Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2920 CWSA 08⧸07⧸25

00:00:00.000 Well, the good news is, if you have stocks, they're probably up.

00:00:05.880 It looks like an up day for stocks.

00:00:08.940 Yay.

00:00:10.320 Yay, everybody.

00:00:12.800 All right, let me get ready to see your comments.

00:00:17.420 And then it's go time.

00:00:23.220 Here we go.

00:00:26.180 Just like I planned.

00:00:27.660 And good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:44.920 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time.

00:00:49.480 But if you'd like to take a chance of elevating this experience up to levels that no one can

00:00:56.900 understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or a mug or

00:01:04.840 a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind,

00:01:10.320 fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:11.940 I like coffee.

00:01:13.320 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of dopamine at the end of the day, the thing

00:01:18.540 that makes everything better.

00:01:19.660 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:01:21.780 It happens now.

00:01:23.820 Good.

00:01:24.140 Good.

00:01:24.180 Good.

00:01:26.900 Oh, yeah.

00:01:29.980 That's the unparalleled pleasure right there.

00:01:34.660 I think you can feel it.

00:01:38.640 Best thing happened to you all day long so far.

00:01:42.120 All right.

00:01:42.400 Well, allegedly, exactly now, a new version of ChatGPT is being launched, GPT-5.

00:01:54.280 And would you like to be among the first to over-claim that they've achieved superintelligence?

00:02:03.160 Superintelligence.

00:02:05.820 I don't think it will have superintelligence.

00:02:08.640 I do think it will hallucinate just like prior models.

00:02:13.260 And I feel like it will be overhyped, but still awesome.

00:02:20.020 You know, I feel like it will still beat a bunch of benchmarks, which it is.

00:02:25.060 So, apparently, it now beats humans on a test that humans score on average 83%.

00:02:33.380 It does better than that.

00:02:35.560 So, it's better than humans, but we'll see.

00:02:40.960 For reasons that I was trying to completely ignore, apparently the WNBA, the women's basketball professional sport,

00:02:53.360 somebody threw a green dildo on the playing surface, which caused other people to do the same in subsequent games.

00:03:07.160 And now it's a big problem.

00:03:09.060 So, it turns out that if you give people that idea, and then you invite 15,000 people to sit in the same building,

00:03:19.780 at least one of them is going to say, you know what would be a great idea?

00:03:25.740 I've got an idea.

00:03:27.800 It's been done a lot of times, so it won't be original.

00:03:31.540 But I feel like I want to be the one who gets arrested for throwing the dildo during the game.

00:03:37.380 And then somebody does.

00:03:41.120 Apparently, there's no way to stop it from now to the end of time.

00:03:46.960 So, the good news is, it's one more reason to watch women's basketball.

00:03:56.320 And apparently, there's a betting market for the green dildo now to bet whether it appears or doesn't.

00:04:04.020 And there's more money being gambled on the dildo than on the WNBA game itself, according to the post-millennial. 1.00

00:04:14.220 To which I say, well, that makes sense.

00:04:18.240 But, I will tell you that women's basketball is way more entertaining than I thought. 0.96

00:04:24.800 And some of that is because men's basketball has become really kind of boring.

00:04:31.480 Three-poin shots.

00:04:32.720 Three-poin shots.

00:04:34.260 He's in the paint.

00:04:35.380 He got fouled every single time.

00:04:37.380 Sometimes they call it.

00:04:38.520 Sometimes they don't.

00:04:39.820 But he always complains.

00:04:41.520 It's just the same play over and over again.

00:04:44.980 But the women are a little more, I don't know, relaxed with their defense. 0.94

00:04:52.280 So, you just see more stuff happening.

00:04:56.680 Well, a high school kid has used AI to clone her mother's voice so that the AI can make phone calls to school to excuse her from classes.

00:05:10.880 Now, the weirdest part about that story is it's the first time I've heard it.

00:05:15.960 Don't you kind of assume that kids all over the country have already used AI, voice cloning, and they've cloned their parents' voices?

00:05:27.720 Don't you just sort of assume a lot of people have done that?

00:05:32.560 Could it be that what we're really finding out with this story is that one person got caught?

00:05:38.700 Because how would you catch them?

00:05:42.380 If you're in the school, you just get a phone call.

00:05:45.860 That's all you know.

00:05:47.460 You don't know anything else.

00:05:49.720 So, I don't know, maybe just one got caught.

00:05:54.520 Well, Google is going to spend a billion dollars on AI education and job training.

00:06:00.040 So, I would start with that whoever did the voice cloning.

00:06:05.380 They sound like they could be trained up.

00:06:08.060 Might be a good employee someday.

00:06:11.300 And so, that's happening.

00:06:14.000 Makes me wonder if the big corporations will have to get into the education business because the public schools are not creating anybody who could get a job, basically.

00:06:28.260 And they're certainly not going to know how to use AI.

00:06:31.680 So, could it be that the one and only way we'll ever take advantage of AI is if the AI companies use their vast wealth to run their own schools, basically.

00:06:46.280 Which they could use AI to do.

00:06:48.420 So, probably pretty efficient.

00:06:50.140 Well, there's a report per the Washington Times that says that DEI, diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, are vanishing as school board meetings.

00:07:05.100 And that's because of Trump trying to purge DEI.

00:07:09.640 But then they give the numbers.

00:07:11.200 It goes from the school board meetings, used to mention DEI 38% of the time, but now it's down to 33%.

00:07:21.200 To which I say, that's really not much of a difference.

00:07:25.740 For something that is pure racial discrimination and illegal at a federal level to only go down from 38% frequency down to 33%, to me, that's a lot more like you can't get rid of it no matter what you do.

00:07:45.760 So, I think that DEI will stay clawing to the sides of things to try to survive, and it will.

00:07:58.080 And eventually, they're going to wait out Trump.

00:08:03.280 You know, Trump doesn't last forever.

00:08:05.240 And I feel like unless you put a, well, unless you put people in jail for DEI, it will just revive itself, because the incentives for that are pretty high.

00:08:20.080 They'll get rewarded locally, but not federally.

00:08:26.700 Speaking of which, yeah, so, I don't know, is any of the DEI stuff literally illegal?

00:08:32.580 Or is it all civil kind of stuff?

00:08:36.720 It's not a criminal act, right?

00:08:38.880 It would be a civil violation.

00:08:42.280 I don't even know what I'm talking about.

00:08:44.200 But you couldn't put somebody in jail for pretending that they got rid of DEI at their public school, but secretly just, you know, changing what you call it.

00:08:56.360 I don't know.

00:08:57.840 Is that actually a criminal act or not?

00:09:01.880 I don't know.

00:09:03.020 It should be criminal.

00:09:04.180 In my opinion, that should be criminal.

00:09:07.160 But anyway.

00:09:11.580 A federal appeals court, according to the college fix, has upheld a Arkansas ban on critical race theory, the so-called CRT.

00:09:22.300 So critical race theory in the classroom tells people that white men mostly are the problem, and white men stole all your stuff and turned you into slaves.

00:09:35.860 So you should go to white men to get back all your stuff, and you should punish them for it, basically. 0.81

00:09:43.280 I'm summarizing it a little bit.

00:09:46.760 But the good news is that the federal appeals court agreed with Arkansas that they can just get rid of that racist nonsense.

00:09:55.100 Again, won't it just come back?

00:10:00.000 Seems like it'll just come back.

00:10:02.480 So, I don't know.

00:10:03.680 People got to go to jail.

00:10:04.800 Apple has now upped its investment plans for the U.S. up to $600 billion over what period of time?

00:10:15.780 I don't know.

00:10:16.580 So that makes it much less impressive if you realize it's over many years.

00:10:21.420 But there's stock that's going up, and I guess they've committed to building a factory in the U.S. where they make the glass for the iPhone.

00:10:32.680 And I don't know if you saw it, but there was a very cringey point where Tim Cook of Apple was trying to give Trump an award.

00:10:51.420 Which was a piece of glass that's a special kind of glass they were going to make in this new facility.

00:10:59.940 And it has a little gold stand.

00:11:02.620 And it was very, very unimpressive as a gift.

00:11:07.000 It was just a piece of glass as a stand.

00:11:10.100 And I get that it was cool glass, but it was a little bit more of an Apple Employee of the Month gift

00:11:19.140 than it was a gift for the President when you're announcing $600 billion of investments.

00:11:26.060 And then he had a little sort of awkward setting it up.

00:11:29.620 Anyway, it was sort of cringey.

00:11:32.200 But, so this actually happened.

00:11:36.920 So Trump is thanking Tim Cook, who has now done, you know, mostly what Trump wants,

00:11:42.780 which is bringing massive investment into the U.S.

00:11:46.740 And so he's happy with Tim Cook.

00:11:50.080 And at the end of the meeting, Trump says, in public, he says this,

00:11:56.040 I want to thank Tim Cook.

00:11:57.940 He's a great, great man.

00:11:59.420 A visionary.

00:12:00.360 A businessman.

00:12:01.020 Just about every quality he can have, other than athleticism.

00:12:06.160 I'm looking at him.

00:12:07.680 I'm not 100% sure.

00:12:12.980 Okay.

00:12:13.920 Is that the funniest thing that Trump has ever said?

00:12:17.840 I'm just going to read it again.

00:12:19.980 And I'll remind you, this is something he really said.

00:12:23.040 He actually said this in public about Tim Cook.

00:12:26.800 After Tim Cook had done everything he wanted.

00:12:29.260 I want to thank Tim Cook.

00:12:31.420 He's a great, great man.

00:12:32.600 A visionary.

00:12:33.180 A businessman.

00:12:33.960 Just about every quality he can have, other than athleticism.

00:12:37.760 I'm looking at him.

00:12:39.360 I'm not 100% sure.

00:12:45.140 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:12:46.600 That is literally the funniest thing he has ever said.

00:12:52.140 He's sort of an unintentional bully.

00:12:55.200 That it doesn't matter what somebody does.

00:12:57.000 If he can find your weak point, he's going to put his finger on it.

00:13:05.640 Elon Musk reminds us, if he didn't already know, there will be no code writing in the future.

00:13:13.600 You'll just say what you want.

00:13:15.980 And he gave an example.

00:13:17.640 Build me a fitness tracker with push notifications.

00:13:21.740 And it will just build it.

00:13:23.000 You won't have to know what language it used or anything.

00:13:27.260 And Elon says, syntax is dead.

00:13:32.540 Abstraction one.

00:13:33.600 Your job title is about to change from engineer to idea whisperer.

00:13:38.760 Now, I would agree that the engineering profession is going to take a hit because logic and all the things that engineers know.

00:13:52.300 It does feel like the kind of stuff that AI could do a lot of it.

00:13:56.740 And it does seem like the one place that AI doesn't know how to get better is in creativity.

00:14:04.900 So, the part that will have value is the part where you know what to tell it to make that would be valuable.

00:14:16.800 And that's it.

00:14:18.740 And AI really can't do that so well.

00:14:21.800 I mean, it could iterate, but it'd have to test it.

00:14:24.840 Whereas a human, if you got the right humans, there's some humans who can guess what kind of product people would want.

00:14:33.600 There's a friend of mine who years ago started a company for some auto parts, you know, little add-ons to your car.

00:14:41.340 And he had an ability to know what other car enthusiasts would want to buy.

00:14:48.920 Just this uncanny ability to say, you know, if we made this, I bet a lot of people would buy it.

00:14:56.460 You know, things that you and I maybe would never even would have thought of.

00:14:59.500 For example, how many of you have ever seen on a car that someone has upgraded the gas cap to a silver, cool-looking gas cap?

00:15:11.960 Have you ever seen that?

00:15:12.760 Usually on trucks.

00:15:14.360 That was my friend.

00:15:15.620 He invented that.

00:15:17.120 Nobody had ever done that before.

00:15:18.760 And he built a company and made that part and sold it.

00:15:22.180 And eventually he got knocked off by the Chinese. 1.00

00:15:24.780 So, there's lots of competition and he's out of that business.

00:15:27.940 But one after another, he simply said, hmm, you know what people would buy.

00:15:34.980 And then he made it in his own machine shop.

00:15:38.280 And then he sold it and he became quite rich.

00:15:41.580 So, yeah, I think knowing what to tell AI to do is where all the money will be.

00:15:47.900 And just there's some people who know how to do that in some notes.

00:15:54.380 All right.

00:15:55.180 So, I saw that apparently this story about the Republicans in Texas wanting to redistrict is getting deeper and more interesting than I thought.

00:16:11.220 So, it seems, and I mentioned this yesterday, that if the Democrats decide to retaliate, say, all right, we'll do California if you do Texas.

00:16:26.500 And then I guess the Republicans would say, oh, yeah, well, we'll do Florida.

00:16:30.820 And then they would do New York.

00:16:32.540 But apparently if you follow that through, you would find that Republicans would likely come out way ahead.

00:16:42.220 So, there's a possibility that if the Democrats decide to go, you know, toe-to-toe, and if you do this, we'll do it too, that they'll end up way behind.

00:16:53.160 And the worst thing they could do is to legitimize all this new redistricting by doing it themselves because they would just, apparently the numbers work out that they would lose seats in the end.

00:17:08.260 And the number of seats they lose could be a lot, could be as many as like 15, 15 seats in 2026.

00:17:20.160 But it gets worse because there's this thing called the, what is it called?

00:17:29.820 Some kind of voting act that's being decided on by the courts.

00:17:35.400 And the idea is that some of the districts were made based on a racial composition.

00:17:43.300 And I think the Supreme Court is going to say, hey, you can't do that.

00:17:47.660 You can't say, we'll make this a district because it's got all the Hispanics in it and they'll vote a certain way. 0.99

00:17:54.900 So, if that goes away, the advantage for the Republicans would double from what, you know, from 15 to, you know, something in the high 20s.

00:18:07.020 So, almost anything is possible with this story.

00:18:12.660 It could completely change the power of the United States forever or, you know, maybe some court will just stop it or maybe somebody did the math wrong.

00:18:25.600 That's the other possibility, that they haven't done the math right and we don't really know who comes out of the head.

00:18:31.240 Well, apparently, according to the New York Post, Ghislaine Maxwell says that she never saw Trump do anything concerning.

00:18:42.940 So, do not expect Ghislaine Maxwell to say anything bad about Trump.

00:18:48.440 And, oh, by the way, in a coincidental related story, she would like to be pardoned by Trump.

00:18:55.040 So, I'm not sure I would completely believe everything she says about Trump being innocent, although I think he probably is innocent of any of that stuff.

00:19:07.840 Because she's a little bit conflicted, she needs him to give her a pardon if he's so inclined.

00:19:16.700 All right, I've got a theme for some of the rest of today's podcast, and the theme is two movies on one screen.

00:19:25.660 And I'm going to give you a bunch of examples of news that we already talked about, where half of the country has a completely different view of what the movie is that they're watching.

00:19:41.620 And the question will be, is one of them always a hoax?

00:19:47.420 And is it always the one side who sees things accurately and the other side doesn't?

00:19:52.560 Because, you know, both sides believe they're the ones who see it accurate, and the other people are watching a fake movie.

00:20:00.580 Who is watching the real movie, and who is watching the hoax?

00:20:05.540 Well, we'll start with story number one about Russiagate.

00:20:13.040 The movie that I'm watching, which doesn't mean it's the real one, it's just the one I see.

00:20:19.560 I see stories like today's just the news, John Solomon.

00:20:25.740 And apparently we now have in writing and in video documented cases where Obama got ahead of the intelligence reports and said,

00:20:36.860 oh yeah, Putin is trying to help Trump get elected.

00:20:40.640 Now that was prior to there even being an intelligence decision.

00:20:49.040 So that would suggest that Obama was part of the plot to make it look like Trump was guilty of talking to Putin and colluding or whatever.

00:21:00.280 So in my world, the movie I'm watching, and most of you are watching too, we have proven beyond any real doubt that I have,

00:21:10.400 I don't have any doubt, that Russiagate and the Russia hoax was coordinated for the purpose of overthrowing the legally elected government.

00:21:20.280 And that the people involved were from the top, Brennan and Clapper and Obama and Comey and all those guys.

00:21:33.900 That's the movie I'm watching.

00:21:36.900 But can you believe you live in the same world where tens of millions, maybe more, maybe 100 million people are watching a different movie,

00:21:48.500 and you know what's happening in the other movie?

00:21:51.400 In the other movie, Putin helped Trump get elected.

00:21:56.220 And that's the whole story.

00:21:58.160 There's nothing else to see.

00:21:59.520 Isn't that amazing?

00:22:03.520 Isn't it amazing that those two versions of reality are just sitting there at the same time?

00:22:09.280 And we're not, instead of like really wrestling to find out which one's the true one,

00:22:14.680 we don't really have any mechanism to do that.

00:22:18.460 You know, one network will tell their version, the other network will tell their version,

00:22:22.860 and their audiences don't overlap that much.

00:22:25.620 So we just have two completely different versions.

00:22:30.180 And we're not talking about a detail.

00:22:33.540 We're talking about, did our government try to overthrow the elected president of the United States?

00:22:41.540 The answer is, looks like it.

00:22:45.340 If I were on a jury, I would say, yeah, there's a 100% chance.

00:22:50.620 There's no doubt about it.

00:22:51.960 The evidence is pretty clear.

00:22:53.100 All right.

00:22:56.980 So would you score that one?

00:23:01.260 Definitely you and I are seeing the right movie, and the other people are seeing the hoax.

00:23:06.920 Is that fair?

00:23:08.480 That there are two versions of the movies, but one of them is definitely just a hoax.

00:23:13.140 And the hoax is very well uncovered and revealed.

00:23:16.120 I think so.

00:23:17.340 Here's another one.

00:23:19.220 How about climate change?

00:23:21.680 Climate change.

00:23:24.060 So the movie I'm watching is that it might be true that the temperature is going up,

00:23:31.420 but we don't have a signal to tell us that it's an existential threat,

00:23:36.800 and it might be better than, it might be more good than bad, even if we don't even know.

00:23:40.820 So, but others would say, oh, it's proven.

00:23:46.060 Every scientist agrees it's going to be an existential threat.

00:23:50.080 Well, we have a news story.

00:23:54.400 I saw this from a post by David Chavos.

00:23:58.580 He's a PhD in molecular biology.

00:24:00.960 And he's talking about in 2024, so just last year, a climate scientist published a paper in the journal called Nature.

00:24:11.860 Now, that would be a prestigious, you know, high-end journal to put a paper in.

00:24:17.720 So if something's in that, you would think, oh, that's pretty, you know, credible.

00:24:23.880 Well, and then we find out that I think there were as many as four peer reviewers,

00:24:30.640 and all the peer reviewers had major problems with it.

00:24:33.560 So some said that the, basically, they criticized almost every part of it.

00:24:44.880 And what do you think happened when the paper that said that climate change was even worse than you thought?

00:24:52.420 Oh, boy, it's bad. It's bad.

00:24:54.700 And then the reviewer said, I don't know about this paper.

00:24:58.240 This is not meeting our standards.

00:25:00.860 What do you think happened?

00:25:01.680 And then it got published.

00:25:06.960 Why would they publish the paper when the whole point of peer review is if the peers are not convinced,

00:25:13.860 you shouldn't publish it?

00:25:15.300 But the peers were not convinced.

00:25:17.840 It got published anyway.

00:25:19.660 And then, because they happened to be in the right direction for the alarmists,

00:25:24.520 and they thought, aha, not only were we right,

00:25:28.160 it might be worse than we thought.

00:25:30.100 Because here's this paper.

00:25:31.680 And it's in nature.

00:25:32.840 It's published.

00:25:34.040 It had peer review.

00:25:35.900 So, must be true, right?

00:25:39.900 Well, it turns out it was one of the most cited papers for the entire year.

00:25:45.180 So, not only did it get published by itself, but it became a source for other scientists to base their work upon.

00:25:55.960 And then it just, like, became one of the biggest things in science when it never really even passed peer review.

00:26:04.820 And, you know, it's got many references to it from other science.

00:26:12.160 Now, so there's your two movies.

00:26:15.760 One is that the whole climate change thing is just a bunch of frauds and bad assumptions.

00:26:22.840 You know, maybe sometimes, some of them might be well-intended, but, you know, they got just dragged into the groupthink.

00:26:29.740 So, my view is that one movie is that it's just a bunch of bullshit and people scamming us for money.

00:26:38.360 And some people are just afraid of going against the established belief.

00:26:47.240 And then the other movie is that it's a big existential threat.

00:26:52.360 And although almost all of their predictions have been wrong, they're going to get one of these days, oh, the next time they're going to be right.

00:27:01.820 So, what's your vote?

00:27:05.800 Are they two reasonable views?

00:27:10.300 Is one of them clearly obviously true and the other one's a hoax?

00:27:17.320 Well, in my world, the one that says there's no way you can predict the temperature,

00:27:24.340 and there doesn't seem to be a way even to know what the temperature is, much less predict it.

00:27:30.520 I'm not even sure that we can measure it.

00:27:34.600 So, to me, it's super obvious that it's more a hoax than it is anything else.

00:27:42.260 But part of the world believes that the science has proven that they're all going to die from this climate change thing,

00:27:50.220 and the Republicans are part of the reason they're all going to die.

00:27:54.120 So, that's different.

00:27:56.540 All right.

00:27:56.820 All right.

00:28:00.520 And then, apparently, Trump had just learned while he was at some press event that the Ukrainian military is now enlisting citizens over the age of 60.

00:28:18.000 Now, they say citizens, so that would suggest men and women.

00:28:22.380 So, are they really going to enlist, like, 70-year-old women in the military because they're running out of young people?

00:28:32.140 That's what it looks like.

00:28:35.020 Hmm.

00:28:37.760 But I do wonder, you know, if they're looking for mostly drone operators and stuff.

00:28:43.520 I don't know.

00:28:44.680 Maybe if you're 70 and you played a lot of games.

00:28:49.840 Maybe.

00:28:51.240 But it doesn't look good for Zelensky.

00:28:56.660 Trump has slapped India with a 25% tariff on top of their 25% tariff for continuing to buy Russian oil.

00:29:07.700 Now, I don't know that India had any fast way to buy anybody else's oil.

00:29:15.000 Did they?

00:29:16.160 Did India have an option of just saying, oh, yeah, well, we'll stop tomorrow.

00:29:20.980 No more of this Russian oil and just buy it in other places?

00:29:25.400 Was that actually an option?

00:29:27.120 I don't know.

00:29:28.260 So, I don't know if there's enough oil or enough fungibility that you could just say, turn this spigot off and turn this one on.

00:29:36.680 Maybe.

00:29:37.800 You might be able to.

00:29:40.660 But that'll cause some friction with India.

00:29:46.900 However, that seems maybe it's not a coincidence that Putin has now seemingly agreed to meet with Trump.

00:29:59.760 Now, it would just be the two of them.

00:30:01.740 It wouldn't be Zelensky.

00:30:03.140 It wouldn't be Europe. 0.95

00:30:04.240 Trump's model is if he can come up with some model that the U.S. and Russia think is worth selling, then they can try to get Ukraine in there to agree with it, et cetera.

00:30:17.920 But they've got to see if they're close, first of all.

00:30:21.680 Now, do you believe they're close?

00:30:24.020 Because if nothing has changed, why would Putin be interested in peace talks?

00:30:32.860 Is Putin just playing a game where he's postponing sanctions?

00:30:37.460 So, he's going to do the Iranian thing where you keep talking like you want peace, but you keep acting like you don't, and just see how long you get away with it. 0.98

00:30:49.600 Because America loves the story that peace is about to break out.

00:30:54.700 So, oh, yeah, look at that Trump, he got us in peace.

00:30:57.420 So, we want to believe that Trump could make peace happen.

00:31:03.080 As long as we really want to believe that, Putin can just tap us down the highway forever.

00:31:10.000 Oh, yeah, almost there.

00:31:12.140 Oh, yeah, we're probably close.

00:31:14.960 I don't know, maybe just tweak a few more things and we'll be right there.

00:31:19.040 So, I don't believe anything about it, but it might not be coincidence that this new secondary tariff thing is kicking in.

00:31:29.260 That's what the India tariff is.

00:31:31.680 So, is it possible that Putin thinks that he might be heading down a one-way path to destroying his energy industry in his country?

00:31:43.980 Or, is Putin unworried because he could just sell twice as much to China and China has an insatiable demand for oil?

00:31:58.280 So, maybe, I don't know.

00:32:00.100 So, I don't think these secondary tariffs would have scared Putin so quickly that he would say,

00:32:07.820 Oh, never mind, never mind, I totally want peace now.

00:32:11.340 So, I'm going to predict that it does not lead to a real peace deal.

00:32:19.120 It might lead to a fake one where Trump comes back and says,

00:32:24.340 We've got a deal.

00:32:25.880 We've agreed on a ceasefire.

00:32:28.160 And then, you know, a day later you find out,

00:32:30.640 Well, it's a ceasefire if Ukraine gives us all this land and agrees that we own it.

00:32:38.520 And then, Ukraine will be, We didn't agree to that. 1.00

00:32:41.840 And then, Putin will be, Well, then, no ceasefire for you.

00:32:45.680 So, I feel like it's just tapping us down the road there.

00:32:50.360 We'll find out.

00:32:55.900 Hmm, what else?

00:32:57.040 So, another one of these two movies on one screen is the January 6th insurrection hoax.

00:33:09.460 Now, half of the country or more believes that Republicans left their guns home

00:33:18.160 and tried to take over the country by walking around in a public building for an afternoon.

00:33:28.380 And that that's how Republicans try to conquer a country.

00:33:32.460 Leave their guns home and then trespass in a public place for an afternoon.

00:33:37.300 And somehow, half of the idiots in the world came to believe that that's a real thing

00:33:44.440 and that there was an actual insurrection attempt.

00:33:48.640 As opposed to what I think you and I saw,

00:33:53.380 which is a bunch of people who were sure the election was being stolen right in front of them

00:33:59.140 because they could look at the weird pattern of the vote counting towards the end.

00:34:05.440 And they just wanted to delay long enough to find out if a coup had happened to them.

00:34:13.120 Now, how many times do I have to point this out before your head explodes?

00:34:18.080 The following thing.

00:34:21.260 As far as I know, no news program on the left or the right,

00:34:25.780 left or right, has ever pulled together a handful of the January 6th protesters

00:34:33.100 and said, all right, tell me the truth.

00:34:36.600 Did you believe that Trump had lost fair and square,

00:34:41.120 but you were trying to get him installed as like the president anyway,

00:34:45.340 which would have been a coup?

00:34:48.300 How many people would say, yeah, that's sort of what I wanted.

00:34:52.040 Yeah, I knew we lost.

00:34:53.340 But, you know, I thought we could get him in there anyway.

00:34:57.060 You won't find one.

00:34:58.860 In my opinion, how many people were there?

00:35:02.160 20,000 or some big number.

00:35:04.160 I don't think you'll find one person who would say, yeah, oh, yeah,

00:35:08.260 I know he lost fair and square, but we tried to get him in there anyway.

00:35:13.500 I'll bet not one.

00:35:15.520 It's just not what a Republican is.

00:35:19.160 It's just not who they are.

00:35:20.480 It's an identity thing.

00:35:22.560 It's not even an opinion thing.

00:35:24.740 Their identity is we like the Constitution, right?

00:35:29.920 So people don't go against their identity.

00:35:34.780 They can have different opinions that fit within their identity,

00:35:39.540 but you don't just throw away your identity.

00:35:42.620 If you're the pro-Constitution person, you don't throw that away.

00:35:47.500 So no.

00:35:49.220 So I'm going to target that as the last remaining tentpole hoax.

00:35:54.640 It's really the only thing that keeps people from supporting Trump at this point

00:35:58.420 because they kind of like his policies, even if they don't admit it.

00:36:02.500 But they really don't like that he may have been trying to take over the country.

00:36:09.340 It just never really happened.

00:36:15.020 Let's see.

00:36:15.760 What else has happened?

00:36:17.160 Remember Dr. Robert Malone?

00:36:19.500 He was one of the co-inventors of the mRNA platform.

00:36:26.920 And he says that RFK Jr. was briefed on UFOs

00:36:35.100 and was told that all of this stuff is true.

00:36:40.440 Now, do you believe that?

00:36:41.960 Because Malone would know RFK Jr.,

00:36:46.440 so he would know the people who are in that world

00:36:49.680 because he's in that world.

00:36:52.300 And here's what he said.

00:36:55.220 I saw this on a post by the Vigilant Fox,

00:36:59.040 which is a really good follow if you're on X.

00:37:02.160 Follow the Vigilant Fox.

00:37:04.880 A lot of good summaries in the news.

00:37:08.920 And Malone said, quote,

00:37:10.760 I'm talking to my friend and he says,

00:37:14.180 oh, Bobby had a briefing.

00:37:15.460 All this stuff is true.

00:37:17.680 Roswell, all those things.

00:37:19.620 The reverse engineering of night vision.

00:37:21.660 A whole bunch of this tech comes out of the reverse engineering

00:37:24.120 of recovered materials.

00:37:27.380 And we can look forward to learning a lot more

00:37:29.960 about what the heck is going on with these,

00:37:32.200 whether they're time travelers

00:37:34.200 and they're humans coming back 0.75

00:37:36.700 or they're from another dimension

00:37:38.220 or they're whatever, fill in the blank.

00:37:40.940 But apparently it's real.

00:37:43.420 All right.

00:37:44.260 I would like to add my opinion on this topic.

00:37:48.960 I'm quite certain

00:37:52.700 that there's nothing real,

00:37:56.080 meaning that there are no space aliens

00:37:58.280 or time travelers

00:37:59.480 or early humans

00:38:03.100 who are living in the core of the earth

00:38:04.940 or whatever.

00:38:06.860 I don't believe any of this is true.

00:38:09.040 Not any of it.

00:38:10.680 What I do believe

00:38:12.160 is that there are ongoing

00:38:14.700 ops being run against RFK Jr.

00:38:17.700 not by Malone,

00:38:19.860 not by Malone.

00:38:21.700 I'm not blaming him.

00:38:22.980 He seems like a good and smart egg.

00:38:29.280 But doesn't it seem to you

00:38:31.220 that if you were going to try

00:38:32.860 to discredit RFK Jr.

00:38:35.420 because you're a big pharma,

00:38:36.960 so let's say you're a big pharma

00:38:38.320 and you know that

00:38:39.640 the longer he's in the job,

00:38:42.540 the worse it is for you.

00:38:44.060 How would you discredit RFK Jr.?

00:38:47.860 Well, if it were me,

00:38:50.460 I would get him to believe something

00:38:52.500 that clearly is not true

00:38:54.360 and to go public with it.

00:38:57.740 If you could get him to do that,

00:39:00.440 then you could add that to the list of,

00:39:02.620 well, look at this guy.

00:39:04.380 He believes in magic.

00:39:06.640 Oh, he's so anti-science.

00:39:08.540 He's just decided that,

00:39:09.960 oh, time travelers.

00:39:11.420 He believes in time travelers now.

00:39:15.200 So to me,

00:39:16.540 I do believe that he may have been,

00:39:19.360 he may have been briefed

00:39:21.800 by somebody who said it was all real.

00:39:24.180 But whoever briefed him,

00:39:25.780 I would suspect,

00:39:27.920 would not be on his side

00:39:29.920 and was trying to hoax him

00:39:31.400 into ruining his credibility

00:39:33.640 so he'd have to leave the job.

00:39:35.820 So to me, it looks like an op.

00:39:37.060 Rasmussen did a poll

00:39:41.880 on 2020 election denial.

00:39:44.400 So this is 2020 election denial.

00:39:47.760 And 48% of Democrats support punishment

00:39:50.600 for questioning the 2020 election.

00:39:53.600 How could that be true?

00:39:56.000 Do you believe we live in a world

00:39:57.500 where 48%,

00:39:58.960 almost half,

00:40:00.700 of Democrats support punishment

00:40:04.620 for people who question

00:40:06.380 the 2020 election?

00:40:08.960 Can you even believe

00:40:10.240 that that's real?

00:40:11.780 Like, I would not even have thought

00:40:13.880 to ask the question

00:40:14.960 because it's so ridiculously,

00:40:17.220 absurdly out of bounds.

00:40:19.480 Punish people for questioning

00:40:21.500 an election.

00:40:23.920 But 48% of Democrats.

00:40:25.860 All right, this next story,

00:40:30.660 let's add this to the,

00:40:33.020 how in the world did I not know

00:40:34.520 this was the case already?

00:40:36.500 All right, if you haven't heard this story,

00:40:38.780 this might blow your mind a little bit.

00:40:42.000 You, if you're watching this podcast,

00:40:43.900 you probably believe

00:40:45.080 that Brennan and Clapper and Comey

00:40:49.620 were part of a major

00:40:51.500 Russia collusion hoax, right?

00:40:54.160 Did you know,

00:40:56.760 according to Tulsi Gabbard,

00:41:01.360 that James Clapper,

00:41:03.020 this wasn't his first hoax?

00:41:05.860 Apparently he was on the team

00:41:07.520 that said that Iraq had WMDs.

00:41:12.400 So the Iraq war

00:41:14.320 was in part caused by James Clapper

00:41:18.220 and his analysis

00:41:19.980 that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.

00:41:24.800 Do you think he knew

00:41:26.540 that that was fake

00:41:27.460 when he did it?

00:41:28.840 I mean, he wasn't the only one.

00:41:30.040 He was part of the team.

00:41:31.600 But how does this one guy

00:41:33.500 destroy our country

00:41:35.800 with a war that we didn't need to be in?

00:41:38.540 And then he's behind,

00:41:41.080 he's one of the key players

00:41:42.280 behind the Russia collusion hoax,

00:41:44.360 which ripped the country apart again.

00:41:46.400 Unbelievable

00:41:50.820 that he was involved

00:41:52.760 in two of our biggest,

00:41:54.440 most damaging hoaxes

00:41:56.540 in American history.

00:41:58.160 Same guy.

00:41:59.640 And how in the world

00:42:00.580 did I not know that

00:42:01.540 until yesterday?

00:42:03.700 What?

00:42:05.080 I would think

00:42:05.960 that would be right

00:42:06.700 at the top of things

00:42:07.660 that we should have all known.

00:42:09.240 Well,

00:42:10.260 this information

00:42:11.100 is coming from somebody

00:42:12.340 who told you

00:42:13.080 Iraq had weapons

00:42:14.320 of mass destruction.

00:42:15.700 I would have wanted

00:42:16.860 to know that.

00:42:18.580 I would have wanted

00:42:19.360 to know that.

00:42:23.580 Well,

00:42:24.220 General Flynn

00:42:25.180 tells us

00:42:28.940 that there might be

00:42:29.720 more to know

00:42:30.440 about October 7th

00:42:32.180 and the IDF,

00:42:34.600 the Israeli military's

00:42:35.960 suspicious inability

00:42:39.120 to detect it

00:42:41.240 or to repel it

00:42:42.680 as soon as it started.

00:42:44.940 And here's what

00:42:45.660 General Flynn says.

00:42:48.380 Something broke down

00:42:49.560 and it wasn't

00:42:50.260 because of mistakes.

00:42:51.860 It was an inside thing.

00:42:54.740 Now,

00:42:55.020 he was talking

00:42:55.600 to Steve Bannon

00:42:56.680 at the war room

00:42:57.500 and Bannon

00:42:59.940 had to stop him

00:43:00.920 and Bannon was like,

00:43:01.980 whoa,

00:43:02.120 whoa,

00:43:02.260 whoa,

00:43:02.440 whoa,

00:43:02.720 whoa,

00:43:03.000 whoa,

00:43:03.560 whoa,

00:43:04.080 whoa,

00:43:04.600 whoa,

00:43:05.000 whoa,

00:43:05.080 whoa,

00:43:06.040 whoa,

00:43:06.180 whoa,

00:43:07.300 whoa,

00:43:07.660 I may have missed

00:43:09.360 a few woes

00:43:10.100 but he said

00:43:10.520 whoa a lot.

00:43:11.720 Hang on.

00:43:12.820 He said you can't

00:43:13.580 drop a bomb like that.

00:43:15.260 You're saying

00:43:16.060 that you're hearing

00:43:17.800 there's testimony

00:43:19.620 or documents,

00:43:21.140 so Steve cleverly

00:43:22.460 is making sure

00:43:23.180 that there's some

00:43:23.900 real meat behind this,

00:43:25.780 or actual evidence

00:43:27.300 that certain elements

00:43:28.760 of the Israeli military

00:43:29.980 were told

00:43:30.680 to stand down

00:43:31.760 on October 7th.

00:43:35.980 And Flynn replied,

00:43:37.660 Steve,

00:43:39.120 I have personally

00:43:41.060 walked that border.

00:43:42.560 I've been down

00:43:43.340 at those areas

00:43:44.160 and I know the details

00:43:45.420 of how the Israelis,

00:43:47.040 one of the most secure

00:43:48.040 borders in the world,

00:43:49.360 how they do

00:43:50.020 their operations.

00:43:51.300 So I know that.

00:43:53.020 So something broke down

00:43:54.480 and it wasn't

00:43:55.320 because of mistakes.

00:43:59.400 Now,

00:44:00.100 I don't know

00:44:01.060 if he has more

00:44:01.900 specifics to it

00:44:03.140 or if he just knows

00:44:04.320 that the story

00:44:05.040 is wrong.

00:44:06.420 Could be either one.

00:44:07.660 You know,

00:44:07.980 it could be that

00:44:08.700 he knows enough,

00:44:09.800 more than we know

00:44:10.780 about the situation,

00:44:12.220 that he knows

00:44:13.260 it doesn't add up

00:44:14.280 but doesn't know

00:44:15.960 what's missing.

00:44:17.440 Right?

00:44:18.160 So,

00:44:19.320 but the other possibility

00:44:20.420 is he knows

00:44:21.500 what's missing.

00:44:24.640 Here's the problem

00:44:25.720 I'm having

00:44:26.380 with new conspiracy theories.

00:44:29.220 I guess that's an old one.

00:44:32.560 There were a lot

00:44:33.400 of conspiracy theories

00:44:34.620 that I

00:44:35.180 immediately discarded

00:44:37.500 because there's

00:44:38.860 just so many of them

00:44:39.760 you have to,

00:44:40.400 sometimes you just

00:44:41.160 have to discard them

00:44:42.160 without looking into them.

00:44:44.200 But now it's hard

00:44:45.260 to discard anything.

00:44:47.860 Like,

00:44:48.200 I'm not really

00:44:49.100 inclined

00:44:49.900 or biased

00:44:51.120 to believe

00:44:52.400 that Israel

00:44:53.280 allowed their

00:44:55.100 citizens

00:44:56.040 to be brutally

00:44:56.820 attacked

00:44:57.380 and kidnapped

00:44:58.760 and all that

00:44:59.580 because it was

00:45:00.320 some,

00:45:00.740 you know,

00:45:01.100 long-term plan

00:45:02.000 for gaining territory

00:45:03.160 or something.

00:45:04.580 I,

00:45:05.360 like,

00:45:07.080 there's nothing

00:45:07.540 in my body

00:45:08.580 or experience

00:45:09.540 or brain

00:45:10.500 that feels

00:45:12.900 that's true.

00:45:13.720 I know a lot

00:45:14.760 of you feel

00:45:15.300 there might

00:45:15.700 be something

00:45:16.100 to it

00:45:16.620 and I get that

00:45:17.640 and I'm not

00:45:18.760 ruling it out.

00:45:20.140 So what I'm saying

00:45:20.880 is even though

00:45:21.820 every fiber

00:45:23.380 of my being

00:45:24.340 says that's

00:45:25.240 not real,

00:45:26.800 there's no way

00:45:27.800 that they

00:45:28.180 intentionally

00:45:28.960 allowed that attack.

00:45:31.300 On the other hand,

00:45:33.640 the things

00:45:34.280 that I've seen

00:45:35.140 that are

00:45:36.360 apparently true

00:45:37.300 just in the last

00:45:39.080 six months,

00:45:40.300 especially the

00:45:41.320 Russia collusion

00:45:42.840 stuff,

00:45:43.720 it kind of

00:45:44.760 opens up

00:45:45.300 the door

00:45:45.740 that I

00:45:47.600 can't tell

00:45:48.340 what's real

00:45:48.920 and if I

00:45:50.360 don't have

00:45:50.740 any ability

00:45:51.680 to determine

00:45:52.340 what's real

00:45:52.960 and what isn't,

00:45:54.700 why should

00:45:55.400 my instincts

00:45:57.260 and hunches 0.99

00:45:59.440 about what

00:46:00.880 Israel would 1.00

00:46:01.700 or would not

00:46:02.220 do,

00:46:02.600 why would I

00:46:03.060 depend on

00:46:03.640 my own

00:46:04.200 opinion?

00:46:08.280 Yeah,

00:46:08.760 why would I

00:46:09.300 even believe it?

00:46:10.460 Now,

00:46:11.300 I see in the

00:46:12.180 comments,

00:46:12.680 of course,

00:46:13.720 people are

00:46:14.140 yelling

00:46:14.420 9-1-1,

00:46:15.360 9-1-1,

00:46:16.580 as in

00:46:17.280 don't believe

00:46:19.040 the story

00:46:19.760 about how

00:46:20.200 the Twin Towers

00:46:20.980 came down.

00:46:21.740 I will give

00:46:22.880 you this

00:46:23.560 much.

00:46:25.020 This is as

00:46:25.840 far as I'll

00:46:26.420 go.

00:46:27.560 I don't think

00:46:28.380 there's any

00:46:28.960 chance that

00:46:30.480 we know the

00:46:31.000 real story

00:46:31.740 of 9-11.

00:46:33.880 I don't think

00:46:34.760 any chance,

00:46:35.600 just none.

00:46:37.240 Now,

00:46:37.920 there are a

00:46:38.880 number of

00:46:39.260 possibilities

00:46:39.940 of what

00:46:41.560 really happened

00:46:42.540 compared to

00:46:43.400 what we're

00:46:43.920 told to

00:46:44.340 happen,

00:46:44.800 and I don't

00:46:45.480 know which

00:46:45.860 ones are

00:46:46.240 true,

00:46:47.800 but I'll

00:46:48.340 meet you

00:46:48.740 halfway.

00:46:50.040 The official

00:46:51.000 story,

00:46:51.660 I don't believe

00:46:52.340 that one.

00:46:54.400 Now,

00:46:54.820 it might be

00:46:55.580 that there's

00:46:56.100 nothing,

00:46:56.600 you know,

00:46:57.920 there's nothing

00:46:58.540 horrible there.

00:46:59.620 Maybe we just

00:47:00.280 got the story

00:47:01.000 wrong.

00:47:02.080 Maybe they're

00:47:02.660 just some

00:47:03.080 things that

00:47:03.780 we don't

00:47:04.080 know about,

00:47:05.140 but I can

00:47:05.920 tell you that

00:47:06.480 the official

00:47:07.100 story,

00:47:07.760 there's no

00:47:08.160 chance.

00:47:10.480 There's no

00:47:11.160 chance that's

00:47:11.780 all real.

00:47:13.960 Some of it

00:47:14.820 almost certainly

00:47:15.960 is real,

00:47:16.840 but not all

00:47:17.840 of it.

00:47:19.040 You know,

00:47:19.500 so,

00:47:20.340 I don't know.

00:48:23.820 another two

00:48:25.380 movies,

00:48:26.100 one screen,

00:48:27.980 this one is

00:48:30.160 the most

00:48:30.460 fascinating to

00:48:31.260 me,

00:48:31.540 and I know

00:48:31.880 you hate

00:48:32.180 this topic,

00:48:32.920 so I'll

00:48:33.120 make it short.

00:48:33.940 There's a

00:48:34.500 user on

00:48:36.560 X who

00:48:37.740 goes by

00:48:38.460 Cremu,

00:48:40.060 I don't know

00:48:41.620 how to

00:48:41.900 pronounce it,

00:48:42.580 C-R-E-M 1.00

00:48:43.940 as in

00:48:44.360 Mary,

00:48:45.340 I-E-U-X, 1.00

00:48:46.920 so you can

00:48:47.400 look him up.

00:48:47.960 And he is

00:48:49.720 real good

00:48:50.100 with data

00:48:50.760 and analysis.

00:48:53.420 And he

00:48:54.660 says this,

00:48:56.460 now this is

00:48:57.280 him,

00:48:58.060 don't get

00:48:58.560 mad at me,

00:48:59.840 do not

00:49:00.620 get mad at

00:49:01.300 me.

00:49:02.180 This is

00:49:02.640 somebody who

00:49:03.200 is smarter

00:49:03.660 than both

00:49:04.180 of us,

00:49:04.620 who says

00:49:05.660 the following,

00:49:07.280 more than

00:49:07.940 5.6

00:49:08.820 billion people

00:49:09.500 took the

00:49:10.040 COVID vaccines.

00:49:11.580 If there

00:49:12.220 was a mass

00:49:12.900 dying wave,

00:49:14.420 miscarriages

00:49:15.120 and stillbirths,

00:49:16.540 cardiac issues,

00:49:17.580 or anything

00:49:18.300 else,

00:49:18.940 we have

00:49:19.500 more than

00:49:19.940 enough data

00:49:20.520 to show

00:49:21.040 those things.

00:49:22.140 But they

00:49:22.660 never happened.

00:49:25.180 How are you

00:49:25.720 feeling so

00:49:26.220 far?

00:49:27.400 He goes,

00:49:28.160 they're not

00:49:28.460 real,

00:49:29.060 they're a

00:49:29.540 neurotic

00:49:30.020 delusion.

00:49:31.520 We have

00:49:32.180 so many

00:49:32.760 person years

00:49:33.620 of data

00:49:34.240 that if

00:49:35.060 there's

00:49:35.280 any issue

00:49:36.180 with the

00:49:37.060 vaccinations

00:49:37.960 causing

00:49:38.540 health problems,

00:49:39.280 we almost

00:49:39.900 certainly would

00:49:40.700 have already

00:49:41.160 detected it.

00:49:42.460 Couple this

00:49:43.160 with the

00:49:43.500 fact that

00:49:44.160 this is the

00:49:46.060 first time I've

00:49:46.700 seen this

00:49:47.140 word,

00:49:47.580 but

00:49:48.100 pharmacovigilance,

00:49:50.880 and I guess

00:49:51.320 that means

00:49:51.960 the actively

00:49:53.940 watching the

00:49:55.500 pharma side

00:49:57.380 effects,

00:49:58.340 the fact that

00:49:59.220 pharmacovigilance

00:50:00.860 has gotten

00:50:01.540 much better

00:50:02.020 over time,

00:50:03.020 and big

00:50:03.560 side effects

00:50:04.220 are just a

00:50:05.060 laughable

00:50:05.660 proposition.

00:50:07.640 So a

00:50:08.600 laughable

00:50:09.120 proposition

00:50:09.780 because the

00:50:11.400 system is

00:50:12.420 such that

00:50:13.480 there's a

00:50:13.880 100% chance

00:50:14.900 who would

00:50:15.180 see any

00:50:15.580 big effect

00:50:16.340 to people

00:50:17.580 dying.

00:50:19.600 Now,

00:50:20.520 some of

00:50:21.020 you would

00:50:21.380 say,

00:50:21.900 but Scott,

00:50:22.860 look at the

00:50:23.840 data from

00:50:24.620 a user

00:50:25.120 called

00:50:25.540 Ethical

00:50:26.160 Skeptic.

00:50:26.740 Skeptic.

00:50:27.360 How many

00:50:27.800 of you

00:50:28.200 have seen

00:50:28.860 the data

00:50:29.980 from Ethical

00:50:30.920 Skeptic,

00:50:31.980 who appears

00:50:32.920 to show

00:50:33.580 charts and

00:50:34.460 data that

00:50:35.640 would suggest

00:50:36.240 there's a

00:50:36.780 gigantic

00:50:37.340 problem of

00:50:39.660 people dying

00:50:40.400 who got

00:50:41.200 vaccinated?

00:50:41.800 how many

00:50:43.380 of you have

00:50:43.680 seen it?

00:50:44.080 Because he's

00:50:44.660 been operating

00:50:45.180 since the

00:50:45.820 pandemic,

00:50:46.920 and he's

00:50:47.260 just got

00:50:47.620 tons of

00:50:48.280 charts and

00:50:49.080 data,

00:50:49.520 and all

00:50:49.860 points in

00:50:50.500 the same

00:50:50.780 direction,

00:50:51.660 that there's

00:50:52.120 this enormous

00:50:53.080 problem of

00:50:55.120 side effects

00:50:55.680 and people

00:50:56.120 dying and

00:50:57.080 every other

00:50:58.200 thing.

00:50:59.880 Well,

00:51:01.140 Cremieux was

00:51:01.820 asked about

00:51:02.500 Ethical

00:51:03.120 Skeptic,

00:51:03.960 and he

00:51:06.000 debunked him

00:51:06.820 as being a

00:51:07.620 credible source

00:51:08.400 of anything.

00:51:08.860 I had the

00:51:11.720 same reaction,

00:51:14.580 but without

00:51:15.360 the backup.

00:51:18.680 All I knew

00:51:19.500 is that

00:51:19.840 whenever

00:51:20.960 Ethical

00:51:21.660 Skeptic

00:51:22.240 posted

00:51:24.620 something,

00:51:25.340 I couldn't

00:51:26.140 understand it.

00:51:27.720 And I

00:51:27.960 thought to

00:51:28.260 myself,

00:51:29.220 what are

00:51:29.600 the odds

00:51:30.100 that 100%

00:51:31.340 of the time

00:51:31.960 he posts

00:51:32.780 something,

00:51:33.220 I don't

00:51:33.560 understand it?

00:51:34.960 What are

00:51:35.260 the odds

00:51:35.620 that that's

00:51:36.000 somebody who

00:51:36.500 knows what

00:51:36.920 he's talking

00:51:37.380 about?

00:51:37.740 My

00:51:38.860 experience

00:51:39.540 is anybody

00:51:40.840 who can't

00:51:41.400 simplify their

00:51:42.220 point and

00:51:42.900 say,

00:51:43.300 here's the

00:51:43.860 point,

00:51:44.660 here's the

00:51:45.320 data that

00:51:45.680 proves it.

00:51:46.780 They're

00:51:47.240 probably not

00:51:48.840 credible.

00:51:50.040 So I

00:51:50.480 think he's

00:51:50.940 not credible,

00:51:51.840 even if

00:51:52.780 everything he

00:51:53.340 says is

00:51:53.720 real.

00:51:54.500 I wouldn't

00:51:54.940 know.

00:51:56.880 So,

00:51:57.920 now you've

00:51:58.620 got two

00:51:59.300 people who

00:52:00.060 are really,

00:52:00.900 really,

00:52:01.160 really looking

00:52:01.960 at the

00:52:02.380 data,

00:52:03.280 and they

00:52:03.680 see two

00:52:04.360 completely

00:52:04.920 different

00:52:05.520 worlds.

00:52:06.280 which one

00:52:07.620 do you

00:52:07.940 see?

00:52:09.160 Do you

00:52:09.480 see a

00:52:09.840 world,

00:52:10.420 I think

00:52:10.780 most of

00:52:11.220 you see

00:52:11.520 a world

00:52:11.920 where it's

00:52:12.520 been proven

00:52:13.240 beyond a

00:52:14.480 doubt that

00:52:15.560 there's way

00:52:16.220 more deaths

00:52:17.060 attributed to

00:52:17.960 people who

00:52:18.340 got vaccinated,

00:52:19.280 it's obvious

00:52:19.900 it's because

00:52:20.560 of the

00:52:20.800 vaccination.

00:52:21.840 How many

00:52:22.200 of you

00:52:22.460 live in

00:52:23.140 that version

00:52:24.840 of reality

00:52:25.580 where it's

00:52:29.020 just obvious

00:52:29.640 and you've

00:52:30.420 seen so

00:52:30.980 much data

00:52:31.520 to prove

00:52:32.040 it?

00:52:32.480 You know

00:52:33.000 people who

00:52:33.520 have been

00:52:33.800 injured by

00:52:34.300 the

00:52:34.460 vaccination

00:52:35.080 so you've

00:52:37.020 proven it

00:52:37.520 with your

00:52:37.880 experience,

00:52:38.720 you've

00:52:38.920 proven it

00:52:39.520 with all

00:52:40.060 the data.

00:52:41.440 How many

00:52:41.840 of you think

00:52:42.260 you're in

00:52:42.580 that world?

00:52:44.200 I'm not

00:52:44.940 in that

00:52:45.220 world,

00:52:46.080 which doesn't

00:52:47.600 mean you're

00:52:48.020 wrong,

00:52:49.120 which doesn't

00:52:49.860 mean you're

00:52:50.320 wrong.

00:52:50.980 I just

00:52:51.820 don't know

00:52:52.360 anybody who

00:52:52.880 was injured

00:52:53.300 by the

00:52:53.680 vax,

00:52:54.720 and I've

00:52:56.820 only seen

00:52:57.460 data that

00:52:58.240 says that

00:52:58.860 it worked

00:52:59.640 and it

00:52:59.940 saved lives.

00:53:01.220 I haven't

00:53:01.980 seen any

00:53:02.420 of the other

00:53:02.700 stuff.

00:53:03.560 Where are

00:53:04.060 you even

00:53:04.420 looking?

00:53:05.080 And if

00:53:05.980 you saw

00:53:06.480 data that

00:53:07.960 said the

00:53:08.340 opposite,

00:53:10.300 and you

00:53:11.780 believed it,

00:53:13.060 then I

00:53:13.460 would call

00:53:13.860 you gullible.

00:53:15.260 Not because

00:53:16.320 you believe

00:53:16.880 the wrong

00:53:17.500 stuff,

00:53:18.580 but because

00:53:19.400 you're believing

00:53:20.000 in experts

00:53:20.880 in a domain

00:53:21.840 in which all

00:53:22.400 the data is

00:53:23.020 questionable.

00:53:24.420 So I

00:53:25.120 don't believe

00:53:25.860 the people

00:53:26.300 who say

00:53:26.660 there's no

00:53:27.360 damage

00:53:27.800 whatsoever,

00:53:28.880 but I

00:53:30.080 also don't

00:53:30.940 believe the

00:53:32.000 people who

00:53:32.420 say,

00:53:32.720 oh,

00:53:32.840 there's

00:53:33.020 plenty of

00:53:33.520 damage,

00:53:33.940 here's my

00:53:34.300 data.

00:53:36.040 So if

00:53:37.700 you decided

00:53:38.820 that one

00:53:40.700 part of

00:53:41.200 these people

00:53:41.880 are right

00:53:42.500 and they've

00:53:43.480 got data

00:53:44.100 and studies

00:53:44.800 to prove

00:53:45.320 it,

00:53:45.980 then I

00:53:46.960 would call

00:53:47.340 you gullible

00:53:48.000 because why

00:53:49.180 would you

00:53:49.500 believe anybody

00:53:50.340 in this

00:53:51.700 domain?

00:53:52.800 You know

00:53:53.280 that whatever

00:53:55.040 is true,

00:53:57.440 you know

00:53:58.000 for sure that

00:53:58.760 people are

00:53:59.160 making stuff

00:53:59.780 up in both

00:54:00.380 directions,

00:54:01.020 right?

00:54:01.240 so even

00:54:02.760 if we

00:54:03.220 somehow

00:54:03.620 could find

00:54:04.160 out what

00:54:04.580 was real

00:54:05.240 and I

00:54:05.900 don't know

00:54:06.160 that we

00:54:06.500 ever will,

00:54:07.920 we would

00:54:08.660 still know

00:54:09.140 that there

00:54:09.460 are people

00:54:09.780 on both

00:54:10.160 sides who

00:54:10.600 just made

00:54:11.080 shit up.

00:54:12.760 That part

00:54:13.840 I'm sure

00:54:14.460 about.

00:54:16.400 So before

00:54:17.860 you say

00:54:18.520 Scott,

00:54:19.380 why are you

00:54:20.060 so gullible

00:54:20.780 that you

00:54:21.320 believe the

00:54:22.040 official word?

00:54:23.820 I've never

00:54:24.260 said that.

00:54:25.020 I've never

00:54:25.440 believed the

00:54:25.920 official word.

00:54:27.140 But I have a

00:54:28.160 question for

00:54:28.760 you.

00:54:29.320 Why do you

00:54:30.100 believe the

00:54:30.580 unofficial

00:54:31.060 scientists?

00:54:32.140 what makes

00:54:33.920 them credible?

00:54:36.320 Nothing.

00:54:37.420 Nothing.

00:54:38.120 So I'm way

00:54:39.160 more suspicious

00:54:39.980 than you are.

00:54:41.900 I believe

00:54:42.780 that it's

00:54:43.240 unknowable

00:54:43.880 and I

00:54:45.280 wouldn't look

00:54:45.700 at the data

00:54:46.240 or the experts

00:54:46.980 to tell me

00:54:47.560 it was true.

00:54:48.760 I will tell

00:54:49.700 you that

00:54:52.760 none of us

00:54:56.500 credible

00:54:56.900 look into

00:54:57.320 me in

00:54:59.500 either

00:55:00.060 direction.

00:55:01.820 All right.

00:55:02.140 what about

00:55:04.260 inflation?

00:55:05.380 The president

00:55:05.940 said that the

00:55:06.620 price of

00:55:07.020 everything is

00:55:07.860 down.

00:55:09.500 Eggs are

00:55:10.220 down.

00:55:11.340 Gas prices

00:55:12.040 are down.

00:55:14.340 Beef prices

00:55:15.400 are through

00:55:16.020 the roof,

00:55:16.580 right?

00:55:17.660 So Trump,

00:55:19.680 of course,

00:55:20.080 does a great

00:55:20.860 job of

00:55:21.400 selling and

00:55:22.580 convincing us

00:55:23.480 that everything's

00:55:24.060 going to be

00:55:24.460 fine, which

00:55:25.080 is important.

00:55:26.440 I like it

00:55:27.280 when he does

00:55:27.720 that.

00:55:28.280 But no,

00:55:28.880 it is not

00:55:29.480 true that

00:55:30.320 everything is

00:55:31.020 down.

00:55:31.340 there are

00:55:32.220 some things

00:55:32.740 that are

00:55:32.940 way up.

00:55:35.540 Here's a

00:55:36.160 new phrase

00:55:36.860 that Jake

00:55:37.360 Tapper has

00:55:37.940 added to

00:55:38.400 the conversation.

00:55:40.720 Apparently,

00:55:41.380 he's acknowledging

00:55:42.520 that the

00:55:43.260 government was

00:55:44.300 weaponizing the

00:55:46.360 Department of

00:55:46.960 Justice against

00:55:47.840 Trump.

00:55:48.260 Trump.

00:55:49.080 So I believe

00:55:50.060 that even Jake

00:55:50.800 Tapper would

00:55:51.380 agree, yeah,

00:55:52.520 there was some

00:55:53.180 weaponization going

00:55:54.220 there.

00:55:55.080 But he believes

00:55:56.440 that Trump has

00:55:57.960 taken that to a

00:55:58.800 new level,

00:55:59.580 which he calls

00:56:00.240 turbocharging the

00:56:02.080 weaponization of

00:56:03.000 government.

00:56:04.360 So yeah,

00:56:05.140 sure, maybe the

00:56:06.540 Democrats did 0.64

00:56:07.560 weaponize the

00:56:08.800 government against

00:56:10.060 conservatives and

00:56:11.460 against Trump.

00:56:12.520 Yeah, maybe they

00:56:13.160 did weaponize it a

00:56:14.040 little bit.

00:56:14.420 But they

00:56:15.440 didn't turbo

00:56:16.180 weaponize it.

00:56:17.820 I mean, Trump

00:56:19.440 is turbocharging

00:56:20.540 that weaponization.

00:56:22.060 So that's much

00:56:22.760 worse.

00:56:23.600 So here's what

00:56:24.340 you should look

00:56:24.940 for.

00:56:26.000 See if

00:56:26.540 turbocharged

00:56:27.740 weaponization

00:56:28.720 becomes the

00:56:30.260 thing they all

00:56:30.920 say.

00:56:31.280 If you don't

00:56:32.840 hear anyone

00:56:33.440 else use it,

00:56:34.420 then it was

00:56:34.760 just something

00:56:35.240 that came to

00:56:36.780 Jake's mind.

00:56:38.880 But if they

00:56:39.660 all start saying,

00:56:41.220 well, there was

00:56:41.880 a little

00:56:42.240 weaponization

00:56:42.980 before, but

00:56:44.540 not turbocharged,

00:56:46.240 then you'll know

00:56:47.420 that some

00:56:47.780 consultant came

00:56:48.800 up with that.

00:56:49.780 And they're

00:56:50.120 all going to

00:56:50.920 use it.

00:56:53.680 All right.

00:56:55.500 Project

00:56:56.020 Veritas has a

00:56:59.380 whistleblower.

00:57:00.100 I don't know

00:57:00.880 if I believe

00:57:01.760 in this one

00:57:02.360 or not.

00:57:06.240 This says

00:57:07.120 that former

00:57:08.040 U.S.

00:57:08.840 Attorney General

00:57:09.760 Bill Barr

00:57:10.400 and some

00:57:11.540 other partner

00:57:12.140 he's working

00:57:12.700 with are

00:57:13.640 running some

00:57:14.200 kind of fraud

00:57:14.940 scheme to

00:57:16.540 get elites

00:57:17.360 and billionaires

00:57:18.060 visas to the

00:57:19.060 U.S.

00:57:19.840 It involves

00:57:21.140 fake companies

00:57:23.260 that they

00:57:24.980 can say

00:57:25.600 they're working

00:57:26.960 for the fake

00:57:27.540 companies so

00:57:28.600 that they can

00:57:29.080 get their

00:57:29.820 fake visas.

00:57:32.500 Now,

00:57:32.780 Project Veritas,

00:57:34.180 James O'Keefe

00:57:35.960 was the

00:57:36.420 founder of

00:57:36.940 that, but

00:57:37.280 then they

00:57:38.020 forced him

00:57:39.020 out.

00:57:39.340 Now he does

00:57:39.760 his own

00:57:40.060 thing at

00:57:40.580 OMG.

00:57:42.940 But I

00:57:45.100 don't know

00:57:45.540 about this

00:57:46.020 one.

00:57:47.340 Do you

00:57:47.820 believe that

00:57:48.520 the whistleblower

00:57:49.400 is telling the

00:57:50.120 truth and

00:57:51.340 that Bill

00:57:52.460 Barr is

00:57:53.560 just running

00:57:54.220 this big

00:57:55.520 overt visa

00:57:56.700 scam?

00:57:58.640 I'm going

00:57:59.320 to say

00:57:59.940 I'm going

00:58:01.560 to say I'm

00:58:02.080 a little bit

00:58:02.560 skeptical of

00:58:03.460 this one.

00:58:04.280 I'd have to

00:58:04.960 know a lot

00:58:05.400 more about

00:58:05.860 this alleged

00:58:06.440 whistleblower

00:58:07.160 or there'd

00:58:08.900 have to be

00:58:09.300 some other

00:58:09.800 evidence.

00:58:10.720 I guess I

00:58:11.260 would say

00:58:11.700 I wouldn't

00:58:12.820 believe it

00:58:13.300 based on the

00:58:13.960 whistleblower.

00:58:14.600 I would

00:58:16.660 believe it

00:58:17.380 I could

00:58:18.360 believe it

00:58:18.980 if there's

00:58:20.480 some investigation

00:58:21.240 or some

00:58:21.900 other independent

00:58:22.920 report.

00:58:24.800 But with

00:58:25.680 one whistleblower

00:58:26.700 no, not

00:58:28.380 good enough.

00:58:30.200 Well, Trump

00:58:31.180 wants to

00:58:32.360 sign an

00:58:32.800 executive order

00:58:33.580 to allow you

00:58:34.300 to hold

00:58:34.700 Bitcoin in

00:58:35.700 your 401k

00:58:36.700 as well as

00:58:37.980 buildings and

00:58:38.840 real estate

00:58:39.540 and other

00:58:40.900 private deals.

00:58:42.900 So, in case

00:58:44.080 you want to

00:58:44.460 do that.

00:58:51.400 All right.

00:58:52.920 Now, that

00:58:53.280 might juice

00:58:54.300 the economy

00:58:54.880 a little bit

00:58:55.380 because it

00:58:55.760 would open

00:58:56.140 up around

00:58:56.620 $12.5 trillion

00:58:57.860 for non-stock

00:59:02.300 investments.

00:59:05.720 Trump says

00:59:06.900 that the

00:59:07.380 Biden-Harris

00:59:08.400 administration

00:59:09.080 pushed banks

00:59:10.840 to, quote,

00:59:12.120 destroy him

00:59:13.080 and to

00:59:13.580 debank

00:59:13.920 conservatives.

00:59:15.440 Now, I

00:59:16.860 didn't know

00:59:17.300 about that.

00:59:18.060 I didn't

00:59:18.500 realize that

00:59:19.300 Trump was

00:59:20.480 being

00:59:22.920 debanked.

00:59:26.680 I know

00:59:27.500 that they've

00:59:27.920 been debunked,

00:59:28.720 but he's

00:59:29.040 been debanked.

00:59:30.960 And

00:59:31.260 so, I'm

00:59:34.540 completely in

00:59:35.380 favor of

00:59:35.840 Trump getting

00:59:36.340 revenge for

00:59:38.200 the debanking

00:59:38.920 stuff.

00:59:39.360 but even

00:59:40.900 if it's

00:59:41.360 a turbo

00:59:42.040 charged

00:59:42.540 lawfare.

00:59:44.900 Yeah, he

00:59:45.880 needs to

00:59:46.980 set things

00:59:48.620 right.

00:59:49.740 People should

00:59:50.660 understand that

00:59:51.600 if they

00:59:51.980 debank an

00:59:53.080 ex-president

00:59:53.960 and that

00:59:55.200 ex-president or

00:59:56.360 any of his

00:59:57.120 allies or

00:59:57.960 children in

00:59:58.620 the future

00:59:59.060 get a shot

01:00:00.440 to take you

01:00:01.100 down, they're

01:00:02.280 going to do

01:00:02.680 it.

01:00:03.540 They're going

01:00:04.180 to do it.

01:00:05.180 That's the

01:00:05.660 kind of

01:00:06.100 mutually

01:00:07.020 assured

01:00:07.540 destruction

01:00:08.160 that keeps

01:00:08.940 society running.

01:00:10.900 So, I do

01:00:11.680 think Trump

01:00:12.240 needs to

01:00:12.700 absolutely

01:00:13.160 just savage

01:00:14.100 the banking

01:00:15.800 industry that

01:00:17.240 tried to

01:00:18.780 debank him.

01:00:19.980 Absolutely

01:00:20.520 savage them.

01:00:21.680 It should be

01:00:22.340 really expensive

01:00:23.380 and they

01:00:24.860 should remember

01:00:25.560 forever that

01:00:26.920 when they got

01:00:27.560 political, even

01:00:28.960 though they

01:00:29.300 kind of had

01:00:29.820 to because

01:00:30.500 the government

01:00:32.020 at the time

01:00:32.700 was kind of

01:00:33.700 pushing them

01:00:34.140 into it,

01:00:34.620 but they

01:00:35.220 need to

01:00:35.620 know that

01:00:36.060 they're

01:00:36.360 looking at

01:00:37.120 an existential

01:00:37.980 threat if

01:00:40.280 they debank

01:00:40.940 somebody for

01:00:41.580 political reasons,

01:00:42.900 even if they're

01:00:43.440 being pushed

01:00:43.960 to do it.

01:00:44.960 It has to

01:00:45.320 be an

01:00:45.600 existential

01:00:46.000 threat to

01:00:46.780 them.

01:00:48.300 So, if

01:00:49.440 Trump put a

01:00:50.460 major bank

01:00:51.720 out of business

01:00:52.340 because of

01:00:53.020 it, so

01:00:54.360 long as we

01:00:54.960 didn't lose

01:00:55.420 our entire

01:00:55.920 banking

01:00:56.360 industry,

01:00:56.980 I'd be okay

01:00:57.420 with that.

01:00:58.460 This is so

01:00:59.260 bad that

01:01:01.020 just destroying

01:01:01.960 an entire

01:01:02.520 bank is

01:01:04.620 would be

01:01:05.220 about the

01:01:05.600 right price

01:01:06.080 to pay.

01:01:06.940 That would

01:01:07.140 be about

01:01:07.400 the right

01:01:07.680 price.

01:01:11.300 I guess

01:01:12.000 ICE is

01:01:12.840 doing raids

01:01:14.560 on Home

01:01:15.400 Depot

01:01:15.740 because there's

01:01:17.500 a bunch of

01:01:17.860 people trying

01:01:18.660 to work.

01:01:19.900 Now,

01:01:20.900 how many of

01:01:22.440 you have a

01:01:22.980 problem with

01:01:23.600 the fact that

01:01:24.820 the Trump

01:01:25.300 administration

01:01:26.040 apparently lied

01:01:27.240 to us

01:01:27.840 about the

01:01:29.540 worst first

01:01:30.440 because they're

01:01:31.640 not looking

01:01:32.160 for the

01:01:32.560 worst standing

01:01:34.000 at the

01:01:34.760 Home Depot

01:01:36.060 parking lot.

01:01:38.220 They're very

01:01:39.080 clearly trying

01:01:40.100 to hit their

01:01:40.580 numbers, which

01:01:41.400 you might like,

01:01:42.520 but it's not

01:01:43.560 what they told

01:01:44.140 us.

01:01:45.780 Even if you

01:01:47.360 love what

01:01:47.980 they're doing,

01:01:49.520 how do you

01:01:51.160 rationalize the

01:01:52.180 fact that they

01:01:52.720 lied to you

01:01:53.540 and said that

01:01:54.700 they wouldn't

01:01:55.100 do that?

01:01:55.560 even if you

01:01:57.000 like it

01:01:57.440 since they're

01:01:57.780 doing it.

01:01:58.980 So, I've

01:01:59.900 got a problem.

01:02:01.300 I would call

01:02:02.020 them liars

01:02:04.600 and I don't

01:02:06.420 like it a bit.

01:02:11.220 Bank more

01:02:11.960 encores when

01:02:12.780 you switch to

01:02:21.280 Scotiabank.

01:02:21.920 You're richer

01:02:22.380 than you think.

01:02:24.600 All right.

01:02:25.560 I guess

01:02:27.580 Trump is

01:02:28.280 calling for

01:02:29.120 the resignation

01:02:29.840 of Intel's

01:02:31.200 CEO because

01:02:32.880 he has

01:02:33.640 extensive ties

01:02:34.840 to China,

01:02:36.000 which, you

01:02:37.580 know, everybody

01:02:38.060 assumes means

01:02:38.980 to their

01:02:39.440 government as

01:02:40.100 well.

01:02:40.700 So, I guess

01:02:41.480 the CEO of

01:02:42.600 Intel has

01:02:44.900 some investment

01:02:45.820 platform that

01:02:47.700 made a whole

01:02:48.320 bunch of

01:02:48.700 Chinese investments.

01:02:50.680 So, I don't

01:02:51.780 think there's

01:02:52.440 quite a

01:02:53.080 smoking gun

01:02:54.020 that says

01:02:54.940 that he

01:02:55.340 saw anything

01:02:55.820 wrong.

01:02:56.940 We don't

01:02:57.620 have that.

01:02:58.680 But his

01:02:59.540 connections and

01:03:00.740 his past

01:03:01.340 activities make

01:03:03.460 him look really

01:03:04.320 cozy with

01:03:05.560 China.

01:03:06.520 So, I can

01:03:07.500 see why Trump's

01:03:08.720 pushing him on

01:03:09.540 that.

01:03:09.760 Trump is

01:03:13.140 ordering a

01:03:13.880 new census,

01:03:15.280 which I don't

01:03:16.740 understand at

01:03:17.560 all because he

01:03:18.200 doesn't have the

01:03:18.860 power to order a

01:03:19.760 new census.

01:03:21.160 So, there's

01:03:21.980 something about

01:03:22.500 the story that I

01:03:23.340 need to find

01:03:23.880 out.

01:03:24.160 I guess

01:03:25.040 Congress could

01:03:26.780 vote to do

01:03:28.540 an early census

01:03:29.480 instead of

01:03:30.200 doing it every

01:03:31.460 10 years as

01:03:32.420 is currently

01:03:33.000 the technique.

01:03:36.620 And so, I

01:03:39.580 guess I need

01:03:40.140 to catch up

01:03:41.280 on this one

01:03:41.940 because I

01:03:43.060 tried to figure

01:03:43.780 out why does

01:03:44.680 he think he

01:03:45.280 can make this

01:03:45.880 happen when he

01:03:46.500 doesn't have

01:03:46.920 that authority.

01:03:48.380 So, there

01:03:48.680 must be more

01:03:49.920 of a trick to

01:03:52.160 it than I'm

01:03:52.700 aware of.

01:03:53.200 Maybe it

01:03:54.400 just means

01:03:54.880 Congress will

01:03:55.660 approve it.

01:03:56.980 But why does

01:03:57.500 he need an

01:03:57.960 executive order?

01:03:58.920 I don't know.

01:04:00.220 So, he's

01:04:01.300 trying to get

01:04:01.880 that done.

01:04:02.380 I don't know

01:04:02.680 if that's

01:04:02.980 real.

01:04:04.700 China's solar

01:04:05.500 industry is

01:04:06.600 they got rid

01:04:08.700 of 31% of

01:04:09.780 the workforce

01:04:10.240 because they're

01:04:11.380 so overbuilt

01:04:12.400 and prices

01:04:13.740 are down.

01:04:15.340 So, remember

01:04:16.740 how you were

01:04:18.280 all worried

01:04:18.960 that China 0.93

01:04:20.340 would own

01:04:21.060 the solar

01:04:21.680 panel market?

01:04:23.200 And the

01:04:23.820 only thing

01:04:24.200 that happened

01:04:24.580 was we

01:04:25.080 got cheap

01:04:25.560 solar panels

01:04:26.320 and they

01:04:27.360 got themselves

01:04:29.180 a big

01:04:29.580 industry that

01:04:30.240 doesn't make

01:04:30.720 money.

01:04:32.380 We're not

01:04:33.100 really good

01:04:33.600 at predicting

01:04:34.200 where things

01:04:36.260 go, are we?

01:04:38.620 All right,

01:04:39.260 here's an

01:04:40.220 update.

01:04:40.720 Apparently,

01:04:41.260 Netanyahu's 0.69

01:04:42.360 security cabinet

01:04:43.420 is going to

01:04:43.920 meet about

01:04:44.400 Gaza and

01:04:45.900 about the

01:04:46.640 idea to

01:04:47.540 resettle

01:04:48.360 all the

01:04:49.940 residents so

01:04:51.060 that Israel

01:04:52.200 just owns

01:04:52.940 Gaza from

01:04:53.640 now on.

01:04:55.280 And I

01:04:57.060 will remind

01:04:57.660 you, because

01:04:58.420 it's useful

01:04:59.260 for this

01:04:59.900 podcasting

01:05:00.980 model, that

01:05:02.100 I think I'm

01:05:02.840 the only

01:05:03.280 public figure

01:05:04.220 who told you

01:05:05.440 on day one

01:05:06.320 of that war,

01:05:07.380 or roughly

01:05:08.540 around that,

01:05:09.640 that Israel

01:05:10.460 wasn't going

01:05:11.120 to just beat

01:05:12.000 them up and

01:05:12.460 then let

01:05:12.860 them go,

01:05:13.240 that they

01:05:14.520 were going

01:05:14.900 to essentially

01:05:15.980 take control

01:05:16.700 of Gaza

01:05:17.120 forever and

01:05:17.900 make it part

01:05:18.500 of Israel.

01:05:19.800 And I'm

01:05:20.700 right.

01:05:21.680 So far,

01:05:22.820 looks like I'm

01:05:23.400 right.

01:05:24.060 Now, how

01:05:25.280 do you explain

01:05:26.240 that I have

01:05:27.800 no expertise

01:05:28.880 in that region

01:05:30.760 or no expertise

01:05:32.000 in that domain

01:05:32.840 whatsoever,

01:05:34.140 and that I'm

01:05:34.740 the only person

01:05:35.600 who was right

01:05:36.440 about what

01:05:38.480 would happen?

01:05:39.540 How do you

01:05:39.960 explain that?

01:05:41.960 Well, before

01:05:42.560 you answer,

01:05:43.980 I should

01:05:44.780 remind you

01:05:45.300 that at the

01:05:46.020 beginning of

01:05:46.720 the pandemic

01:05:47.260 when Trump

01:05:48.580 announced he

01:05:49.220 was going

01:05:49.520 to do

01:05:49.760 Project Warp

01:05:50.720 Speed, I

01:05:52.180 predicted in

01:05:53.040 public that

01:05:53.900 the vaccinations

01:05:54.800 would not

01:05:56.080 work.

01:05:57.200 And then when

01:05:58.120 it was rolled

01:05:58.760 out, and they

01:05:59.440 said it works,

01:06:00.120 it works, we're

01:06:01.200 rolling it out,

01:06:02.360 I said in

01:06:03.100 public again, I

01:06:04.640 predict it won't

01:06:05.500 work.

01:06:06.700 Now, how much

01:06:07.420 did I know

01:06:08.260 about virology

01:06:09.580 and vaccinations

01:06:10.500 and what was

01:06:11.280 my expertise?

01:06:13.000 Yes, it was

01:06:13.640 none.

01:06:14.420 I had none.

01:06:16.380 But as far

01:06:18.440 as I know, I

01:06:19.280 was the only

01:06:19.960 public figure

01:06:20.980 that I'm aware

01:06:21.680 of who said

01:06:23.420 on day one

01:06:24.080 of the

01:06:24.300 vaccinations

01:06:24.840 that I

01:06:25.640 predict they

01:06:26.160 won't work.

01:06:27.920 So how did I

01:06:28.700 get that right

01:06:29.320 with no expertise

01:06:30.520 whatsoever?

01:06:31.680 Here's another

01:06:32.180 one.

01:06:32.400 when Russia

01:06:33.780 was threatening

01:06:34.900 to attack

01:06:37.220 Ukraine, I

01:06:39.380 got one

01:06:39.960 prediction 100%

01:06:41.580 wrong, as

01:06:42.480 wrong as

01:06:42.900 anything could

01:06:43.400 be, and I

01:06:44.320 said that

01:06:44.920 Putin must be

01:06:46.160 bluffing because

01:06:48.100 he must know

01:06:49.360 that it's not

01:06:49.900 going to be as

01:06:50.360 easy as people

01:06:51.700 say.

01:06:52.520 So I predicted

01:06:53.560 that he wouldn't

01:06:54.260 go in.

01:06:55.480 But I also

01:06:56.360 predicted that if

01:06:57.320 he did, he

01:06:58.480 would not be able

01:06:59.140 to conquer

01:06:59.600 Ukraine in

01:07:00.320 two weeks and

01:07:01.660 that the

01:07:03.380 ground assets

01:07:04.940 that he sent

01:07:05.540 in would be

01:07:06.200 too vulnerable

01:07:06.840 to high-tech

01:07:08.420 air stuff,

01:07:09.580 you know,

01:07:09.800 missiles and

01:07:10.560 drones and

01:07:11.220 stuff.

01:07:11.880 And that's

01:07:12.420 what happened.

01:07:14.080 So I have

01:07:15.400 no military

01:07:16.020 experience, but

01:07:17.860 why was it

01:07:18.500 that my

01:07:18.800 prediction that

01:07:19.860 Ukraine would 0.96

01:07:22.180 be able to

01:07:22.580 hold off

01:07:23.100 Moscow, why

01:07:24.680 was that right

01:07:25.360 so far?

01:07:26.880 I mean, you

01:07:27.300 could argue if

01:07:27.920 you wait

01:07:28.320 forever, it'll

01:07:29.000 become wrong,

01:07:29.900 and that's

01:07:30.360 true.

01:07:31.180 But I was

01:07:32.960 just about the

01:07:33.960 most right on

01:07:35.160 a military

01:07:35.720 question.

01:07:37.480 How is that

01:07:38.280 possible when I

01:07:39.840 don't have any

01:07:40.360 military expertise?

01:07:42.000 How about the

01:07:42.680 fact that I

01:07:43.280 predicted that

01:07:44.100 Trump would

01:07:44.600 win in 2016?

01:07:46.700 What was my

01:07:47.460 prior political

01:07:48.480 experience?

01:07:50.000 None.

01:07:50.940 None.

01:07:51.620 None at all.

01:07:52.380 How did I get

01:07:52.960 that right in a

01:07:54.140 domain that I

01:07:54.960 shouldn't have

01:07:55.420 known anything?

01:07:57.220 How about when

01:07:58.440 the Ukraine

01:07:59.860 war was 0.89

01:08:00.660 newer, and

01:08:02.340 I predicted

01:08:03.040 that Purgosian,

01:08:04.420 remember

01:08:04.800 Purgosian?

01:08:06.140 I predicted

01:08:06.760 that he would

01:08:07.360 turn on

01:08:08.040 Moscow and

01:08:08.900 try to

01:08:09.240 overthrow

01:08:09.720 Putin.

01:08:11.040 I'm the

01:08:11.760 only person

01:08:12.460 who said

01:08:12.860 that.

01:08:13.700 Nobody else

01:08:14.240 in the world

01:08:14.680 said that,

01:08:15.660 and then he

01:08:16.200 did.

01:08:17.500 And then

01:08:18.040 when he

01:08:20.140 got obviously

01:08:21.200 murdered

01:08:21.700 immediately by

01:08:22.640 Putin, once

01:08:23.340 they got

01:08:23.620 their hands

01:08:24.200 son, the

01:08:25.720 news told

01:08:26.400 you that

01:08:26.800 he was

01:08:27.200 flying off

01:08:27.820 to Belarus

01:08:28.360 to live

01:08:29.040 his life

01:08:29.460 happily, and

01:08:30.640 I laughed

01:08:31.120 at you and

01:08:31.800 said, no,

01:08:32.740 he's already

01:08:33.200 been killed.

01:08:34.620 There's no

01:08:35.240 way he's still

01:08:35.860 alive.

01:08:36.940 And of course,

01:08:37.440 I was right

01:08:37.900 about that.

01:08:38.920 Now, how did I

01:08:39.420 get all of

01:08:39.980 those predictions

01:08:40.680 right?

01:08:41.380 I mean, those

01:08:41.800 were really

01:08:42.280 specific predictions,

01:08:44.160 and nobody

01:08:44.680 else made

01:08:45.220 them.

01:08:46.300 Well, I don't

01:08:46.720 have any

01:08:47.060 expertise in

01:08:47.820 that area,

01:08:48.320 right?

01:08:49.180 But how did I

01:08:49.980 get that

01:08:50.340 right?

01:08:53.800 And so, you

01:08:54.740 could probably

01:08:55.040 come up with

01:08:55.560 a few more.

01:08:56.440 Here's my

01:08:57.180 theory.

01:09:00.160 I believe

01:09:01.040 that the

01:09:01.740 reason I

01:09:02.540 have an

01:09:02.840 advantage over

01:09:03.460 the experts

01:09:04.220 is that

01:09:05.180 experts are

01:09:05.980 not allowed

01:09:06.740 to depart

01:09:07.920 from the

01:09:08.560 other expert

01:09:09.380 opinions.

01:09:11.440 That as

01:09:12.120 soon as

01:09:12.680 you, let's

01:09:13.220 say you're a

01:09:13.680 military expert,

01:09:14.800 as soon as

01:09:15.300 a few people

01:09:15.900 say, well,

01:09:17.200 Russia is 0.79

01:09:17.840 going to just

01:09:18.340 crush Ukraine 0.76

01:09:19.320 in 10

01:09:19.820 minutes.

01:09:20.980 You don't

01:09:21.680 want to be

01:09:22.120 the person

01:09:22.600 who's on

01:09:22.960 the other

01:09:23.240 side of

01:09:23.640 that if

01:09:24.300 you're an

01:09:24.600 actual expert.

01:09:26.500 So, it's

01:09:27.100 just safer to

01:09:29.020 go with the

01:09:29.560 majority, I

01:09:30.240 guess.

01:09:31.520 And I have

01:09:32.320 the freedom,

01:09:34.120 since I don't

01:09:34.720 know anything

01:09:35.220 about any of

01:09:36.100 these topics,

01:09:37.800 I have no

01:09:38.960 expertise in

01:09:39.800 any of these

01:09:40.280 domains, I

01:09:41.440 have the

01:09:41.820 freedom to

01:09:42.660 say, well,

01:09:43.880 what's it

01:09:44.280 look like?

01:09:45.800 And then I

01:09:46.260 just apply

01:09:46.760 usually the

01:09:47.860 Dilbert filter

01:09:48.700 to it and

01:09:49.420 a persuasion

01:09:50.180 filter, usually

01:09:51.660 some economic

01:09:52.540 filter, just

01:09:53.540 basic stuff.

01:09:54.860 And I say,

01:09:55.620 well, looks to

01:09:57.220 me like this

01:09:58.360 is going to

01:09:58.740 happen.

01:10:00.000 So, I

01:10:01.740 would argue

01:10:02.340 that it could

01:10:03.500 be that being

01:10:04.300 an expert

01:10:05.000 makes you

01:10:06.680 retarded. 1.00

01:10:08.340 Because you

01:10:09.340 can't really,

01:10:10.360 you can't really

01:10:11.840 throw away your

01:10:12.580 whole career

01:10:13.400 over a specific

01:10:15.420 prediction.

01:10:16.060 prediction.

01:10:16.800 But I

01:10:17.520 can make a

01:10:18.040 wild prediction

01:10:18.740 and if I'm

01:10:19.400 wrong, I'll

01:10:21.420 just say, oh,

01:10:22.080 I got that one

01:10:22.600 totally wrong.

01:10:23.540 It wouldn't

01:10:23.880 make any

01:10:24.280 difference at

01:10:24.720 all.

01:10:26.800 So, I have a

01:10:27.580 little bit more

01:10:28.100 freedom to

01:10:29.380 consider the

01:10:30.240 alternatives.

01:10:31.240 So, maybe

01:10:31.540 that's what's

01:10:32.020 going on.

01:10:32.720 It's my best

01:10:33.300 guess.

01:10:34.860 All right.

01:10:36.500 As you know,

01:10:37.520 Minnesota is in

01:10:39.060 a pitched

01:10:40.180 battle with

01:10:41.100 California to

01:10:42.860 see which

01:10:43.680 would make

01:10:44.220 the shittiest

01:10:45.220 state.

01:10:46.940 All right.

01:10:48.040 If I said to

01:10:49.240 you that a

01:10:50.660 housing program

01:10:51.700 has been caught

01:10:52.440 stealing $100

01:10:53.460 million, a

01:10:55.260 housing program,

01:10:57.140 what state

01:10:58.580 would you

01:10:59.180 imagine that

01:10:59.820 was?

01:11:01.200 We'll play

01:11:01.940 this game.

01:11:02.420 The answer

01:11:02.780 is Minnesota.

01:11:04.660 So, there's a

01:11:05.120 new story.

01:11:05.920 $100 million

01:11:06.640 stolen from

01:11:07.640 some housing

01:11:08.240 program.

01:11:10.480 Here's another

01:11:11.280 one.

01:11:12.360 A man got 0.57

01:11:13.460 28 years in

01:11:14.720 prison, according

01:11:15.440 to the

01:11:15.840 Associated Press,

01:11:17.100 the AP, for

01:11:19.280 $48 million

01:11:20.700 of COVID-era

01:11:22.300 food and

01:11:23.520 fraud scandal.

01:11:25.120 Is that

01:11:25.760 California or

01:11:27.200 Minnesota?

01:11:28.840 The answer

01:11:29.560 is Minnesota.

01:11:31.060 Minnesota.

01:11:32.320 All right.

01:11:34.620 So, there

01:11:36.000 you go.

01:11:36.400 California, if

01:11:42.180 you give us

01:11:42.780 $100

01:11:43.300 billion for

01:11:44.320 a bullet

01:11:45.100 train, we'll

01:11:46.440 probably just

01:11:47.080 keep that

01:11:47.700 money.

01:11:48.860 If you give

01:11:49.320 us money to

01:11:50.140 fix the fire

01:11:51.540 damage in

01:11:52.140 L.A., well,

01:11:53.640 we'll just let

01:11:54.240 somebody steal

01:11:55.020 it, probably.

01:11:56.020 I don't think

01:11:56.680 we'll build any

01:11:57.360 new homes or

01:11:58.080 help any

01:11:58.700 people.

01:12:00.060 So, which

01:12:01.100 country or

01:12:02.260 which state is

01:12:03.520 shittier?

01:12:03.880 Minnesota or

01:12:06.140 California?

01:12:08.460 I'm going to

01:12:09.260 say that

01:12:09.920 Minnesota is

01:12:11.280 shittier simply

01:12:13.820 because they

01:12:15.360 have worse

01:12:16.000 weather and

01:12:17.200 more mosquitoes.

01:12:19.600 And otherwise,

01:12:21.100 we're both

01:12:21.580 corrupt.

01:12:23.900 All right.

01:12:24.780 I got this

01:12:26.660 question so

01:12:27.680 many times

01:12:28.440 from so

01:12:28.940 many people

01:12:29.440 and I don't

01:12:29.920 want to have

01:12:30.260 individual

01:12:30.840 arguments with

01:12:31.700 all of you.

01:12:32.940 So, people

01:12:34.520 keep asking

01:12:35.180 me, Scott, if

01:12:36.260 we're a

01:12:36.700 simulation or

01:12:38.100 maybe things

01:12:39.780 are not the

01:12:41.700 religious model,

01:12:43.740 didn't there

01:12:44.600 have to be an

01:12:45.560 intelligence that

01:12:46.540 kicked it all

01:12:47.260 off?

01:12:47.780 To which I

01:12:48.300 say, no.

01:12:50.420 And then they

01:12:51.060 say, oh,

01:12:51.680 but there had

01:12:53.180 to be something

01:12:54.080 that was there

01:12:55.600 first and it

01:12:57.220 had to be an

01:12:57.720 intelligence,

01:12:58.420 right?

01:12:59.220 Otherwise, we

01:12:59.980 couldn't get to

01:13:00.620 where we are

01:13:01.080 now.

01:13:01.620 And then I

01:13:02.060 say, no.

01:13:04.420 And they

01:13:05.000 say, well,

01:13:05.560 explain that.

01:13:07.080 And I

01:13:07.620 think, I

01:13:08.080 don't have to

01:13:08.440 explain it.

01:13:09.540 I can just

01:13:10.300 say no.

01:13:12.520 But if you'd

01:13:13.720 like a little

01:13:14.240 bit more,

01:13:15.600 here are the

01:13:16.280 possibilities.

01:13:16.900 One is that

01:13:18.080 time is a

01:13:19.540 complete illusion.

01:13:20.520 If time is an

01:13:22.480 illusion and

01:13:23.580 everything is

01:13:24.300 just sort of

01:13:24.880 here or some

01:13:26.340 other version of

01:13:27.080 it, just, you

01:13:28.060 know, time is

01:13:28.760 an illusion, then

01:13:30.620 there's no such

01:13:31.500 thing as something

01:13:32.200 that started it

01:13:33.020 all because time

01:13:34.440 is an illusion.

01:13:35.640 The other

01:13:36.320 possibility is

01:13:37.320 that we create

01:13:38.200 the past, we

01:13:40.460 don't just come

01:13:41.580 from it.

01:13:43.020 So it could be

01:13:44.140 that we're

01:13:44.580 creating the

01:13:45.460 past actively.

01:13:46.920 that takes a

01:13:49.580 little more

01:13:50.220 explaining, but

01:13:51.080 that's another

01:13:51.800 way that it

01:13:53.460 didn't have to

01:13:53.940 be an original

01:13:54.860 cause.

01:13:57.220 And my

01:13:58.140 favorite is

01:13:59.020 that time is

01:13:59.920 circular, meaning

01:14:02.160 that, let's say

01:14:02.960 there was a

01:14:03.420 big bang, but

01:14:05.640 everything expands,

01:14:07.140 eventually

01:14:07.520 everything will

01:14:08.220 come back

01:14:08.660 together, and

01:14:09.920 it will just

01:14:10.360 happen again.

01:14:11.380 And that

01:14:11.720 everything that

01:14:12.420 is possible

01:14:13.240 will eventually

01:14:14.820 happen.

01:14:15.220 So, you

01:14:18.500 wouldn't need a

01:14:19.100 beginning with

01:14:19.780 that model,

01:14:20.800 because it would

01:14:21.280 just be infinite.

01:14:22.420 How about if

01:14:23.320 time is infinite?

01:14:25.100 Then there is

01:14:25.900 no beginning,

01:14:27.280 because there

01:14:27.720 will always be

01:14:28.180 something before

01:14:28.920 it.

01:14:29.600 But did the

01:14:30.160 thing before it

01:14:30.920 have to be

01:14:31.360 intelligent?

01:14:32.880 I don't know.

01:14:35.120 I can see why

01:14:36.320 you would think

01:14:36.820 it might be, but

01:14:38.520 does that mean

01:14:39.100 it has to be?

01:14:40.420 Can you tell

01:14:41.280 me that just

01:14:42.300 things bouncing

01:14:43.240 around forever

01:14:44.320 would not

01:14:45.120 someday cause

01:14:46.120 something that

01:14:46.920 looked like a

01:14:48.360 computer program

01:14:49.280 or intelligence?

01:14:50.680 I don't know.

01:14:52.140 But no, it

01:14:54.080 is not true

01:14:54.940 that there had

01:14:56.400 to be something

01:14:57.060 intelligent that

01:14:58.140 got it all

01:14:58.720 going.

01:14:59.500 It does not

01:15:00.100 have to be true

01:15:01.040 that there had

01:15:01.700 to be a

01:15:02.260 beginning or

01:15:02.980 something before

01:15:03.740 the beginning.

01:15:05.040 Could be

01:15:05.440 circular, could

01:15:06.400 be we don't

01:15:06.900 know what time

01:15:07.480 is, could

01:15:08.140 be we're in a

01:15:09.900 video game and

01:15:11.080 none of those

01:15:12.440 rules mean

01:15:13.000 anything cause

01:15:13.840 we're just

01:15:14.180 characters in a

01:15:15.080 video game.

01:15:15.900 But there are

01:15:16.540 lots of ways

01:15:17.360 that we don't

01:15:19.760 have to have a

01:15:20.340 beginning with

01:15:21.020 an intelligent

01:15:21.620 creator.

01:15:24.240 Anyway, that's

01:15:25.600 all I got for

01:15:26.000 now.
