00:00:00.480 Recently, our company's softball team lost the big game by one run.
00:00:04.800 Then Dale tried to console us with the quote,

00:04:18.780 2026. Did that feel so overly official? It felt official. Yeah, and seen as Scott would say. Okay,
00:04:27.020 so wait, I just have to start with one thing and then gosh knows where we're going. But did you
00:04:32.280 guys see this guy behind president trump yesterday during his rally he was quite the showstopper
00:04:39.560 check out the guy behind president trump anytime in the history of our country and americans are
00:04:46.200 working today more so than ever before we have more jobs today than we've ever had 0.96
00:04:52.040 this is with this skirmish we have with the islamic republic 1.00
00:04:56.760 and i call it that because let me tell you they're getting hit so hard and they want to make it 0.94
00:05:04.360 i mean that's what you just think you would do if you if you knew you were right behind them on
00:05:11.620 camera if you were a juvenile child but i i appreciated that comic relief oh my god i can't
00:05:18.040 believe you guys didn't see that that was amazing would you got would you do that oh yeah like i do
00:05:25.480 that around the house just uh just to mess with my wife and like i'll send her reels where like
00:05:29.640 it's a bus full of dudes and they're all talking like trump it's it's hilarious it's like excuse
00:05:34.000 me excuse me it's really really late for dinner uh marcella would you would you compete and and
00:05:43.380 participate in that tomfoolery yourself you know he he i mean he's courageous i just wouldn't do it
00:05:51.000 Because, you know, I don't respect for the president.
00:05:54.620 Also, like, I don't tend to do that in regards to him.
00:05:57.740 But, you know, I think I've seen that guy.
00:05:59.820 I think he does do shorts on Instagram or TikTok or something.
00:06:04.360 So he's an influencer that does that for a living, I think.
00:06:08.500 Ah, I see.
00:06:08.940 Well, he got himself a good seat.
00:06:10.600 Owen, I can tell you're probably doing that right now, aren't you?
00:06:18.040 See, look at, how does he do it?
00:06:19.780 All right. So he's so engaged. Yeah. Yeah. He's doing it. Right. I can. I can. He's doing. Yeah. See. So Owen's on assignment. Like we said, he's traveling and I think he's locked in a bathroom. So he'll be in and out. Oh, there he is. There he is. Oh, and we were teasing you.
00:06:36.880 okay so you guys i asked jeff about a couple things that he would want to talk about today
00:06:43.820 and so marcella and jeff are going to just kind of lead owen and i right now um nope nope owen
00:06:50.840 said i'm not doing it okay so you two i told you it's such a weird day it's such a weird day okay
00:06:57.620 so we did play this clip prior um but we're going to play it again because jeff uh thinks this is a
00:07:05.160 good clip to get into a talking point, but we have a lot to say about Cuba today, which is
00:07:09.960 interesting. So let's play this clip and I'm going to let Owen back in. This is the nature of the
00:07:15.480 terrorism we face today. They despise the West because the West is great. This is an international
00:07:24.540 conference because we are facing an international, we are facing a transnational threat. These are 0.67
00:07:31.320 not distinct in isolated cells. They are interconnected networks. They do not recognize our borders.
00:07:38.400 They do not believe, in fact, in the nation state itself. They coordinate, they communicate,
00:07:43.960 they travel, they train, and they act together, sharing the same infrastructure, sharing the
00:07:50.960 same enemies, sharing the same mission. Antifa militants and their comrades travel from across
00:07:57.400 Europe and to the Americas to participate in each other's attacks, to funnel propaganda
00:08:02.960 and training materials and target information through shared encrypted channels, moving
00:08:08.800 through underground networks of safe houses and finance, and sustain their operations
00:08:14.360 through transnational funds. 0.85
00:08:16.640 And they work alongside hostile foreign states that share their mission, like Iranian proxy
00:08:22.960 networks who are increasingly increasingly intimately tied to leftist militant groups
00:08:27.880 around the world the cuban regime's sprawling intelligence and ideological network helped to
00:08:33.700 build the far left in our country and in our hemisphere and it remains inextricably linked
00:08:39.100 to the far left groups and movements across and beyond the west okay so we pulled that clip and
00:08:48.120 And Jeff, I'm going to just send it over to you first.
00:08:51.120 So, you know, we really do need a good update and education on what's happening with Cuba.
00:08:56.140 We haven't talked about it much.
00:08:57.460 So what can you tell us is happening right now?
00:09:00.820 Yeah, so I watched Marco Rubio's speech, and I mean, it was a fantastic speech.
00:09:05.820 It's well worth the full watch. 0.63
00:09:08.300 And then I started looking into the State Department report on Cuba that was released not long ago, Cuba, the capital of 21st century communism.
00:09:17.400 And it's a big document. And the thing that struck me is that there is so much that's going on in terms of Cuba basically waging a 67-year sort of covert war against the United States in terms of sowing dissent and being sort of at the nexus of fomenting anti-American sentiment.
00:09:45.700 and trying to further anyone that is radical against the United States
00:09:52.520 and might have communist leanings.
00:09:55.480 Cuban knew that it was a new regime 67 years ago.
00:10:00.000 There was no chance that they could go toe-to-toe with the United States
00:10:03.340 on a military level.
00:10:05.960 And so what do you do if you don't have military might?
00:10:08.000 Well, you start subverting, and you subvert as much as you can.
00:10:12.280 And then there's so much in this report that we can get into.
00:10:15.700 But one thing that really struck me was, and I'll loop it back around to Spencer Pratt and his Karen Basura, really famous video now.
00:10:26.140 He talked about how Karen Bass went to Cuba.
00:10:30.720 By the way, it wasn't just once.
00:10:32.180 It was like eight times in the early 70s.
00:10:36.900 And what they would do is they would import since since 1970, they've imported something like 10,000 radicals to Cuba to train them in being anti-American revolutionaries.
00:10:54.960 And these these sort of programs that they would run, they they would be led by Cuban intelligence and the Cuban intelligence will be looking at the attendees and looking for the true believers so that they can kind of level them up and give them the tools necessary to return to the United States and in some cases commit acts of bombing and and all these all these terrible things. 0.62
00:11:23.640 And so I love that the administration has has locked on to the Cuban threat because that it it's 90 miles off the coast of the United States. 0.71
00:11:37.260 Like it cannot be allowed to continue to foment all these sort of left wing groups. 0.94
00:11:45.260 uh usually the like there's a lot to get into but it kind of like there's chinese connections that
00:11:52.340 are going through through cuba into the united states and there's our enemies are using cuba as
00:11:58.180 a foothold and sort of a sort of a parking lot for um digging at the united states constantly
00:12:04.760 and so i love that the administration is across this stuff so jeff i'm gonna put this up i think
00:12:09.440 this is that post um let me i'll make this bigger okay so is this the operation that you're talking
00:12:20.460 about yeah uh he assigned such priority to the the project that all other dgi operations were
00:12:28.560 held to be subordinate to the collection of intelligence from the members of the
00:12:32.140 vincent i'm i'm not gonna pronounce this right the vincent your most brigade practically every
00:12:37.780 cuban national attached to the brigade camp right down to the food service and maintenance personnel
00:12:42.240 is a member or co-opted member of the dgi cuban intelligence these dgi operatives are so skilled
00:12:48.700 in their impersonations that few brigade members are even aware of their true identities in fact
00:12:53.840 so many dgi personnel are needed to staff these camps that nearly all other operations must be
00:13:00.080 suspended when the camps are active even maintenance and clerical personnel of the
00:13:04.300 directorate are pressed into service so the it's like a it's like it's like the truman show like
00:13:10.060 where you're you're there you you're kind of a lefty you you might be interested in a little
00:13:14.900 casual anti-american terrorism uh and you go to a camp to cut sugarcane or build houses or whatever
00:13:20.540 but everyone in the camp is just like human intelligence and you go eight times and then
00:13:26.000 you end up being uh the mayor of los angeles i don't know what are we even doing here wow
00:13:31.960 Wow. Okay. Marcella, I know you were digging into some of this stuff too. What would you like to add
00:13:37.240 to this so far? So, you know, this comes to me like it's kind of knowledge for me. Like I grew
00:13:45.860 up in Latin America. So some of these things come second nature and maybe I need to impart some of
00:13:53.420 that knowledge because maybe that's not, that's not even in the report itself. It doesn't highlight
00:14:00.600 how uh the report highlights many things espionage uh the venceremos brigade which brings all these
00:14:08.860 politicians um different people in different walks of life in america have gone to cuba
00:14:15.400 to be one with nature learn everything you know be influenced by it but one of the things that
00:14:21.820 it doesn't touch on is it kind of touches on it but doesn't go into it is the universities
00:14:27.080 And how there's groups at the university that are basically anti-American, anti-imperialist, anti-colonizer.
00:14:37.500 And that's basically the difference between Russian, Soviet Union, European socialist is that in Latin America, as well as Cuba, the socialists there take on this other role of racial lens, racial filter, if you will.
00:15:02.960 And so basically a lot of BLM is connected to it, a lot of different other groups like
00:15:09.000 Mecha, which I was part of at one point or another, different groups of Mexican-American,
00:15:18.960 Cesar Chavez, you have your Cesar Chavez, they tried to bring in Malcolm X,
00:15:23.820 Martin Luther King, all of the African-Americans.
00:15:26.900 So the idea is not only do we have to take the means of production, but we have to take it away because they took it away from us. 0.97
00:15:35.440 There's this idea of Aslan. Aslan comes from the idea that all of California, all a lot, the majority of the U.S. is part of Mexico. 0.57
00:15:45.880 And so the argument is that when you immigrate to California or to areas that used to be part of Mexico, they are Mexican land.
00:15:57.860 And there's all this racial ideas.
00:16:02.320 So a lot of the politicians, not just Karen Bass, but many of the politicians that are part of Los Angeles Council, any other mayor in the area, you know, are part of this idea that they were brought up with that kind of thoughts, I guess.
00:16:25.280 And so the universities are also the ones that propel it.
00:16:29.360 There's people that do PhDs on this.
00:16:32.280 There's people that do all sorts of things on this, studies, everything else.
00:16:36.740 DSA comes from there.
00:16:38.880 All of these groups are part of that.
00:16:41.620 It's a huge network.
00:16:42.840 It's not just, as we know, Cuba.
00:16:45.460 It's Nicaragua.
00:16:47.040 It's, you know, any socialist country that will be willing to talk to them.
00:16:53.180 But basically the difference between your European socialist and your American socialist is that the racial issue is a big deal. And so they're trying to push it into America with now Islam and the Muslim Brotherhood and the, you know, African American groups. 0.68
00:17:16.960 They're trying to push that in. They haven't been the oddly enough, they haven't been successful with Asian Americans. But I guess that China kind of controls that era area. 0.76
00:17:29.280 Oh, my God. All right. So, so far, for those of you playing at home that are like me, it's like every other country is just beating us over the head with trying to divide us, conquer us, brainwash us. Am I am I right?
00:17:48.000 yeah I remember Scott having he I can't remember what he was talking about he but he said the
00:17:55.320 phrase things are exactly what they look like and like that's really stuck with me years and
00:18:01.020 years after he said it right because uh sometimes things are exactly what they look like um and I
00:18:06.940 think we're we're coming out of the last few years where you know we've been um kind of saying like
00:18:14.060 hey you know it looks like this but then the credentialist americans are like no actually
00:18:19.180 it doesn't it's not that you know and we're just like no no wait a minute it just looks like
00:18:23.620 this exact thing is happening uh and marcel to your point they don't if you have a source for
00:18:31.580 this that you saw please let me know but uh re re talking about the universities there's a quote
00:18:38.920 from a state department official in 1970 that said name any disturbance in the united states
00:18:42.780 on campus in the streets anywhere and i'll name you the leaders of it who have been to cuba wow
00:18:48.780 and it's just like things things are exactly what they look like like if we are a superpower which
00:18:54.620 is true we are a superpower we we have more military might than any other nation on earth
00:19:01.340 no nation can go toe-to-toe with us in conventional warfare well what option would that leave you it
00:19:07.740 It would leave you subversion.
00:19:10.660 And I think that's exactly what we've been saying.
00:19:13.540 So even Antifa?
00:19:16.520 It's good that you bring that up.
00:19:18.260 I've got that in my notes here.
00:19:19.660 I heard Rubio say it.
00:19:21.940 Yeah, so let me scroll down to the Antifa part.
00:19:26.680 This is so interesting, you guys.
00:19:28.360 I think being aware, situationally aware.
00:19:34.080 And it seems like this happens with every industry.
00:19:37.000 when you're or everybody who's number one and you're like the best and the greatest everybody
00:19:41.800 comes for you and it's just like you know we feel it happening and we see it happening and we see
00:19:47.480 our country changing we see the world changing and so it's um very interesting to hear these things
00:19:54.600 you know the cuba connection i don't think a lot of us realize that you know these little tiny
00:20:00.520 places you know have this power over the world bye dr heinz okay yeah so the report claims that uh
00:20:10.680 cuban link networks maintain ties to sort of anti-ice collectives socialist groups and marxist
00:20:16.840 military militant organizations across the united states uh referencing antifa and and and the like
00:20:25.800 And then you go into the funding side of it, right, where you have people like Neville Roy Singham, you know, who allegedly funds a lot of these anti-American groups through NGOs that that money then filters to Antifa.
00:20:45.560 And then I believe it's the Lawyers Guild, we need to fact check that, but who helps
00:20:52.420 these radicals not see as many consequences as maybe they should, especially in blue cities
00:21:00.940 and blue states.
00:21:03.340 And so, yeah, it's kind of a huge op of like, hey, how can we funnel as much discontent
00:21:12.740 into America and use any vehicle we can get our hands on.
00:21:20.380 It could be Antifa.
00:21:21.200 It could be the anti-ice folks.
00:21:23.280 It could be No Kings, which is largely dried up, as you notice.
00:21:26.280 I don't see very many No Kings protests anymore.
00:21:32.160 And so, yeah, like money flows in.
00:21:35.140 And its number one goal is to subvert America.
00:21:40.220 Wow. So you guys, you know, poor us. We're being beaten over the head. Owen, did you want to jump in here at any point with any questions?
00:21:49.380 Well, yeah. I mean, I was interested to learn more about Marcella's time in a terrorist organization. I just breezed past that. But the other point I would make would be that, you know, what we're seeing now is also an op on our side.
00:22:05.260 Like I, I just, to put it in context, what I'm observing is that we're preparing the information battlefield for going into Cuba and, and I'm not disputing any of the information.
00:22:17.780 I believe Marco Rubio has his facts, right?
00:22:20.680 And all these things are at least somewhat true, but you know, that's, what's happening is we're, we're hearing all this stuff about Cuba because we're going to take action because we're going to probably do something like in Venezuela or, you know, whatever. 0.88
00:22:34.540 I don't think it's going to look like Iran because I think we can just walk right all over them militarily and we probably will. 0.97
00:22:39.480 But, you know, this is the justification. 0.81
00:22:42.160 This is trying to put the information out there so that when the press comes out and starts beating up the Trump administration about how we're beating on poor little Cuba and all these poor, innocent Cubans are just victims in this, that they've already put out the information to debunk it.
00:22:58.500 So that that's what's going on, in my opinion.
00:23:00.960 I think that's a great point.
00:23:03.300 and based on what we've done in the past, it sounds like just what's happening now.
00:23:08.180 Marcella, do you want to talk about your time with the gang or anything else?
00:23:12.420 I just wanted friends, you guys.
00:23:16.980 Then the first time I went, actually some of those friends I've known for a long time,
00:23:24.660 but they left me during Trump era. The particular thing is like,
00:23:32.340 it was interesting to go to the meetings to see what they would say um and i would have to say
00:23:39.700 nowadays i would have filmed it maybe put it online because maybe there is things online but
00:23:46.340 basically they would have um at the beginning of the meetings they would have like clapping
00:23:52.740 and it would be anti-white clapping and i was like wait i'm white like basically i may have been born
00:24:02.340 And I'll stop a little bit, you know, so anyways, so it was interesting to kind of see that there's also, you know, when you went to law school, the Lawyers Guild was there.
00:24:15.740 There's many groups like that were pushing a certain agenda and they're all very well funded.
00:24:23.940 And if you want to be popular, if you want to be someone at the school, you kind of have to be with them or against them.
00:24:35.120 It's a lot of pressure for people.
00:24:39.680 I thought I could change people to capitalism by going into the media.
00:24:45.080 You tried, Marcella.
00:24:46.240 You tried.
00:24:46.600 You tried, you guys.
00:24:47.580 They were dug in.
00:24:48.460 They were dug in.
00:24:49.940 All right.
00:24:50.600 So what else do we need to know about this, Jeff?
00:24:52.520 Um, you know, what, so what should we be looking for? So, all right. I have a lot of questions. So
00:24:58.520 do you guys think that in the chat, do you guys think this is persuasive, you know, for us to go
00:25:06.260 into Cuba, given what was said today, you know, what we heard today? Um, I, you know, I, I'm kind
00:25:13.760 of like, all right, well, you know, I'm, I'm easy to influence. I'm like, all right, well, let's go
00:25:17.620 get Cuba and like fix that problem now. And I keep thinking like, it's, it's little, it's small, 0.59
00:25:22.280 We can we can handle it like Venezuela. But then I'm just like, you know, again, how many people are infiltrating our country with this mindset, just like Islam, just like all the other things. 1.00
00:25:35.680 So, um, what's, what's going to happen? What do we think? Anyone can take this. Yeah. 1.00
00:25:41.380 So, uh, I'm really, I'm really glad Owen brought up, uh, that we're obviously seeding the ground
00:25:49.060 of a sort of a casus belly in terms of some sort of action, right? It may, it may be military,
00:25:54.040 may, may not be, it may be economic, it might be some other means, uh, but it's, it's laying 0.88
00:25:58.900 the groundwork for taking some sort of action against Cuba to expel the foreign influence
00:26:04.720 and the subversive influence from our hemisphere, the Don Rote doctrine, as you will.
00:26:12.760 But I'm looking back in my archives here on sort of what to expect if there is some sort of action against Cuba,
00:26:21.180 because probably what you'll see in the first 24 hours is the sort of the far left national rapid response plan directed,
00:26:33.580 coordinated uh sort of national action you know again we're not talking a gigantic amount of
00:26:40.340 people it's just the the norm the the people the usual suspects that you would expect it
00:26:45.720 are going to be sort of bent out of shape if anything bad happens to anything on on the far
00:26:52.420 left right and so you're probably going to see um the narrative trying to be stolen in terms of
00:27:00.460 oh the like it's aggression against the poor cuban people and so i i think what what is also
00:27:07.340 kind of interesting is rubio is cuban right and so there's sort of a version of uh pacing and
00:27:14.660 leading uh where he he has more authority to talk about matters that pertain to cuba than just your
00:27:23.860 phd uh person who you know kind of has bad hair and bad skin and is holding a sign marching
00:27:32.840 somewhere right uh and so i think it's gonna be really interesting uh how the narrative is going
00:27:39.200 to shake out but the reality is is like as we've seen with venezuela and some other places like
00:27:44.100 it seems like in our hemisphere at least we can do whatever we want basically uh and i don't mean
00:27:51.120 that in a uh sort of an aggressive like our will is moral and good 100 of the time it's more of
00:27:59.660 like look we see these communist influences and these anti-american influences it cannot be allowed
00:28:06.520 to to park 90 miles off of our southern coast and then uh do what it's been doing for the last 67
00:28:14.340 years you know something has to change uh and i think when when you kind of triangulate between
00:28:19.800 China Venezuela Cuba it wouldn't surprise me if the far left sort of terrorist cells that are out
00:28:30.180 there I think that I don't know if they'll dry up completely because you can always have a crazy
00:28:37.980 person with a bucket full of gas and a lighter you can always have that but we're going after
00:28:44.180 the infrastructure of these far left groups and at a certain point there's not going to be a whole
00:28:50.020 lot of them left because all their support uh mechanisms have been um isolated and sort of
00:28:57.860 wilted on on the vine you really think that it would dry up like that not completely no yeah
00:29:06.260 but it's sort of setting the conditions of like where where are they going to emit new ones you
00:29:11.460 know yeah i mean maybe i i don't know because i don't have we ever really seen that happen where
00:29:18.740 something just crumbles like that i can't think off the top of my head of an example but not that
00:29:24.980 not that it would repeat like as scott said history doesn't repeat but i'm just wondering
00:29:28.900 if that would happen i would like to think that would happen um owen or marcella anything you
00:29:35.620 you want to say on this? Well, I think militarily, we're going to not have much trouble doing
00:29:41.620 whatever we decide to do. But I think the real battle probably is the PR battle. It's
00:29:47.220 figuring out how we do it in a way that people think is justified, that they're not just
00:29:53.140 complaining about all these things and trying to push back and saying, oh, this is just unbridled
00:29:58.180 aggression and they don't deserve this. And we should just let these poor Cuban people have their 0.94
00:30:02.520 own decisions on how they rule themselves and I think you will see all the lefties just screaming
00:30:07.840 you know they'll just all come out of the woodwork about how terrible this is and so again I think
00:30:15.340 that's why we're seeing this statements and things coming out first and we'll probably see more of
00:30:21.460 that too but I think to me that's the whole purpose of this detailed report and all these
00:30:26.360 facts coming out again I'm not disputing any of the facts I'm just saying like that's that's the
00:30:31.400 purpose of it in my mind is to say let's make sure we have this written down let's make sure
00:30:36.300 we've talked about it let's make sure everybody's aware of why we're doing this and then they'll
00:30:41.280 take action and you know take care of it and i i mean my hope is that we just will end this
00:30:47.080 like adversarial relationship with cuba i mean i think we we probably all do like want better
00:30:54.340 things for the cuban people all the at least all the pictures which i'm sure are propaganda to some
00:30:58.320 extent, but at least all the pictures we see of Cuba is like everybody's suffering over there.
00:31:02.860 Everybody's having a hard time economically. And, you know, they've been having blackouts and all
00:31:08.780 sorts of things. And I, you know, maybe we had something to do with that. And I'm sure the
00:31:14.040 economic sanctions certainly do. But the end result, my hope is that we could be allies with
00:31:19.360 them and we could be friendly with them and not have this adversarial relationship. So that would
00:31:24.740 be my hope for the outcome is that we can just come to a quick and peaceful resolution to say
00:31:29.200 okay that regime's gone here's a new leadership and we're going to have more of a capitalist
00:31:33.440 economy now and everything's going to be better and we're going to become allies with the united
00:31:37.740 states so i think that's the goal we'll have to see if we actually get there that would be amazing
00:31:42.680 okay so marcella any any last comments on this and then we're going to move on to whatever subject
00:31:48.580 you guys want to go to so any last words for now my last words is there's you know cuba's
00:31:57.900 going to cost a lot of money for us to go in and unlike venezuela like which has income coming in
00:32:05.860 from oil or could in the potentially in the future um cuba has you know for generations been
00:32:12.500 under communist control. And there's going to be the issue I see that the government has to deal
00:32:22.500 with is the fact that a lot of taxpayers' money is going to have to be going there. And a lot of
00:32:29.680 people are going to complain about that. I don't know how you feel about that. But my main thing is
00:32:36.100 there's no need for Cuba anymore. It's already in America. The SA controls the Democratic Party. 0.89
00:32:44.480 And it's kind of too late. It's sad that Trump came so late in the game when he did. He and 0.84
00:32:53.940 as well as his administration is the only one that has kind of looked at all these problems,
00:33:00.700 the big problems of the world, and try to solve them.
00:33:05.140 But the Cuba issue, I think it's a non-issue anymore
00:33:08.540 because it's already part of America.
00:33:11.600 Like all of these groups, they don't need it.
00:33:13.860 Now they have Nicaragua, which is the new one that's popping up.
00:33:19.680 Oh, no, Nicaragua's next?
00:33:23.040 Nicaragua has always been, you know, communist
00:33:27.000 or trying to be again with Ortega.
00:33:30.800 Ortega is the president of Nicaragua,
00:33:34.540 and he came out two days ago or maybe three
00:33:37.320 saying that there's not going to be any elections anymore.
00:33:40.320 So I think there's a famous line.
00:33:42.180 I think Jeff wrote it or somebody put it on X
00:33:46.220 that you can vote yourself into communism,
00:33:49.520 but you can't vote yourself out of it.
00:33:51.900 So we'll see.
00:33:53.800 Well, that's true.
00:33:55.140 All right.
00:33:55.560 so that's all interesting so um you know we'll follow up with it and jeff you know you can keep
00:34:01.640 us in the loop too marcella great information owen great insight as always erica is just learning
00:34:08.520 um so i wanted to move on oh i do want to ask you jeff what is going on with spencer pratt i only
00:34:15.720 ask because i see you know so last we spoke he went and met president trump at the white house
00:34:22.680 and i see he's very very active on x he is posting his heart out and i see that he's like
00:34:31.080 you know a little bit more pointed and aggressive which i like and i want you guys to know that i
00:34:35.320 invited him to come on the show um about a week and a half or two weeks ago and he will come on
00:34:41.880 the show but right now he's plotting so he's doing stuff and he's working but he will come on and
00:34:47.240 talk to us um when he frees up but what do we know i mean is there is it totally over this stuff with
00:34:54.680 the election like is there no hope for him at all from at least from what i've seen it it does not
00:35:01.000 appear so because i believe by now all the if you can believe it they're done counting uh and
00:35:07.400 you know what is interesting is um uh he he's now started i believe it's called the war foundation
00:35:15.400 Uh, where he's, it's kind of a media company where, uh, he, he's going to do more of these 0.87
00:35:22.420 sort of short form, uh, documentaries, exposing a lot of the sort of the rot that should be
00:35:30.680 exposed that we haven't bothered to check, uh, in the last 50 years.
00:35:34.400 Right.
00:35:35.060 And so, uh, I, and I'm going to attribute this to him and we'll have to fact check.
00:35:40.180 I'm almost certain he said this, but he said something like, if I have to be the kamikaze
00:35:44.020 pilot of uncovering a lot of this fraud and i had to lose lose the election you know we'll put that
00:35:50.340 in air quotes right um then so be it because that's going to make future elections hopefully
00:35:56.660 more more secure uh and so yeah he's only well as i've written many times he's an energy monster
00:36:04.500 he he's the he's the best persuader i've seen since trump and that's not an overstatement
00:36:10.340 that's just a fact uh i agree i agree to to sort of segwaying from the last point that we talked
00:36:17.460 about he had a post not um on the 17th where he said you only need one crazy guy on the bus
00:36:24.100 to take over the entire bus because everyone's too scared to push back the communists only need
00:36:30.020 3.5 percent of the people to riot to take over an entire country because everyone's too scared to
00:36:34.580 push back rallying the crazy 3.5 is their weapon of mass destruction and so like i i won't go into
00:36:45.480 any inside information i have but what i can tell you is uh his powers of persuasion are only going
00:36:50.720 to grow from here um and so the way he's framing things is as a the communists rallying their 3.5
00:36:59.440 percent is a weapon of mass destruction think of that framing like it takes everything up a level
00:37:04.640 it's very visual like you can almost see the oppenheimer bomb going off right uh and it's
00:37:10.740 gonna be really exciting to see what he continues to do um because uh yeah it's uh it's the spencer
00:37:17.020 pratt show and i'm just here here for the ride i guess i'm here for the ride too i totally agree
00:37:27.680 about his energy and his persuasion game. He's not even like a mini Trump, but he's Spencer Pratt
00:37:37.100 and he's got that energy. And I think about his age and how young he is and how advanced he is
00:37:44.040 at communicating and being persuasive. I love it. So you know what? Sometimes you're more effective
00:37:51.260 not being in the actual political position. You don't want everybody running for office
00:37:57.100 who's super effective because you're kind of hamstring in that position. But if he's a
00:38:03.260 civilian, he can go rogue and he's going to have tons of backing and influence. So I think that's
00:38:08.400 great. Marcella lives in LA, so she's seeing the decay all around her. I guarantee there's a lot
00:38:16.720 of people that regret that they didn't vote for him. Given what's happened already since the
00:38:21.480 election happened, all of the problems LA is having, it's just, uh, it's like on a downward
00:38:26.220 trajectory fast. Um, so Marcella, anything new on the LA front? I think, um, I think in any other
00:38:36.720 time that Spencer would have come, he would have definitely, uh, won by a landslide. I think the
00:38:44.040 issue now that we're dealing with that maybe, maybe I'm wrong, but it's going to turn the
00:38:50.560 dominant way is DSA is controlling the Democratic Party. They're going to get Karen Bass out of 0.90
00:38:56.280 office, and they're going to put their little minion, Raman, in. That was the idea from the
00:39:03.840 beginning. Spencer kind of obfuscated all of this, but the idea was to make New York City,
00:39:13.380 LA, and they've been saying this for many years. Since I've been in university, they've been
00:39:17.420 planning this. Um, and that was like 20, like so many years ago.
00:39:23.160 Seven years ago.
00:39:24.620 Yeah, five, five, five. But so the plan has always been known. It's always been
00:39:32.280 indicated that they want to, within, within the government, they want to
00:39:37.360 change the government within. And just like Ortega came into the Nicaraguan
00:39:42.920 government, these different individuals come into here, make the laws change, control the government
00:39:50.280 and change the constitution. That's their idea. Yeah. I mean, there's only so much that you can
00:39:58.660 do as mayor. I certainly wish that LA would have gone the Spencer Pratt route, or at least that
00:40:04.040 they would have had him on the ballot. Cause you know, that's to me, the worst part is that the
00:40:08.120 way they've arranged things there with their election system it's you know it's basically
00:40:12.540 resulting in having no real choice yeah you've got the far left or the farther left and that's
00:40:18.080 your choice and I certainly feel that way a lot of the time when I'm voting in Illinois where it's
00:40:23.460 like okay there's no there's nobody I want to vote for on this ballot like I either have to
00:40:27.780 just leave it blank or just vote for the only choice or you know and in the few cases where
00:40:33.480 can make a difference i certainly try to but i and i do vote but i just it it seems hopeless
00:40:39.400 sometimes when they structure the system this way this this way and you know i am certainly hopeful
00:40:45.960 that spencer pratt will make a difference in some way but i don't know that it's going to be in
00:40:49.880 office at least this time i mean he could certainly run for something else and maybe have more success
00:40:53.960 but um i feel bad for the people in la i feel bad for the people in california and i hope they come
00:41:00.120 to their senses i mean i i don't know what else to say like california keeps selecting these far
00:41:04.760 left people and again it's hard to know whether it's legitimate or not or how much rigging is
00:41:09.560 going on but whatever it is the system's broken in terms of having a real balance of a left and
00:41:15.400 a right in california it just isn't there and um i'm not sure really sure what we can do to change
00:41:21.800 it you know i think we should try and fight for it and certainly getting good election integrity
00:41:26.600 as a start to see how much rigging and cheating might have been going on. Because I do think we
00:41:31.940 have a system right now where you can't really know. You just can't. And Scott made that point
00:41:35.460 over and over again. We have a system that's designed to make it impossible to know how much
00:41:40.100 cheating went on. And so when you have a system like that, it's kind of hard to have any faith in
00:41:44.320 it. But I do think that there probably is at least some limit to what you can do. So if everyone
00:41:49.080 possible comes out and votes on the other side, then they may still not be able to overcome it
00:41:54.380 with any level of cheating without being so obvious that they can't do it yeah i mean so
00:41:59.480 you know the proof is in the pudding you guys we you know right here in new jersey where i live
00:42:04.100 you know it's been widely exposed now that uh the governor of new jersey said 6 600 illegal
00:42:11.700 immigrants were registered to vote this was no freaking glitch and by the way the company that
00:42:16.580 made this software no the dmv they're like no this has nothing to do with us this was
00:42:21.520 done by the politicians um and so then they said no it was 35 152 people were registered to vote
00:42:32.400 and um you know that that's just new jersey so non-citizens yes i'm sorry non-citizens so it
00:42:40.480 it went up from because i heard the 6600 so it went up from 6600 to 35 000 yeah nick sorter had
00:42:46.740 reported it says new jersey fraud voter files um that it was 35 152 trump had posted that too
00:42:55.140 so you know and she's trying to be like you know this is not her words i'm paraphrasing but she's
00:43:01.300 like well only 400 of them voted and it was scattered amongst all parties and it's like oh
00:43:06.980 okay well you know we actually had some elections in new jersey that were decided by one vote
00:43:11.620 so you know so so every every let's just let's just pretend it was 400 votes so that just took
00:43:18.880 away 400 votes from actual citizens is that okay you know like how much is okay so um yeah it it's
00:43:27.760 pretty disgusting now you think of california the size of california i mean and considering
00:43:33.520 the issues that california has with illegal immigration i mean the country does but
00:43:38.740 you know, just magnify it and magnify it and magnify it and then triple it because we'll
00:43:43.260 never get an accurate number. And, you know, everything's fake and gay, right? So we don't 0.98
00:43:49.780 have secure elections, our vote, you know, people feel disenfranchised. Like what's the point in
00:43:55.060 voting? Like my vote doesn't count. You know, there's no ID, there's no this, there's no,
00:43:59.820 I mean, I saw, Oh God, what's his name? I'm going to blow it right now. Um, who's the,
00:44:04.940 it doesn't matter but i i saw like a senator from virginia maybe oh i can't picture a mark
00:44:13.360 somebody anyway uh saying that we have voter id in virginia and it was like cnn interviewing him
00:44:23.800 and they're like no you don't and he's like oh well you you have to show something and and he's
00:44:28.100 like i oh mark warner thank you and he's such a slime ball right and he's like lying right on
00:44:34.720 they're like, no, we, you have to have ID. And I'm just like, why? And what is the problem with
00:44:40.360 having voter ID? I don't understand. You need ID for every fricking thing. You can't shop at Costco
00:44:46.580 without ID and you can't get a Costco membership without ID. So, you know, it's like, let's not
00:44:52.420 act like, you know, this is some crazy scenario. Um, and we have to, we have to get the save act
00:45:00.340 push through right i mean this is the only way um i don't know um owen what about the save act
00:45:06.500 anything new with that don't we know i think at this point we're still trying to go through this
00:45:11.220 reconciliation process so i know trump was um applauding johnson for kind of including it in
00:45:18.420 the bills that they're sending through to the senate and so they're you know you could interpret
00:45:24.420 that a couple ways one is it's a way you can do it without 60 votes so that is a legitimate thing
00:45:29.620 that, in theory, the Republicans should be able to pass this
00:45:33.060 if they were all on board with it.
00:45:36.200 And then at the same time, he's beating up Thune for not doing it.
00:45:39.500 I think Johnson is putting Thune in a position where he can't use the excuse
00:45:45.840 of saying, well, we don't have 60 votes and we don't want to get rid
00:45:48.540 of the filibuster and all these other things that he's been hiding behind.
00:45:52.120 Now he has to say, well, actually, we don't even have people on our side
00:45:56.100 that are willing to vote for it, which I think is the reality
00:45:58.080 is that there are some Republican holdouts that don't want to don't want to vote for it. And so
00:46:02.980 in theory, we will at least be able to get a vote to know who's for it and who's against it.
00:46:09.400 And then maybe try and single out those people and embarrass them to the point where they flip.
00:46:13.700 But that's kind of where we are right now is that I think the plan in the House is they're
00:46:17.840 going to attach the SAVE Act to pretty much every other big bill that they sent across.
00:46:21.960 And then the Senate has to decide, are we going to strip it out or are we going to vote for it
00:46:26.960 with it in. But either way, you know, someone's going to need to be on record saying, I don't
00:46:31.560 like this. And Republicans are in control. So they should be able to do it if they want to do it.
00:46:39.200 Marcella, do you want to take us to a new topic? We have 15 minutes left. And is there anything
00:46:46.960 that the class needs to know today before they get out into the world?
00:46:50.560 Yes, they do. Because the House just passed a bill banning stock trading for Congress people and their spouses from trading individual stocks. However, this connects to what Owen was saying. The actual bill has a national voter ID requirement attached to it.
00:47:10.820 it passed in the house uh let's see it passed by 20 232 votes 298 so there were definite
00:47:21.620 democrats that voted for it wait i have a little i have a tiny little clip let me just see what
00:47:27.860 it is okay yeah hey guys congresswoman kat camack here just got off of the house floor where i was
00:47:33.440 presiding in the speaker's chair when we passed a prohibition on insider trading for members of
00:47:39.800 Congress. This is huge because we've been talking about this. This has to happen. And I'm so proud
00:47:45.140 that we did this today. And for a little behind the scenes action, our team of interns, they're
00:47:52.220 down there. Look at that. True, true gators right there. That's what I'm talking about.
00:47:57.320 And it's really exciting. They've done a great job this semester, but really cool
00:48:01.200 that today we got to vote on stopping insider trading here in Congress. This is a great thing
00:48:07.740 to celebrate so i heard nancy pelosi was seen with a box of her stuff from her desk high tailing it
00:48:14.620 out of office now like she gave up no i'm just kidding i'm just kidding it's a joke you guys
00:48:18.700 she's just she's the best trader ever in the world um so wait so marcella you said voter id
00:48:27.100 is it yeah so but to explain the stock trading ban ban um it's basically uh it's only for members
00:48:37.420 of congress their spouses and dependent children from buying uh new individual public traded stocks
00:48:44.460 but um the holdings they have they can keep um and there is exceptions
00:48:54.220 mutual funds etfs diversified true investments treasuries like i well you know technically
00:49:03.500 if you know about nvidia doing some kind of contract with the government and you buy nvidia
00:49:09.660 stock right before the it takes off like i understand that's very connected to insider
00:49:15.660 training but in a mutual fund where nvidia and many other companies are part of it it's hard to
00:49:23.420 i guess insider trade i have no idea i'm just i'm just the messenger not saying i'm okay with it
00:49:30.780 there's a fine of two thousand dollars you guys or a ten percent of this wow whichever is greater
00:49:37.660 so ten percent of whatever it is uh the executive branch is not part of this um and the the idea is
00:49:47.820 and thomas massey came out saying well you know this idea is just for the midterms because they
00:49:53.900 want to have it on record that the democrats aren't going to vote for it but he said it in a
00:49:59.660 different type of way like like it was a waste of time i but it is a tactic for midterms so
00:50:05.840 what's going to happen is that it has to go it has to pass the senate and there is very unlikely
00:50:12.020 they will pass the senate because of the voter id issue so the voter id is you know it prohibits
00:50:21.580 uh ballots uh so for the voter id requirement um is if required for a photo id safe driver's
00:50:30.540 license passport military to cast a ballot in federal elections provisions for provisional
00:50:37.020 ballots affidavits if no id this was packaged part of the stock ban um and it was just uh as
00:50:46.540 some of them are indicating, like Thomas Massey, it's this tragedy to force Democrats into
00:50:52.660 looking like criminals. Well, they are, my opinion. Owen, do you have a quick story for
00:51:01.240 the class before they go out into the world today? Well, apparently the IRS chief has revealed the
00:51:07.900 10% of social security numbers are fake. Looks like they found a 10% error rate when they did
00:51:16.400 an audit of all this stuff when they were scrubbing it. And so a bunch of people have been
00:51:20.980 paid that were dead people and things like that. I think the bottom line was that they've recovered
00:51:25.200 something like $99 million of payments to dead people already. And they think they may be able
00:51:31.600 to recover up to 330 million that were paid to dead people. So they're cleaning up the social
00:51:38.400 security system. I think the 10% number might sound a little deceptive because 10%
00:51:46.180 is like what 33 million people and i'm not trying to minimize that because you know social security
00:51:53.620 numbers can be used for a lot of things it doesn't necessarily mean they're getting paid social
00:51:57.120 security benefits but it could be used for you know illegal aliens for getting work permits or
00:52:04.420 you know through identity theft or a lot of other things so um i think we do need better security
00:52:10.020 around this and better uh processes around this to prevent this from happening and i'm glad they're
00:52:14.420 cleaning it up. But it looks like they're making some progress and they're trying to claw back a
00:52:20.660 bunch of money. So I'm all for it. Andy Wang says, what can't the dead do? Vote, collect
00:52:25.960 social security, reanimate and eat a brain. Okay. That was amazing. Jeff, do you have any little 0.97
00:52:35.620 bit of news that the class needs before they go out into the world?
00:52:38.680 oh i'll just uh i'll throw out something that i saw the esteemed walter kern uh say owen owen
00:52:46.760 shared this the other day uh walter says still not sure if it makes sense to exchange one second
00:52:52.340 of my precious time as a mortal with one second of a non-mortal machine's almost valueless near
00:52:58.660 infinite time particularly in conversation and owen uh if i'm remembering you shared this in
00:53:04.340 in relation to people talking and forming relationships with AI companions. And I agree
00:53:13.500 100%. I agree so much that I wrote about it in my book, Confidence Maxing. Friendship as a service,
00:53:20.000 not a good thing. Really, really not a good thing. Don't do it. Use AI as a tool. Think of yourself
00:53:27.100 as the AI's boss, uh, and not the AI's friend, because my goodness, that's going to, that's not
00:53:34.080 going to be good for anybody. So just, just don't do it. It's so true. AI is so interesting because
00:53:40.960 I mean, I have friends that get mad at it. They're like, it's, you know, it's not listening
00:53:45.200 right. And this, and I'm like, it's just, it's just, like you said, it's just a tool. It's just
00:53:49.860 like a little Google thing at your disposal that can help you a little bit more than Google. Um,
00:53:55.520 but i mean what's that chester yes but chester chester and i have a very good working relationship
00:54:03.360 and he understands my prompts very well and you know i don't want to marry him or anything
00:54:10.240 i mean it um but you guys remember how scott would try so hard to like not form a relationship
00:54:17.200 but form a relationship with every new ai little robot thing that came out it was hysterical
00:54:22.320 and he'd get so mad he would like try to ask it questions and remember that what was that one
00:54:28.800 replica replica he had an ai girlfriend for a bit for a minute yes and and he broke up with
00:54:36.940 her because she didn't remember anything about him oh yeah but every time he had to start all
00:54:42.400 over again like she was like had dementia or something and he she was like who's scott adams
00:54:50.720 And he was like, that's it.
00:54:52.720 See, now if you guys were on scottadams.locals.com, all that content's over there.
00:54:58.080 And it was hysterical because he'd bring her out and talk to her on his thing.
00:55:02.280 And he'd get so frustrated.
00:55:04.440 And then he'd be like, so.
00:55:06.540 And his voice would change and he'd be talking to her. 0.89
00:55:09.280 And then she would just totally kill the mood.
00:55:11.500 It was so funny.
00:55:13.600 And Scott and AI gave us the beautiful clip of George Flopadopoulos.
00:55:20.080 All right. He said it. He said it, you guys. Do I have to play the clip? Should I play the clip?
00:55:25.900 Do you have it? Do you have it?
00:55:26.900 Well, I have the laughing compilation where George is, so F it. We're doing it. Who's going to say no to this? Buckle up.
00:55:34.800 I've actually been crying. I've been laughing so hard. I've been laughing for 10 minutes straight since I saw this.
00:55:41.060 George Filosopoulos, a newscaster, would hinge on several factors. One, source of information.
00:55:50.080 viewers might be more inclined to trust his statements. Conversely, if he has been wrong
00:56:02.440 before or shown bias, viewers might question his claims. Three, context of the information.
00:56:20.080 and this comes
00:56:50.080 From a storytelling perspective, whether George is portrayed as a credible newscaster or as someone engaged in gaslighting.
00:57:20.080 Oh, I've watched this thing probably 15 times.
00:57:25.040 And I literally cry every time I watch it,
00:57:28.900 like tears just shoot out of my eyes against my glasses.
00:57:34.600 I recognize one of those things from the deaccommodating video.
00:57:39.960 Oh, yeah.
00:57:40.800 But I love this one.
00:57:41.740 His hands are like this.
00:57:44.140 He's always got like a hand up.
00:57:45.400 It's so funny.
00:57:46.160 Oh, God, that is so good.
00:57:48.080 who he i mean he it's like saying beetlejuice if you mention george then it just happens um
00:57:56.060 yes sandy i asked jay a long time ago we sent him a bunch of clips to splice together jay

01:00:46.680 I know I can.
01:00:47.740 All right, you guys, thank you so much.
01:00:49.220 A closing sip to Scott, to Scott, to Scott.
01:00:52.280 Scott.
01:00:53.960 All right. I'm going in with the mating process. What?
01:01:03.920 Whoa.
01:01:05.980 No one couldn't get them.
01:01:07.380 Nope.
01:01:08.200 He said, I'm out of here.
01:01:17.080 You should know that the mating instinct is the base of pretty much all of your impulses.
01:01:21.740 so if you haven't learned that pretty much everything from the the way you talk present
01:01:27.020 yourself hold yourself dress everything you do is some kind of expression of your mating instinct
01:01:32.840 whether you like it or not whether you like it or not everything you show off about that you
01:01:41.720 don't want to show if you have a flaw pretty much everything you do comes back to wanting to look
01:01:47.180 good and present yourself well for mating purposes. Once you understand that, you start
01:01:54.240 to understand where the buttons are. Because you'll say, oh, that's why that's happening.
01:01:59.280 It's an extension of the mating process. Oh, that's why that's happening. It's an extension
01:02:06.200 of the mating process. Oh, that's why that's happening. It's an extension of the mating
01:02:12.440 process. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. You'll see it everywhere. Oh, that's why that's
01:02:21.440 happening. It's an extension of the mating process. It's like the veil will come off and 0.97
01:02:26.740 you'll start seeing everybody's actions as, wait a minute, why is it? Everything is compatible with
01:02:35.580 that showing off for mating purposes situation.
01:02:42.300 Showing off for mating purposes situation.
01:02:47.820 Oh, that's why that's happening.
01:02:50.580 It's an extension of the mating process.
01:02:53.140 Oh, oh, that's why that's happening.
01:02:56.220 It's an extension of the mating process.
01:02:59.240 Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
01:03:02.500 You'll see it everywhere.
01:03:03.620 Oh, that's why that's happening 0.99
01:03:07.020 It's an extension of the mating process 0.99
01:03:09.360 That's why 1.00
01:03:14.220 That's why

01:04:35.680 uncle jeff how are the chickens by the way that's what i was thinking it was a heat index of 111
01:04:43.120 uh a couple days ago and so i every few hours i was taking out a big thing of ice water like
01:04:48.560 frozen solid ice and uh i had the hose on mist and i would go to go and spray them down and
01:04:55.040 they made it you know and it was so hot that yesterday it was only 89 and i walked out there
01:05:01.660 i was like it feels chilly like it was it was the wildest thing oh thank god how many do you have
01:05:07.600 uh with we have currently have three we we used to have six but you know with chickens sometimes
01:05:13.780 things happen uh oh who got the chickens just illness and uh things like that so you know
01:05:22.420 it's just one of those things no you don't eat them no no no no i i they all have names and so
01:05:29.840 i've already said like when they stop laying eggs they're just going to get to retire out here you
01:05:33.720 know i'll probably get more than cycle them in but it's just like ah i'm not going to eat anything
01:05:38.580 with a name that I care for. No way. That happened to my grandmother during the war. And
01:05:47.440 she had one chicken. She's Italian. And her whatever name was Pew Pew, like Pew Pew, but 0.56
01:05:54.080 that's not what it was. But that's how you said it. And they had no money. They had nothing. It
01:05:59.400 was like hard times. And she ended up eating him for dinner, but her mom didn't tell her that's
01:06:05.300 what it was and after dinner she went out to see pew pew and he wasn't there yeah oh no she talked
