Come on in. It's time for your favorite thing. Yeah, it is. There are some empty chairs up front. Grab a seat. Make sure you've got a delicious beverage. And get a cat in your lap if you have the option. It's always better with a cat on your lap.

Good morning everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. You never had a better time. But if you'd like to take a chance on elevating your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with our tiny shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup, mug, or a glass, or a thermos, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. And it happens now. Go.

All right, people. Well, apparently Tommy Robinson has a gazillion people protesting in central London, I think it is. And it turns out a lot of those people are carrying American flags and chanting about Charlie Kirk in London. Do you believe that the Brits maybe got a little bit more energy for protesting because of Charlie Kirk's tragic situation? I'll bet yes. I'll bet yes. And you might see a global effect to the assassination. This might be the first indication that we cannot calculate how big this is.

Now, I don't want to get ahead of myself because it's not that big yet, but the potential size of this is hard to estimate. But if you look at the crowds, look at the crowd pictures. That's a lot of people, and they all have flags, some of them American.

Well, after this show, as is our tradition for Saturday, Owen Gregorian will be hosting a spaces event. That's the audio-only event on X. So go to X after the show and just search for Owen Gregorian and you'll find the link.

I wonder if there's any science that didn't have to happen because they could have just asked me. Oh, here's some. According to The Conversation, that's a publication, cats give you oxytocin. So that's a brain chemistry that makes you feel good, makes you feel loved. So it's true. We don't get it just from being close to other humans. We also get oxytocin from animals. And I think they had already tested dogs and that gave you oxytocin, but cats do too.

I will tell you that that was the primary reason I got my two cats. I got them for oxytocin. Like literally, I said to myself, I'm at a certain age and a certain health situation where the odds of me even touching other people are going way down. I'm lucky if I can get a handshake once a week. It's just natural when you're not in a place where you could get into a relationship and you're not in one. There's really a shortage of oxytocin and I think that can make you crazy. I believe that if you have no oxytocin, that might be some of the problem with these shooters as well. If they don't have access to touch, they don't get calmed down and they don't find any sense of peace just being in their own body and in their own life, and they're looking for something big to give them a dopamine or some kind of thrill. So get yourself a cat and your oxytocin. Well, I don't know about dopamine, but oxytocin will be way better.

Hey, I wonder if I can find a cat. All right, I think I'll do the rest of the show with a cat on my cheek. Oxytocin. I'm getting all your oxytocin. Stealing it. I'm taking it. Yeah, give it up, Gary. All right. I'll need another hit later, so come on back later.

They didn't really need to study that. They could have just asked me, "Scott, do you think your cat will give you oxytocin?" And I would have said, "Hell yeah, you don't have to study that."

Scientists claim they reversed aging in monkeys. They found a way to reverse aging. And I'm going to tell you exactly how. But it was a certain kind of monkey called a macaque. So I was interested in making macaque younger. So if you want to talk about macaque, this would be the place to do it. They're monkeys. Damn it. You're disgusting. Oh man, you can make anything sound dirty. They're monkeys, people. They're monkeys. Clean up your mind.

You're probably wondering, how in the world do they reverse aging? But I'm going to explain it to you. Now, pay attention. I have a gift for summarizing and simplifying. So I'm going to take this complicated thing and try to give it to you in the simplest terms. And if you don't understand this, well, I'm pretty sure the problem's on your end because I'm going to explain this so clearly.

Mechanistically, the SRC-derived exosomes reduce the cellular senescence markers, and I'm talking about the p21, p16, and the gamma-H2AX, obviously inflammation from your IL-6, your TNF-alpha, your IL-1 beta, and your oxidative stress. All right, you following me? While enhancing heterochromatin stability and immune function. So this suppresses the SASP inflammatory pathways and promotes systemic rejuvenation. Everybody got that? See, it was kind of easy. You just have to relax and listen and it all makes sense.

You already know that Apple introduced a new feature in their earbuds, their little earpieces, that will translate. But I didn't realize how good it is. Apparently it's live translation without a delay. I mean, there's got to be some delay, but it's almost no delay. But also it's so good that both people can be talking over each other and it will still translate the other person. That is impressive because in the real world people talk over each other and there's lots of other noise. Still works.

So imagine if you will this becomes more of a normal thing. Can you imagine traveling to places that you would have never traveled before but being able to understand everybody? The problem is if you meet some villager in a remote place they're not going to have the translator. So you would understand them, but they would have no idea what you're saying. Maybe you could use another app for that.

But as I've said before, I have a hypothesis that the reason that the US, Russia, and China are sort of these friend-enemy rivals, you know, maybe more rivals than friendly, I feel like it might be because of language. I'm not positive. I wouldn't bet my life on it. But doesn't it seem to you that whenever we're dealing with a country that speaks perfect English, even if it's not normally an English-speaking country, that whenever the leader is gifted in English, we get along with them? Is that true? I mean, it feels like that's mostly true, right?

So I just have this feeling that if the leaders can talk in the same language comfortably that everything works out differently. It just feels like that's true. You wouldn't imagine that because you think it's no, no it's not the way they talk. Scott, you know they have translators. It's really these big issues. You know the issues are the reason that we don't get along. To which I say I challenge that assumption. I don't think that's how brains are organized. I think people when they can talk to people comfortably they just say well I'm not going to nuke my friend Don. I don't want to nuke my friend. But if the only contact you have is through an interpreter, I feel like that's like a little wall that allows you to say all right I'm over here. My enemy is over there on the other side of that invisible wall. Language is pretty important. This might change everything.

Ars Technica is reporting, Benj Edwards, that there was an education report that was being put together by the Canadian government. So they authorized it. It took them 18 months to put together a report on the ethical uses of AI. It's important that the report was about the ethical uses of AI. And now the humorous irony. Apparently the report included a number of fake sources because the AI lied to them and they believed it and they wrote down all the fake sources. And it took them 18 months to create a report with fake sources that AI probably wrote. They probably had AI write a report about the dangers of AI if you use it unethically, I guess. All right, good job, guys.

I saw a post by an X user, Justine Moore, who I believe is a high-end investor, and she said, "The best X accounts are run by people who are at some level unemployable. You have to be posting takes that disqualify you from a decent chunk of jobs in your industry in order to have a good X account." Well, I would agree with that. If I could just speak personally, I'm really sure that if I had a regular day job with a regular boss that I wouldn't say 75% of the things I say online. There's no way I would say the things honestly that I say now. And still, even though I didn't have a boss per se, I got cancelled worldwide for one of my opinions or at least the way I stated it. It wasn't even because of the opinion. Nobody disagreed with my opinion, but I got cancelled anyway.

President Trump has indicated that he's looking into going after George Soros, figuring out how his money is flowing through and possibly getting to violent protests and other bad distortions in our country. And he thinks that there might be a RICO case because Soros would be part of a larger organized group of people doing things that potentially could be illegal. I don't know exactly what would be in that category of illegal, but Trump does. And he does include the younger Soros. So he's not just saying George, he's saying Alexander as well. And my question is, and I'm sure Mike Cernovich would be asking the same question, why only one billionaire? It seems obvious to me that there are about something like half a dozen billionaires who are running the show because money drives everything. Why would you only look into one of them? It feels like whatever they're doing, they're all doing it. It seems like they're playing the same game. So I would say you want to maybe expand that a little bit. Find out where the money's coming from. Because it all looks dirty and unethical to me.

We'll talk about the Charlie Kirk situation, of course. So apparently Republicans, some Republicans, dozens of them, are trying to get congressional leaders to investigate what they call a sustained breakdown of law and order by anti-American ideology across the country. Just News is reporting on this. So Chip Roy is organizing this, I think. And so they've signed an open letter calling for the House leaders to form some committee to look into it because of the numerous attacks. But they also say, this is related to the story about RICO and Soros, but they also say they want to follow the money and uncover the force behind the NGOs, donors, media, public officials, and all entities driving what they call a coordinated attack.

Now the real question will be the degree of coordination because who is the George Carlin? George Carlin used to explain that you don't need to have a meeting with notes and everybody says out loud, "Oh I agree with you." If everybody knows what to do. So the Democrat world is one of these, everybody knows what to do. You don't have to have a meeting. Do you think the hosts of MSNBC have to be instructed to call Trump a fascist? No. They just look at what other people do and they say, "All right, that's what we're doing. I guess we're just maybe we'll be worse than the others or better, but basically we're all doing what the others are doing." So you only need to sort of create the narrative and then everybody else just snaps to grid and automatically conforms. You don't really need to coordinate.

I feel another source of oxytocin coming. Hey, look who it is. It's Roman the cat coming to join his brother.

All right, we will move on. So the alleged shooter of Charlie Kirk, his name is Tyler Robinson. He's 22. But when he was in high school, he had a 4.0 average and he even had a scholarship to college, but I guess he didn't last long in college. So he's living at home. And probably you're wondering, how could somebody with a 4.0 average be so stupid and so hypnotized to do what he did. And I can tell you one thing that's really useful to go through life with. Intelligence does not protect you from influence. It just doesn't. You're sure that it should, right? You're positive that it should. Yeah. He dropped out of college. You're sure that the smarter you are, the more invulnerable you'll be to influence, but just look around. There are people who are literally geniuses who are on completely opposite sides of things. How is that possible? If intelligence got you to the right answer more often, wouldn't all the intelligent people be on the same side? But they're not.

Even if you looked at the geniuses that were part of the PayPal original team, you know, the Elon Musk, the David Sacks, Reid Hoffman, you've got Reid Hoffman on the far left and funding things, and you've got Elon and Sacks on the right. They're all geniuses, but they're not immune from being influenced by something in the environment. There's just no protection whatsoever. That's my official word as a trained hypnotist because hypnotists learn that the smarter you are, the easier it is to hypnotize you. Let me say that again. Hypnotists learn in school. We're actually taught that the smarter and more confident the subject is, the easier it is to hypnotize them. I don't know why. I wouldn't even speculate, but it's a known phenomenon. It's well enough known that it's actually taught in school.

As far as we know, but I think it's still a little fog of war, the perpetrator, the shooter, was a far-left kind of guy. You might be seeing online some rumors that I think are unsubstantiated that he was actually further right than Charlie Kirk. I believe that's all unsubstantiated stuff, but there's enough to it that I would say you better wait and find out more about this guy because it's not impossible. Just almost anything that you're sure you know about this story might be wrong. We're at that point in the story where really there could be really basic fundamental things that we find out are just not true. So as far as we can tell, he was a far-left guy, but maybe not. We'll see.

One of his friends from high school says he's definitely far left. And to me, that's pretty convincing. I feel like if his good high school friend said, "Oh yeah, he's way left," that's probably dependable. That seems like a reasonably strong statement. It's unlikely that he went from high school far left to a few years later far right. That doesn't seem likely.

So as you know, we're in sort of a contest to blame whatever you think is the other side. So of course conservatives are blaming the left for all the dangerous talk that looks like it may have encouraged people to get violent. And of course the left is arguing that Trump's rhetoric is the root cause. Unbelievable. Yeah. You know we always joke about the Democrats projecting. Like if they murder you, they will accuse you of murder as they're stabbing you, right? How many times have we seen that example? As they're stabbing you. "Stop murdering me. Stop it. You're murdering me. Stop it." And you know, I'm just in a different movie, so all I see is them murdering us. But they're apparently, I don't know if they believe their own movie. What do you think? Do you think the hosts of MSNBC believe that Trump is really the root cause here and that they're not? And that they believe they're not? Do you believe they believe that?

It's possible because of cognitive dissonance. So cognitive dissonance won't allow you to form an opinion of yourself that's too negative if you have a healthy ego, if you're not mentally ill. So if you're perfectly normal, your brain is working the way it should, it will malfunction when you're presented with a situation where you have obviously done something stupid or evil and you don't think you're stupid and you don't think you're evil. That's what triggers cognitive dissonance. When there's a disconnect between what you're doing or experiencing and what you believe to be true. And then your brain spontaneously comes up with a story that usually sounds ridiculous to observers.

So here's the test. Are the MSNBC hosts experiencing the situation in which there's strong indication that they are the bad guys? Have they created a situation where it's becoming somewhat obvious that they're the bad guys and that they might be stupid and they might be evil? Would you agree that that's sort of becoming obvious now? What would smart people with normal brains, you don't need any mental illness, just a normal brain, what would they do in that situation? Well, they would hallucinate that the real problem is something else so that they're off the hook. And so they snapped to grid on Trump. It's like why do you have a bunion on your toe? Trump. Trump. Why does it look like it's going to rain today? Trump. So you've got this little Trump reflex that they've developed because everything's Trump's fault.

But the tell, the way you can tell it's cognitive dissonance as opposed to just a different opinion, is that the people who are not experiencing the cognitive dissonance look at it and they say, "Are you drunk? I mean are you on mushrooms or something? Because your opinion is so disconnected from any kind of reality that surely you can tell that you're completely on the wrong page." But they act like they can't. And that's cognitive dissonance. They're probably not acting. They're probably actually having an experience in which their brain has calculated somehow that they're innocent.

So here's the test. When they say that the reason that that guy killed Charlie Kirk is because of Trump's rhetoric, does that sound, well, maybe that could be true? Is that how you think of it? And even if his rhetoric is what caused people to get worked up, what rhetoric is that? Is it where he said, "I'm going to protect you people in the United States by sealing the border"? Is that the part? How about the part where he said, "I'm going to reduce crime for all you poor people, especially poor Black people living in DC and now Memphis"? Is that the part? You know, what was the dangerous rhetoric?

So anyway, yeah, cognitive dissonance. And then of course we're all trying to keep score and the people on the right are positive that the political violence is almost but not completely limited to the left, right? How many of you believe that to be true? That the political violence is largely, not 100%, but largely on the left. Well, I'm not even sure yet because these stories are all a little, you know, the various stories all have a little wrinkle to them.

For example, the guy who tried to kill Governor Shapiro in Pennsylvania, he tried to burn his house down and probably wanted to kill his family. That was somebody who was mad about him being pro-Israel or anti-Israel, being maybe too pro-Israel. But it was something about Israel. So it wasn't even about left or right, you know, because the left and the right are kind of mixed on Israel. It wasn't even that. So how do you score that one? Is that the left or the right when it really was a specific issue?

What about the guy who dressed as a police officer and killed or shot two different families, right, that were both in politics? But that was over, I think that was over a specific issue, wasn't it? Was it over abortion or something? But I'm not sure. Do you count the ones where somebody is mad at a specific issue like Israel or like Ukraine or like abortion? Is that the same as saying it's a leftist or is that just somebody who's got this real issue with this one issue? I don't know. But it feels like the violence is coming from the left. I don't know if the people on the right feel like it's coming from the right. They might. They have different news, so maybe they think that. I don't know.

But we don't really have, if anybody's done it yet, I'd like to see it, but a really good accounting of how much of this is from the left versus the right. It seems to me, and let me ask you this question. I asked my Locals subscribers earlier, but I'm going to put it out to the rest of you. Who is the first person in sort of the political talking head world, who's the first person you ever heard say if the Democrats keep talking about Hitler and fascists that it's going to turn violent? Who's the first person who told you that's going to happen? Might have been me. It might have been me. And that would be informed by my background in hypnosis. If the words start to converge in a certain way, the words cause action. You know, words are thoughts and thoughts become action.

And then Greg Gutfeld was saying it on The Five and on his show. Gutfeld has the bigger platform. So he's the one who made it a common thought. But now it's the only thing we're arguing about. It's the number one issue in the country is that that rhetoric is causing violence.

Now, you remember when I told you that when Trump back in 2015, I predicted that Trump would change more than politics, that he would change our very view of reality. This is one of those times. Once you understand that words are the basis of your brain, you know we think in words, that if you change the words you change the thinking, that's why people are always arguing use my definition of the word. I say it's a genocide. If they can get you to accept their word then it changes your thinking. So words change thinking. The way you think of it is that you think and then you come up with the words to describe what you think. Not the case. We're a lot like AI and large language models. The words come first. If your brain has a certain set of words in it that it accesses more easily or first, that's where your thinking is going to end up. It'll end up where your words are. So that's a hypnotist take. So yes, this rhetoric is absolutely lethal.

MSNBC is going all in on this, Trump's fault. And then you've got Jasmine Crockett, Democrat Jasmine Crockett. She falsely claimed, I guess she was on The Breakfast Club maybe yesterday, and she says that both attempted Trump assassins were registered Republicans and had not voted Democrat. Now that is completely made up. That's not true. How in the world did she imagine that the attempted assassins were Republicans? So I believe she got fact-checked on that. I think Charlamagne may have fact-checked her on that. Then she doubled down on calling Trump a quote wannabe Hitler. She said it again. She said it yesterday while Charlie Kirk is in a box. He's not even in the ground yet. And she decided that that was all right. I'll say that again. And she argues that calling Trump a Nazi Hitler kind of guy is no worse than when Trump said I could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it.

Everybody who heard him say that knew that he was making a hyperbole, a statement. Not a single person said, "Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't we shoot people on Fifth Avenue because our leader thinks he can do it, so why don't we do it? Let's go shoot some people on Fifth Avenue." No. Not a single person in the whole world thought that that was a call to violence. And listening to Jasmine Crockett, the stupidest person in the Democrat party, I do think she might be the dumbest person in the entire party. But at least Charlamagne tha God, who is the host of The Breakfast Club, he admitted on the show where Jasmine was that he has engaged in rhetoric that could be determined as inciting violence against Trump. He said, "I think we all incite whether we think we do or not." And what I mean by that is I've definitely called that regime fascist. And he said if you hear somebody call him Hitler, if there's somebody that thinks, "Oh, Hitler." And then they look at a lot of actions that are going on, they're like, "Well, let's prevent this before a million people get killed." So I can understand how it all incites violence.

Good for you. I have to say I have continuous mixed feelings about Charlamagne tha God. I certainly agree with some of his takes and I appreciate that he's taking the both obvious and the honest take that there is something about our language that probably causes some action we don't want and that a lot of people are involved and he's admitting that he is too. So I don't know if he'll stop doing it. He came close to almost sort of forgiving that kind of stuff because everybody does it. He didn't say that, but it sort of bumped into that thought.

I've also noticed that the people who are most angry about Charlie Kirk have a belief that he was a completely different person. Completely different person. I've heard somebody raging about how he was racist against Blacks. Now, I don't know every single thing that Charlie Kirk ever said, but I would still be willing to bet a large amount of money that he's never, not even once, said something that anybody could construe as racist against Blacks. I'll bet nothing. I'll bet not once. How about even I'll bet he never even brushed against it. It's completely opposite his Christian identity. And he would be way too smart to do it accidentally. He was way too good. So now, where in the world does that even come from? Where does that come from? I mean, do people just make up and other people say, "Well, I've never heard him talk, but my friend Bob says he's this terrible person." So this is again the two movies on one screen that I always talk about. How in the world would they have that opinion about him? I'm completely baffled.

Chris Cuomo was criticizing Elon Musk and he said, quote, "I know there's power in playing the victim, but Elon Musk is the one saying that the left is the party of murder." So that's what Elon said the other day. The left is the party of murder. And he acts like that is pushing extremism. To which I say, is he really saying that Elon Musk should stop complaining about the left trying to kill him? Do you know how much security that guy needs? Can you imagine the number of death threats that Elon Musk has gotten? All from the left. So when he says that the left is the party of murder, yeah, there's some hyperbole in that obviously, but to imagine that Elon Musk is the problem. He's literally the victim of all kinds of death threats and entirely from the left, I would guess. If it's not 100%, it's probably 99%. So I think Chris Cuomo missed the mark on that complaint because the problem is not the person complaining about getting murdered. That's not the problem.

Oh my god. Yeah, Charlie Kirk got murdered, but the real problem is the people complaining about it. What? What? The real problem is the complaining about the murder. I think the real problem is the murder. It's reminding me of a Norm Macdonald joke. You've probably all heard it by now when he talks about Bill Cosby. He goes, "You know, some people say the worst part about the Bill Cosby situation is the hypocrisy." And then he pauses for effect and goes, "I don't think it's the hypocrisy. I think the worst problem is the rape." And it feels like that. It's like, no, the worst problem is not the complaining. It's not the complaining. It's the murder. It's the murder.

Then here's another example. The account Media Lies spotted this. So the Tennessee House Representative Justin Pearson, he was on MSNBC just recently, and here are some of the things he said after Charlie Kirk's murder. So wouldn't you think people would tone it down after he gets murdered? Well, some of the things he said was Trump's an authoritarian dictator. The cities that he's sending the National Guard into will be quote occupied by the military. Yeah, he's a white supremacist. He called federal assistance for law enforcement terrorism. We have to fight back against it. These are not benign acts and Black people are being used as pawns.

Now, does that sound like somebody who's trying to get a solution to any problems? No. That is not somebody who's trying to solve a problem. I don't know what that is, but it's not a problem solver. And when asked about what the problem is, Representative Pearson said that instead of more policing, what they need is things to battle poverty, resources basically to battle poverty. Because if you battled poverty and you improved the schools, you would have less violence. Well, he's a stupid idiot because if you don't solve crime, you don't get any of that other stuff there. There's no such thing as far as I know. I've never heard of any high crime area that solved their crime by helping the poor. Have you? I've never heard of that. As far as I know, that's a completely impossible thing.

However, I have heard of cities such as New York City under Giuliani where they beat back the crime and then the economy prospered and presumably people did better in general. So there are examples where battling crime first can get you to a place where you have at least the opportunity to work on whatever you think are the other problems. But if you don't do crime first, you're not going to have a base of business. You're not going to have a tax base. You won't have money to improve your schools from the tax base. This guy's an idiot. This is not a difference of opinion. This is an idiot. And he's elected. He's in charge.

And I guess on MSNBC, Peter Baker, he said that the people who were calling the left radical and lunatics are the ones ratcheting up the political rhetoric. Yeah. Do you think any Republicans are going to get a gun and murder somebody because they've heard the words radical and lunatic? Do you think that's likely? Where do these people come from? They have the worst takes.

Well, Bill Maher was on Friday night, his normal show, and he had some things to say. He did helpfully tell his audience, and they got really quiet, that Trump is not Hitler. He was very forceful about Trump is not Hitler. So you're not really helping yourself if that's where you're going with your narrative. And then he said, I'm paraphrasing that a little bit, but he said directly, Trump is not Hitler. So thank you for that. That helps a lot. And he said that the people who mocked Charlie Kirk's death or tried to justify it, he says, "I think you're gross. I have no use for you." So that was the right take. I agree with that. So I think he's on the right side of this. He's a free speech guy, so that makes sense.

But I wonder, I didn't hear him acknowledge like Charlamagne tha God did that he might have been part of the problem. Did Bill Maher ever accuse Trump of being a fascist or trying to steal democracy? Because I think he might have. I think he might have. But I'd rather be happy that he said Trump is not Hitler and happy that he's not happy with the people who celebrated it. So that's something. But I feel like he needs to kind of come clean that he may have used some of the words. I mean, he's not to blame. Yeah. I'm not going to say he's to blame, but collectively, don't you think they all knew the risk? You know, you've heard the phrase stochastic terrorism. The idea that you just use words to condemn somebody to the point where somebody says, "Man, I'm going to have to take care of this." And they get violent. So it feels like the Democrats knew on some level that they were putting Republicans in mortal danger, but they were okay with it because they wouldn't personally be blamed. Oh, I'm just one person who said a few words. You know, if there were hundreds and hundreds of people on TV saying a few words, well, you can't put me in jail for that.

David Axelrod, famed Democrat consultant sort of guy, he torched the Democrats over a few what he calls the mistakes. He said it was insane to spend three years before he did something serious about the border. Insane. And then he also said it was wrong not to be much more active in trying to reopen schools. Does it strike you as odd that these two problems that every Republican understood were gigantic problems that the Democrats had to wait a year after they were out of office to even admit that? Oh yeah, this was like insane. Just insane. Did he not know that at the time? I think he did. I think he did know that was insane, at least the border part.

And then Axelrod is complaining about the Republicans who may have used the word war recently, as in we're in a war with the other side. And he said, the words have specific meaning. When you say you're in a war, it's an invitation for people to commit acts of violence. And it didn't take long for social media to catch this on X. There's a clip of Chris Murphy, prominent Democrat, who was saying, you know, I think the day before Charlie Kirk was killed, he said, "We're in a war to save the country. You have to be willing to do whatever is necessary." Now if you say the context is a war and then you say you have to do whatever is necessary that does allow killing. That would be whatever is necessary to some people, not to me obviously. So Axelrod I would sort of partially agree that war is a fighting word but when I see Republicans talk that way, I know that they don't mean it literally, but when Democrats talk about Trump being the next authoritarian Hitler, they mean it literally. I mean, not that he's going to have a little mustache and change his name to Hitler, but that he would act like that. I believe they mean that literally. I've never heard any Republican who would believe that we're in a literal war as opposed to a political one.

Anyway, Trump has ordered the State Department to expand their screening to disallow people who are trying to get into the country on visas to disallow them if they've said bad things about the assassination of Charlie Kirk. And I guess they're using AI to search for things that they might have said. Now, I'm happy about that. I feel like you don't get to come in the front door and be our guest unless you're saying good things, at least on day one. I mean, you know, you shouldn't have a history of criticizing the country and then trying to get into it. So I'm all right with that. I don't know if that will pass any legal muster, but I'm definitely okay with it.

Andrew Tate, who sometimes has gone quiet, but now he's re-emerging. He was on Piers Morgan Uncensored, and he says one of the problems, the big problems in the country is women voting. And he says, "Who votes for liberalism? Who votes for soft on crime? Who votes for open borders? Who votes for DEI by and large? Male or female? Which sex? Female." So he says, "Why was this woman, you know, the Ukrainian woman who got stabbed on the light rail train?" He says, "Why is this woman going to work and riding the tram alone at night instead of thinking this is dangerous?" She believed that she can go and fend for herself. Bad things happen when we ignore reality. Society was built by evil, misogynistic men. I love the honesty of that. And then these feminists came along and destroyed it all. I believe in protecting women because I don't believe they can fight. And he says, "If that makes me a misogynist, so be it."

Now, of course, Andrew Tate is brilliant at being the most provocative on whatever the topic is. So this again is more of that. He's very good at this communication thing, if you haven't noticed. But I'll give you my take. I also believe that women did not evolve for defense, protection, defense to be their top priority sort of biologically designed to do it. Men did. Men are designed for violence. We're designed to protect what we love and kill what we don't and kill what we need to eat. And so I just ask you this, male or female, let's say you've got a date, one of you is male, one of you is female. You go into a restaurant. Which one of you knows where the exits are? Which one of you plans just automatically, reflexively what would happen if an armed person came in and shooting in the restaurant? Like what would be the first thing you do? Men do that. We are designed, we're trained from birth, I think, to be defense-oriented.

So if you're talking about what should we do about the border of the country, you don't want women involved in that. If you do, you're going to get an open border because women are trained, designed, evolved to put empathy first. Now, before you call me a misogynist, let me be clear. I do think that a woman could be the president and the best protector of the border. You remember Hillary was pretty hard-ass about the border before, you know, before she lied and said she wasn't. So yeah, you could get Margaret Thatcher. I could probably name half a dozen women who would be perfectly strong on all the things, strong on crime, strong on the border. So it's not about individuals, right? It's about averages. And the average applies to voting, but it doesn't apply to any one person who wanted to be extraordinary at one job. So any job is fine if they're qualified for the job. But as soon as you go with averages, it's like all right, everybody vote, men and women, everybody vote. You're gonna get the male vote, which would protect you from violence, watered down by the average of women are like, "Oh, we don't want to treat people badly. Let them in." So I won't go as far as Andrew Tate did, but I will say and obviously there's not really a practical way that women would lose the vote. I don't think that's serious. But he makes the point that if you're looking for the source of the problem, that's it. That's it. I'm pretty sure that if only men voted, we would have a very different looking world. You know, maybe in some ways it'd be worse, but in ways that matter a lot to us, I'm pretty sure it would be better. You know, we never would have opened the border, for example. That never would have happened, I don't think.

Comcast, who owns MSNBC, issued a public apology. You already know the story. One of their commentators got fired for kind of suggesting that maybe Charlie Kirk's narrative got him killed. And you know, they say they'll do better, etc. But I don't know. I don't know if their apology means anything because then they put the same bunch of lying idiots on the air to make the same claims that Trump's the one to blame for the violence. They all need to be fired if you're going to be taken seriously. And if you're not going to fire the liars and the morons who are making everything worse and they're basically triggering killers in my opinion, if you're not going to do something real about that, don't give us your little press release about that one guy you didn't care about anyway who didn't have his own show. They didn't care about him. They might have even wanted to get rid of him. Maybe he wasn't that good anyway. So they lost nothing and they just went right back to saying things that'll get Republicans killed. So no respect whatsoever for MSNBC or their management.

I guess the House Oversight Committee, James Comer's committee, has requested Epstein's financial records from the Treasury. It looks like they'll get them. To which I say, really? We're just now going to look at his financial records? Has anybody looked at them? Have his financial records been thoroughly examined by some police entity in prior cases, you know, prior situations? Or would the Treasury Department have to start from scratch and say, "Ah, nobody's looked into this, but you know, we'll spend a month trying to put it together." Well, maybe we'll find out everything or maybe we won't because allegedly Epstein was an expert at laundering money. So if we see all the official and legal ways that he moved money around, it might not tell us anything, but I'd love to see the dollar amounts, wouldn't you? Wouldn't you like to see if suddenly, I don't know, $50 million came into his account one day and there's no explanation for it? I don't know. And I don't know how much of his money would have been, let's say, in Swiss accounts or something like that. I don't know if we can penetrate them these days. So we might not find out anything.

Did you know that one of the ways to get rid of all those microplastics from the water? Scientists found out that you could put extracts from okra and fenugreek, some kind of plant-based thing, and tamarind. And what it does is it sticks the plastic and makes it heavy enough to sink to the bottom. So they can get rid of 90% of microplastics just by putting this natural goo, they call it, into the water. Now, this is one of several scientific breakthroughs I've told you about recently that all deal with microplastics. And I think microplastics will be another one of those Adams' law of slow-moving disaster situations where it looked like are we going to all die from eating plastic because it's in everything and we can't get it out? Well, it looks like we had enough time for the smart people to figure out some solutions. They don't have the solutions yet, but they're definitely knocking on the door with a number of different technologies.

As you know, Trump said he's going to deploy the National Guard to Memphis next because they have very high crime. I think they're the highest crime in the country. They have a Democrat mayor, but the Democrat mayor has allowed them to come in, but he's trying to have it both ways. He's trying to basically criticize Trump while accepting his help. So he's really walking a fine line here. What did he say? He said there are a lot of citizens in our community that are scared, said Mayor Young about the National Guard coming in, and he says he doesn't think sending troops will bring down crime but he welcomes the help. What an idiot there. There are so many Democrats who you can't even say well you know I have a slightly different opinion. That's not about opinion. This is just an idiot. I mean, it's hard to say anything except, "Oh, you're an idiot." Oh, okay. That's all we need to know. There's no point in discussing because you're not going to change the mind of an idiot. But he thinks that sending the troops will not bring down crime. After he watched Washington DC, he thinks it won't bring down crime. Well, at least temporarily it will. I don't know what happens in the long run. He says these citizens are scared. Really? They're going to be scared of the National Guard who won't be arresting anybody. They'll just be sort of a resource and being a presence and they're more afraid of the people who are stopping crime than the crime. So you'd rather take your chance with a murderer than a National Guard member? Is that what your citizens would prefer? You idiot. You absolute idiot.

Now, I've said this before, but I think all local governments are criminal organizations. I think they're all just finding ways to move money around. By the way, when the founders of the country designed our form of government, there wasn't that much money moving around, was there? If you were a mayor, it wasn't like, oh, we've got these giant contracts for building the new thing. We're building the new town center. We're building, I don't know, fixing the highways in town or whatever we're doing. If you didn't have a ton of money flowing through the city, well, maybe the people you elect would just do the job of taking care of the city. But the moment the dollar amounts go through the roof, which would be the current situation, you know, anything you did in a city would be ridiculously expensive, and then you let those same politicians decide where the money goes, you know, which vendors do the work, you are guaranteed to create a criminal organization around siphoning off some of that money just because there's so much of it.

So I would argue that the founders who brilliantly created a great system and constitution that if they had known how much money was going to be flowing through the cities eventually they would not have designed it the way they did. There's a part missing, the audit, you know. Now, obviously anything can be audited if people want to, but it needs to be a permanent part of the system. You've got to have something where the auditors change out often so they don't get corrupted or owned by the people they're trying to audit. And I don't know exactly what the system would be, but there needs to be gigantic transparency about where every dollar goes and we should all be able to easily look at it and we should look at, oh, it went to this vendor. Does this vendor have any connection, family or best friends or anything with the people who made the decision? Well, then you could maybe drive crime out of governments. But at the moment, I just assume that any mayor of a big city is a criminal. How many of you assume that? I assume that every mayor of every big city is a criminal and that maybe that's what attracts them to the job. I don't know. There might be some exceptions, but my assumption every time I see one is like, why would you even have that job? Who would want that job? Who would have so much skill that they could be a mayor and that that was their best career opportunity? Criminals. Criminals. So I believe it ends up being all criminals in local government.

Anyway, so we'll see what happens in Memphis. True. So if you're wondering, 63% of Memphis is Black. 43% in Washington DC is Black. Now, the mayor said that the base problem is poverty. And as I've explained, you can't work on the poverty until you work on the crime. So there you go.

Elon Musk and JD Vance are agreeing with each other on X that you could do a lot about crime if you just put in jail forever the few people who commit all the crimes. Now, you're probably aware that there are just individuals who can do hundreds of crimes and even be caught hundreds of times and released to do hundreds more. So if you don't put them in jail forever, your crime rate probably never goes down because they don't stop doing crimes and they're not going anywhere. So if you don't lock them up forever, there's no really hope of crime ever going down. It would be impossible. But if you lock up the most dangerous people who are doing probably I don't know what the ratio is but 80% of the crime probably maybe 5% of the criminals are doing 80% of the crime and we know who they are because we keep catching them. It's not like they're even hard to catch. They've been caught maybe dozens of times already but they're just let go. So JD and Elon agree on that and I feel like that would be a way better approach than the National Guard. The National Guard is not a bad idea. It brings attention to things and maybe calms things down temporarily, but doesn't seem like a permanent. I don't think it's a permanent fix. But jailing the people who do all the crimes, that would be permanent.

Now, if you wanted to get clever and say, "Hey, it's too evil to put people in jail for life because they let's say they shoplifted three times in a row or something like that." I don't know if that would be enough to be life in prison. But I feel like some people just need to be sent to the island where they can live with the other crooks and they're just not near people who are not crooks and maybe keep them there forever. But it doesn't have to be in a jail cell. You know, you can let them just wander around and eat cheap food and grow their own or they could survive. It's just you just can't let them with other people. All right. Get the fuck away from those prisoners, from the criminals, I say.

Missouri passed a Trump-approved redistricting plan which would give them one more Republican House seat probably, the AP is reporting. So that's pick up one and remember the House is really close so one seat could be the difference between a majority and not having majority for the Republicans.

We know now that John Bolton's personal email account, he was using a non-secure personal email for some stuff, he's being accused of, was hacked by a foreign entity. New York Post is reporting. Now, I don't know what foreign entity it was that's not being reported. But how do you feel knowing that he was using his personal email for some things that may have been classified? At least that's an allegation. And that foreign entities had hacked it. Well, that's bad. That's bad.

Trump is calling for a 50 to 100% tariff on China by NATO countries. So he's not talking about just the US. He's talking about NATO countries. Apparently the NATO countries are still buying a lot of oil. I don't know which ones are buying the most, but so NATO is fighting a war or supporting Ukraine, fighting a war against Russia while funding the war for Russia by buying their oil. Now, I don't know what options they have. Could it be that there's just not physically enough oil that you can get there to replace it or it's way too expensive? But even expensive doesn't seem to be a good enough reason, you know, in a war scenario. Anyway, so Trump says that NATO's commitment to win has been less than 100%. Now, I don't know if he's going to get away with this, but he wants to go major sanctions on Russia and major sanctions on China for buying oil from Russia. Do you think that'll pan out? Do you think first of all he'll get these tariffs that the European Union will do it? And then secondly, do you think it would work? You know, do you think it would make any difference? Because anything short of crashing Russia's economy isn't going to work. And even that is fraught with danger. So but it does look like Trump is serious about taking down the Russian economy.

Mamdani, who is running for mayor and probably will get elected in New York City, he vowed to arrest Netanyahu if he ever got a chance, if he ever came to the city. Now, the reason he would arrest him is that the International Criminal Court, which America is not a party to so we're not bound by it, but it issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu I think they're alleging him war crimes against humanity in Gaza and Mamdani says he would push to get him arrested. Now it doesn't look like that's within the power of a mayor so I don't know what he would do to get him arrested. Maybe encourage the police to do it. He couldn't order them to do it. He wouldn't have the authority. But he's making that promise.

Now, does that seem like a good idea to you? Well, apparently his pro-Palestinian stance drove 62% of the primary voters to the polls. So Mamdani has a very big anti-Israel support base. But I'll tell you, if you had told me that New York City would be electing a mayor who seems somewhat obviously anti-Israel, I would have said, "No, no, that can't happen." Has anybody told you the size of the Jewish citizens of New York City? I mean, there's so many of them that there's no way you can elect some anti-Semitic guy. Well, I guess I was not aware how many pro-Palestinians there are in New York City because it looks like that's going to happen. Now, I would not have predicted that in a million years. Anyway, but it'll be a good test of Israel's influence. You know how there are many Americans who say Israel really runs the United States when it comes to Israel and Middle East policy. Not everything but when it comes to what we do in the Middle East and wars and stuff like that in the Middle East people say Israel is controlling our government and there's a reasonable argument for that. AIPAC is very successful and blah blah blah. But this will be a good test. If Mamdani can get elected in New York City, you're going to have to wonder just how powerful is the Israeli lobby in the United States because I feel as if Israel would want to try as hard as possible to influence events so that that guy didn't get elected. But what happens if they don't have any impact? Would you be willing to reassess your belief that Israel is controlling the government of the United States? Because there's no way they'd be in favor of that. Mamdani getting elected. And so keep an eye on that. You know, anything could happen.

According to Interesting Engineering, there's a new, or at least I never heard of it, method for storing energy where they freeze air so cold that it turns liquid and it's much smaller. Takes up much less room when it becomes liquid and then they store it overnight. So they cool the air when the electricity is plentiful and cheap. And then when they need to release it, they've got some kind of device where when they warm it up a little bit, the super frozen air which had become liquid changes from liquid to air again and then it expands greatly and the expansion drives some turbines and it drives a generator. So apparently South Korea says they're close to being able to build that. They've got a prototype. I guess there are other countries that are pursuing it too.

So that's all I had for you today. Remember that Owen Gregorian will be running his spaces event right after I'm done. I'm going to say a few words privately to the Locals subscribers and then Owen will be firing up his spaces event on X if you want to follow up on anything that we said today.

Locals, I'm going to come at you privately in 30 seconds. The rest of you, thanks for joining. I appreciate it. I hope you come back tomorrow. We'll do it again.

Come on in.

It's time for your favorite thing.

Yeah, it is.

There are some empty chairs up front.

Grab a seat.

Make sure you've got a delicious beverage.

And uh get a cat in your lap if you have it.

If you have the option, it's always better with a cat on your lap.

Good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

He never had a better time.

But if you'd like to take a chance on elevating your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with her tiny shiny human brains.

All you need for that is a cup mug or a glass of tanker cher ste a canteen jugger flask a vessel of any kind.

Fill it with your favorite liquid.

I like coffee.

And join me now for the unparallel pleasure.

The dopamine hit of the day.

The thing that makes everything better.

It's called the simultaneous sip.

And it happens now.

Go.

All right, people.

Well, apparently Tommy Robinson has uh a gajillion people protesting in central London, I think it is.

And it turns out a lot of those people are carrying American flags and chanting about Charlie Kirk in London.

Do you believe that the the uh the Brits maybe got a little bit more energy for protesting because of Charlie Kirk's tragic situation?

I'll bet yes.

I'll bet yes.

And you you might see a global effect to the assassination.

This might be the first indication that we cannot calculate how big this is.

Now, I don't want to get ahead of myself because it's not that big yet, but the potential size of this is is hard to estimate, but if you look at the the crowds, look at the crowd pictures.

That's a lot of people, and they all have flags, some of them American.

Well, after this show, as is our tradition for Saturday, um Owen Gregorian will be hosting a spaces event.

That's the audio only event on X.

So, go to X after the show and just search for Owen Gregorian and you'll find the link.

Um I wonder if there's any science that didn't have to happen because they could have just asked me.

Oh, here's some.

According to the conversation, that's a publication.

Uh, cats give you oxytocin.

So, that's a brain chemistry that makes you feel good, makes you feel loved.

So, it's true.

We don't get it just from being close to other humans.

We also get oxytocin from animals.

And I think they had already tested dogs and that gave you oxytocin, but cats do too.

Uh, I will tell you that that was the primary reason I got my two cats.

I got them for oxytocin.

Like literally, I said to myself, um, I'm at a certain age and a certain health situation where the odds of me even touching other people are going way down.

you know, I'm lucky if I can get, you know, a handshake once a week.

I have, you know, it's just natural when you're when you're not in a place where you could get into a relationship and you're not in one.

Um, there's really a shortage of oxytocin and I think that can make you crazy.

I believe that if you have no oxytocin and that might be some of the problem with these shooters as well.

If they don't have access to touch, they don't get calmed down and they don't find any sense of peace just being in their own body and in their own life and they're looking for something big to give them a dopamine or some kind of thrill.

So get yourself a cat and your dopamine.

Well, I don't know about dopamine, but oxytocin will be way better.

Hey, I wonder if I can find a cat.

All right, I think I'll do the rest of the show with a cat on my cheek.

Oxytocin.

I'm getting all your oxytocin.

Stealing it.

I'm taking it.

Yeah, give it up, Gary.

All right.

I'll need another hit later, so come on back later.

Okay.

All right.

Well, they didn't really need to study that.

They could have just asked me, "Scott, do you think your cat will give you oxytocin?" And I would have said, "Hell yeah, you don't have to study that." Well, uh, scientists have, uh, they claim reversed aging in monkeys.

They found a way to reverse aging.

And I'm going to tell you exactly how.

But uh it was a certain kind of monkey called a macak.

Macak.

That's the name of the monkey.

Mak.

So I was interested in making Mak younger.

So if you want to talk about macak, this would be the place to do it.

They're monkeys.

Damn it.

You You're disgusting.

Oh man, you can make anything sound dirty.

They're monkeys, people.

They're monkeys.

Clean up your mind.

All right, you're probably wondering, how in the world do they reverse aging, but I'm going to explain it to you.

Now, pay attention.

I'm going to, you know, I have a a gift for summarizing and simplifying.

So, I'm going to take this complicated thing and try to give it to you in the simplest terms.

And if you don't understand this, well, I'm pretty sure the problem's on your end cuz I'm going to explain this so clearly.

All right.

So, mechanistically, the SRC derived exoomes, they reduce the cellular scinessence markers, and I'm talking about the P21cip, PI1, and the YH2 AAX obviously inflammation um from your ILB, your TNFA, your IL6, and your oxidative stress.

All right, you following me?

While enhancing heterocchromatin stability uh and immune function.

So this suppresses the the seagass sting inflammatory pathways and promotes systemic rejuvenation.

Everybody got that?

See it was kind of easy.

You just have to relax and listen and it all makes sense.

All right.

So, you already know that Apple introduced uh the new feature in their earbuds, their little earpieces that will translate, but I didn't realize how good it is.

Apparently, it's live translation um without a delay.

I mean, there's got to be some delay, but it's almost no delay.

But also, it's so good that both people can be talking over each other and it will still translate the other person.

That's pretty that that is impressive because in the real world people talk over each other and there's lots of other noise still works.

So imagine if you will this becomes more of a normal thing.

Can you imagine traveling to places that you would have never traveled before uh but being able to understand everybody?

Oh the problem is if you meet some villager in a remote place they're not going to have the translator.

So you would understand them, but they would have no idea what you're saying.

Uh maybe you could use another app for that.

But as I've said before, I have a hypothesis that the reason that the US, Russia, and China are sort of these friendnemy rivals, you know, maybe more rivals than friendmy.

I feel like it might be because of language.

I'm not, you know, I'm not positive.

I wouldn't bet my life on it.

But doesn't it seem to you that whenever we're dealing with a country that speaks perfect English, even if it's not a, you know, normally an English-speaking country, that whenever the leader is gifted in English, we get along with them.

Is that true?

I mean, it feels like that's mostly true, right?

So I just have this feeling that if the leaders can talk in the same language comfortably that everything works out differently.

It just it just feels like that's true.

You would you wouldn't imagine that because you think it's no no it's not the way they talk.

Scott, you know they have translators.

It's really these big issues.

You know the issues are the reason that we don't get get along.

To which I say I challenge that assumption.

I don't think that's how brains are organized.

I pe I think people when they can talk to people comfortably they just say well I'm not going to nuke my friend Don.

I don't I don't want to nuke my friend.

But if the only contact you have is through an interpreter.

I feel like that's like a little wall that allows you to say all right I'm over here.

My enemy is over there on the other side of that invisible wall.

Language is pretty important.

This might change everything.

Well, RS Technica is reporting Benj Edwards that uh there was an education report that was being put together by the Canadian government.

So, they uh they authorized it.

It took them 18 months to put together a report on the ethical uses of AI.

It's important that the report was about the ethical uses of AI.

And now the humorous irony.

Apparently the report included a number of uh fake fake sources because the AI lied to them and they believed it and they wrote down all the fake sources.

And it took them 18 months.

It take it took him 18 months to create a report with fake sources that AI probably wrote.

They probably had AI write a report about the dangers of AI if you if you use it unethically, I guess.

All right, good job, guys.

I saw a post by an ex user, Justine Moore, who I believe is a high-end investor, and uh she said, "The best X accounts are run by people who are who are at some level unemployable.

You have to be posting takes that disqualify you from a decent chunk of jobs in your industry in order to have a good ex account.

Well, I would agree with that.

Um, if I could just speak personally, I'm really sure that if I had a regular day job with a regular boss that I wouldn't say 75% of the things I say online.

there's no way I would say the things honestly that I say now.

Um, and still uh even though I didn't have a boss per se, I got cancelled worldwide for for one of my opinions or at least the way I stated it wasn't even because of the opinion.

Nobody disagreed with my opinion, but I got cancelled anyway.

Well, President Trump has uh indicated that he's looking into going after George Soros, figuring out how his money is flowing through and possibly getting to violent protests and other bad distortions in our country.

And he thinks that there might be a RICO case because Soros would be part of a larger organized group of people doing things that potentially could be illegal.

don't know exactly what would be in that category of illegal, but uh Trump does.

And he does include the younger Zoros.

So he's not just saying George, he's, you know, saying the Alexander as well.

And my question is, and I'm sure Mike Cernovich would be asking the same question, why only one billionaire?

It it it seems obvious to me that there are about something like half a dozen billionaires who are running the show because you know money drives everything.

Why would you only look into one of them?

It it feels like whatever they're doing, they're all doing it.

It seems like they're playing the same game.

So, I would say you want to maybe expand that a little bit.

Find out where the money's coming from.

Uh because it all it all looks dirty and unethical to me.

We'll talk about the Charlie Kirk situation, of course.

Um, so, uh, apparently Republicans, some Republicans, dozens of them, are trying to get congressional leaders to investigate what they call a sustained breakdown of law and order by anti-American ideology across the country.

Just News is reporting on this.

So, Chip Roy is organizing this, I think.

And uh so they've signed an open letter calling for the house leaders to form some committee to look into it because of the numerous attacks.

But they also so this is related to the story about RICO and Soros.

But they also say they want to follow the money and uncover the force behind the NOS's donors media public officials and all entities driving what they call a coordinated attack.

Now the real question will be the degree of coordination because uh was it uh uh who is the uh seven words you can't um George Carlin George Carlin used to explain that you don't need to be you don't have to have a meeting with you know notes and everybody says out loud oh I agree with you if everybody knows what to do.

So the Democrat world is one of these everybody knows what to do.

You don't have to have a meeting.

Do you think the hosts of MSNBC have to be instructed to call Trump a fascist?

No.

They just look what other people do and they say, "All right, that's what we're doing.

I guess we're just, you know, maybe we'll be worse than the others or better, but basically we're all doing what the others are doing." So you only need to sort of create the narrative and then everybody else just snaps to grid um and automatically conforms.

You don't really need to coordinate.

I feel another source of oxytocin coming.

Hey, look who it is.

It's Roman the cat coming to join his brother.

All right, we will move on.

So, the the alleged shooter of um Charlie Kirk, his name is Tyler Robinson.

He's a high school student.

Not no I'm sorry.

He's not a high school student.

He's 22.

But when he was in high school, he had a 40 average and he even had a scholarship to college, but he I guess he didn't last long in college.

So, he's living at home.

And probably you're wondering, how could somebody with a 4.0 no average be so stupid and so hypnotized um to do what he did.

And I can tell you one thing that's really useful to go through life with intelligence does not protect you from influence.

It just doesn't.

You You're sure that it should, right?

You're positive that it should.

Yeah.

He dropped out of college.

Um, you're sure that he you're sure that the smarter you are, the more invulnerable you'll be to influence, but just look around there.

There are people who are literally geniuses who are on completely opposite sides of things.

How is that possible?

If if intelligence uh got you to the right answer more often, wouldn't all the intelligent people be on the same side?

But they're not.

I mean, even even if you looked at the geniuses that were part of the Pay.

Pal original team, you know, the Elon Musk, the David Sachs, Reed Hoffman, you've got Reed Hoffman on the, you know, far left and funding things, and you've got Elon and Saxs on the right.

They're all geniuses, but they're, you know, they're they're not immune from being influenced by something in the environment like that.

There's just no protection whatsoever.

That's that's my official uh word as a trained hypnotist because hypnotists learn that the smarter you are, the easier it is to hypnotize you.

Let me say that again.

Hypnotists learn in school.

We're actually taught that that the smarter and more confident the subject is, the easier it is to hypnotize them.

don't know why, you know, I I can speculate because there I don't know.

I I don't I wouldn't even speculate, but it's a known it's a known phenomenon.

It's it's well enough known that um it's actually taught taught in school.

All right, what else we got here?

Um, so the as far as we know, but I think it's still a little fog of war, the uh the perpetrator, the shooter was a far-left kind of guy.

You might be seeing online some rumors that I think are unsubstantiated that he was actually further right um than Charlie Kirk.

Um, I believe that's all unsubstantiated stuff, but there's enough to it that I would say you better wait and find out more about this guy cuz it's not impossible.

You know, just almost anything that you're sure you know about this story might be wrong.

you know, we're we're at that point in the story where really there could be really basic fundamental things that we find out are just not true.

So, uh, as far as we can tell, he was a far-left guy, but, uh, maybe not.

We'll see.

All right.

Um, one of his friends from high school says, you know, he's definitely far left.

And to me, that's pretty convincing.

I I feel like if if his good high school friend said, "Oh, yeah, he's he's way left." That's probably dependable.

That that seems like a reasonably strong statement.

It's it's unlikely that he went from high school far left to a few years later far right.

You know, that doesn't seem likely.

All right.

So, as you know, we're in sort of a contest to blame whatever you think is the other side.

So, of course, conservatives are blaming the left for the um all the the dangerous talk that looks like it may have encouraged people to get violent.

And of course, the left the the left is arguing that Trump's rhetoric is the the root cause.

Unbelievable.

Yeah.

You know, uh we always joke about the uh the Democrats projecting like like if they murder you, they will accuse you of murder as they're stabbing you, right?

How many times have we seen that example?

as they're stabbing you.

Stop murdering me.

Stop it.

You're murdering me.

Stop it.

And you know, we're I'm just in a different movie, so all I see is them murdering us.

Uh but they're apparently I don't know if they believe their own movie.

What do you think?

Do you think the hosts of MMS NBC believe that Trump is really the root cause here and that they're not?

and that they believe they're not.

Do you believe they believe that?

It's possible because of a cognitive dissonance.

So, cognitive dissonance um won't allow you to form an opinion of yourself that's too negative if you're if you have a healthy ego, if you're not mentally ill.

So if you're perfectly normal, your brain is working the way it should, it will malfunction when you're presented with a situation where uh you have obviously done something stupid or evil and you don't think you're stupid and you don't think you're evil.

That's what triggers cognitive dissonance.

When there's a there's a disconnect between what you're doing or experiencing and what you believe to be true.

And then your brain spontaneously comes up with a story that usually sounds ridiculous to observers.

So here's the test.

Did the MSNBo NBC hosts are they experiencing the situation in which there's strong indication that they are the bad guys?

What do you think?

H have they created are they in a situation where it's becoming somewhat obvious that they're the bad guys and that they might be stupid and they might be evil.

Would you agree that that's sort of becoming obvious now?

What would smart people with normal brains, no, you don't need any mental illness, just a normal brain, what would they do in that situation?

Well, they would hallucinate that the real problem is something else so that they're off the hook.

And so they and they they snapped the grid on uh on Trump.

It's like uh why do you have a bunion on your toe?

Trump.

Trump.

Why does it look like it's going to rain today?

Trump.

So you've got this little Trump reflex that they've developed because everything's Trump's fault.

But the tell the way you can tell it's cognitive dissonance as opposed to just a different opinion is that the people who are not experiencing the cognitive dissonance look at it and they say um are you drunk or I mean are you are you in mushrooms or something?

because your opinion is so disconnected from any kind of reality that surely you can tell that you're completely on the wrong page, but they act like they can't.

And that's cognitive dissonance.

They're they're probably not acting.

They're probably actually having an experience in which their brain has calculated somehow that they're innocent.

So here's the test.

When they say that the reason that that guy killed Charlie Kirk is because of Trump's um rhetoric, does that sound well?

Maybe that could be true.

Is that how you think of it?

And even if his rhetoric is what caused people to get worked up, what rhetoric is that?

Is it where he said, "I'm going to protect you people in the United States by sealing the border." Is that the part?

How about the part where he said, "I'm going to reduce crime for all you poor people, especially poor black people living in DC and now Memphis." Is that the part?

You know, what was the dangerous rhetoric?

So, anyway, yeah, cognitive dissonance.

So, and then of course we're all trying to uh keep score and and we're the people on the right are positive that the political violence is almost but not completely limited to the left, right?

How how many of you believe that to be true?

That the political violence is largely not 100% but largely on the left.

Well, I'm not even sure yet because these stories are all a little uh you know, the various stories all have a little uh wrinkle to them.

For example, the guy who tried to kill Governor Shapiro in Pennsylvania, he tried to burn his house down and u probably wanted to kill his family.

That was somebody who was mad about him being pro-Israel or anti-Israel being maybe too pro-Israel.

Was that it?

But it was something about Israel.

So it wasn't even about left or right, you know, because the left and the right are kind of mixed on Israel.

It wasn't even that.

So how do you score that one?

Is that the left or the right when it really was a specific issue?

What about the guy who dressed as a police officer and killed or shot two different families, right?

Uh that were both in politics.

So, it was a husband and a wife and um but that was over I think that was over a specific issue, wasn't it?

Was it over abortion or something?

But I'm not sure.

Do you count the ones where somebody is mad at a specific issue like Israel or like Ukraine or like abortion?

Is that the same as saying it's a leftist or is that just somebody who's got this real, you know, real issue with this one issue?

I don't know.

But, uh, it feels like the violence is coming from the left.

I don't I don't know if the people on the right feel like it's coming from the right.

They might.

They have different news, so maybe they think that.

I don't know.

But we we don't really have a if if anybody's done it yet, I'd like to see it, but a really good accounting of, you know, how much of this is from the left versus the right.

It it seems to me, and let let me ask you this question.

I asked I asked my locals subscribers earlier, but I'm going to put it out to the rest of you.

Who is the first person um in sort of the political talking head world?

Who's the first person you ever heard say if the Democrats keep talking about Hitler and fascists that it's going to turn violent?

Who's the first person who told you that's going to happen?

Might have been me.

It might have been me.

And that would be informed my my background in hypnosis.

If if the words um start to converge in a certain way, the words cause action.

You know, words words are thoughts and thoughts become action.

So, um and then, uh Greg Guffeld was saying it on the five and on his show, Guffeld and he he has the bigger platform.

So, I he's the one who made it a common thought.

But now it's the only thing we're arguing about.

It's the the number one issue in the country is that that rhetoric is causing uh violence.

Now, you remember when I told you that when Trump back in 2015, I predicted that Trump would change more than politics, that he would change our very view of reality.

This is one of those times.

Once you understand that uh words words are the basis of your brain you know we think in words that if you change the words you change the thinking that's why people are always arguing use my definition of the word I say it's a genocide if if they can get you to accept their word then it changes your thinking.

So words change thinking.

The way you think of it is that you think and then you come up with the words to describe what you think.

Not the case.

We're we're a lot like AI and large language models.

The words come first.

If you if your brain has a certain set of words in it that it that it accesses you more easily or first, that's where your thinking is going to end up.

It'll end up where your words are.

So that's a hypnotist take.

So yes, this rhetoric is absolutely lethal.

Um let's see.

Yeah, MSNBC is is going all in on this Trump's fault.

And then you've got uh Jasmine Crockett, Democrat Jasmine Crockett.

She falsely claimed I guess she was on the Breakfast Club maybe yesterday and uh she says that both attempted Trump assassins were registered Republicans and had not voted Democrat.

Now that is completely made up.

That's not true.

How in the world did she imagine that the attempted assassins were Republicans?

So, I believe um I think she got fact checked on that.

I I think Charlemagne may have fact checked her on that.

Um then she she doubled down on calling Trump a quote wannabe Hiller.

She said it again.

She said it yesterday while Charlie Kirk is in a box.

He's not even in the ground yet.

And she decided that that was all right.

I'll say that again.

Um, and she she's she argues that uh calling Trump a you know a Nazi Hitler kind of guy is is no worse with then when Trump said I could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it.

Everybody who heard him say that knew that he was making a hyperbole kind of an, you know, uh, statement.

Not a single person said, "Hey, I've got an idea.

Why don't we shoot people on Fifth Avenue because our leader thinks he can do it, so why don't we do it?

Let's go shoot some people on Fifth Avenue." No.

Not a single person in the whole world thought that.

That was a call to violence.

And listening to Jasmine Crockett, the stupidest person in the Democrat party, I do think she might be the dumbest person in the in the entire party.

Um but at least uh Charlemagne Deod who is the host of the Breakfast Club um he admitted on the show where Jasmine was that uh he has engaged in rhetoric um that could be determined as inciting violence against Trump.

He he said I think we all incite whether we think we do or not.

And what I mean by that is I've definitely called that regime fascist.

Um, and he said if you hear somebody call him Hitler, if there's somebody that thinks, "Oh, Hitler." And then they look at a lot of actions that are going on, they're like, "Well, let's prevent this before million people get killed." So, I can understand how it all incites violence.

Good for you.

I have to say I have uh, you know, continuous mixed feelings about Charlemagne, the god.

certainly agree with uh some of his takes and I appreciate that he's taking the the both obvious and the honest take that there is something about our language that probably causes some action we don't want and that a lot of people are involved and he's he's admitting that he is too so I don't know if he'll stop doing it he he came close to almost sort forgiving that kind of stuff because everybody does it.

He didn't say that, but it sort of bumped into that thought.

Let's see.

Uh I I've also noticed that the people who are most angry about Charlie Kirk have a belief that he was a completely different person.

Completely different person.

I've I've heard somebody raging about how he was racist against blacks.

Now, I don't know every single thing that Charlie Kirk ever said, but I would still be willing to bet a large amount of money that he's never, not even once, said something that anybody could construe as racist against blacks.

I'll bet nothing.

I'll bet not once.

How about even I'll bet he never even brushed against it.

It's completely opposite his Christian identity.

And he and he would be way too smart to do it accidentally.

He was way too good.

So now, where in the world does that even come from?

Where does that come from?

I mean, do people just make up and other people say, "Well, I've never heard him talk, but my friend Bob says he's this terrible person." So, this is again, you know, the two movies on one screen that I always talk about.

How in the world would they have that opinion about him?

I I'm completely baffled.

Well, Chris Cuomo um was uh criticizing Elon Musk and he said, quote, "I know there's power in playing the victim, but Elon Musk is the one saying that the left is the party of murder." So, that's what Elon said the other day.

The left is the party of murder.

and and and he he acts like that is pushing extremism.

To which I say, is he really saying that Elon Musk should stop complaining about the left trying to kill him?

Do you know how much security that guy needs?

Can you imagine the number of death threats that Elon Musk has gotten?

All from the left.

So when he says that the left is the party of murder, yeah, there's some hyperbole in that obviously, but to to to imagine that Elon Musk is the problem.

He's literally the the victim of all kinds of death threats and entirely from the left, I would guess.

You know, if if it's not 100%, it's probably 99%.

So, I think uh Chris Cuomo missed the mark on that complaint because the problem is not the person complaining about getting murdered.

That's not the problem.

Oh my god.

Yeah, Charlie Kirk got murdered, but the real problem is the people complaining about it.

What?

What?

The real problem is the complaining about the murder.

I think the real problem is the murder.

There's a uh it's reminding me of a Nor Mc.

Donald joke.

You've probably all heard it by now when he he talks about uh Bill Cosby.

He goes, "You know, some people say the worst part about the Bill Cosby situation is the hypocrisy." And then he pauses for a fact and goes, "I don't think it's the hypocrisy.

I think the worst problem is the rape.

And it feels like that.

It's like, no, the worst problem is not the complaining.

It's not the complaining.

It's the murder.

It's the murder.

Um, then here's another example.

The account media lies spotted this.

So, the Tennessee House Representative uh Justin Pearson, he was on MSNBC, uh just recently, and here are some of the things he said after Charlie Kirk's murder.

So, wouldn't you think people would tone it down after he gets murdered?

Well, some of the things he said was Trump's an authoritarian dictator.

the the cities that he's sending the National Guard into will be quote occupied by the military.

Yeah, he's a white supremacist.

Um he called federal assistance for law enforcement terrorism.

We have to fight back against it.

These are not benign acts and black people are being used as pawns.

Now, does that sound like somebody who's trying to get a solution to any problems?

No.

that that is not somebody who's trying to solve a problem.

I don't know what that is, but it's not a problem solver.

And when asked about what the problem is, um, Representative Pearson said that uh instead of more policing, what they need is uh things to battle poverty, resources basically to battle poverty.

Because if you battled poverty and you improved the schools, you would have less violence.

Well, he's a stupid idiot because if you don't solve crime, you don't get any of that other stuff there.

There's there's no such thing as far as I know.

I've never heard of any high crime area that solve their crime by uh helping the poor.

Have you?

I've never heard of that.

As far as I know, that's a completely impossible thing.

However, I have heard of cities such as New York City under Giuliani where they they beat back the crime and then the economy prospered and presumably people did better in general.

So, there are examples where battling crime first can get you to a place where you have at least the opportunity to work on whatever you think are the other problems.

But if you don't do crime first, you're not going to have a a base of business.

You're not going to have a tax base.

You won't have money to, you know, improve your schools from the tax base.

Um, this guy's an idiot.

This is not a difference of opinion.

This is a idiot.

And he's elected.

He's in charge.

All right.

Um, and I guess on MSNBC, Peter Baker, he said that the people who were calling the left radical and lunatics are the ones ratcheting up the political rhetoric.

Yeah.

Um, do you think any Republicans are going to get a gun and murder somebody because they've heard the words radical and lunatic?

Do you think that's likely?

Where where do these people come from?

They have the worst takes.

Well, Bill Maher was on Friday night, his normal show, and he had some things to say.

He uh he did helpfully tell his audience, and they got really quiet, that Trump is not Hitler, you He He was very forceful about Trump is not Hitler.

So, you're not really helping yourself if that's where you're going with your narrative.

Um, and then he then he said, uh, I'm paraphrasing that a little bit, but but he said directly, Trump is not Hitler.

So, thank you for that.

That helps a lot.

Um, and he said that the people who mocked Charlie Kirk's death or tried to justify it, he says, "I think you're gross.

I have no use for you." So, that was the right take.

agree with that.

So, I think he's on the the right side of this.

He's a free speech guy, so that makes sense.

Um, but I wonder I I didn't hear him acknowledge like Charlemagne the God did that he might have been part of the problem.

Did Bill Maher ever accuse Trump of being a fascist or trying to steal democracy?

Because I think he might have.

I think he might have.

Uh, but I'd rather I'd rather be happy that he said Trump is not Hiller and happy that uh um he he he's not happy with the people who celebrated it.

So, that's something.

But I feel like I feel like he needs to kind of come clean that he may have used some of the words.

I mean, he's not to blame.

Yeah.

I'm not going to say he's to blame, but collectively, don't they think they don't you think they all knew the risk?

You know, you've heard the phrase stocatic stic um terrorism.

The idea that you just use words to condemn somebody to the point where somebody says, "Man, I'm going to have to take care of this." And they they get violent.

So, it feels like the Democrats knew on some level that they were putting Republicans in mortal danger, but they were okay with it because they wouldn't personally be blamed.

Oh, I'm just one person who said a few words.

You know, if there were hundreds and hundreds of people on TV saying a few words, well, you can't put me in jail for that.

So, David Axelrod, famed uh Democrat consultant sort of guy, he torched the Democrats over a few uh what he calls the mistakes.

He said it was insane to spend three years before he did something serious about the border.

Insane.

And then he also said it was wrong not to be much more active in trying to reopen schools.

All right.

Um, does it uh does it strike you as odd that these two problems that every Republican understood were gigantic problems that the Democrats had to wait uh what a year after they were out of office to even admit that?

Oh yeah, this was like insane.

Just insane.

Did he not know that at the time?

I I think he did.

I think he did know that was insane, at least the border part.

Um, and then Axel Rod is complaining about the Republicans who may have used the word war recently, as in uh, you know, we're in a war with the other side.

And he said, the words have specific meaning.

When you say you're in a war, it's an invitation for people to commit acts of violence.

And it didn't take long for social media and western lensmen caught this on X.

Um there's a clip of Chris Murphy, prominent Democrat, who was saying, you know, I think the day before Charlie Kirk was killed, he said, "We're in a war to save the country.

You have to be willing to do whatever is necessary." Now if you say the context is a war and then you say you have to do whatever is necessary that does allow killing that would be whatever is necessary to some people not to me obviously um so Axelrod um I would sort of partially agree that war is a it's a fighting word but when I see uh when I see Republicans talk that Okay.

Um, I know that they don't mean it literally, but when Democrats talk about Trump being a, you know, the next authoritarian Hitler, they mean it literally.

Yeah.

I mean, not that he's going to have a little mustache and change his name to Hitler, but that he would act like that.

I believe they mean that literally.

I I've never heard any I've never heard any Republican who would believe that we're in a literal war as opposed to a political one.

Anyway, Trump has ordered the uh State Department to expand their screening to uh disallow people who are trying to get into the country on visas uh to disallow them if they've said bad things um about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

And I guess they're using AI to search for things that they might have said.

Now, I'm happy about that.

Yeah, I I feel like uh you don't get to come in the front door and and be our guest.

Uh unless you're saying good things, at least on day one.

I mean, you know, you shouldn't have a history of criticizing the country and then trying to get into it.

So, I'm all right with that.

I don't know if that will pass any legal muster, but I'm definitely okay with it.

Well, Andrew Tate, who sometimes has gone quiet, but now he's re-emerging.

He was on Pierce Morgan Uncensored, and uh he says one of the problems, the big problems in the country is uh uh women voting.

And he says, "Who votes for liberalism?

Who votes for soft on crime?

Who votes for open borders?

Who votes for DEI by and large?

Male or female?

Which sexes?

female.

So he he says, "Why was this woman, you know, the Ukrainian woman who got stabbed on the light rail train?" He says, "Why is this woman going to work and riding the tram uh alone at night instead of thinking this is dangerous?" She believed that she can go and fend for herself.

Bad things happen when we ignore reality.

Society was built by evil, misogynistic men.

I love the honesty of that.

And then these feminists came along and destroyed it all.

I believe in protecting women because I don't believe they can fight.

And he says, "If that makes me a misogynist, so be it." Well, now, of course, Andrew Tate uh is brilliant at being the most provocative on whatever the topic is.

So, this again is is more of that.

He's very good at this communication thing, if you haven't noticed.

Um but I'll I'll give you my take.

I also believe that uh women are did not evolve for defense protection defense to be their top priority sort of biologically designed to to do it.

Men did you know men are designed for violence.

We're designed to protect what we love and kill what we don't and kill what we need to eat.

And so I just ask you this, male or female, let's say you've got a date, one of you is male, one of you is female.

You go into a restaurant.

Which one of you knows where the exits are?

Which one of you plans just automatically, reflexively what would happen if a if an armed person came in and shooting in the restaurant?

Like what would be the first thing you do?

Men do that.

We are designed, we're trained from birth, I think, uh to be defenseoriented.

So if you're talking about uh what should we do about the border of the country, you don't want women involved in that.

If you do, you're going to get an open border because women are trained, designed, evolved to put empathy first.

Now, before you call me a misogynist, uh, let me be clear.

I do think that a woman could be, you know, the president and the best protector of the border.

You remember Hillary was pretty hard ass about the border before, you know, before she lied and said she wasn't.

Um, so yeah, you could get Margaret Thatcher.

Um, you know, I I could probably name half a dozen women um who who would be, you know, perfectly strong on all the things, strong on crime, strong on the border.

So, it's not about individuals, right?

It's about averages.

And the average applies to voting, but it doesn't apply to any one person who wanted to be extraordinary at one job.

So any job is fine if they, you know, if they're qualified for the job.

But as soon as you go with averages, it's like, all right, everybody vote, men and women, everybody vote.

you're gonna get the male vote, which would protect you from violence, watered down by the average of women are like, "Oh, we don't want to treat people badly.

Let them in." So, I won't go as far as Andrew Tate did, but I will say uh and obviously there's there's not really a practical way that that uh women would lose the vote.

I I don't think that's serious.

But he makes the point that if you're looking for the source of the problem, that's it.

That's it.

I'm pretty sure that if only men voted, we would have a very different looking world.

You know, maybe in some ways it'd be worse, but in in ways that uh matter a lot to us, I'm pretty sure it would be better.

You know, we we never would have opened the border, for example.

That never would have happened, I don't think.

Well, Comcast um who owns MSNBC issued a public apology.

Uh you already know the story.

One of their one of their commentators got fired for um kind of suggesting that maybe Charlie Kirk's narrative got him killed.

And you know, they say they'll do better, etc.

But I don't know.

I don't know if their apology means anything because then they put the same bunch of lying idiots on the air to make the same claims that uh Trump's the one to blame for the uh the violence.

They all need to be fired if you're going to be taken seriously.

And if you're not going to be if you're not going to fire the liars and the morons uh who are making everything worse and they're basically triggering killers in my opinion.

Uh if you're not going to do something real about that, don't give us your little press release about that what guy you didn't care about anyway who didn't have his own show.

They didn't care about him.

They might have even wanted to get rid of him.

Maybe he wasn't that good anyway.

So they lost nothing and they just went right back to saying things that'll get Republicans killed.

So no respect whatsoever for MSNBC or their management.

All right.

Um I guess the House Oversight Committee, James Comr's committee has uh requested Epstein's financial records from the Treasury.

It looks like they'll get them.

To which I say, really?

We're we're just now going to look at his financial records.

Has anybody looked at him?

Have his financial records been thoroughly examined by some police entity in pri prior cases, you know, prior situation.

um or would the uh Treasury Department have to start from scratch and say, "Ah, nobody nobody's looked into this, but you know, we'll we'll spend a month trying to put it together." Um well, maybe we'll find out everything because or maybe we don't we won't because allegedly Epstein was an expert at laundering money.

So, if we see all the official and legal ways that he moved money around, it might not tell us anything, but I'd love to see the dollar amounts, wouldn't you?

Wouldn't you like to see if suddenly, I don't know, $50 million came into his account one day and there's no explanation for it?

I don't know.

And I don't know how much of his money would have been, let's say, in Swiss accounts or something like that.

I don't know if we can penetrate them these days.

So, we might not find out anything.

Well, did you know that one of the ways to get rid of all those microlastics from the water?

Um, scientists found out that you could put uh extracts from okra and fenugreek, some kind of plant-based thing, um, and tamarind.

And what it does is it sticks the plastic and makes it heavy enough to sink to the bottom.

So they can get rid of 90% of microplastics just by putting these natural goo they call it into the water.

Now, this is one of uh several scientific breakthroughs I've told you about recently that all deal with microplastics.

And I think microplastics will be another one of those Adam's law of slowmoving disaster situations where it looked like uh are we going to all die from eating plastic because it's in everything and we can't get it out?

Well, it looks like we had enough time for the smart people to figure out some solutions.

They don't have the solutions yet, but they're definitely knocking on the door with a number of different technologies.

Well, as you know, Trump said he's going to deploy the National Guard to Memphis next um because they have a very high crime.

I think they're the highest crime in the country.

They have a Democrat mayor, but the Democrat mayor has uh allowed them to come in, but he's trying to have it both ways.

He he he's trying to basically criticize Trump while while accepting his help.

So, he's really he's really walking a fine line here.

Um what did he say?

Uh he said uh there are a lot of citizens in our community that are scared uh said Mayor Young about the National Guard coming in and he says he doesn't think sending troops will bring down crime but he welcomes the help.

What an idiot there.

There are so many Democrats who you can't even say well you know I have a slightly different opinion.

That's not about opinion.

This is just a idiot.

I mean, it's hard to it's hard to say anything except, "Oh, oh, oh, you're an idiot." Oh, okay.

That's all we need to know.

There's no point in discussing because you're not going to change the mind of an idiot.

But he thinks that sending the truth will not bring down crime.

After he watched Washington DC, he thinks it won't bring down crime.

Well, at least temporarily it will.

I don't know what happens in the long run.

Um he says these citizens are scared really they're going to be scared of the National Guard who won't be arresting anybody.

They'll just be sort of a resource and you know being a a presence and they're more they're more afraid of the people who are stopping crime than the crime.

So, you'd rather take your chance with a murderer than a National Guard member?

Is that what your citizens would prefer?

You idiot.

You just You absolute idiot.

Now, I've said this before, but I think all local uh governments are criminal organizations.

I think they're all just finding ways to move money around.

By the way, when the founders of the country designed our form of government, there wasn't that much money moving around, was there?

If you were a mayor, it wasn't like, oh, we've got these giant contracts for, you know, building the new thing.

We're building the new town center.

We're building, I don't know, fixing the highways in town or whatever we're doing.

If you didn't have a ton of money flowing through the city, well, maybe maybe the people you elect would just do the job of taking care of the city.

But the moment the the dollar amounts go through the roof, which would be the current situation, you know, anything you did in a city would be ridiculously expensive, and then you let those same politicians decide where the where the money goes, you know, which vendors do the work.

you are guaranteed guaranteed to create a criminal organization around siphoning off some of that money just because there's so much of it.

So I would argue that the founders who brilliantly created a great system and constitution that if they had known how much money was going to be flowing through the cities eventually they would not have designed it the way they did.

there's a part missing the the audit, you know.

Now, obviously anything can be audited if people want to, but it needs to be a permanent part of the system.

You've got to have something where the auditors change out often so they don't get corrupted or owned by the, you know, the people they're trying to audit.

Um, and I don't know exactly what the system would be, but there needs to be gigantic transparency about where every dollar goes and we should all be able to easily look at it and we should look at, oh, it went to this vendor.

Does this vendor have any connection, family or best friends or anything with the people who made the decision?

Well, then you could maybe drive crime out of and governments.

But at the moment, I just assume that any mayor of a big city is a criminal.

How many of you assume that?

I assume that every mayor of every big city is a criminal and that maybe that's what attracts him to the job.

I don't know.

There might be some exceptions, but my but my assumption every time I see one is like, why would you even have that job?

Who would want that job?

Who would have so much skill that they could be a mayor and that that was their best career opportunity?

Criminals.

Criminals.

Uh so I believe it ends up being all criminals in local government.

Anyway, so we'll see what happens in Memphis.

True.

Um, so if you're wondering, 63% of Memphis is black.

43% in Washington DC is black.

Now, the mayor said that the the base problem is poverty.

Um, and as I've explained, you can't work on the poverty until you work on the crime.

Um, so there you go.

So, uh, Elon Musk and JD Vance are agreeing with each other on on acts that, uh, you could do a lot about crime if you just put in jail forever the few people who commit all the crimes.

Now, you're probably aware that they're just individuals who can do hundreds of crimes and even be caught hundreds of times and released to do hundreds of more.

So if you don't put them in jail forever, your crime rate probably never goes down because they don't stop doing crimes and they're not going anywhere.

So if you don't lock them up forever, there's no really hope of crime ever going down.

It's it would be impossible.

Uh but if you lock up the most dangerous people who are doing probably I don't know what the ratio is but 80% of the crime probably maybe 5% of the criminals are doing 80% of the crime and we know who they are because we keep catching them.

It's not like they're even hard to catch.

They've been caught maybe dozens of times already but they're just let go.

So JD and Elon agree on that and I feel like that would be a way better approach than the National Guard.

The National Guard is not a bad idea.

It brings attention to things and maybe calms things down temporarily, but doesn't seem like a permanent.

I don't think it's a permanent fix.

But jailing the people who do all the crimes, that would be permanent.

Now, if you wanted to get clever and say, "Hey, it's too evil to put people in jail for life because they uh let's say they shoplifted three times in a row or something like that." I don't know if that would be enough to be life in prison.

But I feel like some people just need to be, you know, sent to the island where they can live with the other crooks and they're just not near people who are not crooks and maybe keep them there forever.

But it doesn't have to be in a jail cell.

You know, you can let them just wander around and eat cheap food and grow their own or, you know, they could survive.

It's just you just can't let them with other people.

All right.

Get the f away from those prisoners, from the uh from the criminals, I say.

Um, Missouri passed a uh Trump approved redistricting plan which would give them one more Republican House seat probably the AP's reporting.

So that's pick up a one and uh remember the House is really close so one C could be the difference between a majority and not having majority for the Republicans.

Well, we know now that John Bolton's personal email account, he was using a nonsecure personal email for some stuff he's being accused of, uh, was hacked by a foreign entity.

New York Post is reporting.

Now, I don't know what foreign entity it was that's not being reported.

Um, but how do you feel knowing that he was using his personal email for some things that may have been classified?

At least that's an allegation.

And uh that foreign entities had hacked it.

Well, that's bad.

That's bad.

Um, Trump is calling for a 50 to 100% tariff on uh, China by NATO countries.

So, he's not talking about just the US.

He's talking about NATO countries.

Apparently, the NATO countries are still buying a lot of oil.

I don't know which ones are buying the most, but so NATO is fighting a war or supporting Ukraine, fighting a war against Russia while funding the war for Russia by buying their oil.

Now, I don't know what options they have.

Could it be that there's just not physically enough oil that you can get there to replace it or it's way too expensive?

But even expensive doesn't expensive doesn't seem to be a good enough reason, you know, in a war scenario.

Anyway, so Trump says that NATO's commitment to win has been less than 100%.

Now, I don't know if he's going to get away with this, but he wants to go major sanctions on Russia and major sanctions on China for buying oil from Russia.

Do you think that'll pan out?

Do you think first of all he'll get these uh tariffs that the European Union will do it?

And then secondly, do you think it would work?

You know, do you think it would make any difference?

Because anything short of crashing Russia's economy isn't going to work.

And even that is fraught with danger.

So, but it does look like Trump is serious about taking down the Russian economy.

Well, Manny, the the kami, who is running for mayor and probably will get elected in New York City, um he vowed to arrest Netanyahu um if he ever got a chance, if he ever came to the city.

Now, the reason he would arrest him is that what is it?

the uh international criminal court which the America is not a party to so we're not bound by it but it it issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu I think they're alleging him war crimes against humanity in Gaza and uh mom Donnie says he would push to get him arrested now it doesn't look like that's within the power of a mayor so I don't know what he would do to get him arrested I know encourage the police to do it.

He couldn't order them to do it.

He wouldn't have the authority.

But I don't know.

But he's making that promise.

Now, does that seem like a good idea to you?

Well, um, apparently his pro Palestinian stance drove 62% of the primary voters to the the polls.

So, Mammi has a very big anti-Israel support base.

But I'll tell you, if you had told me that New York City would be electing a mayor who seems somewhat obviously anti-Israel, I would have said, "No, no, that can't happen." Has anybody told you the size of the Jewish um citizens of New York City?

I mean, there's so many of them that there's no way you can elect some anti-Semitic guy.

Well, I guess I was not aware how many pro Palestinians there are in New York City because it looks like it looks like that's going to happen.

Now, I would not have predicted that in a million years.

Anyway, um but it'll be a good test of Israel's influence.

You know how uh there are many Americans who say Israel really runs the United States when it comes to Israel and Middle East policy.

Not not everything but uh when it comes to what we do in the Middle East and wars and stuff like that uh in the Middle East uh people say Israel is controlling our government and there's you know a reasonable argument for that.

Apac is very successful and uh blah blah blah.

Um but it but this will be a good test.

If Mamami can get elected in New York City, you're going to have to wonder just how powerful is the Israeli lobby in the United States because I feel as if you know Israel would want to try as hard as possible to influence events so that that guy didn't get elected.

But what happens if they don't have any impact?

Would you be willing to reassess your belief that Israel is controlling the government of the United States?

Because there's no way they'd be in favor of that.

Mom dami getting elected.

And so keep an eye on that.

You know, anything could happen.

Well, according to interesting engineering, there's a uh new, or at least I never heard of it, method for storing energy where they freeze air so cold that it turns liquid and it's much smaller.

Um, takes up much less room when it becomes liquid and then they store it overnight.

So, they they cool the air when the electricity is plentiful and cheap.

And then when they need to release it, they've got some kind of device where when they warm it up a little bit, the the super frozen air which had become liquid changes from liquid to air again and then it expands greatly and the expansion drives some turbines and it drives a generator.

So apparently uh Korea says they're South Korea says they're close to being able to build that.

They've got a prototype All right.

Um, I guess there are other countries they're they're pursuing it, too.

So, that's all I had for you today.

Remember that Owen Gregorian will be running his spaces event right after I'm done.

I'm going to say a few words privately to the local subscribers and then uh Owen will be firing up his spaces event on X if you want to follow up on anything that we said today.

All right.

Um, locals, I'm going to come at you privately in 30 seconds.

The rest of you, thanks for joining.

I appreciate it.

I hope you come back tomorrow.

We'll do it again.

Come on in. It's time for your favorite

thing.

Yeah, it is.

There are some empty chairs up front.

Grab a seat. Make sure you've got a

delicious beverage.

And uh get a cat in your lap if you have

it. If you have the option,

it's always better with a cat on your

lap.

[Music]

Good morning everybody and welcome to

the highlight of human civilization.

It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

He never had a better time. But if you'd

like to take a chance on elevating your

experience up to levels that nobody can

even understand with her tiny shiny

human brains. All you need for that is a

cup mug or a glass of tanker cher ste a

canteen jugger flask a vessel of any

kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid.

I like coffee. And join me now for the

unparallel pleasure. The dopamine hit of

the day. The thing that makes everything

better. It's called the simultaneous

sip. And it happens now. Go.

All right,

people. Well, apparently Tommy Robinson

has uh a gajillion people protesting in

central London, I think it is. And it

turns out a lot of those people are

carrying American flags and chanting

about Charlie Kirk in London. Do you

believe that the the uh the Brits maybe

got a little bit more energy for

protesting because of Charlie Kirk's

tragic situation?

I'll bet yes. I'll bet yes. And you you

might see a global effect to the

assassination.

This might be the first indication that

we cannot calculate how big this is.

Now, I don't want to get ahead of myself

because it's not that big yet,

but the potential size of this is is

hard to estimate, but if you look at the

the crowds, look at the crowd pictures.

That's a lot of people, and they all

have flags, some of them American.

Well, after this show, as is our

tradition for Saturday, um Owen

Gregorian will be hosting a spaces

event. That's the audio only event on X.

So, go to X after the show and just

search for Owen Gregorian and you'll

find the link.

Um I wonder if there's any science that

didn't have to happen because they could

have just asked me. Oh, here's some.

According to the conversation, that's a

publication. Uh, cats

give you oxytocin.

So, that's a brain chemistry that makes

you feel good, makes you feel loved. So,

it's true. We don't get it just from

being close to other humans. We also get

oxytocin

from animals. And I think they had

already tested dogs and that gave you

oxytocin, but cats do too. Uh, I will

tell you that that was the primary

reason I got my two cats. I got them for

oxytocin. Like literally, I said to

myself, um, I'm at a certain age and a

certain health situation where the odds

of me even touching other people

are going way down. you know, I'm lucky

if I can get, you know, a handshake once

a week. I have, you know, it's just

natural when you're when you're not in a

place where you could get into a

relationship and you're not in one.

Um, there's really a shortage of

oxytocin and I think that can make you

crazy. I believe that if you have no

oxytocin

and that might be some of the problem

with these shooters as well. If they

don't have access to touch, they don't

get calmed down and they don't find any

sense of peace just being in their own

body and in their own life and they're

looking for something big to give them a

dopamine or some kind of thrill. So get

yourself a cat and your dopamine. Well,

I don't know about dopamine, but

oxytocin will be way better. Hey, I

wonder

if I can find a cat. All right, I think

I'll do the rest of the show with a cat

on my cheek.

Oxytocin.

I'm getting all your oxytocin. Stealing

it. I'm taking it. Yeah, give it up,

Gary. All right.

I'll need another hit later, so come on

back later. Okay.

All right. Well, they didn't really need

to study that. They could have just

asked me, "Scott, do you think your cat

will give you oxytocin?" And I would

have said, "Hell yeah, you don't have to

study that."

Well, uh, scientists have, uh, they

claim reversed aging in monkeys. They

found a way to reverse aging. And I'm

going to tell you exactly how. But uh it

was a certain kind of monkey called a

macak. Macak.

That's the name of the monkey. Mak.

So I was interested in making Mak

younger.

So if you want to talk about macak, this

would be the place to do it. They're

monkeys. Damn it. You You're disgusting.

Oh man, you can make anything sound

dirty. They're monkeys, people. They're

monkeys. Clean up your mind.

All right, you're probably wondering,

how in the world do they reverse aging,

but I'm going to explain it to you. Now,

pay attention. I'm going to, you know, I

have a a gift for summarizing and

simplifying. So, I'm going to take this

complicated thing and try to give it to

you in the simplest terms. And if you

don't understand this, well, I'm pretty

sure the problem's on your end cuz I'm

going to explain this so clearly. All

right. So, mechanistically, the SRC

derived exoomes, they reduce the

cellular scinessence markers, and I'm

talking about the P21cip, PI1, and the

YH2 AAX obviously inflammation um from

your ILB, your TNFA, your IL6, and your

oxidative stress. All right, you

following me? While enhancing

heterocchromatin stability uh and immune

function. So this suppresses the the

seagass sting inflammatory pathways and

promotes systemic rejuvenation.

Everybody got that? See it was kind of

easy. You just have to relax and listen

and it all makes sense.

All right. So, you already know that

Apple introduced uh the new feature in

their earbuds, their little earpieces

that will translate, but I didn't

realize how good it is. Apparently, it's

live translation

um without a delay. I mean, there's got

to be some delay, but it's almost no

delay. But also, it's so good that both

people can be talking over each other

and it will still translate the other

person. That's pretty that that is

impressive because in the real world

people talk over each other and there's

lots of other noise still works. So

imagine if you will this becomes more of

a normal thing. Can you imagine

traveling to places that you would have

never traveled before

uh but being able to understand

everybody? Oh the problem is if you meet

some villager in a remote place they're

not going to have the translator. So you

would understand them, but they would

have no idea what you're saying. Uh

maybe you could use another app for

that. But as I've said before, I have a

hypothesis that the reason that the US,

Russia, and China are sort of these

friendnemy rivals, you know, maybe more

rivals than friendmy. I feel like it

might be because of language.

I'm not, you know, I'm not positive. I

wouldn't bet my life on it. But doesn't

it seem to you that whenever we're

dealing with a country that speaks

perfect English, even if it's not a, you

know, normally an English-speaking

country, that whenever the leader is

gifted in English, we get along with

them. Is that true? I mean, it feels

like that's mostly true, right? So I

just have this feeling that if the

leaders can talk in the same language

comfortably that everything works out

differently. It just it just feels like

that's true. You would you wouldn't

imagine that because you think it's no

no it's not the way they talk. Scott,

you know they have translators. It's

really these big issues. You know the

issues are the reason that we don't get

get along. To which I say I challenge

that assumption.

I don't think that's how brains are

organized. I pe I think people when they

can talk to people comfortably

they just say well I'm not going to nuke

my friend Don.

I don't I don't want to nuke my friend.

But if the only contact you have is

through an interpreter.

I feel like that's like a little wall

that allows you to say all right I'm

over here. My enemy is over there on the

other side of that invisible wall.

Language is pretty important. This might

change everything.

Well, RS Technica is reporting Benj

Edwards that uh there was an education

report that was being put together by

the Canadian government. So, they uh

they authorized it. It took them 18

months to put together a report on the

ethical uses of AI.

It's important that the report was about

the ethical uses of AI. And now the

humorous irony. Apparently the report

included a number of uh fake fake

sources because the AI lied to them

and they believed it and they wrote down

all the fake sources.

And it took them 18 months. It take it

took him 18 months to create a report

with fake sources

that AI probably wrote. They probably

had AI write a report about the dangers

of AI if you if you use it unethically,

I guess. All right, good job, guys.

I saw a post by an ex user, Justine

Moore, who I believe is a

high-end investor, and uh she said, "The

best X accounts are run by people who

are who are at some level unemployable.

You have to be posting takes that

disqualify you from a decent chunk of

jobs in your industry in order to have a

good ex account. Well, I would agree

with that. Um,

if I could just speak personally, I'm

really sure that if I had a regular day

job with a regular boss that I wouldn't

say

75% of the things I say online. there's

no way I would say the things honestly

that I say now. Um, and still

uh even though I didn't have a boss per

se, I got cancelled worldwide

for for one of my opinions or at least

the way I stated it wasn't even because

of the opinion. Nobody disagreed with my

opinion, but I got cancelled anyway.

Well, President Trump has uh indicated

that he's looking into going after

George Soros, figuring out how his money

is flowing through and possibly getting

to violent protests and other bad

distortions in our country. And he

thinks that there might be a RICO case

because Soros would be part of a larger

organized group of people doing things

that potentially could be illegal. don't

know exactly what would be in that

category of illegal, but uh Trump does.

And he does include the younger Zoros.

So he's not just saying George, he's,

you know, saying the Alexander as well.

And my question is, and I'm sure Mike

Cernovich would be asking the same

question, why only one billionaire? It

it it seems obvious to me that there are

about something like half a dozen

billionaires who are running the show

because you know money drives

everything. Why would you only look into

one of them?

It it feels like whatever they're doing,

they're all doing it. It seems like

they're playing the same game. So, I

would say you want to maybe expand that

a little bit. Find out where the money's

coming from. Uh because it all it all

looks dirty and unethical to me.

We'll talk about the Charlie Kirk

situation, of course.

Um,

so, uh, apparently Republicans, some

Republicans, dozens of them, are trying

to get congressional leaders to

investigate what they call a sustained

breakdown of law and order by

anti-American ideology

across the country. Just News is

reporting on this. So, Chip Roy is

organizing this, I think. And uh so

they've signed an open letter calling

for the house leaders to form some

committee to look into it because of the

numerous attacks. But they also so this

is related to the story about RICO and

Soros. But they also say they want to

follow the money and uncover the force

behind the NOS's donors media public

officials and all entities driving what

they call a coordinated attack. Now the

real question will be the degree of

coordination

because uh was it uh uh who is the uh

seven words you can't um George Carlin

George Carlin used to explain that you

don't need to be you don't have to have

a meeting with you know notes and

everybody says out loud oh I agree with

you if everybody knows what to do.

So the Democrat world is one of these

everybody knows what to do. You don't

have to have a meeting. Do you think the

hosts of MSNBC

have to be instructed to call Trump a

fascist? No. They just look what other

people do and they say, "All right,

that's what we're doing. I guess we're

just, you know, maybe we'll be worse

than the others or better, but basically

we're all doing what the others are

doing." So you only need to sort of

create the narrative and then everybody

else just snaps to grid um and

automatically conforms. You don't really

need to coordinate.

I feel another source of oxytocin

coming. Hey, look who it is. It's Roman

the cat coming to join his brother.

All right, we will move on.

So, the the alleged shooter of um

Charlie Kirk, his name is Tyler

Robinson. He's a high school student.

Not no I'm sorry. He's not a high school

student. He's 22. But when he was in

high school, he had a 40 average and he

even had a scholarship to college, but

he I guess he didn't last long in

college. So, he's living at home. And

probably you're wondering, how could

somebody with a 4.0 no average

be so stupid and so hypnotized

um to do what he did. And I can tell you

one thing that's really useful to go

through life with intelligence does not

protect you from influence.

It just doesn't. You You're sure that it

should, right? You're positive that it

should. Yeah. He dropped out of college.

Um, you're sure that he you're sure that

the smarter you are, the more

invulnerable you'll be to influence, but

just look around there. There are people

who are literally geniuses who are on

completely opposite sides of things. How

is that possible? If if intelligence

uh got you to the right answer more

often, wouldn't all the intelligent

people be on the same side? But they're

not. I mean, even even if you looked at

the geniuses that were part of the

PayPal original team, you know, the Elon

Musk, the David Sachs, Reed Hoffman,

you've got Reed Hoffman on the, you

know, far left and funding things, and

you've got Elon and Saxs on the right.

They're all geniuses,

but they're, you know, they're they're

not immune from being influenced by

something in the environment like that.

There's just no protection whatsoever.

That's that's my official uh word as a

trained hypnotist because hypnotists

learn that the smarter you are, the

easier it is to hypnotize you. Let me

say that again. Hypnotists learn in

school. We're actually taught that that

the smarter and more confident the

subject is, the easier it is to

hypnotize them.

don't know why, you know, I I can

speculate because there I don't know. I

I don't I wouldn't even speculate,

but it's a known it's a known

phenomenon. It's it's well enough known

that um it's actually taught taught in

school. All right,

what else we got here?

Um,

so the as far as we know, but I think

it's still a little fog of war, the uh

the perpetrator, the shooter was a

far-left kind of guy. You might be

seeing online some rumors that I think

are unsubstantiated

that he was actually further right

um than Charlie Kirk. Um, I believe

that's all unsubstantiated stuff, but

there's enough to it that I would say

you better wait and find out more about

this guy cuz it's not impossible. You

know, just almost anything that you're

sure you know about this story might be

wrong. you know, we're we're at that

point in the story where really there

could be really basic fundamental things

that we find out are just not true. So,

uh, as far as we can tell, he was a

far-left guy, but, uh, maybe not. We'll

see.

All right. Um, one of his friends from

high school says, you know, he's

definitely far left. And to me, that's

pretty convincing. I I feel like if if

his good high school friend said, "Oh,

yeah, he's he's way left." That's

probably dependable. That that seems

like a reasonably

strong statement. It's it's unlikely

that he went from high school far left

to a few years later far right. You

know, that doesn't seem likely.

All right. So, as you know, we're in

sort of a contest to blame whatever you

think is the other side. So, of course,

conservatives are blaming the left for

the um all the the dangerous talk that

looks like it may have encouraged people

to get violent. And of course, the left

the the left is arguing that Trump's

rhetoric is the the root cause.

Unbelievable.

Yeah. You know,

uh we always joke about the uh the

Democrats projecting like like if they

murder you, they will accuse you of

murder as they're stabbing you, right?

How many times have we seen that

example? as they're stabbing you. Stop

murdering me. Stop it. You're murdering

me. Stop it. And

you know, we're I'm just in a different

movie, so all I see is them murdering

us. Uh but they're apparently I don't

know if they believe their own movie.

What do you think? Do you think the

hosts of MMS NBC believe

that Trump is really the root cause here

and that they're not? and that they

believe they're not. Do you believe they

believe that?

It's possible because of a cognitive

dissonance. So, cognitive dissonance um

won't allow you to form an opinion of

yourself that's too negative if you're

if you have a healthy ego, if you're not

mentally ill.

So if you're perfectly normal, your

brain is working the way it should, it

will malfunction when you're presented

with a situation where uh you have

obviously done something stupid or evil

and you don't think you're stupid and

you don't think you're evil. That's what

triggers cognitive dissonance. When

there's a there's a disconnect between

what you're doing or experiencing and

what you believe to be true. And then

your brain spontaneously comes up with a

story that usually sounds ridiculous to

observers.

So here's the test. Did the MSNBo NBC

hosts are they experiencing the

situation in which there's strong

indication that they are the bad guys?

What do you think? H have they created

are they in a situation where it's

becoming somewhat obvious that they're

the bad guys and that they might be

stupid and they might be evil. Would you

agree that that's

sort of becoming obvious now? What would

smart people with normal brains, no, you

don't need any mental illness, just a

normal brain, what would they do in that

situation? Well, they would hallucinate

that the real problem is something else

so that they're off the hook. And so

they and they they snapped the grid on

uh on Trump. It's like uh why do you

have a bunion on your toe? Trump. Trump.

Why does it look like it's going to rain

today? Trump.

So you've got this little Trump reflex

that they've developed because

everything's Trump's fault.

But the tell the way you can tell it's

cognitive dissonance as opposed to just

a different opinion is that the people

who are not experiencing the cognitive

dissonance look at it and they say um

are you drunk or I mean are you are you

in mushrooms or something? because your

opinion is so disconnected from any kind

of reality that surely you can tell

that you're completely on the wrong

page, but they act like they can't. And

that's cognitive dissonance. They're

they're probably not acting. They're

probably actually having an experience

in which their brain has calculated

somehow that they're innocent. So here's

the test. When they say that the reason

that that guy killed Charlie Kirk is

because of Trump's um rhetoric, does

that sound well? Maybe that could be

true. Is that how you think of it? And

even if his rhetoric is what caused

people to get worked up, what rhetoric

is that? Is it where he said, "I'm going

to protect you people in the United

States by sealing the border." Is that

the part? How about the part where he

said, "I'm going to reduce crime for all

you poor people, especially poor black

people living in DC and now Memphis." Is

that the part?

You know, what was the dangerous

rhetoric?

So, anyway, yeah, cognitive dissonance.

So,

and then of course we're all trying to

uh keep score and and we're the people

on the right are positive that the

political violence is almost but not

completely limited to the left, right?

How how many of you believe that to be

true? That the political violence is

largely not 100% but largely on the

left.

Well, I'm not even sure yet because

these stories are all a little uh you

know, the various stories all have a

little uh wrinkle to them. For example,

the guy who tried to kill Governor

Shapiro in Pennsylvania, he tried to

burn his house down and u probably

wanted to kill his family. That was

somebody who was mad about him being

pro-Israel or anti-Israel

being maybe too pro-Israel. Was that it?

But it was something about Israel. So it

wasn't even about left or right, you

know, because the left and the right are

kind of mixed on Israel. It wasn't even

that. So how do you score that one? Is

that the left or the right when it

really was a specific issue?

What about the guy who dressed as a

police officer and killed or shot two

different families, right? Uh that were

both in politics. So, it was a husband

and a wife and um but that was over I

think that was over a specific issue,

wasn't it? Was it over abortion or

something? But I'm not sure. Do you

count the ones where somebody is mad at

a specific issue like Israel or like

Ukraine or like abortion? Is that the

same as saying it's a leftist or is that

just somebody who's got this real, you

know, real issue with this one issue? I

don't know. But, uh, it feels like

the violence is coming from the left. I

don't I don't know if the people on the

right feel like it's coming from the

right. They might. They have different

news, so maybe they think that. I don't

know. But we we don't really have a if

if anybody's done it yet, I'd like to

see it, but a really good accounting of,

you know, how much of this is from the

left versus the right. It it seems to

me, and let let me ask you this

question. I asked I asked my locals

subscribers earlier, but I'm going to

put it out to the rest of you. Who is

the first person

um in sort of the political talking head

world? Who's the first person you ever

heard say if the Democrats keep talking

about Hitler and fascists that it's

going to turn violent? Who's the first

person who told you that's going to

happen?

Might have been me. It might have been

me. And that would be informed my my

background in hypnosis.

If if the words

um start to converge in a certain way,

the words cause action. You know, words

words are thoughts

and thoughts become action. So,

um and then, uh Greg Guffeld

was saying it on the five and on his

show, Guffeld and he he has the bigger

platform. So, I he's the one who made it

a common thought.

But now it's the only thing we're

arguing about. It's the the number one

issue in the country is that that

rhetoric is causing uh violence. Now,

you remember when I told you that when

Trump back in 2015, I predicted that

Trump would change more than politics,

that he would change our very view of

reality. This is one of those times.

Once you understand that uh words words

are the basis of your brain you know we

think in words that if you change the

words you change the thinking that's why

people are always arguing use my

definition of the word I say it's a

genocide if if they can get you to

accept their word

then it changes your thinking. So words

change thinking. The way you think of it

is that you think and then you come up

with the words to describe what you

think. Not the case.

We're we're a lot like AI and large

language models. The words come first.

If you if your brain has a certain set

of words in it that it that it accesses

you more easily or first, that's where

your thinking is going to end up. It'll

end up where your words are.

So that's a hypnotist take. So yes, this

rhetoric is absolutely lethal.

Um

let's see.

Yeah, MSNBC is is going all in on this

Trump's fault.

And then you've got uh Jasmine Crockett,

Democrat Jasmine Crockett. She falsely

claimed I guess she was on the Breakfast

Club maybe yesterday and uh she says

that both attempted Trump assassins were

registered Republicans and had not voted

Democrat.

Now that is completely made up. That's

not true. How in the world did she

imagine that the attempted assassins

were Republicans?

So, I believe um I think she got fact

checked on that. I I think Charlemagne

may have fact checked her on that. Um

then she she doubled down on calling

Trump a quote wannabe Hiller. She said

it again. She said it yesterday while

Charlie Kirk is in a box. He's not even

in the ground yet. And she decided that

that was all right. I'll say that again.

Um,

and she she's she argues

that uh calling Trump a you know a Nazi

Hitler kind of guy is is no worse with

then when Trump said I could shoot

someone on Fifth Avenue and get away

with it.

Everybody who heard him say that knew

that he was making a hyperbole kind of

an, you know, uh, statement. Not a

single person said, "Hey, I've got an

idea. Why don't we shoot people on Fifth

Avenue because our leader thinks he can

do it, so why don't we do it? Let's go

shoot some people on Fifth Avenue." No.

Not a single person in the whole world

thought that. That was a call to

violence. And listening to Jasmine

Crockett, the stupidest person in the

Democrat party, I do think she might be

the dumbest person in the in the entire

party.

Um

but at least uh Charlemagne

Deod who is the host of the Breakfast

Club um he admitted on the show where

Jasmine was that uh he has engaged in

rhetoric um that could be determined as

inciting violence against Trump. He he

said I think we all incite whether we

think we do or not. And what I mean by

that is I've definitely called that

regime fascist.

Um, and he said if you hear somebody

call him Hitler, if there's somebody

that thinks, "Oh, Hitler." And then they

look at a lot of actions that are going

on, they're like, "Well, let's prevent

this before million people get killed."

So, I can understand how it all incites

violence.

Good for you. I have to say I have uh,

you know, continuous mixed feelings

about Charlemagne, the god. certainly

agree with uh some of his takes and I

appreciate that he's taking the the both

obvious and the honest take that there

is something about our language that

probably causes some action we don't

want and that a lot of people are

involved and he's he's admitting that he

is too so I don't know if he'll stop

doing it

he he came close to almost

sort forgiving that kind of stuff

because everybody does it. He didn't say

that, but it sort of bumped into that

thought.

Let's see. Uh

I I've also noticed that the people who

are most angry about Charlie Kirk have a

belief that he was a completely

different person. Completely different

person. I've I've heard somebody raging

about how he was racist against blacks.

Now, I don't know every single thing

that Charlie Kirk ever said, but I would

still be willing to bet a large amount

of money that he's never, not even once,

said something that anybody could

construe as racist against blacks. I'll

bet nothing. I'll bet not once. How

about even I'll bet he never even

brushed against it. It's completely

opposite his Christian identity. And he

and he would be way too smart to do it

accidentally. He was way too good. So

now, where in the world does that even

come from? Where does that come from? I

mean, do people just make up and

other people say, "Well, I've never

heard him talk, but my friend Bob says

he's this terrible person." So, this is

again, you know, the two movies on one

screen that I always talk about. How in

the world

would they have that opinion about him?

I I'm completely baffled.

Well, Chris Cuomo um was uh criticizing

Elon Musk and he said, quote, "I know

there's power in playing the victim, but

Elon Musk is the one saying that the

left is the party of murder." So, that's

what Elon said the other day. The left

is the party of murder.

and and and he he acts like that is

pushing extremism. To which I say,

is he really saying that Elon Musk

should stop complaining about the left

trying to kill him? Do you know how much

security that guy needs? Can you imagine

the number of death threats that Elon

Musk has gotten? All from the left. So

when he says that the left is the party

of murder, yeah, there's some hyperbole

in that obviously, but

to to to imagine that Elon Musk is the

problem. He's literally the the victim

of all kinds of death threats and

entirely from the left, I would guess.

You know, if if it's not 100%, it's

probably 99%.

So, I think uh Chris Cuomo missed the

mark on that complaint because the

problem is not the person complaining

about getting murdered.

That's not the problem. Oh my god. Yeah,

Charlie Kirk got murdered, but the real

problem is the people complaining about

it.

What?

What? The real problem is the

complaining about the murder.

I think the real problem is the murder.

There's a uh it's reminding me of a Nor

McDonald joke. You've probably all heard

it by now when he he talks about uh Bill

Cosby. He goes, "You know, some people

say the worst part about the Bill Cosby

situation is the hypocrisy."

And then he pauses for a fact and goes,

"I don't think it's the hypocrisy. I

think the worst problem is the rape.

And it feels like that. It's like, no,

the worst problem is not the

complaining.

It's not the complaining. It's the

murder. It's the murder.

Um, then here's another example. The

account media lies spotted this. So, the

Tennessee House Representative uh Justin

Pearson, he was on MSNBC,

uh just recently, and

here are some of the things he said

after

Charlie Kirk's murder. So, wouldn't you

think people would tone it down after he

gets murdered? Well, some of the things

he said was Trump's an authoritarian

dictator. the the cities that he's

sending the National Guard into will be

quote occupied by the military. Yeah,

he's a white supremacist.

Um he called federal assistance for law

enforcement terrorism. We have to fight

back against it. These are not benign

acts and black people are being used as

pawns.

Now, does that sound like somebody who's

trying to get a solution to any

problems?

No.

that that is not somebody who's trying

to solve a problem. I don't know what

that is, but it's not a problem solver.

And when asked about what the problem

is, um, Representative Pearson said that

uh instead of more policing, what they

need is uh things to battle poverty,

resources basically to battle poverty.

Because if you battled poverty and you

improved the schools, you would have

less violence.

Well, he's a stupid idiot because if you

don't solve crime, you don't get any of

that other stuff there. There's there's

no such thing as far as I know.

I've never heard of any high crime area

that solve their crime by uh helping the

poor. Have you? I've never heard of

that. As far as I know, that's a

completely impossible thing. However, I

have heard of cities such as New York

City under Giuliani

where they they beat back the crime and

then the economy prospered and

presumably people did better in general.

So, there are examples where battling

crime first can get you to a place where

you have at least the opportunity to

work on whatever you think are the other

problems. But if you don't do crime

first, you're not going to have a a base

of business. You're not going to have a

tax base. You won't have money to, you

know, improve your schools from the tax

base. Um, this guy's an idiot.

This is not a difference of opinion.

This is a idiot. And he's

elected. He's in charge.

All right.

Um,

and I guess on MSNBC, Peter Baker, he

said that the people who were calling

the left radical and lunatics are the

ones ratcheting up the political

rhetoric.

Yeah. Um, do you think any Republicans

are going to get a gun and murder

somebody because they've heard the words

radical and lunatic?

Do you think that's likely?

Where where do these people come from?

They have the worst takes. Well, Bill

Maher was on Friday night, his normal

show, and he had some things to say. He

uh he did helpfully tell his audience,

and they got really quiet, that Trump is

not Hitler, you

He He was very forceful about Trump is

not Hitler. So, you're not really

helping yourself if that's where you're

going with your narrative. Um, and then

he then he said, uh, I'm paraphrasing

that a little bit, but but he said

directly, Trump is not Hitler.

So, thank you for that. That helps a

lot. Um, and he said that the people who

mocked Charlie Kirk's death or tried to

justify it, he says, "I think you're

gross. I have no use for you." So, that

was the right take. agree with that. So,

I think he's on the the right side of

this. He's a free speech guy, so that

makes sense. Um, but I wonder I I didn't

hear him acknowledge like Charlemagne

the God did that he might have been part

of the problem. Did Bill Maher ever

accuse Trump of being a fascist or

trying to steal democracy?

Because I think he might have.

I think he might have. Uh, but I'd

rather I'd rather be happy that he said

Trump is not Hiller and happy that uh um

he he he's not happy with the people who

celebrated it. So, that's something. But

I feel like

I feel like he needs to kind of come

clean that he may have used some of the

words. I mean, he's not to blame. Yeah.

I'm not going to say he's to blame, but

collectively,

don't they think they don't you think

they all knew the risk? You know, you've

heard the phrase stocatic stic um

terrorism. The idea that you just use

words to condemn somebody to the point

where somebody says, "Man, I'm going to

have to take care of this." And they

they get violent.

So, it feels like the Democrats knew on

some level that they were putting

Republicans in mortal danger, but they

were okay with it because they wouldn't

personally be blamed. Oh, I'm just one

person who said a few words. You know,

if there were hundreds and hundreds of

people on TV saying a few words, well,

you can't put me in jail for that.

So,

David Axelrod,

famed uh Democrat consultant sort of

guy, he torched the Democrats over a few

uh what he calls the mistakes. He said

it was insane to spend three years

before he did something serious about

the border. Insane.

And then he also said it was wrong not

to be much more active in trying to

reopen schools.

All right. Um,

does it uh does it strike you as odd

that these two problems that every

Republican understood were gigantic

problems that the Democrats had to wait

uh what a year after they were out of

office to even admit that? Oh yeah, this

was like insane. Just insane.

Did he not know that at the time?

I I think he did. I think he did know

that was insane, at least the border

part.

Um,

and then Axel Rod is complaining about

the Republicans who may have used the

word war recently, as in uh, you know,

we're in a war with the other side. And

he said, the words have specific

meaning. When you say you're in a war,

it's an invitation for people to commit

acts of violence. And it didn't take

long for social media and western

lensmen caught this on X. Um there's a

clip of Chris Murphy, prominent

Democrat, who was saying, you know, I

think the day before Charlie Kirk was

killed, he said, "We're in a war to save

the country. You have to be willing to

do whatever is necessary." Now if you

say the context is a war and then you

say you have to do whatever is necessary

that does allow killing that would be

whatever is necessary to some people not

to me obviously

um so Axelrod um

I would sort of partially agree that war

is a it's a fighting word but

when I see uh when I see Republicans

talk that Okay. Um, I know that they

don't mean it literally,

but when Democrats talk about Trump

being a, you know, the next

authoritarian Hitler, they mean it

literally. Yeah. I mean, not that he's

going to have a little mustache and

change his name to Hitler, but that he

would act like that. I believe they mean

that literally. I I've never heard any

I've never heard any Republican who

would believe that we're in a literal

war as opposed to a political one.

Anyway,

Trump has ordered the uh State

Department to expand their screening to

uh disallow people who are trying to get

into the country on visas uh to disallow

them if they've said bad things

um about the assassination of Charlie

Kirk. And I guess they're using AI to

search for things that they might have

said. Now, I'm happy about that.

Yeah, I I feel like uh you don't get to

come in the front door and and be our

guest.

Uh unless you're saying good things, at

least on day one. I mean, you know, you

shouldn't have a history of criticizing

the country and then trying to get into

it.

So, I'm all right with that. I don't

know if that will pass any legal muster,

but I'm definitely okay with it.

Well, Andrew Tate, who sometimes has

gone quiet, but now he's re-emerging. He

was on Pierce Morgan Uncensored, and uh

he says one of the problems, the big

problems in the country is uh uh women

voting.

And he says, "Who votes for liberalism?

Who votes for soft on crime? Who votes

for open borders? Who votes for DEI by

and large? Male or female? Which sexes?

female.

So he he says, "Why was this woman, you

know, the Ukrainian woman who got

stabbed on the light rail train?" He

says, "Why is this woman going to work

and riding the tram uh alone at night

instead of thinking this is dangerous?"

She believed that she can go and fend

for herself. Bad things happen when we

ignore reality. Society was built by

evil, misogynistic men.

I love the honesty of that. And then

these feminists came along and destroyed

it all. I believe in protecting women

because I don't believe they can fight.

And he says, "If that makes me a

misogynist, so be it." Well, now, of

course, Andrew Tate uh is brilliant at

being the most provocative on whatever

the topic is. So, this again is is more

of that. He's very good at this

communication thing, if you haven't

noticed. Um but I'll I'll give you my

take. I also believe

that uh women are did not evolve for

defense

protection defense to be their top

priority sort of biologically designed

to to do it. Men did you know men are

designed for violence. We're designed to

protect what we love and kill what we

don't and kill what we need to eat. And

so I just ask you this, male or female,

let's say you've got a date, one of you

is male, one of you is female. You go

into a restaurant. Which one of you

knows where the exits are?

Which one of you plans just

automatically, reflexively what would

happen if a if an armed person came in

and shooting in the restaurant? Like

what would be the first thing you do?

Men do that. We are designed, we're

trained from birth, I think, uh to be

defenseoriented.

So if you're talking about uh what

should we do about the border of the

country, you don't want women involved

in that.

If you do, you're going to get an open

border because women are trained,

designed, evolved to put empathy first.

Now, before you call me a misogynist,

uh, let me be clear. I do think that a

woman could be, you know, the president

and the best protector of the border.

You remember Hillary was pretty hard ass

about the border before, you know,

before she lied and said she wasn't. Um,

so yeah, you could get Margaret

Thatcher. Um, you know, I I could

probably name half a dozen women um who

who would be, you know, perfectly strong

on all the things, strong on crime,

strong on the border. So, it's not about

individuals,

right? It's about averages.

And the average applies to voting, but

it doesn't apply to any one person who

wanted to be extraordinary at one job.

So any job is fine if they, you know, if

they're qualified for the job. But as

soon as you go with averages, it's like,

all right, everybody vote, men and

women, everybody vote. you're gonna get

the male vote, which would protect you

from violence, watered down

by the average of women are like, "Oh,

we don't want to treat people badly. Let

them in."

So, I won't go as far as Andrew Tate

did, but I will say uh and obviously

there's there's not really a practical

way that that uh women would lose the

vote. I I don't think that's serious.

But he makes the point that if you're

looking for the source of the problem,

that's it. That's it. I'm pretty sure

that if only men voted, we would have a

very different looking world. You know,

maybe in some ways it'd be worse, but in

in ways that uh matter a lot to us, I'm

pretty sure it would be better. You

know, we we never would have opened the

border, for example. That never would

have happened, I don't think.

Well, Comcast um who owns MSNBC issued a

public apology. Uh you already know the

story. One of their one of their

commentators got fired for um

kind of suggesting that maybe Charlie

Kirk's narrative got him killed.

And you know, they say they'll do

better, etc. But I don't know. I don't

know if their apology means anything

because then they put the same bunch of

lying idiots on the air to make the same

claims that uh Trump's the one to blame

for the uh the violence. They all need

to be fired if you're going to be taken

seriously. And if you're not going to be

if you're not going to fire the liars

and the morons uh who are making

everything worse and they're basically

triggering killers in my opinion. Uh if

you're not going to do something real

about that, don't give us your little

press release about that what guy you

didn't care about anyway who didn't have

his own show. They didn't care about

him. They might have even wanted to get

rid of him. Maybe he wasn't that good

anyway. So they lost nothing and they

just went right back to saying things

that'll get Republicans killed.

So no respect whatsoever for MSNBC or

their management.

All right. Um I guess the House

Oversight Committee, James Comr's

committee has uh requested Epstein's

financial records from the Treasury. It

looks like they'll get them. To which I

say,

really?

We're we're just now going to look at

his financial records. Has anybody

looked at him? Have his financial

records been thoroughly examined by some

police entity in pri prior cases, you

know, prior situation.

um

or would the uh Treasury Department have

to start from scratch and say, "Ah,

nobody nobody's looked into this, but

you know, we'll we'll spend a month

trying to put it together." Um well,

maybe we'll find out everything because

or maybe we don't we won't because

allegedly Epstein was an expert at

laundering money. So, if we see all the

official and legal ways that he moved

money around, it might not tell us

anything, but I'd love to see the dollar

amounts, wouldn't you? Wouldn't you like

to see if suddenly, I don't know, $50

million came into his account one day

and there's no explanation for it? I

don't know. And I don't know how much of

his money would have been, let's say, in

Swiss accounts or something like that. I

don't know if we can penetrate them

these days.

So, we might not find out anything.

Well, did you know that one of the ways

to get rid of all those microlastics

from the water? Um, scientists found out

that you could put uh extracts from okra

and fenugreek, some kind of plant-based

thing, um, and tamarind. And what it

does is it sticks the plastic and makes

it heavy enough to sink to the bottom.

So they can get rid of 90% of

microplastics just by putting these

natural

goo they call it into the water. Now,

this is one of

uh several scientific breakthroughs I've

told you about recently that all deal

with microplastics.

And I think microplastics will be

another one of those Adam's law of

slowmoving disaster situations where it

looked like uh are we going to all die

from eating plastic because it's in

everything and we can't get it out?

Well,

it looks like we had enough time for the

smart people to figure out some

solutions. They don't have the solutions

yet, but they're definitely knocking on

the door with a number of different

technologies.

Well, as you know, Trump said he's going

to deploy the National Guard to Memphis

next

um because they have a very high crime.

I think they're the highest crime in the

country. They have a Democrat mayor, but

the Democrat mayor has uh allowed them

to come in, but he's trying to have it

both ways. He he he's trying to

basically criticize Trump while while

accepting his help.

So, he's really he's really walking a

fine line here. Um what did he say? Uh

he said uh there are a lot of citizens

in our community that are scared uh said

Mayor Young about the National Guard

coming in and he says he doesn't think

sending troops will bring down crime but

he welcomes the help.

What an idiot

there. There are so many Democrats who

you can't even say well you know I have

a slightly different opinion. That's not

about opinion. This is just a

idiot. I mean, it's hard to it's hard to

say anything except, "Oh, oh, oh, you're

an idiot." Oh, okay. That's all we need

to know. There's no point in discussing

because you're not going to change the

mind of an idiot. But he thinks that

sending the truth will not bring down

crime. After he watched Washington DC,

he thinks it won't bring down crime.

Well, at least temporarily it will. I

don't know what happens in the long run.

Um

he says these citizens are scared

really they're going to be scared of the

National Guard who won't be arresting

anybody. They'll just be sort of a

resource and you know being a a presence

and they're more they're more afraid of

the people who are stopping crime

than the crime. So, you'd rather take

your chance with a murderer

than a National Guard member? Is that

what your citizens would prefer? You

idiot. You just You absolute

idiot. Now, I've said this

before, but I think all local uh

governments are criminal organizations.

I think they're all just finding ways to

move money around. By the way,

when the founders of the country

designed our form of government, there

wasn't that much money moving around,

was there? If you were a mayor, it

wasn't like, oh, we've got these giant

contracts for, you know, building the

new thing. We're building the new town

center. We're building, I don't know,

fixing the highways in town or whatever

we're doing.

If you didn't have a ton of money

flowing through the city, well, maybe

maybe the people you elect would just do

the job of taking care of the city. But

the moment the the dollar amounts go

through the roof, which would be the

current situation, you know, anything

you did in a city would be ridiculously

expensive, and then you let those same

politicians decide where the where the

money goes, you know, which vendors do

the work. you are guaranteed

guaranteed to create a criminal

organization around siphoning off some

of that money just because there's so

much of it. So I would argue that the

founders who brilliantly created a great

system and constitution

that if they had known how much money

was going to be flowing through the

cities eventually they would not have

designed it the way they did.

there's a part missing the the audit,

you know. Now, obviously anything can be

audited if people want to, but it needs

to be a permanent part of the system.

You've got to have something where the

auditors change out often so they don't

get corrupted or owned by the, you know,

the people they're trying to audit. Um,

and I don't know exactly what the system

would be, but there needs to be gigantic

transparency about where every dollar

goes and we should all be able to easily

look at it and we should look at, oh, it

went to this vendor. Does this vendor

have any connection, family or best

friends or anything with the people who

made the decision? Well, then you could

maybe drive crime out of and

governments. But at the moment, I just

assume that any mayor of a big city is a

criminal. How many of you assume that? I

assume that every mayor of every big

city is a criminal and that maybe that's

what attracts him to the job.

I don't know. There might be some

exceptions, but my but my assumption

every time I see one is like, why would

you even have that job? Who would want

that job? Who would have so much skill

that they could be a mayor

and that that was their best career

opportunity?

Criminals. Criminals. Uh so I believe it

ends up being all criminals in local

government.

Anyway, so we'll see what happens in

Memphis.

True. Um,

so if you're wondering, 63% of Memphis

is black.

43% in Washington DC is black. Now, the

mayor said that the the base problem is

poverty.

Um, and as I've explained, you can't

work on the poverty until you work on

the crime.

Um, so there you go.

So, uh, Elon Musk and JD Vance are

agreeing with each other on on acts

that, uh, you could do a lot about crime

if you just put in jail forever the few

people who commit all the crimes. Now,

you're probably aware that they're just

individuals who can do hundreds of

crimes and even be caught hundreds of

times and released to do hundreds of

more. So if you don't put them in jail

forever, your crime rate probably never

goes down because they don't stop doing

crimes and they're not going anywhere.

So if you don't lock them up forever,

there's no really hope of crime ever

going down. It's it would be impossible.

Uh but if you lock up the most dangerous

people who are doing probably I don't

know what the ratio is but 80% of the

crime probably

maybe 5% of the criminals are doing 80%

of the crime and we know who they are

because we keep catching them. It's not

like they're even hard to catch. They've

been caught maybe dozens of times

already but they're just let go. So JD

and Elon agree on that and I feel like

that would be a way better approach than

the National Guard. The National Guard

is not a bad idea. It brings attention

to things and maybe calms things down

temporarily, but doesn't seem like a

permanent. I don't think it's a

permanent fix. But jailing the people

who do all the crimes, that would be

permanent. Now, if you wanted to get

clever and say, "Hey, it's too evil to

put people in jail for life because they

uh let's say they shoplifted three times

in a row or something like that." I

don't know if that would be enough to be

life in prison. But I feel like some

people just need to be, you know, sent

to the island where they can live with

the other crooks and they're just not

near people who are not crooks and maybe

keep them there forever. But it doesn't

have to be in a jail cell. You know, you

can let them just wander around and

eat cheap food and grow their own or,

you know, they could survive. It's just

you just can't let them with other

people.

All right. Get the f away from those

prisoners, from the uh from the

criminals, I say.

Um, Missouri passed a uh Trump approved

redistricting plan which would give them

one more Republican House seat probably

the AP's reporting. So that's pick up a

one and uh remember the House is really

close so one C could be the difference

between a majority and not having

majority for the Republicans. Well, we

know now that John Bolton's personal

email account, he was using a nonsecure

personal email for some stuff he's being

accused of, uh, was hacked by a foreign

entity. New York Post is reporting. Now,

I don't know what foreign entity it was

that's not being reported. Um,

but how do you feel knowing that he was

using his personal email

for some things that may have been

classified? At least that's an

allegation. And uh that foreign entities

had hacked it.

Well,

that's bad.

That's bad.

Um, Trump is calling for a 50 to 100%

tariff on uh, China by NATO countries.

So, he's not talking about just the US.

He's talking about NATO countries.

Apparently, the NATO countries are still

buying a lot of oil. I don't know which

ones are buying the most, but so NATO is

fighting a war or supporting Ukraine,

fighting a war against Russia while

funding the war for Russia by buying

their oil. Now, I don't know what

options they have. Could it be that

there's just not physically enough oil

that you can get there to replace it or

it's way too expensive? But even

expensive doesn't expensive doesn't seem

to be a good enough reason, you know, in

a war scenario.

Anyway, so Trump says that NATO's

commitment to win has been less than

100%.

Now, I don't know if he's going to get

away with this, but he wants to go major

sanctions on Russia and major sanctions

on China for buying oil from Russia.

Do you think that'll pan out? Do you

think first of all he'll get these uh

tariffs that the European Union will do

it? And then secondly, do you think it

would work? You know, do you think it

would make any difference? Because

anything short of crashing Russia's

economy isn't going to work. And even

that is fraught with danger.

So, but it does look like Trump is

serious about

taking down the Russian economy.

Well, Manny, the the kami, who is

running for mayor and probably will get

elected in New York City, um he vowed to

arrest Netanyahu

um if he ever got a chance, if he ever

came to the city. Now, the reason he

would arrest him is that what is it? the

uh international criminal court which

the America is not a party to so we're

not bound by it but it it issued an

arrest warrant for Netanyahu I think

they're alleging him war crimes against

humanity in Gaza and uh mom Donnie says

he would push to get him arrested now it

doesn't look like that's within the

power of a mayor

so I don't know what he would do to get

him arrested I know encourage the police

to do it. He couldn't order them to do

it. He wouldn't have the authority. But

I don't know. But he's making that

promise. Now, does that seem like a good

idea to you? Well, um, apparently his

pro Palestinian stance drove 62% of the

primary voters to the the polls. So,

Mammi has a very big anti-Israel

support base. But I'll tell you, if you

had told me that New York City would be

electing a mayor who seems somewhat

obviously anti-Israel,

I would have said, "No, no, that can't

happen." Has anybody told you the size

of the Jewish um citizens of New York

City? I mean, there's so many of them

that there's no way you can elect some

anti-Semitic guy.

Well, I guess I was not aware how many

pro Palestinians there are in New York

City because it looks like it looks like

that's going to happen. Now, I would not

have predicted that in a million years.

Anyway,

um but it'll be a good test of Israel's

influence. You know how uh there are

many Americans who say Israel really

runs the United States when it comes to

Israel and Middle East policy. Not not

everything but uh when it comes to what

we do in the Middle East and wars and

stuff like that uh in the Middle East uh

people say Israel is controlling our

government and there's you know a

reasonable argument for that. Apac is

very successful and uh blah blah blah.

Um

but it but this will be a good test. If

Mamami can get elected in New York City,

you're going to have to wonder just how

powerful is the Israeli lobby in the

United States because I feel as if

you know Israel would want to try as

hard as possible to influence events so

that that guy didn't get elected.

But what happens if they don't have any

impact?

Would you be willing to reassess your

belief that Israel is controlling the

government of the United States? Because

there's no way they'd be in favor of

that. Mom dami getting elected. And

so keep an eye on that. You know,

anything could happen.

Well, according to interesting

engineering, there's a uh new, or at

least I never heard of it, method for

storing energy where they freeze air so

cold that it turns liquid and it's much

smaller. Um, takes up much less room

when it becomes liquid and then they

store it overnight. So, they they cool

the air when the electricity is

plentiful and cheap. And then when they

need to release it, they've got some

kind of device where when they warm it

up a little bit, the the super frozen

air which had become liquid changes from

liquid to air again and then it expands

greatly and the expansion drives some

turbines and it drives a generator. So

apparently uh Korea says they're South

Korea says they're close to being able

to build that. They've got a prototype

All right. Um, I guess there are other

countries they're they're pursuing it,

too. So, that's all I had for you today.

Remember that Owen Gregorian will be

running his spaces event right after I'm

done. I'm going to say a few words

privately to the local subscribers and

then uh Owen will be firing up his

spaces event on X if you want to follow

up on anything that we said today.

All right. Um,

locals, I'm going to come at you

privately in 30 seconds. The rest of

you, thanks for joining. I appreciate

it. I hope you come back tomorrow. We'll

do it again.
