00:02:11.320 was on a locals with us one evening um like so we're both friends with michael malice and

00:02:18.140 for some reason, Michael Malice has a sea creature. I was going to say fetish, but that's

00:02:31.880 like a little sea creature. Um, of course you guys, I'm throwing rumble out the window today.

00:02:37.860 Okay. So this won't even matter because I, okay, let's hope this is it. So I saw this sea creature

00:02:44.980 and I was like, oh my God, immediately I must tag Michael Malice in this. And so funny,

00:02:49.940 because when I went to it, I saw that Lisa had just tagged Michael Malice in it. So I was like,

00:02:55.680 okay, well, this is my little creature feature of the morning. Okay, here it is. This is, oh,

00:03:01.620 by the way, this is called, so it's a deep sea, deep sea isopod believed to be, let me read it,

00:03:10.340 the bath of bathyopasaurus nibbellini okay so shout out to people who love it

00:03:32.580 it's rather elegant in a clumsy kind of way

00:03:37.060 she's out there vibing doing its own thing i like i like the arms it's like jazz hands like

00:03:45.860 two sets of jazz hands with a little tutu oh oh oh i didn't see that going me either

00:03:53.380 the music is everything and that music's actually down there like when you go when you go down

00:04:03.060 there you know with james cameron or whoever like that's what's playing interesting i did not know

00:04:08.780 that either all right so goodbye cute creature i don't know why but i was obsessed with that and i

00:04:16.580 thought that's that's got to be that's got to be on the scott adams school so shout out michael

00:04:21.480 malice a sea creature just for you um jeff owen how have you guys been owen how was your day

00:04:28.720 yesterday we missed you it was good busy just had to do some work so taking care of the day job

00:04:35.120 ah yes yes the day job um jeff we missed you how's the farming going and the chickens and

00:04:42.620 all that good stuff yeah i was just telling you backstage that uh we've got some blackberry bushes

00:04:47.620 and we went to the store last night to get some stuff to support those blackberry bushes so that

00:04:52.660 they can grow how they need to grow and we can harvest some berries before too long so is this

00:04:58.580 the first blackberry endeavor yeah like uh we've never grown blackberries before and and our our

00:05:05.560 neighbor dropped off a bucket of blackberry shoots and was like hey you know plant as many as you

00:05:10.180 want and we're like okay and so we planted a few and we'll said to ourselves we'll see how it goes

00:05:15.080 and those things want to grow and and so uh they're getting to the point now where they we need to

00:05:21.140 create a lattice sort of situation so that they can actually grow appropriately instead of what i

00:05:26.980 guys willy-nilly all over the place. All right. So drop your favorite berry in the chat. Mine is

00:05:33.140 the blackberry. So I want to see your favorite berries. Oh, and what's your favorite berry?

00:05:38.960 I would say blueberry. Oh yeah. I peg you for a blueberry. What about you, Jeff?

00:05:43.440 I tried to grow some blueberry bushes, but they never took. I think maybe the rabbits got to them

00:05:47.600 too quickly. I love blueberry bushes. We have a few and every year we'll typically get a bucket

00:05:53.260 or two of blueberries but uh we had a really late frost and uh i don't know i don't know if we're

00:05:58.760 gonna get any this year because we had like a frost that took out uh maybe all of our blueberries

00:06:04.900 but we'll see a lot of people like chuck berry boysenberry strawberries ball berries uh all

00:06:13.500 right so you guys fun fact about the strawberry if i have to know you have to know the little

00:06:18.380 seeds on the exterior of a strawberry are ovaries. You're welcome. Hasn't stopped me

00:06:27.040 from having them, but I had to know you have to know. Okay. Mary and Barry. Oh, shout out Mary

00:06:33.160 and Barry. That was a good one. Okay. So that's the Barry talk. All right. Now I have to get an

00:06:39.820 update from Jeff on Spencer, but he hasn't done, I don't think more video. I think this latest one

00:06:48.640 that I have is sort of sums up what's coming next and it is bad ass. So, um, I'm sure a lot

00:06:54.720 of you have seen this. If you haven't, let's hear from Spencer and then Jeff's going to give us an

00:06:58.960 update. Now that the campaign portion of my mission to save Los Angeles is coming to a close

00:07:04.520 and I'm moving on to the next more interesting phase.

00:07:07.860 Listen, I've spent a lot of time slaying everybody.

00:07:10.840 I've ridiculed everyone on the roster.

00:07:13.280 And I just want to say from the bottom of my heart,

00:07:15.500 I like to take the chance to apologize to absolutely nobody.

00:07:19.440 You think you can get rid of me that easily? 0.99

00:07:21.380 I know a lot of dim-witted jerks thought I was in this for a grift, 0.99

00:07:24.260 that I was going to roll up and leave town if I didn't get into City Hall. 0.99

00:07:27.020 It's just not fair. 1.00

00:07:28.240 Hey, morons, I didn't get in this for political power. 1.00

00:07:30.880 I got in this to expose this corrupt machine and nothing has changed. 1.00

00:07:34.220 You enjoy your worthless meetings in City Hall. 0.92

00:07:36.320 Nithya, you have all this information. 0.96

00:07:37.660 You're running for mayor.

00:07:38.800 Show what you're really about 0.97

00:07:40.480 or get the fuck out of the race. 0.52

00:07:42.340 I want to be lighting you up every single day 0.95

00:07:44.120 and now I don't have to worry about offending CNN viewers.

00:07:46.640 I don't have a campaign.

00:07:47.860 Laws hamstringing me now.

00:07:49.640 It's war.

00:07:51.340 It's zero hour for Los Angeles. 1.00

00:07:53.420 Angelenos are now stuck with two morons 1.00

00:07:55.300 responsible for all their problems 1.00

00:07:56.660 and they have to choose between dumb and dumber. 1.00

00:07:59.140 That's not a choice. 1.00

00:08:00.300 That's the machine protecting the machine.

00:08:01.980 And now every problem that plagues Los Angeles 0.77

00:08:04.120 because of these two corrupt communists is going to accelerate and the city will tumble headlong 0.89

00:08:09.160 into the abyss. You have no idea how many major developers, hoteliers, business owners,

00:08:14.180 entrepreneurs have been texting me saying they're packing up and leaving town. More of your favorite

00:08:18.300 restaurants will be shuttering. That means less tax revenue. That means the city has to cut services,

00:08:22.980 more potholes, less firefighters, less police patrols, more criminals, more drug addicts

00:08:27.540 terrorizing your communities. And we haven't ended it. You have no idea how bad things are

00:08:31.960 about to get for this city. Look at this place already. Weeds growing from every

00:08:35.500 cracking crevice. Graffiti over every square inch of public space. Garbage,

00:08:39.220 drugs, feces, burned up dogs, burned down towns, abandoned storefronts. This city is 1.00

00:08:43.600 a mess and you're about to reward the arsonist who torched a place with four

00:08:47.260 more years of destruction? I know he's very better. My goal hasn't changed. I've

00:08:51.280 been laser focused on stopping these commie animals and I will stop them. If 1.00

00:08:54.520 you think we uncovered a lot of fraud and evil in the campaign, just wait. We

00:08:58.160 have some recordings of one of your exalted candidates doing and saying

00:09:01.180 something that would make her resign in shame. I was saving it for the general election. Go ahead

00:09:05.720 and pick your demon, certify your choice, and then you get to see it. So Karen Nithya, ask yourself,

00:09:10.700 is it possible that one of your employees may have a recording of you doing or saying something

00:09:14.740 that would force you to resign in disgrace? Hope you sleep well at night over the next five months

00:09:19.180 because you know who hasn't slept well at all for the last 17 months? My mom. All my neighbors in

00:09:23.880 the Palisades. All the moms who worry about their kids walking past drug addicts in front of their

00:09:27.800 schools all the business owners getting crushed in the la economy worried that they can't stay 0.78

00:09:31.640 in business and feed their kids angelinos have been struggling for years now all while corrupt

00:09:36.020 politicians and fraudulent ngos profit off the misery and fleece us for the tax dollars well

00:09:40.580 now we're flipping the script i want all of you awake at night sweating and worried about 5 a.m 0.51

00:09:44.700 when the fbi blazers bust in the door breaking open your office because i assure you they're

00:09:49.340 coming you think your election was gonna stop me if you want to stop me you're gonna have to 0.99

00:09:54.000 fucking kill me oh i need a microphone to drop and that last scene with ruthie 0.99

00:10:08.380 oh my god honestly i'm not even kidding i've seen it and i have goosebumps you guys little 0.99

00:10:16.920 goosies. Okay, Jeff, holy shit. Just tell me. I saw this the other day and I shared it and 0.99

00:10:25.200 I quote tweeted it and I said, energy monster, because that's what Spencer Pratt is. In the

00:10:33.160 same tradition of Donald Trump, he has this ability to take whatever the conversation is,

00:10:40.820 build energy around it, and then use it to serve the purpose that he's interested in.

00:10:46.920 And compare that to what a typical sort of concession speech is.

00:10:52.060 I didn't see any concession in that speech other than my campaign's coming to a close, but here's what's going to happen next.

00:11:01.500 And I think it's going to be really interesting to see what he does next.

00:11:06.340 I've heard some whispers that Steve Hilton made, or at least is exploring the option of possibly taking Spencer Pratt on the campaign trail.

00:11:16.880 with him uh and so that would be would be really interesting um and how about the

00:11:23.160 leaked the leaked audio sort of uh stormy cloud hanging over the bass and ramen campaigns because

00:11:32.320 to me it serves two purposes one is you know i have no reason to think he does not have the goods

00:11:38.100 you know he was he was saving it for the general election uh but two it's it's kind of nice from a

00:11:42.960 perspective of it makes them sweat a little bit and think oh well someone on my team is leaking

00:11:47.820 audio uh which you know is i i'm not all that concerned like i think i think uh you know given

00:11:56.220 who who they are and what they've done to la and what they're going to do to la they you know i i

00:12:02.640 have no sympathy for them right uh and so yeah it's a it's a really interesting situation i mean

00:12:08.320 i could watch a feature film of that ad like if they made that two hours i would go to the movie

00:12:14.680 theater and i would watch it oh and what do you just just anything about this well i do think

00:12:20.860 spencer pratt needs to work on his rhyming for his rap he had this nice rap beat but none of it

00:12:26.580 rhymed no i i think it was great i think i loved it um i think he did a great job with it and uh

00:12:33.380 i hope he does rip it up i mean i i think it's ridiculous i do think it's probably they stole

00:12:38.000 election from him and um you know allegedly we don't have evidence of it but i i think we

00:12:44.720 certainly have signs of it and um you know r.i.p to la because i don't see how they're

00:12:51.280 going to recover from this um uh yeah oh whoever just came in late take a sip ready everyone

00:12:57.760 quick sip three two one for the latecomers there you go mm-hmm okay so i mean it does look a lot

00:13:06.480 like same scenario as 2020 okay everyone go to bed then there's like this drop of ballots that are

00:13:14.420 just like all for biden yeah but the you know but they didn't do like the down ballot it was you

00:13:22.140 know it was just so obvious so this was even worse because it wasn't just that they were late mail-in

00:13:27.300 ballots that swung it because to an extent you can kind of see the argument at least that mail-in

00:13:34.600 ballots tend to be more democrats right but the ratio between raman and bass totally changed like

00:13:41.380 radically in that late ballot phase where they already know okay where are the numbers where

00:13:47.800 do we want the numbers to be and they knew where to swing the votes and so it it would make a lot

00:13:54.640 more plausible sense or you could make a better argument to defend it if you said okay look look

00:13:59.300 at what happened with the early mail-in ballots look what happened with the ratio of bass to ramen

00:14:05.060 and it was pretty consistent after that but it's not consistent at all i mean it doesn't make any

00:14:10.680 sense that suddenly you'd have all these late voters that love ramen and none of them showed

00:14:15.820 up in the early voting yeah it's just some things just don't pass the smell test at all

00:14:21.420 and this is one of those things and i i love how people uh raging on behalf of the machine

00:14:28.480 uh just say sort of some variation of shut up and stop questioning things like that's all they have

00:14:34.580 is like oh well you just shouldn't question it and it's just from the people who never shut up

00:14:41.080 it's not even all questions anymore i think someone already pled guilty or at least was

00:14:45.140 charged with getting like skid row homeless people to register to vote and paying them to vote and

00:14:52.240 that some of the skid row people were admitting that that people were paying them to do that so

00:14:56.440 So, yeah, I've seen a lot of evidence that I think is essentially fraud.

00:15:00.200 You know, you're paying people to vote for who you want them to vote for.

00:15:03.240 Well, it's like Scott said, you know, we have a system that is built to be rigged.

00:15:09.860 You can't audit it.

00:15:12.060 You can't there is no safety features to this.

00:15:17.160 So and the Democrats knew that, like I said, a couple of weeks ago, Elizabeth Warren, when

00:15:21.960 they when they were shown the dominion system they were like oh no this isn't good like this

00:15:27.060 isn't safe and secure yet somehow then they signed off on it um so again if you can't trust your

00:15:33.440 elections you can't believe that your vote actually gets counted and matters you don't have anything

00:15:39.460 so you know we're always like oh you know you're upset about this and that the only thing you can

00:15:43.800 do is vote but then when you're like well when i vote it's rigged it's so blatantly rigged i don't

00:15:49.480 I saw somebody in the chat, I think it was you, Sean, saying that you think Spencer going out

00:15:54.820 with Hilton will be bad for Hilton. I don't think so. I don't think so at all. I think L.A.

00:16:02.060 I think L.A. knows it was robbed. And I think that the people who have already put their toe

00:16:07.720 in the pool of being like, hey, I'm out there and I wanted Spencer and I took the bold steps to be

00:16:12.760 like, I'm like coming out of the closet for a Republican, even though he doesn't like flaunt

00:16:17.560 himself as a Republican, they have a lot to lose now. So it would be really interesting because I

00:16:23.700 feel like those people are going to get the resources and the people they know behind this

00:16:27.720 to find out if it was rigged because now they need to save face in Hollywood. So I think everything

00:16:34.340 about what's happening in this election is actually really good for the moving forward of our lives

00:16:40.520 because they put it all out there in plain sight and you can't go back from this now.

00:16:47.280 So people who supported him are out there. The rigging was so obvious and Spencer has nothing

00:16:56.120 to lose now. And he has such great people in his corner and money. I don't know. I see this as a

00:17:03.560 positive. And also Lemon Minty, I still think he's going to win to be the mayor. I don't feel

00:17:10.480 like it's over because it's going to be discovered. That's me. What do you think, Owen? Do you think

00:17:14.940 he still has a chance? I don't know. I mean, it's such a challenge with elections because of,

00:17:22.740 like you said, the system is not auditable. It's not something that courts want to touch. So I'm

00:17:28.280 always pessimistic about any kind of election case because it seems like the courts do everything

00:17:32.600 they can to just stay out of it. And the stuff that happened in Arizona with Carrie Lake was

00:17:37.860 is the biggest example that recently I think where she had like something like 20 different

00:17:42.140 claims and they just said we're throwing out 19 of them without even looking at them and we're

00:17:46.460 going to let you go forward with one so we can just tell you that it doesn't matter because the

00:17:50.160 one isn't enough to swing the result so who cares and it was just blatant and I think the Supreme

00:17:57.300 Court has seemed to want to stay out of things too where they don't want to take those election

00:18:02.000 cases and we had another case i think where someone challenged one of the illegal things

00:18:07.840 that was done in 2020 because a lot of them a lot of it was illegal a lot of it went around the state

00:18:12.320 legislature and it very clearly was not according to election law and the constitution and someone

00:18:17.760 challenged it and said hey we you know we can't do it this way this isn't legal and someone said

00:18:21.120 well it has the election hasn't happened yet so you're doing it too early and then after the

00:18:25.520 election they said fine now they did it we had the election and they said oh now it's too late

00:18:29.360 and it's just ridiculous it's disgusting i don't think we can count on the courts to come to the

00:18:34.000 rescue because i just don't think they will right so all right so in the chat on all the platforms

00:18:39.520 uh all the different um groups here if you're living in california you know in the la area

00:18:46.400 can la survive another four years but like from where they are now it's going to get much worse

00:18:54.480 what you know can they survive another democrat uh administration over there i don't think so so

00:19:03.220 jeff you know i don't see them i can't even imagine like it's so bad you just saw in the

00:19:08.420 video how bad it is and the fact that people are putting up with this and thinking this is the way

00:19:15.900 like this is okay like i should just be living this way because uh democrats i mean

00:19:20.420 aren't we at a breaking point yeah so i just think about the like the frog slowly boiling

00:19:28.240 in the in the water and and i think i think that metaphor holds true when it comes to just

00:19:34.620 decline as a choice because you think about how this conditions slowly deteriorate over time and

00:19:41.800 then no one thinks to take a stand because it's just going little by little and then at a certain

00:19:46.580 point it feels hopeless because they look around and there's a dude with a machete over here people

00:19:52.800 shooting up over here people abusing dogs over there um one one thing i do know like this whole

00:19:58.060 journey for spencer pratt started when his house burned down and so he seems to take tragedy

00:20:05.220 and then manufacture that into something more meaningful and higher impact and so

00:20:11.900 i wonder about getting an election rug pulled from you i wonder uh is this going to catapult

00:20:18.560 him to be president one day you know this is like like the arc is like maybe he ends up being

00:20:24.560 governor at some point like i have a sense that this is only going to fuel him uh it's like rocket

00:20:30.180 fuel for him and he's like he's young he's like he's like an energy monster and he's you know

00:20:37.820 um like just so driven and he always has been from everything i've ever known and read and

00:20:45.020 seen about him for many years you know he's he feeds on this stuff and you know you may have

00:20:51.680 just poked the wrong bear and you know you thought oh he's just spencer pratt another reality star

00:20:57.660 well pretty good track record with reality stars uh affecting change in the country so

00:21:04.860 And yes, I saw the comments. I am fully aware of the shit show I'm living in called New Jersey, 0.99

00:21:13.220 which is fast approaching California's insanity. And that's saying a lot because California is a 1.00

00:21:21.440 massive state. New Jersey is teeny tiny, same size as Israel, actually. And we are just catching up

00:21:29.920 at lightning speed. So yes, uh, I, uh, I am not New Jersey. Someone said funny watching New Jersey,

00:21:37.000 you know, say something about California. Well, I'm not New Jersey, but I live here

00:21:41.520 and New Jersey is a disgrace. So I actually am going to dig more into what's happening in New

00:21:50.080 Jersey with some, um, people who are on the inside that will come on. And, um, yeah, it's insanity

00:21:58.280 out there. But that's what I mean. Like I just feel like there has to be some kind of intervention

00:22:04.700 with California because it can't go any further. New Jersey can't go any further. I mean, it's

00:22:12.000 the decay is so crazy that I just feel like something has to change. People have to, you

00:22:18.100 know, quietly, even like at home, just be like, we can't do this anymore. Like, where are we going

00:22:22.640 to go? Where are we going to live? Like there's no better place really. It's just going to spread

00:22:27.440 out. So, oh yeah. Yes. So Antifa in New Jersey, the whole thing, it's, it's insanity. Um, all

00:22:36.140 right. So here's a little palate cleanser while we switch topics. Did you know, oh, and I feel

00:22:43.620 like you're going to laugh at me. Um, so look, you guys, there's a new organ in our body. This

00:22:51.020 is this is a hard left turn so it's called the mesentery and it's a new organ they don't know

00:23:00.280 what it does yet i just wanted to show it to you i needed like a little little moment um looks like

00:23:06.680 a sea creature it looks like a sea creature so they thought it was just there to kind of like

00:23:11.840 hold other organs and intestines together and kind of like keep them balanced and upright but

00:23:18.740 no, they've discovered that it has an actual function and feature. They don't know what it

00:23:24.460 is yet. They're studying it. So congratulations, everybody. Welcome your new organ to your body.

00:23:30.160 And if you were short in Oregon, now you have just gotten a fresh new one. So shout out to the

00:23:36.940 mesentery. That was your science news of the day. Okay. An even better palate cleanser. Okay. So

00:23:45.500 guys i don't know in the in the chat listen there's a lot of stephen miller stands like we

00:23:50.460 love stephen miller but i'm not gonna lie scott percent you know he's giving stephen miller a run

00:23:57.660 for his money oh it's called the miss century i'll spell it someone wants to write it m as a mary e

00:24:04.060 s e n t e r y um so and you're saying they don't know what it does yet no but they said how do they

00:24:12.860 they know it's an organ they they've discovered so far that it's not just there to hold something

00:24:18.380 in place they they they say it has a function now like you need this or it functions in some way and

00:24:25.260 that's what they're digging into okay all right so more owens grokking it right now so owen will

00:24:32.540 give us an update i'm looking up what i can find about it but i i mean i think it it looks like

00:24:37.180 something they knew was there but to your point i think you made earlier they thought it was just

00:24:40.860 sort of hold things in place as opposed to doing something functional um but you know when i hear

00:24:46.620 someone say oh it does something functional well what i know well it's they're gonna reveal there's

00:24:51.660 gonna be like a big reveal maybe at the lincoln memorial um with the pool okay so listen scott

00:25:01.580 all right drop in the chat right now who who's like who's your more of the two i have no grammar

00:25:08.780 today of besent and steven miller you know who's the more what's the word i'm looking for

00:25:18.620 who's more extra extra righteous just righteous yeah that little that little riz that they have

00:25:25.980 the riz who has the riz like little punch monkey okay so here's scott percent talking oh equal

00:25:34.780 boss, Miller, Bessent, Scott Bessent's your man, Bessent, Miller, neither. Oh, EJ, it's you.

00:25:43.800 Okay. So I just love this guy. Here he is on stage talking to the New York Times.

00:25:50.280 Just the riz. The riz is the word. The question is, how should we, this is like a new,

00:25:55.460 is this a new normal? That Andrew, there's no new normal. And I can tell you that I actually

00:26:02.820 don't read the New York Times anymore that sometimes I do watch CNBC but you know occasionally

00:26:09.440 people send me articles and like there's just this fever swamp and you know you're now a pop

00:26:16.020 historian with 1929 and you know in 20, 30, 40, 50 years the New York Times is no longer the paper

00:26:24.360 of record. You can't go like you know I read this article like President Trump is slowing down

00:26:30.080 president trump's mineral capacity it is a hundred percent fake that like he only called me twice at

00:26:37.560 two in the morning last week instead of three times you're saying he called you i i believe

00:26:42.440 that he called you at two or three in the morning that you know like that that whole narrative you

00:26:46.360 you had what was the greatest one of the greatest scandals of all time that the coverage of the

00:26:52.380 biden administration joe biden's diminished capacity and and the cover and that's why it's

00:26:58.020 probably fair to raise these questions. Where was the New York Times? We just had a three-hour

00:27:02.060 cabinet meeting yesterday, Andrew. For 10 months, the Biden administration did not have a cabinet

00:27:08.320 meeting. How are you going to invoke the 25th Amendment if the cabinet secretaries never see

00:27:14.700 the president, which they didn't? I hear from people in the Treasury Building that I see

00:27:20.180 President Trump more in a day than my predecessor saw Joe Biden in half a year.

00:28:41.480 Okay.

00:28:42.680 So Jeff, I'm going to come to you first.

00:28:45.580 I mean, I love nothing more than somebody that can plainly speak to the face of another

00:28:51.640 person and just say facts.

00:28:53.500 Like he's not being disrespectful.

00:28:54.800 he's only speaking clearly and speaking facts and i i love it what do you think about the scent

00:29:00.920 yeah every time every time i see him he he's kind of the stealth bomber where it's like

00:29:06.160 he's so um unassuming but you don't realize until it's over that everything around you

00:29:12.060 is a glass because he just nuked you you know um and to his point i mean i i have a lot of disdain

00:29:19.640 for most most media in general because it's clear that they they aren't on the side of truth they're

00:29:25.580 on the side of narrative it's pretty obvious at this point and i love him pointing out that you

00:29:30.600 know look at he didn't quite bring up the easter bunny biden thing but i thought he was about to

00:29:35.300 where it's like the easter bunny's having to lead him around um and it it really just

00:29:40.440 i love how a new york new york times journalist says oh well it's because of the biden stuff that

00:29:48.120 we should question trump it's like what wait a minute you're you just tried to pull an uno

00:29:52.800 reverse there when in reality uh wait you know you know this is right yeah uh and i and i think

00:30:00.980 if i'm not mistaken that that first cabinet meeting in like 10 months didn't joe biden run that

00:30:07.000 mostly you remember when she was in a cabinet meeting and people were like that's a little

00:30:11.280 weird uh and she was basically running the entire thing and joe biden was just there

00:30:15.540 wandering off into the distance like yes it's it's uh we we have this one chicken in the

00:30:22.340 backyard that i got a discount on and her name's regina and god bless her she just stands there

00:30:27.440 with her mouth open and i just think oh it's it's joe biden like he's like he's just standing there

00:30:33.440 looking off into the distance i was like i've seen that before oh bless her yeah but yeah thank you

00:30:39.740 for taking this kind of chicken yeah i love him too and you know what i think he's another person

00:30:44.540 you could put on the bench of presidential potential i mean the dude does not care like he's

00:30:52.060 america first he's all business he's you know he's not going to take from anyone

00:30:56.620 so um owen um why do you love scott percent tell us so much i'm just kidding

00:31:03.740 well i i do i mean i think he he's got he's obviously very smart and is very you know able

00:31:09.740 to just deconstruct whatever BS argument is thrown his way. And so I love listening to his

00:31:16.860 responses to things. I think he's a great spokesperson for the Trump administration.

00:31:21.020 I think he's a bit of a whisperer type of person for that because I think he puts things

00:31:27.720 in a more polite way than maybe Trump does and Stephen Miller does. Stephen Miller is more of

00:31:34.640 the you know i'm out there fighting i'm out there getting things done and he he makes a lot of great

00:31:40.160 points and nothing against steven miller i i love him too but you know he's he's more antagonistic

00:31:46.440 and he's more just like i don't know what the right word is but aggressive maybe who's more

00:31:52.180 dissent steven miller i think is more aggressive in just in terms of how he talks like they might

00:31:58.660 make similar points but steven miller will say it in a much more aggressive way and scott dissent

00:32:03.760 will say the same stuff maybe but um in a much more polished way or i don't know what the right

00:32:08.920 words or adjectives are to use but um it just seems like it's a way of translating it to people

00:32:17.260 that might be more on the left because that's how they expect politicians to talk and i think that

00:32:23.520 really was one of the things that a lot of people on the left had immediate like tissue rejection of

00:32:30.980 Trump was just how he talks. And I don't think that's relevant. I don't think that's important.

00:32:35.480 I don't think we elect a president to be a role model. I think we elect a president to get things

00:32:39.780 done and run the country and push us in the right direction and run the executive branch. And I

00:32:45.420 think Trump is doing a great job with that. But I understand that a lot of people on the other side

00:32:50.920 are just like, they just can't stand it. It's like, you know, maybe fingers on a chalkboard

00:32:56.340 to them whenever they hear Trump talking just because of the way he talks. And I think Stephen

00:33:02.120 Miller has some of that just in the sense that he's kind of coming across as like your enemy if

00:33:07.640 you're on the other side. Whereas Scott Bessent, I think, comes across like your smart friend that

00:33:12.540 maybe you disagree with, but, you know, you're both friendly with each other. And potentially,

00:33:18.480 allegedly totally allegedly may have been beset may have been responsible for a black eye or two

00:33:26.680 i'm just not a black guy black eye or two i'm just saying um so i love him anytime i and by the way

00:33:39.360 can i just point out the thing that i think we all know but not everybody knows did you did you

00:33:45.060 guys all know that he's gay, not that it matters, but I'm just saying like, he's gay. We all freaking 0.99

00:33:51.660 love him. I'm like, run him as president. You know, where's our isms, right? I mean, he is

00:33:57.680 so alpha, so masculine. I freaking love that man. Okay. So, and if you didn't know, right? See,

00:34:05.960 you're shocked. Okay. So I want to move on. I'm always going to pick out a clip like that though.

00:34:11.420 if I see Stephen Miller or Besant or anybody. I just love, I love people that just speak the

00:34:17.140 truth directly to somebody's face because there's no fear when you're telling the truth.

00:34:21.740 Okay. So I was debating running some clips of JD Vance's media tour. Now this is going to be

00:34:29.380 unpopular. I didn't think it was great. Okay. That's just me. Everyone's like, oh, he housed

00:34:35.420 this one you'd smash this and you know i watch the clips and i'm like did he um but the one clip i do

00:34:43.340 want to play is him a short clip no it's not that short but a clip of him with megan kelly

00:34:51.020 um and the reason i want to play it is i'll tell you on the other side but let's just take a listen

00:34:56.620 here right now we have a very good deal for the american people and importantly we have a

00:35:02.620 constituency right now that is saying that we're going to send boots on the ground they want the

00:35:06.700 donald trump to send hundreds of thousands of ground troops into iran the best thing we need

00:35:12.060 republicans but we need people to be pushing back from inside the tent okay and then we're told and

00:35:19.500 i quote those who speak ill of mark levin are not maga well the president as he does is pushing

00:35:28.860 back at a criticism of yours that he thought was unfair not just me i mean a lot of non-interventional

00:35:33.740 but i talked to him last night and i said mr president i'm gonna go on megan kelly's show and

00:35:37.020 i'm gonna defend the administration's policies absolutely i love that because again good tell

00:35:41.980 him he engages and he's going to criticize you when he agrees or disagrees i don't mind he's

00:35:47.660 gonna say nice things about you when he agrees with you but that's what i actually love about

00:35:51.020 the president is he's not he's not like viewing these debates from the outside he's participating

00:35:56.540 in them himself and again megan the frustration that i've had with you know the non-interventionist

00:36:02.380 side has been that the attitude seems to be we disagree with the president on this policy look

00:36:08.220 we can have that debate but fine okay you disagree with the president on this particular policy

00:36:13.500 that doesn't mean you can give up on the entire enterprise yeah no and the reason the reason why

00:36:20.380 neocons are so much more effective in politics than the people on the other side in our coalition

00:36:26.460 is because they play the game. They get disappointed, they make their criticisms,

00:36:31.940 and they go back and they live to fight another day. Right now, right now, we need everybody

00:36:37.500 who recognizes that this is a good deal for the American people and that we don't want,

00:36:42.540 like John Potter was saying, hundreds of thousands of ground troops in Iran,

00:36:46.080 make your voice heard. This is where you've got to participate in the process.

00:36:50.280 Disagree when you disagree, agree when you agree. But I don't like this idea of the president did

00:36:56.200 something I didn't like, so I'm out. I think it's a very immature way to approach the political

00:37:00.860 process, and it's the way to ensure that your enemies always win. Okay, so I like that clip

00:37:07.780 because that's what I, you know, sometimes when I disagree with things Trump is doing here, you know,

00:37:13.480 the chat gets upset or, you know, you don't like, it's not that. It's like, you know, I don't like

00:37:19.040 everything all the time. Just like, you know, when your spouse starts chewing or breathing a weird

00:37:24.440 way and you're like, oh, I hate the way you chew, but you still love the person. It doesn't make

00:37:30.520 you hate them. So I just like that. So again, I agree with his messaging there about maybe you

00:37:38.860 don't like everything, but stick together if you can. What do you think, Owen, about what you just

00:37:45.300 heard? I mean, I still think Vance is very articulate. I think he's very good at expressing

00:37:52.560 positions and again maybe being a bit of a trump whisperer in some ways but i i think certainly in

00:37:58.740 the clip you mentioned i don't know that i necessarily thought he was blowing somebody

00:38:02.820 away or you know having this great time i think he may have done a little bit better on the view

00:38:07.620 with some of the stuff pushing back on some of those things but um you know i i think uh i i

00:38:14.540 still am very positive on vance i don't think he necessarily has the persuasion and charisma that

00:38:21.400 Trump had or has, um, in terms of just the techniques, but, um, you know, I still think

00:38:28.300 he's a very smart man and I think he'd be a great president. Um, yeah, I, I, I see, I, you know,

00:38:35.900 right now I just see him more as a vice president type of person. I don't know what it is, but I,

00:38:41.400 I really like him. I like him. I just, I'm not there yet, but I think there's so many really

00:38:48.940 good potential people. So I wouldn't mind seeing like who's got what, you know, but Jeff, your

00:38:56.180 thoughts. Yeah. So when I hear Vance speak and when I look at that clip that you shared, I think

00:39:04.840 about he's very calm. He's calm in almost every situation. He doesn't really get fired up all

00:39:13.540 that often and sometimes that can be a pretty big asset when you know if you've got trump that's

00:39:20.480 kind of he's a fiery guy uh and and he's able to do things that you know he's a one of one right

00:39:26.840 uh i think vance compliments trump in that way where he can go on some of this especially

00:39:32.640 adversarial media like the view uh and and talk to people that um you know would would not be

00:39:42.580 receptive at all to what trump says i wonder sometimes about vance going on on shows like

00:39:49.620 the view and similar things and i thought about the other day and i was like well

00:39:52.520 to many on the left they they live in information bubbles and so the only time because it would be

00:39:59.260 easy for the trump administration just to shut out all adversarial media um but it's important

00:40:05.120 to pierce that bubble so that people get exposed to some to some version of the other side because

00:40:10.600 If not, they just won't. And it's very easy for them to avoid it. And so I like Vance quite a

00:40:17.020 bit. I'm impressed with him nearly every time I see him just because of his steadiness. But like

00:40:23.860 you said, we've got Rubio and some other options that are really fantastic on the table. The larger

00:40:30.840 picture is somebody's got to carry it after Trump, assuming there's not a Trump 2028.

00:40:37.200 Mm hmm. That's right. I feel like, you know, I remember Scott was talking about, you know, should I should I reach out to Vance and give him some coaching and, you know, about I wish that could have ever happened because I feel like J.D. allows people to interrupt him.

00:40:58.680 um he doesn't cut in ever like you know he's being respectful but i mean oh my god you guys

00:41:04.940 all right so listen here's here's why i'm probably never gonna play a clip from the view i was telling

00:41:10.500 jeff before so i used to listen to dave rubin every day i just don't have the time now but i do

00:41:16.160 when i can and it seemed to like after you know scott was done i would turn on dave and like start

00:41:23.140 from the beginning and i would like jump in the shower and all of a sudden a clip from the view

00:41:27.840 would come on and I'm like in the shower screaming like, no, Dave, I can't take listening to these 1.00

00:41:33.520 women. So I don't want to do that to you guys. I'm just looking out for your own wellbeing. It's 1.00

00:41:39.340 like mind numbing to listen to them. And they're so racist and stupid. And in my opinion, they were 1.00

00:41:47.180 so disrespectful to the vice president yesterday. It was JD Vance in the middle. And then they

00:41:54.840 brought out like every co-host they could find. There was like 25 of them around the table and

00:42:00.340 they tried their best to be respectful. I'll give them that. But it's like they don't want to hear

00:42:08.820 him. They just want to get their little dings in for the clicks. So I can't do it to you guys

00:42:13.900 because they're not genuinely interested in hearing what he has to say. They just want to

00:42:19.720 change people's minds who might like him to not like him. So I can't do it to you guys.

00:42:26.800 Dave Rubin's hilarious. And a lot of times I would listen to him, like I'd be in the grocery

00:42:30.620 store with my little ear pods in and I'd be laughing so hard at his commentary. But anyway,

00:42:36.320 so I don't know. I didn't love his tour, but here is something I told you, Greg Gutfeld is like my,

00:42:45.400 he's like the blood that runs through my veins. Like when he gets on one, like on a heater,

00:42:50.840 I'm like, yes. So, uh, I'm reading your comments. So anyway, JD, uh, vice president Vance went on

00:42:58.860 the five yesterday. He was also on Gutfeld. He was making his rounds, but

00:43:03.420 not, it's not about, about him in this clip. This is about Greg just have the hat always having

00:43:10.200 enough with jessica tarlov and the thing that i just want to say about jessica is you know when

00:43:16.940 you guys the left the democrats the talking heads stay so freaking hard on your agenda it's not

00:43:24.860 helping the country and i just wish that jessica could for once be like you know what you're right 0.65

00:43:29.920 and i am going to shut up for the greater good but here's greg and just pump him through my veins

00:43:35.960 let's go. Want to see your rewards go further? Now at Shell, Scene Plus members can fill up on

00:43:42.860 points at the pump, on snacks, car wash, and more. Plus, Scotiabank and Tangerine card holders can

00:43:49.420 get up to 10 cents per liter in value with a linked card. New rewards partners, new ways to

00:43:55.180 save and earn at Shell. Get more, go further. At participating Shell locations, conditions and

00:44:00.980 limits apply actual value may be lower visit shell.ca slash loyalty for full details

00:44:06.300 another reason jessica you need the big beautiful ballroom it's a drone port 1.00

00:44:11.540 so you can then launch drones to counter any sort of attack i hear jessica's actually a big

00:44:17.800 fan of the ballroom i heard too i am properly brief jessica you were and it's the taxpayer

00:44:24.080 funded ballroom just to mention that about a half of it um listen this has been a problem

00:44:29.940 for a long time and just growing exponentially. So Obama got three times the number of threats

00:44:36.100 and 11 credible assassination plots. Then it went up under Trump. I think Biden had some,

00:44:42.360 but not as much, and then Trump again. So obviously we have a real problem with this.

00:44:45.900 And I think also the amount of conspiracy theorists and conspiracy theories that are

00:44:53.160 flying around on the left and the right when things like this do happen, like Butler, for

00:44:58.020 instance or even what we saw at the White House Correspondents Dinner where people thought that

00:45:01.280 that was staged is such an unhealthy place for us to be as a country. I think part of that is,

00:45:06.460 you know, more transparency and making sure that people know what's actually going on.

00:45:11.240 And then also people in positions of power doing the right thing and coming out. Like,

00:45:15.100 I appreciate that you said this actually wasn't that far along, right? Like we were safe and the

00:45:19.220 event was safe because I think that people do want to, you know, mix it up, stir it up. They

00:45:24.380 WANT THAT ALGORITHM TO BE JUICED IN, YOU KNOW, WHATEVER PARTISAN DIRECTION YOU'RE IN AND FOR IT TO TURN 0.53

00:45:29.560 INTO PRESIDENT TRUMP ALMOST DIED OR, YOU KNOW, OBAMA ALMOST DIED, ET CETERA.

00:45:33.660 GREG?

00:45:34.840 I DON'T KNOW.

00:45:37.180 I MEAN, WHEN I HEAR YOU TALK ABOUT OBAMA'S THREATS, AND I KNOW THAT'S BEEN DEBUNKED.

00:45:41.440 WHAT?

00:45:42.540 HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF THREATS.

00:45:44.240 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT...

00:45:44.960 11 CREDIBLE ASSASSINATIONS.

00:45:46.320 WE CAN GO THROUGH THAT IN THE BREAK, AND YOU'LL FIND OUT THAT A LOT OF THESE THREATS WERE JUST, LIKE,

00:45:50.740 EMAILS AND PHONE CALLS.

00:45:51.840 We're talking about people that try to kill leaders.

00:45:55.480 There's been nothing like this in the history of this country.

00:45:59.660 You know what?

00:46:00.500 It's so important.

00:46:02.100 The tell for this is whenever you're talking to a liberal, they galvanize that evidence.

00:46:07.040 They were so intent on trying to tell you it's both sides.

00:46:10.480 That tells you that it's not.

00:46:12.780 We know that it's just one way. 0.85

00:46:15.180 Dana points out the language Jews, capitalist elites, billionaires, AIPAC Jews. 0.88

00:46:21.840 right? I didn't know Platner and Hassan Piker had time to plan this because that's the same 0.87

00:46:26.800 language they use. The motive, the rhetoric is directly related to the inflammatory rhetoric

00:46:33.240 of the mainstream left, which has become so mundane because you're supporting some 1.00

00:46:38.400 asshole with a Nazi tattoo on his chest. This is why liberal outrage has no credibility. 1.00

00:46:44.100 I can say bad things about Joy Behar, but no right-wing group is going to go burn down her 1.00

00:46:48.400 I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO 0.99

00:46:50.400 HAPPEN TO HER HOUSE. 0.63

00:46:51.400 A WRESTLER CAN CALL MICHELLE A 1.00

00:46:53.400 MAN. 0.85

00:46:53.900 I DOUBT A RIGHT-WING GROUP IS 0.99

00:46:56.400 GOING TO HER HOUSE IN HAWAII.

00:46:58.400 BUT YOU DO A REPETITION OF 1.00

00:47:00.400 DEMONIZATION ABOUT NAZIS AND 0.99

00:47:02.400 FASCISTS AND WHITE SUPREMACISTS. 0.96

00:47:04.400 IS IT NO SURPRISE THAT CHARLIE 1.00

00:47:06.400 KIRK GETS KILLED?

00:47:07.400 IS IT NO SURPRISE THAT TRUMP 0.99

00:47:09.400 GETS SHOT AT?

00:47:10.400 IS IT NO SURPRISE THERE ARE THESE

00:47:12.400 LARGE TERROR PLANS THAT END UP

00:47:14.400 BEING THWARTED?

00:47:15.400 WE'RE LUCKY THEY GOT THWARTED. 0.97

00:47:17.400 THE OLD SOCIALISTS WON'T.

00:47:19.400 THE OLD SOCIALISTS WON'T.

00:47:21.400 THE OLD SOCIALISTS WILL MAKE 0.63

00:47:23.400 MONEY WRITING BOOKS ABOUT THEIR 1.00

00:47:25.400 IDEOLOGY, BUT THEY WON'T LEAVE

00:47:27.400 THE HOUSE UNLESS, YOU KNOW, Bette 1.00

00:47:29.400 MIDDLER IS PLAYING.

00:47:30.400 THESE GUYS BUY INTO THEIR

00:47:32.400 RHETORIC AND THEN THEY GO OUT 0.92

00:47:34.400 AND ACT OUT AND THEN YOU HAVE THE

00:47:36.400 OLD SOCIALISTS GOING, WELL, 1.00

00:47:38.400 THESE PEOPLE ARE STUPID. 1.00

00:47:40.400 YOU CAN LOOK IT UP. 1.00

00:47:42.400 I'M HAPPY TO LOOK IT UP.

00:47:44.400 THIS BREAK IS GOING TO BE

00:47:46.400 I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO

00:47:48.400 TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES.

00:47:50.400 I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO

00:47:52.400 TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES.

00:47:54.400 THIS IS MY POINT.

00:47:56.400 WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE PEOPLE

00:47:58.400 SHOOTING UP WALMART?

00:48:00.400 LISTEN TO THE RHETORIC.

00:48:02.400 DO IT SIDE BY SIDE.

00:48:04.400 THAT SOUNDS LIKE DONALD TRUMP

00:48:06.400 TALKING ABOUT LEFTISTS. 0.99

00:48:08.400 CALLING PEOPLE VERMIN, SCUM. 0.99

00:48:10.400 YOU ARE COMPARING THAT TO A 0.99

00:48:12.400 REPETITIVE RHETORIC THAT'S BEEN

00:48:14.400 here every single day save it well i hear terrible things on the show every day but that's just for

00:48:21.260 me all right we gotta go coming up next jd i mean greg yes pump it through my veins because it's so

00:48:29.080 true and that you know well we did it at this and no so i think that jessica um makes herself look 0.99

00:48:36.840 stupid and she's not stupid she makes herself look stupid by not just saying you know what 1.00

00:48:41.400 you're right. No one ever puts themselves in the shoes of the other person. Jessica's never lived 1.00

00:48:49.460 with people calling her a Nazi and a white supremacist and that they're racist and this

00:48:55.200 and that. And it's like Scott said, hunted. So hunted. We have been hunted. I mean, I've had a 0.76

00:49:01.840 target on my back because I voted for President Trump. Why? I don't know. So Owen, I'm going to

00:49:10.000 come to you first on this, but I can't stand that they can never just shut up and recognize and

00:49:15.540 change. Like I said, if you can change your mind, change your opinion, or just adjust course a

00:49:21.520 little bit because you see the truth, that's the superpower. But not being able to recognize

00:49:27.200 something so simple, like what he's saying, is some kind of disorder.

00:49:34.440 Yeah. I mean, well, certainly I think the assassination attempts on Trump are, I think,

00:49:39.160 unprecedented and i don't think comparable to any prior president i know every president gets

00:49:43.040 death threats and you know there may be even a few plots to try and assassinate them but

00:49:47.440 i don't think it's anything close to what happened to trump where they came literally in within an

00:49:52.980 inch of doing it and um you know they they had the guy at the white horse correspondence center

00:49:58.780 and i mean it just the guy at the golf course like really close calls and um you know you can

00:50:05.540 you can say these are, those are secret service failures or whatever, but it's just, I think the

00:50:10.120 real root cause is that the left is being driven crazy and there's people that are being pushed

00:50:15.840 over the edge to the point where they are trying to actually take these actions much more than in

00:50:20.880 the past. And it is tied into the rhetoric. It is tied into what the media has been saying for

00:50:25.740 10 years about how Trump's a Nazi, Trump's a fascist, Trump's a dictator. Trump's going to 0.99

00:50:30.900 be here forever. He's breaking the law. He's in the Epstein files, all these things, many of which

00:50:35.200 are just blatant lies. And they've been painting him as this satanic figure for so long that some

00:50:43.800 people are going to get pushed over the edge by that. And I think the left should be accountable

00:50:47.580 for that. I don't think they will ever accept accountability for it, but I think they should

00:50:51.260 be held accountable for it because they have been doing it. Yeah. And the same thing, like I always

00:50:56.820 say, whoever the next Republican president will be, it's going to be the same thing. This isn't,

00:51:01.680 you know, exclusive to Trump, um, it's going to be the same thing. Um, Jeff, go ahead, take it

00:51:07.580 away. Yeah. So when, when I think about, you know, the, the, the assassination attempts against

00:51:13.700 Trump, um, there's actually a really good article by Timothy Ferris. This is many years old and he

00:51:19.980 just talks about the, the raw numbers of, of fame, right? So if you, if you have an audience the size

00:51:28.120 of a small city. Think about how many people in that small city are off the meds or whatever it

00:51:33.540 is. Think about Trump's audience, if you will. Trump might be the most famous person in history.

00:51:41.600 It's not an exaggeration to say that. And so if you have millions and billions of people

00:51:50.660 who know of Trump, even if the media coverage was 100% positive, there would still be a

00:51:59.920 group of people that would plot to do him harm just because of numbers alone, numbers and mental

00:52:09.180 illness, you might call it. But you add on the layer of media constantly demonizing everyone

00:52:15.080 on the right and Trump specifically, that number grows and grows and grows.

00:52:19.160 you know look look at the white house correspondence dinner shooter his manifesto

00:52:24.540 read more like a blue sky post and in some ways it was even more tame than a blue sky

00:52:29.060 post and so it i hear no one talking about just the just the fact that it it's it's numbers

00:52:38.500 plus propaganda and so it doesn't matter who you are someone's going if you're if you're famous

00:52:45.700 enough someone's going to get fixated on you but this this layer of media that we've had over the

00:52:51.820 last 10 years constantly pushing people towards what i believe is a very real psychotic break

00:52:58.540 like there are people on the left that are in psychosis like in deep psychosis who have a

00:53:04.440 fundamental break with reality uh due in large part to just a surround sound cacophony of um

00:53:13.760 you know shows like the view and all these other shows that just reinforce their own

00:53:18.160 sort of maladjusted sort of thoughts and of course you're seeing the results of that like the system

00:53:25.360 is designed perfectly to get the results that we're seeing and so yeah and i mean i i have

00:53:31.440 pretty radical views about this stuff and so uh you know i i wouldn't be hurt at all if trump just

00:53:37.440 stormed into the major networks and was like all right i'm shutting you down you know we're just

00:53:41.920 not going to do any news for a little bit uh you know i think i think something drastic uh in terms

00:53:47.920 of reform has to happen and i think if we if we don't see that with the white house correspondence

00:53:53.200 dinner where a lot of those people in media were in danger i don't know if we're ever going to see

00:53:57.760 it yeah i i agree and um i don't i don't know how it changes or gets fixed i i don't i don't see i

00:54:08.480 mean i'm not smart enough to see the way out of how that happens but um i don't know ej he can't

00:54:14.960 turn off the news bless your soul um and that's the problem too is like i mean oh my god what's 0.95

00:54:21.680 his name that idiot um jim acosta you know he's like don lemon ish himself but did i mean like 0.99

00:54:30.720 this is just how stupid they are so they had to take president trump's name off the kennedy center 1.00

00:54:36.000 because it wasn't put up there through the right process, whatever. And so Jim Acosta is out there 1.00

00:54:42.200 live streaming a video of the outside of the Kennedy Center waiting for the Trump name to

00:54:49.640 get removed for like 24 hours. He's out there in 100 degree heat. And he says like he compares it

00:54:56.320 to the ripping down of the Berlin Wall, taking Trump's name off a building. I'm like, you're

00:55:02.520 mental. Like you're so mental because all the normies in this world are like, what the hell 1.00

00:55:08.820 is wrong with these people? So I don't know how you fix it. But as long as the media is overran 0.97

00:55:14.740 with people like this, I don't know how you how you change the narrative. And the layer on top of

00:55:20.320 that to change it just for your average person, right, to reject the media's programming. They

00:55:26.040 have to admit that not only are they wrong currently, but they've been wrong. And think

00:55:29.760 about how difficult that is from a human behavior perspective it is a painful thing as scott has

00:55:35.200 told us many times it's a painful thing for us to admit that we we are wrong about something and

00:55:40.460 we've been wrong and so there has to be some sort of mechanism for for them to either create some

00:55:48.060 sort of on-ramp or make that process as as gentle as it reasonably could be where new information

00:55:54.540 comes like oh well you probably didn't realize and it's it's just tough because there's no sort

00:55:59.400 of base level of agreement with a lot of the folks on the left, uh, where we can start

00:56:04.740 from, it's all disagreement.

00:56:06.360 It's like Russian nesting, uh, uh, disagreements all the way down.

00:56:11.060 And it's really hard to find some sort of core point of agreement, um, to move forward

00:56:16.540 with.

00:56:17.360 Oh, and any last thoughts on this?

00:56:19.860 Well, just that I think it is something that keeps escalating and it keeps getting more

00:56:24.200 and more extreme.

00:56:24.820 And I think that's kind of what you were saying with, that's going to go on to the next Republican

00:56:29.040 president or the next Republican that gets in office whenever that is. And I think that's part

00:56:35.100 of the danger here is that it seems like they're always trying to top themselves. They're always

00:56:39.500 trying to push people to take these violent actions. And by having it happen, it becomes

00:56:45.340 more normalized. It becomes more like, okay, we're expecting to see this again. And I don't think we

00:56:49.720 should. I think we should try and push back on it as much as we can, but make sure that it's not

00:56:53.980 normalized and that it isn't something that is encouraged in the media. And again, I think the

00:57:00.280 best we can do is just call out the media and mock them and make it very clear that they're

00:57:05.640 playing a big role in this and just never let them stop hearing that because I think that

00:57:10.580 eventually it might start getting through at least to some people. And I do think we have

00:57:13.940 made some progress. I think that might be behind why CBS had a change in management. I think that's

00:57:18.920 why some of the other media companies have changed ownership to more Republican or conservative

00:57:24.040 ownership. And so I think there is a shift in the leadership. I think there's even been some shift

00:57:29.980 with Bezos and the Washington Post. I'm not going to give them credit because I don't think it's

00:57:34.200 complete, but they did lay off a bunch of people and get rid of a bunch of people. And

00:57:37.360 so I think to be fair, there has been some progress, I think, in the right direction,

00:57:44.160 but i think we have a long way to go i agree um okay the other thing i just wanted to mention

00:57:50.320 so yesterday or the day before i don't even know what day it is today to be honest with you but i

00:57:55.280 was talking about um you know what like the islamic muslim culture was doing with children um yesterday

00:58:08.320 the report came out what's it called the i don't want to say the word the word um r-a-p-e gang

00:58:14.860 okay you guys i like i told you i couldn't even begin to tell you what i already knew about it

00:58:21.960 because i can't even verbalize i just can't even verbalize so um i chose um to repost uh the

00:58:31.520 article on substack from friend of the show american debunk so he went through the report

00:58:38.060 and it is on my ex, um, profile. So please find it wherever you want. Again, it's the RAPE gang

00:58:47.340 report cure stormer should be anyway. Um, just read it. You can, and, and American debunk. If

00:58:57.420 you read his, like on a device, like on a phone, it's like nice and narrow and you can just like

00:59:01.880 kind of easily skim through it. You don't have to get bogged down in it, but take a look at it. I,

00:59:07.400 I know Montreal galaxy. You want me to spend more time on it? I don't think I can. I just don't

00:59:13.260 think I can. Okay. And I don't think it's appropriate for this show, but I would really

00:59:17.960 love it as like, think of it as a homework assignment, an extra credit assignment,

00:59:22.220 please find it and read it. Um, and if you guys want to repost it, repost it and tag your friends

00:59:30.100 in it, because we need to know this, this is also here in this country. Okay. So read the report,

00:59:36.000 but just know that this is happening here.

00:59:39.640 It's so freaking...

00:59:42.520 Words beyond your comprehension.

00:59:43.860 Think of the darkest thought anyone's ever had

00:59:45.900 and multiply it by a thousand

00:59:47.080 and maybe you're halfway there.

00:59:49.220 I almost can't even speak.

00:59:51.120 I'm losing my words.

00:59:52.460 It's unbelievable.

00:59:55.340 Get to know it.

00:59:56.400 Okay, so you guys,

00:59:58.060 Jeff, thank you so, so much

01:01:42.900 come on in let's see what happens today can't even imagine

01:01:52.420 almost anything could happen today

01:01:56.300 oh oh this one's good okay you're lucky this one could change your whole life by the way

01:02:07.200 if you're not familiar with the reframe concept i'm a trained hypnotist so when i write a reframe

01:02:12.840 I'm doing it from a position of some skill.

01:02:17.000 The beauty of a reframe is that you don't have to keep a diary or go to a therapy or talk it through, do exercises.

01:02:25.780 You don't have to eat different.

01:02:27.480 You literally just have to hear it once.

01:02:31.040 So my claim is that a reframe will change your life if it's the one you needed.
