00:00:33.680 This is totally life-affirming.
00:00:37.760 I'm not bragging, but I feel great at 55. I'll just say that.
00:00:42.780 Okay, sorry. You ready?

00:01:14.120 Okay, so there are so many unfolding stories swirling around that give the attentive person anxiety.
00:01:22.860 Anyone who's paying very close attention to what's happening in the world right now is anxious about it. I will say that.
00:01:27.600 But there is also a lot to look forward to and a lot to be comforted by.
00:01:32.980 Yes.
00:01:33.200 And I just want to go through with you, if we could, since you were right in the middle of this election, working on behalf, outside the campaign, but on behalf of reform and on behalf of the country, really, you know the answer to this question.
00:01:49.800 What are the things that you're looking forward to over the next four years?
00:01:56.160 Well, first of all, stop to the madness.
00:01:58.920 I mean, there was no way we were going to last another four years with the insanity that was going on.
00:02:02.660 So we can put a stop to that, at least for the moment.
00:02:06.200 I think the most, one of the most exciting things to me is...
00:02:09.160 But can we just pause for one second?
00:02:10.660 I think that's not an overstatement.
00:02:12.220 It's not.
00:02:13.100 I mean, if that's all...
00:02:14.800 I'm going to be disappointed if that's all we get, but if that's all we get, that's a serious step in the right direction.
00:02:20.240 So just name three trends that are, well, I guess Biden's still president, that have been in progress the last four years that we could not sustain for another four years.
00:02:29.800 Well, I start with immigration.
00:02:30.820 Yeah.
00:02:31.280 I mean, this is insane.
00:02:32.060 I mean, we're seeing what we've seen over the last four years, not only the wide open borders.
00:02:37.120 We don't even really know who's come in.
00:02:39.340 We know there's tens of millions of illegals that have come in, millions of getaways.
00:02:45.440 I still don't understand why we haven't had a deeper conversation about the tens of thousands of Chinese national males that have come in over the southern border.
00:02:52.780 Like, what the hell is going on with that?
00:02:54.980 Whoever else has come in.
00:02:56.520 At the same time, conversation about the fact that for four years they've been importing new voters.
00:03:02.220 I would hope that every Republican, regardless of where they are on the spectrum, because again, we know that not all Republicans are created equal.
00:03:09.340 That even the Chamber of Commerce Republicans understand over the next four years for their own self-preservation, they should be wholeheartedly behind Donald Trump's deportation efforts.
00:03:19.160 We start with the hard criminals.
00:03:20.340 We start with those illegals that have criminal records.
00:03:22.580 And we keep right on going and deporting all of the new Democratic voters that they've imported over the last four years for the sake of self-preservation.
00:03:29.500 If you want to have a two-party system instead of a single-party state, the immigration has to be fixed.
00:03:35.760 And I would argue to the point of if we do not have – if Donald Trump does not unleash Tom Homan and Stephen Miller to go all the way to actually deport everybody that is needed to be deported, to fix the southern border, it calls into question who we are as a country.
00:03:55.700 I mean, this to me is one of the things that, again, if you don't have a border, you don't have sovereignty, you don't have citizens.
00:04:02.640 What does it actually mean to be a country?
00:04:03.920 What does it mean to be a citizen?
00:04:05.480 What does it mean to be America?
00:04:06.760 What does it mean to be an American citizen?
00:04:08.380 What does it mean to have a constitution?
00:04:09.700 We're very unique people.
00:04:10.960 We have a very unique way of life.
00:04:13.280 And with everything that has been taking place in regards to immigration, if it was to have continued for another four years, again, I think all bets are off on who we are as a people, who we are as a country.
00:04:22.560 Yeah, we're done.
00:04:23.500 So immigration, first thing, foreign policy, I mean, that to me, what are we even doing on a whole host of fronts in regards to Ukraine?
00:04:33.860 That whole mess is still going where we're still apparently sending billions of dollars over to Ukraine before they, you know, shut the lights out on the Biden White House.
00:04:41.500 But the foreign policy, again, getting us to the point, and also the weakness that we have demonstrated on the international stage for the last four years, at a certain point, that was going to cause even more serious implications if it was another four years of that.
00:04:54.460 And I don't know where it would have ended.
00:04:56.040 Obviously, Donald Trump's showing up.
00:04:57.180 Well, this week, I mean, as if he hasn't started enough wars, I mean, he started all kinds of wars that people aren't, I mean, we're in battle with the Houthis right now.
00:05:06.400 Right.
00:05:06.540 But Biden just announced that in the final couple weeks of his administration, he's going to start a war with Iran.
00:05:14.440 With Lindsey Graham's full support, this to me is at some point, at some point, I hope that we can restructure the Republican Party in the primaries of 2026.
00:05:29.160 That's another topic that we'd love to discuss with you.
00:05:31.580 But yeah, at some point, Donald Trump won on an America First message.
00:05:36.300 Right.
00:05:36.620 It'd be really nice if the rest of the Republicans fell in line with that and understanding that the people voted for change and the change is what they want with America First.
00:05:45.100 And that includes Donald Trump's approach on foreign policy.
00:05:48.440 That does not include more shooting wars with Iran and others across the globe.
00:05:52.960 At the same time, there is a certain approach that I think Donald Trump brings to foreign policy that brought us peace.
00:05:58.400 Yeah.
00:05:58.980 I mean, four years of no new wars, peace.
00:06:01.380 He has the ability to do that, and it does not involve starting new wars or foreign intervention.
00:06:08.300 So I would say that's one of the other topics.
00:06:10.640 One of the other issues that I think has been a blessing for us with Trump winning, the economy.
00:06:17.720 I mean, can you imagine if we had another four years of this economy where we'd be?
00:06:22.080 When they tell us, they gaslight us and tell us the economy's fine, inflation, all these things are figments of your imagination.
00:06:29.160 Everybody's doing just fine.
00:06:30.540 And you look at, and that's what I do with the American majority.
00:06:34.320 I work with the grassroots.
00:06:35.400 I'm out there with everyday people.
00:06:37.460 It is not fine.
00:06:39.260 And I couldn't imagine another four years of them being devastated economically where we would be.
00:06:45.940 So those three things, immigration, foreign policy, economy, inflation.
00:06:50.020 I know personally, someone I'm close to the other day just told me, a middle class person, solid, you know, probably makes higher than middle.
00:07:00.020 I mean, I don't know, probably makes 160 a year if I had to guess.
00:07:05.260 Which used to be considered pretty solid.
00:07:07.440 Pretty darn good.
00:07:08.320 Solid.
00:07:08.680 I was shocked when I made 100 grand a year.
00:07:10.660 Yeah.
00:07:11.020 When I was in my 30s.
00:07:12.620 But anyway.
00:07:13.640 Right.
00:07:14.140 I worried about food prices.
00:07:15.580 Yes.
00:07:16.580 No, I know.
00:07:17.720 How?
00:07:18.380 It's kind of shocking when you realize that people that are making what would be considered, used to be considered pretty good salary going.
00:07:24.060 Kind of rich, yeah.
00:07:24.680 Yeah.
00:07:24.940 We're feeling a little pinched here.
00:07:27.400 Yeah.
00:07:27.560 Okay.
00:07:28.160 So, sorry.
00:07:28.740 I just wanted to, because I think it's just a win, you know, stopping the destruction or slowing it down is itself a win, as you noted.
00:07:36.680 Exactly.
00:07:37.540 Okay.
00:07:37.820 But then the next step becomes, Donald Trump to me, listen, nobody's perfect.
00:07:44.320 We all have many imperfections and nobody's a perfect person.
00:07:47.420 But I think Donald Trump's a man for the hour.
00:07:50.700 He has shown and demonstrated political courage.
00:07:53.440 I cannot even begin to imagine the last four years of the political, the lawfare that has been put on him, used against him, the incredible pressure to try and destroy him.
00:08:06.480 And I've told people this, and I'll say it here.
00:08:09.760 Donald Trump knew what he was going up against.
00:08:13.060 He didn't run away from it.
00:08:14.980 He ran at it.
00:08:16.100 That, to me, is one of the most amazing parts of this story.
00:08:18.620 In some ways, I think back to the story of David and Goliath, and this is one of my favorite stories out of Scripture.
00:08:25.080 If you go back and look at it, David didn't run away.
00:08:28.040 He didn't kind of slowly approach Goliath.
00:08:29.800 He ran at him.
00:08:32.180 And that kind of, to me, is Donald Trump knows exactly what he's up against.
00:08:35.360 He's up against very powerful forces.
00:08:37.160 I mean, as much as we despise the administrative state and the deep state and the corporate propagandists and all these things, these are very powerful forces.
00:08:44.160 And they can do a lot of damage to your life.
00:08:46.680 He didn't have to do this.
00:08:47.560 He could have been enjoying a very good life somewhere else in the world, playing golf for the rest of his life every day in the lovely spot in the world.
00:08:52.960 He ran at them.
00:08:54.520 And he took incredible pressure, incredible body blows, kept running at them, and in many ways triumphed over these people that were trying to destroy him.
00:09:06.120 And now he's back in a position of power to be able to implement, I think, a vision for this country that will begin a restoration.
00:09:15.060 This is—I don't consider myself a conservative, necessarily, because what are we actually conserving?
00:09:20.980 This, to me, is one of my great frustrations with the conservative movement writ large.
00:09:25.160 Explain to me again what we've actually been conserving over the last 40, 50, 60 years.
00:09:29.000 I'm more interested—and it's very—it's a very reactive term, too, conservative.
00:09:34.880 I'm far more interested in restoration, in being a restorationist, in restoring the republic, in restoring a constitutional republic, in restoring a government of, by, and for the people that actually promotes the interests of the American people, which is kind of the premise of the American republic, right?
00:09:52.800 All power flows from the American people, from the people to their duly elected representatives, who they make the stewards of the power and money given to them, to put together a government that actually promotes and protects the interests of the American people every day on every issue.
00:10:04.440 And we've kind of lost sight of that.
00:10:06.320 And Donald Trump's—the great temerity of Donald Trump back in 2016 was that he kind of showed up and said, hey, I think a government of, by, and for the people should actually promote the American people and their interests.
00:10:16.480 And that's why I think he was considered such a great threat by permanent D.C., the administrative state, whatever you want—however you want to define it.
00:10:22.820 This, to me, is a moment in time where we have a shot, where we have an actual shot of restoring the republic, of restoring a government of, and of, for, and by the people, to the people, to promote the people, to protect their interests.
00:10:37.660 That, to me, is one of the most interesting things over the next four years.
00:10:40.140 But it's going to require someone like Donald Trump, with this political courage, instilling into others political courage to actually do the right things.
00:10:48.780 I'm a little nervous about Mike Johnson as speaker.
00:10:51.440 I have my doubts about John Thune.
00:10:54.620 But I think if he can actually instill the political courage necessary into Republicans on the Hill, but also into his various nominees, who I think will actually have what it takes to do what they should be doing in the various departments and agencies,
00:11:06.680 we could be in for a singular moment in American history in which we look back and go, this was the turning point where we actually began to restore the republic.
00:11:17.660 So many threads, but before we get to—no, no, I think it's a great overview.
00:11:25.460 Will all of Donald Trump's nominees be confirmed by the Republican Senate?
00:11:32.120 I feel pretty good about a lot of them.
00:11:34.540 I would not be surprised if Pete Hegseth gets 52.
00:11:38.320 We'll see.
00:11:39.480 It feels that way.
00:11:40.420 Yeah, it feels like he's going to get—
00:11:41.720 I'll be a lot more specific.
00:11:43.200 They don't like Tulsi Gabbard.
00:11:44.580 They don't like Tulsi.
00:11:45.760 I think RFK's got some problems.
00:11:49.380 But you can't—
00:11:49.980 I feel good.
00:11:50.300 I feel good about Pete.
00:11:51.140 I feel good about Russ Vogt.
00:11:52.760 I think Russ is going to be one of the most—
00:11:53.900 Russ is great.
00:11:54.520 It's going to be one of the most important—nobody really talks about OMB outside of D.C.
00:11:58.740 I'm telling you, one of the most important vehicles that Donald Trump will be able to
00:12:02.720 use to deconstruct and dismantle the administrative state is OMB.
00:12:06.600 And you've got to have somebody like Russ Vogt.
00:12:08.120 Ed Martin's going to be the chief of staff.
00:12:10.100 Bishop has his deputy.
00:12:12.320 And then I'm hoping he gets Eric Ulan in as deputy director of management.
00:12:15.040 That's a rock star team at OMB.
00:12:17.820 Marty McCary, FDA.
00:12:19.520 Amazing.
00:12:20.020 Yeah, that would be huge.
00:12:21.640 Paul Atkins at SEC.
00:12:23.520 I feel good about that.
00:12:25.800 So I think a lot of these people are going to—
00:12:26.960 But you can't—
00:12:27.740 I think he's going to get an overwhelming number of them through without too many problems.
00:12:33.320 I think Tulsi and RFK are going to be question marks, if I'm being honest.
00:12:37.440 I don't think you can tolerate that.
00:12:39.440 I don't either.
00:12:40.160 Because it's one thing to get like—and I don't want to attack anybody.
00:12:43.740 This hasn't even started.
00:12:45.140 But, you know, there are some nominees who are just like, whatever.
00:12:47.800 They're like everyone.
00:12:49.620 They don't have views that are consistent with what Trump ran on.
00:12:51.860 That's a fact.
00:12:53.400 And so if the Republican Congress rubber stamps their buddies, whatever.
00:12:58.820 But I'm sorry.
00:13:00.520 They're not in charge of the Republican Party.
00:13:02.840 They're a lot less popular than Donald Trump.
00:13:04.460 And I don't understand if you're—you know, Bobby Kennedy's point was like really important.
00:13:08.100 He's not a perfect person, but we have a system that is killing people.
00:13:11.320 And he's a step in the right direction.
00:13:13.400 Same with Tulsi.
00:13:14.080 Yeah.
00:13:14.520 She's not a perfect person.
00:13:15.620 No one is.
00:13:16.140 But our foreign policy is insane and it's hurting the United States.
00:13:18.800 It is.
00:13:19.140 It is.
00:13:19.620 Why wouldn't the White House call over to Republican senators and say, you get in our way, we're going to crush you?
00:13:26.460 How's that sound?
00:13:28.140 I mean it.
00:13:28.720 No, I've proposed this to certain people behind the scenes.
00:13:30.860 Yeah, like let's go.
00:13:32.000 So—
00:13:32.480 We're not going to put up with that.
00:13:33.140 Well, first of all, the agent of change.
00:13:35.100 People voted for Donald Trump.
00:13:36.480 Yeah.
00:13:36.600 I mean this was a very clear election.
00:13:39.540 You get choice A, choice B, very different approaches to government and to the future.
00:13:44.360 There was no real illusion about—like there's no confusion about what people were voting for.
00:13:48.540 And they voted definitively for Donald Trump.
00:13:51.160 You know, first Republican to win the popular vote since 2004.
00:13:55.460 First Republican to win 311 electoral votes since 1988.
00:13:59.140 First non-consecutive president since Grover Cleveland.
00:14:01.940 I mean this is a historical election.
00:14:04.040 He wins.
00:14:04.960 Agent of change.
00:14:05.700 Agent of change gets his change agents in the various departments and agencies.
00:14:10.480 Well, yeah.
00:14:11.160 And the Senate gets to advise and consent.
00:14:13.300 They don't get to say, no, we want our buddy and we don't like this person, so we're not going to give you this person.
00:14:17.960 Donald Trump won.
00:14:19.480 Donald Trump won and also, by the way, I would make the argument, help get them the Senate and the House.
00:14:25.980 So you have majorities because of Donald Trump.
00:14:29.340 Donald Trump won.
00:14:30.360 Donald Trump would like these people to actually be in these departments and agencies.
00:14:34.340 And unless they're a criminal or unless there's some, you know, terrible thing in their past that is disqualifying, you get to confirm them.
00:14:43.620 End of story.
00:14:44.380 Well, let's be honest.
00:14:45.800 Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy are opposed by lobbyists.
00:14:50.160 That's what opposes them.
00:14:51.460 Bobby Kennedy is opposed by pharma and ag lobbyists.
00:14:55.060 Tulsi Gabbard is opposed by lobbyists acting on behalf of foreign countries.
00:14:58.160 That's a fact.
00:14:58.920 Yeah.
00:14:59.000 So there is no reason that lobbyists should take precedent over the population of the United States.
00:15:07.480 And so why wouldn't you say to a cop?
00:15:09.820 I can think of a cop.
00:15:10.220 Yeah, but then you're acting.
00:15:11.120 So, but D.C.
00:15:12.880 You've been in D.C.
00:15:14.060 I've been around 25 years.
00:15:15.000 So where's the cleansing sort of justice where you call up certain senators, I'm not going to name names, and say, not only will we primary you and make certain you lose your Senate seat, we'll make certain you don't get a job after you leave the Senate.
00:15:25.780 And then we're going to unleash some of the toughest people in the Republican Party to take a really close look at you.
00:15:31.080 So I've proposed.
00:15:31.660 We're going to do to you what you plan to do to our nominees.
00:15:33.740 I have proposed to some people behind the scenes that Donald Trump should have a very honest conversation with some of these senators.
00:15:39.400 Yeah.
00:15:39.500 You have friends and family and associates that would like to be involved in this administration.
00:15:45.060 Some of you have primaries in 2026.
00:15:47.360 Let me be very clear here.
00:15:49.020 If you will, if you oppose or vote against any of my nominees, I will find primary opponents for you in 26.
00:15:55.420 Also, none of your family or friends or associates will ever find a job inside of this administration.
00:16:00.400 I will become one of your worst enemies.
00:16:02.060 But also, if you're going to attack the, if you're going to sit back and allow people to call Bobby Kennedy a nutcase.
00:16:08.280 Right.
00:16:08.420 And Tulsi Gabbard, an agent of a foreign power.
00:16:11.400 Really?
00:16:13.140 I mean, I'm thinking of one senator in particular from the Northeast.
00:16:18.340 You know, whatever.
00:16:19.380 Without even getting in.
00:16:20.640 Right.
00:16:20.900 These are people who are vulnerable.
00:16:23.000 Yes.
00:16:23.300 Really?
00:16:23.560 We're going to look into Bobby Kennedy's behavior?
00:16:25.960 Well, how about we look into yours?
00:16:27.240 I think they're using.
00:16:28.480 Like, let's not play.
00:16:29.000 I'm sick of this.
00:16:29.680 I know.
00:16:30.120 I think they're trying the carrot approach right now.
00:16:32.480 And I'm.
00:16:33.100 Well, we need the flaming sword of justice at a certain point.
00:16:35.200 I'm usually the stick approach first.
00:16:37.100 Yeah.
00:16:37.280 So, I'd really like the big stick to come out.
00:16:40.340 Let's see how these hearings begin in really just a couple days.
00:16:44.320 How they start to play out.
00:16:45.800 But I think there needs to be a conversation behind the scenes of, you know, we'd love for you to do the right thing.
00:16:50.340 And if you don't, there are going to be serious consequences.
00:16:52.720 Imagine.
00:16:52.880 Because most of these elected officials, this is one thing that I've noticed about D.C. having been there for way too long.
00:17:00.780 They are experts in self-preservation.
00:17:02.840 Yeah.
00:17:03.200 They want to come back.
00:17:04.260 That's what they care about.
00:17:04.680 Right.
00:17:04.860 They want to come back in two years as a member of the House.
00:17:07.220 They want to come back in six years as a member of the Senate.
00:17:08.980 Let's have a little chit-chat about what your political future looks like if you don't want to actually give me my nominees.
00:17:17.900 Well, especially on the basis of no good reason.
00:17:21.100 On the basis of, like, the most corrupt motives.
00:17:23.920 Pressure from lobbyists to oppose.
00:17:26.040 And I just want to be clear.
00:17:26.900 It's Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard we're talking about.
00:17:28.940 I think you're absolutely right.
00:17:30.180 And they're going to impugn their characters.
00:17:32.960 This is how D.C. has operated for way too long.
00:17:36.120 Tulsi Gabbard has never had a sip of alcohol in her life.
00:17:39.300 They're going to call her a bad person?
00:17:40.940 Really?
00:17:41.200 The corporation, the corporate lobbyists and all of these various interests have way too much say in how a senator actually or a congressman actually operates instead of the people that actually voted them into office.
00:17:54.440 And you and I both know this because the lobbyists are in there every day pressuring, making sure there's a lot of money coming in for the re-election campaign so they can get re-elected, the idea of self-preservation.
00:18:04.720 It's a pretty, I mean, there's a whole host of things wrong with our system today.
00:18:09.320 But this is one of them.
00:18:10.380 The bell that rings that they respond to is not the right bell.
00:18:14.220 It's been over a decade since Edward Snowden, who is a hero, exposed the U.S. government for spying on its citizens.
00:18:21.440 He didn't commit the crime they did, but he, of course, was punished.
00:18:25.320 Now, you would think that the information that he brought to the public would cause permanent Washington to pause, reflect, apologize for violating the Constitution to the United States, the privacy and the rights of American citizens.
00:18:37.180 But that's not what happened.
00:18:38.100 No, Ed Snowden is still in exile.
00:18:41.320 And in fact, just this year, the House of Representatives extended the rights of government agencies to spy on you.
00:18:46.640 This is happening in public.
00:18:48.220 It's infuriating to watch.
00:18:51.040 American citizens have lost, as of today, the battle with their government to have privacy and freedom.
00:18:56.900 You're being watched.
00:18:57.780 So what can you do?
00:18:58.840 Congress is not going to help you.
00:18:59.820 Well, you can actually do something.
00:19:03.660 You can use ExpressVPN.
00:19:05.880 ExpressVPN returns privacy to your life.
00:19:08.780 It's an app that reroutes 100% of what you do online through encrypted channels.

00:20:00.320 So J.D. Vance said something I thought so – I'd never have forgotten it during the election.
00:20:11.160 And he said the Republican Party needs to be like a legit opposition party and needs to oppose the other side.
00:20:16.660 Like we need two parties, okay?
00:20:17.860 We need to be in balance.
00:20:19.000 And one of the things that the other side does – and this is the key to Pelosi.
00:20:23.140 You know, Pelosi is like kind of an idiot, but she's really tough.
00:20:25.560 Yes.
00:20:25.880 Like actually tough.
00:20:26.780 And she should sit people down and just have – you know, daughter of a mafia mayor, like she knows how to do this, from Baltimore.
00:20:32.520 Right.
00:20:33.040 And just like let's be clear about what's going to happen if you do that.
00:20:36.220 And I don't know a single person in the Republican Party who will do that.
00:20:40.100 No, this is what concerns me a little bit about the current Republican leadership in both the House and the Senate of – I wouldn't mind.
00:20:49.620 Politically speaking, I want to make that very clear.
00:20:51.220 Politically speaking, it's okay to break a few legs and just say this is the reality of what's going to happen.
00:20:55.460 There's a lot of moist handshakes in the Republican leadership.
00:20:58.000 So this is a bigger frustration with the Republican Party.
00:21:01.740 People give you power, political power, to use the political power to enact change.
00:21:07.420 I think too many Republicans have come to D.C. and are like, isn't this a lovely experience?
00:21:12.080 It's going to be a great career.
00:21:13.760 We have a lot of careerists who are enjoying the fun career in D.C.
00:21:17.000 And Democrats are like, by God, we have political power.
00:21:20.480 We're going to break you to achieve what we want to achieve to fundamentally change and transform this country.
00:21:26.540 They're religious zealots.
00:21:27.740 And we're all sitting here going, oh, that's kind of mean.
00:21:29.840 We probably shouldn't do that.
00:21:31.500 If you have been given political power, you should freaking use the political power given to you by the American people.
00:21:37.120 Or they might start to question, why did we give you political power in the first place?
00:21:41.500 Because you don't know how to use it.
00:21:43.220 Yeah.
00:21:43.460 So I've watched this like for decades.
00:21:45.540 Right.
00:21:45.660 And it's driving me slowly.
00:21:46.860 It's slowly driving me crazy.
00:21:48.180 But why isn't there like an outside group, like a Super 501C3 of some sort, or C4, I guess, to do this?
00:21:58.240 To say, like, move on.org.
00:22:00.780 It's like, we're going to extract a cost if you don't serve your voters.
00:22:06.560 It's super simple.
00:22:07.600 You got elected on a program.
00:22:09.000 Right.
00:22:09.200 You've ignored the program and the people who voted for the program in favor of lobbyists.
00:22:13.220 I can't do that.
00:22:14.220 You're going to hurt you.
00:22:15.060 You know the RNC is never going to be that.
00:22:18.180 Even though you would like the RNC.
00:22:19.080 Well, the RNC is gone.
00:22:19.740 It doesn't even exist anymore.
00:22:21.000 You and Charlie Kirk have replaced it.
00:22:23.340 So I get it.
00:22:24.460 We need a significant, and it's not minor.
00:22:28.140 It's not tens of millions.
00:22:29.380 Right?
00:22:29.600 You're talking with hundreds of millions every election cycle to have a proper enforcement mechanism of, you said you were going to do this.
00:22:36.840 This is what the people voted for.
00:22:38.240 If you do not toe the line on this, we will find a competent, credible primary candidate for you.
00:22:44.880 And he or she will be well-funded, and we will crush you.
00:22:49.320 That doesn't exist right now.
00:22:51.200 Well, and it's not just that.
00:22:52.540 I mean, I look at people, including some in leadership, who clearly have had a hard conversation with someone who's like, we've got your online porn records, or we know who your boyfriend is, or, you know, you got wasted on a codel to Croatia and acted like a pig.
00:23:05.840 And we know that.
00:23:06.540 I mean, clearly, these are people who are being blackmailed.
00:23:09.700 Like, I can think of one in particular who's clearly being blackmailed.
00:23:12.380 And I'm against blackmail, but I'm also in favor of serving your constituents, of restoring democracy to the United States.
00:23:20.180 People vote for something.
00:23:20.900 They should get it.
00:23:22.120 And they're not getting it.
00:23:23.600 And they never get it.
00:23:24.580 And I'm just—
00:23:24.980 The republic is in the balance.
00:23:26.680 Yes.
00:23:26.900 I would make the argument—I mean, one of the arguments I make in American Leviathan is we're not really a constitutional republic anymore.
00:23:32.740 Do you think?
00:23:33.640 We got a shot at restoring it.
00:23:35.880 The republic is at stake.
00:23:37.520 Freedom is at stake.
00:23:38.540 Liberty is at stake.
00:23:39.360 The future of your kids, your grandkids, future generations is at stake.
00:23:42.780 We are in a cold political war.
00:23:44.200 We have been in a cold political war for decades with the un-American left.
00:23:49.400 At some point, are you going to figure out the reality of what time it is, Republicans in D.C.,
00:23:56.200 before it's too late.
00:23:58.840 And if you understand where we're at in our nation's history and the singular moment that we have and what is at stake,
00:24:07.080 I would hope they would find it somewhere within themselves to go to the mats and to fight with everything they have for their future,
00:24:13.220 for their children's future, for their grandchildren's future,
00:24:15.500 and understand it might make you feel a little queasy in the moment, like this is really hardcore.
00:24:21.480 We're using some pretty brutal tactics.
00:24:23.320 Freedom, future of the country, there are a lot of things at stake.
00:24:28.240 And not only for this country, for the world.
00:24:32.120 I mean, think about who we are for the rest of the world, the United States.
00:24:35.820 We are a beacon of hope.
00:24:36.860 We are really the world's last great hope.
00:24:39.360 We are, if we fall, there's nobody coming for us.
00:24:42.060 That's for sure.
00:24:43.220 There's absolutely no one that will come and save America if it falls.
00:24:46.840 We are the hope of the world.
00:24:47.620 We're the hope of the world.
00:24:48.180 Even as we decline, we're even more important, I think, as the last free place.
00:24:52.700 We have to think of the stakes not only for our country, but for the world as well.
00:24:55.560 I agree.
00:24:56.480 Dear God, find a backbone and understand if it's street-style brawling tactics that are necessary to win.
00:25:05.560 I think it's justified in doing that because, for God's sake, they just tried to abuse our entire legal system
00:25:12.520 and justice system to take out Donald Trump, quite frankly, others as well.
00:25:17.500 Honestly, if they had won, I think they would have gone after some of us that are not in D.C.,
00:25:22.160 but are considered somewhat prominent in the conservative movement.
00:25:24.800 No, I told people, I told my staff, and I told others that I was working with this last year
00:25:30.080 and, you know, pretty significant project.
00:25:32.420 There is a sense of urgency coming from me, specifically,
00:25:36.620 and there should be urgency from other leaders of organizations because if they win again,
00:25:41.180 the next people that are going to show trial and lawfare are us.
00:25:45.280 So we better freaking win, and if we don't win, we've got problems.
00:25:50.440 I don't think that's crazy at all.
00:25:52.780 No, I don't, and I think we actually have to have that conversation about where these people on the left are.
00:25:59.900 They are deeply un-American.
00:26:02.720 They are antithetical to freedom.
00:26:04.760 They are antithetical to liberty.
00:26:06.720 If they had the political power to do whatever they wanted to us, I think they would.
00:26:10.880 I don't think I'm overstating that at all.
00:26:13.680 And so people have asked, how do you think we get back to normal with this un-American left in this country?
00:26:18.380 And my argument to them has been we beat them into political submission
00:26:21.780 and send them into the political wilderness for generations.
00:26:24.260 That's the only way you get back to normal.
00:26:26.060 But you have to frame the entire, you have to build the entire conservative movement around political power
00:26:33.960 with the right people, achieving political power, maintaining political power,
00:26:38.020 and keeping it for long enough that you can actually achieve all the reform
00:26:41.640 while putting them into the political wilderness.
00:26:44.860 And I don't think we're actually organized or structured that way at all right now.
00:26:47.840 I do think a lot of meaningful reform will come from outside the party, as it has on the left.
00:26:58.820 They've been really effective and thoughtful in building up outside organizations that fund their party
00:27:07.460 and keep it aligned, keep it on the track that they think it should be on.
00:27:12.660 Of course, I find their goals repugnant, but I think they've been very clever.
00:27:16.640 I'm a great admirer of the left in regards to achieving political power
00:27:20.020 and how they structure themselves and their, how they have structured themselves to achieve political power
00:27:26.560 for all the wrong reasons.
00:27:27.780 All their policy ideas are terrible for this country.
00:27:30.360 But they have structured themselves to achieve that.
00:27:33.360 And in fact, I can, based off all the numbers and statistics I've seen,
00:27:36.980 the left is in the minority in this country, and yet they have an undue influence in politics
00:27:41.640 and the various institutions because they have structured themselves to achieve power
00:27:46.120 in the institutions and politically how they've invested their time and money into doing that.
00:27:51.520 We, on the other hand, I mean, I know some people love a good white paper
00:27:56.440 and like some of the things that the think tanks do.
00:27:58.940 We are not structured correctly to achieve and maintain political power.
00:28:01.920 And I think that's one of the things that I hope that I can achieve
00:28:05.460 over the next four, five, six, seven, eight years, whatever, however long it takes
00:28:09.600 for people to understand if we do the right things in the field, in the various states,
00:28:15.480 we can achieve and maintain political power for years to come.
00:28:19.320 But you actually have to be doing the right things.
00:28:22.060 Yeah, and have the right goals.
00:28:23.980 I mean, power is never an end in itself.
00:28:25.980 It's, you know, it's harnessed in service of fighting corruption
00:28:30.260 and improving the lives of the people who live here.
00:28:32.180 And restoring a representative democracy.
00:28:35.260 So with the caveat that in the end, all politics is disappointing
00:28:38.380 because the point of life is not power or politics.
00:28:41.060 It's, you know, it's God in my opinion.
00:28:44.000 Yeah, it is.
00:28:44.380 But you're always going to be disappointed the closer you get to the political process,
00:28:49.040 the more horrified you're going to be that you grew up around it.
00:28:51.340 I should say, I mean, your father was-
00:28:53.040 Yeah, he was in the house for 10 years.
00:28:54.620 Yeah, famous congressman.
00:28:56.200 So you know the system better than anybody.
00:28:58.080 And I think people who don't know it, once they get a glimpse of it,
00:29:00.260 they're like, oh, that's repulsive.
00:29:01.320 I want to go back home.
00:29:03.620 So like, it's just inherently disappointing.
00:29:05.780 It's where ignorance is bliss comes in handy.
00:29:07.860 Yeah, it's true.
00:29:09.540 But it doesn't mean that one outcome is not better than the other.
00:29:13.000 One outcome is better than the other.
00:29:14.140 So with that in mind, now that we've lowered the bar a little bit, let's just start.
00:29:21.860 What are you excited about?
00:29:23.800 What can this administration achieve in the next couple of years?
00:29:26.640 What can they achieve?
00:29:29.760 What will they achieve?
00:29:30.500 What I hope they will achieve.
00:29:33.160 I want Donald Trump.
00:29:34.440 I'm not interested in trimming this government.
00:29:37.260 I'm not interested in making it more efficient.
00:29:39.880 Yeah.
00:29:39.940 I'm interested in shattering this administrative state into a million pieces.
00:29:44.120 Yes.
00:29:44.400 I think Donald Trump has figured out who the enemy is over the last, call it nine years,
00:29:49.940 in which I think he truly showed up in D.C. January of 2017.
00:29:54.540 As the duly elected representative, president of the American people, shows up in D.C. and goes,
00:30:00.780 I'm the duly elected president.
00:30:02.280 I get to decide a lot of the foreign and domestic policy.
00:30:05.600 And ran into a system of government that said, yeah, we don't think so.
00:30:09.380 We think we decide.
00:30:10.600 And I think it was a startling, it was a startling moment for him when he realized,
00:30:14.780 I thought we were a constitutional republic, representative democracy.
00:30:18.320 And then folks in D.C. are like, no, we're not really that.
00:30:21.600 We're an administrative state.
00:30:22.820 The unelected bureaucrats and their allies, we're the ones that actually decide these things.
00:30:26.140 A lot of these things were settled years ago.
00:30:28.240 Foreign policy, for example.
00:30:29.640 This is the crazy part to me.
00:30:31.040 Donald Trump's, one of his great sins, was showing up and thinking, I want an election.
00:30:36.960 People voted for change.
00:30:38.060 One of them was different approach in foreign policy.
00:30:40.760 So we're going to actually enact that.
00:30:42.280 Like, no, we already settled that years ago.
00:30:44.280 You don't get to decide that at all.
00:30:45.800 It's already been decided by the smart people of the State Department, like Victoria Nuland.
00:30:51.500 And I think that, for him, was a moment where he realized, we have a real problem.
00:30:56.020 And then, of course, he became a target of his own government.
00:30:59.540 The DOJ and the FBI and all these people trying to take out the duly elected president of the United States
00:31:04.080 with fake FISA warrants and fake dossiers and all this stuff.
00:31:08.160 And he realized, we have a serious problem here.
00:31:11.920 So, leading up to now, and then the four years of lawfare, in which, on the most spurious of charges,
00:31:19.780 they literally, I don't know the exact figure, but I have to guess it was hundreds of millions
00:31:23.980 they soaked out of his campaign in regards to legal fees.
00:31:26.680 And not only, like, trying to destroy him as a person, but also just suck cash out of him.
00:31:31.100 I think he's coming back this month and being sworn in for another term and fully understanding
00:31:37.920 we have a form of government that is running this country that has nothing to do with the Constitutional Republic.
00:31:43.780 So, I hope, I sincerely hope that he understands who the enemy is, that he has to go at them.
00:31:51.000 They've already declared war on him.
00:31:52.600 This is not about him declaring war on the administrative state.
00:31:54.920 They declared war on him years ago.
00:31:58.000 And it's him responding in kind and going, we are not going to take this sitting down.
00:32:04.520 And I hope on day one, I've got a few thoughts on this, I'm glad you asked,
00:32:08.960 that he would go out and fire hundreds of thousands of federal employees day one,
00:32:15.100 GS-12s, GS-13s, just pick out random names, fire them.
00:32:21.640 Federal employee unions are going to sue back, stays.
00:32:24.400 They're going to go back and forth through the courts to get to the Supreme Court,
00:32:28.020 probably 18 months, two years, to ask a fundamental question.
00:32:31.940 Does the head of the executive branch, the duly elected president of the United States,
00:32:36.120 the Article II branch head, get to hire and fire whoever he wants to inside of this branch?
00:32:42.420 Is the question, is it yes or no?
00:32:45.000 And I would hope this Supreme Court says yes.
00:32:47.480 And at that point, Donald Trump becomes the demolition man for the administrative state,
00:32:51.660 because that's where most of the administrative state resides,
00:32:53.780 is inside the Article II branch, the executive branch of our government.
00:32:57.560 Donald Trump goes for broke and he starts firing people.
00:33:00.680 My hope is that he's also told some of these new nominees that are going to be secretaries,
00:33:05.940 you're going to go in and on day one announce,
00:33:09.480 I'm Linda McMahon.
00:33:11.360 I'm the new secretary of education.
00:33:12.700 I'm going to be the last secretary of education,
00:33:14.920 because by the time I'm done here, we are going to shut down this department.
00:33:18.800 And then on top of that, we're going to not only shut down this building,
00:33:23.180 we're going to implode it, we're going to raise it to the ground,
00:33:25.560 and we're going to build freedom parks over this.
00:33:28.360 I mean, that is the approach that has to be taken by Trump day one
00:33:33.260 of going right at the administrative state.
00:33:34.780 I'm not interested in making it more efficient.
00:33:36.920 I'm not interested in cutting regulations.
00:33:38.820 I'm not interested in cutting spending.
00:33:40.760 Those are all in effect.
00:33:43.500 The cause is the state.
00:33:45.080 You have to shatter it into a million pieces.
00:33:47.940 So that's my biggest hope,
00:33:49.860 and I think he actually has the moral and political courage to actually do that.
00:33:54.420 My hope and prayer, quite frankly,
00:33:57.160 is that all of his various nominees have the exact same political and moral courage
00:34:01.640 to do the same thing, because that is the issue.
00:34:03.840 I'm telling you, Tucker, every issue that we are experiencing today in this country,
00:34:09.440 in D.C. specifically, but in some ways in other aspects of the country,
00:34:13.440 comes from a deeply unconstitutional administrative state
00:34:16.820 that I think has nothing to do with advancing or promoting the interests of the American people.
00:34:22.400 That's the fight.
00:34:23.060 That is the issue.
00:34:23.860 That is the thing.
00:34:26.000 It's a big ask of a cabinet secretary,
00:34:29.380 because in cutting your staff, you cut your power.
00:34:33.700 That's my concern.
00:34:34.820 Yeah.
00:34:35.420 Capture.
00:34:36.200 Right.
00:34:36.540 No, my concern is that these secretaries,
00:34:38.160 these new nominees who are going to be confirmed,
00:34:41.060 the secretary is going to walk in and go,
00:34:42.540 oh my gosh, I'm secretary of this department.
00:34:44.460 Isn't this wonderful?
00:34:45.280 And then how can I be as effective as possible
00:34:47.020 as the new secretary of this various department
00:34:48.960 and all the power that I have to actually enact change?
00:34:52.760 No, no.
00:34:53.100 The whole point is for you to make this thing go away,
00:34:55.140 to make it end, to make it cease to exist.
00:34:59.500 I have questions about some of them.
00:35:03.960 Doge.
00:35:06.560 Not part, these are not federal employees.
00:35:10.060 Right.
00:35:10.700 Elon Musk, Vivek, Ramoswamy,
00:35:12.200 they're not going to become federal employees,
00:35:13.580 but they're going to oversee what they're saying
00:35:16.780 is the most transformative effort ever to shrink government,
00:35:22.920 to do to the federal government what Elon did to Twitter.
00:35:26.180 I hope so.
00:35:27.280 How will that work?
00:35:29.260 I think they're going to run most of it through OMB.
00:35:31.340 Right.
00:35:31.740 Right, they're going to run it through Ross and his team
00:35:33.240 and advise strategies, you know, plans.
00:35:41.060 I'll be completely honest.
00:35:42.540 When they say we're going to declare victory
00:35:44.040 and say we're done in 18 months on July 4th of 2026,
00:35:48.620 that's insane.
00:35:50.740 Good to have a deadline, though.
00:35:52.000 It's nice to have a deadline.
00:35:52.980 It's also an insane one.
00:35:54.320 Why?
00:35:55.460 The administrative state started 112 years ago.
00:35:58.960 It has been building.
00:36:00.100 It has got so many reinforcing loops
00:36:01.940 inside of this massive Leviathan.
00:36:05.340 You're not going to absolutely...
00:36:06.960 First of all,
00:36:07.540 I don't think you can get the fundamental question answered
00:36:09.660 about does the head of the executive branch
00:36:11.340 get to hire and fire whoever he wants to in 18 months.
00:36:13.580 I think it'll probably be two years.
00:36:14.860 I've actually talked with Sean Davis,
00:36:16.480 who's a good buddy.
00:36:17.600 He's like, dude,
00:36:17.960 I think you're lucky if it's answered in two years.
00:36:19.620 I think there's some fundamental questions
00:36:21.260 and things that have to be answered and done
00:36:22.960 that are going to take some time.
00:36:24.560 I don't think you can declare victory in 18 months.
00:36:27.860 This has been 100 plus years in the making.
00:36:30.420 And there are so many people
00:36:31.680 with so many vested interests in the status quo.
00:36:34.440 Various people in government,
00:36:37.140 outside of government,
00:36:38.180 the entire system,
00:36:39.520 they're going to fight tooth and nail
00:36:41.780 to make sure that this system of government
00:36:43.860 does not go away.
00:36:45.160 So you're going to be up against...
00:36:46.060 I think we're going to be involved.
00:36:47.220 If Donald Trump goes down the path
00:36:48.980 of I'm going to destroy the administrative state,
00:36:51.820 it could be that the previous nine years
00:36:55.600 of the craziness that we have seen
00:36:57.020 as a warm-up act
00:36:58.140 from maybe one of the coldest political wars
00:37:00.820 we'll see in D.C. ever.
00:37:03.560 Because of what's at stake.
00:37:04.780 I mean, you're talking about regime change politics here.
00:37:07.720 Where, I mean,
00:37:08.680 two very different governing philosophies
00:37:10.640 of how you approach government
00:37:11.760 on a whole host of fronts
00:37:12.720 from basic human rights
00:37:13.960 to how government actually operates.
00:37:16.560 And there are a lot of people
00:37:17.560 with vested interests
00:37:18.340 in maintaining the status quo
00:37:19.600 of the administrative state.
00:37:21.600 And they're going to fight tooth and nail
00:37:23.480 to make sure that it doesn't go away.
00:37:24.800 So I think in some ways,
00:37:26.700 I love the fact that he has put brilliant minds
00:37:29.860 like Elon and Vivek to do this
00:37:32.620 with an outsider's approach.
00:37:35.040 I just don't think it's going to happen.
00:37:37.100 I don't think meaningful fundamental change
00:37:40.140 that is long-term and lasting
00:37:42.400 is going to take place in 18 months.
00:37:44.540 And I'm being realistic
00:37:45.740 having been in D.C. for 25 years.
00:37:48.220 Well, 2024 is a wild year.
00:37:50.040 Who knows what 2025 will bring?
00:37:52.260 But one thing a lot of people have realized
00:37:54.380 is that, remember, thoughts and prayers?
00:37:55.980 People made fun of that.
00:37:56.680 No one makes fun of that anymore.
00:37:58.300 Prayer actually works.
00:37:59.420 It's just a fact.
00:38:00.240 Every society has recognized that
00:38:01.620 from the beginning of time until recently.
00:38:03.800 And people are starting to realize,
00:38:05.500 oh, wait, prayer is essential every day.
00:38:09.100 So if you want to start something new
00:38:11.160 that's good for your soul,
00:38:12.180 easy to maintain,
00:38:13.200 and will last for the rest of your life,
00:38:15.820 check out Hallow.
00:38:16.820 It is the world's number one prayer app.
00:38:19.580 I heard about it from my wife,
00:38:21.300 not just once,
00:38:22.160 but every night at dinner
00:38:23.260 for the past six months.
00:38:25.620 She loves it
00:38:26.440 because it's easy to use
00:38:28.960 and it is life-changing.
00:38:30.140 It builds a daily habit of prayer
00:38:32.080 and allows you bit by bit
00:38:34.420 to grow closer to God
00:38:35.620 every day of 2025.
00:38:37.860 There are over 10,000 guided prayers
00:38:40.380 and meditations on Hallow.
00:38:42.140 You can check out the daily scripture readings,
00:38:43.820 nightly sleep prayers,
00:38:45.220 and a daily minute if you're short on time.
00:38:47.180 There is all kinds of stuff on Hallow
00:38:50.280 all designed to get you to grow closer to God.
00:38:53.700 So start the year off right
00:38:54.640 by putting your relationship with God first
00:38:56.300 and pray with the help of Hallow.
00:38:59.060 You get three free months of Hallow
00:39:00.820 when you sign up at Hallow.com slash Tucker.
00:39:03.500 That's Hallow.com slash Tucker.
00:39:06.440 That is sincerely endorsed
00:39:07.900 from personal experience.
00:39:23.600 They've, both of them,
00:39:25.260 as you said, are smart and capable.
00:39:27.060 Very smart, very capable.
00:39:28.660 Yes, generational.
00:39:29.520 Yes.
00:39:29.940 And both have put their prestige on the line.
00:39:33.500 Yep.
00:39:34.440 So they're highly motivated
00:39:35.820 to show results
00:39:38.600 by July 4th, 2026.
00:39:41.240 Yeah, but I don't want cheap victories.
00:39:43.480 I don't want them to go,
00:39:44.780 we've cut, I mean, first of all,
00:39:46.200 it'd be great if they cut
00:39:47.320 X number of dollars of spending
00:39:48.840 and cut X, you know,
00:39:50.080 hundreds or thousands of regulations.
00:39:52.200 Wonderful, wonderful victories.
00:39:54.640 Again, those are the effects.
00:39:56.760 The cause is the state.
00:39:59.620 All of this stuff that we see
00:40:00.740 in the out-of-control spending,
00:40:02.200 the out-of-control growth of government,
00:40:03.960 all of these things
00:40:04.940 are because of the administrative state.
00:40:06.660 It's in the DNA of it.
00:40:07.740 Right.
00:40:08.460 No, I mean, the progressives
00:40:09.820 who founded the administrative state
00:40:11.320 viewed the state as salvation.
00:40:14.560 Salvation was to come
00:40:15.440 into every aspect of your life.
00:40:17.020 It exists for its own benefit
00:40:18.340 and it grows.
00:40:18.940 It's in the DNA.
00:40:19.920 Exactly.
00:40:20.120 The DNA of the administrative state
00:40:22.040 is perpetual growth.
00:40:23.120 So, if it continues to grow
00:40:25.880 and you're just trimming right here
00:40:27.280 and like, oh, we declared victory,
00:40:28.520 it'll continue, it'll grow right back.
00:40:30.620 You have to cut down the tree.
00:40:32.600 The branches will keep growing.
00:40:33.720 So, I don't want them
00:40:34.320 to just trim branches.
00:40:35.980 I need them to tear up
00:40:37.500 by root the administrative state
00:40:40.240 so that it doesn't return
00:40:41.680 and continue to grow.
00:40:42.460 A quick way to pair it,
00:40:44.380 I think, pretty significantly
00:40:46.080 would be to cancel
00:40:47.660 the security clearances
00:40:48.940 of the contractors who work
00:40:51.260 because the federal government is,
00:40:53.220 you know, its employees
00:40:53.920 are just a percentage
00:40:55.160 of its overall workforce.
00:40:56.640 A lot of them are contractors.
00:40:58.160 Twice as, last statistics I saw there,
00:41:00.140 about twice as many federal contractors
00:41:02.620 as there are federal employees.
00:41:04.100 Exactly.
00:41:04.980 And a huge, all of the contractors
00:41:07.140 attached to the national security state,
00:41:08.740 which comprises the entire economy
00:41:10.320 of, say, Northern Virginia.
00:41:11.580 Right.
00:41:12.460 Where I'm from.
00:41:13.200 Where you're from.
00:41:13.800 Yes.
00:41:14.000 Exactly.
00:41:15.540 These are the richest zip codes
00:41:16.900 in the country
00:41:17.300 because they're all federal contractors.
00:41:19.040 And you could end
00:41:20.880 their employment tomorrow
00:41:22.840 by canceling the security clearances.
00:41:24.640 I mean, they can't work there
00:41:25.840 without security clearance.
00:41:26.680 They can't enter the building.
00:41:28.480 I am for all of the above
00:41:30.200 in whatever approach it takes
00:41:31.740 in the short term
00:41:32.340 to stop the madness.
00:41:33.780 I talk about this a little bit
00:41:34.880 in the book where
00:41:35.320 you've got system dynamics
00:41:37.000 and inside of this massive
00:41:38.260 sprawling system,
00:41:39.120 you've got these reinforcing loops
00:41:40.400 that continue to grow
00:41:41.940 and grow and compound.
00:41:42.960 It's almost like compounding interest
00:41:43.960 and then just explode
00:41:44.940 in size and strength.
00:41:46.320 Yeah, I think you've got to start
00:41:47.140 stopping these little reinforcing loops
00:41:48.640 like revoking security clearances.
00:41:51.560 So I think there's a whole variety
00:41:52.880 of approaches.
00:41:53.240 You're talking about your book,
00:41:53.580 American Leviathan.
00:41:54.400 American Leviathan.
00:41:55.200 Leviathan's a sea monster.
00:41:56.720 It is, but also the second definition
00:41:58.300 is a massive sprawling bureaucracy
00:42:00.720 that borders on totalitarianism.
00:42:03.220 Yes, but the Leviathan is described in,
00:42:05.600 I think the Old Testament.
00:42:06.020 Job and Isaiah.
00:42:07.300 Right.
00:42:07.720 Yeah.
00:42:08.260 In the Old Testament, yes,
00:42:09.220 as some sort of not quite defined
00:42:13.180 but terrifying sea monster.
00:42:14.320 Yeah, quasi-demonic sea monster
00:42:16.920 that God eventually conquers,
00:42:19.900 that Yahweh eventually conquers.
00:42:21.180 But the second definition
00:42:22.780 is definitely about a massive
00:42:24.320 sprawling bureaucracy
00:42:25.180 that tends to be authoritarian
00:42:26.780 and totalitarian.
00:42:28.280 And that's what we have.
00:42:29.500 I mean, this is the one thing
00:42:30.380 that I just,
00:42:31.920 it kind of started dawning on me
00:42:33.520 years ago.
00:42:35.220 Like there's a serious problem
00:42:36.420 with how D.C. operates.
00:42:37.920 I mean, I was at the White House,
00:42:38.940 George W. Bush,
00:42:39.560 don't hate me for this.
00:42:40.940 I wrote for him,
00:42:42.500 which was a really interesting experience.
00:42:44.360 You know, whenever you get
00:42:45.200 to write for a president,
00:42:45.980 he's signing your stuff,
00:42:46.680 that's awesome.
00:42:47.620 While my dad was in the House
00:42:48.840 voting against all of his
00:42:49.760 major pieces of legislation.
00:42:51.520 Yeah.
00:42:52.540 Which was pretty,
00:42:53.520 when you go,
00:42:54.160 when you're young
00:42:54.660 and you go to D.C.
00:42:55.600 and you're kind of new to it,
00:42:56.740 you think all Republicans
00:42:57.500 are created equal.
00:42:58.460 All the red guys are good guys
00:43:00.100 and all the blue guys
00:43:00.740 are bad guys.
00:43:01.880 And then you start to realize,
00:43:03.260 like I said earlier,
00:43:03.900 not all Republicans
00:43:04.920 are created equal.
00:43:05.860 There's definitely
00:43:06.600 like different shades
00:43:08.000 along the way.
00:43:09.760 And I remember my dad
00:43:12.260 having to take
00:43:12.920 some pretty strong stances
00:43:14.020 in the House
00:43:15.060 and voting against
00:43:15.960 a lot of these
00:43:17.240 major initiatives
00:43:17.940 from George W. Bush
00:43:18.860 because he strongly believed
00:43:20.720 they were not conservative
00:43:21.800 at all in the least bit.
00:43:24.000 In fact,
00:43:24.320 one of the biggest ones
00:43:24.920 was Medicare Part D.
00:43:25.980 This is one of the,
00:43:27.140 my dad is...
00:43:28.220 The prescription drug benefit.
00:43:29.100 Yes.
00:43:29.500 The prescription drug benefit,
00:43:30.920 I think it was 2003,
00:43:32.700 right before the 2004 election.
00:43:34.160 They really wanted it
00:43:34.940 because they felt
00:43:35.460 that it would help
00:43:35.860 with the senior vote.
00:43:38.100 And there were about 24,
00:43:41.480 about two dozen holdouts
00:43:42.640 in the House
00:43:43.380 in the Republican caucus
00:43:44.300 that said,
00:43:44.640 we're not going to vote for this.
00:43:45.600 We were just not going to...
00:43:46.660 They brought him down
00:43:47.100 to the White House.
00:43:48.280 They had Dick Cheney
00:43:49.340 and all the senior White House staff
00:43:50.500 kind of have a little
00:43:51.120 chit-chat with them.
00:43:52.360 They all came back
00:43:53.160 because they were still
00:43:53.600 not voting for this.
00:43:54.460 And then Bush was overseas
00:43:55.620 and started lobbying them directly.
00:43:57.800 And I remember him calling my dad
00:43:59.080 and saying,
00:43:59.300 I really need this vote.
00:44:00.240 And my dad was like,
00:44:00.760 you know,
00:44:00.920 you're doing a great job
00:44:01.580 representing us overseas, sir.
00:44:03.560 Jim, I really need this vote.
00:44:04.460 I'm not giving you this vote.
00:44:05.520 Click.
00:44:06.580 That was it.
00:44:08.340 It was the end of the conversation.
00:44:10.360 And yeah,
00:44:11.500 my dad fighting tooth and nail
00:44:13.720 to try and prevent that
00:44:15.200 from passing it actually
00:44:16.000 passed by one vote
00:44:17.020 because they kept
00:44:18.540 the House floor open
00:44:19.860 for an additional,
00:44:20.920 I don't know how many hours
00:44:21.660 and eventually got someone
00:44:23.220 to switch their vote
00:44:23.960 in the like 3 a.m.,
00:44:25.440 4 a.m. hour.
00:44:27.340 This was a Karl Rove project.
00:44:28.540 It was.
00:44:29.460 Yeah.
00:44:30.240 You realize
00:44:31.020 compassionate conservatism
00:44:32.420 is just another name
00:44:34.360 for big government.
00:44:35.540 And this is...
00:44:36.020 So this is the other thing too.
00:44:37.100 I make this point...
00:44:38.960 Remember when people
00:44:39.500 treated Karl Rove
00:44:40.180 like a genius?
00:44:41.020 Yes.
00:44:42.140 The thing...
00:44:43.160 The thing that...
00:44:44.140 How low are your standards
00:44:44.920 of Karl's a genius?
00:44:45.840 The thing that's...
00:44:48.040 That Donald Trump, again,
00:44:49.640 and why he's viewed
00:44:50.240 as such an existential threat
00:44:51.480 by permanent D.C.
00:44:52.400 is he rejects the premise.
00:44:53.860 Yeah.
00:44:55.220 Nixon and Reagan
00:44:56.520 rejected the premise
00:44:57.480 that the administrative state
00:44:58.440 was legitimate.
00:44:59.760 And I think actually Watergate
00:45:01.140 is really more a story of that
00:45:03.000 than anything else.
00:45:05.280 I mean, when you go back
00:45:05.940 and look at the story
00:45:06.500 of Watergate,
00:45:07.360 Richard Nixon
00:45:07.800 had just won 500...
00:45:09.680 520 electoral votes.
00:45:12.260 Biggest victory
00:45:12.860 in American history.
00:45:13.380 49 states.
00:45:14.400 Won by 20 million votes
00:45:15.420 in the popular vote.
00:45:16.220 It was massive.
00:45:16.960 And he talked very clearly
00:45:17.920 about what he intended
00:45:18.860 to do in the second term
00:45:19.820 in restructuring
00:45:21.040 and dismantling
00:45:21.660 the administrative state.
00:45:22.940 And then lo and behold,
00:45:24.380 Watergate happens
00:45:25.160 and there's a lot of questions
00:45:26.080 about what actually went down.
00:45:27.000 Not questions,
00:45:27.420 there are answers.
00:45:27.940 The deputy director
00:45:28.660 of the FBI
00:45:29.140 was deep throat.
00:45:30.560 Yeah, Mark Felt.
00:45:31.320 Ghost was corporate propagandists,
00:45:33.500 Woodward and Bernstein.
00:45:34.880 And Woodward was
00:45:35.660 a former naval intel officer.
00:45:37.400 And uses them
00:45:37.960 as the mouthpiece
00:45:38.580 to then take out
00:45:39.220 the duly elected
00:45:39.780 president of the United States
00:45:40.420 who was an existential threat
00:45:41.480 to the administrative state.
00:45:42.380 Flip side of the coins,
00:45:44.000 Russiagate.
00:45:44.760 Same thing.
00:45:45.760 Because the first Republican president
00:45:47.420 since Reagan
00:45:48.240 to reject the premise
00:45:49.240 that the administrative state
00:45:50.580 is legitimate
00:45:51.040 was Donald Trump.
00:45:52.280 George W. Bush,
00:45:53.400 George H. W. Bush,
00:45:54.300 George W. Bush were like,
00:45:55.840 we're okay with it
00:45:56.700 as long as we get to run it.
00:45:58.200 And this is what always
00:45:58.760 worries me a little bit
00:45:59.480 about Republicans
00:46:00.260 who are like,
00:46:00.760 well, it's okay
00:46:01.660 as long as we're running it.
00:46:03.040 No, it's a poisonous tree
00:46:04.860 with poisonous fruit.
00:46:06.520 Can I say,
00:46:07.060 you cannot reform it.
00:46:08.400 Richard Nixon
00:46:08.960 should have held,
00:46:10.320 I mean,
00:46:10.560 he was an institutionalist
00:46:12.000 in a lot of ways.
00:46:12.600 Nixon,
00:46:12.880 he was like too responsible
00:46:14.020 for his own good.
00:46:14.680 But if he had just
00:46:15.320 held a primetime
00:46:17.060 news conference live
00:46:18.780 and said,
00:46:19.920 let me tell you
00:46:20.300 what's actually going on here.
00:46:21.940 CIA and FBI
00:46:23.240 have colluded
00:46:24.640 to kick me out
00:46:25.600 because I'm a threat
00:46:26.840 to permanent Washington
00:46:28.120 institutional power.
00:46:29.100 And that's just a fact.
00:46:30.020 And here are some details
00:46:30.940 that you might like to know,
00:46:31.940 you know,
00:46:33.100 that five out of six
00:46:34.120 of the Watergate burglars
00:46:35.000 were actually CIA employees.
00:46:36.580 Yeah, exactly.
00:46:37.540 And the guy,
00:46:38.160 this reporter
00:46:39.100 from the Washington Post
00:46:40.160 has actually
00:46:40.800 worked in the White House.
00:46:42.980 He was sent over
00:46:43.500 by the Pentagon
00:46:44.140 to work in the White House
00:46:45.120 as a naval intel officer
00:46:46.520 two years ago.
00:46:47.940 This guy's not a reporter.
00:46:49.240 Bob Woodward's not a reporter.
00:46:50.840 When you look back.
00:46:51.520 It's also fake.
00:46:52.400 Yeah, when you look back.
00:46:53.080 Why didn't Nixon do that?
00:46:54.100 I don't know.
00:46:54.380 But that shows you
00:46:56.420 who Donald Trump is
00:46:58.300 as a person.
00:46:59.000 Right.
00:46:59.180 No, you're right.
00:46:59.940 I mean, Nixon
00:47:00.520 Nixon could have done that.
00:47:01.840 Yeah.
00:47:02.220 He didn't.
00:47:03.020 Donald Trump
00:47:03.540 basically has.
00:47:05.020 No, he has.
00:47:05.280 No, no, no.
00:47:06.220 That's not the truth
00:47:07.160 of what's taking place.
00:47:08.020 No, you're right.
00:47:08.780 And he stood up
00:47:09.820 and he said
00:47:10.480 this is
00:47:11.760 completely politically motivated.
00:47:14.500 They're trying to take me out
00:47:15.400 because I'm a threat to them.
00:47:16.740 That's such a smart
00:47:17.880 description
00:47:19.520 of the difference
00:47:20.620 between
00:47:21.120 Donald Trump
00:47:22.040 and Richard Nixon
00:47:22.760 is that Trump said aloud
00:47:24.360 what was actually happening
00:47:25.520 and I think that's
00:47:26.720 why they tried to assassinate him
00:47:27.960 in Butler, Pennsylvania
00:47:28.740 among other places.
00:47:30.080 So,
00:47:31.060 thank you for that.
00:47:33.100 Let me ask about
00:47:34.020 something you alluded to
00:47:35.060 which is
00:47:35.600 Can I say something
00:47:36.460 really quick though?
00:47:37.100 Of course, please.
00:47:39.520 The amount of courage
00:47:40.480 that it simply took
00:47:41.220 to say something out loud
00:47:42.320 that people would consider
00:47:43.440 verboten.
00:47:44.540 Yeah.
00:47:44.880 That's part of Donald Trump's
00:47:46.380 great power.
00:47:48.680 He'll say stuff out loud
00:47:49.620 to people
00:47:49.880 that you shouldn't say that
00:47:50.740 or you can't be saying that
00:47:52.760 but he needs to say
00:47:53.920 and he should say it
00:47:54.760 because it's situations
00:47:55.820 like this
00:47:56.340 where he has the ability
00:47:57.180 to say something
00:47:57.560 and sometimes
00:47:58.420 you know,
00:48:00.020 he says things
00:48:00.560 that maybe are not
00:48:01.380 the most helpful
00:48:02.120 but a lot of times
00:48:03.120 he says things out loud
00:48:04.620 that in the past
00:48:06.100 people would have said
00:48:06.780 you can't say that.
00:48:09.160 But it does raise
00:48:09.760 the question
00:48:10.060 like why can't you
00:48:10.820 I know, why can't you?
00:48:11.940 Why has no one else
00:48:12.360 said that?
00:48:12.920 Right.
00:48:13.020 Why has no one ever
00:48:13.900 explained what the UFO
00:48:15.120 program is about
00:48:16.060 or who killed Kennedy
00:48:17.560 or what happened
00:48:18.120 on 9-11
00:48:18.480 like just the obvious things
00:48:19.780 nobody
00:48:20.080 why is no other president
00:48:22.320 not that Trump
00:48:22.920 has revealed the truth
00:48:23.960 about any of those things
00:48:24.620 but hopefully someday soon.
00:48:26.300 Yeah, but I think
00:48:26.840 we're getting closer
00:48:27.760 just to knowing
00:48:28.480 what the government's
00:48:29.100 been doing
00:48:29.520 for the past 80 years
00:48:30.380 but you have to wonder
00:48:32.160 about all the other presidents
00:48:33.240 like the amount of things
00:48:35.080 that every American president
00:48:36.760 has not said
00:48:37.840 Right.
00:48:38.480 The amount of things
00:48:39.020 that people just
00:48:39.460 very obviously lied about
00:48:40.560 like why?
00:48:41.560 What are they so afraid of?
00:48:42.680 You just got elected
00:48:43.520 by the population
00:48:44.420 Right.
00:48:45.040 of the most powerful country
00:48:45.840 in the world
00:48:46.220 Why do you care?
00:48:46.900 You got your army behind you
00:48:47.940 they're your voters
00:48:48.620 Why can't you tell
00:48:50.900 obvious truths about things?
00:48:52.180 Like what are you afraid
00:48:52.880 of exactly?
00:48:53.480 That is
00:48:54.520 I mean
00:48:55.080 Yeah
00:48:55.220 If you want to understand
00:48:56.300 people's behavior
00:48:57.140 Right
00:48:57.620 Look at it through that lens
00:49:00.420 What are they not saying?
00:49:01.680 What are they not doing?
00:49:02.480 What are the limits
00:49:02.960 they're imposing on themselves
00:49:03.880 and why are they imposing
00:49:04.760 Why are they doing that?
00:49:05.480 What exactly are you afraid of?
00:49:07.140 You control the Pentagon
00:49:08.020 and the FBI
00:49:08.680 Right.
00:49:09.340 It's not like you don't
00:49:09.800 have bodyguards
00:49:10.500 Right.
00:49:10.980 You've got tens of thousands
00:49:11.800 of bodyguards
00:49:12.520 It's a great question
00:49:13.320 Donald Trump again
00:49:15.700 has said
00:49:16.080 I reject the premise
00:49:18.200 that I have to be quiet
00:49:18.860 which I think is a
00:49:19.980 very refreshing approach
00:49:21.200 and the question is
00:49:21.840 how far will he go?
00:49:22.740 And I hope he does go
00:49:23.780 I totally agree
00:49:24.960 but it would be interesting
00:49:25.840 to know what the control
00:49:27.180 mechanisms are
00:49:28.100 and if you
00:49:28.560 the last thing
00:49:29.660 I'll shut up
00:49:30.140 but the last thing
00:49:30.960 I would just recommend
00:49:32.260 anyone watching
00:49:33.020 is to go pull
00:49:34.280 the audio
00:49:35.500 of Richard Nixon
00:49:37.000 in the Oval Office
00:49:37.960 speaking to the then
00:49:39.140 CIA director
00:49:40.240 about
00:49:42.780 among other things
00:49:44.740 the Kennedy assassination
00:49:45.600 and the fear
00:49:47.540 or the sort of
00:49:48.160 deference
00:49:48.580 that Nixon has
00:49:51.380 is very striking
00:49:52.480 Nixon's a pretty brave guy
00:49:53.460 in a lot of ways
00:49:54.120 but like
00:49:54.720 you know
00:49:55.980 you're talking
00:49:57.220 to your employee
00:49:57.980 you're talking
00:49:58.620 to your housekeeper
00:49:59.280 like you don't need
00:50:00.120 deference
00:50:00.560 what?
00:50:01.480 Answer the freaking
00:50:02.320 question pal
00:50:03.220 or I'll fire you
00:50:04.340 there's none of that
00:50:05.380 in his voice
00:50:05.940 none
00:50:06.460 No I know
00:50:07.380 because
00:50:08.360 You've got employees
00:50:09.320 would you tiptoe around
00:50:10.660 when you talk to them
00:50:11.380 like did you finish
00:50:12.580 the assignment
00:50:13.180 are you embarrassed
00:50:13.800 to ask that?
00:50:14.540 No
00:50:14.740 They're your employees
00:50:16.580 Because the power structure
00:50:17.920 has been constructed
00:50:19.000 over the last hundred years
00:50:20.160 how do I
00:50:21.900 there's a couple threads
00:50:23.280 I want to go down
00:50:23.820 with that question
00:50:24.420 He's not really talking
00:50:24.600 to his employees
00:50:25.420 He's not talking
00:50:25.940 to his employees
00:50:26.400 He's talking to his masters
00:50:26.680 actually
00:50:27.200 Yeah
00:50:27.520 He's talking to the real
00:50:28.480 decision making
00:50:29.040 inside of our government
00:50:29.900 which was the whole point
00:50:31.060 It's crazy
00:50:31.580 No
00:50:31.860 I mean
00:50:32.420 in American Leviathan
00:50:33.320 the people have to understand
00:50:34.440 progressives hated
00:50:36.720 the constitution
00:50:38.080 they wanted to destroy
00:50:39.360 the political
00:50:39.900 and moral authority of it
00:50:41.120 they wanted to do
00:50:42.220 away with the machinery
00:50:43.400 of the republic
00:50:44.120 they wanted to do
00:50:44.720 a separation of powers
00:50:45.760 all of these things
00:50:46.700 and in its place
00:50:48.160 put in this massive
00:50:49.400 administrative state
00:50:50.200 this massive bureaucracy
00:50:51.180 filled with unelected
00:50:52.980 bureaucrats
00:50:53.660 who they thought
00:50:54.960 are elected representatives
00:50:56.260 should subdelegate
00:50:57.620 governing and legislating to
00:50:59.340 because they thought
00:50:59.860 the bureaucrats
00:51:00.480 should actually be doing
00:51:01.540 the business of governing
00:51:02.540 and running the country
00:51:04.360 So people
00:51:05.280 I think people
00:51:06.240 are a little perplexed
00:51:06.980 when they see
00:51:07.500 behavior like this
00:51:08.440 of where
00:51:08.820 the unelected bureaucrats
00:51:10.060 like Chris Ray
00:51:10.780 remember at that hearing
00:51:12.080 with Grassley
00:51:13.060 with the oversight committee
00:51:14.020 hearing
00:51:14.580 and Ray informs him
00:51:16.240 hey I gotta go
00:51:17.500 I gotta get on my plane
00:51:18.500 I've got an important
00:51:19.160 trip to be at
00:51:19.700 it was a family vacation
00:51:20.760 by the way
00:51:21.240 he told off
00:51:21.940 the senate
00:51:22.880 that was supposed
00:51:24.120 to be providing oversight
00:51:25.140 I have to leave
00:51:26.160 and he goes on the FBI jet
00:51:27.540 to his private vacation home
00:51:28.980 to enjoy a little down time
00:51:30.660 he was telling off
00:51:32.180 the people that were
00:51:33.260 supposed to be
00:51:33.700 providing oversight
00:51:34.280 because it's not really
00:51:35.060 how it works anymore
00:51:35.880 but that was the always
00:51:37.440 but those people
00:51:38.080 never threaten
00:51:38.620 okay
00:51:38.900 but that was the point
00:51:39.860 from day one
00:51:40.480 Chris will defund you
00:51:41.640 I mean why is that
00:51:42.420 this is what I
00:51:42.960 we're not going to
00:51:44.320 build you a new building
00:51:45.320 the whole point
00:51:46.000 was for these
00:51:46.520 unelected bureaucrats
00:51:47.300 to be doing the covering
00:51:48.020 to be doing the decision making
00:51:49.240 it'd be nice
00:51:50.740 if Congress said
00:51:51.660 you know what
00:51:52.120 we hold the purse strings
00:51:53.100 we're not going
00:51:54.420 to fund you anymore
00:51:55.320 we're just simply
00:51:56.640 not going to fund you
00:51:57.680 why did the speaker
00:51:57.900 of the house
00:51:58.200 sign off on a new
00:51:58.900 FBI building
00:51:59.540 great question
00:52:01.620 like what's that
00:52:02.400 can we just
00:52:03.480 okay let's just
00:52:04.040 be totally blunt now
00:52:04.880 what is that
00:52:06.320 the Republican speaker
00:52:07.580 of the house
00:52:08.080 who strikes me
00:52:09.680 as like an
00:52:10.300 out of the closet
00:52:10.840 liberal
00:52:12.560 out of the closet
00:52:13.640 liberal
00:52:14.140 more than
00:52:17.060 more than weak
00:52:18.060 working for the
00:52:18.760 working for the other side
00:52:20.000 I mean that
00:52:20.540 he's the best speaker
00:52:21.600 Democrats could hope for
00:52:22.720 so
00:52:23.840 what
00:52:24.480 and not a fan
00:52:26.640 and I
00:52:27.060 I kind of understand
00:52:28.080 some of the political dynamics
00:52:29.240 of why Trump
00:52:29.840 is pushing for him
00:52:30.760 to avoid
00:52:32.720 what was it
00:52:33.420 17 votes
00:52:34.360 or whatever it was
00:52:35.000 let's get down to business
00:52:36.080 that we had
00:52:37.200 last time
00:52:37.900 so I kind of understand
00:52:39.060 some of that
00:52:39.500 at the same time
00:52:40.420 I mean
00:52:42.200 could Democrats
00:52:43.180 hope for a better
00:52:44.080 speaker right now
00:52:45.280 with them being
00:52:45.840 in the minority
00:52:46.380 I don't think so
00:52:47.300 Mike Johnson
00:52:48.400 is one of the best things
00:52:49.280 they could hope for
00:52:49.900 right now
00:52:50.260 he gives them
00:52:50.680 whatever they want to
00:52:51.400 I think
00:52:51.700 I think this recent
00:52:52.860 spending bill
00:52:53.720 the initial version
00:52:54.980 of it
00:52:55.380 really shows
00:52:56.280 the true nature
00:52:57.380 of who someone is
00:52:58.300 that allows
00:52:58.760 something like that
00:52:59.500 to go to the
00:53:00.040 to come out
00:53:01.800 and be in public
00:53:02.800 this 15-1600 page
00:53:04.500 monstrosity
00:53:05.160 I think that was
00:53:06.840 the true
00:53:07.500 illustration
00:53:08.560 of how weak
00:53:10.040 he actually is
00:53:11.300 but yeah
00:53:13.360 I mean
00:53:13.760 these guys
00:53:14.740 have been performing
00:53:15.580 political lawfare
00:53:18.340 inside of our government
00:53:19.680 against
00:53:20.200 not only the president
00:53:21.380 but I would argue
00:53:22.020 members of congress
00:53:22.840 and for years
00:53:24.540 and you're gonna go ahead
00:53:25.960 and reward them with
00:53:26.740 I can't even remember
00:53:27.340 the cost
00:53:27.980 for a new FBI headquarters
00:53:29.060 but it's not millions
00:53:30.020 it's hundreds of millions
00:53:31.300 right
00:53:31.560 of course
00:53:32.100 why are you rewarding
00:53:33.900 these people
00:53:34.280 that have badly abused
00:53:35.380 our system
00:53:36.040 who by the way
00:53:36.880 I don't think
00:53:38.640 right now
00:53:39.200 in their current iteration
00:53:39.960 the DOJ and the FBI
00:53:41.140 you know
00:53:42.000 we always consider them
00:53:42.820 the guardians of the rule of law
00:53:44.100 and one of the basic pillars
00:53:45.360 of our society
00:53:45.980 was rule of law
00:53:46.700 and the equal enforcement
00:53:47.800 of justice
00:53:48.320 that all stood equal
00:53:49.080 before the law
00:53:49.800 and the DOJ
00:53:50.740 and the FBI
00:53:51.300 were gonna enforce that
00:53:52.100 and make sure that happened
00:53:52.740 now they're just
00:53:53.320 a Praetorian guard
00:53:54.540 of the administrative state
00:53:55.460 why are you funding them
00:53:57.940 why are you rewarding them
00:53:59.880 for this behavior
00:54:00.620 in which
00:54:01.220 quite frankly
00:54:02.140 I would go back
00:54:02.800 to self-preservation
00:54:03.660 if you had
00:54:04.360 if you really do believe
00:54:05.960 in self-preservation
00:54:06.860 as a party
00:54:08.000 and as an opposition party
00:54:09.160 because
00:54:09.480 the DOJ
00:54:10.400 and the FBI
00:54:10.980 and the various parts
00:54:11.600 of the administrative state
00:54:12.420 are protecting
00:54:13.040 the administrative state
00:54:13.920 and they view Republicans
00:54:14.820 for the most part
00:54:15.960 as a threat to that
00:54:17.380 why are you funding them
00:54:19.420 to continue doing
00:54:20.360 more damage to you
00:54:21.440 and trying to destroy you
00:54:22.560 are you insane
00:54:23.540 makes no sense
00:54:26.300 what's the answer
00:54:26.960 I think they're weak
00:54:29.420 I don't think
00:54:30.680 they understand
00:54:31.380 what time it is
00:54:32.340 I don't think
00:54:33.040 they fully come
00:54:33.880 to the
00:54:34.180 I don't think
00:54:35.260 they want to
00:54:35.880 maybe fully examine
00:54:36.900 the reality
00:54:37.520 of what is
00:54:38.060 they seem afraid
00:54:40.200 of their enemies
00:54:40.900 but not of their friends
00:54:41.980 yeah
00:54:42.340 they seem more eager
00:54:43.560 to please
00:54:44.220 their enemies
00:54:45.080 than to please
00:54:45.920 their allies
00:54:46.440 but what end
00:54:46.900 in hopes that
00:54:47.580 they'll get eaten last
00:54:48.660 this to me
00:54:51.400 is at some point
00:54:52.380 you have to wake up
00:54:53.240 to the reality
00:54:53.840 of what's going on
00:54:54.780 yep
00:54:55.160 and if you don't
00:54:57.020 it might be too late
00:54:58.180 and that's why
00:54:58.540 I think Donald Trump
00:54:59.180 being reelected
00:54:59.980 is a huge step
00:55:01.000 in the right direction
00:55:01.780 of
00:55:02.280 hopefully he can instill
00:55:04.720 a little bit of a spine
00:55:06.180 who's he going to pardon
00:55:06.980 backbone
00:55:07.920 who is Trump
00:55:08.840 yep
00:55:09.420 going to pardon
00:55:10.060 well I hope they won
00:55:10.900 it's all of January 6th
00:55:12.140 I think that's right
00:55:13.300 I mean listen
00:55:13.840 that was
00:55:14.300 there are so many
00:55:15.500 different questions
00:55:16.240 that have now
00:55:17.420 I had questions
00:55:18.380 when it actually happened
00:55:19.820 like what
00:55:21.100 this
00:55:21.460 something's wrong here
00:55:23.300 you can't
00:55:24.200 I mean the whole
00:55:24.800 all the chaos
00:55:25.440 there's something wrong
00:55:26.060 now we just know
00:55:26.600 it's just a setup
00:55:27.420 it was a setup
00:55:27.980 yeah
00:55:28.380 I think he has to go out
00:55:29.800 and not only pardon them
00:55:31.640 I would hope
00:55:33.020 that they get good lawyers
00:55:34.060 and they get massive settlements
00:55:35.700 from the government
00:55:36.420 for all the abuse
00:55:37.380 they've taken
00:55:37.780 over the last four years
00:55:38.560 significant
00:55:39.440 and I hope
00:55:40.440 all the media people
00:55:41.820 I used to work with
00:55:42.660 who hated me
00:55:43.660 for saying that
00:55:44.460 apologize
00:55:45.580 because now
00:55:46.520 they never will
00:55:46.940 they have an
00:55:48.100 they haven't apologized
00:55:49.140 for Russiagate
00:55:49.760 they didn't apologize
00:55:51.080 for using a fake dossier
00:55:52.460 and saying this is
00:55:53.880 proof of Russian collusion
00:55:54.980 when quite frankly
00:55:56.260 I think a lot of them
00:55:57.700 well
00:55:58.860 some of them didn't
00:55:59.840 because they're not smart enough
00:56:00.680 some of them knew
00:56:01.840 that it was fake
00:56:02.500 they just viewed it
00:56:03.440 as a useful weapon
00:56:04.300 to take out someone
00:56:05.020 they hated
00:56:05.440 I think some of them
00:56:06.520 actually believed it
00:56:07.300 because they're dumb
00:56:08.240 so he pardons
00:56:09.760 the J6 defense
00:56:10.760 amen
00:56:11.480 I think he will
00:56:12.420 he said he will
00:56:14.160 yep
00:56:14.540 immediately
00:56:15.540 but is
00:56:17.840 I mean
00:56:18.520 Biden just
00:56:20.460 pardoned a bunch
00:56:21.740 of murderers
00:56:22.300 including people
00:56:22.940 who murdered children
00:56:23.720 and drug dealers
00:56:25.040 so I mean
00:56:26.340 there's a precedent
00:56:27.040 for you know
00:56:28.180 big pardons
00:56:28.940 do you think
00:56:29.620 a lot of people
00:56:30.680 are going to get pardoned
00:56:31.360 I hope so
00:56:33.800 I mean
00:56:34.360 I couldn't give you
00:56:35.480 another list of names
00:56:36.460 but
00:56:36.740 but the victims
00:56:38.060 of lawfare
00:56:38.660 yeah
00:56:39.160 I would think
00:56:40.000 that he can go through
00:56:40.800 and just go
00:56:41.500 for the last four years
00:56:42.760 or quite frankly
00:56:43.420 eight years
00:56:44.060 everybody that has been
00:56:45.500 abused by this
00:56:46.200 political
00:56:46.580 lawfare
00:56:48.040 who's been abused
00:56:48.820 by the DOJ
00:56:49.420 and the FBI
00:56:50.000 and every other aspect
00:56:50.980 of our government
00:56:51.560 full pardon
00:56:52.600 and again
00:56:53.940 go back to
00:56:55.500 not just the pardons
00:56:56.520 not only do you
00:56:57.420 get your freedom back
00:56:58.240 and your lives back
00:56:59.360 but I hope that
00:57:00.380 there's significant
00:57:01.160 settlements
00:57:01.640 yeah
00:57:02.640 I mean
00:57:03.040 I hope that these people
00:57:04.140 get paid out
00:57:04.720 significantly
00:57:05.260 and I don't like
00:57:06.260 to see more taxpayer money
00:57:07.400 being sent out
00:57:08.600 to people
00:57:08.920 but in this situation
00:57:10.000 I'm all for it
00:57:11.100 yeah I am too
00:57:11.900 speaking of spending
00:57:14.440 so you said
00:57:15.740 the goal
00:57:18.640 has to be
00:57:19.600 to uproot
00:57:21.100 the tree
00:57:22.320 not just
00:57:22.960 pare down
00:57:23.640 its branches
00:57:24.280 right
00:57:24.780 the American Leviathan
00:57:25.840 this is the tree
00:57:26.780 if there is a debt crisis
00:57:28.800 and I think everyone
00:57:30.040 is whether they say it
00:57:30.860 a lot or not
00:57:31.300 really concerned about
00:57:32.200 yeah
00:57:32.660 you know
00:57:33.360 what are we
00:57:33.820 36 trillion
00:57:34.820 right
00:57:35.100 and by debt crisis
00:57:35.940 I mean specifically
00:57:37.720 the reluctance
00:57:38.880 of
00:57:39.500 other countries
00:57:41.340 institutions
00:57:41.900 to buy our debt
00:57:43.240 right
00:57:43.640 you know
00:57:44.000 because that
00:57:44.400 that you know
00:57:44.980 then we're really
00:57:46.080 hamstrung
00:57:46.460 could a debt crisis
00:57:48.720 which is probably
00:57:49.780 coming at some point
00:57:50.780 be used
00:57:52.000 to
00:57:52.520 to uproot
00:57:53.500 the tree
00:57:54.740 because it's like
00:57:57.300 very expensive
00:57:57.900 to have a government
00:57:58.460 this big
00:57:58.960 it is
00:57:59.760 it's unsustainable
00:58:00.680 right
00:58:01.000 I mean
00:58:01.280 this is
00:58:02.300 at some point
00:58:04.720 and I think
00:58:05.840 we're coming to that
00:58:06.660 I think we have
00:58:07.260 come to that point
00:58:07.800 I think we came to that
00:58:08.400 point a long time ago
00:58:09.100 actually
00:58:09.440 but now it's becoming
00:58:10.680 unsustainable
00:58:11.360 I mean at one point
00:58:11.940 this last
00:58:12.480 was it last year
00:58:13.340 or two years ago
00:58:13.960 we were growing it
00:58:14.720 by a trillion
00:58:15.300 in a hundred days
00:58:16.940 every hundred days
00:58:17.560 or something
00:58:17.820 in the national debt
00:58:18.480 it's just
00:58:18.800 it's exploding
00:58:19.880 I think Trump thinks
00:58:21.620 he can
00:58:22.280 grow us out
00:58:24.280 of some of these
00:58:25.040 situations
00:58:25.580 I don't think
00:58:26.720 that's
00:58:27.240 the only
00:58:28.520 I don't think
00:58:29.040 that's the solution
00:58:30.220 at some point
00:58:30.780 you have to address
00:58:31.500 the underlying
00:58:32.160 of
00:58:33.440 what are we actually
00:58:34.880 doing with this
00:58:35.560 government
00:58:35.860 that continues
00:58:36.480 to grow
00:58:37.060 that the DNA
00:58:37.800 and its DNA
00:58:38.480 is perpetual growth
00:58:39.420 again going back to
00:58:40.760 if you believe
00:58:42.360 government
00:58:42.680 if you believe
00:58:43.200 the state is salvation
00:58:44.060 and it should invade
00:58:45.720 every aspect
00:58:46.220 of your life
00:58:46.860 well until every
00:58:48.120 aspect of your life
00:58:49.180 is saved
00:58:49.840 government will
00:58:50.620 continue to grow
00:58:51.300 you have to
00:58:52.860 completely destroy
00:58:53.780 this to stop
00:58:54.740 the spending
00:58:55.560 to stop the growth
00:58:56.720 so I think
00:58:58.220 he has to
00:58:58.620 he has to go
00:58:59.180 down that dual path
00:58:59.860 yeah we can
00:59:00.360 you know
00:59:00.960 growth
00:59:01.360 in our economy
00:59:02.240 but at the same time
00:59:03.600 the underlying cost
00:59:04.580 for the debt
00:59:05.000 the spending
00:59:05.500 has been this state
00:59:07.240 and I think
00:59:08.380 we have to have
00:59:08.700 a conversation
00:59:08.920 this is
00:59:09.520 this is the one thing
00:59:10.300 where it feels
00:59:10.700 like the American people
00:59:11.660 we never actually
00:59:12.580 had a conversation
00:59:13.100 with the American people
00:59:13.940 about what form
00:59:14.600 of government
00:59:15.020 they wanted
00:59:15.480 it was just
00:59:17.160 a slow moving
00:59:18.060 regime change
00:59:19.000 I would argue
00:59:19.520 slow moving
00:59:20.100 revolution
00:59:20.640 against the republic
00:59:21.420 over the last
00:59:21.880 hundred years
00:59:22.460 people are under
00:59:23.500 the illusion
00:59:24.080 we have some
00:59:24.700 representative democracy
00:59:25.940 constitutional republic
00:59:26.960 when in fact
00:59:27.420 we don't
00:59:28.000 what is the
00:59:30.300 government
00:59:30.580 that we think
00:59:31.180 best fits
00:59:32.080 that is best suited
00:59:33.540 for a government
00:59:34.260 of by and for the people
00:59:35.160 that provides
00:59:36.060 the most
00:59:36.440 amount of freedom
00:59:37.480 and liberty
00:59:37.940 and the most
00:59:38.960 amount of prosperity
00:59:39.580 for the American people
00:59:40.780 and we've
00:59:41.980 really
00:59:42.500 I don't think
00:59:43.040 we've really
00:59:43.420 had that conversation
00:59:44.220 over the last
00:59:44.800 hundred years
00:59:45.460 it's just kind of
00:59:46.100 been slow moving
00:59:47.100 and all of a sudden
00:59:47.740 we wake up
00:59:48.180 to find ourselves
00:59:48.740 in 2024
00:59:49.660 2025 now
00:59:51.340 going
00:59:52.160 I don't think
00:59:54.520 we ever had
00:59:54.980 a conversation
00:59:55.540 about this
00:59:56.140 because the country
00:59:56.600 is rich
00:59:57.080 and as long
00:59:57.560 as you're rich
00:59:58.200 you don't worry
00:59:58.760 about details
00:59:59.460 and the economy
01:00:00.440 was growing
01:00:01.120 and life was great
01:00:02.060 and we're just
01:00:02.440 going to continue
01:00:03.020 on this
01:00:03.480 will never end
01:00:04.140 but that's not
01:00:05.240 that's not how
01:00:05.940 history works
01:00:06.600 that's not how
01:00:07.380 at some point
01:00:09.160 the music stops
01:00:10.120 and people have
01:00:11.860 to have hard
01:00:12.320 conversations about
01:00:13.260 what are we actually
01:00:14.060 doing to make sure
01:00:15.060 that we
01:00:15.400 this is sustainable
01:00:16.960 in the future
01:00:17.520 because what we have
01:00:18.280 is not sustainable
01:00:19.080 at all
01:00:19.860 on any level
01:00:20.740 are you ready
01:00:21.360 to make getting
01:00:21.880 a good night's sleep
01:00:23.440 your new year's resolution
01:00:24.820 it's a worthy resolution
01:00:26.240 cozy earth
01:00:27.440 completely transformed
01:00:28.800 the way we sleep
01:00:29.540 and it's made
01:00:30.180 the difference
01:00:30.760 everyone on our team
01:00:31.820 agrees
01:00:32.440 they got bamboo
01:00:34.120 sheets set
01:00:34.940 it sounds weird
01:00:35.780 but it's awesome
01:00:36.600 ask anyone who works
01:00:37.860 here
01:00:38.020 they love them
01:00:39.040 cozy earth sheets
01:00:40.720 made from 100%
01:00:41.760 premium bamboo
01:00:42.580 derivatives
01:00:43.080 are soft
01:00:44.220 and breathable
01:00:44.920 and they get better
01:00:45.360 with every wash
01:00:46.040 again
01:00:46.320 sounds weird
01:00:47.200 until you try it
01:00:47.960 in which case
01:00:48.500 you are hooked
01:00:49.580 cozy earth

01:00:52.260 quality and care
01:00:53.000 with a 100 night
01:00:53.680 sleep trial
01:00:54.220 so that means
01:00:55.100 you try their sheets
01:00:55.780 for up to 100 nights
01:00:56.560 if you don't love them
01:00:57.380 you send them back
01:00:58.480 for a full refund
01:00:59.500 we're not going to ask
01:01:00.240 what they do
01:01:00.560 with those sheets
01:01:01.040 but you get your money
01:01:02.080 back so there's no risk
01:01:03.080 a good night's sleep

01:01:14.080 from this show
01:01:15.120 we'd be grateful
01:01:15.840 you were a backer
01:01:32.580 of Kash Patel
01:01:33.860 for FBI director
01:01:35.220 yeah I mean
01:01:35.840 I lobbied Trump on it
01:01:36.940 why
01:01:38.080 and what do you think
01:01:39.380 why do you think
01:01:40.060 it's a good idea
01:01:40.540 that he's going to run
01:01:41.200 the FBI
01:01:41.620 so I was deeply
01:01:43.380 concerned about
01:01:44.580 you know people
01:01:45.660 somewhere
01:01:46.200 somewhere inside
01:01:47.060 of Trump world
01:01:48.060 someone was pushing
01:01:48.900 Mike Rogers
01:01:49.440 which I thought
01:01:50.960 was a terrible mistake
01:01:51.900 who's Mike Rogers
01:01:52.640 former FBI agent
01:01:54.500 was running for Senate
01:01:55.500 was a member of the House
01:01:56.460 former FBI
01:01:58.440 was a member of the House
01:01:59.640 I think Intel Committee
01:02:00.640 then was running for Senate
01:02:02.700 this time around
01:02:03.260 lost narrowly
01:02:04.080 and then someone
01:02:04.960 was pushing him
01:02:05.840 to be FBI director
01:02:06.600 which I think
01:02:07.180 was the wrong take
01:02:07.880 by like
01:02:09.240 a country mile
01:02:10.040 you don't need
01:02:11.380 an institutionalist
01:02:12.540 to go in and run
01:02:13.300 what I think
01:02:13.700 is one of the most
01:02:14.180 corrupt institutions
01:02:15.040 in our country today
01:02:15.920 and I told Trump
01:02:17.520 I was like
01:02:18.220 as much as you need
01:02:18.880 a loyalist running
01:02:19.700 DOJ
01:02:20.680 times it times
01:02:22.580 a hundred
01:02:23.160 running the FBI
01:02:24.800 it's a pit of vipers
01:02:25.800 and you need
01:02:27.840 somebody like
01:02:28.260 Kash Patel
01:02:28.920 we talked about
01:02:30.740 Rick Grinnell
01:02:31.180 Kash Patel
01:02:31.940 but you need
01:02:32.840 somebody that's
01:02:33.280 going to go in there
01:02:33.760 and be fearless
01:02:34.320 to say
01:02:34.700 we are not
01:02:36.420 doing this anymore
01:02:37.600 in fact
01:02:38.380 I would kind of
01:02:39.580 like
01:02:39.720 I know Kash has said
01:02:40.500 this again
01:02:40.920 we'll see what happens
01:02:41.660 but you know
01:02:42.740 he said that day one
01:02:43.940 he'd shut it down
01:02:44.540 and turn it into
01:02:45.100 a museum for
01:02:45.900 the deep state
01:02:46.760 the FBI
01:02:49.580 in his current form
01:02:50.460 his current iteration
01:02:51.320 needs to cease to exist
01:02:52.580 and I think
01:02:53.260 Kash Patel has
01:02:54.280 not only the
01:02:55.500 the intelligence
01:02:57.600 and the skills
01:02:58.880 who's going to
01:02:59.400 commit terror attacks
01:03:00.260 if we don't have an FBI
01:03:01.200 yeah I know
01:03:03.880 this to me
01:03:04.580 I think we have to
01:03:05.400 what has been
01:03:06.240 the point of the FBI
01:03:06.860 they started what
01:03:07.420 1908 I think
01:03:08.560 is when they
01:03:09.020 originated
01:03:09.860 what are they
01:03:12.360 actually doing
01:03:12.820 what is their
01:03:13.220 purpose right now
01:03:14.200 besides being
01:03:16.120 I don't know
01:03:16.480 Praetorian guard
01:03:17.440 for the administrative
01:03:18.060 state
01:03:18.500 recruiting Tim McVeigh
01:03:18.660 right
01:03:19.240 and
01:03:19.700 looking at
01:03:22.040 potential
01:03:22.560 people like
01:03:23.520 Donald Trump
01:03:24.000 as existential threats
01:03:24.860 and trying to
01:03:25.280 destroy them
01:03:25.940 what
01:03:27.500 and then we
01:03:28.680 continue to fund
01:03:29.300 it blindly
01:03:29.620 this is
01:03:30.260 writ large
01:03:31.940 with our
01:03:32.780 government
01:03:33.100 administrative
01:03:33.520 state
01:03:34.060 what I find
01:03:35.800 one of the
01:03:36.080 most interesting
01:03:36.520 things about
01:03:37.100 Republicans
01:03:37.660 today
01:03:38.320 and have
01:03:38.860 for quite
01:03:39.500 frankly
01:03:39.760 years
01:03:40.240 elect me
01:03:42.240 I'm going to
01:03:42.620 go to DC
01:03:43.040 I'm going to
01:03:43.580 change DC
01:03:44.100 they get to DC
01:03:45.280 they accept
01:03:46.420 budget recommendations
01:03:47.420 from these
01:03:47.820 very department
01:03:48.320 agencies
01:03:48.840 go ahead
01:03:49.980 and pass
01:03:50.720 those
01:03:50.960 fund them
01:03:51.440 do these
01:03:52.420 four or five
01:03:52.900 thousand page
01:03:53.780 bills
01:03:54.000 send them over
01:03:54.580 to the
01:03:54.860 bureaucrats
01:03:55.480 who with
01:03:56.240 their statutes
01:03:56.800 and regulations
01:03:57.380 actually put
01:03:57.900 a fine point
01:03:58.460 on how
01:03:58.960 this is actually
01:03:59.620 going to look
01:03:59.980 in reality
01:04:00.420 so they're
01:04:01.060 doing the
01:04:01.380 real governing
01:04:01.800 so they've
01:04:02.300 not only
01:04:03.040 given them
01:04:03.520 all the
01:04:03.860 funding
01:04:04.100 without any
01:04:04.460 real oversight
01:04:04.980 they just
01:04:05.340 give it to
01:04:05.680 them
01:04:05.900 they've
01:04:06.460 then sub
01:04:06.880 delegated
01:04:07.320 their legislative
01:04:07.960 authority
01:04:08.300 to these
01:04:08.620 unelected
01:04:09.040 bureaucrats
01:04:09.660 and then
01:04:10.740 go home
01:04:11.180 and say
01:04:11.420 you need
01:04:11.660 to send
01:04:11.880 me back
01:04:12.400 I know
01:04:12.640 those
01:04:12.900 people at
01:04:15.080 the EPA
01:04:15.460 or the FDA
01:04:16.000 made some
01:04:16.460 terrible
01:04:16.720 regulations
01:04:17.320 that are
01:04:18.040 ruining your
01:04:18.440 lives
01:04:18.660 but send
01:04:19.000 me back
01:04:19.340 I'll fight
01:04:19.680 the system
01:04:20.220 and I'll
01:04:21.040 make sure
01:04:21.340 that doesn't
01:04:21.680 happen again
01:04:22.220 as they get
01:04:22.840 reelected
01:04:23.580 to then fund
01:04:24.540 those people
01:04:25.100 again
01:04:25.400 to then send
01:04:25.940 them forward
01:04:26.240 five thousand
01:04:26.780 page bills
01:04:27.420 to then do
01:04:27.920 the statutes
01:04:28.440 and regulations
01:04:28.980 that actually
01:04:29.420 govern us
01:04:29.920 the whole
01:04:30.800 system
01:04:31.100 is completely
01:04:31.780 bonkers
01:04:32.720 and it's
01:04:33.300 actually very
01:04:33.680 beneficial
01:04:34.060 to most
01:04:34.500 of these
01:04:34.860 elected
01:04:35.300 representatives
01:04:35.900 experts in
01:04:37.200 self-preservation
01:04:37.700 because they
01:04:38.000 don't have
01:04:38.320 to make
01:04:38.580 the hard
01:04:38.860 choices
01:04:39.200 they don't
01:04:40.380 actually have
01:04:41.180 to do the
01:04:41.580 really hard
01:04:42.040 decisions
01:04:42.460 on legislating
01:04:43.340 because the
01:04:44.220 statutes and
01:04:44.780 regulations
01:04:45.220 that have
01:04:45.560 the binding
01:04:45.940 effect of
01:04:46.420 laws
01:04:46.780 is what's
01:04:47.780 being done
01:04:48.060 over here
01:04:48.520 in the
01:04:48.960 article 2
01:04:49.400 branch
01:04:49.700 by these
01:04:50.040 administrative
01:04:50.460 state
01:04:50.700 bureaucrats
01:04:51.220 at some
01:04:53.720 point
01:04:54.040 I do have
01:04:56.040 some hope
01:04:56.500 that we're
01:04:57.420 going to
01:04:57.600 have a
01:04:57.920 chance
01:04:58.100 not only
01:04:58.360 with Donald
01:04:58.620 Trump
01:04:58.820 but the
01:04:59.000 Supreme
01:04:59.180 Court
01:04:59.460 the last
01:05:00.680 summer
01:05:01.120 there were
01:05:01.340 a couple
01:05:01.500 cases
01:05:01.820 that I
01:05:02.080 think
01:05:02.220 gave us
01:05:02.460 real hope
01:05:03.240 it was not
01:05:04.140 only Chevron
01:05:04.640 deference
01:05:05.040 where the
01:05:05.620 Supreme
01:05:05.820 Court said
01:05:06.260 40 years
01:05:07.780 this is a
01:05:08.320 disaster
01:05:08.720 we're not
01:05:09.020 going to
01:05:09.180 have judicial
01:05:09.660 deference
01:05:10.000 to these
01:05:10.340 bureaucrats
01:05:10.960 regulations
01:05:12.960 and statutes
01:05:13.700 I think the
01:05:14.300 other one
01:05:14.560 that wasn't
01:05:14.940 discussed as
01:05:15.500 much
01:05:15.700 that should
01:05:16.000 have been
01:05:16.340 is when
01:05:17.240 the Supreme
01:05:17.820 Court
01:05:18.060 said the
01:05:18.760 SEC
01:05:19.120 tribunals
01:05:19.800 you can't
01:05:20.160 have those
01:05:20.480 anymore
01:05:20.800 the SEC
01:05:21.800 cannot have
01:05:22.340 its own
01:05:22.620 private
01:05:22.920 administrative
01:05:23.380 law
01:05:23.680 tribunal
01:05:24.200 in which
01:05:24.880 90%
01:05:25.360 of the
01:05:25.580 time
01:05:25.800 that
01:05:26.000 SEC
01:05:26.380 tribunal
01:05:26.920 ruled
01:05:27.200 in favor
01:05:27.540 of the
01:05:27.780 SEC
01:05:28.120 the
01:05:29.380 Supreme
01:05:29.580 Court
01:05:29.740 said
01:05:30.040 first of
01:05:31.240 all it
01:05:31.420 calls into
01:05:31.720 question
01:05:32.020 the idea
01:05:32.340 of an
01:05:32.560 independent
01:05:32.880 judiciary
01:05:33.340 because
01:05:33.840 you're
01:05:34.020 taking
01:05:34.240 the
01:05:34.420 judicial
01:05:34.720 role
01:05:34.940 inside
01:05:35.140 the
01:05:35.260 article
01:05:35.440 two
01:05:35.660 branch
01:05:35.960 not
01:05:36.140 the
01:05:36.260 article
01:05:36.460 three
01:05:36.820 and
01:05:37.640 even
01:05:37.760 annihilated
01:05:38.200 our
01:05:39.020 seventh
01:05:39.300 amendment
01:05:39.580 which
01:05:39.800 is
01:05:39.900 right
01:05:40.040 to
01:05:40.160 trial
01:05:40.320 by
01:05:40.500 jury
01:05:40.760 we're
01:05:41.380 not
01:05:41.480 going
01:05:41.580 to
01:05:41.640 do
01:05:41.740 this
01:05:41.920 anymore
01:05:42.200 by the
01:05:43.860 way
01:05:44.040 you look
01:05:44.600 at some
01:05:44.820 of these
01:05:45.000 things
01:05:45.180 that we're
01:05:45.380 dealing
01:05:45.640 with
01:05:45.820 today
01:05:46.060 and look
01:05:46.760 at where
01:05:46.940 the
01:05:47.060 founders
01:05:47.320 started
01:05:47.740 they wanted
01:05:48.540 an
01:05:48.740 independent
01:05:49.040 judiciary
01:05:49.500 because
01:05:49.940 they saw
01:05:50.320 what the
01:05:50.520 British
01:05:50.680 courts
01:05:50.900 were doing
01:05:51.220 in rubber
01:05:51.480 stamping
01:05:51.800 King
01:05:52.060 George
01:05:52.260 the
01:05:52.400 third
01:05:52.620 and his
01:05:52.960 ministers
01:05:53.280 and
01:05:53.460 parliament
01:05:53.740 edicts
01:05:54.180 that they
01:05:54.400 viewed
01:05:54.640 as
01:05:54.820 very
01:05:55.200 deeply
01:05:56.100 unfair
01:05:56.580 to
01:05:56.700 them
01:05:56.780 but
01:05:56.880 they
01:05:56.980 were
01:05:57.080 just
01:05:57.240 acting
01:05:57.560 as
01:05:57.700 a
01:05:57.800 rubber
01:05:57.940 stamp
01:05:58.160 so
01:05:58.280 they
01:05:58.360 said
01:05:58.440 we're
01:05:58.620 going
01:05:58.700 to have
01:05:58.840 an
01:05:58.940 independent
01:05:59.260 judiciary
01:05:59.680 and
01:06:00.760 with
01:06:00.980 the
01:06:01.060 administrative
01:06:01.440 state
01:06:01.760 obviously
01:06:02.100 it's
01:06:02.280 annihilated
01:06:02.720 the
01:06:02.880 separation
01:06:03.200 of
01:06:03.360 powers
01:06:03.620 and
01:06:03.760 you
01:06:03.860 have
01:06:04.060 article
01:06:04.360 two
01:06:04.560 branch
01:06:04.840 doing
01:06:05.020 a lot
01:06:05.240 of
01:06:05.320 the
01:06:05.440 legislative
01:06:05.860 and a lot
01:06:06.140 of
01:06:06.240 judicial
01:06:06.580 I think
01:06:07.400 Supreme
01:06:07.740 Court
01:06:07.940 stepping up
01:06:08.460 and saying
01:06:08.700 we're not
01:06:08.960 going to do
01:06:09.260 this anymore
01:06:09.680 is another
01:06:10.060 step in the
01:06:10.520 right direction
01:06:11.020 but at
01:06:12.440 some point
01:06:13.220 I would
01:06:14.000 hope
01:06:14.400 that
01:06:15.120 members
01:06:15.540 of
01:06:15.780 Congress
01:06:16.180 would
01:06:16.420 find it
01:06:16.860 within
01:06:17.100 themselves
01:06:17.580 to
01:06:17.880 have
01:06:18.440 just
01:06:19.300 the
01:06:19.800 smallest
01:06:20.240 bit
01:06:20.460 of
01:06:20.600 political
01:06:20.900 curse
01:06:21.200 to say
01:06:21.480 I'm
01:06:21.740 not
01:06:21.980 going
01:06:22.140 to
01:06:22.300 blindly
01:06:22.620 fund
01:06:22.920 this
01:06:23.100 stuff
01:06:23.320 anymore
01:06:23.620 and
01:06:24.420 that's
01:06:24.660 a step
01:06:24.940 in the
01:06:25.100 right
01:06:25.240 direction
01:06:25.480 for
01:06:25.940 example
01:06:26.540 with
01:06:26.700 the
01:06:26.780 FBI
01:06:27.100 we're
01:06:28.260 not
01:06:28.380 going
01:06:28.480 to
01:06:28.540 do
01:06:28.640 this
01:06:28.820 anymore
01:06:29.140 we can't
01:06:29.760 do
01:06:29.860 this
01:06:30.020 anymore
01:06:30.300 for
01:06:30.900 our
01:06:31.020 own
01:06:31.180 sakes
01:06:31.460 for
01:06:31.880 the
01:06:32.000 sake
01:06:32.100 of
01:06:32.180 the
01:06:32.240 country
01:06:32.500 I think
01:06:32.860 it's
01:06:32.960 important
01:06:33.380 for the
01:06:33.720 White
01:06:33.940 House
01:06:34.360 to
01:06:34.880 lead
01:06:35.160 on
01:06:35.440 issues
01:06:36.540 like
01:06:36.820 that
01:06:37.480 just
01:06:38.160 how
01:06:38.360 about
01:06:38.520 no
01:06:38.840 how
01:06:39.560 about
01:06:39.720 no
01:06:39.960 I
01:06:40.360 would
01:06:40.920 very
01:06:41.120 much
01:06:41.400 like
01:06:41.640 Donald
01:06:41.920 Trump
01:06:42.100 to
01:06:42.240 say
01:06:42.360 the
01:06:42.480 FBI
01:06:42.760 does
01:06:42.980 not
01:06:43.180 deserve
01:06:43.460 a
01:06:43.560 new
01:06:43.660 headquarters
01:06:44.040 that
01:06:44.560 and
01:06:44.800 a lot
01:06:45.080 of
01:06:45.180 other
01:06:45.340 issues
01:06:45.680 just
01:06:46.240 make
01:06:47.000 statements
01:06:47.420 exactly
01:06:48.300 what
01:06:49.100 happens
01:06:49.540 to
01:06:49.960 Kamala
01:06:50.660 Harris
01:06:50.980 now
01:06:51.360 where
01:06:53.260 does
01:06:53.420 she
01:06:53.560 go
01:06:53.740 from
01:06:53.960 here
01:06:54.280 where
01:06:54.900 does
01:06:55.000 she
01:06:55.120 go
01:06:55.220 I know
01:06:55.400 you're
01:06:55.500 not
01:06:55.640 a
01:06:55.860 Democrat
01:06:56.160 but
01:06:56.440 the
01:06:56.840 ash
01:06:57.260 heap
01:06:57.440 of
01:06:57.600 history
01:06:57.960 but
01:06:58.560 like
01:06:58.880 you
01:06:59.260 know
01:06:59.380 typically
01:06:59.740 you run
01:07:00.560 for
01:07:00.720 president
01:07:01.100 and
01:07:01.660 you
01:07:01.800 lose
01:07:02.340 on
01:07:02.960 the
01:07:03.060 Democratic
01:07:03.380 side
01:07:03.800 and
01:07:04.140 you
01:07:04.320 get
01:07:04.700 well
01:07:05.160 John
01:07:05.440 Kerry's
01:07:05.820 or
01:07:05.960 climate
01:07:06.360 czar
01:07:06.720 I guess
01:07:07.380 right
01:07:07.780 and
01:07:08.200 there's
01:07:08.960 always
01:07:09.200 a
01:07:09.460 soft
01:07:09.900 landing
01:07:10.260 for
01:07:10.560 for
01:07:11.120 the
01:07:11.260 loser
01:07:11.560 I
01:07:12.220 don't
01:07:12.340 think
01:07:12.520 so
01:07:12.760 not
01:07:16.240 such
01:07:16.360 a
01:07:16.480 disaster
01:07:16.840 they
01:07:16.980 got
01:07:17.160 stuck
01:07:17.520 I
01:07:17.660 mean
01:07:17.740 first
01:07:17.940 of
01:07:18.040 all
01:07:18.120 they
01:07:18.420 boxed
01:07:19.120 themselves
01:07:19.480 into
01:07:19.760 a
01:07:19.960 corner
01:07:20.240 of
01:07:20.460 their
01:07:20.620 own
01:07:20.820 making
01:07:21.200 yes
01:07:21.700 right
01:07:22.280 they
01:07:22.520 knew
01:07:23.100 Joe
01:07:23.680 Biden
01:07:24.080 they
01:07:24.600 got a
01:07:24.860 DEI
01:07:25.200 candidate
01:07:25.580 and
01:07:25.920 they
01:07:26.080 live
01:07:26.260 with
01:07:26.380 the
01:07:26.460 results
01:07:26.860 right
01:07:27.140 and
01:07:28.060 then
01:07:28.380 all
01:07:28.540 sudden
01:07:28.700 realized
01:07:29.120 in
01:07:29.300 June
01:07:29.600 this
01:07:30.300 isn't
01:07:30.560 going
01:07:30.660 to
01:07:30.780 cut
01:07:31.000 it
01:07:31.220 I'm
01:07:31.400 glad
01:07:31.540 they
01:07:31.680 didn't
01:07:31.880 make
01:07:32.100 her
01:07:32.220 like
01:07:32.520 a
01:07:33.020 commercial
01:07:33.340 airplane
01:07:33.700 pilot
01:07:34.080 do
01:07:35.220 you
01:07:35.320 I
01:07:35.400 mean
01:07:35.540 America
01:07:36.240 got
01:07:36.520 pretty
01:07:36.900 easy
01:07:37.240 we
01:07:37.640 did
01:07:46.240 they've
01:07:46.600 got
01:07:46.720 a
01:07:46.860 shot
01:07:47.180 and
01:07:47.960 then
01:07:48.120 all
01:07:48.260 of
01:07:48.840 sudden
01:07:48.980 obviously
01:07:49.300 the
01:07:49.480 reality
01:07:49.840 of
01:07:50.000 who
01:07:50.120 she
01:07:50.280 is
01:07:50.660 a
01:07:51.180 lightweight
01:07:51.560 intellectually
01:07:53.140 a lightweight
01:07:54.000 so far
01:07:55.380 in over
01:07:55.680 her head
01:07:56.060 it's clear
01:07:56.740 that she's
01:07:57.120 just been
01:07:57.440 going up
01:07:57.840 the ranks
01:07:58.300 as a
01:07:59.240 DEI
01:08:00.400 advancement
01:08:01.720 for her
01:08:02.480 whole life
01:08:02.960 yes
01:08:03.480 I
01:08:04.920 think
01:08:06.180 they're
01:08:06.380 going to
01:08:06.520 be
01:08:06.640 very
01:08:06.920 happy
01:08:07.260 for her
01:08:07.660 to fade
01:08:08.160 off
01:08:08.400 into
01:08:08.600 obscurity
01:08:09.220 I mean
01:08:10.520 all
01:08:10.660 I saw
01:08:11.260 some
01:08:11.420 sorry
01:08:11.780 for
01:08:12.020 at
01:08:12.160 all
01:08:12.380 I
01:08:12.520 do
01:08:12.660 not
01:08:12.880 at
01:08:13.000 all
01:08:13.260 I
01:08:14.040 kind
01:08:14.320 of
01:08:14.460 do
01:08:14.660 maybe
01:08:14.900 I'm
01:08:15.120 the
01:08:16.240 I
01:08:16.900 feel
01:08:17.140 like
01:08:17.400 she's
01:08:18.260 a
01:08:18.440 victim
01:08:18.700 of
01:08:19.240 self
01:08:19.840 esteem
01:08:20.120 culture
01:08:20.560 and
01:08:21.480 I
01:08:21.660 think
01:08:21.980 she's
01:08:22.300 allowed
01:08:22.580 herself
01:08:22.880 to be
01:08:23.120 that
01:08:23.320 though
01:08:23.540 she
01:08:23.920 had
01:08:24.140 I mean
01:08:24.500 she's
01:08:24.700 been
01:08:24.820 a
01:08:25.800 beneficiary
01:08:26.720 of it
01:08:27.100 she's
01:08:27.440 had
01:08:27.700 she'd be
01:08:29.120 vice president
01:08:29.560 of the United
01:08:29.800 States
01:08:30.200 well I'm
01:08:30.620 saying
01:08:30.840 based off
01:08:31.560 being
01:08:31.960 completely
01:08:32.580 honest
01:08:32.900 based off
01:08:33.500 her
01:08:33.900 talents
01:08:35.040 or lack
01:08:35.420 thereof
01:08:36.000 or her
01:08:36.440 skill sets
01:08:36.920 where
01:08:37.080 she's
01:08:37.780 had a
01:08:38.000 pretty
01:08:38.200 freaking
01:08:38.480 good
01:08:38.720 life
01:08:39.020 no
01:08:39.220 she
01:08:39.500 had
01:08:39.740 no
01:08:39.920 you're
01:08:40.140 right
01:08:40.480 but
01:08:41.380 far above
01:08:42.000 and beyond
01:08:42.280 what she
01:08:42.520 should
01:08:42.680 done
01:08:42.920 yeah
01:08:43.380 no
01:08:43.860 you're
01:08:44.060 right
01:08:44.240 but
01:08:45.280 that's
01:08:46.140 true
01:08:46.440 but
01:08:46.760 she's
01:08:47.060 also
01:08:47.400 just
01:08:47.860 a
01:08:48.200 vessel
01:08:49.140 for
01:08:49.320 the
01:08:49.440 ambitions
01:08:49.780 of
01:08:50.020 others
01:08:50.380 like
01:08:50.600 she's
01:08:50.860 almost
01:08:51.080 like
01:08:51.280 an
01:08:51.380 innocent
01:08:51.620 bystander
01:08:52.260 kidnapped
01:08:52.600 off
01:08:53.000 the
01:08:53.160 street
01:08:53.420 just
01:08:53.720 human
01:08:54.660 trafficked
01:08:55.280 into her
01:08:55.720 current
01:08:55.980 position
01:08:56.420 do you know
01:08:56.700 what I mean
01:08:57.100 it's like
01:08:57.800 you just
01:08:58.160 look like
01:08:59.420 the kind
01:08:59.740 of person
01:09:00.180 I don't
01:09:00.540 know if
01:09:00.780 I've ever
01:09:01.080 heard it
01:09:01.380 described
01:09:01.700 that way
01:09:02.060 no
01:09:02.300 I'm gonna
01:09:02.920 have to
01:09:03.160 think
01:09:03.280 about
01:09:03.500 that
01:09:03.760 but
01:09:04.280 I
01:09:04.420 just
01:09:04.720 she's
01:09:05.440 so
01:09:05.700 dumb
01:09:06.120 and
01:09:07.200 you
01:09:07.540 just
01:09:07.760 could
01:09:07.940 what is
01:09:08.260 that
01:09:08.400 phrase
01:09:08.640 they use
01:09:08.860 imposter
01:09:09.400 syndrome
01:09:09.820 yes
01:09:10.380 where you
01:09:10.820 sort of
01:09:11.100 know
01:09:11.440 that you're
01:09:11.820 not
01:09:11.980 qualified
01:09:12.360 to be
01:09:12.660 doing
01:09:12.960 what
01:09:13.280 you're
01:09:13.420 doing
01:09:13.660 and
01:09:13.880 people
01:09:14.820 say
01:09:15.020 they feel
01:09:15.400 that way
01:09:15.700 but
01:09:15.860 her whole
01:09:16.440 life
01:09:16.760 was
01:09:16.940 that
01:09:17.200 she
01:09:17.460 has
01:09:17.720 no
01:09:17.940 future
01:09:18.360 in
01:09:18.560 national
01:09:18.920 politics
01:09:19.540 for
01:09:20.080 sure
01:09:20.420 so
01:09:20.880 will
01:09:21.100 she
01:09:21.340 be
01:09:21.540 the
01:09:21.780 head
01:09:22.020 of
01:09:22.260 the
01:09:22.560 douchebag
01:09:23.100 foundation
01:09:23.500 or
01:09:23.680 wherever
01:09:23.860 they
01:09:24.040 sort
01:09:24.480 of
01:09:24.560 put
01:09:32.300 you know
01:09:32.880 vice
01:09:33.100 president
01:09:33.380 for
01:09:33.640 for
01:09:33.940 a few
01:09:34.160 more
01:09:34.340 weeks
01:09:34.660 it
01:09:35.140 feels
01:09:35.400 like
01:09:35.560 she
01:09:35.720 has
01:09:35.900 already
01:09:36.580 been
01:09:38.080 relegated
01:09:38.600 to
01:09:38.780 obscurity
01:09:39.280 and I
01:09:39.660 think
01:09:39.820 that's
01:09:40.060 going to
01:09:40.360 be
01:09:40.480 the rest
01:09:40.880 of her
01:09:41.220 existence
01:09:43.480 I'm
01:09:43.900 sure
01:09:44.060 that
01:09:44.240 somewhere
01:09:44.600 someone
01:09:45.060 will
01:09:45.300 find her
01:09:45.700 a nice
01:09:46.080 gig
01:09:46.500 at a
01:09:46.680 foundation
01:09:47.100 but
01:09:47.420 I
01:09:48.260 think
01:09:48.400 this
01:09:48.560 last
01:09:48.880 time
01:09:49.080 you're
01:09:49.260 going to
01:09:49.420 see
01:09:49.560 any
01:09:49.740 serious
01:09:50.000 conversation
01:09:50.440 about
01:09:50.740 to keep
01:09:51.480 her
01:09:51.600 in the
01:09:51.820 public
01:09:52.080 eye
01:09:52.320 like
01:09:52.620 George
01:09:52.940 Floyd
01:09:53.220 I
01:09:53.600 always
01:09:53.920 like
01:09:54.360 once
01:09:54.580 we
01:09:54.780 remember
01:09:55.120 we
01:09:55.260 declared
01:09:55.520 him
01:09:55.700 Jesus
01:10:02.300 let's
01:10:02.440 talk
01:10:02.680 about
01:10:03.060 you
01:10:03.340 know
01:10:03.420 his
01:10:03.600 porn
01:10:03.960 career
01:10:04.400 and his
01:10:05.520 drug
01:10:05.780 addiction
01:10:06.220 and his
01:10:06.700 armed
01:10:06.900 robbery
01:10:07.380 conviction
01:10:08.020 I
01:10:08.700 think
01:10:08.840 they
01:10:08.960 are
01:10:09.060 more
01:10:09.220 than
01:10:09.360 happy
01:10:09.700 for
01:10:09.940 her
01:10:10.100 to
01:10:10.240 just
01:10:10.440 simply
01:10:10.860 fade
01:10:11.520 away
01:10:11.720 into
01:10:11.860 that
01:10:11.980 I
01:10:13.440 don't
01:10:13.540 think
01:10:13.680 they
01:10:13.780 should
01:10:13.900 be
01:10:13.960 able
01:10:14.080 to
01:10:14.180 memory
01:10:14.460 hole
01:10:14.780 Carmela
01:10:15.500 Harris
01:10:15.920 she should
01:10:16.800 have to
01:10:17.060 explain
01:10:17.420 how her
01:10:17.740 first
01:10:17.940 name
01:10:18.080 is
01:10:18.200 pronounced
01:10:18.500 and why
01:10:19.040 and why
01:10:19.340 she
01:10:19.460 doesn't
01:10:19.680 do
01:10:19.820 so
01:10:19.980 consistently
01:10:20.500 I
01:10:21.280 think
01:10:21.400 she
01:10:21.540 should
01:10:21.700 be
01:10:21.880 forced
01:10:22.280 to
01:10:22.460 talk
01:10:22.820 a lot
01:10:23.100 more
01:10:23.380 just
01:10:24.020 to
01:10:32.300 joy
01:10:33.080 spreader
01:10:33.660 this
01:10:34.040 country
01:10:34.340 has
01:10:34.440 ever
01:10:34.600 seen
01:10:34.860 how
01:10:35.220 did
01:10:35.400 she
01:10:35.520 disappear
01:10:35.920 I
01:10:36.220 think
01:10:36.380 they
01:10:36.520 will
01:10:36.660 do
01:10:36.840 everything
01:10:37.120 they
01:10:37.480 can
01:10:37.720 to
01:10:37.880 avoid
01:10:38.140 that
01:10:38.360 I
01:10:38.860 think
01:10:39.020 they
01:10:39.140 will
01:10:39.240 do
01:10:39.360 everything
01:10:39.620 they
01:10:39.820 can
01:10:40.000 to
01:10:40.220 make
01:10:40.340 sure
01:10:40.520 they
01:10:40.660 never
01:10:41.280 have a
01:10:41.620 conversation
01:10:42.080 about
01:10:42.440 her
01:10:42.820 again
01:10:42.960 she should
01:10:43.000 be
01:10:43.080 president
01:10:43.400 of
01:10:43.560 Harvard
01:10:44.340 I
01:11:02.300 that
01:11:02.440 be
01:11:02.680 I
01:11:02.900 like

01:12:37.040 kind of
01:12:37.240 liked
01:12:37.420 him
01:12:37.580 and
01:12:38.420 drug
01:12:38.640 addiction

01:12:39.360 real
01:12:39.560 he became
01:12:40.620 a monster

01:12:41.780 cocaine
01:12:42.440 and pills
01:12:42.920 as many
01:12:43.260 do
01:12:43.520 but
01:12:43.820 he
01:12:45.500 hated
01:12:45.800 her
01:12:46.060 really
01:12:46.880 oh he
01:12:47.280 thought
01:12:47.460 she
01:12:47.580 was
01:12:47.700 a
01:12:47.840 screaming
01:12:48.080 bitch
01:12:48.440 and
01:12:48.840 he
01:12:49.100 said
01:12:49.340 so
01:12:49.660 in
01:12:50.040 person
01:12:50.460 and
01:12:50.760 he
01:12:50.880 said
01:12:51.080 so
01:12:51.360 in
01:12:51.580 writing
01:12:51.920 on
01:12:52.220 his

01:12:54.860 a
01:12:55.020 bitch
01:12:55.260 and
01:12:55.500 stupid
01:12:55.880 and
01:12:56.240 I
01:12:56.380 think
01:12:56.500 that's
01:12:56.680 a
01:12:56.800 fair
01:12:56.920 assessment
01:12:57.300 from
01:12:58.120 someone
01:12:58.380 who
01:12:58.520 spent
01:12:58.700 his
01:12:58.860 life
01:12:59.040 living
01:12:59.300 with
01:12:59.460 her
01:12:59.560 like
01:12:59.740 he
01:12:59.900 would
01:13:00.040 know
01:13:01.040 what
01:13:01.220 Dr.
01:13:01.580 Jill
01:13:01.700 is
01:13:01.860 really
01:13:02.080 like
01:13:02.380 it's
01:13:02.560 her
01:13:02.700 stepson
01:13:03.120 Hunter
01:13:03.940 who
01:13:04.260 started
01:13:04.520 dating
01:13:04.840 his
01:13:05.060 dad
01:13:05.360 when
01:13:05.500 he
01:13:05.600 was
01:13:05.740 like
01:13:05.900 four
01:13:06.400 or
01:13:06.600 something
01:13:06.900 so
01:13:07.160 and
01:13:08.460 I
01:13:09.480 don't
01:13:09.640 know
01:13:09.840 why
01:13:10.320 Republicans
01:13:11.320 didn't
01:13:11.620 make
01:13:11.800 more
01:13:12.040 of
01:13:12.200 that
01:13:12.560 everyone
01:13:13.840 wanted
01:13:14.080 to
01:13:14.220 focus
01:13:14.440 on
01:13:14.580 the
01:13:14.700 crack
01:13:15.080 and
01:13:15.200 toe
01:13:15.480 sucking
01:13:15.720 and
01:13:15.900 everything
01:13:16.120 but
01:13:24.700 back to
01:13:24.880 what we
01:13:25.040 discussed
01:13:25.360 earlier
01:13:25.620 they're
01:13:25.820 not
01:13:25.960 used
01:13:26.180 to
01:13:26.360 fighting
01:13:26.680 bare
01:13:27.120 knuckled
01:13:27.720 brawling
01:13:28.520 style
01:13:29.040 and
01:13:29.680 they
01:13:29.880 think
01:13:30.120 that
01:13:30.260 would
01:13:30.360 have
01:13:30.460 been
01:13:30.600 beneath
01:13:30.960 them
01:13:31.260 undignified
01:13:33.000 undignified
01:13:34.180 and
01:13:34.720 these
01:13:34.860 people
01:13:35.120 for
01:13:36.360 four
01:13:36.720 years
01:13:37.120 and
01:13:38.340 this
01:13:38.560 was
01:13:38.740 not
01:13:38.980 I
01:13:39.720 mean
01:13:39.860 I
01:13:39.960 think
01:13:40.100 we
01:13:40.220 have
01:13:40.380 to
01:13:40.440 have
01:13:40.560 the
01:13:40.700 you
01:13:41.300 know
01:13:41.400 when
01:13:41.520 we
01:13:41.600 talked
01:13:41.760 about
01:13:41.960 immigration
01:13:42.420 and
01:13:42.840 our
01:13:43.140 foreign
01:13:43.400 policy
01:13:43.900 and
01:13:44.180 the
01:13:44.380 inflation
01:13:44.880 and
01:13:45.120 economy
01:13:46.180 and
01:13:46.560 all
01:13:47.380 these
01:13:47.520 things
01:13:47.660 were
01:13:47.760 taking
01:13:47.960 place
01:13:48.200 this
01:13:48.780 when
01:13:49.820 there's
01:13:50.000 a
01:13:54.700 we're
01:13:55.960 just
01:13:56.100 going
01:13:56.260 to
01:13:56.580 continue
01:13:57.280 to
01:13:57.500 destroy
01:13:57.780 this
01:13:57.960 country
01:13:58.180 we're
01:13:58.360 going
01:13:58.420 to
01:13:58.560 completely
01:13:59.020 remake
01:13:59.520 it
01:13:59.760 with

01:14:00.900 illegal
01:14:01.340 immigration

01:14:03.840 mean
01:14:04.020 this
01:14:05.060 to me
01:14:05.280 is why
01:14:05.520 I can't
01:14:05.880 understand
01:14:06.280 these
01:14:06.780 people
01:14:07.100 hate
01:14:07.400 this
01:14:07.600 country
01:14:07.940 they
01:14:08.580 hate
01:14:08.820 the
01:14:08.960 country
01:14:09.240 as
01:14:09.400 originally
01:14:09.740 founded
01:14:10.100 they
01:14:10.400 hate
01:14:10.560 the
01:14:10.700 original
01:14:11.140 constitution
01:14:12.360 they
01:14:13.540 hate
01:14:13.720 the
01:14:13.860 idea
01:14:14.220 of
01:14:14.500 the
01:14:14.700 free
01:14:14.980 born
01:14:15.160 American
01:14:15.500 people
01:14:16.020 they
01:14:16.360 hate
01:14:16.540 whites
01:14:16.900 if I
01:14:17.260 can
01:14:17.400 just
01:14:17.580 say
01:14:17.820 there's
01:14:18.500 a
01:14:18.620 lot
01:14:18.760 of
01:14:18.860 things
01:14:19.040 that
01:14:19.180 they
01:14:19.320 have
01:14:19.480 hated
01:14:19.780 for
01:14:20.160 long
01:14:20.420 and
01:14:20.680 they
01:14:20.880 intentionally
01:14:21.380 and
01:14:21.620 systematically
01:14:22.140 were
01:14:22.500 seeking
01:14:22.780 to
01:14:23.000 destroy
01:14:23.420 us
01:14:23.860 and
01:14:24.020 our
01:14:24.140 way
01:14:24.280 of
01:14:24.420 life
01:14:24.760 and
01:14:25.540 Republicans
01:14:26.040 a lot
01:14:26.620 of
01:14:26.720 Republicans
01:14:27.120 in D.C.
01:14:27.600 are going
01:14:27.920 along
01:14:28.220 with it
01:14:28.560 going
01:14:28.920 oh they're
01:14:29.820 really not
01:14:30.220 that bad
01:14:30.620 are they
01:14:30.880 yes they
01:14:31.540 are
01:14:31.820 they truly
01:14:32.380 are
01:14:32.780 and
01:14:33.700 they
01:14:34.520 would
01:14:34.740 hope
01:14:35.000 they
01:14:35.280 their
01:14:35.740 goal
01:14:36.040 I think
01:14:36.480 is to
01:14:36.840 see
01:14:37.240 this
01:14:37.540 country
01:14:37.860 cease
01:14:38.200 to
01:14:38.400 exist
01:14:38.860 as it
01:14:39.620 once
01:14:39.840 was
01:14:40.260 and
01:14:40.840 to
01:14:41.020 create
01:14:41.400 some
01:14:41.700 new
01:14:42.340 order
01:14:43.420 for
01:14:43.640 this
01:14:43.840 country
01:14:44.140 that
01:14:44.300 has
01:14:44.460 nothing
01:14:44.820 to do
01:14:45.100 with
01:14:45.220 where
01:14:45.360 we
01:14:45.500 came
01:14:50.420 no
01:14:51.000 they
01:14:51.160 wouldn't
01:14:51.540 one
01:14:51.900 person
01:14:52.340 who
01:14:52.940 I
01:14:53.200 think
01:14:53.360 is a
01:14:53.640 true
01:14:54.260 bright
01:14:54.520 spot
01:14:54.840 in
01:14:55.200 the
01:14:55.500 Republican
01:14:55.800 Party
01:14:56.180 there are
01:14:56.420 a couple
01:14:56.640 but
01:14:57.000 the
01:14:57.640 brightest
01:14:57.920 of all
01:14:58.320 in my
01:14:58.760 view
01:14:58.940 is
01:14:59.080 J.D.
01:14:59.400 Vance
01:14:59.720 who
01:15:00.720 has a
01:15:01.440 gut

01:15:02.940 just
01:15:03.140 said

01:15:03.980 legit
01:15:05.100 smart
01:15:05.500 smarter
01:15:05.840 than
01:15:06.180 I
01:15:06.520 think

01:15:07.340 like
01:15:07.560 actual
01:15:08.400 high IQ
01:15:08.860 character

01:15:10.220 ton
01:15:10.340 of those
01:15:10.580 in
01:15:10.720 politics

01:17:44.860 mean
01:17:44.960 I
01:17:45.160 don't
01:17:45.360 think
01:17:45.640 that
01:17:45.800 beating
01:17:46.140 someone
01:17:46.660 a lot
01:17:46.920 of
01:17:46.940 these
01:17:47.020 people
01:17:47.180 are
01:17:47.340 stupid
01:17:47.680 like

01:17:51.540 the
01:17:51.620 same
01:17:52.020 conclusion
01:17:52.380 I
01:17:52.560 have
01:17:52.840 that
01:17:53.680 if
01:17:53.800 you're
01:17:53.920 a
01:17:54.020 corporate
01:17:54.220 propagandist
01:17:54.980 you
01:17:55.100 can't

01:17:55.440 intelligent
01:17:55.860 or
01:17:56.060 smart
01:17:56.200 because
01:17:56.480 you
01:17:56.620 can't
01:17:56.840 be
01:17:56.920 a
01:17:57.020 free
01:17:57.160 thinker
01:17:57.460 and

01:17:57.800 to
01:17:58.560 accept
01:17:58.880 no
01:18:00.100 self
01:18:00.640 respect
01:18:01.020 but what
01:18:01.820 I
01:18:01.980 found
01:18:02.220 amazing
01:18:02.800 as
01:18:03.840 somebody
01:18:04.000 did
01:18:04.240 it
01:18:04.320 for
01:18:04.440 living
01:18:04.740 my
01:18:05.080 whole
01:18:05.280 life
01:18:05.580 was
01:18:05.960 not
01:18:06.160 just
01:18:06.360 that
01:18:06.480 he
01:18:06.560 won
01:18:06.700 the
01:18:06.820 arguments
01:18:07.200 he's
01:18:07.440 smarter
01:18:07.700 than
01:18:07.900 they
01:18:08.040 are
01:18:08.180 is
01:18:09.020 that
01:18:09.140 he
01:18:09.200 did
01:18:09.340 something
01:18:09.540 that
01:18:09.680 I
01:18:09.820 could
01:18:09.980 not
01:18:10.120 do
01:18:10.320 which
01:18:10.500 is
01:18:10.720 remain
01:18:11.500 kind
01:18:11.800 of
01:18:11.900 cheerful

01:18:17.320 control
01:18:17.800 and
01:18:18.180 I
01:18:18.740 couldn't
01:18:19.080 do
01:18:19.280 that
01:18:19.460 I
01:18:19.620 could
01:18:19.960 probably
01:18:20.180 beat
01:18:20.540 Margaret
01:18:20.900 Brennan
01:18:21.300 in
01:18:21.480 an
01:18:21.620 argument
01:18:21.940 I
01:18:22.240 hope
01:18:22.600 but
01:18:23.360 I
01:18:23.760 would
01:18:23.920 come
01:18:24.140 off
01:18:24.440 as
01:18:24.620 sneering
01:18:25.220 and
01:18:25.400 angry
01:18:25.840 and
01:18:26.220 anti

01:18:27.080 you
01:18:27.540 know
01:18:27.640 what
01:18:27.740 I
01:18:28.620 JD
01:18:29.520 was
01:18:29.780 amazing
01:18:30.460 I
01:18:30.800 could
01:18:31.200 not
01:18:31.360 do
01:18:31.540 that
01:18:31.740 no
01:18:31.980 I
01:18:32.120 couldn't
01:18:32.300 either
01:18:32.440 I
01:18:32.620 get
01:18:32.800 fired
01:18:33.080 up
01:18:33.300 and
01:18:33.440 kind
01:18:33.660 of
01:18:33.760 get
01:18:33.880 a little
01:18:34.140 snarky
01:18:34.640 and
01:18:34.760 very
01:18:35.900 pugilistic
01:18:36.600 at
01:18:36.780 times
01:18:37.020 and
01:18:37.140 he's
01:18:37.300 very
01:18:37.480 calm
01:18:37.880 dignified
01:18:38.640 very
01:18:39.560 rational
01:18:40.100 highly
01:18:41.060 intelligent
01:18:41.480 but I
01:18:42.180 think
01:18:42.340 that
01:18:42.560 to
01:18:42.960 me
01:18:43.140 is
01:18:43.380 again
01:18:43.740 going
01:18:43.960 back
01:18:44.180 to
01:18:44.280 what
01:18:44.420 Trump
01:18:44.580 did
01:18:44.780 with
01:18:44.940 him
01:18:45.180 we're
01:18:45.860 all
01:18:46.020 in
01:18:46.180 on
01:18:46.340 this
01:18:46.720 a
01:18:47.180 young
01:18:47.500 VP
01:18:47.860 who
01:18:48.660 hopefully
01:18:49.020 we're
01:18:49.180 going
01:18:49.260 to
01:18:49.280 have
01:18:49.380 a
01:18:49.440 very
01:18:49.620 successful
01:18:50.000 four
01:18:50.260 years
01:18:50.440 with
01:18:50.600 Trump
01:18:50.880 he's
01:18:51.500 going
01:18:51.600 to
01:18:51.680 use
01:18:51.860 JD
01:18:52.200 effectively
01:18:52.800 set
01:18:53.220 up
01:18:53.360 JD
01:18:53.640 in
01:18:54.320 the
01:18:54.420 future
01:18:54.720 and
01:18:54.880 then
01:18:54.980 all
01:18:55.100 sudden
01:18:55.360 because
01:18:56.520 going
01:18:58.000 back
01:18:58.180 to
01:18:58.300 what
01:18:58.400 I
01:18:58.500 said
01:18:58.620 earlier
01:18:58.860 you
01:18:59.420 don't

01:18:59.940 we've
01:19:00.060 been
01:19:00.160 going

01:19:04.020 four
01:19:04.240 years
01:19:04.580 I

01:19:16.700 of
01:19:16.820 JD
01:19:17.080 and

01:20:32.000 can I
01:20:46.300 just use
01:20:46.920 this opportunity
01:20:47.380 because I can't
01:20:47.820 control myself
01:20:48.440 to throw out
01:20:49.420 something that I'm
01:20:50.160 legit concerned
01:20:51.040 about
01:20:51.440 yep
01:20:51.760 not directly
01:20:53.160 related to
01:20:53.740 Trump
01:20:54.000 or even
01:20:54.340 politics
01:20:54.860 but
01:20:55.180 so we've
01:20:56.680 had all
01:20:57.060 these problems
01:20:57.520 with the
01:20:57.740 labor market
01:20:58.260 and COVID
01:20:58.640 made them
01:20:59.020 much worse
01:20:59.460 paying people
01:20:59.960 to stay
01:21:00.280 home
01:21:00.440 so they
01:21:00.760 did
01:21:01.040 so
01:21:01.660 a lot
01:21:03.280 of the
01:21:03.440 service
01:21:03.700 industry
01:21:04.000 is being
01:21:04.580 replaced
01:21:04.960 by
01:21:05.240 robots
01:21:05.760 like you
01:21:06.080 check out
01:21:06.460 at the
01:21:06.700 airport
01:21:07.080 at the
01:21:08.200 kiosk
01:21:08.740 and you
01:21:08.960 know what
01:21:09.440 I mean
01:21:09.600 there's
01:21:09.800 no one
01:21:10.060 there
01:21:10.300 automation
01:21:10.760 so I've
01:21:12.600 watched for
01:21:13.180 the past
01:21:13.660 four years
01:21:14.880 as the
01:21:15.520 left
01:21:15.700 systematically
01:21:16.260 has destroyed
01:21:16.920 law enforcement
01:21:17.560 and order
01:21:18.040 in our
01:21:18.380 cities
01:21:18.680 and like
01:21:19.140 who would
01:21:19.660 want to be
01:21:19.940 a cop
01:21:20.300 at this
01:21:20.560 point
01:21:21.760 you don't
01:21:21.980 have
01:21:22.240 the legal
01:21:22.860 protections
01:21:23.220 you had
01:21:23.700 it's
01:21:23.900 physically
01:21:24.240 dangerous
01:21:24.760 and everyone
01:21:25.200 hates you
01:21:25.680 and you
01:21:25.920 don't get
01:21:26.140 paid
01:21:26.300 anything
01:21:26.640 so you're
01:21:27.840 going to
01:21:28.000 have a
01:21:28.420 massive
01:21:28.860 crisis
01:21:29.640 you have
01:21:30.480 a massive
01:21:30.840 crisis
01:21:31.360 in law
01:21:32.400 enforcement
01:21:32.740 because no one
01:21:33.160 wants to be
01:21:33.560 a cop
01:21:34.020 that void
01:21:36.020 will be filled
01:21:36.420 by technology
01:21:37.240 filled by
01:21:38.280 drones
01:21:38.800 and it'll be
01:21:39.580 filled by
01:21:40.060 other
01:21:40.420 technology
01:21:41.120 it'll be
01:21:41.780 basically
01:21:42.840 replaced
01:21:43.860 by a
01:21:44.720 tech
01:21:45.720 surveillance
01:21:46.560 state
01:21:47.160 that will
01:21:47.980 make civil
01:21:48.520 liberties
01:21:48.880 absolutely
01:21:49.940 impossible
01:21:51.080 you can't
01:21:51.660 have civil
01:21:52.120 liberties
01:21:52.520 you cannot
01:21:53.300 in a
01:21:53.960 in a
01:21:55.120 pan-omnicon
01:21:56.040 or whatever
01:21:56.320 they call it
01:21:56.780 in a
01:21:57.020 in a
01:21:57.340 world where
01:21:57.960 technology
01:21:58.480 knows
01:21:58.820 everything
01:21:59.180 that you're
01:21:59.540 doing
01:21:59.880 right
01:22:00.320 and saying
01:22:01.320 and maybe
01:22:01.980 even thinking
01:22:02.600 and I don't
01:22:03.800 feel like
01:22:04.220 people are
01:22:04.640 worried enough
01:22:05.200 about that
01:22:05.840 like you
01:22:07.140 could make
01:22:07.500 New York
01:22:07.840 City safe
01:22:08.640 right
01:22:09.080 with drones
01:22:09.900 right
01:22:10.660 you could
01:22:11.360 prevent
01:22:11.740 any traffic
01:22:12.720 violations
01:22:13.360 whatsoever
01:22:13.820 with robots
01:22:14.720 but what's
01:22:15.180 behind it
01:22:15.760 there's nothing
01:22:16.580 neutral in life
01:22:17.380 with total control
01:22:18.560 of the population
01:22:19.380 it is
01:22:20.100 through technology
01:22:20.980 so I
01:22:21.460 we're moving
01:22:22.120 toward that
01:22:22.420 I don't hear
01:22:22.800 anybody saying
01:22:23.660 anything about it
01:22:24.500 I remember
01:22:24.920 having a conversation
01:22:25.600 with the head
01:22:25.900 of a tech
01:22:26.200 company
01:22:26.540 pretty prominent
01:22:27.440 one
01:22:27.780 Molly Hemingway
01:22:28.660 was there
01:22:29.020 with me
01:22:29.560 talking about
01:22:30.540 the algorithms
01:22:31.080 and how biased
01:22:31.740 they were
01:22:31.940 man is she
01:22:32.260 a smart chick
01:22:32.960 she's very smart
01:22:33.660 she's one of my
01:22:34.120 great person
01:22:34.920 one of my
01:22:35.280 favorite people
01:22:35.760 in DC
01:22:36.100 I totally agree
01:22:36.960 and
01:22:37.940 we were sitting
01:22:39.640 there talking
01:22:40.040 with this person
01:22:40.580 he goes no
01:22:41.060 algorithms are
01:22:41.860 neutral
01:22:42.280 afterwards I
01:22:44.120 looked at her
01:22:44.400 I was like
01:22:44.600 he just lied
01:22:45.500 to us
01:22:45.940 nothing is neutral
01:22:46.680 nothing's neutral
01:22:47.420 in life
01:22:47.820 that to me
01:22:48.640 is one of the
01:22:49.200 things that I
01:22:49.680 think is the
01:22:50.040 greatest
01:22:50.500 it's neutral
01:22:51.480 like science
01:22:53.260 it's neutral
01:22:54.260 take the COVID
01:22:55.080 back
01:22:55.300 so that to me
01:22:56.900 there's nothing
01:22:58.000 neutral in life
01:22:59.380 at all
01:23:00.600 and so
01:23:01.080 whatever influence
01:23:02.700 is going behind
01:23:03.680 the AI
01:23:04.400 and the technology
01:23:05.640 will be biased
01:23:07.740 in one direction
01:23:08.480 or another
01:23:08.960 and then you
01:23:10.620 have a situation
01:23:11.380 of who's controlling
01:23:12.180 the controllers
01:23:12.780 who controls
01:23:13.980 that technology
01:23:14.700 what is their
01:23:15.360 end goal
01:23:15.760 what do they
01:23:16.140 believe about
01:23:16.740 human rights
01:23:17.440 what do they
01:23:18.240 believe about
01:23:18.840 civil liberties
01:23:19.440 what do they
01:23:19.820 believe about
01:23:20.280 basic freedom
01:23:21.060 I'm concerned
01:23:22.140 about the
01:23:22.500 whole AI
01:23:23.040 singularity
01:23:24.060 of course
01:23:25.080 this to me
01:23:26.160 the Sunsoft
01:23:28.420 bank guy
01:23:29.000 soon
01:23:30.340 he spent
01:23:31.680 tens
01:23:32.180 when he
01:23:32.640 announces
01:23:33.000 you're going
01:23:33.220 to spend
01:23:33.440 100 billion
01:23:33.940 to create
01:23:34.260 jobs here
01:23:34.720 in America
01:23:35.040 I'm like
01:23:35.360 please go
01:23:36.240 away
01:23:36.480 I don't
01:23:37.340 want you
01:23:37.540 anywhere near
01:23:37.960 this country
01:23:38.360 he has
01:23:38.680 spent
01:23:39.000 tens of
01:23:40.360 billions
01:23:40.880 of dollars
01:23:41.600 trying to
01:23:42.660 advance and
01:23:43.200 accelerate
01:23:43.680 singularity
01:23:44.420 in which
01:23:44.860 AI
01:23:45.200 is really
01:23:45.580 truly
01:23:45.840 doing the
01:23:46.380 governing
01:23:46.620 of this
01:23:46.960 world
01:23:47.260 and we
01:23:48.100 lose a lot
01:23:48.540 of our
01:23:48.860 humans are
01:23:50.600 not running
01:23:51.160 the world
01:23:51.740 it's singularity
01:23:52.660 it's AI
01:23:53.140 it's all
01:23:53.920 this technology
01:23:54.440 it's actually
01:23:54.920 doing it
01:23:55.220 because they'll
01:23:55.480 do it better
01:23:55.960 it defeats
01:23:56.820 sovereignty
01:23:57.280 and free
01:23:57.720 will
01:23:57.940 and therefore
01:23:58.300 humanity
01:23:58.900 that's what
01:23:59.280 I'm saying
01:23:59.480 it completely
01:24:00.480 annihilates
01:24:01.060 the idea
01:24:01.520 of humanity
01:24:02.460 and this is
01:24:03.400 the guy
01:24:03.600 that's been
01:24:03.860 doing it
01:24:04.260 so I think
01:24:05.220 this to me
01:24:06.220 is I know
01:24:07.780 Elon has said
01:24:08.480 some things
01:24:08.920 that we need
01:24:09.900 to have a
01:24:10.300 conversation
01:24:10.700 about AI
01:24:11.100 I don't think
01:24:11.480 we're having
01:24:11.760 a deeper
01:24:12.120 we need to have
01:24:12.600 a deeper
01:24:12.820 conversation
01:24:13.260 about AI
01:24:13.880 singularity
01:24:15.140 and where
01:24:15.520 we're actually
01:24:15.940 headed
01:24:16.220 and what
01:24:16.580 do we want
01:24:16.900 our future
01:24:17.260 to look like
01:24:17.660 so you can't
01:24:18.080 introduce
01:24:18.640 any massive
01:24:20.120 disruptive
01:24:20.620 change
01:24:21.340 really against
01:24:23.000 the will
01:24:23.360 of the population
01:24:24.080 you need
01:24:24.560 consent
01:24:25.000 and the only
01:24:25.480 way you
01:24:25.740 get consent
01:24:26.300 is by
01:24:26.800 terrifying
01:24:27.300 them
01:24:27.780 and making
01:24:28.600 them feel
01:24:29.120 like your
01:24:30.240 solution
01:24:31.180 while imperfect
01:24:32.480 is better
01:24:33.500 than what
01:24:33.820 they have
01:24:34.200 we're not
01:24:34.600 giving them
01:24:34.960 the truth
01:24:35.360 but keeping
01:24:36.140 them ignorant
01:24:36.540 what I'm
01:24:37.140 saying is you
01:24:37.520 create chaos
01:24:38.520 you destroy
01:24:39.820 your cities
01:24:40.400 state of fear
01:24:40.920 you create a
01:24:42.000 state of fear
01:24:42.420 you do to
01:24:44.000 people with
01:24:44.680 crime and
01:24:45.340 immigration
01:24:45.880 what COVID
01:24:47.140 did
01:24:47.600 so Michael
01:24:48.560 Crichton
01:24:49.020 so they'll
01:24:49.380 accept anything
01:24:49.980 yeah Michael
01:24:50.480 Crichton wrote a
01:24:51.040 great book
01:24:51.440 state of fear
01:24:52.040 I actually cite
01:24:53.560 him in the
01:24:53.880 book
01:24:54.200 in which he's
01:24:55.520 talking about
01:24:55.960 the political
01:24:57.640 science of
01:24:58.440 global warming
01:24:59.200 and how it
01:25:00.160 puts people
01:25:01.280 into perpetual
01:25:01.780 state of fear
01:25:02.460 to achieve the
01:25:03.460 certain political
01:25:03.960 goals of people
01:25:05.020 what they want
01:25:05.600 to achieve
01:25:05.960 but the whole
01:25:07.540 idea of keeping
01:25:08.080 people in a
01:25:08.740 perpetual state
01:25:09.400 of fear
01:25:09.800 to manipulate
01:25:10.340 them into
01:25:10.860 getting what
01:25:11.360 these people
01:25:11.840 want to
01:25:12.300 achieve the
01:25:12.720 future
01:25:12.940 they want
01:25:13.340 which might
01:25:14.320 or might
01:25:14.700 not be
01:25:15.100 typically not
01:25:15.760 beneficial to
01:25:16.600 the rest of
01:25:16.960 the people
01:25:17.280 but it's
01:25:18.240 fear
01:25:18.540 it's a
01:25:19.400 tactic of
01:25:19.920 fear
01:25:20.200 like COVID
01:25:20.640 is going
01:25:20.840 to kill
01:25:21.100 you all
01:25:21.460 so you
01:25:21.960 should stay
01:25:22.280 inside your
01:25:22.660 house and
01:25:23.020 wear a mask
01:25:23.500 and be six
01:25:24.040 feet apart
01:25:24.340 which is all
01:25:24.740 made up by the
01:25:25.220 way
01:25:25.340 which isn't
01:25:26.860 that funny
01:25:27.220 where they say
01:25:27.640 trust the
01:25:28.040 science
01:25:28.420 and then they
01:25:29.500 go well
01:25:29.840 yeah men
01:25:30.240 can be
01:25:30.500 women
01:25:30.700 women
01:25:30.960 men
01:25:31.320 but you
01:25:32.240 only trust
01:25:32.600 the science
01:25:32.880 when we
01:25:33.060 say what
01:25:33.440 science is
01:25:34.160 science is
01:25:34.960 what we
01:25:35.200 say it
01:25:35.460 is
01:25:35.740 but in
01:25:36.220 that
01:25:36.380 situation
01:25:36.820 it's not
01:25:37.340 the intellectual
01:25:39.400 incoherence of
01:25:40.260 the left
01:25:40.560 drives me
01:25:41.000 nuts
01:25:41.420 but that's
01:25:42.260 what happens
01:25:42.640 when you
01:25:42.940 kind of
01:25:44.480 you
01:25:44.660 when you
01:25:45.480 cut the
01:25:45.760 cord to
01:25:46.060 the
01:25:46.160 transcendent
01:25:46.700 this idea
01:25:47.140 of a
01:25:47.320 transcendent
01:25:47.700 creator
01:25:48.040 and natural
01:25:48.600 inherent
01:25:48.860 rights
01:25:49.160 and something
01:25:49.540 above and
01:25:50.000 beyond is
01:25:50.340 infinite
01:25:50.720 and then you
01:25:52.080 all just
01:25:52.480 devolve into
01:25:52.980 this theater
01:25:53.500 of the absurd
01:25:54.160 because whatever
01:25:55.080 you say at the
01:25:55.640 moment is right
01:25:56.120 if there's no
01:25:56.620 absolute society
01:25:57.540 becomes absolute
01:25:58.300 so whatever
01:25:59.920 society says in
01:26:00.680 that moment
01:26:00.960 becomes absolute
01:26:01.600 so men can
01:26:02.060 be women
01:26:02.360 and women
01:26:02.680 men
01:26:03.000 and you just
01:26:04.040 make it up
01:26:04.400 as you go
01:26:04.700 along
01:26:04.980 and that's
01:26:05.400 why I think
01:26:05.760 kind of some
01:26:06.260 of the stuff
01:26:06.560 is being
01:26:06.800 exposed
01:26:07.340 Fauci
01:26:08.060 six feet
01:26:08.780 well you
01:26:09.240 just made
01:26:09.520 that up
01:26:09.920 the vaccine
01:26:11.740 wasn't a
01:26:12.060 vaccine
01:26:12.420 I remember
01:26:13.060 being castigated
01:26:13.860 on a certain
01:26:14.440 network that I
01:26:15.220 think people
01:26:15.560 would have been
01:26:16.020 surprised
01:26:16.480 for saying that
01:26:17.820 I thought the
01:26:18.700 shot at best
01:26:19.440 was a therapeutic
01:26:20.120 shot
01:26:20.560 and you would
01:26:21.460 have thought
01:26:21.720 I shot
01:26:22.320 somebody's dog
01:26:22.880 who castigated
01:26:25.500 you
01:26:25.740 you know
01:26:26.780 some network
01:26:27.280 that would have
01:26:27.960 been surprising
01:26:28.480 for people
01:26:29.060 the network
01:26:31.300 that was
01:26:32.000 requiring
01:26:33.380 vaccines
01:26:34.060 COVID vaccines
01:26:34.840 for their
01:26:35.140 employees
01:26:35.500 you mean
01:26:35.740 a lot
01:26:35.940 of people
01:26:36.220 were
01:26:36.440 Newsmax
01:26:37.060 by the way
01:26:37.820 was
01:26:38.180 nothing
01:26:39.640 is faker
01:26:40.160 than Newsmax
01:26:40.820 sorry
01:26:41.680 I have
01:26:43.020 to tell you
01:26:44.760 I think
01:26:45.360 the COVID
01:26:46.020 tests
01:26:47.620 was a test
01:26:49.540 that many
01:26:50.480 people failed
01:26:51.420 on the
01:26:52.800 conservative
01:26:53.200 side of
01:26:53.720 things
01:26:54.100 because
01:26:54.540 they believed
01:26:56.020 the lies
01:26:57.200 told by the
01:26:58.480 so-called
01:26:58.900 experts
01:26:59.500 it was a
01:27:00.040 test
01:27:00.460 they failed
01:27:01.040 miserably
01:27:01.500 and I
01:27:01.940 actually got
01:27:02.520 texts from
01:27:03.060 people
01:27:03.420 a couple
01:27:04.320 weeks in
01:27:04.820 when I
01:27:05.080 realized
01:27:05.640 this is
01:27:06.660 not
01:27:07.000 I have
01:27:08.020 real
01:27:08.180 questions
01:27:08.560 here
01:27:08.720 I don't
01:27:08.920 think
01:27:09.120 this is
01:27:09.400 what
01:27:09.540 people
01:27:09.820 cracking
01:27:10.460 it up
01:27:10.760 to be
01:27:11.100 and they
01:27:13.600 were texting
01:27:13.880 me
01:27:13.980 what's up
01:27:14.200 with all
01:27:14.440 your
01:27:14.560 boomer
01:27:14.920 tweets
01:27:15.320 what's
01:27:16.380 going on
01:27:16.760 here
01:27:16.900 like
01:27:17.100 this is
01:27:17.560 serious
01:27:17.920 stuff
01:27:18.420 I said
01:27:19.640 why do
01:27:19.980 you
01:27:20.100 accept
01:27:20.580 blindly
01:27:21.460 that
01:27:22.460 the CDC
01:27:23.080 and the
01:27:23.500 NIH
01:27:23.800 are
01:27:25.000 suddenly
01:27:25.300 purest
01:27:25.680 driven
01:27:25.860 snow
01:27:26.240 when over
01:27:27.020 the last
01:27:27.320 several
01:27:27.540 years
01:27:27.800 we've
01:27:28.040 seen
01:27:28.280 the DOJ
01:27:28.840 and the
01:27:29.100 FBI
01:27:29.400 and other
01:27:29.720 parts of
01:27:30.060 this state
01:27:30.500 be weaponized
01:27:31.200 against
01:27:31.660 and used
01:27:32.360 for political
01:27:32.800 purposes
01:27:33.260 and now
01:27:34.000 suddenly
01:27:34.360 different
01:27:35.300 branch of
01:27:35.800 the same
01:27:36.180 tree
01:27:36.540 is somehow
01:27:37.020 purest
01:27:37.460 driven
01:27:37.640 snow
01:27:38.000 like I'm
01:27:38.960 sorry
01:27:39.200 I just
01:27:39.640 think
01:27:39.860 in my
01:27:40.120 you know
01:27:40.800 if you
01:27:41.120 think
01:27:41.320 through
01:27:41.540 this
01:27:41.800 in a
01:27:42.240 reasonable
01:27:42.540 rational
01:27:42.960 way
01:27:43.340 I think
01:27:44.180 you should
01:27:44.500 really strongly
01:27:45.160 question
01:27:45.680 anything
01:27:46.100 that's
01:27:46.380 coming out
01:27:46.720 the CDC
01:27:47.240 and the
01:27:48.000 NIH
01:27:48.340 or anything
01:27:49.120 else
01:27:49.380 because I
01:27:49.720 think
01:27:49.860 there's a
01:27:50.180 certain
01:27:50.380 political
01:27:50.740 element
01:27:51.180 to what
01:27:51.480 they're
01:27:51.620 actually
01:27:51.880 pushing
01:27:52.200 and I
01:27:53.920 think
01:27:54.040 that's
01:27:54.260 how you
01:27:54.460 had
01:27:54.640 like I
01:27:55.280 was kind
01:27:55.620 of stunned
01:27:56.120 when so
01:27:56.520 many
01:27:56.660 conservatives
01:27:57.060 fell for
01:27:57.520 Wharton
01:27:57.780 like why
01:27:58.760 can't you
01:27:59.040 just step
01:27:59.420 back and
01:27:59.800 go this
01:28:00.340 is heavily
01:28:01.040 politicized
01:28:01.840 this is
01:28:02.780 probably
01:28:03.040 heavily
01:28:03.380 politicized
01:28:04.680 I'm not
01:28:06.340 sure I
01:28:06.740 don't trust
01:28:07.180 them so
01:28:07.920 why should
01:28:08.220 I trust
01:28:08.500 I don't
01:28:08.800 trust them
01:28:09.160 either
01:28:09.440 I've
01:28:11.380 told
01:28:11.480 I'm so
01:28:12.120 this is
01:28:12.920 another thing
01:28:13.220 that I
01:28:13.740 think we
01:28:14.000 need to
01:28:14.280 start really
01:28:15.020 emphasizing
01:28:16.720 a lot of
01:28:17.460 us
01:28:17.620 like think
01:28:18.560 for yourself
01:28:19.160 I tell my
01:28:19.740 kids all
01:28:20.000 the time
01:28:20.300 question
01:28:20.720 everything
01:28:21.200 yeah
01:28:22.020 except for
01:28:23.060 me I'm
01:28:23.500 your benevolent
01:28:24.020 dictator
01:28:24.420 well you're
01:28:25.720 the patriarch
01:28:26.360 that's right
01:28:26.880 no question
01:28:27.340 there's no
01:28:28.320 question
01:28:28.620 yes
01:28:29.040 but that's
01:28:30.040 how you
01:28:30.200 get to
01:28:30.400 the truth
01:28:31.000 you have
01:28:32.080 to question
01:28:32.500 everything
01:28:32.860 to actually
01:28:33.560 get to
01:28:33.900 the truth
01:28:34.200 of what
01:28:34.440 is
01:28:34.620 and don't
01:28:35.460 accept
01:28:35.800 something
01:28:36.140 on its
01:28:36.460 face value
01:28:37.100 why should
01:28:38.540 I take
01:28:38.860 orders from
01:28:39.320 anyone who
01:28:39.680 pushed the
01:28:40.060 vax
01:28:40.480 ever again
01:28:41.860 yeah
01:28:42.340 is that fair
01:28:43.660 I mean I
01:28:44.120 don't that
01:28:44.500 seems like a
01:28:44.980 pretty just
01:28:45.420 simple
01:28:45.660 I'm just
01:28:45.940 I don't
01:28:47.040 believe you
01:28:47.400 I'm sorry
01:28:48.620 I don't
01:28:49.160 believe you
01:28:49.560 until you
01:28:49.960 can actually
01:28:50.500 prove beyond
01:28:51.300 a shadow
01:28:51.880 of a doubt
01:28:52.340 that what
01:28:52.660 you're telling
01:28:53.020 me is true
01:28:53.380 I don't
01:28:53.720 believe you
01:28:54.160 and I think
01:28:55.200 that should be
01:28:55.520 our entire
01:28:55.840 approach
01:28:56.040 all the
01:28:56.300 government
01:28:56.520 right now
01:28:56.920 I mean
01:28:57.500 this is why
01:28:58.180 the Bobby
01:28:58.620 Kennedy
01:28:58.900 nomination
01:28:59.340 is essential
01:29:00.240 it's like
01:29:00.700 whatever you
01:29:01.100 think of
01:29:01.400 Bobby
01:29:01.620 Kennedy
01:29:01.940 I love
01:29:02.380 Bobby
01:29:02.620 Kennedy
01:29:02.880 but
01:29:03.080 don't agree
01:29:04.040 with him
01:29:04.240 on everything
01:29:04.620 of course
01:29:05.260 but
01:29:05.840 Bobby
01:29:06.780 Kennedy
01:29:07.060 was the
01:29:07.900 opposition
01:29:08.260 to that
01:29:08.840 and
01:29:09.820 he should be
01:29:10.700 rewarded
01:29:11.140 hold of
01:29:12.000 big pharma
01:29:12.640 I think
01:29:15.860 that to me
01:29:16.940 is a step
01:29:17.320 in the right
01:29:17.640 direction
01:29:18.040 of what's
01:29:19.660 going on
01:29:20.080 it's just
01:29:20.980 funny that
01:29:21.320 the people
01:29:21.680 who make
01:29:22.020 Xanax
01:29:22.460 who should
01:29:22.760 be in
01:29:23.020 prison for
01:29:23.460 making
01:29:23.680 Xanax
01:29:24.080 in my
01:29:24.360 opinion
01:29:24.660 kills a lot
01:29:25.320 of people
01:29:25.700 destroys so
01:29:26.640 many lives
01:29:27.180 those people
01:29:28.640 are lecturing
01:29:29.220 me about how
01:29:29.640 Bobby Kennedy
01:29:30.160 is bad
01:29:30.580 you make
01:29:30.860 Xanax
01:29:31.480 and you're
01:29:32.140 telling me
01:29:32.500 Bobby Kennedy
01:29:33.080 is bad
01:29:33.620 who by the
01:29:34.060 way also
01:29:34.440 started the
01:29:34.940 opioid
01:29:35.260 Christ
01:29:35.620 all the
01:29:36.020 things that
01:29:36.320 have gone
01:29:36.560 through big
01:29:37.000 pharma
01:29:37.260 over the
01:29:37.660 years
01:29:37.840 opioids are
01:29:39.000 obvious
01:29:39.360 Xanax is
01:29:39.920 very subtle
01:29:40.460 everyone's
01:29:40.880 on Xanax
01:29:41.480 try to get
01:29:42.500 off Xanax
01:29:43.100 you know
01:29:43.800 these people
01:29:44.800 I think
01:29:45.360 they're criminals
01:29:45.760 that's my
01:29:46.140 personal opinion
01:29:46.880 I think
01:29:47.220 I hope
01:29:48.280 that the
01:29:48.560 American people
01:29:49.200 over the
01:29:49.780 last nine
01:29:50.540 years
01:29:50.820 especially
01:29:51.440 everything
01:29:51.860 that's
01:29:52.060 taken
01:29:52.200 place
01:29:52.580 would have
01:29:55.100 a healthy
01:29:56.080 dose of
01:29:56.900 skepticism
01:29:57.620 about anything
01:29:58.560 coming out
01:29:59.140 of our
01:29:59.700 government
01:30:00.240 and our
01:30:00.840 corporate
01:30:01.080 propagandists
01:30:01.980 moving forward
01:30:03.000 and go I'm
01:30:03.480 not going to
01:30:04.160 accept you at
01:30:04.760 face value
01:30:05.480 until you can
01:30:06.880 prove be
01:30:07.340 verifiable
01:30:08.220 proof
01:30:08.940 of what
01:30:09.520 you're
01:30:09.660 saying
01:30:09.920 I think
01:30:11.620 that'd be a
01:30:11.980 very healthy
01:30:12.440 approach for
01:30:12.880 us moving
01:30:13.220 forward
01:30:13.580 yeah I agree
01:30:15.380 with that
01:30:15.660 completely
01:30:16.100 so just
01:30:16.760 bottom line
01:30:17.260 for us
01:30:18.020 having
01:30:18.320 spent
01:30:19.120 by the way
01:30:19.480 when you
01:30:19.700 wrote this
01:30:20.240 book
01:30:20.500 like what
01:30:21.300 kind of
01:30:21.580 mood
01:30:21.760 were you
01:30:22.060 in
01:30:22.260 it must
01:30:23.160 have been
01:30:23.420 felt
01:30:23.740 pretty
01:30:23.980 dark
01:30:24.400 I was
01:30:25.840 I was
01:30:26.800 in a
01:30:27.940 mood
01:30:28.740 of my
01:30:29.660 rights
01:30:30.260 as a
01:30:30.640 freeborn
01:30:31.100 American
01:30:31.660 and the
01:30:33.200 country I
01:30:33.840 was promised
01:30:34.640 constitutional
01:30:35.680 republic
01:30:36.200 government
01:30:36.600 of by
01:30:37.000 and for
01:30:37.220 the people
01:30:37.720 has been
01:30:39.400 annihilated
01:30:40.100 has been
01:30:40.680 destroyed
01:30:41.040 we have
01:30:41.380 an illusion
01:30:41.760 of it
01:30:42.180 we are
01:30:44.160 being lectured
01:30:45.000 that somehow
01:30:46.560 our betters
01:30:47.600 who are these
01:30:47.980 unelected
01:30:48.480 bureaucrats
01:30:49.120 who are a
01:30:49.460 credentialed
01:30:49.940 idiocracy
01:30:50.540 somehow are
01:30:52.200 the ones that
01:30:52.740 should be
01:30:53.060 governing us
01:30:53.780 and ruling
01:30:54.540 us
01:30:55.040 and I
01:30:58.000 wanted to
01:30:58.580 have a
01:30:58.920 conversation
01:30:59.260 I wanted to
01:30:59.680 start a
01:30:59.940 conversation
01:31:00.440 with the
01:31:00.720 American
01:31:00.980 people
01:31:01.340 with the
01:31:01.620 book
01:31:01.940 of
01:31:03.580 these
01:31:04.380 people
01:31:04.640 do not
01:31:04.960 have
01:31:05.120 your
01:31:05.240 best
01:31:05.480 interests
01:31:05.860 in
01:31:06.000 mind
01:31:06.340 they
01:31:07.200 have
01:31:07.580 taken
01:31:07.920 away
01:31:08.140 your
01:31:08.300 birthright
01:31:08.740 as a
01:31:09.060 freeborn
01:31:09.400 American
01:31:09.740 people
01:31:10.200 they have
01:31:11.220 annihilated
01:31:11.780 the
01:31:11.980 constitutional
01:31:12.560 republic
01:31:13.100 they have
01:31:13.540 destroyed
01:31:13.940 the machinery
01:31:14.520 of the
01:31:14.920 republic
01:31:15.340 which is
01:31:16.320 the best
01:31:16.660 protector of
01:31:17.240 your natural
01:31:17.640 inherent
01:31:17.960 rights
01:31:18.400 this
01:31:19.320 and they
01:31:20.340 did it
01:31:20.580 intentionally
01:31:21.020 I mean
01:31:21.720 the
01:31:22.020 progressives
01:31:22.860 don't
01:31:23.780 believe
01:31:24.080 in
01:31:24.240 natural
01:31:24.580 inherent
01:31:24.880 rights
01:31:25.300 they're
01:31:25.860 actually
01:31:26.140 vehemently
01:31:26.720 opposed
01:31:27.020 to a
01:31:27.240 rights
01:31:27.400 based
01:31:27.580 government
01:31:27.840 of course
01:31:28.300 they
01:31:28.820 thought
01:31:30.340 that
01:31:30.640 rights
01:31:31.420 do not
01:31:31.840 I mean
01:31:32.100 Frank
01:31:32.380 Goodenow
01:31:32.700 who was
01:31:33.100 really
01:31:33.460 one of
01:31:34.020 the
01:31:34.400 guys
01:31:35.460 that
01:31:35.640 structured
01:31:36.120 the
01:31:36.320 administrative
01:31:36.760 state
01:31:37.060 through
01:31:37.200 administrative
01:31:37.580 law
01:31:38.000 said
01:31:38.540 that
01:31:38.840 an
01:31:39.180 individual
01:31:39.520 does
01:31:39.760 not
01:31:39.960 possess
01:31:40.220 rights
01:31:40.560 from
01:31:40.760 his
01:31:40.940 creator
01:31:41.240 but
01:31:41.420 from
01:31:41.620 his
01:31:41.800 society
01:31:42.200 his
01:31:42.420 society
01:31:42.780 is
01:31:42.900 the
01:31:42.980 one
01:31:43.060 that
01:31:43.200 gives
01:31:43.500 an
01:31:43.720 individual
01:31:44.060 his
01:31:44.300 rights
01:31:44.600 because
01:31:45.300 they
01:31:45.420 believed
01:31:45.680 the
01:31:45.860 state
01:31:46.080 should
01:31:46.240 give
01:31:46.420 rights
01:31:46.840 back
01:31:47.820 to
01:31:47.980 the
01:31:48.100 people
01:31:48.400 if
01:31:48.620 it
01:31:48.720 was
01:31:48.820 a
01:31:48.960 benefit
01:31:49.200 to
01:31:49.380 the
01:31:49.500 state
01:31:49.780 you
01:31:50.400 can't
01:31:50.620 have
01:31:50.760 natural
01:31:51.060 inherent
01:31:51.400 God
01:31:51.740 given
01:31:51.920 rights
01:31:52.320 because
01:31:52.840 it
01:31:53.060 becomes
01:31:53.620 a
01:31:54.160 monkey
01:31:55.200 wrench
01:31:55.620 in
01:31:56.500 their
01:31:56.820 progressive
01:31:57.480 idea
01:31:58.720 of the
01:31:58.960 state
01:31:59.120 of
01:31:59.240 salvation
01:31:59.600 efficiency
01:32:00.100 towards
01:32:00.460 progress
01:32:01.460 all of
01:32:03.820 these
01:32:03.960 things
01:32:04.200 that have
01:32:04.420 taken
01:32:04.620 place
01:32:05.020 we have
01:32:05.820 to have
01:32:05.980 this
01:32:06.140 conversation
01:32:06.740 we have
01:32:09.060 not
01:32:09.340 had
01:32:09.520 this
01:32:09.700 conversation
01:32:10.180 about
01:32:10.460 who
01:32:10.660 we are
01:32:10.900 as a
01:32:11.120 people
01:32:11.380 what
01:32:11.800 our
01:32:11.940 birthright
01:32:12.360 is
01:32:12.700 what
01:32:13.180 our
01:32:13.340 rights
01:32:13.640 are
01:32:13.800 what
01:32:13.940 our
01:32:14.080 God
01:32:14.280 given
01:32:14.480 rights
01:32:14.740 are
01:32:14.840 what
01:32:15.020 government
01:32:15.400 should
01:32:15.600 actually
01:32:15.880 look
01:32:16.140 like
01:32:16.520 today
01:32:17.440 and
01:32:18.800 let's
01:32:18.980 have
01:32:19.100 that
01:32:19.240 conversation
01:32:19.780 and then
01:32:20.340 have
01:32:20.560 the
01:32:20.700 conversation
01:32:21.100 about
01:32:21.340 how
01:32:21.560 we
01:32:21.720 get
01:32:21.880 back
01:32:22.160 to
01:32:22.320 where
01:32:22.540 we
01:32:22.760 started
01:32:23.140 the
01:32:25.380 Constitution
01:32:26.000 is
01:32:26.300 the
01:32:26.400 greatest
01:32:26.600 document
01:32:27.180 political
01:32:27.640 document
01:32:28.100 the
01:32:28.240 world
01:32:28.360 has
01:32:28.460 ever
01:32:28.540 seen
01:32:28.800 and
01:32:29.900 it
01:32:29.960 was
01:32:30.080 written
01:32:30.280 by
01:32:30.500 men
01:32:30.780 who
01:32:30.920 are
01:32:31.000 not
01:32:31.160 perfect
01:32:31.500 by
01:32:31.700 the
01:32:31.780 way
01:32:31.920 they
01:32:32.100 had
01:32:32.240 their
01:32:32.340 own
01:32:32.460 share
01:32:32.640 of
01:32:32.740 faults
01:32:41.120 God
01:32:41.400 had
01:32:41.520 given
01:32:41.740 rights
01:32:42.160 they
01:32:42.980 were
01:32:43.100 optimistic
01:32:43.540 that
01:32:43.900 even
01:32:44.140 though
01:32:44.480 we
01:32:44.740 knew
01:32:44.940 they
01:32:45.180 were
01:32:45.300 imperfect
01:32:45.660 human
01:32:45.940 beings
01:32:46.220 who
01:32:46.360 should
01:32:46.500 never
01:32:46.680 have
01:32:46.840 consolidated
01:32:47.460 power
01:32:47.980 they
01:32:48.820 could
01:32:48.980 form
01:32:49.220 a
01:32:49.360 government
01:32:49.680 that
01:32:50.020 protected
01:32:50.420 those
01:32:50.680 natural
01:32:50.980 God
01:32:51.200 given
01:32:51.400 rights
01:32:51.680 and
01:32:51.800 took
01:32:51.940 none
01:32:52.060 of
01:32:52.120 them
01:32:52.220 away
01:32:52.460 and
01:32:53.160 it
01:32:53.280 provided
01:32:53.620 for
01:32:53.780 this
01:32:54.000 amazing
01:32:55.480 small
01:32:56.100 agrarian
01:32:56.700 country
01:32:57.180 kind
01:32:57.880 of on
01:32:58.040 the
01:32:58.140 edge
01:32:58.280 of
01:32:58.340 that
01:32:58.500 Eurocentric
01:32:59.660 world
01:33:00.100 in the
01:33:00.740 late
01:33:00.900 1700s
01:33:01.700 to
01:33:02.140 become
01:33:02.540 honestly
01:33:03.340 I would
01:33:03.620 say
01:33:03.740 the
01:33:03.860 greatest
01:33:04.060 nation
01:33:04.340 the
01:33:04.480 world
01:33:04.620 has
01:33:04.720 ever
01:33:04.860 seen
01:33:05.120 how
01:33:05.780 does
01:33:05.900 that
01:33:06.000 happen
01:33:06.200 it's
01:33:06.300 not
01:33:06.380 by
01:33:06.500 chance
01:33:06.820 it's
01:33:07.880 because
01:33:08.080 these
01:33:08.300 guys
01:33:08.600 knew
01:33:08.960 they
01:33:09.140 understood
01:33:09.420 human
01:33:09.700 nature
01:33:10.000 they
01:33:10.160 fully
01:33:11.480 understood
01:33:11.960 a
01:33:12.200 transcendent
01:33:12.680 creator
01:33:12.920 with
01:33:13.080 natural
01:33:13.360 inherent
01:33:13.600 rights
01:33:13.900 we're
01:33:14.340 going to
01:33:14.520 create
01:33:14.720 this
01:33:14.900 constitutional
01:33:15.340 republic
01:33:15.840 we're
01:33:16.800 going to
01:33:17.100 create
01:33:17.340 the
01:33:17.480 greatest
01:33:17.700 amount
01:33:17.920 of
01:33:18.040 freedom
01:33:18.260 as
01:33:18.460 possible
01:33:18.880 for
01:33:19.140 the
01:33:19.300 flourishing
01:33:19.880 of
01:33:20.040 freedom
01:33:20.320 and
01:33:21.040 prosperity
01:33:21.900 and
01:33:23.360 the
01:33:23.540 progressives
01:33:24.160 completely
01:33:24.980 fundamentally
01:33:25.520 rejected
01:33:26.020 that turn
01:33:26.460 of the
01:33:26.640 20th
01:33:26.940 century
01:33:27.180 and said
01:33:27.440 no
01:33:27.600 we don't
01:33:27.820 believe
01:33:28.040 in
01:33:28.160 that
01:33:34.620 these
01:33:35.280 unelected
01:33:35.740 bureaucrats
01:33:36.200 who
01:33:36.340 through
01:33:36.560 applied
01:33:36.920 science
01:33:37.480 will
01:33:38.420 lead
01:33:38.640 us
01:33:38.760 to
01:33:38.900 a
01:33:39.040 greater
01:33:39.240 future
01:33:39.540 who
01:33:39.780 truly
01:33:40.500 believe
01:33:40.960 in
01:33:41.100 the
01:33:41.220 apotheosis
01:33:41.820 of
01:33:42.060 mankind
01:33:42.360 they
01:33:42.980 believe
01:33:43.380 that
01:33:43.660 history
01:33:44.280 was
01:33:44.600 on
01:33:44.860 this
01:33:45.000 upward
01:33:45.300 linear
01:33:45.600 progress
01:33:46.040 that
01:33:46.220 the
01:33:46.380 end
01:33:46.560 of
01:33:46.700 history
01:33:46.920 would
01:33:47.080 be
01:33:47.160 the
01:33:47.300 perfection
01:33:47.660 of
01:33:47.860 mankind
01:33:48.220 dead
01:33:48.780 serious
01:33:49.020 no
01:33:49.400 so
01:33:49.540 these
01:33:49.780 are
01:33:49.900 some
01:33:50.080 of
01:33:50.160 the
01:33:50.280 poisonous
01:33:50.620 ideas
01:33:51.240 behind
01:33:51.740 what's
01:33:52.040 taking
01:33:52.260 place
01:33:52.560 in
01:33:52.660 this
01:33:52.780 country
01:33:53.020 today
01:33:53.320 hilarious
01:33:53.980 ideas
01:33:54.620 they're
01:33:54.880 like
01:33:55.080 so
01:33:55.620 dumb
01:33:56.120 they're
01:33:56.600 so
01:33:57.100 dumb
01:33:57.540 rantings
01:33:58.260 of
01:33:58.540 deluded
01:33:58.960 madmen
01:33:59.400 is
01:33:59.540 what
01:33:59.660 i
01:33:59.780 describe
01:34:00.120 in
01:34:00.280 the
01:34:00.380 book
01:34:00.600 of
01:34:00.960 will
01:34:01.200 wilson
01:34:01.800 and
01:34:02.000 herbert
01:34:02.280 crowley
01:34:02.840 and
01:34:03.180 frank
01:34:04.320 good
01:34:04.580 now
01:34:04.960 and
01:34:05.140 all
01:34:05.360 these
01:34:05.640 founders
01:34:06.040 of
01:34:06.580 the
01:34:06.700 progress
01:34:07.000 john
01:34:07.300 burgess
01:34:07.840 who
01:34:08.140 by the
01:34:08.360 way
01:34:08.480 was
01:34:08.600 the
01:34:08.740 founder
01:34:08.940 of
01:34:09.120 political
01:34:09.480 science
01:34:10.040 in
01:34:10.160 america
01:34:10.580 vehemently
01:34:11.660 rejected
01:34:12.140 a
01:34:12.820 rights
01:34:13.040 based
01:34:13.240 government
01:34:13.620 and
01:34:14.380 he's
01:34:14.620 considered
01:34:14.880 the
01:34:15.060 father
01:34:15.320 of
01:34:15.600 political
01:34:15.920 science
01:34:16.220 in
01:34:16.340 america
01:34:16.600 so
01:34:16.760 we
01:34:16.860 should
01:34:16.980 probably
01:34:17.180 have
01:34:17.320 questions
01:34:17.660 about
01:34:17.900 the
01:34:18.040 whole
01:34:18.280 exercise
01:34:18.860 of
01:34:19.000 political
01:34:19.280 science
01:34:19.680 so
01:34:20.500 yeah
01:34:20.660 i was
01:34:20.900 writing
01:34:21.140 this
01:34:21.340 book
01:34:21.660 and
01:34:23.260 we
01:34:23.400 are
01:34:23.540 called
01:34:24.100 deplorables
01:34:25.300 and
01:34:25.820 irredeemables
01:34:26.800 and
01:34:27.240 disruptive
01:34:27.820 simply
01:34:29.240 because
01:34:29.640 we're
01:34:29.900 asking
01:34:30.320 for a
01:34:30.780 restoration
01:34:31.180 of
01:34:32.580 our
01:34:32.740 rights
01:34:33.080 we're
01:34:33.980 asking
01:34:34.280 for a
01:34:34.660 restoration
01:34:35.060 of
01:34:35.520 what
01:34:35.640 we
01:34:35.800 had
01:34:36.260 in
01:34:36.860 some
01:34:37.000 ways
01:34:37.280 and
01:34:38.600 that's
01:34:38.800 why
01:34:38.920 i
01:34:39.020 consider
01:34:39.240 myself
01:34:39.520 a
01:34:39.660 restorationist
01:34:40.300 not
01:34:40.500 a
01:34:40.600 conservative
01:34:40.960 but
01:34:41.920 going
01:34:42.120 back
01:34:42.380 to
01:34:42.500 what
01:34:42.620 the
01:34:42.760 founders
01:34:43.140 were
01:34:43.400 trying
01:34:43.660 to
01:34:43.780 do
01:34:43.920 during
01:34:44.140 the
01:34:44.280 american
01:34:44.540 revolution
01:34:44.960 they
01:34:45.200 were
01:34:45.340 simply
01:34:45.660 asking
01:34:46.100 that
01:34:46.340 we
01:34:46.480 have
01:34:46.720 our
01:34:46.900 rights
01:34:47.180 as
01:34:47.360 englishmen
01:34:47.820 restored
01:34:48.320 you
01:34:48.600 have
01:34:48.740 taken
01:34:49.020 them
01:34:49.180 away
01:34:49.480 we
01:34:49.700 want
01:34:49.980 them
01:34:50.120 restored
01:34:50.540 and

01:34:55.040 to
01:34:55.160 that
01:34:55.300 same
01:34:55.520 situation
01:34:56.040 today
01:34:56.580 where
01:34:57.800 i

01:35:10.540 the
01:35:10.660 american
01:35:10.940 people
01:35:11.380 on
01:35:11.660 all
01:35:11.900 fronts
01:35:16.720 for
01:35:17.080 the
01:35:17.200 ruling
01:35:17.440 class
01:35:17.940 we're
01:35:18.860 actually

01:35:35.140 the
01:35:35.260 political
01:35:35.540 courage
01:35:35.920 to
