Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2905 CWSA 07⧸22⧸25

00:00:01.000 Stock market is a little bit down, but we're a little bit up, so that will totally compensate.

00:00:13.200 We seem to have nobody from the other platforms.

00:00:19.360 Oh, there we go.

00:00:21.860 Come on, Rumble.

00:00:23.560 Nobody from Rumble today?

00:00:26.460 There we go.

00:00:30.000 We're all here.

00:00:41.880 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:49.980 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and it's the best thing that ever happened to you.

00:00:54.160 But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that no one could even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains,

00:01:03.020 all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:01:13.040 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:14.900 I like coffee.

00:01:16.580 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:01:23.200 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:01:26.720 Go.

00:01:27.000 Oh, if you have not experienced the benefit of the simultaneous sip, well, you're missing out.

00:01:44.520 I wonder if there's any science that could have been skipped if they just asked me.

00:01:54.080 Well, here's some.

00:01:55.820 Eric Dolan is writing in the Psy Post that psychologists have found out that if you're a politician running for office,

00:02:04.800 you're more likely to get elected if you're an optimist who has specific ideas for solving problems.

00:02:13.380 That's right.

00:02:16.840 If you're an optimist who has specific solutions to problems and you're running against a pessimist or someone who has no solutions for problems,

00:02:29.140 you're more likely to win.

00:02:32.180 Well, I think they could have asked me or any of you, what do you think is better?

00:02:38.440 You're saying that you have solutions to problems or acting like all the problems are permanent.

00:02:46.180 Yep.

00:02:47.340 Somebody took some time to find out if there was a difference there.

00:02:52.380 There is.

00:02:53.220 Turns out there is.

00:02:55.680 Well, if you're following the saga of the Tesla restaurant to supercharger stations,

00:03:03.640 it's probably more interesting than you think.

00:03:06.480 So, on the surface, it's a story about Elon Musk and Tesla building these cool 50s-looking diners.

00:03:16.880 They're kind of ultra-modern.

00:03:19.260 They've got some movie screens outside.

00:03:21.760 You can buy some comfort food.

00:03:24.620 And it just looks like, oh, that's kind of a nice thing.

00:03:28.640 But the part that makes me curious is that Elon Musk doesn't get involved in things to keep things the way they've always been.

00:03:41.800 So, when he invents a restaurant that, you know, although it's specific to be paired with his supercharger stuff,

00:03:53.360 don't you think he's going to fix restaurants?

00:03:56.960 Because how can you avoid it?

00:04:00.180 If you're going to have a restaurant, you're not going to want it to be inefficient or any of that.

00:04:06.960 So, probably, just the fact that Elon Musk is in the restaurant business now, indirectly,

00:04:14.100 probably we're going to see some big improvements.

00:04:17.400 I guess he already sources the ingredients from local farms.

00:04:22.820 So, that's a good start.

00:04:25.080 But have you seen Travis Kalanick, who used to be the CEO of Uber,

00:04:32.200 but now he's running a startup called Cloud Kitchen.

00:04:36.940 And it's literally robots that make your food.

00:04:40.620 So, instead of having a staff of people in the back room,

00:04:44.200 you could just fill it with ingredients, the robots.

00:04:47.800 And it's like a big industrial, it's more like an assembly line,

00:04:52.200 an automated assembly line for food.

00:04:56.040 And there are different robots for different kinds of foods, etc.

00:04:59.260 But, Travis is trying to reinvent the entire food distribution concept.

00:05:10.440 He's looking to make a major change in how we get food and pay for it and all that.

00:05:16.340 Now, at the same time,

00:05:19.740 Kimball Musk, the brother of Elon, had been involved in indoor farms.

00:05:25.760 I don't think that worked out.

00:05:27.360 I'm not sure if he's still in that business or not,

00:05:30.280 but I think there were some issues.

00:05:32.640 But, you put it all together,

00:05:34.840 and I would not be surprised to see some robots making food

00:05:39.800 for people at the future Tesla restaurants.

00:05:46.440 It might be, maybe it'll be humanoid robots,

00:05:49.680 which is different than what Travis Kalanick is doing.

00:05:52.920 His is more like an assembly line robot situation.

00:05:57.360 But, big changes might be coming in how you get your food.

00:06:04.820 Well, according to Scientific American,

00:06:08.960 the first hormone-free male birth control

00:06:12.340 may be getting closer to approval.

00:06:15.980 They still have to go through some human testing,

00:06:18.820 but it got through an early human trial to show safety.

00:06:25.680 So, what would that do to our reproduction

00:06:28.580 if men could take birth control

00:06:32.240 and it didn't hurt them?

00:06:35.080 Now, I'm skeptical that this will ever work

00:06:38.400 because if you turn off a man's sexual function,

00:06:42.780 it's hard for me to imagine that everything else stays the same.

00:06:46.460 You know, I know it's hormone-free,

00:06:50.680 but, I don't know.

00:06:52.680 It just seems like something that would have side effects.

00:06:55.820 But, we'll see.

00:06:57.580 We'll see.

00:06:58.740 And that should doom the rest of the planet

00:07:01.620 to no more babies.

00:07:03.520 Because if you allow men to have control

00:07:06.420 over whether they can enjoy the sex

00:07:09.660 and not have a risk of a baby,

00:07:12.600 there's going to be a lot of accidental births

00:07:15.580 that don't happen.

00:07:17.620 And, right now,

00:07:19.300 since we have a reproduction crisis,

00:07:22.300 we're not making enough babies,

00:07:25.080 imagine if you didn't have any accidental babies

00:07:27.740 because the men just took a pill.

00:07:29.720 and they're like,

00:07:30.860 I don't have to wear a condom.

00:07:33.040 I'll enjoy this sex

00:07:34.440 and I don't have to worry about a baby.

00:07:37.520 A lot of accidental babies

00:07:41.420 are going to stop being born.

00:07:44.140 So, there's that.

00:07:46.800 Chamath Pellahabatea

00:07:49.060 is pointing out on X

00:07:51.320 that mostly the value of cable news assets

00:07:55.380 is sports.

00:07:56.720 If you took away sports events

00:08:00.680 from cable TV,

00:08:03.320 they would have no audience whatsoever.

00:08:06.280 It turns out that

00:08:07.780 their viewership of cable TV

00:08:10.100 is really heavily driven by sports.

00:08:13.580 I didn't know that.

00:08:15.220 But,

00:08:16.760 as Chamath points out,

00:08:19.860 as YouTube and

00:08:21.460 other online things

00:08:24.220 start competing for

00:08:25.660 sports content,

00:08:27.980 there's a good chance

00:08:29.620 that what you think of

00:08:30.960 as cable TV

00:08:32.160 will just go away.

00:08:34.600 We might be a few years away

00:08:36.440 from everything

00:08:37.220 looking like

00:08:38.040 Stephen Colbert,

00:08:40.080 meaning that

00:08:40.920 it just doesn't work

00:08:42.320 in the modern era.

00:08:44.680 So, that might happen.

00:08:47.960 Well, Hunter Biden

00:08:49.040 did an interview

00:08:49.940 that was laced

00:08:52.020 with the F word,

00:08:53.200 did a lot of swearing.

00:08:54.020 but he

00:08:55.440 made a little news

00:08:56.880 because he said

00:08:57.920 that the problem

00:08:58.600 with his dad

00:08:59.540 at that debate

00:09:01.220 that kicked

00:09:02.380 Joe Biden

00:09:03.160 out of the

00:09:03.800 contest

00:09:05.620 completely.

00:09:07.760 Hunter believes

00:09:08.820 it was because

00:09:09.560 the dad was flying

00:09:10.780 around to Europe

00:09:11.920 and they'd been giving him

00:09:13.840 Ambien

00:09:14.300 for his sleep

00:09:15.700 and he had

00:09:17.200 basically

00:09:17.800 Ambien brain

00:09:19.080 and that

00:09:20.480 was his problem

00:09:21.940 at the debate.

00:09:24.400 Now,

00:09:24.960 that's not impossible.

00:09:27.380 It's not impossible

00:09:28.360 that he had

00:09:28.960 a little Ambien

00:09:29.760 problem

00:09:30.220 on top of

00:09:30.940 whatever

00:09:31.340 his natural

00:09:33.080 problem was.

00:09:34.800 But I don't think

00:09:36.080 it explains

00:09:36.860 everything.

00:09:38.440 I feel like

00:09:39.480 unless

00:09:40.380 Joe was on

00:09:42.720 Ambien

00:09:43.200 every day

00:09:43.760 in office,

00:09:44.920 I don't think

00:09:45.660 that's the whole story.

00:09:48.080 Anyway.

00:09:48.360 Claudia was leaving

00:09:50.460 for her pickleball

00:09:51.240 tournament.

00:09:51.800 I've been visualizing

00:09:52.620 my match

00:09:53.160 all week.

00:09:54.300 She was so focused

00:09:55.200 on visualizing

00:09:55.980 that she didn't see

00:09:56.880 the column behind

00:09:57.540 her car

00:09:58.020 on her backhand side.

00:10:00.300 Good thing

00:10:00.980 Claudia's with

00:10:01.620 Intact,

00:10:02.240 the insurer

00:10:02.800 with the largest

00:10:03.520 network of auto

00:10:04.300 service centers

00:10:04.900 in the country.

00:10:06.000 Everything was

00:10:06.540 taken care of

00:10:07.180 under one roof

00:10:07.940 and she was

00:10:08.460 on her way

00:10:08.860 in a rental car

00:10:09.580 in no time.

00:10:10.460 I made it

00:10:11.080 to my tournament

00:10:11.800 and lost

00:10:12.900 in the first round.

00:10:13.920 But you got

00:10:14.760 there on time.

00:10:15.780 Intact Insurance,

00:10:16.920 your auto service ace.

00:10:18.360 Certain conditions

00:10:18.940 apply.

00:10:23.120 Wait,

00:10:24.100 stop that.

00:10:28.320 There we go.

00:10:32.360 There's a,

00:10:33.480 there's now

00:10:36.280 a legal attack

00:10:38.000 on the restaurant

00:10:39.820 called the

00:10:40.400 Cracker Barrel.

00:10:41.920 Apparently,

00:10:42.760 the Cracker Barrel

00:10:43.820 was still doing

00:10:45.160 DEI

00:10:45.820 in violation

00:10:47.000 of federal

00:10:47.600 and federal

00:10:49.360 law mostly.

00:10:50.800 But the

00:10:51.680 America First

00:10:54.400 legal

00:10:54.880 has noticed

00:10:56.820 and they're

00:10:57.740 going after them.

00:10:59.240 So,

00:10:59.800 what are the odds

00:11:00.840 that a restaurant

00:11:02.620 chain

00:11:03.240 that's being

00:11:04.600 accused

00:11:05.460 of too much

00:11:06.720 DEI

00:11:07.580 is named

00:11:08.940 Cracker Barrel?

00:11:10.140 I feel

00:11:13.120 like they

00:11:13.420 have to

00:11:13.680 change

00:11:14.020 the name.

00:11:17.300 What are

00:11:17.940 the odds

00:11:18.400 that it

00:11:18.600 would be

00:11:18.840 named

00:11:19.100 Cracker

00:11:19.640 and they're

00:11:21.480 going too

00:11:23.000 hard

00:11:23.260 at DEI?

00:11:24.780 Oh,

00:11:25.060 well.

00:11:25.580 We live

00:11:26.140 in a

00:11:26.400 simulation.

00:11:28.820 Well,

00:11:29.400 let's talk

00:11:30.020 about all

00:11:30.660 the things

00:11:31.160 that President

00:11:31.860 Trump is

00:11:32.460 doing

00:11:32.780 to force

00:11:35.040 the government

00:11:35.680 or somebody

00:11:36.440 else to

00:11:37.240 just stop

00:11:37.820 doing what

00:11:38.340 they're

00:11:38.500 doing.

00:11:39.380 It turns

00:11:40.180 out that

00:11:40.700 one of the

00:11:41.060 things that

00:11:41.520 Trump is

00:11:41.960 best at

00:11:42.560 is stopping

00:11:43.920 other people

00:11:44.640 from doing

00:11:45.160 things they

00:11:45.660 shouldn't have

00:11:46.040 been doing,

00:11:47.160 such as

00:11:47.980 crossing the

00:11:49.040 border.

00:11:50.440 Stop it.

00:11:51.460 Okay,

00:11:52.100 stop it.

00:11:53.260 Such as

00:11:54.240 the DEI

00:11:55.540 programs.

00:11:56.880 Stop it.

00:11:58.180 Just stop it.

00:11:59.260 Don't do that

00:12:00.000 anymore.

00:12:00.340 It's illegal.

00:12:00.800 But he

00:12:02.920 keeps racking

00:12:04.000 up the

00:12:04.420 winds with

00:12:05.580 making people

00:12:06.280 stop doing

00:12:06.960 things.

00:12:08.460 So now

00:12:08.960 the U.S.

00:12:09.800 is going to

00:12:10.220 pull out

00:12:10.600 of the

00:12:11.060 UNESCO.

00:12:13.780 What is

00:12:14.620 UNESCO?

00:12:15.740 Well,

00:12:16.520 it's a

00:12:18.520 UN-backed

00:12:19.520 entity

00:12:20.240 that's

00:12:22.040 supposed to

00:12:22.580 do things.

00:12:24.480 What does

00:12:25.120 it do?

00:12:25.580 But

00:12:29.040 apparently

00:12:31.200 it's not

00:12:31.660 doing much

00:12:32.380 good.

00:12:33.360 But UNESCO

00:12:34.020 has got a

00:12:34.700 little bit

00:12:35.000 too much

00:12:35.500 DEI and

00:12:37.440 it's pro-Palestinian

00:12:38.940 and pro-China

00:12:40.900 bias,

00:12:42.100 the White

00:12:42.420 House told

00:12:43.000 the Post.

00:12:45.100 I'm not

00:12:45.900 sure that

00:12:46.540 saying that

00:12:47.080 something is

00:12:47.640 pro-Palestinian

00:12:48.840 is how you

00:12:50.380 should say

00:12:50.900 that you're

00:12:51.260 pulling out

00:12:51.760 of something.

00:12:53.240 Shouldn't

00:12:53.720 you say

00:12:54.440 they're

00:12:55.000 pro-Palestinian?

00:12:58.580 That shouldn't

00:12:59.300 be bad,

00:12:59.980 right?

00:13:01.580 If you

00:13:02.920 were describing

00:13:03.760 this,

00:13:04.660 would you

00:13:05.080 say,

00:13:05.500 well,

00:13:06.480 now we

00:13:07.380 got to

00:13:07.640 drop

00:13:07.920 support for

00:13:08.580 them because

00:13:09.080 they're

00:13:09.280 pro-Palestinian?

00:13:10.800 It's not

00:13:11.640 the Palestinian

00:13:12.560 part that's

00:13:13.280 the problem,

00:13:13.860 is it?

00:13:14.800 Isn't it

00:13:15.320 the terrorists

00:13:16.120 and Hamas?

00:13:17.920 It's not

00:13:18.680 just being

00:13:19.360 Palestinian.

00:13:21.100 All right.

00:13:23.900 So,

00:13:24.500 we'll

00:13:25.800 probably

00:13:26.120 save some

00:13:26.740 money or

00:13:27.320 save some

00:13:28.080 trouble by

00:13:28.700 pulling out

00:13:29.240 of that.

00:13:31.060 And then,

00:13:33.000 the Trump

00:13:35.340 administration,

00:13:36.340 according to

00:13:36.960 the Daily

00:13:37.940 Color News

00:13:38.760 Foundation,

00:13:40.360 the Trump

00:13:41.140 administration

00:13:41.640 is on the

00:13:43.040 precipice of

00:13:44.600 entering something

00:13:45.520 called the

00:13:46.080 endangerment

00:13:46.880 finding,

00:13:48.280 a rule that

00:13:49.200 Democrats use

00:13:50.060 to push

00:13:50.640 climate change.

00:13:51.640 So,

00:13:53.380 I guess

00:13:54.060 the rule

00:13:54.420 was,

00:13:55.460 the rule

00:13:57.880 was that

00:13:58.740 if Democrats

00:14:00.180 could say

00:14:01.100 that something

00:14:01.640 was endangering

00:14:02.640 the planet

00:14:03.340 or the

00:14:04.020 people,

00:14:04.760 then they

00:14:05.560 could block

00:14:06.240 projects,

00:14:07.480 which had the

00:14:08.620 effect of

00:14:09.220 blocking a lot

00:14:09.880 of energy

00:14:10.440 projects and

00:14:12.060 other things

00:14:12.940 we wanted

00:14:13.400 to do,

00:14:14.260 but probably

00:14:15.820 didn't make

00:14:16.420 the world

00:14:16.800 that much

00:14:17.260 safer.

00:14:17.620 so Trump

00:14:20.580 is looking

00:14:21.140 at getting

00:14:22.040 out of it

00:14:22.560 and just

00:14:23.680 saying,

00:14:24.540 nope,

00:14:24.940 you can't

00:14:25.760 use that

00:14:26.340 endangerment

00:14:27.520 finding to

00:14:28.280 block us

00:14:28.820 from progress.

00:14:29.960 So that

00:14:30.340 would be

00:14:30.580 another thing

00:14:31.300 that Trump

00:14:32.480 is just

00:14:33.040 discontinuing

00:14:34.260 for our

00:14:35.580 benefit.

00:14:37.560 Are there

00:14:38.500 any more

00:14:39.160 things like

00:14:39.700 that?

00:14:40.040 Yes.

00:14:40.840 According to

00:14:41.800 Kerry Pickett,

00:14:42.940 writing for

00:14:43.620 the Washington

00:14:44.200 Times,

00:14:45.440 the Trump

00:14:45.980 administration

00:14:46.460 is also

00:14:47.240 looking to

00:14:47.840 remove up

00:14:48.440 to 2.8

00:14:49.260 million

00:14:49.660 duplicative

00:14:51.300 enrollees

00:14:52.400 on federal

00:14:53.440 health care

00:14:54.020 plans.

00:14:55.200 In other

00:14:55.580 words,

00:14:56.340 there are a

00:14:56.660 whole bunch

00:14:57.040 of people

00:14:57.400 who are on

00:14:58.060 more than

00:14:58.720 one plan

00:14:59.440 that the

00:15:00.340 government

00:15:00.700 pays for.

00:15:01.560 A state

00:15:02.040 plan and

00:15:02.820 a federal

00:15:03.400 plan, I

00:15:04.040 think,

00:15:04.280 is part of

00:15:04.680 it.

00:15:05.500 So they're

00:15:06.260 going to

00:15:06.520 get rid of

00:15:06.980 a whole

00:15:07.200 bunch of

00:15:07.640 duplication

00:15:08.480 that were

00:15:10.380 unnecessary

00:15:11.260 expenses,

00:15:12.180 apparently.

00:15:13.540 So there

00:15:14.200 again,

00:15:15.440 Trump is

00:15:16.180 getting rid

00:15:17.120 of

00:15:17.280 something

00:15:17.720 that

00:15:18.780 shouldn't

00:15:19.180 have been

00:15:19.400 there in

00:15:19.660 the first

00:15:19.920 place.

00:15:23.220 Over on

00:15:24.180 CNN,

00:15:26.200 Harry

00:15:26.540 Enten,

00:15:27.040 the data

00:15:27.540 analyst

00:15:28.040 expert guy,

00:15:29.840 he declared

00:15:31.260 that Elon

00:15:31.900 Musk's idea

00:15:32.660 of a third

00:15:33.620 party is

00:15:34.960 quote,

00:15:35.560 pretty much

00:15:36.260 dead on

00:15:36.860 arrival.

00:15:38.280 Now,

00:15:38.960 I'm going

00:15:39.720 to put you

00:15:40.400 to the

00:15:40.740 test.

00:15:41.100 and if

00:15:43.700 you're new

00:15:44.120 to my

00:15:44.440 podcast,

00:15:45.620 watch how

00:15:46.100 impressed

00:15:46.580 you will

00:15:47.020 be.

00:15:48.000 All right?

00:15:49.100 Answer the

00:15:49.860 question before

00:15:50.620 I ask it.

00:15:51.500 Go.

00:15:53.380 Watch the

00:15:54.120 comments.

00:15:55.700 Answer the

00:15:56.480 question before

00:15:57.900 you know what

00:15:58.620 the question

00:15:59.140 is.

00:16:00.660 And that is

00:16:01.580 the correct

00:16:02.040 answer.

00:16:02.640 Yes.

00:16:03.400 If you're

00:16:03.900 listening to it,

00:16:05.640 you don't see

00:16:06.080 the comments,

00:16:07.000 but the comments

00:16:07.840 are saying

00:16:08.320 25%.

00:16:09.460 Now,

00:16:10.860 I haven't

00:16:11.340 even asked

00:16:11.780 the question.

00:16:13.060 How in the

00:16:13.580 world did

00:16:14.000 they get

00:16:14.320 the right

00:16:14.620 answer?

00:16:15.940 Well,

00:16:16.760 here's the

00:16:17.400 question.

00:16:18.700 What percentage

00:16:19.680 of the people

00:16:20.340 polled

00:16:21.240 thought that

00:16:22.860 Elon Musk's

00:16:24.900 third party

00:16:25.580 was a good

00:16:26.260 idea?

00:16:28.740 25%.

00:16:29.380 How did

00:16:31.100 everybody know

00:16:32.040 it would be

00:16:32.420 25%

00:16:33.480 without even

00:16:34.660 knowing what

00:16:35.200 the question

00:16:35.760 was?

00:16:36.820 You didn't

00:16:37.300 even hear

00:16:37.600 the question.

00:16:38.780 Well,

00:16:39.360 it's because

00:16:40.160 25% of the

00:16:41.880 public will

00:16:43.000 get every

00:16:43.680 poll question

00:16:44.440 wrong,

00:16:45.000 no matter

00:16:45.640 how simple

00:16:46.220 it is.

00:16:48.760 Yeah.

00:16:49.740 A third

00:16:50.800 party would

00:16:52.060 just screw

00:16:52.900 up everything,

00:16:54.120 and most

00:16:55.240 people don't

00:16:55.760 want it.

00:16:56.780 So I

00:16:57.660 have a,

00:16:59.060 I'm skeptical

00:16:59.960 that Elon

00:17:00.800 will go ahead

00:17:01.640 with the third

00:17:02.700 party,

00:17:03.400 because he's

00:17:04.000 seeing what

00:17:04.460 we see,

00:17:05.440 you know,

00:17:05.720 that would

00:17:05.980 be hugely

00:17:06.780 unpopular.

00:17:08.320 And probably

00:17:09.400 would be

00:17:10.760 bad for

00:17:11.240 his stock

00:17:11.760 price and

00:17:12.400 everything else.

00:17:13.180 So I don't

00:17:14.180 think it's

00:17:14.620 going to

00:17:14.900 happen.

00:17:15.720 But even

00:17:16.500 Harry Enten

00:17:17.280 acknowledges

00:17:18.900 that although

00:17:21.380 it wouldn't

00:17:22.860 win races,

00:17:24.360 you know,

00:17:25.080 flat out,

00:17:25.840 it's unlikely

00:17:26.460 to do that

00:17:27.220 if somebody

00:17:27.800 ran under

00:17:29.660 that platform.

00:17:30.840 But it might

00:17:31.860 be a spoiler.

00:17:32.660 I'm not

00:17:34.900 sure that

00:17:36.380 Elon Musk

00:17:37.140 wants more

00:17:38.060 than a

00:17:38.560 spoiler.

00:17:40.020 It might

00:17:40.540 be that

00:17:41.820 all he

00:17:42.280 needs is

00:17:42.820 a spoiler,

00:17:44.220 and whoever

00:17:45.340 has a spoiler

00:17:46.200 has a lot

00:17:46.760 of power.

00:17:47.800 So maybe,

00:17:49.480 but it

00:17:50.940 doesn't look

00:17:51.340 like it'd be

00:17:51.780 very popular.

00:17:52.940 It probably

00:17:53.340 wouldn't be

00:17:53.860 good for

00:17:54.400 Tesla stock,

00:17:56.380 which I own

00:17:57.480 some,

00:17:58.660 so I'm not

00:17:59.480 objective there

00:18:00.440 at all.

00:18:14.200 Scotiabank,

00:18:14.900 you're richer

00:18:15.380 than you think.

00:18:16.960 So how

00:18:18.200 many of you

00:18:18.700 have ever

00:18:19.060 said to

00:18:19.440 yourself,

00:18:20.020 what does

00:18:20.920 the Federal

00:18:21.400 Reserve

00:18:21.880 really do?

00:18:25.680 Have you

00:18:26.280 ever asked

00:18:26.720 that question

00:18:27.340 and tried

00:18:28.240 to look

00:18:28.860 it up?

00:18:29.220 and it's

00:18:30.840 just all

00:18:31.300 so confusing.

00:18:32.920 Like,

00:18:33.260 what do

00:18:33.480 they do?

00:18:34.700 But apparently,

00:18:36.080 Scott Besant

00:18:37.260 was asking

00:18:38.740 the same

00:18:39.180 question I've

00:18:39.780 been asking,

00:18:41.000 and why

00:18:41.400 do they

00:18:41.620 need those

00:18:42.140 people?

00:18:44.460 So Besant

00:18:45.240 said,

00:18:45.880 quote,

00:18:46.680 what we need

00:18:48.260 to do is

00:18:48.740 examine the

00:18:49.740 entire Federal

00:18:50.440 Reserve

00:18:50.840 institution

00:18:51.680 and whether

00:18:52.700 they have

00:18:53.100 been successful.

00:18:54.360 All of

00:18:54.960 these PhDs

00:18:56.100 over there,

00:18:56.800 I don't know

00:18:57.320 what they

00:18:57.620 do.

00:18:58.880 This is

00:18:59.600 like universal

00:19:00.400 basic income

00:19:01.340 for academic

00:19:02.600 economists.

00:19:04.320 Now,

00:19:05.740 given that

00:19:07.260 Trump and

00:19:08.320 a lot of

00:19:08.720 us have

00:19:09.680 done no

00:19:10.220 economic

00:19:10.880 modeling

00:19:11.380 whatsoever,

00:19:12.680 and yet

00:19:13.260 have strong

00:19:14.880 opinions about

00:19:15.720 whether interest

00:19:16.540 rates should

00:19:17.060 be going

00:19:17.900 up or

00:19:18.220 down,

00:19:19.760 so could

00:19:21.440 you replace

00:19:22.160 the entire

00:19:22.740 Federal

00:19:23.160 Reserve

00:19:23.620 with Trump's

00:19:25.800 opinion,

00:19:26.720 I think

00:19:27.160 interest rates

00:19:27.960 should be

00:19:28.220 lower.

00:19:29.480 Well,

00:19:30.040 you would

00:19:30.340 lose your

00:19:31.020 independent

00:19:32.080 opinion,

00:19:33.200 and it would

00:19:33.440 be sort

00:19:34.500 of a bad

00:19:36.080 system to

00:19:36.960 have the

00:19:37.220 government

00:19:37.580 totally in

00:19:38.280 charge of

00:19:38.700 that.

00:19:41.460 But how

00:19:43.160 many people

00:19:43.920 do you think

00:19:44.620 work at the

00:19:45.300 Federal Reserve

00:19:46.180 if the only

00:19:47.880 thing you knew

00:19:48.580 about them

00:19:49.160 is that they

00:19:50.680 determine if

00:19:51.580 the interest

00:19:52.060 rates should

00:19:52.580 go up or

00:19:52.980 down.

00:19:53.800 How many

00:19:54.540 staff should

00:19:55.820 that take?

00:19:57.240 What's your

00:19:57.720 guess?

00:19:59.380 Guess how

00:19:59.940 many people

00:20:01.480 work at the

00:20:02.240 Federal Reserve?

00:20:03.020 The answer

00:20:03.400 is about

00:20:04.740 24,000

00:20:05.920 people.

00:20:08.440 24,000?

00:20:10.740 And I

00:20:11.700 asked Grok

00:20:12.420 what they

00:20:12.880 all do.

00:20:15.160 So,

00:20:15.680 besides

00:20:16.060 setting

00:20:16.520 interest rates,

00:20:18.020 which apparently

00:20:18.740 takes thousands

00:20:20.020 of people,

00:20:21.960 according to

00:20:22.960 Grok,

00:20:23.560 it estimated

00:20:24.260 that thousands

00:20:25.600 of people

00:20:26.240 were involved

00:20:27.300 in setting

00:20:27.860 interest rates.

00:20:29.320 Really?

00:20:30.420 Do you really

00:20:31.120 need thousands

00:20:32.020 of people

00:20:32.660 to guess

00:20:33.980 whether inflation

00:20:34.920 is going up

00:20:35.640 or down?

00:20:36.840 They don't even

00:20:37.920 know.

00:20:38.880 It would be

00:20:39.520 one thing if

00:20:40.440 those thousands

00:20:41.480 of people

00:20:42.060 made them

00:20:43.000 get the right

00:20:43.620 answer.

00:20:44.800 But there's no

00:20:45.780 indication they

00:20:46.560 get the right

00:20:47.060 answer.

00:20:48.000 It looks like

00:20:48.840 guessing,

00:20:49.340 doesn't it?

00:20:49.780 So,

00:20:51.740 they said

00:20:52.200 interest rates,

00:20:52.860 but they also

00:20:53.340 regulate banks.

00:20:55.760 That does feel

00:20:56.880 like that would

00:20:57.380 take a lot of

00:20:57.940 people to

00:20:58.800 regulate banks.

00:21:00.480 But how much

00:21:02.040 regulating are

00:21:02.900 they doing?

00:21:04.000 Are you telling

00:21:04.880 me that AI

00:21:05.720 couldn't do

00:21:06.520 that?

00:21:07.400 Because the

00:21:08.540 only regulations

00:21:09.460 that they

00:21:10.280 probably do

00:21:10.920 is they look

00:21:11.960 at, you

00:21:13.100 know,

00:21:13.180 things that

00:21:13.840 data is

00:21:15.960 surfacing.

00:21:16.940 and if

00:21:18.620 you can

00:21:19.080 tell by

00:21:19.500 looking at

00:21:20.000 the data

00:21:20.520 and you

00:21:21.880 didn't need

00:21:22.300 a lot of

00:21:22.700 instinct or

00:21:23.400 anything like

00:21:23.880 that,

00:21:24.780 I feel like

00:21:25.620 you don't

00:21:26.620 need thousands

00:21:27.360 of people to

00:21:28.080 do it.

00:21:28.960 Probably you

00:21:29.620 just need a

00:21:30.180 good AI

00:21:30.780 and half a

00:21:31.540 dozen people

00:21:32.040 to keep it

00:21:32.600 working.

00:21:34.400 They also

00:21:35.120 manage the

00:21:36.020 money supply.

00:21:37.740 How many

00:21:38.160 thousands of

00:21:38.920 people does

00:21:39.420 it take to

00:21:39.840 manage the

00:21:40.580 money supply?

00:21:41.860 What are

00:21:42.180 they like,

00:21:42.620 goat herders?

00:21:44.220 And they're

00:21:44.600 all like,

00:21:45.200 well,

00:21:45.620 stay in these

00:21:46.340 lines,

00:21:46.720 money.

00:21:48.420 Doesn't it

00:21:49.000 seem like

00:21:49.520 one or

00:21:50.740 two people

00:21:51.440 could manage

00:21:52.040 the entire

00:21:54.200 money supply?

00:21:55.760 Why do you

00:21:56.360 need so

00:21:56.740 many people?

00:21:59.420 They also

00:22:00.480 maintain

00:22:01.200 financial

00:22:01.840 stability.

00:22:03.760 Well,

00:22:04.640 that sort

00:22:05.360 of sounds

00:22:05.940 like it's

00:22:06.680 wrapped up

00:22:07.360 with the

00:22:07.760 other stuff.

00:22:09.780 So,

00:22:10.680 should that

00:22:11.140 be its own

00:22:11.660 category?

00:22:12.380 I don't

00:22:12.580 know.

00:22:13.420 And they

00:22:13.780 oversee

00:22:14.240 payment

00:22:14.780 systems,

00:22:15.400 which

00:22:16.800 should

00:22:17.240 probably

00:22:17.620 go away.

00:22:19.460 Don't

00:22:19.720 you think

00:22:20.200 we should

00:22:20.960 just use

00:22:21.440 Bitcoin or

00:22:22.380 stable coins

00:22:23.720 or some

00:22:24.140 crypto so

00:22:25.380 that you

00:22:25.640 can send

00:22:26.200 money whenever

00:22:26.820 you want

00:22:27.400 with no

00:22:27.840 fee?

00:22:28.080 the banks

00:22:30.360 are just

00:22:30.820 an obstacle

00:22:32.100 to send

00:22:32.600 money,

00:22:33.300 basically.

00:22:35.620 So,

00:22:36.460 I agree

00:22:36.940 with Scott

00:22:38.340 Bassent

00:22:39.080 that it

00:22:40.980 does look

00:22:41.400 like they

00:22:41.820 could trim

00:22:42.280 a little

00:22:42.600 bit.

00:22:43.280 A little

00:22:43.600 bit.

00:22:44.300 Like,

00:22:45.300 probably

00:22:45.820 80% of their

00:22:48.500 staff could be

00:22:49.200 let go.

00:22:50.540 That's my

00:22:51.120 guess,

00:22:51.780 80%.

00:22:52.540 we will

00:22:53.900 never say

00:22:54.400 that,

00:22:54.720 I'm

00:22:54.840 guessing.

00:22:56.120 According to

00:22:56.980 Rasmussen

00:22:57.780 polling,

00:22:59.520 Democrats

00:23:00.300 are expanding

00:23:01.300 their lead

00:23:02.020 for the

00:23:02.360 midterms,

00:23:03.280 2026.

00:23:05.120 So,

00:23:06.060 did you

00:23:06.680 know that?

00:23:07.700 So,

00:23:08.140 the Democrats

00:23:09.580 were already

00:23:10.220 up a little

00:23:10.740 bit over

00:23:12.260 Republicans in

00:23:13.480 terms of

00:23:14.160 voting for

00:23:15.040 the midterms,

00:23:16.060 but they've

00:23:17.280 increased that

00:23:18.520 gap.

00:23:18.860 So,

00:23:20.740 42% would

00:23:22.320 vote for

00:23:22.660 the Republican

00:23:23.180 and 46%

00:23:26.060 would vote

00:23:26.640 for the

00:23:27.020 Democrat.

00:23:28.120 Now,

00:23:28.420 these are

00:23:28.880 generic

00:23:29.980 candidates,

00:23:32.280 not specific

00:23:33.100 ones.

00:23:34.460 So,

00:23:34.860 there's been

00:23:35.280 a net

00:23:36.040 three-point

00:23:36.560 gain by

00:23:37.040 Democrats

00:23:37.540 since May,

00:23:38.500 according to

00:23:39.080 Rasmussen.

00:23:40.740 So,

00:23:41.940 how many

00:23:42.600 of you

00:23:42.980 think

00:23:43.540 the midterms

00:23:45.060 are going

00:23:45.440 to go

00:23:45.920 Trump's

00:23:46.500 way?

00:23:46.860 I'll

00:23:48.860 tell you,

00:23:49.700 if the

00:23:50.640 midterms

00:23:51.140 don't go

00:23:51.880 Trump's

00:23:52.380 way,

00:23:53.480 then I

00:23:53.940 think you

00:23:54.440 could conclude

00:23:55.320 that there's

00:23:57.080 no time in

00:23:57.740 the future

00:23:58.220 that the

00:23:59.320 incumbent

00:23:59.800 will get

00:24:00.920 the midterms

00:24:01.640 going their

00:24:02.160 way.

00:24:03.180 You know,

00:24:03.460 there's this

00:24:03.960 well-understood

00:24:05.440 natural impulse

00:24:06.560 for the

00:24:07.640 public to

00:24:08.220 want a,

00:24:08.960 essentially,

00:24:10.980 a constipated

00:24:12.160 government

00:24:12.620 where the

00:24:13.580 president is

00:24:14.240 one party

00:24:14.840 and the

00:24:15.400 Congress is

00:24:16.080 another.

00:24:16.860 So,

00:24:18.100 I don't

00:24:19.140 have confidence

00:24:20.100 that the

00:24:21.820 Trump

00:24:22.360 accomplishments

00:24:23.100 will be

00:24:24.960 permanent.

00:24:26.540 They might,

00:24:28.060 a lot of

00:24:28.680 things might

00:24:29.200 get reversed

00:24:29.820 in 2026.

00:24:31.760 We'll see.

00:24:33.700 Well,

00:24:34.260 how many

00:24:34.720 of you

00:24:35.180 would recognize

00:24:36.700 the name

00:24:37.100 Peter Zion?

00:24:38.600 Zion?

00:24:40.320 You might

00:24:41.060 see him on

00:24:41.600 social media

00:24:42.200 a lot.

00:24:42.720 He's a

00:24:43.260 ponytailed

00:24:44.700 geopolitical

00:24:45.680 strategist

00:24:46.440 who does

00:24:46.860 a lot

00:24:47.100 of social

00:24:47.460 media.

00:24:48.720 And he's

00:24:49.800 got a very

00:24:50.240 bearish outlook

00:24:51.120 on China's

00:24:52.160 future.

00:24:53.880 Now,

00:24:54.420 I don't

00:24:55.400 think that

00:24:57.120 I agree

00:24:57.780 with this,

00:24:59.320 but it's

00:25:00.460 very interesting

00:25:01.220 his point of view,

00:25:02.380 I'll tell it.

00:25:03.060 He says that

00:25:04.060 China looks like

00:25:05.540 it's this big,

00:25:06.260 powerful country

00:25:07.160 that's going to

00:25:07.800 eat our lunch,

00:25:08.920 but it might be

00:25:09.740 the opposite.

00:25:10.300 it might be

00:25:11.800 that China's

00:25:13.000 demographic

00:25:13.620 collapse

00:25:14.580 is going to

00:25:16.420 essentially

00:25:17.020 cripple them

00:25:17.980 forever,

00:25:19.480 and that

00:25:19.940 China's

00:25:20.500 heading for

00:25:21.220 a fall.

00:25:22.140 So as you

00:25:22.720 know,

00:25:23.320 China's not

00:25:23.940 producing enough

00:25:24.820 people to

00:25:25.340 replace the

00:25:26.100 ones they

00:25:26.460 have,

00:25:27.660 and their

00:25:29.060 existing people

00:25:30.060 are getting

00:25:30.420 older.

00:25:31.420 Now,

00:25:31.700 we have the

00:25:32.160 same problem,

00:25:33.300 and a lot of

00:25:33.880 countries have

00:25:34.480 that problem,

00:25:35.000 but probably

00:25:36.280 China has it

00:25:37.400 the worst,

00:25:38.560 and the U.S.

00:25:40.000 might be able

00:25:40.880 to find a way

00:25:41.600 past it.

00:25:43.540 It's a problem

00:25:44.440 everywhere.

00:25:45.640 But he thinks

00:25:46.440 that China's

00:25:47.240 going to go

00:25:47.700 hard,

00:25:48.420 go down hard,

00:25:49.540 and that they

00:25:50.320 have a fragile

00:25:51.120 financial system.

00:25:53.300 Now,

00:25:53.980 I don't know

00:25:54.560 about that,

00:25:55.680 but I wouldn't

00:25:56.460 be surprised

00:25:57.260 if that whole

00:25:58.820 communist

00:25:59.660 situation

00:26:00.420 didn't distort

00:26:01.420 their financial

00:26:02.280 situation,

00:26:03.180 to the point

00:26:04.400 where we're

00:26:06.240 just waiting

00:26:06.740 for it to

00:26:07.160 all blow

00:26:07.560 up.

00:26:08.520 Totally

00:26:08.940 possible.

00:26:10.160 Totally

00:26:10.400 possible.

00:26:13.160 And he

00:26:13.600 compares their

00:26:14.340 financial system

00:26:15.380 to Enron.

00:26:17.360 So they've

00:26:18.000 got lots of

00:26:18.600 debt,

00:26:19.240 and they have

00:26:19.720 inefficient

00:26:20.320 industries.

00:26:21.760 Do they?

00:26:22.720 Are their

00:26:23.120 industries

00:26:23.760 inefficient?

00:26:25.100 I don't know.

00:26:26.100 Depends

00:26:26.440 which ones.

00:26:28.700 And then,

00:26:30.020 this part of

00:26:30.940 the opinion

00:26:31.380 from Zayn

00:26:32.640 is really

00:26:33.760 interesting.

00:26:35.140 He thinks

00:26:36.120 that China's

00:26:38.220 dependence on

00:26:39.100 global trade

00:26:40.300 was protected

00:26:41.960 by the U.S.

00:26:42.960 Navy up until

00:26:43.900 this point,

00:26:45.280 meaning that

00:26:46.740 whether you

00:26:47.660 were China

00:26:48.120 or anyone

00:26:48.600 else,

00:26:49.380 it felt

00:26:49.800 reasonably safe

00:26:50.880 to put things

00:26:52.220 on a boat,

00:26:53.540 a ship,

00:26:54.520 and a ship

00:26:54.980 is somewhere.

00:26:55.820 He didn't

00:26:56.260 worry too much

00:26:56.900 about pirates.

00:26:58.840 And the

00:26:59.340 reason,

00:26:59.880 apparently,

00:27:00.740 according to

00:27:01.240 Zayn,

00:27:01.740 the reason you

00:27:02.300 didn't have to

00:27:02.780 worry about

00:27:03.200 pirates is

00:27:04.440 that the

00:27:04.820 U.S.

00:27:05.220 Navy would

00:27:05.920 blast those

00:27:06.660 pirates into

00:27:07.500 bits if

00:27:09.700 they got in

00:27:10.220 the way of

00:27:10.660 international

00:27:11.180 trade.

00:27:12.220 I don't know

00:27:12.960 if that's

00:27:13.320 true,

00:27:14.520 but it makes

00:27:16.880 China look

00:27:17.660 like it's

00:27:18.080 sort of

00:27:18.360 isolated,

00:27:19.500 and then a

00:27:20.100 lot of

00:27:20.460 countries are

00:27:21.720 trying to

00:27:22.040 bring their

00:27:22.420 manufacturing

00:27:23.120 internally and

00:27:26.220 find other

00:27:26.880 sources for

00:27:27.640 things.

00:27:27.980 so a lot

00:27:29.140 of people

00:27:29.460 who depended

00:27:30.080 on China

00:27:30.720 and bought

00:27:31.500 a lot of

00:27:31.840 stuff from

00:27:32.320 them might

00:27:33.500 be looking

00:27:33.860 for alternatives

00:27:34.920 and might

00:27:35.560 be able to

00:27:35.960 find them

00:27:36.400 in, you

00:27:37.460 know,

00:27:37.640 say,

00:27:37.980 the next

00:27:38.360 10 years.

00:27:40.320 And then

00:27:40.740 controversially,

00:27:43.300 you know,

00:27:43.720 China is doing

00:27:44.400 this Belt and

00:27:45.840 Road Initiative.

00:27:47.280 They're trying

00:27:47.960 to build

00:27:48.860 this, you

00:27:49.720 know,

00:27:49.860 immense

00:27:50.300 highway from

00:27:52.740 China to

00:27:53.760 other parts of

00:27:54.740 the connected

00:27:55.320 world so

00:27:56.840 that China

00:27:58.200 becomes the

00:27:58.900 dominant

00:27:59.280 trading,

00:28:00.140 you know,

00:28:00.740 trading

00:28:01.100 geography.

00:28:03.300 But Zeyan

00:28:04.340 thinks that

00:28:04.900 they might

00:28:05.240 be over,

00:28:08.340 what do

00:28:08.900 you call

00:28:09.200 it,

00:28:09.780 overextended,

00:28:11.660 overstretched

00:28:12.320 and unsustainable.

00:28:14.400 So I

00:28:16.000 would say I

00:28:17.100 don't agree

00:28:18.080 with Peter

00:28:18.700 Zeyan's

00:28:19.480 predictions

00:28:20.760 about China.

00:28:22.040 I do

00:28:22.940 believe that

00:28:23.580 they're lying

00:28:24.120 to us about

00:28:24.940 their finances

00:28:25.700 and about

00:28:26.680 their population.

00:28:27.840 That wouldn't

00:28:28.360 surprise me.

00:28:29.540 And I do

00:28:29.960 think that

00:28:30.800 they have

00:28:31.080 really big

00:28:31.560 challenges.

00:28:33.000 But China

00:28:33.980 is a,

00:28:35.440 I hate to

00:28:36.500 say it,

00:28:36.840 but it's a

00:28:37.200 well-managed

00:28:37.860 country relative

00:28:39.460 to other

00:28:39.920 countries.

00:28:40.940 I feel like

00:28:41.960 they can figure

00:28:42.640 their way

00:28:43.060 through it.

00:28:44.280 So I'm

00:28:45.480 not as

00:28:46.120 negative about

00:28:47.040 China's

00:28:48.120 future,

00:28:48.860 unfortunately.

00:28:50.120 You know,

00:28:50.680 I'd like them

00:28:51.660 to be a little

00:28:52.240 less strong

00:28:52.840 than they are,

00:28:53.420 but I feel

00:28:54.700 like they

00:28:55.060 get a lot

00:28:55.440 known for

00:28:55.860 them.

00:29:57.200 Laura Luber has

00:29:58.700 another scoop,

00:30:00.420 an exclusive.

00:30:03.020 She has

00:30:03.920 determined that

00:30:05.520 John Brennan's

00:30:07.480 ex-director of

00:30:08.980 operations for

00:30:10.240 when John

00:30:10.900 Brennan was

00:30:11.520 head of the

00:30:12.160 CIA under a

00:30:13.760 different president

00:30:14.460 is currently

00:30:16.620 working at the

00:30:17.420 Department of

00:30:18.120 Defense in the

00:30:19.280 Trump administration.

00:30:20.940 and he's a

00:30:21.860 senior advisor

00:30:22.760 to the

00:30:23.560 Deputy Secretary

00:30:24.560 of Defense.

00:30:26.600 Now, as

00:30:27.880 Laura Luber

00:30:28.560 points out,

00:30:30.220 she doesn't

00:30:30.980 say this

00:30:31.420 exactly, but

00:30:32.320 I'm reading

00:30:33.420 between the

00:30:34.040 lines.

00:30:34.340 it would be a

00:30:38.260 really, really

00:30:38.820 bad idea to

00:30:40.800 have anybody

00:30:41.440 who is loyal

00:30:42.260 to John

00:30:42.860 Brennan,

00:30:44.000 you know,

00:30:45.220 deep within

00:30:45.860 your administration.

00:30:47.800 Probably a

00:30:48.680 really bad

00:30:49.180 idea.

00:30:50.500 And so,

00:30:51.580 Laura Luber

00:30:52.040 is recommending

00:30:53.160 that he be

00:30:53.900 fired immediately.

00:30:55.920 I don't know

00:30:56.720 if that'll

00:30:57.140 happen,

00:30:57.460 but I

00:30:58.620 think I

00:30:59.180 would bet

00:30:59.660 on

00:31:00.100 Loomer

00:31:00.560 for this

00:31:01.160 one.

00:31:01.980 I think

00:31:02.420 once she

00:31:04.000 has surfaced

00:31:04.700 it as a

00:31:05.560 problem,

00:31:06.420 and it's

00:31:06.780 something you

00:31:07.260 can verify,

00:31:08.160 oh, this

00:31:08.700 guy does

00:31:09.380 work there.

00:31:10.660 He used

00:31:11.120 to be

00:31:11.380 Brandon's

00:31:11.880 guy.

00:31:13.620 That

00:31:14.180 probably is

00:31:15.040 enough for

00:31:16.760 something to

00:31:17.380 happen to

00:31:17.780 him.

00:31:18.080 So, if

00:31:18.820 it does,

00:31:20.340 Laura

00:31:20.560 Luber gets

00:31:21.280 another

00:31:21.720 scalp.

00:31:22.580 Matt

00:31:26.420 Gates

00:31:27.000 was

00:31:27.820 talking to

00:31:28.420 Mike

00:31:28.840 Benz on

00:31:29.540 a recent

00:31:30.940 podcast,

00:31:32.460 and they

00:31:33.580 were talking

00:31:33.940 about how

00:31:34.440 John Brennan

00:31:35.300 lied to

00:31:37.560 Congress

00:31:38.760 under oath.

00:31:40.140 But, as

00:31:41.000 you know,

00:31:41.600 most people

00:31:42.240 do not go to

00:31:43.080 jail for

00:31:43.540 lying under

00:31:44.220 oath to

00:31:45.020 Congress,

00:31:46.220 but it's

00:31:47.760 possible.

00:31:49.300 And

00:31:49.760 Brennan

00:31:51.000 asked,

00:31:51.420 I'm sorry,

00:31:53.120 Gates asked

00:31:54.060 Benz if

00:31:55.840 John Brennan

00:31:56.660 should be

00:31:57.120 prosecuted,

00:31:58.460 and Mike

00:31:58.980 Benz says

00:31:59.620 absolutely.

00:32:01.520 But my

00:32:02.140 question is

00:32:02.780 this, is

00:32:03.860 lying to

00:32:04.660 Congress the

00:32:05.460 worst thing

00:32:06.060 that you

00:32:06.400 could prosecute

00:32:07.900 Brennan for?

00:32:09.940 There are a

00:32:10.860 number of

00:32:11.120 things he

00:32:11.740 did or may

00:32:12.600 have done

00:32:13.040 or is

00:32:13.480 accused of

00:32:14.040 doing that

00:32:15.160 the statute

00:32:16.080 of limitations

00:32:16.980 may have

00:32:17.700 already run

00:32:18.680 out on.

00:32:20.160 And so,

00:32:20.840 I would

00:32:21.820 be very

00:32:22.520 surprised if

00:32:24.400 Brennan ever

00:32:25.060 got, you

00:32:25.940 know, arrested

00:32:26.520 and convicted

00:32:27.840 of anything.

00:32:29.640 I don't know.

00:32:31.280 But, DNI

00:32:32.600 director Tulsi

00:32:33.740 Gabbard has

00:32:34.720 apparently urged

00:32:36.740 the Justice

00:32:37.340 Department to

00:32:38.140 investigate and

00:32:39.520 maybe prosecute

00:32:40.580 Obama, John

00:32:43.360 Kerry, John

00:32:44.160 Brennan, Susan

00:32:44.900 Rice, and

00:32:45.400 Andrew McCabe

00:32:46.200 for fabricating

00:32:48.080 the Russia

00:32:48.860 interference

00:32:50.160 slash collusion

00:32:51.460 hoax.

00:32:53.000 But I would

00:32:53.840 ask again,

00:32:55.520 what law

00:32:56.400 got broken?

00:32:58.100 I don't know

00:32:58.960 if they broke

00:32:59.540 any laws with

00:33:01.380 the worst

00:33:01.960 stuff that they

00:33:02.580 did.

00:33:03.320 But I'm no

00:33:04.120 lawyer, so I'm

00:33:05.360 sure they can

00:33:05.820 always find some

00:33:06.540 law that got

00:33:07.160 broken.

00:33:07.460 I'm going to

00:33:10.960 say, I've

00:33:12.040 said it

00:33:12.300 before, but

00:33:12.960 I'll reiterate.

00:33:14.120 for most of

00:33:17.200 my adult

00:33:17.780 life, I

00:33:18.420 would have

00:33:18.660 said, no,

00:33:20.180 no, you

00:33:21.100 don't want to

00:33:21.480 go prosecuting

00:33:22.500 the last

00:33:23.040 administration.

00:33:24.600 Because once

00:33:25.540 you start

00:33:25.960 doing that,

00:33:27.260 everybody's

00:33:28.120 going to be

00:33:28.620 trying to

00:33:29.440 prosecute the

00:33:30.160 last

00:33:30.460 administration.

00:33:32.160 Except,

00:33:33.460 that's what

00:33:34.220 the Democrats

00:33:34.880 did to

00:33:35.340 Trump.

00:33:36.500 When he

00:33:36.880 was out

00:33:37.500 of office,

00:33:38.780 they went

00:33:39.100 after him.

00:33:40.800 And to

00:33:41.580 which I

00:33:41.920 say, well,

00:33:42.920 they took

00:33:44.460 the gloves

00:33:44.960 off.

00:33:45.980 They changed

00:33:46.620 the rules.

00:33:47.820 So I

00:33:48.320 believe that

00:33:48.860 they have

00:33:49.180 given Trump

00:33:50.080 a free

00:33:50.920 punch.

00:33:51.960 Meaning,

00:33:53.080 that if he

00:33:53.720 aggressively

00:33:54.400 tried to

00:33:55.240 jail the

00:33:56.600 people from

00:33:57.320 the prior

00:33:57.760 administration,

00:33:59.380 I feel like

00:34:00.060 he's totally

00:34:00.720 ethically,

00:34:02.400 morally,

00:34:03.780 legally,

00:34:04.780 politically,

00:34:07.220 he's exactly

00:34:08.380 where he

00:34:08.760 needs to

00:34:09.180 be.

00:34:10.380 Would it

00:34:11.140 be a

00:34:11.500 gigantic

00:34:12.100 problem?

00:34:12.920 to put

00:34:13.880 Barack

00:34:14.720 Obama in

00:34:15.420 jail?

00:34:16.500 Yeah.

00:34:17.860 Yeah.

00:34:18.360 It would

00:34:18.880 almost

00:34:19.320 certainly

00:34:19.800 cause

00:34:20.520 something

00:34:21.160 close to

00:34:22.720 a civil

00:34:23.200 war.

00:34:25.440 Wouldn't

00:34:26.080 you think?

00:34:27.400 I mean,

00:34:28.000 first of all,

00:34:28.920 I don't think

00:34:29.380 it'll happen.

00:34:30.660 But if you

00:34:31.700 can imagine

00:34:32.340 that there

00:34:33.360 was something

00:34:33.880 illegal about

00:34:34.840 trying to

00:34:35.320 overthrow the

00:34:35.920 government,

00:34:36.520 which is what

00:34:37.180 they apparently

00:34:37.920 did,

00:34:38.460 according to

00:34:38.980 the documents

00:34:40.340 we have.

00:34:43.340 If you

00:34:44.540 saw a

00:34:45.100 purple walk

00:34:45.820 in which

00:34:47.080 Brennan

00:34:47.720 and,

00:34:48.180 I don't

00:34:49.080 know,

00:34:50.440 Kerry and

00:34:51.480 Obama

00:34:52.140 were all

00:34:53.120 taken away

00:34:53.640 in handcuffs

00:34:54.360 and then

00:34:55.580 tried and

00:34:56.520 convicted and

00:34:57.300 put in jail,

00:34:58.720 you don't

00:34:59.440 think that

00:34:59.820 would cause

00:35:00.380 an actual

00:35:01.480 civil war?

00:35:03.220 It would.

00:35:04.020 And here's

00:35:06.720 what I would

00:35:07.180 say about

00:35:07.640 that.

00:35:09.000 Trump didn't

00:35:09.680 start the

00:35:10.140 war.

00:35:11.560 Trump did

00:35:12.180 not start

00:35:12.880 this war.

00:35:14.020 The war

00:35:14.500 is happening

00:35:15.180 with or

00:35:16.100 without Trump

00:35:16.800 doing anything.

00:35:18.520 The war

00:35:19.220 is raging

00:35:19.900 because they

00:35:21.480 would jail

00:35:23.960 Trump and

00:35:24.940 any of his

00:35:25.560 supporters in

00:35:26.820 a heartbeat

00:35:27.320 and they're

00:35:28.660 probably just

00:35:29.120 waiting to

00:35:29.640 get power

00:35:30.060 back so

00:35:30.560 they can

00:35:30.880 try it

00:35:31.260 again.

00:35:32.260 So,

00:35:32.540 given that

00:35:34.060 all the

00:35:34.860 gloves are

00:35:35.400 off,

00:35:36.320 all the

00:35:36.780 rules have

00:35:37.380 already been

00:35:37.900 broken and

00:35:39.000 the precedent

00:35:39.640 has been

00:35:40.200 set,

00:35:41.540 I'm

00:35:41.860 in favor

00:35:43.360 of jailing

00:35:45.400 any of

00:35:45.980 these named

00:35:47.000 people if

00:35:48.020 the justice

00:35:50.400 system decides

00:35:52.080 that that's

00:35:52.680 the right

00:35:53.120 answer.

00:35:54.560 Only if

00:35:55.600 there's a

00:35:57.440 case is

00:35:58.780 made.

00:36:01.100 But yeah,

00:36:01.660 I'll take

00:36:02.500 whatever

00:36:02.960 blowback.

00:36:04.540 I will

00:36:05.340 accept the

00:36:06.980 high risk

00:36:07.680 of a civil

00:36:08.240 war.

00:36:09.240 Absolutely.

00:36:10.940 Yeah.

00:36:11.360 We can't

00:36:12.220 live in a

00:36:12.660 country where

00:36:14.040 you can just

00:36:14.800 make up a

00:36:15.460 hoax and

00:36:16.420 put somebody

00:36:17.600 in jail and

00:36:18.500 take them

00:36:19.120 out of the

00:36:19.420 race.

00:36:20.100 Nope.

00:36:21.240 Nope.

00:36:23.300 If there's

00:36:24.780 a gigantic

00:36:25.740 blowback,

00:36:27.100 it just

00:36:28.940 seems like

00:36:29.480 we're ready

00:36:29.940 to take that

00:36:30.620 blowback.

00:36:31.160 we almost

00:36:31.980 have to.

00:36:34.420 All right.

00:36:35.680 Probably to

00:36:36.880 distract us

00:36:37.960 from other

00:36:38.620 things like

00:36:39.260 the Epstein

00:36:39.720 story, or

00:36:40.940 maybe a

00:36:41.560 coincidence,

00:36:43.100 but a

00:36:44.300 whole bunch

00:36:44.700 of MLK

00:36:45.540 files have

00:36:46.300 been released

00:36:46.920 from the

00:36:48.160 FBI, etc.

00:36:49.980 230,000

00:36:51.180 documents about

00:36:52.240 MLK's

00:36:53.040 assassination.

00:36:54.880 Do you

00:36:55.420 think that

00:36:56.340 we're going to

00:36:56.720 learn anything

00:36:57.260 we didn't

00:36:57.700 know?

00:36:57.920 I doubt

00:37:00.280 it.

00:37:01.240 I don't

00:37:02.000 think so.

00:37:03.180 But it's

00:37:04.860 a step in

00:37:06.360 the right

00:37:07.740 direction.

00:37:10.460 So maybe

00:37:11.400 it'll be

00:37:11.760 fun.

00:37:12.260 Maybe it's

00:37:12.660 just a

00:37:13.080 distraction.

00:37:15.360 Speaker

00:37:15.960 Mike Johnson

00:37:16.740 says there

00:37:17.620 will be no

00:37:18.180 House vote

00:37:18.840 on releasing

00:37:19.500 the Epstein

00:37:20.100 files before

00:37:21.660 the August

00:37:22.340 recess.

00:37:22.840 now, I

00:37:27.540 don't

00:37:27.760 understand

00:37:28.260 that story

00:37:29.100 because are

00:37:31.100 you telling

00:37:31.480 me that

00:37:32.360 there are

00:37:32.760 documents that

00:37:34.560 somehow the

00:37:36.580 Congress could

00:37:37.700 vote to

00:37:38.260 release that

00:37:39.820 have somehow

00:37:40.660 not been

00:37:42.260 released to

00:37:42.880 this point

00:37:43.420 that would

00:37:44.360 somehow tell

00:37:45.060 us something

00:37:45.460 we didn't

00:37:45.940 already know?

00:37:47.480 Why is this

00:37:48.380 even a thing?

00:37:50.260 What exactly

00:37:51.120 is the thing?

00:37:51.800 that Congress

00:37:54.380 can vote

00:37:55.100 that we'll

00:37:55.840 see some

00:37:56.420 files that

00:37:57.100 we've never

00:37:57.580 seen before

00:37:58.320 and that

00:37:59.200 that's where

00:37:59.600 the good

00:38:00.020 stuff will

00:38:00.500 be?

00:38:01.640 I don't

00:38:02.000 know.

00:38:02.680 I don't

00:38:03.600 even understand

00:38:04.720 what it is

00:38:05.460 that we might

00:38:06.840 look at

00:38:07.380 that's extra.

00:38:10.260 So,

00:38:12.040 no rush

00:38:13.120 there.

00:38:13.420 apparently,

00:38:17.140 according to

00:38:17.800 Pam Bondi

00:38:18.720 and one

00:38:20.160 of her

00:38:20.460 underlings,

00:38:22.060 the Department

00:38:22.540 of Justice

00:38:23.100 is going to

00:38:23.800 try to

00:38:24.720 interview

00:38:25.800 Ghislaine

00:38:26.720 Maxwell

00:38:27.240 to find out

00:38:28.720 what she

00:38:29.100 knows about

00:38:29.720 other

00:38:30.300 offenders.

00:38:32.000 To which I

00:38:33.080 say,

00:38:34.140 wait a minute,

00:38:35.800 are you

00:38:36.220 telling me

00:38:36.820 that the

00:38:37.420 Department of

00:38:38.000 Justice and

00:38:38.820 the FBI

00:38:39.380 have not

00:38:40.800 already asked

00:38:41.940 Ghislaine

00:38:42.720 Maxwell

00:38:43.180 to tell

00:38:44.900 them everything

00:38:45.460 that she

00:38:45.920 could tell?

00:38:48.060 What?

00:38:49.360 How does

00:38:49.960 that make

00:38:50.340 sense?

00:38:51.520 But apparently

00:38:52.120 that's the

00:38:52.960 case because

00:38:54.560 the effort

00:38:55.860 to interview

00:38:57.560 her and

00:38:58.620 talk to

00:38:59.060 her is

00:39:00.360 now like

00:39:01.580 a national

00:39:02.180 story.

00:39:03.740 But seriously?

00:39:04.920 We didn't

00:39:07.200 already have

00:39:07.760 the Department

00:39:08.320 of Justice

00:39:08.860 and the

00:39:09.320 FBI asking

00:39:10.720 her for

00:39:12.640 what she

00:39:13.060 could tell

00:39:13.480 us about

00:39:13.880 Epstein?

00:39:15.040 No.

00:39:17.060 And if

00:39:18.240 you were

00:39:18.580 Ghislaine

00:39:19.000 Maxwell,

00:39:20.160 would you

00:39:20.720 take that

00:39:21.360 meeting?

00:39:21.980 I mean,

00:39:22.400 at this point

00:39:22.940 when you're

00:39:23.340 already in

00:39:23.800 jail?

00:39:25.440 I would

00:39:26.220 not.

00:39:27.740 Unless

00:39:28.260 they offer

00:39:29.180 me a deal.

00:39:30.620 So if I

00:39:31.160 were Ghislaine,

00:39:31.900 I would say,

00:39:33.000 so,

00:39:33.920 you want to

00:39:34.400 find out

00:39:34.840 everything I

00:39:35.540 know about

00:39:35.980 Epstein?

00:39:37.160 Yes, we

00:39:37.680 do.

00:39:38.760 All right,

00:39:39.320 here's the

00:39:39.740 deal.

00:39:40.820 You

00:39:41.220 released me

00:39:43.160 from prison

00:39:43.740 and you

00:39:45.240 might have

00:39:45.620 to serve

00:39:46.480 another year

00:39:47.100 or something.

00:39:50.020 But I'll

00:39:50.680 tell you

00:39:51.120 everything I

00:39:51.860 know, but

00:39:53.380 you have to

00:39:53.780 let me out

00:39:54.220 of prison.

00:39:56.040 Would you

00:39:56.820 take that

00:39:57.520 deal?

00:39:58.540 If you

00:39:59.200 didn't know

00:39:59.860 what she

00:40:00.280 was going

00:40:00.660 to tell

00:40:01.000 you, so

00:40:01.940 you don't

00:40:02.280 know how

00:40:02.640 valuable it

00:40:03.300 is, but

00:40:04.380 she says,

00:40:04.880 I'm not

00:40:05.140 going to

00:40:05.340 tell you

00:40:05.700 anything

00:40:06.220 unless you

00:40:07.600 pardon me

00:40:09.220 and I

00:40:10.240 get out

00:40:10.580 of jail.

00:40:11.700 Would you

00:40:12.340 take that

00:40:12.880 deal?

00:40:14.120 Because she

00:40:14.760 would be

00:40:15.200 insane to

00:40:16.020 do it for

00:40:16.500 nothing when

00:40:18.200 she has this

00:40:18.940 leverage she

00:40:20.020 can negotiate

00:40:20.880 with.

00:40:21.940 And then

00:40:22.200 what happens

00:40:22.900 if they

00:40:23.740 agree?

00:40:24.380 She gets

00:40:24.720 pardoned,

00:40:25.300 she's

00:40:25.520 released from

00:40:26.100 jail,

00:40:26.860 she does

00:40:27.540 in fact do

00:40:28.160 the interviews

00:40:28.740 as long as

00:40:29.440 they want

00:40:29.860 answers every

00:40:30.700 question,

00:40:31.820 but you

00:40:33.320 don't really

00:40:33.880 find out

00:40:34.460 anything new

00:40:35.240 because maybe

00:40:37.080 she doesn't

00:40:37.700 know anything

00:40:38.340 that you

00:40:41.560 don't already

00:40:42.140 know, maybe.

00:40:43.240 I would think

00:40:43.940 she would,

00:40:44.900 but she could

00:40:45.440 lie and

00:40:46.620 say, yeah,

00:40:47.740 all these

00:40:48.160 important people

00:40:48.980 came through,

00:40:49.980 but I wasn't

00:40:51.220 there when

00:40:51.580 anything bad

00:40:52.180 happened.

00:40:53.040 So, you

00:40:54.520 know, yeah,

00:40:55.280 I do know

00:40:55.900 Prince Andrew.

00:40:57.360 Yeah, they

00:40:58.020 did hang out

00:40:58.920 together, but

00:41:00.280 I was not in

00:41:01.140 the room when

00:41:01.800 anything illegal

00:41:02.500 happened, so

00:41:03.980 I can't tell you

00:41:04.700 anything happened

00:41:05.360 or not.

00:41:06.180 I wasn't in

00:41:06.720 the room.

00:41:09.060 So, maybe

00:41:10.540 we'll find out

00:41:11.340 something through

00:41:12.000 that path, but

00:41:13.360 maybe she

00:41:15.760 found a way

00:41:16.360 out of jail.

00:41:17.320 When I found

00:41:18.200 out my friend

00:41:18.840 got a great deal

00:41:19.800 on a wool coat

00:41:20.560 from Winners,

00:41:21.380 I started

00:41:22.160 wondering, is

00:41:23.340 every fabulous

00:41:24.400 item I see

00:41:25.100 from Winners?

00:41:26.200 Like that

00:41:26.700 woman over

00:41:27.160 there with

00:41:27.640 the designer

00:41:28.080 jeans.

00:41:28.920 Are those

00:41:29.500 from Winners?

00:41:30.420 Ooh, or

00:41:31.200 those beautiful

00:41:31.720 gold earrings?

00:41:32.880 Did she pay

00:41:33.320 full price?

00:41:34.220 Or that

00:41:34.500 leather tote?

00:41:35.260 Or that

00:41:35.500 cashmere

00:41:35.860 sweater?

00:41:36.480 Or those

00:41:36.780 knee-high

00:41:37.100 boots?

00:41:37.920 That dress?

00:41:38.700 That jacket?

00:41:39.380 Those shoes?

00:41:40.420 Is anyone

00:41:41.200 paying full

00:41:41.820 price for

00:41:42.380 anything?

00:41:43.360 Stop

00:41:43.840 wondering.

00:41:44.620 Start winning.

00:41:45.560 Winners.

00:41:46.140 Find fabulous

00:41:46.820 for less.

00:41:49.060 I saw a

00:41:50.220 post on

00:41:51.420 X from

00:41:52.040 Valerie Ann

00:41:53.000 Smith

00:41:53.480 talking about

00:41:55.080 how bad

00:41:55.660 the medical

00:41:56.440 system in

00:41:57.160 the United

00:41:57.520 States is

00:41:58.140 and how

00:41:58.540 corrupt it

00:41:59.200 is.

00:42:00.420 And there

00:42:01.000 were a

00:42:01.440 number of

00:42:01.940 claims,

00:42:03.200 including

00:42:03.700 that were

00:42:04.600 in her

00:42:04.980 thread,

00:42:06.340 that orthopedic

00:42:07.760 surgeons are

00:42:08.680 the most

00:42:09.120 corrupt

00:42:09.680 because they

00:42:11.360 have incentives

00:42:12.460 for using

00:42:13.740 certain devices.

00:42:15.860 So,

00:42:16.780 apparently,

00:42:17.440 your orthopedic

00:42:18.560 surgeon has

00:42:19.720 a choice of

00:42:20.460 what kind of

00:42:21.220 artificial things

00:42:22.760 they'll put in

00:42:23.400 your body

00:42:23.900 or what

00:42:24.960 they use

00:42:25.580 and they

00:42:26.240 will pick

00:42:26.680 them based

00:42:27.240 on the

00:42:27.900 biggest

00:42:28.180 payout

00:42:28.660 and bonus

00:42:29.280 and not

00:42:30.280 necessarily

00:42:30.880 on what's

00:42:31.400 good for

00:42:31.860 you.

00:42:33.580 Did you

00:42:34.300 know that?

00:42:35.600 Do you

00:42:36.040 believe that

00:42:36.700 there are

00:42:37.040 other parts

00:42:38.120 of the

00:42:38.700 healthcare

00:42:39.840 system

00:42:40.500 where some

00:42:42.020 doctor or

00:42:42.740 surgeon is

00:42:44.000 making decisions

00:42:44.920 based on their

00:42:45.720 payout as

00:42:47.460 opposed to

00:42:48.060 your benefit

00:42:48.680 as a

00:42:49.080 patient?

00:42:50.220 Of course

00:42:50.980 there are.

00:42:52.600 I know of

00:42:53.860 a few,

00:42:55.000 but I'm not

00:42:55.580 going to mention

00:42:56.060 them because I

00:42:56.600 don't need the

00:42:57.120 lawsuits.

00:42:58.280 But is it

00:42:59.020 true that our

00:42:59.700 healthcare system

00:43:00.760 is now

00:43:01.720 completely corrupt

00:43:02.920 by the big

00:43:06.020 money people

00:43:06.820 who can corrupt

00:43:07.620 people?

00:43:08.480 And the answer

00:43:08.960 seems to be

00:43:09.740 yes.

00:43:12.440 And there's

00:43:14.220 a suggestion

00:43:14.900 that you should

00:43:16.040 never go in

00:43:16.640 a hospital

00:43:17.120 unless you

00:43:17.760 have an

00:43:18.100 advocate with

00:43:18.920 you.

00:43:19.860 And that

00:43:20.340 it's so bad,

00:43:22.580 the claim is,

00:43:24.260 it's so bad

00:43:25.040 that you should

00:43:26.100 never leave

00:43:26.760 somebody in

00:43:27.300 the hospital

00:43:27.900 alone.

00:43:29.760 Just think

00:43:30.600 about that.

00:43:31.860 You should

00:43:32.520 never leave

00:43:33.260 them alone

00:43:33.940 in the hospital

00:43:34.780 because what

00:43:35.820 happens if

00:43:36.480 there's no

00:43:37.260 family member

00:43:37.980 there,

00:43:39.080 then somebody

00:43:40.140 comes in

00:43:40.880 and talks

00:43:41.580 the patient

00:43:42.180 who's maybe

00:43:43.200 medicated

00:43:43.960 anyway,

00:43:45.040 into some

00:43:45.860 procedure they

00:43:46.540 don't need.

00:43:48.100 And if

00:43:49.340 you had a

00:43:49.920 family member

00:43:50.660 there,

00:43:51.060 they could

00:43:51.360 say,

00:43:51.640 oh,

00:43:51.860 hold on,

00:43:52.920 wait,

00:43:53.200 what is it

00:43:53.700 you're

00:43:53.880 recommending?

00:43:55.620 And why

00:43:56.640 do you think

00:43:57.160 that's absolutely

00:43:57.880 necessary?

00:43:59.440 And what

00:44:00.400 does that

00:44:00.760 cost?

00:44:01.880 And if

00:44:02.480 you're not

00:44:02.900 doing that

00:44:03.540 all the

00:44:04.920 time,

00:44:06.360 you might

00:44:07.400 get killed

00:44:08.140 by bad

00:44:09.980 healthcare.

00:44:10.360 healthcare.

00:44:11.240 Now,

00:44:11.780 how many

00:44:12.300 people do

00:44:12.820 you think

00:44:13.160 die every

00:44:13.880 year from

00:44:15.420 the category

00:44:16.460 of medical

00:44:17.360 error per

00:44:20.640 year?

00:44:22.120 Well,

00:44:23.160 in 2016,

00:44:25.180 and I think

00:44:25.760 through 2019,

00:44:27.100 the number

00:44:27.960 was about

00:44:28.400 the same,

00:44:29.580 250,000

00:44:31.160 people die

00:44:32.760 from medical

00:44:33.460 errors every

00:44:35.000 year.

00:44:35.420 250,000

00:44:38.740 from just

00:44:40.600 medical

00:44:41.100 errors

00:44:41.680 every year.

00:44:44.920 Now,

00:44:45.780 some might

00:44:46.520 say that I

00:44:47.660 could have

00:44:48.040 been one of

00:44:48.500 those people,

00:44:49.840 but so far

00:44:50.920 so good.

00:44:53.440 And

00:44:54.040 let me ask

00:44:56.460 you this.

00:44:56.940 it's going

00:44:59.440 to sound

00:44:59.840 like I'm

00:45:00.340 changing the

00:45:01.000 topic,

00:45:02.100 but watch

00:45:02.980 me tie it

00:45:03.620 all together,

00:45:04.200 okay?

00:45:05.200 So we'll

00:45:05.720 come back

00:45:06.400 to this,

00:45:07.840 but through

00:45:08.920 a different

00:45:09.320 topic.

00:45:11.600 I ran,

00:45:12.260 I'm fascinated

00:45:12.920 by the fact

00:45:13.700 that there's

00:45:14.440 excess

00:45:15.700 mortality

00:45:16.440 that's pretty

00:45:17.940 big,

00:45:18.660 that's happening

00:45:19.760 in the United

00:45:20.380 States and

00:45:21.000 maybe other

00:45:21.440 places,

00:45:22.580 since the

00:45:23.660 pandemic.

00:45:25.360 Now,

00:45:25.760 I ran

00:45:26.880 a little

00:45:27.320 unscientific

00:45:29.240 poll on

00:45:29.760 X and

00:45:30.760 I asked

00:45:31.080 people did

00:45:31.660 they think

00:45:32.040 the excess

00:45:32.600 mortality was

00:45:33.880 coming from

00:45:34.460 the COVID

00:45:35.120 shots and

00:45:36.220 some kind

00:45:36.660 of bad

00:45:36.960 reactions

00:45:37.420 people have

00:45:37.980 or from

00:45:39.120 COVID

00:45:39.660 infections

00:45:40.500 that might

00:45:41.300 have some

00:45:41.800 ongoing

00:45:42.260 problems

00:45:42.880 or from,

00:45:44.760 I threw

00:45:45.220 in this

00:45:45.560 category,

00:45:46.560 increased

00:45:47.200 loneliness

00:45:47.980 because,

00:45:50.700 I don't

00:45:51.280 know if

00:45:51.500 you know

00:45:51.760 this,

00:45:52.240 but loneliness

00:45:53.060 is very

00:45:53.880 strongly

00:45:54.320 correlated

00:45:54.980 with

00:45:55.420 early

00:45:55.860 mortality,

00:45:57.800 that lonely

00:45:59.000 people just

00:45:59.800 die faster.

00:46:01.740 They die

00:46:02.580 faster.

00:46:03.960 So,

00:46:05.720 since we,

00:46:06.920 I think we

00:46:07.620 know anecdotally,

00:46:08.940 if not with

00:46:09.980 data,

00:46:10.880 that a lot

00:46:11.960 of people

00:46:12.320 who got

00:46:12.760 locked in

00:46:13.740 during the

00:46:14.160 pandemic

00:46:14.560 never really

00:46:15.920 recovered their

00:46:16.820 social circle,

00:46:18.620 meaning that

00:46:19.500 if they were

00:46:20.820 lonely during

00:46:22.320 the pandemic,

00:46:22.940 they didn't

00:46:24.600 always recover

00:46:25.420 from that.

00:46:26.560 So,

00:46:26.740 they may

00:46:26.980 have just

00:46:27.320 become

00:46:27.740 loners

00:46:28.280 and lost

00:46:29.760 their social

00:46:30.260 network.

00:46:31.420 And then you

00:46:31.800 throw in the

00:46:32.480 political

00:46:32.960 differences where

00:46:33.840 you're not

00:46:34.360 allowed to be

00:46:34.880 friends with

00:46:35.380 somebody who

00:46:35.840 voted the

00:46:36.320 other way.

00:46:37.380 I would say

00:46:38.140 that the

00:46:38.560 loneliness

00:46:39.220 epidemic is

00:46:42.460 probably killing

00:46:43.260 a lot of

00:46:43.660 people.

00:46:44.860 So,

00:46:45.060 I wondered,

00:46:45.600 and then the

00:46:46.000 other category

00:46:46.640 in the poll

00:46:47.100 was something

00:46:47.680 else.

00:46:48.640 72% of

00:46:49.960 the people

00:46:50.280 who answered

00:46:50.680 that unscientific

00:46:51.880 poll said

00:46:53.100 they thought

00:46:53.540 the COVID

00:46:55.060 shots were

00:46:56.380 the biggest

00:46:57.180 explanation for

00:46:59.040 excess mortality.

00:47:01.680 Now,

00:47:02.400 you know

00:47:02.660 that I'm a

00:47:03.500 bit skeptical

00:47:04.320 on all

00:47:05.520 things pandemic,

00:47:07.440 but that's

00:47:08.400 possible.

00:47:09.940 Yeah,

00:47:10.180 let me say

00:47:11.280 as clearly

00:47:12.000 as I can,

00:47:13.620 it's possible

00:47:14.420 that the

00:47:16.040 COVID shots

00:47:16.860 are the

00:47:17.140 reason for

00:47:17.620 the excess

00:47:18.100 mortality.

00:47:19.660 But,

00:47:20.340 if you spend

00:47:21.380 a little time

00:47:21.940 trying to

00:47:22.400 Google the

00:47:23.180 answer and

00:47:24.340 find out if

00:47:25.080 there's any

00:47:25.500 correlation,

00:47:26.880 you will learn

00:47:27.500 the following.

00:47:29.860 There's no

00:47:30.620 good data to

00:47:31.780 tell you if

00:47:32.560 the vaccinations

00:47:33.700 are killing

00:47:35.460 people or

00:47:36.680 keeping them

00:47:37.340 alive.

00:47:38.580 They do have

00:47:39.620 data about

00:47:41.060 hospitalizations

00:47:42.460 and people

00:47:43.720 who died

00:47:44.200 right away

00:47:44.680 from it,

00:47:45.300 et cetera,

00:47:45.780 but there

00:47:46.800 is no

00:47:47.300 data that

00:47:48.800 would be

00:47:49.140 reliable

00:47:49.680 that would

00:47:50.720 say that

00:47:51.160 several years

00:47:51.880 after you

00:47:52.360 got your

00:47:52.640 vaccination,

00:47:54.180 it may or

00:47:54.960 may not

00:47:55.300 make you

00:47:55.660 less healthy.

00:47:56.900 There's no

00:47:57.520 data that

00:47:58.460 you can rely

00:47:59.120 on that

00:47:59.460 would tell

00:47:59.700 you that.

00:47:59.960 so we

00:48:00.640 don't know.

00:48:02.140 But,

00:48:02.940 if you

00:48:03.940 said,

00:48:04.620 as somebody

00:48:05.220 said in

00:48:05.580 the comments

00:48:06.100 to this,

00:48:07.400 that the

00:48:08.140 type of

00:48:08.780 things that

00:48:09.320 people are

00:48:09.700 dying from

00:48:10.340 are exactly

00:48:12.000 the things

00:48:12.580 that were

00:48:12.880 predicted by

00:48:14.400 the potential

00:48:15.580 side effects

00:48:16.240 of the

00:48:16.760 COVID shots,

00:48:18.240 do you believe

00:48:18.980 that?

00:48:19.280 do you

00:48:20.440 believe that

00:48:20.900 the exact

00:48:21.600 types of

00:48:22.560 things people

00:48:23.220 are dying

00:48:23.720 from more

00:48:24.580 than they

00:48:24.940 ever did

00:48:25.460 are exactly

00:48:27.060 the things

00:48:27.640 we were

00:48:28.100 worried about

00:48:28.960 with the

00:48:30.280 shots?

00:48:32.120 Well,

00:48:32.840 some of those

00:48:33.680 categories would

00:48:34.620 be, for

00:48:35.000 example,

00:48:36.200 heart disease.

00:48:38.460 But, you

00:48:39.260 know,

00:48:39.520 there are lots

00:48:40.400 of things that

00:48:41.000 cause heart

00:48:41.420 disease.

00:48:42.260 Cancer.

00:48:42.640 cancer.

00:48:43.720 But,

00:48:44.440 there are

00:48:44.940 lots of

00:48:45.280 things that

00:48:45.720 cause cancer.

00:48:47.960 And so

00:48:49.400 on.

00:48:50.600 But, did

00:48:51.140 you know

00:48:51.700 that the

00:48:53.140 number of

00:48:53.600 people who

00:48:54.000 died in

00:48:54.540 accidents is

00:48:56.260 way up?

00:48:57.900 Since the,

00:48:59.700 even if you

00:49:00.220 look at the

00:49:00.660 baseline from

00:49:01.440 before the

00:49:01.980 pandemic,

00:49:04.060 car accidents

00:49:04.920 are way up.

00:49:08.060 And also,

00:49:09.280 hospital deaths,

00:49:11.440 the medical

00:49:12.180 errors,

00:49:13.120 remember I

00:49:13.520 told you

00:49:13.920 that 250,000

00:49:15.680 people a

00:49:16.300 year were

00:49:17.200 dying from

00:49:17.680 medical problems

00:49:18.500 before the

00:49:19.160 pandemic?

00:49:20.080 This is before

00:49:20.760 the pandemic.

00:49:22.900 Guess how

00:49:23.640 many people

00:49:24.100 are dying

00:49:24.540 now,

00:49:25.840 after the

00:49:26.420 pandemic,

00:49:27.520 from medical

00:49:28.260 errors?

00:49:29.680 It was

00:49:30.340 250,000

00:49:31.600 before the

00:49:32.440 pandemic,

00:49:33.560 and then we

00:49:34.140 fast forward

00:49:34.880 through the

00:49:35.260 pandemic,

00:49:35.820 because that

00:49:36.120 changes

00:49:36.480 everything,

00:49:37.460 to after

00:49:37.980 the pandemic.

00:49:39.840 What do

00:49:40.480 you think

00:49:40.780 the medical

00:49:41.340 errors did?

00:49:42.180 shot through

00:49:43.740 the roof.

00:49:45.340 The medical

00:49:46.140 error deaths

00:49:47.180 might be as

00:49:49.320 high as

00:49:49.660 400,000

00:49:50.640 from 250.

00:49:53.700 What?

00:49:55.420 Now,

00:49:56.580 would that

00:49:57.140 have anything

00:49:58.040 to do with

00:49:58.560 vaccinations?

00:49:59.740 I don't think

00:50:00.660 so.

00:50:01.520 Would car

00:50:02.460 accidents have

00:50:03.420 anything to do

00:50:04.120 with vaccinations?

00:50:04.800 I don't see

00:50:07.140 how.

00:50:09.240 So, we

00:50:10.080 have this

00:50:10.460 weird mystery

00:50:11.420 where, if

00:50:12.720 you said to

00:50:13.240 me, Scott,

00:50:14.760 is it

00:50:15.280 consistent with

00:50:16.360 our observations

00:50:17.260 that the

00:50:18.760 COVID shots

00:50:19.600 might be the

00:50:20.160 reason for the

00:50:20.760 excess mortality?

00:50:21.720 mortality?

00:50:22.220 I would say to

00:50:23.200 you, yes.

00:50:25.160 Yes, that

00:50:25.800 would be

00:50:26.160 consistent with

00:50:28.620 what we're

00:50:29.040 observing, although

00:50:30.540 what we're

00:50:31.020 observing data

00:50:32.140 wise is really

00:50:32.940 sketchy, so

00:50:34.420 the data is not

00:50:35.460 great.

00:50:36.160 The one thing we

00:50:36.960 do seem to know

00:50:37.820 for sure is

00:50:39.320 that excess

00:50:39.920 mortality is way

00:50:41.440 high.

00:50:42.600 So, I don't

00:50:43.500 think there's any

00:50:44.220 real question

00:50:45.000 about whether

00:50:45.720 excess mortality

00:50:46.700 exists, and I

00:50:48.620 would agree with

00:50:49.280 all of you, that

00:50:50.680 if you were

00:50:51.100 looking at what

00:50:51.840 changed, an

00:50:54.320 obvious thing to

00:50:55.120 look at would be

00:50:55.820 the vaccination

00:50:56.440 situation.

00:50:57.840 Now, to add to

00:50:59.180 the mystery, how

00:51:01.160 many of you are

00:51:02.000 aware of what

00:51:04.020 RFK Jr.'s opinion

00:51:05.680 is on older

00:51:07.400 adults, I'm

00:51:08.500 limiting it to

00:51:09.380 older adults,

00:51:10.660 older adults

00:51:11.400 only, getting

00:51:13.480 the COVID

00:51:14.380 vaccination today

00:51:15.840 when we're not

00:51:16.760 in the pandemic?

00:51:17.820 How many of you

00:51:18.880 would know

00:51:19.380 RFK Jr.'s

00:51:20.580 preference on

00:51:21.420 that?

00:51:22.920 Well, I don't.

00:51:25.040 I don't know.

00:51:27.040 Wouldn't you

00:51:27.760 assume that if

00:51:29.620 it's obvious that

00:51:31.000 the excess

00:51:31.600 mortality is coming

00:51:32.760 from the shots,

00:51:34.320 that the one

00:51:35.320 person who would

00:51:36.080 definitely know

00:51:36.840 that would be

00:51:38.680 RFK Jr., right?

00:51:41.740 So, and then

00:51:42.720 he's also

00:51:43.360 famously, I

00:51:46.100 don't want to

00:51:46.560 say he's

00:51:47.060 anti-vaccination

00:51:48.760 general for

00:51:49.660 other kinds of

00:51:50.480 vaccinations as

00:51:51.400 well.

00:51:51.960 I would say

00:51:52.600 that he's a

00:51:53.380 maniac for

00:51:54.200 having data

00:51:54.960 so that

00:51:57.300 whatever it is

00:51:58.400 that you do

00:51:58.880 is backed by

00:51:59.480 data.

00:52:01.220 I don't like

00:52:02.140 calling him

00:52:03.140 just a skeptic

00:52:04.120 or something.

00:52:04.960 That seems

00:52:05.480 too dismissive.

00:52:07.340 So, here's

00:52:08.360 the answer.

00:52:09.620 We don't

00:52:10.180 know.

00:52:10.480 So, RFK Jr.,

00:52:13.380 the most

00:52:13.900 important, and

00:52:15.040 I would say

00:52:15.840 the voice you

00:52:16.740 could trust the

00:52:17.660 most to not

00:52:19.160 only dig into

00:52:20.000 the correct

00:52:20.640 data and

00:52:21.400 know which

00:52:21.760 data matters

00:52:22.560 and what

00:52:22.920 doesn't, and

00:52:24.380 you also know

00:52:25.140 that you

00:52:25.440 wouldn't lie

00:52:26.160 to protect

00:52:26.820 the big

00:52:28.240 pharma companies.

00:52:30.000 So, if there

00:52:30.540 was one person

00:52:31.540 you could look

00:52:32.380 to to say,

00:52:34.100 what about

00:52:34.820 this excess

00:52:35.560 mortality?

00:52:36.340 Do you think

00:52:36.700 this might be

00:52:37.320 caused by the

00:52:38.100 COVID vaccination?

00:52:39.780 He's silent

00:52:40.700 on it.

00:52:42.640 Why?

00:52:43.900 The only

00:52:44.720 reason that I

00:52:45.460 can imagine

00:52:45.960 is that there's

00:52:46.880 no data that

00:52:47.720 makes the case

00:52:48.580 either way.

00:52:50.600 I would think

00:52:51.720 that if he

00:52:52.720 was convinced

00:52:53.520 that the

00:52:54.920 COVID shots

00:52:55.700 were helping

00:52:56.720 older people,

00:52:58.480 you know,

00:52:58.700 not pregnant

00:52:59.340 ladies, not

00:53:00.160 young people,

00:53:00.780 but just older

00:53:01.400 people, if he

00:53:02.740 were confident

00:53:03.540 that it was

00:53:04.700 helping more

00:53:05.340 people than

00:53:05.840 it was hurting,

00:53:06.500 don't you

00:53:08.000 think you'd

00:53:08.460 know that

00:53:08.800 by now?

00:53:10.160 Don't you

00:53:10.520 think he

00:53:10.840 would have

00:53:11.140 mentioned it?

00:53:12.580 And likewise,

00:53:13.580 if he thought

00:53:14.180 that the shots

00:53:14.940 most likely,

00:53:16.280 even not

00:53:16.780 guaranteed,

00:53:17.860 but if he

00:53:18.380 thought they

00:53:18.720 were most

00:53:19.220 likely the

00:53:19.980 cause of

00:53:20.440 the problems,

00:53:21.620 don't you

00:53:22.060 think he

00:53:22.380 would have

00:53:22.620 mentioned it

00:53:23.060 by now?

00:53:24.720 So, that's

00:53:25.440 part of the

00:53:25.900 mystery, is

00:53:27.280 that he

00:53:27.640 hasn't weighed

00:53:28.200 in on it.

00:53:29.600 I don't know

00:53:30.360 why.

00:53:31.400 I don't have

00:53:32.160 the best idea

00:53:32.780 why.

00:53:33.560 Probably the

00:53:34.160 data is bad,

00:53:35.120 but I don't

00:53:35.720 know that.

00:53:36.500 All right.

00:53:38.820 So, what

00:53:39.900 is it that

00:53:40.420 would cause

00:53:41.140 these unrelated

00:53:43.080 things like

00:53:44.020 hospital errors

00:53:45.120 and automobile

00:53:46.820 accidents, and

00:53:48.520 for a while

00:53:49.000 the overdose

00:53:49.840 deaths were

00:53:50.520 up?

00:53:51.280 I believe,

00:53:52.680 I hate

00:53:54.040 using this

00:53:54.640 word, but

00:53:55.720 the self-harm

00:53:57.320 category, I

00:53:58.740 think, is

00:53:59.080 up.

00:54:00.440 What else

00:54:01.360 has changed?

00:54:03.080 Here's some

00:54:03.900 more possibilities,

00:54:04.840 because it

00:54:05.700 might be a

00:54:06.080 whole bunch

00:54:06.460 of things

00:54:06.860 have changed.

00:54:07.320 One of the

00:54:08.140 things that

00:54:08.520 changed is,

00:54:09.740 like I said,

00:54:10.200 the loneliness

00:54:10.880 epidemic.

00:54:12.780 The loneliness

00:54:13.440 epidemic is

00:54:14.580 strong enough

00:54:15.360 and is highly

00:54:16.880 correlated with

00:54:17.860 longevity that

00:54:19.700 if you saw a

00:54:20.940 spike in

00:54:21.540 loneliness,

00:54:22.560 you should

00:54:24.400 see excess

00:54:25.660 mortality.

00:54:27.160 So, that

00:54:28.020 might be

00:54:28.520 some of it.

00:54:30.200 What about

00:54:31.040 the number

00:54:31.920 of people

00:54:32.340 who got

00:54:32.800 fatter?

00:54:34.060 Well, it

00:54:34.620 turns out that

00:54:35.220 most people

00:54:35.800 did not get

00:54:36.500 fatter after

00:54:38.340 the pandemic.

00:54:39.840 People got a

00:54:40.740 little fatter

00:54:41.180 during the

00:54:41.820 pandemic, but

00:54:43.200 when it was

00:54:43.660 over, there

00:54:45.240 was a lot of

00:54:45.740 return to the

00:54:46.380 baseline.

00:54:47.640 However,

00:54:48.600 according to

00:54:49.340 Grok, the

00:54:50.520 people who

00:54:51.100 were obese,

00:54:52.420 like really

00:54:52.920 obese, they

00:54:54.420 got fatter,

00:54:56.000 and they

00:54:56.720 have since

00:54:57.660 the pandemic.

00:54:58.360 Now, given

00:55:00.100 that we

00:55:00.440 know that

00:55:01.060 weight is

00:55:02.340 highly correlated

00:55:03.220 with medical

00:55:04.100 outcomes, is

00:55:05.440 it possible

00:55:05.980 that some,

00:55:07.600 not all of

00:55:08.560 it, but

00:55:09.420 some of the

00:55:10.480 excess mortality

00:55:11.400 is just people

00:55:12.480 got fatter?

00:55:14.640 Could it be

00:55:15.600 that people

00:55:16.480 got older?

00:55:18.100 Could it be

00:55:18.660 that they

00:55:19.080 take more

00:55:19.600 chances?

00:55:20.840 I don't

00:55:21.240 know, maybe

00:55:22.060 a little.

00:55:23.520 So, and

00:55:25.240 then I also

00:55:26.140 asked Grok if

00:55:27.440 people were

00:55:28.200 more sedentary

00:55:29.420 when they

00:55:30.600 work at

00:55:31.080 home, because

00:55:32.380 I thought it

00:55:32.960 could go

00:55:33.340 either way,

00:55:33.860 right?

00:55:34.840 And according

00:55:35.780 to Grok, there

00:55:36.720 is evidence

00:55:37.460 and data that

00:55:39.320 says that the

00:55:39.960 people who

00:55:40.480 used to go

00:55:41.060 into the

00:55:41.440 office, but

00:55:42.220 then after the

00:55:42.900 pandemic, fewer

00:55:44.300 people went

00:55:44.940 into the

00:55:45.280 office, that

00:55:46.580 the people who

00:55:47.220 work at home

00:55:48.080 take way less

00:55:49.560 steps.

00:55:50.060 and that

00:55:53.500 does not

00:55:54.320 surprise me.

00:55:56.320 So, if you

00:55:57.960 look at the

00:55:59.380 lack of

00:55:59.900 activity, that

00:56:01.440 should kill

00:56:01.980 people, the

00:56:02.840 excess weight, that

00:56:04.040 should kill

00:56:04.480 people, the

00:56:05.520 excess loneliness,

00:56:07.280 that should kill

00:56:08.380 people.

00:56:10.380 There's also the

00:56:11.820 thought that people

00:56:13.020 delayed medical

00:56:14.200 treatment, but I

00:56:16.280 don't think that

00:56:16.980 that would still

00:56:17.940 be affecting us

00:56:19.020 at the moment

00:56:20.300 because people

00:56:21.760 would have

00:56:22.100 caught up by

00:56:22.680 now, but I'm

00:56:23.780 going to throw

00:56:24.340 another idea

00:56:27.560 into the idea

00:56:29.040 bin.

00:56:30.860 What if

00:56:31.860 people stopped

00:56:33.680 believing doctors?

00:56:35.760 They might have

00:56:36.620 the same amount

00:56:37.360 of doctor visits,

00:56:39.520 but what if they

00:56:40.120 just stopped

00:56:40.760 taking their

00:56:41.400 advice?

00:56:43.940 So, sometimes

00:56:45.880 not taking their

00:56:46.940 advice might be

00:56:47.720 what saved your

00:56:48.480 life.

00:56:50.360 Sometimes, it

00:56:52.780 could be the

00:56:53.300 opposite, that

00:56:54.540 taking the

00:56:55.080 advice is what

00:56:55.740 killed you if

00:56:58.820 you don't take

00:56:59.340 the advice.

00:57:00.180 It could go

00:57:00.600 either way.

00:57:02.260 So, the

00:57:07.520 mystery remains.

00:57:09.520 It's definitely

00:57:10.200 a possibility that

00:57:11.440 it was the

00:57:12.080 vaccination, but

00:57:13.720 there are a lot

00:57:14.160 of possibilities.

00:57:16.940 Over in

00:57:17.800 Ukraine, as

00:57:19.340 you know, it's

00:57:19.860 become a drone

00:57:20.860 war, and

00:57:22.300 the war is

00:57:25.200 evolving fast,

00:57:26.360 they say, and

00:57:27.920 the drones are

00:57:28.820 so dominant on

00:57:30.120 the front lines,

00:57:31.180 both the Russian

00:57:32.080 drones and the

00:57:33.120 Ukraine drones,

00:57:34.720 that pretty much

00:57:35.980 everybody who

00:57:36.820 leaves their

00:57:37.320 foxhole gets

00:57:38.840 targeted by a

00:57:39.760 drone.

00:57:40.600 Almost everybody.

00:57:41.480 So, if you

00:57:43.940 venture into your

00:57:45.420 bunker, or

00:57:46.440 wherever it is

00:57:47.080 that you were

00:57:47.400 hiding, the

00:57:48.460 odds of being

00:57:49.000 killed by a

00:57:49.660 drone are, like,

00:57:51.340 really, really

00:57:52.260 high.

00:57:53.980 So, I'll say

00:57:55.220 again, we might

00:57:56.900 be three years

00:57:57.820 away from an

00:57:58.640 all-robot war,

00:58:00.720 because it won't

00:58:01.660 make any sense

00:58:02.780 to have any

00:58:04.320 humans there.

00:58:05.540 Now, apparently,

00:58:06.740 it's gotten so

00:58:07.840 bad that if

00:58:09.480 you're on the

00:58:10.140 front lines for

00:58:11.040 Ukraine, the

00:58:12.440 only way you

00:58:13.120 can get food,

00:58:15.200 and the only

00:58:15.880 way you can

00:58:16.420 remove the

00:58:17.140 wounded, is

00:58:18.220 with robots and

00:58:19.200 drones.

00:58:20.540 So, they can't

00:58:21.800 even resupply

00:58:22.900 themselves, because

00:58:24.260 if they leave

00:58:24.940 their bunker, they

00:58:26.060 get killed by a

00:58:26.960 Russian drone.

00:58:28.220 So, nobody can

00:58:29.220 even go outdoors,

00:58:31.200 anywhere near the

00:58:32.380 front line.

00:58:32.920 They can't even

00:58:34.360 go out in the

00:58:35.840 direction of their

00:58:36.700 own country.

00:58:39.320 Just going

00:58:40.200 outside is

00:58:41.600 basically a

00:58:42.340 death sentence.

00:58:43.740 So, I would

00:58:44.520 think that one

00:58:46.720 to three years,

00:58:47.800 probably three,

00:58:49.560 it will be just

00:58:50.300 robot on robot.

00:58:51.560 It wouldn't make

00:58:52.140 any sense to

00:58:53.500 have a human

00:58:54.020 being on the

00:58:54.600 front line.

00:58:57.140 That's what I

00:58:57.920 say.

00:58:59.240 All right, ladies

00:58:59.820 and gentlemen,

00:59:01.140 that's all I have

00:59:01.860 to say for today.

00:59:03.300 Keeping it

00:59:03.760 short.

00:59:05.200 And I'm going

00:59:06.220 to say some

00:59:06.700 words to the

00:59:08.740 local subscribers,

00:59:10.440 who I call

00:59:11.140 Beloved.

00:59:13.620 And that will

00:59:14.300 be private for

00:59:15.260 the subscribers.

00:59:16.260 The rest of you,

00:59:16.900 thanks for joining.

00:59:18.580 And I hope you

00:59:19.340 got something out

00:59:21.800 time, same
