s the kids'. There's nothing about it that's done right. I mean in fact every part of school would be different if you started today and built it from scratch. It'd all be different. It's just bullying and you have low self-esteem and it's just a horror fest for most kids.

When I see kids go to school I feel sorry for them and not in a way that I did when I was going to school. I never felt sorry for myself, did you? I don't know. I mean maybe it's a generation thing. You could like school or not like school but I never really felt sorry for myself. But when I see a modern child go to school I think they're just going into the grinder. It's like a mental health destruction grinder. And you like—the state makes you send them there. We're gonna take your child, that's right, sorry. We're gonna take your child and we're gonna put them every day into a situation that is really up and they will be mentally scarred probably for life. Probably for life. Their self-esteem will be in the toilet. They'll have no value in themselves. And that's what we'll do for you and then we'll give them back. You see what you can do with them. And you know, so that's what it feels like. It feels like that. I think we could do better.

All right. Here's something that I forgot or didn't know, I can't remember. But Maggie Haberman tweeted—this is not the part I forgot, I'll get to that—that officials with security clearances were sending internet conspiracy theories to senior officials asking them to investigate. I think she's talking about the Trump administration. And then Mollie Hemingway retweeted that with her own comment and said that Maggie Haberman won a Pulitzer for her role successfully propagating the Russia collusion hoax in which officials with security clearances sent the Democrat-manufactured hoax to senior officials across the government in an attempt to orchestrate a coup.

Yeah. And how many of you knew that Maggie Haberman won a Pulitzer for writing about something that wasn't even slightly true? Did you all know that? Somehow I feel like I missed that story when it happened because I think I would have remembered it. Did I ever tell you what it takes to win a Pulitzer? You know I always thought it's a very prestigious thing to win and cartoonists can win them. There are several cartoonists, lots of them actually, who have won Pulitzers. So I always thought that would be the pinnacle of my career if I could win a Pulitzer. I would suddenly go from idiot making jokes to some kind of a credible person. You know, sort of a Garry Trudeau situation. But they never take that away from you, right? It's very prestigious. Or I thought it was until I talked to somebody who knew how it works.

Do you know what it takes? Do you know what the process is? There's a small group of people who are selected as judges and then if people submit books—so it's not everything that gets created that year. You have to actually apply. Most people don't. So a few people will apply, a small percentage. And then a group of people will read the books and tell you which ones they like. It's basically a book club. It's just a book club of some people who like reading books and then they pick one that they liked better. It literally has no more meaning or depth than your neighborhood book club who read several books that year as a club and then at the end they pick one they liked. That's it. There's nothing to the Pulitz
