Episode 2688 CWSA 12/13/24

looks like Tesla's up a little bit otherwise kind of flat but uh that's not why you're here no you're here because it's going to be an amazing show let me pull up your comments on locals and then we're ready to go is everybody having a good Friday the 13th so far you're lucky feeling lucky good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization not counting those drones but if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny shiny human brains all you need is a cup or marar glass tanker Chels is Stein a can't jogur flas a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now for the unparallel pleasure of the dopamine end of the day the thing that makes everything better is cold that's right simultaneous hip go that was so good it makes me think the price of coffee should be higher oh wait the first story is is that the price of coffee is higher than it has been in 47 years well you know Trump calls uh oil Liquid Gold I think it's coffee yeah I think coffee is the liquid gold uh let me let me put it this way if you said to me Scott I cannot give you any oil today I would say really but I could have it tomorrow right yeah you can have it tomorrow but today no oil I'd say all all right all right whatever but if you came to me and said Scott you can't have any coffee today I'd say I'm going to kill you but I'd be kidding because I'm against violence well you would not be surprised to know that there's a big Advance out of Korea South Korea obviously um in um batteries they found out that they can add water to a lithium metal battery and increases increases the lifespan by 750.

using only water I I love the fact that nobody thought of putting water on it it's like the most abundant element in the universe all right not the universe but recently on the planet so you don't need to know any details about that I always tell you the battery stuff in the context of if Battery Technology becomes let's say five times better everything changes and then there must be like 20 or 30 things that are going on every one of them would make batteries five to 10 times better so there is a real interesting world coming of robots and self-driving cars and everything else with batteries that last forever meanwhile according to study finds uh scientist are getting close to having a pill that cures diabetes so Mount Sinai team is working on it so uh they they figured out the mechanics of it so they're pretty sure they can do it they just need to test it on humans so it's going to take a while but I wouldn't wait for that meanwhile Tesla launched what they call their actually smart summon feature in China now I think what that means is you can summon your car from anywhere and it will just drive to you so that you can get in it imagine never having to park your car again can you even wrap your head around that imagine that wherever you're going your own car drops you off in front of the door and then you tell it to go park itself and it just looks for a parking place and then when you want it you just summon it and it goes from its parking place to wherever you're waiting now that's pretty amazing um but looks like China has the function where they can call it to you um I don't know if I don't know if a Tesla uh full self-driving can go find a parking spot I don't know that it can do that um and also at the same time musk says that uh the Tesla full self-driving uh drove a car from the LA to San Diego with zero interventions can you imagine going from LA to San Diego without ever touching the steering wheel that's pretty amazing you know I I've told you before that my my uh retirement assumption is that I would is that I could just go sit in the car and tell it to take me on vacation and I say something like hey car I haven't spent much time looking around in Arizona let's go to Arizona and then the car figures out you know uses its AI to figure out what hotels all stay at along the way and you know if it's time for me to have lunch it would be amazing I just do my own work while I'm going somewhere all right uh meanwhile so uh the SpaceX headquarters which had been in some other name city is now officially named star base so it's Starbase city so we have a new new city in the America called Starbase all right now I would love to know how star base was designed because didn't Elon Musk have a lot to do with designing the whole city it wasn't it a nothing until he decided it was a city so I'd love to know what technique he used to design it to make it livable CU I would imagine some of that is transferable to other places we'll see meanwhile the Vigilant Fox is reporting over an ex that Neil Degrassi Tyson he was uh he was on CNN he was uh warning about the lack of trust and experts so see how out of time this sounds to you imagine that this happened yesterday I think so this is a yesterday opinion and and ask me this does it feel like this is a 10-year-old opinion like it doesn't apply anymore but I'll read it to you all right so this is Neil degrass Tyson he goes uh uh doing your own research uh could have ultimately lethal consequences if you're making decisions that affect your health and well-being does that sound like a 2024 or 2025 opinion it feels like sort of out of time doesn't it but he goes on this is a problem going forward it's the loss of people's trust and experts um I I need to clarify that a little bit I don't believe that the problem is that the Public's loss of trust and experts it's not the trust that's the problem it's the experts that would be like saying you know in World War II the real problem was people lost trust in H no no no the problem wasn't they didn't lose trust in him the problem was Hitler he was the problem and the problem with me is not that I've lost trust in experts it's the experts it's the experts so it doesn't it doesn't even sound like this came from our time it it feels so off anyway um by the way there's no right answer cuz he's completely right that if you ignore the experts you're probably going to die if you ignore all of them but if you follow the experts you're probably going to die so if you got two ways you're probably going to die following the experts and ignoring all the experts somewhere in the middle where you you call your shots and say well I feel like it's safe enough to follow these experts at least until I find out I shouldn't have but maybe these other experts I'll take a pass and wait this one out so that's probably your only way of surviving these days got to make your own call which experts to believe which is almost like doing your own research so there's basically no way to win speaking of a loss of credibility uh John no is writing in Breitbart that uh Leslie stal and Van Jones were on some I think a lot of you saw the clip on social media it was some event where number of news people were yaking about what happened in the election and uh according to uh Leslie and Van Jones um that Trump's crushing reelection victory has driven much of the corporate media into despair uh no actually that's I think that's John no's take on it that uh both Les stal and fan Jones are having a bad time with the the fact that the Legacy Media has been disgraced um and part of the thinking I think on that clip was that it's the change in technology that caused it so in the 60s the technology allowed you to do um allowed you to have a television show uh in the 20s it was easier to do a podcast so the thinking is that the technology made it possible for all these people to compete with the mainstream media and that's what happened all the extra competition do you think that's the full story no as NTI points out it's the hoaxes it's the hoaxes if the mainstream media had been telling us the truth or even or even if they'd been trying to tell us the truth but God I'm wrong we'd still trust them I wouldn't need a podcast nobody know no one would need to check the internet for news if the mainstream media were credible I mean if I watched it and said oh at least they're trying to get that right you know they're not perfect but they're at least trying to get this right when I watch the news I don't get the impression they're trying to get it right I get the impression they're trying to you know pursue a narrative and a propaganda and brainwash you I don't get any sense of trying to get it right but when I watch a podcast depending on which podcast it is I often think oh there's someone who's you know humble about how much they know and how much they don't know but is trying to get it right we we'll use Joe Rogan as the universal reference everybody knows Joe Rogan very clearly you know I can't read mins but the impression one gets very clearly wants to get it right sometimes he gets things wrong like everybody in the world but at least when I watch him I think he's trying to get it right I don't get that at all on the with the regular media well and what is the outcome of all this lack of credibility in the media CNN according to the post millennial CNN uh lost in ratings to the Food Network recently CNN lost to the Food Network now who could have predicted that that would happen now let me see what do people like better delicious food even if they're just watching it or even if they're just watching it answer it's a tough one I think people like delicious food even if they're just watching it so yeah that's not big surprise food is better than uh meanwhile MSNBC had a guest on who said that Mark Zuckerberg donated $100 million to Trump's inaugural fund um but it was $1 million now $1 million is a lot of money that's a lot of money but $100 million is a completely different story and the MSNBC host just let that that go so if you were if you were watching MSNBC you think that Facebook donated hundred million to just one ceremony for one day I don't think I don't think I've been watching uh Zuckerberg for many years he's not that dumb turns out he's actually quite brilliant and a really good leader a million dollars is a smart investment in you know friends 100 million would be just bad crazy so I can't believe that the guest didn't catch himself on that um so I think Med this was on the X account media lies they picked it up you should follow them media lies uh it used to be Comm Harris lies but now it's more generic so Biden did a bunch of Pardons as you already know about he pardoned uh 39 people yesterday today including some say Chinese spies do you think it's true that Biden pardoned Chinese spies how many people think that's real it's on the Internet it's on social media do you think he really pardoned Chinese spies it's a hard one because when you're talking about pardons anything's possible but no he did not pardon any Chinese spies it is true that the United States had before yesterday they had negotiated a prisoner swap so I guess we had some of their spies and they had some of our spies and so that deal was already done but that wasn't pardon it is true that the Chinese spies will get out of jail but part of a prisoner swap which is fine all right uh let's see what else is happening let's check in on uh identity Politics as I've told you Dei kills everything it touches so Biden does all these Pardons and uh the news today is talking about how uh black women are really mad because he didn't do enough for black women so uh representative Presley Democrat in Massachusetts um thinks he should have done more to reduce the racial disparities and he had uh I guess he made a campaign promise to reduce the number of incarcerated Americans but he didn't reduce it and uh it seems to me this is yet another example of how the Democrat Party doesn't really have a chance of recovering at the national level locally they're still fine but at the national level this is going to happen every time they do anything because I think the you know every demographic group is going to say hey what did your recent change do to help my group well you know we're not always about helping every single group every time yes but wasn't that money you could have spent on my group well yeah I mean we do spend money on your group too but right now we're spending some money on this other group but that could have gone to me as soon as you have all this ident there isn't any possibility of unity so the Democrat Party should continue to experience disunity until they can't do anything and I think the Comm Harris um debacle if I can call it that if you count you know Biden staying in too long dropping out too late not really having time for a primary I think every bit of that was just Dei and if you think that was like you know a weird year and something happened that one time but you know you're not going to see that again no I think it's the opposite I think that the Democrat Party is completely destroyed and there is no way to bring it back at the national level because if they get rid of identity politics they're done if they keep identity politics they can continue but not as a competitive entity so if they want to be non-competitive they can do it or they can get rid of identity politics and then what point do they have they they built their whole their whole deal is based on that foundation so uh Benny Thompson is he was one of the uh January 6 committee people who called it an Insurrection according to the post millennial uh Benny said that he would accept Biden's pardon um he was the chair of the January 6 committee actually he would accept Biden pardon for his actions there uh if it were offered now I don't know if I'm misinterpreting this but I thought I saw Jonathan Turley say that there's no obvious crime with the January six committee they might have been Liars they may have not done their due diligence they may have been unethical they might have been immoral they might have been bad in a whole range of ways which is what I saw they seemed like very very bad people in terms of what they were doing to the country but I couldn't identify anything that was specifically illegal I'm no lawyer so I'm not the source for that so but I think Jonathan turle said it'd be hard to find anything that was you know really a crime and so I'm in favor of uh I think I'm in favor of them getting pardoned the reason I'd be in favor of a pardon for the January 6 committee is only if there's definitely no crimes and because I don't want law fair no laware but the best the next best thing to a criminal some kind of criminal action against them if there is no crime the next best thing is to give them a pardon with Biden giving them a pardon because when somebody gives you a pardon everybody assumes you're guilty am I right everybody assumes you're guilty so I'll take yeah give me the pardon so uh if you're not sure you can find a crime with any of these january6 committee people let's let's give them the worst case scenario anyway a pardon and then the entire world can say well why would you need a pardon and that would be a good question turns out the answer is simple there there were no identifiable crimes but you never were worried that you know there be some lawfare so yeah I'm weirdly in favor of pardoning them if there's no obvious crimes it's a big F it might be somebody who knows of crime all right here's a test of your fake news spotting mayor Eric Adams met with Tom homman and I guess they were on the same page about the need to deport the dangerous illegal migrants and Eric Adams later talked about it he did a little press conference after he said quote we have 500,000 children who have sponsors in this country that we can't find now the implication is that half a million children are being trafficked basically but it's not what he said he just said there are half a million that you can't find let me put that in context and just for the dumb people in case there are any NPCs here nothing I say next is meant to condone trafficking of children I only need to say that for the truly dumb people who may have slipped in here the the rest of you already know that but here's some context um as citizens of the United States you know who were born and raised here there are now about 73 million minors in the United States people under 18 73 million of them at any given moment how many of them are not being supervised maybe 10 to 30 million so yes it's bad that there are half a million children that we don't know what's happening with them that's bad it could be very bad it's also true that we have 73 million who are not watched that much do you know what you kids doing on the phone do you know who they're texting do you know what they're doing after school for two hours before you you see them again children are largely unsupervised all the time and the trouble that they're getting in even if they have a proper parent they're still largely unsupervised so yes it's a it's a very worrisome problem that half a million children um are unaccounted for but if you don't know what percentage of them are absolutely fine you don't really know how big the problem is now you can say of course if there's even one child who's a victim that's too many and you'd be right but if you want to understand the story in context I would ask the following question and I don't know the answer so this is just the question you would ask is the danger to the half million comparable better or worse than every citizen who's under 18 because they all have access to infinite trouble they all have the potential to be victims of just damn near or anything and I don't know I mean what what if we found out again if there's even one person being a victim it's too many and we all agree on that but what if that what if we looked into it and the half a million missing it was just bad paperwork and that almost nobody is being trafficked I don't know that that's the case by the way but here's the here's my general warning I always tell you that when you hear a number without a percentage it's propaganda and when you hear a percentage without the raw number it's propaganda and when you hear any number and of the larger context to which it belongs yes propaganda now it's good propaganda I think it's good propaganda because he's trying to get the country to pay more attention to the the risk to the people under 18 and we all like that so I'm glad he's doing it Eric Adams uh is a uh he's a frustratingly interesting character because he does a lot of stuff I really like but other stuff I may have a different opinion about so yes we should find out exactly what's going on with the half a million and yes we should close the border so that this never happens again but if you automatically think that of that half million more of them are being traffic then maybe are victimized who are just regular uh citizens I don't know it might be true but it's horrible no matter what the number is we can agree on that there's a story that I don't believe yet according to the Daily wire and according to most of the news everywhere uh there reports that look credible that that the Biden Administration is selling off the unused border wall materials and they're selling it for scrap and they're doing it really quickly and the implication is that Biden doesn't want Trump to succeed because it would be easier to just put up the wall that you already own than it would be to procure it and and then start building it do you believe that here's why I don't believe it it's too on the nose two on the nose really do we really think that Biden would try to sell the wall that even Biden was trying to put up right before the changeover now I do believe that there will be some dirty tricks relative to the change over which would not be that unusual but probably low-level dirty tricks um there's something wrong with this story and here's what's wrong I would need somebody who's involved with selling it to explain what's going on so I will just put out this you know possible explanation it's possible that there's a reason that some of the wall components needed to be sold for example maybe they were stored in a way that deformed them so they were too hard to put up maybe they rusted maybe they're there's something else maybe they have a source that they think is just a better wall so it's not that they're saving money but they think they can procure a better wall than the one that we had so I feel like there's something else to the story but do you get the same do you get the same feeling when you read it that it's just too perfect you know what a perfect story Biden hates the wall until he's president and then he builds some and the moment that Trump is going to be president again he sells off the parts it's a little too perfect I don't know I'm not buying it I'm not saying it's false I'm not calling it fake I'm saying that with the information I have nope I'm not accepting that on on face value um here's another little little more of fake news so unusual Wales is reporting that uh Trump's team is looking into significantly reducing merging or even eliminating top Bank Regulators um says the Wall Street General so they're talking about uh doing things with the FDIC and the department of government oh yeah the FDIC so the FDIC is what um ensures customers accounts and most of us feel that that's a necessary very valuable thing but the news is telling us that Trump's you know Doge people might want to get rid of those departments Is that real news or fake news let's see if you get this one right real news or fake news the uh Team wants to get rid of the department that does the FDIC and maybe some other stuff so therefore banks will be relatively unregulated do you think that that's true no it's not true it's not even a little bit true it's totally not true here's what's true they are definitely looking at reducing the bureaucracy they're definitely looking at are there places where two or three agencies should really be one they're definitely looking at that here's what they're not doing as far as we know looking at not having f the I Insurance on accounts there's no reporting that says they're considering that because it would probably be dumb but getting rid of the many departments to administer it and simplifying it but still making it available might be exactly what you want to do like how many people do you need in that department probably it's bloated so probably if you combined it with something else and kept one management you'd save some money so no if it is not true that anybody on the Trump team is considering getting rid of Federal Deposit Insurance it is true because it's common sense it's true I I don't have to do any research to know this is true they're looking at all the places that they can combine departments to reduce costs so I think that's a real story um so Trump rang the uh opening bell was yeah opening bell to New York Stock Exchange yesterday and people were chanting USA USA and even MSNBC said they'd never seen the energy there like that and of course he was ringing the bell because he's also on the cover of Time Magazine and let me say this about Trump we're seeing a different Trump he's a different guy and if that's surprises you you maybe haven't been paying attention because he's quite adaptable even even at his current age and here's my take a trump who has not yet won whatever it is he's trying to win let's say the president say can be pretty contentious he can be pretty Scrappy he can go too far he can make you cringe a little bit and go oh that was a little too far even even if I like him wouldn't have gone that far but Trump who has already won and is in his last contest because he can't be president after this that Trump he is great just just sort of watching him simply being in his moment you know ringing the bell and watching the people react to him he has nothing to prove in terms of getting the job so once he's out a job application mode he is really good at just being you know being the thing so I think I think he will be there's a really good chance that he would go down as our greatest president now it's going to be tough to beat the Louisiana Purchase and stuff but you know if you happen to be in the right place at the right time you get some lucky breaks although it was pretty smart to buy the Louisiana Purchase so depending on the events that are outside of you know Trump's control there's a lot that could happen could go well could go poorly but he has a solid chance of being the best president we've ever had and maybe even a model for other countries anyway so how did MSNBC cover uh Trump being on the time cover well you won't be surprised to know that Joy Reed uh compared him to Hitler you could give them any story and it's a reason to compare them to other now it is valid it is valid to point out the Time Magazine has had uh Putin and Hitler and Stalin caini and the point of it is not who's awesome but rather who is significant that year so it's about who's significant not who's good or bad and you know I get the point right you know you I think I said the same thing which is you know it doesn't it's not an endorsement by Time Magazine it definitely isn't um but the fact that you would spend your whole show or a segment of it just making this big visual comparison to dictators they are so worthless and broken it's funny and it was my best laugh of the day as usual I'll tell you if you haven't learned to watch MSNBC a little bit you can't turn it down and watch it for like an hour you'll your brain will fry but when you're watching the Clips if you're just look looking at them to see what is you know what would happen if you had a channel that was devoted to only hiring people with severe mental illness who didn't know it I guess uh it would look like that so when I watch Joy Reed or um Rachel mow I just see mental health problems I'm not really seeing opinions per se meanwhile James Carville yeah I tell you that guy's becoming really interesting just because he's so unfiltered but Carville said uh he found out that there are people on his team I guess the Democrats says there people who don't mind losing election if it makes them feel better and Superior but he points out if you if you aren't winning you aren't and then he watched the Food Network CU people like food more than they like even if they're just watch looking at it all right uh other people being weird Adam kiner uh talking about Donald Trump's uh vow to get retribution so he was one of those January 6 committee people um and uh kin kininger warns that uh if Trump tried to get retribution he said quote if there is a day the Democrats decide to do the same thing to Republicans you won't have a right to complain about it to which I have to ask the following question did we change the meaning of the word retribution because retribution means that you're the one who did something bad and somebody is paying you back for that bad thing you did it doesn't mean that he just decided to do something bad to you no it's it's called retribution and retribution is even part of the question because it is assumed that the January 6 committee did something that nobody should have done to anybody so now if you start the fight you should not expect the other person not to finish it if they can and if they finish the fight and that causes you to go back and get stronger and come back and fight them again that's okay it's not you know it's not a world but no you don't get to take a free punch so Adam yes I understand that if he gets retribution the Democrats will find a way to do it to him but can you tell me what Democrats could have done to Trump that they didn't literally try they tried to impeach him they tried to put him in jail somebody tried to kill him twice at least so are you telling me that you can make that situation go away if Trump decides not to get retribution nobody's buying that it the the Democrats pushed every illegitimate button that they could touch to try to get rid of trump if he does an non-legitimate thing which is find something they did illegally and prosecute that's perfectly acceptable in fact he should give it back as hard as he got minus the assassination part of course but uh I'm not in favor of lawfare or violence of course but yeah he should he should use every tool he has that's ethical and makes sense and you know not not as going too far don't want him to go too far um but my sense is that Trump will probably just not have the enthusiasm for retribution I think it' just be too much work for what you would get you wouldn't really get anything from it so I would be in favor of pardoning kining or to to make him look guilty uh so Accord apparently according to CNN Biden isn't inclined to issue issue any pardons to people who uh used Firearms or drugs or had drug charges Tapper points out that uh that's after Hunter Biden was pardoned for firearms and drug charges now is that a good gacha that uh Biden allegedly doesn't want to give pardons to people with firearms and drug charges but he just gave a pardon to his own son for firearms and drug charges so is that did CNN get a good gotcha there gotcha no no this is again Thinking by analogy this is not an analogy every single person watching the story knows that the only thing that mattered was that Hunter Biden was his son and we all get it we all get it you could hate it you could not like it but we get it Father pardoning the Son we get it CNN this isn't a gotcha but what's interesting is that Jake Tapper on CNN he played it as a gotcha like he played it as you know a a clear let's say inconsistency with Biden that maybe should be noted no that shouldn't be noted there's no story here whatsoever man man helps his son you don't need to ask any extra questions do you do you need to look for any inconsistencies if somebody helps a family member no that's that's sort of what the whole family member thing is about of course he did let's talk about the drones mayorcas uh and the FBI put out a document saying they had no evidence uh about the reported Dr.

Drone sightings posing a national security or Public Safety threat or having any foreign Nexus he said that none of the sightings so far have been corroborated by electronic detection which they're making available to the locals so how do you interpret that so Homeland Security and the FBI they have no evidence that the sightings are National Security or public safety risk or have a foreign Nexus what's missing there's a lot missing isn't there how about we checked with the military and it's definitely not one of ours and it's definitely not one of the vendors who is trying to make a deal to the military don't you feel like that's sort of obviously missing wouldn't that be the most obvious thing you want to say it's one thing to say it's not Homeland Security and it's not the FBI and that they don't know anything about it it's another thing to say we asked all of the departments in our government and they all said it's not us that's what I want to hear I want to hear we checked with everybody who could even remotely possibly be involved with a drone and they all assured us that it's not them now even that could be a lie but it's so obviously omitting the most likely people who would be involved in it which is the military I didn't think it was the FBI I didn't think it was Homeland Security I think I thought it was the military they vendors maybe not the military per se what do you make of the fact that none of the sightings have been corroborated by electronic detection what I make of that is nothing because the drones many of them were flying under radar so that wouldn't catch them and by the time the person with the fancy machines shows up the sightings are probably over and some of them are just airplanes and some of them are private drones and stuff so it does bring up the question if this drone stuff is nothing but Mass delusion and yesterday I would have said it's not mass delusion but there's Mass delusion on top of it meaning that at a minimum 95% of the videos and photos you see online are fake and minimum 95% is the other 5% real I don't know but I know there's no detection of it I know I haven't seen a picture that looked real yet so I have personally spent a lot of time looking at videos and photos that are allegedly in in New Jersey and other places I haven't personally seen anything that looked real and what I mean by that is I look at the video and I go okay an orb how hard would it be to make a video with a fake orb it'd be real easy so I just I don't know I I would say that I'm going to move the the possibility of it being literally nothing like there's no drones the possibility that went from yesterday I would have said 10% but I'm going to raise that to 30% I think there's a good 30% chance that there's not been a single drone that that there's not been a single unexplained car siiz drone there's a good 30% that's never happened but people are wildly reporting that it did that would be a mass hysteria and mass hysteria are so common so common that you just because it sounds unlikely don't rule it out for that it sounds unlikely but it's the most common thing that happens in society massas we do it all the time this could be one but I still think there are enough of the um inperson and sightings and stories that make me think there's something up there um even if 95% of them are Just Aircraft and private drones and nothing to worry about there seems like there's something up there the fact that the government is so sure that they're not dangerous pretty much I can I take as a confirmation that the government is involved and they know what they are anyway the the news on it is ridiculous and social media report reports all look absurd to me so I'll say it again I haven't personally and I've looked at a lot of the videos I haven't personally seen anything that looks to me like oh that's that's a real unexplained phenomenon not yet it's just blurry pictures um the NASDAQ where stocks go to get listed for trading one of the places um they got slapped down by a court because they were trying to require the companies that were listed on their exchange to have Dei in their corporate boards so NASDAQ was trying to regulate the companies that sign up to be on their their listing by saying you've got to have at least a woman on the board and either somebody who is A different race Andor lgbtq so so I wonder how many boards were tempted to just say all right guys we got a woman that was easy but as far as I know none of you are lgbtq is that correct and everybody's like no we're not you know darn it all right we're either going to have to replace one of you with an lgbtq so I can be listed on the NASDAQ or one of you is going to have to change your lifestyle can I get a volunteer to be lgbtq just while we do the paperwork and then one will be like yeah I'll do that sure what what do I have to do do I have to have uh sex with somebody who's my same sex no you just have to say you are because it's really not about what you've done physically it's about how you identify so we've got to fill out this paperwork so I need you to identify as gay for could you do that for 10 minutes 10 minutes yeah I can give you gay for 10 minutes yeah all right paper work filled down all right obviously the Dei stuff and the identity stuff is ridiculous obviously Dei destroys everything it touches this would have destroyed the NASDAQ because companies would have said I'll just list somewhere else or it would have created a competitor imagine if the NASDAQ just put itself on a business by becoming so hard to work with that everybody said well I think I'll go to the New York Exchange or somebody else says I think I'll do a startup of a new Exchange that's even possible but uh the court slapped him down and said that they're not the entity that can tell companies what to do in that specific way so they don't have that power so they lost that um did you see that the inspector general report came out on the FBI's involvement in January 6 and of course the news predictably split into uh two movies on one screen screen on one screen the fact that there were 26 what do they call them confidential human sources so people who were not on the payroll of the FBI but had already you know before January 6 had been sources so they're basically spies within right-wing groups so 26 of those confidential human sources but not FBI agents this is important not FBI agents but confidential human sources were in fact in the crowd and so how was that reported by the political left the political left said see there's another conspiracy theory by the right that's been debunked there were no FBI agents in the group so I guess we can put that to rest can't we so that's one movie the other movie looked at exactly the same news and said well there it is there's proof that the f was behind the the trouble that was happened on January 6 which one of them is Right which movie do you like do you like the movie where it was proven that the FBI had nothing to do with it or the same information proving that they were totally culpable it's the same information the story is the same how can you how how can we be reporting it as opposites it's just what we do it's crazy so let me tell you my take on this my take is this why would you believe in the IG report they're make they're making you think past the sale think past the sale so if you're thinking did those 26 confidential human sources do they have anything to do with the bad behavior or if you're thinking well maybe the FBI lied and some agents were involved how would we know then you're thinking past the decision here's the thing you shouldn't think past why would you trust an IG report if you don't trust the FBI why would you trust the people who gave the information to the you know the FBI giving the information to somebody else to talk for them right here here's me as an FBI agent um I've got a a bunch of things here that that I claim are true good try FBI agent uh just because you say it's true that doesn't mean I think it's true right that's just you who I don't believe saying this stuff is true sorry sorry I'm going to have to independently find out if that's true so I'm going to hire an inspector General the Inspector General goes and talks to that agent and says I'm trying to find out what's true and the FBI get says this is true the same stuff I was trying to show everybody else and the IG says let me look at that all right I'll put that in the report where do you think the IG gets their information by asking the FBI so there shouldn't be that much difference between the FBI telling you themselves and the FBI telling the Inspector General who tells you what the FBI told them do you do you think the Inspector General had their own confidential sources inside the FBI and they're they're working through their moles to find out what was real and do you think that the FBI if they had been involved in something you know terribly illegal or unethical on January 6 do you think they would have written it down in their documents so that when they did an email search it like oh there it is it's right in this email you just said you have 18 there and you told them to cause trouble no if they were involved in something that bad overthrowing the United State States government they're not going to write that in an email it's not going to be in a text so how in the world would the IG know anything the IG would know exactly what the FBI told them and if they were involved in any bad behavior I'm pretty sure the smart play would be don't tell the Inspector General now here are the things that are not ruled out number one that the FBI told the confidential human sources you better cause some trouble there or else you won't be our source anymore and you'll go to jail I don't remember that part and if they did tell the confidential human sources that would the confidential human sources sell out their protector probably not um so now I I have no credibility in the IG report no credibility in the FBI um and we wouldn't know if there was any Freelancers so let's say you you really nailed them down you say all right FBI um you've admitted to the confidential human sources but how many agents did you have zero there were no agents all right here's my next question did you work with any external people who used to be in this line of work but now are Freelancers so that it didn't look like the FBI was behind it well I can't speak for everybody in the FBI but I didn't like how would you even know if somebody associated with the FBI or the CIA or some intelligence group did some freelancing for the benefit of some Democrats how would you know there's no way to know now and the inspector general report is just worthless I think however here's my larger point I don't think it's important because everything that we know uh about January 6 just depends on whether the security was there so if it's true that there were some people associated with the FBI in one way or another who are trying to make things worse I don't thing matters it doesn't make much difference to the larger narrative the larger narrative is that it was allowed to happen meaning that Trump asked for more security they were fully aware that there was a problem coming and they chose you know various people Democrat leading chose not to respond in a way that you and I think would be sufficient now that's the whole story if there were also people in the FBI trying to intentionally cause trouble I don't know that it matters because whether somebody was intentionally doing it or it happened organically none of it would have happened if there had been reasonable security Andor a reasonable election or an election that looked reasonable the only thing we know is it looked it looked rigged we don't know that that that it was so I don't know I wouldn't obsess about that I would concentrate the security part and I want to ask you a question have I ever gone too far in talking about the FBI involvement in the January 6 crowds because my memory of it is that I've largely avoided that topic because I didn't think it was terribly important and I didn't think we'd ever know for sure uh does anybody have any memory of me saying something that's now debunked because I want I want to fact check myself if if I ever went too far and said oh clearly that was full of FBI agents well then I have to debunk myself but I don't think I did I think I held back so and the reason I say this it's important for you to check my work because a lot of what I do is make predictions all right well Hamas is acting like they might be willing to temporarily allow Israel's military to be in Gaza in return for some of the hostages but not all of them and the thinking is that Hamas might have been waiting for somebody to come to their rescue but once asbah and Syria fell and Iran was crippled uh they knew nobody would come so now they might be getting more flexible and there's some question about whether they you know try to do it before Biden's out of office Etc here is my take let me teach you something about negotiation this is not one Trump is going to teach them what a negotiation is and here's what I think he's going to do he's going to say releasing releasing the hostages is not a negotiation you're going to do that or we will destroy you with no mercy and as well as will kill all the all the hostages they they'll all be dead but you'll definitely be dead and you will lose everything forever so the way you negotiate is you say these things are negotiable but there are some things that are not hostages are never negotiable because the minute you negotiate for hostages you're going to get more hostages negotiating for hostages increases the number of hostages not right away but once they learn the business model Works more hostages you absolutely have to kill the hostages if you want it to stop meaning you have to say to Hamas here's the deal if you want anything you got to start with giving us all the hostages and then we can talk but without the hostages every one of you is dead Gaza will never be for the Palestinians there'll never be a Palestinian State it'll never be a conversation and you will never be free in any sense we'll take everything from you everything so if you treat the if you treat the um the hostages as a negotiation you just make everything worse I don't I think Trump's the only one who might even understand that and and the way he's talking he did exactly what I said remember he said if those hostages are still there when I get sworn in they will be held to pay he means that that's not a bluff here's what I would not expect that he gets in office and just starts acting like it's a regular negotiation and the hostages are part of it no way the hostages cannot be part of a negotiation that's your opening bid to be allowed to negotiate if Hamas wants to negotiate that's the ticket you pay that first that cannot be part of the negotiation anyway um I guess Trump was asked if he trust if he trusted Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and he had the best Trump answer quote I don't trust anybody thank you you know every once in a while he says something that's so obvious and so common sensical you wonder why you've never heard it before from somebody in his position because typically you wouldn't want a president to say I don't trust anybody but if you live in the real world you've watched the people that you trusted that were on your inner circle selling books Your Inner Circle and you know people that you trusted and then they're go they go out there and they're talking crap about you on the news no he shouldn't trust anybody he should not trust anybody well I'm going to take that back he should trust his family I think he can trust his family but beyond that trusting other people's pretty sketchy so yeah I think he means this as a little bit hyperbole you know not really 100% but I like the fact that he said it out loud it was a good answer anyway so there's talk about Israel and maybe the US taking out Iran's nuclear program so I guess their nuclear program is allegedly you know within months of being able to create a nuclear weapon because they've already reached they've refined enough materials that they they could make 12 bombs or something like that now here's my question do you think we'd know that if they did make a weapon if somebody is within months of being able to make a weapon don't you think they already made one or or is building the actual weapon what Iran would know if anybody found out that it would require immediately taking out their leadership just because they made the weapon it could be that Iran knows that if if they made one and and they have to worry about spies because Israel must have great spies in Iran by now uh if anybody found out they actually made one then I think it's just a green light for complete destruction of the regime would you agree but they'd have to they' have to get it when that first one was like just brand new before it could be operational and launched you know cuz first you'd build it on the ground before you put it on a missile or something so if they get it before it's on a missile and they know for sure where it is and that it got built they would do a lot more than destroy the weapon they would have to take out the regime and nobody would even blink because they'd say all right yeah nuclear weapon you had to do that you know people would still criticize Israel but they would completely understand you would completely understand so it could be that there's something keeping ran from taking that last step but what I worry about is when the News tells you that it's only a month away that really means they already made it you just don't know it yet right that's what it feels like I I worry that they already have one and they just they're good at hiding anyway apparently Trump's team is considering helping Israel if they were to go after the nuclear program uh I guess we have better bunker Buster bombs that we could make available um and now that the Syrian airspace is cleared um Israel can fly over Syria without worrying about getting shot down and uh they can fly over Iran because they've already taken out Iran's U anti-aircraft but somebody said but you still have to go over a part of Iraq um does Israel feel that Iraq has no anti-aircraft that would be a risk I feel like there's a lot of bad stuff in Iraq I don't know enough about Iraq to know if it's really dangerous or not anyway um we'll keep an eye on that the uh the Trump team thinks that maybe just economic pressure might be enough I don't know I don't know I don't think anybody wants Iran to become a failed state so as bad as the regime is they don't know what would replace it and what kind of chaos that would cause so we'll see I I think that Trump will try a grand peace deal something that would bring Iran into the let's say the the world where everybody can be happy it won't be something they'll love but maybe you know I I think Trump could meet with the Ayatollah what do you think do you think that could ever happen could you imagine uh Trump actually meeting with the Ayatollah to negotiate I think it's possible I wouldn't bet on it but it's possible he's the only person I can imagine doing it but who knows who knows all right that's all I got for you today um I'm not sure if there's still time to order the dilber calendar for your gift giving let's say today a it's a close you know I I think there's a good chance if you ordered it today You' get it before Christmas day but we're getting to those last minutes if it did come it wouldn't wouldn't be long after Christmas so you'd still be good um all right did I forget any big news yeah yeah as long as you get it before January 1st you won't be too unhappy current report is 25 agents now the current report is 25 informants we don't know if they were acting as agents or they were agents um oh hello according to Politico fedman is looking at a 2028 run oh man he'd be trouble honestly he'd be trouble um remember I said that the Democrats can't possibly recover unless they have an unusually charismatic uh candidate I don't think he can make it because he's white so they'd have to be desperate to you nominate a white man um it'll be fun to watch hey Joshua I see your your post on me you must be watching watching right now um the Duke lacrosse lady finally admitted she was lying that's that's like a really old story where there's a woman who accused Duke lacrosse players of horrible Behavior here Federman a piece of trash you say too weak to be president he's just good at politics all right ladies and gentlemen um that's my Friday show for today um I think I hit all the big topics but I'm also feeling like I missed something uh a lot of people talking about that I don't even want to talk about it um all right boy the grock does good pictures of me now um yeah the man cave it doesn't have a set time but usually the man cave is somewhere in the 4:30 to 5:30 range to start uh Biden pardoned a pedo judge well so I decided to not talk about the people who got pardoned the specific crimes because the entire point of the presidential pardons is that you and I think they should still be in jail now they have their reasons and they don't have to give them what I worry about is it pardons are money laundering bribery situations where somebody goes to a politician and says you know my brother-in-law's cousin has been in jail for drugs I'd be making a really large contribution to your campaign if he got pardoned so I suspect that the mysterious pardons are all personal favores and or have a financial element to them imagine if somebody went to Hunter and said Hunter um I'll invest $100 million in your investment fund he doesn't have one but if he did um if my if my cousin's brother gets pardoned how would we ever know why that guy got pardoned we'd never know and there wouldn't be anything written down it' just be a verbal promise so I suspect that the pardons are a completely corrupt process but um I called you anti-semantic yeah okay I don't care um anyway you get the point uh sounds like avoiding the Dr the Pirates off of Africa now uh was a question not a guess all right I don't know what you're talking about um let's see would Iran want to test their nuke before announcing the have one you can't really test one without people finding out oh Janet Yellen said she was sorry over the presiding over a $15 trillion debt sorry oops oh yeah Americans are sicker for longer you know the reason I didn't do that story is I don't trust the data um I saw in the comments somebody said so there's a story that uh that Americans stay sicker longer than other countries but I feel like there's context missing number one if you're in some poor country maybe you complain less or or maybe you die from the thing whereas the American stays you know treated longer uh I just don't trust the data on that one um let's see look for people who are not charged on January 16 and you can figure out what the assets are that seems like a good idea um China Banning exports of raw materials the rare earth okay we talked about that one yesterday yeah it's apples St is that's what I think are the siake people in the US study older I don't know about that um but it's a good question I I just thought I didn't trust the data for and I could think of half a dozen reasons why what's that this guy reflects poorly on group please cancel why CU he's being anti-semitic was that somebody saying that we'd be better off if somebody nuked Israel is that what somebody said yeah yeah that's not acceptable behavior um but Mike BT's in a special category so Mike Bert's the uh official jester so pretty much everything that Mike Bert does is inappropriate and would get you canceled at everywhere else but he has special access because I like seeing the inappropriate stuff as long as you keep it in context if you're laughing at it because it's inappropriate that's fine as long as we you know keep it to its little domain so we've got we've got one official Jester who can get away with more than the rest of you so don't compare them to the the other people he he is specifically allowed to be deeply inappropriate like really inappropriate so but even he has limits Mike bur has some limits to we we don't go too far but he he tickles the edges of what's appropriate let's say that uh the all in podcast was Pro Trump uh at least attempt humor yeah uh the stock for beyond meat yeah I guess that didn't work so well all right what else are we complaining about I think we're all happy now all right uh free is it free speech tester kind of all right ladies and gentlemen I'm G to go do some other stuff it's great spending time with you I'm going to talk to the locals people privately if my system works but uh if you're on You.

Tube or rumble or X thanks for joining I'll see you tomorrow same time same place e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e

looks like Tesla's up a little bit

otherwise kind of

flat but uh that's not why you're

here no you're here because it's going

to be an amazing show let me pull up

your comments on

locals and then we're ready to

go is everybody having a good Friday the

13th so

far you're lucky feeling lucky

good morning everybody and welcome to

the highlight of human

civilization not counting those drones

but if you'd like to take this

experience up to levels that nobody can

even understand with their tiny shiny

human brains all you need is a cup or

marar glass tanker Chels is Stein a

can't jogur flas a vessel of any kind

fill it with your favorite liquid I like

coffee and join me now for the

unparallel pleasure of the dopamine end

of the day the thing that makes

everything better is cold that's right

simultaneous hip

go that was so

good it makes me think the price of

coffee should be higher oh wait the

first story is

is that the price of coffee is higher

than it has been in 47

years well you know Trump calls uh oil

Liquid

Gold I think it's coffee yeah I think

coffee is the liquid

gold uh let me let me put it this way if

you said to me Scott I cannot give you

any oil today I would say really but I

could have it tomorrow right yeah you

can have it tomorrow but today no oil

I'd say all all right all right whatever

but if you came to me and said Scott you

can't have any coffee

today I'd say I'm going to kill you but

I'd be kidding because I'm against

violence well you would not be surprised

to know that there's a big Advance out

of Korea South Korea obviously um in um

batteries they found out that they can

add water to a lithium metal battery and

increases increases the lifespan by

750. using only

water I I love the fact that nobody

thought of putting water on it it's like

the most abundant element in the

universe all right not the universe but

recently on the

planet so you don't need to know any

details about that I always tell you the

battery stuff in the context of if

Battery Technology becomes let's say

five times better everything changes and

then there must be like 20 or 30 things

that are going on every one of them

would make batteries five to 10 times

better so there is a real interesting

world coming of robots and self-driving

cars and everything else with batteries

that last forever meanwhile according to

study finds uh scientist are getting

close to having a pill that cures

diabetes so Mount Sinai team is working

on it so uh they they figured out the

mechanics of it so they're pretty sure

they can do it they just need to test it

on humans so it's going to take a

while but I wouldn't wait for that

meanwhile Tesla launched what they call

their actually smart summon feature in

China now I think what that means is you

can summon your car from anywhere and it

will just drive to you so that you can

get in

it imagine never having to park your car

again can you even wrap your head around

that imagine that wherever you're going

your own car drops you off in front of

the door and then you tell it to go park

itself and it just looks for a parking

place and then when you want it you just

summon it and it goes from its parking

place to wherever you're waiting

now that's pretty

amazing um but looks like China has the

function where they can call it to you

um I don't know if I don't know if a

Tesla uh full self-driving can go find a

parking spot I don't know that it can do

that

um and also at the same time musk says

that uh the Tesla full

self-driving uh drove a car from the LA

to San Diego with zero

interventions can you imagine going from

LA to San Diego without ever touching

the steering

wheel that's pretty amazing you know I

I've told you before that

my my uh retirement

assumption is that I would is that I

could just go sit in the car and tell it

to take me on vacation and I say

something like hey car I haven't spent

much time looking around in Arizona

let's go to Arizona and then the car

figures out you know uses its AI to

figure out what hotels all stay at along

the way and you know if it's time for me

to have

lunch it would be amazing I just do my

own work while I'm going somewhere all

right uh

meanwhile so uh the SpaceX

headquarters which had been in some

other name city is now officially named

star base so it's Starbase

city so we have a new new city in the

America called

Starbase all right now I would love to

know how star base was

designed

because didn't Elon Musk have a lot to

do with designing the whole city it

wasn't it a nothing until he decided it

was a

city so I'd love to know what technique

he used to design it to make it livable

CU I would imagine some of that is

transferable to other places we'll

see meanwhile the Vigilant Fox is

reporting over an ex that Neil Degrassi

Tyson he was uh he was on CNN he was uh

warning about the lack of trust and

experts so see how out of time this

sounds to

you imagine that this happened yesterday

I think so this is a yesterday opinion

and and ask me this does it feel like

this is a 10-year-old opinion like it

doesn't apply anymore but I'll read it

to you all right so this is Neil degrass

Tyson he goes

uh uh doing your own research uh could

have ultimately lethal consequences if

you're making decisions that affect your

health and

well-being does that sound like a 2024

or 2025

opinion it feels like sort of out of

time doesn't it

but he goes on this is a problem going

forward it's the loss of people's trust

and

experts um I I need to clarify that a

little bit I don't believe that the

problem is that the Public's loss of

trust and

experts it's not the trust that's the

problem it's the experts that would be

like saying you know in World War II the

real problem was people lost trust in H

no no no the problem wasn't they didn't

lose trust in him the problem was Hitler

he was the

problem and the problem with me is not

that I've lost trust in experts it's the

experts it's the experts so it doesn't

it doesn't even sound like this came

from our time it it feels so off

anyway um

by the way there's no right answer cuz

he's completely right that if you ignore

the experts you're probably going to die

if you ignore all of them but if you

follow the

experts you're probably going to die so

if you got two ways you're probably

going to die following the experts and

ignoring all the

experts somewhere in the middle where

you you call your shots and say well I

feel like it's safe enough to follow

these experts at least until I find out

I shouldn't have but maybe these other

experts I'll take a pass and wait this

one out so that's probably your only way

of surviving these days got to make your

own call which experts to

believe which is almost like doing your

own research so there's basically no way

to

win speaking of a loss of credibility uh

John no is writing in Breitbart that uh

Leslie stal and Van Jones were on

some I think a lot of you saw the clip

on social media it was some event where

number of news people were

yaking about what happened in the

election and uh according to uh Leslie

and Van

Jones um that Trump's crushing

reelection victory has driven much of

the corporate media into

despair uh no actually that's I think

that's John no's take on it that uh both

Les stal and fan Jones are having a bad

time with the the fact that the Legacy

Media has been

disgraced um and part of the thinking I

think on that clip was that it's the

change in technology that caused it so

in the 60s the technology allowed you to

do

um allowed you to have a television show

uh in the 20s it was easier to do a

podcast so the thinking is that the

technology made it possible for all

these people to compete with the

mainstream

media and that's what happened all the

extra

competition do you think that's the full

story no as NTI points out it's the

hoaxes it's the

hoaxes if the mainstream media had been

telling us the truth or even or even if

they'd been trying to tell us the truth

but God I'm wrong we'd still trust them

I wouldn't need a podcast nobody know no

one would need to check the internet for

news if the mainstream media were

credible I mean if I watched it and said

oh at least they're trying to get that

right you know they're not perfect but

they're at least trying to get this

right when I watch the news I don't get

the impression they're trying to get it

right I get the impression they're

trying

to you know pursue a narrative and a

propaganda and brainwash you I don't get

any sense of trying to get it right but

when I watch a podcast depending on

which podcast it is I often think oh

there's someone who's you know humble

about how much they know and how much

they don't know but is trying to get it

right we we'll use Joe Rogan as the

universal reference everybody knows Joe

Rogan very clearly you know I can't read

mins but the impression one gets very

clearly

wants to get it

right sometimes he gets things wrong

like everybody in the world but at least

when I watch him I think he's trying to

get it

right I don't get that at all on the

with the regular

media well and what is the outcome of

all this lack of credibility in the

media CNN according to the post

millennial CNN uh lost in ratings to the

Food Network recently

CNN lost to the Food Network now who

could have predicted that that would

happen now let me

see what do people like

better delicious food even if they're

just watching it or

even if they're just watching

it answer it's a tough one I think

people like delicious food even if

they're just watching it so yeah that's

not big surprise food is better than

uh meanwhile MSNBC had a guest on

who said that Mark Zuckerberg donated

$100 million to Trump's inaugural

fund um but it was $1 million now $1

million is a lot of money that's a lot

of

money but $100 million is a completely

different

story and the MSNBC host just let that

that go so if you were if you were

watching

MSNBC you think that Facebook donated

hundred

million to just one ceremony for one

day I don't think I don't think I've

been watching uh Zuckerberg for many

years he's not that dumb turns out he's

actually quite brilliant and a really

good leader a million dollars is a smart

investment in you know

friends 100 million would be just bad

crazy so I can't believe that the

guest didn't catch himself on that um so

I think Med this was on the X account

media lies they picked it up you should

follow them media

lies uh it used to be Comm Harris lies

but now it's more

generic so Biden did a bunch of Pardons

as you already know about he pardoned uh

39 people yesterday today including some

say Chinese

spies do you think it's

true that Biden pardoned Chinese spies

how many people think that's real it's

on the Internet it's on social media do

you think he really pardoned Chinese

spies it's a hard one because when

you're talking about pardons anything's

possible but no he did not pardon any

Chinese spies it is true that the United

States had before yesterday they had

negotiated a prisoner swap so I guess we

had some of their spies and they had

some of our spies and so that deal was

already done but that wasn't pardon it

is true that the Chinese spies will get

out of jail but part of a prisoner swap

which is

fine all

right uh let's see what else is

happening

let's check in on uh identity

Politics as I've told you Dei kills

everything it touches so Biden does all

these Pardons and uh the news today is

talking about how uh black women are

really mad because he didn't do enough

for black women so uh representative

Presley Democrat in

Massachusetts um thinks he should have

done more to reduce the racial

disparities and he had uh I guess he

made a campaign promise to reduce the

number of incarcerated Americans but he

didn't reduce it and

uh it seems to me this is yet another

example of how the Democrat Party

doesn't really have a chance of

recovering at the national level locally

they're still fine but at the national

level this is going to happen every time

they do

anything because I think the you know

every demographic group is going to say

hey what did your recent change do to

help my group well you know we're not

always about helping every single group

every time yes but wasn't that money you

could have spent on my group well yeah I

mean we do spend money on your group too

but right now we're spending some money

on this other

group but that could have gone to

me as soon as you have all this ident

there isn't any possibility of unity so

the Democrat Party should continue to

experience

disunity until they can't do anything

and I think the Comm Harris um debacle

if I can call it that if you count you

know Biden staying in too long dropping

out too late not really having time for

a

primary I think every bit of that was

just

Dei and if you think that was like you

know a weird year and something happened

that one time but you know you're not

going to see that again no I think it's

the

opposite I think that the Democrat Party

is completely

destroyed and there is no way to bring

it back at the national level because if

they get rid of identity politics

they're done if they keep identity

politics they can continue but not as a

competitive entity so if they want to be

non-competitive

they can do it or they can get rid of

identity politics and then what point do

they have they they built their whole

their whole deal is based on that

foundation so uh Benny Thompson is he

was one of the uh January 6 committee

people who called it an Insurrection

according to the post

millennial uh Benny said that he would

accept Biden's

pardon um he was the chair of the

January 6 committee actually he would

accept Biden pardon for his actions

there uh if it were

offered now I don't know if I'm

misinterpreting this but I thought I saw

Jonathan Turley say that there's no

obvious crime with the January six

committee they might have been Liars

they may have not done their due

diligence they may have been unethical

they might have been immoral they might

have been bad in a whole range of ways

which is what I saw they seemed like

very very bad people in terms of what

they were doing to the

country but I couldn't identify anything

that was specifically

illegal I'm no lawyer so I'm not the

source for that so but I think Jonathan

turle said it'd be hard to find anything

that was you know really a crime and so

I'm in favor of uh I think I'm in favor

of them getting

pardoned the reason I'd be in favor of a

pardon for the January 6 committee is

only if there's definitely no

crimes and because I don't want law fair

no

laware but the best the next best thing

to a criminal some kind of criminal

action against them if there is no crime

the next best thing is to give them a

pardon with Biden giving them a pardon

because when somebody gives you a pardon

everybody assumes you're guilty am I

right everybody assumes you're guilty so

I'll take yeah give me the

pardon so uh if you're not sure you can

find a crime with any of these january6

committee

people let's let's give them the worst

case scenario anyway a pardon and then

the entire world can say well why would

you need a pardon and that would be a

good question turns out the answer is

simple there there were no identifiable

crimes but you never were worried that

you know there be some lawfare so yeah

I'm weirdly in favor of pardoning them

if there's no obvious crimes it's a big

F it might be somebody who knows of

crime all right here's a test of your

fake news

spotting mayor Eric Adams met with Tom

homman and I guess they were on the same

page about the need to deport the

dangerous illegal

migrants and Eric Adams later talked

about it he did a little press

conference after he said quote we have

500,000 children who have sponsors in

this country that we can't

find now the implication is that half a

million children are being trafficked

basically but it's not what he said he

just said there are half a million that

you can't

find let me put that in

context and just for the dumb people in

case there are any NPCs here nothing I

say next is meant to condone trafficking

of

children I only need to say that for the

truly dumb people who may have slipped

in here the the rest of you already know

that but here's some

context um as citizens of the United

States you know who were born and raised

here there are now about 73 million

minors in the United States people under

18 73 million of

them at any given moment

how many of them are not being

supervised maybe 10 to 30

million so yes it's bad that there are

half a million children that we don't

know what's happening with them that's

bad it could be very bad it's also

true that we have 73 million who are not

watched that much do you know what you

kids doing on the phone do you know who

they're texting do you know what they're

doing after school for two hours before

you you see them

again children are largely unsupervised

all the time and the trouble that

they're getting in even if they have a

proper parent they're still largely

unsupervised so yes it's a it's a very

worrisome problem that half a million

children um are unaccounted for but if

you don't know what percentage of them

are absolutely fine

you don't really know how big the

problem is now you can say of course if

there's even one child who's a victim

that's too many and you'd be right but

if you want to understand the story in

context I would ask the following

question and I don't know the answer so

this is just the question you would

ask is the danger to the half

million comparable better or

worse than every citizen who's under

18 because they all have access to

infinite trouble they all have the

potential to be victims of just damn

near or

anything and I don't know I mean what

what if we found out again if there's

even one person being a victim it's too

many and we all agree on that but what

if that what if we looked into it and

the half a million missing it was just

bad

paperwork and that almost nobody is

being trafficked I don't know that

that's the case by the way but here's

the here's my general warning I always

tell you that when you hear a number

without a percentage it's

propaganda and when you hear a

percentage without the raw number it's

propaganda and when you hear any number

and of the larger context to which it

belongs yes

propaganda now it's good propaganda I

think it's good

propaganda because

he's trying to get the country to pay

more attention to the the risk to the

people under 18 and we all like that so

I'm glad he's doing it Eric

Adams uh is a uh he's a frustratingly

interesting character because he does a

lot of stuff I really like but other

stuff I may have a different opinion

about so yes we should find out exactly

what's going on with the half a million

and yes we should close the border so

that this never happens again but if you

automatically

think that of that half million more of

them are being traffic then maybe are

victimized who are just regular uh

citizens I don't know it might be true

but it's horrible no matter what the

number is we can agree on that there's a

story that I don't believe yet according

to the Daily wire and according to most

of the news everywhere uh there reports

that look credible that that the Biden

Administration is selling off the unused

border wall

materials and they're selling it for

scrap and they're doing it really

quickly and the implication is that

Biden doesn't want Trump to succeed

because it would be easier to just put

up the wall that you already own than it

would be to procure it and and then

start building it do you believe that

here's why I don't believe

it it's too on the nose

two on the

nose really do we really think that

Biden would try to sell the wall that

even Biden was trying to put

up right before the

changeover now I do believe that there

will be some dirty tricks relative to

the change over which would not be that

unusual but probably low-level dirty

tricks um there's something wrong with

this

story and here's what's wrong I would

need somebody who's involved with

selling it to explain what's going on so

I will just put out this you know

possible explanation it's possible that

there's a reason that some of the

wall components needed to be sold for

example maybe they were stored in a way

that deformed them so they were too hard

to put up maybe they rusted

maybe they're there's something else

maybe they have a source that they think

is just a better

wall so it's not that they're saving

money but they think they can procure a

better wall than the one that we had so

I feel like there's something else to

the story but do you get the same do you

get the same feeling when you read it

that it's just too perfect you know what

a perfect story Biden hates the wall

until he's president and then he builds

some and the moment that Trump is going

to be president again he sells off the

parts it's a little too perfect I don't

know I'm not buying it I'm not saying

it's false I'm not calling it fake I'm

saying that with the information I have

nope I'm not accepting that on on face

value um here's another little little

more of fake news so unusual Wales is

reporting that uh Trump's team is

looking into significantly reducing

merging or even eliminating top Bank

Regulators um says the Wall Street

General so they're talking about uh

doing things with the FDIC and the

department of government oh yeah the

FDIC so the

FDIC is what um ensures customers

accounts and most of us feel that that's

a

necessary very valuable thing but the

news is telling us that Trump's you know

Doge people might want to get rid of

those

departments Is that real news or fake

news let's see if you get this one right

real news or fake news the uh Team wants

to get rid of the department that does

the

FDIC and maybe some other stuff so

therefore banks will be relatively

unregulated do you think that that's

true no it's not true it's not even a

little bit true it's totally not true

here's what's

true they are definitely looking at

reducing the

bureaucracy they're definitely looking

at are there places where two or three

agencies should really be one they're

definitely looking at that here's what

they're not doing as far as we know

looking at not having f the I Insurance

on accounts there's no reporting that

says they're considering that because it

would probably be dumb but getting rid

of the many departments to administer it

and simplifying it but still making it

available might be exactly what you want

to do like how many people do you need

in that department probably it's bloated

so probably if you combined it with

something else and kept one management

you'd save some money so no if it is not

true that anybody on the Trump team is

considering getting rid of Federal

Deposit Insurance it is

true because it's common sense it's true

I I don't have to do any research to

know this is true they're looking at all

the places that they can combine

departments to reduce costs so I think

that's a real

story um so Trump rang the uh opening

bell was yeah opening bell to New York

Stock Exchange yesterday

and people were chanting USA USA and

even MSNBC said they'd never seen the

energy there like that and of course he

was ringing the bell because he's also

on the cover of Time

Magazine

and let me say this about

Trump we're seeing a different

Trump he's a different

guy and if that's surprises you you

maybe haven't been paying attention

because he's quite adaptable even even

at his current age

and here's my take a trump who has not

yet won whatever it is he's trying to

win let's say the president say can be

pretty

contentious he can be pretty

Scrappy he can go too far he can make

you cringe a little bit and go oh that

was a little too far even even if I like

him wouldn't have gone that far but

Trump who has already

won and is in his last contest

because he can't be president after this

that

Trump he is

great just just sort of watching him

simply being in his moment you know

ringing the bell and watching the people

react to him he has nothing to prove in

terms of getting the job so once he's

out a job application mode he is really

good at just being you know being the

thing

so I think I think he will be there's a

really good

chance that he would go down as our

greatest

president now it's going to be tough to

beat the Louisiana Purchase and stuff

but you know if you happen to be in the

right place at the right time you get

some lucky breaks although it was pretty

smart to buy the Louisiana Purchase so

depending on the events that are outside

of you know Trump's control

there's a lot that could happen could go

well could go poorly but he has a solid

chance of being the best president we've

ever had and maybe even a model for

other

countries anyway so how did MSNBC cover

uh Trump being on the time cover well

you won't be surprised to know that Joy

Reed uh compared him

to Hitler

you could give them any story and it's a

reason to compare them to other now it

is valid it is valid to point out the

Time Magazine has had uh Putin and

Hitler and Stalin caini and the point of

it is not who's awesome but rather who

is significant that year so it's about

who's significant not who's good or bad

and you know I get the point right you

know you I think I said the same thing

which is you know it doesn't it's not an

endorsement by Time Magazine it

definitely isn't um but the fact that

you would spend your whole show or a

segment of it just making this big

visual comparison to

dictators they are so worthless and

broken it's

funny and it was my best laugh of the

day as usual I'll tell you if you

haven't learned to watch MSNBC a little

bit you can't turn it down and watch it

for like an hour you'll your brain will

fry but when you're watching the Clips

if you're just look looking at them to

see what is you know what would happen

if you had a channel that was devoted to

only hiring people with severe mental

illness who didn't know it I guess uh it

would look like that so when I watch Joy

Reed or um Rachel mow I just see mental

health problems I'm not really seeing

opinions per se meanwhile James Carville

yeah I tell you that guy's becoming

really interesting just because he's so

unfiltered but Carville said uh he found

out that there are people on his team I

guess the Democrats says there people

who don't mind losing election if it

makes them feel better and Superior but

he points out if you if you aren't

winning you aren't

and then he watched the Food

Network CU people like food more than

they like even if they're just

watch looking at

it all right uh other people being weird

Adam

kiner uh talking about Donald Trump's uh

vow to get retribution so he was one of

those January 6 committee people

um and uh kin kininger

warns that uh if Trump tried to get

retribution he said quote if there is a

day the Democrats decide to do the same

thing to Republicans you won't have a

right to complain about

it to which I have to ask the following

question did we change the meaning of

the word

retribution because retribution means

that you're the one who did something

bad and somebody is paying you back for

that bad thing you did it doesn't

mean that he just decided to do

something bad to

you no it's it's called

retribution and retribution is even part

of the question because it is assumed

that the January 6 committee did

something that nobody should have done

to

anybody so now if you start the fight

you should not expect the other person

not to finish it if they can and if they

finish the fight and that causes you to

go back and get stronger and come back

and fight them again that's

okay it's not you know it's not a world

but no you don't get to take a free

punch so

Adam yes I understand that if he gets

retribution the Democrats will find a

way to do it to him but can you tell me

what Democrats could have done to Trump

that they didn't literally

try they tried to impeach him they tried

to put him in jail somebody tried to

kill

him twice at

least so are you telling me that you can

make that situation go away if Trump

decides not to get

retribution nobody's buying

that it the the Democrats pushed every

illegitimate button that they could

touch to try to get rid of trump if he

does an non-legitimate thing which is

find something they did illegally and

prosecute that's perfectly

acceptable in fact he should give it

back as hard as he

got minus the assassination part of

course but uh I'm not in favor of

lawfare or violence of course but yeah

he should he should use every tool he

has that's ethical and makes sense and

you know not not as going too far don't

want him to go too far um but my sense

is that Trump will

probably just not have the enthusiasm

for retribution I think it' just be too

much work for what you would get you

wouldn't really get anything from it so

I would be in favor of pardoning kining

or to to make him look

guilty

uh so Accord apparently according to CNN

Biden isn't inclined to issue issue any

pardons to people who uh used Firearms

or drugs or had drug charges

Tapper points out that uh that's after

Hunter Biden was pardoned for firearms

and drug charges now is that a good

gacha that uh Biden allegedly doesn't

want to give pardons to people with

firearms and drug charges but he just

gave a pardon to his own son for

firearms and drug

charges so is that did CNN get a good

gotcha there gotcha no no this is again

Thinking by

analogy this is not an analogy every

single person watching the story knows

that the only thing that mattered was

that Hunter Biden was his son and we all

get it we all get it you could hate it

you could not like it but we get it

Father pardoning the Son we get it CNN

this isn't a

gotcha but what's interesting

is that Jake Tapper on CNN he played it

as a gotcha like he played it as you

know a a

clear let's say inconsistency with Biden

that maybe should be noted no that

shouldn't be noted there's no story here

whatsoever man man helps his son you

don't need to ask any extra questions do

you do you need to look for any

inconsistencies if somebody helps a

family member no that's that's sort of

what the whole family member thing is

about of course he did let's talk about

the drones mayorcas uh and the FBI put

out a document saying they had no

evidence uh about the reported Dr Drone

sightings posing a national security or

Public Safety threat or having any

foreign

Nexus he said that none of the sightings

so far have been corroborated by

electronic detection which they're

making available to the

locals

so how do you interpret

that so Homeland Security and the

FBI they have no

evidence that the sightings are National

Security or public safety risk or have a

foreign Nexus what's

missing there's a lot missing isn't

there how about we checked with the

military and it's definitely not one of

ours and it's definitely not one of the

vendors who is trying to make a deal to

the military don't you feel like that's

sort of obviously

missing wouldn't that be the most

obvious thing you want to say it's one

thing to say it's not Homeland

Security and it's not the

FBI and that they don't know anything

about

it it's another thing to say we asked

all of the departments in our government

and they all said it's not us that's

what I want to hear I want to hear we

checked with everybody who could even

remotely possibly be involved with a

drone and they all assured

us that it's not them now even that

could be a lie but it's so

obviously omitting the most likely

people who would be involved in it which

is the military I didn't think it was

the FBI I didn't think it was Homeland

Security I think I thought it was the

military they vendors maybe not the

military per se

what do you make of the fact that none

of the sightings have been corroborated

by electronic detection what I make of

that is nothing because the drones many

of them were flying under radar so that

wouldn't catch them and by the time the

person with the fancy machines shows up

the sightings are probably over and some

of them are just airplanes and some of

them are private drones and stuff so it

does bring up the question if this drone

stuff is nothing but Mass delusion

and yesterday I would have said it's not

mass delusion but there's Mass delusion

on top of it meaning that at a minimum

95% of the videos and photos you see

online are fake and minimum

95% is the other 5%

real I don't know but I know there's no

detection of

it I know I haven't seen a picture that

looked real yet

so I have personally spent a lot of time

looking at videos and photos that are

allegedly in in New Jersey and other

places I haven't personally seen

anything that looked

real and what I mean by that is I look

at the video and I go okay an

orb how hard would it be to make a video

with a fake

orb it'd be real easy so I just I don't

know I I would say that I'm going to

move the the possibility of it being

literally nothing like there's no

drones the possibility that went from

yesterday I would have said

10% but I'm going to raise

that to

30% I think there's a good 30% chance

that there's not been a single

drone that that there's not been a

single

unexplained car siiz drone there's a

good 30% that's never happened but

people are wildly reporting that it did

that would be a mass hysteria and mass

hysteria are so common so

common that you just because it sounds

unlikely don't rule it out for that it

sounds unlikely but it's the most common

thing that happens in society massas we

do it all the time this could be one but

I still think there are enough of the um

inperson and sightings and stories that

make me think there's something up there

um even if 95% of them are Just Aircraft

and private drones and nothing to worry

about there seems like there's something

up

there the fact that the government is so

sure that they're not dangerous pretty

much I can I take as a confirmation that

the government is involved and they know

what they

are anyway the the news on it is

ridiculous and social media report

reports all look absurd to me so I'll

say it again I haven't personally and

I've looked at a lot of the videos I

haven't personally seen anything that

looks to me like oh that's that's a real

unexplained phenomenon not yet it's just

blurry

pictures um the NASDAQ where stocks go

to get listed for trading one of the

places um they got slapped down by a

court because they were trying to

require the companies that were listed

on their exchange to have Dei in their

corporate boards so

NASDAQ was trying to regulate the

companies that sign up to be on their

their listing by saying you've got to

have at least a woman on the board and

either somebody who is A different race

Andor

lgbtq

so so I wonder how many boards were

tempted

to just say all right guys we got a

woman that was easy but as far as I know

none of you are lgbtq is that correct

and everybody's like no we're not you

know darn it all right we're either

going to have to replace one of you with

an lgbtq so I can be listed on the

NASDAQ or one of you is going to have to

change your lifestyle can I get a

volunteer to be lgbtq just while we do

the paperwork

and then one will be like yeah I'll do

that sure what what do I have to do do I

have to have uh sex with somebody who's

my same sex no you just have to say you

are because it's really not about what

you've done physically it's about how

you identify so we've got to fill out

this paperwork so I need you to identify

as gay for could you do that for 10

minutes 10 minutes yeah I can give you

gay for 10 minutes yeah all right paper

work filled down all right obviously the

Dei stuff and the identity stuff is

ridiculous obviously Dei

destroys everything it touches this

would have destroyed the NASDAQ because

companies would have said I'll just list

somewhere else or it would have created

a

competitor imagine if the NASDAQ just

put itself on a business by becoming so

hard to work with that everybody said

well I think I'll go to the New York

Exchange or somebody else says I think

I'll do a startup of a new Exchange

that's even

possible but uh the court slapped him

down and said that they're not the

entity that can tell companies what to

do in that specific way so they don't

have that power so they lost

that um did you see that the inspector

general report came out on the FBI's

involvement in January 6 and of course

the news

predictably split into uh two movies on

one screen screen on one screen the fact

that there were 26 what do they call

them confidential human sources so

people who were not on the payroll of

the FBI but had already you know before

January 6 had been sources so they're

basically spies within right-wing groups

so 26 of those confidential human

sources but not FBI agents this is

important not FBI agents but

confidential human sources were in fact

in the crowd and so how was that

reported by the political

left the political left said see there's

another conspiracy theory by the right

that's been debunked there were no FBI

agents in the group so I guess we can

put that to rest can't we so that's one

movie the other movie looked at exactly

the same news and said well there it is

there's proof that the f was behind the

the trouble that was happened on January

6 which one of them is

Right which movie do you like do you

like the movie where it was proven that

the FBI had nothing to do with it or the

same

information proving that they were

totally

culpable it's the same

information the story is the same how

can you how how can we be reporting it

as opposites it's just what we do it's

crazy so let me tell you my take on

this my take is this why would you

believe in the IG

report they're make they're making you

think past the

sale think past the

sale so if you're thinking did those

26 confidential human sources do they

have anything to do with the bad

behavior or if you're thinking well

maybe the FBI lied and some agents were

involved how would we know then you're

thinking past the decision here's the

thing you shouldn't think past why would

you trust an IG

report if you don't trust the

FBI why would you trust the people who

gave the information to the you know the

FBI giving the information to somebody

else to talk for them right here here's

me as an FBI agent um I've got a a bunch

of things here that that I claim are

true good try FBI agent uh just because

you say it's true that doesn't mean I

think it's true right that's just you

who I don't believe saying this stuff is

true sorry sorry I'm going to have to

independently find out if that's true so

I'm going to hire an inspector

General the Inspector General goes and

talks to that agent and says I'm trying

to find out what's true and the FBI get

says this is true the same stuff I was

trying to show everybody else and the IG

says let me look at that all

right I'll put that in the

report where do you think the IG gets

their

information by asking the

FBI so there shouldn't be that much

difference between the

FBI telling you themselves and the FBI

telling the Inspector General

who tells you what the FBI told them do

you do you think the Inspector General

had their own confidential sources

inside the FBI and they're they're

working through their moles to find out

what was real and do you think that the

FBI if they had been involved in

something you know terribly illegal or

unethical on January 6 do you think they

would have written it down in their

documents so that when they did an email

search it like oh there it is it's right

in this email you just said you have 18

there and you told them to cause trouble

no if they were involved in something

that bad overthrowing the United State

States government they're not going to

write that in an email it's not going to

be in a

text so how in the

world would the IG know anything the IG

would know exactly what the FBI told

them and if they were involved in any

bad behavior I'm pretty sure the smart

play would be don't tell the Inspector

General now here are the things that are

not ruled out number one that the FBI

told the confidential human sources you

better cause some trouble there or else

you won't be our source anymore and

you'll go to jail I don't remember that

part and if they did tell the

confidential human sources that would

the confidential human sources sell out

their

protector probably not

um so now I I have no credibility in the

IG report no credibility in the

FBI um and we wouldn't know if there was

any

Freelancers so let's say you you really

nailed them down you say all right

FBI um you've admitted to the

confidential human sources but how many

agents did you have zero there were no

agents all right here's my next question

did you work with any external people

who used to be in this line of work but

now are

Freelancers so that it didn't look like

the FBI was behind

it

well I can't speak for everybody in the

FBI but I

didn't like how would you even

know if somebody associated with the FBI

or the CIA or some intelligence group

did some

freelancing for the benefit of some

Democrats how would you know there's no

way to know now and the inspector

general report is just worthless I

think however here's my larger point I

don't think it's

important because everything that we

know uh about January

6 just depends on whether the security

was there so if it's true that there

were some people associated with the FBI

in one way or another who are trying to

make things worse I don't thing matters

it doesn't make much difference to the

larger narrative the larger narrative is

that it was allowed to

happen meaning that Trump asked for more

security they were fully aware that

there was a problem coming and they

chose you know various people Democrat

leading chose not to respond in a way

that you and I think would be sufficient

now that's the whole story if there were

also people in the FBI trying to

intentionally cause trouble I don't know

that it matters because whether somebody

was intentionally doing it or it

happened

organically none of it would have

happened if there had been reasonable

security Andor a reasonable

election or an election that looked

reasonable the only thing we know is it

looked it looked rigged we don't know

that that that it

was so I don't know I wouldn't obsess

about that I would concentrate the

security part and I want to ask you a

question have I ever gone too far in

talking about the FBI involvement in the

January 6 crowds because my memory of it

is that I've largely avoided that topic

because I didn't think it was terribly

important and I didn't think we'd ever

know for

sure uh does anybody have any memory of

me saying something that's now debunked

because I want I want to fact check

myself if if I ever went too far and

said oh clearly that was full of FBI

agents well then I have to debunk myself

but I don't think I did I think I held

back so and the reason I say this it's

important for you to check my work

because a lot of what I do is make

predictions all right well Hamas is

acting like they might be willing to

temporarily allow Israel's military to

be in Gaza in return for some of the

hostages but not all of them and the

thinking is that Hamas might have been

waiting for somebody to come to their

rescue but once asbah and Syria fell and

Iran was crippled uh they knew nobody

would come so now they might be getting

more flexible and there's some question

about whether they you know try to do it

before Biden's out of office Etc

here is my

take let me teach you something about

negotiation this is not

one Trump is going to teach them what a

negotiation is and here's what I think

he's going to do he's going to say

releasing releasing the hostages is not

a

negotiation you're going to do that or

we will destroy you with no mercy and as

well as will kill all the all the

hostages they they'll all be dead but

you'll definitely be dead and you will

lose everything

forever so the way you negotiate is you

say these things are

negotiable but there are some things

that are

not hostages are never

negotiable because the minute you

negotiate for hostages you're going to

get more

hostages negotiating for hostages

increases the number of hostages not

right away but once they learn the

business model Works more hostages you

absolutely have to kill the hostages if

you want it to stop meaning you have to

say to Hamas here's the deal if you want

anything you got to start with giving us

all the hostages and then we can talk

but without the hostages every one of

you is dead Gaza will never be for the

Palestinians there'll never be a

Palestinian State it'll never be a

conversation

and you will never be free in any sense

we'll take everything from you

everything so if you treat the if you

treat the um the hostages as a

negotiation you just make everything

worse I don't I think Trump's the only

one who might even understand that and

and the way he's talking he did exactly

what I said remember he said if those

hostages are still there when I get

sworn in they will be held to pay he

means that that's not a bluff here's

what I would not expect that he gets in

office and just starts acting like it's

a regular negotiation and the hostages

are part of it no

way the hostages cannot be part of a

negotiation that's your opening bid to

be allowed to

negotiate if Hamas wants to negotiate

that's the ticket you pay that first

that cannot be part of the negotiation

anyway um I guess Trump was asked if he

trust if he trusted Israeli Prime

Minister Netanyahu and he had the best

Trump answer quote I don't trust

anybody thank

you you know every once in a while he

says something that's so obvious and so

common sensical you wonder why you've

never heard it before from somebody in

his position

because typically you wouldn't want a

president to say I don't trust anybody

but if you live in the real world you've

watched the people that you trusted that

were on your inner circle selling books

Your Inner Circle and you know people

that you trusted and then they're go

they go out there and they're talking

crap about you on the news no he

shouldn't trust anybody he should not

trust anybody well I'm going to take

that back he should trust his

family I think he can trust his family

but beyond that trusting other people's

pretty sketchy so yeah I think he means

this as a little bit hyperbole you know

not really 100% but I like the fact that

he said it out loud it was a good

answer anyway so there's talk about

Israel and maybe the US taking out

Iran's nuclear program so I guess their

nuclear program is allegedly you know

within months of being able to create a

nuclear weapon because they've already

reached they've refined enough materials

that they they could make 12 bombs or

something like that now here's my

question do you think we'd know that if

they did make a weapon if somebody is

within months of being able to make a

weapon don't you think they already made

one or or is building the actual weapon

what Iran would know if anybody found

out that it would require immediately

taking out their leadership

just because they made the

weapon it could be that Iran knows that

if if they made one and and they have to

worry about spies because Israel must

have great spies in Iran by now uh if

anybody found out they actually made one

then I think it's just a green light for

complete destruction of the regime would

you

agree but they'd have to they' have to

get it when that first one was like just

brand new before it could be operational

and launched you know cuz first you'd

build it on the ground before you put it

on a missile or something so if they get

it before it's on a missile and they

know for sure where it is and that it

got built they would do a lot more than

destroy the weapon they would have to

take out the regime and nobody would

even

blink because they'd say all right yeah

nuclear weapon you had to do that you

know people would still criticize Israel

but they would completely understand you

would completely understand so it could

be that there's something keeping ran

from taking that last

step but what I worry about is when the

News tells you that it's only a month

away that really means they already made

it you just don't know it yet right

that's what it feels like I I worry that

they already have one and they just

they're good at

hiding anyway apparently Trump's team is

considering helping Israel if they were

to go after the nuclear program uh I

guess we have better bunker Buster bombs

that we could make

available

um and now that the Syrian airspace is

cleared um Israel can fly over Syria

without worrying about getting shot

down and uh they can fly over Iran

because they've already taken out Iran's

U anti-aircraft

but somebody said but you still have to

go over a part of

Iraq um does Israel feel that Iraq has

no anti-aircraft that would be a risk I

feel like there's a lot of bad stuff in

Iraq I don't know enough about Iraq to

know if it's really dangerous or

not anyway um we'll keep an eye on

that the uh the Trump team thinks that

maybe just economic pressure might be

enough I don't

know I don't know I don't think anybody

wants Iran to become a failed

state so as bad as the regime is they

don't know what would replace it and

what kind of chaos that would cause so

we'll see I I think that Trump will try

a grand peace deal something that would

bring Iran into the let's say the the

world where everybody can be

happy it won't be something they'll love

but maybe you know I I think Trump could

meet with the

Ayatollah what do you think do you think

that could ever happen could you imagine

uh Trump actually meeting with the

Ayatollah to

negotiate I think it's

possible I wouldn't bet on it but it's

possible he's the only person I can

imagine doing it but who knows who knows

all right that's all I got for you today

um I'm not sure if there's still time to

order the dilber calendar for your gift

giving let's say today a it's a close

you know I I think there's a good chance

if you ordered it today You' get it

before Christmas day but we're getting

to those last minutes if it did come it

wouldn't wouldn't be long after

Christmas so you'd still be good

um all

right did I forget any big

news

yeah yeah as long as you get it before

January 1st you won't be too

unhappy current report is 25 agents now

the current report is

25

informants we don't know if they were

acting as agents or they were

agents um oh hello according to

Politico fedman is looking at a 2028

run oh man he'd be trouble honestly he'd

be

trouble um remember I said that the

Democrats can't possibly recover unless

they have an unusually

charismatic uh

candidate I don't think he can make it

because he's

white so they'd have to be desperate to

you nominate a white man um it'll be fun

to

watch hey Joshua I see your your post on

me you must be watching watching right

now

um the Duke lacrosse lady finally

admitted she was lying that's that's

like a really old story where there's a

woman who accused Duke lacrosse players

of horrible Behavior

here Federman a piece of trash you say

too weak to be

president he's just good at

politics all

right ladies and

gentlemen um that's my Friday show for

today

um I think I hit all the big

topics but I'm also feeling like I

missed

something uh a lot of people talking

about

that I don't even want to talk about

it

um all right boy the grock does good

pictures of me now

[Music]

um yeah the man cave it doesn't have a

set time but usually the man cave is

somewhere in the 4:30 to 5:30 range to

start

uh Biden pardoned a pedo judge well so I

decided to not talk about the people who

got pardoned

the specific crimes because the entire

point of the presidential pardons is

that you and I think they should still

be in

jail now they have their reasons and

they don't have to give

them what I worry about is it pardons

are money laundering bribery situations

where somebody goes to a politician and

says you know my brother-in-law's cousin

has been in jail for

drugs I'd be making a really large

contribution to your

campaign if he got pardoned so I suspect

that the mysterious pardons are all

personal favores and or have a financial

element to

them imagine if somebody went to Hunter

and said

Hunter um I'll invest $100 million in

your investment fund he doesn't have one

but if he did um if my if my cousin's

brother gets

pardoned how would we ever

know why that guy got pardoned we'd

never know and there wouldn't be

anything written down it' just be a

verbal promise so I suspect that the

pardons are a completely corrupt

process

but um I called you anti-semantic yeah

okay I don't care um

anyway you get the

point uh sounds like avoiding the Dr the

Pirates off of Africa

now uh was a question not a guess all

right I don't know what you're talking

about

um let's see would Iran want to test

their nuke before announcing the have

one you can't really test one without

people finding

out oh Janet Yellen said she was sorry

over the presiding over a $15 trillion

debt sorry

oops oh yeah Americans are sicker for

longer you know the reason I didn't do

that story is I don't trust the data um

I saw in the comments somebody said so

there's a story that uh that Americans

stay sicker longer than other

countries but I feel like there's

context

missing number one if you're in some

poor country maybe you complain

less or or maybe you die from the thing

whereas the American stays you know

treated

longer uh I just don't trust the data on

that

one um

let's see look for people who are not

charged on January 16 and you can figure

out what the assets are that

seems like a good

idea

um China Banning exports

of raw materials the rare earth okay we

talked about that one

yesterday yeah it's apples St is that's

what I

think are the siake people in the US

study older I don't know about that um

but it's a good question I I just

thought I didn't trust the data for and

I could think of half a dozen reasons

why what's

that this guy reflects poorly on group

please

cancel why CU he's being

anti-semitic was that somebody saying

that we'd be better off if somebody

nuked Israel is that what somebody

said yeah yeah that's not acceptable

behavior um but Mike BT's in a special

category so Mike Bert's the uh official

jester

so pretty much everything that Mike Bert

does is inappropriate and would get you

canceled at everywhere

else but he has special access because I

like seeing the inappropriate stuff as

long as you keep it in context if you're

laughing at it because it's

inappropriate that's fine as long as we

you know keep it to its little domain so

we've got we've got one official

Jester who can get away with more than

the rest of you so don't compare them to

the the other people he he is

specifically allowed to be deeply

inappropriate like really inappropriate

so but even he has limits Mike bur has

some limits to we we don't go too far

but he he tickles the edges of what's

appropriate let's say

that uh the all in podcast was Pro Trump

uh at least attempt humor

yeah uh the stock for beyond meat yeah I

guess that didn't work so

well all right what else are we

complaining about I think we're all

happy now

all

right

uh free is it free speech tester kind

of all right ladies and gentlemen I'm G

to go do some other stuff it's great
