00:03:44.940 week he was so kind to oblige so he'll be coming on next week i'm excited for you to meet him so

00:03:51.300 that's why it's just three of us today because we have something else planned. Okay. So let's do,

00:03:57.220 my name is Erica. Welcome to the Scott Adams school by the way. You guys reframe your brain

00:04:04.780 page 160. Okay. I was at work last night thinking, what do we want to do today? And I think this will

00:04:12.880 be fun. So I'm going to read from Scott the reframe called judging others by their mistakes.

00:04:21.740 Okay, let's do it together. I already showed you how to make yourself immune to the criticism of 0.65

00:04:28.120 strangers. Now it's time to learn how to be less critical of others for the social benefits,

00:04:33.400 but also to protect your mental health. When others make mistakes that complicate our lives,

00:04:38.680 our most common reaction is anger at the offender. At the same time, we know everyone makes mistakes

00:04:44.820 for all manner of reasons we don't understand at the time. If we use that standard to judge

00:04:50.840 others, it will keep us busy hating half the people we meet. Worse, you might automatically

00:04:55.700 apply the same standard to yourself and end up baking a big old self-hatred cake. No one wants

00:05:02.360 a self-hatred cake. Rather than judge others by their mistakes, I recommend a different standard.

00:05:08.220 Judge people by how they respond to their mistakes.

00:05:12.260 That's a standard you can hold yourself to with some chance of success.

00:05:17.100 So the usual frame is judge people by their mistakes.

00:05:20.320 The reframe, judge people by how they respond to their mistakes.

00:05:25.620 When you observe someone handle their mistakes with confidence and empathy, fully acknowledging

00:05:30.600 any harm done, you're seeing the best a person can do.

00:05:34.340 We can't expect people to be error-free, but we can certainly ask them to handle their mistakes

00:05:39.900 with class. When a person handles their mistakes well, you instinctively trust them, and you

00:05:45.460 probably should. If you want to be trusted in your own life, that's a great model to follow.

00:05:50.980 Make your mistakes, apologize if needed, and announce your plan for avoiding the same mistake

00:05:56.640 in the future. People will notice. So true. I had a little bit of a day yesterday and I vented

00:06:06.880 and I thought about it and I had to also give myself a bit of like a 24 hour rule at least,

00:06:15.680 but I didn't need that amount of time. It ended quickly. But it's so true that,

00:06:23.120 you know, how does someone handle the mistake they made? You know how, do you ever see like

00:06:29.120 who watches, um, the real housewives of anywhere guilty, pleasure, guilty. And all of these people,

00:06:34.860 when they apologize for a mistake they made, they're like, I'm sorry if it made you feel that

00:06:40.180 way. And it's like, Oh my God, you actually made a mistake, but now you're putting it back on them

00:06:46.240 instead of having the ownership. Like, I'm sorry that the thing I did caused you pain,

00:06:50.480 own it. And so I just want people to understand that we do have to own our mistakes. It doesn't

00:06:57.800 hurt. It actually feels good when you make a mistake and you realize, and maybe you get called

00:07:02.460 out for it, or maybe you figured it out on your own later. Just own it, like fully own it. And

00:07:07.840 if you don't want to own it and you want to put the blame on someone else, then that also shows

00:07:13.280 who you are as a person, but you have to understand that people are going to judge you by that.

00:07:16.740 and that's all we have to go by. So I'm going to ask Owen first, you know, what do you think about

00:07:21.840 it? Are you recommending the husband apology? What is that? I think Scott talked about the

00:07:28.140 husband apology. It's, it's, so there are situations, you know, in, in a relationship

00:07:33.220 like a marriage where both people think they're right and they think the other one's wrong. And

00:07:39.220 um alison armstrong kind of recommends this as well as a way to help men and women get along

00:07:47.480 better is that when when the way she explains it is when a woman in a relationship feels like

00:07:54.060 she's been wronged by the man um she like goes into this i forget if it's sympathetic or

00:08:01.540 parasympathetic like you know her nervous system's going nuts and she can't even breathe and like

00:08:05.480 she's just out of her normal mode and she can't get back there until she gets an apology but there 0.98

00:08:12.600 are many situations where the man doesn't think he did anything wrong and so what do you do um

00:08:19.300 and she recommends this husband apology which is basically just the the guy says he's sorry

00:08:24.580 and gives the apology even though he doesn't think he's wrong i don't know about that i mean

00:08:31.780 i feel like that's like a relationship issue more than a you know go out into the world and how you

00:08:38.820 represent yourself issue because well so that i i didn't quite finish i want to explain she also

00:08:44.960 says um the very important thing for a woman in that situation is to accept that apology and not

00:08:54.080 go after him to if if you if the woman accepts the apology as and recognizes that that like it's

00:09:03.820 a gift it's a gift to get that apology because it allows her to go back into her normal mode of

00:09:08.640 you know feeling um that that will work out well but if she doubles down if she goes after him if

00:09:16.280 she starts you know getting even more angry or you know in any way punishes him for doing that

00:09:23.700 she'll never get that husband apology again so we shouldn't judge the apology on a scale of one

00:09:29.300 to ten we should just accept it well it's not so much about you know was the apology good enough

00:09:35.000 i think it's more just if the husband gives the apology um the woman should just show gratitude

00:09:43.080 or at least accept the apology and not not say i was right and you know and like keep going because

00:09:48.940 Because if you do that, then the man just learned that that doesn't work and he's never

00:09:53.460 going to do that again.

00:09:55.320 So this is just part of her coaching for both men and women in terms of how to get through

00:10:02.040 these situations.

00:10:03.180 But I think it falls somewhat in line with what it was in the reframe that if you're

00:10:09.000 judging more based on how the person handled the mistake as opposed to the mistake itself,

00:10:15.220 then you have a much better chance of getting along with people.

00:10:20.480 And like Scott said, if you don't do that,

00:10:23.180 then you're probably not going to get along with very many people

00:10:25.320 because everybody makes mistakes.

00:10:26.480 Yeah, and be sincere.

00:10:27.980 What do you think, Marcella?

00:10:30.720 Well, I think you need to take ownership of your own mistakes

00:10:34.640 and move quickly, correct, course correct quickly and move forward.

00:10:40.620 Don't think of the past.

00:10:42.360 Don't live there.

00:10:43.700 go forward and and say apologize who you need to apologize to and move forward um quickly

00:10:50.420 so i'm the jocko person you know that's right take ownership of everything that you

00:10:57.380 are doing and then most people feel better for doing it and hearing it yeah and if you quickly

00:11:03.620 correct uh what you're doing and you you you move forward quickly that it won't um how would i say

00:11:12.100 snowball into a bigger argument right and resentment won't set in and yeah all right good

00:11:20.180 i like it i think i think that was pretty self-explanatory so if you guys have to write

00:11:25.620 any wrongs oh go ahead owen well i was just gonna say i mean i think scott was a great example of

00:11:29.940 this that he was probably one of the most non-judgmental people that i've ever met or

00:11:34.420 encountered um and i think it was tied into his simulation theory and his um theory of lack of

00:11:40.900 free will and and that was actually my insight trying to just process his idea of people not

00:11:49.220 having free will because on one level it's like okay if people don't have free will then like

00:11:56.720 okay what is like how does that change your behavior how does that change how you think

00:12:00.680 about people or how you feel about people or how you act around people because in in many ways it's

00:12:05.940 you know the way he presents it it's like well you have the illusion of free will so you think

00:12:10.040 you have free will but you don't and it's like okay well if that's the case then how is it any

00:12:14.600 different like why does it matter if you believe or not whether someone has free will because if

00:12:19.620 they have the illusion of free will and you act like you have free will then it's no different

00:12:24.980 right um and i think what i what i had the insight i had was just okay the the net result i see is

00:12:32.640 that you would be much less judgmental of people you would say okay you know we might still need

00:12:38.660 to punish criminals because that's the only way the system will work and things like that

00:12:41.640 that he would say. But at the same time, you cannot judge people for being different or

00:12:46.720 for making mistakes because you understand that they don't have free will. So it's kind

00:12:53.760 of like a free pass to get rid of that judgment. And I think he very much lived that.

00:13:00.500 I'd agree with that. I don't agree with it, but I agree with it. You know what I'm saying?

00:13:04.960 mm-hmm um okay i love that thanks for letting us get that reframe in so you guys

00:13:11.600 lots of uh division right we keep talking about the splintering off of political parties friendship

00:13:19.720 groups uh opinions you know like we're we're too much it's too much um and most of it for most of

00:13:27.880 us we're on x or we're on social media or whatever and you see a lot of this playing out there

00:13:32.920 and I found this clip from Scott and we're going to just kick back and let it play. It's, uh,

00:13:40.440 it's several minutes long. So that's going to be fun for us to get, get to see Scott. Okay. So

00:13:45.660 let's play this and then we'll come back and chat it out and then we're going to go to news.

00:13:50.540 Okay. So here we go. I want to, I want to toss out a, uh, explanation for the division in the

00:14:00.140 country. All right? And it's one you haven't heard before. I tested it out on my Man Cave

00:14:06.720 live stream last night. Got a good response, so I'm going to try it again. And it goes like this.

00:14:13.100 If you talk to somebody in person, how likely are you in 2023 to want to get into a political

00:14:22.200 conversation? I'm going to answer the question for you while I watch your answers. Probably

00:14:28.420 close to zero. Because you know that in 2023, if you get into a political conversation with

00:14:34.440 somebody whose views you don't already know. Now, if it's somebody who's really close to you,

00:14:39.360 and you already know their views, and you're just saying something you know they're going to agree

00:14:43.040 with, that's fine. But you would not enter a, let's say, a cocktail party without knowing the people

00:14:49.420 and launch into a political conversation. Because your odds of, you know, they're being on your side

00:14:55.620 Or, you know, 25% or something.

00:14:58.160 So people will stay away from it in person.

00:15:00.420 All right, now let me turn that into a mechanical process.

00:15:04.280 So I described it on a social, conceptual level.

00:15:08.080 Now I'm going to turn it into a machine.

00:15:11.240 What would be your experience if you got into a political conversation

00:15:15.100 and it turned ugly?

00:15:18.340 You would produce cortisol.

00:15:21.060 Your body would produce cortisol.

00:15:22.700 And that makes you feel bad.

00:15:24.180 because it'd be tense.

00:15:26.800 So tension makes you feel bad and trains you not to do it,

00:15:29.740 so that's why we don't do it in person.

00:15:32.680 Now let's go to social media.

00:15:35.800 When I see a tweet from Rob Reiner,

00:15:39.580 and I think, you know, I'll bet I could make my followers laugh

00:15:43.180 with this clever, cutting rejoinder.

00:15:47.320 And then I'll send my little post,

00:15:49.680 and I'll get a bunch of positive reinforcement retweets

00:15:54.180 and hearts, and I'll get a bump of dopamine. So when I'm in person, I don't cause division.

00:16:03.160 I just get along with everybody, because I don't want cortisol, and that's my only option.

00:16:09.060 Well, the risk, right? I mean, maybe I could find somebody like-minded, but I'm not going to take

00:16:14.200 the risk of a cortisol-like cluster bomb that I created for myself. But online, it's nothing but

00:16:22.420 dopamine. So I'm like, I don't mean addicted. It's just an addiction. So the division in the

00:16:31.080 country is not an in-person division. We all know that. We all know the division is fake

00:16:37.480 because we only do it online. If you put me in person with anybody, you could drop me into a

00:16:45.860 crowd of the most rabid, you know, Democrat anti-Trumpers. And if they didn't ask me any

00:16:52.540 political questions, and let's say they didn't recognize me, I could get along fine. I wouldn't

00:16:58.280 have the slightest problem in an event where every single person was a progressive. I wouldn't have

00:17:05.240 any problem. I could easily get along with them, make permanent friends. But as soon as you put me

00:17:12.800 online. I'm just a dopamine fiend. So when we're talking about the division, if you want to talk

00:17:19.740 about the division conceptually and who said what, you get nowhere. You don't get any understanding

00:17:26.160 of what's happening. You know, if you ask most people what's causing the division, what would

00:17:30.740 they say? Well, the other side, duh. I'll tell you who's causing the division. It's those people I'm

00:17:37.480 getting my dopamine hit insulting. The people that I'm getting my rocks off from insulting,

00:17:44.040 they are the cause. But I might as well enjoy it. I mean, I might as well enjoy mocking them

00:17:48.540 because I didn't cause it. Like, it's not me. But of course it's you. You're getting your

00:17:54.540 dopamine hit. They're getting their dopamine hit. It's dopamine. So as long as there's a dopamine

00:18:01.460 reward for division, you get more of it. But as soon as you walk out the door to the real world,

00:18:07.480 you can't get that hit

00:18:09.300 it's simply not available to you

00:18:11.480 so you go into a different chemical

00:18:13.760 cost benefit analysis

00:18:16.320 you go well I don't want any

00:18:17.960 cortisol and that's the only 1.00

00:18:20.160 thing available because I get in some stupid 1.00

00:18:21.940 fight that I don't need 1.00

00:18:23.020 so every time you

00:18:25.900 fall into the trap that the

00:18:27.980 people on the other side of you politically

00:18:30.180 are broken problem

00:18:32.280 monsters and they must

00:18:34.040 be defeated just remember

00:18:35.820 that's your addiction talking

00:18:38.100 That's your addiction talking.

00:18:39.880 It's just like if you were on fentanyl

00:18:41.600 and you had an opinion that the fentanyl had given you.

00:18:45.520 Like, oh, it doesn't really hurt me.

00:18:47.360 You know, whatever the fentanyl tells you to think.

00:18:50.340 Right?

00:18:50.900 So it's just the dopamine that's making you talk.

00:18:55.220 Once you realize this is a reframe, by the way.

00:18:57.860 By the way, if you didn't know,

00:18:58.860 I wrote an amazing best-selling book

00:19:02.180 that you can buy right now in all its forms.

00:19:05.100 Pretty soon we'll have the hardcover in days.

00:19:10.940 So here's the reform.

00:19:12.860 The reframe is you're addicted to dopamine.

00:19:15.880 There is no division in the country.

00:19:19.440 And you know when I said the DeSantis people

00:19:23.060 are coming after me with weird,

00:19:26.460 you know, just flailing claims about Vivek

00:19:30.480 that don't pan out, in my opinion.

00:19:32.040 I don't feel bad about them

00:19:35.700 and I don't feel that they're my enemies

00:19:37.460 because you know I would be perfectly happy

00:19:39.720 with a President DeSantis

00:19:40.800 they're definitely not on the other team for me

00:19:43.880 but at the moment they're acting out

00:19:45.940 and the acting out to me

00:19:47.860 looks like they're desperately

00:19:49.440 searching for dopamine

00:19:50.880 because they're having a negative

00:19:53.780 probably a dopamine

00:19:55.180 disadvantage

00:19:56.800 because their candidate's not killing it right now

00:19:59.480 and Vivek is

00:20:01.120 So if you see it as some people having a dopamine emergency,

00:20:05.380 that they were all happy that, oh, I picked the right one this time.

00:20:10.880 Imagine, I mean, I guess I have to imagine it because I didn't do it.

00:20:14.380 Imagine if I thought DeSantis was going to carry me over the line to victory,

00:20:19.040 and then it just all fell apart, or it looks like it's falling apart.

00:20:24.280 You wouldn't feel good, and you'd probably act out, and that's what we're seeing.

00:20:28.540 so just remember you're an addict you're not somebody who has division with anybody in the

00:20:36.840 country i love it i love it i i almost don't even want to say anything more about it because

00:20:49.320 it's just so perfect and i love imagining that there is no division in the country

00:20:56.380 and that we're just addicted to the dopamine.

00:20:59.160 And maybe some people are addicted to cortisol.

00:21:01.660 I mean, that could happen too.

00:21:04.080 So Marcella, I'm going to come to you first.

00:21:06.080 You know, what do you want to say about that?

00:21:10.580 I mean, it is true what he's saying

00:21:15.640 because you always see people arguing online,

00:21:19.380 but that same people,

00:21:21.400 if you were to put them in front of each other,

00:21:23.480 they would not be doing that.

00:21:26.380 either because in person it takes the cortisol goes up i guess or it the stakes are higher

00:21:33.980 when you have to actually be in person however uh in california there is you when you're here

00:21:42.220 as a conservative you do have to um try to get along uh with the other side otherwise it would

00:21:52.540 be impossible to live here so um but the other side if they ever find out you're conservative

00:21:58.940 you hear from them in person without any dopamine hit that you should be cancelled or this or that

00:22:06.700 or the other or how dare you and so on and so forth so that's just my take sometimes it's not

00:22:13.820 even political division it's like division on anything i mean i feel like you know online

00:22:20.380 we're fighting about anything and everything and it doesn't even have to be political it's like

00:22:26.780 you know i like chunky peanut butter i like smooth peanut butter it's like anything to

00:22:31.580 argue and i think if we look at that as an addiction maybe i mean myself included i'm one

00:22:39.740 of the sassiest people out there but i'm gonna try to look at that like as a dopamine addiction

00:22:45.980 that maybe I need to back off of a little bit, listen, don't get me wrong. I can't help what I

00:22:52.060 can't help, but I'm going to try to think about it a little bit. Yeah. And what you're saying just

00:22:57.200 came to me as, you know, regarding whether, you know, what peanut butter you like or what

00:23:03.140 sandwiches or whatever it is, coffee, et cetera. A lot of it is distraction for people. They have

00:23:10.780 their own problems in their lives, you know, I assume, and they rather deal with things online

00:23:17.780 or get in an argument with someone online, uh, then rather than, than take ownership and deal

00:23:23.560 with their own problems. So it's kind of like, uh, sort of like a pseudo therapy.

00:23:29.100 Yeah, it's true. It's a distraction. All, I think all of social media is a distraction.

00:23:33.880 We're so distracted that like, I, you know, we're not even really touching grass anymore. And I mean,

00:23:39.080 we are, but not like we used to. What do you say, Owen? I think it's brilliant what Scott said. And

00:23:45.800 I think it's a classic example of him using his economics background and his knowledge of

00:23:52.240 psychology and kind of using that economics frame to explain what's going on. But

00:23:55.800 everything's based on incentives. Everything's based on where do you get your rewards from,

00:24:03.700 where do you get your punishments from, and how do you work to try and get more rewards and less

00:24:08.820 punishment and i think that definitely drives a lot of human behavior and i think social media

00:24:15.160 is very much set up to do that very intentionally to you know get you reward or make you feel

00:24:22.320 rewarded get you that dopamine hit when you get lots of likes or lots of reposts and great replies

00:24:28.120 and when you get all sorts of crap back you get some of the stress or you know that sort of thing

00:24:34.200 And I think they very much have applied that across all social media, not just X, about, you know, how do we keep people addicted to this application?

00:24:45.380 I mean, there's some lawsuits going on right now about that, that Meta and I think it might have been Meta and Google, I think, are involved with that.

00:24:55.060 And, um, you know, it's, it's, I think it is very true that at least that they designed

00:25:02.260 those applications to addict you. And so they went deep in psychology and figured out, okay,

00:25:10.440 based on all these different characteristics of people, how do we personalize things for people?

00:25:14.180 How do we give them the things that are going to keep them coming back? How do we keep them

00:25:17.660 engaging? How do we keep them replying and posting? Um, and that's all about how do we

00:25:23.360 give them out that dopamine hit you know the infinite scroll and you know like there's always

00:25:27.360 something more to look at and there's another dopamine hit right around the corner and um

00:25:31.880 you know so i think it's very true that the online environment encourages that kind of behavior and

00:25:39.020 i also think um and some people point this out from time to time that it's like x isn't real life

00:25:44.660 and you know there's one reaction to that that's like well yes it is these are real people saying

00:25:51.100 what they feel but um the the view of reality you get from x i think is very different than if you

00:25:59.640 just walk down the street and talk to people or you know what you see in your personal life or at

00:26:04.780 work or any of that it's very different than what you see online people don't behave the same way

00:26:09.880 um and they probably don't even have the same views and certainly they're probably not at the

00:26:16.840 same level of political knowledge and following and all of that. So I think X and all social

00:26:24.700 media, I think can give you a very distorted view of reality and make you think that something is a

00:26:29.680 much bigger issue than it is, or that people really care about something when maybe some few

00:26:34.300 people do, but not that many. It's just this vocal minority that makes it seem like something is the

00:26:40.280 consensus view. And they may be very intentionally trying to create that fake consensus view. So

00:26:45.260 i think it's all brilliant i think he's spot on always yeah i think uh i actually i don't have

00:26:51.120 many friends that are even on x and it's funny because i'll be like oh did you see or hear blah

00:26:57.940 blah blah and it could be the most crazy shit happening in our country they have zero clue 0.96

00:27:04.820 and i remember cernovich talking about this i i forget what the what the crisis du jour was but 0.93

00:27:11.200 he's like, you know, I got on an airplane with like all this mayhem happening on Twitter and

00:27:16.860 it's the end of the world and whatever. And he's like, I got on an airplane and people are just

00:27:20.820 shitty chatting. They're watching their movie. Nobody was talking about this. So we do have to 0.90

00:27:25.920 realize I, first of all, I do think if you're on X, you are more informed because I do feel like,

00:27:32.980 tell me if you agree with me, you guys, that I feel like all decisions that are happening,

00:27:39.280 like on a worldwide level are stemming from X, like what the discussions are on X besides,

00:27:46.080 you know, behind closed doors. But I feel like X really drives everything. And then when you

00:27:52.260 realize, I mean, what's the percentage of people that even use X, it is tiny. And then of the

00:27:58.120 people that I do know that are on X, they don't even know like the accounts to follow that are

00:28:04.960 really the influential, like influencing like administrations and countries. So it's a very

00:28:11.960 small group of people and we're so dug in on it. Like our emotions are going to change something

00:28:18.220 and they're not, you know, they're not going to change anything. Like it might feel good in a

00:28:22.580 second to be flipping out about something or whatever. But when you walk away from your

00:28:27.680 computer or your app or whatever, like your world's still existing around you. And it's like,

00:28:33.080 you got yourself all worked up and crazy and it's not going to change anything. So I just think it's

00:28:38.820 just to be careful of the addiction of it, just to remember we're like all going through this

00:28:44.540 stuff at the same time and we just have different opinions. And I think at the end of the day,

00:28:50.100 if anybody was, you know, drowning and I could help them, I'm not going to ask them what they

00:28:55.560 think about abortion or who do they vote for. I'm going to help them. I'm not going to throw

00:29:00.200 them a turkey sandwich. So let's just remember about the addictions too. I hope you enjoyed

00:29:05.700 having a clip of Scott. We're going to do that more often. So I think that was special today,

00:29:10.580 but I do want to get to news. Okay. I promise that we'd get to news by the halfway mark.

00:29:15.480 So Owen and Marcella have brought some stories for us and I think, Owen, you're kicking it off

00:29:20.880 today, right? I certainly can. So there's a new study that CO2 is effectively negligible as an

00:29:27.500 explanatory climate change factor since 2000. There's a new regression analysis that shows

00:29:33.840 natural changes in cloud. Albedo, which I think, I'll think albedo is like how much sun is reflected

00:29:39.740 off the ice and off the clouds, absorbs shortwave forcing and solar activity drive climate change

00:29:46.740 since 2000, not CO2. Anthropogenic, meaning from people, CO2 has almost no explanatory power

00:29:53.580 power as a causal factor. And this independent researcher, Dai Ato from Japan, used global

00:30:00.580 temperature, humidity, solar, and albedo data. And it reaffirms conclusions from prior works,

00:30:06.500 like, I forget, I can't pronounce this name. It's a Greek name, Koutsoianis in 2024 and soon

00:30:14.380 at all in 2023. So it looks like basically the natural forces are explaining all the CO2 or all

00:30:23.500 climate change and co2 doesn't really make any difference um so i know scott if he got into the

00:30:30.300 story of course would say i'm laughing wait until you find out about climate models uh-huh

00:30:36.920 i cringed when you said co2 immediately

00:30:40.500 i love that okay marcella so meanwhile ice is cooling things at the airport

00:30:50.380 um president trump ordered deploying sorry for laughing at my own dad joke uh president trump

00:30:58.700 ordered deploying over 100 ice agents there are 13 major u.s airports some of them are

00:31:04.780 um i believe long beach i don't know lax but i believe lax jfk hartfield jackson atlanta

00:31:12.940 to address the tsa staffing shortage as you guys know there's a dhs funding issue

00:31:19.060 Um, the Democrats and the Republicans have, uh, come to a fight in regards to funding DHS talked

00:31:28.860 about it before. So the funny part about this is that yesterday, the news here locally in Los

00:31:36.280 Angeles went out to, I believe, Long Beach airport, uh, to try to get, um, some interviews

00:31:42.440 from passengers waiting in line and wanting to know what they thought of ICE and having ICE

00:31:51.040 do TSA work. And everybody that they interviewed, they could not find one bad comment.

00:31:58.520 So it was funny. They couldn't do any kind of negative news. Some people have said it's a

00:32:05.280 triumph of Trump to use ICE agents and also have them near people so that they can see that they're

00:32:16.420 not so bad, that they're not bad at all. So Trump was asked about this yesterday at the press gaggle,

00:32:25.600 as we would call it, when he was leaving. And he said that it was his idea and no one else's

00:32:34.160 to have ICE agents be there at their reports for helping the TSA staffing shortage.

00:32:42.280 But he also had done a truth post about it saying that he would want the ICE agents to not wear a

00:32:50.980 mask and to show their face. And I think it's very persuasive of him. It's a persuasive move

00:32:57.480 in my, and what Scott would take it as is that he wanted the public to come close to

00:33:04.660 ICE agents and see them in a positive light.

00:33:07.980 Um, you not waiting in line for three hours, um, instead waiting in line for 20 minutes

00:33:14.620 or 15 minutes, that, that gives you that visual effect and, uh, there's nothing like it.

00:33:22.440 Um, as we know, uh, with persuasion, visual is everything or fear.

00:33:29.640 So, but in this case, it actually solved the issue.

00:33:34.000 There was, uh, Nick Sorter, Sorter, Sortor, I don't know how to pronounce

00:33:39.380 the same, sorry, I'm doing the Scott Nick, Nick Sorter, Sorter.

00:33:43.980 Thank you, Erica.

00:33:45.360 Um, he had an image of, uh, like one of the airports with the huge lines

00:33:50.520 And then the image afterwards, after ICE was deployed with no lines.

00:33:55.140 So it was like, here you go.

00:33:57.100 There's the visual.

00:33:58.820 But I love that.

00:34:01.180 And it's just so funny because the exact thing the Democrats are pissed off about, which is ICE.

00:34:09.800 They're this is it's all fake anyway.

00:34:12.500 But, you know, ICE is already funded for like the next however many years.

00:34:17.020 So it's like, listen, ICE is already funded.

00:34:18.780 so okay and what i don't get is they they got what they wanted in one way because noam got

00:34:25.940 fired from her position um and now ice is saving the problem of tsa at the airports people are

00:34:34.460 like oh they're really nice you know they they put the uh ice in nice so it's just kind of

00:34:40.740 backfiring and here's ice taking over and getting the flow going i don't know i i feel like the the

00:34:47.840 the Democrats. I mean, and Hakeem Jeffries, wow. How inappropriate to, did you guys hear when he

00:34:56.300 said that ICE is going to end up like shooting people at the airport and killing people? I'm

00:35:02.860 like, you really should, you should be tossed out of office. I think stuff like that should get you

00:35:08.340 tossed out. Like when you're creating hysteria, that could be like mass hysteria. I think you

00:35:14.660 should get demoted or dethroned or whatever it is, because that was so irresponsible. And why

00:35:20.740 would you want to paint, you know, government workers like that? I mean, these people are

00:35:25.460 already doing a dangerous job and now you're, you know, I don't know. It makes me feel icky.

00:35:30.060 What do you think? Oh, yeah. Well, I think it is a brilliant stroke on Trump's part because he,

00:35:36.900 you know, this is an example back to what Scott was saying earlier about how we're, you know,

00:35:41.300 people are impacted when you've got to stand in line for four hours. They're going to remember

00:35:46.540 that. And they're going to say, why am I standing in line for four hours? And I think everybody

00:35:51.200 pretty much agrees, even on the Democrat side, have admitted that the Democrats are the one

00:35:55.660 causing this problem by not funding DHS. And so that is something that really could move the

00:36:03.620 needle politically. Just having hundreds of people in an airport waiting around for four hours and

00:36:10.020 maybe missing their flight. They're going to remember that. They're honestly probably not

00:36:15.140 going to remember the Iran war six months from now, if it's over soon. But they're going to 1.00

00:36:20.860 remember that they had to wait in line for four hours. And Trump just with a stroke of a pen

00:36:26.600 solved the problem. Just instantly the lines are cleared. And so I think it's a brilliant

00:36:31.360 move on his part. I think it kind of embarrasses the Democrats that he was able to do it.

00:36:36.120 and I don't know if it's going to make any difference in terms of how they're going to

00:36:40.700 respond in terms of the funding itself. But at the same time, Trump is saying he won't sign the

00:36:46.660 funding until he gets the Save America Act. So we'll have to see if maybe it shifts over to Trump

00:36:52.160 being the one holding up the DHS funding. But I think it's something where it really does make

00:36:59.860 a difference to people and um you know it causes a ripple effect through the economy probably too

00:37:06.000 because i'm sure people who don't have to fly are probably saying it's not a good time to fly

00:37:09.240 maybe they'll start now now that they don't have the expectation that they got to plan four hours

00:37:14.760 in advance to get to the airport um but it's a it's a big deal to people yeah and i mean he's

00:37:21.080 clearing this up before spring well spring break's going on but it's continuing to go on and then

00:37:26.620 there's Easter. So thank you to President Trump for finding a solution for this, for the people

00:37:33.820 that do want to go see their families or take their vacations. But the Democrats, it's just

00:37:39.980 like this. They make you realize, I mean, everything makes me realize that they're just

00:37:45.080 working within their own bubble. They don't think about anybody else but themselves. This is not a

00:37:50.120 newsflash, like I understand, but it's like really sad because we were supposed to, or we're

00:37:55.540 pretending that we elect people that are going to have the best interest of us, of we, the people

00:38:01.200 and our country. And it's just all about a power play. And for what though, like, what is the power

00:38:08.300 you're getting? And I mean, but that is a real thing. Like, what is the power you're getting?

00:38:12.700 You have to really follow it through. Like, what's the end goal? Like, why are they doing

00:38:16.240 these things? Why would they want us to be in more danger during a war? And when we just had

00:38:22.780 open borders for years and there's all sorts of terror cells here and bad hombres and everything

00:38:28.960 else. So I don't know. I mean, I try to follow and track it. Maybe you guys in the chat have

00:38:35.080 an opinion of what the end goal is. I mean, even if it's like, oh, Democrats just want these people

00:38:39.980 to vote for Democrats, but like for what? Like what's the end goal? So if we get a Democrat

00:38:45.120 house senate and and uh president what's gonna happen because i feel like democrat voters need

00:38:53.400 to understand what the outcome is that they want and then work backwards from there so i feel like

00:38:58.520 we need to figure that out and go backwards from there and what everybody's life would look like

00:39:03.280 including democrats and then maybe that could help bring us together anyone have a thought on that

00:39:09.000 and i mean democrats really um don't work like they don't work on reason um so when we talk

00:39:21.440 about motivation like having less of a line leads you to this and that and so forth progress in a

00:39:28.540 certain linear thinking that's not how they work um they don't think of motivation they just think

00:39:35.760 of platitudes and collectivism and this is what's going to lead for the we must sacrifice ourselves

00:39:43.920 for this idea that uh immigrants should stay here um and so forth and so on so what do you think

00:39:54.540 i'm worried i i mean i always say i'm worried you guys like i i'm worried but like i live in a state

00:40:01.680 of worry. I don't know why. But what do you think the end goal is? I mean, platitudes, yeah, but

00:40:07.540 for what? What if they get all of that? What happens? I think for Democrat politicians,

00:40:14.440 I think the goal is to get back in power. I think everything is geared from that lens. How can we

00:40:19.400 get back in power? And so I think based on that, they're going to resist everything Trump does.

00:40:23.980 They're going to try and paint it all as horrible no matter what he does, even if it is an 80-20

00:40:27.700 the issue that everybody else agrees with. They're going to try and say, look at the 20%, 0.96

00:40:32.060 look at the, you know, look at the bad part. Um, and they're going to try and, um, find any way

00:40:39.380 they can to convince people to vote for them. But I think they do it in a very misguided way

00:40:44.900 because I think they're mostly just, um, pandering to their base. And by their base, I mean, the

00:40:51.220 fringe fringe left. Like they, they, they keep shifting further left. Um, cause that seems to

00:40:58.120 be the, the ones that are most rabidly opposed to Trump and most aligned with all the arguments 0.97

00:41:03.100 they end up coming up with to say, Oh, look how horrible Trump is. And look how everything he 0.93

00:41:08.540 does is bad. Um, the, the moderates, they're not, they're not appealing to those people from what

00:41:14.660 I can tell. I mean, it, it doesn't seem like they really understand or they're not very smart about

00:41:18.660 saying, you know what, we need to shift towards the center. We need to connect with the people

00:41:24.500 that would otherwise vote for Trump and might be convinced not to. And in the midterms,

00:41:31.620 of course, it's more about Congress, but the same concept applies. And of course,

00:41:35.140 Trump still dominates all the headlines every day. So it's going to be part of the equation

00:41:39.940 there. But I think I agree with what Marcelo said. I think they're more just based on their

00:41:45.060 ideological lens on things, but they're also more based on just how they feel or how they

00:41:53.340 think people feel. And they're often very out of line with the vast majority of the country

00:41:59.520 because they have this knee-jerk reaction where whatever Trump does, they have to oppose it,

00:42:03.900 no matter how unpopular taking that view is. So when more than half the country thinks all

00:42:10.640 the immigrant should go home or when it's even more skewed where maybe 80% of the people think

00:42:16.160 we should have voter ID or 70% or whatever, it's up there. They just don't care. They just want to

00:42:24.360 have that oppositional position. And I think it is because they're not really able to think with

00:42:32.380 reason and say what would make the most sense. So I think it's overall a good thing for the

00:42:37.480 Republicans that things are that way because I think they would be a much tougher opponent if

00:42:42.300 they were shifting more towards the center and if they were trying to have a positive message and

00:42:46.700 if they had a good vision for the future instead of just being I'm against whatever that Trump guy

00:42:51.260 said. But at the same time, I am worried about the midterms just because it seems like the way

00:43:00.460 the maps are set up and the way that all the gerrymandering has gone through, it seems like

00:43:06.640 it puts Democrats in a position where they still probably have a very high probability of taking

00:43:11.380 control of the House and maybe even the Senate. So I think that's where our focus should be is to

00:43:16.360 say, how can we appeal to that independent voter or that person that might've been thinking or

00:43:24.480 leaning towards voting for a Democrat and how do we convince them to vote for the Republican?

00:43:30.680 And that may mean shifting a little further to the center again, like not being so fringe right

00:43:36.040 on things. I don't really see a lot of, you know, I don't see a lot of the Republican politicians

00:43:43.620 that are running in Congress being that, you know, like really far hard right. But I do think

00:43:51.040 you want to, you know, talk about the good things, talk about the positive future, talk about all the

00:43:55.520 great economic things. Cause that to me is, is probably still going to be the dominant factor.

00:44:00.900 What does the stock market look like? What does the job picture look like? What does the housing

00:44:04.420 market look like? How affordable are things? What is the price of gas at the pump? Like those are

00:44:08.460 going to be the things that I think will determine the outcome of the midterms. And so I think those

00:44:15.080 are the things we need to focus on this year. I think you're right. Marcella, can I put you

00:44:21.060 on the spot? I don't know if you have anything about the Supreme Court talking about election

00:44:26.360 day or if you heard anything about it, but I just heard very briefly and like this is hopeful too,

00:44:32.160 is that I think it was, uh, justice Thomas saying like, listen, you know, you're talking

00:44:37.360 about election day, Memorial day, veterans day. And he said, you know, I think it should be a day.

00:44:44.280 And he said, if that's all I had to go by for, you know, figuring out about, you know, when you

00:44:49.800 can vote talking about mail-in votes, because they wanted to be able to certify them five days

00:44:55.360 after the election ended was like the argument. And they were, you know, so I feel like that was

00:45:01.680 little convoluted but maybe marcella can clean up what i'm trying to say so well yesterday there

00:45:07.440 was arguments in front of the supreme court for a case uh that was in regards to mail mail-in

00:45:14.080 ballots where there they count after they are received after the election day whether it's

00:45:21.680 by election day or what does by election they mean and what is on election they mean

00:45:26.960 and whether that those those those states that allow mail-in ballots to be counted after election

00:45:33.660 is that constitutional does that violate anything and um i don't really comment on supreme court

00:45:41.580 cases when there when an argument is made because it doesn't really matter in regards to the opinion

00:45:47.740 that the supreme court might have um it has come to times where when an argument is made in front

00:45:56.580 of the Supreme Court, you're looking at the justices asking certain questions or finding

00:46:05.140 things you could, it's like reading tea leaves, tea leaves, because it doesn't always pan

00:46:12.080 out to be the final opinion that is created by the Supreme Court. So that's how I would

00:46:19.560 caution it. However, yesterday, the way that all of the justices were pointing is that

00:46:25.980 they were in agreement, the mail-in voting ballots should not be allowed after the election

00:46:32.060 day. But there's behind the scenes, there's like lots of people behind the justices that

00:46:42.320 have to do the research, they have to put all the opinions together and figure out and

00:46:47.640 they'll meet up and they'll converse in writing or however it is. And then they figure out

00:46:57.920 where each justice is in regards to their opinion. So to be determined, and it's going

00:47:05.660 to usually be in June when they get released or-

00:47:10.080 I will say it does seem like they're leaning towards saying you can't count ballots after

00:47:15.620 election day. Um, you know, one of the justices, I think it might've been Alito, I can't remember

00:47:21.140 was putting forth like a hypothetical saying, well, what happens if, you know, a bunch of

00:47:26.320 these ballots are still being delivered. They haven't been delivered yet. And, um, like some

00:47:33.340 news comes out the day after election day that might swing the result, meaning like, you know,

00:47:38.080 the person they voted for, they no longer want to vote for, they want to switch their vote or

00:47:42.080 they don't want to vote for that person. And they could potentially call up FedEx or something

00:47:47.760 that's delivering their ballot and say, don't deliver that ballot. And FedEx will do that.

00:47:51.800 Usually they'll say, if you don't want your package delivered, we won't deliver your package.

00:47:56.980 And so they could potentially pull their votes after election day based on something that

00:48:02.300 happened after election day. And he was putting forth this hypothetical, like what if enough of

00:48:07.280 those things would change the result of the election, then it's not really election day

00:48:11.440 anymore because it's something that happened after the election. And so I think he was trying

00:48:17.520 to show essentially that this could potentially have a really bad result. And it isn't the

00:48:24.540 intention of the constitution to say, you can make up your mind whenever you want, even after

00:48:28.840 election day to not vote, even after you mailed in your ballot. And so it does seem to me like

00:48:35.400 enough of the conservative justices on the majority are going to vote to say you can't

00:48:40.240 count ballots that arrive after election day. But we'll have to see exactly where it lands,

00:48:44.240 as Marcella said. My opinion that nobody's asking for is that it should be a national holiday.

00:48:51.640 You have to have ID to vote. And like you do it on that day. And even if if people are like far

00:49:00.680 from voting places. It's a holiday. It's a national holiday. Get yourself there. I know

00:49:05.860 that might sound mean, but then when people are like, oh, and some people can't get IDs. Well,

00:49:11.640 if you can't get an ID, then you're too stupid to vote. I'm not even kidding. If you don't know 1.00

00:49:16.240 how to get an ID, how could you possibly make an opinion about what's right or wrong for this

00:49:20.660 country? I don't want stupid people voting. I don't care. I will tell you that my wife, 1.00

00:49:27.440 who is very much a democrat agrees with you on wanting it to be a national holiday um i don't

00:49:33.080 know if she would agree with you on the voter id piece but i think um you know i certainly do and

00:49:39.080 i think it is still striking to me when they've done these on the street interviews and stuff

00:49:44.000 where you know black people will be like of course i have an id what do you mean like it's

00:49:48.240 like you know i can find the city hall where i can get my birth certificate like what what the 0.99

00:49:52.540 hell. This is like basic stuff. You can't get a Costco without one. You can't do anything.

00:49:59.340 If you can't figure out how to get a state ID, then how do you function in life? You can't.

00:50:05.380 You need it for so many things. Just opening a bank account. Everybody needs to have an ID.

00:50:13.720 You needed them to buy cigarettes at some point if you smoked or drank.

00:50:16.220 I don't think they've been able to find one example of somebody that said,

00:50:19.660 i can't get an id or i don't know how to get like they can't they can't find even one person

00:50:25.340 that says don't forget the poor women owen but the issue here is um i hear you guys but the issue

00:50:33.980 here is that ids themselves don't prove you're a citizen so that's what um i was listening to

00:50:41.020 senator mike lee on spaces with um the redhead the retarian josey and he somebody came up to

00:50:49.820 you know to talk to him and then the issue is that some ids uh driver's licenses um

00:50:57.820 especially in california or anywhere else they're given to non-citizens um to drive like if you are

00:51:05.500 legal resident or even possibly illegal you can get a driver's license but would the save america

00:51:13.300 act fix that would would the save america act have some kind of citizenship check as part of

00:51:18.860 the process yeah so the save america act doesn't talk about ids per se it talks about birth

00:51:24.100 certificate or passport that's what you would have to show you would have to show birth

00:51:30.280 and that's to be registered to vote right to register to vote yes when you come in to do

00:51:37.580 the the actual um you know even to register to vote you have to have the birth certificate

00:51:44.220 or aka or if you're not if you're naturalized or you don't have your birth certificate your

00:51:51.540 passport and then your id as well so you need a voter registration card which that will make

00:51:57.220 sure that you are a resident if you have that yeah that you're a citizen yeah okay it gets

00:52:02.440 complicated i guess so and so it's like it's even if the save america act passes there's still this

00:52:08.520 other side to it i would say the same thing about being able to get your birth certificate or being

00:52:14.260 able to get a passport like anybody can do that and most likely you already had to because like

00:52:22.140 they have employment checks that require those things, right? Like you have to show that you're

00:52:27.800 able to work. And I know there's other conditions that like you can be a permanent resident or you

00:52:32.440 can have a work permit or some other thing, but like you already need that kind of documentation

00:52:37.460 just to function in life. And, and, you know, I have a whole stack of birth certificates for

00:52:42.720 my kids because every time they would join like baseball, like, like little league, they, they

00:52:49.360 would need a birth certificate to show how old they are and and so i i went downtown and i got

00:52:54.480 like 50 copies and now they have birth certificates and anytime they need one they can come to me and

00:53:01.040 i have a file full of them and i got more of my own and i got my merit certificate and i got all

00:53:05.960 that stuff and i i currently do need to renew my passport but i i've had passports multiple times

00:53:11.760 it's not hard to do and um so i don't think it i don't think there's any argument that it's too

00:53:18.000 hard for people to vote or that it would disenfranchise people. Because I think these

00:53:22.940 are just basic things that you probably already have. The vast majority of people already have

00:53:26.880 these documents. And if you don't, you need them anyway for other reasons. So you should go get

00:53:32.340 them. Drop an emoji in the chat if you want Owen to manage your life because I do. Oh my God,

00:53:40.440 that is so organized. And also, you know, so and if you can't go, I'm going to say it this way,

00:53:46.780 then if you can't go figure out how to get your birth certificate or whatever it is you need,

00:53:50.620 I don't want you to vote. You're stupid. Okay. Like this is just, you're stupid. So that's all 1.00

00:53:55.840 I want to do. But again, I think this is more about, you know, preventing people from pretending

00:54:00.140 they're somebody else or preventing people from getting registered to vote based on having one

00:54:06.440 of these IDs that doesn't really prove you're a citizen and then getting added to the voter rolls,

00:54:10.480 which apparently has happened a lot of times because we've had enough evidence come out that

00:54:14.900 these things are happening. And to me, it's not about like, is it happening enough? Is it

00:54:21.260 happening? It just shouldn't happen at all. And as Scott has often said, it's important for us

00:54:28.760 to be confident that our elections are secure and that it's at least plausible that the person who

00:54:37.180 actually did get the most votes from the people that should have been able to vote. And if you

00:54:42.340 don't have that, it just degrades the confidence anybody has in the system. And we're in such a

00:54:48.100 bad state with that, where nobody really trusts that our elections are secure. Nobody really

00:54:53.300 trusts that we aren't having all these shenanigans happening all over the place.

00:54:58.560 And mail-in ballots is the worst example of that, where it's like, you know, you never see the

00:55:03.100 person, you don't know who actually filled out the ballot. And so, you know, how do you trust

00:55:09.540 that the leaders we have in Congress are the actual people that got the most votes or that

00:55:15.460 people want to be the leaders. We don't. Marcela? I was just going to, there's a lot of people in

00:55:20.920 the chat talking about the real ID. The real ID, according to Senator Mike Lee and in that chat,

00:55:28.000 in that space, people brought up the real ID. And in some states, the real ID, you can

00:55:33.380 obtain it without proof of citizenship. So it technically kind of makes it a little more

00:55:40.880 complicated for the Save America Act. But, but, you know, again, he said, you know, anybody can

00:55:46.220 get a birth certificate, anybody can get a passport is not difficult to do. So, you know,

00:55:54.300 like Erica said, if you're, if you can't figure that out, you know, maybe you shouldn't be voting.

00:56:00.060 I'm just saying, um, and every other country in the world has this as, uh, I can't vote in France

00:56:07.900 just showing up and going, Oh, I have no ID. Right. And you can't get healthcare there either.

00:56:14.400 Um, just so you know, you guys, the real ID, if you, if you go to the airport, it's such a scam.

00:56:20.960 They're like, Oh, let me see your real ID. And I said, I don't have a real ID. Cause I'm just

00:56:25.580 not going to get one. And then they're like, well, just so you know, starting next week,

00:56:29.600 it's $40. So if I don't have my real ID, they're satisfied with $40 for some reason,

00:56:37.000 or I can use my passport. So I'm just letting you know, I don't know what the point of it is.

00:56:41.860 Like you could either have your real ID or give them $40, whatever works. So you tell me how that

00:56:46.620 make sense but whatever so you guys we just have three minutes left all right well i will mention

00:56:55.480 that stocks are now positive so you're allowed to look at your stocks now okay that's good to know
