Transcript

00:00:00.000 Come on in.
00:00:01.620 It's time for your favorite part of the day.
00:00:05.340 Come on in here.
00:00:06.520 Get in here.
00:00:07.760 I'm checking our stocks.
00:00:10.740 And it looks like stocks are up a little bit.
00:00:14.220 All right.
00:00:15.640 Good for us, if you have stocks.
00:00:18.940 All right.
00:00:19.580 Let me get my comments going, then we've got to show.
00:00:24.680 Don't want to miss anything.
00:00:28.100 Come on.
00:00:28.900 There we go.
00:00:30.000 Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:00:35.020 Do, do, do.
00:00:37.840 So it looks like I can't do this upside down.
00:00:40.900 And I can't do it right side up because it's got a cord in the way.
00:00:45.520 How will I make this work like that?
00:00:49.600 Will not be defeated.
00:00:52.800 Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:00:56.380 Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
00:00:58.720 Oh, Gene, stay awake.
00:01:03.880 Good morning, everybody.
00:01:05.200 And welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:01:08.900 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time.
00:01:12.720 But if you'd like to try desperately, oh, my phone fell over.
00:01:19.240 To elevate this experience to levels that no one can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains.
00:01:26.720 All you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:01:38.440 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:01:39.940 I like coffee.
00:01:40.640 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:01:47.240 It's called the simultaneous sip.
00:01:50.300 Exactly.
00:01:51.260 Go.
00:01:55.840 Ah.
00:01:58.000 So good.
00:01:59.660 So, so good.
00:02:00.980 Well, let's check the world of science to see if we can save them any money.
00:02:10.380 Oh, yeah, here's one.
00:02:12.460 According to Cornell University, Sarah Magnus Sharp is writing, that they did some studies and found out that the secret to keeping your New Year's resolution is that you have to like the process as much as the goal.
00:02:31.360 Hmm.
00:02:32.520 The process as much as the goal.
00:02:36.460 Huh.
00:02:37.240 Does that sound familiar at all?
00:02:39.620 Yes.
00:02:40.560 If you don't like this system, you're not going to get to the goal.
00:02:46.360 A perfect example of that is exercise.
00:02:50.640 If you choose an exercise that you hate, you're not going to get in shape.
00:02:56.660 Not a chance.
00:02:57.480 But let's say you follow the disgraced cartoonist advice and you find some exercise that you enjoy and you reward yourself for it.
00:03:10.300 I used to like going to the gym because I like the social element of it and I would give myself a healthy snack when I was done and I was addicted to the process.
00:03:23.200 So, yes, the reason that some people achieve their goals is that they enjoy the process.
00:03:33.000 The Atomic Habits guy wrote about this.
00:03:36.100 Well, yes, the Atomic Habits guy wrote about a few things that I also wrote about first, which he admits.
00:03:45.100 He does give me credit for stuff in his book.
00:03:49.360 Anyway, let's see if science has any more surprises for us.
00:03:55.200 Oh, here Eric Dolan is writing about there were psychedelic retreats for people with PTSD.
00:04:05.720 And they found that if they did psychedelics, it helped them with their PTSD.
00:04:14.460 Now, does that story sound familiar?
00:04:17.440 At least once a week, there's a new study where somebody gave somebody some psychedelics and discovered that it helped their mental situation greatly.
00:04:30.300 It either solved their depression or their PTSD or some other major mental problems.
00:04:37.560 Have you ever seen a story about people responsibly using hallucinogens where it didn't work?
00:04:48.480 I feel like it works every time they test it, no matter what the domain is, as long as it's something about mental health.
00:04:56.860 It helps every time, every person, every time.
00:05:00.440 Now, there must be situations where it goes wrong for some people.
00:05:05.000 So don't take any, don't get any medical advice from me.
00:05:09.360 I'm just noting that every time this story is in the news has the same ending.
00:05:14.640 Yeah, it was a big difference.
00:05:16.780 Something should, something should happen.
00:05:20.800 If we, we could replace, I believe, all therapy with AI as your therapist,
00:05:30.360 just telling you to responsibly take some hallucinogens, maybe, maybe that's all you need.
00:05:41.660 I saw a post by the Wall Street Apes on X.
00:05:46.300 They showed a video of, there's some company in San Francisco, I don't know what company,
00:05:51.100 that's testing a little robot on wheels, you know, not, not the guy that looks like a person,
00:05:59.140 but a little robot on wheels for delivering stuff in urban environments.
00:06:04.200 And they're testing it.
00:06:07.140 This doesn't seem real, but I think it is.
00:06:10.080 They're testing it in L.A. to see if I can deliver things on the sidewalk.
00:06:16.760 But they had to do a test where they put mannequins on the sidewalk like homeless people
00:06:24.460 who had passed down from fentanyl.
00:06:27.160 And then they had to test the robot to see if it would go around the bodies,
00:06:31.860 the homeless people lying on the sidewalks.
00:06:35.080 And I think it did.
00:06:40.100 But we're just assuming from the video that what they were testing was if the robots could go around the humans.
00:06:48.380 What we didn't see is if they're testing the robot to kill the humans, then go around them.
00:06:56.560 I don't know.
00:06:58.160 I don't know.
00:06:58.860 We just saw the bodies.
00:07:00.040 We don't know how they died.
00:07:01.140 But it might be the first step in the robots destroying all humanity.
00:07:06.660 Speaking of that, perplexity, the AI company that I've said good things about in the past,
00:07:13.880 it's a hot little AI company.
00:07:17.520 I don't know if it will survive because it's not one of the top three.
00:07:23.380 If you're not in the top three, I don't know if the government will even let you be successful.
00:07:28.220 So maybe Apple will buy them or something.
00:07:29.880 But perplexity has rolled out its own browser called Comet.
00:07:37.020 And I saw one report on TechRadar by John Anthony DeSoto who tested it, and he was impressed.
00:07:44.680 Now, the reason that an AI company would want to make its own browser is so the browser could act as your agent
00:07:53.100 and do a bunch of stuff while you're doing whatever you want to do.
00:07:57.140 So, as John Anthony points out in his article, that when you first start using it, it doesn't seem like it's a big time saver
00:08:09.280 because you tell it to do something, and then you sit there and watch to make sure it did it.
00:08:14.220 So it takes about, you know, it's not really that much of a time saver because you're prevented from doing something else
00:08:21.960 because you're watching to make sure it worked.
00:08:24.480 But as he points out, you eventually reach a point where you realize, wait a minute, this usually works.
00:08:30.820 So I'll just tell it to make some reservations or whatever, whatever you're telling it to do.
00:08:36.040 And I'll do some work on something else in the meantime.
00:08:40.200 And apparently that is a big wow experience because when you get back to it and it did what you wanted, it saved a lot of time.
00:08:48.460 Now, here's my take.
00:08:52.580 I've been saying this for probably 20 years or more in public, and people always fight me on this.
00:09:03.420 And you will fight me too.
00:09:05.760 So get ready to fight me.
00:09:08.740 Here's what I believe.
00:09:10.480 I believe that humans want to maintain privacy as much as possible.
00:09:16.220 So far, we're on the same page.
00:09:18.560 Everybody likes privacy, mostly about themselves.
00:09:22.900 We don't care about privacy for other people, but we like it for ourselves.
00:09:29.180 But in order to use and really get all the benefit from these AI agents, they're going to need to have your passwords.
00:09:38.240 And they're going to need to know all about you because the things that you want them to do,
00:09:44.420 such as making reservations or whatever,
00:09:46.560 it's going to require a lot of knowledge about you, your name, your address.
00:09:52.180 In some cases, maybe your social security number, if you're telling it to deal with something financial or banking or whatever.
00:10:00.180 How many of you would feel comfortable giving your own AI if they told you, oh, it's totally secure, we'll never look at it at the company level?
00:10:11.880 How many of you would feel comfortable with an AI that has your password for anything important?
00:10:20.440 Maybe for making restaurant reservations?
00:10:22.760 Maybe.
00:10:24.660 But would you let it have access to your bank?
00:10:27.720 Because if you did, think of all the time you would save.
00:10:33.880 I would love an AI that had access to my bank.
00:10:37.140 Because I'm continually signing up for things that are auto-pay or debugging some problem with my bank or there's a credit card that got stolen.
00:10:49.900 Just always, I'm just always dealing with bank and IRS stuff.
00:10:54.400 How many of you would trust your AI to have access to all of that stuff?
00:11:01.220 The answer is none of you.
00:11:04.500 Not a single one of you, and certainly not me, would feel comfortable with it.
00:11:09.660 Now, here's the part that I've been predicting.
00:11:14.320 We'll all get over it.
00:11:16.800 We'll get over it.
00:11:17.820 Once you realize that privacy was always an illusion, you're going to let it go.
00:11:25.040 It's always been an illusion.
00:11:27.600 The only thing that protects your privacy in a world where the government can get access to anything that they want,
00:11:35.500 they only need to have a reason.
00:11:38.260 And it doesn't have to be even a good reason.
00:11:41.360 It could be a reason they made up, because they're law-faring you.
00:11:44.540 So you don't have any privacy.
00:11:47.540 The only thing you have that protects you is your boringness.
00:11:54.380 Have you heard me say this before?
00:11:56.400 The only protection you have is being boring and not being interesting to the government,
00:12:03.600 not being interesting to hackers, not being interested to people at banks and other places
00:12:10.620 that have access to your private information.
00:12:12.900 The only reason that all of you have not been victimized is that you're boring.
00:12:21.220 There is somebody who can get access to everything you have, the government.
00:12:27.580 They just need a reason.
00:12:29.900 As long as you're boring, no reason.
00:12:32.660 But the moment you do a freak-off, you know, sort of ditty style, well, suddenly they're accessing your phones and your computers
00:12:43.500 and talking to everybody who ever knew you.
00:12:46.580 You don't have privacy.
00:12:48.620 You don't even have a little bit of privacy.
00:12:51.160 You have zero privacy.
00:12:52.940 You only have the right to be boring.
00:12:55.520 That's it.
00:12:56.900 Nothing else.
00:12:57.760 So, I'm not saying that you should give up your privacy, and I'm not saying I would enjoy it if it happened, if I lost mine.
00:13:07.020 Wouldn't like it at all.
00:13:08.100 But I bet you, once we realize that privacy went away a long time ago, or maybe you never had it,
00:13:17.120 that you'll just say, you know, I don't really have any serious privacy
00:13:23.360 because my government can get whatever they want, if not hackers.
00:13:28.520 But I could use these AI agents to make my life ten times easier.
00:13:34.840 So, I think people will just get over privacy.
00:13:37.820 That's my prediction.
00:13:39.260 And again, I'm not saying you should or that you'll like it.
00:13:43.020 I'm just predicting that's where it will go.
00:13:45.720 Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.
00:13:47.880 I've been visualizing my match all week.
00:13:50.420 She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her backhand side.
00:13:55.360 Good thing Claudia's with Intact, the insurer with the largest network of auto service centers in the country.
00:14:02.120 Everything was taken care of under one roof, and she was on her way in a rental car in no time.
00:14:06.580 I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.
00:14:10.060 But you got there on time.
00:14:11.900 Intact Insurance, your auto service ace.
00:14:14.520 Certain conditions apply.
00:14:17.140 Well, SoftBank, the company's SoftBank, according to Digital Trends,
00:14:23.160 Trevor Mogg is writing that they've developed AI agents to make each worker like a thousand-armed deity.
00:14:31.600 So, the head of SoftBank, Son Mayashi, Masayoshi,
00:14:39.220 he said that they now have this technology that would allow the AI to make its own agents,
00:14:47.200 and you could have potentially one person could have, you know, a million AI agents doing stuff for you.
00:14:56.040 But I say, I don't believe this is a fruitful direction,
00:15:01.440 because if you had one AI agent and you told it to make some hotel reservations,
00:15:07.920 it wouldn't be a big burden on you to check and make sure it did it right,
00:15:12.040 and then correct whatever wasn't right.
00:15:14.080 But if you had a million agents that were doing things on your behalf,
00:15:19.600 or even a hundred,
00:15:22.640 how in the world would you supervise all that?
00:15:25.540 And would you feel comfortable that if you didn't supervise it,
00:15:29.400 the AI was going to go and do it correctly the way you want,
00:15:32.280 and not cause you any problems?
00:15:34.660 I don't know.
00:15:35.180 I feel like there will be a natural limit to how many AI agents anybody will ever want working on their behalf,
00:15:43.220 because you've got to check their work all the time.
00:15:45.540 So, maybe three might be your limit, not a million.
00:15:50.280 Well, Delta Airlines, according to Fortune magazine,
00:15:57.640 Irina Ivanova is writing,
00:16:00.220 they're eliminating set prices for their flights
00:16:03.240 in favor of having the AI determine how much you personally will pay for a ticket.
00:16:09.000 And apparently, this is already being,
00:16:12.120 it's rolled out,
00:16:13.860 and it's being tested on a small percentage of their customers.
00:16:18.600 To which I asked the question on X,
00:16:21.180 and everybody had the same answer.
00:16:23.320 How much would you be happy
00:16:25.240 to find out that the price you were paying for your airline ticket at Delta
00:16:30.320 was determined by the AI figuring out the most you were willing to pay?
00:16:38.060 I can't think of anything that would make me hate the company more than that.
00:16:42.840 Can you?
00:16:44.100 Because how would the AI determine how much you're willing to pay?
00:16:48.520 What does it know about you?
00:16:51.120 Let me give you an example.
00:16:53.280 Let's say you were,
00:16:55.900 one of your parents is elderly,
00:16:58.060 and you're making frequent flights to spend time with them.
00:17:04.000 Wouldn't Delta figure out
00:17:05.760 that this person is going to book those frequent flights
00:17:09.820 because there's obviously something on the other end
00:17:12.680 that's important to that person.
00:17:14.860 And so they raise the price for you to see your dying parents.
00:17:19.620 Now, it wouldn't know it's doing that.
00:17:21.660 It would just say,
00:17:22.480 I feel like this person is going to pay a little more for a ticket
00:17:25.140 because they fly a lot.
00:17:26.500 So there must be something on the other end of that flight
00:17:29.560 that they really care about.
00:17:32.260 How in the world,
00:17:33.480 because it could have possibly charged me more than other people
00:17:36.560 for whatever it is I want,
00:17:38.480 where I wouldn't want to go in with a machine gun
00:17:40.580 and kill everybody at their company.
00:17:43.300 Don't do that, by the way.
00:17:45.060 That is not a call to violence.
00:17:47.340 Oh, my God.
00:17:50.980 I really can't think of a worse idea.
00:17:54.960 But we'll see.
00:17:56.280 They swear they're going to roll it out.
00:17:59.980 All right.
00:18:01.580 Trump announced yesterday
00:18:03.680 that they're cutting federal funding
00:18:05.740 for California's ridiculous high-speed rail project.
00:18:08.780 They had billions of dollars approved,
00:18:13.900 but it managed to build basically no high-speed rail at all.
00:18:18.840 And I said to myself,
00:18:20.440 well, that'll teach California
00:18:22.580 because once that federal funding is cut,
00:18:26.740 there's no way they're going to keep wasting this money.
00:18:29.500 But then I looked at the context,
00:18:31.800 and the entire project is currently estimated
00:18:36.880 to cost $128 billion
00:18:38.960 to build California's high-speed rail.
00:18:41.980 I didn't even know they were still working on it.
00:18:44.980 Did anybody know that?
00:18:46.660 I thought that project was killed a long time ago.
00:18:50.520 But the amount that the...
00:18:52.680 And that's the estimate is four times
00:18:55.280 the original estimated price of $33 billion.
00:19:00.380 So it went from,
00:19:01.300 I think we can do this for $33 billion
00:19:03.880 to, I don't know,
00:19:06.080 but we might be able to get it done for $128 billion.
00:19:09.600 And you learn that after you start.
00:19:13.360 That's like every project I did in my corporate days.
00:19:18.880 It was my job to evaluate vendors
00:19:22.480 for various technology purchases that we needed.
00:19:26.720 And so I'd go out for a bid,
00:19:29.860 I'd ask companies to bid on it.
00:19:31.980 All right, we need to replace this internal storage device.
00:19:36.980 And then all the companies would bid,
00:19:39.300 and then I would take the low bid
00:19:41.260 of the best company that was qualified to do it,
00:19:45.280 and I would take it to my boss,
00:19:46.940 and I'd say,
00:19:47.680 here's the one that's the lowest bid
00:19:49.980 for this exact thing that we want.
00:19:52.500 And then what would happen after I signed the deal?
00:19:57.180 Every time, what would happen?
00:19:59.560 As soon as you sign it,
00:20:01.760 or maybe as soon as you install it,
00:20:04.180 you immediately learned that you needed to spend more
00:20:06.980 for something that hadn't been mentioned.
00:20:09.020 And so on day one,
00:20:11.980 your low-priced vendor,
00:20:14.740 the one that had the lowest price,
00:20:16.800 surprises you with,
00:20:18.140 oh, well, it looks like we specified something
00:20:22.420 that's a little underpowered for what you need.
00:20:24.940 But no problem.
00:20:26.140 If you just pay more,
00:20:27.640 you could have the better model.
00:20:29.300 And then it's too late to start all over again,
00:20:33.160 and you don't want to tell your boss
00:20:35.380 that you screwed up,
00:20:36.680 what are you going to do?
00:20:38.040 Well, the vendor knows exactly what you're going to do.
00:20:40.580 You're going to pay the higher price.
00:20:42.580 So in the real world,
00:20:44.440 things do go the way that this high-speed rail went,
00:20:48.680 which is somebody bid,
00:20:50.840 I could get that done for $33 billion.
00:20:53.460 And then probably the moment it was improved,
00:20:56.720 the people who said they could do it for $33 billion
00:20:59.240 started doing,
00:21:01.000 probably there was lots of different entities,
00:21:03.420 but every one of the entities said,
00:21:05.360 all right, yes, totally.
00:21:07.000 Yep, our portion would only cost a billion.
00:21:10.520 Well, unless you want to go all the way down the state,
00:21:14.060 which is what you want,
00:21:16.220 well, that would be $2 billion.
00:21:18.240 And then all the other people involved do the same thing.
00:21:20.880 So, well, now that it's all approved,
00:21:23.920 I got to admit, we're taking a closer look,
00:21:26.360 and we probably can't do it for that price.
00:21:29.580 But for twice that price,
00:21:31.000 we could totally get it done.
00:21:34.580 So that's the way of the world.
00:21:37.140 Everything gets approved at an artificially low price,
00:21:40.080 and then the bad people creep it up.
00:21:43.240 But apparently the federal amount was only $4 billion.
00:21:47.700 So if we think it would cost $128 billion,
00:21:51.080 and Trump only took away $4 billion,
00:21:54.580 it shouldn't make any difference at all to whether it gets built.
00:21:58.300 I mean, it's such a small percentage.
00:22:00.460 But we'll see.
00:22:01.360 I expect nothing to happen.
00:22:04.520 But do other countries have the same problem where they can't get stuff done?
00:22:09.700 Well, it turns out that the UAE is planning to build an underwater bullet train,
00:22:16.080 which doesn't exist anywhere.
00:22:17.700 So they would connect Dubai and Mumbai.
00:22:24.280 So from Dubai to Mumbai,
00:22:26.540 there would be this cool underwater train experience,
00:22:30.500 high-speed train,
00:22:31.260 and they would make it so that the underwater view is amazing,
00:22:36.140 so that you're looking at amazing underwater stuff as you go.
00:22:40.640 So that's what the UAE is doing.
00:22:42.720 How does the UAE get something done like that?
00:22:48.060 Because it feels like in the Middle East that things are getting done.
00:22:54.040 Maybe not that big city of Aum or whatever it is, Saudi Arabia.
00:22:58.580 I think Saudi Arabia is having that cost overrun thing too,
00:23:02.280 building their big futuristic city.
00:23:05.580 But we'll see.
00:23:06.960 We'll see if the UAE can do what California cannot do times 10.
00:23:11.860 Okay.
00:23:13.540 If you watched the Sean Ryan broadcast podcast with Gavin Newsom,
00:23:20.620 you saw that Gavin Newsom was angry at Trump for, among other things,
00:23:26.400 giving him the nickname New Scum.
00:23:29.500 And the problem that Gavin Newsom has with his nickname New Scum
00:23:37.320 is that he has children,
00:23:39.820 and the children get bullied at school,
00:23:42.000 and they get called New Scum too.
00:23:45.700 Now, I am very much opposed
00:23:48.320 to the situation where you call Gavin Newsom New Scum,
00:23:55.140 but it has a downhill impact on the children being bullied.
00:23:59.600 And I think you need something to distinguish the two,
00:24:07.040 because you don't want the father and the children to be suffering under the same nickname.
00:24:11.560 So what I recommend is that Gavin be called Old Scum,
00:24:16.460 and maybe his children would just be New Scum, sort of like Junior.
00:24:21.800 No, I'm against bullying.
00:24:26.820 That's just a joke.
00:24:29.020 But it's kind of funny.
00:24:30.840 New Scum and Old Scum.
00:24:33.720 If I were his kids, I don't know how old they are.
00:24:36.940 I think they're probably teens.
00:24:37.940 If I were his teenage kids, and people were calling me New Scum,
00:24:44.840 I would insist that my father be referred to as Old Scum,
00:24:49.260 because it would be funny to me.

00:25:53.160 All right.
00:25:54.660 Well, apparently there's a new poll
00:25:57.080 of Democrat congressional people approval.
00:26:01.080 And the job approval, according to the New York Post,
00:26:05.260 Victor Nava's writing about this,
00:26:07.560 they've hit a new all-time low.
00:26:10.140 So they're now at 19%, only 19% of registered voters
00:26:18.160 approve of the way Democrats and Congress are handling their job.
00:26:22.440 That's a Quinnipiac University poll.
00:26:27.180 19%.
00:26:27.860 Is that the lowest it's ever been?
00:26:30.520 It feels like it, right?
00:26:35.140 Newer scum.
00:26:36.340 New scum and newer scum.
00:26:38.580 That's pretty funny.
00:26:41.900 So I'm going to predict that Democrat congressional approval
00:26:47.420 will hit single digits.
00:26:48.980 So, you know, something below 10%.
00:26:53.440 If there are doubts at 19%,
00:26:56.440 I don't know if there's a bottom for this.
00:26:59.980 So we'll see.
00:27:02.360 Well, Newsmax is reporting that Columbia University
00:27:05.300 is trying to address the problem
00:27:07.440 that the Trump administration is withholding
00:27:11.440 something like $400 million in federal funds
00:27:14.600 because they say Columbia is not doing enough
00:27:18.800 to fight anti-Semitism.
00:27:21.260 So Columbia has decided to try to get their $400 million back
00:27:26.060 by agreeing to a bunch of requirements
00:27:30.720 placed on them for fighting anti-Semitism.
00:27:34.700 And I said to myself,
00:27:36.800 well, what are they asking them to do?
00:27:39.160 Well, here's a list of things they're going to do.
00:27:43.760 They're going to adopt
00:27:44.600 the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance
00:27:47.360 definition of anti-Semitism.
00:27:51.900 So they won't have as much ambiguity
00:27:55.640 about what is and what isn't.
00:27:57.880 They will accept that organization's definition
00:28:02.660 of anti-Semitism.
00:28:04.580 Now, what would that be?
00:28:06.680 What would their definition be?
00:28:09.160 Their definition would be
00:28:10.560 that some critiques of Israel,
00:28:13.900 the country, as a Jewish state,
00:28:16.280 might cross the line into anti-Semitism.
00:28:19.240 They gave some examples.
00:28:22.220 So if you were to publicly deny,
00:28:25.360 well, or privately, I guess,
00:28:27.140 deny the Jewish people's right
00:28:28.880 to self-determination,
00:28:31.240 you would be anti-Semitic.
00:28:33.980 The right to self-determination.
00:28:35.920 What does that even mean?
00:28:39.580 What would it mean to deny somebody's right
00:28:42.600 to self-determination?
00:28:45.700 Doesn't everybody sort of have that right a little bit?
00:28:50.260 I don't even know what it means.
00:28:51.440 So that would be trouble.
00:28:53.740 Or claiming,
00:28:55.400 so it would be anti-Semitic
00:28:56.820 according to this definition,
00:28:58.040 if you claim that the existence of Israel
00:29:00.900 is a racist endeavor.
00:29:03.820 So don't do that.
00:29:07.540 And if you compare the current Israeli policies
00:29:10.960 with that of the Nazis,
00:29:13.380 that would be considered anti-Semitic.
00:29:16.380 So you can't call Israel Nazis.
00:29:21.060 But, just to be clear,
00:29:22.940 you can still call everybody else a Nazi.
00:29:26.040 You can call Trump a Nazi.
00:29:28.240 You can call me a Nazi.
00:29:30.640 You can call everybody a Nazi,
00:29:32.460 but you cannot call
00:29:34.240 Israeli policies Nazi.
00:29:39.000 Now, here is something you need to know.
00:29:41.820 I talk about this a lot, actually.
00:29:46.260 But I'll put it in this context as well.
00:29:48.960 Whoever controls the definition of words
00:29:51.720 controls you.
00:29:55.440 Let me say that again.
00:29:56.880 Whoever controls the definition of words,
00:30:00.320 in this case, anti-Semitism,
00:30:02.640 controls you.
00:30:04.240 Because they can decide,
00:30:05.780 well, according to my definition,
00:30:08.100 you just did something illegal,
00:30:09.600 so you go to jail.
00:30:10.580 Or you get kicked down,
00:30:12.480 or whatever the penalty is.
00:30:14.860 So, whenever you see this,
00:30:18.380 we've decided that this one organization
00:30:20.740 will be in charge of the definition of the word.
00:30:24.680 You don't want to be in that situation.
00:30:28.460 You want to be able to have the right
00:30:30.600 to use words the way you would like them to mean.
00:30:33.980 And if other people have a different definition for it,
00:30:36.580 well, you can fight it out,
00:30:37.980 you know, verbally.
00:30:39.020 But if you let somebody else decide
00:30:43.000 what your definitions of words are,
00:30:45.480 they are in charge of you.
00:30:47.560 So, I would suggest
00:30:49.060 that Israel's making a step
00:30:52.240 in the wrong direction.
00:30:54.700 Because one of their biggest complaints
00:30:57.180 is that the anti-Semites say,
00:31:00.020 Israel has too much control in the United States.
00:31:02.800 Well, they're talking about this.
00:31:07.380 Now, it's not the country of Israel.
00:31:09.780 In this case,
00:31:10.680 it's the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance,
00:31:13.820 which I'm sure is a fine organization.
00:31:16.340 I have no problem with it whatsoever.
00:31:18.580 And, obviously,
00:31:19.820 if they have the option
00:31:21.360 of being in control of the definition,
00:31:24.180 of course they'd want that.
00:31:26.220 You know, why would they?
00:31:27.360 You should want it too.
00:31:28.340 We should all want to be in charge
00:31:30.720 of the definitions
00:31:31.520 because that puts you
00:31:32.540 in charge of everything.
00:31:35.380 But,
00:31:36.160 they're working with,
00:31:38.740 so,
00:31:39.440 Columbia is also working
00:31:40.600 with the Anti-Definition League.
00:31:44.660 And they're,
00:31:45.900 what else are they doing?
00:31:49.320 They're going to appoint
00:31:50.440 a coordinator
00:31:51.260 to ensure compliance
00:31:52.560 with whatever,
00:31:53.880 Civil Rights Acts.
00:31:55.260 Sounds good.
00:31:55.920 And they're going to allow,
00:31:58.640 they're going to work
00:31:59.180 with the Anti-Defamation League
00:32:01.320 to create training
00:32:02.880 on anti-Semitism.
00:32:05.200 So,
00:32:06.220 a little bit like
00:32:07.560 the definition thing.
00:32:10.540 So,
00:32:10.960 if Columbia
00:32:11.700 delegates
00:32:13.540 the training materials
00:32:15.760 to the Anti-Defamation League,
00:32:18.100 they're really
00:32:19.060 putting the Anti-Defamation League
00:32:20.880 in charge of
00:32:21.820 some important stuff.
00:32:24.540 So,
00:32:26.580 I feel as though
00:32:28.140 this may be
00:32:31.260 one step forward,
00:32:33.020 two steps back.
00:32:35.360 It's good to
00:32:36.600 try to battle
00:32:37.480 anti-Semitism.
00:32:39.120 So,
00:32:39.580 I'm all in on that.
00:32:42.140 But,
00:32:42.840 if the way you're doing it
00:32:44.000 is you're putting
00:32:44.720 in some
00:32:45.720 organization's
00:32:47.660 definition of
00:32:48.480 what would allow you
00:32:49.820 to be kicked out of school
00:32:51.080 or jailed
00:32:51.940 or punished
00:32:53.020 or canceled
00:32:54.300 or whatever,
00:32:55.460 that's a horrible idea.
00:32:58.180 And you,
00:32:59.600 I would imagine
00:33:00.580 that for the people
00:33:02.280 who are,
00:33:02.880 you know,
00:33:03.520 paying attention
00:33:04.180 at some level
00:33:05.040 that's beyond
00:33:05.740 what the average public
00:33:06.760 is paying attention,
00:33:08.360 that this would make them
00:33:09.540 even more angry
00:33:11.160 about what they would see
00:33:13.060 as Jewish control
00:33:14.180 of America.
00:33:14.900 America.
00:33:16.100 Now,
00:33:17.520 since I don't go to
00:33:18.960 Colombia,
00:33:19.880 I don't really have
00:33:20.540 a dog in this fight,
00:33:22.020 but it looks like
00:33:23.320 the thing that the
00:33:24.300 Trump administration
00:33:25.760 is requiring of them
00:33:27.360 to get on the right side
00:33:29.120 of anti-Semitism
00:33:30.040 probably will make it worse.
00:33:32.840 I think it would make it worse.
00:33:35.020 So,
00:33:35.460 I'm going to blame
00:33:36.160 not Colombia for this,
00:33:38.160 but whoever is making
00:33:39.380 Colombia do it,
00:33:40.320 which is the Trump administration.
00:33:42.700 So,
00:33:43.080 bad on the Trump administration,
00:33:44.900 for putting somebody else
00:33:46.740 in charge of
00:33:47.420 definitions of words.
00:33:53.340 According to
00:33:54.380 an ex-user
00:33:55.780 called
00:33:56.200 Cartoons Hater,
00:33:57.900 must be a cartoonist,
00:33:59.140 I don't know,
00:34:01.360 she talks about
00:34:02.780 how in the old days,
00:34:04.860 not too long ago,
00:34:06.600 being a good dancer
00:34:07.760 used to be something
00:34:08.760 that men tried to do.
00:34:11.100 So,
00:34:11.360 apparently men
00:34:12.100 at one point
00:34:13.000 tried to be good dancers,
00:34:14.900 because they thought
00:34:15.640 it would attract women.
00:34:17.760 And it was,
00:34:18.820 I remember when I was younger,
00:34:20.520 that was one of the main things
00:34:21.720 that people said,
00:34:23.300 is that,
00:34:24.580 yeah,
00:34:24.960 just learn to dance,
00:34:26.420 and then you'll have
00:34:27.120 all these women.
00:34:27.740 But,
00:34:28.840 according to
00:34:29.720 Cartoons Hater,
00:34:31.600 that dancing
00:34:32.160 is now a social activity
00:34:33.800 that is uncommon.
00:34:35.760 Did you know that?
00:34:37.260 Did you know that
00:34:38.380 dancing
00:34:39.040 is no longer
00:34:41.020 as big a deal
00:34:43.020 as it used to be?
00:34:44.140 I didn't know that.
00:34:45.500 I assumed it was always the same.
00:34:48.200 But,
00:34:48.820 in the current day,
00:34:51.000 when men dance,
00:34:52.640 in quotes,
00:34:53.420 dance,
00:34:54.180 they either do slow dances
00:34:55.720 or they barely move.
00:34:57.840 So,
00:34:58.280 back in the 80s,
00:34:59.240 you know,
00:34:59.460 people would try to be doing disco
00:35:01.000 and they'd have,
00:35:02.040 you know,
00:35:02.820 John Travolta moves
00:35:03.940 and stuff.
00:35:05.100 And,
00:35:05.600 people are trying to figure out
00:35:07.320 why,
00:35:07.700 what changed?
00:35:08.700 That men don't dance anymore.
00:35:10.800 And,
00:35:11.280 somebody said,
00:35:11.960 it's because dancing looks gay,
00:35:14.600 maybe.
00:35:16.460 But,
00:35:16.940 also,
00:35:17.340 that if you didn't dance
00:35:18.320 very well,
00:35:19.660 somebody with a phone
00:35:21.360 is going to take a video of you
00:35:22.760 and humiliate you in public.
00:35:24.800 To which I thought,
00:35:26.140 hmm,
00:35:27.040 that might be,
00:35:27.920 that might be true.
00:35:29.540 But,
00:35:29.860 I think,
00:35:30.240 in general,
00:35:30.840 just men are not trying as hard.
00:35:33.880 Men are not,
00:35:34.820 just not trying
00:35:35.820 to even attract women.
00:35:40.320 And,
00:35:40.940 we'll,
00:35:41.180 I'll talk about that
00:35:41.960 a little bit more.
00:35:42.640 But,
00:35:42.800 Victor Davis Hanson
00:35:44.120 has an article
00:35:44.640 in the Post Millennial
00:35:45.660 talking about this
00:35:47.360 TikTok influencer
00:35:48.700 who says that women
00:35:51.000 are stealing salads
00:35:52.480 at restaurants
00:35:54.060 when,
00:35:54.540 when the order is up
00:35:55.540 for some order to go.
00:35:57.900 The TikTok influencer
00:35:59.000 say women are stealing salads
00:36:01.180 of what they think
00:36:03.200 would be
00:36:03.700 maybe some guy
00:36:04.760 that they could
00:36:05.440 future,
00:36:06.580 date in the future.
00:36:07.700 And,
00:36:08.140 then they use LinkedIn
00:36:08.960 to stalk the real owner
00:36:10.560 and contact them
00:36:12.080 and say,
00:36:12.420 oh,
00:36:12.720 I'm sorry,
00:36:13.880 it appears I accidentally
00:36:15.500 got your salad.
00:36:16.420 and it's a way
00:36:18.100 for women
00:36:18.580 to somewhat
00:36:19.980 casually
00:36:20.660 meet a man.
00:36:22.700 Now,
00:36:23.300 first of all,
00:36:24.040 I don't believe
00:36:24.660 anything about this story.
00:36:26.520 I do not believe
00:36:27.420 that that happened
00:36:28.200 more than one time
00:36:29.180 in the entire world.
00:36:30.960 There may have been
00:36:32.040 one person
00:36:33.440 who once stole a salad
00:36:34.620 or got one accidentally
00:36:35.900 and thought,
00:36:37.280 oh,
00:36:37.840 I think I'll
00:36:38.920 contact this person.
00:36:40.660 Maybe one person ever.
00:36:42.180 So,
00:36:42.660 I do not believe
00:36:43.780 this is any kind
00:36:44.580 of a trend.
00:36:45.220 but,
00:36:49.500 it does speak
00:36:50.440 to the fact
00:36:51.160 that,
00:36:51.660 you know,
00:36:52.020 the regular dating apps
00:36:53.340 and all that stuff
00:36:54.140 are not working.
00:36:55.080 Dance is not working.
00:36:56.220 Dating apps
00:36:56.780 are not working.
00:36:58.540 And,
00:36:58.900 and some people
00:37:03.300 are complaining
00:37:04.060 that men
00:37:06.720 don't approach
00:37:07.660 women anymore
00:37:08.540 and ask them
00:37:09.100 on dates.
00:37:10.200 Is that something
00:37:10.840 you've heard?
00:37:11.700 I've heard this.
00:37:12.640 I've heard it
00:37:13.760 from single women.
00:37:16.000 They say that men
00:37:16.720 just don't approach them.
00:37:18.080 They just don't.
00:37:19.820 They used to,
00:37:20.660 but they don't.
00:37:22.320 Now,
00:37:22.680 why do you think
00:37:23.360 that is?
00:37:26.280 Let,
00:37:26.800 let me fill you in
00:37:28.020 on what,
00:37:29.100 why men
00:37:29.460 don't approach
00:37:30.800 women.
00:37:31.860 You ready?
00:37:32.580 It only works
00:37:35.020 for handsome people
00:37:36.080 who are tall
00:37:37.940 and have most
00:37:38.560 of their hair
00:37:39.080 or are in good
00:37:40.400 shape at least.
00:37:41.960 If you're a really
00:37:43.140 good looking guy,
00:37:44.420 you can walk up
00:37:45.740 to anybody
00:37:46.280 and they'll be like,
00:37:48.200 oh,
00:37:48.460 maybe.
00:37:50.040 If you're not
00:37:50.920 a good looking guy,
00:37:52.080 which would be
00:37:52.800 95% of the public,
00:37:55.240 you can't walk up
00:37:56.880 to a stranger
00:37:57.560 and get a good reaction
00:37:58.700 because the only thing
00:38:00.380 they have to go on
00:38:01.340 is your dumb
00:38:02.720 opening line,
00:38:03.700 which is always dumb,
00:38:05.040 and what you look like.
00:38:06.620 It doesn't work.
00:38:08.000 Why do you think
00:38:10.320 people put photos
00:38:12.500 on dating apps
00:38:13.400 that don't look
00:38:13.920 anything like
00:38:14.580 they actually look?
00:38:16.320 It's because
00:38:16.860 if they walked up
00:38:17.840 to you in person,
00:38:18.560 you'd say,
00:38:19.020 no thanks.
00:38:21.820 So dating
00:38:22.780 is mostly trickery,
00:38:24.780 you know,
00:38:25.000 trying to fool
00:38:26.140 somebody into
00:38:26.820 being attracted
00:38:27.800 without them knowing
00:38:29.320 that's what you were doing.
00:38:31.240 So I would say
00:38:32.700 that if you're not
00:38:33.860 among the 5%
00:38:35.180 tall and handsome
00:38:36.840 guys,
00:38:37.400 the only way
00:38:38.940 you're going to
00:38:39.720 attract women
00:38:40.700 is to not
00:38:42.300 approach them
00:38:43.040 but rather be
00:38:44.740 talented as something
00:38:46.120 in a public way.
00:38:49.120 If you can be
00:38:50.660 rich and successful
00:38:52.220 in a public way,
00:38:53.920 you will attract
00:38:55.320 all the female attention
00:38:56.400 that you've ever wanted.
00:38:58.320 If you can't show
00:39:00.280 that you have
00:39:00.760 something going on,
00:39:02.120 that you're
00:39:02.780 good at a sport
00:39:04.140 or good at making money
00:39:06.280 or good at something,
00:39:08.140 you're not going to
00:39:09.320 attract anybody.
00:39:11.700 So
00:39:11.940 dancing doesn't work,
00:39:14.500 dating apps don't work,
00:39:15.820 walking up to women
00:39:16.860 doesn't work,
00:39:18.320 but
00:39:18.840 if you've got
00:39:19.640 something going on,
00:39:21.260 women will
00:39:21.920 come up to you.
00:39:23.500 And
00:39:23.920 in my
00:39:24.520 limited dating
00:39:26.340 experience
00:39:27.000 over my lifetime,
00:39:27.940 I've never been
00:39:30.360 confused
00:39:31.180 about whether
00:39:32.360 a woman was
00:39:33.160 interested in me
00:39:34.100 because
00:39:35.400 they show it
00:39:36.760 so obviously.
00:39:38.980 Is that your
00:39:39.900 experience,
00:39:40.740 men?
00:39:41.680 That when a woman
00:39:42.800 is interested in you,
00:39:44.820 you know it
00:39:45.860 so easily.
00:39:48.840 It's never a surprise,
00:39:50.320 is it?
00:39:50.700 So
00:39:52.240 anyway.
00:39:55.320 According to
00:39:56.200 Daniel Greenfield,
00:39:57.680 he's writing
00:39:58.260 that
00:39:59.020 one in three
00:39:59.740 Americans feel
00:40:00.520 lonely every week
00:40:01.640 and one in five
00:40:02.880 feel lonely every day.
00:40:05.360 And
00:40:05.540 less than half
00:40:06.200 of households
00:40:06.720 are headed by
00:40:07.320 married couples
00:40:08.000 now
00:40:08.340 and
00:40:09.300 63%
00:40:10.560 of single people
00:40:11.440 are not looking
00:40:12.860 for a relationship.
00:40:15.180 And
00:40:15.320 this next one
00:40:16.360 is the thing
00:40:16.800 that blows my mind.
00:40:18.200 The majority
00:40:18.920 of Gen Z
00:40:19.800 didn't date
00:40:20.740 as teenagers.
00:40:22.560 They didn't date.
00:40:24.660 Almost
00:40:25.100 two-thirds
00:40:25.860 of the young
00:40:27.380 generation
00:40:27.960 didn't date
00:40:29.500 at all
00:40:30.000 as teenagers.
00:40:32.800 I wonder
00:40:33.560 what that used
00:40:34.140 to be.
00:40:35.840 Well,
00:40:36.720 well,
00:40:38.240 so things
00:40:38.680 are bad
00:40:39.020 there.

00:40:57.260 According to
00:40:58.320 Nick Nolte
00:40:59.500 on Braebar News,
00:41:01.360 during the first
00:41:02.220 half of 2025,
00:41:04.020 reruns
00:41:04.480 of the old
00:41:05.060 Gunsmoke
00:41:05.980 TV show
00:41:06.980 in black and white
00:41:08.260 from,
00:41:08.600 what,
00:41:09.160 the 60s?
00:41:10.920 Reruns
00:41:11.440 of that
00:41:12.040 earned
00:41:13.240 more streaming
00:41:14.040 minutes
00:41:14.460 than any
00:41:15.100 of the
00:41:15.940 Disney
00:41:18.100 syndicate
00:41:19.440 movies.
00:41:22.160 So,
00:41:23.360 I have
00:41:24.140 to confess
00:41:24.840 that recently
00:41:26.280 I sampled
00:41:28.000 some old
00:41:28.920 Gunsmoke
00:41:29.720 TV show
00:41:30.740 on Netflix,
00:41:32.240 I guess,
00:41:32.940 and the
00:41:34.620 reason was
00:41:35.340 that all
00:41:35.840 modern content
00:41:36.800 is terrible,
00:41:37.440 and I
00:41:38.940 discovered
00:41:39.380 that looking
00:41:39.880 at really,
00:41:40.620 really old
00:41:41.340 content
00:41:41.920 is kind
00:41:43.260 of fascinating.
00:41:44.940 It's not
00:41:45.660 entertaining
00:41:46.260 in the
00:41:47.900 traditional
00:41:48.460 modern way,
00:41:49.700 but it's
00:41:50.020 absolutely
00:41:50.420 fascinating
00:41:51.300 to just
00:41:52.180 see the old
00:41:52.720 stats and
00:41:53.420 the way
00:41:54.480 they did
00:41:54.900 things,
00:41:55.420 the way
00:41:55.660 they talked
00:41:56.360 and how
00:41:57.960 rapidly
00:41:58.920 they developed
00:41:59.720 a story
00:42:00.280 instead of
00:42:01.300 making you
00:42:01.860 watch two
00:42:02.740 gay people
00:42:03.240 make out
00:42:03.740 forever
00:42:04.140 so that
00:42:04.980 you can
00:42:05.280 know,
00:42:05.600 okay,
00:42:05.820 I got
00:42:06.120 it,
00:42:06.280 I got
00:42:06.520 it,
00:42:06.660 they like
00:42:07.000 each other,
00:42:07.820 I got
00:42:08.220 it,
00:42:08.500 okay,
00:42:08.880 I got
00:42:09.200 it.
00:42:10.080 So,
00:42:10.680 the old
00:42:11.180 stuff would
00:42:12.420 just skip
00:42:13.020 everything that
00:42:13.680 was boring
00:42:14.260 and just
00:42:15.440 give you
00:42:15.880 like a
00:42:16.300 tight little
00:42:16.780 story.
00:42:17.980 The modern
00:42:18.520 stuff usually
00:42:19.920 has some
00:42:20.380 director who's
00:42:21.340 got power
00:42:21.900 and the
00:42:22.900 director says,
00:42:23.660 oh,
00:42:23.900 no,
00:42:24.800 we need a
00:42:25.860 good ten
00:42:26.260 minutes of
00:42:26.760 these gay
00:42:27.220 people making
00:42:27.840 out,
00:42:28.660 because otherwise
00:42:29.320 how will the
00:42:30.460 audience know
00:42:31.080 how much they
00:42:31.580 like each
00:42:32.040 other?
00:42:32.200 so the
00:42:34.640 old days
00:42:35.060 was much
00:42:35.660 better content
00:42:36.760 even though
00:42:37.460 even the
00:42:38.580 old comedies
00:42:39.900 I was
00:42:40.160 watching like
00:42:40.720 Newhart,
00:42:41.880 I watched
00:42:42.640 Newhart,
00:42:43.600 the original
00:42:44.600 old,
00:42:45.280 very old
00:42:46.000 black and
00:42:46.480 white,
00:42:47.840 because I
00:42:48.660 remember laughing
00:42:49.480 hysterically at
00:42:50.440 it when I
00:42:50.820 was a young
00:42:51.540 child.
00:42:52.840 There are
00:42:53.440 not even
00:42:53.960 any jokes
00:42:54.620 in that
00:42:54.940 thing.
00:42:55.860 By modern
00:42:56.740 standards,
00:42:58.000 there's not
00:42:58.520 a single
00:42:59.200 joke,
00:43:00.220 and it's a
00:43:00.660 comedy.
00:43:01.000 Now that's
00:43:02.140 fascinating to
00:43:02.920 me,
00:43:03.520 to find out
00:43:04.200 what used
00:43:04.720 to be
00:43:05.000 funny,
00:43:06.340 but you
00:43:06.820 would not
00:43:07.720 laugh once.
00:43:09.060 You could
00:43:09.340 watch,
00:43:10.120 I think I
00:43:10.780 watched about
00:43:11.220 several episodes
00:43:12.200 in a row,
00:43:13.680 not one
00:43:14.400 laugh,
00:43:15.360 but yet
00:43:15.920 fascinating
00:43:17.080 to see how
00:43:18.140 they made
00:43:18.520 it in the
00:43:18.840 old days.
00:43:19.260 I liked
00:43:19.580 watching it,
00:43:20.820 but no
00:43:21.440 jokes that
00:43:23.000 you would
00:43:23.280 recognize by
00:43:23.960 today's
00:43:24.400 standards.
00:43:25.980 Well,
00:43:26.360 Trump has
00:43:26.940 signed
00:43:27.220 something called
00:43:27.840 the Halt
00:43:28.440 Fentanyl
00:43:29.120 Act,
00:43:29.520 and it's
00:43:30.760 going to
00:43:31.040 permanently
00:43:31.440 classify all
00:43:32.500 fentanyl-related
00:43:33.580 substances as
00:43:34.580 Schedule 1,
00:43:36.120 and it gives
00:43:36.920 the law
00:43:37.360 enforcement some
00:43:38.160 tools to
00:43:39.160 work on
00:43:39.480 that.
00:43:40.140 That's good.
00:43:41.160 I don't know
00:43:41.560 if that'll
00:43:41.860 make any
00:43:42.260 difference.
00:43:43.360 And
00:43:43.640 separately,
00:43:45.200 you know
00:43:46.020 that China
00:43:47.060 has agreed
00:43:48.060 to do
00:43:49.000 more on
00:43:49.460 fentanyl
00:43:50.000 because they've
00:43:51.140 got a
00:43:51.520 permanent
00:43:51.940 tariff on
00:43:53.500 them.
00:43:54.300 Trump
00:43:54.600 put an
00:43:55.660 extra 20%
00:43:56.800 tariff on
00:43:57.660 China because
00:43:59.140 of fentanyl.
00:44:00.060 They weren't
00:44:00.440 doing enough
00:44:00.880 to stop
00:44:01.300 the flow
00:44:01.680 into the
00:44:02.080 U.S.,
00:44:02.960 the precursor
00:44:03.840 flow.
00:44:05.740 So China
00:44:06.580 has done
00:44:07.580 some things
00:44:08.180 and arrested
00:44:08.640 some people
00:44:09.240 and acted
00:44:10.840 like they're
00:44:11.300 doing something
00:44:11.800 about it.
00:44:12.980 Now,
00:44:13.460 like I
00:44:14.200 said about
00:44:15.740 Trump
00:44:16.300 monetizing
00:44:17.240 the Ukraine
00:44:17.920 war,
00:44:18.860 instead of
00:44:19.440 solving it,
00:44:20.840 he said,
00:44:21.720 well,
00:44:22.020 all right,
00:44:22.620 if you
00:44:23.040 Europeans really
00:44:23.940 want this
00:44:24.700 war to go
00:44:25.440 on,
00:44:26.480 how about
00:44:26.820 we just
00:44:27.220 sell you
00:44:27.680 weapons
00:44:28.060 and we
00:44:28.360 make a
00:44:28.700 profit.
00:44:29.780 So he
00:44:30.380 monetizes
00:44:31.120 the Ukraine
00:44:31.840 Russia war,
00:44:33.160 which I
00:44:34.080 have to
00:44:34.440 admit,
00:44:36.300 is kind
00:44:36.780 of smart,
00:44:38.320 just
00:44:39.740 monetizing
00:44:40.520 it.
00:44:41.180 And then
00:44:41.540 you can
00:44:41.840 wait as
00:44:42.240 long as
00:44:42.620 you want.
00:44:44.000 Like your
00:44:44.660 whole who
00:44:46.440 wants to
00:44:46.920 blink first
00:44:47.660 is totally
00:44:48.980 answered.
00:44:49.960 Well,
00:44:50.240 we're not
00:44:50.560 going to
00:44:50.740 blink.
00:44:51.120 We're making
00:44:51.620 money.
00:44:52.620 We'll just
00:44:53.000 keep making
00:44:53.560 money.
00:44:54.260 If you guys
00:44:54.860 want to keep
00:44:55.320 fighting,
00:44:55.820 go ahead.
00:44:56.820 But now
00:44:59.180 Trump has
00:45:01.340 monetized
00:45:02.020 fentanyl
00:45:02.680 because we
00:45:05.540 assume that
00:45:06.120 China won't
00:45:06.720 do enough
00:45:07.240 to stop
00:45:07.760 the flow
00:45:08.220 because they
00:45:08.980 probably want
00:45:09.620 it to keep
00:45:10.100 going.
00:45:11.280 But we'll
00:45:12.300 just keep
00:45:12.780 charging them
00:45:13.420 20%
00:45:14.240 extra
00:45:14.860 tariff.
00:45:17.720 So do I
00:45:19.400 want the
00:45:19.820 fentanyl trade
00:45:20.540 to be stopped?
00:45:21.460 Yes,
00:45:21.840 of course.
00:45:22.360 But if
00:45:23.480 you know
00:45:23.860 you can't
00:45:24.500 stop it,
00:45:26.440 why not
00:45:27.200 monetize
00:45:27.780 it?
00:45:29.420 Now,
00:45:30.140 Trump could
00:45:30.600 never say
00:45:31.060 that out
00:45:31.600 loud,
00:45:32.660 that he's
00:45:33.000 just
00:45:33.200 monetizing
00:45:33.960 the
00:45:34.360 horrific
00:45:35.460 fentanyl
00:45:37.100 trade because
00:45:38.540 it's killing
00:45:39.040 people like
00:45:39.600 crazy.
00:45:40.780 But if
00:45:42.500 your option
00:45:43.100 is it's
00:45:43.600 going to
00:45:43.900 happen anyway,
00:45:45.600 you might
00:45:46.940 as well
00:45:47.180 monetize
00:45:47.760 it.
00:45:47.980 there's
00:45:49.600 something
00:45:49.860 about that
00:45:50.540 that I
00:45:52.580 hate and
00:45:53.080 I love
00:45:53.420 at the
00:45:53.720 same time.
00:45:54.720 I just
00:45:55.100 love the
00:45:55.540 fact that
00:45:56.460 Trump keeps
00:45:57.020 finding ways
00:45:57.660 to monetize
00:45:58.420 our problems.
00:45:59.560 If you
00:46:00.240 can't solve
00:46:00.820 them,
00:46:02.300 you might
00:46:02.800 as well
00:46:03.060 monetize
00:46:03.660 them,
00:46:04.560 charge
00:46:04.840 other
00:46:05.120 countries
00:46:05.520 for it.
00:46:06.360 Okay.
00:46:09.160 Well,
00:46:09.760 if you're
00:46:10.100 watching the
00:46:10.800 drama with
00:46:12.640 Fed Chair
00:46:13.860 Jerome Powell
00:46:14.580 and Trump
00:46:16.180 wants him
00:46:16.720 to quit,
00:46:17.480 he thought
00:46:18.120 about firing
00:46:18.740 him,
00:46:19.040 but he
00:46:19.280 says he's
00:46:19.740 not going
00:46:20.020 to fire
00:46:20.340 him,
00:46:20.880 which the
00:46:21.840 markets liked
00:46:23.420 because they
00:46:24.200 thought the
00:46:24.560 idea of
00:46:25.320 Powell getting
00:46:26.600 fired for
00:46:27.960 what would
00:46:28.540 be no
00:46:29.740 legitimate
00:46:30.200 cause at
00:46:30.920 this point
00:46:31.420 would be
00:46:32.640 a bad
00:46:33.360 move.
00:46:35.100 So if
00:46:35.440 Trump ever
00:46:37.120 wanted to
00:46:37.640 do that,
00:46:38.520 he says he's
00:46:39.540 backed off
00:46:40.080 it, or he
00:46:41.020 never thought
00:46:41.540 about it,
00:46:41.940 I don't know
00:46:42.280 which, but
00:46:43.000 he says he
00:46:43.620 won't do
00:46:43.920 it.
00:46:44.820 Now the
00:46:45.440 exception
00:46:46.080 would be
00:46:46.720 if they
00:46:47.940 found some
00:46:48.740 malfeasance
00:46:49.580 or corruption
00:46:50.360 or something
00:46:50.880 that we
00:46:51.260 don't know
00:46:51.640 about, and
00:46:52.900 then there
00:46:53.280 would be a
00:46:53.660 reason to
00:46:54.100 do it, and
00:46:54.880 then he
00:46:55.140 could do
00:46:55.420 it.
00:46:59.080 But one
00:46:59.700 of the
00:46:59.940 reasons, the
00:47:00.740 potential
00:47:01.100 reasons, might
00:47:01.820 be that the
00:47:02.440 Fed is
00:47:02.900 building a
00:47:03.760 new
00:47:04.000 headquarters,
00:47:05.440 and I
00:47:05.980 guess it
00:47:06.280 was like
00:47:06.620 $2.5
00:47:07.620 billion they
00:47:08.620 needed just
00:47:09.220 for renovations,
00:47:10.780 and some of it
00:47:11.480 looked a little
00:47:11.980 extreme.
00:47:12.620 So Bill
00:47:14.060 Pulte, he's
00:47:16.220 the head of
00:47:16.840 federal housing,
00:47:18.360 director of
00:47:18.820 federal housing,
00:47:20.240 he's
00:47:21.760 volunteered to
00:47:22.920 take a
00:47:23.420 tour of
00:47:24.920 the
00:47:25.120 construction
00:47:25.780 project,
00:47:26.640 because he's
00:47:27.260 an expert
00:47:27.760 on construction,
00:47:29.040 that's his
00:47:29.440 background, and
00:47:31.020 to let us
00:47:32.280 know if
00:47:32.740 there's anything
00:47:33.240 that looks
00:47:33.700 corrupt there,
00:47:35.080 as in, how
00:47:36.020 could you
00:47:36.360 possibly spend
00:47:37.120 $2.5
00:47:37.920 billion just
00:47:39.900 renovating?
00:47:40.560 I mean, if
00:47:41.980 you were
00:47:42.200 building it
00:47:42.680 from scratch,
00:47:44.320 maybe, but
00:47:45.940 renovating?
00:47:47.780 $2.5
00:47:48.560 billion?
00:47:49.780 And that
00:47:51.280 would be an
00:47:51.940 interesting idea.
00:47:54.220 So if
00:47:54.780 Trump agrees
00:47:55.740 to that, I
00:47:56.560 guess Trump
00:47:57.360 could probably
00:47:57.980 authorize that.
00:47:59.500 You might
00:48:00.220 see Bill
00:48:00.800 Pulte doing
00:48:02.360 a tour of
00:48:03.180 the headquarters
00:48:03.880 construction
00:48:04.600 project, and
00:48:06.380 letting us
00:48:06.980 know if
00:48:07.640 Jerome
00:48:08.340 Paolo should
00:48:08.900 be fired.
00:48:10.560 Now, as
00:48:11.860 far as I
00:48:12.280 can tell,
00:48:13.060 Jerome
00:48:13.440 Paolo would
00:48:14.020 never spend
00:48:14.600 a day in
00:48:15.140 that new
00:48:15.500 headquarters,
00:48:16.140 right?
00:48:16.760 Because his
00:48:17.380 term is over
00:48:18.080 in May, no
00:48:18.980 matter what.
00:48:20.580 And I
00:48:21.820 can't imagine
00:48:22.680 they'd be done
00:48:23.280 with this
00:48:23.680 project by
00:48:24.320 May.
00:48:25.240 So it
00:48:25.980 doesn't seem
00:48:26.520 like he's
00:48:26.980 building this
00:48:27.760 project for
00:48:30.820 his own
00:48:31.320 consumption.
00:48:32.780 But there
00:48:33.880 might be
00:48:34.220 something going
00:48:35.000 wrong here,
00:48:35.600 in terms of
00:48:36.740 who got the
00:48:37.300 contracts, or
00:48:38.300 just essentially
00:48:40.200 managing the
00:48:41.160 project correctly.
00:48:42.400 There may be
00:48:42.740 poor management
00:48:43.480 here.
00:48:45.420 So Bill
00:48:46.040 Pulte might
00:48:46.680 find enough
00:48:47.440 to make a
00:48:49.540 move there,
00:48:50.540 give Trump
00:48:51.340 enough ammunition
00:48:52.160 to make a
00:48:52.720 move.
00:48:53.440 And by the
00:48:53.860 way, if you're
00:48:54.360 not following
00:48:54.960 the career of
00:48:56.100 Bill Pulte,
00:48:56.960 you really
00:48:57.800 should pay
00:48:58.300 attention,
00:48:59.540 because I'm
00:48:59.940 going to tell
00:49:00.360 you right now,
00:49:01.660 he could be
00:49:02.340 one of your
00:49:02.900 future presidents.
00:49:03.820 If you're
00:49:05.680 not already
00:49:06.160 keyed into
00:49:06.800 that idea,
00:49:08.040 start paying
00:49:08.700 attention.
00:49:10.240 He has the
00:49:11.060 full talent
00:49:11.620 stack, and
00:49:13.220 he's clearly
00:49:14.800 highly
00:49:16.920 America
00:49:19.020 first,
00:49:20.520 super patriot,
00:49:22.080 and he
00:49:22.720 doesn't need
00:49:23.180 the job.
00:49:24.680 He's very
00:49:25.600 successful in
00:49:26.520 his life.
00:49:27.680 He doesn't
00:49:28.240 need the
00:49:28.660 work, but
00:49:30.440 he's putting
00:49:30.920 in serious
00:49:32.520 serious work
00:49:33.680 into making
00:49:34.700 our country
00:49:35.240 better.
00:49:36.260 So keep
00:49:36.820 an eye on
00:49:37.240 Bill Pulte.
00:49:38.160 He has the
00:49:39.140 entire talent
00:49:39.940 stack to
00:49:41.240 take it as
00:49:41.720 far as he
00:49:42.240 wants.
00:49:42.760 I don't know
00:49:43.140 how far he
00:49:43.640 wants, but
00:49:44.260 he can go
00:49:45.100 as far as
00:49:45.540 he wants.
00:49:50.280 Let's see.
00:49:51.560 I asked,
00:49:52.380 today is the
00:49:53.100 day that
00:49:53.600 there's a
00:49:54.060 national
00:49:54.660 protest against
00:49:56.420 Trump,
00:49:56.820 right?
00:50:00.560 That is
00:50:01.200 the day,
00:50:01.580 July 17th.
00:50:03.340 They should
00:50:03.740 be doing
00:50:04.420 some national
00:50:05.260 multi-city
00:50:06.640 protests,
00:50:08.080 generic.
00:50:09.020 Now, this
00:50:09.440 would be a
00:50:10.140 paid,
00:50:10.740 professionally
00:50:11.200 organized
00:50:11.720 protest.
00:50:12.360 It's not
00:50:12.740 organic, and
00:50:13.980 so we
00:50:14.300 really shouldn't
00:50:14.960 care about
00:50:15.440 it at all
00:50:15.920 except have
00:50:16.480 fun mocking
00:50:17.020 it.
00:50:17.680 But I
00:50:17.960 asked on
00:50:18.440 X yesterday,
00:50:20.060 what would
00:50:20.440 be a name
00:50:21.160 for these
00:50:21.940 protests that
00:50:23.800 are not
00:50:24.140 organic?
00:50:25.420 You know,
00:50:25.660 they're just
00:50:26.020 Democrat-funded
00:50:28.000 trouble.
00:50:31.460 I started
00:50:32.320 with the
00:50:32.660 idea of
00:50:33.320 pro-pestors.
00:50:35.120 Instead of
00:50:35.980 pro-testors,
00:50:37.800 with a
00:50:38.600 letter T,
00:50:40.420 there would
00:50:40.700 be pester
00:50:41.320 with a
00:50:42.120 P as in
00:50:42.840 puppy.
00:50:44.700 So,
00:50:45.160 pro-pestors.
00:50:46.620 But a number
00:50:47.160 of people had
00:50:47.820 a bunch of
00:50:49.620 other
00:50:49.960 suggestions,
00:50:51.660 so you might
00:50:51.980 want to look
00:50:52.340 at those.
00:50:53.260 They're on my
00:50:53.720 X feed.
00:50:54.200 Well,
00:50:56.340 the Department
00:50:56.740 of Justice
00:50:57.220 fired James
00:50:59.260 Comey's
00:51:00.040 daughter.
00:51:02.080 She was
00:51:02.660 an attorney
00:51:03.200 who worked
00:51:04.080 for the
00:51:05.060 Southern
00:51:05.600 District of
00:51:06.260 New York,
00:51:06.700 I believe,
00:51:07.540 and she
00:51:07.900 handled the
00:51:08.700 Epstein case
00:51:09.700 and the
00:51:10.360 Ghislaine
00:51:11.180 Maxwell case
00:51:12.080 and the
00:51:12.500 Diddy case.
00:51:13.820 There's no
00:51:14.300 word as to
00:51:15.080 why she
00:51:15.740 was fired,
00:51:17.400 but one
00:51:18.160 assumes it's
00:51:19.360 just some
00:51:20.220 kind of a
00:51:20.780 revenge-y
00:51:21.360 thing on
00:51:22.480 top of she
00:51:23.480 would be
00:51:24.080 anti-MAGA
00:51:27.280 and maybe
00:51:28.360 if you were
00:51:29.040 in her
00:51:29.480 crosshairs,
00:51:30.640 you would
00:51:31.520 not get a
00:51:32.060 fair trial.
00:51:32.840 I don't know
00:51:33.220 what the
00:51:33.460 reasons were,
00:51:34.740 but it's
00:51:37.220 not a big
00:51:37.620 surprise,
00:51:38.360 right?
00:51:39.420 It's not the
00:51:40.200 biggest surprise
00:51:40.900 in the world
00:51:41.400 she got fired,
00:51:42.780 and I don't
00:51:43.600 think we need
00:51:44.280 any reasons.
00:51:45.880 Do you
00:51:46.220 care?
00:51:48.200 Obviously,
00:51:48.900 there's a
00:51:50.560 political element
00:51:51.540 to that.
00:51:52.040 well,
00:51:54.520 the estimates
00:51:55.320 for how much
00:51:55.940 the Trump
00:51:56.980 tariffs might
00:51:57.920 bring in,
00:51:59.420 and remember,
00:52:00.060 they're not
00:52:00.420 entirely paid
00:52:01.320 by the
00:52:01.880 foreign countries.
00:52:03.500 They might
00:52:04.220 pay for some
00:52:04.800 of it,
00:52:05.700 but it's
00:52:06.960 paid by the
00:52:07.740 companies in
00:52:08.420 the U.S.
00:52:08.880 who are
00:52:09.100 importing,
00:52:10.560 but the
00:52:12.460 estimate is
00:52:13.220 that it
00:52:14.180 will bring
00:52:14.540 in $300
00:52:15.100 billion in
00:52:16.580 tariff
00:52:17.020 revenue to
00:52:18.160 the government
00:52:18.780 by the
00:52:19.900 end of
00:52:20.440 the year.
00:52:21.760 Now,
00:52:22.020 what if
00:52:22.540 it turns
00:52:25.440 out that
00:52:25.920 it can
00:52:26.220 make,
00:52:26.680 I don't
00:52:27.080 know,
00:52:27.820 half a
00:52:28.340 trillion dollars
00:52:29.140 a year
00:52:29.540 just on
00:52:30.240 nothing but
00:52:31.760 tariffs?
00:52:33.680 Suddenly,
00:52:35.200 you're
00:52:35.760 starting to
00:52:36.360 look like
00:52:36.860 you're
00:52:37.160 balancing
00:52:37.540 the budget.
00:52:38.880 I think
00:52:39.260 there's still
00:52:39.720 a billion and
00:52:40.360 a half,
00:52:41.460 no,
00:52:41.780 a trillion and
00:52:42.520 a half left
00:52:43.100 that they
00:52:43.560 would still
00:52:43.860 need to
00:52:44.240 cover,
00:52:44.500 but you're
00:52:46.920 goosing the
00:52:47.620 economy,
00:52:48.360 you're making
00:52:48.740 some cuts
00:52:49.460 to the
00:52:50.120 budget,
00:52:50.740 we'll talk
00:52:51.160 about that
00:52:51.500 in a minute,
00:52:52.740 you're adding
00:52:53.560 tariff revenue,
00:52:54.940 so Trump
00:52:55.740 is thinking
00:52:56.240 he might be
00:52:57.100 able to get
00:52:57.520 the budget
00:52:59.640 balanced
00:53:00.280 within his
00:53:01.060 term.
00:53:02.080 Do you
00:53:02.360 believe that?
00:53:04.600 You know,
00:53:05.820 I think
00:53:07.220 there were
00:53:07.540 lots of
00:53:07.880 things we
00:53:08.300 didn't believe
00:53:08.860 about tariffs
00:53:09.560 that are
00:53:10.140 turning out
00:53:10.700 to be
00:53:11.140 Trump was
00:53:12.640 right,
00:53:12.940 so I'd
00:53:14.340 hate to
00:53:14.700 say you
00:53:15.080 can't do
00:53:15.680 it,
00:53:16.800 but it's
00:53:19.160 quite a
00:53:19.620 stretch to
00:53:21.300 get the
00:53:21.740 budget
00:53:22.200 balance.
00:53:22.860 Maybe.
00:53:23.620 There's
00:53:23.900 nobody else
00:53:24.420 who I
00:53:24.960 think could
00:53:25.420 come close,
00:53:27.020 so maybe.
00:53:29.080 The former
00:53:30.060 chief of
00:53:30.740 staff to
00:53:31.240 first lady
00:53:31.760 Jill Biden
00:53:32.480 was interviewed
00:53:33.900 by the
00:53:35.440 congressional
00:53:36.120 people who
00:53:37.420 were looking
00:53:37.760 into the
00:53:38.440 auto pen
00:53:38.980 stuff,
00:53:39.820 and he
00:53:40.240 took the
00:53:40.680 fifth.
00:53:41.340 He refused
00:53:42.020 to answer
00:53:42.360 questions.
00:53:42.940 questions about
00:53:44.340 whether the
00:53:44.820 White House
00:53:45.380 concealed Joe
00:53:47.520 Biden's
00:53:48.120 broken brain
00:53:49.220 or not.
00:53:50.820 So let's
00:53:53.000 do an
00:53:54.220 update of
00:53:54.880 all the
00:53:55.540 frauds and
00:53:57.380 hoaxes that
00:53:58.520 we've uncovered
00:53:59.180 from the
00:53:59.720 Democrats.
00:54:00.880 Now, I'm
00:54:01.280 not going to
00:54:01.760 say the
00:54:02.800 Republicans are
00:54:03.660 totally innocent
00:54:04.560 of all bad
00:54:05.440 behavior,
00:54:06.480 but here are
00:54:07.620 just the
00:54:08.020 ones from
00:54:09.220 the Democrat
00:54:09.820 side of
00:54:10.380 things.
00:54:10.720 we have
00:54:12.800 learned that
00:54:13.360 the NGOs
00:54:14.220 were mostly
00:54:15.360 fraudulent
00:54:16.180 money laundering
00:54:17.100 situations.
00:54:18.880 Now, there
00:54:19.160 would be some
00:54:19.780 Republicans
00:54:20.400 involved there
00:54:21.120 too, but
00:54:22.280 the ones we
00:54:22.780 hear about
00:54:23.380 seem to be
00:54:24.660 all Democrat
00:54:26.240 badness.
00:54:28.020 So learning
00:54:28.640 the immense
00:54:30.160 fraud of
00:54:32.340 the NGOs
00:54:33.020 that are
00:54:34.460 getting unwound
00:54:35.400 at this point,
00:54:36.680 that's huge.
00:54:37.400 then we
00:54:38.780 know that
00:54:39.220 our protests,
00:54:40.720 which we
00:54:41.160 used to
00:54:41.400 believe were
00:54:42.180 organic,
00:54:43.120 like Black
00:54:43.680 Lives Matter
00:54:44.320 and we
00:54:45.660 now know
00:54:46.160 that those
00:54:46.660 are just
00:54:47.000 sort of a
00:54:47.960 hoax,
00:54:49.400 fake,
00:54:50.520 organized
00:54:51.180 protests.
00:54:52.900 So we
00:54:54.240 know that
00:54:54.660 now.
00:54:55.560 Now we've
00:54:55.980 got the
00:54:57.200 FBI's looking
00:54:58.120 into the
00:54:59.040 crossfire
00:54:59.940 hurricane thing,
00:55:01.100 which was the
00:55:01.760 idea that
00:55:02.360 Trump colluded
00:55:03.580 with Russia,
00:55:04.660 which we know
00:55:05.620 now was just a
00:55:06.580 hoax perpetrated
00:55:07.560 by the
00:55:08.400 Hillary campaign.
00:55:10.620 And the
00:55:11.480 effort is to
00:55:12.160 find out if
00:55:13.440 there's a
00:55:13.880 case that
00:55:14.440 can be made
00:55:14.940 against Obama
00:55:15.740 and Brennan
00:55:16.380 and the top
00:55:17.500 people in the
00:55:18.020 FBI.
00:55:18.980 And of course,
00:55:19.680 there's already
00:55:20.440 enough information
00:55:21.280 that largely
00:55:22.800 guarantees that
00:55:24.880 it was a
00:55:25.320 plot, which
00:55:27.040 is maybe one
00:55:27.980 of the worst
00:55:28.400 things that's
00:55:28.980 ever happened
00:55:29.460 in this
00:55:29.880 country.
00:55:31.680 Then there's
00:55:32.500 the autopan
00:55:33.340 and Biden's
00:55:34.020 brain and how
00:55:34.800 that was all
00:55:35.340 hidden.
00:55:35.640 That's one
00:55:36.460 of the worst
00:55:36.920 things we've
00:55:37.420 ever seen.
00:55:38.220 Then there was
00:55:38.840 all the law
00:55:39.460 fair against
00:55:40.020 Trump.
00:55:40.980 And yes, I
00:55:41.700 understand that
00:55:42.580 there was a
00:55:43.080 jury and he
00:55:43.960 was guilty of
00:55:44.960 some things,
00:55:45.800 but nobody
00:55:46.360 reasonable thinks
00:55:48.000 that anybody
00:55:48.580 else would have
00:55:49.200 been even
00:55:50.080 brought to
00:55:50.580 trial on any
00:55:51.520 of that stuff.
00:55:52.760 So the law
00:55:53.800 fair against
00:55:54.280 Trump,
00:55:55.880 Democrat plot
00:55:56.940 uncovered.
00:55:58.780 Then there was
00:55:59.580 the fine
00:56:00.820 people hoax
00:56:01.680 hoax that
00:56:02.820 the media
00:56:03.500 contributed
00:56:04.840 to, and
00:56:06.760 Biden actually
00:56:07.520 ran his
00:56:08.740 campaign on
00:56:09.460 the fine
00:56:09.800 people hoax.
00:56:11.780 Then there
00:56:12.400 was the
00:56:12.840 January 6th
00:56:13.900 insurrection
00:56:14.580 hoax, which
00:56:16.200 the entire
00:56:16.780 country doesn't
00:56:17.660 know was a
00:56:18.160 hoax yet, but
00:56:19.220 obviously was.
00:56:20.580 The hoax part
00:56:21.580 is not that
00:56:24.380 there were
00:56:25.020 agents or
00:56:26.340 provocateurs in
00:56:27.380 the audience.
00:56:28.320 There might have
00:56:28.780 been, but I've
00:56:29.620 never been really
00:56:30.280 interested in that
00:56:31.060 part.
00:56:31.680 The part I'm
00:56:32.440 interested in is
00:56:33.980 that the news
00:56:34.720 never talked to
00:56:35.720 anybody who was
00:56:36.500 a protester to
00:56:37.820 ask them why
00:56:38.500 they were
00:56:38.840 protesting.
00:56:40.120 The most basic
00:56:41.400 thing you would
00:56:42.040 want to know
00:56:42.440 about that
00:56:42.860 story, because
00:56:44.320 if you ask
00:56:44.860 them, they
00:56:46.260 would not say,
00:56:47.260 not any of
00:56:48.180 them, well, we
00:56:49.800 know Trump
00:56:50.320 lost, but we
00:56:51.900 wanted to install
00:56:52.800 him like a
00:56:53.420 dictator anyway.
00:56:55.100 Not a single
00:56:55.820 person thought
00:56:56.440 that.
00:56:57.200 They thought
00:56:57.640 that Biden
00:56:58.060 cheated, and
00:56:59.420 they wanted to
00:56:59.940 slow the
00:57:00.260 things down to
00:57:00.960 find out if
00:57:02.380 that were the
00:57:02.840 case.
00:57:04.560 So that
00:57:05.140 turned into
00:57:05.900 massively jailing
00:57:07.880 MAGA people and
00:57:09.020 using it against
00:57:09.860 Trump.
00:57:11.240 So that's one of
00:57:11.740 the worst hoaxes
00:57:12.880 in American
00:57:13.320 history.
00:57:14.040 Then there was
00:57:14.520 a little climate
00:57:15.120 change hoax,
00:57:16.900 which I think at
00:57:17.660 this point you
00:57:18.340 could definitely
00:57:18.820 call a hoax.
00:57:20.980 There was a
00:57:21.700 Hunter Biden
00:57:22.120 laptop thing,
00:57:23.140 the cover-up of
00:57:23.880 the Biden crime
00:57:26.400 family activities.
00:57:28.300 Nothing ever went
00:57:29.300 anywhere on that.
00:57:30.260 And now we've
00:57:31.660 got what Trump
00:57:32.440 calls the
00:57:33.140 Epstein hoax.
00:57:36.700 Now, Epstein,
00:57:37.880 of course, was a
00:57:38.940 real person who
00:57:39.580 did real bad
00:57:40.860 things, so that
00:57:41.960 part's not a
00:57:42.580 hoax.
00:57:43.280 The hoax is
00:57:44.200 that the reason
00:57:45.440 that Trump and
00:57:47.220 company are not
00:57:48.240 giving you more
00:57:48.980 information about
00:57:49.760 it is that
00:57:51.140 they're covering
00:57:51.940 up something, and
00:57:52.860 maybe it's
00:57:53.260 something about
00:57:53.740 Trump himself.
00:57:55.060 Now, that part's
00:57:55.720 a hoax, the part
00:57:57.260 about Trump.
00:57:58.080 There's no evidence
00:57:58.880 that he was
00:57:59.320 involved, other
00:58:00.680 than he knew
00:58:01.400 Jeffrey Epstein
00:58:02.140 until he decided
00:58:03.540 that he had to
00:58:04.480 part ways with
00:58:05.100 him.
00:58:08.900 And then look
00:58:10.200 at the fake
00:58:10.700 news.
00:58:11.340 We've learned
00:58:12.040 in the Trump
00:58:13.040 era that the
00:58:15.040 news was really
00:58:16.500 not even trying
00:58:17.500 to be real.
00:58:18.820 It wasn't even
00:58:19.600 trying to be real,
00:58:20.500 and I don't
00:58:21.500 think everybody
00:58:22.140 knew that.
00:58:23.660 So, when you
00:58:24.260 put all these
00:58:24.840 together, it's
00:58:27.780 the most criminal
00:58:31.180 looking activities
00:58:32.500 I've ever seen
00:58:33.300 in my life.
00:58:34.560 So, the
00:58:35.180 Democrat Party
00:58:36.720 appears to be
00:58:37.780 just a criminal
00:58:38.740 organization.
00:58:40.700 Now, clearly,
00:58:41.800 there are also
00:58:42.320 Republicans who
00:58:43.160 break laws and
00:58:44.180 sometimes in big
00:58:45.860 ways, but I
00:58:47.380 don't know of
00:58:48.680 any major
00:58:49.300 stories that
00:58:51.480 would blame the
00:58:52.180 Republicans for
00:58:53.000 breaking some
00:58:53.700 major laws that
00:58:55.620 are real.
00:58:56.440 I mean, if there
00:58:57.280 are those stories,
00:58:58.100 they're usually
00:58:58.500 hoaxes themselves.
00:58:59.820 So, it's
00:59:01.640 unbelievable that
00:59:02.600 we consider this
00:59:03.560 some kind of a
00:59:04.740 political contest.
00:59:06.680 One side are
00:59:08.520 criminals, top to
00:59:10.540 bottom.
00:59:11.540 They're just
00:59:12.440 criminals.
00:59:14.080 And, you know,
00:59:15.460 they've got these
00:59:16.080 upstanding jobs and
00:59:17.520 stuff, but to me,
00:59:19.760 it looks like a
00:59:20.920 organized criminal
00:59:22.060 enterprise, the
00:59:23.000 Democrat Party.
00:59:24.120 And I mean that
00:59:25.200 with no hyperbole.
00:59:26.680 I gave you the
00:59:28.020 examples, right?
00:59:29.720 If you simply
00:59:30.760 accepted that most
00:59:32.940 of the things I
00:59:34.360 listed, that we
00:59:36.400 do know that the
00:59:37.620 Democrats were
00:59:38.280 involved with, if
00:59:39.300 most of it's true,
00:59:40.320 and most of
00:59:41.180 it's true, of
00:59:41.720 course, it looks
00:59:43.820 like a criminal
00:59:44.540 enterprise.
00:59:45.740 I don't know that
00:59:46.700 you could do the
00:59:47.360 same thing with
00:59:48.700 the Republicans.
00:59:50.060 Could you make
00:59:50.920 the same case that
00:59:52.560 the Republicans are
00:59:53.460 basically a criminal
00:59:54.500 enterprise?
00:59:55.660 I don't feel like
00:59:56.840 you could.
00:59:58.240 When we talk
00:59:58.940 about Republicans,
01:00:00.700 it's usually
01:00:01.380 something like
01:00:02.440 they're fighting
01:00:04.880 with each other
01:00:05.700 about something.
01:00:08.240 It's not that
01:00:09.160 they've organized
01:00:09.960 a multi-year
01:00:11.460 gigantic
01:00:12.660 organized hoax.
01:00:14.840 I don't see
01:00:15.660 that.
01:00:16.560 It's only one
01:00:17.220 side that seems
01:00:17.840 to be doing
01:00:18.280 that.
01:00:20.540 Well, here's a
01:00:21.640 semi-fake news
01:00:23.100 that NPR and
01:00:24.160 PBS funding
01:00:25.880 has been cut
01:00:26.880 by the Senate.
01:00:28.240 Now, of course,
01:00:29.140 the House would
01:00:29.780 have to approve
01:00:31.600 of the tweaks
01:00:32.580 that the Senate
01:00:33.240 made, but we
01:00:34.220 assume that will
01:00:34.820 happen.
01:00:35.120 so the Congress
01:00:37.120 will pull back
01:00:38.720 $9 billion in
01:00:39.780 funding, federal
01:00:40.620 funding, that
01:00:41.800 would have gone
01:00:42.260 to NPR and
01:00:43.020 PBS.
01:00:43.600 Now, the part
01:00:44.000 of it that's
01:00:44.580 fake news is
01:00:46.460 that I think
01:00:47.340 most people
01:00:48.100 assume that's
01:00:48.820 where all the
01:00:49.400 funding comes
01:00:50.060 from.
01:00:50.320 But I think
01:00:51.380 the reality
01:00:51.980 is it's a
01:00:54.640 somewhat
01:00:55.100 smallish
01:00:56.380 percentage of
01:00:57.520 their total
01:00:58.140 operation.
01:00:59.260 So it doesn't
01:01:00.140 mean NPR and
01:01:01.040 PBS will go
01:01:01.860 away.
01:01:02.740 It probably just
01:01:03.300 means they'll
01:01:03.760 work harder on
01:01:04.500 their private
01:01:05.280 fundraising,
01:01:06.360 I guess.
01:01:06.960 President Trump
01:01:11.980 apparently
01:01:13.240 sidestepped
01:01:14.400 some Epstein
01:01:15.120 questions at
01:01:16.020 his latest
01:01:16.820 spray, they
01:01:17.760 call it.
01:01:21.260 Some
01:01:21.500 reporter,
01:01:24.820 CNN reporter
01:01:25.680 asked whether
01:01:26.660 he'd consider
01:01:27.420 appointing a
01:01:28.280 special counsel
01:01:29.200 to look into
01:01:30.760 the Epstein
01:01:32.100 stuff.
01:01:32.880 And I think
01:01:33.360 he's not
01:01:33.880 opposed to
01:01:34.500 it, but
01:01:35.300 maybe he
01:01:35.680 didn't weigh
01:01:36.080 in on it.
01:01:37.380 But he does
01:01:38.280 say, he
01:01:39.960 wants people
01:01:40.460 to move on
01:01:41.180 from that
01:01:41.640 story, and
01:01:43.100 he says that
01:01:43.940 the people
01:01:45.840 demanding the
01:01:46.700 Jeffrey Epstein
01:01:47.460 files be
01:01:48.080 released are
01:01:48.760 quote, stupid
01:01:49.540 and foolish.
01:01:51.300 Now, what's
01:01:52.300 interesting about
01:01:53.040 that is that
01:01:54.080 he's describing
01:01:55.000 about half of
01:01:56.560 his supporters
01:01:57.260 as stupid
01:01:59.360 and foolish.
01:02:01.060 Now, I'm
01:02:01.520 not one of
01:02:02.040 them, meaning
01:02:03.360 that I've not
01:02:04.300 demanded that
01:02:05.000 they release
01:02:05.800 more, because
01:02:06.940 I'm satisfied
01:02:08.080 that we
01:02:09.720 elect people
01:02:10.600 whose job
01:02:11.320 it is to
01:02:11.800 tell us if
01:02:12.360 there's something
01:02:12.760 we need to
01:02:13.380 see, and I
01:02:14.760 like those
01:02:15.400 people, and
01:02:16.680 I think that
01:02:17.440 if they
01:02:18.440 decided we
01:02:19.180 shouldn't see
01:02:19.860 something, I'm
01:02:21.960 okay with that.
01:02:23.040 I don't feel
01:02:23.780 like I'm the
01:02:24.560 backseat driver,
01:02:25.880 where if Dan
01:02:27.600 Bongino says,
01:02:28.880 no, there's
01:02:29.360 nothing here to
01:02:29.880 see, I don't
01:02:30.820 feel like I need
01:02:31.520 to dig into it
01:02:32.340 personally.
01:02:34.600 Didn't we
01:02:35.360 hire Trump
01:02:36.120 to hire
01:02:36.580 people, you
01:02:37.860 know, to
01:02:38.100 appoint people
01:02:38.860 and hire
01:02:39.400 people who
01:02:39.980 would get
01:02:40.600 what we
01:02:41.120 want done?
01:02:42.920 So, there's
01:02:45.200 no guarantee
01:02:45.860 that there
01:02:46.380 isn't some
01:02:46.880 dirty stuff in
01:02:47.680 there that
01:02:47.980 we'd like to
01:02:48.520 see and we
01:02:49.000 should see,
01:02:49.500 but I
01:02:52.320 don't think
01:02:52.740 it's stupid
01:02:53.720 or foolish
01:02:54.320 to ask for
01:02:55.560 it.
01:03:00.340 So, Trump
01:03:02.040 is trying to
01:03:02.560 turn this
01:03:03.000 into another
01:03:03.780 Democrat
01:03:04.320 hoax, and
01:03:05.480 only part of
01:03:06.220 it is a
01:03:06.660 hoax.
01:03:07.060 The hoax is
01:03:07.660 the part that
01:03:08.220 the reason he
01:03:09.180 doesn't want to
01:03:09.680 release things
01:03:10.300 is because he's
01:03:10.960 involved.
01:03:12.140 But suppose
01:03:12.940 they got
01:03:13.600 some kind
01:03:15.220 of special
01:03:15.780 counsel to
01:03:16.600 look into
01:03:17.020 it.
01:03:17.960 Would you
01:03:18.500 be satisfied
01:03:19.440 with whatever
01:03:20.240 the special
01:03:21.160 counsel came
01:03:21.920 up with?
01:03:23.280 Because what
01:03:24.420 would happen
01:03:24.840 if the CIA
01:03:25.640 said, here's
01:03:26.560 the deal,
01:03:27.500 special counsel,
01:03:29.020 it's a state
01:03:31.000 secret and
01:03:32.140 you're not
01:03:32.560 allowed to
01:03:32.980 tell anybody.
01:03:34.520 Could the
01:03:35.000 special counsel
01:03:35.800 say, well,
01:03:37.360 I'm a special
01:03:38.080 counsel, you
01:03:39.020 can't tell me
01:03:39.620 that, I'm
01:03:40.040 going to do
01:03:40.380 it anyway?
01:03:41.380 I don't know.
01:03:42.240 I don't know
01:03:42.980 if a special
01:03:43.700 counsel would
01:03:44.460 get us
01:03:44.900 everything we
01:03:45.440 need to
01:03:45.760 know.
01:03:47.620 Elon Musk
01:03:48.340 is still on
01:03:49.420 this, and
01:03:50.580 he asked
01:03:51.040 Grock on
01:03:52.320 X, he
01:03:53.600 said, there
01:03:54.740 was a leak
01:03:55.240 of cell phone
01:03:55.980 tracking data
01:03:56.760 on the
01:03:57.220 island, Epstein's
01:03:58.180 island, and
01:03:59.240 he asked
01:03:59.600 Grock, can
01:04:00.260 you correlate
01:04:00.780 that with
01:04:01.560 the individuals
01:04:02.220 who visited
01:04:02.920 the island?
01:04:04.780 And then
01:04:05.460 assess the
01:04:05.980 probability that
01:04:06.960 those who
01:04:07.380 went to
01:04:07.680 Epstein
01:04:07.940 island, despite
01:04:10.380 having planes
01:04:11.220 of their own,
01:04:11.800 did so purely
01:04:12.520 to save
01:04:13.000 gas.
01:04:13.460 Grock said,
01:04:17.740 the flight
01:04:18.260 logs show
01:04:19.260 Bill Clinton
01:04:19.980 visited
01:04:20.540 Little St.
01:04:21.240 James 12
01:04:22.560 plus times,
01:04:24.360 Prince Andrew
01:04:25.080 was there
01:04:25.460 multiple times,
01:04:26.280 Alan Dershowitz
01:04:27.040 was the
01:04:29.300 lawyer,
01:04:30.520 Kevin Spacey,
01:04:31.520 Chris Tucker,
01:04:32.580 they have all
01:04:33.120 been there,
01:04:34.140 and Trump
01:04:35.020 flew on the
01:04:35.700 plane seven
01:04:36.440 times, but
01:04:37.140 he never went
01:04:37.640 to the
01:04:37.920 island.
01:04:38.240 So, and
01:04:44.400 then there
01:04:44.680 were a bunch
01:04:45.060 of devices
01:04:45.720 that were
01:04:46.200 logged, and
01:04:46.960 hypothetically,
01:04:48.700 you could find
01:04:49.780 out who was
01:04:50.740 using their
01:04:51.340 cell phone on
01:04:52.280 the island to
01:04:53.260 confirm that
01:04:53.920 they were
01:04:54.160 there.
01:04:54.920 Now, if
01:04:56.240 Bill Clinton
01:04:56.920 went to
01:04:57.540 Little St.
01:04:58.140 James 12
01:04:59.200 times, do
01:05:00.880 you have any
01:05:01.740 question
01:05:02.200 whatsoever
01:05:02.840 about what
01:05:05.160 he did while
01:05:05.800 he was there?
01:05:06.340 Do you
01:05:08.200 really believe
01:05:09.040 that Bill
01:05:09.940 Clinton went
01:05:10.700 to Little
01:05:11.080 St.
01:05:11.500 James without
01:05:12.100 his wife
01:05:12.760 12 times,
01:05:14.840 and that he
01:05:16.720 went there
01:05:17.120 because he
01:05:17.620 liked the
01:05:18.060 beach, or
01:05:20.400 he liked
01:05:20.820 hanging out
01:05:21.280 with his
01:05:21.600 friend?
01:05:24.480 Really?
01:05:26.120 There's
01:05:26.680 actually no
01:05:27.700 other reason
01:05:28.460 that he
01:05:29.460 would have
01:05:29.740 gone there
01:05:30.120 12 times
01:05:30.920 unless he
01:05:33.040 was doing
01:05:33.460 some stuff
01:05:34.080 that maybe
01:05:34.700 you wouldn't
01:05:35.380 want to
01:05:35.660 know.
01:05:36.340 So, I'm
01:05:38.260 wondering if
01:05:39.320 Bill Clinton
01:05:40.020 is the
01:05:40.600 reason that
01:05:41.360 these files
01:05:42.280 are not
01:05:42.760 fully
01:05:43.140 disclosed.
01:05:44.600 Do you
01:05:45.240 think it's
01:05:45.640 Bill Clinton?
01:05:47.540 It might
01:05:48.440 be, because
01:05:49.900 he would be
01:05:50.760 certainly
01:05:51.580 somebody that
01:05:52.600 the entire
01:05:53.340 Democrat
01:05:54.000 machine would
01:05:56.360 want to
01:05:56.780 protect,
01:05:57.680 because it
01:05:58.140 would be a
01:05:58.500 way of
01:05:58.740 protecting
01:05:59.120 Hillary at
01:05:59.780 the same
01:06:00.080 time, and
01:06:01.280 sort of
01:06:02.080 protecting the
01:06:02.740 Democrats in
01:06:03.440 general.
01:06:03.680 people, but
01:06:04.740 I feel
01:06:05.960 like if
01:06:08.180 we know
01:06:08.580 that Bill
01:06:08.960 Clinton went
01:06:09.660 to the
01:06:09.920 island 12
01:06:10.540 times, and
01:06:12.100 then nothing
01:06:12.640 is being
01:06:13.140 released to
01:06:13.800 us, as
01:06:14.660 in nothing
01:06:15.060 happened,
01:06:16.520 come on.
01:06:19.520 Let's be
01:06:20.280 serious.
01:06:22.660 At the very
01:06:23.660 least, they're
01:06:25.200 covering up for
01:06:25.940 Bill Clinton.
01:06:27.100 Would you
01:06:27.580 agree?
01:06:28.320 Whatever else
01:06:29.380 they're covering
01:06:29.900 up for, I
01:06:31.020 don't know.
01:06:32.220 But if
01:06:32.860 you're telling
01:06:33.240 me that
01:06:33.660 they're not
01:06:34.120 covering up
01:06:34.680 for the
01:06:34.960 guy who
01:06:35.320 went there
01:06:35.700 12 times
01:06:36.420 with Anna's
01:06:36.940 wife, 12
01:06:38.080 times.
01:06:40.720 I mean, let's
01:06:41.580 be serious.
01:06:43.800 Of course he
01:06:44.980 was involved in
01:06:45.700 things he
01:06:46.120 doesn't want
01:06:46.620 you to know
01:06:47.000 about.
01:06:47.980 I mean, I
01:06:48.400 feel like it's
01:06:49.000 just screamingly
01:06:49.860 obvious.
01:06:52.020 The people who
01:06:53.040 were on
01:06:53.460 Epstein's
01:06:54.100 plane, like
01:06:55.260 Trump, I
01:06:56.640 feel, you
01:06:58.140 know, there's
01:06:58.640 no direct
01:06:59.420 evidence that he
01:07:00.100 did anything
01:07:00.640 illegal on
01:07:01.580 the plane.
01:07:02.920 And I
01:07:03.680 guess I
01:07:04.000 lived in
01:07:04.360 about the
01:07:04.740 same place
01:07:05.260 and traveled
01:07:05.760 back to
01:07:06.220 New York
01:07:06.660 City a lot.
01:07:08.120 So sometimes
01:07:08.800 it was just,
01:07:10.280 I don't know,
01:07:11.080 just easier or
01:07:12.300 wanted to hang
01:07:13.220 out with his
01:07:13.660 friend or
01:07:14.180 whatever.
01:07:14.920 I don't
01:07:15.100 know.
01:07:17.840 But what we
01:07:18.620 know from
01:07:19.120 Dershowitz is
01:07:20.420 that there was
01:07:20.820 no client list
01:07:21.800 per se.
01:07:22.380 Remember,
01:07:22.800 Dershowitz was
01:07:23.480 Epstein's lawyer,
01:07:24.400 so he knows
01:07:24.820 more than we
01:07:25.360 do.
01:07:26.280 He knows the
01:07:27.040 names of the
01:07:27.600 accused, so
01:07:28.860 there are people
01:07:29.460 who have not
01:07:29.880 been named to
01:07:30.480 have been
01:07:30.780 accused.
01:07:32.100 He says
01:07:32.780 that Trump
01:07:33.200 is definitely
01:07:33.800 not accused.
01:07:35.240 There's nothing
01:07:35.780 about Trump
01:07:36.320 there.
01:07:36.760 That's an
01:07:37.100 accusation in
01:07:37.860 the files.
01:07:39.260 And he
01:07:41.440 believes that
01:07:42.000 the CIA were
01:07:43.500 not involved
01:07:44.200 with Epstein
01:07:44.800 because Epstein
01:07:46.300 would have
01:07:46.760 mentioned it
01:07:47.440 to his
01:07:48.200 lawyer, who
01:07:49.440 was Dershowitz,
01:07:50.640 if he wanted
01:07:51.600 to have the
01:07:52.420 best leniency.
01:07:53.940 To which I
01:07:55.140 say,
01:07:55.700 really?
01:07:56.320 Do you
01:07:57.900 believe that
01:07:58.940 the CIA
01:08:00.040 would agree
01:08:02.020 that he
01:08:02.540 was working,
01:08:03.420 that they
01:08:03.780 were working
01:08:04.200 with Epstein
01:08:04.740 if the
01:08:06.100 topic was
01:08:06.960 underage
01:08:07.620 children?
01:08:09.060 I don't
01:08:10.000 think so.
01:08:11.000 I think
01:08:12.020 that if the
01:08:12.820 CIA were
01:08:13.880 involved in
01:08:14.500 that operation,
01:08:16.420 that if
01:08:18.080 Epstein gave
01:08:18.980 up the
01:08:19.440 CIA and
01:08:20.160 said,
01:08:20.300 not only
01:08:23.020 is Epstein
01:08:23.700 himself doing
01:08:24.660 these illegal
01:08:25.540 underage
01:08:26.220 women things,
01:08:27.280 but the
01:08:28.040 CIA is
01:08:28.720 part of
01:08:29.000 the operation.
01:08:30.620 Do you
01:08:30.980 think he
01:08:31.340 would throw
01:08:31.680 the CIA
01:08:32.260 under the
01:08:32.820 bus and
01:08:33.560 say,
01:08:33.840 yeah,
01:08:34.020 they're
01:08:34.200 trafficking
01:08:34.680 children?
01:08:36.000 If they
01:08:36.740 were.
01:08:37.200 I'm not
01:08:37.580 saying they
01:08:38.040 were.
01:08:38.960 But if
01:08:39.340 they were?
01:08:40.500 So I'm
01:08:41.100 not buying
01:08:41.780 Dershowitz's
01:08:43.620 explanation on
01:08:44.520 this.
01:08:45.420 I'm not
01:08:45.800 buying the
01:08:46.240 explanation
01:08:46.800 that if he
01:08:47.680 was working
01:08:48.180 with the CIA,
01:08:49.260 he would have
01:08:49.820 mentioned it.
01:08:50.620 You would
01:08:51.140 mention it
01:08:51.760 if you were
01:08:52.580 working with
01:08:53.060 the CIA to
01:08:54.040 spy on
01:08:54.800 Russia.
01:08:56.000 Well, then
01:08:56.400 you would
01:08:56.660 mention it.
01:08:57.540 Or to
01:08:58.400 get secrets
01:08:59.760 from China.
01:09:01.420 Well, then
01:09:01.860 you would
01:09:02.120 definitely
01:09:02.400 mention it
01:09:02.940 to your
01:09:03.240 lawyer.
01:09:04.340 But if
01:09:04.620 the context
01:09:05.460 is did
01:09:06.560 you do
01:09:06.920 some of
01:09:07.200 the worst
01:09:07.640 things that
01:09:08.300 the public
01:09:08.760 can imagine,
01:09:10.320 sex trafficking
01:09:11.300 of minors,
01:09:12.860 do you think
01:09:13.420 that even
01:09:14.580 Epstein would
01:09:15.300 give up
01:09:15.660 the CIA?
01:09:17.940 Because it
01:09:18.580 seems like
01:09:18.960 they would
01:09:19.260 have to
01:09:19.580 kill him
01:09:19.980 if he
01:09:20.220 did.
01:09:21.720 Well.
01:09:22.600 When I
01:09:22.920 found out
01:09:23.340 my friend
01:09:23.820 got a
01:09:24.160 great deal
01:09:24.780 on a
01:09:25.120 wool coat
01:09:25.540 from
01:09:25.760 Winners,
01:09:26.380 I started
01:09:27.140 wondering,
01:09:28.040 is every
01:09:28.880 fabulous item
01:09:29.660 I see
01:09:30.080 from Winners?
01:09:31.180 Like that
01:09:31.680 woman over
01:09:32.160 there with
01:09:32.620 the designer
01:09:33.060 jeans.
01:09:33.900 Are those
01:09:34.480 from Winners?
01:09:35.420 Ooh,
01:09:36.040 or those
01:09:36.380 beautiful gold
01:09:36.980 earrings?
01:09:37.880 Did she
01:09:38.140 pay full
01:09:38.440 price?
01:09:39.200 Or that
01:09:39.480 leather tote?
01:09:40.240 Or that
01:09:40.480 cashmere
01:09:40.840 sweater?
01:09:41.420 Or those
01:09:41.760 knee-high
01:09:42.060 boots?
01:09:42.900 That dress?
01:09:43.680 That jacket?
01:09:44.360 Those shoes?
01:09:45.380 Is anyone
01:09:46.160 paying full
01:09:46.800 price for
01:09:47.360 anything?
01:09:47.880 Stop
01:09:48.800 wondering.
01:09:49.620 Start winning.
01:09:50.540 Winners find
01:09:51.340 fabulous for
01:09:52.160 less.
01:09:52.520 And then
01:09:54.180 I guess
01:09:56.300 I would
01:09:56.620 take some
01:09:57.620 fact-checking
01:10:00.020 on this
01:10:00.340 next point
01:10:00.940 I'm going
01:10:01.240 to make.
01:10:02.240 Did
01:10:02.460 Dershowitz
01:10:03.020 say that
01:10:04.460 Epstein
01:10:04.800 was not
01:10:05.340 involved
01:10:05.720 with an
01:10:06.160 intelligence
01:10:06.740 entity
01:10:07.400 because he
01:10:08.120 would have
01:10:08.460 told Dershowitz
01:10:09.840 so he
01:10:10.180 could get
01:10:10.500 a better
01:10:10.820 deal?
01:10:12.160 But would
01:10:12.560 that include
01:10:13.240 if he
01:10:13.660 worked with
01:10:14.200 Mossad?
01:10:16.180 If
01:10:16.720 Epstein
01:10:17.660 had worked
01:10:18.340 with Mossad,
01:10:19.500 and I don't
01:10:20.080 know that he
01:10:20.560 did,
01:10:20.860 but if
01:10:21.840 he did,
01:10:22.820 how would
01:10:23.620 that get
01:10:24.000 him a
01:10:24.300 better
01:10:24.640 plea deal
01:10:25.680 in the
01:10:26.620 United States?
01:10:28.720 That doesn't
01:10:29.560 seem connected,
01:10:30.420 does it?
01:10:31.620 So can
01:10:32.260 Dershowitz
01:10:32.760 really say,
01:10:33.860 well,
01:10:34.920 and he
01:10:35.460 didn't say
01:10:35.900 this,
01:10:36.680 but could
01:10:37.260 he say,
01:10:38.100 I know he
01:10:38.860 wasn't working
01:10:39.460 with Mossad
01:10:40.380 or MI6
01:10:42.360 or the
01:10:42.800 Saudis
01:10:43.280 because he
01:10:44.300 would have
01:10:44.560 mentioned it
01:10:45.080 to be his
01:10:45.660 lawyer so he
01:10:46.540 could get a
01:10:46.960 better deal?
01:10:47.500 How would
01:10:48.520 you get a
01:10:48.920 better deal
01:10:49.500 if you
01:10:50.600 were working
01:10:50.960 for the
01:10:51.320 intelligence
01:10:51.720 agency of
01:10:52.640 another
01:10:52.980 country?
01:10:54.760 That would
01:10:55.500 be the
01:10:55.840 opposite of
01:10:56.420 getting a
01:10:56.840 good deal,
01:10:57.860 right?
01:11:00.700 So I
01:11:02.560 feel like
01:11:03.060 Dershowitz is
01:11:03.920 finding some
01:11:04.620 clever ways
01:11:05.720 to say that
01:11:08.240 Epstein didn't
01:11:09.100 have that
01:11:09.760 intelligence
01:11:10.580 contact,
01:11:11.980 but it
01:11:13.920 doesn't sound
01:11:14.380 believable.
01:11:14.900 So judge
01:11:18.660 for yourself.
01:11:21.520 All right.
01:11:23.660 And then
01:11:24.220 Mike Benz,
01:11:25.240 who's also
01:11:26.140 on the
01:11:26.680 case here
01:11:27.280 with the
01:11:27.580 Epstein
01:11:27.860 story,
01:11:28.720 he notes
01:11:29.360 that there
01:11:30.140 is a
01:11:30.520 normal and
01:11:31.100 routine
01:11:31.400 thing that
01:11:32.080 the press
01:11:32.760 does and
01:11:33.580 the CIA
01:11:34.060 does when
01:11:35.160 somebody is
01:11:36.120 alleged to
01:11:37.880 have worked
01:11:38.420 with them.
01:11:39.500 Apparently
01:11:39.900 there's a
01:11:40.420 database that
01:11:41.780 you can
01:11:42.220 search for
01:11:42.840 somebody's
01:11:43.220 name to
01:11:44.160 find out
01:11:44.700 if they
01:11:45.080 work for
01:11:45.480 the CIA.
01:11:46.820 Now I
01:11:47.380 think only
01:11:47.760 the CIA
01:11:48.300 has access
01:11:49.040 to it,
01:11:49.760 but it's
01:11:50.620 fairly routine
01:11:51.380 that people
01:11:51.800 get blamed
01:11:52.440 as being
01:11:53.040 a CIA
01:11:54.060 asset.
01:11:55.400 So the
01:11:55.740 CIA also
01:11:56.640 doesn't
01:11:57.100 know,
01:11:58.280 you know,
01:11:58.660 at some
01:11:59.180 levels of
01:11:59.680 management,
01:12:00.100 they don't
01:12:00.380 even know
01:12:00.760 who's
01:12:00.960 working there
01:12:01.560 because there's
01:12:02.280 so many
01:12:02.600 secrets.
01:12:03.500 So they
01:12:04.080 have a
01:12:04.360 system where
01:12:05.660 if there's
01:12:06.000 something in
01:12:06.420 the news
01:12:06.880 that says
01:12:07.380 some character
01:12:08.400 works for
01:12:08.920 the CIA,
01:12:10.060 they can
01:12:10.380 type that
01:12:10.800 person's
01:12:11.240 name into
01:12:11.640 their database
01:12:12.360 and then
01:12:13.440 they can
01:12:13.760 make a
01:12:14.140 statement
01:12:14.440 later saying
01:12:15.120 no,
01:12:15.580 he's not
01:12:15.980 ours.
01:12:17.280 Or if it
01:12:18.140 is theirs,
01:12:18.680 they can
01:12:18.900 say,
01:12:19.620 no comment.
01:12:22.120 And Mike
01:12:23.140 Benz has
01:12:23.640 some way
01:12:24.220 that he can
01:12:25.080 check to
01:12:25.700 find out
01:12:26.260 that there
01:12:27.900 has been
01:12:28.200 no name
01:12:28.800 search for
01:12:29.420 Jeffrey Epstein
01:12:30.240 despite it
01:12:31.460 being the
01:12:31.880 main question
01:12:32.580 that's been
01:12:33.040 in the news
01:12:33.600 for years.
01:12:34.200 and he's
01:12:36.400 having trouble
01:12:37.240 believing
01:12:37.720 that this
01:12:39.460 search was
01:12:40.440 never done
01:12:41.000 because it's
01:12:41.560 the most
01:12:41.880 routine thing
01:12:42.680 you would
01:12:43.000 do and
01:12:43.940 since it's
01:12:44.420 such a
01:12:44.760 high-profile
01:12:45.340 case,
01:12:45.800 of course
01:12:46.260 you would
01:12:46.560 do it
01:12:46.800 on this
01:12:47.100 one.
01:12:48.040 But the
01:12:48.680 evidence
01:12:49.060 is it
01:12:50.820 wasn't
01:12:51.140 done.
01:12:51.980 Why would
01:12:52.640 that be?
01:12:54.220 Well,
01:12:54.860 we can only
01:12:55.660 think of
01:12:56.000 one reason.
01:13:00.300 Trump was
01:13:01.020 meeting with
01:13:01.560 the crown
01:13:02.120 prince of
01:13:02.640 Bahrain
01:13:03.020 who really
01:13:03.700 looked like
01:13:04.160 he liked
01:13:04.580 Trump.
01:13:05.440 You know,
01:13:05.600 they were
01:13:05.820 sitting together
01:13:06.480 in the
01:13:06.740 Oval Office
01:13:07.320 and whatever
01:13:08.300 Trump turned
01:13:09.000 to him,
01:13:09.900 he would have
01:13:10.240 this big
01:13:10.620 smile on his
01:13:11.360 face and
01:13:12.540 he laughed
01:13:13.420 at his jokes
01:13:14.020 and stuff.
01:13:14.920 So he looks
01:13:15.600 like he's
01:13:16.000 getting along
01:13:16.560 with Trump
01:13:16.960 well.
01:13:18.200 But Trump
01:13:18.900 answered
01:13:19.220 questions about
01:13:20.080 all manner
01:13:20.620 of things
01:13:21.060 and he said
01:13:21.560 that the
01:13:22.660 press should
01:13:23.080 be focusing
01:13:23.720 on Biden
01:13:24.340 and the
01:13:24.780 auto pen
01:13:25.360 not the
01:13:26.040 Epstein
01:13:26.360 stuff.
01:13:27.460 All right,
01:13:27.860 here's the
01:13:28.280 thing.
01:13:29.800 When Trump
01:13:30.700 tries so hard
01:13:31.660 to tell us
01:13:32.240 that we should
01:13:32.760 not talk
01:13:33.260 about Epstein,
01:13:35.220 isn't he
01:13:35.820 winking as
01:13:36.500 hard as
01:13:36.880 you can?
01:13:37.820 Yes,
01:13:38.240 there are
01:13:38.600 secrets there.
01:13:40.020 I know the
01:13:40.780 secrets.
01:13:41.760 I'm not going
01:13:42.580 to tell you
01:13:43.160 and I'm not
01:13:44.060 even going to
01:13:44.440 tell you why
01:13:44.960 I can't tell
01:13:45.620 you.
01:13:46.400 Let's just
01:13:47.040 please move
01:13:47.680 on.
01:13:48.980 So when I
01:13:49.940 agree with
01:13:52.120 that strategy
01:13:52.960 of moving
01:13:54.620 on,
01:13:55.520 people say,
01:13:56.400 oh,
01:13:56.900 you're covering
01:13:57.660 up for the,
01:13:58.900 what are you
01:13:59.520 doing?
01:13:59.780 You're covering
01:14:00.160 up for the
01:14:00.600 pedos.
01:14:01.860 No.
01:14:02.920 I'm simply
01:14:03.560 saying that if
01:14:04.300 we'll never
01:14:04.700 know the
01:14:05.060 real answer,
01:14:06.400 we should
01:14:06.960 default to a
01:14:08.300 process you're
01:14:09.540 comfortable with.
01:14:10.740 A process that
01:14:12.060 I'm comfortable
01:14:12.660 with is that
01:14:14.040 we elected
01:14:15.060 people to
01:14:16.640 make these
01:14:17.120 decisions for
01:14:18.040 us.
01:14:18.760 And apparently
01:14:19.580 Trump has
01:14:20.220 made the
01:14:20.660 decision for
01:14:21.480 us that we're
01:14:22.820 not going to
01:14:23.240 see much
01:14:23.780 more.
01:14:24.780 Even though
01:14:25.520 he acts like
01:14:26.800 he's open to
01:14:27.440 it, I don't
01:14:28.600 think we'll
01:14:29.180 see more.
01:14:31.160 Whatever it
01:14:31.920 is that he's
01:14:32.700 covering up,
01:14:34.340 and obviously
01:14:35.020 he's covering
01:14:35.540 up something,
01:14:36.520 is important.
01:14:38.100 And we
01:14:38.860 hired him to
01:14:39.720 make the
01:14:40.180 important
01:14:40.520 decisions for
01:14:41.320 us.
01:14:41.760 We did not
01:14:42.500 hire him to
01:14:43.160 tell us
01:14:43.540 everything that
01:14:44.120 he knows.
01:14:45.380 Because there
01:14:46.100 would be lots
01:14:46.560 of topics where
01:14:47.260 he knows things
01:14:47.920 you're not
01:14:48.280 supposed to
01:14:48.720 know.
01:14:49.840 So that's
01:14:52.700 my summary.
01:14:53.320 If we
01:14:55.020 can't know
01:14:55.560 for sure,
01:14:56.400 and we
01:14:56.760 can't,
01:14:57.920 what's the
01:14:58.480 real story?
01:14:59.280 The only
01:15:00.000 thing you can
01:15:00.620 be comfortable
01:15:01.140 with is who's
01:15:02.060 in charge of
01:15:03.660 deciding if
01:15:04.380 you know.
01:15:05.680 And it's
01:15:06.100 Trump.
01:15:07.180 I'm
01:15:07.780 comfortable
01:15:08.340 knowing that
01:15:09.780 he's lying.
01:15:12.220 Can anybody
01:15:13.060 else say the
01:15:13.700 same thing?
01:15:14.320 I know he's
01:15:15.060 lying.
01:15:15.460 He's obviously
01:15:16.120 lying.
01:15:17.740 It could not
01:15:18.740 be more
01:15:19.160 obvious.
01:15:19.980 It's so
01:15:20.580 obvious that
01:15:21.300 he's lying
01:15:21.960 that it
01:15:23.200 makes it
01:15:23.680 feel like
01:15:24.360 he wants
01:15:24.780 us to
01:15:25.120 know he's
01:15:25.500 lying.
01:15:26.660 Because it's
01:15:27.440 easier for me
01:15:28.220 to move on
01:15:28.960 if I know
01:15:29.780 he's lying.
01:15:31.820 Right?
01:15:33.080 Because if I
01:15:33.880 know he's
01:15:34.460 decided to
01:15:36.340 keep it from
01:15:36.960 me and
01:15:37.660 the public,
01:15:39.040 then I say,
01:15:40.040 well, that's
01:15:40.340 your decision.
01:15:42.520 You get to
01:15:43.380 make that
01:15:43.740 decision.
01:15:44.640 And then I'm
01:15:45.180 willing to
01:15:45.580 move on.
01:15:47.900 Would
01:15:48.380 justice be
01:15:49.140 served?
01:15:49.720 Probably not.
01:15:50.480 Trump also
01:15:53.720 has this
01:15:54.120 new phrase
01:15:54.660 he uses
01:15:55.120 a lot,
01:15:55.780 that the
01:15:56.260 U.S.
01:15:57.000 was considered
01:15:57.700 a dead
01:15:58.300 country before
01:15:59.120 he got
01:15:59.480 in.
01:16:00.180 Nothing was
01:16:00.680 happening.
01:16:01.460 And now
01:16:01.840 it's the
01:16:02.220 hottest
01:16:02.500 country.
01:16:03.820 That is
01:16:04.220 good
01:16:04.540 persuasion.
01:16:05.720 He says
01:16:06.180 it a lot,
01:16:06.800 so it's
01:16:07.140 really sinking
01:16:07.700 in.
01:16:08.480 So he's
01:16:09.080 persuading
01:16:09.860 other
01:16:10.300 countries
01:16:10.920 that might
01:16:12.080 want to
01:16:12.440 invest with
01:16:13.020 the U.S.
01:16:13.540 or get
01:16:14.540 on board
01:16:14.920 with us.
01:16:15.940 He's
01:16:16.380 persuading
01:16:18.240 them with
01:16:18.660 his hypnosis
01:16:19.340 that were
01:16:21.080 not like
01:16:21.520 we used
01:16:21.880 to be.
01:16:22.580 And now
01:16:22.880 the U.S.
01:16:24.820 is the
01:16:25.160 place to
01:16:25.600 invest and
01:16:26.320 the one
01:16:27.080 to follow
01:16:27.560 and the
01:16:27.960 one that's
01:16:28.300 doing all
01:16:28.720 the good
01:16:29.040 stuff.
01:16:29.700 And there's
01:16:30.220 a basis
01:16:30.640 for that.
01:16:31.580 So it's
01:16:31.980 not like
01:16:32.340 it's a
01:16:32.700 crazy thing
01:16:33.360 to say.
01:16:34.060 So I
01:16:34.320 love his
01:16:34.700 persuasion
01:16:35.260 on that,
01:16:35.840 from dead
01:16:36.240 to hottest.
01:16:38.920 Let's
01:16:39.400 compare that
01:16:40.620 to one
01:16:41.880 of the
01:16:42.440 stars of
01:16:43.580 the Democrat
01:16:44.040 Party,
01:16:44.620 Stacey
01:16:44.960 Abrams,
01:16:45.800 who is
01:16:46.540 now calling
01:16:47.120 Trump an
01:16:47.780 autocrat.
01:16:50.360 All right?
01:16:51.640 Compare
01:16:52.120 these two
01:16:53.160 persuasions.
01:16:55.020 The U.S.
01:16:55.640 went from
01:16:56.060 a dead
01:16:56.520 country to
01:16:57.640 the hottest
01:16:58.140 country.
01:16:59.660 Okay,
01:16:59.900 that's just
01:17:00.360 A+.
01:17:00.940 Because
01:17:02.320 everybody knows
01:17:03.020 what dead
01:17:03.460 means,
01:17:03.940 everybody knows
01:17:04.480 what hottest
01:17:04.920 means,
01:17:05.960 and there's
01:17:06.440 enough basis
01:17:07.560 that people
01:17:08.080 can say,
01:17:08.480 yeah,
01:17:08.640 I can see
01:17:09.060 that.
01:17:09.900 I see
01:17:10.500 why you're
01:17:10.880 saying that.
01:17:12.260 But when
01:17:12.700 Stacey
01:17:13.000 Abrams says
01:17:13.760 Trump is
01:17:14.220 an autocrat,
01:17:15.200 why don't
01:17:16.380 you go do
01:17:17.240 an interview
01:17:17.720 on the
01:17:18.120 street and
01:17:19.120 ask people
01:17:19.660 if they
01:17:19.980 know what
01:17:20.360 an autocrat
01:17:21.120 is.
01:17:21.860 If they
01:17:22.520 do,
01:17:23.600 give them
01:17:24.040 question number
01:17:24.740 two,
01:17:25.520 do you know
01:17:25.920 what an
01:17:26.260 oligarch
01:17:26.800 is?
01:17:27.780 Probably
01:17:28.240 not.
01:17:29.760 Number
01:17:30.240 three,
01:17:31.140 what does
01:17:31.640 it mean
01:17:31.980 to be
01:17:32.260 an
01:17:32.440 authoritarian?
01:17:35.740 Maybe
01:17:36.220 a third
01:17:37.740 of the
01:17:38.060 country
01:17:38.380 knows
01:17:38.840 what that
01:17:39.440 means.
01:17:39.860 What about
01:17:40.160 the plutocrats?
01:17:41.920 Yeah,
01:17:42.100 what about
01:17:42.380 the plutocrats?
01:17:43.380 Why is it
01:17:45.020 the Democrats
01:17:45.980 have no
01:17:47.140 sense
01:17:47.620 whatsoever
01:17:48.320 of what
01:17:49.720 a regular
01:17:50.440 human being
01:17:51.240 would be
01:17:51.680 persuaded
01:17:52.200 by?
01:17:54.400 Pencrats,
01:17:55.180 that's
01:17:55.400 funny.
01:17:56.180 Otto
01:17:56.400 Pencrats.
01:17:59.580 Well,
01:18:00.320 Trump says
01:18:01.020 that Coca-Cola
01:18:02.500 has agreed
01:18:03.580 with his
01:18:04.160 suggestion
01:18:04.640 to make
01:18:06.060 America
01:18:06.420 healthy again
01:18:07.100 by removing
01:18:07.800 what they
01:18:08.760 were using
01:18:09.180 for sugar
01:18:09.800 and putting
01:18:10.280 in real
01:18:10.700 cane sugar.
01:18:12.280 So I
01:18:12.660 guess that's
01:18:13.220 for the
01:18:13.640 non-diet
01:18:14.440 version
01:18:14.860 of Coke.
01:18:16.340 But I
01:18:17.940 was not
01:18:18.400 aware
01:18:18.720 that whatever
01:18:20.840 Coca-Cola
01:18:21.940 was using
01:18:22.580 instead of
01:18:23.180 real cane
01:18:23.760 sugar,
01:18:24.560 I was not
01:18:25.260 aware that
01:18:25.740 it's
01:18:26.140 dangerous
01:18:27.200 and that
01:18:29.260 real cane
01:18:29.980 sugar would
01:18:30.640 be healthy.
01:18:32.960 So I
01:18:33.880 don't understand
01:18:34.460 that story
01:18:35.060 at all.
01:18:36.020 But if
01:18:37.120 RFK Jr.
01:18:37.980 agrees that
01:18:38.820 this would
01:18:39.180 make that
01:18:39.600 drink
01:18:39.940 healthier,
01:18:41.240 all right.
01:18:45.460 Okay.
01:18:46.220 But I
01:18:46.700 do like
01:18:47.200 when Trump
01:18:47.820 brags about
01:18:48.560 successes
01:18:49.260 because that
01:18:50.400 feeds into
01:18:51.360 his we're
01:18:51.840 the hottest
01:18:52.200 country and
01:18:53.000 everything's
01:18:53.480 going right.
01:18:54.520 And I
01:18:54.820 love it
01:18:55.100 when he
01:18:55.320 does that.
01:18:55.800 I love
01:18:56.060 it when
01:18:56.320 Trump is
01:18:56.740 a salesperson
01:18:57.640 for the
01:18:58.020 country,
01:18:58.900 which is
01:19:00.000 a lot like
01:19:00.620 being a
01:19:01.020 salesperson
01:19:01.600 for his
01:19:02.020 own
01:19:02.360 administration.
01:19:05.260 He should
01:19:05.860 be doing
01:19:06.240 that and
01:19:07.220 he should
01:19:07.540 be talking
01:19:08.000 it up like
01:19:08.560 crazy and
01:19:09.660 nobody does
01:19:10.240 it better.
01:19:11.140 He is
01:19:11.640 the best
01:19:12.220 salesperson
01:19:13.900 I've ever
01:19:15.620 seen and
01:19:16.640 he's selling
01:19:17.080 the country.
01:19:17.720 He's doing
01:19:17.920 a good job.
01:19:19.840 But meanwhile
01:19:20.680 in the
01:19:21.600 palisades
01:19:22.300 where there
01:19:22.820 was that
01:19:23.120 big fire,
01:19:25.320 apparently
01:19:26.480 nothing's
01:19:27.480 happening to
01:19:28.060 rebuild
01:19:28.420 basically.
01:19:30.380 Rebuilding
01:19:30.940 after the
01:19:31.980 fire is
01:19:32.600 almost nothing
01:19:33.720 and they're
01:19:34.940 thinking it
01:19:35.280 would take
01:19:35.560 four years
01:19:36.400 to get
01:19:36.820 things approved
01:19:37.600 and rebuilt.
01:19:38.460 Four years.
01:19:39.140 and all
01:19:40.640 of it
01:19:40.880 because
01:19:41.260 California
01:19:41.960 is a
01:19:42.500 bureaucratic
01:19:43.360 red tape
01:19:44.280 woke
01:19:45.340 mess.
01:19:50.720 Apparently
01:19:51.400 there's
01:19:52.060 some real
01:19:52.640 movement
01:19:53.260 on this
01:19:54.060 Russia
01:19:54.460 collusion
01:19:55.040 hoax
01:19:55.480 investigation
01:19:56.320 that the
01:19:57.040 FBI
01:19:58.060 and I
01:19:58.660 assume
01:19:58.900 the DOJ
01:19:59.580 are doing.
01:20:01.520 So I
01:20:02.200 was reading
01:20:02.580 in real
01:20:03.120 clear
01:20:03.500 investigations
01:20:04.460 Paul Sperry
01:20:06.360 was writing
01:20:06.900 that there's
01:20:08.400 been meetings
01:20:08.980 and there's
01:20:09.560 new information
01:20:10.260 on Russiagate.
01:20:12.300 New documents
01:20:13.440 have been
01:20:13.780 released.
01:20:14.460 There's a new
01:20:14.860 secret 200
01:20:15.960 page
01:20:16.460 congressional
01:20:17.580 audit.
01:20:19.700 I feel
01:20:20.920 like this
01:20:22.260 is looking
01:20:22.740 like something
01:20:23.340 might happen
01:20:24.100 as in
01:20:25.700 the idea
01:20:26.500 that the
01:20:26.980 Democrats
01:20:27.480 organized
01:20:28.360 a RICO
01:20:30.100 criminal
01:20:31.000 attempt to
01:20:32.660 lawfare
01:20:33.360 and disgrace
01:20:34.800 Trump
01:20:35.240 and get
01:20:35.580 him out
01:20:35.800 of the
01:20:36.160 government
01:20:37.960 and get
01:20:38.560 him out
01:20:38.780 of the
01:20:38.960 election.
01:20:40.200 It looks
01:20:40.920 like it's
01:20:41.460 all documented.
01:20:43.840 So unlike
01:20:45.140 the Epstein
01:20:45.780 thing where
01:20:46.780 there's
01:20:47.000 nothing to
01:20:47.980 look at,
01:20:49.500 we just
01:20:50.380 have a lot
01:20:50.780 of assumptions
01:20:51.640 and speculation,
01:20:53.040 it looks
01:20:53.540 like this
01:20:53.900 whole Russia
01:20:54.480 hoax
01:20:55.000 thing,
01:20:56.400 there's
01:20:56.820 going to
01:20:57.020 be memos
01:20:57.800 and hand
01:20:58.240 written
01:20:58.460 memos
01:20:59.020 and a
01:21:00.120 whole chain
01:21:00.700 of command
01:21:01.960 where you
01:21:02.760 can see
01:21:03.220 the entire
01:21:03.920 criminal
01:21:06.460 enterprise.
01:21:08.380 So I
01:21:10.300 don't know
01:21:10.620 how far
01:21:11.080 this could
01:21:11.580 go,
01:21:12.280 but is
01:21:12.760 there a
01:21:13.020 possibility
01:21:13.520 that Brennan
01:21:14.340 would be
01:21:14.740 put in
01:21:15.140 jail?
01:21:17.420 There is.
01:21:19.660 Yeah,
01:21:20.780 there is.
01:21:21.740 It would
01:21:22.100 be tough.
01:21:23.620 I think
01:21:24.340 the odds
01:21:24.760 are way
01:21:25.200 against it,
01:21:26.660 but it's
01:21:27.140 possible.
01:21:28.220 So if I
01:21:28.800 were John
01:21:29.200 Brennan,
01:21:29.620 I'd be
01:21:29.920 worried a
01:21:30.440 lot.
01:21:31.960 you know
01:21:34.880 we get
01:21:35.180 new
01:21:35.380 inflation
01:21:35.860 numbers
01:21:36.240 in the
01:21:36.540 country
01:21:36.820 on a
01:21:37.100 regular
01:21:37.300 basis,
01:21:37.900 just got
01:21:38.340 some
01:21:38.600 that
01:21:38.780 look
01:21:38.960 kind
01:21:39.180 of
01:21:39.260 good.
01:21:40.120 But would
01:21:40.580 you be
01:21:40.980 surprised
01:21:41.440 to learn
01:21:41.980 that economists
01:21:44.280 say that our
01:21:45.400 inflation data
01:21:46.360 is all
01:21:46.780 bullshit?
01:21:48.740 Does that
01:21:49.420 surprise anybody?
01:21:51.280 That the data
01:21:52.000 that they used
01:21:52.820 to figure out
01:21:53.600 if our prices
01:21:54.340 went up?
01:21:55.340 So part
01:21:55.900 of it is
01:21:56.420 a labor
01:21:58.220 shortage.
01:22:00.840 So the
01:22:01.080 way they
01:22:01.400 check prices
01:22:02.100 is have a
01:22:02.860 little army
01:22:03.580 of people
01:22:04.140 call certain
01:22:05.760 places and
01:22:06.400 say,
01:22:06.660 what are you
01:22:06.940 charging for
01:22:07.620 this or
01:22:08.080 that?
01:22:08.800 And then
01:22:09.140 they compile
01:22:09.700 it.
01:22:10.300 When they
01:22:10.820 don't have
01:22:11.300 the information,
01:22:12.580 they estimate
01:22:13.780 it.
01:22:15.120 They estimate
01:22:16.200 it.
01:22:17.180 How exactly
01:22:18.180 would you
01:22:18.680 estimate the
01:22:19.600 price of a
01:22:20.200 thing without
01:22:21.540 checking any
01:22:22.540 base source?
01:22:24.100 you just
01:22:26.020 make it
01:22:26.440 up,
01:22:26.700 right?
01:22:28.480 So it
01:22:29.340 sounds to
01:22:29.860 me like
01:22:30.300 some of
01:22:30.660 the inflation
01:22:31.280 numbers are
01:22:32.560 literally just
01:22:33.200 pulled out of
01:22:33.760 somebody's ass.
01:22:35.260 So I
01:22:37.260 think the
01:22:37.640 administration
01:22:38.160 in charge
01:22:39.100 probably can
01:22:39.900 make that
01:22:40.440 inflation number
01:22:41.280 just about
01:22:41.780 anything they
01:22:42.400 want because
01:22:44.720 it's sort of
01:22:45.680 made up and
01:22:46.180 based on
01:22:46.560 assumptions and
01:22:47.320 stuff.
01:22:48.380 And of
01:22:48.860 course,
01:22:49.540 what I say
01:22:50.320 when we find
01:22:51.540 out that the
01:22:52.240 inflation numbers
01:22:53.100 are probably
01:22:53.720 BS, I
01:22:55.140 say wait
01:22:56.620 until you
01:22:57.000 find out
01:22:57.420 about the
01:22:57.840 climate
01:22:58.220 models.
01:23:00.280 Wait until
01:23:01.080 you find out
01:23:01.640 how many
01:23:02.080 estimates are
01:23:04.320 in the
01:23:04.620 climate
01:23:04.920 models.
01:23:06.780 If you're
01:23:07.580 worried about
01:23:08.060 the inflation
01:23:08.700 numbers not
01:23:09.400 being perfectly
01:23:10.140 accurate,
01:23:11.680 oh,
01:23:12.940 wait till
01:23:13.400 you find out
01:23:13.900 about temperature.
01:23:16.480 Yeah,
01:23:17.120 there are some
01:23:17.600 estimates there.
01:23:20.600 Zoran
01:23:21.200 Mamdani
01:23:21.920 had a
01:23:23.340 meeting with
01:23:23.980 a bunch
01:23:24.320 of
01:23:24.720 important
01:23:26.780 business
01:23:28.200 CEOs,
01:23:29.740 and they
01:23:31.080 were asking
01:23:31.540 him about
01:23:32.240 his use of
01:23:33.940 the phrase
01:23:34.480 globalize the
01:23:35.740 intifada,
01:23:37.100 which is
01:23:38.060 taken commonly
01:23:39.040 as a call
01:23:39.780 to violence
01:23:40.460 toward Israel
01:23:41.900 and Jewish
01:23:43.100 people.
01:23:44.620 And Mamdani
01:23:45.420 claimed that
01:23:46.240 for him,
01:23:47.440 the slogan
01:23:48.020 is not about
01:23:49.860 that violence,
01:23:50.920 but it
01:23:51.520 reflects a
01:23:52.260 protest against
01:23:53.240 what he
01:23:53.540 called the
01:23:53.940 Israeli
01:23:54.360 occupation of
01:23:55.320 Gaza and
01:23:56.440 not an
01:23:56.960 endorsement of
01:23:57.720 violence.
01:23:58.480 So he says
01:23:59.400 he'll still be
01:24:00.100 in favor of
01:24:00.700 the idea
01:24:01.340 of that he's
01:24:04.520 opposed to
01:24:05.140 the occupation
01:24:06.320 of Gaza,
01:24:07.120 as he would
01:24:07.700 call it,
01:24:08.600 but he does
01:24:09.340 not endorse
01:24:10.040 anything about
01:24:11.020 it that is
01:24:12.460 violence.
01:24:13.640 Now remember
01:24:14.160 what I said
01:24:14.920 about whoever
01:24:17.480 gets to decide
01:24:18.620 what the
01:24:19.100 definition of
01:24:20.000 something is,
01:24:20.720 is in charge.
01:24:22.640 So here is
01:24:23.620 Zoran trying
01:24:25.500 to make us
01:24:26.200 accept his
01:24:27.060 definition of
01:24:28.640 what globalize
01:24:31.020 the intifada
01:24:31.860 means.
01:24:33.080 If he can get
01:24:34.360 us to accept
01:24:35.200 that definition,
01:24:36.600 then he
01:24:37.680 probably has a
01:24:38.480 good chance
01:24:39.420 of getting
01:24:39.700 elected,
01:24:40.540 and it looks
01:24:41.280 like he's
01:24:41.740 winning.
01:24:43.180 But do you
01:24:45.460 buy that?
01:24:46.280 How many
01:24:47.780 of you think
01:24:48.400 that that
01:24:50.840 phrase is
01:24:51.740 sort of
01:24:52.320 innocent and
01:24:53.140 it's only
01:24:53.500 talking about
01:24:54.280 the occupation?
01:24:57.360 It's not
01:24:58.000 really believable.
01:24:59.700 So I don't
01:25:00.720 think that he
01:25:01.400 has the power
01:25:02.040 to redefine
01:25:03.060 that.
01:25:04.480 So it means
01:25:05.280 that at the
01:25:05.720 moment he's
01:25:06.280 not in charge
01:25:06.900 of you,
01:25:07.520 because you
01:25:09.060 still have
01:25:09.480 your own
01:25:09.900 definition,
01:25:10.720 and you
01:25:11.080 would be
01:25:11.500 willing to
01:25:11.940 use it in
01:25:12.440 public if
01:25:12.940 he had to,
01:25:13.800 but he's
01:25:14.600 trying to
01:25:15.180 redefine it,
01:25:16.280 to get
01:25:16.960 power over
01:25:17.680 you.
01:25:19.000 And so
01:25:19.560 far,
01:25:19.980 not successful.
01:25:23.360 And then
01:25:25.280 he was
01:25:26.220 asked about
01:25:26.920 whether he
01:25:27.320 still supports
01:25:28.040 defunding the
01:25:29.280 police,
01:25:30.040 which is
01:25:30.500 something he
01:25:30.960 had said
01:25:31.240 in the past,
01:25:32.320 and he
01:25:33.100 decided to
01:25:33.740 avoid the
01:25:34.240 question.
01:25:36.020 Avoid the
01:25:36.760 question.
01:25:37.980 How in the
01:25:38.680 world would
01:25:39.660 all these
01:25:40.160 top CEOs
01:25:41.080 like Jamie
01:25:41.920 Diamond and
01:25:42.720 a bunch of
01:25:43.840 people like
01:25:44.200 that?
01:25:44.500 How in
01:25:44.780 the world
01:25:45.200 are they
01:25:45.600 going to
01:25:45.880 back this
01:25:46.680 guy?
01:25:47.520 Well, we
01:25:47.880 don't know
01:25:48.380 if they
01:25:49.020 will or
01:25:49.660 not, but
01:25:51.480 apparently a
01:25:53.560 bunch of
01:25:53.880 out-of-state
01:25:54.480 people are
01:25:55.180 donating to
01:25:56.240 Mom Donnie's
01:25:57.320 campaign.
01:25:58.020 He's got
01:25:58.220 350,000 since
01:26:00.220 his primary
01:26:00.800 win from
01:26:01.320 out-of-state.
01:26:03.020 Now he gets
01:26:03.840 also in-state,
01:26:04.860 but that's a
01:26:05.460 lot.
01:26:06.480 And I'm
01:26:06.800 wondering if
01:26:07.340 Republicans are
01:26:08.260 donating to
01:26:08.940 him.
01:26:09.840 Are there
01:26:10.440 any
01:26:10.700 Republicans
01:26:11.280 who are
01:26:11.820 so
01:26:12.200 Machiavellian
01:26:13.200 that they
01:26:14.200 say to
01:26:14.540 themselves,
01:26:15.120 you know,
01:26:15.840 if we let
01:26:16.960 the
01:26:17.180 communists
01:26:17.780 completely
01:26:18.660 destroy New
01:26:19.640 York City,
01:26:20.980 the Democrat
01:26:22.780 Party will
01:26:23.380 be dead
01:26:23.780 for a
01:26:24.860 generation?
01:26:26.960 Is there
01:26:27.680 any
01:26:28.060 Republican
01:26:28.580 with enough
01:26:29.260 money that
01:26:31.380 they actually
01:26:31.880 think that?
01:26:32.600 It's like,
01:26:32.900 well, you
01:26:34.360 know, I
01:26:34.580 don't want
01:26:35.000 to destroy
01:26:35.540 New York
01:26:35.960 City, but
01:26:36.480 they apparently
01:26:37.020 want to
01:26:37.480 destroy
01:26:37.780 themselves,
01:26:38.700 so we'll
01:26:40.320 just give
01:26:40.740 them the
01:26:41.020 tools to
01:26:41.500 do it,
01:26:42.340 and then
01:26:42.880 nobody will
01:26:43.480 vote for
01:26:43.960 a Democrat
01:26:44.760 ever again.
01:26:46.320 Maybe, I
01:26:47.440 don't know.
01:26:48.840 Well, Adam
01:26:49.540 Schiff, who
01:26:51.380 used to say
01:26:51.960 no one is
01:26:52.460 above the
01:26:52.900 law, now
01:26:54.340 says that
01:26:54.920 Trump's
01:26:55.280 attacks on
01:26:55.980 Schiff are
01:26:56.680 more dangerous
01:26:59.140 than ever
01:26:59.580 because it
01:27:00.140 involves the
01:27:00.640 law.
01:27:03.060 So Adam
01:27:04.080 Schiff, who
01:27:04.740 apparently broke
01:27:05.560 the law when
01:27:07.320 it came to
01:27:08.080 saying what
01:27:08.960 was his
01:27:09.920 primary
01:27:10.360 residence,
01:27:11.040 because he
01:27:11.300 had two
01:27:11.580 primary
01:27:12.020 residents,
01:27:12.680 which is
01:27:13.060 not a
01:27:13.620 thing.
01:27:14.940 It's
01:27:15.240 illegal.
01:27:17.140 But he's
01:27:18.180 saying the
01:27:18.520 real problem
01:27:18.980 is Trump's
01:27:19.680 abuse of
01:27:21.100 law, not
01:27:23.040 the fact that
01:27:23.600 he broke
01:27:24.020 it in the
01:27:24.440 most obvious
01:27:24.940 way.
01:27:27.540 Allegedly.
01:27:30.560 According to
01:27:31.300 the Wall
01:27:31.640 Street Journal,
01:27:32.600 vigilante groups
01:27:33.740 are taking
01:27:34.860 control of
01:27:35.540 Russia's
01:27:36.040 streets because
01:27:37.500 so many of
01:27:38.240 their police
01:27:38.840 officers have
01:27:40.100 been shipped
01:27:40.640 to the
01:27:41.620 war.
01:27:43.020 Now, the
01:27:43.460 way the
01:27:43.780 story reads,
01:27:45.740 the reason so
01:27:46.560 many police
01:27:47.300 officers in
01:27:48.080 Russia have
01:27:48.920 been sent to
01:27:49.540 the war is
01:27:51.560 because it
01:27:52.120 pays better to
01:27:53.440 be a soldier
01:27:54.060 than it does to
01:27:55.420 be a police
01:27:55.960 officer.
01:27:57.080 To which I
01:27:57.940 say, how
01:27:59.480 much more does
01:28:00.240 it pay that
01:28:01.700 you would go
01:28:02.300 into a meat
01:28:02.900 grinder where
01:28:03.580 you can't walk
01:28:04.200 outside without
01:28:04.960 a drone
01:28:05.460 killing you?
01:28:07.160 What police
01:28:08.580 officer would
01:28:10.440 give up their
01:28:11.000 police job to
01:28:12.600 voluntarily go to
01:28:13.780 the front lines
01:28:14.540 of the Ukraine-Russia
01:28:15.600 war that's just
01:28:17.940 grinding up all
01:28:18.820 the humans?
01:28:21.180 I don't know
01:28:21.920 about this story.
01:28:23.040 I believe the
01:28:23.800 vigilante groups,
01:28:25.100 and I believe that
01:28:25.860 there may be not
01:28:26.620 enough cops, but I
01:28:28.540 don't believe that
01:28:29.300 the cops were
01:28:30.960 mostly leaving for
01:28:32.220 the high pay of
01:28:33.820 being killed on
01:28:34.580 the front lines.
01:28:35.800 That doesn't
01:28:36.440 seem likely, does
01:28:38.700 it?
01:28:40.240 All right, people,
01:28:41.180 that's all I got
01:28:41.720 for now.
01:28:42.180 Sorry I went
01:28:42.800 long.
01:28:43.640 I'm going to say
01:28:44.120 a few words
01:28:44.660 privately to the
01:28:46.180 local subscribers
01:28:47.360 who I call
01:28:48.760 Beloved.
01:28:50.980 And the rest of
01:28:52.220 you, thanks for
01:28:52.900 joining, and I
01:28:53.820 will see you again
