00:01:52.140
his favorite city. It's September 23rd, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
00:01:55.820
You're fighting for freedom! Shame on you, you censorious bug!
00:02:02.020
Justin Trudeau is back in New York City again. I used to keep track of how many times he went there.
00:02:16.900
It's in the dozens. He has gone to New York more than he's gone to the great cities of Calgary
00:02:23.080
or Edmonton, probably more than he's even been to Vancouver. He just likes it in New York, and who
00:02:29.440
doesn't? But he finds every excuse to go there instead of to deal with Canadian issues and
00:02:34.160
Canadians. When he goes to New York, he can pretend he's in the big leagues. If you've ever been to
00:02:39.240
Manhattan, it can be quite awe-inspiring. The masters of the universe, the biggest people in
00:02:44.200
every realm are there. Trudeau is a little person, but he can look bigger even if he doesn't quite fit
00:02:49.800
the suit because he travels in style. The government of Canada private jet and lots of money and power to
00:02:55.640
clear the way for him. He couldn't earn it on his own. Now, in fairness, Trudeau doesn't really get a
00:03:01.460
lot of invitations anymore because he's a bit of an idiot. I mean, listen to this. Obviously, he got
00:03:08.460
this invitation, but would you invite this guy back? Mr. Prime Minister, the final word, any ask or
00:03:14.620
advice for everyone listening today? Well, I think one of the things, you started getting me thinking
00:03:19.640
about science fiction, and I was thinking about Jurassic Park, the original book, where Ian Malcolm,
00:03:26.140
played by Jeff Goldblum, talks about in the movie, talks about the accelerated pace of learning and
00:03:34.320
knowledge and science and the fact that if you're a martial arts expert, you will spend decades,
00:03:41.000
perhaps, getting to the point where you can, you know, kill someone with your finger. And the idea is,
00:03:46.980
once you gain that particular power, you will have lived with it and grown into it so much that
00:03:53.680
you'll never use it or never have to use it, except in unimaginable circumstances, because you have
00:03:59.160
gained control over the power you have. And, you know, the story of Jurassic Park, are waking up
00:04:04.960
dinosaurs again, or AI now, means that we are all busy stepping on each other as we're creating more and
00:04:14.300
more tools that we haven't had time to sit back and reflect on what's going to be the consequence of
00:04:20.200
this or what's going to be the challenge of that or what's going to be the benefit of this. We just
00:04:24.040
sort of throw it, throw it because we can. We're creating all these amazing new technologies.
00:04:28.640
Yeah, thanks for giving us some Jurassic Park analogy. And, you know, he said, oh, I read the
00:04:34.640
book. Oh, you read the book. Did you also read the Superman book? It's sort of embarrassing. I'm
00:04:40.100
sure he's told that story when he was a lot younger, like 20-something, trying to impress some chicks.
00:04:46.420
It doesn't really work when he's with some deep thinkers. I suppose it's an improvement over when he
00:04:53.280
used to do his fancy socks thing. Remember that? I mean, I remember he met with Angela Merkel. I
00:04:58.660
disagree with Merkel on every single thing. But it's hard to think of a more serious, dour,
00:05:04.160
sober-minded woman. And there was Justin Trudeau introducing himself and saying,
00:05:07.900
look at my socks. Did he get a load of my socks? Did you see that? Just absolutely embarrassing.
00:05:15.660
And after that first sort of chuckle at the new kid, the grown-ups really didn't want anything to do
00:05:22.460
with Trudeau. So many images of him attending G7 meetings or NATO meetings or other meetings, G20
00:05:29.400
meetings, and just no one comes over to Trudeau. They just, why would they say hi to him? They're
00:05:35.460
there for very serious matters. When he does manage to strike up a conversation, like here he is with Xi
00:05:43.780
Jinping, who absolutely tears a strip off him. Take a look.
00:05:48.380
Everything we discusses and leaks to the Pesach, that's not appropriate. And that's not all the way
00:06:02.340
If there is sincerity on your part. If there is sincerity on your part, we will continue to have. We will continue to look to work constructively together, but there will be things we will disagree on.
00:06:24.100
One of my favorite shots is when he was sitting next to Jair Bolsonaro, who just wouldn't even make eye contact with him. No one thinks of Canada as a serious contender anymore. When Stephen Harper was our prime minister, they did. We punched above our weight.
00:06:49.100
These days, we're not included. As we talked about with Aaron Gunn, NATO has exercises. We're not invited. There's a subgroup of NATO. Actually, it's beyond NATO. It's called AUKUS. Australia, UK, and US is what that stands for. We're not included. We're not invited. They're going ahead and making decisions and planning without us. We're sort of the, at the kids' table at Christmas dinner.
00:07:15.400
You know, Justin Trudeau really should have listened to Donald Trump. Remember when Trump visited Trudeau, asked how much Trudeau was spending on military spending, and caught him in a lie? Do you remember that?
00:07:28.400
Canada does not meet the 2% standard. Should it have a plan to meet the 2% standard?
00:07:33.400
Well, we'll put him on a payment plan, you know? We'll put Canada on a payment plan, right? I'm sure the prime minister would love that. What are you at? What is your number?
00:07:41.400
The number we talked about is 70% increase over these past years, including, and for the coming years, including significant investments in our fighter jets, significant investments in our naval fleets. We are increasing significantly our defense spending from previous governments that cut it.
00:08:21.400
Donald Trump did more accountability journalism there than any actual Canadian journalist had done.
00:08:27.400
But, you know, I suppose when you're still the prime minister of Canada, even a degraded, dilapidated Canada, you could still get certain invitations.
00:08:37.400
I mean, I'm sure the president of Malawi, just to pick a country at random, you know, you're still the president of something.
00:08:44.400
So, I mean, he can still get audiences like at that Jurassic Park conference.
00:08:49.400
It wouldn't surprise me if he had to buy his way in with some $100,000 grant for the privilege of speaking.
00:08:57.400
But I think there's a little bit of what happens out of town stays in out of town.
00:09:02.400
You know that phrase, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
00:09:05.400
I think Trudeau thinks he can sort of live a second or slightly different life outside the country.
00:09:15.400
It's a very limited press corps that travel with him.
00:09:17.400
And since they're flying with him, they are sort of chummy.
00:09:20.400
It's also I think he can let his hair down a bit.
00:09:40.400
I'm just trying to observe why is he so wobbly?
00:10:07.400
And I understand he's going on the Stephen Colbert show tonight, along with RuPaul, the drag queen.
00:10:12.400
So actually, that's a dream come true for Trudeau.
00:10:21.400
Bill Gates is going on the show later this week.
00:10:24.400
I mean, if you actually wanted something exciting to entertain your viewers with, you would not invite Bill Gates.
00:10:30.400
But if your job is to propagandize your remaining viewers, you have Bill Gates on.
00:10:35.400
Remember how atrocious Stephen Colbert was during lockdowns with his vaccine sketch?
00:11:15.400
Anyways, a place where any prime minister or president,
00:11:30.060
no matter how disreputable or unpopular or childish or past his prime,
00:11:35.780
a place where any of those people are welcome, no matter what,
00:11:45.740
They have diplomatic immunity coming to the UN.
00:11:49.260
So they couldn't very well turn away Justin Trudeau, now could they?
00:11:53.380
Not that anyone came out to listen to him give his speech.
00:12:00.440
In a room that holds hundreds of people, it looks like maybe 10 or 15 people were there, max.
00:12:09.200
And I'm pretty sure they were just waiting for the next guy.
00:12:14.000
Anyways, I want to show you what Trudeau actually said.
00:12:18.480
It's not like a Trump speech, 90 minutes or so.
00:12:25.000
I think it's just like some AI collage mashed up of his past speeches.
00:12:33.480
And here's how Canada's Prime Minister put our face to the world.
00:12:39.300
As we meet here in New York at the UN General Assembly for this summit of the future, we're
00:12:47.680
Faced with escalating instability, undermining the very foundations of the international order,
00:12:54.220
beset by the increasingly dire costs of climate change, contending with rising inequality that
00:13:03.800
So you're at the United Nations and what's your message in September of 2024?
00:13:21.600
All Canadians care about is vast immigration, the cost of housing, jobs.
00:13:33.560
The erosion of women's rights, LGBT plus rights, and indigenous rights, and grappling with dire
00:13:41.660
humanitarian crises perpetuating record levels of displacement.
00:13:48.200
On the one hand, we can bury our heads in the sand, eschewing multilateralism in favor
00:13:57.580
Or we can recognize that collectively, we have a responsibility to set our differences
00:14:03.960
aside, to confront the serious global challenges, and to deliver on a pact for the future that
00:14:11.740
builds a more peaceful world, but also one where everyone, every generation, has a real and fair
00:14:22.080
I'll give him that point, but not for the reasons he would claim.
00:14:25.560
Women's rights are eroding in Canada, in America, in the UK, across the leftist West,
00:14:34.800
I note that he no longer says the Q2SL or any of the other alphabet suit.
00:14:40.160
It's true that women's rights are eroding, because transgenderism allows men into women's
00:14:45.280
places, whether it's sports teams on the field, or changing rooms, or bathrooms, or even in
00:14:52.920
So yeah, so it's not happening the way I bet he would say it is.
00:14:56.260
And it is true that there are record levels of displacement in terms of mass immigration,
00:15:06.160
If you look at the top countries from which so-called refugees are coming to Canada, for
00:15:11.440
example, they're not being pushed here because of global wars.
00:15:15.060
India is the number one source of refugee applicants.
00:15:25.120
If you're coming here from India claiming you're a refugee, it's not because you were pushed
00:15:29.280
It's because you were pulled here by Justin Trudeau's promise of easy entry.
00:15:33.440
He goes on to talk about people getting a fair shot in Canada and a global order.
00:15:40.360
It feels like his Canadian stump speech that he would give in a losing by-election campaign.
00:15:46.320
It doesn't really feel like a United Nations speech.
00:15:50.980
In Canada, that's what we are squarely focused on.
00:15:54.940
As I travel across my country, Canadians of all walks of life, but particularly young Canadians,
00:16:04.340
They're worried about the state of the world and the future.
00:16:07.420
But most importantly, they're worried about the very promise of Canada.
00:16:12.680
The promise that if you work hard, you can do better than the generations that preceded you.
00:16:25.080
The solution to anxiety and angst is not to deceive and deflect, but to take action.
00:16:33.740
We know that confident, successful countries invest in their citizens, in their workers,
00:16:41.020
In national $10-a-day childcare that saves families money while ensuring women can choose the best path for themselves.
00:16:50.880
In nutritious school meals, so our kids can focus on learning and growing.
00:16:57.140
In an ambitious housing plan that will deliver good, abundant, and affordable homes.
00:17:03.460
In a national dental care program that in its first months has already delivered quality care to three quarters of a million Canadians.
00:17:13.320
In a growth and industrial strategy that creates good-paying, community-building, middle-class jobs,
00:17:22.920
Yeah, none of those are really United Nations things.
00:17:26.160
I think we know why the other leaders weren't there.
00:17:31.440
He's talking about getting free dentists or something, all while fighting climate change.
00:17:40.340
Not solving climate change or stopping climate change because it's insoluble.
00:17:46.280
If you think of it as a human problem, the climate has always changed.
00:17:50.060
That's why they never say stopping climate change.
00:17:58.180
So he sent the United Nations to talk about 750,000 people seeing the dentist.
00:18:07.640
These choices reflect a commitment to investing in our people and in our future,
00:18:13.440
but also a commitment to tackle global problems that we all share.
00:18:19.180
Climate change and inflation don't stop at borders.
00:18:26.840
Inequality is a problem for the entire world, for people from all walks of life.
00:18:32.500
If we really want to serve our own citizens, we must together tackle the great global challenges.
00:18:40.160
We should work within institutions such as the United Nations and renew our commitment to the sustainable development agenda for 2030.
00:18:51.820
That's a globalist, socialist environmental agenda he's talking about there.
00:18:55.640
By the way, that can never be achieved by design.
00:18:58.200
And like I say, they're not trying to actually fix a problem and then call it quits.
00:19:03.880
This is the left-wing mindset in so many things.
00:19:10.720
They don't actually want to clean up these homeless camps or these drug dens in Canada,
00:19:16.160
because then they'd be out of their jobs and out of their grants.
00:19:18.580
We need to protect and support the rule of law and democratic values.
00:19:24.460
We should spearhead efforts to reform the international financial institutions.
00:19:34.220
This is from the guy who declared martial law illegally and unconstitutionally,
00:19:40.460
seized bank accounts, but also at the same time laundered Chinese corrupt money into the Liberal Party.
00:19:48.580
We must put women's and girls' rights at the very heart of our efforts,
00:19:53.800
much like we have done with our feminist international assistance policy.
00:19:59.220
We must recognise also that rich countries such as Canada have a duty to fight climate change,
00:20:05.060
which is what we're doing through our commitment of $5 billion towards global climate financing efforts.
00:20:13.040
And we are the first big oil and gas-producing country to establish an emission ceiling in this sector.
00:20:26.020
do you hear blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah?
00:20:27.180
Do you hear just that muttering, mumbling in the background?
00:20:29.900
Does anyone actually hear any words when they say that?
00:20:32.800
Even Greta Thunberg has moved on from climate change.
00:20:55.460
feminist climate change god this is so tired all right last clip delegates nearly 80 years ago in
00:21:04.960
the aftermath of the most destructive war in our collective history we formed these united nations
00:21:12.080
and we did so with the aspiration to build something better for today's generations yes
00:21:18.560
but also for many generations to come all of us gathered here have an opportunity to hold true
00:21:26.880
to that mission to fulfill the promise of our pact for the future to deliver fairness for every
00:21:33.240
generation and that's it it's done lord have mercy he did say he's going to spend another five billion
00:21:40.600
dollars of your money in climate finance foreign aid oh it's feminist climate finance what does
00:21:49.500
that mean other than he's just going to shovel more cash to his friends i don't know no one in canada
00:21:54.620
knows what any of this means why did he even go there is it just to get away to get away from his
00:22:01.000
ex to get away from the by-elections he's losing it'll be interesting to see if he has any brightness
00:22:07.320
in his eyes on tv tonight with rupaul and stephen colbert he used to love going on those shows they
00:22:14.520
treated him like a star i think even he knows it's um it's sort of sad stay with us more ahead
00:22:23.100
i'm in brazil so i'm using a vpn to get on the internet what's a vpn it stands for a virtual
00:22:33.900
private network and you get around these government firewalls suddenly the president of
00:22:38.900
brazil banned his whole country from going on twitter it was a political censorship news i've
00:22:44.140
downloaded the vpn from a company called pia vpn we've teamed up with them at rebel and it's a great
00:22:51.380
deal i got on the internet really quickly safely and even i'm a bit of a technophobe i managed to
00:22:56.600
figure it out with two clicks and here's the great news if you go to piavpn.com slash rebel news
00:23:05.220
not only do you get a big discount but they pay us a bit of a commission too everyone's a winner
00:23:10.180
your freedom your vpn and a little bit of cash coming to support rebel news i'm using it myself
00:23:17.320
to get around the censors in brazil you can use it too that's piavpn.com slash rebel news
00:23:24.400
when i was a kid we didn't have a lot of tv channels but one of them had a great kid show
00:23:38.180
called the hilarious house of frightenstein it's sort of a cult classic in canada uh they filmed it
00:23:46.000
all in like three days like the entire uh all the episodes for the season and there were funny
00:23:51.400
characters and it was sort of a comedy and it's sort of a spooky vampire thing but they had one of
00:23:58.680
these little vignettes every episode it was like a mashup of little skits and sketches but every day
00:24:07.640
they had a physics professor named professor julius sumner miller and although he was quite
00:24:15.800
dramatic to look at and i think he tussled his hair to fit in with the hilarious house of
00:24:19.960
frightenstein he was absolutely brilliant at physics and more than that he was brilliant at talking about
00:24:27.560
physics and i don't know i must have been 10 years old at the time and i laughed at all the jokes but i
00:24:33.440
could hardly wait till professor julius sumner miller had his weekly appearance i loved it
00:24:41.120
here's what i watched as a kid and it was sort of by accident because i was tuning in for the funny
00:24:47.420
how do you do my friends everywhere ladies and gentlemen and boys and girls and children and men
00:24:59.220
and women and people i am professor julius sumner miller and physics is my business and before we go
00:25:07.100
further into these wonderful adventures with nature a word regarding our modus operandi modus operandi
00:25:16.760
on occasion in some of these programs already done and on those i will do further
00:25:24.920
it is clear that i have used some language now and again of an elevated sort words like phrases like
00:25:33.380
modus operandi and such and the impression may be got that this is too much for young ones to hear and
00:25:41.580
understand but i am of the philosophy having been for 60 years in the academic scene
00:25:47.800
that my singular purpose is to make everyone reach and thus their brains are stretched and their
00:25:56.120
emotions moved and their spirit touched so these things that i have done and we are now doing
00:26:03.280
should have virtue for the youngest and the oldest as i am given to say the stuff we do here and we
00:26:11.960
talk about is good for ages 3 to 93 or 2 to 92 or 4 to 94 indeed one-year-olds could enjoy what we are
00:26:22.080
doing so let's do some more of it well julius sumner miller was simply a brilliant professor and great
00:26:27.340
communicator but the granddaddy of the popularizers of science has to go to richard fineman who uh was
00:26:36.820
actually part of the manhattan project he won a nobel prize this guy was probably one of the greatest
00:26:42.700
minds of the last century but in in addition to being a great scientist and fineman said this about
00:26:50.280
experts let me quote it so i get it right he said science is the belief in the ignorance of experts
00:26:58.220
when someone says science teaches such and such he is using the word incorrectly as in he says you must
00:27:06.100
always have doubt you must always welcome criticize criticism that's how we learn
00:27:15.800
it's wrong in that simple statement is the key to science it doesn't make a difference how beautiful
00:27:25.840
your guess is it doesn't make a difference how smart you are who made the guess or what his name is
00:27:30.720
if it disagrees with experiment it's wrong boy i miss the likes of julius sumner miller and richard
00:27:38.260
fineman we sure could use them now in the place of those giants truly great men we have scientific
00:27:45.100
american and ken when i grew up it was a thoughtful magazine that felt pretty sciencey when you were
00:27:50.580
reading scientific american you knew you were in the serious stuff it wasn't i mean sure it popularized
00:27:57.400
science but it was scholarly and rigorous well not so much look at what they've gone and done
00:28:03.280
scientific american has waded into the u.s presidential debate and wouldn't you know it
00:28:09.960
they have endorsed kamala harris and the reasons why while they're most unscientific joining us now to
00:28:17.000
talk about it is our friend mark morano from climate depot.com mark great to see you again
00:28:21.260
yeah good to see you azra thank you mark i don't know if you when you were growing up if you ever
00:28:26.040
encountered some of these science they were sort of lectures they were actually at a high level
00:28:30.700
but they made it so simple that even kids could follow it i loved that i looked up to these men
00:28:36.740
because they were pure reason that is not scientific american in 2024 is it no in fact i think a simple
00:28:44.960
way of saying it would be they used to teach you how to think about science how to view it and how to
00:28:51.440
conduct it now they teach you that you have to follow the science that you can't dissent on the
00:28:57.700
science and of course as part of that for only the second time in their i think 179 year history
00:29:03.940
they are endorsing kamala harris for president because and this is the key reason she quote treats
00:29:11.740
the climate crisis as the emergency it is and of course they contrast her with trump who has said
00:29:18.240
climate change is the hoax according to the magazine so this is this is decades of government
00:29:24.160
funding corruption suppression of speech and the idea that if you disagree with any scientific claim
00:29:32.720
being made on any topic that disagrees with what any government agency whether it be nasa the world
00:29:39.160
health organization or the world meteorological association uh or any government or international body
00:29:46.560
you are by de facto and by definition uh wrong and a misinformer and you should have your ability to
00:29:53.820
express that suppressed so it's in that spirit that scientific american is endorsing kamala harris
00:30:00.640
because they say claim she supports science she doesn't support science she supports mandating
00:30:07.120
one scientific view that is not allowed to be questioned and this is uh just a sad history of this
00:30:14.380
magazine if you go back just another you know 10 years it was just as bad climatologist judith curry who
00:30:21.640
was the darling of the u.n climate science crowd friends with michael mann totally in on the whole
00:30:27.760
global warming agenda after climate gate she started questioning the science what did scientific american do
00:30:33.800
feature article cover article calling her a heretic of science for daring to challenge uh the u.n climate
00:30:41.800
view and of course as a heretic that's the language of what ezra the language of religion no more
00:30:48.860
science yeah you know even the phrase emergency climate emergency that's not a very scientific phrase
00:30:56.780
that suggests a political or moral decision it is time to panic this is really serious that's not
00:31:03.660
science language you know i want to and it it's fake science it's it's politics presenting itself
00:31:10.820
the science it's like when fauci himself said i am the science how dare you question me feinman if he
00:31:16.320
would have seen that would have said that is every scientist must question you that's how we learn
00:31:22.020
and let me just i've got feinman on my mind because i'm nostalgic for the era when we could learn these
00:31:28.700
things and you didn't have to be on your guard when you went to school when you went to a museum
00:31:33.360
when you went to an arch art show that everywhere would be propaganda last time i went to the vancouver
00:31:38.600
aquarium one of the best aquariums and aquariums in canada i just couldn't stand like i loved looking
00:31:44.220
at the critters but i couldn't stand reading any of the plaques it was all propaganda same thing here
00:31:49.460
like i i love going to museums but i can't stand reading their propaganda here's feinman talking about
00:31:55.200
the difference between people who can fake knowledge and people who actually understand something this is
00:31:59.680
a great little clip of feinman talking about do you know the word the name for that bird do you know
00:32:07.720
what that bird is called here watch this wonderful clip this is what a scientist is
00:32:13.220
once all the kids were all walking in little parties with their fathers in the woods
00:32:18.160
then the next monday we were playing in a field and the kid said to me say what's that bird what's
00:32:24.440
the name of you know the name of that bird i says i'm the slightest idea he said well it's a
00:32:28.820
brown-throated thrush he says your father doesn't teach you anything but my father had already taught
00:32:34.000
told me about the names of birds he once we walked in he says that's a brown-throated thrush he says
00:32:39.500
know what's the name of that bird it's a brown-throated thrush in german it's called a
00:32:43.600
fliegenfliegel in chinese it's called a qi-long-tong in japanese and so on and it when you know all the
00:32:52.540
names in every language of that bird you know nothing but absolutely nothing about the bird then we
00:32:58.540
would go on and talk about the pecking and the feathers so i had learned already that names don't
00:33:03.040
constitute knowledge it's annoying the name of something that's caused me a certain trouble since
00:33:09.700
because i refuse to learn the name of anything so when someone comes in and says you got the
00:33:14.320
explanation for the fitz-clonan experiment i says what what what's that he says you know that the
00:33:18.400
long-lived k meson disintegrates into two pies oh oh yes now i know but i never know the names of
00:33:25.060
things what he forgot to tell me was that the knowing the names of things is useful if you want
00:33:29.020
to talk to somebody else so you tell him what you're talking about yeah scientific american doesn't do
00:33:35.380
that kind of critical thinking acid test thinking challenging thinking can i show you something that
00:33:41.180
i that i saw online after this endorsement came out it's someone went through what's called the
00:33:47.260
masthead of scientific american that's a fancy way for saying well who's the editor who's the deputy
00:33:52.620
editor and and they checked well what credentials if any do these people have um and it was john
00:33:59.820
carter phd and he starts off with the editor-in-chief um of the magazine laura helmuth who actually does
00:34:08.360
have a phd we'll give her credit although she is much more of an advocate than a scientist and then
00:34:14.500
they go through pretty much everyone else most of them have no science degrees like for example
00:34:20.120
here's megan bartels senior news reporter doesn't have any scientific training just calls herself
00:34:27.060
a science reporter she's got a master's in journalism that's not science sonya bata the chief audience
00:34:33.580
engagement editor so she's just writing things for clips uh clicks excuse me they have the senior
00:34:41.280
graphics editor jen christensen well it's okay that she doesn't have a science degree i guess
00:34:46.200
anyway um he goes through every single person on the mass set and says folks this ain't a science
00:34:53.020
mag anymore it's a political campaign that speaks in jargon that's what it is and that's exactly what
00:35:00.800
it is in fact you make the same you can make the same argument for what we're seeing to our scientific
00:35:05.160
establishment to what the medical journals have become i mean during covid all they became was
00:35:11.000
consensus enforcement government enforcement and whatever the big pharmaceutical funded by bill
00:35:16.500
gates and others wanted to say so they would if donald trump said anything you know like the
00:35:21.560
the infamous oh use bleach which he never actually said all of that stuff they would turn that into
00:35:28.120
how dare anyone question this don't do your own research you can't question authority you need to
00:35:34.600
actually trade in uh fact finding for emotion and give into this all of this from our medical journals
00:35:42.500
to the scientific journals to the scientific american it's really accelerated since march of 2020 with
00:35:49.340
covid because their whole attitude now is if we decree something and we decree as you said anthony
00:35:55.900
fauci that we are the science and we say there's a climate emergency and we say there's a viral emergency
00:36:01.800
or a pandemic uh or then there's one there's one scenario that they will allow play out everyone's
00:36:09.520
on board no dissent that's what the whole world health organization pandemic rules are about uh the
00:36:15.620
pandemic treaty and the amendments it's all about no one dissenting we all have to be on the same page
00:36:21.620
they don't want another ronda santis in florida they don't want another sweden they're going to make
00:36:25.700
it so this is global have global instant lockdowns global instant vaccine mandates etc
00:36:30.880
and this whole scientific american approach and that's why it's so historic with the few times
00:36:36.420
in their history they've ever endorsed a candidate they're coming out now and they're basically saying
00:36:40.940
this is who you have to because she supports science and right there that should be a reason to be run
00:36:46.780
like hell because supporting science in today's world is like thomas soul the political and economist
00:36:52.920
and philosopher said this sign when you hear the phrase the science it doesn't mean that they're actually
00:36:58.700
going to consult experts and get you know data driven views it means they're consulting experts
00:37:04.080
for political opinions already made and they need that credential to support the decisions they've
00:37:09.580
already made and that's what happened of course during covid that's what's happening during climate
00:37:14.500
and you have the entire the entire world has gone crazy here it's a it's almost a power trip
00:37:22.420
and it's a idea of suppressing any dissent and allowing questioning that's anti-science it's
00:37:28.620
anti-democratic it's anti-free speech but somehow as particularly the last you know eight years it's
00:37:35.380
all become just the norm and it's the most of you know i'm 55 years old it's the most bizarre thing
00:37:41.780
i've ever encountered in my life just how the entire once sane sort of free world has collapsed
00:37:48.740
and been collapsing in the last 10 years with the acceleration of course uh four years ago with the
00:37:54.080
covid you know uh one of the things that i was chafed against during lockdowns was calling the chief
00:37:59.840
medical officer of any jurisdiction the top doctor canada's top doctor america's top doctor and i kept
00:38:07.720
saying top how um most innovative best patient care uh voted the best by their patients like what how would
00:38:17.520
you measure the top doctor and just be authority that's how they manage that's right power being a
00:38:23.520
government doctor doesn't mean you're the top of anything other than you're the top political
00:38:27.120
doctor you probably haven't practiced medicine in years or decades or if ever a lot of public health
00:38:33.380
uh you know a phd in public health that's not an actual medical doctor and and so we were told
00:38:38.820
well this is a top doctor and ignore the doctors who are practicing in the field and what works you
00:38:45.460
know hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin no no no no no the top doctors say don't do that who would you
00:38:52.540
say is the top real scientist of our age i think you know who it is who by any measure i'm not talking
00:39:01.520
about the top scientists i'm talking about like with quotation marks like a government scientist who's
00:39:07.200
the best scientist out there who's the thomas edison or the um nikola tesla of our time
00:39:14.060
well when i look when i think of that i think of the scientists who challenge the establishment so
00:39:19.800
people like in public health jay bodichara uh michael levitt in the climate science world people like
00:39:26.500
richard lindsen john clauser who just won the 2022 nobel prize in physics and actually went to joe biden's
00:39:33.340
face to tell him he disagreed with him on climate and joe biden said you're practicing right wing
00:39:37.540
science excel story i didn't know there was right wing science i thought there was just science yeah
00:39:42.040
that's the office so those are the scientists i look up to the ones who challenge question
00:39:47.400
authority and question and are dissenter because they're the ones who advance science they're the
00:39:53.000
ones who understand the scientific method not the ones who enforce the science coming from government
00:39:58.480
well here's my answer and i thought you were gonna uh say the same thing i would but i respect your
00:40:03.040
answer because i i see your your way of thinking there um it's first of all the answer is not bill gates
00:40:10.120
he's not a scientist at all it and it's absurd how much credit uh credibility he has been endowed by
00:40:17.640
the media he pays um that he's an expert in anything it's quite something i think
00:40:23.380
who is the man who is putting more into space than all other countries combined who is developing
00:40:31.840
neural link uh which would allow people who are quadriplegic to to to move or communicate
00:40:38.760
again who is the person has a a tunneling company called the boring company a satellite company a starlink
00:40:45.440
i mean he's not yeah he's not a pure research scientist but is he a yeah let's say what is
00:40:54.140
his background i never considered him a scientist what i thought more as he i don't know his back
00:40:58.180
is he engineer he calls himself an engineer i'd have to check it out but i would call him maybe a
00:41:02.900
technologist uh he does his companies do develop patents quite often they put them in the public
00:41:09.240
domain such as with his electric cars but i mean what i when i what i like about him
00:41:16.100
is he took over uh twitter and he sacked 80 of the staff he sacked the people who were the
00:41:25.760
dei fake scientists they weren't scientists at all he only kept the guys who know how to do computer
00:41:33.160
stuff he got rid of 80 of the staff and look at this headline here our journalist sarah stock was
00:41:38.940
flying and popped through an airport and she saw this book in the airport bookstore it's called
00:41:44.040
character limit how elon musk destroyed twitter and this is a new york times book in an in a airport
00:41:54.180
bookstore so not everyone gets in that limited space and i'm thinking destroy twitter it's the number
00:42:00.680
one news app in the world it's it's increasingly relevant it's got more um you know functionality
00:42:08.920
than ever as a scientific or technological project it's a great success but it's a political
00:42:15.140
failure according to the new york times i don't know i think they're trying to smother an actual
00:42:21.680
scientist technologist because he's focused on science and technology instead of politics
00:42:26.820
i think you're absolutely right i mean you have you have the reason he can't even have certain
00:42:32.220
high officials of x or twitter in a country like brazil is because they will imprison them
00:42:37.540
because he's violating their censorship requirements elon musk has court cases going he he's basically
00:42:43.980
told the eu censorship committees to f off if i can be so impolite to use that phrase he is the champion
00:42:52.320
not only of that but you're right of science uh and it's amazing his transformation because you had
00:42:58.060
asked me about him 10 years ago i was no fan of him because he was spouting all this climate alarmist
00:43:03.120
nonsense and um but he is really one of the most significant and important people of our age
00:43:09.720
and becoming even more so and depending on how the election goes in the u.s and how these next couple
00:43:15.720
years go in the world you know people like elon musk you know if he gets crushed and his battle gets
00:43:21.880
crushed on the free speech issue we all lose because this is a world that's turning very dark very quickly
00:43:29.240
yeah you know in canada the government just announced a two and a half billion dollar loan to
00:43:34.540
a spacex competitor called telesat yeah by the way they have to rent the rocket ship from elon musk to
00:43:43.060
get anything up there if they want to go elon is a obviously a billionaire i think he's i don't know
00:43:51.420
if he's number one or two or where jeff bezos stands next to it or sometimes arab oil sheiks are up
00:43:57.220
there but if he continues on this he will lose government contracts they will be threatening
00:44:02.960
imprisonment they'll come after him with investigations they'll come after his ally
00:44:06.900
they will do to him what they did to donald trump and i predict in five more years 10 more years he
00:44:12.080
may not even be in the top 10 wealthiest people that's the way the forces of darkness will will try
00:44:17.740
to take him down you know slowly at first and then they're going to come after him as needed and i'm
00:44:23.000
talking they have that ability to do that because so much of his of course initial wealth anyway
00:44:27.740
relies on government cooperation and government corporate collusion if you will you know it's
00:44:32.640
incredible the u.s uh internet scheme 42 billion dollars to connect rural americans hasn't built a
00:44:40.760
single internet connection could have done it all in a fraction of the price with starlink but that's
00:44:45.080
the difference between science the scientific american way and science the get it done elon musk way i don't
00:44:51.820
know it's turning into a fan club here but i see him as an indispensable person i suppose you could
00:44:56.480
say the graveyards are full of indispensable men but elon musk so much rides on him um industrially he's
00:45:03.140
the greatest wealth creator of all time measured by increasing stock market capitalization in terms of how much
00:45:09.640
money he's made for investors he's the greatest um wealth creator of all time in terms of uh technology
00:45:18.020
and just forcing it through i i really think he is the edison and the tesla of our time and it's it's not
00:45:24.460
surprising he chose nikola tesla's name for his car listen we're talking uh we we meant to start talking
00:45:29.980
about scientific american but we wound up talking about a real scientist instead last word to you
00:45:34.600
does anyone actually still read scientific american when i was growing up it was considered quite a
00:45:40.120
prestigious journal along with the magazine nature uh which i think was one degree more uh rigorous
00:45:46.620
uh do people take these magazines seriously anymore is it part of the general discrediting
00:45:51.220
of official you know academia well yeah it's definitely part of that general discredit this
00:45:57.400
it's kind of like time and newsweek what happens is they still exist but they're no longer that
00:46:02.060
mainstream uh impact you know that they used to have so whether it's time magazine whether
00:46:09.040
it's scientific american these are now niche publications for sort of their base and they
00:46:14.600
really don't get beyond that i i know that from talking to all the scientists that i know in an
00:46:19.380
interview though the climate scientists scientific american isn't even in the field of discussion it
00:46:23.820
just doesn't exist uh it's not a peer-reviewed journal as you said it popularizes science but it's
00:46:28.940
all agenda driven and it's all going to go by whatever the government mandated consensus of the science
00:46:35.540
is they're not going to allow dissent as i mentioned they have that they called judith curry a heretic
00:46:40.680
um so this is just the way the world is very similar to the way our media is in many ways there's
00:46:46.940
really no mainstream except maybe twitter x there's no mainstream media that has where everyone coalesces
00:46:52.780
around and watches maybe other than a presidential debate here in the u.s otherwise everything's just
00:46:57.400
all divided up now it's not necessarily a bad thing but it's certainly something like scientific
00:47:02.080
american is pretty much a joke now when it comes to science kind of like bill nye if you can go back
00:47:07.160
to the 90s right actually did a lot of great science presenting told kids with difference between a man
00:47:12.520
and a woman fast forward to the bill nye of today he's telling you that there is no such thing as a
00:47:17.600
difference between a man and woman and anyone can be a woman and what you know so it's just amazing
00:47:21.400
how the science has changed in just a few decades yeah i'll take julius sumner miller any day over
00:47:27.960
over bill nye the science if you got to call yourself the science guy um maybe that's a sign
00:47:34.260
that you aren't it worked when he was actually presenting science that was that wasn't like
00:47:39.880
this back in the 90s he was nothing i could go back i can't find that much of anything offensive
00:47:45.000
about him it's just that he later turned into this the science activist yeah yeah well let me leave
00:47:50.900
with a quick clip from julius sumner miller my childhood physics hero take a quick look and then we'll say
00:47:57.040
goodbye how do you do my friends good evening good day good morning all these are wonderful phrases
00:48:14.660
to awaken the spirit ladies and gentlemen boys and girls and others i am professor julius sumner miller
00:48:22.140
and physics is my business and our business today has not only enchantment but aesthetic abundant so
00:48:31.540
physics you see can be a pretty thing to work with here is a metal plate it happens to be brass it is so
00:48:39.360
big in projected area it is so thick the material has certain mechanical properties it is fixed to a
00:48:47.140
bolt firmly in the middle tightly there and i'm going to hold it by that shaft and bow it
00:48:53.940
well there you have it julius sumner miller and mark morano take care my friend thanks for joining
00:49:05.100
us today thank you appreciate it hey welcome back your letters to me citizen jerry says hi ezra
00:49:19.000
i look forward to watching forsaken warriors even the trailer has a lot to say unfortunately
00:49:24.780
our american military is also being victimized by the same woke agenda i'm hoping that under new
00:49:30.540
leadership both our nations can return to an observation from george orwell we sleep soundly
00:49:36.340
in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who do us harm
00:49:41.740
i'm not sure if that's an orwell quote but it's a good quote anyways you know it's funny you say that
00:49:48.360
because uh stephen harper was prime minister when barack obama was president and those men couldn't be
00:49:55.520
more different and then donald trump was president when justin trudeau was prime minister
00:50:01.240
out of sync in so many ways and i think they hated each other wouldn't it be something if
00:50:08.860
we had pierre polyev as a conservative prime minister at the same time you had donald trump
00:50:14.960
as the u.s president imagine the actual things that could get done between our two countries wouldn't
00:50:22.240
that be great to actually be in sync with the us again blade says i'm an older student i go to a
00:50:29.340
campus with thousands of students mostly gen z i suppose last year i was the only one wearing a
00:50:34.560
poppy on campus i went looking for them on purpose some people might say so what but i think it
00:50:39.620
represents the decline of our country and the disrespect of people who put their life on the
00:50:43.460
line absolutely and and the word deracinate means to pull out by the root to cut off from the roots
00:50:50.740
and and i think if you've forgotten your past you've you've got you've been cut off from your
00:50:58.280
roots from your memory from who you are it's like if someone wakes up with amnesia they might be very
00:51:06.180
bright they might have a wonderful personality but if they don't remember anything about their past
00:51:11.300
they're absolutely lost and frankly anyone could take advantage of them you need to know your past
00:51:18.000
not to be trapped by it but to understand it and to understand the sacrifices that thousands of
00:51:24.580
people before you have done one generation to the next to get you to where you are today we take that
00:51:31.200
for granted and our school system and our cultural institutions tv movies books have all focused on
00:51:38.660
tearing down and canceling not remembering that's our show for today until tomorrow on behalf of all of us
00:51:45.920
here at rubber world headquarters see you at home good night and keep fighting for freedom
