00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:00:13.660 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. There's never been a better time.
00:00:16.340 But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that only the International Space Station can even possibly understand,
00:00:24.180 all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or chelsea, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:30.000 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:00:32.940 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:37.760 It's called, that's right, the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go.
00:00:49.840 You say you're here for the coffee and the ambiance? Well, this is the place to get it.
00:00:55.120 We got coffee. We got ambiance. There's a new study, according to the SciPost.
00:01:02.180 The Journal of Psychopharmacology says that coffee affects people differently based on their genes.
00:01:10.660 That's right. If you've got the right kind of genes, the coffee is going to affect you just right.
00:01:16.120 Now, I must have those kind of genes, but I like to marinate my genes in coffee.
00:01:23.100 Yeah, just let them marinate and possibly mutate.
00:01:27.780 If the coffee will make my genes mutate, good for me.
00:01:32.440 Maybe it turned me into a better person.
00:01:35.000 In other news, Microsoft is going to permanently shut down Skype.
00:01:38.920 There will be no more Skyping.
00:01:42.760 How much did you hate using Skype?
00:01:48.280 Oh, my God. It was a nightmare every time I tried to use it.
00:01:52.440 But I haven't Skyped anybody in a long time.
00:01:55.440 I guess there are reasons for that.
00:01:57.600 So, being shut down.
00:01:59.800 In other news, MIT, we'll talk about Epstein, of course.
00:02:03.740 But in other news, MIT has developed a robot bees to replace regular bees for farming so they can pollinate stuff.
00:02:16.500 So, they've got this little tiny bee robot drone that's the size of a bee, and it can go pollinate plants.
00:02:25.660 Why is it that every single robot technology sounds scary?
00:02:32.380 Okay, they can now build a swarm of robot bees.
00:02:38.560 I don't see how that could go wrong.
00:02:42.280 But in robot news, the company Figure, that's one of the leading humanoid robot makers,
00:02:50.800 their CEO says they're aiming to start alpha testing in homes this year.
00:02:56.900 So, who wants to be first?
00:02:59.480 I guess it'll beat Tesla, so the Tesla robots won't be here as quickly as the figure robots, but maybe.
00:03:09.400 But the interesting thing was about this, not just that it's coming,
00:03:14.540 but that the company says that they're advancing faster than anybody anticipated.
00:03:20.520 Now, what do you think caused that?
00:03:24.120 Why do you think the robot development, which they thought they'd roll out in two years,
00:03:29.480 why do you think it suddenly became faster?
00:03:33.660 And I wonder if it's anything to do with DeepSeek.
00:03:38.200 So, DeepSeek kind of taught them how to be more efficient.
00:03:42.100 And I imagine all the AI companies said, oh, let's take their little secrets and build it into our product.
00:03:50.160 So, I wonder if the Chinese AI, I'm just speculating, I wonder if that's what sped things up.
00:03:57.160 Because you could do more with less.
00:03:59.740 You know, you could have just a localized AI that wouldn't absolutely depend on being connected to the net.
00:04:07.080 So, maybe that's part of it.
00:04:09.280 I don't know.
00:04:10.800 Well, do you remember my prediction about the Epstein files from yesterday?
00:04:17.960 So, there's nothing I enjoy more when it comes to this sort of stuff than making an unusual prediction that just nails it.
00:04:27.640 So, while the entire country and the world and the credible people from the president to Pam Bondi to Kash Patel were all saying,
00:04:35.700 oh, we're going to get you those Epstein files.
00:04:39.460 And then it turned into, yep, yep, absolutely.
00:04:44.080 They're going to be handed over to us and we're going to release them and it's going to be yesterday.
00:04:49.360 And then I double down on my prediction.
00:04:52.340 Nope.
00:04:53.460 The only thing you'll see are things you've seen before, like flight logs.
00:04:57.940 And what did they release?
00:05:00.300 They released the only things you've seen before, the flight logs.
00:05:03.980 And they don't have anything else.
00:05:08.240 Now, part of why I do this show and one of the big themes is I make unusual predictions.
00:05:17.080 And the more unusual they are when they come in, just the more it tells you that there's something about the technique that might be valid.
00:05:28.720 So, I always say that the only thing that's real is prediction.
00:05:32.140 Because you can have all kinds of beliefs about what reality is.
00:05:36.500 But if your belief in reality doesn't predict, well, I'm not so sure you have the right reality.
00:05:43.760 But if my understanding of reality consistently predicts some of the most unpredictable things,
00:05:51.760 well, then maybe you should take a look at my frames and how I do it.
00:05:57.920 So, in this frame, I simply started with the fact that if the Epstein files are anything like we suspect they are,
00:06:08.080 there isn't any way they'll be released.
00:06:10.820 There's no world in which those will ever be released.
00:06:14.880 You know, I'd love to be wrong.
00:06:16.300 And then I would admit I'm wrong.
00:06:19.180 But I definitely nailed it this time.
00:06:21.820 I think you're going to have to give it to me this time.
00:06:24.880 So, I did publicly say more than once, yeah, you're not going to get anything but what you've already seen.
00:06:31.460 Now, the real question is, let me ask this question.
00:06:36.760 Where is Kash Patel?
00:06:38.560 Now, allegedly, Pam Bondi is saying that, is it the Southern District of New York FBI office allegedly has all these files
00:06:51.220 and that they're going to release them any second and that they didn't.
00:07:00.160 And then some whistleblower says they're destroying the files.
00:07:05.120 Where's Kash Patel?
00:07:06.460 Well, is he still alive?
00:07:12.740 Isn't the most important person in the country right now, Kash Patel?
00:07:17.980 Because the president promised us, Kash Patel promised us, Pam Bondi promised us,
00:07:27.640 and every one of them are credible.
00:07:29.960 Like, I don't think any one of them were lying.
00:07:31.860 I think they actually intended to release it.
00:07:35.340 But I've seen Pam Bondi.
00:07:38.040 I've seen the president.
00:07:39.900 I haven't seen even a photo from Kash Patel.
00:07:45.840 I'm starting to worry about him a little bit.
00:07:49.540 Like, actually, I'd want a sign of life.
00:07:52.760 Let me say it again.
00:07:54.400 I'm not sure he's alive.
00:07:58.400 Right?
00:08:00.840 Under what scenario would we not hear from Kash Patel yesterday?
00:08:05.600 Can you think of any scenario in which he would be quiet all of yesterday?
00:08:14.420 He released a statement on X.
00:08:17.800 So we didn't see him.
00:08:19.260 There was just a statement.
00:08:20.820 What did the statement say?
00:08:22.240 I didn't see it.
00:08:25.100 Did he say we're working on it?
00:08:26.840 I don't know.
00:08:32.120 The statement on X isn't good enough.
00:08:34.740 Do you think he's tied to a chair somewhere?
00:08:37.340 I think he's tied to a chair.
00:08:39.900 So he must be alive, but tied to a chair.
00:08:42.040 So I would say that we don't know anything about this.
00:08:47.460 But here's some context from Mike Benz.
00:08:50.580 And this is from way before today.
00:08:53.800 He showed a video, and he's talked about this.
00:08:56.400 Mike Benz says,
00:08:57.500 the FBI hides critical damning evidence about FBI informants.
00:09:02.300 Hmm.
00:09:03.460 Would that suggest that Epstein is an FBI informant?
00:09:08.320 Hmm.
00:09:08.880 Possibly.
00:09:09.920 We wouldn't know.
00:09:10.860 But apparently they create a separate set of FBI books,
00:09:15.280 one to show people who ask if they get audited, I guess,
00:09:20.840 or if the boss asks.
00:09:22.980 And then there's a real one that are for eyes only,
00:09:27.940 and only two people are ever allowed to access them.
00:09:32.780 So apparently it's standard procedure in the FBI
00:09:36.260 to protect informants.
00:09:38.640 And they do it even, you know,
00:09:42.520 at the risk of not telling their own bosses.
00:09:45.900 That's pretty extreme.
00:09:47.380 Might be, it might actually be a good thing
00:09:49.140 because it keeps the informants safer,
00:09:51.260 and then you get better informants.
00:09:57.660 You've been had.
00:09:58.640 Okay.
00:10:00.340 So here's what I think.
00:10:01.980 Oh, hold on.
00:10:02.820 Is that Cash Patel's statement?
00:10:04.480 I think somebody's sending it.
00:10:05.660 Okay.
00:10:05.980 All right.
00:10:06.400 Here it is.
00:10:06.840 Cash Patel.
00:10:08.840 The FBI is entering a new era,
00:10:10.960 one that will be defined by integrity,
00:10:12.640 blah, blah, blah.
00:10:13.320 There will be no cover-ups,
00:10:14.520 blah, blah, blah.
00:10:17.980 It's just generic.
00:10:19.780 It's just generic.
00:10:20.840 It's nothing about the Epstein files.
00:10:26.620 Okay.
00:10:29.460 So is it a case where the FBI
00:10:32.020 is protecting their own informant
00:10:34.760 or the FBI is protecting themselves?
00:10:38.920 Now, many of you have been telling me for a long time
00:10:41.980 that Epstein was a Mossad agent.
00:10:44.720 I saw Mike Cernovich pushing back on that
00:10:47.760 as being oversimplified.
00:10:49.940 I would agree with the oversimplified
00:10:52.580 because just walk through this logically.
00:10:57.560 Let's say Epstein started as an Israeli spy, 0.87
00:11:04.680 and it was a blackmail thing,
00:11:07.040 so he could give Israel people to blackmail, 0.72
00:11:11.200 I guess, in the United States.
00:11:12.640 Now, do you think there's any chance
00:11:16.140 that our own government
00:11:18.260 would not have discovered that
00:11:19.700 and known that he was an Israeli spy
00:11:22.500 if he was, if he was?
00:11:25.820 And what would have happened
00:11:27.220 if our government discovered
00:11:29.300 that he was doing all this blackmail stuff?
00:11:32.260 Would they put him in jail?
00:11:36.080 Maybe.
00:11:37.260 But you also wouldn't know
00:11:38.880 where he hid all the blackmail stuff,
00:11:40.580 and maybe he had some blackmail
00:11:42.600 on people you don't want to go down.
00:11:47.840 So, if I were the U.S. government,
00:11:50.480 let's say I'm in the FBI,
00:11:52.540 and I found out that there was this foreign spy
00:11:55.260 doing all this blackmail stuff,
00:11:57.280 I would pull him into the office
00:11:59.180 and say, here's the deal.
00:12:01.040 You're either going to jail
00:12:02.320 because we caught you,
00:12:04.340 or you're working for us now.
00:12:06.520 Which one is more likely?
00:12:11.460 And what are the odds
00:12:13.020 that somebody who had this, you know,
00:12:14.400 superpower of blackmailing people,
00:12:16.880 what are the odds
00:12:17.740 that you'd only have one client,
00:12:21.120 meaning that he's only servicing one country
00:12:23.340 or servicing one entity within one country?
00:12:27.480 I would guess that he probably freelanced a bit
00:12:30.360 and that I don't have any doubt
00:12:33.160 that there was blackmail involved
00:12:34.820 in his business model,
00:12:36.720 but it is a little simplistic
00:12:39.500 to say that he had one boss
00:12:41.480 because he doesn't seem like the kind of guy
00:12:44.680 who would have one boss for long.
00:12:47.440 So, we'll find out.
00:12:49.500 In an unrelated story,
00:12:52.020 but maybe related,
00:12:54.040 it's part of a bigger trend.
00:12:56.200 And Insurrection Barbie points out
00:12:58.280 that James Comey's daughter,
00:13:02.740 adult daughter,
00:13:04.880 Maureen Comey,
00:13:06.400 she's an assistant U.S. attorney
00:13:07.940 for the Southern District of New York.
00:13:13.240 And she's been in that office,
00:13:17.480 with the office since 2015.
00:13:22.040 And then she worked on the Jeffrey Epstein case.
00:13:27.000 So, Comey's daughter
00:13:28.360 worked on the Epstein case.
00:13:31.280 That's interesting,
00:13:32.700 but that's just a coincidence.
00:13:35.000 She also worked on the Ghislaine Maxwell trial.
00:13:39.300 Oh, okay.
00:13:40.400 Well, that makes sense.
00:13:42.580 If she was involved in one,
00:13:43.840 it would make sense
00:13:44.440 to bring that expertise over to the other one.
00:13:47.260 And she just joined,
00:13:49.100 in December 2024,
00:13:50.480 she joined in the Sean Diddy trial stuff.
00:13:56.200 That, you know,
00:13:56.900 hasn't been a trial yet,
00:13:58.100 but she's part of that process.
00:14:01.280 So,
00:14:02.200 so the suspicion is,
00:14:05.840 but I don't go that far.
00:14:07.400 I don't think there's any dots to connect yet.
00:14:10.340 It's suspicious that she seems to get the most high profile.
00:14:18.180 Maybe there's something else going on.
00:14:20.780 Maybe they're an informant kind of case.
00:14:24.200 But here's the other way to look at it.
00:14:28.180 There,
00:14:28.720 there's no specific,
00:14:30.420 you know,
00:14:30.840 there's no smoking gun or anything that would suggest you do anything illegal or inappropriate or,
00:14:35.520 or anything.
00:14:36.200 But here's the problem.
00:14:39.800 Whenever you have a,
00:14:41.180 these days,
00:14:42.100 whenever you have a high profile government person,
00:14:46.080 they're often married to another high profile government person. 0.99
00:14:50.000 And if they have a child,
00:14:53.300 it's going to be a high profile child.
00:14:57.560 Who's going to have a big job somewhere.
00:15:00.640 So there's nothing unusual about high profile people having good jobs.
00:15:07.660 And the,
00:15:08.540 and the children of those people having even better jobs.
00:15:12.760 That's the most normal thing in the world.
00:15:14.560 It's,
00:15:14.980 you wouldn't need a,
00:15:16.300 you wouldn't need a conspiracy for that stuff to happen.
00:15:19.040 It would just be high profile people doing high profile stuff,
00:15:22.680 but it does open up the possibility.
00:15:26.280 And we've seen so many examples where one spouse is in exactly the right place to help the other spouse.
00:15:33.740 You know,
00:15:34.520 the situation like there's a Congress person who's voting for funding for USA ID for some NGO.
00:15:42.660 And then the spouse is on the NGO,
00:15:45.360 the consultant for the NGO.
00:15:47.700 Yeah.
00:15:48.260 So there's a million ways to launder money and launder the law just because of family connections.
00:15:55.760 And there really needs to be some way for us to identify and root that out and get rid of the conflict of interest.
00:16:03.040 Cause it's a massive problem,
00:16:04.980 but I don't know anything about specifically the Comey situation.
00:16:12.040 Anyway,
00:16:12.480 speaking of Comey, 0.78
00:16:13.660 the Washington times was reporting that Comey,
00:16:17.580 the senior is being investigated for what they call a honeypot operation.
00:16:22.060 I think Fox news reported it as the honeypot meant sleeping with members of the Trump team to get,
00:16:31.240 you know,
00:16:31.940 to find any crimes without knowing any specific things that they were looking for.
00:16:36.120 Now,
00:16:37.000 if it's true,
00:16:37.820 it would suggest that Comey was doing something off book or out of the normal process to just get Trump.
00:16:47.080 And that would be very bad.
00:16:49.240 I don't know if there's a crime involved there exactly,
00:16:51.900 or even how unusual that is for the FBI to do something off the books.
00:16:55.880 It's probably not that unusual,
00:16:57.380 but,
00:16:58.640 uh,
00:16:58.840 yeah,
00:16:59.200 that should be investigated,
00:17:00.620 but I will just quibble with one part of it,
00:17:03.340 which is the honeypot part,
00:17:05.760 um,
00:17:07.200 specifically means,
00:17:08.540 you know,
00:17:09.740 an attractive woman, 0.60
00:17:10.840 or if somebody is gay and attractive guy or attractive woman for the lesbian,
00:17:15.460 whatever.
00:17:16.020 So,
00:17:16.580 but I think the model is more like the,
00:17:19.060 the O'Keefe media group model where you just get somebody to go on a date.
00:17:24.440 And the other person gets liquored up and they think that if they impress their date,
00:17:30.060 they're going to get some action,
00:17:31.160 but it's,
00:17:32.680 you know,
00:17:32.780 they don't get any action.
00:17:34.140 So I don't think the honeypot really meant sleep with them.
00:17:39.460 Uh,
00:17:40.040 I don't believe so.
00:17:41.380 Now I'm not saying that's never happened anywhere.
00:17:43.700 You know,
00:17:43.940 I'm not saying the CIA has never done it,
00:17:45.980 but I would suspect that what they're calling honeypot really means more of a fake date and fake flirting and fake interest.
00:17:54.440 Just guessing.
00:17:55.760 But that's,
00:17:56.160 that's my take.
00:17:58.260 Anyway,
00:17:58.760 we'll see if that goes anywhere.
00:18:00.100 This is all fog of war.
00:18:02.420 There's one source,
00:18:03.660 the Washington times.
00:18:05.520 I would wait on this one.
00:18:07.920 Uh,
00:18:08.160 I'd,
00:18:08.440 I'd wait to see if there really is an investigation.
00:18:11.780 And then if there is one,
00:18:13.180 was it really a honeypot?
00:18:15.560 Yeah.
00:18:16.180 It's a little bit,
00:18:17.140 it's a little bit too close to on the nose.
00:18:20.360 So I'm not going to automatically say this is all true,
00:18:23.120 but it's interesting.
00:18:26.660 Mike Benz is asking the question,
00:18:28.520 reminding us that the January 6th pipe bomb,
00:18:33.380 a placer,
00:18:35.200 the person who hasn't been identified,
00:18:37.760 who suspiciously put a pipe bomb in a place that even Kamala Harris walked by and, 1.00
00:18:43.380 and ordinary citizens were walking by even after it had been,
00:18:47.440 you know,
00:18:48.180 pointed out to law enforcement.
00:18:49.660 And so there's something suspicious about the pipe bomber and the pipe bomb.
00:18:57.380 Uh,
00:18:57.900 but as,
00:18:58.960 uh,
00:18:59.240 Benz points out,
00:19:00.120 the video shows the pipe bomber talking on the phone right before he planted the bomb.
00:19:05.920 Now,
00:19:06.740 could it be that it was just something from his spouse?
00:19:11.420 Could it be,
00:19:12.260 it was just an ordinary phone call and that's just when he took it or maybe that call was placed to a
00:19:19.520 confederate,
00:19:20.620 somebody who was working with.
00:19:22.460 And then likewise Benz points out that,
00:19:25.640 um,
00:19:27.780 the Thomas Crooks,
00:19:29.260 a guy who tried to kill the president,
00:19:31.980 the one who shot him in the ear and Butler,
00:19:34.200 that he was also spotted and he's on video as making a phone call,
00:19:38.480 uh,
00:19:40.200 fairly soon before he,
00:19:41.800 uh,
00:19:42.100 shot the president.
00:19:44.120 Who was he talking to?
00:19:46.200 Now,
00:19:46.840 how do we not know by now?
00:19:48.460 Do you think that the government doesn't have a way given that they know the time?
00:19:54.400 They know at the exact time.
00:19:56.680 And you don't think that they could identify who made a phone call.
00:20:02.040 And we don't know.
00:20:05.740 So I think,
00:20:06.920 uh,
00:20:07.440 the only,
00:20:07.960 the only way to understand this is that,
00:20:09.700 uh,
00:20:10.780 I think the information about who they were calling the pipe bomber on January 6th and also Thomas Crooks,
00:20:16.200 I think it's in the Epstein file.
00:20:20.340 Cause otherwise,
00:20:21.800 how could you possibly explain that?
00:20:23.780 We haven't been told yet.
00:20:26.460 It's all in the Epstein files.
00:20:28.520 People should they actually exist.
00:20:31.020 Anyway,
00:20:34.020 um,
00:20:34.620 a senior aid,
00:20:35.980 according to POC,
00:20:37.760 and then New York Post is reporting what POC had,
00:20:41.300 uh,
00:20:41.560 according to POC,
00:20:42.600 which is a publication,
00:20:44.060 um,
00:20:44.680 a senior aid for the,
00:20:46.140 uh,
00:20:47.060 Joe Biden,
00:20:48.300 uh,
00:20:49.640 administration,
00:20:50.600 I guess it was a senior aid for Jill Biden,
00:20:52.520 uh,
00:20:53.360 sort of admitted that they all knew that Biden was a problem.
00:20:57.680 And they were frightened to death when he ever had had any opportunity to speak off the cuff in public.
00:21:05.260 And,
00:21:05.860 uh,
00:21:06.420 it was exactly what you thought it was.
00:21:10.440 Everybody was aware from day one that his age was a big problem and they tried to manage it because it was a big problem.
00:21:18.240 Now he,
00:21:18.940 he also could tries to soften it and say,
00:21:21.580 well,
00:21:21.940 you know,
00:21:22.580 it's just routine for people who are a certain age to which I say,
00:21:26.820 uh,
00:21:27.680 no,
00:21:27.940 it isn't not if you're the president.
00:21:30.580 That's not routine to cover up your infirmities.
00:21:33.760 If they're mental routine to cover up your mental infirmities.
00:21:38.540 Now I do suspect that it happened with Reagan.
00:21:41.580 You know,
00:21:42.180 I think Ronald Reagan was,
00:21:43.480 you know,
00:21:44.840 well into his,
00:21:45.920 his,
00:21:46.540 uh,
00:21:47.080 dementia phase while he was still president.
00:21:49.840 And that was probably covered up a little bit.
00:21:52.980 I mean,
00:21:53.400 the press did report on it.
00:21:55.180 It was in the news,
00:21:56.500 but,
00:21:57.880 uh,
00:21:58.480 probably was also stuff covered up.
00:22:00.660 So yeah,
00:22:01.860 it's a little bit common,
00:22:03.300 but it's not acceptable.
00:22:07.620 Well,
00:22:08.140 Elon Musk has floated the idea of giving members of Congress a big raise.
00:22:12.680 If it could possibly prevent them from using corruption to augment their income.
00:22:19.220 Now I get the idea that if you were paid so well,
00:22:23.060 you would just say,
00:22:24.360 Hmm,
00:22:24.560 I'll just take the pay.
00:22:25.780 I don't need to be corrupt as well.
00:22:27.880 But I think that with so many members of Congress,
00:22:31.420 you're still going to find plenty of people who want to be corrupt because their pay isn't enough,
00:22:37.940 no matter what the pay is.
00:22:39.380 But what would it take to pay a member of Congress?
00:22:43.100 They currently get 174,000 per year,
00:22:46.260 which really isn't enough to live on.
00:22:48.880 If you have a home and a family back in your home state,
00:22:53.160 and then you also have to spend all your time in Washington,
00:22:56.120 it's not even close to,
00:22:59.140 to enough.
00:22:59.700 So if any of them are doing a little extra,
00:23:02.820 you know what I mean?
00:23:04.060 A little extra.
00:23:06.720 You could certainly see how the temptation would be through the roof.
00:23:10.920 But would that work?
00:23:14.140 I would go this far,
00:23:16.180 but not any further.
00:23:17.920 I would give them a big raise,
00:23:19.820 but only in the form of a bonus.
00:23:22.600 It would not be guaranteed.
00:23:24.880 And the bonus would be zero if they don't balance the budget.
00:23:27.900 And it would be substantial if they do.
00:23:32.700 What do you think of that?
00:23:34.180 And I wouldn't look at anything else.
00:23:36.220 I would say,
00:23:36.960 if you can balance my budget,
00:23:38.680 I'll give you an extra 300,000 per year.
00:23:43.200 Your current pay is 174.
00:23:46.180 But we'll give you on top of that,
00:23:48.420 300,000 per year.
00:23:50.980 If you just balance the budget and you didn't do any tricks,
00:23:54.380 it's actually balanced.
00:23:56.280 Would that be worth it?
00:23:57.900 Do you know how many trillions of dollars we would have saved
00:24:01.960 if Congress knew that each one of them could get an extra $300,000
00:24:06.760 for balancing the budget?
00:24:09.520 We would have a very balanced budget.
00:24:13.180 So,
00:24:14.200 yes on the concept,
00:24:17.140 but only as a paper for performance.
00:24:21.800 You don't get,
00:24:22.580 I'm not going to pay you $500,000 a year or something for showing up.
00:24:28.500 It's not good enough just to show up.
00:24:31.380 You're going to have to,
00:24:32.160 you're going to have to show me that you did the most important thing,
00:24:35.000 as in balance the budget.
00:24:37.280 You could also imagine that you might have some other,
00:24:44.180 I don't know who would be the one in charge of giving them goals,
00:24:47.660 but you could also imagine if they don't secure the border,
00:24:51.780 but I guess you could say that's more of the president's job.
00:24:55.820 Anyway,
00:24:56.420 next story.
00:24:56.940 So according to the post-millennial and some other places,
00:25:05.040 the Trump's department of justice is going to do hate crime indictments
00:25:09.140 against the campus activists who are supporting Hamas.
00:25:14.580 So that would make them sort of pro-terrorist and anti-Israel,
00:25:20.140 at least.
00:25:21.420 And here's something I didn't know.
00:25:22.720 I didn't know Leo Terrell.
00:25:25.480 Do you all know who Leo Terrell is?
00:25:27.780 He's often on Fox news.
00:25:30.280 And he's a,
00:25:31.040 he's a black lawyer,
00:25:33.320 but weirdly he's on the justice task force to combat anti-Semitism.
00:25:40.040 It's kind of weird that a non-Jewish guy would be on the anti-Semitism thing,
00:25:44.920 but there's no reason it couldn't be.
00:25:47.280 Right.
00:25:47.980 I mean,
00:25:48.400 if he has the right skills and he has the right interests,
00:25:50.740 and he has the right incentives and he cares about the issue,
00:25:54.180 why not?
00:25:55.480 So that's a DEI.
00:25:57.400 I don't,
00:25:57.740 I don't mind meaning that it's not DEI,
00:26:00.640 meaning that they just thought he was the right person.
00:26:04.420 That's,
00:26:04.900 that's my take on it.
00:26:05.840 I think they just think he's the right person.
00:26:07.740 So he announced that they're doing this federal hate crime indictments and
00:26:10.780 people are going to go to jail for supporting Hamas and trying to
00:26:14.900 intimidate Jews. 0.96
00:26:15.840 Now here's one of those cases where I think the public again has to watch
00:26:21.180 carefully because if this moves from obvious criminal behavior all the way
00:26:28.620 to something political,
00:26:30.920 that's,
00:26:32.620 you know,
00:26:32.840 I can't support that.
00:26:34.460 Right.
00:26:34.620 So if,
00:26:35.400 if they're just jailing people for political reasons and they haven't done
00:26:38.840 something we can identify as an actual crime on the books,
00:26:42.880 then it's kind of a free speech thing.
00:26:45.840 You know,
00:26:46.060 obviously I'm opposed to the pro Hamas wing of,
00:26:50.880 wing of the public,
00:26:52.280 but,
00:26:53.200 uh,
00:26:53.580 I'm also opposed to going too far into the politicization and,
00:26:59.440 and lawfare of it.
00:27:00.720 I don't see it yet,
00:27:02.080 but this is one of the things you want to keep your eyes on.
00:27:08.360 Um,
00:27:09.080 let me give you a little background that Victor Davis Hanson gives us.
00:27:16.140 Um,
00:27:16.580 I liked the way he worded this.
00:27:17.900 He said at some point,
00:27:19.320 um,
00:27:19.840 some president was going to have to stop the unsustainable spending and
00:27:24.540 borrowing to which I said,
00:27:26.420 yeah,
00:27:26.700 at some point somebody had to do it when it got bad enough,
00:27:31.560 whoever was president was going to have to do it.
00:27:33.580 It just happens to be Trump.
00:27:35.300 And then he says,
00:27:36.400 uh,
00:27:37.600 to have any country left,
00:27:39.060 uh,
00:27:39.460 some president would eventually have had to restore the borders and stop
00:27:43.520 the influx of 3 million illegals.
00:27:45.720 Yes,
00:27:46.140 that's true.
00:27:47.180 You,
00:27:47.440 you couldn't let that just keep running.
00:27:49.600 So some president had to stop it.
00:27:51.700 And then some commander in chief,
00:27:55.060 he says would finally have to stop the,
00:27:57.960 uh,
00:27:58.200 the theater wars abroad.
00:28:01.300 Um,
00:28:01.900 but any president who dared to do any of that would be damned for
00:28:04.880 curving the madness that his predecessors fueled.
00:28:08.420 And this gets back to that common sense thing.
00:28:14.140 Trump's approach of common sense is really a big club
00:28:19.140 because he can fight madness in every domain.
00:28:23.260 Is that common sense?
00:28:25.160 No,
00:28:25.500 you know,
00:28:25.900 it's not,
00:28:26.600 we're going to do common sense next topic.
00:28:29.960 Okay.
00:28:30.540 Is what you're doing?
00:28:31.480 Common sense.
00:28:32.460 No,
00:28:33.060 you know,
00:28:33.500 it's not common sense.
00:28:35.240 Stop doing it.
00:28:36.700 So that's a really powerful tool.
00:28:39.120 You need to be second,
00:28:40.540 second term president with balls of steel and the common sense as your
00:28:46.620 sword and a whole bunch of really capable people backing you to get any of
00:28:52.000 those critical things done.
00:28:53.500 And those are all existential threats.
00:28:56.160 You know,
00:28:56.400 those are all end of the Republic threats.
00:28:59.200 And Trump is just a singular unique character who has the exact right
00:29:05.260 personality experience and just the right situation.
00:29:09.900 that he could actually do those three things.
00:29:13.060 It's kind of impressive.
00:29:15.780 I keep hearing on the news,
00:29:17.420 the Democrats claiming that the Republicans are going to gut Medicaid or did
00:29:22.100 gut Medicaid.
00:29:23.600 The Daily Caller News Foundation,
00:29:25.980 Adam Pack is talking about that as basically a hoax.
00:29:28.840 because they don't present any evidence that anything like that happened.
00:29:34.360 Now I kind of backed off of that because I heard the accusations and I knew
00:29:40.720 that a budget had been agreed upon by at least the house.
00:29:44.840 And I thought maybe,
00:29:47.240 you know,
00:29:47.840 maybe they thought it was that much waste and abuse.
00:29:51.760 Maybe there was something to it,
00:29:53.640 but is that true?
00:29:55.060 Is it true that the mainstream media and the Democrats have been just wildly
00:30:01.020 claiming that there's cuts and something that would be like the last thing
00:30:05.380 that the public would be willing to accept cuts and Medicaid.
00:30:10.000 And is that just the new hoax?
00:30:14.360 Is that the brand new hoax?
00:30:17.560 It might be,
00:30:18.880 but the fact that the mainstream media can still support a hoax of that
00:30:23.200 magnitude.
00:30:25.060 That's pretty impressive in an evil way.
00:30:29.080 It's impressive.
00:30:30.680 Anyway.
00:30:32.020 So what's weird is that
00:30:34.220 if the mainstream media is the only one you're paying attention to,
00:30:41.280 you wouldn't know that's a hoax.
00:30:43.440 Because it's not like you dug into the budget yourself.
00:30:47.220 So it's pretty effective as a hoax.
00:30:49.480 But I thought I'd give you a review of the top three,
00:30:53.760 in my opinion,
00:30:55.600 Democrat hoaxes that control their base and keep them in power.
00:31:00.980 Now,
00:31:01.580 these are what I consider really obviously easily debunkable hoaxes.
00:31:06.220 But as long as the mainstream media has this captive audience of Democrats who
00:31:11.900 only watch some forms of news and not others,
00:31:15.700 they can get away with this.
00:31:18.280 And here are the three,
00:31:19.880 let's say,
00:31:21.500 the three legs of the stool
00:31:23.240 that are supporting their entire party.
00:31:28.040 Now listen to this one.
00:31:29.020 In order.
00:31:30.560 The first hoax
00:31:31.600 is that we as Americans
00:31:33.900 can somehow know whether an election was fair
00:31:37.280 and that we can know it with certainty.
00:31:40.340 Now that's just a hoax.
00:31:42.200 We don't have a system that can tell you what you don't know.
00:31:45.520 If somebody found a way to rig an election
00:31:48.980 and was not discovered,
00:31:52.280 how would we know?
00:31:55.420 How would we possibly know
00:31:57.380 if an election had been rigged by people who were so good at rigging
00:32:01.500 that they could get away with it?
00:32:04.900 The fact that
00:32:05.960 the mainstream makes people say it out loud,
00:32:09.780 they'll bring a Republican on and they'll say,
00:32:11.740 say it.
00:32:12.700 Say you think that 2020 was rigged.
00:32:15.560 Say it.
00:32:16.140 Because we know it's a fact that it was not.
00:32:18.980 That's a hoax.
00:32:20.760 They don't know that as a fact.
00:32:22.800 It's a possibility.
00:32:24.640 It's a possibility that it was fair.
00:32:27.360 It's a possibility that it wasn't fair.
00:32:30.220 We don't have any visibility into that.
00:32:33.440 None.
00:32:34.120 They don't have any visibility into it.
00:32:36.620 And they don't even know
00:32:37.940 how many ways something could be cheated.
00:32:41.580 Neither do you.
00:32:43.220 Every time something gets hacked,
00:32:45.320 think about hacking.
00:32:46.380 A company builds some network
00:32:49.700 and they think they've looked at every possibility
00:32:52.280 to protect it from being hacked.
00:32:54.680 Then what happens?
00:32:56.380 It gets hacked.
00:32:58.140 And we're talking about the best technologists in the world.
00:33:01.520 They'll release a product
00:33:03.380 and they'll say,
00:33:04.760 we've really plugged every hole.
00:33:07.200 There's no way anybody's going to find a way to hack this.
00:33:10.320 And then it gets hacked.
00:33:12.340 Do you think the elections are the exception?
00:33:15.100 Where it's the only thing in the world
00:33:16.840 that nobody can figure out how to hack?
00:33:19.260 Well, it would be the only thing in the world.
00:33:22.620 That would be a weird and wonderful coincidence.
00:33:26.480 But no, it's not a fact that anybody knows anything
00:33:29.460 about the outcome of an election.
00:33:31.160 And then somebody said to me,
00:33:33.100 but Scott,
00:33:33.980 does that mean the 2024 election was rigged?
00:33:39.240 To which I say,
00:33:40.600 we wouldn't know.
00:33:42.320 We only know that Trump was named the winner.
00:33:45.280 And my speculation is it was too big to rig
00:33:48.760 even if somebody wanted to.
00:33:51.240 Sort of like 2016,
00:33:52.900 but 2016 was more a surprise.
00:33:55.500 I think it snuck up on people
00:33:56.900 because they didn't expect he would win at all.
00:33:58.700 So I don't think there was necessarily any cheating
00:34:01.660 that was lined up in 2016.
00:34:05.240 But by 2020,
00:34:07.780 that suspicious number of gigantic turnout
00:34:11.080 for the corpse for Joe Biden,
00:34:14.940 that is really suspicious.
00:34:17.540 And let's talk about that.
00:34:19.560 So they also say,
00:34:20.900 this is the next Democrat hoax,
00:34:23.780 that January 6th was definitely an insurrection.
00:34:26.820 And if you don't believe it was an insurrection
00:34:29.580 and that Trump was behind it,
00:34:31.960 well,
00:34:32.800 you're some kind of a lying traitor to the country.
00:34:38.320 That's a hoax.
00:34:39.820 I'm sure that some members of the public,
00:34:43.360 maybe some of them that attended,
00:34:46.240 thought they were doing an insurrection.
00:34:48.300 But not the great majority of them.
00:34:50.300 There weren't enough of those insurrectionist ones,
00:34:53.940 you know,
00:34:54.080 the crazy ones,
00:34:55.100 who made any difference.
00:34:58.180 The vast majority of the people arrested
00:35:00.380 thought they were saving the country.
00:35:03.000 Now,
00:35:03.440 they could be wrong,
00:35:04.420 but they looked at the election
00:35:06.220 and they said,
00:35:06.840 ah,
00:35:07.420 that looks wrong.
00:35:09.140 You're going to have to take a pause
00:35:10.740 and make sure that's true.
00:35:13.120 So asking people to take a pause
00:35:15.560 to make sure that the election
00:35:17.260 was counted correctly,
00:35:18.540 because it looked like,
00:35:20.100 it looked like whatever bad behavior
00:35:22.940 people suspected
00:35:24.520 was so big
00:35:26.220 that you could probably figure it out
00:35:28.360 in 48 hours.
00:35:29.540 I mean,
00:35:29.780 they weren't asking for a big,
00:35:31.880 kind of a big delay.
00:35:33.260 Now,
00:35:33.740 we have not seen that.
00:35:35.680 It has not been determined
00:35:37.180 that there was a specific way of cheating
00:35:39.640 and that the election was rigged.
00:35:42.480 But that's not relevant
00:35:44.040 to the January 6th narrative.
00:35:46.240 What's relative is what people believed.
00:35:50.180 And I'm positive
00:35:51.900 that Trump believed
00:35:53.480 it was a rigged election.
00:35:55.480 I'm positive
00:35:56.220 that the vast majority,
00:35:59.260 I don't know,
00:35:59.800 95%,
00:36:01.480 98%
00:36:02.460 of the protesters
00:36:03.720 on January 6th
00:36:05.040 believed it was rigged.
00:36:06.800 So the correct narrative is
00:36:08.660 people believed it was rigged
00:36:10.680 and wanted it to be paused
00:36:12.320 so we could find out if it was.
00:36:14.720 I don't think you could have found out
00:36:16.800 in a brief pause,
00:36:18.460 but that's what people were asking for.
00:36:21.600 For the news to report it
00:36:23.360 as definitely an insurrection,
00:36:25.960 an erection, 0.66
00:36:27.400 as definitely an insurrection,
00:36:28.700 is just a hoax.
00:36:30.140 That's pure hoax.
00:36:31.340 And their entire,
00:36:32.440 their entire Democrat party
00:36:34.900 depends on you believing that hoax.
00:36:36.940 Because if you don't believe January 6th,
00:36:40.380 if you don't believe the hoax,
00:36:43.400 then you can't believe that Trump
00:36:45.200 is definitely trying to steal your democracy.
00:36:48.220 Their entire messaging
00:36:49.800 depends on you believing that hoax.
00:36:52.600 Because there's not really
00:36:54.200 anything else they can point to
00:36:56.180 that would suggest
00:36:57.780 that Trump wants to be a dictator.
00:36:59.820 They can just look at that one thing.
00:37:01.940 And if you believe the one thing
00:37:03.700 that he tried to overthrow the government
00:37:05.900 on January 6th,
00:37:07.260 if you believe that hoax,
00:37:09.140 then all the rest of the hoaxes
00:37:10.680 afterwards make sense.
00:37:12.340 Oh, well,
00:37:13.620 he's definitely a dictator insurrectionist.
00:37:16.060 So if you had any questions
00:37:18.060 about this new thing he's doing,
00:37:19.640 oh, I think we could wrap it
00:37:20.880 under the umbrella
00:37:21.620 of his dictator insurrectionist impulses.
00:37:25.400 The whole thing falls apart
00:37:26.940 if you know that January 6th
00:37:28.340 was just a made-up narrative.
00:37:30.260 Completely made up.
00:37:32.500 And then there's the
00:37:33.540 Russia started the war 0.94
00:37:34.900 with Ukraine.
00:37:37.420 And again, it's one of those
00:37:38.640 who started the war?
00:37:40.960 Well, if you look back at 24...
00:37:42.780 Shut up. 0.95
00:37:43.400 Shut up. 0.95
00:37:44.440 The only way we count it
00:37:45.900 is who invaded.
00:37:47.860 That's all.
00:37:48.900 That's who started it.
00:37:50.500 So the definition of started it
00:37:52.380 is who crossed the border with weapons.
00:37:55.200 To which I say,
00:37:56.540 why would you have a stupid definition?
00:37:59.480 That's a stupid definition.
00:38:00.940 Who started it
00:38:02.720 is whoever did something
00:38:03.980 so provocative
00:38:04.860 that somebody thought
00:38:05.780 they needed to shoot him.
00:38:08.400 Did Ukraine do something
00:38:09.700 so provocative
00:38:10.500 that Russia said,
00:38:11.580 okay, I think we now have
00:38:12.600 to just kill you all 0.96
00:38:13.700 because this is so bad?
00:38:15.280 Yes, they did.
00:38:17.040 They tried to move NATO
00:38:18.580 right up to their front door
00:38:20.140 and fill it with CIA stations.
00:38:24.420 And it was a red line
00:38:25.680 that Putin had said
00:38:26.920 for a long time.
00:38:28.820 Now, Putin's not a good guy,
00:38:30.620 so I'm not defending Putin.
00:38:32.200 I have to say that every time
00:38:33.420 so my clips don't get taken
00:38:35.080 out of context.
00:38:36.300 But it's a pure hoax
00:38:38.180 that the only definition
00:38:40.720 of starting a war
00:38:41.840 is who crossed the border
00:38:43.280 with the military.
00:38:44.480 That's just a hoax.
00:38:46.380 The start
00:38:47.080 is whatever started it.
00:38:51.000 Putin wasn't sitting
00:38:52.120 on the other end
00:38:52.800 of the border saying,
00:38:53.920 you know,
00:38:54.460 I've got an idea.
00:38:56.900 I'm just noodling,
00:38:58.020 but what about,
00:39:00.060 what if I just invaded?
00:39:02.020 It didn't happen that way.
00:39:03.620 There was a whole bunch of stuff
00:39:05.100 that was just begging
00:39:06.540 for an invasion,
00:39:07.840 and we all knew it,
00:39:09.500 or at least people
00:39:10.440 in the government knew it.
00:39:12.840 So those are the three hoaxes
00:39:14.400 that we can magically know
00:39:15.920 who won any election,
00:39:17.660 that January 6th
00:39:18.600 was an insurrection,
00:39:19.760 even though if you asked
00:39:21.000 98% of the people there,
00:39:22.480 they would say,
00:39:22.900 what are you talking about?
00:39:24.420 We're trying to stop
00:39:25.460 an insurrection.
00:39:26.940 And then who started it,
00:39:28.540 they just used
00:39:29.260 some weird definitions
00:39:31.260 so they can justify
00:39:32.480 endless war.
00:39:33.320 All right,
00:39:38.280 so those are the three
00:39:39.700 big hoaxes.

00:40:42.700 Apparently,
00:40:43.540 California Democrat
00:40:45.420 mayor officials' homes
00:40:46.960 were raided
00:40:47.740 and there's a
00:40:48.560 $14 million
00:40:49.920 corruption probe.
00:40:52.380 And this is in
00:40:53.420 Huntington Beach?
00:40:55.900 Yeah,
00:40:56.160 Huntington Park,
00:40:58.600 California.
00:40:59.100 And you would
00:41:01.200 not be surprised
00:41:02.100 that the corruption
00:41:03.140 involves
00:41:04.800 the building
00:41:07.460 of some facility,
00:41:09.280 city's aquatic center.
00:41:11.160 And you would
00:41:12.220 not be surprised
00:41:13.220 that there was
00:41:14.100 a bunch of money
00:41:15.120 sloshing around
00:41:16.160 to build that
00:41:16.800 aquatic center.
00:41:18.080 And you would
00:41:19.120 not be surprised
00:41:20.020 that the government
00:41:21.340 that was in power
00:41:22.760 is being blamed
00:41:24.840 for stealing
00:41:25.680 some amount
00:41:26.480 of that money
00:41:27.060 that was sloshing around.
00:41:28.260 Now,
00:41:29.920 I'll say this
00:41:30.740 a million times,
00:41:32.200 but
00:41:33.360 our country
00:41:34.800 is doomed
00:41:35.520 if local mayors
00:41:37.480 and politicians
00:41:38.220 can decide
00:41:39.100 where the money goes.
00:41:41.000 That's it.
00:41:42.520 We can't survive that.
00:41:44.820 It will guarantee
00:41:45.880 that over time
00:41:46.920 every city
00:41:48.140 is run by
00:41:48.680 a criminal organization
00:41:49.880 that's stealing
00:41:50.480 all the money
00:41:50.980 that's going through.
00:41:51.720 Well, basically,
00:41:52.420 you'll just be the,
00:41:53.320 you know,
00:41:54.040 you'll be the Taliban 1.00
00:41:54.820 at that point.
00:41:55.540 So the fact
00:41:57.560 that there's
00:41:58.160 this one investigation
00:41:59.580 of this one thing,
00:42:02.360 I think it's
00:42:03.440 every city.
00:42:04.800 I think it's
00:42:05.680 every city
00:42:06.640 is just riddled
00:42:08.320 with the same
00:42:09.080 kind of corruption.
00:42:10.320 Oh, we need
00:42:11.020 a big project
00:42:11.660 to build a bridge
00:42:13.740 or an aquatic center.
00:42:15.320 And then there's
00:42:16.220 shit ton of money
00:42:17.360 sloshing around
00:42:18.300 and then they make sure
00:42:19.340 that it goes
00:42:19.860 to their cronies
00:42:20.820 so that their kid
00:42:24.020 or their spouse
00:42:25.080 gets a taste of it
00:42:26.640 because they're associated
00:42:27.760 in some way
00:42:28.480 with where the money
00:42:29.220 is sloshing around.
00:42:30.540 It's all corrupt
00:42:31.680 all the time.
00:42:32.700 Every city,
00:42:33.500 I'm pretty sure.
00:42:34.900 I'll bet you
00:42:35.400 there's not one city
00:42:36.500 where the,
00:42:38.100 well, I'll give you,
00:42:39.160 there might be one.
00:42:40.400 When Bloomberg
00:42:41.060 was mayor
00:42:41.740 of New York City,
00:42:43.540 there's a pretty good chance
00:42:44.360 he wasn't stealing anything.
00:42:46.120 Pretty good chance.
00:42:47.560 But I would say
00:42:48.540 those are exceptions.
00:42:49.280 If the worst
00:42:54.960 allegation
00:42:55.820 against Mayor Adams
00:42:56.920 of New York
00:42:57.560 is that he got
00:42:58.880 some upgrades
00:42:59.520 on his travel,
00:43:00.460 which is the most
00:43:01.040 normal thing
00:43:02.280 in the world,
00:43:03.460 if that's the worst
00:43:04.360 they could accuse him of,
00:43:06.320 then it makes me think,
00:43:08.160 hmm,
00:43:09.020 maybe him starting
00:43:10.460 in law enforcement
00:43:11.400 may have put him
00:43:13.480 in a position
00:43:14.040 where he just
00:43:14.720 didn't feel like
00:43:16.040 stealing from the city
00:43:17.080 was the right thing to do.
00:43:18.580 So there could be
00:43:19.260 some exceptions,
00:43:20.320 but it also might explain
00:43:21.560 why they're trying
00:43:22.080 to get rid of him.
00:43:23.280 Because if he doesn't
00:43:24.140 participate in,
00:43:25.940 let's say,
00:43:26.460 the larger scale
00:43:27.560 Democrat
00:43:28.120 abuse of all funding,
00:43:32.560 maybe people said,
00:43:33.700 yeah,
00:43:33.900 we've got to get
00:43:34.400 somebody more corrupt
00:43:35.340 in that job
00:43:35.980 or we're not making money.
00:43:37.580 So there could be exceptions.
00:43:39.100 anyway,
00:43:41.620 the FAA is getting close
00:43:43.880 to canceling Verizon
00:43:45.160 that is the backbone,
00:43:48.320 I guess,
00:43:48.580 for their air traffic
00:43:49.380 control systems.
00:43:52.360 And the word is
00:43:54.400 that they might be
00:43:55.220 just months away
00:43:56.540 from the entire
00:43:58.100 FAA air support,
00:44:01.900 what do you call it,
00:44:02.460 the people in the towers,
00:44:04.800 of the whole thing
00:44:05.640 just falling apart
00:44:06.700 where you just
00:44:07.560 wouldn't be able
00:44:08.000 to fly.
00:44:08.500 All the airports
00:44:09.060 would have to close
00:44:09.960 because the infrastructure
00:44:12.080 would just crumble,
00:44:13.640 I guess.
00:44:14.480 And I guess Verizon's
00:44:15.640 been getting
00:44:16.040 $2.4 billion,
00:44:17.820 is it per year?
00:44:20.440 It might be per year.
00:44:21.520 And Starlink
00:44:24.740 might take over
00:44:25.820 that business
00:44:26.980 to do what Verizon
00:44:28.440 was doing
00:44:28.920 with probably
00:44:29.740 mostly landlines,
00:44:31.100 but move it up
00:44:32.040 to the satellites.
00:44:33.480 Now,
00:44:34.080 this, of course,
00:44:35.020 is going to make
00:44:35.600 all the Democrats
00:44:36.360 say,
00:44:36.920 wait a minute,
00:44:38.580 wait a minute now,
00:44:40.160 that looks like
00:44:40.740 a conflict of interest.
00:44:42.000 Are you telling me
00:44:42.560 that Elon Musk
00:44:43.360 looked into it
00:44:44.140 and his solution
00:44:44.840 was give all the money
00:44:46.280 to my company?
00:44:48.360 Well,
00:44:48.900 we do need
00:44:49.560 some kind of a process.
00:44:50.860 where we can
00:44:53.640 just shine light
00:44:54.720 on all the situations
00:44:56.040 in which Elon Musk's
00:44:57.560 businesses
00:44:58.060 will have some
00:44:59.420 intersection
00:45:00.000 with things
00:45:00.700 that Doge is doing.
00:45:03.020 And this is certainly one.
00:45:04.920 Now,
00:45:05.220 I don't think
00:45:05.740 that he's doing
00:45:06.220 something bad.
00:45:07.060 I think he's going
00:45:07.640 to save a whole
00:45:09.100 bunch of money
00:45:09.720 and save the
00:45:11.280 air traffic system
00:45:12.380 and we're all going
00:45:13.760 to be better off
00:45:14.380 for it.
00:45:15.500 That's what I think
00:45:16.340 will happen.
00:45:17.320 But,
00:45:18.080 it's still
00:45:19.020 perfectly valid
00:45:20.220 to say,
00:45:21.780 can we make sure
00:45:23.300 we have maximum
00:45:24.280 transparency on that
00:45:25.600 and that the public
00:45:26.800 is completely aware
00:45:28.040 why it's being done,
00:45:30.440 why Skylink is chosen.
00:45:32.100 It's the only thing
00:45:32.680 they could do it probably.
00:45:34.520 And,
00:45:34.760 you know,
00:45:36.040 are we going to
00:45:37.160 save money
00:45:37.760 or spend more money?
00:45:40.060 So,
00:45:40.920 a little more transparency
00:45:42.060 would be great.
00:45:42.580 speaking of Verizon,
00:45:47.140 Brendan Carr of the FCC
00:45:48.620 is warning Verizon
00:45:49.860 about their
00:45:50.480 DEI stuff
00:45:52.000 because the FCC
00:45:53.260 doesn't want
00:45:54.040 anybody who's
00:45:55.060 regulated by them
00:45:56.680 to be promoting
00:45:57.560 DEI.
00:45:58.860 And,
00:45:59.040 Brendan Carr says,
00:46:00.720 I expect all
00:46:02.120 regulated businesses
00:46:03.020 to end in
00:46:04.060 invidious forms
00:46:05.480 of discrimination.
00:46:07.760 Good.
00:46:08.080 there's more
00:46:10.020 DEI news.
00:46:11.100 Goldman Sachs
00:46:12.000 is going to
00:46:13.580 ditch their
00:46:14.060 DEI goals.
00:46:16.120 Good.
00:46:17.320 Goldman Sachs,
00:46:18.900 welcome to the club.
00:46:20.440 Now,
00:46:20.860 I've been telling you
00:46:21.660 for a while
00:46:22.160 that if the government
00:46:23.820 says this is
00:46:24.820 discrimination,
00:46:26.100 that the biggest
00:46:27.460 companies are going
00:46:28.420 to say,
00:46:28.860 uh,
00:46:29.560 that just opened up
00:46:31.360 a gigantic
00:46:32.080 legal liability.
00:46:33.280 because if the
00:46:34.820 government says
00:46:35.620 it's discrimination,
00:46:37.040 that would mean
00:46:38.200 we're breaking
00:46:38.780 the law
00:46:39.340 right in public.
00:46:41.200 If you're a big
00:46:42.080 corporation,
00:46:42.860 the thing you
00:46:43.320 least want to do
00:46:44.340 is break the law
00:46:45.900 right in public.
00:46:47.980 It's,
00:46:48.540 it's a risk
00:46:49.340 no big company
00:46:50.080 wants.
00:46:50.980 So,
00:46:51.680 I did expect
00:46:52.880 that after a few
00:46:54.460 big companies
00:46:55.320 get rid of their
00:46:56.560 DEI,
00:46:57.140 just for legal
00:46:58.140 liability reasons,
00:46:59.740 that,
00:47:00.180 uh,
00:47:01.120 there'd be more
00:47:01.640 of it.
00:47:02.240 Now,
00:47:02.460 it could be driven
00:47:03.180 by insurance.
00:47:05.000 Maybe.
00:47:05.700 It's possible
00:47:06.260 that there's
00:47:06.760 an insurance angle,
00:47:07.980 but the big companies
00:47:08.700 often are self-insured,
00:47:10.780 so maybe that's not it.
00:47:12.380 It could be just
00:47:13.020 they see it's,
00:47:13.980 it's a legal
00:47:14.560 liability in the future.
00:47:16.280 And,
00:47:16.860 but keep,
00:47:18.100 keep this in mind
00:47:18.980 that Goldman Sachs,
00:47:20.880 um,
00:47:21.380 had a four-year-old
00:47:22.700 diversity policy
00:47:24.040 that they,
00:47:24.680 they're ending,
00:47:25.880 that,
00:47:26.380 uh,
00:47:27.020 they were not allowed
00:47:27.780 to advise companies
00:47:29.100 on IPOs
00:47:30.080 unless they had
00:47:30.900 two diverse board members.
00:47:32.400 Um,
00:47:33.180 so they were,
00:47:34.540 they were not just
00:47:35.440 all in,
00:47:36.380 they were all in
00:47:37.400 and trying to influence
00:47:38.480 other companies,
00:47:39.620 almost like blackmail,
00:47:41.340 to be all in as well,
00:47:43.140 and they pulled that back.
00:47:45.940 Meanwhile,
00:47:46.720 the,
00:47:47.040 uh,
00:47:47.380 U.S.
00:47:47.840 government is launching a,
00:47:49.280 an end DEI portal,
00:47:51.140 according to Newsmax.
00:47:53.220 Um,
00:47:53.820 it's a portal where
00:47:54.580 the public can complain
00:47:55.740 about diversity in schools,
00:47:57.200 not diversity,
00:47:58.160 about,
00:47:58.700 um,
00:47:59.000 they can complain
00:48:00.420 about DEI,
00:48:01.440 which is now,
00:48:02.320 uh,
00:48:03.400 banned if you want
00:48:04.480 to get federal funding,
00:48:05.480 which all the schools need.
00:48:07.940 So,
00:48:08.420 there would be a way
00:48:09.100 to drop a dime
00:48:10.420 on,
00:48:11.420 uh,
00:48:11.700 any DEI
00:48:12.340 that's trying to hide.
00:48:13.940 Do you think
00:48:14.680 anybody's trying
00:48:15.260 to hide their DEI programs?
00:48:17.320 Yes.
00:48:18.560 They're changing
00:48:19.320 the names
00:48:19.860 of the departments,
00:48:20.560 they're shifting
00:48:21.240 people around,
00:48:22.300 and they're trying
00:48:22.840 to keep what they're doing,
00:48:23.980 but,
00:48:25.540 but hide it
00:48:26.220 from the government.
00:48:27.800 Now,
00:48:28.320 that's got to be
00:48:29.100 really illegal.
00:48:30.220 But it turns out
00:48:30.860 that the U.S. Mint
00:48:31.940 is,
00:48:33.360 so the government itself,
00:48:35.100 the U.S. Mint
00:48:35.760 is,
00:48:36.760 uh,
00:48:37.020 scrambling to conceal
00:48:38.340 their DEI personnel,
00:48:40.140 according to the Free Press.
00:48:41.600 Josh Code
00:48:42.200 is writing about that.
00:48:43.840 And,
00:48:44.300 uh,
00:48:46.380 you know,
00:48:47.060 the way they hide it
00:48:48.040 is they change the names
00:48:49.420 and the org charts
00:48:50.320 and,
00:48:50.640 and stuff like that.
00:48:52.280 Um,
00:48:52.720 but,
00:48:53.040 the allegation
00:48:54.160 is that they've hidden
00:48:55.160 five diversity,
00:48:56.340 equity,
00:48:56.600 and inclusion personnel
00:48:57.540 from the acts.
00:49:01.100 So,
00:49:02.220 there's going to be
00:49:04.460 more,
00:49:04.800 uh,
00:49:05.020 discovery of that stuff.
00:49:06.900 Meanwhile,
00:49:07.480 another big news,
00:49:08.500 uh,
00:49:08.780 big pharma company,
00:49:10.100 Eli Lilly,
00:49:11.060 says they're going to put
00:49:12.020 $27 billion into
00:49:13.800 U.S. manufacturing
00:49:15.200 expansion.
00:49:17.460 Now,
00:49:18.120 when I see a story
00:49:19.080 like that,
00:49:21.020 I can't escape
00:49:22.360 my,
00:49:22.780 um,
00:49:24.200 my history
00:49:25.400 as a person
00:49:26.440 who worked
00:49:26.820 for big corporations
00:49:27.800 and my job
00:49:29.360 for most of that time
00:49:30.320 was to gather
00:49:31.200 information
00:49:32.020 that would be,
00:49:33.740 you know,
00:49:33.940 the information
00:49:34.500 that we would use.
00:49:36.120 And,
00:49:36.740 I learned that
00:49:37.940 corporate information
00:49:39.360 is almost never
00:49:41.360 accurate.
00:49:42.540 It's just a story
00:49:43.580 you want to tell.
00:49:45.260 So,
00:49:45.740 it's more about
00:49:46.360 the narrative.
00:49:46.820 So,
00:49:48.660 when I see that
00:49:49.580 Eli Lilly wants
00:49:51.100 to invest
00:49:51.520 $27 billion
00:49:52.460 in the U.S.,
00:49:53.700 here's where my brain
00:49:55.200 automatically goes.
00:49:57.140 How much were they
00:49:58.180 going to invest
00:49:58.900 anyway?
00:50:00.620 Okay,
00:50:00.920 some of the 27,
00:50:02.120 I guarantee,
00:50:03.600 they had already
00:50:04.120 planned to do
00:50:04.960 before any
00:50:06.680 homeshoring
00:50:07.340 or anything
00:50:07.720 had been brought up.
00:50:09.640 But,
00:50:10.320 if they wanted
00:50:11.100 to expand it
00:50:11.980 so that the government
00:50:13.040 would like them
00:50:13.720 and the Trump
00:50:14.520 administration
00:50:15.140 would say,
00:50:15.660 yeah,
00:50:15.920 you're a good company.
00:50:16.960 You're doing
00:50:17.340 what we want.
00:50:18.060 You're expanding
00:50:18.540 U.S. manufacturing.
00:50:20.160 Here's what I'd do.
00:50:21.740 I'd say,
00:50:22.380 yeah,
00:50:23.520 we already told you
00:50:24.740 about the,
00:50:25.920 I'll just make up
00:50:26.700 a number,
00:50:27.600 the $10 billion
00:50:28.520 that might have been
00:50:29.720 just ordinary business
00:50:30.760 that was going to
00:50:31.320 happen no matter what.
00:50:33.080 But,
00:50:33.580 we're going to make
00:50:33.960 that $27 billion
00:50:35.120 by counting
00:50:36.520 extra years
00:50:37.400 in the future.
00:50:38.880 So,
00:50:39.380 instead of talking
00:50:39.980 about a five-year plan,
00:50:41.420 maybe we'll talk
00:50:42.780 about a 10-year plan.
00:50:43.720 And then,
00:50:45.220 guess what?
00:50:46.160 In five years,
00:50:47.500 if you check back,
00:50:49.320 they will have spent
00:50:50.120 the same amount
00:50:50.980 that they said
00:50:51.540 they would have spent
00:50:52.360 no matter what,
00:50:53.420 you know,
00:50:53.600 $10 billion.
00:50:54.560 And then,
00:50:55.340 you're going to say,
00:50:55.940 hey,
00:50:56.380 what about that
00:50:57.460 extra $17 billion?
00:50:59.560 And they would say,
00:51:00.280 well,
00:51:00.500 that was five years ago.
00:51:01.720 Things change.
00:51:03.520 It's a new administration.
00:51:06.360 They don't really have to,
00:51:08.000 they don't have to
00:51:09.280 really do it.
00:51:11.680 They can just make up
00:51:12.800 numbers in the future
00:51:13.660 and say,
00:51:14.020 ah,
00:51:14.800 yeah,
00:51:15.500 yeah,
00:51:15.880 in 10 years,
00:51:16.840 we're totally
00:51:17.400 putting in another
00:51:18.220 $10 billion.
00:51:19.360 Yeah,
00:51:19.620 no doubt about it.
00:51:21.640 Nobody can plan
00:51:22.580 10 years in advance
00:51:23.620 or usually even five.
00:51:26.880 Then,
00:51:27.200 my next question is,
00:51:28.580 if they're designing
00:51:29.700 manufacturing
00:51:30.500 in the United States
00:51:31.760 and they're doing it
00:51:33.120 in the modern era,
00:51:34.200 as in today,
00:51:35.060 do they design
00:51:36.660 the manufacturing
00:51:37.540 to accommodate
00:51:38.500 human workers
00:51:39.860 or robots?
00:51:41.500 Or do they
00:51:42.420 cleverly design it
00:51:43.680 so that
00:51:44.260 it's humans now,
00:51:45.840 but it could
00:51:46.440 very easily
00:51:47.000 be robots?
00:51:49.280 Because
00:51:49.920 I don't think
00:51:51.280 they would
00:51:51.800 depend on
00:51:53.360 American workers
00:51:54.180 to do everything.
00:51:55.840 So,
00:51:56.640 we'll see.
00:51:57.700 I have big questions
00:51:58.480 about any of these
00:51:59.220 big company announcements
00:52:00.380 about onshore.
00:52:02.260 Meanwhile,
00:52:04.460 RFK Jr.
00:52:05.580 has paused
00:52:06.220 a $460 million
00:52:07.960 Biden era
00:52:09.820 COVID vaccine deal.
00:52:12.680 I guess they were
00:52:13.220 working on
00:52:13.820 a COVID vaccine pill
00:52:17.240 and that was going
00:52:19.320 to cost a lot
00:52:20.120 to test it,
00:52:20.900 et cetera.
00:52:21.460 Now,
00:52:21.760 it's not stopped.
00:52:22.740 It's just paused
00:52:23.560 for a review
00:52:24.340 and that's good.
00:52:28.100 That sounds like
00:52:28.900 exactly the sort
00:52:29.760 of thing
00:52:30.060 that we would want
00:52:31.300 to be carefully
00:52:32.640 reviewed.
00:52:34.140 So,
00:52:34.580 nothing wrong
00:52:35.100 with that.
00:52:36.940 But here's what
00:52:37.740 I've observed
00:52:39.380 and I want you
00:52:40.400 to tell if you
00:52:41.080 observed the same
00:52:42.000 thing.
00:52:42.900 When it comes
00:52:43.740 to the COVID
00:52:44.520 shots,
00:52:45.280 the ones that
00:52:45.800 already exist,
00:52:46.980 there are two
00:52:48.300 completely different
00:52:49.240 worlds.
00:52:50.660 In one world,
00:52:52.220 there are all
00:52:52.800 these experts
00:52:53.500 who say that
00:52:54.180 the COVID
00:52:54.860 shots are
00:52:55.520 definitely,
00:52:57.060 obviously,
00:52:58.140 and massively
00:52:59.020 injuring people.
00:53:00.020 heart problems
00:53:02.360 and turbo
00:53:03.560 cancers and
00:53:04.680 every other
00:53:05.600 thing in the
00:53:06.100 world.
00:53:07.060 Now,
00:53:07.580 that's one
00:53:08.200 world.
00:53:09.440 And in that
00:53:10.140 world,
00:53:10.940 everybody knows
00:53:11.840 it.
00:53:12.760 It's clean
00:53:13.900 and obvious
00:53:14.540 science.
00:53:15.500 There's no
00:53:15.920 question about
00:53:16.780 it.
00:53:17.500 And all the
00:53:18.620 evidence shows
00:53:19.340 it.
00:53:20.140 And there's
00:53:20.680 no doubt
00:53:21.180 that the COVID
00:53:22.160 shot was the
00:53:23.440 biggest scandal
00:53:24.600 slash crime in
00:53:26.100 the last
00:53:26.440 hundred
00:53:26.720 years.
00:53:28.920 At the
00:53:29.640 same time,
00:53:31.120 in the
00:53:32.720 other world,
00:53:33.480 which has no
00:53:34.180 connection to
00:53:34.800 that world,
00:53:36.380 the government
00:53:38.100 and Big
00:53:38.940 Pharma are
00:53:39.480 still offering
00:53:40.120 the same
00:53:40.600 shots and
00:53:42.560 would claim
00:53:43.160 that they
00:53:43.540 really,
00:53:44.140 really helped
00:53:44.580 and there's
00:53:45.680 no special
00:53:46.340 risk.
00:53:47.960 And they're
00:53:48.620 going to make
00:53:48.940 more and
00:53:50.060 they're going to
00:53:50.360 extend the
00:53:50.880 platform so you
00:53:51.740 can get all
00:53:52.360 kinds of
00:53:52.860 mRNA stuff.
00:53:55.720 Now,
00:53:57.400 how in the
00:53:58.120 world are
00:53:58.780 both of those
00:53:59.460 worlds operating
00:54:00.800 completely
00:54:01.780 independently
00:54:02.420 at the same
00:54:03.960 time?
00:54:08.280 So,
00:54:09.000 there's one
00:54:10.880 of the trolls
00:54:11.320 saying that I
00:54:12.680 say question
00:54:14.180 everything,
00:54:14.820 but I didn't
00:54:15.320 say question
00:54:16.020 the COVID
00:54:16.760 shot.
00:54:17.940 Can the
00:54:18.560 rest of
00:54:18.960 you tell
00:54:19.860 that fucking 0.86
00:54:20.540 idiot what 0.98
00:54:21.340 my opinion
00:54:21.940 was from
00:54:22.660 the start
00:54:23.480 to the
00:54:24.280 moment on
00:54:24.900 the COVID
00:54:25.280 shot?
00:54:26.240 Please,
00:54:26.960 tell the
00:54:27.580 fucking idiot 0.74
00:54:28.240 what my
00:54:28.980 opinion was
00:54:29.620 because he's
00:54:30.060 getting his
00:54:30.480 information from
00:54:32.360 4chan comics,
00:54:33.820 I think.
00:54:34.900 In the
00:54:35.520 comments,
00:54:36.100 those who've
00:54:36.540 been watching
00:54:36.920 me,
00:54:37.700 tell me,
00:54:38.220 did I have
00:54:38.780 any skepticism
00:54:39.720 about the
00:54:40.360 shot?
00:54:44.860 From the
00:54:45.600 start,
00:54:46.680 it was
00:54:47.520 nothing but
00:54:48.080 skepticism.
00:54:48.720 so fuck
00:54:52.580 off you
00:54:53.480 idiots.
00:54:54.400 I'm really
00:54:55.120 so tired
00:54:55.780 of you.
00:54:56.340 You're
00:54:56.680 living in
00:54:57.120 the wrong
00:54:57.480 movie.
00:54:58.460 There's no
00:54:59.160 movie in
00:54:59.860 which I did
00:55:00.440 what you
00:55:00.800 think I
00:55:01.220 did.
00:55:02.060 None of
00:55:02.540 it happened
00:55:02.980 and I've
00:55:03.500 got a
00:55:04.340 thousand
00:55:04.700 witnesses
00:55:05.260 who are
00:55:06.160 testifying it
00:55:06.920 right now
00:55:07.320 in the
00:55:07.540 comments.
00:55:08.580 Every one
00:55:09.060 of you
00:55:09.360 who watched
00:55:09.920 me knows
00:55:10.580 that I was
00:55:11.040 skeptical
00:55:11.420 from the
00:55:11.940 start and
00:55:12.800 never
00:55:13.020 stopped.
00:55:13.440 So just
00:55:17.320 fuck
00:55:17.840 completely
00:55:18.560 off.
00:55:19.740 I'm so
00:55:20.260 done with
00:55:20.680 you idiots. 0.95
00:55:21.860 So done
00:55:22.560 with you
00:55:22.920 fucking
00:55:23.260 idiots.
00:55:26.040 Anyway,
00:55:27.480 so the
00:55:28.580 only way
00:55:28.920 we'll know
00:55:29.240 what's true
00:55:29.780 is when we
00:55:31.000 get those
00:55:31.380 Epstein files
00:55:32.180 because I'm
00:55:32.700 sure that has
00:55:33.180 COVID stuff
00:55:33.800 in there
00:55:34.080 too.
00:55:35.060 That's
00:55:35.340 where I'd
00:55:35.640 put it.

00:55:49.600 Scotiabank,
00:55:50.360 you're richer
00:55:50.820 than you
00:55:51.160 think.
00:55:54.100 Trump
00:55:54.740 administration,
00:55:55.860 according to
00:55:56.220 the Post
00:55:56.560 Millennial,
00:55:57.100 is going
00:55:57.380 to deny
00:55:57.920 all visas
00:55:58.740 for male
00:56:00.240 trans athletes
00:56:01.160 seeking to
00:56:01.940 compete as
00:56:02.440 women in 0.62
00:56:02.940 the 2028
00:56:03.820 Olympics.
00:56:05.740 Now,
00:56:06.560 I guess I
00:56:07.900 wasn't aware
00:56:08.580 that the
00:56:09.040 Olympics were
00:56:09.820 even the
00:56:10.300 place that
00:56:10.980 there would
00:56:11.300 be
00:56:12.520 trans
00:56:13.680 athletes.
00:56:14.840 I guess I
00:56:15.580 wasn't paying
00:56:16.040 attention.
00:56:16.520 I don't pay
00:56:16.840 too much
00:56:17.180 attention to
00:56:17.900 the Olympics.
00:56:19.520 But I
00:56:20.840 guess they're
00:56:22.380 just going to
00:56:22.860 not let
00:56:23.320 anybody come
00:56:23.960 into the
00:56:24.320 country if
00:56:25.240 they're in
00:56:25.680 that category
00:56:26.360 of born
00:56:28.280 male but
00:56:29.000 competing as
00:56:29.680 female.
00:56:31.040 What do you
00:56:31.700 think of
00:56:31.960 that?
00:56:32.220 well, I
00:56:35.920 would say
00:56:36.320 that I'm
00:56:38.260 surprised that
00:56:39.400 the Olympics
00:56:39.860 themselves allowed
00:56:41.020 it, but I
00:56:44.120 don't have a
00:56:44.740 problem with
00:56:45.120 it.
00:56:45.380 It just
00:56:45.920 feels like the
00:56:46.580 adult thing
00:56:47.100 to do.
00:56:47.740 Common sense.
00:56:49.700 I'm surprised.
00:56:51.360 I don't know
00:56:51.760 if there'll be
00:56:52.120 lawsuits that
00:56:53.020 succeed.
00:56:54.200 You expect
00:56:54.860 there'll be
00:56:55.220 some lawsuits
00:56:55.840 or whatever.
00:56:56.960 But yeah,
00:56:57.680 common sense.
00:56:58.320 in related
00:57:00.780 news, I
00:57:02.200 don't know if
00:57:02.560 you saw
00:57:02.880 this, but
00:57:03.340 there's a
00:57:03.880 story in
00:57:04.240 the news.
00:57:05.220 ABC News
00:57:06.100 said with
00:57:07.080 this headline,
00:57:07.820 quote, a
00:57:08.520 woman in
00:57:09.220 Colorado has
00:57:09.980 been arrested
00:57:10.460 after police
00:57:11.120 caught her
00:57:11.600 with explosives
00:57:13.480 at a Tesla
00:57:14.220 dealership.
00:57:15.500 A woman in 0.90
00:57:16.260 Colorado.
00:57:17.440 When was the
00:57:18.120 last time you
00:57:18.760 heard about a
00:57:19.400 woman planning 0.91
00:57:20.680 a bombing
00:57:21.260 attack?
00:57:23.900 Woman 0.99
00:57:24.460 planning a
00:57:25.320 bombing attack.
00:57:27.520 Hmm.
00:57:28.960 Maybe never.
00:57:30.620 Maybe never in
00:57:31.660 your entire
00:57:32.080 life.
00:57:32.600 Not even
00:57:32.920 once.
00:57:34.220 I can't
00:57:34.960 think of
00:57:35.220 one.
00:57:36.220 But the
00:57:36.860 funny part
00:57:37.300 is they
00:57:37.680 showed a
00:57:38.140 photograph of
00:57:39.700 the woman who 0.89
00:57:41.640 didn't have a
00:57:42.820 single female 0.98
00:57:43.740 characteristic.
00:57:45.000 Didn't have
00:57:45.720 long hair like
00:57:46.560 a woman.
00:57:47.080 Didn't have
00:57:47.460 makeup.
00:57:48.100 Didn't have
00:57:48.520 jewelry.
00:57:49.240 Wasn't dressed
00:57:49.960 like a woman. 0.80
00:57:50.680 It was just
00:57:51.160 a dude.
00:57:52.520 But it must
00:57:53.400 have been a
00:57:53.780 dude who
00:57:54.860 insisted on,
00:57:56.160 you know,
00:57:56.720 being called a
00:57:57.360 woman.
00:57:57.580 So ABC
00:57:58.160 News said,
00:57:58.840 yeah, no
00:57:59.120 problem.
00:58:00.040 There's a
00:58:00.580 picture of
00:58:00.980 our woman.
00:58:02.280 Okay.
00:58:05.640 Speaking of
00:58:06.360 transgender,
00:58:07.180 also CBS
00:58:08.640 News is
00:58:09.200 reporting that
00:58:10.600 transgender
00:58:11.440 service members
00:58:13.620 could be
00:58:15.720 removed from
00:58:16.400 the military.
00:58:17.220 Now, not
00:58:17.680 everyone,
00:58:18.780 because they're
00:58:19.160 going to do a
00:58:19.640 case-by-case
00:58:20.420 look.
00:58:21.440 And if they're
00:58:22.380 contributing to
00:58:23.580 the war-fighting
00:58:24.840 lethality,
00:58:25.900 which is the
00:58:26.480 main goal,
00:58:27.540 there might
00:58:27.860 be some
00:58:28.180 cases where
00:58:28.760 they have,
00:58:29.100 I don't know,
00:58:29.420 some special
00:58:30.040 skills or
00:58:30.680 something,
00:58:31.460 and they
00:58:33.080 would keep
00:58:33.800 them on a
00:58:34.260 case-by-case
00:58:34.860 basis.
00:58:35.740 But basically,
00:58:36.840 they're going to
00:58:38.300 try to remove
00:58:38.880 all trans from 0.96
00:58:39.700 the military.
00:58:41.420 Now, here's
00:58:42.620 where I have to
00:58:43.420 remind you of
00:58:44.320 some context.
00:58:45.780 The military is
00:58:47.720 allowed to
00:58:48.480 discriminate.
00:58:48.960 it's the most
00:58:50.920 basic fact about
00:58:52.380 the military.
00:58:53.620 If you're a 0.88
00:58:54.420 400-pound guy,
00:58:56.520 can you join the
00:58:57.320 military and try
00:58:58.120 to be a pilot?
00:58:59.320 No.
00:58:59.960 They will
00:59:00.240 discriminate you
00:59:01.140 for your weight.
00:59:02.520 If you're
00:59:03.860 three foot five
00:59:06.180 inches tall and
00:59:08.120 you try to join
00:59:08.800 the military,
00:59:10.020 can you do it?
00:59:11.140 No.
00:59:11.980 No.
00:59:12.280 They'll say
00:59:12.780 people need to
00:59:13.880 be a certain
00:59:14.320 size to fit
00:59:16.100 in.
00:59:17.500 If you're a 0.88
00:59:18.860 let's say
00:59:20.420 you're blind, 0.96
00:59:22.300 can you join
00:59:23.300 the military?
00:59:24.500 No.
00:59:25.600 Well, I don't
00:59:26.120 think so.
00:59:26.760 Certainly not
00:59:27.360 for standard
00:59:28.140 military stuff.
00:59:29.940 So,
00:59:31.000 and look at
00:59:32.460 me.
00:59:33.240 Suppose I
00:59:33.820 wanted to
00:59:34.180 become a
00:59:34.600 Marine.
00:59:35.920 Do you
00:59:36.180 think the
00:59:36.620 Marines would 0.88
00:59:37.180 take me
00:59:37.620 at my
00:59:38.220 current age?
00:59:39.500 No.
00:59:40.300 No.
00:59:40.640 They would
00:59:40.900 discriminate by
00:59:41.800 age.
00:59:42.640 And they
00:59:43.240 already
00:59:43.580 discriminate by
00:59:44.520 gender, I
00:59:45.280 think, in
00:59:45.680 some domains,
00:59:46.820 but not all.
00:59:47.320 The only
00:59:49.500 thing the
00:59:49.860 military has
00:59:50.440 to prove is
00:59:51.900 that when
00:59:52.260 they're
00:59:52.480 discriminating,
00:59:53.360 there's a
00:59:53.840 quite reasonable
00:59:55.460 reason for it,
00:59:56.360 usually backed
00:59:56.980 by data.
00:59:58.400 So,
00:59:59.320 they don't
00:59:59.900 discriminate by
01:00:00.820 race,
01:00:01.940 and I don't
01:00:03.580 think there's
01:00:04.000 data that
01:00:04.520 shows they
01:00:04.940 should, as
01:00:05.700 long as
01:00:06.000 everybody's
01:00:06.520 passing the
01:00:07.320 same standards,
01:00:08.180 et cetera.
01:00:09.220 So, where
01:00:10.300 they don't
01:00:10.800 discriminate,
01:00:12.120 it's because
01:00:12.620 the data
01:00:13.000 doesn't back
01:00:13.640 it, or
01:00:14.480 they can find
01:00:15.200 a way to be
01:00:15.760 selective enough
01:00:16.640 that there's
01:00:17.900 no reason
01:00:18.260 to do it.
01:00:20.940 So, when
01:00:22.560 you look at
01:00:22.900 the trans
01:00:23.360 thing, just
01:00:23.960 remember, the
01:00:24.920 military has
01:00:26.560 every right to
01:00:27.380 discriminate, they 0.97
01:00:28.560 only have to
01:00:29.380 get the job
01:00:29.920 done.
01:00:30.840 That's it.
01:00:31.700 And if they
01:00:32.140 can come up
01:00:33.420 with some
01:00:33.760 data, and
01:00:35.020 maybe they
01:00:35.660 haven't, it
01:00:37.340 says that if
01:00:37.980 you're transgender,
01:00:39.100 you're less
01:00:40.520 ready for
01:00:41.740 combat or
01:00:42.820 something, then
01:00:44.680 they can do
01:00:45.500 it.
01:00:46.120 It would
01:00:46.480 be good if
01:00:46.900 they had
01:00:47.100 some data.
01:00:48.480 If it's
01:00:49.040 just purely
01:00:49.640 political, it's
01:00:51.140 not going to
01:00:51.520 fly as well.
01:00:54.060 All right,
01:00:54.560 there's a
01:00:54.880 story about
01:00:55.300 Chief Justice
01:00:56.120 Roberts, who
01:00:58.160 shut down
01:00:58.840 this Democrat
01:00:59.680 federal judge
01:01:00.680 who was
01:01:01.000 trying to,
01:01:03.460 it doesn't
01:01:04.680 matter what
01:01:05.020 the judge was
01:01:05.520 doing, he
01:01:05.800 was trying to
01:01:06.220 do something
01:01:06.680 that was just
01:01:07.180 anti-Trump and
01:01:08.220 trying to
01:01:09.460 force USAID
01:01:11.100 funding in
01:01:13.560 one day,
01:01:14.780 basically just
01:01:15.880 something stupid. 0.67
01:01:17.140 So as you
01:01:17.660 know, the
01:01:18.880 current situation
01:01:19.740 is that a
01:01:21.000 federal judge
01:01:21.680 anywhere in
01:01:22.720 the country
01:01:23.180 can stop any
01:01:24.860 national thing.
01:01:27.260 So that means
01:01:28.200 that the
01:01:28.520 Democrats can
01:01:29.300 judge shop,
01:01:30.600 because there's
01:01:31.000 always somebody
01:01:31.580 corrupt enough
01:01:32.360 and Democrat
01:01:32.900 enough and
01:01:33.500 TDS enough
01:01:34.420 that no matter
01:01:35.600 what you want
01:01:36.100 to do, as
01:01:36.780 long as it's
01:01:37.280 anti-Trump,
01:01:38.100 they can find a
01:01:38.940 judge who will
01:01:39.340 do it.
01:01:40.200 Now that's
01:01:40.620 the worst
01:01:40.920 system in
01:01:41.440 the world,
01:01:42.500 because it
01:01:42.980 would mean
01:01:43.280 that the
01:01:44.360 Republicans will
01:01:45.860 just be in
01:01:46.300 endless legal
01:01:48.200 battles and
01:01:49.260 couldn't get
01:01:49.600 anything done,
01:01:50.420 because you
01:01:50.880 can always
01:01:51.300 find a judge.
01:01:52.540 There's always
01:01:53.240 a judge to
01:01:54.000 shut it down.
01:01:55.360 Well, so
01:01:56.280 this federal
01:01:57.000 judge shut
01:01:59.200 down something
01:01:59.820 that was sort
01:02:00.780 of outside of
01:02:01.420 that judge's
01:02:02.260 normal domain,
01:02:03.220 I guess.
01:02:04.120 But what
01:02:04.860 happened next,
01:02:05.880 according to
01:02:06.580 Rod Martin,
01:02:07.480 who's writing
01:02:07.900 about this,
01:02:08.500 did a good
01:02:09.860 job on
01:02:10.240 this.
01:02:11.840 Apparently
01:02:12.280 Justice
01:02:12.720 Roberts
01:02:13.360 didn't wait
01:02:16.420 for the
01:02:17.000 appeals court
01:02:17.780 that was
01:02:18.360 between that
01:02:19.420 judge and
01:02:20.360 the Supreme
01:02:20.820 Court,
01:02:21.640 because the
01:02:23.020 appeals court
01:02:23.520 was non-responsive,
01:02:24.600 I guess,
01:02:25.000 within the
01:02:25.460 timeline.
01:02:26.640 And so
01:02:26.900 Justice Roberts,
01:02:29.220 without
01:02:29.620 consulting anybody
01:02:30.820 or holding a
01:02:31.540 case,
01:02:32.360 just put the
01:02:33.500 boot on him 0.98
01:02:34.140 and just
01:02:35.080 said,
01:02:35.480 nope,
01:02:36.500 and he
01:02:37.100 just overruled
01:02:37.840 the federal
01:02:38.200 judge.
01:02:39.280 Now, we
01:02:39.700 think,
01:02:40.960 and I think
01:02:41.840 this is Rod
01:02:42.480 Martin's take,
01:02:44.260 that Justice
01:02:45.540 Roberts just
01:02:46.340 does not
01:02:47.800 abide this
01:02:49.020 judge shopping
01:02:49.920 for the worst
01:02:50.720 judge to get
01:02:51.620 the worst
01:02:52.000 things that
01:02:52.520 affect the
01:02:52.960 whole country.
01:02:54.000 I think the
01:02:54.660 Supreme Court,
01:02:55.660 at least Roberts,
01:02:57.740 who seems to have
01:02:58.460 the authority to do
01:02:59.360 that, which
01:02:59.840 surprises me,
01:03:01.200 I think he's
01:03:01.980 just going to
01:03:02.400 shut down
01:03:03.040 this judge
01:03:04.620 shopping stuff.
01:03:05.740 And maybe
01:03:06.000 this was,
01:03:06.940 it was such a
01:03:07.820 stark,
01:03:09.000 kind of surprising,
01:03:10.960 you know,
01:03:11.620 nuclear blast
01:03:12.800 on the court
01:03:14.200 system,
01:03:15.180 that it looked
01:03:15.920 like he was
01:03:16.420 sending a message,
01:03:17.960 as in,
01:03:18.700 if you do
01:03:19.500 this again,
01:03:20.980 I'm going to
01:03:21.480 stomp on you
01:03:22.100 again.
01:03:23.620 Now, it's a
01:03:24.460 little bit of
01:03:24.860 speculation,
01:03:25.600 because we don't
01:03:26.100 know what he's
01:03:26.460 thinking,
01:03:27.540 but it did
01:03:28.540 look like a
01:03:29.100 signal.
01:03:30.160 It looked like
01:03:30.680 a signal,
01:03:31.280 as in,
01:03:32.260 you can't
01:03:32.800 have a
01:03:33.480 court system
01:03:34.180 where one
01:03:34.960 rogue judge,
01:03:36.440 and you can
01:03:36.940 always find
01:03:37.480 one,
01:03:37.940 can stop
01:03:38.480 anything.
01:03:40.160 And then it
01:03:40.640 just becomes
01:03:41.140 completely
01:03:41.700 political.
01:03:43.780 So, good
01:03:44.440 for you.
01:03:45.240 If that's
01:03:45.900 what happened,
01:03:46.880 and there's a
01:03:47.620 little bit of
01:03:47.980 speculation in
01:03:48.760 that, but if
01:03:49.280 that's what
01:03:49.760 Roberts was
01:03:50.480 thinking, and
01:03:51.060 that's why
01:03:51.440 Roberts acted,
01:03:52.980 good for you.
01:03:54.740 That's terrific.
01:03:55.920 Nicely done.
01:03:57.900 Meanwhile,
01:03:58.360 Jerry Dunleavy
01:03:59.240 is reporting
01:04:01.100 that five
01:04:01.800 former defense
01:04:02.700 secretaries got
01:04:04.760 together and
01:04:06.280 wrote a letter.
01:04:07.420 They're worried
01:04:07.840 about the
01:04:08.300 recent firings in
01:04:10.020 the military,
01:04:10.800 the head of the
01:04:11.200 military especially,
01:04:12.640 and that Trump
01:04:14.580 might be
01:04:15.160 politicizing the
01:04:16.400 military.
01:04:16.800 military.
01:04:21.440 And here are
01:04:23.320 the people who
01:04:24.100 are worried
01:04:24.560 about him
01:04:25.160 politicizing the
01:04:26.340 military.
01:04:27.840 You've got
01:04:28.520 Leon Panetta.
01:04:31.620 So, these are
01:04:32.440 former defense
01:04:33.200 secretaries.
01:04:34.340 Leon Panetta is
01:04:35.200 one of the
01:04:35.600 signers of the
01:04:36.400 Biden laptop
01:04:37.380 letter, who is
01:04:39.300 now warning
01:04:39.940 about the
01:04:40.640 government
01:04:40.980 politicizing that
01:04:42.100 job.
01:04:42.420 he signed
01:04:44.200 the laptop
01:04:44.700 letter.
01:04:47.960 Man, you've
01:04:48.800 got to have
01:04:49.280 serious balls 0.73
01:04:51.260 to be a
01:04:52.480 signer of the
01:04:53.460 laptop letter
01:04:54.920 and to say,
01:04:56.540 hey, this
01:04:57.180 administration is
01:04:58.080 politicizing this
01:04:59.000 job.
01:05:00.260 Good Lord.
01:05:01.380 The other ones
01:05:02.140 were Lloyd
01:05:03.000 Austin,
01:05:03.460 uh-huh,
01:05:04.100 Jim Mattis,
01:05:08.740 William Perry,
01:05:09.700 and Chuck
01:05:10.100 Hagel.
01:05:10.900 They're all
01:05:11.480 deeply alarmed
01:05:12.420 at Trump's
01:05:13.340 politicizing.
01:05:14.460 Now, here's
01:05:14.900 my question.
01:05:16.340 Since when
01:05:16.940 is it not
01:05:17.520 politicized?
01:05:19.480 I'm pretty
01:05:20.520 sure that when
01:05:22.120 you get a new
01:05:22.680 president, and
01:05:24.220 the new president
01:05:24.840 has a different
01:05:25.480 political opinion
01:05:26.380 about how the
01:05:27.040 world should run,
01:05:28.220 should we be
01:05:29.040 supporting Ukraine
01:05:30.040 or trying to
01:05:30.920 end the war,
01:05:31.660 for example?
01:05:32.380 That's political.
01:05:34.100 Right?
01:05:35.140 And then the
01:05:36.580 new president
01:05:37.200 comes in, who
01:05:38.120 won a mandate
01:05:39.080 for that
01:05:40.520 political outcome,
01:05:41.920 and then tells
01:05:42.980 the military to
01:05:43.820 do the thing
01:05:44.400 that the public
01:05:45.000 asks for,
01:05:46.040 which is
01:05:46.800 definitely
01:05:47.200 political.
01:05:49.040 It doesn't
01:05:49.780 make it wrong,
01:05:51.220 because sometimes,
01:05:52.420 you know,
01:05:53.240 politics is either
01:05:54.300 go left or go
01:05:55.120 right, and one
01:05:55.680 of those directions
01:05:56.300 is the correct
01:05:57.160 one.
01:05:58.220 So being
01:05:58.960 politicized is
01:05:59.880 the only way
01:06:00.480 it can be.
01:06:01.780 How can it not
01:06:02.440 be politicized?
01:06:03.220 The whole point
01:06:04.160 of having the
01:06:05.000 civilian leadership
01:06:06.100 of the military
01:06:06.920 is that you've
01:06:08.860 got an elected
01:06:09.600 politician who's
01:06:11.860 calling the
01:06:12.840 shots.
01:06:13.980 That's politicized
01:06:15.360 by definition.
01:06:16.580 You can't
01:06:17.440 unpoliticize that.
01:06:19.040 We designed it
01:06:19.960 so it would be
01:06:20.700 politicized, that a
01:06:22.640 politician would be
01:06:23.640 in charge.
01:06:24.360 That's politicized.
01:06:26.460 Anyway, I guess
01:06:29.280 the idea of firing
01:06:30.840 people who were
01:06:31.780 not on the
01:06:32.400 team is too
01:06:34.300 politicized, to
01:06:35.500 which I say,
01:06:36.800 isn't it also
01:06:38.100 common sense that
01:06:40.020 if a president
01:06:40.640 got elected with
01:06:41.620 a certain set of
01:06:43.300 military ambitions,
01:06:45.120 in this case, not
01:06:45.960 to be in a war,
01:06:47.280 that if there's
01:06:48.700 any members of
01:06:49.560 the military at
01:06:50.280 the top who
01:06:51.000 don't want to
01:06:51.540 do that, that
01:06:52.460 you would fire
01:06:52.960 them?
01:06:53.640 Is that politicized?
01:06:56.160 That's kind of
01:06:56.800 stretching it.
01:06:57.460 more like normal
01:06:59.120 behavior.
01:07:01.160 Anyway, according
01:07:04.240 to a poll, a
01:07:06.000 Gallup poll,
01:07:06.960 Breitbart News is
01:07:07.760 reporting on this,
01:07:08.860 Hannah Knudsen,
01:07:10.460 the American trust
01:07:11.700 in the mass media
01:07:12.540 is at the lowest
01:07:13.360 point in 50 years,
01:07:14.840 over 50 years.
01:07:17.960 Now, are you
01:07:18.320 surprised that the
01:07:19.520 mass media is at
01:07:20.500 the lowest point?
01:07:23.320 Now, a lot of
01:07:24.260 that is Trump.
01:07:24.880 Trump, and
01:07:25.720 around 2016, the
01:07:27.980 mass media took
01:07:28.820 a big dive.
01:07:30.240 But here's the
01:07:31.120 problem when you
01:07:31.740 ask that question.
01:07:33.760 If you ask a 0.95
01:07:34.780 Republican, they 0.86
01:07:37.080 sometimes will say
01:07:38.340 that Fox News is
01:07:39.380 part of the mass
01:07:40.040 media, that the
01:07:41.500 mass media is
01:07:42.440 everything that
01:07:43.080 disagrees with,
01:07:44.040 you know, the
01:07:45.060 right.
01:07:46.360 And so I'm not
01:07:48.280 sure how people
01:07:48.960 are answering the
01:07:49.680 question.
01:07:50.620 If they were
01:07:51.400 answering the
01:07:51.960 question that they
01:07:52.720 trusted Fox News,
01:07:53.980 but they didn't
01:07:54.980 trust the other
01:07:56.380 forms of news,
01:07:58.140 they would be
01:07:58.920 maybe mixed in
01:07:59.860 with people who
01:08:00.840 treated them all
01:08:02.640 the same.
01:08:03.820 So, I don't
01:08:04.700 know.
01:08:04.920 I don't trust the
01:08:05.600 results.
01:08:06.480 But it seems to
01:08:08.020 me that the
01:08:08.820 various trust is
01:08:11.960 down to like in
01:08:12.700 the 30s.
01:08:14.520 So in the 30-ish
01:08:16.160 percent, about
01:08:17.320 one in three
01:08:17.960 people trust the
01:08:19.340 media.
01:08:19.620 media, do you
01:08:21.360 see the trend?
01:08:23.280 We're just maybe a
01:08:24.740 few years away from
01:08:26.800 trust in the media
01:08:27.860 reaching 25%.
01:08:30.180 What do I say
01:08:32.160 about 25%?
01:08:35.540 25% is the number
01:08:37.980 of people who will
01:08:38.880 be wrong on any
01:08:40.620 question, no matter
01:08:41.640 what the question
01:08:42.280 is.
01:08:42.820 It's different 25%, 0.85
01:08:43.620 but it doesn't
01:08:45.520 matter what the
01:08:46.360 question is, 25%
01:08:48.500 will be completely
01:08:50.020 wrong and clueless
01:08:51.320 every time.
01:08:53.240 And it looks like
01:08:54.020 trust in the media is
01:08:55.060 going to go down to
01:08:55.640 25%.
01:08:56.620 Anyway.
01:09:00.660 Claudia was leaving
01:09:01.680 for her pickleball
01:09:02.460 tournament.
01:09:02.980 I've been visualizing
01:09:03.820 my match all week.
01:09:05.500 She was so focused
01:09:06.420 on visualizing that
01:09:07.500 she didn't see the
01:09:08.260 column behind her
01:09:08.940 car on her backhand
01:09:10.080 side.
01:09:11.540 Good thing Claudia's 0.99
01:09:12.660 with Intact, the
01:09:13.640 insurer with the
01:09:14.440 largest network of
01:09:15.300 auto service centers
01:09:16.120 in the country.
01:09:17.220 Everything was taken
01:09:18.000 care of under one
01:09:18.860 roof and she was on
01:09:19.840 her way in a rental 0.84
01:09:20.500 car in no time.
01:09:21.680 I made it to my
01:09:22.620 tournament and lost
01:09:24.120 in the first round.
01:09:25.140 But you got there
01:09:26.180 on time.
01:09:26.980 Intact Insurance,
01:09:28.160 your auto service
01:09:28.920 ace.
01:09:29.620 Certain conditions
01:09:30.180 apply.
01:09:31.560 According to
01:09:32.240 Reclaim the Net,
01:09:33.840 D.D. Rankovich,
01:09:35.340 the House of
01:09:37.460 Representatives,
01:09:38.780 they advanced a
01:09:39.680 bill to block
01:09:41.220 foreign officials
01:09:42.100 who censor
01:09:42.980 Americans.
01:09:44.640 So the idea is
01:09:46.060 if you're a
01:09:46.680 foreign person,
01:09:48.340 politicians
01:09:49.980 specifically,
01:09:51.140 and you've been
01:09:52.160 involved in trying
01:09:52.920 to censor our
01:09:54.280 social media and
01:09:56.020 other countries
01:09:56.760 which would
01:09:57.620 effectively censor
01:10:01.460 it in our
01:10:01.840 country because
01:10:02.660 the social media
01:10:04.500 operates everywhere.
01:10:05.640 So if they could
01:10:06.100 only operate by
01:10:08.280 bending to the
01:10:09.580 will of some
01:10:10.080 foreign country,
01:10:11.320 well, they
01:10:11.820 censored Americans.
01:10:14.200 And so I guess
01:10:15.480 this is something
01:10:16.480 Daryl Issa did
01:10:17.380 last September.
01:10:18.860 Is it ISA?
01:10:20.320 Daryl Issa or
01:10:21.360 ISA?
01:10:22.080 ISA, right?
01:10:22.680 I think it's
01:10:23.180 ISA.
01:10:26.040 And it got
01:10:26.720 together with
01:10:27.160 some Republican
01:10:27.760 colleagues.
01:10:28.880 And basically,
01:10:29.400 if you are
01:10:31.120 involved in this,
01:10:31.940 you can never
01:10:32.460 travel to the
01:10:33.160 United States.
01:10:34.300 And if you're in
01:10:35.100 the United States,
01:10:35.860 they can deport
01:10:36.580 you.
01:10:37.740 I like it.
01:10:39.260 I like it.
01:10:39.980 Now, it doesn't
01:10:40.500 have a lot of
01:10:41.080 teeth because, 0.67
01:10:42.260 you know,
01:10:42.620 people can survive
01:10:43.660 not traveling to
01:10:44.720 the United States.
01:10:45.480 It's not the end
01:10:46.100 of the world for
01:10:46.660 most people.
01:10:47.220 But if you
01:10:48.140 were a high
01:10:49.200 profile politician
01:10:50.300 and you had
01:10:52.200 eyes on some
01:10:53.080 high office,
01:10:54.060 it would be a
01:10:55.560 problem if you
01:10:56.640 had been banned
01:10:57.420 from even
01:10:59.120 visiting America.
01:11:02.880 Yeah.
01:11:03.620 If you'd been
01:11:04.260 banned from even
01:11:05.160 visiting, you
01:11:06.320 know, one of
01:11:06.960 the biggest
01:11:07.500 what should be
01:11:09.080 your ally,
01:11:10.080 that would be
01:11:11.120 quite a thing
01:11:12.800 to overcome in
01:11:13.640 your next election,
01:11:14.640 wouldn't it?
01:11:14.960 And my
01:11:16.540 opponent isn't
01:11:18.020 even allowed to
01:11:18.980 travel to the
01:11:19.660 United States.
01:11:22.060 It'd be hard to
01:11:23.000 win that election.
01:11:24.540 Anyway, I'm in
01:11:26.320 favor of this.
01:11:27.600 But it hasn't
01:11:28.420 passed yet.
01:11:28.920 It's just got
01:11:30.140 through the house.
01:11:31.680 Meanwhile, it
01:11:32.240 looks like Japan's 1.00
01:11:33.140 birth rate is
01:11:33.840 hitting another
01:11:34.380 new low and
01:11:35.560 it's looking like
01:11:36.800 Japan at the
01:11:37.720 current rate will
01:11:38.320 disappear.
01:11:39.500 Over 30% of
01:11:40.560 Japan is over 1.00
01:11:41.380 65.
01:11:43.220 And marriage is
01:11:44.860 just kind of
01:11:45.500 looks like
01:11:46.520 kind of the
01:11:46.960 question for a
01:11:48.200 lot of young
01:11:48.540 people because
01:11:49.680 of the
01:11:50.220 financial burden
01:11:52.820 and etc.
01:11:56.280 So Japan 0.97
01:11:58.020 just doesn't
01:11:59.060 really have a
01:11:59.820 solution for
01:12:01.080 replacing the
01:12:02.540 people who are
01:12:03.220 aging out of
01:12:04.180 the productive
01:12:04.700 part of the
01:12:05.280 society.
01:12:06.740 And they're
01:12:07.320 doing stuff.
01:12:08.080 You know,
01:12:08.240 they've had
01:12:08.600 dating apps and
01:12:09.420 cash perks and
01:12:10.460 four-day work
01:12:11.200 weeks and
01:12:11.700 relaxed immigration
01:12:12.720 laws.
01:12:13.240 And they're
01:12:14.840 bringing in
01:12:15.900 foreign workers
01:12:16.660 and all that.
01:12:17.760 But it doesn't
01:12:18.400 look like it's
01:12:19.080 going to make
01:12:19.460 much difference.
01:12:21.660 So at the
01:12:22.700 same time that
01:12:23.280 robots are
01:12:25.140 being introduced
01:12:25.740 this year,
01:12:27.420 the population
01:12:28.720 in other
01:12:29.140 countries is
01:12:29.800 going through
01:12:30.300 the floor.
01:12:32.440 And I wonder
01:12:33.120 if there's some
01:12:33.800 way to
01:12:34.560 productively
01:12:36.400 take advantage
01:12:37.820 of the fact
01:12:38.240 that 30% of
01:12:39.180 the public is
01:12:39.940 over 65
01:12:41.020 in Japan
01:12:42.560 and people
01:12:43.900 are not
01:12:44.140 having kids.
01:12:45.380 Is there
01:12:45.720 any way
01:12:46.360 that the
01:12:47.080 seniors could
01:12:48.160 be involved
01:12:49.180 in childcare
01:12:50.380 to take the
01:12:51.840 burden off
01:12:52.460 of people
01:12:53.660 who want to
01:12:54.100 both work
01:12:54.700 but they'd
01:12:56.220 have to hire
01:12:56.680 childcare and
01:12:57.480 it'd be too
01:12:57.840 expensive?
01:12:58.880 So there
01:12:59.520 could be
01:13:00.280 maybe some
01:13:02.020 social engineering
01:13:03.280 thing where
01:13:04.060 the oldsters 0.95
01:13:06.120 who just want
01:13:06.780 to be useful
01:13:07.380 would just
01:13:08.380 love having
01:13:08.940 some kids
01:13:09.400 around during
01:13:10.380 the day
01:13:10.780 just to keep
01:13:11.380 them company
01:13:11.880 as long as
01:13:12.900 the old
01:13:13.600 people are
01:13:14.000 still entirely
01:13:15.020 functional.
01:13:16.540 And maybe
01:13:17.040 they do that
01:13:17.560 already but
01:13:18.800 probably only
01:13:19.520 for family
01:13:20.020 members.
01:13:20.980 I doubt
01:13:21.500 there are too
01:13:22.160 many strangers
01:13:22.740 watching kids.
01:13:24.140 But if you
01:13:24.480 had security
01:13:25.080 cameras and
01:13:25.760 you had a
01:13:26.060 number of
01:13:26.380 witnesses there
01:13:27.080 who are also
01:13:27.600 adults, you
01:13:29.340 could probably
01:13:29.700 feel safe
01:13:30.220 enough.
01:13:31.620 So we'll
01:13:32.020 see.
01:13:33.900 Did you know,
01:13:34.840 according to
01:13:35.160 the Wall Street
01:13:35.520 Journal, that
01:13:36.660 the American
01:13:37.400 drones that
01:13:38.860 are flying
01:13:39.260 over Mexico
01:13:39.900 have been
01:13:40.380 doing it
01:13:40.760 since the
01:13:41.100 early 2000s.
01:13:42.800 So apparently
01:13:43.740 for years
01:13:44.740 we've been
01:13:45.700 working with
01:13:46.340 the Mexican
01:13:46.840 government,
01:13:48.800 so much so
01:13:49.660 that the
01:13:50.020 drones are
01:13:50.820 generally
01:13:51.300 stationed
01:13:51.860 permanently
01:13:52.520 on Mexican
01:13:53.760 air bases
01:13:54.400 because they're
01:13:58.200 closer to the
01:13:58.800 action.
01:13:59.500 So the
01:13:59.760 Mexican
01:14:00.100 government
01:14:00.560 has been
01:14:01.040 allowing
01:14:01.460 these MQ-9
01:14:04.620 Reaper flights
01:14:06.320 since the
01:14:06.740 early 2000s
01:14:07.720 and it
01:14:07.980 continues.
01:14:09.300 And it
01:14:09.580 was apparently
01:14:10.460 that was
01:14:11.280 allegedly a
01:14:13.520 vital part of
01:14:14.480 how they
01:14:14.820 caught El
01:14:15.940 Chapo in 0.99
01:14:17.280 2013 and
01:14:18.260 2016 because
01:14:19.980 he escaped a
01:14:20.660 few times.
01:14:22.920 And then in
01:14:24.020 2023 they
01:14:25.300 helped find
01:14:25.860 El Chapo's
01:14:26.560 son.
01:14:28.200 So here's
01:14:29.680 my question.
01:14:30.520 if you
01:14:32.700 added AI
01:14:33.480 to the
01:14:35.340 Reapers
01:14:35.700 and apparently
01:14:37.840 they can see
01:14:38.460 all the way
01:14:38.780 down to a
01:14:39.220 license plate
01:14:40.020 which means
01:14:41.240 they can get
01:14:41.800 an image of
01:14:43.000 faces.
01:14:44.180 If they can
01:14:44.940 get images
01:14:45.580 of faces
01:14:46.240 and they
01:14:47.980 can just
01:14:48.340 find one
01:14:49.320 case of
01:14:50.020 one of the
01:14:50.600 top cartel
01:14:51.760 people,
01:14:53.040 can't the
01:14:53.600 AI build
01:14:54.380 sort of an
01:14:55.800 automatic
01:14:56.240 network of
01:14:57.760 all the
01:14:58.100 people that
01:14:58.780 they need to
01:14:59.280 round up?
01:15:00.520 I feel like
01:15:01.860 there's a
01:15:02.300 whole other
01:15:03.560 level of
01:15:04.160 capability that
01:15:05.060 the drones
01:15:05.560 haven't yet
01:15:06.220 reached.
01:15:07.020 They're right
01:15:07.980 on the edge
01:15:09.660 of reaching
01:15:10.100 because once
01:15:12.020 it can identify
01:15:12.820 people and
01:15:13.720 it knows the
01:15:14.300 entire network
01:15:15.080 of who's
01:15:15.560 doing what,
01:15:17.100 it seems like
01:15:17.860 it would be
01:15:18.140 pretty easy,
01:15:19.080 not easy,
01:15:20.020 but it would
01:15:20.360 be possible
01:15:21.200 to take down
01:15:22.420 the cartels
01:15:23.000 completely.
01:15:24.820 So that
01:15:25.600 might happen.
01:15:28.040 You heard
01:15:28.880 a while ago
01:15:29.540 that North
01:15:30.420 Korea was 1.00
01:15:31.760 trying to
01:15:32.140 help out
01:15:32.540 Russia with 0.91
01:15:33.420 the manpower
01:15:34.080 problem for
01:15:34.840 the military
01:15:35.320 and that
01:15:36.380 a bunch of
01:15:37.120 North Korean
01:15:37.760 soldiers were
01:15:39.240 fighting on
01:15:40.100 the same team
01:15:41.000 as the
01:15:41.460 Russians in 0.94
01:15:42.300 Ukraine.
01:15:43.960 Now,
01:15:44.420 today we find
01:15:45.240 out,
01:15:45.580 this is in
01:15:46.080 the Wall
01:15:46.960 Street Journal,
01:15:48.580 that some
01:15:51.700 of the
01:15:51.980 captured North
01:15:52.920 Korean soldiers,
01:15:54.200 they didn't
01:15:55.400 know what war
01:15:56.240 they were going
01:15:56.740 to be in and
01:15:57.340 who they were
01:15:57.760 fighting.
01:15:58.080 they had
01:15:59.340 been told
01:15:59.900 that they
01:16:00.920 were going
01:16:01.260 to go
01:16:01.600 fight South
01:16:02.860 Koreans 1.00
01:16:03.380 because the
01:16:05.040 South Korean
01:16:05.600 military had
01:16:07.600 joined with
01:16:08.120 Ukraine.
01:16:10.420 Nothing like
01:16:11.320 that ever
01:16:11.740 happened,
01:16:13.100 but that's
01:16:14.440 part of what
01:16:15.000 the North
01:16:15.760 Koreans were 1.00
01:16:16.680 basically
01:16:18.780 propagandized
01:16:19.740 into,
01:16:20.220 that they
01:16:20.700 were going
01:16:20.920 to go
01:16:21.280 fight the
01:16:21.700 South Koreans.
01:16:22.280 Now,
01:16:22.640 I assume
01:16:23.200 that's
01:16:24.120 because the
01:16:24.940 North Koreans 0.96
01:16:25.620 are taught
01:16:26.260 from birth
01:16:28.000 that South
01:16:28.840 Korea is the 1.00
01:16:29.360 enemy,
01:16:29.820 and if you're
01:16:30.160 in the
01:16:30.340 military,
01:16:30.980 South Korea
01:16:31.440 is who
01:16:32.220 you're going
01:16:32.520 to be
01:16:32.720 fighting.
01:16:33.640 So they're
01:16:34.080 just going
01:16:34.440 to a
01:16:34.720 different
01:16:34.920 part of
01:16:35.220 the world
01:16:35.460 to fight
01:16:35.800 those
01:16:36.100 South
01:16:36.400 Koreans. 0.64
01:16:37.480 And then
01:16:38.040 they got
01:16:38.920 injured and
01:16:39.600 captured,
01:16:40.260 and somebody
01:16:40.780 said,
01:16:41.360 we don't
01:16:41.700 have any
01:16:42.060 South Koreans.
01:16:43.080 What the
01:16:43.380 hell are you
01:16:43.640 talking about?
01:16:44.720 And then
01:16:45.060 the North
01:16:45.740 Koreans are 1.00
01:16:46.280 like,
01:16:46.760 I'm starting
01:16:48.980 to think
01:16:49.440 that North
01:16:49.960 Korea is not 0.99
01:16:50.740 always honest.
01:16:53.280 So there's
01:16:53.740 that.
01:16:55.660 Here's a
01:16:56.320 shocking
01:16:56.680 Gallup
01:16:57.220 poll,
01:16:57.820 according to
01:16:58.360 Carl Campanile
01:16:59.520 in the
01:16:59.880 New York
01:17:00.140 Post,
01:17:01.360 that 60% 0.64
01:17:02.900 of Democrats
01:17:03.640 are now
01:17:04.160 anti-Israel,
01:17:05.300 according to
01:17:05.800 a poll.
01:17:07.160 60% of
01:17:08.460 Democrats
01:17:09.120 are anti-Israel.
01:17:12.440 At the
01:17:13.260 same time,
01:17:14.120 I asked
01:17:14.560 ChatGPT
01:17:15.360 this,
01:17:16.200 about 70%
01:17:17.340 of American
01:17:18.000 Jewish voters
01:17:18.780 are Democrat.
01:17:20.540 So let me
01:17:20.900 say that
01:17:21.240 again.
01:17:22.280 For the
01:17:22.780 first time
01:17:23.320 ever,
01:17:23.940 a majority
01:17:24.520 of Democrats
01:17:25.240 are anti-Israel.
01:17:27.400 Now,
01:17:27.640 that's about
01:17:28.060 the country
01:17:28.660 and the
01:17:29.740 country's
01:17:30.120 policies.
01:17:32.100 But at
01:17:32.640 the same
01:17:32.940 time,
01:17:33.720 70%
01:17:34.520 of American
01:17:35.300 Jewish
01:17:35.700 voters
01:17:36.140 are Democrat.
01:17:38.460 Now,
01:17:39.340 these are
01:17:39.680 not the
01:17:40.000 same thing,
01:17:41.400 so it's
01:17:41.740 not about
01:17:42.600 if you're
01:17:44.100 Jewish,
01:17:44.640 you're
01:17:44.940 automatically
01:17:45.480 pro-Israel
01:17:46.620 or anti-Israel
01:17:47.520 or anything.
01:17:48.480 So they're
01:17:49.080 slightly different.
01:17:49.980 But if you
01:17:51.440 were a
01:17:51.760 Jewish
01:17:52.080 voter and
01:17:53.620 you know
01:17:54.020 that 60% 0.64
01:17:55.000 of the
01:17:55.280 people on
01:17:55.660 your own
01:17:56.160 team were
01:17:56.920 anti-Israel,
01:17:58.940 even if you
01:17:59.880 didn't have
01:18:00.620 any special
01:18:01.380 feelings about
01:18:02.160 Israel yourself
01:18:03.040 and you just
01:18:03.920 said,
01:18:04.260 I'm American,
01:18:05.320 you know,
01:18:05.880 I wish them
01:18:06.880 well,
01:18:07.220 but it's not
01:18:08.360 my business,
01:18:08.980 I'm an
01:18:09.260 American,
01:18:09.820 that would
01:18:10.740 still bother
01:18:11.380 you,
01:18:11.660 wouldn't it?
01:18:12.780 If 60%
01:18:13.680 of the people
01:18:14.100 on your team
01:18:14.660 were suspiciously
01:18:15.940 against this
01:18:17.100 country that's
01:18:17.840 mostly Jewish
01:18:18.540 people.
01:18:20.320 So I'm
01:18:21.140 going to make
01:18:21.440 a prediction.
01:18:22.760 You know
01:18:23.080 how you
01:18:23.420 were surprised
01:18:24.240 when Hispanics
01:18:25.860 moved toward
01:18:26.520 Trump?
01:18:27.660 And you
01:18:27.960 know how
01:18:28.240 you were
01:18:28.560 surprised,
01:18:29.800 maybe not,
01:18:31.080 that male
01:18:31.980 voters moved
01:18:32.780 toward Trump
01:18:33.360 in a big
01:18:34.300 way,
01:18:34.580 especially
01:18:34.840 young ones?
01:18:36.220 And remember
01:18:36.740 how you were
01:18:37.120 surprised that
01:18:37.780 black voters
01:18:38.540 moved far
01:18:40.220 more toward
01:18:40.760 Trump than
01:18:41.240 you ever
01:18:41.560 expected?
01:18:43.140 I'm going
01:18:43.820 to predict
01:18:44.260 that Jewish
01:18:45.700 American voters
01:18:46.780 are going
01:18:47.700 to defect
01:18:48.220 the Republican
01:18:48.900 Party.
01:18:50.040 And it
01:18:50.680 will be
01:18:50.980 because their
01:18:51.520 own party
01:18:52.060 turned out,
01:18:53.020 seems like,
01:18:53.980 a cesspool of
01:18:54.740 anti-Semitism.
01:18:56.300 Now,
01:18:57.160 anti-Semitism
01:18:57.800 is everywhere,
01:18:58.960 so it's not
01:18:59.920 like you're
01:19:00.420 going to go
01:19:00.760 to the
01:19:01.120 Republican Party
01:19:02.100 and not get
01:19:02.660 any.
01:19:03.000 Oh,
01:19:03.180 you'll get
01:19:03.480 plenty.
01:19:04.540 But apparently
01:19:05.800 the pro-Israel
01:19:08.820 part of the
01:19:10.160 Republican Party
01:19:11.000 is really high.
01:19:12.660 So I think
01:19:13.160 it's over 80%
01:19:14.020 of Republicans
01:19:15.060 are pro-Israel.
01:19:16.780 So I don't
01:19:18.360 see how it
01:19:18.920 can persist
01:19:19.700 that 70%
01:19:22.600 of American
01:19:23.280 Jewish voters
01:19:24.000 are Democrat
01:19:24.580 at the same
01:19:25.260 time 60%
01:19:26.320 of Democrats
01:19:28.240 are just
01:19:29.780 overtly
01:19:30.420 anti-Israel,
01:19:31.500 which is
01:19:32.760 not the same
01:19:34.140 as being
01:19:34.640 anti-Semitic.
01:19:36.280 I'll give you
01:19:37.020 that.
01:19:37.920 But it's
01:19:39.180 kind of a
01:19:39.720 close cousin.
01:19:41.340 You know,
01:19:41.900 the Venn diagram
01:19:43.060 is going to
01:19:44.160 overlap a little
01:19:44.880 bit.
01:19:46.340 So that
01:19:47.160 doesn't seem
01:19:47.680 sustainable.
01:19:49.220 I think the
01:19:49.940 Republicans are
01:19:50.640 just going to
01:19:52.000 grow.
01:19:55.240 Speaking of
01:19:56.220 Israel,
01:19:57.980 Bill O'Reilly
01:19:58.700 had a take
01:19:59.300 on the
01:19:59.900 Trump plan
01:20:01.160 to turn
01:20:01.620 Gaza into 0.59
01:20:02.280 a Mediterranean
01:20:03.260 hotel and
01:20:06.380 kind of an
01:20:08.080 excellent place
01:20:08.800 on the coast.
01:20:09.340 and he
01:20:11.900 said that
01:20:12.400 his vision
01:20:13.980 of it is
01:20:14.700 economic
01:20:15.160 prosperity
01:20:15.820 and he
01:20:17.320 says you're
01:20:18.020 never going
01:20:18.380 to have
01:20:18.700 peace in
01:20:19.260 the Middle
01:20:19.540 East.
01:20:20.200 Now,
01:20:20.360 this is
01:20:20.740 Bill O'Reilly
01:20:21.520 in his
01:20:23.560 opinion,
01:20:24.180 what Trump's
01:20:24.900 opinion is
01:20:25.500 because he
01:20:25.880 just talked
01:20:26.840 to him
01:20:27.100 recently,
01:20:27.420 I guess.
01:20:28.400 So he
01:20:28.640 thinks that
01:20:29.020 Trump thinks
01:20:29.600 that you
01:20:29.980 have to
01:20:30.320 have prosperity
01:20:31.080 in the
01:20:31.540 Middle East
01:20:32.000 to solve
01:20:33.160 the problems.
01:20:33.780 I don't
01:20:36.420 think I've
01:20:36.960 ever disagreed
01:20:38.120 with Trump
01:20:38.660 more than
01:20:39.260 that,
01:20:40.000 if that's
01:20:40.440 actually his
01:20:41.020 opinion.
01:20:41.600 So I'd
01:20:42.300 have to
01:20:42.520 hear from
01:20:42.880 him before
01:20:43.320 I completely
01:20:43.980 believe that's
01:20:44.820 a full and
01:20:46.100 accurate opinion.
01:20:48.240 But I
01:20:49.980 feel like
01:20:50.760 that would
01:20:52.140 make sense
01:20:52.740 if crime
01:20:53.480 was the
01:20:53.940 problem.
01:20:55.560 You know,
01:20:55.780 if you had
01:20:56.120 like just a
01:20:56.860 crime problem,
01:20:58.580 I think
01:20:58.940 prosperity
01:20:59.540 generally does
01:21:00.580 do a good
01:21:01.460 job of
01:21:02.000 reducing crime.
01:21:03.780 But if
01:21:05.040 you've been
01:21:05.420 training your
01:21:06.180 youth from
01:21:07.480 birth that
01:21:09.460 they have to
01:21:09.960 go destroy
01:21:10.880 Israel and
01:21:11.580 kill all the
01:21:12.280 Jews or 0.72
01:21:12.740 whatever they're
01:21:13.220 learning,
01:21:14.200 how in the
01:21:14.780 world is
01:21:15.280 making them
01:21:15.840 rich going
01:21:17.200 to make
01:21:17.460 you safer?
01:21:18.980 All you
01:21:19.640 have is
01:21:20.040 richer
01:21:20.400 terrorists. 0.53
01:21:21.760 All you
01:21:22.120 would have
01:21:22.520 is terrorists
01:21:23.060 who don't
01:21:24.120 have to
01:21:24.400 worry about
01:21:24.800 eating and
01:21:25.300 they can
01:21:25.560 work full
01:21:26.040 time on
01:21:26.520 their other
01:21:26.960 mission of
01:21:27.500 destroying
01:21:27.920 Israel.
01:21:29.340 So I
01:21:31.800 would expect
01:21:32.520 that Trump
01:21:33.200 would have a
01:21:33.700 more nuanced
01:21:34.480 feeling than
01:21:36.060 whatever it
01:21:36.520 is that
01:21:37.080 is being
01:21:39.000 relayed to
01:21:39.500 us.
01:21:40.040 So I
01:21:40.500 need to
01:21:40.760 hear it
01:21:41.000 from him.
01:21:42.560 I'd like to
01:21:43.220 hear Trump
01:21:43.640 say that
01:21:45.240 prosperity is
01:21:46.280 how you
01:21:47.060 reduce the
01:21:47.940 future of
01:21:49.140 terrorism.
01:21:49.900 Because it's
01:21:50.560 not obvious
01:21:51.100 to me.
01:21:52.100 To me, it
01:21:52.740 looks like it
01:21:53.260 would worsen
01:21:53.740 it.
01:21:54.460 It's like,
01:21:54.920 here's some
01:21:55.640 terrorism.
01:21:56.520 How about we
01:21:57.040 give you a lot
01:21:57.580 of money?
01:21:59.240 Every time
01:22:00.000 terrorists get
01:22:00.620 more money,
01:22:01.180 they do more
01:22:01.680 terrorism.
01:22:02.120 Has there
01:22:03.020 ever been
01:22:03.360 an exception?
01:22:05.600 So, well,
01:22:08.060 the buzz
01:22:08.400 saws and
01:22:09.060 leaf blowers
01:22:10.780 next door are
01:22:11.900 in full swing
01:22:13.520 right now, so I
01:22:14.240 can barely hear
01:22:14.860 myself.
01:22:15.460 I'm hoping my
01:22:16.120 microphone isn't
01:22:16.880 picking it up
01:22:17.500 because it'd be
01:22:18.080 very annoying
01:22:18.640 to you.
01:22:22.120 Yeah, poverty
01:22:23.420 contributes, but
01:22:24.500 it's not the
01:22:25.040 cause.
01:22:27.260 It's true.
01:22:27.900 It's the biggest
01:22:28.360 contributor,
01:22:28.900 though.
01:22:30.320 All right,
01:22:30.980 ladies and 0.98
01:22:31.480 gentlemen, I'm
01:22:31.980 going to say
01:22:32.220 some words
01:22:32.600 privately to
01:22:33.380 the local
01:22:34.020 subscribers.
01:22:35.120 The rest of
01:22:35.620 you, I'll see
01:22:36.240 you tomorrow,
01:22:36.800 same time,
01:22:37.560 same place.
01:22:38.100 I hope you
01:22:38.420 enjoyed the
01:22:38.880 show, and
01:22:40.620 see you
01:22:41.280 tomorrow.
01:22:41.600 Thank you.
