Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2611 CWSA 09⧸28⧸24

00:00:00.000 All right. Well, if you didn't notice, the Dilbert comic is up. It's the Dilbert Reborn comic.

00:00:07.780 Now, normally, Dilbert, well, not normally, the Dilbert comic and the Dilbert Reborn comic,

00:00:13.380 typically, they don't do any politics. So this isn't really politics. It's just Dogbert

00:00:21.200 picking up on a meme. But I thought you'd like it. Let me read it to you in case you're listening.

00:00:27.300 Dogbert says to Dilbert, they're just sitting around the breakfast table, and Dilbert says,

00:00:33.060 I'm sorry, Dogbert says, when the hunter's bullet grazed my ear, I dropped to the ground out of

00:00:37.800 instinct. Then I jumped up and looked at the pack of wolves I had come to lead and yelled,

00:00:43.540 bite, bite, bite. And he's raising his fist like Trump did. Your story, and then Dilbert says,

00:00:49.780 your story is inspiring, but derivative. And Dogbert says, I didn't want to reinvent the wheel.

00:00:55.200 I mean, stick with what works, right, people? Stick with what works. Anyway, that's available only

00:01:02.460 on the, yeah, you have to subscribe to see Dilbert Reborn. Either on the Locals platform,

00:01:11.760 scottadams.locals.com, or, or, where's the show? I'm trying to open it. Here it is.

00:01:18.700 Huh. Or you can see it on the X, the X platform if you subscribe.

00:01:34.660 Oh, by the way, the 2025 Dilbert calendar is available for presale. The desk, page a day desk

00:01:40.900 calendar, made in America for the first time. And it's at, if you go to Dilbert.com, you'll see the

00:01:47.040 link for a presale. It's the only place you can get it. It's not going to be on Amazon.

00:01:51.600 Not now or ever. And it won't be in bookstores. Only one link. It's the only way you can get it.

00:01:57.260 Made in America.

00:02:00.040 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to Coffee with Scott Adams, the greatest experience of your life.

00:02:10.440 If you'd like to take this up to levels that nobody can really understand with their tiny,

00:02:14.860 shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or

00:02:23.440 a canteen jug or a flask or a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:02:28.900 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing

00:02:32.580 that makes everything better. It's called the Simultaneous Sip. And it happens now. Go.

00:02:37.820 Ah, the best.

00:02:45.400 I wonder if the coffee is making me healthier. Well, there's a new study that's discussed in Brink Zone

00:02:52.600 that coffee increases your testosterone and your anaerobic power. That's right. A little bit of

00:02:59.980 coffee and you'll be stronger and have more testosterone. You want me to prove it? Watch this.

00:03:05.820 All right. This is really good fabric on this T-shirt and I didn't want to hurt it anyway,

00:03:14.400 but trust me, I could have if I tried a little harder.

00:03:21.440 Well, here's the kind of stories I see every day lately. So the Michigan mail-in ballots

00:03:27.580 are now only going to be counted if there's a proof of signature. This is a gateway pundit reporting this

00:03:33.880 to which I said to myself, wait a minute. Are you telling me that in the past, the Michigan

00:03:40.460 mail-in ballots didn't need any signature verification? The most basic thing you would do?

00:03:48.660 No, no. And wait a minute, wait a minute. Are you telling me that they're only just barely

00:03:55.200 fixing this in time for the election? That's right. Just a few weeks before the actual election.

00:04:03.040 But thank goodness, thank goodness there's no other irregularity to report about the election.

00:04:13.200 Well, Jim Jordan has accused the Department of Homeland Security Secretary of

00:04:17.980 Stonewalling the Ohio Election Integrity, according to a raw story. So Jim Jordan says the Homeland Security

00:04:27.100 is refusing to respond to requests from Ohio's top election official for federal citizenship verification records.

00:04:35.820 I guess I want to make sure that the people who are voting are citizens, but the Department of Homeland Security

00:04:41.820 is stonewalling them. Do you know how many stories I see every day, almost all of them on X, about something

00:04:52.620 that is clearly broken in our election system and somebody is trying to fix it? Now, sometimes successfully,

00:04:59.980 sometimes they get stonewalled. But if we have a pristine election system that we are quite all sure

00:05:07.980 has been perfect, why are so many things getting fixed? Do people who we elect in various states,

00:05:18.940 are they so dumb that they don't know the elections are perfect the way they are, and they think they're

00:05:24.860 fixing something that ain't broke? Or is it stuff that's really obviously broken, and was obviously

00:05:33.020 broken before? And yet, the news that you thought was real told you, well, we know those elections were

00:05:40.380 good. Yeah, you can know what you don't know. That's what the news told you. Here's a list of things that

00:05:47.820 can't be known that we know. But wait, that can't be known. Yeah, but we know it. Right, but there isn't any

00:05:55.420 way to know it. But we know it. Well, how do you know it? Well, we didn't look into it. No, not looking

00:06:03.100 into it is not how you know things. Well, well, there were no complaints that we saw. But you just

00:06:09.660 said you didn't look into it. That's right. So if you don't look into it, you can be sure what happened?

00:06:17.580 Exactly. And that's actually what the news has been telling us for years. And people just said at home

00:06:26.380 going, uh-huh, uh-huh. Didn't look into it. Must be a good election. I can think of no better

00:06:35.100 evidence of a good election than we didn't really look into it. I went, oh, by the way,

00:06:40.060 it's designed so you can't fully audit it. Yeah, just normal stuff. Nothing to be concerned about.

00:06:47.580 How many Democrats will hear either of those stories today? How many Democrats are going to

00:06:54.460 hear about Michigan not checking signatures in the past? Oh, my God. Or that we're not entirely sure

00:07:04.300 who are citizens and should be able to vote. Do you think any Democrats will hear that? No. No. It'll be

00:07:11.180 basically zero. Let's see. What does the public think about election integrity? Well,

00:07:18.060 it used to be that Republicans were confident in the system and Democrats thought it might be a

00:07:24.380 little sketchy. But according to Gallup, that is somewhat reversed. And now the Republicans think

00:07:29.820 the elections are more sketchy than the Democrats. But both sides think they're a little bit sketchy.

00:07:35.500 So 57% of those polled by Gallup said that they will be only somewhat confident in the accuracy of the

00:07:45.900 election, where 24% say they're not too confident and a whopping 19% say they're not confident at all.

00:07:52.460 I would have added those two together. But only 57% of the public thinks they're very or even somewhat

00:08:00.220 confident in the results. Does that sound about right to you? Does that sound like a system that's

00:08:09.020 been designed to make us confident that we know what happened? No, I don't think you can get to

00:08:15.900 only 57% think the election is fair and reliable. Unless it's designed to keep you from knowing who won.

00:08:28.060 Our elections, let me say it again, are very obviously designed so you don't know who won.

00:08:37.340 I think that's the only thing you need to know. If you spend a few minutes looking at the design of

00:08:42.700 the system, and then I said to you, all right, would you know if the post office threw away some ballots?

00:08:49.820 No, you wouldn't. How would you know that? How would you catch that in an audit? There's no way to catch

00:08:57.100 that. No, it's uncatchable. If I told you that a state actor, whether it's the CIA or some other country,

00:09:05.020 had worked with an insider at one of the voting machines or tabulator companies and had hacked it

00:09:11.180 with the help of an insider to cover up any trail, would you be able to spot that? No, no, you wouldn't.

00:09:19.820 No, there's no way you could catch that. What would be the most obvious way that anybody

00:09:24.940 would cheat? Well, one of those ways. How about if somebody was a non-citizen and yet they had a

00:09:34.620 they got a mail-in vote and then they voted? What part of the process checks all those names

00:09:41.260 against real voters? Well, maybe some states do, but not all of them. So the most obvious ways that

00:09:51.020 anybody would think of, you know, if you were going to think of a way to cheat, none of them are

00:09:56.220 checkable. The most obvious ways you would cheat. And so to imagine that you could know

00:10:01.500 who won an election is, is sort of just naive. Yeah. But there we are. So you then did a fact

00:10:13.180 check on Kamala Harris's claims about manufacturing jobs. So she said something about Trump being bad

00:10:21.980 and losing manufacturing jobs and Biden being good and getting them back. But apparently it was just

00:10:27.100 wildly, you know, incorrect, just a lie basically. But CNN fact check them. Now, here's my question.

00:10:35.820 Have you noticed the selectivity of CNN's fact checking? How many, how many votes do you think

00:10:44.700 got changed because somebody exaggerated or had a wrong data about manufacturing? None, none.

00:10:53.260 No, even if the Democrats heard that this was a fake claim and it was a lie, there's probably not

00:11:02.380 even one Democrat who's going to change their vote because somebody exaggerated or, you know,

00:11:08.780 said something about manufacturing jobs. You've got two candidates who both say they want to bring

00:11:14.300 manufacturing back to the US. Both of them are going to use hyperbole about their numbers. Both of them

00:11:20.220 are going to choose a period of time that makes their thing look good. Both of them are going to

00:11:25.420 bad things. It has no effect on the actual outcome of the vote. Now, you know it would

00:11:32.700 if they fact checked the hoaxes. If they fact checked all the hoaxes every time she used one,

00:11:38.700 that would affect the election.

00:11:39.980 Because nobody, nobody thinks that an ordinary lie told by a politician is, you know, different

00:11:49.340 or even noteworthy or nobody cares. It's just part of the process. But if you told, if you told the CNN

00:11:57.180 and MSNBC viewers that their entire worldview was created by a mesh network of hoaxes that the media creates,

00:12:08.540 that would change some votes, because we saw it. A number of the people who said,

00:12:15.420 I've been a lifetime Democrat, but I changed my vote. The number one thing they point out is,

00:12:22.060 what's the number one thing that people mention when they say they changed to give up the Democrats?

00:12:28.700 The fine people hoax. The fine people hoax is the tentpole hoax, meaning it's the one that keeps all

00:12:37.260 the other hoaxes alive. If you believed the fine people hoax, then you accepted as a given that Trump

00:12:45.500 was the worst person in the world and would say any crazy thing. Now, since the fine people hoax is not true,

00:12:53.980 then suddenly all the other hoaxes, once you learn it's not true and how they did it and how

00:12:58.940 and how blatantly it was done. I think the thing about the fine people hoax is that you didn't have

00:13:03.740 to really do research to find out it was a lie and that the entire left leaning media landscape were all

00:13:11.740 in on it. They all knew the truth because they had the video too. So that one's a real, you know,

00:13:18.780 that one just makes your brain go, wait a minute, what? How badly were they lying to me? Because

00:13:24.300 it's one thing when a candidate tells a lie, like I said, you just expect that. But when the entire

00:13:31.020 media landscape coordinates with the Democrats to tell you a lie like the fine people hoax,

00:13:37.820 that can change your mind. When you find out that you were a victim of that and that there are 20 more

00:13:44.700 just like it. There are 20 more. The fine people hoax was just the 10 poll. You still needed other,

00:13:51.180 you know, polls to hold things up. But the main 10 poll was that one. And I like to say that I'm

00:14:00.940 happy that I worked for seven years to debunk it. You know, Steve Cortez, Joel Pollack, we all worked,

00:14:09.020 like the three of us just like work like maniacs for three years, every time that popped up to make

00:14:14.140 sure that people saw the counter, you know, the debunk. Anyway, Harris goes to the border, which gives,

00:14:22.940 I don't think anybody's having more fun in the last few months than Scott Jennings, who is, I guess he

00:14:29.740 would represent the Republican opinion on CNN. Now, I'd like to give CNN a little bit of credit.

00:14:35.820 But I think it's prudent to call balls and strikes and not just be, you know, in the bag for one team

00:14:43.260 completely. So the fact that Scott Jennings is not only very effective in his communications on behalf

00:14:52.140 of Republicans, but he does get a lot of screen time. He gets a lot of screen time. He shows up in

00:14:57.580 clips and he's doing a hell of a job. If you haven't watched any of Scott Jennings

00:15:04.540 debunking of the CNN people while they watch, you have to watch it, not just for what he says,

00:15:11.420 because he does a great job of framing things, but you have to watch the faces of the panelists

00:15:16.700 when they're forced to listen to the truth on CNN, because they all know they're liars.

00:15:23.340 They're completely aware of what they're doing. So when they give him time and they let him talk,

00:15:28.220 you just have to, I reposted a few in X, if you want to see them, you just have to see the faces

00:15:35.180 while they listen. They try to do the smug smile, but the smile says, I know you got us. It's sort of a,

00:15:44.540 you know, I'm doing an impression now. If you're hearing only audio, it's that the smug smile.

00:15:52.940 It's toothless. So a real smile shows your teeth. Usually here's a real smile. See, here's a real

00:15:59.820 smile. It's all teethy. Here's a smile that says Scott Jennings is making you look like you have a

00:16:06.860 brain the size of a squirrel and a million people are watching him do it while your face is on the

00:16:12.700 screen. Yeah. So that's the face when you're being dunked on by Scott Jennings on CNN.

00:16:22.620 I'm happy. I'm happy, but not happy enough so that you can see my teeth.

00:16:28.620 I'm so happy. Look at my smile. I'm not even bothered by it at all. I'm not even bothered by

00:16:34.860 being called out as a ridiculous propagandist right in front of the world. Look at me smiling.

00:16:42.540 It's not bothering me a bit. So that's hilarious. I recommend it.

00:16:49.580 Searchlight Pictures presents The Roses, only in theaters August 29th. From the director of Meet

00:16:55.100 the Parents and the writer of Poor Things comes The Roses, starring Academy Award winner Olivia

00:17:00.700 Coleman, Academy Award nominee Benedict Cumberbatch, Andy Samberg, Kate McKinnon, and Allison Janney.

00:17:06.700 A hilarious new comedy filled with drama, excitement, and a little bit of hatred,

00:17:11.420 proving that marriage isn't always a bed of roses. See The Roses, only in theaters August 29th. Get

00:17:17.580 tickets now. Here's what Scott Jennings said when Harris went to the border. He said,

00:17:25.260 arsonist returns to scene of crime. I told you he's going to reframe it. Arsonist returns to scene of crime.

00:17:36.140 And we're done. I could continue talking about this topic of Kamala Harris visiting the border. But

00:17:45.100 everything I say is just going to fit under this one reframe. Arsonist returns to scene of crime. Do I

00:17:51.740 need to tell anybody that the Biden administration is 100% responsible for everything we see? Or that

00:17:59.580 she was the border czar? Or if you don't like using common words for stuff, just in control of things

00:18:06.300 at the border in some general way that never happened? Three and a half years of complete,

00:18:11.260 absolute failure to the point where it looks like intentional treason. We don't know that it is,

00:18:17.420 but it sure looks like it. You can't fail harder than she has failed and Biden has failed at the

00:18:23.100 border. You can't fail harder than that. And she returns to the scene of the crime like an arsonist.

00:18:29.660 Anyway, and Scott Jennings points out there was a huge tactical mistake to just make sure that

00:18:37.580 people were really paying attention to the border. While Harris tells you it's a giant problem,

00:18:43.900 well, you say, but you caused the problem. Why are you now acting like you don't know what caused it? And

00:18:55.180 why are you there? You should be hiding in shame for what you've done. And the fact that she went to

00:19:01.980 the border and simply made the border issue more prominent in the news? Yeah, that's what mattered.

00:19:09.740 What didn't matter were her clever little arguments and stuff about it. Nobody cares about that.

00:19:16.460 All they care about is we spent more time thinking about criminals coming across the border.

00:19:20.940 Now, as luck would have it, the ICE report came out at the same time saying that the number of

00:19:29.020 criminals, literally murderers and rapists, were in the tens of thousands. The ones we know about.

00:19:35.420 Imagine how many people that maybe murdered somebody and got away with it and still came here.

00:19:42.060 So at the same time, the public is being exposed, we hope. Maybe no Democrats ever saw that data.

00:19:48.300 But it was national news, at least on the right. And I think Scott Jennings mentioned these numbers,

00:19:53.820 too. So he penetrated the CNN audience with that. So at the same time, we're seeing massive,

00:20:00.220 unreported, until now, numbers of criminals that we have deliberately, deliberately led into the

00:20:06.540 country. At the same time, we're seeing reports that ISIS, ISIS is sneaking people into the country.

00:20:14.220 At the same time, we're hearing that maybe, I don't know, Hezbollah or some other damn thing is coming

00:20:20.780 in with shoulder mounted missiles. And there's a bunch of assassin teams coming in through the border.

00:20:26.140 And there are tens of thousands of Chinese military looking people coming through the border.

00:20:33.100 We let everybody in. It's the biggest failure in American politics.

00:20:39.180 Yeah, let me say that. Let me say that with a little bit of confidence. In the history of American

00:20:46.300 government, opening the border, the way it was done, is the biggest mistake in American history.

00:20:56.220 If you could come up with a better example of a bigger mistake, I don't know. Now, and the thing is,

00:21:03.260 we haven't seen the price of that yet. The price is yet to be paid. Because we're letting in a whole

00:21:10.700 bunch of terrorists at the same time Iran is going to go to war with Israel, maybe. We'll talk about

00:21:16.380 that. And what would Iran do? What have we been warned by the people who know how things work in

00:21:22.380 this world? What is Iran going to do if, let's say, Iran itself is attacked as opposed to its proxies?

00:21:31.500 They're going to attack inside the United States. Your lights are going to go off. Because Iran is not,

00:21:38.220 you know, a Me Too follower kind of a country. They have abilities. They got skills. And they're

00:21:45.580 probably already in our cyber. They probably have already penetrated some of our systems.

00:21:51.180 They almost certainly have agents with weapons in the United States. Not that they're necessarily

00:21:56.780 going to do an October 7th attack. But they could certainly do things that we weren't sure if it was

00:22:02.380 them or somebody else. So it is, in my opinion, the biggest blunder in all of American government

00:22:11.260 history. I don't think there's a second place to that. And I guess what's different about it is that

00:22:19.500 it was obvious it was a blunder before they did it. I mean, it looks so much like somebody was trying

00:22:26.460 to destroy the country. It doesn't even look like this was ever a serious thing that somebody thought

00:22:31.100 was a good idea. It simply looks like somebody had a plan to destroy the country. I'll talk more about

00:22:36.220 that. Speaking of which, Harris looked at the Trump border wall. So she had to stand in front of the

00:22:46.940 border wall that Trump built, which at one point in 2019, she called it Medieval Vanity Project.

00:22:52.700 And now she is all about building some more. How do the Democrats not notice what's going on?

00:23:01.660 But they don't. They don't seem to notice. Anyway, former Navy SEAL Sean Ryan, who's got a podcast,

00:23:12.300 he was on Joe Rogan. And he said the Taliban is funneling terrorists into the U.S. to the southern

00:23:19.500 border for some kind of October 7th style attack. Now, I don't think Iran would want to do an October

00:23:27.020 7th in the United States. But ISIS might. ISIS might. So that's all coming in. And at the same time,

00:23:38.460 Harris has called for a pathway to citizenship for millions of the migrants she led into the country.

00:23:44.300 I don't know how you could be worse. To create the biggest blunder in American history and then to

00:23:52.540 top it by saying, let's give them citizenship so they can also vote.

00:23:59.420 The level of incompetence is way beyond anything I could call accidental. It doesn't look accidental.

00:24:07.020 Nobody could be this dumb. I mean, nobody could really.

00:24:15.420 So she gives a speech after she went to the border. And I would like to say, as far as I could tell,

00:24:22.620 when she gave her a speech, she was not inebriated. And I thought she did a great job.

00:24:29.260 So it was a teleprompter speech. At first, I thought maybe it was impromptu and I was more impressed.

00:24:33.740 But then when I looked at it, oh, it's teleprompter. But the teleprompter, she does really well now.

00:24:40.860 So I guess she's been doing a lot of practice on the campaign trail. But man, she read that teleprompter.

00:24:47.500 She did not cackle. She had all the right motions and everything. But I did note a few problems.

00:24:55.820 Oh, number one, if you'd like to know when she's inebriated and when she's not, there's a tell that is guaranteed.

00:25:05.100 All right. Now, I think you can tell by just the way she talks and everything. But there's one tell for whether she's inebriated.

00:25:13.260 And she definitely wasn't. She was in full control and did a good job in her speech.

00:25:17.900 Here's her hand gestures when she's not inebriated. They're crisp and they're smallish.

00:25:26.460 So she'd be like dupe, dupe, crisp, tight, controlled. So when she's talking, her hands are very much part of a good presenter's hands.

00:25:39.900 Now, I'm going to give you the impression of when she's inebriated.

00:25:44.860 Shoulders moving and hands are not tight. They're all over the place.

00:25:51.340 Let me tell you what we're going to do. Right? You watch for it. Tight hands, dun, dun, dun, versus loose hands.

00:26:02.380 If you wonder, is she sometimes inebriated in public, you only have to watch her speech where she's not.

00:26:12.940 Once you see her operating at 100%, as she was during her speech, there's no doubt that the other thing is inebriated.

00:26:22.300 There's no doubt at all. And you can even see that she's picking her spots.

00:26:26.780 When she does a national speech or a debate, definitely not inebriated. Not a sign, not a suggestion, not a hint, nothing.

00:26:37.980 But when she's talking to a friendly, a friendly, like a student or a little group of people who love her, she's drunk as a fuck.

00:26:49.220 We've seen this so many times, there's no doubt about it. Or inebriated in some fashion.

00:26:56.020 The other thing I haven't heard anybody say yet, but let me be the first to point it out.

00:27:00.740 So she gives a speech that was largely about her, you know, getting serious about the border.

00:27:07.020 Did anybody notice that the speech was all about her?

00:27:11.060 Here's what I expect when you've got a massive border problem and somebody's running for president.

00:27:15.820 Here's what I'm going to do about the border.

00:27:19.420 I'm going to build a wall. I'm going to reverse the executive orders.

00:27:24.740 I'm going to get rid of this fake asylum thing.

00:27:28.240 So that's what you would say if you came there to tell people how you're going to fix something.

00:27:33.680 But she's got a little problem because any of those ideas, if they sound good, somebody's going to say,

00:27:38.980 So why didn't you do that already?

00:27:43.660 Joe Biden says you're in charge of everything.

00:27:48.280 So she can't really come out and say, here's a bunch of stuff I'm going to do.

00:27:53.600 The only thing she said specifically is she wants to create a path to citizenship,

00:27:58.540 which is making the problem better or worse?

00:28:04.200 Worse.

00:28:04.700 The only concrete suggestion is something that whether you're on the left or the right,

00:28:10.960 you'd say, well, that's creating an incentive to come here.

00:28:16.100 That's worse.

00:28:18.480 That's not better.

00:28:20.400 That's worse.

00:28:33.520 Scotiabank, you're richer than you think.

00:28:37.940 But here's the part that once you hear it, if you listen to it again, listen for this.

00:28:44.360 She only talked about herself.

00:28:47.680 The only time she talked about somebody else, she talked about the poor migrants,

00:28:53.320 the non-citizens.

00:28:55.360 What she didn't talk about is the pain and destruction so much that's coming on the American citizens.

00:29:01.820 So here's her talking about the border.

00:29:05.220 I was a prosecutor.

00:29:07.380 Okay, we're not hiring you to be a prosecutor.

00:29:10.400 I have toured the tunnels.

00:29:12.980 Okay.

00:29:13.560 I mean, we all know there are tunnels.

00:29:15.260 Does that make you a little extra qualified because you've been in one?

00:29:18.000 You wouldn't believe how smooth the walls are of the tunnels under the border.

00:29:24.560 Okay.

00:29:25.680 Well, you know, maybe it could be true that Trump is not aware how smooth the walls are

00:29:31.020 on the tunnels under the border.

00:29:33.280 That's not much of a selling point for you.

00:29:36.080 Well, Trump doesn't even know how smooth the walls are.

00:29:38.720 It's not like he's in favor of the tunnels.

00:29:43.680 So she had, she just went on forever.

00:29:47.160 The entire time I listened, I didn't hear it all, but the entire time I did listen, she

00:29:52.000 only talked about herself and none of it was relevant.

00:29:56.160 Your prosecutor got it.

00:29:58.120 So because you're a prosecutor and your entity prosecuted some people in this context, what

00:30:07.960 do you know that I don't know?

00:30:10.220 Do I not know that fentanyl is coming across the border and probably killed my stepson?

00:30:17.260 Everybody knows that.

00:30:19.080 Do you not know the cartels are in charge at the border?

00:30:22.200 Do you not know that millions of people have come?

00:30:24.140 What is it we don't know that we're now educated because we know you were once a prosecutor

00:30:29.660 and that the walls of the tunnels were shiny?

00:30:33.260 You got nothing.

00:30:35.140 You got nothing, lady.

00:30:36.980 Meanwhile, the border patrol said yet another lie.

00:30:40.420 As with all things border related, she was nowhere to be found when we needed her.

00:30:45.560 She ignored the border problems that she created over three years and admitted that the,

00:30:51.860 and separately admitted that the immigration system under her and Biden was broken.

00:30:58.540 So she said she was going to fix the problem, but isn't that really admitting that she's the

00:31:04.560 source of the problem too?

00:31:06.100 Because it didn't happen under Trump.

00:31:08.620 He had it fixed.

00:31:09.380 Well, the Amuse account on X says that Kamala Harris did some election interference by creating

00:31:20.080 some campaign ads in which they had two people saying that they used to be Trump supporters,

00:31:26.160 but now they're in Pennsylvania and now they're not.

00:31:30.560 Well, it turns out that was fake.

00:31:32.440 They were not real voters.

00:31:33.860 Well, they might vote, but they were actors who have always been lifelong Democrats.

00:31:38.460 So they got two lifelong Democrat actors to pretend that they switched.

00:31:44.080 Here's my question for you.

00:31:46.800 How hard would it be for Trump to find some prominent Democrats who switched to him?

00:31:54.200 Well, not too hard.

00:31:55.900 RFK Jr., Elon Musk, Scott Adams, Sachs.

00:32:01.340 There's a pretty long list, Tulsi.

00:32:04.980 You know, there's a long list.

00:32:07.160 He wouldn't have to hire an actor.

00:32:10.280 Trump would not have to hire an actor to say, I used to be Democrat, but now I just can't

00:32:15.740 do it anymore.

00:32:17.060 But she had to hire actors.

00:32:19.260 They couldn't find any real people.

00:32:22.700 That should tell you something.

00:32:26.200 All right.

00:32:26.760 So here's my summary for today.

00:32:29.740 I mean, I'm not ending, but this will capture my thoughts.

00:32:33.400 I think it's kind of stunning the degree to which Democrats have legalized crime while turning

00:32:39.660 the Department of Justice, who should be fighting the crime, into the criminals.

00:32:45.560 In other words, lawfare, etc.

00:32:47.140 So let me just give you some examples.

00:32:50.720 So here's examples of Democrats who are basically legalizing crime.

00:32:58.300 Now, that's a little hyperbole when I say legalizing crime, but I'll give you the examples and you'll

00:33:03.440 see why the hyperbole fits.

00:33:06.220 They wanted to defund the police.

00:33:07.980 They wanted to stop arresting shoplifters up to a certain dollar amount, which caused

00:33:14.120 stores to close a massive crime.

00:33:17.820 They're letting the homeless control the sidewalks with everything that brings with it.

00:33:22.380 They're creating an asylum path for migrants who are willing to lie.

00:33:26.780 The migrant process is a legal process, but not if you lie.

00:33:31.600 If you lie and say that you're coming for asylum, but you're really not coming for asylum,

00:33:35.740 they have legalized that crime.

00:33:39.560 They've essentially made it legal to lie that you're here for asylum because nobody's going

00:33:44.740 to get punished for it.

00:33:46.060 And it's the obvious way to go if you're coming in.

00:33:48.680 They created the sanctuary cities to thwart any legal processes about the immigrants, lie

00:33:56.840 about the amount of crime incoming.

00:33:59.620 So they lied about how much crime is coming across the border.

00:34:02.600 They allowed teams of assassins and terrorists into the country.

00:34:06.520 They are pushing DEI, which is literally legalized discrimination against white people, white

00:34:12.960 males.

00:34:14.340 That's illegal.

00:34:16.340 They censor Americans via proxies.

00:34:19.780 This is the Mike Benz stuff, where we know that the State Department and the Democrats get

00:34:26.800 European and other entities, Brazilian, to do the things that they couldn't legally do

00:34:31.880 to citizens.

00:34:32.720 So they just use external entities to put the pressure on, you know, X and other platforms,

00:34:38.840 et cetera.

00:34:41.380 So they're censoring.

00:34:42.760 That's, you know, they want to take your guns away, of course.

00:34:46.080 The rhetoric encourages assassinations, in my opinion.

00:34:53.340 They've got elections that can't be fully audited, which supports criminal acts during

00:34:57.620 the elections.

00:34:58.100 And in Manhattan, apparently 60% of felonies are reduced to misdemeanors.

00:35:05.080 So that's Alvin Bragg.

00:35:06.520 60% of felonies are reduced to misdemeanors.

00:35:12.460 Now, some are always, I mean, that's not the first time that's ever happened, but 60% feels

00:35:17.880 like a lot to me.

00:35:19.080 And the lesser charges, they're just released.

00:35:23.340 All right.

00:35:24.920 So that's a case of the Democrats making effectively legal, not technically legal in every case,

00:35:33.000 but effectively legalizing crime across a whole broad range of important topics.

00:35:38.520 What did that do?

00:35:39.560 It made the entire country unsafe and inner cities extra, extra unsafe.

00:35:45.280 But at the same time that they were making criminals legal, they were making the people

00:35:51.920 whose job it is to fight crime, they turned them into criminals.

00:35:56.740 So they turned the criminals into legal things like, oh yeah, you could just say asylum and

00:36:02.240 you could come in.

00:36:03.460 Ah, you could take up to $950.

00:36:06.180 Still technically illegal, but we're not going to do much about it.

00:36:09.560 That's right.

00:36:10.500 So they legalized crime across a whole broad array of categories.

00:36:15.140 And then they took the people who were supposed to fight that crime and they literally turned

00:36:18.720 them into criminals because the lawfare against Trump, in my opinion, is purely criminal.

00:36:25.040 The J6 or, you know, the degree to which they were overcharged, in my opinion, is just purely

00:36:32.820 criminal.

00:36:33.860 And they've canceled a lot of people for supporting Trump in the media and supporters.

00:36:39.560 And they've gone after his supporters who are trying to take him down.

00:36:43.020 And if you put all this together, it looks like a plan to destroy America.

00:36:49.880 It looks intentional.

00:36:51.180 Now, I usually avoid any kind of conspiracy theory that deep.

00:36:57.640 I try to, because when you just look at a bunch of patterns, it's easy to convince yourself

00:37:04.120 that the patterns mean more than they do.

00:37:06.560 But holy hell, that's a lot of pattern.

00:37:09.120 Let me give you, yeah, and apparently ICE has known, which means the administration has

00:37:18.440 known, they let in 663,000 people with criminal histories.

00:37:23.320 13,000 were charged with, or convicted of homicide.

00:37:27.680 Convicted.

00:37:28.820 And they let them into the countries.

00:37:30.220 16,000 for sexual assaults and 1845 facing homicide charges.

00:37:38.680 Now, speaking of Sean Ryan and his podcast, I'm going to ask you for a favor.

00:37:45.240 I watched a clip in which he had an author on just recently, Sean Ryan did, and I didn't

00:37:50.280 catch the author's name or the name of his book.

00:37:53.460 So if you saw it, and you probably did, or maybe you could Google it for me, could you

00:37:58.760 put it in the comments, the name of the author, once I tell you what the topic was, you'll

00:38:03.520 recognize it, so that he gets his due credit?

00:38:06.460 Because the author was very, very convincing.

00:38:09.700 And here's a story that I heard from the author on Sean Ryan's podcast.

00:38:16.360 And I'm interested if you've ever heard this before.

00:38:18.680 So Obama wanted DEI, and how it happened that it was everywhere in the country was somewhat

00:38:27.800 clever, and I'd never heard this before.

00:38:30.520 So you've got a president who wants DEI to be a big thing, and he worked with John Brennan,

00:38:37.220 and also with the various government entities.

00:38:41.320 And the idea was, if you could get the government to push DEI, and to really embrace it, and also

00:38:48.660 you hire a lot of people for those agencies that are under the DEI umbrella, that further

00:38:53.700 will make DEI a big thing.

00:38:55.600 But here's the part I didn't realize before, that if you make the government entities and

00:39:02.020 agencies all DEI advocates, they're going to force companies to be DEI, because those

00:39:09.460 companies need approvals and need to work productively with entities within the government.

00:39:15.700 So all you have to do is get the government to push DEI, and then the government will push

00:39:21.880 each of the agencies and people who have some control over individuals and companies can

00:39:28.940 then push it themselves.

00:39:31.820 And apparently John Brennan has said it's one of his greatest accomplishments, or the greatest

00:39:37.240 accomplishment of his career, was bringing DEI to the CIA when he was in charge of it.

00:39:42.540 And I believe that over 50% of the CIA now is women.

00:39:49.140 And that was part of his accomplishments, he says.

00:39:52.220 So when I look at DEI, which is literally illegal, that is tearing the country apart and has created

00:40:03.200 a system which guarantees incompetence.

00:40:05.540 Not because of the individuals, not because of anybody's genes or culture or chromosomes or DNA or anything

00:40:14.280 like that.

00:40:15.160 That's separate.

00:40:16.340 That's not in the conversation.

00:40:18.120 It's just that the pool of applicants to fulfill DEI is smallish.

00:40:22.880 And if you have to do it, you're going to just hire less qualified people.

00:40:26.960 And what we should see under a DEI environment, within one decade, you should see every major

00:40:36.900 institution crumble.

00:40:39.240 That would be the prediction that you could predict on paper.

00:40:42.920 And again, not because of anybody's DNA, not because of anybody's race or culture, nothing

00:40:49.420 to do with that.

00:40:50.120 It's just that if you force a constraint on a thing that's barely working in the first

00:40:55.640 place, which is the economy, the economy is always delicately between working great and

00:41:03.540 failing.

00:41:04.240 There's always that small difference between huge economic success and, well, that didn't

00:41:09.000 work.

00:41:10.320 And DEI is by far enough to move you from the great economic success to everything fell apart.

00:41:16.700 And we're not sure why.

00:41:17.740 Just everything we tried to do didn't work.

00:41:20.460 You made a phone call to text support.

00:41:22.100 They couldn't help you.

00:41:23.620 Basically, nothing works.

00:41:25.900 So we are in that phase.

00:41:28.220 We are in the predictable stage of everything fucked up because we have too many incompetent

00:41:35.520 people in every organization.

00:41:38.040 And it was intentional.

00:41:40.440 Now, if you ask them, they'd say, we're trying to make the organizations look like America,

00:41:45.980 make sure everybody has opportunity.

00:41:47.920 I like all of that.

00:41:50.100 You know, on paper, I like it all.

00:41:52.180 It's just if the only way you can implement it is a bunch of managers saying, I'm going

00:41:56.980 to get fired unless I hire somebody who's a DEI person.

00:42:00.440 And even if I can't find a good one, I'm going to have to take a chance until everything

00:42:04.940 falls apart.

00:42:05.760 And that's where we are.

00:42:06.740 Everything's falling apart.

00:42:07.700 And honestly, it's mostly DEI problem.

00:42:11.180 More than anything, it's DEI.

00:42:13.500 Now, on top of that, everything's more complicated every year.

00:42:18.040 So in theory, an average person who could do a reasonable job at something no longer can.

00:42:24.500 So the complexity of everything makes it so if you're not in the top 20% of capability,

00:42:30.400 you're not going to be able to do anything.

00:42:33.340 Everything's just too hard.

00:42:35.100 You know, back when, you know, you just had to milk a cow.

00:42:38.580 Oh, almost everybody can do it.

00:42:41.200 All you had to do is shoot an animal and skin it.

00:42:44.480 Well, most people could do it with a little bit of practice.

00:42:47.680 But most people can't do most jobs.

00:42:51.820 Now, they're just too complicated.

00:42:55.520 Anyway, Frank Luntz says that for the first time in a long time, there are more people

00:43:05.620 registered as Republicans than Democrats in the entire country.

00:43:11.520 Did you see that coming?

00:43:14.120 I did not see that coming.

00:43:17.680 I have to admit, that one snuck up on me.

00:43:21.880 Because you know what it is about Republicans that really stands out?

00:43:27.000 And I've always loved this about conservatives and Republicans.

00:43:31.980 They're really about just getting the work done.

00:43:36.460 They're not so much about making sure that everybody knows it.

00:43:41.200 So there's something about this number that says to me that Republicans just got to work

00:43:48.980 and said, we can't give up the country.

00:43:52.100 If there are more Democrats than there are Republicans, we're all dead.

00:43:55.460 And so, since the obvious solution to having more Democrats than Republicans is you register

00:44:02.460 more Republicans, they did.

00:44:05.840 Now, again, Scott Pressler gets a huge bit of credit for what he did, especially in Pennsylvania.

00:44:12.660 But there must be a lot more people working on this.

00:44:16.000 I don't know.

00:44:16.720 Is this the Lara Trump part of the world?

00:44:21.080 I'm not sure if what she's doing is directly or indirectly related to this.

00:44:26.420 Now, some of this might be that the Democrats did such a bad job that people are hiding as independents.

00:44:32.260 Because I think that happens.

00:44:34.520 If Biden is just embarrassing, people will say, let's say I'm an independent.

00:44:43.260 Yeah, not my fault.

00:44:44.840 Sure, I voted for him, but now I'm independent.

00:44:47.420 Now I'm independent.

00:44:48.820 So some of it is fake.

00:44:50.820 People just hiding because they don't want to take the heat.

00:44:54.020 But it's never been this way before.

00:44:57.000 And it's not even that close.

00:44:58.960 There's 48% Republican and 45% Democrat.

00:45:03.580 Now, there's still so many.

00:45:06.460 Wait a minute.

00:45:07.100 This can't be right.

00:45:10.280 How's that?

00:45:11.100 No, that's not right.

00:45:12.720 These numbers can't be right because that would mean that the independents are.

00:45:18.360 No, this can't be right.

00:45:19.860 I thought independents were about a third of voters.

00:45:22.660 Am I wrong about that?

00:45:25.040 The last time I saw these numbers, the independents, Democrats, and Republicans,

00:45:28.960 were roughly about the same number.

00:45:32.720 And this would suggest that there are very few independents.

00:45:36.680 So that can't be right.

00:45:38.340 All right.

00:45:38.640 I'm going to pivot.

00:45:43.220 My pivot is there's something wrong with these numbers.

00:45:45.420 It could be that they're only comparing people who registered one way or the other, which, you know, I would need more detail to know if that's what's happening.

00:46:00.100 But let's say that the numbers are true.

00:46:04.140 What would that suggest would be the likely vote?

00:46:11.920 If there really are more Republicans registered than Democrats, who would win the, not the electoral vote, but the overall national vote?

00:46:22.980 It should be the one who's got the most people registered because that's what it's been before.

00:46:28.220 You know, there were more Democrats, and sure enough, they won the national vote, even when they lost the, you know, the electoral college.

00:46:37.160 So what would be the result, hypothetically, if these numbers held?

00:46:42.680 And let's say, let's say, independence, we don't know this, but let's say independence matched this, these ratios.

00:46:50.740 I think independence are going to be far more for Trump, but let's say it's just this much.

00:46:59.240 That would suggest a landslide.

00:47:03.400 Right?

00:47:04.620 If Trump wins the popular vote nationwide, the electoral vote is a landslide.

00:47:13.240 Now, I need somebody smart to tell me I'm wrong about that, but I think I'm right.

00:47:17.380 So you've got the national polls, which, depending on how they weight things and how they ask the question and, you know, some assumptions that they make when they collect their data, they look a little sketchy, don't they?

00:47:34.980 Now, the national polls sometimes say Kamala's ahead, sometimes by a lot.

00:47:39.520 Sometimes they say Trump's ahead, sometimes by a good amount.

00:47:43.160 So the national polls appear to be completely funky and unreliable at this moment.

00:47:50.960 But do you think that we can accurately count how many people have registered as Republicans versus Democrats?

00:47:59.400 Yes, because that doesn't require an assumption, and it doesn't require any, there's not much room for weaselness.

00:48:08.260 It's probably just a data that you're either registered or you're not.

00:48:13.400 So if you're going to believe one, what would be more believable?

00:48:16.440 That the Republican registrations have surged, which would indicate a landslide for Trump,

00:48:22.060 or that the individual polls, which we've never trusted in the past and always seem to get mysteriously accurate right toward the election?

00:48:31.100 Sort of in October.

00:48:36.400 Do you know what the October surprise is yet?

00:48:39.860 One of them.

00:48:40.560 There's probably going to be lots of them.

00:48:42.520 Have you figured out the October surprise?

00:48:46.040 At Grey Goose, we believe that pleasure is a necessity.

00:48:49.620 That's why we craft the world's number one premium vodka in France,

00:48:53.060 using only three of the finest natural ingredients,

00:48:56.040 French winter wheat, water from Jean Sac, and yeast.

00:49:01.100 With Grey Goose, we invite you to live in the moment and make time wait.

00:49:05.920 Sip responsibly.

00:49:11.160 Well, if this is true,

00:49:15.480 the Republican registrations have now outnumbered Democrat registrations,

00:49:20.960 this election is over.

00:49:23.660 In terms of voting,

00:49:24.900 I'm going to agree with Eric Weinstein

00:49:28.400 that we don't know if Trump will become president

00:49:31.920 because the bad actors,

00:49:34.960 it looks like there's no limits to what they'd be willing to do.

00:49:38.100 And I mean, actually, no limits.

00:49:40.560 So,

00:49:41.720 I think Trump probably

00:49:43.680 has a dominant position

00:49:45.640 and it looks like a landslide if nothing changes.

00:49:48.480 But remember,

00:49:49.460 there's going to be lots of changes.

00:49:50.780 So, here's what I think will be your October surprise.

00:49:54.540 Now,

00:49:55.120 can't guarantee it.

00:49:57.060 Can't guarantee it.

00:49:59.200 But the pollsters are all going to

00:50:01.700 be showing a landslide by Election Day.

00:50:04.940 Because if they don't,

00:50:07.060 if they don't,

00:50:08.940 then next election,

00:50:10.240 you're going to say,

00:50:11.000 there was a landslide

00:50:12.380 and you weren't even close.

00:50:13.600 Why should we listen to you again?

00:50:15.240 Why should we pay you for your stuff?

00:50:17.940 Why should we ever report what you said again?

00:50:21.080 So,

00:50:21.680 it becomes really important

00:50:22.820 for the pollsters

00:50:23.960 to end up in the top five,

00:50:25.480 top ten.

00:50:27.360 So,

00:50:28.040 if they're way off

00:50:29.080 a few weeks before election,

00:50:31.180 which is what?

00:50:32.380 October.

00:50:33.820 The October surprise

00:50:35.460 is going to be the polls.

00:50:39.520 Now,

00:50:40.080 you knew it was going to happen,

00:50:41.840 but here's the surprise.

00:50:43.220 It's going to be bigger than you thought.

00:50:44.640 I think the surprise

00:50:47.040 is going to be

00:50:48.200 the degree of pollster

00:50:50.540 shenanigans

00:50:51.680 that are happening

00:50:52.500 in September

00:50:53.220 are beyond

00:50:54.780 what you imagined

00:50:55.760 was possible.

00:50:57.660 That's what I think

00:50:58.720 will be your surprise.

00:50:59.960 Now,

00:51:00.120 I could be wrong.

00:51:01.800 Right?

00:51:02.020 It'd be easy

00:51:02.540 to be wrong about this.

00:51:04.340 But,

00:51:04.720 when you see the,

00:51:06.880 if you see the people

00:51:08.020 on the streets,

00:51:09.060 I just saw another

00:51:11.080 person on the street thing

00:51:12.400 where they're asking

00:51:13.180 just young people

00:51:14.360 who they supported.

00:51:15.180 it seems to be

00:51:17.300 Trump

00:51:17.660 every time

00:51:18.180 somebody goes

00:51:18.940 on the street.

00:51:20.960 And,

00:51:21.680 even if maybe

00:51:23.400 it was always,

00:51:24.100 you know,

00:51:24.380 close to half and half,

00:51:26.160 the Trump supporters

00:51:27.360 who are young

00:51:28.180 will say it out loud

00:51:30.640 with no embarrassment

00:51:31.920 whatsoever

00:51:32.640 as if it's the cooler

00:51:34.400 thing to do now.

00:51:36.520 And,

00:51:37.100 once you see

00:51:37.680 how many

00:51:38.100 20-something people

00:51:39.380 are,

00:51:40.280 you know,

00:51:41.160 just yelling Trump

00:51:42.120 into the camera.

00:51:43.220 So happy to support him.

00:51:45.480 Perfectly happy

00:51:46.400 that they're seen

00:51:47.640 by their

00:51:48.560 other fellow students,

00:51:50.980 seen by whoever

00:51:51.960 is going to see the video.

00:51:53.580 There's nothing

00:51:54.280 holding them back.

00:51:55.880 Trump,

00:51:56.900 and I think,

00:51:58.320 I think it's because

00:52:00.540 eating the dogs.

00:52:03.100 I think eating the dogs,

00:52:05.060 eating the cats

00:52:05.960 is what made him

00:52:07.720 popular with young people.

00:52:10.260 Well,

00:52:10.900 plus,

00:52:11.240 you know,

00:52:11.400 the assassination attempt

00:52:12.520 was,

00:52:13.020 you know,

00:52:13.500 remarkable.

00:52:15.440 You know,

00:52:16.000 the fight,

00:52:16.640 fight,

00:52:16.900 fight part.

00:52:18.000 But,

00:52:18.400 the cats and the dogs

00:52:20.540 thing is still

00:52:21.420 trending on TikTok.

00:52:23.480 And,

00:52:24.000 when you see

00:52:24.340 people's reaction

00:52:25.220 to him,

00:52:26.240 and you see

00:52:26.660 the number of people

00:52:27.440 who are still

00:52:28.120 dancing to that,

00:52:30.160 something's happening.

00:52:31.880 Something big's

00:52:32.640 happening.

00:52:34.140 All right,

00:52:34.720 of course,

00:52:35.140 you know the big news

00:52:35.920 is Israel took out

00:52:36.880 the head of Hezbollah

00:52:37.940 with a gigantic

00:52:39.680 set of bombs,

00:52:41.240 bunker busters,

00:52:42.340 I guess.

00:52:43.320 So,

00:52:43.860 here's what happened.

00:52:47.600 See how impressed

00:52:48.640 you are by this.

00:52:51.300 So,

00:52:51.840 Hezbollah has,

00:52:53.020 like,

00:52:53.340 reportedly,

00:52:54.200 I don't know,

00:52:54.400 100,000 rockets

00:52:55.640 that could be fired

00:52:56.720 at Israel.

00:52:57.900 If they were to fire

00:52:59.060 them all at the same time,

00:53:00.460 or in big waves,

00:53:03.520 then the Iron Dome

00:53:04.780 would have a tough time

00:53:05.940 getting them all,

00:53:06.920 just because of numbers.

00:53:09.380 So,

00:53:09.980 really,

00:53:10.500 the threat that Hezbollah

00:53:11.620 had was that

00:53:12.680 we'll fire them

00:53:13.600 in big waves

00:53:15.040 at the same time.

00:53:16.420 It wasn't really

00:53:17.460 a risk if they did,

00:53:18.460 you know,

00:53:18.960 one here or there.

00:53:20.440 The Iron Dome

00:53:21.120 could get them,

00:53:21.920 and chances are

00:53:22.860 it wasn't going to hit

00:53:23.760 anything anyway.

00:53:24.300 So,

00:53:27.040 what do you think

00:53:27.800 it takes

00:53:28.440 for

00:53:30.080 Hezbollah

00:53:31.420 to fire

00:53:32.040 all of their stuff

00:53:32.880 at the same time?

00:53:34.300 Well,

00:53:34.620 coordination,

00:53:35.420 obviously,

00:53:35.940 coordination.

00:53:36.900 And what does that take?

00:53:38.540 Well,

00:53:38.860 some kind of communication.

00:53:41.320 What does that take?

00:53:43.120 Well,

00:53:44.160 you're going to have to use

00:53:44.920 some kind of

00:53:45.600 digital

00:53:46.160 communication.

00:53:48.940 And apparently,

00:53:49.900 because they thought

00:53:50.540 the cell phones

00:53:51.360 could be too easily

00:53:52.200 tracked by Israel,

00:53:53.580 they had moved

00:53:54.220 to pagers

00:53:54.760 and walkie-talkies,

00:53:56.400 which,

00:53:57.540 as you know,

00:53:58.860 Israel found a way

00:53:59.800 to make it explodey.

00:54:01.720 So,

00:54:02.020 once all their pagers

00:54:02.760 and walkie-talkies

00:54:03.660 exploded,

00:54:04.920 what's next?

00:54:08.520 Well,

00:54:09.080 the first thing

00:54:09.740 that you might not realize

00:54:11.060 is that

00:54:12.940 they may have lost

00:54:14.800 their ability

00:54:15.300 to coordinate

00:54:15.900 an attack.

00:54:17.500 Because if they don't

00:54:18.560 do it all

00:54:18.940 at the same time,

00:54:19.620 they're just wasting

00:54:20.280 their missiles.

00:54:22.120 Send up three missiles

00:54:23.500 Israel knocks down

00:54:24.880 three missiles

00:54:25.540 and you're done.

00:54:28.260 So,

00:54:28.720 if you can't

00:54:29.260 shoot them all

00:54:29.760 at the same time,

00:54:30.960 you've lost

00:54:31.920 your only weapon,

00:54:33.780 you know,

00:54:34.040 the one that

00:54:34.440 anybody's worried about.

00:54:35.880 So,

00:54:36.440 I can't say for sure

00:54:37.960 that they lost

00:54:39.020 that ability,

00:54:39.680 but they haven't

00:54:41.200 launched a big wave

00:54:42.140 of missiles

00:54:42.620 and they did lose

00:54:45.020 all of their leadership

00:54:46.160 and the last guy

00:54:47.900 that was left

00:54:48.600 said to himself,

00:54:50.300 huh,

00:54:50.760 I'm going to have

00:54:52.040 to figure out

00:54:52.580 how to rebuild

00:54:53.220 and get things

00:54:54.260 coordinated again,

00:54:55.280 but I better not

00:54:56.500 use any digital means.

00:54:58.680 So,

00:54:58.920 send out the runners

00:54:59.760 and get the,

00:55:01.640 I don't know,

00:55:02.600 the third level down

00:55:03.960 of commanders

00:55:04.860 because the other ones

00:55:05.760 have all been killed

00:55:06.480 and we'll meet

00:55:08.260 in my

00:55:08.860 command bunker.

00:55:11.360 Yeah,

00:55:15.280 we're,

00:55:15.920 whatever's left

00:55:17.120 of the leadership

00:55:17.960 of Hezbollah

00:55:19.080 after most of it's

00:55:20.180 already been killed,

00:55:21.740 we're going to meet

00:55:22.480 in my

00:55:23.100 well-known

00:55:24.040 command bunker.

00:55:27.120 My well-known,

00:55:28.840 well-identified

00:55:29.740 command bunker.

00:55:32.400 Knowing

00:55:32.960 that there are

00:55:33.760 obviously

00:55:34.320 spies working

00:55:35.880 because

00:55:36.960 without the spies,

00:55:38.480 Israel would not

00:55:39.180 have been able

00:55:39.580 to kill

00:55:40.040 all of the top

00:55:41.480 guys'

00:55:41.920 commanders

00:55:42.300 already.

00:55:44.100 Wherever they were,

00:55:45.520 they got them all.

00:55:47.380 Which

00:55:47.900 very heavily suggests

00:55:49.300 there's an insider

00:55:50.180 who's saying

00:55:50.780 he's in a blue car,

00:55:52.920 he's heading down

00:55:53.520 the street now.

00:55:55.620 So,

00:55:56.840 the head of Hezbollah,

00:55:58.580 clearly not a

00:55:59.560 strategic genius,

00:56:01.180 decided to get

00:56:02.020 what was left

00:56:02.820 of Hezbollah

00:56:03.420 to meet him

00:56:05.420 in person

00:56:05.940 in his command

00:56:06.720 bunker.

00:56:07.120 well,

00:56:09.780 what do you

00:56:10.000 think happened

00:56:10.500 then?

00:56:15.780 I'm not

00:56:16.400 supposed to

00:56:16.840 laugh

00:56:17.320 at war,

00:56:19.280 but did

00:56:21.100 this really

00:56:21.600 happen?

00:56:23.060 Did Israel

00:56:24.040 really figure out

00:56:25.000 a way

00:56:25.380 to kill

00:56:26.500 all of the

00:56:27.120 leaders

00:56:27.420 and then make

00:56:28.280 sure that the

00:56:28.840 new team

00:56:29.300 of leaders

00:56:29.780 all went

00:56:30.380 in the same

00:56:30.800 place at the

00:56:31.420 same time

00:56:31.960 and that they

00:56:32.980 would know

00:56:33.280 where they

00:56:33.600 were and

00:56:34.060 when they

00:56:34.360 were there?

00:56:34.720 and then

00:56:35.900 they would

00:56:36.200 drop a

00:56:37.240 bunch of

00:56:37.600 bunker

00:56:37.920 busters

00:56:38.520 on it

00:56:39.060 and just

00:56:40.280 make it

00:56:40.840 a hole

00:56:42.620 in the

00:56:42.860 ground?

00:56:45.600 Well,

00:56:46.140 there's nothing

00:56:46.580 funny about

00:56:47.180 this situation,

00:56:48.460 but Hezbollah

00:56:50.200 had been telling

00:56:50.780 a lot of

00:56:51.240 lies and

00:56:51.880 Israel decided

00:56:53.660 to debunker

00:56:55.440 him.

00:56:57.220 That's right,

00:56:57.840 they debunkered

00:56:58.460 him.

00:56:58.700 And when

00:57:01.680 they were

00:57:01.980 done,

00:57:02.860 the thing

00:57:04.420 that used

00:57:04.820 to be called

00:57:05.260 a command

00:57:05.760 bunker

00:57:06.300 looked a

00:57:07.860 lot like

00:57:08.320 Justin Bieber's

00:57:09.380 sphincter

00:57:09.880 after a

00:57:10.380 ditty party.

00:57:14.140 I'll just

00:57:14.740 let you live

00:57:15.420 with that one

00:57:15.800 for a while.

00:57:17.460 Take your

00:57:18.020 time.

00:57:18.920 Take your

00:57:19.500 time.

00:57:19.820 Whenever

00:57:20.040 you're done,

00:57:21.120 we'll get

00:57:21.480 back to it.

00:57:22.520 Okay.

00:57:23.660 Looked like

00:57:24.380 Justin Bieber's

00:57:25.320 sphincter

00:57:25.960 after a

00:57:27.240 ditty party.

00:57:28.700 Anyway,

00:57:29.820 we don't

00:57:31.540 see them

00:57:32.120 firing back

00:57:34.480 a whole bunch

00:57:34.980 of missiles.

00:57:36.380 Iran

00:57:36.780 apparently had

00:57:37.580 a big old

00:57:38.000 meeting and

00:57:38.620 Iran thinks

00:57:39.460 some people

00:57:40.420 are saying

00:57:40.760 Iran is

00:57:41.260 going to

00:57:41.500 send some

00:57:42.780 troops to

00:57:49.080 Lebanon.

00:57:49.680 I don't

00:57:49.860 know if

00:57:50.120 that's a

00:57:50.440 good idea

00:57:50.880 for them.

00:57:52.580 But it

00:57:54.880 gets better.

00:57:55.960 Apparently

00:57:56.440 Israel hacked

00:57:57.720 the airport

00:57:58.460 control tower

00:57:59.500 for Lebanon,

00:58:02.260 Beirut, I

00:58:02.700 guess.

00:58:03.900 And since

00:58:05.780 we know

00:58:06.180 that Iran

00:58:06.760 apparently was

00:58:07.420 shipping in

00:58:08.040 supplies and

00:58:08.920 weapons to

00:58:09.800 Hezbollah,

00:58:11.020 they got to

00:58:12.200 the control

00:58:12.680 tower, took

00:58:13.400 it over with

00:58:13.880 hackers, and

00:58:14.540 told the

00:58:14.880 planes they

00:58:15.320 better turn

00:58:15.820 around because

00:58:16.440 they're in

00:58:16.720 trouble if they

00:58:17.240 land.

00:58:18.320 And there's

00:58:18.900 some evidence

00:58:19.400 that one of

00:58:19.920 the planes

00:58:20.340 that was

00:58:20.740 coming from

00:58:21.280 Iran to

00:58:21.960 Lebanon

00:58:22.800 turned around

00:58:23.560 immediately.

00:58:24.580 Turned around

00:58:25.040 immediately, which

00:58:27.460 means it was

00:58:27.980 probably full of

00:58:28.720 weapons.

00:58:30.000 Don't know for

00:58:30.800 sure, but

00:58:31.360 maybe.

00:58:32.220 Well, if any

00:58:33.020 of this is

00:58:33.480 true, Israel

00:58:35.680 basically just

00:58:37.760 rewrote all

00:58:38.660 the war books

00:58:40.320 about how you

00:58:41.180 do anything.

00:58:42.680 The level of

00:58:43.900 brilliance that

00:58:46.120 appears to be

00:58:47.040 here, now

00:58:48.320 remember, this

00:58:49.040 is still fog of

00:58:49.940 war propaganda.

00:58:50.880 And we're

00:58:52.420 getting a

00:58:52.880 version of

00:58:53.420 the news that

00:58:54.120 says Israel

00:58:54.780 is beyond

00:58:55.720 brilliant.

00:58:57.080 So just be

00:58:58.020 careful that

00:58:59.660 you're maybe

00:59:00.520 not seeing all

00:59:01.340 the warts.

00:59:02.100 Maybe things

00:59:02.720 weren't as

00:59:03.220 clean, and

00:59:03.840 maybe there

00:59:04.720 was some

00:59:05.020 luck involved.

00:59:06.300 So we don't

00:59:06.980 know everything.

00:59:08.360 But if we

00:59:08.840 were just to

00:59:09.440 judge it on

00:59:10.760 the surface, it

00:59:12.040 would be the

00:59:12.520 greatest military

00:59:14.220 strategic success

00:59:15.900 of my life.

00:59:18.760 I mean, the

00:59:19.740 the amount

00:59:20.740 that I am

00:59:21.560 impressed by

00:59:23.500 what Israel's

00:59:24.280 done militarily,

00:59:26.000 and again, I

00:59:26.520 want to, if

00:59:27.000 somebody is new

00:59:27.560 to me, I

00:59:28.640 don't back

00:59:29.260 Israel, because

00:59:32.360 they don't

00:59:32.800 back me.

00:59:33.780 It's not my

00:59:34.660 job to back

00:59:35.260 Israel.

00:59:36.160 Now, they're

00:59:36.780 an ally, and I

00:59:37.840 take that

00:59:38.220 seriously, but

00:59:39.400 I'm an

00:59:39.740 American, so

00:59:41.300 I'm sitting

00:59:41.740 over here

00:59:42.100 caring what's

00:59:42.800 good for me.

00:59:45.100 You know,

00:59:45.400 Israel is just

00:59:46.260 something I'm

00:59:46.740 observing, and

00:59:48.400 sometimes I say

00:59:49.260 to myself,

00:59:49.740 all right, if

00:59:50.220 that happened

00:59:50.560 to America,

00:59:51.100 how would

00:59:51.520 we act?

00:59:52.740 Well, we're

00:59:53.180 full of DEI, so

00:59:54.360 we couldn't

00:59:54.960 pull that

00:59:55.960 off, but I

00:59:57.660 wish we

00:59:57.980 could.

00:59:58.700 I wish we

00:59:59.200 were that

00:59:59.520 smart.

01:00:01.980 Anyway,

01:00:02.940 there's a

01:00:05.200 new drone,

01:00:07.860 South Korea

01:00:08.420 made a

01:00:08.820 drone, that

01:00:10.500 works on

01:00:11.120 hydrogen.

01:00:13.040 It's a

01:00:13.340 hydrogen drone,

01:00:14.340 Tech

01:00:14.540 Time says.

01:00:15.580 So this

01:00:16.180 is, it's

01:00:16.640 got a

01:00:16.920 5,800-mile

01:00:18.060 range and

01:00:19.680 can stay

01:00:20.200 in the air

01:00:20.640 for hours

01:00:21.400 compared to

01:00:22.140 30 minutes

01:00:22.940 for a

01:00:23.260 normal drone.

01:00:24.460 So if

01:00:24.840 you've got

01:00:25.220 something that

01:00:25.840 can lift

01:00:26.400 some weight

01:00:27.940 and can

01:00:28.580 go 5,800

01:00:29.660 miles and

01:00:30.680 stay in the

01:00:31.060 air for

01:00:31.380 hours, the

01:00:33.340 degree of

01:00:34.980 warfare you

01:00:35.820 can do with

01:00:36.440 small drones,

01:00:37.500 because these

01:00:37.940 would be

01:00:38.200 smallish ones,

01:00:39.800 is a whole

01:00:41.420 new level.

01:00:41.940 so I

01:00:45.360 don't know

01:00:45.620 how close

01:00:46.040 we are to

01:00:46.500 an all

01:00:46.940 robot war,

01:00:48.260 where it's

01:00:48.760 just drones

01:00:49.320 in the sky

01:00:49.980 because you

01:00:50.440 don't want

01:00:51.020 to waste

01:00:51.300 a pilot,

01:00:52.860 and, you

01:00:55.160 know, robot

01:00:55.620 dogs on the

01:00:56.300 ground.

01:00:56.980 We're pretty

01:00:57.460 close.

01:00:58.780 We're pretty

01:00:59.440 close.

01:01:00.000 We might

01:01:00.420 actually get

01:01:01.040 to the point

01:01:01.580 where if the

01:01:02.560 robots on

01:01:03.180 one side

01:01:03.820 defeat the

01:01:04.940 robots on

01:01:05.500 the other,

01:01:06.440 that the

01:01:06.820 humans will

01:01:07.420 just surrender

01:01:08.020 rather than

01:01:10.180 send humans

01:01:11.180 to fight

01:01:11.600 their robots,

01:01:12.660 which would

01:01:13.040 just be

01:01:13.480 slaughter.

01:01:14.680 We'll just

01:01:15.300 say, all

01:01:15.900 right, your

01:01:16.200 robots beat

01:01:16.840 our robots.

01:01:17.660 We don't

01:01:18.180 like it, but

01:01:18.820 you're in

01:01:19.200 charge now.

01:01:19.800 You own

01:01:20.180 our country.

01:01:21.520 We're getting

01:01:22.140 there.

01:01:22.580 I think you'll

01:01:23.000 see it in

01:01:23.460 your lifetime.

01:01:26.120 Judge Chuck

01:01:26.880 Ken, according

01:01:27.920 to Jeff

01:01:28.860 Clark, she's

01:01:31.140 gaming with

01:01:32.100 the timing of

01:01:33.780 things so that

01:01:34.680 a few weeks

01:01:35.680 before the

01:01:36.160 election, there

01:01:37.340 would be some

01:01:37.800 kind of

01:01:38.320 reveal from

01:01:39.480 Jack Smith.

01:01:40.900 So Jack

01:01:41.560 Smith, the

01:01:42.140 DA, he's

01:01:43.360 got some

01:01:43.740 materials that

01:01:44.660 we haven't

01:01:45.740 seen, but

01:01:47.260 the redacted

01:01:48.060 version might

01:01:48.740 come out

01:01:49.020 mid-October.

01:01:50.460 Now, whatever

01:01:51.100 a prosecutor

01:01:52.960 of Trump

01:01:53.680 produces in

01:01:55.340 mid-October is

01:01:56.680 going to be

01:01:57.060 bad for

01:01:57.540 Trump.

01:01:58.360 Now, do

01:01:58.720 you think it's

01:01:59.340 a huge

01:01:59.780 coincidence that

01:02:01.160 the badness

01:02:01.820 would come

01:02:02.160 out at the

01:02:02.940 very worst

01:02:03.480 time?

01:02:04.280 Do we expect

01:02:05.040 that whatever

01:02:05.560 badness he

01:02:06.420 produces is

01:02:07.760 real, like

01:02:09.260 actually in

01:02:10.080 context and

01:02:10.980 accurate?

01:02:11.980 Nope.

01:02:12.820 I do not

01:02:13.400 believe that.

01:02:14.280 I believe that

01:02:15.060 they would

01:02:15.720 because, remember,

01:02:17.280 Department of

01:02:17.880 Justice are

01:02:18.480 criminals, and

01:02:19.700 the criminals

01:02:20.180 are now

01:02:20.600 legal.

01:02:21.720 So this

01:02:22.120 would be the

01:02:22.480 Department of

01:02:22.980 Justice, now

01:02:23.740 they're criminals.

01:02:26.140 So the

01:02:26.780 criminal thing

01:02:27.380 to do would

01:02:27.940 be to make

01:02:28.580 up a bunch

01:02:29.080 of shit and

01:02:29.860 know that

01:02:30.280 there's no

01:02:30.680 time to

01:02:31.060 correct it

01:02:31.500 before the

01:02:31.900 election, and

01:02:32.820 just depend

01:02:33.600 on the

01:02:34.080 fake news

01:02:35.700 to say it's

01:02:36.280 all true, and

01:02:37.320 then after the

01:02:38.220 election, you

01:02:39.260 do the fact

01:02:39.820 check.

01:02:40.200 It's like, oh,

01:02:40.820 yeah, I guess

01:02:42.520 this wasn't as

01:02:43.660 true as we

01:02:44.120 thought.

01:02:44.840 Sorry about

01:02:45.520 that.

01:02:45.940 Yeah, yeah,

01:02:46.580 sorry.

01:02:47.640 That's what it

01:02:48.240 looks like.

01:02:50.540 Well, one of my

01:02:51.560 favorite things

01:02:52.360 yesterday was

01:02:53.160 that Trump and

01:02:53.880 Zelensky met.

01:02:55.440 Now, that's

01:02:55.900 unusual because

01:02:57.020 Trump is not

01:02:58.020 the sitting

01:02:58.560 president, so

01:02:59.480 you have to be

01:03:00.640 delicate about

01:03:01.320 what you can and

01:03:02.080 cannot do in

01:03:02.640 that situation.

01:03:04.120 But I loved

01:03:05.840 the press

01:03:06.780 conference after

01:03:07.560 where Trump,

01:03:09.520 his six-foot-three

01:03:10.860 is standing

01:03:11.460 over Zelensky

01:03:12.340 is five-six

01:03:13.880 or whatever

01:03:14.260 he is, and

01:03:15.640 Zelensky just

01:03:16.860 looked like he

01:03:18.560 had just been

01:03:19.060 punished by his

01:03:19.980 parents.

01:03:21.360 Like, he

01:03:21.700 looked like a

01:03:22.400 defeated, he

01:03:23.780 didn't look like

01:03:24.360 Zelensky of old.

01:03:25.880 Give us

01:03:26.340 weapons, we'll

01:03:27.080 fight every day,

01:03:27.860 we'll win.

01:03:28.860 And Trump is

01:03:29.760 just saying,

01:03:31.700 what was

01:03:32.060 Trump saying?

01:03:33.100 He was

01:03:33.360 saying, basically

01:03:34.540 it's over, we

01:03:35.320 need to negotiate

01:03:36.180 a deal, we'll

01:03:37.780 just figure out

01:03:38.400 who gets what

01:03:38.940 land, we'll

01:03:39.680 sort it out.

01:03:41.460 Now, that's

01:03:41.940 when Zelensky

01:03:42.960 in the past

01:03:44.640 would have

01:03:46.020 said something

01:03:46.520 like, no, we

01:03:47.840 will fight, we

01:03:48.460 must get every

01:03:49.080 inch of land

01:03:49.720 back, we will

01:03:50.380 never quit, they

01:03:51.480 can't steal our

01:03:52.240 land.

01:03:52.960 The best he

01:03:53.880 could do,

01:03:55.100 because he

01:03:55.480 knows there's a

01:03:56.120 good chance he's

01:03:56.800 going to be

01:03:57.100 dealing with Trump

01:03:57.840 in the future,

01:03:58.900 the best he

01:03:59.580 could do is

01:04:00.720 remind us that

01:04:01.620 Russia is on

01:04:02.560 Ukrainian land.

01:04:04.700 And so, when

01:04:05.180 they negotiate,

01:04:06.240 you know, that

01:04:06.640 should be top

01:04:08.380 of mind.

01:04:09.940 But even he

01:04:10.920 was talking about

01:04:11.600 negotiating.

01:04:13.360 Now, correct

01:04:16.040 me if I'm

01:04:16.560 wrong.

01:04:18.240 So now,

01:04:18.660 Zelensky seems

01:04:19.600 on board with

01:04:20.340 negotiating, and

01:04:21.240 obviously some

01:04:22.220 kind of land

01:04:23.280 agreement will

01:04:24.700 have to happen.

01:04:25.860 Putin, of

01:04:26.340 course, is

01:04:26.860 interested in

01:04:27.660 negotiating, and

01:04:29.360 they're the two

01:04:29.860 sides.

01:04:31.200 Who's not

01:04:31.920 interested in

01:04:32.640 negotiating?

01:04:35.440 Democrats, and

01:04:36.940 the deep state, and

01:04:38.040 the military-industrial

01:04:39.200 complex.

01:04:40.560 But if you put

01:04:41.940 Trump in there,

01:04:43.260 there's nobody

01:04:44.080 left who wants

01:04:44.840 the war.

01:04:46.420 Zelensky doesn't

01:04:47.160 really want any

01:04:47.800 more of it.

01:04:49.040 You know, he'd

01:04:49.440 love to win, but

01:04:50.420 doesn't seem to be

01:04:51.340 an option, so

01:04:52.080 forget about that.

01:04:53.760 Yeah.

01:04:54.240 All it takes is a

01:04:55.960 President Trump.

01:04:56.700 Now, when he'd

01:04:58.860 been saying he

01:04:59.560 could get it

01:05:00.280 done in a day,

01:05:01.680 you know, that's

01:05:02.220 hyperbole.

01:05:03.200 Nobody could do

01:05:03.860 it in a day.

01:05:05.560 But basically, he

01:05:06.720 could, because all

01:05:08.340 it takes is Trump

01:05:09.160 to be President, and

01:05:10.100 then there's nobody

01:05:10.740 in the game who

01:05:11.460 wants to keep

01:05:11.940 fighting, because

01:05:13.340 Ukraine and

01:05:14.040 Russia definitely

01:05:14.680 don't.

01:05:15.820 They definitely

01:05:16.280 don't.

01:05:17.240 And as long as

01:05:17.920 Trump doesn't,

01:05:18.900 there's nobody

01:05:19.320 left.

01:05:20.200 So yes, he

01:05:21.640 could wind it up

01:05:22.460 as soon as he

01:05:23.500 gets in there.

01:05:23.960 I wonder if

01:05:25.700 Trump actually

01:05:26.380 worried that he

01:05:28.100 could end the

01:05:28.880 war before he

01:05:29.520 got in office, and

01:05:30.400 before there's even

01:05:31.080 an election, so

01:05:32.460 that it wouldn't

01:05:32.920 count in his

01:05:33.460 benefit on the

01:05:34.120 election.

01:05:35.500 But if you want

01:05:36.280 to end this war,

01:05:37.580 you now have a

01:05:38.400 100% obvious way

01:05:40.920 to do it that you

01:05:42.000 control as a

01:05:43.120 citizen.

01:05:43.760 You can just vote

01:05:44.480 for Trump, and

01:05:45.640 this war is over.

01:06:50.800 Bill Maher had a show

01:06:52.900 last night.

01:06:53.540 We always talk about

01:06:54.420 him.

01:06:54.840 He is, you know, I

01:06:55.920 know it bothers some

01:06:56.740 people that Bill Maher

01:06:58.280 is always at discussion

01:06:59.260 the next day because

01:07:00.360 blah, blah, blah.

01:07:03.460 But he is a good

01:07:06.120 indicator of what

01:07:07.320 people are thinking.

01:07:08.640 And on that basis, it's

01:07:10.100 fascinating.

01:07:10.580 And he actually said

01:07:14.900 that we should defend

01:07:16.480 Ukraine and that it's

01:07:19.580 basically so little money

01:07:21.380 for the United States that

01:07:23.640 we're, you know, getting

01:07:24.500 some benefit of degrading

01:07:25.920 Russia.

01:07:26.680 We're protecting our

01:07:27.940 ally, kind of an ally.

01:07:32.440 And this is what Maher says

01:07:35.480 about the money.

01:07:36.160 Uh, he says that

01:07:39.260 basically none of us know

01:07:40.740 that none of us can tell

01:07:42.140 the difference.

01:07:43.140 The amount of money we

01:07:44.280 spent in Ukraine, you

01:07:45.820 saying that, you know, you

01:07:46.740 and I don't feel it.

01:07:49.820 To which I say, have you

01:07:51.920 heard of inflation?

01:07:53.680 Now, I don't know how

01:07:54.680 much of the, um, let's

01:07:56.780 see if our, if our deficit

01:07:59.080 per year is in the over a

01:08:01.400 trillion dollar range, is

01:08:03.780 it like 1.3 trillion?

01:08:05.440 Somewhere in that range.

01:08:07.480 And how much do we give

01:08:08.960 to, um, Ukraine every

01:08:11.180 year?

01:08:12.220 A few hundred billion?

01:08:14.140 Do we spend a few hundred

01:08:15.680 billion per year?

01:08:17.380 So maybe 15% of our

01:08:20.980 deficit?

01:08:22.200 Something like that.

01:08:23.520 And then, of course, we

01:08:24.600 have to build up our own

01:08:25.500 military because, you

01:08:27.460 know, we're, we're

01:08:28.060 spending, sending our

01:08:29.240 bullets over there, so

01:08:30.300 we got to buy our own

01:08:31.160 bullets or something.

01:08:32.720 So, um, he is correct.

01:08:35.440 That we cannot identify

01:08:36.700 the difference in our

01:08:38.200 life from the Ukraine

01:08:39.540 expenses.

01:08:40.060 I can't identify, okay,

01:08:42.380 how much of my inflation

01:08:43.500 was because of that war?

01:08:45.220 It might be 10%.

01:08:46.560 But it's also not ending.

01:08:49.460 And the amount we're

01:08:50.460 spending isn't really the

01:08:51.740 total issue.

01:08:52.820 It's about whether we

01:08:53.940 should be having a war

01:08:54.820 with a nuclear power.

01:08:56.200 And what are we getting

01:08:57.200 from it?

01:08:57.740 And is it worth 200

01:08:58.680 billion?

01:08:59.080 And if we've got 200

01:09:00.560 billion extra to spend

01:09:01.740 on anything, is that

01:09:02.740 where you want it to go?

01:09:04.060 Because 200 billion is

01:09:05.100 real money.

01:09:06.900 Um, anyway, so far it's

01:09:09.640 been 10 billion here, 7

01:09:11.100 billion there.

01:09:11.800 I don't know what it

01:09:12.300 adds up to.

01:09:12.800 Um, and, uh, all right.

01:09:19.820 Vivek Ramaswamy says that,

01:09:21.960 uh, Musk is a super

01:09:23.780 hardcore about firing

01:09:25.080 federal employees working

01:09:26.620 with Trump.

01:09:27.800 And, uh, I saw this on the

01:09:29.420 George account, good account

01:09:30.940 to follow on X, George.

01:09:33.020 Uh, he's, uh, Ramaswamy

01:09:35.740 said, it looks like Elon will

01:09:37.540 use Ozempic on the

01:09:38.760 government's fat.

01:09:40.760 And here's a quote, uh,

01:09:42.420 Elon's pretty hardcore.

01:09:43.740 And Vivek says, I said,

01:09:45.540 75% of the federal

01:09:46.980 bureaucrats, he said,

01:09:48.460 you need to put at least

01:09:49.680 75.

01:09:51.640 So Elon Musk's

01:09:53.140 correction to Vivek, who

01:09:54.640 wanted to get rid of 75%

01:09:56.160 of the bureaucrats was

01:09:57.680 you should say at least.

01:10:00.800 How much do you love that?

01:10:03.180 How much do you love that,

01:10:05.240 that if you can imagine

01:10:06.640 that you could ever get

01:10:08.220 rid of 75% of the, the, uh,

01:10:10.320 bureaucrats, um, that you

01:10:15.640 should really be saying

01:10:16.500 more.

01:10:18.980 I get, I just love that.

01:10:20.460 I don't know that they can

01:10:21.660 get rid of more than 75%,

01:10:23.480 but the fact that he's not

01:10:25.680 going to be limited by your

01:10:26.760 75% estimate, I love that.

01:10:29.860 It's at least 75%.

01:10:31.420 Anyway.

01:10:35.020 Um, according to the gateway

01:10:37.940 pundit, Antonio Grossefo,

01:10:40.780 writer, he's got an argument

01:10:43.760 in their opinion piece that

01:10:45.400 liberal policies are driving

01:10:47.580 up our obesity rates.

01:10:48.980 now up to 40% of the adults

01:10:51.800 or is it everybody, uh, 40%

01:10:54.980 are obese.

01:10:56.740 I don't know if that's 40% of it.

01:10:58.660 Oh yeah, it is adults and

01:11:00.180 20% of children.

01:11:01.900 Now, when I saw that opinion,

01:11:03.380 I said to myself, I don't know

01:11:05.340 if I want to read this because

01:11:07.220 I don't think he's going to

01:11:08.200 convince me that liberal policies

01:11:10.020 are making people fat.

01:11:12.220 Cause I said to myself, how,

01:11:15.400 how are liberal policies

01:11:17.800 making anybody fat?

01:11:19.820 Explain that.

01:11:21.000 And he talked about how

01:11:22.320 school gym classes are

01:11:23.740 cutting way back.

01:11:24.620 So kids are less active in

01:11:25.800 school.

01:11:26.360 And I said, hmm, public

01:11:28.720 schools.

01:11:29.320 Okay.

01:11:29.600 Democrats pretty much have a

01:11:31.320 lock on everything that

01:11:32.440 happens in a public school.

01:11:33.580 So yeah, I guess.

01:11:34.460 Okay.

01:11:35.300 Yeah.

01:11:35.520 Less physical activity.

01:11:36.520 Sure.

01:11:37.440 Uh, then there's fat

01:11:39.520 acceptance.

01:11:40.040 The idea that Democrats are

01:11:43.360 pushing the idea that you

01:11:44.420 don't need to lose weight.

01:11:45.460 You're perfectly healthy.

01:11:46.960 Nobody should judge you.

01:11:48.600 And while I agree with the

01:11:50.140 notion that I don't like

01:11:51.860 fat shaming, there's no

01:11:54.400 question that the public

01:11:57.680 attitude toward, toward it

01:11:59.380 has an impact on how people

01:12:01.160 act, right?

01:12:02.100 If people say you're fine,

01:12:03.960 you can be any weight you

01:12:05.060 want.

01:12:05.400 There's going to be more

01:12:06.040 people overweight.

01:12:06.840 If, if the public says

01:12:08.480 cruelly, cruelly, don't be

01:12:11.220 like that, there's probably

01:12:12.980 going to be less of it.

01:12:14.000 People are going to try

01:12:14.760 harder.

01:12:15.340 Now there might also be some,

01:12:16.420 uh, food related, uh,

01:12:19.640 illnesses, but that's a

01:12:21.380 separate question.

01:12:22.920 I'm talking about, uh,

01:12:24.700 anorexia, for example.

01:12:27.840 Um, there are food deserts

01:12:29.680 now in a lot of poor areas

01:12:31.340 because, uh, the crime was

01:12:34.080 so high that, uh, places that

01:12:36.820 would sell you healthier food

01:12:37.980 like a grocery store just

01:12:39.620 said, oh, we're out.

01:12:41.240 You know, here's, there's

01:12:42.020 still a McDonald's.

01:12:42.860 So good luck.

01:12:44.760 That feels fair.

01:12:45.940 And then of course the

01:12:46.580 pandemic and the lockdown

01:12:47.720 had some lasting effects.

01:12:49.560 So I'm not sure, uh, you

01:12:52.240 know, how much of the

01:12:53.180 obesity is because of

01:12:54.700 liberal policies, but I do

01:12:56.900 think that, uh, Antonio

01:12:58.380 made his case.

01:12:59.700 He made his case.

01:13:01.340 It's just, we can't tell

01:13:02.660 what percentage of the

01:13:03.740 whole problem is caused by

01:13:04.920 that, but it's not making

01:13:05.720 it better anyway.

01:13:07.460 There's now jets that are

01:13:08.920 going to be able to do

01:13:09.740 automatic takeoffs and

01:13:11.340 landings, according to CNN.

01:13:13.860 Um, and if he didn't know

01:13:17.260 this, and this is weird, uh,

01:13:20.160 the more advanced planes

01:13:21.580 could already land in bad

01:13:24.180 weather and stuff, um, on

01:13:26.080 instruments.

01:13:26.780 Well, it could, it could

01:13:28.120 land autonomously.

01:13:29.640 So even if the pilot dropped

01:13:31.280 dead, the advanced planes

01:13:33.280 could just land and, and the

01:13:35.080 landing, some say they, the

01:13:37.480 machine would do it better

01:13:38.460 than the pilot pilot can

01:13:40.580 make a human error.

01:13:41.760 The machines much less

01:13:43.520 likely.

01:13:44.580 But what I didn't know is

01:13:46.180 that the, um, the planes

01:13:48.140 were not equipped to take

01:13:49.540 off without a pilot, which

01:13:52.620 seems weird.

01:13:53.180 It seems like taking off

01:13:54.360 would be easier than

01:13:55.220 landing, but take you off

01:13:56.620 is actually harder.

01:13:57.840 I mean, or it can be.

01:13:59.320 So it's actually a big

01:14:01.920 deal that airplanes are

01:14:03.240 learning to take off on

01:14:04.740 their own at the same

01:14:05.680 time that, uh, robo

01:14:07.360 taxis are coming on.

01:14:08.880 So the idea of having a

01:14:10.380 human sitting behind a

01:14:11.740 steering wheel for

01:14:12.900 anything, it will be

01:14:15.040 largely defunct except for

01:14:17.220 recreational stuff like,

01:14:19.160 I don't know, maybe your

01:14:20.560 fishing boat or something.

01:14:23.800 Anyway.

01:14:27.180 And that, ladies and

01:14:28.420 gentlemen, is all I wanted

01:14:31.060 to say that's worth saying

01:14:32.120 today.

01:14:33.820 Uh, we'll keep an eye on

01:14:34.940 whatever's happening with

01:14:35.960 Hezbollah and Israel.

01:14:38.120 But, uh, as I've said

01:14:39.560 before, if Israel's going to

01:14:41.320 get tough with its, its,

01:14:43.660 uh, enemies and neighbors,

01:14:45.160 there's never been a better

01:14:47.260 time in history to do it.

01:14:49.820 Because first of all, it

01:14:50.940 seems like they have, you

01:14:51.920 know, a good handle on the

01:14:52.980 military strategy, obviously.

01:14:55.760 But also there's no

01:14:57.080 leadership in the United

01:14:58.040 States.

01:14:59.480 So that if they can get

01:15:00.760 themselves a little bit

01:15:01.740 pregnant, you know, make

01:15:02.820 sure that they're well into

01:15:03.940 a war against Hezbollah or

01:15:05.760 Iran or whoever they decide

01:15:07.160 to go to war with.

01:15:08.620 Um, if they do it now, Trump

01:15:10.620 won't be able to stop them

01:15:11.680 because he's not president

01:15:12.800 and Biden's barely a

01:15:15.280 president and Harris is out

01:15:16.940 in the road.

01:15:18.060 So if you were going to make a

01:15:19.560 big move, um, and you're

01:15:22.580 Israel, it's going to happen

01:15:23.820 now.

01:15:24.980 So I would expect maximum

01:15:27.600 chaos.

01:15:29.400 Um, but there's also a

01:15:32.200 possibility that Israel will

01:15:35.380 have a surprisingly fast and

01:15:38.140 good result in Lebanon.

01:15:40.180 Because a lot of the Lebanese

01:15:41.860 I'm hearing are not so pro

01:15:43.720 Hezbollah.

01:15:44.760 So if Israel could find a way

01:15:46.540 to be, um, let's say

01:15:48.500 accurate enough to take out

01:15:51.400 Hezbollah without killing

01:15:53.060 much in the way of innocent

01:15:54.300 Lebanese people who don't

01:15:55.860 like Hezbollah either, they

01:15:58.780 might be able to find a

01:16:00.520 workable situation there.

01:16:02.060 Maybe.

01:16:03.040 Imagine how different that

01:16:04.160 would be if Lebanon were no

01:16:05.300 longer an enemy of Israel, or

01:16:06.880 at least parts of it.

01:16:09.700 So Hezbollah being bad actors

01:16:11.600 and Hamas being bad actors,

01:16:13.320 maybe something can change.

01:16:14.720 We'll see.

01:16:15.820 All right, ladies and

01:16:16.500 gentlemen, that's all I have

01:16:17.300 for you.

01:16:17.700 I'm going to talk to the local

01:16:19.420 subscribers privately because of

01:16:21.280 their awesomeness.

01:16:22.640 But I'll see the rest of you on

01:16:24.380 YouTube and Rumble and X

01:16:28.000 tomorrow, same time, same place.
