I wish I were you so I could watch the show instead of doing the show. But doing the show is pretty fun too, I got to say.
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. Today with a whiteboard. If you'd like to take your experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or mug or glass, a tankard, chalice, a flagon, a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day, that thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.
Oh, that was really good. That was a good sip right there.
Well, good news. Good news. There's a revolutionary anti-aging therapy. According to SciTechDaily, researchers at Duke University School of Medicine, they figured out that interleukin-11 is very influential in your aging. So if they can disarm this interleukin-11, which they think they can do, you could live up to 25% longer. Now, good luck feeding you, but there'll be lots of you. Imagine if everybody just started living 25% longer. I feel like that would destroy civilization. Am I wrong about that? Be careful what you ask for. Yeah, how would you feed them all anyway?
X is going to make a change that if you block somebody, as I love to do, you'll still be able to see their content but they won't be able to interact with you, which works for me. Now, I don't know if you have this experience on X, those of you who use it, but there are lots of things that people repost and there'll be some message where I can't read it and it doesn't say unblocked. It says something like the user limits who can see their posts or something like that. I don't even know what causes that, but some large percentage of all the things that people send to me and say, "Hey, look at this," I can't look at. A large percentage, maybe 5%, but that's a lot. So maybe that'll go away.
You know the story about the Biden administration had that $42 billion set aside to build internet access to all the rural people, and time went by and nobody got hooked up. And you said to yourself, why? Why did nobody get hooked up? And I always thought to myself that the government funding of anything like this, whether it's a local city or national or state issue, I think that 100% of these are just corrupt. And here's what I assume. I assume that there are too many ways for a person in government to make money for themselves, even if it's just donations for the next race, by deciding who gets what contracts. Because if you've got billions of dollars to allocate, don't you just find the friendliest person you can and say, I got a deal for you. We're going to give you a few billion dollars to do this work. You'll be rich beyond any imagination, but I am going to come and ask for some favors in return. Perhaps you will make large donations to my campaign in the future. Perhaps somebody that's in my family who is starting a company might need an investment, and that has nothing to do with me. I mean, your investment arm might do whatever it wants to do and might actually like that business that my cousin is working on. So there are a million ways to do corrupt things with gigantic amounts of money that the government has to give to private citizens for various services.
I think our elected officials should not be in that business at all. I think you have to remove the elected officials from allocating large amounts of money. I'm okay with them making laws. You can still make laws because we can watch that happen. If we don't like it, we'll vote against you. But if you're moving gigantic amounts of money around in sketchy ways where we can't really know if you really picked somebody who is your brother-in-law, you can't always know. None of that works. If you were to write down that system on paper, say, all right, I'm going to design the system. Here's the system. We're going to have billions of dollars sloshing around with nobody watching carefully, and we'll have our elected officials decide who wins the bids. Who in the world would say that was a good idea?
The only thing I can think of for how we got to this place is that when the founders who built the system, there just wasn't that much money floating around. So it wasn't like there were billions of dollars floating around and it would be easy to make sure that you got a taste of it. So maybe they just didn't think about it, and you could tell where the money was being spent just by looking. Maybe it was just a simpler time. But I think we somehow have to get out of our system entirely that the people in charge get to make the decisions.
So what are some of the problems? Well, some of the problems is they would spend too much and there would be corruption. Those are the obvious problems. You want to hear another problem? Well, according to several people, including Commissioner Brendan Carr at the FCC, he said this was the worst abuse of agency process I have seen in my 12 years of working at the FCC. So I think the short version of this is that the reason things were held up so long to get that funding out and have it spent so people could get internet in rural areas is that they were kind of waiting for their preferred Democrat vendor to be ready to take the deal. So I don't know the full details, but it looks like it's exactly what you thought it was. It wasn't incompetence. It was waiting till they could give the money to their preferred person. So that's what it looks like.
So imagine the choices that the government had. They could spend far less money and be ready immediately just by using Elon Musk's product. But that would be giving these spare billions of dollars that the government has sitting around to the person who might spend them against them, because Elon Musk might be, if he has extra money, maybe some of that's funding Republican-related stuff. So at all expense, no matter what happened to the citizens who needed that internet, the Democrats were still willing to completely embarrass themselves and do this criminality, I call it criminal, right in front of the whole country, as long as it was good for them. And then they did. And then people complained. And then what did the public say? Did the public rise up and say, well, I'm trying to feed my family today, but now you've brought up this issue about the FCC's inefficient and possible corrupt allocation of bids? No, you don't care about that. You'd have to be in the top 1% of 1% of people who follow the news even to care about that story, because you know I got 50 stories that are at least as interesting. So we don't have a system that even when this is uncovered and made public and it's in the news, nothing can really be done about it because there's no correcting system. Normally the correcting system would be you publish it, you expose it, and then somebody's going to have to make a correction. Nothing like that's happening. There's a story, there's an exposure, seems pretty clear and obvious, and I don't even think there's any doubt about what happened. I'm not even sure anybody's arguing the narrative here, and it's just complicated and it's one of many things, so we're just going to ignore it. So that's our system.
Anyway, I would say that one thing we need more than just about anything, it's destroying all of our cities, is that the decision of who gets the contracts cannot be the elected officials. They just can't have it. They can't touch it. They need to be a full, you know, what do we used to call a Chinese wall? I hope that's referring to the Great Wall of China and not some racist trope that I don't know. I just used it. Is it racist to say a Chinese wall? I don't know. You can't say the virus came from a Chinese lab anyway.
So here's another story about our system. So according to Phys.org, there are some robots. They got some robots that are measuring the temperature of the deep ocean, and it's the Deep Argo floats. And they went in and they collected a bunch of data about the ocean, and then they compared it to other temperature stuff that they did without these robots, so surface temperatures and other measures. And they decided that the ocean is getting warmer. What do you think I'm going to say about this story? Do you know me well enough by now? Let me just say the most confident thing I could ever say. We can't measure the temperature of the ocean. You all know that, right?
So here's a story telling us that they've got this robot. It's measuring the temperature of the ocean. Well, I'm sure it got data, and I don't even doubt the accuracy of its measurement devices. But how much of the ocean do you think they measured? I mean, just ask yourself, how much did they measure? And I don't know if you know this. This may come as a shock to you, but the ocean doesn't have walls. I mean, you know, out in the middle of the ocean there are no walls. It turns out that the warmth where you measured it, the moment you're done measuring it, it can kind of move over somewhere else where maybe it wasn't so warm before. No, if you know anything about the real world and you've lived in it for five minutes, you know you can't measure accurately enough the temperature of the ocean. I'm sorry. That's not a doable thing that a human being can do with current technology. Could we do it someday? One could imagine that. One could imagine a million drones that periodically drop temperature measurements into a million different places chosen randomly, and they do it on a regular basis, and then we track it for 30 years. That might be pretty good. I don't know, but that might be pretty good. Do you think we're doing that? Do you think we're putting a million drones down every other day in random places? No, no, we're not. We're dropping a robot in the ocean and then trying to tell people who were probably in charge of funding it that it was all very successful and they should be very happy they spent their money measuring the temperature of the ocean.
Do you remember when you used to believe stuff like that, when somebody would tell you, yeah, we measured the ocean, and you thought, huh, good job. I wouldn't know how to do it myself, but I'm glad you're out there just killing it and measuring the temperature of the ocean. No, don't believe that.
Meanwhile, RFK Jr. is saying that this is a great, just a great way to put something. I tell you, RFK Jr. is, I don't know how much comes all from him and how much he has help with speechwriting and messaging, but damn, he's good. So good. Listen to this one quote: For half the price of Ozempic, we could purchase organic food for every American, three meals a day, and gym memberships for every obese American. Now, there are probably a million different ways to say the message he was saying, but somehow he picked the best one. This is really good to immediately just put that Ozempic thing because it's in the news, right? So if you pick anything that's already on people's minds, you're automatically good messaging because you're not making them think of something. You're finding something they're already thinking about. That's a key to good messaging and persuasion. Find something they're already thinking about, and then you've got something to tie your messaging to.
So that's what he did. And now you might say, is that true? You could purchase organic food three meals a day for every American for half the price of Ozempic? I don't know. Who knows? I don't even know if you could calculate such a thing. But doesn't it make you want to think about it a little while? It makes you pause. You go, really? Well, how much do we spend on Ozempic? And so half of that, would that really buy all that food? And how much is a gym membership anyway? So it doesn't matter that it's exactly, you know, those numbers match exactly. What does matter, of course, is is it directionally correct? Yes, it is. Yes, it would be great if we didn't have to stick a drug in us to be healthy, if we just ate better and exercised. And he points out that even the Danish government doesn't recommend Ozempic. It recommends a change in diet and exercise. So he says it's a Danish company, by the way. So it's a Danish company that makes Ozempic, but the country it comes from doesn't recommend it. But we're not Danish, and it's not a Danish company, and we're just sucking that in like crazy. And Kennedy says, why are members of Congress doing the bidding of the Danish company instead of standing up for farmers and children? Very good question. Very good question.
Related to this is, could vertical farming help us? Vertical farming is indoor farming where instead of just having a row of stuff on the ground, you build a wall and the full wall is full of plants, and then you can use the space more efficiently. But there are some thoughts, according to a SkyMech publication, that if you kept fiddling with the light and the water and the nutrients and the spacing and all that stuff, if you just kept fiddling with it, you would just keep getting better at it until this was a real big part of our food system. Now, remember, if you do a vertical farm, an indoor farm, it can be placed close to the people who consume it. So you take away all the storage and all the shipment costs, and energy costs are high. And then apparently you can do things with regulating the light so you save a bunch of money on light by not using all the light right away and stuff like that.
So here's what I think. I think you could easily imagine that an industry will pop up where first of all all the vertical farming components are just easy to buy and there's competition. So you need some kind of racks or shelving to get the height. Somebody probably already is just making those, and you just say, okay, I'll buy these and put them in my farm. Likewise, there have been a number of developments with light, you know, indoor artificial light to get just the right frequency and stuff like that. And I've also seen stories about people using music and vibrations to make their plants 10 times bigger. So I feel like this is a little bit like indoor farming is sort of the Model T of automobiles, where if you looked at the Model T, you'd say to yourself, I'm not so sure everybody's going to want one of these. You know, if it rains, you're going to get wet. What good is an automobile if you get wet when it rains? Nobody is going to buy these Model Ts. But of course they got better every year and they continued to get better. So I think vertical farming is the future.
Let's talk about Diddy. You all know the Diddy story, but what is interesting to me is how many probably innocent people are getting dragged into this story. Now, I'm going to mention some names of celebrities, but I want to be very careful that my context is telling you that they're innocent, right? They're going to be dragged into this Diddy stuff, but they're innocent until they're proven guilty. And as far as I know, they're not proven guilty of anything. So I'm going to call them all innocent, and you better bring me some good information to change my mind. But it seems like when you have a story like this where there's sort of a, let's call it a black box of badness where you don't know exactly what happened behind closed doors, you can kind of throw everybody into it.
So now we have, let's see, Mayor Adams of New York City. So one of the rumors today is that he knew too much or he has some connection with the Diddy stuff or blackmail or something. There's no evidence of that. None. It's just that he's a public figure. He's having some legal issues. It's around the same time. Then there was a whole bunch of music executives who suddenly announced their resignation right after the Diddy thing broke. So people saying, well, that's a lot of coincidental people leaving the business just at the time. Could it be related, or is it just because it's the end of the year and that's when people like to retire anyway? I don't know, but innocent until proven guilty.
Poor Justin Bieber. He would be a victim if anything, but we don't know what did or did not happen. I worry the most about him because the circumstantial evidence looks pretty damning, but I think we have to wait to hear from him. He may now have the freedom to actually say what happened, whereas obviously he didn't have the freedom before. So we might find out a lot from Justin, and I hope he was not as victimized as people are speculating.
Then there was this star Aaron Carter. I hope I have the right name. He was a young, sort of a Bieber kind of a young fellow who was also part of that Diddy world, and he allegedly died young. And some people are saying, well, was it, did he really die or was he murdered? I'm not making any assumptions here. Again, I'm just telling you that people are being dragged into the story who some number of them probably had nothing to do with anything.
There's a whole bunch of Ashton Kutcher stories. Apparently I didn't know this, but there's a well-known story where Ashton Kutcher earlier in his career was going on a date with somebody he had not yet met in person, I think, and he went to pick her up and she didn't answer the door. And later it was found that she had been stabbed to death 47 times. So she was inside. She was just dead by the time he got to his date, and he'd been talking to her during the night. Now, I have no reason to believe he was in any way involved with any bad behavior. However, how many of you have had the experience of becoming a TV and movie star but also showed up at somebody's house when they were slain? That's just a weird coincidence, isn't it? Like, how many stories that are different from every story anybody else would tell does Ashton Kutcher have? You know, then he becomes a successful investor separately. Interesting anyway.
Ashton, of course, he was one of the ones who stayed at Diddy's house. Now we're seeing old videos of him talking about it in generic terms, but now it doesn't look so generic. And you think, oh my God, they were trying to tell us. But again, I'm not going to assume that anybody did anything or had anything done to them. We don't know yet.
Even then, I saw today, even I'm not going to name who, even mentioned this, but today Monica Lewinsky was thrown into the mix. Now this is the one I believe the least, but the suggestion is that during the time, if you know the Epstein, if you know that Epstein was a blackmailer, and you know that Monica, somebody said she's Jewish, which shouldn't mean anything. I think that's confirmed because she dated Jake Tapper and they met on a JDate or Jewish website dating site. So that doesn't mean she's working for Mossad and it doesn't mean she was co-opted by Epstein or any of that. It's just that she gets dragged into the story because she's a public figure and we don't know everything that happened in that situation. So I would say the odds of her being an Israeli spy, low. I'm not ready to be interested in that story. But my story is about how people are getting dragged into it. So she got dragged into it a little bit today.
LeBron James, I guess he was pretty tight with Diddy. So lots of rumors about LeBron. Again, I'm not aware of anything he did illegal or even knew about, so we don't know. And then all of this brought Kanye back in the news because now the things that Kanye said that sounded crazy, when you listen to them again through the lens of knowing what actually happened, it's a little less crazy. I'm not ready to say that everything Kanye said is true, and he had his issues with the Jewish people he's working with. I'm not going to endorse it or say anything about that. That's his business. But everybody's getting dragged in. Makes you wonder.
And then 50 Cent, you know, he seems to be the most innocent because from early on he was saying things showing that he's not part of that. But he also said that he was on a, I saw in a talk show, I don't know how long ago, it looked reasonably recent, that he said he's celibate and by choice because it's just basically causes problems when you're not. Do you believe that? Do you believe the 50 Cent who could probably have as much sex as he wanted every day, as much, you know, all day long, decided not to have any? I don't know. It could be that he's pranking. He could be pranking, but it might be true. It might be true.
Anyway, Trump went to a grocery store and I think he bought some groceries for somebody. It was mentioned that I had suggested he go to a grocery store and bag groceries. I wish he had bagged groceries because the visual of him chatting with a real person, you know, while they're both standing there and he's deciding what goes in the bottom of the bag and how many bags you need, to me that would just be magic. So it was a good play going to where there are real people and where the story naturally is about inflation because he's in the grocery store. Same thing with pumping gas. You know, there are a couple states where you can pump gas. I would still love to see somebody drive up to the pump in one of those states, I think New Jersey and Oregon or something, I can't remember which states, and just have Trump walk out and give you gas and then chat with you about the price of gas. I would love that. It would just be so natural because every time, I don't know if you noticed this, but 100% of the time that Trump talks in public, the anti-Trump press will find something to take out of context and some reason to not like it. But every time Trump talks to citizens, it's a home run. And you know, I'm pro this because I was lucky enough, I've told you too many times, that I spent some time with him at the White House in 2018 when he was just, I think he was just shoring up support among the people that he knew supported him. And spending time with him is the easiest, most fun thing you'll ever do in your life. To me it was a highlight of really my whole life. He is so good, so good on the individual charisma human interaction level that the more he does of that, it's just magic. So this was a good play.
All right, let's talk about propaganda, which you call news. So Anderson Cooper and James Carville, and listen to some of the things that Cooper says. When you think that he's having somebody on to get some news from the person he's talking to, but you find out that the person he's talking to is irrelevant because he's making the news by his statements. In other words, he's using the interview just to spread propaganda. This is my interpretation. So here's something that Cooper said to Carville on the air. Quote, when you look at the last couple of months, you have Donald Trump talking about Haitians eating cats and dogs, his candidate in North Carolina talking about himself as a black Nazi on a porn site. He brought a 9/11 conspiracy theorist to a 9/11 memorial ceremony. And then he says to Carville, why do you think it's this close? Now that sounds a little like payback because this is what I've been saying. So almost every day I tell you something that's so ridiculously absurd coming out of the Harris campaign, and I always end with, and the polls are tied. Because to me it's hilarious that you could have somebody who is afraid to appear in public, who's running for president, who has no accomplishments whatsoever, is part of the administration that everybody thinks failed, and that is close. And we know exactly what Trump did in the first term. And if you were to compare that to what has happened recently, it's, I don't think it's close. One was anti-war, one was pro-war. I mean, to me it doesn't look close. But can you tell that the way Cooper phrased the question that it was never about the question? It was about him saying that Trump is so bad that why doesn't the public see it yet when we, the news, keep telling them? Here I'm the news. I'm telling you. I'm telling you he's bad. Why don't you vote differently? Yeah, that was no news value. No news value, nor could there have possibly been any news value. There wasn't even any potential for news value. It was pure propaganda in which the person who was the guest, in this case Carville, was really a prop. He wasn't even part of the process. He was just a prop.
Now, what is Carville most famous for? He's most famous for helping Clinton originally get elected and for using the phrase "It's the economy, stupid." So he was the smart one who said people care about buying groceries. If you keep it to that, you're going to win. And then Clinton did. Do you hear Carville say that anymore? Do you hear Carville say "It's the economy, stupid"? Do you think it stopped being about the economy when the economy is actually more important to people now than maybe just about any time except the Great Depression? No. Carville can't even say the thing that made him famous. Just think about that. When they bring on the "worse than Watergate" guys, I always joke about that. They make sure that the "worse than Watergate" guys say something was worse than Watergate. But when Trump said he wants to eat a cat, was that worse than Watergate? Oh, that's worse than Watergate. So much worse than Watergate. But you bring on Carville, who is the famous "It's the economy, stupid," but he can't say that. Do you know why? Do you know why Carville can't say "It's the economy, stupid"? Because it's the economy, stupid. He can't say it because it's true. Just hold that in your mind. He can't say it because it's true. And Trump dominates in the public's mind about who would do a better job on the economy. So the moment you put Carville on the air and then Carville says what made him famous, which was always true and remains maybe even more true today, nope, can't say it because it's true.
So then here's the second Anderson Cooper propaganda thing. And what you should watch for is how the question is the only thing with substance, and then the guest that he has on adds absolutely nothing. Right? Here's what happens. So Cooper starts out with stating what he would consider an obvious truth, I guess. So he stated it like, you know, everybody knows this. So here's the thing that everybody knows that propagandist Cooper told his dumb viewers. He said that obviously hand counting would have more errors. Does that track with what you know, that hand counting would have more errors than machine counting? The entire reason that this was talking about, Georgia just changed the law so that in Georgia the ballots will have to be hand counted. They're not going to use machines for that. So this, of course, if it's true that Georgia was massively cheating using the complexity of their various systems, then the hand counting would eliminate their ability to do that. Why would a news organization be opposed to somebody getting rid of all the complexity that lowered the credibility of the result and putting in the system that everybody who knows anything about elections thinks is the better system? The paper ballots, especially when you have somebody watching you count them. Let me ask you this. If you've got a Democrat and a Republican watching every ballot get counted, which is how you should do it, how many mistakes are you going to make? Is the watcher going to go to the bathroom or something? I don't know. And then if you don't get the right answer, you can always just count it again. So you have a perfect audit because you just recount it. You can't do that with the current system.
So first Cooper says it's sort of obvious that hand counting is bad. That is the opposite from true, but he stated it like it doesn't even need to be discussed. It's just, you know, everybody could tell hand counting. I mean, really, how are you going to compare like a stupid human to a computer? Obviously the computer is going to be better at math. I mean, seriously, right? No, the hand counting is by far the more reliable system, and that's why it's used. It's used specifically because it's more reliable. That's the only reason. Anyway, maybe because it's cheaper in some cases.
So then the guest who is there to add value said stuff like blah blah blah, they're trying to carry Trump's water, they ankle biters, conspiracy theories, they're basically MAGA. This. He didn't have anything on the topic. Nothing. He didn't say, well, the studies have shown that this is a bad idea. Nope. Well, here's the logical reason why this can't work. Nope. He simply insulted Republicans. He was a guest to talk about this technical issue of ballots versus machines and all he had was some insults to Republicans. He didn't even try to offer a reason why anything was better or worse or preferred. And then Cooper ends the segment by reminding the audience that we do know the 2020 election was fair and everything was fine, which is a lie because we don't have a system that could be audited completely, and therefore there is no way to know it was fair. We can only know that nobody proved in the court that it was unfair in time. So one lie that hand counting is unreliable, and then he ends it with knowing that we know for sure that which cannot be known, which is the quality of the prior election. Can't be known. There's no way to know it. The only thing he could have done to make it dumber is to say our elections are as accurate as our ability to use a robot to measure the temperature of the entire ocean. Should have thrown that in there.
Well, what is the most ignored story of 2024 that also was the most important? Well, here's my nomination. Now, I think this is all true, so I have to say that first. It could be ignored because maybe I have something wrong. Maybe it's not true, but I think it's true. I saw the documents. I didn't see anybody just debunk them. So the claim is, and you see this in a bunch of places, but the claim is that we now know in writing because we have the document that Trump gave clear instructions to the Pentagon before the January 6 riots that he wanted to make sure that they were fully staffed and they had all the defensive military assets they needed and they were all ready to go so that there was no violence that day. Now, that one fact, if that's true, completely eliminates the entire Democrat reason for running against Trump. Their main thing is that January 6 proved that he's an insurrectionist, and now we have written proof, written. We have the documents to show that he absolutely was trying to make sure that there was no violence. How exactly was he going to take over the country with troops that were not loyal to him? I mean, they were loyal to their senior officers, and they were there to protect the Capitol from his people. In what way do any of the narratives make sense about it was some kind of an insurrection?
Now, I should be clear that, and so my main point is this is the most ignored story of 2024. Two questions for you, my audience. Is this true? Is this story true that we do know for sure that Trump was trying to organize and put effort into it and that the help was denied by maybe Milley because of optics when it came down to it? So if this is true, everything we've been told about January 6 is a lie. And also the January 6 commission, if they were aware of this and they left it out of the report, they all need to be in jail. Is that too far? The January 6 commission, if they knew this fact, they knew that this document exists and they didn't include it in the process, they need to be in jail. In jail, like seriously, they need to be in jail like right away because that would be one of the biggest crimes I've ever seen in the history of the United States, non-financial crime. It would be the biggest one, you know, not counting something that's violent, hurts people. Although in a sense this was, this did hurt people. You could argue that not giving Trump that military assistance was the reason people died. So I guess you did kill people through this political process. So yes, to me that looks like election interference by the J6 committee, and I think they should be charged and jailed for that. And I really think they should be jailed for that. You know, I'm not a fan of using lawfare to go after your other side. So there's a lot of things that may or may not have been said or done by, let's say, Harris or Biden that even if they look pretty illegal, I feel like we'd all be better off if maybe we just moved on and tried to make sure it doesn't happen in the future, whatever it is. But the committee, the J6 committee, I don't give them the same kind of analysis. To me they just look like criminals. That's what I see. I think they should be in jail anyway.
Jim Acosta on CNN had to confess that the latest New York Times poll said that Kamala Harris's support among Latino voters in Arizona is down 11% since last month. But then he added this. This is Jim Acosta on CNN. Quote, if you believe this New York Times poll. So they get a poll they don't like and then he adds, if you believe it. Wouldn't you have to add that for every poll? It seems like you should say that for every single poll if you believe that, but only the ones I don't like, I guess.
You've probably heard that the attempted assassin, the second one on the golf course, that Ryan Routh guy, he wrote a letter. I don't know when he wrote this, maybe after he got jailed, admitting he failed in trying to kill Trump, but he offered a $150,000 reward to someone who could finish the job. And then our Department of Justice decided that you should see that letter. Why? Why did we really need to see that? Because you could argue that if you think we should see anything, well, maybe we should see everything. Like everything, you know, like show us right away as soon as you know. But we know they don't do that. We know that when it's an ongoing investigation that they hold the facts back as long as possible. But why would they publish this when it obviously seems like it creates danger for the president? Well, to me it looks like the reason was to create danger for the president. Now, I don't know that. I can't read any minds. But I don't really know the second possibility. Like what would be the other reason for doing it? Wouldn't every one of you have considered this inappropriate to put in public if you got the job tomorrow of being in charge of whether somebody saw that letter or not? Wouldn't you suppress it? Because I don't know what news value it had other than bringing up the idea that somebody could get a payday.
Well, related to that, you probably heard that Matt Gaetz is talking about, apparently we know there are five assassination teams in the United States now. Where he gets that, I don't know, but I do think that he doesn't make it up. So I think he's got some inside knowledge about that. And if there are five teams, and allegedly one of them is a Ukrainian-based team, shouldn't we stop all funding to Ukraine if we have information that a Ukrainian assassination team is on American soil or some of them? Shouldn't we immediately stop funding if we knew it? If it came from the government, I can't imagine it wouldn't come from the government.
And then we have the interesting connection that that Routh guy, the second attempted assassin, spent a bunch of time in Ukraine. It was pro-Ukraine and was trying to do everything to help Ukraine, and would imagine that taking out Trump would help Ukraine. So the question that Gaetz asks, which is a good question, is this guy couldn't possibly have been operating alone. And if we know there's a Ukrainian hit team, do we have everything we need to know? I mean, it's not confirmation, but if anyone was on a Ukrainian hit team, it would have been this guy. Because if you're a smart Ukrainian hit team, you don't use a Ukrainian to hit the president. If a Ukrainian pulled the trigger, things aren't going to go well for Ukraine. You all know that, right? And Ukraine would know that. So same with Iran. If there's an Iranian hit team, the last thing they want to do is be the Iranians that pull the trigger. That's not going to happen. So we've got two cases of people who got spun up rather quickly to be attempted assassins. I wouldn't be surprised if Crooks was influenced by Iran and Routh was influenced by Ukraine or some factors within Ukraine, not necessarily Zelensky, but can't rule it out. So there's that.
The National Pulse points out that the Washington Post is trying to remind us that it would be totally normal on Election Day if Trump is way ahead when you go to sleep, but then all those mail-in ballots get counted and then suddenly Biden comes from behind. So just like last election, we're being told that the normal, most credible thing in the world is for a last-minute dump of Biden votes. That feels exactly like we're being set up for a steal. In fact, I don't even have a second way to think about it now. You could imagine that if it were all legitimate, they'd still need to say it to make sure that you didn't think it was illegitimate. But man, we are at such a low-trust point in civilization that when somebody does something that's so obviously could have that other meaning, you know, maybe not the positive meaning, I just, I'm so biased toward, well, that looks like you're setting us up for a steal. I don't know it, but every part of my body feels like that's what happened. So that's not ideal.
Then in other news, Trump joked that he has a person, what he called a personality defect. He says, I don't like anybody that doesn't like me. Now he is so good at making news with little things that don't matter. Like almost any time he words things, it's just perfect writing. This is so, it's hard, so hard to look away because on one hand he didn't say anything because you and I have the same feeling, right? How many of you love the people who think you're not? Most of us mostly we like people who like us. I know I do. If somebody likes me, you'd have a hard time talking me into not liking you, that's for sure. But if you don't like me, you think I'm going to say, you know, this person doesn't like me but I think they're awesome? There are some situations in which I do that. There are some cases where people hate me but it's not returned because I think they hate me for reasons that, you know, they're just confused. If they actually knew real facts and still hated me, they're not my friend. But if they've been brainwashed by somebody, I take that into consideration. But anyway, I think he's just like the rest of us, but he says it in a more provocative way.
Meanwhile in Arizona there was this Democrat campaign office that somebody shot up. So just a few bullets. Nobody was there. And I think that whoever shot it could tell that nobody was there. Maybe it was at night or something. But isn't that convenient that just when the conversation is, hey, you Democrats keep saying things that get our president shot at, and they don't have a good answer for it because it doesn't seem equivalent in both directions. And then, oh, a mysterious person shoots at a Democrat office in Arizona. Huh. Well, certainly we can add that to our narrative to say that the rhetoric coming from the right is so bad that there's some right-wing lunatic, probably a white supremacist, who grabbed his gun, way too many guns as you've been told by the Democrats, went down to that office and tried to kill some Democrats. And weren't they lucky that none of them were in the office at that time? Does this feel like a real story to you or does it sound like it's a little too on the nose? As in it's the perfect story at the perfect time with no victims. That's a little convenient. It's a little bit too convenient. Now, I can't rule out the fact that there was just a crazy person with a gun who doesn't like Democrats, wasn't trying to hurt anybody but was just being a dick and thought, I'm going to put a couple of bullets through their building just to show him I hate him. No, I can see that. So I'm not saying it's not. I'm not saying it's impossible that some Republican thought, ain't nobody's home, I'm going to put a couple of bullets in their house. I'm not in favor of that, in case you couldn't tell. But it's just a little too close. It's just a little too perfectly timed, perfectly the narrative that the Democrats want. Sorry, I'm not going to buy it. I'm not going to rule out the possibility that was exactly what it looks like, some Republican wanted to cause some trouble, but I'm not going to buy it. You're going to have to give me a lot more to make me believe this story.
All right. Meanwhile, Putin is allegedly quoted saying that he accused Western elites of cannibalism, claiming that they have grown used to filling their bellies with human flesh and their pockets with money. He further warned that this is a cabal of vampires nearing its end. Now, cannibalism, I think he's gone too far, don't you? I mean, we don't actually have cannibalism. I mean, somebody blamed the Haitians, but you know, there's no evidence of anything like that. But are we getting closer to it? Let's go to the whiteboard and find out. Are there any forces in the United States that are moving us toward cannibalism? Let's say the price of groceries is high and people's ability to afford them is worse at the same time that people in general are getting shittier. And at least the Democrats don't care how many Republicans die, and probably is the same on the other side for some people. Now, I think we're probably about here. We're halfway to cannibalism. So if the food continues to get more expensive and your fellow humans continue to suck even more than they do now, you won't mind eating a few to save money on groceries. So I'm going to debunk Putin. We do not have people eating cannibal. We do not have the elite eating people in this country as far as I know. But we're heading that way. We're heading that way anyway.
Congress has this bipartisan plan they're promoting to figure out how we could quickly adjust if there's a mass attack on Congress and a bunch of our leaders get killed at the same time. Huh. What would make that so important lately? Hasn't that been something that would have been important from the moment the atomic bomb was invented? Why is it suddenly in the news and suddenly has bipartisan support? Well, maybe it's just this is when enough people wanted to do it, so it could be just natural. Maybe this is the time. But I love this comment by Liz Crokin on X who said on this story, if every member of Congress who is guilty of crimes related to pedophilia, sex trafficking, and or treason was charged, it would not only wipe out most of Congress, it would wipe out many of the government's employees. Maybe the mass casualty event they're preparing for is justice. Do you think it's possible that the Diddy situation goes so deep that it could take out like a quarter of Congress or something? I'm going to say no. I don't think that's a risk. But is there something that Congress knows that we don't? Could it be the swarms of drones or making it possible for somebody to take out big parts of Congress? Could there be some credible stories that maybe somebody has a weapon of mass destruction already in the country? What are we not being told?
All right. There's a plan, according to New Scientist, there's a plan to refreeze some of the Arctic ice. You know, the climate change people are concerned that the ice is melting and then the water will go up too high. And so they figured out a way. They're testing it. So they'll pump some seawater, and I guess they'll pump it back onto the ice and it will kind of quickly freeze, and then they'll build up the ice so that the ice melting is compensated by the amount of water they're putting back. And does that make sense? Scott is so naive. Let me just make a comment to those who are in the comments at the moment. You don't need to tell me that some of our leaders are puppets. If I don't mention it every time I mention them, it doesn't mean I'm not aware that there are many forces behind the leaders who are the ones in charge. So you don't need to be a and just say Scott is naive, he does not understand that they are puppets. No, I'm just not going to say it every time I mention their name, okay? If you're new to this, maybe this will be a surprise to you. But if you've been watching me for a while, there's nothing I say more often than we don't know who's making the decisions. So just stop being a dick for half a second. Try to add something to the world instead of being worthless like you are now. Thank you. At least come up with some real thing. Just not some he's naive. Scott, the one that bothers me the most is Scott needs to learn from me and take a half-day class in everything about chemical something. No, I don't. No, I don't. You're just being a dick. So just stop being a dick. If there's something you think I should know, put it in the comments. If you know something, you could do that. If you don't know anything, you can't put it in the comments, and you can just say, oh, Scott is so naive. He's so naive. He does not understand the things that I know because I know things. I read a story once.
All right. So anyway, there's a plan to refreeze the ice. Meanwhile, according to Real Climate Science, there's a record increase in ice in September. So one story is we've got to figure out how to make more ice. The other story is my God, there's a lot of ice being made in the first three weeks of September. Now, it has been going down, the amount of ice. So September is an outlier, so you can't make any judgments about one month. But Mexico, this will seem like an unrelated story, but watch me tie it all together. So Mexico is building an alternative to the Panama Canal. So it's going to be a land route across a thin part of Mexico so you could unload your boats onto, I guess, trains, and then the trains would take it to the other side. And if they can get the economics right and build this thing, they can compete with the Panama Canal. Now you might say, but why not just use the Panama Canal? What's wrong with the Panama Canal? Well, there are a few problems with the Panama Canal at the moment. Number one, there are a lot of ships that want to go through, so you know, there's just congestion. Number two, the Panama Canal is not as efficient as it used to be because the water levels are too low. Wait, what? So in the real world, the Panama Canal, which is all about the ocean, I don't think they're pumping in the water from a lake, are they? When they do the canal, what do you call those things, the little things that fill up with water so you can raise the ship? I forget what the locks. Are you telling me that down in Panama they're running out of sea? The water level is too low for the Panama Canal to work well? What happened to all that ice that melted? You know, one of the things I think about the ocean is that once the water gets in there, you can't really stop where it goes again. No walls in the ocean. Now, I do understand that there are other factors that can make the sea level change. For example, you know, the moon's position and if it's warmer in some places, the warmth itself makes everything larger, including the water volume, I guess. So there are other factors besides just the melting ice. But it is kind of interesting that somebody's spending a lot of money to figure out how to create more ice at the same month that we have a record amount of ice and Mexico is complaining about not enough ice has melted to give them water in the ocean. I guess I added the ice part. They didn't complain about that anyway.
Attorney Jeff Clark, who was one of President Trump's lawyers during the January 6 era, is pointing out that there's no evidence that Kamala Harris has ever tried a case like in court. Now, she was the boss of some cases that happened because it was her job to be the DA, but there's no evidence that she ever tried a case. Now, that doesn't mean she didn't, but Jeff Clark said it in public and invited people to prove him wrong, and nobody did. So there's actually no evidence she's ever prosecuted anyone in court herself. She was the boss when somebody did it.
Andrew Cuomo, you remember him, once the governor of New York but then disgraced by MeToo-isms. And by the way, when I say disgraced, since I call myself disgraced, I'm just using it ironically anyway. He said in a speech recently that, quote, "Defund the police was the dumbest words ever uttered." He said that in Brooklyn. So it's good to know that Kamala Harris's idea, one of the things she's famous for saying, is according to one of the most prominent and smartest Republicans the dumbest words ever uttered.
So I think we're seeing more people crossing over their party this time than ever before, aren't we? Because the Democrats do in fact have a whole bunch of former Republicans who are endorsing Harris, mostly just anti-Trumpers. And now we see, I feel like there's a whole bunch of people who had at one point identified as a Democrat who switched over. I've never seen so much switching. A whole bunch of switching. What's that about? Do you think that's just the general people wising up that their own team is lying to them so maybe the other team is lying less? I'm not sure what that's about, but it probably has mostly to do with Trump being unusually provocative.
Meanwhile, according to Just the News, Noem was bragging that some new crime stats came out, and he said in a post new violent crime dropped across America last year and said can't wait to see the Fox News coverage of this. Well, maybe you shouldn't be so happy about how they're going to cover this because it turns out, according to Just the News, that that was for the country. It wasn't for California. So property crime did decline even in California, but violent crime is up 3.6%, and the value of cars stolen in California was over $2 billion last year. Do you know how much that is? $2 billion worth of automobiles were stolen in one year in one state. $2 billion. So I had to take measures to make sure my car didn't get stolen. Never had to do that before. Now it turns out that a large portion of the increase in violent crime was in one county. There was one county. What was it about this one county that was different? Has a famous Soros-funded prosecutor who is the subject of a recall movement. I don't know if it worked. So the Soros prosecutor comes in, and then my county, this is where I live by the way, this is my county. So my county went from just about the safest place you could ever be, at least in my portion of it because I think it includes Oakland which is the least safe, but where I live I chose it because it was the safest place I could go. And at the time I could go anywhere I wanted. Well, I mean I had reasons to be in Pleasanton, but so it turns out that Soros has destroyed my county with his funded prosecutor, and it's such a big effect that it's affecting the stats in California and might even affect the national race. Because if people are saying that the Soros prosecutors and the Democrats are causing this, they're going to vote accordingly. So the Soros prosecutor in my county might be enough to get Trump elected basically.
Well, speaking of getting elected, Scott Presler, who has been registering people to vote like crazy and focused on Pennsylvania because that's the, everybody says is the most important state. Whoever wins that will probably win the election. Not for sure, but it seems to be a key state or the key state. And he says that as of yesterday he flipped Luzerne County in Pennsylvania by flipped meaning that more registered voters are Republican than Democrat. Now that's a really big deal. It could be that Scott Presler is the one who decided who got elected. Isn't that weird? You always hear this one person can't make a difference thing. Really? Scott Presler may have just won the election for Trump and saved the world. He may have just done this by himself. I mean he got lots of people to help, but they wouldn't have been helping if he had not been the organizer and the force of nature that he is. So can one person change the world? He may have. He may have. Isn't that cool? And he did it all the right way, followed the rules, worked hard, was a good person, tried to make everything better. Now we don't know how this is going to go yet, but yeah, one person can change the world. They can.
Well, the Telegram app, as you know, their CEO was picked up in France and they were going to charge him with stuff if he didn't do what they wanted. But one of the things I guess they wanted was that now Telegram has agreed it's going to provide more data to governments, including the users' IP addresses and phone numbers, only if there's a valid legal request, which is a pretty big category. And that's according to the CEO. Now, as Mike Benz likes to remind us, this is how the United States controls free speech. It gets international entities to do on our behalf what we can't do legally because we're supposed to be the First Amendment people. But they do need to, our intelligence people apparently need to control all forms of communication, and this is part of it. So you should assume that all communication channels are accessed by the government completely at this point. I think that's the fair assumption.
Meanwhile, New York Post is reporting that you may have heard this story that Soros, George Soros, was trying to buy 200 radio stations that would go to 165 million Americans. Now, Soros owning a radio station and that much media just automatically raises every red flag in the world because if you can control the media and communication, you kind of control the country. Now you could argue, but Rupert Murdoch, he's not an American and he owns Fox News and they're very influential. And that's a good point, except as far as I know Rupert Murdoch wants what's good for America. I'm pretty sure that he never wakes up and says, you know, I want to destroy America today. It looks like the opposite, like he'd very much like America to do well because it's one of the places he has a lot of business. And so but the way the government works, it's going to take forever to approve a thing like this. I mean, it could take up to a year to get a thing like this approved. So I guess he's just going to have to wait a year while the government chugs through and tries to do his thing and all this money's on the line. But the poor bastard, he's just going to have to wait a year just like everyone else. Oh, update. Three Democrat commissioners voted outvoted the two Republican on the FCC and said that he can speed that up and the foreign company ownership of the US radio stations, that'll be fine. It'll just make an exception. Yeah, it's not, we don't normally allow that to be more than 25% stake, but you know, that's fine. We'll not only approve it, which we wouldn't normally approve, but we'll rush it. We'll not only approve it, which is an exception because we're not supposed to approve that much foreign ownership of an American entity like that media entity. And so that just happened by a partisan vote of Democrats outvoting Republicans.
Now you know why there will be no outrage about this story. I'll be a broken record because it's complicated. You'd have to know the players and all the implications, and you'd have to know the history, and you'd have to know it's unusual. You'd have to know what the law is that they're taking the exception to, and then you'd have to compare it to the 50 other stories that are complicated in the news today. You don't have enough outrage for this one. This should be a source of great national outrage. It won't be because first of all the Democrats control the media, and second of all we're just too busy. Just too many outrageous things. This won't even get your attention. So Soros is basically controlling the crime level in my town, and now he's going to take over the minds and directly brainwash American citizens, and we're just, hey, yeah, go ahead. We'll make an exception. No problem.
Meanwhile, Trump says he plans on deporting over half a million migrants, and I think he's talking about the Haitians specifically. Ship them back to Haiti as soon as he's in power. Now, I don't know if that's a good idea or a bad idea. Again, because it's complicated. If 80% of those Haitian migrants already have a job because there are companies that are just begging for low-end employees, I don't know if they should be top of the list if they're already employed and the company needs them. But the 20% that don't have a job, there must be a reason for that. So maybe our priorities should be different.
You know, if I were to predict what would really happen if Trump gets elected, I think he would first just close the asylum door. And the moment they stop coming in, your comfort with the world is going to completely change. So you think that there are two issues that are basically tightly linked. One is that too many people are coming in every day, and the other is that too many are already here. But if you solve the first one about too many people coming in every day, you're concerned about the ones who have already come in. Even 20 million of them will instantly go to half because you're saying, okay, we'll chug through this. By the second generation we'll probably be fine. So you would basically be able to live with it.
Now let's say that Trump decided not just closing the asylum door but that he would in fact be very aggressive in deporting. I think he will be. But where do you start? If you put all of your energy into just deporting the people who are clearly criminals, it would take all of your resources, and that's where you should put them. Nobody would argue. Nobody would argue with putting all your resources, 100% of it, on just getting criminals first. And that could take a few years. If you put 100% of your resources into just the criminals, years, it'll take years. And when you're done with that, let's say it's three years from the beginning of the Trump presidency, let's say he's got one year left and he doesn't want to go out as a monster. And the complaining about the number of immigrants who are already here now, maybe they've been working for five years and have a job and they're paying taxes. How much are you really going to want them to be deported? Some of you are going to say yes on principle. I get it. Some of you are going to say they're criminals. They're all criminals, so I got to send them back. But they're not all criminals. Remember, the ones who come through the asylum gate, which is the big one, they are legal because the asylum process processed them and they're just waiting for the process to continue. Now, you might not like it, but most of the people coming in are coming in under the umbrella of US law as it's interpreted at the moment. So my prediction is that he will go hard at deportations, but it will take all of his energy to keep the border sealed and send the criminals home. And by the time he's done with that, there just won't be much energy for the people who lived here for three years, really wanted a better life, their kids are learning English, they have a job. Right? Your level of being angry will just sort of get decreased. If they lied to get asylum, that is illegal, yeah. But it's also a reasonable opinion. Let's say you came from any country that has a cartel. How hard would it be to say, you know, I'm afraid of living where the cartel is? Is that not good enough? Do you have to prove that you got a specific threat? Here, here's the note where they said they'd kill me if I stay in Central America. Oh, asylum. How about, well, they haven't given me a direct threat, but where I live it's just so violent that I can't even walk outside without risk of getting killed, so I want asylum. Do you get it? I think the answer is yes. You just have to say that in your opinion your life is at risk. Nobody's going to, I don't believe anybody analyzes your life to find out what the degree of risk is. Now your real thinking might be economic security, but if you also have a legitimate dangerous situation, which would always be the case wherever the people want to leave to get economic opportunity, it's also going to be dangerous. I don't know. It would be hard to prove in a court of law that the only reason they came was for economics when they're in the middle of a dangerous hole. I think if I were them I'd try. I would claim asylum. And I know I hate those people. I don't hate them at all. So people who want a better life, I don't mind that we get a bunch of them as long as we can control it. The question about immigration, as you all agree, is having too much of it and the wrong kind. You want to make immigration simple and make everybody happier.
I thought of this one today. Now this could never really happen in the real world, but it'd be awesome if it could. You bring in everybody who's got an IQ over 120 and that's it. We'll take all you have from every country. Whole country, no problem. You get an IQ of 120, you're in. We don't care where you came from. Do you know what a powerhouse the United States would be if we put an IQ limit on immigration and we made it higher than average? So we imagine bringing in 10 million geniuses a year. I think we'd be okay. Yeah, we could bring in 10 million geniuses, like literally people who were in the 140s if we wanted. Maybe there's not enough of them. Scott is an open border proponent now. Did anything I say sound like an open border proponent? There are just so many trolls today on the comments. No, I'm not an open border proponent. I might be worrying about it less than you, but I'm definitely not an open border proponent.
Well, the US is going to send additional troops to the Middle East, so things are looking dangerous over there. That's according to Pentagon Press Secretary General Patrick Ryder. His brother Richard Ryder could not be heard from. Some call him Dick Ryder. In light of the increased tensions, they're sending people there. Well, that sounds bad.
And according to Peachy Keenan, who's a commenter on, Peachy says the federal government's highest priority is stopping Trump so he can't stop the wars. I am a believer in that narrative. The narrative that the primary thing that the United States is doing behind the curtain is making sure that we have maximum wars. But I don't think that they only do wars to sell war equipment. Here's, let me give you a reframe that might break some of your brains, and I haven't completely thought this through, so this is sort of new thinking. Would you agree with the following statement? If you're looking at, let's say, a business, a company, is it fair to say that companies are either growing, and that would be healthy, or they're shrinking, which is unhealthy, and they're going to go out of business? But things almost never stay the same. The rarest situation for any big complicated thing, the rarest situation is just always the same. So things are either improving or getting worse. Would you agree so far that the nature of things, countries, organizations, businesses, are either growing or they're getting worse? Very few things just same every day.
So I would argue, and you're not going to like this at all, that the only reason the United States is as successful as we are is because of colonization. And that if you weren't colonizing, you couldn't grow. Because in the days of serious colonizing, it was about resources. Some of those resources were human trafficking, of course, so it's horrible. But colonization allows you to get more resources from other countries, and you might have to control those countries to get the resources. Now you could say to me, but Scott, that is unethical and terrible. To which I say, yeah, I can see your point. It's unethical and terrible to the locals in many ways. But compare it to the alternative. The alternative is that China colonizes them or Russia colonizes them. Somebody's going to colonize everybody who can be colonized. There's no world in which you leave them alone. And when there's an exception, it would be like Switzerland. Because what, we need their chocolate? Why does anybody need to colonize Switzerland? We're going to take their mountains and bring them back home? We're going to take their weather and bring it with us? There's nothing to colonize in Switzerland. They don't have a damn thing that we need. That's why they can be neutral. If they had anything we needed, we'd be starting a war with them to get it. Because, and here's the part that's going to be hard for you to accept, if the United States isn't growing, we're dead. You grow or you die. You don't have a steady state option because even if you did stay steady state, other countries would grow faster and then they would have economic and other control over you.
So colonizing and controlling other countries, which includes wars, and that's what Ukraine looks like, and the Middle East is its own complicated situation, but there's some of that. If we don't colonize like crazy, we're all dead because we'll just shrink and go out of business. So you could say the United States is a terrible place because we create wars that didn't need to be created, and you'd be right. We're a terrible, terrible people who create wars that don't need to be created. But it works, and it has worked every year that the United States has been a country. We've grown faster than other places that don't colonize. So we have this big old navy that allows us to project power pretty much everywhere. That's why I can have this live stream, because we made so much money and inventions and technology was better and we've got great internet and all the things that you want in life. It's because people who are not you and not nearly as awesome as you, because you are ethical and moral and other people are not, but thank God those unethical people are doing horrible things in other countries and to other people. That if they didn't do, the United States would just disappear.
So here's my dilemma. I can be opposed to war, but I can't be opposed to the concept upon which the war rides. Now, there could be wars that don't give you enough resources and so therefore that's a dumb war that nobody is better off. But I don't think you can leave out of your thinking that whoever colonizes wins and whoever doesn't colonize loses. And I mean loses like you became poor or conquered slaves. I mean losing is really losing. I mean you lose everything. So do I care that the United States is super colonizing? Now you might say to me, Scott, if anything you're saying is true, why doesn't the government ever say it so that we'll be on their side when they do it? All the government has to do is say, look, let me be honest with you. If we don't grow, we shrink and then we're all dead. The only way we can grow, the only way, is by having lots and lots of control over these other countries so that we can get their resources as part of our supply chain. So we don't want to have these wars, but it's the only way to be successful. Why don't they say that? They can't because they would never be able to sell that to the public. The public would say, okay, but just don't do that because we don't want you to kill people in our name. I don't want anybody to kill anybody in my name. I don't want to pay taxes to somebody who's going to go kill a stranger in another country. On the other hand, that's a half opinion. A half opinion is you just take a part of the situation and then just pretend that's the whole situation. Part of the situation is I don't want anybody starting a war in my name with my money that could come back and bite me. I don't like war. That's a half opinion. If we were not this way, we probably would already be out of business.
So let me see if this analogy works. You've heard the stories about Steve Jobs being a genius at everything he accomplished. Have you also heard the stories that he was the biggest asshole in the entire world, like just a dick? You've heard that, right? Do you think it would have happened if he was just a get-along guy? Do you think if he had not been all those things that you wouldn't want to be and you wouldn't want to support and you wouldn't want to be near, if he hadn't been all of those things, do you think that Apple would be Apple? I don't. So I think you have to live in the real world a little bit and know that the hugely terrible things your government is doing is sometimes to benefit their buddies and their cohorts and the people who make the weapons. That's definitely a big part of it. But it's also probably absolutely critical for your survival, and they can't tell you that directly. So I'm going to tell you. It doesn't mean you shouldn't fight to stop wars because I think that's still the right impulse. There must be other ways we can do things. It's just not always about bombing stuff. But you have to be honest. The colonizing is the only reason that DEI even exists. And I don't mean as a complaint about colonizing. It's meaning you wouldn't even have the luxury of complaining about racial stuff if it weren't but you wouldn't even have the luxury of complaining about it except that we're a hugely successful country because of colonizing. I hate to say that. If you understand economics, everything looks different, but it is. You have to look at the whole picture.
Now, I wouldn't want anybody that I like to imitate this argument because it just makes you look like a jerk. That's why people don't do it. But one of my minor values to the world is that I can look like a jerk because I'm already cancelled, but it doesn't make any difference to me. So there's your argument. That's all I have for today. I'm going to talk to the locals people privately because they're special, and the rest of you I will see you tomorrow, same time, same place. So thanks for joining on YouTube and Rumble and X and Locals. I'm coming at you in 30 seconds. We'll have a little sip while we're waiting.
our stocks today before we get going here stocks look like they're uh mostly up I got killed on something okay looks like there's a lag well let's open up our comments and we're going to have a show oh my goodness the show you're going to see today again I'm jealous I wish I were you so I can watch the show instead of do doing the show but doing the show is pretty fun too I got to say good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization today with a whiteboard if you'd like to take your experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny shiny human brains all you need is is a cuper muger glass a tanker chel A din 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 dopamine of the day that thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous Sip and it happens now oh that was really good that was a good sip right there well good news good news there's a revolutionary anti-aging therapy um according to scitec Delhi researchers at Duke uh and US medical school they figured out that interlan 11 is uh very influential in your aging so if they can disarm this inter luk and 11 which they think they can do you could live up to 25% longer now good luck feeding you but there'll be lots of you imagine if everybody just started Living 25% longer I feel like that would destroy civilization am I wrong about that be careful what you ask for yeah how would you feed them all anyway uh X is going to make a change that if you block somebody as I love to do you'll still be able to see their content but they won't be able to interact with you which works for me now I don't know if you have this experience on X those of you who use it but there are lots of things that people uh re uh repost and there'll be some message where I can't read it and it doesn't say unblocked it says something like the user limits who can see their posts or something like that I don't even know what causes that but some large percentage of all the things that people send to me and say hey look at this I can't look at um large percentage maybe 5% but that's a lot so maybe that'll go away um you know the story about uh the Biden administration had that $42 billion set aside to build internet access to all the rural people and time went by and nobody got hooked up and you said to yourself why why did nobody get hooked up and I always thought to myself that the government funding of anything like this whether it's a local city or national or State issue I think that 100% of these are just corrupt and here's what I assume I assume that there are too many ways for a person in government to make money for themselves even if it's just donations for the next race by deciding who it's what contracts cuz if you've got billions of dollars to allocate don't you just find the friendliest person you can and say I get a deal for you we're going to give you a few billion dollars to do this work you'll be rich Beyond any imagination but I am going to come and ask for some favors in return perhaps you will make large donations to my campaign in the future Perhaps Perhaps um somebody that's in my family who is starting a company might need an investment and that has nothing to do with me I mean you your investment arm might do whatever it wants to do and might actually like that business that my cousin is working on so there are a million ways to do corrupt things with gigantic amounts of money that the government has to give to private citizens for various Services I think our elected officials should not be in that business at all I I think you have to remove the elected officials from allocating large amounts of money I'm okay with it making laws you can still make laws because we can watch that happen if we don't like it we'll vote against you but if you're moving gigantic amounts of money around in sketchy ways where we can't really know if you really pick somebody who is your brother-in-law you can't always know none of that works if you to write down that system on paper say all right I'm going to design the system here's the system we're going to have billions of dollars sloshing around with nobody watching carefully and we'll have our elected officials decide who gets the uh you know wins the bids who in the world who in the world would said that was a good idea the only thing I can think of for how we got to this place is that when the founders who built the system there just wasn't that much money floating around so it wasn't like there were billions of dollars floating around and it would be easy to you know to to make sure that you got a taste of it so maybe they just didn't think about it and and you could tell where the money was being spent just by looking you know maybe it was just a simpler time but I think we somehow have to get out of our system entirely that the people in charge get to make the decisions so what are what are some of the problems well some of the problems is they would spend too much and there would be corruption those are the obvious problems you want to hear another problem well according according to uh according to several people including commissioner Brendan Carr that the F he said this was the worst abuse of agency process I have seen in my 12 years of working at the FCC so I think the short version of this is that the reason things were held up so long to get that funding out and have it spent so people could get internet in rural areas is that they were kind of waiting for their preferred Democrat vendor to be ready to take the deal so I don't know the full details but it looks like it's exactly what you thought it was it wasn't incompetence it was waiting till they could give the money to their preferred person so that's that's what it looks like so imagine the choices that the government had they could spend far less money and be ready immediately just by using Elon Musk product but that would be giving these spare billions of dollars that the government has sitting around to the person who might spend them against them because Elon Musk might be you know if he has extra money maybe some of that's funding Republican related stuff so at all expense no matter what happened to the citizens who needed that internet the Democrats were still willing to completely embarrass themselves and do this criminality I call it criminal right in front of the whole country as long as it was good for them and then they did and then people complained and then what did the public say did the public rise up and say well I'm trying to feed my family today but now You' brought up this issue about the fcc's uh inefficient and possible corrupt allocation of bids no you don't care about that you'd have to be in the top 1% of 1% of people who follow the news even to care about that story because you know I got 50 stories that are you know at least as interesting so we don't have a system that even when this is uncovered and made public and it's in the news nothing can really be done about it because there's no there's no correcting system normally the correcting system would be you publish it you expose it and then somebody's going to have to make a correction nothing like that's happening there's a story there's an exposure seems pretty clear and obvious and you know I don't even think there's any doubt about what happened I'm I'm not even sure anybody's arguing The Narrative here and it's just complicated and it's one of many things so we're just going to ignore it so that's our system anyway um so I would say that one thing we need more than just about anything it's destroying all of our cities is that the decision of who gets the contracts cannot be the elected officials they just can't have they can't touch it that they need to be a full you know what do we used to call a Chinese wall um I I hope that's referring to the gray wall of China and not some RAC racist Trope that I don't know I just used is it racist to say a Chinese wall I don't know you can't say the the virus came from a Chinese lab anyway so uh here's another story about uh our system so according to f.org uh there are some robotss they got some robots that are measuring the temperature of the deep ocean and uh it's the Deep Argo floats and they they went in and they collected a bunch of data about the ocean and then they compared it to um to other temperature stuff that they did without these robots so surface temperatures and other measures and they decided that uh the ocean is getting warmer what do you think I'm going to say about this story do you know me well enough by now let let let me just say the most confident thing I could ever say we can't measure the temperature of the ocean you all know that right so here's a story telling us that they've got this robot it's measuring the temperature of the ocean well I'm sure it got data and I don't even doubt the accuracy of its measure measurement devices but how much of the ocean do you think they measured I mean just ask yourself how much did they measure and I don't know if you know this this may come as a shock to you but the ocean doesn't have walls I mean you know out out in the middle of the ocean there are no walls it turns out that the warmth where you measured it the moment you're done measuring it it can kind of move over somewhere else where maybe it wasn't so warm before no if you know anything about the real world and you've lived in it for five minutes you know you can't measure accurately enough the temperature of the ocean I'm sorry that's not a doable thing that a human being can do with current technology could we do it someday one could imagine that one could imagine a million drones that uh periodically drop you know temperature measurements into a million different places chosen randomly and they do it on a regular basis and then we track it for 30 years that might be pretty good I don't know but that might be pretty good do you think we're doing that do you think we're putting a million drones down every other day in random places no no we're not we're dropping a robot to in the in the ocean and then trying to tell people who were probably in charge of funding it that it was all very successful and they should be very happy they spent their money measuring the temperature of the ocean do you remember when you used to believe stuff like that when somebody would tell you yeah we measured the ocean and you thought huh good job I wouldn't know how to do it myself but I'm glad you're out there just killing it and measuring the temperature of the ocean no don't believe that uh meanwhile RFK Jr is saying that uh this is this is a great just a great way to put something I tell you RFK Jr is I don't know how much comes all from him and how much he has help with speechwriting and messaging but damn he's good so good listen to this one quote for half the price of OIC we could purchase Oran IC food for every American three meals a day and gym memberships for every obese American now there are probably a million different ways to say the message he was saying but somehow he picked the best one this is really good to to immediately just put that OIC thing because it's in the news right so if you pick anything that's already on people's minds you're you're automatically good messaging because you're not making them think of something you're finding something they're already thinking about that's that's a key to good messaging and persuasion find something they're already thinking about and then you've got something to tie your messaging to so that's what he did and now you might say is that true you could purchase organic food three meals a day for every American for half the price of OIC I don't know who knows I don't even know if you could calculate such a thing but doesn't it make you want to think think about it a little while makes you pause you go really well how much do we spend on o zpic and so half of that would that really would that really buy all that food and how much is a gym membership anyway so it doesn't matter that it's exactly you know those numbers match exactly what does matter of course is is it directionally correct yes it is yes it would be great if we didn't have to stick of drug us to be healthy if we just ate better and exercise so and uh he points out that even the Danish government doesn't recommend OIC it recommends a change in diet and exercise so he says uh it's a Danish company by the way so it's a Danish company that makes OIC but the country it comes from doesn't recommend it but we're not Danish and it's not a Danish company and we're we're just sucking thatu in like crazy and Kennedy says why are members of Congress doing the bidding of the Danish company instead of standing up for farmers and children very good question very good question um related to this is could vertical farming help uh help us vertical farming is indoor farming where instead of just having a row of stuff on the ground you build a wall wall and the the full wall is full of plants and then you can use the space more efficiently but there are some thoughts according to Sky Mech publication um that if you kept fiddling with the light and the the water and the nutrients and the spacing and all that stuff if you just kept filling with it you would just keep getting better at it until this was a real big part of our food system now remember if you do a vertical Farm an indoor Farm it can be placed close to the people who consume it so you take away all the storage and all the shipment costs and energy costs are high so and then apparently you can do things with regulating the light so you save a bunch of money at light by not using all the light right away and stuff like that so here's what I think I think you could easily imagine that an industry will pop up where first of all all the uh the vertical farming components are just um easy to buy and there's competition so You' need some kind of racks or shelving to get the height somebody probably already is just making those and you just say okay I'll buy these and put them in my farm likewise uh there have been a number of developments with light you know indoor artificial light to get just the right frequency and stuff like that and I've also seen stories about people using music and vibrations to to make their plants 10 times bigger so I feel like this is a little bit like indoor farming is sort of the Model T of automobiles where if you looked at the Model T you'd say to yourself I'm not so sure everybody's going to want one of these you know if it rains you going to get wet what what good is an automobile if it if you get wet when it rains nobody is going to buy these modeles but of course they got better every year and they continued to get better so I think vertical farming is the future let's talk about Diddy the you all know the Diddy story but what is interesting to me is how many probably innocent people are getting dragged into this story now I'm going to mention some names of celebrities but I want to be very careful that my context is telling you that they're innocent right they're going to be dragged into this Diddy stuff but they're innocent until they're proven guilty and as far as I know they're not proven guilty of anything so I'm going to call them all innocent and you better you better bring me some good information to change my mind but it seems like when you have a story like this where there's sort of a let's call it a black box of Badness where you don't know exactly what happened behind closed doors you can kind of throw everybody into it so now we have let's see mayor Adams of New York City so one of the rumors today is that he he knew too much or he has has some connection with the Diddy stuff or blackmail or something there's no evidence of that none it's just that he's a public figure he's having some legal issues it's around the same time then there were there was a whole bunch of music Executives who suddenly announced the resignation right after the Diddy thing broke so people saying well that's a lot of coincidental you know people leaving the business just at the time could it be related or is it just because it's the end of the year and that's when people like to uh retire anyway I don't know but innocent to proven guilty poor Justin Bieber is um he would be a victim if anything but we don't know what did or did not happen I worry the most about him because the circumstantial evidence looks pretty damning but I think we have to wait to hear from him um he may have he may now have the freedom to actually say what happened whereas obviously he didn't have the freedom before so we might find out a lot from Justin and I I hope he was not as victimized as people are speculating then there was this star Aaron Carter I hope I have the right name he was a young sort of a Bieber kind of a you know young fell fellow who was also part of that Diddy world and he allegedly died young and some people are saying well was it did he really die or was he murdered I'm not making any assumptions here again I'm just telling you that people are being dragged into the story who some number of them probably had nothing to do with anything there's a whole bunch of Ashton cutcher stories apparently I didn't know this but there's a a well-known story where Ashton cutcher earlier in his career was going on a date with somebody he had not yet met in person I think and he went to pick her up and she didn't answer the door uh and later it was found that she had been stabbed to death 47 times so she was inside she was just dead by the time he got to his date and he'd been talking to her you know during the night now I have no reason to believe he was in in any way involved with any bad behavior however how many of you have had the experience of becoming a TV and movie star but also showed up somebody's house when they were slain that's just a weird coincidence isn't it like how many how many stories that are different from every story anybody else would tell does Ashton Kutcher have you know then he becomes a successful investor you know separately interesting anyway uh Asher of course he was one of the ones who stayed at Diddy's house now we're seeing old videos of him talking about it in generic terms but now it doesn't look so generic and you think oh my God they were trying to tell us but again I'm not going to assume that anybody did anything or had anything done to to them we don't know yet uh even then I saw today even I'm not going to name who even mentioned this but uh today Monica Lewinsky was thrown into the mix now this is the one I believe the least um but the suggestion is that during the time if you know the Epstein if you know that Epstein was a blackmailer and you know that Monica somebody said she's Jewish which shouldn't mean anything I I think that's confirmed because she dated Jake Tapper and they met on a J date or Jewish website dating site so that doesn't mean she's working for is and it doesn't mean she's you she was co-opted by Epstein or any of that it's just that she gets dragged into the story because she's a public figure and we don't know everything that happened in that situation so I would say the odds of her being a Israeli spy low I'm not ready to be interested in that story but U my story is about how people are getting dragged into it so she got dragged into it a little bit today uh Lebron James I guess he was pretty tight with h Diddy so uh lots of rumors about Le.
Bron again I'm not aware of anything he did illegal um or even knew about so we don't know and then all of this brought Kanye back in the news because now the things that Kanye said that sounded crazy when you when you listen to them again through the lens of knowing what actually happened it's a little less crazy I'm not ready to say that everything Kanye said is true and he had his you know he had his issues with the Jewish people who's working with I'm not going to endorse it or you know uh say anything about that that's his business but everybody's getting Dragged In makes you wonder and then uh then 50 Cent you know he seems to be the most innocent because from early on he was saying things showing that he's not part of that but he also said that he was on a I saw in a talk show I don't know how long ago it looked reasonably recent that he said he's celibate and by choice because uh it's just basically causes problems when you're not do you believe that do you believe the 50 Cent who could probably have as much sex as he wanted every day as much you know all day long uh decided not to have any I don't know it could be that he's pranking he could be pranking but it might be true it might be true anyway Trump uh went to a grocery store and I think he bought some groceries for somebody um it was mentioned that I had suggested he go to a grocery store and bag groceries I wish he had bag groceries because the visual of him chatting with a real person you know while they're both standing there and he's deciding what goes in the bottom of the bag and you know how many bags you need to me that would just be magic so it was it was a good play going to where there're real people and where the story naturally is about inflation because he's in the grocery store same thing with um pumping gas you know there are a couple states where you can pump gas I would still love to see somebody drive up to the pump in one of those States I think New Jersey and Washington or something I can't remember which states and just have Trump walk out and give you gas and then chat with you about the price of gas I would love that it it would just be so natural because every time I don't know if you noticed this but 100% of the time that Trump talks in public the the anti-trump Press will find something to take an a context and you know some reason to not like it but every time every time Trump talks to Citizens it's a home run and you know I I'm Pro this because I was lucky enough I've told you too many times that uh you I spent some time with them at the White House um in 2018 when he was just I think he was just Shoring up support among the people that he knew supported him and spending time with him is the easiest most fun thing you'll ever do in your life to me it was a highlight of really my whole life um he is so good so good on the individual Charisma human interaction level that the more he does of that it's just magic so this was a good play all right let's talk about propaganda which you call news so Anderson Cooper and James caralon and uh listen to some of the things that that Cooper says when you think that he's having somebody on to get some news from the person he's talking to but you find out that the person he's talking to is irrelevant because he's making the news by his statements in other words he's he's using the interview just to spread propaganda this is my interpretation so here's something that Cooper said to Carville on the air quote when you look at the last couple of months you have uh Donald Trump talking about Haitians eating cats and dogs dogs his candidate in North Carolina talking about himself as a black Nazi on a porn site he brought 9/11 conspiracy theorist to a 911 memorial ceremony and then he says to Carville why do you think it's this close now that sounds a little like payback because this is what I've been saying so almost every day I tell you something that's so ridiculously absurd coming out of the Harris campaign and I always end with and the polls are tie because to me it's hilarious that you could have somebody who is afraid to appear in public who's running for president who has no accomplishments whatsoever is part of the administration that everybody thinks failed and that is close and we know exactly what Trump did in the first term and if you were to compare that to what has happened recently it's I don't think it's close I one was anti-war one was proar I mean to me it doesn't look close but can you tell that the way Cooper uh phrased the question that it was never about the question it was about him saying that Trump is so bad that why doesn't the public see it yet when we the news keep telling them here I'm the news I'm telling you I'm telling you he's bad why don't you vote differently yeah that was no news value no news value nor could there have possibly been any news value there wasn't even any potential for news value it was pure propaganda in which the person who was the guest in this case Carville was was really a prop he wasn't even part of the process he was just a prop now what is what is Carville most famous for he most famous for helping Clint didn't originally get elected and for using the phrase It's the economy stupid so he was the smart one who said people care about you know buying groceries you if you keep it to that you're going to win and then Clinton did do you do you hear Carville say that anymore do you do you hear Carville say it's the economy stupid do you think you stop being about the economy when the economy is actually more important to people now than maybe just about any time except the Great Depression no Carville can't even say the thing that made him famous just think about that when they bring on the worst than Watergate guys I always joke about that they make sure that the worst than Watergate guys say something was worse than Watergate but uh when Trump said he wants to eat a cat was that worse than Watergate oh that's worse than Watergate so much worse than Watergate but you bring on Carville who is the famous it's the economy stupid but he can't say that do you know why do you know why Carville can't say it's the economy stupid because it's the economy stupid he can't say it because it's true just just hold that in your mind he can't say it because it's true and and Trump uh dominates in the Public's mind about who would do a better job in the economy so the moment you put uh Carville on the air and then Carville says what made him famous which was always true and remains maybe even more true today nope can't say it because it's true so then uh here's here's the second Anderson Cooper propaganda thing um and what you should watch for is how the question is the only thing with substance and then the guest that he has on adds absolutely nothing right here's so here's what happens um so Cooper starts out with uh you stating that what he would consider an obvious truth I guess so he stated it like you know everybody knows this so here's the thing that everybody knows that propagandist Cooper told his uh his dumb viewers he said that uh obviously hand counting would have more errors that does that track with what you know that hand counting would have more errors than machine counting the entire reason that this was talking about Georgia just changed the law so that in Georgia the ballots will have to be handc counted they're not going to use machines for that so this of course if it's true that Georgia was massively cheating using the complexity of their various systems then the hand counting would eliminate their ability to do that why would a news organization be opposed to somebody getting read of all the complexity that lowered The credibility of the result and putting in the system that everybody who knows anything about elections thinks is the better system the paper ballots especially when you have somebody watching you count them let me ask you this if you've got a Democrat and a and a republican watching every ballot get counted which is how you should do it how many mistakes are you going to make is the Watcher going to go to the bathroom or something I don't know and then if you don't get the right answer you can always just count it again so you have a perfect audit because you just recount it you can't do that with the current system so here's what uh so first Cooper says it's sort of an obvious that hand counting is bad that is the opposite from true but he stated it like it doesn't even need to be discussed it's just you know everybody could tell hand counting I mean really how how are you going to compare like a stupid human to a computer obviously the computer is going to be better at math I mean seriously right no the hand counting is by far the more reliable system and that why it's used it's used specifically because it's more reliable that's the only reason anyway maybe because it's cheaper in some cases uh so then the guest who is there to add value said stuff like uh blah blah blah they're trying to carry Trump's water they ankle biters conspiracy theories uh there basically Mega this he didn't have anything on the topic nothing he didn't say well the Studies have shown that this is bad idea nope well here's the logical reason why this can't work nope he simply insulted Republicans he he was a guest to talk about this technical issue of ballots versus you know machines and all he had was some insults to Republicans he didn't even he didn't even try to offer a reason why anything was better or worse or preferred and then Cooper ends the segment by reminding the audience that we do know the 2020 election was fair and everything was fine which is a lie because we don't have a system that could be audited completely and therefore there is no way to know it was fair we can only know that nobody proved in the court that it was unfair in time so one lie that hand counting is unreliable and then he ends it with knowing that we we know for sure that which cannot be known which is the quality of the prior election can't be known there's no way to know it the only thing he could have done to make it Dumber is to say our elections are as accurate as our ability to use a robot to measure the temperature of the entire ocean should have thrown that in there well what is the most ignored story of 2024 that also was the most important well here's my nomination now I think this is all true so I have to say that first it could be ignored because maybe I have something wrong maybe it's not true but I think it's true I saw the documents I I didn't see anybody just debunk them so the claim is and uh you you see this in a bunch of places but uh the claim is that uh we now know in writing because we have the document that Trump gave clear instructions to the Pentagon before the January 6 riots that he wanted to make sure that they were fully staffed and they had all the all the defensive military assets they needed and they were all ready to go so that there was no violence that day now that one fact if that's true completely eliminates the entire Democrat um reason for running against Trump their main thing is that January 6 proved that he's an insurrectionist and now we have written proof written we have the documents to show that he absolutely was trying to make sure that there was no violence how exactly was he going to take over the country with with troops that were not loyal to him I mean they were loyal to their senior officers and they were there to protect the capital from his people in what way do any of the narratives make sense about it was some kind of an Insurrection now I should be clear that and so my main point is this is the most ignored story of 2024 two questions for you my audience is this true is is this story true that we do know for sure that Trump was trying to organize and put effort into it and that uh the help was denied by maybe Millie because of Optics when it came down to it so if this is true everything we've been told about January 7 6 is a lie and also the January 6 commission if they were aware of this and they left of the report they all need to be in jail is that too far the January 6 commission if they knew this fact they knew that this document exists and they didn't include it in the process they need to be in jail in jail like seriously they need to be in jail like right away because that would be one of the biggest crimes I've ever seen in the history of the United States non non-financial crime it would be the biggest one you know not counting something that's violent hurts people although in a sense this was this did hurt people you could argue that not giving Trump that military assistance was the reason people died so I guess you did kill people through this political process so yes um to me that looks like election interference by the j6 um committee and I think they should be charged and jailed for that and I really think they should be jailed for that you know I'm not I'm not a fan of using lawfare to go after your other side so there's a lot of things that may or may not have been said or done by let's say Harrison Biden that even if they look pretty illegal I feel like we'd all be better off if maybe we just moved on and try to make sure it doesn't happen in the future whatever it is but the committee the j6 committee I I don't give them the same same kind of analysis to me they just look like criminals that's what I see I think they should be in jail anyway um Jim aost on CNN had to uh he had to confess that the latest New York Times poll said that Comm K Harris is support among Latino voters in Arizona is down 11% since last month but then he added this this is Jim aasta and CNN quote if you believe this New York Times poll so they get a poll they don't like and then he adds if you believe it wouldn't wouldn't you have to add that for every poll it seems like you should say that for every single poll if you believe that but only the ones I don't like I guess you've probably heard that the uh attempted assassin the second one on the golf course that Ryan Ruth guy or ralth uh he wrote a letter I don't know when he wrote this maybe after he got jailed admitting he failed in trying to kill Trump but he offered a $150,000 reward to someone who could finish the job and then our department of justice decided that you should see that letter why why did we really need to see that because you could argue that if if you think we should see anything well maybe we should see everything like everything you know like show us right away as soon as you know but we know they don't do that we know that when it's an ongoing investigation that they hold the facts back as long as possible um but why would they publish this when it obviously seems like it creates danger for the president well to me it looks like the reason was to create danger for the president now I don't know that I can't read any minds but I don't don't really know the second possibility like what would be the other reason for doing it wouldn't wouldn't every one of you have consider this inappropriate to put in public if you got the job tomorrow of being in charge of whether somebody saw that picture saw that letter or not wouldn't you suppress it because I don't know what news value it had other than bringing up the idea that somebody could get a Payday well related to that um You probably heard that uh Matt Gates is talking about uh apparently we know there are five assassination teams in the United States now where he gets that I don't know but I do think that he doesn't make it up so I think he's got some inside knowledge about that and if there are five teams and allegedly one of them is a Ukrainian based team shouldn't we stop all funding to Ukraine if we have information that a Ukrainian assassination team is on American soil or some of them shouldn't we immediately stop funding if we knew it if it came from the government I can't imagine it wouldn't come from the government um and then we have the interesting connection that that uh ralth guy the second attempted assassin spent a bunch of time in Ukraine it was pro-ukraine and was trying to do everything to help Ukraine and would imagine that taking out Trump would help Ukraine so the question that Gates asks which is a good question is this guy couldn't possibly have been operating alone and if we know there's a Ukrainian hit team do we have everything we need to know I mean it's not confirmation but if anyone was on a Ukrainian hit team it would have been this guy because if you're a smart Ukrainian hit team you don't use a Ukrainian to hit the president if a Ukrainian pulled the trigger things aren't going to go well for Ukraine you all know that right and Ukraine would know that so same with Iran if there's an Iranian hit team the last thing they want to do is be the Iranians that pull the trigger that's not going to happen so we've got two cases of people who got spun up rather quickly to be attempted assassins I wouldn't be surprised if Kooks was influenced by Iran and uh ralth was influenced by Ukraine or some factors within Ukraine not necessarily zalinsky but can't rule it out so there's that uh the national pulse points out that the Washington Post is trying to uh remind us that it would be totally normal on Election Day if Trump is way ahead when you go to sleep but then all those mail and ballots get counted and then and suddenly Biden comes from behind so just like last election we're being told that the normal most credible thing in the world is for a last minute dump of Biden votes that feels exactly like we're being set up for a steal in fact I don't even have a second way to think about it now you could imagine that if it were all legitimate they'd still need to say it to make sure that you didn't think it was illegitimate but man we are at such a low trust point in Civilization that when somebody does something that's so obviously could have that other meaning you know maybe not the positive meaning I just I'm so biased toward well that looks like you're setting us up for a steal I don't know it but every part of my body feels like that's what happened so that's not ideal um then in other news uh Trump joked that he has a person what he called a personality defect he says I don't like anybody that doesn't like me now he is so good at making news with little things that don't matter like almost anytime he words things is just perfect writing this is so it's hard so hard to look away because on one hand he didn't say anything cuz you and I have the same feeling right how many of you love the people who think you're not most of us mostly we like people who like us I know I do if somebody likes me you'd have a hard time talking me liking you that's for sure but if you don't like me you think I'm going to say you know this person doesn't like me but I think they're awesome there are some situations in which I do that there are some cases where people hate me but it's not returned CU I think they hate me for reasons that you know they're just confused if they actually knew real facts and still hated me they're not my friend but if they if they've been brainwashed by somebody I you know I take that into consideration but anyway uh I think he's just like it the rest of us but he says it in a more provocative way meanwhile in Arizona there was this Democrat uh campaign office that uh somebody shot up so just a few bullets nobody was there and I think that whoever shot it could tell that nobody was there maybe it was at night or something but isn't that convenient that just when the conversation is hey you Democrats keep saying things that get our president shot at and they don't have a good answer for it because it doesn't seem equivalent in both directions and then oh oh a mysterious person shoots at a Democrat office in Arizona huh well certainly we can add that to our narrative to say that the the rhetoric coming from the right is so bad that there's some rightwing lunatic probably a white supremacist who grabbed his gun way too many guns as you've been told by the Democrats went down to that office and tried to kill some Democrats and weren't they lucky that none of them were in the office at that time does this feel like a real story to you or does it sound like it's a little too on the nose as in it's the perfect story at the perfect time with no victims that's a little convenient it's a little bit too convenient now I can't rule out the fact that there was just a crazy person with a gun who doesn't like Democrats wasn't trying to hurt anybody but was just being a dick and thought I'm going to put a couple of bullets through their building just to show him I hate him no I can see that so I'm not saying it's not I'm not saying it's impossible that some Republican thought ain't nobody's home I'm going to put a couple of bullets in their house I'm not in favor of that in case you couldn't tell um but it's just a little too close it's just a little too perfectly timed perfectly The Narrative that the Democrats want sorry I'm not going to buy it I'm not going to rule out the possibility that was exactly what it looks like some Republican wanted to cause some trouble but I'm not going to buy it you're going to have to give me a lot more to make me believe this story all right meanwhile Putin is allegedly quoted saying that uh he accused Western leits of cannibalism uh claiming that they have grown used to filling their bellies with human flesh and their pockets with money he further warned that this is a ball or cabal of vampires nearing its end H now cannibalism I think he's gone too far don't you I mean we don't we don't actually have cannibalism I mean somebody blamed the the Haitians but you know there's no evidence of anything like that but are we getting closer to it let's go to the Whiteboard and find out are there any are there any forces in the United States that are moving us toward cannibalism let's say the price of groceries is high and people's ability to afford them is worse at the same time that people in general are getting shittier and uh at least the Democrats don't care how many Republicans die and probably is the same on the other side for some people now I think we're probably about here we're halfway to cannibalism so if the food continues to get more expensive and your fellow humans continue to suck even more than they do now you won't mind eating a few to save money on groceries so I'm going to debunk Putin we do not have people eating cannibal we do not have the elite eating people in this country as far as I know uh but we're heading that way we're heading that way anyway um Congress has this bipartisan plan they're promoting to figure out how we could quickly adjust if there's a Mass Attack on Congress and a bunch of our leaders get killed at the same time huh huh what would make that so important lately hasn't that been something that would have been important from the moment the atomic bomb was invented why is it suddenly in the news and suddenly has bipartisan support well maybe it's just this is when enough people wanted to do it so it could be just natural maybe this is the time but uh I love this comment by Liz kroen on X who said uh on this story if every member of Congress who is guilty of crimes related to pedophilia sex trafficking and or treason was charged it would not only wipe out most of Congress it would wipe out many of the government's employees maybe the mass casual event they're preparing for is justice do you think it's possible that the Diddy situation goes so deep that it could take out like a quarter of Congress or something I'm going to say no I I don't think that's a risk but is there something that Congress knows that we don't could it be the Swarms of drones or making it possible for somebody to take out big parts of Congress could there be some credible credible um stories that maybe somebody has a weapon of mass destruction already in the country what are we not being told all right uh there's a plan according to New Scientist there's a plan to refreeze some of the Arctic Ice you know the climate change uh people are concerned that uh the ice is melting and then the uh the water will go up too high and uh so they figured out a way they're testing it so they'll pump some seawater uh and I guess they'll pump it back onto the the ice and it will kind of quickly freeze and then they'll build up the ice so that the ice melting is compensated by the amount of water they're putting back and dies does that make sense Scott is so naive let let me let me take a uh just make a comment to the who are in the comments at the moment you don't need to tell me that some of our leaders are puppets if I don't mention it every time I mentioned them it doesn't mean I'm not aware that there are many forces behind the leaders who are the ones in charge so you don't need to be a and just say Scott is naive he does not understand that are puppets no I'm just not going to say it every time I mention their name okay if if you're new to this maybe this will be a surprise to you but if you've been watching me for a while there's nothing I say more often than we don't know who's making the decisions so just stop being a dick for half a second try to add something to the world instead of being worthless like you are now thank you at least come up with some real thing just not some he's naive Scott the one that bothers me the most is Scott needs to learn from me and take a half day class in everything about uh uh chemical something no I don't no I don't you're just being a dick so just stop being a dick if there's something you think I should know put it in the comments if you know something you could do that if you don't know anything you can't put it in the comments and you can just say oh Scott is so naive he's so naive he does not understand the things that I know because I know things I read a story once all right so anyway there's a plan to refreeze the ice meanwhile uh according to real climate science there's a record increase in ice in September so one story is we've got to figure out how to make more ice the other story is my God there's a lot of ice being made in the first three weeks of September now it has been going down the amount of ice so September is an outlier so you can't make any judgments about you know one month but um Mexico this will seem like an unrelated story but watch me tie it all together so Mexico is building a alternative to the Panama Canal so it's going to be a land route across a thin part of Mexico so you could unload your boats onto I guess trains and then the trains would take it to the other side and if they can get the economics right and build this thing they can compete with the Panama Canal now you might say but why not just use the Panama Canal what what's wrong with the Panama Canal well there are a few situ few problems with the panamal canal at the moment number one there are a lot of ships that want to go through so you know there's a just congestion number two uh the Panama Canal is not as efficient as it used to be because the water levels are too low wait what so in the real world the Panama Canal which is all about the ocean I don't think they're pumping in the water from a lake are they when when they do the uh the canal what what do you call those things the the little things that fill up with water so you can raise the ship I forget what the the locks um the that's seawat are you telling me that down in Mexico they're running out of sea the the water level is too low for the panamon canal to work well what happened to all that all that ice that melted in the you know one of the things I think about the ocean is that once the water gets in there you can't really stop where it goes again no walls in the ocean now I do understand that there are other factors that can make the sea level change for example uh you know the moon's position and you know if it's warmer in some places the the just the warmth itself cell makes everything larger including the water um volume I guess so you know there are other factors besides just the melting ice but it is kind of interesting that somebody's spending a lot of money to figure out how to create more ice at the same month that we have a record amount of ice and Mexico is complaining about not enough ice has melted to give them water in the ocean I guess I added the ice part they didn't complain about that anyway um attorney Jeff Clark who was one of President Trump's lawyers during the January 6 era um is pointing out that uh there's no evidence that KL har has ever tried a case like in court now she was the boss of some cases that happened uh because you it was her job to be the The Da but there's no evidence that she ever tried a case now that doesn't mean she didn't but Jeff Clark set it in public and and invited people to prove prove him wrong and nobody did so there's actually no evidence she's ever prosecuted anyone in court herself she was the boss when somebody did it Andrew Cuomo you remember him once the governor of New York but then disgraced by Meo isms um and by the way when I say disgraced since I call myself disgraced I'm just using it IR ically anyway he said in a speech recently that quote defund the police uh was the with the dumbest words ever uttered he said that in Brooklyn so it's good to know that KLA Harris's uh idea one of the things she's famous for saying is according to one of the most prominent and smartest Republicans the dumbest words ever uttered so I I think seeing more people crossing over their party this time than ever before aren't we because the the Democrats do in fact have a whole bunch of former Republicans who are endorsing Harris mostly just anti-trumpers and now we see I feel like there's a whole bunch of people who had at one point identified as a Democrat who switched over I've never seen so much switching a whole bunch of switching what what's that about do you think that's just the general people wising up that their own team is lying to them so maybe the other team is lying less I'm not sure what that's about but it probably has mostly to do with you know Trump being unusually provocative meanwhile according to just the news uh Nome was bragging that some new crime stats came out and he said uh in a post new violent crime dropped Across America last year and said can't wait to see the Fox news coverage of this well maybe you shouldn't be so happy about how they're going to cover this because it turns out according to just the news that uh that was for the country it wasn't for California so um so property clim property crime did decline even in California but uh violent crime is up 3.6% and the value of cars stolen in California was over $2 billion last year do you know how much that is $2 billion dollar worth of automobiles were stolen in one year in one state $2 billion so you know I I had to like take measures to make sure my car didn't get has stolen never had to do that before now it turns out that a large portion of the increase in violent crimes uh was in one County there was one County what was it about this one County that was different as a famous Soros funded prosecutor who is the subject of a recall movement I don't know if it worked um so the Soros prosecutor comes in and then my County this is where I live by the way this is my County so my County went from just about the safest place you could ever be at least in my portion of it because I think it includes Oakland which is the least safe but where I live I chose it because it was the safest place I could go and at the time I could go anywhere I wanted well I mean I had reasons to be in Pleasanton but so it turns out that Soros says destroyed my County with his funded prosecutor and uh it's such a big effect that it's affecting the stats in California and might even affect the national race because if people are saying that the Soros prosecutors and the Democrats are causing this they're going to vote accordingly so the the Soros prosecutor in my County might can might be enough to get Trump elected basically well speaking of uh getting elected Scott presler um who has been registering people to vote like crazy and focused on Pennsylvania because that's the everybody says is the most important state whoever wins that will probably win the election um not for sure but it's it seems to be a key State or the key State and he says that as of yesterday he flipped luzern County in Pennsylvania by flipped meaning that more registered voters are Republican than Democrat now that's a really big deal it could be that Scott presler is the one who decided who got elected isn't that weird you know I you always hear this uh one person can't make a difference thing Really Scott presler may have just won the election for Trump and saved the world he may have just done this by himself I mean he got lots of people to help but they wouldn't have been helping if he had not been the organizer and the force of nature that he is so can one person change the world he may have he may have Isn't that cool and he did it all the right way followed the rules worked hard you know was a good person tried to make everything better now I we don't know how this is going to go yet but yeah one person can change the world they can well the telegram app as you know their CEO was picked up in France and they were going to charge him with stuff if he didn't do what they wanted but uh one of the things I guess they wanted was that U now telegram has agreed it's going to provide more data to governments including the users IP addresses and phone numbers um only if there's a valid legal request which is you know pretty big category and that's according to the CEO now as uh Mike Benz likes to remind us uh this is how the United States controls Free Speech it gets uh International entities to do on our behalf what we can't do legally because we're supposed to be the first amendment people but they do need to you know our intelligence people apparently need to control all forms of communication and uh this is part of it so you should assume that all communication channels are accessed by the government um completely at this point I think that's the the fair assumption uh meanwhile New York Post is reporting that uh you may you may have heard this story that Soros George Soros was trying to buy 200 radio stations uh that would go to 165 million Americans now Soros owning a radio station and that much media just automatically raises every red flag in the world because if you can control the media and communication you kind of control the country now you could argue but but but rer Marduk he's not aner americ and he owns Fox News and they're very influential and that's a good point except as far as I know um rer Murdoch wants what's good for America I'm pretty sure that he never wakes up and says you know I want to destroy America today it looks like the opposite like he'd very much like America to do well because it's you know one of the places he has a lot of business and so but you know the the uh the way the government works it's going to take forever to approve a thing like this I mean it could take take up to a year to get a thing like this approved so I guess he's just going to have to wait a year while the government chugs through and tries to do his thing and all this money's on the line but the poor bastard he's just G to have to wait a year just like everyone oh update uh three Democrat Commissioners vot out voted the two Republican um on the FCC and said that he can speed that up and uh the foreign Company ownership of the US radio stations that'll be fine it'll just make an exception yeah it's not we don't normally allow that to be more than 25% stake but you know that's fine we'll not only approve it um which we wouldn't normally approve but we'll rush it we'll not only approve it which is an exception because we're not supposed to approve that much foreign ownership of an American entity like that uh media entity and so that just happened by a partisan vote of Democrats out voting Republicans now you know why there will be no outrage about this story I'll be a broken record because it's complicated you'd have to know the players and all the implications and you'd have to know the history and you'd have to know it's unusual you'd have to know what the law is that they're taking the exception to and then you'd have to compare it to the 50 other stories that are complicated in in the news today you don't have enough outrage for this one this should be a source of great National outrage it won't be because first of all the Democrats control the media and second of all we're just too busy just too many outrageous things this won't even get your attention so Soros is basically controlling the the crime level in my town and now he's going to take over the minds and directly brainwash American citizens and we're just hey yeah go ahead we'll make an exception no problem meanwhile Trump says he plans on deporting over half a million um migrants um and I I think he's talking about the Haitians specifically um ship them back to Haiti as soon as he's in power now I don't know if that's a good idea or a bad idea uh again because it's complicated if if uh if 80% of those Haitian migrants already have a job because there are companies that are just you know begging for low-end employees I don't know if they should be top of the list if if they're already employed and the company needs them but you know the 20% that don't have a job there must be a reason for that so maybe maybe maybe our priorities should be different you know if I were to predict what would really happen if Trump gets elected I think he would first just you know close the Asylum door and the moment they stop coming in you're you're uh comfort with the world is going to completely change so you think that there are two issues that are basically tightly linked one is that too many people are coming in every day and the other is that too many are already here but if you solve the first one about too many people coming in every day you're concerned about the ones who have already come in even 20 million of them will instantly go to half because you're saying okay we we'll we'll chug through this you know we'll by the second generation will probably be fine you know so you would basically be able to live with it um now let's say that uh Trump decided not just closing the Asylum door but that he would in fact be very aggressive in deporting I think he will be but where do you start if you put all of your energy into just deporting the people who are clearly criminals it would take all of your resources and that's where you should put them nobody would argue nobody would argue with putting all your resources 100% of it on just getting criminals first and that could take a few years if you put a 100% of your resources into just the criminals Years it'll take years and when you're done with that let's say it's three years from the beginning of the Trump presidency let's say he's got one year left and he doesn't want to go out as a monster and the complaining about the number of immigrants who are already here now they maybe they've been working for five years and have a job and they're paying taxes how much are you really going to want them to be deported some of you are going to say yes on principal I get it some of you are going to say they're criminals they're all criminals so I got to send them back but they're not all criminals remember the ones who come through the Asylum gate which is the big one they are legal because the Asylum process processed them and they're just waiting for the process to continue now you might not like it but most of the people coming in are coming in Under the Umbrella of US law as it's interpreted at the moment so my prediction is that he will go hard at deportations but it will take all of his energy to keep the Border sealed and send the criminals home and by the time he's done with that there just won't be much energy for the people who lived here for three years really wanted a better life their kids are learning English they have a job right your your level of being angry will just sort of get you know uh decreased if they lied to get Asylum that is illegal yeah but it's also a reasonable opinion let's say you came from any country that has a cartel how hard would it be to say you know I'm afraid of living where the cartel is is that not good enough do you have to prove that you got a specific threat here here's the note where they said they'd kill me if I stay in Central America oh Asylum how about well they haven't given me a direct threat but where I live it's just so violent that I can't even walk outside without risk of getting killed so I want Asylum do you get it I think the answer is yes you just have to say that in your opinion your life is at risk nobody's going to I don't believe anybody analyzes your life to find out what the degree of risk is now your real thinking might be Economic Security but if you also have a legitimate dangerous situation which would always be the case wherever that wherever the people want to leave to get Economic Opportunity it's so it's also going to be dangerous I don't know it it would be hard to prove in a court of law that the only reason they came was for economics when they when they're in the middle of a dangerous hole I I think if I were them I'd try I would claim Asylum and I know I hate those people I don't hate them at all so people who want a better life I don't mind that we get a bunch of them as long as we can control it the the the question about immigration as you all agree is having too much of it and the wrong kind you want to make immigration simple and make everybody happier I thought of this one today now this could never really happen in the real world but it'd be awesome if it could you bring in everybody who's got an IQ over 120 and that's it you we'll take we'll take all you have from every country whole country no problem you get an IQ of 120 you're in we don't care where you came from do you do you know what a Powerhouse the United States would be if we put an IQ limit on immigration and we made it higher than average so we imagine bringing in 10 million Geniuses a year I think we'd be okay okay yeah we could bring in 10 million Geniuses like literally you know people who were in The 140s if we wanted uh maybe there's not enough of them Scott is an open border proponent now did anything I say sound like an open border proponent there just so many trolls today on the on the comments no I'm not an open border proponent I uh I might be worrying about it less than you but I'm definitely not an open border proponent well the us is going to send quote additional troops to the Middle East so things are looking dangerous over there that's according to uh Pentagon Press Secretary General Patrick Ryder his brother Richard Ryder could not be heard from some call him dick Ryder in light of the increased tensions they're sending uh people there well that sounds bad and uh according to pichy Keenan who's a a commenter on um a pachy says uh the federal government's highest priority is stopping Trump so he can't stop the wars uh I am a believer in that narrative The Narrative that the primary thing that the United States is doing behind the curtain is making sure that we have maximum Wars but I don't think that they only do Wars to sell War equipment here's let me uh let me give you a let's say a reframe that might break some of your brains and I haven't completely thought this through so this is sort of new thinking would you agree with the following statement if you're looking at let's say a business a company is it fair to say that companies are either growing and that would be healthy or they're shrinking which is unhealthy and they're going to go out of business um but things almost never stay the same like the the rarest situation for any any big complicated thing the rarest situation is just always the same so things are either improving or getting worse would you agree so far that the nature of things countries organizations businesses are either growing or they're getting worse very few things just same every day so I would argue and you're not going to like this at all that the only reason the United States is successful as successful as we are is because of colonization and that if you weren't colonizing you couldn't grow because in the days of serious colonizing it was about resources some of those resources you know were human trafficking of course so it's horrible but um colonization allows you to get more resources from other countries and you might have to control those countries to get the resources now you could say to me but Scott that is unethical and terrible to which I say yeah I can see your point it's unethical and terrible to the locals in many ways but compare it to the alternative the alternative is that China colonizes them or Russia colonizes them somebody's going to colonize everybody who can be colonized there's no world in which you leave them alone the and when there's an exception it would be like Switzerland because what we need their chocolate why does anybody need to colonize Switzerland is we're going to take their mountains and bring them back home uh we're going to we're going to take their weather and bring it with us there's nothing to colonize in Switzerland they don't have a damn thing that we need that's why they can be neutral if they had anything we needed we'd be starting a war with them to get their because and here's the part that's going to be hard for you to accept if the United States isn't growing we're dead you grow or you die you don't have a steady state option because even if you did stay steady state other countries would grow faster and then they would have economic and other control over you so colonizing and controlling other countries which includes Wars and that's what Ukraine looks like and you know the Middle East is its own complicated situation but there's some of that if we don't colonize like crazy we're all dead because we'll just shrink and go on of business so you could say the United States is a terrible place because we create Wars that didn't need to be created and you'd be right we're a terrible terrible people who create Wars that don't need to be created but it works and it has worked every year that the United States has been a country we've grown faster than other places that don't colonize so we have this big Old Navy that allows us to project power pretty much everywhere that's why that's why um I can have this live stream because we made so much money and inventions and Technology was better and we've got great internet and all the things that you want in life it's because people who are not you and not nearly as awesome as you because you are ethical and moral and other people are not but thank God those inthalo people are doing horrible things in other countries and to other people that if they didn't do the United States would just disappear so here's my dilemma I can be opposed to war but I can't be opposed to the concept upon which the war rides now now there could be Wars that don't give you enough resources and so therefore that's a dumb war that nobody is better off but I don't think you can uh leave out of your thinking that whoever colonizes wins and whoever doesn't colonize loses and I mean loses like you became poor or conquered slaves I mean losing is really losing I mean you lose everything so do I care that the United States is super colonizing now you might say to me Scott if anything you're saying is true why doesn't the government ever say it so that we'll be on their side when they do it all the government has to do is say look let me be honest with you if we don't grow we shrink and then we're all dead the only way we can grow the only way is by having lots and lots of control over these other countries so that we can get their resources as part of our supply chain so we don't want to have these wars but it's the only way to be successful why don't they say that they can't because they would never be able to sell that to the public the public would say um okay but just don't do that because we don't want you to kill people in our name I don't want anybody to kill anybody in my name I don't want to pay taxes to somebody who's going to go kill a stranger in another country on the other hand that's a half opinion a half opinion is you just take a part of the situation and then just pretend that's the whole situation part of the situation is I don't want anybody starting a war in my name with my money that could come back and bite me I don't like War that's a half opinion if we were not this way we probably would already be on the business so uh let let me make a let's see if this analogy Works you've heard the stories about Steve Jobs being you know a genius at everything he accomplished have you also heard the stories that he was the biggest in the entire world like just a dick you've heard that right do you think it would have happened if he was just a getalong guy do do you think if he had not been all those things that you wouldn't want to be and you wouldn't want to support and you wouldn't want to be near it if he hadn't been all of those things do you think that Apple would be apple I don't so I think you have to live in the real world a little bit and know that the hugely terrible things your government is doing is sometimes to benefit their buddies and their cohorts and the people who make the weapons that's definitely a big part of it but it's also probably absolutely CR critical for your survival and they can't tell you that directly so I'm going to tell you it doesn't mean you shouldn't fight to stop Wars because I think that's still the the right impulse there must be other ways we can do things you know it's just not always about bombing stuff but you have to be honest the colonizing is the only reason that Dei even exists and I don't mean as a uh complaint about colonizing it's meaning you wouldn't even have the luxury of complaining about like racial stuff it's not but you wouldn't even have the luxury of complaining about it except that we're a hugely successful country because of colonizing I hate to say that if you understand economics everything looks different but it is you have to look at the whole picture now I wouldn't want anybody that I like to imitate this argument because it just makes you look like a jerk that's why people don't do it but one of my minor values to the world is that I can look like a jerk because I'm already you know cancelled but doesn't make any difference to me so there's your argument that's all I have for today I'm going to talk to the locals people privately because they're special and um the rest of you I will see you tomorrow same time same place so thanks for joining on You.
Tube in Rumble NX and locals I'm coming at you in 30 seconds we'll have a little sip while we're e e e e e e e e e e e e e
our stocks today before we get going
here stocks look like they're uh mostly
up I got killed on
something okay looks like there's a lag
well let's open up our comments and
we're going to have a show oh my
goodness the show you're going to see
today again I'm jealous I wish I were
you so I can watch the show instead of
do doing the show but doing the show is
pretty fun too I got to say
[Music]
good morning everybody and welcome to
the highlight of human civilization
today with a whiteboard if you'd like to
take your experience up to levels that
nobody can understand with their tiny
shiny human brains all you need is is a
cuper muger glass a tanker chel A din 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 dopamine of the
day that thing that makes everything
better it's called the simultaneous Sip
and it happens
now oh that was really
good that was a good sip right there
well good news good news there's a
revolutionary anti-aging therapy um
according to scitec Delhi researchers at
Duke uh and US medical school they
figured out that interlan 11 is uh very
influential in your aging so if they can
disarm this inter luk and 11 which they
think they can do you could live up to
25%
longer now good luck feeding you but
there'll be lots of you imagine if
everybody just started Living 25% longer
I feel like that would destroy
civilization am I wrong about that be
careful what you ask for yeah how would
you feed them all
anyway uh X is going to make a change
that if you block somebody as I love to
do you'll still be able to see their
content but they won't be able to
interact with you which works for me now
I don't know if you have this experience
on X those of you who use it but there
are lots of things that people uh re uh
repost and there'll be some message
where I can't read it and it doesn't say
unblocked it says something like the
user limits who can see their posts or
something like that I don't even know
what causes that but some large
percentage of all the things that people
send to me and say hey look at this I
can't look at um large percentage maybe
5% but that's a lot so maybe that'll go
away
um you know the story about uh the Biden
administration had that $42 billion set
aside to build internet access to all
the rural people and time went by and
nobody got hooked up and you said to
yourself why
why did nobody get hooked up and I
always thought to myself that the
government funding of anything like this
whether it's a local city or national or
State issue I think that 100% of these
are just
corrupt and here's what I assume I
assume that there are too many ways for
a person in government to make money for
themselves even if it's just donations
for the next race by deciding who it's
what
contracts cuz if you've got billions of
dollars to
allocate don't you just find the
friendliest person you can and say I get
a deal for you we're going to give you a
few billion dollars to do this work
you'll be rich Beyond any imagination
but I am going to come and ask for some
favors in return perhaps you will make
large donations to my campaign in the
future Perhaps Perhaps um somebody
that's in my family who is starting a
company might need an investment and
that has nothing to do with me I mean
you your investment arm might do
whatever it wants to do and might
actually like that business that my
cousin is working on so there are a
million
ways to do corrupt things with gigantic
amounts of money that the government has
to give to private citizens for various
Services I think our elected officials
should not be in that business at all I
I think you have to remove the elected
officials from allocating large amounts
of money I'm okay with it making laws
you can still make laws because we can
watch that happen if we don't like it
we'll vote against you but if you're
moving gigantic amounts of money around
in sketchy ways where we can't really
know if you really pick somebody who is
your brother-in-law you can't always
know none of that works if you to write
down that system on paper say all right
I'm going to design the system here's
the system we're going to have billions
of dollars sloshing around with nobody
watching carefully and we'll have our
elected officials decide who gets the uh
you know wins the bids who in the
world who in the world would said that
was a good
idea the only thing I can think of for
how we got to this place is that when
the founders who built the system there
just wasn't that much money floating
around so it wasn't like there were
billions of dollars floating around and
it would be easy to you know to to make
sure that you got a taste of it so maybe
they just didn't think about it and and
you could tell where the money was being
spent just by looking you know maybe it
was just a simpler time but I think we
somehow have to get out of our system
entirely that the people in charge get
to make the decisions so what are what
are some of the problems well some of
the problems is they would spend too
much and there would be corruption those
are the obvious problems you want to
hear another problem well according
according to
uh according to several people including
commissioner Brendan Carr that the F he
said this was the worst abuse of agency
process I have seen in my 12 years of
working at the FCC so I think the short
version of this is that the reason
things were held up so long
to get that funding out and have it
spent so people could get internet in
rural areas is that they were kind of
waiting for their preferred Democrat
vendor to be ready to take the
deal so I don't know the full details
but it looks like it's exactly what you
thought it was it wasn't
incompetence it was waiting till they
could give the money to their
preferred person so that's that's what
it looks like so imagine the choices
that the government had they could spend
far less money and be ready immediately
just by using Elon Musk product but that
would be giving these spare billions of
dollars that the government has sitting
around to the person who might spend
them against them because Elon Musk
might be you know if he has extra money
maybe some of that's
funding Republican related stuff
so at all expense no matter what
happened to the citizens who needed that
internet the Democrats were still
willing to completely embarrass
themselves and do this criminality I
call it criminal right in front of the
whole country as long as it was good for
them and then they did and then people
complained and then what did the public
say did the public rise up and say well
I'm trying to feed my family today but
now You' brought up this issue about the
fcc's uh inefficient and possible
corrupt allocation of bids no you don't
care about that you'd have to be in the
top 1% of 1% of people who follow the
news even to care about that story
because you know I got 50 stories that
are you know at least as
interesting so we don't have a system
that even when this is uncovered and
made public and it's in the news
nothing can really be done about it
because there's no there's no correcting
system normally the correcting system
would be you publish it you expose it
and then somebody's going to have to
make a
correction nothing like that's
happening there's a story there's an
exposure seems pretty clear and obvious
and you know I don't even think there's
any doubt about what happened I'm I'm
not even sure anybody's arguing The
Narrative here and it's just
complicated and it's one of many things
so we're just going to ignore
it so that's our
system anyway um so I would say that one
thing we need more than just about
anything it's destroying all of our
cities is that the decision of who gets
the contracts cannot be the elected
officials they just can't have they
can't touch it that they need to be a
full you know what do we used to call a
Chinese
wall um I I hope that's referring to the
gray wall of China and not some RAC
racist Trope that I don't know I just
used is it racist to say a Chinese
wall I don't know you can't say the the
virus came from a Chinese
lab anyway so uh here's another story
about uh our
system so according to f.org
uh there are some robotss they got some
robots that are measuring the
temperature of the deep
ocean and uh it's the Deep Argo floats
and they they went in and they collected
a bunch of data about the ocean and then
they compared it
to um to other temperature stuff that
they did without these robots so surface
temperatures and other measures and they
decided that uh the ocean is getting
warmer
what do you think I'm going to say about
this story do you know me well enough by
now let let let me just say the most
confident thing I could ever
say we can't measure the temperature of
the
ocean you all know that right so here's
a story telling us that they've got this
robot it's measuring the temperature of
the ocean well I'm sure it got data and
I don't even doubt the accuracy of its
measure measurement
devices but how much of the ocean do you
think they
measured I mean just ask yourself how
much did they
measure and I don't know if you know
this this may come as a shock to you but
the ocean doesn't have
walls I mean you know out out in the
middle of the ocean there are no
walls it turns out that the warmth where
you measured it the moment you're done
measuring it it can kind of move over
somewhere else where maybe it wasn't so
warm
before no if you know anything about the
real world and you've lived in it for
five minutes you know you can't measure
accurately enough the temperature of the
ocean I'm sorry that's not a doable
thing that a human being can do with
current technology could we do it
someday one could imagine that one could
imagine a million
drones that uh periodically drop you
know temperature measurements into a
million different places chosen randomly
and they do it on a regular basis and
then we track it for 30 years that might
be pretty good I don't know but that
might be pretty good do you think we're
doing that do you think we're putting a
million drones down every other day in
random
places
no no we're not we're dropping a robot
to in the in the ocean and then trying
to tell people who were probably in
charge of funding it that it was all
very successful and they should be very
happy they spent their money measuring
the temperature of the
ocean do you remember when you used to
believe stuff like
that when somebody would tell you yeah
we measured the
ocean and you thought huh good job I
wouldn't know how to do it myself but
I'm glad you're out there just killing
it and measuring the temperature of the
ocean no don't believe that uh meanwhile
RFK Jr is saying that uh this is this is
a great just a great way to put
something I tell you RFK Jr is I don't
know how much comes all from him and how
much he has help with speechwriting and
messaging but damn he's good so good
listen to this one quote for half the
price of OIC we could purchase Oran IC
food for every American three meals a
day and gym memberships for every obese
American now there are probably a
million different ways to say the
message he was
saying but somehow he picked the best
one this is really good to to
immediately just put that OIC thing
because it's in the news right so if you
pick anything that's already on people's
minds you're you're automatically good
messaging because you're not making them
think of something you're finding
something they're already thinking about
that's that's a key to good messaging
and persuasion find something they're
already thinking about and then you've
got something to tie your messaging to
so that's what he
did and now you might say is that true
you could purchase organic food three
meals a day for every American for half
the price of
OIC I don't know who knows I don't even
know if you could calculate such a thing
but doesn't it make you want to think
think about it a little while makes you
pause you go really well how much do we
spend on o zpic and so half of that
would that really would that really buy
all that food and how much is a gym
membership anyway so it doesn't matter
that it's exactly you know those numbers
match exactly what does matter of course
is is it directionally correct yes it is
yes it would be great if we didn't have
to stick of drug us to be healthy if we
just ate better and
exercise
so and uh he points out that even the
Danish government doesn't recommend OIC
it recommends a change in diet and
exercise so he says uh it's a Danish
company by the way so it's a Danish
company that makes OIC but the country
it comes from doesn't recommend
it but we're not Danish and it's not a
Danish company and we're we're just
sucking thatu in like
crazy and Kennedy says why are members
of Congress doing the bidding of the
Danish company instead of standing up
for farmers and children very good
question very good
question um related to this is could
vertical
farming help uh help us vertical farming
is indoor farming where instead of just
having a row of stuff on the ground you
build a wall wall and the the full wall
is full of plants and then you can use
the space more efficiently but there are
some thoughts according to Sky Mech
publication um that if you kept fiddling
with the
light and the the water and the
nutrients and the spacing and all that
stuff if you just kept filling with it
you would just keep getting better at it
until this was a real big part of our
food system now remember if you do a
vertical Farm an indoor Farm it can be
placed close to the people who consume
it so you take away all the storage and
all the shipment costs and energy costs
are high so and then apparently you can
do things with regulating the light so
you save a bunch of money at light by
not using all the light right away and
stuff like that so here's what I think I
think you could easily imagine that an
industry will pop up where first of all
all the uh the vertical farming
components are just um easy to buy and
there's competition so You' need some
kind of racks or shelving to get the
height somebody probably already is just
making those and you just say okay I'll
buy these and put them in my farm
likewise uh there have been a number of
developments with light you know indoor
artificial light to get just the right
frequency and stuff like that and I've
also seen stories about people using
music and vibrations to to make their
plants 10 times bigger so I feel
like this is a little bit like indoor
farming is sort of the Model T of
automobiles where if you looked at the
Model T you'd say to yourself I'm not so
sure everybody's going to want one of
these you know if it rains you going to
get
wet what what good is an automobile if
it if you get wet when it rains nobody
is going to buy these modeles but of
course they got better every year and
they continued to get better so I think
vertical farming is the future let's
talk about Diddy the you all know the
Diddy story but what is interesting to
me is how many probably innocent people
are getting dragged into this story now
I'm going to mention some names of
celebrities but I want to be very
careful that my context is telling you
that they're
innocent right they're going to be
dragged into this Diddy stuff but
they're innocent until they're proven
guilty and as far as I know they're not
proven guilty of anything so I'm going
to call them all
innocent and you better you better bring
me some good information to change my
mind but it seems like when you have a
story like this where there's sort of a
let's call it a black box of Badness
where you don't know exactly what
happened behind closed doors you can
kind of throw everybody into it so now
we have
let's see mayor Adams of New York City
so one of the rumors today is that he he
knew too much or he has has some
connection with the Diddy stuff or
blackmail or something there's no
evidence of that none it's just that
he's a public figure he's having some
legal issues it's around the same
time then there were there was a whole
bunch of music Executives who suddenly
announced the resignation right after
the Diddy thing broke so people saying
well that's a lot of
coincidental you know people leaving the
business just at the time could it be
related or is it just because it's the
end of the year and that's when people
like to uh retire anyway I don't know
but innocent to proven guilty poor
Justin Bieber is um he would be a victim
if anything but we don't know what did
or did not happen I worry the most about
him because the circumstantial evidence
looks pretty damning but I think we have
to wait to hear from
him um he may have he may now have the
freedom to actually say what happened
whereas obviously he didn't have the
freedom before so we might find out a
lot from Justin and I I hope he was not
as victimized as people are speculating
then there was this star Aaron Carter I
hope I have the right name he was a
young sort of a Bieber kind of a you
know young fell fellow who was also part
of that Diddy world and he allegedly
died young and some people are saying
well was it did he really die or was he
murdered I'm not making any assumptions
here again I'm just telling you that
people are being dragged into the story
who some number of them probably had
nothing to do with
anything there's a whole bunch of Ashton
cutcher stories apparently I didn't know
this but there's a a well-known story
where Ashton cutcher earlier in his
career was going on a date with somebody
he had not yet met in person I think and
he went to pick her up and she didn't
answer the door uh and later it was
found that she had been stabbed to death
47 times so she was inside she was just
dead by the time he got to his date and
he'd been talking to her you know during
the night
now I have no reason to believe he was
in in any way involved with any bad
behavior however
how many of you have had the experience
of becoming a TV and movie star but also
showed up somebody's house when they
were
slain that's just a weird coincidence
isn't it like how many how many stories
that are different from every story
anybody else would tell does Ashton
Kutcher have you know then he becomes a
successful
investor you know
separately interesting
anyway uh Asher of course he was one of
the ones who stayed at Diddy's house now
we're seeing old videos of him talking
about it in generic terms but now it
doesn't look so generic and you think oh
my God they were trying to tell
us but again I'm not going to assume
that anybody did anything or had
anything done to to them we don't know
yet uh even then I saw today even I'm
not going to name who even mentioned
this but uh today Monica Lewinsky was
thrown into the mix now this is the one
I believe the
least um but the suggestion is that
during the time if you know the
Epstein if you know that Epstein was a
blackmailer and you know that Monica
somebody said she's Jewish which
shouldn't mean anything I I think that's
confirmed because she dated Jake Tapper
and they met on a J date or Jewish
website dating site so that doesn't mean
she's working for is
and it doesn't mean she's you she was
co-opted by Epstein or any of that it's
just that she gets dragged into the
story because she's a public figure and
we don't know everything that happened
in that situation so I would say the
odds of her being a Israeli spy
low I'm not ready to be interested in
that story but U my story is about how
people are getting dragged into it so
she got dragged into it a little bit
today uh Lebron James I guess he was
pretty tight with h Diddy so uh lots of
rumors about LeBron again I'm not aware
of anything he did
illegal um or even knew about so we
don't know and then all of this brought
Kanye back in the news because now the
things that Kanye said that sounded
crazy when you when you listen to them
again through the lens of knowing what
actually happened it's a little less
crazy I'm not ready to say that
everything Kanye said is true and he had
his you know he had his issues with the
Jewish people who's working with I'm not
going to endorse it or you know uh say
anything about that that's his business
but everybody's getting Dragged In makes
you wonder and then uh then 50
Cent you know he seems to be the most
innocent because from early on he was
saying things showing that he's not part
of that but he also said that he was on
a I saw in a talk show I don't know how
long ago it looked reasonably
recent that he said he's
celibate and by choice because uh it's
just basically causes problems when
you're
not do you believe that do you believe
the 50 Cent who could probably have as
much sex as he wanted every day as much
you know all day long uh decided not to
have any
I don't know it could be that he's
pranking he could be
pranking but it might be true it might
be
true anyway Trump uh went to a grocery
store and I think he bought some
groceries for somebody um it was
mentioned that I had suggested he go to
a grocery store and bag
groceries I wish he had bag groceries
because the visual of him chatting with
a real person you know while they're
both standing there and he's deciding
what goes in the bottom of the bag and
you know how many bags you need to me
that would just be magic so it was it
was a good play going to where there're
real people and where the story
naturally is about inflation because
he's in the grocery store same thing
with um pumping
gas you know there are a couple states
where you can pump gas I would still
love to see somebody drive up to the
pump in one of those States I think New
Jersey and Washington or something I
can't remember which states and just
have Trump walk out and give you gas and
then chat with you about the price of
gas I would love that it it would just
be so natural because every time I don't
know if you noticed this but 100% of the
time that Trump talks in
public the the anti-trump Press will
find something to take an a context and
you know some reason to not like it but
every time every time Trump talks to
Citizens it's a home
run and you know I I'm Pro this because
I was lucky enough I've told you too
many times that uh you I spent some time
with them at the White House um in 2018
when he was just I think he was just
Shoring up support among the people that
he knew supported
him and spending time with him is the
easiest most fun thing you'll ever do in
your life to me it was a highlight of
really my whole life um he is so good so
good on the individual Charisma human
interaction level that the more he does
of that it's just magic so this was a
good
play all right let's talk about
propaganda which you call news so
Anderson Cooper and James
caralon and uh listen to some of the
things that that Cooper says
when you think that he's having somebody
on to get some news from the person he's
talking to but you find out that the
person he's talking to is irrelevant
because he's making the news by his
statements in other words he's he's
using the interview just to spread
propaganda this is my
interpretation so here's something that
Cooper said to Carville on the air quote
when you look at the last couple of
months you have uh Donald Trump talking
about Haitians eating cats and dogs dogs
his candidate in North Carolina talking
about himself as a black Nazi on a porn
site he brought 9/11 conspiracy theorist
to a 911 memorial ceremony and then he
says to Carville why do you think it's
this
close now that sounds a little like
payback because this is what I've been
saying so almost every day I tell you
something that's so ridiculously absurd
coming out of the Harris campaign and I
always end with and the polls are tie
because to me it's
hilarious that you could have somebody
who is afraid to appear in public who's
running for president who has no
accomplishments
whatsoever is part of the administration
that everybody thinks failed and that is
close and we know exactly what Trump did
in the first term and if you were to
compare that to what has happened
recently it's I don't think it's close I
one was anti-war one was proar I mean to
me it doesn't look close
but can you tell that the way Cooper uh
phrased the question that it was never
about the question it was about him
saying that Trump is so bad that why
doesn't the public see it yet when we
the news keep telling them here I'm the
news I'm telling you I'm telling you
he's bad why don't you vote differently
yeah that was no news value no news
value nor could there have possibly been
any news value there wasn't even any
potential for news value it was pure
propaganda in which the person who was
the guest in this case
Carville was was really a prop he wasn't
even part of the process he was just a
prop now what is what is Carville most
famous for he most famous for helping
Clint didn't originally get elected and
for using the phrase It's the economy
stupid so he was the smart one who said
people care about you know buying
groceries you if you keep it to that
you're going to win and then Clinton did
do you do you hear Carville say that
anymore do you do you hear Carville say
it's the economy stupid do you think you
stop being about the economy when the
economy is actually more important to
people now than maybe just about any
time except the Great Depression
no Carville can't even say the thing
that made him
famous just think about
that when they bring on the worst than
Watergate guys I always joke about that
they make sure that the worst than
Watergate guys say something was worse
than Watergate but uh when Trump said he
wants to eat a cat was that worse than
Watergate oh that's worse than Watergate
so much worse than
Watergate but you bring on Carville
who is the famous it's the economy
stupid but he can't say
that do you know
why do you know why Carville can't say
it's the economy
stupid
because it's the economy
stupid he can't say it because it's true
just just hold that in your mind he
can't say
it because it's true
and and Trump uh dominates in the
Public's mind about who would do a
better job in the economy so the moment
you put uh Carville on the air and then
Carville says what made him famous which
was always true and remains maybe even
more true today nope can't say it
because it's
true so then uh here's here's the second
Anderson Cooper propaganda
thing um and what you should watch for
is how the question is the only thing
with
substance and then the guest that he has
on adds absolutely nothing right here's
so here's what happens um so Cooper
starts out with uh you stating that what
he would consider an obvious truth I
guess so he stated it like you know
everybody knows this so here's the thing
that everybody knows that propagandist
Cooper told his uh his dumb viewers
he said that uh obviously hand counting
would have more
errors that does that track with what
you know that hand counting would have
more errors than machine
counting the entire reason that this was
talking about Georgia just changed the
law so that in Georgia the ballots will
have to be handc counted they're not
going to use machines for that so this
of course if it's true that Georgia was
massively cheating using the complexity
of their various systems then the hand
counting would eliminate their ability
to do
that why would a news
organization be
opposed to somebody getting read of all
the complexity that lowered The
credibility of the
result and putting in the system that
everybody who knows anything about
elections thinks is the better system
the paper ballots especially when you
have somebody watching you count them
let me ask you this if you've got a
Democrat and a and a republican watching
every ballot get counted which is how
you should do it how many mistakes are
you going to
make is the Watcher going to go to the
bathroom or
something I don't know and then if you
don't get the right answer you can
always just count it again so you have a
perfect audit because you just recount
it you can't do that with the current
system
so here's what uh so first Cooper says
it's sort of an obvious that hand
counting is bad that is the opposite
from true but he stated it like it
doesn't even need to be discussed it's
just you know everybody could tell hand
counting I mean really how how are you
going to compare like a stupid human to
a computer obviously the computer is
going to be better at math I mean
seriously right no the hand counting is
by far the more reliable system and that
why it's used it's used specifically
because it's more
reliable that's the only
reason anyway maybe because it's cheaper
in some
cases uh so then the guest who is there
to add value said stuff like uh blah
blah blah they're trying to carry
Trump's water they ankle biters
conspiracy theories uh there basically
Mega this he didn't have anything on the
topic nothing he didn't say well the
Studies have shown that this is bad idea
nope well here's the logical reason why
this can't work nope he simply insulted
Republicans he he was a guest to talk
about this technical issue of ballots
versus you know
machines and all he had was some insults
to Republicans he didn't even he didn't
even try to offer a reason why anything
was better or worse or
preferred and
then Cooper ends the segment by
reminding the audience that we do know
the 2020 election was
fair and everything was
fine which is a
lie because we don't have a system that
could be audited completely and
therefore there is no way to know it was
fair we can only know that nobody proved
in the court that it was unfair in time
so one lie that hand counting is
unreliable and then he ends it with
knowing that we we know for sure that
which cannot be known which is the
quality of the prior election can't be
known there's no way to know it the only
thing he could have done to make it
Dumber is to say our elections are as
accurate as our ability to use a robot
to measure the temperature of the entire
ocean
should have thrown that in
there well what is the most ignored
story of 2024 that also was the most
important well here's my
nomination now I think this is all
true so I have to say that first it
could be ignored because maybe I have
something wrong maybe it's not true but
I think it's true I saw the documents I
I didn't see anybody just debunk them so
the claim is and
uh you you see this in a bunch of places
but uh the claim is that uh we now know
in writing because we have the document
that Trump gave clear instructions to
the Pentagon before the January 6 riots
that he wanted to make sure that they
were fully staffed and they had all the
all the defensive military assets they
needed and they were all ready to go so
that there was no violence that day now
that one fact if that's
true completely eliminates the entire
Democrat um reason for running against
Trump their main thing is that January 6
proved that he's an insurrectionist and
now we have written proof written we
have the documents to show that he
absolutely was trying to make sure that
there was no violence how exactly was he
going to take over the country with with
troops that were not loyal to him I mean
they were loyal to their senior officers
and they were there to protect the
capital from his
people in what way do any of the
narratives make sense about it was some
kind of an
Insurrection now I should be clear that
and so my main point is this is the most
ignored story of
2024 two questions for you my audience
is this true is is this story
true that we do know for sure that Trump
was trying to organize and put effort
into it and that uh the help was denied
by maybe Millie because of Optics when
it came down to it
so if this is
true everything we've been told about
January 7 6 is a lie and also the
January 6 commission if they were aware
of this and they left of the report they
all need to be in
jail is that too far the January 6
commission if they knew this
fact they knew that this document exists
and they didn't include it in the
process they need to be in jail in jail
like seriously they need to be in jail
like right away because that would be
one of the biggest crimes I've ever seen
in the history of the United States non
non-financial crime it would be the
biggest one
you know not counting something that's
violent hurts people although in a sense
this was this did hurt people you could
argue that not giving Trump that
military assistance was the reason
people died so I guess you did kill
people through this political
process so
yes um to me that looks like election
interference by the j6 um committee and
I think they should be charged and
jailed for that and I really think they
should be jailed for that you know I'm
not I'm not a fan of using lawfare to go
after your other side so there's a lot
of things that may or may not have been
said or done by let's say Harrison Biden
that even if they look pretty illegal I
feel like we'd all be better off if
maybe we just moved on and try to make
sure it doesn't happen in the future
whatever it is but the committee the j6
committee I I don't give them the same
same kind of analysis to me they just
look like
criminals that's what I see I think they
should be in
jail anyway um Jim aost on CNN had to uh
he had to confess that the latest New
York Times poll said that Comm K Harris
is support among Latino voters in
Arizona is down 11% since last month but
then he added this this is Jim aasta and
CNN quote if you believe this New York
Times
poll so they get a poll they don't like
and then he adds if you believe
it wouldn't wouldn't you have to add
that for every
poll it seems like you should say that
for every single poll if you believe
that but only the ones I don't like I
guess you've probably heard that the uh
attempted assassin the second one on the
golf course that Ryan Ruth guy or
ralth uh he wrote a letter I don't know
when he wrote this maybe after he got
jailed admitting he failed in trying to
kill Trump but he offered a $150,000
reward to someone who could finish the
job and then our department of
justice decided that you should see that
letter
why why did we really need to see that
because you could argue that if if you
think we should see anything well maybe
we should see everything like everything
you know like show us right away as soon
as you know but we know they don't do
that we know that when it's an ongoing
investigation that they hold the facts
back as long as possible
um but why would they publish this when
it obviously seems like it creates
danger for the president well to me it
looks like the reason was to create
danger for the president now I don't
know that I can't read any minds but I
don't don't really know the second
possibility like what would be the other
reason for doing it wouldn't wouldn't
every one of you have consider this
inappropriate to put in public if you
got the job tomorrow
of being in charge of whether somebody
saw that picture saw that letter or not
wouldn't you suppress
it because I don't know what news value
it had other than bringing up the idea
that somebody could get a
Payday well related to
that
um You probably heard that uh Matt Gates
is talking about uh apparently we know
there are five assassination teams in
the United States now where he gets that
I don't know but I do think that he
doesn't make it up so I think he's got
some inside knowledge about that and if
there are five teams and allegedly one
of them is a Ukrainian based
team shouldn't we stop all
funding to
Ukraine if we have information that a
Ukrainian assassination team is on
American soil or some of them shouldn't
we immediately stop funding if we knew
it
if it came from the government I can't
imagine it wouldn't come from the
government um and then we have the
interesting connection that that uh
ralth guy the second attempted assassin
spent a bunch of time in Ukraine it was
pro-ukraine and was trying to do
everything to help Ukraine and would
imagine that taking out Trump would help
Ukraine so the question that Gates asks
which is a good question is
this guy couldn't possibly have been
operating alone and if we know there's a
Ukrainian hit
team do we have everything we need to
know I mean it's not
confirmation but if anyone was on a
Ukrainian hit team it would have been
this guy because if you're a smart
Ukrainian hit team you don't use a
Ukrainian to hit the president if a
Ukrainian pulled the trigger
things aren't going to go well for
Ukraine you all know that right and
Ukraine would know that so same with
Iran if there's an Iranian hit team the
last thing they want to do is be the
Iranians that pull the trigger that's
not going to happen so we've got two
cases of people who got spun up rather
quickly to be attempted assassins I
wouldn't be surprised if Kooks was
influenced by
Iran and uh
ralth was influenced by
Ukraine or some factors within Ukraine
not necessarily zalinsky but can't rule
it
out so there's that uh the national
pulse points out that the Washington
Post is trying to uh remind us that it
would be totally normal on Election Day
if Trump is way ahead when you go to
sleep but then all those mail and
ballots get counted and then and
suddenly Biden comes from behind so just
like last election we're being told that
the normal most credible thing in the
world is for a last minute dump of Biden
votes that feels exactly like we're
being set up for a
steal in fact I don't even have a second
way to think about it now you could
imagine that if it were all legitimate
they'd still need to say it to make sure
that you didn't think it was
illegitimate but man we are at such a
low trust point in
Civilization that when somebody does
something that's so obviously could have
that other meaning you know maybe not
the positive meaning I just I'm so
biased toward well that looks like
you're setting us up for a
steal I don't know it but every part of
my body feels like that's what happened
so that's not ideal
um then in other news uh Trump joked
that he has a person what he called a
personality defect he says I don't like
anybody that doesn't like
me now he is so good at making news with
little things that don't matter like
almost anytime he words things is just
perfect writing this is so it's hard so
hard to look
away because on one hand he didn't say
anything cuz you and I have the same
feeling right how many of you love the
people who think you're not most of
us mostly we like people who like us I
know I do if somebody likes me you'd
have a hard time talking me liking you
that's for sure but if you don't like
me you think I'm going to say you know
this person doesn't like me but I think
they're awesome there are some
situations in which I do that there are
some cases where people hate me but it's
not returned CU I think they hate me for
reasons that you know they're just
confused if they actually knew real
facts and still hated me they're not my
friend but if they if they've been
brainwashed by somebody I you know I
take that into
consideration but anyway uh I think he's
just like it the rest of us but he says
it in a more provocative way meanwhile
in Arizona there was this Democrat uh
campaign office that uh somebody shot up
so just a few bullets nobody was there
and I think that whoever shot it could
tell that nobody was there maybe it was
at night or something but isn't that
convenient that just when the
conversation is hey you Democrats keep
saying things that get our president
shot at and they don't have a good
answer for it because it doesn't seem
equivalent in both directions and then
oh oh a mysterious person shoots at a
Democrat office in Arizona huh well
certainly we can add that to our
narrative to say that the the rhetoric
coming from the right is so bad that
there's some rightwing lunatic probably
a white supremacist who grabbed his gun
way too many guns as you've been told by
the Democrats went down to that office
and tried to kill some Democrats and
weren't they lucky that none of them
were in the office at that
time does this feel like a real story to
you or does it sound like it's a little
too on the
nose as in it's the perfect story at the
perfect time with no
victims that's a little
convenient it's a little bit too
convenient now I can't rule out the fact
that there was just a crazy person with
a gun who doesn't like Democrats wasn't
trying to hurt anybody but was just
being a dick and thought I'm going to
put a couple of bullets through their
building just to show him I hate him no
I can see that so I'm not saying it's
not I'm not saying it's impossible that
some Republican thought ain't nobody's
home I'm going to put a couple of
bullets in their
house I'm not in favor of that in case
you couldn't
tell um but it's just a little too close
it's just a little too perfectly timed
perfectly The Narrative that the
Democrats want sorry I'm not going to
buy it I'm not going to rule out the
possibility that was exactly what it
looks like some Republican wanted to
cause some trouble but I'm not going to
buy it you're going to have to give me a
lot more to make me believe this
story all right meanwhile Putin is
allegedly quoted saying that uh he
accused Western leits of
cannibalism uh claiming that they have
grown used to filling their bellies with
human flesh and their pockets with money
he further warned that this is a ball or
cabal of vampires nearing its end H now
cannibalism I think he's gone too
far don't you I mean we don't we don't
actually have
cannibalism I mean somebody blamed the
the Haitians but you know there's no
evidence of anything like
that but are we getting closer to
it let's go to the Whiteboard and find
out are there any are there any forces
in the United States that are moving us
toward cannibalism let's say the price
of groceries is
high and people's ability to afford them
is
worse at the same time that people in
general are getting
shittier and
uh at least the Democrats don't care how
many Republicans die and probably is the
same on the other side for some people
now I think we're probably about
here we're halfway to
cannibalism so if the food continues to
get more expensive and your fellow
humans continue to suck even more than
they do now you won't mind eating a few
to save money on groceries so I'm going
to debunk Putin
we do not have people eating cannibal we
do not have the elite eating people in
this country as far as I
know uh but we're heading that way we're
heading that
way anyway um Congress has this
bipartisan plan they're promoting to
figure out how we could quickly adjust
if there's a Mass Attack on Congress and
a bunch of our leaders get killed at the
same time
huh
huh what would make that so important
lately hasn't that been something that
would have been
important from the moment the atomic
bomb was
invented why is it suddenly in the news
and suddenly has bipartisan
support well maybe it's just this is
when enough people wanted to do it so it
could be just natural maybe this is the
time but uh I love this comment by Liz
kroen on X who said uh on this story if
every member of Congress who is guilty
of crimes related to pedophilia sex
trafficking and or treason was charged
it would not only wipe out most of
Congress it would wipe out many of the
government's employees maybe the mass
casual event they're preparing for is
justice do you think it's
possible that the Diddy situation goes
so deep that it could take out like a
quarter of Congress or
something I'm going to say no I I don't
think that's a risk but is there
something that Congress knows that we
don't could it be the Swarms of drones
or making it possible for somebody to
take out big parts of Congress could
there be some credible
credible um stories that maybe somebody
has a weapon of mass destruction already
in the
country what are we not being
told all
right uh there's a plan according to New
Scientist there's a plan to refreeze
some of the Arctic Ice you know the
climate change uh people are
concerned that uh the ice is melting and
then the uh the water will go up too
high and uh so they figured out a way
they're testing it so they'll pump some
seawater uh and I guess they'll pump it
back onto the the ice and it will kind
of quickly freeze and then they'll build
up the ice so that the ice melting is
compensated by the amount of water
they're putting back and dies does that
make
sense Scott is so naive
let let me let me take a uh just make a
comment to the who are
in the comments at the
moment you don't need to tell me that
some of our leaders are puppets if I
don't mention it every time I
mentioned them it doesn't mean I'm not
aware that there are many forces behind
the leaders who are the ones in charge
so you don't need to be a
and just say Scott is naive he
does not understand that are puppets no
I'm just not going to say it every
time I mention their name
okay if if you're new to this maybe this
will be a surprise to you but if you've
been watching me for a while there's
nothing I say more often than we don't
know who's making the decisions so just
stop being a dick for half a second try
to add something to the world instead of
being worthless like you are
now thank
you at least come up with some real
thing just not some he's naive Scott the
one that bothers me the most is Scott
needs to learn from me and take a half
day class in everything about uh uh
chemical
something no I don't no I don't you're
just being a dick so just stop being a
dick if there's something you think I
should know put it in the
comments if you know something you could
do that if you don't know
anything you can't put it in the
comments and you can just say oh Scott
is so naive he's so naive he does not
understand the things that I know
because I know things I read a story
once all
right so anyway there's a plan to
refreeze the
ice
meanwhile uh according to real climate
science there's
a record increase in ice
in
September so one story is we've got to
figure out how to make more ice the
other story is my God there's a lot of
ice being made in the first three weeks
of September now it has been going down
the amount of ice so September is an
outlier so you can't make any judgments
about you know one month but um Mexico
this will seem like an unrelated story
but watch me tie it all together so
Mexico is building a alternative to the
Panama Canal so it's going to be a land
route across a thin part of Mexico so
you could unload your boats onto I guess
trains and then the trains would take it
to the other side and if they can get
the economics right and build this thing
they can compete with the Panama Canal
now you might say but why not just use
the Panama
Canal what what's wrong with the Panama
Canal well there are a few situ few
problems with the panamal canal at the
moment number one there are a lot of
ships that want to go through so you
know there's a just congestion number
two uh the Panama Canal is not as
efficient as it used to be because the
water levels are too
low wait
what so in the real
world the Panama
Canal which is all about the ocean
I don't think they're pumping in the
water from a lake are they when when
they do the uh the canal what what do
you call those things the the little
things that fill up with water so you
can raise the ship I forget what the the
locks um the that's
seawat are you telling me that down in
Mexico they're running out of sea the
the water level is too low for the
panamon canal to work well what happened
to all that all that ice that melted in
the you know one of the things I think
about the ocean is that once the water
gets in there you can't really stop
where it
goes again no walls in the ocean now I
do understand that there are other
factors that can make the sea level
change for
example uh you know the moon's position
and you know if it's warmer in some
places the the just the warmth itself
cell makes everything larger including
the water um volume I guess
so you know there are other factors
besides just the melting ice but it is
kind of interesting that somebody's
spending a lot of money to figure out
how to create more ice at the same month
that we have a record amount of ice and
Mexico is complaining about not enough
ice has melted to give them water in the
ocean I guess I added the ice part they
didn't complain about
that anyway um attorney Jeff Clark who
was one of President Trump's lawyers
during the January 6
era um is pointing out that uh there's
no evidence that KL har has ever tried a
case like in
court now she was the boss of some cases
that happened uh because you it was her
job to be the The Da but there's no
evidence that she ever tried a
case now that doesn't mean she didn't
but Jeff Clark set it in public and and
invited people to prove prove him wrong
and nobody did so there's actually no
evidence she's ever prosecuted anyone in
court herself she was the boss when
somebody did
it Andrew Cuomo you remember him once
the governor of New York but then
disgraced by Meo
isms
um and by the way when I say
disgraced since I call myself disgraced
I'm just using it IR
ically anyway he said in a speech
recently that quote defund the police uh
was the with the dumbest words ever
uttered he said that in Brooklyn so it's
good to know that KLA Harris's uh idea
one of the things she's famous for
saying is according to one of the most
prominent and smartest
Republicans the dumbest words ever
uttered so I I think seeing more people
crossing over their party this time than
ever before aren't we because the the
Democrats do in fact have a whole bunch
of former Republicans who are endorsing
Harris mostly just anti-trumpers and now
we see I feel like there's a whole bunch
of people who had at one point
identified as a Democrat who switched
over I've never seen so much switching a
whole bunch of switching what what's
that about do you think that's just the
general people wising up that their own
team is lying to them so maybe the other
team is lying less I'm not sure what
that's
about but it probably has mostly to do
with you know Trump being unusually
provocative meanwhile according to just
the news uh Nome was bragging that some
new crime stats came out and he said uh
in a post new violent crime dropped
Across America last year and said can't
wait to see the Fox news coverage of
this
well maybe you shouldn't be so happy
about how they're going to cover
this because it turns out according to
just the news that uh that was for the
country it wasn't for
California so
um so property clim property crime did
decline even in California but uh
violent crime is up 3.6% and the value
of cars stolen in California was over $2
billion last
year do you know how much that is $2
billion dollar worth of automobiles were
stolen in one year in one state $2
billion so you know I I had to like take
measures to make sure my car didn't get
has stolen never had to do that
before now it turns
out that a large portion of the increase
in violent crimes uh was in one County
there was one County what was it about
this one County that was
different as a famous Soros funded
prosecutor who is the subject of a
recall movement I don't know if it
worked um so the Soros
prosecutor comes in and then my County
this is where I live by the way this is
my County so my County went from just
about the safest place you could ever be
at least in my portion of it because I
think it includes Oakland which is the
least safe but where I
live I chose it because it was the
safest place I could go and at the time
I could go anywhere I wanted well I mean
I had reasons to be in Pleasanton
but so it turns out that Soros says
destroyed my County with his funded
prosecutor and uh it's such a big effect
that it's affecting the stats in
California and might even affect the
national
race because if people are saying that
the Soros prosecutors and the Democrats
are causing this they're going to vote
accordingly so the the Soros prosecutor
in my
County might can might be enough to get
Trump elected
basically well speaking of uh getting
elected Scott
presler um who has been registering
people to vote like crazy and focused on
Pennsylvania because that's the
everybody says is the most important
state whoever wins that will probably
win the election um not for sure but
it's it seems to be a key State or the
key State and he says that as of
yesterday
he flipped luzern County in Pennsylvania
by flipped meaning that more registered
voters are Republican than Democrat
now that's a really big
deal it could be that Scott presler is
the one who decided who got
elected isn't that
weird you know I you always hear this uh
one person can't make a difference thing
Really Scott presler may have just won
the election for Trump and saved the
world he may have just done this by
himself I mean he got lots of people to
help but they wouldn't have been helping
if he had not been the organizer and the
force of nature that he is so can one
person change the world he may
have he may have Isn't that
cool and he did it all the right way
followed the rules worked hard
you know was a good person tried to make
everything better now I we don't know
how this is going to go
yet but yeah one person can change the
world they
can well the telegram app as you know
their CEO was picked up in France and
they were going to charge him with stuff
if he didn't do what they wanted but uh
one of the things I guess they wanted
was that U now telegram has agreed it's
going to provide more data to
governments including the users IP
addresses and phone numbers um only if
there's a valid legal
request which is you know pretty big
category and that's according to the CEO
now as uh Mike Benz likes to remind us
uh this is how the United States
controls Free Speech it gets uh
International
entities to do on our behalf what we
can't do legally because we're supposed
to be the first amendment people
but they do need to you know our
intelligence people apparently need to
control all forms of
communication and
uh this is part of it so you should
assume that all communication channels
are accessed by the
government um completely at this point I
think that's the the fair
assumption uh meanwhile New York Post is
reporting that uh you may you may have
heard this story that Soros George Soros
was trying to buy 200 radio stations uh
that would go to 165 million
Americans now Soros owning a radio
station and that much media just
automatically raises every red flag in
the world because if you can control the
media and communication you kind of
control the country now you could argue
but but but rer Marduk he's not aner
americ and he owns Fox News and they're
very influential and that's a good point
except as far as I
know um rer Murdoch wants what's good
for
America I'm pretty sure that he never
wakes up and says you know I want to
destroy America today it looks like the
opposite like he'd very much like
America to do well because it's you know
one of the places he has a lot of
business
and so but you know the the uh the way
the government works it's going to take
forever to approve a thing like this I
mean it could take take up to a year to
get a thing like this approved so I
guess he's just going to have to wait a
year while the government chugs through
and tries to do his thing and all this
money's on the line but the poor bastard
he's just G to have to wait a year just
like
everyone oh update uh three Democrat
Commissioners vot out voted the two
Republican
um on the FCC and said that he can speed
that up and uh the foreign Company
ownership of the US radio stations
that'll be fine it'll just make an
exception yeah it's not we don't
normally allow that to be more than 25%
stake but you know that's fine we'll not
only approve it um which we wouldn't
normally approve but we'll rush it we'll
not only approve it which is an
exception because we're not supposed to
approve that much foreign ownership of
an American entity like that uh media
entity and so that just
happened by a partisan vote of Democrats
out voting
Republicans now you know why there will
be no outrage about this
story I'll be a broken record because
it's complicated you'd have to know the
players and all the implications and
you'd have to know the history and you'd
have to know it's unusual you'd have to
know what the law is that they're taking
the exception to and then you'd have to
compare it to the 50 other stories that
are complicated in in the news today you
don't have enough outrage for this one
this should
be a source of great National outrage it
won't be because first of all the
Democrats control the media and second
of all we're just too busy just too many
outrageous things this won't even get
your attention so Soros is basically
controlling the the crime level in my
town and now he's going to take over the
minds and directly brainwash American
citizens and we're just hey yeah go
ahead we'll make an exception no
problem meanwhile Trump says he plans on
deporting over half a million um
migrants um and I I think he's talking
about the Haitians specifically um ship
them back to Haiti as soon as he's in
power now I don't know if that's a good
idea or a bad idea uh again because it's
complicated if if uh if 80% of those
Haitian migrants already have a job
because there are companies that are
just you know begging for low-end
employees I don't know if they should be
top of the list if if they're already
employed and the company needs them but
you know the
20% that don't have a job there must be
a reason for that so maybe maybe maybe
our priorities should be different you
know if I were to predict what would
really happen if Trump gets elected I
think he would first just you know close
the Asylum
door and the moment they stop coming
in you're you're uh comfort with the
world is going to completely
change so you think that there are two
issues that are basically tightly linked
one is that too many people are coming
in every day and the other is that too
many are already here but if you solve
the first one about too many people
coming in every day you're concerned
about the ones who have already come in
even 20 million of them will instantly
go to
half because you're saying okay we we'll
we'll chug through this you know we'll
by the second generation will probably
be fine you know so you would basically
be able to live with
it um now let's say that uh Trump
decided not just closing the Asylum door
but that he would in fact be very
aggressive in deporting I think he will
be but where do you start if you put all
of your energy into just deporting the
people who are clearly criminals it
would take all of your resources and
that's where you should put them nobody
would argue nobody would argue with
putting all your resources 100% of it on
just getting criminals first and that
could take a few years if you put a 100%
of your resources into just the
criminals Years it'll take years and
when you're done with that let's say
it's three years from the beginning of
the Trump presidency let's say he's got
one year left and he doesn't want to go
out as a monster
and the complaining about the number of
immigrants who are already here now they
maybe they've been working for five
years and have a job and they're paying
taxes how much are you really going to
want them to be
deported some of you are going to say
yes on principal I get it some of you
are going to say they're criminals
they're all criminals so I got to send
them back but they're not all criminals
remember the ones who come through the
Asylum gate which is the big one
they are legal because the Asylum
process processed them and they're just
waiting for the process to continue now
you might not like it but most of the
people coming in are coming in Under the
Umbrella of US
law as it's interpreted at the moment so
my prediction is that he will go hard at
deportations but it will take all of his
energy to keep the Border sealed and
send the criminals home and by the time
he's done with that there just won't be
much energy for the people who lived
here for three years really wanted a
better life their kids are learning
English they have a job right your your
level of being angry will just sort of
get you know uh
decreased if they lied to get Asylum
that is illegal
yeah but it's also a reasonable opinion
let's say you came from any country that
has a
cartel how hard would it be to say you
know I'm afraid of living where the
cartel is is that not good enough do you
have to prove that you got a specific
threat here here's the note where they
said they'd kill me if I stay in Central
America oh Asylum how about well they
haven't given me a direct
threat but where I live it's just so
violent that I can't even walk outside
without risk of getting killed so I want
Asylum do you get it I think the answer
is yes you just have to say that in your
opinion your life is at risk nobody's
going to I don't believe anybody
analyzes your life to find out what the
degree of risk is now your real thinking
might be Economic
Security but if you also have a
legitimate dangerous situation which
would always be the case wherever that
wherever the people want to leave to get
Economic Opportunity it's so it's also
going to be
dangerous I don't know it it would be
hard to prove in a court of law that the
only reason they came was for economics
when they when they're in the middle of
a dangerous
hole I I think if I were them I'd try I
would claim Asylum and I know I hate
those people I don't hate them at all so
people who want a better life I don't
mind that we get a bunch of
them as long as we can control it the
the the question about immigration as
you all agree is having too much of it
and the wrong
kind you want to make immigration simple
and make everybody
happier I thought of this one today now
this could never really happen in the
real world but it'd be awesome if it
could you bring in everybody who's got
an IQ over 120
and that's
it you we'll take we'll take all you
have from every country whole
country no problem you get an IQ of 120
you're in we don't care where you came
from do you do you know what a
Powerhouse the United States would be if
we put an IQ limit on
immigration and we made it higher than
average so we imagine bringing in 10
million Geniuses a
year I think we'd be okay
okay yeah we could bring in 10 million
Geniuses like literally you know people
who were in The 140s if we wanted uh
maybe there's not enough of
them Scott is an open border
proponent now did anything I say sound
like an open border
proponent there just so many trolls
today on the on the comments no I'm not
an open border proponent
I uh I might be worrying about it less
than you but I'm definitely not an open
border
proponent well the us is going to send
quote additional troops to the Middle
East so things are looking dangerous
over there that's according to uh
Pentagon Press Secretary General Patrick
Ryder his brother Richard Ryder could
not be heard from some call him dick
Ryder in light of the increased tensions
they're sending uh people there well
that sounds
bad and uh according to pichy Keenan
who's a a commenter on um a pachy says
uh the federal government's highest
priority is stopping Trump so he can't
stop the wars uh I am a believer in that
narrative The Narrative that the primary
thing that the United States is doing
behind the curtain is making sure that
we have maximum Wars but I don't think
that they only do Wars to sell War
equipment here's let me uh let me give
you a let's say a
reframe that might break some of your
brains and I haven't completely thought
this through so this is sort of new
thinking would you agree with the
following statement if you're looking at
let's say a business a company is it
fair to say that companies are either
growing and that would be healthy or
they're
shrinking which is unhealthy and they're
going to go out of business um but
things almost never stay the
same like the the rarest situation for
any any big complicated thing the rarest
situation is just always the same so
things are either improving or getting
worse would you agree so far that the
nature of things countries organizations
businesses are either growing or they're
getting
worse very few things just same every
day so I would argue and you're not
going to like this at all that the only
reason the United States is successful
as successful as we are is because of
colonization and that if you weren't
colonizing you couldn't grow because in
the days of serious colonizing it was
about resources some of those resources
you know were human trafficking of
course so it's horrible
but um
colonization allows you to get more
resources from other countries and you
might have to control those countries to
get the
resources now you could say to me but
Scott that is unethical and terrible to
which I say yeah I can see your point
it's unethical and terrible to the
locals in many ways but compare it to
the
alternative the alternative is that
China colonizes them or Russia colonizes
them somebody's going to colonize
everybody who can be
colonized there's no world in which you
leave them alone the and when there's an
exception it would be like
Switzerland because what we need their
chocolate why does anybody need to
colonize Switzerland is we're going to
take their mountains and bring them back
home uh we're going to we're going to
take their weather and bring it with us
there's nothing to colonize in
Switzerland they don't have a damn thing
that we need that's why they can be
neutral if they had anything we needed
we'd be starting a war with them to get
their because and here's the part
that's going to be hard for you to
accept if the United States isn't
growing we're dead
you grow or you die you don't have a
steady state option because even if you
did stay steady state other countries
would grow faster and then they would
have economic and other control over you
so
colonizing and controlling other
countries which includes Wars and that's
what Ukraine looks like and you know the
Middle East is its own complicated
situation but there's some of that
if we don't colonize like crazy we're
all
dead because we'll just shrink and go on
of
business so you could say the United
States is a terrible place because we
create Wars that didn't need to be
created and you'd be right we're a
terrible terrible people who create Wars
that don't need to be
created but it
works and it has worked every year that
the United States has been a country
we've grown faster than other places
that don't colonize so we have this big
Old
Navy that allows us to project power
pretty much
everywhere that's why that's why um I
can have this live stream because we
made so much money and inventions and
Technology was better and we've got
great
internet and all the things that you
want in life it's because people who are
not you and not nearly as awesome as you
because you are ethical and moral and
other people are not but thank God those
inthalo people are doing horrible things
in other countries and to other
people that if they didn't do the United
States would just
disappear so here's my
dilemma I can be opposed to
war but I can't be opposed to the
concept upon which the war
rides now now there could be Wars that
don't give you enough resources and so
therefore that's a dumb war that nobody
is better off but I don't think you can
uh leave out of your
thinking that whoever colonizes wins and
whoever doesn't colonize loses and I
mean loses like you became poor or
conquered slaves I mean losing is really
losing I mean you lose everything so do
I care that the United States is super
colonizing now you might say to me Scott
if anything you're saying is true why
doesn't the government ever say it so
that we'll be on their side when they do
it all the government has to do is say
look let me be honest with you if we
don't grow we shrink and then we're all
dead the only way we can grow the only
way is by having lots and lots of
control over these other countries so
that we can get their resources as part
of our supply
chain so we don't want to have these
wars but it's the only way to be
successful why don't they say that they
can't because they would never be able
to sell that to the public the public
would say um okay but just don't do that
because we don't want you to kill people
in our name I don't want anybody to kill
anybody in my name I don't want to pay
taxes to somebody who's going to go kill
a stranger in another
country on the other hand
that's a half opinion a half opinion is
you just take a part of the situation
and then just pretend that's the whole
situation part of the situation is I
don't want anybody starting a war in my
name with my money that could come back
and bite me I don't like
War that's a half
opinion if we were not this way we
probably would already be on the
business so
uh let let me make a let's see if this
analogy Works you've heard the stories
about Steve Jobs being you know a genius
at everything he
accomplished have you also heard the
stories that he was the biggest
in the entire world like just a
dick you've heard that right do you
think it would have happened if he was
just a getalong guy do do you think if
he had not been all those things that
you wouldn't want to be and you wouldn't
want to support and you wouldn't want to
be near it if he hadn't been all of
those things do you think that Apple
would be apple I don't so I think you
have to live in the real world a little
bit and know that the hugely terrible
things your government is doing is
sometimes to benefit their buddies and
their cohorts and the people who make
the weapons that's definitely a big part
of it but it's also probably absolutely
CR critical for your survival and they
can't tell you that directly so I'm
going to tell you it doesn't mean you
shouldn't fight to stop Wars because I
think that's still the the right
impulse there must be other ways we can
do things you know it's just not always
about bombing stuff but you have to be
honest the
colonizing is the only reason that Dei
even exists and I don't mean as a uh
complaint about colonizing it's meaning
you wouldn't even have the luxury of
complaining about like racial
stuff it's not but you wouldn't
even have the luxury of complaining
about it except that we're a hugely
successful
country because of
colonizing I hate to say that if you
understand economics everything looks
different but it is you have to look at
the whole picture now I wouldn't want
anybody that I like to imitate this
argument because it just makes you look
like a jerk that's why people don't do
it but one of my minor values to the
world is that I can look like a jerk
because I'm already you know cancelled
but doesn't make any difference to me so
there's your argument that's all I have
for today I'm going to talk to the
locals people privately because they're
special
and um the rest of you I will see you
tomorrow same time same place so thanks
for joining on YouTube in Rumble NX and
locals I'm coming at you in 30 seconds
we'll have a little sip while
we're
