

00:18:36.160 it looks like she has clinched it and whatever they do from now on is just cover a story. Would you agree

00:18:45.720 that that's an accurate characterization? Whatever happens from now on is just a cover story.

00:18:51.160 Yeah. So they might do some kind of mini primary. You know what? Here's what I think is the most

00:18:59.920 likely outcome. The DNC will say, all right, you have two days to register to be a candidate against

00:19:08.640 Kamala Harris. And if you do, we'll have a series of debates and then the delegates will get to vote.

00:19:15.500 And then you know what will happen? Two days will go by and nobody will register.

00:19:24.260 And if anybody tried, they'd say, no, you don't want to register. Yeah. I was actually thinking,

00:19:28.740 I was thinking maybe I will. No, no, you don't want to register. No, I'm sure I do. I thought I'd

00:19:36.060 give it a run. No, you don't. No, you don't want to register. So that would be one way to play it.

00:19:45.500 Let's see. Let's see if we understand what the system looks like. Now, one of the things that is

00:19:51.700 fascinating about this past year is that with the help of smart people who help us understand what

00:19:58.540 the system looks like, I'm talking about your Glenn Greenwalds, your Michael Schellenbergers,

00:20:04.840 your Mike Benz, your Mike Cernoviches, your Jack Posabek, your Tucker Carlson's. You're starting to see a

00:20:14.420 picture of the machine. And I don't know if we see it clearly, but let me tell you what it looks

00:20:22.780 like. So that's all I can say for sure is that this is what it looks like. Is it real? I don't know.

00:20:32.740 Let's go to the whiteboard.

00:20:33.620 Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.

00:20:35.620 I've been visualizing my match all week.

00:20:38.120 She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her backhand side.

00:20:44.420 Good thing Claudia's with Intact, the insurer with the largest network of auto service centers in

00:20:49.200 the country. Everything was taken care of under one roof and she was on her way in a rental car

00:20:53.580 in no time.

00:20:54.460 I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.

00:20:57.920 But you got there on time. Intact Insurance, your auto service ace. Certain conditions apply.

00:21:03.300 When I found out my friend got a great deal on a wool coat from Winners, I started wondering,

00:21:08.640 is every fabulous item I see from Winners? Like that woman over there with the designer 0.90

00:21:14.120 jeans. Are those from Winners? Ooh, or those beautiful gold earrings? Did she pay full price?

00:21:20.260 Or that leather tote? Or that cashmere sweater? Or those knee-high boots? That dress? That jacket?

00:21:25.420 Those shoes? Is anyone paying full price for anything? Stop wondering. Start winning.

00:21:31.200 Winners. Find fabulous for less.

00:21:41.200 If we can get this lighting just right, this will be amazing. All right. I have to angle

00:21:48.900 it a little bit because of my lighting issues. But here's what it looks like. It looks like

00:21:56.160 there's some group of people in power. We don't know exactly who. But almost certainly

00:22:01.080 it would include intelligence people. Now, not necessarily all of them employed by some

00:22:08.940 intelligence agency. It might be ex-members who are still affiliated. But some group of

00:22:14.320 people who have enough power that they can blackmail a handful of billionaires who are the

00:22:21.020 primary funders of any candidate. Now, have you noticed that a lot of the people who are the

00:22:27.580 biggest billionaire donors, especially on the Democrat side, appear to you suspiciously like

00:22:33.980 the most blackmailable people you could ever think of in your life? Now, I'm not making a specific 0.81

00:22:39.560 accusation. I'm just saying, huh, if I were to try to pick people that I knew a little bit about,

00:22:47.500 but not a lot about, and it was my job to guess which of them would be more likely to be blackmailable,

00:22:55.260 I might end up luckily picking some of the people who are the biggest donors at the moment.

00:23:02.780 And I ask myself, why are other billionaires giant donors as well?

00:23:09.960 Let's say, I'll just take one example. Sam Bankman Freed. All right. So I could use him

00:23:15.500 because he's convicted. Do you think that there was ever anybody in any kind of intelligence

00:23:21.660 or power position who knew exactly how vulnerable he was? Maybe. Maybe they did.

00:23:31.980 Who knows? It's just suspiciously, it looks like billionaires either can be blackmailed for something

00:23:39.100 they may have done in their personal life. But I'm not sure you'd call this blackmail,

00:23:44.780 but you would assume that anybody who has a gigantic international business would need some people who

00:23:51.580 also have giant power to either not get in their way or help some things get out of their way.

00:23:59.180 So at some point, certain types of billionaires, I think it depends on what kind of business you're in,

00:24:06.940 they really need people in important positions to say yes, and it could mean billions of dollars for them.

00:24:14.620 In other words, they might get a gigantic multi-billion dollar contract if they give

00:24:20.540 10 to 100 million dollars a year to the candidate of the top people's choice.

00:24:27.580 Now, am I saying this is the way it works? I don't know. I'm saying this is the way it looks like it works.

00:24:34.780 I'm saying that the gears of the machine seem to have revealed themselves in this latest situation.

00:24:42.860 Because we saw that when I say in friends, I would include Pelosi as an in friend,

00:24:49.420 in Obama, Hillary Clinton. So they would be the in friends group. Now, they don't always agree with

00:24:56.300 each other on everything, probably. But collectively, they would be the ones that would be working with

00:25:02.300 the people who almost certainly blackmail on the people who are the biggest donors, in my opinion.

00:25:08.460 And they get to select the candidate, as we just watched them do with Kamala Harris,

00:25:15.180 because they said, Joe Biden, you'll never get any more money. And that was the end of it.

00:25:19.660 So you don't have to wonder who's in charge. The big donors just showed you that the machinery

00:25:25.900 revealed itself. And then, of course, the media belongs to the Democrats, so it can sell pretty much

00:25:33.820 anything. And if that model isn't good enough, if having the top secret people in power, blackmail big

00:25:41.980 donors to choose the candidate that they want, meaning the top people want, having the media sell

00:25:49.020 it, if that's not enough, they have a second method, they can rig the election. I'll give you

00:25:57.260 one. And by the way, everything I'm saying here is not to be construed as a fact.

00:26:02.540 I'm telling you what it looks like. Is that clear? I'm just saying this is what it looks like.

00:26:11.980 So Mike Cernovich was recently on Tucker's show. And I haven't watched it all, but I did see this

00:26:20.140 one quote. So this is Mike Cernovich explaining one of the potential risks of the upcoming election.

00:26:28.380 So Mike Cernovich. Nobody can know. Tucker asked him what's going to happen in the election. And Mike

00:26:35.900 says, nobody can know because the Democrats have all these tricks up their sleeves that people aren't

00:26:41.180 prepared for. For example, what they're doing now with motor voter registration is they're registering

00:26:47.340 illegal immigrants who come into the country and they'll just harvest those ballots. It's really 1.00

00:26:52.700 easy to do. We have 10 or 11 million people in it over the past couple of years on the Biden

00:26:58.620 administration. You register them all to vote. It doesn't matter because they're not going to vote.

00:27:06.780 So there's no voter prosecution. Oh, I didn't think about that. So you don't have to worry about the

00:27:14.460 voters getting in trouble because they're not actually going to vote.

00:27:19.820 So there's no voter prosecution and there won't be any record of voter fraud by them. But you have

00:27:26.140 all these names now in a swing state. Remember, the elections are decided not by popular vote. It's

00:27:31.740 decided by 50 to 100,000 votes in three to four states. So, and then he talks through how all you

00:27:39.180 need is small numbers to tip the election. Now, is that accurate? I don't know. I don't know.

00:27:49.340 But I'll tell you what's obvious. What's obvious is if the people at the top actually exist,

00:27:56.860 if this is a real concept, if they haven't figured out how to rig our election yet,

00:28:02.220 well, it's just a matter of time. It means they're not trying hard enough because these would be the

00:28:09.660 people who had all the skills and all the access and all the capability. So if they didn't rig the

00:28:16.220 election, but they were willing to do all this, how does that make sense? So if you accept that the

00:28:23.420 center part is reality, and again, I'm not saying it is, I'm saying it's just what it looks like.

00:28:28.940 If you accept that they would blackmail people to get the candidates they want and they're really

00:28:34.220 the power, then it also makes sense since they have all the tools they would need.

00:28:39.260 It would be trivial actually. And we still don't understand why there are electronic voting machines

00:28:44.300 at all. Like nobody can figure out, okay, it doesn't seem to be cheaper. It doesn't seem to be

00:28:51.180 more credible to the public. It doesn't seem to be faster. It doesn't seem to be less maintenance.

00:28:59.180 So there might be a reason that I'm not aware of, but I've been asking for years and nobody's ever

00:29:05.020 offered even an explanation. Never. Not once. Nobody has ever said, Scott, you idiot. Let me explain how

00:29:13.500 this works. You have to have the machines because, and then they tell me why. Never happened. Not even once.

00:29:20.940 Anyway, so if you imagine that the center part is obvious and we've seen it in action this week,

00:29:28.940 then it seems equally obvious that they would have the option for rigging an election,

00:29:33.820 whether it was ours or anybody else they got their mitts into. And then it also makes sense if you

00:29:41.580 believe that JFK was assassinated by members of the intelligence people, that it would be the same 0.81

00:29:48.380 capability, same people, same mindset, and that they would have the option to try to take out a candidate.

00:29:57.180 So what we witnessed

00:29:58.380 was something that looks exactly like this picture. Meaning that, is it true? Is that an accurate

00:30:09.820 picture of what's happening in the world? I don't know. I mean, I genuinely don't know.

00:30:15.100 But if I had to make a bet, you know, bet your life, I think I'd be leaning toward betting my life

00:30:28.540 that this is closer than whatever you were trained to believe. I'm going to make a little diversion

00:30:35.820 right now, just for fun. Robert Cialdini, who wrote the book Influence, talks about a study

00:30:45.740 where you could get people to change their opinions by asking them to write down the opposite argument

00:30:52.460 from their opinion. And then they would check back with them in a year and they found out that

00:30:57.260 statistically there were a lot of them who had changed their opinion. Even though they had received

00:31:01.820 no new information, they had just been forced to write their opinion. And what that shows

00:31:11.420 is that making somebody create a part of their brain, which is really a physical structure based

00:31:19.340 on your experience, you know, the physical brain changes. That's how you can remember anything.

00:31:23.980 There's something physically that's different. So if you make somebody write an essay that's the

00:31:30.940 opposite of their opinion, it starts taking up more real estate in their brain than their original

00:31:36.620 opinion. And it turns out that we're very much like AI. We're large language models. So whatever

00:31:44.700 pattern is most dominant in your brain, you think is your opinion. I hate to tell you, this is a

00:31:51.660 hypnotist point of view. You think it's your opinion because it's the thing you thought about the most

00:31:56.700 and has the most structure in your brain. It's not your opinion. It's just the thing that took up the

00:32:01.420 most space in your brain. It's just, it's like a machine. If you have more gears of the machine in

00:32:07.660 one direction, that's where you are. And then you put this rationalization on top of it that you changed

00:32:12.860 your mind for reasons. No, it wasn't reasons. Did you know that when in the OJ trial, when they said,

00:32:19.900 if the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit. And you said to yourself, wow, that's clever. And then experts

00:32:26.620 later, like me said, you know, it's been proven that rhymes are more persuasive. And you say to

00:32:33.500 yourself, oh, rhymes are more persuasive. But I'm here to tell you that the reason it's more persuasive

00:32:39.660 is that it takes up more space in your brain. In other words, the rhyme makes you repeat it,

00:32:45.420 makes you remember it. It hardens it into a physical structure in your brain.

00:32:50.700 So the next time you get asked, do you think OJ was guilty?

00:32:55.020 There's a structure in your brain that irrationally has been formed by that rhyme

00:33:00.540 because it repeated. And now you think he might be benefit of a doubt. He might be actually innocent

00:33:06.860 because that glove didn't fit and it rhymed and it took up space. So whatever you do to take up space

00:33:13.420 in somebody's head, convince them. Did you know that you can also persuade somebody by making them repeat

00:33:19.740 something? Even if they don't believe it. So if you say, I would like you every day to repeat 10 times,

00:33:29.340 I'm good at playing golf.

00:33:31.260 Probably it would make you convinced you were going to play in golf eventually. Even if your golf game

00:33:37.340 didn't improve, you would come back thinking, you know, the score is still the same, but I've had so 0.90

00:33:43.500 much improvement with my strokes that really, and you would say something ridiculous. And it would only

00:33:49.820 be because the repeating it every day created a structure in your brain that took up a lot of space.

00:33:57.340 Once you understand that humans and large language models

00:34:01.660 are the same, you will unleash a huge amount of ability to understand your environment

00:34:09.500 because you'll understand why people are doing what they do. It's what they've heard the most.

00:34:15.180 Now, you know those people at the top of that whiteboard?

00:34:18.620 Do you know what else they'd like you to do?

00:34:24.540 They'd like your children to stand up and look at the flag and put their hand on their heart

00:34:32.940 and pledge allegiance to the country. Do you know why?

00:34:38.460 Because they're building a structure in the child's head

00:34:41.020 so that their rational thinking will not be able to overcome the embedded pattern that they are going

00:34:49.260 to give their lives for the country. Are they giving their lives to the country? In a way.

00:34:57.420 But they're really giving their lives to their hypnotizers.

00:35:00.140 The people in charge have been overtly, consciously hypnotizing the public since the beginning of the

00:35:09.260 republic with different methods. Where you see repetition, such as standing for the national anthem,

00:35:17.100 that's the hypnosis. And where you see what you call the Marxists and the people trying to destroy the country,

00:35:26.940 where you see them taking down the past and dismantling history,

00:35:31.420 these people were slave owners, stop talking about them, take them off your money, etc. 0.94

00:35:37.420 All of the founders are part of that structure that got put in your head when you were little,

00:35:43.100 that made you loyal to your country. And so as those structures are dismantled,

00:35:49.260 and now when I think of George Washington, do you know what the first thing I think of is?

00:35:54.300 Slave owner. That's the truth. If you said to me, hey, George Washington, what's your first thought? 1.00

00:36:01.420 I would actually think slave owner first. I definitely didn't think that when I was a kid,

00:36:06.860 even though I knew it. I mean, I knew it as a kid, but I didn't think of it first.

00:36:11.100 So that's how the large language model that is your physical brain gets programmed. It's just

00:36:16.620 whatever they put in there the most. And they own the news. So the reason that the people on top

00:36:23.980 have to own the news, it's not optional, is that the only way to control the citizens is by

00:36:30.940 increasing the frequency of certain messages. And that's the world you live in.

00:36:36.540 And that's just one side of the whiteboard. It's getting wilder.

00:36:44.380 All right. If you watch Morning Joe, you saw that Micah, is that her name? Micah Brozinski.

00:36:53.580 Micah Brozinski. She's the wife of that guy, John, Morning John. Anyway,

00:37:02.860 Micah says that when you pronounce Kamala Harris's name wrong, you're a racist.

00:37:09.660 So I don't know. I think she's right. I think Micah Brozinski, I think she's got a point

00:37:20.220 there. That's super racist when you say somebody's name wrong. Anyway, moving on.

00:37:29.020 The Harris versus Trump polls. Apparently, Trump has a 2.5% lead based on 72 polls,

00:37:36.620 according to the Hill. Now, I think the polls are largely garbage at the moment, 0.97

00:37:45.020 because do you know what's about to kick in? 0.99

00:37:49.580 Chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug. Let's go back to the whiteboard. The people who picked

00:37:55.100 Kamala Harris controlled the media, you saw the media just flip in lockstep to tell you that Kamala 1.00

00:38:05.580 Harris was so awesome. And it's amazing you hadn't noticed till now. There must have been probably

00:38:13.180 some white guy, maybe Joe Biden, who was keeping her genius under a bushel. She might be the most

00:38:20.300 capable person we've seen in, I don't know, generations. And by the way, Trump's way too old.

00:38:26.540 Are you kidding me? Would you even consider putting an old man into that office? What are you talking 1.00

00:38:32.220 about, people? And they will say that stuff until 49% of the country thinks it's true. And they've

00:38:43.820 really seen the truth there. Because Democrats are largely large language models. And all they need

00:38:54.060 is repetition. And they will become whatever they need to become. I think that Trump's confidence in

00:39:04.940 debating Kamala Harris might be for show. You know, confidence is a good thing to show. But I don't

00:39:14.540 think that Trump can beat Kamala Harris in a debate. I guess I'll just say it directly. I don't believe

00:39:23.340 that Trump can beat Kamala Harris in a debate. Because remember, a debate is not about who did the best

00:39:30.380 best by some objective standard. Who won the debate will be what these people say, the media.

00:39:41.100 So if the media says, well, that was a, that was total destruction. That Kamala Harris, I, we,

00:39:48.220 you know, we told you, we told you, she was always a genius. And you just hadn't seen it until now.

00:39:53.820 But now, she tore apart Trump, she made him look like a fool. And if I don't mind saying, 1.00

00:40:00.460 his age was showing. He seemed a little chaotic. He's got a lot of chaos. Seemed racist. And I think he

00:40:10.620 slightly mispronounced her name once. And, you know, if you happen to be the person who allegedly called,

00:40:17.660 you know, Nazis find people. And you said, Kamala, just not exactly the right way. That's obviously

00:40:24.620 racist. And she won that debate. Now, you might say to yourself, Scott, that's not true. Because

00:40:34.620 both sides knew that Biden lost the debate. That was the most special case in the world.

00:40:42.780 When it's so bad that it would just be laughably ridiculous to say that Biden won when he could 0.62

00:40:49.820 barely function. That's not what we're looking at. We're looking at a woman who will reliably remember 1.00

00:40:57.900 the, the pushback on each topic. She will do her homework. And she will know that when he says

00:41:05.820 on this topic, she doesn't even have to address it directly. She can just say the things she was

00:41:10.460 going to say on that topic. She'll say it with emotion that the news will say was amazing.

00:41:16.700 And they will declare her the winner. Now, you might say to me, but Scott,

00:41:22.860 Fox News is going to say Trump won. Of course. Of course they will. And I might even say that myself.

00:41:31.820 But it won't matter. Because everybody on Fox News was going to vote for Trump anyway.

00:41:36.460 So no votes gained. But can you imagine how the entire conversation changes if they say she's not

00:41:46.780 only ready for office now, she just beat an ex-president, one of the best persuaders we've 1.00

00:41:52.700 ever seen in a debate. And that's coming. What's coming is a, a knockout story that she, she completely

00:42:04.460 annihilated the best persuader we've seen in generations. We've never seen anybody with that

00:42:11.100 kind of a performance. Maybe the best performance we've ever seen. Might possibly the best debate

00:42:16.220 of all time, just right there. And they'll have tears in their eyes. And they'll say how they love

00:42:23.500 her. They love her. I love her. I love her. All right. Have you noticed that Kamala Harris looks like 0.98

00:42:36.540 at least two people when she's being her prosecutor self? As her supporters say, she is awesome. And she 0.94

00:42:44.940 seems on target. And by the way, the reason that I originally thought that she would become Trump's

00:42:51.980 biggest competitor back in 2018, I was saying that, is because I'd seen her grilling people 0.94

00:42:58.300 in a congressional setting. And I said to myself, wow, you're pretty good at that. That was some good

00:43:04.380 grilling. And then she had the, you know, the DEI check marks. So I thought, well, if you put the DEI

00:43:11.260 check marks there and she can look that good in public, that's actually a strong package. I can see 1.00

00:43:18.220 why she would go all the way. So that's why I predicted that she would be the, you know, the big

00:43:23.820 competitor. And it turned out to be Biden instead. But you've all seen the videos where she's acting goofy. 1.00

00:43:32.940 And it's almost like a different person, isn't it?

00:43:39.180 It feels like almost a different person. I'm going to tell you an experience I had where I learned how

00:43:44.220 to identify this. Some years ago, I had a girlfriend who is a chef, and she liked to cook for me while I

00:43:54.940 was finishing work before dinner. And before dinner, we'd have a delightful, you know, time hanging out.

00:44:05.340 And then I'd do some work. She'd do some cooking. And then we'd meet for dinner. And she was just an

00:44:13.900 asshole. And I think I was talking to you for, you know, two hours before dinner. And you were just the most 1.00

00:44:22.220 delightful person, friendly. Now everything I say, you're like challenging and throwing it in my face.

00:44:28.220 And so anyway, the long story is, it turned out that she was guzzling my vodka and my, that I used

00:44:35.420 to have, don't have it anymore, used to have in my refrigerator while she was cooking. So by the time

00:44:41.020 I saw her, she was a different personality. Now, that's when I learned, and it took a long time to

00:44:47.980 figure out what it was. It was months before I deduced it. But it turns out that when I look at

00:44:56.140 Kamala Harris, that's what I see. I see two different people, and one of them looks drunk to me.

00:45:04.220 Now, in her case, I don't think she gets drunk angry, or at least what we see is drunk laughing and

00:45:10.380 drunk. I love my school buses. And, oh, there's Venn diagrams. And, you know, the

00:45:17.900 unburdened by Wilders Band. Although that one maybe isn't drunk. I think she just likes saying that.

00:45:25.980 So I think the biggest story is going to be find out that she has a drinking problem. You want 1.00

00:45:31.100 another hint on that? I'll give you another hint. 92% of Kamala Harris's staff left in her first three 1.00

00:45:37.980 years as vice president. I think I saw a Molly Hemingway post on that. And that's the highest I've

00:45:46.140 ever heard. I mean, have you ever heard of anything like that? And here's my hypothesis. Oh, and also,

00:45:55.260 there was an interview by Simone Sanders was on that morning show, Morning John, with Micah Brozinski.

00:46:04.700 And Micah was asking Simone about what she thought about Kamala Harris. Now she worked for Kamala Harris.

00:46:15.740 Not at the moment, but she used to work for her. And so you'd expect that, you know, one of the 0.99

00:46:20.860 most important boosters of Democrats, you know, somebody who's worked on their campaigns, I think,

00:46:27.180 with Bernie Sanders at one point. And Simone, instead of saying anything about Kamala Harris,

00:46:33.100 she instead talked about how great Biden was and how, you know, selfless it was for him to step down.

00:46:41.740 Now, it seemed a little obvious to observers that she was avoiding the question. She used to work for

00:46:49.420 her. She's a Democrat. She wants a Democrat to win. Here's what I think. I think that

00:46:57.980 the staff got along with Kamala, except when she was drunk. That's what I think. I think that she may

00:47:04.700 actually be known to the staff as an angry drunk. And I'm just speculating, but the the hints are all

00:47:12.620 there. The strong hints. So if I were on the team who wanted to beat her in the election, I would be

00:47:19.900 looking for her ex-staffers. And I'll bet you you could find at least one of them who would dump it 0.99

00:47:25.740 all. Because if Simone Sanders wasn't even willing to put in a kind word in the place where you were 0.99

00:47:32.300 really, really expected to put in a kind word, I don't think she's alone. I don't think she's alone.

00:47:40.300 And if you find out what that's all about, that might be quite important.

00:47:47.100 All right. Well, here's the here are all the arguments that the Democrats are making about

00:47:52.060 Trump at the moment. Searchlight Pictures presents The Roses, only in theaters August 29th.

00:48:39.200 With Grey Goose, we invite you to live in the moment and make time wait. Sip responsibly.

00:48:44.960 Let's see if you can find what they have in common. See if you see any pattern here.

00:48:59.360 So they say Trump's going to steal your democracy. He's going to implement Project 2025 that's got all

00:49:05.120 kinds of extreme, extreme things in it. He's only in it for himself. He's a cult. He's a sex offender,

00:49:13.280 and he's a felon. Now, how in the world can Democrats sell those things? Do you see what's 0.98

00:49:21.600 missing? Does anybody see what's missing? He's not experienced. That's not up there,

00:49:29.120 because he's clearly very experienced. He has an unsuccessful track record.

00:49:38.080 You'd think that would be up there, if that's their claim.

00:49:41.600 Okay. His policies for the future are bad. Where's that?

00:49:52.000 Is there? Oh, yeah, the age. The age, that's the funny one. Now, do you know what to steal their

00:49:57.840 democracy means when they have to give examples? Here are some examples. There are a few more that

00:50:03.520 were as dumb as these. He wants you to be able to own a gun. That's stealing your democracy. 1.00

00:50:10.960 Do you understand why? Because if you're allowed to own a gun, then you might use that gun to go

00:50:17.760 take somebody's democracy away, their freedom, because you would rob them or shoot them or something.

00:50:24.800 So, allowing people to do what the Constitution says they should do, have a gun, is one of their

00:50:31.440 examples of stealing democracy. Do you think the other ones are better than that? They're not.

00:50:40.080 They're as dumb as that. I think one of them is women's reproductive rights. 1.00

00:50:47.360 Trump has already said he doesn't want to do any federal thing about that at all.

00:50:51.200 He literally wants to be uninvolved in it. So, he's going to steal your democracy by being as

00:50:57.680 consciously and actively uninvolved as he could possibly be and being opposed to the things that

00:51:04.720 you're worried about. So, that's what they're complaining about. They don't have anything that

00:51:11.680 he says he will do that they're worried about. Remember the first time he ran? They complained about the

00:51:20.320 things he said he would do, like close the border and stuff. And then he did it, and it turned out

00:51:27.040 that was better than not doing it. So, they have to make up these weird little tortured things.

00:51:34.720 Oh, the other one was discouraging people from voting. That's how he's stealing your democracy.

00:51:42.000 Have you yet met that person who got discouraged from voting?

00:51:46.080 Has anybody met one? Has the news ever done an interview with somebody who was discouraged from

00:51:51.280 voting because they couldn't get an ID? There's still not one example in a country of

00:51:58.560 350 million people. Well, voters would be, what, 150? But they can't find one example

00:52:06.400 in one of the main pillars of stealing your democracy. All right. Project 2025. He's got his

00:52:16.480 own thing that's like agenda 47, I think. He says, this is what I'm going to do, and it's not in that

00:52:24.080 document, and they're still using it. Who in the world runs complaining about the thing that somebody

00:52:32.640 says they're not willing to do? I've never seen that before. How about he's in it for himself?

00:52:41.680 I think they might be saying that less after watching Biden hanging on, but did you notice

00:52:47.680 what they all said, all the Democrats said immediately when Biden resigned?

00:52:53.040 They immediately said, instead of saying he was so selfish that he hung on too long,

00:52:58.800 which is what we all observed. What we all observed is that he was too selfish and he hung on too long.

00:53:06.160 That's what it looked like. But as soon as they forced him, probably, into resigning,

00:53:13.120 they turned it into, oh, he is so selfless. He's like George Washington giving up power,

00:53:20.400 because their attack on Trump was that he's in it for himself. And they had to change the story

00:53:26.800 about Biden who looked like he must have been in it for his family or himself or something.

00:53:32.320 And they had to immediately make sure everybody said the same thing. Oh, what a patriot. Only

00:53:40.400 somebody like a great founder could do something like that. Then the other one that's funny is that

00:53:49.120 Trump supporters are a cult. Now, do you know how they get away with that?

00:53:55.040 They just make words mean different things and definitions mean different things than they mean.

00:54:00.320 So what they mean is he's really popular and people like him a lot.

00:54:05.360 Now, let me test you, since I think almost all of you are Trump supporters watching this right now.

00:54:12.720 If Trump told you to murder your Democrat neighbor so that he could take full control,

00:54:18.640 how quickly would you do it? Would you be all over that? You'd be grabbing a weapon,

00:54:26.240 slaying the neighbor because your cult leader told you to? What does it mean to be a cult leader?

00:54:32.240 What does it mean to be a cult? People can't simply agree that they like a leader,

00:54:38.560 they like a set of policies and they're willing to fight for it and that they turn it into a cult.

00:54:46.480 To me, it's just another way to insult Trump supporters. Yeah. And to imagine that one is a cult

00:54:54.080 is a little crazy, a little crazy. Then there's the, you know, all the sex offenses.

00:55:01.840 Now that one's pretty sticky because every, every female, um, who's ever had any passing 1.00

00:55:10.240 association with sexual offenses is just going to be triggered by that. And there's probably no way

00:55:15.840 to change that. So you got a solid, I don't know, a huge percentage of the female population 1.00

00:55:22.800 who is just way too triggered about that. But if I were Trump or let's say a Trump supporter,

00:55:28.320 um, people ask me, how can you support somebody who's been convicted? They say, but that's not

00:55:37.200 the right word. Uh, just 10 out of 12 jurors in the most biased place in the world decided to punish

00:55:43.600 him because they didn't like him probably. Uh, so certainly the justice system didn't operate

00:55:50.320 where that was a finding. Um, and certainly that was political. So if you know, it's lawfare

00:56:02.240 and you know, it's political, you're two thirds of the way to understanding why it doesn't bother me.

00:56:09.280 But here's the final one third of why it doesn't bother me. Number one, Biden is as credibly accused

00:56:18.160 of things that are as bad. Now that doesn't make him true. It just means he's as credibly accused

00:56:26.880 of things that sound as bad. Now here's the final one third, which most of you would not be aware of.

00:56:34.160 Uh, and it's because most people who haven't been as canceled as me can't tell you.

00:56:38.480 Public figures, if they're male, have all been falsely accused of sex offenses. How many of you

00:56:47.760 knew that? That important male figures, like the famous ones, uh, the rich and famous ones,

00:56:54.160 they've all been accused of sexual offenses falsely. Now, some of them may have done actual

00:57:00.800 sexual offenses and I'm not defending that obviously. Uh, I'm saying that it's the most

00:57:06.080 common thing in the world. How do I know that? Because I've been accused falsely of sexual offenses.

00:57:12.880 I think everybody in my position has, uh, I've told you about the, the, the one that comes out

00:57:18.720 every few years. So there's somebody in Canada who's gets off remeds, I think, and calls my business

00:57:25.840 partners, you know, like publishers and syndicated syndication companies. When I had those, uh,

00:57:31.840 my restaurant, when I, when I owned restaurants, they would call my restaurant and tell a story

00:57:36.560 about me traveling up to Canada, uh, rifling through her computers, breaking into her house

00:57:42.800 and, uh, sexually molesting her. Now, if you just had some person call you and tell you that story,

00:57:51.040 you'd think, well, I think you did. And maybe my business partners did, but at least they called

00:57:57.200 me and told me it happened. And I said, oh, you know, she gets off her meds every three years and 0.97

00:58:02.080 says that I've never been to even the part of Canada she lives in. Now, have I ever heard of

00:58:11.040 anybody else being falsely accused? Yes. I can think of two, three, four, four cases off the top

00:58:21.120 of my head in which I know from the woman's side that she falsely accused somebody. Do you?

00:58:29.840 How many of you know somebody, a woman who has admitted to you in their own words, not your opinion,

00:58:35.600 their own words that they have falsely accused somebody of a sexual crime? It's shockingly high.

00:58:43.760 Now, is it as high as the number of actual crimes? I don't know. I don't know. But we live in a world

00:58:52.160 where false accusations are so common, but the regular public is not aware of it. The reason the

00:59:00.000 regular public is not aware of it is that if you're a public figure, the last thing you want to do is say

00:59:04.960 it in public like I just did. Right? So another benefit of being canceled. I can say anything I

00:59:11.280 want in public. So I'm going to tell you what not everybody knows. It's really, really common.

00:59:19.440 The higher you go in office, the more common it is to be falsely accused. You know, all that there's

00:59:26.240 some fund for settling these sexual accusations against members of Congress. And a lot of people

00:59:32.800 are saying we need to see that list and, you know, who's doing all the settling. Now, probably

00:59:40.240 there are some serious and real charges on that list, but I can tell you with certainty that some

00:59:46.880 of them are not real and probably just got settled because it was easier. So if you don't know the

00:59:52.960 percentage of real versus fake and then this one that comes out of nowhere with a bunch of suspicious

01:00:02.320 elements to it in the justice system itself, I think they had to change the statute of limitations

01:00:08.160 to make it stick and really sketchy stuff. Then I find that it's no more believable than

01:00:17.600 any other accusation against a famous man. And I say, just because a jury was convinced in New York,

01:00:27.360 that is not persuasive. A criminal trial, I think I might have been persuaded.

01:00:33.280 But it wasn't a criminal trial. It was just, do you think it's more likely it happened?

01:00:37.360 And then people use their bias. Because the question of, is it more likely yes than more

01:00:42.880 likely no? That really brings in your bias. It's like, well, look at all the other things I think

01:00:49.120 Trump has done. Why wouldn't he? Sounds just like him. Right? So no, he didn't have any chance of

01:00:54.640 getting a fair trial. So if he did those things, then he should be judged for them. But I don't think

01:01:02.000 I have any way of knowing. And so my decision process is that for both Biden, who is also

01:01:09.280 about equally credibly accused, I say, I don't know. I know that when I hear the accusations,

01:01:16.480 they sound credible. But I also know that false accusations would sound credible. So I give Biden a

01:01:24.960 benefit of a doubt. You've probably heard me not give him a hard time about, you know, similar

01:01:30.640 accusations. So it's never anything I emphasize. Because I just have a different view of how often

01:01:37.280 the fake accusations come. All right.

01:01:44.640 So, and then of course, they're going to say Trump's a felon. But the argument against that

01:01:49.120 is that they made him a felon. So the reason that he should be elected is to get rid of people who will

01:01:55.840 use lawfare to turn a person into a felon. That's how I would argue it. I'd say I'm absolutely a felon

01:02:03.680 because of you. And one of the reasons I'm running is to get rid of an administration that would lawfare

01:02:09.440 somebody like me to keep them out of office. The fact that I'm a felon is the indictment of the entire

01:02:16.880 broken machine. Here's how the machine works. First, they change, you know, then you just go through how

01:02:23.680 how the system is broken. Joy Reid called the selection of Kamala, which looks like a done deal,

01:02:32.560 as a Pelosi coup. So she's actually using that word.

01:02:37.840 Anyway, I think what happened was that Biden was threatened by the 25th Amendment. And the one

01:02:50.960 thing he had to agree to was to select or to endorse somebody who would keep the racial divide going.

01:02:58.400 Because I've got a feeling that the people at the top don't want you, well, the other side of the

01:03:02.480 board, the people at the top don't want you knowing that it's the rich and powerful that

01:03:07.440 are your problem. They want you to think it's each other. If you're watching this and you're thinking,

01:03:15.360 what's wrong with these white people? Or what's wrong with these other other people? 0.82

01:03:19.520 Maybe you should ask yourself who wants you to think that way.

01:03:23.440 If you realize that you're a large language model brain, ask yourself what content has been put in

01:03:30.160 to your patterns the most? And who did it? Was it the media that made you think about

01:03:37.360 race all the time? Why would they do such a thing? And so you're not thinking about something else all 1.00

01:03:43.440 the time, something that would be maybe more directly applicable.

01:03:49.120 Well, Eric Holder, I guess he's in charge of vetting Kamala Harris's picks.

01:03:57.040 And his law firm also does a lot of work in DEI audits to make sure big companies comply with DEI.

01:04:06.560 Let's see. Eric Holder is doing a selection for Kamala Harris. And his law firm is deeply into

01:04:16.240 making sure that DEI is functioning in every big organization. Who is he going to pick?

01:04:23.520 I think all the white people that were named as potential presidential candidates are probably

01:04:34.320 also thinking they're not going to be vice presidential candidates. But it might depend

01:04:39.360 entirely upon how it polls. So it might come down to whatever polls the best wins. So she might have

01:04:47.840 the option of a white guy in this case. We'll see. All right.

01:04:58.240 Let's talk about Cheadle. Director Cheadle of the Secret Service was grilled by Congress.

01:05:05.040 I noticed that representatives Luna and Mace

01:05:08.720 Worthy seemed to take the lead in attacking her, which was smart, because Cheadle is getting this

01:05:19.120 DEI accusations, you know, that she's a DEI hire. And I wouldn't say that there's direct evidence of that,

01:05:26.160 but it always has to be your top three suspicion in this case. And so having the

01:05:33.760 two of the strongest members of Congress who also happened to be female go hard at her was 1.00

01:05:41.440 probably your best play. I haven't seen anybody notice that they took the lead.

01:05:48.160 If they didn't take the lead, they were at least the most explosive, the most strategic,

01:05:58.320 and the most damning. So they did a great job. Anyway, I keep noticing that people who are not

01:06:09.840 answering questions are acting like they're under duress. And I swear, Cheadle acts like she's under

01:06:15.360 duress. She does such a poor job of defending herself that it looks like she's signaling that 0.98

01:06:22.400 she's being told what to do. Now, can I prove that? No. Would I bet my life on it? No.

01:06:29.920 It's just what it looks like to me. It doesn't look like a genuine person acting in a genuine way.

01:06:36.560 It looks like there's some force pushing her outside of her and that she's almost subconsciously

01:06:43.120 signaling it. I guess it's the hypnotist in me. The hypnotist in me says that if she's being forced,

01:06:50.560 she would choose different language than if she were doing it voluntarily. So if you weren't paying

01:06:56.640 attention to the exact language choice, you'd say, well, you know, she's just saying answers to

01:07:02.720 questions. But if you look at the language, it's so poor and you know that she couldn't possibly be 0.92

01:07:08.720 that poor at communicating that it just signals that her subconscious is sending you a separate

01:07:14.800 message. So that's the hypnotist frame on it. Anyway, some bipartisan task force is going to

01:07:23.760 look into it. I don't know if I trust any of that. And the biggest story that nobody wants to talk

01:07:30.000 about is that the debt crisis is coming and there's no way to pay off the debt crisis. Does anybody know,

01:07:37.360 should we do what Kim.com says and buy gold? I don't know if that's really a good idea,

01:07:43.680 but I don't know if it's a bad idea. Should you get Bitcoin if you think the dollar is going to be

01:07:49.200 worthless or does Bitcoin become less valuable to somehow? What about real estate? Is the reason

01:07:58.320 that people like BlackRock are buying all those homes is that they think real estate will survive

01:08:04.160 the crash better? You know, because at least it's physical, you know, paper money can disappear,

01:08:09.840 but land is still land. So someday it might be worth something again. I don't know. But I would like

01:08:17.920 to see why our candidates are not being asked about this. Now, this is a case where I believe that

01:08:26.720 there would be an enormous advantage for Trump if asked the question what to do about the national debt.

01:08:33.680 Have you noticed? And I'll bet you in the next debate, nobody asked the question.

01:08:38.400 Now, the national debt is our number one problem. You all know that, right? If you made a list of all

01:08:44.720 the problems in the country, it would be all the other problems in the country put together

01:08:50.560 would be a distant second to the national debt. Do you all know that? We only have one problem.

01:08:57.280 A friend of mine used to say that if you can solve it with money, it's not a problem.

01:09:07.360 It's not a problem. If you can solve it with money, it's not a problem. The one thing we can't solve

01:09:13.840 with money is the national debt. So it's our only problem.

01:09:20.080 Everything else altogether are things we wish were better, but they're not going to kill us.

01:09:27.280 Climate change isn't going to kill us. We're probably not going to run out of food.

01:09:31.760 I don't think we're going to get in a nuclear war. I think Ukraine will figure out a way to wind down.

01:09:38.160 I think the Middle East will always be bubbling, but maybe not much worse than it is. 1.00

01:09:44.400 I think the economy will survive. I think robots will figure out a way to make them work.

01:09:50.880 But the debt is unsolvable.

01:09:55.520 As far as I know, nobody's ever even suggested a solution.

01:10:01.360 So imagine if in the debate, the liars in the media, who obviously are trying to cover up this

01:10:08.560 problem, because they have to know it's the only real problem, they should ask the question,

01:10:14.960 what would you do about $175 trillion debt? Now, if they were being honest, they'd say,

01:10:22.480 with the question, and nobody believes that you could grow the economy enough to make a difference,

01:10:30.000 what would you do? Because you want to take away Trump's first take on it. Because Trump just says,

01:10:36.320 I'm going to grow the economy. And by the way, I'll cut your taxes, and that will make more taxes

01:10:41.280 available. Do you know how little that would make a difference? Like if he doubled the GDP,

01:10:48.800 which isn't going to happen. But what if he did? Not even close. Yeah. No, nothing he says

01:10:55.280 will even be anywhere near an answer. But whatever Trump says on that topic

01:11:03.840 is going to be 100% better and more believable than whatever Kamala Harris says, because she doesn't 1.00

01:11:12.320 understand the topic. She won't be able to talk about debt. I don't think she understands it. And I'm

01:11:20.880 not sure anybody does, honestly, because the national debt is not like personal debt. That's

01:11:25.280 a whole different deal. But I think at least Trump knows where all the levers are.

01:11:33.200 If you at least know where the levers are, you can make a case that, okay, in the long run,

01:11:39.600 we're going to have to get our robots to lower our costs. Oh, here's what. Here's what Trump could say.

01:11:46.080 And the only way we can survive this is greatly lowering our costs, not just in the government,

01:11:54.400 but in your personal lives. Because probably the money will have to deflate.

01:12:00.640 So however much money you have now, the only way the debt goes away is your money is going to be

01:12:06.480 worth less. Your dollar is going to be worth 50 cents someday, maybe 10 cents. The challenge will be

01:12:12.880 to make sure that 10 cents or whatever you're left with can give you a high quality life.

01:12:18.960 And in the world of robots and AI, if you also have lots of energy, you would need, oh, by the way,

01:12:25.680 here's one of the biggest things in the world that just happened. China just successfully tested a

01:12:31.440 shutdown of a Gen 4 nuclear power plant. Now, if that doesn't mean, if you don't immediately get what a big

01:12:40.400 deal that is, you can't shut down a regular power plant without a meltdown. It'll say you turn off

01:12:48.240 the energy, it would melt down. And that's the big risk. But the so-called fourth generation,

01:12:56.400 and this is the first production one I've seen put into play in China, they did a controlled shutdown

01:13:03.440 where they just turned it off. And all it did was turn off. It worked. Now, this is a design that has

01:13:12.800 been talked about for years, but it just takes a long time for the engineering to catch up with the

01:13:17.280 science so they can actually build the thing. But then now they built it. They've proven that you can

01:13:22.560 build a fourth generation nuclear reactor. You don't have to wait for a fusion. So the solution

01:13:28.960 would be, if I were Trump, I'd say, here's the deal. We're going to need a bunch of fourth generation, 1.00

01:13:34.640 maybe some third generation power plants. We're going to make sure that we have some designs that

01:13:41.280 are approved by the federal government. We're going to make sure the federal government removes any

01:13:46.240 roadblocks. We're going to make sure that the waste is stored on site, so there's no extra

01:13:52.320 risks to the community. And we're going to build them like crazy because whoever has the cheapest

01:13:58.960 energy in the future wins. So we're going to make an energy race to lower our expenses so that our

01:14:06.720 cost of energy will be dropping, dropping, but we'll also have the best AI because you need the best

01:14:11.920 energy to get AI. We'll have the best electric cars, and we'll be able to, with completely voluntary

01:14:20.240 process, get more electric vehicles, but without telling you, you can't have a gas car. Eventually,

01:14:28.000 you're still going to want the electric vehicle because the cost of electricity with these new

01:14:32.640 energy plants will go down to almost nothing to power your electric car. But your gas is still going

01:14:39.760 to cost something because there's no way you can make getting gas out of the ground cheap, although

01:14:44.320 maybe the robots can. So these things are harder to predict than you think. All right. Anyway,

01:14:54.080 there was a study on UBI giving people $1,000 a month that just made them lazy and stupid. 1.00

01:15:01.040 That's all you need to know. Giving people money made them worse off, not better off. They weren't 1.00

01:15:05.200 even happier. My next idea is that if the Republicans want to be anti-abortion, they would be far more

01:15:14.960 credible if they also worked on something for adoption. And here's what I would suggest. I don't

01:15:24.240 think this is going to work for Republicans because they're so pro-family. And it would go like this.

01:15:29.680 There should be a second track for single women who get pregnant and don't want to be a mom. 1.00

01:15:37.280 In other words, there should be something that everybody knows about that you could say, oh, wow.

01:15:42.720 You know what? I'll give birth to the baby because the country needs babies, according to Elon Musk.

01:15:47.360 And he's right. We need more babies. And somebody is willing to put me up in a nice place.

01:15:54.240 I won't have to work for nine months and somebody will actually pay for my baby. In other words, I will

01:16:01.040 I'll come out ahead. Perhaps I will study a skill while I'm pregnant so I don't have to go to work

01:16:06.880 every day. Maybe I can just learn a skill so that when I'm done, I got paid for having a baby. I lived in

01:16:14.160 a nice place. I gave birth to life. I didn't have to go through an abortion. I learned a new skill.

01:16:21.840 And now I'm back better than ever. So to me, if Trump could come up with an alternate path,

01:16:31.200 that is not there's no pressure, no pressure has to be a free market. And you say, we want we want

01:16:38.720 abortion to go to zero. And here's how serious we are. And we want you to know that we think it's

01:16:45.120 murder. It has nothing to do with your freedom. Whenever murder is involved, freedom is, of course,

01:16:52.480 always in play. But we'd like to be as positive as possible, because I think Trump could sell that.

01:16:57.920 I think he could sell. We're trying to be the most kind, freedom giving. We'd like women who have a

01:17:07.200 baby, but no husband or the husband left or whatever. We want to make sure that they get 0.70

01:17:12.080 the maximum best life. If you're bringing a human into the world, you're not garbage like maybe other

01:17:20.000 people would say you are. You're a star. You're a star if you can bring a person into the world in 0.93

01:17:26.480 America. So we want to really help you do that. We want to celebrate you. And while our first choice

01:17:33.520 is that you be part of a family. First choice is that you're married. First choice is, you know,

01:17:39.440 you do the traditional family. But we realize that things happen. And once things happen,

01:17:45.200 we'd love to give you a better option than terminating the pregnancy.

01:17:49.680 I think that would just be a great argument to have in the public sphere.

01:17:59.040 Anyway, did you know that there's another study that says that loneliness makes you age faster and

01:18:08.480 die? Did you know there's another study that says being outside in nature, just 10 minutes makes you

01:18:14.800 healthier? How many times have I told you there's a new study on those two things? Going outdoors makes

01:18:20.560 you healthier immediately, especially bare feet, especially in the sun in the morning. You know,

01:18:25.840 that's the Hooverman thing. And loneliness especially you want to defeat. Now, I'm going to solve both of

01:18:31.840 those for you. Are you ready? You're President Trump. You say we have a loneliness epidemic in this

01:18:37.680 country. Here's what I suggest. Every night, eat dinner. And as soon as you're done with dinner,

01:18:44.720 walk outdoors and with the rest of your neighbors, take a walk. Because your blood sugar will go

01:18:50.800 immediately down if you take a walk. Going outdoors will make you immediately healthy. And walking with

01:18:56.480 your friends will give you some less loneliness. So organize with your neighbors that you'll pick a

01:19:02.880 time. Let's say it's 6 p.m. And at 6 p.m., you'll all meet after dinner and you'll just take a walk.

01:19:10.000 You don't have to walk the whole way. You can go halfway and come home. But you're going to meet

01:19:14.000 up with your neighbors. You're going to introduce yourself. You're going to have something to do.

01:19:18.000 The trick with loneliness is you have to have an organized activity with a common goal, which is a walk.

01:19:26.320 And it has to be people that you're going to see more than once.

01:19:29.680 You do not get invested in people you're not going to see again. So it's got to be repeated

01:19:34.320 exposure to the same pool of people for a common thing. That's how you cure loneliness.

01:19:40.240 If Trump said, I'm going to cure your loneliness, here's what you need to do. That would be amazing.

01:19:50.000 Organized walks after dinner. And there's some kind of metal that seems to be creating oxygen under the

01:19:56.560 ocean, which means that maybe oxygen didn't come entirely from photosynthesis, which means that

01:20:02.560 maybe there's oxygen in other places in the universe, which means maybe you can add some oxygen to Mars

01:20:09.200 without plants, if you knew what the chemical reaction was. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is

01:20:15.840 my show for today. I think you'll agree it's one of the finest shows you've ever seen.

01:20:25.600 Would you agree? Yeah, it was one of the best things you'll ever see.

01:20:29.520 And I'm going to go talk to the locals people in a minute. How'd I do?

01:20:40.160 We've got a secret. We're not going to tell you. All right. Thanks, everybody on YouTube and Rumble and X.

01:20:49.120 I'm going to say bye to you. We'll see you tomorrow. Same time, same place.

01:20:52.080 And I'm going to go talk to my local subscribers privately. Have a great day.
