better time and let me tell you today is going to be special would you like to see me do magic today I'm going to do magic today I'm going to cure thousands of people of mental illness literally and if you'd like to see that and all the amazing things all you need is a CER micro glass a tanker gel orstein a canteen Jugger flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now for the unparallel pleasure the dope mean h of the day think makes everything better it's called a simultaneous siping happens now go yes I am indeed going to solve mental illness for probably thousands of you really truly this is not a joke and it'll happen in just a few minutes in next five minutes some of you are going to have the biggest problem of your life solved not all of you but some of you it'll be kind of exciting wait for that well Peter Zan tells us that the uh that uh American companies can now petition the government to apply for us protective tariffs if China says they have to transfer their technology so you know if when American companies or foreign companies work with China China often or maybe always says that they have to transfer their technology to them and now if they demand that apparently us companies have an option they can they can apply to the government to put a tariff on China that's actually a pretty good idea I I mean I I don't see it in the news I only see people Zan saying it but he's probably right I mean I I doubt he'd make it up so I'm going to say that uh that's a very trumpian that feels like a trump-like policy Trump never had that policy as far as I know uh if he had I would have said it was good so I'm going to say it's good uh even though it's not Trump there is a study that suggests that uh driving uh if you're texting and driving you're probably a psychopath now did you really need a study to know that that if somebody is operating a dangerous motor vehicle 80 mil an hour and they're looking at their phone do you need to do a scientific study to find out if there's something wrong with that person's priorities maybe their empathy well I think it's a little more complicated than being Psychopaths I think some people just have a different um relationship with risk isn't that fair to say how how do you know you're measuring Psychopaths who don't care if they get you know kill you in a crash versus somebody who just has a high tolerance or risk and they think they're good at texting and driving at the same time but it feels it looks the same but I will tell you that anybody who makes a phone call in Starbucks is definitely a psychopath and that what I don't understand I know that they think oh it's a public place but you look around the public place and you see all these people on laptops clearly trying to concentrate how do you not know that making a loud long cell phone call in that environment makes everybody want to stab you how do you not know that you'd have to be a psychopath all right um I think think I'm just going to go ahead and do it I'm going to cure a bunch of you so I tried a uh a reframe with my audience uh yesterday and I think the other day as well in which if you get ruminating and you're thinking too much in your head that you simply use two words get out and you treat yourself like you have two lives so here's the reframe and by the way I checked this morning and my Audience by an overwhelming number of comments said they tried this and it completely helped their mental health instantly let me say it again just I don't know how many people dozens dozens of people this morning just before I went live here I do a pre-show with with my uh subscribers and I asked them if they tried the technique and I'll describe it again but they said they did and just dozens of people said it instantly helped them M so here's the technique you know how when you're in your head you're living in an imaginary world you know you're thinking about what happened which doesn't exist the past and you're thinking about what might happen which doesn't exist the future so you actually when you're in your head you're living in a world that doesn't exist but there's an external world where you're touching things and doing things and doing chores and exercising and working and doing things the external world is real so what I found is that these two words get out will immediately take you out of your internal World your imaginary world and put you into the real one and you just remind yourself no get out of the imaginary world get into the real one get out get out and those two words will actually become a trigger or a key that helps you do the thing that you want it to do so you associate words with actions especially CS of your own body and those will become sticky it doesn't take long you just have to say something and associated with a feeling or a situation gets sticky really fast so I want you all to try this and you're going to be amazed the next time you're too much in your head and you got recurring thoughts or whatever just say out loud get out get out and you're not talking just about getting out of your head you're talking about getting out of the house just stand up and walk outside if it's cold stand up and walk around the house but the get out is a reminder that you are two people you're not one person there's one of you that lives in the completely imaginary world of your mind and the other one lives in the real world but the only one that has a problem is the imaginary one so you can starve the imaginary one of its energy but just ain't get out I I choose to walk through this doorway and now I'm in the real world I guarantee ba based on the comments I got back this morning I guarantee that a healthy percentage you just just solved one of the biggest problems in your whole life now that ladies and gentlemen is why I wake up in the morning I remind you I don't really need to work but this is why I do it because it has some value and I find that waking up without the at least the potential to add something to the world uh sort of meaningless and stupid so I like to make sure I've got at least one thing going on at all times that could make a difference and we'll see if that makes a difference I guarantee that'll work for some percentage of you guarantee it because the the overwhelming response from the people who tried it is just too strong all right that is your gift for the day and uh I'll ask you tomorrow how many of you tried it and even by tomorrow watch the comments it'll be a wall of comments who said oh my God I tried that and it worked the greatest reframe ever maybe there's a technology called shot spotter that allows the police to know where a gunshot has been fired in their city and and wokeness is reporting on the xplatform that Senator Warren and Senator Mary and representative Ayan Presley they're trying to get rid of shot spotting in Boston why why would you want to get rid of a technology that helps you know where there's some violence with guns can you guess take a guess why would you want to get rid of it well it turns out that they put most of the shot spotters the technology in black neighborhoods and they're saying that's racist so get rid of them do you know why they put them in the black neighborhoods uh it wasn't because they're black that they put him in the the high crime neighborhoods now what exactly do Warren mky and Presley think they're going to to get out of this that's good for the people of Boston were the people in Boston clamoring for less or slower police response to shootings was somebody asking for that it's like hey hey there was a shooting in my neighborhood and the police were here in seconds that's pretty racist aren't they supposed to be there quickly if there's like a crime I don't understand any part of the story is there something missing is it possible the story was reported with like important context left out or is it just as stupid as it looks I'm going to go with I think it's just as stupid as it looks I think so how could everything be racist so I was seeing a clip uh that Tucker Carlson was talking to uh quarterback Rogers and tuu was saying that during the Occupy Wall Street years when there were big protests about all the rich people in Wall Street that it was just that same time when that was at its peak that the New York Times suddenly had a substantial increase in references to racism and racist and racism and white supremacy and then suddenly The Narrative changed and it was no longer about hey those are rich people it was all about hey those white people that's right the allegation is this and and I've always said this by the way I've told you that I've been the victim of extreme racism in my career extreme I lost my job at a bank for being a white guy I lost my job at the phone company for being a white guy my TV show was uh basically cancelled because I wasn't African-American and they were going to to do a a block on UPN of just black programming so I've been super super discriminated against but I but I sometimes forget to tell you this all of the Discrimination was at the hands of white men and white women I've never been discriminated against as far as I know by a black person like ever I can't think of any case where that's ever happened how about an Asian-American discriminate against me can't think of a time about a Hispanic American discriminating against me anytime anytime in my life can't think of one anybody who is half black discriminated against me ever not once I mean I can't think of any time but how many times have rich white people discriminated against me well a lot a lot and let me tell you rich white people are the worst I think I can say that right because I'm a right rich white guy I I can criticize my own people I believe that's fair I believe criticizing my own people is fair so sometimes people misunderstand me when they say that I'm a victim of extreme racial discrimination and gender it's it's all from white men and a little bit from women but mostly mostly it's white men who do you think canceled me uh from newspapers do you think there were a lot of uh uh black owners of newspapers there might be some but I'm I'm not even aware of any actually so no white people white people cancelled me it's always white people and the occupy Wall Street thing just sort of brings that up it's like wait a minute there was all this pressure against rich white people and then suddenly there's all this you know CRT n SG and Dei and it's it's all we're talking about it sounds a lot like the rich white people threw in a little diversion doesn't it that's what it feels like don't know what's true but that's what it feels like uh just before I got on I saw there was a huge Improvement in the full self-driving feature on the Teslas so something that'll make it five to 10 times more uh let's see more self-driving meaning that uh far fewer human interactions and at the same time um apparently the California Air Resource Board the carb never even heard of them uh have some kind of deal where they're going to raise my California gas prices 50 cents next year and every year after in order to reduce emissions they're actually going to just price me out of gas now this is in addition to the existing gas TX so it's not like just a gas tack it's it's raising the gas T yeah 50 cents a gallon right 5050 cents a gallon and that's real that apparently that's going to actually happen now at the same time I was trying to decide between a nice American Bronco gas vehicle mostly because I like their look and they seem to be you know they'd have utility um or a Tesla now I'm not sold on electric cars just cuz I don't have a charger in my house but if I put one in I suppose it wouldn't be the biggest deal because I don't take long tricks trips anyway usually so I think that if California is going to try to price me on a gas unless I'm going to move I might want to go for the Tesla but then somebody said that the insurance is more for the electric cars is that true is Insurance more for a Tesla than a similarly priced vehicle I've never heard that before any confirm that because I I don't know if anybody's done the full cost of ownership because I always thought the electric was a lower full cost of ownership for the car dealer um there's a separate question about Recycling and all that stuff I see a no I see a not really I see a yes I see Nos and yeses I see doubted right so that might be fake news well I am seeing yeses though I'm seeing yeses and NOS Well it can't be that big of a difference then some people saying maybe a little but nothing important 10% more somebody says all right we don't know exactly we're a little mixed on our fact checking here but it doesn't look like it's you know double or anything so I guess so at the moment given that uh I did learn that a bicycle would fit in the back of a Tesla an ebike and it also has a bike rack I'm leaning pretty heavily toward the full self-driving Tesla because I think I might actually use my vehicle more if it drove itself here's the thing I don't like about long drives I don't like that it forces me to think their thoughts like the car forces me to think about you know the road and everything and I don't like think about something I'm forced to think about for a long time but if I could just sit there and I don't know do you pay attention or do you stop paying attention to the road until it tells you to I don't know would it feel different mentally I guess I'll have to experience it to know but anyway I'm leaning toward the Tesla over the gas car at the moment speaking of Elon Musk he's uh reiterated that the terms CIS and consist gender are considered slurs and you'll get a warning on X if you keep it up um now I think I played this just right and what I mean by that is uh for how many years have we' been hearing this term CIS and cisgender for I don't know maybe eight years or something when did it pop into existence but it's been years now right and the first time I heard it I thought huh I don't know what that even means and then also the second time I heard it and and the thousandth time I heard it every time I said you know I should probably Google that I should go figure out what that means because it kept popping up and I didn't know what it meant and I managed to ride that all the way until it was banned now I don't need to know what it means I played it just right I I refused to know what it was and that it didn't matter because it turned into some kind of an insult and you're not supposed to say it anyway so well played Scott well played by ignoring it um I had a philosophy teacher in college who used to who taught the inbox trick which by the way has influenced so much in my life and the inbox trick goes like this if somebody puts something in your inbox let's say something they want you to deal with you leave it there for two weeks that was that was his method if somebody asks you to do something you leave it you you age it for two weeks and and this was his theory he said if it's important they'll take care of it themselves like if you're not dealing with it they'll find some other way to get it done because it's important if after two weeks they're not clamoring for it it wasn't important in the first place now I spend so much time thinking about that about whether wait does that really work I mean it doesn't feel like that makes sense but when you try it it does seem to work I can't tell you how many times somebody has asked me to do something urgent and I just threw it in the mental inbox I'm like nope and then a week later they say never mind never mind I figured out a way to do it all right it's a great trick all all right uh there's a new study that says there's a compound in cannabis that might uh be protective against Alzheimer's and Parkinson's so it doesn't say that you could get this benefit by smoking it it's a compound in it but I'm going to guess that you probably do because I'm trying to figure out why the older I get the smarter I am it's probably the protective benefits of the Cannabis compounds not only do I not have Alzheimer's but I think my IQ is at least doubled wait if I think that probably means I do have dementia damn it there's no way out of this get out get out all right I'm back all right uh here's my theme for the rest of the show it's called are we still a republic are we still a republic I'll see if I can make this theme work first story uh nearly 40,000 ballots in Nevada were counted after election day 40,000 now that would be illegal those would should not be counted 40,000 but the question you ask is well it's just 40,000 right out of the whole state how much did uh Biden win a Nevada by 34,000 there were 40,000 illegal votes that mostly went to Biden and he only won by that amount H huh that's weird that's weird now on one hand you could certainly understand why those votes were counted because if they were real votes if they were real votes even if technically they shouldn't have been counted it doesn't feel that bad does it if you think to yourself well they intended to vote maybe the mail got delayed you know you don't have a result yet why not at least you can enfranchise your voters and make sure their vote counted on the other hand does anybody believe that this was totally legit that just coincidentally the exact amount of votes came in after the date does anybody think that's legitimate it might be can't rule it out but yeah so you you're asking the right question what about the postmark I think there are two standards but I need a fact check on this depending on the state I think that the postmark would matter or the when you received it matter I think it I think it depends on the state but I need to I need a fact check on that anyway this is the claim that the votes came in after the fact should not have been counted but they were and may have changed the result for at least one state well the Rasmus and Poland company asked this question directly um to find out if we're still a republic uh and here's their lead and I'll just tell you what they said after the Constitutional Convention in 1787 when Ben Franklin was asked what kind of government the convention had created he said and I quote and by the way I always think these um historical quotes are just made up I I never think these are like the real quote but allegedly Ben Franklin said a republic if you can keep it well rasmon asked the public um are we still a republic and did we keep it only 39% of likely us voters believe America has done a good job of keeping the Republic 39% 47% think the Republic the founders created has already fallen 14% are not so sure 47% think the Republic has already fallen 47% um but here's the question I'm going to test you on for those of you who are uh new to this new to my live streams you're going to be amazed watch this watch how they can answer the question before I ask it go just go show off go on show show your stuff there we go the answers are coming in I haven't even asked the question yet but watch this look and and you and you're all right you're all correct okay here's a question that you've already answered without even knowing the answer without even knowing the question uh what percentage of Voters according to rasmon believe the federal government today has the consent of the Govern 26% 26% believe the government is acting with the consent of the government and you knew the answer before I asked the question because you're the smartest audience in the history of the entire Republic which doesn't exist according to most people all right how many of you saw a uh there was a little news story because KL Harris used the F-word when talking to a bunch of I think they were uh some kind of Asian-American women's group I think and uh she said that you know sometimes if the door is closed you've got to quote kick the effing door down except she used the whole word now so the story was hey she used an F-word now can we all agree that nobody cares about that right nobody cares that a politician swears I kind of like it actually I have to admit I like it if they don't do it all the time and they use it for those moments when they really need to you know accentuate a point I think Trump uses cursing better than any politician of all time because he doesn't overuse it he'll just throw in a you know an sww or mostly an sww I think he doesn't use the FW it's well done but I think uh I think you missed the headline on this story I I want you to go back if you saw the clip or if you haven't seen it go look at it I want you to see if you maybe missed the the top line of what the story should have been she was drunk really obviously drunk now it could have been some other inebriation but she was very inebriated now how is that not the story the story is she used an f- word no how about the story is this is the way she did it and you should kick theable W down how do you ignore that part no the story wasn't about her choice of words it was it was about a choice of drinks that should have been the story just think about the fact that you got Joe Biden shuffling around his pants halfway to the helicopter where it looks like it and that the number two person is appearing drunk in public now I I'm sorry I'm going to stop saying maybe drunk can we stop saying maybe that was drunk as all right you can't look at that and think she was sober you can't no I I I challenge you I challenge you to look at that and say oh yeah that's sober how is that not the story and and do you not see it are there people who can't recognize you can't recognize a drunk in public that's about the easiest thing you can spot but because you used the f word it it diverted everybody like a magic trick it's like oh the real magic trick is she used that word wow all right um CNN's Daniel Dale the fact Checker is back and he came to fact check Donald Trump's speech huh I feel like he's always on vacation when Trump gives or when Biden says something where where's uh Daniel Dale fact checking Biden you they they only pull them out when Trump gives a rally now here's the funny part remember I told you that you don't understand the news unless you know the players right if you don't know what the players have done or who they're connected to you're kind of Flying Blind everything is about who knows who and who did what and who's connected to what so even this story so if you just turned on the TV you would see a fact Checker uh talking to a couple of C and hosts and doing a bunch of fact checks on on Trump and if that's all you knew you'd say wow that Trump sure tells a lot of Whoppers and that would be your impression now let me tell you a little bit about the players one of the hosts Abby Phillip is a promoter of the fine people hoax she believe she believes and she has promoted on the air that Trump said the neo-nazis were fine people do you ever remember Daniel Dale factchecking that I don't think so I don't believe I've ever seen him take a run at that so if you didn't know that the fact Checker who seems to be absent when Biden does anything uh if he didn't know he was talking to a purveyor of the fine people hoax it looks really different doesn't it but once you know he's talking to a famous I assume lying because I don't think anybody's dum enough to know that that was true um anybody in the news business um it changes everything it's like oh a famous hoaxer who has a job as a News host anyway here's something interesting RFK Jr said that um he says he doesn't want president Trump to have a second chance in office in part because he says Trump was rolled by his bureaucrats uh to impose lockdowns and shut down businesses uh policies that made things worse all right so RFK Jr let's let's pull some things together so RFK JR says the president Trump is too influenced by experts is that a problem is it what if it gone the other way I I'm trying to imagine a world in which uh mean old orange man Trump overruled the entire scientific consensus of the time how was that going to go and and I ask you if we had a president RFK Jr and the entire scientific Community said you should do X but RFK Jr said no do y would you be comfortable with that now I get that he was right about things you and and that the experts were wrong we all get that I'm not saying that if you take one approach versus the other you'll always get the right answer no but I don't think there was a path where Trump could ignore the experts during the pandemic that that's completely re uh revisionary history if you put yourself in the context of the time he couldn't ignore the experts even if he thought fouchi was he couldn't really ignore him because fouchi was agreeing with the other experts it wasn't really about fouchi and by the way um I will tell you from my I won't call it my own reporting but you know everybody has sources I'm pretty sure that Trump thought fouchy was but the entire scientific Community was sort of on the same sish you know except for the few notable people who were dissidents and got it right so how in the world are you supposed to expect him to ignore experts the next time would you be comfortable with that now if next time looked exactly like the co thing then yes right if there was a mysterious new virus yes yes I would expect Trump to know it's a second trick but what if it's a brand new situation you know let's say there's a volcano and all the experts say you better wear a mask for 2 weeks do you want Trump to say you don't need a mask I don't no I I kind of want to hear what the experts say because I don't think we're at the point where you can ignore them or that you want a non-expert to overrule them right in front of you how is that better but here's the interesting part how can it be true that Trump is a uh a dictator and he has authoritative authoritarian um instincts when at the same time he's being criticized for listening to The Experts you have to pick one right he's either the person who ignores everybody and does what he wants or he's the person who takes expert advice including generals including military people doesn't mean he agrees with them all the time I get that but no you don't want him ignoring experts so you have to decide so you've got somebody who's running as a Democrat is saying that Trump is not dictatorial enough and he's letting experts influence him at the same time another Democrat now I realize RFK Jr is not running in the Democrat Party but he's Democrat and so the other Democrat Biden is saying he's a dictator and he's not going to listen to The Experts so it's all made up neither neither of those uh images ring true let me tell you what I think Trump is I think he's a practical person I think he looks at every situation new he says all right what works in this situation does following the experts make sense sometimes yes sometimes no and I think he's done a good job of calling out when to ignore them because he has a few times and I think gotten it right a few times so I don't know it's tough to criticize him for bending to The Experts because we're looking at it with u that 20120 hindsight yes if Trump knew today everything he knew then he should have chosen differently but he didn't and how could he it it's ridiculous to imagine that he could have known then what we know now that's that's just bad thinking that's bad analysis all right um so we're learning that uh Democrat Congressman Dan Goldman apparently met a number of times with Michael Cohen the big star witness in the stormy trial and uh he met to prepare him for the trial now you say to yourself huh that certainly would support Trump's theory that it's a organized Democrat plot and it's not just the legal system doing its thing but rather it's the Democrats coordinating with the Department of Justice in this case the store witness so it looks exactly like the fix was in but it gets better it turns out um the judge the judge's daughter uh uh so Dan Goldman is a client of the judge's daughter your your consulting firm so the judge's daughter has a consulting firm that consults Dan Goldman let's see if you just hold this in your head the judge's daughter is paying a rep a democrat congress person who's a Biden person who is then advising the key witness in the trial that that same judge is in had to you know basically end Trump now is this a case of it's exactly what it looks like I love this trial I didn't think I was going to love it so much but the thing is it's making it so clear what's going on even if you're a Democrat you see it by now don't you if you're not just batshit crazy you see it right you see that all the legal cases were bogus all of them you can see it really clearly with a stormy case but it's not a coincidence that the other ones are delayed because there's some real problems with the other ones real problems so I feel like this is going to be the Rosetta Stone for at least normal Democrats normal meaning somebody who's just you know not crazy basically uh I think that they're looking at this I think the freed zakaras on CNN are looking at it and saying flat out this is lawfare this is a political prosecution how in the world how in the world do Democrats win when CNN says they're doing a political prosecution and only fewer than uh like half the people think that the country is not even a republic anymore how in the world does Biden win without cheating all right uh number of supporters well I think let's talk about Cohen um I saw MSNBC saying he's doing a great job I was watching Morning Joe just melt down today arguing with because there's another there's a New York Times Sienna poll that says uh Trump's up by 11 somewhere I think Nevada and and they were just they were just melting down Morning Joe that is mental illness right because you know I feel like you know if I'm watching the conservative news and I see somebody say something that to me is you know clearly more propaganda you know just team play it's being a little unfair they never look crazy the the people on the right the Republicans they always look like they know exactly what they're doing I'll use Shan Hannity as my example does does Shan Hannity ever look like he's insane no if you think he's saying something that's not true or leaving out some context looks like he's doing it intentionally now you can have your opinion about that but it doesn't look crazy it just looks like he's pushing a version of things that his audience wants to hear nothing crazy about it so it looks completely different over on the other side when you watch MSNBC I I only see mental illness now I by the way I don't see that in CNN so it's not just about you know whether they like or don't like Trump when I watch CNN I look at people who look to me like they know what they're doing in other words I I get the Shan Hannity effect from CNN I think I can't read your mind but I'm looking at your eyes and your mannerisms it doesn't look crazy it just looks like you're pushing a view of things that's different than the other view of things somebody else is pushing but on MSNBC they do legitimately no joke no exaggeration no hyperbole they almost all look mentally ill do you see it too now if if I thought that CNN was also just as mentally ill then I think you could say Okay Scott you're just being a team player you know you're just saying oh everybody in the left is mentally ill no I'm not saying that at all there are plenty of people on the left who don't come come across that way at all not even a little bit but MSNBC consistently looked mentally ill I would guarantee if you if you look at the percentage of those hosts who are in therapy it would be higher than any other network would anybody take that other side of that bat would you take the bat that if you looked at all the onair hosts of all the different networks that the highest percentage in therapy would be MSNBC would anybody take that bet I wouldn't bet against it it to me it looks obvious same same thing with it's basically a whole bunch of commas there's just something going on there that's different than having a different opinion well anyway uh so the way MSNBC was treating all of Trump's supporters who were showing up in court is that they're all uh supplicants and they're all sucking up to them and maybe they want the VP job and and all that is that a good frame that the see the people are uh let's see the Speaker of the House John V ramaswami Byron Donaldson a few others I think now when you see those names do you say to yourself oh obviously these These are the suck-ups these are the ones who just want to ingratiate themselves with Trump at the maximum amount is is that your take on it now it doesn't hurt to make the presumptive candidate happy so you can't say that's a nothing right it does matter what Trump wants and it does matter that some people want to work with him or be productive parts of the administration so yeah yeah there's going to be a little bit of support going on but I don't think that's exactly what's happening let let me put the frame on it that makes more sense and Byron Donaldson did this for us he's beating the gag order it's just a way to beat the gag order all he's doing is bringing in his proxies and by the way MSNBC said he was editing their comments before they made them I don't know about that and I think if he did that would be you know potentially a gag order issue so I don't know that that's true that was just reported by somebody who wasn't under oath uh and MSNBC so you know use your judgment on that but my take is um what do these people have in common Johnson V and Byron Donaldson let's just take the last two vake and Byron Donaldson what do they have in common besides the fact that somebody would say they would like you know to be vpus or have a role in the administration what else do they have in common besides being drum Sports it's not obvious is it a coincidence that Trump brought the two best communicators in the Republican party no three best JD Vance JD Vance is there I forgot about him the three best communicators in the entire Republican party plus the speaker of the house that's what he did he brought the three best communicators in the Republican Party V ramaswami Byron Donaldson JD Vance they're not just good they're good at a whole other level they're good at a level where the Democrats don't even have any body at that level their best person is below all three of them their best person doesn't communicate as well as any of those three now what about Johnson he he's a very capable Communicator he's not he's not on the level of a ramaswami Vance Donaldson he's not on that level but I'd also like to point out that in Trump trump will never say this CU he doesn't need to two of the three people that I've called out as the best communicators in the Republican Party are not white men I love the fact that you know if I didn't bring it up because I'm provocative it doesn't need to be brought up the Republicans simply show you their hand here's my cards here's what I got I got a vake I got a Byron Donaldson what do you got AOC come on really what do you got uh Adam Chef Eric sell show us your cards right and then you throw in JD Vance and it's it's crazy I mean those are by far the best communicators you'd agree right uh all that's missing is maybe Ted Cruz you know Ted Cruz should be that list as the you know great communicators but uh Johnson is there because he's the you know he's the most important Republican I suppose you'd say who's elected at the moment so to me this looks like a curated group I want to bring in the best communicators and the most important Republican and what did the news do they could not ignore they could not ignore it oh yeah um Matt Gates is now Matt Gates is more of a Firebrand kind of Communicator so he might I don't know if he's the number one choice that I would bring in for this because he he brings his own you his own set of complaints about him uh but yeah he's a great communicator that's true so to me this is just a huge display of not just support for the president it's a clear indication that it's lawfare do you think that you would get this group of cats to show up at court to support Trump if there was any doubt about whether he was guilty or innocent no the fact that they show up is really strong evidence that they that the question of whether there's any guilt has already been removed before the trial is even over I don't know anyone who thinks any any crime has been even demonstrated or even listed that's what VES said say can you tell me the crime we've been we've been watching this this you know Court situation for what days and days and days almost over now list the crime tell me the crime MSNBC can you list it can you describe it in a way that's even coherent because no crime was demonstrated and no crime was even called out now under those situ under those conditions is it safe for the top Republicans you know the ones who want to make sure that their reputations are not destroyed is it safe for them to sit in the court and back the defendant absolutely so the message that it's so safe that even these other Republicans are not worried about being tarnished by being in a criminal case for Trump you know being in the audience they're so safe because it's so obvious even CNN is calling it an AS lawfare that it does nothing but add to the gravitas of Trump's complaint that this is so bogus that the most respectable Republicans can show up and sit there and they don't have to did did the Republicans who supported him have to tell any lies no they simply had to describe what they saw that's it very safe so the fact that Trump has once again figured out how to beat the media by bringing in his strongest players making them get time because you know it's it's a the fact that they're there at all is a show they got to cover the show yeah and this is one of the things I always say about Trump is if you don't understand the show and the show is the whole show it's like everything he does if you don't understand the show you don't understand anything and and this was this was a brilliant scene within the larger show the Trump show a brilliant scene everything about this was right now I'm going to say it again because every time I say it I think it's interesting the biggest story about Trump's campaign so far is that it's Flawless how are we not talking about that right cuz that wasn't true the first camp pain you know he was a little little uh little too edgy maybe although probably got him elected you know the more provocative he was it probably added energy but at the moment he doesn't need that he doesn't need he doesn't need any scary energy he's killing it I mean I've never seen performance at this level and I would guess that whoever he's taking his advice from and I could only speculate about that but keep doing it whoever is advising Trump and again is Trump a dictator I doubt it because this looks very much like he's taking good advice doesn't it in your opinion doesn't this look like Trump is really well advised and taking the advice it looks like that to me and that's the president I want right I want the president who if the if the experts are acting crazy maybe ignores but if they're nailing it you know he's going to surf it I think he's he's surfing I think he's surfing the uh V wave and probably probably the other folks as well good advice keep it up um and then MSNBC is trying to put down some suppressive fire by saying that everybody who works with Trump ends up like Co and her Pence imagine msbc and seeing these three cats show up four of them Johnson vake Donson and Vance and and they've got to make them act like they're clowns or something they couldn't it's their strongest people and so instead they say well you know if all these strong people keep defending Trump and they work for the administration maybe they don't know they'll end up like Cohen or they'll end up like Pence do you know how you end up like Cohen there's only one way it's acting like Cohen Trump trump didn't turn Cohen into Cowen he was already Cohen right you're not going to see Byron Donaldson turn into Michael Cowen and and the Pence thing was a was a a once ever one and done I mean really the only problem that Pence had was how he handled January 6 and I'm not even sure who's wrong I know you don't like it but um I've always appreciated that Pence was trying to figure out what was the right thing to do now maybe you think he got it wrong that time but I've never I've never disrespected pets for taking a stand maybe he got it wrong maybe he got it right but I respect that he took he took the hard stand I I'll always give him that credit even if you don't like it well uh Biden's out there again uh after getting fact checked hard by the media for claiming that uh inflation was 1.4% no that inflation was 9% when he came in well it was more like 1.3 or something and so it actually went up to nine in his administration and now it's down to three something but it's above where it was so he goes out and after getting fact Jack hard he says the very same thing the next day what would cause that why would it be that knowing he would get slapped down he would go out and just say the same damn thing that everybody just called a giant lie well I have two possible explanations number one it works because the fact checking is only on the right leaning networks it's not getting fact checked probably anywhere else do you think MSNBC is factchecking that no I don't think so it it would be news itself if they fact checked it so he probably knows that because of the media bubble that everybody's in he could just keep saying it just just keep claiming it until it sounds true now I you know as you know Trump uses that technique as well so you know sometimes it's just Hy hyperboy and directionally true and if you repeat it enough people think it's true so it could be that he just knows that lying works the other possibility that I find more tantalizing is that his staff has given up and I think that's the case I believe his advisers have literally given up on him because I think that behind the scenes they're getting dementia uh tear Downs here's what I think is happening uh Mr.

President um about the thing you said yesterday um I just want to give you little fact check that uh the media is treating that you know unkindly and uh the facts don't really support what you said so maybe maybe you could soften that a little bit or kind kind of find a different way to do it what do you think he says to that I think he starts dementia screaming oh get out of here oh what are you trying to oh it really really did go up oh and then after that happens about three times and you look the polls and you see he losing anyway and there's probably no way to reverse it do you say I'm going to go do that again or do you say well screw him let him go out and just kill himself I mean not not literally but let him go out and just sink in the media look at the face of Tony blinkin I'll talk about him in a moment look at the face of grin John Pierre they have they have the capitulation face like there's something happening they don't like and there's nothing they can do about it it is all over their faces and they both look like they gave up so the other story is about Tony blinkin over in Kev and he announces that Kev is not or Ukraine is not going to have elections until the war is over which basically means no elections and then he goes and he he he plays with the band he's playing guitar and singing uh and people said that's a terrible look to say there's going to be no democracy and you're up there playing your thing and and it was just a terrible terrible look and I said to myself do you think that Tony blinkin would not be aware that that would be a bad play he would obviously know it would be filmed he would obviously know it would be a story he would obviously know it was the wrong choice to look like he's all having a good time in the war zone it looks like capitulation to me to me it looks like he knows the game is over and maybe even the entire illegal operation in Ukraine will be revealed under a different Administration he had the eyes of a person who looks like he thinks he's going to jail now I can't read his mind but look at his eye in the last couple days and look at Karin jeene Jean Pierre's eyes and her demeanor she looks like she already was told she's leaving because I have this Theory I don't remember if I said this stop me if I said this on the live stream yesterday I may have SED on the man cave separately that if you're the campaign for Biden and you know that your your uh your candidate can't talk in public what are you going to do well you'd better have great surrogates so Trump can't talk in public because he's a gag he's gagged so he brings in the best communicators of all time who happen to be Republican Joe Biden can't talk in public but he's got a problem his spokesperson can't either so youve got a spokesperson who can't talk in public without embarrassing the party H talking for somebody who can't talk in public because he's he's just too gone don't you think that the campaign has been trying hard to replace John uh Ken John Pier if they haven't been trying to replace her they are not doing their job because their only hope is to get rid of her right away and bring in a strong player who can actually support Trump's or support Biden's point of view without Biden doing it and they got nobody to do that now they got nothing so I think her uh Ken John Pierre's problem is from the the Biden campaign that's my guess yeah all right uh let's see what else uh so uh Biden has agreed to debate he's agreed to two debates so Biden says uh he was talking tough in his little video saying he wants two debates was one in the end of June and one in September end of June would get Trump pass his his legal case that he's in and the other ones are delayed so he wouldn't have that trouble and uh here's what you have to say take a look at the video of Biden saying he agrees to two debates and sort of challenging Trump and watch how many edits there are in the video so I think he talks for 30 seconds somebody said there are five video edits I caught at least one do you know what that means it means they couldn't trust them to read a teleprompter that was only 30 seconds long that they had to edit out so many mistakes that that it looked like they're they're only like a week away from doing like a one of these uh black mail notes where you cut out the cut out the letters from the newspaper and paste them on the page I think they're going to start taking individual words that he's ever spoken and just put them together with Clips until he's not wearing the same outfit like look for look for his clothes to change while he's talking that's coming up it'll be like the inflation is and then his necktie will change to another another one It'll like oh and Biden oh Trump oh oh it's going to look like that so watch for his necktie to change while he talks all right in the meantime oh well so here's my prediction my prediction is he will not debate and that he will cancel the June debate why why will he cancel the June debate two possibilities number number one oh oh look there's a fake pandemic there there's an emergency I'm so busy I'm so busy with my emergency that I couldn't possibly debate because I got to run this country it looks like Russia's attacking Russia has upped its attack on Ukraine well it wouldn't be right for me to be debating when I got to be managing this war situation so it's either going to be I can't do it the other possibility is he's going to claim that Trump is asking for something unreasonable so let's say Trump says uh Biden also said he only wants to do it if it's moderated by uh Lefty entities now he didn't say Lefty entities he named the ones that have done it recently you said it has to be one of those and they were all left leaning entities so what if Trump says how about we do the June one with a you know at least one right leaning entity and maybe the September one was something else something like that that gives Biden the opportunity to say well I guess you turned down to debate didn't you I offered hey but you you asked for those conditions and oh no that's unreasonable why don't you do it the way we always did it they were the same entities that were in the primaries nobody complained then so I guess you just you're afraid to debate aren't you or yeah so there'll either be like reasons that um or or it might be that uh he doesn't want to give oxygen to Trump because he's such a bad person like something new will happen to new hoax oh but based on the new hoax I can't even give this this dictator white supremacist any air uh so I'm going to cancel because the public should not shouldn't even hear him talk let's see in the comments how many of you think there will be a June debate given that he couldn't do a 30- second video about the debate I think it's a trick I think he's just buying time and he could be buying time until they replace him and he knows it's going to happen could be it could be capitulation it could be that Biden kept saying oh I can do it I can do it and his staff knows he can't but it could be that the staff said if we can get him to do the debate in June and he falls apart we still have time to replace him because it's before their convention isn't it it's before the convention right oh give me give me a fact check in that when is the DNC DNC convention is when it's after that right is it before or after it's after yeah so it could be it could be a Hail Mary by the staff so the campaign staff might know full well that you can't survive a debate and it might make the polling you know 20 point difference or something and that would give them the juice to finally replace them yeah July and August are the their conventions okay yeah end of June is a suspicious because it's uh it's perfectly timed to replace him if he fails so maybe that's the play because that would look like capitulation as well all right meanwhile the uh Trump campaign has a new ad in which they're saying that uh Biden is denying reality about the economy acting like it's fine and here's their framing they say is it dishonesty or dementia oh that's so good is it dishonesty or dementia because the trumpers know that the public doesn't think the economy is great you know inflation is high they know that so if Trump if Trump gives them two options well if you agree with us that the economy is not as good as it looks how do you you explain Biden saying it looks great two options dishonesty or dementia he either doesn't know the difference or he's being dishonest do you know what would have been a worse way to go to say lying or dementia lying wouldn't have landed as well but dishonesty dishonesty is wider isn't it dishonesty gets all the way to Hunter Biden and Ukraine dishonesty is a much more clever word in this context because if he just said he lied what would people say they say well Trump lies too if you say he's dishonest well now it's not as clean as everybody lies because it might be true that all the politicians lie except for Thomas Massie and Rand Paul Maybe um but it's not necessarily true that we think of them as thoroughly dishonest because Trump will have been so vetted that um if if if you have 91 indictments and none of them land it's going to look like oh maybe maybe he does tell some Whoppers but all the politicians do but dishonest dishonest is a different level that's a very good choice of words for the ad all right um Mike Ben reports that uh apparently the government of the United States uh did some grants to some groups to study how to censor Target groups without triggering the Martyr effect how to censor Americans Americans the government funded grants to study how to censor Americans without the person being centered knowing about it just think about that now their claim was that they were trying to get rid of the the haze speech you know the the bad stuff but of course you know goes deeper than that so the way they did it was they discovered that if they if you simp cancel the person at the top the person who's making all the trouble they become a martyr and they get stronger hello does that sound like something that happened to me they made me a martyr and I got Stronger Yeah does it look like it happened to Tucker they made him a martyr and he got stronger yeah yeah I don't know about Alex Jones uh I I thought I heard that Alex Jones is going to have to close INF Wars because the the laware against them is that true he's going to close it and reconstitute it as something else because it has to go bankrupt yeah well there are some people who definitely became less strong when they got canceled but the idea was to go after the people who boost them so that they wouldn't know so they would just censor the the lieutenants as Mike Ben calls them the people below the influence ERS because if there are people with a million people in their account who keep retweeting these same influencers you can just stop the million people retweets and then it just looks like it looks like people don't care when all it is is you got rid of the lieutenant that is a real thing that was that is really happening in the United States um you will see I'll tell you in a few days about a book of mine that's coming out that 20 years ago I predicted this very thing I predicted a concept called the prime influencer the idea that you could use big data which is what they're doing to identify who are the influencers and it wouldn't be obvious and that if you could turn off the influencers you could basically control everything and that's what they're doing exactly like my fictional book from 20 years ago and that ladies and gentlemen is all I want to talk about today so I'm going to say goodbye to the uh You.

Tube and Rumble and ex audience I'm going to stick with the subscribers here on locals um where they get a lot more than just the Dilbert comic a lot more and I'll see you all tomorrow same place same time let's see if this works e e e e e e e e e e e e e for

hey there we

are thanks for finding

me looks like locals is in the house do

we have Rumble any Rumblers any

YouTubers is everybody here or just just

locals I want to wait to see oh there's

a YouTube in the house anybody from

Rumble today is Rumble here

yet sometimes Rumble might take a few

more seconds

all right well I think if we've got

YouTube and locals we probably have

Rumble so we're probably in good

shape no video

yet

okay let's see if I can make the video

come

on

huh so no video yet

huh um what does anybody on YouTube oh

there we go we got video just took a

moment we got video

good morning everybody and welcome to

the highlight of human civilization it's

called coffee with Scott Adams and

you've never had a better time and let

me tell you today is going to be

special would you like to see me do

magic today I'm going to do magic today

I'm going to cure thousands of people of

mental

illness

literally and if you'd like to see that

and all the amazing things all you need

is a CER micro glass a tanker gel

orstein a canteen Jugger flask a vessel

of any kind fill it with your favorite

liquid I like coffee and join me now for

the unparallel pleasure the dope mean h

of the day think makes everything better

it's called a simultaneous siping

happens now

go yes I am indeed going to solve mental

illness for probably thousands of you

really truly this is not a joke and

it'll happen in just a few minutes in

next five minutes some of you are going

to have the biggest problem of your life

solved not all of you but some of you

it'll be kind of exciting wait for

that well Peter Zan tells us that the uh

that uh American companies can now

petition the government to apply for us

protective tariffs if China says they

have to transfer their technology so you

know if when American companies or

foreign companies work with

China China often or maybe always says

that they have to transfer their

technology to them and now if they

demand that apparently us companies have

an option they can they can apply to the

government to put a tariff on

China that's actually a pretty good idea

I I mean I I don't see it in the news I

only see people Zan saying it but he's

probably right I mean I I doubt he'd

make it up so I'm going to say that uh

that's a very

trumpian that feels like a trump-like

policy Trump never had that policy as

far as I know uh if he had I would have

said it was good so I'm going to say

it's good uh even though it's not

Trump there is a study that

suggests that uh driving uh if you're

texting and driving you're probably a

psychopath now did you really need a

study to know

that that if somebody is operating a

dangerous motor

vehicle 80 mil an hour and they're

looking at their

phone do you need to do a scientific

study to find out if there's something

wrong with that person's

priorities maybe their

empathy well I think it's a little more

complicated than being Psychopaths I

think some people just have a different

um relationship with

risk isn't that fair to say how how do

you know you're measuring Psychopaths

who don't care if they get you know kill

you in a crash versus somebody who just

has a high tolerance or risk and they

think they're good at texting and

driving at the same time but it feels it

looks the

same but I will tell you that anybody

who makes a phone call in Starbucks is

definitely a

psychopath and that what I don't

understand I know that they think oh

it's a public place but you look around

the public place and you see all these

people on laptops clearly trying to

concentrate how do you not know that

making a loud long cell phone call in

that environment makes everybody want to

stab you how do you not know that you'd

have to be a

psychopath all right um I think think

I'm just going to go ahead and do it I'm

going to cure a bunch of

you so I tried a uh a

reframe with my audience uh yesterday

and I think the other day as well in

which if you get ruminating and you're

thinking too much in your head that you

simply use two words get out and you

treat yourself like you have two

lives so here's the reframe and by the

way I checked this morning and my

Audience by an overwhelming number of

comments said they tried this and it

completely helped their mental health

instantly let me say it again just I

don't know how many people dozens dozens

of people this morning just before I

went live here I do a pre-show with with

my uh subscribers and I asked them if

they tried the technique and I'll

describe it again but they said they did

and just dozens of people said it

instantly helped them M so here's the

technique you know how when you're in

your head you're living in an imaginary

world you know you're thinking about

what happened which doesn't exist the

past and you're thinking about what

might happen which doesn't exist the

future so you actually when you're in

your head you're living in a world that

doesn't exist but there's an external

world where you're touching things and

doing things and doing chores and

exercising and working and doing things

the external world is

real so what I found is that these two

words get out will immediately take you

out of your internal World your

imaginary world and put you into the

real one and you just remind yourself no

get out of the imaginary world get into

the real one get out get out and those

two words will actually become a trigger

or a key that helps you do the thing

that you want it to do so you associate

words with actions especially CS of your

own body and those will become

sticky it doesn't take long you just

have to say something and associated

with a feeling or a situation gets

sticky really fast so I want you all to

try this and you're going to be amazed

the next time you're too much in your

head and you got recurring thoughts or

whatever just say out loud get out get

out and you're not talking just about

getting out of your head you're talking

about getting out of the house just

stand up and walk

outside if it's cold stand up and walk

around the

house but the get out is a reminder that

you are two people you're not one person

there's one of you that lives in the

completely imaginary world of your mind

and the other one lives in the real

world but the only one that has a

problem is the imaginary one so you can

starve the imaginary one of its energy

but just ain't get out I I choose to

walk through this doorway and now I'm in

the real

world I guarantee ba based on the

comments I got back this morning I

guarantee that a healthy percentage you

just just solved one of the biggest

problems in your whole life now that

ladies and gentlemen is why I wake up in

the

morning I remind you I don't really need

to

work but this is why I do it because it

has some value and I find that waking up

without the at least the potential to

add something to the world uh sort of

meaningless and stupid so I like to make

sure I've got at least one thing going

on at all times that could make a

difference and we'll see if that makes a

difference I guarantee that'll work for

some percentage of you guarantee it

because the the overwhelming response

from the people who tried it is just too

strong all right that is your gift for

the day and uh I'll ask you tomorrow how

many of you tried it and even by

tomorrow watch the comments it'll be a

wall of comments who said oh my God I

tried that and it

worked the greatest reframe ever

maybe there's a technology called shot

spotter that allows the police to know

where a gunshot has been fired in their

city and and wokeness is reporting on

the xplatform that Senator Warren and

Senator Mary and representative Ayan

Presley they're trying to get rid of

shot spotting in

Boston why why would you want to get rid

of a technology that helps you know

where there's some violence with

guns can you guess take a guess why

would you want to get rid of

it well it turns out that they put most

of the shot spotters the technology in

black neighborhoods

and they're saying that's racist so get

rid of

them do you know why they put them in

the black

neighborhoods uh it wasn't because

they're

black that they put him in the the high

crime

neighborhoods now what

exactly do Warren mky and Presley think

they're going to to get out of this

that's good for the people of Boston

were the people in Boston clamoring for

less or slower police response to

shootings was somebody asking for that

it's like hey hey there was a shooting

in my neighborhood and the police were

here in

seconds that's pretty

racist aren't they supposed to be there

quickly if there's like a

crime I don't understand any part of the

story is there something missing is it

possible the story was reported with

like important context left out or is it

just as stupid as it

looks I'm going to go with I think it's

just as stupid as it looks I

think

so how could everything be racist so I

was seeing a clip uh that Tucker Carlson

was talking to uh quarterback Rogers and

tuu was saying that during the Occupy

Wall Street years when there were big

protests about all the rich people in

Wall Street that it was just that same

time when that was at its peak that the

New York Times suddenly had a

substantial increase in references to

racism and racist and racism and white

supremacy and then suddenly The

Narrative changed and it was no longer

about hey those are rich people it was

all about hey those white

people that's

right the allegation is

this and and I've always said this by

the way I've told you that I've been the

victim of extreme racism in my career

extreme I lost my job at a bank for

being a white guy I lost my job at the

phone company for being a white guy my

TV show was uh basically cancelled

because I wasn't African-American and

they were going to to do a a block on

UPN of just black

programming so I've been super super

discriminated against but I but I

sometimes forget to tell you this all of

the Discrimination was at the hands of

white men and white

women I've never been discriminated

against as far as I know by a black

person like ever I can't think of any

case where that's ever happened how

about an Asian-American

discriminate against

me can't think of a time about a

Hispanic American discriminating against

me anytime anytime in my

life can't think of one anybody who is

half

black discriminated against me ever not

once I mean I can't think of any time

but how many times have rich

white people discriminated against me

well a lot a lot and let me tell you

rich white people are the

worst I think I can say that right

because I'm a right rich white

guy I I can criticize my own people I

believe that's fair I believe

criticizing my own people is fair so

sometimes people misunderstand me when

they say that I'm a victim of extreme

racial discrimination and gender it's

it's all from white men and a little bit

from women but mostly mostly it's white

men who do you think canceled me uh from

newspapers do you think there were a lot

of uh uh black owners of

newspapers there might be some but I'm

I'm not even aware of any actually so no

white people white people cancelled me

it's always white people and the occupy

Wall Street thing just sort of brings

that up it's like wait a minute there

was all this pressure against rich white

people and then suddenly there's all

this you know CRT n SG and Dei and it's

it's all we're talking about it sounds a

lot like the rich white people threw in

a little diversion doesn't it that's

what it feels

like don't know what's true but that's

what it feels

like uh just before I got on I saw there

was

a huge Improvement in the full

self-driving feature on the Teslas so

something that'll make it five to 10

times

more uh let's see more self-driving

meaning that uh far fewer human

interactions and at the same time um

apparently the California Air Resource

Board the carb never even heard of them

uh have some kind of deal where they're

going to raise my California gas prices

50 cents next year and every year

after in order to reduce

emissions they're actually going to just

price me out of

gas now this is in addition to the

existing gas TX so it's not like just a

gas tack it's it's raising the gas T

yeah 50 cents a gallon right 5050 cents

a gallon

and that's real that apparently that's

going to actually happen now at the same

time I was trying to decide between a

nice American

Bronco gas vehicle mostly because I like

their look and they seem to be you know

they'd have

utility

um or a

Tesla now I'm not sold on electric cars

just cuz I don't have a charger in my

house but if I put one in I suppose it

wouldn't be the biggest deal because I

don't take long tricks trips anyway

usually so I think that if California is

going to try to price me on a gas unless

I'm going to

move I might want to go for the Tesla

but then somebody said that the

insurance is more for the electric cars

is that true is Insurance more for a

Tesla than a similarly priced vehicle

I've never heard that before any confirm

that because I I don't know if anybody's

done the full cost of

ownership because I always thought the

electric was a lower full cost of

ownership for the car dealer um there's

a separate question about Recycling and

all that stuff I see a no I see a not

really I see a yes I see Nos and yeses I

see doubted right so that might be fake

news well I am seeing yeses though I'm

seeing yeses and

NOS Well it can't be that big of a

difference

then some people saying maybe a little

but nothing

important 10% more somebody says all

right we don't know exactly we're a

little mixed on our fact checking here

but it doesn't look like it's you know

double or

anything so I guess so at the moment

given that uh I did learn that a bicycle

would fit in the back of a Tesla an

ebike and it also has a bike rack I'm

leaning pretty heavily toward the full

self-driving Tesla because I think I

might actually use my vehicle more if it

drove

itself here's the thing I don't like

about long

drives I don't like that it forces me to

think their

thoughts like the car forces me to think

about you know the road and everything

and I don't like think about something

I'm forced to think about for a long

time but if I could just sit there and I

don't know do you pay attention or do

you stop paying attention to the road

until it tells you to I don't know would

it feel different

mentally I guess I'll have to experience

it to know but anyway I'm leaning toward

the Tesla over the gas

car at the

moment speaking of Elon Musk he's uh

reiterated that the terms CIS and

consist gender are considered

slurs and you'll get a warning on X if

you keep it

up um now I think I played this just

right and what I mean by that is uh for

how many years have we' been hearing

this term CIS and

cisgender for I don't know maybe eight

years or something when did it pop into

existence but it's been years now right

and the first time I heard it I thought

huh I don't know what that even means

and then also the second time I heard it

and and the thousandth time I heard it

every time I said you know I should

probably Google that I should go figure

out what that means because it kept

popping up and I didn't know what it

meant and I managed to ride that all the

way until it was banned now I don't need

to know what it

means I played it just right I I refused

to know what it was and that it didn't

matter because it turned into some kind

of an insult and you're not supposed to

say it anyway so well played Scott well

played by ignoring it um I had a

philosophy teacher in college who used

to who taught the inbox trick which by

the way has influenced so much in my

life and the inbox trick goes like this

if somebody puts something in your inbox

let's say something they want you to

deal with you leave it there for two

weeks that was that was his method if

somebody asks you to do something you

leave it you you age it for two weeks

and and this was his theory he said if

it's important they'll take care of it

themselves like if you're not dealing

with it they'll find some other way to

get it done because it's important if

after two weeks they're not clamoring

for

it it wasn't important in the first

place now I spend so much time thinking

about that

about whether wait does that really work

I mean it doesn't feel like that makes

sense but when you try it it does seem

to work I can't tell you how many times

somebody has asked me to do something

urgent and I just threw it in the mental

inbox I'm like nope and then a week

later they say never

mind never mind I figured out a way to

do it all right it's a great

trick all all right uh there's a new

study that says there's a compound in

cannabis that might uh be protective

against Alzheimer's and

Parkinson's so it doesn't say that you

could get this benefit by smoking it

it's a compound in it but I'm going to

guess that you probably

do because I'm trying to figure out why

the older I get the smarter I

am it's probably the protective benefits

of the Cannabis compounds

not only do I not have Alzheimer's but I

think my IQ is at least

doubled wait if I think that probably

means I do have

dementia damn it there's no way out of

this get out get out all right I'm

back all right uh here's my theme for

the rest of the show it's called are we

still a

republic are we still a republic I'll

see if I can make this theme work

first story uh nearly 40,000 ballots in

Nevada were counted after election day

40,000 now that would be illegal those

would should not be counted 40,000 but

the question you ask is well it's just

40,000 right out of the whole

state how much did uh Biden win a Nevada

by

34,000 there were 40,000 illegal

votes that mostly went to

Biden and he only won by that amount H

huh that's

weird that's weird now on one hand you

could certainly understand why those

votes were counted because if they were

real

votes if they were real

votes even if technically they shouldn't

have been

counted it doesn't feel that bad does it

if you think to yourself well they

intended to vote maybe the mail got

delayed you know you don't have a result

yet why not at least you can enfranchise

your voters and make sure their vote

counted on the other hand does anybody

believe that this was totally legit that

just coincidentally the exact amount of

votes came in after the

date does anybody think that's

legitimate it might be

can't rule it

out but yeah so you you're asking the

right question what about the postmark I

think there are two standards but I need

a fact check on this depending on the

state I think that the postmark would

matter or the when you received it

matter I think it I think it depends on

the state but I need to I need a fact

check on that anyway this is the claim

that the votes came in after the fact

should not have been counted but they

were and may have changed the result for

at least one

state well the Rasmus and Poland company

asked this question

directly um to find out if we're still a

republic uh and here's their lead and

I'll just tell you what they said after

the Constitutional Convention in

1787 when Ben Franklin was asked what

kind of government the convention had

created he said and I quote and by the

way I always think these um historical

quotes are just made up I I never think

these are like the real quote but

allegedly Ben Franklin said a republic

if you can keep

it well rasmon asked the

public um are we still a republic and

did we keep

it only 39% of likely us voters believe

America has done a good job of keeping

the

Republic 39%

47% think the Republic the founders

created has already

fallen 14% are not so

sure 47% think the Republic has already

fallen

47% um but here's the question I'm going

to test you

on for those of you who are uh new to

this new to my live streams you're going

to be amazed

watch this watch how they can answer the

question before I ask it

go just go show off go on show show your

stuff there we go the answers are coming

in I haven't even asked the question yet

but watch this look and and you and

you're all right you're all correct okay

here's a question that you've already

answered without even knowing the answer

without even knowing the question uh

what percentage of Voters according to

rasmon believe the federal government

today has the consent of the

Govern

26% 26% believe the government is acting

with the consent of the

government and you knew the answer

before I asked the question because

you're the smartest audience in the

history of the entire Republic which

doesn't exist according to most

people all right

how many of you saw a uh there was a

little news story because KL Harris used

the F-word when talking to a bunch of I

think they were uh some kind of

Asian-American women's group I think and

uh she said that you know sometimes if

the door is closed you've got to quote

kick the effing door down except she

used the whole

word now so the story

was hey she used an F-word

now can we all agree that nobody cares

about that right nobody cares that a

politician swears I kind of like it

actually I have to admit I like it if

they don't do it all the

time and they use it for those moments

when they really need to you know

accentuate a point I think Trump uses

cursing better than any politician of

all time because he doesn't overuse it

he'll just throw in a you know an sww or

mostly an sww I think he doesn't use the

FW it's well

done but I think uh I think you missed

the headline on this

story I I want you to go back if you saw

the clip or if you haven't seen it go

look at it I want you to see if you

maybe missed the the top line of what

the story should have

been she was

drunk really obviously

drunk now it could have been some other

inebriation

but she was very

inebriated now how is that not the story

the story is she used an f- word no how

about the story is this is the way she

did it and you should kick theable W

down how do you ignore that

part no the story wasn't about her

choice of words it was it was about a

choice of drinks

that should have been the

story just think about the fact that you

got Joe Biden shuffling around

his pants halfway to the helicopter

where it looks like it and that the

number two person is appearing drunk in

public now I I'm sorry I'm going to stop

saying maybe drunk can we stop saying

maybe that was drunk as all right

you can't look at that and think she was

sober you can't no I I I challenge you I

challenge you to look at that and say oh

yeah that's

sober how is that not the

story and and do you not see it are

there people who can't

recognize you can't recognize a drunk in

public that's about the easiest thing

you can

spot but because you used the f word it

it diverted everybody like a magic trick

it's like oh the real magic trick is she

used that

word

wow all right um CNN's Daniel Dale the

fact Checker is back and he came to fact

check Donald Trump's

speech

huh I feel like he's always on vacation

when Trump gives or when Biden says

something where where's uh Daniel Dale

fact checking Biden you they they only

pull them out when Trump gives a rally

now here's the funny part remember I

told you that you don't understand the

news unless you know the

players right if you don't know what the

players have done or who they're

connected to you're kind of Flying Blind

everything is about who knows who and

who did what and who's connected to what

so even this story so if you just turned

on the TV you would

see a fact Checker uh talking to a

couple of C and hosts and doing a bunch

of fact checks on on Trump and if that's

all you knew you'd say wow that Trump

sure tells a lot of Whoppers and that

would be your impression now let me tell

you a little bit about the players one

of the hosts Abby Phillip is a promoter

of the fine people

hoax she believe she believes and she

has promoted on the air that Trump said

the neo-nazis were fine people do you

ever remember Daniel Dale factchecking

that I don't think so I don't believe

I've ever seen him take a run at that so

if you didn't know that the fact Checker

who seems to be absent when Biden does

anything uh if he didn't know he was

talking to a purveyor of the fine people

hoax it looks really different doesn't

it but once you know he's talking to a

famous I assume lying because I don't

think anybody's dum enough to know that

that was true um anybody in the news

business um it changes everything it's

like oh a famous hoaxer who has a job as

a News

host anyway here's something interesting

RFK Jr said that

um he says he doesn't want president

Trump to have a second chance in office

in part because he says Trump was rolled

by his bureaucrats uh to impose

lockdowns and shut down businesses uh

policies that made things worse all

right so RFK Jr let's let's pull some

things together so RFK JR says the

president Trump is too influenced by

experts is that a

problem is it what if it gone the other

way I I'm trying to imagine a world in

which uh mean old orange man Trump

overruled the entire scientific

consensus of the

time how was that going to

go and and I ask you if we had a

president RFK Jr and the entire

scientific Community said you should do

X but RFK Jr said no do

y would you be comfortable with that now

I get that he was right about things

you and and that the experts were wrong

we all get that I'm not saying that if

you take one approach versus the other

you'll always get the right answer no

but I don't think there was a path where

Trump could ignore the experts during

the

pandemic that that's completely re uh

revisionary history if you put yourself

in the context of the time he couldn't

ignore the experts

even if he thought fouchi was

he couldn't really ignore him

because fouchi was agreeing with the

other

experts it wasn't really about fouchi

and by the way um I will tell you from

my I won't call it my own reporting but

you know everybody has sources I'm

pretty sure that Trump thought fouchy

was

but the entire scientific

Community was sort of on the same sish

you know except for the few notable

people who were dissidents and got it

right so how in the world are you

supposed to expect him to ignore experts

the next time would you be comfortable

with that now if next time looked

exactly like the co thing then yes right

if there was a mysterious new virus yes

yes I would expect Trump to know it's a

second trick but what if it's a brand

new situation

you know let's say there's a volcano and

all the experts say you better wear a

mask for 2

weeks do you want Trump to say you don't

need a mask I

don't no I I kind of want to hear what

the experts say because I don't think

we're at the point where you can ignore

them or that you want a non-expert to

overrule them right in front of you how

is that better but here's the

interesting part how can it be true that

Trump is a

uh a dictator and he has authoritative

authoritarian um instincts when at the

same time he's being criticized for

listening to The

Experts you have to pick one right he's

either the person who ignores everybody

and does what he wants or he's the

person who takes expert advice including

generals including military people

doesn't mean he agrees with them all the

time I get that

but no you don't want him ignoring

experts so you have to decide so you've

got somebody who's running as a Democrat

is saying that Trump is not dictatorial

enough and he's letting experts

influence him at the same time another

Democrat now I realize RFK Jr is not

running in the Democrat Party but he's

Democrat and so the other Democrat Biden

is saying he's a dictator and he's not

going to listen to The Experts

so it's all made up neither neither of

those uh images ring

true let me tell you what I think Trump

is I think he's a practical person I

think he looks at every situation new he

says all right what works in this

situation does following the experts

make

sense sometimes yes sometimes no and I

think he's done a good job of calling

out when to ignore them because he has a

few times and I think gotten it right a

few times so I don't know it's tough to

criticize him for bending to The Experts

because we're looking at it with u that

20120

hindsight yes if Trump knew today

everything he knew then he should have

chosen differently but he didn't and how

could he it it's ridiculous to imagine

that he could have known then what we

know now that's that's just bad thinking

that's bad

analysis all

right um so we're learning that uh

Democrat Congressman Dan Goldman

apparently met a number of times with

Michael Cohen the big star witness in

the stormy

trial and uh he met to prepare him for

the trial

now you say to yourself huh that

certainly would support Trump's theory

that it's a organized Democrat plot and

it's not just the legal system doing its

thing but rather it's the Democrats

coordinating with the Department of

Justice in this case the store witness

so it looks exactly like the fix was in

but it gets better it turns out um the

judge the judge's

daughter uh

uh so Dan Goldman is a client of the

judge's daughter your your consulting

firm so the judge's daughter has a

consulting firm that consults Dan

Goldman let's see if you just hold this

in your head the judge's

daughter is paying a rep a democrat

congress person who's a Biden person who

is then advising the key witness in the

trial that that same judge is

in had to you know

basically end

Trump now is this a case of it's exactly

what it looks

like I love this

trial I didn't think I was going to love

it so much but the thing is it's making

it so clear what's going

on even if you're a Democrat

you see it by now don't

you if you're not just batshit crazy you

see it right you see that all the legal

cases were

bogus all of them you can see it really

clearly with a stormy case but it's not

a coincidence that the other ones are

delayed because there's some real

problems with the other ones real

problems so I feel like this is going to

be the Rosetta Stone for at least normal

Democrats normal meaning somebody who's

just you know not crazy

basically uh I think that they're

looking at this I think the freed

zakaras on CNN are looking at it and

saying flat out this is lawfare this is

a political

prosecution how in the

world how in the world do Democrats win

when CNN says they're doing a political

prosecution and only fewer than uh like

half the people think that the country

is not even a republic anymore how in

the world does Biden win without

cheating all

right uh number of

supporters well I think let's talk about

Cohen um I saw MSNBC saying he's doing a

great

job I was watching Morning Joe just melt

down today arguing with because there's

another there's a New York Times Sienna

poll that says uh Trump's up by 11

somewhere I think Nevada and and they

were just they were just melting

down Morning

Joe that is mental illness

right because you know I feel like you

know if I'm watching the conservative

news and I see somebody say something

that to me is you know clearly more

propaganda you know just team play it's

being a little unfair they never look

crazy the the people on the right the

Republicans they always look like they

know exactly what they're doing I'll use

Shan Hannity as my example does does

Shan Hannity ever look like he's

insane

no if you think he's saying something

that's not true or leaving out some

context looks like he's doing it

intentionally now you can have your

opinion about that but it doesn't look

crazy it just looks like he's pushing a

version of things that his audience

wants to hear nothing crazy about it so

it looks completely different over on

the other side when you watch

MSNBC I I only see mental

illness now I by the way I don't see

that in CNN so it's not just about you

know whether they like or don't like

Trump when I watch CNN I look at people

who look to me like they know what

they're doing in other words I I get the

Shan Hannity effect from CNN I think I

can't read your mind but I'm looking at

your eyes and your mannerisms it doesn't

look crazy it just looks like you're

pushing a view of things that's

different than the other view of things

somebody else is pushing but on

MSNBC they do legitimately no joke no

exaggeration no

hyperbole they almost all look mentally

ill do you see it

too now if if I thought that CNN was

also just as mentally ill then I think

you could say Okay Scott you're just

being a team player you know you're just

saying oh everybody in the left is

mentally ill no I'm not saying that at

all there are plenty of people on the

left who don't come come across that way

at all not even a little bit but MSNBC

consistently looked mentally

ill I would guarantee if you if you look

at the percentage of those hosts who are

in therapy it would be higher than any

other network would anybody take that

other side of that

bat would you take the bat that if you

looked at all the onair hosts of all the

different networks that the highest

percentage in therapy would be MSNBC

would anybody take that

bet I wouldn't bet against it it to me

it looks obvious

same same thing with it's basically a

whole bunch of commas there's just

something going on there that's

different than having a different

opinion well anyway uh so the way MSNBC

was treating all of Trump's supporters

who were showing up in court is that

they're all uh supplicants and they're

all sucking up to them and maybe they

want the VP job and and all that is that

a good frame that the see the people are

uh let's see the Speaker of the House

John

V ramaswami Byron Donaldson a few others

I think now when you see those names do

you say to yourself oh obviously these

These are the suck-ups these are the

ones who just want to ingratiate

themselves with Trump at the maximum

amount is is that your take on

it now it doesn't hurt to make the

presumptive candidate happy so you can't

say that's a nothing right it does

matter what Trump wants and it does

matter that some people want to work

with him or be productive parts of the

administration so yeah yeah there's

going to be a little bit of support

going on but I don't think that's

exactly what's happening let let me put

the frame on it that makes more sense

and Byron Donaldson did this for

us he's beating the gag

order it's just a way to beat the gag

order all he's doing is bringing in his

proxies and by the way MSNBC said he was

editing their comments before they made

them I don't know about that and I think

if he did that would be you know

potentially a gag order issue so I don't

know that that's true that was just

reported by somebody who wasn't under

oath uh and MSNBC so you know use your

judgment on that but my take is um what

do these people have in common Johnson V

and Byron Donaldson let's just take the

last two vake and Byron Donaldson what

do they have in common

besides the fact that somebody would say

they would like you know to be vpus or

have a role in the administration what

else do they have in

common besides being drum

Sports it's not

obvious is it a

coincidence that Trump brought the two

best communicators in the Republican

party no three best JD Vance JD Vance is

there I forgot about him the three best

communicators in the entire Republican

party

plus the speaker of the

house that's what he did he brought the

three best communicators in the

Republican

Party V ramaswami Byron Donaldson JD

Vance they're not just

good they're good at a whole other level

they're good at a level where the

Democrats don't even have any body at

that level their best person is below

all three of them their best

person doesn't communicate as well as

any of those three now what about

Johnson he he's a very capable

Communicator he's not he's not on the

level of a ramaswami Vance Donaldson

he's not on that

level but I'd also like to point

out that in Trump trump will never say

this CU he doesn't need to two of the

three people that I've called out as the

best communicators in the Republican

Party are not white

men I love the

fact that you know if I didn't bring it

up because I'm provocative it doesn't

need to be brought

up the Republicans simply show you their

hand here's my

cards here's what I got I got a vake

I got a Byron Donaldson what do you got

AOC come on

really what do you got uh Adam

Chef Eric sell show us your

cards right and then you throw in JD

Vance and it's it's

crazy I mean those are by far the best

communicators you'd agree right uh all

that's missing is

maybe Ted

Cruz you know Ted Cruz should be that

list as the you know great

communicators but uh Johnson is there

because he's the you know he's the most

important Republican I suppose you'd say

who's elected at the moment

so to me this looks like a curated group

I want to bring in the best

communicators and the most important

Republican and what did the news do they

could not

ignore they could not ignore it

oh yeah um Matt Gates is now Matt Gates

is more of a Firebrand kind of

Communicator so he might I don't know if

he's the number one choice that I would

bring in for this because he he brings

his own you his own set of complaints

about him uh but yeah he's a great

communicator that's

true so to me this is just a huge

display of not just support for the

president it's a clear indication that

it's

lawfare do you think that you would get

this group of cats to show up at court

to support Trump if there was any doubt

about whether he was guilty or innocent

no the fact that they show up is really

strong evidence that they that the

question of whether there's any guilt

has already been

removed before the trial is even over I

don't know anyone who thinks any any

crime has been even demonstrated or even

listed that's what VES said say can you

tell me the crime we've been we've been

watching this this you know Court

situation for what days and days and

days almost over now list the crime tell

me the crime MSNBC can you list it can

you describe it in a way that's even

coherent because no crime was

demonstrated and no crime was even

called

out now under those situ under those

conditions is it safe for the top

Republicans you know the ones who want

to make sure that their reputations are

not destroyed is it safe for them to sit

in the court and back the defendant

absolutely so the message that it's so

safe that even these other Republicans

are not worried about being tarnished by

being in a criminal case for Trump you

know being in the audience they're so

safe because it's so obvious even CNN is

calling it an AS lawfare that it does

nothing but add to the gravitas of

Trump's

complaint that this is so bogus that the

most respectable Republicans can show up

and sit there and they don't have to

did did the Republicans who

supported him have to tell any

lies no they simply had to describe what

they saw that's it very

safe so the fact that Trump has once

again figured out how to beat the media

by bringing in his strongest players

making them get time because you know

it's it's a the fact that they're there

at all is a show they got to cover the

show

yeah and this is one of the things I

always say about

Trump is if you don't understand the

show and the show is the whole show it's

like everything he does if you don't

understand the show you don't understand

anything and and this was this was a

brilliant scene within the larger show

the Trump show a brilliant scene

everything about this was right now I'm

going to say it again because every time

I say it I think it's

interesting the biggest story about

Trump's campaign so

far is that it's

Flawless how are we not talking about

that right cuz that wasn't true the

first camp pain you know he was a little

little uh little too edgy maybe although

probably got him elected you know the

more provocative he was it probably

added energy but at the moment he

doesn't need that he doesn't need he

doesn't need any scary

energy he's killing it I mean I've never

seen performance at this level and I

would

guess that whoever he's taking his

advice from and I could only speculate

about that but

keep doing it whoever is advising Trump

and again is Trump a dictator I doubt it

because this looks very much like he's

taking good advice doesn't it in your

opinion doesn't this look like Trump is

really well advised and taking the

advice it looks like that to me and

that's the president I want right I want

the president who if the if the experts

are acting crazy maybe ignores

but if they're nailing it you know he's

going to surf it I think he's he's

surfing I think he's surfing the uh V

wave and probably probably the other

folks as

well good advice keep it

up um and then MSNBC is trying to put

down some suppressive fire by saying

that everybody who works with Trump ends

up like Co and her

Pence imagine msbc and seeing these

three cats show up four of them Johnson

vake Donson and

Vance and and they've got to make them

act like they're clowns or something

they couldn't it's their strongest

people and so instead they say well you

know if all these strong people keep

defending Trump and they work for the

administration maybe they don't know

they'll end up like Cohen or they'll end

up like Pence do you know how you end up

like

Cohen there's only one

way it's acting like

Cohen Trump trump didn't turn Cohen into

Cowen he was already Cohen right you're

not going to see Byron Donaldson turn

into Michael

Cowen and and the Pence thing was a was

a a once ever one and done I mean really

the only problem that Pence had was how

he handled January 6 and I'm not even

sure who's wrong

I know you don't like it but um I've

always appreciated that Pence was trying

to figure out what was the right thing

to do now maybe you think he got it

wrong that time but I've never I've

never disrespected pets for taking a

stand maybe he got it wrong maybe he got

it right but I respect that he took he

took the hard stand I I'll always give

him that credit even if you don't like

it well uh Biden's out there again uh

after getting fact checked hard by the

media for claiming that uh inflation was

1.4% no that inflation was 9% when he

came in well it was more like 1.3 or

something and so it actually went up to

nine in his administration and now it's

down to three something but it's above

where it

was so he goes out and after getting

fact Jack hard he says the very same

thing the next day what would cause

that why would it be that knowing he

would get slapped down he would go out

and just say the same damn thing that

everybody just called a giant

lie well I have two possible

explanations number one it works because

the fact checking is only on the right

leaning networks it's not getting fact

checked probably anywhere else do you

think MSNBC is factchecking that

no I don't think so it it would be news

itself if they fact checked

it so he probably knows that because of

the media bubble that everybody's in he

could just keep saying it just just keep

claiming it until it sounds true now I

you know as you know Trump uses that

technique as

well so you

know sometimes it's just Hy hyperboy and

directionally true and if you repeat it

enough people think it's true so it

could be that he just knows that lying

works

the other possibility that I find more

tantalizing is that his staff has given

up and I think that's the

case I believe his advisers have

literally given up on him because I

think that behind the scenes they're

getting dementia uh tear

Downs here's what I think is happening

uh Mr President um about the thing you

said yesterday um I just want to give

you little fact check that uh the media

is treating that you know unkindly and

uh the facts don't really support what

you said so maybe maybe you could soften

that a little bit or kind kind of find a

different way to do it what do you think

he says to that I think he starts

dementia screaming oh get out of here oh

what are you trying to oh it really

really did go up oh and then after that

happens about three times and you look

the polls and you see he losing anyway

and there's probably no way to reverse

it do you say I'm going to go do that

again or do you say well screw him let

him go out and just kill himself I mean

not not literally but let him go out and

just sink in the

media look at the face of Tony blinkin

I'll talk about him in a moment look at

the face of grin John

Pierre they have they have the

capitulation face like there's something

happening they don't like and there's

nothing they can do about it it is all

over their faces and they both look like

they gave up so the other story is about

Tony blinkin over in

Kev and he announces that Kev is not or

Ukraine is not going to have elections

until the war is over which basically

means no

elections and then he goes and he he he

plays with the band he's playing guitar

and singing uh and people said that's a

terrible look to say there's going to be

no democracy and you're up there playing

your thing and and it was just a

terrible terrible look and I said to

myself do you think that Tony blinkin

would not be aware that that would be a

bad play he would obviously know it

would be filmed he would obviously know

it would be a story he would obviously

know it was the wrong choice

to look like he's all having a good time

in the war

zone it looks like capitulation to

me to me it looks like he knows the game

is over and maybe even the entire

illegal operation in Ukraine will be

revealed under a different

Administration he had the eyes of a

person who looks like he thinks he's

going to

jail now I can't read his

mind but look at his eye in the last

couple days and look at Karin jeene Jean

Pierre's eyes and her demeanor she looks

like she already was told she's

leaving because I have this Theory I

don't remember if I said this stop me if

I said this on the live stream yesterday

I may have SED on the man cave

separately

that if you're the campaign for Biden

and you know that your your uh your

candidate can't talk in public what are

you going to do well you'd better have

great

surrogates so Trump can't talk in public

because he's a gag he's gagged so he

brings

in the best communicators of all time

who happen to be

Republican Joe Biden can't talk in

public but he's got a problem his

spokesperson can't either so youve got a

spokesperson who can't talk in public

without embarrassing the party H talking

for somebody who can't talk in public

because he's he's just too gone don't

you think that the

campaign has been trying hard to replace

John uh Ken John Pier if they haven't

been trying to replace her they are not

doing their job because their only hope

is to get rid of her right away and

bring in a strong player who can

actually support Trump's or support

Biden's point of view without Biden

doing it and they got nobody to do that

now they got nothing

so I think her uh Ken John Pierre's

problem is from the the Biden campaign

that's my guess

yeah all right uh let's see what else

uh

so uh Biden has agreed to

debate he's agreed to two debates so

Biden says uh he was talking tough in

his little video saying he wants two

debates

was one in the end of June and one in

September end of June would get Trump

pass his his legal case that he's in and

the other ones are delayed so he

wouldn't have that trouble and

uh here's what you have to

say take a look at the video of Biden

saying he agrees to two debates and sort

of challenging Trump and watch how many

edits there are in the

video so I think he talks for 30 seconds

somebody said there are five video

edits I caught at least one do you know

what that

means it means they couldn't trust them

to read a teleprompter that was only 30

seconds long that they had to edit out

so many

mistakes that that it looked

like they're they're only like a week

away from doing like a one of these uh

black mail notes where you cut out the

cut out the letters from the newspaper

and paste them on the page I think

they're going to start taking individual

words that he's ever spoken and just put

them together with Clips until he's not

wearing the same outfit like look for

look for his clothes to change while

he's talking that's coming up it'll be

like the inflation is and then his

necktie will change to another another

one It'll like oh and Biden oh Trump oh

oh it's going to look like that so watch

for his necktie to change while he

talks all

right in the meantime oh well so here's

my prediction my prediction is he will

not

debate and that he will cancel the June

debate why why will he cancel the June

debate two possibilities number number

one oh oh look there's a fake pandemic

there there's an emergency I'm so busy

I'm so busy with my emergency that I

couldn't possibly debate because I got

to run this country it looks like

Russia's attacking Russia has upped its

attack on Ukraine well it wouldn't be

right for me to be debating when I got

to be managing this war situation so

it's either going to be I can't do

it the other possibility is he's going

to claim that Trump is asking for

something

unreasonable so let's say Trump says uh

Biden also said he only wants to do it

if it's moderated by uh Lefty entities

now he didn't say Lefty entities he

named the ones that have done it

recently you said it has to be one of

those and they were all left leaning

entities so what if Trump says how about

we do the June one with a you know at

least one right leaning entity and maybe

the September one was something else

something like

that that gives Biden the opportunity to

say well I guess you turned down to

debate didn't you I offered hey but you

you asked for those conditions and oh no

that's unreasonable why don't you do it

the way we always did it they were the

same entities that were in the primaries

nobody complained then so I guess you

just you're afraid to debate aren't

you or

yeah so there'll either be like reasons

that um or or it might be that uh he

doesn't want to give oxygen to Trump

because he's such a bad person like

something new will happen to new hoax oh

but based on the new hoax I can't even

give this this dictator white

supremacist any air uh so I'm going to

cancel because the public should not

shouldn't even hear him

talk let's see in the comments how many

of you think there will be a June debate

given that he couldn't do a 30- second

video about the

debate I think it's a trick I think he's

just buying

time and he could be buying time until

they replace him and he knows it's going

to

happen could be it could be

capitulation it could be that Biden kept

saying oh I can do it I can do it and

his staff knows he

can't but it could be that the staff

said if we can get him to do the debate

in June and he falls

apart we still have time to replace him

because it's before their

convention isn't it it's before the

convention

right oh give me give me a fact check in

that when is the DNC DNC convention is

when it's after that right is it before

or after it's after

yeah so it could be it could be a Hail

Mary by the staff so the campaign staff

might know full well that you can't

survive a debate and it might make the

polling you know 20 point difference or

something and that would give them the

juice to finally replace them yeah July

and August are the their conventions

okay yeah end of June is a

suspicious because it's uh it's

perfectly timed to replace him if he

fails so maybe that's the play because

that would look like capitulation as

well all right meanwhile the uh Trump

campaign has a new ad in which they're

saying that uh Biden is denying reality

about the economy acting like it's fine

and here's their framing they say is it

dishonesty or

dementia oh that's so

good is it dishonesty or

dementia because the trumpers know that

the public doesn't think the economy is

great you know inflation is high they

know that so if Trump if Trump gives

them two options well if you agree with

us that the economy is not as good as it

looks how do you you explain Biden

saying it looks

great two options

dishonesty or

dementia he either doesn't know the

difference or he's being dishonest do

you know what would have been a worse

way to go to say lying or

dementia lying wouldn't have landed as

well but

dishonesty dishonesty is wider isn't it

dishonesty gets all the way to Hunter

Biden and

Ukraine dishonesty is a much more clever

word in this context because if he just

said he lied what would people say they

say well Trump lies

too if you say he's

dishonest well now it's not as clean as

everybody

lies because it might be true that all

the politicians lie except for Thomas

Massie and Rand Paul Maybe um

but it's not necessarily true that we

think of them as thoroughly dishonest

because Trump will have been so

vetted that um if if if you have 91

indictments and none of them land it's

going to look like oh maybe maybe he

does tell some Whoppers but all the

politicians do but

dishonest dishonest is a different level

that's a very good choice of words for

the ad

all

right um Mike Ben

reports that uh apparently the

government of the United States uh did

some grants to some groups to study how

to censor Target groups without

triggering the Martyr

effect how to censor

Americans

Americans the government funded

grants to

study how to censor

Americans without the person being

centered knowing about

it just think about that now their claim

was that they were trying to get rid of

the the haze

speech you know the the bad stuff but of

course you know goes deeper than

that so the way they did it was they

discovered that if they if you simp

cancel the person at the top the person

who's making all the trouble they become

a martyr and they get

stronger

hello does that sound like something

that happened to me they made me a

martyr and I got

Stronger Yeah does it look like it

happened to Tucker they made him a

martyr and he got

stronger yeah yeah I don't know about

Alex Jones uh I I thought I heard that

Alex Jones is going to have to close INF

Wars because the the laware against them

is that true he's going to close it and

reconstitute it as something else

because it has to go

bankrupt yeah well there are some people

who definitely became less strong when

they got canceled but the idea was to go

after the people who boost them so that

they wouldn't know so they would just

censor the the lieutenants as Mike Ben

calls them the people below the

influence ERS because if there are

people with a million people in their

account who keep retweeting these same

influencers you can just stop the

million people

retweets and then it just looks like it

looks like people don't care when all it

is is you got rid of the

lieutenant that is a real thing that was

that is really happening in the United

States um you will see I'll tell you in

a few days about a book of mine that's

coming out that 20 years ago I predicted

this very thing I predicted a concept

called the prime influencer the idea

that you could use big data which is

what they're doing to identify who are

the influencers and it wouldn't be

obvious and that if you could turn off

the influencers you could basically

control

everything and that's what they're doing

exactly like my fictional book from 20

years ago and that ladies and gentlemen

is all I want to talk about today so I'm

going to say goodbye to the uh YouTube

and Rumble and ex audience I'm going to

stick with the subscribers here on

locals um where they get a lot more than

just the Dilbert comic a lot more and

I'll see you all tomorrow same place

same

time let's see if this
