Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2580 CWSA 08⧸28⧸24

00:00:00.240 Parallel pleasure, the dopamine, the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:04.440 It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it's going to happen now. Go!

00:00:11.840 Oh, that is truly delightful.

00:00:15.560 I can feel every organ in my body, body, everything in my body.

00:00:20.840 It's starting to come online, finally.

00:00:23.000 Well, the X platform is testing a new video conferencing tool, says TechCrunch.

00:00:31.940 So when Musk says that X is going to do everything, he's pretty serious about that,

00:00:39.840 which is fascinating because X could end up being his most valuable property.

00:00:45.080 It's a long game, but imagine if you could go to X, you could do your payments.

00:00:50.440 He's going to do that, so you can pay people.

00:00:53.000 You can communicate.

00:00:54.420 You can call them, you know, without using the phone company.

00:00:57.740 You've got encryption, although we don't trust encryption.

00:01:01.520 You have video conferencing.

00:01:06.780 I feel like Musk has a few advantages.

00:01:12.320 One of them is that he's a sort of a late follower for these, but he's highly qualified.

00:01:19.980 You know, assuming his engineers are well qualified.

00:01:23.000 So that if you come in late to any of these businesses, you can look at all the things

00:01:27.560 they've done and just clone it.

00:01:29.920 So he doesn't have to be, you know, better at Zoom.

00:01:33.760 He just has to also offer it.

00:01:36.220 He doesn't need to be better at payments.

00:01:38.960 He just has to also offer it because it's, you know, once you're in X, you're just going

00:01:44.340 to use X.

00:01:45.340 So his strategy for basically owning all of those businesses simply because people were

00:01:51.360 already on X is pretty strong.

00:01:55.100 It's a pretty strong argument.

00:01:57.800 Anyway, there's a competitor to the Neuralink chip.

00:02:01.400 You know, the one that gets inserted in your skull and they put little wires into your brain.

00:02:07.140 Well, according to New Atlas, there's a different version that's more, the smaller and more minimally

00:02:15.140 invasive.

00:02:16.600 So in Switzerland, they're testing it.

00:02:18.520 But this one doesn't have wires into your brain.

00:02:21.920 Instead, it learns what patterns of electrical signals your brain gives off under different

00:02:28.540 conditions.

00:02:29.520 And then it trains itself on you.

00:02:32.020 So it's just reading your electrical signals in your brain without any wires.

00:02:36.500 So it's not actually connected.

00:02:38.420 Now, I've seen this technology before, maybe years ago.

00:02:42.260 I actually tested one where you put a little strap on your head and it could sort of read

00:02:47.680 your brain, but it didn't work at all back then.

00:02:50.200 The one I used just didn't work.

00:02:53.120 And but imagine if you could, it says 91% accuracy in determining the text you're trying to write

00:03:01.400 with your mind.

00:03:02.840 I don't think 91% is going to get you there.

00:03:06.180 So probably you're going to need the Neuralink model to really do the good stuff.

00:03:10.840 But you might have this minimally invasive thing that doesn't have to be drilled so far

00:03:16.140 into your brain.

00:03:16.840 It's really thin and small.

00:03:20.000 Well, according to climate realism, Bloomberg is reporting that there are record crops coming

00:03:28.100 in.

00:03:29.340 So all over the world, there are record crops.

00:03:32.540 Do you know why the crops are so good?

00:03:35.680 Well, some of it is because of climate change.

00:03:40.840 Or to put it a different way, some of it is because of higher CO2, which is good for plants.

00:03:50.000 So one of the lesser recognized aspects of climate change is it's really good for farming

00:03:57.680 and it should bring down your food costs.

00:04:00.700 So the more CO2 you can pump into the air, the less you'll pay at the grocery store.

00:04:05.700 I mean, in theory, I don't know if that actually is going to be the case, but in theory.

00:04:09.960 So I'm not saying that's good or bad.

00:04:13.980 I'm just saying it's happening.

00:04:15.620 And the good news is farming looks pretty strong around the world.

00:04:20.860 Well, the Biden-Harris administration, according to the Washington Free Beacon, when children

00:04:30.360 are taught about climate change, they're taught that on NASA's environmental page for children,

00:04:39.880 lots of fun and games and films and stuff, but it warns them that the world is undergoing

00:04:47.320 cataclysmic warming, sea levels are rising, global ice coverage is diminishing, and their

00:04:54.640 future may be doomed.

00:04:55.840 Now, I don't think that's true, but imagine you're a young person and you go through a

00:05:05.040 school system that tells you that the climate is doomed and nobody's really working to fix

00:05:12.000 it.

00:05:13.200 Now, people are working to fix it all over the place.

00:05:16.240 I'll talk more about that.

00:05:17.780 But imagine you're a kid.

00:05:19.280 And then, let's say you graduate from that system, and then you find yourself a girlfriend.

00:05:28.080 Are the two of you going to be thinking about having children and bringing them into this

00:05:32.540 world that's already been destroyed and we're just waiting for the doom in the end?

00:05:38.140 I don't know why you would have children if you believed that climate change was going

00:05:43.340 to doom them to floods.

00:05:46.560 Anyway.

00:05:49.280 The What's Up With That webpage or entity, I think Watt is the name of the person, W-A-T-T.

00:05:58.860 Apparently, there's reportedly sea levels are plunging in temperatures in an unexpected way.

00:06:06.520 Now, it's unexpected because the temperature is supposed to be going up, and it's embarrassingly

00:06:12.960 unexpected because for the years prior to that, the headlines were claiming

00:06:19.060 the sea was boiling, that the ocean was warming up so much and so quickly that it could only

00:06:26.220 be climate change, and we're all doomed.

00:06:30.020 And then, with additional CO2 in the air, the ocean started, allegedly, cooling down for

00:06:38.100 a couple years in a row.

00:06:39.120 And there's no way to explain it, because the current models say, hmm, that can't really happen.

00:06:44.620 Now, I get that any given year can be a fluctuation.

00:06:48.220 But if it's true that they said, hmm, a few years of warming means climate change,

00:06:53.000 then a few years of cooling means what?

00:06:57.460 Well, either they both mean nothing, or they both mean something, and you can't explain it.

00:07:02.840 Remember I told you that all data about important things is fake?

00:07:08.900 All data about important things is fake.

00:07:14.560 Anyway, my takeaway from this is it's difficult to have a conversation with anyone who believes

00:07:22.260 any one of these two things.

00:07:23.760 If you believe any of these two things, I don't think I could have a real conversation

00:07:29.140 with you.

00:07:30.420 Number one, the news is real.

00:07:33.920 If you believe that the news business is even trying to be real, like even in their own minds,

00:07:40.920 trying to be real, if you believe that, I can't really have a conversation with you.

00:07:47.540 We would have to solve that part first.

00:07:50.160 If we could get on the same page where, you know, inexplicably somebody could convince

00:07:55.060 me the news is real, or inexplicably I could convince them it's not, well, then we could

00:08:00.520 have a conversation.

00:08:02.340 Likewise, if I meet somebody who believes that scientists can accurately measure the temperature

00:08:09.120 of the earth and all of the ocean, as well as the air, and then predict it into the future,

00:08:17.200 I can't really have a conversation with that person.

00:08:20.160 Because they don't know how anything works in the real world.

00:08:24.440 In the real world, it's obviously true you can't do this.

00:08:28.060 It's really, really super obvious to people who have enough experience operating in the 0.99

00:08:33.420 real world and know that all corporate and government stuff is bullshit. 0.98

00:08:38.120 So, no, you can't measure it accurately enough. 0.98

00:08:41.340 It's accurately enough is the important part.

00:08:43.940 No, it's not something humans can do.

00:08:46.640 Now, if you tell me, but Scott, you don't understand how good our technology is.

00:08:51.560 I'm not talking about the technology.

00:08:54.360 I'm talking about it being implemented by human beings and being really complicated and lots

00:09:00.080 of moving parts and too many variables and assumptions.

00:09:04.340 No, humans can't measure the temperature of the earth.

00:09:06.840 I don't know if we ever will be able to, but we definitely can't do it now.

00:09:12.440 And if you've bought into the notion that humans have that capability, again, I'm separating

00:09:18.920 from the kind of thermometer telling you the temperature.

00:09:22.740 Yeah, I probably can.

00:09:23.440 But they're really different than being able to accurately measure the temperature of the

00:09:29.940 earth and all the parts of the matter.

00:09:33.260 So, no, I can't have any conversation with anybody who believes that that's a possible

00:09:37.100 thing.

00:09:39.440 Well, here's the good news, though.

00:09:41.120 Popular Mechanics says that there's so much energy in the ocean that it's like the world's

00:09:45.540 biggest battery.

00:09:46.200 So, if you could put a generator in the ocean that's got a lot of movement, especially up

00:09:53.380 and down, the up and down can move some floaty thing up and down that will cause a generator

00:09:59.100 to produce electricity.

00:10:01.300 I'm not sure I completely buy into the ocean being a viable source because the ocean is so

00:10:09.120 violent.

00:10:10.360 You know, it moves a lot.

00:10:11.820 It feels like it would just rip apart any mechanical thing too quickly.

00:10:17.520 Sort of the same problem that windmills have.

00:10:20.800 You know, windmill is great if you had, you know, some perfect level of wind all the time.

00:10:25.820 But if it's like sometimes really heavy and sometimes not, you know, that's a lot of pressure

00:10:31.360 to put on a mechanical device.

00:10:33.660 So, I'm not sure that we can make that happen.

00:10:36.240 But it turns out that off the coast of Oregon, there's a big test to see if they can really

00:10:42.700 generate some meaningful electricity in a practical way.

00:10:47.580 But here's my takeaway.

00:10:49.820 Suppose they can.

00:10:51.640 Suppose they figure out a way that they can just use the oceans up and down to make like

00:10:57.420 really good electricity that's dependable.

00:10:59.880 The interesting part is that's probably all you need to make sea cities, right?

00:11:07.340 And now, arguably, you could use batteries and you could use solar and you could have

00:11:12.460 electricity that way in your little city that you've built on the ocean.

00:11:18.300 But I would much rather have some kind of pumps that work with the ocean itself in case

00:11:23.440 it's a cloudy day.

00:11:24.400 So, this might open up the entire ocean to, you know, some serious populating.

00:11:31.700 Maybe.

00:11:34.000 Did you know that the U.S. grid is adding just tons of batteries and solar and stuff like

00:11:40.500 that, according to Ars Technica?

00:11:43.380 You don't need the details, but wind, solar, and batteries are being just installed at a

00:11:49.640 crazy pace now.

00:11:50.540 So, just in case you weren't paying attention, all of the green energy stuff is really coming

00:11:57.760 online.

00:11:58.900 You know, I think green is one of those things that would be nothing for 80 years until it's

00:12:03.520 everything.

00:12:04.960 So, we might be, you know, entering the beginning of the everything phase.

00:12:10.080 How many years have solar panels been invented?

00:12:17.080 It's a long time, right?

00:12:18.580 Because I remember when I was maybe 12 years old, I bought a little science kit that had

00:12:24.280 a little solar panel in it.

00:12:27.200 So, you know, we're talking 50 years ago.

00:12:30.640 You could buy it as a toy.

00:12:33.200 So, I think my estimates may be right.

00:12:36.700 Maybe 80 years after solar panels are invented, they might take off.

00:12:42.100 And that wouldn't even be that surprising, 80 years after the invention of the solar panel.

00:12:48.260 So, we'll see.

00:12:50.700 All right, let's talk about our press.

00:12:54.500 Remember that press that some people think is real?

00:12:58.220 All right.

00:13:00.720 Politico got community noted on X.

00:13:03.280 So, here's what Politico said in the headline on X platform, talking about their own article.

00:13:13.380 They said, quote, Vance tries to tether Harris to Biden during the Michigan rally.

00:13:18.420 So, VP candidate Vance is trying to say that Kamala Harris is somehow tethered to the current administration.

00:13:32.000 I mean, how can Politico, you know, I mean, it's quite a good fact check.

00:13:38.460 Because Kamala Harris isn't tethered to anything.

00:13:44.600 Well, the community note said, and I quote, Harris is currently President Biden's Vice President.

00:13:51.020 So, the community note had to remind Politico that Vice President Harris is the Vice President.

00:13:59.580 Oh, my goodness.

00:14:01.840 That's right.

00:14:02.980 Yeah, Vance is trying to tether her to the Harris-Biden administration.

00:14:09.280 As Molly Hemingway pointed out, the funniest part is that the community note provided a source.

00:14:16.160 Because the notes like to provide sources.

00:14:19.240 And the source was the White House, the White House page that shows who's the Vice President of the United States.

00:14:25.060 That was the fact check on Politico.

00:14:27.560 It's telling him who the Vice President is.

00:14:32.200 Anyway, Joe Rogan is not too happy about MSNBC.

00:14:36.400 Apparently, they took some words of his that he said about Tulsi Gabbard, and they spliced it.

00:14:45.580 So, it looked like Joe Rogan was saying good things about Kamala Harris.

00:14:48.880 Now, how much more corrupt can you be than literally changing the person he was talking about?

00:14:56.800 That's super corrupt.

00:14:59.040 But, Rogan's all over that.

00:15:01.500 How about Zero Hedge?

00:15:05.820 Zero Hedge is one of my favorite sources.

00:15:09.500 I'm not saying anything about accuracy.

00:15:12.020 But, they have lots of stories that interest me.

00:15:16.340 So, Zero Hedge has this story today that Warren Buffett sold $982 million of his stock in Bank of America.

00:15:26.780 So, that's the headline, just by itself.

00:15:30.760 Warren Buffett sells nearly a billion dollars of Bank of America shares.

00:15:36.740 So, what's your takeaway from that?

00:15:39.340 Well, if you read that by itself, your takeaway would be, oh my goodness, Warren Buffett thinks Bank of America is no longer a good investment.

00:15:47.340 What's wrong with the information that I just gave you, that Warren Buffett is going to sell nearly a billion dollars of Bank of America shares?

00:16:01.500 Well, what you should say is, how much does he own?

00:16:07.400 Remember, if you only see the percentage in the story, it's trying to mislead you.

00:16:13.480 If you only see the raw number without the percentage, it's trying to mislead you.

00:16:19.780 The one and only thing that you could see as potentially real news, and even then it's the only potential, is if they tell you the number and the percentage.

00:16:31.600 What would you guess would be the percentage if it's big enough to be a story?

00:16:37.760 If they're making it a headline story, don't you assume it's a pretty big percentage?

00:16:43.480 Well, it's maybe a quarter.

00:16:46.180 I think it was around a quarter.

00:16:48.000 Now, a quarter is a big percentage, but it's not telling you he doesn't like the stock.

00:16:53.900 If he kept selling another quarter, another quarter, then maybe yes.

00:16:57.980 But it's far more indicative that he just has something else he wants the money for, or that he took enough profits, or it's too much of a percentage of his total portfolio.

00:17:08.120 He also took money out of Apple.

00:17:09.760 Is that because he doesn't like Apple?

00:17:14.500 Maybe.

00:17:16.060 But you could say it's just equally because Apple went up so much, he didn't want that much of his total portfolio to be in one company, so he trimmed some off.

00:17:25.620 So if you don't know sort of the background about why he's doing it, what the number is, you haven't learned anything.

00:17:31.920 So you need to get that number.

00:17:33.140 Time Magazine has a headline.

00:17:36.100 I haven't read the story, but the headline for an opinion piece, I think, is, what if ultra-processed foods aren't as bad as you think?

00:17:44.220 Okay.

00:17:44.700 I don't know anything about who wrote it or why they wrote it, but do you trust the media at all, presumably who have connections to the food industry, because, you know, everything big is connected to everything else, maybe with advertisers, maybe not, I don't know.

00:18:03.160 But do you trust the story that says, what if ultra-processed foods aren't as bad as you think?

00:18:09.660 I do not.

00:18:11.440 To me, that looks like, I don't think I'm going to read that, because first of all, they don't have an answer.

00:18:16.600 They're saying, what if?

00:18:18.140 If they had an answer to the question, they'd say, news research shows ultra-processed foods are good for you.

00:18:25.540 So if they don't have an answer for it, they're just trying to maybe make you less afraid, why would they do that?

00:18:34.280 Well, I don't know.

00:18:35.340 Do they have some connection to that industry?

00:18:37.440 Those are the questions you'd ask.

00:18:38.840 I don't know the answer to those.

00:18:40.660 I'm just saying that I wouldn't trust this story enough to even read it.

00:18:46.080 From the headline alone, I go, ah, pass.

00:18:50.220 There's no credibility in a story like that in a place like our media.

00:18:55.540 It doesn't mean it's false, and it doesn't mean anybody's lying.

00:19:01.020 I'm just saying, as a consumer, you certainly can't trust it.

00:19:06.200 But that's just the press.

00:19:08.220 Sure, we know the press is bad, but what about social media?

00:19:12.620 Well, according to an account called Disinformation Expert Lizzie on X,

00:19:18.700 Google now has an option for your news searches,

00:19:21.820 so you can search if you're looking for left-leaning bias or right-leaning bias.

00:19:29.080 They don't call it bias.

00:19:30.080 They would just say right-leaning news and left-leaning news.

00:19:33.240 So what would happen if you clicked on the right-leaning news?

00:19:37.360 Now, that's interesting, isn't it?

00:19:39.200 Because that means that Google would be deciding which entities of right-leaning news are the good ones.

00:19:48.060 So what comes up first?

00:19:50.120 Well, according to Disinformation Expert Lizzie, 0.70

00:19:54.900 you would see...

00:19:56.200 Let's see, you'd see The Dispatch.

00:20:03.740 You'd see RT International.

00:20:06.160 That's literally the Russian publication.

00:20:09.900 And that's what you'd see first.

00:20:12.240 But you'd have to look a little further to find the Daily Caller, Breitbart, Federalist,

00:20:17.300 Just the News, or the Post Millennium.

00:20:20.120 And some, you know, more, let's say, right-leaning, right-leaning sources.

00:20:27.560 So Google has found a way to show you what you want to show, what you want to see,

00:20:35.220 while not showing you what you want to see.

00:20:39.700 Do you think that the people who programmed this didn't know which sources

00:20:44.920 people on the right consider credible?

00:20:47.820 Or are they just telling you you should see the Russia Today source is more credible

00:20:54.700 than, let's say, the Federalists?

00:20:58.120 Really?

00:21:00.320 This is so obviously finger-on-the-scale.

00:21:03.120 It's just...

00:21:03.820 I don't even know what to say about it.

00:21:05.440 It's just so obviously wrong.

00:22:23.180 All right, I saw yet another one of these interviews on the streets

00:22:28.080 where people were asked if they were supporters of Kamala Harris,

00:22:32.600 asked, can you name her accomplishments?

00:22:36.020 Now, it's some kind of a trick question

00:22:37.880 because vice presidents are not noted for accomplishments.

00:22:42.520 So if you're a casual viewer of news,

00:22:45.700 it's going to be a hard question to answer,

00:22:48.140 even if you're a supporter.

00:22:49.600 But it turns out that the people trying to answer

00:22:52.100 say stuff like, well, she's, well, I just,

00:22:57.160 I just, well, you know, I'm comfortable having a woman of color.

00:23:01.540 So they kind of default to the fact that they don't know anything

00:23:05.700 about her policies or anything about her accomplishments,

00:23:08.860 but they still prefer because of her identity.

00:23:13.540 And the people on the street, their supporters,

00:23:15.960 will say that directly and very clearly say

00:23:18.900 they don't know anything about policies or accomplishments.

00:23:20.800 Just, it's time for a person who's a woman and a person of color. 0.99

00:23:29.800 To me, it seems like, you know,

00:23:33.220 the model I love is the Trump pirate ship,

00:23:36.700 you know, with the people who used to be Democrats,

00:23:38.900 people who used to be non-political,

00:23:41.360 you know, all the unusual characters,

00:23:44.320 but in many cases, very effective, like a pirate ship.

00:23:48.880 You know, the pirate ship is good at pirating, 0.99

00:23:51.360 you know, good at doing what it does.

00:23:53.320 So I feel like the Trump pirate ship 0.90

00:23:56.180 has to rescue the brainwashed maidens.

00:23:59.220 It's starting to form like a movie in my head

00:24:01.500 where there's this mass brainwashing of primarily women, 1.00

00:24:07.260 at least in the Democrat party.

00:24:09.300 They seem to have the power.

00:24:10.800 And the women have been convinced 1.00

00:24:13.160 that they don't need to know about the policies

00:24:15.180 or any details about politics at all.

00:24:18.880 They can kind of just look at the identity

00:24:20.600 of the person running and that's good.

00:24:22.820 And then they can hear all the hoaxes about Trump.

00:24:26.020 And they say, well,

00:24:27.160 if all of these things about Trump are true,

00:24:30.260 all I need is anybody else.

00:24:32.300 And if I'm going to have anybody else,

00:24:34.100 I'd rather have somebody who's got that identity that I like.

00:24:37.920 So it feels like really the pirate ship

00:24:40.960 needs to rescue the brainwashed maidens. 0.83

00:24:43.160 That's the movie I'm seeing in my head.

00:24:46.220 Ben Shapiro points out that Harris has allegedly

00:24:50.340 reversed her 2020 positions on all of these things.

00:24:55.840 Decriminalizing border crossings,

00:24:58.180 the border wall itself,

00:25:00.940 abolishing private health insurance.

00:25:02.780 So these are things she no longer believes,

00:25:04.540 but used to.

00:25:05.000 EV mandates that you have to have an electric car at some point.

00:25:11.680 Banning fracking, no longer in favor of that,

00:25:14.460 and opposing more police.

00:25:15.800 And now she says maybe more police would be a good idea.

00:25:19.000 One, two, three, four, five, six.

00:25:21.080 That would be six pretty important policies

00:25:24.540 that none of her,

00:25:27.760 I don't think any of her followers have any idea

00:25:30.780 what her positions are in these.

00:25:32.220 And I'm not sure I do.

00:25:34.600 Because there are alleged changes.

00:25:37.740 So some of them I know.

00:25:39.120 I mean,

00:25:39.360 she does seem to be at least a little bit in favor of,

00:25:42.220 yeah,

00:25:42.340 I think I know most of these are actual switches.

00:25:47.520 So the one thing that's very obvious

00:25:52.260 is that voters and their opinions

00:25:55.060 are not going to have a lot to do with the election.

00:25:58.600 Because whatever it is that voters are thinking

00:26:01.100 as their priority for why they're voting,

00:26:03.360 that's purely brainwashing.

00:26:06.060 Just purely brainwashing.

00:26:08.520 The thought that voters do their own research

00:26:12.100 and come up with their excellent opinions

00:26:15.760 and then vote on it.

00:26:17.020 There's nothing like that happening.

00:26:19.240 Because first of all,

00:26:19.940 there's no data that's believable.

00:26:23.680 Secondly,

00:26:24.260 people aren't even trying.

00:26:26.040 Now when I say people are not trying,

00:26:27.560 I'm talking about 80 to 90% of the public.

00:26:30.660 And it would be true on both sides.

00:26:32.400 But what's true on the Republican side

00:26:34.780 is if you ask any Republican

00:26:37.500 what Trump thinks on

00:26:40.100 any of the top 20 issues,

00:26:45.160 I'll bet you you would have something

00:26:47.180 like 100% accuracy.

00:26:50.460 I think.

00:26:52.340 Let me try one.

00:26:54.160 Does Trump want to build a wall?

00:26:57.660 Yeah.

00:26:58.620 Does Trump want an EV mandate?

00:27:01.720 Everybody knows the answer to that question.

00:27:03.580 Of course he doesn't.

00:27:04.480 Does Trump,

00:27:05.880 is Trump in favor of endless wars overseas

00:27:08.860 for all of our NATO or other reasons?

00:27:12.380 No.

00:27:12.900 He wants to negotiate an end.

00:27:15.120 Now I don't think there's anything I can think of

00:27:17.360 where I don't perfectly know

00:27:19.400 what Trump's general approach to it is.

00:27:23.540 And all of his,

00:27:25.320 all of his supporters

00:27:27.020 could answer those questions.

00:27:28.660 I think.

00:27:29.500 I think literally all of them.

00:27:31.080 But to find a Democrat

00:27:33.740 who could even explain

00:27:34.960 what Harris's opinions are,

00:27:37.400 I don't think you could find one.

00:27:39.840 To me,

00:27:40.520 the strongest commercial

00:27:41.620 that you could do

00:27:43.680 would be lots of reports

00:27:46.140 of Biden voters

00:27:47.780 not knowing why they're voting.

00:27:50.420 But you want to get the ones

00:27:52.620 who look worst on camera.

00:27:55.200 Now I don't mean physically unattractive,

00:27:57.340 although that would be good.

00:27:58.820 Because remember,

00:27:59.400 you work on persuasion.

00:28:00.460 If you were to show

00:28:01.840 a whole bunch of interviews,

00:28:04.100 let's say maybe three per ad,

00:28:06.240 you don't need to overdo it.

00:28:08.860 You just show three people

00:28:10.200 who are for Harris

00:28:11.940 and can't explain why

00:28:13.240 and have no idea

00:28:14.680 what she's ever done. 1.00

00:28:16.520 Make them look like idiots. 1.00

00:28:18.620 So the one I was mentioning earlier 1.00

00:28:20.040 where there were,

00:28:21.080 you know,

00:28:21.320 some more street interviews,

00:28:22.840 they may have deleted out

00:28:24.640 or edited out

00:28:25.720 any smart people

00:28:26.760 who had smart answers.

00:28:27.780 So, you know,

00:28:30.100 I worry that the context

00:28:31.280 was altered to influence me

00:28:33.600 to think that nobody knows

00:28:35.600 what Harris is up to.

00:28:37.560 It could be they deleted those.

00:28:39.620 How would I know?

00:28:40.860 But it would be super persuasive

00:28:42.820 to show person after person

00:28:45.240 who is a Harris voter 1.00

00:28:46.640 looking like an uninformed idiot. 1.00

00:28:48.600 Do you know why? 1.00

00:28:50.820 Let's see if you can

00:28:51.540 complete this thought.

00:28:53.480 Why would it be persuasive

00:28:55.300 to show lots of Harris voters

00:28:58.080 not knowing anything

00:28:59.040 about anything?

00:29:01.780 The reason is

00:29:02.900 that people are team players,

00:29:05.920 but they don't want to be

00:29:07.200 on the team 1.00

00:29:07.740 that looks like idiots. 1.00

00:29:09.500 They don't want to be 1.00

00:29:10.180 on a team

00:29:10.600 that's full of humiliated 1.00

00:29:12.580 dumbos. 0.99

00:29:13.760 So if you simply 0.99

00:29:15.640 lightly made the case

00:29:17.420 that Harris supporters 1.00

00:29:18.460 are idiots, 1.00

00:29:20.400 but you don't say that, 1.00

00:29:22.140 that would be a huge mistake

00:29:23.300 because you don't want to

00:29:24.280 you don't want to be

00:29:25.340 insulting American voters.

00:29:27.120 You simply want to show

00:29:28.460 three of them real people

00:29:29.840 and how they are, 1.00

00:29:31.500 in fact, idiots. 1.00

00:29:32.520 You don't need to say anything. 1.00

00:29:34.500 Just show them

00:29:35.500 because especially women 1.00

00:29:38.200 are going to make decisions

00:29:40.260 based on who they feel

00:29:41.280 comfortable associating with.

00:29:42.940 One of the things

00:29:44.380 about MAGA supporters

00:29:45.620 is they don't care

00:29:47.440 what you think.

00:29:50.100 They're going to support Trump

00:29:51.500 even if you hate it.

00:29:54.760 But I don't think

00:29:55.560 the same thing works

00:29:56.540 on the left.

00:29:58.580 On the left,

00:29:59.480 I think they're really

00:30:00.220 going to care

00:30:00.860 that they're doing

00:30:01.980 the right thing

00:30:02.680 according to other people.

00:30:04.380 So they want to be judged

00:30:05.620 by other people,

00:30:06.800 not their own opinions.

00:30:08.920 So if you show

00:30:09.840 that their fellow voters 0.99

00:30:11.580 are dullards, 1.00

00:30:15.000 they're going to think, 1.00

00:30:16.020 why am I on this team?

00:30:17.740 That pirate ship

00:30:18.580 is looking kind of good today.

00:30:23.100 Well, General McMasters

00:30:25.600 is telling a story

00:30:28.560 that has no real credibility

00:30:30.560 the way it's told.

00:30:32.440 But Hillary Clinton 0.99

00:30:33.580 is mocking Trump

00:30:34.680 by quoting McMasters.

00:30:37.080 So McMasters,

00:30:38.060 who was a national security advisor

00:30:40.200 for Trump,

00:30:41.620 but he was a controversial one.

00:30:44.100 Let's just say

00:30:44.840 there were some pro-Trump people

00:30:46.480 who know more than I do,

00:30:48.120 who thought he was

00:30:49.380 more of a problem

00:30:50.180 in the administration

00:30:51.120 than a solution.

00:30:52.700 So I'm not so sure

00:30:54.140 that his credibility

00:30:55.620 is high among the people

00:30:56.820 on the right,

00:30:57.380 but the people

00:30:58.580 on the left

00:30:59.020 don't know that.

00:31:00.660 So the people

00:31:01.360 on the left

00:31:01.860 would think

00:31:02.340 this is some

00:31:03.000 loyal person of Trump

00:31:04.520 who's now saying

00:31:05.260 bad things.

00:31:06.420 If you knew it was

00:31:07.800 maybe not

00:31:09.080 the most reliable

00:31:10.140 person

00:31:11.680 and that

00:31:12.940 that was

00:31:13.380 well debated

00:31:15.120 while he was

00:31:16.460 in that position,

00:31:18.340 you might feel

00:31:19.460 that maybe

00:31:19.920 there's some bias

00:31:20.800 creeping into

00:31:21.540 his reporting.

00:31:23.160 But he says

00:31:24.140 that Trump said

00:31:24.900 two things,

00:31:25.460 quote,

00:31:26.060 why don't we just 0.99

00:31:27.040 bomb the drugs, 1.00

00:31:28.160 talking about Mexico, 0.56

00:31:29.940 and quote,

00:31:30.500 why don't we take out

00:31:31.400 the whole North Korean 0.99

00:31:32.260 army during one

00:31:33.200 of their parades?

00:31:35.880 Now Hillary Clinton

00:31:37.080 reports those two things

00:31:38.480 as though no explanation

00:31:40.620 needs to be given.

00:31:42.620 Here's my take.

00:31:44.120 Number one,

00:31:44.740 why don't we just 1.00

00:31:45.360 bomb the drugs? 0.99

00:31:46.880 That's literally

00:31:47.700 the position

00:31:50.120 of all the top

00:31:51.220 Republican candidates

00:31:52.700 that we should have

00:31:54.300 some military

00:31:55.060 reaction to the

00:31:56.240 fentanyl stuff

00:31:57.060 in Mexico.

00:31:58.700 What's wrong

00:31:59.340 with asking

00:31:59.840 that question?

00:32:01.600 If the answer

00:32:02.860 is no,

00:32:03.840 we shouldn't do it

00:32:04.720 and here are the

00:32:05.380 reasons,

00:32:06.260 it's still a good

00:32:08.060 question

00:32:08.500 because I don't

00:32:10.320 know the reasons.

00:32:11.580 Do you?

00:32:12.660 I mean,

00:32:12.960 I can say obvious

00:32:13.780 things like

00:32:14.420 you don't want

00:32:15.260 to attack Mexico, 0.84

00:32:17.540 blah, blah, blah,

00:32:18.140 but we're also

00:32:19.080 looking at

00:32:19.780 unprecedented

00:32:21.340 number of deaths

00:32:22.600 in the United States,

00:32:23.320 so you want

00:32:24.320 to do things

00:32:24.800 you haven't

00:32:25.160 done before

00:32:25.700 if that's

00:32:26.520 what needs

00:32:26.940 to be done.

00:32:28.380 So no,

00:32:28.960 it's a perfectly

00:32:29.780 reasonable question.

00:32:31.120 Why don't we 0.99

00:32:31.560 just bomb the drugs? 0.99

00:32:34.440 If the answer

00:32:35.380 is there are

00:32:35.960 really good reasons,

00:32:37.280 well,

00:32:37.460 why don't you

00:32:37.840 tell us?

00:32:38.880 If you know

00:32:39.620 the really good

00:32:40.280 reasons for not

00:32:41.040 doing it,

00:32:42.060 I'd love to know.

00:32:44.080 Why don't you

00:32:44.580 fill me in

00:32:45.200 instead of just

00:32:46.300 acting like it's

00:32:47.160 obviously a bad

00:32:48.000 idea when I

00:32:50.000 don't know that?

00:32:50.660 It might be.

00:32:53.800 I'm open to

00:32:54.560 the argument,

00:32:55.700 but without an

00:32:56.380 argument,

00:32:57.140 I think it's

00:32:57.880 the right question.

00:32:59.160 How about

00:32:59.440 the second one?

00:33:02.060 Why don't we

00:33:02.720 take out the

00:33:03.200 whole North 0.92

00:33:03.640 Korean army

00:33:04.240 during one

00:33:04.760 of their

00:33:05.020 parades?

00:33:06.880 Do you

00:33:07.480 think that's

00:33:08.080 serious?

00:33:09.900 Does that

00:33:10.440 sound like

00:33:11.240 a serious,

00:33:12.620 like he wants

00:33:13.700 to maybe

00:33:14.320 take out

00:33:14.860 all of Korea

00:33:15.520 with one

00:33:16.220 swoop?

00:33:17.840 No.

00:33:18.360 here's how

00:33:19.780 you should

00:33:20.280 interpret this

00:33:21.060 if you're

00:33:21.460 not an 1.00

00:33:22.220 idiot general. 1.00

00:33:23.900 The way 1.00

00:33:24.580 you should

00:33:24.760 interpret it

00:33:25.320 is if we

00:33:27.640 have a bunch

00:33:28.220 of battle

00:33:28.760 plans drawn

00:33:29.520 up,

00:33:30.880 wouldn't it

00:33:31.500 make sense

00:33:32.040 that at

00:33:32.420 least one

00:33:32.820 of them

00:33:33.140 would include 0.98

00:33:34.500 bombing their

00:33:35.220 military parade

00:33:36.080 if they have

00:33:36.540 all their

00:33:36.880 good assets

00:33:37.680 there?

00:33:38.780 It's a

00:33:39.440 perfectly good

00:33:40.140 question,

00:33:40.960 but not

00:33:41.580 super serious.

00:33:42.800 It doesn't

00:33:43.600 mean that you

00:33:44.020 want to do

00:33:44.580 it preemptively.

00:33:45.600 See, the

00:33:47.460 implication is

00:33:48.420 he wanted

00:33:48.740 to just

00:33:49.360 do it.

00:33:51.720 No, he

00:33:52.340 didn't because

00:33:53.860 nobody would

00:33:54.640 say that.

00:33:56.100 Literally, no

00:33:57.100 one would say,

00:33:58.060 remember, this

00:33:58.660 is how you

00:33:59.040 know the

00:33:59.360 hoax.

00:34:00.480 You can

00:34:00.840 tell the

00:34:01.200 hoaxes by

00:34:02.540 saying, would

00:34:03.080 anybody really

00:34:03.760 say that?

00:34:05.020 Would anybody

00:34:05.600 say, why

00:34:06.200 don't we 0.99

00:34:06.600 bomb the 1.00

00:34:07.400 cartels?

00:34:08.220 Yes, they

00:34:08.580 would.

00:34:09.660 Yeah, I

00:34:10.080 say it.

00:34:11.220 Vivek said

00:34:11.800 it.

00:34:12.780 It's commonly

00:34:13.780 said.

00:34:14.860 So, yes,

00:34:15.400 you could

00:34:15.800 believe that

00:34:16.440 Trump or

00:34:17.180 anybody else

00:34:18.040 would reasonably

00:34:19.680 ask, can

00:34:21.340 you tell me

00:34:21.720 the pros and

00:34:22.300 cons of

00:34:22.780 doing this?

00:34:24.040 Perfectly

00:34:24.520 reasonable

00:34:24.840 question.

00:34:25.420 Yes, you

00:34:25.780 probably asked

00:34:26.280 that.

00:34:27.680 But do you

00:34:28.140 really think

00:34:28.980 that Trump

00:34:30.340 said, why

00:34:30.920 don't we

00:34:31.280 preemptively?

00:34:32.520 Because

00:34:32.820 preemptively is

00:34:33.660 kind of

00:34:34.000 implied, right?

00:34:35.840 If we were

00:34:36.600 in the middle

00:34:37.000 of a war

00:34:37.540 that was

00:34:38.080 unavoidable,

00:34:39.840 then do you

00:34:40.840 think McMasters

00:34:41.680 would have a

00:34:42.360 problem with

00:34:42.900 bombing the

00:34:43.680 parade?

00:34:44.080 No, not

00:34:45.520 if you're

00:34:45.780 in a war.

00:34:46.980 So, obviously,

00:34:47.800 the context

00:34:48.380 is, if we

00:34:50.400 were in a

00:34:50.760 war, wouldn't

00:34:51.220 that be an

00:34:51.680 obvious attack

00:34:53.180 factor?

00:34:54.180 It's just sort

00:34:54.980 of an obvious

00:34:55.580 and funny thing

00:34:56.560 to say.

00:34:57.540 I might have

00:34:58.160 said the same

00:34:58.700 thing because I

00:35:00.200 didn't think it

00:35:00.720 would get out,

00:35:01.600 but then this 1.00

00:35:02.140 asshole decides 1.00

00:35:03.540 that a private 1.00

00:35:04.120 conversation with

00:35:04.980 the president

00:35:05.420 needs to be

00:35:06.100 published in

00:35:06.540 the book.

00:35:07.540 Not cool.

00:35:09.120 Not cool.

00:35:09.760 By the way,

00:35:11.140 I have also

00:35:11.920 said some

00:35:12.440 things that

00:35:13.100 were said

00:35:13.460 privately with

00:35:14.880 Trump, but

00:35:16.480 only because

00:35:16.860 they make

00:35:17.160 him look

00:35:17.440 good.

00:35:19.560 He's not

00:35:20.180 going to

00:35:20.380 complain about

00:35:20.920 that, that

00:35:22.220 he did

00:35:22.780 something that

00:35:23.220 makes him

00:35:23.500 look smart

00:35:24.060 and well

00:35:24.680 informed.

00:35:25.620 So, if

00:35:26.100 you say

00:35:26.460 that, oh,

00:35:28.040 that's fair.

00:35:29.340 You're not

00:35:30.160 giving up some

00:35:31.020 confidence or

00:35:31.760 something like

00:35:32.260 that.

00:35:32.660 You shouldn't

00:35:33.260 do it.

00:35:34.400 You probably

00:35:34.820 shouldn't do

00:35:35.360 it, but as

00:35:36.360 long as it

00:35:36.720 makes the

00:35:37.240 president look

00:35:38.020 good, who's

00:35:38.820 going to

00:35:39.080 complain, 0.54

00:35:39.560 really.

00:35:42.180 Anyway, so

00:35:42.860 I do that

00:35:43.320 too, but

00:35:44.700 not about

00:35:45.120 things that 0.97

00:35:45.600 are dumb. 1.00

00:35:46.580 Claudia was 1.00

00:35:47.160 leaving for

00:35:47.580 her pickleball

00:35:48.160 tournament.

00:35:48.700 I've been

00:35:48.960 visualizing my

00:35:49.760 match all

00:35:50.420 week.

00:35:51.220 She was so

00:35:51.820 focused on

00:35:52.320 visualizing that

00:35:53.200 she didn't

00:35:53.640 see the column

00:35:54.180 behind her

00:35:54.660 car on her

00:35:55.360 backhand side.

00:35:57.260 Good thing

00:35:57.920 Claudia's with

00:35:58.540 Intact, the

00:35:59.360 insurer with

00:35:59.960 the largest

00:36:00.440 network of

00:36:01.020 auto service

00:36:01.500 centers in

00:36:02.140 the country.

00:36:02.940 Everything was

00:36:03.480 taken care of

00:36:04.100 under one

00:36:04.580 roof and she 0.79

00:36:05.220 was on her

00:36:05.640 way in a

00:36:06.000 rental car in

00:36:06.760 no time.

00:36:07.480 I made it to

00:36:08.120 my tournament.

00:36:08.820 And lost in

00:36:09.940 the first

00:36:10.240 round.

00:36:10.960 But you

00:36:11.440 got there on

00:36:12.060 time.

00:36:12.740 Intact

00:36:13.040 insurance, your

00:36:14.000 auto service

00:36:14.640 ace.

00:36:15.340 Certain conditions

00:36:15.880 apply.

00:36:17.260 So Jack

00:36:17.740 Smith is

00:36:18.520 re-indicting,

00:36:20.060 rewrote his

00:36:20.680 indictment of

00:36:21.480 the president

00:36:23.120 because the

00:36:24.240 Supreme Court

00:36:24.940 ruled on that

00:36:25.880 presidential

00:36:27.080 immunity thing,

00:36:28.180 which meant he

00:36:28.680 had to rewrite

00:36:29.340 it to get rid

00:36:30.040 of that objection.

00:36:31.560 So here's

00:36:32.140 what's left.

00:36:32.840 So there are

00:36:33.980 four charges

00:36:34.840 left, I

00:36:35.460 believe.

00:36:38.920 Conspiracy to

00:36:39.820 defraud the

00:36:40.500 U.S.

00:36:42.220 I don't even

00:36:43.140 know what that

00:36:43.520 refers to.

00:36:45.360 Do you?

00:36:47.820 Conspiracy to

00:36:48.740 defraud.

00:36:51.120 I think that

00:36:52.140 everything he did

00:36:52.800 was transparent.

00:36:54.680 Is it

00:36:55.480 defrauding if

00:36:56.280 it's transparent?

00:36:58.520 Transparently,

00:36:59.220 they wanted to

00:36:59.900 have an alternate

00:37:01.060 set of electors.

00:37:03.500 Completely

00:37:04.060 transparently,

00:37:05.100 they were

00:37:05.600 doubting the

00:37:06.320 election results

00:37:07.200 and were

00:37:07.620 asking for

00:37:08.220 recounts.

00:37:10.240 Completely

00:37:10.800 transparently,

00:37:12.260 they were

00:37:12.620 asking for a

00:37:13.520 short delay

00:37:14.240 so they could

00:37:14.860 look more

00:37:15.420 carefully in

00:37:17.100 some places.

00:37:19.980 What part of

00:37:20.580 that is the

00:37:21.380 conspiracy to

00:37:22.820 defraud?

00:37:24.360 All I see

00:37:25.060 is a process

00:37:26.180 that the

00:37:27.460 courts would

00:37:27.980 work out like

00:37:28.700 they often do.

00:37:29.600 if Trump

00:37:30.960 was doing

00:37:31.400 something that

00:37:32.120 the courts

00:37:32.620 were not

00:37:33.020 going to

00:37:33.440 accept,

00:37:34.700 I think

00:37:35.320 that's all

00:37:35.760 it would

00:37:35.980 have been.

00:37:36.900 Where's

00:37:37.340 this conspiracy

00:37:38.140 to defraud?

00:37:38.920 How do you

00:37:39.160 even get

00:37:39.500 that?

00:37:40.560 Wouldn't

00:37:40.980 you have to

00:37:41.440 read their

00:37:41.820 minds?

00:37:43.400 Because unless

00:37:44.360 you read

00:37:44.800 their minds,

00:37:45.500 it looked like

00:37:46.120 a bunch of

00:37:46.540 people who

00:37:46.940 thought an

00:37:47.260 election was

00:37:47.940 rigged and

00:37:49.180 were trying to

00:37:49.700 figure out is

00:37:50.900 there any

00:37:51.220 way to

00:37:51.760 create a

00:37:53.540 pushback to

00:37:54.920 what looks

00:37:55.280 like a

00:37:55.580 rigged

00:37:55.820 election.

00:37:56.140 So the

00:37:57.560 first one

00:37:57.920 looks like

00:37:58.280 mind reading.

00:38:01.220 Second one,

00:38:02.080 conspiracy to

00:38:02.980 obstruct an

00:38:03.680 official proceeding.

00:38:06.280 And then a

00:38:07.080 related one,

00:38:07.840 obstruction of

00:38:08.560 an attempt to

00:38:09.220 obstruct an

00:38:09.860 official proceeding.

00:38:11.140 Now I'm no

00:38:11.840 lawyer, but those

00:38:12.600 look like the 1.00

00:38:13.120 same fucking 1.00

00:38:13.700 things. 1.00

00:38:15.420 I'm sure there's

00:38:16.340 some little

00:38:16.700 difference that

00:38:18.080 they can use.

00:38:19.960 But correct me

00:38:21.400 if I'm wrong,

00:38:22.120 but wasn't that

00:38:22.740 the Enron

00:38:23.500 problem?

00:38:24.000 that the

00:38:25.380 laws about

00:38:26.480 obstructing

00:38:27.200 an official

00:38:27.640 proceedings were

00:38:29.520 originally created

00:38:31.040 because Enron got

00:38:32.240 rid of some

00:38:32.680 records when the

00:38:33.600 government was

00:38:34.120 trying to

00:38:34.480 investigate them,

00:38:35.400 something like

00:38:35.760 that, and

00:38:36.920 that nobody

00:38:37.800 really thinks

00:38:38.440 that would

00:38:38.780 have applied

00:38:39.280 to this

00:38:39.680 situation.

00:38:40.800 It was meant

00:38:41.300 for a different

00:38:41.820 context.

00:38:43.420 So you got

00:38:43.840 one that doesn't

00:38:44.600 make any sense

00:38:45.420 unless you're a

00:38:46.060 mind reader and

00:38:47.220 you incorrectly

00:38:48.340 read minds.

00:38:50.000 And the other

00:38:50.600 is two Enron

00:38:51.940 related things that

00:38:52.980 don't even look

00:38:53.540 like the law

00:38:54.160 should apply.

00:38:55.460 And the

00:38:55.680 Supreme Court

00:38:56.280 would just

00:38:56.660 toss it out.

00:38:57.260 It's like,

00:38:57.440 what the hell 0.84

00:38:57.700 are you doing? 0.95

00:38:58.100 This doesn't

00:38:58.480 even apply to

00:38:59.040 this situation.

00:39:00.580 And then the

00:39:01.220 fourth one is

00:39:01.900 conspiracy against

00:39:03.140 rights, which

00:39:04.480 again, sounds

00:39:05.800 like just some 0.99

00:39:06.500 fucking thing 1.00

00:39:07.120 they made up. 1.00

00:39:08.380 Now, I'm not

00:39:09.240 doubting that

00:39:09.800 there's something

00:39:10.320 written down

00:39:10.920 somewhere that's

00:39:11.600 a law with

00:39:12.180 these words, but

00:39:13.480 do you think

00:39:13.880 that even sounds

00:39:14.980 real?

00:39:16.220 This doesn't

00:39:16.920 even sound

00:39:17.660 real.

00:39:18.800 I'm not a

00:39:19.280 lawyer, but at

00:39:19.920 least when a

00:39:21.320 lawyer charges

00:39:22.000 somebody with

00:39:22.600 something, I

00:39:23.080 go, huh, if

00:39:24.440 it's true, that

00:39:25.980 sounds like a

00:39:26.660 crime.

00:39:27.540 Why is it that

00:39:28.560 even if these

00:39:29.420 things were true,

00:39:30.140 they wouldn't

00:39:30.480 sound like crimes

00:39:31.260 to me?

00:39:32.340 It would sound

00:39:33.020 like two that

00:39:33.660 don't apply because

00:39:34.500 they were supposed

00:39:35.080 to be, you know,

00:39:35.800 Enron, that kind

00:39:37.360 of behavior.

00:39:38.800 And two don't

00:39:39.600 even sound like

00:39:40.260 crimes, unless

00:39:42.460 again, you're

00:39:43.060 reading minds and

00:39:43.940 finding something

00:39:44.560 that's probably not

00:39:45.320 in there.

00:39:45.680 Now, according

00:39:49.440 to an account

00:39:50.080 called the

00:39:50.620 Texas One, here's

00:39:52.980 a little factoid

00:39:53.840 you probably

00:39:54.300 didn't know.

00:39:56.060 Not that it's

00:39:56.840 important.

00:39:58.420 I mean, this

00:39:58.840 doesn't mean

00:39:59.280 anything.

00:40:00.000 This is just a

00:40:00.860 random coincidence.

00:40:03.900 Are you ready

00:40:04.260 for a random

00:40:04.920 coincidence?

00:40:06.840 Jack Smith's

00:40:07.820 wife produced 1.00

00:40:09.620 the Netflix

00:40:10.360 Obama documentary

00:40:11.880 called Becoming

00:40:12.760 Michelle.

00:40:13.240 So, Jack

00:40:17.540 Smith is a

00:40:18.220 totally unbiased

00:40:19.220 player.

00:40:22.040 Okay.

00:40:23.560 Mike Benz is

00:40:24.640 warning us that

00:40:25.400 that arrest of

00:40:27.680 the Telegram CEO

00:40:28.800 in France, he

00:40:30.680 says, this is

00:40:32.480 what Mike Benz

00:40:33.140 says about that,

00:40:34.020 Mark my words,

00:40:35.000 you're going to

00:40:35.420 see so many

00:40:35.980 pieces suddenly

00:40:36.720 rush-agating that

00:40:38.840 CEO named

00:40:39.680 Pavel Durov.

00:40:41.480 It'll make your

00:40:42.060 head spin.

00:40:43.240 So, here's

00:40:46.180 what we know.

00:40:46.780 Two weeks, I

00:40:47.580 think this is

00:40:48.100 Benz as well,

00:40:49.380 two weeks after

00:40:50.880 Tucker interviewed

00:40:51.880 the founder of

00:40:53.580 Telegram, the

00:40:55.240 CIA founded

00:40:56.240 Radio for

00:40:56.840 Europe, that

00:40:57.860 was run

00:40:58.300 directly by the

00:40:59.000 CIA for its

00:40:59.840 first 20 years,

00:41:00.960 ran a long

00:41:01.540 piece insinuating

00:41:02.600 Russia was 0.98

00:41:03.460 secretly controlling

00:41:04.720 Telegram and

00:41:06.480 Ukraine must

00:41:07.280 seize control of

00:41:08.140 it because it's

00:41:09.860 a military

00:41:10.460 intelligence thing.

00:41:11.840 two, and

00:41:15.700 then there's

00:41:16.040 also some

00:41:17.900 seemingly

00:41:19.180 unrelated

00:41:19.820 events that

00:41:20.720 seem connected.

00:41:21.780 Here's the

00:41:22.300 big picture, as

00:41:23.860 best I understand

00:41:24.940 it.

00:41:26.140 Whatever country

00:41:27.180 could control

00:41:28.220 and get a

00:41:29.000 back door to

00:41:29.800 the Telegram

00:41:30.560 app would

00:41:31.980 have a window

00:41:32.640 to all the

00:41:33.380 bad behavior of

00:41:34.460 all their

00:41:34.760 enemies and

00:41:35.860 all the

00:41:36.140 criminals.

00:41:37.560 So, imagine

00:41:38.340 how much Russia

00:41:40.000 wanted to

00:41:40.560 control that

00:41:41.240 app.

00:41:42.220 A lot.

00:41:43.880 Imagine how

00:41:44.620 much the

00:41:45.100 U.S.

00:41:45.540 wanted to

00:41:46.080 control that

00:41:46.780 app.

00:41:48.040 A lot.

00:41:49.900 Did you

00:41:50.340 know that

00:41:51.280 not too

00:41:51.680 long ago,

00:41:52.480 maybe a

00:41:52.960 couple years

00:41:53.300 ago,

00:41:56.060 Macron tried

00:41:57.900 to get that

00:41:58.640 same Telegram

00:41:59.500 guy to move

00:42:00.280 his office to

00:42:01.600 France.

00:42:03.580 Why would

00:42:04.300 they do

00:42:04.620 that?

00:42:05.620 Well, France

00:42:06.700 would really,

00:42:07.700 really like to

00:42:08.240 get a back

00:42:08.640 door into that

00:42:09.380 app.

00:42:09.660 or at

00:42:10.900 least have

00:42:12.020 control of

00:42:12.660 him so

00:42:13.040 they could

00:42:13.360 get that

00:42:13.700 back door.

00:42:15.120 So, it

00:42:15.340 turns out that

00:42:15.960 the Telegram

00:42:16.540 app, one

00:42:17.100 of two that

00:42:19.320 are the big

00:42:19.800 ones for

00:42:20.540 especially

00:42:21.340 international

00:42:22.300 entities forming

00:42:24.800 to be a

00:42:25.500 counterforce

00:42:26.240 against their

00:42:27.040 government,

00:42:27.640 etc., it was

00:42:29.360 WhatsApp and

00:42:31.400 Telegram.

00:42:31.920 but we

00:42:33.640 know that

00:42:34.080 WhatsApp is

00:42:34.780 now, we

00:42:35.680 believe,

00:42:36.620 completely

00:42:37.240 penetrated by

00:42:38.760 U.S.

00:42:39.480 intelligence

00:42:39.900 because they

00:42:40.400 put too

00:42:41.280 much pressure

00:42:41.820 on Facebook.

00:42:44.960 So, that

00:42:45.640 would mean

00:42:46.000 just Telegram

00:42:46.820 is the place

00:42:47.720 that the

00:42:48.220 baddies or

00:42:49.000 even the

00:42:49.420 goodies could

00:42:50.440 organize against

00:42:51.300 the government.

00:42:53.020 Everybody

00:42:53.540 needs to

00:42:54.240 control that.

00:42:55.360 It's just

00:42:55.840 way too

00:42:56.460 dangerous for

00:42:57.220 every country

00:42:58.000 to be on

00:42:58.460 the wrong

00:42:58.780 side of

00:42:59.380 knowing what

00:43:00.460 is and is

00:43:01.000 not happening

00:43:01.700 in that

00:43:02.080 app.

00:43:02.920 So, it

00:43:03.520 looks like

00:43:03.960 we're in

00:43:04.320 some kind

00:43:04.740 of much

00:43:05.240 larger battle

00:43:07.100 where all

00:43:08.040 of the

00:43:08.460 government

00:43:09.580 entities want

00:43:10.820 to be the

00:43:11.120 ones that

00:43:11.460 have that

00:43:11.780 back door.

00:43:13.600 And, you

00:43:14.000 know, maybe

00:43:14.320 France was 0.89

00:43:15.040 already working

00:43:15.760 with NATO

00:43:16.940 in the United

00:43:17.460 States and

00:43:18.000 it was more

00:43:18.380 of a Western

00:43:19.540 getting access

00:43:20.300 to it than

00:43:20.900 just France.

00:43:21.740 We don't

00:43:22.300 know that.

00:43:23.100 But there's

00:43:23.500 also some

00:43:24.320 bigger France

00:43:25.720 versus Russia 0.96

00:43:27.880 issue where

00:43:28.960 France has 0.69

00:43:29.600 a lot of

00:43:29.960 electricity

00:43:30.460 based on

00:43:31.120 nuclear power

00:43:31.920 and the

00:43:33.620 country of

00:43:34.080 Niger was 1.00

00:43:35.600 important to

00:43:36.360 getting France's 0.74

00:43:37.280 uranium but

00:43:38.340 Russia is 0.79

00:43:39.800 now back

00:43:41.660 to coup and

00:43:42.540 has more

00:43:42.960 control of

00:43:43.540 Niger and 0.98

00:43:44.100 France is

00:43:44.600 pulling out

00:43:45.200 and somehow

00:43:46.120 all of these

00:43:46.900 events seem

00:43:49.200 to be connected.

00:43:51.060 So, here's

00:43:51.820 my takeaway.

00:43:52.700 We're never

00:43:53.360 going to know

00:43:53.820 what this is

00:43:54.400 about.

00:43:55.940 We're going

00:43:56.520 to be able

00:43:56.800 to speculate

00:43:57.440 and some

00:43:58.360 of it's

00:43:58.680 obvious.

00:43:59.160 It's obvious

00:43:59.760 that every

00:44:00.280 intelligence

00:44:00.840 unit from

00:44:02.480 every country

00:44:03.240 wants to

00:44:04.260 control the

00:44:04.760 telegram app.

00:44:06.260 It's obvious

00:44:07.080 that they've

00:44:07.740 tried.

00:44:09.260 It's obvious

00:44:09.860 they'll keep

00:44:10.340 trying.

00:44:11.500 To me, it's

00:44:12.120 obvious that

00:44:12.820 his jailing

00:44:13.560 has more to

00:44:14.160 do with

00:44:14.540 getting control

00:44:15.280 of the app

00:44:16.020 than it does

00:44:17.300 to anything

00:44:17.860 he did

00:44:18.300 illegally, even

00:44:19.180 if he did

00:44:19.620 something illegal.

00:44:21.080 So, I don't

00:44:21.940 know if he did

00:44:22.400 anything illegal,

00:44:23.340 but certainly

00:44:24.140 not the reason

00:44:24.760 he got, you

00:44:25.800 know, it's not

00:44:26.200 the reason

00:44:26.500 he's being

00:44:26.900 held in

00:44:27.320 France, in

00:44:28.360 my opinion.

00:44:31.560 Anyway, then

00:44:32.860 we also know

00:44:33.440 that the,

00:44:34.480 according to

00:44:34.940 Next TV,

00:44:36.980 that's an

00:44:37.300 account on

00:44:37.800 X, that

00:44:39.040 the French

00:44:39.620 and the

00:44:40.040 UAE Intel

00:44:42.560 services, they

00:44:44.220 tried a joint

00:44:45.080 operation to

00:44:45.760 hack that

00:44:46.680 telegram CEO's

00:44:48.080 iPhone in

00:44:48.780 2017, according

00:44:49.780 to the Wall

00:44:50.180 Street Journal.

00:44:52.120 So, everybody's

00:44:53.720 been trying to

00:44:54.260 get into this

00:44:54.860 guy for a

00:44:56.280 long, long

00:44:56.840 time.

00:44:59.180 It was

00:44:59.840 2018 that

00:45:00.720 Macron invited

00:45:02.340 him to

00:45:02.760 lunch and

00:45:03.220 tried to

00:45:03.700 get him to

00:45:04.020 move to

00:45:04.320 France.

00:45:06.680 So, here's

00:45:07.920 some more

00:45:08.560 about the

00:45:08.920 press.

00:45:09.700 So, the

00:45:10.160 German police

00:45:10.940 are investigating

00:45:11.780 because some

00:45:13.240 citizen called

00:45:14.220 one of their 0.69

00:45:14.900 MPs fat.

00:45:18.000 So, they're

00:45:18.820 investigating a

00:45:19.680 user on the

00:45:20.280 Gab platform

00:45:21.200 who insulted

00:45:23.120 a Bundestag

00:45:24.060 MP online.

00:45:27.960 So, they're

00:45:28.660 seeking information

00:45:29.460 on the user,

00:45:30.120 but Gab is

00:45:30.680 refusing to

00:45:31.320 give it to

00:45:31.680 him.

00:45:34.640 This is a

00:45:35.540 true thing.

00:45:37.220 There might be

00:45:38.200 somebody who

00:45:38.820 could go to

00:45:39.380 jail for

00:45:39.900 calling a

00:45:40.840 very overweight 0.75

00:45:42.680 woman fat. 1.00

00:45:45.060 Now, my 0.99

00:45:46.740 question is

00:45:47.360 this.

00:45:47.720 Can it

00:45:49.260 ever be

00:45:49.780 hate speech

00:45:50.560 to say

00:45:51.260 something that's

00:45:51.940 both true and

00:45:52.940 obvious to

00:45:53.560 everyone?

00:45:54.860 What exactly

00:45:55.880 makes that

00:45:56.380 hate speech?

00:45:57.560 If you were

00:45:58.320 to say to

00:45:58.700 me, Scott,

00:45:59.740 you're bald,

00:46:01.740 is that

00:46:02.640 hate speech?

00:46:04.180 Because I'm

00:46:04.900 a little bit

00:46:05.400 bald.

00:46:06.720 If they

00:46:07.340 said to me,

00:46:07.920 Scott, you're

00:46:09.360 not six foot

00:46:10.680 two, well,

00:46:13.080 I might not

00:46:13.520 like it, but

00:46:15.740 is it hate

00:46:16.620 speech?

00:46:17.040 If it's

00:46:17.800 just obvious

00:46:18.620 and it's an

00:46:19.300 observation that

00:46:20.120 everybody can

00:46:20.680 make, if

00:46:22.280 they say,

00:46:22.940 you four-eyed 1.00

00:46:23.880 fuck, is 1.00

00:46:26.680 that an 1.00

00:46:26.980 insult?

00:46:28.000 I actually

00:46:28.940 do have

00:46:29.500 glasses.

00:46:31.280 What's the

00:46:32.020 insult of

00:46:32.620 it?

00:46:34.160 If somebody

00:46:35.500 does have,

00:46:37.700 you know,

00:46:38.240 they're carrying

00:46:39.000 a ton of

00:46:39.540 weight and

00:46:40.860 somebody makes

00:46:41.480 a comment

00:46:41.940 about it,

00:46:42.780 it's very

00:46:43.320 poor form.

00:46:44.540 It's not

00:46:44.880 something I

00:46:45.460 would prefer

00:46:46.100 to see.

00:46:47.040 But is

00:46:47.800 it hate

00:46:48.660 speech, if

00:46:49.760 it's both

00:46:50.220 obvious and

00:46:50.900 everybody can

00:46:51.460 see it?

00:46:52.080 If it's not

00:46:52.820 even an

00:46:53.200 opinion, if

00:46:54.660 it were an

00:46:55.100 opinion, then

00:46:57.660 I could see,

00:46:58.420 okay, you're

00:46:58.940 just bringing

00:46:59.360 some unpleasantness

00:47:00.420 into a place

00:47:01.020 that doesn't

00:47:01.440 need it.

00:47:02.400 But it's not

00:47:02.820 really an

00:47:03.180 opinion.

00:47:04.620 It's just an

00:47:05.660 observation.

00:47:06.740 It's an

00:47:07.300 unkind

00:47:07.780 observation, but

00:47:08.680 is that hate?

00:47:09.300 Well, so

00:47:10.900 here's my

00:47:11.580 second question.

00:47:13.320 If somebody

00:47:14.080 in America

00:47:14.620 said that,

00:47:16.060 could Germany

00:47:17.460 get them

00:47:17.960 extradited?

00:47:20.200 Can Americans

00:47:21.200 now get

00:47:21.840 picked up and

00:47:23.280 sent to other

00:47:23.980 countries to be

00:47:24.740 in jail for

00:47:26.020 their free speech

00:47:26.800 in America?

00:47:28.280 Is that

00:47:28.780 because it

00:47:30.300 looks like the

00:47:30.820 UK would have

00:47:31.900 the right to

00:47:32.460 extradite?

00:47:33.020 What about

00:47:34.620 Germany?

00:47:35.000 Well, I

00:47:37.160 don't know.

00:47:37.920 Dangerous

00:47:38.480 stuff.

00:47:40.840 Colin Rugg,

00:47:41.840 an ex, had

00:47:43.440 a good thread

00:47:44.380 about who's

00:47:45.780 really stealing

00:47:46.460 your democracy

00:47:47.280 here.

00:47:47.760 You know, of

00:47:48.080 course, Harris

00:47:48.580 says Trump

00:47:49.720 wants to steal

00:47:50.360 your democracy.

00:47:51.700 But here are

00:47:53.080 some things we

00:47:53.700 know that

00:47:54.140 Democrats are

00:47:54.820 behind recently.

00:47:55.960 When I found

00:47:56.520 out my friend

00:47:57.160 got a great

00:47:57.820 deal on a

00:47:58.480 wool coat

00:47:58.860 from Winners,

00:47:59.720 I started

00:48:00.480 wondering, is

00:48:01.660 every fabulous

00:48:02.720 item I see

00:48:03.420 from Winners?

00:48:04.080 Like that

00:48:05.000 woman over 0.99

00:48:05.500 there with

00:48:05.960 the designer

00:48:06.400 jeans.

00:48:07.260 Are those

00:48:07.820 from Winners?

00:48:08.720 Ooh, are

00:48:09.520 those beautiful

00:48:10.040 gold earrings?

00:48:11.200 Did she pay 0.97

00:48:11.640 full price?

00:48:12.540 Or that

00:48:12.820 leather tote?

00:48:13.560 Or that

00:48:13.820 cashmere

00:48:14.180 sweater?

00:48:14.760 Or those

00:48:15.100 knee-high

00:48:15.420 boots?

00:48:16.240 That dress?

00:48:17.020 That jacket?

00:48:17.700 Those shoes?

00:48:18.720 Is anyone

00:48:19.520 paying full

00:48:20.140 price for

00:48:20.700 anything?

00:48:21.680 Stop

00:48:22.140 wondering.

00:48:22.940 Start

00:48:23.180 winning.

00:48:23.880 Winners.

00:48:24.460 Find

00:48:24.700 fabulous for

00:48:25.500 less.

00:48:26.140 They're

00:48:26.620 forcing

00:48:27.200 RFK Jr.

00:48:29.000 to remain

00:48:29.740 on the ballot

00:48:30.420 in two

00:48:31.160 states because

00:48:33.180 they think

00:48:33.580 it'll be

00:48:33.860 bad for

00:48:34.300 Trump,

00:48:34.940 whereas they've

00:48:35.980 been spending

00:48:36.420 all their

00:48:36.780 time trying

00:48:37.240 to get

00:48:37.580 him off

00:48:38.020 the ballot

00:48:38.560 wherever they

00:48:40.220 thought it

00:48:40.560 would benefit

00:48:40.920 them.

00:48:41.600 So they're

00:48:41.960 not being

00:48:42.340 consistent about

00:48:43.260 whether RFK

00:48:43.940 should be on

00:48:44.640 or off the

00:48:45.160 ballot.

00:48:46.160 They're only

00:48:47.040 fighting it

00:48:47.900 depending on

00:48:48.740 whether they'll

00:48:49.260 win that

00:48:49.640 state.

00:48:50.940 That's their

00:48:51.660 democracy.

00:48:52.920 Democracy

00:48:53.440 there.

00:48:53.720 Now, what

00:48:58.720 Ben Shapiro

00:48:59.940 noted, he

00:49:01.160 said in

00:49:01.520 response to

00:49:02.780 the Democrats

00:49:03.460 trying to

00:49:04.280 keep RFK

00:49:05.860 Jr.

00:49:06.240 on some

00:49:06.700 of the

00:49:06.880 battleground

00:49:07.280 states, he

00:49:08.280 said Republicans

00:49:08.920 should move to

00:49:09.780 keep Joe

00:49:10.200 Biden's name

00:49:10.900 on the

00:49:11.180 ballot in

00:49:12.060 as many

00:49:12.420 swing states

00:49:13.080 as possible.

00:49:15.360 Huh.

00:49:16.720 Hmm.

00:49:17.720 How would

00:49:18.080 that work?

00:49:18.600 what if

00:49:20.180 you could

00:49:20.500 have Kamala

00:49:22.720 Harris on

00:49:23.180 the ballot

00:49:23.580 but also

00:49:25.180 Joe Biden

00:49:26.920 and Kamala

00:49:27.540 Harris and

00:49:29.440 suppose

00:49:29.940 between the

00:49:31.200 two of

00:49:31.540 them, if

00:49:32.400 you added

00:49:32.740 them together

00:49:33.420 Harris won

00:49:34.200 but only if

00:49:35.260 you added

00:49:35.580 them together

00:49:36.260 which they

00:49:37.900 wouldn't do.

00:49:39.380 What would

00:49:40.120 happen if

00:49:40.640 Biden was

00:49:41.340 on the

00:49:41.880 ballot in

00:49:43.200 some swing

00:49:44.840 states?

00:49:46.040 People would

00:49:46.840 actually vote

00:49:47.440 for Biden.

00:49:48.600 but they

00:49:49.660 would also

00:49:50.000 vote for

00:49:50.460 Harris and

00:49:51.960 it would

00:49:52.180 guarantee

00:49:52.580 that she

00:49:52.960 lost.

00:49:55.100 And I'm

00:49:55.740 looking at

00:49:56.140 this and

00:49:56.420 I'm thinking

00:49:56.760 huh, is

00:49:58.140 this like the

00:49:58.660 best idea

00:49:59.260 anybody ever

00:49:59.840 had?

00:50:01.960 If the

00:50:02.680 Democrats

00:50:03.080 open this

00:50:03.900 door that

00:50:05.340 you can use

00:50:05.900 the courts

00:50:06.360 to keep

00:50:06.780 somebody on

00:50:07.280 the ballot

00:50:07.640 when they

00:50:07.960 don't want

00:50:08.340 to be

00:50:08.560 there,

00:50:09.800 I'm no

00:50:11.120 lawyer but

00:50:13.080 if you

00:50:17.400 can force

00:50:17.940 somebody to

00:50:18.500 run for

00:50:18.880 president

00:50:19.360 who doesn't

00:50:20.520 want to,

00:50:21.960 why can't

00:50:22.540 you force

00:50:22.980 Biden to

00:50:23.860 do it?

00:50:25.220 Now my

00:50:25.620 guess is

00:50:26.380 that it

00:50:27.120 wouldn't be

00:50:27.460 as simple

00:50:27.940 as just

00:50:29.740 doing that

00:50:30.380 but as a

00:50:32.060 rhetorical

00:50:32.960 question,

00:50:34.920 it's kind

00:50:35.600 of awesome.

00:50:36.620 I don't know

00:50:37.320 why I didn't

00:50:37.640 think about it.

00:50:38.780 It's just

00:50:39.300 sort of a

00:50:39.720 good idea

00:50:40.200 to at

00:50:41.200 least look

00:50:41.580 into it.

00:50:42.840 At the

00:50:43.340 very least,

00:50:43.840 I'd be like

00:50:44.400 hmm, I

00:50:45.700 wonder if

00:50:46.040 there's any

00:50:46.420 obvious reason

00:50:47.220 you can't

00:50:47.660 do this.

00:50:48.680 I would

00:50:48.960 definitely

00:50:49.220 look into

00:50:49.720 it.

00:50:50.100 I don't

00:50:50.520 think it's

00:50:51.240 a practical

00:50:52.260 idea, but

00:50:54.520 wouldn't you

00:50:54.900 like to

00:50:55.280 know?

00:50:57.840 Well,

00:50:58.460 apparently

00:50:59.020 RFK Jr.

00:51:00.600 reveals,

00:51:01.880 according to

00:51:02.400 Colin Rugg,

00:51:03.680 that it'll

00:51:05.660 cost him

00:51:06.000 another $10

00:51:06.540 million to

00:51:07.380 defend against

00:51:08.320 Democrats who

00:51:09.580 wanted to keep

00:51:10.140 him off the

00:51:10.780 ballot.

00:51:11.660 So he's

00:51:11.980 going to be

00:51:12.260 fighting two

00:51:12.880 cases to

00:51:14.620 be taken

00:51:15.060 off and

00:51:15.580 to be

00:51:15.860 kept on.

00:51:18.320 It's just

00:51:18.980 whatever RFK

00:51:19.860 Jr. does,

00:51:20.540 somebody's going

00:51:20.980 to sue him

00:51:21.420 for it.

00:51:24.180 And then,

00:51:24.880 of course,

00:51:25.180 Jack Smith

00:51:26.140 filing the

00:51:29.060 new indictment

00:51:29.680 against Trump

00:51:30.240 just 70

00:51:30.820 days before

00:51:31.660 the election.

00:51:32.920 Some say

00:51:33.540 that should

00:51:33.940 never be

00:51:34.380 done.

00:51:36.420 Of course,

00:51:37.160 we know that

00:51:37.580 Zuckerberg

00:51:38.060 confirmed that

00:51:38.900 the Biden

00:51:39.260 administration

00:51:39.880 had pressured

00:51:41.140 him to

00:51:42.060 censor.

00:51:43.880 And we

00:51:44.600 know that

00:51:45.060 the media

00:51:45.540 has launched

00:51:46.280 a bunch of

00:51:46.840 slander campaigns

00:51:47.920 against RFK

00:51:49.060 Jr.,

00:51:50.060 especially

00:51:50.580 because he

00:51:51.620 cut the

00:51:52.260 head off 0.99

00:51:52.760 a whale.

00:51:55.720 Now,

00:51:56.620 if you

00:51:58.040 follow that

00:51:58.500 story about

00:51:59.200 RFK Jr.

00:52:00.180 found a

00:52:00.560 dead whale

00:52:01.020 and he

00:52:01.500 used a

00:52:01.820 chainsaw to

00:52:02.420 cut his 1.00

00:52:02.740 head off 1.00

00:52:03.160 and he

00:52:03.940 tried to

00:52:04.260 take it

00:52:04.540 home with

00:52:04.920 him because

00:52:05.320 he had

00:52:06.160 some interest

00:52:06.700 in large

00:52:07.980 marine skulls,

00:52:09.180 I don't

00:52:10.160 know what he

00:52:10.440 was going to

00:52:10.700 use it for,

00:52:11.260 but it's

00:52:12.380 none of

00:52:12.640 my business.

00:52:15.060 So you

00:52:15.760 know what

00:52:15.960 this story

00:52:16.360 didn't

00:52:16.680 include?

00:52:17.480 It didn't

00:52:17.980 tell us

00:52:18.500 what kind

00:52:19.160 of whale

00:52:19.500 it was.

00:52:20.840 Weren't

00:52:21.100 you curious?

00:52:22.680 The only

00:52:23.220 thing we

00:52:23.520 know for

00:52:23.840 sure is

00:52:24.200 that it

00:52:24.620 wasn't a

00:52:25.100 sperm

00:52:25.340 whale.

00:52:25.620 you know

00:52:28.260 why?

00:52:33.340 It didn't

00:52:33.960 try to

00:52:34.280 hump back.

00:52:35.460 Okay,

00:52:35.840 that's

00:52:36.100 sort of

00:52:36.540 a pun.

00:52:37.000 It

00:52:37.080 didn't

00:52:37.240 work.

00:52:40.080 The

00:52:40.560 Republican

00:52:40.980 National

00:52:41.380 Committee

00:52:41.720 is suing

00:52:43.160 the Detroit

00:52:44.580 Election

00:52:45.020 Commission

00:52:45.540 because

00:52:46.680 apparently

00:52:47.340 the law

00:52:47.980 says that

00:52:48.600 they should

00:52:48.940 try to

00:52:49.240 hire as

00:52:49.620 many

00:52:50.000 Democrat

00:52:51.260 poll workers

00:52:52.000 as Republican

00:52:52.820 poll workers.

00:52:53.600 How'd they

00:52:53.880 do?

00:52:54.560 Well,

00:52:54.840 they hired

00:52:55.220 seven times

00:52:56.000 more Democrats

00:52:56.920 than Republicans

00:52:58.020 which is

00:52:58.820 breaking the

00:53:00.460 law.

00:53:01.460 So they're

00:53:01.720 being sued

00:53:02.360 for that.

00:53:03.760 But here's

00:53:04.200 the amazing

00:53:04.620 part of the

00:53:05.080 story.

00:53:05.580 The amazing

00:53:06.300 part of the

00:53:06.780 story is

00:53:07.140 not that

00:53:07.820 the Detroit

00:53:08.520 election people

00:53:09.300 broke the

00:53:09.840 law and

00:53:11.040 stacked it

00:53:11.680 with Democrat

00:53:12.380 poll watchers

00:53:13.220 which is

00:53:13.620 every red

00:53:14.760 flag in the

00:53:15.280 world.

00:53:16.000 The surprising

00:53:16.840 thing to me

00:53:17.480 was there

00:53:19.440 are Republicans

00:53:20.100 in Detroit?

00:53:22.580 Wait a

00:53:23.280 minute.

00:53:23.880 There are

00:53:24.760 Republicans.

00:53:26.020 Republicans

00:53:26.640 in Detroit?

00:53:29.320 What are you

00:53:30.180 doing there?

00:53:31.660 Do you need

00:53:32.300 help getting

00:53:32.760 out?

00:53:34.960 Does somebody

00:53:35.820 need some

00:53:37.040 escape plan?

00:53:39.220 Why'd they

00:53:39.840 even get one

00:53:40.540 out of seven?

00:53:41.800 I don't

00:53:42.100 understand that

00:53:42.700 part.

00:53:45.060 Well,

00:53:45.340 Kamala Harris,

00:53:46.040 as you know,

00:53:46.460 has agreed to

00:53:46.940 do one

00:53:47.660 interview with

00:53:49.440 Dana Bash

00:53:50.320 of CNN.

00:53:51.280 Okay,

00:53:51.700 so she'll

00:53:52.100 do an

00:53:52.640 interview with

00:53:53.520 a friendly

00:53:54.660 interviewer,

00:53:55.620 but I do

00:53:56.300 trust that

00:53:56.840 Dana Bash

00:53:57.340 will ask

00:53:57.900 at least a

00:53:58.900 few hard

00:53:59.320 hitting

00:53:59.500 questions.

00:54:00.140 It would

00:54:00.640 be embarrassing

00:54:01.420 if she

00:54:01.800 didn't.

00:54:03.160 But the

00:54:03.820 best reframe

00:54:05.280 of the day

00:54:05.800 and funniest

00:54:06.500 comments comes

00:54:07.340 from CNN,

00:54:08.780 what would

00:54:10.660 you call

00:54:10.960 him,

00:54:11.460 a guest

00:54:13.500 analyst?

00:54:15.800 I guess

00:54:16.180 an analyst

00:54:16.580 maybe.

00:54:17.580 So CNN

00:54:18.100 analyst who

00:54:19.580 is a

00:54:20.560 Republican,

00:54:21.240 I believe,

00:54:21.900 Scott Jennings

00:54:22.720 refers to

00:54:25.480 Kamala Harris

00:54:27.660 bringing her

00:54:28.440 vice president

00:54:29.220 to the

00:54:30.580 first big

00:54:31.260 interview as

00:54:32.820 an emotional

00:54:34.720 support animal.

00:54:35.700 Scott Jennings

00:54:39.820 called VP

00:54:42.140 Walsh an

00:54:43.740 emotional

00:54:44.160 support

00:54:44.680 animal.

00:54:48.940 Is that

00:54:49.800 perfect?

00:54:52.800 I've been

00:54:53.560 watching Scott

00:54:54.240 Jennings a

00:54:54.780 lot lately

00:54:55.280 because he

00:54:56.200 makes a lot

00:54:56.620 of news

00:54:57.000 being the

00:54:57.540 contrarian

00:54:58.220 on the

00:54:58.600 CNN panels.

00:55:00.260 And I

00:55:01.020 feel like

00:55:01.560 he's doing

00:55:01.980 like a real

00:55:03.500 solid job

00:55:04.260 lately.

00:55:05.700 But this

00:55:06.940 is some

00:55:07.240 really good

00:55:07.680 work,

00:55:09.200 an emotional

00:55:10.000 support

00:55:10.560 animal.

00:55:11.180 You cannot

00:55:11.860 see him

00:55:12.440 the same

00:55:12.860 after that.

00:55:14.680 Right?

00:55:16.600 It sums

00:55:17.760 it up so

00:55:18.360 perfectly that

00:55:19.680 you'll always

00:55:20.320 think it every

00:55:21.020 time you see

00:55:21.560 him now.

00:55:22.600 And I feel

00:55:23.240 like I might

00:55:23.800 start referring

00:55:24.580 to him that

00:55:25.200 way, even

00:55:27.320 out of this

00:55:27.860 context, because

00:55:29.440 calling him an

00:55:30.140 emotional support

00:55:31.060 animal, you

00:55:32.260 know, when

00:55:32.480 the VP job

00:55:33.360 is not

00:55:34.240 terribly important

00:55:35.140 to begin

00:55:35.600 with, and

00:55:36.640 then she

00:55:36.900 brings him

00:55:37.360 along on

00:55:37.780 the interview.

00:55:38.940 That's kind

00:55:39.700 of perfect.

00:55:41.280 So Scott

00:55:41.780 Jennings, you

00:55:45.660 know, I like

00:55:46.940 it when people

00:55:47.520 bring the name

00:55:48.460 Scott into a

00:55:49.580 good place.

00:55:51.220 You know, you

00:55:51.460 do some good

00:55:52.040 work and then

00:55:52.660 the name Scott

00:55:53.320 gets elevated.

00:55:55.740 I'd like to

00:55:56.520 apologize to

00:55:57.300 Scott Jennings

00:55:58.340 for ruining

00:55:59.140 the name Scott

00:56:00.040 personally, but

00:56:03.880 maybe he can

00:56:04.380 bring it

00:56:04.720 back.

00:56:07.960 Anyway, you

00:56:10.660 know how the

00:56:12.760 press and now

00:56:13.820 a lot of

00:56:14.140 Republicans are

00:56:14.880 saying that

00:56:15.260 Kamala Harris

00:56:15.800 was or is

00:56:17.220 the border

00:56:18.120 czar, but as

00:56:20.120 soon as it

00:56:20.620 looked like the

00:56:21.100 border wasn't

00:56:21.640 working out,

00:56:22.740 she was no 0.95

00:56:23.240 longer the

00:56:23.720 border czar,

00:56:24.520 according to

00:56:25.060 her friendly

00:56:25.640 press.

00:56:26.560 She was, are

00:56:27.260 you kidding?

00:56:27.860 She was never

00:56:28.360 the border

00:56:29.080 czar.

00:56:30.580 She was only

00:56:31.300 in charge of

00:56:32.120 the root cause

00:56:32.980 stuff.

00:56:33.280 You know, the

00:56:34.840 important part.

00:56:38.700 So here's the

00:56:39.700 defense to that.

00:56:41.100 If you would

00:56:41.520 like to push

00:56:42.200 back on the

00:56:42.920 accusation that

00:56:43.820 she was not

00:56:44.320 really the

00:56:45.160 border czar,

00:56:46.580 here would be

00:56:47.100 the correct

00:56:47.620 frame.

00:56:49.740 Being a

00:56:50.380 half czar is

00:56:51.160 more of a

00:56:51.620 failure than

00:56:52.200 being a full

00:56:52.840 czar if it's

00:56:54.480 your team that's

00:56:55.200 in power.

00:56:57.040 Now, if she

00:56:57.900 was not on the

00:56:58.620 team that was

00:56:59.100 in power, as

00:57:00.020 in the Biden

00:57:00.520 administration,

00:57:01.180 and somebody

00:57:02.540 said, we're

00:57:02.980 going to make

00:57:03.280 you half

00:57:03.720 czar, what

00:57:04.960 do you mean

00:57:05.160 half czar?

00:57:06.400 Well, you'll

00:57:06.760 be in charge

00:57:07.580 of the root

00:57:08.040 causes, but

00:57:09.720 nothing about

00:57:10.480 the actual

00:57:11.080 border crossings.

00:57:13.800 And then she

00:57:14.540 would say,

00:57:15.160 well, it would

00:57:15.920 be a lot

00:57:16.400 better if I

00:57:17.720 were in charge

00:57:18.140 of the whole

00:57:18.520 thing.

00:57:19.520 No, you're

00:57:20.140 just, you're

00:57:20.740 going to be

00:57:20.960 a half czar.

00:57:22.380 Well, it would

00:57:23.060 make sense if

00:57:24.020 you're, if you

00:57:24.700 were not on the

00:57:25.440 team that was

00:57:25.960 in charge.

00:57:26.580 But if the

00:57:27.860 team that's

00:57:28.400 in charge decides

00:57:30.500 that the good

00:57:31.180 way to approach

00:57:31.960 it is with

00:57:32.660 half a czar,

00:57:33.820 that's worse

00:57:35.080 than not being 1.00

00:57:36.060 a fucking czar 0.99

00:57:36.900 at all. 1.00

00:57:38.200 That's worse.

00:57:39.760 In every way,

00:57:40.940 it's worse that

00:57:42.300 she was on the

00:57:42.940 team that decided

00:57:43.840 a half czar

00:57:44.620 was a good

00:57:45.140 idea.

00:57:46.540 Now, you

00:57:46.940 could say,

00:57:47.440 okay, you

00:57:48.620 know, don't

00:57:49.400 call me a

00:57:49.940 czar because

00:57:51.240 it's only half

00:57:52.060 the job, but

00:57:53.140 half czar is 1.00

00:57:54.040 the dumbest 1.00

00:57:54.660 fucking thing 1.00

00:57:55.320 you could ever 1.00

00:57:55.860 do.

00:57:57.580 Nobody, nobody

00:57:58.620 in corporate

00:57:59.100 America would 0.93

00:58:00.660 ever agree to

00:58:01.520 a half czar

00:58:02.320 when the topic

00:58:04.200 obviously is,

00:58:05.080 you know, related

00:58:05.780 in so many

00:58:06.420 ways.

00:58:06.980 The moving

00:58:07.360 parts are all

00:58:08.100 related.

00:58:09.220 Of course, you

00:58:10.060 would have a

00:58:10.560 half, you

00:58:11.260 would have a

00:58:11.680 full czar.

00:58:13.680 That, that

00:58:14.360 would be like

00:58:14.780 having a

00:58:16.000 drug czar

00:58:16.880 for just

00:58:19.520 marijuana.

00:58:21.660 Like, everybody

00:58:22.440 would just say,

00:58:23.000 well, that's 1.00

00:58:23.380 stupid. 1.00

00:58:24.300 I mean, obviously 1.00

00:58:25.060 you need to do

00:58:25.840 everything.

00:58:27.580 A half

00:58:28.340 a czar?

00:58:29.820 Come on.

00:58:31.420 All right.

00:58:32.440 Rasmussen did

00:58:33.200 a poll on

00:58:33.920 how many

00:58:35.780 people think

00:58:36.420 their state

00:58:38.620 has done

00:58:38.960 enough to

00:58:39.580 prevent voting

00:58:40.700 by illegal

00:58:41.540 immigrants.

00:58:42.040 immigrants.

00:58:43.160 So 32% said

00:58:45.340 they don't

00:58:45.660 think their

00:58:46.080 state has

00:58:46.620 done enough

00:58:47.160 to prevent

00:58:47.880 illegal immigrants

00:58:48.920 from voting.

00:58:50.600 Well, 20%

00:58:51.660 say they've

00:58:52.380 announced some

00:58:52.900 steps, but

00:58:53.480 not enough.

00:58:54.060 So that's a

00:58:54.680 whole bunch

00:58:55.120 of people

00:58:55.540 who worry

00:58:56.740 that there'll

00:58:57.520 be illegal

00:58:58.280 people voting.

00:58:59.960 now, I

00:59:02.300 just saw

00:59:02.700 there's

00:59:03.000 some guy,

00:59:04.040 I think he

00:59:04.340 works at

00:59:04.780 Meta and

00:59:05.580 AI, whose

00:59:07.740 full-time job

00:59:08.940 is to do 1.00

00:59:09.620 asshole posts 1.00

00:59:11.160 about Elon 0.96

00:59:12.000 Musk.

00:59:12.840 So whatever

00:59:13.460 Elon Musk

00:59:14.140 says, this

00:59:15.540 guy will come

00:59:16.140 in and act

00:59:16.740 like he's 1.00

00:59:17.220 dumb. 1.00

00:59:18.200 It's the 1.00

00:59:18.540 weirdest thing

00:59:19.120 because he's

00:59:19.560 obvious, you 0.95

00:59:20.080 know, if we

00:59:20.820 did an IQ

00:59:21.360 test, I think

00:59:22.800 he'd beat

00:59:23.180 me.

00:59:23.420 I mean, if

00:59:25.560 you're the

00:59:25.800 guy who's

00:59:26.180 in charge

00:59:26.560 of AI at

00:59:27.340 Meta, you're

00:59:29.080 going to be

00:59:29.580 really smart.

00:59:31.060 But he plays

00:59:31.800 a guy who

00:59:32.280 doesn't know

00:59:32.680 anything about

00:59:33.180 anything on

00:59:34.220 X, and it's

00:59:35.200 weird.

00:59:35.640 I don't know

00:59:36.220 exactly how

00:59:36.880 to process

00:59:38.940 the fact that

00:59:39.680 he acts so 1.00

00:59:40.220 stupid in 1.00

00:59:40.760 public, but 1.00

00:59:42.060 he can't

00:59:42.420 be.

00:59:43.940 There's just

00:59:44.620 no way he's

00:59:45.480 not super

00:59:46.460 smart in

00:59:46.960 real life.

00:59:49.780 But one

00:59:52.340 of the

00:59:52.520 things he

00:59:53.000 said is

00:59:53.740 that there's

00:59:54.120 no such

00:59:54.560 thing as

00:59:55.200 non-citizens

00:59:56.260 voting.

00:59:57.900 And I

00:59:58.480 said to

00:59:58.760 myself,

00:59:59.980 what?

01:00:02.580 Does he

01:00:03.180 not know

01:00:03.580 that the

01:00:03.960 news is

01:00:04.480 currently

01:00:04.920 reporting a

01:00:05.780 whole bunch

01:00:06.200 of people

01:00:06.660 who are

01:00:07.120 non-citizens

01:00:07.840 did in

01:00:09.000 fact vote

01:00:09.560 and got

01:00:09.920 caught?

01:00:11.380 Now, if

01:00:12.140 he had

01:00:12.880 said it's

01:00:14.560 a very

01:00:14.840 small number,

01:00:16.180 then I

01:00:17.100 would say,

01:00:17.660 well, now

01:00:17.980 you're in

01:00:18.260 the ballpark

01:00:18.900 of a real

01:00:19.780 argument.

01:00:20.560 I don't

01:00:20.920 know if it's

01:00:21.380 a big

01:00:21.640 number.

01:00:21.940 I don't

01:00:23.020 know that

01:00:23.400 it's a

01:00:23.680 small number.

01:00:24.680 But if

01:00:25.240 that's his

01:00:25.680 claim, that

01:00:26.760 there's no

01:00:27.160 evidence it's

01:00:27.840 anything but

01:00:28.320 a small

01:00:28.700 number, I

01:00:29.240 would say,

01:00:29.580 well, okay,

01:00:32.040 that's not

01:00:32.460 too far from

01:00:33.060 the truth.

01:00:34.740 We don't

01:00:35.380 know if it's

01:00:36.280 a big

01:00:36.560 number.

01:00:37.780 That is

01:00:38.360 true.

01:00:39.400 But we

01:00:39.980 know for

01:00:40.480 sure it's

01:00:40.880 happening in

01:00:41.680 a large

01:00:42.580 enough number

01:00:43.280 that being

01:00:45.060 concerned about

01:00:45.760 it is not

01:00:46.260 crazy.

01:00:46.640 But on

01:00:47.660 top of

01:00:48.040 that, we

01:00:49.780 have learned

01:00:50.560 or we

01:00:50.980 think we've

01:00:51.500 learned that

01:00:51.960 the real

01:00:52.340 play might

01:00:53.780 be that the

01:00:54.660 states that

01:00:55.560 are up to

01:00:56.580 some

01:00:57.040 shenanigans

01:00:57.920 allegedly

01:00:58.840 could use

01:01:00.820 multiple

01:01:01.520 databases to

01:01:03.240 make sure

01:01:03.700 that the

01:01:04.340 voter rolls

01:01:05.260 are rigged,

01:01:06.640 meaning that

01:01:07.380 make sure the

01:01:08.100 non-citizens are 1.00

01:01:09.140 put on the

01:01:09.620 voting rolls in

01:01:10.580 an automated

01:01:11.300 way.

01:01:12.100 This is a

01:01:12.780 specific claim

01:01:13.580 by some

01:01:14.060 people who

01:01:14.940 seem to have

01:01:15.460 investigated it.

01:01:16.640 I can't

01:01:17.700 confirm it's

01:01:18.480 true.

01:01:19.640 But the

01:01:20.040 claim is that

01:01:20.980 it would be

01:01:21.380 more about

01:01:21.860 using their

01:01:22.460 names and

01:01:23.080 having somebody

01:01:23.700 illegally vote

01:01:24.580 for them.

01:01:25.400 It's not so

01:01:26.180 much that they

01:01:27.100 would consider

01:01:27.740 themselves voters

01:01:28.720 and go in

01:01:29.240 and vote. 0.61

01:01:30.440 My guess is

01:01:31.480 that that

01:01:31.980 number of

01:01:32.440 people won't

01:01:32.920 be big.

01:01:34.080 The number

01:01:34.540 who just,

01:01:36.040 hey, they

01:01:36.780 told me I

01:01:37.220 could vote,

01:01:37.760 I'll give it

01:01:38.120 a shot.

01:01:39.140 And then they 0.85

01:01:39.580 go in with

01:01:40.060 their Central

01:01:40.660 America ID

01:01:41.500 and they

01:01:42.300 vote.

01:01:43.340 I don't

01:01:43.700 think there

01:01:44.300 would be a

01:01:44.560 ton of

01:01:44.860 them.

01:01:45.460 But there

01:01:47.120 could be a

01:01:47.620 ton of

01:01:48.020 fake names

01:01:48.900 used as

01:01:50.000 fake votes

01:01:50.560 and they

01:01:51.400 could be

01:01:51.700 part of

01:01:52.000 that.

01:01:54.160 I don't

01:01:54.740 know how

01:01:55.040 you would

01:01:55.360 rule out

01:01:55.780 that possibility

01:01:56.580 in a way

01:01:57.820 that I'd

01:01:58.200 believe it.

01:02:11.740 Scotiabank,

01:02:12.380 you're richer

01:02:12.840 than you think.

01:02:13.440 Anyway,

01:02:15.140 Robert F.

01:02:18.640 Kennedy is

01:02:19.300 saying that

01:02:21.420 there's a

01:02:21.800 mental health

01:02:22.280 crisis in

01:02:22.920 America and

01:02:24.180 he wants to

01:02:24.920 work with

01:02:25.620 Cali Means.

01:02:27.500 It's a name

01:02:28.040 you may have

01:02:28.460 heard recently.

01:02:30.260 So Cali Means 0.85

01:02:31.160 is sort of big

01:02:32.180 in this space

01:02:33.020 about mental

01:02:34.760 health crisis

01:02:35.420 in America.

01:02:36.160 And as you

01:02:37.740 know, the

01:02:38.800 young people

01:02:39.340 went from

01:02:40.020 some kind

01:02:40.920 of baseline

01:02:41.480 historically

01:02:42.100 to wow,

01:02:43.940 tons and

01:02:45.220 tons of

01:02:45.620 mental health

01:02:46.120 problems in

01:02:46.800 more recent

01:02:47.420 years.

01:02:48.380 And he's

01:02:50.140 going to

01:02:50.400 work on

01:02:50.760 it with

01:02:51.080 the help

01:02:51.460 of Trump

01:02:52.540 and Cali

01:02:53.960 Means.

01:02:54.240 Now, I

01:02:56.620 don't know

01:02:56.920 about Cali

01:02:57.660 Means, but

01:02:59.140 if Cali

01:03:00.360 was ever

01:03:01.780 a Democrat

01:03:02.560 or was

01:03:03.440 ever anything

01:03:04.620 on the

01:03:05.440 right, I

01:03:06.000 don't know.

01:03:07.000 But I'm

01:03:08.400 loving my

01:03:08.940 pirate ship.

01:03:10.720 So you

01:03:11.340 tell me that

01:03:12.120 RFK Jr.,

01:03:13.520 Trump, and

01:03:14.240 Cali Means 0.56

01:03:14.920 are all going

01:03:15.400 to be on

01:03:15.660 the same

01:03:16.080 project, or

01:03:17.860 at least

01:03:18.080 they have

01:03:18.960 that one

01:03:19.300 thing in

01:03:19.680 common.

01:03:20.140 I say,

01:03:20.940 yes.

01:03:22.020 Okay.

01:03:22.380 That gives

01:03:23.080 me some

01:03:23.460 optimism that

01:03:24.760 really serious

01:03:25.640 people who

01:03:26.340 are willing

01:03:26.760 to do

01:03:27.120 really often

01:03:28.500 dangerous

01:03:29.020 things to

01:03:30.040 get something

01:03:30.520 good are

01:03:31.980 on the

01:03:32.380 job.

01:03:33.340 Good for

01:03:33.980 them.

01:03:35.920 Well, you

01:03:36.600 probably saw

01:03:37.000 the undercover

01:03:37.620 video.

01:03:39.720 Was it

01:03:40.220 what was

01:03:45.820 what's the

01:03:47.360 organization

01:03:47.860 that does

01:03:49.220 the undercover

01:03:49.740 videos?

01:03:50.400 I'm blanking

01:03:50.840 on that.

01:03:52.380 well, you'll

01:03:54.420 tell me.

01:03:55.740 You know, the

01:03:56.580 famous undercover

01:03:57.980 video that

01:03:59.100 they're, why

01:04:01.120 am I blanking

01:04:01.700 on that?

01:04:02.180 You know what

01:04:02.540 I mean.

01:04:02.860 Project

01:04:03.240 Veritas.

01:04:04.280 So Project

01:04:05.140 Veritas is

01:04:07.380 still ongoing,

01:04:08.460 although their

01:04:08.980 leader left to

01:04:10.880 the OMG

01:04:11.620 platform that

01:04:13.140 he created.

01:04:14.320 All right.

01:04:14.760 But Project

01:04:15.740 Veritas is still

01:04:16.640 in business.

01:04:17.740 And I think

01:04:18.300 it was them,

01:04:19.060 pretty sure.

01:04:19.820 Give me a

01:04:20.200 fact check if

01:04:20.780 I have that

01:04:21.120 wrong.

01:04:23.360 But it was

01:04:23.940 Project

01:04:24.320 Veritas,

01:04:24.900 not OMG

01:04:25.500 on this

01:04:26.280 one.

01:04:27.340 I don't

01:04:27.920 want to mix

01:04:28.360 those up

01:04:28.840 because that

01:04:29.260 would be

01:04:29.620 no fair to

01:04:31.920 O'Keefe if

01:04:33.060 I did.

01:04:34.740 But anyway,

01:04:35.140 there's an

01:04:35.420 undercover video

01:04:36.180 showing that

01:04:37.180 the FDA,

01:04:39.320 an FDA

01:04:39.940 attorney knows

01:04:41.060 that they

01:04:41.400 never should

01:04:41.900 have told the

01:04:42.320 American public

01:04:43.000 not to take

01:04:44.060 ivermectin.

01:04:45.000 and that

01:04:46.160 the reason

01:04:46.680 presumably was

01:04:47.980 so that

01:04:48.720 people would

01:04:49.160 be taking

01:04:50.520 their vaccinations

01:04:51.420 and not

01:04:52.340 knowing that

01:04:52.840 there might

01:04:53.360 be some

01:04:53.840 alternate.

01:04:55.220 Now,

01:04:55.680 how many of

01:04:56.680 you are

01:04:56.940 convinced that

01:04:57.680 ivermectin is

01:04:58.700 proven to have

01:04:59.900 been a real

01:05:01.240 effective treatment

01:05:02.600 against COVID?

01:05:03.600 How many of

01:05:05.820 you think that

01:05:06.400 that's a proven

01:05:07.700 thing, that it

01:05:09.620 worked against

01:05:10.200 COVID?

01:05:10.520 I know

01:05:11.700 there have

01:05:11.920 been some

01:05:12.280 studies, but

01:05:14.360 I'm still on

01:05:15.200 the page of

01:05:16.500 no data about

01:05:17.460 the pandemic

01:05:18.100 can be

01:05:19.140 trusted.

01:05:20.240 So I'm not

01:05:21.020 going to make

01:05:21.280 an exception

01:05:21.760 because it

01:05:22.320 agrees with

01:05:22.980 something I

01:05:23.700 would love to

01:05:24.180 be true.

01:05:25.560 Part of me

01:05:26.300 wants it to

01:05:26.880 be true that

01:05:27.600 the ivermectin

01:05:28.360 is real

01:05:28.740 effective and

01:05:30.380 would have

01:05:30.940 saved a lot

01:05:31.420 of lives,

01:05:32.660 but it's

01:05:34.660 based on

01:05:35.080 data.

01:05:36.420 So I'm

01:05:37.280 not willing to

01:05:38.060 accept a

01:05:38.600 data argument

01:05:39.200 about it.

01:05:40.520 anything in

01:05:41.100 the pandemic.

01:05:42.080 I feel like I

01:05:43.100 need to be

01:05:43.500 consistent about

01:05:44.320 that because

01:05:45.400 the problem is

01:05:45.980 data.

01:05:46.980 The problem is

01:05:47.740 not necessarily

01:05:48.800 even the people

01:05:49.400 having bad

01:05:49.940 intentions.

01:05:51.040 I just, I

01:05:51.700 don't think we

01:05:52.100 know anything.

01:05:53.340 That's what it

01:05:54.000 feels like.

01:05:56.300 But I don't, I

01:05:57.440 don't rule

01:05:57.800 anything out and

01:05:58.420 I just don't

01:05:59.360 trust data.

01:06:02.460 An account

01:06:03.180 called Carnivore

01:06:04.180 Aurelius notes

01:06:06.080 eight ingredients

01:06:07.140 that are

01:06:08.440 banned in

01:06:09.000 almost every

01:06:09.440 country except

01:06:09.960 the USA.

01:06:10.520 So here's

01:06:11.160 the claim.

01:06:12.300 Now see if

01:06:12.800 you've heard

01:06:13.140 any of these

01:06:13.680 coloring agents

01:06:14.780 like blue

01:06:15.780 one, two,

01:06:16.780 yellow, five

01:06:17.360 and yellow,

01:06:17.820 six.

01:06:18.160 Those are

01:06:18.460 banned.

01:06:19.360 Something called

01:06:20.000 Olestra.

01:06:21.920 I think that's

01:06:23.000 the stuff in

01:06:23.500 potato chips.

01:06:25.340 Brominated

01:06:25.860 vegetable oil.

01:06:27.300 That doesn't

01:06:27.800 sound good.

01:06:28.740 Potassium

01:06:29.260 bromate.

01:06:30.980 Well, the

01:06:33.000 potassium part

01:06:33.920 sounds cool and

01:06:35.500 I like having a

01:06:36.260 bromate.

01:06:37.580 Hey, bro.

01:06:39.240 Hello, mate.

01:06:41.580 So bromate

01:06:42.520 sounds like it'd

01:06:43.100 be a good

01:06:43.460 thing, but

01:06:43.880 apparently not.

01:06:45.080 And then, of

01:06:45.460 course, you have

01:06:45.860 to watch out for

01:06:46.440 the azodicarbonamide.

01:06:51.080 Azacobardamide.

01:06:51.940 Let me say that

01:06:52.580 again perfectly.

01:06:57.760 Azodicarbonamide.

01:06:58.540 Yeah, you don't

01:06:58.960 want to eat that.

01:07:00.220 And then the

01:07:00.820 BHA and the

01:07:01.580 BHD.

01:07:02.220 No idea.

01:07:03.240 Synthetic hormones.

01:07:04.560 What?

01:07:05.000 And arsenic.

01:07:07.140 What?

01:07:08.900 I'm starting to

01:07:10.000 think they're

01:07:10.420 trying to poison

01:07:11.160 us.

01:07:12.360 So presumably

01:07:13.400 there isn't that

01:07:14.320 much arsenic.

01:07:15.480 I don't know.

01:07:16.000 How much is the

01:07:16.620 right amount of

01:07:17.160 arsenic?

01:07:19.620 Well, I don't

01:07:20.420 know anything about

01:07:21.120 the science of

01:07:21.960 these various

01:07:22.560 things, but I'm

01:07:23.680 certainly concerned

01:07:24.540 that they're banned

01:07:25.180 in every other

01:07:25.740 country.

01:07:26.640 But you know

01:07:28.440 how we always

01:07:29.080 say, hey,

01:07:30.900 Europe has all

01:07:31.680 this healthy

01:07:32.140 food and we

01:07:32.880 have unhealthy

01:07:33.440 food.

01:07:33.840 here is what

01:07:35.780 I haven't

01:07:36.520 seen, that

01:07:38.200 the life

01:07:38.760 expectancy in

01:07:39.700 Europe is way

01:07:40.400 better than

01:07:40.840 America.

01:07:42.200 If you make

01:07:45.260 sure you're

01:07:45.620 looking at

01:07:45.980 similar groups

01:07:46.780 of people,

01:07:47.520 similar socioeconomic

01:07:49.440 groups, for

01:07:50.100 example.

01:07:51.300 Is that true?

01:07:53.240 Are people in

01:07:54.280 Europe experiencing

01:07:55.920 longer lifespans

01:07:57.560 because their

01:07:58.040 food is better

01:07:58.680 and less

01:08:00.580 mental health

01:08:01.220 problems?

01:08:01.740 I don't

01:08:03.600 know what

01:08:03.840 to believe.

01:08:04.460 Again, there's

01:08:05.400 a gigantic

01:08:06.600 data integrity

01:08:08.380 problem.

01:08:09.060 I just don't

01:08:09.520 know what

01:08:09.760 to believe.

01:08:11.520 But it

01:08:14.020 does make

01:08:14.400 sense to me

01:08:14.960 that the

01:08:15.360 more of

01:08:15.720 these weird

01:08:16.480 chemicals you

01:08:17.120 put in your

01:08:17.480 body, the

01:08:18.000 harder your

01:08:18.400 body is going

01:08:18.880 to have to

01:08:19.300 work to

01:08:20.580 figure it

01:08:21.020 all out.

01:08:22.100 So it does

01:08:22.820 make sense

01:08:23.280 that the

01:08:23.660 fewer strange

01:08:24.460 things you put

01:08:25.000 in your body,

01:08:25.520 the better.

01:08:25.740 Reuters is

01:08:28.340 reporting that

01:08:29.280 there was

01:08:29.640 some kind

01:08:31.480 of a

01:08:31.900 class action

01:08:33.580 suit against

01:08:34.280 X and

01:08:35.120 Elon Musk

01:08:35.840 for allegedly

01:08:37.640 firing more

01:08:38.900 female engineers 1.00

01:08:40.040 than male

01:08:41.040 when he did

01:08:41.960 his massive

01:08:42.540 layoffs,

01:08:43.920 and in

01:08:46.340 the context

01:08:46.940 of having

01:08:47.480 made alleged

01:08:48.760 sexist

01:08:49.460 comments in

01:08:50.500 the past.

01:08:51.660 Now, the

01:08:52.280 alleged sexist

01:08:53.220 comments were

01:08:54.560 not related

01:08:55.240 to any of

01:08:55.740 these firings

01:08:56.440 of engineers.

01:08:57.440 They were

01:08:57.660 separate.

01:08:58.700 But the

01:08:59.260 engineers, the

01:09:00.500 ladies, said, 0.99

01:09:02.160 well, if he

01:09:02.760 said sexist

01:09:03.560 things in a

01:09:04.120 different context

01:09:04.960 and then more

01:09:06.220 as a percentage,

01:09:07.680 more of the

01:09:08.060 female engineers 1.00

01:09:09.280 got fired than

01:09:09.920 the men, well,

01:09:11.920 we got ourselves

01:09:12.740 a class action

01:09:13.680 suit.

01:09:14.560 Well, the

01:09:14.920 court dismissed

01:09:15.580 it because it

01:09:16.900 turns out that

01:09:17.620 there was no

01:09:18.020 evidence that

01:09:18.620 Elon Musk had

01:09:19.860 anything to do

01:09:20.740 with selecting

01:09:21.400 who got fired.

01:09:22.300 at least at

01:09:25.040 that detail.

01:09:26.180 The individual

01:09:27.040 managers of the

01:09:28.140 departments were

01:09:28.900 deciding who

01:09:29.740 got fired.

01:09:31.360 So Musk was

01:09:32.060 not involved

01:09:32.860 at a detailed

01:09:34.220 level where

01:09:35.800 he would have

01:09:36.280 even been able

01:09:36.960 to, you

01:09:38.260 know, doing

01:09:38.740 any biased

01:09:39.500 stuff.

01:09:42.360 Anyway,

01:09:43.660 so what do

01:09:48.200 you make of

01:09:48.600 the fact that

01:09:49.360 the individual

01:09:50.340 managers,

01:09:50.980 got rid of

01:09:54.620 58% of

01:09:55.580 female engineers 1.00

01:09:56.500 compared to

01:09:57.660 40%, 45% 0.58

01:09:59.440 of male

01:09:59.820 engineers?

01:10:01.360 Do you think

01:10:02.240 they were all

01:10:02.760 exactly the

01:10:03.720 same

01:10:04.180 qualifications?

01:10:07.120 It feels

01:10:08.060 unlikely.

01:10:09.580 Do you think

01:10:10.380 that the

01:10:11.140 talent stacks

01:10:12.520 of the men

01:10:13.440 and the women 1.00

01:10:14.000 were similar?

01:10:14.780 I don't know,

01:10:17.580 but I can't

01:10:18.520 see any

01:10:18.980 manager firing

01:10:19.780 firing his

01:10:21.740 best engineers

01:10:22.780 or her

01:10:24.340 best engineers.

01:10:25.880 Why would

01:10:26.740 they do

01:10:27.040 that?

01:10:28.440 Have you

01:10:28.920 ever met

01:10:29.360 a manager

01:10:29.980 who would

01:10:32.380 fire the

01:10:33.400 good people 0.94

01:10:34.680 who are

01:10:35.040 female and

01:10:36.620 keep the 0.98

01:10:37.300 less good

01:10:38.500 people who are 0.67

01:10:39.000 male because 0.78

01:10:39.640 just wanted

01:10:40.260 more men

01:10:40.800 in America?

01:10:42.900 let me tell

01:10:45.260 you what an

01:10:45.760 American

01:10:46.160 manager says.

01:10:47.600 An American

01:10:48.480 manager says,

01:10:49.660 I definitely

01:10:50.500 want women 0.97

01:10:51.620 in the

01:10:51.980 group because

01:10:54.580 it just makes

01:10:56.020 everything work

01:10:56.600 better basically.

01:10:57.680 If you have men

01:10:58.460 and women, 1.00

01:10:59.000 it's just more

01:10:59.480 fun work

01:11:00.040 environment

01:11:00.500 generally.

01:11:01.360 It has its

01:11:01.960 cost, but

01:11:02.540 it's more

01:11:02.820 fun.

01:11:05.860 Anyway,

01:11:07.000 that was 0.99

01:11:07.620 dumb. 0.99

01:11:07.920 Axios is 1.00

01:11:10.840 reporting that

01:11:11.440 Trump's

01:11:11.960 economic plan

01:11:12.960 would add

01:11:13.380 $5.8

01:11:14.240 trillion to

01:11:14.820 national debt,

01:11:15.700 which is

01:11:16.020 already $36

01:11:17.580 trillion.

01:11:18.440 Is Trump

01:11:19.300 good for

01:11:19.820 debt?

01:11:20.720 Nope.

01:11:22.060 Is debt

01:11:22.900 the biggest

01:11:23.400 problem in

01:11:23.960 the world?

01:11:25.320 Probably.

01:11:27.120 It's the

01:11:27.880 most existentially

01:11:29.020 dangerous thing

01:11:30.600 we're doing.

01:11:31.540 Does Harris

01:11:32.520 have a plan

01:11:33.160 for the

01:11:33.540 debt?

01:11:34.800 Nope.

01:11:35.180 So neither

01:11:36.980 candidate has

01:11:37.720 a plan for

01:11:38.280 the most

01:11:38.680 important

01:11:39.120 thing.

01:11:40.600 However,

01:11:42.440 Trump does

01:11:43.180 have something

01:11:43.820 that Harris

01:11:44.360 doesn't have.

01:11:46.060 His name

01:11:46.580 is Elon

01:11:47.200 Musk, who

01:11:48.000 has already

01:11:48.620 volunteered to

01:11:49.860 see what we

01:11:51.260 can do about

01:11:51.800 cutting the

01:11:52.300 cost of

01:11:52.680 government,

01:11:53.480 which, by

01:11:55.100 the way,

01:11:55.420 would be

01:11:55.800 massively

01:11:56.300 expensive in

01:11:57.120 the short

01:11:57.500 run because

01:11:59.020 you'd be

01:12:00.240 paying all

01:12:00.700 the severances

01:12:01.360 and the

01:12:01.980 retirements

01:12:02.680 and everything,

01:12:04.260 and there'd

01:12:04.500 be a lot

01:12:04.880 of people

01:12:05.240 involved who

01:12:06.720 would lose

01:12:07.060 their jobs

01:12:07.620 and then

01:12:07.940 the unemployment

01:12:08.580 would spike.

01:12:10.060 So if

01:12:10.580 Trump did

01:12:12.060 a good job

01:12:12.940 in reducing

01:12:13.640 the size

01:12:14.160 of government,

01:12:15.380 there are

01:12:15.660 just so many

01:12:16.240 government

01:12:16.600 employees that

01:12:17.760 you wonder

01:12:18.160 if his

01:12:18.800 unemployment

01:12:19.260 numbers would

01:12:19.960 suffer.

01:12:21.880 But that's

01:12:22.780 the sort of

01:12:23.160 thing you

01:12:23.440 could do if

01:12:24.120 you're a

01:12:24.420 one-term

01:12:24.840 president like

01:12:25.760 Trump would

01:12:26.240 be,

01:12:26.860 the second

01:12:27.280 term.

01:12:28.940 Maybe you

01:12:29.540 can just

01:12:29.860 take that

01:12:30.240 hit.

01:12:30.840 In the

01:12:31.260 long run,

01:12:31.740 history would

01:12:32.300 love you.

01:12:33.120 In the

01:12:33.420 short run,

01:12:33.820 it looks bad

01:12:34.280 if you're

01:12:34.540 running for

01:12:34.940 re-election,

01:12:35.680 but he

01:12:35.880 wouldn't

01:12:36.080 be.

01:12:37.100 So if

01:12:37.460 you had

01:12:37.780 an Elon

01:12:38.220 Musk who 0.85

01:12:39.080 could just

01:12:39.520 take 80%

01:12:40.380 of the cost

01:12:40.960 out of the

01:12:41.320 government,

01:12:42.400 if you had

01:12:42.980 a President

01:12:43.480 Trump who

01:12:44.120 didn't want

01:12:44.540 to start

01:12:44.980 and finish

01:12:45.980 foreign wars,

01:12:48.320 could you

01:12:49.260 take enough

01:12:49.960 out of the

01:12:50.340 budget by

01:12:51.420 the fourth

01:12:51.900 year that

01:12:53.140 we would

01:12:53.440 have some

01:12:53.820 breathing room

01:12:54.560 and a

01:12:55.260 chance of

01:12:55.800 success?

01:12:57.080 And the

01:12:57.560 answer is

01:12:58.220 maybe.

01:12:59.700 If you're

01:13:00.320 Trump and

01:13:01.120 you do things

01:13:01.800 that could 0.68

01:13:02.160 lower the

01:13:02.720 interest

01:13:03.040 rates,

01:13:04.660 is that

01:13:05.060 going to

01:13:05.240 help your

01:13:05.820 national debt?

01:13:06.860 Yeah,

01:13:07.340 like a lot.

01:13:08.780 A lot.

01:13:09.600 If you

01:13:10.120 could renegotiate

01:13:11.060 some of it

01:13:11.680 or do

01:13:12.640 something clever

01:13:13.300 with crypto

01:13:14.220 that gives

01:13:14.720 people some

01:13:15.260 breathing room

01:13:15.840 somehow,

01:13:16.400 I don't know

01:13:16.820 exactly how,

01:13:18.220 could you do

01:13:18.700 it?

01:13:18.960 Well,

01:13:19.260 I think

01:13:19.600 Trump is

01:13:20.120 going to

01:13:20.300 be more

01:13:20.740 pro-crypto,

01:13:22.340 more pro-

01:13:23.280 experimenting,

01:13:25.200 more pro-

01:13:26.280 everything,

01:13:27.200 as long as

01:13:27.860 you can make

01:13:28.280 an argument

01:13:28.680 for it,

01:13:29.480 because he's

01:13:29.980 pretty flexible

01:13:30.980 mentally.

01:13:32.080 I like that

01:13:32.580 about him,

01:13:33.020 especially.

01:13:35.240 And maybe,

01:13:37.320 so, you

01:13:38.140 know, I can

01:13:38.580 make an

01:13:38.960 argument why

01:13:39.640 Trump might

01:13:40.140 be better

01:13:40.540 on the

01:13:40.860 national debt,

01:13:41.860 but he

01:13:42.580 hasn't.

01:13:43.760 Has he?

01:13:45.060 Has Trump

01:13:45.800 ever said,

01:13:47.120 I will be

01:13:47.940 better on the

01:13:48.500 national debt,

01:13:49.240 and here's

01:13:49.580 why?

01:13:50.560 Now, you

01:13:50.940 can make

01:13:51.240 the argument

01:13:51.740 that the

01:13:52.220 Democrats

01:13:52.620 always want

01:13:53.340 to spend

01:13:53.700 more,

01:13:54.600 but Trump

01:13:55.360 wants to

01:13:55.800 cut taxes.

01:13:57.480 I don't

01:13:57.980 know which

01:13:58.300 one would

01:13:58.620 be better

01:13:59.020 in terms

01:14:00.380 of just

01:14:00.680 the debt.

01:14:01.460 I prefer

01:14:01.920 the lower

01:14:02.340 taxes.

01:14:03.560 But it's

01:14:05.520 the number

01:14:05.860 one question,

01:14:07.040 but because

01:14:07.460 our media

01:14:09.240 doesn't

01:14:09.700 understand

01:14:10.360 the national

01:14:11.220 debt,

01:14:12.060 except it's

01:14:12.740 a big

01:14:12.960 number,

01:14:13.800 and it's

01:14:14.160 a debt,

01:14:15.260 I don't

01:14:16.280 think they're

01:14:16.620 comfortable

01:14:16.940 talking about

01:14:17.600 it.

01:14:18.540 And if

01:14:18.900 they did

01:14:19.180 talk about

01:14:19.720 it,

01:14:20.140 everything

01:14:20.500 would be

01:14:20.920 time-limited.

01:14:23.520 So if

01:14:24.120 you talk

01:14:24.420 to any

01:14:24.760 politician

01:14:25.240 about what

01:14:25.800 they would

01:14:26.040 do about

01:14:26.320 the national

01:14:26.820 debt,

01:14:27.160 they get

01:14:28.300 to run

01:14:28.620 out the

01:14:28.920 clock.

01:14:29.920 Well,

01:14:30.380 what we're

01:14:30.760 going to

01:14:30.880 do is

01:14:31.360 we're going

01:14:31.600 to do

01:14:31.740 this and

01:14:32.080 that to

01:14:32.460 do growth,

01:14:33.180 and back

01:14:33.700 in 2020

01:14:34.360 I did

01:14:34.840 this,

01:14:35.240 and I'm

01:14:35.920 going to

01:14:36.100 implement

01:14:36.420 this program.

01:14:37.680 What the

01:14:38.280 media don't

01:14:38.880 know enough

01:14:39.460 is to

01:14:39.980 say,

01:14:40.700 all right,

01:14:41.000 if you

01:14:41.320 added all

01:14:41.960 that together,

01:14:43.060 how much

01:14:43.960 do you

01:14:44.160 think that

01:14:44.480 would bring

01:14:44.780 down the

01:14:45.160 debt?

01:14:45.860 Because the

01:14:46.380 answer is

01:14:46.780 not at

01:14:47.120 all.

01:14:48.060 You could

01:14:48.620 do all

01:14:49.080 kinds of

01:14:49.720 stuff that

01:14:50.280 sound good.

01:14:51.480 You wouldn't

01:14:51.880 even get

01:14:52.220 close to it.

01:14:53.020 we're miles

01:14:54.620 away from

01:14:55.240 being able to

01:14:55.780 pay off the

01:14:56.280 debt,

01:14:56.740 miles away.

01:14:57.500 We're not

01:14:57.760 close.

01:14:58.760 It's not

01:14:59.140 like a

01:14:59.460 20%

01:15:00.000 tweak.

01:15:01.500 It's like

01:15:02.000 you really,

01:15:03.160 really,

01:15:03.440 we need to

01:15:03.800 change

01:15:04.060 everything or

01:15:05.060 you don't

01:15:05.300 have a

01:15:05.540 chance.

01:15:06.480 Now,

01:15:07.080 I think we

01:15:07.540 probably will.

01:15:08.640 We'll probably

01:15:09.160 just have to

01:15:10.320 do the hard

01:15:10.880 stuff,

01:15:11.360 maybe not

01:15:12.020 right away,

01:15:12.840 but at some

01:15:13.640 point we're

01:15:14.160 going to have

01:15:14.440 to do

01:15:14.660 something really

01:15:15.360 hard to

01:15:16.960 handle the

01:15:17.820 debt.

01:15:18.060 What I

01:15:20.260 worry about

01:15:20.980 is the

01:15:21.560 people who

01:15:21.960 know the

01:15:22.280 most know

01:15:23.180 that we'll

01:15:23.560 never pay

01:15:24.120 it back.

01:15:25.480 That's what

01:15:26.100 I worry

01:15:26.460 about.

01:15:27.220 I have

01:15:27.580 exactly one

01:15:28.640 thing that

01:15:29.140 keeps me

01:15:29.640 awake when

01:15:30.200 I think

01:15:30.560 about it.

01:15:31.660 I think

01:15:32.100 everything else

01:15:33.020 we can

01:15:33.360 handle,

01:15:34.220 from nuclear

01:15:35.020 war to

01:15:35.920 climate

01:15:37.440 change,

01:15:39.020 I think

01:15:39.480 those are

01:15:39.800 just manageable

01:15:40.680 problems.

01:15:42.420 But that

01:15:42.620 one,

01:15:45.040 in my

01:15:46.260 mind,

01:15:46.760 I don't

01:15:47.040 even have

01:15:47.620 a way

01:15:49.120 you can

01:15:49.500 do it.

01:15:51.120 I do

01:15:51.720 think we'll

01:15:52.200 probably

01:15:52.500 solve it,

01:15:53.440 because we're

01:15:53.880 good at

01:15:54.240 solving the

01:15:54.840 unsolvable

01:15:55.420 problems if

01:15:56.060 we have

01:15:56.340 time,

01:15:56.720 and I

01:15:56.920 think we

01:15:57.180 have time.

01:15:58.340 But,

01:15:59.080 wow,

01:15:59.560 I've got a

01:16:01.600 good

01:16:01.840 imagination,

01:16:03.360 and I

01:16:03.700 can't imagine

01:16:04.320 a way to

01:16:04.700 solve it.

01:16:05.920 So what I

01:16:06.440 worry about

01:16:07.000 is that the

01:16:07.500 people in

01:16:07.900 charge know

01:16:08.660 that the

01:16:09.080 value of

01:16:09.520 money will

01:16:09.920 go away, 0.98

01:16:11.240 and the

01:16:11.640 smart people

01:16:12.220 will just

01:16:12.620 hoard up

01:16:13.460 on Bitcoin

01:16:13.940 before it

01:16:14.640 happens,

01:16:15.840 and then

01:16:16.460 all the

01:16:17.140 poor people

01:16:17.660 will say,

01:16:18.000 wait,

01:16:19.020 what happened

01:16:19.500 to the

01:16:19.820 thousand dollars

01:16:20.460 I had in

01:16:20.840 the bank?

01:16:21.320 And everybody

01:16:21.700 would say,

01:16:22.020 well,

01:16:22.140 it's gone,

01:16:23.200 but how

01:16:23.600 would you

01:16:23.820 like some

01:16:24.180 UBI

01:16:24.620 instead?

01:16:25.920 You go,

01:16:26.380 what?

01:16:27.180 Yeah,

01:16:27.400 we'll give

01:16:27.680 you some

01:16:28.000 just free

01:16:28.480 money,

01:16:29.160 but all

01:16:30.020 the money

01:16:30.400 you used

01:16:30.760 to have

01:16:31.060 in the

01:16:31.300 bank,

01:16:31.660 that's

01:16:31.960 basically

01:16:32.540 worthless

01:16:32.980 now.

01:16:33.340 We

01:16:33.360 inflated it

01:16:34.020 away.

01:16:35.520 And then

01:16:36.780 they say,

01:16:37.220 well,

01:16:37.460 what are you

01:16:38.140 going to

01:16:38.320 give me?

01:16:38.760 Well,

01:16:38.920 we'll give

01:16:39.180 you some

01:16:39.600 Bitcoin.

01:16:41.540 And it'll

01:16:41.760 just,

01:16:42.780 I don't know,

01:16:43.260 somehow we'll

01:16:43.760 give you

01:16:43.980 Bitcoin.

01:16:45.000 And what

01:16:46.040 would you

01:16:46.360 say?

01:16:47.100 You'd say,

01:16:47.720 well,

01:16:48.520 my money's

01:16:49.180 worthless,

01:16:49.680 there's nothing

01:16:50.080 I can do

01:16:50.540 about that,

01:16:51.720 so I guess

01:16:52.960 I'll take

01:16:53.280 some Bitcoins

01:16:53.960 if you have

01:16:55.320 some way

01:16:55.660 to give

01:16:55.900 them to

01:16:56.100 me.

01:16:56.280 all right.

01:17:01.600 So,

01:17:02.120 yeah,

01:17:02.380 maybe we

01:17:02.820 have to

01:17:03.100 conquer

01:17:03.400 the other

01:17:03.780 countries

01:17:04.200 or something

01:17:04.620 like that.

01:17:05.420 All right,

01:17:05.660 here's a

01:17:06.160 weird little

01:17:06.800 factoid.

01:17:08.520 Ryan Peterson,

01:17:09.120 who knows a

01:17:09.780 lot about

01:17:10.440 international

01:17:11.600 shipping,

01:17:13.380 says,

01:17:14.400 one of the

01:17:14.740 largest

01:17:15.040 international

01:17:15.720 freight

01:17:16.160 forwarders in

01:17:16.900 the United

01:17:17.300 States,

01:17:17.900 JAS

01:17:18.420 forwarding,

01:17:19.860 got hit by

01:17:20.700 a massive

01:17:21.160 cyber attack,

01:17:22.300 I guess the

01:17:22.960 evening before

01:17:23.640 last.

01:17:24.440 He said,

01:17:24.780 the last time

01:17:25.300 this happened

01:17:25.720 to a major

01:17:26.280 U.S.

01:17:26.840 forwarder,

01:17:28.080 Expeditors

01:17:28.840 International of

01:17:29.740 Washington,

01:17:30.740 Putin invaded

01:17:31.520 Ukraine three

01:17:32.380 days later.

01:17:34.040 Now,

01:17:34.540 why would

01:17:34.860 they be

01:17:35.180 related?

01:17:37.000 Why would

01:17:37.440 a massive

01:17:38.020 cyber attack

01:17:38.920 against a

01:17:39.600 shipping

01:17:40.000 company

01:17:40.520 be a

01:17:42.560 foreshadowing

01:17:44.160 of some

01:17:44.780 Russian

01:17:45.400 military

01:17:46.120 action?

01:17:48.520 Maybe

01:17:49.200 somebody knows

01:17:49.840 that I

01:17:50.160 don't,

01:17:50.580 but it's

01:17:52.720 out there

01:17:53.120 as a

01:17:53.620 possible

01:17:54.580 risk.

01:17:55.720 All right,

01:17:56.480 ladies and 0.98

01:17:57.000 gentlemen,

01:17:58.040 that is my

01:17:58.700 prepared

01:17:59.060 remarks.

01:18:00.400 And I'm

01:18:01.820 sure there

01:18:02.160 will be

01:18:02.380 more

01:18:02.620 intrigues

01:18:03.120 and

01:18:03.260 outrages

01:18:03.740 coming up,

01:18:04.540 but for

01:18:04.940 now,
