Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2856 CWSA 06⧸01⧸25

00:00:00.000 good morning everybody let's see if we can get this show rolling

00:00:04.880 i'll get this i got it

00:00:13.200 there we go

00:00:30.000 good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization it's called

00:00:39.600 coffee with scott adams and you've never had a better time but if you'd like to take this

00:00:45.040 experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny shiny human brains

00:00:51.600 all you need for that is a copper mugger glass a tank of chalice to sign a canteen sugar flask

00:01:00.160 a vessel of any kind i'm slurring my i'm slurring my voice am i not

00:01:08.720 yeah there's definitely something wrong with my mouth but uh anyway join me now for the unparalleled

00:01:14.800 pleasure of the dopamine today thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous

00:01:19.440 sip and it happens now go

00:01:31.040 all right well apparently in austin there are already uh driverless teslas

00:01:41.040 so if you're uh if you walk around in austin you're gonna see these driverless cars go by

00:01:48.080 not only are there driverless cars now which is really good if you don't like people but

00:01:55.200 mit has developed a ping pong playing robot which is better than all the other ping pong playing

00:02:03.360 robots i guess because we've done this before but i'm trying to think of a future life where i i get an

00:02:12.480 uber but there's no uber driver so i don't have to worry about a person and then i take it to my

00:02:20.160 local ping pong emporium and i i play with the robot

00:02:24.720 and then i take my self-driving auto cab home i can avoid people completely

00:02:34.880 that's a that's a good world well as you know the new york times did a big piece alleging that elon

00:02:44.480 musk is taking all kinds of drugs um they say it was on ketamine and ecstasy and mushrooms and um

00:02:54.480 elon musk says nope he's not any drugs at all it's fake news and he was randomly tested for three years

00:03:03.440 after he had one one puff of uh weed on the joe rogan show so nope he's uh he's telling us quite

00:03:14.960 clearly that he is not on any kinds of drugs and i think they do keep testing him because of spacex

00:03:22.720 he did say he tried prescription ketamine a few years ago and uh but that wasn't you know that wasn't illegal so

00:03:36.400 um here is something exciting in interesting engineering um i keep telling you that the most

00:03:44.960 um the most exciting technology would be holes you know like the boring company can make a tunnel

00:03:53.040 big hole but if you could go straight down and you could go far enough you could you could get into

00:04:00.880 all that geothermal and apparently there's a new technology that looks like it can do that

00:04:08.560 and it's a company called quaze energy and what do they do they uh they have a novel drilling method

00:04:19.120 they use a gyrotron you know which is how i'd do it it's a device that generates a powerful high

00:04:28.000 frequency millimeter wave and these waves are so intense that they can literally vaporize rock

00:04:36.560 functioning like a microwave on steroids to board deep into the earth

00:04:41.120 well if that works um the energy situation on earth is really going to change because presumably

00:04:53.920 if they can make one drill they can do that they can make lots of drills that can do that

00:04:59.760 so imagine having unlimited free energy free meaning you know it might cost you 20 to 40 million dollars

00:05:09.520 to drill the hole but once you did it would be free energy for just about ever

00:05:16.320 well paris is uh probably on fire still because

00:05:23.120 the uh french soccer team won a big victory uh the uh what team is it the paris saint germans psg

00:05:34.240 i watched that uh match oh my goodness that was fun that was such a good match um it was four nothing or five nothing but it was incredible

00:05:49.120 and what do you do when your team wins well apparently if you've got a big immigrant um population

00:05:56.640 uh and and uh people have nothing else to do they burn their own city so don't go to paris when paris is

00:06:07.440 winning jp morgan chase's uh ceo jamie diamond he was at the uh reagan national economic forum

00:06:18.720 and when somebody asked him about uh stockpiling bitcoin he said we shouldn't be stockpiling bitcoin

00:06:28.800 uh the the us government should be stockpiling guns ammunition and drones

00:06:36.240 uh does jamie diamond know something we don't know well he does know that if we ever got into a

00:06:44.400 a real missile fight with you know a major enemy we would be out of missiles in about

00:06:52.160 what a week so he does know that our military industrial complex has not been doing the job or

00:07:01.040 maybe we gave too much of it to ukraine or something but we don't really have enough stuff

00:07:08.880 to have a proper war part of me thinks that's good news because if we had if we had all the weapons we

00:07:16.640 needed and all the ammunition we needed don't you think we'd be a little bit more likely to want to

00:07:23.280 start a war i like the fact that we don't anyway um and diamond also says we should be stockpiling rare earth

00:07:35.440 if we could get it um he also doesn't like immigration so jamie diamond said uh immigration

00:07:44.000 what the hell were we doing the bottom 20 of our population their wages didn't go up for 20 years

00:07:52.080 they're dying seven years younger their schools don't work america's americans are getting sick of it

00:07:57.920 and then he blames uh democrats for all of their what he calls the blue tape instead of the red tape

00:08:06.240 because he says the democrats are the ones that like all the regulations that kill business

00:08:11.520 so he's uh pretty close to a pretty close to a republican but not there yet we'll keep watching

00:08:26.160 well uh joe rogan had uh rock star bono on his show and bono thinks that the uh funding cuts to usa id

00:08:38.720 have already killed 300 000 people how many of you think that the funding cuts to usa id have killed 300 000 people

00:08:55.040 i hope not but you know that sounds a little bit ridiculous i'm not even going to fact check that

00:09:03.520 but uh rogan tried to crack them and tell them that usa id was a more of a money laundering operation than

00:09:13.040 anything else um and said that billions of dollars are missing and that uh elon musk said if any if any of

00:09:22.720 this had been done by a public company the company would be delisted and the executives would be in jail

00:09:30.160 and then musk called bono a retard 0.89

00:09:36.480 and apparently uh retard is now just an acceptable word not with everybody of course

00:09:47.600 well pbs according to the ap pbs is going to sue the trump administration over their defunding

00:09:57.600 same as npr now how in the world can people always find a reason to sue you would think that sometimes 0.65

00:10:08.720 it would just be shit they don't like but there wouldn't be anything you could sue over so apparently 0.66

00:10:15.040 the lawsuit relies on the argument that they're being defunded because their opinions because they're 0.98

00:10:23.040 a little bit too liberal now does the government need a reason so what if that is the reason

00:10:34.720 who cares so anyway i'm just amazed that you can sue over anything you know there should be a whole

00:10:44.320 different kind of government where there's like a court that follows the president around

00:10:50.800 and as soon as the president signs an executive order the court says well anybody's suing us all

00:10:57.840 right you are you are you are all right we'll make a judgment now uh we're gonna override you

00:11:03.680 but holy cow how could it be true that everybody can sue everybody about everything in the government

00:11:14.080 anyway anyway don't don't you wonder what the legal budget is for the government

00:11:21.520 how much do you think the trump administration spends on lawyers

00:11:26.400 it's gotta be a billion like maybe a billion dollars just on lawsuits i mean it's gonna be a

00:11:38.080 crazy number i don't know claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament i've been visualizing my

00:11:43.680 match all week she was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her

00:11:49.200 backhand side good thing claudia's with intact the insurer with the largest network of auto service

00:11:55.440 centers in the country everything was taken care of under one roof and she was on her way in a rental

00:12:00.160 car in no time i made it to my tournament and lost in the first round but you got there on time intact

00:12:06.960 insurance your auto service ace certain conditions apply well allegedly there's uh according to news max

00:12:15.280 there might be some kind of geostorm today the sun might have some kind of weird effect that could

00:12:24.080 affect our our electronics how many times have we heard that i i can't tell you how many times i've

00:12:33.200 heard that the sun is exploding and your your internet's going to go out but it seems like it never does

00:12:42.000 am i jinxing it are we really bad at predicting sunspots and what they will do i'm not going to worry about

00:12:52.000 that one well trump has uh done the most trumpian thing i've ever heard in my life you know how trump

00:13:03.120 likes the show you know it doesn't matter if it's technically accurate sometimes he likes to put on a

00:13:12.560 show and apparently he truthed so he sent out a message on truth that joe biden was murdered in 2020

00:13:23.600 and replaced with a clone that has different eye color

00:13:30.240 and he really did that that's a real thing that happened in the real world

00:13:36.960 now if it were monday and probably it'll happen monday uh the democrats will go crazy it's like my god

00:13:46.240 now he's spreading the rumor that joe biden's a clone and i'm thinking to myself there were a lot

00:13:53.680 of uh republicans who thought joe biden was a clone there's there's at least one joe biden that was too

00:14:00.400 tall and we all saw that one but that was just uh probably just a body double but do you think there's a

00:14:09.120 joe biden clone with a different eye color how many of you think that joe biden died and he's he's now

00:14:20.400 a clone well the best argument against it is why would you build a clone that was also incompetent

00:14:30.880 if you wanted to clone him you'd clone him with somebody who could walk and talk you wouldn't clone

00:14:37.600 him with somebody who's just as deeply deeply cognitively impaired as the original 0.81

00:14:44.640 so i'm going to say no on that but it's funny that trump would post that um there's a secret

00:14:51.440 service whistleblower according to senator josh hawley who was saying uh this is in the new york post

00:15:01.600 uh and the secret service whistleblower claims that former president biden was so out of it

00:15:08.560 at the white house that he would quote get lost in his closet

00:15:15.520 now i i think i may have predicted some time ago that the stories about biden would start out being a

00:15:23.920 little bit mild and then they would just get worse and worse and worse until you until you

00:15:30.000 just couldn't even believe it well here it comes here it comes he would get lost in his own closet

00:15:39.600 okay you want some more apparently uh journalist olivia musy um was going to have a show on bloomberg

00:15:50.000 but her show got cancelled at the last minute because she wrote an article questioning biden's health

00:15:56.640 and suggesting there was a cover-up and her show got cancelled she got punished

00:16:04.320 so the daily mail is writing about that so allegedly bloomberg literally punished her

00:16:12.640 for having an accurate story about biden now do you understand why nobody can talk about it

00:16:19.840 it's because the democrats would punish you if he talked about it anyway is the same thing happening on

00:16:27.440 the republican side if uh if someone had some damning story about trump would that get your shows all

00:16:36.240 cancelled and maybe i don't know but uh that's pretty bad and then uh byron donald on fox news is talking

00:16:47.520 about the fact that uh i think there might be some resistance as congress is trying to get uh biden's

00:16:56.240 doctor to testify he says we need to issue subpoenas immediately for the white house doctor under joe biden

00:17:05.680 and for some of his key staffers

00:17:07.600 uh now how much do you think we'll find out if his doctor actually testifies in congress

00:17:18.640 do you think the doctor will tell the full truth and nothing but the truth

00:17:25.280 or is it possible that the doctor will weasel things like well i didn't see any problems when i

00:17:33.280 talk to him uh blah blah blah blah blah i feel like it'll be more like that because the doctor has to

00:17:41.040 protect his own reputation

00:17:45.200 meanwhile there was an mit class president giving a speech at graduation um and ended up getting real

00:17:53.920 political and said quote we're watching israel try to wipe out uh white palestine off the face of the

00:18:01.600 earth and it's a shame that mit is part of it and i guess uh people walked out and it became a big deal

00:18:09.360 um she submitted a fake speech that was approved before she read her real speech

00:18:18.320 which is a trick i hear that sometimes people do submit a fake speech before they read the real one

00:18:26.240 um anyway um here's the weirdest headline uh apparently china considers harvard a party school

00:18:43.440 isn't that funny that the harvard is the top party school for the chinese now i don't have much to say

00:18:50.880 about that but usually in california when we're talking about the top party school there's something

00:18:56.880 like chico state it's not the it's not the one of the top ivy leagues but it's kind of insulting

00:19:07.520 oh your best college we call it a party school really is it that easy for you um

00:19:16.240 um yeah the top party school outside of china is that real how many of you think that the chinese

00:19:27.600 actually think of harvard as a top party school does that seem likely i'm gonna say maybe not maybe not

00:19:40.080 well according to redfin they uh help you sell your house there are nearly half a million more

00:19:50.560 people selling homes and buying them right now and the six of the top 10 buyers markets are in florida

00:19:58.960 so i guess all those people who moved to florida during the pandemic have decided that a few years of

00:20:07.680 uh humidity and they're like i'm out of here how many of you could handle the humidity in florida

00:20:18.160 if you spent time there you know what i'm talking about like in california we basically don't have

00:20:24.800 humidity you know it could be super hot you don't want to go into it but we don't really have humidity

00:20:31.760 but florida oh my god it's hard to walk just to the car so i think a lot of people said to

00:20:40.320 themselves hey i like all this freedom and republicanism so i'll move to florida and then

00:20:47.600 they found out that half of the year you want to kill yourself and when you walk outside anyway

00:22:00.480 increasing the steel tariffs from 25 to 50 and um has it been blocked by an activist judge yet

00:22:11.840 i'm completely lost so we've got hundreds of countries and then when within each country there are dozens

00:22:25.520 of key products and then we've had different uh proposed tariffs on each of them which first were high and

00:22:36.560 maybe they got pulled back but they got delayed so every time i read a story like this like steel tariffs

00:22:44.960 go from this to that i don't know what is real has it already been blocked by a activist judge and if it's

00:22:54.960 been blocked by the activist judge has the supreme court already overruled it or will it it's impossible

00:23:04.000 to just follow the story about what's happening with uh with tariffs so i feel like that's good for the stock

00:23:12.320 market because the stock market can't be sure it's bad because nobody knows what it is it's just sort of

00:23:22.720 confusing and then it gets boring if it's boring and confusing then the market can adjust to it

00:23:31.520 so maybe maybe that's what's happening well according to cnn the latest inflation numbers are almost

00:23:41.520 exactly where the fed would want them 2.1 percent the fed would like it to be two percent and that's a seven

00:23:48.720 month low and it's basically like i said right where the fed would want it now that's cnn

00:23:56.240 so so far employment looks good and then i think there was also oh the next story is uh according to

00:24:08.240 the daily wire and nbc personal incomes increased by 0.8 percent in april well ahead of the forecasted 0.3

00:24:18.720 cnbc is talking about that so employment looks pretty good the stock market looks pretty good

00:24:28.160 inflation looks pretty good energy prices are coming down

00:24:33.680 and personal incomes have risen more than we thought at the same time that we're in the middle of this

00:24:46.240 this tariff chaos how could any of this be how could any of this be true you know even i thought

00:24:56.880 that the tariff stuff would at least temporarily knock things down and might still you know because

00:25:02.480 the tariffs are still a little bit more in our future than in our past

00:25:06.480 but uh things sure are going well for all that chaos anyway uh larry fink of blackrock

00:25:21.120 he says the next big thing in financial assets are that all of your financial assets will be tokenized

00:25:29.120 that means every stock every bond every financial instrument will be on one general ledger

00:25:35.360 now tokenized means something like a crypto or a bitcoin so that everybody would have public access

00:25:45.280 to look at the ledger i guess you know much like big one now does that make sense

00:25:54.800 it seems like you would uh maybe make banks unnecessary or something

00:26:00.240 you know once you had all your ledger and all your money was in some kind of public

00:26:08.320 thing that everybody could see and everybody would have access to doesn't that mean that anybody could

00:26:14.800 lend money and anybody could borrow it and you could charge interest to anybody you wanted and i feel like banks

00:26:23.360 the only thing that's keeping banks in business is that they have lobbyists you know it seems like the

00:26:32.080 technology has already gotten to the point where a traditional bank doesn't make any sense at all

00:26:37.280 i mean think about the fact that you have more than one checking account

00:26:44.560 where you've got one savings account and one checking account wouldn't it make more sense

00:26:51.920 if when you have more when you have money in the bank they pay your interest and when you borrow from

00:26:58.080 them you pay them interest it just seems like there's a way easier way to do banking

00:27:03.680 so anyway um yeah i told you that the claims about biden are just going to get worse and worse

00:27:12.640 here's another one so jake tapper as you know has his book out original sin and his new claim is that uh

00:27:22.960 i think he said this on bill marshall that biden's mental deterioration led to the crisis at the border

00:27:30.240 um and tapper said you're complimenting it by calling it a policy meaning that he didn't really have a border

00:27:38.720 policy um and he said he said that senator bennett from colorado went to an event in 2024 where biden

00:27:49.200 seemed non-functioning he left the event thinking this is why our border policy our immigration policy was

00:27:56.880 such a mess so do you remember thinking as i did so you probably had the same thought what is wrong with

00:28:05.360 biden like why can't he close the border is it really just incompetence and it turns out according to

00:28:16.480 jake tapper and according to senator bennett it was literally incompetence

00:28:22.080 incompetence it was actual incompetence now there were of course lots of people who wanted the border

00:28:29.040 open but biden wasn't one of them biden wasn't an open border guy but they still slipped it past the

00:28:37.520 keeper and got their open border because he wasn't capable enough to stop him i'm not even sure he knew

00:28:44.560 what was going on so that's i think that's the most brutal thing that we've seen uh because it's such a

00:28:52.480 direct claim that that the monstrous problem we had with immigration was literally caused by biden's brain

00:29:01.840 not being functional and by our news people not calling it out and by democrats lying about it

00:29:10.560 so every time you think this is going to go away it just gets worse and this this might go on for a while

00:29:21.920 so uh if you're like me you're watching the democrats try to learn and they're trying to learn

00:29:29.600 what was it we did wrong last time that cost us you know losing everything and it seems like the things

00:29:37.520 they're trying to learn are from two books one the jake tapper book with alex thompson original sin

00:29:45.280 and that basically says that biden was incapable and uh it was known to the insiders and then there's the

00:29:57.520 ezra klein book i forget his co-worker or his co-writer uh called abundance

00:30:04.720 abundance now abundance is basically we got to get rid of all these regulations and obstacles to

00:30:11.840 building anything because we can't build anything in this country because there's too many too much

00:30:17.120 blue tape as jamie diamond would say so in summary if you take these two books together the original sin

00:30:27.040 and the abundance book the thing that the democrats have learned is don't run incapable candidates with

00:30:35.360 terrible policies yes that would really help you don't do terrible policies managed by incapable leaders

00:30:48.720 that's pretty much the whole thing it you know the their backup plan to biden was kamala harris

00:30:57.040 i mean they weren't even trying to have capable people and they didn't even seem to be trying

00:31:05.840 to have policies that would make sense like closing the border and you know i could go on but that's

00:31:13.760 that's as far as they've gotten

00:31:15.120 um and then uh alex thompson the uh co-writer with uh jake tapper he was on a uh he was on a podcast

00:31:27.280 where megan mccardle who writes for the washington post um

00:31:35.040 asked how lazy media can avoid running cover for democratic presidents in the future

00:31:42.000 given its bias now that's pretty good question from the washington post so so uh megan mccardle is

00:31:50.720 acknowledging that the mainstream media is left-leaning and she's saying how could we avoid

00:31:59.280 you know running cover for democrat presidents in the future like they did with biden and alex thompson said

00:32:06.560 uh uh uh i wish i had uh good answers um you know maybe like one of the answers is you know

00:32:18.320 you know uh get on dc more and like you know touch the grass

00:32:25.440 so in other words there's nothing that's going to change and the democrats are going to run cover for

00:32:33.360 terrible leaders on the democrat side and it's just going to reproduce so they they'll have more

00:32:41.760 terrible leaders that they'll tell us are excellent until they've left the office and then they'll say

00:32:48.400 uh let me write a book about how bad they really were meanwhile tim waltz um he's got some of the worst 0.98

00:32:58.960 advice i like him because he's so pathetic his advice is that democrats should be a little meaner 0.94

00:33:10.480 they should be meaner and go scorched earth against trump and he says uh the president is a wannabe dictator 0.98

00:33:20.000 now does that ring does that ring true is that what they needed

00:33:25.200 they got two books telling them exactly what they need what they need is good leaders not mentally

00:33:34.720 incapable ones and good policies what does tim waltz say we need to be meaner

00:33:43.680 that's the worst advice i've ever heard we need to be meaner because he's going to be a dictator

00:33:51.360 oh my god they're so lost meanwhile in a new poll um by let's see breitbart was writing about this

00:34:01.840 atlas intel poll um it said that pete budigieg got over 30 percent of democrat voters

00:34:10.880 uh for 2028 presidential election what do you think about that do you think it's his beard

00:34:21.360 as soon as pete budigieg grew a beard his popularity doubled did anything else change

00:34:30.800 i'm not aware of anything else that changed he just grew a beard and i was looking at the beard and

00:34:37.120 i thought well it's not the best beard but it's sort of manly it's sort of jd vance like

00:34:44.320 uh maybe that's all it was maybe he just needed a beard ironically anyway

00:34:58.320 bank more encores when you switch to a scotia bank banking package

00:35:02.880 learn more at scotia bank.com slash banking packages conditions apply scotia bank you're

00:35:09.040 richer than you think uh joy reed announced that she's launching her own tv show on youtube

00:35:17.200 and uh why is she putting her own show on youtube well in her words people want trusted voices 0.99

00:35:28.080 is she a trusted voice joy reed i wonder if she actually thinks that about herself

00:35:35.760 or is that just something she says because it sounds good i don't know

00:35:42.320 anyway uh the ex uh white house spokesperson jen saki um her show on msnbc is tanking in the ratings 0.87

00:35:55.360 um so i guess that just went right to hell

00:35:58.080 well so her ratings have plunged according to headline usa to humiliating new lows well i don't

00:36:07.200 know where humiliating is but and uh she's bleeding viewers just one week after moving 1.00

00:36:15.600 to the coveted pm slot formerly held by rachel maddow so msnbc is falling apart

00:36:24.720 how many of you saw the video today of cory booker doing exactly the same salute

00:36:35.040 that uh elon musk was accused of doing um as a nazi

00:36:42.160 so i won't do the whole salute but it's where he touches his heart and then he extends his hand

00:36:48.000 and we went through weeks and weeks of well obviously that's a nazi salute and then cory

00:36:55.920 booker does it and uh matt von swall it gave gave us a list on x of all the entities that did not cover

00:37:05.600 it as news now don't you think that'd be news if cory booker did a nazi salute identical to the one

00:37:14.640 that there sure was a nazi salute from elon musk because they're sure it's a nazi salute they're not

00:37:22.720 doubting that at all so here are the entities that did not talk about it new york times cnn

00:37:30.160 washington post msnbc npr usa today reuters axios abc news and every one of those made a pretty big

00:37:39.120 deal about it when it was elon musk i'll tell you if you ever believed that elon musk gave a nazi salute 1.00

00:37:49.040 you're an idiot you're just an idiot there's no way that any smart person could believe that 1.00

00:37:56.560 that happened in the real world anyway summer vacation time and apparently we're getting fewer 1.00

00:38:05.360 the u.s is getting fewer uh tourists from canada uk germany france and the netherlands

00:38:14.320 uh to which i say i wonder if that means that the hotels will be empty

00:38:22.960 or will people just be coming from other places and i also wonder how long that's going to last

00:38:30.480 because that feels like sort of a one year situation doesn't it like like it doesn't feel like

00:38:39.040 canada will now permanently not travel to the united states i think it's just the headlines

00:38:46.240 and as soon as we get some kind of tariff thing worked out it'll be back to where it was

00:38:51.920 well the ceo of ai company anthropic warns that ai could wipe out half of uh white collar jobs entry

00:39:06.480 level white cover jobs in five years post-millennial is talking about this and he says that most of them

00:39:13.760 are unaware this is about to happen but isn't the real question how many jobs ai will create

00:39:22.480 is there really nobody who's creating jobs with ai nowhere you know i i get that programmers are

00:39:32.560 more efficient and blah blah blah blah but it seems to me that if you took an ordinary person who has a

00:39:40.880 certain set of skills and then you gave them ai couldn't they just immediately jump into jobs that they

00:39:50.800 were otherwise not capable of doing there must be something that creates jobs where there were no jobs

00:40:00.960 so i don't know the answer to that but i think that's our our only hope is that it creates more jobs than it

00:40:09.840 takes tulsi gabbard was on fox head of the dni and she said that china has made it very clear that they don't want war

00:40:21.840 um and you know we've made it clear we don't want war now i definitely believe that about china

00:40:30.000 because the only thing that could just totally destroy china would be a war and same with the us

00:40:37.680 the only thing that could sort of totally destroy us would be a war so it'd be the dumbest thing we ever

00:40:42.960 did especially with each other but china doesn't need a war china can just keep growing its economy

00:40:55.520 until it dominates everything which is a way smarter way to take over the world so uh no i don't think

00:41:03.920 china wants war i think they want to be capable of war just in case anybody takes a run at them but 0.97

00:41:11.840 no i think that's the last thing they want uh speaking of china according to john hayward breitbart news

00:41:20.560 there's a eu report the finds that china is behind 80 of russia's sanctions avoidance now didn't we

00:41:29.520 already know that didn't you assume that china was the one who was buying um mostly energy i assume from 0.82

00:41:39.280 russia and uh so those two are sort of attached at the hip and doesn't that mean that russia is basically

00:41:48.640 china's because if china is buying 80 of their oil uh or probably their gas plus oil does that mean that

00:41:59.600 china essentially controls russia now because the the whole reason we didn't like the uh the russian 0.92

00:42:09.440 pipeline that got blown up is that we didn't want uh europe to be dependent on you know mainly one

00:42:17.840 source of of energy but it works the other way too if you're the customer if you're buying 80 of the

00:42:26.080 energy from russia and energy is their main export uh doesn't that really mean china can make them do

00:42:36.400 just about anything they want

00:42:37.760 it seems that way to me so i don't think that uh i don't think that putin's in a good position

00:42:49.440 like he he may be in a good position vis-a-vis ukraine but he's not in a good position in the world 0.86

00:42:58.080 because china sort of owns his ass at this point seems like it anyway greta tunberg is on a boat and 1.00

00:43:07.520 she's heading to gaza and uh so she's going to join the latest gaza-bound freedom flotilla 0.99

00:43:16.640 and they're going to protest israel's actions well that should solve everything

00:43:22.320 um it seems to me that greta has done such a great job in other topics that if she can't end the war in 0.99

00:43:34.000 gaza i don't know again so we'll see if she survives that in times of israel's reporting now um meanwhile

00:43:45.520 you will not be surprised to know that the latest push to get a deal with hamas looks like it's not

00:43:55.120 going to work out

00:43:59.040 as if it ever could um steve wickoff says hamas's response to a gaza ceasefire proposal is unacceptable

00:44:08.640 and you know there's details but of course you know you don't even need to know the details you

00:44:16.480 just have to know that there really is no way that hamas is going to make a deal because i think the

00:44:24.480 the israelis are offering the fun the following deal uh if you surrender we'll put you in jail forever

00:44:32.320 kill you i don't think the hamas fighters really have a second play it's not like they're gonna 0.86

00:44:40.960 you know they're gonna find some new way to you know i don't make a better life they 0.99

00:44:48.880 the only way they're going to stay alive is if they keep they keep their uh hostages and they stay

00:44:55.280 underground as soon as they come above ground things are not going to go well for them at all

00:45:01.200 so how could there possibly be a deal well i don't know how there could be

00:45:07.600 so and i don't think they care about getting their own hostages back so that's probably no big deal

00:45:13.840 even though there are lots of them

00:45:17.600 anyway and then there's some fake news that came out of israel that said the said israel opened fire

00:45:25.680 on some civilian crowds that appears to not be true based on based on video of the event and in other

00:45:35.360 news ukraine is uh ramping it up and apparently they did a major drone hit on multiple russian air bases

00:45:44.880 so they're just taking out the russian planes on the ground

00:45:51.600 now that's not good because if they can reach all of these uh bases at least the bases that

00:45:59.600 would be close enough to threaten ukraine are most of the airplanes just sort of sitting there on the

00:46:07.120 airport tarmac because it looked like they could just destroy them at will if they were willing to go

00:46:14.000 that deep deeply into russia which apparently they are all right so that's all i got for you today

00:46:21.760 um there she is and uh i'm going to say hi to the locals people privately

00:46:34.480 and the rest of you thanks for joining and come back tomorrow same time same place

00:46:40.000 where we'll have some more fun because on sunday especially what else you got to watch it's just me

00:46:47.920 all right locals come and ask you

00:46:54.560 right

00:47:17.920 you

00:47:47.920 Thank you.

00:48:17.920 Thank you.
