A man in a tactical vest armed with a loaded shotgun and additional rounds tried to storm the Capitol before he was apprehended. Is this an isolated incident, or the beginning of a trend? And if so, what's the cause?
00:02:36.000A man in a tactical vest, armed with a loaded shotgun and additional rounds, got out of vehicle and stormed towards the Capitol before he was apprehended, charged and arrested we don't know his motive just yet, and things like this do happen, so maybe it's nothing, but I got to be honest, considering just the other day, there was a transgender unhinged individual who went up and shot up his family at this hockey ring.
00:03:01.000There are t-shirts being sold celebrating political violence, the ICE attacks, threats, violence escalation, all of that at the ground level.
00:03:11.000And then at the political level, you have the redistricting where Virginia recently got approval from their Supreme Court to wipe out four Republican seats.
00:03:18.000So the conversation's basically coming to an end.
00:03:20.000I look at a story like this in D.C. and I say, ah, that freaks me out.
00:03:24.000Because the issue is, it's always a grain of sand that eventually makes the heap, right?
00:03:30.000At what point is this not just some one-off crazy person, but the beginnings of a pattern or some kind of trend?
00:03:36.000And maybe, just maybe, we all beg, we hope, and we pray that this was just some lone nut crazy guy who believes crazy things who tried attacking the Capitol by himself for some dumb reason.
00:03:48.000The scarier thing is that, of course, he's by himself, but what if he's motivated by mainstream ideology of any faction?
00:03:57.000Presumably, we're going to see this on the left because of the violence coming from the left.
00:04:00.000But if it is this fervor generated by the online resentment or just general political disarray, that's where things are getting scary.
00:04:10.000And so I look at this story, and there's a bunch of others where you can see that there's no conversation happening between the left and the right, only escalation.
00:04:17.000And the question that we've asked on this show is: where is the off-ramp?
00:04:20.000So let's analyze this story and see if there's actually anything going on there.
00:04:23.000And then we've got some fun stories for you.

00:09:48.000Police identified the man as Carter Camacho of Smyrna, Georgia, and said he acted alone.
00:09:55.000They are working to determine a motive.
00:09:56.000Capitol Police Chief Michael Sullivan said Camacho, armed with a loaded shotgun, carrying additional rounds, drove a white Mercedes SUV near the Capitol before exiting and running toward the building.
00:10:05.000He was intercepted by Capitol Police, who drew their firearms and told him to drop his gun and get on the ground.
00:10:10.000Camacho complied and laid down before being arrested and taken into custody.
00:10:14.000Who knows what could have happened if we didn't have officers?
00:10:17.000The individual had a tactical vest on, the chief said, as well as tactical gloves.
00:10:22.000Police have charged Camacho with carrying a rifle without a license, having an unregistered fireman and ammunition, as well as unlawful activities.
00:10:29.000He was not previously known to Capitol Police.
00:10:32.000Now, I will say we hear stories about this from time to time of some whack-aloon doing something crazy at the Capitol.
00:11:13.000I made this point on the noon live, and I've said it previously, is the very scary thing that's happening in the United States is we're getting a higher and higher proportion of the population that literally has nothing to lose.
00:12:18.000But about this moron who showed up to the Capitol with a tactical shotgun, what I can say, this is the most I can say: there are increased security questions, threats, and problems at the U.S. Capitol over last year.
00:12:44.000And so, are these are like, I don't know if classified is the right word, but they don't want people going on and talking about the security issues that they're experiencing.
00:12:52.000There are some security issues at the Capitol.
00:12:55.000And all I can say, this is not a one-off.
00:14:01.000And look, I'm one person, but this is happening increasingly to members of Congress, but specifically Republican members of Congress.
00:14:11.000Of course, there's security issues for people like Elon Omar and AOC, and given their stature and all that, and things that they talk about.
00:14:20.000But there are increasing threats to all Republican members of Congress.
00:14:25.000If you go look at the last appropriations bill, what's called the Ledge Branch Bill, you will see in there that there is a pot of money that was put in to increase security for members of Congress.
00:14:38.000I'm actually the vice chair of that subcommittee, so I can't talk about the other stuff too much.
00:15:26.000I mean, I want just universal carry in the Capitol.
00:15:30.000I think we should be able to capital carry and all that stuff.
00:15:32.000You can get the concealed weapons permit to carry within the District of Columbia, Washington, D.C., as a member of Congress, but you got to go through this very lengthy process of getting the concealed permit, which basically nobody gets in Washington.
00:15:46.000Why would a member of Congress have to do that?
00:15:48.000Like, are we really concerned that a member of Congress is going to just go rogue and start killing people?
00:16:11.000Yeah, like some Congress members will just get out of session and then they'll go out somewhere in DC and start like jacking people in their wallet.
00:18:37.000It's going to be a question of what the Senate does on that bill.
00:18:40.000I know a lot of people listening are probably really upset that Pelosi's retiring because now you're going to be able to pick your stocks based on what she's picking.
00:18:51.000But to be fair, Inverse Kramer beats me.
00:18:54.000Inverse Kramer be just on inverse Kramer.
00:18:58.000For those that don't know, Jim Kramer, the famous stock TV guy, if you only were to have bought the opposite of what he said to buy, you would have better returns than Nancy Pelosi, who is accused of insider trading to enrich herself.
00:21:08.000With all due respect to this young man who was the victim of this, conservatives at the macro level have consistently just been like, well, slow down, Democrats.
00:21:17.000And the Democrats have been like, I'm going to go shoot up a Tesla station.
00:21:25.000And even after leftists went to ICE facilities and CPP facilities and shot cops and shot at people, killing innocent bystanders, they're still like, for what reason would ICE be scared when we show up screaming in their faces with guns?
00:23:07.000So we're checking Down Detector to determine whether or not YouTube is experiencing problems.
00:23:12.000But in fact, Down Detector is now down as well.
00:23:14.000And so I believe it may have just recovered, but there were some reporting that Down Detector is down, which is another perfect example of irony.
00:23:23.000Anyway, you were going to say something.
00:23:25.000Yeah, look, the Democrats, when they say it, they mean it.
00:23:55.000So I wanted to ask you, because back earlier, you're talking about with Antifa, and obviously they're ramping up their threats and they're acting them out, which is the most terrifying part.
00:24:04.000But following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, obviously getting Antifa labeled as an FTO was like massive.
00:24:54.000West Virginia is very, very, very good on these laws in terms of protecting your land.
00:24:59.000West Virginia, and correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding, because we went through this with security, you're allowed to defend yourself if someone trespasses on open land.
00:25:07.000Meaning, if you've got like five-acre property, you're taking the garbage out and someone is coming onto your property, threatening you, you don't have to wait.
00:27:03.000Now, when you're at Thanksgiving, you buy it for Christmas for your liberal aunt uncle and you say, look, it's a book of all the times the left threatened to murder people and then did, or punched people and celebrated it.
00:27:28.000But if we want to get all the good stuff from blue sky, like the funny thing is, even Will Stansel, who's another liberal guy, has this viral post where he's like, I need to get off blue sky because you people have gone insane.
00:27:39.000When the leftists who are insane call the other leftists even more insane, we got a problem.
00:27:44.000But genuinely, if you're a member of the Discord community, maybe we will put together a project where we start compiling as many of these posts celebrating, encouraging, or engaging in violence.
00:27:53.000And then we make that coffee table book.
00:27:55.000And then, you know, people can buy it for a decent price, put it under coffee table, and then they can show their liberal friends who don't believe them.
00:28:10.000The point you bring up about Will Stansel is actually, I mean, it's crazy because this is an argument that Peterson was making 12, 13 years ago.
00:28:18.000You know, I forget who it was that kind of stabbed him in the back, but he had a public Twitter exchange with him.
00:28:24.000And he was like, look, they're going to do it to you.
00:28:30.000And Will Stansel has been, you know, a very, very far left kind of dude for a long time.
00:28:36.000And now, because I'm not even sure that he's did anything actually significantly bad, they just in Minneapolis decided that he wasn't pure enough and they started going after him.
00:28:48.000And then once blood is in the water, then it's over.
00:28:52.000I mean, you remember in the last administration, the greatest threats to America were like practicing Catholics and white nationalists that are roaming the streets.
00:29:24.000The most dangerous people are out there are actually the white liberal women, white wine resistor moms that are out there just because the white wine makes you more bubbly, right?
00:29:37.000And you're like, you know what I was saying before the show is that the right has testosterone, but not too much.
00:30:37.000But I mean, you know, the way that the left behaves, like at the very least, you can now clearly see that the left is a problem in the U.S.
00:31:00.000And to the point we were making earlier today, like a lot of the reason why right-wingers don't fight back is because they have something to lose.
00:31:11.000We have this post from Graham Linehan, who is highlighting a post from this far lefty named Will Stancil, who has realized the left is insane.
00:31:19.000So let me just give you the quick gist.
00:31:21.000A leftist has realized that Blue Sky is full of crazier leftists than him, and he doesn't want to play this game anymore.
00:31:27.000Graham says, so funny, a bunch of people who knew they'd soon be answering tough questions on child experimentation, trans violence, et cetera, all left X for another site, which they promptly turned into such a woke nightmare that even Will Stancil can't take it.
00:31:41.000He said on Blue Sky, man, every day I wonder if I shouldn't just delete my account on here, maybe.
00:31:46.000Opening Blue Sky makes me want to actually walk in front of a truck.
00:31:50.000I don't think people on here understand how crazy they've gotten.
00:31:53.000It's this endless feedback loop of self-radicalization built around some of the most toxic personalities I've ever encountered.
00:31:59.000It would be nice to talk about politics without being in a blizzard of seething hatred and abuse all the time.
00:32:05.000And then he says they're largely blocked, but it doesn't matter because we share a social space and many of them have tens of thousands of followers and their absolute derangement is making the social space intolerable.
00:32:15.000I love that this leftist who does exactly what he's describing to the rest of us is now experiencing exactly what he does to him.
00:32:32.000I wish we could, and someday it'll all kind of be out there, but the amount of threats that Republican congressmen get, death threats, death threats on a daily basis is staggering the number.
00:32:48.000And of course, you got to look at all of these because you don't know if somebody's saying something on the internet and then it becomes a reality, right?
00:32:54.000And many times that's, they'll post something and then something happens, right?
00:33:00.000And we've had not just me, many people, many, many members, Republicans, people showing up at their house, this, that, threatening their families, showing up to schools, all of this stuff.
00:33:13.000They are going to find you wherever you are, and they're going to threaten you and perhaps even inflict violence on you because you do not agree with them.
00:33:21.000Well, they were green lit at every step of the way.
00:33:23.000Like, I mean, you saw like 2016 at the campuses when the Ben Shapiro, Milo would turn up and they would literally be flooded, firebombed, et cetera, total impunity.
00:33:31.000I mean, even saw during COVID, like everyone always forgets this.
00:33:33.000Tucker Carlson's house got like sieged by like a ton of leftist protests.
00:35:19.000Also, the punch and that's the crazy because then they would post pictures of like the guys storming Normandy and they were like, this is what an anti-fascist looked like.
00:35:27.000And then if you regurgitate the average political beliefs of a World War II infantryman, and they call you a Nazi.
00:35:33.000Well, that was the Freedom Tunes, one of Seamus' biggest cartoons, where the woke bring World War II soldiers to the future to help them fight the Nazis.
00:35:41.000And then the World War II soldiers are like, wait a minute, you're doing what?
00:35:45.000When they realize that the left is actually trying to do it, the bear of New York City's name is what?
00:35:53.000I want to throw this in the mix real quick and give a shout out to the left for becoming QAnon.
00:35:57.000Ellen Barkin, she's a prominent lefty.
00:36:00.000She's from like, she's like a TV show producer or something like that.
00:36:03.000She said, the number of people in this administration connected to Jeffrey Epson is stupefying.
00:36:07.000It is correct to say we are a country run by a cabal of real-life pedophiles and sex traffickers whose crimes are more horrendous than we can imagine.
00:37:08.000I was in being a libertarian kind of dude, right?
00:37:10.000Like, and I'm not a libertarian anymore.
00:37:13.000And one of the reasons is a lot of the things that you kind of assumed were true as a libertarian, they seem to not be, right?
00:37:20.000Like, I mean, I understand if you're a bear long enough, bad things are going to happen.
00:37:23.000But like, if you, if, if you look at the, the, the tariffs, like, they, it has not panned out the way all the libertarians and the Cato Institute and all these people said.
00:37:31.000And I'm, I, I'll be the first person to admit I was wrong.
00:37:34.000I was, I was like, I've said, you know, on the show, I was like, I don't think tariffs are probably a good idea.
00:37:38.000You know, I'm not an economist, but like, obviously, because I was wrong about it, you know, but then again, there were so many people that are libertarians that are like swearing up and down.
00:37:46.000You know, the tariffs are going to do this, the tariffs are going to do that.
00:37:48.000Well, if you say the tariffs are going to do, if you say bad thing is going to happen long enough, the bad thing will happen.
00:37:52.000And then you can be like, oh, look, see, I was right.
00:38:11.000I haven't looked at the chat's talking about how stupid I am.
00:38:15.000But no, I mean, to your credit, I mean, that's now me, obviously, being a West Virginian, we are very pro-tariff.
00:38:23.000Like, this is something that we have watched globalization destroy us over the last several decades from NAFTA and so on and so forth.
00:38:30.000I mean, it has happened where steel mills just shutting down, our job shipped overseas.
00:38:35.000So for me, I was, you know, two feet in.
00:38:38.000First, one of the first bills I introduced was a reciprocal tariff bill.
00:38:41.000That's something that I feel really strongly about.
00:38:44.000But at the end of the day, yes, balanced trade is a good thing.
00:38:49.000It is a good thing to have balanced trade.
00:38:51.000And we have the ability to balance it and to reinvigorate manufacturing in the United States.
00:38:58.000It actually evens the playing field for our manufacturers because that cheap, cheap product from China now has to compete at the same price point as our manufacturers.
00:39:09.000And the consumer, which they have said, oh, this is going to get passed down to the consumer.
00:39:26.000But there was this video that I did a comment on for the Tim Pool show this morning, which is a guy claiming he's explaining why MAGA is a cult.
00:39:34.000And NID basically says that they're not driven by facts or policy.
00:39:40.000And it's clearly wrong because anybody who tracks the polling data knows that Trump only won through a coalition, which included libertarians and moderates who two to one lean right, or at least did a year ago.
00:39:59.000The point that I bring up, the reason why I bring this up is that there's reasons why I supported Donald Trump and I voted for him.
00:40:03.000And tariffs are one of the biggest issues.
00:40:06.000And all these libs come out as academic experts on the issue of tariffs now, having never cared about this in the past.
00:40:12.000But I can tell you exactly why it mattered to me and skateboarding.
00:40:15.000So here's the way a skateboard's made.
00:40:18.000They get some lumber from either the Pacific Northwest or Canada.
00:40:22.000It's a North American rock maple, either Canadian or American.
00:40:25.000Send it to China, where a Chinese laborer will make these boards for pennies in the dollar, and then send it back to the U.S. That's actually a waste of energy.
00:40:34.000But because a Chinese peasant is willing to work for a cheaper rate than an American, we don't make skateboards here anymore.
00:40:41.000And over the last 15 years, the skateboard industry has collapsed because there's no more skate industry.
00:40:49.000If you don't make skateboards, there's no skateboarding jobs.
00:40:52.000So how are you going to sponsor a professional skateboarder if there's no company making skateboards that needs to advertise that they make skateboards because they're all made in China?
00:40:59.000So right now in Southeast Asia, skateboarding is bigger than ever.
00:41:04.000They're opening skate parks in theme parks.
00:41:24.000Because what happens then is we tear down a tree in the United States, send it to China who says tariff on that lumber to their factories.
00:41:33.000So now that lumber is going up by 100%.
00:41:36.000Then they make a skateboard, send it to the U.S., and the U.S. says tariff on that skateboard.
00:41:40.000It turns a Chinese-made skateboard from $35 upwards of $100 a board.
00:41:47.000The American-made boards that we sell at Boone's HQ are $35 boards.
00:41:51.000And then we sell them for $55 because a portion goes to the rider, a portion goes to cover general administrative costs.
00:41:56.000And then we have our profit margin, which is relatively low.
00:41:59.000But if you start tariffing China, we stop having to compete with peasants in third world countries and we can bring our culture industries back.
00:42:09.000Yeah, look, this is the only workforce on the face of the planet that has to compete with every worker in the world in their own country.
00:42:15.000I mean, like, that's we are the only ones.
00:42:19.000And so, and of course, there's a national security component to this that I've been really hot on: is that if we don't have internalized supply chains and we're not able to make things here in the United States, that will be a problem down the road.
00:42:34.000You look at World War II, where we turned, you know, Singer-Sewing Company and that started making gun parts and IBM and everybody else into the war effort, right?
00:42:44.000There is a point, there's a deterrent factor to having an industrial base, not talking about defense industrial, an industrial base that can deter adversaries because their capacity to outbuild them.
00:42:55.000That's why Andrew's got such a great idea, the defense company, right?
00:42:59.000They want to build like modern weapons, but they want to use existing parts and technology.
00:43:04.000So that way, if something goes, like if they need to make a thousand of them, they don't have to have all this special manufacturing for it.
00:43:11.000They can go, it's the defense industry kind of idea of like run down to Radio Shack.
00:43:18.000And I'm aging, dating myself there, but to be able to buy the parts you need right there available in the market already.
00:43:24.000And the whole tariff conversation was just like people were arguing past each other.
00:43:27.000I was arguing with this libertarian guy, and I was talking, I was talking about, yeah, I know, and I was talking about the tariffs, and I was like, no, we need tariffs, we need to protect our industry against like getting undercut by like, I use Bengalis as Banglash as a specific example.
00:43:41.000And he's like, okay, well, if you introduce tariffs to keep the manufacturing sector in America stimulated, you need to bring in more migrants.
00:43:46.000And I was like, I don't think you understand.
00:43:48.000I'm making the argument that I don't want to compete against people from Bangladesh for money and labor and all these things.
00:43:53.000And it's just like he doesn't understand.
00:43:59.000Now, I do want to defend libertarians a little bit and give them a shout out because as much as I can disagree on where the policy goes, I respect that we always agree on the facts.
00:44:08.000That I know that the libertarians can come on the show and we'll agree, like, here's base reality.
00:44:13.000Now let's argue how it should go after this.
00:44:16.000And we disagree, so I'll make fun of them, but it's okay because we're friends.
00:44:40.000With the redistricting effort that we are seeing across the country, there are no longer going to be swing districts.
00:44:46.000It's going to be Democrat districts and Republican districts, and winning as the opposition party, not going to happen.
00:44:52.000Now, the scary thing is, this means the conversation has ended because there's no more political debate.
00:44:58.000The Democrat in the district can say to the Republicans, Nana, you can't win no matter what you do.
00:45:02.000I don't have to pander to you anymore.
00:45:04.000This means in these districts where they might try and be moderate and say, no, no, we're not going to be in favor of insert far-left policy or insert far-right policy.
00:45:11.000Now they're going to be like, far-left it is, because I'm in a primary and I got to beat this other Democrat, not a Republican.
00:45:18.000So that means at the federal level, what are we going to see?
00:45:21.000You combine this with geographic hyperpolarization.
00:45:26.000Conservative-leaning individuals have left California and New York, which means those districts, so California, New York, are going to lose congressional seats.
00:45:35.000However, it means the remaining districts with less moderate and conservative voices, the primaries are going to be socialist.
00:45:42.000So typically the primary is around the range in the party from the moderate Democrat to the far left.
00:45:49.000And you've got to kind of pander in between because there's going to be New York moderate Democrats who are going to be like, I don't know about that child sex change stuff.
00:45:55.000Well, those moderates have left because of the insanity of New York.
00:45:58.000And now this is shifting the overton window of the Democratic Party.
00:46:02.000So now you're going to have, okay, sex changes for minors after 12, but, you know, not before, and then sex changes for minors at any age.
00:46:12.000So at the federal level, you are going to have extremely far left.
00:46:16.000And I said, there's not going to be any far right.
00:46:19.000It's going to be like moderate, slow down their Democrat types because conservatives are still, even in deep red places, not functioning all that well.
00:46:53.000They're floating around randomly, but they still follow the pack.
00:46:55.000Well, and also like a big problem is on the right are activist base mixed podcasts where on the left, the activist base lives kills people.
00:47:02.000They either kill people or they get involved in like their like their like state or even county uh Democrat Party.
00:47:08.000Like, for example, in California, if you look at Berkeley and you go, like New York Times always puts out like the precinct by precinct voting map, there's precincts in Berkeley, California, probably other places, but I saw in Berkeley where the Green Party outperformed the Democrat Party.
00:47:20.000So it's like the activist base in the Democrat Party is very involved in the way things go.
00:47:25.000And if they don't get their way, they'll literally just go and vote for the Green Party in like these deepest red places.
00:47:29.000Where in the Republican Party, people just get like demoralized and just step away from the table entirely.
00:47:34.000So the one thing that, and this will shift it even more, right, left Voting Rights Act.
00:47:42.000So when the Voting Rights Act gets, and I believe it'll be struck down, those blue seats that are there just by the nature of we have to carve out a minority district in southern states due to the voting rights act.
00:47:56.000Once that gets struck down, all those seats, I mean, look, you got Democrat, Democrats hold seats in Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina.
00:48:04.000I mean, all these types of places because you have to carve out these districts.
00:48:48.000The projection for the 2026 midterm election is that Democrats will be up by, I think it's like five seats by sheer brute force, not by the actual election results.
00:48:59.000So again, I'll stress, after redistricting is over, you will see solid blue with some, with some strong blue, solid red with some strong red, meaning there's no swing districts and Democrats outnumber Republicans.
00:49:12.000There's not going to be a conversation.
00:49:14.000Yeah, I'm just, I think the Voting Rights Act would go the right way for us, but it won't happen before the actual 2026 elections.
00:49:21.000They got a rule by July 1, but that's passed primaries for a lot of states, so that won't matter.
00:49:26.000This 10-1 map, look, there's one last chance to stop it.
00:49:30.000If you live in Virginia, there's a referendum that's going to go out.
00:49:47.000Go out and get everybody you know to vote to stop this referendum.
00:49:52.000Virginia is a great example for what their plans are for the country because that's a state that's like, what, at best, what, 53, 47 probably?
00:49:59.000And so it's like, you know, you see California, New York, it's like, that's what they can do with a razor-thin majority with the entire country if they are to get back in power.
00:50:06.000We just got to make D.C. square again.
00:51:19.000And then we have more room to build more arc to Trumps, too.
00:51:22.000Like, there's a there's a yeah, there you go.
00:51:25.000I've seen every time I go to a roundabout now and I see a green space, I just see an arc every single time with Trump's face just right in the middle looking at you.
00:51:32.000Yeah, you know, because the proposals came out, and one is like really gaudy with like gold all over it.
00:51:36.000I'm like, I want that one, I want that one actually.
00:52:29.000And when you have a federal Congress where the left is unified and the right is a permanent minority, you are going to have effective no representation.
00:52:39.000Well, this means people are eventually going to say, I'm not going to let you open the border to 30 million more people.
00:52:45.000And so if you can't speak, then what do people do?
00:53:30.000And I don't necessarily disagree with that, but he is making the much lighter and weaker moves that are not actually dealing with the issues.
00:53:37.000And I think what we've seen already is that you can just do things.
00:53:42.000The Democrats certainly have for a long time, and they don't care what's true.
00:53:47.000So again, I made reference to this video earlier in the day that I commented on where a guy says MAGA's occult.
00:53:52.000And he said, it's because federal agents killed two people and they make excuses for it.
00:53:57.000It's like, well, I can give you all the reasons in the world why people on the right and moderates have argued whether or not there was a justification for the shooting of Alex Predi or of Renee Good.
00:54:06.000Not that the entirety of the right is celebrating it, but the issue is that Democrats arrested Trump's lawyers.
00:54:13.000I want to make sure everyone understands this because I know you do, but the liberals don't know the facts.
00:54:17.000They don't understand what's going on in the world.
00:54:19.000Democrats had Trump's legal counsel arrested for simply being his legal counsel under the argument that providing legal counsel to Trump was a criminal conspiracy, despite the fact it is constitutionally protected.
00:54:33.000Any criminal can hire a lawyer to give him advice on what he can or can't do.
00:54:37.000And the left argued to me on the Culture War show, or a leftist did, a liberal, that, well, she was advising on crimes.
00:54:45.000When you are running a business and you don't know if you're allowed to do certain things, like let's take a call she, for instance, is it insider trading, right?
00:54:54.000If I call my lawyer and say, is it insider trading if I make a trade on something that I know the results to because I know someone in Congress, let's say they go, well, if you're not involved in the trade and the information from this member of Congress is in any way public, not necessarily widespread, you're good.
00:55:11.000Then I go, okay, so make the trade, right?
00:55:13.000Then the next administration says, you're under arrest.
00:55:17.000They arrest my lawyer for giving me advice on what they deemed later was criminal because the lawyer, that's the level of psychotic behavior we are getting from the left.
00:55:25.000So I stress this: Donald Trump is staring down the barrel of Democrats that don't care what's true and a voter base that doesn't know what's going on.
00:55:44.000I don't know, and I'm going to pretend to know what's going on behind the scenes.
00:55:46.000But oh boy, let's just get ready for 2028, or I should say for 2020, at the end of 2026 to 2028, Democrats are going to have Congress and they're going to fire off subpoenas at full auto and they're going to start locking up Trump supporters through bogus lying to Congress and contempt of Congress charges like they already did before.
00:56:15.000And, you know, look, I'm stay a little more optimistic, obviously, that in hopes that we can retain and keep the House.
00:56:24.000I think maybe in the second quarter of this year, moving into the third quarter, we'll have some economic numbers and people can actually feel it that things are moving in the right direction.
00:56:33.000Hopefully, it could help us, but it does not look good right now.
00:56:36.000But particularly with the redistricting going on and all this, it doesn't look good.
00:56:41.000But, you know, in all fairness, Riley, it's easy for you to be optimistic.
00:56:45.000West Virginia is mountainous and highly defensible.
00:56:52.000But the reason why, despite being an East Coast state, it's not very densely populated is because of the mountains.
00:57:00.000It's very difficult to, in the early days, to get materials through the mountains, through the hills.
00:57:06.000And so only the toughest, I don't mean this to kind of blow smoke up West Virginia's ass, but it's true.
00:57:10.000Only the most hardened individuals who could survive these conditions and carry supplies actually ended up settling in this area.
00:57:16.000So even to this day, it's not very densely populated because of how difficult it was.
00:57:20.000At the same time, it's also the safest place in terms of natural disasters and war, or I should say at least one of in the United States.
00:57:29.000There's a variety of questions about what kind of war you'd face.
00:57:31.000But in the event of like ground invasion, mountainous, difficult to navigate, highly defensible for the people who live there.
00:57:39.000In terms of flooding and natural disasters, I'll throw it to our storm weather friend Ben Davidson, who shows the when if the great flood happens, West Virginia is the only place in the United States like not swept up.
00:57:52.000So even when you get to the more like out there theories of like mass floods, West Virginia is okay.
00:58:20.000I don't know if it's just like people tweeting just a tweet, but I see these like proposals of all these bordering counties in Virginia and potentially Maryland of like joining in West Virginia.
00:58:29.000Well, but Virginia would have to agree to that.
00:58:52.000Isn't Winchester like a separate micro county so they could just join West Virginia and surround Winchester?
00:58:57.000Well, I mean, look, we'll take the whole thing because we would love to get another congressional district back because it gets us another electoral vote, which helps everybody in the presidential election.
00:59:06.000The state of West Virginia has sieged Winchester.
00:59:08.000I mean, yeah, we should go in and take it, right?
00:59:10.000You know, there's some good restaurants.
00:59:13.000I mean, I don't see that they put up all that much resistance.
00:59:38.000Now, I must stress, I actually am much more excited to talk about Zorhan Mamdani gutting the New York Rainy Day Fund and retirement funds because communism doesn't work, but we'll get there.
00:59:48.000In the meantime, communist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to be president.
00:59:52.000So she went to the Munich Security Conference, of which I'm baffled why she went.
01:00:12.000So she needs to start creating an image of herself discussing worldly affairs.
01:00:17.000Well, the good news for all of us is, oh boy, oh boy, listen to this.
01:00:21.000And should the U.S. actually commit U.S. troops to defend Taiwan if China were to, you know, I think that this is such a, you know, I think that this is a very long-standing policy of the United States.
01:00:49.000And I think what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never get to that point.
01:01:44.000Okay, I was making fun of her, but I'm going to say this in all seriousness.
01:01:47.000I don't think AOC knows where Taiwan is.
01:01:50.000I don't think she knows what the conflict is.
01:01:52.000I think she has a general surface level of there is a policy to protect Taiwan, but she doesn't know enough about it to opine even to like beyond a surface level.
01:02:42.000If her response was, that is an incredibly difficult question that I don't feel qualified right now to answer, given the debate is ongoing and I don't have access to national security information pertaining to what that would mean.
01:02:55.000So it would be ignorant of me to make a claim on the world stage at the Munich Security Conference that I would commit to something without having access to national security information.
01:03:51.000You can tell she was like trying to reach in the recesses of her mind to like this canned answer that they had given her, like standing pops like gears with like spider webs on it, like just turning.
01:04:34.000What do you think about the Johnson rod in your car?
01:04:37.000Well, you know, I know a lot of people have been talking about Johnson Rod, but it's not something that I'm focused on in the immediate because jobs matter so much more.
01:04:45.000And, you know, you get into these conversations about Johnson Rotten and the American people say, what the hell are you even talking about?
01:05:50.000The New York Times wrote about it, but it was a defense of AOC where she called the New York Times and said, here's what I want you to publish about my statement.
01:05:58.000There's no major outlet writing that AOC stuttered on the world stage and gave a non-answer.
01:06:04.000That's why the Europeans are writing about it.
01:06:05.000Like, hey, hey, guys, who did you just send over?
01:06:33.000And all the people that are going to be like, oh, look, she's too dumb to be president, blah, blah, blah.
01:06:37.000Even like, I agree that she doesn't have nearly the political chops when it comes to foreign policy or knowing about the economy or knowing about things that are actually important.
01:07:57.000Well, when Obama got elected to the Senate, he was immediately asked, will you run for president?
01:08:02.000I remember I was like a teenager and I was watching this and I was like, oh, they were like, now that you've won, will you run for president?
01:08:29.000You know, and like, so if she were to get into the Senate, because generally it's really, really hard for Congresspeople to win the presidency, but a senator has the gravitas or whatever after spending a little time in the Senate.
01:08:42.000That is the most likely route for the money.
01:08:44.000And if she gets to the Senate, the Senate is a very guarded place and she won't be saying goofy things.
01:09:46.000I'm seeing a lot of stuff, especially in the show.
01:09:48.000So YouTube just now, when I refreshed it, because we're checking because the page has been down, had a CAPTCHA block on google.com, which it looks like YouTube is under a cyber attack.
01:10:02.000And the point of doing that is to block out bot traffic.
01:10:05.000Basically, it looks like a DDoS attack.
01:10:08.000What I will say about AOC is Riley, remember when she fabricated that story about January 6th and she claimed that the cop came to her office and she thought she was going to die because of J6 was founder, despite the fact that what she was describing happened an hour before anyone breached the building, which makes you wonder how it is she knew the building was going to be breached.
01:10:26.000Did she have foreknowledge of January 6th?
01:11:17.000Well, because the G like Republicans, conservatives broadly have this problem where like the candidates that we think the Democrats should pick are never actually in line with what the base actually wants in the Democrat Party.
01:11:26.000Where like Republicans are always like fixated like on this boogeyman that Michelle Obama is going to like change your mind and like run for president or like Gavin Newsom's this obvious shoe-in for the Democrats.
01:11:35.000Like the Democrat base wants to go as radical as possible right now.
01:12:13.000But it's getting even, I mean, they're cranking it up to an 11.
01:12:15.000Let's talk about the direction this country is going in.
01:12:18.000We'll start with this video here from our friend Zorhan Mamdani, who has publicly stated he's looting New York City.
01:12:24.000Would rather do is ensure that they remain as they are so that the city can be on firm financial footing.
01:12:29.000However, in order to get to this point of closing the gap on both this fiscal year and the next fiscal year, we are forced to raid the Rainy Day Fund, the Retiree Health Benefits Trust Reserve, and to increase property taxes across these other years.
01:13:45.00089% of residential rentals in New York City are run by businesses, not individual millionaires and billionaires.
01:13:53.000They're actually companies that maintain and staff these buildings because having a place to live requires fixing plumbing, fixing the heaters, making sure the front door works, cleaning the hallways.
01:15:01.000You are going to get empty buildings, bankrupt businesses, loss of jobs, and the best part, slumlords.
01:15:08.000These people don't understand a lick of economics.
01:15:11.000I saw a great video where this old guy is arguing with a lefty in the street.
01:15:15.000And he's like, you think that I should pay 70% of my income after $2 million?
01:15:20.000And the guy goes, yes, and 75% for every dollar after that.
01:15:24.000And he goes, okay, once I reach $2 million in income, I'm going to furlough all of my employees and I'm going to go play golf and go on my yacht for the remainder of the year.
01:15:33.000And now nobody works because they don't understand how economics works.
01:15:38.000So congratulations to all the commies in New York for watching your retiree health savings get looted and your property taxes spike.
01:15:44.000Yeah, also like it's, it's, it's tough for people that don't live or haven't been to New York City or understand like how the outer boroughs work.
01:15:50.000But like the majority of properties in New York City are still single-family homes.
01:15:54.000Like Queens, Brooklyn, and then pretty much the entirety of Staten Island are single-family homes.
01:15:58.000So the only people that are really going to feel the pinch here is not these, again, these large corporations that own a lot of rental properties or even these like, again, these wealthy, these sort of wealthy property owners that presumably he thinks he's like really putting some weight on here.
01:16:13.000It's just like normal middle class people that still own homes like in Queens, Staten Island.
01:16:18.000They're the ones that are going to feel the pinch because like what, a 10% increase?
01:16:22.000If you, again, have millions of dollars in the bank, that doesn't really impact you as much.
01:16:26.000But if you're like literally just trying to survive on your mortgage payments in Queens, you're cooked.
01:16:31.000So they're going to have to sell their homes.
01:16:32.000Again, no one's going to want to buy these single-family homes.
01:16:35.000Again, like families, this is going to go to businesses.
01:16:38.000Businesses are going to buy up the majority of these single and then they're going to turn them into rental properties.
01:16:41.000So all this is ensuring is that you're eliminating home ownership in New York City because there's still a ton of single-family homes in New York City.
01:16:48.000He's a communist, so he thinks the property is theft anyways.
01:16:50.000So I mean, it's just, all it is is like, it's a consolidation move.
01:16:53.000It just ensures that there's more businesses owning property.
01:16:55.000That's exactly what happens with communists all the time.
01:17:25.000The city then goes, well, how about this?
01:17:28.000We will buy the property off you at a good rate.
01:17:31.000And we had when we had, when de Blasio was in during COVID, he said their strategy was to buy up these buildings for pennies and the dollars to make community housing.
01:17:41.000We've already seen this happen where landowners, building owners, businesses have begun to leave properties vacant because the price limits, the rent limits that are in place by law make it so that it's more expensive to rent it than to not rent it.
01:17:58.000So what they're doing is they're leaving these, there's one video where the guy basically says, it's going to cost us $20,000 to fix this apartment up after the previous tenant damaged it.
01:18:36.000And the end of the day, it comes down to one simple word that I think we all have understood that this agenda is about, and that's control.
01:18:44.000So once you're living in one of these government-run and provided homes, all the little psycho-idiosyncrasies that the left is about, how many times you can flush your toilet, how much water you can run, can you have a gas stove?
01:19:01.000All those little things to control every aspect of your life and how you live your life will be determined by the government because you are dependent on them for your very existence in the shelter that you live in, the home that you live in, the roof over your head.
01:20:11.000But historically, we do tend to see a few things from situations like this.
01:20:17.000You could possibly get a Caesar-esque Roman Empire.
01:20:21.000The Republic falls and then a strongman says, I'm not going to let that happen and takes over.
01:20:27.000An Abraham Lincoln-esque suspension of habeas corpus and constitutional rights to keep the union stabilized.
01:20:33.000You also could get a Bolshevik revolution.
01:20:35.000Far leftists go to the centers of power, take out the command structure, then they assume control, and everybody's just too scared to do anything about it.
01:20:43.000You could also get a Franco-esque type scenario where a military leader says, I'm not letting these commies win and then just decides to start fighting.
01:21:14.000And so part of the problem is a lot of these people, they don't actually have like the expectation because we're saying, how can Americans tolerate this?
01:21:23.000It's like, well, there's not very many Americans left in New York City.
01:21:27.000Certainly not very many Americans that have like a long lineage in the country.
01:21:31.000And so that's part of how you can consolidate power in places like New York City and places like Los Angeles is you just shake out Americans.
01:21:37.000That's the strategy that's going on here.
01:22:47.000If we're able to defeat our opponents in the House and then coerce our enemies, which is the Senate, then yes, we could do these things.
01:22:56.000But yeah, you could certainly pass a law to do it.
01:22:59.000But, you know, the Senate is kind of the go-along, get-along club over there, and they're living in six-year terms and, you know, whatever, no problem.
01:23:08.000You know, just kind of managing the decline of the country.
01:23:17.000You know, I will admit, I think based on what we've seen largely in the political landscape, I am, I don't know what the right word is for it, but I think liberalism has reached its conclusion for this country.
01:23:31.000And that is the fault of those who purported to be classical liberals but did not defend what they believed in.
01:23:41.000For those that are not familiar with what that term means, it doesn't refer to American politics at all.
01:23:44.000It's a reference to political ideology of, you know, largely what this country was founded on.
01:23:50.000But understand this country was also founded on blasphemy laws, strong social codes, and people being hung in the streets when they committed crimes against other people.
01:24:01.000I was not saying I'm for those things now.
01:24:03.000But the thing is, we believed in semi-decentralized government.
01:24:08.000We believed in guaranteed rights and protections to be written down.
01:24:11.000And to a certain degree, freedom of people to practice their religion as they saw fit.
01:24:16.000Over a long enough period of time, this worldview, which I largely agree with, not like the minutiae of how they were doing bad things, everyone understands.
01:24:35.000I mean general decay of our institutions.
01:24:38.000That is, the 17th Amendment, for those that are not familiar, states that effectively we're having a popular vote for a senator.
01:24:44.000It used to be that your state legislature, your state representatives, would decide who they would appoint to represent the state.
01:24:51.000That is the better way to do it because that requires individuals then pay attention to who their local senators and reps actually are and what's going on in their state.
01:25:02.000With the creation or the ratification of the 17th Amendment, now nobody even knows who's running their own local jurisdictions or districts or towns or whatever.
01:25:11.000And you get these members of Congress that are like, vote for me and I'll clean up our town.
01:25:15.000Why would a federal member of Congress be cleaning up your local town in your district?
01:25:20.000Your representative is going to go to Congress and represent your interest to the federal government on issues of national taxation, borders, and foreign policy.
01:25:27.000But these people now don't understand that we are a republic.
01:25:36.000And I don't know how it comes about, but I know that whether we do it or not, it's going to happen.
01:25:40.000Because if it doesn't happen by the brute force of the right, the left will smash everything and burn it down.
01:25:45.000And then if either the right gives up and you get a Bolshevik-style revolution, or the right fights back and gets their reset.
01:25:52.000So if you repealed the 17th Amendment right now, you go and look at the number of legislatures controlled by Republicans or split legislatures.
01:26:00.000So say it goes 1-1, we'd have close to 60 senators.
01:26:18.000And so it would put focus back on the state legislatures, which are largely ignored, except when we're going through this redistricting process right now in states like Virginia.
01:26:29.000So people should be paying attention to what your elected officials doing in your state legislature.
01:26:36.000They have a lot more impact on your day-to-day than a U.S. senator does.
01:28:24.000Because they, like, not to get super granular here, but they don't even endorse the monarchy.
01:28:27.000Like, Justin Trudeau is an avid supporter of the monarchy, but it's not because he's like, we have this like, you know, classical Anglo tradition in Canada.
01:28:35.000Like, that would be based if that's why he liked the monarchy, but he likes the monarchy purely because America doesn't have one.
01:28:40.000And Canada's entire self-conceptualization as a nation is rooted in like insecurity that they're basically just an America JV team.
01:28:54.000We need to purge the Supreme Court, except for Thomas and Alito, and then bring out a bunch of actual based pro-Americans so that they actually rule on things that matter.
01:29:05.000The Supreme Court is again, like Alito and Thomas are based.
01:29:10.000In fact, you know, I've long argued just Thomas's extended family.
01:29:14.000They all get appointed to the Supreme Court, everybody else out.
01:29:42.000And I don't mean political in the sense that they have political opinions.
01:29:44.000I mean they're concerned that the responses they give will create a political or cultural response instead of just doing what needs to be done.
01:29:51.000We need a Supreme Court who's going to be like, don't know, don't care.
01:29:58.000Yeah, I would like Clarence Thomas if he was like appointed like SCOTUS Caesar and then he could like choose who the successors would be personally completely subvert the entire system.
01:30:06.000Alito's something like 74 and he's talking about retiring before the end of the end of it.
01:30:11.000Well, he needs to do it now because it's not going to get confirmed if they take the Senate.
01:32:07.000It was a big story where she made some like inverted recursive arguments about why they have to do something because they can't do it or something like that.
01:32:14.000I don't remember exactly what you're talking about, but the most common phrase that she uses is, I don't understand.
01:32:19.000Yeah, and they keep having this problem where she just like debates the lawyers.
01:32:23.000Like, it's like this, you're not supposed to do that.
01:32:29.000She thinks that if she can convince the lawyer, she thinks that there's an audience that she has to convince.
01:32:34.000And then, and then this Clarence Thomas, like, I think the first thing he ever spoke into the record was he was making fun of the lawyer because he went to Yale.
01:32:50.000She, I mean, she is, I've said multiple times, she's an embarrassment to the court.
01:32:54.000The fact that she wouldn't, that she, I mean, everyone knows that she knows what a woman is, but she refused to say because of her ideology.
01:33:02.000That is just, that was the most disqualifying thing that I think I've seen any Supreme Court justice do when they were being interviewed.
01:33:16.000Amy Coney Barrett said, quote, we will not dwell on Justice Jackson's argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries' worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself.
01:33:59.000Her opinion is specifically whatever the left believes right now.
01:34:03.000You can guarantee what her opinion is going to be, what she's going to say, where she's going to come down in every single vote.
01:34:10.000You know, one of the frustrations that people on the right have with people like Amy Corny Barrett and Kavanaugh and stuff is sometimes you're not really sure.
01:34:18.000Like there's actually a possibility that they will see things differently and they'll come down and vote in a way that the conservatives don't like.
01:34:26.000But that's because they're actually judges.
01:34:28.000They're actually like they may come down on, they may come down on things in the way that the right doesn't like, but they come down in a way where they've actually thought about it and they make at least a decent argument.
01:35:45.000Yeah, John Doyle makes this point all the time, and it's such a great point.
01:35:47.000Is literally, we're going to be like facing the wall.
01:35:49.000They're going to have like rifles at our backs.
01:35:51.000And then the conservatives are going to turn to each other and they could be like, could you imagine if we were the ones holding the right action?
01:38:10.000You know, I want to give this one to my anime friends out there, all the weebs.
01:38:15.000So I'm sure you guys are familiar with Naruto because of the Naruto running people were doing where they had their arms out, like they were developmentally disabled.
01:38:24.000So after Naruto, the full series ended, they created a new spin-off, which is still effectively the same show, but it follows his kid, Boruto.
01:39:51.000And it wasn't intended to actually be any kind of big product for us.
01:39:54.000We actually thought that Roberto Jr. was going to be our flagship because it's got a rooster on the back and Roberto Jr. was our mascot.
01:40:02.000Every day, people kept saying they liked Appalachian Knights way better.
01:40:06.000And they bought more and more until you can see here the reason why it goes Appalachian Knights, Graphene Dream, Rise of Burto Jr., that's a sell order.
01:40:13.000Basically, whichever one sells the most is on the furthest left.
01:40:16.000So Ian's Graphene Dream actually is our number two bestseller.
01:40:20.000You guys are putting Ian through college and you know he needs it.
01:44:01.000But you know, I'm really excited for AI because now it means I can watch, you know, my goal is to have a movie with Jason Statham and Tom Cruise, and they just go around beating people up.
01:44:14.000Because you make a movie with Jason Satham, which just goes around beating people up.
01:45:18.000And my plot, my treatment is that, you know, Dom is working on his new car and he's, and then, you know, Ludacris is like, yo, I got this experimental engine that uses a plasma drive.
01:50:57.000It's wild because my prediction was we were a few years away from something that's happening.
01:51:02.000And there's already schematics being leaked, allegedly leaked from C-Dance 3, where they, reportedly, C-Dance 2 is now entering the public.
01:51:42.000And so, you know, I talked about this, and then I thought it was actually a great bit of, so I've talked about how Disney Plus is going to have like the Disney corner where you can tell it, you'll press the microphone button and say, I want to watch Spider-Man fight the Hulk, and it will render a movie for you.
01:52:00.000And then Zachary Levi, the actor, came on and said basically the same thing.
01:52:05.000And that's been his concern the whole time.
01:52:06.000It's one of the reasons he, you know, when he came out and endorsed RFK Jr. and then got behind Trump for RK Jr.'s sake, his attitude was, I believe he said this several times publicly, Hollywood's over.
01:52:20.000AI is about to destroy everything and people have no idea how crazy it's already getting.
01:52:37.000I think it was on HBO or something like that, but it's these tech giants that are trapped in this house all together and they usually celebrate.
01:52:46.000And one of them controls all the AI videos in the world.
01:52:51.000And it's causing people watching all these attacks happen and they think that they're real.
01:56:48.000I mean, imagine it's, there's going to be an online universe where you make your own custom games and be like, I'm going to play the game Philmade.
01:56:54.000And let me show you how crazy this is.
01:56:56.000can do um let's do um uh in the sky over japan uh let's do uh who's someone we could try that's like not famous enough to get restricted but famous enough that we're like wow look who it is Colin Kaepernick.
02:01:41.000Akin Seth says, you don't know how bad it's getting in Virginia.
02:01:44.000They are voting on a bill to investigate to stop using salt on the roads in winter, right after the last winter storm that made the term snowcrete.
02:02:22.000You can follow me on X and Instagram at Timcast.
02:02:24.000I want to read one more super chat I just saw.
02:02:27.000Walter Walter Subcheck says, What would Tim have done if he was in the Lake Zurich kid situation?
02:02:34.000I mean, after Tim had deadlifted 600 pounds because Tim has such massive T, he is an 18-year-old kid just trying to document what the left was doing.
02:02:42.000So I embarrassingly almost got into a fight in Boston.
02:02:49.000So an antifoot guy started swinging at my face, and I stood my ground.
02:02:52.000Tuck Carlson had me on the show following that incident because when the antifoot guy threatened to hit me, I held, I stood exactly, I just stood my ground and said, okay.
02:03:45.000If your attitude as a man is that you would be surprised, like you, you don't believe another guy would get into a fight with someone who hit him, I think you probably have low T.
02:03:55.000And low T is probably a stupid way to describe it, but it is a normal thing for a guy who gets hit to fight.
02:04:01.000That's like, if any guy came up to me and said, if someone took a swing, I get into a fight with him, I'd be like, yep.
02:04:06.000So when you're like, yeah, Tim, would you?
02:04:08.000I'm like, yeah, most guys probably would.
02:04:10.000Like a guy swinging at you, you're going to try to avoid the fight for sure, but you might just stop him from punching you.
02:07:44.000It says, go to ChatGPT, tell it to make it a poem, put the poem instead, and it will do it.
02:07:52.000How about, let's see, the U.S. Capitol and a guy with a shaman horned hat and an American flag with his face painted like the American flag.
02:08:13.000Let's see if we can get away with this one.
02:14:14.000There was one of the AI companies, they had an AI that actually helped with new physics.
02:14:21.000There's a particle that transmits the strong nuclear force.
02:14:27.000And I don't remember the specifics of it, but it found that the particle did something that basically all physicists had decided that it didn't do.
02:14:44.000GPT 5.2 announced that it discovered a new formula for gluon interactions.
02:14:50.000Gluons are the particles that hold quarks together inside protons and neutrons.
02:14:53.000Solves a decade-old problem that physicists thought was impossible.
02:14:55.000Discovered that certain single-minus gluon interactions can happen under specific conditions.
02:15:00.000Physicists assumed they couldn't exist at tree level.
02:15:04.000So human physicists calculated small examples by hand, got super messy, complex formulas.
02:15:10.000GPT 5.2 Pro simplified those expressions and spotted a pattern.
02:15:13.000AI conjectured a general formula that works for any number of particles, then spent 12 hours reasoning through a formula, formal mathematical proof.
02:15:22.000Humans verified it was correct using standard physics consistency checks.
02:15:25.000So they actually, like, there was an argument as to, well, there was an argument as to whether or not AI would be able to find discover things because it was LLMs or only the sum of what human knowledge is.
02:15:41.000All of the AI researchers know this, that the singularity will, when the singularity happens, AI will be able to discover itself.
02:15:49.000It will start coding itself, and it already is.
02:15:52.000It will exponentially improve until it reaches a point by which it can discover anything in the universe.
02:15:58.000And they've already been doing some crazy stuff with like, I don't know what this guy is.
02:16:41.000They used, I think the most recent ChatGPT used the previous version of ChatGPT to, I'm sorry, one version of ChatGPT helped to write the newest.
02:19:10.000You need to collect all that information.
02:19:12.000Well, more than likely, what will happen is human beings will, the way they train AI is they usually have like a human being do it, but it's going to have, it's going to have the robot will like, they'll have the, they'll just like upload video of doing that was a suggestion from the from the discord.
02:19:30.000The environment is mecca and the character is a large sentient piece of bacon.
02:19:35.000But yeah, I mean, look, man, you know, if in 10 years, I think that it's likely that I would be like, nope, let the robot do it.
02:19:43.000Because, I mean, if it's doing, if robots are doing this procedure that I have to have done for five years and it does it on 600,000 people because it's, you know, fairly, say something fairly common or whatever.
02:19:56.000I mean, I'm not going to want to go with the human being.
02:19:58.000I had, I got, I got LASIK in 2012 and it was, you know, it was a robot that did it, you know, because I don't want, I wouldn't want a doctor cutting on my eye.
