Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2781 CWSA 03⧸17⧸25

00:00:00.000 Come on. Technology. Technology. Come on. There we go. It's all working. Boom.

00:00:14.800 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:26.580 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better day.

00:00:30.440 But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny brains,

00:00:37.900 all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass of tank or chels, a canteen, a jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:45.120 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:00:48.220 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine dinner of the day.

00:00:56.580 Shut up. 0.95

00:00:59.040 The thing that makes everything better.

00:01:01.660 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now. Go.

00:01:05.520 All right. I have to come clean.

00:01:16.520 My local subscribers already know this, but my coffee maker is broken, and my other coffee maker is broken.

00:01:27.260 So my main coffee maker and my backup coffee maker, neither of them are working.

00:01:33.780 So this was not actual coffee.

00:01:39.480 And it just ruins the whole experience, let me tell you.

00:01:44.220 Anyway, but enough about that.

00:01:46.680 Happy St. Patrick's Day.

00:01:47.880 I'm a little bit Irish.

00:01:51.160 A little bit.

00:01:52.500 I'm more Irish today because it's St. Patrick's Day, but a little bit Irish.

00:01:58.220 Speaking of other countries, there's a French lawmaker who is calling for the return of the Statue of Liberty.

00:02:08.100 Because I guess he doesn't like Trump.

00:02:10.520 So that's normal.

00:02:13.360 And I don't think we should return the Statue of Liberty.

00:02:16.160 What do you think?

00:02:17.960 I don't think we should.

00:02:19.460 But I've got an idea of just rotating it 180 degrees and removing the torch and replacing it with the finger.

00:02:31.260 So that the statue is just giving the finger to France.

00:02:35.140 Okay, that would be funny.

00:02:36.340 But I do think the Democrats probably would agree with getting rid of the Statue of Liberty.

00:02:45.300 Because have you noticed that the Statue of Liberty has been giving a Nazi salute?

00:02:53.600 Yeah.

00:02:54.560 They sort of trick you by putting the torch in the hand.

00:02:57.820 But that just makes it worse.

00:02:59.220 It's like it's a Nazi salute and you want to burn everything down with your torch.

00:03:05.480 I think that should be deeply condemned and we should remove the Statue of Liberty and give it back to France.

00:03:13.080 You know, after we change the torch to a finger.

00:03:18.020 Well, believe it or not, according to Psy Post, there's a study about twins that suggests that it turns out you won't believe this.

00:03:29.640 This will be hard to believe.

00:03:31.800 But rational thinking is genetically linked to intelligence.

00:03:35.980 And it challenges the idea that decision making is a separate skill.

00:03:41.400 So in other words, they found out that you can't teach stupid people how to be smart by teaching them how to think.

00:03:48.420 Now, I could have saved them a little bit of time because I once tried to teach my dog to read and she just refused.

00:04:00.540 She never learned to read.

00:04:02.700 But no, it is not true that you can teach.

00:04:06.440 You cannot teach dumb people to be smart by teaching them how to think better.

00:04:11.200 You know, Bob, I've been noticing that you're a freaking moron.

00:04:16.920 But I think I can fix that with a few tweaks.

00:04:21.380 Did you know that if you were to look at, let's say, the information pro and con, you would get a better result?

00:04:29.800 Really?

00:04:30.860 I could?

00:04:32.240 I should look at the information on both sides of an issue?

00:04:36.040 Yes, you should, Bob.

00:04:37.400 Why don't you try that next time?

00:04:39.060 All right, I will.

00:04:41.300 And then what does Bob do?

00:04:42.620 Does Bob look at the information on both sides of the issue next time because you taught Bob how to be a better decision maker?

00:04:51.600 Nope.

00:04:52.720 Bob will forget that advice before you turn around and walk out the door.

00:04:58.180 Because Bob is not smart.

00:05:03.900 It's been my observation that all smart people tend to think alike rationally.

00:05:11.360 It's definitely genetic.

00:05:14.720 Now, I will say, though, I will say that if you're starting with a smart person, you can definitely teach them some extra tools,

00:05:24.620 such as how to spot fake news.

00:05:28.480 That's useful, right?

00:05:30.000 I've been teaching most of you how to do that, and most of you do now.

00:05:33.540 So you'll often say to me, oh, that one's too on the nose.

00:05:36.860 That's one of the things I teach you.

00:05:38.680 Oh, there's just one source, and it's anonymous.

00:05:41.540 That's one of the things I teach you, et cetera.

00:05:44.420 So you can teach smart people how to be even smarter.

00:05:50.780 But if you're trying to teach a dumb person how to think like a smart person, good luck with that.

00:05:58.260 Could have just asked me.

00:05:59.700 Save a little time.

00:06:02.380 Here's a story that makes my heart sing.

00:06:05.600 The Trump administration is targeting 45 universities over their anti-white discrimination.

00:06:15.200 Hannah Nightingale of the Post Millennial is writing about this.

00:06:19.960 So instead of making decisions or having any kind of policies that are race-related,

00:06:28.880 they're being challenged to get rid of that stuff.

00:06:31.720 And the universities are going to be in a little trouble

00:06:36.840 because one of the things that the Trump administration seems to be willing to use as a tool

00:06:41.820 is removing federal funding for research and grants,

00:06:48.300 which apparently, I didn't know this until recently,

00:06:51.740 is such a major funding for a lot of the big schools

00:06:56.140 that if they lost the federal research and grant money,

00:07:00.620 they'd be in real financial trouble.

00:07:03.960 I mean, it's a major source, I guess.

00:07:08.080 Anyway, so this is especially satisfying to me

00:07:11.920 that essentially the DEI stuff has become illegal.

00:07:16.860 And when I say become illegal, it was always illegal.

00:07:20.380 It's just we didn't treat it that way until Trump.

00:07:23.140 So you might remember that this is about, right now,

00:07:29.520 it's about two years since I got canceled.

00:07:33.360 Does anybody remember me getting canceled?

00:07:36.240 Of course you do.

00:07:38.340 Now, the interesting thing about my cancellation

00:07:40.840 is I realized the other day that, you know, my lasting legacy,

00:07:46.580 you know, the way I'll be remembered by search engines and AI

00:07:49.820 will be two things that didn't happen.

00:07:53.340 So my primary legacy will be based on things that didn't happen,

00:07:58.900 that aren't true.

00:08:00.300 Number one, that I gave a racist rant,

00:08:03.900 and that's why I got canceled.

00:08:05.760 That didn't happen.

00:08:07.500 I was ranting against racism.

00:08:10.760 Very specifically, I was against people who were racist.

00:08:16.060 And I said, wow, why would I want to live with a bunch of racists?

00:08:19.160 I would want to live where they're not,

00:08:21.140 which is literally what every single person in the world would agree with.

00:08:25.600 Why would you want to live where you know there's a bunch of racists? 0.72

00:08:29.640 Now, of course, I've never been in favor of racism against an individual.

00:08:34.640 You know, not in hiring, not in dating, not in friendship,

00:08:38.100 not in picking teams, nothing.

00:08:41.320 So, of course, I've always been, you know, against racism.

00:08:46.140 So I've been against racism against individuals.

00:08:49.400 But also, if there's a group that seems to be extra racist,

00:08:53.820 according to data, and there was data,

00:08:56.460 then I said, maybe you should not spend time with people

00:09:00.560 who are a little more racist against you

00:09:03.580 than you're comfortable with.

00:09:06.140 Every single person in the world agrees with that.

00:09:09.460 But I got canceled.

00:09:11.080 So how much pleasure do you think I get

00:09:13.900 watching the thing I got canceled for

00:09:17.640 become illegal?

00:09:20.740 A lot.

00:09:22.140 It's satisfying on a level that you can barely understand.

00:09:25.240 But I'll always be remembered as the guy who made the racist rant

00:09:30.240 because the news is fake, history is fake,

00:09:33.500 the history books are fake,

00:09:34.960 and mostly what the AI will tell you in the future

00:09:37.960 will be fake, unfortunately.

00:09:40.980 The other thing I'll be remembered for

00:09:42.920 is the thing that definitely didn't happen,

00:09:45.380 which is all of my opinions about the pandemic being reversed.

00:09:51.720 So one of the things I'm most proud of

00:09:53.900 is that I had the best opinions in the pandemic

00:09:57.760 of any public figure.

00:09:59.960 By far, it wasn't even close.

00:10:02.180 Most people believe that my opinions

00:10:04.580 were the opposite of what they were.

00:10:07.120 So people believe I was promoting vaccines.

00:10:10.380 No, that never happened.

00:10:11.580 Not once.

00:10:12.180 And so I'll be remembered for two things

00:10:16.020 that definitely didn't happen in any real world.

00:10:20.900 But that's, you know, that's the fate of public figures.

00:10:25.060 You get remembered for the opposite of whatever you were doing.

00:10:30.540 Anyway, the big story of the day

00:10:32.280 is that Trump is trying to cancel the pardons

00:10:36.480 that Biden made.

00:10:39.840 They were made with the auto pen.

00:10:41.580 Now, the auto pen is what presidents use

00:10:43.560 to sign things when they're not physically available.

00:10:48.260 But, you know, things that they've agreed to.

00:10:50.860 So it's not, there's nothing sketchy about it

00:10:53.340 the way it's been used in the past.

00:10:55.040 However, given what we know about Biden's administration

00:11:00.480 and given what we know about his mental acuity at the time

00:11:05.620 and given that there were some last-minute pardons,

00:11:09.720 it's not clear that Biden even knew they happened.

00:11:14.040 So does Trump have a good case?

00:11:17.560 Well, the smart thing that Trump is doing

00:11:20.780 and has consistently done is he says,

00:11:23.740 well, if the courts disagree,

00:11:25.780 then we'll follow the court.

00:11:28.620 And that's very disarming.

00:11:30.280 And it's very non-dictator.

00:11:32.040 And that's what he's doing here.

00:11:33.520 So he's taking a run at it.

00:11:36.340 That doesn't mean he'll succeed.

00:11:38.580 So the Supreme Court could say,

00:11:41.380 no, auto pen counts.

00:11:43.840 You know, there's nothing you can do about it.

00:11:45.760 Otherwise, blah, blah, blah.

00:11:49.020 So I've got a feeling he has no better than,

00:11:51.760 I don't know,

00:11:54.300 since I don't know much about the court

00:11:56.980 or how it would rule,

00:11:58.180 I'm going to say 50% chance that it will stick.

00:12:02.220 But boy, is this got to be scary to the,

00:12:05.500 what he calls the unselected group,

00:12:08.320 the people who ran the,

00:12:10.700 what I would consider the fake impeachment things,

00:12:15.440 or the fake January 6th stuff.

00:12:18.960 And they do have some explaining to do.

00:12:22.440 And there's a good reason that they wanted their pardons.

00:12:27.460 So this one's getting really dicey.

00:12:31.320 Getting really dicey.

00:12:32.660 Because if Trump succeeds in undoing the pardons

00:12:38.540 because of the auto pen,

00:12:42.480 Adam Schiff's probably going to jail.

00:12:48.620 Liz Cheney,

00:12:50.380 probably going to jail.

00:12:52.440 Because I do believe that the legal system

00:12:57.080 would find that they did

00:12:58.240 some pretty illegal things.

00:13:01.860 So at the very least,

00:13:04.020 they would be destroyed by the legal process,

00:13:06.520 which would be,

00:13:07.660 you know,

00:13:07.920 gigantically burdensome.

00:13:11.200 And my feeling about a lot of this stuff is that,

00:13:15.440 and Lindsey Graham did the best explanation 1.00

00:13:17.740 on a new show,

00:13:19.580 that once you look at the context

00:13:22.380 of what these same people did to Trump,

00:13:25.480 they tried to destroy him politically.

00:13:27.900 They tried to destroy his entire business.

00:13:31.100 They tried to destroy his family.

00:13:33.940 And they tried to put him in jail

00:13:36.080 for the rest of his life.

00:13:38.900 They did much the same to people

00:13:41.380 who supported him.

00:13:43.460 They went after the lawyers who supported him.

00:13:45.980 They went after his supporters

00:13:47.420 in every way that they could.

00:13:49.860 And in normal times,

00:13:53.020 I would say,

00:13:54.180 you know,

00:13:55.020 maybe let the past go.

00:13:58.060 You know,

00:13:58.320 yeah,

00:13:58.780 there was some dirty tricks there,

00:14:00.340 but,

00:14:01.200 you know,

00:14:01.460 let's not dwell on that.

00:14:03.260 Let's move forward.

00:14:04.260 Let's look forward.

00:14:05.540 But if you look at the totality

00:14:07.660 of the pure evil

00:14:09.860 that was aimed at him,

00:14:13.300 I'm 100% in favor of his revenge.

00:14:17.900 Because it feels personal.

00:14:21.020 You know,

00:14:21.600 I feel like I got dragged down

00:14:23.360 by the same bad guys.

00:14:26.780 You know,

00:14:27.260 lesser.

00:14:28.460 But do you think

00:14:29.520 I ever would have been canceled

00:14:30.820 if it hadn't been

00:14:32.420 for the Trump connection?

00:14:34.280 Nope.

00:14:35.360 Nope.

00:14:35.860 I don't think I would have been.

00:14:36.880 And so,

00:14:39.320 these are all of my enemies too.

00:14:43.960 And I wouldn't mind

00:14:45.560 seeing them taken down completely,

00:14:47.900 just destroyed.

00:14:50.380 Because I do think they earned it,

00:14:52.720 and I do think it would look like justice to me.

00:14:55.820 Like real justice.

00:14:57.400 Not the revenge-y,

00:14:59.660 you know,

00:15:00.320 I'm happy my team won kind of justice.

00:15:02.380 I don't want that kind.

00:15:03.880 I'm not looking for the

00:15:05.140 my team won,

00:15:05.980 your team lost kind of justice.

00:15:08.060 Nope.

00:15:08.940 I want the actual real kind.

00:15:11.580 Where if you're a motherfucker

00:15:13.420 for years and years and years,

00:15:15.900 and you're the most evil, 0.89

00:15:17.280 lying,

00:15:17.780 piece of shits in the world,

00:15:19.300 it's time for you to get flushed. 0.56

00:15:22.720 And I'm here for it.

00:15:25.200 So,

00:15:25.760 if Trump can get away with this,

00:15:27.260 that would be very good.

00:15:31.100 I would love it.

00:15:32.220 I don't think he will.

00:15:33.760 I've got a feeling

00:15:34.400 the Supreme Court is going to say,

00:15:36.020 uh,

00:15:37.060 we don't need this.

00:15:39.080 It's a little too much trouble.

00:15:42.740 So,

00:15:43.300 maybe regardless of,

00:15:45.040 you know,

00:15:45.340 the legality of it,

00:15:47.180 I still think the Supreme Court

00:15:48.900 might say,

00:15:49.900 you know,

00:15:50.800 we're going to find a reason

00:15:51.820 not to do this,

00:15:52.780 because it would just be

00:15:54.280 too destructive

00:15:54.980 to the Republic.

00:15:56.920 And they might be right.

00:15:58.520 But I'm still for it.

00:16:01.420 As you know,

00:16:02.800 lots of,

00:16:03.440 uh,

00:16:04.240 conservatives have been

00:16:05.360 swatted lately,

00:16:06.700 conservative pundits.

00:16:08.220 Um,

00:16:08.580 so data Republican,

00:16:09.960 you all know who she is,

00:16:11.700 right?

00:16:12.020 Data Republican is a great 1.00

00:16:13.860 data,

00:16:14.460 um,

00:16:15.760 analyst,

00:16:16.480 which feels like

00:16:18.080 too little,

00:16:19.800 because she's so good

00:16:20.940 that it feels like

00:16:22.300 she needs her own label. 0.93

00:16:24.100 But anyway,

00:16:24.520 she did an analysis of,

00:16:26.040 uh,

00:16:26.180 I think there are now

00:16:26.840 13 or 14 people

00:16:29.060 who have been swatted

00:16:29.820 recently,

00:16:30.340 but she had a list

00:16:32.160 of 10 or so

00:16:33.020 intended analysis

00:16:33.980 using AI

00:16:34.980 to try to find out

00:16:36.340 what they had in common,

00:16:37.300 uh,

00:16:39.120 and also,

00:16:39.740 which would maybe

00:16:40.640 help you figure out,

00:16:41.760 you know,

00:16:42.320 who was after them,

00:16:43.200 uh,

00:16:44.060 but also to maybe

00:16:45.000 predict who would be next.

00:16:47.980 Here are some of the things

00:16:49.120 that,

00:16:49.380 um,

00:16:49.740 that she found in common.

00:16:51.120 So a lot of the people

00:16:52.840 who got swatted,

00:16:54.120 um,

00:16:55.780 engaged with Elon Musk

00:16:57.560 on X,

00:16:58.380 uh,

00:16:59.780 their real life identities

00:17:01.200 were known,

00:17:01.940 so they weren't pseudonyms

00:17:03.520 or anything,

00:17:03.920 they used their real names,

00:17:05.260 or at least

00:17:06.180 their real names

00:17:07.040 were easy to find,

00:17:07.880 like Cat Turd.

00:17:09.740 Um,

00:17:10.220 they had

00:17:10.740 a good number

00:17:11.760 of followers,

00:17:12.640 usually over 50,000,

00:17:14.640 but actually most of the time

00:17:15.960 over 150,000.

00:17:17.260 Uh,

00:17:18.500 they were often guests

00:17:19.460 who were employees

00:17:20.200 for InfoWars,

00:17:21.820 uh,

00:17:22.500 War Room,

00:17:23.720 or similar

00:17:25.820 alt-media

00:17:27.180 kind of shows

00:17:28.000 on the right.

00:17:29.140 Uh,

00:17:29.700 then there's this one,

00:17:30.900 expressed pro-Israel

00:17:32.460 or at least

00:17:33.380 anti-Hamas sentiments.

00:17:36.400 Okay.

00:17:37.620 Um,

00:17:38.880 frequently amplified

00:17:40.240 other swatting victims

00:17:41.780 in the past,

00:17:42.840 so

00:17:43.560 it seems like

00:17:45.180 a network of people

00:17:46.080 who boosted each other.

00:17:48.240 And

00:17:48.960 many of them

00:17:49.780 were amplified

00:17:50.440 by based Mike Lee.

00:17:53.380 And the targets

00:17:54.620 were all male.

00:17:56.440 The targets

00:17:57.440 were all male.

00:17:59.020 That's interesting.

00:18:00.940 Um,

00:18:01.680 so

00:18:02.520 Data,

00:18:03.300 Data Republican

00:18:04.420 said,

00:18:04.940 uh,

00:18:05.520 that

00:18:05.880 her current

00:18:07.180 leading theory

00:18:07.960 is that it's

00:18:09.220 a terrorist

00:18:09.840 campaign targeting

00:18:10.920 ex and influencers

00:18:12.600 connected to

00:18:13.600 Elon Musk.

00:18:15.700 Hmm.

00:18:16.380 So,

00:18:18.080 and then somebody

00:18:20.880 said,

00:18:21.400 but what about

00:18:21.880 the fact that

00:18:22.600 they might be

00:18:23.200 anti-Ukraine?

00:18:25.160 And Data Republican,

00:18:26.460 this is why

00:18:26.920 she's so good,

00:18:28.080 she says that

00:18:28.940 the anti-Ukraine

00:18:29.820 doesn't add

00:18:30.520 much signal,

00:18:32.600 meaning that

00:18:33.500 since

00:18:34.200 most of the

00:18:35.600 conservative world

00:18:36.740 is anti-Ukraine

00:18:38.080 at the moment,

00:18:39.560 you can't really say

00:18:40.620 these ones

00:18:41.600 got swatted

00:18:42.560 because they're

00:18:43.100 anti-Ukraine,

00:18:43.920 because sort

00:18:45.220 of everybody

00:18:45.660 was.

00:18:47.260 Um,

00:18:47.780 so I don't

00:18:49.180 know.

00:18:50.060 So I guess

00:18:50.860 the theory

00:18:51.380 that it's,

00:18:52.080 it's,

00:18:52.660 uh,

00:18:52.920 anti-Elon

00:18:54.000 Musk,

00:18:55.140 I,

00:18:56.660 I would say

00:18:57.120 that's a

00:18:57.540 possibility.

00:18:59.000 Could be,

00:19:00.160 could be just

00:19:01.660 anti-Trump.

00:19:04.260 Um,

00:19:05.060 I don't know.

00:19:05.780 but it could

00:19:07.680 be stochastic 0.86

00:19:08.780 terrorism,

00:19:09.560 which is just

00:19:10.260 making it easier

00:19:11.140 to attack a

00:19:12.040 certain group

00:19:12.520 of people

00:19:12.960 who speak out.

00:19:15.100 But,

00:19:15.660 uh,

00:19:15.980 we'll see.

00:19:16.980 We'll see.

00:19:18.940 Uh,

00:19:19.420 um,

00:19:19.820 that's a good

00:19:20.380 analysis.

00:19:21.000 I don't think

00:19:21.380 it gives us

00:19:21.840 an answer,

00:19:23.300 but it,

00:19:24.500 you know,

00:19:24.880 maybe,

00:19:25.700 maybe it defines

00:19:27.080 things a little

00:19:27.840 bit better so

00:19:28.600 we know what

00:19:29.100 to look for.

00:19:30.780 And maybe

00:19:31.560 it will have

00:19:32.260 an effect,

00:19:33.020 could have,

00:19:33.680 you know,

00:19:34.120 if,

00:19:34.400 if the analysis

00:19:35.180 got anywhere

00:19:37.260 near the truth,

00:19:38.880 it might slow

00:19:40.860 it down.

00:19:41.460 Because now

00:19:42.120 we would be

00:19:42.520 looking for

00:19:43.100 these signals.

00:19:43.980 We'd say,

00:19:44.480 okay,

00:19:45.400 uh,

00:19:45.860 did you say

00:19:46.640 anything about,

00:19:47.860 did you interact

00:19:48.840 with Elon Musk,

00:19:49.880 et cetera.

00:19:50.540 Now,

00:19:51.020 even the

00:19:51.560 interacting with

00:19:52.320 Elon Musk thing,

00:19:53.800 uh,

00:19:55.040 to me,

00:19:56.220 that's not

00:19:56.960 much of a

00:19:57.460 signal,

00:19:57.820 because

00:19:59.260 Musk does 0.99

00:20:01.000 interact with

00:20:01.740 a whole bunch

00:20:02.320 of people.

00:20:03.760 Um,

00:20:04.280 and most

00:20:05.160 multiple times

00:20:05.800 sometimes,

00:20:06.200 so he's

00:20:06.680 interacted

00:20:07.100 with me

00:20:07.440 a number

00:20:07.720 of times.

00:20:09.140 And,

00:20:09.700 uh,

00:20:10.620 so,

00:20:11.180 I don't know,

00:20:11.640 he's interacted

00:20:12.260 with so many

00:20:12.840 people.

00:20:13.420 I'm not sure

00:20:13.980 that that's

00:20:14.440 the signal

00:20:14.880 it looks like.

00:20:16.120 Anyway.

00:21:17.800 President Trump

00:21:18.680 says he's going to

00:21:19.440 talk to Putin

00:21:20.980 tomorrow,

00:21:22.300 and doesn't it

00:21:25.360 seem to you like

00:21:26.300 that's way too

00:21:28.000 long to wait?

00:21:29.900 I mean, just

00:21:30.300 think about the

00:21:30.900 fact that there

00:21:31.680 are people in

00:21:32.260 ditches shooting

00:21:33.320 at each other

00:21:33.900 and dying,

00:21:35.200 you know, around

00:21:35.640 Kursk and all 0.90

00:21:37.380 around the front

00:21:38.040 lines, because I

00:21:38.760 assume the

00:21:39.200 fighting is just

00:21:40.540 going crazy even

00:21:41.420 though they're

00:21:42.200 talking peace.

00:21:43.500 So it's just so

00:21:45.620 weird that you'd

00:21:46.600 say, hey, can I

00:21:48.180 call you tomorrow?

00:21:50.600 Is there really no

00:21:51.920 reason they can

00:21:52.600 talk today?

00:21:53.920 Are they not

00:21:54.780 prepared?

00:21:56.460 Did they have

00:21:57.120 something more

00:21:57.740 important?

00:21:58.180 There are

00:21:59.160 people literally

00:22:00.000 just getting

00:22:00.580 torn to pieces

00:22:01.800 on the front

00:22:03.960 lines for no

00:22:04.780 reason, because

00:22:06.320 it looks like

00:22:07.240 things are going

00:22:07.780 to wind up.

00:22:09.080 So anybody

00:22:09.700 who gets killed

00:22:10.500 or wounded

00:22:11.020 today, that's

00:22:14.000 a complete waste

00:22:15.000 of humanity.

00:22:16.940 So I just

00:22:17.760 don't know how

00:22:18.280 you say, hey,

00:22:20.020 you're available

00:22:20.540 tomorrow?

00:22:21.260 Is tomorrow

00:22:21.900 good?

00:22:23.420 Today is good.

00:22:25.080 Like right now

00:22:25.760 is good.

00:22:26.240 That's how I

00:22:28.700 feel.

00:22:29.540 Now, if we

00:22:30.560 got something

00:22:30.980 done tomorrow

00:22:31.740 that was

00:22:32.740 important, I'd

00:22:33.920 be pretty happy

00:22:34.560 about it.

00:22:35.720 But this whole

00:22:36.700 thing about, you

00:22:38.300 know, if you're

00:22:38.760 serious about

00:22:39.680 ending the

00:22:40.880 killing, tomorrow

00:22:42.660 is really too

00:22:43.340 long.

00:22:44.540 But on the other

00:22:45.460 hand, you don't

00:22:46.020 want to act too

00:22:46.700 eager, because that

00:22:48.180 might hurt your

00:22:48.740 negotiating position.

00:22:50.500 But really?

00:22:52.320 How about today?

00:22:54.080 That's my take.

00:22:54.900 Anyway, according

00:23:00.040 to the New York

00:23:00.540 Post, Trump

00:23:01.240 said, we want

00:23:03.080 to see if we

00:23:03.580 can bring that

00:23:04.240 war to an

00:23:04.740 end.

00:23:06.540 He says, maybe

00:23:07.860 we can, maybe

00:23:08.560 we can't.

00:23:09.080 I think we have

00:23:09.680 a very good

00:23:10.580 chance.

00:23:11.160 Now, I think

00:23:11.500 he's talking

00:23:11.920 about his

00:23:12.980 conversation

00:23:13.580 tomorrow, that

00:23:15.120 maybe they're

00:23:15.880 far enough

00:23:16.720 along that he

00:23:17.620 might be able

00:23:18.060 to close the

00:23:18.640 deal.

00:23:19.200 That seems

00:23:19.840 like a stretch.

00:23:20.800 and he

00:23:22.520 said, a lot

00:23:23.900 of work's

00:23:24.340 been done

00:23:24.720 over the

00:23:25.080 weekend.

00:23:26.140 Now, a lot

00:23:26.780 of work's

00:23:27.120 been done

00:23:27.660 means that

00:23:28.860 they're close

00:23:29.600 to a deal.

00:23:31.620 And I don't

00:23:32.600 think he'd

00:23:33.080 make the

00:23:33.540 call, you

00:23:34.480 know, even

00:23:34.820 though, you

00:23:36.100 know, there's

00:23:36.460 urgency.

00:23:37.140 I don't think

00:23:37.900 he'd make the

00:23:38.420 call tomorrow

00:23:39.320 unless he felt

00:23:40.940 like there was

00:23:41.460 some chance

00:23:42.320 that whatever

00:23:43.840 remaining issues

00:23:44.920 there are, he

00:23:45.400 could close

00:23:45.920 on.

00:23:46.180 Now, remember

00:23:49.520 how I always

00:23:50.120 tell you that

00:23:50.700 you should

00:23:51.260 expect at

00:23:51.860 least one

00:23:52.300 walk away in

00:23:54.280 a big

00:23:54.900 negotiation?

00:23:56.200 There's usually

00:23:56.940 this point where

00:23:57.700 one side says,

00:23:58.560 all right, nope,

00:23:59.320 nope, we're

00:23:59.940 done, and they

00:24:01.360 walk away, and

00:24:02.300 they pretend, or

00:24:04.080 sometimes it's

00:24:04.740 real, that,

00:24:06.160 nope, I'm done

00:24:07.200 dealing with you,

00:24:08.000 I cannot make a

00:24:08.740 deal.

00:24:09.160 Now, what that

00:24:10.540 can do is

00:24:12.780 cause the one

00:24:13.480 who got walked

00:24:14.160 away on to

00:24:15.000 say, all right,

00:24:15.620 all right,

00:24:15.980 I'll offer

00:24:16.700 you a little

00:24:17.040 bit more, but

00:24:19.660 I'm not sure

00:24:20.460 there'll be a

00:24:20.960 walk away on

00:24:21.660 this one, and

00:24:23.700 the reason is

00:24:24.440 they're both

00:24:24.900 too smart.

00:24:27.560 If Trump

00:24:29.060 did a walk

00:24:29.640 away, Putin

00:24:30.680 would say,

00:24:31.260 that's not

00:24:31.740 real, he'll

00:24:32.340 come back.

00:24:33.560 If Putin

00:24:34.100 did a walk

00:24:34.600 away, Trump

00:24:35.160 would say,

00:24:35.520 that's not

00:24:35.940 real, he'll

00:24:36.900 come back.

00:24:38.080 So, I

00:24:38.980 think they

00:24:39.360 both know

00:24:39.980 each other

00:24:40.600 well enough

00:24:41.240 that a walk

00:24:42.460 away would

00:24:42.940 just look

00:24:43.460 sort of

00:24:45.080 stupid. 0.90

00:24:45.980 because you're

00:24:47.480 dealing with

00:24:47.920 two people

00:24:48.400 who are way

00:24:48.960 above the

00:24:49.620 line, they

00:24:52.120 both understand

00:24:52.900 how everything

00:24:53.540 works, right?

00:24:55.020 There's no

00:24:55.420 dumb one and

00:24:56.000 no smart

00:24:56.500 one.

00:24:56.900 They're just

00:24:57.320 two brilliant

00:24:58.100 people who

00:24:58.660 know how to

00:24:59.100 do this.

00:24:59.960 Exactly.

00:25:00.780 If you know

00:25:01.520 how to do

00:25:02.020 this, which

00:25:03.520 is negotiate

00:25:04.160 the hard

00:25:05.060 stuff, and

00:25:06.040 they do,

00:25:07.260 then the

00:25:07.860 walk away

00:25:08.400 is a little

00:25:09.440 bit unnecessary.

00:25:10.120 necessary.

00:25:12.380 The walk

00:25:13.140 away is

00:25:13.600 sort of

00:25:14.720 what you

00:25:15.040 do if

00:25:15.500 you're

00:25:15.660 dealing

00:25:15.880 with

00:25:16.120 somebody

00:25:16.440 who

00:25:16.580 is

00:25:16.680 just

00:25:16.860 not

00:25:17.120 good

00:25:17.380 at

00:25:17.580 it,

00:25:17.840 or

00:25:19.860 somebody

00:25:20.540 who

00:25:20.700 is

00:25:20.820 at

00:25:20.980 least

00:25:21.160 not

00:25:21.460 world

00:25:21.760 class

00:25:22.220 at

00:25:22.460 it.

00:25:23.620 So, I'm

00:25:24.200 going to

00:25:24.400 predict this

00:25:25.900 would be one

00:25:26.400 of those rare

00:25:27.060 negotiations

00:25:27.860 with no

00:25:29.400 walk away,

00:25:32.100 which is a

00:25:32.800 bold, that's a

00:25:33.540 pretty big

00:25:33.900 prediction,

00:25:34.760 because you

00:25:35.360 just normally

00:25:36.340 see a walk

00:25:36.980 away.

00:25:37.160 I just

00:25:37.860 don't think

00:25:38.180 there will

00:25:38.460 be in

00:25:38.720 this case,

00:25:39.540 because the

00:25:40.020 quality of

00:25:40.740 the two

00:25:41.000 people

00:25:41.200 are negotiating.

00:25:43.800 Well, Putin

00:25:44.740 said he

00:25:45.820 wants an

00:25:46.280 ironclad

00:25:47.040 guarantee

00:25:47.540 that Ukraine 0.91

00:25:48.240 will not

00:25:48.740 join NATO.

00:25:50.540 Now, do

00:25:52.140 you remember

00:25:52.440 when the

00:25:53.040 head of

00:25:53.880 NATO said,

00:25:55.080 nope, there's

00:25:55.580 no chance

00:25:56.080 that Ukraine 0.91

00:25:56.680 is going

00:25:58.560 to be part

00:25:59.080 of NATO?

00:26:00.000 And then

00:26:00.560 you realized,

00:26:01.380 okay, that

00:26:01.780 was after

00:26:02.180 talking to

00:26:02.800 Trump.

00:26:03.800 So, probably

00:26:05.160 Trump is the

00:26:06.600 one who

00:26:06.860 told NATO

00:26:07.380 to say

00:26:07.780 there's no

00:26:08.200 way Ukraine

00:26:09.200 is going

00:26:09.480 to be part

00:26:09.860 of it.

00:26:10.560 And then

00:26:10.940 you said

00:26:11.320 to yourself,

00:26:12.280 but wait,

00:26:13.860 Trump's giving

00:26:14.600 away something

00:26:15.200 for nothing.

00:26:16.340 Like, we

00:26:16.900 don't have a

00:26:17.420 deal yet.

00:26:18.820 Like, why

00:26:19.400 would he give

00:26:19.980 that away?

00:26:21.160 You know,

00:26:21.360 wouldn't that

00:26:21.740 be the thing

00:26:22.260 that you

00:26:22.500 would keep

00:26:22.880 as your

00:26:23.240 negotiating

00:26:23.800 card?

00:26:25.540 And then

00:26:26.120 you say

00:26:26.500 to yourself,

00:26:27.440 is that

00:26:29.200 really giving

00:26:29.740 anything away?

00:26:32.100 How could

00:26:32.780 you ever give

00:26:33.460 an ironclad

00:26:34.500 guarantee

00:26:35.020 that nobody

00:26:36.480 will ever

00:26:36.920 change their

00:26:37.480 mind about

00:26:38.020 Ukraine joining

00:26:38.820 NATO?

00:26:40.060 You can't.

00:26:41.520 All it

00:26:42.100 would take

00:26:42.540 is somebody

00:26:43.060 to say,

00:26:43.520 oh, I

00:26:43.720 changed my

00:26:44.200 mind.

00:26:45.480 That's it.

00:26:46.980 So, if

00:26:48.980 Trump and

00:26:49.660 NATO say,

00:26:50.440 yep, we

00:26:50.880 guarantee it,

00:26:52.180 there's no way

00:26:52.980 Ukraine will 0.90

00:26:53.620 ever be part

00:26:54.240 of NATO,

00:26:55.260 what exactly

00:26:56.080 are they giving

00:26:56.640 up?

00:26:57.960 Nothing.

00:26:59.920 That's literally

00:27:00.740 nothing.

00:27:01.160 because Putin

00:27:03.140 knows they

00:27:04.040 can just

00:27:04.380 change their

00:27:04.880 mind.

00:27:05.700 And they

00:27:06.300 know they

00:27:07.340 can just

00:27:07.680 change their

00:27:08.160 mind.

00:27:09.060 Now, they

00:27:09.420 wouldn't do

00:27:09.800 it unless,

00:27:11.180 probably unless

00:27:12.360 situation changed.

00:27:14.240 But if the

00:27:14.980 situation changed,

00:27:16.460 you don't think

00:27:17.120 they could NATO

00:27:17.860 up in about

00:27:18.480 five minutes?

00:27:19.900 Yeah, if they

00:27:20.620 wanted to, and

00:27:21.460 they had some

00:27:21.940 strategic reason

00:27:22.880 to do it,

00:27:23.500 yes.

00:27:24.380 Now, I don't

00:27:24.880 think they want

00:27:25.460 to, and I

00:27:26.580 don't think they'll

00:27:27.100 have that strategic

00:27:27.920 reason, but

00:27:29.240 it's a weird

00:27:29.880 one, because

00:27:30.840 the thing that

00:27:31.560 Putin wants

00:27:32.340 the most is

00:27:34.420 the cheapest

00:27:34.980 to give to

00:27:35.640 him.

00:27:36.980 It literally

00:27:37.600 doesn't cost

00:27:38.240 anything.

00:27:39.740 And it

00:27:41.300 doesn't even

00:27:41.780 bind us,

00:27:42.800 because if

00:27:44.140 it became

00:27:45.520 an important

00:27:47.300 security

00:27:48.040 consideration,

00:27:49.920 yeah,

00:27:50.660 Ukraine would 0.96

00:27:51.840 get NATO'd

00:27:52.540 up in five

00:27:53.080 minutes.

00:27:54.620 So, how

00:27:55.860 in the world

00:27:56.500 could you

00:27:57.520 guarantee

00:27:57.940 such a

00:27:58.440 thing?

00:27:59.720 Now, on

00:28:00.640 the other

00:28:00.920 side, Putin

00:28:02.280 has the

00:28:02.740 same situation.

00:28:04.260 We'd like

00:28:04.860 him to

00:28:06.160 guarantee

00:28:06.720 that if

00:28:08.300 we make

00:28:08.720 a deal,

00:28:09.420 he won't

00:28:09.860 make a

00:28:10.240 move on

00:28:10.660 the rest

00:28:11.080 of Ukraine

00:28:11.780 at some

00:28:12.220 later date.

00:28:14.060 How in

00:28:14.700 the world

00:28:15.200 could that

00:28:16.320 ever be

00:28:16.800 guaranteed?

00:28:18.140 It can't.

00:28:20.240 So, the

00:28:20.880 two things

00:28:21.500 that the

00:28:21.940 sides want,

00:28:22.660 the most

00:28:22.960 important two

00:28:23.580 things, you

00:28:24.660 know, one

00:28:24.980 wants NATO,

00:28:25.900 and the other

00:28:26.380 wants a

00:28:26.740 guarantee that

00:28:27.400 there would

00:28:27.640 be no

00:28:27.980 future

00:28:28.340 attacks,

00:28:29.140 that's

00:28:29.940 something that

00:28:30.580 both sides

00:28:31.480 can say,

00:28:32.160 okay, because

00:28:34.280 it's not giving

00:28:34.940 away anything.

00:28:36.100 There's no

00:28:36.860 asset there.

00:28:37.920 It's nothing.

00:28:39.240 You're not

00:28:39.700 giving away

00:28:40.280 anything, because

00:28:42.100 both sides

00:28:43.280 could just

00:28:43.900 change their

00:28:45.320 mind tomorrow.

00:28:46.480 And it's not

00:28:47.200 like we can

00:28:47.780 ask for

00:28:48.400 collateral,

00:28:50.180 right?

00:28:50.740 We can't

00:28:51.400 say, I'll

00:28:51.780 tell you

00:28:52.040 what.

00:28:53.740 We'll hold

00:28:54.520 Moscow as

00:28:55.600 collateral, and

00:28:57.100 in case you

00:28:57.880 attack, we

00:28:59.000 get to keep

00:28:59.460 Moscow.

00:29:01.160 No.

00:29:02.460 There's no

00:29:03.080 way you can

00:29:03.480 put collateral

00:29:04.180 on it.

00:29:05.460 What kind of

00:29:06.320 guarantee could

00:29:07.140 you ever come

00:29:07.700 up with?

00:29:08.580 Now, I'd

00:29:09.280 love to be

00:29:09.700 wrong.

00:29:11.700 I'd love to

00:29:12.520 find out that

00:29:13.220 there's some

00:29:13.680 clever way you

00:29:15.720 could guarantee

00:29:16.420 this sort of

00:29:17.080 thing, but I

00:29:18.560 don't think so.

00:29:19.280 So, that'll

00:29:22.340 be the hard

00:29:22.760 part.

00:29:23.560 How in the

00:29:23.980 world do you

00:29:24.420 do something

00:29:24.900 that would

00:29:26.000 guarantee

00:29:26.480 anything, when

00:29:29.020 both of them

00:29:29.660 absolutely need

00:29:30.800 guarantees?

00:29:33.020 I don't know.

00:29:33.840 It's going to

00:29:34.240 be really

00:29:34.560 interesting.

00:29:35.400 I do think

00:29:36.060 they can get

00:29:36.600 it done, but

00:29:37.780 only because

00:29:38.480 they're both

00:29:39.100 incentivized to

00:29:40.840 do it.

00:29:41.720 They both want

00:29:42.480 it done, and

00:29:44.620 they might trust

00:29:47.200 each other, at

00:29:47.840 least in the

00:29:48.300 short run.

00:29:49.800 But, in the

00:29:50.220 long run, I

00:29:50.920 don't know.

00:29:51.300 Nothing can be

00:29:51.900 guaranteed in the

00:29:52.540 long run.

00:29:54.960 Well, let's

00:29:55.640 talk about the

00:29:56.420 leaders of the

00:29:57.500 Democrats.

00:30:00.100 Josh Shapiro,

00:30:01.340 governor of

00:30:02.100 Pennsylvania, was

00:30:02.820 on Bill Maher's

00:30:03.480 show, and Bill

00:30:04.760 Maher was, you

00:30:05.500 know, talking

00:30:05.940 about him as

00:30:07.200 a potential, you

00:30:08.100 know, future

00:30:08.640 leader of the

00:30:09.680 Democrats, and

00:30:11.380 he said that

00:30:12.160 the people said

00:30:13.120 that you, Josh

00:30:15.300 Shapiro, couldn't

00:30:16.260 become the VP

00:30:17.280 choice to

00:30:18.500 Kamala Harris,

00:30:19.280 because you're

00:30:20.420 Jewish, and

00:30:22.300 that wouldn't

00:30:23.100 be successful,

00:30:25.700 you know, the

00:30:26.100 way our country

00:30:26.720 is.

00:30:28.460 And Josh

00:30:29.800 Shapiro had

00:30:30.600 just the best

00:30:32.360 answer to that.

00:30:33.940 Now, it's not

00:30:35.120 a complete answer

00:30:36.220 because he was

00:30:36.820 talking about being

00:30:37.560 governor, but he

00:30:38.760 said when he ran

00:30:39.480 for governor,

00:30:41.280 his first ad

00:30:43.480 featured his

00:30:44.840 Friday night

00:30:46.360 Shabbat, where

00:30:48.980 because of his

00:30:49.960 Jewish faith,

00:30:51.200 every Friday he'd

00:30:52.340 be gathering with

00:30:53.140 friends and

00:30:53.800 family and having

00:30:54.460 a celebratory,

00:30:56.980 you know, very

00:30:57.520 much in the

00:30:58.080 Jewish tradition

00:30:58.960 kind of a

00:30:59.500 dinner.

00:31:00.160 So instead of

00:31:01.020 hiding from it

00:31:02.140 or, well,

00:31:03.440 hiding is the

00:31:03.940 wrong word,

00:31:04.580 instead of

00:31:05.200 downplaying his

00:31:06.160 religion and just

00:31:07.400 saying stuff like,

00:31:08.300 oh, it doesn't

00:31:08.700 matter, it doesn't

00:31:09.160 matter, he just

00:31:10.300 opened the door

00:31:12.080 and said, here it

00:31:13.600 is, here's what

00:31:14.880 we do, you know,

00:31:16.680 I like my

00:31:17.460 religion, you

00:31:18.080 like your

00:31:18.480 religion, let's

00:31:21.180 talk.

00:31:22.300 Now, to me, that

00:31:23.260 was one of the

00:31:23.760 most brilliant

00:31:24.380 things he could

00:31:25.880 have ever done

00:31:26.480 because here's

00:31:28.160 what I know

00:31:28.580 about people.

00:31:31.060 People will

00:31:31.860 distrust anything

00:31:33.180 they're unfamiliar

00:31:34.020 with.

00:31:35.700 It's just sort

00:31:36.540 of a reflex.

00:31:37.920 So it's not

00:31:38.340 like that you

00:31:38.920 that people

00:31:39.640 would be

00:31:39.940 necessarily

00:31:40.740 anti-Semitic,

00:31:43.380 it would just

00:31:43.800 be something

00:31:44.820 different.

00:31:46.080 And they'd

00:31:46.380 say, I'm

00:31:47.240 not sure I

00:31:47.780 understand that

00:31:48.800 or I know

00:31:49.240 it or, you

00:31:50.280 know, I

00:31:50.460 don't know

00:31:50.820 anybody who

00:31:51.320 is Jewish,

00:31:51.900 they might

00:31:52.200 say.

00:31:53.460 So I'm

00:31:54.220 not sure I

00:31:54.620 trust it.

00:31:56.000 But if he

00:31:56.800 leads with it

00:31:57.680 and says, I

00:31:58.920 have no

00:31:59.240 secrets, here's

00:32:00.860 my deal, here's

00:32:02.440 how I worship,

00:32:03.580 I love how I

00:32:04.360 worship, I

00:32:05.520 love how you

00:32:06.020 worship, let's

00:32:08.060 let's all be

00:32:08.720 worshipers.

00:32:11.160 That is so

00:32:12.060 disarming.

00:32:13.460 It's just so

00:32:14.140 disarming.

00:32:15.480 So to me,

00:32:16.420 that's brilliant

00:32:16.960 just to lead

00:32:18.240 with it and

00:32:18.840 say, you

00:32:20.000 know, I'm a

00:32:20.500 good person,

00:32:21.580 you're a good

00:32:22.100 person, we

00:32:23.420 don't even need

00:32:23.920 to talk about

00:32:24.500 this.

00:32:24.820 But if you

00:32:25.120 have questions,

00:32:25.880 glad to answer

00:32:26.420 them.

00:32:27.960 The trouble

00:32:28.580 is I don't

00:32:29.080 think that would

00:32:29.540 work for

00:32:29.900 national office.

00:32:32.040 It's a brilliant

00:32:32.740 thing for a local

00:32:33.740 or governor.

00:32:34.980 But as soon

00:32:35.780 as you're

00:32:36.040 talking about

00:32:36.640 the federal

00:32:37.380 government, then

00:32:39.180 it instantly

00:32:39.860 turns into, so

00:32:41.300 how much do

00:32:42.700 you like Israel?

00:32:43.920 Are you going

00:32:44.800 to support

00:32:45.220 Israel over 0.99

00:32:46.120 the United

00:32:46.660 States?

00:32:47.780 Would you

00:32:48.420 treat it as

00:32:49.020 an equal?

00:32:50.180 You know, so

00:32:50.720 you get all

00:32:51.120 those questions.

00:32:52.720 And those

00:32:53.740 don't have to

00:32:55.380 do with whether

00:32:56.100 we like anybody's

00:32:57.320 choice of

00:32:58.440 religion.

00:32:59.120 It's more

00:32:59.800 about, hmm,

00:33:01.360 can we be

00:33:01.940 sure, you

00:33:02.700 know, people

00:33:03.100 would have

00:33:03.400 their doubts

00:33:03.980 basically about

00:33:07.220 whether America

00:33:08.340 first really

00:33:09.120 meant America

00:33:09.760 first, and

00:33:11.100 they wouldn't

00:33:11.460 know.

00:33:12.880 Now, I

00:33:14.380 have no reason

00:33:15.040 to think he's

00:33:15.900 anything but

00:33:16.500 America first,

00:33:17.660 so let me be

00:33:18.300 clear about

00:33:18.760 that.

00:33:20.020 But the

00:33:21.460 public would

00:33:22.620 probably have

00:33:23.080 their questions.

00:33:24.560 So yeah, that

00:33:25.180 might be a

00:33:25.600 problem running

00:33:26.260 for national

00:33:28.080 office.

00:33:28.760 I think we

00:33:29.260 need to get

00:33:29.820 there.

00:33:30.960 You know, the

00:33:31.260 same reason I

00:33:31.920 thought that

00:33:32.560 electing Obama

00:33:33.660 was a good

00:33:34.220 step for

00:33:34.760 America, regardless

00:33:36.460 of how you

00:33:37.160 think he

00:33:37.580 governed.

00:33:38.580 That's a

00:33:39.160 separate question.

00:33:40.620 But I

00:33:41.540 felt it was

00:33:42.120 healthy for

00:33:43.580 us to just

00:33:43.980 get over it.

00:33:45.040 I think it

00:33:45.420 was healthy

00:33:45.900 to get over

00:33:46.700 Kennedy being

00:33:47.940 Catholic.

00:33:50.420 You know, it's

00:33:51.120 better to just

00:33:51.640 go right at

00:33:52.240 it.

00:33:52.960 You know, I

00:33:54.020 think it was

00:33:54.540 healthy that

00:33:56.140 Hillary Clinton

00:33:57.440 was the

00:33:58.460 nominee and

00:33:59.340 Kamala Harris

00:34:00.020 was the

00:34:00.380 nominee.

00:34:00.700 and they

00:34:02.000 got close.

00:34:03.640 You know, even

00:34:04.100 not winning

00:34:04.720 felt like, hey,

00:34:06.780 that's the

00:34:07.420 America I want

00:34:08.120 to live in,

00:34:08.600 where everybody

00:34:09.080 gets a shot.

00:34:10.540 So yeah, I

00:34:11.860 think it'd be

00:34:12.220 good for the

00:34:12.700 country to

00:34:13.180 just have

00:34:13.540 somebody getting

00:34:15.100 close to

00:34:15.700 office, even

00:34:16.260 if they didn't

00:34:16.740 win.

00:34:18.440 All right.

00:34:22.440 Here's some

00:34:23.020 other people

00:34:23.520 that the

00:34:23.960 Democrats have.

00:34:24.800 according to

00:34:26.980 CNN, AOC is

00:34:28.940 seen as a

00:34:29.500 leader of the

00:34:30.020 Democratic

00:34:30.460 Party, with

00:34:31.480 Kamala Harris

00:34:32.320 as a

00:34:32.660 close second.

00:34:36.460 And of

00:34:37.220 course, there's

00:34:37.660 Jasmine

00:34:38.080 Crockett, who

00:34:39.140 is making a

00:34:39.660 lot of noise

00:34:40.780 on TV, and

00:34:42.820 Bernie

00:34:43.620 Sanders.

00:34:45.460 Reince

00:34:46.060 Priebus was

00:34:47.200 talking about

00:34:47.920 how lame the

00:34:48.980 Democrat

00:34:49.440 leadership is.

00:34:50.740 He says

00:34:51.140 that only AOC

00:34:52.020 and Bernie

00:34:52.820 Sanders can

00:34:53.520 get a crowd

00:34:54.100 of 20

00:34:54.680 people to

00:34:55.180 show up.

00:34:56.780 Now, that's

00:34:57.240 an exaggeration,

00:34:58.380 but not a

00:34:59.220 big one.

00:35:00.160 Not a big

00:35:00.680 one.

00:35:00.960 It's an

00:35:01.260 excellent point.

00:35:02.980 But just

00:35:03.380 think about

00:35:04.180 the people

00:35:06.520 who are the

00:35:08.200 leaders, from

00:35:09.240 Chuck Schumer

00:35:10.220 to AOC,

00:35:11.720 Kamala Harris,

00:35:13.680 Tim

00:35:14.100 Walsh,

00:35:14.760 Jasmine

00:35:15.140 Crockett,

00:35:16.840 Bernie

00:35:17.220 Sanders,

00:35:19.520 Nancy

00:35:20.120 Pelosi,

00:35:22.020 why can

00:35:23.120 I never

00:35:23.480 remember the

00:35:24.240 minority

00:35:24.720 leader,

00:35:26.620 what's his

00:35:28.380 name?

00:35:29.660 What's the

00:35:30.360 minority

00:35:30.700 leader's

00:35:31.340 name?

00:35:33.320 Why can't

00:35:34.040 I remember

00:35:34.400 him?

00:35:34.620 Anyway,

00:35:35.640 so, yeah,

00:35:37.860 they have a

00:35:38.300 real problem.

00:35:39.980 But it

00:35:40.540 seems to me

00:35:41.100 that they've

00:35:41.780 also painted

00:35:43.100 themselves in

00:35:43.740 a corner.

00:35:45.260 Hakeem,

00:35:45.860 Hakeem

00:35:46.440 Jeffries,

00:35:46.940 thank you.

00:35:47.320 And Hakeem

00:35:49.720 Jeffries has

00:35:50.460 an unfortunate

00:35:51.240 vibe problem.

00:35:53.960 I'm sure he's

00:35:54.840 very smart,

00:35:56.320 or he wouldn't

00:35:56.960 be in his

00:35:57.340 position.

00:35:58.300 But there's

00:35:59.640 just something

00:36:00.200 about his

00:36:01.120 persona that

00:36:03.340 just reeks

00:36:05.100 of, I

00:36:06.760 don't trust

00:36:07.300 you.

00:36:08.360 It's the

00:36:09.000 darndest thing.

00:36:09.720 You'd have to

00:36:10.140 try pretty hard

00:36:10.960 to look

00:36:12.340 untrustworthy

00:36:13.220 every single

00:36:14.100 time you

00:36:14.500 talk.

00:36:15.680 Yeah.

00:36:16.700 He's got

00:36:17.340 that movie

00:36:18.860 character look

00:36:21.280 that says,

00:36:22.040 okay, you

00:36:22.500 can play a

00:36:22.980 bad guy in

00:36:23.580 this movie.

00:36:25.080 And I

00:36:25.760 don't know

00:36:26.040 how to fix

00:36:27.580 that.

00:36:28.140 That doesn't

00:36:28.600 seem fixable

00:36:29.380 by just

00:36:29.880 smiling more.

00:36:31.400 So they

00:36:32.140 don't really

00:36:32.500 have much

00:36:32.820 going on.

00:36:33.580 I think

00:36:33.860 they're going

00:36:34.600 to have to

00:36:34.940 pick, again,

00:36:36.580 I think

00:36:36.960 they'll have

00:36:37.260 to pick a

00:36:37.700 woman, 1.00

00:36:38.540 because the

00:36:39.380 Democrats are

00:36:40.680 very woman

00:36:41.600 focused.

00:36:42.580 And I think

00:36:43.260 the woman 0.98

00:36:43.660 will have to

00:36:44.140 be a

00:36:44.800 woman of

00:36:45.300 color.

00:36:46.280 So that

00:36:46.940 says AOC,

00:36:48.040 Kamala Harris,

00:36:49.120 Jasmine Crockett.

00:36:51.420 And I

00:36:52.340 don't think

00:36:52.760 any of

00:36:53.120 them can

00:36:53.420 win against

00:36:54.660 any solid

00:36:55.660 Republican

00:36:56.200 candidate.

00:36:57.520 So how

00:36:58.320 in the

00:36:58.600 world,

00:36:59.520 how in

00:36:59.860 the world

00:37:00.320 will they

00:37:00.720 ever go

00:37:01.460 back in

00:37:01.860 power?

00:37:15.960 Scotiabank,

00:37:16.680 you're richer

00:37:17.140 than you

00:37:17.480 think.

00:37:19.500 Anyway,

00:37:20.180 speaking of

00:37:20.620 Jasmine Crockett,

00:37:21.460 she was talking

00:37:21.940 about Trump

00:37:22.820 using that,

00:37:24.060 what I like to

00:37:25.180 call the

00:37:25.600 Adams era

00:37:26.480 law.

00:37:27.420 Now this is

00:37:28.160 referring to

00:37:29.160 President John

00:37:29.940 Adams.

00:37:31.080 And you

00:37:32.020 know the

00:37:32.680 story that

00:37:33.120 Trump used

00:37:34.260 the Alien

00:37:34.960 Enemies Act

00:37:35.820 from 1798,

00:37:37.480 which would

00:37:38.800 allow the

00:37:39.180 president to

00:37:39.780 detain or

00:37:40.580 deport

00:37:40.980 non-citizens

00:37:42.300 from an

00:37:43.540 enemy country

00:37:44.420 during war.

00:37:46.400 And I

00:37:47.160 think he

00:37:47.520 set the

00:37:48.280 stage for

00:37:50.280 that by

00:37:50.840 declaring that

00:37:51.800 these

00:37:52.980 Trenda or

00:37:54.040 Wagwa gang

00:37:55.720 members were

00:37:57.180 terrorists. 0.53

00:37:58.680 So suddenly,

00:38:00.120 if they're

00:38:00.680 terrorists and

00:38:01.340 they're coming

00:38:01.720 from another

00:38:02.320 country,

00:38:03.660 you know,

00:38:03.920 you're pretty

00:38:04.620 close to saying

00:38:05.360 that you're at

00:38:05.980 war with them 1.00

00:38:06.600 and that the

00:38:08.540 president can

00:38:09.140 kick them 0.96

00:38:09.560 out.

00:38:10.440 Well, as

00:38:11.420 the airplanes

00:38:12.360 were in the

00:38:13.280 air to

00:38:14.540 deport these

00:38:15.460 very people,

00:38:16.960 there was a

00:38:17.940 judge, of

00:38:18.720 course, it's

00:38:19.220 going to be

00:38:19.480 an Obama

00:38:20.540 appointee,

00:38:21.500 lefty judge

00:38:22.460 that they

00:38:22.800 found,

00:38:23.780 questioned the

00:38:24.880 use of the

00:38:25.460 law in this

00:38:26.480 particular context

00:38:27.480 and said that

00:38:28.820 those planes

00:38:29.760 need to turn

00:38:30.440 around even if

00:38:31.260 they're already

00:38:31.680 in the air.

00:38:32.180 But,

00:38:33.860 apparently,

00:38:35.200 and it's

00:38:35.460 being credited

00:38:36.560 to Stephen

00:38:37.340 Miller,

00:38:38.440 they had

00:38:39.220 rushed the

00:38:41.160 flights so

00:38:42.980 that by the

00:38:43.440 time the

00:38:43.820 judge ruled,

00:38:45.220 the flights

00:38:46.000 were already

00:38:46.600 in international

00:38:47.320 waters.

00:38:48.920 And the

00:38:49.580 counter-argument

00:38:50.440 is going to

00:38:50.920 be, hey,

00:38:52.080 that ruling

00:38:52.880 doesn't apply

00:38:53.680 because these

00:38:55.260 people are

00:38:57.840 not even in

00:38:58.440 the United

00:38:58.820 States anymore.

00:38:59.780 They're in

00:39:00.060 international

00:39:00.580 waters.

00:39:01.360 And then they

00:39:01.860 land.

00:39:03.060 And sure

00:39:04.000 enough,

00:39:05.240 El Salvador

00:39:05.800 processed them

00:39:07.840 and put them

00:39:08.560 in the El

00:39:09.660 Salvador

00:39:09.980 prisons.

00:39:11.720 So we'll

00:39:12.620 see if that

00:39:13.060 gets reversed.

00:39:15.300 If it does

00:39:15.780 get reversed,

00:39:17.080 then people

00:39:17.580 like Jasmine

00:39:18.220 Crockett,

00:39:18.860 who are

00:39:19.200 arguing against

00:39:20.440 it, once

00:39:22.480 again, are

00:39:24.360 going to be

00:39:24.740 on the

00:39:25.420 ridiculous

00:39:25.820 side.

00:39:27.360 Now, I

00:39:27.940 realize that

00:39:29.000 Jasmine's

00:39:29.980 argument has

00:39:30.760 some nuance

00:39:31.360 nuance to

00:39:32.260 it.

00:39:32.640 She's not

00:39:33.060 saying, I

00:39:33.600 like evil

00:39:35.100 gang members.

00:39:36.380 She's saying,

00:39:37.140 if the

00:39:37.380 president is

00:39:38.020 allowed to

00:39:38.460 use this

00:39:38.960 rule in

00:39:39.520 that way,

00:39:40.740 it will be

00:39:41.420 expanded and

00:39:42.300 he'll do

00:39:42.740 bad things in

00:39:43.540 the future.

00:39:43.940 future.

00:39:46.820 You notice that

00:39:48.040 a lot of

00:39:48.420 complaints about

00:39:50.220 Trump are

00:39:51.380 things that

00:39:52.040 they imagine

00:39:52.680 he would do

00:39:53.220 in the

00:39:53.480 future, which

00:39:55.620 is the

00:39:55.920 weirdest kind

00:39:56.540 of complaint,

00:39:57.180 because you

00:39:58.100 can say that

00:39:58.680 about everybody

00:39:59.500 all the

00:39:59.980 time.

00:40:01.160 It's like,

00:40:01.620 well, I

00:40:02.920 like this

00:40:03.460 candidate, but

00:40:04.300 I worry that

00:40:06.480 they'll round

00:40:07.040 everybody up and

00:40:07.920 murder them in

00:40:08.580 the future.

00:40:09.680 Is there any

00:40:10.480 evidence that

00:40:11.120 they want to

00:40:11.540 do that?

00:40:11.980 No, no.

00:40:13.640 But based on

00:40:14.920 the fake news

00:40:15.640 I've been

00:40:15.960 reading, it

00:40:16.940 sounds like

00:40:17.380 exactly the

00:40:18.160 sort of thing

00:40:18.600 they do in

00:40:19.480 the future.

00:40:19.860 Anyway, so

00:40:29.480 Trump wants

00:40:30.240 to deport

00:40:30.840 gang members

00:40:31.560 any way he

00:40:32.200 can, and

00:40:32.960 the Democrat

00:40:33.480 argument about

00:40:34.480 it is,

00:40:35.320 according to

00:40:36.160 Jasmine Crockett,

00:40:37.800 the argument

00:40:38.320 against getting

00:40:39.040 rid of these

00:40:39.580 dangerous gang

00:40:40.340 members any

00:40:41.040 way we can

00:40:41.680 is blah,

00:40:43.160 blah,

00:40:44.340 should use

00:40:45.660 a scalpel,

00:40:47.000 blah, blah

00:40:47.460 concept,

00:40:48.840 blah, blah,

00:40:49.400 vague fear

00:40:50.260 of the

00:40:50.480 future.

00:40:52.280 They really

00:40:53.180 have nothing.

00:40:55.940 And I love

00:40:56.940 the thing that

00:40:58.300 Trump does

00:40:58.960 so, so

00:40:59.920 well is

00:41:01.560 communicating in

00:41:02.760 a relatable

00:41:03.420 way.

00:41:05.180 These are

00:41:05.880 terrible people.

00:41:06.700 We're going to

00:41:06.940 do whatever we

00:41:07.560 can to get

00:41:07.980 them out of

00:41:08.300 our country.

00:41:09.000 Got it.

00:41:10.200 Got it.

00:41:11.620 Counter argument.

00:41:13.000 Well, this is

00:41:14.020 a law that

00:41:14.840 might be used

00:41:15.840 outside of

00:41:16.480 its context,

00:41:17.460 and, you

00:41:18.240 know, I

00:41:18.480 worry that he's

00:41:19.380 using a hatchet

00:41:21.200 instead of a

00:41:21.960 scalpel, and

00:41:23.400 what if he did

00:41:24.280 bad things in

00:41:25.040 the future?

00:41:26.840 And then you

00:41:27.580 hear that and

00:41:28.100 you go,

00:41:28.980 none of that

00:41:30.020 stuck to my

00:41:31.520 brain.

00:41:32.000 Could you

00:41:32.300 say it again?

00:41:34.420 Oh, well,

00:41:35.220 the law,

00:41:35.960 1798,

00:41:37.340 out of context,

00:41:38.920 and, you know,

00:41:39.500 the legal

00:41:40.200 processes,

00:41:41.540 and the

00:41:42.180 scalpel.

00:41:43.720 What?

00:41:45.040 And then

00:41:45.700 Trump says,

00:41:46.480 these are

00:41:47.160 terrible,

00:41:48.080 murderous

00:41:48.540 people.

00:41:49.020 We're going

00:41:49.480 to get rid

00:41:49.860 of them

00:41:50.100 any way we

00:41:50.560 can.

00:41:50.880 Got it.

00:41:51.860 Got it.

00:41:56.000 Well,

00:41:56.580 libs of

00:41:56.900 TikTok and

00:41:58.360 others were

00:41:58.880 showing that

00:41:59.540 according to

00:42:00.780 the Border

00:42:02.080 Patrol,

00:42:03.000 the amount

00:42:03.360 of fentanyl

00:42:04.140 seized at the

00:42:04.900 U.S.-Mexico

00:42:05.480 border is

00:42:06.220 down 40%

00:42:08.280 since January.

00:42:09.020 It's lowest

00:42:09.740 level since

00:42:10.520 2021.

00:42:12.200 Now,

00:42:12.520 that would

00:42:12.840 suggest that

00:42:14.380 closing the

00:42:15.060 border also

00:42:16.880 has already

00:42:17.660 greatly reduced

00:42:18.820 the flow of

00:42:19.440 fentanyl,

00:42:20.240 right?

00:42:22.120 Well,

00:42:23.140 probably not.

00:42:24.980 It might be

00:42:26.100 that the

00:42:26.480 fentanyl is

00:42:27.480 reduced,

00:42:28.420 but not

00:42:29.340 because the

00:42:29.840 border got

00:42:30.480 better controlled.

00:42:32.220 Because if

00:42:33.200 you didn't

00:42:33.460 know this,

00:42:34.700 the fentanyl

00:42:35.420 is not

00:42:35.960 coming across

00:42:36.840 in the

00:42:37.320 pockets of

00:42:38.860 the individuals

00:42:39.560 who are

00:42:40.000 walking across

00:42:40.900 the border

00:42:41.440 in places

00:42:42.480 we didn't

00:42:43.020 want them

00:42:43.400 to walk

00:42:43.840 across the

00:42:44.400 border.

00:42:45.500 That's not

00:42:46.160 how it gets

00:42:46.660 in.

00:42:47.620 That would

00:42:48.060 be the worst

00:42:48.540 way to do

00:42:49.060 it.

00:42:49.580 It turns

00:42:50.020 out that

00:42:50.900 almost all

00:42:51.960 of it goes

00:42:53.740 in automobiles

00:42:54.940 that are

00:42:55.900 legally entering

00:42:56.780 the country.

00:42:59.040 So it's not

00:43:00.080 like there's a

00:43:00.620 lot of illegal

00:43:02.140 entries that

00:43:03.160 also had

00:43:03.880 fentanyl that

00:43:04.940 almost doesn't

00:43:05.600 exist.

00:43:06.460 What it is,

00:43:07.360 is that we

00:43:08.020 can only check

00:43:08.700 maybe 20%

00:43:10.240 of the

00:43:10.560 traffic.

00:43:11.960 And because

00:43:12.380 it's so

00:43:12.840 cheap to

00:43:13.500 make fentanyl,

00:43:14.600 you wouldn't

00:43:15.340 really care

00:43:15.900 if 20%

00:43:16.580 of it got

00:43:17.000 caught,

00:43:17.900 as long

00:43:18.880 as 80%

00:43:19.480 didn't.

00:43:20.780 So since

00:43:21.640 I don't

00:43:21.980 think there's

00:43:22.400 been any

00:43:22.800 real change

00:43:23.580 in how

00:43:24.300 the traffic,

00:43:25.640 the legal

00:43:26.240 traffic back

00:43:27.100 and forth

00:43:27.680 that goes

00:43:28.640 through legal

00:43:29.280 checkpoints,

00:43:30.080 I don't think

00:43:30.760 there's been

00:43:31.080 a change

00:43:31.540 there.

00:43:33.040 So one

00:43:34.260 of the changes

00:43:34.800 there could

00:43:35.300 be is a 0.95

00:43:37.160 lot of

00:43:37.680 expense to

00:43:38.380 bring in

00:43:38.780 some kind

00:43:40.500 of scanning

00:43:41.040 devices that

00:43:41.860 they can use

00:43:42.420 on automobiles.

00:43:43.800 But even

00:43:44.160 then it would

00:43:44.680 slow down

00:43:45.220 traffic to

00:43:45.900 the point

00:43:46.280 where I'm

00:43:46.940 not sure

00:43:47.260 you can

00:43:47.560 really do

00:43:47.980 it because

00:43:49.060 it would

00:43:49.260 just stop

00:43:49.840 all border

00:43:51.140 traffic.

00:43:52.900 So here's

00:43:54.140 what I

00:43:54.400 think.

00:43:55.220 I don't

00:43:56.040 think that

00:43:56.500 the decrease

00:43:57.380 in illegal

00:43:58.600 entries is

00:44:00.420 really correlated

00:44:01.320 with the

00:44:01.840 decrease in

00:44:02.560 fentanyl.

00:44:03.740 But if

00:44:04.980 fentanyl is

00:44:05.900 actually way

00:44:06.640 down, and

00:44:07.740 it might

00:44:08.000 be, you

00:44:08.620 know, they

00:44:08.840 only report

00:44:09.460 what they

00:44:09.760 caught, not

00:44:10.600 what got

00:44:11.380 through.

00:44:11.960 So we

00:44:12.420 don't know

00:44:12.960 that it's

00:44:13.280 down.

00:44:13.840 We just

00:44:14.220 know that

00:44:14.540 what we

00:44:14.900 caught is

00:44:16.380 way down.

00:44:17.480 It could

00:44:18.220 be that

00:44:18.680 there's some

00:44:19.440 other pressure

00:44:21.020 on the

00:44:21.540 fentanyl

00:44:21.960 dealers.

00:44:22.980 I assume

00:44:23.800 there is.

00:44:24.460 So it

00:44:24.880 could be

00:44:25.200 that the

00:44:25.600 labs are

00:44:26.880 being

00:44:27.820 disrupted

00:44:28.400 and they

00:44:29.120 have to

00:44:29.420 relocate

00:44:30.100 because they're

00:44:30.620 worried about

00:44:31.120 our Reaper

00:44:32.100 drones getting

00:44:32.840 ready to

00:44:33.400 set them

00:44:34.200 on fire.

00:44:35.220 So it

00:44:35.860 could be

00:44:36.180 just the

00:44:36.540 operation is

00:44:37.260 completely

00:44:37.880 skedaddling

00:44:39.280 to try to

00:44:40.540 hide their

00:44:40.940 labs and

00:44:41.600 it's going

00:44:42.440 to take a

00:44:42.880 couple months

00:44:43.380 before they

00:44:43.880 can crank

00:44:44.380 up.

00:44:45.420 And maybe

00:44:45.700 just that.

00:44:46.740 Could be

00:44:47.380 that there's

00:44:48.500 enough pressure

00:44:49.140 on China,

00:44:50.460 finally,

00:44:51.840 that the

00:44:53.100 fewer

00:44:53.460 precursors are

00:44:54.420 making it to

00:44:54.960 Mexico to be 0.92

00:44:55.760 turned into

00:44:56.240 fentanyl.

00:44:57.340 Maybe.

00:44:57.960 I think that's

00:44:58.540 the least

00:44:58.920 likely.

00:45:00.160 But if I

00:45:00.860 had to guess,

00:45:02.320 probably there's

00:45:03.420 enough credible

00:45:05.020 military threat

00:45:06.380 that the

00:45:07.880 labs are

00:45:08.520 just shutting

00:45:09.360 down and

00:45:09.840 relocating so

00:45:11.180 temporarily they

00:45:12.100 can't make

00:45:12.560 much product.

00:45:14.420 Just a

00:45:15.140 guess.

00:45:16.120 But I don't

00:45:16.920 think it's

00:45:17.280 because there

00:45:18.780 are fewer

00:45:19.260 illegal crossings.

00:45:20.840 I just don't

00:45:21.280 think they're

00:45:21.660 correlated.

00:45:23.920 According to

00:45:24.640 the Telegraph,

00:45:26.200 more eggs

00:45:27.020 than fentanyl

00:45:27.700 are being

00:45:28.060 seized in the

00:45:28.780 border.

00:45:29.060 more eggs

00:45:31.300 than fentanyl.

00:45:32.240 It turns out

00:45:32.920 that eggs are

00:45:33.640 really cheap

00:45:34.260 south of the

00:45:35.120 border.

00:45:36.220 So a whole

00:45:36.860 bunch of

00:45:37.220 people thought,

00:45:37.940 huh, why

00:45:39.240 don't I just

00:45:39.760 buy eggs in

00:45:41.460 Mexico, get a 0.86

00:45:43.180 bunch of extra,

00:45:44.420 and then go

00:45:45.120 north and sell

00:45:46.560 them for twice

00:45:48.500 as much as I

00:45:49.220 bought them.

00:45:50.580 And so a lot

00:45:51.200 of people are

00:45:51.580 doing that.

00:45:52.620 So there's

00:45:54.460 some possibility

00:45:55.220 that the

00:45:55.720 cartels are

00:45:56.380 getting out of

00:45:56.880 the fentanyl

00:45:57.480 business and

00:45:58.100 moving into

00:45:58.620 eggs.

00:46:00.080 No, just

00:46:00.880 kidding.

00:46:01.280 They wouldn't

00:46:01.620 do that.

00:46:02.580 But the

00:46:04.360 egg smuggling

00:46:05.520 business has

00:46:06.800 taken over

00:46:09.800 for fentanyl.

00:46:13.920 Laura Loomer

00:46:14.760 has another

00:46:15.800 scoop.

00:46:16.940 This time

00:46:17.600 she found

00:46:18.540 that Hunter

00:46:18.980 Biden apparently

00:46:19.760 has been living

00:46:20.400 in South

00:46:20.920 Africa in

00:46:22.500 a hotel.

00:46:24.180 She calls

00:46:24.820 it a five

00:46:25.360 star oceanside

00:46:26.500 villa.

00:46:26.800 and I

00:46:28.220 guess he's

00:46:28.540 got full

00:46:29.040 secret service

00:46:30.000 protection,

00:46:31.260 which seems

00:46:33.200 very expensive.

00:46:34.540 Seems very

00:46:35.100 expensive to

00:46:35.820 have a secret

00:46:36.300 service in

00:46:37.820 another country

00:46:38.640 sort of

00:46:39.860 permanently,

00:46:40.980 semi-permanently,

00:46:42.320 especially at a

00:46:43.320 seaside resort

00:46:44.360 kind of place.

00:46:46.040 So that's

00:46:47.120 weird.

00:46:47.540 But as Laura

00:46:48.540 Loomer points

00:46:49.200 out, he

00:46:50.920 has claimed

00:46:51.920 that he has

00:46:52.460 no money,

00:46:53.100 so he

00:46:54.120 did a

00:46:54.840 signed

00:46:55.080 declaration

00:46:55.680 in court

00:46:56.120 that he's

00:46:56.460 poor,

00:46:57.100 but yet he's

00:46:58.060 living like

00:46:58.780 a person

00:46:59.360 who does

00:46:59.740 have money.

00:47:01.080 So the

00:47:01.980 question would

00:47:02.500 be, where

00:47:04.180 is the money

00:47:04.560 coming from?

00:47:05.300 Or did you

00:47:06.080 lie when he

00:47:06.680 said he

00:47:07.000 didn't have

00:47:07.360 any?

00:47:08.100 Maybe he

00:47:08.820 just sells

00:47:09.280 one painting

00:47:09.900 a week,

00:47:10.580 and it's

00:47:10.920 all he

00:47:11.160 needs to

00:47:11.660 support his

00:47:12.180 lifestyle.

00:47:13.480 No,

00:47:13.700 no.

00:47:14.840 But yeah,

00:47:16.000 hunters in

00:47:16.600 South Africa.

00:47:17.980 When was the

00:47:18.520 last time you

00:47:19.020 heard a story

00:47:19.780 about South

00:47:20.460 Africa that 0.96

00:47:21.960 wasn't about

00:47:22.560 something bad?

00:47:26.600 Because there's

00:47:27.360 another South

00:47:28.020 Africa story

00:47:29.620 about,

00:47:31.820 apparently,

00:47:32.340 South Africa

00:47:32.880 has some

00:47:34.080 kind of a

00:47:34.560 research facility

00:47:36.200 in Antarctica.

00:47:40.460 And let's

00:47:41.360 see, let me

00:47:41.960 skip ahead to

00:47:42.600 that.

00:47:44.720 Well, I'll

00:47:45.220 do that in

00:47:45.640 order.

00:47:46.040 We'll get to

00:47:46.520 that.

00:47:46.780 There's a

00:47:47.080 story about

00:47:47.560 a research

00:47:48.180 facility.

00:47:49.640 Anyway,

00:47:49.900 according to

00:47:53.360 Breitbart

00:47:53.720 News,

00:47:54.280 there's a

00:47:54.700 representative

00:47:55.320 Brandon

00:47:57.040 Ongill,

00:47:58.480 or Ongill?

00:48:00.480 Brandon

00:48:01.040 Gill.

00:48:02.380 Yeah,

00:48:02.980 Brandon

00:48:03.280 Gill.

00:48:04.180 And he

00:48:04.580 wants to

00:48:04.980 see if

00:48:05.820 he can

00:48:07.060 get the

00:48:07.620 Congress

00:48:08.240 to prohibit

00:48:09.720 foreign

00:48:10.200 countries

00:48:10.660 from buying

00:48:12.240 real estate

00:48:12.920 in America

00:48:13.580 if that

00:48:14.780 country doesn't

00:48:15.580 allow Americans

00:48:16.300 to buy real

00:48:17.000 estate in

00:48:17.560 their country.

00:48:18.120 Now, China 0.97

00:48:19.180 would be

00:48:19.640 obviously the

00:48:20.300 main target

00:48:20.840 of this

00:48:21.280 because China

00:48:23.960 buys a lot

00:48:24.500 of property

00:48:24.900 in the U.S.

00:48:26.660 and farmland

00:48:27.760 especially.

00:48:29.120 So what do

00:48:29.480 you think

00:48:29.680 about that?

00:48:31.420 To me,

00:48:32.120 that seems

00:48:32.520 like an easy

00:48:33.100 one.

00:48:34.180 Yeah,

00:48:34.420 if we can't

00:48:35.120 buy land

00:48:35.640 in China,

00:48:36.860 why do we

00:48:37.680 let China 0.98

00:48:38.180 buy land

00:48:38.860 in the United

00:48:39.300 States?

00:48:41.140 I mean,

00:48:41.620 that just

00:48:42.200 seems basic.

00:48:44.580 You know,

00:48:45.000 it has to

00:48:45.820 be at least

00:48:46.240 reciprocal.

00:48:46.800 So,

00:48:48.560 yeah,

00:48:48.920 I'd be

00:48:49.200 in favor

00:48:49.520 of that.

00:48:52.100 It would

00:48:52.720 be expensive.

00:48:53.780 It would

00:48:53.960 probably

00:48:54.240 lower

00:48:54.680 property

00:48:56.760 costs,

00:48:57.420 which would

00:48:57.760 be good

00:48:58.060 for people

00:48:58.540 buying stuff.

00:48:59.740 When I

00:49:00.060 found out

00:49:00.480 my friend

00:49:00.960 got a

00:49:01.300 great deal

00:49:01.900 on a

00:49:02.260 wool coat

00:49:02.660 from Winners,

00:49:03.500 I started

00:49:04.260 wondering,

00:49:05.180 is every

00:49:06.000 fabulous item

00:49:06.780 I see

00:49:07.200 from Winners?

00:49:08.100 Like that

00:49:08.800 woman over 0.99

00:49:09.280 there with

00:49:09.740 the designer

00:49:10.180 jeans.

00:49:10.980 Are those

00:49:11.600 from Winners?

00:49:12.540 Ooh,

00:49:13.140 are those

00:49:13.500 beautiful gold

00:49:14.120 earrings?

00:49:14.980 Did she pay 0.97

00:49:15.420 full price?

00:49:16.060 Or that

00:49:16.600 leather tote?

00:49:17.360 Or that

00:49:17.600 cashmere

00:49:17.960 sweater?

00:49:18.540 Or those

00:49:18.880 knee-high

00:49:19.200 boots?

00:49:19.980 That dress?

00:49:20.800 That jacket?

00:49:21.480 Those shoes?

00:49:22.500 Is anyone

00:49:23.300 paying full price

00:49:24.240 for anything?

00:49:25.460 Stop wondering.

00:49:26.720 Start winning.

00:49:27.660 Winners find

00:49:28.480 fabulous for

00:49:29.280 less.

00:49:29.660 Meanwhile,

00:49:32.280 the EPA

00:49:32.900 chief,

00:49:33.620 Lee Zeldin,

00:49:35.000 he's saying

00:49:35.480 that Trump's

00:49:36.780 deregulation

00:49:37.700 push,

00:49:38.520 and he's

00:49:39.080 a big part

00:49:39.680 of it,

00:49:40.960 he said

00:49:41.540 on Fox

00:49:42.040 News,

00:49:43.300 that's the

00:49:44.000 most amount

00:49:44.680 of deregulation

00:49:45.720 ever.

00:49:47.980 And

00:49:48.480 he said

00:49:50.340 the Biden

00:49:51.520 and Obama

00:49:52.340 administration

00:49:52.880 treated

00:49:53.280 regulations

00:49:53.860 like commandments,

00:49:54.720 targeting energy

00:49:55.900 supply and

00:49:56.620 raising costs.

00:49:57.420 and then

00:50:00.300 Trump wants

00:50:01.020 the U.S.

00:50:01.620 to be

00:50:02.100 energy

00:50:02.820 dominant,

00:50:03.880 so a whole

00:50:04.460 bunch of

00:50:05.100 regulations are

00:50:06.000 going.

00:50:06.560 But they're

00:50:07.100 still focused

00:50:07.740 on making

00:50:08.120 sure there's

00:50:08.600 clean air

00:50:09.160 and land

00:50:09.600 and basically

00:50:12.460 clean air,

00:50:13.580 land,

00:50:13.860 and water

00:50:14.260 while growing

00:50:15.160 the economy.

00:50:15.720 Now,

00:50:18.160 assuming this

00:50:19.120 is all

00:50:19.460 true,

00:50:20.720 and assuming

00:50:21.340 that the

00:50:21.780 regulations

00:50:22.260 they got

00:50:22.740 rid of

00:50:23.180 were things

00:50:23.740 that really

00:50:24.240 were slowing

00:50:24.800 down our

00:50:26.160 energy business,

00:50:28.080 I'd expect

00:50:29.160 it would

00:50:29.520 take at

00:50:30.720 least three

00:50:31.540 years for

00:50:33.520 the reduction

00:50:34.660 in all these

00:50:36.420 regulations to

00:50:37.340 really show up

00:50:38.320 in the economy.

00:50:39.480 So I feel

00:50:40.440 like Trump's

00:50:41.540 third year

00:50:42.600 is going

00:50:43.960 to be

00:50:44.200 insane.

00:50:45.720 Because a

00:50:46.600 whole bunch

00:50:47.060 of things

00:50:47.440 he's doing

00:50:47.940 from tariffs

00:50:49.000 to deregulation,

00:50:52.560 those things

00:50:55.540 don't make

00:50:56.680 an immediate

00:50:57.180 positive impact

00:50:58.720 and might

00:50:59.200 be negative

00:51:00.280 in the short

00:51:00.780 run.

00:51:01.680 But by the

00:51:02.560 third year,

00:51:03.640 you should

00:51:04.140 start seeing

00:51:04.720 it in prices,

00:51:06.460 and then it's

00:51:07.120 going to be

00:51:07.460 crazy.

00:51:09.020 So I don't

00:51:10.740 think I've

00:51:11.160 ever been

00:51:11.540 more bullish

00:51:12.240 on the

00:51:13.680 United States.

00:51:14.500 Now,

00:51:14.700 the big

00:51:14.960 thing is

00:51:15.980 still

00:51:16.200 Doge.

00:51:17.360 If Doge

00:51:18.320 can't bring

00:51:18.880 down the

00:51:20.980 expenses and

00:51:22.400 make that

00:51:22.840 work, then

00:51:23.940 all bets are

00:51:24.640 off.

00:51:25.480 But it does

00:51:26.320 look like

00:51:26.800 it's going

00:51:28.360 to make a

00:51:29.360 good run

00:51:29.760 at it,

00:51:30.340 at the very

00:51:30.840 least.

00:51:31.920 So I don't

00:51:32.920 think the

00:51:33.360 United States

00:51:34.060 has been a

00:51:34.840 better investment

00:51:35.820 maybe at any

00:51:38.460 time since

00:51:39.280 the end of

00:51:40.880 the Great

00:51:41.940 Depression.

00:51:43.580 If at the

00:51:44.480 end of the

00:51:45.020 Depression you

00:51:45.660 had any

00:51:46.160 money at

00:51:46.560 all and

00:51:47.060 you bought

00:51:47.320 a few

00:51:47.580 stocks, you

00:51:49.160 got really

00:51:49.760 rich because

00:51:51.100 that was the

00:51:51.840 worst looking

00:51:53.420 period in

00:51:54.040 American economic

00:51:55.420 history, but

00:51:57.240 it was also the

00:51:57.860 bottom.

00:51:58.900 So if you

00:51:59.400 bought a stock

00:51:59.980 then, you

00:52:00.820 were pretty

00:52:01.300 happy.

00:52:02.280 I feel like

00:52:03.220 we're in a

00:52:03.720 similar situation.

00:52:05.640 Now, obviously,

00:52:06.640 everything could

00:52:07.280 go to hell

00:52:07.860 because any

00:52:09.580 surprise could

00:52:10.340 happen.

00:52:10.840 We get hit by

00:52:11.400 a meteor, a

00:52:12.260 war happens

00:52:12.860 that we

00:52:13.140 didn't expect.

00:52:14.340 Anything could

00:52:14.940 happen.

00:52:16.120 But the

00:52:18.000 promise of

00:52:19.420 what the

00:52:19.840 third year of

00:52:20.740 Trump's

00:52:21.320 administration

00:52:22.340 looks like,

00:52:24.180 I don't think

00:52:25.340 I've ever seen

00:52:26.060 a more optimistic

00:52:27.060 set of

00:52:28.620 variables coming

00:52:29.460 together.

00:52:30.500 I mean, this

00:52:30.860 looks really

00:52:31.460 strong at

00:52:32.420 this point.

00:52:35.260 Well, Trump

00:52:36.180 is using

00:52:37.120 the government's

00:52:39.680 control over

00:52:41.100 federal funding

00:52:42.440 for college

00:52:43.220 research to

00:52:45.140 put pressure

00:52:45.940 on colleges.

00:52:46.860 So Columbia

00:52:47.340 already lost

00:52:48.340 $400 million

00:52:49.660 in grants

00:52:50.380 because the

00:52:51.600 government says

00:52:52.480 they're too

00:52:53.780 anti-Semitic or

00:52:55.060 they're allowing

00:52:55.620 too much

00:52:56.040 anti-Semitism.

00:52:57.840 And there

00:52:58.740 are apparently

00:52:59.360 hundreds of

00:53:00.060 schools,

00:53:01.280 these federal

00:53:02.080 grants for

00:53:03.140 every kind of

00:53:04.240 research,

00:53:05.380 educational,

00:53:06.300 medical,

00:53:06.640 agriculture,

00:53:07.780 all kinds

00:53:08.140 of research.

00:53:09.340 And apparently

00:53:09.860 in 2021,

00:53:11.040 the last time

00:53:12.360 we have numbers

00:53:12.920 for it,

00:53:13.900 the federal

00:53:14.620 government gave

00:53:15.360 $49 billion

00:53:16.760 for federal

00:53:18.860 research and

00:53:19.700 development funding.

00:53:21.760 $49 billion

00:53:23.160 to colleges,

00:53:25.640 which, again,

00:53:27.480 was a big part

00:53:28.900 of their entire

00:53:29.480 funding.

00:53:29.880 Now, what do

00:53:32.300 you think we

00:53:32.700 got for those

00:53:33.360 $49 billion?

00:53:36.580 Are you aware

00:53:37.900 of anything

00:53:39.440 that's coming

00:53:40.060 out of college

00:53:40.860 research that's

00:53:42.780 changing anything?

00:53:45.480 Because you know

00:53:46.260 what I worry?

00:53:47.480 What I worry about

00:53:48.580 is that we got

00:53:49.360 nothing for it

00:53:50.260 and that it's

00:53:52.080 just a bunch of

00:53:52.760 people who are

00:53:53.600 rushing to

00:53:54.680 publish any kind

00:53:56.580 of science they

00:53:57.220 can.

00:53:57.480 because I

00:53:58.740 don't think we

00:53:59.280 say, okay,

00:54:00.080 we'll only give

00:54:00.900 you this money

00:54:01.540 if your research

00:54:04.280 is really good

00:54:05.280 for the economy

00:54:06.040 and good for

00:54:06.720 America.

00:54:08.820 I doubt it.

00:54:10.740 I'll bet it's a

00:54:11.480 whole bunch of

00:54:12.100 we're going to

00:54:13.360 prove that DEI

00:54:14.400 is the best thing

00:54:15.180 in the world.

00:54:16.220 We're going to

00:54:16.660 prove that there

00:54:17.360 are more than

00:54:18.040 two genders. 0.91

00:54:19.820 We're going to

00:54:20.380 prove,

00:54:20.880 I feel like

00:54:23.220 it's going to

00:54:24.700 be a whole

00:54:25.100 bunch of

00:54:25.640 just backward

00:54:27.080 science and

00:54:28.060 random correlations

00:54:29.420 and, you know,

00:54:30.840 slapped together

00:54:32.200 research with

00:54:33.240 students collecting

00:54:35.120 data that nobody

00:54:36.320 trusts and

00:54:38.360 nobody's, you

00:54:39.440 know, we already

00:54:40.080 know that the

00:54:40.660 peer review articles

00:54:42.560 or the peer review

00:54:44.040 process doesn't

00:54:45.800 work at all.

00:54:46.440 So even being

00:54:49.120 peer reviewed

00:54:49.880 doesn't really

00:54:51.140 make it true,

00:54:52.220 more than half

00:54:53.120 the time anyway.

00:54:54.680 So wouldn't

00:54:56.300 you love to

00:54:56.860 see some kind

00:54:58.340 of a top

00:54:59.360 10, here's

00:55:01.140 what we got

00:55:01.660 for our 49

00:55:02.700 billion dollars?

00:55:06.200 I feel like

00:55:07.380 most of that

00:55:07.880 was wasted.

00:55:09.840 But I wonder

00:55:10.660 if it's 100%

00:55:11.600 was wasted.

00:55:13.280 And I also

00:55:14.080 think to myself,

00:55:14.860 if they were

00:55:16.340 doing research

00:55:17.120 that could be

00:55:17.820 sort of

00:55:18.240 immediately turned

00:55:19.260 into product,

00:55:20.800 you know,

00:55:20.980 let's say they

00:55:21.940 were doing

00:55:22.240 research on,

00:55:24.040 I don't know,

00:55:25.360 a new cancer

00:55:26.100 cure or a

00:55:27.940 new way to

00:55:28.440 make batteries

00:55:29.080 last longer.

00:55:29.900 That is the

00:55:30.420 sort of thing

00:55:30.840 that they

00:55:31.160 might be

00:55:31.480 doing.

00:55:33.060 How much

00:55:33.740 of that

00:55:34.040 wouldn't have

00:55:34.700 been funded

00:55:35.280 by industry?

00:55:38.020 I feel like

00:55:38.820 industry would

00:55:39.560 have funded

00:55:39.900 that, right?

00:55:41.060 Because it

00:55:41.660 can't be super

00:55:42.580 expensive to do

00:55:43.500 a study like

00:55:44.160 that.

00:55:45.300 So, you

00:55:46.280 know, you

00:55:46.680 don't think

00:55:47.100 Tesla would

00:55:47.900 say, okay,

00:55:48.940 if you're

00:55:49.360 working on a

00:55:49.880 way to make

00:55:51.140 our batteries

00:55:51.720 last twice as

00:55:52.640 long, yeah,

00:55:53.840 we'll shoot you

00:55:55.540 half a million

00:55:56.100 dollars for

00:55:57.060 that.

00:55:58.500 So I'm not

00:55:59.400 sure any of

00:56:00.040 this makes

00:56:00.440 sense, that

00:56:01.280 the federal

00:56:01.800 government should

00:56:02.540 be even in

00:56:03.080 the business

00:56:03.540 of funding

00:56:04.140 research when

00:56:06.200 private industry

00:56:08.160 presumably would

00:56:09.420 want to fund

00:56:10.380 it too.

00:56:10.960 There might be

00:56:11.360 some exceptions,

00:56:12.220 but I'd like to

00:56:13.480 see the argument

00:56:14.020 for why we

00:56:14.700 do this.

00:56:16.780 According to

00:56:17.620 Slay News,

00:56:18.940 Frank Bergman's

00:56:19.820 writing, that

00:56:20.780 the World

00:56:21.160 Economic Forum

00:56:22.120 is asking for

00:56:25.000 a global ban

00:56:26.200 on homegrown

00:56:27.120 food.

00:56:29.020 Homegrown food.

00:56:31.180 Now, they're

00:56:32.060 talking mostly

00:56:32.740 about urban

00:56:33.480 gardens, where

00:56:35.260 people put a

00:56:36.040 little garden in

00:56:36.900 the middle of a

00:56:37.400 city.

00:56:37.620 and the

00:56:38.980 argument is

00:56:39.600 that these

00:56:40.480 little gardens

00:56:41.120 are so

00:56:41.700 inefficient

00:56:42.300 that they

00:56:44.080 contribute more

00:56:45.520 badness to

00:56:46.320 the environment

00:56:47.380 than they

00:56:48.080 produce in

00:56:48.940 food.

00:56:50.520 And it would

00:56:51.260 be better if

00:56:51.820 everybody just

00:56:52.440 got their food

00:56:53.220 from the big

00:56:53.740 farms instead

00:56:55.860 of trying to

00:56:56.400 grow it at

00:56:56.860 home.

00:56:57.800 To which I

00:56:58.560 say, does

00:57:01.280 anybody listen

00:57:02.120 to the World

00:57:02.720 Economic Forum

00:57:03.620 in 2025?

00:57:06.380 I feel like

00:57:07.260 didn't Klaus

00:57:08.880 Schwab already 0.53

00:57:11.520 retire?

00:57:12.960 I feel like the

00:57:13.920 World Economic

00:57:14.560 Forum isn't

00:57:15.180 really even a

00:57:15.960 thing that

00:57:17.740 anybody pays

00:57:18.400 attention to.

00:57:19.800 And here would

00:57:20.420 be a very good

00:57:21.640 reason why nobody

00:57:23.260 pays attention.

00:57:24.700 It doesn't feel

00:57:25.640 like a 2025

00:57:26.420 problem, does

00:57:27.500 it?

00:57:28.320 It feels like

00:57:29.600 a 2020

00:57:30.620 problem.

00:57:32.340 Oh, that

00:57:32.860 World Economic

00:57:33.600 Forum, they 0.97

00:57:34.200 have too much

00:57:34.700 power.

00:57:35.640 Now it just

00:57:36.300 seems like a

00:57:37.300 club for rich

00:57:38.120 people.

00:57:39.320 And they put

00:57:40.720 out some weird

00:57:41.500 proclamations

00:57:42.340 that nobody

00:57:42.760 cares about.

00:57:43.780 I mean, none

00:57:44.160 of it's binding.

00:57:46.080 So, anyway.

00:57:50.920 I guess there

00:57:51.880 are 70, they

00:57:52.760 did a study of

00:57:53.500 73 urban

00:57:54.500 agriculture sites

00:57:55.780 around the

00:57:56.220 world.

00:57:57.320 We don't

00:57:58.020 care.

00:57:59.500 Grace Price,

00:58:01.240 who you know

00:58:02.280 because she

00:58:02.620 talks about

00:58:03.160 nutrition and

00:58:04.460 food problems

00:58:05.440 in the United

00:58:05.900 States.

00:58:08.100 She points

00:58:09.000 out that the

00:58:10.380 American Heart

00:58:11.500 Association has

00:58:14.320 on their

00:58:15.060 forum, General

00:58:17.060 Mills and

00:58:17.860 PepsiCo.

00:58:20.240 So, when you

00:58:21.500 think of things

00:58:22.320 that are good

00:58:22.780 for your heart,

00:58:24.120 do you think

00:58:24.700 of General

00:58:26.660 Mills and

00:58:27.440 PepsiCo?

00:58:28.160 So, they're

00:58:30.140 major members

00:58:31.700 of the

00:58:32.420 American Heart

00:58:33.000 Association.

00:58:34.120 Now, does

00:58:34.540 that matter?

00:58:36.160 Do you think

00:58:37.080 you'll see any

00:58:37.680 impact because

00:58:38.720 those entities

00:58:40.000 are on the

00:58:40.620 American Heart

00:58:41.560 Association?

00:58:42.920 Well, maybe

00:58:43.700 because there

00:58:44.520 was this bill,

00:58:45.760 SB 379,

00:58:47.620 that would

00:58:49.140 have removed

00:58:51.640 from the

00:58:52.580 SNAP

00:58:52.960 program, which

00:58:53.920 is a program

00:58:54.780 for people

00:58:55.600 without money

00:58:56.240 to buy

00:58:56.580 food.

00:58:58.260 So, right

00:58:58.640 now, those

00:58:59.160 people could

00:58:59.800 use the

00:59:00.340 government money

00:59:01.120 to buy

00:59:01.900 candy, soda,

00:59:03.100 cookies, and

00:59:03.740 chips.

00:59:05.700 And so,

00:59:09.840 there was an

00:59:10.440 effort to say,

00:59:11.360 well, you can

00:59:11.980 buy food, but

00:59:13.780 we don't think

00:59:14.300 you should be

00:59:14.720 using the

00:59:15.200 government money

00:59:15.900 for candy,

00:59:16.720 soda, cookies,

00:59:17.880 and chips.

00:59:18.320 Now, who

00:59:19.920 do you

00:59:20.120 think makes

00:59:20.700 at least

00:59:22.460 these soda,

00:59:23.720 cookies, and

00:59:24.340 chips?

00:59:26.420 Two members

00:59:27.400 of the

00:59:27.740 board, or

00:59:28.800 the forum.

00:59:30.440 And so,

00:59:31.740 the American

00:59:32.260 Heart

00:59:33.040 Association

00:59:33.740 came out

00:59:35.000 against,

00:59:36.220 against

00:59:37.700 banning

00:59:39.520 candy,

00:59:40.740 soda,

00:59:41.220 cookies, and

00:59:41.880 chips from

00:59:42.820 government-funded

00:59:43.880 food buying.

00:59:45.640 They came

00:59:46.520 out against

00:59:47.120 it.

00:59:47.400 the American

00:59:48.500 Heart

00:59:48.880 Association.

00:59:51.240 Now, let

00:59:52.280 me ask this

00:59:52.880 question again.

00:59:55.260 Are there

00:59:56.140 any large

00:59:56.900 organizations

00:59:57.640 that are not

00:59:58.880 corrupt?

01:00:01.180 I wonder

01:00:02.440 if there

01:00:02.920 are.

01:00:04.300 It just

01:00:04.920 seems to

01:00:05.400 me that

01:00:05.980 everything

01:00:07.800 that matters

01:00:08.540 has been

01:00:09.520 penetrated by

01:00:10.480 somebody who

01:00:11.220 had the

01:00:11.580 ability to

01:00:12.240 penetrate

01:00:12.540 them.

01:00:13.520 So, it

01:00:14.140 feels like

01:00:14.880 there just

01:00:16.340 aren't any

01:00:17.080 large

01:00:17.800 organizations

01:00:18.500 that you

01:00:19.000 can trust

01:00:19.620 at all.

01:00:21.300 Like, they

01:00:21.940 all get

01:00:22.360 corrupted one

01:00:24.080 way or

01:00:24.400 another, either

01:00:25.340 through money

01:00:26.000 or membership

01:00:26.740 or something.

01:00:28.420 So, there

01:00:28.880 you go.

01:00:29.780 According to

01:00:30.340 Neoscoop,

01:00:31.760 Neoscoop,

01:00:33.660 Neural,

01:00:34.420 Sabaya's

01:00:34.880 writing,

01:00:35.800 that apparently

01:00:36.700 human intelligence

01:00:37.720 seems to be

01:00:38.740 dropping sharply.

01:00:39.780 so people

01:00:41.540 are getting

01:00:41.960 dumber, but

01:00:43.220 really quickly,

01:00:44.840 like, more

01:00:45.400 so than

01:00:46.060 other times

01:00:47.400 in history.

01:00:49.060 So,

01:00:50.460 apparently, it's

01:00:51.100 not just your

01:00:51.780 imagination.

01:00:54.480 People

01:00:55.080 are losing

01:00:56.480 the ability

01:00:57.020 to critically

01:00:57.660 think and

01:00:58.400 to concentrate

01:00:59.000 and to do

01:00:59.900 reasoning.

01:01:00.700 They're bad

01:01:01.260 at problem

01:01:01.780 solving,

01:01:02.560 their information

01:01:03.400 processing

01:01:04.020 skills.

01:01:04.360 basically,

01:01:05.760 all aspects

01:01:07.060 of intelligence

01:01:07.900 are dropping

01:01:09.300 like a rock,

01:01:10.940 sort of

01:01:11.640 everywhere in

01:01:12.180 the modern

01:01:12.560 world.

01:01:14.440 And the

01:01:15.280 thinking is

01:01:15.920 that, you

01:01:16.420 know, it

01:01:16.700 might be

01:01:17.000 some combination

01:01:17.780 of, you

01:01:18.920 know, things

01:01:19.400 in the

01:01:20.100 environment.

01:01:21.120 It might be

01:01:21.440 the food.

01:01:22.260 It might be

01:01:22.640 the pollution.

01:01:23.600 It might be

01:01:23.980 the lead.

01:01:25.340 It might be

01:01:25.760 the phones.

01:01:26.980 It might be,

01:01:27.900 you know,

01:01:28.980 the screens.

01:01:31.140 So, you

01:01:32.100 know, I

01:01:32.480 think mostly

01:01:33.800 the phones.

01:01:34.360 If you

01:01:35.820 had to

01:01:36.040 pick one

01:01:36.440 thing, it

01:01:37.240 would be

01:01:37.420 the technology,

01:01:38.360 mostly the

01:01:38.840 phones.

01:01:39.820 But I'm

01:01:40.880 going to

01:01:41.060 offer a

01:01:41.560 counterpoint.

01:01:43.280 You ready

01:01:43.560 for this?

01:01:45.500 Yes, it's

01:01:46.300 true that

01:01:47.780 a human

01:01:48.300 is getting

01:01:49.040 dumber.

01:01:50.100 Humans.

01:01:51.020 So, we're

01:01:51.420 all getting

01:01:51.760 dumber.

01:01:52.880 However,

01:01:53.940 we're not

01:01:55.080 human anymore.

01:01:56.940 We are

01:01:57.660 cyborg.

01:01:58.980 If I have

01:01:59.840 a phone in

01:02:00.440 my hand,

01:02:01.640 I'm smarter

01:02:02.660 than anybody

01:02:03.520 in history

01:02:04.120 has ever

01:02:04.600 been.

01:02:06.280 Right?

01:02:07.520 As long

01:02:08.180 as I

01:02:08.420 know how

01:02:08.780 to talk

01:02:09.380 to AI

01:02:09.880 and ask

01:02:10.560 questions

01:02:11.020 and search

01:02:11.520 for stuff

01:02:12.040 or even

01:02:13.480 just text

01:02:14.180 somebody who

01:02:14.680 knows the

01:02:15.020 answer that

01:02:15.540 I want to

01:02:16.980 know the

01:02:17.240 answer to.

01:02:17.660 So, if

01:02:20.560 you say

01:02:20.980 that people

01:02:21.420 are getting

01:02:21.820 dumber,

01:02:22.680 that's

01:02:23.640 true, but

01:02:25.560 I wonder

01:02:25.960 if it's

01:02:26.380 relevant.

01:02:27.860 Because

01:02:28.340 cyborgs,

01:02:29.400 which is

01:02:29.860 what we

01:02:30.220 are, we've

01:02:31.220 evolved into

01:02:31.880 a cyborg

01:02:32.540 state.

01:02:34.020 A cyborg is

01:02:35.180 way smarter

01:02:35.780 than anybody

01:02:36.820 in history.

01:02:37.360 Do you have

01:02:38.580 a question?

01:02:39.200 If I've got

01:02:39.700 my phone in

01:02:40.300 my hand, I

01:02:40.840 can get an

01:02:41.320 answer.

01:02:42.580 So, does

01:02:44.140 it make sense

01:02:44.680 to compare

01:02:45.140 cyborgs to

01:02:46.720 humans without 1.00

01:02:50.560 factoring in

01:02:51.980 the fact that

01:02:52.640 the cyborg

01:02:53.420 part, you

01:02:54.440 know, the

01:02:54.680 technical part

01:02:55.480 gives them a

01:02:56.480 superpower?

01:02:56.980 I don't

01:02:58.500 know.

01:02:59.540 I don't

01:03:00.220 know.

01:03:02.700 I think that

01:03:03.620 even people

01:03:04.220 who are bad

01:03:04.780 at critical

01:03:05.540 thinking are

01:03:07.060 going to

01:03:07.320 just start

01:03:07.780 asking their

01:03:08.460 phone.

01:03:11.560 Yesterday, I

01:03:12.500 wanted to

01:03:13.340 heat up some

01:03:14.700 water for

01:03:15.400 tea, and

01:03:17.540 I'd never

01:03:18.340 done that in

01:03:18.840 a microwave.

01:03:19.820 All of my

01:03:20.420 other ways to

01:03:20.960 make hot water

01:03:21.560 were broken.

01:03:22.800 That's another

01:03:23.260 story.

01:03:24.440 So, I have

01:03:25.100 at least several

01:03:25.740 ways to make

01:03:26.360 hot water.

01:03:26.980 They're all

01:03:27.420 broken.

01:03:28.640 I've got a

01:03:29.040 hot water

01:03:29.580 spout that's

01:03:31.020 full of

01:03:31.580 pollution.

01:03:32.400 It's just

01:03:32.820 bad news.

01:03:35.200 So, I

01:03:35.460 thought, how

01:03:35.880 long do I

01:03:36.600 microwave this?

01:03:38.580 So, I took

01:03:39.160 out ChatGPT

01:03:40.300 and put it

01:03:40.800 in video

01:03:42.100 mode, and

01:03:43.480 I just

01:03:43.840 made it

01:03:45.620 look at my

01:03:46.360 cup of

01:03:47.240 water, and

01:03:48.420 I said, how

01:03:48.860 long should I

01:03:49.320 microwave this?

01:03:50.040 It's like, well,

01:03:50.600 one to two

01:03:51.060 minutes.

01:03:51.500 Perfect.

01:03:52.880 So, there's

01:03:54.140 nothing I can't

01:03:54.880 figure out.

01:03:55.600 in like a

01:03:57.420 moment.

01:03:58.380 It was kind

01:03:59.260 of fun.

01:04:00.780 Anyway, according

01:04:01.700 to PC

01:04:02.860 Magazine, Will

01:04:03.640 McCurdy's

01:04:04.160 writing about

01:04:04.600 this, Open

01:04:05.580 AI says that

01:04:07.420 China could

01:04:09.440 compel the

01:04:10.180 deep-seek AI

01:04:11.160 that comes from

01:04:11.940 China to

01:04:12.420 cause harm.

01:04:13.840 And so, Open

01:04:14.760 AI says that

01:04:15.640 the Chinese AI

01:04:16.920 should be

01:04:17.520 banned.

01:04:18.040 Now, who's

01:04:20.120 surprised about

01:04:20.880 that?

01:04:22.300 Not me.

01:04:24.620 One of the

01:04:25.200 things I've been

01:04:25.700 telling you about

01:04:26.300 AI is that no

01:04:28.060 matter how good

01:04:28.780 it is, the

01:04:30.660 problem is going

01:04:31.320 to be that

01:04:31.700 humans are going 1.00

01:04:32.340 to try to ban

01:04:32.980 it for a number

01:04:33.640 of reasons.

01:04:35.140 So, this is

01:04:36.060 ChatGPT trying

01:04:37.180 to ban Chinese 0.99

01:04:38.560 AI, but it 0.92

01:04:41.240 seems to me

01:04:41.840 that there's

01:04:42.380 pressure against

01:04:43.180 OpenAI to,

01:04:45.060 you know, they've

01:04:45.480 got legal pressure,

01:04:46.380 there's going

01:04:47.140 to be the

01:04:47.460 copyright things.

01:04:49.700 It's lawyers.

01:04:51.320 Lawyers and

01:04:52.000 laws and humans

01:04:53.080 are just going

01:04:53.860 to be such an

01:04:55.680 impediment to

01:04:57.040 AI.

01:04:58.160 Makes you wonder

01:04:58.720 if AI can ever

01:04:59.580 get to the next

01:05:00.200 level, or else

01:05:01.880 we'd stop it.

01:05:03.200 We'd find some

01:05:04.140 reason.

01:05:04.640 It's like, oh,

01:05:05.100 it's too dangerous,

01:05:06.020 you have to stop.

01:05:07.260 Oh, it comes from

01:05:08.040 another country,

01:05:08.860 you better stop.

01:05:10.040 Now, I do agree

01:05:11.460 with banning the

01:05:12.280 Chinese AI, it 0.84

01:05:13.620 is too dangerous.

01:05:14.300 But, there's

01:05:16.540 going to be an

01:05:16.960 argument against

01:05:17.740 every AI.

01:05:19.680 You know, pretty

01:05:20.080 soon people are

01:05:20.800 going to say, oh,

01:05:21.380 this AI is biased.

01:05:23.680 It's misinformation.

01:05:25.820 So, you've got to

01:05:26.300 shut it down.

01:05:27.420 The pressure

01:05:28.160 against AI is

01:05:29.080 going to be just

01:05:30.140 through the roof.

01:05:32.100 Anyway, we'll see

01:05:33.080 if OpenAI wins

01:05:34.640 that.

01:05:35.360 There's a robot

01:05:36.400 factory being

01:05:37.440 built.

01:05:38.060 Interesting

01:05:38.460 engineers reporting

01:05:39.660 that.

01:05:40.000 So, there's

01:05:41.780 a U.S.

01:05:42.320 firm called

01:05:42.820 Figure that's

01:05:44.880 a robot

01:05:45.480 company, and

01:05:47.060 they're going to

01:05:47.440 build their

01:05:47.800 factory to

01:05:48.900 make 12,000

01:05:49.940 humanoid robots

01:05:51.080 per year, and

01:05:52.820 that's a

01:05:53.300 California-based

01:05:54.120 company.

01:05:55.680 But, they're

01:05:55.980 not putting

01:05:56.380 the, are

01:05:57.180 they putting

01:05:57.560 the, I

01:06:00.200 didn't see

01:06:00.580 that, but

01:06:01.080 they couldn't

01:06:02.400 possibly putting

01:06:03.300 the manufacturing

01:06:04.200 in California,

01:06:05.640 right?

01:06:06.780 It doesn't say

01:06:07.620 where the

01:06:07.940 manufacturing would

01:06:08.780 be, but

01:06:10.060 I'd be

01:06:10.540 amazed if

01:06:11.420 somebody built

01:06:12.020 manufacturing in

01:06:13.060 California.

01:06:14.680 That feels like

01:06:15.820 an unnecessary

01:06:16.560 risk.

01:06:17.880 So, it's a

01:06:18.280 California-based

01:06:18.920 company, but

01:06:19.700 I don't see

01:06:20.660 here where they

01:06:21.300 would put the

01:06:21.800 factory.

01:06:23.240 Anyway, I

01:06:24.040 wouldn't put it

01:06:24.460 in California.

01:06:27.420 Anyway, I

01:06:28.080 told you the

01:06:28.540 story about the

01:06:29.420 South African

01:06:31.340 scientists.

01:06:33.140 They're trapped

01:06:33.600 in a tiny

01:06:34.200 base in

01:06:34.660 Antarctica, and

01:06:36.580 apparently, because

01:06:38.020 of the extreme

01:06:39.020 weather, there

01:06:40.260 could be

01:06:40.880 months, up

01:06:42.300 to 10

01:06:42.680 months, before

01:06:43.620 the weather

01:06:44.100 would be good

01:06:44.640 enough for

01:06:45.060 anybody to

01:06:45.680 leave or

01:06:46.540 arrive.

01:06:48.180 And, they're

01:06:48.580 complaining because

01:06:49.560 there's one

01:06:51.340 researcher in

01:06:52.400 that group,

01:06:53.440 according to

01:06:53.860 the Daily

01:06:54.240 Mail, who

01:06:56.100 has been

01:06:56.740 threatening to

01:06:58.520 kill them and 0.96

01:06:59.620 sexually abuse

01:07:02.860 somebody.

01:07:03.320 they've got

01:07:05.140 basically some

01:07:06.200 kind of a

01:07:06.780 sexual criminal 0.53

01:07:07.800 who's threatening

01:07:08.600 to kill

01:07:09.060 people, and

01:07:10.040 they're trapped

01:07:10.580 in this little

01:07:11.240 building for

01:07:14.460 at least 10

01:07:15.020 more months,

01:07:15.700 and they're

01:07:15.980 sort of begging

01:07:16.820 for relief.

01:07:18.360 Now, I know

01:07:18.880 what you're

01:07:19.140 thinking.

01:07:19.860 I know what

01:07:20.680 you're thinking.

01:07:21.880 You're thinking,

01:07:23.020 can Elon Musk

01:07:24.340 rescue them,

01:07:25.540 right?

01:07:26.780 Well, he can't

01:07:27.780 do everything.

01:07:28.560 I don't think

01:07:29.880 he could land

01:07:30.480 a starship

01:07:31.520 there, but

01:07:32.140 it wouldn't

01:07:33.320 surprise me if

01:07:34.040 the boring

01:07:34.560 company is

01:07:35.160 already drilling

01:07:35.860 a hole from

01:07:36.520 America to

01:07:37.240 Antarctica to

01:07:38.000 get him out.

01:07:39.420 It wouldn't

01:07:40.080 surprise me.

01:07:40.780 I just don't

01:07:41.340 think it's

01:07:41.680 happening.

01:07:42.940 So, no,

01:07:43.620 Elon Musk

01:07:44.220 can't rescue

01:07:45.020 everybody.

01:07:46.640 Sometimes they're

01:07:47.360 going to have

01:07:47.600 to rescue

01:07:47.960 themselves.

01:07:49.020 Let's talk

01:07:49.640 about the

01:07:50.000 Hooties.

01:07:51.880 As you know,

01:07:52.680 the Hooties

01:07:53.200 were threatening

01:07:54.560 and have for

01:07:55.960 a long time

01:07:56.460 been threatening

01:07:57.140 shipping in

01:07:57.940 the Red

01:07:58.220 Sea.

01:07:59.100 Apparently,

01:07:59.780 I didn't

01:08:00.140 realize this,

01:08:00.840 but nearly

01:08:01.400 all the

01:08:02.100 shipping,

01:08:03.180 at least our

01:08:03.840 shipping,

01:08:04.760 and other

01:08:06.000 countries too,

01:08:07.080 nearly all of

01:08:07.800 it has been

01:08:08.460 avoiding the

01:08:09.000 Red Sea because

01:08:10.280 it's too

01:08:10.620 dangerous because

01:08:11.300 of the Hooties.

01:08:12.540 And they've

01:08:13.640 been going the

01:08:14.100 long way,

01:08:14.640 which is making

01:08:15.240 everything cost

01:08:16.760 a lot more and

01:08:17.620 take a lot

01:08:18.540 longer.

01:08:19.680 So, Trump

01:08:20.400 has decided

01:08:21.460 that this Iran 0.71

01:08:22.640 backed Hooties 0.99

01:08:23.520 that keep shooting

01:08:24.640 at the shipping

01:08:25.480 in the Red Sea,

01:08:26.800 their time has

01:08:27.720 come.

01:08:29.020 And National

01:08:29.740 Security Advisor

01:08:30.580 Mike Waltz,

01:08:31.600 he confirmed

01:08:32.360 that the U.S.

01:08:33.340 is making big

01:08:34.620 airstrikes and

01:08:35.580 took out multiple

01:08:36.460 Hootie leaders.

01:08:38.340 Now, taking out

01:08:39.300 their leaders, I

01:08:39.980 don't think it's

01:08:40.540 going to work

01:08:41.080 because they just

01:08:41.900 get new leaders.

01:08:43.680 And nearly

01:08:45.960 three-quarters of

01:08:46.940 shipping is now

01:08:47.660 diverted to get

01:08:49.920 out of that area.

01:08:51.120 Three-quarters.

01:08:52.700 And it's way

01:08:53.760 more expensive

01:08:54.440 if they have

01:08:55.000 to go around

01:08:55.620 the hard

01:08:56.280 way.

01:08:59.760 And then

01:09:00.400 Mike

01:09:00.740 Hegseth,

01:09:02.120 he said that

01:09:03.720 there's a

01:09:05.200 large-scale

01:09:05.840 strike campaign

01:09:06.880 going on

01:09:07.460 against the Hooties 0.98

01:09:08.220 and that it

01:09:09.200 will continue

01:09:09.780 and be,

01:09:10.640 quote,

01:09:10.780 unrelenting

01:09:11.500 until they

01:09:13.520 pledge to

01:09:14.980 back off

01:09:15.680 attacking U.S.

01:09:20.280 assets.

01:09:21.520 Now, here

01:09:22.740 again, you have

01:09:23.380 that problem

01:09:23.980 of what if

01:09:25.300 they do

01:09:25.620 promise it?

01:09:28.320 Would the

01:09:29.080 shipping return

01:09:30.000 just because

01:09:30.520 the Hooties

01:09:30.940 said, oh,

01:09:31.500 yeah, we'll

01:09:31.980 totally leave

01:09:32.760 your shipping

01:09:33.280 alone?

01:09:34.680 Because the

01:09:35.700 real problem

01:09:36.160 is the

01:09:36.500 insurance.

01:09:38.500 You would

01:09:39.160 have to get

01:09:39.680 the risk

01:09:40.340 down to

01:09:40.940 zero.

01:09:42.580 How could

01:09:43.280 you ever

01:09:43.600 get the

01:09:43.960 risk down

01:09:44.420 to zero?

01:09:45.800 Because even

01:09:46.680 if, like,

01:09:47.380 one in

01:09:47.980 20 ships

01:09:49.340 get attacked, 0.55

01:09:50.820 how are

01:09:51.480 any of them

01:09:52.080 going to get

01:09:52.500 insurance?

01:09:53.980 And they

01:09:54.340 need

01:09:54.580 insurance.

01:09:56.120 So you

01:09:58.080 can't half-ass 0.71

01:09:59.740 this thing.

01:10:01.120 You have to

01:10:02.120 completely destroy

01:10:03.540 the Hooties' 0.67

01:10:04.420 ability to do

01:10:05.220 it or

01:10:06.200 completely destroy

01:10:07.380 whoever is

01:10:08.860 funding them,

01:10:09.880 Iran in this 0.71

01:10:10.600 case.

01:10:11.640 You have to

01:10:12.520 get them to

01:10:13.280 change their

01:10:13.740 mind.

01:10:14.940 But even if

01:10:15.520 they change

01:10:16.000 their mind,

01:10:16.540 they could

01:10:16.880 change it

01:10:17.640 back.

01:10:18.800 You know,

01:10:18.960 it's the same

01:10:19.400 problem.

01:10:20.280 If they

01:10:20.620 promised,

01:10:21.620 oh, we

01:10:22.740 promise,

01:10:23.320 yeah, we

01:10:24.900 won't attack

01:10:25.740 your ships.

01:10:27.460 And then

01:10:28.140 a few ships

01:10:29.960 come back.

01:10:30.620 They only

01:10:31.020 have to

01:10:31.380 attack one. 0.72

01:10:32.920 And then

01:10:33.280 the whole

01:10:33.640 thing falls

01:10:34.200 apart.

01:10:35.700 So how

01:10:38.800 much do

01:10:39.380 you have to

01:10:39.920 kill before

01:10:41.960 you can

01:10:42.540 guarantee that

01:10:43.480 it will be

01:10:44.260 economical for

01:10:45.260 ships to

01:10:45.800 use that

01:10:46.220 place again?

01:10:46.820 like you

01:10:48.400 either have

01:10:48.880 to wipe

01:10:49.300 out everything

01:10:50.660 in that

01:10:51.120 area,

01:10:52.520 man,

01:10:53.000 woman, 1.00

01:10:53.300 and child.

01:10:54.240 I'm not

01:10:54.860 recommending

01:10:55.360 that.

01:10:55.860 I'm just

01:10:56.120 saying if

01:10:57.000 you wanted

01:10:57.300 to fix

01:10:57.760 it,

01:10:58.440 you would

01:10:59.120 have to

01:10:59.400 actually just

01:11:00.020 depopulate

01:11:00.740 the place

01:11:01.300 because they're

01:11:02.900 they don't

01:11:04.560 seem to be

01:11:05.400 afraid of

01:11:06.000 anything.

01:11:06.720 And there

01:11:07.340 always seems

01:11:07.800 to be a

01:11:08.180 replacement

01:11:08.640 willing to

01:11:09.260 take over.

01:11:10.200 And there's

01:11:10.840 always going to

01:11:11.220 be a new

01:11:11.600 leader and

01:11:12.660 Iran will 1.00

01:11:13.240 still be

01:11:13.720 funding them.

01:11:14.260 So anything

01:11:16.860 short of a

01:11:19.260 kind of

01:11:19.620 brutality that

01:11:20.600 we've never

01:11:21.100 seen before

01:11:21.920 couldn't

01:11:23.160 possibly make

01:11:23.840 a difference.

01:11:25.160 So we'll

01:11:26.240 see if this

01:11:27.160 gets us

01:11:27.580 anything.

01:11:29.480 I'm highly

01:11:30.520 skeptical that

01:11:31.440 it can be

01:11:32.120 solved without

01:11:33.060 doing something

01:11:34.480 that would be

01:11:35.660 so unconscionable

01:11:37.040 to American

01:11:38.060 minds that

01:11:40.160 doing it

01:11:40.720 would be

01:11:41.020 going too

01:11:41.520 far.

01:11:41.860 I don't

01:11:44.200 know.

01:11:45.340 You know,

01:11:45.640 if the

01:11:46.340 real lever

01:11:46.860 is Iran,

01:11:48.540 then maybe

01:11:49.000 there's

01:11:49.800 something to

01:11:50.260 work with.

01:11:51.960 But I

01:11:52.700 don't know.

01:11:53.600 You have to

01:11:54.220 get the

01:11:54.520 risk down

01:11:55.040 to zero

01:11:55.540 or it

01:11:56.480 just doesn't

01:11:56.920 even matter.

01:11:57.940 You know,

01:11:58.300 if the

01:11:58.880 risk is

01:11:59.340 5%,

01:12:00.160 you know,

01:12:01.040 down from

01:12:01.500 100%

01:12:02.220 getting attacked

01:12:03.100 down to

01:12:03.500 5%,

01:12:04.120 I don't

01:12:05.220 think that

01:12:05.640 changes the

01:12:06.320 insurance

01:12:06.720 situation at

01:12:07.480 all.

01:12:08.360 Because 5% 1.00

01:12:10.220 is way

01:12:10.820 too much

01:12:11.380 of a

01:12:11.640 risk.

01:12:12.040 Way too

01:12:12.380 much.

01:12:12.720 It's not

01:12:12.960 even close.

01:12:14.380 So we'll

01:12:15.120 see.

01:12:15.760 Anyway,

01:12:16.140 that's what I

01:12:16.540 got for you

01:12:16.940 today.

01:12:18.080 I'm going to

01:12:18.760 say a few

01:12:19.420 words privately
