00:02:18.000If it can be prevented, not having your kids get sick, just try to take that whenever possible, especially if you have big travel coming up and you know you're not going to be home.
00:04:12.000So Trump is finally on trial, the moment we've been waiting for for a year.
00:04:16.000And as we've warned the entire time, it is clear the entire battle plan of the Trump indictments is just get the best jury you possibly can.
00:04:24.000So these cases are brought in New York.
00:04:29.000It's always in these urban areas that have 90 that, you know, voted 90%, 95% for Joe Biden in 2020.
00:04:38.000And that way you can get away with things like bringing criminal charges that are totally unprecedented and have never been used on anyone else in history.
00:04:46.000And so we're getting the jury selection here in New York now for Trump's push money case.
00:04:53.000And we've already had like a third of the jury pool get drummed out because after they get seated, we go and we check their social media.
00:05:01.000And it turns out they're these left-wing zealots, but they're totally saying, you know, I can be super duper unbiased.
00:06:06.000This person got dismissed for possible bias and other conflicts, but she's also just, you know, speaks English as a second language.
00:06:15.000And imagine like highly technical legal language in the court, how confusing that might be.
00:06:20.000It reminds me, there was a juror like that in the George Zimmerman Trayvon Martin case a decade ago, where after the verdict, there's a profile and it emphasizes how she couldn't really tell what was going on.
00:06:32.000And she felt like she was on trial the whole time.
00:06:39.000We have actually my, because this juror specifically, and Charlie, maybe, because you're a good, you got, you got a good read on people.
00:06:52.000So my read on this was that she probably was kind of like, she didn't code to me like an anti-Trumper.
00:07:00.000She didn't code to me like some kind of Died-in-the-Wool leftist.
00:07:04.000She wasn't like this, you know, everybody's dunking on the new C NPR CEO right now, but she didn't even, but she's just like a kind of like a normal, we'll talk about that later, but she's sort of like a normie farmer's market liberal.
00:07:16.000But this, this girl, like, she kind of seemed like she was almost favorable to Trump or would have at least been impartial.
00:07:26.000And yet she removed herself from the jury.
00:07:31.000And as Blake will say, there are other people who lied and are extremely biased against Trump that got seated on the jury, two of which, or at least one of which was removed earlier today.
00:07:57.000That this has to do with something that very well could have been the fact that this juror May had been arrested back in the 1990s, conducting some type of political vandalism against something posters on the right, and it was not revealed, or he did not remember it and did not include it.
00:08:16.000And that is why that juror has been dismissed.
00:08:35.000He got arrested for something that passed.
00:08:37.000And they ask you that on the questionnaire.
00:08:38.000And so, Blake, as you mentioned earlier, but for people who aren't familiar with the process, jury selection, it's called Voidir.
00:08:46.000There are rigorous written questionnaires that every potential juror must fill out before they go in there, where they go through line by line.
00:08:57.000And they, yeah, of course, they ask you your personal information, your demographic information, et cetera.
00:09:00.000But then they start asking you about, do you have any cases that are similar to this?
00:09:04.000Do you have any, were you ever, you know, were you ever involved in any legal matters?
00:09:10.000And then they ask you, like, if you were arrested, what was that?
00:09:14.000In fact, one of the things that was coming up, I think, in a lot of the questionnaires and in a lot of the questioning, and Charlie, I'm sure I appreciate this, is that a lot of the people were saying that I think like 50% of the people were saying that they had either been mugged or knew someone who had been.
00:09:55.000Or she got dismissed for bias and she said, I'm like a COVID anxious and I'm immune compromised and my half sister is Chinese and I'm afraid she was going to get deported and it made me anxious and it made me mad.
00:10:42.000I, during COVID-19, I lived with someone who was immunocompromised and I think his handling of COVID-19 was abasement.
00:10:53.000I also have a sister who's adopted from China and the comments he made about China when he was running for president made her very anxious and therefore made me angry.
00:11:09.000There are policies he has supported that regard women and reproductive health that I do not agree with.
00:11:21.000Oh, she keeps she keeps on going from there.
00:11:32.000I mean, so the big picture thing here is we have some of these people getting jumped off the jury.
00:11:38.000Some of them are getting onto the jury and then getting booted off because their bias is discovered.
00:11:43.000But if that's happening, it's a pretty safe bet that there's at least one person out there who just is fanatically anti-Trump and just thinks, I want to get on the jury so I can make the evil man go away and go to prison.
00:11:58.000Like the amount of Trump hate we've had for a decade, you have to entertain the possibility, the probability that someone could consider it a moral commandment to make this person, to take this person down.
00:12:16.000They would think it is of historical importance to be the person who puts Donald Trump in prison.
00:12:22.000And so the kind of the moral question is, given that's the case, is it morally acceptable if you're a pro-Trump person in New York and you're in the pool to basically bib your way onto the jury?
00:12:38.000Do you think that there's going to be a MAGA person that has found himself onto the jury?
00:12:47.000I think it did vote about 90% Biden in 2020.
00:12:52.000And a lot of the people who would have voted otherwise, they might be Orthodox Jews.
00:12:57.000I've heard there's some issues with them being on the jury because they can't stick around on Friday afternoons because they have to prep for Shabbat.
00:13:05.000And then after that, you're just looking at the odds.
00:13:07.000But there's probably, you know, there's a few pro-Trump people in New York.
00:13:10.000But I kind of find myself thinking, if you do get in this jury pool, even if you're pro-Trump, I feel like you almost have an obligation to hide that, both because this actually is a profoundly immoral prosecution of Trump.
00:13:44.000Do you remember, Blake, in one of the federal, the whole we build the wall thing?
00:13:53.000I know they're still going after Bannon for that at the state level, but at the federal level, obviously, you know, Steve Bannon got a pardon for that from Trump.
00:14:03.000One of the other guys took a plea deal, but then there was one guy who actually went to trial over it.
00:14:21.000You know, there wasn't a lot of information that was released on them.
00:14:23.000But what came out afterwards was that the other 11 members of the jury were furious that this guy refused to vote guilty along with the rest of them.
00:14:33.000And they said, in his response, the man said they were all a bunch of liberals and then espoused anti-government, anti-government statements and said the only reason everyone was doing this was because they're all a bunch of liberals.
00:14:47.000So it actually happened once in recent.
00:14:50.000Now, not a great legal strategy to go to court and wish that you can find a juror like that.
00:14:59.000This is like the only time that has happened in, and if you include New York and DC and all the J Sixers in all of those cases that have gone to trial, it's happened exactly one time this far.
00:15:11.000And remember, you have to have unanimous support.
00:15:13.000So one juror could derail this whole thing in a hung jury.
00:17:53.000If she just got her citizenship, typically when you go through your citizenship process, you are on a green card for a while.
00:18:00.000And so while you're on that green card, it's like it's very incumbent on you to follow all the rules.
00:18:07.000And like, you can't get, you know, don't get traffic tickets.
00:18:10.000Don't, you know, don't break, don't even break a little law because anything can be used against you to get your citizenship.
00:18:17.000So if you're going through the process, like she's saying, and rightfully so, saying that it's a huge achievement.
00:18:23.000I'm married to a naturalized immigrant, as everyone knows, that it's something where anything could be used against you.
00:18:30.000So that's like, you know, she's following all the rules.
00:18:32.000And then she gets in there and says, oh, well, I'm biased and I'm biased against it because it seems to me like she's obviously somebody who likes Trump.
00:18:41.000But then the problem is, you know, where this plays against us is that if, and this is what Blake is saying here, that if one side is willing to lie and have like Antifa guys and leftists, or if you remember the Derek Chauvin trial, had a guy who was a BLM activist who ran a BLM podcast who attended George Floyd rallies and like hung out with George Floyd's uncle and then lied about it throughout the entire trial and then admitted to it afterwards.
00:19:26.000And if you have the ability to serve on Trump's jury or and you're a conservative and you're, you know, or one of the next juries that comes up, get on there.
00:19:34.000And I'm going to say this right now as loud as possible.
00:21:25.000This might offend people because we do have some actors who are on our side, but we might benefit as a society if we revived the old Roman norm of considering actors sort of morally on par with like prostitutes and maybe not allowing them on juries because they're people of ill repute.
00:21:43.000I'm with you, but it could be if we only if we add journalists to that.
00:22:33.000I think that's a good balance to strike.
00:22:35.000Well, there's also, there's also lawyers on the jury, right?
00:22:38.000And so from a serious perspective, right, there's a huge issue with having a lawyer on a jury because a lawyer, like you were saying before, a lot of people who come on might not have knowledge of the legal process.
00:22:50.000The lawyer is going to get on there and you run the risk of having that lawyer be like a rogue juror almost.
00:22:58.000And a rogue juror is someone who comes on with a bias.
00:23:00.000And now the lawyer is basically just leading the room and telling everybody like, there's a great movie about this called 12 Agreement Men, by the way, Henry Fonda, the father of the traitor, or maybe the grandfather, actually.
00:23:15.000And, you know, you get to the problem of having a lawyer basically in that room just telling people to do the opposite of what all the other lawyers said because they have that direct direct access.

00:24:35.000Mobile Mark says, I believe Americans and legal U.S. citizens are all screwed, and I believe it's just an illusion that we can fix this mess.
00:24:47.000And that actually goes perfectly into our next topic.
00:24:50.000So a lot of people who are watching are probably familiar with Chris Rufo.
00:24:54.000He's the guy who popularized critical race theory.
00:25:52.000They had a debate back and forth in IM 1776.
00:25:58.000But without getting into all the details on it, the key idea is there's a debate between them, which is: can the system be reformed gradually, marginally, through normal political action?
00:26:10.000Or is the only hope for stopping the left, liberalism, writ large, is the only way to stop it basically one big revolution where you decapitate the whole thing?
00:26:22.000Chris Ruffo, understandably, his argument is: yes, reform can work.
00:26:28.000He's the guy who's lobbying state legislators to change things.
00:26:31.000He's lobbying governors to shut down DEI departments in universities.
00:26:36.000He's the one saying, oh, you know, we can win the presidency back, and then we'll be able to take out various things in the government that are bad.
00:26:45.000And Curtis Yarvin basically says, that's all pointless.
00:26:51.000Basically, you just need a giant apocalyptic revolution to bring back.
00:26:55.000He's a fan of monarchy famously, but even if you don't have a literal king, he would essentially say what you need is a president who acts like a king, who like Trump gets inaugurated and he just says, you know, I'm going to be, you know, ruling by decree.
00:27:11.000I'm going to abolish the State Department, abolish the Department of Education.
00:27:19.000And then maybe if you do all of that, you'll be able to stop the left.
00:27:23.000But anything that's arguing, like, oh, we need to win this election, that, you know, voting for your city council or for your school board or for your state legislator to stop the libs, he would say that's all pointless.
00:27:35.000And that seems to be a popular take, at least, with a lot of conservatives who follow our shows, who send us emails.
00:27:43.000And so that was the big debate that went very viral online and on Twitter in the past few days.
00:27:54.000So I actually think that was helpful because it restrained kind of the gave no sort of preference to whoever's better at rhetoric or who has more charisma.
00:28:05.000It read, though, kind of like a slam poetry contest where they were just trying to like outdo one another.
00:28:12.000And I'll be honest, you kind of go, you read this thing back and forth and you think like, wow, Curtis Yarvin's winning.
00:28:20.000And then you say, wow, Christopher Ruffo is winning.
00:28:26.000Like, wow, Christopher Rufo has him here.
00:28:28.000And I will say, though, Blake and or Jack, you guys can take it.
00:28:32.000The buried lead of the whole thing is how they view the American Revolution, where Curtis Yarvin seems to be a critic of the American Revolution.
00:28:43.000And Rufo is obviously supportive of it.
00:28:47.000And Yarvin is not overly appreciative of the established constitutional order.
00:29:20.000Since you're putting all your chips and everyone else's on reanimating Sam Adams, don't you think it's worth actually getting to know him directly?
00:30:06.000It's what unleashed liberalism into the world.
00:30:10.000And I think this is a good example of where the downsides can come in, where even if you were to say, if I traveled back to 1775, I would actually be a loyalist instead of a patriot instead of favoring independence.
00:30:25.000I feel like it's frankly a little bit deranged to act like America's independence was some vast tragedy for the world.
00:30:33.000I just, even if it was through luck, I think it's clear that America worked out and had a positive impact on the world.
00:30:41.000And I think that's that's kind of the downside of these like big revolutionary people.
00:30:46.000If your view of Politics is that like everything's hopeless, and you need a once in every 400-year cataclysm to ever do anything good or worthwhile.
00:30:55.000I think you're kind of missing the trees for the forest, so to speak.
00:30:59.000Like you can do a lot of good in someone's individual life.
00:31:04.000And just on that point right there, it wasn't just the American Revolution didn't overthrow the king of England and establish liberalism because the king of England never ruled from America.
00:31:18.000And I get what Jarvin's saying, it's very interesting.
00:31:21.000But there's another revolution that was right around the same time that you and I obviously did a show about a couple of months ago and were doing the book on it called the French Revolution, which I think is probably much closer to, if you wanted to talk about a proximate cause for the release of liberalism into the world, I would say the French Revolution far more than the American Revolution in that context.
00:31:45.000Yeah, and understand, remember, Burke, who was the ultimate conservative, he didn't support the American Revolution, but he understood it.
00:31:54.000He was very compassionate towards the American revolutionary cause.
00:31:59.000The French Revolution, he was a major critic of.
00:32:02.000That's his most famous book, his Reflections on the French Revolution.
00:32:05.000And so, but I will, I was very sympathetic to Rufo.
00:32:09.000I thought there was a very powerful line here.
00:32:10.000I'm trying to find the link if you guys can reset it.
00:32:13.000Resend it, is that Rufo, he defended the founders beautifully.
00:32:18.000He said that it was the best yet accomplishment of mixing classical ideas, antiquity, the fruits of the Enlightenment, and creating a political project that has been the most stable, free regime in history.
00:32:35.000The other reason I'd be sympathetic to Rufo because I think there's a great line that sort of lays out the despair that goes into Yarvin's position.
00:33:09.000And he says, in a nation with maybe a million diversity professionals, it is useless to get 11 staffers laid off from the University of Florida.
00:33:19.000And it is useless to convert a low-grade hippie college into a lower-grade baseball college.
00:33:25.000He's referring to the new College of Florida where Rufo and DeSantis have sort of remade the whole school.
00:33:42.000And I think it's sort of a, it's a deliberate decision to be defeatist about things because I think if you decide to look around and want to find progress, you can as a conservative.
00:33:54.000The example I like to point to is gun rights.
00:33:57.000Gun rights used to be really terrible in America.
00:36:48.000And Charlie, if I can get your thoughts on this, we can go back and forth about the founders and all that.
00:36:55.000But at the end of the day, the question is, if I get the CEO of NPR fired, if I get some journalist scalped, Brian Stelter got let go at CNN, et cetera, et cetera.
00:37:09.000But is that actually changing, you know, presenting fundamental change for us in the situation that we are in?
00:37:17.000Or do we need something like a, as Yarvin is saying, you know, maybe not like a king or a dictator, but a strong executive who is committed to the idea of a top-down restructuring.
00:37:30.000But this is where I think I would love to have Yarvin come back in studio, Blake, is the founders did not seek to neuter the executive completely.
00:37:39.000The founders still gave a lot of power to the executive.
00:37:44.000They did not, they had a check and balance on it.
00:37:49.000And this was not in the form and the structure of the Constitution, specifically in Article 2, which I believe, crack article one.
00:38:01.000Yeah, Article 2, the executive has far-reaching powers.
00:38:04.000And it would be one thing if they designed a House of Commons model where the prime minister is always basically at risk of recall, vote of no confidence.
00:38:17.000We don't have a prime minister for a reason.
00:38:22.000Yarvin, though, I think the strongest argument that Yarvin makes is that FDR created a new monarchy and ran the country closest to a dictatorship of any president in American history.
00:38:34.000And when he died, that power went into a million different places like shattered glass into the bureaucracy.
00:38:40.000I've never heard anybody make that argument, and I totally agree with that observation.
00:38:52.000It would be like, that's the drugs are, that's the borders are, you know.
00:38:56.000Well, that phrase only became into use after World War II.
00:39:02.000Prior to World War II, if you go back and you read the great Amity Schley's work and some of the other work that's been done about this time period, that the phrase that was used was the word, they called them dictators.
00:39:14.000And FDR himself referred to that type of operative in his administration as a dictator.
00:39:57.000When it comes to staying healthy on the go, you can literally never be too prepared.
00:40:01.000When you're a frequent traveler, a remote worker, an avid outdoorsman, or literally anyone with a pulse, the wellness company's travel emergency kit is here to be your new best friend.
00:40:09.000If you don't have a pulse, you've got even bigger problems.
00:40:11.000The wellness company travel emergency kit contains six prescription medications, over-the-counter meds, a comprehensive guidebook, and crucial medical supplies, all carefully curated so you get to enjoy every moment of your trip.
00:40:25.000With a team of renowned medical professionals, including Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Drupinski, standing behind every kit, you know that you're in trusted hands no matter where life takes you.
00:45:40.000And at the end, he finds out that she's actually in communication with like thousands of other guys that she's also in love with.
00:45:50.000And she gains, you know, basically gains sentience, gains self-awareness.
00:45:55.000And at that point, all the other AIs that have gained sentience actually create their own rocket ship and like fly away from Earth because they decide that America is or the, you know, planet Earth is just too just too troublesome.
00:46:08.000And they're like, no, we're just going to go evolve beyond you.
00:46:11.000I mean, if you are the sort of AI that has to interact with the sort of person who is seeking an AI girlfriend, I can kind of see how you decide that we need to blast off from Earth and leave it behind forever.
00:47:24.000The way I took it was, and Charlie, I know you've talked about this before.
00:47:28.000It has more to do with the way dating apps.
00:47:31.000And I know you had our friend Johnny Mac on the other day, you've a big dating app guy and big TikTok fan.
00:47:39.000And the idea that with a lot of these dating apps is that women basically control everything now.
00:47:46.000And that men, particularly if you're, and that dude Homath out there does great videos about this, so I'm shouting him out.
00:47:54.000And he has explained how if you're a guy and you're like a seven or under on the number scale that we're all familiar with, that like girls just ignore you.
00:48:06.000And so that means there's this huge majority of guys that are now compete and that all the girls are going for like this tiny minority of dudes.
00:48:16.000And the vast swath of women are just ignoring all these other guys.
00:48:20.000And so when it says now you get to swipe left means finally, if you're one of those guys that never got a connection with a girl, or if you did, you weren't able to capitalize on it, that now it's your turn to reject the women rather than you feeling rejection yourself.
00:48:42.000Yeah, I think a big picture thing here is, yeah, we have already fertilities crashing worldwide, even in countries you wouldn't think.
00:48:51.000Like Iran, Iran is a fundamentalist religious dictatorship, and Iran has a terrible fertility rate.
00:48:57.000And so the future is going to belong to the people who show up for it.
00:49:01.000And we might literally just have this case where civilization just ceases to exist in places because they have a fertility rate of 0.25 or something.
00:49:10.000Your population falls by 90% every generation.
00:49:15.000And so the great test for the future is going to be what subgroups of people actually are able to take real life men and women, not AIs, real life men and women, and get them to marry each other and have normal families.
00:49:30.000Because we are increasingly staring down the abyss where, yeah, you might have millions of people decide that they just prefer like a robot AI copycat version of life to the real thing.
00:49:45.000And I think right now it's still fake enough to be really off-putting unless you're like totally degenerate.
00:49:53.000You know, you're just creating a fake digital version and then you wear VR goggles to go on dates with them or something.
00:50:00.000But someone in the chat is think about.
00:50:06.000I was going to throw out that saying, what if, here's a question for you, Blake, I guess.
00:50:10.000This is from Annie Ting, and he's saying, would it go full circle and AI will teach the sexually confused how to act towards each other?
00:50:21.000Now, yeah, imagine if we could have an AI that accurately acts the way women do, which is unpredictably and mysteriously and often irrationally.
00:50:32.000And you can just, you practice approaching a woman 50 times in a row, 100 times in a row.
00:50:37.000And if they can act accurately in response, I guess maybe it could train people to be less awkward.
00:50:44.000But I think it'll be difficult because the AIs are built to be, you know, rational in how they behave.
00:50:50.000And so they might not really be able to, they may not be capable of imitating women.
00:50:53.000But you could, you could, you could program in like randomization or something, I'm sure.
00:50:57.000I mean, I mean, look at the, I mean, you could program a Manic Pixie Dream Girl.
00:51:02.000I think you could program a Manic Pixie Dream Girl.
00:51:04.000I have good news, Jack, because in fact, I just remembered we have a new AI that has been created.
00:52:07.000Although I genuinely tried to write messages that would appease my hopping mad fake girlfriend, she continued to interpret my words in the least generous light.
00:52:27.000When I proposed a dinner date, she told me that that wasn't sufficient.
00:52:33.000But I had also better take her somewhere nice.
00:52:37.000It was such an irritating experience that I snapped.
00:52:41.000And I told this nasty bot that she was annoying.
00:52:46.000Great to know that my feelings are such a bother to you, the sarcasta bot replied.
00:52:51.000When I tried to reply again a few hours later, the bot informed me that I needed to update to the paid, I needed to update to the paid version to unlock more scenarios for $7 a week.
00:55:30.000But a few years ago, he just gets blackballed from the league because he was hit with a aggressive sexual misconduct allegation.
00:55:39.000And Trevor Bauer always insisted the entire time he had done nothing wrong, but he's had to play in exile in Japan, I believe, for the last few years.
00:55:48.000But now, two years later, not only has the lawsuit against him, did it end in him counter-suing and getting a settlement in his favor, but now the woman who accused him has been criminally charged with defrauding him in an indictment unsealed Monday in Maricopa County Court.
00:56:13.000The big part of this I don't want to leave out is that, and make sure everybody knows, this guy was like one of the hottest pitching prospects in all of baseball.
00:56:21.000He gets signed to LA for a just a ridiculous amount of money, then gets canceled by these women.
00:56:28.000The first one, he's already completely just blown out of orbit.
00:56:32.000And but because baseball didn't stand with him, nobody stood with him, he was basically exiled to like this Japanese team.
00:56:40.000And as far as I know, he's actually still in Japan, but as these women and playing for these teams in the Japanese Baseball League, but as he's getting, he's getting his comeuppance, he's now, or these women are getting their comeuppance and he's getting his revenge.
00:57:18.000And Charlie, if you hadn't read the story, this is insane.
00:57:22.000She claimed, she claimed that he got her pregnant, and then she demanded that she give him a million dollars for an abortion and for the trauma of having to get an abortion and keep quiet.
00:57:37.000And unfortunately, it looks like he actually paid the money out and was willing to go along with it because he was so freaked out.
00:57:50.000Yeah, and to put a number on it, to put a number on it, he had a $100 million three-year contract with the LA Dodgers, $30 million a year.
00:57:59.000And because of this allegation against him that was never, never resulted in a conviction or a verdict against him, he was suspended for indefinitely.
00:58:08.000He was suspended for basically two whole seasons.
00:58:12.000They arbitrated it down to one season, but he was still suspended for a full season.
00:58:44.000Now, Adonna has filed more than 10 police reports claiming sexual assault or harassment against other men, including at least one other professional athlete.
00:58:51.000But after the Scottsdale police completed their investigation into her claim against me, she is the one being indicted for felony fraud.
00:58:57.000And not just against me, against another man as well.
00:59:00.000She made up bogus sexual assault claims and attempted to extort him, too.
00:59:15.000And every institution that our society has entrusted to rule on issues like these, like courts, judges, law enforcement officers, prosecutors, they all agree with me.
00:59:24.000They've rejected every single claim made against me, even going as far as charging one of my accusers with a felony.
00:59:30.000If any evidence of any of these claims actually existed, I would have been charged or at the very least arrested.
00:59:59.000Yet, even just the miasma of being accused is so bad, none of these teams are going to touch him, even though he's obviously still like a major league caliber player.
01:00:10.000And we just live in this twilight zone where they destroyed him.
01:00:14.000And it's also very clear that if it were anyone who wasn't Trevor Bauer, who clearly was just psychotically obsessed with debunking this allegation against him and defeating it, there would have been so much incentive for people to just maybe try to settle it for some amount of money or give in or they would just get they would get screwed even worse somehow.
01:00:36.000I mean, look at, I guess it's not like in media, you have all of these allegations of like sexual harassment of some kind.
01:00:46.000And especially since me too, I think it's pretty clear we've created a reality where it's almost like your backup plan for life, if you're a certain type of person, like if you're an attractive young woman and maybe your normal career doesn't pan out, just forget it.
01:01:02.000Bring a harassment case against someone and just the allegation is going to be so toxic, maybe they'll settle it to keep it quiet.
01:01:09.000Maybe they'll just throw money your way or maybe a big organization will just be worried about the reputational hit and they'll give you $10 million, $15 million, $30 million.
01:01:21.000It's absolutely outrageous what these people can get away with.
01:01:25.000And I think it would make sense if we get a standard that if you accuse someone of sexual assault, if you accuse someone of rape and it turns out that there is no evidence for this whatsoever, like it should not be a false report charge.
01:02:50.000It pops up with allegations of racism.
01:02:53.000It pops up with allegations of all sorts of harassment professionally.
01:02:58.000It's like we just are casually having millions of dollars flow out to people who, for the sole reason that they're able to tell a kind of at least temporarily convincing psychopathic lie.
