Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Trump Announces 25% Tariff On ALL CARS, Canada Begins MASS LAYOFFS Over Tariffs | Timcast IRL

00:02:23.000 Donald Trump has just announced an additional 25% tariff on all imported cars.

00:02:30.000 And the corporate press says he is ratcheting up the trade war.

00:02:34.000 This will be interesting.

00:02:35.000 He also announced it's going to be the opening of a bunch of auto plants in the country, namely in Indiana.

00:02:40.000 So it seems like things are working.

00:02:42.000 We're also seeing these viral posts where liberals are getting angry because prices are coming down.

00:02:46.000 Uh-oh.

00:02:47.000 Gas prices are down.

00:02:48.000 Egg prices are down.

00:02:49.000 Come on, guys.

00:02:51.000 Isn't this the way it's supposed to go?

00:02:52.000 Now, Canada, we got this report that they're laying off hundreds of workers in the steel and aluminum industries because of the tariffs.

00:03:00.000 And this is why they were whinging, because they think that they deserve to do business with us to the benefit of Canada.

00:03:07.000 Well, Trump is saying, I want the American people to do better.

00:03:12.000 That's what we're getting.

00:03:13.000 So let's talk about that.

00:03:14.000 Should be interesting.

00:03:15.000 But also, you know, that signal story won't go away.

00:03:18.000 There's more developments.

00:03:20.000 But I'm going to double down on, you know, my view of this, that I think the Trump admin likely knew what they were doing for a variety of reasons.

00:03:29.000 We've got a viral video showing a woman, a pro-Palestinian activist, having a couple guys grab her.

00:03:37.000 We don't know exactly what's going on, but guys in hoodies grab her, saying they're the police.

00:03:41.000 And the assumption is this is immigration picking up U.S. visa holders who are here in support of Palestinian causes.

00:03:49.000 That story and stories like it have disappeared from the news cycle, largely because the only thing anyone's talking about is that a signal message leaked.

00:03:58.000 Should be interesting.

00:03:59.000 We'll talk all about that before we do, my friends.

00:04:45.000 Well, it actually says, if you're like me, the answer is, actually, if you're like me, the answer is, the first time I read the script and then realized it.

00:05:54.000 So it was a small batch, but we've got more coming in.

00:05:56.000 I don't know how you do it, Ian.

00:06:14.000 Hello. So good to be here.

00:06:16.000 It's been three years or something like that.

00:06:18.000 Yeah, well, who are you?

00:06:19.000 What do you do?

00:06:20.000 Why am I here at said Admiral Stockdale?

00:06:24.000 You guys?

00:06:24.000 You're too young.

00:06:25.000 Never mind.

00:06:25.000 Too young, I guess.

00:06:28.000 Well, I'm the host and managing editor of the Sunday TV show Full Measure, which is going into its 11th year next fall.

00:06:35.000 And unlike the other news organizations we're seeing on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, depending on where you live, Unlike other news organizations, our viewership is going through the roof this year as we continue to bring sort of under-reported stories and off-narrative stories.

00:06:51.000 And I have a new book, Follow the Science, How Big Pharma Misleads, Obscures, and Prevails.

00:06:56.000 We're all right on.

00:06:57.000 It should be fun.

00:06:57.000 Thanks for hanging out.

00:06:58.000 You have an X account?

00:06:59.000 I was looking for it.

00:07:00.000 I do have an X account, Cheryl Atkinson, and a sub-stack that I'm starting to get pretty active on.

00:07:05.000 Awesome. Good to see you, man.

00:07:06.000 It has been a while.

00:07:07.000 I'm back as well.

00:07:08.000 Ian crossing in the house, and I'll tell you how I do it, Tim.

00:07:10.000 I'll tell you how I sell that coffee.

00:07:11.000 It's with love.

00:07:12.000 And I figured out, according to the Greeks, there were eight types of love.

00:07:15.000 Okay, here we go.

00:07:15.000 Yeah, there's erotic love, there's love of family, there's friendship, there's love of self.

00:07:19.000 I do it with all of them.

00:07:19.000 Someone suggested we make a t-shirt of that and all of our coffees.

00:07:22.000 It's actually a really good idea.

00:07:24.000 So instead, it'll just be the actual art, so you'll have the Ian floating in the middle.

00:07:28.000 Ooh, that's a chakra.

00:07:29.000 Let's steal coffee for every chakra.

00:07:31.000 Okay, Ian.

00:07:32.000 Okay, Tim.

00:07:33.000 Love you.

00:07:33.000 Hi, Phil.

00:07:34.000 How are you doing, baby?

00:07:34.000 I'm doing all right.

00:07:35.000 Hello, everybody.

00:07:36.000 My name is Phil Labonte.

00:07:36.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band, All That Remains.

00:07:38.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:07:40.000 Let's go.

00:07:41.000 Here's a story from ABC News.

00:07:43.000 Trump announces 25% tariffs on imported cars, ratcheting up global trade war.

00:07:48.000 They say that major stock indexes closed down on Wednesday.

00:07:52.000 I love that because it's not related to the news, but the corporate press always has to make sure that everything Trump does is wrong.

00:07:59.000 So they're going to include that sub matter.

00:08:01.000 Quote, I think our automobile industry will flourish like it hasn't before, Trump said.

00:08:05.000 The auto tariffs are set to target a sector that employs more than a million U.S.

00:08:08.000 workers and relies on a supply chain closely intertwined with Mexico and Canada.

00:08:12.000 Tariffs placed in the auto industry risk raising car prices for U.S.

00:08:15.000 consumers, experts previously told ABC News.

00:08:18.000 I... 0.92

00:08:19.000 I despise these people so much. 0.95

00:08:22.000 I don't want to start swearing right away, but I could not hate the corporate press more. 0.99

00:08:26.000 I could not hate them more.

00:08:28.000 This is not a news story.

00:08:30.000 This is an opinion piece meant to make you hate Donald Trump.

00:08:33.000 A news story would say, Trump announces 25% tariffs on imported cars.

00:08:37.000 Here's a quote.

00:08:39.000 End of story.

00:08:40.000 Instead, every opportunity they get, they... 1.00

00:08:43.000 Inject some stupid nonsense about how Trump is bad, Trump is bad, and it's bad for you. 1.00

00:08:48.000 The reality is, this is good for you. 1.00

00:08:50.000 It's good news.

00:08:51.000 It's going to make your cars cheaper.

00:08:53.000 It's going to give people jobs in this country, and it's going to cut off the freeloaders who've been mooching off us men.

00:08:58.000 The corporate press really gets me going.

00:09:00.000 But to be fair, I'm the one who chose that news story.

00:09:03.000 So they're saying that all imports, like with steel or rubber or anything that are coming from other countries are now going to be charged?

00:09:10.000 Is that what this, like what's going to get tariffed here?

00:09:12.000 The cars.

00:09:12.000 The cars themselves.

00:09:14.000 So the idea is, you know, let's take a foreign car manufacturer.

00:09:19.000 I'll use a random one.

00:09:20.000 We'll just make up a fake one.

00:09:22.000 We'll call it Crossland Cars.

00:09:23.000 And they manufacture in China.

00:09:25.000 China. And the company has a base of operations in the U.S. They make their cars in China, ship them here, import them, and then sell them to the American people.

00:09:33.000 So they're using slave labor in China to make the car.

00:09:36.000 Slave labor. 0.73

00:09:37.000 Like, they're getting paid nothing.

00:09:38.000 They have no health benefits.

00:09:39.000 There's smog and smoot everywhere.

00:09:41.000 And they're walking off their buildings in mass suicide.

00:09:43.000 Fox, can't you get the point?

00:09:45.000 You can't compete.

00:09:46.000 The American worker can't compete with that. 0.52

00:09:47.000 So these companies are like, we pay five bucks an hour.

00:09:50.000 If we were going to hire these people in America, we have to pay them 50. It's too expensive.

00:09:54.000 Trump says we put a tariff on those cars.

00:09:56.000 As soon as they, if that company tries to bring those cars in, they're going to have to pay 25% extra to import it.

00:10:02.000 So that's the American base of operation paying for it to come in.

00:10:05.000 But these are companies operating in foreign countries effectively, selling to the American worker, extracting our labor force and our manufacturing base.

00:10:13.000 What happens now is this 25% tariff will do two things.

00:10:17.000 American auto manufacturers now get an opportunity to compete.

00:10:22.000 They now have a 25% margin to work with because they're going to say anything you make your car for is going to be more expensive by virtue of the tariff.

00:10:30.000 So if we can't lower our prices below a certain amount, so put it this way.

00:10:35.000 Let's say a Chinese car costs $10,000.

00:10:37.000 An American car costs $15,000.

00:10:39.000 The American car manufacturer says it's impossible to get that cost lower.

00:10:42.000 By putting a tariff on those cars, maybe not $1,500, but let's say...

00:10:46.000 Let's say $1,250.

00:10:47.000 It now evens the playing field for the auto manufacturer in the U.S. because the Chinese manufacturer has to increase their costs to offset the cost of the tariffs coming in.

00:10:54.000 They claim the cost is to you, but when it allows American companies to compete, this actually can bring prices down because the foreign manufacturers are forced to lower their prices.

00:11:03.000 More importantly, it will create more economic activity, more people who have work.

00:11:08.000 There will be a greater volume of cars sold from the United States with more people who have jobs.

00:11:12.000 That's how costs come down.

00:11:13.000 They're lying to you. 0.95

00:11:14.000 They're evil. 0.92

00:11:15.000 They want to destroy this country's working class. 1.00

00:11:18.000 And President Trump, I interviewed him a couple of weeks ago, and he admitted what he would rather have of the two is not the tariffs if it would simply just produce more jobs here.

00:11:28.000 In other words, if both sides drop the tariffs because they've been tariffing us without us equally tariffing them back.

00:11:35.000 That would be fine if they would drop the tariffs and just have more cars built here.

00:11:39.000 He said he'd rather have the jobs here than the money, but he said the money's good too.

00:11:44.000 Cheryl, do you have the sense that if Trump's plan works out, do you think that the effect is going to be, you know, that there will be a return of jobs, or do you think that it's going to be something, do you think it's going to end up actually kind of like, you know, harpooning the economy?

00:12:02.000 Well, I'm not an economist, but we already have trillions of dollars of promised economic activity here in this country since Trump was elected as a result in part of the tariffs, maybe not entirely.

00:12:14.000 Some of it is simply because he got elected and they see a better environment.

00:12:18.000 But there is some direct activity linked to the tariff announcements already, which is what he predicted.

00:12:24.000 I don't see how that's a bad thing.

00:12:25.000 Now, one thing I questioned him about, is there going to be a period of pain in the short term because there will be belt tightening that has to be done or immediate impact before the job and impact is felt here, because it's going to take time to build factories and so on.

00:12:42.000 He thinks that the economic benefit will be felt almost immediately because even as they're building the plants, that starts almost right away.

00:12:50.000 That was actually going to be a follow-up.

00:12:52.000 Do you think that the economic activity that's going to be spurred, do you think that is going to take effect in time to protect the Republicans in the midterms?

00:13:01.000 Gosh, that's a great question.

00:13:03.000 No idea.

00:13:05.000 No idea.

00:13:06.000 They're looking at, like, a Chinese company wants to sell in the U.S., so...

00:13:10.000 They're going to have to either raise their prices, which means that American car companies are going to be relatively cheaper, which means they're going to get money, and then that's going to enhance American companies.

00:13:18.000 Then they'll hire more people, build more plants.

00:13:20.000 That's going to happen over time.

00:13:21.000 Initially, China's going to be like, well, if we stop shipping our cars over the U.S. because they're screwing us with tariffs, we lose $700 billion. 0.55

00:13:29.000 If we just now charge more and we have to eat that cost in loss or in expenditure, we'll make...

00:13:37.000 $500 billion.

00:13:38.000 So it's like...

00:13:39.000 Also consider this.

00:13:40.000 You're right, but also consider this.

00:13:41.000 Let's say a car costs $20,000 in the United States, and their margin is 10%, and China makes a car for $15,000, sells it here for $20,000, matching the market price of American-made cars, they get a massive margin where they're extracting profit by using cheap labor.

00:13:57.000 Putting that tariff on it will strip their profit margins down.

00:14:00.000 I guess there's a concern that if the Chinese manufacturers raise their prices to keep up with tariffs, then the American companies will also raise their prices to keep up with just because they can.

00:14:09.000 Other way around.

00:14:10.000 The foreign companies will not be able to compete with cheaper American products.

00:14:15.000 So the idea with 25% tariff is that the foreign product needs to cost more than the American product.

00:14:20.000 And then that basically they're going to have to drop their prices to compete with us.

00:14:26.000 So if it ends up costing them more to make it, they're not going to raise their prices.

00:14:31.000 The left keeps saying they're just going to raise the prices and pass to the consumer.

00:14:34.000 No, it isn't.

00:14:35.000 Take a look at our coffee company.

00:14:37.000 So if we have Kona coffee made in Hawaii, and it's $10 a bag, and then someone imports from somewhere else for $8 a bag and makes a $2 profit, they still have to compete with our cost.

00:14:47.000 So if their price goes up from the tariffs, they either stop...

00:14:50.000 And we sell all American.

00:14:52.000 Or they have to keep their prices down somehow to compete with the American costs that are already low.

00:14:56.000 And they won't stop.

00:14:56.000 It's a huge, huge sector of their economy, I imagine.

00:14:59.000 They won't stop.

00:15:00.000 They have to continue to compete.

00:15:03.000 Like, economics, it's not about your emotions.

00:15:05.000 You know, I gotta be honest.

00:15:06.000 I don't even care if the cars end up costing more money.

00:15:09.000 You know why?

00:15:10.000 Because this just means we're gonna get our auto manufacturing base back in Indiana and Michigan and Ohio.

00:15:16.000 And it means that, you know...

00:15:19.000 Remember the documentary from the 90s from Michael Moore about the shuttering of these auto plants?

00:15:23.000 What happened to those people?

00:15:25.000 Now they're sitting here screaming that Donald Trump's the bad guy when he's trying to bring back that middle class life Americans used to enjoy.

00:15:32.000 Now you've got Gen Z. They can't afford a place to live. 1.00

00:15:34.000 They can't find any jobs.

00:15:35.000 The jobs they can find pay dirt.

00:15:37.000 Imagine this Gen Z. Donald Trump does this.

00:15:40.000 Next thing you know, an ad pops up.

00:15:43.000 Auto manufacturing job paying $60,000 a year.

00:15:46.000 Entry level.

00:15:47.000 Or, you know, 40,000, 50,000 entry level.

00:15:50.000 Now you have a chance to get these jobs.

00:15:52.000 It's going to create competition in the American market.

00:15:55.000 It's going to create opportunity for Americans to have these jobs.

00:15:57.000 Trump's deportation, all of this combined, is going to raise the standard of living for the American people.

00:16:02.000 I feel like it's also a time in history when it's a good time to revitalize your national industry because of the materials revolution we're going through with, like, subatomic discoveries, graphene, obviously, hydrogen fuel.

00:16:17.000 Like, we could really, I mean, even a new car company and a new American car company that is, like, hydrogen, graphene-based, if they could get the cost low.

00:16:24.000 That's the opportunity that we have right now.

00:16:28.000 Here's a problem, though, that I think you guys talked about before we went live here.

00:16:32.000 People don't understand tariffs.

00:16:34.000 I'm not saying I understand better than everybody else, because I don't.

00:16:37.000 But I think their eyes glaze over, and they're being fed by most of the media a tale, a one-sided story, really, about what all this means without anybody explaining it to them in the way.

00:16:48.000 you're trying to do.

00:16:49.000 And they're not getting a full picture of it.

00:16:51.000 So they're going to associate anything bad that happens economically in the next month or so for sure with this threat of tariffs when that may or may not be to blame for it But all that matters is, I would probably say, September of 2026?

00:17:08.000 That's all that matters.

00:17:10.000 Trump could literally do anything.

00:17:12.000 Well, not literally, but he could do most things right now and get away with it.

00:17:15.000 Just so long as the economy is okay in 18 months, well, 12 months from now, 12, 16 months from now, just so long as the economy is okay, then the Republicans have a shot in the midterms, and if the Republicans...

00:17:31.000 actually do well in the midterms, then the president gets to continue his agenda with at least not a hostile Congress Don't you think they, Republicans, weirdly underperform, though, in recent history at times when they should excel when we're looking at what they ought to be able to do in Congress?

00:17:53.000 Absolutely. I mean, we won.

00:17:56.000 So one issue people keep bringing up is the census issue that overcounted blue states in 2020, and that's going to get corrected in 2030, and we're going to see a massive shift in terms of electoral college votes and congressional seats.

00:18:13.000 So it's going to get real interesting after 2030.

00:18:16.000 So that midterm, I don't know when the census actually kicks in for districts, but Ezra Klein basically lays it out.

00:18:26.000 Bill Maher lays it out.

00:18:27.000 Democrats, it's game over.

00:18:28.000 They're never going to win again.

00:18:29.000 Oh, I heard the Democratic Party's splitting.

00:18:31.000 Have you guys heard much about that?

00:18:32.000 Oh, they're fighting, that's for sure.

00:18:33.000 Oh, yeah.

00:18:34.000 It's like a tea party coming out of the Democratic Party.

00:18:37.000 Yeah, they're fighting each other.

00:18:38.000 My favorite was, we talked about this yesterday, that cat Abagazale.

00:18:41.000 Abagazale, is that her name?

00:18:42.000 She's got a keffiyeh on her wall in Illinois' 9th District, which has the highest density of Jews in Illinois. 0.82

00:18:49.000 So all these people are coming out being like...

00:18:52.000 She keeps talking about—she's a progressive.

00:18:53.000 She's going to primary the incumbent Democrat.

00:18:56.000 And she's like, I'm not going to use a consultant.

00:18:58.000 We don't need any of these grifter-class consultants. 1.00

00:19:01.000 And it's like, lady, you needed one to be like, you are trying to run for Congress in the densest Jewish population in Illinois, and you have a kafia behind you. 0.99

00:19:08.000 Her dad's Palestinian.

00:19:10.000 I don't think she can win.

00:19:11.000 But I certainly hope she runs.

00:19:13.000 I hope AOC props her up.

00:19:15.000 I hope all of the squad and the left progressives prop her up because it will make all the moderate Democrats recoil and run to Donald Trump.

00:19:22.000 I'm open to seeing the slithering vestige of whatever that Democratic Party had become kind of fade away because it was just big bureaucracy controlled.

00:19:31.000 And I don't even know if most of them even realize that they've been part of that.

00:19:35.000 But I'd like to see it fade away.

00:19:37.000 Whether or not what's coming next, I guess that's a big concern.

00:19:41.000 They let the opportunity slip away during this transition where so many people on the traditional left started to merge with people on the right when it came to COVID issues.

00:19:50.000 They still differ on key things like RFK Jr. may not agree with a lot of conservatives on environmental issues, but on...

00:19:58.000 Issues that they have deemed to be now more important and more impactful to their families, they have come together.

00:20:04.000 And Kennedy wanted to work with the Democrat Party, as you know.

00:20:07.000 A lot of these Democrats who've broken away wanted to work with the Democratic Party and were rejected.

00:20:13.000 The fate might have been totally different if those forces had joined on the left instead of on the right.

00:20:18.000 Do you think that that's going to be a phenomenon moving forward?

00:20:20.000 Because we talk about the kind of the civil war that's happening in the Democrat Party between the actual progressives and the far left.

00:20:28.000 And Tim was talking about some polling numbers that said the very far left and the 30% want to keep it.

00:20:36.000 What they're doing.

00:20:38.000 Some think that the Democrats didn't go far enough, but there was a significant portion, probably a third, that thought that they went too far and that was why they lost.

00:20:47.000 Those people seem not ready to come over to vote for Republicans yet, but with the historic, unpopular...

00:20:57.000 I think it's a problem for them, the doubling down.

00:21:03.000 I mean, that's a legitimate position for some people to take, that this is our true purpose and this is what we ought to do.

00:21:09.000 But that's starting to look more and more fringe, and they see that they have, you know, Republicans have peeled off important support because of that, and I think that's going to continue.

00:21:18.000 I was getting...

00:21:19.000 Calls on C-SPAN the other day.

00:21:21.000 They have, I don't know if you know, a Democrat line, Republican line, an independent line.

00:21:25.000 They take calls.

00:21:26.000 The Democrats sounded like Republicans when they were calling in and asking about media issues and the things I cover with the health and science stuff.

00:21:33.000 And everybody sounded like they were almost on the same page.

00:21:37.000 And it was more on the middle or middle-leaning to conservative side, even these Democrats who are calling in.

00:21:42.000 So I think...

00:21:43.000 I think that's a bad signal for the Democrats.

00:21:45.000 I mean, back in the 80s, there used to be conservative Democrats and there were Democrats that would actually be conservative, at least by their standards.

00:21:54.000 I don't think that that's out of the question anymore, is it?

00:21:58.000 Well, I just think they're feeling more and more alienated if they are.

00:22:02.000 I'm wondering if the Democrats that don't want to be associated with the far left are going to quit or are they going to become the blue dog Democrats like they used to be.

00:22:12.000 Manchin quit.

00:22:14.000 Joe Manchin.

00:22:15.000 He's not the only one.

00:22:17.000 Kyrsten Sinema is fairly moderate and she didn't quit?

00:22:21.000 No, she quit the Democratic Party.

00:22:23.000 Did she quit the Democratic Party?

00:22:24.000 Yes. A long time ago.

00:22:27.000 Yes. Was it like two years ago she quit?

00:22:30.000 There's a desire to want to stay and help it.

00:22:32.000 Jeff Van Drew quit?

00:22:33.000 If you're a Democrat...

00:22:35.000 And you're trying to be moderate in any way.

00:22:37.000 You cannot win.

00:22:39.000 You cannot win.

00:22:40.000 We have superdelegates.

00:22:41.000 It's so crazy.

00:22:42.000 That's for president.

00:22:43.000 Override and control their candidate.

00:22:45.000 That's for president.

00:22:46.000 We're talking about everyone else.

00:22:47.000 Let's jump to this story from the New York Post.

00:22:50.000 Hundreds of Canadian steelworkers hit with layoffs as Trump's tariffs squeeze the industry.

00:22:56.000 How's it going, Canada?

00:22:57.000 What are you going to do about it?

00:22:59.000 You do not get our business for free.

00:23:03.000 That's just it.

00:23:05.000 If the Canadians came out and they were just like, Trump, your tariffs are totally fine. 0.95

00:23:09.000 Thank you and have a nice day.

00:23:10.000 I would have been like, that was very honorable.

00:23:13.000 Instead, they got all hissy and pissy, threatened to cut off our electricity to the areas that use electricity in the northeast part of the country.

00:23:23.000 And they wanted to make it a big thing.

00:23:24.000 They were slighted as if they deserve our business.

00:23:30.000 Well, this is what you get, Canada.

00:23:31.000 This is what I've been talking about.

00:23:33.000 So we've got at least 200 Canadian members of the United Steelworkers, North America's largest private sector union, lost their jobs thus far, according to Marty Warren, the group's national director.

00:23:42.000 And Canadian companies have not been shy about placing the blame on Trump's stiff tariffs, a 25% levy imposed on all steel and aluminum imports.

00:23:50.000 I'm going to say this.

00:23:51.000 I feel bad for anybody who loses their job, but Canada, if you lost your job because you were dependent upon American business...

00:23:59.000 That was a mistake on your country's part to put everything on the line in terms of an international negotiation.

00:24:06.000 You had no guarantees.

00:24:07.000 And the American people have been exploited and are fed up.

00:24:11.000 And they said, we're not interested in this anymore.

00:24:13.000 We need to manufacture our own steel, our own aluminum.

00:24:17.000 So why would we give those jobs to Canada? 0.88

00:24:19.000 Now you guys have no jobs anymore.

00:24:20.000 That was you getting sold out.

00:24:22.000 This is Trump correcting and taking care of his own people.

00:24:24.000 Maybe your country should do the same for you.

00:24:26.000 And he's doing this in part not because just of steel and aluminum.

00:24:31.000 It's over the dairy tariffs.

00:24:32.000 Something like 260% in Canada that they're marking up if you want to sell milk, apparently.

00:24:38.000 And the way we can get them is getting them with something they want to sell here in the U.S. What I don't get is...

00:24:46.000 What's so controversial about that here in America?

00:24:48.000 It's not as though we're rolling in dough.

00:24:50.000 We have a deficit and a debt and so many needs going on here to say that we deserve to make sure that we're doing the best economically for our people.

00:24:59.000 We're doing these reciprocal tariffs or inviting businesses to do more manufacturing here.

00:25:04.000 What's controversial about that?

00:25:06.000 I think people don't understand the level of debt.

00:25:08.000 I think it's just kind of like the wool's been pulled over.

00:25:10.000 Most people don't know there's a U.S. debt clock where you can watch the $36 trillion just go up, up, up.

00:25:16.000 And we've, over 100 years, actually since 1949, CIA, after World War II, they basically created America as the tit.

00:25:26.000 For everyone else to get their milk from.

00:25:28.000 In the British Empire, like in this whole Five Eyes organization.

00:25:32.000 And we basically, it's just been accepted and people have now become accustomed to it.

00:25:36.000 What's that?

00:25:37.000 Do you know why?

00:25:38.000 Well, the Federal Reserve was very easy to siphon money.

00:25:40.000 You mentioned after World War II.

00:25:41.000 Do you know why the United States kind of became like...

00:25:44.000 Because it was the strongest military?

00:25:46.000 Because of nuclear non-proliferation.

00:25:48.000 Because the nuclear arms race, the United States, didn't want to see...

00:25:54.000 Every country in Europe all getting nuclear missiles because that would make a higher percentage chance of a nuclear war happening.

00:26:04.000 So the U.S. said, look, if you don't go after a nuclear arms program, we will protect you.

00:26:10.000 That's the whole point of NATO.

00:26:12.000 So it wasn't like, I mean, I know you talk about the global economic order and stuff like that, but it was...

00:26:19.000 The most of it was we don't want the world to blow itself up because of nuclear weapons.

00:26:24.000 That was, I think, the American military aspect of the situation.

00:26:27.000 But the economic aspect was they made America like the bank for all these other Commonwealth countries.

00:26:33.000 The economic aspect came after...

00:26:35.000 It was called the liberal economic order.

00:26:37.000 It came after NATO.

00:26:39.000 NATO came first.

00:26:40.000 They started building bases.

00:26:42.000 They said, look, don't...

00:26:45.000 We'll build bases.

00:26:46.000 We'll protect you.

00:26:47.000 We'll take care of you to make sure.

00:26:48.000 We'll defend you from the Russians. 1.00

00:26:50.000 And the response after that was, then you had economic interest.

00:26:54.000 You had companies deciding, okay, we can go into these places because they're secure, because the United States military protects them.

00:27:02.000 But also, Canada now gets a huge discount from this country as it's being siphoned off.

00:27:07.000 And one, if they violate NATO, they no longer get the American money.

00:27:11.000 So there's all these incentives to stay on board with this ethos of the liberal economic order.

00:27:16.000 And you're going to keep getting money.

00:27:18.000 And Trump comes in and he's like, I'm done with this.

00:27:19.000 Let me just give you a simple argument on the tariffs thing.

00:27:23.000 Donald Trump says to Canada, very simply, we think our business is worth more.

00:27:31.000 Instantly they laughed 200 workers.

00:27:32.000 I think that shows that there was an incongruence between the markets, Canada and the United States, and they were getting a freebie off us.

00:27:40.000 If Donald Trump can go and say, We're going to charge you to sell your product in our country, and that destroys your business.

00:27:49.000 I think that that just says it was an unfair arrangement from the get-go.

00:27:53.000 If the market actually made sense, you'd be like, okay.

00:27:57.000 But the reality was America doesn't need it.

00:28:00.000 And so I'll put it this way.

00:28:03.000 Donald Trump wants American steel back.

00:28:05.000 The Steelers in Pittsburgh.

00:28:07.000 Remember that?

00:28:08.000 There's no steel in Pittsburgh anymore.

00:28:09.000 Maybe a little bit.

00:28:10.000 Trump wants to bring those jobs back and give Americans good lives.

00:28:13.000 We sold it off at a discount rate to China.

00:28:16.000 I'm sorry, to China and Canada.

00:28:19.000 And Trump just said, you're going to have to pay more and instantly they're out of business.

00:28:23.000 We were getting ripped off.

00:28:24.000 Well, here's something just in simple terms.

00:28:27.000 We've had leaders that for decades have been telling us, the American public, as we're rowing a kayak toward a waterfall, that we're never going to hit the waterfall.

00:28:37.000 And we're just gliding that way and no one has the strength.

00:28:40.000 Or the ability to explain to the public or the desire that hard things need to be done so that bigger things can happen.

00:28:47.000 And the reason is they're all getting paid.

00:28:49.000 Republicans and Democrats alike are getting the donations from the industries to make sure they don't do these things.

00:28:54.000 And it never gives you votes, hardly, if you cut spending.

00:28:58.000 In fact, it costs you votes, because if you say, no, we really do need to do something about our deficit and deficit spending, then you end up with people saying, oh, look, they want a real throw grandma off a cliff, the Paul Ryan video.

00:29:09.000 And it takes a lot of morality on the part of a political figure.

00:29:15.000 And not just short-term thinking, of course, but they have to think short-term in a way because they have to get elected every two years, four years, six years, or whatnot.

00:29:23.000 I think the problem for this country is that if you were to be honest in politics, you'd lose in two seconds.

00:29:29.000 You'd go up and you'd say something like, guys, if we continue at this economic rate...

00:29:35.000 We are going to be bankrupt.

00:29:37.000 This country will collapse.

00:29:38.000 We need harsh economic reforms.

00:29:41.000 This is going to lower the GDP by X amount of percent for the first two years.

00:29:45.000 After that, we'll see stability.

00:29:46.000 After that, we may see a recovery.

00:29:48.000 People are going to say, nope, don't do it.

00:29:50.000 Because most people would rather say, give me the short-term gain.

00:29:54.000 I don't care about the long term.

00:29:56.000 That's what this is in Canada, too.

00:29:57.000 This entanglement of trade that we've found ourselves in is being disentangled.

00:30:03.000 The result is people are dependent on it.

00:30:04.000 Like, normal people that don't think about politics, they're just used to going in and making steel, and now they're losing their...

00:30:09.000 So there is, like, this short-term...

00:30:11.000 And this is what short-term pain literally is, is people losing jobs.

00:30:14.000 Do you have any steel manufacturers in the U.S.?

00:30:16.000 I mean, I generally care about humanity in general, and, like, if we have international entanglements, like, that is...

00:30:22.000 We're somewhat responsible for.

00:30:24.000 I care.

00:30:25.000 But I care, you know, long-term, we have to think at least 20 years ahead if we're talking about economy.

00:30:31.000 There are indeed.

00:30:32.000 There's U.S. Steel, there's Cleveland Cliffs Steel Dynamics, CMC, Gordot, North America, JW.

00:30:38.000 There's a lot of steel companies.

00:30:41.000 I read somewhere that a lot of the steel manufacturers left the United States, and I'm not sure where I heard.

00:30:47.000 You know, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these companies are actually just importing from Canada or China or Mexico.

00:30:52.000 And so they're American companies, but they outsource the manufacturing somewhere else and distribute through the United States, which is short-term gain, long-term losses.

00:31:00.000 But here's the best part.

00:31:01.000 It's almost like we don't even need them, but we've been doing them a favor by buying their stuff, you know, at an elevated rate at the expense of our own people under the idea that we need to help.

00:31:11.000 Hold on, siphoning American money to the British Empire, man.

00:31:13.000 I can't stand it.

00:31:14.000 The funniest thing about this is the left should be cheering Trump on.

00:31:18.000 100%. Because...

00:31:20.000 These, the outsourcing of jobs, and they used to.

00:31:22.000 Remember the battle in Seattle?

00:31:24.000 Remember that one?

00:31:25.000 Remember that one, Ian?

00:31:26.000 The battle in Seattle, 1999?

00:31:28.000 Quickly tell me.

00:31:29.000 The World Trade Organization protests.

00:31:31.000 People, leftists, were upset about the U.S. cutting deals, much like the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

00:31:37.000 What ends up happening is, the CEO of a big company and its shareholders say, we can increase our profit margins by 10% if we outsource the jobs to Mexico, where we don't gotta pay healthcare benefits.

00:31:49.000 The American workers get fired. 0.74

00:31:50.000 We make a bigger profit.

00:31:52.000 It makes the rich richer and the middle class poor.

00:31:55.000 The left was protesting this.

00:31:57.000 Today, they're protesting against Trump's—they're protesting for it.

00:32:02.000 If Trump had run as a Democrat and done these same initiatives, but run and won as a Democrat, would the Democrats be behind him now?

00:32:11.000 I actually—you know, there's a thing that we talk about.

00:32:14.000 Like, if Donald Trump had— If the Democrats had approached Donald Trump and basically stroked his ego...

00:32:21.000 He absolutely would have run as a Democrat.

00:32:22.000 He would have done anything they wanted.

00:32:24.000 And they would have won.

00:32:27.000 Democrat 2016 Trump on the same exact platform.

00:32:31.000 Because he shared a lot with Bernie Sanders.

00:32:33.000 If he ran this...

00:32:34.000 He was pro-gay marriage.

00:32:35.000 If he ran on that...

00:32:36.000 And Hillary Clinton wasn't. 1.00

00:32:37.000 If he ran on that, the Republicans would have had...

00:32:40.000 Who? Rubio?

00:32:42.000 Jeb Bush?

00:32:43.000 Yeah, Jeb Bush.

00:32:44.000 And then he would have won.

00:32:46.000 And the Republicans would have nobody right now.

00:32:48.000 It's a big if because they have superdelegates and they probably would have been like, Hillary Clinton's our candidate, everyone. 0.98

00:32:52.000 Right, right, right.

00:32:52.000 We get that.

00:32:53.000 If they approached Trump and said, but that was the problem.

00:32:56.000 Hillary Clinton, it was her turn.

00:32:58.000 Trump's only move was as a Republican.

00:32:59.000 Also, because of the sentiment of Occupy and Trump being a billionaire, with Bernie Sanders as a left populist, no populist is going to elect a billionaire.

00:33:08.000 On the right, however, the right populists were like, Trump's right.

00:33:11.000 He knows how the machine works.

00:33:12.000 It's benefited him.

00:33:13.000 He's going to fight for us.

00:33:15.000 The left just says millionaires and billionaires are bad.

00:33:17.000 It's interesting to think if he had run as a Democrat and they groomed him to be a Democrat, if he would have just become evil, like become part of that machine, but they didn't get to him early enough.

00:33:25.000 I think he'd be very much the same.

00:33:26.000 He's not changed, if you look at him over the decades, he's not changed a lot about anything.

00:33:30.000 Could you imagine Trump today, like if it was inverted, in 2016 he runs and he's going, you know, I just think sometimes a man is a lady.

00:33:41.000 Thinking a lot about it.

00:33:42.000 I just retweeted.

00:33:44.000 He was making remarks from...

00:33:46.000 I forget where he was.

00:33:47.000 But he was making remarks specifically saying, you'll never be a woman if you're a man.

00:33:51.000 It doesn't matter how many operations you get.

00:33:53.000 I just retweeted that just before the show started.

00:33:55.000 When was he saying that?

00:33:57.000 Today, like this afternoon.

00:33:59.000 It was 17 minutes ago I retweeted it.

00:34:03.000 It was from four hours ago.

00:34:05.000 Breaking 911 put it up.

00:34:06.000 I hope you guys are ready for this one.

00:34:08.000 Because the United States is going to go back into the Commonwealth.

00:34:12.000 That's right.

00:34:13.000 The United States will bend the knee to King Charles, apparently.

00:34:16.000 Donald Trump suffers MAGA backlash over Commonwealth proposal.

00:34:19.000 Hell no.

00:34:21.000 So Donald Trump suggested he could accept any potential invitation from King Charles III to join the Commonwealth.

00:34:28.000 Has led to one fan to warn you will lose 95% of your support base.

00:34:32.000 I mean, the left hates him already.

00:34:35.000 He would lose everyone else.

00:34:37.000 The whole country would be unified.

00:34:39.000 I don't even know what he meant, because he couldn't have actually meant, yes, the United States...

00:34:43.000 I don't even know what they're offering.

00:34:44.000 I don't get it.

00:34:44.000 It's an honorary position, is why he would consider it, because they're not officially becoming a parliamentary, you know, we're not going to get a king because of this.

00:34:52.000 If you go in the Commonwealth, you could very easily end up with a king.

00:34:55.000 Alex Jones, I've got a message for Donald Trump.

00:34:58.000 If you really try to make America join the British Commonwealth, 1776 will commence again.

00:35:03.000 It's shocking.

00:35:04.000 Like, King Charles...

00:35:06.000 Alex also, Alex Jones went on to say, like, maybe Trump's going to troll this guy.

00:35:10.000 Like, have the king come over to the United States, sit in the Oval Office and be like, yeah, we're not joining the Commonwealth.

00:35:14.000 Welcome to my house.

00:35:15.000 Like, could be something like that.

00:35:17.000 Trump's probably, like, has no idea what he's about to do.

00:35:20.000 And it's, like, toying with the idea.

00:35:21.000 And when he hears people complaining and being like, you better not even consider putting this country under the authority of the British Empire.

00:35:27.000 And he'll not.

00:35:29.000 He'll step back.

00:35:30.000 He will not.

00:35:31.000 He will not do it.

00:35:32.000 He will not.

00:35:32.000 Trump kind of just says stuff sometimes.

00:35:34.000 He likes to be provocative.

00:35:36.000 He likes to do...

00:35:37.000 But I wonder how much of what we're seeing with all these stories is just Trump manipulating the press.

00:35:43.000 Like, seriously, Trump could...

00:35:44.000 If there was a negative story about Trump, he could just fart and the story's gone.

00:35:48.000 I like about him that he'll say crazy stuff like this and think about it.

00:35:51.000 Just because it's a bad idea doesn't mean it's wrong to think about it and to voice it.

00:35:56.000 He thinks out loud a lot of times.

00:35:59.000 I like that about him, actually.

00:36:01.000 Like, Gaza, 51st state, what other crazy stuff? 0.85

00:36:03.000 Oh, making Canada state, making Greenland.

00:36:06.000 I mean, at least he's outside the box.

00:36:08.000 Maragaza. Maragaza.

00:36:09.000 Maragaza. Maragaza.

00:36:10.000 Beautiful. But it's up to us to keep him in check when he says really, really bad ideas.

00:36:15.000 We gotta be vocal about it.

00:36:16.000 You know, he's an ideas guy, right?

00:36:18.000 He is.

00:36:18.000 Sometimes you gotta throw him out there, and then people say, yeah, we're not gonna do that one.

00:36:22.000 But what I like about the conversation is, he's a...

00:36:25.000 Big ideas guy.

00:36:27.000 He's right about a lot of the stuff with the Panama Canal.

00:36:29.000 I didn't know what was going on.

00:36:30.000 We've had reporters go down there for my show and try to look into it.

00:36:34.000 He's right about some of it, but I would have thought the answers were sort of like, oh, let's negotiate so that they don't raise the fees so much, and let's work with them on not letting the Chinese get so much control. 0.99

00:36:44.000 And he's all about, let's take it back!

00:36:46.000 You know, like, the big idea, and it may...

00:36:49.000 That may not happen, but the conversation gets going.

00:36:52.000 Just take a look at this. 0.99

00:36:54.000 Hard to see, because Bloomberg's website sucks. 0.99

00:36:57.000 Look at this beautiful picture. 0.99

00:36:58.000 Look at this absolutely beautiful image.

00:37:01.000 Wouldn't you want to just hang out there in these beautiful homes?

00:37:05.000 Yeah, that's Greenland.

00:37:06.000 And Trump says, it must be ours.

00:37:10.000 Trump insists the U.S. must own Greenland, as Vance heads there.

00:37:13.000 So we don't need the British Commonwealth.

00:37:15.000 We need our own Commonwealth.

00:37:17.000 We need our own.

00:37:19.000 Greenland. It's another big idea.

00:37:20.000 Who would have thought?

00:37:21.000 It was funny because I guess Joe Rogan, I don't know.

00:37:24.000 Whenever Joe Rogan has a thought on something, the media reports it as a headline story.

00:37:27.000 I guess they're bored, but we love you, Joe.

00:37:29.000 And I guess he was saying he doesn't care for the Canada's 51st state thing.

00:37:33.000 Look, if Donald Trump is actually serious about Canada being the 51st state, I'm not for that.

00:37:38.000 I jokingly said we're going to seize it, and I got more death threats than I've ever gotten.

00:37:42.000 I don't actually want Canada.

00:37:44.000 It's cold.

00:37:45.000 I don't mind it for vacation to get poutine and go up.

00:37:48.000 But Greenland's a different story.

00:37:49.000 Canada had a revolution, and the people were like, we want statehood, we want First Amendment, we want American constitutionalism.

00:37:56.000 I would support them, but I don't want any kind of military seizure of British territory.

00:38:02.000 Would you join the volunteer force to fight in the war of Canada?

00:38:05.000 No, I would be an information guy.

00:38:06.000 I don't know, man.

00:38:08.000 I wouldn't have any interest in anything to do with Ukraine, but if there was a calling all support...

00:38:13.000 We're taking Canada.

00:38:15.000 I'd say, what can I do?

00:38:17.000 I'm kidding. 1.00

00:38:18.000 The Canadians are going to kill me. 1.00

00:38:19.000 Well, I mean, the Canadians, I don't think so. 1.00

00:38:22.000 I mean, it's a genuine conversation.

00:38:24.000 You know, the idea of United States isn't insulated to this landmass.

00:38:28.000 The idea of a bunch of states that are united could be global.

00:38:32.000 It could be solar.

00:38:32.000 It could be multi-planetary.

00:38:34.000 You know what the actual name of Mexico is?

00:38:36.000 United States of Mexico.

00:38:37.000 Indeed it is.

00:38:39.000 Just extrapolate that idea.

00:38:41.000 Localized governance is the way to go. 0.97

00:38:43.000 It sounds so crazy when you first hear these things, especially if you're not read in like I'm not sometimes.

00:38:49.000 But he was talking about Greenland his first term.

00:38:52.000 It didn't get a lot of coverage.

00:38:53.000 He was talking about doing this during his first term.

00:38:56.000 There's a method to it.

00:38:57.000 There's a reason, strategic reasons that look pretty important that make it look pretty smart.

00:39:02.000 Greenland is Denmark that actually...

00:39:04.000 Yeah, Kingdom of Denmark.

00:39:05.000 But we already have a lot of authority there given to us in a military sense.

00:39:11.000 That's because Denmark can't take care of it.

00:39:12.000 Right, we're responsible in part for their security.

00:39:14.000 We already have presence there.

00:39:16.000 They already rely on us in part for some things.

00:39:18.000 There is a relationship that exists.

00:39:20.000 We actually had to take stewardship of Greenland during World War II because Denmark couldn't protect Denmark from the Nazis. 0.63

00:39:27.000 And we couldn't have the Nazis building a beachhead. 0.53

00:39:33.000 So we're still responsible for their protection right now.

00:39:36.000 The United States is the entity that keeps the entire North American continent safe.

00:39:45.000 So we talk about Canada.

00:39:47.000 If you look at what Canada's military is actually comprised of, it is a joke.

00:39:54.000 Absolute joke.

00:39:56.000 They have almost nothing.

00:39:57.000 They rely entirely on the United States for their defense.

00:40:01.000 And the same thing goes for Greenland.

00:40:03.000 Greenland, the reason Greenland doesn't get taken by Russia is because of the United States.

00:40:10.000 And anyone that says anything different is lying to you.

00:40:13.000 You know, that is interesting because now that I think about it, it's like the defund the police, feminists and leftists. 1.00

00:40:21.000 They don't understand.

00:40:22.000 That their ideology can only exist in a state that keeps you secure.

00:40:27.000 If there was no...

00:40:28.000 Let's say the United States didn't exist and it was just a landmass.

00:40:31.000 Feminism wouldn't exist. 1.00

00:40:32.000 There'd be barbarian gangs on motorcycles going around taking what they want. 0.86

00:40:36.000 There would be small pocket communities that were run brutally.

00:40:39.000 If we ever saw an actual economic, like, governmental collapse, yo, it's going to be the most brutal guys who take over.

00:40:47.000 But because of the police and because of our system of laws, which protect the rights of everybody, feminism and the far left are able to exist in the system. 0.96

00:40:55.000 Canada is a good example of this.

00:40:56.000 If the United States didn't exist, Canada wouldn't exist.

00:40:59.000 Absolutely. Canada, I hope you hear this.

00:41:01.000 If the U.S. wasn't a psychotic war machine and there was literally nothing here but a spattering of states, Canada would be occupied and taken over.

00:41:11.000 And someone else would come and claim the landmass. 0.98

00:41:15.000 Canada's fringe far-left garbage only exists because the U.S. won't tolerate anybody going near Canada. 0.99

00:41:21.000 This is a meme that... 0.99

00:41:24.000 It's just a picture that I'm looking at that I'm going to retweet right now.

00:41:27.000 Canada's active military, they have 1.9 active military per 1,000 people.

00:41:32.000 The U.S. have four.

00:41:33.000 Canada has 375 aircraft.

00:41:36.000 The U.S. has 13,209.

00:41:38.000 They have 375?

00:41:40.000 375 aircraft.

00:41:42.000 Naval destroyers, Canada has zero.

00:41:44.000 The United States has 75. The United States has 64 submarines.

00:41:48.000 Canada has four.

00:41:49.000 The United States has 11 aircraft carriers.

00:41:52.000 Canada has zero.

00:41:53.000 Canada has 74 tanks.

00:41:55.000 The United States has 4,000.

00:41:58.000 There is no competition between the United States military and Canada.

00:42:03.000 The reason Canada is a free country is because the United States wants Canada.

00:42:08.000 It's almost free.

00:42:09.000 Look up King of Canada.

00:42:10.000 Search it right now.

00:42:11.000 King of Canada.

00:42:12.000 It's Charles.

00:42:13.000 He's their king.

00:42:15.000 If you compare the British military...

00:42:16.000 It says Ian Crossland.

00:42:17.000 Well, I will be one day.

00:42:19.000 If you compare the British military to the United States, it's not quite as laughable, but it's still laughable.

00:42:25.000 Britain has no military.

00:42:26.000 They're like, I mean, not no military.

00:42:27.000 Britain has a military.

00:42:27.000 But they have insignificant compared to the United States, along with what you're saying.

00:42:31.000 And Canada's part of this.

00:42:32.000 The United States military is larger than all of the rest of NATO.

00:42:36.000 All of the rest of the country.

00:42:38.000 All of NATO combined.

00:42:39.000 Do you know what I love this?

00:42:40.000 Do you know what the largest air force in the world is?

00:42:42.000 U.S. Air Force.

00:42:43.000 So who has the largest air force?

00:42:45.000 United States.

00:42:46.000 Do you know who has the second largest air force?

00:42:48.000 U.S. Navy.

00:42:48.000 That's right.

00:42:51.000 I kind of love that about this country.

00:42:52.000 I love it.

00:42:53.000 Absolutely. I think it was that they were the largest.

00:42:54.000 If the U.S. military was a corporation, it would be the largest polluter on the planet.

00:42:59.000 So much hot activity in the ocean.

00:43:02.000 Just dumping, dumping, dumping all day.

00:43:04.000 Burning. Keeps global trade possible.

00:43:05.000 Yeah. If the U.S. Navy wasn't patrolling the seas, pirates would take everything.

00:43:09.000 I mean, come on, let's be real.

00:43:11.000 If you got a cargo ship, like if it wasn't for the U.S. Navy, there would just be pirates literally everywhere, and these ships would be armed to the teeth.

00:43:19.000 And a lot of them are, actually.

00:43:21.000 But it's wild to me.

00:43:22.000 You ever see those videos where the cargo ship just sprays water on these guys?

00:43:25.000 Yeah. The speedboats are pulling up and they blast them with water.

00:43:28.000 They turn on the thing and water sprays off the sides, and I'm like, okay, I saw another video.

00:43:33.000 You saw the one where they unload on the pirates?

00:43:35.000 I've seen a few of those.

00:43:36.000 There's a viral video where the pirates are coming up and the dudes are just going like, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, just shooting at them.

00:43:41.000 Apparently, there's a Russian tourism...

00:43:43.000 I heard this yesterday.

00:43:44.000 Was it on this show that you guys might even talk about?

00:43:46.000 I don't remember.

00:43:47.000 You can pay like $15,000 to go get on a Russian boat and sail where there's pirates.

00:43:51.000 And if they come...

00:43:52.000 You're allowed to open up.

00:43:53.000 No, what?

00:43:53.000 Seriously. I don't know what the show was, but it was Mark Cuban.

00:43:59.000 Someone was telling Mark Cuban.

00:44:00.000 Your mom's house with Mark Cuban.

00:44:01.000 It was Christina Pryzitzky.

00:44:04.000 Pirate hunting cruises.

00:44:06.000 Hilarious. Russian luxury yachts offer pirate hunting cruises.

00:44:11.000 From 2009.

00:44:12.000 I don't know if it's real, but there you go.

00:44:14.000 Wealthy punters.

00:44:16.000 Pay $1,500 per day to patrol the most dangerous waters hoping to be attacked by raiders.

00:44:22.000 What the?

00:44:23.000 Would you do that?

00:44:24.000 I mean, that's a question they asked Mark Cuban.

00:44:26.000 I wouldn't spend that much.

00:44:26.000 Because they'll fire back, you know?

00:44:27.000 Yeah, they're going to be fired.

00:44:28.000 You're going to have superior weaponry.

00:44:30.000 That's terrible, man.

00:44:31.000 I mean, I don't understand why you have to pay to go stop evil people.

00:44:35.000 I know.

00:44:36.000 It's like the inverse of hiring mercenaries.

00:44:38.000 They figured it out.

00:44:39.000 They were like, guys, guys, we got a pirate problem.

00:44:41.000 We don't got to hire people to deal with it.

00:44:43.000 Let's get rich people to pay us so they can go deal with it. 0.99

00:44:46.000 That's kind of creepy.

00:44:47.000 I gotta be honest.

00:44:48.000 People who would pay money to go ride around in boats to shoot at people?

00:44:52.000 I suppose... 0.76

00:44:53.000 Give it to the Russians, man. 1.00

00:44:54.000 That's a hard people over there. 0.97

00:44:55.000 I suppose it's better than them murdering people or whatever.

00:44:58.000 It's an interesting philosophy that people that want to be vigilantes bad enough would pay money to a government to go hunt their enemies.

00:45:05.000 That's creepy.

00:45:06.000 I mean, is that even a government?

00:45:08.000 Let's jump to the story, my friends.

00:45:10.000 Ladies and gentlemen, we have breaking news.

00:45:12.000 We got them!

00:45:14.000 We got them!

00:45:15.000 The morbidly obese man on the four-wheeler who rammed the Cybertruck.

00:45:19.000 We got him.

00:45:20.000 It's finally over.

00:45:21.000 Man on homemade four-wheeler caught purposefully ramming parked Teslas.

00:45:25.000 Yeah, more than one.

00:45:26.000 Here's the video.

00:45:29.000 That's a woman. 1.00

00:45:30.000 No, that's a guy.

00:45:32.000 That's a guy.

00:45:33.000 That is a man.

00:45:34.000 He's definitely got a lot of estrogen flowing through his system.

00:45:37.000 Look at this.

00:45:37.000 It's just an opinion.

00:45:39.000 We get all that inertia.

00:45:40.000 I just don't get it, man.

00:45:42.000 He's giving himself a concussion while he's doing it, too.

00:45:45.000 So his name was DeMarcayune Cox.

00:45:49.000 And he's been accused of purposely ramming and damaging several Teslas across the city on March 25th.

00:45:55.000 Apparently he didn't realize they have security cameras.

00:45:57.000 None of these people do.

00:45:58.000 Dude, this is really weird. 1.00

00:46:01.000 Have people always been this stupid? 1.00

00:46:04.000 Honestly, I really mean this when I say it. 1.00

00:46:07.000 This is mental illness. 0.99

00:46:08.000 The stuff that you're seeing, these people are mentally ill. 0.99

00:46:12.000 Like just corroded brains from dietary and stress and stuff? 1.00

00:46:15.000 Have people always been this dumb? 0.99

00:46:16.000 No, I think we've got a serious mental health crisis related to drugs and bad food and all kinds of stuff the last decade or two. 0.99

00:46:25.000 You know, this is like 20 years ago I was hanging out in Chicago and I was having this philosophical debate with a friend and I was talking about...

00:46:34.000 We were talking about, like, NPCs.

00:46:36.000 This is kind of crazy that it became a meme later on.

00:46:38.000 But, like, solipsism and things like this.

00:46:40.000 And I said, I was like, dude, there are some people who are just not real. 1.00

00:46:45.000 I swear, because either they're just too dumb. 0.96

00:46:49.000 And then so I asked random people on the street as we were talking, are you sentient? 0.99

00:46:53.000 Not a single person said yes.

00:46:55.000 Did they say no?

00:46:56.000 They said no.

00:46:57.000 They all said no.

00:46:58.000 All of them just outright, no.

00:47:00.000 And I was like...

00:47:01.000 Are you joking?

00:47:02.000 Like, come on.

00:47:03.000 I was expecting for them to be like, yeah.

00:47:05.000 And we were at a college, so it's not like people are going to say that people don't know what you mean.

00:47:08.000 I was like, we were outside of DePaul University.

00:47:11.000 I just genuinely think these people, there's no lights on upstairs.

00:47:16.000 I guess they call it intelligence for a reason, because it's actually something.

00:47:19.000 Like, it isn't everywhere.

00:47:20.000 Like, it's a unique phenomenon when someone actually has it.

00:47:23.000 Do you think that if we asked these people, do you have an inner monologue, they'd all say no?

00:47:27.000 Or would they say, what's that?

00:47:28.000 They would say, what's that?

00:47:30.000 Yeah. Like, you don't know what you don't know?

00:47:33.000 It's like, well, if you don't have one, I'm not sure that telling you would actually help you understand it.

00:47:36.000 Some people think in, like, images.

00:47:38.000 Some people think in sounds.

00:47:39.000 Some people think in words.

00:47:41.000 Some people just don't really think, I guess.

00:47:43.000 I can't imagine thinking...

00:47:44.000 Some do what the voices tell them to do.

00:47:47.000 Right. I can visualize things, but I, like, I mean, I'm constantly, like, kind of walking around muttering to myself or, like, thinking out loud, talking to myself.

00:47:57.000 So I can't...

00:47:58.000 And so anytime I think ever, it's in words.

00:48:00.000 I can't imagine thinking...

00:48:02.000 Only in concepts or not having the ability to think in words.

00:48:05.000 I think in pictures, I think.

00:48:07.000 Do you?

00:48:07.000 I think so.

00:48:08.000 Like you picture something happening?

00:48:10.000 When someone's explaining something to me, I'm putting together a little movie in my head.

00:48:14.000 And if there's a gap, I stop them and have to make them fill that in so I can continue the movie and understand it.

00:48:20.000 That's kind of how it is with me.

00:48:22.000 And then there's like color, which is like warm.

00:48:26.000 Like there's a temperature of color.

00:48:27.000 Around the imagery happening, like the jacket will be like a brighter red that's warmer, indicating like a feeling, like an emotion.

00:48:35.000 That's kind of how I visualize.

00:48:36.000 Do you feel like that's an asset?

00:48:38.000 My sense is that would be an asset when you're doing interviews.

00:48:40.000 I just thought that's how everybody sees it because you don't really analyze it yourself until I have heard other people.

00:48:46.000 And clearly my husband doesn't think that way.

00:48:48.000 So when you talk to other people and you realize they're not following the same train of thought as you, you realize there's...

00:48:54.000 Does it help you when you're interviewing people?

00:48:57.000 Probably, because I make people explain things very clearly, and I think that helps.

00:49:01.000 I think that there's also something called...

00:49:03.000 What is it?

00:49:06.000 What's the word for when people can't visualize things?

00:49:09.000 Oh, I don't know.

00:49:13.000 It has an A. Aphantasia.

00:49:17.000 Yeah, so I actually think that there's different modes of thinking.

00:49:22.000 And there's probably a bunch of different ones.

00:49:24.000 Some people might think in sounds.

00:49:26.000 They actually...

00:49:27.000 They almost hear the sound.

00:49:28.000 You don't literally hear the sound, but you can...

00:49:30.000 I don't know.

00:49:31.000 What's the sound version of...

00:49:33.000 Visualize? Audioize?

00:49:34.000 I don't know.

00:49:35.000 Well, I mean, yeah.

00:49:36.000 I mean, you can...

00:49:38.000 Some people in their minds hear it.

00:49:40.000 Some people can think almost in text.

00:49:44.000 So there's different ways of thinking.

00:49:45.000 There's audio, video, conceptual.

00:49:49.000 And then I think what you end up with is...

00:49:51.000 A lot of people who have the most rudimentary, they can't visualize anything and there's no inner monologue, there's probably not a lot going on there. 1.00

00:49:59.000 And that inner monologue's important because that's what'll keep you from doing that stupid shit. 0.98

00:50:03.000 Like, you need to be able to see yourself in the future potentially doing something and questioning it and be like, hold on, there's consequences. 1.00

00:50:09.000 Think about all the possible outcomes of that action.

00:50:12.000 Edit your actions.

00:50:14.000 That's it, but there's another component in that people who have the ability to not just...

00:50:20.000 To visualize an image of things, but to imagine what it could be.

00:50:26.000 So there's remembering something, then there's visualizing anything which allows you to make predictions of the future.

00:50:33.000 Consequence. Right.

00:50:34.000 So you are right about this guy can't think ahead, but it's not just that.

00:50:39.000 It's that he doesn't, because he can't, he has no reason for what he's doing.

00:50:43.000 That's why people like us don't go around ramming Teslas.

00:50:46.000 Oh, that's interesting.

00:50:47.000 The age of reason.

00:50:48.000 Yeah, that's a big deal.

00:50:49.000 Reason wasn't always part of our norm.

00:50:51.000 Like, we kind of are in the age of reason for the most part right now, and there's a big diffusion.

00:50:54.000 The reason I do...

00:50:56.000 So, there's a couple different...

00:50:57.000 There's many different motivations for action.

00:50:59.000 This is pure impulse.

00:51:01.000 Someone told them to be angry.

00:51:03.000 They got angry.

00:51:03.000 They took an action.

00:51:04.000 There's no rhyme or reason.

00:51:05.000 It's just impulse.

00:51:07.000 It's the lowest order of thinking.

00:51:09.000 That lizard brain, the amygdala.

00:51:10.000 That's right.

00:51:11.000 Then there's reason.

00:51:13.000 There's reasoning.

00:51:14.000 Meaning, I think about the action, I visualize what will happen if that action is taken out, and then I decide how to address that circumstance.

00:51:22.000 Sane, rational people do things like start companies, and build houses, and design trains.

00:51:29.000 Everybody else rams Teslas.

00:51:31.000 And they also question their purpose.

00:51:33.000 With reason, you're able to think, why do I want...

00:51:36.000 Why am I drawing...

00:51:37.000 Except Sam Seder.

00:51:37.000 He can't.

00:51:38.000 He doesn't question his purpose.

00:51:39.000 He can't even Google the word.

00:51:41.000 He doesn't believe in free will.

00:51:43.000 I just had to drag the guy.

00:51:45.000 Free will?

00:51:45.000 That's a whole other conversation.

00:51:47.000 Free will versus fate?

00:51:48.000 No, no.

00:51:48.000 He doesn't believe that people have free will.

00:51:50.000 He thinks that people don't actually have free will.

00:51:52.000 That we're all starting an automated system.

00:51:54.000 He thinks that everyone...

00:51:57.000 It's kind of predestined depending on your inclination and whether or not you've had enough food today and stuff.

00:52:06.000 I don't care what he thinks because he's not smart enough to Google search basic philosophical concepts.

00:52:12.000 He lacks not just the capability to understand but the desire to try.

00:52:19.000 Interesting. But I don't want to talk about that guy.

00:52:21.000 I was just dragging him.

00:52:22.000 Okay, let's talk about the guy who got arrested for ramming a Tesla.

00:52:24.000 And all the rest of them.

00:52:25.000 So what happened?

00:52:26.000 Did he get charged with...

00:52:27.000 Yeah, I think he's getting felonies.

00:52:28.000 I mean, that's right.

00:52:29.000 What are they giving him?

00:52:29.000 Multiple felonies?

00:52:30.000 No, I gotta be honest.

00:52:32.000 This video is ridiculously funny. 0.99

00:52:36.000 I mean, it's dumb. 0.98

00:52:37.000 Is it playing now? 0.99

00:52:38.000 It is playing.

00:52:38.000 Okay. Oh my god.

00:52:43.000 Well... That's the momentum.

00:52:44.000 Yo, we're in trouble as a species.

00:52:46.000 And the homemade, the homemade four-wheeler, that's pretty cool.

00:52:48.000 Is homemade?

00:52:49.000 Mm-hmm.

00:52:50.000 Is that what they said?

00:52:51.000 Yeah. Wow.

00:52:52.000 We always have been in trouble as a species.

00:52:55.000 Oh, yeah, weird homemade four-wheeler.

00:52:57.000 A lawnmower and a bicycle or something there.

00:52:59.000 Wow. Look at that.

00:53:01.000 Gosh, how do you even describe it?

00:53:03.000 A single felony for criminal mischief and failure to identify. 1.00

00:53:06.000 These people are so dumb. 1.00

00:53:08.000 Bro, Teslas have cameras. 1.00

00:53:10.000 I just don't get it, man.

00:53:13.000 Who doesn't know that now?

00:53:15.000 People are still keying the cars on camera every day.

00:53:19.000 I don't know.

00:53:20.000 I think Christians get mad when I say this, but I'm like, is it just that not every person is ensouled?

00:53:27.000 Like when you have a soul, you're there and you're present in the moment.

00:53:30.000 And if you're not, you're just like milling about scratching cars.

00:53:33.000 There's an interface between the brain and the soul, I think.

00:53:36.000 Like the neural activity in the brain is electromagnetic.

00:53:39.000 And the soul is probably like your magnetic field or has some connection to that.

00:53:43.000 But then there's that interface between the area around you and the energy field and then the actual matter.

00:53:48.000 And then there can be collusion.

00:53:50.000 There can be like diffraction.

00:53:52.000 There can be all sorts of interference.

00:53:54.000 And that maybe is just genetic from birth.

00:53:57.000 Like it just wasn't built to be able to connect to that external source.

00:54:01.000 Or it's diet.

00:54:03.000 It's the way you were beat when you were a kid, and you don't want to ever feel that again.

00:54:07.000 And so your brain just like, your neurons just shrivel up and they aren't awakened.

00:54:13.000 I don't know, man.

00:54:15.000 It's almost like there's multiple species of human, hominid. 0.85

00:54:19.000 Well, there have been.

00:54:20.000 There sure have been.

00:54:22.000 And why not now?

00:54:23.000 Only in retrospect, maybe, we'll measure it and be like, actually, yeah, there were.

00:54:27.000 People were, some species just got it and some didn't.

00:54:30.000 Well, yeah, I mean, that's what did happen.

00:54:33.000 I wonder if they even thought they were different at the time.

00:54:39.000 There's evidence that Neanderthals and Homo sapiens actually did produce some offspring because people from Europe have Neanderthal DNA.

00:54:49.000 Yeah, and Denisovans were like these big tall people from North Asia.

00:54:53.000 There were the little people from Australia. 0.99

00:54:57.000 Were those Homo sapiens?

00:55:00.000 It was called Homo florensis, was the little one, and then Denisovan was a hominid also, big tall, big guys.

00:55:06.000 Doesn't 23andMe or one of those, they tell you if you have any Neanderthal in you?

00:55:10.000 Yep. Oh, wow.

00:55:11.000 Well, they're bankrupt now.

00:55:12.000 Yeah. Are they Chinese-owned or something?

00:55:15.000 I don't know, but all those DNA samples are up for sale.

00:55:18.000 Yep. Dude, what?

00:55:19.000 Dang it.

00:55:19.000 They plug those DNA samples and all that medical data into AI, and they are going to have a lot of power.

00:55:28.000 Mm-hmm.

00:55:29.000 Bro, if they were to take every human's medical data, DNA, and current blood levels and put it into AI, they'd be able to cure any disease overnight.

00:55:41.000 They don't want that.

00:55:43.000 Well, the control they do.

00:55:46.000 They can give to themselves.

00:55:48.000 Yeah. So the thing right now with all this AI stuff is we're sitting here making pictures of ourselves fighting dragons or whatever.

00:55:53.000 Like I made the Kung Fu.

00:55:54.000 You should highlight that tonight too.

00:55:56.000 The Kung Fu thing I tweeted about it.

00:55:57.000 Yeah, it's pretty funny.

00:55:58.000 I'll pull it up now so I can explain to people basically what happened.

00:56:03.000 Let me see if I can find it.

00:56:05.000 Oh, there's the bike lock thing.

00:56:06.000 So I tweeted this.

00:56:09.000 I told ChatGPT to make an image of me debating a liberal.

00:56:12.000 I didn't really.

00:56:13.000 I said, make him doing kung fu and fighting a demon. 0.74

00:56:16.000 And you just put a picture of you, your face, or something?

00:56:18.000 Yeah, so when I do the shows, the screenshots we have, we have the OBS program, and I look at the camera, and then I just hit the command for screenshot.

00:56:28.000 So I look at the camera, I hit it, grab it, paste it into ChatGPT, and it was just my head.

00:56:33.000 There was nothing else, just that.

00:56:35.000 And it made that.

00:56:36.000 It made that picture.

00:56:37.000 And that's crazy.

00:56:39.000 So go on to, you're talking about the medical now, if they have this.

00:56:42.000 So, once they get access to everybody's medical information, the AI will see things you cannot.

00:56:48.000 It's going to be able to correlate weird things where it's like, everybody with lupus has low magnesium.

00:56:55.000 That's pretty overt.

00:56:56.000 We would notice that.

00:56:57.000 We'd be like, hey, we've gone through all of these different charts of people with lupus.

00:57:02.000 We keep finding low magnesium.

00:57:03.000 That's a really obvious thing to find.

00:57:04.000 But what the AI would find is...

00:57:06.000 Hey, every time someone has lupus, they're minus 1% magnesium, plus 2% iron, minus 3% vitamin K, plus 4% vitamin D. And it's like that specific combination results in this form of lupus.

00:57:20.000 And then it can create a pill to balance out all those problems.

00:57:24.000 It can also do behavioral stuff.

00:57:26.000 Like, people that are depressed tend to face north three hours a day.

00:57:30.000 And we found that if you face south...

00:57:34.000 Facebook has known for a decade when you're going to poop.

00:57:41.000 Not a joke.

00:57:42.000 Not being funny.

00:57:44.000 Facebook already had the data because they've got a billion users and the computers easily mapped out that every human takes specific actions which show a likelihood of about to go to the bathroom.

00:57:57.000 So it's like within a certain time of eating, within a certain amount of movement, they got your GPS data.

00:58:02.000 There was a story on it like eight years ago that Facebook was actually, they actually knew when a person would go to the bathroom.

00:58:08.000 That's crazy.

00:58:09.000 What concerns me is if it starts lying.

00:58:11.000 I mean, you know, without being hyperbolic.

00:58:13.000 Yeah, really.

00:58:14.000 Because if they tell you, hey, we have all your medical data, it's such a tried and, you know, trusted service, and then they just give you something that's a little...

00:58:21.000 So here's another image.

00:58:23.000 I took my screenshot and said to make it anime.

00:58:26.000 You want to pull that up, Serge?

00:58:28.000 This is a great one.

00:58:30.000 This is the latest ChatGPT update.

00:58:32.000 I mean, it's kind of nuts.

00:58:33.000 It's getting the hands right.

00:58:34.000 That's a crazy image.

00:58:36.000 That's the best AI iteration of you I've seen so far.

00:58:40.000 It is ridiculous how good things have gotten.

00:58:44.000 Insane. So I took pictures of my buddies, and I uploaded to ChatGPT, and I said, make them into anime.

00:58:50.000 And even the background and everything was perfect.

00:58:53.000 It's nuts.

00:58:54.000 It's really crazy to see.

00:58:56.000 I was thinking we should do, like, a promo for IRL.

00:58:59.000 There's a bunch of us in that genre.

00:59:02.000 Yeah, anime.

00:59:03.000 I don't know.

00:59:03.000 It's like, do you use the tech?

00:59:04.000 You have to use the tech.

00:59:06.000 It's like nuclear weapons.

00:59:07.000 Like, if the Americans didn't... 0.88

00:59:09.000 It's too dangerous.

00:59:09.000 It's too evil.

00:59:10.000 We can't.

00:59:10.000 It's too powerful.

00:59:12.000 We can't use it.

00:59:12.000 No, you gotta use it, and you gotta be the best at it.

00:59:14.000 While we're here, let's get freaky with it.

00:59:17.000 Actually, I don't know if I want to go to this one other story first.

00:59:22.000 No, maybe we shouldn't.

00:59:23.000 We'll go to that one next.

00:59:24.000 We'll start with this one.

00:59:25.000 You guys saw that one?

00:59:27.000 Let me see if I can find a better story.

00:59:30.000 Alright. This headline's not good.

00:59:34.000 I'll pull it up anyway. 0.87

00:59:36.000 Holy crap, guys.

00:59:38.000 Alright, here we go. 0.98

00:59:41.000 From Hoboken, New Jersey, patch.com, police chief defecated an office, put Viagra in office coffee, New Jersey cops claim.

00:59:49.000 Several police officers filed tort claims against a New Jersey police chief saying he defecated on the office floor, according to legal paperwork.

00:59:57.000 What's wrong with you?

00:59:58.000 Bringing you the stories that matter most.

01:00:00.000 Is he the guy that spiked Viagra?

01:00:02.000 The chief?

01:00:03.000 Or did someone else spike him and then he...

01:00:05.000 Yo, this is in North Bergen.

01:00:06.000 He pooped.

01:00:06.000 This is like the New York Metro.

01:00:09.000 Stuck a hypodermic needle into an officer's penis. 1.00

01:00:12.000 This is great. 1.00

01:00:15.000 Why wasn't that in the headline?

01:00:17.000 Everything about this is bad.

01:00:21.000 So this is like Hoboken, isn't it?

01:00:24.000 No, no, no, this is not Hoboken, is it?

01:00:27.000 What area is that?

01:00:30.000 What is it?

01:00:31.000 That's not Union City, is it?

01:00:32.000 Gutenberg? Bergenwood?

01:00:34.000 It's right next to Manhattan.

01:00:36.000 It's literally across the river.

01:00:38.000 This is basically New York City.

01:00:39.000 That's a really influential position to be the police chief of a borough of New York City.

01:00:43.000 How is this guy in this position?

01:00:45.000 Did he just have a psychotic break?

01:00:47.000 It's right by West New York.

01:00:49.000 Where's Hoboken's further south?

01:00:52.000 Yeah. Jersey City.

01:00:54.000 Man, I used to live right here.

01:00:55.000 That's crazy.

01:00:56.000 I lived in Union City.

01:00:59.000 There's a quote.

01:00:59.000 Our clients now genuinely fear for their on-job safety.

01:01:03.000 Yeah. Their clients, I don't know.

01:01:06.000 I guess after you've been jabbed in the wing-wing, you would be.

01:01:09.000 Another cop?

01:01:11.000 Spiked coffee with Viagra?

01:01:13.000 Attorney Patrick Toscano of Fairfield has requested in a letter to Attorney General Matt Platkin dated March 26th that the state take over the police department in the Hudson County town, saying the officers now fear for their safety.

01:01:24.000 I would.

01:01:24.000 Yo, there's photos.

01:01:26.000 Oh, no.

01:01:27.000 Oh, snap. 0.99

01:01:28.000 What is wrong with him?

01:01:31.000 I don't know if I'm mad or I like the guy.

01:01:34.000 Did this person have like a psychotic break or something?

01:01:37.000 I gotta know. 0.87

01:01:38.000 Mental illness is real.

01:01:39.000 He must have spiked the Viagra so that he could get the specimen in order to inject the thing.

01:01:44.000 In all seriousness, the point of this story, I've been telling people, when all these Republicans come out saying back the blue, this is who you're backing.

01:01:52.000 Because Democrats appoint these people.

01:01:54.000 These are corrupt cities. 0.98

01:01:56.000 The guy who crashed into Tesla in that car, no different than these psychotic cops that are running these departments doing insane things.

01:02:03.000 I'm not saying all cops are bad.

01:02:04.000 I don't think so.

01:02:05.000 I'm saying... 0.96

01:02:06.000 The people running these departments are appointed by Democrats who get elected by psychopaths. 0.94

01:02:09.000 Well, he's an appointee.

01:02:10.000 The chief is an appointee.

01:02:12.000 I'm assuming he's an appointee.

01:02:13.000 But in most big cities, the people who run the police department are appointed by the Democratic mayor.

01:02:19.000 So what do you think is going to happen?

01:02:22.000 Well, probably others are.

01:02:23.000 There's my audio here and myself talking about Viagra.

01:02:26.000 What's going to happen?

01:02:27.000 This guy's going to get arrested.

01:02:28.000 He's for sure he's been arrested.

01:02:29.000 He's going to get charged.

01:02:30.000 He's probably going to see some time.

01:02:32.000 I mean, if he hurt a bunch of cops, he's really going to get in trouble.

01:02:36.000 It sounds like he terrorized police officers on the job.

01:02:40.000 Yeah. I hope he sees some real punishment.

01:02:43.000 This is on silent.

01:02:44.000 I don't know why it's doing that.

01:02:44.000 You gotta turn the vine down, I guess.

01:02:46.000 I don't know.

01:02:46.000 Yeah. Your phone's just yelling.

01:02:49.000 That's weird.

01:02:50.000 Yeah. I don't want to give it up.

01:02:52.000 This is...

01:02:53.000 It's troubling.

01:02:55.000 It's a troubling story.

01:02:57.000 That opening paragraph.

01:02:58.000 So who supports him or who appointed him?

01:03:00.000 That's the question.

01:03:01.000 I don't know.

01:03:02.000 This didn't happen in one day.

01:03:04.000 No, no.

01:03:05.000 He clearly should lose his job.

01:03:07.000 How did he keep doing this stuff?

01:03:09.000 Oh, he kept doing it?

01:03:10.000 You know what's crazy?

01:03:11.000 Remember that cop who banged all those other cops?

01:03:13.000 It was that lady cop? 1.00

01:03:14.000 Yeah. That story would not go away.

01:03:17.000 I kind of have a feeling like this story is going to be in the news all the time.

01:03:20.000 Because, let's be honest, tariffs are boring.

01:03:24.000 Sure, it's going to change your life, but it's boring.

01:03:27.000 So when that lady cop was going around banging those other cops, every outlet was running at front page 24-7. 1.00

01:03:33.000 And I was getting frustrated, like, dude, I don't care.

01:03:36.000 But the people want what the people want, and the market dictates.

01:03:39.000 That's why I'm not a libertarian.

01:03:41.000 They do. 0.94

01:03:42.000 They liked that girl because she was cute, and the idea of her having sex with a bunch of guys, a bunch of probably simps were like, oh, I love this. 0.99

01:03:49.000 No, they were thinking, maybe she'll have sex with me. 0.98

01:03:52.000 Let me share the story. 0.98

01:03:52.000 Maybe she'll see it. 0.98

01:03:54.000 That's so creepy.

01:03:55.000 It's so creepy.

01:03:57.000 That's why stories like this take off, though.

01:03:59.000 Well, yeah.

01:04:00.000 I mean, God.

01:04:01.000 I mean, I don't know.

01:04:03.000 How did this guy not...

01:04:05.000 Oh, whoa.

01:04:06.000 What? He's been accused of being a homophobe before as well?

01:04:10.000 Well, now you've got big problems.

01:04:11.000 Yeah, that's going to get the Democrats in the area all up in arms.

01:04:15.000 We have to follow up on this if we don't get to the bottom today because I've got to know what happened to this guy.

01:04:21.000 Well... They're scared of their jobs.

01:04:24.000 They accuse...

01:04:25.000 What is this?

01:04:26.000 What is this?

01:04:27.000 The claim also accused Farley of sending a pride flag and masturbation cream to another officer's home, which his family saw, exposing himself at work at random times, and dropping drugs believed to be Viagra and Adderall into coffee.

01:04:38.000 The claim also says one officer's fish were believed to have been poisoned with drugs.

01:04:43.000 Good lord.

01:04:44.000 I mean, he's gotta lose his job.

01:04:47.000 Poisoning someone's fish.

01:04:49.000 I mean, it's not attempted homicide.

01:04:51.000 Dude, I'm sorry.

01:04:52.000 Is it attempted murder?

01:04:52.000 No. Someone's going to write a movie about this.

01:04:55.000 It's like Super Troopers.

01:04:57.000 But the guys in Super Troopers are actually not bad dudes.

01:04:59.000 Because if it happened in a movie, I'd be like, that's just so unrealistic.

01:05:02.000 If the guy walked into the chief's office and he's bent over the table and you're like, come on, that would never happen.

01:05:07.000 Apparently, reality's stranger than fiction.

01:05:10.000 Jeez, man.

01:05:11.000 Like I said, he's got to lose his job.

01:05:13.000 He's absolutely got to lose his job.

01:05:15.000 But this is the state of liberal cities, right?

01:05:18.000 This is just outside of New York City.

01:05:20.000 I do not understand why people still want to live there.

01:05:25.000 I mean...

01:05:26.000 We need to search who appointed and his name.

01:05:31.000 But outside of this guy, what's his name?

01:05:34.000 I think it's Robert Farley.

01:05:35.000 Is this the guy?

01:05:36.000 North Bergen police chief?

01:05:37.000 Yeah, Robert Farley.

01:05:39.000 But outside of this guy, this is New York, right?

01:05:43.000 This is the New York metro.

01:05:45.000 This is where people want to live.

01:05:47.000 This is where tons of people choose to be.

01:05:50.000 I do not understand.

01:05:51.000 I mean, look, I remember I went to New York for the first time.

01:05:54.000 It was crazy to see all these buildings.

01:05:55.000 And I'm from Chicago.

01:05:56.000 And I was there for like five years.

01:05:58.000 And then eventually I moved out of the city and moved to Union City, which is just on this other side of the Lincoln Tunnel.

01:06:04.000 And I was there for a little while.

01:06:05.000 And I slowly just moved farther and farther away.

01:06:08.000 The more I realized how awful it was.

01:06:09.000 The prices are too high.

01:06:11.000 The laws are insane. 0.98

01:06:13.000 The police departments are appointed by psychopathic Democrats. 0.96

01:06:15.000 People are planting bombs.

01:06:17.000 Apparently, the chief was appointed by Mayor Nick Sacco on February 1st, 2024, to answer that question.

01:06:23.000 He's only been there.

01:06:24.000 He's done all that stuff in a year?

01:06:26.000 As for why live in New York, for me, it was the 90s, and I was from a small town, so there's the excitement of a big city, and of course, New York has all that publicity.

01:06:35.000 It was also much safer in the 90s.

01:06:37.000 I lived there in the 90s, too, and that's when...

01:06:41.000 It went downhill right before Giuliani came in.

01:06:44.000 Oh, that was early 90s, right?

01:06:46.000 Yes. And it was better, apparently.

01:06:50.000 I moved away by the time Giuliani was there, but the taxi drivers, when I would go back for work, would say, everything's better, everything's different with Giuliani.

01:06:57.000 I got there in 2001.

01:06:59.000 I got there right before 9-11, and I ended up working at Ground Zero.

01:07:01.000 It was a crazy time, but it was exciting.

01:07:04.000 That was why I wanted to live there.

01:07:05.000 And then it was because before the internet, if you wanted to be rich or famous or successful, you couldn't be in a small town.

01:07:12.000 You had to go to a big city.

01:07:14.000 And so I think people are still brainwashed to think that they need to go to one of these hubs to make it, and you don't.

01:07:21.000 You don't have to, but there is something to be said for the networking aspect.

01:07:28.000 If you're around people, and this is something that Tim has talked about too, if you're around people and you're spending time with them at work, and it's why remote...

01:07:38.000 Working is bad, or is not as productive as going to a job.

01:07:43.000 If you're working on a project with a team, you'll go to lunch together, you'll inevitably talk about the project, and you'll actually get more done because you're in the presence of other people.

01:07:57.000 And when it comes to...

01:08:00.000 From my experience, from being in a band, if you're going to shows, right?

01:08:05.000 If you're going to shows during the week, you go two, three shows a week, you're hanging around with people that are in the music industry, you're making connections, bands that...

01:08:13.000 Come through.

01:08:14.000 You'll meet those bands.

01:08:16.000 You'll end up getting more tour opportunities.

01:08:18.000 You'll know people in the music industry, as in like in press, in the media.

01:08:22.000 You'll know people that are working at labels.

01:08:24.000 A ton of people are like, well, I'm going to move to California in L.A. because there is so much going on in the music industry.

01:08:33.000 And the same thing can be said for New York City.

01:08:35.000 I assume that's the same in many industries.

01:08:38.000 The reason people that are in the tech industry want to live in Silicon Valley, they'll be around other people in the tech industry.

01:08:47.000 They'll be around other people that have similar ideas, similar experiences, similar jobs.

01:08:51.000 There is something to be said for having the access to an infrastructure of people or networking of people.

01:08:58.000 Cheryl, did you like...

01:09:00.000 Did you move there and then develop a networking and establish a career and then leave and go somewhere smaller?

01:09:05.000 What was your flow?

01:09:06.000 I went from local news to CNN back when it was a news organization in 1990 and 1993.

01:09:13.000 Then all the networks offered me jobs in New York, kind of had to go there if I wanted to try the next thing.

01:09:19.000 Did not like New York.

01:09:21.000 Didn't live there very long, working for CBS News.

01:09:23.000 They gave me a choice to stay there or move overseas to report or move to Washington, D.C. and report, which is, I took the latter, Washington, D.C. But living in New York, I think it's cute at first because you're living the New York life and everybody's rude and mean.

01:09:38.000 It's funny because I'm from the South.

01:09:41.000 So my husband used to say it's like a circus every day.

01:09:43.000 You get up and you go out and see the carnival.

01:09:45.000 Then, to me, it gets tiring.

01:09:47.000 After you live that way for a while, it ceases to become cute, and it's just tiring.

01:09:52.000 Oh, God.

01:09:52.000 Literally, because the brake dust...

01:09:53.000 Smells like sour milk.

01:09:54.000 Yeah, that brake dust comes off the brakes in cars.

01:09:58.000 It's so small, fine particulates, that it gets through the aviola and the lungs, right into your bloodstream.

01:10:04.000 Talk about exhaust.

01:10:04.000 Like, you literally exhaust.

01:10:05.000 Physically, it will exhaust your body.

01:10:07.000 You can...

01:10:09.000 Wipe your apartment down if you live in Manhattan and you try to open the windows and wipe it down twice a day.

01:10:14.000 You'll never get rid of the dirt.

01:10:15.000 It's like black stuff on the windowsill.

01:10:18.000 Let's jump to this next story, ladies and gentlemen.

01:10:20.000 We covered this last week.

01:10:22.000 Experts now even more confident a vast city exists under Giza pyramids in Egypt after new discovery.

01:10:29.000 Scientists on a mission to prove a vast city sits more than 4,000 feet below Egypt's Giza pyramids have released a new analysis they say proves the findings to be true.

01:10:38.000 Take a look at this.

01:10:39.000 This is what they're claiming.

01:10:41.000 Let's zoom out.

01:10:43.000 They're claiming that under the pyramids, look at this, the Great Pyramid of Giza.

01:10:46.000 How do you pronounce that?

01:10:48.000 Kafra. Kafra and Mancare.

01:10:50.000 Mancare? Yeah.

01:10:52.000 Underneath it, they say there's giant vertical shafts, eight vertically aligned cylindrical structures arranged in two parallel rows from north to south, descends to a depth of more than 2,100 feet.

01:11:05.000 And look at this.

01:11:06.000 This is what they're claiming.

01:11:08.000 So now you've got people like Ian claiming that they're giant batteries or something.

01:11:13.000 Yeah, I'll tell you the truth.

01:11:14.000 I made a video yesterday about this, and I've been doing research on it all week.

01:11:17.000 There's no corroborating evidence that I can find.

01:11:19.000 This is just some Italian scientists.

01:11:21.000 They say a confidence level above 85%.

01:11:23.000 That's awesome, because I want it to be true.

01:11:25.000 It's just, I need to see the scientific paper before I start to throw weight behind it.

01:11:29.000 But if it was real, and they had wells underneath the pyramids that were that deep, down to the aquifers underneath, they might have been tapping into what's called a telluric current.

01:11:37.000 It's T-E-L-L-U-R-I-C. 1.00

01:11:39.000 That sounds like something you made up.

01:11:40.000 Yeah, but in fact, I didn't.

01:11:41.000 It's called a telluric current.

01:11:43.000 It means earth current.

01:11:44.000 And it's this low-voltage current that travels around the planet and follows water.

01:11:48.000 Electrical current.

01:11:49.000 It didn't make it up, in fact.

01:11:51.000 It's an electrical current that flows underground or through the sea, resulting in the natural...

01:11:55.000 From natural and human-induced causes, extremely low frequency.

01:11:58.000 And it'll actually go out of the Earth, out into the Sun.

01:12:01.000 And it goes into the Sun and then comes back to the Earth through the poles, and there's this flow.

01:12:05.000 And so Tesla, Nikola Tesla, was obsessed with tapping into the Earth's telluric current to produce power.

01:12:11.000 So if these guys had water down there, they're tapping into this electrolyte of salt water, and then they had a conductor in these wells, it could have been sending a charge up to the top, which is where they've got these granite...

01:12:23.000 What they call the King's Chamber in the Great Pyramid.

01:12:25.000 It's one of them.

01:12:26.000 It's granite.

01:12:27.000 Everything else is limestone in the pyramid.

01:12:28.000 It's made of granite.

01:12:29.000 Essentially everything else.

01:12:30.000 And why?

01:12:31.000 Granite's a crystal.

01:12:32.000 It vibrates.

01:12:33.000 It's very dense.

01:12:34.000 It's very strong.

01:12:35.000 So they have these identical five granite structures that look like powered nodes, like power station nodes.

01:12:41.000 And it's possible that they were vibrating and creating an electrical charge that was like a Tesla coil.

01:12:46.000 If you hold an incandescent light up near an active Tesla coil, it lights up.

01:12:50.000 So that these pyramids might have been lighting up the vicinity.

01:12:53.000 You think they were lighting up?

01:12:54.000 Yeah, maybe.

01:12:56.000 Because there's no fire in the pyramids.

01:12:58.000 The oil companies have had the technology for a long time to see pretty deep with precision into the ocean floor and into the ground.

01:13:06.000 This seems like it'd be pretty easy to figure out.

01:13:09.000 I think that's what they did.

01:13:11.000 They're using non-penetrating technologies.

01:13:13.000 We could get a second party to come in and ask BP to go in there and take a look or something.

01:13:17.000 The problem they've had before is they were using photons, I believe, to measure.

01:13:20.000 And if you have lots of different objects...

01:13:23.000 You can't penetrate all the objects properly.

01:13:25.000 They diffract and they stop each other.

01:13:27.000 But now what this guy claims to have done, these scientists, is that they are converting photonic data into phonons, which are sound, lower frequency, and they're able to measure seismic data, seismic activity, and so they can see around everything that's inside.

01:13:39.000 And they said, literally, these were transparent.

01:13:41.000 With their technology, the pyramids become transparent.

01:13:45.000 But I'm waiting on the scientific paper.

01:13:47.000 I'm just wondering how nobody found these before just by digging.

01:13:51.000 I mean, like, people have gone in the pyramids.

01:13:53.000 We're so early.

01:13:53.000 Didn't Mr. Beast go in the pyramids?

01:13:55.000 Yeah, he went under the pyramids.

01:13:56.000 Jimmy Corsetti posted about that.

01:13:57.000 He said this is, it basically debunks this claim.

01:14:01.000 Mr. Beast was under Jimmy, I don't know what Jimmy's last name is, Mr. Beast.

01:14:05.000 But I'm talking about Jimmy, yeah.

01:14:06.000 Jimmy Beast.

01:14:06.000 Jimmy Beast was down there in the waterways under the pyramids, apparently.

01:14:11.000 I guess, I don't know.

01:14:12.000 I don't know if he was...

01:14:14.000 I gotta ask him.

01:14:15.000 Just the idea that...

01:14:16.000 Yo, what?

01:14:17.000 Look at this.

01:14:18.000 You know, if they did have electricity, if they had access to some kind of electricity like that, I mean, that really would end up changing everything we know about history.

01:14:28.000 So what if they're gigantic, like, copper cylinders with wire winding all around them?

01:14:35.000 That'd be so cool.

01:14:37.000 That'd be terrifying, actually.

01:14:38.000 They said those were spiral staircases, so they might have went down to those cubes.

01:14:41.000 The cubes, apparently, I think they're hollow, and the water was flowing through the cubes.

01:14:45.000 Those are stairs.

01:14:47.000 Well, that's what they said.

01:14:48.000 2,100-foot-tall spiral staircases?

01:14:51.000 That's what they said.

01:14:51.000 That's a long staircase.

01:14:52.000 I know, because I thought they were coils.

01:14:53.000 At first, I was like, well, you said they were made of a conductor, and those were the coils, but maybe they dipped the conductor into the well.

01:14:59.000 It's one of the two, if that were...

01:15:01.000 The direction they were heading.

01:15:02.000 But then in ancient Egypt, they talked about the underworld under the pyramids where souls would go.

01:15:06.000 I think it's Amenath or something in the Book of the Dead.

01:15:11.000 Yeah, they talk about it.

01:15:12.000 And people would go under the pyramids and their souls would get washed away into this flow, perhaps the taluric current.

01:15:19.000 And from the flow would come the souls.

01:15:21.000 And they would teach people, when you're about to die, these are the things you say to the spirits.

01:15:27.000 This is how you navigate that realm.

01:15:28.000 You're saying that...

01:15:29.000 Electricity doesn't exist.

01:15:31.000 It's actually souls of all the dead people in the ground and their energy is being harnessed.

01:15:36.000 Maybe it's the same thing.

01:15:37.000 My car runs on ghosts.

01:15:40.000 Maybe true.

01:15:41.000 Shoving ghosts into my car.

01:15:42.000 What's weird is...

01:15:43.000 Get around.

01:15:44.000 I had originally said it's an ancient culture before Egypt, before the Egyptians.

01:15:48.000 10,000, 15,000 years ago, they had this technology, Atlantis, and it was washed away.

01:15:53.000 And then the Egyptians came and they built on top of it. 1.00

01:15:55.000 And they didn't know what the hell was going on.

01:15:57.000 But... These underground, the pyramids, is limestone.

01:15:59.000 And everyone's like, where did they get the limestone for the pyramids?

01:16:01.000 Well, they dug it from underneath, apparently, if this is true.

01:16:04.000 So it would have been the Egyptians that built on top, would have mined it then. 1.00

01:16:08.000 But if the Egyptians built the mine, then it wouldn't have been the ancient culture that built the mine.

01:16:11.000 You know what would be cool?

01:16:12.000 If they, like, dig into there, and there's this massively advanced city.

01:16:18.000 But, like, abandoned.

01:16:19.000 It's been there for 4,000 years.

01:16:21.000 I hope it's abandoned.

01:16:21.000 I hope there is.

01:16:24.000 No, there's dinosaurs down there. 0.94

01:16:26.000 And they're trying to press the buttons, but their arms aren't long enough, and they're like, this sucks.

01:16:29.000 What if there's an ancient battery?

01:16:31.000 It's called the Baghdad battery.

01:16:32.000 This is where it really got the idea.

01:16:33.000 And it's a copper, or it's like a clay pot, and they'll fill it with an electrolyte, like vinegar, or wine, or something like that.

01:16:40.000 And then they'll do the iron rod with the copper wiring, or copper rod.

01:16:44.000 It's an iron rod with copper wiring.

01:16:45.000 And they get an electrical charge, and then they can link the...

01:16:47.000 So I was...

01:16:48.000 That's the best of my submission, man.

01:16:49.000 I hope it's real.

01:16:52.000 Yeah, this is pretty crazy.

01:16:53.000 It's true, though. 0.82

01:16:53.000 It is... 0.82

01:16:54.000 I mean, apparently it is real.

01:16:56.000 It's just a matter of, you know, can we actually figure out what it is?

01:16:59.000 Because if those scientists lied, their reputations are destroyed forever and no one will ever take them seriously for the rest of eternity.

01:17:06.000 So why would they lie about this?

01:17:07.000 Why don't they scan under other pyramids?

01:17:08.000 They did.

01:17:09.000 In 2022, they scanned the Great Pyramid with the same technology.

01:17:14.000 They have an interesting...

01:17:14.000 But what about the other pyramids in Central America?

01:17:17.000 I don't know yet.

01:17:17.000 Look, there are people that make mistakes.

01:17:19.000 There are people out there that will swear up and down the Earth is flat.

01:17:22.000 So listen, there was a story a couple years ago that cracked me up and reminds me about when people talk about science as if it's something you can say is exact.

01:17:31.000 We reported on CBS when I was working there that they had found what appeared to be the oldest man that was still intact.

01:17:38.000 And they gave some date of billions, millions of years old.

01:17:41.000 He was naked, wearing no clothes, found him at the top of the mountain in some foreign countryside.

01:17:45.000 We did a little reader on that on the news.

01:17:47.000 The next day, there was a little correction on Associated Press that said...

01:17:51.000 The daughter of the man recognized that as her father, who had disappeared a couple years ago climbing up the mountain.

01:17:57.000 I'm like, okay, the scientist said this was the oldest guy that they'd ever seen preserved in ice, and it was really just this woman's father.

01:18:04.000 Well, I remember back in the day, every other day, coffee either caused or cured cancer.

01:18:10.000 News would be like, coffee will help prevent cancer the next day.

01:18:13.000 Coffee may actually cause cancer, and it's like, okay.

01:18:15.000 Cholesterol too.

01:18:16.000 Cholesterol good, cholesterol bad.

01:18:17.000 Remember, you know, fat was bad.

01:18:19.000 Everybody had low fat, everything.

01:18:20.000 Yes. Now sugar's bad.

01:18:22.000 Yeah, they did that sugar-free craze.

01:18:25.000 They claim that the sugar industry ran a propaganda campaign against fat, blaming fat for weight gain and stuff.

01:18:33.000 I think there's good evidence about it.

01:18:34.000 Katie Couric's documentary, Fed Up, is all about that.

01:18:37.000 Wouldn't it be funny if in 20 years they're like, actually, fat was bad the whole time, and the fat industry ran a campaign against the sugar industry, accusing them of a...

01:18:43.000 It's so frustrating, but I wouldn't be shocked.

01:18:46.000 To be fair, though, you need fat to regulate hormones?

01:18:49.000 And so when people were cutting all that fat out of their diets and eating gelatin and other garbage, like gum.

01:18:54.000 Especially saturated fats.

01:18:56.000 Those are good.

01:18:56.000 To be fair, you look at cows getting fat, not eating fat, but eating hay and corn.

01:19:05.000 That's what makes them fat. 0.93

01:19:07.000 Actually, I think cows eat bacteria. 0.76

01:19:10.000 Isn't that what they do?

01:19:11.000 Yeah, they chew on the cud. 0.98

01:19:13.000 The bacteria then starts growing on it.

01:19:15.000 So they eat the grass.

01:19:17.000 It goes in their stomach.

01:19:17.000 They spit it up, chew on it again.

01:19:19.000 The bacteria grows on it, and then their body digests the bacteria.

01:19:22.000 Is that the good stuff we want in our gut?

01:19:24.000 You know how they say we have to have the good?

01:19:26.000 All right.

01:19:27.000 We should chew our cud.

01:19:28.000 Haven't you been doing deep dives on health?

01:19:30.000 Not that.

01:19:31.000 But yeah, I've been doing deep dives on some of the stuff you guys are alluding to about the manipulation of the health information and why we've got all these chronic health disorders.

01:19:41.000 Well, you saw the West Virginia banning artificial dyes.

01:19:43.000 Yes, I reported on that, in fact.

01:19:45.000 I think a lot of bans are about to come because this has been on the precipice of it with the FDA taking action.

01:19:51.000 Finally, on the eve of Donald Trump taking office, they finally have decided to take action on a couple of these things like red dye.

01:19:59.000 Number three, I think they're going to ban fluoride.

01:20:01.000 You know, everybody says that's a conspiracy theory.

01:20:03.000 You think the government's going to ban fluoride in water?

01:20:06.000 Yeah. Why do you think that?

01:20:08.000 There's been a court decision in California that, I don't know why more people haven't reported it, but based on the scientific evidence that has established that fluoride at levels typically found in...

01:20:19.000 When was this ruling?

01:20:23.000 In the last six months.

01:20:24.000 September? Ish.

01:20:26.000 And the court ordered the EPA to make a determination as to...

01:20:31.000 What should be done to make it safe?

01:20:34.000 And since there's no way to make it safe because you can't regulate how much fluoride a person gets because you don't know how much water an individual is drinking or getting in all of their products.

01:20:43.000 Let's start from the top because I pulled this up.

01:20:45.000 This is from CBS News.

01:20:46.000 Federal court rules against EPA in lawsuit over fluoride in water.

01:20:50.000 Is this the story that you're talking about?

01:20:52.000 Yeah, but you could look at Full Measure with Sheryl Ackeson and see an even better story.

01:20:56.000 Let's pull that up.

01:21:00.000 Excuse me.

01:21:01.000 So what's the gist of this?

01:21:02.000 The gist is the court agrees there's overwhelming scientific evidence as to the risks and dangers of fluoride in water, and the EPA is under an order now to come up with some kind of policy decision that there seems to be no way out.

01:21:16.000 The EPA cannot certify that fluoride is safe in the water, so as a result, they're going to have to likely admit that it's not safe, which will then mean states can't, states, communities, cities, and so on.

01:21:27.000 So CBS says a federal court in California ruled late Tuesday against the EPA ordering officials take action over concerns about potential health risks from currently recommended levels of fluoride in the American drinking water supply.

01:21:38.000 The ruling by D.C. 0.77

01:21:39.000 Judge Edward Chen, an appointee of Obama, deals a blow to public health groups in the growing debate about whether the benefits of continuing to add fluoride to the water outweighs the rest.

01:21:48.000 I am confused.

01:21:48.000 Are they saying public health groups want fluoride in water?

01:21:52.000 Yes, because they're bought out by the fluoride industry, which is a very well-funded and orchestrated propaganda campaign that began when it was discovered that fluoride was a byproduct of industrial processes and was too dangerous to dispose of in the ground.

01:22:08.000 I think we're talking 1920s, 1930s.

01:22:11.000 Industries were going to have to figure out a way, and it was going to be expensive, to dispose of the dangerous fluoride.

01:22:16.000 And instead, they found a way to market it to communities as something that we should put...

01:22:21.000 They're supposed to keep it out of the environment, but then they sold it to communities as a way to put it in your environment and in your food and in your water and make your teeth better.

01:22:31.000 And the evidence was dubious, and there are questions over whether the studies actually even showed that was the case.

01:22:36.000 But there's no doubt now, I think if you look at it, the overwhelming body of science, particularly the independent science that's not connected to industry, shows there's all kinds of health.

01:22:46.000 Yeah. And think about children, little babies and so on.

01:23:06.000 It can have all kinds of harmful effects.

01:23:08.000 We've got this from SF Chronicle.

01:23:11.000 This California city is fluoride-free.

01:23:14.000 Dentists there worry about the trend spreading.

01:23:17.000 I've always loved this because it's like, I have fluoride in my toothpaste.

01:23:20.000 I don't need to eat it.

01:23:22.000 You don't.

01:23:23.000 You're supposed to not eat it.

01:23:24.000 In fact, there's a question as to whether you're not supposed to eat it and how bad it may be when you're drinking it, how much benefit that can be to your teeth.

01:23:31.000 Here's a story from Royals.

01:23:33.000 EPA must address fluoridated water's risk to children's IQs, U.S. judge rules.

01:23:38.000 So I got a story for you guys.

01:23:40.000 I had a friend 20 years ago whose sister had a kid.

01:23:43.000 And I walked through his kitchen and it had nursery water with added fluoride.

01:23:48.000 And I said, why are you giving fluoride water to the baby?

01:23:52.000 And they said, it's nursery water, it's for babies.

01:23:54.000 And I said, no, you don't give, babies don't have teeth. 1.00

01:23:57.000 And they were like, no, no, babies need fluoride.

01:23:59.000 And I was like, no, they don't.

01:24:01.000 They don't need fluoride.

01:24:02.000 She didn't believe me.

01:24:03.000 So I just googled fluoride babies and everything that popped up was a warning, do not give your baby fluoride.

01:24:09.000 And I said, why are they giving fluoridated water to babies?

01:24:12.000 This is currently right now, they sell this in stores, extra fluoride water for babies.

01:24:17.000 Babies don't have teeth. 1.00

01:24:18.000 Should not be legal.

01:24:19.000 Is it just pure profit?

01:24:22.000 What did you find?

01:24:22.000 Well, it's a propaganda campaign that's bolstered by the industry that then teaches dentists, who some of them may not know better, because like med schools, the dental schools are conflicted by industry teachings and so on.

01:24:34.000 And it's just become this thing.

01:24:36.000 But again, if you look, there's quite a body of science that undercuts any notion that this is something where the benefits outweigh the risks.

01:24:44.000 And finally, now that a court has agreed, an important federal court, the EPA has to make a decision.

01:24:49.000 And this was said before Trump took office, but now with Trump in office, there's a chance they may do the logical, scientific thing.

01:24:56.000 It's important to know that fluoride, as far as I know, and this could be wrong, but what I've learned is it is good, well, good maybe, for the enamel, for tooth enamel.

01:25:05.000 It mineralizes enamel.

01:25:07.000 If you're an adult and you have teeth and you're brushing your teeth with it, you spit it out and don't swallow it.

01:25:11.000 But even then, it gets on your gums and goes into the bloodstream through the gum.

01:25:14.000 Sure. So that's toxin, if you would consider it a toxin.

01:25:18.000 Don't swallow it.

01:25:19.000 A lot of things are, okay?

01:25:20.000 You put a lot of things on your skin that you don't actually want to use.

01:25:23.000 Exactly, yeah.

01:25:24.000 Well, you shouldn't put paint on your skin, but there are chemicals you can put on your skin you can't eat, right?

01:25:28.000 You're not going to eat deodorant.

01:25:29.000 Correct, correct.

01:25:30.000 You don't get much.

01:25:30.000 If you spit it out, you're not getting it all.

01:25:32.000 You don't want to swallow it.

01:25:33.000 How about this?

01:25:33.000 They outlawed red dye number three in cosmetics a couple decades ago, but left it in the food under a technicality where they just didn't process that part.

01:25:43.000 Well, you saw that RFK Jr. wants to get rid of the grass exceptions, but generally recognized as safe.

01:25:53.000 Oh, yes.

01:25:53.000 So we talked about propylene glycol, which is used as—I forgot what the word is, but it's to make food seem moist.

01:26:02.000 It's this jelly— It's an antifreeze.

01:26:06.000 They say it's fine to eat, so they put it in...

01:26:08.000 If you go to a gas station to buy a bakery product, it's probably got propylene glycol in it.

01:26:12.000 It simulates moistness, because otherwise they dry out.

01:26:16.000 Then there's trisodium phosphate.

01:26:18.000 Some guy had a viral video where he said, this is in Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but if you look at the bag of trisodium phosphate, it says, harmful if ingested.

01:26:26.000 So how is it in our food?

01:26:28.000 Also, generally recognized as safe.

01:26:30.000 RFK Jr. says he's going to get rid of this exception.

01:26:32.000 And that anybody who wants to put any kind of chemicals in food has to get them tested for the health effects on humans.

01:26:38.000 I mean, it makes sense.

01:26:39.000 I don't understand.

01:26:40.000 It's one of the most important things that we could be doing.

01:26:42.000 It's what we're feeding our kids.

01:26:45.000 I'm older than you guys.

01:26:47.000 But as a kid, we used to read cereal boxes in the morning because there was nothing else to do.

01:26:51.000 We didn't have, you know, phones.

01:26:52.000 And we would read the ingredients and we'd quiz each other.

01:26:55.000 And I always saw BHA and BHT added for freshness.

01:26:59.000 And as a joke, before I started covering these things, maybe a decade or two ago, I would say to my siblings, what if we find out BHA and BHT added for freshness is actually like causing cancer or bad force?

01:27:10.000 It is.

01:27:11.000 These are preservatives that they now recognize have all kinds of issues that they've been shoving into cereal that we've been spooning to ourselves and our kids.

01:27:19.000 Why is that allowed?

01:27:20.000 You know, the generally recognized safe.

01:27:22.000 I wonder why, because obviously it's profitable.

01:27:25.000 So they're paying people off to not to look the other way.

01:27:27.000 But it's like just in the US, a lot of these, and they're banned in Europe.

01:27:31.000 So is this like European bankers that are like, let's destroy America from the inside. 0.95

01:27:35.000 We'll profit and we'll poison them. 0.96

01:27:36.000 This is great. 0.98

01:27:38.000 It just seems to be that the US has been easier for whatever reason.

01:27:42.000 It probably happens in Europe as well.

01:27:44.000 But we've been the kings of being able to be captured by industry when I'm talking about our political parties and our agencies.

01:27:51.000 Do you think it's really, I mean, it's impossible to derive if it's...

01:27:54.000 What kind of malfeasance is going on, but you think it's mostly profit from your research?

01:27:58.000 Yeah, I mean, I think these special interests have figured out how to control our information landscape.

01:28:04.000 That's the realm in which I work, and I've written a lot about this, and as such have been able to control a lot about any kind of regulation and hearings and rules that would take place in laws.

01:28:15.000 So it's just sort of a free-for-all for them.

01:28:18.000 And then the media, because we're captured, we're not doing the proper oversight.

01:28:22.000 We used to kind of be the equalizer.

01:28:23.000 We could step in if maybe members of Congress were corrupt and the federal agencies weren't doing their job.

01:28:29.000 There were we.

01:28:30.000 But now we've stepped back too because starting, in my view, around the 2005-2006 time period, we got captured worse than ever before.

01:28:38.000 And now you don't see the media doing the fair, dual-sided stories as much.

01:28:42.000 Abolish the FDA too.

01:28:44.000 I mean, if they exist and all these things have happened that are negatively impacting people, then the FDA is not fit for purpose.

01:28:53.000 I'd be open to retrofitting the FDA.

01:28:56.000 If it actually worked, let's get rid of it.

01:28:58.000 But some oversight might be nice.

01:29:00.000 That's what insurance companies are for.

01:29:02.000 I disagree.

01:29:03.000 I think we need more regulation. 0.99

01:29:05.000 You've got to protect the dumb masses. 1.00

01:29:07.000 It's not about protect the dumb masses. 1.00

01:29:09.000 It's that the average person doesn't understand. 0.95

01:29:13.000 When they put yellow 5 on a food box, what is that?

01:29:17.000 And the average person just thinks yellow dye is, like, not a big deal.

01:29:21.000 If they were forced to actually put the name of that product, and they should be, how about we play this game?

01:29:27.000 Don't ban the artificial dyes.

01:29:28.000 Name them.

01:29:29.000 So yellow 5, they would put tartrazine, parentheses, coal tar derivative.

01:29:33.000 See if people want to eat that.

01:29:34.000 Okay. Do you guys know about the UCAP?

01:29:36.000 Mm-mm.

01:29:37.000 So it does kind of what you're saying, why I love it.

01:29:40.000 You can use this and scan anything at the grocery store, even cosmetics.

01:29:44.000 I accidentally scanned something or stuff you put on your face.

01:29:46.000 And it not only tells you the health stuff, which I think a lot of apps do, like what's good or what's bad.

01:29:52.000 It tells you these additives and chemicals and preservatives and what they cause.

01:29:56.000 So instead of having that cute little name, you can click the button.

01:29:59.000 It rates the food good, bad, poor, whatever.

01:30:02.000 But then it tells you why.

01:30:04.000 And when I'm looking at food now...

01:30:07.000 If it says, oh, maybe it's got a little too much fat in it, I'm okay with that.

01:30:11.000 I'm looking for the chemical stuff in there and the cancer-causing stuff.

01:30:14.000 I got bad news for Maha.

01:30:16.000 I got bad news, Phil.

01:30:19.000 We can tell people that we want to make food better.

01:30:24.000 We can ban artificial dyes.

01:30:26.000 We can do all of those things.

01:30:28.000 But there is a commercial on TV, several actually, where a man eats a slice of pizza and then goes, oh!

01:30:35.000 And then it's like, your favorite food's causing you pain?

01:30:38.000 Take this pill.

01:30:39.000 I'm not going to name what drug it is.

01:30:40.000 He then takes the pill and smiles and eats the pizza.

01:30:42.000 And I'm just sitting there thinking like, dude, if doing something is hurting you, you're supposed to stop doing it.

01:30:48.000 But imagine there's a guy putting his hand on an electric stove and going, oh, it burns, but I really want to.

01:30:54.000 So we take this painkiller.

01:30:55.000 This Novocaine in your hand.

01:30:56.000 And he's like, ah.

01:30:58.000 Now I can keep doing this thing.

01:30:59.000 It's like, bro, you're hurting yourself.

01:31:00.000 People will choose to eat things that kill them.

01:31:04.000 And take drugs to mask the pain.

01:31:06.000 So I don't think that actually labeling the food is going to save the average person.

01:31:10.000 That being said, there's a mom out there who doesn't know when she buys cereal that she's giving her kids some pesticide or some other garbage. 1.00

01:31:18.000 And if she did, she wouldn't buy it.

01:31:20.000 Yeah, like hyperlinks.

01:31:22.000 We're not there yet.

01:31:23.000 We're still using paper where you just can't...

01:31:26.000 Touch a piece of paper and get a hyperlink.

01:31:27.000 But soon, maybe with graphene, you know, if our labels are also have an electrical current going through them, they can store a little bit of a charge and they have Wi-Fi access, you can tap the label on the ingredient and it will take you to show you the issues.

01:31:40.000 And it'll be red if there's health concerns associated with the ingredient.

01:31:44.000 But here's the thing.

01:31:44.000 A lot of these products are already less adulterated in Europe, for example.

01:31:50.000 And I think all Kennedy needs to do, and I think he has plans to do this, is require more disclosure and warnings, and some will just change the recipe.

01:31:59.000 I mean, a lot of them will choose not to put the warning on there, but to adopt a recipe that they're already using in Europe because they don't allow it there.

01:32:06.000 I think, you know, West Virginia is banning artificial dyes.

01:32:10.000 At first I was thinking this could shift the national food supply, as big companies are going to say.

01:32:16.000 It's probably cheaper just to change our product than lose West Virginia entirely as a market.

01:32:21.000 But then I remembered what these companies said about why they use these dyes in the first place.

01:32:26.000 When they tried using the natural food dyes, which are actually in some instances cheaper, they didn't sell as well.

01:32:33.000 People wanted the brighter, vibrant colors.

01:32:35.000 So they tried using blueberries and carrots.

01:32:38.000 They switched back to artificial dyes.

01:32:40.000 They're going to say, if we switch to these dull colors using fruit dyes, We're going to lose a billion dollars.

01:32:48.000 West Virginia is not the only one.

01:32:50.000 I think there's a dozen states or more that are looking at the same.

01:32:53.000 It's a trend because people are starting to recognize it.

01:32:56.000 And maybe there's some hope in the idea that you're right.

01:32:59.000 A lot of people are still going to choose to do what they want to do regardless of the disclosure.

01:33:03.000 But I think a lot of people aren't.

01:33:05.000 You talk about the moms that wouldn't be giving their kids that cereal.

01:33:08.000 They're either going to have to change the formula of cereal or at least offer some better choices.

01:33:12.000 I think it'll be...

01:33:14.000 There will be a big difference for a lot of people.

01:33:15.000 Yeah, I saw an episode of I think it was Diary of a CEO and they were talking about that alcohol with Gen Z is like 20% what it used to be.

01:33:24.000 Like this generation is awake when it comes to health.

01:33:27.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:33:28.000 People aren't drinking sodas anymore.

01:33:30.000 That's why they're doing all these soda commercials now where they're bragging about how they have low sugar options.

01:33:36.000 But it's because the younger generations are not drinking sodas.

01:33:38.000 Do you know, I drank a Coke every day, at least once since I was a kid, because that's my coffee in the morning, and I stopped, I think, three and a half weeks ago today.

01:33:47.000 Wow. No Coke.

01:33:48.000 Awesome. I listened to a podcast about sugars and sucrose and fructose, and I'm like, oh, dang, something else I gotta...

01:33:54.000 Cut out, but it's so bad.

01:33:56.000 Not just shocking the liver and turning into fat.

01:33:58.000 Yeah, and the insulin and your metabolism.

01:34:00.000 You'll also notice that millennials tend to say, how come people looked so much older back then?

01:34:06.000 Like, they show pictures of the Seinfeld cast, and they're like, these people were in their early 30s, like late 20s, early 30s, and they looked like they were 40s, late 40s.

01:34:15.000 What was causing it?

01:34:16.000 I think it's actually pretty easy.

01:34:18.000 Three things.

01:34:19.000 The first is the obvious.

01:34:20.000 They drank a lot more back then.

01:34:22.000 They smoked a lot more back then.

01:34:24.000 But more importantly, they also went outside a lot more.

01:34:26.000 And the sun damages your skin.

01:34:28.000 So you combine those things.

01:34:30.000 The reason why I think that the current, you know, millennials and Gen Z look a lot younger.

01:34:34.000 Even Gen X looks a lot younger.

01:34:36.000 A lot less time spent outdoors.

01:34:38.000 A lot less sun damage on the skin.

01:34:41.000 What is your theory about Donald Trump?

01:34:44.000 So he's 78 years old.

01:34:46.000 My husband's 78 years old.

01:34:47.000 He's got a lot of health issues and problems.

01:34:50.000 But I know a lot of 78-year-old guys.

01:34:52.000 I don't know any of them that move and act like Donald Trump.

01:34:55.000 Trump never drank.

01:34:56.000 Okay. He claims to have never had a drink.

01:34:58.000 And you know it's true, because if anyone had ever seen him sip anything, we'd know about it.

01:35:03.000 Well, they've claimed it, but his story is that he's never had a drink.

01:35:06.000 His brother was an alcoholic, and it terrified him.

01:35:09.000 And so he stayed away from it.

01:35:11.000 Some people have argued they've seen him holding drinks at parties, and that's their proof.

01:35:15.000 B.S. You'll see me holding a drink at a party.

01:35:17.000 It's going to be a club soda with a splash of cranberry, and it's not alcoholic.

01:35:20.000 So they may have seen Trump holding something.

01:35:22.000 It could have been apple juice, for all they know.

01:35:25.000 So the other day...

01:35:27.000 During the interview, which I mentioned, he was three hours late because he was talking to NATO and dealing with Russia.

01:35:34.000 And he walks in, having not had dinner yet, because I asked him, late.

01:35:39.000 And he strolls in like a guy who's 30 years old.

01:35:41.000 I know he doesn't look like he's 30. I'm not saying that.

01:35:43.000 But he moves like a boss.

01:35:45.000 And I'm thinking, I don't know 78-year-old guys.

01:35:48.000 And I do wonder, is it true that you destroy all the brain cells?

01:35:51.000 You know, you heard when you were a kid.

01:35:53.000 I did.

01:35:54.000 You destroy 10,000 brain cells every time you get drunk.

01:35:57.000 Do you ever hear that?

01:35:58.000 Something like that.

01:35:59.000 There's a phenomenon called neurogenesis where your body recreates neurons and grows new neurons.

01:36:04.000 And Trump might just because, you know, he's living his best self.

01:36:06.000 He's like truly in line with God, whether you like him or not.

01:36:09.000 He's like being his ultimate version of who he can be.

01:36:12.000 So he's aligned.

01:36:13.000 He's not stressed.

01:36:13.000 He doesn't seem stressed about secrets and all these.

01:36:16.000 He's like just doing.

01:36:17.000 So that keeps you young, you know, doing what you love.

01:36:21.000 Also, and this is maybe too hot for TV, but. 0.82

01:36:24.000 A lot comes down to prostate health and guys that, you know, the word is ejaculate five times a week.

01:36:30.000 There's science about, like, that can keep you extremely healthy.

01:36:33.000 You're saying Donald Trump's.

01:36:34.000 I did not know that.

01:36:36.000 Yeah, he might just be like, Melania, you are the hottest, like, and you know she's down.

01:36:39.000 And the reason she always looks so frumpy is because she's tired.

01:36:41.000 Yeah. I mean, can you imagine keeping up with that guy?

01:36:45.000 All right, we're going to go to Super Chats and Rumble Rants, my friends.

01:38:06.000 Let's see what we got going on over here.

01:38:09.000 Insert generic names as obligatory.

01:38:11.000 We are in labor.

01:38:13.000 With Timcast in the background.

01:38:14.000 Oh, wow.

01:38:15.000 Congratulations. Hopefully welcoming our baby girl into the world soon.

01:38:20.000 Congratulations. I recommend it.

01:38:23.000 Recommend it as a new father myself.

01:38:25.000 It's very inspiring.

01:38:26.000 You know, what's funny is, I can't speak for all parents, but I see these movies where the baby's crying and the parents are getting frustrated.

01:38:33.000 Like, I don't understand why you're crying.

01:38:35.000 I do not feel any annoyance or any anger or anything when the baby cries.

01:38:40.000 It's usually just, you know, she's hungry.

01:38:42.000 And then when Allison's like either getting a bottle ready, because we're trying not to do formula, but we do a little bit, and she's just screaming, I just got a smile on my face.

01:38:53.000 You know, baby's crying, she's screaming like the world's ending, but it's okay, in one minute your bottle will be here, and then she stops.

01:38:58.000 Does Allison have, so as a mom, I had a involuntary reaction of just sweat and...

01:39:05.000 I need to help the baby.

01:39:06.000 I didn't even mean to.

01:39:07.000 My husband was very calm and collected, and I would just be like, I gotta help the baby, gotta help the baby.

01:39:12.000 I just need to say this, okay, because as a new father, again, there's a lot of dads out there and a lot of moms who already know everything, and way more than I do.

01:39:22.000 I am shocked by the pro-life arguments missing some of the most important points.

01:39:27.000 I've been watching pro-life, pro-choice debates my whole life, and it was only...

01:39:33.000 I think, I don't know, within the past few years that I learned why formula was so important when the formula shortage happened.

01:39:38.000 I was like, we need formula for.

01:39:40.000 I had never experienced it.

01:39:42.000 And there were parents who were like, sometimes mom doesn't produce enough milk.

01:39:45.000 And then baby goes hungry and is screaming and needs that food because baby can lose weight very quickly.

01:39:51.000 And I was like, really?

01:39:52.000 I never considered that.

01:39:53.000 So I see these arguments.

01:39:55.000 And there was one recently where the woman said, you know, a baby's not alive.

01:39:59.000 It's the mother's body.

01:40:00.000 It's just a fetus.

01:40:01.000 And the woman said, at what point is the baby alive?

01:40:03.000 The woman then says, once it's able to survive on its own.

01:40:07.000 And the woman said, well, babies can't take care of themselves, right?

01:40:11.000 Someone's got to take care of them.

01:40:12.000 Wrong. Babies literally need mother's milk. 1.00

01:40:17.000 Like, babies can't eat food.

01:40:19.000 How about that?

01:40:20.000 You tell the pro-choice people, like, when the baby's born and it's able to survive on its own, oh, you what, you mean it like six, seven months maybe?

01:40:27.000 When it can start eating mashed fruits?

01:40:30.000 For that whole period, the baby can literally only have breast milk.

01:40:34.000 We only recently invented formula because babies can't digest real food. 0.70

01:40:38.000 So that meant up until the mid-1900s, babies were literally eating nothing but mother's breast milk.

01:40:46.000 So when they say things like, oh, once the baby's born and now it's...

01:40:50.000 That's not true.

01:40:51.000 The mother...

01:40:52.000 The baby is still very much attached to that mother.

01:40:54.000 So I think...

01:40:56.000 I was just surprised that that's not a...

01:41:02.000 I was going to say it's almost like there's still one organism.

01:41:08.000 There's still a connected organism.

01:41:09.000 Even though they're separated by space, there's still kind of...

01:41:11.000 I mean, I'm still connected to my mother, you know?

01:41:13.000 This is why I said after the instructions from the doctor, I was immediately against surrogacy.

01:41:19.000 The doctor explained that mothers produce breast milk specifically formulated for the baby.

01:41:26.000 The baby's saliva...

01:41:28.000 Triggers a reaction in the breast, and the breast produces a specific balance of fats, proteins, and sugars. 1.00

01:41:33.000 And I went, what?

01:41:35.000 Because the doctor was explaining that sometimes you'll see different fat concentrations.

01:41:39.000 And then when we asked about it, she was like, well, for instance, premature babies.

01:41:43.000 There'll be a thick layer of fat in the breast milk after the mother pumps. 1.00

01:41:46.000 And I'm like, why is that?

01:41:47.000 Because the mother's body is reacting to the premature baby's saliva and producing a specific formula.

01:41:52.000 And I'm like, so then what is formula we give babies?

01:41:56.000 A baseline generic, we hope it works?

01:41:58.000 And I'm like, whoa!

01:42:00.000 So, the baby could be lacking fats and sickly, and your formula is not doing enough for it.

01:42:06.000 And if it was breastfeeding from the mother, it's getting the proper balance of nutrients. 0.99

01:42:10.000 You know, that's similar to if a husband and a wife were about to have a baby and they used a sperm donor.

01:42:15.000 You might think, like, is this still my child, even though that wasn't my sperm?

01:42:18.000 Is it still my child if it's not my wife's breast milk?

01:42:20.000 If it's some corporation's thing, is that still my...

01:42:25.000 Offspring. And then I started reading about this.

01:42:27.000 Milk siblings? 0.99

01:42:28.000 Do you know what that is?

01:42:29.000 Back in the day, because it is true, today we use formula because we're a very anti-social society.

01:42:35.000 Wet nurses. 0.98

01:42:36.000 I just want to see if you knew about wet nurses. 1.00

01:42:38.000 Women were typically always nursing because they're having lots of babies. 1.00

01:42:41.000 So if a mother was not producing enough, or a new mother wasn't producing at all, it was just colostrum, they would actually give the baby to another mother to provide milk for someone else's baby, and they would be called milk siblings.

01:42:55.000 And my mom said that when she would have to go do something, she had friends that had babies, they would just breastfeed each other's babies while the one was out. 0.99

01:43:02.000 Yeah. It was a normal thing for hundreds of thousands of years of humanity.

01:43:07.000 Today, we invented formula, and now we're very antisocial.

01:43:10.000 We don't talk to our neighbors.

01:43:11.000 This concept doesn't exist.

01:43:12.000 And formula does not give your baby everything you need.

01:43:15.000 Let me tell you guys.

01:43:18.000 To all the guys out there who've already been through there who are chuckling right now, I had to go to the store to buy formula, and I'm looking at the ingredients, and I was just like, absolutely not.

01:43:27.000 Corn syrup and soy?

01:43:30.000 Would you make your own?

01:43:31.000 Have you looked into making your own?

01:43:32.000 So we got the best.

01:43:34.000 This is why the European stuff is so popular.

01:43:37.000 The stuff that we got is the best you can get.

01:43:40.000 And we were trying to find not necessarily hypoallergenic stuff, but there's like sensitive formulas.

01:43:47.000 And then I look at it, it's like soybean oil, corn syrup, and our doctors were telling us, don't give that to your kid.

01:43:54.000 And we're like, what do we do?

01:43:56.000 That's crazy.

01:43:57.000 You know about Operation Stork Speed?

01:43:59.000 Yes. So there is, I can't remember the name of it, but there are things in baby formula that are forbidden in adult food, but baby formula has an exemption because the baby formula makers want to have it in there so badly and did some kind of lobbying.

01:44:14.000 So something that's not safe for adults.

01:44:16.000 Is now allowed in baby formula, and he's trying to fix all that.

01:44:21.000 Yeah, I just want to stress one more time, like, the best pro-life argument I heard, the best anti-surrogacy argument I've heard, is that mothers produce a specific formula for the babies, and that store-bought formula does not give the baby what it needs.

01:44:38.000 That's very, very important.

01:44:39.000 Not to mention, if someone is having a surrogate baby...

01:44:43.000 And I don't mean this for women who are unable to have children so they get a surrogate and the women can still lactate.

01:44:50.000 I'm talking about when it's like two guys going to another country, having the baby, and then bringing it back to their country, but will formula feed the baby.

01:44:57.000 That baby is not getting its nutrients.

01:44:59.000 It's babies can't eat food. 0.98

01:45:01.000 Anyway, we should read more chats.

01:45:03.000 What do we got over here with the Rumble Rants?

01:45:07.000 All right.

01:45:08.000 Concrete Hades says, why is the government of Canada allowed to buy ads?

01:45:12.000 Crying about tariffs in the U.S. I'll help end foreign influence as governor, Jesse for Ohio.

01:45:17.000 I got no problem with them buying ads.

01:45:19.000 Let them buy the ads and then we'll rag on them. 0.86

01:45:21.000 I don't know.

01:45:21.000 Just TV.

01:45:24.000 H. Charles Foster III says, Ian, the Dems have been the party of bloated bureaucracy and of burdening constitutional rights over 150 years.

01:45:31.000 Is that true?

01:45:32.000 Yeah. I mean, I guess that was the old Republican Party.

01:45:36.000 No. No.

01:45:36.000 Other way around.

01:45:37.000 The old Democratic Party became the Republicans.

01:45:39.000 Nope. What the hell am I thinking about?

01:45:41.000 Propaganda. Abraham Lincoln.

01:45:42.000 Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.

01:45:43.000 Yeah. And the Republicans still very much have very similar ethos.

01:45:47.000 Didn't they say the parties flipped at some point?

01:45:49.000 Never happened.

01:45:50.000 Not literally, but...

01:45:51.000 Nope. That's a story that's told that's disputed.

01:45:54.000 That's just not true.

01:45:55.000 Okay. Yep.

01:45:57.000 I like your comment.

01:45:58.000 Thank you.

01:45:58.000 The actual story I prefer is that...

01:46:00.000 Democrats in the civil rights era realized that their racist policy—the Democrats of the party of Jim Crow, segregation.

01:46:08.000 The Democrats were the pro-parties for slavery.

01:46:11.000 The Confederates were the Democrats. 0.90

01:46:13.000 After the end of the Civil War, the Democrats were the ones that maintained racism and all of these things.

01:46:19.000 Into the 1950s, the Democrats were the ones that were supporting segregation.

01:46:23.000 And the theory is, at some point, they realized, wait a minute, we are going about this the wrong way.

01:46:30.000 We can't be the party that's antagonistic.

01:46:33.000 It's not working.

01:46:34.000 We've continually been on the outside.

01:46:36.000 We've got to flip this around. 0.78

01:46:38.000 So the Democrats decided to adopt welfare policies and the destruction of the black family and Planned Parenthood and abortion as a means of destroying the black community and keeping them down. 0.54

01:46:49.000 That actually aligns much better with history as far as from what I've read.

01:46:53.000 This idea that at some point the Democrats just had an epiphany.

01:46:56.000 Well, we've been for segregation for 150 years.

01:46:59.000 Let's be against racism all of a sudden.

01:47:01.000 Makes literally no sense.

01:47:03.000 When you look at the results of what Democrat policy does to minority communities, you're kind of going, I think they don't like minorities.

01:47:12.000 I think they're just pretending.

01:47:14.000 The Black Panthers had, like, the government really went after weed in order to keep the Black Panthers and the hippies down because they were afraid of political revolution. 0.88

01:47:21.000 So it might be that they don't want an underclass revolution, so they've kind of separated and controlled them with bureaucracy. 0.72

01:47:28.000 Planned Parenthood.

01:47:29.000 And did you know that most Planned Parenthoods are in minority neighborhoods?

01:47:33.000 But Sanger, you know, they disavowed the founder on the Planned Parenthood website now because she talked about, you know...

01:47:41.000 Because it was eugenics. 0.94

01:47:43.000 Yeah, eugenics. 0.88

01:47:44.000 Alex Gray says, Alex Rosen is in jail.

01:47:47.000 He's charged with disturbing the peace and trespassing for exposing a pedophile at a steak and shake who employs and is protecting him.

01:47:53.000 Peto not arrested.

01:47:55.000 You know, I will say this, though.

01:47:56.000 You've got to be careful.

01:47:57.000 Because sooner or later, they're going to manipulate this.

01:48:01.000 They're going to catfish him, and they're going to set him up so that he gets arrested.

01:48:05.000 He's going to find some random guy.

01:48:07.000 He's going to have messages that he's pretty sure are from this guy, but this guy is not the person who said it was a catfish, and they're going to get him arrested.

01:48:14.000 Yeah, that's a good point.

01:48:15.000 You've got to be careful about that.

01:48:16.000 It could very well be like, I'll be sitting in a booth at the restaurant, and then they go there, and there's some guy sitting in a booth at a restaurant.

01:48:21.000 It's like, not the guy.

01:48:22.000 But they could set somebody up, too.

01:48:24.000 So they could take pictures of you.

01:48:26.000 And then, hey, here's me!

01:48:28.000 And then they show up, and you're sitting there like, bro, I know what you're talking about.

01:48:30.000 I didn't message anybody.

01:48:31.000 And then people can get arrested.

01:48:33.000 Like being swatted, but with...

01:48:35.000 There have been stories.

01:48:36.000 If you watch these videos, not Alex Rosen, because he's more meticulous, but there was a video recently where some guys were attacking a guy, and it was the wrong guy.

01:48:44.000 And then the cops came up, and then they were like, Matt, we're sorry, we got the wrong guy.

01:48:49.000 That's why vigilante justice is scary.

01:48:51.000 Scary stuff.

01:48:53.000 But I like Alex Rosen, you know.

01:48:55.000 All right.

01:48:56.000 The QuietPartPod says, Tim, as far as strength goes, the U.S. has already conquered the world.

01:49:00.000 Think about it.

01:49:01.000 We literally have bases everywhere, supplemented by our naval fleet, which is mobile.

01:49:05.000 Nobody can stand against us.

01:49:07.000 Indeed, that's correct.

01:49:08.000 I don't know.

01:49:08.000 Not everywhere.

01:49:09.000 Not literally everywhere, obviously.

01:49:11.000 Do we have a base in Beijing?

01:49:12.000 No. Well, the reality, though, is if the BRICS nations rose up all at once, we lose. 0.92

01:49:16.000 Well, maybe we don't lose, but the United States can't stand alone.

01:49:21.000 If we got a BRICS versus NATO...

01:49:24.000 It'll be interesting to see who wins.

01:49:25.000 The U.S. is very powerful in that regard.

01:49:27.000 But the U.S. is not stronger than all of its adversaries.

01:49:32.000 All right, let's see what we got in the old Superjet department.

01:49:37.000 Robert Romano says, tariffs are medicine.

01:49:39.000 Take your medicine.

01:49:40.000 Well, okay.

01:49:41.000 I like that.

01:49:44.000 What do we have here?

01:49:46.000 Zero Noose says, Tim, I saw Canadian government paid for advertising on I-75 that say tariffs are a tax on your groceries.

01:49:55.000 Well, they're lying.

01:49:56.000 Whatever. Yep.

01:49:58.000 Kelly Adams says, Tim, congrats on your baby girl.

01:50:00.000 I usually watch IRL the morning after, but tonight I'd like to join in the fun and announce the birth of my second son, Elijah.

01:50:06.000 Hey! God bless.

01:50:07.000 Congratulations. Phil, more go-to-the-gym posts.

01:50:11.000 Fair enough.

01:50:12.000 I've been moving, so we've been slacking.

01:50:15.000 Do you document your gym activity normally on Twitter?

01:50:17.000 Usually I just go and I'll post it.

01:50:19.000 Like, if I go to the gym, I'll just put a little quick video, like, go to the gym.

01:50:22.000 You know, just something to keep people motivated.

01:50:26.000 Matthew Morrell says, did anyone hear that we bombed Yemen again, like for the millionth time?

01:50:30.000 We've been bombing them for days.

01:50:32.000 Oh, man.

01:50:32.000 Yeah, the funny thing is, I think the whole story's a hoax.

01:50:36.000 Bombing Yemen? 0.95

01:50:37.000 No, no, no.

01:50:38.000 I think the signal story is intentional.

01:50:41.000 There's not going to be any resignations.

01:50:42.000 There was no hard...

01:50:44.000 So everyone's debating whether the information should have been classified or was classified.

01:50:48.000 It wasn't classified because they deemed it not classified.

01:50:51.000 They announced to Jeffrey Goldberg, a journalist, two hours before the strikes, the time in which F-18s would launch.

01:50:58.000 They did not describe specific weapons other than that they would be delivered, the vehicles, and they did not specify targets.

01:51:05.000 So there was nothing absolutely critical.

01:51:08.000 More importantly...

01:51:10.000 Governments looping journalists on this stuff all the time.

01:51:13.000 If the Trump administration had come out and said, when asked, like, why did Jeffrey Goldberg get on this?

01:51:18.000 If Tulsi Gabbard just chuckled, we were trying to loop a journalist in on our thought process for the strikes on Yemen, and he was invited to our chat.

01:51:28.000 We wanted to have an adversarial journalist access to the decision-making process.

01:51:34.000 We did not include confidential information.

01:51:36.000 We wanted them to see our process.

01:51:39.000 The confidential discussion of sources, targets, and otherwise was held in a skiff.

01:51:43.000 There'd be no story whatsoever.

01:51:45.000 Did they end up following through with the plans from the chat?

01:51:48.000 But to clarify, nothing was specified.

01:51:52.000 Because it just said the target will be hit.

01:51:55.000 One thing you could do if you were like, we talked about this a little bit on The Green Show, if you were about to plan a military operation, say we're going to invade from the east.

01:52:02.000 You go and you get a journalist and you tell them, we'll be invading from the west.

01:52:06.000 And then they go out and they spill the beans and tell the world fake information that you intended the world, because you don't want your enemy to know where you're coming.

01:52:14.000 So you want the journalist to be confused.

01:52:15.000 Actually, they don't do that.

01:52:17.000 The military often invites journalists to ride along with them on operations.

01:52:21.000 That's why I'm like, this is not a story at all.

01:52:23.000 The only story is that Jeffrey Goldberg's an adversarial journalist.

01:52:26.000 So I think it's possible that they accidentally added him, but that seems so weird.

01:52:30.000 Then you look at what was actually said in these messages, and it's exactly the message that Trump wanted to get out.

01:52:36.000 We're reluctant to strike the Houthis. 0.94

01:52:39.000 We don't want to.

01:52:41.000 Our trade doesn't work there.

01:52:42.000 Egypt and Europe must remunerate. 0.97

01:52:44.000 We're the only ones who can do it.

01:52:46.000 We have no choice.

01:52:47.000 I'm like, what?

01:52:48.000 That's the greatest messaging on a missile strike I've ever heard from any administration in my life.

01:52:53.000 When Obama was blowing up kids, they just said, well, they're military-aged males, so they're enemy combatants.

01:52:58.000 And we were like, what?

01:52:59.000 Or when Luke asked them about killing Anwar al-Awlaki and Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, and it was, who was it?

01:53:05.000 It was the Obama administration guy who said he should have had a better father.

01:53:08.000 And the narrative is J.D. Vance saying, we're making a mistake here, guys.

01:53:13.000 We shouldn't do this.

01:53:14.000 And people are praising the Trump administration.

01:53:16.000 Let me ask you this, because I didn't read all the messages, but I heard a whole bunch of them read, and all of them were saying they agree it doesn't have to be done now, but then they went ahead and did it.

01:53:26.000 No, only a couple.

01:53:27.000 Okay. A couple people were saying we could wait a month, and then I think Hegseth was saying we are the only ones who can do this.

01:53:34.000 We need to move now, but the president has final say.

01:53:37.000 The only thing questionable about it was that it said F-18s will launch.

01:53:43.000 And it named the vehicles.

01:53:44.000 It didn't name specific weapons or targets.

01:53:47.000 So, I don't buy it.

01:53:51.000 I do.

01:53:52.000 Well, I don't know what it is exactly, but I think there was malfeasance.

01:53:55.000 Someone screwed up and should be fired.

01:53:57.000 How do you accidentally do that?

01:54:00.000 Or maybe someone intentionally did it.

01:54:02.000 Someone intentionally sabotaged.

01:54:04.000 Which is like, not just firing, that's prosecution if they intentionally did it.

01:54:08.000 No firing.

01:54:09.000 No one gets fired.

01:54:10.000 No one loses their job.

01:54:12.000 The Biden administration got 13 Marines killed and there was no repercussions for it.

01:54:19.000 Anyone in any position?

01:54:21.000 I don't even care.

01:54:23.000 The Republicans do not give anything. 0.99

01:54:25.000 I want to throw that talking point in the garbage. 0.64

01:54:27.000 We don't need an if-this-then-that.

01:54:30.000 Biden did a bad thing, therefore excuse us here.

01:54:32.000 No, literally nothing happened.

01:54:34.000 Richard Engel was on the ground in Syria during military operations.

01:54:37.000 He knows exactly where they're going, when they're going there, a day in advance.

01:54:41.000 He brought his iPhone with him to Syria.

01:54:43.000 And I actually asked him this.

01:54:45.000 This is NBC News, a foreign correspondent.

01:54:48.000 Why would you bring your personal device into Syria?

01:54:51.000 You know the Assad regime probably scanned and copied all of that information.

01:54:54.000 And he was shocked.

01:54:55.000 He didn't understand.

01:54:56.000 So when they say two hours before a journalist had accessed the information, I say, what else is new?

01:55:00.000 They often loop in journalists all the time.

01:55:03.000 If the argument is it was an accidental ad and it could have been some random person.

01:55:10.000 That's an argument.

01:55:11.000 If you want to make an argument, they shouldn't be conducting these conversations on Signal, which delete the messages.

01:55:16.000 That I completely agree with.

01:55:17.000 These should be in the public record that we should be able to go back to when we subpoena at a certain point in time.

01:55:22.000 Disappearing messages are bad for government.

01:55:23.000 But the idea that a journalist got access to information, I'm like, I've reported on stories where the government's given me heads up.

01:55:29.000 I just want to know who in that group had the Trump-hating...

01:55:38.000 I would be concerned if I were Trump that there are people...

01:55:45.000 He's notorious for having people that were turncoats in the first term working against him while pretending to work for him.

01:55:52.000 I'm sure there is still...

01:55:54.000 I have got probably 50 adversarial journalists in my phone.

01:55:58.000 You're not Donald Trump or a political figure that's been fighting that?

01:56:02.000 That was really...

01:56:04.000 The downfall of a lot of initiatives he tried to make the first term.

01:56:08.000 If the argument is, at this point, we realize the pitfalls of being in communication with these guys, maybe we should remove them from these work phones.

01:56:15.000 Fine. But I am not surprised to hear that Mike Waltz had the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic in his phone.

01:56:22.000 Trump gives comments to these news organizations all the time.

01:56:24.000 I think, I cannot, I'm sorry, I'm hearing this from almost nobody, but I really do think Trump did it on purpose.

01:56:31.000 Maybe, I don't know.

01:56:33.000 You had this story about a judge and Donald Trump and blocking Trendy Aragua and the deportations.

01:56:39.000 Leftists are fundraising off it like crazy.

01:56:41.000 They're launching lawsuits.

01:56:42.000 All of a sudden, a nothing burger story pops up and it's the apocalypse for the left.

01:56:46.000 People should be fired.

01:56:48.000 Democrats argue this all the time and did during his first term.

01:56:52.000 Trump intentionally makes scandals to distract from his actual operations.

01:56:56.000 The Houthi strikes was last week.

01:56:59.000 And now the only thing the media can do is talk about it.

01:57:02.000 There's nothing in the messages, literally nothing, except for positive pro-Trump messaging.

01:57:08.000 The Atlantic now published all of Donald Trump, all the messaging from Trump's cabinet and the security personnel that make him look good.

01:57:15.000 He's being praised by Trump supporters who were before attacking him for bombing the Houthis.

01:57:20.000 When Donald Trump bombed Yemen, everybody started sharing the video of my interview with him where I said, why are they bombing Yemen?

01:57:27.000 And he said, we shouldn't be doing that.

01:57:30.000 Now, all of a sudden, everyone's saying Trump did a good job.

01:57:32.000 Look at the messaging.

01:57:33.000 J.D. Vance is a patriot.

01:57:34.000 He's saying we shouldn't be doing this.

01:57:36.000 They're expecting remuneration.

01:57:37.000 It's making Trump look good.

01:57:39.000 You look at these messages.

01:57:41.000 Who did it get leaked to?

01:57:42.000 An adversarial journalist they knew would publish it, knew would make it a big story.

01:57:46.000 Why are they having these conversations?

01:57:48.000 Why does it sound so canned?

01:57:50.000 Why is there no shorthand in text messages?

01:57:53.000 Come on, everybody who texts and you're in a group text knows that there's a lot of shorthand.

01:57:57.000 Now, granted, there were some emojis, but this read like it was scripted.

01:58:01.000 Like they were sitting there laughing, like, you think Jeffrey Goldberg's buying it?

01:58:04.000 And then a week after the strike...

01:58:06.000 They made Trump the good guy on the Yemen strike story. 0.96

01:58:09.000 But who's the audience?

01:58:10.000 Because I would argue if you walked around on the streets, almost nobody you ask will know who the Houthis are or anything.

01:58:17.000 And they say that in the messages.

01:58:18.000 They say literally, why are we going to strike them?

01:58:21.000 It's a mistake.

01:58:22.000 Most Americans don't even know who the Houthis are.

01:58:24.000 Then what happens?

01:58:25.000 The Atlantic publishes a story explaining exactly what Trump wanted explained.

01:58:31.000 Maybe not Trump, but his team.

01:58:33.000 It sounds to me like this was manufactured.

01:58:35.000 Vance is smart enough to do that.

01:58:38.000 Look at it this way. 0.88

01:58:39.000 Trump goes, we're going to strike the Houthis. 0.84

01:58:41.000 J.D. Vance says, Mr. President, with all due respect, this goes against your messaging.

01:58:44.000 This is in private.

01:58:45.000 We do this, your base will be mad at you.

01:58:47.000 It's okay, what do we do?

01:58:49.000 We can put out a statement.

01:58:50.000 We can try and explain why we got to do it.

01:58:52.000 Nobody will run that.

01:58:54.000 If we make a statement, it's going to get picked up by the right-wing press and they're going to attack the president and say, don't do it.

01:58:59.000 It's wrong.

01:59:01.000 We have to do it, and we have to get the story out.

01:59:03.000 Here's one idea.

01:59:05.000 Let's make a phone, a group text, loop in a journalist so that he publishes our messaging the way we want it, and then we'll see how that story goes.

01:59:15.000 They give them the information right before the strike happens, which Trump could have put out in a press release.

01:59:21.000 Strikes have commenced.

01:59:22.000 This guy waits a little while, publishes a story.

01:59:24.000 It's national news for a week.

01:59:27.000 Instead of talking about Trendy Aragua, instead of talking about the Mahmoud Khalil and all these other people, where Democrats use the PR to fundraise, you end up with them talking about a nothing burger text message to a journalist.

01:59:39.000 Where I will stress, if the response from Tulsi Gabbard and Pete Hegseth was right at the gate, what do you mean we invited Jeffrey Goldberg to our chat?

01:59:48.000 Well, he's saying you accidentally looped him in.

01:59:50.000 What? No, we intentionally looped him in.

01:59:52.000 I'm sorry, I don't quite understand.

01:59:54.000 We let a journalist into our chat as we were discussing our plans for Yemen.

01:59:58.000 We routinely disclose information to journalists when it's not classified. 1.00

02:00:02.000 Jeffrey Goldberg would look like a moron. 0.98

02:00:04.000 Instead, they went, whoopsie-daisy, and now it's a national story for a week. 1.00

02:00:08.000 Maybe. What'll bolster that is if there is, and this is probably the case, because it doesn't look like anybody's going to be...

02:00:15.000 You know, punished for it.

02:00:16.000 If nobody's punished for it, if they don't say we got to the bottom of who added it and here's who did it and here's who's fired, then that bolstered.

02:00:22.000 They already said it.

02:00:23.000 No one should get fired.

02:00:24.000 But they already said it.

02:00:25.000 Trump already said no one will be fired.

02:00:27.000 We're done.

02:00:28.000 Story's over.

02:00:29.000 And I'm like, this is fake. 1.00

02:00:30.000 And the left eats it up because they want the story of Trump to be a moron. 1.00

02:00:35.000 Look, this is PR 101. 1.00

02:00:37.000 This is like entry-level public relations.

02:00:40.000 Do you guys remember Tucker Max?

02:00:42.000 Yep. Tucker Max.

02:00:45.000 Bought a billboard for his book, and then he was working with Ryan Holiday.

02:00:50.000 And the story goes, I don't know if exactly all the credit goes to Ryan Holiday for this, because I think someone, there was an argument over it, but Tucker Max had a book.

02:00:56.000 I think it was Ryan Holiday.

02:00:58.000 They defamed their own billboard.

02:01:01.000 Then, the next morning, they called a radio station and said, yo, someone graffitied up this billboard.

02:01:06.000 They organized their own protests.

02:01:09.000 That way the news would report protests had started.

02:01:12.000 It's like Kevin Smith.

02:01:13.000 Went outside during the filming of Dogma and gave interviews at the protests of his own film.

02:01:19.000 This is really low-tier basic PR manipulation stuff.

02:01:23.000 Hey, Lupin, who's a journalist we hate?

02:01:26.000 Goldberg, he'll do it.

02:01:27.000 Write down exactly what the message needs to be.

02:01:30.000 He'll publish it.

02:01:31.000 No one's going to get fired.

02:01:32.000 The Democrats are saying Hegseth should be fired.

02:01:35.000 He's not even the one who started the group chat.

02:01:36.000 It wouldn't be him.

02:01:37.000 That would make sense.

02:01:37.000 If anybody got fired, it would be whoever added the journalist.

02:01:40.000 And that's only if it was a mistake.

02:01:41.000 It might have been an intern.

02:01:44.000 In which case, there is the scapegoat.

02:01:47.000 Trump's message is espoused by the Atlantic to everybody.

02:01:50.000 They talk about it for a week.

02:01:51.000 Everybody on the right sees J.D. Vance saying, we can't do this.

02:01:54.000 We're reluctant.

02:01:55.000 Pete Hexas saying, we have no choice.

02:01:57.000 Then reminding the American people, don't worry, Egypt and Europe must remunerate on this. 0.75

02:02:01.000 I'm like, that is Donald Trump giving a speech at a rally.

02:02:05.000 All of his talking points.

02:02:07.000 The talking points before was Trump should not bomb Yemen.

02:02:10.000 Now it's, look at this deep, thoughtful communication.

02:02:13.000 The statement from the spokesperson was hilarious.

02:02:15.000 This appears to be a genuine communication of deep and thoughtful communications on a military strike or something like that.

02:02:22.000 Anyway, that's just my thoughts.

02:02:24.000 I don't know.

02:02:25.000 Maybe I'm crazy.

02:03:15.000 I give ION awards for independent off-narrative reporting to professionals and at two colleges because in my industry, and I judge the Emmys every year, A lot of times what wins is not the original good kind of reporting that I think we need to be encouraging.

02:03:36.000 What is it that Follow the Science is about?

02:03:38.000 It's about how, sort of explaining behind the scenes with anecdotes and documentation and citations, how we have had this explosion of chronic health disorders for 20 years that we all recognize that our doctors pretend not to notice.

02:03:53.000 Or don't notice, either one's equally as bad, but for the opportunity that they have to try to treat it with expensive treatments.

02:03:59.000 But there's a big story behind it.
