Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2891 CWSA 07⧸08⧸25

00:00:00.880 Come on in.

00:00:02.980 There's lots of room up front.

00:00:05.900 Everybody, say aye to all of your best friends.

00:00:11.760 And find yourself a seat.

00:00:14.820 Because we've got a show.

00:00:17.140 But first, I'll make sure I can see all your comments.

00:00:22.240 Especially the locals' comments.

00:00:26.020 There we go.

00:00:30.000 Do, do, do, do, do, do.

00:00:38.280 Good morning, everybody.

00:00:44.660 And welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:48.640 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:51.340 And you've never had a better time.

00:00:53.640 But if you'd like to take a chance on elevating this experience through levels,

00:00:59.300 that no one can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains.

00:01:05.580 All you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass of tankard shells.

00:01:10.460 Just find a canteen jug or a flask.

00:01:12.760 A vessel of any kind.

00:01:14.680 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:16.300 I like coffee.

00:01:17.560 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.

00:01:20.660 The dopamine at the end of the day.

00:01:22.540 The thing that makes everything better.

00:01:24.080 It's called the simultaneous hip.

00:01:25.760 And it's going to happen now.

00:01:28.280 Go.

00:01:32.800 Oh, yeah.

00:01:33.920 Yeah.

00:01:36.240 You know what is interesting?

00:01:39.500 Well, I'll tell you.

00:01:41.240 Everything.

00:01:41.720 Now, what is interesting is that I'll bet if you measured the dopamine of the people watching

00:01:51.360 this on a regular basis, I'll bet it would be higher.

00:01:55.680 Because if you listen to somebody tell you that you're going to get a dopamine hit every

00:02:01.980 day, probably over time, your dopamine actually does spike when you do the simultaneous sip.

00:02:12.000 So, according to CBS, we will no longer need to remove our shoes to go through airport security.

00:02:23.300 How much do you like that?

00:02:25.140 Don't have to remove your shoes.

00:02:26.880 So, all you shoe bombers, go wild. 0.99

00:02:34.040 According to Victor David Hanson, whose article is being rerun in the post-millennial, guess what percentage of murders go unsolved in the United States?

00:02:49.060 Unsolved murders.

00:02:51.020 It's 58%.

00:02:52.780 What?

00:02:55.460 58% of all the murders in the U.S. are unsolved.

00:03:02.600 Apparently, other countries that are, you know, civilized, they solve like 80 to 90% of their murders.

00:03:10.660 But in the U.S., unsolved.

00:03:13.400 Now, I do not recommend that you murder anyone.

00:03:19.360 But if you have to, I would do it in the United States because it looks like a pretty good deal.

00:03:25.540 Now, why in the world do you think that U.S. murders are less solved?

00:03:31.520 I have a hypothesis, and it's just a guess.

00:03:36.820 But it might have to do with the fact that there's more gun-related murder.

00:03:43.140 Because if you murder somebody with a gun and nobody sees you and, you know, they don't find a gun, you probably get away with it, right?

00:03:56.420 But if you had a society where there weren't that many guns and you had to beat somebody to death personally or stab somebody or strangle them, you're probably going to leave some DNA on something, right?

00:04:13.120 So, it makes me wonder if the gun culture is the reason that there are fewer unsolved crimes, especially if you're doing a, you know, like a gang drive-by shooting, you know.

00:04:28.500 So, we got that going for us.

00:04:31.840 You can murder and have a good chance of getting away with it.

00:04:37.280 But don't do it.

00:04:38.760 Don't do it.

00:04:40.800 I have to add that.

00:04:42.080 Don't do it.

00:04:43.600 It's just that your odds of getting away with it are not too bad, 58%.

00:04:48.960 So, Mark Zuckerberg and Meta, they just poached another AI expert.

00:04:57.860 But this one they poached from Apple's AI department.

00:05:03.240 So, how would you like to be an AI expert, but you're working for Apple?

00:05:09.560 I'm not even sure Apple is building its own AI.

00:05:15.020 Isn't Apple just looking at other people's AI and figuring out which one to build into its phone?

00:05:20.440 So, if you were the Apple AI guy, you probably really, really, really wanted somebody to make a better offer.

00:05:30.320 You know, you heard about all those people getting poached who might be getting something like tens of millions of dollars, you know, just for moving to another AI company.

00:05:40.800 I've got a feeling that the Apple AI researcher, maybe he paid them.

00:05:47.480 It's like, look, I know you're giving $100 million to some people who are going to Meta for AI, but I really, really need to get out of Apple's AI group because it's embarrassing.

00:05:59.660 So, I will give you $500,000 if you will hire me away from me.

00:06:08.020 No, that's not what happened.

00:06:09.900 But wouldn't it be funny if it did?

00:06:11.820 Well, Tesla's talk went down yesterday.

00:06:16.680 It's up a little bit today.

00:06:19.100 But it went down 8% because, of course, Elon Musk getting political scares people off the stock.

00:06:29.520 And I'll tell you, it's getting harder and harder to be a Tesla stockholder, which I am, because you just look at it and you say, you know, I do respect, you know, the effort, the energy you're putting into trying to save the world and save the country from deficits.

00:06:53.920 But wouldn't it be great, too, if my stock went up?

00:07:01.680 So, I've got, it's not for sea turtles.

00:07:08.000 Okay, never mind.

00:07:09.140 This is a funny comment.

00:07:12.360 Anyway, so it's hard to be a Tesla investor lately.

00:07:15.300 You kind of have a lot of guts.

00:07:17.660 I would guess, and don't buy any stock based on me.

00:07:22.200 But if you would purchase stock every time Elon Musk did something provocative and the stock went down, wouldn't you be in the money now?

00:07:34.480 I feel like people go, oh, something might happen.

00:07:38.600 And then he just does his thing.

00:07:41.420 And then he retreats.

00:07:43.240 And then people say, all right, we're back to normal.

00:07:45.800 And then the stock goes back up.

00:07:47.860 We'll see.

00:07:48.320 So, I saw a video from Jay saying that back in February of this year, when I made my prediction about Epstein's client list,

00:08:03.280 and I forgot how tight that prediction was.

00:08:09.940 So, as you know, I predicted that you would never find out about Epstein's client list.

00:08:15.840 But when I saw the video played back, I realized that I'd given a tight little reason for it.

00:08:23.980 And the reason was this.

00:08:26.220 If the client list doesn't exist, then obviously you'll never see it.

00:08:32.860 Everybody agrees with that part, right?

00:08:34.680 If it doesn't exist, you're never going to see it.

00:08:38.180 But if it does exist, it would be too valuable to give away, meaning that whoever had that list would have blackmail control over some of the most powerful people in the world.

00:08:52.340 Who would give that away?

00:08:54.040 So, there were only two possibilities that I imagined.

00:08:59.020 One is it doesn't exist, so you won't see it.

00:09:01.960 And if it does exist, it's way too useful for whoever has control over it, whoever is the president at the time, etc.

00:09:08.800 So, that was the basis for my prediction.

00:09:16.640 I saw Alex Jones seems to be on the side of thinking that maybe Trump is using it for his own blackmail.

00:09:26.080 Maybe.

00:09:27.020 Maybe.

00:09:28.140 I wouldn't rule it down.

00:09:29.100 I saw a rumor on social media that Kash Patel has a girlfriend.

00:09:37.620 I don't know if this is true, by the way.

00:09:39.640 So, don't believe this is true because I saw something on the internet.

00:09:44.540 But if any of you have some better sources.

00:09:48.500 Some people are saying that Kash Patel's girlfriend is an ex-Israeli intelligence officer.

00:09:55.840 Is that true?

00:10:01.720 It feels a little too on the nose.

00:10:04.720 But really?

00:10:06.560 Is there any chance that's true?

00:10:09.080 So, I'm not going to assert that it's true.

00:10:12.100 It's just something that's on the internet right now.

00:11:15.900 Please play responsibly.

00:11:16.960 Then the other possibility is that you wouldn't see it because the current government doesn't want to take down some allied government.

00:11:31.100 So what if the Epstein list, as it were, what if it implicated an allied country?

00:11:40.560 You know, somebody that we didn't want to destroy?

00:11:45.700 Well, that might be enough reason to withhold it.

00:11:49.660 But let me mock the first possibility first.

00:11:55.880 If Epstein was as smart as they say, and I believe everybody agrees that although he was evil, that he was very smart.

00:12:05.660 If you were a really smart person who controlled a big blackmail network, would you also keep a document that showed all of your crimes?

00:12:21.660 And if you had such a document, would you have it in a digital form where somebody's going to find this someday?

00:12:28.860 Or would you write it on a piece of paper and keep it in your pocket?

00:12:33.620 Who in the world runs a major blackmail operation and then writes down, well, we got Prince Andrew?

00:12:43.840 And if you think about it for about a second, doesn't it occur to you that there couldn't possibly be a list?

00:12:55.740 You know, a list literally of all of his crimes or all the people that he coerced into crime, allegedly?

00:13:05.640 No, there's no chance there was a list.

00:13:10.760 If you've been thinking, oh, where do we see the list, the client list?

00:13:17.480 How in the world could there be a client list?

00:13:20.160 You know, there was a list of people who flew on the plane, but that's because of some, you know, flight regulation kind of thing.

00:13:29.160 It doesn't say that any of them were involved in a crime.

00:13:32.600 But do you think he would actually keep a list of the people that were involved in a crime?

00:13:39.340 To me, it's just funny that anybody would think he was such a criminal mastermind and he kept a list of his crimes.

00:13:48.020 What kind of criminals would you be?

00:13:52.180 You would be terrible criminals.

00:13:54.700 If you even thought for a second that he kept a list, you would be a terrible criminal.

00:14:02.600 You would be caught in five minutes because apparently you do not know how to get away with crimes.

00:14:07.540 All right, so here's some other things we know.

00:14:14.840 We know Mike Sardovich is reminding us that at one point there was a butler.

00:14:27.200 I guess it was a butler who said he was aware of all of Epstein's crimes.

00:14:33.400 So should we be hearing from the butler?

00:14:36.180 Well, if the only thing the butler knew was that Epstein himself committed a whole bunch of sex crimes with underage girls,

00:14:46.340 that part's not new.

00:14:49.100 And Epstein's dead, so, you know, that's not really going to change anything.

00:14:54.880 So I guess we can ignore the butler's commentary.

00:14:59.640 It might be interesting, but it wouldn't tell you anything new about anybody who was alive.

00:15:04.640 And then the gateway pundit is pointing out that at one point they tried to get some information,

00:15:13.800 and their lawyers had moved to intervene in the Ghislaine Maxwell case.

00:15:23.240 And apparently an anonymous John Doe, I think the gateway pundit was trying to get some more information or something.

00:15:30.500 And then an anonymous John Doe appeared, we still don't know who it was,

00:15:38.160 who filed an objection to TGP, the gateway pundit, unsealing the sex client list.

00:15:46.560 So there was somebody who stopped the process of revealing the client list,

00:15:54.480 but there is no client list.

00:15:58.520 Hmm.

00:15:58.680 So there was a court case in which an anonymous person prevented the gateway pundit from seeing the client list,

00:16:09.960 but also there is no client list.

00:16:14.720 Huh.

00:16:17.320 So maybe we're not being told the truth,

00:16:21.140 or maybe there was something about this John Doe that we'll never know.

00:16:30.540 And then, let's see, we had Ben Shapiro who's weighed in on this,

00:16:37.320 and he accepts the word of Kash Patel and Bongino and Pam Bondi,

00:16:47.760 because he believes that they would not lie.

00:16:51.480 He knows two or three of them,

00:16:54.020 and he's sure that they would not lie.

00:16:57.040 And so, he says that unless you have some information that's not available to the rest of us,

00:17:05.280 then it's sort of a case closed.

00:17:09.040 Was that what you expected?

00:17:11.580 Did you expect that Ben Shapiro would say,

00:17:15.060 oh yeah, I'm satisfied,

00:17:15.960 so I guess there was no blackmailing,

00:17:19.800 and I guess he killed himself in his cell,

00:17:23.060 and I guess there's no client list.

00:17:26.960 So it looks like Ben Shapiro is accepting that,

00:17:30.620 unless some new information comes to light that we haven't yet seen.

00:17:35.380 But then, let's check in with Matt Gaetz.

00:17:42.740 So, Matt Gaetz is saying,

00:17:44.900 there's just no way that the story we're getting is a real story.

00:17:50.120 Oh, so Matt Gaetz would be on the other side of it.

00:17:52.660 And he thinks that it was a foreign government that took him out.

00:17:58.880 A foreign government.

00:18:00.660 Hmm.

00:18:01.540 I wonder what foreign government he'd be referring to.

00:18:06.620 Could it be France?

00:18:09.920 Now, if you were going to just read the tea leaves of what it feels like is happening,

00:18:22.020 let me give you some other unrelated news.

00:18:26.040 Unrelated to this.

00:18:28.640 Completely unrelated.

00:18:29.980 Oh, and let me add in that Mike Cernovich is pretty active on this topic.

00:18:36.360 And he thinks that Trump's legacy will suffer if this is the final answer.

00:18:43.280 You know, that we don't get anything.

00:18:46.460 And I think to myself,

00:18:48.200 hmm, will it?

00:18:50.220 Will this legacy suffer?

00:18:52.320 Let's take it a little bit further.

00:18:55.540 You ready for this?

00:18:56.440 So, Netanyahu is in town.

00:19:00.760 And Netanyahu apparently brought with him a copy of the document where,

00:19:06.460 if I'm reading it correctly,

00:19:08.760 Israel has submitted Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize

00:19:14.220 for all the good peace making he's done.

00:19:20.200 And at the same time,

00:19:21.800 we're hoping that Trump has the magic

00:19:25.480 to pull off a deal that Israel would agree to,

00:19:29.480 that would work for Gaza,

00:19:31.880 that would lead us to

00:19:33.320 a gigantic,

00:19:35.640 just gigantic change

00:19:37.780 in the entire Middle East

00:19:39.780 that would be an expansion of the Abraham Accords.

00:19:44.160 So,

00:19:45.280 let's see if we can connect all of our dots.

00:19:48.320 Kash Patel may or may not have a girlfriend

00:19:52.560 who used to work for Israeli intelligence.

00:19:56.240 I can't confirm that.

00:19:59.080 Ben Shapiro,

00:20:00.460 who is often accused,

00:20:02.560 accused,

00:20:04.420 of being a little bit

00:20:05.540 too pro-Israel,

00:20:08.220 is seemingly quite happy

00:20:10.340 with the story

00:20:12.180 that other people don't seem to be happy with.

00:20:14.320 And then,

00:20:18.960 Matt Gaetz,

00:20:20.740 who has seen a lot more behind the curtain

00:20:23.500 than you have,

00:20:25.000 suggests that

00:20:25.920 a foreign country took him out.

00:20:29.360 Does anyone think

00:20:30.560 that he's referring to anyone

00:20:32.220 but Israel?

00:20:35.700 And then,

00:20:36.560 at the same time,

00:20:38.180 if you imagine that,

00:20:40.620 because we don't have evidence of this,

00:20:42.640 there's no evidence of this,

00:20:44.320 but if you are a conspiracy theory person,

00:20:49.380 you might say to yourself,

00:20:50.580 wait a minute,

00:20:51.880 what if Israel was behind it 0.82

00:20:54.180 and

00:20:54.960 we didn't want that information to get out?

00:20:59.560 What would be a reason

00:21:00.820 that we would protect that information

00:21:02.760 if that were the case?

00:21:05.740 And again,

00:21:06.400 I don't,

00:21:06.720 I have no

00:21:07.720 information that that's the case.

00:21:11.400 But what if it were?

00:21:12.260 What would Trump do

00:21:15.080 that would be the smartest thing

00:21:16.580 for Trump to do?

00:21:18.200 On one hand,

00:21:19.960 he had committed to tell us everything

00:21:21.800 and not hold anything back.

00:21:24.640 But,

00:21:25.680 what if

00:21:26.700 they had information

00:21:29.000 that suggested

00:21:29.740 that Israel might have been,

00:21:31.960 in any way,

00:21:33.580 involved with Epstein?

00:21:34.840 Do you think

00:21:36.620 this would have been

00:21:37.340 the time to reveal it?

00:21:40.360 When Netanyahu 0.53

00:21:41.500 is literally

00:21:42.680 nominating him

00:21:44.440 for the Nobel Peace Prize,

00:21:46.520 he's coming off

00:21:47.620 a gigantic win

00:21:48.720 with the Iran situation,

00:21:51.120 and

00:21:51.900 we might be getting close

00:21:53.700 to some kind of a

00:21:55.440 Gaza

00:21:56.060 peace deal

00:21:58.740 or ceasefire

00:21:59.860 or something.

00:22:00.600 And then,

00:22:02.380 if he gets that,

00:22:04.540 that would open the door

00:22:06.060 to all the countries

00:22:07.240 that are waiting

00:22:07.860 to join the Abraham Accords. 0.85

00:22:11.100 So let me,

00:22:12.140 let me ask you.

00:22:14.700 If you were Trump

00:22:16.040 and you had promised

00:22:18.760 to be completely transparent,

00:22:20.900 but you didn't,

00:22:21.800 really,

00:22:22.420 maybe you didn't know

00:22:23.160 how it was going to turn out

00:22:24.340 yourself,

00:22:25.600 you said,

00:22:26.140 be completely transparent.

00:22:27.680 But hypothetically,

00:22:30.800 what if that transparency

00:22:32.320 would destroy

00:22:33.900 the best chance

00:22:35.260 for peace

00:22:36.060 the Middle East

00:22:37.700 has ever seen?

00:22:38.580 By far.

00:22:39.340 I mean,

00:22:39.620 nothing's ever been close.

00:22:41.520 And it would also

00:22:42.360 completely destroy

00:22:43.640 his reputation.

00:22:46.980 Well,

00:22:47.640 it would destroy

00:22:48.740 his chance

00:22:49.360 of getting the Nobel Peace Prize.

00:22:51.020 So his legacy

00:22:51.780 would be destroyed.

00:22:53.820 Trump's would.

00:22:55.400 Compared to

00:22:56.320 what it could be,

00:22:57.420 very soon.

00:22:59.860 So,

00:23:00.540 I'm not suggesting

00:23:02.540 that Israel

00:23:03.840 was involved

00:23:04.560 in any way.

00:23:06.180 What I'm saying is,

00:23:07.920 if that were the reason

00:23:09.220 that you're not

00:23:09.860 seeing the truth,

00:23:11.560 it would make

00:23:12.180 perfect sense

00:23:13.040 for the good

00:23:13.680 of the country.

00:23:15.240 So,

00:23:15.860 I would agree,

00:23:17.720 and again,

00:23:18.320 this is purely speculative.

00:23:20.560 I have no

00:23:21.240 insider information

00:23:22.380 on this at all.

00:23:24.040 But if it's true

00:23:25.200 that Israel

00:23:26.420 was,

00:23:27.080 you know,

00:23:27.700 deeply involved

00:23:28.460 with Epstein,

00:23:29.580 this would be

00:23:30.840 exactly the time

00:23:32.040 not to bring that up.

00:23:34.000 You know what I mean?

00:23:35.620 And if I someday learned

00:23:37.340 that Trump knew

00:23:38.700 exactly what

00:23:39.760 was being withheld,

00:23:41.460 and he decided

00:23:42.260 to just tell everybody

00:23:43.280 to lie about it,

00:23:44.680 and if he went

00:23:45.680 to Kash Patel

00:23:46.640 and Dan Bongino

00:23:47.660 and Bondi

00:23:48.620 and said,

00:23:48.940 here's the deal.

00:23:50.780 If you tell the truth

00:23:52.120 about this,

00:23:52.940 again,

00:23:53.340 this is just speculation.

00:23:54.740 It's not,

00:23:55.200 this is not real.

00:23:57.260 We'll lose

00:23:58.080 the biggest chance

00:23:59.140 for Middle East peace

00:24:00.180 we've ever had.

00:24:02.080 So,

00:24:02.660 I'm going to,

00:24:03.060 I'm going to give you

00:24:04.120 an order

00:24:04.660 that this is such

00:24:06.480 top secret

00:24:07.180 that you just have

00:24:08.080 to lie.

00:24:09.220 You're just going

00:24:10.060 to have to lie.

00:24:11.480 And I know

00:24:12.040 you hate it,

00:24:13.220 but we've got

00:24:14.560 to protect this deal.

00:24:15.740 It's just

00:24:16.080 too big a deal.

00:24:16.760 would you then,

00:24:19.860 if that were true,

00:24:21.060 and again,

00:24:21.580 I have no evidence

00:24:22.240 to suggest it is,

00:24:23.760 if that were true,

00:24:25.520 would you tell yourself

00:24:26.640 that Trump

00:24:27.620 had screwed

00:24:28.320 the country

00:24:28.920 or

00:24:31.000 maybe

00:24:32.520 maybe took

00:24:34.120 a chance

00:24:34.580 with his own legacy

00:24:35.620 to do the thing

00:24:37.500 that would be

00:24:38.020 good for the country

00:24:38.900 and good for the world?

00:24:41.660 It's a complicated world.

00:24:44.620 So,

00:24:44.980 I would say

00:24:47.720 that

00:24:48.080 I don't believe

00:24:49.820 that

00:24:50.560 we're being told

00:24:52.600 the truth.

00:24:55.140 But I also

00:24:56.060 don't think

00:24:56.700 that it's lying

00:24:58.060 in the traditional sense.

00:25:00.360 Because

00:25:00.680 if our

00:25:01.640 people involved

00:25:02.760 in our intelligence

00:25:03.500 groups

00:25:04.040 or just people

00:25:04.760 who know

00:25:05.120 what these secrets are,

00:25:06.880 if they lie to you

00:25:08.060 for the

00:25:09.040 good of the country,

00:25:11.420 which would be normal,

00:25:13.060 your own intelligence

00:25:14.020 people lying to you

00:25:15.240 for the good

00:25:15.920 of the country,

00:25:17.000 is that lying?

00:25:19.740 Is that the lying

00:25:20.880 that you would hold

00:25:21.540 against somebody?

00:25:23.200 If you knew

00:25:24.440 that the reason

00:25:25.200 they were lying

00:25:25.960 is for the good

00:25:27.960 of the country?

00:25:30.800 I don't know.

00:25:31.760 I wouldn't hold it

00:25:32.680 against any of them.

00:25:34.400 Because that would

00:25:35.180 be their job.

00:25:36.380 It would literally

00:25:37.180 be their job

00:25:38.060 to sometimes

00:25:39.640 tell us

00:25:41.320 that they

00:25:41.800 don't know something

00:25:42.960 when they do

00:25:43.540 know something.

00:25:45.100 The other possibility,

00:25:47.060 which has got to be

00:25:48.420 way at the top

00:25:49.420 of the possibilities,

00:25:50.780 is that by the time

00:25:52.200 those three people

00:25:53.820 got into their jobs,

00:25:55.820 Patel and Bondi

00:25:57.020 and Bongino,

00:25:58.980 that anybody

00:26:00.200 who had access

00:26:00.980 to that file

00:26:01.900 had long ago

00:26:03.460 gotten rid of

00:26:04.200 anything that was damning.

00:26:05.420 do you think

00:26:08.640 that

00:26:08.960 do you think

00:26:11.180 that if the files

00:26:12.480 had such like

00:26:13.760 explosive damning

00:26:15.140 materials in them

00:26:16.040 that the people

00:26:17.440 who had access

00:26:18.080 to it

00:26:18.560 and were hiding

00:26:19.260 them up till now

00:26:20.360 would have said,

00:26:22.640 ah, well,

00:26:24.040 we tried pretty hard

00:26:25.080 to hide them,

00:26:26.500 but I guess

00:26:27.060 here you go.

00:26:28.960 Here's all our

00:26:29.660 damning files

00:26:30.480 that we didn't

00:26:31.040 want you to see.

00:26:32.460 In what world

00:26:33.280 would that happen?

00:26:34.780 No world.

00:26:36.340 In every world

00:26:37.640 I've ever lived in,

00:26:39.220 the people who

00:26:39.760 had access to the files

00:26:41.020 would have lost

00:26:42.640 everything that needed

00:26:44.460 to get lost

00:26:45.300 before the people

00:26:46.400 who were likely

00:26:47.240 to at least even

00:26:48.880 consider making it

00:26:50.100 public

00:26:50.500 got into office.

00:26:53.140 So,

00:26:53.980 it doesn't mean

00:26:54.640 that the three people

00:26:56.140 in charge

00:26:56.640 that we've heard of

00:26:57.420 are lying.

00:26:58.680 It could be

00:26:59.500 that literally

00:27:00.360 everything was removed.

00:27:02.440 Have you seen

00:27:02.960 the video

00:27:03.520 they released

00:27:04.240 of what

00:27:05.440 alleges to be

00:27:06.460 the entrance

00:27:07.820 to Epstein's cell?

00:27:11.680 And it alleges

00:27:13.380 that that's proof

00:27:14.880 that nothing happened

00:27:16.900 to,

00:27:17.940 at least in terms

00:27:18.900 of murder,

00:27:19.480 nothing happened.

00:27:21.380 And then we find out

00:27:22.600 that there's a minute

00:27:23.620 that's edited

00:27:25.180 out of the video,

00:27:26.040 a full minute.

00:27:27.140 I don't know

00:27:29.940 if you've seen

00:27:30.560 somebody who's already

00:27:31.620 used AI

00:27:33.060 to insert

00:27:34.640 Hillary Clinton

00:27:35.500 into the video.

00:27:37.920 So,

00:27:38.560 the missing one minute

00:27:39.580 they say

00:27:40.160 is Hillary Clinton

00:27:41.500 entering Epstein's cell?

00:27:45.280 It's pretty funny.

00:28:00.800 You're richer

00:28:01.280 than you think.

00:28:03.400 Well,

00:28:04.160 if you're going

00:28:04.880 to release a video

00:28:05.980 and you're not

00:28:07.160 going to explain

00:28:07.860 why there's

00:28:08.400 a minute missing,

00:28:09.980 because you can

00:28:10.580 see the timer.

00:28:11.920 So,

00:28:12.540 we know

00:28:12.820 there's a minute

00:28:13.360 missing.

00:28:14.600 We're not guessing

00:28:15.800 there's a timer

00:28:17.100 on the video

00:28:17.780 and it's literally

00:28:19.120 just missing

00:28:19.720 the minute.

00:28:21.240 So,

00:28:21.920 I would say

00:28:23.260 that

00:28:23.680 it's a

00:28:26.020 suspicious

00:28:26.540 situation.

00:28:28.360 But it doesn't

00:28:29.600 mean

00:28:29.960 that the people

00:28:31.500 involved

00:28:32.120 are traitors

00:28:33.560 or that they're

00:28:34.320 being blackmailed

00:28:35.180 or whatever.

00:28:36.220 Now,

00:28:36.660 the other

00:28:37.360 strong possibility

00:28:39.680 is that

00:28:40.800 Trump found out

00:28:41.820 that

00:28:43.000 let's say

00:28:44.160 let's say

00:28:45.700 that Trump

00:28:46.140 needed

00:28:46.600 Netanyahu

00:28:47.500 and Israel

00:28:48.140 to make

00:28:49.120 some concessions

00:28:50.360 in order

00:28:51.520 to get

00:28:51.920 a big

00:28:52.480 lasting

00:28:53.300 peace deal.

00:28:55.360 What would

00:28:56.060 be the best

00:28:56.620 way to get

00:28:57.180 Israel to

00:28:57.740 make some

00:28:58.180 concessions?

00:29:00.460 Well,

00:29:01.060 you might

00:29:01.440 suggest

00:29:02.040 that the

00:29:03.060 only person

00:29:03.700 preventing

00:29:04.320 the public

00:29:05.080 from seeing

00:29:05.700 the Epstein

00:29:06.560 files is

00:29:07.280 you.

00:29:08.340 And that

00:29:09.020 might be

00:29:09.360 the case.

00:29:10.580 It could

00:29:11.060 be that

00:29:11.400 the only

00:29:12.000 person

00:29:12.560 who's

00:29:13.520 standing

00:29:13.800 between

00:29:14.300 the public

00:29:15.380 and those

00:29:16.160 files

00:29:16.600 is Trump.

00:29:18.720 Maybe.

00:29:20.060 And if

00:29:20.800 he's using

00:29:21.400 that to

00:29:21.840 negotiate

00:29:22.300 with Israel

00:29:23.120 to get

00:29:24.400 a lasting

00:29:25.240 Middle East

00:29:25.860 peace deal,

00:29:27.540 well,

00:29:28.360 would that

00:29:29.880 be bad?

00:29:32.340 Would you

00:29:33.180 hate it?

00:29:34.380 Would you

00:29:35.200 hate it

00:29:35.800 if Trump

00:29:36.460 was using

00:29:37.080 the information

00:29:37.720 as blackmail

00:29:39.080 just to

00:29:41.660 make sure

00:29:42.060 he got a

00:29:42.480 peace deal

00:29:42.960 in the

00:29:43.200 Middle East? 0.55

00:29:43.880 I wouldn't

00:29:44.480 hate it.

00:29:45.720 I'm not

00:29:46.220 saying it's

00:29:46.760 happening,

00:29:47.800 because again,

00:29:48.500 I have no

00:29:48.920 information that

00:29:49.680 would lead me

00:29:50.460 to that

00:29:50.860 conclusion.

00:29:52.280 But if

00:29:52.800 it's

00:29:53.020 happening,

00:29:55.080 I wouldn't

00:29:55.900 be too

00:29:57.100 opposed.

00:29:59.240 I mean,

00:29:59.900 if you hand

00:30:00.460 Trump an

00:30:01.160 asset,

00:30:02.960 he doesn't

00:30:03.680 leave it on

00:30:04.160 the table.

00:30:05.340 He has a

00:30:05.940 long history

00:30:06.520 of not

00:30:06.960 wasting money.

00:30:07.700 he doesn't

00:30:09.460 leave money

00:30:10.000 on the

00:30:10.300 table.

00:30:10.700 It would

00:30:10.760 be free

00:30:11.160 money,

00:30:11.900 so he'd

00:30:12.240 probably

00:30:12.400 just pick

00:30:12.820 it up.

00:30:15.020 Anyway,

00:30:15.800 we'll see

00:30:16.320 what happens.

00:30:17.080 Maybe

00:30:17.280 someday we'll

00:30:17.900 know.

00:30:18.640 Maybe not.

00:30:22.140 I said

00:30:22.900 this before,

00:30:23.600 but the

00:30:24.400 BBC is

00:30:25.300 telling us

00:30:26.820 that Hamas 0.99

00:30:28.900 in Gaza

00:30:29.900 is completely

00:30:31.200 destroyed.

00:30:32.760 95% of

00:30:33.840 the leadership

00:30:34.320 is dead.

00:30:35.800 The ones

00:30:36.180 who are

00:30:36.440 remaining

00:30:36.920 are just

00:30:38.360 disorganized

00:30:39.800 and essentially

00:30:41.420 there's no

00:30:41.980 more Hamas 1.00

00:30:42.620 leadership

00:30:43.280 left.

00:30:46.020 But that

00:30:47.140 means that

00:30:47.660 there's

00:30:49.820 chaos there

00:30:50.640 and that

00:30:51.800 there's a

00:30:56.140 bunch of

00:30:56.380 little war

00:30:56.900 lords.

00:30:57.980 Criminal

00:30:58.380 gangs are 0.98

00:30:59.120 running certain

00:30:59.700 areas,

00:31:00.300 et cetera.

00:31:00.560 So it's

00:31:01.540 complete

00:31:02.020 lawlessness

00:31:03.180 and it

00:31:10.880 seems like

00:31:11.400 Israel's 0.75

00:31:11.920 getting

00:31:12.160 everything

00:31:12.600 it wants

00:31:13.220 in that

00:31:14.440 area

00:31:14.800 because

00:31:16.020 have you

00:31:16.620 noticed that

00:31:17.360 there's a

00:31:18.460 complete lack

00:31:19.860 of complaining

00:31:20.680 from the other

00:31:21.580 Arab countries?

00:31:22.380 isn't that

00:31:25.180 weird?

00:31:26.020 I thought

00:31:26.880 the reason

00:31:27.540 that the

00:31:27.920 other

00:31:28.100 countries

00:31:28.540 were not

00:31:29.080 joining

00:31:29.740 the Abraham

00:31:31.320 Accords

00:31:31.860 is because

00:31:33.160 the Palestinian

00:31:34.020 situation

00:31:34.740 had not

00:31:35.200 been

00:31:35.520 solved.

00:31:37.340 Now I

00:31:38.040 know Gaza

00:31:38.580 is not

00:31:39.120 by itself

00:31:40.420 the Palestinian

00:31:41.340 situation,

00:31:42.860 but

00:31:43.080 does it

00:31:44.360 seem weird

00:31:44.840 to you

00:31:45.260 that nobody's

00:31:46.000 complaining?

00:31:46.600 not at

00:31:49.160 the moment,

00:31:49.940 is there?

00:31:50.940 Is there any

00:31:51.520 Middle East

00:31:52.020 country who

00:31:52.600 says we

00:31:53.540 will never

00:31:53.980 deal with

00:31:54.500 Israel? 0.53

00:31:55.320 I feel

00:31:56.360 like the

00:31:56.760 Middle East

00:31:57.220 was happy

00:31:58.340 to take

00:31:58.860 Hamas off

00:31:59.600 the chess

00:32:00.980 board.

00:32:02.140 They just

00:32:02.600 can't say

00:32:03.180 that out

00:32:03.580 loud.

00:32:04.940 So that

00:32:05.940 was good.

00:32:07.080 There's a

00:32:07.680 rumor that

00:32:09.260 I don't

00:32:09.560 think is

00:32:10.060 confirmed,

00:32:11.660 but Charlie

00:32:12.580 Kirk is a

00:32:13.400 good source

00:32:14.000 and he

00:32:14.660 says he's

00:32:15.160 been hearing

00:32:15.640 from people

00:32:16.280 that there

00:32:17.520 are

00:32:17.740 Republicans

00:32:18.400 pushing

00:32:19.280 Trump to

00:32:20.000 do a

00:32:20.340 mass

00:32:20.660 amnesty

00:32:21.280 of

00:32:22.820 migrants

00:32:24.820 who are

00:32:25.200 undocumented.

00:32:26.740 Does that

00:32:27.480 sound real

00:32:28.120 to you?

00:32:29.840 And if

00:32:30.600 somebody is

00:32:31.220 pushing it,

00:32:32.300 do you

00:32:32.580 think there's

00:32:33.100 any chance

00:32:34.020 that Trump

00:32:34.840 would agree

00:32:35.380 to it?

00:32:36.820 Maybe

00:32:37.380 they're only

00:32:38.880 talking about

00:32:39.440 a mass

00:32:39.840 amnesty

00:32:40.280 for a

00:32:42.180 couple of

00:32:42.640 industries.

00:32:44.300 So it

00:32:44.620 might be

00:32:44.940 industry

00:32:45.400 specific,

00:32:46.280 because

00:32:46.900 Trump has

00:32:47.520 talked about

00:32:48.200 not deporting

00:32:50.380 hotel workers

00:32:51.580 and farm

00:32:52.160 workers.

00:32:53.180 So could

00:32:53.800 it be

00:32:54.180 that there's

00:32:55.360 a push 0.97

00:32:55.860 for him

00:32:56.320 to make

00:32:58.240 citizens

00:32:58.900 out of the

00:32:59.440 people who

00:32:59.940 have been

00:33:00.220 working here

00:33:00.780 a long

00:33:01.120 time in

00:33:01.720 some specific

00:33:03.780 industries?

00:33:05.280 Or is it

00:33:06.120 possible that

00:33:06.900 none of it's

00:33:07.380 true or

00:33:08.480 that only a

00:33:09.140 few people

00:33:09.660 are pushing

00:33:10.100 for it so

00:33:10.740 it's nothing

00:33:11.140 to worry

00:33:11.540 about?

00:33:11.800 Yeah,

00:33:13.860 he did

00:33:14.300 talk about

00:33:14.860 industry

00:33:15.380 specific,

00:33:16.760 but that

00:33:17.340 doesn't mean

00:33:17.860 that that's

00:33:18.340 connected to

00:33:19.120 this rumor.

00:33:20.480 So anyway,

00:33:21.080 so that

00:33:21.440 rumor is

00:33:21.860 out there.

00:33:25.260 Putin

00:33:25.860 recently

00:33:27.100 fired his

00:33:27.840 own transport

00:33:28.940 minister,

00:33:30.420 who then

00:33:31.380 coincidentally

00:33:32.080 died by

00:33:32.800 gunshot

00:33:33.380 hours later

00:33:34.460 after getting

00:33:35.060 fired.

00:33:35.480 I believe

00:33:36.900 they're

00:33:37.160 calling it

00:33:37.640 a suicide.

00:33:40.300 Boy,

00:33:41.060 getting fired

00:33:42.000 in Russia?

00:33:43.440 That's a

00:33:44.120 pretty brutal

00:33:44.720 deal,

00:33:45.180 isn't it?

00:33:46.040 Well,

00:33:46.620 you've been

00:33:47.020 fired,

00:33:48.540 but I've

00:33:49.460 got some

00:33:49.960 bad news

00:33:50.520 and some

00:33:50.860 worse news.

00:33:52.160 Well,

00:33:52.660 what's the

00:33:53.120 bad news?

00:33:54.420 Putin just

00:33:55.100 fired you. 0.56

00:33:55.820 Oh,

00:33:56.120 God,

00:33:56.600 no.

00:33:57.420 I lost

00:33:57.840 my job.

00:33:59.040 What's the

00:33:59.520 worst news?

00:34:00.920 You can't

00:34:01.560 fly.

00:34:03.120 I can't

00:34:03.880 go on an

00:34:04.280 airplane?

00:34:05.340 No,

00:34:05.780 no.

00:34:06.280 They're

00:34:06.500 going to

00:34:06.680 throw you

00:34:07.080 out of a

00:34:07.560 high window

00:34:08.160 to your

00:34:09.140 death and

00:34:09.940 you can't

00:34:10.540 fly by

00:34:11.860 flapping

00:34:12.180 your arms.

00:34:13.160 So,

00:34:13.700 bad news

00:34:14.160 there.

00:34:15.380 So,

00:34:15.800 do you

00:34:16.000 think it's

00:34:16.460 a coincidence

00:34:17.420 that the

00:34:18.760 guy that

00:34:19.380 Putin decided

00:34:20.420 to fire

00:34:20.980 tragically

00:34:24.560 died very

00:34:26.400 soon after?

00:34:28.540 I don't

00:34:28.960 know.

00:34:33.080 President

00:34:33.640 Trump,

00:34:34.640 said yesterday

00:34:35.560 that he

00:34:36.000 wants to

00:34:36.440 send more

00:34:36.920 weapons over

00:34:37.660 to Ukraine

00:34:38.560 because,

00:34:40.120 as you

00:34:40.360 know,

00:34:40.700 Putin has

00:34:41.240 shown no

00:34:41.980 interest

00:34:42.400 whatsoever in

00:34:43.240 peace and

00:34:44.320 he appears

00:34:44.900 to be back

00:34:46.440 to his

00:34:46.880 winning

00:34:47.340 property or

00:34:48.780 winning territory

00:34:50.180 and grinding 0.60

00:34:51.620 down the

00:34:52.180 Ukrainian

00:34:52.660 military.

00:34:54.120 So,

00:34:54.620 Putin seems

00:34:55.300 to have no

00:34:55.780 interest in

00:34:56.320 peace and

00:34:57.220 he was just

00:34:57.800 dicking Trump

00:34:58.880 along and

00:35:00.500 Trump is not

00:35:01.440 happy with

00:35:01.920 him.

00:35:03.300 So,

00:35:04.220 Trump also

00:35:05.300 has no

00:35:05.780 levers to

00:35:06.500 press,

00:35:07.460 no buttons

00:35:08.240 to push,

00:35:09.000 levers to

00:35:09.580 pull, 0.91

00:35:09.840 I guess.

00:35:10.800 So,

00:35:11.320 what do you

00:35:11.660 do if you

00:35:12.040 have no

00:35:12.500 leverage

00:35:12.920 whatsoever?

00:35:14.200 Because I

00:35:14.720 think it'd

00:35:16.040 be hard to

00:35:16.520 come up with

00:35:17.020 new sanctions

00:35:17.720 that they

00:35:18.180 haven't already

00:35:18.680 used.

00:35:20.060 And,

00:35:20.640 what else

00:35:22.400 do you

00:35:22.580 have?

00:35:23.900 He's just

00:35:24.500 got no

00:35:25.020 weapons.

00:35:26.460 So,

00:35:26.860 Trump is

00:35:27.540 okaying some

00:35:29.240 extra weapons

00:35:30.120 for Ukraine.

00:35:31.840 But,

00:35:32.900 is that the

00:35:34.620 best that we

00:35:35.460 have?

00:35:36.720 Is that the

00:35:37.240 best we can

00:35:37.840 do?

00:35:39.420 Because that's

00:35:40.860 not going to

00:35:41.360 get it done.

00:35:43.840 So,

00:35:44.540 the thing I

00:35:45.240 would be

00:35:45.520 looking for

00:35:46.240 is for Trump

00:35:47.500 to do

00:35:47.860 something that's

00:35:48.660 out of the

00:35:49.180 box.

00:35:50.460 One thing

00:35:51.260 that might be

00:35:51.780 out of the

00:35:52.140 box is,

00:35:54.560 I can imagine

00:35:55.440 Trump approving

00:35:56.520 some weapons

00:35:57.260 for Ukraine

00:35:58.180 that Ukraine 0.91

00:35:59.820 has never

00:36:00.320 seen yet.

00:36:02.000 And,

00:36:02.340 maybe,

00:36:03.300 Russia has 0.96

00:36:03.900 never seen

00:36:04.520 it either.

00:36:05.880 So,

00:36:06.420 it could be

00:36:07.260 that Trump

00:36:08.540 would say,

00:36:10.420 all right,

00:36:11.240 we've been

00:36:11.640 holding off

00:36:12.320 on our

00:36:12.760 really good

00:36:13.620 weapons.

00:36:15.020 We're giving

00:36:15.740 you the best

00:36:16.320 that we have

00:36:16.800 for shooting

00:36:17.340 down incoming

00:36:18.480 missiles.

00:36:19.140 That's a

00:36:19.580 defensive weapon.

00:36:21.020 But,

00:36:21.720 we really

00:36:22.220 haven't given

00:36:22.920 you our

00:36:23.500 best offensive

00:36:25.060 weapons because

00:36:26.480 we like to

00:36:27.000 keep that

00:36:27.380 a little

00:36:27.660 secret from

00:36:28.780 the bad

00:36:29.180 guys.

00:36:30.160 And,

00:36:30.360 the moment

00:36:30.660 you use

00:36:31.840 them,

00:36:32.900 then they're

00:36:33.340 going to

00:36:33.560 know they

00:36:33.900 exist and

00:36:35.020 they're going

00:36:35.340 to develop

00:36:35.720 defenses against

00:36:36.640 them.

00:36:37.020 We don't

00:36:37.260 want that.

00:36:39.100 But,

00:36:39.920 would that

00:36:41.460 be enough

00:36:41.840 to stop

00:36:42.360 Trump from

00:36:42.880 saying,

00:36:43.920 all right,

00:36:44.840 let's see

00:36:45.260 what happens

00:36:45.880 if we give

00:36:46.440 them the

00:36:46.800 good stuff?

00:36:48.260 Just try

00:36:48.800 it for a

00:36:49.200 month.

00:36:49.420 what if

00:36:50.860 suddenly

00:36:52.000 Ukraine,

00:36:53.260 which apparently

00:36:53.740 is doing

00:36:54.160 great with

00:36:55.300 their own

00:36:55.700 domestic

00:36:56.380 drone-making

00:36:57.880 industries,

00:36:59.100 they're making

00:36:59.500 their own

00:36:59.900 drones and

00:37:00.580 making lots

00:37:01.360 of them and

00:37:01.920 making really

00:37:02.380 good ones.

00:37:03.740 What if

00:37:04.420 the U.S.

00:37:05.760 has the

00:37:07.000 next level

00:37:07.800 of drone?

00:37:09.120 Like the

00:37:09.820 drone that

00:37:10.400 is so good,

00:37:11.960 you just say

00:37:12.540 to yourself,

00:37:13.140 now that's a

00:37:13.640 hell of a

00:37:14.040 drone.

00:37:15.100 I had no

00:37:15.920 idea we had

00:37:16.800 that kind

00:37:17.220 of drone.

00:37:17.620 What if

00:37:19.100 Trump said,

00:37:20.740 all right,

00:37:21.760 Putin,

00:37:22.980 we've got

00:37:23.960 some surprises

00:37:24.700 for you.

00:37:25.720 It's not

00:37:26.180 every surprise

00:37:27.000 we have,

00:37:28.040 but we're

00:37:28.660 going to

00:37:28.880 open the

00:37:29.380 box and

00:37:30.840 Ukraine,

00:37:31.680 take what

00:37:32.080 you want.

00:37:34.120 Because it

00:37:35.160 seems to me

00:37:35.920 that our

00:37:37.140 best weapons

00:37:38.200 could just

00:37:39.520 rip a hole

00:37:40.380 in the

00:37:41.620 entire

00:37:42.080 Russian

00:37:43.780 front line.

00:37:46.580 And

00:37:47.180 probably

00:37:47.740 there was

00:37:48.100 a reason

00:37:48.440 that we

00:37:48.740 wouldn't

00:37:49.900 want to

00:37:50.280 allow them

00:37:50.980 our best

00:37:51.420 weapons.

00:37:52.660 When I

00:37:53.340 found out

00:37:53.760 my friend

00:37:54.220 got a

00:37:54.580 great deal

00:37:55.180 on a

00:37:55.540 wool coat

00:37:55.940 from Winners,

00:37:56.780 I started

00:37:57.540 wondering,

00:37:58.460 is every

00:37:59.280 fabulous item

00:38:00.060 I see

00:38:00.480 from Winners?

00:38:01.540 Like that

00:38:02.080 woman over 0.99

00:38:02.560 there with

00:38:03.020 the designer

00:38:03.460 jeans.

00:38:04.280 Are those

00:38:04.880 from Winners?

00:38:05.820 Ooh,

00:38:06.440 are those

00:38:06.780 beautiful gold

00:38:07.400 earrings?

00:38:08.280 Did she

00:38:08.540 pay full

00:38:08.860 price?

00:38:09.640 Or that

00:38:09.880 leather tote?

00:38:10.640 Or that

00:38:10.880 cashmere

00:38:11.240 sweater?

00:38:11.860 Or those

00:38:12.160 knee-high

00:38:12.460 boots?

00:38:13.300 That dress?

00:38:14.080 That jacket?

00:38:14.760 Those shoes?

00:38:15.420 Is anyone

00:38:16.580 paying full

00:38:17.200 price for

00:38:17.760 anything?

00:38:18.760 Stop

00:38:19.220 wondering.

00:38:20.040 Start

00:38:20.260 winning.

00:38:20.940 Winners

00:38:21.340 find

00:38:21.760 fabulous

00:38:22.200 for less.

00:38:24.540 So we'll

00:38:25.420 see.

00:38:26.320 Did you

00:38:26.800 see that

00:38:27.400 China

00:38:28.860 separately,

00:38:31.180 China is 0.85

00:38:33.160 putting a

00:38:33.900 gigantic,

00:38:35.480 I guess

00:38:36.200 it's a

00:38:36.620 solar

00:38:37.140 satellite

00:38:37.980 that would

00:38:39.240 collect a

00:38:39.900 bunch of

00:38:40.320 solar power

00:38:41.020 in space,

00:38:41.760 and then

00:38:42.960 it would

00:38:43.260 beam it

00:38:43.740 down to

00:38:44.380 where it

00:38:44.800 was needed

00:38:45.260 on a

00:38:45.700 microwave.

00:38:47.940 And when

00:38:48.880 I read

00:38:49.160 the story,

00:38:49.920 the story

00:38:50.520 was about

00:38:51.120 energy

00:38:51.600 production

00:38:52.140 and how

00:38:53.400 they could

00:38:53.720 produce more

00:38:54.360 energy because

00:38:55.200 there's nothing

00:38:56.560 blocking the

00:38:57.160 sun when

00:38:57.800 you're in

00:38:58.100 space.

00:38:59.200 So the

00:38:59.640 satellite with

00:39:01.080 the big

00:39:01.400 solar power

00:39:02.200 parts to

00:39:04.080 it would

00:39:04.960 collect

00:39:05.500 energy really

00:39:07.820 efficiently up

00:39:08.980 there in

00:39:09.300 space and

00:39:10.280 then it

00:39:10.540 would microwave

00:39:11.200 it down

00:39:11.600 to Earth.

00:39:12.800 Now the

00:39:13.160 first thing

00:39:13.620 I thought

00:39:14.020 was,

00:39:15.020 really?

00:39:16.020 That

00:39:16.300 microwave is

00:39:17.220 just to

00:39:17.920 transport energy

00:39:19.940 to their

00:39:20.420 domestic audience?

00:39:22.700 Wouldn't a

00:39:23.440 microwave beam

00:39:24.340 from space

00:39:25.160 be kind of

00:39:26.740 a good

00:39:27.100 weapon?

00:39:28.760 Is it my

00:39:29.660 imagination

00:39:30.340 that if you

00:39:31.640 send a

00:39:32.120 microwave beam

00:39:32.940 from space

00:39:33.700 and aimed

00:39:34.680 it at

00:39:35.000 somebody's

00:39:35.560 equipment or

00:39:36.440 their power

00:39:36.980 station,

00:39:37.840 that it

00:39:38.060 would fry

00:39:38.480 it?

00:39:39.620 Wouldn't

00:39:39.940 it?

00:39:40.200 So when

00:39:42.080 you think

00:39:42.460 about what

00:39:42.880 kind of

00:39:43.240 weapons the

00:39:43.840 U.S.

00:39:44.240 would have,

00:39:45.020 we wouldn't,

00:39:45.580 obviously,

00:39:46.160 we wouldn't

00:39:46.660 give Ukraine

00:39:47.500 a satellite

00:39:48.580 based death

00:39:50.000 beam,

00:39:50.600 but there

00:39:51.360 might be

00:39:51.760 something we

00:39:52.440 have that

00:39:54.380 we're willing

00:39:54.860 to say,

00:39:55.600 all right,

00:39:56.800 try this,

00:39:57.800 try this for

00:39:58.480 a month.

00:39:59.740 Well,

00:40:00.040 if you can

00:40:00.460 think of

00:40:01.060 even,

00:40:02.100 if you can

00:40:02.620 come up

00:40:03.020 with even

00:40:03.440 one idea

00:40:04.320 that's better

00:40:05.840 than that,

00:40:06.420 let me

00:40:08.300 know,

00:40:08.720 because I'm

00:40:09.160 not aware

00:40:10.100 of any

00:40:10.640 idea that

00:40:12.180 would make

00:40:12.780 Putin even

00:40:13.460 consider slowing

00:40:14.600 down,

00:40:15.380 because he's

00:40:15.820 winning.

00:40:18.420 Well,

00:40:19.220 according to

00:40:20.040 Remix,

00:40:21.000 a bunch of

00:40:21.580 Ukrainian

00:40:22.300 oligarchs have 1.00

00:40:23.140 become incredibly

00:40:23.980 rich from

00:40:24.860 the war,

00:40:26.900 so there's

00:40:28.380 something like

00:40:28.900 five oligarchs

00:40:30.240 who have

00:40:31.180 cleverly played

00:40:32.500 the whole

00:40:33.200 war situation,

00:40:34.860 so they've

00:40:35.340 gotten richer

00:40:35.960 and probably

00:40:36.800 more powerful,

00:40:38.420 and so

00:40:39.180 Zelensky's got 0.76

00:40:40.140 these five

00:40:40.820 oligarchs who 0.94

00:40:42.300 seem to be

00:40:42.860 pretty happy

00:40:43.500 with war

00:40:44.500 the way it

00:40:44.960 is,

00:40:45.440 so I'm

00:40:46.620 not expecting

00:40:47.320 the powerful

00:40:49.500 people in

00:40:50.060 Ukraine,

00:40:50.640 the most

00:40:51.000 corrupt place

00:40:52.020 on earth.

00:40:55.000 What's that?

00:40:58.940 All right.

00:41:02.740 Let's see.

00:41:04.860 Netanyahu,

00:41:07.140 who, like I

00:41:07.900 said, is in

00:41:08.400 the U.S.,

00:41:09.500 said that any

00:41:10.520 future Palestinian

00:41:11.720 state would

00:41:12.840 become a

00:41:13.300 launchpad for

00:41:13.960 attacks on

00:41:14.600 Israel, so 1.00

00:41:15.260 in other

00:41:15.580 words, Netanyahu

00:41:17.000 is saying that

00:41:17.820 there will not

00:41:18.300 be a

00:41:19.820 Palestinian

00:41:20.900 two-state

00:41:22.000 solution,

00:41:23.820 and that

00:41:25.020 probably is

00:41:26.740 what the

00:41:28.080 other Middle 0.88

00:41:28.880 East countries

00:41:29.500 are looking

00:41:29.940 for as

00:41:31.340 their trigger

00:41:32.360 to join the

00:41:33.460 Abraham Accords,

00:41:34.860 So, if the

00:41:36.200 main thing is

00:41:37.940 they want a

00:41:38.380 two-state

00:41:38.820 solution, and

00:41:41.080 that's the one

00:41:41.780 thing that

00:41:42.180 Netanyahu says

00:41:43.060 nope, how

00:41:44.840 could you ever

00:41:45.640 get to a

00:41:46.540 solution?

00:41:48.620 Well, maybe

00:41:51.480 somebody has

00:41:52.080 some blackmail

00:41:52.800 on Netanyahu.

00:41:55.240 We might find

00:41:56.480 out.

00:41:57.360 We'll see if he

00:41:58.380 gets flexible.

00:41:59.160 But at the

00:42:00.080 moment, he's

00:42:00.940 saying no to

00:42:01.640 a future

00:42:02.340 Palestinian state.

00:42:04.960 But would

00:42:05.880 that rule

00:42:06.440 out the

00:42:08.440 Emirates? 0.91

00:42:09.760 Remember I

00:42:10.280 told you that

00:42:10.960 there were

00:42:11.660 some people

00:42:13.300 in the West

00:42:13.800 Bank who

00:42:14.220 wanted to

00:42:14.580 create an

00:42:15.100 emirate.

00:42:16.240 So it

00:42:16.720 wouldn't be

00:42:17.100 the entire

00:42:17.620 West Bank.

00:42:18.980 It would

00:42:19.300 just be like

00:42:20.120 one city,

00:42:20.900 but there

00:42:21.360 could be

00:42:21.700 other

00:42:22.020 Emirates 0.94

00:42:22.440 and other

00:42:22.840 cities.

00:42:23.220 So what

00:42:24.480 would happen

00:42:24.920 if it's

00:42:26.360 not a

00:42:26.740 two-state

00:42:27.280 solution,

00:42:28.280 but it's

00:42:29.220 like one

00:42:29.860 state plus

00:42:30.840 half a dozen

00:42:32.660 Emirates? 0.91

00:42:34.520 Would that

00:42:35.220 give everybody

00:42:36.080 enough of

00:42:36.640 what they

00:42:36.920 wanted?

00:42:37.760 So if you

00:42:38.620 wanted to

00:42:39.200 live in an

00:42:39.640 emirate,

00:42:40.980 there would

00:42:41.400 be one

00:42:41.840 nearby,

00:42:42.440 you could

00:42:42.720 move to

00:42:43.080 it.

00:42:44.160 And if

00:42:44.780 you wanted

00:42:45.120 to live

00:42:45.720 in a

00:42:46.760 non-two-state

00:42:48.420 solution and

00:42:49.260 just stay

00:42:50.000 under Israel's 0.87

00:42:50.880 rule,

00:42:51.800 you'd have

00:42:52.260 the option

00:42:52.680 of doing

00:42:53.000 it.

00:42:54.060 So could

00:42:55.260 that be

00:42:55.920 a partial

00:42:57.420 solution?

00:42:59.720 I don't

00:43:00.460 know.

00:43:01.140 I doubt

00:43:01.640 it.

00:43:02.280 I mean,

00:43:03.040 I'd bet

00:43:04.260 against it,

00:43:05.600 but at

00:43:05.940 least it's

00:43:06.300 new.

00:43:08.040 Let's talk

00:43:08.860 about the

00:43:09.520 midterms.

00:43:12.640 And so

00:43:13.940 the current,

00:43:15.120 the smart

00:43:15.560 people say

00:43:16.160 that the

00:43:16.520 Republicans

00:43:16.980 will probably

00:43:17.820 keep the

00:43:18.440 Senate.

00:43:19.120 I don't

00:43:19.580 know with

00:43:19.980 what kind

00:43:20.400 of majority,

00:43:21.640 but they

00:43:22.240 might lose

00:43:22.660 the House,

00:43:23.100 because that

00:43:23.760 would be a

00:43:24.780 typical

00:43:25.180 situation for

00:43:26.500 a midterm.

00:43:27.560 So usually

00:43:28.180 the party

00:43:30.140 in power,

00:43:31.140 the one that

00:43:31.540 has the

00:43:31.880 president,

00:43:32.960 usually loses

00:43:34.020 seats in

00:43:35.440 the midterm

00:43:36.140 election.

00:43:36.880 Republicans.

00:43:37.880 So what are the

00:43:40.340 Democrats using

00:43:41.340 for messaging

00:43:42.080 and what are

00:43:42.980 the Republicans?

00:43:44.420 Well, if you're

00:43:46.080 a Republican,

00:43:46.980 here's the bad

00:43:47.660 news.

00:43:48.860 The Democrats

00:43:49.880 have a much

00:43:50.640 better message for

00:43:51.560 the midterms.

00:43:52.260 Democrats.

00:43:53.260 Because if they

00:43:53.920 keep it simple,

00:43:55.360 which so far

00:43:56.080 they are,

00:43:57.220 they say

00:43:57.740 stuff like,

00:43:59.260 Trump is

00:43:59.960 going to

00:44:00.320 cut your

00:44:00.960 health care,

00:44:01.940 or he has,

00:44:03.440 with the

00:44:03.800 big beautiful

00:44:04.340 bill,

00:44:05.220 cutting your

00:44:05.860 health care

00:44:07.260 to give

00:44:08.840 tax breaks

00:44:09.860 to the rich.

00:44:11.520 Now,

00:44:12.520 is that

00:44:13.100 technically

00:44:13.740 true?

00:44:15.840 Sort of,

00:44:16.840 because he's

00:44:18.720 definitely

00:44:19.080 cutting some

00:44:20.240 health care

00:44:20.740 benefits for

00:44:21.700 millions of

00:44:22.940 people.

00:44:23.800 Now he has

00:44:24.440 reasons,

00:44:25.580 and the reasons

00:44:26.260 are pretty darn

00:44:27.000 good,

00:44:27.900 which is

00:44:28.580 either you

00:44:29.560 didn't qualify

00:44:31.120 for those

00:44:31.740 benefits,

00:44:32.340 but you were

00:44:32.760 getting them,

00:44:33.600 or you

00:44:34.280 weren't working,

00:44:35.120 or you

00:44:35.320 weren't adding

00:44:37.180 to the country

00:44:37.900 in any way.

00:44:39.120 So the

00:44:40.000 Republicans have

00:44:40.760 an argument,

00:44:42.320 but it's

00:44:43.060 sort of an

00:44:43.840 unwieldy

00:44:44.660 multi-point

00:44:45.540 argument.

00:44:46.020 It's not

00:44:46.820 the kind

00:44:47.200 that moves

00:44:47.680 anybody.

00:44:49.200 Whereas the

00:44:50.200 Democrats have

00:44:50.920 a nice,

00:44:51.640 tight little

00:44:52.100 message that

00:44:53.760 although you

00:44:54.340 could argue,

00:44:55.020 well, you've

00:44:56.260 exaggerated the

00:44:57.300 impact of this

00:44:58.160 to the point

00:44:59.200 where it

00:45:00.400 might be a

00:45:01.000 little bit

00:45:01.480 technically true

00:45:02.480 that rich

00:45:03.000 people got a

00:45:03.620 tax break,

00:45:04.920 and that

00:45:05.420 health care

00:45:06.360 got cut,

00:45:07.760 but it's

00:45:08.180 not exactly

00:45:09.380 true that it

00:45:10.260 was cut for

00:45:11.060 the purpose

00:45:11.600 of tax

00:45:13.060 breaks.

00:45:14.300 But it

00:45:15.000 doesn't matter.

00:45:16.020 What matters

00:45:16.880 is what

00:45:17.920 will Democrats

00:45:18.780 think,

00:45:19.880 and will

00:45:20.400 they adopt

00:45:21.020 that messaging

00:45:21.700 in their own

00:45:22.380 brains as

00:45:23.020 their own

00:45:23.360 opinion?

00:45:24.460 And they

00:45:24.860 will,

00:45:25.740 because it's

00:45:26.260 tight and

00:45:27.620 it's easy

00:45:28.280 to remember.

00:45:29.540 They cut

00:45:30.120 your health

00:45:30.660 care to

00:45:32.020 give tax

00:45:32.860 breaks to

00:45:33.480 the rich.

00:45:35.040 That is a

00:45:36.200 Trumpian level

00:45:37.400 framing.

00:45:39.380 Now, the

00:45:40.220 good news for

00:45:40.840 them is that

00:45:41.440 they didn't have

00:45:41.920 to think about

00:45:42.600 it.

00:45:42.780 it was

00:45:43.200 just sort

00:45:43.560 of in

00:45:43.800 their

00:45:43.980 laps.

00:45:46.020 But that's

00:45:46.880 tough to

00:45:47.300 beat.

00:45:48.120 Now, let's

00:45:48.820 take what

00:45:49.460 the Republican

00:45:51.120 take is.

00:45:53.680 They're going

00:45:54.120 to say,

00:45:54.800 we gave

00:45:55.640 you no

00:45:56.940 tax on

00:45:57.600 tips.

00:45:59.740 First of

00:46:00.500 all, how

00:46:01.840 many people

00:46:02.400 who work for

00:46:03.140 tips actually

00:46:04.080 vote?

00:46:05.660 Well, it's

00:46:06.460 probably not the

00:46:07.260 most voting

00:46:08.180 public.

00:46:08.760 I would

00:46:10.040 guess that

00:46:10.520 people who

00:46:10.960 work for

00:46:11.360 tips are

00:46:12.880 probably the

00:46:13.680 least likely

00:46:14.660 to vote in

00:46:15.200 the first

00:46:15.500 place.

00:46:16.280 But, suppose

00:46:17.680 I worked for

00:46:18.680 tips and I

00:46:19.740 really appreciated

00:46:20.560 it.

00:46:21.500 I would say,

00:46:22.760 well, I already

00:46:23.540 have that.

00:46:25.080 You're not

00:46:25.760 promising me

00:46:26.600 anything.

00:46:27.520 I already have

00:46:28.440 that because it

00:46:29.200 already passed.

00:46:30.100 I'm already not

00:46:30.880 being taxed on

00:46:31.560 tips.

00:46:31.960 So, I don't

00:46:32.480 need to vote

00:46:33.080 for you because

00:46:35.120 I'm not going to

00:46:35.760 get anything new.

00:46:36.600 I already have

00:46:37.080 that.

00:46:38.760 Suppose they

00:46:39.640 say no tax

00:46:41.000 and overtime.

00:46:41.840 Same thing.

00:46:42.960 I don't need

00:46:43.860 to vote for

00:46:44.680 the Republicans

00:46:45.320 to get that

00:46:46.220 because they

00:46:47.200 already gave

00:46:47.660 it to me.

00:46:49.080 So, what's

00:46:50.540 my reason to

00:46:51.140 vote?

00:46:52.220 To get the

00:46:53.240 things I already

00:46:53.820 have?

00:46:55.360 Because they

00:46:56.180 wouldn't really

00:46:56.720 feel like they

00:46:57.320 would lose

00:46:57.740 those things.

00:46:58.680 I mean, it'd

00:46:59.000 be pretty hard

00:46:59.600 for the Democrats

00:47:00.540 to take it

00:47:01.120 away because

00:47:02.820 that would be

00:47:03.160 so unpopular.

00:47:05.040 So, the

00:47:07.500 Republicans have

00:47:08.580 what would be

00:47:09.600 a logical,

00:47:11.140 strong argument

00:47:12.080 for a rational

00:47:13.240 public.

00:47:14.460 But we don't

00:47:15.320 have a rational

00:47:16.000 public that's

00:47:16.740 really paying

00:47:17.240 attention.

00:47:18.380 So, they don't

00:47:19.300 really have a

00:47:19.940 message they

00:47:20.480 can sell.

00:47:22.300 They have a

00:47:23.960 laundry list of

00:47:24.840 things they say

00:47:25.580 they got right.

00:47:27.420 But that doesn't

00:47:28.280 really get you

00:47:29.020 elected.

00:47:30.020 You're going to

00:47:30.420 need to scare

00:47:31.200 somebody and

00:47:32.820 ideally have a

00:47:33.860 visual element

00:47:35.220 to your persuasion.

00:47:36.680 It should be

00:47:37.260 repeatable.

00:47:37.980 It should be

00:47:38.720 brief, like

00:47:39.760 build the wall.

00:47:41.640 They don't

00:47:42.240 have that.

00:47:44.280 So, we'll

00:47:45.440 see if Trump

00:47:46.200 can solve

00:47:47.380 that by

00:47:48.600 coming up

00:47:49.120 with a

00:47:49.540 framing and

00:47:50.320 a messaging

00:47:52.160 that's got the

00:47:53.020 right bite to

00:47:54.080 it and that's

00:47:55.140 memorable and

00:47:55.980 maybe it rhymes

00:47:56.820 and, you know,

00:47:58.080 it hits people

00:47:58.800 in the fields.

00:47:59.500 and I would

00:48:04.680 argue that

00:48:05.360 one of the

00:48:06.740 driving forces

00:48:07.500 for Republicans

00:48:08.280 is reducing

00:48:09.440 the debt.

00:48:11.940 But try

00:48:12.740 selling that

00:48:13.440 to the public.

00:48:15.040 If you could

00:48:15.960 sell the idea

00:48:16.860 of reducing

00:48:17.600 the budget

00:48:18.300 or at least

00:48:19.200 not letting it

00:48:20.000 grow as fast,

00:48:21.660 if that were

00:48:22.540 even sellable,

00:48:24.800 somebody would

00:48:25.640 have sold it

00:48:26.180 already.

00:48:26.540 In other

00:48:27.340 words, we

00:48:27.780 would already

00:48:28.240 have leaders

00:48:28.840 who had been

00:48:30.140 brought into

00:48:30.640 office because

00:48:31.260 they would cut

00:48:31.780 the deficit.

00:48:32.980 But nobody

00:48:33.980 really believes

00:48:34.840 the Republicans

00:48:36.260 are going to

00:48:36.800 cut the deficit

00:48:37.500 at this point.

00:48:38.680 It just

00:48:39.360 doesn't seem

00:48:39.880 real.

00:48:40.200 And so

00:48:42.000 they're not

00:48:42.440 going to get

00:48:42.740 any votes

00:48:43.100 for that.

00:48:44.960 So

00:48:45.480 there is

00:48:46.320 a real

00:48:46.840 problem

00:48:48.140 right now.

00:48:49.000 Trump

00:48:49.260 could solve

00:48:49.840 it because

00:48:51.520 he's the

00:48:52.040 messaging king.

00:48:53.340 But at the

00:48:53.980 moment,

00:48:54.680 they really

00:48:55.160 don't have

00:48:55.560 anything to

00:48:56.140 sell.

00:48:57.440 So

00:48:57.960 that's a

00:48:58.360 problem.

00:49:01.640 There's a

00:49:02.300 report,

00:49:03.020 Fox News

00:49:03.740 Digital has

00:49:04.500 this,

00:49:05.360 that Democrats,

00:49:07.320 the elected

00:49:08.900 Democrats,

00:49:10.200 say that

00:49:11.060 their followers

00:49:13.200 are demanding

00:49:14.020 more violence.

00:49:16.560 Quote,

00:49:17.080 our own

00:49:17.540 base is

00:49:18.620 telling us

00:49:19.200 that what

00:49:20.760 we're doing

00:49:21.220 is not good

00:49:21.920 enough.

00:49:22.640 There needs

00:49:23.220 to be blood

00:49:23.920 to grab the

00:49:24.580 attention of

00:49:25.120 the press

00:49:25.500 and the

00:49:25.780 public,

00:49:26.540 one lawmaker 0.90

00:49:27.320 said.

00:49:29.000 But it's

00:49:29.760 more than

00:49:30.060 one lawmaker. 0.98

00:49:31.100 Another

00:49:31.380 said,

00:49:32.580 their constituents

00:49:33.360 are convinced

00:49:34.320 that quote,

00:49:35.980 civility isn't

00:49:37.020 working and

00:49:38.440 that they

00:49:38.760 should prepare

00:49:39.700 for quote,

00:49:40.580 violence to

00:49:41.760 fight to

00:49:42.220 protect our

00:49:42.780 democracy.

00:49:45.560 And a

00:49:46.200 third one

00:49:46.660 said that

00:49:47.780 some of the

00:49:48.160 messages coming

00:49:48.960 in from people

00:49:49.780 online are

00:49:50.700 crazy shit

00:49:52.100 and some of

00:49:54.120 them told

00:49:54.500 them to storm

00:49:55.200 the White

00:49:55.580 House and

00:49:56.100 stuff like

00:49:56.620 that.

00:49:57.780 Now, I

00:49:59.120 don't feel

00:49:59.620 like that's

00:50:00.240 the majority

00:50:00.840 of Democrats.

00:50:02.160 It's probably

00:50:02.580 just the

00:50:03.060 extremists.

00:50:04.500 And wouldn't

00:50:05.320 you assume

00:50:05.900 that Republicans

00:50:07.340 also get a

00:50:08.340 bunch of

00:50:08.700 extremists

00:50:09.500 whenever things

00:50:11.020 are not going

00:50:11.580 their way?

00:50:12.780 Don't you

00:50:13.220 think the

00:50:13.780 extremists

00:50:14.960 online

00:50:15.660 started saying

00:50:17.200 stuff like,

00:50:18.320 well, it's

00:50:18.780 time to,

00:50:19.840 you know,

00:50:20.320 get your

00:50:20.880 Second Amendment

00:50:21.600 involved?

00:50:22.960 So I

00:50:23.820 wouldn't worry

00:50:24.280 too much

00:50:25.000 if the

00:50:26.040 losing team

00:50:26.900 is talking

00:50:27.440 about,

00:50:28.540 well, maybe

00:50:29.080 we should get

00:50:29.520 a little violent

00:50:30.180 because I

00:50:30.960 feel like

00:50:31.320 there's always

00:50:31.920 going to be

00:50:32.300 an extremist

00:50:33.100 who says

00:50:33.520 that,

00:50:34.500 depending on

00:50:35.060 which team

00:50:35.580 looks like

00:50:36.840 he's losing

00:50:37.300 at the

00:50:37.620 moment.

00:50:39.320 Anyway,

00:50:41.220 so Trump

00:50:43.160 with his

00:50:43.840 tariffs,

00:50:45.120 he's sending

00:50:45.560 out the

00:50:46.000 letters telling

00:50:46.600 people what

00:50:47.100 they're going

00:50:47.400 to pay,

00:50:48.400 but they've

00:50:49.260 got to

00:50:49.660 August 1st

00:50:51.080 if they

00:50:51.900 want to

00:50:52.260 still try

00:50:52.740 to rush

00:50:53.900 through with

00:50:54.400 their proper

00:50:55.100 trade deal.

00:50:56.940 So stock

00:50:57.960 market seems

00:50:59.120 to have

00:50:59.520 absorbed it,

00:51:00.180 and stocks

00:51:02.460 were down

00:51:03.200 yesterday a

00:51:03.940 little bit,

00:51:04.540 but they're

00:51:04.860 up today.

00:51:06.020 So it

00:51:06.540 looks like

00:51:06.920 the stock

00:51:07.440 market

00:51:07.880 completely

00:51:08.980 understands

00:51:09.800 Trump and

00:51:10.540 his tariff

00:51:11.260 approach,

00:51:12.340 wouldn't you

00:51:12.800 say?

00:51:13.800 In April,

00:51:15.420 when the

00:51:15.820 stock market

00:51:16.500 just went

00:51:17.720 straight down

00:51:18.780 because what

00:51:20.620 Trump was

00:51:21.160 doing wasn't

00:51:22.840 transparent enough,

00:51:24.660 and if you

00:51:25.160 were an

00:51:25.420 investor,

00:51:25.960 you said,

00:51:26.340 I don't know

00:51:26.660 where this

00:51:27.040 is going,

00:51:28.020 but it

00:51:28.340 might be

00:51:28.700 really bad,

00:51:29.520 so I'm

00:51:30.280 going to

00:51:30.420 take a

00:51:30.760 pause and

00:51:31.260 take my

00:51:31.680 money out.

00:51:37.260 But at

00:51:38.680 the moment,

00:51:39.760 it appears

00:51:40.720 that the

00:51:41.200 market has

00:51:41.740 seen enough

00:51:42.220 back and

00:51:42.720 forth,

00:51:43.480 and they've

00:51:44.140 seen that

00:51:44.580 Trump is

00:51:45.060 willing to

00:51:45.520 use the

00:51:45.900 tariffs,

00:51:46.440 sometimes as

00:51:47.460 a trade

00:51:48.360 deal,

00:51:49.140 sometimes as

00:51:50.140 a lever,

00:51:50.560 and they

00:51:52.680 see that he

00:51:53.360 seems to

00:51:53.900 be using

00:51:54.320 it successfully.

00:51:56.240 For

00:51:56.620 example,

00:51:58.280 Canada

00:51:58.780 immediately

00:51:59.800 removed its

00:52:00.760 tax on

00:52:02.320 our digital

00:52:03.420 platforms

00:52:04.080 because he

00:52:05.980 threatened

00:52:06.360 tariff.

00:52:07.920 So now

00:52:08.960 when he

00:52:09.440 says it's

00:52:09.940 a weapon,

00:52:11.160 people can

00:52:11.780 go, oh,

00:52:12.480 okay, yeah,

00:52:13.660 it is a

00:52:14.120 weapon, and

00:52:14.800 he used it

00:52:15.400 and it

00:52:15.620 worked right

00:52:16.660 away.

00:52:16.940 And they

00:52:18.300 can also

00:52:18.760 say, now

00:52:19.980 that there's

00:52:20.460 a bunch of

00:52:20.880 money coming

00:52:21.460 in from

00:52:21.940 tariffs, which

00:52:23.060 by the way,

00:52:24.040 is paid by

00:52:24.800 the American

00:52:25.580 company,

00:52:27.960 more so than

00:52:29.160 it would be

00:52:29.540 paid by the

00:52:30.320 foreign

00:52:30.800 company, but

00:52:32.460 the revenue

00:52:34.700 is way up.

00:52:38.000 So now

00:52:39.200 if you

00:52:39.600 wondered if

00:52:40.520 there could

00:52:41.160 be a lot

00:52:41.660 of tariff

00:52:42.180 revenue,

00:52:43.340 the answer

00:52:43.700 is yes.

00:52:44.440 If you

00:52:45.040 wondered if

00:52:45.880 there would

00:52:46.180 be a

00:52:46.620 screaming 0.51

00:52:47.700 increase in

00:52:48.900 inflation because

00:52:49.980 of tariffs,

00:52:51.160 there still

00:52:52.000 might be

00:52:52.480 some ahead,

00:52:53.740 but so

00:52:54.300 far, so

00:52:55.860 far, no.

00:52:58.080 And if

00:52:58.760 you wondered

00:52:59.460 if he could

00:53:00.000 use it as

00:53:00.620 a club

00:53:01.240 without it

00:53:03.200 being used

00:53:03.760 against us,

00:53:05.280 it kind

00:53:05.860 of looks

00:53:06.180 like it

00:53:06.560 can be.

00:53:08.160 So the

00:53:09.140 most important

00:53:10.720 claims that

00:53:11.620 Trump has

00:53:12.020 ever made

00:53:12.520 about this,

00:53:13.820 it won't

00:53:14.640 hurt your 0.73

00:53:15.100 inflation,

00:53:15.600 it will

00:53:16.740 have a

00:53:17.100 lot of

00:53:17.580 revenue

00:53:18.200 coming in

00:53:18.940 that we

00:53:19.500 wouldn't

00:53:19.740 have

00:53:19.940 otherwise,

00:53:21.380 at least

00:53:21.880 the government

00:53:22.400 wouldn't have

00:53:22.920 otherwise,

00:53:24.000 and it

00:53:25.940 would cause

00:53:26.600 repatriation

00:53:27.720 of our

00:53:28.140 companies.

00:53:29.060 We're seeing

00:53:29.420 that.

00:53:30.320 There are a

00:53:30.980 bunch of

00:53:31.320 examples.

00:53:32.760 And what

00:53:34.000 was the last

00:53:34.520 thing?

00:53:36.080 Oh, he

00:53:36.420 could use it

00:53:36.960 as a weapon

00:53:37.500 and get

00:53:38.920 away with

00:53:39.340 it.

00:53:39.580 so everything

00:53:43.660 that Trump

00:53:44.440 promised that

00:53:46.320 all seemed

00:53:47.100 unlikely and

00:53:48.480 dangerous,

00:53:49.960 every one of

00:53:51.480 them is true.

00:53:53.900 And so I

00:53:55.520 think the

00:53:55.880 market just

00:53:56.480 said, all

00:53:56.960 right, it

00:53:58.040 looks like you

00:53:58.700 can do all

00:53:59.580 these, let's

00:54:01.700 say, unclear

00:54:03.160 things with

00:54:04.000 tariffs because

00:54:05.080 you do know

00:54:05.660 what you're

00:54:05.940 doing.

00:54:06.160 And it

00:54:07.080 does look

00:54:07.520 like he's

00:54:08.000 going to

00:54:08.220 have 100

00:54:08.720 tariff

00:54:09.160 deals in

00:54:10.460 10 minutes

00:54:11.240 because the

00:54:12.720 deal is,

00:54:13.460 here's your

00:54:13.920 new price.

00:54:14.880 That's the

00:54:15.300 deal.

00:54:16.140 The deal is,

00:54:17.200 you did not

00:54:17.680 make a trade

00:54:18.280 deal with

00:54:18.720 us, so

00:54:19.820 we'll just

00:54:20.280 tell you what

00:54:20.740 that's going

00:54:21.140 to cost you.

00:54:22.080 Here's your

00:54:22.480 bill.

00:54:24.320 And indeed,

00:54:25.720 he's going to

00:54:26.260 have 100

00:54:26.700 trade deals

00:54:27.460 done this

00:54:28.100 week.

00:54:29.080 Well, you

00:54:29.600 could argue

00:54:30.040 they're already

00:54:30.540 done if he

00:54:31.080 sent out the

00:54:31.660 letters.

00:54:32.240 We're done.

00:54:33.480 Yep, here's

00:54:34.040 your bill.

00:54:35.200 Thanks for

00:54:35.980 nothing.

00:54:39.740 All right.

00:54:45.260 Apparently,

00:54:46.180 according to

00:54:47.120 Zero Hedge

00:54:47.820 and some

00:54:48.200 other people,

00:54:48.780 there was a

00:54:49.200 gunman who

00:54:50.520 ambushed some

00:54:51.360 border patrol

00:54:52.060 agents in

00:54:52.720 Texas.

00:54:54.920 And this

00:54:56.580 was in the

00:54:57.320 context of

00:54:58.060 all the

00:54:58.360 anti-ice

00:54:59.360 rhetoric from

00:55:01.040 Democrats.

00:55:02.280 Do you

00:55:02.680 think that

00:55:04.040 a gunman

00:55:04.660 would have

00:55:05.100 ambushed the

00:55:05.900 border patrol

00:55:06.600 agents in

00:55:07.300 Texas if

00:55:09.740 there had

00:55:10.120 not been so

00:55:10.760 much Democrat

00:55:11.560 messaging about

00:55:12.640 how bad

00:55:13.180 ICE is?

00:55:14.820 I don't.

00:55:17.000 People

00:55:17.520 wouldn't have

00:55:18.000 even thought

00:55:19.040 about it.

00:55:20.340 Because it

00:55:20.720 probably, I

00:55:21.660 don't know

00:55:22.260 yet, but

00:55:23.280 correct me if

00:55:24.060 I'm wrong,

00:55:24.960 but I don't

00:55:25.860 think it was

00:55:26.520 a migrant

00:55:27.320 that did the

00:55:28.060 shooting,

00:55:28.540 right?

00:55:28.740 I think it

00:55:30.380 was probably

00:55:30.840 an American

00:55:31.380 citizen who

00:55:32.320 thought, oh,

00:55:33.320 I've got to

00:55:33.680 help the

00:55:34.040 migrants.

00:55:35.900 I don't

00:55:36.620 know.

00:55:37.480 So maybe

00:55:38.260 you can tell

00:55:38.720 me in the

00:55:39.080 comments.

00:55:39.740 Was it an

00:55:40.320 American

00:55:40.620 citizen, the

00:55:42.500 guy who

00:55:42.880 shot the

00:55:43.600 border patrol?

00:55:46.440 Don't know.

00:55:47.260 But I would

00:55:49.960 argue that

00:55:51.460 as long as

00:55:54.120 the border

00:55:54.480 patrol is

00:55:55.220 being called

00:55:55.700 a bunch of

00:55:56.360 Nazis, that

00:55:58.260 you are

00:55:58.820 encouraging that

00:55:59.780 behavior.

00:56:00.900 So I

00:56:01.240 wouldn't take

00:56:01.660 my mask off

00:56:02.480 if I'm one

00:56:02.960 of those

00:56:03.240 guys.

00:56:03.540 I guess

00:56:09.220 there were

00:56:09.600 according to

00:56:11.040 End Wokeness

00:56:12.160 on X, I

00:56:13.120 saw End

00:56:14.200 Wokeness said 0.94

00:56:14.860 that there

00:56:15.720 were 11

00:56:16.220 far-left

00:56:16.880 extremists

00:56:17.840 just charged

00:56:19.180 in a major

00:56:19.700 terror plot to

00:56:20.580 kill ICE

00:56:21.000 agents in

00:56:21.600 Texas.

00:56:23.260 And End

00:56:24.160 Wokeness says

00:56:24.860 it's not

00:56:25.240 getting any

00:56:25.820 coverage.

00:56:26.960 Well, not

00:56:27.600 getting any

00:56:28.220 coverage might

00:56:29.080 mean that

00:56:30.240 some of the

00:56:30.700 news entities

00:56:31.440 don't know if

00:56:32.280 it's real

00:56:32.700 yet.

00:56:33.540 So I

00:56:34.500 would hold

00:56:34.960 my fire on

00:56:37.320 that one

00:56:37.740 until we

00:56:38.940 get some

00:56:39.480 confirmation.

00:56:43.520 Well, Tucker

00:56:44.360 Carlson had

00:56:45.560 his interview

00:56:46.160 with the

00:56:46.520 president of

00:56:47.060 Iran, and

00:56:48.300 you would

00:56:49.760 not be

00:56:50.280 surprised to

00:56:51.660 learn that

00:56:52.100 there's some

00:56:52.520 pushback to

00:56:53.120 that.

00:56:55.160 So I

00:56:55.940 guess when

00:56:56.400 you have an

00:56:56.860 interview with

00:56:57.620 somebody like

00:56:58.860 Putin or

00:56:59.620 the president

00:57:00.140 of Iran,

00:57:01.420 and Tucker's

00:57:02.480 done both,

00:57:03.540 if he just

00:57:04.640 lets them

00:57:05.160 talk and

00:57:06.880 doesn't push

00:57:07.580 them back

00:57:08.080 too hard,

00:57:09.080 it looks to

00:57:10.340 other people

00:57:10.880 like he's

00:57:11.460 just been a

00:57:12.240 propagandist

00:57:13.060 for an

00:57:14.460 enemy state.

00:57:15.360 I don't get

00:57:19.320 that vibe.

00:57:19.880 To me, it

00:57:21.560 seems like if

00:57:22.660 you could

00:57:23.020 score an

00:57:23.560 interview with

00:57:24.120 Putin, who

00:57:25.560 wouldn't do

00:57:26.060 that if

00:57:27.040 they're in

00:57:27.380 that business?

00:57:28.700 Is there

00:57:29.260 anybody who

00:57:29.780 wouldn't score

00:57:31.180 an interview

00:57:31.600 with Putin?

00:57:33.160 And probably

00:57:34.700 knowing that

00:57:36.000 he's not going

00:57:36.620 to push back

00:57:37.300 that hard

00:57:37.860 might be what

00:57:39.380 gets him

00:57:39.800 the deal.

00:57:40.260 maybe Putin

00:57:43.260 would say

00:57:43.860 that if

00:57:44.640 Megyn Kelly

00:57:45.580 asked him

00:57:46.160 for an

00:57:46.440 interview,

00:57:46.860 he might

00:57:47.140 say,

00:57:48.040 I don't

00:57:49.100 know, she

00:57:49.420 might push

00:57:49.880 me too

00:57:50.220 hard.

00:57:51.280 So I'm

00:57:51.540 going to

00:57:51.680 say no

00:57:52.100 to that

00:57:52.360 one.

00:57:54.660 As long

00:57:55.440 as you

00:57:55.740 know that

00:57:57.440 Putin or

00:57:58.760 the president

00:57:59.360 of Iran are

00:58:00.600 just giving

00:58:01.180 you an hour

00:58:02.140 worth of

00:58:02.760 their own

00:58:03.160 propaganda,

00:58:04.300 does that

00:58:04.920 hurt anything?

00:58:05.480 I guess it

00:58:07.960 might a little

00:58:08.460 bit, because

00:58:09.720 the documentary

00:58:10.940 effect that I

00:58:11.700 talk about all

00:58:12.360 the time, the

00:58:13.420 documentary effect

00:58:14.480 is if you're

00:58:15.140 one side of

00:58:15.940 anything, and

00:58:17.360 you don't hear

00:58:17.980 the counter

00:58:18.520 argument, and

00:58:20.160 you get an

00:58:20.720 hour of it

00:58:21.360 in a row, an

00:58:22.820 hour of one

00:58:23.880 side of any

00:58:24.560 argument is

00:58:25.920 really going to

00:58:26.660 be convincing.

00:58:28.760 There might be

00:58:29.620 a great

00:58:30.000 counter argument

00:58:30.800 that's even

00:58:31.320 stronger, but

00:58:32.020 if nobody

00:58:32.420 shows it to

00:58:33.080 you, an 0.86

00:58:34.140 hour of

00:58:34.840 propaganda,

00:58:35.480 that's going

00:58:35.860 to be

00:58:36.040 really

00:58:36.500 convincing.

00:58:37.760 So, there

00:58:38.520 is that

00:58:38.920 risk that

00:58:40.680 Tucker

00:58:41.560 platformed

00:58:42.480 to people

00:58:43.180 who would

00:58:44.580 be spreading

00:58:45.200 their BS

00:58:45.880 and people

00:58:46.360 would be

00:58:46.680 believing it.

00:58:48.460 But, isn't

00:58:49.820 that the

00:58:50.180 problem with

00:58:50.700 all free

00:58:51.140 speech?

00:58:53.000 So, I'm

00:58:53.880 going to go

00:58:54.380 full free

00:58:55.280 speech and

00:58:56.440 say, absolutely

00:58:57.780 Tucker should

00:58:58.540 talk to these

00:58:59.160 people, and

00:59:00.600 if not pushing

00:59:01.600 back is what

00:59:02.460 gets them to

00:59:03.060 say yes, as

00:59:05.140 long as we

00:59:05.620 know that, I

00:59:06.700 mean, you

00:59:07.780 can kind of

00:59:08.400 tell that

00:59:09.080 that's part of

00:59:10.480 the dynamic, I

00:59:13.020 wouldn't worry

00:59:13.460 about it too

00:59:13.920 much.

00:59:15.340 Yeah.

00:59:16.240 I feel like

00:59:17.520 even unsophisticated

00:59:19.660 viewers of the

00:59:20.480 news would look

00:59:21.900 at Putin and

00:59:22.680 say, well, I

00:59:23.640 don't know if

00:59:23.980 that guy is

00:59:24.440 telling me the

00:59:24.960 full truth.

00:59:25.500 I feel like

00:59:28.460 we would

00:59:28.880 know not

00:59:30.320 to automatically

00:59:31.300 believe the

00:59:31.900 president of

00:59:32.520 Iran right 0.99

00:59:33.680 after we

00:59:34.140 bombed him.

00:59:35.680 So, you

00:59:37.420 know, there's

00:59:38.120 definitely a

00:59:38.700 little bit of

00:59:39.140 negativity that

00:59:40.080 could come

00:59:40.520 from letting

00:59:41.640 the bad

00:59:42.080 guys have

00:59:42.660 an hour of

00:59:43.340 just giving

00:59:43.880 their point

00:59:44.480 of view.

00:59:45.660 But, free

00:59:47.280 speech.

00:59:48.560 I got to

00:59:49.340 go with the

00:59:49.760 free speech.

00:59:50.360 According to

00:59:57.660 the Washington

00:59:58.180 Free Beacon,

01:00:00.220 Biden's

01:00:01.060 advisors,

01:00:01.880 there's a

01:00:02.500 document that

01:00:03.280 shows this,

01:00:04.220 that Biden's

01:00:04.760 close advisors

01:00:05.760 pushed Biden

01:00:07.180 to debate

01:00:07.820 Trump as

01:00:08.400 early as

01:00:08.960 possible to

01:00:09.680 show strength.

01:00:11.700 Now,

01:00:13.300 the

01:00:13.680 reporting is

01:00:15.460 that his

01:00:16.580 advisors

01:00:17.220 believed that

01:00:18.740 he could show

01:00:19.500 strength

01:00:20.160 in a

01:00:20.960 debate.

01:00:22.920 I'm going

01:00:23.580 to read

01:00:23.940 you what

01:00:24.320 they said,

01:00:25.860 and to

01:00:26.320 me it

01:00:26.680 reads like

01:00:27.320 they definitely

01:00:28.540 know that

01:00:29.020 he's not

01:00:29.600 strong,

01:00:30.460 and that

01:00:31.220 it will

01:00:31.680 end his

01:00:32.460 campaign,

01:00:33.840 and that's

01:00:34.180 what they

01:00:34.520 wanted.

01:00:37.680 Here's some

01:00:38.600 of what that

01:00:39.140 letter that's

01:00:39.720 been uncovered

01:00:40.520 said.

01:00:41.220 This would be

01:00:41.640 a letter from

01:00:42.180 the advisors

01:00:42.740 to Biden

01:00:43.580 trying to

01:00:44.620 convince him

01:00:45.200 to do this

01:00:45.740 early debate.

01:00:50.160 Here's the

01:00:51.180 part.

01:00:51.540 The earlier

01:00:52.060 you are able

01:00:52.840 to debate

01:00:53.540 the better.

01:00:54.320 Now,

01:00:54.580 this is just

01:00:55.100 a conclusion

01:00:56.040 of a longer

01:00:56.800 letter.

01:00:57.720 The earlier

01:00:58.160 you are able

01:00:58.920 to debate

01:00:59.360 the better,

01:01:00.080 the memo

01:01:00.520 goes on,

01:01:01.360 so that the

01:01:02.220 American people

01:01:02.980 can see you

01:01:04.080 standing next

01:01:04.880 to Trump

01:01:05.400 and showing

01:01:06.340 the strength

01:01:07.040 of your

01:01:07.440 leadership

01:01:07.920 compared to

01:01:09.080 Trump's

01:01:09.460 weakness

01:01:09.900 and chaos.

01:01:12.660 Now,

01:01:13.500 do you think

01:01:14.280 they really

01:01:14.700 talk like that

01:01:15.560 in person?

01:01:17.440 I understand

01:01:18.580 why when the

01:01:19.740 Democrats go

01:01:20.600 on CNN,

01:01:21.880 they say,

01:01:22.720 Trump,

01:01:23.060 oh,

01:01:23.340 he's chaos,

01:01:24.160 he's full

01:01:24.560 of chaos,

01:01:25.640 but privately

01:01:27.860 they know

01:01:29.480 that doesn't

01:01:30.020 mean anything,

01:01:30.720 right?

01:01:32.120 Why would

01:01:32.980 you say

01:01:33.420 that to

01:01:35.340 Biden?

01:01:36.960 Do they

01:01:37.720 think Biden

01:01:38.300 was so out

01:01:39.120 of it that

01:01:40.180 he would be

01:01:40.760 sold by,

01:01:42.020 well,

01:01:42.780 once we put

01:01:43.460 your strength

01:01:44.200 next to

01:01:44.940 Trump's

01:01:45.480 chaos,

01:01:46.620 it almost

01:01:47.680 feels like

01:01:48.440 it's tongue

01:01:49.020 in cheek,

01:01:50.320 right?

01:01:52.260 Now,

01:01:52.800 I'm not

01:01:53.080 saying it

01:01:53.540 is,

01:01:54.240 because they

01:01:54.660 wouldn't write

01:01:55.240 a tongue

01:01:55.780 in cheek

01:01:56.200 memo to

01:01:57.040 the president

01:01:58.560 and put it

01:01:59.200 in writing

01:01:59.640 and all that,

01:02:00.340 so it's not

01:02:00.940 tongue in

01:02:01.380 cheek,

01:02:02.380 but does

01:02:02.900 it feel

01:02:03.340 like what

01:02:05.340 close advisors

01:02:06.460 would really

01:02:07.240 say?

01:02:08.640 It doesn't.

01:02:10.480 To me,

01:02:11.180 there's something

01:02:11.640 about that

01:02:12.160 wording that

01:02:13.380 almost is

01:02:14.140 like a

01:02:14.560 signal,

01:02:16.140 maybe to

01:02:16.960 historians in

01:02:18.880 the future

01:02:19.320 or something,

01:02:20.160 it feels like

01:02:20.840 it's a signal

01:02:21.600 that they

01:02:22.620 don't really

01:02:23.120 mean it.

01:02:24.480 Because who

01:02:24.940 in the world

01:02:25.520 would have

01:02:25.860 said that

01:02:26.440 when they

01:02:27.040 know that

01:02:27.920 Biden was

01:02:29.480 just decomposing

01:02:30.540 right in front

01:02:31.060 of them at

01:02:31.480 that time?

01:02:32.580 Would they

01:02:32.960 really say

01:02:33.620 showing the

01:02:35.980 strength of

01:02:36.620 your leadership

01:02:37.300 compared to

01:02:38.000 Trump's

01:02:38.320 weakness

01:02:38.780 and chaos?

01:02:40.960 Did they

01:02:41.680 really think

01:02:42.260 that Trump

01:02:42.700 would look

01:02:43.140 weak in

01:02:44.560 a debate?

01:02:45.820 They've

01:02:46.380 watched Trump

01:02:47.060 debate.

01:02:48.640 You could

01:02:49.340 say he won

01:02:50.000 the debate

01:02:50.460 or he lost,

01:02:51.200 but whoever

01:02:52.420 said that

01:02:53.020 Trump looked

01:02:53.500 weak in

01:02:54.140 a debate?

01:02:57.100 None of

01:02:57.760 this looks

01:02:58.380 genuine.

01:03:01.540 It just

01:03:02.160 looks almost

01:03:02.780 like they

01:03:03.400 were playing

01:03:03.780 a prank on

01:03:04.560 him or

01:03:04.800 something.

01:03:05.600 They

01:03:05.800 weren't.

01:03:07.480 But anyway,

01:03:09.040 I've told you

01:03:09.540 before that

01:03:11.300 one of the

01:03:11.880 things you

01:03:12.260 learn when

01:03:12.980 you study

01:03:13.940 to become

01:03:14.400 a hypnotist,

01:03:15.140 or at least

01:03:15.460 I did,

01:03:16.300 is that

01:03:17.120 people choose

01:03:18.040 their words

01:03:18.760 in a way

01:03:20.180 that reveals

01:03:20.960 what they

01:03:21.500 really think

01:03:22.200 on the

01:03:22.500 inside,

01:03:22.980 even if

01:03:23.360 they're not

01:03:23.680 telling you

01:03:24.080 that.

01:03:25.020 And when

01:03:25.300 I say

01:03:25.600 their choice

01:03:26.180 of words

01:03:26.740 to go

01:03:27.240 for the

01:03:27.580 stupid 0.75

01:03:28.140 show your

01:03:29.580 strength

01:03:30.060 compared to

01:03:30.680 his chaos

01:03:31.540 in a private

01:03:32.880 memo that

01:03:33.740 was not

01:03:34.200 for public

01:03:35.560 consumption,

01:03:37.360 to me

01:03:37.900 that's

01:03:40.180 revealing

01:03:40.660 an internal

01:03:41.680 thought.

01:03:45.300 So I

01:03:46.260 might be

01:03:46.580 reading too

01:03:47.140 much into

01:03:47.660 it, but

01:03:48.100 there you

01:03:48.840 go.

01:03:51.600 Well,

01:03:51.940 Jack Dorsey,

01:03:52.940 who you

01:03:53.760 know as

01:03:54.300 the founder

01:03:56.480 of Twitter,

01:03:58.020 he has a

01:03:58.700 new app.

01:04:00.480 He's also

01:04:01.220 a big part

01:04:03.360 of the

01:04:03.620 Cash app.

01:04:04.460 I guess

01:04:04.760 he'd be

01:04:05.040 a founder

01:04:05.460 of the

01:04:05.800 Cash app.

01:04:07.100 He just

01:04:07.840 released a

01:04:08.560 new app

01:04:09.160 that uses

01:04:09.840 Bluetooth,

01:04:10.660 but not

01:04:11.060 the internet.

01:04:12.260 So it

01:04:12.880 doesn't go

01:04:13.300 over the

01:04:13.580 internet,

01:04:14.020 it just

01:04:14.200 goes Bluetooth

01:04:14.780 to Bluetooth,

01:04:16.000 and it's

01:04:16.660 called

01:04:17.040 BitChat. 1.00

01:04:20.260 And so

01:04:20.940 you don't

01:04:21.280 need cell

01:04:21.820 service,

01:04:22.720 and you

01:04:23.080 don't need

01:04:23.460 the internet.

01:04:24.500 It just

01:04:25.040 goes over

01:04:25.520 Bluetooth,

01:04:26.220 so obviously

01:04:26.880 it's only

01:04:27.420 going to

01:04:27.900 work in the

01:04:28.380 same room.

01:04:30.660 But here's

01:04:31.480 the funny

01:04:31.840 part.

01:04:32.940 The name

01:04:33.720 of it is

01:04:34.400 BitChat. 1.00

01:04:37.000 B-I-T-C-H-A-T. 1.00

01:04:41.380 It's also

01:04:42.200 could be

01:04:44.200 pronounced

01:04:44.720 Bitch-At. 1.00

01:04:47.760 Did he do

01:04:48.640 that intentionally?

01:04:49.400 I don't

01:04:52.380 know if he

01:04:52.740 did that

01:04:53.140 intentionally,

01:04:54.020 because if

01:04:55.380 it's a way

01:04:56.000 to communicate,

01:04:58.260 you're usually

01:04:58.980 bitching at 1.00

01:04:59.600 people.

01:05:01.500 So it's

01:05:02.880 brilliant,

01:05:04.280 or if

01:05:05.760 it's true

01:05:06.200 that nobody

01:05:06.680 thought of

01:05:07.220 that second

01:05:07.760 way to

01:05:08.580 conceptualize

01:05:10.180 it, that

01:05:11.400 would be

01:05:11.700 weird.

01:05:13.160 But

01:05:13.420 Bitch-At. 1.00

01:05:15.440 It's

01:05:15.960 out there.

01:05:16.340 Well,

01:05:19.280 Zion 0.77

01:05:19.620 Tree,

01:05:20.380 who's an

01:05:21.580 activist in

01:05:22.400 the nuclear

01:05:23.200 power

01:05:23.860 domain,

01:05:26.440 tells us

01:05:27.080 that in

01:05:28.080 Germany,

01:05:29.060 their

01:05:29.180 nuclear

01:05:29.780 power

01:05:31.600 provided

01:05:32.060 nearly 30%

01:05:33.120 of Germany's

01:05:33.860 electricity

01:05:34.440 in the

01:05:35.400 90s.

01:05:36.660 Now that's

01:05:37.340 been reduced

01:05:37.900 to zero

01:05:38.460 because of

01:05:39.740 the activists

01:05:41.220 who didn't

01:05:42.100 like nuclear.

01:05:43.600 So now

01:05:44.040 that they're

01:05:45.300 nuclear

01:05:47.400 power is

01:05:47.980 going from

01:05:48.340 30% to

01:05:49.200 zero,

01:05:50.840 if they

01:05:52.520 had not

01:05:52.900 done that

01:05:53.500 and they

01:05:54.000 just kept

01:05:54.620 the power

01:05:55.020 plants they

01:05:55.560 had,

01:05:56.760 they would

01:05:58.520 be using

01:05:59.020 no coal

01:05:59.660 whatsoever.

01:06:01.120 But at

01:06:01.520 the moment,

01:06:03.000 using a lot

01:06:03.600 of coal.

01:06:04.620 So,

01:06:05.600 has nuclear

01:06:06.760 energy proven

01:06:07.680 that it's

01:06:08.260 the better

01:06:08.660 way than

01:06:09.220 getting rid

01:06:09.900 of nuclear

01:06:10.400 energy?

01:06:11.300 I believe

01:06:12.060 it has.

01:06:13.800 Meanwhile,

01:06:14.180 over at

01:06:14.800 Politico,

01:06:15.860 Politico is

01:06:16.920 complaining in

01:06:18.520 an article

01:06:18.960 that Democrats

01:06:20.180 have, quote,

01:06:21.000 retreated on

01:06:22.140 climate and

01:06:24.200 that it's a

01:06:24.920 disappointing

01:06:25.560 turnabout.

01:06:27.720 Remember I

01:06:28.480 told you just

01:06:29.300 the other day

01:06:29.980 that it seems

01:06:31.460 like the

01:06:32.040 conversation about

01:06:33.280 climate change

01:06:34.220 just sort of

01:06:34.960 got really

01:06:36.200 quiet all of

01:06:37.060 a sudden?

01:06:38.460 Well,

01:06:38.800 I would

01:06:41.460 summarize the

01:06:42.140 reason for

01:06:42.600 that.

01:06:43.320 It's because

01:06:43.940 affordability

01:06:44.880 is a better

01:06:46.460 message than

01:06:47.580 climate fear.

01:06:50.020 So,

01:06:50.620 I guess people

01:06:51.380 weren't buying

01:06:51.980 the climate

01:06:52.480 change argument.

01:06:53.580 It wasn't

01:06:54.340 moving any

01:06:55.420 elections.

01:06:56.900 But affordability

01:06:57.960 really hits

01:06:59.100 people right in

01:06:59.940 the heart and

01:07:01.580 the wallet at

01:07:02.140 the same time.

01:07:02.780 so if the

01:07:04.660 Democrats are

01:07:05.300 being smart,

01:07:07.220 they are

01:07:07.820 phasing out

01:07:08.660 their

01:07:08.880 complaining about

01:07:09.820 climate because

01:07:11.380 I guess,

01:07:12.500 you know,

01:07:12.880 if it goes

01:07:13.380 long enough,

01:07:14.800 people are

01:07:15.260 going to see

01:07:15.660 it didn't,

01:07:16.460 the predictions

01:07:17.120 didn't work

01:07:17.800 out.

01:07:18.100 And I

01:07:24.020 think we're

01:07:24.380 there.

01:07:25.320 So,

01:07:25.760 there's

01:07:26.200 enough

01:07:26.460 counter

01:07:27.100 information

01:07:27.760 about

01:07:28.360 temperature

01:07:29.440 and all

01:07:31.060 that that

01:07:31.780 I just

01:07:33.420 don't know

01:07:33.820 that the

01:07:34.140 climate story

01:07:35.340 is believable

01:07:36.220 anymore.

01:07:37.920 But

01:07:38.180 affordability

01:07:39.020 certainly is

01:07:39.980 believable.

01:07:41.180 You tell

01:07:41.620 people that

01:07:42.240 things are

01:07:42.680 hard to

01:07:43.060 afford and

01:07:43.700 you're going

01:07:44.080 to help,

01:07:44.960 that's pretty

01:07:45.860 activated.

01:07:46.420 so it

01:07:47.900 makes sense

01:07:48.520 that the

01:07:49.260 Democrats

01:07:49.820 would show

01:07:50.520 us that

01:07:50.940 it was

01:07:51.200 never

01:07:51.560 serious.

01:07:54.000 Because

01:07:54.600 if they

01:07:55.580 were serious

01:07:56.480 about

01:07:58.860 climate change

01:07:59.680 being the

01:08:00.140 biggest

01:08:00.420 existential

01:08:01.100 risk,

01:08:02.540 they wouldn't

01:08:03.380 push it to

01:08:03.960 the back

01:08:04.500 just to win

01:08:05.920 an election,

01:08:06.640 would they?

01:08:07.500 Unless they're

01:08:08.120 terrible people.

01:08:10.820 Well,

01:08:11.480 they might be

01:08:11.960 terrible people.

01:08:13.640 You never

01:08:14.040 know.

01:08:14.380 Victor David

01:08:16.000 Hansen's

01:08:16.600 writing in

01:08:17.440 the Post

01:08:17.900 Millennial,

01:08:18.620 they've got

01:08:19.580 his article,

01:08:21.260 that in

01:08:22.000 LA, the

01:08:22.600 landscapers and

01:08:23.780 construction

01:08:25.220 sites are

01:08:26.820 already

01:08:27.240 understaffed

01:08:28.860 because the

01:08:29.700 undocumented

01:08:31.520 population have

01:08:33.660 been deported

01:08:34.420 and or they

01:08:35.160 don't want to

01:08:35.580 come to work

01:08:36.120 because they

01:08:36.560 might get

01:08:37.000 grabbed.

01:08:37.520 So we

01:08:40.040 will see

01:08:40.540 in LA

01:08:41.240 what happens

01:08:43.480 when you

01:08:43.900 deport the

01:08:44.520 people who

01:08:44.920 are doing

01:08:45.240 a certain

01:08:45.660 number of

01:08:46.140 jobs.

01:08:47.200 Now we

01:08:47.620 did see

01:08:48.120 the one

01:08:48.880 anecdote

01:08:49.420 in some

01:08:51.740 Midwestern

01:08:52.500 state, I

01:08:53.380 forget which

01:08:53.820 one, where

01:08:55.260 when ICE

01:08:57.380 grabbed almost

01:08:59.020 all of their

01:08:59.600 workers in

01:09:00.540 some food

01:09:01.080 processing

01:09:01.640 plant, that

01:09:03.320 that didn't

01:09:04.080 cause a

01:09:04.600 long-term

01:09:05.060 problem because

01:09:06.740 the company

01:09:07.800 immediately said

01:09:08.820 all right,

01:09:10.200 we have lots

01:09:11.860 of job

01:09:12.220 openings and

01:09:12.940 there was a

01:09:13.440 gigantic line

01:09:14.340 of citizens

01:09:15.540 who wanted

01:09:16.040 those jobs.

01:09:17.280 But will

01:09:17.740 that happen

01:09:18.200 in LA?

01:09:19.520 If LA

01:09:21.000 loses its

01:09:21.940 construction

01:09:22.820 workers and

01:09:23.860 landscapers,

01:09:26.240 will there be

01:09:26.880 an immediate

01:09:27.960 uptick in

01:09:30.180 American citizens

01:09:31.120 taking those

01:09:31.900 positions?

01:09:33.400 I don't

01:09:33.960 know.

01:09:34.700 Too easy,

01:09:35.520 it's too

01:09:35.980 early to say.

01:09:36.740 But we'll

01:09:40.480 see if it

01:09:41.020 operates the

01:09:41.700 same as

01:09:42.060 it did in

01:09:42.580 the Midwest.

01:09:45.500 Rick Caruso,

01:09:47.200 you know him

01:09:47.800 from LA.

01:09:50.440 He's a

01:09:50.900 developer, I

01:09:51.700 think he ran

01:09:52.240 for mayor

01:09:53.120 once.

01:09:54.260 But he's

01:09:54.580 talking about

01:09:55.120 Mayor

01:09:55.960 Bass, and

01:09:58.380 he says that

01:09:59.180 she's repeatedly 0.94

01:09:59.920 emphasized the

01:10:00.800 rapid pace of

01:10:01.520 rebuilding after

01:10:03.020 the fire.

01:10:05.800 And

01:10:06.740 only 100

01:10:07.740 building permits

01:10:08.700 have been

01:10:08.980 issued after

01:10:09.680 six months.

01:10:11.480 And there

01:10:12.180 are thousands

01:10:13.280 of homes that

01:10:14.400 need to be

01:10:14.880 rebuilt.

01:10:15.600 And only 100

01:10:16.680 building permits

01:10:17.700 after six

01:10:19.460 months.

01:10:20.480 Now the

01:10:21.080 cleanup of

01:10:23.120 the toxic

01:10:23.940 stuff did

01:10:25.880 go faster

01:10:26.700 than, you

01:10:28.560 know, historically

01:10:29.220 you'd expect it

01:10:30.160 to.

01:10:30.320 So they did

01:10:31.100 a great job

01:10:31.760 on the

01:10:32.020 cleanup,

01:10:32.880 apparently.

01:10:34.920 But the

01:10:35.640 part where

01:10:36.220 you get rid

01:10:36.720 of the red

01:10:37.080 tape and

01:10:37.740 approve some

01:10:39.280 new homes,

01:10:40.520 not so good.

01:10:42.540 Not so good.

01:10:43.920 So that's my,

01:10:45.100 I like to end

01:10:45.900 by saying how

01:10:46.600 bad my state

01:10:47.400 is compared

01:10:47.940 to yours.

01:10:49.100 So if you

01:10:49.640 don't live in

01:10:50.260 California,

01:10:51.660 you can say

01:10:52.280 to yourself,

01:10:52.860 well, thank

01:10:53.320 God I don't

01:10:54.040 live in

01:10:54.380 California.

01:10:55.280 At least I got

01:10:55.860 that working

01:10:56.360 for me.

01:10:56.780 Scott, how

01:11:01.580 did these

01:11:01.920 jobs get

01:11:02.480 filled before

01:11:03.280 20 million

01:11:03.960 people came

01:11:05.300 in?

01:11:06.500 Well, they

01:11:08.920 weren't.

01:11:11.180 The answer

01:11:12.080 is they

01:11:12.380 weren't filled.

01:11:15.660 Yeah, they

01:11:17.280 didn't exist.

01:11:20.800 So I do

01:11:22.340 think they

01:11:22.820 need more

01:11:24.220 jobs for

01:11:24.880 teenagers.

01:11:25.520 when I

01:11:27.360 grew up,

01:11:27.980 we did

01:11:28.460 not have

01:11:28.920 any

01:11:29.340 immigrants

01:11:30.020 in my

01:11:31.140 little town

01:11:31.720 of Wyndham,

01:11:32.340 New York.

01:11:33.120 So the

01:11:34.160 people who

01:11:34.680 did all

01:11:35.060 the lawn

01:11:36.520 mowing

01:11:36.820 were high

01:11:39.220 school kids.

01:11:40.640 I mean, I

01:11:41.080 did a lot

01:11:41.480 of lawn

01:11:41.880 mowing.

01:11:43.820 So maybe

01:11:44.620 you'll see

01:11:45.080 high school

01:11:45.780 kids do it.

01:11:47.380 Not the

01:11:48.060 construction

01:11:48.520 stuff, but

01:11:49.320 at least the

01:11:50.160 lawn care.

01:11:51.980 Maybe.

01:11:52.700 We'll see.

01:11:55.520 All right.

01:11:59.460 But keep

01:12:00.480 in mind,

01:12:01.700 the size

01:12:03.500 of the

01:12:03.800 industry is

01:12:04.980 matched to

01:12:05.780 the number

01:12:06.500 of workers

01:12:07.140 somewhat.

01:12:09.360 So if we

01:12:10.240 have a much

01:12:10.840 bigger industry

01:12:11.680 because of the

01:12:12.560 foreign workers

01:12:13.400 and they all

01:12:14.380 left,

01:12:15.900 would that

01:12:17.540 mean that

01:12:18.200 we had a

01:12:18.820 bunch of

01:12:19.340 people who

01:12:20.640 were looking

01:12:21.040 for jobs

01:12:21.740 in one of

01:12:22.900 those kind

01:12:23.320 of jobs

01:12:23.760 and would

01:12:24.080 be willing

01:12:24.500 to work

01:12:24.920 them,

01:12:25.580 we'll find

01:12:26.140 out.

01:12:27.100 If you

01:12:27.880 believe that

01:12:28.500 those jobs 0.65

01:12:29.160 will just

01:12:29.660 naturally be

01:12:30.420 filled by

01:12:30.860 Americans,

01:12:32.040 you're probably

01:12:32.720 right.

01:12:33.720 I wouldn't

01:12:34.600 argue the

01:12:35.540 point.

01:12:36.460 But I do

01:12:36.940 think there's

01:12:37.480 enough

01:12:37.800 variability in

01:12:38.900 it to say

01:12:41.860 wait and

01:12:42.420 see.

01:12:43.780 Because if

01:12:45.020 it's like

01:12:45.420 everything else

01:12:46.100 in the world,

01:12:47.380 there'll be

01:12:47.780 some type of

01:12:48.440 jobs that
