00:00:00.000 on this vote the yeas are 50 the nays are 50 the senate being evenly divided the vice president
00:00:09.880 votes in the affirmative the bill as amended is passed hello everybody and welcome to the
00:00:17.060 great america show it's a big beautiful day in america just yesterday we sat here at the same
00:00:21.700 time and there was a little speculation a little nerves that the big beautiful bill might not get
00:00:27.900 passed because of a few people in the senate well through the night and early on this morning
00:00:34.280 some of the rhinos in the senate were able to put their differences aside and that's namely
00:00:40.340 lisa murkowski uh who would have been a um a breaker for the bill should she have voted no 0.84
00:00:47.500 um obviously passing around 12 o'clock this afternoon uh rhino uh susan collins of maine
00:00:54.800 voting no uh rhino tom tillis who will be departing the senate in 2026 voting no and ran paul for
00:01:01.200 whatever personal reasons uh he had with the bill um every other republican following the line
00:01:07.580 getting this thing passed for america getting this thing passed for donald trump getting this thing
00:01:12.920 passed for america first because they overwhelmingly voted for donald trump this is donald trump's bill
00:01:17.700 as i say every day not perfect uh but i think the best thing you're going to get
00:01:22.640 given what you have uh in the house and the senate you look at how much trouble this bill
00:01:28.260 went through getting passed getting put through with not as much cuts that should have been in it can
00:01:35.220 you imagine if they have cut more by the way we have some news to break through you uh this evening
00:01:39.860 usa id has officially ceased operations in the u.s government another massive win for the trump
00:01:46.320 administration so this thing's able to get through uh by the skin of its teeth elon musk is back
00:01:52.460 in meltdown mode again last night he tweeted out anyone who supports this bill uh as soon as it
00:01:58.340 passes he is going to begin the primary process against these people so elon's got quite a task
00:02:04.480 ahead of him if he is indeed a man of his word he's got quite a few people to take on by my math there's
00:02:10.720 only three republicans he's not going after in the senate well two of them because one of them is
00:02:16.460 retiring tom tillis so susan collins and ran paul i guess are marked safe from elon musk but the man is on a
00:02:22.220 suicide mission and i'm not entirely sure what it's all about uh we're going to be joined shortly
00:02:28.060 by our guest say mark morano of climate depot.com uh terrific guest we have him on here very often
00:02:34.320 to talk about the electric vehicle mandate the green news scam that apparently elon musk is losing
00:02:40.700 his mind over losing his mind losing his friendship with donald trump over this whole entire thing and
00:02:47.200 what i've been saying here is elon musk knew that donald trump was not renewing any green new scam
00:02:53.600 any electrical vehicle mandates any charge station mandates he knew before he endorsed him that he was
00:02:59.660 not endorsing any of these policies green this green that electric this electric that elon knew that
00:03:06.560 but he still went out there spent all this money to campaign for donald trump now i don't know what it
00:03:12.500 was for was it for maybe he thought he was going to buy donald trump he should know that donald trump 0.97
00:03:19.160 is not for sale he should have known that before elon is not a stupid man although he's acting very 0.96
00:03:24.760 stupid of late and he's sort of self-imploding tesla shares down about 14 bucks today um at the close 0.98
00:03:33.460 just because of the exchange between elon and president trump now elon of course always going low 1.00
00:03:39.100 and donald trump taking the high road he was asked this afternoon before departing and we're going
00:03:44.460 to get into where donald trump went today sort of an interesting victory uh lap but uh he was asked
00:03:50.780 before he left if elon should be deported take a listen the rest we got a lot of hostages back
00:03:57.160 i don't know we might have to put doge on elon you know you know doge is doge is the monster that
00:04:12.700 have that might have to go back and eat elon wouldn't that be terrible he gets a lot of subsidies
00:04:18.100 peter but uh elon's very upset that the ev mandate is going to be terminated and you know what when you
00:04:25.900 look at it who wants not everybody wants an electric car i don't want an electric car i want
00:04:31.700 to have baby gasoline maybe electric maybe a hybrid maybe someday a hydrogen if you have a hydrogen car
00:04:38.760 it has one problem if it blows up you know so i'm gonna give that one to peter
00:04:43.080 so donald trump leaving the door open uh for whatever elon musk wants to get himself into him
00:04:53.280 like i said he's on in my opinion a suicide mission he is uh you know the chairman of tesla
00:04:59.920 or whatever but he still has a board to report to he still has shareholder equity responsibilities
00:05:05.200 so for him to be out here tweeting very irresponsibly like that i don't think it's the
00:05:11.320 best route for him i don't think it's the best route for his company he's going to do a great deal
00:05:16.920 of harm on himself so he's not for this bill we get it he's going after every republican now we get
00:05:22.620 it he's not getting his electrical vehicle mandates that we know and now donald trump may start looking
00:05:28.060 at some of elon's other government subsidies for spacex and so on and so forth than every one of his
00:05:33.500 other companies so elon's continuing to inflict harm on himself for whatever reason uh president trump
00:05:40.560 touting just after this bill passed what it means for border security and what it means for us the
00:05:45.540 american people in total the average illegal alien costs american taxpayers an estimated seventy
00:05:51.860 thousand dollars that's each seventy thousand dollars i think that number is even low if you
00:05:57.960 care about balancing the budget the single most impactful step we can take is to fully reverse the
00:06:04.740 biden migration invasion one of the worst invasions we've ever had we've never had an invasion like 1.00
00:06:11.540 this we've had invasions but we've taken care of them we've never had invasion like this and it's
00:06:16.560 with us and we have some very bad people out there looking to do big harm that's why the one big
00:06:22.780 beautiful bill includes funding for three thousand new border patrol officers and ten thousand new ice
00:06:29.320 agents and i've gotten to know the border patrol and ice very well unlike kamala she was the border 0.78
00:06:34.980 czar but she never saw the border she never made one phone call she was some border czar she would
00:06:40.060 have been some president probably would have been slightly better than biden though
00:06:44.480 as brilliant as can be um so it's unclear to me and i think a lot of people why elon is so against
00:06:54.860 this bill it really uh doesn't make much sense uh he should be for all the things and we're going to
00:07:00.640 get it all into it in just a few moments when we're joined by our guest as i said mark morano of
00:07:05.240 climate depot.com is going to be joining us in just a few moments because i want to get his take
00:07:09.220 on what is uh up elon's rear end and what he really thought he was getting out of donald trump
00:07:15.880 where did he think donald trump was going the man ran for the last whatever it was two years
00:07:22.500 plus his first term that he wants the green news scam gone he wants his electrical vehicles
00:07:28.720 gone as for the subsidies if you want to buy them that's fine and he said this multiple times
00:07:34.760 you heard him just say it earlier this morning if you want to drive an electric car that's fine
00:07:39.080 you want to drive a gas car that's great you want to drive a hybrid that's great but don't shove it
00:07:43.180 down our throat and tell us this is what you have to do and that's what elon wanted so we're going to
00:07:49.220 get his take on that in just a few moments so you're wondering where was donald trump this afternoon
00:07:53.120 and why was he with governor ron de santis well about five days ago governor de santis sent his
00:07:58.200 people down in florida uh constructed yes i said five days ago constructed a um a prison type setup
00:08:06.720 called alligator alcatraz where they'll be homing uh illegal immigrants who come to this country are 1.00
00:08:13.540 waiting for deportation in five days they built this thing alligator alcatraz take a listen to
00:08:20.140 president trump just earlier this morning before departing
00:08:22.660 i guess that's the concept this is not a nice visit i guess that's the concept if you
00:08:36.280 you know uh snakes are fast but alligators we're going to teach them how to run away from an alligator 0.99
00:08:43.920 okay if they escape prison how to run away don't run in a straight line run like this and you know
00:08:50.480 what your chances go up about one percent okay not a good thing it's so brilliant so if you escape the
00:09:00.680 prison you've got to run from the gators or the boa constrictors uh or as we saw in some of the videos
00:09:06.480 today uh some of those mosquitoes out there it's literally in the everglades those you haven't been
00:09:11.320 there uh you wouldn't understand those of you live in florida who have been to florida have been to the
00:09:16.680 everglades you guys truly understand uh for those of you who haven't been the whole uh south probably
00:09:23.520 100 miles south of orlando it starts i would guess down to about the miami homestead area the middle
00:09:30.060 of the state is just absolute swamplands filled with gators and and boas and every single walk of
00:09:37.520 life that you wouldn't want to be caught dead walking around so if you decide you want to break
00:09:42.240 out of the detention center which by the way uh the detention centers they've built down in alligator
00:09:46.760 alcatraz are some nicer than some of the prisons that we have here housing some of the american people 0.95
00:09:51.700 i must say uh with the beds and the accommodations but if you break out it's going to be a long run if
00:09:58.220 you can make it um as it was if you broke out of alcatraz folks we're going to take a quick break
00:10:03.280 as promised on the other side of this break we're going to be joined by my friend and founder ceo of
00:10:08.440 climate depot.com mark morano i want to get a sense on what is going on and why is elon musk
00:10:15.300 constantly melting down stay with us we're coming right back
00:10:18.400 thanks for staying with us folks and now as promised our guest today is the founder of
00:10:28.560 climate depot.com mark morano mark it's been a while but uh there's no better time i think to
00:10:33.580 have you on right now there's so much to talk about but let's get started with first just the
00:10:38.800 overall broad spectrum of the big beautiful bill that just passed that elon and these people are
00:10:45.300 against the white house putting out a one sheet and this is how things should be done a one sheet or
00:10:51.260 mark on all the accomplishments that it lays out so some of the bigger things bigger paychecks of
00:10:56.920 ten thousand dollars or more an annual take home for families no tax on tips no tax on overtimes no
00:11:01.760 tax on social security no tax on made in america auto loans protects two million families and farms
00:11:07.400 punitive double taxation permanent increases to the tax credit supporting over 40 million families
00:11:13.500 a vote against this bill was the largest tax increase in history it rescinds the billions and
00:11:19.140 billions of dollars in the green news scam funding we'll stop right there because there's so many more to
00:11:23.600 go into but i want to get your take on overall this thing finally passing well it's a couple
00:11:30.480 different things i mean first of all it's an achievement barely passed you know you need to
00:11:34.540 bring in jd vance to cast the tiebreaker uh and so what happens here is you can go through all that
00:11:41.300 list it's great you can go that other people can go through and point out all the bad stuff when you
00:11:45.140 have a mega bill like this which is in a sense it defines everything that's wrong with washington
00:11:52.160 because you can't get your congressmen and senators on record as to what they support what they don't
00:11:56.640 support it also feeds those campaign ads you can already see them coming where he voted for this
00:12:02.840 he voted against that you know whatever um overall let me start with my area of special interest which
00:12:10.700 is climate energy environment it's it's it's a pretty good bill in terms of repealing the ira i say
00:12:17.380 pretty good as we're doing this interview we're only a couple hours out and we're still getting new
00:12:21.740 revelations and digging deep um the i i guess naively if you had asked me last fall i said we
00:12:29.780 got to repeal the entire inflation reduction the problem is you get into the legality of it if a
00:12:35.040 project i think it's five percent started and it's been funded and you've got permits you're not allowed
00:12:40.920 to reverse it if you try to reverse it then they can take you to court then you can drag this out
00:12:44.880 so it's very complicated so that's why you have estimates from 40 to 60 percent of the inflation
00:12:51.220 reduction act only being repealed particularly on climate energy uh again those numbers aren't final
00:12:57.100 but the most disturbing element of the just in the last couple hours is there's an analysis saying the
00:13:02.920 senate bill has failed to terminate the green new deal and it's a solar and wind lobbyist dream and
00:13:10.240 they're saying because the solar subsidies now and wind subsidies aren't slayed in the current version
00:13:16.020 remember this has to go to it's just it's a inside washington this has to go in reconciliation now
00:13:20.560 with the house but currently donald trump will be 94 years old when they actually end solar and wind
00:13:26.160 subsidies which is the definition of terminating the green new scam and unfortunately this current
00:13:32.240 version passed by the senate allows this till donald trump's long out of office which is another way
00:13:37.340 of saying they didn't get what they wanted and they're unlikely to have another vote next year unless
00:13:41.560 you never know donald trump's got the biggest war chest of any president lame duck or otherwise
00:13:47.840 uh going into the midterms which i guess he can help so you never know what could happen imagine if
00:13:52.700 they had a big shot in the midterms and you could reinvigorate it'd be like trump's first year all over
00:13:58.540 again next year that would be unprecedented uh if that were to happen and it's on the table i listened
00:14:03.360 to a lot of progressives saying that they've never seen a weaker democratic party with more hollowed out
00:14:09.480 leadership like hakeem jeffries and uh chuck schumer uh there's a lot of democrat operatives who are
00:14:16.360 just terrified that a year that they should historically win they may take a huge bath but
00:14:22.560 so so politically it's a big win for trump it's still pretty good on my issues uh and there's some
00:14:30.120 problems and hopefully we can work these out and as the house and senate work together to smooth out a
00:14:34.900 final pass final bill and other than that you know i do respect the rand paul's and the thomas massey's
00:14:42.060 for their no votes i don't respect the susan collins they have different reasons but i do respect the
00:14:46.940 idea of these big mega bills in washington are just you know they need to find a way to end this and
00:14:52.440 break these into manageable ways there's no way anyone could have read this bill there's no way you
00:14:55.680 would even know what's in it and it's gotten worse just the last you know 10 years have been just
00:15:00.720 horrendously bad with that trend in congress ultimately i think any stumbles donald trump
00:15:06.580 is having or going to have is going to come from the house and senate even though they're in republican
00:15:11.540 leadership by the way just going back to the rand paul and the massey thing people who don't who's
00:15:17.400 you've worked in dc mark i unfortunately don't tell many people this this is just between you and i
00:15:22.920 spent some time working in dc um the thing that people don't realize is there's always deals to be
00:15:29.200 made so if there was at any point uh some sort of uh doubt that they maybe were going to lose
00:15:36.040 another vote thune would have called in collins thune would have called in rand paul and said
00:15:40.520 listen what do you want you got to do us his favor so uh the reason why rand paul will get a pass on
00:15:46.280 this and why donald trump has been quiet and not absolutely obliterating is because he had said to
00:15:50.980 him okay you know this is your pass on this bill but you better be there for this one or this one or this
00:15:55.240 one that's just how the senate works so you know it appears now that uh we were all on our tippy
00:16:01.040 toes but this thing was probably going to pass the whole entire time yeah it's like if you remember
00:16:05.680 uh i guess the well you probably don't remember it was inside baseball but it was 2010 2009 when they
00:16:14.780 passed they're trying to pass obama's um cap and trade it did pass the house never passed the senate
00:16:21.060 but they literally pelosi at the time the newly minted house speaker she literally just had vote 1.00
00:16:25.920 after vote after vote and after each vote that it failed they just kept buying off more congressmen
00:16:31.120 and exactly what you're saying the horse trading and the giving them the pork and it works it's the
00:16:35.820 most tried and tested successful method to get any bill passed in washington well that was what they
00:16:41.500 did with murkowski murkowski was a no yes and then they told her okay you we gave you 25 billion
00:16:46.520 dollars for rural hospitals in alaska uh here's another 25 and how does she get out of that with
00:16:51.960 the constituents who weren't a fan of this well she said at any point that uh i find that this bill
00:16:57.020 helps the people of alaska i'm all in on it but now it goes over to the house where you've got guys like
00:17:01.900 chip roy are going to say well i don't want 50 billion dollars for alaska hospitals and you say oh
00:17:06.900 all right chip what the hell do you want man and and this is you're absolutely it's it's literally 0.89
00:17:12.160 horse trading at its finest yes these guys grab them by the cojones and they say and they squeeze 0.92
00:17:17.760 them and and this is how politics is done in washington and it's you're absolutely right it's
00:17:22.560 because of these big massive bills that they're able to do it if you were able to pass single
00:17:28.100 subject one line two line three line obviously i'm being facetious but you know a single page bill
00:17:34.600 that looks like this mark you wouldn't be doing any of that horse trade and you wouldn't know how to
00:17:38.840 make any backroom deals why can't they get to that there's a lot of reasons but i mean it's just
00:17:45.660 the whole the whole fundraising the whole thing is almost unreformable i don't have an answer for you
00:17:51.520 on that that's for i don't i don't know there's you really do have to drain the swamp i don't know
00:17:56.060 how you're ever going to fix congress i just i don't know and then you have people like the john
00:18:00.580 thune um he made all this stuff about the parliamentarian he could have appointed his own
00:18:06.720 parliamentarian to this they tried to blame stuff he was at a uh a big oil event that was a big energy
00:18:14.760 event corporate energy and they were and they were they shill for carbon capture sequestration these
00:18:20.660 these groups even though the energy industry because it's just free taxpayer money people
00:18:26.720 like thune are all in on it thune i would argue is more of a george w bush style republican he's not
00:18:32.200 maga at all so he's shepherding uh you know a bill like this through the senate probably better than 0.97
00:18:38.200 although mitch mcconnell was effective meaning even though mitch mcconnell you know he didn't agree
00:18:43.600 with politically when he wanted to get something done he got it done and i still to this day
00:18:47.840 mitch mcconnell not allowing uh marilyn garland to be uh a vote for confirmation and holding out
00:18:54.360 that was still amazing i never expected that from mitch mcconnell but i can't believe i'm saying
00:18:58.200 anything nice about mitch mcconnell but anyway we're losing audience by the second yeah i'm just
00:19:03.040 saying that was a really you're right but he was more competent i guess more experienced in terms of
00:19:07.600 just getting stuff thrown but anyway so it's just a mess and i think we need to move beyond this at
00:19:13.680 this point uh and just take our victories with this as much as we can particularly in these areas i
00:19:18.340 mean a lot of the inflation reduction act so-called has been reduced trump can this is as close as trump
00:19:25.140 keeping his campaign promise as he can he did everything he could and i think you're when you
00:19:29.600 have a bill this big you can always have this is bad this is bad this is great that's the way it is
00:19:34.800 and people can pick that it's like a rorschach ink test you can see whatever you want in it so how do
00:19:40.360 we move forward now this thing gets passed what do you think happens with the green let's let's talk
00:19:45.980 about elon musk a little bit because the guy's absolutely losing his mind in my opinion i don't know
00:19:50.240 what drugs he's on or what drugs he's off or what has gotten into this man's head pretty compelling
00:19:55.400 where he's in the background but you know that could be then he passes out drug he submits a
00:20:00.180 drug test that says he's got no drugs in his hair which i think like some drugs stay in your hair for
00:20:05.340 like 10 years so i don't know if i really buy that but whatever the fact is is that this man is on a
00:20:11.560 suicide kamikaze mission for what reason what is worth that much to ruin yourself to ruin your legacy
00:20:19.280 and ruin your company because donald trump didn't give you green uh subsidies that you wanted that
00:20:26.180 he told you he wasn't giving you well you know it's like you were saying the horse training i think
00:20:29.780 elon musk thought he wanted to give a 300 million to donald trump was he the top donor to donald trump's
00:20:35.120 campaign he may have been i think it was single and i guess he just thought he would be safe uh from any
00:20:41.320 his his industry his interests yeah whether they be neural link or uh the spacex or tesla and i think
00:20:49.640 what happened was he got involved in doge i don't think he had any idea about the blowback and from his
00:20:57.100 own you know board members and his own investors and the sales tanking and the whole political mess he
00:21:03.840 got himself into where the base of tesla remember electric cars are what less than seven and a half percent
00:21:10.740 of sales in the u.s yeah you almost guarantee the majority of those are liberals regardless you
00:21:15.940 know there's some obviously other people and car enthusiasts but the original appeal of tesla all
00:21:20.600 you have to do is go back 15 years and i have archive at my website climate depot.com going back with
00:21:26.100 elon musk he was always pushing climate alarmism climate fears in order to push and help his business
00:21:31.780 model of electric cars remember electric cars were seen as clean and green and emission free we now know
00:21:37.680 that's complete same with solar when we now know it's complete horseshit from beginning to end
00:21:41.680 it takes half a million pounds of materials that to make 1 000 pounds a tesla battery it takes all
00:21:48.280 sorts of rare earth mining everything that china's uh uh got a monopoly on it takes chinese slave labor 0.96
00:21:54.520 and uyghurs it takes underage kids and i think it's a coincidence mark what do you mean a coincidence
00:21:59.820 it's a coincidence that they're pushing this and everything they need every part they need for
00:22:03.560 no this just goes back to the whole free trade in the 1990s bill clinton i was doing reporting on
00:22:10.700 um the whole rare earth mining do you know that just in the 90s the u.s made 90 of its own rare earth
00:22:17.140 fast forward to now the estimates are 70 and 90 come from china and we can't even process our own
00:22:23.340 material do you know further why the nixon family edward nixon the brother of richard nixon
00:22:29.420 i believe was late 70s early 80s went to the rare earth mining molly core in the united states in
00:22:35.720 the nevada desert which i've visited and done extensive reporting on back in the 90s on their
00:22:40.200 rare earth mining he told them hey you know there's that epa and all these environmental regulations are
00:22:46.620 getting tough here in america i think what you ought to do and this will help your investors is
00:22:50.880 let's offshore all the processing of the rare earth to china and they had why wouldn't edward nixon have
00:22:57.340 connections with china well let's go back another decade when richard nixon normalized relations with
00:23:03.020 china and as at 1973 i don't want to get that wrong i'm sure that the entire nixon administration
00:23:07.860 including his brother had ties with chinese investment firms at any rate use those with the
00:23:15.480 rare earth mining and then outsources all that to avoid our own u.s environmental regulations and now
00:23:21.280 guess what hey that's what happened in the 90s they started shutting down the rare earth we went and
00:23:26.180 visited them and we they had a i don't know i'm getting off on a tangent here but this i'll tie it
00:23:31.240 back to elon musk in a second though but you asked me why china's benefiting the u.s shut down this
00:23:38.320 molly core mine this was they were shutting it down to strangling it again where we went from 90
00:23:43.600 percent of rare earths in the made in the u.s to 90 imported from china they had an endangered desert
00:23:50.280 tortoise on the land out in the mojave desert turned out it wasn't endangered it was regionally
00:23:54.920 endangered and what that means is any species any species at the edge of their natural habitat
00:24:00.740 is considered regionally endangered the area was considered this because endangered sorry desert
00:24:06.940 tortoises were not endangered as a species they were regionally endangered happened to be near this
00:24:12.120 rare earth mine in the united states well they ended up doing tortoise sensitivity training they shut down
00:24:17.600 the mine they had went after them for waste spills and in the in my reporting 29 separate federal state
00:24:24.920 local bureaucratic environmental agencies came on the site set up camp and strangleholded u.s rare earth
00:24:33.140 production china was exempt from all of it so that's ideology so there's a green ideology that does it the
00:24:39.600 same time the clinton administration was sharing u.s technology for free with china they were coming up to
00:24:44.880 speed we were giving them free trade most favored nation status you know it wasn't a conspiracy i
00:24:50.660 don't know it didn't have to be they screwed us one way or the other to make a long story short elon musk
00:24:55.660 was the beneficiary because he came and his whole business model was relying on china and chinese
00:25:00.620 monopoly of all the goods if we went through with this ev mandate which trump and actually the republican
00:25:06.700 congress did come through on ending the california ev mandate which applied you know which then made the
00:25:11.920 lawmakers follow we would have ended up and we still have the problem globally is that there would
00:25:16.240 have been a global chinese monopoly on car production because when you ban gas-powered cars
00:25:21.620 china has a monopoly on cheap evs they would have taken over and probably still are going to at this
00:25:26.860 point because it's so far gone anyway long story short elon's an opportunist elon has some kind of
00:25:32.140 personality disorder i don't want to be accused of you know shaming someone but he's very hard to
00:25:37.380 predict very mercurial as they say and i don't know what he thought getting that involved would do
00:25:43.200 it destroyed his business model and then secondly i don't know why he's turned against trump and what
00:25:47.700 he thinks this is going to accomplish starting a third party andrew yang i mean andrew yang's the
00:25:52.740 first guy to jump in the democrat guy that no one has no base whatsoever so it is a mess i think
00:25:58.080 most of what elon does from here on out is going to just be weird emotional personality disorder and not
00:26:04.160 some strategic thought out because he doesn't when it comes to donald trump i think he's getting
00:26:09.220 get his own form of trump derangement syndrome the thing is mark you remember in 2016 donald trump
00:26:15.460 annihilated 16 candidates who have been in politics their entire life he did it again
00:26:20.420 look what he did to ron de santis i mean ron de santis did it to himself and he's going to do it again
00:26:26.000 why because elon musk has no base the liberals now hate him they don't trust him the business world
00:26:30.860 thinks he's unstable and the maga base and conservatives don't trust him anymore who is
00:26:35.480 his base i guess he's got andrew yang the thing is is too is the thing that hurts my feelings so much
00:26:40.940 is that elon musk is literally mark he's an oligarch right by definition he's an oligarch
00:26:46.100 usually the oligarchs stay together and they're friends literally nobody likes this man he has not
00:26:51.500 one friend not one baby mama likes him donald trump was this man's only friend and it's so sad to see
00:26:58.380 spending how many nights in the lincoln bedroom and this is how he treats but i guess it makes
00:27:02.680 sense why he has no friends it does so i just think everything you see with elon don't even though
00:27:08.880 he's very intelligent don't ascribe his behavior to some master plan and fourth level chess i don't
00:27:15.140 think so i think he's just weird wacky and emotionally wounded and he's going to act out like a petulant
00:27:21.400 child and have no rhyme or reason to what he does so nothing he does is surprising me and i don't know
00:27:26.840 what that means you know i don't know how his business is i'm not that familiar with how they're
00:27:30.760 structured but a normal structured company at some point would overthrow the ceo that's probably not
00:27:36.460 possible with tesla and spacex but you'd think at some point there'd be a coup to oust him but i
00:27:42.220 don't know that he has he probably has it set up so that yeah he's you know he's never going to go
00:27:46.460 anywhere he does the chair the the chair runs tesla i forgot what her name is the chair of the board 0.70
00:27:51.360 one of his good friends he's got the whole board set up but that doesn't mean at the end of the day
00:27:56.220 once these people start if they start getting lawsuits from shareholders i mean you look at
00:28:00.860 some of who owns tesla i'm sure blackrock owns a bunch i'm sure blackstone owns a bunch you look at
00:28:06.160 some of these pension funds these guys are going to start looking at the shares and and looking at
00:28:10.300 this thing going down and it's not because of weak vehicle production it's not because one of his
00:28:15.240 robots killed somebody or one of his robo taxis ran somebody over it's because this man is
00:28:20.120 radically tweeting at donald trump and he's going to lose i promise you on everything every dollar
00:28:26.700 i've got there is no person who can beat donald trump kim jong-un couldn't beat donald trump
00:28:31.840 xi jinping can't beat donald trump vladimir putin can't beat donald trump the ayatollah can't beat
00:28:36.520 donald yeah he can't beat him because he's got the people behind him this is a major populist movement
00:28:42.100 it really is and and you just you can't you're not going to be able to just come in and and assume like
00:28:48.540 oh trump had a bad day let's take it no he's not and elon musk is the last person he has no
00:28:54.520 public appeal it was kind of cute for a while there when he had his toddler on his head and
00:29:00.160 he was giving milton friedman type speeches um i will say that he came to work with a black eye
00:29:05.920 and everyone's like what the hell happened it turns out it was scott besant the treasury secretary
00:29:10.040 that's what i was heard nothing makes sense yeah exactly so i texted peter navarro who doesn't
00:29:16.260 like elon he's very public i'm not leaking anything i texted peter and i go uh i'm taking
00:29:22.000 wagers that you were the one who uh gave him the black guy because peter's uh smart guy but he's a
00:29:28.180 tough guy peter he's not some little weenie who's going to sit there unless someone talked to him
00:29:32.160 and from what i've been told is that's how elon musk uh proceeded in the white house he spoke to
00:29:36.400 everybody like there were nobody he spoke to everybody again that's his personality i don't
00:29:40.720 think he can change that i think no but you know you've seen doc martin the tv show that's probably
00:29:45.540 that's probably a version of elon musk you know just that does you know unexplained and totally
00:29:51.940 rubs people the wrong way you know so he's kind of like ronda santa's a little bit not to
00:29:56.360 make wrong i know i don't i've never met the santa's and that's what i hear but the santa's
00:30:01.240 additional problem is when he ran for president he just had no i guess
00:30:06.040 charisma charisma yeah he just couldn't he's i don't know if you can invent that i mean
00:30:10.140 you and i have worked in politics mark there's people politicians are cut from a cloth where
00:30:16.800 you've got to just be born with it you've got to be born to be uh the ilk of what it is
00:30:22.420 so going back to this the bill right what's in it now it's not perfect by any stretch of the
00:30:34.120 imagination i think we both agree on that and everybody i've had on this show we all agree on
00:30:38.280 it they want more cuts we've wanted cuts forever from congress but we just don't get them that's
00:30:43.240 how congress rolls you they spend money and they and they waste money right in defense of elon i will
00:30:48.360 say he has he's probably rightly upset about the doge recommendations because congress didn't follow
00:30:54.300 along so i can sympathize with him there but i will say he never made it to the pentagon and that
00:30:59.820 apparently has never passed an audit never made it to fort knox either yeah and yeah so i don't so
00:31:05.500 i don't and that was where you know big cuts could have theoretically come from so i don't know uh
00:31:12.040 it's it's a elon he did put his heart and soul into that i think he was a true believer yeah and i
00:31:18.900 thought it was and i was all for it i think what he did with usaid and a lot of exposing stuff was
00:31:23.680 really good i think he may have gone a little bit overboard on some of the social security claims you
00:31:27.340 know the 200 year old people on the list and maybe some of that didn't turn out to be all true but
00:31:32.380 uh they were going fast and furious uh but i think in the end you just hate to say it but this is
00:31:41.000 where we are in american politics this bill the big beautiful bill is about what you the best you can
00:31:47.380 expect to get i think it's time to move on from that what comes next is a great question because
00:31:52.520 now that this is all the focus of this whole thing was building to this and all the executive orders
00:31:58.020 what is next what is on trump's big legislative agenda uh i mean he's everything's going up pace
00:32:04.700 with uh immigration and and and you know there's increased funding there and all is alligator alcatraz
00:32:11.220 whatever that's alligator alcatraz so that's continuing i'm not sure i mean now trump just has to
00:32:17.480 uh keep everything stable i was uncomfortable with the whole iran bombing and i think
00:32:23.180 if he makes this like a one and done and he gets a peace deal between this i'm impressed
00:32:29.080 yeah may not be and i watched a lot of the progressive anti-war and even tucker carlson and
00:32:35.080 who else uh you know a couple anyway i think even they're surprised at the way trump goes about stuff
00:32:41.980 i love steve waykoff as a negotiator i think it's great i've seen people say oh he's not experienced
00:32:47.040 it's exactly what we need at the moment the way he can just go in as a complete real estate guy from
00:32:52.560 new york and then to take over but i'm impressed if he can turn this iran israel uh a nuclear situation
00:32:59.800 if he can turn this into a peaceful situation and all indications are he might be pulling this off
00:33:04.620 right before our eyes against all odds yeah we i was against the two and i came on the show and
00:33:10.240 because i thought it was going to be a lot different than what he did yes he went in there he dropped the
00:33:14.260 bombs and he got out that now in hindsight obviously he couldn't have said that's what
00:33:19.080 he was going to do because that would be what joe biden or kamala harris would have told iran they
00:33:24.680 would have said uh hey we're coming by at 1 p.m today we're hitting here here and here just be
00:33:30.840 ready we'll be there at 1 p.m sharp but then we're leaving so wasn't general milley in the first time
00:33:35.320 didn't he say he would call up china that really was and let them know if donald trump was doing
00:33:39.920 anything suspicious how did he not get tried for uh that's what it is mark you know you know better
00:33:45.460 than anyone these people don't get away with murder unless you're named donald trump you don't get
00:33:49.740 away with uh as much as paying for your chief financial officer's granddaughter to go to school
00:33:54.960 without that man going to jail but uh so going back to that so you know that's where we're at but
00:34:00.680 back to the iran thing just for a brief second sure you know i was against it too but knowing now
00:34:05.620 what i know and how he did it well for it and donald trump we we were wrong in my opinion all
00:34:10.660 this fomented opposition just fade away i mean everyone's like oh okay oh that makes sense
00:34:15.920 when you're wrong and i i was wrong tucker i think admitted he was wrong because like i said we didn't
00:34:22.620 know what was going to happen now that we know in hindsight that's what happened i'm glad he did it
00:34:26.140 and uh he we've got to trust this man because he doesn't want war he doesn't want to be george bush
00:34:30.820 and uh yes you know we got to realize that so back now to the bills by the way i give him full
00:34:35.800 credit for everything he's tried to do with ukraine now it's a lot harder than i think he thought
00:34:40.840 yeah but man i love every aspect i love bringing zelinski to the white house i love the real real
00:34:46.740 the uh the uh real tv aspect of it you know the reality tv i loved all the you know continued
00:34:54.480 negotiation the open frustration i mean he's really trying to end that war even though he's
00:35:00.140 technically hasn't been successful yet but you can't i don't fault him an ounce for everything
00:35:04.260 he's tried to keep in that campaign promise he thought iran was going to be hard until he realized
00:35:09.000 what was going on russian ukraine who would have thought iran would turn out easier than ending
00:35:14.240 that you you know you would have thought it was over so because the month these guys don't want to
00:35:17.640 end that war they both want to keep it going putin wants to keep it going zelinski wants to keep it
00:35:22.020 going i mean it's like how the hell do you end a war when you've got two people who just won't give it
00:35:26.600 up with you heard what trump said about uh israel and iran you don't know what they have they're
00:35:31.140 doing because but they they open they both open up their eyes they're like all right well these 0.99
00:35:35.460 idiots in iran better stop throwing bombs and israel you guys got bombs on the way after a ceasefire 1.00
00:35:40.200 send them back and things uh fingers crossed have been seemingly quiet between the two well 1.00
00:35:45.860 hopefully we negotiate some sort of resolution and that resolution obviously has to be that iran
00:35:51.460 doesn't get nuclear weapons or have any like i saw where he returned he's getting rid of the
00:35:56.400 sanctions against places like syria yes anything we can do to end that sort of bush cheney obama
00:36:02.460 biden hostility where we're always at at some point we just have to start making friends there i love
00:36:08.640 his speech i guess i want to say it was dubai is that where it was his speech it was in saudi or uh
00:36:14.460 i mean that was one of the greatest foreign policy speeches yeah in my lifetime and you know i know
00:36:22.360 that horrified the uh you know the national security state but it was a fan i i hope he carries that out
00:36:28.400 because that's exactly what we need yeah the neocons of the world are dead and that's exactly what he
00:36:33.180 said so just back to this bill elon obviously not for for whatever his reasons are but and it's not
00:36:40.680 perfect i'll say it again and i'll keep saying until i'm blue in the face but how could you be
00:36:44.640 against deporting a million illegals minimally a year how could you uh be against 150 billion dollar
00:36:50.400 uh border wall funding how could you be against finishing phase two of the border wall how could
00:36:55.960 you be against hiring 10 000 new ice agents 5 000 customs agents and 3 000 border patrol agents how
00:37:02.120 could you be against funding a golden dome to keep us from threats over in the middle east uh how could
00:37:08.220 you be against modernizing the military you'd be against it is and i think just to say what thomas
00:37:13.860 massey's argument against it which is just the whole system is broken i won't participate
00:37:18.160 and i understand the value of that it's great to have at least one pure congressman as a protest vote
00:37:24.060 and he articulates that reason against these omnibus bills he doesn't support them and anything so
00:37:28.840 i can understand that and he's worried about the debt that's the only reason but
00:37:32.440 this is the best we're going to be able to do at the moment with our current house and senate
00:37:38.020 leadership and the republican side i believe massey voted to raise the debt ceiling under
00:37:42.320 uh oh biden i think there yeah he had some technical uh justification of why that one instance was
00:37:49.280 okay or he was you know he had some you know he's very he's very consistent even if even if he's
00:37:55.320 consistently even if he's wrong on something he's definitely very consistent and logical i respect the
00:38:00.300 hell out of the guy i mean it reminds me when i grew up in the 80s we had a guy named phil crane
00:38:05.140 in um i guess he was from illinois and he was known as dr no in the senate and he was always
00:38:11.720 but this is before even ron paul and so then of course ron paul became dr no but so i don't i'm not
00:38:17.820 gonna i'm never never gonna bash thomas massey because i think he's i think he's an honest sincere
00:38:22.040 guy both left and right respect him trump doesn't like him that's the one complaint i will register
00:38:26.780 here with you today john is i don't like the deep state going into kentucky to try to oust him at
00:38:32.960 trump's blessing and i saw their first ad it was embarrassingly reminded me of a never trump ad
00:38:37.560 except it was a never massey ad i don't think trump's helping him with that i think trump should
00:38:42.140 just get off of that he should invite massey to a white house dinner or something and they should
00:38:46.500 do something together he should he gets nowhere by making an enemy of thomas massey yeah i think it's
00:38:52.240 probably not best money spent possible but at the same time massey should be the bigger man and and say
00:38:57.540 listen where can we agree on things absolutely yeah i don't think he should have he's not going to vote for
00:39:02.760 this bill that's his brand that's right but yeah i think absolutely he they need they need to figure 0.98
00:39:08.720 that out because it's just the grandstanding by massey it's stupid on his part too there can only 0.80
00:39:13.340 be one alpha in dc and we all know it's not thomas but he's only one congressman yeah so they don't 0.95
00:39:18.780 yeah but that's what they do these guys get such big heads mark because there's such a small person
00:39:23.120 in a big pond they're like well i want to relevant now imagine if the midterms bring it closer and he's
00:39:28.540 like the deciding vote for future he'd become very important in washington hopefully we don't have to
00:39:34.500 worry about that which uh brings us to our next topic is those midterm elections are you confident
00:39:39.600 the republicans it seems they're doing all they can to lose them on purpose do you think they can
00:39:44.580 hold this thing i'm starting to think they can now i was in the i worked in the u.s senate environment
00:39:50.440 public works committee i worked in senator james inhofe oklahoma was the chairman back in 2006 is when i
00:39:56.420 started and i was there through 2009 so i was there uh actually i knew it was coming and whenever you
00:40:03.000 have a republican win so that was george bush won in 2004 the following two years it's usually a sweep
00:40:09.240 by the opposing party well we saw it coming i actually was flew off to bali indonesia at a four-star
00:40:15.480 resort oceanfront at the u.n climate summit i paid for by the state department with 16 000 round
00:40:21.660 trip tickets and watched it all with horror while i was at that summit uh you know because i knew that
00:40:27.060 republicans were going to lose and of course the democrats took over so the difference this time
00:40:32.720 is i just saw the number i don't have the number in my head but i just saw where donald trump is the
00:40:37.460 incumbent with the biggest war chest in the history uh of presidents sitting presidents and he can use
00:40:45.200 that for the republican congress and he has the narrative he has a message and he can continue this on
00:40:51.080 as long as the economy doesn't tank by next year or something some international crisis of some kind
00:40:56.360 i watch a lot of these liberal podcasters from young turks and do dissidents and uh and some of
00:41:03.720 these other shows and they follow the democrats because they hate the democratic party they come
00:41:08.240 from the populist left yeah all of their messaging is democrats are completely clueless all the internal
00:41:14.980 polls are showing this there's no groundswell none of the normal things the fundraising none of the
00:41:20.220 normal things you would see positioned to show a democrat takeover in the house and senate next
00:41:24.860 year are happening are coming together so at this moment in mid 2025 i'm very confident republicans
00:41:32.520 could maintain and gain seats in both chambers i say that as a prediction watch we prove wrong but
00:41:38.260 that's the that's where everything is headed at the moment everything can change but i think
00:41:42.380 structurally it's republican and this is against all conventional wisdom normal historical uh elections
00:41:49.220 this is potentially very good and imagine if donald trump got increased gains in both houses
00:41:53.980 he could really remake america i've said from the beginning donald trump's presidency has the ability
00:42:00.140 to be the most consequential presidency since fdr now i've yeah i'm not a presidential historian but
00:42:06.880 i am a student of presidential history fdr obviously was a game-changing presidency of the 20th century
00:42:13.200 the next closest would be rfk i'm sorry jfk okay and his was more of a sort of reimagining of the
00:42:21.320 presidency it wasn't even so much on policy but it was more on style and more on inspiration
00:42:26.360 and then the next would be ronald reagan was a transformational presidency that had more to do with
00:42:32.780 cold war i would argue than domestically although he gave us the longest peacetime economic recovery
00:42:37.980 and then you had uh you know i think the second and this always surprised people is bill clinton's
00:42:43.600 second term mostly because you had gridlock in washington you had the end of the cold war
00:42:48.640 you had a republican house and senate you had a a sort of you know what would you call it a moderate
00:42:55.840 democrat at that point because he had been beaten so badly after the first two years of trying to do
00:43:00.200 hillary health care etc yeah then we had budget surpluses we had cheap energy we had a booming economy
00:43:06.380 we had peace so that actually had an interesting thing and then of course the next one would be
00:43:10.880 george bush who was a disaster transformationally because of the reaction to 9-11 starting a war in
00:43:15.680 iraq and all the money and turning us into a surveillance state etc and obama was again almost
00:43:21.180 like a jfk more style than substance and he just basically continued a lot of george w bush's policy so
00:43:27.680 anyway i don't want to give you a boring lesson but my point is having said all that i really think trump
00:43:32.420 yeah equal or exceed fdr in terms of consequential presidency yeah i think you're absolutely right
00:43:38.820 the number is i think a billion and a half dollars that donald trump has that's it nearly a billion of
00:43:44.500 it he raised after november so that means people are still all in on donald trump they're still all
00:43:50.300 in on him uh you know controlling the republican party and let me get you hopefully the rhinos will open
00:43:55.720 their eyes go ahead what were you saying one other option would be and this would be fascinating
00:43:59.080 is if the democrats do capture the house what's the first thing they're going to go after impeachment
00:44:04.140 impeachment now i think given everything we've been through with all the cases i think that would
00:44:08.860 even strengthen trump's second term you know this term somehow uh now if they got both houses they
00:44:16.120 could actually i don't know i think you need too many to remove them but uh it would be they're gonna
00:44:21.160 they're gonna come after they would come after him but you know i think at that point donald trump is 0.68
00:44:25.640 immune from anything he's already been immune from impeachment it's just the dumbest thing to even
00:44:29.340 mention it at this point thinking of jamie raskin being the chair of the oversight committee scares
00:44:33.940 the heck out of me mark um before we wrap up i want to turn to uh your next vacation uh november it
00:44:41.680 looks like you're heading to the u.s climate summit which uh is almost going to be like a morgue
00:44:47.080 yes well i have been uh going uh this will be my 22nd and i could be off one number there but since
00:44:53.540 2001 i've been 2002 i've been attending these and this will be the 22nd u.n climate summit this year
00:45:02.160 it's being held in a rainforest amazon rainforest city called belim brazil which i've actually been
00:45:07.420 there before because i've done an amazon rainforest documentary and this conference a couple notable
00:45:14.100 things about it number one is they had a uh in order to showcase their saving the the amazon which
00:45:21.760 is what they the government claimed they they clear-cut tens of thousands of acres of virgin
00:45:29.460 amazon rainforest to put in highways so that the international bureaucrats the world leaders the
00:45:35.500 oligarch billionaires the hollywood celebrities private jets everyone they're clear-cutting it and all 0.97
00:45:41.740 of the indigenous that all the concerns that they've ever had about the rainforest went out the
00:45:45.700 window this is reported on by the bbc and when asked about it the brazilian environmental minister
00:45:50.900 is like well we we need to have roads so we can bring people in to showcase to the world how we're
00:45:55.260 saving the rainforest so you need to clear-cut the rainforest for a worthless lame u.n summit so you 0.95
00:46:01.080 can showcase how you're saving the rainforest unbelievable the ceo of this summit the u.n climate summit
00:46:07.440 and brazil has actually said climate change is our biggest war and they're upset right now because
00:46:12.980 fewer than 30 of 200 countries who signed on to the u.n paris agreement have now drafted plans to meet
00:46:20.200 those u.n emission climate emission targets so the entire thing is a complete collapse i was at the last
00:46:27.240 one in baku azerbaijan which is by the way the definition of an oligarch nation it's oil rich it's run by
00:46:34.480 essentially uh like a dictatorship and it's you have rolls royce dealerships gucci uh all the places
00:46:42.600 like it looks like rodeo drive that's nice one street and then you go the next one and you have
00:46:47.520 like you know loose cows running around and dire poverty and dirt streets unfortunately my hotel was
00:46:53.240 actually in the area where the cows were running around it's true story i actually stayed you know
00:46:57.980 with the dirt highways and stuff but a fascinating city yet extreme wealth extreme poverty which is what
00:47:04.460 of course the oligarchs are you know world economic form that's their vision of society you will own
00:47:08.780 nothing and be happy well who owns it they will own it you know the bill gates and all anyway so this
00:47:13.740 summit the last one was a complete fiasco and it collapsed the argentinian delegation left france never
00:47:19.640 sent a delegation the u.s uh was in complete mourning their whole biden administration because trump had
00:47:25.280 won the u.n was in a panic al gore condemned it now they're coming up to this one it's it's going to be
00:47:31.400 an absolute wake this may be the first one in my lifetime that i've attended this is my 22nd where
00:47:37.880 there'll be no official u.s delegation george w bush sent a delegation of course obama biden even trump
00:47:43.740 first term did this time around there'll be from all the reports there'll be no official delegation
00:47:50.340 we're just saying you know to them and if that's the case i may appoint myself as the official u.n
00:47:56.580 u.s representative without even the trump administration's blessing why do i need it i'll just declare
00:48:01.620 it and show up and have some fun self-identify mark that's right i'll identify as the u.s delegation
00:48:07.480 in 2016 i went right after trump won it was in november again this was in marrakesh morocco
00:48:12.940 showed up with a cardboard cutout of donald trump and a paper shredder and i printed up the u.n
00:48:18.080 paris climate agreement and i started shredding it right there outside the press room i had hundreds
00:48:23.160 of reporters surround me within minutes they had u.n armed cops remove me they took down the
00:48:29.340 cardboard cutout of trump that was standing behind me and they tossed me out in the desert of morocco
00:48:34.380 not making that up i was and they came and after a few minutes came and confiscated my briefcase took
00:48:39.340 all my papers and they stripped my credentials and banned me for life i did get back in the next year
00:48:45.480 but i had to go plea grovel apologize sign a letter saying that i will behave and not misbehave
00:48:51.520 again so they let me back in so i i'm on i'm on uh you know restricted notice now i have to watch my
00:48:57.500 behavior at future ones but but but it's a uh it's amazing i call it the trump effect it's all over
00:49:05.940 the world not just the summit that's collapsed you had the german election the guy sounded like donald
00:49:10.640 trump they were making fun the guy they were making fun of the uh green uh targets that that germany had
00:49:17.040 to meet germany is of course the most climate activist nation in all of europe the eu temporary
00:49:22.460 halted the green deal the eu elections went against them you had the farmers protesting even in canada
00:49:28.020 with i always say justin trudeau is a is the puppet on the strings of the world economic forum well their
00:49:34.700 new leader mark carney is the puppet master the one holding the strings even he had to zero out the
00:49:40.540 carbon tax in canada that's how anti-climate sentiment the whole world is becoming it's amazing to watch
00:49:46.760 the trump effect yeah it's nice to see people are getting a brain uh i i think that's brilliant
00:49:52.820 with the paper shredder i'm going to be heading to europe at the end of the month for a little bit
00:49:56.500 of a vacation and i wear my trump hat every year i go i wear my trump hat because i know it pisses 0.64
00:50:01.420 people off like no it's funny in the airports we always get people disgusted all the europeans when
00:50:06.560 you go to europe or but once you go out particularly africa love this south america the the people
00:50:12.640 get it he's like a bolsonero in south america and he's like a you know populist leader in europe like
00:50:18.120 we were in poland and other places they love trump there yep yep they do uh but it's the people i think
00:50:24.540 part of it's got to be a jealousy thing with these people but uh you know i don't know that they don't
00:50:29.160 have a an alpha you look at every leader over there with the exception obviously of the women
00:50:33.760 but uh you look at them and and they're like just these beta boys you look at macron getting beat up by
00:50:39.480 his wife it's when he gets off the plane up in canada he had trudeau uh i'm trying to think who
00:50:46.020 the heck else is over there even uh zelinski i think plays a role that he's not really who he is
00:50:51.120 he was wearing like tutus like five or six years ago on television shows so playing piano with his
00:50:57.300 member uh you know right right so it's like you got all these people and donald trump is the one
00:51:02.820 who walks to the room who's a reality tv star but also happens to be a billionaire real estate guy
00:51:07.760 yeah and just slams his hand on the table and says i'm here and i think it's you know i guess i
00:51:12.740 could see where they're coming from that they're a little bit upset that this man comes in here and
00:51:16.440 just dominates a room but who's telling you that for the last 25 30 years mark that you couldn't
00:51:22.520 have found one like that there's plenty of masculine men in i almost said france but i'd be eating my
00:51:28.960 words maybe germany i i don't know maybe like uh spain yeah i don't know it's fascinating europe
00:51:37.800 is a whole different you always say you know like the liberals and the progressives in the u.s
00:51:41.940 well europe has this europe is much further yeah they are much they're much further along on the green
00:51:47.520 energy and look at them they've just had a bigger collapse they've had higher energy you have spain
00:51:51.860 having the blackouts and now they're admitting they were due to solar wind mandates and you have
00:51:56.020 spain putting restrictions on air conditioning in the summer equivalent to like 81 degrees fahrenheit
00:52:01.040 like you can't turn your air conditioner colder than that for the shops because they're all on
00:52:04.900 energy rationing and it's by design you know the uk energy chief years ago say we have to get used to
00:52:11.120 energy only when it's available we can't have energy on power on demand it's like that's a that's a 0.99
00:52:15.700 decision not because of there's an energy shortage you're creating one on purpose yeah bunch of fools 0.93
