Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2738 CWSA 02⧸02⧸25

00:00:00.000 and even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains.

00:00:03.960 All you need for that is a cupper, mug, or a glass of tanker shells,

00:00:06.760 a stein, a canteen jug, or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:09.680 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:11.660 I like coffee.

00:00:13.320 Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day,

00:00:16.600 the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:18.000 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's about to happen now.

00:00:22.520 Go.

00:00:22.760 Well, I dare say the luckiest person watching this show

00:00:30.520 is the one who just said they're folding their laundry.

00:00:34.380 There are very few forms of entertainment that go with folding your laundry

00:00:38.300 better than this.

00:00:40.440 It's really the ultimate laundry folding show.

00:00:44.640 Well, let's talk about all the things.

00:00:46.660 We'll talk about some science, and we'll get into the politics.

00:00:49.080 I know you're waiting for it.

00:00:50.180 But apparently scientists, according to interesting engineering,

00:00:55.680 some Penn State people found out how to get the lithium out of the ground,

00:01:02.480 or out of the rocks, I guess, in a super-efficient way.

00:01:07.680 I didn't realize how hard it was to get lithium.

00:01:10.440 You got to do stuff like drain a lake and work through the brine and all that.

00:01:16.360 But apparently they've developed an electrochemical process,

00:01:20.180 which is so efficient, it could completely change the economics and the mining.

00:01:26.640 So you can imagine that the U.S., for example,

00:01:30.780 if they found this efficient way that apparently doesn't have a downside

00:01:34.560 to extracting the lithium from ore,

00:01:38.180 maybe we can do more of it in the U.S.

00:01:40.360 without the mining that kills people.

00:01:43.220 Well, as you know, refrigeration hasn't changed much in many decades.

00:01:49.560 But now there's a new breakthrough, thermogalvanic something.

00:01:56.060 Thermogalvanic refrigeration.

00:01:58.400 Now, I don't know what that is, but it sounds impressive.

00:02:01.500 And apparently it's really efficient and it's practical.

00:02:06.560 So you might see a big change in refrigeration.

00:02:09.640 That's kind of a big deal.

00:02:11.140 If you think about how much air conditioning and refrigerating add to our energy load,

00:02:18.880 imagine needing a lot less of it.

00:02:21.840 The equivalent of how much you'd save in energy, it's got to be big.

00:02:27.680 I mean, if your refrigeration cost went down by 50% for at least new stuff, pretty big.

00:02:35.880 Well, I tried to...

00:02:39.280 Oh, here's another one.

00:02:40.260 According to the brighter side, and Mario Nafal is talking about this,

00:02:45.380 so scientists now have a drug that repairs myelin.

00:02:49.660 That's the protective sheath around nerves.

00:02:52.660 Now, why is that important?

00:02:53.840 Because if you can repair myelin, you can repair MS, strokes, and brain injuries.

00:03:02.560 So you can repair nerve damage and brains.

00:03:07.480 There might be a way to fix your brain.

00:03:10.460 Because apparently that myelin repair is a big deal.

00:03:16.660 It can even restore lost vision and maybe other brain functions.

00:03:21.020 Wow.

00:03:21.220 So that's a really big deal, if it works.

00:03:26.840 So I decided to do a semi-deep dive into the California water situation.

00:03:32.520 Because I was trying to figure out,

00:03:34.400 is it really true that all it took was Trump to say,

00:03:39.240 turn that spigot,

00:03:40.420 and then suddenly California would have all kinds of water,

00:03:44.000 and we could do all the farming we want?

00:03:46.420 And is that true?

00:03:48.000 Because it doesn't feel like that could be true.

00:03:51.260 So I asked some people, and some people sent me two different threads,

00:03:55.720 which were explaining the water situation.

00:03:58.120 And here's what I've learned.

00:04:00.600 It's way too complicated for any normal person to understand.

00:04:05.520 So if I started explaining, if I understood it,

00:04:09.180 if I started explaining where the water comes from,

00:04:12.200 where it's going to,

00:04:13.720 what the downside of letting too much out for each of the different mechanisms,

00:04:18.660 so there's a whole different risk-reward for everyone,

00:04:22.340 some is owned by the government, the federal,

00:04:25.640 some is owned by the state,

00:04:27.300 some of it has some endangered fish problems,

00:04:31.040 some doesn't,

00:04:31.820 some has some potential flooding problems,

00:04:33.660 some doesn't,

00:04:34.720 sometimes they want to keep the water,

00:04:36.660 sometimes they want to use the water,

00:04:38.300 depending on what the water's for,

00:04:40.160 is it drinkable,

00:04:40.960 is it only for something else,

00:04:42.600 maybe only for irrigation.

00:04:44.920 And then there's the people who own the water rights,

00:04:47.300 and the farmers.

00:04:49.720 Here's my final word on that.

00:04:52.940 Can't tell.

00:04:54.820 There's literally no way to know.

00:04:56.940 For me, as an honest observer,

00:05:00.000 I have no idea if Trump made any difference.

00:05:02.100 I don't know if he made it worse or better.

00:05:04.760 I have no idea.

00:05:06.200 Now, a lot of well-meaning people have given me a lot of good information,

00:05:10.420 but there's way too much of it,

00:05:12.660 and it all interrelates, right?

00:05:15.080 Because if you do too much of this,

00:05:17.000 it's going to have an effect on this other thing that you didn't count on,

00:05:20.720 you know, it might flood things, you know.

00:05:23.160 See, so there's so many moving parts

00:05:25.480 that I'm convinced that even the California experts

00:05:29.160 don't actually understand their own system.

00:05:32.840 So the complexity has made it impossible to solve

00:05:35.640 because the public can't help

00:05:38.120 because we're not going to understand it.

00:05:40.040 So that's my bottom line.

00:05:43.020 It's too hard to understand,

00:05:45.100 and I'm not sure if even the experts have a grasp on it.

00:05:50.080 All right.

00:05:50.760 Well, the big news today is tariffs.

00:05:52.860 So Trump's tariffs on Canada and Mexico and China

00:05:58.580 go into effect, I guess, right now.

00:06:02.040 So Mexico and Canada will get a 25% tariff.

00:06:07.180 I think energy is not included

00:06:09.380 because we don't want to pay more for our energy.

00:06:11.960 We don't get a ton of it.

00:06:15.100 And China, 10%.

00:06:16.820 So what are they doing about it?

00:06:19.280 Well, also, Trump took the opportunity with the tariffs

00:06:26.720 to essentially say that the government of Mexico

00:06:30.440 is in bed with the cartels.

00:06:32.800 He just says it directly.

00:06:34.920 He basically just says,

00:06:36.180 yeah, cartels have been controlling the government.

00:06:38.800 Okay.

00:06:39.680 I didn't know you were supposed to say that out loud

00:06:41.680 if you're the president,

00:06:42.860 but the president did,

00:06:45.220 and I appreciate that

00:06:46.520 because it feels like that's a more honest way

00:06:48.480 to treat it.

00:06:52.080 So we'll talk about tariffs in general

00:06:55.440 and whether that's a good idea,

00:06:56.920 but let's just look at these individually.

00:06:59.440 So part of what Trump wants to do

00:07:01.820 is get these countries

00:07:03.260 to put their fentanyl situation in order.

00:07:07.360 They want China to stop producing it.

00:07:10.760 China says, we've already stopped it.

00:07:13.340 Of course, they haven't.

00:07:14.280 And we want Mexico and Canada to close their border.

00:07:19.740 I think most of it's coming from Mexico.

00:07:22.080 But here's what's happening in Mexico.

00:07:25.720 So the cartels, according to Liberty Nation News,

00:07:29.480 are already losing billions of dollars

00:07:31.980 because they lost their migrant money.

00:07:35.240 So the cartels were making money

00:07:38.100 by helping the migrants get into the United States.

00:07:41.020 When Trump shuts the border,

00:07:43.040 there's this gigantic economic engine

00:07:46.740 that just turns off.

00:07:48.220 So the cartels went from just so much money

00:07:51.140 you could barely handle it

00:07:52.960 to, uh-oh, can't pay the bills.

00:07:56.160 So what that's going to cause is,

00:07:58.200 apparently it's already happening,

00:07:59.760 the cartels are going to start fighting with each other.

00:08:02.260 So each cartel will say,

00:08:04.560 uh-oh, the only way I can make my money back,

00:08:07.580 since the border is largely closed,

00:08:10.940 is to take some business from my competitor.

00:08:14.440 So the cartels are starting to fight each other.

00:08:17.640 Does it get better than that?

00:08:20.880 Trump closes the border,

00:08:23.460 and before we even send in our military,

00:08:26.040 the cartels are already fighting with each other.

00:08:28.660 Maybe we could just watch that for a while,

00:08:30.960 see how that goes.

00:08:33.120 Anyway,

00:08:34.640 um,

00:08:35.300 so China's response to the fentanyl charge,

00:08:41.020 at least from China's foreign ministry,

00:08:43.220 was, quote,

00:08:44.420 fentanyl is America's problem.

00:08:47.720 The Chinese side has carried out

00:08:49.880 extensive antinocardial cooperation

00:08:52.660 with the United States

00:08:53.760 and achieved remarkable results.

00:08:56.560 Really?

00:08:58.220 Really?

00:08:59.660 China?

00:09:00.200 Are you telling me that no fentanyl

00:09:01.720 is coming from China?

00:09:04.900 Nobody believes that.

00:09:06.740 Right.

00:09:07.120 So it may be that they closed down

00:09:09.120 some specific dealers

00:09:10.500 or something like that,

00:09:11.640 but no.

00:09:13.240 No.

00:09:13.540 I'm sure it's all coming from China.

00:09:16.120 So I don't trust them on that.

00:09:23.200 So here,

00:09:24.500 I don't think this will have any impact on fentanyl.

00:09:27.960 Do you?

00:09:28.280 Does anybody think the tariffs

00:09:30.460 will have any impact on fentanyl?

00:09:33.240 I don't even know if the closed border

00:09:35.000 will have an effect.

00:09:36.700 You know,

00:09:36.880 the fentanyl problem is that

00:09:38.460 the entire,

00:09:39.840 uh,

00:09:40.460 size of the package

00:09:41.820 that would give a million people

00:09:44.020 an overdose

00:09:44.620 is basically

00:09:45.900 the size of a baseball.

00:09:47.560 So you can just take a baseball

00:09:49.080 and hollow it out,

00:09:50.800 throw it over the fence

00:09:51.840 anywhere you want

00:09:52.720 if you have somebody

00:09:53.760 on the other side.

00:09:54.580 And there's your entire,

00:09:56.160 you know,

00:09:56.840 a million deaths of fentanyl,

00:09:59.240 one baseball-sized container.

00:10:02.160 So I don't really see a way

00:10:04.000 to stop it

00:10:04.580 unless you murder

00:10:05.340 all of the cartel people involved

00:10:07.420 and people become too afraid

00:10:09.180 to touch it.

00:10:10.520 But we're a long way from that.

00:10:12.020 All right.

00:10:14.040 So,

00:10:14.680 here's a weird thing

00:10:16.040 about tariffs.

00:10:18.300 So I'm going to say

00:10:19.280 the oversimplified

00:10:20.660 short-term view.

00:10:22.740 And then those of you

00:10:23.580 who know a little bit more

00:10:24.400 about economics

00:10:25.160 are going to say,

00:10:25.960 but Scott,

00:10:26.860 you forgot this

00:10:28.100 and you forgot that.

00:10:29.240 I didn't forget them.

00:10:30.860 I'll mention them

00:10:31.560 in the long-term effect.

00:10:33.160 All right.

00:10:33.600 So there's a short-term

00:10:34.580 and a long-term.

00:10:36.040 Short-term,

00:10:37.960 tariff wars are weird

00:10:39.280 because it's each country

00:10:41.700 trying to tax itself

00:10:43.260 to hurt the other country

00:10:45.460 because tariffs are paid

00:10:48.420 by the importing company.

00:10:52.240 So American companies

00:10:53.300 are going to pay the tariffs.

00:10:54.780 That's just what a tariff is.

00:10:56.580 That's the only way it works.

00:10:58.680 So in the short run,

00:11:00.360 the competition will be,

00:11:02.380 can America survive

00:11:04.380 whatever retaliatory tariffs are?

00:11:07.880 Because of course it will be.

00:11:08.840 Can we survive better

00:11:10.840 than the company,

00:11:12.520 the country

00:11:12.920 that we're battling with?

00:11:14.920 Now,

00:11:15.500 if the country

00:11:17.280 with the strongest economy

00:11:18.780 is in a trade war

00:11:20.820 with a country

00:11:21.380 with a weaker economy,

00:11:23.260 I would expect

00:11:23.900 the stronger economy

00:11:25.000 to have all

00:11:25.540 of the negotiating position

00:11:26.820 and maybe

00:11:28.260 get some kind

00:11:29.800 of a deal done

00:11:30.440 because it's so one-sided.

00:11:32.220 You know,

00:11:32.380 you better just surrender.

00:11:33.240 And that's largely

00:11:35.420 the case

00:11:36.000 with two of these countries.

00:11:38.040 So right now,

00:11:39.040 Mexico exports

00:11:40.220 to the U.S.

00:11:41.340 as a percentage

00:11:42.080 of GDP

00:11:42.740 35%.

00:11:44.640 So 35%

00:11:46.300 of Mexico's GDP

00:11:47.540 is exports

00:11:48.620 to the U.S.

00:11:49.780 How much

00:11:50.500 do we export

00:11:52.020 to Mexico?

00:11:54.240 1.2%.

00:11:55.680 1.2.

00:11:57.980 So what happens

00:11:59.720 if 1.2%

00:12:01.260 of the things

00:12:01.820 we buy from Mexico

00:12:02.880 go up in price

00:12:05.100 25%?

00:12:07.320 You're not even

00:12:08.100 going to notice.

00:12:09.640 You won't even notice.

00:12:11.200 But in Mexico,

00:12:13.060 if 35%

00:12:14.840 of what drives

00:12:15.540 their GDP

00:12:16.120 suddenly had

00:12:17.380 a huge

00:12:18.540 monetary impact

00:12:20.100 on it,

00:12:20.700 they're going to notice

00:12:21.580 that right away.

00:12:23.400 So Canada

00:12:23.940 is similar.

00:12:24.420 They export

00:12:26.620 to the U.S.

00:12:27.280 22%

00:12:28.100 of their GDP,

00:12:29.480 but the things

00:12:30.560 that we export

00:12:31.420 to Canada

00:12:32.100 is 1.5%.

00:12:33.800 So when

00:12:36.460 they put

00:12:37.220 a tariff

00:12:38.020 on us,

00:12:39.480 it'll be on

00:12:40.240 such a small

00:12:41.040 little bunch

00:12:42.080 of goods

00:12:42.460 that we won't

00:12:43.000 even notice.

00:12:44.360 When we put

00:12:45.120 a tariff

00:12:45.520 on either

00:12:46.040 Canada

00:12:46.440 or Mexico,

00:12:47.700 oh,

00:12:47.900 they're going

00:12:48.180 to notice.

00:12:49.400 Yeah,

00:12:49.680 that's certainly

00:12:50.740 they're going

00:12:51.100 to notice.

00:12:51.960 And their

00:12:52.780 economies

00:12:53.420 are,

00:12:54.660 you know,

00:12:55.260 at least Canada

00:12:56.240 seems a little

00:12:57.140 weaker than

00:12:57.800 the U.S.

00:12:58.800 So it's a weaker

00:12:59.820 economy.

00:13:00.640 They don't have

00:13:01.380 the same

00:13:01.940 punchback ability

00:13:03.420 because of the

00:13:04.180 imbalance of trade.

00:13:06.080 So in theory,

00:13:07.860 it puts Trump

00:13:09.860 in charge

00:13:11.180 of the negotiations.

00:13:12.640 So that's good.

00:13:14.060 Now here's the part

00:13:14.840 that you wanted me

00:13:15.560 to say.

00:13:16.160 Some of you

00:13:16.700 are better at economics.

00:13:18.180 In the short run,

00:13:20.620 the company

00:13:22.400 that's importing

00:13:23.120 is going

00:13:23.500 to pay

00:13:23.880 the United

00:13:24.540 States

00:13:25.000 the tariff.

00:13:26.360 So it's like

00:13:26.840 a tax

00:13:27.960 on the United

00:13:28.440 States

00:13:28.840 by the United

00:13:29.520 States.

00:13:30.920 But in the

00:13:32.580 longer term,

00:13:33.740 and sometimes

00:13:34.180 it could happen

00:13:34.760 faster,

00:13:35.900 the company

00:13:36.780 that is

00:13:38.040 exporting the

00:13:39.040 goods to

00:13:39.600 America,

00:13:41.340 let's say

00:13:41.860 China,

00:13:42.880 they might just

00:13:43.700 lower the price

00:13:44.640 of their goods

00:13:45.140 a little bit,

00:13:46.440 maybe not the

00:13:47.100 full 25%,

00:13:48.120 but depending

00:13:49.080 on the margins,

00:13:49.860 I guess,

00:13:50.240 whatever kind

00:13:50.780 of profit margin

00:13:51.500 they have,

00:13:52.160 they could

00:13:52.620 take a little

00:13:53.180 of the pain

00:13:53.620 off by lowering

00:13:55.260 the cost

00:13:56.340 of the product

00:13:56.980 and then maybe

00:13:59.140 try to sell

00:13:59.660 the same amount.

00:14:01.220 But that'd be

00:14:01.740 hard because

00:14:03.240 they probably

00:14:03.980 don't have

00:14:04.300 that much

00:14:04.620 margin in

00:14:05.480 their profits.

00:14:07.360 Over time,

00:14:09.000 what the tariffs

00:14:10.700 do is it would

00:14:11.540 cause more

00:14:12.100 American companies

00:14:13.000 to make products,

00:14:14.280 maybe,

00:14:15.040 or other countries

00:14:16.500 to be a source

00:14:18.940 for those same

00:14:19.500 products.

00:14:20.640 And according

00:14:21.560 to the Wall

00:14:21.940 Street Journal,

00:14:23.700 the tariffs,

00:14:25.080 the tariff war

00:14:25.880 as it looks,

00:14:27.280 is likely to

00:14:28.320 devalue the

00:14:29.360 currency of the

00:14:30.920 companies we're

00:14:31.600 at war at,

00:14:32.260 but not the

00:14:32.700 U.S.

00:14:33.020 currency.

00:14:34.020 So in other

00:14:34.400 words,

00:14:34.780 the Mexican

00:14:35.660 peso and the

00:14:37.040 Canadian dollar

00:14:37.980 might become

00:14:39.100 worth less

00:14:39.980 compared to

00:14:42.560 the American

00:14:42.940 dollar.

00:14:43.860 So that would

00:14:44.660 be,

00:14:44.920 again,

00:14:45.560 more negotiating

00:14:47.640 power.

00:14:49.020 So you're

00:14:50.840 now the

00:14:51.240 smartest people

00:14:52.020 in this

00:14:52.460 conversation.

00:14:53.660 Because number

00:14:54.020 one,

00:14:54.380 you know that

00:14:54.940 the payment

00:14:55.640 is made,

00:14:56.900 at least

00:14:57.320 initially,

00:14:58.300 by the

00:14:58.860 same country

00:15:00.260 that puts

00:15:01.440 the tariff

00:15:01.900 on the other

00:15:02.360 country.

00:15:03.220 It's basically

00:15:04.020 a tax on

00:15:04.640 yourself.

00:15:05.660 So we're

00:15:06.180 having a

00:15:06.580 competition to

00:15:07.440 see who can

00:15:07.960 tax themselves

00:15:09.400 harder and

00:15:12.000 survive.

00:15:13.340 And because

00:15:13.660 of the imbalance

00:15:14.500 in trade,

00:15:15.420 it looks like

00:15:16.200 America has

00:15:16.760 all the cards.

00:15:18.640 And then

00:15:19.380 the second

00:15:20.460 thing you need

00:15:20.960 to know is

00:15:21.380 that the

00:15:21.660 long-term

00:15:22.340 people start

00:15:24.060 adjusting.

00:15:24.760 So the

00:15:25.360 competitive

00:15:25.840 environment

00:15:26.420 changes if

00:15:27.200 it looks like

00:15:27.660 it's going

00:15:27.960 to be a

00:15:28.180 long-term

00:15:28.580 situation.

00:15:29.440 But that's

00:15:30.080 not going

00:15:30.340 to happen

00:15:30.500 right away.

00:15:31.540 Because people

00:15:32.280 would quite

00:15:32.720 reasonably say,

00:15:33.720 this might be

00:15:34.860 temporary.

00:15:36.460 You know,

00:15:36.940 a year from

00:15:37.440 now,

00:15:38.640 or let's

00:15:39.520 say under

00:15:39.880 the next

00:15:40.280 president,

00:15:41.460 are you

00:15:41.820 really going

00:15:42.340 to have

00:15:42.860 same tariffs?

00:15:44.600 Because if

00:15:45.240 the tariffs

00:15:45.660 stay,

00:15:46.160 then some

00:15:47.340 people may

00:15:47.780 say,

00:15:48.160 aha,

00:15:48.720 that's

00:15:49.560 exactly the

00:15:50.200 advantage I

00:15:51.420 needed to

00:15:51.860 start this

00:15:52.360 manufacturing

00:15:53.500 company in

00:15:54.100 the United

00:15:54.400 States.

00:15:55.480 But here's

00:15:56.480 where I need

00:15:56.880 a fact check.

00:15:59.020 If Chinese

00:16:00.840 goods became,

00:16:02.200 let's say,

00:16:02.840 10 or 25%

00:16:04.180 more expensive,

00:16:05.480 would that

00:16:07.560 make any

00:16:08.140 difference?

00:16:08.580 because I

00:16:10.180 feel like

00:16:10.560 they have

00:16:10.900 such a

00:16:11.600 huge cost

00:16:12.620 advantage

00:16:13.220 that even

00:16:14.600 if their

00:16:15.100 costs went

00:16:15.660 up 25%,

00:16:16.520 we still

00:16:17.080 couldn't

00:16:17.360 compete

00:16:17.700 domestically.

00:16:18.680 We couldn't

00:16:19.600 make it a

00:16:20.040 factory in

00:16:20.560 the United

00:16:20.860 States that

00:16:22.100 could beat

00:16:22.660 them on

00:16:23.040 costs just

00:16:24.580 because we

00:16:25.140 raised their

00:16:25.780 costs artificially

00:16:27.000 with the

00:16:27.340 tariff.

00:16:28.280 I don't

00:16:28.760 think we're

00:16:29.080 anywhere in

00:16:29.760 the ballpark

00:16:30.460 of being

00:16:31.060 able to

00:16:31.760 repatriate

00:16:32.560 some of

00:16:33.020 these

00:16:33.180 businesses.

00:16:33.600 All right.

00:16:37.840 So we'll

00:16:38.540 see.

00:16:39.060 We will

00:16:39.440 see what

00:16:39.900 the effect

00:16:40.380 is.

00:16:41.140 I'll tell

00:16:41.560 you, I

00:16:42.960 feel like

00:16:43.360 Trump's

00:16:43.740 instinct on

00:16:44.620 this is

00:16:45.000 right because

00:16:46.720 the U.S.

00:16:47.280 has such

00:16:47.780 a negotiating

00:16:48.700 advantage that

00:16:50.240 it gives

00:16:50.680 Trump several

00:16:51.300 ways to win

00:16:51.920 and no way

00:16:52.360 to lose.

00:16:53.780 If nothing

00:16:54.640 happens, he's

00:16:55.500 going to

00:16:55.740 claim that

00:16:56.240 the tariff

00:16:57.800 payments are

00:16:58.740 free money

00:16:59.260 to the

00:16:59.580 United States.

00:17:00.720 Really just

00:17:01.520 taxing the

00:17:02.120 United States,

00:17:02.820 but okay.

00:17:04.560 So as long

00:17:05.440 as people

00:17:05.780 don't understand

00:17:06.660 it, Trump

00:17:08.640 can claim

00:17:09.160 victory.

00:17:10.280 Because we

00:17:10.940 don't know.

00:17:11.780 We're like,

00:17:12.120 I don't know.

00:17:13.160 Is it good

00:17:13.680 in the short

00:17:14.400 run, good

00:17:14.960 in the long

00:17:15.380 run?

00:17:15.820 We don't

00:17:16.120 really understand

00:17:16.720 this tariff

00:17:17.280 stuff.

00:17:18.200 So if it's

00:17:18.900 complicated, Trump

00:17:20.640 can claim

00:17:21.900 victory.

00:17:22.560 What does

00:17:23.020 that sound

00:17:23.420 like?

00:17:24.580 Is there

00:17:24.960 any other

00:17:25.500 situation in

00:17:28.420 which Trump

00:17:29.180 can claim

00:17:29.940 victory just

00:17:31.740 because you

00:17:32.320 can't tell

00:17:32.800 the difference?

00:17:34.560 Yes, the

00:17:35.480 California water

00:17:36.300 situation.

00:17:37.740 It's possible

00:17:38.780 that what

00:17:39.560 Trump did

00:17:40.080 made a big

00:17:40.560 difference and

00:17:41.280 only Trump

00:17:41.760 could do it

00:17:42.320 and it solved

00:17:43.260 a big problem.

00:17:44.680 That would be

00:17:45.480 his claim.

00:17:46.480 It's possible

00:17:47.440 that a random

00:17:49.060 change was made

00:17:50.000 and he just

00:17:50.500 took credit.

00:17:52.060 We can't tell

00:17:53.120 the difference.

00:17:54.560 So if I'm

00:17:55.100 talking about

00:17:55.680 what makes

00:17:56.180 sense from a

00:17:57.040 persuasion

00:17:58.020 perspective,

00:17:58.620 perspective, it

00:17:59.700 makes sense

00:18:00.300 for Trump

00:18:00.740 to claim

00:18:01.200 credit

00:18:01.640 whenever we

00:18:02.400 can't tell

00:18:02.940 because it's

00:18:05.740 not so much

00:18:06.320 about the

00:18:06.700 past.

00:18:08.400 It's not so

00:18:09.060 much that he

00:18:09.520 can add it to

00:18:10.420 his resume.

00:18:11.140 That part I

00:18:11.560 don't care

00:18:11.920 about.

00:18:12.660 What I care

00:18:13.420 about is it

00:18:14.080 sends a

00:18:14.580 message of

00:18:16.080 American

00:18:16.640 competence.

00:18:18.760 Look, we

00:18:19.600 figured out how

00:18:20.240 to solve this.

00:18:21.400 Look, we

00:18:21.860 figured out how

00:18:22.440 to solve that.

00:18:23.580 Look, Trump

00:18:24.240 solved another

00:18:24.900 problem.

00:18:26.280 If we can

00:18:27.080 continue to

00:18:28.600 nurture this

00:18:29.240 idea that

00:18:29.860 Trump can

00:18:30.620 solve basically

00:18:31.800 any problem,

00:18:33.400 people will

00:18:34.700 start conforming

00:18:35.980 to that.

00:18:37.080 If people

00:18:37.780 believe that

00:18:38.640 Trump will

00:18:39.140 solve their

00:18:39.700 problems,

00:18:40.600 then as soon

00:18:41.460 as he enters

00:18:42.020 the game,

00:18:43.340 everybody gets

00:18:43.900 flexible.

00:18:45.060 That's what's

00:18:45.480 happening with

00:18:45.900 Ukraine.

00:18:47.360 So until

00:18:47.920 Trump was

00:18:48.580 elected,

00:18:49.720 Ukraine was

00:18:50.500 all, oh,

00:18:51.520 we're never

00:18:51.920 going to make

00:18:52.360 peace.

00:18:52.840 We've got to

00:18:53.220 win this war.

00:18:53.900 But as

00:18:54.740 soon as

00:18:55.060 Trump's

00:18:55.380 elected,

00:18:56.920 Putin's

00:18:57.360 like, hey,

00:18:57.760 let's talk.

00:18:58.880 You know,

00:18:59.080 you wanted

00:18:59.620 to talk

00:18:59.960 anyway.

00:19:00.920 But Zelensky

00:19:01.880 is like,

00:19:02.180 yeah, yeah,

00:19:02.960 let's talk.

00:19:03.860 Let's work

00:19:04.320 this out.

00:19:05.240 I think

00:19:05.840 that's the

00:19:06.240 Trump effect.

00:19:07.420 So I'm

00:19:08.280 perfectly

00:19:08.840 okay with

00:19:10.420 Trump taking,

00:19:12.200 let's say,

00:19:13.780 a little,

00:19:15.020 taking a

00:19:16.920 little liberty

00:19:17.520 with his

00:19:19.580 statements of

00:19:20.500 success.

00:19:21.340 Because the

00:19:22.000 more you think

00:19:22.620 he is

00:19:23.000 successful,

00:19:23.540 the more

00:19:23.980 successful he

00:19:24.780 will become.

00:19:25.480 It's basically

00:19:26.200 loading him

00:19:27.480 up.

00:19:28.200 You know,

00:19:28.320 it's how the

00:19:28.660 public can

00:19:29.120 load him

00:19:29.520 with extra

00:19:30.000 energy to

00:19:30.560 get stuff

00:19:30.920 done.

00:19:31.560 If he

00:19:32.120 thinks he's

00:19:32.580 winning,

00:19:33.420 and we

00:19:33.740 treat him

00:19:34.140 like he's

00:19:34.500 winning,

00:19:35.320 and people

00:19:35.760 say he's

00:19:36.260 winning,

00:19:37.140 he's going

00:19:37.520 to do more

00:19:37.920 winning.

00:19:39.700 You know,

00:19:39.880 his energy

00:19:40.320 will be

00:19:40.700 right,

00:19:41.320 people will

00:19:42.200 conform to

00:19:42.820 it.

00:19:43.740 It's all

00:19:44.280 good.

00:19:45.300 But I don't

00:19:45.880 know if he

00:19:46.240 did anything

00:19:46.700 for California

00:19:47.420 water,

00:19:48.080 and I have

00:19:48.600 no idea how

00:19:49.180 the tariffs

00:19:49.600 are going to

00:19:49.960 shake out.

00:19:50.420 But he

00:19:51.440 will take

00:19:51.840 credit.

00:19:52.820 He will

00:19:53.120 take credit.

00:19:54.080 And that is

00:19:54.540 exactly the

00:19:56.080 right play

00:19:56.520 for a leader.

00:19:58.440 It would be

00:19:59.080 so weak if

00:19:59.780 he said,

00:20:00.160 well, we've

00:20:00.540 made these

00:20:00.880 changes, but

00:20:01.500 frankly, we

00:20:02.080 can't tell if

00:20:02.580 they work.

00:20:02.980 that might be

00:20:04.620 honest, but

00:20:06.760 I don't need

00:20:07.140 that.

00:20:09.300 I want him

00:20:10.000 to say it

00:20:10.380 worked.

00:20:10.940 If we can't

00:20:11.760 tell one way

00:20:12.380 or the other,

00:20:12.840 say it

00:20:13.120 worked.

00:20:14.700 When I

00:20:15.280 found out my

00:20:15.900 friend got a

00:20:16.520 great deal on

00:20:17.320 a wool coat

00:20:17.880 from Winners,

00:20:18.680 I started

00:20:19.480 wondering, is

00:20:20.660 every fabulous

00:20:21.740 item I see

00:20:22.420 from Winners?

00:20:23.300 Like that woman

00:20:24.280 over there with

00:20:24.960 the designer jeans.

00:20:26.240 Are those from

00:20:27.060 Winners?

00:20:27.760 Ooh, or those

00:20:28.720 beautiful gold

00:20:29.340 earrings?

00:20:30.220 Did she pay

00:20:30.640 full price?

00:20:31.540 Or that leather

00:20:32.020 tote?

00:20:32.360 Or that

00:20:32.820 cashmere

00:20:33.180 sweater?

00:20:33.760 Or those

00:20:34.100 knee-high

00:20:34.420 boots?

00:20:35.240 That dress?

00:20:36.020 That jacket?

00:20:36.700 Those shoes?

00:20:37.720 Is anyone

00:20:38.520 paying full

00:20:39.140 price for

00:20:39.700 anything?

00:20:40.680 Stop

00:20:41.160 wondering.

00:20:41.940 Start winning.

00:20:42.880 Winners find

00:20:43.680 fabulous for

00:20:44.500 less.

00:20:45.760 Anyway, at

00:20:49.160 the same time,

00:20:50.440 there's a big

00:20:51.400 change in

00:20:52.460 imports regarding

00:20:55.340 something called

00:20:56.120 de minimis

00:20:57.060 shipments.

00:20:58.780 Now, I

00:20:59.180 didn't know

00:20:59.480 this was a

00:20:59.960 thing, but

00:21:00.940 apparently, until

00:21:02.040 it was just

00:21:02.540 changed.

00:21:03.860 If you were

00:21:04.640 shipping into

00:21:05.280 the United

00:21:05.680 States something

00:21:06.400 that was worth

00:21:07.500 less than $800,

00:21:09.620 you didn't have

00:21:10.360 to go through

00:21:10.800 the same

00:21:11.280 customs and

00:21:14.180 duty payments.

00:21:17.040 So, now that

00:21:18.760 sounds like just

00:21:19.380 a good idea,

00:21:20.100 right?

00:21:20.700 If it's a

00:21:21.220 small package,

00:21:22.700 you don't want

00:21:23.480 to have every

00:21:24.040 little package,

00:21:25.060 have to go

00:21:25.520 through customs,

00:21:26.540 and just slow

00:21:27.280 everything down.

00:21:27.940 So, it seems

00:21:29.100 like a good

00:21:29.560 idea.

00:21:30.240 Let's make the

00:21:30.940 small packages

00:21:31.760 that aren't

00:21:32.840 worth much

00:21:33.300 money.

00:21:34.120 Let's just

00:21:34.640 have them

00:21:35.000 skip that

00:21:35.660 laborious

00:21:37.420 process.

00:21:38.640 Here's what

00:21:39.300 happened.

00:21:40.400 You would

00:21:40.780 not be

00:21:41.180 surprised.

00:21:42.720 China and

00:21:43.420 probably others

00:21:44.000 are gaming the

00:21:44.780 system like

00:21:45.280 crazy.

00:21:46.480 So, if they

00:21:46.860 have, let's

00:21:48.660 say, a

00:21:49.180 container full

00:21:50.600 of parts,

00:21:51.820 instead of

00:21:52.980 saying, hey,

00:21:53.520 I have one

00:21:54.080 container full

00:21:54.720 of parts,

00:21:55.220 it's worth

00:21:55.660 a million

00:21:56.440 dollars,

00:21:57.280 they will

00:21:58.500 package each

00:21:59.200 of the parts

00:21:59.800 as sub-$800

00:22:01.800 pieces, and

00:22:04.340 they'll treat

00:22:04.820 them all as

00:22:05.360 their individual

00:22:06.160 packages under

00:22:07.000 $800.

00:22:08.040 Oh, yeah,

00:22:08.720 the container is

00:22:10.100 full.

00:22:10.740 It's the same

00:22:11.240 container, except

00:22:12.580 if we put them

00:22:13.360 in individual

00:22:13.960 packages, every

00:22:15.900 one of them

00:22:16.380 skates under

00:22:16.960 the line.

00:22:18.040 So, apparently,

00:22:18.760 the Trump

00:22:20.060 administration just

00:22:20.960 put a stop to

00:22:21.620 that.

00:22:22.580 I don't know

00:22:23.120 what's replacing

00:22:23.740 it, because

00:22:24.580 you probably

00:22:24.960 do need some

00:22:25.780 way to at

00:22:27.220 least get the

00:22:27.740 little stuff

00:22:28.260 through without

00:22:28.700 all the work.

00:22:31.240 But, I guess

00:22:32.280 that was a

00:22:32.840 gigantic thing.

00:22:33.840 So, the people

00:22:34.320 who work in

00:22:34.820 that business

00:22:35.400 say, everybody

00:22:37.000 knew this was

00:22:37.660 a problem,

00:22:39.060 Trump just

00:22:39.880 fixed it, and

00:22:41.320 it's a big

00:22:41.740 deal.

00:22:42.560 We'll see.

00:22:45.220 So, Trump

00:22:46.040 apparently did

00:22:47.220 an airstrike on

00:22:48.140 ISIS in

00:22:49.060 Somalia.

00:22:50.980 There's some

00:22:51.640 ISIS planner,

00:22:52.740 I guess,

00:22:53.120 senior ISIS

00:22:54.220 attack planner.

00:22:55.840 And, Trump

00:22:56.740 says, we

00:22:57.460 will find

00:22:57.960 you and

00:22:58.280 we will

00:22:58.640 kill you.

00:22:59.600 And then, he

00:23:00.060 released the

00:23:00.640 video of what

00:23:01.380 looked like the

00:23:02.020 bombing attack

00:23:02.760 that took

00:23:03.220 out that

00:23:03.740 ISIS attack

00:23:05.980 planner.

00:23:07.140 Now, I do

00:23:08.080 like it when

00:23:09.620 Trump takes

00:23:10.200 on a leader

00:23:10.820 and makes

00:23:11.680 sure all the

00:23:12.180 other leaders

00:23:12.680 see it.

00:23:14.020 You know, I'm

00:23:14.420 talking about

00:23:14.820 ISIS leaders,

00:23:15.740 not the

00:23:17.120 European leaders.

00:23:17.840 but I

00:23:21.540 like this.

00:23:22.840 And I

00:23:23.360 like where he

00:23:24.320 says, we

00:23:24.740 will find

00:23:25.300 you.

00:23:26.580 Because the

00:23:27.220 we will

00:23:27.620 find you

00:23:28.240 part is the

00:23:29.000 only thing

00:23:29.440 that gives

00:23:29.820 the bad

00:23:30.280 guys comfort.

00:23:31.560 Well, they'll

00:23:32.000 never find

00:23:32.560 me.

00:23:33.940 And Trump's

00:23:34.640 saying, we'll

00:23:35.060 find you.

00:23:35.940 And then he

00:23:36.580 finds somebody

00:23:37.140 and he kills

00:23:37.560 them.

00:23:37.700 And you'll

00:23:40.380 probably find

00:23:40.940 some more

00:23:41.300 people and

00:23:42.380 kill them.

00:23:43.340 So the

00:23:44.080 thing that

00:23:44.640 Trump knows

00:23:45.200 he needs to

00:23:45.900 fix is the

00:23:47.600 we can find

00:23:48.360 you problem.

00:23:49.180 Everybody knows

00:23:49.940 we can kill

00:23:50.640 people.

00:23:51.560 Like, that's

00:23:52.340 no news.

00:23:53.440 It doesn't

00:23:53.800 change anybody's

00:23:54.440 thinking that

00:23:55.440 we do kill

00:23:56.060 people.

00:23:56.560 It's a war.

00:23:58.000 But if you

00:23:58.720 say we can

00:23:59.260 find you

00:23:59.720 every time,

00:24:01.140 well, that

00:24:02.380 might have

00:24:02.680 some impact

00:24:03.300 on their

00:24:03.660 leadership

00:24:04.180 transitions.

00:24:07.080 Anyway,

00:24:07.700 according to

00:24:08.720 George

00:24:09.240 Papadopoulos,

00:24:10.400 who was

00:24:10.700 posting about

00:24:11.580 this, there's

00:24:13.040 a leaked

00:24:13.540 email from

00:24:14.180 John Brennan

00:24:14.960 about the

00:24:16.420 51 intelligence

00:24:17.680 people who

00:24:18.400 signed the

00:24:19.140 letter saying

00:24:21.160 that Hunter's

00:24:22.280 laptop was

00:24:23.120 at all the

00:24:24.420 earmarks of

00:24:25.080 Russian

00:24:25.420 disinformation.

00:24:27.540 So the

00:24:27.900 actual email

00:24:28.920 that went

00:24:29.620 from a

00:24:30.440 fellow named

00:24:31.040 Michael

00:24:31.460 Morrell to

00:24:33.180 John Brennan

00:24:33.920 asking him to

00:24:34.900 sign the

00:24:35.380 document, we

00:24:36.880 actually have

00:24:37.420 the email

00:24:37.820 now.

00:24:38.980 Here's the

00:24:39.600 last line

00:24:40.320 of the

00:24:40.600 document.

00:24:41.900 So in

00:24:42.140 the document,

00:24:43.680 Brennan is

00:24:44.400 saying, oh,

00:24:44.920 this is a

00:24:45.380 good idea,

00:24:46.840 and thanks

00:24:48.000 for adding

00:24:48.460 me, I'll

00:24:49.000 sign it.

00:24:50.540 So Brennan

00:24:51.280 knew what it

00:24:51.700 was and

00:24:53.140 agreed to

00:24:53.640 sign it.

00:24:54.180 So he

00:24:54.520 wasn't an

00:24:54.960 organizer.

00:24:55.900 So Brennan

00:24:56.300 was not an

00:24:56.820 organizer, but

00:24:57.460 he was a

00:24:57.780 signer.

00:24:58.980 And here's

00:25:00.940 what Michael

00:25:02.280 Morrell said

00:25:03.140 in his very

00:25:04.080 short email

00:25:04.840 describing

00:25:06.160 describing that

00:25:06.440 he wanted

00:25:06.800 people to

00:25:07.320 sign this

00:25:07.780 thing.

00:25:08.680 He said,

00:25:09.140 quote,

00:25:09.680 trying to

00:25:10.400 give the

00:25:10.740 campaign,

00:25:11.480 meaning

00:25:11.680 Biden's

00:25:12.160 campaign,

00:25:13.060 particularly

00:25:13.440 during the

00:25:14.120 debate on

00:25:14.620 Thursday, a

00:25:15.440 talking point

00:25:16.080 to push

00:25:16.580 back on

00:25:17.440 Trump on

00:25:17.920 this.

00:25:20.160 He actually

00:25:20.920 said it

00:25:21.340 out loud.

00:25:22.360 It's in

00:25:22.980 writing that

00:25:24.260 the person

00:25:24.680 who organized

00:25:25.540 the 51

00:25:26.220 people to

00:25:28.320 sign it,

00:25:28.800 that the

00:25:31.120 point of

00:25:31.580 it was

00:25:32.140 to give

00:25:32.660 a talking

00:25:33.120 point at

00:25:33.840 the debate.

00:25:36.660 He says

00:25:37.380 it directly.

00:25:39.560 And Brennan

00:25:40.240 says, oh,

00:25:40.700 good idea,

00:25:41.700 to create a

00:25:42.900 talking point.

00:25:44.800 They knew

00:25:45.580 it wasn't

00:25:46.060 real.

00:25:47.860 Now, I'm

00:25:48.220 reading between

00:25:48.780 the lines,

00:25:49.540 all right, I

00:25:50.040 can't read

00:25:50.400 their minds,

00:25:51.340 but doesn't

00:25:52.020 that strongly

00:25:52.740 suggest they

00:25:53.560 knew exactly

00:25:54.120 what they

00:25:54.480 were doing

00:25:54.880 and it was

00:25:55.480 just a

00:25:55.840 political

00:25:56.160 talking point

00:25:56.980 and had

00:25:57.780 nothing to

00:25:58.240 do with

00:25:58.680 warning the

00:25:59.280 country about,

00:26:00.560 well, it's

00:26:01.120 our job as

00:26:02.380 experts, it's

00:26:03.840 our job to

00:26:04.480 warn the

00:26:05.040 country that

00:26:05.540 this might

00:26:06.060 be Russian

00:26:07.640 disinformation.

00:26:09.260 Might be.

00:26:11.480 So, is

00:26:13.720 that the

00:26:14.060 smoking gun?

00:26:16.040 It's right

00:26:16.960 on the edge.

00:26:18.100 You know, you

00:26:18.360 could imagine

00:26:18.860 if this went

00:26:19.420 to court in

00:26:20.120 some way,

00:26:21.240 that there'd

00:26:21.560 be some

00:26:21.920 argument that,

00:26:22.740 well, you

00:26:24.140 know, he's

00:26:24.500 just saying

00:26:24.940 there's one

00:26:25.600 use for it.

00:26:26.940 He's not

00:26:27.320 saying that

00:26:27.780 they don't

00:26:28.120 believe it.

00:26:29.520 He's just

00:26:30.200 saying one

00:26:31.140 of its

00:26:31.460 purposes would

00:26:32.320 be to help

00:26:33.760 Biden in

00:26:34.240 the debate.

00:26:36.040 So, I'm

00:26:37.760 not sure it's

00:26:38.320 a smoking

00:26:39.040 gun with

00:26:39.720 fire, but

00:26:40.580 there's a

00:26:41.560 lot of

00:26:41.760 smoke.

00:26:44.460 Anyway, so

00:26:45.300 here's my

00:26:45.680 question.

00:26:46.120 Do you think

00:26:46.460 Democrats will

00:26:47.240 ever hear that

00:26:47.740 story?

00:26:48.080 Do you think

00:26:49.800 that CNN or

00:26:50.700 MSNBC will

00:26:51.820 carry the story

00:26:52.640 about the

00:26:53.580 leaked Brennan

00:26:54.740 email that

00:26:55.980 strongly suggests

00:26:57.040 that they

00:26:57.460 knew it

00:26:57.740 was just

00:26:58.160 political

00:26:58.560 reasons?

00:27:01.140 I don't

00:27:01.760 think Democrats

00:27:02.400 will ever

00:27:02.920 hear that

00:27:03.280 story.

00:27:04.580 What do you

00:27:05.220 think?

00:27:05.820 And it will

00:27:06.380 also tell you

00:27:07.240 how controlled

00:27:08.020 they are.

00:27:09.180 I think they're

00:27:10.140 completely controlled

00:27:11.340 and that they

00:27:12.580 just are told

00:27:13.280 not to run

00:27:13.840 this story.

00:27:14.920 You can see it

00:27:15.740 on social media,

00:27:16.600 you can see it

00:27:16.980 on X, but

00:27:17.520 that's about it.

00:27:18.560 You probably

00:27:19.040 won't see it

00:27:19.480 many places.

00:27:20.000 So, let's

00:27:23.560 talk about the

00:27:24.120 Elon Musk

00:27:24.660 effect, which

00:27:25.620 is on a lot

00:27:26.360 of things

00:27:26.680 lately.

00:27:28.180 So, yesterday

00:27:29.140 or the day

00:27:30.060 before, I

00:27:31.580 posted that

00:27:33.560 Bernie Sanders

00:27:35.100 and his

00:27:37.000 treatment of

00:27:37.600 RFK Jr.

00:27:38.420 at the

00:27:38.700 confirmation

00:27:39.080 hearings made

00:27:40.200 me lose all

00:27:41.060 respect for

00:27:41.660 him.

00:27:42.800 Now, of

00:27:43.080 course, this

00:27:43.520 caused every

00:27:44.200 NPC to say,

00:27:45.840 lose respect?

00:27:47.100 Why did you

00:27:47.860 have any respect

00:27:48.620 for him in the

00:27:49.320 first place?

00:27:50.440 Let me

00:27:50.720 explain how

00:27:51.260 this works.

00:27:53.100 It's always

00:27:53.920 good to say

00:27:55.720 that you used

00:27:56.340 to respect

00:27:56.900 somebody before

00:27:57.720 you explain

00:27:59.400 why you don't

00:28:00.040 anymore.

00:28:01.240 Because it

00:28:01.840 wouldn't make

00:28:02.200 much of an

00:28:02.680 impact if I

00:28:03.340 said, I used

00:28:04.240 to not respect

00:28:05.580 him and I

00:28:06.060 still don't.

00:28:07.980 That's a

00:28:08.540 nothing.

00:28:10.380 If you say

00:28:11.200 you used to

00:28:11.760 respect him

00:28:12.420 in some way,

00:28:14.520 right, I

00:28:14.940 don't like his

00:28:15.980 policies, I've

00:28:17.520 often said that

00:28:18.380 he can't do

00:28:19.460 math.

00:28:20.000 So he

00:28:20.760 doesn't

00:28:21.000 understand how

00:28:21.620 anything fits

00:28:22.380 together.

00:28:23.240 But just in

00:28:24.080 terms of his

00:28:24.760 what I thought

00:28:25.820 was his genuine

00:28:26.760 interest in

00:28:27.780 making things

00:28:29.060 better but

00:28:29.540 didn't know

00:28:29.940 how.

00:28:30.780 So I thought,

00:28:31.160 well, there's

00:28:31.420 something to

00:28:31.880 respect in

00:28:32.460 there, that

00:28:33.500 you're working

00:28:33.980 hard to try

00:28:34.620 to make

00:28:34.860 things better.

00:28:35.420 the fact that

00:28:36.480 you don't

00:28:36.840 know the best

00:28:37.740 way to do

00:28:38.240 it is not

00:28:39.440 ideal, but

00:28:40.900 you could

00:28:41.880 like the

00:28:42.520 intention and

00:28:43.920 you could

00:28:44.220 like the

00:28:44.560 effort.

00:28:45.540 It seemed

00:28:45.980 like there

00:28:46.280 were things

00:28:46.620 that I

00:28:46.900 could respect.

00:28:47.380 And then I

00:28:50.220 changed my

00:28:50.660 mind and

00:28:51.100 said, now,

00:28:52.000 you know,

00:28:52.460 once I

00:28:52.980 saw the

00:28:54.000 what about

00:28:54.900 the onesie?

00:28:55.820 What about

00:28:56.180 the onesie?

00:28:57.560 RFK Jr., what

00:28:58.380 about the

00:28:58.680 onesie?

00:28:59.540 And I was

00:29:00.080 like, oh

00:29:00.460 my God, he's

00:29:01.560 just that

00:29:02.040 person?

00:29:03.140 So I make

00:29:03.760 that comment

00:29:04.400 and it gets

00:29:05.500 a few hundred

00:29:05.960 thousand responses.

00:29:07.720 And then a

00:29:09.660 day goes

00:29:10.060 by and

00:29:11.120 Elon Musk

00:29:11.960 comments on

00:29:13.240 it, something

00:29:15.140 kind of like

00:29:16.180 agreement, I

00:29:16.960 forget the

00:29:17.320 exact words.

00:29:18.780 So Elon

00:29:19.720 Musk comments

00:29:20.460 on it and

00:29:21.780 the last time

00:29:22.400 I checked,

00:29:22.880 it had 38

00:29:23.620 million views.

00:29:26.240 38 million

00:29:27.620 just because

00:29:30.060 Elon commented

00:29:31.000 on it.

00:29:32.180 Oh my

00:29:33.020 God.

00:29:34.720 So think

00:29:35.880 about how

00:29:36.360 important that

00:29:36.960 is in terms

00:29:37.620 of persuasion.

00:29:39.720 You've

00:29:40.360 probably noticed

00:29:40.920 that whenever

00:29:41.400 Elon comments

00:29:42.320 on anybody's

00:29:43.180 post, it

00:29:44.640 immediately goes

00:29:45.920 into the

00:29:46.320 multi-millions.

00:29:47.980 So if it's

00:29:48.920 a good post

00:29:49.680 and people

00:29:50.940 like it and

00:29:52.220 then Elon

00:29:52.700 boosts it,

00:29:53.820 you're going

00:29:54.180 to get 10

00:29:55.480 to 30

00:29:56.120 million views.

00:29:58.760 10 to

00:29:59.180 30.

00:29:59.580 That's bigger

00:30:00.380 than any

00:30:01.280 news outlet.

00:30:03.260 I mean, it's

00:30:03.560 bigger than

00:30:04.080 CNN, it's

00:30:04.860 bigger than

00:30:05.260 MSNBC.

00:30:06.320 And what's

00:30:06.840 interesting is

00:30:07.500 it puts

00:30:08.800 Elon Musk

00:30:09.640 in the

00:30:10.160 position

00:30:10.740 of

00:30:12.460 influencing

00:30:13.360 which

00:30:13.880 messages

00:30:14.360 you see

00:30:15.300 on the

00:30:16.160 side of

00:30:16.460 the

00:30:16.580 algorithm.

00:30:17.740 So the

00:30:18.100 algorithm is

00:30:18.780 deciding what

00:30:19.340 you see, which

00:30:19.900 is mostly

00:30:20.340 stuff you

00:30:20.820 want to

00:30:21.140 see, or

00:30:22.040 at least

00:30:22.260 that's what

00:30:22.600 it's trying

00:30:23.020 to do.

00:30:23.660 It's trying

00:30:24.120 to give you

00:30:24.520 more of what

00:30:25.020 you like and

00:30:25.580 less of what

00:30:26.100 you don't

00:30:26.360 like.

00:30:27.140 But Elon

00:30:27.720 is his

00:30:28.200 own

00:30:28.380 algorithm.

00:30:30.180 So when

00:30:30.640 Elon Musk

00:30:31.800 is looking

00:30:32.240 at the

00:30:33.100 posts,

00:30:33.600 like the

00:30:34.020 rest of

00:30:34.380 us, when

00:30:35.580 I boost

00:30:36.820 something, I

00:30:37.360 say to

00:30:37.640 myself, oh,

00:30:38.920 if I boost

00:30:39.560 this, I've

00:30:40.800 got 1.2

00:30:41.720 million followers

00:30:42.520 and a lot

00:30:43.960 of them are

00:30:44.340 really connected

00:30:44.980 people.

00:30:45.740 I'm like, oh,

00:30:46.620 this could make a

00:30:47.400 difference just

00:30:48.220 because I boosted

00:30:49.000 it.

00:30:49.640 But when he

00:30:50.360 boosts things,

00:30:51.680 it's like a

00:30:52.520 hundred times

00:30:53.120 bigger.

00:30:54.220 So his

00:30:55.020 ability to

00:30:55.760 influence the

00:30:57.420 national

00:30:57.820 conversation and

00:30:58.820 influence minds

00:30:59.720 is now

00:31:00.780 somewhat

00:31:02.340 unprecedented.

00:31:04.040 I would say

00:31:04.840 that only

00:31:05.480 Trump has

00:31:07.560 a sort

00:31:08.840 of a global

00:31:09.440 persuasion

00:31:10.260 powers that

00:31:11.280 are a little

00:31:11.580 bit greater

00:31:12.080 and maybe

00:31:12.920 the gap

00:31:13.340 is closing.

00:31:14.440 But boy,

00:31:14.960 you can't

00:31:15.680 overlook the

00:31:16.320 fact that

00:31:17.240 he can touch

00:31:18.060 something once

00:31:18.920 and 38

00:31:20.160 million people

00:31:21.080 will see it.

00:31:22.760 So that's

00:31:23.120 what happened

00:31:23.800 to me.

00:31:24.300 38 million

00:31:24.980 people saw

00:31:25.900 me running

00:31:27.360 Sanders into

00:31:28.720 the ground.

00:31:29.720 Meanwhile,

00:31:31.920 speaking of

00:31:32.360 CNN,

00:31:33.300 I was

00:31:33.620 watching poor

00:31:35.040 Frank Luntz.

00:31:36.280 He was on

00:31:36.840 one of the

00:31:37.340 CNN panels

00:31:38.280 where everybody

00:31:38.840 talks over

00:31:39.460 you.

00:31:40.640 So I'd like

00:31:41.120 to give my

00:31:41.520 impression of

00:31:42.120 Frank Luntz

00:31:42.840 trying to

00:31:43.520 talk on

00:31:44.540 a CNN

00:31:44.920 panel.

00:31:46.060 This is

00:31:46.460 Frank Luntz.

00:31:47.720 Well, it's

00:31:48.560 important that

00:31:49.220 you...

00:31:49.580 Okay.

00:31:54.300 Just

00:31:54.780 continuing.

00:31:55.660 It's

00:31:55.960 important that

00:31:56.920 you...

00:31:59.360 blah, blah,

00:31:59.940 blah, blah,

00:32:00.140 blah, blah,

00:32:00.260 blah.

00:32:02.000 Okay.

00:32:03.040 Are you

00:32:03.600 going to let

00:32:03.920 me talk?

00:32:05.160 I've

00:32:05.600 listened to

00:32:06.040 you.

00:32:06.640 Are you

00:32:07.060 done?

00:32:08.320 All right.

00:32:08.840 I'll

00:32:09.180 continue.

00:32:10.200 So what I

00:32:11.080 was trying

00:32:11.380 to say is

00:32:11.840 blah, blah,

00:32:12.420 blah, blah,

00:32:12.600 blah, blah,

00:32:13.140 blah, blah,

00:32:13.500 blah, blah,

00:32:13.740 blah, blah.

00:32:14.220 The whole

00:32:15.360 show is

00:32:16.540 basically

00:32:17.020 black

00:32:17.740 panelists

00:32:18.340 trying to

00:32:19.020 talk over

00:32:19.640 any white

00:32:20.280 people who

00:32:20.720 say anything

00:32:21.160 at all.

00:32:23.840 The Abby

00:32:25.540 Phillip panel,

00:32:26.600 it just

00:32:27.000 looks like

00:32:27.620 a racist

00:32:28.680 skunk

00:32:30.420 fight.

00:32:31.960 And the

00:32:32.620 white people

00:32:33.040 are just

00:32:33.340 trying to

00:32:33.720 survive.

00:32:35.880 Scott

00:32:37.400 Jennings

00:32:37.920 does the

00:32:39.540 best job

00:32:40.060 of it

00:32:40.340 because he's

00:32:40.900 completely

00:32:41.420 unflappable.

00:32:43.160 But Luntz

00:32:44.000 was getting

00:32:44.380 a little

00:32:44.680 flapped,

00:32:45.800 meaning that

00:32:46.940 he really,

00:32:47.700 really wanted

00:32:48.000 to talk

00:32:48.700 because that's

00:32:49.800 why he was

00:32:50.320 invited there.

00:32:51.480 They invited

00:32:52.220 him because

00:32:52.780 they wanted

00:32:53.380 to hear what

00:32:53.840 he had to

00:32:54.460 say.

00:32:55.220 And every

00:32:55.460 time he

00:32:55.820 tried to

00:32:56.660 talk,

00:32:57.280 blah,

00:32:57.460 blah,

00:32:57.580 blah,

00:32:57.720 blah,

00:32:58.040 blah,

00:32:58.440 blah,

00:32:58.600 blah,

00:32:58.720 blah,

00:32:58.880 blah.

00:32:59.280 You couldn't

00:32:59.640 hear a word.

00:33:01.720 So that's

00:33:02.760 basically just

00:33:03.420 a racist

00:33:04.220 kind of a

00:33:04.780 show.

00:33:05.140 Abby

00:33:05.340 Phillip is

00:33:05.880 one of the

00:33:06.300 pushers of

00:33:06.940 the fine

00:33:07.380 people hoax.

00:33:08.520 And then

00:33:09.180 she did

00:33:09.640 this,

00:33:10.520 turning

00:33:10.900 the DEI

00:33:11.720 stuff into

00:33:12.420 another

00:33:13.120 hoax.

00:33:14.380 Here's how

00:33:14.820 the hoax

00:33:15.240 works.

00:33:18.240 DEI

00:33:18.800 is being

00:33:19.900 canceled by

00:33:20.520 Trump,

00:33:21.180 and he

00:33:21.720 said some

00:33:22.180 things about

00:33:22.700 DEI.

00:33:24.420 Why does

00:33:25.160 he have to

00:33:25.540 bring race

00:33:26.020 into it?

00:33:27.740 Okay,

00:33:28.320 he didn't

00:33:28.540 bring race

00:33:29.020 into it.

00:33:30.160 DEI is

00:33:30.700 not about

00:33:31.860 race only.

00:33:32.940 It's about

00:33:33.360 diversity,

00:33:34.160 but it's a

00:33:34.840 system.

00:33:36.180 He's

00:33:36.740 talking about

00:33:38.760 the system.

00:33:39.340 But why

00:33:40.800 must he

00:33:41.220 say that

00:33:41.680 this one

00:33:42.120 pilot must

00:33:42.780 be a

00:33:43.060 DEI hire?

00:33:44.140 Never

00:33:44.420 said that.

00:33:45.420 Never

00:33:45.680 said that.

00:33:46.300 That's you

00:33:46.720 making up

00:33:47.260 something.

00:33:48.300 No,

00:33:48.840 he's not

00:33:49.280 blaming

00:33:49.560 individuals.

00:33:51.160 He's

00:33:51.640 saying that

00:33:52.000 the system

00:33:52.640 guarantees

00:33:53.760 some

00:33:54.220 incompetence,

00:33:55.100 and it

00:33:55.260 looks like

00:33:55.700 the,

00:33:56.400 at least

00:33:56.800 in the

00:33:57.100 FAA,

00:33:58.040 it looks

00:33:58.600 like their

00:33:59.000 hiring was

00:34:00.520 limited,

00:34:01.020 because they

00:34:02.240 were trying

00:34:02.540 to hire

00:34:02.860 people,

00:34:03.300 but they

00:34:03.520 couldn't get

00:34:03.900 enough who

00:34:04.320 were diverse.

00:34:04.820 So they

00:34:05.560 just were

00:34:06.080 understaffed.

00:34:07.480 And it

00:34:08.000 would seem

00:34:08.820 that understaffing

00:34:09.760 was at least

00:34:10.340 part of the

00:34:11.280 problem for

00:34:12.620 the latest

00:34:13.100 airline disaster.

00:34:14.740 Now, we

00:34:15.240 don't know all

00:34:15.700 the details.

00:34:16.440 It could turn

00:34:16.900 out that,

00:34:17.900 you know,

00:34:18.160 the big

00:34:18.780 variable is

00:34:19.420 some entirely

00:34:19.920 different thing.

00:34:20.900 But on the

00:34:21.500 surface,

00:34:22.540 it does seem

00:34:24.540 like there

00:34:25.020 were more

00:34:26.000 planes than

00:34:26.940 there were

00:34:27.400 airline

00:34:27.920 controllers for

00:34:28.800 the job,

00:34:30.480 and that's

00:34:31.000 got to make

00:34:31.980 a difference.

00:34:32.460 on one

00:34:35.640 hand, I

00:34:36.160 was thinking

00:34:36.540 that Trump

00:34:37.320 is not

00:34:37.700 doing a

00:34:38.120 good enough

00:34:38.660 job explaining

00:34:40.420 that he's

00:34:40.940 not saying

00:34:41.460 any one

00:34:42.020 person is

00:34:42.580 a DEI

00:34:43.100 hire,

00:34:43.780 because that's

00:34:44.420 a mistake.

00:34:45.620 That's just

00:34:46.000 a pure

00:34:46.240 mistake.

00:34:47.280 You don't

00:34:47.680 really know

00:34:48.400 if any one

00:34:49.520 person is

00:34:50.520 the DEI

00:34:51.180 hire problem.

00:34:52.880 You might

00:34:53.500 say that they

00:34:54.120 are a DEI

00:34:54.920 hire, but

00:34:56.820 it's sort

00:34:57.980 of a leap

00:34:58.480 to say that

00:35:00.300 therefore they're

00:35:01.080 also the

00:35:01.560 problem.

00:35:02.460 Those are

00:35:03.500 separate.

00:35:04.020 You could be

00:35:04.420 a DEI

00:35:04.920 hire who

00:35:05.340 does a

00:35:05.600 good job.

00:35:06.640 That's

00:35:07.200 probably more

00:35:08.200 common than

00:35:08.800 the other

00:35:09.180 thing.

00:35:10.400 So when

00:35:12.400 the Abby

00:35:12.880 Philip racist

00:35:14.340 kind of

00:35:15.260 treatment comes

00:35:16.220 in, remember

00:35:17.760 the thing

00:35:18.180 they're doing,

00:35:19.040 they're trying

00:35:19.480 to turn a

00:35:20.640 system complaint

00:35:21.800 that the

00:35:22.660 DEI system

00:35:23.660 creates

00:35:24.080 inefficiency

00:35:24.660 and racism,

00:35:26.560 and they're

00:35:27.120 trying to turn

00:35:27.660 it into,

00:35:28.260 why do you

00:35:28.560 not like

00:35:29.400 black people?

00:35:30.500 They're actually

00:35:31.360 doing that.

00:35:32.460 It's

00:35:33.140 basically, why

00:35:33.820 is Trump

00:35:34.680 saying bad

00:35:35.400 things about

00:35:35.860 black people?

00:35:36.460 Which has

00:35:36.760 never happened.

00:35:38.140 It just

00:35:38.700 doesn't happen.

00:35:39.780 It's just

00:35:40.140 not anything

00:35:40.680 he's ever

00:35:41.080 done or

00:35:41.660 would ever

00:35:42.040 do.

00:36:42.140 responsibly.

00:36:43.460 So, anyway, J.D.

00:36:47.900 Vance had to do

00:36:50.060 some of the

00:36:50.620 cleanup, and he

00:36:53.500 nailed it.

00:36:54.700 All right, so let

00:36:55.480 me read what J.D.

00:36:56.360 Vance said when he

00:36:57.220 was asked about this

00:36:58.040 whole DEI thing.

00:36:59.860 So he said, he was

00:37:03.300 talking to Maria

00:37:04.200 Bartiroma, and he

00:37:06.540 said, quote,

00:37:09.120 quote, there's a

00:37:09.800 direct connection

00:37:10.720 between Biden

00:37:12.200 policies on DEI

00:37:13.840 and understaffed

00:37:15.240 control towers, and

00:37:17.460 he credited Trump

00:37:18.680 for intervening.

00:37:20.240 Now, that's 100%

00:37:21.440 right, because the

00:37:23.260 way Vance described

00:37:24.380 it is not about any

00:37:25.980 individual, but that

00:37:27.900 there was a staffing

00:37:28.740 problem, and it could

00:37:30.060 be tied very directly

00:37:31.300 to the policies, which

00:37:32.660 were DEI.

00:37:33.640 That's perfect.

00:37:35.240 Now, part of me

00:37:36.940 thought, you know, I

00:37:38.060 think Trump should

00:37:38.800 treat it this way,

00:37:39.800 too.

00:37:41.120 And then I said, you

00:37:42.800 know what?

00:37:45.280 The thing that makes

00:37:46.300 Trump Trump is he

00:37:48.240 doesn't give a fuck

00:37:49.240 about what I'm

00:37:49.900 saying.

00:37:52.580 If he thinks it's a

00:37:53.840 DEI problem, and then

00:37:55.060 he says it looks like a

00:37:56.100 DEI problem, and he's

00:37:58.100 right in the sense that

00:37:59.880 Vance is explaining it,

00:38:01.100 not in the sense that

00:38:01.980 any one individual is

00:38:03.200 the problem, I think

00:38:05.660 he could just drop it

00:38:06.600 and walk away, and

00:38:07.940 then let Vance clean

00:38:08.940 it up, let the news

00:38:09.840 clean it up, let other

00:38:11.300 people add the nuance.

00:38:13.280 I like it when Trump

00:38:14.380 just drops the shit

00:38:15.560 right in the middle of

00:38:17.000 their cocktail party,

00:38:19.380 and then they have to

00:38:20.680 deal with it.

00:38:22.040 I like that.

00:38:24.360 If he didn't have

00:38:25.860 good explainers around

00:38:27.780 him that can say what

00:38:29.940 it really means, then

00:38:31.440 maybe not.

00:38:32.920 But this one-two

00:38:33.980 punch of Trump

00:38:36.180 loosens up the room,

00:38:38.520 and then J.D. Vance

00:38:39.720 comes in and just

00:38:40.640 owns the room, I

00:38:42.760 like it.

00:38:44.360 Trump shakes the

00:38:45.340 box, J.D. Vance

00:38:47.400 comes in and puts it

00:38:48.320 back in order, in a

00:38:49.940 new way, you know, a

00:38:51.380 new order, not the

00:38:52.180 old order.

00:38:53.320 Very good, one-two

00:38:54.340 punch.

00:38:56.140 So we'll see if

00:38:57.300 anything changes on

00:38:58.380 that messaging.

00:39:00.180 Well, what we do

00:39:01.080 know now is that the

00:39:02.540 Black Hawk helicopter

00:39:04.580 had three pilots.

00:39:05.600 The one that we

00:39:06.180 didn't hear about for

00:39:07.020 a while is the only

00:39:08.540 female pilot.

00:39:09.680 Do we think that

00:39:10.740 that's the reason we

00:39:11.700 didn't hear about it?

00:39:13.240 Well, the speculation,

00:39:14.680 which is pure

00:39:15.440 speculation, and very

00:39:17.020 unfair, you know,

00:39:19.280 within the close

00:39:21.480 proximity of the

00:39:22.600 actual disaster,

00:39:23.420 because the family is

00:39:25.420 recovering slowly,

00:39:28.120 et cetera.

00:39:30.500 But the questions

00:39:33.120 being asked are,

00:39:34.640 is the reason there

00:39:35.440 was a delay so that

00:39:37.300 social media could be

00:39:38.440 scrubbed?

00:39:39.840 Because there are some

00:39:40.940 photos that people

00:39:41.860 found that show the

00:39:44.920 female pilot in the

00:39:47.320 smiling company of a

00:39:48.700 group of people who

00:39:49.580 appear to be all

00:39:50.520 LGBTQ, which would

00:39:53.140 suggest it's less

00:39:55.280 likely that she was

00:39:56.140 the only, you know,

00:39:57.360 straight white woman

00:39:58.360 in the LGBT group

00:39:59.900 because they were

00:40:00.560 posing for a picture.

00:40:02.280 It seems a little

00:40:03.120 more likely she was

00:40:04.160 part of that group,

00:40:04.960 but we don't know

00:40:05.720 that.

00:40:06.660 Now, would that

00:40:07.620 change my opinion?

00:40:09.100 If I found out that

00:40:10.980 she was hired in

00:40:13.920 part because she's a

00:40:15.040 lesbian, which, by the

00:40:16.500 way, is not

00:40:17.000 confirmed at all, I

00:40:19.220 don't know that that

00:40:19.680 would change my

00:40:20.160 opinion.

00:40:22.080 Is there anybody here

00:40:23.000 who thinks a lesbian

00:40:23.760 can't fly a helicopter?

00:40:26.380 I don't think that's

00:40:27.320 a thing, is it?

00:40:29.840 I see no reason that

00:40:31.160 you can't have the

00:40:31.860 best pilots in the

00:40:32.940 world be lesbians.

00:40:35.460 Why not?

00:40:36.940 So, again, I

00:40:39.980 wouldn't focus on

00:40:40.920 her, but there is

00:40:42.680 some question of

00:40:43.380 whether they cleaned

00:40:44.240 up her situation so

00:40:46.100 it wouldn't look like

00:40:47.000 it was the problem,

00:40:47.760 which I wouldn't

00:40:48.860 mind, you know.

00:40:50.240 If the family wants

00:40:51.220 to, you know, just

00:40:52.820 stay under the

00:40:53.440 limelight on this

00:40:54.280 because it's not

00:40:54.820 really a limelight they

00:40:55.700 want to be a part of,

00:40:56.960 I'd respect that.

00:40:58.100 I respect the family's

00:40:59.320 wishes, but I'll just

00:41:01.280 say that the

00:41:02.000 conversation is out

00:41:02.980 there.

00:41:03.560 I don't think it's

00:41:04.100 useful.

00:41:05.200 I just don't think

00:41:06.100 it's useful.

00:41:07.400 We should let that

00:41:08.200 go.

00:41:09.320 Let the family just

00:41:10.400 deal with their

00:41:10.940 situation.

00:41:11.420 So MSNBC talking

00:41:16.740 about the firings of

00:41:17.960 all the senior FBI

00:41:19.380 people who were in

00:41:21.580 some way involved with

00:41:22.820 law-faring Trump or

00:41:24.340 the January 6th stuff.

00:41:27.160 And here's what Andy

00:41:28.540 Weissman said as he

00:41:31.040 was bleeding, B-L-E-A-T,

00:41:34.440 bleat like a sheep.

00:41:35.540 He said that the

00:41:39.940 FBI agents who got

00:41:41.820 fired could sue

00:41:43.380 Trump because there's

00:41:46.620 no cause for the

00:41:47.700 firing and they can

00:41:49.200 only be fired for

00:41:50.160 cause.

00:41:52.300 To which I say,

00:41:53.800 what do you mean

00:41:54.660 there was no cause?

00:41:56.260 No cause?

00:41:57.660 Are you telling me

00:41:58.700 that hunting

00:41:59.260 Republicans is not

00:42:00.440 cause for removal

00:42:01.740 by a Republican?

00:42:03.020 I can't think of

00:42:06.000 a better cause.

00:42:07.240 What would you have

00:42:08.120 to do that would be

00:42:08.800 worse than that?

00:42:09.900 They hunted

00:42:10.620 Republicans.

00:42:12.000 They hunted

00:42:12.780 them.

00:42:13.680 They hunted

00:42:14.340 Republicans.

00:42:16.760 In the real world.

00:42:17.980 I'm not making that

00:42:18.700 up.

00:42:18.940 They hunted them.

00:42:19.860 They hunted them

00:42:20.900 for political

00:42:21.840 purposes.

00:42:22.960 I don't think any

00:42:23.920 of them really

00:42:24.440 thought that putting

00:42:25.480 grandma in jail

00:42:26.360 because she

00:42:26.900 trespassed was

00:42:28.140 making the country

00:42:28.900 a safer place.

00:42:29.980 Not one of them

00:42:30.740 thought that.

00:42:31.740 But why did they

00:42:32.380 do it?

00:42:33.460 Why were they

00:42:33.940 doing it if they

00:42:35.240 knew it wouldn't

00:42:35.660 make the country

00:42:36.220 safer?

00:42:38.080 Why?

00:42:39.220 Well, obviously

00:42:40.080 political reasons.

00:42:41.460 So if you're in

00:42:42.200 the FBI and

00:42:43.020 you're putting

00:42:43.640 people in jail

00:42:44.340 for political

00:42:45.000 reasons and

00:42:45.780 it's one side

00:42:46.520 only, yeah,

00:42:48.760 that's a firing

00:42:49.720 offense.

00:42:50.840 That's a super

00:42:51.740 firing offense.

00:42:52.680 Now you might

00:42:53.040 say to me,

00:42:54.040 but Scott,

00:42:54.960 many of them

00:42:56.080 didn't have a

00:42:56.560 choice.

00:42:57.460 They were assigned

00:42:58.500 it and they

00:42:59.440 were just doing

00:43:00.360 their job.

00:43:01.200 To which I say,

00:43:02.240 I don't care.

00:43:03.460 If you were

00:43:04.240 assigned to

00:43:04.860 murder somebody

00:43:05.660 and murder

00:43:06.540 was illegal,

00:43:07.680 it is by the

00:43:08.340 way, it's

00:43:08.860 totally illegal,

00:43:09.840 and you

00:43:10.540 murdered somebody,

00:43:11.300 would I say,

00:43:11.760 well, it was

00:43:12.120 just an

00:43:12.480 assignment?

00:43:13.380 No.

00:43:13.760 So if you're a

00:43:15.160 member of the

00:43:15.580 FBI and you're

00:43:17.080 hunting one

00:43:17.740 group of

00:43:18.200 Americans for

00:43:18.920 political reasons,

00:43:19.740 you don't think

00:43:20.340 you know that?

00:43:21.420 You think you

00:43:22.040 would be unaware

00:43:22.680 that what you're

00:43:23.460 doing should put

00:43:24.880 you in jail?

00:43:25.680 I don't think it'll

00:43:26.560 put anybody in

00:43:27.160 jail, but it's

00:43:29.560 bad enough.

00:43:31.220 So no, I have

00:43:32.320 no sympathy for

00:43:33.380 anybody who took

00:43:34.200 the assignment as

00:43:35.560 opposed to

00:43:36.080 quitting.

00:43:37.200 Now, it's a

00:43:38.040 tough choice.

00:43:39.320 I get it.

00:43:40.240 In the real

00:43:40.760 world, people

00:43:41.240 don't quit.

00:43:42.320 They need their

00:43:42.860 jobs.

00:43:43.940 You know, you

00:43:44.180 don't want to

00:43:44.500 ruin your whole

00:43:45.020 career over this

00:43:45.860 because you really

00:43:46.360 can't get it back

00:43:47.100 if you turned into

00:43:48.140 a whistleblower,

00:43:48.900 you're dead.

00:43:49.860 But that's also

00:43:50.960 not my problem.

00:43:52.560 It's not my

00:43:53.440 problem that they

00:43:54.240 couldn't say no

00:43:55.000 if they wanted to.

00:43:57.020 And I don't even

00:43:57.540 think they wanted

00:43:58.100 to.

00:43:58.720 I suspect that they

00:43:59.760 wanted to do it,

00:44:00.740 but we don't know

00:44:01.440 if that's true of

00:44:02.520 all of them.

00:44:05.740 I didn't remember

00:44:06.740 this, but I was

00:44:07.660 reminded that I

00:44:08.920 guess Kash Patel

00:44:09.920 and Pam Bondi

00:44:10.760 both said during

00:44:12.340 the confirmation

00:44:12.880 process that they

00:44:14.060 wouldn't fire

00:44:15.140 people who were

00:44:16.640 associated with

00:44:17.360 these activities,

00:44:18.280 the January 6th

00:44:19.100 in the law

00:44:19.800 fair, I guess.

00:44:21.340 And both of them

00:44:22.260 said they wouldn't,

00:44:23.760 but neither of

00:44:24.820 them are confirmed.

00:44:26.760 So the acting

00:44:27.920 heads are doing

00:44:29.980 the firing.

00:44:31.700 Now, do you

00:44:32.960 think that the

00:44:33.660 Democrats are

00:44:34.540 now, let's

00:44:36.960 say, unhappy

00:44:38.340 with dragging

00:44:39.520 out the process?

00:44:41.640 You realize that

00:44:42.680 if the Democrats

00:44:43.480 had said, wait,

00:44:44.440 okay, you're not

00:44:45.000 going to fire

00:44:45.360 these people?

00:44:46.260 Okay, let's

00:44:47.200 vote right now.

00:44:47.840 All our

00:44:48.980 questions are

00:44:49.480 answered.

00:44:50.220 Let's get it

00:44:50.840 over with.

00:44:51.940 What would

00:44:52.400 have happened

00:44:52.940 if Kash Patel

00:44:54.480 and Pam

00:44:54.900 Bondi had

00:44:55.440 both immediately

00:44:56.660 been approved

00:44:57.680 after saying

00:44:59.220 in public

00:45:00.240 that they

00:45:01.620 wouldn't do

00:45:01.960 this?

00:45:02.800 I feel like

00:45:03.560 they wouldn't

00:45:03.880 do it

00:45:04.320 because they'd

00:45:05.880 be trapped

00:45:06.340 with what they

00:45:07.220 said.

00:45:07.860 I mean, maybe

00:45:08.480 Trump would

00:45:09.160 force them to

00:45:09.720 somehow.

00:45:10.060 know, but

00:45:11.240 it's hard

00:45:12.400 for me to

00:45:13.600 take their

00:45:13.960 complaints

00:45:14.400 seriously

00:45:14.960 when the

00:45:16.100 people who

00:45:16.500 said they

00:45:16.820 wouldn't do

00:45:17.300 it are being

00:45:17.760 held up by

00:45:18.280 the people

00:45:18.820 who want

00:45:20.220 it to be

00:45:20.760 not done.

00:45:21.600 So I

00:45:24.700 told you

00:45:25.020 yesterday that

00:45:25.600 the Treasury

00:45:26.260 Department,

00:45:27.820 which is

00:45:28.460 essentially the

00:45:29.440 one writing

00:45:29.940 the checks,

00:45:31.520 if I have

00:45:32.320 that right,

00:45:33.420 so they

00:45:33.980 write checks

00:45:34.880 for the

00:45:35.180 government to

00:45:35.940 pay everything

00:45:37.220 that the

00:45:37.580 government needs

00:45:38.140 to pay.

00:45:39.260 I don't know

00:45:39.920 if that's

00:45:40.220 exactly true,

00:45:40.980 but for our

00:45:41.800 purposes today,

00:45:42.780 let's say it

00:45:43.300 is.

00:45:44.440 And you

00:45:46.300 heard that

00:45:46.740 the highest

00:45:47.980 ranking Treasury

00:45:48.760 official,

00:45:49.560 this guy named

00:45:50.160 David Lebrick,

00:45:51.860 he resigned

00:45:52.480 rather than

00:45:53.220 comply with

00:45:53.820 the request

00:45:54.260 from Doge

00:45:54.820 for access

00:45:55.420 to audit it.

00:45:57.140 So all they

00:45:57.680 wanted was

00:45:58.100 access to the

00:45:58.800 system so they

00:45:59.440 could see what

00:45:59.940 was spent

00:46:00.400 where,

00:46:01.340 and the guy

00:46:01.840 who was in

00:46:02.340 charge quit.

00:46:05.140 He quit.

00:46:06.780 Now keep in

00:46:07.440 mind that Doge

00:46:08.220 is completely

00:46:09.560 authorized by

00:46:10.940 the elected

00:46:12.580 government of

00:46:13.260 the United

00:46:13.520 States.

00:46:15.320 And he was

00:46:16.020 just not

00:46:16.420 going to help,

00:46:17.420 so he quit.

00:46:18.560 Well, that

00:46:18.900 looks as

00:46:19.340 suspicious as

00:46:20.200 anything could

00:46:20.880 look.

00:46:22.020 And then

00:46:22.360 Musk says

00:46:23.040 about this

00:46:23.500 that the

00:46:23.880 Doge team,

00:46:25.260 when they

00:46:25.960 got into

00:46:26.380 the Treasury

00:46:27.080 Department

00:46:27.460 system,

00:46:28.460 or even

00:46:29.100 before,

00:46:30.040 he says

00:46:30.440 the team

00:46:31.020 discovered,

00:46:31.580 among other

00:46:31.920 things,

00:46:32.400 that payment

00:46:32.840 approval officers

00:46:33.940 at Treasury

00:46:34.640 were instructed

00:46:35.900 always to

00:46:36.700 approve payments

00:46:38.280 even to

00:46:39.420 known fraudulent

00:46:40.360 or terrorist

00:46:41.020 groups.

00:46:43.260 Now, some

00:46:44.480 of the

00:46:44.700 payments to

00:46:45.400 terrorist

00:46:46.100 groups may

00:46:48.420 have been

00:46:48.880 some strategic

00:46:49.840 play that

00:46:50.760 the CIA was

00:46:52.180 trying to get

00:46:53.540 one terrorist

00:46:54.120 group to kill

00:46:54.700 the other

00:46:55.060 terrorist group,

00:46:56.000 so maybe

00:46:57.620 there's some

00:46:58.020 reasons for it.

00:46:59.460 But apparently

00:47:00.520 they were just

00:47:00.980 told, nope,

00:47:01.660 don't judge

00:47:02.340 them, just

00:47:03.580 approve them.

00:47:04.540 Now, what

00:47:04.960 happens when

00:47:05.540 you have a

00:47:06.000 payment system

00:47:06.800 in which there

00:47:07.720 are no checks

00:47:08.380 and balances?

00:47:10.120 It's out of

00:47:10.840 control.

00:47:12.380 Is it

00:47:13.020 possible that

00:47:13.660 Democrats

00:47:14.120 don't know

00:47:14.660 that?

00:47:15.660 That if you

00:47:16.700 don't have

00:47:17.060 somebody controlling

00:47:17.880 every dollar,

00:47:18.740 it will all

00:47:19.640 get stolen?

00:47:20.800 Or is that

00:47:21.740 exactly the

00:47:22.380 plan?

00:47:23.560 To have the

00:47:24.140 least amount

00:47:24.900 of checking

00:47:25.380 so you can

00:47:26.240 have the

00:47:26.480 most amount

00:47:26.920 of theft?

00:47:27.840 It looks

00:47:28.220 like that.

00:47:29.680 One of the

00:47:30.100 things Musk

00:47:31.480 is saying

00:47:31.920 about the

00:47:32.520 doge

00:47:32.840 effort is

00:47:33.860 that they

00:47:34.800 work on

00:47:35.240 weekends,

00:47:35.680 it's like

00:47:36.840 a superpower

00:47:37.960 over people

00:47:38.980 who don't

00:47:39.280 work on

00:47:39.640 weekends.

00:47:41.060 And I

00:47:41.880 got to tell

00:47:42.340 you, I've

00:47:43.660 worked weekends

00:47:44.480 my entire

00:47:45.320 career, my

00:47:46.660 adult life, I've

00:47:47.580 always worked

00:47:48.020 weekends, and

00:47:49.500 it is a

00:47:50.520 superpower.

00:47:52.020 And also

00:47:52.860 getting up

00:47:53.400 earlier and

00:47:54.560 sleeping less.

00:47:55.620 I've had the

00:47:56.400 equivalent of

00:47:57.060 basically three

00:47:57.920 lives.

00:47:59.140 Well, many of

00:48:00.060 you have

00:48:00.380 had two.

00:48:02.040 Now, you

00:48:02.600 might have

00:48:02.900 enjoyed your

00:48:03.520 one or two

00:48:05.100 lives, but

00:48:05.680 more than

00:48:06.560 my three.

00:48:07.320 I don't

00:48:07.560 know, it's

00:48:08.000 hard to

00:48:08.300 compare, but

00:48:09.420 I've lived the

00:48:10.560 equivalent of

00:48:11.140 three lives, and

00:48:12.840 I feel it.

00:48:14.060 I feel like I've

00:48:14.880 had three lives

00:48:16.100 running

00:48:16.600 simultaneously.

00:48:18.240 So, every

00:48:18.900 once in a

00:48:19.240 while, it's

00:48:19.880 very rare,

00:48:21.380 something happens

00:48:22.140 where I would

00:48:22.600 wake up late,

00:48:24.500 it just ruins

00:48:25.080 my whole day,

00:48:26.300 because I feel

00:48:26.900 like I didn't

00:48:27.360 get anything

00:48:27.740 done.

00:48:28.220 I don't

00:48:28.480 know how

00:48:28.660 you do

00:48:28.880 it.

00:48:41.980 Scotiabank,

00:48:42.740 you're richer

00:48:43.200 than you

00:48:43.540 think.

00:48:45.080 Anyway, how

00:48:46.880 many of you

00:48:47.500 know what

00:48:48.500 USAID is?

00:48:50.320 The organization

00:48:51.560 in the government

00:48:52.240 called USAID,

00:48:53.920 USAID.

00:48:56.280 Now, wouldn't

00:48:56.820 you think that

00:48:58.560 if there were

00:48:58.960 some big,

00:48:59.680 well-funded

00:49:00.180 organization with

00:49:01.140 that name in

00:49:01.900 our government,

00:49:02.720 that they would

00:49:03.520 be giving aid to

00:49:04.600 other countries

00:49:05.240 from the

00:49:06.340 U.S., or

00:49:07.500 maybe you'd

00:49:08.000 even think

00:49:08.420 it's for

00:49:08.780 the U.S.,

00:49:09.580 because it's

00:49:09.980 the U.S.,

00:49:10.700 it's got aid

00:49:11.520 in it.

00:49:12.780 But the

00:49:13.760 AID is not

00:49:14.580 aid, it's

00:49:15.460 something else.

00:49:16.800 And according

00:49:17.720 to Mike

00:49:18.120 Benz, USAID

00:49:20.200 is how the

00:49:20.640 State Department

00:49:21.240 and the CIA

00:49:21.980 topple

00:49:22.540 governments

00:49:23.080 through something

00:49:24.260 called capacity

00:49:25.280 building.

00:49:26.340 So if you

00:49:27.000 want to

00:49:27.280 understand how

00:49:27.880 the real

00:49:28.220 world works,

00:49:29.440 here's a term

00:49:30.140 you have to

00:49:30.600 understand,

00:49:32.060 capacity

00:49:32.600 building.

00:49:34.520 The way that

00:49:35.320 works is if

00:49:35.980 the United States

00:49:36.620 wants to

00:49:37.060 overthrow some

00:49:37.860 smaller country,

00:49:39.260 we first

00:49:40.620 use this

00:49:41.140 USAID thing

00:49:42.100 to fund a

00:49:43.920 bunch of

00:49:44.220 things in

00:49:44.640 that target

00:49:45.360 country that

00:49:46.820 will make it

00:49:47.240 easier to

00:49:47.660 overthrow it.

00:49:48.920 So they

00:49:50.040 might fund

00:49:50.740 some fake

00:49:51.900 groups that

00:49:52.820 are opposed

00:49:53.220 to the

00:49:53.460 government.

00:49:54.760 They might

00:49:55.600 back some

00:49:58.120 street

00:49:58.600 muscle.

00:49:59.580 So apparently

00:50:00.020 street

00:50:00.600 muscle is

00:50:01.640 important to

00:50:02.280 overthrowing any

00:50:03.040 country.

00:50:04.060 If they have

00:50:04.580 big unions,

00:50:05.720 then you use

00:50:07.160 your money to

00:50:07.940 bribe or

00:50:08.780 control the

00:50:09.840 unions and

00:50:10.380 they become

00:50:10.740 your street

00:50:11.180 muscle.

00:50:11.800 If you

00:50:12.280 don't have

00:50:12.640 big unions,

00:50:13.740 you try

00:50:14.300 green people

00:50:16.700 or Antifa

00:50:18.140 or communists

00:50:20.100 or somebody.

00:50:20.680 You have to

00:50:21.240 find some

00:50:21.620 street muscle.

00:50:22.500 That's

00:50:22.700 important.

00:50:23.940 So you've

00:50:24.300 got your

00:50:25.040 NGOs,

00:50:27.160 your various

00:50:27.660 organizations

00:50:28.380 that are

00:50:28.760 working against

00:50:29.380 the target

00:50:29.840 company.

00:50:30.700 And there

00:50:30.900 might be

00:50:31.160 like lots

00:50:31.680 of them.

00:50:32.520 And then

00:50:33.040 you've got

00:50:33.560 the street

00:50:35.040 muscle.

00:50:35.800 And then

00:50:36.020 of course,

00:50:36.600 we would

00:50:38.020 have to

00:50:38.300 control the

00:50:38.780 media.

00:50:40.160 So we'd

00:50:40.800 have to

00:50:41.040 control the

00:50:41.460 media.

00:50:41.980 So the

00:50:42.240 media says,

00:50:43.580 if it's not

00:50:44.300 controlled by

00:50:44.840 the dictator,

00:50:46.120 but at least

00:50:47.280 the social

00:50:47.700 media so

00:50:48.960 that there's

00:50:49.340 a story

00:50:50.120 against

00:50:50.620 whoever's

00:50:51.200 in charge.

00:50:53.240 And so

00:50:55.440 that's kind

00:50:56.200 of the deal.

00:50:56.640 So that's

00:50:57.840 called

00:50:58.080 capacity

00:50:58.700 building.

00:50:59.740 I'm doing

00:51:00.080 a bad

00:51:00.420 job of

00:51:00.820 explaining it.

00:51:01.880 Capacity

00:51:02.260 building means

00:51:02.900 creating

00:51:03.500 permanent or

00:51:05.540 semi-permanent

00:51:06.420 things in

00:51:07.000 another country

00:51:07.720 for the

00:51:09.100 purpose of

00:51:09.660 taking them

00:51:10.180 over.

00:51:11.080 And apparently

00:51:11.460 we do it

00:51:11.980 really well.

00:51:13.040 And apparently

00:51:13.440 it was done

00:51:13.940 against the

00:51:14.480 United States

00:51:15.120 by some

00:51:17.400 of the same

00:51:17.780 players.

00:51:18.500 They just

00:51:18.860 turned it

00:51:19.260 inward and

00:51:19.920 tried to

00:51:21.240 control a

00:51:21.700 lot of the

00:51:21.960 United States.

00:51:22.400 So the

00:51:23.940 NGOs, I

00:51:26.480 guess there

00:51:26.800 are just

00:51:27.040 thousands of

00:51:27.760 them and

00:51:28.520 they're

00:51:28.740 interconnected

00:51:29.580 so you

00:51:30.160 can't tell

00:51:30.500 where the

00:51:30.780 money is

00:51:31.140 flowing.

00:51:32.040 It's like

00:51:32.400 you might

00:51:32.700 give money

00:51:33.140 to one

00:51:33.520 NGO whose

00:51:35.080 job is to

00:51:35.780 distribute to

00:51:36.420 other NGOs

00:51:37.100 and then some

00:51:38.640 of them

00:51:38.860 distribute to

00:51:39.500 other NGOs.

00:51:40.780 So you

00:51:41.340 can't even

00:51:41.660 tell where

00:51:41.940 the money is

00:51:42.360 going, which

00:51:43.560 apparently is

00:51:44.300 intentional.

00:51:45.340 So you

00:51:45.780 have this

00:51:46.080 vast amount

00:51:47.180 of money

00:51:48.480 controlled by

00:51:49.500 the State

00:51:49.920 Department

00:51:50.320 and the

00:51:50.680 CIA that

00:51:52.280 goes through

00:51:52.680 this USAID

00:51:53.500 thing, which

00:51:53.920 is allegedly

00:51:55.040 a legitimate

00:51:55.740 outfit, but

00:51:56.760 it's about

00:51:57.880 overthrowing

00:51:58.640 countries,

00:51:59.180 including

00:51:59.480 America.

00:52:00.900 And it

00:52:03.120 looks like

00:52:03.500 the whole

00:52:03.740 thing is

00:52:04.000 just going

00:52:04.320 to go

00:52:04.540 away.

00:52:05.800 So half

00:52:06.820 of the

00:52:07.120 employees were

00:52:08.200 contractors and

00:52:09.800 Doge and

00:52:10.640 Trump just

00:52:11.200 said all the

00:52:11.840 contractors are

00:52:12.580 gone.

00:52:14.740 So as

00:52:15.680 somebody, an

00:52:17.320 ex named

00:52:17.760 William Wolf

00:52:18.400 said,

00:52:19.500 Trump is

00:52:19.940 literally

00:52:20.380 Thanos

00:52:21.080 snapping the

00:52:21.780 deep state

00:52:22.260 end of

00:52:22.560 existence.

00:52:24.180 So I

00:52:24.720 guess the

00:52:25.060 USAID

00:52:25.560 people, some

00:52:26.080 of them

00:52:26.320 were on

00:52:26.580 a Zoom

00:52:26.940 call, and

00:52:27.980 all of a

00:52:28.320 sudden the

00:52:28.500 Zoom call

00:52:28.920 went, you

00:52:29.380 know, half

00:52:29.840 of the

00:52:30.060 people went

00:52:30.460 dark.

00:52:31.720 It was

00:52:32.280 like Thanos

00:52:32.980 from the

00:52:33.620 superhero

00:52:35.980 movies where

00:52:36.780 he snaps

00:52:37.180 his fingers

00:52:37.680 and half

00:52:38.260 of the

00:52:38.480 population

00:52:38.960 of the

00:52:39.220 planet

00:52:39.460 dies.

00:52:40.920 So Trump

00:52:41.900 is Thanos

00:52:43.140 snapping the

00:52:43.780 deep state

00:52:44.200 end of

00:52:44.540 existence.

00:52:47.340 If you'd

00:52:48.000 like to

00:52:48.280 know,

00:52:48.580 is USAID

00:52:50.980 something that

00:52:51.960 you should

00:52:53.880 be on

00:52:54.160 their side

00:52:54.700 because let's

00:52:56.360 say, hey,

00:52:57.340 at least they're

00:52:57.860 working for

00:52:58.380 America.

00:52:59.680 Maybe they're

00:53:00.220 doing bad

00:53:01.260 things to

00:53:01.680 other countries,

00:53:02.300 but they're

00:53:03.140 doing it for a

00:53:03.760 good reason in

00:53:04.520 terms of

00:53:04.880 America.

00:53:05.540 So America

00:53:06.000 is stronger

00:53:06.580 because they

00:53:07.520 exist.

00:53:08.360 Well, here's

00:53:08.760 something else

00:53:09.200 you should know

00:53:09.600 about USAID.

00:53:10.940 According to

00:53:11.380 Stephen Miller,

00:53:12.660 98% of the

00:53:13.900 USAID people

00:53:15.140 donated to

00:53:15.800 Kamala Harris or

00:53:16.600 other left-wing

00:53:17.340 candidates.

00:53:19.420 Huh.

00:53:20.140 So one of

00:53:21.060 the ways that

00:53:21.640 the USAID

00:53:23.720 controls other

00:53:24.680 countries is by

00:53:26.960 getting the

00:53:27.380 other countries

00:53:27.920 to be infected

00:53:29.720 by DEI,

00:53:31.380 climate change,

00:53:32.680 abortion rights,

00:53:33.720 and identity

00:53:34.260 politics.

00:53:37.200 Wait a

00:53:38.020 minute.

00:53:39.000 Are you

00:53:39.740 saying,

00:53:40.180 Scott,

00:53:40.860 that we use

00:53:42.320 the things that

00:53:42.980 are popular in

00:53:43.720 the United

00:53:44.060 States to

00:53:44.820 destroy other

00:53:45.760 countries?

00:53:46.960 Yup.

00:53:48.720 Does that

00:53:49.480 mean that

00:53:50.260 those things

00:53:50.980 are only big

00:53:51.680 in the United

00:53:52.160 States because

00:53:52.960 the same

00:53:54.000 entities are

00:53:54.640 trying to

00:53:55.060 destroy the

00:53:55.640 United States?

00:53:58.260 Maybe.

00:53:59.520 That's what it

00:54:00.280 looks like.

00:54:01.700 If we know

00:54:02.620 that building

00:54:04.100 up capacity

00:54:05.100 in another

00:54:05.620 country where

00:54:06.920 they're fighting

00:54:07.380 over DEI,

00:54:08.800 they're fighting

00:54:09.560 over climate,

00:54:10.640 and there's

00:54:11.280 lots of money

00:54:11.780 sloshing around

00:54:12.760 that allegedly

00:54:13.520 is going to

00:54:14.140 climate and

00:54:14.780 abortion rights

00:54:17.640 and identity.

00:54:18.360 I think

00:54:18.580 abortion rights

00:54:19.180 is probably

00:54:19.460 the smaller

00:54:19.880 one, but

00:54:20.880 identity

00:54:21.840 politics.

00:54:23.480 Do you

00:54:24.020 think there's

00:54:24.400 any chance

00:54:25.140 if we use

00:54:26.280 these things

00:54:26.720 for weapons

00:54:27.400 to destroy

00:54:28.160 other countries,

00:54:29.380 you don't

00:54:30.120 think that's

00:54:30.540 what's happening

00:54:30.980 to us?

00:54:32.400 Now, in the

00:54:33.100 United States,

00:54:33.660 it wouldn't be

00:54:34.060 to destroy

00:54:34.640 the country,

00:54:35.180 it would be

00:54:35.380 to change

00:54:35.820 the leadership,

00:54:37.040 to make

00:54:37.360 sure the

00:54:37.740 leadership was

00:54:39.200 on board

00:54:39.680 with climate

00:54:40.380 and abortion

00:54:40.980 and identity

00:54:41.660 and DEI.

00:54:43.480 So, here's

00:54:44.680 the capacity.

00:54:46.140 First, you

00:54:46.620 come up with

00:54:47.120 these things

00:54:47.620 that seem

00:54:48.080 bigger than

00:54:48.820 the country.

00:54:50.420 You know,

00:54:50.740 hey, you've

00:54:51.460 got to have

00:54:51.700 DEI, you've

00:54:53.000 got to have

00:54:53.720 climate, you've

00:54:55.360 got to have

00:54:55.640 identity, and

00:54:56.940 you make that

00:54:57.380 bigger than

00:54:58.060 people's

00:54:58.740 patriotism, and

00:55:00.180 then you can

00:55:00.900 control the

00:55:02.000 country by

00:55:03.740 controlling those

00:55:04.520 things.

00:55:05.620 So, the fact

00:55:06.300 that for most

00:55:07.840 of the last

00:55:08.800 20 years, if

00:55:10.320 you went in

00:55:10.800 public and

00:55:11.300 spoke out

00:55:11.800 against DEI,

00:55:12.800 climate, abortion,

00:55:13.820 or identity, it

00:55:15.180 would be the

00:55:15.580 end of your

00:55:16.220 professional career.

00:55:18.460 Do you think

00:55:19.240 that's a

00:55:19.640 coincidence?

00:55:20.740 No.

00:55:21.680 That looks

00:55:22.320 exactly like

00:55:23.100 these are

00:55:23.540 meant for

00:55:24.240 capacity building,

00:55:25.800 and these are

00:55:26.520 not even real

00:55:27.080 topics, meaning

00:55:28.420 that if they

00:55:29.360 were not

00:55:29.720 introduced by

00:55:30.920 people who

00:55:31.360 wanted to

00:55:31.740 control the

00:55:32.260 country, they

00:55:33.120 wouldn't even

00:55:33.520 be here.

00:55:35.120 We would

00:55:35.640 have been, we

00:55:36.900 don't need

00:55:37.320 DEI because

00:55:38.040 we're a

00:55:38.400 melting pot,

00:55:39.720 right?

00:55:39.980 We would

00:55:41.700 say climate

00:55:43.120 change doesn't

00:55:45.340 seem to make

00:55:45.860 sense because

00:55:46.540 India and

00:55:47.440 China aren't

00:55:47.920 going to

00:55:48.140 change, and

00:55:48.720 so there's

00:55:49.100 nothing we

00:55:49.480 can do, but

00:55:50.820 instead we

00:55:51.280 act like we're

00:55:52.460 the only ones

00:55:53.000 who can do

00:55:53.400 anything and

00:55:53.920 it's an

00:55:54.200 existential

00:55:54.540 threat.

00:55:55.220 That doesn't

00:55:55.780 make any

00:55:56.140 sense, right?

00:55:57.680 Why would you

00:55:58.400 even have that

00:55:59.200 frame unless

00:56:00.580 you were trying

00:56:01.040 to control the

00:56:02.380 country?

00:56:04.280 And identity

00:56:05.100 politics,

00:56:05.700 obviously, same

00:56:06.620 thing.

00:56:08.980 Anyway, so

00:56:12.540 it looks like

00:56:13.080 USAID is

00:56:14.380 going to be

00:56:15.260 vastly

00:56:16.960 decreased.

00:56:19.180 I told you

00:56:20.020 how James

00:56:21.020 Carville referred

00:56:22.180 to Kamala

00:56:23.220 Harris as the

00:56:23.980 seventh-string

00:56:24.800 quarterback and

00:56:26.280 said, you

00:56:26.660 know, you

00:56:26.860 can't win the

00:56:27.400 Super Bowl with

00:56:28.040 a seventh-string

00:56:28.760 quarterback.

00:56:30.120 Now, he was

00:56:31.220 asked more

00:56:31.840 about it in

00:56:32.360 another interview,

00:56:33.060 and he's

00:56:36.580 not backing

00:56:37.060 off of

00:56:37.400 that, but

00:56:38.720 here's what's

00:56:39.620 funny about

00:56:40.100 it.

00:56:41.300 Carville's

00:56:41.780 using a lot

00:56:42.420 of words to

00:56:43.640 describe that

00:56:44.300 DEI destroyed

00:56:45.260 the Democrats

00:56:45.960 because the

00:56:48.780 real story of

00:56:49.460 Kamala Harris

00:56:50.160 is not that

00:56:50.980 she was

00:56:51.540 anointed, it

00:56:53.220 was that

00:56:53.540 nobody else

00:56:54.140 could be

00:56:54.600 anointed

00:56:54.980 because of

00:56:57.240 DEI.

00:56:58.420 If she

00:56:59.200 were not

00:56:59.720 a DEI

00:57:00.980 qualified

00:57:02.020 candidate,

00:57:03.060 do you

00:57:03.620 think she

00:57:03.940 would have

00:57:04.200 been picked

00:57:04.820 without any

00:57:06.320 process?

00:57:07.800 No.

00:57:08.380 I think the

00:57:08.800 thing that

00:57:09.280 allowed them

00:57:09.920 to say,

00:57:10.560 okay, this

00:57:11.040 is obvious,

00:57:12.400 you know, this

00:57:12.740 is the way to

00:57:13.180 go, people

00:57:13.660 will be okay

00:57:14.160 with it, is

00:57:14.660 that she was

00:57:15.120 female and

00:57:15.640 black, and

00:57:17.400 that made

00:57:17.780 it okay.

00:57:19.200 So Carville's

00:57:19.980 so close, but

00:57:22.560 we'll see how

00:57:23.540 brave he is

00:57:24.160 because he

00:57:24.560 knows it's a

00:57:25.140 DEI problem.

00:57:26.220 You know he

00:57:26.700 knows, right?

00:57:27.800 Because he's

00:57:28.420 not dumb, he's

00:57:29.360 been around, he

00:57:30.100 knows exactly

00:57:30.720 what the problem

00:57:31.300 is, and I

00:57:32.780 think before

00:57:33.300 he's actually, he

00:57:34.180 may have

00:57:34.440 actually made a

00:57:35.060 reference to

00:57:35.540 the fact that

00:57:36.660 they, you

00:57:37.220 know, they

00:57:37.440 couldn't leave

00:57:37.900 the DEI, or

00:57:39.020 let's say the

00:57:39.680 identity, I

00:57:40.700 think they

00:57:40.980 would say it's

00:57:41.380 an identity

00:57:41.900 thing.

00:57:44.080 But he's so

00:57:44.780 close to being

00:57:45.540 a Republican.

00:57:46.560 Claudia was

00:57:47.320 leaving for her

00:57:47.940 pickleball

00:57:48.340 tournament.

00:57:48.920 I've been

00:57:49.140 visualizing my

00:57:49.940 match all

00:57:50.600 week.

00:57:51.400 She was so

00:57:52.000 focused on

00:57:52.500 visualizing that

00:57:53.380 she didn't see

00:57:53.980 the column behind

00:57:54.640 her car on her

00:57:55.540 backhand side.

00:57:57.400 Good thing

00:57:58.080 Claudia's with

00:57:58.700 Intact, the

00:57:59.520 insurer with the

00:58:00.320 largest network of

00:58:01.180 auto service

00:58:01.680 centers in the

00:58:02.460 country.

00:58:03.140 Everything was

00:58:03.640 taken care of

00:58:04.280 under one roof, and

00:58:05.280 she was on her

00:58:05.820 way in a rental

00:58:06.380 car in no time.

00:58:07.560 I made it to my

00:58:08.500 tournament and lost

00:58:10.000 in the first round.

00:58:11.060 But you got there

00:58:12.060 on time.

00:58:12.900 Intact insurance,

00:58:14.060 your auto service

00:58:14.800 ace.

00:58:15.520 Certain conditions

00:58:16.040 apply.

00:58:16.420 Meanwhile, the DNC

00:58:18.580 has picked a new

00:58:19.340 chairperson, Ken

00:58:21.080 Martin.

00:58:22.420 Let me explain

00:58:23.500 Ken Martin.

00:58:25.080 He's the whitest

00:58:26.160 man in America,

00:58:26.880 and if you'd like

00:58:30.020 to know how

00:58:30.520 white he is, I

00:58:32.320 think I can do a

00:58:33.040 good impression of

00:58:33.800 his dancing for

00:58:34.700 TikTok.

00:58:36.600 So this will tell

00:58:37.600 you, you know,

00:58:38.540 does he just look

00:58:39.580 white, or is he

00:58:41.300 white like all the

00:58:42.340 way through?

00:58:42.760 Well, here's him

00:58:44.420 dancing.

00:58:51.980 I rest my case.

00:58:53.360 He's as white as

00:58:53.980 you could possibly

00:58:54.560 be.

00:58:55.500 Can't get whiter

00:58:56.420 than that.

00:58:56.780 If you're listening

00:59:00.620 on audio, I just

00:59:02.280 did a hilarious

00:59:03.080 impression of a

00:59:04.220 white man dancing

00:59:05.060 with no rhythm

00:59:06.100 whatsoever.

00:59:07.200 How did I do such

00:59:08.380 a good impression?

00:59:09.960 Well, it's a trick.

00:59:12.100 It just turns out

00:59:12.960 that's how I dance.

00:59:14.400 Sorry.

00:59:15.700 So yes, the

00:59:16.700 whitest man in

00:59:17.400 America is the

00:59:18.280 chair, but at

00:59:19.880 least they added

00:59:21.060 some diversity for

00:59:22.900 the vice chair,

00:59:24.380 which is David

00:59:25.660 Hogg.

00:59:26.780 The young man

00:59:27.800 who's the

00:59:28.140 anti-gun

00:59:28.720 advocate.

00:59:30.800 So two of the

00:59:32.260 whitest men in

00:59:33.060 America.

00:59:35.020 Now, how does

00:59:36.780 that work?

00:59:39.400 Because I saw

00:59:40.940 all the candidates

00:59:41.880 who were trying

00:59:43.420 out for the head

00:59:44.020 of the DNC, and

00:59:45.880 it seemed to me

00:59:47.180 from the few

00:59:47.840 things I saw

00:59:48.540 that the vast

00:59:49.400 majority of them

00:59:50.400 fit into the

00:59:52.080 non-white man

00:59:53.180 category.

00:59:53.700 how did the

00:59:57.180 Democrats end

00:59:58.000 up picking two

00:59:59.020 white guys to

00:59:59.720 be the head

01:00:00.160 when identity

01:00:02.480 is so important

01:00:03.360 and their

01:00:04.680 entire party's

01:00:05.880 thrust is,

01:00:07.940 you know,

01:00:08.080 we're not the

01:00:08.560 white man

01:00:08.920 party.

01:00:11.380 Separately,

01:00:12.700 and I think it

01:00:13.220 was Politico,

01:00:14.660 there was an

01:00:15.220 article about

01:00:16.000 Democrat black

01:00:17.740 women who

01:00:19.100 were sort of

01:00:19.700 saying,

01:00:20.000 all right,

01:00:20.460 well, we'll

01:00:20.760 just move on

01:00:21.660 with their

01:00:21.960 lives because

01:00:22.580 we lost.

01:00:24.280 And I say

01:00:25.980 to myself,

01:00:27.080 how can the

01:00:28.760 Democrats ever

01:00:29.500 come back?

01:00:30.860 Because if

01:00:31.660 they pick

01:00:33.420 people based

01:00:34.180 on, I

01:00:35.060 assume, they

01:00:35.560 thought these

01:00:35.980 were the most

01:00:36.660 capable people.

01:00:39.900 And, well,

01:00:40.740 Hogg is an

01:00:41.540 interesting case

01:00:42.400 because he's

01:00:43.320 more like the

01:00:43.980 future.

01:00:45.300 So if they

01:00:46.500 say he's

01:00:46.920 not quite

01:00:47.400 ready, but

01:00:48.260 we can, you

01:00:49.580 know, we can

01:00:49.960 nurture him and

01:00:50.640 turn him into a

01:00:51.280 candidate later,

01:00:52.300 that's actually a

01:00:53.020 good play.

01:00:53.920 So I wouldn't

01:00:55.600 give them a

01:00:56.040 hard time for

01:00:56.960 having somebody

01:00:57.940 who's a, you

01:00:58.900 know, a

01:00:59.160 neophyte.

01:00:59.800 It's a good

01:01:00.160 starting place.

01:01:01.060 I think, I

01:01:01.900 think he's, his

01:01:02.960 activism has

01:01:03.860 earned him, you

01:01:05.240 know, a spot at

01:01:06.560 the show.

01:01:08.700 But he's the,

01:01:09.780 he's seriously

01:01:10.400 anti-gun.

01:01:11.380 They're both white

01:01:12.380 as you could

01:01:12.780 possibly be and

01:01:13.700 male.

01:01:14.980 So unless one

01:01:15.900 of them is

01:01:16.300 gay and I

01:01:16.820 don't know

01:01:17.180 it, doesn't

01:01:19.020 that make an

01:01:19.740 internal civil

01:01:21.520 war?

01:01:22.840 How in the

01:01:23.500 world do

01:01:23.880 Democrats get

01:01:25.160 okay with that?

01:01:25.800 And then what

01:01:26.140 are they going

01:01:26.500 to do when

01:01:26.840 they pick a

01:01:27.320 candidate?

01:01:28.520 Are they going

01:01:28.920 to pick a

01:01:29.280 white guy

01:01:29.700 candidate?

01:01:30.780 Because I

01:01:31.300 think the

01:01:31.720 Democrats

01:01:32.160 thought that

01:01:33.760 Kamala lost

01:01:34.560 because of

01:01:35.100 racism and

01:01:35.840 sexism.

01:01:37.340 That's what

01:01:37.920 basically everybody

01:01:38.800 running for the

01:01:39.420 job thought.

01:01:41.120 So is it

01:01:42.080 possible that the

01:01:43.720 Democrats are

01:01:44.380 so dumb that

01:01:46.420 they think that

01:01:47.040 the only thing

01:01:47.600 they need to

01:01:48.080 do to win is

01:01:48.800 to run a

01:01:49.260 white guy next

01:01:50.880 time?

01:01:52.180 Is that going

01:01:52.840 to happen?

01:01:54.360 I would love

01:01:55.280 to see them

01:01:55.780 make that

01:01:56.160 mistake.

01:01:57.280 No, that's

01:01:57.720 not the right

01:01:58.180 way to go.

01:02:00.480 That's definitely

01:02:01.260 not the right

01:02:01.860 way to go for

01:02:03.200 them.

01:02:03.860 But they don't

01:02:04.600 have a right

01:02:05.340 way to go.

01:02:06.460 There is

01:02:06.920 actually no

01:02:07.600 solution given

01:02:09.000 their current

01:02:09.480 setup.

01:02:09.880 If they go

01:02:11.480 capability, then

01:02:12.880 they violate

01:02:13.920 their DEI

01:02:14.660 principles.

01:02:15.540 If they go

01:02:15.920 DEI, they'll

01:02:16.820 lose again.

01:02:18.060 That's the only

01:02:18.580 two paths.

01:02:19.980 Pro-DEI, you

01:02:21.020 lose.

01:02:22.180 Anti-DEI, you

01:02:23.960 lose.

01:02:25.160 Two losing

01:02:25.680 paths.

01:02:27.340 So, yeah, no

01:02:28.680 hope.

01:02:29.940 Well, this is the

01:02:31.100 biggest surprise

01:02:31.820 ever, according to

01:02:32.860 Interesting Engineering.

01:02:35.000 And Sujita Sina

01:02:36.320 says that China

01:02:38.640 is blaming U.S.

01:02:39.640 hackers for the

01:02:40.920 hacking attack

01:02:43.000 on DeepSeek.

01:02:44.580 So, DeepSeek is

01:02:45.480 that allegedly

01:02:47.400 super cheap AI

01:02:48.880 that came out

01:02:49.500 of China.

01:02:50.800 And as soon

01:02:51.740 as, practically

01:02:52.440 as soon as it

01:02:53.160 made the news,

01:02:54.060 it got attacked

01:02:54.740 by a denial

01:02:55.520 of service.

01:02:56.860 Very persistent

01:02:57.740 attack that I

01:02:58.540 think is still

01:02:59.120 doing its thing.

01:03:00.820 And China says

01:03:01.780 every one of the

01:03:02.680 attacks is coming

01:03:04.900 from the United

01:03:05.420 States.

01:03:06.460 Do you think

01:03:07.120 that's true?

01:03:09.360 I don't know.

01:03:10.760 I mean, it's not

01:03:11.280 the sort of thing

01:03:11.880 that countries

01:03:12.400 necessarily tell you

01:03:14.100 the truth about.

01:03:15.420 And I always

01:03:16.700 thought that if

01:03:17.240 you're a good

01:03:17.720 hacker, you

01:03:19.100 could somehow

01:03:19.560 disguise the

01:03:20.520 source.

01:03:21.740 Is that not

01:03:22.560 true?

01:03:23.760 There's no such

01:03:24.620 thing as hackers

01:03:25.380 who are good

01:03:26.260 enough to do

01:03:26.940 something like

01:03:27.520 this.

01:03:30.600 Don't they have

01:03:31.300 a way to disguise

01:03:32.040 their origin?

01:03:33.820 Like, how

01:03:34.200 could he even

01:03:34.660 be a hacker?

01:03:36.320 If everybody

01:03:36.880 can tell

01:03:37.280 where it

01:03:37.560 came from.

01:03:39.460 I don't know.

01:03:45.540 All right.

01:03:46.540 I got to look

01:03:47.220 at this comment.

01:03:54.160 Mentions of,

01:03:55.200 all right.

01:03:56.260 I think I won't

01:03:56.960 mention that.

01:03:59.260 Mike Burt.

01:04:00.060 But noted.

01:04:03.880 Noted.

01:04:06.320 Anyway.

01:04:07.680 So, yeah.

01:04:08.660 My first

01:04:09.520 impression was

01:04:11.100 it's American

01:04:12.080 companies or the

01:04:13.120 government going

01:04:13.700 after that.

01:04:15.420 Deep Seek.

01:04:16.480 So, the latest

01:04:17.140 guess is that

01:04:19.880 Deep Seek

01:04:20.340 probably cost

01:04:21.120 well over a

01:04:21.940 billion dollars,

01:04:22.800 not six million

01:04:24.220 dollars to make.

01:04:25.380 So, that was

01:04:26.100 always BS.

01:04:27.560 The Gateway

01:04:27.960 Pundits

01:04:28.360 reporting that

01:04:29.120 DOJ is

01:04:30.260 opening an

01:04:30.720 investigation into

01:04:31.540 Chuck Schumer

01:04:32.220 for threatening

01:04:33.900 the Supreme

01:04:34.540 Court justices.

01:04:36.060 And I didn't

01:04:36.940 even remember

01:04:37.540 that.

01:04:38.880 I mean, I

01:04:39.640 remembered it

01:04:40.200 when I was

01:04:40.540 reminded of it,

01:04:41.380 but it didn't

01:04:43.060 seem important to

01:04:44.200 me at the time.

01:04:45.240 But maybe it is.

01:04:46.660 So, here's what

01:04:47.460 Schumer said in

01:04:49.760 public at a

01:04:50.440 pro-abortion

01:04:50.980 rally in 2020.

01:04:52.080 He said that

01:04:53.620 the two

01:04:54.760 justices, that

01:04:57.660 he didn't like

01:04:58.540 their decisions,

01:04:59.740 he said they

01:05:00.260 would, quote,

01:05:00.800 pay the price

01:05:01.640 for overturning

01:05:03.080 Roe versus

01:05:03.500 Wade.

01:05:05.280 And so, that's

01:05:06.400 before they

01:05:06.860 actually did it.

01:05:07.460 He was warning

01:05:07.880 them.

01:05:08.540 And then he

01:05:08.920 said, I want

01:05:09.500 to tell you,

01:05:10.140 Gorsuch, I want

01:05:11.380 to tell you,

01:05:12.020 Kavanaugh, you

01:05:13.020 have released

01:05:13.560 the whirlwind and

01:05:15.040 you will pay the

01:05:15.760 price, Schumer

01:05:16.960 said.

01:05:17.800 You won't know

01:05:18.660 what hit you if

01:05:19.580 you go forward

01:05:20.260 with these awful

01:05:20.940 decisions.

01:05:22.080 Now, how do

01:05:24.500 you interpret

01:05:25.100 that?

01:05:27.240 Is anybody

01:05:28.480 aware of any

01:05:31.080 case where

01:05:31.980 Supreme Court

01:05:32.800 justices were

01:05:33.960 somehow legally

01:05:36.900 or politically

01:05:37.580 attacked?

01:05:39.780 Like, what

01:05:40.240 exactly would

01:05:41.020 happen to the

01:05:41.540 justices?

01:05:42.680 They know when

01:05:43.500 they take the

01:05:44.060 job that half

01:05:45.560 the country is

01:05:46.140 going to hate

01:05:46.540 every one of

01:05:47.060 their decisions.

01:05:48.620 So, if Schumer

01:05:50.140 is just going

01:05:50.700 to say, we're

01:05:51.220 going to hate

01:05:51.520 this decision,

01:05:52.680 would that

01:05:53.400 have any

01:05:53.740 impact on

01:05:54.240 the Supreme

01:05:54.620 Court?

01:05:55.720 What exactly

01:05:56.760 did Schumer

01:05:57.920 think he

01:05:58.420 could do

01:05:58.940 to these

01:05:59.580 specific

01:06:00.080 justices?

01:06:01.420 Now, if

01:06:02.780 you're asking

01:06:03.160 me if it's

01:06:03.640 inappropriate,

01:06:04.600 oh, by

01:06:05.020 God, yes.

01:06:05.960 That's pretty

01:06:06.680 inappropriate.

01:06:08.140 But is it

01:06:09.340 illegal?

01:06:11.420 Is it

01:06:12.040 illegal?

01:06:12.860 Or are they

01:06:13.460 only looking

01:06:14.000 at it in

01:06:15.080 terms of

01:06:15.480 maybe impeaching

01:06:16.600 Schumer for

01:06:17.560 bad judgment?

01:06:20.520 I don't

01:06:20.760 know.

01:06:21.820 So, it

01:06:22.340 seems like

01:06:22.900 here's where

01:06:24.580 I am at

01:06:24.920 this.

01:06:26.680 Trump says

01:06:27.520 a lot of

01:06:28.600 hyperbolic

01:06:29.380 things.

01:06:31.340 Do we

01:06:31.920 take every

01:06:32.420 one of

01:06:32.680 those as

01:06:33.160 a literal?

01:06:34.560 We don't,

01:06:35.360 do we?

01:06:35.840 We don't

01:06:36.260 take it as

01:06:36.660 literal.

01:06:37.540 We just

01:06:38.020 know when

01:06:38.380 he's

01:06:38.640 threatening

01:06:39.160 and that

01:06:40.480 sort of

01:06:40.760 thing.

01:06:41.800 Now, I

01:06:42.760 think the

01:06:43.060 way Schumer

01:06:43.580 played it

01:06:44.120 by naming

01:06:45.380 names,

01:06:46.420 that's

01:06:46.960 pretty scary.

01:06:50.100 And it

01:06:50.380 does seem

01:06:50.840 like it

01:06:51.220 would have

01:06:51.480 the effect

01:06:52.300 of biasing

01:06:53.700 the court

01:06:54.300 because they

01:06:55.380 might want

01:06:55.680 to stay

01:06:55.960 alive or

01:06:56.660 not be

01:06:57.800 attacked in

01:06:58.360 some way

01:06:58.740 that they

01:06:59.060 don't see

01:06:59.400 coming.

01:07:00.460 So, yeah,

01:07:00.980 I think it

01:07:01.360 was definitely

01:07:02.960 worth investigating.

01:07:05.160 But I'm

01:07:05.960 not sure

01:07:06.500 that I'd

01:07:07.740 want him to

01:07:08.080 go to jail

01:07:08.760 if there's

01:07:09.700 any kind

01:07:10.080 of law he

01:07:10.520 broke.

01:07:11.260 Because that

01:07:11.820 would be,

01:07:12.920 that's going

01:07:13.420 to feel

01:07:13.680 law fair-ish.

01:07:15.600 If they

01:07:16.160 investigate

01:07:16.620 him and

01:07:17.300 rebuke him

01:07:18.200 or, you

01:07:19.240 know, give

01:07:19.500 him some

01:07:19.760 kind of

01:07:20.100 censure in

01:07:20.680 the Senate

01:07:22.000 or they

01:07:23.140 even do

01:07:23.580 an impeachment,

01:07:25.060 I would

01:07:25.380 say, yeah,

01:07:26.160 that seems

01:07:26.600 about right.

01:07:28.580 But I

01:07:28.760 wouldn't, you

01:07:29.560 know, if it

01:07:30.200 turns out

01:07:30.600 there's a

01:07:31.060 law that's

01:07:32.300 technically

01:07:32.740 broken, I

01:07:34.560 don't know.

01:07:35.200 That would

01:07:35.660 be a tough

01:07:36.140 one.

01:07:37.100 As much

01:07:37.700 as I want

01:07:38.140 to say

01:07:38.480 nobody's

01:07:39.220 above the

01:07:39.680 law,

01:07:39.980 if we're

01:07:40.900 going to

01:07:41.080 say that

01:07:41.660 nobody would

01:07:43.140 have been

01:07:43.560 taken to

01:07:44.860 all these

01:07:45.260 lawfare

01:07:45.820 situations

01:07:46.500 except Trump,

01:07:47.920 which is

01:07:48.320 true, maybe

01:07:50.400 there's an

01:07:51.040 equivalent one

01:07:51.620 on the other

01:07:52.020 side.

01:07:52.760 So here's

01:07:53.080 the reason

01:07:53.340 I bring

01:07:53.660 this up.

01:07:56.000 I feel

01:07:56.740 some

01:07:56.980 responsibility

01:07:57.660 as a

01:07:58.540 citizen

01:07:58.900 to make

01:08:01.600 sure that

01:08:02.300 the winning

01:08:03.180 side stays

01:08:05.400 within bounds.

01:08:07.280 Now,

01:08:07.440 sometimes I

01:08:08.100 like to let

01:08:08.620 them color

01:08:09.080 outside the

01:08:09.720 lines, not

01:08:10.340 let them,

01:08:10.820 they're just

01:08:11.160 going to do

01:08:11.500 it.

01:08:12.000 So sometimes

01:08:12.560 you don't

01:08:12.920 mind if they

01:08:13.420 color outside

01:08:14.000 the lines if

01:08:15.400 they're getting

01:08:15.740 something done.

01:08:17.120 So I don't

01:08:17.940 mind whatsoever

01:08:18.700 if Trump

01:08:19.860 stretches the

01:08:21.680 power of the

01:08:22.460 executive.

01:08:23.480 Say, well,

01:08:24.260 you know, you

01:08:24.740 think I can't

01:08:25.360 do it, but I'm

01:08:25.980 going to try it

01:08:26.420 anyway.

01:08:26.980 Let's see if I

01:08:27.420 get away with

01:08:27.920 it.

01:08:28.160 I don't mind

01:08:28.540 that at all

01:08:29.060 because those

01:08:30.120 are transparently

01:08:31.200 for the benefit

01:08:32.140 of the

01:08:32.420 country, what

01:08:33.980 else would

01:08:34.320 they be?

01:08:35.960 It's not

01:08:36.600 transparently for

01:08:37.600 his benefit.

01:08:38.280 He's not even

01:08:38.760 running for

01:08:39.180 office again.

01:08:40.320 So if he's

01:08:41.060 doing something

01:08:41.520 that's obviously

01:08:42.420 and transparently

01:08:43.600 for my benefit,

01:08:46.320 yeah, you can

01:08:47.340 color a little

01:08:48.040 bit outside the

01:08:48.860 lines.

01:08:49.660 But when it

01:08:50.220 comes to putting

01:08:50.820 other people in

01:08:51.700 jail, if it

01:08:53.160 comes to that,

01:08:54.380 that's where all

01:08:55.320 of us have to

01:08:56.100 be responsible

01:08:57.440 citizens first

01:08:58.520 and political

01:09:00.180 second.

01:09:01.200 Now, we

01:09:02.300 wish that the

01:09:03.060 Democrats had

01:09:03.700 done the same.

01:09:04.580 They didn't.

01:09:06.300 But I feel like

01:09:07.400 we could hold

01:09:07.880 ourselves to a

01:09:08.580 higher standard.

01:09:09.920 So this one, I'm

01:09:10.680 going to keep my

01:09:11.140 eye on it.

01:09:12.560 If it's not a

01:09:14.080 prison risk,

01:09:17.360 then I'd be

01:09:18.840 okay with

01:09:19.280 wherever it

01:09:19.740 goes.

01:09:20.740 But if you're

01:09:21.520 really talking

01:09:21.980 about putting

01:09:22.600 Schumer in

01:09:23.200 prison, well,

01:09:24.560 then I'm going

01:09:24.880 to ask some

01:09:25.220 more questions.

01:09:26.040 And I think

01:09:26.420 that that's

01:09:26.820 appropriate.

01:09:28.060 In the end, I

01:09:29.000 might say, you

01:09:29.540 know what, this

01:09:29.980 was so bad.

01:09:31.460 That's why the

01:09:32.160 law exists, if

01:09:32.980 there is a

01:09:33.340 law.

01:09:34.120 So I could

01:09:34.780 be convinced,

01:09:36.800 but I think

01:09:37.700 the most

01:09:39.360 responsible

01:09:40.200 position is,

01:09:41.920 you're going to

01:09:42.280 have to prove

01:09:42.740 this one.

01:09:43.840 You're going to

01:09:44.260 have to prove

01:09:44.740 this.

01:09:45.440 And I'm not

01:09:46.200 satisfied yet,

01:09:47.840 if it's going to

01:09:48.660 be anything

01:09:49.020 legal.

01:09:51.080 So don't be

01:09:52.880 like them, is

01:09:53.620 what I'm

01:09:53.880 saying.

01:09:54.180 So there's

01:09:56.980 an article in

01:09:57.440 The Guardian

01:09:57.860 in which the

01:09:59.200 title is,

01:09:59.940 Female

01:10:00.260 Narcissism

01:10:01.060 is Often

01:10:01.560 Misdiagnosed.

01:10:03.500 Now, I

01:10:05.260 don't care

01:10:05.620 about that

01:10:06.000 topic.

01:10:08.080 It's true.

01:10:09.040 I'm sure

01:10:09.440 female narcissism

01:10:10.780 is underdiagnosed.

01:10:12.600 But what was

01:10:14.060 interesting is the

01:10:14.840 propaganda in it.

01:10:16.700 So as they're

01:10:17.760 talking about just

01:10:18.440 narcissism in

01:10:19.400 general,

01:10:19.700 here's a

01:10:21.840 sentence in

01:10:23.740 The Guardian's

01:10:24.440 article.

01:10:25.540 So this is in

01:10:26.200 case you think

01:10:26.720 The Guardian is

01:10:27.480 a responsible

01:10:28.560 publication.

01:10:31.080 They're not.

01:10:32.540 This actual

01:10:33.340 sentence is in

01:10:34.400 that story.

01:10:35.520 Quote,

01:10:36.200 From Charles

01:10:37.280 Manson and

01:10:37.980 Ted Bundy to

01:10:38.880 Joseph Stalin,

01:10:40.280 Adolf Hitler,

01:10:41.340 and Donald

01:10:43.040 Trump,

01:10:44.240 most famous

01:10:45.260 people we

01:10:45.860 consider

01:10:46.280 psychopathic or

01:10:47.460 narcissistic are

01:10:48.820 male.

01:10:49.700 Wait a minute.

01:10:51.300 Let me read

01:10:51.700 that sentence

01:10:52.620 again.

01:10:53.720 Charles Manson,

01:10:54.700 Ted Bundy,

01:10:55.460 Joseph Stalin,

01:10:56.320 Adolf Hitler,

01:10:57.100 Donald Trump.

01:10:59.780 Oh, come

01:11:00.740 on.

01:11:02.400 They just

01:11:03.240 dropped that

01:11:03.840 in there like

01:11:05.240 that's some

01:11:05.720 kind of a

01:11:06.440 fact that

01:11:09.160 Trump should

01:11:09.660 be in the

01:11:10.020 same list

01:11:10.480 with serial

01:11:11.080 killers,

01:11:11.960 Stalin,

01:11:12.640 and Hitler.

01:11:15.080 Come on.

01:11:16.860 That is

01:11:17.760 so repulsive.

01:11:20.460 That they

01:11:20.980 just dropped

01:11:21.560 that in there.

01:11:22.240 And the

01:11:22.760 thing is,

01:11:23.260 it's not

01:11:23.640 even a

01:11:24.000 political story.

01:11:25.620 And they

01:11:26.100 just drop

01:11:26.620 that in there

01:11:27.120 like you're

01:11:27.580 going to

01:11:27.680 accept it

01:11:28.120 like a

01:11:28.400 fact.

01:11:28.740 Uh-huh.

01:11:29.080 Yeah.

01:11:29.940 Lenin.

01:11:30.540 Uh-huh.

01:11:31.500 Yeah.

01:11:31.660 Makes sense.

01:11:32.240 Stalin.

01:11:32.900 Not Lenin.

01:11:33.700 But Stalin,

01:11:34.620 Hitler,

01:11:35.140 Trump.

01:11:35.680 Yeah.

01:11:36.300 Same list.

01:11:37.480 I can see why

01:11:38.080 that would be

01:11:38.380 the same.

01:11:39.460 You motherfuckers.

01:11:40.980 You people at

01:11:42.040 the Guardian are

01:11:42.640 just shit.

01:11:44.860 There's an editor

01:11:45.760 who let that in.

01:11:47.100 So it would be

01:11:47.860 one thing if a

01:11:48.580 writer wrote it

01:11:49.300 and it snuck in,

01:11:50.200 but there was an

01:11:50.920 editor who looked

01:11:51.780 at it.

01:11:52.940 Whoever that

01:11:53.480 editor was,

01:11:55.100 you suck.

01:11:56.400 You were a

01:11:57.020 damaging piece

01:11:58.420 of shit for

01:11:59.800 doing that.

01:12:00.940 That is

01:12:02.200 unforgivable.

01:12:04.380 Un-fucking

01:12:04.940 forgivable.

01:12:06.280 The Guardian.

01:12:07.500 What a joke.

01:12:10.200 What are they

01:12:10.560 guarding?

01:12:11.480 Their own

01:12:12.120 stupidity?

01:12:12.660 Well,

01:12:15.020 Netanyahu's

01:12:15.740 coming to the

01:12:16.440 U.S.

01:12:16.760 to meet

01:12:17.340 with Trump.

01:12:19.640 I would

01:12:20.320 guess that

01:12:21.020 that's going

01:12:21.440 to be a

01:12:21.820 productive

01:12:22.280 meeting.

01:12:23.260 I also

01:12:23.940 guess that

01:12:24.560 it's going

01:12:24.840 to be

01:12:25.060 tense.

01:12:26.460 The

01:12:26.660 relationship

01:12:28.040 between

01:12:28.640 Netanyahu

01:12:29.240 and Trump

01:12:29.980 is pretty

01:12:30.440 interesting

01:12:30.840 because they're

01:12:33.800 both strong.

01:12:35.160 They're both

01:12:35.840 negotiators.

01:12:37.100 I think they

01:12:38.000 have a real

01:12:38.760 respect for

01:12:39.560 each other,

01:12:40.140 but they

01:12:40.540 don't have

01:12:41.060 all the same

01:12:41.840 objectives.

01:12:42.660 It's a

01:12:44.620 real interesting

01:12:45.340 dynamic just

01:12:46.320 because they're

01:12:46.900 so smart and

01:12:47.960 so good at

01:12:48.400 what they

01:12:48.660 do,

01:12:49.700 persuasion-wise

01:12:50.820 and politically,

01:12:52.340 that you

01:12:54.180 put the two

01:12:54.620 of them in

01:12:54.900 a room and

01:12:55.520 I think

01:12:58.040 something good

01:12:58.620 could come

01:12:59.140 out of it

01:12:59.480 most of

01:12:59.880 the time.

01:13:02.160 Here's what

01:13:02.880 I think.

01:13:04.620 The big

01:13:05.540 question,

01:13:06.220 and only

01:13:06.680 Trump can

01:13:07.280 sell this,

01:13:08.520 is what

01:13:08.960 do you do

01:13:09.340 with Gaza

01:13:09.920 now that

01:13:10.860 it's basically

01:13:12.000 unlivable

01:13:12.680 and ruined,

01:13:13.580 but people

01:13:15.120 want to go

01:13:15.500 back anyway.

01:13:16.520 They want

01:13:16.800 to go back

01:13:17.200 and live

01:13:17.820 in the

01:13:18.060 ruin,

01:13:18.420 I guess,

01:13:19.480 because it

01:13:19.980 would take

01:13:20.240 a long

01:13:20.820 time to

01:13:21.200 fix it.

01:13:22.100 It seems

01:13:22.460 like it

01:13:22.760 would be

01:13:23.020 toxic.

01:13:24.920 Trump has

01:13:25.800 teased the

01:13:26.960 idea that

01:13:28.880 the residents

01:13:30.160 might be put

01:13:31.560 in other

01:13:31.920 countries,

01:13:32.900 and then

01:13:33.540 Gaza just

01:13:34.460 gets basically

01:13:35.300 bulldozed and

01:13:36.180 turned into

01:13:36.680 something awesome,

01:13:37.460 but in its

01:13:38.900 own time.

01:13:40.040 There would

01:13:40.320 be no rush

01:13:40.920 to repatriate

01:13:41.900 anybody because

01:13:43.620 there wouldn't

01:13:44.000 be anything to

01:13:44.600 repatriate them

01:13:45.360 to that's

01:13:46.140 worth being

01:13:47.360 there, and

01:13:49.240 so finding

01:13:49.800 some other

01:13:50.200 countries to

01:13:50.720 take them.

01:13:51.780 But as

01:13:52.620 you know,

01:13:53.040 no other

01:13:53.400 country wants

01:13:53.960 them because

01:13:55.100 it's just

01:13:55.480 trouble.

01:13:56.860 I think for

01:13:57.880 purely political

01:13:58.860 reasons, the

01:14:00.240 pressure should

01:14:00.800 be on Iran.

01:14:02.580 Now, I don't

01:14:03.380 think there's

01:14:03.720 any chance

01:14:04.320 that Iran

01:14:05.260 would take

01:14:05.720 all the

01:14:06.140 Gazans into

01:14:07.040 Iran, but

01:14:08.880 they should

01:14:09.360 have to

01:14:09.700 answer for

01:14:10.180 it.

01:14:11.180 If they're

01:14:11.860 the ones

01:14:12.300 who are

01:14:12.600 behind, you

01:14:13.900 know, backing

01:14:14.660 the badness

01:14:15.700 that got

01:14:16.200 Gaza in this

01:14:16.900 situation, I

01:14:18.120 think they

01:14:18.480 broke it, they

01:14:19.360 bought it.

01:14:20.900 And even if

01:14:22.080 you don't think

01:14:22.620 that would be a

01:14:23.440 productive line

01:14:24.340 of attack, like

01:14:25.380 they'll just

01:14:25.720 say, no, you

01:14:26.580 broke it, you

01:14:27.920 bought it, I

01:14:29.600 think it would

01:14:29.980 at least change

01:14:30.560 the frame.

01:14:32.080 So the frame

01:14:32.980 is Iran did

01:14:34.700 this to you,

01:14:35.720 and they're

01:14:36.360 not willing

01:14:36.800 to make

01:14:37.340 good on

01:14:37.680 it.

01:14:38.700 So we're

01:14:39.360 not going

01:14:39.640 to correct

01:14:40.040 Iran's

01:14:40.720 mistake or

01:14:41.620 what Iran

01:14:42.220 did to

01:14:42.600 you.

01:14:43.300 We can

01:14:44.340 maybe rebuild

01:14:45.320 the area, and

01:14:46.160 in some cases

01:14:47.280 maybe some

01:14:48.240 people could

01:14:48.760 come back

01:14:49.140 someday.

01:14:50.160 But I

01:14:51.460 think only

01:14:52.060 Trump, only

01:14:54.060 Trump can

01:14:55.440 say nobody's

01:14:56.400 going back to

01:14:57.040 Gaza.

01:14:58.420 And I don't

01:14:59.200 think there's

01:14:59.620 another way to

01:15:00.180 round it.

01:15:01.020 I don't think

01:15:01.480 there's another

01:15:01.940 way in the

01:15:02.520 real world.

01:15:03.760 I just don't

01:15:04.560 think there's a

01:15:05.000 way to play it

01:15:05.560 where people

01:15:05.960 just go back

01:15:06.760 because they

01:15:07.640 would just

01:15:07.940 recreate the

01:15:08.620 tunnels,

01:15:09.220 recreate the

01:15:09.940 same situation

01:15:10.800 October 7th

01:15:12.100 would come

01:15:12.400 back.

01:15:13.800 So there's

01:15:14.420 no way that

01:15:14.860 Israel is

01:15:15.400 going to

01:15:15.660 say, yeah,

01:15:16.560 let's just

01:15:16.980 move back

01:15:17.560 the people

01:15:18.000 who are

01:15:18.300 really, really

01:15:18.820 mad at us.

01:15:20.580 It doesn't

01:15:21.180 make any

01:15:21.520 sense.

01:15:22.020 It would be

01:15:22.620 ridiculous.

01:15:24.360 And Trump

01:15:24.780 knows that.

01:15:25.800 So Trump's

01:15:26.480 the only one

01:15:26.900 who can say

01:15:27.280 the truth.

01:15:28.200 Nobody's

01:15:28.560 going back.

01:15:29.100 I think

01:15:30.960 that's the

01:15:31.480 part that

01:15:32.240 they have

01:15:32.600 to finesse.

01:15:33.780 Now, the

01:15:34.500 question is,

01:15:35.780 is there

01:15:36.140 some way to

01:15:36.780 say nobody's

01:15:37.840 going back,

01:15:39.200 but you do

01:15:39.740 sort of a

01:15:40.260 cat in the

01:15:40.760 roof where

01:15:41.520 you don't

01:15:41.800 say it all

01:15:42.240 at once?

01:15:43.440 So maybe

01:15:44.000 you say

01:15:44.300 things like,

01:15:45.380 well, you

01:15:46.120 know, it's

01:15:46.320 going to take

01:15:46.680 a long time

01:15:47.180 to get back

01:15:47.740 because we

01:15:48.180 have to

01:15:48.460 assess the

01:15:49.420 toxins.

01:15:50.440 And then

01:15:50.900 once they're

01:15:51.260 assessed, you

01:15:52.180 know, the

01:15:52.480 environmental

01:15:53.100 problems, once

01:15:54.360 they're upset,

01:15:55.040 once we looked

01:15:55.860 at it, then

01:15:56.420 they have to be

01:15:56.900 remediated.

01:15:57.640 That could

01:15:58.020 take a

01:15:58.380 couple of

01:15:58.640 years.

01:15:59.440 So it

01:15:59.980 could be

01:16:00.280 that the

01:16:00.720 cats on

01:16:01.380 the roof

01:16:01.820 is, we

01:16:04.180 think you

01:16:04.600 can go back

01:16:05.220 in five

01:16:05.700 years.

01:16:07.940 And then

01:16:08.480 people are

01:16:08.880 like, oh,

01:16:10.360 five years?

01:16:12.120 Yeah, five

01:16:12.920 years.

01:16:13.540 And in the

01:16:13.900 meantime, you

01:16:14.920 can either

01:16:15.280 resettle in

01:16:15.980 Iran if they

01:16:16.700 want you or

01:16:17.300 some other

01:16:17.680 country, and

01:16:19.020 you'll be at

01:16:19.760 least happy in

01:16:20.260 the meantime.

01:16:20.860 And maybe you

01:16:21.320 stay there

01:16:21.640 forever.

01:16:23.780 So I

01:16:24.280 think, so

01:16:25.260 that's what I

01:16:25.600 think.

01:16:26.200 I think they're

01:16:26.800 going to cat

01:16:27.240 and roof

01:16:27.640 it.

01:16:28.560 You're going

01:16:29.080 to see the

01:16:29.600 signal that

01:16:31.080 they're really

01:16:31.460 saying nobody's

01:16:32.220 going back, or

01:16:33.500 at least nobody's

01:16:34.060 going back for

01:16:34.600 five years.

01:16:36.860 I think that's

01:16:37.720 what's going to

01:16:38.100 come out of

01:16:38.440 it, something

01:16:39.480 that looks like

01:16:40.440 a time frame.

01:16:42.920 Meanwhile, over

01:16:43.640 in Ukraine, Forbes

01:16:45.000 is writing about

01:16:45.900 Ukraine has a

01:16:47.540 new drone

01:16:48.320 bomber that

01:16:49.740 can fly 1,200

01:16:50.620 miles with a

01:16:52.080 550-pound bomb

01:16:53.620 and then return.

01:16:54.320 So the big

01:16:56.540 thing is they

01:16:57.420 don't have a

01:16:57.880 lot of

01:16:58.140 reusable

01:16:58.760 death drones.

01:17:02.040 If you were

01:17:02.760 going to do a

01:17:03.240 long distance

01:17:04.000 with a drone,

01:17:05.580 usually the

01:17:06.280 drone itself was

01:17:07.160 the weapon, and

01:17:08.000 it just would

01:17:08.880 crash into

01:17:09.480 something and

01:17:10.000 explode.

01:17:11.120 But if you

01:17:12.040 could drop a

01:17:12.620 550-pound bomb

01:17:14.140 1,200 miles

01:17:15.180 away and then fly

01:17:15.960 back and do it

01:17:16.660 again, well,

01:17:18.420 that's a pretty

01:17:19.180 strong weapon.

01:17:20.900 Pretty strong

01:17:21.500 weapon.

01:17:22.900 So we'll see

01:17:23.620 if that makes

01:17:24.020 any difference.

01:17:25.000 And they also

01:17:25.580 have some kind

01:17:26.020 of robot that

01:17:26.680 can shoot down

01:17:27.740 drones with

01:17:29.240 electrical.

01:17:32.780 What do you

01:17:33.400 call it?

01:17:33.880 When somebody

01:17:34.640 interferes with

01:17:35.800 the drone's

01:17:36.400 navigation with

01:17:37.540 one of those

01:17:38.360 anti-drone

01:17:39.280 devices, what's

01:17:41.560 that called?

01:17:42.480 What is the

01:17:43.080 technology called?

01:17:45.160 Is it

01:17:45.700 electromagnetic

01:17:46.820 force beam?

01:17:49.840 Is there a

01:17:51.680 word for it?

01:17:52.880 I'm just

01:17:53.260 looking in the

01:17:53.720 comments.

01:17:55.600 EMP?

01:17:56.060 I don't think

01:17:56.480 it's an EMP.

01:17:57.860 It's a jammer.

01:17:58.960 Yeah, let's

01:17:59.300 call it a

01:17:59.680 disruptor or a

01:18:00.600 jammer.

01:18:01.840 Yeah, EMP

01:18:02.400 would certainly

01:18:04.480 do it, but

01:18:04.960 these are not

01:18:05.540 EMP-driven.

01:18:07.700 Yeah, these

01:18:08.160 are not EMP.

01:18:10.200 I don't think.

01:18:12.900 Or is there

01:18:13.840 like a micro

01:18:14.700 EMP?

01:18:15.140 Are the

01:18:17.700 jammers and

01:18:18.320 the disruptors

01:18:19.200 basically an

01:18:20.140 EMP, but

01:18:20.880 a micro

01:18:21.880 size, not

01:18:22.580 like a

01:18:22.920 nuclear weapon?

01:18:25.220 I'll try to

01:18:25.960 get that

01:18:26.460 lingo down.

01:18:28.620 Well, according

01:18:29.540 to the

01:18:29.760 University of

01:18:30.340 Birmingham,

01:18:30.880 there's a

01:18:31.380 freshwater

01:18:32.860 algae that

01:18:34.340 could be the

01:18:34.700 next super

01:18:35.480 food.

01:18:37.440 I would

01:18:38.080 like to do

01:18:38.660 your comments

01:18:39.440 now before

01:18:40.020 you write

01:18:40.400 them.

01:18:41.400 I ain't

01:18:41.820 going to

01:18:42.120 eat no

01:18:42.940 algae.

01:18:43.360 You can't

01:18:44.760 take my

01:18:45.240 beef away.

01:18:47.040 You can't

01:18:47.820 make me

01:18:48.240 bugs, your

01:18:49.420 world economic

01:18:50.260 forum.

01:18:51.300 I'll never

01:18:51.820 eat bugs.

01:18:52.920 I'm not

01:18:53.400 going to

01:18:53.540 eat your

01:18:53.860 algae.

01:18:55.120 I already

01:18:55.800 have algae

01:18:56.240 in my

01:18:56.600 swimming pool.

01:18:57.540 I don't

01:18:57.860 need your

01:18:58.200 extra algae.

01:18:59.160 I'll just

01:18:59.500 go lick the

01:19:00.060 sides of my

01:19:00.500 swimming pool

01:19:01.020 if I want

01:19:01.440 algae.

01:19:02.320 Stop talking

01:19:03.040 to me,

01:19:03.400 Scott.

01:19:03.860 Stop talking.

01:19:04.900 Shut up.

01:19:05.700 Nobody's

01:19:06.080 going to eat

01:19:06.380 algae.

01:19:07.020 It's going

01:19:07.280 to taste

01:19:07.580 terrible.

01:19:08.600 Don't make

01:19:09.060 me even think

01:19:09.620 about it.

01:19:10.640 Am I good?

01:19:11.960 Did I cover

01:19:12.760 everything?

01:19:14.040 Now I can

01:19:14.720 tell you

01:19:14.960 the story.

01:19:17.500 This way

01:19:18.120 you don't

01:19:18.340 have to

01:19:18.660 type it

01:19:19.100 at the

01:19:19.500 same time

01:19:19.880 I'm

01:19:20.060 talking.

01:19:21.680 But it's

01:19:22.340 called

01:19:22.860 Chlorella

01:19:24.500 Vulgaris.

01:19:27.560 I love

01:19:28.220 the name

01:19:28.520 of that.

01:19:29.380 Doesn't

01:19:29.840 that sound

01:19:30.200 like a

01:19:30.700 Disney

01:19:31.600 movie

01:19:32.140 villainous?

01:19:34.240 Oh,

01:19:34.660 look out.

01:19:35.500 It's

01:19:35.740 Chlorella

01:19:36.420 Vulgaris.

01:19:38.240 Part of

01:19:40.000 the

01:19:40.120 Vulgaris

01:19:40.660 family.

01:19:41.020 Anyway,

01:19:42.900 so apparently

01:19:43.420 it's got

01:19:44.300 a lot

01:19:44.720 of nutrients

01:19:45.480 and protein,

01:19:46.540 which is

01:19:46.860 the hard

01:19:47.180 part.

01:19:48.260 And it's

01:19:49.000 not so

01:19:49.380 much that

01:19:49.760 you would

01:19:50.040 eat it.

01:19:50.580 It might

01:19:50.980 be incorporated

01:19:51.820 with other

01:19:53.380 foods.

01:19:54.380 I don't

01:19:54.820 know what

01:19:55.020 that means.

01:19:55.760 But if

01:19:56.600 they can

01:19:56.860 make it

01:19:57.220 tasteless,

01:19:58.100 but it

01:19:58.760 has all

01:19:59.080 the nutrients,

01:19:59.820 then you

01:20:00.180 can maybe

01:20:00.520 mix it

01:20:01.040 in with

01:20:01.380 some kinds

01:20:02.040 of foods.

01:20:03.460 But what

01:20:04.100 I wondered

01:20:04.540 is,

01:20:05.680 since it's

01:20:06.240 a freshwater

01:20:07.040 algae,

01:20:08.660 could you

01:20:09.360 grow it

01:20:09.700 at home?

01:20:11.080 You know,

01:20:11.360 I'm always

01:20:11.660 trying to

01:20:11.960 figure out

01:20:12.380 how to

01:20:12.720 do an

01:20:13.240 indoor

01:20:14.500 farm,

01:20:15.900 especially

01:20:16.380 one that

01:20:16.800 you could

01:20:17.000 just have

01:20:17.300 in your

01:20:17.520 backyard,

01:20:18.500 that would

01:20:18.860 give you

01:20:19.240 all you

01:20:19.600 needed to

01:20:20.020 eat.

01:20:20.920 Because if

01:20:21.520 you think

01:20:21.800 about it,

01:20:22.480 we now

01:20:23.140 have a

01:20:23.860 way to

01:20:24.100 be off

01:20:24.500 the grid

01:20:24.820 for

01:20:25.020 electricity,

01:20:26.600 off the

01:20:27.320 grid for

01:20:28.060 water.

01:20:28.820 You can

01:20:29.060 even take

01:20:29.440 water out

01:20:29.860 of the air

01:20:30.180 now.

01:20:30.420 And you

01:20:33.180 could have

01:20:33.440 a septic

01:20:33.900 tank if

01:20:34.380 you want

01:20:34.580 to be

01:20:34.840 off the

01:20:35.340 grid for

01:20:35.820 waste,

01:20:36.940 sort of

01:20:37.360 off the

01:20:37.620 grid.

01:20:38.960 But you

01:20:39.460 can't get

01:20:39.820 off the

01:20:40.380 grid for

01:20:40.780 food,

01:20:41.360 can you?

01:20:42.860 Food's

01:20:43.280 pretty hard

01:20:43.640 to get

01:20:43.880 off the

01:20:44.160 grid.

01:20:45.040 So if

01:20:46.360 somebody

01:20:46.640 finds a

01:20:47.220 protein

01:20:47.780 source that

01:20:49.800 you could

01:20:50.120 grow in

01:20:50.540 a little

01:20:50.940 pool in

01:20:52.980 your backyard,

01:20:53.800 you know,

01:20:53.960 not the

01:20:54.300 size of a

01:20:54.800 swimming pool,

01:20:55.520 but something

01:20:56.040 smaller,

01:20:57.040 that would

01:20:57.400 be kind

01:20:57.680 of interesting.

01:20:59.460 Now,

01:20:59.860 I can

01:21:00.220 also

01:21:00.460 imagine

01:21:00.900 someday

01:21:01.300 in the

01:21:01.580 future

01:21:01.860 that our

01:21:03.280 food will

01:21:03.700 be like

01:21:04.020 the

01:21:04.220 replicators

01:21:04.860 on Star

01:21:05.380 Trek.

01:21:06.320 So I

01:21:07.020 can imagine

01:21:07.460 something like

01:21:08.080 this freshwater

01:21:09.140 algae being

01:21:10.880 used as the

01:21:11.720 printer ink and

01:21:14.060 mixed with

01:21:15.120 different seasonings

01:21:16.060 so that you

01:21:17.880 basically say,

01:21:18.900 give me a

01:21:19.220 hamburger.

01:21:19.920 And it

01:21:20.040 just prints

01:21:21.740 a hamburger.

01:21:22.680 And it's got

01:21:23.400 like a bun and

01:21:24.240 a pickle on it

01:21:25.060 and a piece of

01:21:26.000 lettuce and

01:21:26.500 everything.

01:21:27.640 But the

01:21:29.400 ink is

01:21:31.840 made by the

01:21:32.580 algae.

01:21:34.220 I don't

01:21:34.780 want to eat

01:21:35.080 no algae.

01:21:35.680 Stop making

01:21:36.180 me eat

01:21:36.560 bugs.

01:21:36.900 I'm not

01:21:37.200 going to

01:21:37.380 lick my

01:21:37.760 swimming pool.

01:21:38.560 I want

01:21:38.960 beef.

01:21:39.700 Why are you

01:21:40.120 stopping it?

01:21:40.600 Stop it,

01:21:41.740 you World

01:21:42.220 Economic Forum

01:21:43.120 shill.

01:21:44.360 All right.

01:21:45.380 I think we've

01:21:46.180 covered that.

01:21:48.260 And that,

01:21:49.000 ladies and

01:21:49.300 gentlemen,

01:21:49.500 is all I have

01:21:50.140 to say this

01:21:50.580 morning.

01:21:51.660 I'm going

01:21:51.940 to talk to

01:21:52.380 the locals

01:21:53.680 people privately.

01:21:56.480 EMI versus

01:21:57.340 EMF.

01:21:59.220 Is that what

01:21:59.920 I should have

01:22:00.240 said?

01:22:00.500 EMI?

01:22:02.080 I thought

01:22:02.600 EMI was a

01:22:03.560 company in

01:22:04.840 the music

01:22:05.340 field.

01:22:08.020 Boy in

01:22:08.680 green.

01:22:12.200 How do

01:22:12.800 they make

01:22:13.160 squid ink

01:22:13.880 pasta?

01:22:14.600 I have no

01:22:15.100 idea.

01:22:15.420 All right.

01:22:23.020 You could

01:22:23.440 talk about

01:22:23.920 algae all

01:22:24.460 day.

01:22:29.180 Well,

01:22:30.080 all right.

01:22:31.660 EMI is

01:22:32.380 jamming.

01:22:33.100 Okay.

01:22:33.660 So EMI,

01:22:34.840 electromagnetic

01:22:35.480 interference.

01:22:36.780 There we go.

01:22:37.680 EMI was what

01:22:38.440 I was looking

01:22:38.860 for.

01:22:40.280 What does

01:22:40.960 Lindsey

01:22:41.300 Graham say?

01:22:41.880 Lindsey

01:22:45.200 Graham will

01:22:45.840 vote to

01:22:46.320 confirm

01:22:46.700 Tulsi,

01:22:47.560 RFK,

01:22:49.300 Good.

01:22:50.620 Lindsey

01:22:51.000 Graham,

01:22:51.680 if he

01:22:51.900 would not

01:22:52.300 voted for

01:22:53.640 those three,

01:22:55.080 he'd have

01:22:55.880 a tough

01:22:56.200 time.

01:22:58.060 I don't

01:22:58.740 want to

01:22:58.980 sound like

01:22:59.460 Schumer,

01:23:00.820 but
