Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2581 CWSA 08⧸29⧸24

00:00:00.000 Huh. All right. We've got a new wrinkle in our technology. So it looks like the video has ended. Let's try that again. We'll get this working at any moment now.

00:00:18.540 Huh. That's weird. So is this working on Locals? It looks like Locals is not working. What's up with that? If Locals doesn't come on, I'm going to have to turn it off so they can get on.

00:00:42.160 All right. Well, it looks like I'm going to have to start a separate live stream. All right. I don't know why. I don't know why. I probably pushed the wrong button.

00:00:59.560 All right. So I'm just going to start a separate stream. We've got two streams going. One isn't enough.

00:01:12.800 All right. Ladies and gentlemen, for some reason, the Locals did not load on my Rumble Studio. I probably pushed the wrong button. So you're going to be here on a separate feed. Aren't you special?

00:01:29.580 All right. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:01:47.120 And if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or gel or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind,

00:01:59.580 fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join us now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine.

00:02:05.520 At the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous septum. It's going to happen now. Go.

00:02:16.520 Oh, that's good. That's good.

00:02:20.480 All right. Here's something I've never done before. I'm going to introduce you to the people on Locals.

00:02:26.440 All right. Here's the Locals app running, and it's looking at the rest of you.

00:02:34.940 Hey, Locals, look at those other people, in case you wondered what are the comments look on the other side.

00:02:40.860 So we've got two different streams. Normally, it's one stream.

00:02:43.500 I just, I think I pushed the wrong button this morning and excluded locals accidentally.

00:02:51.460 But let's talk about all the things. There's a new video of Kamala Harris in Hinesville, Georgia.

00:02:58.860 It's one of the stops on her bus tour. That's right. She loves a bus.

00:03:04.220 It's not even a little yellow bus, but she loves it anyway.

00:03:06.680 Okay. And here's the only thing I have to say about the video of Kamala Harris in Hinesville, Georgia.

00:03:13.760 She looks drunk to me.

00:03:16.700 So take a look at it. It's on my feed, but you can find it.

00:03:21.000 And you tell me if she doesn't look drunk.

00:03:25.180 Her gesticulations are unusually theatrical, and she's got kind of that face.

00:03:32.840 I'll tell you one thing. It's not her regular personality.

00:03:37.440 So if she doesn't have some kind of a substance problem, which to me looks kind of obvious,

00:03:44.540 then we have a bigger problem because it means she has two personalities.

00:03:50.700 So whatever personality she was showing on that Hinesville stop, it's not the normal one.

00:03:58.000 That's all I'm saying. So you can judge for yourself.

00:04:02.840 Well, here's one of the reasons we love the X platform.

00:04:07.180 So Stephen King, who, as you know, is a big critic of Trump,

00:04:12.040 which makes him a big critic of anybody who likes Trump, which would include Elon Musk.

00:04:17.280 So Stephen King thinks that this would be worth his time today.

00:04:21.360 This is a post he made.

00:04:23.520 He goes, oops, SpaceX launches are on hold after a booster rocket toppled over in flames while landing Wednesday.

00:04:31.160 Now, Stephen King is not ordinarily the person who's giving you news, breaking news updates.

00:04:40.480 Why would he pick this one story to highlight?

00:04:45.960 Remember, he's not like just a general news guy.

00:04:49.000 Why? Because it makes Elon Musk look bad.

00:04:52.080 He had one thing that didn't work.

00:04:57.160 So he has to point that out.

00:04:59.160 What would you think of Stephen King if you were Elon Musk?

00:05:04.420 Well, you think he's kind of a dick, right?

00:05:06.760 Because there was no real reason he had to post that.

00:05:09.540 And he didn't have to put it on the X platform.

00:05:11.960 And it was basically just to embarrass Musk.

00:05:14.580 So here was Elon Musk's response to Stephen King.

00:05:20.280 Dick.

00:05:24.360 Not only does he call him a dick,

00:05:26.920 and then Musk uses his Grok AI to create a humorous image of Stephen King

00:05:33.820 sitting in a pile of money with a clown behind him with a big eggplant in his mouth.

00:05:41.420 Yep, that actually happened.

00:05:43.360 How entertaining is that?

00:05:49.060 Very entertaining.

00:05:50.960 Very entertaining.

00:05:52.660 I continue to like the fact that Elon Musk refuses to act like everybody thinks people should act.

00:06:00.500 He only acts the way he thinks makes sense.

00:06:03.720 He just never just conforms to what you think he should do.

00:06:07.560 Yeah, let's just call him a dick and make a funny picture about him.

00:06:10.700 Good.

00:06:10.940 Now that is someone who understands the X platform from top to bottom right there.

00:06:16.920 Here's the weirdest, creepiest news.

00:06:21.320 There's, according to New Atlas, there's some engineers who are building,

00:06:26.840 it looks like some kind of Italian company.

00:06:28.920 They're building, let's see, the Italian Institute of Technology,

00:06:32.220 who I call the Institute of Technology, because I'm worldly and global and stuff.

00:06:42.100 So you probably just say, you know, the Italian Institute of Technology, because you're so American.

00:06:48.760 Not worldly, not worldly, like me, with my good accents and stuff.

00:06:53.180 Anyway, they've developed a flying toddler robot to rescue people.

00:06:59.560 Now, you might say to yourself, robot, that's a good idea to go rescue people.

00:07:05.740 Yeah, a rescue robot.

00:07:07.080 That's good.

00:07:07.460 Then they made it better.

00:07:10.280 They made it a flying robot.

00:07:13.020 Literally, they're going to put jetpack on a robot.

00:07:16.100 And you say to yourself, now we're talking.

00:07:19.420 Are you kidding me?

00:07:20.900 A jetpack on a rescue robot?

00:07:23.320 Yes.

00:07:23.800 Robot man time.

00:07:25.000 Tony Stark.

00:07:25.980 Yes.

00:07:26.380 This is going to be the most awesome robot we've ever, wait, what does it look like?

00:07:33.360 They've made it look like a child.

00:07:36.260 So it has the face of a toddler.

00:07:39.240 And it's smallish.

00:07:41.460 It's not toddler size, but it's smaller than an adult.

00:07:45.560 Why do they have to make it so creepy?

00:07:48.920 You should see this damn thing.

00:07:50.520 It's the creepiest looking robot you've ever seen.

00:07:52.620 And I could just imagine myself trapped in a burning forest, broken leg.

00:07:59.180 I'm laying there.

00:08:00.340 Well, I guess this would be my arm, not my leg.

00:08:02.800 I'm laying there and I'm hoping for a rescue.

00:08:04.940 And all of a sudden in the sky, I see.

00:08:09.080 I'm like, yes, yes, it's my rescue robot.

00:08:13.060 Come, come to me, rescue robot.

00:08:15.100 And the rescue robot comes.

00:08:17.880 Lands there.

00:08:18.900 And you see that it looks like a creepy toddler.

00:08:22.620 Well, I would get up and start running toward the flame because that's a scary image.

00:08:28.280 A flying robot toddler with big eyes that looks like Adam Schiff just leaving the skiff.

00:08:36.380 No, thank you.

00:08:37.600 I'd rather burn in the forest fire.

00:08:40.200 No, I do want a flying robot very much.

00:08:43.900 All right.

00:08:45.340 There's this story that you can't make me care about.

00:08:49.660 I'll just mention it so that you've all heard it so you don't say, why don't you mention that story, Scott?

00:08:57.520 It's because I don't care about it.

00:09:00.200 It's the biggest fake political story.

00:09:03.840 I mean, it's probably based on some facts.

00:09:05.820 But the story is that, you know, Trump went to do some event, some photo op at the Arlington National Cemetery.

00:09:17.380 But the cemetery has some rules about photography and who can be there.

00:09:22.840 And so some people in charge were trying to prevent them from doing a big campaign photo op because you're not supposed to do political things at the cemetery.

00:09:32.780 I understand that.

00:09:34.700 I don't care.

00:09:37.460 I don't care that Arlington had some rules.

00:09:40.080 I don't care that the Trump campaign might have bent them or broke them.

00:09:44.340 I don't care that somebody took some photographs.

00:09:47.400 Nobody was trying to hurt anybody.

00:09:50.200 Can we agree on that?

00:09:52.060 Nobody had any bad intentions.

00:09:54.920 The visit to the Arlington Cemetery was about honoring fallen heroes.

00:09:59.920 Maybe somebody brought a camera.

00:10:05.040 You can't make me care about this.

00:10:07.760 No.

00:10:08.500 If people are showing their respect to fallen soldiers at a cemetery that is really designed to respect fallen soldiers, you can't make me care that one of them brought a camera.

00:10:19.900 I'm sorry.

00:10:21.100 I'm just not going to be involved in that story.

00:10:24.300 But I mentioned it just, you know, because it's going to be on the news.

00:10:27.240 Anyway, there's a study out of King's College London that says that people cannot anticipate opposing views, meaning that people know what they think and they know what people who agree with them think.

00:10:43.040 But if they try to guess what people who have different opinions think, not so good.

00:10:48.120 So it turns out that people are terrible at understanding how other people think.

00:10:54.260 Now, I've been saying that I think, at least in America, the Republicans have a better idea of what Democrats think than Democrats have what Republicans think,

00:11:04.640 because the Democrat view of things is the universal one that everybody sees.

00:11:09.360 And then the Republican view is the one that usually only Republicans see.

00:11:14.680 So at least the Republicans see both sides.

00:11:17.520 It's a general thing, right?

00:11:19.040 Not every person.

00:11:20.780 But maybe it's worse than I think.

00:11:24.600 So I would love to know if I'm wrong about this.

00:11:27.520 I'd love to know if you could actually do a test.

00:11:29.960 And you tested Republicans and Democrats, you know, some randomly chosen group, and find out which one knows more about what the other team thinks.

00:11:40.440 My assumption and observation is that the Republicans would win that hands down.

00:11:46.140 But maybe not.

00:11:48.080 Well, I'm open to the possibility that neither team would be even close.

00:11:52.460 Because there is a lot of mind reading that goes on on the Republican side.

00:11:58.740 A lot of it is, you know, they just want power and, you know, they're the WEF and they're in charge.

00:12:05.080 But no, somebody else is in charge.

00:12:07.060 So Republicans have a lot of, you know, theories about who's in charge and what people are thinking that I don't always line up with.

00:12:15.360 But it does make me wonder if I could be wrong.

00:12:18.400 By the way, this is a good hygiene tip for your brain.

00:12:25.420 If you can't occasionally say to yourself, huh, I had a strong opinion this way, but what if it's completely wrong?

00:12:33.780 And then you just allow yourself to imagine that your opinion that you've held kind of strongly and you've even said publicly, what if it's totally wrong?

00:12:43.040 So that's what I'm doing right now.

00:12:44.260 I'm modeling that.

00:12:45.580 So I think I'm right.

00:12:47.220 But I'm absolutely I'm completely open to the fact that nobody knows what the other person thinks just universally could be I wouldn't rule it out.

00:12:59.120 All right.

00:13:00.880 Did you know that there are a lot of scientific papers that reference other papers?

00:13:06.400 Because that's very common in science.

00:13:09.280 You say, well, this was true with this paper and we're building on that or we're extending into whatever.

00:13:14.300 Did you know that there are a whole bunch of papers that get referenced that got withdrawn?

00:13:22.000 But the paper that references that doesn't update.

00:13:25.720 So you have a situation where there are lots of papers, scientific papers that could be peer reviewed to make reference to other studies that were also peer reviewed at one point.

00:13:38.600 But as those other studies get withdrawn, because it turns out they don't hold up, the paper that references them doesn't get updated.

00:13:47.280 So what we have is a situation where there are there are hoaxes that are referencing other hoaxes.

00:13:57.300 Now, I'm using the word hoax, you know, too hyperbolically is just stuff that's wrong.

00:14:05.540 But so science is now a nested.

00:14:08.800 It's like the the Russian eggs.

00:14:10.920 You know, it's like a hoax insider, a hoax.

00:14:13.920 It's like the original paper is a hoax.

00:14:15.920 Then there's a new paper that references the old hoax and then other people reference them, too.

00:14:20.340 So you have thousands of people referencing a thing that didn't happen.

00:14:23.140 And then the thing that didn't happen gets debunked.

00:14:26.040 But the other stuff stays.

00:14:28.380 Now, you can sort that out.

00:14:31.760 But it's a big problem.

00:14:32.960 So I only like to point that out, because when you say that science has decided something, maybe it hasn't.

00:14:41.100 We've got a little bit more skepticism about science coming up on this show.

00:14:46.240 All right.

00:14:47.720 The Telegram CEO, that Pavel Durov.

00:14:51.620 So he's been officially indicted.

00:14:54.200 His bail has been set at an affordable price for him anyway.

00:14:58.060 And he's on a supervised release.

00:15:00.320 He's prohibited from leaving France.

00:15:03.320 What do you think a supervised release is?

00:15:07.400 What's that mean?

00:15:09.340 Supervised release.

00:15:10.520 Does that mean he has to check in?

00:15:12.440 Does that mean he's wearing an ankle bracelet?

00:15:15.720 Or does it mean that all of his communications are being monitored?

00:15:21.920 My guess is that all of his communications are being monitored.

00:15:25.620 And he probably has to check in pretty often to make sure he didn't get it on the plane.

00:15:30.320 So, but the new wrinkle is that the UAE, who I believe is his country of residence at the moment, is pushing hard to get him released.

00:15:44.340 So it turns out he's good personal friends with, I think, the prince, who might be the number two in the country or something.

00:15:53.040 And so he's got good friends at the top of the UAE, and they're pushing to get him out.

00:15:58.480 Here's what I can tell you for sure about this big, confusing situation.

00:16:04.040 We will never know why anything is happening.

00:16:09.300 We will know what happened, in some cases, and we will know who's involved, in some cases.

00:16:18.000 But we're never going to know what this is about.

00:16:22.020 Do you agree?

00:16:22.620 This is not the kind of story where it starts out foggy, but then later the details come into focus, and then we all understand the story.

00:16:31.580 We're not going to ever get close to this one.

00:16:35.460 We're just talking about these surface-y things they let us see.

00:16:39.660 We don't know what's going on at all.

00:16:42.380 The most logical...

00:16:44.320 Oh, yeah, and the UAE is putting some financial pressure on France.

00:16:47.860 I think they had a big purchase of aircraft that they might put on hold.

00:16:53.420 So the UAE is pushing pretty hard.

00:16:56.320 But I do think that the thing that is most likely to be true is that everybody wants to control the Telegram app.

00:17:06.280 And that's probably the one thing you need to know, and then everything else starts to look like it makes sense.

00:17:12.800 All right.

00:17:13.040 So the FBI was talking to reporters yesterday, and the newest update is they have not yet determined the motivation for the 20-year-old Thomas Crooks, who took a shot at the president and nicked his ear.

00:17:31.440 They say they don't know the motivation because they found he was not initially fixated on any one political figure.

00:17:38.840 And they also say they learned bomb-making starting in 2019, so it wasn't a recent thing.

00:17:45.340 For years, he's been studying bomb-making.

00:17:49.440 So isn't that convenient?

00:17:51.580 Let's see.

00:17:52.560 The information comes from the FBI, and the two updates are suspiciously good for the FBI because it would indicate that nothing has gone to...

00:18:04.840 Well, and good for Democrats, I suppose, because it would indicate that it has nothing to do with the rhetoric of the Democrats, but rather there was just this one disturbed individual who really didn't care who he took a shot at, could have been a Democrat, could have been Trump.

00:18:20.720 So don't even think it's anything about what the media is saying or anything like that.

00:18:26.000 But do you believe the FBI?

00:18:30.720 Now, I think we all say the obvious thing.

00:18:33.760 Most of the people who work at the FBI are just good citizens and patriots, and you'd love to have them as neighbors.

00:18:41.980 But we do have some questions about the leadership of the FBI from time to time.

00:18:47.860 And this is one of them.

00:18:49.060 So isn't it interesting that the two stories are just good for the FBI because it sort of absolves them and absolves the Democrats from any danger?

00:19:00.620 I'm going to say I don't believe anything about this report.

00:19:04.440 Doesn't mean it's wrong.

00:19:06.420 So I'm not saying they're lying.

00:19:08.720 I'm saying I wish I had a source that I could trust.

00:19:12.100 I totally don't trust the FBI on any of this at all.

00:19:18.060 So it's like nothing happened.

00:19:21.020 When I found out my friend got a great deal on a wool coat from Winners, I started wondering,

00:19:26.780 is every fabulous item I see from Winners?

00:19:29.920 Like that woman over there with the designer jeans.

00:19:32.640 Are those from Winners?

00:19:34.160 Ooh, or those beautiful gold earrings?

00:19:36.580 Did she pay full price?

00:19:37.940 Or that leather tote?

00:19:38.940 Or that cashmere sweater?

00:19:39.860 Or those knee-high boots?

00:19:41.340 That dress?

00:19:42.440 That jacket?

00:19:43.100 Those shoes?

00:19:44.160 Is anyone paying full price for anything?

00:19:47.080 Stop wondering.

00:19:48.340 Start winning.

00:19:49.280 Winners.

00:19:49.860 Find fabulous for less.

00:19:52.620 Meanwhile, Jim Jordan, he's asked for the CEO of that company that Judge Mershon's daughter works for.

00:20:07.620 As you know, Judge Mershon, one of the Trump lawfare judges, and not too friendly to Trump, it seems, as a daughter that is a consultant to all the people who would like Trump to be in jail, Democrats, in other words.

00:20:24.880 And so Jim Jordan wonders if the judge had any conversations with the company that his daughter worked for that would tell you something like a conflict of interest was happening.

00:20:39.480 Now, I don't think that they have a smoking gun, and the company laughed and said, no, we don't communicate with the parents of our employees.

00:20:51.080 Which is actually a really good answer.

00:20:55.120 So they put it in the form of, you know, basically laughing that they would be communicating with the father of one of their employees.

00:21:03.640 And I have to say, that's a good response.

00:21:06.640 Now, I'm not saying that they're not, that they haven't communicated.

00:21:09.500 But to answer, answer in the form of any company that would, you know, why would you ever have a conversation with some, one of your employees' fathers?

00:21:18.100 It's just not a normal thing.

00:21:19.900 So that's a good defense.

00:21:21.580 I don't expect anything's going to come out of it, even if they did have some conversations.

00:21:26.240 Probably nothing that they could find on paper.

00:21:29.180 So I don't think that'll come to anything.

00:21:32.880 But I don't mind that Jim Jordan's looking into it.

00:21:35.260 It seems like it's more political than anything else.

00:21:39.500 Well, in Michigan, they're recommissioning another closed nuclear power plant.

00:21:44.900 They're still thinking that it's easier to spin one up, even though it's been closed a long time.

00:21:51.140 But Japan has the same problem.

00:21:54.200 Basically, all over the world, people are finding that we'd better get these nuclear power plants up and running as fast as possible.

00:22:03.840 So nuclear could not be hotter as a topic.

00:22:08.260 So I'd just like to bring that up so it doesn't sneak up on you.

00:22:12.200 We're really going to have a lot of nuclear in 20 years, it looks like.

00:22:17.180 It takes a while.

00:22:18.960 So the difference is if you try to recommission one that's closed, even if it's been closed a long time, you might be able to spin it up in, say, two years.

00:22:28.520 Whereas if you tried to build one, you're looking at 10 to 20 years.

00:22:34.080 So it makes sense to open them.

00:22:36.780 All right.

00:22:37.180 So I believe maybe it's today that Kamala Harris and her emotional support mammal, also known as her vice president running mate, Walsh, will be talking to Dana Bash at CNN.

00:22:51.920 We don't know when it would be released, but we think the interview would be now would be taped.

00:22:55.340 Here's my favorite part.

00:22:59.000 You know, all the pundits are speculating that the reason for having the VP in the meeting is that he's there to keep Kamala Harris from saying something that would be embarrassing or dumb or otherwise take her out of the race.

00:23:14.800 Now, I'm trying to imagine what that would look like, because I can't, my brain can't come up with a scenario where he could help.

00:23:25.900 Imagine this.

00:23:27.880 Kamala Harris gets asked a question and she's butchering it.

00:23:32.260 So she's like, oh, well, we do the thing and what, what is her vice president going to do?

00:23:38.000 He's sitting next to her, watching her die, answering a question wrong and just like babbling through it.

00:23:45.300 What's he going to do?

00:23:47.440 You know what he's not going to do?

00:23:50.540 He's not going to mansplain.

00:23:54.280 He is not going to jump in.

00:23:56.720 So I think people were assuming that he would sort of jump in and answer the question that's a hard question that maybe he could answer better than she could.

00:24:06.140 No way.

00:24:06.700 No fricking way is that guy going to cut her off.

00:24:12.720 Nope.

00:24:13.580 And I think he'd have to be really, really, really careful.

00:24:18.720 Is it this Thursday or next Thursday?

00:24:23.260 I'm hoping it's today.

00:24:26.160 But there's no way he's going to mansplain the first potential vice, first potential woman president who's also a person of color.

00:24:36.700 How can he?

00:24:38.720 How can he possibly say, well, let me explain what Kamala is butchering with her explanation.

00:24:46.400 I'd like to say it in the white guy, good explanation way so you can understand it for the first time.

00:24:52.540 So, Kamala, do you just sit there quietly while I do your job and show that you're unqualified?

00:24:58.960 That's not going to happen.

00:25:00.080 So, I don't know what exactly he's going to do, but he's definitely not going to interrupt to give a better answer.

00:25:10.200 If he does, it's over.

00:25:12.680 It's over.

00:25:13.520 I'm going to introduce a new hypothesis that I think I said in my man cave live stream last night.

00:25:23.280 That we believe that Kamala doesn't want to do the, you know, the interviews and stuff, at least a regular interview, you know, not one where she brings an emotional support animal with her.

00:25:38.020 But that's Scott Jennings frame, by the way, the emotional support animal.

00:25:44.040 That's one of the funniest reframes I've heard all year.

00:25:46.900 So, Scott Jennings, home run, good job.

00:25:51.140 Anyway, here's my hypothesis.

00:25:55.220 I don't think that they're keeping her from talking to the press just because she's not ready, meaning that they need to solidify what their policies are and make sure she can talk to them and maybe practice a little.

00:26:09.100 It could be that.

00:26:09.940 So, it could be just no real reason to talk to the press, getting ready, they'll do it later.

00:26:17.260 So, it could be just completely ordinary reasons that everybody could understand.

00:26:22.720 I think it's something else.

00:26:25.400 I think that she has a real fear of ruining everything with one wrong word.

00:26:33.780 I think she has a little bit of, you know, social anxiety about speaking in public, but I think she's in a situation that we can't even imagine.

00:26:48.120 Imagine you're a Democrat and you believe that Trump is Hitler and that the only thing that would keep Hitler from rising is you.

00:26:57.300 So, let's say you're Kamala Harris, you think it's now your job to stop Hitler and you've got one debate planned and you know that if you do a good job in the debate, you might be able to stop Hitler.

00:27:13.780 But if you have one badly wrong moment that becomes the viral clip, you're the person who let Hitler take over.

00:27:23.800 Now, of course, Trump is not Hitler, but remember, they've all brainwashed each other into thinking they're stopping Hitler.

00:27:31.120 So, put yourself in this position.

00:27:33.840 Let's say you're not the most comfortable public speaker.

00:27:37.740 That's something that wouldn't bother Trump.

00:27:40.240 But I do think Harris has a little bit of social anxiety, something she's obviously overcome in the course of her public work.

00:27:49.840 So, she easily overcomes it.

00:27:51.760 She shows up at events, she talks to groups of people, so it's not like it's crippling.

00:27:57.740 But imagine you had the added pressure of being one of the worst public speakers, just in terms of making sense,

00:28:06.300 and you knew that one wrong sentence during the debate could change the world and just turn it into, like, darkness,

00:28:16.280 according to the Democrat narrative, which is nowhere near real, but they believe it.

00:28:21.880 Think about that pressure.

00:28:24.580 I think that the pressure on Kamala Harris to get it right would be like no other president ever,

00:28:31.600 because nobody's ever convinced themselves that they're trying to stop Hitler.

00:28:35.220 They're just trying to win an election.

00:28:36.460 And if the other person wins, it's not going to be that different.

00:28:39.720 But that's not what they think now.

00:28:42.300 So, I think that her anxiety about the debate is probably something that we can't even imagine.

00:28:50.900 It's just got to be through the roof.

00:28:52.600 I mean, it's basically her job to save a civilization by not saying something wrong.

00:28:58.540 And she's kind of famous for not saying things elegantly.

00:29:02.080 So, imagine.

00:29:04.680 Just imagine yourself in that situation.

00:29:06.580 It would be the scariest thing you could even imagine.

00:29:09.960 Anyway, that's my theory, that she's scared to death of getting it wrong.

00:29:14.220 So, there's a new poll out of Fox News that basically all the battleground states,

00:29:24.340 or the Sunbelt states, just the Sunbelt ones.

00:29:28.100 The Harris's, you know, tied, but they're within the margin of error.

00:29:32.200 Okay.

00:29:33.600 Can somebody answer this question for me?

00:29:36.980 How is it that every single adult in the United States

00:29:40.920 could have told you what the polling would look like today,

00:29:44.480 no matter who ran?

00:29:47.140 What's up with that?

00:29:49.060 If I had asked you, all right, a year ago,

00:29:52.040 all right, it's going to be a few months before the election,

00:29:55.260 and I don't even know who's going to run.

00:29:58.900 Let's say I didn't.

00:30:01.100 What will the polling look like two months before the election?

00:30:04.600 You could answer that question.

00:30:06.240 You'd say it looks like a tie, right?

00:30:08.380 Or at least it'd be within the margin of error of the polling.

00:30:12.680 Wouldn't every one of you know that?

00:30:15.460 Why do we know that?

00:30:19.180 That's not even possible.

00:30:21.120 It's not possible that we could all know it.

00:30:25.420 Normally, somebody gets something wrong.

00:30:28.280 This is the only thing I've ever seen where 100% of adults would say,

00:30:32.900 oh, yeah, it's going to be basically a tie when the election happens.

00:30:36.160 How is that possible?

00:30:38.620 I mean, really, how is that possible?

00:30:41.520 Here's what I think.

00:30:43.040 Just a hypothesis.

00:30:45.900 I think that the news is now so good at brainwashing

00:30:49.240 that even without planning to do it,

00:30:52.900 they know when to dial things up and dial it down

00:30:55.320 to make the race as close as possible.

00:30:57.740 So while it looks to us on the surface like it's two competing fields,

00:31:02.720 you know, the right-leaning press versus the left-leaning press,

00:31:06.100 and they just pick their champions and they're fighting each other,

00:31:09.540 I don't know if they are.

00:31:11.500 Maybe what they're doing is they're both turning their dials

00:31:16.320 to make sure it's as close as possible,

00:31:18.000 even not thinking of it intentionally.

00:31:20.680 It might be a completely subconscious process

00:31:23.240 where they just sort of know

00:31:25.480 that they got to pull up the pressure

00:31:28.000 or take down the pressure

00:31:29.060 or they can coast this week,

00:31:30.480 but that they all are following money.

00:31:34.500 And following the money says it's got to be close.

00:31:37.340 That's what keeps us interested.

00:31:40.300 Right?

00:31:40.780 So I always tell you that the follow-the-money hypothesis

00:31:46.200 just works all the time even when it shouldn't.

00:31:49.440 That's the fun part.

00:31:50.920 That following the money,

00:31:52.480 as in the money will tell you what the future is going to bring,

00:31:56.400 that it works even when you're positive it shouldn't.

00:32:01.260 Here's one of those times.

00:32:03.400 I believe that the press,

00:32:05.940 just following profits,

00:32:07.520 subconsciously, if not consciously,

00:32:11.540 is just turning the dials to guarantee that it's close

00:32:14.240 and they would have done it with any two candidates.

00:32:17.340 There is no correlation between policies

00:32:20.020 and polling right now.

00:32:22.600 And we know that because people are saying,

00:32:25.220 what are Kamala's policies?

00:32:27.220 We don't even know.

00:32:28.880 But we're happy to vote for it

00:32:30.460 because I don't know why.

00:32:31.280 I guess I got hypnotized.

00:32:33.400 So you're seeing a brainwashing operation work

00:32:36.960 perfectly.

00:32:40.200 There is no fucking way

00:32:43.260 this is organically tied.

00:32:47.340 It can't happen.

00:32:49.360 I mean, just statistically,

00:32:50.800 this couldn't happen on its own.

00:32:53.280 It just can't happen on its own.

00:32:54.740 It's got to be brainwashing.

00:32:57.920 Right?

00:32:59.740 You come up with another hypothesis

00:33:01.760 of how 300 million people

00:33:05.780 could have accurately guessed

00:33:07.280 and advanced the polling

00:33:08.340 without even knowing the policies

00:33:09.980 and without even knowing the candidates.

00:33:12.220 And we all would have nailed it.

00:33:14.740 What's the other explanation for that?

00:33:17.640 I don't know of one.

00:33:19.760 I mean, unless it's just

00:33:21.080 the weirdest coincidence in the world.

00:33:23.460 Claudia was leaving

00:33:25.620 for her pickleball tournament.

00:33:26.920 I've been visualizing

00:33:27.760 my match all week.

00:33:29.440 She was so focused on visualizing

00:33:31.140 that she didn't see

00:33:32.040 the column behind her car

00:33:33.180 on her backhand side.

00:33:35.480 Good thing Claudia's with Intact,

00:33:37.400 the insurer with the largest network

00:33:39.080 of auto service centers

00:33:40.060 in the country.

00:33:41.160 Everything was taken care of

00:33:42.340 under one roof

00:33:43.080 and she was on her way

00:33:44.020 in a rental car in no time.

00:33:45.600 I made it to my tournament

00:33:46.980 and lost in the first round.

00:33:48.800 But you got there on time.

00:33:51.000 Intact Insurance,

00:33:51.740 your auto service ace.

00:33:53.560 Certain conditions apply.

00:33:55.740 All right.

00:33:58.100 According to the Daily Caller,

00:34:00.780 there's a hiring process

00:34:02.180 in the government

00:34:02.980 called Schedule A.

00:34:07.360 And you can use this.

00:34:08.720 It was designed to make sure

00:34:10.820 that the government

00:34:12.220 was giving you a full,

00:34:14.580 full, let's say,

00:34:18.040 full consideration

00:34:19.440 to some hard-to-hire groups.

00:34:23.260 So that would be,

00:34:24.020 that would include people

00:34:25.020 with intellectual disabilities,

00:34:27.680 severe physical

00:34:28.580 and psychiatric disabilities.

00:34:30.480 So just making sure

00:34:31.620 that the government

00:34:32.420 can maybe cut some corners

00:34:34.300 if they're, you know,

00:34:36.060 trying to make sure

00:34:36.760 that everybody's got a shot

00:34:37.780 at a job.

00:34:38.980 Makes sense.

00:34:40.380 But there was something

00:34:41.780 in there that said

00:34:42.520 that for specialists,

00:34:44.100 if somebody has a special skill,

00:34:46.880 then you can also

00:34:48.260 use that Schedule A.

00:34:49.720 And it kind of bypasses

00:34:51.160 some normal hiring processes

00:34:52.960 and maybe some approvals.

00:34:55.720 And that the,

00:34:56.620 so the Daily Caller says

00:34:57.800 that the Biden administration

00:34:59.420 is using it

00:35:00.740 to basically

00:35:01.580 staff the Department of Justice

00:35:04.720 with a bunch of Democrats.

00:35:06.840 Now, I hope

00:35:07.900 that they're using the,

00:35:09.720 that these are the

00:35:10.920 specialist positions

00:35:12.200 and not that they're all,

00:35:14.200 they all have

00:35:14.560 intellectual disabilities.

00:35:16.540 But they have hired,

00:35:19.060 for example,

00:35:19.800 over 100 immigration judges

00:35:21.700 through a process

00:35:26.480 where they wouldn't have

00:35:27.220 a normal approval process.

00:35:29.760 So they're basically

00:35:31.200 rigging the government,

00:35:35.880 rigging the Department of Justice

00:35:37.260 by using a,

00:35:39.140 a trick

00:35:40.120 to get people

00:35:41.780 who wouldn't necessarily

00:35:42.800 be hired otherwise.

00:35:45.500 So,

00:35:46.140 that's terrible.

00:35:48.580 But not as terrible

00:35:50.020 as this.

00:35:50.820 There are at least

00:35:51.420 two places

00:35:52.120 in the United States

00:35:53.020 where Venezuelan gangs

00:35:54.460 have captured

00:35:55.260 and are holding territory.

00:35:57.980 One is Denver

00:35:59.340 and the other

00:36:01.500 is California.

00:36:04.060 There,

00:36:04.300 there's a,

00:36:05.120 some,

00:36:05.900 some kind of

00:36:06.740 apartment housing area

00:36:07.820 where the Venezuelan

00:36:08.780 armed gangs

00:36:09.620 just took it over

00:36:10.600 and they're holding it.

00:36:13.280 It's not that they took it over

00:36:15.020 because you can imagine

00:36:16.600 bad things happen

00:36:17.460 until they get corrected.

00:36:18.780 They're holding the territory

00:36:20.340 in Denver as well.

00:36:23.000 They've taken over

00:36:24.000 some real estate

00:36:24.860 and they're holding it

00:36:25.840 with armed,

00:36:27.200 with armed people.

00:36:29.860 The United States

00:36:31.120 is actually smaller

00:36:32.680 because whatever's happening

00:36:35.000 within that territory

00:36:36.300 that they hold,

00:36:37.120 that's no longer

00:36:37.980 the United States.

00:36:41.340 It's not like

00:36:42.280 somebody just did a crime.

00:36:44.280 They're controlling territory.

00:36:46.680 They actually stole

00:36:48.320 part of the United States

00:36:50.580 because there's,

00:36:51.460 there's no Department of Justice

00:36:52.800 in there,

00:36:53.620 in their held territory.

00:36:55.380 There's no

00:36:56.280 America police force.

00:36:59.520 That's Venezuelan now.

00:37:01.000 We have two parts

00:37:03.380 of America

00:37:03.860 that are literally

00:37:04.920 Venezuelan controlled

00:37:07.320 because we don't have,

00:37:09.880 I don't know,

00:37:11.100 the will

00:37:11.540 or the resources

00:37:12.940 to stop it,

00:37:13.700 I guess.

00:37:14.460 Now,

00:37:15.060 I like to think

00:37:16.140 we will stop it,

00:37:17.360 but I thought that

00:37:18.900 when there was only

00:37:19.680 one place

00:37:20.280 that Venezuelans

00:37:21.200 were capturing

00:37:22.160 and holding,

00:37:23.200 now they have two.

00:37:26.040 It's probably

00:37:26.960 more than that.

00:37:27.820 Wow.

00:37:33.100 I think it'll get corrected,

00:37:35.900 but

00:37:36.640 let me,

00:37:39.180 let me go back

00:37:40.020 to my prior point

00:37:40.980 about the poll being

00:37:42.040 that the polling says

00:37:43.760 that race is a tie.

00:37:45.640 Just think about this.

00:37:48.060 The border is so open

00:37:49.800 that armed

00:37:51.600 Venezuelan criminals

00:37:53.100 are holding territory

00:37:54.960 in the United States

00:37:55.980 and

00:37:56.540 the election

00:37:57.860 is a tie.

00:38:00.400 Really?

00:38:02.120 Really?

00:38:04.160 Foreign nationals

00:38:05.380 have captured

00:38:06.080 and are holding territory

00:38:07.400 in the United States

00:38:08.440 and the election

00:38:10.000 is a tie?

00:38:13.080 What?

00:38:14.780 How is this even

00:38:15.880 a little bit possible?

00:38:16.920 Again,

00:38:18.540 it's massive brainwashing.

00:38:19.980 It's the only way

00:38:20.480 you can get here.

00:38:21.360 You couldn't get

00:38:22.300 to this place

00:38:23.120 without massive brainwashing.

00:38:27.220 So that's the explanation

00:38:28.500 for everything.

00:38:29.740 Well, as you know,

00:38:30.880 the Biden administration

00:38:31.940 has tried a bunch

00:38:32.820 of things

00:38:33.220 to cancel

00:38:33.900 a bunch of student debts

00:38:35.140 and conservatives

00:38:37.120 and courts

00:38:38.220 and America First

00:38:40.220 and other groups

00:38:41.360 have sued

00:38:42.720 and tried to prevent

00:38:44.000 these things

00:38:44.760 and, you know,

00:38:45.500 that story's getting

00:38:46.180 a little boring for me

00:38:47.160 but I'm going to

00:38:47.920 take it up a notch.

00:38:51.120 Instead of the government

00:38:52.180 paying off

00:38:52.920 student debt

00:38:54.680 and that seems

00:38:56.960 very unfair

00:38:57.540 to all of us,

00:38:59.660 how about this?

00:39:02.260 How about the government

00:39:02.980 pays off

00:39:03.500 all consumer debt?

00:39:05.380 All of it.

00:39:06.600 Your car loan,

00:39:07.900 your house loan,

00:39:09.100 your entire mortgage,

00:39:10.780 all of your credit cards.

00:39:13.240 All at once.

00:39:14.160 How much would that cost?

00:39:16.760 Well, the current debt

00:39:18.320 of the entire United States

00:39:20.300 is around $36 trillion.

00:39:24.080 There's no way

00:39:24.920 we'll ever be able

00:39:25.680 to pay that back

00:39:26.420 or survive.

00:39:28.880 If you were to pay off

00:39:29.960 all the consumer debt,

00:39:32.100 it would be another

00:39:32.940 $17 trillion on top.

00:39:36.660 What's the difference?

00:39:39.580 What's the difference?

00:39:40.440 If you can't pay it back

00:39:42.840 and you're doomed,

00:39:43.880 you might as well

00:39:44.400 enjoy the ride.

00:39:45.940 So you might as well

00:39:46.740 just remove all debt

00:39:47.900 just to, you know,

00:39:49.560 one time ever

00:39:50.280 kind of thing.

00:39:50.980 Make sure everybody knows

00:39:52.100 that they can't run up

00:39:53.240 some more debt

00:39:53.860 because you're not

00:39:54.400 going to ever do it again.

00:39:55.600 So it'd have to be,

00:39:56.620 you know,

00:39:56.840 very clear it's once only.

00:39:59.820 What would happen?

00:40:01.460 Well,

00:40:01.960 imagine that

00:40:02.740 the $17 trillion

00:40:04.200 of debt

00:40:05.020 was taken away

00:40:05.900 from consumers.

00:40:07.440 What would they do?

00:40:08.420 they might

00:40:10.540 upgrade their house.

00:40:13.620 They might

00:40:14.820 be able to consume more

00:40:16.840 because they don't have

00:40:17.600 to pay the banks.

00:40:21.140 You would have

00:40:21.960 this massive growth

00:40:23.340 that maybe

00:40:26.140 would give you

00:40:26.660 a better chance

00:40:27.300 of paying off the debt

00:40:28.220 than if you hadn't done it.

00:40:30.560 Here's what I know

00:40:31.920 for sure.

00:40:32.960 We don't know anything

00:40:34.160 about economics.

00:40:36.740 You know,

00:40:37.000 if you say to yourself,

00:40:38.180 but Scott,

00:40:39.100 that's obviously

00:40:40.180 a bad idea

00:40:41.040 to pay off

00:40:41.680 all consumer debt.

00:40:42.960 Is it?

00:40:44.260 Where's your study?

00:40:46.400 It would massively

00:40:47.820 boost

00:40:48.480 consumer spending,

00:40:50.280 which is usually

00:40:50.880 the driver

00:40:51.460 of the economy.

00:40:54.660 Are you telling me

00:40:55.540 it wouldn't work?

00:40:57.360 Why would it work

00:40:58.380 to forgive

00:40:59.780 student debt?

00:41:01.600 Why is that

00:41:02.180 the special

00:41:02.720 magical debt?

00:41:04.140 What makes

00:41:04.660 that magic?

00:41:05.220 work?

00:41:07.380 If

00:41:07.820 taking debt

00:41:10.560 away from people

00:41:11.380 who are

00:41:11.960 buried with debt

00:41:13.500 is a good idea,

00:41:15.820 why is it just

00:41:17.880 for students?

00:41:19.780 See,

00:41:20.200 the thing is,

00:41:20.760 if it pays

00:41:21.320 for itself,

00:41:22.340 and by the way,

00:41:22.900 I think it might.

00:41:24.140 It might actually

00:41:24.920 pay for itself.

00:41:26.520 I'm not sure

00:41:27.240 anybody's smart

00:41:27.900 enough to know.

00:41:29.640 If the government

00:41:30.560 spends money

00:41:31.500 to make money,

00:41:34.080 I'm not,

00:41:34.960 I don't hate that.

00:41:36.400 Let me give you

00:41:36.920 another example.

00:41:38.680 You probably heard

00:41:39.480 the story

00:41:39.820 that California

00:41:40.500 is going to

00:41:41.060 make money available

00:41:42.500 for non-citizens

00:41:43.560 to get homes.

00:41:44.900 And you said to yourself,

00:41:46.140 what?

00:41:47.680 Non-citizens

00:41:48.500 to get homes?

00:41:49.520 This is crazy.

00:41:50.520 But then you look

00:41:51.000 at the details.

00:41:52.780 And the details are,

00:41:53.900 they're not giving you

00:41:54.620 the money.

00:41:55.820 You have to pay it back

00:41:57.140 when you sell the house.

00:41:59.140 So if you get

00:42:00.020 into a house

00:42:00.720 and housing prices

00:42:02.280 go up over time

00:42:03.860 and you're paying

00:42:04.980 down your loan,

00:42:06.360 you've built up

00:42:06.960 some equity.

00:42:08.440 But if your equity

00:42:09.360 gets to the point

00:42:10.180 where it's the same amount

00:42:11.420 that you were given

00:42:13.740 and you sell the house,

00:42:15.980 you've got to pay

00:42:16.540 back the loan.

00:42:17.120 So the government

00:42:19.580 gives nothing

00:42:20.880 because they're

00:42:22.060 getting it back.

00:42:23.460 Now remember,

00:42:24.980 these are only

00:42:26.240 borrowers,

00:42:27.560 they might be

00:42:28.000 non-citizens,

00:42:28.980 but they still have

00:42:29.760 to qualify

00:42:30.420 as qualified buyers

00:42:31.680 who can pay back

00:42:32.440 a loan just like

00:42:33.240 everybody else.

00:42:34.660 So most of them

00:42:35.840 would accept

00:42:37.580 the money.

00:42:39.740 Someday when they

00:42:40.600 sold the house,

00:42:41.900 the government

00:42:42.840 gets it back.

00:42:44.580 And I assume

00:42:45.000 that would happen

00:42:45.520 even if they died

00:42:47.200 and there was

00:42:47.680 an estate situation.

00:42:49.860 But on top of that,

00:42:52.200 the government

00:42:52.900 would take some

00:42:53.780 percentage of profit

00:42:55.340 in the increase

00:42:56.160 of the value

00:42:56.700 of your home.

00:42:58.380 So if your house

00:43:00.080 doubled in value,

00:43:01.920 when you go

00:43:03.140 to pay back

00:43:03.780 the loan,

00:43:04.940 I think you pay back

00:43:05.720 twice as much

00:43:06.440 as you got

00:43:07.060 because your house

00:43:08.100 went up in value.

00:43:09.000 So some calculation

00:43:10.040 in that neighborhood.

00:43:11.980 So the way

00:43:13.120 it was designed

00:43:13.940 is that if

00:43:15.720 everything worked

00:43:16.360 perfectly

00:43:16.900 and the loan

00:43:18.040 defaults were just

00:43:18.980 sort of a normal

00:43:19.660 2% or whatever,

00:43:21.260 that the government

00:43:22.240 would probably

00:43:22.680 make money.

00:43:24.260 It would actually

00:43:25.180 legitimately be

00:43:26.480 an investment.

00:43:28.120 Now, it would take

00:43:28.840 a long time

00:43:29.400 for the money

00:43:29.820 to come back,

00:43:30.620 so you got to

00:43:31.940 discount that

00:43:33.440 and calculate it all.

00:43:34.620 But at least

00:43:35.420 there's at least

00:43:36.420 the model

00:43:37.100 that suggests

00:43:38.120 you could get

00:43:39.520 some back.

00:43:40.040 So I do like

00:43:41.320 anything that

00:43:42.000 the government

00:43:42.640 does that they've

00:43:43.940 at least calculated

00:43:44.840 they can make

00:43:45.400 a profit.

00:43:48.300 I'm much less

00:43:49.660 opposed to that

00:43:51.380 kind of spending

00:43:52.060 if it looks like,

00:43:53.920 oh, that's got

00:43:54.500 a good return

00:43:55.020 on investment.

00:43:56.380 Not in the way

00:43:57.140 that Kamala Harris

00:43:57.840 says it.

00:43:59.920 So just think

00:44:00.820 about it.

00:44:01.440 I say this more

00:44:02.340 as a, by the way,

00:44:03.900 this is more

00:44:04.380 of a mental

00:44:05.340 experiment.

00:44:07.180 If you can tell

00:44:08.200 me why we

00:44:09.100 shouldn't

00:44:10.040 just get rid

00:44:10.840 of all consumer

00:44:11.540 debt,

00:44:12.800 I'm open to that.

00:44:14.540 I'm not saying

00:44:15.160 this is a great

00:44:15.840 idea.

00:44:16.980 I'm saying that

00:44:18.100 if the concept

00:44:19.020 of getting rid

00:44:19.680 of student debt

00:44:20.400 makes sense

00:44:21.060 and we have

00:44:22.960 no hope

00:44:23.440 of paying back

00:44:24.020 the debt anyway,

00:44:26.740 why not give

00:44:27.920 everybody a break

00:44:28.760 and we'll enjoy

00:44:29.420 the ride to doom?

00:44:32.620 All right.

00:44:33.420 So I'm not

00:44:34.020 100% serious

00:44:35.240 about this.

00:44:36.420 It's just that

00:44:37.340 if you don't

00:44:37.900 understand why

00:44:38.640 it's a good

00:44:39.120 or a bad idea,

00:44:40.040 then you probably

00:44:40.860 don't understand

00:44:41.500 the whole topic.

00:44:44.120 And I don't.

00:44:45.320 I don't understand

00:44:46.440 if it's a good

00:44:47.020 or bad idea.

00:44:48.080 So I don't

00:44:48.900 understand the

00:44:49.460 whole topic,

00:44:50.100 but I'm sure

00:44:50.480 nobody else

00:44:51.060 does.

00:44:51.480 That's my problem.

00:44:53.380 I don't think

00:44:53.880 anybody does

00:44:54.600 understand the

00:44:55.600 national debt

00:44:56.300 and what the

00:44:57.320 real implications

00:44:58.520 are and

00:44:59.240 where that's

00:45:00.560 going.

00:46:01.680 All right.

00:46:05.140 According to Newsmax,

00:46:06.420 82% of Americans

00:46:07.600 are considering

00:46:08.480 delaying retirement.

00:46:11.980 I don't even know

00:46:13.920 how anybody would

00:46:15.340 retire.

00:46:17.020 Here's why.

00:46:21.140 People who have

00:46:22.380 good jobs and

00:46:24.180 they have the

00:46:24.680 ability to not

00:46:25.620 retire are

00:46:27.360 thinking to

00:46:27.900 themselves some

00:46:28.760 version of this.

00:46:29.620 whatever I used

00:46:31.440 to think I

00:46:32.040 needed, I might

00:46:32.960 need 10 times

00:46:33.840 more.

00:46:35.260 So they're not

00:46:36.100 going to quit.

00:46:37.200 Because the value

00:46:38.180 of money might

00:46:39.100 just decrease to

00:46:40.000 the point that

00:46:40.500 whatever you've

00:46:41.160 saved, you'd

00:46:41.800 better have a lot

00:46:42.360 more.

00:46:43.320 So every year

00:46:44.680 you work gets

00:46:45.680 you more of

00:46:46.360 what you want.

00:46:47.580 But on top of

00:46:48.460 that, I think

00:46:49.900 there are going

00:46:50.200 to be so many

00:46:51.020 people who can't

00:46:51.920 work, either

00:46:52.860 because robots

00:46:53.460 take their jobs

00:46:54.480 or one reason

00:46:55.260 or another, that

00:46:56.460 the people who

00:46:57.260 can work and

00:46:59.600 can add to

00:47:00.360 the economy,

00:47:02.160 we're almost

00:47:03.340 obligated to do

00:47:04.380 it.

00:47:05.420 That's what I

00:47:05.960 feel.

00:47:06.720 I feel that

00:47:07.760 because I'm

00:47:08.540 physically capable

00:47:09.520 of working and

00:47:10.940 physically capable

00:47:12.080 of adding to

00:47:12.940 the economy, that

00:47:14.720 retirement would

00:47:15.520 be unethical in

00:47:16.380 my case.

00:47:17.960 Does anybody

00:47:18.580 feel that?

00:47:20.160 Like, in

00:47:21.460 theory, I have

00:47:22.460 the wherewithal

00:47:23.240 that I could

00:47:23.720 just stop

00:47:24.180 working and

00:47:24.760 just do

00:47:26.560 whatever I

00:47:27.040 want all

00:47:27.420 day.

00:47:28.940 In practice,

00:47:30.300 I feel like

00:47:31.500 if I just

00:47:32.800 retired, I

00:47:33.620 would become

00:47:34.000 a drain on

00:47:34.700 the system

00:47:35.240 instead of

00:47:36.400 a benefit,

00:47:38.260 and I

00:47:39.240 can't do

00:47:39.780 that.

00:47:40.940 Like, my

00:47:41.380 brain won't

00:47:41.960 let me be a

00:47:42.620 drain on the

00:47:43.180 system if I

00:47:44.400 have the

00:47:44.740 physical ability

00:47:45.820 to be the

00:47:46.660 opposite of

00:47:47.160 that and add

00:47:47.700 to it.

00:47:48.560 Because we're

00:47:50.280 going to need

00:47:50.780 a lot more

00:47:51.520 margin of

00:47:52.360 safety than

00:47:52.900 we have,

00:47:53.500 because we've

00:47:54.160 got some big

00:47:54.680 stuff coming.

00:47:56.120 You know,

00:47:56.340 that robot

00:47:56.860 in AI age,

00:47:58.420 we don't

00:47:58.880 know what

00:47:59.200 that's going

00:47:59.560 to do.

00:48:00.500 So those

00:48:01.300 of us who

00:48:01.840 might have

00:48:02.400 some, you

00:48:02.980 know, extra

00:48:03.580 resources, we're

00:48:05.020 going to need

00:48:05.460 extra, extra,

00:48:06.520 extra resources

00:48:07.340 because there are

00:48:08.420 going to be

00:48:08.700 people who need

00:48:09.420 it, whether you

00:48:10.920 like it or not,

00:48:11.520 whether it gets

00:48:11.940 taken by taxes or

00:48:13.060 you're just

00:48:13.380 helping your

00:48:13.820 family who's

00:48:14.480 not doing so

00:48:15.140 well.

00:48:15.580 One way or

00:48:16.300 another, the

00:48:17.560 people who can

00:48:18.260 make money, it

00:48:21.020 feels like an

00:48:21.600 obligation to do

00:48:22.460 it.

00:48:22.680 So I'm just

00:48:24.860 speaking personally

00:48:25.880 that I feel

00:48:27.540 like retiring

00:48:29.100 just wouldn't

00:48:30.000 be morally

00:48:30.640 and ethically

00:48:31.500 appropriate as

00:48:33.980 long as I can

00:48:34.740 still get up

00:48:35.280 and do what I

00:48:35.720 do.

00:48:37.340 So I guess

00:48:38.820 I'll keep doing

00:48:39.300 it for a while.

00:48:41.720 Well, I was

00:48:43.160 impressed that

00:48:43.840 some Democrats

00:48:44.580 are making a

00:48:45.180 good argument

00:48:45.760 for why you

00:48:46.460 don't need to

00:48:46.980 see the policy

00:48:47.700 details for

00:48:49.080 Harris.

00:48:50.600 Are you ready

00:48:51.320 for this?

00:48:51.780 What possible

00:48:54.360 argument could

00:48:55.300 you make that

00:48:57.120 says you don't

00:48:57.680 really need to

00:48:58.260 see the policy

00:48:59.100 details?

00:49:00.320 Do you think

00:49:01.020 they can do

00:49:01.500 it?

00:49:02.720 Before I tell

00:49:03.540 you what the

00:49:03.880 arguments are,

00:49:05.280 do you think

00:49:05.780 that you'll just

00:49:06.600 laugh at them

00:49:07.220 like, okay,

00:49:07.820 that's just

00:49:08.500 stupid?

00:49:11.720 Let's test

00:49:12.440 it.

00:49:13.200 I hear the

00:49:13.620 argument.

00:49:15.240 That the

00:49:15.860 point of having

00:49:17.260 detailed policies,

00:49:18.940 now we all

00:49:19.640 know that the

00:49:20.400 details of any

00:49:21.260 policy get

00:49:22.060 worked out

00:49:22.540 through Congress

00:49:23.400 and lots

00:49:24.040 of negotiating.

00:49:25.220 So even if a

00:49:26.100 candidate had a

00:49:27.280 specific policy,

00:49:29.340 there's no reason

00:49:30.420 to think that

00:49:30.920 that is going

00:49:32.160 to become law

00:49:33.720 and say

00:49:34.100 everything gets

00:49:34.660 negotiated.

00:49:36.220 So Democrats

00:49:37.640 say that the

00:49:38.560 purpose of having

00:49:39.740 specific policies

00:49:40.920 as a candidate,

00:49:42.200 wait for this,

00:49:43.560 is to highlight

00:49:44.360 their values.

00:49:45.280 and I say,

00:49:48.080 huh, okay,

00:49:49.700 so far I'm

00:49:50.780 with you,

00:49:51.740 that the reason

00:49:52.400 to have detailed

00:49:53.180 policies such as

00:49:54.300 build a wall

00:49:54.960 is so that you

00:49:56.220 can understand the

00:49:56.960 values.

00:49:58.020 So Trump says

00:49:58.720 build a wall

00:49:59.420 and then I say,

00:50:01.260 oh, his value

00:50:02.220 is he wants to

00:50:03.020 really protect

00:50:04.060 the border.

00:50:05.020 The details,

00:50:06.580 wall, no wall,

00:50:07.940 whatever it is,

00:50:08.820 but he wants to

00:50:09.700 protect the border.

00:50:11.140 So I think,

00:50:12.260 yeah, actually,

00:50:12.880 that makes sense

00:50:14.380 and you can see

00:50:15.840 some Democrat

00:50:16.760 policies where

00:50:18.460 you say,

00:50:19.020 all right,

00:50:19.460 that's not exactly

00:50:20.320 what's going to

00:50:20.880 happen probably,

00:50:22.120 but you can see

00:50:22.780 that they're,

00:50:23.420 you know,

00:50:23.940 valuing this

00:50:24.700 community,

00:50:25.660 you are valuing

00:50:26.300 this thing.

00:50:28.300 And I said to

00:50:29.160 myself,

00:50:29.900 I hate the fact

00:50:31.580 that that makes

00:50:32.120 complete sense.

00:50:33.720 So here's the

00:50:34.620 second part of it.

00:50:35.600 The reason for

00:50:36.300 detailed policies

00:50:37.080 is just so

00:50:38.000 everybody understands

00:50:38.920 their values

00:50:39.660 and we're

00:50:42.280 already in a

00:50:43.120 values race.

00:50:45.260 That's,

00:50:45.820 that's the

00:50:46.280 kill shot.

00:50:47.600 The point of

00:50:48.680 individual specific

00:50:49.860 policies is just

00:50:51.040 to say where

00:50:51.620 you're heading,

00:50:52.660 but we're

00:50:53.800 already past

00:50:54.540 that.

00:50:55.120 We're already

00:50:55.700 into the,

00:50:56.260 it's very clear

00:50:56.980 what Kamala

00:50:57.880 Harris cares

00:50:58.540 about.

00:50:59.120 It's very clear

00:51:00.040 what Trump

00:51:00.480 cares about.

00:51:01.860 We've already

00:51:02.540 passed the need

00:51:03.240 to have specific

00:51:03.960 policies.

00:51:06.620 Now,

00:51:07.160 that's a little

00:51:07.560 conceptual.

00:51:09.720 You have to

00:51:10.420 sort of think

00:51:10.960 about it for a

00:51:11.600 minute,

00:51:11.760 but if you

00:51:12.360 think about

00:51:12.800 it,

00:51:13.020 I agree

00:51:13.420 with that.

00:51:14.440 There's

00:51:14.700 probably no

00:51:15.200 reason for

00:51:15.700 specific

00:51:16.180 policies.

00:51:17.440 Do you

00:51:17.940 know who

00:51:18.220 wants specific

00:51:19.000 policies?

00:51:20.340 The press.

00:51:21.980 The press

00:51:22.760 wants specific

00:51:23.660 policies so they

00:51:24.520 have something

00:51:24.860 to argue about

00:51:25.620 and criticize.

00:51:27.600 But if you

00:51:28.500 were to talk

00:51:29.240 to the

00:51:29.740 citizens,

00:51:30.880 not the

00:51:31.300 ones like

00:51:32.060 me who are

00:51:32.800 following the

00:51:33.600 news and

00:51:34.140 we're news

00:51:35.340 nerds,

00:51:36.000 but just an

00:51:36.540 average person

00:51:37.240 and say,

00:51:38.480 do you need

00:51:38.840 details of

00:51:39.860 Kamala Harris's

00:51:40.580 policies or

00:51:41.180 do you feel

00:51:41.540 like you

00:51:42.160 generally know

00:51:42.780 which way

00:51:43.140 she's leaning?

00:51:44.580 I think

00:51:45.420 95% of

00:51:48.420 Democrats would

00:51:49.120 say,

00:51:49.400 you know what?

00:51:50.280 I don't really

00:51:51.120 need the details.

00:51:52.720 I know she

00:51:53.520 wants to raise

00:51:54.160 the taxes on

00:51:54.880 the wealthy.

00:51:56.000 Check.

00:51:57.280 Right?

00:51:57.620 I know she

00:51:58.140 wants to be a

00:51:59.400 little kinder on

00:52:00.320 the border but

00:52:01.080 still add some

00:52:01.840 security.

00:52:03.500 Check.

00:52:03.880 I don't

00:52:06.060 think they

00:52:06.380 need the

00:52:06.720 details.

00:52:07.560 I think it's

00:52:07.980 just the

00:52:08.360 press and

00:52:09.300 the nerds

00:52:10.020 like me who

00:52:10.700 would care.

00:52:12.760 But the

00:52:13.400 public doesn't

00:52:13.980 care.

00:52:15.420 So here's

00:52:16.800 another one.

00:52:18.740 Only a dozen

00:52:19.620 podcasters care

00:52:20.680 about the

00:52:21.080 policy details.

00:52:22.300 So this is

00:52:22.800 also Democrats

00:52:23.800 defending the

00:52:24.600 lack of

00:52:24.940 details.

00:52:26.180 Yup.

00:52:27.120 You're right.

00:52:28.700 Yup.

00:52:29.660 It's the

00:52:30.080 podcasters who

00:52:30.940 care so we

00:52:31.380 have something

00:52:31.700 to talk about.

00:52:32.320 You're totally

00:52:33.820 right.

00:52:34.540 If I were just

00:52:35.700 voting, I'd

00:52:37.500 feel like I

00:52:38.000 knew enough.

00:52:39.880 But as

00:52:40.600 somebody who

00:52:41.240 talks about it

00:52:41.800 every day, I

00:52:42.280 was like,

00:52:42.580 huh, give me

00:52:43.360 something to

00:52:43.680 talk about,

00:52:44.200 bitches.

00:52:45.120 I want

00:52:45.320 something to

00:52:45.660 talk about.

00:52:46.780 But I don't

00:52:47.420 need it.

00:52:48.680 I mean, it

00:52:49.060 wouldn't change

00:52:49.580 my vote.

00:52:51.840 So, I

00:52:52.360 mean, and

00:52:53.540 then you look

00:52:53.980 at, say, the

00:52:54.660 tax policy.

00:52:56.660 So Kamala

00:52:57.100 Harris' tax

00:52:57.880 policy probably

00:52:59.920 just gave

00:53:00.800 people reasons

00:53:01.960 to not

00:53:02.480 vote for.

00:53:03.980 Because the

00:53:04.520 people who

00:53:04.800 were going

00:53:05.180 to vote

00:53:05.640 for her may

00:53:06.920 have liked

00:53:07.320 it, but

00:53:07.600 they were

00:53:07.820 going to

00:53:08.140 vote for

00:53:08.540 her.

00:53:09.560 There were

00:53:10.000 certainly

00:53:10.340 people who

00:53:11.100 had a lot

00:53:11.640 of wealth

00:53:12.140 who don't

00:53:12.580 want to

00:53:12.840 see a

00:53:13.260 wealth tax.

00:53:15.380 So every

00:53:16.280 policy detail

00:53:17.980 she gives

00:53:18.620 is bad

00:53:19.120 news for

00:53:19.560 her.

00:53:20.320 She gives

00:53:20.580 people a

00:53:20.980 reason to

00:53:21.360 say no,

00:53:21.880 but doesn't

00:53:22.540 really increase

00:53:23.220 the reason

00:53:23.620 to say yes.

00:53:25.280 Try to

00:53:25.680 think of any

00:53:26.180 policy that she

00:53:27.060 could have

00:53:27.620 that would

00:53:28.500 make people

00:53:29.000 say, oh,

00:53:29.480 now I'm on

00:53:30.020 that team.

00:53:31.360 I don't

00:53:31.700 know what

00:53:31.940 that would

00:53:32.240 be.

00:53:35.140 I can't

00:53:35.840 think of

00:53:36.100 anything.

00:53:37.240 So really,

00:53:37.960 they don't

00:53:38.560 have much

00:53:39.040 reason to

00:53:39.520 give us

00:53:39.800 policy details.

00:53:41.120 And they

00:53:41.740 say that

00:53:42.260 focusing on

00:53:42.880 a vision of

00:53:43.460 the future

00:53:43.940 and their

00:53:44.340 priorities is

00:53:45.080 more important.

00:53:46.040 I agree.

00:53:47.860 I hate to

00:53:48.700 say it.

00:53:49.980 Democrats have

00:53:51.020 succeeded in

00:53:52.280 convincing me in

00:53:53.300 a perfectly

00:53:54.020 reasonable, not

00:53:55.040 just persuasive,

00:53:55.760 sensitive, but

00:53:57.080 my sense of

00:53:58.000 reason agrees,

00:53:59.260 yeah, they

00:53:59.620 don't really

00:54:00.040 need it.

00:54:01.180 It's just

00:54:01.580 something that

00:54:02.140 I want.

00:54:04.960 I wasn't

00:54:05.780 really expecting

00:54:06.420 there would be

00:54:06.820 a good argument

00:54:07.520 for not having

00:54:08.240 policies, but

00:54:09.600 there it is.

00:54:10.200 It's pretty

00:54:10.520 good.

00:54:12.500 Nicole

00:54:12.940 Shanahan, as

00:54:14.840 you know,

00:54:15.380 she was RFK,

00:54:17.120 well, I guess

00:54:17.580 she still is.

00:54:18.160 RFK Jr.'s

00:54:18.940 running mate,

00:54:20.340 because technically

00:54:21.200 his campaign is

00:54:23.160 still active-ish,

00:54:25.240 he's just not

00:54:25.860 campaigning.

00:54:28.040 Anyway, she

00:54:28.760 said that

00:54:29.280 Democrats have

00:54:30.540 lost their

00:54:31.140 soul.

00:54:32.180 She said that

00:54:32.780 during a Fox

00:54:33.440 News interview.

00:54:34.480 They've lost

00:54:35.000 their soul,

00:54:35.600 they've lost

00:54:35.940 their direction.

00:54:39.120 That's

00:54:39.600 perfectly said.

00:54:42.700 Because,

00:54:43.360 again, if you

00:54:43.820 get into the

00:54:44.360 details of

00:54:45.120 stuff, you

00:54:47.680 know, you

00:54:47.880 could argue

00:54:48.320 all day, but

00:54:49.360 the bigger

00:54:49.780 picture is

00:54:50.580 they do seem

00:54:51.900 to have lost

00:54:52.540 all interest in

00:54:53.500 free speech

00:54:54.660 and transparency

00:54:56.480 and citizens

00:54:58.860 picking their

00:54:59.560 candidates and

00:55:00.480 all those things

00:55:01.280 that you think

00:55:01.880 would be part

00:55:03.220 of the

00:55:03.640 historical

00:55:04.440 Democrat

00:55:05.760 soul.

00:55:06.880 They don't

00:55:07.780 seem to be

00:55:08.380 interested in

00:55:09.200 anything but

00:55:09.860 winning and

00:55:10.600 keeping Trump

00:55:11.180 out of office.

00:55:12.480 So, yeah, I

00:55:13.120 think they went

00:55:13.580 from, you know,

00:55:14.280 who they are

00:55:15.340 to who Trump

00:55:17.040 is.

00:55:18.520 Oh, that's a

00:55:19.220 good way to

00:55:19.640 say it.

00:55:19.980 Well, I

00:55:22.200 often say that

00:55:22.940 the things you

00:55:23.580 do are what

00:55:25.280 make you who

00:55:25.840 you are.

00:55:26.320 It's not your

00:55:26.700 thoughts.

00:55:27.720 It's what you

00:55:28.160 do.

00:55:29.100 So you can

00:55:29.540 have bad

00:55:29.960 thoughts, but

00:55:30.600 you're not a

00:55:30.980 bad person if

00:55:32.080 you don't do

00:55:32.580 bad things.

00:55:33.700 If you have

00:55:34.300 bad thoughts, but

00:55:35.220 you only do

00:55:35.940 good things that

00:55:36.660 are good for

00:55:37.080 other people,

00:55:38.300 well, you're a

00:55:38.980 good person.

00:55:40.420 That's how I

00:55:41.120 see it.

00:55:41.880 And I think

00:55:42.400 that the

00:55:42.880 Democrats, no

00:55:44.260 matter what

00:55:44.860 their internal

00:55:45.780 thinking is,

00:55:47.060 they've gone

00:55:47.600 from who are

00:55:49.500 you.

00:55:50.780 Well, who

00:55:51.320 do you want

00:55:51.680 to be?

00:55:52.300 Well, I'd

00:55:53.320 like to be a

00:55:53.820 person who's

00:55:54.540 in favor of

00:55:55.520 peace and

00:55:56.420 prosperity and

00:55:58.160 everybody gets

00:55:59.120 a shot and

00:55:59.900 that's who you

00:56:00.700 want to be.

00:56:01.480 But that's not

00:56:02.160 what this race

00:56:02.700 is.

00:56:03.660 This race is

00:56:04.520 about Trump.

00:56:07.120 So if the

00:56:07.980 race is about

00:56:08.580 Trump, the

00:56:09.820 Democrats have

00:56:10.700 completely abandoned

00:56:11.720 the question of

00:56:12.640 who do you

00:56:13.300 want to be?

00:56:14.920 Like, do you

00:56:15.500 want to be a

00:56:16.020 person who acts

00:56:16.760 this way and

00:56:17.440 supports those

00:56:18.100 things?

00:56:18.460 And, you

00:56:19.200 know, when

00:56:19.880 you die, you'll

00:56:20.480 say, that's

00:56:20.900 who I was.

00:56:22.180 Or do you

00:56:22.780 want to die

00:56:23.200 saying, I

00:56:23.640 stopped Trump?

00:56:24.800 Because that's

00:56:25.420 not exactly who

00:56:26.240 you are.

00:56:27.120 That's more

00:56:27.540 about him.

00:56:29.000 So, yeah, it

00:56:29.820 does feel like

00:56:30.320 they've lost

00:56:30.760 their soul in

00:56:31.560 the sense that

00:56:32.280 they've lost

00:56:33.560 introspection.

00:56:35.080 There it is.

00:56:36.040 That's what I'm

00:56:36.500 looking for.

00:56:38.240 I'm not one

00:56:39.040 who believes in

00:56:39.800 souls per se,

00:56:41.100 but in terms

00:56:41.960 of poetic

00:56:44.260 language, it's

00:56:45.220 perfect.

00:56:46.600 They've lost

00:56:47.500 introspection,

00:56:49.080 which is very

00:56:51.220 close to what

00:56:52.280 Nicole is saying,

00:56:53.040 that they've

00:56:53.380 lost their

00:56:53.780 soul.

00:56:54.720 They're not

00:56:55.420 really thinking

00:56:56.060 about who they

00:56:56.860 are and who

00:56:57.300 they want to

00:56:57.740 be.

00:56:58.260 They're just

00:56:59.040 thinking that

00:56:59.680 they've got to

00:57:00.100 stop Trump

00:57:00.680 because somebody

00:57:01.260 told them he's

00:57:02.200 the devil.

00:57:05.100 Well, did you

00:57:05.960 know that

00:57:07.420 there's a,

00:57:08.200 let's see,

00:57:10.540 there's a

00:57:10.960 taxpayer-funded

00:57:11.980 AI thing,

00:57:14.320 according to

00:57:15.000 Reclaim the

00:57:15.600 Net, that

00:57:17.080 they use AI

00:57:17.860 to identify

00:57:19.540 misinformation

00:57:20.220 about vaccinations

00:57:22.240 and so that

00:57:24.720 they can

00:57:25.200 inoculate you

00:57:26.720 digitally and

00:57:27.880 information-wise

00:57:28.780 against any

00:57:30.560 wrong think

00:57:31.360 about physical

00:57:33.400 inoculations.

00:57:34.840 That's right.

00:57:35.720 So you

00:57:37.700 are now

00:57:38.180 being

00:57:38.700 inoculated

00:57:39.680 against

00:57:41.440 inoculations,

00:57:43.300 literally.

00:57:44.540 You're being

00:57:45.280 inoculated

00:57:45.980 information-wise

00:57:47.340 by them

00:57:48.240 blocking or

00:57:49.360 essentially

00:57:51.120 blocking

00:57:51.600 sources of

00:57:53.160 information they

00:57:53.840 would consider

00:57:54.520 incorrect.

00:57:55.680 And that

00:57:57.880 is for the

00:57:58.460 purpose of

00:57:59.700 you not

00:58:00.120 being afraid

00:58:01.260 to get a

00:58:01.760 vaccination,

00:58:02.740 which in

00:58:03.800 theory would

00:58:04.340 inoculate you

00:58:05.100 from a disease.

00:58:06.320 So they're

00:58:06.680 actually inoculating

00:58:07.960 you from

00:58:08.660 information to

00:58:09.900 make sure they

00:58:10.940 can inoculate

00:58:11.680 your body.

00:58:12.780 That's a lot

00:58:13.300 of inoculation,

00:58:14.760 maybe too

00:58:15.320 much.

00:58:19.040 Anyway,

00:58:20.160 so I got

00:58:21.220 curious because

00:58:22.040 I was looking

00:58:22.520 at an article

00:58:23.100 in The Hill

00:58:24.080 in which

00:58:25.420 they had

00:58:25.860 this sentence.

00:58:26.640 It wasn't

00:58:26.980 about inoculations,

00:58:28.160 but this is

00:58:28.600 how The Hill

00:58:29.160 describes Kennedy.

00:58:30.880 So see if

00:58:31.480 this rings

00:58:32.200 true to you.

00:58:32.980 Quote,

00:58:33.800 Kennedy,

00:58:34.320 who has

00:58:34.680 long-pedaled

00:58:35.440 debunked

00:58:36.240 anti-vaccine

00:58:37.400 conspiracies.

00:58:40.060 Is that

00:58:40.780 true?

00:58:42.360 Has

00:58:42.920 Kennedy

00:58:43.440 long-pedaled

00:58:44.560 debunked

00:58:45.360 anti-vaccine

00:58:46.560 conspiracies?

00:58:48.160 Well,

00:58:48.840 if you hear

00:58:49.440 him tell it,

00:58:51.140 he'll say,

00:58:52.120 you know,

00:58:52.500 it needs

00:58:52.920 to be studied,

00:58:54.180 there's a

00:58:54.640 correlation

00:58:55.160 between

00:58:55.680 especially

00:58:56.160 autism

00:58:56.740 and some

00:58:57.700 vaccinations

00:58:58.340 needs to

00:58:59.440 be looked

00:58:59.780 into.

00:59:00.480 The vaccines

00:59:01.440 have not

00:59:01.840 been tested

00:59:02.380 sufficiently,

00:59:03.400 so that

00:59:04.120 would be

00:59:04.400 an obvious

00:59:04.820 place you

00:59:05.300 look to

00:59:05.760 for making

00:59:07.140 sure that

00:59:07.700 they're safe.

00:59:09.620 Now,

00:59:10.000 is that a

00:59:10.960 claim that's

00:59:11.940 debunked?

00:59:13.300 Well,

00:59:14.280 I asked

00:59:14.780 ChatGPT

00:59:16.240 to explain

00:59:17.560 who debunked

00:59:18.300 him,

00:59:18.920 because I

00:59:19.800 wasn't sure

00:59:20.220 who did the

00:59:20.780 debunking.

00:59:21.320 That matters,

00:59:21.860 doesn't it?

00:59:22.260 So it

00:59:23.160 turns out

00:59:23.560 there's

00:59:23.860 some big

00:59:24.360 serious

00:59:24.860 entities

00:59:25.380 that have

00:59:25.860 completely

00:59:26.460 debunked

00:59:27.660 the idea

00:59:28.140 that childhood

00:59:28.760 vaccinations

00:59:29.440 would be

00:59:30.080 more dangerous

00:59:30.740 than good.

00:59:31.860 Now,

00:59:32.720 notice how

00:59:33.300 I said

00:59:33.640 that.

00:59:34.740 What I

00:59:35.460 didn't say

00:59:36.080 is that

00:59:37.180 Kennedy says

00:59:37.960 the vaccinations

00:59:38.700 give you

00:59:39.260 autism.

00:59:39.620 I haven't

00:59:41.300 heard him

00:59:41.620 say that,

00:59:42.720 but I

00:59:43.600 think people

00:59:44.020 are suggesting

00:59:44.840 that he's

00:59:45.500 too close

00:59:46.060 to that

00:59:46.440 line.

00:59:47.720 I think

00:59:48.300 he just

00:59:48.580 wants to

00:59:48.920 know more

00:59:49.460 because there's

00:59:50.520 a correlation

00:59:51.140 that's really

00:59:51.760 worrisome,

00:59:52.600 and there is.

00:59:53.740 There's a

00:59:54.360 correlation

00:59:54.820 that seems

00:59:55.460 worrisome.

00:59:56.540 But,

00:59:57.180 did you know

00:59:58.100 it's all been

00:59:58.580 debunked?

00:59:59.680 And here's

01:00:00.040 according to

01:00:00.560 ChatGPT.

01:00:01.880 Who debunked

01:00:02.800 it?

01:00:03.320 First of all,

01:00:04.020 there's the

01:00:04.400 CDC.

01:00:05.980 Oh,

01:00:06.500 okay.

01:00:07.220 Well,

01:00:07.600 we don't

01:00:07.840 really trust

01:00:08.320 the CDC,

01:00:09.060 do we?

01:00:10.080 Are you

01:00:10.660 with me

01:00:11.000 so far?

01:00:13.320 I don't

01:00:13.920 trust the

01:00:14.360 CDC,

01:00:15.000 do you?

01:00:16.240 So,

01:00:16.600 if the

01:00:16.820 CDC says

01:00:17.600 it's

01:00:17.800 debunked,

01:00:18.820 does that

01:00:19.280 have any

01:00:19.920 credibility

01:00:20.640 with you

01:00:21.220 whatsoever?

01:00:23.600 Not with

01:00:24.240 me.

01:00:25.140 But,

01:00:25.660 they're not

01:00:26.040 the only

01:00:26.260 ones.

01:00:26.640 I mean,

01:00:26.780 there's lots

01:00:27.100 more.

01:00:27.620 So,

01:00:27.920 if you

01:00:28.080 want to

01:00:28.260 get more

01:00:28.580 credible

01:00:28.980 than them,

01:00:29.880 it's also

01:00:30.620 debunked by

01:00:31.280 the World

01:00:32.140 Health

01:00:32.440 Organization,

01:00:35.200 the WHO.

01:00:37.520 Wait,

01:00:38.080 what?

01:00:38.740 You don't

01:00:39.280 trust them?

01:00:40.860 Why wouldn't

01:00:41.420 you trust the

01:00:41.960 World Health

01:00:42.360 Organization?

01:00:43.080 What are they?

01:00:43.660 Oh,

01:00:44.160 yeah,

01:00:44.960 yeah.

01:00:45.460 Not really

01:00:46.080 credible,

01:00:46.580 are they?

01:00:48.000 So,

01:00:48.440 you got the

01:00:48.760 CDC you

01:00:49.440 don't trust

01:00:49.920 and the

01:00:50.200 World Health

01:00:50.640 Organization,

01:00:51.260 but they're

01:00:52.060 not the

01:00:52.360 only ones.

01:00:52.820 We also

01:00:53.060 have the

01:00:53.380 National

01:00:53.660 Institute

01:00:54.120 of Health.

01:00:56.560 Who are

01:00:58.000 they?

01:00:59.120 Do you

01:00:59.600 trust them?

01:01:01.440 I don't.

01:01:03.320 No,

01:01:03.500 but keep in

01:01:03.940 mind,

01:01:04.200 I'm not

01:01:04.440 saying any

01:01:04.840 of them

01:01:05.060 are wrong.

01:01:06.720 I'm saying

01:01:07.420 that,

01:01:08.100 do I believe

01:01:09.200 it's true

01:01:09.820 because one

01:01:10.480 of these

01:01:10.800 groups said

01:01:11.400 so?

01:01:12.380 Nope.

01:01:14.400 Nope.

01:01:15.100 We don't

01:01:15.600 live in a

01:01:16.080 world where

01:01:16.620 you can believe

01:01:17.260 it just

01:01:17.600 because one

01:01:18.120 of these

01:01:18.440 groups said

01:01:19.100 it was

01:01:19.320 true.

01:01:20.740 We don't

01:01:21.380 know what

01:01:22.840 tentacles the

01:01:23.860 pharmaceutical

01:01:24.300 companies have

01:01:25.280 with them.

01:01:26.080 We don't

01:01:26.480 know if

01:01:26.780 they're

01:01:26.960 operating in

01:01:27.600 a fear

01:01:28.040 because they

01:01:28.840 don't want

01:01:29.200 to be

01:01:29.540 treated as

01:01:30.380 a conspiracy

01:01:31.540 theorist like

01:01:32.620 RFK Jr.

01:01:34.460 Maybe they

01:01:35.080 just want to

01:01:35.540 collect their

01:01:36.020 royalties,

01:01:36.680 collect their

01:01:37.080 paychecks,

01:01:37.660 and not cause

01:01:38.160 any trouble

01:01:38.640 like everybody

01:01:39.360 else in the

01:01:39.860 world.

01:01:41.240 So,

01:01:42.080 I don't

01:01:42.440 really trust

01:01:43.360 that.

01:01:44.380 But then

01:01:44.760 there's a

01:01:46.120 here's the

01:01:47.400 good news.

01:01:48.540 There are

01:01:48.820 also peer

01:01:49.820 reviewed

01:01:50.220 studies that

01:01:52.120 debunk him.

01:01:53.360 Oh,

01:01:53.700 phew,

01:01:54.660 peer reviewed

01:01:55.260 studies.

01:01:56.940 How often

01:01:57.820 are peer

01:01:58.340 reviewed

01:01:58.680 studies correct

01:02:00.200 and reproducible?

01:02:03.460 Half the

01:02:04.200 time.

01:02:05.320 If it's

01:02:06.080 half the

01:02:06.440 time,

01:02:06.740 it's a

01:02:07.040 coin flip.

01:02:08.120 If it's

01:02:08.680 a coin flip,

01:02:09.560 why do you

01:02:09.980 need a

01:02:10.340 study?

01:02:12.560 You see

01:02:12.880 where I'm

01:02:13.120 going with

01:02:13.480 that?

01:02:14.160 If it's

01:02:14.900 a 50%

01:02:15.600 chance that

01:02:16.280 the study

01:02:16.820 doesn't

01:02:17.420 tell you

01:02:17.740 the truth,

01:02:18.560 it's a

01:02:19.280 coin flip.

01:02:20.280 And if

01:02:20.860 it's a

01:02:21.180 coin flip

01:02:21.700 and you

01:02:22.060 don't know

01:02:22.460 which way

01:02:22.900 it is,

01:02:24.380 the study

01:02:25.820 has no

01:02:26.200 value.

01:02:28.240 Do you

01:02:28.860 see what's

01:02:29.220 missing?

01:02:31.060 A

01:02:31.500 controlled,

01:02:34.180 randomized,

01:02:35.440 placebo

01:02:36.860 study.

01:02:39.160 Where's

01:02:39.680 that?

01:02:40.780 I've been

01:02:41.440 told that

01:02:42.440 you don't

01:02:42.800 really know

01:02:43.540 what the

01:02:43.840 science is

01:02:44.500 unless

01:02:44.860 there are

01:02:45.320 randomized

01:02:46.200 controlled

01:02:47.180 studies.

01:02:48.400 Does that

01:02:49.040 sound like

01:02:49.500 a peer

01:02:50.040 reviewed

01:02:50.360 study?

01:02:51.960 I mean,

01:02:52.220 it could

01:02:52.400 also be

01:02:52.920 peer

01:02:53.160 reviewed.

01:02:54.080 But peer

01:02:54.460 reviewed is

01:02:55.100 the lowest

01:02:55.960 level of

01:02:56.620 credibility

01:02:57.060 in science.

01:02:58.580 It's

01:02:58.880 literally

01:02:59.240 just a

01:02:59.660 coin flip.

01:03:01.340 And if

01:03:01.860 the question

01:03:02.380 is,

01:03:02.720 does

01:03:02.760 something

01:03:03.020 work or

01:03:03.520 not

01:03:03.740 work,

01:03:05.000 hurt you

01:03:05.340 or not

01:03:05.680 hurt you,

01:03:06.680 it's kind

01:03:07.220 of two

01:03:07.660 choices,

01:03:08.480 coin flip.

01:03:09.960 So their

01:03:10.800 best science

01:03:11.500 is a

01:03:11.820 coin flip.

01:03:13.940 Now,

01:03:14.800 of course,

01:03:15.440 real scientists

01:03:16.060 are going

01:03:16.480 to say,

01:03:17.580 that's not

01:03:18.120 true.

01:03:18.580 We have

01:03:18.920 lots of

01:03:19.540 different

01:03:19.800 observational

01:03:20.520 studies.

01:03:21.440 Who funded

01:03:22.240 them?

01:03:23.340 Right?

01:03:25.300 How often

01:03:26.120 do we have

01:03:26.500 a study and

01:03:27.200 they just

01:03:27.580 looked at

01:03:27.960 the data

01:03:28.340 wrong or

01:03:28.780 did the

01:03:29.080 stats wrong?

01:03:29.900 All the

01:03:30.500 time.

01:03:31.700 I don't

01:03:32.340 trust anything

01:03:33.040 about peer

01:03:33.620 reviewed

01:03:33.940 studies.

01:03:34.740 But then

01:03:35.340 they say

01:03:35.700 that there's

01:03:36.120 this one

01:03:36.480 individual who

01:03:37.860 was discredited

01:03:39.040 in his 1998

01:03:40.040 study.

01:03:41.200 So he's

01:03:41.940 a person

01:03:42.260 who came

01:03:42.640 up with

01:03:42.900 this idea

01:03:43.520 that,

01:03:45.820 and then

01:03:47.240 he was

01:03:47.880 thoroughly

01:03:48.360 debunked.

01:03:49.100 It says

01:03:49.360 Wakefield,

01:03:50.380 Andrew

01:03:50.700 Wakefield,

01:03:51.600 lost his

01:03:52.360 medical license

01:03:53.140 due to

01:03:53.680 ethical

01:03:54.040 violations

01:03:54.700 and

01:03:55.380 falsification

01:03:55.960 of data.

01:03:57.120 His claims

01:03:57.720 have been

01:03:58.060 rejected by

01:03:58.760 the scientific

01:03:59.300 community.

01:04:00.480 Okay.

01:04:01.580 That could

01:04:02.320 be totally

01:04:02.840 true.

01:04:04.560 You know

01:04:05.240 what else

01:04:05.560 could be

01:04:05.900 totally

01:04:06.160 true?

01:04:07.360 That if

01:04:08.060 100% of

01:04:08.900 everything he

01:04:09.400 said was

01:04:09.800 true,

01:04:10.360 including

01:04:10.760 his data,

01:04:12.340 that big

01:04:13.080 entities would

01:04:13.840 discredit him

01:04:14.680 until he

01:04:15.260 was completely

01:04:16.900 destroyed.

01:04:18.780 How do I

01:04:19.560 know that?

01:04:20.140 Because I

01:04:20.500 lived through

01:04:20.800 the pandemic.

01:04:22.000 Did we

01:04:22.680 not watch

01:04:23.320 professional

01:04:24.040 doctors be

01:04:24.880 completely

01:04:25.420 destroyed?

01:04:26.940 Because they

01:04:27.700 disagreed with

01:04:28.400 the mainstream

01:04:28.880 media?

01:04:29.200 We did.

01:04:29.940 And were

01:04:30.300 the people

01:04:30.760 who were

01:04:31.160 destroyed,

01:04:32.580 were they

01:04:33.020 wrong in

01:04:33.540 everything they

01:04:34.020 said?

01:04:35.240 Not so

01:04:35.700 much.

01:04:36.600 Not so

01:04:36.980 much.

01:04:37.560 So there

01:04:38.080 doesn't seem

01:04:38.680 to be a

01:04:39.080 correlation when

01:04:40.820 you've got

01:04:41.200 big money

01:04:41.700 involved.

01:04:42.480 It would

01:04:42.740 be different

01:04:43.140 if it was

01:04:43.480 a different

01:04:43.800 topic.

01:04:44.540 But where

01:04:44.860 you've got

01:04:45.140 the big

01:04:45.480 money and

01:04:45.900 the pharma

01:04:46.260 companies

01:04:46.640 involved,

01:04:48.540 being discredited

01:04:49.600 as an

01:04:50.040 expert doesn't

01:04:51.680 have any

01:04:52.400 evidentiary

01:04:53.280 value.

01:04:55.520 Would you

01:04:56.120 agree?

01:04:57.420 In the old

01:04:58.220 days, if you

01:04:58.820 told me that

01:04:59.480 all the big

01:05:00.160 entities discredited

01:05:01.540 an individual,

01:05:02.780 I would have

01:05:03.280 said, oh,

01:05:03.960 that's a

01:05:04.380 discredited

01:05:04.980 individual.

01:05:05.540 But after

01:05:06.760 watching the

01:05:07.360 pandemic and

01:05:08.280 knowing that

01:05:08.760 money distorts

01:05:10.020 everything, I

01:05:11.420 look at it and

01:05:11.960 go, that

01:05:12.240 doesn't actually

01:05:12.760 mean anything.

01:05:15.180 Now, I'm

01:05:15.540 not supporting

01:05:16.420 what he

01:05:16.740 said.

01:05:17.480 I'm saying

01:05:17.980 that whoever

01:05:18.460 debunked him,

01:05:19.420 including saying

01:05:20.120 his data was

01:05:20.780 wrong and all

01:05:21.400 these ethical

01:05:21.940 violations they

01:05:22.820 allege, doesn't

01:05:24.460 really have

01:05:25.480 credibility in

01:05:26.820 today's world.

01:05:27.660 Could be

01:05:28.100 true, but

01:05:29.660 how would I

01:05:30.040 know?

01:05:31.300 So then I

01:05:32.060 said to

01:05:32.360 myself, all

01:05:33.720 right, if

01:05:34.540 there's not

01:05:34.920 a single

01:05:35.420 source that

01:05:36.600 disagrees with

01:05:37.440 Kennedy that

01:05:38.500 I consider

01:05:40.020 credible, then

01:05:42.600 how do you

01:05:42.940 explain what

01:05:43.680 seems to be

01:05:44.280 like a huge

01:05:44.900 increase in

01:05:45.500 autism?

01:05:46.680 How many of

01:05:47.400 you think that

01:05:48.020 there is a

01:05:48.500 big increase

01:05:49.100 in autism?

01:06:12.700 know, everybody

01:06:13.160 knows there's a

01:06:14.160 huge increase in

01:06:14.980 autism.

01:06:15.780 How many would

01:06:16.640 you say that's

01:06:17.660 true?

01:06:18.620 So I asked

01:06:19.320 ChatGPT, and

01:06:20.400 again, you have

01:06:20.920 to be careful

01:06:21.420 because ChatGPT

01:06:22.440 might be

01:06:22.900 hallucinating.

01:06:23.820 It's not

01:06:24.180 reliable.

01:06:26.780 But I'll

01:06:28.520 tell you what

01:06:28.840 he said, and

01:06:29.260 then you can

01:06:29.700 correct me if

01:06:30.300 you see

01:06:30.580 something wrong.

01:06:31.120 So apparently

01:06:32.780 you don't

01:06:33.740 have to

01:06:34.100 think that

01:06:34.520 the

01:06:34.680 vaccinations

01:06:35.240 are causing

01:06:35.940 autism.

01:06:37.060 You don't

01:06:37.660 need to

01:06:37.960 think that

01:06:38.380 because you

01:06:38.860 have so

01:06:39.280 many other

01:06:39.820 explanations

01:06:40.560 that are

01:06:41.820 better

01:06:42.100 explanations

01:06:42.720 of why the

01:06:44.040 autism has

01:06:44.620 gone up.

01:06:45.320 You want to

01:06:45.720 hear the

01:06:45.980 better

01:06:46.220 explanations?

01:06:46.820 according to

01:06:49.300 ChatGPT,

01:06:50.080 number one,

01:06:50.720 increased

01:06:51.160 awareness and

01:06:51.900 improved

01:06:52.200 diagnosis.

01:06:52.920 Oh, so

01:06:54.040 it's not

01:06:54.380 that there

01:06:54.760 are more.

01:06:56.520 It's just

01:06:56.980 that the

01:06:57.360 medical people

01:06:59.440 are spotting

01:07:00.480 it and

01:07:01.340 labeling it.

01:07:02.720 So it's

01:07:03.060 really just

01:07:03.540 an identification

01:07:04.720 problem.

01:07:06.660 Or there's

01:07:07.640 broader

01:07:08.100 diagnostic

01:07:08.760 criteria.

01:07:09.600 Oh, so

01:07:10.600 it's not

01:07:10.920 just that

01:07:11.320 they're spotting

01:07:12.000 more of

01:07:12.440 them, but

01:07:13.580 the category

01:07:14.140 of what you

01:07:14.680 would call

01:07:15.320 an autistic

01:07:16.240 person has

01:07:17.880 been widened,

01:07:18.860 so it's

01:07:19.760 a bigger

01:07:20.020 net.

01:07:21.400 So really

01:07:21.840 it's just

01:07:22.320 a data

01:07:22.960 thing.

01:07:23.320 They're just

01:07:23.600 picking up

01:07:24.020 more of

01:07:24.340 them because

01:07:24.820 of the way

01:07:25.100 they're

01:07:25.280 measuring it.

01:07:27.320 There are

01:07:27.760 changes in

01:07:28.440 healthcare

01:07:28.800 practices,

01:07:30.660 and if

01:07:32.020 more people

01:07:32.560 have access

01:07:33.080 to healthcare,

01:07:34.640 it's more

01:07:35.180 likely they'll

01:07:35.800 be identified

01:07:36.400 as having

01:07:37.240 any problem,

01:07:38.200 including

01:07:38.580 autism.

01:07:39.700 So that's

01:07:40.280 part of it.

01:07:41.100 There's just

01:07:41.460 better healthcare.

01:07:43.300 So we're

01:07:43.640 spotting it.

01:07:44.100 Increased

01:07:46.680 recognition

01:07:47.220 of autism

01:07:47.820 in different

01:07:48.300 populations.

01:07:49.920 Okay?

01:07:50.380 So we

01:07:51.220 didn't

01:07:51.500 recognize it

01:07:52.200 as easily

01:07:52.700 in girls.

01:07:53.940 It was

01:07:54.220 more obvious

01:07:54.740 in boys.

01:07:55.900 But now

01:07:56.640 that we

01:07:56.940 know what

01:07:57.260 to look

01:07:57.540 for in

01:07:57.900 girls,

01:07:58.380 we go,

01:07:58.800 oh, wow.

01:07:59.760 It was

01:08:00.180 probably

01:08:00.440 always there.

01:08:01.280 We just

01:08:01.580 didn't notice

01:08:02.080 it before.

01:08:03.900 How about

01:08:04.580 genetic

01:08:04.920 factors?

01:08:06.680 Well,

01:08:07.280 research

01:08:08.560 indicates,

01:08:09.280 according to

01:08:09.660 ChadGBT,

01:08:10.380 that genes

01:08:11.680 play a

01:08:12.200 role,

01:08:13.640 but do

01:08:14.460 not alone

01:08:14.960 account for

01:08:15.500 the increase

01:08:16.040 in cases.

01:08:18.020 So it

01:08:19.860 plays a

01:08:20.300 role,

01:08:21.000 but it

01:08:22.260 doesn't tell

01:08:23.020 the whole

01:08:23.340 story.

01:08:24.180 What's

01:08:24.520 missing?

01:08:25.860 What

01:08:26.380 percentage of

01:08:26.960 the story

01:08:27.300 does it

01:08:27.740 tell?

01:08:28.900 Does it

01:08:29.560 tell 80%

01:08:30.260 of the

01:08:30.560 story,

01:08:31.000 or 20%

01:08:32.280 of the

01:08:32.540 story,

01:08:33.380 or 1%

01:08:34.040 of the

01:08:34.320 story?

01:08:36.020 If you

01:08:36.700 don't know

01:08:37.080 how much

01:08:37.440 the genetic

01:08:38.060 part is,

01:08:38.700 you're

01:08:40.580 kind of

01:08:40.880 flying blind

01:08:41.560 here,

01:08:41.860 aren't you?

01:08:43.220 I used

01:08:43.940 to believe,

01:08:44.800 and by the

01:08:45.140 way,

01:08:45.340 this is

01:08:45.620 still my

01:08:46.080 operating

01:08:46.540 hypothesis,

01:08:47.720 there's

01:08:47.960 some amount

01:08:48.540 of the

01:08:49.260 autism,

01:08:50.500 and specifically

01:08:51.360 Asperger's

01:08:52.380 also.

01:08:54.640 I don't

01:08:54.920 know if you

01:08:55.220 want to

01:08:55.440 count that

01:08:55.880 as just

01:08:56.400 part of

01:08:56.660 the same

01:08:56.920 story,

01:08:57.840 but I

01:08:59.280 think that

01:08:59.600 has to

01:08:59.840 do with

01:09:00.080 people who

01:09:00.640 have a

01:09:01.100 propensity

01:09:01.620 to easily

01:09:02.420 finding each

01:09:03.140 other.

01:09:03.960 Meaning,

01:09:04.460 if two

01:09:04.800 engineers,

01:09:06.260 who aren't

01:09:06.740 quite

01:09:07.140 Asperger's,

01:09:07.960 but they're

01:09:08.220 both,

01:09:08.700 one toe

01:09:09.640 over the

01:09:10.020 line,

01:09:10.820 if they

01:09:11.140 have a

01:09:11.380 kid,

01:09:11.700 the odds

01:09:12.200 of the

01:09:12.440 kid getting

01:09:13.640 it from

01:09:13.920 both sides

01:09:14.620 are better.

01:09:16.620 And we

01:09:17.100 have a

01:09:17.380 world where

01:09:17.820 you can

01:09:18.080 find somebody

01:09:18.660 living on

01:09:19.100 the other

01:09:19.360 side of

01:09:19.640 the country

01:09:20.000 who's also

01:09:20.840 a computer

01:09:22.120 programmer like

01:09:22.880 you,

01:09:23.280 and you have

01:09:23.600 lots in

01:09:23.960 common,

01:09:24.500 so you get

01:09:24.820 married.

01:09:25.300 In the

01:09:25.540 old days,

01:09:25.880 you just

01:09:26.120 married whoever

01:09:26.640 was nearby,

01:09:28.260 so you had

01:09:28.980 much more

01:09:29.480 random mixing

01:09:30.760 of genes.

01:09:32.180 But now

01:09:32.700 the people

01:09:33.400 who are

01:09:33.880 right on

01:09:34.740 the border

01:09:35.240 of being on

01:09:37.860 the spectrum

01:09:38.340 let's say,

01:09:39.600 are more

01:09:40.400 easily finding

01:09:41.120 each other

01:09:41.620 and finding

01:09:42.340 things in

01:09:42.880 common.

01:09:43.780 So I don't

01:09:44.280 know how big

01:09:44.640 the genetic

01:09:45.080 factor is.

01:09:45.760 And then they

01:09:46.040 say environmental

01:09:46.600 factors,

01:09:47.500 less well

01:09:47.940 understood,

01:09:49.440 prenatal

01:09:50.360 exposure to

01:09:51.160 substances,

01:09:51.660 could be just

01:09:52.480 a pollution

01:09:52.940 problem in

01:09:53.500 the environment.

01:09:53.960 different.

01:09:56.520 And

01:09:57.000 basically the

01:10:01.640 bottom line

01:10:02.120 from chat

01:10:02.580 GPT is

01:10:03.580 that we

01:10:03.880 can't even

01:10:04.380 be sure

01:10:04.820 there's more

01:10:05.320 autism

01:10:05.760 because we're

01:10:08.700 just diagnosing

01:10:09.460 it.

01:10:10.060 All right,

01:10:10.420 now,

01:10:11.460 I have a,

01:10:12.380 one of my

01:10:13.280 BS filters

01:10:14.140 is when

01:10:15.860 observation

01:10:16.620 does not

01:10:17.360 match

01:10:17.660 science.

01:10:19.200 So let's

01:10:19.880 say the

01:10:20.220 science is

01:10:20.800 saying there's

01:10:21.800 no more

01:10:22.400 autism than

01:10:23.180 there ever

01:10:23.580 was.

01:10:24.380 Does that

01:10:25.040 match your

01:10:25.440 observation?

01:10:27.400 You live

01:10:28.100 in the

01:10:28.320 world.

01:10:29.280 Are you

01:10:29.980 observing that

01:10:30.740 there's more

01:10:31.280 autism or

01:10:33.040 are you not?

01:10:35.200 I'm observing

01:10:36.100 that there's

01:10:36.600 more.

01:10:38.440 It seems

01:10:39.160 like it comes

01:10:39.720 up all the

01:10:40.220 time now,

01:10:42.060 especially,

01:10:43.040 you know,

01:10:43.420 if you're on

01:10:44.360 the spectrum,

01:10:44.960 I'd say it

01:10:45.380 comes up way

01:10:45.960 more.

01:10:46.820 So to me,

01:10:49.380 the science

01:10:50.120 here is not

01:10:51.000 quite matching.

01:10:52.400 So now

01:10:53.500 that you've

01:10:53.800 seen the

01:10:54.140 whole thing,

01:10:56.320 so the

01:10:56.640 whole story

01:10:57.200 is that

01:10:57.640 there are

01:10:58.240 entities,

01:10:58.940 none of

01:10:59.380 which I

01:10:59.740 consider

01:11:00.120 credible,

01:11:01.000 doesn't

01:11:01.360 mean they're

01:11:01.680 wrong,

01:11:02.760 I just

01:11:03.140 don't accept

01:11:03.900 them on

01:11:04.500 their word,

01:11:05.640 are the

01:11:05.960 ones who

01:11:06.340 say that

01:11:07.000 RFK Jr.

01:11:08.140 is wrong

01:11:08.500 about

01:11:08.740 vaccinations

01:11:09.340 and at

01:11:10.420 least the

01:11:10.760 autism

01:11:11.120 part.

01:11:12.720 But on

01:11:13.540 top of

01:11:13.860 the autism

01:11:14.300 part,

01:11:14.780 he has

01:11:15.260 other

01:11:15.500 claims

01:11:16.040 about

01:11:18.220 chronic

01:11:18.760 illness.

01:11:19.900 Now that

01:11:20.560 could be

01:11:20.960 mostly diet.

01:11:22.400 the chronic

01:11:22.840 illness,

01:11:23.920 but you

01:11:24.460 certainly

01:11:24.900 have to

01:11:25.360 look at

01:11:25.680 the vaccines

01:11:26.380 too,

01:11:27.360 just to

01:11:27.840 make sure

01:11:28.200 you've

01:11:28.460 checked

01:11:28.680 everything.

01:11:29.800 So I

01:11:30.240 have no

01:11:30.560 specific

01:11:31.040 information

01:11:31.580 that would

01:11:32.000 suggest

01:11:32.440 vaccines

01:11:33.200 are

01:11:33.400 dangerous.

01:11:34.600 I'm just

01:11:35.240 saying that

01:11:35.700 if you look

01:11:36.180 at the

01:11:36.440 world of

01:11:37.100 how we

01:11:37.460 know

01:11:37.660 things,

01:11:39.080 there are

01:11:40.800 some really

01:11:41.540 big questions

01:11:43.220 to be answered

01:11:44.060 in the how

01:11:44.620 we know

01:11:44.960 things about

01:11:45.520 vaccines and

01:11:47.200 whatever impact

01:11:48.080 they might be

01:11:48.580 having.

01:11:48.840 So don't

01:11:50.740 trust

01:11:51.040 anything.

01:11:53.520 According to

01:11:54.520 Just the

01:11:55.000 News, the

01:11:56.320 news site

01:11:56.940 Just the

01:11:57.380 News, the

01:12:00.220 Department of

01:12:01.000 Defense is

01:12:01.540 withholding

01:12:02.060 documents on

01:12:03.140 the question

01:12:03.580 of whether

01:12:03.920 DEI hiring

01:12:05.080 improves

01:12:06.160 national

01:12:06.600 security.

01:12:08.060 Hmm.

01:12:08.780 I wonder

01:12:09.480 if DEI

01:12:10.720 improves or

01:12:12.900 decreases

01:12:13.640 national

01:12:14.280 security.

01:12:15.020 how could

01:12:16.460 we possibly

01:12:17.200 fund the

01:12:18.080 study to

01:12:18.660 find that

01:12:19.240 out?

01:12:20.100 Oh, you

01:12:21.320 could just

01:12:21.640 ask me.

01:12:23.100 No, it's

01:12:23.740 no good.

01:12:26.240 Again, for

01:12:27.560 anybody who's

01:12:28.100 new, when I

01:12:29.620 criticize DEI

01:12:30.760 as a system,

01:12:31.640 it has nothing

01:12:32.100 to do with

01:12:32.580 any groups,

01:12:33.780 genes, or

01:12:34.440 capabilities,

01:12:35.900 it has nothing

01:12:36.300 to do with

01:12:36.740 culture.

01:12:37.680 It's just a

01:12:38.400 system that

01:12:39.780 on paper

01:12:40.380 can't possibly

01:12:41.860 be good

01:12:42.400 because it

01:12:43.500 requires an

01:12:44.760 artificial

01:12:45.300 shortage of

01:12:47.160 enough diversity

01:12:47.960 because everybody's

01:12:48.720 going to look

01:12:49.060 for it at the

01:12:49.580 same time.

01:12:50.280 If everybody's

01:12:51.200 looking for the

01:12:51.680 same diversity

01:12:52.280 and there's not

01:12:52.920 enough people in

01:12:53.480 the pipeline,

01:12:54.220 they will not

01:12:55.240 sit with

01:12:56.260 empty jobs.

01:12:58.460 They will just

01:12:59.600 keep going down

01:13:00.440 the capability

01:13:01.160 list until they

01:13:02.100 can hit the

01:13:02.540 diversity target.

01:13:03.760 It guarantees

01:13:04.860 that you're hiring

01:13:05.420 less qualified

01:13:06.180 people.

01:13:06.820 Again, not

01:13:08.100 because of their

01:13:08.680 genders or their

01:13:09.460 genes or their

01:13:10.140 culture.

01:13:10.940 It's just a

01:13:11.960 system problem.

01:13:13.740 They're just not

01:13:14.380 enough of the

01:13:14.860 people you want

01:13:15.380 to hire, so

01:13:16.480 you lower your

01:13:16.960 standards.

01:13:18.120 Now, you might

01:13:18.820 say to me,

01:13:19.400 Scott, in the

01:13:21.040 real world, nobody's

01:13:22.120 going to lower

01:13:22.740 their standards to

01:13:23.740 the point where it

01:13:24.380 would make the

01:13:24.820 country unsafe, to

01:13:26.360 which I say, have

01:13:27.280 you ever lived in

01:13:28.200 the real world?

01:13:29.360 No, in the real

01:13:30.240 world, it happens

01:13:30.940 every time.

01:13:32.280 Every time.

01:13:33.400 Every fucking

01:13:34.220 time in the

01:13:35.400 real world.

01:13:36.480 So if you haven't

01:13:37.180 lived any minutes

01:13:38.240 in the real world,

01:13:39.220 you think, oh, the

01:13:40.100 managers will

01:13:40.900 obviously just try

01:13:42.620 harder until they

01:13:43.580 can get diversity

01:13:44.400 and the highest

01:13:45.900 qualifications you

01:13:47.000 could ever get,

01:13:47.620 because why

01:13:47.940 wouldn't they?

01:13:48.880 Yeah, that works

01:13:49.440 great if you're

01:13:50.020 Apple or

01:13:51.600 Microsoft, and

01:13:53.560 people are fighting

01:13:54.660 to work there.

01:13:55.320 You can get the

01:13:55.900 best of everything,

01:13:56.900 including diversity.

01:13:58.200 What about the

01:13:58.800 rest of everybody

01:13:59.520 else?

01:14:00.200 What about the

01:14:00.720 government?

01:14:01.780 Do you think the

01:14:02.300 government is getting

01:14:03.120 the best of the

01:14:05.260 diverse candidates?

01:14:06.840 Or do you think

01:14:08.340 if you are

01:14:08.800 diverse, you

01:14:10.220 are part of

01:14:10.600 the diversity

01:14:11.680 world, and you

01:14:13.940 are qualified for

01:14:15.180 any job, wouldn't

01:14:17.200 you go to Apple?

01:14:18.600 Why would you work

01:14:19.540 in the government

01:14:20.040 at all?

01:14:21.160 Why wouldn't you

01:14:21.640 go for the big

01:14:22.180 money and the

01:14:22.920 cushy job and the

01:14:23.980 better respect?

01:14:26.080 So the government

01:14:27.880 in particular should

01:14:30.140 be the place where

01:14:31.180 there's the most

01:14:31.860 emphasis on DEI and

01:14:34.480 the fewest number

01:14:35.580 of applicants who

01:14:36.680 are diverse who

01:14:38.460 would be willing to

01:14:39.140 work for the

01:14:39.560 government when they

01:14:40.380 could just go get

01:14:41.020 twice the pay

01:14:42.340 somewhere else.

01:14:44.000 On paper, it

01:14:46.140 should guarantee

01:14:46.920 that we're less

01:14:47.600 safe.

01:14:49.640 That's the design.

01:14:52.000 If you just look

01:14:53.060 at the design and

01:14:54.660 you say, where is

01:14:55.440 this going to lead

01:14:55.960 us?

01:14:56.220 It's easy.

01:14:57.880 Now, like I said,

01:14:58.940 if it's Apple

01:14:59.600 computer, it might

01:15:00.940 look different because

01:15:02.500 in the limited pool of

01:15:04.980 diverse candidates who

01:15:06.260 have the right

01:15:06.820 technical skills,

01:15:09.040 maybe Apple can get

01:15:10.060 most of them because

01:15:11.440 it's such a cool

01:15:12.060 place to work.

01:15:13.260 So there might be

01:15:13.960 big companies and

01:15:15.020 maybe even Mark

01:15:16.080 Cuban.

01:15:17.280 He's big on DEI.

01:15:19.120 Maybe Mark Cuban

01:15:20.000 because he's a

01:15:21.060 celebrity and he's

01:15:22.620 got resources, et

01:15:23.640 cetera.

01:15:24.520 Maybe he can just

01:15:25.960 try harder and get a

01:15:27.120 fully diverse workforce

01:15:28.220 without giving up a

01:15:29.300 single thing.

01:15:30.880 But not everybody

01:15:31.940 else can do that.

01:15:33.100 And certainly the

01:15:33.720 government can't.

01:15:34.540 The government's

01:15:35.560 going to go for

01:15:36.020 diversity real fast

01:15:38.480 and they're going

01:15:39.540 to worry about

01:15:40.120 meritocracy last.

01:15:43.080 That's your

01:15:43.680 government.

01:15:45.340 How's the

01:15:45.900 government doing?

01:15:46.640 Well, since

01:15:48.180 2021, our border

01:15:50.620 control and our

01:15:51.680 border patrol agents

01:15:52.660 have apprehended

01:15:54.100 1,746 known or

01:15:57.160 suspected terrorists

01:15:58.400 at the border.

01:16:00.460 1,746 known or

01:16:05.080 suspected terrorists.

01:16:08.380 What?

01:16:09.880 But here's the

01:16:11.540 kill shot.

01:16:13.280 The majority of

01:16:14.520 them, 1,089, came

01:16:16.160 across the Canadian

01:16:17.080 border and they

01:16:19.580 were caught at

01:16:20.140 points of entry.

01:16:21.880 So these are just

01:16:23.120 the ones who

01:16:24.900 thought it was

01:16:25.500 worth taking a

01:16:26.180 chance to go

01:16:26.760 across the border

01:16:27.500 at a port of

01:16:28.400 entry when I'm

01:16:30.380 pretty sure that

01:16:31.540 people can get

01:16:32.220 across the Canadian

01:16:33.060 border to the

01:16:33.640 United States

01:16:34.320 without a port of

01:16:35.320 entry.

01:16:36.300 I mean, I don't

01:16:36.780 know the details,

01:16:37.620 but I'm pretty sure

01:16:38.520 there's a way to do

01:16:39.260 that.

01:16:41.560 So when you say

01:16:43.140 known or suspected

01:16:44.200 terrorists, I would

01:16:46.880 like to know the

01:16:47.500 ratio of known to

01:16:48.680 suspected.

01:16:50.220 Wouldn't you?

01:16:51.660 What exactly makes

01:16:52.760 you a suspected

01:16:53.600 terrorist?

01:16:54.820 My assumption is

01:16:56.280 if you are a

01:16:57.200 young male who

01:16:58.440 doesn't have a lot

01:16:59.120 of records and

01:17:00.280 you come from a

01:17:01.000 country that isn't

01:17:02.540 friendly to the

01:17:03.240 United States and

01:17:04.500 maybe you're part of

01:17:05.500 a culture that

01:17:07.400 isn't, at least in

01:17:08.820 that part of the

01:17:09.240 country or that

01:17:10.380 part of the world,

01:17:11.280 does that make you

01:17:12.560 a suspected

01:17:13.440 terrorist?

01:17:14.120 Even if you've

01:17:14.720 done nothing,

01:17:15.900 you've done nothing

01:17:17.040 in that domain,

01:17:18.560 are you still a

01:17:19.280 suspected terrorist?

01:17:20.900 Do they check

01:17:21.860 your social media

01:17:22.660 to see if you've

01:17:23.420 said suspected

01:17:24.480 terrorist things?

01:17:26.400 So the first

01:17:27.320 question I'd ask

01:17:28.160 is how many of

01:17:30.540 them are known

01:17:31.260 terrorists?

01:17:33.700 Because they're

01:17:34.400 the ones I'm

01:17:34.820 worried about.

01:17:35.880 I'm way less

01:17:37.360 bothered by

01:17:38.500 suspected,

01:17:41.000 but obviously

01:17:43.040 you have to worry

01:17:43.600 about them too.

01:17:45.880 So we're letting

01:17:47.560 in terrorists by

01:17:48.480 the gazillions.

01:17:49.200 the debt is

01:17:51.380 unpayable.

01:17:52.940 But for now,

01:17:55.260 life goes on

01:17:57.500 today anyway.

01:17:58.840 Just wait for

01:17:59.460 your flying baby

01:18:00.700 robots to come

01:18:02.280 rescue you.

01:18:03.880 Now, I've had

01:18:05.060 this feeling today

01:18:06.160 that something big

01:18:08.740 is about to happen

01:18:09.720 because it's way

01:18:11.560 too quiet.

01:18:13.580 even though there's

01:18:15.380 lots of

01:18:15.880 chat,

01:18:16.800 chat,

01:18:17.040 chat on

01:18:17.520 politics,

01:18:18.340 none of it's

01:18:18.860 really important.

01:18:20.640 Like, I was

01:18:21.240 looking at all

01:18:21.640 the news stories

01:18:22.280 today and I

01:18:22.820 thought,

01:18:23.760 yeah, J.D.

01:18:24.720 Vance said

01:18:25.520 some things.

01:18:26.320 I don't care.

01:18:27.500 Yeah, somebody

01:18:28.340 brought a camera

01:18:29.120 to Arlington.

01:18:31.520 not to disrespect

01:18:34.200 anybody,

01:18:35.360 literally for the

01:18:36.400 purpose of

01:18:36.880 respecting them.

01:18:37.640 I don't care.

01:18:40.540 There's a new

01:18:41.860 Democrat who's

01:18:43.460 going to endorse

01:18:44.980 Trump that I

01:18:46.200 never heard of.

01:18:47.120 I don't care.

01:18:48.340 There's a bunch

01:18:48.880 of staffers for

01:18:50.320 ex-GOP,

01:18:52.020 never Trumpers,

01:18:53.460 200 of them

01:18:54.300 who are now

01:18:54.840 pro-Harris.

01:18:55.800 I never heard

01:18:56.420 of them.

01:18:57.160 I don't care.

01:18:57.860 So there's

01:19:00.100 way too much

01:19:01.020 news that

01:19:02.120 doesn't even

01:19:03.580 look like news.

01:19:06.080 Something's

01:19:06.620 about to happen.

01:19:09.080 California's

01:19:09.760 going to ban

01:19:10.260 voter idea

01:19:10.960 for local

01:19:11.500 elections.

01:19:12.360 I think we

01:19:13.420 knew that

01:19:13.760 was going to

01:19:14.100 happen.

01:19:16.020 I don't know.

01:19:17.760 Does anybody

01:19:18.320 else feel it?

01:19:20.100 Because my

01:19:21.000 feeling is that

01:19:21.680 news is

01:19:22.260 generally fake

01:19:23.300 and when it

01:19:24.740 gets quiet

01:19:25.420 it's because

01:19:26.580 the people

01:19:27.400 who make

01:19:27.820 fake news

01:19:28.560 are ready

01:19:29.000 to land

01:19:29.720 a big one

01:19:30.160 and they

01:19:30.920 don't want

01:19:31.240 a bunch

01:19:31.560 of competing

01:19:32.220 almost as

01:19:33.980 big stories

01:19:34.640 that are

01:19:34.940 bubbling at

01:19:35.420 the same

01:19:35.740 time.

01:19:36.700 So as

01:19:36.980 soon as I

01:19:37.440 see the

01:19:37.800 bubble rate

01:19:38.320 go down

01:19:38.880 and stay

01:19:39.660 there for

01:19:40.040 a day,

01:19:40.780 I say,

01:19:41.740 oh,

01:19:42.420 I got

01:19:42.740 something

01:19:42.960 coming.

01:19:43.880 I don't

01:19:44.200 know that

01:19:44.580 there's any

01:19:46.500 way to detect

01:19:47.320 it that way.

01:19:47.820 It just

01:19:48.080 feels that

01:19:48.560 way.

01:19:49.220 So it's

01:19:49.440 just a

01:19:49.700 feeling.

01:19:55.240 Scott

01:19:55.640 doesn't do

01:19:56.100 a real

01:19:56.480 job.

01:19:56.920 Why would

01:19:57.380 he retire?

01:19:58.020 Well,

01:19:58.180 that's what

01:19:58.420 I'm saying.

01:19:59.280 You're not

01:19:59.820 disagreeing with

01:20:00.480 me.

01:20:01.080 I'm saying

01:20:01.520 that as

01:20:01.800 long as I

01:20:02.280 can do

01:20:02.740 the job

01:20:03.220 and that

01:20:04.540 I don't

01:20:04.840 mind doing

01:20:05.280 the job,

01:20:06.080 it would

01:20:06.700 seem unethical

01:20:07.560 to stop

01:20:08.120 because I'm

01:20:08.900 contributing to

01:20:10.140 the system

01:20:10.640 in some way

01:20:11.180 that feels

01:20:11.680 meaningful to

01:20:12.300 me.

01:20:15.600 Tomorrow

01:20:16.000 would be

01:20:16.320 the day

01:20:16.660 to drop

01:20:17.100 it.

01:20:17.300 If there's

01:20:17.540 something big,

01:20:18.180 you think it'd

01:20:18.540 be a Friday

01:20:19.020 thing?

01:20:20.020 Depends

01:20:20.300 how big

01:20:20.680 it is.

01:20:21.080 So some

01:20:27.020 of you

01:20:27.200 think that

01:20:27.820 there's a

01:20:28.580 rumor that

01:20:29.100 Biden will

01:20:29.620 step down

01:20:30.480 so that

01:20:32.500 Kamala can

01:20:33.120 run as

01:20:33.720 an incumbent.

01:20:35.400 Here,

01:20:35.640 let me give

01:20:36.040 you the

01:20:36.320 argument against

01:20:37.160 it.

01:20:38.080 You ready?

01:20:39.880 The argument

01:20:40.660 against it

01:20:41.400 is if

01:20:42.100 Kamala had

01:20:43.160 to take

01:20:43.720 over the

01:20:44.100 reins,

01:20:45.100 I don't

01:20:46.080 know how

01:20:46.440 she could

01:20:46.800 handle that

01:20:47.460 transition at

01:20:48.400 the same time

01:20:49.000 as running

01:20:49.380 for office.

01:20:50.840 I think

01:20:51.440 that would

01:20:51.820 overwhelm

01:20:52.440 her,

01:20:53.240 or anybody

01:20:53.800 really.

01:20:54.840 So the

01:20:55.400 only way

01:20:55.800 she could

01:20:56.100 take over

01:20:56.520 the presidency

01:20:57.200 because there's

01:20:58.060 also the

01:20:58.700 turnover of

01:21:00.780 you've got to

01:21:01.220 pick a staff.

01:21:02.620 I don't think

01:21:03.500 you just

01:21:03.840 automatically

01:21:04.340 take your

01:21:04.920 vice president

01:21:05.500 staff.

01:21:06.940 So to me,

01:21:07.520 it seems like

01:21:08.060 they would be

01:21:08.620 putting too

01:21:09.240 much on her

01:21:10.040 60 days

01:21:11.980 before the

01:21:12.440 election.

01:21:13.920 I wouldn't

01:21:14.880 be surprised

01:21:15.700 if Biden

01:21:17.620 steps down

01:21:18.980 if she

01:21:19.620 wins after

01:21:21.620 the election

01:21:22.160 because even

01:21:24.540 I would

01:21:24.980 say there's

01:21:25.500 not like

01:21:26.080 a, well,

01:21:27.000 let me put

01:21:28.260 the question

01:21:28.700 to you.

01:21:29.540 If you

01:21:30.040 know Biden

01:21:30.560 is toast,

01:21:32.060 and let's

01:21:32.420 say hypothetically

01:21:33.340 Kamala Harris

01:21:34.560 won in a

01:21:35.800 way that you

01:21:36.280 thought was

01:21:36.980 legitimate

01:21:37.760 enough,

01:21:39.520 wouldn't you

01:21:39.920 be just as

01:21:40.500 happy if she

01:21:41.320 took over

01:21:41.800 immediately

01:21:42.240 instead of

01:21:42.780 waiting until

01:21:43.280 January?

01:21:45.420 I wouldn't

01:21:46.100 have any

01:21:46.460 reason to

01:21:46.960 make her

01:21:47.240 wait.

01:21:47.540 I'd say

01:21:48.640 let's just

01:21:49.580 get in

01:21:49.980 there.

01:21:50.700 You might

01:21:50.940 as well

01:21:51.100 just take

01:21:51.540 over.

01:21:52.080 I'd rather

01:21:52.520 have a

01:21:52.840 human in

01:21:53.360 the job.

01:21:54.900 So I

01:21:55.280 think they'd

01:21:55.640 wait until

01:21:55.940 after the

01:21:56.300 election.

01:21:58.700 That's what

01:21:59.260 I think.

01:22:00.000 And if

01:22:00.520 they were

01:22:00.780 going to

01:22:01.040 do something

01:22:01.480 before that,

01:22:03.360 I think

01:22:04.760 they would

01:22:05.040 be signaling

01:22:05.680 it harder

01:22:06.360 so it

01:22:07.520 wasn't a

01:22:08.020 surprise.

01:22:10.380 So I'm

01:22:11.060 going to

01:22:11.260 guess that

01:22:12.060 Biden stays

01:22:12.760 in office

01:22:13.160 through the

01:22:13.600 election,

01:22:13.960 but if

01:22:15.200 Harris

01:22:15.820 wins,

01:22:17.480 he would

01:22:18.160 reasonably

01:22:18.840 soon step

01:22:19.720 down,

01:22:20.320 spend

01:22:20.540 Christmas

01:22:21.000 with his

01:22:21.440 family,

01:22:22.440 and just

01:22:22.900 be out of

01:22:23.340 all the

01:22:23.620 January

01:22:24.020 nonsense.

01:22:25.440 And that

01:22:25.720 would make

01:22:26.040 sense for

01:22:26.900 an elderly

01:22:27.340 man who's

01:22:27.940 got some

01:22:28.300 issues.

01:22:29.000 That would

01:22:29.240 be the

01:22:29.480 best way

01:22:29.840 to treat

01:22:30.140 him,

01:22:30.320 I think.

01:22:31.380 All right,

01:22:31.660 that's all

01:22:31.960 I got for

01:22:32.340 you today.

01:22:34.020 I'm going

01:22:34.420 to go do

01:22:34.720 some other

01:22:35.100 things.

01:22:35.960 Go enjoy

01:22:36.540 your day.

01:22:37.040 It's going

01:22:37.300 to be

01:22:37.460 amazing.

01:22:39.040 And I'll

01:22:39.680 see you all

01:22:40.180 later.

01:22:40.780 I'm going

01:22:42.300 to say

01:22:42.460 goodbye to

01:22:42.940 everybody in

01:22:43.400 the Rumble

01:22:43.780 studio.

01:22:45.080 I've got a

01:22:45.520 separate device

01:22:46.120 running the

01:22:46.620 locals'

01:22:47.100 peoples, so

01:22:47.780 they're going

01:22:48.020 to stay

01:22:48.260 with me.

01:22:49.200 And I'll

01:22:49.660 see you all

01:22:50.160 tomorrow.

01:22:50.660 Thanks for

01:22:51.000 joining.
