00:00:00.000 Best time you've ever had in your life.
00:00:02.140 But if you'd like to take it up two levels that nobody can even understand
00:00:05.880 with their tiny, shiny human brains,
00:00:08.960 all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass,
00:00:11.240 a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or flask,
00:00:14.600 a vessel of any kind.
00:00:16.100 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:00:18.580 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day,
00:00:21.580 the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:23.440 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now. Go.
00:00:30.000 Now, if you haven't tried the simultaneous sip,
00:00:35.400 it is a replacement for human touch.
00:00:37.820 It will get your oxytocin going.
00:00:40.260 That's part of the magic, because you can feel the connection.
00:00:44.160 Now, it's not as good as hugging somebody cute,
00:00:46.820 but it was better than nothing.
00:00:52.220 Speaking of better than nothing,
00:00:54.560 wouldn't you like the 2025 Dilbert calendar,
00:00:57.960 which is now available for sale?
00:01:00.240 Made 100% in America for the first time.
00:01:03.480 You might hear this from me a few more times,
00:01:05.800 because, you know, it's a long time till Christmas,
00:01:08.480 if you know what I mean.
00:01:09.500 But if you want the link,
00:01:10.800 the one and only place you can buy it
00:01:12.540 is go to Dilbert.com,
00:01:14.940 and you'll find the link to it.
00:01:16.280 It's right at the top.
00:01:18.420 It is not available on Amazon,
00:01:20.340 because there was no affordable way to do that,
00:01:23.140 and also make it in America.
00:01:25.180 They take a lot of it, it turns out.
00:01:26.940 So, and this time it's a double calendar.
00:01:31.420 There's a comic on the front and the back,
00:01:34.100 so you can see the secretive,
00:01:37.000 only available by subscription normally,
00:01:41.520 Dilbert Reborn comics.
00:01:42.820 Those are the edgy ones.
00:01:44.160 All right.
00:01:45.660 Let's talk about some science.
00:01:47.500 There's a report that there's a gravity-defying
00:01:51.580 scientific breakthrough.
00:01:54.200 There's a plasma physicist,
00:01:56.120 Dr. John Brandenburg,
00:01:57.840 who says they have successfully,
00:01:59.300 in the laboratory,
00:02:00.980 demonstrated gravity modification
00:02:02.920 using electromagnetic fields,
00:02:05.940 to which I say,
00:02:07.760 nah.
00:02:08.160 Do you ever read a science,
00:02:11.560 a story about science,
00:02:12.840 and you just look at it and go,
00:02:14.620 I don't know what's true,
00:02:15.880 but nah.
00:02:18.000 No, I don't think that they found a technology
00:02:20.320 that's anti-gravity.
00:02:22.040 Now, what they might have found
00:02:23.420 is if you use a tremendous amount of electricity,
00:02:26.760 you can do something that makes something
00:02:29.320 look like anti-gravity,
00:02:31.060 but it has no use whatsoever,
00:02:32.480 because it takes a lot of energy.
00:02:33.920 It's going to be one of those,
00:02:35.060 well, did I say anti-gravity?
00:02:39.500 What I meant was,
00:02:41.200 in the laboratory,
00:02:43.200 you can do a thing
00:02:44.180 that you could never use in the real world.
00:02:46.920 So, I'm not making any claims
00:02:49.780 based on any knowledge whatsoever.
00:02:52.060 It'd be awesome
00:02:52.760 if they'd actually figured out
00:02:54.000 how to solve gravity.
00:02:57.960 But I'm going to say
00:02:59.400 that if I were forced to make a bet,
00:03:02.960 somebody put a gun to the head,
00:03:04.260 and said,
00:03:05.120 you have to bet.
00:03:06.440 You have to bet
00:03:07.320 whether this is going to be
00:03:08.440 an anti-gravity device
00:03:09.760 that makes everything easier,
00:03:12.400 or it's interesting in the lab,
00:03:15.520 but can't really be used
00:03:16.840 in the real world
00:03:17.680 in any practical way,
00:03:19.080 I think I'd bet
00:03:19.740 that it would not be useful
00:03:20.940 in the real world.
00:03:22.940 Don't get too excited
00:03:24.100 about your anti-gravity device coming.
00:03:26.620 Did you know,
00:03:28.680 according to a side post,
00:03:31.300 that spending time in nature
00:03:32.560 could increase
00:03:33.240 how much we see others
00:03:35.140 as fully human?
00:03:37.500 Well, that's interesting.
00:03:38.820 Now, we knew that going into nature
00:03:41.440 is good for you
00:03:42.580 in a whole variety of ways,
00:03:43.860 for your health
00:03:44.580 and your mental well-being,
00:03:46.080 but apparently it makes you feel
00:03:47.780 like you're connected
00:03:48.940 to other people,
00:03:49.900 which made me instantly wonder
00:03:54.620 if looking at a screen
00:03:57.960 makes you feel like you're God.
00:04:00.420 Did you ever have that thought?
00:04:02.840 And so I kind of understand this.
00:04:04.660 When I'm done with my live stream
00:04:06.400 in the morning
00:04:06.880 and I get ready for my day,
00:04:10.060 usually the first thing I do
00:04:11.300 is take my dog to the park.
00:04:13.780 And the dog doesn't do much.
00:04:15.060 She just sniffs the grass,
00:04:16.360 and I stand there
00:04:17.680 while she sniffs it.
00:04:19.120 But I am so addicted
00:04:21.180 to the physical
00:04:23.440 and mental feeling I get
00:04:24.960 for what is really
00:04:26.760 maybe 20 minutes
00:04:28.500 just standing in a nice place outdoors,
00:04:31.520 you know,
00:04:31.840 with nice trees and grass around.
00:04:34.280 It is so obviously good for me.
00:04:37.200 Like when I miss it for a day,
00:04:39.080 if something comes up,
00:04:40.700 I really feel it.
00:04:42.960 So I could not be more enthusiastic
00:04:46.040 about make sure you go out before noon.
00:04:48.560 This is the Andrew Huberman thing.
00:04:51.840 Go out before noon
00:04:52.900 and just stand there for a few minutes
00:04:55.200 in some nice tree-lined grassy place.
00:04:59.660 You'll be amazed how different it feels.
00:05:02.260 But it does make me wonder
00:05:03.720 if I'm looking at a screen,
00:05:05.160 which I do all day when I'm indoors,
00:05:07.140 does that make me feel
00:05:08.620 like I'm not connected,
00:05:10.540 that people are little things on screens?
00:05:13.980 And you start to think
00:05:15.500 that you're not really connected to them.
00:05:17.240 They're just images on the screen.
00:05:18.840 And then when you walk outside,
00:05:20.420 you realize,
00:05:21.000 oh, wait,
00:05:21.640 I'm the image on the screen.
00:05:25.200 Nature is the screen.
00:05:27.040 And I'm just a thing on it.
00:05:28.540 And then you feel connected to everything.
00:05:30.440 So I don't believe
00:05:31.960 that this kind of science
00:05:33.640 is necessarily reproducible or accurate,
00:05:36.540 but it fits observation.
00:05:38.280 I do feel like I'm more connected
00:05:40.960 to the world after I go into nature.
00:05:43.540 You might too.
00:05:46.420 Well, there's yet another study.
00:05:48.460 This will sound like a story
00:05:50.360 I've told before
00:05:51.260 because they all start like this.
00:05:53.960 The details are different,
00:05:55.680 but they all start with,
00:05:56.900 there's a new study
00:05:58.020 that says the correlation
00:05:59.660 between CO2
00:06:00.980 and atmospheric temperature
00:06:03.640 is not a real correlation.
00:06:06.080 Well, it's a correlation.
00:06:06.740 It's just not causation.
00:06:08.920 So there's another one
00:06:10.080 from Climate Depot,
00:06:11.700 Kenneth Richard.
00:06:13.440 So they did another study
00:06:14.700 and said that the main factor
00:06:16.140 governing the increase in CO2
00:06:18.840 is the ocean temperature.
00:06:23.940 So rather than CO2
00:06:25.920 causing the temperature to go up,
00:06:28.760 the temperature causes the ocean
00:06:31.540 to release more CO2.
00:06:33.120 So basically there have been
00:06:36.460 multiple studies recently
00:06:38.640 showing that the correlation
00:06:40.660 between CO2 and temperature
00:06:42.380 isn't as strong
00:06:43.660 as a bunch of other correlations.
00:06:47.000 You know,
00:06:47.260 one was about the sun
00:06:48.880 and one now with this one
00:06:50.120 about the temperature
00:06:51.520 of the water.
00:06:54.480 But I'm going to lump all these together
00:06:56.460 into one larger point.
00:06:57.920 You ready for it?
00:07:00.940 One larger point
00:07:02.100 that's sort of above
00:07:02.940 all of these studies
00:07:04.080 that can't find the correlations
00:07:06.180 and they disagree
00:07:07.040 with what's correlated with what
00:07:08.660 and, you know,
00:07:09.700 is CO2 driving something.
00:07:11.680 Here's the overarching point.
00:07:16.060 Humans can't measure
00:07:16.940 the temperature of the earth.
00:07:19.640 That's never been a thing
00:07:21.020 and it probably never will be.
00:07:22.440 It's way too hard.
00:07:25.140 Have you met humans?
00:07:26.820 Now, again,
00:07:27.380 I'm not questioning
00:07:28.200 the accuracy of a device.
00:07:32.280 So if there's a device
00:07:33.280 that's measuring some temperature,
00:07:35.120 it's probably reasonably good.
00:07:38.300 And we may have lots of those devices
00:07:40.240 in lots of places,
00:07:41.500 but we don't have them
00:07:42.760 in enough places
00:07:43.700 and we don't have humans
00:07:44.940 who can accurately collect them
00:07:46.660 and we can't be sure
00:07:48.000 that there isn't a heat island.
00:07:49.980 We can't be sure
00:07:50.880 that something hasn't changed
00:07:52.040 with a device
00:07:52.700 since we put it in.
00:07:53.820 We can't really compare it
00:07:55.060 to the devices we used to use
00:07:56.740 and say,
00:07:57.160 well, it's all the same
00:07:57.980 as if they were the same device.
00:08:00.180 No, humans can't measure
00:08:01.460 the temperature of the world.
00:08:05.100 There's not the slightest chance
00:08:06.840 that humans can measure
00:08:09.580 the temperature of the earth
00:08:10.900 on average
00:08:11.680 and then predict it
00:08:12.580 into the future.
00:08:13.680 You don't need to know
00:08:14.680 anything about science.
00:08:16.280 It's not even a science question.
00:08:19.500 It's really just
00:08:20.540 a complexity thing.
00:08:22.040 If you put humans
00:08:23.580 into a,
00:08:24.320 Jesus,
00:08:26.060 a complexity situation.
00:08:29.360 Wow.
00:08:33.080 Okay, I just saw a funny meme.
00:08:35.600 All right.
00:08:37.120 So, who knows about,
00:08:38.600 I'm not saying
00:08:39.400 you shouldn't believe
00:08:40.060 the new studies
00:08:40.920 that are trying
00:08:41.820 to debunk climate change.
00:08:43.880 I'm just saying
00:08:44.740 that science is just
00:08:45.800 a pretty sketchy domain
00:08:47.600 in general.
00:08:48.300 And we were taught
00:08:50.280 to worship it,
00:08:51.620 but that was always
00:08:52.720 brainwashing.
00:08:54.360 It was never based
00:08:55.020 on what was real.
00:08:56.680 Well, here's some good news.
00:08:58.580 The U.S.
00:08:59.380 Nuclear Regulatory Agency
00:09:00.860 just approved
00:09:01.820 their first
00:09:02.640 generation
00:09:03.580 generation four
00:09:04.740 nuclear reactor.
00:09:08.320 Now,
00:09:09.080 if you've been with me
00:09:10.480 since, oh,
00:09:11.360 2016 or so,
00:09:13.280 how many times
00:09:14.240 have I said,
00:09:14.920 you know,
00:09:15.200 the future is
00:09:15.900 these generation four
00:09:17.120 nuclear reactors.
00:09:18.980 The current generation 0.99
00:09:19.980 is generation three,
00:09:21.180 if you were to build one
00:09:22.120 with the standard technology.
00:09:24.580 Generation three
00:09:25.560 is still capable
00:09:29.520 of melting down.
00:09:31.300 Now,
00:09:31.660 as Michael Schellenberger
00:09:32.600 will teach you,
00:09:33.880 none of them have.
00:09:35.660 There's never been
00:09:36.440 a meltdown
00:09:37.160 of a generation three.
00:09:38.420 Did you know that?
00:09:39.780 Did you know
00:09:40.280 that the current technology,
00:09:42.540 if you were going
00:09:43.020 to build a power plant
00:09:45.020 with the,
00:09:45.580 let's say,
00:09:46.060 the established technology,
00:09:48.460 not one of them
00:09:49.260 has ever melted down.
00:09:51.280 It's all the prior versions
00:09:53.200 that melted down.
00:09:54.000 You know,
00:09:54.560 the Fukushima
00:09:56.120 and the,
00:09:57.840 you know,
00:09:58.040 basically anything
00:09:58.740 that melted down
00:09:59.360 was a prior generation.
00:10:00.900 Now,
00:10:01.260 that doesn't mean
00:10:01.800 that you could never
00:10:03.020 have a generation three
00:10:05.160 meltdown,
00:10:05.860 but it's never happened
00:10:07.520 and there are
00:10:08.880 quite a few of them.
00:10:10.520 So,
00:10:11.200 generation four
00:10:12.120 takes the risk
00:10:13.880 of meltdown
00:10:14.580 completely out of the equation.
00:10:16.960 So,
00:10:17.260 it's built so that
00:10:18.160 even if everything
00:10:18.960 went wrong,
00:10:19.560 it just turns off.
00:10:21.800 So,
00:10:22.400 that's not what
00:10:23.120 the current design is.
00:10:24.140 The current design is
00:10:25.000 if you don't have electricity,
00:10:26.700 you can't run the cooling,
00:10:28.280 the water cooling.
00:10:29.540 And if you're not running
00:10:30.260 the water cooling,
00:10:31.140 it melts down.
00:10:32.360 So,
00:10:32.620 basically,
00:10:33.160 you need an external
00:10:34.160 energy source
00:10:35.940 in case there's a power failure.
00:10:37.820 It's a big deal.
00:10:40.020 But the new ones,
00:10:41.500 if the power goes off,
00:10:42.900 it just turns off.
00:10:44.200 There's like no risk
00:10:45.200 of meltdown at all.
00:10:47.340 So,
00:10:47.900 it's the first one
00:10:48.640 ever approved
00:10:49.600 and they're going to start
00:10:50.420 building this darn thing
00:10:51.700 and
00:10:52.700 let me give
00:10:54.220 the Biden-Harris
00:10:55.440 administration credit.
00:10:57.840 Now,
00:10:58.460 to be fair,
00:10:59.700 this is a continuation
00:11:01.480 from the Trump policies
00:11:03.180 that I also give credit to.
00:11:06.040 Somebody's going to be
00:11:06.800 the president
00:11:07.340 when you get one of these built.
00:11:09.180 Right?
00:11:09.620 So,
00:11:10.100 I mean,
00:11:10.420 you could also imagine
00:11:11.940 that two presidents
00:11:14.120 from now,
00:11:14.640 this will go online.
00:11:16.360 You know,
00:11:16.540 it might even be
00:11:17.380 after the next president.
00:11:19.300 And that president will say,
00:11:20.780 look what I did.
00:11:22.560 And I will say,
00:11:24.080 yes,
00:11:24.380 you did.
00:11:25.720 You know,
00:11:25.940 your policies were compatible
00:11:27.580 with this coming online,
00:11:29.460 but so was the last president
00:11:30.840 and so was the president
00:11:32.580 before that.
00:11:33.820 So,
00:11:34.320 it turns out
00:11:34.940 that nuclear power
00:11:36.640 is the most unifying thing
00:11:38.620 in the United States.
00:11:41.080 It is one thing
00:11:42.140 that the smartest Democrats
00:11:43.640 and the smartest Republicans
00:11:45.400 agree on 100%.
00:11:46.820 There's no disagreement
00:11:48.800 among the smarter people.
00:11:50.680 Now,
00:11:50.860 there's a whole,
00:11:51.420 there's a whole layer
00:11:52.960 of citizens
00:11:54.340 who are not up to date.
00:11:56.420 They don't know
00:11:57.280 the actual risks.
00:11:58.440 They don't know
00:11:58.900 that we've solved
00:11:59.680 the nuclear waste problem
00:12:01.340 by just storing it on site.
00:12:03.280 It's basically solved.
00:12:05.440 And nobody's really
00:12:06.420 got a problem with it.
00:12:07.620 It's solved.
00:12:09.740 So,
00:12:10.320 if you're not up to date,
00:12:11.240 you're still with the,
00:12:12.500 you know,
00:12:12.680 1970s scare,
00:12:15.000 scare brainwashing,
00:12:16.880 then you think
00:12:17.940 it's a bad idea.
00:12:18.820 But this is one
00:12:19.700 of the very few things
00:12:20.800 where I will give
00:12:22.180 full credit,
00:12:23.260 full credit,
00:12:23.940 no restrictions,
00:12:24.920 to the Biden-Harris
00:12:26.240 administration,
00:12:27.900 but also
00:12:29.100 equal credit
00:12:30.640 to the Trump administration
00:12:32.480 that got them
00:12:33.220 to that point as well.
00:12:34.880 It's the one thing
00:12:35.860 that I have
00:12:36.360 no complaints about.
00:12:37.780 I do think
00:12:38.560 the government
00:12:39.020 is doing
00:12:39.460 all the right stuff.
00:12:40.780 They're trying
00:12:41.320 to remove
00:12:41.760 the regulations
00:12:43.380 that were too burdensome,
00:12:45.560 building the right
00:12:46.320 kind of models,
00:12:47.160 funding it.
00:12:48.420 They built a test bed.
00:12:50.840 It's all good stuff.
00:12:52.960 All right.
00:12:53.440 Other good stuff
00:12:54.380 is that the X platform
00:12:55.740 is coming to a TV
00:12:56.940 near you.
00:12:58.220 I saw just a demo online
00:12:59.940 and I have to admit,
00:13:01.780 it looks like
00:13:02.280 it's going to be
00:13:02.740 a little bit addictive.
00:13:04.320 So,
00:13:04.880 if you haven't done
00:13:05.620 this already
00:13:06.220 on the X platform,
00:13:07.420 if you're looking
00:13:08.360 at one video,
00:13:09.640 you can just scroll
00:13:11.200 from that video
00:13:12.860 to whatever
00:13:13.780 is the next video.
00:13:15.020 I don't know
00:13:15.460 how it gets served up.
00:13:16.800 But once you get
00:13:17.520 in that loop
00:13:18.180 of just going
00:13:18.820 from a quick video
00:13:20.000 to a quick video,
00:13:21.140 one topic to the other,
00:13:22.700 usually stuff
00:13:23.400 you care about
00:13:24.040 because the algorithm
00:13:25.760 does that.
00:13:26.640 It is really sticky.
00:13:28.720 I'm completely addicted
00:13:29.840 to reels
00:13:30.700 and all these
00:13:33.000 little short form.
00:13:34.640 So, yeah,
00:13:35.120 put that on a TV
00:13:36.120 and I'll be interested.
00:13:36.940 I don't know
00:13:37.560 the details
00:13:38.120 of which TVs
00:13:39.160 will have them.
00:13:40.920 Maybe it's just
00:13:41.940 new smart TVs
00:13:43.840 with a built-in feature.
00:13:46.040 Can I ever get this
00:13:47.160 on Apple TV?
00:13:49.400 Will it ever
00:13:50.240 be available
00:13:50.960 on anything
00:13:53.360 except a brand
00:13:54.160 new smart TV?
00:13:55.020 I don't know.
00:13:56.000 So,
00:13:56.560 I don't know
00:13:56.920 the answer
00:13:57.220 to that question.
00:13:59.600 Wall Street Journal
00:14:00.320 says teachers
00:14:01.000 are burning out
00:14:01.920 on the job.
00:14:03.260 Their biggest problems
00:14:04.120 are student behavior
00:14:05.220 and their mental health
00:14:07.340 and their cell
00:14:07.940 kids using cell phones
00:14:09.340 and, you know,
00:14:10.560 the pay isn't high enough
00:14:11.620 and the kids
00:14:12.840 are cheating
00:14:13.220 using AI.
00:14:14.180 But the biggest one
00:14:14.980 by far
00:14:15.400 is the student behavior
00:14:16.520 problems.
00:14:17.440 And I said to myself,
00:14:18.700 how could you possibly
00:14:20.420 have a classroom
00:14:21.360 of 20 kids
00:14:22.600 raised by 20
00:14:23.660 different parents
00:14:24.380 in 2024?
00:14:27.000 That's really
00:14:27.760 a helpless situation.
00:14:30.000 Now,
00:14:30.680 I do not approve
00:14:32.460 of violence.
00:14:34.320 So,
00:14:34.800 let me say that first.
00:14:35.700 But let me just
00:14:37.040 describe something.
00:14:39.040 When I grew up,
00:14:40.980 all the kids
00:14:42.000 were raised the same.
00:14:44.100 If you got
00:14:44.880 out of line
00:14:45.320 too far,
00:14:45.880 somebody hit you.
00:14:47.460 They hit you.
00:14:49.120 You'd get hit.
00:14:50.760 Like,
00:14:51.180 in one way,
00:14:51.740 you could get punched.
00:14:53.340 You might get hit
00:14:54.000 with a blunt object.
00:14:56.460 You might get,
00:14:57.240 you know,
00:14:57.800 spanked,
00:14:58.480 depending on what age
00:14:59.420 you are.
00:15:00.000 But you would get
00:15:01.080 physically abused
00:15:02.580 if you got out of line.
00:15:05.700 Now,
00:15:06.440 I'm not in favor
00:15:07.920 of that.
00:15:09.280 I'm not in favor
00:15:10.020 of that.
00:15:10.340 I'm describing it.
00:15:11.680 I'm simply describing it.
00:15:13.100 But what it did have
00:15:14.120 is this one
00:15:14.920 feature
00:15:15.920 as a system.
00:15:17.720 As a system,
00:15:19.140 it created
00:15:19.700 20 people
00:15:20.480 who would go
00:15:20.940 sit in the room
00:15:21.640 and when the teacher
00:15:23.160 said,
00:15:23.660 you better do this
00:15:24.440 or you're in trouble,
00:15:25.740 all 20 of us
00:15:26.720 knew that we would
00:15:27.500 get this shit beat 0.87
00:15:28.240 out of us
00:15:28.720 if we didn't do
00:15:29.380 this thing.
00:15:31.420 Like,
00:15:32.040 physical danger.
00:15:33.900 Now,
00:15:34.160 it wouldn't
00:15:34.380 necessarily be
00:15:34.980 the teacher.
00:15:36.140 It might be
00:15:36.840 your parents
00:15:37.340 when you got home.
00:15:38.840 Not every parent,
00:15:39.940 of course.
00:15:41.040 But sometimes
00:15:41.900 it was actually
00:15:42.480 the teacher.
00:15:43.540 In the school
00:15:44.060 I went to,
00:15:44.600 the teachers
00:15:45.060 would actually
00:15:45.560 beat up the kids
00:15:46.440 or spank them
00:15:48.020 or pull down
00:15:48.640 their pants 0.95
00:15:49.120 and paddle them 0.93
00:15:50.280 in front of the class.
00:15:51.500 I mean,
00:15:51.760 just grotesque stuff.
00:15:54.480 So I'm not
00:15:55.160 in favor of it.
00:15:56.140 I'm just saying
00:15:56.880 it caused
00:15:57.560 the system to work
00:15:58.740 because the teacher
00:15:59.920 could scare the kids
00:16:00.940 with physical violence
00:16:02.200 without ever
00:16:03.980 saying anything
00:16:04.580 about physical violence.
00:16:05.840 It was always implied.
00:16:07.440 But now it's not.
00:16:09.720 How in the world
00:16:10.740 could you control
00:16:11.580 20 kids
00:16:12.420 raised in 20
00:16:13.420 different systems?
00:16:15.540 It doesn't seem
00:16:16.700 even doable
00:16:17.340 on paper.
00:16:18.400 If I wrote this down
00:16:19.840 as a system,
00:16:20.560 all right,
00:16:20.780 I got an idea.
00:16:21.480 Everybody.
00:16:22.420 We're going to have
00:16:22.860 all the kids
00:16:23.300 come to one place
00:16:24.220 and then we'll have
00:16:25.880 this one poor bastard
00:16:27.160 try to control them.
00:16:30.820 But they'll all be raised
00:16:32.140 in different systems
00:16:33.180 with different incentives
00:16:34.240 and different risk-rewards
00:16:35.800 so that nothing
00:16:37.100 the teacher says
00:16:37.980 will connect with the kid
00:16:39.180 as something
00:16:40.000 they really need to do.
00:16:42.440 If you just wrote
00:16:43.420 that system down
00:16:44.340 and said,
00:16:44.860 this is what we're going to do,
00:16:45.980 nobody would say
00:16:46.560 that was a good idea.
00:16:47.960 But it was
00:16:48.900 when I was a kid.
00:16:50.160 It was a totally
00:16:51.100 workable system
00:16:52.000 but it was also
00:16:53.460 based on some violence
00:16:55.160 so you can't recommend it.
00:16:57.880 Here's what I think
00:16:58.780 is the likely future.
00:17:02.980 It's clear that AI
00:17:04.720 will be part
00:17:05.380 of the teaching process.
00:17:07.180 It won't be all of it
00:17:07.960 but it'll be part of it.
00:17:09.000 I think what you're going to have
00:17:10.060 is much smaller classes
00:17:11.640 like groups of
00:17:14.120 four to six people
00:17:15.540 that were raised
00:17:17.640 similarly enough
00:17:18.980 or they're similar enough
00:17:20.220 to each other
00:17:20.860 that you don't have
00:17:22.120 to work too hard
00:17:23.040 to get their obedience
00:17:24.180 to listen to the class.
00:17:26.460 So the first thing you do
00:17:27.340 is make the AI part of it
00:17:29.000 so that people are interested.
00:17:31.200 That's the first part.
00:17:32.420 Make them interested.
00:17:34.040 And the second part
00:17:35.300 is make sure
00:17:35.860 you don't put
00:17:36.480 all the,
00:17:37.500 like a bad person
00:17:38.540 with some people
00:17:39.360 who are willing to listen.
00:17:41.300 But then if you have
00:17:42.300 half a dozen people
00:17:43.280 who never listen to anything,
00:17:45.320 there might be a way
00:17:46.280 to control them differently
00:17:47.680 than you would control
00:17:49.420 the other group.
00:17:50.080 I don't know
00:17:50.680 what it would be,
00:17:51.840 bribery or threats
00:17:53.340 or something.
00:17:54.760 But I think
00:17:55.500 smaller classes
00:17:56.340 are a necessity
00:17:57.400 of the future
00:17:58.200 because kids
00:17:59.140 are too hard
00:17:59.800 to control
00:18:00.440 in a number.
00:18:02.140 If you have 20 kids,
00:18:03.220 there's just nothing
00:18:03.740 you can do
00:18:04.320 in the modern world.
00:18:06.600 Smaller classes.

00:19:09.160 That's what I say.
00:19:10.760 Well, there's an indication
00:19:12.260 that Speaker Johnson
00:19:13.420 might combine
00:19:15.920 the next spending bill,
00:19:17.420 which would be required
00:19:18.500 for running the country,
00:19:20.600 even though it's
00:19:21.320 a short-term one,
00:19:22.900 might combine that
00:19:24.120 with the voter,
00:19:27.960 there's a voter,
00:19:29.100 what do you call it,
00:19:29.600 security, integrity,
00:19:31.320 an election integrity thing,
00:19:33.120 which basically would
00:19:34.700 require the states
00:19:36.380 to make sure
00:19:37.140 that only citizens
00:19:38.260 are voting.
00:19:39.700 So they would have to
00:19:40.440 make sure only citizens
00:19:41.700 are voting.
00:19:42.580 Now, who would be
00:19:43.180 against that?
00:19:44.680 I mean, who in the world
00:19:45.860 would be opposed
00:19:46.780 to making sure
00:19:47.560 that only citizens voted?
00:19:50.280 Democrats.
00:19:51.640 Democrats.
00:19:52.460 Why would they be
00:19:53.300 opposed to that?
00:19:55.460 For the obvious reason
00:19:56.900 that you think.
00:19:57.900 There's not really
00:19:58.980 a second reason.
00:19:59.780 I can't even pretend
00:20:01.320 there are two sides
00:20:02.140 to this.
00:20:03.640 Lots of, you know,
00:20:04.240 you've watched me
00:20:05.020 and maybe sometimes
00:20:06.020 much to your displeasure,
00:20:09.640 I often try to
00:20:11.060 steel man the other side
00:20:12.340 and say, look,
00:20:13.480 you need to understand
00:20:14.200 what the other argument is,
00:20:15.720 otherwise you're
00:20:16.320 just being absurd.
00:20:17.860 I mean, you can still
00:20:18.440 be right,
00:20:19.480 but if you don't even
00:20:20.700 understand what
00:20:21.420 the other argument is,
00:20:22.440 you're just living
00:20:23.340 some absurd existence.
00:20:24.840 You've got to understand
00:20:25.440 the other side.
00:20:26.760 So,
00:20:27.380 what's the other side?
00:20:30.340 There really isn't
00:20:31.320 another side on this one.
00:20:33.000 This one is,
00:20:34.300 one side's trying
00:20:35.240 to get away
00:20:35.700 with something
00:20:36.200 that's cheating,
00:20:37.200 in my opinion,
00:20:38.780 and the other side
00:20:40.300 is trying to stop it.
00:20:41.420 I don't see anything
00:20:42.300 else happening here.
00:20:43.640 There's no second
00:20:44.440 argument to this.
00:20:45.880 But still,
00:20:46.620 they're trying.
00:20:47.960 So,
00:20:48.500 good job,
00:20:49.520 Speaker Johnson,
00:20:50.160 if you get away
00:20:50.860 with this.
00:20:51.280 I don't know
00:20:51.580 if this is confirmed.
00:20:52.780 We don't know
00:20:53.280 if it'll work.
00:20:54.560 I would expect
00:20:55.780 that the Democrats
00:20:56.880 would prefer
00:20:57.860 not funding
00:21:00.220 the government.
00:21:02.640 So,
00:21:03.200 I believe,
00:21:03.740 I believe literally
00:21:04.900 that the Democrats
00:21:06.420 would say,
00:21:06.840 you know what?
00:21:07.760 It would be better
00:21:08.380 just to not even
00:21:09.220 fund the government,
00:21:10.100 just close the whole
00:21:10.880 thing down
00:21:11.380 because we need
00:21:12.740 the cheat.
00:21:14.220 We need the illegal
00:21:15.580 votes.
00:21:16.560 I think they'll choose
00:21:17.440 closing the government
00:21:18.440 and then we're
00:21:19.880 going to watch it.
00:21:20.900 We're going to watch it
00:21:21.920 like we don't understand
00:21:22.860 what's happening.
00:21:24.080 Why are they
00:21:25.860 closing the government
00:21:26.780 over just making
00:21:28.520 sure their voting
00:21:29.220 is done appropriately?
00:21:30.600 There's one reason
00:21:31.580 and we're probably
00:21:32.860 going to be staring
00:21:33.580 right at it.
00:21:36.020 All right.
00:21:37.640 You might remember
00:21:38.860 that back in,
00:21:40.580 it probably was
00:21:41.400 2016 or so,
00:21:44.000 I started seeing
00:21:45.440 that with the
00:21:46.340 Hillary Clinton
00:21:47.180 campaign
00:21:48.440 that it was
00:21:49.660 becoming a
00:21:50.340 boys versus 0.55
00:21:51.060 a girls 0.98
00:21:51.660 politics.
00:21:53.460 And that the
00:21:54.800 Democrats would 0.89
00:21:55.580 increasingly become
00:21:56.820 the party of women
00:21:57.760 and that the
00:21:59.140 Republicans would
00:22:00.080 increasingly become
00:22:01.100 the party of men.
00:22:02.400 And now there's an
00:22:03.600 article in Axios
00:22:04.640 that that's
00:22:06.880 exactly what
00:22:07.500 happened.
00:22:08.080 And they
00:22:09.420 actually say it's
00:22:10.600 going to be the
00:22:11.280 boys against the
00:22:12.500 girls.
00:22:13.880 And Harris has a
00:22:15.180 13 point lead
00:22:16.280 among women
00:22:16.920 and Trump has
00:22:18.440 a,
00:22:19.860 what?
00:22:21.480 says it only
00:22:22.680 has a five-point
00:22:23.440 advantage among
00:22:24.140 men.
00:22:27.980 How's that
00:22:28.660 possible?
00:22:31.040 That doesn't
00:22:31.900 sound right.
00:22:32.860 I think the
00:22:33.920 actual fact is
00:22:35.460 that Trump has a
00:22:37.300 bigger advantage
00:22:38.000 with men and
00:22:39.360 Harris has a
00:22:41.140 bigger advantage
00:22:41.780 with women.
00:22:43.280 But here's my
00:22:45.420 question for
00:22:46.640 you historians.
00:22:50.060 Has there ever
00:22:51.180 been a
00:22:52.260 successful
00:22:53.420 civilization in
00:22:54.840 the long run
00:22:55.480 that was a
00:22:56.500 matriarchy? 1.00
00:22:58.840 The Iroquois
00:23:00.280 nation was
00:23:02.380 a matriarchy. 1.00
00:23:04.560 There were a lot
00:23:05.120 of male chiefs,
00:23:06.420 but the male
00:23:06.980 chiefs would be
00:23:08.460 subordinate to
00:23:10.120 the females who 1.00
00:23:12.340 were running the
00:23:13.260 operation.
00:23:13.760 But has
00:23:16.080 there ever
00:23:16.440 been a
00:23:17.180 country that
00:23:18.100 was clearly
00:23:19.900 identified as a
00:23:21.040 matriarchy and 1.00
00:23:23.020 became a world
00:23:23.940 power?
00:23:24.720 Because China is
00:23:25.700 not a matriarchy,
00:23:26.640 is it?
00:23:28.540 Russia is not a
00:23:30.420 matriarchy, 1.00
00:23:31.400 is it?
00:23:37.000 But there are
00:23:38.040 some countries
00:23:38.720 that are leaning
00:23:39.280 in that direction.
00:23:40.800 Are they not?
00:23:41.840 And I'm
00:23:44.120 wondering,
00:23:44.940 what is the
00:23:46.120 country that
00:23:46.800 became a
00:23:47.400 matriarchy and 1.00
00:23:48.820 then everything
00:23:49.580 went well after
00:23:50.420 that?
00:23:53.080 Is there one?
00:23:54.840 Because the
00:23:55.540 U.S.
00:23:56.060 has a decision
00:23:57.540 about whether
00:23:58.220 we should be a
00:23:59.240 matriarchy or a 1.00
00:24:00.100 patriarchy.
00:24:01.380 Now, you could
00:24:02.160 say, but the
00:24:02.800 patriarchy starts
00:24:03.880 wars and does
00:24:04.680 all that.
00:24:05.120 Yeah.
00:24:05.880 Yeah, it does.
00:24:07.400 I don't like that
00:24:08.180 at all.
00:24:09.180 So I'm not
00:24:10.120 going to make a
00:24:10.700 claim that
00:24:11.320 everything about
00:24:12.580 the patriarchy is
00:24:13.480 better than
00:24:13.880 everything about
00:24:14.600 the matriarchy. 0.97
00:24:15.640 That would be
00:24:16.360 ridiculous.
00:24:17.440 But if you
00:24:18.180 could find
00:24:18.600 somebody who
00:24:19.160 would run a
00:24:19.620 patriarchy who
00:24:20.840 is unambiguously
00:24:21.900 opposed to war,
00:24:23.980 well, now you're
00:24:24.900 talking.
00:24:26.100 Now you're
00:24:26.780 talking.
00:24:27.980 Give me the
00:24:28.440 patriarchy that's 0.98
00:24:29.420 unambiguously opposed
00:24:30.740 to war, but is
00:24:32.620 willing to
00:24:33.180 absolutely destroy
00:24:34.620 anybody who wants
00:24:35.400 to fuck with us. 0.99
00:24:36.920 I'll take that.
00:24:37.960 I'll take that
00:24:39.340 all day long, and
00:24:41.040 that's Trump.
00:24:42.480 Trump is
00:24:43.160 unambiguously opposed
00:24:44.420 to war.
00:24:44.980 There's no doubt
00:24:45.520 about that.
00:24:46.680 I mean, I don't
00:24:47.280 even, I don't
00:24:48.160 even think, I
00:24:50.020 don't even think
00:24:50.580 his opponents
00:24:51.300 disagree with that
00:24:52.840 statement.
00:24:53.580 They're worried
00:24:54.180 that he would
00:24:54.580 end wars.
00:24:56.060 They're worried
00:24:56.740 he might end
00:24:57.320 the Ukrainian
00:24:57.920 war, you know,
00:24:58.840 in a way they
00:24:59.280 don't like, I
00:24:59.800 guess.
00:24:59.960 So he's
00:25:02.140 unambiguously
00:25:02.820 anti-war, but
00:25:04.480 he's also the
00:25:05.540 scariest, most
00:25:06.860 unpredictable one
00:25:08.000 that the
00:25:08.800 other countries
00:25:10.420 are very
00:25:11.000 clearly worried
00:25:12.620 about, because
00:25:13.960 he will drop a
00:25:14.820 mother of all
00:25:15.320 bomb on you
00:25:16.000 if necessary.
00:25:18.240 I mean, the
00:25:18.660 ultimate patriarchy
00:25:20.000 is, you know,
00:25:20.660 dad's coming
00:25:21.340 home, but that
00:25:23.020 doesn't mean he's
00:25:23.580 going to beat you
00:25:24.040 with a belt if he
00:25:24.760 didn't do anything
00:25:25.280 wrong.
00:25:26.960 It just means if
00:25:28.220 there's a big
00:25:28.760 problem, dad's
00:25:29.640 home.
00:25:30.420 It doesn't mean
00:25:31.000 he's going to
00:25:31.360 create one.
00:25:33.140 So I wonder,
00:25:35.580 you know, it
00:25:36.480 makes me wonder
00:25:37.040 if you had a
00:25:37.760 poll that
00:25:39.600 said, all
00:25:40.740 things being
00:25:41.340 equal, if the
00:25:42.720 United States
00:25:43.300 could become a
00:25:44.140 patriarchy or 0.87
00:25:45.900 a matriarchy, 1.00
00:25:46.880 which would be
00:25:48.540 better for success
00:25:49.660 in the long run?
00:25:50.520 What would
00:25:50.920 people say?
00:25:52.440 I think Democrats
00:25:53.800 would actually go
00:25:54.480 for the
00:25:54.740 matriarchy. 1.00
00:25:57.140 I don't know
00:25:57.940 that, but I
00:25:58.700 think by at
00:26:00.040 least a majority,
00:26:01.840 like over 50%
00:26:02.980 of Democrats
00:26:04.480 would say, you
00:26:04.980 know what?
00:26:05.360 It's time for a
00:26:06.120 matriarchy. 1.00
00:26:08.320 I think
00:26:08.900 Republicans would
00:26:09.780 be 80-20 or
00:26:11.660 90-10 against
00:26:12.580 it.
00:26:14.340 So I would
00:26:15.420 just be so
00:26:16.160 curious.
00:26:22.860 Yeah, okay.
00:26:23.920 I'm just looking
00:26:24.460 at a meme, but
00:26:25.100 I'm going to
00:26:25.640 skip that.
00:26:27.140 All right.
00:26:27.680 So the boys
00:26:28.360 versus girls. 0.97
00:26:31.360 I've told you
00:26:32.400 this before, but
00:26:33.140 the political
00:26:34.440 talk about who
00:26:35.340 flip-flopped.
00:26:36.980 I wonder if
00:26:37.960 anybody's ever
00:26:38.620 changed their
00:26:39.180 vote because
00:26:41.120 they found out
00:26:42.420 a candidate
00:26:42.900 flip-flopped.
00:26:44.920 That might be
00:26:45.820 the weakest
00:26:46.440 persuasion, the
00:26:47.620 whole hypocrisy
00:26:48.680 thing and the
00:26:49.340 flip-flopping.
00:26:50.280 I don't think
00:26:50.820 that moves any
00:26:51.500 votes because
00:26:52.780 it's sort of
00:26:53.940 conceptual, and
00:26:56.120 people care what
00:26:56.840 you think today.
00:26:57.580 do you care that
00:27:00.420 Trump used to
00:27:01.180 be a Democrat?
00:27:02.200 Is there even
00:27:02.800 one Republican
00:27:03.660 who's going to
00:27:04.200 vote against
00:27:04.680 him because he
00:27:06.020 used to be a
00:27:06.660 Democrat?
00:27:07.180 Because that's
00:27:07.540 like a flip-flop.
00:27:08.900 Right?
00:27:09.960 No.
00:27:11.040 No.
00:27:12.140 So I was
00:27:14.160 listening to,
00:27:15.200 who was it,
00:27:16.320 Whitmer?
00:27:17.420 Governor Whitmer
00:27:18.120 talking about
00:27:20.100 Trump.
00:27:20.440 And listen to
00:27:22.300 this flip-flop
00:27:23.200 accusation.
00:27:24.400 Quote, he has
00:27:25.740 praised his
00:27:26.400 appointments to
00:27:27.040 the U.S.
00:27:27.440 Supreme Court.
00:27:28.000 He was happy
00:27:28.520 when Roe v.
00:27:29.460 Wade fell.
00:27:30.600 But here's the
00:27:31.160 flip-flop, she 0.96
00:27:31.820 says.
00:27:32.520 Now he's trying
00:27:33.300 to pretend he
00:27:34.340 wants longer
00:27:35.020 than six weeks
00:27:36.020 before an
00:27:37.380 abortion, even
00:27:38.360 though he's
00:27:38.880 flip-flopped
00:27:39.560 even on that.
00:27:40.780 You cannot
00:27:41.240 trust him when
00:27:41.940 it comes to
00:27:42.340 women's health. 0.71
00:27:43.580 To which I
00:27:44.080 say, okay,
00:27:45.560 the question of
00:27:46.780 which part of
00:27:47.920 the government
00:27:48.440 decides on the
00:27:49.420 laws is
00:27:50.440 is not
00:27:51.600 related to
00:27:52.380 his personal
00:27:53.000 opinion that
00:27:53.600 it should be
00:27:54.000 at least six
00:27:54.600 weeks or
00:27:55.020 longer.
00:27:56.200 Those aren't
00:27:56.900 even the same
00:27:57.380 topic.
00:27:58.380 You can't
00:27:58.760 flip-flop on
00:27:59.720 topics that
00:28:01.080 aren't the
00:28:01.500 same topic
00:28:02.460 just because
00:28:03.320 it's generally
00:28:04.080 in that same
00:28:04.740 category of
00:28:05.620 abortion.
00:28:06.860 No.
00:28:07.820 Who makes
00:28:08.280 the decision
00:28:08.820 is completely
00:28:09.580 different than
00:28:10.280 what the
00:28:10.680 decision is.
00:28:12.860 And to
00:28:13.820 make everything
00:28:14.380 sound like a
00:28:15.040 flip-flop or
00:28:15.940 an inconsistency,
00:28:17.160 it just has
00:28:17.900 no persuasive
00:28:18.920 power at all.
00:28:20.440 So it's
00:28:22.240 just something
00:28:22.700 people want to
00:28:23.360 say on TV
00:28:23.960 basically.
00:28:24.960 It's TV
00:28:25.820 fodder.
00:28:26.460 It's not
00:28:26.780 anything beyond
00:28:27.420 that.
00:28:28.880 Well,
00:28:29.160 according to
00:28:30.420 a report
00:28:33.280 from,
00:28:35.040 I forget
00:28:35.600 who says
00:28:35.960 this,
00:28:36.380 it might have
00:28:36.680 been the
00:28:36.900 Wall Street
00:28:37.200 Journal or
00:28:37.780 Axios,
00:28:38.740 I forget,
00:28:39.780 but it says
00:28:40.800 that there
00:28:41.880 are lots of
00:28:42.320 Chinese trolls 0.57
00:28:43.220 getting involved
00:28:45.420 in the election.
00:28:46.400 But interestingly,
00:28:49.320 the accusation
00:28:50.320 is that the
00:28:50.900 Chinese trolls 0.57
00:28:51.620 are not
00:28:52.040 taking sides.
00:28:53.520 So they're
00:28:54.160 not pro-Trump
00:28:55.320 or anti-Trump
00:28:56.220 or pro-Harris
00:28:57.500 or anti-Harris.
00:28:58.460 They're just
00:28:59.060 sort of saying
00:29:00.060 whatever gets
00:29:00.900 us fighting.
00:29:02.240 So they're more
00:29:02.740 about stirring
00:29:03.700 up divisiveness.
00:29:07.140 Here's my take
00:29:08.160 on this story.
00:29:09.780 Complete bullshit.
00:29:10.540 I don't think
00:29:13.100 there are any
00:29:13.460 Chinese trolls 0.57
00:29:14.240 of any
00:29:14.840 circumstance.
00:29:15.940 Remember when
00:29:16.420 the government
00:29:17.040 tried to tell us
00:29:18.080 and the news
00:29:18.600 tried to tell us
00:29:19.220 there were
00:29:19.920 Russian trolls
00:29:20.680 in 2016
00:29:21.540 that affected
00:29:22.500 the election?
00:29:24.100 And they kept
00:29:24.920 reporting it
00:29:25.520 and reporting it
00:29:26.140 and I kept
00:29:26.620 saying,
00:29:27.340 well,
00:29:28.040 but can you
00:29:28.760 show me
00:29:29.120 some of those
00:29:29.760 tweets at the
00:29:30.620 time?
00:29:31.660 I'd like to
00:29:32.560 see those memes
00:29:33.300 that affected
00:29:33.980 the election.
00:29:34.940 Because if Russia 0.95
00:29:35.660 knows how to
00:29:36.260 affect an election
00:29:37.160 with memes
00:29:38.580 and trolling,
00:29:39.440 well,
00:29:39.620 that's something
00:29:40.040 I want to
00:29:40.420 learn.
00:29:41.320 I want to
00:29:41.660 figure out
00:29:42.160 how do they
00:29:42.880 figure out
00:29:43.300 how to do
00:29:43.640 that?
00:29:44.360 And then when
00:29:44.860 we were finally
00:29:45.520 shown what it
00:29:46.580 was that the
00:29:47.120 Russians did 1.00
00:29:47.780 with that one
00:29:48.580 little troll
00:29:49.160 farm,
00:29:50.340 there were
00:29:50.660 these memes
00:29:51.240 that looked
00:29:51.580 like a
00:29:51.960 sixth grader
00:29:52.600 made them
00:29:53.040 with no
00:29:53.600 understanding
00:29:54.140 of how
00:29:54.460 anything works.
00:29:56.000 They couldn't
00:29:56.460 have possibly,
00:29:58.240 in your wildest
00:29:59.360 imagination,
00:30:00.080 they could not
00:30:00.580 have changed
00:30:01.040 anybody's vote.
00:30:02.420 And they too
00:30:03.100 were sometimes
00:30:04.640 anti-Hillary,
00:30:05.700 sometimes anti-Trump.
00:30:06.780 And I'm
00:30:10.200 going to say
00:30:10.560 that this is
00:30:11.100 the same
00:30:11.480 thing.
00:30:12.800 I do not
00:30:13.500 believe that
00:30:15.020 China has 0.91
00:30:15.760 an effective,
00:30:17.300 effective is
00:30:18.040 the key word
00:30:18.500 here,
00:30:19.400 trolling operation
00:30:20.340 in the United
00:30:20.900 States for the
00:30:21.640 elections.
00:30:22.880 Do you?
00:30:24.480 Do you think
00:30:25.280 that you've
00:30:26.460 seen something
00:30:26.980 that looks like
00:30:27.540 Chinese trolling 0.80
00:30:28.400 that's changing
00:30:29.040 or anything?
00:30:30.260 I don't.
00:30:31.320 Now, it could
00:30:31.780 be that the
00:30:32.240 algorithm on X
00:30:33.900 has improved.
00:30:35.180 So maybe it's
00:30:35.740 a problem on
00:30:36.420 TikTok and
00:30:37.660 so I don't
00:30:38.180 see it.
00:30:39.260 But I don't
00:30:39.740 really see
00:30:40.120 anything that
00:30:40.680 looks like
00:30:41.020 that.
00:30:41.780 And I'm
00:30:42.140 going to go
00:30:42.460 even further.
00:30:43.780 Remember I
00:30:44.280 complained that
00:30:45.020 I was definitely
00:30:45.660 getting trolled?
00:30:47.280 Every time I
00:30:48.120 would do a
00:30:48.460 post about
00:30:48.960 politics,
00:30:49.980 the first or
00:30:50.920 maybe sometimes
00:30:51.680 the second
00:30:52.260 comment would
00:30:53.680 always be the
00:30:54.280 paid troll,
00:30:55.240 just obviously
00:30:56.220 a professional
00:30:57.020 paid troll.
00:30:58.580 And I
00:30:59.220 recognized them
00:30:59.840 because in
00:31:00.160 2016 I was
00:31:01.220 one of the
00:31:01.600 people that
00:31:02.080 they just
00:31:02.860 continuously
00:31:03.680 pestered.
00:31:04.400 And they
00:31:04.580 were later
00:31:05.600 confirmed to
00:31:06.420 be David
00:31:07.000 Brock paid
00:31:08.040 trolls.
00:31:09.300 So I wasn't
00:31:10.160 guessing.
00:31:11.280 It's all been
00:31:12.040 confirmed by the
00:31:12.800 news.
00:31:13.140 They were paid
00:31:13.660 Democrat trolls.
00:31:14.840 They were
00:31:15.280 definitely on me
00:31:16.220 all the time.
00:31:17.180 But that
00:31:17.780 stopped.
00:31:19.320 And it was
00:31:19.940 just this one
00:31:20.620 troll that would
00:31:22.060 come in every
00:31:22.740 time.
00:31:23.460 It wasn't the
00:31:23.960 same troll.
00:31:24.540 It was a
00:31:24.860 different troll.
00:31:25.480 But they
00:31:25.840 acted the same.
00:31:26.600 They were all
00:31:27.300 obviously paid.
00:31:28.820 But here's the
00:31:29.440 thing.
00:31:31.860 They just
00:31:32.520 went away.
00:31:33.680 It just
00:31:34.500 stopped.
00:31:35.940 So whoever
00:31:36.760 was giving
00:31:38.600 the order that
00:31:39.380 I'm on the
00:31:39.960 list of people
00:31:40.560 to troll,
00:31:41.660 either they
00:31:42.200 rescinded the
00:31:42.920 order or
00:31:44.440 they stopped
00:31:45.020 getting funded
00:31:45.640 or the
00:31:48.380 X platform
00:31:49.060 got better at
00:31:49.880 weeding them
00:31:50.380 out so I
00:31:50.880 don't see
00:31:51.180 them.
00:31:52.320 I don't know
00:31:53.220 which happened.
00:31:54.400 But it's
00:31:54.920 quite obvious
00:31:55.740 that I stopped
00:31:56.760 getting trolled.
00:31:58.220 There are still
00:31:58.640 people who
00:31:59.040 disagree with
00:31:59.620 me.
00:31:59.860 But, you
00:32:00.720 know, often
00:32:01.800 they show
00:32:02.440 their identity
00:32:03.020 and they're
00:32:03.620 obviously not
00:32:04.300 trolls.
00:32:05.400 So I've
00:32:06.980 got a little
00:32:07.340 mystery.
00:32:08.320 What happened
00:32:09.000 to my
00:32:09.360 trolls?
00:32:10.440 And I don't
00:32:11.140 believe at all
00:32:11.980 that there's an
00:32:12.640 effective Chinese
00:32:14.320 trolling operation.
00:32:15.780 I do believe
00:32:16.400 there might be
00:32:16.880 some Chinese
00:32:17.400 trolls.
00:32:18.600 But if you're
00:32:19.200 telling me that
00:32:19.940 President Xi
00:32:22.180 has ordered
00:32:23.620 an effective
00:32:25.020 trolling campaign
00:32:26.180 in the United
00:32:26.820 States, I don't
00:32:27.520 think so.
00:32:27.960 it doesn't
00:32:29.020 look like it
00:32:29.420 to me.
00:32:30.120 I mean, I
00:32:30.520 would have
00:32:30.760 seen one
00:32:31.300 of them.
00:32:33.080 So maybe
00:32:33.860 somebody else
00:32:34.380 is getting
00:32:34.760 trolled.
00:32:35.780 So I'm not
00:32:36.600 going to say
00:32:36.940 there's no
00:32:37.540 chance it's
00:32:38.180 true.
00:32:40.160 I'm just
00:32:40.780 going to say
00:32:41.240 when observation
00:32:42.180 doesn't match
00:32:43.220 reporting, you
00:32:45.720 should put up
00:32:46.360 a big
00:32:47.420 skeptical
00:32:48.160 question mark
00:32:49.180 until you
00:32:49.700 know more.
00:32:50.540 So that's
00:32:50.820 where I'm
00:32:51.120 at.
00:32:51.640 Big skeptical
00:32:52.400 question mark.
00:32:54.260 Maybe.
00:32:55.360 But it's
00:32:55.740 possible.
00:32:57.960 All right.
00:32:59.800 Let's say
00:33:00.600 you wanted a
00:33:01.460 peaceful transfer
00:33:02.360 of power in
00:33:03.200 this next
00:33:03.680 election.
00:33:04.220 That's the
00:33:04.520 thing the
00:33:04.820 Democrats say
00:33:05.540 they want
00:33:05.980 the most.
00:33:07.180 Well, I've
00:33:07.660 got an idea
00:33:08.340 for how to
00:33:09.740 improve the
00:33:11.100 odds of a
00:33:12.520 peaceful transfer
00:33:13.440 of power no
00:33:14.140 matter who
00:33:14.600 wins.
00:33:15.400 No matter
00:33:15.820 who wins.
00:33:17.500 And at
00:33:18.300 least a
00:33:18.720 million people
00:33:19.320 have agreed
00:33:19.840 with me so
00:33:20.440 far.
00:33:22.620 Ish.
00:33:23.180 so I'm
00:33:24.680 going to
00:33:24.860 repeat a
00:33:25.500 suggestion I
00:33:26.120 had from
00:33:26.460 yesterday because
00:33:27.760 when I posted
00:33:28.700 it on social
00:33:29.920 media, it
00:33:31.180 got a million
00:33:31.680 views, which
00:33:33.200 by the way, is
00:33:34.420 not that
00:33:34.860 common.
00:33:36.020 A million
00:33:36.880 views.
00:33:38.020 Now, I do
00:33:38.740 have a million
00:33:39.300 subscribers or
00:33:40.780 followers on
00:33:41.500 X, but
00:33:42.660 typically one of
00:33:44.380 my posts would
00:33:45.320 get 25,000
00:33:48.020 views.
00:33:48.900 That would be
00:33:49.740 sort of normal.
00:33:50.980 So to get a
00:33:51.460 million means
00:33:52.980 you really hit
00:33:53.700 a nerve, all
00:33:54.880 right?
00:33:55.200 So this is
00:33:55.880 why you hit a
00:33:56.380 nerve with
00:33:56.960 enough people
00:33:58.320 that a million
00:33:58.760 people viewed
00:33:59.360 it.
00:34:00.660 So you heard
00:34:01.380 this idea
00:34:01.800 yesterday.
00:34:02.660 Suppose Trump
00:34:03.600 asked Harris
00:34:04.740 to join him
00:34:05.440 in announcing
00:34:05.980 that no
00:34:06.420 matter who
00:34:06.880 wins the
00:34:07.300 presidency, all
00:34:08.760 claims of
00:34:09.380 election fraud
00:34:10.120 by either
00:34:10.700 party will
00:34:11.900 be vigorously
00:34:12.680 pursued and
00:34:13.540 prosecuted to
00:34:14.740 the full
00:34:15.180 extent of the
00:34:15.880 law.
00:34:17.600 Now, the
00:34:18.200 idea here is
00:34:18.900 if Harris and
00:34:20.180 the Democrats
00:34:20.800 said, no, we
00:34:22.540 don't want to
00:34:23.060 threaten people
00:34:23.680 with prosecution
00:34:24.440 for rigging an
00:34:25.320 election, well,
00:34:27.000 it would kind of
00:34:27.540 look like they
00:34:28.080 were in favor of
00:34:29.000 rigging an
00:34:29.520 election.
00:34:30.360 So that's no
00:34:31.200 good, but it
00:34:32.280 will at least
00:34:32.500 clarify things.
00:34:34.240 And if she
00:34:34.660 accepted, that
00:34:37.480 would be good
00:34:37.980 for everybody
00:34:38.480 because it
00:34:38.840 would put a
00:34:39.400 fear in any
00:34:40.420 potential cheaters.
00:34:42.420 So you want
00:34:42.920 the cheaters to
00:34:43.960 think that their
00:34:45.020 personal risk of
00:34:46.400 jail is higher
00:34:48.200 than they think
00:34:48.820 it is in
00:34:50.180 hypothetically
00:34:51.400 should they
00:34:52.000 exist, you
00:34:53.180 want them to
00:34:53.560 think that
00:34:53.940 their risk is
00:34:55.120 higher than
00:34:55.660 they think it
00:34:56.240 is right now.
00:34:57.600 And you
00:34:58.200 combine that
00:34:58.760 with large
00:34:59.340 whistleblower
00:35:00.000 awards.
00:35:01.800 So if you've
00:35:02.500 got lots of
00:35:02.980 threats, the
00:35:04.340 threats are
00:35:04.720 coming from
00:35:05.160 both sides,
00:35:06.060 Democrats and
00:35:06.660 Republicans.
00:35:07.480 They're just
00:35:08.020 raising the
00:35:09.060 threat level in
00:35:10.480 your mind, if
00:35:12.620 not in reality.
00:35:13.520 and the
00:35:14.520 whistleblowers are 1.00
00:35:15.300 there so that
00:35:16.120 you know your
00:35:17.340 cohort is going
00:35:18.280 to, your
00:35:18.700 co-worker is
00:35:19.440 going to turn
00:35:19.840 you in, that's
00:35:21.300 a pretty good
00:35:22.080 place to be.
00:35:25.300 However, I'm
00:35:26.080 going to add a
00:35:26.600 new wrinkle to
00:35:27.240 it.
00:35:29.200 This is the
00:35:30.000 price for a
00:35:30.820 peaceful transfer
00:35:31.740 of power.
00:35:33.680 If you give
00:35:34.660 me a
00:35:35.620 President Harris
00:35:36.380 who says,
00:35:37.900 look, here's
00:35:38.760 the deal.
00:35:39.300 I know there
00:35:39.840 have been
00:35:40.080 accusations of
00:35:40.960 rigging, we
00:35:42.060 can't have
00:35:42.580 that.
00:35:43.340 I will join
00:35:44.320 with President
00:35:44.960 Trump in
00:35:45.760 telling you that
00:35:46.480 if anybody
00:35:47.240 rigs this
00:35:47.820 thing, we're
00:35:48.720 going to hunt
00:35:49.220 you down and
00:35:49.960 put you in
00:35:50.560 freaking jail.
00:35:51.680 I don't care
00:35:52.260 if you're a
00:35:52.720 Democrat, I
00:35:53.480 don't care if
00:35:54.000 you rigged it
00:35:55.460 in favor of
00:35:56.080 me, we're
00:35:57.380 going to hunt
00:35:57.680 you down
00:35:58.160 because that
00:35:59.100 can't be the
00:36:00.020 case.
00:36:01.860 Now, you
00:36:03.300 give me that
00:36:04.080 and I can
00:36:05.600 guarantee you a
00:36:06.460 peaceful transfer
00:36:07.260 of power.
00:36:08.800 Claudia was
00:36:09.360 leaving for her
00:36:09.980 pickleball
00:36:10.360 tournament.
00:36:10.740 I've been
00:36:11.160 visualizing my
00:36:11.960 match all
00:36:12.620 week.
00:36:13.500 She was so
00:36:14.020 focused on
00:36:14.520 visualizing that
00:36:15.420 she didn't see
00:36:16.000 the column behind
00:36:16.680 her car on her
00:36:17.580 backhand side.
00:36:19.420 Good thing
00:36:20.120 Claudia's with
00:36:20.740 Intact, the
00:36:21.560 insurer with the
00:36:22.340 largest network of
00:36:23.220 auto service centers
00:36:24.040 in the country.
00:36:25.140 Everything was
00:36:25.680 taken care of
00:36:26.320 under one roof
00:36:27.060 and she was on
00:36:27.740 her way in a 0.65
00:36:28.200 rental car in
00:36:28.960 no time.
00:36:29.580 I made it to
00:36:30.320 my tournament
00:36:30.940 and lost in
00:36:32.140 the first round.
00:36:33.040 But you got
00:36:33.880 there on time.
00:36:34.900 Intact Insurance,
00:36:36.080 your auto service
00:36:36.840 ace.
00:36:37.520 Certain conditions
00:36:38.060 apply.
00:36:39.580 Would you
00:36:40.140 agree?
00:36:40.740 If you tell
00:36:42.900 me that the
00:36:43.420 Democrats really,
00:36:44.760 really are
00:36:45.240 serious about
00:36:46.060 getting rid of
00:36:47.080 election cheating,
00:36:48.540 I will also
00:36:49.920 guarantee that
00:36:50.760 there will be no
00:36:51.300 crowd at the
00:36:51.940 Capitol if Trump
00:36:52.700 loses.
00:36:52.960 But you got to
00:36:55.100 sell it.
00:36:56.560 You got to make me
00:36:57.780 think you mean it
00:36:58.620 and you got to
00:36:59.780 make sure that
00:37:00.380 you're actually
00:37:00.800 looking for those
00:37:01.560 bad guys if they
00:37:02.600 exist, right?
00:37:03.380 There are going to
00:37:03.680 be claims of it
00:37:04.480 no matter what.
00:37:05.060 So you've got to
00:37:06.740 really be serious
00:37:07.880 about them.
00:37:08.780 Here's what I'd
00:37:09.380 love.
00:37:10.700 To pick an
00:37:11.680 independent group
00:37:13.200 to investigate
00:37:14.340 election claims
00:37:15.400 even before the
00:37:16.840 election.
00:37:18.740 Now suppose
00:37:19.460 Harris came out
00:37:20.420 and said,
00:37:20.840 look, Donald
00:37:21.440 Trump,
00:37:22.620 you know,
00:37:23.300 we want to make
00:37:23.980 sure that everybody
00:37:24.880 thinks the election
00:37:25.680 was good.
00:37:26.860 Will you join
00:37:27.640 with me in
00:37:29.080 picking a
00:37:29.640 bipartisan group
00:37:30.660 that will
00:37:31.060 definitely look
00:37:31.880 into every claim
00:37:32.980 and they'll do
00:37:33.900 it right away
00:37:34.560 with full
00:37:35.780 authorization?
00:37:37.080 Maybe I can get
00:37:37.700 Biden to agree
00:37:38.700 with this.
00:37:39.840 And we're going
00:37:41.360 to make sure
00:37:41.820 that we put
00:37:42.400 maximum legal,
00:37:44.180 legal,
00:37:45.460 legal attention
00:37:47.320 on stopping
00:37:48.260 cheating.
00:37:49.120 Will that be
00:37:49.960 enough for you,
00:37:50.980 President Trump,
00:37:52.180 to guarantee that
00:37:53.080 there will not be
00:37:53.680 any riot at the
00:37:55.340 Capitol?
00:37:56.360 Well, Trump would
00:37:57.020 probably not guarantee
00:37:57.780 anything because
00:37:58.480 that's a bad idea.
00:37:59.880 Just guaranteeing
00:38:00.900 anything is a bad
00:38:01.580 idea.
00:38:01.980 It's just bad
00:38:02.440 strategy.
00:38:03.040 So we might
00:38:03.400 not do it.
00:38:04.260 But I can imagine
00:38:05.300 I would be
00:38:05.960 completely satisfied
00:38:06.780 if they sold
00:38:09.020 to me that they
00:38:10.080 were serious
00:38:10.600 about ending
00:38:11.240 cheating.
00:38:12.480 I'll take the
00:38:13.980 result as a
00:38:16.540 result.
00:38:17.560 Short of that,
00:38:19.160 it looks like
00:38:20.220 you're trying to
00:38:20.680 cheat.
00:38:22.220 So if you're
00:38:23.060 doing everything
00:38:23.560 you can to look
00:38:24.440 like you're trying
00:38:25.020 to cheat,
00:38:25.920 as in resisting
00:38:26.980 asking for ID
00:38:28.540 and resisting the
00:38:30.200 idea that illegals
00:38:31.320 should not vote
00:38:32.120 and letting
00:38:32.980 people in the
00:38:33.540 country and
00:38:34.060 giving them
00:38:34.600 ballots and
00:38:35.340 registering them
00:38:36.180 with your NGOs,
00:38:36.980 if you're doing
00:38:37.980 that stuff,
00:38:38.900 you're really
00:38:39.940 asking for
00:38:40.940 a little bit
00:38:44.180 of trespassing
00:38:44.920 in the Capitol.
00:38:45.500 If you're going
00:38:47.160 to beg for
00:38:47.920 a revolution,
00:38:49.300 I don't think
00:38:51.220 you should
00:38:51.540 complain about
00:38:52.120 getting one.
00:38:53.200 And right now
00:38:53.580 they're begging
00:38:54.020 for it.
00:38:54.680 They're doing
00:38:55.000 everything that
00:38:55.800 would decrease
00:38:57.180 your confidence
00:38:57.880 in the result.
00:38:59.180 So if you want
00:38:59.840 to go the other
00:39:00.300 way and increase
00:39:01.220 my confidence
00:39:01.900 in the result,
00:39:03.280 I can largely
00:39:04.220 guarantee that
00:39:06.860 Republicans will be 0.92
00:39:07.820 swayed by that.
00:39:08.640 But it's got to
00:39:09.160 be serious.
00:39:09.960 It's got to be
00:39:10.460 real.
00:39:11.140 And I don't see
00:39:11.840 any movement in
00:39:12.640 that direction at
00:39:13.300 all.
00:39:13.460 Anyway,
00:39:16.980 here's a update
00:39:17.980 on the Trump
00:39:18.660 pirate ship,
00:39:19.540 as I call it.
00:39:20.600 The group of
00:39:21.460 people who you
00:39:22.360 would not expect
00:39:23.060 to be all on
00:39:23.680 the same ship
00:39:24.300 and maybe people
00:39:26.540 who don't
00:39:28.140 always conform
00:39:28.900 to the expected
00:39:30.020 norms.
00:39:31.360 I call them
00:39:31.920 pirates because
00:39:32.560 it's fun,
00:39:33.320 not because
00:39:34.160 they're dangerous.
00:39:35.300 They're just
00:39:35.740 fun, fun
00:39:36.620 pirates.
00:39:38.200 And Trump
00:39:39.680 was reported
00:39:40.420 looking at
00:39:41.460 putting Elon
00:39:42.680 Musk in charge 1.00
00:39:43.540 of what
00:39:44.440 they're calling
00:39:44.840 auditing federal
00:39:45.760 agencies to
00:39:47.280 look for things
00:39:48.000 to cut.
00:39:49.580 And Elon
00:39:50.400 Musk said
00:39:51.000 about that
00:39:51.560 report,
00:39:52.260 quote,
00:39:52.580 I can't wait.
00:39:54.320 There's a lot
00:39:54.920 of waste and
00:39:55.380 needless regulations
00:39:56.200 in government
00:39:56.760 that needs to
00:39:57.540 go.
00:39:59.920 It looks like
00:40:01.120 this is real.
00:40:03.260 Apparently,
00:40:04.060 both Trump
00:40:04.760 and Elon
00:40:05.280 Musk are 1.00
00:40:05.840 completely on
00:40:06.620 board.
00:40:07.040 If Trump
00:40:07.380 gets elected,
00:40:08.740 that Musk
00:40:09.220 will get the
00:40:09.920 look at where
00:40:10.760 you can just
00:40:11.340 cut stuff.
00:40:12.680 this is
00:40:13.840 probably the
00:40:14.560 best thing
00:40:15.180 that's happening
00:40:15.860 anywhere about
00:40:16.620 anything.
00:40:18.240 Because in
00:40:19.360 my view,
00:40:21.100 let me tell
00:40:22.200 you something
00:40:22.560 from the
00:40:22.980 business world.
00:40:24.160 So in the
00:40:24.620 90s or so,
00:40:25.420 there was this
00:40:25.840 idea that
00:40:26.600 business should
00:40:27.400 be re-engineered,
00:40:28.820 not tweaked.
00:40:30.720 Now, what that
00:40:31.260 meant was,
00:40:31.920 instead of
00:40:32.600 continuously
00:40:33.380 improving things
00:40:34.560 the way they
00:40:35.000 are,
00:40:35.780 sometimes the
00:40:36.500 world has
00:40:37.060 changed so
00:40:37.640 much,
00:40:38.620 or your
00:40:39.020 company has
00:40:39.540 drifted so
00:40:40.280 much without
00:40:41.140 your intention,
00:40:42.560 that you
00:40:42.840 really have
00:40:43.320 to almost
00:40:44.100 treat it
00:40:44.480 like you're
00:40:44.820 starting over.
00:40:46.240 So the idea
00:40:46.780 of re-engineering
00:40:47.640 was not just
00:40:48.360 tweaking what
00:40:49.060 you have,
00:40:49.920 but saying,
00:40:50.420 okay, what if
00:40:51.000 we didn't have
00:40:51.460 anything,
00:40:52.640 and we had a
00:40:53.160 chance to build
00:40:53.760 the thing,
00:40:54.240 what would it
00:40:54.680 look like?
00:40:55.260 So that's
00:40:55.720 re-engineering,
00:40:56.640 that's rethinking
00:40:57.340 it from the
00:40:57.880 ground up.
00:40:58.980 If you needed
00:40:59.780 to do that
00:41:00.340 to our
00:41:00.660 government,
00:41:01.840 and I would
00:41:02.340 argue that's
00:41:02.980 exactly what
00:41:04.200 we do need,
00:41:05.340 what skill
00:41:06.360 needs to be
00:41:08.000 brought to it?
00:41:08.600 Do you need
00:41:10.020 a lawyer?
00:41:11.760 Nope.
00:41:13.140 Do you need
00:41:14.100 a historian?
00:41:16.640 Nope.
00:41:18.220 Do you need
00:41:19.620 a finance
00:41:20.720 person?
00:41:21.760 Because it's
00:41:22.400 going to be
00:41:22.680 about money.
00:41:23.840 Nope.
00:41:25.780 There is one
00:41:26.840 skill that you
00:41:27.580 need, and it's
00:41:28.460 engineering,
00:41:29.440 because it's
00:41:30.500 literally re-engineering,
00:41:31.860 because the
00:41:32.780 government can be
00:41:33.780 thought of as a
00:41:34.560 machine.
00:41:35.380 It's got moving
00:41:36.500 parts.
00:41:36.960 This part has
00:41:38.460 too many
00:41:38.800 moving parts.
00:41:39.700 Maybe we
00:41:40.100 could do this
00:41:40.640 with three
00:41:41.000 moving parts
00:41:41.700 instead of
00:41:42.220 a hundred.
00:41:43.380 This one is
00:41:44.260 an unnecessary
00:41:44.860 feature.
00:41:46.000 It's causing
00:41:46.800 us trouble.
00:41:47.500 Why don't we
00:41:47.980 just remove
00:41:48.500 the feature?
00:41:49.340 It's an
00:41:49.920 engineering
00:41:50.500 task.
00:41:52.960 Just consider
00:41:53.900 this thought
00:41:55.020 for a moment.
00:41:56.540 If you're not
00:41:57.360 feeling enough
00:41:57.900 optimism lately,
00:41:59.540 just hold
00:42:00.560 this in your
00:42:01.000 mind.
00:42:02.980 The biggest
00:42:04.020 risk to
00:42:05.300 America is
00:42:06.820 that we
00:42:07.120 don't
00:42:07.440 re-engineer
00:42:08.180 and that
00:42:09.100 we just
00:42:09.400 keep tweaking
00:42:09.960 things and
00:42:10.620 we become
00:42:11.240 bloated and
00:42:12.100 divided and
00:42:13.440 overspend and
00:42:14.460 just kill
00:42:15.020 ourselves with
00:42:15.740 just drifting
00:42:17.240 in one
00:42:17.640 direction.
00:42:18.560 It is our
00:42:19.140 biggest risk.
00:42:22.120 I could argue
00:42:23.380 it's what
00:42:23.940 destroyed almost
00:42:25.060 every civilization
00:42:25.920 in the past,
00:42:26.820 unless there
00:42:27.220 was a natural
00:42:27.760 disaster,
00:42:29.160 that they
00:42:30.400 needed to
00:42:30.840 stop doing
00:42:31.340 what they
00:42:31.620 were doing
00:42:31.940 and do a
00:42:32.360 whole new
00:42:32.660 thing or
00:42:33.100 else they
00:42:33.420 were all
00:42:34.260 going to
00:42:34.540 die.
00:42:35.300 We're in
00:42:36.040 that situation.
00:42:37.600 We're in
00:42:38.240 the existential
00:42:38.980 risk.
00:42:40.140 Our current
00:42:40.620 system will
00:42:41.280 kill us
00:42:41.700 all.
00:42:43.020 Really.
00:42:43.840 Like,
00:42:44.160 actually,
00:42:44.660 really.
00:42:45.240 If we just
00:42:45.920 keep doing
00:42:46.360 what we're
00:42:46.740 doing,
00:42:47.000 we will
00:42:47.360 die.
00:42:48.040 We will
00:42:48.400 all be
00:42:48.840 dead.
00:42:49.920 And the
00:42:50.460 only way
00:42:50.760 to fix
00:42:51.120 it is to
00:42:51.820 somewhat
00:42:52.600 radically
00:42:53.200 change how
00:42:54.020 we operate
00:42:54.620 as a
00:42:55.000 country.
00:42:55.380 In other
00:42:55.620 words,
00:42:56.460 replace the
00:42:57.040 machine.
00:42:58.300 But you
00:42:58.820 need to
00:42:59.120 keep the
00:42:59.420 Constitution.
00:43:00.780 You just
00:43:01.120 want to
00:43:01.520 keep the
00:43:02.340 machinery,
00:43:02.900 right?
00:43:03.160 So you
00:43:03.600 want to
00:43:03.820 keep the
00:43:04.120 rules of
00:43:04.520 the road.
00:43:05.300 So you
00:43:06.220 don't want
00:43:06.500 to change
00:43:07.520 the fact
00:43:07.960 that vehicles
00:43:08.940 need to
00:43:09.420 go under
00:43:10.100 the speed
00:43:10.500 limit and
00:43:11.000 stay on
00:43:11.320 the road
00:43:11.640 and stuff.
00:43:12.140 That's like
00:43:12.480 the Constitution.
00:43:13.740 But the car
00:43:14.460 itself needs
00:43:16.020 to be
00:43:16.280 completely
00:43:16.600 redesigned.
00:43:17.260 now, if I
00:43:19.180 said to
00:43:19.540 you, pick
00:43:20.620 the one
00:43:21.000 person on
00:43:21.720 the entire
00:43:22.280 planet that
00:43:24.140 you would
00:43:24.420 want to
00:43:24.840 re-engineer
00:43:25.760 anything,
00:43:27.560 whether it's
00:43:28.500 a government
00:43:28.940 or a car
00:43:29.520 or a
00:43:29.820 spaceship,
00:43:31.380 it's
00:43:32.060 Musk.
00:43:33.220 It's
00:43:33.820 Musk all 1.00
00:43:34.340 day long,
00:43:35.340 all day
00:43:36.320 long.
00:43:37.920 Try to
00:43:38.640 give me the
00:43:39.380 second best
00:43:40.040 person for
00:43:40.660 that.
00:43:42.120 Good luck.
00:43:43.500 Who's the
00:43:44.160 second best
00:43:44.940 person for
00:43:45.560 that job?
00:43:46.760 You can't
00:43:47.160 even come
00:43:47.520 up with
00:43:47.820 one.
00:43:49.640 You can
00:43:51.260 think of
00:43:51.620 lots of
00:43:51.980 smart people,
00:43:52.980 but you
00:43:53.760 can't think
00:43:54.240 of anybody
00:43:54.680 smart enough
00:43:55.500 who would
00:43:56.280 be willing
00:43:56.740 to take
00:43:57.240 the level
00:43:57.820 of pain
00:43:58.620 that would
00:44:00.940 be required
00:44:01.480 to get it
00:44:01.920 done right.
00:44:02.980 The thing
00:44:03.620 that Elon
00:44:04.060 brings to
00:44:04.740 every situation
00:44:05.700 is, you
00:44:07.020 think that a
00:44:07.600 level of
00:44:08.100 pain will
00:44:08.540 stop me?
00:44:10.280 Well, watch
00:44:10.860 this.
00:44:12.440 Pain doesn't
00:44:13.080 stop him.
00:44:14.780 Threats
00:44:15.100 don't stop
00:44:15.680 him.
00:44:16.620 He's got
00:44:17.080 the threat
00:44:17.440 of jail
00:44:17.900 right now.
00:44:18.960 Doesn't
00:44:19.260 stop him.
00:44:20.920 It's the
00:44:21.600 only person
00:44:22.360 who could
00:44:22.660 do this.
00:44:24.000 And we're
00:44:24.280 lucky enough
00:44:24.880 that that
00:44:25.260 person not
00:44:25.840 only is
00:44:26.420 willing to
00:44:26.880 do it,
00:44:27.180 but enthusiastic
00:44:27.780 about it.
00:44:30.600 Do you
00:44:31.080 know how
00:44:31.300 lucky that
00:44:31.820 is?
00:44:33.800 I mean,
00:44:34.060 just think
00:44:34.360 about how
00:44:34.700 lucky that
00:44:35.160 is.
00:44:35.680 Yeah.
00:44:36.000 And he
00:44:36.460 would have
00:44:36.840 a J.D.
00:44:37.500 Vance and
00:44:37.980 a Vivek.
00:44:39.660 He would
00:44:40.220 have, you
00:44:40.820 know,
00:44:40.960 brilliant
00:44:41.280 people,
00:44:42.220 you know,
00:44:43.000 on his
00:44:43.900 side to
00:44:44.240 help.
00:44:45.100 This is
00:44:46.540 really,
00:44:47.120 really,
00:44:47.480 really
00:44:47.980 lucky.
00:44:49.700 Elon Musk
00:44:50.300 could have
00:44:50.860 easily been
00:44:51.720 Australian.
00:44:55.200 Right?
00:44:55.400 He could
00:44:55.760 have easily
00:44:56.220 been, you
00:44:57.760 know, if
00:44:58.060 we're all
00:44:58.420 reincarnated,
00:44:59.700 Chinese.
00:45:01.940 But we
00:45:02.600 got him.
00:45:03.580 The number
00:45:04.380 one person
00:45:05.060 to do the
00:45:05.820 number one
00:45:06.300 most important
00:45:06.940 thing.
00:45:08.480 I feel
00:45:09.120 pretty good
00:45:09.520 about it.
00:45:10.480 But only if
00:45:11.300 Trump gets
00:45:11.700 elected.
00:45:12.040 there's a
00:45:13.980 video that
00:45:14.580 I can't
00:45:14.920 believe is
00:45:15.340 true of,
00:45:16.620 it doesn't
00:45:17.120 say what
00:45:17.520 city it
00:45:17.920 is,
00:45:18.140 but some
00:45:18.540 sanctuary
00:45:19.480 city in
00:45:20.100 the United
00:45:20.420 States
00:45:20.820 showed a
00:45:21.660 conversation
00:45:22.240 of some
00:45:22.740 people in
00:45:23.180 the hallway.
00:45:23.700 Some
00:45:23.860 citizens were
00:45:24.560 asking the
00:45:25.320 police to
00:45:26.380 arrest somebody
00:45:27.560 in the
00:45:27.880 apartment
00:45:28.220 building who
00:45:29.620 had committed
00:45:30.180 some serious
00:45:30.980 crime, and
00:45:32.100 they were
00:45:32.360 also undocumented.
00:45:34.000 And the
00:45:34.240 police said
00:45:34.760 that they
00:45:35.680 couldn't call
00:45:36.220 ICE and have
00:45:36.980 them deported
00:45:37.540 because it's
00:45:38.060 a sanctuary
00:45:38.540 city.
00:45:39.720 And then
00:45:40.400 the citizens
00:45:40.920 said, okay,
00:45:41.860 well, you
00:45:42.800 can't do
00:45:43.040 that, but
00:45:44.120 you can't
00:45:44.680 arrest them
00:45:45.160 because they
00:45:45.640 did a terrible
00:45:46.180 crime.
00:45:47.280 It's, you
00:45:47.980 know, obviously
00:45:48.540 they did a
00:45:48.920 terrible crime.
00:45:50.380 And the
00:45:51.040 police officer
00:45:51.720 said, no,
00:45:53.480 I can't
00:45:53.900 arrest them
00:45:54.460 because it's
00:45:55.100 a sanctuary
00:45:55.580 city.
00:45:56.740 And then the
00:45:57.640 citizens thinking
00:45:58.480 they weren't
00:45:58.900 quite understanding,
00:46:00.160 or maybe the
00:46:00.880 police officer
00:46:01.460 wasn't as
00:46:01.980 understanding,
00:46:02.600 they clarified,
00:46:03.840 no, we know
00:46:04.620 that you can't
00:46:05.180 call ICE and
00:46:06.140 have them
00:46:06.440 deported.
00:46:07.540 But we're
00:46:07.960 saying they've
00:46:08.440 committed a
00:46:08.980 massive crime
00:46:10.380 in the United
00:46:10.840 States, so
00:46:12.480 you can arrest
00:46:13.120 them for the
00:46:13.460 crime they did
00:46:13.980 in the United
00:46:14.360 States.
00:46:15.340 And the
00:46:15.900 police officer
00:46:16.520 said, no,
00:46:18.460 I cannot
00:46:19.120 arrest them
00:46:20.140 for a crime
00:46:21.280 they did in
00:46:21.820 the United
00:46:22.220 States because
00:46:23.620 we're a
00:46:24.120 sanctuary city.
00:46:25.420 There was
00:46:26.180 somebody who
00:46:26.860 was accused
00:46:27.440 of like a
00:46:27.920 double murder
00:46:28.520 or something,
00:46:29.440 said I
00:46:29.820 couldn't arrest
00:46:30.480 them because
00:46:31.080 we're a
00:46:31.440 sanctuary city.
00:46:32.860 And he
00:46:33.140 said it
00:46:33.500 clearly and
00:46:34.540 multiple times.
00:46:35.780 And I said
00:46:36.460 to myself,
00:46:36.980 is that
00:46:38.120 real?
00:46:39.900 So I'm
00:46:40.600 coming down
00:46:41.140 on, I
00:46:41.740 don't think
00:46:42.040 it's real.
00:46:43.800 It's a little
00:46:44.440 too on the
00:46:44.880 nose.
00:46:46.480 And it
00:46:47.000 didn't show
00:46:47.320 the city.
00:46:48.280 And it
00:46:48.840 was in
00:46:49.140 shadows so
00:46:49.820 you couldn't
00:46:50.080 see the
00:46:50.520 lips moving.
00:46:52.520 So it
00:46:54.520 might be
00:46:54.920 real.
00:46:55.820 So I have
00:46:56.680 great curiosity
00:46:57.580 about it.
00:46:58.440 But I'm not
00:46:59.160 going to tell
00:46:59.480 you that's
00:46:59.840 real.
00:47:00.100 I think
00:47:01.180 unfortunately
00:47:01.840 it's 2024
00:47:03.260 and you
00:47:05.020 see something
00:47:05.540 where you
00:47:05.900 can't see
00:47:06.380 lips moving
00:47:07.220 and you
00:47:07.540 don't know
00:47:07.880 the city
00:47:08.320 and you
00:47:08.640 don't know
00:47:08.980 where the
00:47:09.460 video came
00:47:09.960 from.
00:47:10.800 Just
00:47:11.280 automatically
00:47:12.040 you've got
00:47:12.480 to put a
00:47:12.900 pin in
00:47:14.060 that one
00:47:14.420 and say
00:47:15.040 we're going
00:47:15.520 to wait
00:47:15.760 on this
00:47:16.060 one.
00:47:17.500 Likewise,
00:47:18.440 this brings
00:47:19.080 me to
00:47:19.520 the story
00:47:21.840 of the
00:47:22.160 Venezuelan
00:47:22.920 gangs who 0.99
00:47:23.440 were taking
00:47:23.800 over
00:47:24.080 apartments
00:47:24.680 in
00:47:25.400 Colorado.
00:47:26.780 I can't
00:47:27.600 tell if
00:47:27.920 that's
00:47:28.160 true.
00:47:29.660 So
00:47:29.980 apparently
00:47:30.380 there's a
00:47:30.920 discussion
00:47:31.420 where some
00:47:32.500 people are
00:47:32.860 saying it's
00:47:33.220 definitely
00:47:33.520 true.
00:47:34.340 Of course
00:47:34.740 it's true.
00:47:35.720 And other
00:47:36.420 people are
00:47:36.820 saying but
00:47:37.380 the police
00:47:37.780 can't find
00:47:38.280 them and
00:47:39.180 there's nobody
00:47:39.660 in any
00:47:40.020 apartment
00:47:40.360 who's
00:47:40.680 complaining.
00:47:42.780 Now that
00:47:43.180 can't both
00:47:43.900 be true.
00:47:45.120 Either
00:47:45.340 Venezuelan
00:47:45.980 gangs are 0.98
00:47:46.460 literally taking
00:47:47.280 over apartment
00:47:47.900 buildings or
00:47:49.420 they're not.
00:47:51.800 And as of
00:47:52.960 this morning
00:47:53.540 I can't
00:47:55.100 tell.
00:47:55.600 There are
00:47:55.940 competing
00:47:56.320 stories and
00:47:57.040 I literally
00:47:57.620 can't tell if
00:47:58.520 Venezuelan
00:47:59.060 gangs are 0.98
00:47:59.500 taking over
00:47:59.960 apartment
00:48:00.320 buildings in
00:48:00.920 the United
00:48:01.200 States.
00:48:02.620 Now you
00:48:03.280 might think
00:48:03.700 you know
00:48:04.140 but it's
00:48:04.980 because you
00:48:05.440 saw one
00:48:05.860 news story.
00:48:07.780 If you
00:48:08.360 see the
00:48:08.700 other ones
00:48:09.240 maybe you
00:48:10.320 change your
00:48:10.700 mind.
00:48:11.740 I've seen
00:48:12.400 both and
00:48:13.880 I have no
00:48:14.700 signal that
00:48:15.380 would tell me
00:48:15.820 which one's
00:48:16.300 real because
00:48:17.120 there's no
00:48:17.440 video of it.
00:48:19.620 Let's put it
00:48:20.280 this way.
00:48:21.820 You show me
00:48:22.620 a video
00:48:23.140 of some
00:48:24.520 armed
00:48:24.940 Venezuelans
00:48:26.100 that was
00:48:26.960 taken recently
00:48:27.720 and everybody
00:48:28.540 knows where
00:48:29.140 it is and
00:48:29.780 the person
00:48:30.240 who gives
00:48:31.080 you the
00:48:31.340 video identifies
00:48:32.220 themselves.
00:48:33.840 Maybe.
00:48:35.200 Maybe I'll
00:48:35.880 believe that.
00:48:37.280 And I don't
00:48:37.860 believe it's
00:48:38.520 impossible.
00:48:40.320 And maybe
00:48:40.600 there's some
00:48:41.040 in-between
00:48:42.480 situation that
00:48:43.460 people are
00:48:43.980 exaggerating
00:48:44.700 whichever way
00:48:45.420 they want
00:48:45.780 to.
00:48:47.080 But think
00:48:48.820 about the
00:48:49.280 fact.
00:48:49.700 just think
00:48:51.280 about the
00:48:51.700 fact that
00:48:52.500 the news
00:48:53.320 in America
00:48:54.660 is so
00:48:55.240 untrustworthy
00:48:56.100 I can't
00:48:57.220 tell if
00:48:57.760 Venezuelan
00:48:58.360 gangs are 0.98
00:48:58.800 taking over
00:48:59.300 apartment
00:48:59.700 buildings.
00:49:00.920 I don't
00:49:01.280 have a way
00:49:01.680 to know.
00:49:03.160 That's
00:49:03.520 pretty bad.
00:49:07.080 Anyway,
00:49:07.960 Elon Musk
00:49:08.500 continues to be
00:49:09.380 controversial.
00:49:10.240 He posted,
00:49:11.960 the reason the
00:49:12.440 Democrat Party
00:49:13.060 is so soft
00:49:13.640 on criminals
00:49:14.300 is that
00:49:14.720 the criminals
00:49:16.440 overwhelmingly
00:49:17.180 vote Democrat
00:49:18.020 and they
00:49:19.040 don't want
00:49:19.360 to offend
00:49:19.640 their customers.
00:49:21.640 And he
00:49:22.260 says Democrat
00:49:22.900 Party is
00:49:23.480 literally the
00:49:24.080 party of
00:49:24.480 criminals.
00:49:27.720 Well, I
00:49:28.840 think that's
00:49:29.280 going too
00:49:29.720 far.
00:49:31.120 Now, I
00:49:31.460 usually support
00:49:32.280 Elon Musk's
00:49:33.320 opinions because
00:49:34.100 I agree with
00:49:34.640 him, but this
00:49:35.140 is too far.
00:49:36.460 I don't think
00:49:37.420 you can say
00:49:37.880 that the
00:49:38.260 Democrat Party
00:49:39.100 is literally
00:49:40.520 the party
00:49:41.220 of criminals.
00:49:43.100 Not literally,
00:49:44.860 it's not
00:49:45.220 literally the
00:49:45.840 party.
00:49:46.420 It would be
00:49:47.840 more accurate
00:49:48.260 to say it's
00:49:48.720 the party
00:49:49.040 of criminals
00:49:49.800 plus the
00:49:50.920 mentally ill
00:49:51.580 women who 0.99
00:49:52.060 love the
00:49:52.420 criminals.
00:49:54.080 So if you
00:49:54.860 leave out the
00:49:55.380 mentally ill
00:49:55.940 women who 0.99
00:49:57.780 love the
00:49:58.160 criminals, 0.62
00:49:59.260 it just
00:50:00.160 doesn't sound
00:50:00.660 honest to
00:50:01.180 me.
00:50:02.980 So Elon,
00:50:04.180 didn't go
00:50:04.840 far enough.
00:50:05.640 You've got to
00:50:05.880 talk about the
00:50:06.480 women who 0.99
00:50:07.000 love those
00:50:07.520 criminals and
00:50:08.900 worship them.
00:50:11.260 But I saw
00:50:12.620 somebody else
00:50:13.160 saying that
00:50:13.740 Musk was
00:50:14.560 ruining his
00:50:15.260 brand,
00:50:16.380 Tesla.
00:50:17.380 And I
00:50:17.660 have to
00:50:18.020 admit, I
00:50:20.100 am concerned
00:50:21.040 that Elon
00:50:23.480 Musk's 0.98
00:50:24.260 political stuff
00:50:25.340 will sour
00:50:26.320 some number
00:50:26.900 of people
00:50:27.280 from buying
00:50:27.740 Teslas.
00:50:28.640 I don't
00:50:29.160 know if
00:50:29.440 we've seen
00:50:29.940 it yet.
00:50:31.780 But I
00:50:32.460 don't know
00:50:32.740 how it
00:50:33.020 doesn't
00:50:33.380 happen.
00:50:34.460 Because people
00:50:35.500 are pretty
00:50:35.900 prickly about
00:50:36.580 their politics
00:50:37.200 and their
00:50:37.580 cars.
00:50:37.900 cars and
00:50:38.340 so I
00:50:41.300 should tell
00:50:41.720 you that I
00:50:42.280 do own
00:50:43.620 stock in
00:50:44.400 Tesla.
00:50:45.460 So I'm
00:50:45.820 not being
00:50:46.880 unbiased.
00:50:47.580 I'm totally
00:50:48.540 biased in
00:50:50.060 favor of
00:50:50.520 Tesla.
00:50:50.820 but my
00:50:53.160 investment in
00:50:53.820 Tesla has
00:50:54.320 less to do
00:50:54.880 with cars
00:50:55.340 and more
00:50:55.800 to do
00:50:56.080 with the
00:50:56.320 robots.
00:50:58.080 One
00:50:58.560 possibility
00:50:59.200 is that the
00:51:00.720 reason we
00:51:01.140 don't understand
00:51:01.920 why Elon
00:51:02.480 Musk could 0.99
00:51:03.500 take such a
00:51:04.200 risk with
00:51:04.940 the stock
00:51:05.660 price of
00:51:06.120 Tesla is
00:51:07.720 that he
00:51:08.720 told us
00:51:09.180 exactly what's
00:51:09.900 going on.
00:51:10.840 That robots
00:51:11.800 are going to
00:51:12.160 be maybe 20
00:51:13.320 times bigger
00:51:13.920 than cars and
00:51:15.540 Tesla is going
00:51:16.260 to be a robot
00:51:16.840 company and
00:51:17.760 they're going to
00:51:18.040 be rolling them
00:51:18.680 out in a
00:51:19.200 year or so.
00:51:20.160 It might not
00:51:21.200 matter to him
00:51:21.780 what happens
00:51:22.240 with cars.
00:51:23.840 It might be
00:51:24.720 the smallest
00:51:25.260 part of his
00:51:25.820 business in
00:51:26.460 less than a
00:51:26.980 year.
00:51:27.920 So maybe he's
00:51:28.960 just ahead of
00:51:29.540 us and he
00:51:30.440 knows he can
00:51:31.220 say what he
00:51:32.180 wants to say
00:51:32.800 and promote
00:51:34.100 free speech
00:51:34.900 and if
00:51:37.040 something happens
00:51:37.700 to the car
00:51:38.660 stock he'll
00:51:39.700 just make it
00:51:40.220 up with robots
00:51:40.980 and people
00:51:41.580 will want
00:51:41.940 robots because
00:51:42.740 it'll be the
00:51:43.180 best robot
00:51:43.800 and there you
00:51:46.080 go.
00:51:47.280 So who
00:51:47.600 knows?
00:51:47.880 He's
00:51:48.460 taking a
00:51:48.820 risk.

00:52:03.980 You're richer
00:52:04.440 than you think.
00:52:09.040 So Kamala
00:52:10.480 Harris has
00:52:11.060 come out
00:52:11.540 directly in
00:52:12.940 opposition of
00:52:13.700 freedom of
00:52:14.160 speech, which
00:52:16.220 doesn't sound
00:52:16.900 true, does it?
00:52:17.880 When I say
00:52:18.900 that, you're
00:52:19.340 going to say,
00:52:19.780 oh, that's
00:52:20.460 a, you know,
00:52:21.420 you're exaggerating
00:52:23.400 what she said.
00:52:25.600 Right?
00:52:26.820 But can we
00:52:27.680 agree that the
00:52:28.780 definition of
00:52:29.600 free speech is
00:52:31.300 that you can say
00:52:31.920 things other
00:52:32.440 people don't want
00:52:33.200 you to say?
00:52:34.860 That's the
00:52:35.440 definition.
00:52:36.320 The definition is
00:52:37.360 not that you can
00:52:37.980 say things everybody
00:52:38.820 likes to hear.
00:52:40.040 That has nothing
00:52:40.800 to do with free
00:52:41.440 speech.
00:52:42.460 Free speech is
00:52:43.220 specifically
00:52:44.360 limited to
00:52:46.900 things that
00:52:47.420 other people
00:52:47.940 really, really
00:52:48.680 don't want you
00:52:49.220 to say because
00:52:49.920 they think it's
00:52:50.420 dangerous or
00:52:51.160 whatever.
00:52:52.740 And Harris
00:52:53.160 says that
00:52:53.880 social media
00:52:55.380 has no
00:52:55.860 oversight or
00:52:56.440 regulation and
00:52:57.520 talks about
00:52:58.340 Musk and
00:52:58.880 says there
00:53:00.060 has to be a
00:53:00.640 responsibility to
00:53:01.700 understand their
00:53:02.360 power.
00:53:03.120 They're directly
00:53:04.060 speaking to
00:53:04.760 millions without
00:53:05.500 oversight or
00:53:06.240 regulation.
00:53:06.720 And then she
00:53:07.840 said of Musk,
00:53:08.900 quote, he has
00:53:09.880 lost his
00:53:10.480 privilege.
00:53:11.440 It should be
00:53:11.960 taken down.
00:53:14.080 What?
00:53:15.440 She thinks the
00:53:16.380 X platform
00:53:17.080 should be taken
00:53:17.740 down.
00:53:18.240 What should be
00:53:18.960 taken down?
00:53:20.360 You mean just
00:53:20.860 taken down a
00:53:21.640 notch or just
00:53:22.500 taken offline?
00:53:24.260 I mean, either
00:53:24.660 way, it's
00:53:25.060 terrible.
00:53:27.140 But if you say
00:53:28.220 that somebody's
00:53:28.780 lost their
00:53:29.360 privilege because
00:53:30.320 they don't
00:53:30.740 understand that
00:53:31.540 they should be
00:53:32.080 censoring the
00:53:32.740 way you want
00:53:33.280 them to censor
00:53:33.960 because you
00:53:34.420 don't like the
00:53:34.980 things they're
00:53:35.380 saying, I
00:53:36.680 would say that
00:53:37.320 is directly
00:53:38.080 opposed to
00:53:38.860 free speech.
00:53:40.400 Directly.
00:53:41.200 It doesn't feel
00:53:41.980 like an
00:53:42.260 interpretation to
00:53:43.140 me.
00:53:43.840 To me, it
00:53:44.260 feels like a
00:53:44.960 direct statement.
00:53:46.060 I do not
00:53:46.660 like freedom
00:53:47.720 of speech.
00:53:48.320 It's too
00:53:48.620 dangerous when
00:53:50.120 you boost it
00:53:50.960 by social
00:53:51.740 media.
00:53:52.420 And by the
00:53:52.780 way, it's
00:53:54.000 not a crazy
00:53:54.620 argument.
00:53:55.940 It's one I
00:53:56.720 disagree with.
00:53:58.240 Here's why
00:53:58.840 it's not crazy.
00:54:00.220 When the
00:54:00.840 Constitution was
00:54:01.700 written, social
00:54:02.880 media didn't
00:54:03.520 exist.
00:54:04.540 So if your
00:54:05.380 crazy neighbor
00:54:06.320 had some
00:54:06.740 crazy ideas,
00:54:08.240 he could
00:54:08.580 talk about
00:54:09.040 it all day
00:54:09.460 long.
00:54:09.780 It wasn't
00:54:10.060 going anywhere.
00:54:11.340 So he had
00:54:12.160 real free
00:54:12.720 speech.
00:54:13.660 He could
00:54:14.160 say whatever
00:54:14.640 he wanted
00:54:15.140 using the
00:54:15.900 best technology
00:54:16.780 of the day.
00:54:17.680 He could
00:54:18.160 write a
00:54:18.540 letter, one
00:54:20.320 letter.
00:54:21.460 So free
00:54:23.000 speech was
00:54:23.620 really easy
00:54:24.500 then because
00:54:25.760 it didn't
00:54:26.020 move the
00:54:26.380 needle, except
00:54:28.340 in the longest
00:54:30.080 timeline it
00:54:31.180 did.
00:54:32.040 But at the
00:54:32.680 moment, social
00:54:33.660 media is so
00:54:34.320 powerful it can
00:54:35.100 change the
00:54:35.580 needle overnight.
00:54:36.940 It can
00:54:37.300 turn the
00:54:38.560 least popular
00:54:40.200 candidate into
00:54:41.020 the most
00:54:41.400 popular candidate
00:54:42.280 and we
00:54:42.720 watched it.
00:54:44.120 If you
00:54:44.620 had the
00:54:44.920 news, the
00:54:46.180 news to
00:54:46.640 social media.
00:54:48.340 Now, does
00:54:49.480 she say the
00:54:50.000 same thing
00:54:50.400 about the
00:54:50.820 news?
00:54:53.320 Because
00:54:53.840 whatever you
00:54:54.340 say about
00:54:54.700 social media,
00:54:55.640 it's not
00:54:56.140 regulated, it
00:54:57.000 can say
00:54:57.320 whatever it
00:54:57.760 wants, it's
00:54:58.540 dangerous.
00:54:59.520 Wouldn't
00:54:59.840 they say the
00:55:00.400 same thing
00:55:00.860 about Fox
00:55:01.940 News and
00:55:02.680 Breitbart
00:55:03.200 and Just
00:55:04.580 the News
00:55:05.180 and Gateway
00:55:06.360 Pundit?
00:55:08.200 Doesn't it
00:55:08.940 come next?
00:55:10.300 They have
00:55:10.740 great responsibility.
00:55:12.400 If they have
00:55:12.800 misinformation, it's
00:55:14.040 dangerous.
00:55:15.760 You know, none
00:55:16.480 of this existed
00:55:17.220 during the
00:55:18.540 time of the
00:55:20.480 Revolutionary
00:55:21.220 War.
00:55:22.140 So, this is
00:55:24.240 the most
00:55:24.500 dangerous possible
00:55:25.520 thing you could
00:55:26.020 possibly think.
00:55:26.720 Michael
00:55:28.040 Schellenberger
00:55:28.640 goes further
00:55:30.800 and he says
00:55:31.320 in a post
00:55:31.740 today, people
00:55:32.320 think Brazil
00:55:33.260 style censorship
00:55:34.320 couldn't happen
00:55:35.680 here, but it
00:55:36.840 could.
00:55:37.820 Indeed, Kamala
00:55:38.400 Harris, Tim
00:55:38.860 Olson, Barack
00:55:39.580 Obama have
00:55:40.580 all called for
00:55:41.480 heavy-handed
00:55:42.120 government
00:55:42.620 censorship like
00:55:44.180 that of Brazil
00:55:44.920 and Europe,
00:55:45.920 complete with
00:55:46.520 banning disfavored
00:55:47.500 individuals across
00:55:48.620 platforms.
00:55:52.640 And he's
00:55:53.320 right.
00:55:53.900 I mean, he
00:55:54.640 backs it up with
00:55:55.440 examples, etc.
00:55:56.740 So, we're
00:55:58.940 actually at a
00:55:59.660 point where
00:56:00.140 freedom of
00:56:00.780 speech, in
00:56:02.520 my opinion,
00:56:03.260 could be the
00:56:03.840 only topic of
00:56:04.620 the election.
00:56:07.540 It seems to
00:56:08.540 me that Trump
00:56:09.460 is in an
00:56:10.160 unlosable
00:56:10.900 situation.
00:56:12.800 Because if he
00:56:13.600 starts hammering
00:56:14.320 on this freedom
00:56:14.960 of speech stuff,
00:56:16.420 and he does a
00:56:17.460 better job, which
00:56:18.280 he's not done so
00:56:19.040 far, on handling
00:56:20.300 that bodily
00:56:20.980 autonomy thing,
00:56:22.060 he has a
00:56:22.660 stronger argument
00:56:23.380 on bodily
00:56:23.960 autonomy by a
00:56:25.720 mile.
00:56:26.220 He just
00:56:26.940 has never
00:56:27.260 put it
00:56:27.620 together.
00:56:28.480 The minute
00:56:29.200 he puts
00:56:29.700 together that
00:56:30.380 bodily autonomy
00:56:31.260 argument, which
00:56:32.800 is, hey, I
00:56:33.580 took abortion
00:56:34.380 away from the
00:56:35.200 federal government
00:56:35.860 and away from
00:56:36.520 me.
00:56:36.940 I moved it
00:56:37.460 closer to you.
00:56:38.640 And there are
00:56:39.000 more women in 1.00
00:56:39.620 every state.
00:56:40.500 You women can 1.00
00:56:41.180 vote in any
00:56:41.820 bodily autonomy
00:56:42.600 law you want.
00:56:43.980 I don't oppose
00:56:44.620 that a bit.
00:56:46.060 And then say,
00:56:47.540 but I don't want
00:56:48.680 criminals to take
00:56:49.540 your bodily
00:56:50.060 autonomy.
00:56:50.720 I don't want
00:56:52.240 undocumented people
00:56:53.340 to take your
00:56:54.100 jobs.
00:56:55.900 Everything that
00:56:56.520 happens is your
00:56:57.220 bodily autonomy.
00:56:58.240 Can you walk
00:56:58.720 outside with
00:56:59.460 safety?
00:57:00.600 Can your
00:57:01.320 children go to
00:57:01.900 school safely?
00:57:03.860 It's all bodily
00:57:04.940 autonomy.
00:57:05.560 Everything the
00:57:06.040 government does
00:57:06.700 from the legal
00:57:08.040 system, the
00:57:08.740 Department of
00:57:09.280 Justice, but the
00:57:10.480 Democrats are
00:57:11.100 trying to take
00:57:11.940 Trump's bodily
00:57:12.740 autonomy away and
00:57:13.740 put him in
00:57:14.140 jail.
00:57:14.360 There is one
00:57:16.520 side that is
00:57:17.180 massively trying
00:57:18.260 to control your
00:57:19.020 bodily autonomy.
00:57:20.460 They're going to
00:57:20.760 make sure you
00:57:21.240 don't have a
00:57:21.720 gun, etc.
00:57:23.040 The only
00:57:24.140 argument they
00:57:24.800 have, the
00:57:25.880 only argument
00:57:26.740 is on
00:57:28.140 reproductive
00:57:28.780 rights.
00:57:30.420 And Trump
00:57:31.180 has not done
00:57:32.000 a good job
00:57:32.680 in simply
00:57:34.600 explaining that
00:57:35.400 they do have
00:57:35.940 everything they
00:57:36.520 want and he's
00:57:37.100 not the one
00:57:37.500 opposing any
00:57:38.080 of it.
00:57:39.880 They have
00:57:40.500 everything they
00:57:41.020 want in terms
00:57:41.640 of they have
00:57:42.580 the political
00:57:43.100 power to vote
00:57:44.060 in any state
00:57:45.180 law that they
00:57:45.720 want if the
00:57:46.600 women are 1.00
00:57:47.300 largely on the
00:57:48.080 same team.
00:57:48.820 They just have
00:57:49.480 to be on the
00:57:49.840 same side.
00:57:51.140 So convince the
00:57:51.920 women what you 1.00
00:57:52.480 want, not
00:57:53.620 Trump.
00:57:54.060 He's out of
00:57:54.420 the game.
00:57:56.440 And by the
00:57:57.440 way, that
00:57:57.840 sentence is
00:57:59.600 super powerful.
00:58:00.840 Imagine Trump
00:58:01.440 saying, look,
00:58:02.560 it's moved to
00:58:03.000 the states.
00:58:04.140 You need to
00:58:04.860 work on getting
00:58:05.460 women to agree
00:58:06.220 with you because
00:58:06.820 if they do, you
00:58:07.460 can have anything
00:58:08.040 you want.
00:58:08.620 That's what our
00:58:09.080 system is.
00:58:10.200 I'm out of the
00:58:10.800 game.
00:58:12.320 I'm out of the
00:58:13.260 game.
00:58:14.060 It's a kill
00:58:15.040 shot.
00:58:16.080 I'm out of
00:58:16.700 that game.
00:58:17.500 I took
00:58:17.780 myself out.
00:58:20.240 Anyway, yeah,
00:58:23.380 freedom of
00:58:23.840 speech could be
00:58:24.380 the only topic
00:58:25.120 of the election
00:58:25.740 and it would
00:58:26.380 be a Trump
00:58:27.180 victory, I
00:58:27.720 think, because
00:58:28.220 he can make
00:58:29.040 the bodily
00:58:29.440 autonomy and
00:58:30.140 freedom of
00:58:30.560 speech argument
00:58:31.140 if he chooses
00:58:32.560 to.
00:58:34.540 Nate Silver
00:58:35.220 humorously is
00:58:37.840 saying in a
00:58:38.940 post today,
00:58:39.540 the number of
00:58:40.000 high-status
00:58:40.560 posters who
00:58:41.460 think the
00:58:41.820 New York
00:58:42.100 Times is
00:58:42.540 out to get
00:58:43.180 Kamala Harris
00:58:43.920 is a bit
00:58:44.400 disturbing, to
00:58:45.140 be honest.
00:58:47.620 Can you
00:58:48.200 imagine reading
00:58:49.180 the New York
00:58:49.720 Times, and
00:58:51.220 it maybe has
00:58:51.860 a slightly
00:58:52.940 negative slant
00:58:54.340 on Kamala
00:58:55.440 Harris, and
00:58:56.700 thinking that
00:58:57.260 the New York
00:58:57.660 Times is
00:58:58.160 trying to
00:58:58.620 take her
00:58:59.240 out?
00:59:01.360 Well, there
00:59:03.440 are quite a few
00:59:04.040 headlines, including
00:59:04.800 the New York
00:59:05.200 Times, in which
00:59:06.740 they've started to
00:59:07.400 question the
00:59:08.080 usefulness of the
00:59:08.940 Constitution of
00:59:09.700 the United
00:59:09.980 States, and
00:59:11.180 wondering if
00:59:11.680 the Constitution
00:59:12.280 isn't a bigger
00:59:13.140 problem than it
00:59:14.040 is a solution.
00:59:16.720 That's what
00:59:17.280 reporters are
00:59:17.920 actually saying,
00:59:18.820 that the
00:59:19.160 Constitution,
00:59:20.380 stuff like
00:59:20.840 freedom of
00:59:21.300 speech, might
00:59:22.600 be more of a
00:59:23.460 problem these
00:59:24.160 days than it
00:59:24.720 is a benefit.
00:59:26.500 Yep, that's
00:59:27.420 your press.
00:59:30.260 All right, I
00:59:31.460 have devised,
00:59:32.480 and I just ran
00:59:33.460 this on X, I
00:59:35.600 don't know what
00:59:35.960 the results are
00:59:36.560 yet, but I
00:59:37.520 devised a
00:59:38.100 foolproof test
00:59:38.920 to see if
00:59:39.380 you're
00:59:39.520 brainwashed.
00:59:41.200 Would you
00:59:41.700 like to do
00:59:42.140 the foolproof
00:59:42.940 test to see
00:59:44.200 if you're
00:59:44.460 brainwashed?
00:59:45.400 It's just
00:59:45.760 one question.
00:59:47.140 I'm going to
00:59:47.420 ask you one
00:59:47.960 question, and
00:59:49.280 your answer to
00:59:49.900 the question
00:59:50.300 will tell me
00:59:50.800 if you're
00:59:51.120 brainwashed.
00:59:52.220 Do you
00:59:52.460 think I
00:59:52.780 can do
00:59:53.080 it?
00:59:54.020 Just one
00:59:54.640 question.
00:59:55.740 Here's the
00:59:56.140 question.
00:59:58.460 Which
00:59:58.880 candidate is
00:59:59.760 the biggest
01:00:00.140 threat to
01:00:00.740 your democracy
01:00:01.520 and your
01:00:02.200 bodily
01:00:02.540 autonomy?
01:00:06.020 If you
01:00:06.620 think Trump
01:00:07.380 is your
01:00:08.200 biggest risk
01:00:08.900 to your
01:00:09.380 democracy and
01:00:10.480 your bodily
01:00:11.000 autonomy, you're
01:00:13.280 not participating
01:00:14.840 in an
01:00:15.660 argument.
01:00:17.480 You're not
01:00:18.580 in a debate.
01:00:21.440 You're not a
01:00:22.900 person with an
01:00:23.880 opinion.
01:00:24.880 You're a
01:00:25.640 victim.
01:00:26.920 You're a
01:00:27.680 victim.
01:00:28.660 You have been
01:00:29.220 brainwashed into
01:00:30.720 a belief that is
01:00:31.800 absurd, and it's 0.92
01:00:33.540 not in your
01:00:33.980 advantage.
01:00:34.460 no non-brainwashed
01:00:37.940 person would
01:00:38.660 have this
01:00:39.060 opinion.
01:00:41.900 You want
01:00:42.500 another example
01:00:43.140 of brainwashing?
01:00:44.440 I thought of a
01:00:45.000 good one the
01:00:45.380 other day.
01:00:46.260 So after
01:00:46.640 talking to
01:00:47.420 Jason from
01:00:48.200 the All In
01:00:48.780 Pod, he
01:00:51.780 brought up in
01:00:52.500 our conversation
01:00:53.280 yesterday that
01:00:54.780 when Trump was
01:00:55.420 giving his
01:00:56.000 speech at the
01:00:56.940 Capitol on
01:00:57.500 January 6th, he
01:00:59.060 used the
01:00:59.480 phrase, we
01:01:00.600 need to fight
01:01:01.340 like hell. 0.55
01:01:03.200 And he
01:01:03.520 asked me, you
01:01:04.520 know, does
01:01:04.820 that not
01:01:05.880 suggest something
01:01:07.800 uncomfortably
01:01:08.760 close to
01:01:09.460 physical violence?
01:01:11.180 I mean, it's
01:01:11.480 not a call for
01:01:12.260 physical violence,
01:01:13.420 but does that
01:01:14.780 push too close
01:01:15.880 to the line and
01:01:16.640 become reckless
01:01:17.440 and therefore
01:01:18.800 something he
01:01:19.700 should answer
01:01:20.160 for?
01:01:21.900 And I
01:01:22.500 thought to
01:01:22.820 myself, huh,
01:01:24.400 you know, I
01:01:24.780 have to think
01:01:25.200 about that.
01:01:25.980 It's a good
01:01:26.380 point.
01:01:27.220 And I think to
01:01:28.060 myself, there
01:01:28.800 are a lot of
01:01:29.580 people who
01:01:30.320 have that
01:01:30.720 interpretation
01:01:31.380 that that
01:01:32.720 meant maybe,
01:01:34.360 you know, get
01:01:35.000 a little bit
01:01:35.420 forceful and
01:01:36.540 that would be
01:01:36.920 too far.
01:01:38.260 And I
01:01:38.820 thought if so
01:01:39.520 many people
01:01:40.000 have that
01:01:40.420 opinion, hearing
01:01:41.780 those words,
01:01:43.400 he's got a
01:01:43.900 good point.
01:01:45.100 Would you
01:01:45.660 agree?
01:01:47.280 If it's
01:01:48.000 true, and I
01:01:49.360 think if you
01:01:49.980 ask people, they
01:01:50.800 say it's true,
01:01:51.500 Democrats, mostly.
01:01:52.980 If you ask
01:01:53.520 Democrats, do
01:01:54.800 these words
01:01:55.640 give you the
01:01:56.740 feeling that it's
01:01:57.640 gone too far, it
01:01:58.460 could become
01:01:58.980 physical?
01:01:59.920 Most would
01:02:00.540 say yes.
01:02:03.080 Now, let me
01:02:04.360 break your
01:02:04.860 head.
01:02:06.640 Why did they
01:02:07.400 say yes?
01:02:09.360 Because they
01:02:09.920 were brainwashed.
01:02:11.720 I contend
01:02:12.760 that there is
01:02:14.240 not a single
01:02:15.020 person, not a
01:02:16.040 Democrat or
01:02:16.700 anybody else, if
01:02:17.760 they had simply
01:02:18.320 been at the
01:02:18.920 event and they
01:02:20.240 heard them use
01:02:20.940 those words,
01:02:21.540 we've got to
01:02:21.840 fight like
01:02:22.300 hell, I
01:02:23.380 believe that
01:02:23.840 not a single
01:02:24.500 person, not
01:02:25.280 even one, would
01:02:27.060 have interpreted
01:02:27.620 that as anything
01:02:28.600 but ordinary
01:02:29.520 political talk
01:02:30.380 about try very
01:02:31.140 hard.
01:02:32.340 The only
01:02:33.380 reason that
01:02:34.820 they interpreted
01:02:35.460 it as a call
01:02:36.520 to violence is
01:02:38.020 because the
01:02:38.440 first time they
01:02:39.200 heard it, that's
01:02:41.040 how it was
01:02:41.380 reported.
01:02:43.100 What they're
01:02:43.980 reacting to is
01:02:45.360 the way it was
01:02:45.900 framed by the
01:02:46.880 press as
01:02:48.040 dangerous speech.
01:02:49.700 So if somebody
01:02:51.060 says, well, the
01:02:52.060 president said
01:02:52.620 something dangerous
01:02:53.560 that kept people
01:02:54.480 doing dangerous
01:02:55.220 things, and you
01:02:56.320 can see that a
01:02:56.940 dangerous thing
01:02:57.500 happened, here's
01:02:58.620 the dangerous
01:02:59.120 thing happened
01:02:59.840 right before the
01:03:00.860 dangerous thing
01:03:01.460 happened, you
01:03:02.160 know, the
01:03:02.360 actual protests
01:03:03.600 themselves.
01:03:04.660 If you tell me
01:03:05.600 the story that
01:03:06.280 way, and I'm a
01:03:08.120 Democrat and I'm,
01:03:09.140 you know, I want
01:03:09.620 to believe my
01:03:10.220 side, etc., I
01:03:11.580 would totally
01:03:12.040 think those
01:03:12.540 words meant
01:03:13.500 some kind of
01:03:14.380 potential going
01:03:16.600 too far.
01:03:18.400 But if you'd
01:03:19.300 never been
01:03:19.940 primed by the
01:03:22.020 brainwashers, you
01:03:23.660 would never have
01:03:24.240 that thought.
01:03:25.380 You would simply
01:03:26.480 see that as
01:03:27.340 ordinary common
01:03:28.380 language that
01:03:29.200 people use in
01:03:29.940 every context
01:03:30.660 that you've ever
01:03:31.840 been in, business
01:03:33.260 context, anything
01:03:34.340 else.
01:03:38.840 Yeah, to put
01:03:39.720 forth a
01:03:40.180 determined effort
01:03:40.880 is how you would
01:03:41.540 see it.
01:03:42.200 So, you don't
01:03:43.440 have to wonder if
01:03:45.180 half the country
01:03:45.780 is brainwashed. 0.51
01:03:47.160 That's a pretty
01:03:48.180 clean example
01:03:49.160 right there.
01:03:50.200 Pretty clean
01:03:50.840 example.
01:03:52.280 But I would say
01:03:53.200 that which
01:03:53.820 candidate is a
01:03:54.640 threat to your
01:03:55.160 democracy and
01:03:56.040 your bodily
01:03:56.520 autonomy is so
01:03:58.200 obvious that if
01:04:00.520 you get that
01:04:01.120 wrong, it could
01:04:01.940 only be because
01:04:02.700 of brainwashing.
01:04:03.580 It's not because
01:04:04.120 you have a
01:04:04.520 different preference.
01:04:06.440 It's not because
01:04:07.300 I grew up as a
01:04:08.540 Democrat.
01:04:09.140 It's not that.
01:04:10.680 You would have
01:04:11.360 to be literally
01:04:12.180 brainwashed to
01:04:13.280 have the opinion
01:04:13.840 that one of
01:04:14.420 them is worse,
01:04:15.740 that Trump is
01:04:16.540 the one who
01:04:16.860 is worse for
01:04:17.400 your freedom.
01:04:19.660 So, I mean,
01:04:20.560 that's amazing.
01:04:22.720 Eric Weinstein
01:04:23.880 was on a
01:04:25.380 podcast recently.
01:04:26.780 I wish I could
01:04:27.400 remember the name
01:04:28.140 of the podcast
01:04:28.700 host, so I
01:04:29.580 apologize for
01:04:30.200 that.
01:04:32.500 And he's
01:04:33.360 worried that
01:04:33.960 neither Trump
01:04:34.660 nor RFK
01:04:35.500 would be allowed
01:04:36.260 to be president
01:04:37.040 because they
01:04:38.320 don't match
01:04:38.920 the criteria
01:04:42.180 of being
01:04:42.940 harmless to
01:04:44.120 the international
01:04:44.800 systems.
01:04:46.020 And he had
01:04:46.700 this interesting
01:04:47.320 reframe.
01:04:48.200 I hope I can
01:04:48.740 do it justice.
01:04:50.240 I would
01:04:50.860 recommend you
01:04:51.380 see the long
01:04:52.000 form because
01:04:52.580 it's just so
01:04:53.080 well done.
01:04:54.200 The Weidenstine
01:04:55.160 brothers are
01:04:57.000 really like a
01:04:59.100 treasure.
01:04:59.420 I know that
01:05:01.460 sounds too far,
01:05:02.440 but the ability
01:05:04.020 that both of
01:05:04.840 those brothers
01:05:05.440 have,
01:05:06.860 Brett and
01:05:07.420 Eric,
01:05:07.640 to explain
01:05:09.420 complicated
01:05:10.020 things in a
01:05:11.020 way that makes
01:05:11.560 you go,
01:05:12.260 oh, well,
01:05:13.380 thank you.
01:05:13.820 Now I feel
01:05:14.620 like I can
01:05:15.140 explain it in
01:05:16.260 a simple way
01:05:16.820 because you
01:05:17.260 did.
01:05:18.280 They're so
01:05:19.040 good at this.
01:05:20.520 But listening
01:05:21.160 to Eric
01:05:21.600 describe our
01:05:22.840 illusion of
01:05:23.460 choice and
01:05:24.260 how the
01:05:24.520 primaries are
01:05:25.280 to create the
01:05:25.800 illusion of
01:05:26.340 choice, but
01:05:27.260 really to make
01:05:28.180 sure that both
01:05:28.820 candidates are
01:05:30.100 the acceptable
01:05:30.760 kind for the
01:05:31.500 system.
01:05:32.400 But his
01:05:32.800 reframe is that
01:05:33.820 we used to
01:05:34.960 think of
01:05:35.280 democracy as
01:05:36.620 being the
01:05:37.020 will of the
01:05:37.480 people.
01:05:39.440 You know,
01:05:39.680 if the
01:05:40.380 people want
01:05:41.000 something,
01:05:41.380 that's your
01:05:41.700 democracy.
01:05:42.740 But the
01:05:43.300 current form
01:05:44.060 of democracy,
01:05:45.740 as Eric
01:05:46.680 explains it,
01:05:48.160 is keeping
01:05:49.300 the democratic
01:05:50.300 institutions
01:05:51.260 strong.
01:05:53.140 And that if
01:05:54.220 Trump challenges
01:05:55.880 the democratic
01:05:56.800 institutions,
01:05:58.400 that that's
01:05:59.240 against democracy.
01:06:01.120 Even if
01:06:02.180 the individual
01:06:03.780 people in the
01:06:04.600 democracy agree
01:06:05.500 with him by
01:06:06.300 a majority.
01:06:06.760 that there's
01:06:08.620 a new kind
01:06:09.180 of so-called
01:06:10.400 democracy
01:06:11.080 that's being
01:06:12.620 foisted upon
01:06:13.420 us, which is
01:06:14.080 not about the
01:06:14.620 will of the
01:06:15.040 people, but
01:06:15.520 about the
01:06:15.940 will of the
01:06:16.720 democratic
01:06:17.660 institutions.
01:06:20.800 Now, I
01:06:23.200 like that
01:06:23.640 reframe.
01:06:24.820 That gives you
01:06:25.620 a whole other
01:06:26.340 way to look at
01:06:27.520 things.
01:06:28.340 Because, and
01:06:28.940 I'm not sure
01:06:29.520 that anything
01:06:30.060 about this
01:06:30.900 was 100%
01:06:32.820 new.
01:06:33.140 I mean,
01:06:34.320 you've heard
01:06:34.680 me say
01:06:35.140 that the
01:06:36.380 difference
01:06:36.740 between Bush
01:06:37.980 and Gore
01:06:38.580 didn't look
01:06:41.200 that big to
01:06:42.020 me, or
01:06:43.260 Dole and
01:06:44.120 Clinton.
01:06:45.100 It just
01:06:45.840 didn't look
01:06:46.400 that big a
01:06:47.680 difference.
01:06:48.460 Because in
01:06:49.220 both cases,
01:06:50.000 in all those
01:06:50.500 cases, they
01:06:51.240 were willing
01:06:51.640 to allow the
01:06:54.540 main institutions
01:06:55.420 to run as
01:06:56.400 they are.
01:06:56.960 Now, the
01:06:57.220 main institutions
01:06:57.980 would be
01:06:58.500 everything from
01:06:59.180 the way
01:07:00.340 Congress operates
01:07:01.420 to the
01:07:02.200 military-industrial
01:07:03.960 complex, to
01:07:05.100 the way
01:07:05.740 elections are
01:07:06.420 run, to
01:07:07.020 everything,
01:07:07.720 really.
01:07:09.580 But it
01:07:10.320 does seem
01:07:10.700 to me that
01:07:11.220 the system
01:07:12.140 and all those
01:07:12.840 institutions
01:07:13.460 are almost
01:07:15.980 alive and
01:07:17.120 trying to
01:07:17.540 protect themselves
01:07:18.320 from Trump.
01:07:20.060 Meaning that
01:07:21.180 if you
01:07:22.120 take an
01:07:22.920 institution,
01:07:24.380 I don't know,
01:07:25.980 pick any
01:07:26.760 group that
01:07:27.220 would be
01:07:27.540 attacked by
01:07:28.180 Trump, the
01:07:28.600 military-industrial
01:07:29.460 complex, that
01:07:30.600 if you put a
01:07:31.080 bunch of
01:07:31.400 people together
01:07:31.900 with a
01:07:32.240 common
01:07:32.500 interest,
01:07:33.960 profit, for
01:07:34.560 example, they
01:07:35.820 will act
01:07:37.080 collectively like
01:07:38.180 a person
01:07:39.140 trying to
01:07:40.320 defend
01:07:40.620 themselves.
01:07:42.160 And so
01:07:42.760 there are a
01:07:43.200 bunch of
01:07:43.480 institutions that
01:07:44.480 are formed
01:07:44.880 around defending
01:07:45.680 themselves against
01:07:46.660 Trump.
01:07:49.140 So that's a
01:07:50.020 pretty good
01:07:50.280 model.
01:07:51.160 When I found
01:07:51.640 out my friend
01:07:52.280 got a great
01:07:52.960 deal on a
01:07:53.600 wool coat
01:07:54.000 from winners,
01:07:54.840 I started
01:07:55.600 wondering,
01:07:56.520 is every
01:07:57.340 fabulous item
01:07:58.120 I see
01:07:58.520 from winners?
01:07:59.660 Like that
01:08:00.140 woman over 0.99
01:08:00.620 there with
01:08:01.080 the designer
01:08:01.520 jeans.
01:08:02.380 Are those
01:08:02.940 from winners?
01:08:03.880 Ooh, or
01:08:04.640 those beautiful
01:08:05.180 gold earrings?
01:08:06.340 Did she pay 0.97
01:08:06.760 full price?
01:08:07.660 Or that
01:08:07.940 leather tote?
01:08:08.700 Or that
01:08:08.940 cashmere
01:08:09.300 sweater?
01:08:09.920 Or those
01:08:10.220 knee-high
01:08:10.540 boots?
01:08:11.380 That dress?
01:08:12.160 That jacket?
01:08:12.820 Those shoes?
01:08:13.860 Is anyone
01:08:14.640 paying full
01:08:15.280 price for
01:08:15.820 anything?
01:08:16.800 Stop
01:08:17.280 wondering.
01:08:18.080 Start winning.
01:08:19.000 Winners.
01:08:19.600 Find fabulous
01:08:20.260 for less.
01:08:21.440 Attorney
01:08:22.000 General Ken
01:08:22.820 Paxton in
01:08:24.020 Texas has
01:08:25.380 warned two of
01:08:26.020 his counties
01:08:26.500 in Texas
01:08:27.020 that it's
01:08:28.140 unlawful and
01:08:30.340 reckless for
01:08:31.300 counties to
01:08:31.880 use taxpayer
01:08:32.620 dollars to
01:08:33.400 indiscriminately
01:08:34.460 send voter
01:08:35.600 registration forms
01:08:36.820 with no
01:08:37.320 consideration to
01:08:38.260 the recipient's
01:08:39.200 eligibility without 0.94
01:08:41.060 any statutory
01:08:42.040 authority to do
01:08:43.300 so.
01:08:44.040 So first of all,
01:08:44.960 they don't have
01:08:45.480 the legal
01:08:46.160 authority to do
01:08:47.000 what they're
01:08:47.240 doing.
01:08:48.060 And secondly,
01:08:48.960 if they did
01:08:49.840 have the legal
01:08:50.420 authority, it
01:08:51.580 would be the
01:08:52.000 wrong thing to
01:08:52.580 do because
01:08:53.460 they're
01:08:53.800 indiscriminately
01:08:54.660 sending voter
01:08:55.540 registration forms
01:08:56.660 without knowing
01:08:57.980 that they're
01:08:58.360 people who
01:08:58.860 should be able
01:08:59.340 to have voter
01:09:00.060 registration forms.
01:09:01.460 So it's
01:09:02.000 basically two
01:09:02.800 wrongs that 0.95
01:09:04.460 didn't make a
01:09:04.980 right.
01:09:05.800 They were just
01:09:06.200 two wrongs that
01:09:06.940 made each other
01:09:07.460 worse.
01:09:09.560 And he
01:09:10.340 threatens,
01:09:11.880 I urge you to
01:09:13.700 abandon this
01:09:14.360 proposal.
01:09:15.660 If you do
01:09:16.500 not, I will
01:09:17.040 see you in
01:09:17.560 court.
01:09:18.540 Well, that's
01:09:19.160 close.
01:09:20.840 That's close.
01:09:21.560 In this
01:09:22.560 case, I
01:09:23.000 think see you
01:09:23.580 in court is
01:09:24.200 the right
01:09:24.560 level of
01:09:25.000 threat because
01:09:25.740 it's not
01:09:26.100 like they're
01:09:27.180 not necessarily
01:09:27.700 going to go
01:09:28.060 to jail for
01:09:28.640 anything they're
01:09:29.100 doing, but
01:09:29.560 see you in
01:09:30.120 court might
01:09:31.320 slow them
01:09:31.740 down.
01:09:33.340 But I
01:09:34.000 think you
01:09:34.380 need to go
01:09:34.880 all the way
01:09:35.500 to showing a
01:09:36.200 picture of
01:09:36.640 a jail cell.
01:09:38.280 If you
01:09:38.880 want the 0.55
01:09:39.420 people who
01:09:39.960 are going
01:09:40.300 to cheat,
01:09:41.580 and I'm
01:09:42.060 not sure how
01:09:42.660 illegal this
01:09:43.500 is, whether
01:09:43.920 that would be
01:09:44.380 a jailable
01:09:44.940 offense,
01:09:45.440 probably not,
01:09:46.540 but there
01:09:46.960 will be people
01:09:47.640 who would be
01:09:48.180 tempted to do
01:09:49.020 jailable
01:09:49.520 offenses.
01:09:49.920 They will
01:09:51.320 be tempted
01:09:51.900 to do
01:09:52.320 things with
01:09:52.740 ballots that
01:09:53.620 they know
01:09:54.000 are illegal,
01:09:54.800 but they
01:09:55.540 don't think
01:09:55.920 they're going
01:09:56.200 to get
01:09:56.440 caught.
01:09:57.640 If you
01:09:58.200 want people
01:09:58.620 to think
01:09:59.120 more about
01:09:59.660 the issue
01:10:00.100 of getting
01:10:00.440 caught,
01:10:01.340 you're going
01:10:01.680 to have to
01:10:01.980 go visual.
01:10:03.540 You're going
01:10:03.900 to have to
01:10:04.180 show a picture
01:10:04.720 of them in
01:10:05.260 the fucking
01:10:05.640 jail.
01:10:08.200 Show them
01:10:08.880 the jail cell,
01:10:10.180 like an actual
01:10:10.940 picture of the
01:10:11.620 jail cell,
01:10:12.180 and say,
01:10:12.720 this is where
01:10:13.800 you'll be
01:10:14.180 living if you
01:10:15.100 cheat in this
01:10:15.660 election.
01:10:17.800 That's it.
01:10:18.820 Just that
01:10:19.280 meme.
01:10:20.280 This is where
01:10:21.040 you'll be
01:10:21.380 living.
01:10:23.000 This is your
01:10:23.660 new home if
01:10:25.180 you participate
01:10:25.880 in cheating in
01:10:26.620 the election.
01:10:27.940 Now, I
01:10:29.600 think you've
01:10:30.040 got to get
01:10:30.340 people to
01:10:30.800 the point
01:10:31.100 where they're
01:10:31.660 physically afraid
01:10:33.000 of rigging an
01:10:34.420 election, because
01:10:35.620 they're going to
01:10:35.940 spend the rest
01:10:36.540 of their life
01:10:37.060 in jail, or
01:10:38.100 years in jail.
01:10:40.820 So, you've
01:10:42.020 got to ramp
01:10:42.440 it up.
01:10:45.220 Besides, it's
01:10:45.860 real.
01:10:46.300 It's not lying.
01:10:47.260 If you catch
01:10:47.820 somebody rigging
01:10:48.760 an election, I
01:10:49.560 assume jails on
01:10:50.420 the table, and
01:10:51.680 you could take a
01:10:52.280 picture of a
01:10:52.800 jail cell, and
01:10:53.580 it probably looks
01:10:54.680 like a jail
01:10:55.760 cell.
01:10:56.420 So, there's no
01:10:57.140 lying involved.
01:10:58.160 It's just making
01:10:58.840 sure it's top of
01:10:59.700 mind.
01:11:00.660 And top of
01:11:01.280 mind is just
01:11:01.840 repetition and
01:11:02.780 ideally visual and
01:11:04.800 fear.
01:11:05.520 So, fear and a
01:11:08.160 visual persuasion
01:11:09.180 with repetition is
01:11:12.480 really, really
01:11:13.480 powerful.
01:11:14.020 fear, fear, visual
01:11:16.940 repetition.
01:11:18.740 Show me the
01:11:19.340 jail cell.
01:11:20.420 This is your
01:11:21.000 new home if you
01:11:21.740 rig the election,
01:11:22.980 or your new
01:11:23.860 home if you
01:11:24.760 vote illegally.
01:11:27.280 And if enough
01:11:28.180 people see it, you
01:11:29.640 can have the
01:11:30.080 fear, you can
01:11:30.720 have the visual,
01:11:31.520 and you'll have
01:11:31.920 the repetition.
01:11:35.100 Well, the
01:11:37.100 Attorney General
01:11:37.840 of Minnesota,
01:11:38.700 Keith Ellison, who
01:11:40.260 was Tim Walsh's
01:11:41.500 Attorney General,
01:11:42.240 coincidentally, he
01:11:43.860 just thanked
01:11:44.760 Brazil for
01:11:45.880 destroying free
01:11:47.760 speech, at
01:11:50.020 least on the
01:11:50.420 X platform.
01:11:51.800 So, as you
01:11:52.300 know, Brazil has
01:11:52.940 been going after
01:11:53.460 Musk and the 0.95
01:11:54.060 X platform, and
01:11:54.920 they're banning
01:11:55.380 X in Brazil.
01:11:56.780 They were banning
01:11:57.840 people using VPNs
01:11:59.240 to access it, but
01:12:00.320 it looks like they
01:12:00.900 reversed that.
01:12:02.140 So, you can still
01:12:02.920 use a VPN in
01:12:03.800 Brazil.
01:12:05.140 I think they knew
01:12:05.980 that there was no
01:12:06.640 way they could
01:12:07.140 enforce that without
01:12:08.000 a revolution.
01:12:11.380 But what do you
01:12:12.140 think about the
01:12:12.700 fact that the
01:12:14.580 Attorney General
01:12:15.240 of Minnesota came
01:12:17.900 out publicly in
01:12:18.940 favor of banning
01:12:20.540 free speech?
01:12:22.420 Now, they're all
01:12:23.220 using the
01:12:23.820 disinformation thing.
01:12:25.860 It's like, no, no,
01:12:26.700 we're not banning
01:12:27.280 free speech.
01:12:28.640 We just don't like
01:12:29.920 all the disinformation
01:12:30.880 and the talk of
01:12:32.820 violence and stuff.
01:12:34.760 Nobody believes
01:12:35.560 that.
01:12:36.920 So, yeah, they're
01:12:38.440 openly opposed to
01:12:40.820 free speech.
01:12:41.440 It's incredible.
01:12:45.040 So, I posted on
01:12:47.160 X that Harris has
01:12:48.580 several policy
01:12:49.340 positions that
01:12:50.640 could end
01:12:51.140 civilization as we
01:12:52.280 know it.
01:12:53.640 Big claim?
01:12:55.340 I'm going to give
01:12:56.140 you several
01:12:57.140 policies that
01:12:58.360 Harris is in
01:12:58.980 favor of that,
01:13:00.600 in my opinion,
01:13:02.100 could end
01:13:03.620 civilization.
01:13:05.300 Not just
01:13:06.080 America.
01:13:07.200 It could take
01:13:07.720 out the whole
01:13:08.100 fucking world.
01:13:09.480 Because if
01:13:10.080 America goes 0.68
01:13:10.820 down, you
01:13:11.240 don't know
01:13:11.540 what happens
01:13:11.980 after that.
01:13:13.120 I'm taking the
01:13:14.960 assumption that if
01:13:15.640 America crashed,
01:13:17.280 there would be a
01:13:18.100 ripple effect that
01:13:19.060 would be just
01:13:19.740 devastating for the
01:13:20.540 rest of the world.
01:13:21.340 China might be 0.96
01:13:22.020 okay for a while.
01:13:23.400 No, even China
01:13:24.040 wouldn't have
01:13:24.880 anybody to sell to.
01:13:26.760 Well, they'd have
01:13:27.960 somebody, obviously.
01:13:29.240 But if America
01:13:30.780 goes down, we're in
01:13:31.680 trouble.
01:13:31.900 I think you'd
01:13:32.940 all agree with
01:13:33.440 that.
01:13:35.180 So here's one.
01:13:36.200 They want to
01:13:36.580 censor free
01:13:37.240 speech.
01:13:38.800 Can America
01:13:39.500 survive without
01:13:40.580 free speech?
01:13:42.560 I don't think
01:13:43.500 so.
01:13:45.080 How about the
01:13:46.720 open borders that
01:13:47.860 they might call
01:13:48.560 being nice to
01:13:49.440 asylum seekers?
01:13:51.060 Not really.
01:13:52.460 We can't really
01:13:53.120 survive that at
01:13:54.220 the current rate
01:13:55.100 indefinitely.
01:13:56.920 How about
01:13:57.420 spending to
01:13:58.660 oblivion?
01:14:00.160 Running up the
01:14:00.880 debt?
01:14:01.160 Yeah, that's
01:14:02.100 an existential
01:14:02.640 risk.
01:14:03.960 Is Trump going
01:14:05.000 to do the
01:14:05.380 same thing?
01:14:06.140 Well, I worry
01:14:06.720 about it.
01:14:08.000 But at least
01:14:08.520 Trump has an
01:14:09.580 Elon Musk to
01:14:10.720 look at
01:14:11.020 government spending.
01:14:12.860 At least Trump
01:14:13.700 doesn't want to
01:14:14.460 start wars that
01:14:15.260 are expensive
01:14:15.740 for no reason.
01:14:17.820 At least Trump
01:14:18.620 knows that
01:14:20.300 growth is one
01:14:21.160 of the ways
01:14:22.100 to go.
01:14:22.520 At least Trump
01:14:23.040 likes crypto.
01:14:24.700 So I would
01:14:26.080 say that neither
01:14:26.700 of them satisfy
01:14:27.560 me in terms of
01:14:29.300 a plan to get
01:14:30.400 rid of the
01:14:30.740 existential
01:14:31.140 threat of our
01:14:31.920 debt.
01:14:33.140 But Trump
01:14:33.820 at least has
01:14:34.360 some tools
01:14:35.100 he's showing.
01:14:36.340 He said,
01:14:36.960 well, I don't
01:14:38.180 have a complete
01:14:38.780 plan, but I
01:14:39.400 have an Elon
01:14:39.900 Musk.
01:14:41.160 Okay, that's
01:14:41.820 a pretty good
01:14:42.300 start.
01:14:43.720 That's a pretty
01:14:44.320 good start.
01:14:45.180 I don't have a
01:14:45.800 complete plan,
01:14:47.060 but we know
01:14:47.640 growth has to
01:14:48.360 be bigger, and
01:14:49.340 one of the
01:14:49.680 ways we can do
01:14:50.340 that and bring
01:14:51.000 down prices at
01:14:53.180 the same time,
01:14:53.900 because if
01:14:54.360 growth is high,
01:14:55.280 you end up
01:14:55.820 getting inflation,
01:14:56.980 but you can get
01:14:58.180 growth without
01:14:58.920 inflation if
01:15:00.320 you're simultaneously
01:15:01.100 boosting the
01:15:03.000 supply of
01:15:03.420 energy, because
01:15:04.600 then the
01:15:04.820 energy costs
01:15:05.480 go down, those 1.00
01:15:06.440 costs spread
01:15:07.120 into all
01:15:07.480 products, so
01:15:08.720 you can keep
01:15:09.140 prices down as
01:15:10.200 long as energy
01:15:10.820 keeps going
01:15:11.940 down.
01:15:13.420 So again, I
01:15:14.820 wouldn't say
01:15:15.220 Trump has a
01:15:15.820 plan, but he
01:15:17.500 shows all of
01:15:18.140 his tools.
01:15:20.140 And, you
01:15:20.400 know, if the
01:15:20.960 handyman shows
01:15:24.320 up at your
01:15:24.700 house and he
01:15:26.120 hasn't quite
01:15:26.600 looked at the
01:15:27.100 problem, you
01:15:28.520 don't know
01:15:28.860 that he has
01:15:29.220 a plan, but
01:15:30.580 if you see
01:15:31.040 he brought
01:15:31.300 his tools,
01:15:32.420 you're like,
01:15:32.880 okay, well,
01:15:33.520 that's better
01:15:33.960 than somebody
01:15:34.400 who didn't
01:15:34.680 bring tools,
01:15:36.040 so at least
01:15:36.760 I'll give
01:15:37.060 him that.
01:15:38.820 How about
01:15:39.400 restricting gun
01:15:40.200 ownership?
01:15:40.800 You see where
01:15:41.240 that could go.
01:15:41.880 How about the
01:15:42.460 tax on
01:15:42.980 unrealized capital
01:15:44.080 gains?
01:15:45.880 Economists
01:15:46.280 pretty much say
01:15:47.880 that's the
01:15:48.380 destruction of
01:15:49.100 the United
01:15:49.420 States.
01:15:50.360 And how
01:15:50.780 about the
01:15:51.260 racial
01:15:52.060 discrimination,
01:15:53.040 which is
01:15:53.440 pretty much
01:15:54.100 anti-white all 0.53
01:15:55.000 the time.
01:15:55.940 These are
01:15:56.580 existential
01:15:57.220 threats.
01:15:58.940 I don't
01:15:59.700 think that
01:16:00.140 Trump is
01:16:00.580 doing anything
01:16:01.460 that you
01:16:03.020 could sort
01:16:03.460 of game
01:16:03.840 out in
01:16:04.160 your mind
01:16:04.560 and say,
01:16:04.980 okay, if
01:16:05.300 this keeps
01:16:05.720 going, it's
01:16:06.480 the end
01:16:06.760 of civilization.
01:16:08.640 Like, what
01:16:09.260 would be an
01:16:09.680 example?
01:16:10.840 Now, I get
01:16:11.760 that I'm
01:16:12.180 biased, so
01:16:13.720 there might
01:16:14.140 be an
01:16:14.420 example.
01:16:15.140 If somebody
01:16:15.840 has an
01:16:16.200 example of
01:16:16.880 something that
01:16:17.420 Trump is
01:16:17.920 proposing, an
01:16:19.340 actual policy,
01:16:21.040 that looks
01:16:21.560 to me like
01:16:22.320 it, you
01:16:23.680 know, in
01:16:23.960 the worst
01:16:24.320 case scenario,
01:16:25.120 it could
01:16:25.300 end
01:16:25.560 civilization,
01:16:26.860 what would
01:16:27.540 that be?
01:16:28.800 Name it.
01:16:30.960 I'm open
01:16:31.660 to the
01:16:32.760 conversation.
01:16:33.640 There might
01:16:34.060 be, but I
01:16:35.220 don't know, I
01:16:35.720 can't think of
01:16:36.300 anything.
01:16:37.400 But here it
01:16:37.880 says, one,
01:16:38.420 two, three,
01:16:39.000 four, five,
01:16:39.580 six, six
01:16:40.320 different policy
01:16:41.240 preferences that
01:16:43.340 are, they
01:16:44.800 look like
01:16:45.280 existential
01:16:45.720 threats.
01:16:47.080 Am I wrong
01:16:47.880 about that?
01:16:51.860 All right,
01:16:52.360 here's a
01:16:52.740 question.
01:16:53.160 And this
01:16:53.640 is just me
01:16:54.320 being a
01:16:55.000 troublemaker.
01:16:56.240 Why would
01:16:56.860 a political
01:16:57.360 campaign hire
01:16:58.460 internal
01:16:59.080 pollsters if
01:17:02.300 the free
01:17:03.160 public polls
01:17:04.220 are accurate?
01:17:06.600 And you
01:17:07.300 have more
01:17:07.740 than one.
01:17:08.280 You've got
01:17:08.580 dozens of
01:17:10.220 different public
01:17:11.100 polls that
01:17:12.940 will tell you
01:17:13.480 how you're
01:17:13.820 doing in
01:17:14.140 every state,
01:17:15.080 and they'll
01:17:15.880 tell you how
01:17:16.320 you're doing
01:17:16.600 with every
01:17:17.000 demographic
01:17:17.540 group.
01:17:18.000 and they're
01:17:19.540 updated pretty
01:17:20.400 often.
01:17:21.800 So why
01:17:22.520 does every
01:17:23.060 campaign at
01:17:24.500 the presidential
01:17:25.020 level hire
01:17:26.460 their own
01:17:26.860 internal
01:17:27.400 pollsters?
01:17:27.980 pollsters, is
01:17:30.900 that a waste
01:17:31.380 of money?
01:17:34.220 Now, I
01:17:35.060 get that the
01:17:35.880 internal
01:17:36.300 pollsters might
01:17:37.120 ask different
01:17:37.820 questions, but
01:17:40.100 really, if you
01:17:41.900 know what
01:17:42.340 demographic
01:17:42.960 group is
01:17:44.760 doing what,
01:17:46.080 and there's
01:17:46.740 also polls on
01:17:47.660 issues, you
01:17:49.120 can tell what
01:17:49.660 demographic group
01:17:50.600 supports what
01:17:51.380 policy issues,
01:17:52.800 this is all
01:17:53.520 public.
01:17:53.960 it's public
01:17:55.240 and it's
01:17:55.600 multiple
01:17:55.960 companies.
01:17:57.940 So why
01:17:59.620 do they do
01:18:00.020 internal
01:18:00.400 polling?
01:18:01.820 The only
01:18:02.560 reason I can
01:18:03.160 think of is
01:18:04.360 that they
01:18:04.740 know the
01:18:06.760 external
01:18:07.280 polling is
01:18:07.840 fake.
01:18:10.340 What's the
01:18:11.000 other reason?
01:18:12.040 They like
01:18:12.800 spending money
01:18:13.480 that they
01:18:13.820 don't need
01:18:14.160 to spend?
01:18:16.040 I'm open
01:18:16.780 to the other
01:18:17.280 reason.
01:18:18.200 Is it because
01:18:19.100 the internal
01:18:19.720 polling only
01:18:20.640 checks things
01:18:21.560 that the
01:18:22.740 public polling
01:18:23.400 doesn't look
01:18:23.940 at?
01:18:25.840 No.
01:18:27.160 Because they
01:18:27.860 also poll
01:18:28.740 about how
01:18:29.280 people are
01:18:29.700 doing in
01:18:30.060 each state
01:18:30.480 by each
01:18:30.840 demographic.
01:18:32.020 They reproduce 0.83
01:18:33.700 the public
01:18:34.420 stuff, except
01:18:36.240 they get
01:18:36.600 different answers.
01:18:38.020 What's up
01:18:38.360 with that?
01:18:44.540 Somebody on
01:18:45.480 Rumble is
01:18:45.980 saying the
01:18:46.320 Weinstein
01:18:47.100 brothers,
01:18:47.720 along with
01:18:48.080 Jordan
01:18:48.320 Peterson,
01:18:48.960 are grifters.
01:18:51.960 Talk about
01:18:52.660 a word that
01:18:53.240 has lost
01:18:53.680 all meaning.
01:18:56.480 If somebody
01:18:57.560 is a
01:18:58.100 public
01:18:58.520 personality
01:18:59.300 and they
01:19:00.880 appear on
01:19:01.440 a podcast
01:19:01.920 or they
01:19:02.500 have their
01:19:02.840 own podcast
01:19:03.680 in which
01:19:04.640 they give
01:19:05.000 their opinions
01:19:05.640 and they
01:19:06.620 get paid
01:19:07.000 for speaking,
01:19:08.660 is that a
01:19:10.700 grift?
01:19:11.580 Or is that
01:19:12.480 a perfectly
01:19:13.480 transparent
01:19:14.360 addition to
01:19:15.420 the conversation?
01:19:16.180 how broken
01:19:19.880 do you have
01:19:20.380 to be to
01:19:21.240 call that a
01:19:21.840 grift?
01:19:22.920 They are the
01:19:23.600 most transparent
01:19:24.480 people in the
01:19:25.340 public view.
01:19:26.740 They tell you
01:19:27.260 exactly what
01:19:27.880 they think,
01:19:28.820 why they
01:19:29.300 think it,
01:19:29.780 they show
01:19:30.200 their work,
01:19:31.060 and they're
01:19:31.640 using economic
01:19:33.680 models that
01:19:35.760 are completely
01:19:36.380 transparent.
01:19:38.060 Jordan
01:19:38.340 Peterson
01:19:38.720 charges tickets
01:19:40.220 for his
01:19:40.700 appearances.
01:19:41.980 Where's the
01:19:42.700 trick?
01:19:43.900 Did you go
01:19:44.680 to a
01:19:44.980 Jordan
01:19:45.240 Peterson
01:19:45.680 event and
01:19:46.780 then when
01:19:47.040 you showed
01:19:47.400 up they
01:19:47.720 asked for
01:19:48.080 money and
01:19:48.480 you said,
01:19:48.960 what?
01:19:49.840 What?
01:19:50.400 What kind
01:19:51.220 of grifting
01:19:51.780 bullshit is
01:19:52.540 this?
01:19:53.220 You're going
01:19:53.620 to fly to
01:19:54.260 my town on
01:19:55.780 your own
01:19:56.120 dime and
01:19:57.260 give me
01:19:57.780 this speech,
01:19:58.420 damn it.
01:20:00.060 I'm not
01:20:00.780 looking to
01:20:01.280 pay for it.
01:20:03.720 I think
01:20:05.060 the people
01:20:05.500 who call
01:20:06.080 public figures
01:20:07.340 grifters,
01:20:08.960 if they're
01:20:09.540 doing transparently
01:20:10.600 what they're
01:20:11.420 doing in this
01:20:12.100 case,
01:20:13.000 you're so
01:20:13.560 lost.
01:20:14.860 You're so
01:20:15.260 lost.
01:20:15.960 There are
01:20:16.400 grifters.
01:20:17.580 I would say
01:20:18.180 there are
01:20:18.460 some race
01:20:19.000 grifters that
01:20:20.320 may not
01:20:21.180 completely believe
01:20:22.540 the things
01:20:23.000 they're saying,
01:20:23.620 but they
01:20:24.260 know they
01:20:24.620 can sell
01:20:25.620 a book
01:20:25.880 that way.
01:20:26.920 Now,
01:20:27.260 calling them
01:20:27.780 grifters
01:20:28.340 feels fair.
01:20:31.960 But if
01:20:32.600 somebody's
01:20:32.960 completely
01:20:33.440 transparent and
01:20:34.960 it does look
01:20:35.660 like that's
01:20:36.120 their real
01:20:36.640 opinions,
01:20:37.680 in those
01:20:38.100 cases,
01:20:38.900 they all
01:20:39.480 look like
01:20:39.760 real opinions
01:20:40.380 to me.
01:20:40.760 Yeah,
01:20:42.300 that grifter 1.00
01:20:42.760 thing,
01:20:43.180 you need
01:20:43.460 to retire
01:20:43.900 that.
01:20:45.800 People
01:20:46.160 call me
01:20:46.560 a grifter
01:20:46.980 too.
01:20:48.620 Could I
01:20:49.080 be more
01:20:49.620 transparent?
01:20:51.060 You know
01:20:51.440 exactly how
01:20:52.140 my business
01:20:52.660 model works
01:20:53.400 and you
01:20:54.220 know my
01:20:54.560 opinions.
01:20:55.920 What's the
01:20:56.660 grifty
01:20:56.960 part?
01:20:58.220 Get over
01:20:58.740 it.
01:21:00.660 All right.
01:21:01.060 So the
01:21:05.700 Waymo
01:21:06.180 taxis are
01:21:07.240 becoming
01:21:08.100 more of
01:21:08.500 a thing.
01:21:09.260 So Waymo
01:21:09.880 is that
01:21:10.320 company
01:21:10.680 that's
01:21:10.940 trying to
01:21:11.240 make
01:21:11.440 driverless
01:21:12.160 taxis.
01:21:14.680 So that's
01:21:15.280 a big deal
01:21:15.700 now.
01:21:16.240 So you
01:21:16.500 can see
01:21:16.740 more of
01:21:17.080 those.
01:21:19.240 I've got
01:21:19.820 real questions
01:21:20.580 about whether
01:21:21.140 the driverless
01:21:22.000 vehicles are
01:21:22.900 going to
01:21:24.860 work out.
01:21:25.620 In theory,
01:21:26.540 they would be
01:21:26.900 way better
01:21:27.280 than people.
01:21:28.520 But I
01:21:29.280 would still
01:21:29.700 be scared
01:21:30.280 to death. 0.75
01:21:31.440 Getting
01:21:31.720 in a
01:21:31.940 driverless
01:21:32.460 car.
01:21:33.340 I don't
01:21:33.900 know that
01:21:34.180 my brain
01:21:34.720 can adapt
01:21:35.320 to that.
01:21:35.800 Maybe it's
01:21:36.600 my generation.
01:21:37.560 Maybe if
01:21:37.900 you're younger
01:21:38.360 it's easier.
01:21:41.820 But we'll
01:21:42.460 keep an eye
01:21:42.880 on that.
01:21:43.520 Anyway,
01:21:46.020 so Netanyahu
01:21:46.780 was asked
01:21:47.560 for the
01:21:48.220 millionth time
01:21:48.960 why doesn't
01:21:50.040 he end
01:21:50.600 the war
01:21:50.940 and cease
01:21:51.400 fire.
01:21:51.940 And somebody
01:21:52.640 asked the
01:21:53.060 question,
01:21:53.820 what would
01:21:54.580 it take
01:21:56.660 before you
01:21:57.800 would stop
01:21:58.920 blowing things
01:22:00.840 up in
01:22:01.380 Gaza.
01:22:03.500 And he
01:22:04.220 had this
01:22:04.760 answer which
01:22:05.660 I don't
01:22:06.620 know why
01:22:06.920 this made
01:22:07.420 news.
01:22:09.580 He said
01:22:10.480 we'll be
01:22:11.540 done when
01:22:12.300 essentially I'm
01:22:13.200 paraphrasing,
01:22:14.000 we'll be done
01:22:14.600 in Gaza when
01:22:15.420 we get rid
01:22:15.900 of Hamas.
01:22:16.500 And I
01:22:18.740 thought to
01:22:19.020 myself,
01:22:20.100 well,
01:22:21.840 you mean
01:22:22.480 exactly the
01:22:23.260 thing that
01:22:23.600 you've been
01:22:23.860 saying from
01:22:24.280 the start.
01:22:26.180 Why are
01:22:26.860 people still
01:22:27.480 asking him
01:22:28.080 that question?
01:22:29.180 There seems
01:22:29.820 to be some
01:22:30.360 assumption
01:22:30.800 that's so
01:22:32.100 dumb,
01:22:33.160 but we keep
01:22:34.280 treating it
01:22:34.840 like it's
01:22:36.720 an opinion.
01:22:38.380 If somebody
01:22:39.320 says they
01:22:40.180 should stop
01:22:40.720 the fighting
01:22:41.180 in Gaza
01:22:41.660 now and
01:22:42.100 rebuild,
01:22:43.280 they are
01:22:43.840 saying to
01:22:44.380 leave Hamas, 0.99
01:22:45.800 this deadly
01:22:46.600 terrorist
01:22:47.100 organization,
01:22:48.100 in place
01:22:48.660 and reconstitute
01:22:50.020 them.
01:22:51.060 Do they
01:22:51.400 even know
01:22:51.960 they're saying
01:22:52.440 that?
01:22:53.720 The one and
01:22:54.980 only answer
01:22:55.720 that makes
01:22:56.120 sense is
01:22:56.940 that we'll
01:22:57.320 stop fighting
01:22:57.980 when Hamas 0.84
01:22:59.300 is gone,
01:23:00.420 meaning all
01:23:01.040 the leaders
01:23:01.580 and all
01:23:02.280 the military
01:23:03.480 officers,
01:23:05.880 probably.
01:23:06.120 they're
01:23:08.180 very clear
01:23:08.920 about what
01:23:09.360 they're going
01:23:09.680 to do.
01:23:10.700 And then
01:23:11.020 they use
01:23:11.360 the analogy,
01:23:12.860 you know,
01:23:13.340 would you
01:23:14.280 leave Hitler 0.94
01:23:14.940 in power
01:23:15.560 just because
01:23:17.420 you won
01:23:18.140 the war?
01:23:19.800 Suppose
01:23:20.180 you won
01:23:20.620 and Hitler 0.82
01:23:21.180 just said,
01:23:22.160 all right,
01:23:22.480 all right,
01:23:22.820 you win,
01:23:23.840 you win,
01:23:25.460 quit fighting,
01:23:26.160 if you quit
01:23:26.640 fighting,
01:23:27.040 I'll quit
01:23:27.360 fighting.
01:23:28.740 No,
01:23:29.540 no,
01:23:29.820 you had to
01:23:30.220 get Hitler 0.86
01:23:30.680 because otherwise
01:23:32.220 Hitler would 1.00
01:23:32.720 just reconstitute
01:23:33.660 and become
01:23:34.380 Hitler again. 0.97
01:23:34.900 So to
01:23:37.040 imagine that
01:23:37.740 Israel has 1.00
01:23:38.940 a second
01:23:39.640 path,
01:23:41.320 these are
01:23:42.120 not opinions.
01:23:43.440 We're acting
01:23:44.320 like there's
01:23:44.760 a difference
01:23:45.160 of opinion.
01:23:45.840 There isn't.
01:23:47.040 There's only
01:23:47.460 one thing
01:23:48.020 that makes
01:23:48.380 sense.
01:23:49.540 Just one
01:23:50.040 thing.
01:23:51.500 Hamas 0.96
01:23:51.960 cannot be
01:23:52.480 your neighbor.
01:23:54.440 That's it.
01:23:57.240 That's it.
01:23:58.860 Imagine if
01:23:59.700 this were
01:24:00.080 you and
01:24:01.900 some literal
01:24:02.660 terrorists
01:24:03.320 moved into
01:24:04.380 your next
01:24:04.840 door.
01:24:05.500 They were
01:24:05.700 literally
01:24:05.980 your neighbors
01:24:06.520 and they
01:24:07.440 were literally
01:24:07.880 terrorists and
01:24:08.460 they told
01:24:08.760 you that they
01:24:09.180 were going
01:24:09.400 to kill
01:24:09.680 you as soon
01:24:10.120 as you
01:24:10.280 went to
01:24:10.580 sleep.
01:24:11.580 So you
01:24:12.080 call the
01:24:12.500 police and
01:24:13.880 the police
01:24:14.260 say,
01:24:14.700 good news,
01:24:16.280 the terrorists
01:24:16.820 say that
01:24:18.460 today they
01:24:19.100 won't kill
01:24:19.540 you.
01:24:20.680 And you
01:24:21.260 say,
01:24:22.080 what about
01:24:23.700 tomorrow?
01:24:25.040 And they
01:24:25.580 say,
01:24:26.220 well,
01:24:26.680 I mean,
01:24:28.080 you can't
01:24:28.700 guarantee
01:24:29.000 anything in
01:24:29.540 the future.
01:24:31.100 Okay,
01:24:31.340 but you're
01:24:31.720 letting the
01:24:32.600 terrorists who
01:24:33.760 said they want
01:24:34.180 to kill
01:24:34.440 me live
01:24:35.540 next door.
01:24:37.840 That doesn't
01:24:38.640 work.
01:24:40.660 Yeah.
01:24:41.020 So there
01:24:41.780 is no other
01:24:42.440 argument.
01:24:43.320 It is very
01:24:44.120 simply if
01:24:45.080 you're Israel 0.95
01:24:45.720 and if you
01:24:46.240 were America,
01:24:46.800 you'd do the
01:24:47.400 same thing.
01:24:48.280 Everybody would
01:24:48.920 do the same
01:24:49.400 thing.
01:24:49.760 If you were
01:24:50.060 China,
01:24:50.660 Russia,
01:24:51.200 America,
01:24:52.360 Israel,
01:24:53.400 every country
01:24:54.300 would do the
01:24:55.120 same thing
01:24:56.320 exactly.
01:24:57.160 You have to
01:24:57.660 get rid of
01:24:58.100 every one of
01:24:58.700 them.
01:24:58.880 And if
01:24:59.920 that requires
01:25:00.640 that there's
01:25:01.960 nothing left
01:25:02.540 in Gaza
01:25:03.000 but dust,
01:25:04.260 then you
01:25:05.620 do the
01:25:06.060 dust.
01:25:07.340 There's not
01:25:08.080 a second
01:25:08.480 choice.
01:25:11.160 Not one
01:25:12.460 that makes
01:25:12.780 sense.
01:25:13.600 And asking
01:25:14.100 them to do
01:25:14.660 something that
01:25:15.160 doesn't make
01:25:15.720 sense doesn't
01:25:17.720 make sense.
01:25:19.320 Right?
01:25:20.020 There's not
01:25:20.700 enough benefit
01:25:21.400 for the
01:25:21.820 United States
01:25:22.780 that you can
01:25:24.320 ask them to
01:25:24.960 live with this
01:25:25.540 as a permanent
01:25:26.200 situation.
01:25:26.900 It's a little
01:25:28.220 bit of Hamas.
01:25:29.000 You can put
01:25:29.380 up with it.
01:25:30.240 No,
01:25:30.580 there's no
01:25:30.900 such thing
01:25:31.360 as a little
01:25:31.760 bit of Hamas 0.57
01:25:32.420 anymore.
01:25:33.880 There's none
01:25:34.700 and then there's
01:25:36.020 the job's not
01:25:36.740 done.
01:25:38.080 That's it.
01:25:39.180 Two choices.
01:25:42.480 And that,
01:25:43.180 ladies and 0.98
01:25:43.480 gentlemen,
01:25:43.700 is my show
01:25:44.560 for today.
01:25:45.660 Best thing
01:25:46.220 you've ever
01:25:46.540 seen.
01:25:46.960 I went on
01:25:47.420 too long.
01:25:47.960 I'm going
01:25:48.140 to talk to
01:25:48.600 the subscribers
01:25:49.660 at Locals
01:25:50.660 privately,
01:25:51.960 but thanks
01:25:52.740 for joining
01:25:53.120 on X and
01:25:53.800 Rumble
01:25:54.100 and YouTube.
01:25:56.900 And I'll
01:25:57.900 see you
01:25:58.240 same time
01:25:58.680 tomorrow.
