00:00:00.000 deserving. The show you deserve, not just
00:00:04.360 the one you want.
00:00:07.980 Alright. Here it comes.
00:00:13.540 Do-do-do-do-do-do.
00:00:17.900 Do-do-do-do-do.
00:00:20.720 Oh. My device fell off its stand.
00:00:25.600 Come back here, device. Get back where I put you. 0.97
00:00:30.000 And stay. It's the golden age, haven't you heard?
00:00:33.420 You can't be just falling down on your own.
00:00:38.420 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to
00:00:42.420 the highlight of human civilization.
00:00:46.060 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time.
00:00:49.900 But if you'd like to take your experience up to levels
00:00:53.260 that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains,
00:00:56.980 all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or gels
00:01:00.820 or stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:01:03.920 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:01:05.600 I like coffee.
00:01:07.540 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure,
00:01:09.500 the dopamine, the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:01:11.840 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens.
00:01:15.020 Now.
00:01:15.760 Go.
00:01:15.980 Oh, delicious.
00:01:26.560 Unparalleled.
00:01:27.800 So good, I can barely sit still.
00:01:33.460 Well, I'm going to make a prediction about the drones.
00:01:36.980 We're not going to find out about the drones.
00:01:39.040 I just feel that way.
00:01:43.740 And here's why I feel it.
00:01:45.400 If you imagine all of the reasons that the prior administration
00:01:50.280 wouldn't have told us about the drones,
00:01:53.720 what would be an example of something that would be different
00:01:56.600 if there's a Republican president?
00:02:00.500 Because whatever it is that's making our government not want to talk about it,
00:02:05.280 it wouldn't change under Trump, would it?
00:02:07.960 Do you think the problem was that the aliens we've detected are Democrats?
00:02:14.400 And then the Democrats are like, whoa, whoa, keep this under your hat.
00:02:18.020 It turns out the aliens are on our side.
00:02:19.860 They're Democrats.
00:02:21.100 No, no.
00:02:23.740 What could it be except there's some risk to the country?
00:02:27.880 And whoever told Biden there's a risk to the country
00:02:30.920 is going to tell Trump the same thing.
00:02:32.980 Do you think that Trump would feel safe, you know,
00:02:35.500 as bravely as he is and as, let's say, as out of the box as he is,
00:02:42.020 do you think he would be safe, feel safe,
00:02:45.200 tell you something that his own security people said,
00:02:47.720 whatever you do, don't tell him this?
00:02:50.840 I don't think we're going to find out.
00:02:52.960 So here's part of the reason.
00:02:54.360 So we saw him when he was signing his executive orders on his first day there.
00:02:59.360 He said to his chief of staff, Susie Wiles,
00:03:03.180 can you find out about those drones?
00:03:05.600 How long would it take her to find out about the drones?
00:03:10.340 Well, maybe she couldn't find out personally,
00:03:13.100 but certainly she could say,
00:03:14.880 Mr. President, they'll give you a call
00:03:17.840 or they'll be in your office tomorrow.
00:03:20.040 It'll only take 10 minutes,
00:03:21.240 and they'll tell you what the drone situation is.
00:03:24.320 I don't think it's going to happen.
00:03:26.500 So put down your markers.
00:03:28.820 We'll make a bet on this.
00:03:30.700 I say that we'll either hear something that doesn't sound right,
00:03:35.640 like, oh, it's just normal drones,
00:03:38.400 and then you'll say, is it?
00:03:40.640 Is it really?
00:03:42.040 And you're not going to believe it.
00:03:44.240 Or it'll be something like,
00:03:46.000 whoops, turns out I can't tell you,
00:03:48.880 which will scare the bejesus out of you.
00:03:51.560 So I don't think Trump can say,
00:03:54.240 after saying he would reveal it,
00:03:55.640 I don't think he can go back and say,
00:03:57.240 oh, it's really dangerous, I can't tell you.
00:04:00.000 Because then we're just going to go crazy,
00:04:02.080 saying, what do you mean?
00:04:02.940 Is it aliens?
00:04:04.060 Is it Russia?
00:04:04.940 You've got to tell us.
00:04:06.240 So he can't scare us.
00:04:08.640 That would just be a stupid mistake.
00:04:10.300 He's not going to do that.
00:04:12.480 But he probably can't tell us.
00:04:14.960 So I think we're going to get the in-between answer,
00:04:17.720 like, well, you know,
00:04:19.320 we're still looking into it,
00:04:20.700 and blah, blah, blah,
00:04:21.900 a big old nothing.
00:04:24.780 But meanwhile,
00:04:25.640 the New Jersey drones are back in force.
00:04:28.580 So the one thing he can't tell us
00:04:30.420 is that it's stopped.
00:04:32.080 Whatever it is,
00:04:32.980 there's a lot of it now,
00:04:33.960 and it's back to its original thing.
00:04:37.900 Now, remember when the New Jersey drones
00:04:40.080 were temporarily banned?
00:04:42.700 The number of them went way down.
00:04:45.260 So the one thing we do know
00:04:46.640 is that the American drone users
00:04:50.200 who follow the law
00:04:52.120 were part of the massive drone spottings.
00:04:56.920 But there still were drones flying
00:04:59.240 when drones were banned.
00:05:01.700 So there's still a mystery there.
00:05:03.200 But a lot of them were just
00:05:05.080 hobbyist stuff, it looks like.
00:05:07.340 Meanwhile, Pete Hegseth
00:05:08.740 gets some more 11th hour accusations.
00:05:13.120 So here's the weird thing.
00:05:15.420 The accusations from,
00:05:16.920 I understand,
00:05:17.480 the sister of his ex-wife
00:05:19.320 saying that he maybe laid hands
00:05:21.900 on his wife, his ex-wife.
00:05:23.740 But the ex-wife says, 0.99
00:05:25.320 that didn't happen.
00:05:27.300 Or she's a little more vague about that,
00:05:29.400 but she's essentially debunking the claim. 0.99
00:05:33.600 But she's debunking it in,
00:05:36.360 you know, let's say,
00:05:37.400 in the least revealing way.
00:05:41.020 Basically, she doesn't want to be involved
00:05:43.060 and she says that the accusations
00:05:44.760 are inaccurate.
00:05:46.860 Now, I have to say,
00:05:49.080 if you had to pick your own ex-wife,
00:05:54.660 having an ex-wife that supports you
00:05:56.760 in this situation,
00:05:58.040 that's pretty impressive.
00:05:59.960 And, you know,
00:06:00.460 if you share children,
00:06:01.700 I think they do, right?
00:06:03.920 If you're thinking about
00:06:04.960 the well-being of the children,
00:06:07.660 any little thing that,
00:06:09.580 you know, maybe was a gray area
00:06:11.200 or maybe went too far
00:06:12.620 during your marriage,
00:06:13.320 if it doesn't bother you
00:06:14.500 at this point,
00:06:15.460 and you think your children
00:06:16.580 will be much better off
00:06:17.740 if their father has,
00:06:19.800 you know,
00:06:19.980 the job of all jobs?
00:06:21.360 I mean,
00:06:21.680 that's a hell of a job
00:06:22.660 he's up for, right?
00:06:24.340 So,
00:06:24.980 I kind of like the fact
00:06:26.320 that she's just loyal,
00:06:27.980 even as an ex-wife,
00:06:29.780 because she's being loyal
00:06:30.760 to her children,
00:06:32.100 primarily.
00:06:32.900 Now, that's my take
00:06:33.760 without having any inside knowledge
00:06:36.200 or anything that's happening.
00:06:37.560 But,
00:06:38.100 the only thing I'm going to take away
00:06:39.520 from this
00:06:39.960 is I'm impressed.
00:06:42.120 I'm impressed by the ex-wife. 1.00
00:06:44.520 That's all.
00:06:46.460 Anything else,
00:06:47.480 I don't know about it.
00:06:48.880 And if she's okay with it,
00:06:51.020 I'm okay with it.
00:06:53.060 That's her decision.
00:06:56.420 You might know by now
00:06:57.880 that Ross Albrecht got pardoned,
00:07:00.420 the founder of the Silk Road.
00:07:01.740 He went to jail in 2015
00:07:03.060 on drug trafficking,
00:07:04.780 conspiracy to commit money laundering
00:07:06.780 and computer hacking.
00:07:08.420 He was also allegedly involved
00:07:11.260 in some murder plots,
00:07:12.420 but nobody got murdered.
00:07:13.860 I guess those people
00:07:15.460 it looks like those charges
00:07:17.280 never became part
00:07:18.640 of the sentencing.
00:07:20.700 And,
00:07:21.340 but anyway,
00:07:22.140 just for the charges
00:07:23.100 he was charged with,
00:07:24.480 he got two life sentences
00:07:25.720 plus 40 years.
00:07:28.060 I've never even heard
00:07:29.200 of anybody getting
00:07:29.900 a charge that big.
00:07:32.080 Now,
00:07:33.180 you know my history.
00:07:34.560 I lost my stepson
00:07:35.680 to a fentanyl overdose.
00:07:37.680 So,
00:07:38.120 I was never big
00:07:39.080 on releasing them.
00:07:41.000 And people would bother me
00:07:42.860 all the time.
00:07:43.800 Release them,
00:07:44.400 release them.
00:07:44.940 It's really just about freedom.
00:07:46.440 And people would take the drugs
00:07:48.300 or,
00:07:48.740 you know,
00:07:49.000 it's up to them.
00:07:50.500 You know,
00:07:51.400 I wasn't on board
00:07:53.560 because I had a personal connection.
00:07:56.020 And,
00:07:56.840 you know,
00:07:57.120 there was no part of,
00:07:58.020 there was no part of my
00:07:59.120 logical mind
00:08:01.180 that was operating.
00:08:02.960 And I don't apologize for that.
00:08:04.860 Trust me.
00:08:05.460 If you lose a child,
00:08:07.840 you,
00:08:08.240 I'm not going to ask you
00:08:08.980 to be logical.
00:08:10.140 And don't ask me
00:08:11.100 to be logical about it.
00:08:12.840 So,
00:08:13.860 but in the end,
00:08:15.340 I was swayed
00:08:17.340 by the fact
00:08:17.900 that there's something
00:08:18.720 wrong with the case.
00:08:20.660 Now,
00:08:21.180 I still don't know
00:08:21.980 all the details,
00:08:22.740 but how in the world
00:08:24.440 do those charges
00:08:25.420 get you two life sentences
00:08:26.900 plus 40 years
00:08:28.120 when violent people
00:08:30.560 are attacking people
00:08:32.400 and being released
00:08:33.120 almost immediately?
00:08:35.480 So,
00:08:36.200 so Trump said something
00:08:37.800 that maybe he knows
00:08:39.000 more than I do
00:08:39.760 on this.
00:08:40.800 He said,
00:08:41.240 quote,
00:08:41.620 the scum that worked
00:08:42.660 to convict him
00:08:43.640 were some of the same
00:08:44.860 lunatics who were involved
00:08:46.200 in the modern day
00:08:46.940 weaponization of government
00:08:48.280 against me.
00:08:49.620 He was given
00:08:50.380 two life sentences
00:08:51.400 plus 40 years.
00:08:53.100 Does Trump know
00:08:53.920 something about this case
00:08:55.180 that we don't know?
00:08:57.640 Is he simply
00:08:58.500 looking at the players
00:08:59.500 and as soon as
00:09:00.340 he saw the players
00:09:01.080 he said,
00:09:01.720 oh,
00:09:01.900 this is crooked?
00:09:03.520 Maybe is that enough?
00:09:04.780 Is it enough
00:09:05.300 just to know
00:09:05.840 who sent him to jail?
00:09:08.200 Because I got
00:09:08.940 all kinds of questions
00:09:10.020 about the real story.
00:09:12.160 I can say
00:09:13.200 with some certainty
00:09:13.980 there's more to this
00:09:14.880 than we know.
00:09:17.240 What I hope,
00:09:19.000 what I hope
00:09:19.720 is that Trump
00:09:20.660 knows everything
00:09:21.340 that needs to be known
00:09:22.300 about this story
00:09:23.120 and that his decision
00:09:24.840 is consistent
00:09:25.580 with him knowing
00:09:26.320 more than we do.
00:09:27.660 That's what I hope.
00:09:29.160 However,
00:09:30.240 I'm going to make
00:09:31.120 a larger opinion
00:09:31.880 on pardons.
00:09:33.780 We can argue
00:09:34.800 all day
00:09:35.340 whether Biden's
00:09:36.860 pardons were
00:09:37.640 appropriate
00:09:38.440 and blah,
00:09:39.220 blah, blah.
00:09:39.760 And they can argue
00:09:40.740 all day
00:09:41.240 whether the January 5th
00:09:42.760 and the Ross Ulbricht
00:09:43.760 and some other pardons
00:09:45.120 are okay or not.
00:09:46.580 But why are we arguing
00:09:48.380 them?
00:09:49.560 Why would we have
00:09:50.720 that conversation
00:09:51.500 at all?
00:09:52.820 The whole point
00:09:53.660 of a pardon
00:09:54.660 is pardoning people
00:09:56.480 who are
00:09:57.020 guilty usually
00:09:58.560 or even
00:09:59.900 presumed guilty
00:10:00.620 as in the case
00:10:01.300 of some of the
00:10:01.760 preemptive ones.
00:10:05.680 But you either
00:10:06.960 give a president
00:10:08.380 that power
00:10:09.080 or you don't.
00:10:10.260 So here's my
00:10:11.020 larger take.
00:10:12.920 If there were
00:10:13.640 no such thing
00:10:14.340 as pardons,
00:10:15.540 well,
00:10:16.620 then we should
00:10:17.300 discuss about
00:10:18.120 how a president
00:10:19.260 should handle it.
00:10:20.160 But if the rule
00:10:20.880 is that any president
00:10:21.900 can give any pardon
00:10:23.020 and it's a permanent
00:10:24.360 pardon,
00:10:25.240 then you have to
00:10:27.040 live with the fact
00:10:27.680 that you're not
00:10:28.180 going to like them.
00:10:29.760 So if somebody
00:10:31.060 does something
00:10:31.660 with a pardon
00:10:32.240 that you don't like,
00:10:33.420 I just don't know
00:10:34.780 what's the point
00:10:35.360 of talking about it.
00:10:37.700 I feel like
00:10:38.740 we give this power
00:10:39.680 to presidents
00:10:40.240 with the full knowledge
00:10:41.540 it will be abused.
00:10:42.900 Wouldn't you agree?
00:10:44.420 We give this power
00:10:45.560 to presidents
00:10:46.280 with the full eyes
00:10:48.320 open every single
00:10:49.460 person knows
00:10:50.260 they're going to
00:10:51.140 abuse it
00:10:51.700 because it's like
00:10:53.100 a superpower.
00:10:53.900 Of course they're
00:10:54.360 going to abuse it
00:10:55.100 because there's no risk.
00:10:57.460 So if you want
00:10:58.840 presidents to have
00:10:59.660 the ability to
00:11:00.460 sometimes free
00:11:01.680 a good guy
00:11:02.400 and some of you
00:11:04.260 think that Ross
00:11:05.220 would be in that
00:11:05.740 category,
00:11:06.640 I think that's
00:11:07.740 debatable.
00:11:08.520 But if you want
00:11:09.580 them to have that
00:11:10.120 power at all,
00:11:10.760 you just have
00:11:11.960 to suck it up 0.97
00:11:12.840 and you're going
00:11:14.080 to have to just
00:11:14.720 take all the
00:11:15.960 ones you hate
00:11:16.780 and just live
00:11:18.380 with it
00:11:18.800 and just move
00:11:19.640 on.
00:11:20.500 So I'm in more
00:11:21.760 than you live
00:11:22.200 with it and move
00:11:22.720 on category
00:11:23.300 about all these
00:11:24.180 things.
00:11:24.640 But when it
00:11:25.520 comes to the
00:11:26.020 J6ers, 1.00
00:11:27.640 as a post
00:11:28.540 millennial,
00:11:29.500 millennial is
00:11:30.300 reporting,
00:11:31.840 and give me a
00:11:32.920 fact check if
00:11:33.700 this hasn't
00:11:34.240 changed in the
00:11:35.060 last couple hours,
00:11:35.900 but the
00:11:37.100 DC jail
00:11:38.660 or prison,
00:11:40.540 whatever's the
00:11:41.400 right word for
00:11:41.880 that,
00:11:42.680 did not release
00:11:43.700 the people who
00:11:44.460 were pardoned.
00:11:45.880 So some of the
00:11:46.720 other prisons
00:11:47.280 did,
00:11:48.360 but the DC
00:11:49.240 one didn't.
00:11:51.180 Now,
00:11:53.280 I understood,
00:11:55.140 I could kind of
00:11:55.780 understood if it
00:11:56.580 didn't happen the
00:11:57.220 first night,
00:11:58.500 because,
00:11:58.820 you know,
00:11:58.940 it's MLK day,
00:12:01.020 vacations,
00:12:02.280 there's probably a
00:12:02.820 process,
00:12:03.260 you can't
00:12:03.900 really skip
00:12:04.360 the process,
00:12:05.360 because they're
00:12:05.740 bureaucrats.
00:12:06.860 So I understand
00:12:07.860 why there was
00:12:08.840 one extra night,
00:12:10.580 as horrible as
00:12:11.860 it is,
00:12:12.700 you could explain
00:12:13.680 it away with
00:12:14.260 just inefficiency,
00:12:15.600 they just didn't
00:12:16.840 have enough people.
00:12:18.620 But a second
00:12:19.400 night?
00:12:20.680 A second
00:12:21.300 night?
00:12:22.480 No,
00:12:22.800 a second night
00:12:23.480 you send in
00:12:24.200 the law enforcement
00:12:25.840 and you arrest
00:12:26.640 the management
00:12:28.220 of the jail.
00:12:29.520 I think you
00:12:30.540 arrest them.
00:12:31.840 And indeed,
00:12:32.460 I would free
00:12:33.020 the prisoners
00:12:33.580 and just slap 1.00
00:12:34.380 them in the
00:12:35.000 jails that are
00:12:35.620 open.
00:12:36.620 Of course,
00:12:37.120 you can't do
00:12:37.600 that,
00:12:37.980 but it sounds
00:12:39.120 funny when I
00:12:39.700 say it.
00:12:41.860 I don't think
00:12:42.620 you mess around
00:12:43.240 with this.
00:12:44.320 If you let
00:12:45.020 them get away
00:12:45.600 with this even
00:12:46.140 one more day,
00:12:47.440 I'm not going
00:12:49.020 to be happy.
00:12:50.980 You know,
00:12:51.580 if you let
00:12:52.100 them just
00:12:52.480 override your
00:12:53.380 presidential
00:12:54.040 pardon,
00:12:55.380 no thank
00:12:56.280 you.
00:12:57.740 So I think
00:12:58.920 they need to
00:12:59.320 see some
00:12:59.820 arrests.
00:13:00.940 Literally,
00:13:01.480 I want to
00:13:01.740 see arrests
00:13:02.340 in D.C.
00:13:03.900 D.C.
00:13:04.520 jail
00:13:04.720 management,
00:13:05.320 unless there's
00:13:05.760 some part of
00:13:06.160 the story
00:13:06.480 that I'm
00:13:06.760 missing.
00:13:07.660 Again,
00:13:08.860 you know,
00:13:09.100 you have to
00:13:09.440 be careful
00:13:09.880 about the
00:13:10.280 fog of war
00:13:10.900 stories.
00:13:11.900 It could
00:13:12.540 be there's
00:13:13.320 some fact
00:13:14.180 that's different
00:13:15.380 about D.C.
00:13:17.240 Hard to
00:13:17.820 imagine,
00:13:18.480 though.
00:13:19.160 So I think
00:13:19.860 I'd like to
00:13:20.300 see some
00:13:20.640 arrests today.
00:13:21.300 Do you
00:13:24.900 ever say
00:13:25.280 to yourself,
00:13:26.040 I'm just
00:13:27.120 one person,
00:13:28.320 I can't
00:13:28.880 change anything
00:13:29.560 important?
00:13:31.700 A lot of
00:13:32.440 people say
00:13:32.800 that.
00:13:33.900 But I've
00:13:35.560 told you
00:13:36.080 other times,
00:13:37.520 one person
00:13:38.300 can really
00:13:38.780 change a lot.
00:13:40.400 Here's an
00:13:40.880 example,
00:13:41.400 one of the
00:13:41.700 best you'll
00:13:42.060 ever see.
00:13:44.080 So Mike
00:13:44.580 Benz,
00:13:45.960 thanks to
00:13:46.840 the fact
00:13:47.180 that X
00:13:47.700 is a free
00:13:48.180 speech platform,
00:13:48.980 so Elon
00:13:50.500 Musk gets
00:13:51.040 the first
00:13:52.420 credit for
00:13:53.200 making it
00:13:53.600 possible.
00:13:54.980 But if
00:13:55.360 you're not
00:13:55.680 following Mike
00:13:56.420 Benz,
00:13:57.460 where he's
00:13:57.940 outlined in
00:13:59.260 complete detail
00:14:00.200 with numerous,
00:14:01.740 just lots of
00:14:02.420 different videos
00:14:03.200 and he's
00:14:04.880 got a
00:14:05.180 subscription
00:14:06.040 site and
00:14:07.100 he's posting
00:14:07.760 all the
00:14:08.080 time.
00:14:08.900 But I
00:14:09.620 would say
00:14:10.040 he alone
00:14:10.840 has completely
00:14:12.620 mapped the
00:14:13.840 mechanism by
00:14:15.240 which Democrats
00:14:16.020 were censoring.
00:14:17.600 And the way
00:14:17.880 they were doing
00:14:18.280 it is they
00:14:18.680 funding non-government
00:14:20.880 groups in
00:14:22.080 large numbers
00:14:22.880 and those
00:14:23.960 groups would
00:14:24.580 act like they
00:14:25.200 were independent
00:14:25.820 groups and
00:14:27.360 they would get
00:14:28.060 their censorship
00:14:30.120 indirectly.
00:14:31.960 So the
00:14:32.360 government can't
00:14:33.080 censor you, 0.99
00:14:33.900 but apparently
00:14:34.820 there was
00:14:35.160 nothing stopping
00:14:35.800 them from
00:14:36.260 paying somebody
00:14:36.980 who was not
00:14:37.460 in the
00:14:37.660 government to
00:14:38.420 come censor
00:14:38.940 you or
00:14:39.480 try.
00:14:40.880 So thanks
00:14:43.460 to Trump
00:14:45.200 and his
00:14:45.760 executive order,
00:14:47.200 the executive
00:14:47.860 order banned
00:14:48.560 every agency
00:14:49.440 in the U.S.
00:14:50.060 federal government
00:14:50.740 from outsourcing
00:14:52.260 censorship work
00:14:53.580 to third-party
00:14:54.620 groups.
00:14:55.980 That, as far
00:14:57.700 as I can tell,
00:14:58.600 is 100% because
00:15:00.200 of one person,
00:15:01.760 Mike Benz.
00:15:03.260 Just hold this
00:15:04.340 in your head
00:15:04.660 for a moment.
00:15:05.100 government, you
00:15:07.480 might have just
00:15:08.100 gotten free speech
00:15:09.060 back because
00:15:10.620 this was the
00:15:11.280 entire censorship
00:15:12.480 network of
00:15:15.560 just evil that
00:15:17.340 was so
00:15:17.880 distributed, so
00:15:19.460 hard to find, so
00:15:20.620 hard to understand
00:15:21.580 that it was safe,
00:15:22.720 but not against
00:15:24.000 one of the
00:15:24.680 sharpest persons
00:15:25.960 I've ever seen in
00:15:26.760 public life.
00:15:27.480 if you haven't
00:15:29.280 watched Mike
00:15:29.900 Benz put
00:15:30.920 together the
00:15:31.580 names and
00:15:32.180 the organizations
00:15:33.000 and find who
00:15:34.220 knows who, who
00:15:35.020 hired who, who
00:15:36.300 works where, who
00:15:37.200 used to work in
00:15:37.860 the Obama
00:15:38.720 White House, who
00:15:39.500 used to work, if
00:15:40.560 you don't know
00:15:41.020 that stuff, then
00:15:42.680 just knowing that
00:15:43.360 organizations exist
00:15:44.760 doesn't help you
00:15:46.000 at all.
00:15:47.160 You have to have
00:15:48.220 his filter on
00:15:49.300 it, and then
00:15:50.120 everything comes
00:15:50.820 visible.
00:15:51.220 There's no way
00:15:53.280 that Trump would
00:15:55.120 have been
00:15:55.680 comfortable signing
00:15:56.640 that executive
00:15:57.360 order without
00:15:58.640 Mike Benz's
00:15:59.480 work.
00:16:01.200 And again, could
00:16:02.380 Mike Benz have
00:16:03.100 done what he
00:16:03.640 did if Elon
00:16:04.860 Musk had not 0.94
00:16:05.580 done what he
00:16:06.120 did?
00:16:06.420 The answer is
00:16:06.880 no.
00:16:07.760 I think that
00:16:08.620 only X allowed
00:16:10.020 him to do what
00:16:10.640 he did, Benz.
00:16:12.280 So, every time
00:16:14.300 you say to
00:16:14.720 yourself, one
00:16:15.300 person can't
00:16:15.960 change anything,
00:16:17.880 you just see so
00:16:18.940 many examples
00:16:19.600 where they are.
00:16:20.640 You've seen
00:16:22.220 Robbie Starbuck
00:16:23.320 working on
00:16:24.300 DEI.
00:16:25.040 He's actually
00:16:25.560 getting companies
00:16:26.240 to change.
00:16:27.380 You've seen
00:16:27.820 Christopher Ruffo
00:16:28.980 working on
00:16:29.780 DEI.
00:16:30.940 Huge impact.
00:16:32.440 Very specific,
00:16:34.500 measurable
00:16:34.900 results.
00:16:37.240 You've seen
00:16:37.840 Scott Pressler.
00:16:39.060 Scott Pressler
00:16:40.040 change the whole
00:16:40.680 state.
00:16:42.360 So, I would
00:16:43.680 go beyond my
00:16:46.060 point that I
00:16:47.400 think is good,
00:16:48.480 which is we do
00:16:49.700 live in an age
00:16:50.460 where one
00:16:50.900 person can
00:16:51.460 change the
00:16:51.920 world.
00:16:53.480 In the
00:16:54.220 Trump world,
00:16:55.860 it's the way
00:16:56.720 it usually
00:16:57.240 happens.
00:16:59.680 You can
00:17:00.400 almost point
00:17:01.080 to one
00:17:01.520 person for
00:17:02.520 every executive
00:17:03.420 order.
00:17:04.260 There was one
00:17:05.120 person who was
00:17:05.760 like the
00:17:06.380 person who
00:17:07.120 took the
00:17:07.440 arrows.
00:17:08.540 And trust me,
00:17:09.600 being the one
00:17:10.220 person who
00:17:10.740 pushes any
00:17:11.340 one topic,
00:17:12.760 it's not
00:17:13.940 safe.
00:17:15.100 It's not fun.
00:17:16.280 you're going
00:17:17.740 to get
00:17:18.060 slaughtered and
00:17:20.440 you're going
00:17:20.800 to get
00:17:21.060 canceled and
00:17:22.400 it's going
00:17:22.780 to hurt.
00:17:24.400 But if you
00:17:24.940 think it's
00:17:25.340 important, you
00:17:25.880 might do it
00:17:26.300 anyway.
00:17:27.220 And that's
00:17:27.840 the sort of
00:17:29.340 culture that
00:17:30.080 Trump has
00:17:30.760 somewhat
00:17:31.960 accidentally
00:17:32.680 nurtured.
00:17:34.300 It's a
00:17:34.860 culture of
00:17:35.440 people who
00:17:36.140 quite
00:17:37.640 consciously
00:17:38.220 risk their
00:17:39.800 lives and
00:17:40.560 their careers
00:17:41.360 to take
00:17:43.520 down one
00:17:44.240 part of the
00:17:44.760 evil.
00:17:46.100 And you've
00:17:46.760 seen me do
00:17:47.280 it.
00:17:47.820 I mean,
00:17:48.040 you've seen
00:17:48.380 me say,
00:17:48.900 all right,
00:17:49.180 I'm just
00:17:49.540 going to die
00:17:50.000 on this
00:17:50.320 hill,
00:17:51.220 but we're
00:17:52.880 not going
00:17:53.160 to let the
00:17:53.460 hill stand.
00:17:54.800 You know,
00:17:54.960 the hill is
00:17:55.360 going to kill
00:17:55.780 me or I'm
00:17:56.620 going to kill
00:17:57.000 the hill.
00:17:57.980 You've seen
00:17:58.500 me do it.
00:17:59.300 And you've
00:17:59.860 seen that one
00:18:00.440 person can make
00:18:01.100 a difference.
00:18:01.500 But my
00:18:02.420 God,
00:18:03.300 the Mike
00:18:04.100 Benz success,
00:18:05.380 this is one
00:18:06.240 of the most
00:18:06.740 impressive
00:18:07.800 personal
00:18:08.980 accomplishments
00:18:10.660 I've ever
00:18:11.280 seen,
00:18:12.020 but we're
00:18:13.100 going to
00:18:13.300 steal it
00:18:13.680 from him
00:18:14.400 because it's
00:18:15.460 a personal
00:18:15.960 accomplishment
00:18:16.560 of tremendous
00:18:17.440 skill and
00:18:19.040 dedication and
00:18:20.040 energy and
00:18:20.920 just doing
00:18:21.540 everything right.
00:18:22.460 And he's
00:18:22.700 got a skill
00:18:23.680 stack that's
00:18:24.340 crazy.
00:18:25.740 But this
00:18:27.840 is part of
00:18:28.840 the new
00:18:30.500 golden age
00:18:31.420 where you
00:18:32.820 could be
00:18:33.120 an individual
00:18:33.720 who says,
00:18:34.280 I'm just
00:18:34.800 going to
00:18:35.240 take this
00:18:36.380 hill.
00:18:37.580 And if I
00:18:38.420 take it,
00:18:39.480 I can hand
00:18:40.000 it off to
00:18:40.440 Trump.
00:18:41.420 So Benz
00:18:42.060 just took
00:18:42.500 the hill.
00:18:43.620 I've never
00:18:44.160 seen so much
00:18:44.800 work,
00:18:45.700 good,
00:18:46.280 productive,
00:18:46.940 on-point
00:18:47.400 work.
00:18:48.360 He took
00:18:48.800 the hill,
00:18:49.780 he handed
00:18:50.200 it to
00:18:50.580 Trump,
00:18:51.700 then Trump
00:18:52.080 just,
00:18:53.360 he just
00:18:54.060 owned it.
00:18:55.620 Incredible.

00:19:57.080 In other
00:19:57.720 news, John
00:19:58.520 Bolton got
00:19:59.760 stripped of
00:20:00.560 not only his
00:20:02.000 security clearance
00:20:02.940 for being a
00:20:05.320 prominent anti-Trumper
00:20:06.700 who used to
00:20:07.400 work for Trump,
00:20:09.100 but he's also
00:20:10.280 stripped of his
00:20:11.240 secret service
00:20:12.000 detail.
00:20:13.220 Now, the
00:20:13.440 question, this
00:20:14.240 is reported
00:20:14.980 in Breitbart
00:20:15.920 by Elizabeth
00:20:17.120 Wiebel.
00:20:19.240 Here's my
00:20:20.140 question.
00:20:20.500 how many
00:20:23.700 people in
00:20:24.320 the U.S.
00:20:24.820 government
00:20:25.140 have a
00:20:26.360 secret service
00:20:27.060 protection
00:20:27.640 that is
00:20:29.520 out of the
00:20:29.960 norm?
00:20:30.560 So, it's
00:20:30.840 normal for
00:20:31.440 presidents and
00:20:32.220 vice presidents
00:20:32.840 and ex-presidents,
00:20:34.280 but how many
00:20:35.100 people who are
00:20:35.700 not one of
00:20:36.220 those,
00:20:37.180 you know,
00:20:37.460 presidents or
00:20:38.060 ex-presidents
00:20:38.680 or ex-VPs,
00:20:40.220 how many of
00:20:40.840 them have
00:20:41.260 government-paid
00:20:43.240 secret service?
00:20:45.020 Now, apparently
00:20:45.580 Biden was the
00:20:46.840 one who approved
00:20:47.380 it and if
00:20:49.300 I read
00:20:50.080 between the
00:20:50.620 lines, I
00:20:52.180 think it
00:20:52.520 means there's
00:20:53.000 somebody like
00:20:53.560 Iran, probably 0.87
00:20:54.760 Iran, that 0.88
00:20:56.300 made threats
00:20:56.960 because, you
00:20:58.320 know, John
00:20:58.740 Bolden probably 0.95
00:20:59.360 said something
00:20:59.880 about bombing
00:21:00.520 Iran.
00:21:01.740 I didn't follow
00:21:02.560 him too closely,
00:21:03.420 but I think it's
00:21:03.840 something like
00:21:04.220 that.
00:21:06.220 However, so
00:21:07.340 I'm going to
00:21:07.960 give you my
00:21:08.380 first impression
00:21:09.180 and then my
00:21:09.880 second one.
00:21:10.440 My first
00:21:10.900 impression was
00:21:11.640 this isn't
00:21:12.680 cool.
00:21:13.920 If he has
00:21:14.680 secret service
00:21:15.600 policies that
00:21:17.320 even Biden
00:21:18.020 said, yeah,
00:21:18.560 this is worth
00:21:19.100 paying for,
00:21:20.460 you have to
00:21:21.720 take that
00:21:22.080 pretty seriously.
00:21:23.820 So let me
00:21:24.420 say that if
00:21:25.120 something happened
00:21:26.400 to Bolden and
00:21:27.660 it was because
00:21:28.560 he lost his
00:21:29.340 secret service
00:21:30.560 detail, I'm
00:21:32.640 going to call
00:21:32.960 this an error
00:21:33.600 by Trump.
00:21:35.720 There's no way
00:21:36.500 I'm going to be
00:21:36.880 happy about that.
00:21:38.480 That would be a
00:21:39.160 pure error if
00:21:40.460 something happens
00:21:41.120 to Bolden
00:21:41.600 because Trump
00:21:43.620 treated him like
00:21:44.420 a political
00:21:45.500 enemy.
00:21:46.300 Not cool.
00:21:47.820 And I want
00:21:48.580 to make sure
00:21:51.020 that I'm
00:21:51.380 establishing a
00:21:52.240 standard going
00:21:53.360 forward.
00:21:54.840 You know,
00:21:55.060 with great
00:21:55.880 power comes
00:21:56.480 great responsibility.
00:21:58.860 Trump has
00:21:59.540 acquired great
00:22:00.300 power, but
00:22:02.000 with a great
00:22:02.560 responsibility.
00:22:04.080 We as the
00:22:05.100 voters who
00:22:05.640 have supported
00:22:06.120 him are part
00:22:08.120 of that great
00:22:08.680 power structure
00:22:09.500 and we also
00:22:10.820 have great
00:22:11.260 responsibility to
00:22:12.360 control it.
00:22:13.780 Now, I
00:22:15.280 don't mean
00:22:15.560 controlling
00:22:16.360 Trump.
00:22:17.180 That's
00:22:17.480 impossible.
00:22:18.960 But I do
00:22:19.780 mean that if
00:22:21.280 any lines are
00:22:22.180 crossed that
00:22:23.120 would violate
00:22:23.660 what Trump's
00:22:24.840 supporters think
00:22:25.660 is a reasonable
00:22:26.520 human common
00:22:27.680 sense line,
00:22:29.380 we need to be
00:22:30.180 loud about that
00:22:31.100 because otherwise
00:22:32.520 you become a
00:22:33.140 Democrat.
00:22:34.300 If you just put
00:22:35.520 up with
00:22:35.880 ridiculousness and
00:22:37.820 bad performance,
00:22:38.940 I'd call you a
00:22:41.240 Democrat,
00:22:41.700 basically.
00:22:42.780 So, you
00:22:43.840 know, if the
00:22:44.380 Republicans are
00:22:45.140 the team of
00:22:46.820 meritocracy and
00:22:49.280 not the team of
00:22:50.220 pettiness and
00:22:51.440 ridiculousness,
00:22:52.700 then you've got
00:22:53.860 to act like it.
00:22:55.520 You know, as a
00:22:56.120 supporter, you've
00:22:56.960 got to make sure.
00:22:57.680 Now, the beauty
00:22:58.240 of the system, the
00:22:59.080 way Trump has it
00:22:59.880 set up, is he
00:23:01.360 reads the room so
00:23:02.600 consistently that if
00:23:05.260 he did something
00:23:05.960 that his base just
00:23:07.200 went, oh, that's
00:23:09.140 a little too far, I
00:23:10.620 think he'd adjust.
00:23:12.860 So, I think that
00:23:13.620 that is a very
00:23:14.160 productive power
00:23:15.320 balance that he
00:23:16.660 needs.
00:23:17.440 He needs it.
00:23:18.440 It's good for him.
00:23:19.360 It's good for the
00:23:19.900 country and it's good
00:23:20.560 for you.
00:23:21.440 So, it's a little
00:23:22.060 bit, you know, tough
00:23:23.580 love in both
00:23:24.240 directions and that's
00:23:26.120 a really good place
00:23:26.800 to be.
00:23:27.820 That said, so, I'm
00:23:30.840 not on board with
00:23:33.820 putting Bolton at
00:23:35.880 extra risk, if
00:23:37.200 that's what
00:23:37.560 happened.
00:23:38.840 However, here's
00:23:39.740 the counterpoint.
00:23:41.300 By taking away
00:23:42.080 his security
00:23:44.500 clearance and also
00:23:46.460 by essentially
00:23:47.380 banning him
00:23:48.260 forever from
00:23:48.940 Republican
00:23:50.360 politics, I
00:23:52.040 don't think he's
00:23:52.780 coming back.
00:23:54.580 If you were a
00:23:55.540 foreign adversary,
00:23:57.040 would you take
00:23:57.660 the chance of
00:23:59.180 putting a hit on
00:24:00.180 Bolton?
00:24:01.280 Because Trump
00:24:02.080 just took him
00:24:02.640 off the field.
00:24:03.200 If what they
00:24:05.220 wanted is his
00:24:06.040 voice would not
00:24:07.660 be influential,
00:24:08.940 well, he got
00:24:09.720 it.
00:24:10.760 So, Iran might 0.94
00:24:12.120 have been looking
00:24:12.540 at this and
00:24:13.000 say, ah, we
00:24:13.320 got to get this
00:24:13.860 guy.
00:24:14.640 He's going to be
00:24:15.120 the one who
00:24:15.500 advises they
00:24:16.200 bomb us. 0.85
00:24:17.820 But then, Trump
00:24:19.080 takes him off the
00:24:19.760 field.
00:24:21.080 What's Iran going 0.82
00:24:21.820 to do?
00:24:22.100 Kill him anyway?
00:24:23.500 Why would they
00:24:24.240 take the...
00:24:25.380 That would be an
00:24:26.140 existential risk for
00:24:27.720 Iran, right?
00:24:28.480 I mean, they
00:24:29.520 would be risking
00:24:30.080 their own lives
00:24:31.060 to remove one
00:24:33.220 mustachioed guy
00:24:34.580 that's not really
00:24:35.500 relevant to any
00:24:36.220 policy.
00:24:37.340 Why would they
00:24:38.080 do that?
00:24:38.980 You know, I
00:24:39.280 always tell you
00:24:39.780 that as crazy
00:24:41.620 as Iran seems,
00:24:42.920 at least in some
00:24:43.640 of the religious
00:24:44.540 extremism, they're
00:24:46.260 not crazy in the
00:24:50.360 regular way, right?
00:24:52.220 They're very, very
00:24:53.580 logical in the
00:24:55.500 government defense
00:24:57.440 mode, we just
00:24:58.460 don't like it.
00:24:59.500 But they're very
00:25:00.200 logical.
00:25:01.400 So it could be
00:25:02.920 that the Trump
00:25:05.360 administration said,
00:25:06.400 look, we looked
00:25:06.980 at this, we think
00:25:08.140 if we take you
00:25:08.780 off the field, I
00:25:09.920 mean, you can
00:25:10.320 imagine this would
00:25:10.920 be the inner
00:25:11.540 thoughts, not the
00:25:12.380 external thoughts.
00:25:13.640 We don't really
00:25:14.440 see a risk.
00:25:16.000 Because everybody
00:25:16.560 would ask for...
00:25:17.860 Well, not everybody.
00:25:18.940 But don't you
00:25:19.440 imagine it's not
00:25:21.260 that unusual for
00:25:22.140 people to ask for
00:25:22.920 secret service
00:25:23.640 protection if they
00:25:24.580 work in the
00:25:25.020 government.
00:25:25.920 You know, you
00:25:26.160 get a couple of
00:25:26.940 anonymous threats.
00:25:28.780 You've got a
00:25:29.260 family.
00:25:30.280 You're kind of
00:25:30.880 going to want a
00:25:31.440 secret service
00:25:32.760 protection.
00:25:33.460 And sometimes it
00:25:34.120 makes sense.
00:25:35.200 Oliver North, for
00:25:36.220 example, probably
00:25:36.940 made sense.
00:25:38.920 Or at least it
00:25:39.960 made sense that he
00:25:40.380 had some extra
00:25:40.960 protection.
00:25:42.460 So I would love
00:25:44.160 to know how many
00:25:44.880 people get this
00:25:45.580 sort of extra
00:25:46.140 protection.
00:25:46.740 I think Fauci
00:25:47.380 had it for a
00:25:48.280 while.
00:25:50.340 Meanwhile, in the
00:25:51.620 land of evil,
00:25:53.600 according to the
00:25:54.440 Gateway Pundit,
00:25:55.160 Christina Lela's
00:25:56.360 writing, that
00:25:57.700 there's a
00:25:58.780 Soros-backed
00:25:59.620 district attorney,
00:26:01.000 Larry Krasner.
00:26:02.700 He's Philadelphia,
00:26:03.760 right?
00:26:04.660 He's threatening
00:26:05.940 to figure out
00:26:06.620 some way to
00:26:07.220 cancel the
00:26:07.960 Jan 6 pardons
00:26:10.120 by Trump and
00:26:11.780 try to figure out
00:26:12.680 some state-related
00:26:14.720 because he's
00:26:15.580 state, he's not
00:26:16.200 federal, trying to
00:26:17.340 figure out some
00:26:17.920 state-related way
00:26:18.960 to put him back
00:26:19.780 in jail.
00:26:21.360 Now, what would
00:26:23.220 be the intention
00:26:24.060 behind that?
00:26:25.000 Like, why would
00:26:27.640 you put time
00:26:28.860 and effort
00:26:29.280 into reversing
00:26:30.240 pardons?
00:26:31.980 No matter what
00:26:32.920 you thought of
00:26:33.380 the January 6th
00:26:34.220 people, remember,
00:26:35.380 it's a pardon.
00:26:37.400 It's a pardon.
00:26:38.420 We don't get a
00:26:38.980 vote.
00:26:40.100 You're supposed
00:26:40.660 to not like it.
00:26:42.640 That's what the
00:26:43.340 pardons are.
00:26:44.260 It's a bunch of
00:26:44.920 stuff that you
00:26:45.500 and I don't like.
00:26:46.960 But we've decided
00:26:48.160 that our president
00:26:48.900 should have that
00:26:49.680 power, even with
00:26:51.500 the overuse.
00:26:52.800 Overuse is
00:26:53.400 guaranteed.
00:26:54.480 It's guaranteed.
00:26:55.980 And we've taken
00:26:56.680 that deal.
00:26:58.080 So it's like
00:26:58.940 reneging on the
00:26:59.820 deal if you say
00:27:01.380 there's a pardon
00:27:01.960 you don't like.
00:27:03.200 Our deal is that
00:27:04.280 we give you that
00:27:04.900 power and we know
00:27:05.820 you're going to
00:27:06.260 abuse it.
00:27:06.900 We know it.
00:27:08.220 So just shut up
00:27:09.500 with the abuse.
00:27:13.060 That's more like,
00:27:14.060 I'm not telling you
00:27:14.840 to shut up. 1.00
00:27:15.420 I'm just saying
00:27:15.860 that it doesn't
00:27:16.340 make sense for me
00:27:16.980 to talk about it.
00:27:18.540 Anyway, can you
00:27:19.500 think of any reason
00:27:20.600 that Larry Krasner
00:27:21.780 would even be
00:27:22.460 looking at putting
00:27:23.580 them back in jail
00:27:24.500 or reversing the
00:27:25.320 pardons or using
00:27:26.620 state charges to
00:27:27.600 get at them anyway?
00:27:28.620 What reason would
00:27:29.900 that be other than
00:27:30.700 evil?
00:27:32.740 I can't think of
00:27:33.640 one.
00:27:34.740 Is it to make the
00:27:35.860 country a better
00:27:36.540 place?
00:27:37.120 God, no.
00:27:38.660 Is it to help the
00:27:39.900 Democrats in the
00:27:41.060 next election?
00:27:42.740 You can't do it
00:27:43.580 that way.
00:27:45.560 But, you know,
00:27:46.360 if people do things
00:27:47.240 that are selfish,
00:27:48.140 I say to myself,
00:27:50.320 all right, that's
00:27:50.920 our system.
00:27:51.860 We all get to be
00:27:52.820 selfish, but if the
00:27:54.520 system works, you
00:27:55.680 know, that's just
00:27:56.480 democracy, it's just
00:27:57.620 capitalism.
00:27:58.820 So selfish is fine,
00:28:00.280 but he doesn't even
00:28:01.540 have a selfish
00:28:02.500 motive.
00:28:03.600 There's not even a
00:28:04.540 selfish motive,
00:28:05.420 unless he's being,
00:28:06.220 you know, paid,
00:28:07.700 which would be pretty
00:28:08.640 bad.
00:28:09.040 So it looks like evil
00:28:09.820 to me.
00:28:11.480 If there's another
00:28:12.340 explanation, glad to
00:28:14.100 hear it.
00:28:14.500 Well, Tom
00:28:16.440 Homan reports,
00:28:17.740 you know, as the
00:28:18.640 borders are, that
00:28:20.300 getting rid of that
00:28:21.080 CBP1 app has made a
00:28:24.800 big difference already,
00:28:25.880 because I guess that's
00:28:27.140 what allowed people to
00:28:28.020 say that they're just
00:28:29.600 here for asylum and
00:28:30.860 sign up without talking
00:28:32.120 to any people, I
00:28:32.840 guess.
00:28:33.940 But the number of
00:28:35.280 releases and total
00:28:37.880 apprehensions at the
00:28:39.540 border have dropped to
00:28:40.580 766.
00:28:42.000 And that's
00:28:44.300 compared to under
00:28:45.040 Biden, there were
00:28:45.660 10,000 to 12,000 per
00:28:46.960 day.
00:28:48.560 So 766 is still a lot,
00:28:51.760 but it's not 12,000 a
00:28:53.340 day.
00:28:54.840 So that's already
00:28:56.720 progress.

00:29:09.960 Scotiabank, you're
00:29:12.060 richer than you
00:29:12.600 think.
00:29:14.620 So Trump had a
00:29:16.340 press conference with
00:29:19.760 Larry Ellison and Sam
00:29:21.360 Altman and
00:29:22.860 Messi,
00:29:24.460 Messi,
00:29:25.440 Messi,
00:29:26.260 I never get his first
00:29:28.460 name right.
00:29:29.060 The SoftBank
00:29:29.880 creator,
00:29:31.660 founder.
00:29:32.320 Larry Ellison's
00:29:34.960 made the news
00:29:36.940 twice, once for
00:29:37.920 what he said at
00:29:38.560 that event, but
00:29:39.480 separately, he's
00:29:41.120 on video saying
00:29:42.200 that citizens
00:29:44.120 will be on their
00:29:44.840 best behavior
00:29:45.600 with an AI
00:29:46.420 surveillance system.
00:29:48.080 So he's talking
00:29:48.540 about the fact
00:29:49.160 that there are
00:29:49.860 cameras everywhere
00:29:50.660 and that's not
00:29:52.620 going to stop.
00:29:54.500 But he thinks
00:29:55.380 that the cameras
00:29:56.000 will be monitored
00:29:56.980 by AI and
00:29:58.940 then the AI
00:29:59.580 will spot any
00:30:00.640 problems and
00:30:01.760 alert a human.
00:30:03.560 Now, if you're
00:30:05.480 normal, you're
00:30:06.320 saying to
00:30:06.700 yourself, what?
00:30:08.340 We don't want
00:30:09.400 no big brother
00:30:11.160 watching everything
00:30:12.100 we do and
00:30:13.060 judging us.
00:30:13.980 And I agree,
00:30:15.300 you don't want
00:30:15.940 big brother
00:30:16.360 watching everything
00:30:17.000 you do and
00:30:17.780 judging you.
00:30:19.400 So I'm on
00:30:20.480 board.
00:30:21.520 But here's my
00:30:22.400 second statement
00:30:23.800 about it.
00:30:24.400 You can't, you
00:30:25.380 can't change it.
00:30:27.200 There's just
00:30:27.840 nothing you can do
00:30:28.640 to change this
00:30:29.340 trend.
00:30:29.700 I wish there
00:30:30.840 were, you
00:30:31.960 know, like I'm
00:30:33.120 the one who
00:30:33.500 says that one
00:30:34.100 person can change
00:30:34.940 the world.
00:30:35.800 I wouldn't even
00:30:36.960 take a run at
00:30:37.660 this because when
00:30:39.100 the technology can
00:30:40.360 do something, it
00:30:41.500 doesn't.
00:30:43.100 You just can't
00:30:44.320 put the toothpaste
00:30:45.000 back in the tube.
00:30:46.140 The technology is
00:30:47.200 out there.
00:30:48.400 If you have AI
00:30:49.020 and you have
00:30:50.600 video, nobody
00:30:52.420 can stop you from
00:30:53.400 using the AI on
00:30:54.620 the video to
00:30:56.480 process it.
00:30:57.460 And nobody
00:30:58.480 can stop the
00:30:59.160 AI from
00:30:59.720 contacting
00:31:00.440 authorities if
00:31:01.360 it thinks it
00:31:01.880 sees a crime.
00:31:03.280 So we could
00:31:04.460 all be mad at
00:31:05.260 it.
00:31:05.500 We could hate
00:31:06.040 it.
00:31:07.720 But it's going
00:31:08.320 to happen.
00:31:09.640 I don't see
00:31:10.340 any way to
00:31:10.720 stop it,
00:31:11.120 really.
00:31:13.180 So I'm not
00:31:13.860 forward or
00:31:14.300 against it.
00:31:14.860 It's just,
00:31:15.340 it's like,
00:31:16.120 it's like rain.
00:31:18.340 You know, you
00:31:18.920 can be against
00:31:19.620 rain, but it's
00:31:20.300 still going to
00:31:20.680 rain.
00:31:20.920 I will just
00:31:23.560 tell you that
00:31:24.100 in the 90s, I
00:31:25.020 wrote a book
00:31:25.340 called The
00:31:25.660 Dilber of 0.84
00:31:26.100 Future with
00:31:27.280 a bunch of
00:31:27.800 predictions of
00:31:28.520 the future.
00:31:29.020 One of my
00:31:29.380 predictions was
00:31:30.180 that, remember
00:31:31.980 this is in the
00:31:32.660 90s, but one
00:31:33.760 of my predictions
00:31:34.280 was that the
00:31:35.240 cost of video
00:31:36.860 security cameras
00:31:37.840 would drop, and
00:31:39.900 it would drop to
00:31:40.520 the point where
00:31:41.300 there would be
00:31:41.680 basically cameras
00:31:42.640 in every public
00:31:43.320 place, but also
00:31:44.620 every private
00:31:45.280 space.
00:31:45.900 Now, that's
00:31:49.000 almost true,
00:31:50.060 because your
00:31:50.720 phone has a
00:31:51.300 camera, and if
00:31:51.960 somebody really
00:31:52.500 wanted to, they
00:31:53.120 could turn it
00:31:53.660 on, you know,
00:31:54.600 spies could do
00:31:55.360 it.
00:31:57.760 And there are a
00:31:59.280 lot of digital
00:31:59.840 devices, such as
00:32:01.800 your Amazon
00:32:02.600 digital device,
00:32:03.780 that could, in
00:32:05.100 theory, listen
00:32:05.580 to you.
00:32:05.980 Your phone could,
00:32:06.800 in theory, listen
00:32:07.400 to you, if law
00:32:08.820 enforcement or
00:32:09.400 somebody had a
00:32:10.320 court order to
00:32:11.840 do that, I
00:32:12.340 suppose.
00:32:13.200 So we are at a
00:32:14.260 point where both
00:32:15.560 your public and
00:32:16.840 your private
00:32:17.420 interactions are
00:32:18.400 largely monitored by
00:32:20.080 digital devices, only
00:32:22.380 if the court has a
00:32:23.320 reason.
00:32:25.420 And if somebody
00:32:26.720 accuses you of
00:32:27.640 something, the
00:32:29.360 court has access to
00:32:30.440 every digital
00:32:31.180 everything.
00:32:32.400 There's no limit,
00:32:33.440 right?
00:32:33.920 If they could find
00:32:35.000 something by telling
00:32:36.000 Amazon, you've got to
00:32:36.860 give us access, they
00:32:39.340 would do it, because
00:32:40.800 that's how it works.
00:32:42.060 So I think we're
00:32:43.760 going to get close.
00:32:45.560 Whether you like it
00:32:46.520 or not, to every
00:32:48.380 crime being solved.
00:32:50.640 Because it will just
00:32:51.440 be impossible.
00:32:52.760 Everything will be
00:32:53.420 digital, so you can
00:32:54.380 track every action
00:32:55.380 back.
00:32:56.060 We'll know where
00:32:56.820 anybody is, because
00:32:57.740 their phone is with
00:32:58.520 them.
00:32:59.060 We'll know what they
00:32:59.900 said and what it
00:33:00.880 looked like, for
00:33:02.080 almost everything.
00:33:03.920 You know?
00:33:04.640 So, none of this is
00:33:07.080 good.
00:33:09.220 It's probably
00:33:09.900 inevitable, though.
00:33:11.400 That's the bad news.
00:33:12.700 If you can stop it, go
00:33:13.820 ahead.
00:33:15.180 I'm all with you.
00:33:16.260 If you can figure out
00:33:17.220 how to stop it.
00:33:18.760 But you can't really
00:33:20.320 stop technology.
00:33:22.080 It's not really a thing
00:33:23.260 in America.
00:33:25.960 Well, I continue to
00:33:27.100 watch the Republicans,
00:33:29.680 and Trump in particular,
00:33:30.740 focus on policy,
00:33:31.880 policy, policy.
00:33:32.980 How much did Trump
00:33:34.100 focus on policy?
00:33:36.040 200 executive orders.
00:33:37.300 I don't know if you
00:33:38.380 heard.
00:33:39.160 200.
00:33:40.180 Every one of the 200
00:33:41.500 executive orders, I
00:33:42.680 think, you would call
00:33:44.540 policy.
00:33:45.800 Am I wrong?
00:33:47.380 Policy times 200?
00:33:49.360 So, Trump gave you
00:33:51.100 policy times 200 on
00:33:53.080 day one.
00:33:55.580 Policy times 200 on
00:33:59.040 day one.
00:34:00.020 And that's just the
00:34:00.700 stuff we know about.
00:34:02.100 Think about all the
00:34:02.960 orders he gave that
00:34:03.940 weren't executive
00:34:04.680 orders.
00:34:05.160 got a lot of
00:34:07.160 policy done.
00:34:09.080 Let's check in with
00:34:10.020 the Democrats, whose
00:34:10.960 entire party tent has
00:34:13.400 collapsed, and they're
00:34:14.560 in ruin and wandering
00:34:16.580 around with, like,
00:34:18.160 chickens without their
00:34:19.080 heads, as they like to
00:34:20.080 say, as people like to
00:34:21.860 say.
00:34:22.540 So, here are the things
00:34:23.400 they're talking about.
00:34:24.720 They're mad about the
00:34:25.600 pardons for 76ers.
00:34:27.720 Okay, that's not a
00:34:28.720 policy question, because
00:34:31.020 presidents can pardon.
00:34:33.480 They talk about
00:34:34.380 Hegseth's personal
00:34:35.440 life.
00:34:36.680 Okay, not really the
00:34:38.220 most important thing
00:34:39.080 going, because it
00:34:39.980 doesn't even have,
00:34:40.840 they're not even
00:34:41.440 confirmed allegations.
00:34:43.000 They talk about Elon
00:34:44.460 Musk raising his arm
00:34:46.520 above his waist.
00:34:48.460 That was almost the
00:34:49.420 headline news, and all
00:34:50.580 the Democrat news
00:34:52.360 stations wanted to talk
00:34:54.520 about Elon Musk's
00:34:55.720 arm.
00:34:57.160 Well, I don't know, it
00:34:58.500 looks like a Roman 1.00
00:34:59.680 salute, kind of a
00:35:01.060 dictator-ish.
00:35:01.780 Well, no, it's sort
00:35:02.920 of Heil Hitler, but 0.74
00:35:04.740 touching the heart.
00:35:06.140 Wait a minute.
00:35:07.080 I'll find a video of
00:35:08.620 one of the Proud
00:35:09.260 Boys doing that, and
00:35:10.260 then we can prove that
00:35:11.700 it's really racism, and
00:35:13.140 it's just stupid.
00:35:14.100 It's all just stupid, and
00:35:15.460 we mock it, and it's
00:35:17.140 funny.
00:35:17.760 But it's certainly not
00:35:18.540 policy.
00:35:19.760 They talk about Trump's
00:35:20.820 evil and his wrongness.
00:35:22.240 That's actually a quote
00:35:23.160 from MSNBC.
00:35:24.900 I forget the guy who's
00:35:27.020 got, who looks like a,
00:35:28.140 what do you call it,
00:35:31.280 dandelion?
00:35:32.220 You know when a
00:35:32.660 dandelion goes old, and
00:35:36.580 it's just got this big
00:35:37.420 poof of, you know,
00:35:39.660 white dandelion stuff on
00:35:41.780 the top?
00:35:43.000 So it's the guy who
00:35:43.840 looks like the dandelion.
00:35:45.400 He's like, oh, Trump's
00:35:47.100 evil and his wrongness.
00:35:48.240 Do you have any examples
00:35:49.360 of his evil and his
00:35:50.400 wrongness?
00:35:51.100 Then they complain about
00:35:52.660 crowd size, and maybe
00:35:53.940 that's the reason that
00:35:54.720 Trump moved in.
00:35:55.420 Yeah, crowd size.
00:35:56.240 Let's talk about that.
00:35:57.020 Let's talk about
00:35:57.880 Melania's hat.
00:35:59.660 Yeah, the hat.
00:36:00.800 I think the hat
00:36:01.700 indicated some evil.
00:36:04.580 The hat.
00:36:06.160 Oh, this is way more
00:36:07.200 important than Elon's
00:36:08.380 arm.
00:36:09.840 So Elon's arm and
00:36:11.720 Melania's hat were the 0.96
00:36:14.100 two top topics of the
00:36:17.040 Democrats.
00:36:19.140 Again, day one, Trump,
00:36:23.740 policy times 200.
00:36:27.020 200 policy things.
00:36:31.060 They also worried about
00:36:32.360 everything is racist and
00:36:33.620 Trump's being a dictator
00:36:35.420 on day one.
00:36:38.140 And they never learn.
00:36:42.760 I think the thing that
00:36:44.480 would have to sting the
00:36:46.960 most if you're a Democrat
00:36:48.380 and you're trying to
00:36:49.160 reassemble and you're
00:36:50.180 trying to figure it out
00:36:51.080 is you can't learn.
00:36:55.300 It's one thing to be
00:36:56.440 wrong.
00:36:58.160 It's really a deeper
00:36:59.260 problem if you don't
00:37:00.260 learn from it.
00:37:02.060 Would you agree that
00:37:03.260 Trump seems to have
00:37:04.140 made adjustments that
00:37:05.640 made his current run a
00:37:08.760 much cleaner affair than
00:37:10.040 the first one?
00:37:11.120 I would say yes.
00:37:12.980 I would say even when
00:37:14.440 asked, he said, yeah,
00:37:15.200 maybe we've all changed.
00:37:16.260 But the Democrats don't
00:37:19.140 seem to be able to
00:37:20.300 debate policy at all.
00:37:23.400 They just say you're
00:37:24.240 mean.
00:37:27.200 Amazing.
00:37:28.920 There's a report, the
00:37:30.560 Gateway Pundit, Christina
00:37:32.120 Laila, is reporting about
00:37:33.460 Jake Sullivan of the
00:37:35.600 Biden administration.
00:37:37.920 Allegedly, I'm going to put
00:37:39.100 allegedly on this one,
00:37:40.420 because if I'm not in a
00:37:41.560 room, I'm not sure who
00:37:42.600 said anything to anybody.
00:37:43.720 But allegedly, Jake
00:37:45.860 Sullivan told the NSC
00:37:47.720 staffers the holdovers
00:37:49.700 from the people who
00:37:51.180 were hired by our
00:37:52.120 previous administration,
00:37:53.340 but keep their jobs.
00:37:55.640 If it's lower level
00:37:56.620 jobs, they don't have to
00:37:57.980 fire them all.
00:37:59.580 But he's asking them to
00:38:01.100 spy on and sabotage
00:38:03.380 Trump.
00:38:04.380 Now, again, I wasn't in
00:38:06.660 the room when any of this
00:38:07.700 allegedly happened.
00:38:08.920 So I don't know if that's
00:38:11.020 an accurate characterization
00:38:12.340 of what he said.
00:38:13.720 So I'm going to put a fog
00:38:15.300 of war warning on this
00:38:16.540 one.
00:38:16.960 This could turn out to be
00:38:18.340 not exactly what he said.
00:38:21.420 But there are reports.
00:38:22.900 So investigative reporter
00:38:24.400 Paul Sperry, I think, is
00:38:26.540 the one who's got the
00:38:28.100 scoop on this.
00:38:30.100 And he says he wants,
00:38:32.420 Jake Sullivan wants the
00:38:33.800 underlings to basically
00:38:36.960 thwart him like some
00:38:39.180 underlings did on the
00:38:40.260 first term.
00:38:40.660 All right.
00:38:43.340 So does that sound right?
00:38:46.260 Does that sound true to
00:38:47.660 you that the Biden
00:38:49.380 administration literally
00:38:50.640 is asking people to
00:38:52.200 sabotage Trump from
00:38:53.240 within?
00:38:55.000 It does.
00:38:56.840 Do you know why it
00:38:57.500 sounds real to me?
00:38:59.780 Because it's not policy.
00:39:01.220 If you told me that Jake
00:39:05.260 Sullivan had some good
00:39:06.300 policy ideas and he
00:39:07.540 shared it with the
00:39:08.180 staff, I would have
00:39:09.420 said, I don't think so.
00:39:11.180 Come on.
00:39:12.680 Good try.
00:39:14.200 Good try.
00:39:15.440 Yeah.
00:39:15.920 He's talking about
00:39:16.820 policy.
00:39:18.200 But you tell me that
00:39:19.140 that one of the Biden
00:39:20.460 administration did
00:39:21.900 something destructive,
00:39:23.460 anti-American,
00:39:24.980 treasonous, and
00:39:25.880 weaselly, I would say
00:39:27.640 probably.
00:39:28.220 I mean, not 100%.
00:39:30.900 You know, I wasn't
00:39:32.660 there.
00:39:33.540 So anonymous reports,
00:39:35.660 anonymous reports are
00:39:36.700 not terribly reliable.
00:39:39.540 But it's certainly within
00:39:41.020 the realm of things I
00:39:42.140 could believe.
00:39:44.080 Not policy, though.
00:39:47.060 Well, Trump and DEI is
00:39:49.400 going just the way we
00:39:50.500 want.
00:39:50.880 So Trump has put out
00:39:53.700 an order that you
00:39:54.760 better not be hiding
00:39:55.660 the DEI in other
00:39:57.800 functions.
00:39:58.820 And he gave the
00:40:00.640 warning to
00:40:02.820 universities and
00:40:04.160 colleges as well as
00:40:05.300 the government.
00:40:06.160 You know, don't just
00:40:06.780 change the name and
00:40:07.640 keep doing what you're
00:40:08.360 doing.
00:40:09.200 DEI is gone.
00:40:12.100 But how much
00:40:16.260 trouble would you get
00:40:17.140 into?
00:40:17.560 I mean, you're saying
00:40:18.080 that if you try to hide
00:40:19.040 it and you keep
00:40:19.680 doing it, you're
00:40:20.360 going to pay a
00:40:21.140 price.
00:40:22.000 Getting fired, I
00:40:22.740 suppose, would be
00:40:23.800 the price.
00:40:25.320 But at the same
00:40:26.360 time, he did an
00:40:27.900 order getting rid
00:40:29.420 of affirmative
00:40:30.040 action as the
00:40:32.720 rule of the, I
00:40:34.620 guess, the law of
00:40:35.180 the land.
00:40:36.040 Affirmative action.
00:40:37.560 So affirmative
00:40:38.020 action, of course, is
00:40:38.960 the precursor to
00:40:39.840 DEI, but it was
00:40:41.080 the less harmful
00:40:41.900 version.
00:40:43.580 Affirmative action is
00:40:44.620 what cost me my
00:40:45.660 job in banking.
00:40:47.480 It's what cost me
00:40:49.100 my job in
00:40:50.240 telecommunications.
00:40:52.040 It's what cost me
00:40:53.220 my time slot for
00:40:54.980 the Dilbert TV
00:40:55.780 show.
00:40:57.280 And it hasn't
00:41:00.460 been a good friend
00:41:01.140 to me.
00:41:02.540 So since my
00:41:04.380 20s, I've been
00:41:07.440 victimized by
00:41:08.260 affirmative action.
00:41:09.720 And that's not a
00:41:10.840 whine.
00:41:11.320 That's just an
00:41:12.080 objective statement
00:41:13.000 and at least 80
00:41:14.600 million white men
00:41:16.400 will tell you the
00:41:16.960 same thing.
00:41:17.520 We all have the
00:41:18.040 same story, by
00:41:18.980 the way.
00:41:19.280 All of us have
00:41:19.840 the same story.
00:41:20.660 There's probably
00:41:21.020 80 million of us.
00:41:22.120 If you say to
00:41:22.980 me, and people
00:41:23.920 have, oh, Scott,
00:41:25.440 prove it.
00:41:26.580 You know, let me
00:41:27.040 show, give me some
00:41:27.900 evidence that you
00:41:28.920 really were, you
00:41:30.200 know, hurt by
00:41:30.900 affirmative action.
00:41:33.080 I don't have to.
00:41:34.420 You could literally
00:41:35.260 walk out on the
00:41:36.140 street.
00:41:36.960 If you see a
00:41:38.380 white man walking
00:41:39.240 toward you who's
00:41:40.040 50 years older or
00:41:41.800 older, and he's
00:41:42.840 white, tap him on
00:41:44.400 the shoulder and
00:41:44.940 say, I got this
00:41:45.560 question for you.
00:41:46.220 Do you know
00:41:47.320 anybody or have
00:41:48.440 you ever been
00:41:48.880 affected by
00:41:49.620 affirmative action?
00:41:51.480 The answer is
00:41:52.060 going to be yes.
00:41:53.500 Anybody you pick.
00:41:54.860 Literally anybody.
00:41:56.400 So, you know, I
00:41:57.220 don't need to prove
00:41:57.780 anything to you.
00:41:59.140 Just walk in the
00:42:00.160 street, find anybody
00:42:01.720 over 50 who's
00:42:02.620 white.
00:42:03.020 They all have the
00:42:03.860 same story.
00:42:05.000 The fact that you
00:42:05.980 didn't know the
00:42:06.600 story, well, that's
00:42:07.720 on you.
00:42:08.820 That's on you.
00:42:09.640 Because the reason
00:42:10.760 they don't tell
00:42:11.280 the story is
00:42:11.840 because it's
00:42:12.200 dangerous.
00:42:13.000 Same reason I
00:42:13.720 didn't do it
00:42:14.180 until I wasn't
00:42:14.740 worried about
00:42:15.160 getting canceled.
00:42:16.220 Then I got
00:42:16.660 canceled.
00:42:17.740 So, once you
00:42:18.400 stop worrying
00:42:18.900 about getting
00:42:19.340 canceled, you're
00:42:20.000 probably going to
00:42:20.480 get canceled.
00:42:22.240 So, anyway, I
00:42:25.240 am super happy
00:42:26.340 at the Trump
00:42:27.300 administration for
00:42:28.500 getting rid of
00:42:29.620 racial discrimination.
00:42:30.800 And, yeah, this
00:42:37.900 is amazing.
00:42:38.620 Christopher Ruffo
00:42:39.360 is reporting on
00:42:41.080 the Trump getting
00:42:42.100 rid of Lyndon
00:42:44.960 Johnson's affirmative
00:42:46.460 action.
00:42:48.000 Now, I don't know
00:42:48.960 how many of these
00:42:49.740 Trump EOs are
00:42:51.040 going to hold up
00:42:51.720 because I just
00:42:52.580 don't know that
00:42:53.240 these are things
00:42:53.880 that always work
00:42:55.880 as an executive
00:42:56.580 order, but we'll
00:42:57.240 find out.
00:42:58.540 Meanwhile, over at
00:42:59.580 Cisco, the
00:43:00.780 CEO of Cisco
00:43:01.780 says, he said,
00:43:05.240 quote, but the
00:43:06.380 core reasons that
00:43:07.380 you have a diverse
00:43:08.260 workforce are still
00:43:10.220 there from a
00:43:10.980 business perspective.
00:43:12.520 So, he was
00:43:13.420 trying to defend
00:43:14.220 the use of
00:43:15.700 DEI, and that
00:43:17.180 was his
00:43:17.540 defense.
00:43:18.860 Let me read it
00:43:19.320 again so you can
00:43:20.440 see the reasoning.
00:43:22.200 The core reasons
00:43:23.460 that you have a
00:43:24.120 diverse workforce
00:43:24.960 are still there
00:43:26.000 from a business
00:43:26.820 perspective.
00:43:28.560 Now, I agree
00:43:30.400 with the general
00:43:32.120 statement that
00:43:33.300 diversity could
00:43:34.360 add value to
00:43:35.540 your company.
00:43:36.800 You can do it a
00:43:37.640 number of ways.
00:43:38.540 One way would be
00:43:39.460 everybody would
00:43:40.160 feel like, you
00:43:41.260 know, they're
00:43:41.920 closer to what the
00:43:42.860 public is.
00:43:44.060 You'd always have
00:43:44.700 somebody who
00:43:45.220 understands that
00:43:46.000 segment of the
00:43:46.640 public.
00:43:47.620 Maybe you get a
00:43:48.220 variety of ideas,
00:43:49.000 ideas, but none
00:43:51.200 of it works unless
00:43:52.840 you all got there
00:43:53.560 by merit.
00:43:55.700 If you've got
00:43:56.860 diversity based on,
00:43:58.560 you know, we
00:43:58.820 hired you because
00:43:59.560 you're diverse,
00:44:00.580 that's not a
00:44:01.720 strength.
00:44:02.480 That's all
00:44:03.100 negative.
00:44:04.300 That's just all
00:44:05.100 negative.
00:44:06.020 So, if a CEO
00:44:07.040 says the core
00:44:09.240 reason for a
00:44:09.940 diverse workforce
00:44:10.720 are still there
00:44:11.520 from a business
00:44:12.260 perspective, I think
00:44:13.760 you need to list
00:44:14.500 the reasons.
00:44:15.060 It's an argument
00:44:17.140 without reasons.
00:44:18.680 And they never
00:44:19.300 give the reasons,
00:44:20.100 do they?
00:44:20.600 Have you noticed
00:44:21.080 that?
00:44:21.800 People will say
00:44:22.500 diversity is our
00:44:23.360 strength.
00:44:25.020 And then before
00:44:26.220 they run away,
00:44:26.980 you're like,
00:44:27.260 well, strength in
00:44:28.640 what way?
00:44:29.680 I can think of
00:44:30.500 some arguments on
00:44:31.880 my own, but what
00:44:32.860 are you thinking?
00:44:33.960 Like, what is the
00:44:34.580 strength?
00:44:35.720 And they're like,
00:44:36.320 do, do, do, do,
00:44:36.860 do, run away.
00:44:38.420 Nobody can answer
00:44:39.260 that question.
00:44:40.460 I mean, I'm
00:44:41.600 opposed to DEI,
00:44:43.620 and I think I have
00:44:44.740 the best argument
00:44:45.660 for the power
00:44:46.900 of diversity.
00:44:48.420 Again, gives you
00:44:49.840 a little more
00:44:50.240 insight into the
00:44:51.040 market.
00:44:52.060 It only works,
00:44:53.120 though, if all
00:44:54.480 the diversity got
00:44:55.420 there as a
00:44:56.520 secondary accidental
00:44:57.860 effect of just
00:44:59.080 hiring good people.
00:45:00.680 If you have good
00:45:01.380 people, diversity
00:45:02.320 could be an
00:45:04.680 asset.
00:45:05.920 That's a strong
00:45:06.760 argument.
00:45:07.500 If they didn't
00:45:08.420 get there by
00:45:09.060 merit, it's just
00:45:10.840 all bad.
00:45:12.180 That's my take.
00:45:13.320 So, I need the
00:45:14.000 CEO to explain
00:45:14.860 to me, you
00:45:16.740 know, what do
00:45:17.360 you think is
00:45:17.880 the advantage?
00:45:20.320 Again, he
00:45:22.100 could have an
00:45:22.660 argument, but I
00:45:23.320 think it's
00:45:23.620 incumbent upon
00:45:24.440 him to give
00:45:25.020 it to us.
00:45:27.340 Meanwhile,
00:45:27.960 India says
00:45:29.720 it'll take
00:45:30.100 back 18,000
00:45:31.480 illegal immigrants,
00:45:34.300 let's call them,
00:45:34.940 under the Trump
00:45:35.760 era.
00:45:36.980 The Daily
00:45:37.300 Wire is
00:45:37.720 reporting on
00:45:38.260 this.
00:45:38.440 Now, the
00:45:40.300 actual number
00:45:41.120 of Indian
00:45:43.320 born migrants
00:45:45.280 or immigrants 0.95
00:45:45.880 or illegals,
00:45:47.100 whatever the
00:45:47.600 term is going
00:45:48.380 to be lately,
00:45:49.680 is probably a
00:45:50.860 lot more than
00:45:51.260 18,000.
00:45:52.840 But here's
00:45:54.020 what I love
00:45:54.460 about this.
00:45:55.860 The U.S.
00:45:56.560 asked them to
00:45:57.180 take back 18,000
00:45:58.380 and India
00:45:59.700 says,
00:46:00.700 yes,
00:46:02.380 that's how
00:46:03.420 that should
00:46:03.800 work.
00:46:04.180 that's
00:46:06.080 exactly how
00:46:06.700 that should
00:46:07.060 work.
00:46:08.200 You know,
00:46:09.120 I'm so
00:46:10.000 pro-India
00:46:10.820 that I know
00:46:11.880 some of you
00:46:12.340 don't like it.
00:46:13.620 I'm very
00:46:14.040 pro-India
00:46:14.660 as an ally
00:46:16.520 and, you
00:46:17.940 know, just
00:46:18.200 as a group
00:46:19.360 of people
00:46:19.800 who are
00:46:20.980 unusually
00:46:21.760 beneficial to
00:46:23.100 the United
00:46:23.440 States.
00:46:25.060 Very pro-India.
00:46:26.640 But when India 0.87
00:46:27.180 just does
00:46:27.760 little smart
00:46:28.600 things like,
00:46:30.000 oh, take
00:46:30.360 back 18,000
00:46:31.400 immigrants,
00:46:32.240 well, we
00:46:32.480 don't love
00:46:32.860 it, but
00:46:33.220 we'd like
00:46:34.300 to have a
00:46:34.640 good relationship
00:46:35.220 with the
00:46:35.560 United States.
00:46:36.500 We help
00:46:37.200 you, you
00:46:37.700 help us.
00:46:38.740 That's what
00:46:39.080 allies do.
00:46:39.860 Sure, we'll
00:46:40.480 take back
00:46:40.840 the 18,000.
00:46:41.960 I love
00:46:42.360 that.
00:46:43.180 I just
00:46:43.460 love that.
00:46:44.260 Without the
00:46:44.980 pushback and
00:46:45.860 the bullshit
00:46:46.520 and the, you
00:46:48.020 know, trying
00:46:48.420 to score a
00:46:49.180 point.
00:46:50.060 How about
00:46:50.360 just yes
00:46:50.980 sometimes?
00:46:52.480 Just yes
00:46:53.040 sometimes.
00:46:54.380 Like, my
00:46:55.100 respect for
00:46:55.820 India just 0.73
00:46:56.340 goes, whoop,
00:46:57.620 you're right
00:46:58.060 up.
00:46:58.620 It's like,
00:46:58.960 okay, treating
00:47:00.280 us like
00:47:01.200 peers, which
00:47:03.000 you should.
00:47:07.340 Trump has
00:47:08.160 threatened the
00:47:09.560 BRICS 0.99
00:47:10.180 nations, so
00:47:11.760 if you're not
00:47:12.840 up to date on
00:47:13.560 what the
00:47:13.920 BRICS is,
00:47:15.020 that's the,
00:47:16.160 I don't know
00:47:17.140 if it's a
00:47:17.500 loose association
00:47:18.380 or a strong
00:47:19.040 association that
00:47:20.000 has Brazil,
00:47:21.180 Russia, India,
00:47:21.900 China, South
00:47:22.800 Africa, and
00:47:25.240 includes Iran
00:47:26.000 and Saudi
00:47:26.460 Arabia and
00:47:27.280 UAE and
00:47:28.340 Argentina and
00:47:29.280 Egypt and
00:47:29.780 Ethiopia.
00:47:30.140 So what
00:47:31.260 that group
00:47:32.180 is trying
00:47:32.660 to do is
00:47:34.240 get away
00:47:34.800 from the
00:47:35.280 dollar as
00:47:36.100 their main
00:47:36.600 currency and
00:47:37.580 have some
00:47:37.980 kind of currency
00:47:39.200 of their own,
00:47:39.920 which would be
00:47:40.780 bad for the
00:47:41.480 dollar and
00:47:42.020 bad for the
00:47:42.480 United States
00:47:43.100 in ways that
00:47:44.940 would take
00:47:45.420 longer to
00:47:45.900 explain.
00:47:47.420 But I think
00:47:48.160 we're all on
00:47:48.440 the same page,
00:47:49.040 right?
00:47:50.240 I think
00:47:51.340 everybody agrees
00:47:52.280 that having
00:47:54.020 other countries
00:47:54.740 being, I
00:47:56.840 hate to say
00:47:57.220 forced, but
00:47:58.200 that's what
00:47:58.540 it is.
00:47:59.220 Forced to
00:47:59.780 use the
00:48:00.100 U.S.
00:48:00.420 dollar gives
00:48:01.440 us some
00:48:02.060 advantages as
00:48:02.960 a country.
00:48:04.220 And they're
00:48:04.760 big ones.
00:48:05.860 So Trump
00:48:06.340 basically just
00:48:07.060 threatened them
00:48:07.580 and said
00:48:08.700 they're going
00:48:08.980 to get a
00:48:09.280 100% tariff
00:48:10.280 if they try
00:48:11.020 to replace
00:48:11.460 the U.S.
00:48:11.960 dollar.
00:48:13.180 Now,
00:48:15.260 should we
00:48:17.640 be threatening
00:48:19.020 other countries
00:48:20.060 in their own
00:48:20.680 decisions about
00:48:21.540 what kind of
00:48:22.740 money they use?
00:48:24.180 It's pretty
00:48:24.940 gutsy.
00:48:26.240 On the other
00:48:26.700 hand,
00:48:27.060 tariffs are
00:48:29.120 always part
00:48:29.720 of normal
00:48:30.240 business and
00:48:31.000 tariffs are
00:48:31.840 part of
00:48:32.160 normal
00:48:32.500 negotiations.
00:48:33.700 And Trump
00:48:34.860 is saying
00:48:35.300 exactly what
00:48:36.060 he wants
00:48:36.540 and how
00:48:37.440 he wants
00:48:37.860 it and
00:48:38.060 when he
00:48:38.340 wants it,
00:48:38.820 like right
00:48:39.280 now,
00:48:40.220 stop doing
00:48:40.720 this.
00:48:41.420 And he
00:48:42.260 put a
00:48:42.860 price on
00:48:43.280 it.
00:48:44.080 The price
00:48:44.660 is 100%
00:48:45.320 tariff.
00:48:46.060 Or at
00:48:46.540 least they
00:48:46.880 think that's
00:48:47.380 the risk.
00:48:48.980 So I
00:48:50.820 kind of love
00:48:51.360 this because
00:48:52.740 I see it
00:48:53.240 not so much
00:48:54.640 as his
00:48:55.240 legal right
00:48:56.920 to do
00:48:57.260 anything like
00:48:58.080 this,
00:48:58.520 but it's
00:48:59.140 not illegal
00:48:59.980 to say we
00:49:01.360 won't have
00:49:01.880 it and
00:49:02.280 there will
00:49:02.560 be a
00:49:02.800 price to
00:49:03.200 pay.
00:49:04.020 So he's
00:49:04.560 definitely
00:49:04.780 using the
00:49:05.500 power of
00:49:06.660 the U.S.
00:49:07.280 and he's
00:49:07.960 wielding it
00:49:08.480 in a very
00:49:08.920 clean way.
00:49:10.500 It's very
00:49:10.860 clean.
00:49:12.060 So I
00:49:13.520 could find
00:49:13.940 100 ways
00:49:14.600 to dislike
00:49:15.360 this if
00:49:17.540 it were
00:49:17.820 unclear.
00:49:18.260 But there's
00:49:19.880 something about
00:49:20.300 the clarity
00:49:20.920 of it and
00:49:22.160 how obviously
00:49:23.360 pro-American
00:49:24.460 it is that
00:49:25.840 just makes
00:49:26.260 me say,
00:49:26.680 you know,
00:49:27.700 it feels
00:49:28.980 like an
00:49:29.300 overreach.
00:49:31.120 We shouldn't
00:49:31.460 be getting
00:49:31.820 in their
00:49:32.140 business in
00:49:32.760 that exact
00:49:33.300 way.
00:49:34.360 But we
00:49:35.540 can.
00:49:36.800 And if we
00:49:37.220 do it
00:49:37.520 clearly and
00:49:39.080 it helps
00:49:39.420 the United
00:49:39.740 States stay
00:49:40.380 strong,
00:49:41.200 you can
00:49:41.740 make an
00:49:42.080 argument that
00:49:42.560 everybody's
00:49:43.020 better off.
00:49:43.840 Well,
00:49:44.320 not everybody.
00:49:46.760 But as
00:49:47.380 strong America
00:49:48.000 isn't the
00:49:48.440 worst thing
00:49:48.820 for the
00:49:49.120 world.
00:49:49.460 So it's
00:49:49.700 not like
00:49:50.260 one direction
00:49:52.240 is evil.
00:49:55.420 Well,
00:49:55.920 Trump is
00:49:56.860 also threatened
00:49:57.920 to increase
00:49:58.920 Canada's
00:49:59.580 tariffs by
00:50:00.140 25%.
00:50:01.200 We assume
00:50:02.740 that that's
00:50:03.180 a negotiating
00:50:04.080 first position.
00:50:06.120 Doesn't mean
00:50:06.740 it will be
00:50:08.040 the permanent
00:50:08.460 situation.
00:50:09.600 So I don't
00:50:10.160 know exactly
00:50:10.720 what he wants,
00:50:11.620 but I know
00:50:11.940 he wants
00:50:12.280 better deals
00:50:14.120 and he wants
00:50:14.540 the border
00:50:14.980 to be closed
00:50:16.160 and he may
00:50:16.840 want more
00:50:17.880 than that,
00:50:18.800 but good
00:50:19.940 beginning
00:50:20.500 negotiating
00:50:21.400 practice.
00:50:23.420 You know,
00:50:23.660 Trump's tariff
00:50:25.020 threats are
00:50:26.360 much stronger
00:50:27.200 because he
00:50:27.940 created the
00:50:28.900 External Revenue
00:50:29.960 Service recently
00:50:30.920 saying that
00:50:32.080 we're going to
00:50:32.360 start making
00:50:32.860 money from
00:50:33.540 tariffs and
00:50:34.860 various external
00:50:36.120 sources.
00:50:37.040 The fact that
00:50:37.780 he created it
00:50:38.580 at all
00:50:39.080 gives a lot
00:50:40.840 of credibility
00:50:41.560 to that he
00:50:43.120 would use it
00:50:43.760 as a weapon.
00:50:44.380 and now
00:50:47.300 people can
00:50:47.920 negotiate
00:50:48.480 knowing he's
00:50:49.800 going to
00:50:50.000 use it.
00:50:51.080 If you
00:50:51.660 didn't know
00:50:52.060 for sure
00:50:52.520 he was going
00:50:52.980 to tariff
00:50:53.500 you and
00:50:54.060 you thought
00:50:54.360 that was
00:50:54.640 a bluff,
00:50:55.320 you might
00:50:56.020 treat it
00:50:56.400 like a
00:50:56.700 bluff.
00:50:57.500 But once
00:50:58.100 he's created
00:50:58.540 an entire
00:50:59.000 department
00:50:59.460 to take
00:50:59.860 your money,
00:51:00.680 it's hard
00:51:01.360 to see it
00:51:01.740 as a bluff
00:51:02.140 anymore,
00:51:02.440 isn't it?
00:51:03.420 He created
00:51:04.200 a department
00:51:04.780 to take
00:51:05.560 your money.
00:51:06.560 That's the
00:51:07.120 name of the
00:51:07.520 department.
00:51:08.400 He named
00:51:08.840 it Take
00:51:09.460 Your Money
00:51:09.840 almost.
00:51:13.220 So that's
00:51:13.960 a good
00:51:14.360 play,
00:51:15.180 very good
00:51:16.140 play
00:51:16.520 negotiation
00:51:17.760 wise.
00:51:19.040 The people
00:51:20.500 who are
00:51:20.780 going to
00:51:21.020 say,
00:51:21.820 but Scott,
00:51:22.440 don't you
00:51:22.860 know that
00:51:23.440 the company
00:51:24.080 that pays
00:51:24.520 it is the
00:51:25.120 American
00:51:25.380 company,
00:51:26.020 not the
00:51:26.960 Chinese
00:51:27.380 company?
00:51:28.860 Well,
00:51:29.880 if it
00:51:31.140 works as
00:51:31.580 negotiation,
00:51:32.420 it works.
00:51:33.940 So that's
00:51:35.420 the important
00:51:35.780 part.
00:51:37.480 The Wall
00:51:38.120 Street Journal
00:51:38.620 editorial board
00:51:39.520 does not
00:51:40.300 think that
00:51:40.800 Trump has
00:51:41.300 the authority
00:51:42.200 to keep
00:51:42.720 TikTok
00:51:43.100 alive because
00:51:44.700 the rules
00:51:45.640 about how
00:51:46.320 they could
00:51:46.740 extend
00:51:47.440 their life
00:51:49.220 were written
00:51:51.140 by Congress
00:51:51.900 and Congress
00:51:52.980 said you have
00:51:53.980 to meet
00:51:54.240 these specific
00:51:54.980 requirements of
00:51:55.980 being in the
00:51:56.820 works of a
00:51:57.440 serious deal
00:51:58.200 and then you
00:51:59.160 can extend
00:51:59.660 it.
00:52:00.400 We don't
00:52:00.920 have in the
00:52:01.380 works any
00:52:01.920 kind of
00:52:02.240 serious deal.
00:52:03.180 There's some
00:52:03.580 indication of
00:52:04.400 interest and
00:52:04.920 stuff, but
00:52:05.340 they're not
00:52:05.640 negotiating
00:52:06.880 seriously.
00:52:08.560 So the
00:52:09.520 technically
00:52:10.900 Trump does
00:52:12.420 not have
00:52:12.940 the authority
00:52:13.940 as far as
00:52:14.880 I can tell
00:52:15.360 just as a
00:52:16.040 citizen, it
00:52:16.660 doesn't look
00:52:17.060 like it, to
00:52:18.260 extend it.
00:52:20.040 But here's
00:52:20.420 the problem.
00:52:22.160 It's complete
00:52:23.080 common sense.
00:52:25.980 So the
00:52:27.400 power of this
00:52:28.280 common sense
00:52:29.040 thing, it's
00:52:30.500 going to be
00:52:30.860 hard to
00:52:31.640 estimate how
00:52:32.860 powerful this
00:52:33.600 is because
00:52:34.700 if you
00:52:35.360 said to
00:52:35.700 me, Trump
00:52:37.080 wants to
00:52:37.740 create 75
00:52:39.220 more days
00:52:40.060 that he's
00:52:40.660 not allowed
00:52:41.060 to create
00:52:41.680 so that a
00:52:43.120 good deal
00:52:43.580 could be
00:52:43.920 reached that
00:52:44.500 would be
00:52:44.820 good for
00:52:45.340 the owners
00:52:46.760 of Bit
00:52:47.120 Dance, good
00:52:48.200 for the
00:52:48.440 United States,
00:52:49.320 and good
00:52:49.760 for our
00:52:50.260 public.
00:52:51.500 That's what
00:52:52.160 Trump's trying
00:52:52.720 to do.
00:52:53.760 Doesn't mean
00:52:54.360 it will
00:52:54.560 happen, but
00:52:56.060 isn't it
00:52:56.900 common sense
00:52:57.820 that if we're
00:52:59.040 close enough,
00:53:00.080 it looks like
00:53:00.660 a deal could
00:53:01.340 be made
00:53:01.880 that delaying
00:53:03.140 75 days,
00:53:05.020 even if you
00:53:05.560 don't have
00:53:05.980 that authority,
00:53:08.040 isn't it still
00:53:08.880 just common
00:53:09.400 sense?
00:53:11.100 I think it's
00:53:12.040 common sense.
00:53:12.700 And if he
00:53:13.000 went back to
00:53:13.480 Congress and
00:53:14.040 said, oh,
00:53:14.860 let's waste
00:53:15.520 your time to
00:53:16.480 alter the
00:53:17.340 law so that
00:53:18.040 I can give
00:53:18.640 it 75 days,
00:53:20.140 it would just
00:53:20.540 be a huge
00:53:21.020 waste of
00:53:21.480 money and
00:53:21.840 time.
00:53:23.160 So here's
00:53:24.180 the thing
00:53:24.500 that I think
00:53:25.060 is going to
00:53:26.080 be fun to
00:53:26.680 watch.
00:53:27.660 When Trump
00:53:28.460 orders something
00:53:29.200 he does not
00:53:30.020 have authority
00:53:30.720 for,
00:53:31.080 and I
00:53:31.460 think this
00:53:31.840 is one,
00:53:32.960 but is so
00:53:33.960 clearly and
00:53:35.020 unambiguously
00:53:35.840 good for
00:53:36.340 everybody,
00:53:37.140 it's just
00:53:37.520 common sense.
00:53:38.740 Who's going
00:53:39.340 to fight it?
00:53:40.580 Are the
00:53:40.940 Democrats going
00:53:41.580 to fight it
00:53:42.120 because they
00:53:43.300 can?
00:53:44.140 Are the
00:53:44.700 Democrats going
00:53:45.340 to fight to
00:53:46.320 keep TikTok
00:53:47.700 banned?
00:53:48.740 They can't
00:53:49.180 fight that.
00:53:50.340 The Democrats
00:53:50.780 can't take the
00:53:51.460 other side because
00:53:52.580 they want their
00:53:53.680 public to get
00:53:54.780 TikTok too.
00:53:56.640 So Trump
00:53:58.220 is finding
00:53:58.800 himself in
00:53:59.380 this weird
00:53:59.820 little situation
00:54:00.700 where he
00:54:01.800 can publicly,
00:54:02.920 overtly,
00:54:03.640 and obviously
00:54:04.400 ignore the
00:54:05.780 law in
00:54:06.620 just a
00:54:07.240 technical way.
00:54:08.040 It's not
00:54:08.320 really an
00:54:08.640 important point.
00:54:10.240 It's just a
00:54:10.740 little technical
00:54:11.460 thing.
00:54:12.640 But because the
00:54:13.360 common sense
00:54:13.920 argument is
00:54:14.520 just overwhelming,
00:54:17.820 all you get,
00:54:18.500 I think,
00:54:18.880 is the
00:54:19.580 editorial board
00:54:20.520 warning you
00:54:21.360 that this is a
00:54:23.180 little bit over
00:54:23.600 the line.
00:54:24.680 Remember what I
00:54:25.300 told you before?
00:54:25.980 with great
00:54:26.980 responsibility or
00:54:28.160 with great
00:54:28.580 power comes
00:54:29.120 great
00:54:29.360 responsibility.
00:54:30.520 This is a
00:54:31.060 good job by
00:54:31.600 the Wall
00:54:31.900 Street editorial
00:54:33.000 board.
00:54:34.040 It's a good
00:54:34.740 job.
00:54:35.420 Because what I
00:54:36.100 want to see
00:54:36.720 when Trump
00:54:38.160 goes a little
00:54:39.500 extra, even if
00:54:40.980 it's completely
00:54:41.660 satisfied by an
00:54:44.220 appeal to common
00:54:44.900 sense, which this
00:54:45.780 is, I want
00:54:47.360 somebody in the
00:54:48.880 press to say,
00:54:49.960 just so you
00:54:50.500 know, this is
00:54:52.120 going over the
00:54:52.680 line.
00:54:53.680 It's not a
00:54:54.440 line that I
00:54:55.000 respect.
00:54:56.260 I like the
00:54:56.880 common sense
00:54:57.460 more than some
00:54:58.300 technical bureaucratic
00:54:59.540 bullshit.
00:55:00.840 So I'm real happy
00:55:02.020 about it.
00:55:02.920 But I like, I
00:55:04.180 like the fact the
00:55:05.140 Wall Street editorial
00:55:05.740 says, let's be
00:55:07.260 clear-eyed about
00:55:08.000 this.
00:55:08.860 Just know what's
00:55:09.700 happening.
00:55:11.140 If this worries
00:55:12.180 you, now you
00:55:12.840 understand it.
00:55:14.040 That's all good.
00:55:15.280 Golden age.
00:55:17.400 All right.
00:55:18.840 I don't know if
00:55:19.600 that deal will get
00:55:20.200 done.
00:55:20.580 We'll see.
00:55:22.200 Maybe.
00:55:22.960 So apparently
00:55:27.240 the European
00:55:28.500 Union has some
00:55:30.180 AI rules that
00:55:31.380 they put in
00:55:31.880 place.
00:55:33.560 And I saw
00:55:34.380 some opinions
00:55:35.000 on this by a
00:55:37.000 gentleman on
00:55:37.600 X named
00:55:38.340 Ole Lehmann.
00:55:39.680 I think he's a
00:55:40.400 German, so he 0.97
00:55:41.280 had some insight
00:55:41.900 in this.
00:55:42.760 And he said,
00:55:43.360 the EU just
00:55:44.200 passed the
00:55:44.640 world's first
00:55:45.200 comprehensive AI
00:55:46.340 regulation, and
00:55:48.840 it creates a
00:55:50.260 massive new
00:55:50.920 oversight office.
00:55:51.880 has fines up
00:55:53.680 to 35 million
00:55:54.860 or 7% of
00:55:56.060 your global
00:55:56.580 revenues.
00:55:57.480 Oh, my God.
00:55:59.200 That's a pretty
00:56:00.000 big fine.
00:56:01.060 7% of your
00:56:02.140 global revenues.
00:56:04.960 Imagine if
00:56:05.720 you're open AI
00:56:06.480 or something.
00:56:07.360 You're one of
00:56:08.160 the biggest
00:56:08.520 ones.
00:56:09.600 That's a lot.
00:56:10.500 So it also
00:56:13.400 includes, just
00:56:14.300 for the
00:56:14.560 European Union,
00:56:15.780 mandatory human
00:56:16.680 oversight for
00:56:17.940 basic AI
00:56:18.740 tasks.
00:56:20.500 What?
00:56:23.660 Mandatory human 0.98
00:56:24.980 oversight for
00:56:26.780 basic AI
00:56:27.840 tasks.
00:56:28.520 What?
00:56:33.960 Do I even need
00:56:34.900 to talk about
00:56:35.460 that?
00:56:36.320 If a human
00:56:37.080 has to
00:56:37.480 overlook and
00:56:38.240 check everything
00:56:38.980 the AI does,
00:56:40.360 how can the
00:56:40.900 AI ever
00:56:41.620 replace a
00:56:42.420 job?
00:56:44.100 Or, I
00:56:45.000 mean, that's
00:56:47.180 pretty heavy.
00:56:49.100 Training data
00:56:50.040 disclosures.
00:56:51.040 So I guess we'd
00:56:51.700 have to know
00:56:52.300 what the AI
00:56:53.100 trained on.
00:56:54.040 I know I hate
00:56:54.520 that.
00:56:55.400 Multiple
00:56:55.900 certifications and
00:56:57.020 regular audits.
00:56:57.780 This will drive
00:56:58.640 the AI
00:56:59.180 companies crazy.
00:57:00.420 Continuous
00:57:00.880 monitoring and
00:57:01.740 risk assessments
00:57:02.540 drive them
00:57:03.120 crazy.
00:57:04.020 Generative AI
00:57:04.820 without extensive
00:57:05.780 content filtering
00:57:06.860 is banned.
00:57:09.200 What would be
00:57:10.080 enough extensive
00:57:11.120 content filtering?
00:57:13.220 AI-powered
00:57:14.220 hiring without
00:57:14.960 human oversight
00:57:15.800 is illegal
00:57:16.600 in the EU.
00:57:18.980 You can't use
00:57:19.900 the AI to
00:57:20.540 hire somebody
00:57:21.120 unless the
00:57:22.880 human makes
00:57:23.400 the decision.
00:57:25.780 Which is
00:57:26.520 the norm.
00:57:27.080 That's the
00:57:27.680 current
00:57:27.880 situation.
00:57:29.180 But wouldn't
00:57:30.580 you like to
00:57:31.380 have the
00:57:31.680 option?
00:57:32.900 I mean, just
00:57:33.420 to test it
00:57:34.100 out?
00:57:34.700 To have the
00:57:35.080 AI hire some
00:57:36.520 people?
00:57:37.420 I would.
00:57:38.780 I mean, I
00:57:39.140 don't think you
00:57:39.560 would use it
00:57:40.040 that often.
00:57:41.540 But why not
00:57:42.320 make it available?
00:57:43.480 I don't know.
00:57:44.120 Not Europe.
00:57:47.220 Educational
00:57:47.700 AI without
00:57:48.360 you can't have
00:57:49.440 an educational
00:57:50.160 AI unless the
00:57:51.240 teacher is
00:57:51.780 supervising.
00:57:52.360 So all the
00:57:54.720 benefits of
00:57:56.380 some kind
00:57:56.880 of a, you
00:57:57.660 know, virtual
00:57:58.640 AI teaching
00:57:59.700 would be
00:58:00.960 lost if the
00:58:01.660 teacher has to
00:58:02.180 be standing in
00:58:02.860 the room
00:58:03.100 watching it
00:58:03.620 while you
00:58:03.920 watch it.
00:58:05.160 Wow.
00:58:07.220 Most medical
00:58:08.260 AI applications
00:58:09.280 would be banned
00:58:10.120 to protect
00:58:12.040 doctors, I
00:58:13.940 guess.
00:58:14.960 And real-time
00:58:16.040 facial recognition
00:58:16.920 would be banned.
00:58:18.500 Now, think
00:58:21.320 about all
00:58:21.880 those restrictions.
00:58:23.900 Now, here's
00:58:24.960 a quiz.
00:58:26.520 How many of
00:58:27.220 the top AI
00:58:28.340 companies were
00:58:29.900 founded and
00:58:31.160 nurtured in
00:58:33.820 Europe?
00:58:35.400 None.
00:58:36.820 None.
00:58:37.560 Because if
00:58:38.360 you're an
00:58:39.080 entrepreneur and
00:58:40.240 you've got the
00:58:40.740 skills to create
00:58:41.480 an AI company,
00:58:42.560 first thing you're
00:58:43.280 going to do is
00:58:43.640 move out of
00:58:44.080 Europe because
00:58:45.820 of this.
00:58:46.900 So Europe
00:58:48.080 basically just
00:58:49.080 took them
00:58:49.600 out of the
00:58:50.040 game for
00:58:51.520 the only way
00:58:52.220 a country is
00:58:52.760 going to be
00:58:53.000 able to
00:58:53.280 survive in
00:58:53.860 the future.
00:58:54.720 And they
00:58:54.980 just took
00:58:55.340 themselves out
00:58:55.900 of the
00:58:56.060 game.
00:58:56.800 It's
00:58:57.280 basically
00:58:57.760 suicide.
00:59:00.800 If they
00:59:01.540 say you
00:59:02.820 can't use
00:59:03.540 AI the
00:59:04.880 way it was
00:59:05.260 meant to be
00:59:05.760 used, you
00:59:06.220 know, in
00:59:06.420 its ultimate
00:59:06.860 form, if
00:59:07.900 you're not
00:59:08.200 allowed to
00:59:08.580 use it in
00:59:09.100 Europe, that
00:59:10.580 sounds good
00:59:11.300 to dumb
00:59:11.760 people, but
00:59:13.800 if you wind
00:59:14.940 that tape
00:59:15.760 forward a
00:59:16.380 little bit,
00:59:16.900 I don't
00:59:17.340 think there's
00:59:17.740 any question
00:59:18.460 what happens.
00:59:19.460 Europe just
00:59:20.000 fails.
00:59:22.080 And how
00:59:22.960 do they not
00:59:23.480 know that?
00:59:24.860 Is this an
00:59:25.660 American versus 0.98
00:59:26.460 European thing
00:59:27.300 that the
00:59:28.200 Americans just 0.98
00:59:28.780 sort of
00:59:29.100 intuitively know
00:59:30.200 that you're
00:59:31.020 going to have
00:59:31.220 to remove
00:59:31.740 regulations to
00:59:34.140 succeed at
00:59:34.820 anything?
00:59:36.160 I don't know.
00:59:37.500 Maybe the
00:59:38.020 Europeans know
00:59:38.640 it, but they
00:59:38.980 don't care.
00:59:40.540 So, yeah, it
00:59:41.200 looks like
00:59:41.580 the European
00:59:42.440 Union has
00:59:43.160 signed its
00:59:43.660 own
00:59:43.940 civilization
00:59:45.540 death
00:59:47.280 sentence.
00:59:49.000 We'll see.
00:59:50.640 Tucker Carlson
00:59:51.560 had Eric
00:59:52.120 Adams, Mayor
00:59:52.760 Adams of
00:59:53.500 New York
00:59:53.720 City, on
00:59:54.500 Tucker's
00:59:55.500 show.
00:59:56.800 And, you
00:59:58.000 know, Tucker's
00:59:59.500 take was that
01:00:00.560 Mayor Adams is
01:00:02.520 being law
01:00:03.040 fared and
01:00:04.060 that the
01:00:04.380 charges against
01:00:05.180 them were
01:00:05.740 technically true,
01:00:07.780 but so weak
01:00:08.620 that you
01:00:09.180 wouldn't really
01:00:09.720 expect anybody
01:00:10.420 to be
01:00:10.840 prosecuted for
01:00:11.700 it.
01:00:12.240 There's no
01:00:12.700 victims, zero
01:00:14.580 victims, no
01:00:16.360 sign of really
01:00:17.180 any bribery
01:00:18.780 of consequence.
01:00:20.800 I think it
01:00:21.400 came down to
01:00:22.160 he helped the
01:00:24.160 Turkish
01:00:24.520 government see
01:00:26.560 if their
01:00:27.060 embassy would
01:00:28.120 be fire
01:00:28.940 code ready
01:00:31.340 without a
01:00:32.700 long delay.
01:00:34.660 Now, I
01:00:35.920 have literally
01:00:36.540 used my
01:00:37.160 government for
01:00:37.820 that service.
01:00:39.420 I have
01:00:39.640 literally
01:00:40.000 contacted, you
01:00:41.440 know, many
01:00:41.820 years ago,
01:00:42.680 contacted a
01:00:43.420 senator, the
01:00:44.340 sitting senator,
01:00:45.280 my senator at
01:00:46.240 the time, and
01:00:47.340 said there's a
01:00:48.240 thing that's
01:00:48.700 being delayed.
01:00:50.080 I won't be
01:00:50.640 more specific,
01:00:51.800 but there was
01:00:52.180 something in the
01:00:52.700 bowels of the
01:00:53.280 government being
01:00:53.840 delayed that
01:00:54.400 made a big
01:00:54.800 difference to a
01:00:55.400 lot of people.
01:00:56.780 And I
01:00:57.100 contacted my
01:00:57.800 senator and
01:00:58.300 said, can
01:00:58.660 you look into
01:00:59.140 this?
01:01:00.220 Because I
01:01:00.760 don't think
01:01:01.040 there's any
01:01:01.380 good reason
01:01:01.920 this is being
01:01:02.460 delayed.
01:01:03.680 And the
01:01:03.980 senator looked
01:01:04.620 into it.
01:01:05.120 It was Pete
01:01:05.500 Wilson, by
01:01:06.040 the way,
01:01:06.520 Senator Pete
01:01:07.140 Wilson.
01:01:07.440 And his
01:01:08.520 staff, or
01:01:09.220 his staff
01:01:09.580 contacted me
01:01:11.280 immediately, said
01:01:13.040 they got the
01:01:13.880 letter and that
01:01:14.640 they're going to
01:01:15.120 check with the
01:01:15.760 agency that I
01:01:16.520 had a problem
01:01:16.940 with.
01:01:17.880 And almost
01:01:19.340 immediately, the
01:01:20.660 agency acted.
01:01:23.600 and so
01:01:24.800 something that
01:01:25.500 people had been
01:01:26.200 waiting for a
01:01:26.820 year came
01:01:28.440 online because
01:01:29.280 I asked the
01:01:30.160 senator, the
01:01:31.200 senator asked
01:01:31.880 and then it
01:01:32.940 was a higher
01:01:33.340 priority.
01:01:34.740 So I don't
01:01:37.480 have any
01:01:37.880 problem if the
01:01:38.760 Turkish
01:01:39.100 government, which
01:01:40.020 is spending
01:01:40.540 money in New
01:01:41.440 York City to
01:01:42.260 put their
01:01:42.600 embassy and
01:01:43.380 will spend a
01:01:43.980 lot more
01:01:44.340 money in New
01:01:44.840 York City to
01:01:46.480 have this place
01:01:47.540 to have relations
01:01:48.160 with the United
01:01:48.680 States.
01:01:49.040 If they
01:01:49.800 say, hey,
01:01:50.760 your red
01:01:51.260 tape is
01:01:51.700 holding us
01:01:52.200 up, can
01:01:53.060 you take a
01:01:53.540 look at that?
01:01:54.720 And then he
01:01:55.060 takes a look at
01:01:56.160 it and maybe it
01:01:56.840 did make it
01:01:57.840 happen a little
01:01:58.300 sooner.
01:01:58.940 And then he
01:02:00.400 got repaid by
01:02:02.580 they upgraded
01:02:03.400 his flights to
01:02:04.420 first class.
01:02:05.880 The most common
01:02:07.080 thing that would
01:02:07.680 happen to a
01:02:08.340 high-level
01:02:08.820 politician is
01:02:10.120 having a flight
01:02:10.760 upgraded.
01:02:11.240 it's so
01:02:13.060 routine that
01:02:14.180 the airlines
01:02:15.040 do it.
01:02:16.580 Now, in this
01:02:16.980 case, it
01:02:17.480 might have
01:02:17.700 been he got
01:02:18.100 a little help
01:02:18.560 from Turkish
01:02:19.300 government.
01:02:20.320 Now, is that
01:02:20.920 technically illegal?
01:02:22.440 Well, the
01:02:23.580 people charging
01:02:24.240 him seem to
01:02:24.760 think so.
01:02:25.520 Is it
01:02:25.840 something you
01:02:26.380 care about?
01:02:27.980 Do you care
01:02:28.780 that he did
01:02:30.000 something normal,
01:02:31.600 which is check
01:02:32.640 on some red
01:02:33.260 tape for
01:02:34.100 somebody who
01:02:34.640 spends a lot
01:02:35.160 of money in
01:02:35.560 New York
01:02:35.780 City?
01:02:37.500 As long as
01:02:38.240 they're spending
01:02:38.660 a lot of money
01:02:39.180 in his city and
01:02:39.980 they ask him to
01:02:40.680 look into the
01:02:41.220 red tape, I
01:02:41.840 don't have a
01:02:42.200 problem with
01:02:42.540 that.
01:02:43.120 And if they
01:02:43.840 repaid him by
01:02:45.000 upgrading his
01:02:45.780 seats, I don't
01:02:46.900 have a problem
01:02:47.280 with that either.
01:02:48.880 No problem at
01:02:49.580 all.
01:02:51.060 Technically illegal?
01:02:52.260 I don't know.
01:02:53.280 I'm no expert,
01:02:54.380 maybe, but it
01:02:55.820 doesn't seem like
01:02:56.480 something you
01:02:56.940 would prosecute
01:02:57.640 somebody for.
01:02:58.700 So there does
01:02:59.320 seem to be a
01:02:59.920 lawfare element
01:03:00.880 to the Eric Adams
01:03:02.900 thing, but we'll
01:03:03.620 see.
01:03:04.380 We don't know
01:03:05.160 all the details.
01:03:05.900 There might be
01:03:06.220 more to it.
01:03:08.480 You all know
01:03:09.140 the story of
01:03:09.760 the Trumps were
01:03:11.080 at the National
01:03:11.900 Prayer Service
01:03:12.760 yesterday, and
01:03:14.800 I guess the
01:03:15.280 bishop was a
01:03:16.800 woman who's 1.00
01:03:18.100 very woke
01:03:18.820 and sort
01:03:22.220 of tried to
01:03:22.980 embarrass the
01:03:23.740 Trumps by
01:03:25.520 saying things
01:03:26.120 about immigration,
01:03:28.140 empathy, etc.,
01:03:29.280 that were really
01:03:31.180 out of place
01:03:31.900 for the
01:03:33.700 National Prayer
01:03:35.460 Service.
01:03:35.900 But Trump
01:03:37.460 didn't take
01:03:37.960 that well,
01:03:39.100 and he
01:03:40.840 called her
01:03:41.600 out.
01:03:42.040 So what did
01:03:42.440 he say?
01:03:43.920 On True
01:03:44.560 Social, he
01:03:45.100 said she was
01:03:45.860 nasty in tone
01:03:46.680 and not
01:03:47.880 compelling or
01:03:48.580 smart.
01:03:49.960 This is a
01:03:50.760 bishop.
01:03:51.820 So this is a
01:03:52.800 bishop he's
01:03:53.320 talking about.
01:03:54.280 She was nasty 1.00
01:03:55.100 in tone and
01:03:55.740 not compelling
01:03:56.360 or smart.
01:03:57.900 He said the
01:03:58.700 service was
01:03:59.300 boring and
01:03:59.940 uninspiring,
01:04:00.680 and he
01:04:01.480 demands an
01:04:02.060 apology.
01:04:09.000 He demands
01:04:10.160 an apology.
01:04:12.080 So good.
01:04:15.380 Yeah, that's
01:04:17.920 the guy we
01:04:19.120 voted in.
01:04:22.580 You know, I
01:04:23.600 don't think it
01:04:24.040 was important
01:04:24.800 for him to
01:04:25.940 push back,
01:04:26.840 but the fact
01:04:27.700 that he always
01:04:28.500 pushes back,
01:04:29.280 I do
01:04:30.380 appreciate that.
01:04:31.880 I do
01:04:32.260 appreciate he
01:04:32.940 doesn't give
01:04:33.360 anybody a
01:04:33.860 free pass.
01:04:35.180 That is
01:04:35.680 part of his
01:04:36.220 magic, that
01:04:37.060 nobody gets
01:04:37.640 a free pass.
01:04:40.260 Anyway, more
01:04:41.120 about that
01:04:41.700 Trump press
01:04:42.860 conference where
01:04:44.140 Larry Ellison and
01:04:45.800 Sam Altman were
01:04:46.480 there.
01:04:46.920 And the big
01:04:48.520 news was
01:04:49.500 that, let
01:04:52.560 me get his
01:04:53.000 name right,
01:04:55.640 Mayoshi
01:04:56.620 Sun.
01:04:59.280 you'll
01:05:00.160 correct me
01:05:00.600 in the
01:05:00.840 comments.
01:05:02.420 But the
01:05:03.880 founder of
01:05:04.360 SoftBank,
01:05:05.180 when he was
01:05:05.660 here not
01:05:06.100 long ago,
01:05:06.720 just very
01:05:07.720 recently, he
01:05:08.680 said he was
01:05:09.080 going to put
01:05:09.420 $100 billion
01:05:10.020 into the
01:05:11.320 AI infrastructure
01:05:13.100 in the United
01:05:13.640 States.
01:05:15.320 And then
01:05:16.040 Trump jokingly
01:05:17.380 in public
01:05:17.900 said, you
01:05:18.320 know, $200
01:05:19.680 billion, $200
01:05:21.000 billion would be
01:05:21.540 even better.
01:05:22.680 And the
01:05:24.320 SoftBank
01:05:25.500 guy laughed
01:05:27.600 off, but you
01:05:28.620 could tell he
01:05:29.080 was sort of
01:05:29.500 thinking about
01:05:29.980 it.
01:05:30.400 And then he
01:05:30.700 comes back
01:05:31.240 and he
01:05:31.480 said, I
01:05:32.880 already committed
01:05:33.480 $100,000, you
01:05:34.980 asked me for
01:05:35.480 $200,000, I
01:05:36.740 came back
01:05:37.180 today, $500,000.
01:05:40.520 You committed
01:05:41.440 $500 billion
01:05:42.540 for this
01:05:45.000 project that
01:05:45.660 will build
01:05:46.100 what I think
01:05:47.620 Ellison calls
01:05:48.320 the biggest
01:05:48.880 computer in the
01:05:49.820 world.
01:05:50.780 So essentially
01:05:51.520 a data center,
01:05:53.440 but with the
01:05:54.440 right boards and
01:05:55.600 chips and whatnot,
01:05:56.260 it becomes one
01:05:57.080 big computer
01:05:57.720 for AI.
01:06:01.100 And some
01:06:02.540 of the things
01:06:02.960 that they're
01:06:03.280 talking about,
01:06:04.600 so Larry
01:06:05.020 Ellison, it's
01:06:05.720 the Stargate
01:06:06.280 project is
01:06:06.980 what it's
01:06:07.200 called, the
01:06:08.340 largest computer
01:06:09.260 ever built.
01:06:10.240 And he talked
01:06:10.640 about using
01:06:11.220 the AI to
01:06:12.000 create, wait
01:06:14.280 for it, using
01:06:15.880 the AI to
01:06:16.640 create, wait
01:06:19.140 for it, mRNA
01:06:22.640 cancer vaccines.
01:06:24.220 Now, as
01:06:26.880 he explained
01:06:27.380 it, the
01:06:28.140 idea would
01:06:28.700 be that
01:06:30.160 AI can
01:06:31.440 first of all
01:06:32.040 identify cancer
01:06:33.260 before there
01:06:34.660 are symptoms.
01:06:35.900 So he
01:06:36.720 says the
01:06:38.180 AI can see
01:06:38.980 the markers
01:06:39.520 in the blood
01:06:40.200 where other
01:06:41.080 tests maybe
01:06:41.720 would not.
01:06:42.260 So the
01:06:42.580 AI can
01:06:43.160 first of all
01:06:44.020 determine it
01:06:44.980 early, that's
01:06:45.700 good, and
01:06:46.820 then the
01:06:47.920 AI can
01:06:48.960 determine
01:06:50.340 exactly what
01:06:51.440 treatment would
01:06:52.680 work for
01:06:53.120 exactly you
01:06:54.020 for that
01:06:55.600 exact tumor
01:06:56.320 or cancer.
01:06:58.560 And then
01:06:58.900 they would, in
01:06:59.780 48 hours, they
01:07:00.860 would whip
01:07:01.160 together a
01:07:02.020 vaccine that
01:07:03.720 would be, I
01:07:04.220 guess, on
01:07:04.560 this mRNA
01:07:05.140 platform that
01:07:07.520 you love so
01:07:08.120 much, and
01:07:09.600 that it would
01:07:10.040 deliver a
01:07:11.120 very specific
01:07:13.220 kill shot to
01:07:14.640 your cancer,
01:07:15.420 basically a
01:07:16.140 cure for
01:07:16.500 cancer.
01:07:19.020 Mike
01:07:19.580 Cernovich saw
01:07:20.680 that and had
01:07:21.860 a one-word
01:07:22.360 answer, no.
01:07:24.960 I believe
01:07:25.920 the no is 0.51
01:07:26.920 because of
01:07:27.400 the mRNA
01:07:27.960 part and
01:07:28.880 because of
01:07:29.360 our pandemic
01:07:30.080 experience.
01:07:32.280 But I
01:07:33.100 got a
01:07:33.360 question.
01:07:35.600 Who says
01:07:36.600 no to a
01:07:37.520 vaccination if
01:07:38.760 the alternative
01:07:39.480 is you're
01:07:40.160 dead?
01:07:41.880 Because it's
01:07:43.900 not like you
01:07:44.360 have other
01:07:44.760 alternatives.
01:07:46.260 If they find
01:07:47.300 a way to
01:07:47.720 cure incurable
01:07:49.020 cancers without
01:07:50.460 side effects,
01:07:51.500 because remember
01:07:51.940 the side
01:07:52.320 effects would
01:07:52.760 be presumably
01:07:54.160 nil, except
01:07:55.640 for whatever
01:07:56.300 you think
01:07:56.660 about the
01:07:57.020 mRNA.
01:08:00.280 So if
01:08:01.080 somebody said
01:08:01.660 you have
01:08:01.960 cancer and
01:08:02.640 there's nothing
01:08:03.060 we can do
01:08:03.580 about it except
01:08:04.180 these mRNA
01:08:04.920 shots, and
01:08:06.140 by the way,
01:08:07.380 there's plenty
01:08:08.740 of evidence that
01:08:09.440 they completely
01:08:10.120 cure cancer.
01:08:11.380 Now I'm not
01:08:11.820 saying they
01:08:12.200 do.
01:08:13.140 I'm speculating
01:08:14.180 about a future
01:08:14.820 situation.
01:08:16.320 So if AI
01:08:17.140 really could do
01:08:17.860 this, would
01:08:20.400 you not
01:08:20.860 take the
01:08:21.380 mRNA vaccination
01:08:22.820 if you knew
01:08:24.260 it cured
01:08:24.840 cancer, but
01:08:26.180 you were worried
01:08:26.800 about the
01:08:27.200 mRNA itself
01:08:28.520 being at risk
01:08:29.360 to you later?
01:08:30.700 Would you
01:08:31.460 take the
01:08:31.780 shot?
01:08:32.700 How many of
01:08:33.400 you would not
01:08:33.960 take the
01:08:34.480 shot to save
01:08:35.180 your life, if
01:08:36.100 you knew it
01:08:36.420 would save
01:08:36.700 your life,
01:08:37.280 because you
01:08:38.160 wouldn't want
01:08:38.560 the mRNA in
01:08:39.420 you?
01:08:41.540 Who would
01:08:42.300 take that
01:08:42.680 choice?
01:08:44.960 Because I'd
01:08:45.600 be taking the
01:08:46.140 vaccine all day
01:08:46.880 long.
01:08:47.860 If the only
01:08:48.880 alternative was
01:08:49.640 dying, I'd
01:08:52.580 figure, well,
01:08:53.240 if I get
01:08:53.640 side effects
01:08:54.200 from the
01:08:54.800 shot, it 0.98
01:08:56.720 was a
01:08:57.100 reasonable
01:08:57.680 risk.
01:09:01.080 But the
01:09:02.120 developer of
01:09:02.820 the mRNA
01:09:03.320 platform is
01:09:05.360 not so happy
01:09:05.960 about this,
01:09:06.640 and he
01:09:06.880 says, these
01:09:08.460 people, meaning
01:09:09.440 the tech
01:09:10.200 heads, you 0.69
01:09:10.840 know, the
01:09:11.220 Altmans and
01:09:12.180 the Larry
01:09:12.680 Ellison, he
01:09:13.500 said, these
01:09:14.080 people have no
01:09:14.780 idea how
01:09:15.420 complicated the
01:09:16.320 immune system
01:09:17.160 is, and
01:09:18.760 they have no
01:09:19.620 understanding of
01:09:20.700 the difficulties
01:09:21.460 facing predictive
01:09:22.560 computational
01:09:23.360 immunology, and
01:09:25.180 they have no
01:09:25.760 understanding of
01:09:26.560 cancer immunology.
01:09:28.360 This is
01:09:28.720 marketing propaganda
01:09:29.900 and hype.
01:09:31.840 Could be
01:09:32.840 entirely right.
01:09:35.360 I mean, after
01:09:36.000 all, he knows
01:09:36.600 more about
01:09:37.200 mRNA and
01:09:38.180 immune system
01:09:39.520 than any of
01:09:40.340 the people
01:09:40.600 talking about
01:09:41.180 it.
01:09:41.340 But I'm
01:09:43.020 going to
01:09:43.240 give the
01:09:44.460 counterpoint to
01:09:45.200 that.
01:09:46.480 All that
01:09:47.000 stuff that
01:09:47.660 nobody
01:09:48.020 understands,
01:09:49.540 which I
01:09:49.940 agree, you
01:09:50.900 know, it's
01:09:51.100 too complicated
01:09:51.720 for humans to
01:09:52.420 understand, that's
01:09:53.560 really the
01:09:53.940 point of
01:09:54.300 AI.
01:09:56.120 The AI is
01:09:57.000 the thing
01:09:57.440 that its
01:09:59.060 purpose, in
01:10:00.480 this case, is
01:10:01.640 to penetrate the
01:10:02.820 complexity and
01:10:04.360 look for the
01:10:04.840 patterns.
01:10:05.860 So if it
01:10:06.800 can't penetrate
01:10:07.860 the complexity
01:10:08.820 and look for
01:10:09.420 the patterns,
01:10:10.220 yeah, of course
01:10:10.680 it won't
01:10:10.980 work.
01:10:12.440 But I
01:10:14.740 would give
01:10:15.140 this mild,
01:10:16.800 I'll give
01:10:17.440 this mild
01:10:18.140 pushback to
01:10:19.240 Dr. Malone,
01:10:20.500 who, by the
01:10:20.840 way, I like
01:10:21.280 a lot.
01:10:21.820 He used a
01:10:23.020 Dilbert cartoon
01:10:24.180 recently and
01:10:24.960 asked for
01:10:25.360 permission.
01:10:29.280 I think the
01:10:30.100 pushback is
01:10:30.720 this.
01:10:31.220 Everything you
01:10:31.760 said about
01:10:32.240 what they
01:10:32.800 understand is
01:10:33.580 correct.
01:10:35.360 So everything
01:10:36.400 you said about
01:10:37.200 the tech
01:10:38.680 people's lack
01:10:39.620 of understanding,
01:10:40.340 I'm sure
01:10:40.800 that's
01:10:41.080 correct.
01:10:41.760 They have
01:10:42.300 some
01:10:42.540 appreciation
01:10:43.060 for it,
01:10:43.780 but not
01:10:44.560 certainly at
01:10:45.200 the doctor
01:10:46.160 level.
01:10:47.520 So perfectly
01:10:48.960 correct.
01:10:50.280 But does
01:10:51.540 the doctor
01:10:52.080 himself have
01:10:53.460 a blind
01:10:54.400 spot, which
01:10:55.620 is AI?
01:10:57.020 If you
01:10:57.660 looked at
01:10:57.940 what AI
01:10:58.380 can do
01:10:58.780 now, and
01:11:00.100 then you
01:11:00.340 also looked
01:11:00.860 at the
01:11:01.240 complexity of
01:11:03.360 the situation,
01:11:04.700 it would be
01:11:05.240 quite reasonable
01:11:05.940 to say,
01:11:06.520 I don't think
01:11:07.980 AI can get
01:11:08.760 us there.
01:11:10.220 But that's
01:11:11.000 the whole
01:11:11.320 point of
01:11:11.780 building the
01:11:12.240 biggest computer
01:11:12.920 in the world,
01:11:13.620 because the
01:11:14.780 current AI
01:11:15.360 can't get you
01:11:15.960 there.
01:11:17.220 So the
01:11:18.500 people who
01:11:19.080 invented and
01:11:21.060 are heavily
01:11:21.900 investing in
01:11:22.760 AI think that
01:11:25.620 with a
01:11:26.020 supercomputer, it
01:11:27.080 unlocks new
01:11:28.360 powers.
01:11:29.720 Would you bet
01:11:30.500 against that?
01:11:31.780 Would you bet
01:11:32.620 against the
01:11:33.240 people who
01:11:33.740 know the most
01:11:34.420 about AI?
01:11:35.180 would you
01:11:37.380 bet that they
01:11:37.880 can't build
01:11:38.340 something that
01:11:38.800 can solve the
01:11:39.640 complexity that
01:11:41.240 we all agree is
01:11:42.320 much too great
01:11:43.500 for humans to
01:11:44.260 solve, and
01:11:45.280 apparently,
01:11:46.360 currently too
01:11:47.120 great for AI
01:11:48.000 to solve, or
01:11:48.760 would have done
01:11:49.360 it already.
01:11:50.920 So I'm open
01:11:52.520 to this possibly
01:11:53.960 working, but I
01:11:56.140 think Dr.
01:11:56.940 Malone's take
01:11:57.780 that it might be
01:11:58.840 marketing and
01:11:59.540 propaganda and
01:12:00.520 hype, also a
01:12:02.740 very open
01:12:03.280 possibility.
01:12:04.980 So I'm open
01:12:05.620 to both of
01:12:06.200 those being
01:12:06.600 true.
01:12:07.540 It's just that I
01:12:08.480 don't think the
01:12:09.080 doctor can tell,
01:12:10.480 because the
01:12:10.800 doctor would have
01:12:11.560 a blind spot in
01:12:12.600 AI, and I
01:12:13.840 don't think the
01:12:14.360 tech people know
01:12:15.060 for sure, because
01:12:16.520 as Dr.
01:12:17.120 Malone says, they 0.99
01:12:17.920 know the AI, but
01:12:18.920 maybe they don't
01:12:19.720 know the space that
01:12:20.620 they're going to
01:12:20.980 work on as well.
01:12:23.240 So I'm open to
01:12:24.720 both of them being
01:12:25.320 right, but we'll
01:12:26.400 see.
01:12:28.460 Elon Musk says
01:12:29.480 there's a glaring
01:12:30.100 problem that open
01:12:31.700 AI is running out
01:12:32.480 of money, so
01:12:33.580 they're just
01:12:33.900 burning through
01:12:34.420 it like crazy.
01:12:36.620 But we'll see.
01:12:39.220 But Sam
01:12:40.120 Altman said more
01:12:41.000 generally, not
01:12:42.120 just talking about
01:12:42.840 cancer, he says
01:12:43.540 that diseases will
01:12:44.720 get cured at an
01:12:45.760 unprecedented rate.
01:12:50.360 That all
01:12:51.160 depends if the
01:12:53.380 solutions to all
01:12:54.400 these problems can
01:12:55.320 be done with
01:12:56.360 some kind of
01:12:57.000 pattern detection.
01:12:59.300 And that might
01:13:00.180 be true.
01:13:01.320 It might be that
01:13:02.020 pattern is all
01:13:02.720 you need, because
01:13:03.680 if you have
01:13:04.020 enough humans
01:13:04.620 with enough
01:13:05.100 diseases, enough
01:13:06.060 data, you can
01:13:07.460 find patterns that
01:13:08.340 other people
01:13:08.720 couldn't find.
01:13:09.480 And maybe you
01:13:09.900 can just look
01:13:11.140 right into the
01:13:11.840 details of the
01:13:12.580 blood and find
01:13:13.260 things that you
01:13:14.080 couldn't find
01:13:14.580 before.
01:13:15.840 We'll see.
01:13:17.240 Meanwhile, according
01:13:17.960 to the Daily
01:13:18.460 Mail, there's a
01:13:19.760 sexy AI chatbot
01:13:21.100 that's going to
01:13:22.780 get a busty
01:13:23.400 robot body.
01:13:24.100 So you'll have
01:13:25.260 a robot, there'll 0.88
01:13:28.580 be sort of a
01:13:30.280 sexy chatter.
01:13:31.900 Now, I know
01:13:32.720 what you're going
01:13:33.060 to say.
01:13:33.980 You're going to
01:13:34.340 say, you mean a
01:13:35.360 sexbot?
01:13:36.580 No, no, you
01:13:38.480 terrible people.
01:13:40.440 Let me explain
01:13:41.340 what the creator
01:13:42.300 of it says.
01:13:43.960 And this will be
01:13:44.480 his own words.
01:13:45.080 So it's a
01:13:47.540 popular, sexy
01:13:48.400 AI agent, and
01:13:50.100 it's set to
01:13:50.580 receive a
01:13:51.060 robotic body
01:13:51.980 that becomes a
01:13:53.440 quote, productive
01:13:54.380 partner for lonely
01:13:55.640 men in the real
01:13:56.420 world.
01:13:57.260 See?
01:13:57.920 Nothing about
01:13:58.520 sex.
01:13:59.780 It's really just
01:14:00.380 a partner.
01:14:01.280 But it goes
01:14:01.840 on.
01:14:03.540 It's designed
01:14:04.160 as a young
01:14:04.780 woman with 0.99
01:14:05.400 long black
01:14:05.880 hair, dark
01:14:06.920 rimmed glasses,
01:14:08.220 pouty lips, and 0.51
01:14:09.020 large breasts. 0.91
01:14:10.600 For talking.
01:14:11.680 For talking.
01:14:12.920 Which will be
01:14:13.960 5 foot, 10
01:14:17.000 inch tall.
01:14:17.600 Well, that's
01:14:17.920 too tall.
01:14:19.660 Why are they
01:14:20.540 making the
01:14:21.040 chatbot as
01:14:22.100 tall as a
01:14:22.600 dude?
01:14:23.440 No.
01:14:24.040 Take a couple
01:14:24.660 inches off of
01:14:25.320 that chatbot,
01:14:26.000 please.
01:14:27.340 It's created
01:14:28.080 by Eliza
01:14:28.860 Labs.
01:14:31.100 And it's
01:14:31.820 going to mirror
01:14:32.320 human emotions
01:14:33.200 and expressions.
01:14:35.400 Again, all you
01:14:36.840 perverts, shut 1.00
01:14:37.760 up.
01:14:38.680 It's not for
01:14:39.280 sex.
01:14:39.700 It's not a
01:14:40.100 sexbot.
01:14:41.000 It's just
01:14:41.460 sort of a
01:14:42.600 cool,
01:14:43.600 chatting
01:14:44.020 partner.
01:14:47.040 And then
01:14:47.680 the company
01:14:48.060 says that
01:14:48.740 Eliza, that 0.65
01:14:50.180 would be the
01:14:50.560 robot, can
01:14:51.620 also cut a
01:14:52.820 cigar and
01:14:53.840 pour a
01:14:54.220 drink.
01:14:55.580 And it's
01:14:55.880 going to
01:14:56.040 come with
01:14:56.340 custom
01:14:56.760 tailored
01:14:57.060 clothes and
01:14:57.760 optional
01:14:58.200 accessories.
01:14:59.460 I wonder
01:14:59.820 what kind of
01:15:00.300 optional
01:15:00.720 accessories.
01:15:02.680 So Eliza
01:15:03.520 Labs says the
01:15:04.180 robot was not
01:15:04.980 designed for
01:15:05.560 sex.
01:15:06.100 That's what I'm
01:15:06.520 telling you.
01:15:07.560 People, the
01:15:08.440 robot's not
01:15:08.940 designed for
01:15:09.500 sex.
01:15:09.860 So get your
01:15:10.540 mind out of
01:15:12.440 the gutter,
01:15:12.880 will you?
01:15:14.040 What they
01:15:14.660 explain to
01:15:15.120 the company
01:15:15.420 is that the
01:15:15.920 robot was
01:15:16.440 not designed
01:15:16.920 for sex.
01:15:17.760 The company
01:15:18.220 is developing
01:15:18.820 an artificial
01:15:19.440 vagina. 1.00
01:15:22.480 Wait, so
01:15:23.080 it's not
01:15:23.620 designed for
01:15:24.240 sex, but
01:15:25.740 the company
01:15:26.220 is going to
01:15:27.120 include it
01:15:27.660 with an
01:15:28.140 artificial
01:15:28.600 vagina. 1.00
01:15:32.040 Well, I
01:15:33.800 mean, you
01:15:33.980 have to read
01:15:34.420 between the
01:15:34.960 lines a little
01:15:35.440 bit here.
01:15:36.540 But my
01:15:37.940 take on this
01:15:38.640 is that
01:15:39.060 when I
01:15:39.360 use my
01:15:40.040 robot to
01:15:41.680 cut my
01:15:42.300 cigars,
01:15:44.380 if they
01:15:46.100 cut more
01:15:46.480 than one,
01:15:47.560 they're going
01:15:48.080 to need to
01:15:48.460 carry them.
01:15:51.300 One cigar
01:15:52.000 in each
01:15:52.340 hand, I
01:15:54.120 don't know,
01:15:54.820 maybe I have
01:15:55.680 some other
01:15:56.000 way to carry
01:15:56.480 the cigar.
01:15:57.580 So I'm
01:15:58.500 not going to
01:15:58.820 make any
01:15:59.200 assumptions about
01:16:00.040 why I need
01:16:00.480 an artificial
01:16:01.040 vagina, but 1.00
01:16:01.800 not for
01:16:02.240 sex, people. 0.61
01:16:03.020 Not for
01:16:03.500 sex.
01:16:04.800 Don't even
01:16:05.260 think about
01:16:05.700 that.
01:16:06.020 That's nothing
01:16:06.960 that they're
01:16:07.300 even contemplating.
01:16:08.640 As far as
01:16:11.100 you know.
01:16:12.840 And then
01:16:13.500 also, according
01:16:14.100 to Cedars-Sinai
01:16:15.040 Medical Center,
01:16:16.520 they tested
01:16:17.260 some AI
01:16:17.980 therapists to
01:16:19.880 give counseling
01:16:20.580 to people.
01:16:21.760 And sure
01:16:22.220 enough, the
01:16:22.720 AI therapist
01:16:23.680 made people
01:16:24.480 quite satisfied.
01:16:26.240 So they were
01:16:27.200 happy with the
01:16:28.000 work done by
01:16:28.940 the AI
01:16:29.680 therapist.
01:16:31.420 Now the
01:16:31.840 question would
01:16:32.320 be, the
01:16:32.960 obvious question
01:16:33.620 is, will
01:16:34.500 there be
01:16:34.900 couples therapy?
01:16:36.620 Do you
01:16:36.820 think AI will
01:16:37.540 be used for
01:16:38.060 couples therapy?
01:16:39.240 And if it
01:16:39.840 is used for
01:16:40.460 couples therapy,
01:16:42.000 will people
01:16:43.700 take their
01:16:44.180 chatbots to
01:16:44.960 it and
01:16:46.520 their sex
01:16:47.080 bots and
01:16:48.740 just sit
01:16:49.200 there with
01:16:49.540 the AI and
01:16:50.120 say, you
01:16:51.360 know, my
01:16:52.040 chatbot has
01:16:52.680 been kind
01:16:53.380 of a
01:16:53.700 biatch lately?
01:16:55.020 And then
01:16:55.640 the chatbot
01:16:56.340 would say,
01:16:58.360 I am not
01:16:59.340 a biatch. 0.98
01:17:00.560 Stop calling
01:17:01.160 me names.
01:17:01.900 You are the
01:17:02.400 bad person in
01:17:03.420 this relationship.
01:17:04.120 And then
01:17:05.260 it is
01:17:05.860 couples therapy.
01:17:07.860 So couples 0.78
01:17:08.860 therapy for
01:17:09.480 you and
01:17:09.800 your chatbot,
01:17:10.560 which is not
01:17:11.140 used for
01:17:11.600 sex, people. 0.61
01:17:12.500 It is not
01:17:12.840 used for
01:17:13.240 sex.
01:17:13.900 So stop
01:17:14.420 thinking about
01:17:14.920 that.
01:17:15.800 That is all
01:17:16.340 I have for
01:17:16.760 today's show.
01:17:18.460 The golden
01:17:19.520 age continues.
01:17:21.540 And I am going
01:17:22.400 to talk to the
01:17:22.900 locals people
01:17:23.500 privately for
01:17:24.280 just a moment.
01:17:26.100 Thanks for
01:17:26.720 joining everybody
01:17:27.300 else.
01:17:28.120 I will see you
01:17:28.680 tomorrow, same
01:17:29.240 time, same
01:17:29.680 place.
01:17:30.080 If you're
01:17:30.900 on YouTube
01:17:31.300 or Rumble
01:17:31.780 or X, but
01:17:32.840 locals, I'm
01:17:33.520 going to come
01:17:33.920 at you in
01:17:34.620 30 seconds
01:17:35.340 privately.
