00:00:00.000 that all you need is a cup or mug or a glass a tanker gel sir stein a canteen jug or flask a
00:00:07.360 vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join me now for the
00:00:12.080 unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day the thing that makes everything better
00:00:15.920 it's called simultaneous sip and it happens now
00:00:19.760 oh delightful spectacular orgasmic well my favorite story of the year
00:00:34.880 is that there's a woman who just woke up after a five-year coma
00:00:42.800 boy has she got some fun ahead i've been gone for five years has anything happened
00:00:49.760 yeah a few things happened since 2019 she's got some surprises coming well let's talk about some
00:00:58.480 of those that happened recently shall we well as you know uh in our perfectly normal world
00:01:04.560 the richest man in the world elon musk uh has been challenged to a physical fight by venezuela's
00:01:11.520 dictator maduro who allegedly won an won an election but the united states says no you didn't it was
00:01:18.720 cheating so it looks like the fight is on and he's maduro says i accept the challenge let's give it a try
00:01:26.800 but come here if i beat you i accept the trip to mars but you're going with me
00:01:34.480 okay apparently he's the there's a bet involved that if maduro wins he gets a trip to mars
00:01:42.720 well this just keeps getting better and better but now he's also claiming that the election
00:01:49.440 irregularities were caused by can you guess who do you think maduro is blaming for the election
00:01:57.440 irregularities in venezuela elon musk yeah he's decided that elon musk has hacked venezuela
00:02:05.760 he goes the attacks um that there was computer hacking to undermine the election he says the
00:02:15.200 attacks i'm sure were directed by the power of elon musk and then maduro goes on venezuela as i said
00:02:22.960 yesterday and today is facing domestic and international aggression from world powers and now
00:02:27.760 it is evident that elon musk is obsessed with the idea of taking over venezuela and ruling it from abroad
00:02:35.040 he is largely responsible for these attacks and acts of aggression
00:02:41.200 how weird would it be to be elon musk you know it's not weird enough that you're the richest person
00:02:46.800 in the world and you know your life is insanely interesting but you wake up and you find out
00:02:52.960 that you've been blamed for all the problems in venezuela
00:02:56.080 how could that be more fun imagine waking up and finding out that you've been blamed for the problems
00:03:04.720 in venezuela
00:03:08.560 there's nothing that can't happen today all right allergy is terrible
00:03:15.360 the u.s unemployment rate has jumped to 4.3 from 4.1
00:03:19.680 which kind of surprised me because i think the numbers economic numbers are always fake
00:03:27.360 in an election year so i would have expected these numbers to be faked a little bit more
00:03:32.560 maybe they'll get corrected later but at the moment it's looking like the stock market was down
00:03:40.320 maybe it's coming back a little today give me an update on that
00:03:43.520 um but anyway so that's uh that's what's happening with the economy it's looking a little dull
00:03:53.040 and i would think if uh unemployment is creeping up and joblessness is creeping up which is what's happening
00:04:00.800 um i don't know how a democrat could win under that situation but we're going to find out because the brainwashing is strong
00:04:09.840 meanwhile the united states and anthony blinken the secretary of state
00:04:14.400 has decided that the united states is going to accept the loser in the venezuela election
00:04:20.400 um saying that it was rigged and that the real rightful leader of the country is the person who
00:04:29.440 lost and so we're going to be backing the loser now if you follow mike benz he talks about uh john
00:04:39.440 bolden admitting that under trump administration he attempted to run a coup in venezuela and he just sort
00:04:46.560 of says that in public like that's just okay and then there's a clip of trump saying that you know
00:04:53.680 we had a chance that we could have gotten all their resources so apparently there was an explicit
00:05:00.880 coup attempt for venezuela which would give the united states some kind of you know greater
00:05:08.000 influence down there but it didn't work out so it looks like the united states is just trying again
00:05:14.640 which is interesting because it would mean that the effort was the same across two administrations
00:05:21.360 so that would mean that a republican and a democrat presidency acted exactly the same
00:05:26.880 trying to conquer venezuela now i would argue that this is business as usual and that we've tried to
00:05:34.800 influence indirectly or directly every country in our hemisphere and that's probably
00:05:40.560 good for stability in the world might even be good for those countries in some cases so
00:05:48.000 isn't it amazing seeing the gears of the machine well when you don't have to wonder
00:05:54.000 like i wonder if we're doing something in venezuela that's a little you know not above board yes of course
00:06:00.240 we are we are totally trying to conquer venezuela through a variety of you know persuasion plus dirty tricks
00:06:08.560 i'm sure and money and blackmail and i'm sure that we're doing just about everything
00:06:15.840 uh looks like uh things aren't looking too good on the stock market today
00:06:22.960 anyway so we'll be more on more news on that coming i'm sure uh let's see but at least at least the
00:06:30.240 elections in the united states are not like venezuela yeah can you imagine imagine if the elections in the
00:06:37.680 united states were as non-credible as the venezuelan elections oh my goodness we'd be in trouble
00:06:44.720 wouldn't we yeah um so here's a story from uh insurrection barbie is reporting this on x that
00:06:51.600 new lawsuit has been filed by a florida resident against mayorkas and a bunch of other people like
00:06:58.560 the florida secretary of state among others and there's it's alleged that there's a conspiracy to
00:07:04.240 commit election fraud hmm that it's not even not even in um in fenezuela this is in the united states
00:07:16.240 and the alleged allegation is that these ngos these non-government organizations are registering
00:07:22.320 non-citizens to vote and that once they're registered the ngos request the ballots which gets sent to them by
00:07:30.320 mail and and uh as uh insurrection barbie says you can guess the rest well if that's true i mean it's
00:07:38.560 an allegation hasn't been proven but if it's true the ngos are registering non-citizens to vote so they
00:07:44.320 can get a hold of their blank ballots and vote for them well that would be pretty bad wouldn't it but
00:07:50.080 it's just an allegation people people we're not as bad as venezuela we just have that one allegation
00:07:57.920 okay there's another allegation this was in the federalist that america has nearly 300 000
00:08:05.600 double registered voters oh okay watch job group found nearly 300 000 people are double registered to
00:08:13.200 vote and thousands who voted at least twice in recent elections huh well that would be
00:08:20.160 a big problem if that were true but but that's unproven it's unproven so unlike venezuela where
00:08:28.880 their elections were all rigged we just have these unproven allegations
00:08:35.920 uh let's see what else is happening oh uh there's a report by some military experts talking about how
00:08:43.040 tick tock is clearly part of the military operation to influence the united states two former military and
00:08:49.280 intelligence experts warned and uh this would be part of what what is called the three warfare
00:08:55.680 doctrine of china in which they would use of course physical force if needed but they would use economic and
00:09:03.280 persuasion and other other soft forces so let's see china has specifically said that their warfare
00:09:12.400 includes all of these persuasion elements and they do have control over tick tock which is the greatest
00:09:19.440 persuader for young people in america huh i wonder if there's any risk there i would like to add this to the
00:09:27.520 list of studies that you could have saved a lot of money if you just asked me hey we're thinking of
00:09:34.400 spending uh thousands of dollars on this study why don't we just ask scott and i would say well
00:09:42.080 china does have a doctrine of using every tool they can for warfare and it would be one of the
00:09:48.160 strongest tools anybody could imagine for persuasion so yes it is absolutely part of the chinese military warfare doctrine
00:09:56.800 there look how much money i could have saved them same answer i just didn't have to do the studying because
00:10:05.440 it's kind of obvious
00:10:08.800 hoax alert hoax alert
00:10:13.360 all right so apparently there the washington post is reporting that one of their reporters is going to be on morning joe
00:10:20.400 let's see let's see if we can piece this together remember i told you that you have to know the players
00:10:26.800 if you only know the story you don't know anything you have to know the players the players who are
00:10:33.520 telling you the story is the story then you know everything so let's see we've got the washington post
00:10:41.040 and their reporter is going to go on morning joe so those are the players the washington post
00:10:48.160 and morning joe and they've got oh they've got a big story here about the possibility
00:10:56.000 that donald trump took 10 million dollars cash from some egyptian source
00:11:04.080 uh
00:11:06.000 now if you only knew the story that would sound bad for trump wouldn't it because the story is that
00:11:12.640 somebody alleges that he took money from a foreign country well bad story but suppose you knew the
00:11:19.280 players the washington post and morning joe those are the least credible news outlets
00:11:28.320 in the entire world you could not become less credible and if the two of them join together
00:11:34.800 that's like non-credible squared so you don't even need to watch this story
00:11:39.760 you can dismiss it on its surface because of the players now will it become a bigger story maybe
00:11:47.840 because the washington post is known as a news maker in the business meaning that if it's in the
00:11:53.520 washington post or the new york times those are the big ones then the other outlets say well that's a
00:11:58.880 story so we'll cover it too because the big newspaper says it's a story so there are tons of things that
00:12:06.640 could be stories on any given day but the the news makers tell the other news business what's the
00:12:13.600 story that's what's happening here but these are the two biggest fake news entities and if they're teaming
00:12:18.960 up uh there's not really any chance this is real if you want to put a person percent likelihood
00:12:27.360 the story is real without even knowing the story you don't even need to know the story you just need
00:12:32.400 to know it's about trump if it were true it would be bad for trump and it's the washington post and
00:12:38.480 morning joe there's nothing else you need to know there's so little chance this is true
00:12:44.880 that you don't even need to look into it that's that would be my take now
00:12:50.800 do the hoaxes only work in one direction no here's the here's a hoax about kamala harris
00:12:56.800 yeah look at me shown both sides michael ian black would be so proud of me right now so here's a
00:13:04.160 hoax about kamala harris and remember here's my hoax trick one way you can tell a hoax is ask yourself
00:13:13.040 this question would anybody in the world ever say or do the thing that somebody's accused of saying or
00:13:20.960 doing would anybody under any circumstance ever do that if your answer is well honestly no nobody
00:13:28.080 would ever do that it didn't happen you you can really rely on that not happening i'll give you an
00:13:35.040 example so there's stories about kamala harris being a terrible boss um back when she was attorney general
00:13:42.640 in california but you know the story goes on that she's always a terrible boss but listen to the example
00:13:48.480 so there's somebody who has apparently worked on it and so the information comes from somebody who
00:13:53.920 was on her staff and uh gregory is the name of the person was given instructions to never address harris
00:14:01.040 nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members
00:14:07.040 now number one that's something that allegedly was told by a staffer so this is not about harris
00:14:15.280 this is about what a staffer said to another staffer do you think the experienced staffers
00:14:21.840 ever tell some bullshit to the new people of course they do in fact you would hear this story in hollywood
00:14:29.600 all the time about uh the the interns and and stuff on the set are told don't make eye contact with the
00:14:36.320 star don't try to talk to them but it's not the star the star might have no problem with it at all
00:14:43.200 you know although you know they have to concentrate so there's you know there's a practical element to
00:14:48.160 not bothering them when they're working but it's usually the staff who says oh whatever you do don't
00:14:54.880 make eye contact with brad pitt it's probably not brad pitt who cares it's the staff who said don't talk
00:15:01.760 to brad pitt so the first part of the hoax is that it conflates what harris may want or have said
00:15:09.120 was something a staff member may have wanted her said very different but it gets worse
00:15:17.520 uh the story says that harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered
00:15:23.760 her office and say good morning general because she was attorney general now here's where it all falls
00:15:31.280 apart is there anybody listening who thinks that's true that anybody anywhere ever in the history of
00:15:41.600 the united states ever said when i enter every single morning you should all stand up and say
00:15:47.600 good morning general do you think that's ever happened in the history of the world i don't
00:15:53.440 i think nobody has ever said that that's not that's not words that have come out of anybody's
00:15:59.280 mouth at any time ever and if you're the attorney general do you really want people standing and
00:16:05.760 calling you general it's not even something a woman would ever ask for no woman says call me general and
00:16:12.640 stand when i enter the office nobody yeah at the very least they'd worry that it would get out
00:16:18.320 like even if you wanted to do it you wouldn't do it because you're a public person and it would get
00:16:24.560 out of course this didn't happen how many of you think that she really asked her staff to stand up
00:16:31.680 every time she walked in the office in the morning and say good morning general does anybody believe
00:16:36.240 that's true nobody all right so remember the the the way to detect bullshit is to ask yourself would
00:16:46.080 anybody do that under any circumstance that's what they do to trump all the time would anybody stand
00:16:52.480 in front of the world and say those neo-nazis are fine people no not anybody not anybody who was president
00:17:02.720 would any president uh suggest maybe drinking bleach would be good no that's why you know it didn't
00:17:09.440 happen so this is another one no this did not happen i'm sorry there's nothing you could do to
00:17:14.800 make me believe this now is she a bad boss very possibly yes but keep in mind that female bosses do
00:17:24.800 get a little extra you know what i mean they get a little extra bitch treatment even when it's not
00:17:31.760 necessarily deserved you know i think that's that's a fair statement from women that a man can be tough
00:17:38.800 and other people say oh there's a tough man that's a good thing and then if a woman did something very
00:17:44.080 similar it would be maybe regarded as that bitch so that is a double standard and when you see people
00:17:51.760 evaluating bosses just now every boss gets this treatment every strong boss gets the you're a bad
00:18:00.880 boss treatment by some disgruntled person now that doesn't mean she's a good boss so if you think i'm
00:18:07.520 defending kamala harris's management i'm not i'm just telling you that the nature of these claims is
00:18:14.800 pretty pretty sketchy pretty sketchy
00:18:19.680 well here's some more things that aren't true uh the biden administration and harris i guess
00:18:25.120 are saying that they deported more immigrants illegal immigrants than trump did is that true
00:18:31.600 do you think it's true that the biden administration um deported like way more quite a bit more
00:18:38.080 um people than trump did it's true that's actually true is there anything left out that would change
00:18:46.960 how you think about that let's say if the biden administration deported the most people compared
00:18:54.800 to trump and there's it's pretty big difference then that's all you need to know isn't it that's
00:19:00.720 that's all you need to know wait what oh you would also need to know how many total people got in
00:19:07.840 wouldn't you because if one let a hundred times more people in and they deported twice as many
00:19:15.360 as the previous administration that's actually a terrible job it's a terrible job if you look at
00:19:22.560 it in context if you let in a you know a million people and you deport 10 of them and trump let in
00:19:30.800 a thousand people and deported one of them it's not the same
00:19:35.200 not the same
00:19:42.240 bank more on course when you switch to a scotia bank banking package
00:19:46.720 learn more at scotia bank.com slash banking packages conditions apply scotia bank you're richer than you
00:19:53.520 think well but at least everything we know about the climate is true um there's a report by roger
00:20:02.400 peel k jr in the climate change dispatch so he looked at uh how successful the big um countries
00:20:11.200 have been in decarbonizing in other words using putting less co2 in the air uh after the paris accord
00:20:20.880 was that what it's called the the big paris convention on climate change this is back in 2015
00:20:28.400 so now we've got uh eight years of data to see how that that worked now remember trump didn't want
00:20:35.120 to be part of that paris climate thing but democrats did so if the democrats were right
00:20:44.160 and this was a good thing to do we would see some big changes in the countries that
00:20:49.120 joined because they would have all agreed to decarbonize and you'd see that change
00:20:53.600 so how we doing i'm no change no change really the the world is adding about the same amount of
00:21:02.880 carbon as they always did yeah there are a couple of countries that actually went down
00:21:08.080 but uh overall uh united states and europe mostly no change so trump was certainly right that the
00:21:17.520 meeting had no impact and it was a waste of time i think that's validated by these numbers now of
00:21:25.840 course i always say all data is made up and fake but if you don't have data that shows that it worked
00:21:32.480 that would counter this data then you're sort of left with we don't see any reason to do it
00:21:38.880 because you can't prove it worked all right let me give you a lesson this is the most fun part of
00:21:45.600 today's uh today's show uh there's a technique of persuasion called entering their illusion or
00:21:54.480 entering your illusion now this is something that i've taught my subscribers and regular folks for
00:22:01.280 years it's something i mention all the time and what it is is instead of arguing with somebody who's
00:22:07.520 acting crazy you enter their illusion you accept what they say is true even though you know it's ridiculous
00:22:15.600 and then you operate within their within their illusion to ruin it for them so you can't ruin it
00:22:22.640 from the outside because they'll have their defenses up oh you're on the outside i i just reject what you
00:22:28.400 say but if you enter their illusion it really messes them up because you're using their own rules against
00:22:35.520 them so you're acting like what the illusion makes sense and then they can see it doesn't make sense
00:22:41.840 because you're in the illusion simply acting out what logic would require if the illusion were true
00:22:48.640 so now let's get back to trump when he went to the national association of black journalists
00:22:56.240 he went to an organization that was defined by its identity black and journalists and he went and he wanted to
00:23:07.280 uh talk about the identity of kamala harris now if he had just come up with this idea and have no context
00:23:18.480 whatsoever it would just look super racist to me like if nobody had ever talked about identity before
00:23:25.600 and then suddenly just goes up there and starts talking about a race i would be whoa what's this whoa
00:23:31.600 whoa why are you bringing a race into this that sounds really racist that would have been my response
00:23:37.760 if there had been no context to it whatsoever but the context is that for years democrats have been
00:23:44.560 telling us that identity is your primary variable it's the number one thing you consider
00:23:50.800 so what did trump do did he go there and say stop considering identity because that would be a failing
00:23:58.480 technique if you're in the illusion that identity is always the the primary and everything that
00:24:06.240 everything else just sort of follows that then you cannot somebody from the outside says no your model
00:24:13.440 is wrong you're you're hallucinating this can never be a good idea that won't be heard
00:24:19.200 so what trump did instead was he accepted their illusion
00:24:22.800 without arguing it he simply entered the illusion that identity is so important you really need to get
00:24:31.040 it right and so as a helpful person within their illusion he helped them with the conversation
00:24:39.680 about what is their identity because if identity is primary you want to make sure that you're accurate in
00:24:46.480 your identification of the identity and so he simply brought up with what democrats have talked about
00:24:53.520 forever what's clearly in the public record and you know he might have used his hyperbole a little bit to
00:25:00.960 say that kamala was making more of it than than she was but what is true and we can all observe from
00:25:07.920 looking at the videos of the past is that she certainly allowed people to identify her the way that would
00:25:14.400 help the most in that situation so if she happened to be talking to some asian americans then she was
00:25:21.440 person of indian descent and it worked really well in california but if she wants to be the president of
00:25:27.440 the united states maybe helps a little bit more to let people call you black and identify as black now i
00:25:34.560 don't have an opinion about any of that it's irrelevant what i think um i and i accept that people can
00:25:41.600 identify whatever they want and that's up to them but what trump did was he got into their illusion
00:25:49.360 and then he took a giant shit in their living room and walked away now if somebody takes a giant
00:25:56.960 shit in your living room in the middle of the floor here's what you can't do something else
00:26:03.280 you can't do something else you got to deal with the fact that there's a giant shit in the middle of
00:26:10.240 your living room you can't do something else that's first you got to deal with that and so you watch the
00:26:16.400 news do you remember when the news was saying everybody's weird trump's weird and you could tell
00:26:24.480 right away that that wasn't going to be like a long-term plan because it didn't really have legs it was
00:26:31.040 just maybe something to say in the short run but they had to deal with the identity question because
00:26:37.760 it's their primary illusion so they had to deal with the fact that within their primary illusion
00:26:43.840 there was a giant turd in the middle of their living room and they had to explain it away and it
00:26:49.840 was hard to explain away do you know why because it's an illusion they're living in an illusion they're
00:26:56.880 they're trying to look for the logical argument where trump is wrong to have brought up the very
00:27:02.880 important question of identity when their primary interest is identity so the magic and beauty and
00:27:11.120 the power of that will increase over time which is what makes it really diabolical in a fun way that
00:27:18.240 uh that it's going to marinate it's it's going to sink in over time he doesn't have to say another
00:27:26.080 word about it just that whole conversation is going to make the whole illusion look sketchy and stupid
00:27:33.840 he doesn't even have to say it it just does its own work over time and and watching the democrats give fake
00:27:41.040 mad about it it's all fake mad they just had to bring on everybody who is black and would be willing
00:27:48.720 to make a face all right are you black yes i am would you like to go on tv yes i would well first
00:27:56.560 we're gonna have to see your face can you do a deeply disappointed face but also quickly transition
00:28:03.440 into a smile when you found out when somebody says something bad about trump yes i can all right
00:28:09.600 let's start with your unhappy face all right i'm doing if you're listening on audio only i'm doing
00:28:17.680 a hilarious unhappy face trump said what racist all right now let's see if you can quickly transition
00:28:28.960 from your disgusted face to a happy little smiling face when you find out that trump might get a lot
00:28:35.200 of trouble for what he said can you do that okay start with the unhappy face
00:28:39.600 now transition now transition
00:28:45.680 nailed it nailed it you got the mouth up but the eyes are still sad you nailed it and that's that's
00:28:53.520 their programming is black faces they're disappointed but a little bit happy
00:29:01.280 now imagine that your opponent forced you into that
00:29:04.400 that desperately trying to find more black faces that can look super unhappy but smile also at the
00:29:13.600 same time
00:29:16.880 well smirk conish over on cnn uh always one of the most interesting signposts of how cnn is going and
00:29:25.520 what's allowable he he's somewhat on the edge um he had a indian american come on who wrote a book
00:29:32.960 called almost black in which he talks about his experience of uh he couldn't get into medical school
00:29:39.760 because he only had a 3.1 gpa uh so he decided to identify as black got right in so he knew that as
00:29:49.680 an indian american with a 3.1 he had no chance of going to medical school but uh as long as he said he
00:29:56.000 was black he was quite dark skinned so he got away with it um fine and it worked out just great wrote a book
00:30:04.160 about it so i think it's fascinating that smirk conish would have that kind of content on in the
00:30:11.760 middle of trump's turd in the living room it means that they're thinking about the the topic has expanded
00:30:19.840 and and i don't know that this kind of content would have been as acceptable even from smirk conish
00:30:25.920 who i think is more interestingly independent on on cnn than other people um i think
00:30:34.320 i think this is loud now but i want to give you a sort of a summary of how racist the country is
00:30:42.560 you know it's one of the biggest issues in the country is how racist we are so i'm just going to
00:30:48.400 summarize it this is how bad it is in this country are you ready this this will be a one-sentence
00:30:55.600 description of how bad racism has gotten this country racism is so bad in this country that a
00:31:02.080 woman has to claim to be black just to run for president
00:31:08.800 am i wrong in order to be qualified to be president she had to claim she was black when
00:31:15.280 she could have gone either way like the indian guy who got into med school claimed he was black
00:31:21.040 because i got him elected do you think that conal harris would uh believe be she's about tie in the
00:31:27.360 polls right now do you think she'd be a tie in the polls if she had identified as strictly indian
00:31:32.800 no i don't think so i don't think so i think identity is a pretty big draw
00:31:42.960 um nate silver has decided that the presidential race is a toss-up
00:31:48.720 based on current polling i think that he is correct that it's a toss-up in the sense that you
00:31:55.280 really can't predict it if you're trying to straight line it from today it's like okay based
00:32:00.880 on today who's going to win i agree with nate silver it's a it's a coin toss i don't i don't
00:32:07.360 even feel it leaning in one direction at this point now i've said and joe rogan got in trouble for saying
00:32:13.360 this that kamala harris if you were just to look at a snapshot today she's in the winning position
00:32:20.880 because the media is just just so powerful and she's hitting the right identity buttons
00:32:31.360 if enough people think that she's black enough for the black community to say you know she's one of us
00:32:37.520 then that's probably all they need and you can count on some more fake stories about trump and some
00:32:43.280 october surprises and stuff so if i were to and then and then i do fully expect that the election will be rigged
00:32:51.680 i expect the election will be rigged now that's what a lot of people say but let me say why
00:33:00.640 it's because the stakes are so high and we don't have a system that's fully auditable
00:33:06.960 and we have a government which clearly doesn't mind overthrowing countries such as venezuela using any
00:33:14.320 means they can whenever it seems to make sense to the people who are deciding to do it or not do it
00:33:20.320 and since we know that the intelligence people are willing to do their intelligence thing internally
00:33:27.120 which you would hope would not even be legal but apparently it is there's not really any hope of a
00:33:33.520 fair election i mean i don't not really i mean if you look at just the setup
00:33:40.400 how could it be now if we had the kind of elections that some people have been hypnotized into thinking we
00:33:46.000 have which is you could tell if there was cheating no we don't have that that there may be some really
00:33:53.280 specific areas where if somebody cheated you could tell but not in general in general there are all
00:33:59.600 kinds of holes all kinds of ways you could cheat and you know we've seen lots of uh smaller issues and
00:34:06.880 lots of allegations that would certainly suggest there are plenty of opportunities a lot of has to do with
00:34:12.400 mail-ins and uh getting a hold of those ballots from people who weren't going to vote but certainly
00:34:18.960 the mechanism is there the desire is there the incentive is there so if you have the motive
00:34:26.240 and the means and you're going to tell me it's not going to happen
00:34:31.040 does everybody agree that they have the motive and the means let's say if trump actually had more votes
00:34:37.200 at the end don't they have the means to cheat if you tell me they don't have a mechanism to cheat
00:34:43.760 i would say you haven't lived in this world very long even if they're not using it they certainly have
00:34:50.800 the mechanism that i'm i'm more certain of that than anything i've ever been certain of
00:34:58.160 that even if they don't cheat oh they have the mechanism they do have the mechanism
00:35:03.840 so uh there's let's talk about this russia prisoner swap the big news so 16 uh america 16
00:35:13.760 people held by moscow were released including the wall street journal reporter and uh former marine
00:35:20.480 paul wellin and some others journalists etc and they'd all been convicted of charges that
00:35:26.560 the us and others thought were made up charges i i've read all about this story and i haven't seen
00:35:33.120 what we gave up in exchange have you has anybody seen the list of who we traded to them i know it's
00:35:41.440 out there but for some reason it wasn't in the headlines so we don't know exactly what was traded do we
00:35:50.080 and we get this this generic statement from kamala harris it's the extraordinary testament to having
00:35:56.400 a president who understands the power of diplomacy and strengthening the alliances in the test of time
00:36:01.680 the alliances strengthened by the extraordinary testaments of the president's well it was something
00:36:07.280 like that i don't know it was just basically some word salad so as others have pointed out it was the
00:36:12.480 first time she spoke spontaneously you know without notes and it was a train wreck it was just she tried
00:36:21.280 to string two sentences together and failed and she was standing next to biden who probably couldn't have even
00:36:29.600 strung one sentence one sentence together so all i was thinking of was uh trump's framing
00:36:36.080 of where they're trying to figure out who's dumber
00:36:39.680 because they they must have figured out that kamala harris would do a better job with this you know two
00:36:45.600 sentences statement when the prisoners were coming back on the plane
00:36:52.560 and did you see the video where biden appears to not know what he's doing he's on the tarmac and he suddenly walks
00:36:58.720 toward a plane and starts walking up the stairs and everybody's like uh joe joe uh well what are you
00:37:07.200 doing uh uh uh you're walking on that plane for no reason um um what's happening what's happening
00:37:16.560 and so he actually just got on the plane and then got off by himself
00:37:20.320 maybe he thought the he was going to go say hi to the people being released before they came out of
00:37:27.920 the plane or were they already out i'm a little confused why he got on the plane but it just looked
00:37:34.000 like he was lost he just looked like a dementia patient who wandered off i mean i don't know what
00:37:39.120 the real story is but that's what it looks like so the two of them looking like idiots he was wandering
00:37:44.880 around and she couldn't put two sentences together and literally i thought to myself they are actually
00:37:51.600 literally trying to decide who's dumber
00:37:56.720 trump had that so nailed they they're trying to decide who's dumber because you know if they thought
00:38:02.720 that biden maybe could do a better statement he's still president so he would have done the statement to
00:38:08.960 put that on his legacy but he couldn't he was just sort of standing there and like oh we'll take a
00:38:14.320 chance on kamala then she starts talking and and it practically sounded like that in the you know
00:38:21.840 the time the passage of time in the you know it sounded like that a little bit and you know everybody
00:38:27.520 was like oh god oh god we should have picked the other one she's dumber than joe anyway so rasmussen
00:38:34.400 did a poll asking people if they believed that there was only one shooter uh in the assassination
00:38:40.080 attempt on trump 53 percent said they believed the gunman acted alone but i have some question
00:38:47.440 what that means acted alone i think he was probably alone at the event but is that the same as acting
00:38:55.760 alone if somebody let's say taught him how to make bombs because he had some bombs if somebody for
00:39:03.280 example gave him gave him some money so he could buy the gun from his father i think that's he bought
00:39:09.840 the gun maybe he wouldn't have been able to afford it without a little help maybe whoever he was talking
00:39:15.280 to through his encrypted apps was working on him to do what he did so i still think the question of whether
00:39:23.120 there was somebody who was brainwashing him existed because my guess is yes if i had to guess i would
00:39:33.360 say there's somebody who was influencing him because it just doesn't smell right as a loan act you know
00:39:41.920 that the not being on social media and we still don't know if that was really his gab account and
00:39:48.320 everything about this is a little sketchy now i guess the secret service is in charge of
00:39:53.840 investigating itself to find out how it did how do you think that'll go
00:40:01.040 yeah how do you think that'll go investigating itself

00:41:05.520 anyway um i'll be uh is the stock market uh tanking right now or is it stable give me give me an update
00:41:16.320 on the stock market because japan was uh way down and europe was taking a hit this morning but i heard
00:41:24.800 somebody say that the stock market was the u.s stock market was maybe stabilizing a little
00:41:30.480 all right friday sell-off a little bit of stability so it's not terrible in the united states yet
00:41:39.440 but it might be so here's the thing i i would not expect the stock market to fall before elections
00:41:48.240 i feel like elections are times when um the democrats at least will say well we can't make the stock
00:41:54.960 market go down before election day so i would think that all the democrats would want to hold
00:42:00.400 their stocks or buy stocks if they want the stock market to look good on election day because that
00:42:05.920 would be good for harris so we'll see but on the other hand there are really big things happening
00:42:14.000 that the investors might say well hell with that political stuff i just need my money take it out
00:42:19.680 so anything could happen we're in we're in uncharted territories um biden said that the killing of
00:42:27.840 which we assume israel did the killing of hamas's political leader was uh not helpful
00:42:34.960 for getting a ceasefire agreement it says it doesn't help now i would ask this following question
00:42:43.120 maybe that's why it was done maybe that's why israel decided it was a good time to do it
00:42:48.640 now it was also opportunistic because allegedly they'd hidden the bomb in that guest house months
00:42:54.800 before and they were just waiting for uh so i'm saying uh we've got some trolls scott supported kamala in
00:43:05.760 2020 and promoted jabs you're such a bad troll like why do the trolls yell in all caps so that you know
00:43:13.600 that they're not real people you can at least put some effort into upper and lower case if you're
00:43:21.040 going to tell lies about me in public it's the least i ask i i want my my trolls to be at least capable
00:43:29.440 of doing upper and lower case can i can i get that do you really have to be the lowest quality of of
00:43:37.440 trolls where you don't have anything real to say about me but you have to scream it in caps
00:43:43.600 yes we have lots of uh all caps uh trolls today i can't tell if these are the paid ones if they're
00:43:55.840 paid ones are overpaid somebody needs to just to get their money back anyway nbc is uh reporting that
00:44:06.080 the democrats continue to hemorrhage support among hispanic voters in pennsylvania now i will say this
00:44:14.400 again anybody who knows the hispanic community is not surprised that they're friendlier to republicans
00:44:24.640 than the democrats expected doesn't surprise me that they're the most republican acting
00:44:32.720 uh demographic in the united states they they love their families they love working hard
00:44:40.880 once they get in the country i mean you certainly that's uh could be illegal in some cases but once
00:44:47.280 they get here they are quite law-abiding as as a general group of people and they're just trying to
00:44:54.480 make their kids succeed and contribute and help help their family and yeah it's it's probably one of the
00:45:01.440 most solid and desirable demographics in the country desirable in the sense that if you've never spent
00:45:09.920 time around that group you're really missing something it is a fun fun demographic so don't be
00:45:17.840 surprised if hispanics sort of just keep trending republican they like their work they like their religion
00:45:26.400 they like their families that's a republican all right uh independent voters appear to be less
00:45:35.520 interested in harris but i'm not sure if it matters if if the polls are tied i mean i don't know how that
00:45:41.600 can be true but let me let me add something that i learned yesterday about polling
00:45:46.320 what i learned about polling is it gets wonky in the summer because if you're just calling people in
00:45:59.280 general you're going to get a different group of people in the summer than you would get during regular
00:46:06.320 scheduled months so there's something that in mid-september when kids are back in school and
00:46:13.040 vacations are done that you're just going to see a what i'd call a natural change in the polling
00:46:19.680 that's unrelated to anybody changing their minds it would just be some natural kind of thing
00:46:27.920 anyway so we'll see i i wouldn't trust any of the polling over the summer
00:46:31.920 chevron the company announced it's going to be moving its headquarters from um over there
00:46:41.760 basically my neighbors to texas so i used to i used to work next to the chevron headquarters
00:46:50.000 it was in san ramon in california and that's where pacific bell was too so the two campuses were right
00:46:56.320 next to each other so and uh true story there was a employee at chevron named scott adams who when
00:47:04.960 dilbert became famous people kept saying are you scott adams a cartoonist and he would say well i'm black
00:47:15.200 and he's not so probably not maybe that should have been your first clue but i did meet him he was a
00:47:21.040 lovely guy and uh he's probably not working there still but uh chevron's moving to texas
00:47:28.560 and i think chevron said we won't be the last company moving to texas now in my town
00:47:36.000 this is going to be a big hit because it was the chevron headquarters that's a pretty big building with
00:47:42.960 a lot of employees high-end high-pay employees that's just gone so san ramon the town two towns
00:47:51.600 away from me just took a gigantic hit in their economic in their tax base that you know schools
00:47:59.040 will probably suffer this is some serious when when a major company like that just says we're out of
00:48:06.240 your state we can't even work in your state this is really serious now is it serious enough that we
00:48:13.360 could get a republican president and maybe something would get fixed probably not because i think
00:48:18.480 california is completely mentally incapable it if it's possible for a state to have a mental problem
00:48:27.680 that would be us that would be us that would be us all right it looks like uh my my usual troll may
00:48:41.520 have two different accounts um ukraine allegedly blew up a 12-ton russian helicopter with a little drone
00:48:50.320 drone now apparently they've been trying to do this for a long time but they finally got one and i said
00:48:57.680 to myself how in the world can helicopters still be useful tools in the future of drones now i completely
00:49:06.320 understand how a you know a jet would be maybe hard to destroy with a drone but wouldn't a helicopter
00:49:14.640 always be drunk like couldn't you get all the helicopters with drones i mean how how does a
00:49:22.240 helicopter protect itself from a drone because the drone can travel as faster faster it seems to
00:49:29.280 be the helicopters will no longer be a tool of war there are two tools of war that i expect will just
00:49:35.200 completely go away tanks and helicopters because you can't be a slow-moving uh weapon of war
00:49:44.640 if you're slow moving the drones are going to take you out every time so warfare is really really
00:49:51.440 going to change there's just no point in having a big slow thing like a helicopter or a tank
00:49:57.760 anyway searchlight pictures presents the roses only in theaters august 29th from the director of meet
00:50:05.200 the parents and the writer of poor things comes the roses starring academy award winner olivia coleman
00:50:11.440 academy award nominee benedict cumberbatch andy sandberg kate mckinnon and allison janney a hilarious
00:50:17.600 new comedy filled with drama excitement and a little bit of hatred proving that marriage isn't
00:50:23.040 always a bed of roses see the roses only in theaters august 29th get tickets now
00:50:30.880 apparently ai is being useful to the only fans stars who are using ai to pretend to be them
00:50:37.360 and text with their fans but they can't get the ai to talk dirty so it's sort of a giveaway hey this ai
00:50:46.960 won't talk dirty um which is interesting because there's a study science blog has this report that large
00:50:57.600 language models were studied and sure enough 24 of the large language model ais were studied
00:51:04.640 and they have a left-leaning bias oh surprise they have a left-leaning bias of course they do
00:51:16.640 yeah so it has a left-leaning body at bias and yet it can't talk nerdy so what the hell good is it
00:51:24.880 what are you going to use it for if it can't talk nerdy
00:51:27.520 and it can't tell you the truth what's left
00:51:36.320 the only the only context in which i want the ai to lie to me would be if it's talking dirty
00:51:43.600 then lie all you want you know just make sure your dirty talk is on point but lying's fine but it was
00:51:50.640 that's the only time it won't lie is when it when you ask it to talk dirty no that would be not appropriate
00:51:57.200 i will not do that all right and then finally the most important story from the daily sabah
00:52:06.560 that scientists have implanted human brain cells and rats for the first time
00:52:10.800 and so they're the the idea is that if they put these human brain cells and rats
00:52:18.560 they can study stuff like psych psychiatric disorders autism and schizophrenia and stuff
00:52:25.840 so now you've got these rats they're going to be part human
00:52:31.760 and part rats what would you call them they're well really they're they're gonna be like demons
00:52:42.080 in a way but also part rat i would call them demon rats demon rats you might call them democrats
00:52:54.400 but in both cases rats at the end you can't spell democrat without rat it's true it's true
00:53:01.760 so yeah we're gonna have these uh possibly uh super ai driven rats
00:53:09.360 um i suspect at some point they'll be fitted with lasers and then game on all right that ladies and
00:53:16.720 gentlemen it's all the news and views that you've been waiting for did i miss anything any big news
00:53:27.440 uh
00:53:30.640 wait chevron phillips hold on hold on uh not chevron okay
00:53:40.640 all right looks like i got everything so that ladies and gentlemen is the show for today i'm going
00:53:46.480 to go talk to the subscribers on locals privately um and uh say goodbye to x and rumble and youtube
00:53:57.040 right now i'll see you tomorrow same time same place
00:54:06.640 you
