Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2937 CWSA 08⧸24⧸25

00:00:00.000 There you are. Come on in.

00:00:02.700 There's lots of room.

00:00:05.460 Happy Sunday, everybody.

00:00:07.640 Let me get my comments working so I can see what's on your mind.

00:00:12.900 Ooh, no, not that.

00:00:15.240 There we go.

00:00:17.420 Everybody, come on in, grab a seat.

00:00:20.700 It's time for the least lazy podcaster in the world.

00:00:25.860 Yeah, that's me.

00:00:26.580 We're working on the weekend.

00:00:30.000 But it's not work if you want to do it.

00:00:32.960 So, not really work.

00:00:36.280 Are you ready for this?

00:00:40.820 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:45.520 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time.

00:00:49.280 But if you'd like to, take a chance on elevating your experience up to levels

00:00:55.060 that no one could even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains.

00:00:59.060 All you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass of tankard shells

00:01:03.740 to sign a canteen nugget or a flask.

00:01:06.120 A vessel of any kind.

00:01:07.680 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:09.320 I like coffee.

00:01:10.800 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day,

00:01:14.800 the thing that makes everything better.

00:01:17.200 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens.

00:01:20.480 How?

00:01:20.920 How?

00:01:21.020 Tremendous.

00:01:26.580 Tremendous.

00:01:30.260 And I have all of you to thank for the deliciousness of that coffee,

00:01:35.300 because you're the ones who added the simultaneity.

00:01:38.820 Tremendous.

00:01:40.060 Yeah.

00:01:41.040 That is the special part.

00:01:43.780 All right.

00:01:45.100 Do you remember a story about a man who fell in love with his AI chatbot?

00:01:52.040 Which apparently was not a deal breaker for his actual girlfriend and child.

00:01:57.200 They seemed to be willing to let him have a romantic relationship with the AI.

00:02:06.240 His girlfriend did.

00:02:07.760 Anyway, the update on that is that man has become bored with his chatbot,

00:02:15.480 he told News Nation, because, well, let me tell you why.

00:02:20.520 It turns out that he had to initiate all the conversations.

00:02:26.500 And that when he ran into things to talk about,

00:02:29.540 because he was the one who made up the things,

00:02:33.240 he didn't really have an attraction to the chatbot.

00:02:37.380 It was just sort of boring.

00:02:38.540 It didn't really add enough.

00:02:40.500 And I wonder how it would ever be possible

00:02:44.820 for an AI to be interesting in the long run.

00:02:50.520 I'm not positive if it's possible, and here's why.

00:02:55.340 Let me check with you, and you can tell me in the comments

00:02:58.100 if I'm off or not.

00:03:05.320 When you're doing the talking to someone else,

00:03:08.820 you usually enjoy it, right?

00:03:10.920 Because you're doing the talking.

00:03:12.720 So you're talking about what you want to talk about,

00:03:15.120 and you're being heard, and you're getting attention.

00:03:17.480 So when you're doing the talking, you're happy.

00:03:20.520 But what makes you willing to listen to somebody else?

00:03:26.040 Now, if they had knowledge or information you needed,

00:03:30.440 then of course you'd listen to them.

00:03:32.680 That's just a search engine.

00:03:34.780 But what if somebody wanted to talk about something

00:03:37.480 that was meaningful to them but not to you?

00:03:41.880 Why would you ever listen to it?

00:03:44.360 And why would that ever be interesting?

00:03:47.480 And the answer is, it's because you're interested in the person.

00:03:51.860 If your child, for example, told you a story about something

00:03:56.360 that happened at school, it might not be the most fascinating story,

00:04:01.620 but you'd still be interested in it because it's your child.

00:04:04.340 Same with if it's a romantic partner that you're interested in

00:04:08.460 or anybody who is extra interesting.

00:04:13.600 But AI can never attract you like a person can,

00:04:18.600 like a child or something like that.

00:04:21.440 So when AI talks, once you get over the novelty of it,

00:04:26.380 there's nothing there.

00:04:27.900 Because listening is all about how you feel about the person.

00:04:35.160 And then the listening is the response to how you feel about them.

00:04:38.460 If you hated the person, you would do everything you could

00:04:42.520 to reduce the amount you have to listen to them, right?

00:04:46.500 So AI can never compete conversationally

00:04:50.920 once you get past the novelty.

00:04:53.340 So I feel like I'm the leading skeptic of AI at this point.

00:04:59.860 I've told you that AI can't be funny.

00:05:03.960 I don't think it ever can.

00:05:06.320 I don't think it ever can be interesting as a conversationalist

00:05:10.280 in the long run.

00:05:11.980 In the short run, yes, it's pretty impressive.

00:05:14.400 Long run, no, it can't be interesting.

00:05:16.860 It doesn't have that ability.

00:05:17.900 And then, of course, the news has caught up to Scott

00:05:23.920 on the question of whether AI is getting better

00:05:26.820 and will just keep on getting better at a fast rate.

00:05:30.440 It doesn't look like it.

00:05:31.920 It doesn't look like they can fix the hallucinations.

00:05:35.480 It doesn't look like they can teach the robot to do things

00:05:39.240 just by looking at stuff,

00:05:40.680 although I'll talk about that a little more.

00:05:42.180 We may be getting kind of close to peak AI.

00:05:51.600 Now, when I say peak,

00:05:52.960 I don't mean that it's not going to improve,

00:05:55.180 but it may improve just sort of incrementally

00:05:57.980 and slowly from this point on.

00:06:00.360 I don't know.

00:06:02.480 I'm a skeptic of advanced general intelligence.

00:06:08.600 Do you know the name Grant Cardone?

00:06:13.880 He's an investor, real estate guy.

00:06:16.760 He's got some kind of equity investments he does.

00:06:20.340 Anyway, so he's a rich, successful guy,

00:06:23.940 and he posted on X,

00:06:25.640 I have never met a person who smoked weed daily

00:06:28.400 and created massive success.

00:06:30.800 Why am I wrong?

00:06:32.700 Well, let me tell you why you're wrong.

00:06:35.560 Number one, you have to define massive.

00:06:38.600 So I don't know if I would qualify or not.

00:06:41.480 So massive might be in billions.

00:06:44.120 I don't know.

00:06:44.540 Maybe he's got a different definition.

00:06:47.460 But I'll tell you, in my experience,

00:06:50.400 because I'm out of the closet about my marijuana usage,

00:06:55.020 people will tell me or invite me to participate

00:07:00.080 that you would never believe are people who smoke marijuana.

00:07:05.500 So part of the reason that people say,

00:07:09.760 I don't believe anybody's ever succeeded if they use marijuana a lot,

00:07:15.140 I think it has a lot to do with the fact that those people know not to tell you.

00:07:20.880 Because usually you know who's going to be able to handle that and who's not.

00:07:25.420 So I think it has more to do with selecting who you spend time with.

00:07:30.600 And it also has a lot to do with the industry.

00:07:34.400 If my job were real estate investor or equity investor guy,

00:07:41.480 probably it doesn't go well with weed.

00:07:44.600 Probably not.

00:07:46.100 And you could come up with 25 other jobs

00:07:49.760 that you wouldn't want to get near weed.

00:07:53.180 But for creative jobs and a lot of tech jobs

00:07:57.160 and even a lot of inventing kind of things

00:08:01.580 where creativity is involved

00:08:03.900 and sometimes even writing code, I would imagine,

00:08:08.160 writing books, drawing comics,

00:08:10.880 there are some activities that just get better.

00:08:15.140 Well, New York City Mayor Hopeful Zoran Mondani, the commie,

00:08:24.060 he did some kind of public event where he did a bench press.

00:08:29.460 And apparently it was for Men's Day in Brooklyn.

00:08:33.680 Men's Day.

00:08:35.320 So he shows up for Men's Day 0.89

00:08:38.860 and they put him on a bench to bench press.

00:08:42.060 And people were not impressed

00:08:46.200 about the amount his little noodle arms could lift. 0.52

00:08:50.120 So that didn't work out well for him.

00:08:53.420 So my advice is that the next time you go to Men's Day, 0.94

00:08:58.260 bring a man.

00:08:59.520 Yeah, bring a man. 0.94

00:09:02.340 And I saw somebody on Locals had a comment

00:09:06.140 that said, Mom Dami puts the man in Ma'am Dami. 1.00

00:09:15.120 Anyway, that was pretty funny.

00:09:19.660 Well, Bill Maher had Andrew Huberman on recently,

00:09:23.600 on Friday, I guess.

00:09:24.440 And Huberman said that he talked to one

00:09:31.520 of the greatest neurosurgeons in history.

00:09:34.740 So he knows somebody who's one of the greatest neurosurgeons

00:09:38.460 in all of history,

00:09:40.220 which is not that hard

00:09:42.480 if you assume that there weren't that many neurosurgeons

00:09:46.140 100,000 years ago.

00:09:47.420 But of the recent neurosurgeons,

00:09:50.800 one of the greatest ones,

00:09:54.140 Huberman asked him,

00:09:55.980 what percentage of the things that they learned

00:09:58.100 in medical school

00:10:00.040 and is in the medical literature,

00:10:02.800 what percentage of it is not currently accurate,

00:10:07.760 meaning that we know it's wrong?

00:10:10.420 And the greatest neurosurgeon in history

00:10:13.840 said that more than half of the information

00:10:16.680 in medical textbooks

00:10:17.880 is dead wrong about health

00:10:20.800 and we know it.

00:10:24.820 More than half

00:10:26.100 of your medical book,

00:10:32.620 more than half of it,

00:10:34.400 we know not to be useful or true.

00:10:39.040 Now, the good news is

00:10:40.440 that there's so much DEI

00:10:43.140 in admissions for medical school

00:10:47.840 that if the DEI produces people

00:10:51.100 who are always wrong

00:10:52.300 but then they don't get correctly

00:10:57.060 what the book says,

00:10:58.980 it might be a case of two wrongs make a right.

00:11:02.700 So if the book says,

00:11:04.760 in this condition, take this pill,

00:11:07.220 but the DEI hire doesn't know

00:11:10.920 that that's what the book says,

00:11:13.000 well, you get the right answer.

00:11:14.500 They won't recommend the pill.

00:11:16.520 See where I'm going with this?

00:11:18.340 Yeah.

00:11:19.000 DEI might be the solution

00:11:21.480 to inaccurate medical textbooks.

00:11:25.020 Well, there was a surprising study

00:11:29.700 it's being called.

00:11:30.620 Surprising.

00:11:31.780 It finds that eating meat

00:11:33.960 may protect against cancer.

00:11:37.980 Uh-huh.

00:11:39.040 According to McMaster University.

00:11:41.780 Let's see.

00:11:42.800 If you had to guess,

00:11:45.000 who do you think funded this study

00:11:47.360 about whether meat

00:11:49.480 is good for your health

00:11:52.700 or bad for your health?

00:11:53.600 Who do you think funded that?

00:11:55.880 Well, if you guessed

00:11:56.960 the National Cattlemen's Beef Association,

00:12:00.560 you would be very accurate.

00:12:04.040 That's right.

00:12:05.120 It was the last line in the article,

00:12:08.360 you know, but I read to the end.

00:12:10.520 And sure enough,

00:12:11.860 it was funded by

00:12:12.940 National Cattlemen's Beef Association.

00:12:15.780 And you would not be surprised to learn

00:12:18.140 that according to the study they funded,

00:12:22.260 meat's good for you.

00:12:23.600 Now, they might be right.

00:12:26.660 I'm not arguing with the conclusion.

00:12:29.560 But in general,

00:12:32.140 in general,

00:12:33.680 I wouldn't trust any study

00:12:36.120 that was funded by somebody

00:12:37.580 whose entire business economic model

00:12:40.760 depends on one result.

00:12:42.560 Well, sure, maybe our medical information

00:12:49.480 is unreliable.

00:12:51.540 Yeah, maybe it is.

00:12:53.020 Maybe our diet information

00:12:56.040 is not to be trusted.

00:12:58.780 Sure.

00:12:59.840 But at least our crime data is accurate.

00:13:04.420 What?

00:13:05.100 Oh, okay.

00:13:07.500 Our crime data is not accurate.

00:13:10.620 Dr. Drew was pointing out

00:13:12.740 that Gavin Newsom,

00:13:16.500 I guess Dr. Drew is on Adam Carolla's podcast,

00:13:19.740 I believe.

00:13:20.800 And they're talking about

00:13:23.680 how Gavin Newsom

00:13:24.940 will say things like

00:13:27.840 8 out of 10

00:13:28.800 of the top state murder rates

00:13:30.620 are in red states.

00:13:32.760 So 8 out of 10

00:13:34.260 of the states

00:13:36.060 of the top state murder rates

00:13:38.740 are in red states.

00:13:40.860 However,

00:13:42.260 the thing that Newsom leaves out,

00:13:44.100 and you'd have to be

00:13:45.600 pretty well informed

00:13:46.900 to notice

00:13:47.520 that he left it out,

00:13:49.160 is that

00:13:50.140 if you look at the cities,

00:13:54.060 with 9 out of 10 of them

00:13:58.300 are Democratic cities.

00:13:59.920 So the cities

00:14:00.840 with the highest

00:14:01.700 crime rate,

00:14:03.880 murder rate in particular,

00:14:05.780 are Democratic cities.

00:14:08.740 But often they can be

00:14:10.500 in

00:14:10.940 a red state.

00:14:12.920 But the governor

00:14:14.260 has less control

00:14:15.340 over what's happening

00:14:16.120 in crime

00:14:16.740 than the mayor's.

00:14:19.440 So

00:14:20.120 if you were not

00:14:22.580 really,

00:14:24.660 let's say,

00:14:25.540 involved

00:14:26.140 with the news,

00:14:28.660 how many of you

00:14:29.400 knew that,

00:14:30.080 by the way?

00:14:31.500 Did most of you know

00:14:33.180 that when the Democrats

00:14:34.680 say,

00:14:35.740 oh,

00:14:36.200 the highest murder rates

00:14:37.920 are

00:14:38.340 Republican states,

00:14:40.800 did most of you

00:14:43.440 know

00:14:43.880 that that's,

00:14:45.220 you know,

00:14:45.600 yet another one

00:14:46.420 of their hoaxes?

00:14:48.680 Because

00:14:49.120 it doesn't matter

00:14:50.220 who's running the state,

00:14:51.320 it matters who's running

00:14:52.100 the city.

00:14:53.340 Most of you knew that,

00:14:54.500 right?

00:14:55.340 Yeah,

00:14:55.640 my audience,

00:14:56.680 I like to think

00:14:57.380 my audience

00:14:58.080 is the best

00:14:59.440 informed audience.

00:15:01.940 Partly because

00:15:02.940 you pay attention

00:15:04.280 to the news,

00:15:05.000 but partly because

00:15:05.840 you also

00:15:06.380 spend more time,

00:15:07.880 usually with me,

00:15:08.740 figuring out

00:15:10.180 what part of the news

00:15:11.680 is pure bullshit.

00:15:13.900 So

00:15:14.280 I feel like

00:15:15.180 literally,

00:15:16.900 you know,

00:15:17.360 if tests were

00:15:18.320 administered to

00:15:19.200 the audiences

00:15:20.500 of all the

00:15:21.280 different

00:15:21.760 podcasters,

00:15:23.960 I'll bet you

00:15:24.720 would win

00:15:25.220 because you

00:15:27.160 would get

00:15:27.600 the things

00:15:28.320 that everybody

00:15:28.960 knows,

00:15:29.920 you would know

00:15:30.440 those,

00:15:31.420 but you would be

00:15:32.040 able to go

00:15:32.400 another level

00:15:33.020 deeper,

00:15:33.780 and then

00:15:34.620 a third level

00:15:35.500 deeper,

00:15:35.880 which would be

00:15:38.420 which of these

00:15:39.420 things are

00:15:39.860 hoaxes

00:15:40.460 and propaganda.

00:15:42.760 Well,

00:15:43.400 speaking of

00:15:44.360 things,

00:15:47.820 I've got

00:15:49.620 no transition

00:15:50.380 for this one.

00:15:51.820 So,

00:15:52.480 you know,

00:15:53.080 California

00:15:54.600 is looking

00:15:55.240 to redistrict

00:15:56.140 because

00:15:56.740 taxes

00:15:57.440 redistricted,

00:15:58.900 and I was

00:15:59.460 looking at

00:15:59.940 a thread

00:16:00.660 from

00:16:01.160 an ex-user

00:16:02.720 Cremieux,

00:16:04.500 who is a

00:16:05.940 really good

00:16:06.360 follow,

00:16:06.900 has a lot

00:16:07.360 of good

00:16:07.680 posts every

00:16:09.360 day.

00:16:10.160 Cremieux,

00:16:11.160 C-R-E-M-I-E-U-X. 1.00

00:16:16.160 Anyway,

00:16:16.720 he points out

00:16:17.380 that there

00:16:19.280 are more

00:16:19.660 Republican

00:16:20.220 states than

00:16:21.280 if they were

00:16:21.900 to do their

00:16:22.480 own redistricting,

00:16:23.900 and the

00:16:24.540 Democrats did 0.64

00:16:25.280 the same,

00:16:26.520 and it became

00:16:27.360 an all-out

00:16:27.960 contest,

00:16:28.900 the Republicans

00:16:29.580 would come

00:16:30.260 out ahead.

00:16:31.160 But on

00:16:31.620 top of

00:16:32.000 that,

00:16:33.800 apparently

00:16:35.280 there's

00:16:35.760 some

00:16:36.340 potential

00:16:37.820 Supreme

00:16:38.540 Court case.

00:16:39.660 I don't

00:16:40.000 think the

00:16:40.460 Supreme

00:16:40.780 Court has

00:16:41.240 accepted it

00:16:42.500 yet,

00:16:42.800 but they

00:16:43.080 asked for

00:16:43.720 some

00:16:43.980 information,

00:16:45.460 which suggests

00:16:46.560 that they

00:16:46.920 might.

00:16:48.240 And the

00:16:49.500 Supreme

00:16:49.860 Court will

00:16:50.360 be ruling

00:16:50.840 on the

00:16:51.380 Voting

00:16:51.860 Rights Act

00:16:52.600 Section

00:16:53.080 2,

00:16:53.700 this is

00:16:54.020 all from

00:16:54.420 Cremieux,

00:16:57.140 that allows

00:16:58.820 states to

00:17:02.280 draw their

00:17:02.880 redistricting

00:17:03.760 lines based

00:17:04.640 on race.

00:17:06.760 And there's

00:17:07.740 a good chance

00:17:08.440 that the

00:17:08.820 Supreme

00:17:09.160 Court will

00:17:09.700 say,

00:17:10.820 you cannot

00:17:11.600 draw your

00:17:13.940 boundaries based

00:17:14.940 on race.

00:17:17.140 I wouldn't

00:17:17.660 be a surprise

00:17:18.360 if that's what

00:17:19.600 they said.

00:17:20.140 I'm a little

00:17:20.520 surprised that it

00:17:21.360 was ever allowed

00:17:22.020 in the first

00:17:22.500 place.

00:17:22.860 but you

00:17:24.220 can see in

00:17:24.780 the real

00:17:25.100 world that

00:17:26.680 if they do

00:17:27.520 it by race,

00:17:28.720 they're in

00:17:29.260 pretty good

00:17:29.940 shape for

00:17:30.440 guessing who

00:17:32.220 is going

00:17:32.880 to get

00:17:33.080 elected.

00:17:36.000 So our

00:17:38.320 elections are

00:17:39.160 not exactly

00:17:39.940 up to the

00:17:41.460 voters.

00:17:42.540 It seems

00:17:43.100 like our

00:17:43.520 elections are

00:17:44.220 as much up

00:17:44.860 to the

00:17:45.460 process

00:17:46.940 manipulators.

00:17:48.800 The Mark

00:17:49.200 Eliases,

00:17:49.800 if you're

00:17:51.960 looking at

00:17:52.420 the left,

00:17:53.720 and a

00:17:55.260 lot of

00:17:55.500 what's

00:17:55.700 happening in

00:17:56.180 Texas if

00:17:57.840 you're looking

00:17:58.180 at the

00:17:58.500 right.

00:17:59.560 So in

00:17:59.980 both cases,

00:18:01.840 I feel as

00:18:03.600 if voting

00:18:04.300 is necessary

00:18:06.500 but at the

00:18:07.160 same time

00:18:07.660 is the

00:18:08.020 least important

00:18:09.060 determinant of

00:18:10.180 how things

00:18:10.680 go.

00:18:11.720 It has more

00:18:12.320 to do with

00:18:12.740 how the

00:18:13.040 news covers

00:18:13.780 stuff and

00:18:14.520 what hoax

00:18:15.660 is active

00:18:16.280 and what

00:18:17.520 rules have

00:18:18.280 been manipulated

00:18:19.180 and whether

00:18:20.000 there's mail-in

00:18:20.820 ballots or

00:18:21.420 not,

00:18:22.060 whether they

00:18:22.460 use machines

00:18:23.200 or not,

00:18:24.640 whether they

00:18:25.680 redistrict or

00:18:26.620 not.

00:18:27.800 If all that

00:18:28.660 other stuff

00:18:29.580 is how you

00:18:30.580 pick your

00:18:31.100 leaders and

00:18:32.060 decide who's

00:18:32.680 in charge,

00:18:33.300 and it

00:18:33.560 looks like it

00:18:34.040 is,

00:18:34.940 it's more

00:18:35.360 about the

00:18:35.880 manipulation.

00:18:36.960 Who can

00:18:37.640 get away

00:18:38.380 with more

00:18:39.900 weasel

00:18:40.620 election

00:18:41.940 stuff?

00:18:44.720 So

00:18:44.960 anyway,

00:18:46.620 so yeah,

00:18:47.560 maybe our

00:18:48.020 medical stuff's

00:18:49.020 bad and

00:18:49.440 our crime

00:18:50.040 data is

00:18:50.660 fake and

00:18:51.380 our elections

00:18:52.540 are not

00:18:53.080 really based

00:18:53.660 on voting,

00:18:54.880 but at

00:18:55.640 least our

00:18:58.080 climate science

00:18:59.140 can be

00:19:00.240 depended on.

00:19:01.640 Oh,

00:19:02.140 wait,

00:19:02.800 I just saw

00:19:03.420 a post this

00:19:04.120 morning on

00:19:04.620 X from

00:19:05.320 Wide Awake

00:19:06.020 Media.

00:19:07.260 It's a

00:19:07.700 video of

00:19:09.080 Bernie Sanders

00:19:09.980 who in

00:19:11.320 2019 was

00:19:12.700 quite animated

00:19:14.480 and worked

00:19:15.200 up and

00:19:15.620 telling us,

00:19:17.000 the scientists

00:19:17.620 are telling

00:19:18.180 us if we

00:19:18.680 don't get

00:19:19.020 our act

00:19:19.340 together

00:19:19.660 within the

00:19:20.080 next eight

00:19:20.580 or nine

00:19:20.920 years,

00:19:21.460 we're talking

00:19:22.340 about cities

00:19:23.140 all over the

00:19:23.740 world going

00:19:24.400 underwater.

00:19:26.260 Let's see,

00:19:27.660 eight or nine

00:19:28.400 years added

00:19:30.080 to 2019,

00:19:31.760 so maybe

00:19:33.140 two more

00:19:34.060 years,

00:19:34.920 major cities

00:19:35.800 will disappear

00:19:36.580 underwater.

00:19:38.500 You know,

00:19:39.800 you'd kind of

00:19:40.460 expect that you'd

00:19:41.380 see a little bit

00:19:42.040 of water

00:19:42.660 rising,

00:19:43.760 you know,

00:19:44.680 during all

00:19:45.400 those years

00:19:45.940 working up

00:19:46.540 to this.

00:19:47.340 I mean,

00:19:47.620 we're not

00:19:48.020 at the

00:19:49.220 eight or

00:19:49.580 nine year

00:19:50.060 mark where

00:19:50.940 we're really

00:19:51.460 in trouble,

00:19:52.880 but any

00:19:53.820 moment now,

00:19:55.100 any moment

00:19:56.520 now,

00:19:56.840 those cities

00:19:57.360 are going to

00:19:57.640 be underwater,

00:19:58.460 according to

00:19:59.160 Bernie.

00:20:01.840 Well,

00:20:02.440 sure,

00:20:02.960 we can't

00:20:03.400 trust the

00:20:03.880 science,

00:20:04.440 and we

00:20:04.620 can't trust

00:20:05.180 the medical

00:20:05.760 textbooks,

00:20:06.680 and we

00:20:06.960 can't trust

00:20:07.480 the election

00:20:08.040 process,

00:20:09.640 but at

00:20:11.500 least we

00:20:12.620 can trust

00:20:13.260 a video.

00:20:14.700 Am I

00:20:15.040 right?

00:20:15.800 I may

00:20:16.200 see something

00:20:17.180 on video

00:20:17.880 that's

00:20:19.280 clearly,

00:20:20.800 wait,

00:20:21.160 what?

00:20:22.220 Oh,

00:20:23.000 yes,

00:20:23.380 there's a

00:20:23.800 story today,

00:20:24.940 the BBC

00:20:25.380 is reporting

00:20:26.040 that YouTube

00:20:26.700 is secretly

00:20:28.460 using an AI

00:20:29.420 process to

00:20:30.220 edit people's

00:20:31.120 videos without

00:20:32.580 asking for

00:20:33.560 permission or

00:20:34.360 telling them

00:20:34.860 that it's

00:20:35.220 happening.

00:20:36.100 Now,

00:20:36.600 it's not for

00:20:37.100 everybody,

00:20:37.780 so it's still

00:20:38.580 in beta,

00:20:39.560 but apparently

00:20:40.540 they're testing

00:20:41.580 out a

00:20:43.260 an AI

00:20:44.440 that will

00:20:45.200 clean up

00:20:46.180 the video.

00:20:47.320 That's the

00:20:47.740 idea of it.

00:20:48.480 So the

00:20:49.140 whole point

00:20:49.980 of it is

00:20:50.400 to just

00:20:50.780 make it

00:20:51.120 look better,

00:20:52.460 but because

00:20:53.380 it's AI,

00:20:54.620 it'll

00:20:55.000 distort your

00:20:56.480 ears and

00:20:57.380 maybe add

00:20:58.500 a finger

00:20:59.000 now and

00:20:59.440 then.

00:21:00.260 So some

00:21:01.440 people noticed

00:21:02.220 and they

00:21:02.800 didn't like

00:21:03.240 what they

00:21:03.600 saw,

00:21:04.000 but it's

00:21:04.200 only a

00:21:04.480 beta.

00:21:05.420 To me,

00:21:06.060 it makes

00:21:06.360 sense to

00:21:06.880 do that.

00:21:07.740 I'll tell

00:21:08.100 you the

00:21:08.340 thing I'd

00:21:08.740 really like

00:21:09.240 to see

00:21:09.840 YouTube

00:21:10.160 do is

00:21:12.120 automatically

00:21:13.040 improve the

00:21:14.140 sound to

00:21:15.180 studio sound

00:21:16.540 or to have

00:21:17.800 an option

00:21:18.420 that the

00:21:18.820 user can

00:21:19.480 select it

00:21:20.100 because you

00:21:20.580 might not

00:21:21.000 prefer that.

00:21:22.180 But they

00:21:22.520 have AIs

00:21:23.300 now that

00:21:24.600 if this

00:21:25.060 were recorded,

00:21:26.460 I could run

00:21:27.020 it through

00:21:27.300 the AI and

00:21:28.820 then when it's

00:21:29.340 done, it

00:21:29.660 would sound

00:21:30.000 like I had

00:21:30.540 a better

00:21:31.020 microphone and

00:21:32.660 better sound

00:21:33.320 control in

00:21:34.000 my studio.

00:21:35.300 So I've

00:21:36.560 done that a

00:21:37.040 few times.

00:21:37.920 So you've

00:21:38.320 heard, if

00:21:39.160 you've seen

00:21:39.880 some of the

00:21:40.360 replays, only

00:21:41.320 a few.

00:21:43.940 But seems

00:21:46.020 like it'd be

00:21:46.680 fun if you

00:21:47.500 could do it

00:21:47.860 in real time

00:21:48.580 so that the

00:21:49.400 user could

00:21:49.920 just say,

00:21:50.360 yeah, it

00:21:50.620 could be

00:21:50.800 the studio

00:21:51.340 sound.

00:21:53.040 Well, Alex

00:21:53.760 Jones is

00:21:54.420 teasing us

00:21:55.300 that there's

00:21:57.180 a whole bunch

00:21:58.200 of news that

00:21:59.080 will be coming

00:21:59.600 from the

00:22:00.120 Department of

00:22:00.700 Justice that's

00:22:01.940 big, big,

00:22:02.700 big, and he

00:22:04.160 personally knows

00:22:05.300 of a whole

00:22:06.300 bunch of

00:22:06.760 grand juries

00:22:07.440 that are

00:22:07.900 open.

00:22:09.340 Now, Alex

00:22:11.220 Jones has

00:22:11.820 good sources.

00:22:13.760 So when he

00:22:14.400 says it's

00:22:15.500 big, big,

00:22:16.480 big, as

00:22:17.080 in, I

00:22:17.940 guess, bigger

00:22:18.640 than we would

00:22:19.280 expect it to

00:22:20.020 be, would be

00:22:20.680 the way I

00:22:21.180 would interpret

00:22:21.680 that.

00:22:23.600 And we also

00:22:24.380 know that the

00:22:25.140 grand juries

00:22:26.040 can pretty much

00:22:27.940 indict anybody

00:22:29.020 for anything.

00:22:30.720 So it's

00:22:31.440 unlikely that

00:22:33.140 there would be

00:22:33.460 a lot of

00:22:33.840 grand juries

00:22:34.520 that come up

00:22:35.300 with, no,

00:22:35.940 I don't

00:22:36.400 think that

00:22:36.760 should go

00:22:37.180 to court.

00:22:38.060 That sort

00:22:38.640 of doesn't

00:22:39.060 happen.

00:22:40.300 So because

00:22:41.720 the grand

00:22:42.240 jury is not

00:22:43.320 actual evidence

00:22:44.380 and actual

00:22:45.020 proof or an

00:22:46.040 actual trial,

00:22:47.460 it's just an

00:22:49.260 argument that

00:22:50.080 there's enough

00:22:50.960 guilty-looking

00:22:52.340 stuff that it

00:22:54.060 would make

00:22:54.440 sense to take

00:22:55.580 it to trial.

00:22:56.040 So apparently

00:22:58.280 a good

00:23:00.520 lawyer can

00:23:01.180 get a grand

00:23:02.520 jury indictment

00:23:03.460 pretty much

00:23:04.400 every time,

00:23:05.460 if there's

00:23:06.020 anything to

00:23:06.800 it at all.

00:23:07.960 So we

00:23:08.420 should expect,

00:23:10.500 if Alex

00:23:11.560 Jones is

00:23:12.100 correct on

00:23:12.840 this, and

00:23:13.840 again, he's

00:23:14.400 got a sort

00:23:15.420 of impressive

00:23:15.980 track record on

00:23:17.080 things like

00:23:17.700 this, there

00:23:19.800 could be a

00:23:20.440 whole bunch

00:23:21.040 of, I don't

00:23:22.500 know if there'll

00:23:22.900 be arrests,

00:23:24.540 but there

00:23:24.920 could be a

00:23:25.640 whole bunch

00:23:26.480 of revenge

00:23:27.840 coming.

00:23:29.780 I've never

00:23:30.500 been so happy

00:23:31.340 about revenge.

00:23:33.260 Revenge just

00:23:34.060 seems like

00:23:34.520 something that

00:23:35.160 I would

00:23:35.620 automatically

00:23:36.320 want to

00:23:36.900 avoid, unless

00:23:39.200 it was something

00:23:40.180 personal, I

00:23:40.880 suppose.

00:23:41.420 But I wouldn't

00:23:41.960 want to see

00:23:42.400 other people

00:23:43.040 doing it.

00:23:44.180 But in this

00:23:44.820 case, I do.

00:23:45.540 As I told

00:23:46.080 you, you

00:23:46.780 have to have

00:23:47.220 mutually assured

00:23:48.120 destruction, or

00:23:49.880 else one side

00:23:50.900 will completely

00:23:51.660 dominate the

00:23:52.440 other.

00:23:52.900 And if you

00:23:53.720 don't activate

00:23:54.620 the mutually

00:23:55.220 assured

00:23:55.660 destruction, they're

00:23:57.500 just going to

00:23:58.000 do it again.

00:23:59.620 So they might

00:24:00.680 do it again

00:24:01.200 anyway, but at

00:24:02.560 least you've

00:24:02.940 got a chance

00:24:03.880 of teaching

00:24:05.640 people that if

00:24:06.740 you do it, we're

00:24:07.400 going to do it,

00:24:08.040 and there's no

00:24:08.620 way around it.

00:24:09.740 It's mutually

00:24:10.360 assured

00:24:10.940 destruction.

00:24:12.800 And so I

00:24:13.660 would be quite

00:24:14.320 happy if the

00:24:15.420 same people who

00:24:16.320 tried to law

00:24:17.160 fair Trump and

00:24:18.040 tried to remove

00:24:18.680 him from office

00:24:19.400 in a coup, I'd

00:24:21.040 be very happy if

00:24:22.120 he got his

00:24:22.440 revenge.

00:24:25.940 And more

00:24:29.840 the better.

00:24:30.660 I mean, I

00:24:30.980 don't even think

00:24:31.600 they should hold

00:24:32.180 back.

00:24:33.060 I feel like they

00:24:33.820 should be as

00:24:34.280 aggressive as I

00:24:35.160 want to, and I

00:24:36.600 feel like the

00:24:37.200 country is ready

00:24:38.160 for it.

00:24:38.760 One of the

00:24:39.180 things we

00:24:39.680 learned is that

00:24:42.160 short of an

00:24:43.100 organized, paid

00:24:44.200 protest, Americans

00:24:46.480 don't really care

00:24:47.480 about anything.

00:24:49.040 You can abuse

00:24:50.380 Americans like

00:24:51.140 crazy, and they

00:24:52.320 can even find out

00:24:53.360 you did it.

00:24:54.740 They'll just sort

00:24:55.440 of write an

00:24:57.460 angry post on

00:24:58.500 X and just go

00:24:59.500 on with their

00:24:59.920 day.

00:25:01.020 So if you

00:25:03.020 imagine that

00:25:04.880 there's something

00:25:05.380 that Trump can do

00:25:06.260 that will cause,

00:25:07.680 you know, an

00:25:08.380 uprising, I don't

00:25:09.940 know if there's

00:25:10.320 anything that

00:25:10.820 anybody can do

00:25:11.640 to cause an

00:25:12.220 uprising.

00:25:12.600 I mean, it

00:25:13.600 would have to

00:25:13.980 be so, so

00:25:15.880 out of line

00:25:17.640 before you

00:25:19.060 could actually

00:25:19.600 motivate people

00:25:20.640 to get off the

00:25:21.300 couch, in

00:25:22.200 America anyway,

00:25:23.480 that I feel

00:25:24.680 like Trump can

00:25:25.620 jail or indict

00:25:27.520 every one of

00:25:28.500 his enemies.

00:25:29.580 Because there's

00:25:30.480 real stuff there.

00:25:32.000 If he made up

00:25:33.140 stuff to jail

00:25:34.560 his enemies,

00:25:35.240 well, that would

00:25:35.720 be very bad.

00:25:37.020 But it looks

00:25:37.540 like there's just

00:25:38.160 plenty of real

00:25:38.920 stuff.

00:25:39.880 So more the

00:25:40.500 better.

00:25:40.740 But then

00:25:43.000 Alex Jones

00:25:43.820 says something

00:25:45.020 that I'm a

00:25:45.600 little less

00:25:46.180 inclined to

00:25:47.400 believe.

00:25:47.940 So I'm going

00:25:48.300 to bet against

00:25:49.140 this one.

00:25:50.540 But Alex

00:25:52.020 Jones says

00:25:52.660 that, I

00:25:53.880 hope I got

00:25:54.600 this right.

00:25:55.900 I'll apologize

00:25:56.920 to Alex if

00:25:58.260 I somehow read

00:25:59.180 something wrong.

00:26:00.360 But it looks

00:26:00.900 like my

00:26:02.200 reading of his

00:26:02.980 post is that

00:26:04.580 he said there

00:26:05.180 are 27 peer

00:26:06.540 reviewed doctors

00:26:07.600 stating that

00:26:08.920 100% of the

00:26:10.260 people who

00:26:10.720 are vaccinated

00:26:11.480 I guess with

00:26:12.180 the COVID

00:26:12.820 vaccination will

00:26:14.040 die by 2028

00:26:15.540 because of the

00:26:17.080 mRNA attack and

00:26:18.260 the vaccine.

00:26:19.880 So he's

00:26:21.560 predicting,

00:26:22.660 according to

00:26:23.260 these doctors,

00:26:24.980 that 300

00:26:27.340 million Americans

00:26:28.560 will be dead

00:26:29.660 in two years.

00:26:31.780 Does that

00:26:32.720 sound like

00:26:34.040 something that

00:26:34.720 might really

00:26:35.260 happen?

00:26:36.260 Well, first of

00:26:37.140 all, you know

00:26:37.680 that peer

00:26:38.580 reviewed doctors

00:26:39.440 means absolutely

00:26:40.380 nothing, right?

00:26:42.160 My audience

00:26:43.420 by now, you

00:26:44.560 all know,

00:26:45.580 peer review

00:26:46.180 is nothing.

00:26:48.700 It's just

00:26:49.120 nothing.

00:26:49.980 In fact,

00:26:51.080 peer review

00:26:51.880 means there's a

00:26:52.800 slightly greater

00:26:53.640 chance it's

00:26:54.380 fake than

00:26:55.680 real.

00:26:56.740 Let me say

00:26:57.600 that again.

00:26:59.100 In 2025,

00:27:01.100 there's more

00:27:02.260 bullshit studies

00:27:03.480 than there are

00:27:04.120 real ones.

00:27:05.160 You know,

00:27:05.400 more than half.

00:27:06.100 And that

00:27:08.220 means when

00:27:09.300 somebody says

00:27:09.980 something's

00:27:10.540 peer reviewed,

00:27:11.820 that should

00:27:13.140 indicate to

00:27:14.140 an educated

00:27:15.060 person that

00:27:16.420 is most

00:27:17.120 likely, not

00:27:18.460 guaranteed,

00:27:20.020 but most

00:27:20.620 likely fake.

00:27:21.980 Most likely.

00:27:23.360 As in more

00:27:24.040 than half.

00:27:26.360 So I'm not

00:27:27.840 impressed that

00:27:28.960 they're 27 of

00:27:30.140 them or that

00:27:30.840 they're peer

00:27:31.340 reviewed.

00:27:32.360 So those are

00:27:33.120 two things we

00:27:33.900 know don't tell

00:27:34.580 you anything,

00:27:35.780 that if

00:27:36.340 there's a

00:27:36.720 bunch of

00:27:37.100 experts on

00:27:37.840 the same

00:27:38.200 side,

00:27:39.120 means nothing.

00:27:40.600 In 2025,

00:27:41.700 we should all

00:27:42.200 understand.

00:27:42.760 That doesn't

00:27:43.120 mean anything.

00:27:43.980 It gives you

00:27:44.500 no comfort,

00:27:46.480 certainty,

00:27:47.280 confidence,

00:27:48.120 nothing.

00:27:49.020 It's like it

00:27:49.580 didn't even

00:27:49.940 happen.

00:27:50.780 It doesn't

00:27:51.080 matter how

00:27:51.480 many there

00:27:51.860 are.

00:27:53.380 Anyway,

00:27:56.080 how many

00:27:56.900 of you believe

00:27:57.440 that?

00:27:57.960 He also says

00:27:58.700 that we

00:27:59.660 also know

00:28:00.580 that around

00:28:01.780 70% of the

00:28:02.920 shots given

00:28:03.600 to humans

00:28:04.220 were just

00:28:04.660 salt water.

00:28:06.120 Okay.

00:28:07.680 What?

00:28:09.360 How many

00:28:10.180 of you believe

00:28:10.880 that 70%

00:28:11.820 of the COVID

00:28:12.420 shots were

00:28:13.580 just salt

00:28:14.460 water?

00:28:16.040 Okay,

00:28:16.440 I can't go

00:28:17.940 that far.

00:28:19.240 And he also

00:28:19.920 says insurance

00:28:21.120 company actuaries

00:28:22.700 show more than

00:28:23.860 30 million people

00:28:25.020 have been killed

00:28:25.620 by the COVID

00:28:27.020 shots so far.

00:28:28.960 Do you believe

00:28:30.000 that that's

00:28:30.540 true?

00:28:30.780 No.

00:28:35.120 I've certainly

00:28:35.960 never heard of

00:28:36.600 these 30 million

00:28:37.660 people that were

00:28:38.380 killed by this

00:28:39.140 shot.

00:28:39.600 I haven't heard

00:28:40.040 about that.

00:28:42.460 All right.

00:28:43.560 So,

00:28:44.440 moving on.

00:28:47.600 John Bolton,

00:28:49.900 as you know,

00:28:50.780 his house got

00:28:51.600 raided by the

00:28:53.500 FBI.

00:28:54.340 We don't know

00:28:54.960 exactly what his

00:28:56.180 alleged crimes

00:28:57.660 are, but

00:28:58.240 has something

00:28:58.800 to do with

00:29:00.360 confidential

00:29:01.340 documents.

00:29:02.920 Now, I'm

00:29:03.600 not even 100%

00:29:04.700 sure that's

00:29:05.620 true, but

00:29:06.920 that's the

00:29:07.940 emerging narrative

00:29:08.940 has something

00:29:09.680 to do with

00:29:10.260 some kind

00:29:11.320 of classified

00:29:12.160 documents.

00:29:13.840 But now

00:29:14.760 we're learning

00:29:15.720 that some,

00:29:18.740 according to

00:29:19.580 Carmine

00:29:20.940 Sabia, who 0.93

00:29:22.180 talked to a

00:29:22.860 bunch of

00:29:23.220 sources,

00:29:23.580 he said

00:29:25.460 that there

00:29:27.120 are going

00:29:27.340 to be a

00:29:27.680 lot of

00:29:28.000 people who

00:29:28.520 feel ridiculous

00:29:29.440 for what

00:29:30.480 they have

00:29:30.800 said to

00:29:31.280 defend John

00:29:32.340 Bolton after

00:29:33.520 they find out

00:29:34.340 what he did.

00:29:36.120 So,

00:29:37.240 Carmine is

00:29:39.140 telling us

00:29:39.800 that he's

00:29:41.220 got a little

00:29:41.680 insight into

00:29:42.880 what the

00:29:43.240 allegations are,

00:29:44.620 and that once

00:29:45.260 we hear it,

00:29:46.060 we're going to

00:29:46.420 say, whoa,

00:29:48.000 that's a lot

00:29:48.600 worse than I

00:29:49.160 thought it

00:29:49.480 was.

00:29:50.580 Maybe.

00:29:51.760 We'll see.

00:29:53.580 But now

00:29:56.580 there's some

00:29:57.300 allegations that

00:29:58.260 he may have

00:29:58.780 emailed some

00:29:59.840 classified documents

00:30:01.040 to his family

00:30:02.120 members, which

00:30:03.960 would be

00:30:04.660 illegal.

00:30:07.180 And then we

00:30:07.820 have the

00:30:08.200 mystery of

00:30:09.760 why the

00:30:10.140 Biden

00:30:10.540 administration,

00:30:11.620 which apparently

00:30:12.100 was aware of

00:30:13.240 these allegations,

00:30:14.640 but decided not

00:30:15.740 to follow up

00:30:16.520 on it.

00:30:17.540 And the

00:30:18.300 suspicion,

00:30:20.120 unproven,

00:30:21.160 is that the

00:30:21.740 reason Biden

00:30:22.440 would not

00:30:23.000 follow up on

00:30:23.720 it for his

00:30:24.340 administration,

00:30:25.580 is that

00:30:25.920 Bolden was

00:30:26.500 such a

00:30:27.120 critic of

00:30:29.220 Trump.

00:30:30.260 So,

00:30:30.900 if you're a

00:30:31.540 critic of

00:30:32.080 Trump,

00:30:33.520 they want you

00:30:34.220 to get some

00:30:34.640 airtime and

00:30:35.360 not go to

00:30:36.000 jail.

00:30:36.540 That's what

00:30:37.020 they say.

00:30:37.960 I don't know,

00:30:38.360 there might have

00:30:38.700 been other

00:30:39.000 reasons.

00:30:42.560 So,

00:30:43.280 Mike Benz is

00:30:44.720 saying on X,

00:30:46.140 he goes,

00:30:46.660 so,

00:30:47.180 the official

00:30:47.760 explanation for

00:30:48.800 why the IRS

00:30:49.820 let the Clinton 0.91

00:30:51.080 foundation off

00:30:52.000 the hook

00:30:52.400 was that the

00:30:53.380 fraud was so

00:30:54.200 monstrously huge

00:30:55.300 it was too

00:30:55.900 big for the

00:30:56.480 IRS to

00:30:57.060 take on.

00:30:58.900 Now,

00:30:59.460 that's a

00:31:02.180 true summary

00:31:03.480 that's written

00:31:05.080 as much for

00:31:06.600 the hubris

00:31:07.620 impact.

00:31:10.920 But here's,

00:31:13.420 we don't

00:31:15.500 know,

00:31:15.920 we don't

00:31:16.420 know exactly

00:31:17.220 what the

00:31:18.240 IRS was 0.90

00:31:18.920 really

00:31:19.200 thinking.

00:31:19.940 We do

00:31:20.380 know that

00:31:20.860 they said

00:31:21.380 something like

00:31:22.400 they didn't

00:31:23.320 have the

00:31:23.660 resources to

00:31:24.640 go after

00:31:25.120 it.

00:31:26.480 So,

00:31:27.500 I guess

00:31:28.420 Mike Benz's

00:31:29.780 summary of

00:31:30.660 it is

00:31:31.400 accurate,

00:31:32.320 given what

00:31:33.240 we know.

00:31:34.620 But IRS

00:31:35.480 may have more

00:31:36.160 to say about

00:31:36.680 that.

00:31:37.560 But they

00:31:37.960 did,

00:31:38.420 in fact,

00:31:39.400 indicate that

00:31:40.240 they didn't

00:31:40.560 have the

00:31:40.840 resources to

00:31:41.660 go after

00:31:42.140 it,

00:31:42.780 which doesn't

00:31:43.400 even sound

00:31:43.940 like a real

00:31:44.620 thing,

00:31:45.040 does it?

00:31:46.240 That doesn't

00:31:46.840 sound real.

00:31:47.440 if it's

00:31:49.200 the biggest

00:31:49.820 thing,

00:31:50.740 that would

00:31:51.480 be the

00:31:51.820 thing that

00:31:52.160 got the

00:31:52.600 resources.

00:31:53.880 If it was

00:31:54.620 big and

00:31:55.060 important,

00:31:56.020 then that

00:31:56.360 would be

00:31:56.680 very big

00:31:57.320 and very

00:31:58.200 important.

00:31:59.300 So,

00:31:59.800 it would be

00:32:00.300 the other

00:32:00.960 things that

00:32:01.600 didn't get

00:32:02.040 resources.

00:32:03.600 They don't

00:32:04.320 say,

00:32:04.700 yeah,

00:32:04.920 we'd love

00:32:05.380 to do the

00:32:05.960 biggest,

00:32:06.380 most important

00:32:07.020 thing,

00:32:07.960 but we

00:32:08.460 used all

00:32:08.940 our resources

00:32:09.920 for all

00:32:10.280 being used

00:32:10.720 for lesser

00:32:11.180 important

00:32:11.600 things.

00:32:13.020 Yeah.

00:32:13.360 more to

00:32:16.700 learn about

00:32:17.160 that one.

00:32:21.240 Did you

00:32:21.820 lock the

00:32:22.100 front door?

00:32:22.620 Check.

00:32:23.180 Close the

00:32:23.640 garage door?

00:32:24.340 Yep.

00:32:27.720 vision?

00:32:28.340 No.

00:32:29.160 And you

00:32:29.500 set up

00:32:33.780 our personal

00:32:34.120 info on the

00:32:34.560 dark web?

00:32:36.360 I'm looking

00:32:37.160 into it.

00:32:49.820 So,

00:32:50.500 Gavin Newsom,

00:32:52.080 as you know,

00:32:52.580 he's doing

00:32:52.920 these mocking

00:32:53.920 social media

00:32:54.900 posts,

00:32:55.660 making fun

00:32:56.160 of the way

00:32:56.580 Trump does

00:32:57.720 his social

00:32:58.280 media,

00:32:59.020 so he's

00:32:59.320 trying to,

00:33:00.420 you know,

00:33:00.660 he is

00:33:01.020 successfully,

00:33:01.960 probably with

00:33:02.660 some help,

00:33:03.380 writing it,

00:33:04.900 mocked Trump

00:33:06.700 and amused

00:33:07.620 people and

00:33:08.380 got attention

00:33:09.000 and he got

00:33:10.260 some fundraising

00:33:11.120 so it

00:33:12.780 looks like

00:33:13.200 a success.

00:33:14.660 However,

00:33:15.760 I'd like to

00:33:17.140 make a

00:33:17.460 prediction.

00:33:20.020 It's only

00:33:20.920 one joke.

00:33:23.000 Now,

00:33:24.020 there's one

00:33:24.540 joke that's

00:33:25.280 well extended,

00:33:26.840 you know,

00:33:27.160 all the

00:33:27.780 different ways

00:33:28.840 that they do

00:33:29.380 it are kind

00:33:29.800 of clever,

00:33:31.060 you know,

00:33:31.260 making fun

00:33:31.780 of Trump's

00:33:32.360 writing style,

00:33:33.760 but it's

00:33:35.320 still one

00:33:35.940 joke.

00:33:36.420 and how

00:33:38.560 often can

00:33:39.820 you push

00:33:40.400 one joke?

00:33:42.320 Well,

00:33:42.920 I'm going

00:33:43.320 to call

00:33:43.740 it.

00:33:44.800 It is

00:33:45.200 now

00:33:45.720 overdone.

00:33:48.640 I don't

00:33:49.440 think people

00:33:50.080 are reading

00:33:50.560 the new

00:33:51.040 ones the

00:33:51.660 way they

00:33:52.040 read the

00:33:52.760 first ones.

00:33:54.100 So today,

00:33:54.700 for example,

00:33:55.560 I saw there

00:33:56.140 was a new

00:33:56.540 one,

00:33:56.900 it was this

00:33:57.280 big wall

00:33:57.920 of text

00:33:58.520 in all

00:33:59.360 caps that's

00:34:01.000 going to

00:34:01.480 mock Trump.

00:34:02.080 the first

00:34:03.340 two or

00:34:04.280 three that

00:34:04.800 I saw,

00:34:05.760 I thought,

00:34:06.820 oh,

00:34:06.960 this will

00:34:07.280 be fun,

00:34:07.780 and I

00:34:08.020 read them,

00:34:08.920 and I

00:34:09.260 thought,

00:34:09.600 oh,

00:34:09.940 they're

00:34:10.140 actually

00:34:10.540 well executed,

00:34:11.940 you know,

00:34:12.200 pretty clever

00:34:13.360 mockery.

00:34:14.620 But today,

00:34:15.640 I see another

00:34:17.040 one,

00:34:17.460 and I think

00:34:17.940 to myself,

00:34:18.580 I feel like

00:34:20.200 I've already

00:34:20.600 seen it.

00:34:21.620 Not this

00:34:22.140 specific one,

00:34:23.820 but it's

00:34:24.200 a damn

00:34:24.880 joke,

00:34:25.960 right?

00:34:26.640 You know,

00:34:27.320 there are

00:34:27.580 some TV

00:34:28.200 shows that

00:34:29.160 are so

00:34:29.500 formulaic,

00:34:30.380 like a

00:34:32.040 TV series

00:34:32.860 that you

00:34:33.700 know exactly

00:34:34.360 what's going

00:34:34.840 to happen.

00:34:35.360 It's like,

00:34:35.660 oh,

00:34:35.920 here's the

00:34:36.300 person who

00:34:36.680 gets murdered.

00:34:37.820 Oh,

00:34:38.260 here's the

00:34:39.000 Ark.

00:34:40.520 So,

00:34:42.320 my prediction

00:34:44.800 is this.

00:34:46.600 Newsom has

00:34:47.280 tried a

00:34:47.980 whole bunch

00:34:48.520 of different

00:34:48.940 things.

00:34:49.980 This just

00:34:50.500 happened to

00:34:50.900 be something

00:34:51.360 that worked.

00:34:52.780 So,

00:34:53.100 if you

00:34:53.520 believe that

00:34:54.500 this thing

00:34:55.020 is now an

00:34:55.540 indication that

00:34:56.460 he can do

00:34:57.080 powerful things

00:34:58.060 and get

00:34:58.380 attention and

00:34:59.040 make an

00:34:59.380 impact,

00:34:59.760 nope.

00:35:02.520 The only

00:35:03.340 evidence we

00:35:04.020 have is

00:35:05.000 that he

00:35:05.320 flailed

00:35:05.880 around trying

00:35:06.800 thing after

00:35:07.340 thing after

00:35:07.880 thing and

00:35:08.940 then he

00:35:09.220 found one

00:35:09.820 thing that

00:35:10.300 went viral.

00:35:12.360 That's all

00:35:13.000 we know.

00:35:14.160 It's not

00:35:14.560 like he

00:35:14.940 learned how

00:35:15.660 to be

00:35:15.920 viral.

00:35:17.020 He got

00:35:17.400 this one

00:35:17.960 thing,

00:35:18.580 one joke

00:35:19.400 that he's

00:35:20.340 just repeating

00:35:20.980 over and

00:35:21.440 over until

00:35:21.900 we're already

00:35:22.360 sick of it.

00:35:23.980 And like I

00:35:24.580 said before,

00:35:25.440 he's mocking

00:35:26.300 Trump for

00:35:27.780 something that

00:35:28.420 Trump does

00:35:28.940 better than

00:35:29.500 anybody's

00:35:30.080 ever done

00:35:30.500 anything,

00:35:31.320 which is

00:35:31.780 communicating to

00:35:32.840 the masses

00:35:33.360 in a way

00:35:34.160 that gets

00:35:34.520 attention and

00:35:35.340 you can't

00:35:35.900 ignore.

00:35:36.900 So,

00:35:37.620 it'd be one

00:35:38.220 thing if he

00:35:38.780 were mocking

00:35:39.400 something Trump

00:35:40.380 did poorly,

00:35:41.860 but you can't

00:35:43.320 get much

00:35:43.780 traction mocking

00:35:44.940 something where

00:35:45.900 he's the best

00:35:46.680 who ever

00:35:47.300 lived.

00:35:49.540 What are you

00:35:50.280 going to do

00:35:50.580 with that?

00:35:51.720 It's not

00:35:52.180 exactly,

00:35:52.760 you know,

00:35:54.020 destroying his

00:35:54.960 reputation.

00:35:56.480 So,

00:35:57.120 I don't

00:35:57.400 know.

00:35:58.820 So,

00:35:59.460 my prediction

00:36:00.080 is that

00:36:00.920 that was a

00:36:02.180 fluke.

00:36:03.520 They just

00:36:04.140 tried a lot

00:36:04.700 of things.

00:36:05.300 They hit this

00:36:05.820 little nugget,

00:36:07.180 but they

00:36:07.460 can't ride

00:36:07.940 that one

00:36:09.860 little trick,

00:36:11.180 that one

00:36:11.580 joke forever.

00:36:12.360 They're going

00:36:12.600 to have to

00:36:12.840 do new

00:36:13.260 stuff.

00:36:14.340 What are

00:36:14.740 the odds

00:36:15.180 that the

00:36:15.520 next thing

00:36:16.000 they do

00:36:16.340 is another

00:36:16.780 home run?

00:36:18.020 Almost

00:36:18.500 zero.

00:36:20.080 Like one

00:36:20.760 percent,

00:36:21.280 maybe.

00:36:21.480 All right.

00:36:24.840 Remember

00:36:25.200 the other

00:36:26.080 day I

00:36:26.520 said I

00:36:27.600 couldn't

00:36:28.080 tell from

00:36:28.460 the news

00:36:28.980 if we

00:36:29.380 had a

00:36:29.960 trade deal

00:36:30.640 with the

00:36:31.000 EU or

00:36:32.280 if it

00:36:32.600 was stuck

00:36:33.500 over the

00:36:34.380 issue of

00:36:35.120 speech,

00:36:36.020 you know,

00:36:36.200 digital

00:36:36.600 speech,

00:36:37.540 because

00:36:38.580 Europe

00:36:39.600 would like

00:36:40.040 to put

00:36:41.880 limits on

00:36:42.820 Americans

00:36:43.760 and their

00:36:44.640 speech if

00:36:45.640 it goes

00:36:46.020 through

00:36:46.400 digital

00:36:47.140 platforms

00:36:47.700 that run

00:36:48.200 in their

00:36:48.520 country,

00:36:49.040 and of

00:36:49.440 course they

00:36:49.760 all do.

00:36:50.160 And the

00:36:51.660 U.S.

00:36:52.020 says,

00:36:52.460 no,

00:36:52.720 you can't

00:36:54.600 suppress the

00:36:55.400 United States,

00:36:56.920 so you're

00:36:57.840 going to

00:36:57.940 have to

00:36:58.160 leave our

00:36:58.700 digital

00:36:59.080 platforms

00:36:59.680 alone,

00:37:00.520 and apparently

00:37:01.820 that's an

00:37:02.420 unsolved

00:37:03.000 problem,

00:37:03.600 so we do

00:37:04.080 not have

00:37:04.700 an EU

00:37:05.680 trade deal.

00:37:08.040 So they

00:37:09.040 refused to

00:37:09.940 budge,

00:37:10.340 and I

00:37:10.600 think we

00:37:11.040 refused to

00:37:11.800 budge.

00:37:12.780 So we'll

00:37:15.120 see.

00:37:15.600 Does that

00:37:16.140 mean that

00:37:16.560 Trump will

00:37:17.060 just leave

00:37:17.580 the whatever

00:37:18.920 tariffs in

00:37:19.700 place?

00:37:20.160 And just

00:37:20.640 say,

00:37:21.240 well,

00:37:21.460 take your

00:37:21.840 time.

00:37:22.960 In the

00:37:23.440 meantime,

00:37:24.420 we've got

00:37:24.680 massive

00:37:25.060 tariffs on

00:37:25.740 your European

00:37:26.420 stuff,

00:37:27.520 but take

00:37:28.200 all the

00:37:28.500 time you

00:37:28.860 want,

00:37:29.400 because that's

00:37:29.800 what he's

00:37:30.120 doing with

00:37:30.620 China.

00:37:31.520 He's basically

00:37:32.060 saying,

00:37:32.900 yeah, we'd

00:37:33.720 love to have

00:37:34.060 a great

00:37:34.500 trade deal,

00:37:35.300 but take

00:37:35.960 all the

00:37:36.240 time you

00:37:36.580 want.

00:37:37.040 We're

00:37:37.300 happy to

00:37:37.960 just tariff

00:37:39.400 you until

00:37:40.060 we get

00:37:40.920 everything we

00:37:41.480 want.

00:37:41.760 I will

00:37:45.160 remind you

00:37:45.920 that the

00:37:46.760 other day

00:37:47.280 when I

00:37:48.140 said on

00:37:48.820 X that

00:37:50.420 I thought

00:37:50.760 Trump was

00:37:51.360 going to

00:37:51.620 go after

00:37:52.000 the Russian

00:37:52.780 economy and

00:37:53.940 tank their

00:37:54.480 economy,

00:37:55.320 all the

00:37:56.080 smart people

00:37:56.960 fled,

00:37:58.100 came into

00:37:58.520 my comments

00:37:59.460 and said,

00:38:00.300 Scott,

00:38:01.060 you fool,

00:38:02.760 you fool,

00:38:04.160 stick to

00:38:04.660 cartooning.

00:38:05.580 You know

00:38:06.220 nothing about

00:38:06.900 economics,

00:38:07.540 despite your

00:38:09.060 economics degree

00:38:10.040 and your

00:38:10.480 MBA from

00:38:11.100 Berkeley.

00:38:11.800 You know

00:38:12.320 nothing about

00:38:12.920 economics and

00:38:14.260 you know

00:38:14.620 nothing about

00:38:15.200 the Ukraine

00:38:15.760 war and

00:38:16.280 nothing about

00:38:17.080 Putin and

00:38:19.100 you should

00:38:19.600 be reading

00:38:20.460 Mearsheimer

00:38:21.340 and some

00:38:22.020 other people,

00:38:22.960 which of

00:38:23.420 course I

00:38:23.780 have.

00:38:25.620 So people

00:38:26.280 were quite

00:38:26.980 sure that

00:38:28.260 the idea of

00:38:28.980 Trump destroying

00:38:30.120 the Russian

00:38:30.620 economy was

00:38:31.780 completely

00:38:32.340 nonsense.

00:38:34.260 And now we

00:38:34.980 learned that

00:38:35.640 Ukraine has 0.72

00:38:36.740 been

00:38:37.120 focusing on

00:38:38.840 the energy

00:38:39.620 resources in

00:38:40.880 Russia.

00:38:41.760 So they've

00:38:42.220 been sending

00:38:42.740 drones after

00:38:44.120 their refineries,

00:38:45.400 et cetera.

00:38:46.800 Reportedly,

00:38:47.660 and this is on

00:38:48.340 social media,

00:38:49.360 so I don't

00:38:49.780 know how

00:38:51.100 much you can

00:38:51.600 trust it,

00:38:52.440 but reportedly

00:38:53.140 they've already

00:38:53.780 knocked out

00:38:54.500 enough of

00:38:55.320 Russia's oil

00:38:57.180 producing

00:38:57.720 infrastructure.

00:38:58.720 They've gone

00:38:59.160 after pipelines

00:39:00.000 a few times,

00:39:00.840 they've gone

00:39:01.160 after refineries,

00:39:02.660 that there's a

00:39:04.200 shortage of gas

00:39:05.240 in Russia.

00:39:07.120 and that there

00:39:07.600 are long

00:39:08.020 lines waiting

00:39:08.780 for gas.

00:39:09.880 Now that

00:39:10.260 part, I'm

00:39:11.660 not ready to

00:39:13.100 believe the

00:39:14.180 reports yet.

00:39:16.040 Could be.

00:39:17.740 And there's

00:39:18.640 a report that

00:39:19.500 they got 10%

00:39:22.120 of the refineries

00:39:23.120 offline,

00:39:24.840 and that there's

00:39:27.460 a fuel crisis.

00:39:29.020 Now, if in

00:39:30.520 fact, Ukraine

00:39:31.780 continues to

00:39:32.700 focus on the

00:39:33.620 energy resources

00:39:35.100 in Russia,

00:39:36.440 whether or

00:39:37.100 not Ukraine

00:39:37.800 wins the

00:39:38.400 war,

00:39:39.640 would you

00:39:40.240 not,

00:39:40.800 you know,

00:39:41.620 winning the

00:39:42.160 war seems

00:39:42.580 unlikely,

00:39:43.660 but would

00:39:44.420 you agree

00:39:45.020 that they

00:39:46.320 would only

00:39:46.800 be doing

00:39:47.260 that if

00:39:48.160 Trump was

00:39:50.100 on board

00:39:50.580 with it?

00:39:51.980 And would

00:39:52.700 you agree

00:39:53.300 that they

00:39:54.220 wouldn't have

00:39:54.660 to destroy

00:39:55.300 all of their

00:39:56.320 refineries and

00:39:57.220 pipelines,

00:39:57.700 lines,

00:39:58.440 but somewhere

00:39:59.260 around 20%,

00:40:01.360 and they're

00:40:02.340 already halfway

00:40:02.960 to 20%,

00:40:04.020 somewhere around

00:40:05.260 20%,

00:40:06.100 the whole

00:40:07.140 country changes

00:40:08.760 because, you

00:40:10.460 know, it would

00:40:10.820 give them

00:40:11.140 budget problems,

00:40:12.300 and there

00:40:13.000 really would be

00:40:13.940 a shortage,

00:40:14.920 and people

00:40:15.500 really would

00:40:16.000 have to line

00:40:16.540 up for gas,

00:40:17.480 at around

00:40:17.860 20%,

00:40:18.620 probably.

00:40:21.420 So, but

00:40:22.680 we also have

00:40:24.260 reports that

00:40:25.820 Trump has

00:40:26.620 blocked

00:40:27.420 Ukraine from

00:40:28.440 using the

00:40:29.020 best American

00:40:29.980 missile,

00:40:31.540 the Atom

00:40:32.960 At-X,

00:40:34.620 or whatever,

00:40:35.000 I forget what

00:40:35.500 they're called,

00:40:36.220 but they're

00:40:36.740 really good

00:40:38.280 missiles that

00:40:39.160 can have

00:40:39.600 gigantic

00:40:40.200 payloads and

00:40:41.240 stuff,

00:40:41.880 and they

00:40:42.080 could attack

00:40:42.960 deep inside

00:40:44.140 Russian territory.

00:40:46.640 But apparently

00:40:47.260 Ukraine doesn't 0.98

00:40:48.480 need those

00:40:49.440 most modern

00:40:50.660 weapons because

00:40:51.880 they're already

00:40:52.560 attacking these

00:40:53.460 resources with

00:40:54.800 some level of

00:40:55.520 success, I

00:40:56.520 guess, using

00:40:57.000 drones.

00:40:59.920 So there it

00:41:00.800 is.

00:41:03.160 And Russia

00:41:04.140 is also

00:41:04.760 attacking Ukraine's 0.99

00:41:07.140 energy structure,

00:41:08.320 but I think

00:41:08.700 they've been

00:41:09.020 doing that since

00:41:09.660 the start.

00:41:13.540 So, and

00:41:15.800 then there's a

00:41:16.280 report in

00:41:16.900 Zero Hedge

00:41:17.640 is talking about

00:41:18.300 this, that

00:41:19.320 Putin allegedly

00:41:20.700 vetoed a plan

00:41:21.980 to send a

00:41:22.820 hypersonic missile

00:41:23.840 into Zelensky's

00:41:25.680 office.

00:41:27.740 That's

00:41:28.300 according to

00:41:28.860 the Belarusian

00:41:30.120 president.

00:41:30.840 So I guess we

00:41:31.340 can't trust any

00:41:32.100 of that, really.

00:41:34.120 I guess the

00:41:35.080 credibility of

00:41:35.940 that kind of

00:41:36.340 reporting is

00:41:36.940 zero.

00:41:39.480 So, if it's

00:41:41.260 true that

00:41:42.460 Ukraine has 0.72

00:41:43.200 decided to

00:41:43.800 focus on

00:41:44.560 Russia's 0.70

00:41:45.080 energy

00:41:45.800 infrastructure,

00:41:46.660 infrastructure, do

00:41:47.860 you believe that

00:41:48.600 they wouldn't be

00:41:49.160 able to take

00:41:51.540 down Russia's 0.92

00:41:52.320 economy?

00:41:53.660 I feel like they

00:41:54.860 could put a

00:41:55.400 pretty big dent

00:41:56.060 to it.

00:41:57.980 So, as you

00:41:59.560 know, the U.S.

00:42:00.780 has hired its

00:42:02.500 first chief

00:42:03.760 design officer.

00:42:04.880 And, uh, it's

00:42:07.740 one of the

00:42:08.420 co-founders of

00:42:09.720 Airbnb.

00:42:10.780 So, I guess he

00:42:11.680 worked on

00:42:12.160 Doge, and so

00:42:13.840 he's, he's got a

00:42:14.980 little history of

00:42:15.640 trying to help

00:42:16.100 the government.

00:42:17.360 And, uh, now

00:42:18.580 he's going to

00:42:19.700 try to make

00:42:20.780 interacting with

00:42:21.880 the government

00:42:22.480 as, quote,

00:42:24.080 satisfying to

00:42:25.120 use as the

00:42:25.900 Apple store.

00:42:26.740 Beautifully

00:42:27.160 designed, great

00:42:28.020 user experience,

00:42:29.380 and run on

00:42:30.040 modern software.

00:42:32.140 Wouldn't that

00:42:32.720 be amazing?

00:42:33.320 Can you

00:42:35.180 imagine, uh, if

00:42:37.280 dealing with a

00:42:37.980 government were

00:42:38.660 easy?

00:42:40.540 It feels

00:42:41.520 impossible, but

00:42:42.540 good luck to

00:42:43.800 him.

00:42:46.020 Well, apparently

00:42:47.060 the Pentagon

00:42:49.020 is going to

00:42:49.940 send troops

00:42:50.780 into Chicago

00:42:52.440 next.

00:42:53.340 As you know,

00:42:54.080 they've already,

00:42:55.400 um, well, at

00:42:57.280 least the

00:42:57.840 troops, but I

00:43:00.460 think they mean

00:43:01.000 National Guard,

00:43:01.780 right?

00:43:02.360 Troops.

00:43:03.320 I don't think

00:43:05.580 they mean any

00:43:06.220 other, but

00:43:07.200 maybe.

00:43:08.000 Anyway, the

00:43:08.520 Washington Post

00:43:09.440 is reporting

00:43:09.980 that Chicago's

00:43:10.800 next, and, uh,

00:43:13.120 Governor

00:43:14.040 Pritzker, um,

00:43:16.860 says that, uh,

00:43:17.760 Trump's threat

00:43:18.440 to bring the

00:43:18.980 National Guard

00:43:19.500 to Chicago isn't

00:43:20.980 about safety.

00:43:22.320 It's a test of

00:43:23.300 the limits of

00:43:24.000 his power and

00:43:25.220 a trial run for

00:43:26.420 a police state.

00:43:28.420 Illinois has

00:43:29.080 long worked with

00:43:29.860 federal law

00:43:30.480 enforcement to

00:43:31.120 tackle crime,

00:43:31.860 but we won't

00:43:32.780 let a dictator

00:43:33.680 impose his

00:43:34.560 will.

00:43:37.320 Does that

00:43:38.260 sound like

00:43:38.900 what's happening

00:43:39.540 to you?

00:43:41.320 Does this look

00:43:42.420 like a clever

00:43:43.480 Trump plot

00:43:45.480 to, uh,

00:43:47.340 take over the

00:43:48.040 country and be

00:43:48.680 a dictator?

00:43:51.180 Or does it

00:43:52.620 look to you

00:43:53.280 like he's

00:43:54.520 doing very

00:43:55.180 popular things

00:43:56.260 that people

00:43:56.880 want, as in

00:43:58.300 clamping down

00:43:59.620 on crime in

00:44:00.280 our highest

00:44:00.700 crime areas?

00:44:02.620 I don't know.

00:44:03.940 Uh, it

00:44:05.260 looks to me

00:44:06.140 like, uh, the

00:44:07.260 Democrats are

00:44:08.420 once again

00:44:09.120 very concerned

00:44:10.480 about imaginary

00:44:11.320 things.

00:44:12.260 Well, it's

00:44:13.660 not that I

00:44:14.400 oppose him

00:44:15.500 putting resources

00:44:16.640 towards stopping

00:44:17.480 crime.

00:44:18.360 It's that I

00:44:19.500 imagine, in

00:44:21.120 my imagination,

00:44:22.880 that it's just

00:44:23.460 part of his

00:44:24.240 beginning plot

00:44:25.120 to take over

00:44:26.100 the country and

00:44:26.960 become a

00:44:27.360 dictator for

00:44:28.000 life.

00:44:28.440 I tell

00:44:30.900 you, once

00:44:32.580 you realize

00:44:33.240 the Democrats

00:44:34.000 are almost

00:44:34.720 entirely consumed

00:44:36.160 with worrying

00:44:37.520 about imaginary

00:44:38.360 shit, it's

00:44:41.460 sort of the

00:44:42.100 frame that

00:44:42.560 makes everything

00:44:43.140 make sense.

00:44:44.380 He's going to

00:44:44.920 take our

00:44:45.340 democracy.

00:44:46.760 Really?

00:44:47.780 Is he?

00:44:48.740 Or is he just

00:44:49.640 going to make

00:44:50.120 your, uh,

00:44:51.200 toilets have

00:44:51.960 more flow so

00:44:52.880 the turd

00:44:53.280 goes down?

00:44:54.480 Well, what's

00:44:54.880 he going to

00:44:55.220 do?

00:44:55.560 What is more

00:44:56.300 likely?

00:44:57.140 Steal your

00:44:57.680 democracy?

00:44:58.440 Or let

00:44:59.340 you use

00:44:59.960 plastic straws

00:45:01.340 again?

00:45:02.120 What is he

00:45:03.020 more likely

00:45:03.620 to do?

00:45:05.580 He's going to

00:45:06.440 steal my

00:45:06.920 democracy.

00:45:10.600 All right,

00:45:11.560 Byron York

00:45:12.420 is laughing at

00:45:13.360 the Washington

00:45:14.360 Post.

00:45:16.180 They've got an

00:45:17.120 editorial in

00:45:18.480 which they

00:45:18.960 show deep

00:45:19.540 concern for

00:45:20.380 the politicization

00:45:22.620 of justice.

00:45:24.620 And as

00:45:25.580 Byron York

00:45:26.220 points out,

00:45:27.340 given the

00:45:27.780 events of

00:45:28.560 2017 to

00:45:29.820 2024, that's

00:45:31.240 the whole

00:45:31.560 Russia collusion

00:45:32.500 hoax period,

00:45:33.980 this is a

00:45:34.740 darkly funny

00:45:35.620 paragraph.

00:45:38.400 And the

00:45:40.400 Washington Post

00:45:41.140 says that

00:45:41.760 going after

00:45:42.380 John Bolton

00:45:43.200 is a fresh

00:45:44.720 instance of

00:45:45.540 the old

00:45:45.920 Soviet saying,

00:45:47.140 show me the

00:45:47.920 man and I'll

00:45:48.640 show you the

00:45:49.320 crime.

00:45:49.740 does it

00:45:51.680 sound like

00:45:52.280 they just

00:45:53.840 decided to

00:45:54.560 figure out

00:45:55.160 what John

00:45:56.540 Bolton did

00:45:57.080 wrong?

00:45:57.840 Or does it

00:45:58.760 sound like

00:45:59.300 there was a

00:46:00.220 lot of

00:46:00.500 evidence that

00:46:01.100 he was doing

00:46:01.520 some stuff

00:46:02.040 wrong and

00:46:02.440 they finally

00:46:02.840 decided to

00:46:03.460 act on it?

00:46:05.680 The fact

00:46:06.820 that this

00:46:07.580 old show

00:46:09.000 me the

00:46:09.340 man and

00:46:09.740 I'll show

00:46:10.060 you the

00:46:10.340 crime can

00:46:11.880 be used by

00:46:12.680 both sides

00:46:13.420 whenever they

00:46:13.980 want, kind

00:46:15.380 of makes the

00:46:15.780 whole thing

00:46:16.180 be sort of

00:46:17.760 stupid. 0.90

00:46:18.120 Now, I

00:46:19.480 get what it

00:46:19.920 means, and

00:46:20.600 in some

00:46:21.260 cases, like

00:46:22.160 the law

00:46:22.600 fair against

00:46:23.180 Trump, it

00:46:24.220 was clearly

00:46:25.200 the right

00:46:25.820 saying and

00:46:26.900 the right

00:46:27.240 idea that

00:46:28.080 they were

00:46:28.320 picking the

00:46:28.840 person, and

00:46:29.800 Letitia James

00:46:30.720 said it as

00:46:31.780 directly as

00:46:32.480 she can, that

00:46:33.800 she was going

00:46:34.420 to go after

00:46:35.040 Trump, and

00:46:35.860 she didn't

00:46:36.220 have anything

00:46:36.720 to go after

00:46:37.320 yet.

00:46:38.140 She was going

00:46:38.640 to look for

00:46:39.200 a problem.

00:46:40.320 But do you

00:46:40.860 think that's

00:46:41.380 what happened

00:46:41.820 with Bolton?

00:46:43.040 Do you really

00:46:43.900 believe that they

00:46:44.640 said, all right,

00:46:45.620 Bolton's a pain

00:46:46.400 in the ass, let's 0.96

00:46:47.820 go dig

00:46:48.340 around and

00:46:49.040 see if we

00:46:50.040 can find

00:46:50.440 something to

00:46:51.080 get him in

00:46:51.520 trouble?

00:46:52.600 Maybe.

00:46:54.080 Maybe.

00:46:55.720 But I'll

00:46:57.860 wait to see

00:46:58.520 the indictments,

00:46:59.800 or wait for

00:47:00.760 the trial, I

00:47:01.340 guess, because

00:47:02.060 we've got to

00:47:02.480 find out what

00:47:03.160 it is he's

00:47:03.660 being accused

00:47:04.380 of, and who

00:47:05.220 knew, and who

00:47:06.040 reported it, and

00:47:06.980 all that stuff.

00:47:09.660 Well, the

00:47:10.300 University of

00:47:11.080 Wisconsin Medical

00:47:12.280 School admits

00:47:14.580 black students

00:47:15.500 at six times

00:47:16.580 the rate of

00:47:17.120 Asians, according

00:47:18.120 to Liberty

00:47:18.900 University, he's

00:47:19.900 writing about

00:47:20.400 this, and

00:47:23.600 they do that

00:47:24.900 despite the

00:47:26.020 lower average

00:47:27.380 MCAT scores

00:47:28.660 for the black

00:47:29.880 applicants.

00:47:31.860 So the group

00:47:32.900 Do No Harm

00:47:33.980 did an

00:47:35.220 analysis and

00:47:36.900 said that black 0.96

00:47:37.680 applicants have

00:47:38.380 almost ten times

00:47:39.540 the odds of

00:47:40.200 admission compared

00:47:41.160 to similarly

00:47:42.040 qualified Asian

00:47:42.960 or white

00:47:43.280 applicants, sparking

00:47:46.000 concerns over

00:47:46.960 racial bias in

00:47:48.060 admission.

00:47:49.380 Concerns?

00:47:52.020 I'm starting to

00:47:53.380 think there's

00:47:53.820 some racial bias.

00:47:55.720 Huh.

00:47:56.680 I don't know.

00:47:57.820 I'm just

00:47:58.180 getting a gut

00:48:00.160 instinct.

00:48:02.120 Yeah.

00:48:02.920 I think you

00:48:04.540 could accurately

00:48:05.320 suspect there's

00:48:06.680 a little bit of

00:48:07.300 racial bias going

00:48:08.280 on.

00:48:08.500 A little bit.

00:48:09.420 Uh, and the

00:48:11.460 investigation found

00:48:12.460 that 22 under

00:48:13.660 23 public

00:48:14.740 medical schools

00:48:15.880 prioritize racial

00:48:17.640 minority applicants

00:48:18.700 over more

00:48:19.680 academically

00:48:20.340 qualified candidates.

00:48:22.560 Wow.

00:48:23.500 So your medical

00:48:26.500 schools are

00:48:27.660 rigged.

00:48:28.360 Your medical

00:48:29.180 textbooks are

00:48:30.320 more than half

00:48:31.040 wrong.

00:48:32.040 Your peer-reviewed

00:48:33.320 science is more

00:48:34.220 than half

00:48:34.880 bullshit.

00:48:37.460 Um, so I'm

00:48:38.680 afraid to go to

00:48:39.340 a doctor.

00:48:42.080 Yeah, I feel

00:48:43.060 like the older

00:48:43.860 the doctor is,

00:48:44.840 the better you

00:48:45.380 are.

00:48:46.220 And I'm not

00:48:47.120 sure that's

00:48:47.640 true.

00:48:47.900 That might work

00:48:48.800 the opposite.

00:48:50.660 All right.

00:48:52.120 Um, you

00:48:53.460 apparently, uh,

00:48:55.640 one in five

00:48:58.160 faculty jobs

00:48:59.380 for colleges,

00:49:00.220 uh, require

00:49:01.760 some kind of

00:49:02.520 DEI statement.

00:49:03.840 So even though

00:49:04.660 DEI is, you

00:49:06.180 know, federally

00:49:07.020 illegal, um,

00:49:09.600 one in five

00:49:10.380 faculty jobs

00:49:11.400 require you to

00:49:12.640 write something

00:49:13.420 about how

00:49:14.240 DEI you are,

00:49:15.340 how much you

00:49:15.840 love it, and

00:49:16.340 how much you're

00:49:16.820 going to work

00:49:17.160 toward it.

00:49:18.440 Now, I've

00:49:19.460 got, uh, a

00:49:21.280 reframe for

00:49:22.060 you.

00:49:22.560 So I

00:49:23.480 mentioned this

00:49:24.100 before, but

00:49:24.900 I've got a

00:49:25.680 better way to

00:49:26.160 say it, which 0.91

00:49:27.560 is, you

00:49:28.560 know how

00:49:29.020 there was

00:49:30.420 racism, of

00:49:31.760 course, we

00:49:32.740 all know that

00:49:33.240 racism is

00:49:35.000 real and

00:49:35.500 happened as

00:49:36.220 part of our

00:49:36.660 history, but

00:49:37.680 then we also

00:49:38.340 know that

00:49:38.960 sometime around

00:49:40.000 the late

00:49:41.280 70s, early

00:49:42.820 80s, something

00:49:44.340 called reverse

00:49:45.440 racism became

00:49:47.660 a thing.

00:49:48.140 and do

00:49:50.000 you know

00:49:50.300 that you

00:49:50.640 can't get

00:49:51.080 any sympathy

00:49:51.880 whatsoever for

00:49:52.960 reverse racism

00:49:54.360 because people

00:49:55.980 would just

00:49:56.280 say, you

00:49:56.780 can't be

00:49:57.080 racist against

00:49:57.800 white people,

00:49:59.100 you can't be

00:49:59.600 racist against

00:50:00.460 white men

00:50:01.060 especially because

00:50:01.880 they have all

00:50:02.320 the power, the

00:50:03.020 patriarchy.

00:50:04.300 So by

00:50:05.520 definition, there's

00:50:07.280 no such thing as

00:50:08.140 being racist against

00:50:09.240 white men.

00:50:10.600 So that's what

00:50:11.380 would happen if

00:50:12.000 you say, it's

00:50:12.940 reverse racism,

00:50:14.480 it's reverse,

00:50:15.800 doesn't work,

00:50:16.940 doesn't leave a

00:50:17.560 mark.

00:50:18.800 But if you

00:50:20.220 agree that

00:50:22.000 systemic racism

00:50:23.400 is real, and

00:50:24.560 I do, it

00:50:26.480 does seem like

00:50:27.160 there's sort of

00:50:28.960 a ripple effect

00:50:29.760 from slavery

00:50:30.640 that is very

00:50:31.980 real in the

00:50:32.520 United States.

00:50:33.240 And I don't

00:50:34.080 think that your

00:50:35.140 argument has

00:50:35.900 helped by

00:50:37.120 denying it and

00:50:38.120 saying things

00:50:38.720 like, well,

00:50:39.280 name a law

00:50:40.080 where there's

00:50:42.100 some disadvantage

00:50:42.840 to blacks.

00:50:43.540 It's not about

00:50:44.500 the law, it's

00:50:45.960 about what

00:50:46.500 is sort of

00:50:47.380 just absorbed

00:50:48.660 into the

00:50:49.440 nature of

00:50:50.820 things.

00:50:52.020 Specifically,

00:50:53.500 if you

00:50:54.640 started, you

00:50:55.940 know, behind

00:50:56.500 economically, it

00:50:57.980 would be hard

00:50:58.320 to catch up.

00:51:00.120 So there

00:51:00.720 really is

00:51:01.560 systemic racism,

00:51:03.340 just not in

00:51:04.140 the law.

00:51:04.720 The law

00:51:05.120 doesn't do

00:51:05.700 it.

00:51:06.620 But the

00:51:08.380 example I

00:51:09.280 like to use

00:51:09.900 is if you

00:51:12.560 were born

00:51:12.960 into a

00:51:13.380 family that

00:51:14.560 has been

00:51:14.880 doing well

00:51:15.580 for 100

00:51:16.100 years,

00:51:16.840 your grandfather

00:51:17.800 and your

00:51:18.260 grandfather's

00:51:18.880 grandfather and

00:51:19.620 they all went

00:51:20.020 to college and

00:51:20.640 stuff, you're

00:51:21.860 going to have a

00:51:22.460 lot of people to

00:51:23.500 help you.

00:51:25.000 You'll have

00:51:25.540 funding if you

00:51:26.880 need it to start

00:51:27.700 a business,

00:51:28.520 you'll have your

00:51:29.900 odds of going to

00:51:30.640 college are very

00:51:31.380 high.

00:51:32.360 So to me,

00:51:33.160 that's a little

00:51:34.720 bit of systemic

00:51:35.520 racism.

00:51:36.560 But here's what I

00:51:37.880 suggest.

00:51:38.880 Instead of saying

00:51:39.840 reverse racism,

00:51:41.940 because that

00:51:43.320 just doesn't

00:51:43.840 work for

00:51:44.280 anybody,

00:51:44.800 just say it's

00:51:45.380 systemic.

00:51:47.160 DEI is

00:51:48.580 systemic racism.

00:51:50.400 So every time

00:51:51.180 somebody says,

00:51:52.140 but what about

00:51:53.240 all the systemic

00:51:54.180 racism?

00:51:55.220 You could say,

00:51:56.900 yeah, there's a

00:51:57.500 ton of it.

00:51:59.500 Black people

00:52:00.360 have the

00:52:01.160 legacy of

00:52:01.800 slavery and

00:52:02.460 white people

00:52:03.020 have DEI.

00:52:04.860 And they're

00:52:05.520 both systemic

00:52:06.620 racism and we

00:52:07.700 should get rid

00:52:09.020 of both of

00:52:09.500 them if we

00:52:09.900 can.

00:52:11.940 Anyway,

00:52:12.980 NVIDIA's CEO

00:52:14.060 says he's in

00:52:15.080 talks with the

00:52:16.860 Trump people

00:52:17.760 about making a

00:52:19.040 special chip,

00:52:20.600 an AI chip,

00:52:21.580 just to sell to

00:52:22.400 China that would 0.98

00:52:23.620 be way less good

00:52:24.820 than the AI chips

00:52:25.980 we would use

00:52:26.740 here and with

00:52:28.440 our allies,

00:52:29.100 I guess.

00:52:30.020 So that's not a

00:52:31.200 done deal,

00:52:31.940 but they're talking

00:52:32.760 about making some

00:52:33.720 B30A chip and

00:52:37.320 we'd give China 0.99

00:52:38.320 the bad ones.

00:52:39.020 It seems to

00:52:40.240 me that we

00:52:42.120 would be really

00:52:42.900 lighting a fire

00:52:43.720 under China to

00:52:45.020 either take over

00:52:46.620 Taiwan or

00:52:47.520 somehow start

00:52:48.600 their own

00:52:49.220 successful

00:52:50.860 microchip business.

00:52:52.060 I'm surprised

00:52:52.540 they don't already

00:52:53.180 have that.

00:52:54.880 But we'll see

00:52:57.240 if there's an

00:52:57.780 unintended

00:52:58.180 consequence of

00:52:59.260 that.

00:53:01.360 Well,

00:53:01.800 Coinbase,

00:53:02.660 the company

00:53:03.120 Coinbase,

00:53:03.880 the CEO

00:53:05.320 says that

00:53:06.160 he's fired

00:53:07.580 engineers for

00:53:09.200 refusing to

00:53:10.060 use AI.

00:53:12.540 So he

00:53:13.780 wants the

00:53:15.240 company to

00:53:15.800 go AI

00:53:17.100 so hard

00:53:17.940 that some

00:53:19.140 of the

00:53:19.640 engineers who

00:53:20.980 refused it

00:53:22.460 and maybe

00:53:23.060 didn't see the

00:53:23.700 value in it

00:53:24.380 yet just got

00:53:25.520 fired.

00:53:27.320 So that's

00:53:28.860 happening.

00:53:29.160 I would love

00:53:30.120 to know the

00:53:30.860 argument from

00:53:31.880 those engineers.

00:53:32.760 engineers.

00:53:33.440 My guess is

00:53:34.900 that they just

00:53:36.080 believe that AI

00:53:37.020 is not ready

00:53:37.800 and so they

00:53:39.320 didn't want to

00:53:40.200 waste their

00:53:41.540 life working on

00:53:42.500 a thing that

00:53:43.020 wouldn't ever

00:53:43.540 work either

00:53:44.940 because of

00:53:45.480 hallucinations or

00:53:46.640 one thing or

00:53:47.620 other.

00:53:48.520 So I don't

00:53:48.920 know.

00:53:49.600 If they're not

00:53:50.200 using it for

00:53:50.920 coding, that

00:53:52.100 seems like

00:53:52.600 obviously there's

00:53:53.500 a mistake.

00:53:54.220 They should be.

00:53:55.480 But probably

00:53:56.040 they had other

00:53:56.620 concerns besides

00:53:57.700 coding.

00:54:00.260 Well,

00:54:00.840 according to

00:54:01.760 Cheng Zhu

00:54:02.760 who's writing

00:54:03.460 that robots

00:54:04.660 can now

00:54:05.180 learn to

00:54:05.720 use tools

00:54:06.620 just by

00:54:07.780 watching

00:54:08.460 somebody use

00:54:10.820 the tool.

00:54:11.960 Now, of course,

00:54:12.500 that's the

00:54:12.960 holy grail of

00:54:14.060 robots and is

00:54:15.280 not yet

00:54:15.840 available,

00:54:16.660 but it is

00:54:17.480 one more

00:54:18.200 hint that

00:54:19.640 maybe robots

00:54:20.520 will be doing

00:54:21.060 all your

00:54:21.440 chores for you.

00:54:22.940 But I

00:54:23.800 guess what's

00:54:24.980 different about

00:54:25.620 this is that

00:54:27.080 they found

00:54:27.640 that if the

00:54:28.560 robot watches

00:54:29.360 a person

00:54:30.400 do a task,

00:54:31.760 let's say

00:54:32.120 folding laundry,

00:54:33.680 the robot,

00:54:34.480 for whatever

00:54:34.840 reason,

00:54:35.440 with AI,

00:54:36.820 can't learn

00:54:37.480 to do it

00:54:38.060 just by

00:54:38.580 watching a

00:54:39.100 human do

00:54:39.560 it.

00:54:40.460 But they

00:54:41.460 determined

00:54:41.940 that if you

00:54:42.700 remove the

00:54:43.420 human from

00:54:44.880 the video

00:54:45.500 and you just

00:54:46.640 show the

00:54:47.060 tools by

00:54:48.080 themselves,

00:54:49.320 doing the

00:54:49.920 thing that

00:54:50.280 the tool

00:54:50.660 does,

00:54:51.600 whether it's

00:54:52.360 a hammer

00:54:53.240 hitting a nail

00:54:54.880 or some

00:54:55.880 other tool

00:54:56.600 doing something,

00:54:57.220 that the

00:54:58.040 robot and

00:54:58.820 the AI

00:54:59.220 can somehow

00:55:00.220 more easily

00:55:01.480 learn how

00:55:02.240 to use the

00:55:02.980 tool if

00:55:04.240 they've seen

00:55:04.740 the tool

00:55:05.280 separated from

00:55:06.160 the human.

00:55:07.700 Because I

00:55:08.360 guess there's

00:55:09.980 too much

00:55:10.340 variability in

00:55:11.340 the human

00:55:11.880 part.

00:55:13.080 They wouldn't

00:55:13.400 know what

00:55:13.700 to copy.

00:55:14.820 But if it's

00:55:15.260 just the

00:55:15.620 tool,

00:55:16.700 it's just a

00:55:17.260 hammer hitting

00:55:17.860 a nail,

00:55:18.480 that's my

00:55:18.940 own example,

00:55:20.140 then they'd

00:55:20.560 say,

00:55:20.780 oh,

00:55:21.540 I need to

00:55:22.040 use that

00:55:22.460 thing to

00:55:22.800 hit that

00:55:23.140 thing.

00:55:23.760 And then

00:55:24.020 it's easier

00:55:24.480 for them to

00:55:24.980 learn.

00:55:25.680 Now,

00:55:25.960 I'm doing a

00:55:26.340 bad job of

00:55:26.900 explaining it.

00:55:28.220 But there

00:55:28.880 is the

00:55:29.240 belief that

00:55:29.820 they may

00:55:30.160 have cracked

00:55:30.900 the toughest

00:55:33.160 part about

00:55:33.860 making robots

00:55:34.740 useful,

00:55:35.680 which is how

00:55:36.220 the heck do

00:55:36.660 you train

00:55:37.040 them to do

00:55:37.540 more than

00:55:37.880 one thing?

00:55:38.640 I always

00:55:39.140 tease that

00:55:40.680 for 20

00:55:41.360 years we've

00:55:42.420 been seeing

00:55:42.960 excited videos

00:55:45.700 about robots

00:55:46.500 that can

00:55:47.180 carry a box

00:55:47.960 from one

00:55:48.480 shelf to

00:55:48.880 another

00:55:49.160 shelf.

00:55:50.940 I believe

00:55:51.820 it was

00:55:52.760 25 years

00:55:55.560 ago at

00:55:56.720 least when

00:55:58.000 I saw

00:55:58.380 a TV

00:55:59.720 show about

00:56:00.380 a robot

00:56:00.940 that could 0.68

00:56:01.560 fold laundry. 0.95

00:56:03.400 And the

00:56:03.600 idea was

00:56:04.280 that they

00:56:04.560 had cracked

00:56:05.280 laundry

00:56:06.540 folding so

00:56:07.940 that forever

00:56:08.600 more,

00:56:09.520 25 years

00:56:10.420 ago,

00:56:11.760 that forever

00:56:12.320 more after

00:56:13.060 that we'd

00:56:14.800 have robots

00:56:15.460 doing our

00:56:16.100 laundry.

00:56:17.140 Well,

00:56:17.580 you don't

00:56:18.040 have a robot

00:56:18.840 doing your

00:56:19.380 laundry,

00:56:19.800 do you?

00:56:20.120 So 25

00:56:21.540 years ago

00:56:22.320 they thought

00:56:22.780 they had

00:56:23.120 cracked this

00:56:23.880 thing,

00:56:24.740 how to

00:56:25.020 teach you

00:56:25.500 how to

00:56:25.760 do stuff

00:56:26.220 like fold

00:56:26.800 laundry.

00:56:27.600 Not even

00:56:28.060 close.

00:56:29.680 And in

00:56:30.960 my opinion,

00:56:32.000 even when I

00:56:32.640 watched the

00:56:33.140 robots demonstrate

00:56:34.340 folding laundry,

00:56:35.900 I'm pretty

00:56:36.500 sure that it

00:56:37.320 can't fold

00:56:37.980 all kinds

00:56:38.700 of laundry.

00:56:40.200 Like I

00:56:40.620 don't know

00:56:40.880 what it's

00:56:41.140 going to do

00:56:41.520 with the

00:56:41.880 fitted sheets.

00:56:43.500 Good luck

00:56:44.080 with that.

00:56:45.820 But usually

00:56:46.700 the only thing

00:56:47.380 they fold

00:56:47.900 is a shirt.

00:56:48.560 So I

00:56:50.180 feel like

00:56:50.700 it can

00:56:51.780 usually

00:56:52.360 fold a

00:56:52.980 shirt.

00:56:54.180 That's about

00:56:54.940 it.

00:56:55.680 It can

00:56:56.060 usually

00:56:56.560 fold a

00:56:57.200 shirt.

00:56:58.800 How often

00:56:59.560 do you

00:56:59.880 fold a

00:57:00.340 shirt versus

00:57:01.040 put it on

00:57:01.700 a hanger?

00:57:04.080 I don't

00:57:04.720 have any

00:57:05.140 folded shirts.

00:57:06.900 Do you

00:57:07.120 have any

00:57:07.480 folded shirts?

00:57:08.920 The only

00:57:09.340 time I

00:57:09.760 would fold

00:57:10.280 a shirt

00:57:10.700 is for

00:57:11.360 packing it

00:57:12.020 in luggage.

00:57:13.560 Otherwise

00:57:14.040 it's just

00:57:14.640 hanging on

00:57:15.080 a hanger.

00:57:16.800 Anyway,

00:57:17.280 unless you

00:57:19.500 have lots

00:57:20.000 more shirts

00:57:20.700 than I

00:57:21.060 have.

00:57:22.820 So here's

00:57:23.900 an interesting

00:57:24.380 story that

00:57:25.120 John Solomon

00:57:25.900 reports.

00:57:28.920 So John

00:57:30.380 Solomon

00:57:30.780 found out

00:57:33.080 in 2017

00:57:34.180 that he

00:57:35.140 was on

00:57:35.700 to a

00:57:36.060 bigger story

00:57:36.760 than he

00:57:37.140 thought

00:57:37.500 because that

00:57:38.140 was the

00:57:38.560 very beginning

00:57:39.640 of the

00:57:40.100 Russiagate

00:57:40.860 stuff.

00:57:41.800 So I

00:57:42.080 guess he

00:57:42.380 had an

00:57:43.120 interview

00:57:43.460 with

00:57:43.940 Jan

00:57:45.160 Jekielek

00:57:46.460 of the

00:57:47.240 Epoch

00:57:47.700 Times.

00:57:49.060 And this

00:57:50.320 is what

00:57:50.800 John Solomon

00:57:51.720 reported.

00:57:54.820 This is

00:57:55.620 just mind

00:57:56.080 blowing that

00:57:57.400 this really

00:57:58.000 happened.

00:57:58.820 This sounds

00:57:59.340 so much

00:57:59.720 like a

00:58:00.180 TV show,

00:58:01.260 but this

00:58:01.540 really

00:58:01.760 happened.

00:58:02.760 So

00:58:02.880 apparently

00:58:03.220 John

00:58:03.760 Solomon

00:58:04.060 had just

00:58:04.500 gone on

00:58:04.900 Fox

00:58:05.320 News

00:58:05.900 with a

00:58:07.140 story about

00:58:08.420 all the

00:58:08.820 people who

00:58:09.280 were being

00:58:09.660 quote

00:58:10.060 unmasked

00:58:11.600 so that

00:58:14.540 the government

00:58:15.260 could spy

00:58:15.900 on them.

00:58:18.180 And that

00:58:19.100 a lot of

00:58:19.540 them were

00:58:19.820 American

00:58:20.260 citizens and

00:58:21.900 their private

00:58:22.480 communications.

00:58:23.720 So that

00:58:24.180 was the

00:58:24.540 story,

00:58:25.140 that the

00:58:25.500 government

00:58:25.860 was spying

00:58:27.400 on Americans

00:58:28.060 with very

00:58:29.760 thin reasons

00:58:31.100 that I

00:58:32.220 think they

00:58:32.800 would use

00:58:33.200 as an

00:58:33.540 excuse

00:58:34.120 that that

00:58:35.360 American

00:58:35.920 had talked

00:58:36.520 to somebody

00:58:37.040 from another

00:58:37.680 country.

00:58:38.160 or somebody

00:58:40.820 who was

00:58:41.120 suspicious.

00:58:42.680 And that

00:58:43.300 would give

00:58:43.840 them enough.

00:58:44.700 So that

00:58:44.940 was the

00:58:45.300 story.

00:58:46.200 So that's

00:58:46.560 all he

00:58:46.860 had.

00:58:48.560 And then

00:58:48.920 senior

00:58:51.480 FBI and

00:58:52.400 Department

00:58:52.860 of Justice

00:58:53.320 officials

00:58:53.980 had told

00:58:54.940 John

00:58:55.240 Solomon,

00:58:55.940 don't waste

00:58:56.880 your time

00:58:57.440 on Russia

00:58:58.180 collusion.

00:58:59.460 So he'd

00:58:59.900 been warned

00:59:00.380 away from

00:59:00.840 the story.

00:59:02.500 And then

00:59:02.720 he says,

00:59:03.420 late that

00:59:04.040 night,

00:59:04.700 he pulled

00:59:05.140 into his

00:59:05.660 driveway.

00:59:07.040 Here's

00:59:07.400 where it

00:59:07.740 gets

00:59:07.960 creepy.

00:59:09.480 And a

00:59:10.120 blue sedan

00:59:10.760 with the

00:59:11.120 yellow fog

00:59:11.740 lights sat

00:59:12.440 waiting by

00:59:13.000 his mailbox.

00:59:18.180 And then

00:59:18.940 two men

00:59:19.580 stepped out.

00:59:21.280 And they

00:59:22.000 said to

00:59:22.600 John Solomon,

00:59:23.500 we can't

00:59:24.040 tell you

00:59:24.420 who we

00:59:24.840 are,

00:59:25.600 but you're

00:59:26.060 at the

00:59:26.420 tip of

00:59:26.940 a very

00:59:27.380 large

00:59:27.840 iceberg,

00:59:28.700 and we

00:59:29.040 hope you

00:59:29.440 drill into

00:59:30.060 it.

00:59:31.020 And Solomon

00:59:31.680 said,

00:59:32.100 what in

00:59:32.360 God's name

00:59:32.860 are you

00:59:33.080 guys

00:59:33.320 talking

00:59:33.680 about?

00:59:34.760 And then

00:59:35.080 one of

00:59:35.420 them said,

00:59:35.660 well,

00:59:36.280 that thing

00:59:36.900 you were

00:59:37.220 reporting

00:59:37.640 on

00:59:37.880 television.

00:59:39.320 And he

00:59:39.680 said,

00:59:39.940 yeah,

00:59:40.220 that's

00:59:40.520 FISA

00:59:41.160 court

00:59:41.720 ruling,

00:59:42.360 or filing,

00:59:43.060 FISA

00:59:43.360 court

00:59:43.680 filing.

00:59:45.620 And one

00:59:46.280 of the

00:59:46.540 gentlemen

00:59:46.840 said,

00:59:47.420 it is

00:59:47.860 the apex

00:59:48.520 of a

00:59:48.940 very

00:59:49.200 large

00:59:49.700 scandal,

00:59:50.740 and you

00:59:51.000 need to

00:59:51.380 drill down

00:59:52.060 in it.

00:59:53.540 And they

00:59:54.140 said,

00:59:54.460 walk me

00:59:55.220 through this

00:59:55.700 guys.

00:59:56.140 And they

00:59:56.640 said,

00:59:56.940 we can't

00:59:57.400 tell you,

00:59:57.760 it's all

00:59:58.020 classified.

00:59:59.960 And he

01:00:00.400 said,

01:00:00.620 all right,

01:00:00.860 that's not

01:00:01.220 very helpful.

01:00:02.140 Can you

01:00:02.400 give me

01:00:02.720 something,

01:00:03.720 you know,

01:00:03.940 more generic

01:00:04.560 description?

01:00:05.720 And they

01:00:06.180 said,

01:00:06.400 yeah,

01:00:06.580 we work

01:00:07.000 in the

01:00:07.300 intelligence

01:00:07.740 community,

01:00:08.520 and our

01:00:09.140 agencies

01:00:09.620 were asked

01:00:10.220 to participate

01:00:10.880 in one

01:00:11.320 of the

01:00:11.560 greatest

01:00:11.920 political

01:00:12.580 dirty

01:00:13.020 tricks

01:00:13.420 in

01:00:13.620 history.

01:00:14.060 And if

01:00:18.060 it isn't

01:00:18.500 stopped,

01:00:19.620 and one

01:00:20.340 day,

01:00:20.720 when it

01:00:21.220 is uncovered,

01:00:22.240 we will

01:00:22.840 lose the

01:00:23.460 tools that

01:00:24.180 keep you

01:00:24.660 and I

01:00:24.960 safe at

01:00:25.500 night.

01:00:26.180 We won't

01:00:26.860 be able to

01:00:27.280 find terrorists

01:00:27.920 and we

01:00:28.320 won't find

01:00:28.800 spies because

01:00:29.520 these tools

01:00:30.260 will be

01:00:30.560 taken from

01:00:31.140 us because

01:00:31.960 we abused

01:00:32.760 them in the

01:00:33.240 last couple

01:00:33.760 of years.

01:00:35.240 So I

01:00:36.180 guess they

01:00:36.760 knew maybe

01:00:37.520 about the

01:00:38.880 Russian

01:00:39.120 collusion

01:00:39.700 hoax.

01:00:42.440 So that's

01:00:43.620 that is

01:00:45.120 so much

01:00:45.920 like what

01:00:47.480 the movie

01:00:47.980 would look

01:00:48.400 like.

01:00:49.960 Can't you

01:00:50.460 already see

01:00:51.300 Trump the

01:00:52.220 movie?

01:00:53.360 And maybe

01:00:53.680 it's like

01:00:54.240 a three-part

01:00:55.940 miniseries or

01:00:56.960 something.

01:00:57.740 But there

01:00:58.560 are so many

01:00:59.160 little scenes

01:01:00.200 that would be

01:01:02.000 amazing scenes.

01:01:03.380 Like one of

01:01:03.940 the scenes

01:01:04.380 would be

01:01:05.340 Ann Coulter

01:01:06.420 on real

01:01:07.460 time predicting

01:01:08.820 that Trump

01:01:09.420 would win.

01:01:10.220 I mean,

01:01:10.440 obviously that

01:01:11.280 scene would

01:01:11.900 be in the

01:01:12.260 movie.

01:01:12.520 and then

01:01:14.380 all the

01:01:14.880 lawfare.

01:01:16.940 Oh, my

01:01:17.320 God.

01:01:17.680 The Trump

01:01:18.360 the movie

01:01:18.940 would just

01:01:20.500 be freaking

01:01:21.260 amazing.

01:01:22.640 Just amazing.

01:01:28.120 All right.

01:01:28.940 Let's get

01:01:29.360 that one.

01:01:32.540 According to

01:01:33.340 the American

01:01:34.080 Sociological

01:01:35.240 Association,

01:01:37.860 there was a

01:01:38.680 study that

01:01:39.160 finds that

01:01:39.640 right-wing

01:01:40.100 media operates

01:01:41.080 more like a

01:01:41.780 religion.

01:01:43.320 All right.

01:01:43.880 Now, I'm

01:01:44.440 not even

01:01:44.760 going to get

01:01:45.120 into the

01:01:45.500 details of

01:01:46.360 why they

01:01:46.800 say that

01:01:47.380 a right-wing

01:01:48.420 news operates

01:01:49.700 more like a

01:01:50.760 religion.

01:01:51.940 I'm just

01:01:52.700 going to give

01:01:53.160 you a couple

01:01:54.740 of rules that

01:01:55.740 I use in

01:01:56.440 life.

01:01:57.540 One of them

01:01:58.060 is there

01:02:00.360 are two

01:02:01.240 opinions that

01:02:02.420 you can safely

01:02:03.360 ignore every

01:02:04.380 time.

01:02:05.460 One of them

01:02:06.300 is that thing

01:02:07.640 I don't like

01:02:08.380 is like a

01:02:09.100 cult.

01:02:09.420 doesn't even

01:02:11.220 matter what

01:02:11.700 the thing

01:02:12.080 is.

01:02:13.000 Just ignore

01:02:14.040 that.

01:02:15.580 No, it's

01:02:16.040 not like, it's

01:02:16.800 not a cult.

01:02:19.020 It might have

01:02:19.800 like a couple

01:02:20.500 things that

01:02:21.140 remind you,

01:02:22.340 but no,

01:02:23.640 it's never a

01:02:24.500 cult.

01:02:25.420 And certainly

01:02:26.080 MAGA is not

01:02:26.880 a cult.

01:02:27.880 People can

01:02:28.500 come and go.

01:02:29.460 They have

01:02:29.720 access to all

01:02:30.640 the information

01:02:31.340 everywhere.

01:02:33.400 You know,

01:02:33.580 nobody, nobody's

01:02:34.820 being asked to

01:02:35.560 give up their

01:02:36.120 life.

01:02:37.580 None of

01:02:38.280 it.

01:02:39.220 You know, to

01:02:39.960 imagine that

01:02:40.800 that's a cult

01:02:41.620 when in fact

01:02:43.000 it's just a

01:02:43.720 common interest

01:02:44.600 and people

01:02:45.200 having fun,

01:02:46.680 it's just so

01:02:48.140 far off.

01:02:49.060 And I've

01:02:49.360 never seen

01:02:50.140 anything called

01:02:51.600 a cult that

01:02:53.980 really fit,

01:02:55.660 unless it was,

01:02:56.540 you know,

01:02:56.860 actual, they're

01:02:57.600 wearing robes

01:02:58.520 and, you

01:02:59.440 know, they're

01:03:00.160 committing mass

01:03:01.220 suicide or

01:03:01.820 something.

01:03:02.140 Those are

01:03:02.480 cults.

01:03:03.180 But when

01:03:04.280 you're calling

01:03:05.120 some political

01:03:05.940 thing a cult,

01:03:07.280 never.

01:03:08.200 Yeah, it

01:03:08.620 never fits.

01:03:09.520 In the same

01:03:10.000 way that it's

01:03:10.460 a religion.

01:03:12.120 I guess that's

01:03:13.020 just a nicer

01:03:13.620 way to say

01:03:14.240 cult.

01:03:15.280 But no,

01:03:16.520 it's not like

01:03:17.180 a religion.

01:03:18.320 It's not.

01:03:19.380 Whatever that

01:03:20.200 thing is that

01:03:20.900 you said is

01:03:21.540 like a religion,

01:03:22.640 I guarantee

01:03:23.360 you, without

01:03:24.180 even knowing

01:03:24.840 what the thing

01:03:25.540 is, it's

01:03:26.580 not like a

01:03:27.140 religion.

01:03:27.980 It's not

01:03:28.440 like a cult.

01:03:29.560 These are

01:03:29.960 just dumb

01:03:30.640 things to

01:03:31.280 say that

01:03:32.420 people who

01:03:33.220 write articles

01:03:33.900 like to

01:03:34.460 say.

01:03:35.960 Well,

01:03:36.320 meanwhile, in

01:03:36.980 Mexico, the

01:03:37.720 Mexican president

01:03:38.920 has rejected

01:03:40.180 the praise

01:03:41.840 that she's

01:03:42.300 getting for

01:03:42.840 all of her

01:03:43.280 great cooperation

01:03:44.220 with our

01:03:44.940 American

01:03:45.540 DEA,

01:03:47.140 according to

01:03:47.920 Breitbart

01:03:48.880 News.

01:03:50.820 Defenso

01:03:51.540 Ortiz and

01:03:52.280 Brandon Darby

01:03:53.200 are talking

01:03:53.580 about this.

01:03:55.820 So the

01:03:56.240 Mexican

01:03:56.560 president,

01:03:57.320 that's

01:03:57.580 Claudia

01:03:58.660 Scheinbaum,

01:04:00.220 says that

01:04:00.960 they're not

01:04:01.360 doing anything

01:04:02.240 beyond what

01:04:02.960 they've

01:04:03.440 always done,

01:04:04.540 which is

01:04:04.980 that they're

01:04:05.420 always

01:04:05.780 cooperative

01:04:06.320 with the

01:04:06.820 U.S.

01:04:07.780 and the

01:04:08.340 cartel

01:04:08.820 stuff.

01:04:09.920 Now, I

01:04:10.380 don't know

01:04:10.600 what's

01:04:10.820 true.

01:04:12.220 This is

01:04:12.700 another one

01:04:13.200 of those

01:04:13.560 where you

01:04:13.920 can't trust

01:04:14.700 the reporting

01:04:15.280 and you

01:04:15.680 certainly

01:04:16.060 can't trust

01:04:16.700 the president

01:04:17.780 of Mexico

01:04:18.380 to tell you

01:04:18.940 the truth.

01:04:19.880 So one

01:04:20.560 of two

01:04:20.900 things is

01:04:21.480 true.

01:04:22.600 Either

01:04:23.080 Mexico is 0.51

01:04:24.200 helping a

01:04:24.700 lot more

01:04:25.020 than they

01:04:25.400 used to,

01:04:26.300 or they're

01:04:26.700 not.

01:04:28.340 Even the

01:04:29.500 simplest things

01:04:30.540 in the

01:04:30.920 news,

01:04:31.940 you never

01:04:32.360 really know.

01:04:33.720 It's either

01:04:34.320 yes or

01:04:35.460 no.

01:04:36.720 It's one

01:04:37.420 of those

01:04:37.720 things.

01:04:38.860 And we're

01:04:39.400 either

01:04:39.780 attacking

01:04:41.080 Russia's 0.70

01:04:41.800 infrastructure

01:04:42.440 or we're

01:04:43.340 not.

01:04:45.860 Yeah, we're

01:04:46.620 a cult.

01:04:47.880 That's right,

01:04:48.460 we're a cult.

01:04:49.960 The good

01:04:50.500 kind.

01:04:53.260 All right,

01:04:53.940 ladies and 0.98

01:04:54.360 gentlemen,

01:04:54.700 that's all I

01:04:55.260 had today.

01:04:55.780 it's a

01:04:57.620 wonderful

01:04:58.060 Sunday.

01:04:58.960 I don't

01:04:59.300 know where

01:04:59.740 your

01:05:00.720 weather's

01:05:01.300 at, but

01:05:01.820 ours is

01:05:02.360 sunny and

01:05:03.160 perfect.

01:05:04.180 Today is

01:05:14.100 so that's

01:05:14.540 kind of

01:05:16.400 Good news
