Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2610 CWSA 09⧸27⧸24

00:00:00.000 human brains. All you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank of gels, a

00:00:04.720 canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like

00:00:09.400 coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the

00:00:15.020 thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go.

00:00:20.680 Oh, so good. Thank you, Paul. Always appreciate it.

00:00:32.500 Well, I'd like to start with the news that will make us all feel dumber. Are you ready?

00:00:41.360 Elon Musk posted this on X. He said, once you understand the Kardashev scale, it becomes

00:00:49.880 utterly obvious that essentially all energy generated will be solar. All right. OK. So

00:00:58.460 everybody good on that? I mean, I assume you all understand the Kardashev scale. Wait, what?

00:01:09.740 You don't? Oh, come on. I thought everybody knew the Kardashev scale. All right. Well, I

00:01:17.880 looked it up for you just in case you didn't know. According to Google, the Kardashev scale,

00:01:24.000 which I still can't pronounce smoothly, it's a method of measuring a civilization's level of

00:01:29.760 technological advancement based on the amount of energy it is capable of harnessing. So now it

00:01:36.940 all makes sense. So it's a scale of the advancement based on the amount of energy.

00:01:44.200 OK. Now that we understand that, once you understand that, it becomes utterly obvious

00:01:50.640 that essentially all energy generation will be so... Oh, OK. Got it. Everybody got it?

00:01:57.180 I have no fucking idea what any of that means. Yeah. No idea. So... But apparently when you dig

00:02:14.160 into it a little bit and you look at the arguments... So the argument is that it wouldn't take much

00:02:21.520 space in the United States to generate all of the power we'll ever need. Now, I don't know

00:02:28.300 if that calculation was done before AI said we'd need 10 times as much power. I also don't think

00:02:37.480 that they had ability to compare solar power over the next, I don't know, 50 years versus nuclear power.

00:02:47.240 Because you'd have to make all kinds of assumptions that nuclear power doesn't do so well, but solar

00:02:54.220 power keeps improving. I don't think that's true. It has been true for 20 or 30 years, but I don't think

00:03:02.020 it's true now because there's a lot of attention to the nuclear field. So if you... If Rolls Royce or

00:03:09.900 somebody comes up with a really good economical, small, portable, nuclear energy thing, that changes

00:03:18.380 everything. So I'm not sure that this is as true as it might have been before nuclear got a renaissance.

00:03:26.620 Well, here's something that's amazing, possibly, according to Nature, the publication, not, you know,

00:03:33.980 not Mother Nature, but the publication Nature. There was a experiment in which they used stem cells

00:03:43.020 to treat a woman's diabetes, and not only did it work, she can eat sugar again, and she's making her

00:03:50.140 own insulin. This is somebody who couldn't make insulin, and they did stem cells, and now she can

00:03:55.180 make insulin, and she can eat normal food. What? How big a deal is that? Now, again, this is a limited

00:04:05.660 test. It's not proven for any large population, but if you can get even one diabetic who could not make

00:04:14.060 insulin, and you can make them make insulin with stem cells, holy cow. Wow. I mean, that's like a wow

00:04:26.620 that's as big as the biggest wow. Now, is it true? Well, I guess we'll find out. So I can't go so far as

00:04:33.420 to say, you know, it's a dumb deal, but I can't imagine it would ever work for one person and not work for

00:04:40.120 other people. That, you know, my brain can't calculate that, because it created an ability

00:04:46.600 that didn't exist. It's not like it cured a disease. If the only thing it done is cure a disease,

00:04:52.600 then I'd say, well, you know, maybe somebody would have gotten over it anyway on their own,

00:04:57.320 because that happens sometimes. But I don't think anybody with diabetes has ever regenerated the

00:05:03.560 ability to create insulin. Does that ever happen naturally? So looks like a pretty good sign.

00:05:13.480 Science. Here's a fun little study. New Atlas is talking about it.

00:05:21.400 Very different than the old Atlas. This is a publication, New Atlas. And they tested a specific

00:05:27.960 video game to see if it would make people feel good. Now, this is not generalizable to first-person

00:05:35.000 shooter games or anything like that. And we know people like playing video games. That's why it's so

00:05:40.520 big. But would it have any lasting benefit on your happiness? And of all the things that they could test,

00:05:48.600 they picked the smartest one.

00:05:49.960 You know, you think about all the different video games that would have an impact and exist.

00:05:57.560 They picked one called Power Wash. Now, apparently Power Wash, I'd never heard of it,

00:06:02.600 but it's a video game where you come upon dirty objects and use a power washer to clean them off.

00:06:10.200 And that's kind of it. You just power wash things until they're clean.

00:06:14.520 Now, apparently, people who do that have some kind of lasting, small, but a lasting improvement

00:06:22.120 in moods. More than 70% of the participants became happier because they used a video game to wash

00:06:29.320 dirt off of an object. Now, do you think they needed to do that, or could they have just asked me?

00:06:38.760 Well, if they had been testing something like, you know, generic regular games, I wouldn't have had

00:06:44.600 anything to add. But if you came to me and said, hey, I've got a video game where with very little

00:06:50.760 effort, you're going to feel that you accomplished a task. Do you think that'll make people happier?

00:06:58.440 I would have said, oh, hold your horses. You don't need to do that study. Because one of the things we do

00:07:05.320 know is that people are happier when they have the sense of accomplishing a task. And then they would

00:07:11.080 say to me, but Scott, they're not actually accomplishing a task. It's just a video game.

00:07:16.360 To which I would say, hold on, hold on. You're talking to a hypnotist. No difference.

00:07:22.760 I would have been able to predict that would make you happier. I guarantee I could have gotten that one

00:07:27.400 right. Just based on the hypnosis and the fact that fiction and truth will have a, you know,

00:07:34.520 similar directionally, not as powerful, but a similar directional effect. Very well understood.

00:07:42.040 And we definitely are happier when we complete things. I think something similar probably could

00:07:48.040 have happened with Tetris. Do you remember Tetris? You had to get the little falling blocks

00:07:54.600 right in line so they line up and stuff. To me, that was a bunch of accomplishing tasks.

00:08:02.680 And I'll bet you, if you did the same study on Tetris, you would find that it made people happier

00:08:09.320 because they were completing tasks. Now, I do understand that a regular video game where there's

00:08:14.440 more, you know, story and adventure, you know, there's still completing of tasks. But I feel like those

00:08:20.760 are more about feeling like you're never really done. So if you're doing sort of a war game with

00:08:27.720 levels and stuff, aren't they trying to make you feel like you never completed it? I'm not sure that

00:08:34.040 would make me happy. But if you tell me you've completed the cleaning of the power washing of

00:08:39.960 that dirty car in that driveway, I would actually feel like I did something

00:08:44.840 because I don't have to do that again. It's not connected to a larger mission.

00:08:49.480 Anyway, there's another study that says that eating fish is linked to lower risk of cognitive decline.

00:08:59.400 That's right. You will get less dementia if you eat fish, suggests the study. Now, when I say suggests,

00:09:09.640 yes, I'm going to compliment them, this is in SciPost publication, because the way they worded the

00:09:15.640 headline is eating fish linked to lower risk of cognitive decline. Thank you. That is the correct

00:09:22.680 way to put that. It is not a cause of better mental health. It's linked. Now, can anybody come up with

00:09:31.240 anything that would be a reason that eating fish would be linked, but not a cause of better mental

00:09:40.200 health? Well, it took me about one second to go to Grok and say, is there any correlation between

00:09:47.560 income and dementia? And of course, there is. The richer you are, the less dementia you get.

00:09:59.240 Surprised? Well, is there any correlation between intelligence and income? Well, yes. Yes. The more

00:10:08.520 intelligent you are, the higher your income. The higher your income, the more likely you're going to be

00:10:15.080 eating sushi instead of fast food at McDonald's. Now, I know that McDonald's can give you a fish

00:10:22.280 stick or some damn thing, but basically, if you're eating fast food, you're eating other stuff.

00:10:29.400 So it seems to me that smart people are less likely to get dementia because they're going to be using

00:10:34.120 their brains more. That's what smart people do. So they become rich, and then the rich people eat a lot

00:10:39.400 of fish because rich people eat more fish. They go on vacations to Hawaii and eat fish, and they live by

00:10:44.920 the beach, and they use fish, and they can afford more to get fish. So it doesn't surprise me,

00:10:53.000 but it's not a correlation. I think it's a correlation without causation is my best guess,

00:10:57.720 although it might be causation. It's just you can't tell by the study.

00:11:04.680 So according to Daily Wire, there are some big donors like Bill Gates and other liberal mega donors,

00:11:11.720 and they're funding some plans to make sure that the newsrooms around the world have greater,

00:11:19.480 the Daily Wire says, hysteria. But literally, there is a funded program to try to convince the news to

00:11:29.240 talk about climate change a lot more. And they literally say to try to work it into every conversation.

00:11:35.880 And so, you know, you always joke about the news says it rained all because of climate change.

00:11:44.920 And you're like, really? Everything's not about climate change. There's a war in Ukraine. Well,

00:11:50.200 it's going to get worse because of climate change. And you say, really? Really? How are you jamming

00:11:55.240 climate change into the Ukraine war? I don't see it. And trade routes are going to change because of

00:12:01.080 climate change. Really? International trade? You work climate change into that conversation?

00:12:07.640 It turns out that's a strategy. And it's highly funded. And it's from people who definitely have

00:12:14.680 an influence on the news. So that's terrible. Now, the way you would look at this story is if you believe

00:12:23.400 that climate change was a genuine existential risk, you might say, well, it's about time we got more

00:12:32.440 serious about this with our news so that we'll convince the people to be more serious. But if you

00:12:38.040 think it's not true, and you think that even if the temperature is going up, it's not an existential

00:12:45.320 problem, then this would be nothing but fake news and propaganda. So since I'm closer to that second view,

00:12:52.200 where I don't know if the temperature is going up from human activity or not. But I'm pretty sure

00:12:57.480 it's not going to kill me. And there's not going to be an existential threat. So that's where I'm in.

00:13:04.760 That's where I'm at. So to me, it looks like propaganda not helping the world.

00:13:11.560 Well, here's some good news. Thank God, finally, California apologized for slavery. They did it in

00:13:18.040 writing. And Joel Pollack in Breitbart is writing about this. Here's the actual apology. Resolved,

00:13:26.040 the state of California apologizes for perpetuating the harms that African Americans faced by having

00:13:33.400 imbued racial prejudice through segregation, public and private discrimination.

00:13:38.600 So have I ever explained what a, quote, husband apology is? Have you ever heard me say that?

00:13:50.920 If you've never heard this, perhaps you've never been in a marriage with a man and a woman.

00:13:57.560 Husband, you stupid husband doing that thing you did, whatever the thing is you did,

00:14:03.320 you owe me an apology. What'd I do? The thing you did. Now you're thinking to yourself,

00:14:09.560 I wasn't even in that room and I didn't have anything to do with it, but I definitely don't

00:14:13.800 want to be in this conversation any longer. So what do you think I did? Well, you moved the scissors

00:14:18.760 from the good drawer into the other drawer. And even if you didn't, what do you say?

00:14:25.320 Use the husband apology. Oh, I'm sorry. I, I'm sorry. I shouldn't move those scissors.

00:14:33.400 And then you're done because you said the apology. Did you mean it? No, of course not. Does it matter?

00:14:42.600 Not much. You just made the problem go away. So it's really about just making the problem go away.

00:14:50.840 Um, so California apologizes for its role in slavery, which was basically close to nothing

00:14:59.080 because it was not a slave state, but it did have, it did have some sketchy behavior to be fair.

00:15:06.280 For example, I believe that California would return escaped slaves. That would be supporting slavery.

00:15:15.560 So that's part of the apology. So, um,

00:15:20.120 Governor Newsom, whatever you want to say about him being, you know, slimy and lying and any of that other

00:15:28.600 stuff, he is really good at the politician stuff. And from the very beginning, it was obvious that

00:15:37.960 they weren't going to get money and that he was just setting them up for a husband apology.

00:15:45.240 He just wanted to send them away for, you know, a year. So he doesn't have to deal with it.

00:15:50.520 Because the main thing is, I don't want to deal with it. So he buys a year or so.

00:15:54.680 Cause they're go study it. Then they come back and say, oh, we'd like a trillion dollars or whatever

00:15:59.080 it was, something ridiculous. And then he says, yeah, that's great, but we don't have that money.

00:16:03.560 So I can't give that to you. It's politically impossible. Oh, well go back and study some more,

00:16:10.760 see what we can do. That doesn't involve giving you a bunch of money. They go back and study it

00:16:15.720 some more. And in the meantime, Newsom has solved his problem because they're not talking to him.

00:16:20.920 And then they finally come back and they've got this idea for what I call the husband apology for

00:16:27.400 slavery. And Newsom says, husband apology? Can do. Sure. Yeah. And on behalf of all the residents

00:16:37.480 of California, I would like to offer my insincere apologies as well. So to all descendants of slavery

00:16:46.440 and everybody who was impacted by systemic racism, on behalf of California, you have my insincere

00:16:53.880 apology. I'm sorry I did that to you. I really am. I won't do it again. I swear I will not introduce

00:17:00.760 slavery again. And if any, any escaped slaves ever come into my state, I'm not turning them over.

00:17:07.680 I promise you that. So anyway, racism has been solved in California. The rest of you

00:17:14.880 loser states need to catch up. You wonder why I live in this state. People say, why do you live

00:17:20.080 in California? It's the only state that solves racism. I'm not going to move to your segregated,

00:17:26.480 stupid ass states with all your racism. Come to California. We've solved that shit. We're way out of you.

00:17:33.120 Here's an interesting factoid related to this. Did you know that when Newsom first signed the

00:17:42.320 authority for the committee to go study reparations, when they came back, among their reparations were

00:17:47.920 separate schools for black kids? What's that called? Segregation. Segregation. That's what it's

00:17:59.840 called. So that's what California is apologizing for because the racial prejudice was imbued through

00:18:10.720 segregation, they say, in the apology. So we're apologizing as a state for something that the

00:18:20.720 reparation committee wanted to do more of because the segregation would solve the segregation of the

00:18:29.680 past. Okay. Maybe I don't fully understand this, but there's one thing I do understand that it's

00:18:35.840 this. I apologize. I apologize for all that. I'm so sorry. Are we cool now? Will you leave me alone now?

00:18:47.440 Please? All right. When I found out my friend got a great deal on a wool coat from winners,

00:18:54.560 I started wondering, is every fabulous item I see from winners? Like that woman over there with

00:19:01.140 the designer jeans. Are those from winners? Ooh, or those beautiful gold earrings? Did she pay full

00:19:06.960 price? Or that leather tote? Or that cashmere sweater? Or those knee-high boots? That dress?

00:19:12.200 That jacket? Those shoes? Is anyone paying full price for anything? Stop wondering. Start winning.

00:19:19.060 Winners. Find fabulous for less.

00:19:21.040 Well, we've got the new numbers. It's time to celebrate because the inflation numbers came in

00:19:27.640 at 2.2%, which is, we can celebrate this. It's below expectations that we're 2.3. Oh,

00:19:37.440 oh, standing ovation. We came in at 2.2 instead of 2.3. And let me give you some advice.

00:19:44.880 Once you're done accurately measuring the temperature of the entire Earth from the atmosphere down to the

00:19:53.000 bottom of the ocean, which we've been told we can do. Otherwise, climate change would just be a big

00:19:57.880 fucking joke. And we know that's not true. So we can measure the Earth. But did you know you can look

00:20:05.360 at every transaction in the United States and determine the inflation rate? And you'll get it

00:20:10.620 right the first time. And you can get it to within a tenth of a percentage.

00:20:17.600 So, no, you can't measure inflation this accurately. No, it's going to be revised.

00:20:24.920 And it's right on the cusp of being on target, which means a tiny little revision would make

00:20:31.240 it from less than you expected to more than you expected. The tiniest revision. Do you think that

00:20:36.720 they can measure inflation accurately enough in any given month, I guess, that they can know it's

00:20:44.040 off by a tenth? No, that's not a thing. But of course, we'll pretend it's a thing. And people say

00:20:52.380 that interest rates may be lowered by the Fed because of that. And the stock markets already

00:20:59.560 dance around because of that a little bit. Meanwhile, Hillary, the most despicable person

00:21:06.140 in the world, has doubled down on calling Trump supporters deplorable. And she said that for some

00:21:12.600 of them, it's too kind of a word. Yeah. So what I love is that she pulled out the deplorable thing.

00:21:22.380 Right before the election, which some people, including me, thought may have been the reason

00:21:28.580 she lost her election. And so she just saddled Kamala Harris with the deplorable thing because

00:21:34.880 we're going to think it's sort of a general Democrat feeling if Hillary Clinton is willing

00:21:41.200 to say it out loud. So that might make a difference. Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg has allegedly

00:21:48.960 identified as a libertarian because, you know, we keep wondering, is he going to endorse Trump?

00:21:54.060 I mean, he doesn't seem as anti-Trump as we'd expect, but we don't know. So he's found this

00:22:01.580 weak middle ground of being a libertarian. And he's hired a Republican strategist to help with

00:22:08.420 his relationship with the political right. But I think he's described himself privately as a classic

00:22:17.020 liberal, meaning a Democrat like the old days. That would be me.

00:22:22.240 I would say that I would be like an old school Democrat, which is not too far, with the exception

00:22:31.560 of abortion. It's not too far from Trump, actually, right today. So it would be anti-war and, you

00:22:40.000 know, a willingness to help the people who need help, but don't go crazy about it. That's about

00:22:45.220 where I am. But at the moment, if you are in that category of classic liberalism or something like

00:22:52.580 an old school Democrat, Trump is by far closer to your view. By far. It's not a, I mean, it's not

00:23:01.680 even a conversation, really. So that's why somebody like RFK Jr. and Nicole Shanahan and Bill

00:23:07.360 Blackman and Elon Musk and me. That's why we could be lifelong old Democrat farts and say,

00:23:17.360 you know what, the closest to that view is Trump right now, if you're just looking at common sense.

00:23:24.040 So we'll see where that goes. But I would say that Zuckerberg is playing this correctly.

00:23:30.340 You know, you can say to yourself, I wish people would be different, you know, but that's,

00:23:37.360 that's just your wish. But if you watch somebody who says, I got a problem. I'm putting some

00:23:43.940 resources toward fixing it and something worth fixing, which is his relationship with the

00:23:49.480 political right. I applaud that. I think if he can make a better case that he's just here to help

00:23:58.160 both sides and he doesn't do anything that would be negative for the political right. Good. You know,

00:24:05.300 I've said for a long time, and I'm sort of cribbing from other people who know him better. Zuckerberg

00:24:11.000 will go down as one of the best CEOs of all day, of all time. Would you agree with that? I mean,

00:24:17.080 you may hate some individual things he's done, but it's going to be tough to find a better CEO in the

00:24:24.760 history of the United States. So let's give him that. And if he's moving in the right direction of

00:24:31.180 just trying to see the whole field, good. Anybody wants to see the whole field? Excellent. All right.

00:24:39.460 I say the same thing about, you know, Jason from the All In Pod. You watching today, Jason? Your name

00:24:47.920 keeps coming up. No matter what you think of his current arguments, he is clearly making a public

00:24:55.380 attempt to understand both sides of the argument and see the whole field. Where that ends up, who knows?

00:25:02.120 It doesn't need to end up in any place for, you know, my, for my purposes. But anybody who's willing

00:25:09.800 to say, let me take some pain, you know, let me admit I don't know everything. Let me accept a little

00:25:15.900 pain to figure out what's going on on the other side. You know, I'll integrate that. 100%. I'm so down

00:25:23.260 with that point of view. I'm just trying to understand both sides. Meanwhile, Ashley Sinclair,

00:25:30.500 Sinclair, reminds us that in 2020, there were 82.2 million women who voted, but only 72.5 million

00:25:40.280 who voted. So nearly 10 million more votes for women in 2020. Now, I don't think that that will be

00:25:47.020 much changed unless the gap is even wider. Especially since, you know, abortions on the,

00:25:56.460 on the menu for this election. It's not really, but people feel like it is.

00:26:03.840 So let me add to this conversation. If it's true that there are 10 million more women voting than

00:26:09.820 men, I assume that something like that applies to every state. Is that a fair assumption? Do you

00:26:17.260 think there's any state where the men are voting in greater numbers than the women? I kind of doubt it.

00:26:22.440 There might be. There might be a special case. Yeah, there might be a special case. It might be a place

00:26:28.300 where there's a lot of male jobs, but not as many female jobs. Maybe Alaska, something like that.

00:26:35.180 But generally speaking, I would say if there are 10 million more women voting than men,

00:26:41.760 can the women, I just have one request from the women, and this will be mostly a request for

00:26:49.960 Democrats and left-leaning women. Can you stop bitching to the men about something you have

00:26:57.920 complete control over? If you have 10 million more voters, men have nothing to do with the abortion

00:27:03.720 laws. All you need to do is convince other women that you're right. If women don't agree with you,

00:27:12.380 don't put it on me. Right? By the way, I consider myself not part of the abortion argument because

00:27:21.180 I don't have babies, and I think women should work it out and then tell us what they decided

00:27:25.520 on the laws. I know you don't, and I'm not going to try to change your mind. I'm just telling you what

00:27:30.960 my position is. But really, this would be the strongest argument for Trump. Mr. Trump,

00:27:40.920 why are you blah, blah, blah, you put abortion at risk? The correct answer is 10 million more women

00:27:48.520 voted than men. Women have complete control over the laws on abortion in your states. There is a lag,

00:27:56.400 and I regret that the time lag will allow some people to not be getting what they want.

00:28:02.660 But our system does allow you to get it in the long run. It's going to take some work,

00:28:07.860 and I'm not sure that you should have abortion laws that are liberal. That's not my preference.

00:28:13.580 But the fact is, we live in a constitutional republic with a democratic layer, and if the women want this

00:28:21.960 by a solid, solid majority, maybe a little bit more than it is now, you can get anything you want.

00:28:27.980 Not just on abortion, by the way. If you have 10 million more voters, you get everything you want.

00:28:34.260 Everything. So stop complaining to men. This isn't about men at all. This is only about women now.

00:28:41.940 Abortion has left the domain of men versus women. It is just not in that domain. It is just women.

00:28:48.680 If women decide that it's going to be totally legal, it's not going to matter what men say.

00:28:55.460 It won't matter at all, because we won't be in the room with the doctor, and you can vote in any law you want.

00:29:05.180 I know you don't like that, because you think that the women will vote in more

00:29:08.280 liberal laws than you like.

00:29:11.480 But, all right, anyway.

00:29:18.620 And I think it's weird.

00:29:23.980 No, never mind.

00:29:27.200 So MSNBC had some expert, I guess, come on, who was saying that the Trump people, the Trump supporters,

00:29:38.460 they represent a different kind of masculinity.

00:29:41.760 You know, they have the, it's sort of an alpha, and what the expert called a retro masculinity.

00:29:47.980 Retro.

00:29:48.740 You know, old school masculinity, not the good stuff, like Doug Emhoff and Tim Walz.

00:29:53.820 So, the expert said that Emhoff and Walz, they've got this new kind of more, you know, acceptable kind of masculinity

00:30:04.280 in which they do not feel in any way diminished or disrespected if they can make space for women to succeed.

00:30:16.140 So, but I would like to add to that.

00:30:22.780 I'm not going to disagree with that whatsoever.

00:30:25.340 I do think that Doug Emhoff and Tim Walz make lots of space for women to succeed

00:30:29.380 by looking like the kind of people we wouldn't want in office.

00:30:34.580 So, that's two people who are removed from the competition for women.

00:30:38.820 But it should also be noted that the new kind of masculine men have other advantages, too.

00:30:45.900 I mean, it's not just that they're more supportive of women succeeding, which is great.

00:30:51.020 But they're also better with housework.

00:30:55.980 Way better at filling up the dishwasher.

00:30:59.840 Way better at basically all kinds of household cleaning and chores.

00:31:04.900 Now, they're not good for sex.

00:31:06.660 I think you all know that.

00:31:08.420 I think everybody agrees that the new kind of sensitive, non-alpha, non-retro masculinity, bad for sex, but excellent for housework.

00:31:20.640 And it's not a perfect world.

00:31:22.080 You can't have everything at the same time.

00:31:23.600 You've got to make some choices.

00:31:24.620 Be an adult, will you?

00:31:26.360 Be an adult.

00:31:27.100 You have to make choices.

00:31:28.700 And a lot of people have chosen a kind of man who's good for household chores and bad for sex.

00:31:34.620 My only warning is that they will be the men who are replaced with robots first, because robots are going to be good for household chores and bad for sex, at least for a while, maybe a few months.

00:31:54.080 They're probably only one software update away from being better at sex than beta men.

00:31:59.740 But there's your story.

00:32:03.440 All right.

00:32:04.820 I told you this before, but I keep laughing because it's so funny.

00:32:07.880 So Trump had this problem that the Democrats and the Harris campaign in particular and MSNBC kept saying that Trump was going to implement Project 2025, which was written by people who had been supporters of his, but he didn't have anything to do with it.

00:32:26.220 And had some, let's say, let's say, more extreme Republican right wing sort of policies than he would be likely to accept.

00:32:35.580 So he says he's not even, you know, that totally knowledgeable about what was even in that other plan.

00:32:41.660 He just disavows it as somebody else's work and says you should look at his own work.

00:32:46.760 But here's the problem.

00:32:47.560 Since when does reality and, you know, reason enter into anything?

00:32:54.160 It doesn't.

00:32:55.300 So he can say all day long, this wasn't my plan.

00:32:58.720 But as long as Harris can say, yeah, but it's your supporters plan.

00:33:03.760 That's close enough for political work.

00:33:07.340 Right.

00:33:08.180 In my opinion, he is going to completely ignore anything in that.

00:33:12.080 And he's going to do what he says he's going to do because we've seen him work for four years as president and we know how he operates.

00:33:18.980 There's not really any secrets there.

00:33:21.200 So.

00:33:23.240 He had this undefeatable problem.

00:33:26.960 You can't just say it's not true, because as long as your supporters put it together, which is true,

00:33:32.760 they're going to be able to paint it as true enough that you should not take a chance on somebody who has any kind of even connection to from the past or support from a group that might be pushing it on him.

00:33:50.800 So what's he do?

00:33:52.880 It's an unsolvable problem.

00:33:54.560 So he comes up with his own Project 2025 hoax for Kavala Harris, and then he takes all the things that she said in the past, which she says today she doesn't support, like reparations and taking your guns and stuff like that.

00:34:11.520 And he puts it on the list and says, here's your Project 2025.

00:34:16.180 And I say, wait a minute.

00:34:19.100 Won't they just say it's not true?

00:34:22.060 Yes, they will.

00:34:22.920 Will that work?

00:34:25.660 Nope.

00:34:27.660 It's exactly the same play.

00:34:29.520 They can say it's not true all day, but if they do, they're going to have to talk about what's on it that's not true.

00:34:35.820 Here's the second question.

00:34:37.180 It's not true?

00:34:38.880 Well, what on the list do you disagree with?

00:34:42.020 Well, I disagree with reparations.

00:34:44.400 Well, why is that on the list?

00:34:45.960 Because I used to say that I loved reparations.

00:34:49.320 What changed your mind?

00:34:51.180 Did slavery go away?

00:34:52.920 No, no, slavery, slavery, of course, did not go away.

00:34:56.780 Did systemic racism go away?

00:35:00.840 No, no, it's worse than ever.

00:35:02.800 So all the reasons you were in favor of reparation before have not changed.

00:35:09.480 Well, that's true, but I still have to run for office.

00:35:16.420 And, you know, if we don't win, we don't get anything.

00:35:19.280 So just being practical about winning the office so we can get at least some things that Democrats want.

00:35:27.020 And you lose.

00:35:29.040 Because nobody's going to want to put in office somebody who really, really wants the reparations.

00:35:36.820 I'll just pick one of the things on the list, reparations just as a stand-in as one thing you don't like.

00:35:42.060 If you think that the moment she had the ability to do it, she would do it.

00:35:46.820 Compare that to Trump and a national abortion ban.

00:35:52.140 If Trump had the ability to get a national abortion ban to pass, I don't think there's any chance he would do it.

00:36:01.180 Because he said he opposes it.

00:36:03.340 I actually believe him when he says that stuff.

00:36:06.860 One of the things about Trump is that he was simultaneously the biggest offender to the fact-checkers.

00:36:13.960 He's, I'll just say it that way, you know, he had the most fact-checks against him, which the Democrats would call the most lies, which then they translate into he's, you know, dishonest.

00:36:25.360 But I don't think I've seen any politician who is more honest to his own opinions.

00:36:31.940 Meaning that if he said he wanted to build a wall, he didn't get it done.

00:36:36.720 But damn, did he try hard.

00:36:38.580 Like, you can directly see, said X, tried really hard to get X.

00:36:45.580 It's the best you can get.

00:36:47.320 You know, well, I mean, it'd be great if he succeeded.

00:36:50.120 But sometimes things take longer.

00:36:53.780 You've got to press harder.

00:36:55.440 You know, it might take two terms.

00:36:57.340 So he's very true to what he says he's going to do, even if it doesn't work out.

00:37:02.740 But I vastly prefer that over somebody who's got to, you know, technically use the right data in his argument all the time.

00:37:11.640 I don't care about that.

00:37:13.580 I do care if he tries to do the right things.

00:38:17.960 North Carolina Election Board has reportedly removed over 700,000 ineligible voters.

00:38:25.180 Makes you wonder how many ineligible voters have voted in past elections.

00:38:31.560 There are 700,000 of them in one state.

00:38:36.500 Not our biggest state.

00:38:38.780 Not our biggest one.

00:38:40.400 700,000 ineligible voters.

00:38:43.920 If those ineligible voters had somehow gotten a mail-in ballot and then voted, would they have got it?

00:38:52.760 I don't know.

00:38:55.460 Don't you think that would be the most important thing about this story?

00:38:58.540 It's not in the story.

00:39:00.460 The most important thing is, if this had been abused as a way to cheat in the past, would we have caught it?

00:39:09.460 Is there some part of the system where they go, hey, this person whose vote I have in my hand and this mail-in ballot, they are not an eligible voter.

00:39:19.980 I've just checked, and even though they're on the roll as an eligible voter, because remember, they only just took them off.

00:39:26.780 So if they saw that it was on the list of eligible voters, how would they know they're not eligible?

00:39:33.020 Are they going to check their death certificates during the election?

00:39:37.300 I don't think so.

00:39:38.920 I think they're going to say you're on the list, you're eligible.

00:39:42.760 So how are you feeling about those elections?

00:39:46.260 How about that election integrity?

00:39:47.860 Okay.

00:39:49.980 Let me put it all together for you.

00:39:53.740 We can measure the temperature of the Earth, including all of the atmosphere and the bottom of the ocean, for hundreds of years.

00:40:02.840 And we're all accurate.

00:40:04.960 Not only that, but we can determine the exact inflation rate very quickly and on time, and it will be correct within a tenth of a point.

00:40:14.500 Yeah.

00:40:14.940 So, not only that, but our elections are pristine, pristine.

00:40:25.620 Never had a rigging problem?

00:40:27.300 Never will.

00:40:27.900 It's really unbelievable, the things that we've been told.

00:40:34.580 None of these things are even a little bit possible.

00:40:37.700 It's not even a little bit possible that you can measure the temperature of the Earth, humans.

00:40:41.600 We can't do that.

00:40:43.020 We can't do that.

00:40:43.920 That we can calculate inflation.

00:40:46.300 I'm sorry.

00:40:50.860 Not inflation.

00:40:51.740 Yeah, inflation.

00:40:52.620 If we can calculate inflation and we can do a vote and we would know if there were too many illegal votes and it changed the...

00:41:01.280 We can't do that.

00:41:02.580 We have no ability in our current system to know who won an election.

00:41:07.020 We don't know how to know the temperature and we don't know the inflation.

00:41:11.500 If you believe any of those things can be measured in a reliable way, you are completely brainwashed.

00:41:19.680 There's no reason, sensibility, data.

00:41:24.040 There's nothing to support any of those thoughts.

00:41:27.300 We can't measure the temperature.

00:41:29.320 We can't measure inflation.

00:41:31.060 We don't know who wins any elections.

00:41:33.040 We're going to have to live with that because that's our current situation.

00:41:39.400 All right.

00:41:40.540 Harris is going to go to the...

00:41:42.040 Oh, it looks like...

00:41:43.720 So here's another election thing.

00:41:46.220 So we found out that 1% of the voters in one of the very blue counties in the swing state in Wisconsin got duplicate ballots.

00:41:56.060 1% in a very important part of a swing state got duplicate ballots in a place where the entire election might come down to 1%, which wouldn't be unusual at all.

00:42:12.340 And the question is, is it a coincidence that every time we find one of these little errors, it goes in the same direction?

00:42:24.340 Or could potentially, because there are more Democrats voting by mail.

00:42:32.120 So here's what I think.

00:42:33.580 I worry that the Democrats have come upon a cheating strategy.

00:42:40.240 And again, I'm only speculating.

00:42:41.960 This is not based on any data or anything.

00:42:45.200 And my speculation is the best way they could hide election rigging is what I call the multiple oops strategy.

00:42:53.580 So if you looked at this, 1% of voters got duplicate ballots, you'd say to yourself, but wait, they can vote twice.

00:43:04.640 And then once they get caught, but only after they get caught, they say, oops, well, that was a rare, weird mistake.

00:43:14.120 Then later, you find out that there are a bunch of dead people on the voting lists.

00:43:20.060 And then once you find out, but only after you found out, you take them off and you say, oops, oops, didn't see that coming.

00:43:31.840 How many ways can you say oops before it looks coordinated?

00:43:36.960 I feel like there's going to be a whole bunch of accidental little mistakes.

00:43:43.100 Like, well, you know, we meant to put a drop box in that Republican area, but I don't know, it's missing from the spreadsheet.

00:43:51.100 So are you telling me there's no drop box in the Republican areas?

00:43:54.300 Oops.

00:43:55.440 Oops.

00:43:57.240 What?

00:43:57.660 The post office in that red area, one of the employees was bad and left a whole truckload of ballots that probably were going to go to Trump,

00:44:08.480 left them in a parking lot until the election was over.

00:44:11.680 Oops.

00:44:12.460 Oops.

00:44:12.820 Well, that was just one guy.

00:44:14.600 Oops.

00:44:15.900 I feel like the multiple oops strategy has been implemented, whereby there can be enough oopses to change the election for sure.

00:44:25.180 But if you're going to look at any one of them, it doesn't look like a plot.

00:44:29.060 It looks like oops.

00:44:31.340 Ordinary human mistake.

00:44:33.160 Just happened to be in the same direction every single time.

00:44:36.480 So look for the oops strategy.

00:44:38.620 I don't know it, but it feels like it's coming.

00:44:41.060 Kamala Harris is going to go to the border to pretend that she did not ruin the country in the last three and a half years of absolutely disgusting, despicable, deplorable, dare I say,

00:44:54.400 behavior in terms of protecting the Americans from the onslaught of uncontrolled, I'm going to call it uncontrolled, even though they say it's controlled, immigration.

00:45:06.100 So we'll have plenty to mock, but it might be enough for the dumb Democrats to think she's doing something about the border.

00:45:15.220 And it will be a pure propaganda move.

00:45:18.940 But even more interesting, there are three things happening today.

00:45:22.120 I guess Netanyahu is giving some address, I think, to the UN or is he in America?

00:45:28.300 Anyway, Netanyahu is going to be saying something that's going to be news.

00:45:32.600 And Trump is apparently meeting Zelensky today.

00:45:36.340 He may already be doing it.

00:45:38.560 Trump is meeting Zelensky.

00:45:41.260 You know what's interesting about that?

00:45:43.000 Yeah.

00:45:45.220 Oh, I'm being asked, Scott, do you think the coordinated multiple oops applies to the Trump assassinations?

00:45:53.260 No, I don't.

00:45:56.180 No, because that would require that all the people who made a mistake were in on it.

00:46:01.900 It would be easy to imagine that all the people who who make the oops in the election are in on it because they don't feel like they're going to jail for it.

00:46:11.180 Right.

00:46:11.620 They feel like if they get caught, they just go, oops, well, we'll correct that right away.

00:46:16.700 Right.

00:46:17.260 If they can make it look like a mistake.

00:46:19.140 I don't imagine there would be like six people on the Secret Service and the local police who are all in on the plot.

00:46:29.720 That would be that would be that would be a little too much for my imagination to get there.

00:46:35.100 It's a good question, though.

00:46:36.300 I like that question.

00:46:38.180 That was a good test of the thinking.

00:46:39.900 But anyway, Trump's going to meet Zelensky today.

00:46:43.700 And here's what's interesting.

00:46:46.040 I don't think this is going to happen.

00:46:49.200 But Trump could end the war today.

00:46:51.140 He could absolutely end it today.

00:46:56.600 Do you know how he could do it?

00:46:59.560 He just tells Zelensky, here's the deal.

00:47:02.920 If you wrap things up before I get in office, you're going to get the best deal that you can get.

00:47:08.860 If you wait for me to get in office, both you and Putin are going to be way worse off.

00:47:16.460 You better do it before I get elected.

00:47:19.400 And damn it, I'm going to get elected.

00:47:22.900 So.

00:47:24.260 Could you scare Zelensky into saying, oh, shit.

00:47:28.780 If Trump comes in, the war is still going to end, but I'll probably be removed.

00:47:34.080 Yeah.

00:47:35.100 Right.

00:47:36.280 The war is going to end either way.

00:47:39.600 Let's put it this way.

00:47:41.020 Imagine Trump saying behind closed doors, perfectly privately.

00:47:44.760 Look, here's the deal.

00:47:45.800 We both know this is going to wind down when I'm president.

00:47:50.420 If you'd like to still be in power, you're going to do it now.

00:47:54.940 And you're going to say that you talked to me.

00:47:57.620 You thought that I was going to win.

00:47:59.560 And you thought that it would make sense for you to get the best deal you can now.

00:48:03.480 Don't mention the part about you're not going to be in charge anymore if I'm in charge.

00:48:07.000 Just say, because you assume that an American president can remove the Ukrainian president.

00:48:13.400 We all assume that, right?

00:48:15.720 We assume there's sort of a, what would you call it, a puppet state at this point.

00:48:20.460 So one way or another with funding or something.

00:48:24.120 Yeah.

00:48:24.240 We could just say, we will give no reconstruction money to Ukraine unless you get rid of Zelensky.

00:48:30.780 Done.

00:48:31.820 Right.

00:48:32.080 So I would threaten him and say, if you want to be in power when I come to power, you're going to wrap it up before I get there and you're going to give me credit for it.

00:48:41.340 Then he goes to Putin and he says, here's the deal.

00:48:46.920 If you wrap things up in a way that people think is reasonable and you do it now, then we're good when I come into office.

00:48:56.500 If I come into office and you're still doing this yet, I'm going to go so hard at you, you won't know I hear you.

00:49:02.220 And then he ends the war.

00:49:06.900 Because you know what is interesting about those threats?

00:49:10.620 They're all completely doable.

00:49:13.340 They're all completely reasonable.

00:49:16.860 And history would judge Trump well if they knew every bit of it.

00:49:22.360 The Ukrainians would be better off.

00:49:24.600 The Russian people would be better off.

00:49:26.560 Europe would be better off.

00:49:27.800 America would be better off.

00:49:29.840 They all want it to end.

00:49:31.280 And everybody wants it to end.

00:49:35.040 He could end the war today.

00:49:37.680 Now, again, I'm going to persuade against that.

00:49:41.480 I don't think he's going to do that.

00:49:43.220 You know, that would be.

00:49:44.140 And it might seem it might be illegal.

00:49:47.280 It might be illegal for him to negotiate with a foreign power when he's not in office.

00:49:51.660 So I would ask about the legalities of that.

00:49:55.140 But it's not impossible.

00:49:57.120 If nobody is listening.

00:49:58.480 And he knows it's private, although that would be I doubt he could ever get a private conversation.

00:50:04.440 But if he knew he was private, he could end the war.

00:50:09.900 Who disagrees?

00:50:11.840 Do you disagree with that statement?

00:50:13.960 He could put he could put the threat of so much pain on both the leaders that would be completely credible.

00:50:21.420 All you have to say is Zelensky, you're out of a job.

00:50:24.060 And basically, people are going to kill you as soon as you're out of the job.

00:50:26.560 That would be a real threat.

00:50:29.200 And you tell Putin, here's the deal.

00:50:32.120 You make me happy about ending this war.

00:50:34.920 And everything's going to go better for you than if you don't.

00:50:38.500 And Putin's going to know that's true.

00:50:40.980 That would be a very solid threat that I think the entire world would take seriously.

00:50:46.900 So you would be giving both sides an easy out, given that they know they have to get out, right?

00:50:53.580 This is not the forever war and it's not the war where one side is going to win.

00:50:57.440 So they both want out.

00:50:58.920 They just need somebody else to force it.

00:51:02.500 Here it is.

00:51:03.960 Here's the somebody else to force it.

00:51:06.400 See, this is why Trump is not just good at his job.

00:51:11.220 Trump, he's a one-off.

00:51:15.820 And I can't say enough about that.

00:51:17.980 There's only one Trump.

00:51:20.200 You can put Trump in some situations, not all of them.

00:51:24.000 He's not perfect for every situation.

00:51:26.100 But there are some situations that only a Trump can solve.

00:51:31.080 And he built himself into that person.

00:51:34.340 And you could take a hundred really good politicians and put them in that same position.

00:51:40.240 They would do nothing.

00:51:41.980 I'll take somebody I like.

00:51:44.400 Let's take DeSantis.

00:51:46.540 DeSantis, I have a very high opinion of.

00:51:49.220 Very solid citizen character, performance as a governor.

00:51:56.400 Solid, solid guy.

00:51:57.960 Wouldn't mind to see him president someday.

00:51:59.940 Wouldn't mind it at all.

00:52:01.880 Could he solve this in one day?

00:52:03.440 No, no.

00:52:05.280 Absolutely not.

00:52:06.840 But Trump could.

00:52:09.000 He's just one-off.

00:52:10.080 There's only one of them.

00:52:11.960 He's the only person who could solve a war in a day.

00:52:14.460 So when he said that, that didn't even seem a little bit like hyperbole to me.

00:52:20.120 Now, I don't think it's going to happen, right?

00:52:22.540 I'm betting against it.

00:52:24.080 But there's nothing that would stop it.

00:52:25.800 Except, you know, if it's illegal, then that's a good reason not to do it.

00:52:30.460 Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.

00:52:33.680 I've been visualizing my match all week.

00:52:36.220 She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her backhand side.

00:52:41.180 Good thing Claudia's with Intact, the insurer with the largest network of auto service centers in the country.

00:52:47.940 Everything was taken care of under one roof, and she was on her way in a rental car in no time.

00:52:52.400 I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.

00:52:55.800 But you got there on time.

00:52:57.720 Intact Insurance, your auto service ace.

00:53:00.340 Certain conditions apply.

00:53:01.260 All right.

00:53:05.200 Kamala Harris has said that the rich people should pay their fair share of the corporations and the billionaires, and that's her tax policy.

00:53:13.360 Don't make me give you details.

00:53:14.960 I just want people to pay their fair share.

00:53:17.380 And if I said fair share enough, hey, I've got some words you'd like to hear.

00:53:21.220 Fair share, fair share, fair share.

00:53:23.920 Now, you can't beat that because there's no details to argue against.

00:53:27.880 Fair share, fair share, fair share, fair share.

00:53:28.880 So there's a trick I've taught you in persuasion.

00:53:32.220 It's called entering the illusion.

00:53:34.900 So rather than saying, you dumb bitch, there's no such thing as a fair share of anything, don't do that.

00:53:41.400 That would be sexist and wrong.

00:53:43.940 So here's the right way to do it without all that sexist bad stuff.

00:53:47.960 You don't want that.

00:53:49.680 You enter the illusion, and you ask them to help you calculate fairness.

00:53:55.260 And you say, can you give us some details?

00:53:57.460 I'd like to know what's fair. I'm a billionaire and I'd like to pay my fair share. So I did some

00:54:03.620 work on this on X. Let me share this with you. And I said, I'm going to need a little help

00:54:09.340 figuring out how to calculate it. So really just a calculation problem. I'm buying the illusion,

00:54:15.860 right? I'm accepting the illusion and I'm moving inside it. The illusion is that there's something

00:54:20.340 called fair. And that if you work a little harder, you can figure out what that is.

00:54:25.760 That's complete ridiculousness. But if you say that's complete ridiculousness, people will look

00:54:30.960 at you and say, no, it's not. No, that's crazy. And they look at you and go, oh, that's what the

00:54:37.980 billionaire selfish people say. And you say, no, really, there's fairness. It's just like this

00:54:44.320 weird subjective thing you say. There's no objective standard. There's not even any way to

00:54:49.120 calculate such a thing. Yes, there is. Right. So you can't get anywhere if you stay outside the

00:54:55.720 illusion. Outside the illusion, you have no weapons. You got to get inside it. Inside it says,

00:55:03.780 all right, I accept your frame, that there's something called fairness and we have not achieved

00:55:08.980 it. So let's calculate it. Let's figure out how to figure that out from inside the frame.

00:55:14.100 So I said, how would I do that? I said, for example, during my adult life, I've paid about

00:55:20.080 10 times as much taxes as the average citizen because things have gone well. I've made a lot

00:55:25.560 of money in my life. And I consume relatively little in public services.

00:55:29.600 So how much will my taxes be cut? And how much would you raise the taxes on the middle class

00:55:38.800 to get me back to fair? Because I think you would agree that if I pay more than I consume,

00:55:45.560 well, that's not fair. Oh, oh, is that not your definition of fairness?

00:55:50.160 Yes. But that's fair. The fair is that you pay for what you use. Why would I pay for more than I

00:55:57.940 use while somebody else is getting stuff and not paying? That's fair. And if you say that is fair,

00:56:06.140 say it out loud. Just tell me that's your standard. It's something else. Or how about this? We look at

00:56:13.380 the raw dollar amount without looking at who consumed what. So forget about, let's say we forget about the

00:56:19.100 part of who used the public services. If you just do the dollar amount, well, here again, I paid 10

00:56:26.620 times more than other people. So I'm expecting a big tax cut and maybe raising the taxes substantially

00:56:33.460 on the middle class to get to fairness, to get to fairness. Oh, okay. So we're not going to just

00:56:40.920 count the dollar amount, but there's still other ways to do this. There are lots of ways to calculate

00:56:44.540 this. How about we just factor in hours worked so that the people who work the most hours

00:56:51.660 are incentivized. Isn't that fair? That the people who work the most would get a little tax break

00:56:59.600 because they contributed the most. Now here I'm including, you could be working the most as a CEO

00:57:06.760 or you could be working the most as a garbage collector, a plumber. It doesn't matter what your job is.

00:57:12.280 If you're putting in lots of hours, maybe that should give you a tax cut. Well, I worked seven

00:57:19.260 days a week most of my life, probably 60 hours a week on average. So I'd be looking for a big tax cut

00:57:25.960 because I'm one of those people who put in longer hours because you should make more money if you

00:57:31.200 work longer hours, right? Isn't that fair? The people who work harder get more money. I think we all

00:57:37.860 agree with that. That's fair. So that would give me a big old, big old tax cut. Or we could go by

00:57:43.480 percentages. Percentages would be good if you don't want to go by raw dollar amounts. Let's figure out

00:57:49.240 what's fair on percentages. Let's see. I'm in California, so we got a lot of state taxes.

00:57:55.160 It's over 13% now. And if you add my federal taxes to that, my property taxes, and my sales taxes,

00:58:01.860 taxes, I pay around 60% of my income in taxes. 60%. So that would be a lot more than the middle

00:58:10.280 class. So again, I would expect a big tax cut to get me back in the range of fairness, which would be

00:58:17.800 something under 50% probably. It could still be progressive, by the way. I'm not arguing against

00:58:26.620 progressive tax rates. You can still be progressive, but you'd still have to give me a big, big tax cut.

00:58:34.480 Or that's not the only way. So we've got the raw dollar, the hours work, the percentages, those would

00:58:41.400 all give me a tax cut. But there's another way. We could tax the unrealized gains on assets. Now,

00:58:47.720 that's what Harris is recommending, the unrealized gains. So for example, if you owned an asset,

00:58:56.640 a farm, say, and it had tripled in value, she'll start taxing you on how much it went up in value,

00:59:03.880 which is a problem because the only way you'd be able to pay such a tax is by selling your farm

00:59:08.380 or part of it. So that would be called not so much taxation. There's another word for that.

00:59:16.340 What do you call it when you take from somebody something that they have and you'd been told

00:59:22.620 that they could keep it? That'd be called theft, theft. The word is theft. That would be government

00:59:28.820 theft of something you'd already paid taxes on, put into an investment form, and then they told you

00:59:36.500 you couldn't keep it. They're going to take some of it. Theft. Now, you could pursue that to give

00:59:42.820 fairness and that would achieve fairness. I know this is going to surprise you. I do consider that

00:59:49.900 fair. And what I mean by fair is I would get the fuck out of this country. I'd move to El Salvador

00:59:55.280 or somewhere that doesn't do that. And I'd go get me some fairness. And then everybody who stayed and

01:00:00.560 loved it, they'd be living in the country they loved because it'd be all fair. But all the smart

01:00:04.660 people who make some money would get the fuck out of this losing bitch ass country that's trying to

01:00:09.660 steal our money. And I'll go anywhere to keep your paws off of what I worked my entire life

01:00:16.040 to keep. But the main point here is not which point which these methods you pick. The main point is I'd

01:00:25.640 like to get inside your illusion. Let's do a little calculating and let's show our work.

01:00:30.100 Meanwhile, Mayor Adams, no relationship to me in New York. He's being indicted for, it's a little

01:00:40.140 murky to me just because I haven't looked at the details. It's not murky, but to me it is. So I guess

01:00:46.340 he accepted a bunch of business upgrade luxury travel stuff from some entity in Turkey. At the same time,

01:00:54.240 he was being asked to help get some approvals of a building that the Turks wanted built in New York

01:01:02.020 City that had been held up by some kind of regulatory thing. And he did. So the news says he

01:01:09.080 did intervene. And I think it made a difference. It may have sped it up. Now, should he go to jail

01:01:15.880 for that? So he accepted luxury travel from some Turks who asked him for a political favor in

01:01:23.420 return, which allegedly he did. He did the favor. So that's a bribe, right? No, it isn't. No, it

01:01:34.800 isn't. Now, put me on the jury. Can you put me on the jury? Let me explain how this works. Telling an

01:01:43.840 entity in New York City, while you're the mayor, that they should hurry up in their regulatory stuff

01:01:49.780 because there's no reason it's been delayed. That's your job. That's your job. In fact, I've

01:01:58.040 done that. I've told you this story before. Years ago when I was in my 20s, I had some issue with the

01:02:05.160 government and entity within the government. So I wrote a letter to my California senator. It was Pete

01:02:13.040 Wilson at the time. And I said, I've got a problem with this other government entity. They're holding

01:02:19.280 something up. And they said, we'll look into it. And then I said to myself, well, that's the end of

01:02:24.900 that. They're definitely not going to look into it. And then they followed up. And they said, we looked

01:02:30.820 into it. And they actually got me what I wanted. Because when they looked into it, there wasn't really

01:02:36.180 a reason for the delay. So the delay stopped. And a whole bunch of people benefited. Because

01:02:43.120 Senator P. Wilson did a great job for a member of his state. I described a situation where he could

01:02:52.100 just do his normal job for his constituents. Then he would do his normal job and we'd be happier.

01:02:58.320 And then he did his normal job and now we're happier. So Turkey gives him some luxury

01:03:03.560 accommodations. How much do I care? Not at all. Not even a little bit. If somebody who's a high

01:03:12.920 level person who could garner that kind of thing, fine. It doesn't bother me a bit. I wouldn't care

01:03:20.360 if China paid for it or Putin. I'm happy he was comfortable. No problem. Now, maybe there should

01:03:29.300 have been some disclosure or something. I don't know. But I don't care about it. Now, do I care

01:03:34.380 that Turkey, in return, now that they had sort of a relationship, they used their relationship.

01:03:41.280 Is that illegal? Is it illegal to form a relationship and then use it for access? No. No,

01:03:49.480 that's not illegal. And then they asked for something that would actually be the job of a mayor

01:03:54.440 to make sure that something that's being held up in red tape gets solved. So then he went and solved

01:04:01.180 their building problem. Was that bad for New York City? Is it bad for New York City that a building

01:04:06.260 gets built fast and accurately and then it gets filled with tenants who pay rent? No, it's good for

01:04:12.600 New York City. That's his job. His job is to make sure New York City runs. Now, I think there was a

01:04:20.380 a related part where some Turkish or other funders were doing some kind of fake grassroots

01:04:28.040 donations to make it look like it wasn't one entity. Now, that stuff just sounds illegal.

01:04:36.160 But I don't know the extent to which the mayor Adams was even involved with that. So that part I have

01:04:44.200 some questions about. But the part where Turkey gives them some nice trips and then asks them to do

01:04:49.560 his job and then he does his job and it's good for New York City and it's good for Turkey.

01:04:54.880 That's a little bit too much. I mean, to me, that looks like lawfare. It just looks like lawfare.

01:05:01.500 And although we don't know this for sure, it would suggest that maybe the real problem there is that

01:05:07.940 he was anti or he wanted to be tougher on immigration and that was causing a problem for

01:05:13.440 the administration. So they lawfare. Could be.

01:05:19.180 Well, in the news, Black Lives Matter of Greater New York got a little tension because they're very

01:05:24.920 much opposed to Mayor Adams. Now, they just say he's a bad mayor and they've got all kinds of

01:05:31.020 complaints about him in general, not just this. But who do you think was the representative of Black

01:05:36.200 Lives Matter of Greater New York? Well, it's our old friend, Hawk Newsom. Hawk Newsom.

01:05:43.440 Now, if you don't follow the news closely, you might confuse Hawk Newsom with Hawk Tui.

01:05:51.960 Completely different. Well, as far as I know, maybe he's been to a ditty party. Maybe he hasn't.

01:05:59.380 I don't know. But in general, I'm going to assume that Hawk Newsom and Hawk Tui are completely

01:06:05.740 different concepts. So don't get that confused with the story whatsoever.

01:06:08.940 So Hawk is a co-founder of Black Lives Matter of Greater New York with his sister, who was also with

01:06:17.720 him, who is the other co-founder. And they were against Mayor Adams, despite the fact that it's Black

01:06:26.960 Lives Matter and he's black. Now, if you didn't know anything about, let's say, the background of

01:06:34.680 this story, you might accept it a little bit differently than I do. Because I got to work

01:06:40.900 with Hawk Newsom back in the original BLM days, 2020, probably. No. When was it? 2018 or something?

01:06:50.320 I forget. But I think that Hawk got excommunicated from Black Lives Matter, the national version.

01:06:59.620 So I think he's got sort of his own little local thing. I'd be surprised if there are more than 10

01:07:05.780 people in his organization. I think it's under 10 people. But he's really good at getting attention and

01:07:13.080 getting in front of the camera and making his point. But it's funny that Black Lives Matter kind

01:07:18.140 of got disgraced and we don't hear about him much. And when they do come back in the news, they're

01:07:22.700 against the black guy. Now, I'm not going to say that they don't have a point, because I do not know

01:07:31.160 the performance of Mayor Adams as mayor. So maybe they have really good points. Maybe they don't. I don't

01:07:38.080 know one way or the other. But it's definitely not something coming from Black Lives Matter. It's coming

01:07:44.120 from Hawk. And, you know, maybe two or three people agreed with him in his organization. That's

01:07:49.800 it. That's the whole story. It's Hawk, his sister, and maybe two or three other people. National

01:08:20.040 There's a new poll, Emerson College, that says that Harris is way ahead in New York State. Now,

01:08:29.520 everybody expected that. But she's, according to them, she's pulling 54 to 40. That's a big difference.

01:08:37.960 However, just for some recreational fun, there are eight to nine million people who live in New York

01:08:46.020 City. Mayor Adams would be the most powerful political figure among that eight or nine million.

01:08:55.500 And at least there was, I think there was a two million difference of votes in New York State

01:09:02.880 between Biden and Trump, two million voters. So he could influence a population of eight or nine

01:09:11.680 million. Of course, they're not all voters. And the old margin was only two million. It looks like it

01:09:18.160 might be a bigger margin this time, but it could be smaller because remember, this is just one poll and

01:09:23.920 we don't trust the polls. So it does seem to me that, well, let me speculate. How many of you think

01:09:32.960 that Mayor Adams is a good negotiator? We don't know. But what do you think? So he was a police chief

01:09:42.580 and now he's a New York City mayor. Could you possibly do those jobs without being a tough

01:09:48.960 negotiator just in general? Because he's probably negotiated with everything from criminal people to

01:09:54.800 every bureaucracy to his own political party. He's probably really good at negotiating, right?

01:10:02.960 Now imagine you're in a room with him during the time he was complaining the most about the migrant

01:10:08.440 burden on the city. If he's talking to a Democrat who's stonewalling him and saying, nope, you're not

01:10:16.720 going to get anything for your city. No, we really, really need it. The migrant thing is killing us.

01:10:22.460 Nope, you're not going to get a thing. Okay. I don't think you understand. We need this. You're

01:10:28.840 killing me. Politically, you're killing me. And you're killing my city. Nope, you're not going to get

01:10:34.740 a thing. What would you do? You're all alone in the room. There's an important Democrat sitting there

01:10:41.700 who's just giving you nothing. I'll tell you what I'd do. If I were a good negotiator, I'd say this.

01:10:49.740 Let's say you realize that Trump would do something about this. What are you saying? Are you saying you

01:10:59.140 would endorse Trump? No, I'm saying I'll consider it. I'm still waiting for you to help me.

01:11:07.160 But if you don't, yes, I'm going to consider endorsing Trump. Now, this is a speculative,

01:11:17.960 just imaginary conversation. But if you put me in the room, I'd say it. If you made me a lifelong

01:11:23.940 Democrat, and you put me in the situation that Mayor Adams was in, you put me in a room with one

01:11:28.760 powerful Democrat who's giving me fuck nothing, I'm going to say, you are my problem. I can't be in

01:11:36.520 this party if you can act like that. And while I hate 10 things that the Republicans do, I'm going

01:11:42.840 to endorse them because this is the biggest problem in New York City. So you fucker, if you stay this

01:11:49.700 way, I'm going to go public and endorse Trump. Good luck with that. Now, I would have decided even if

01:11:56.900 I didn't mean it, because there's negotiations. You don't always say things you mean when you're

01:12:03.460 negotiating. You just want to make them think about it, think maybe it's a risk. Now, imagine

01:12:08.240 if that person took that conversation back to the people in power. They'd have to destroy him

01:12:13.320 just because the risk. Even before he said a word, they'd have to say, okay, we're going to have to

01:12:19.380 destroy him so that if he does come out in favor of Trump, it's going to look like a desperation move

01:12:24.520 for his political future. It won't look like it's a real opinion. We have to destroy him first.

01:12:29.760 That's what it looks like. The other possibility is he broke some laws, and I don't know all the

01:12:36.900 details, and they caught him. But we don't really live in a world where we see that work as much as

01:12:43.440 the other thing, where it's just lawfare. If we were not in the middle of the deepest lawfare

01:12:49.500 darkness we've ever seen, I wouldn't even consider that possibility. But since that's the go-to at the

01:12:56.260 moment, I do consider it. Speaking of lawfare, you will be happy to know that Attorney General

01:13:06.720 Andrew Bailey of Missouri has filed suit against the Harris-Biden DOJ for refusing to turn over

01:13:14.440 records related to the illicit, what A.G. Bailey calls the illicit prosecution of President Trump.

01:13:22.700 So this would include communication between the DOJ and Alvin Bragg, Letitia James, and Fannie Willis.

01:13:29.400 Those would be the prosecutors, A.G.'s, attorney generals who were going after, let's see, Bragg is

01:13:37.280 the DA. Yeah, so they're all DAs going after Trump. Now, so the point here is to find out if there was

01:13:44.480 any coordination between the Department of Justice on behalf of the Harris-Biden administration

01:13:50.840 to help these local prosecutors do their thing and maybe even promise them something in return.

01:13:58.900 Possibly. Now, so the suit that's being filed, if I understand it correctly, is because they've

01:14:07.160 already asked for this information through legal means, they have a right to it, and they're not

01:14:12.780 getting it. So they're being stonewalled probably until after the election. You know what I mean?

01:14:19.620 So if you haven't been following Attorney General Andrew Bailey from Missouri, I would strongly

01:14:27.540 recommend he's a really good follow on X, because a lot of the good things pushing back in a legal

01:14:35.680 sense, a lot of the pushback coming from the Republicans is coming from only a few sources,

01:14:40.320 right? You'll see DeSantis do his thing. You'll see Texas do their thing. But you've got to watch

01:14:48.460 Missouri. So Missouri is a real wild card because Bailey's there and he's doing a great job. So this

01:14:55.240 is his follow-up. He's pushing a second time harder to see what he can get. What if he gets something

01:15:02.180 before the election? Talk about a third act. The ultimate third act would look like this.

01:15:12.140 Finding out that the assassination attempts had some connection to our own government.

01:15:18.620 Yowch. Finding out that our elections were in fact rigged in the past. I'm not predicting it. I'm

01:15:26.180 just saying what would be the best movie ending. And finding out that they had coordinated the lawfare

01:15:32.340 from the administration. Those would be sort of the three worst suspicions. And there's some chance,

01:15:41.560 not a high one, there's some chance, non-zero, that all three of these would be revealed in the next

01:15:50.840 month. I would definitely bet against it. I'd bet against any one of them being revealed in the next

01:15:57.240 month. Because I don't have any direct evidence of any of it. But my goodness, would that make a movie?

01:16:06.860 What a movie that would be. All right.

01:16:09.880 The SEC is going after some companies that made some claims about their Alzheimer's clinical trial. So I

01:16:22.240 guess the executives are being blamed for lying about the effectiveness of their test. So why the SEC?

01:16:32.600 Well, that would affect the investors. So if you invested based on their claim that their

01:16:37.860 trial was working, you would get screwed. So the SEC got involved. Now, interestingly, Mark Cuban,

01:16:45.260 on a recent interview, said that he might be interested in working at the SEC, being the head

01:16:51.680 of the SEC, in, let's say, a Biden administration, hypothetically. Now, I don't know why he had in mind

01:16:58.080 for that. But I'm really curious. I'm really curious. Because what is it that would make Mark Cuban

01:17:07.480 think that, first of all, that's where he would want to put any effort? And what is the specific

01:17:14.140 set of problems he's looking to cure? Because you know what? I don't think you should rule him out

01:17:20.420 under either administration. I just want to hear what he wants to do. So if he wants to cure some

01:17:27.160 problems that are known to be in the SEC, and he's got a list of things, I got to fix this, this, and

01:17:33.640 this, I don't know, maybe he belongs on the pirate ship. You know what I mean? Maybe RFK Jr.,

01:17:44.140 lifelong Democrat, but he's the perfect person to make sure that we fix our food supply and be a

01:17:49.820 little smarter about our pharma situation. Who would be the perfect person at the SEC?

01:17:56.920 I don't know. But I'd love to hear what he has to say about it. And I'd love to see. He could even

01:18:05.440 say, I hate everything Trump's doing, but I got to fix these three problems. If it's three good

01:18:11.100 problems, and he could really fix them, I don't know. I might be all in on that. What I'd worry about

01:18:18.000 is if it gave him any power over Trump. You know, that would be a non-starter. But if he really just

01:18:24.860 wanted to go fix some things that the country desperately needs fixed, and he has a bead on it,

01:18:30.120 I would very favorably look at that, because I love the pirate ship. There's plenty of room in the

01:18:35.720 pirate ship. Anyway, there are allegedly three teams of assassins in the country that may have

01:18:45.720 shoulder-mounted missiles that could knock a jet out of the air. Specifically, the worry is that

01:18:52.440 they're going after Trump's, Trump Force One, and that they would try to kill him in the air.

01:18:58.480 I ask you this. There are two theories of what's going on here. Theory number one, Iran sent a team

01:19:05.660 of assassins, maybe more than one, to kill Trump using these shoulder missiles. And they would do that

01:19:12.340 knowing that that would result in the death of every leader in Iran, as well as turning Tehran

01:19:18.200 into a wasteland, sort of a Gaza situation. Now, Iran would know that if they don't. Well,

01:19:26.020 they know that. I don't even have to say anything. Iran knows that if they kill Trump,

01:19:32.220 all of their leaders will be dead fairly soon. It won't even take that long. And they also know

01:19:39.480 that we would lay waste to their country, and we wouldn't look back. We wouldn't even blink.

01:19:44.680 Now, would that be good for America? No, it'd be terrible, you know, because Iran has lots of ways

01:19:49.560 to get back. It'd be terrible. But we'd do it. We'd do it. And so the first theory is that Iran

01:19:58.440 knows that they all will be personally killed, and their country would be destroyed, but they

01:20:04.720 thought it'd be a good idea to assassinate our president in an obvious way that we would know

01:20:10.060 it was them. So that's one possibility. Here's the other possibility. That the deep state blob,

01:20:18.220 the people in our military industrial complex, the State Department, those people, the blob,

01:20:23.040 that they see an opportunity for a twofer. Two benefits. One benefit is getting rid of Trump

01:20:31.160 because he's anti-war. Second benefit is it would be a cause for war, which they love. And it would

01:20:37.040 be a cause for war with Iran, which they might love a little extra. So who do you think would be behind

01:20:44.900 a rocket attack on Trump's airplane? Do you think it would be Iran who very clearly would know

01:20:51.680 that they would lose everything? Everything. Their lives, their economics, their future,

01:20:59.200 everything. Do you think they would do it, knowing they would lose everything? Knowing. Keep in mind,

01:21:05.840 there's no risk assessment here. We would kill every one of their leaders. If they take out Trump,

01:21:13.000 we're killing every one of their leaders. There's just no way around that. They know that.

01:21:17.040 They've dealt with America long enough that they know that's a death sentence.

01:21:23.120 Or do you think they're looking for maybe other ways to get what they want? And there's somebody

01:21:30.200 who's looking for a twofer. And the way they're priming you to think that it's Iran is to tell

01:21:34.900 you in advance, hey, it might be Iran. I'd certainly be worried about Iran with a shoulder missile.

01:21:40.460 And next, is it a coincidence that a shoulder mounted missile fired by somebody in the bushes

01:21:47.620 would be the hardest thing to determine who fired it? Yeah, it would be. It'd be pretty hard to figure

01:21:56.220 out who fired it. So it's sort of the perfect false flag situation to solve two problems if one of your

01:22:04.060 problems is that you don't want Trump to be in the picture anymore. So that's what I'm worried about.

01:22:15.420 The Republicans in Congress are going to do some oversight on why did the FCC so quickly approve Soros

01:22:25.580 buying a few hundred radio stations when everything else takes a lot longer.

01:22:30.140 Now, I'm going to say the same thing I said about Mayor Adams. If the reason that Soros got faster

01:22:38.020 approval is because he had good connections in the government and somebody whose job it was to make

01:22:44.640 sure the things that need to get approved get approved in a timely manner, and all they did was go do their

01:22:50.580 job. It's like, oh, why is this taking so long? No reason it should take so long. Let's move that up the

01:22:56.540 list. That's possible. It's entirely possible. It was just somebody doing their job a little better,

01:23:02.540 so it got moved to the top, and there was nothing really to stop it. But it's worth investigating.

01:23:09.660 It's worth investigating. Because as Elon Musk agreed when somebody was posting something about it,

01:23:16.180 Soros is buying influence over the United States. It's not just... He's buying influence.

01:23:21.100 He's buying a propaganda platform. But other people would say, well, what do you call X?

01:23:30.460 Well, what I call X is a platform which all views could be on it with no exceptions, unless it's illegal.

01:23:37.740 Whereas the radio station, if it's like every other radio station, the owner decides what kind of

01:23:43.420 direction they have. And then it keeps that direction. So different. There's an interesting

01:23:51.900 story happening with some Penn professor who is getting badly punished by her employer. And what did

01:24:04.780 she say? The things that... So she's tenured, but I guess they're going to take away her summer pay and

01:24:10.860 cut her pay and punish her every way they can. And she is prohibited from, quote, flagrantly unprofessional

01:24:19.660 and targeted disparagement of any individual or group. Wow. I guess that's pretty bad if she was

01:24:27.740 targeting and flagrantly unprofessional about some groups. Well, what did she say about some groups?

01:24:34.940 I saw an interview with Glenn Lowry, which was exactly the right person to talk to on this topic,

01:24:42.700 which you might know if you know Glenn. So here's what she allegedly said. At one point,

01:24:49.820 she said she didn't recall ever seeing, quote, a Black student graduate in the top quarter of the law

01:24:55.420 law class and, quote, rarely in the top half in two decades at Penn.

01:25:05.260 Hmm. Somebody's ringing my doorbell. This time of day.

01:25:13.180 Give me a second. I got to see if this is anything that's blown up on me.

01:25:18.300 I'll just check my cam.

01:25:21.740 You're going to disappear for a second.

01:25:25.740 All right.

01:25:27.740 What do we got going on here?

01:25:32.700 Somebody who has a long pole

01:25:36.540 and a piece of paper.

01:25:39.820 It looks really important. All right. Let me say...

01:25:45.020 All right. I'm going to have to yell over my balcony. Wait a sec.

01:25:48.780 I'm going to have to yell over my balcony.

01:26:13.100 All right.

01:26:39.480 All right. Construction, delivery. It's all under control now.

01:26:47.680 All right. Sorry about that. Anyway, so to finish that story, the Penn professor had also said, quote, not all cultures are equal. Uh-oh. Not functionally equal in creating citizens who can succeed in modern civilizations.

01:27:03.980 Um, so the, her idea was that there are some cultures that are optimized for the modern world and some that are not, and she's not judging them as morally or ethically good or bad.

01:27:21.300 So it's not a judgment. It's just an observation. For example, if I took a bunch of people who said, um, you know, we're, we're going to decide that our culture is hard work and telling the truth and, you know, getting a lot of talents.

01:27:38.160 And then you compared it to another culture that was, Hey, let's just enjoy our life. And I'm not saying this, these cultures apply to any specific people. I'm supposed to, this is a non-racial, um, example.

01:27:51.600 You'd think that the people who decided as a culture that hard work and, you know, doing the right thing and following the law and all that would perform better.

01:28:01.880 Now, as soon as you add a race to that, then it becomes a racial question. If I take the race out, everybody agrees. Oh yeah. The people who learn to work hard and obey the rules probably do well.

01:28:15.740 Um, but as soon as you overlay that and say, well, we wonder if all the rate, if all the cultures, every culture is giving people the same benefit.

01:28:28.800 Personally, I feel I benefited greatly by the cultural effects I had as a child, because it was all about, nobody's going to help you. You got to do it yourself.

01:28:41.300 Nobody's going to pay for you after college. You're going to have to figure this out. It's all on you. And then sure enough, if I wanted to do something, I could often do all kinds of things, but it was all on me.

01:28:55.340 Okay. So I thought that was a magnificently useful cultural effect.

01:29:03.500 Can we, and I think Glenn, Glenn Lowry again, because he's a black man with a very smart opinions. He's I think economist is his profession. Um, I recommend him highly, but I wonder if there's anything useful that you could take from this.

01:29:21.900 Um, because if you just say black people have bad cultures, that's why everything's wrong. That's, that's just ridiculous because you see, you know, plenty of successful black people and I'm always impressed by the successful musicians and athletes who say, you know, basically my mom or my parents are the reason I succeeded.

01:29:43.320 Yes, exactly. The reason you succeeded. Well, you had talent, but the reason you succeeded is probably because your parents were awesome in many cases. That's probably exactly what it was.

01:29:54.380 So how do you, how do you, how do you, how do you get out of the stupid part of the argument where you're just arguing? No, you're a racist. Stop saying that. No, you're a racist. And how do you get it to everybody's culture could be better?

01:30:08.960 Maybe that's the way to do it. It doesn't matter who you are. I mean, there's plenty of, you know, poor white people, poor, every other kind of person who doesn't have the exact right cultural influences.

01:30:21.700 So if we just say, how about we stop putting people into racial groups and just say, uh, that your parental and cultural influences are one of the biggest variables and no matter who you are, here's how you fix it.

01:30:38.540 Or at least that, you know, that's the problem. So you have a chance of fixing it. So it's one of those problems where, because we can't get into that, you're a racist problem.

01:30:48.800 We can't even have a useful conversation of, you know, I'd be willing to help.

01:30:56.120 You just, if we could just agree what the problem is, I'd be willing to help. I've written several books, which would be, if you didn't know how to, you know, raise a kid with the right things, they'd be really useful.

01:31:08.560 For example, if you read my book, had it failed almost everything and still went big and you were a parent, you could transfer that to your kid.

01:31:19.640 You could say, well, it's important that you, you know, treat things like systems, not just goals.

01:31:24.880 It's important that you take care of your, your health. It's important that you stay in a jail.

01:31:29.420 I mean, basically all the things in the book and build a talent stack. And so you're, until you're so talented that nobody can deny you.

01:31:37.460 So there's definitely a way you can fix culture, but you'd have to give somebody a blueprint.

01:31:45.460 You know, one of my books is the blueprint, but I don't know if it works for every group.

01:31:49.560 So that's what I say. And that brings, brings me to the conclusion of my amazing program.

01:32:00.860 I have been doing these longer, but it's because the news is just so juicy lately.

01:32:05.260 I'm going to go talk to the people on Locals privately, my subscribers, my, my beloved subscribers.

01:32:13.480 And the rest of you, I will see tomorrow. Thanks for joining on X and YouTube and Rumble.

01:32:17.800 You're awesome. I appreciate you. Got 30 seconds.
