Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2586 CWSA 09⧸03⧸24

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

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

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

00:15:49.120 and paddle them

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.

00:19:07.220 Please play responsibly.

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

00:21:51.060 a girls

00:21:51.660 politics.

00:21:53.460 And that the

00:21:54.800 Democrats would

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?

00:22:58.840 The Iroquois

00:23:00.280 nation was

00:23:02.380 a matriarchy.

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

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

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,

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

00:25:45.900 a matriarchy,

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:49:57.780 love the

00:49:58.160 criminals,

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

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

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

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

00:56:39.620 every state.

00:56:40.500 You women can

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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,

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

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

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

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

01:23:30.680 because otherwise

01:23:32.220 Hitler would

01:23:32.720 just reconstitute

01:23:33.660 and become

01:23:34.380 Hitler again.

01:23:34.900 So to

01:23:37.040 imagine that

01:23:37.740 Israel has

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

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

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

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

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.
