Transcript

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.
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.

00:11:16.960 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
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
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.
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?
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
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
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
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
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?
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
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.
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
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,
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
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
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
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
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
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
00:40:40.140 these five
00:40:40.820 oligarchs who
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
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
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?
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
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?
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
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
00:49:27.320 said.
00:49:29.000 But it's
00:49:29.760 more than
00:49:30.060 one lawmaker.
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
01:04:37.000 B-I-T-C-H-A-T.
01:04:41.380 It's also
01:04:42.200 could be
01:04:44.200 pronounced
01:04:44.720 Bitch-At.
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
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.
01:05:15.440 It's
01:05:15.960 out there.
01:05:16.340 Well,
01:05:19.280 Zion
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
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
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
01:12:49.040 immediately get
01:12:49.900 filled.
01:12:50.180 And then
01:12:51.640 there'll be
