ause you end up in the same place. You don't want people to be too happy. Yay. Now, well that's interesting. Yay just bought Parler so that's not gonna happen. Lex, he's busy.

All right, I'm going to throw out a name just for fun. You ready for this? Mike Cernovich. The whole world would explode. Every employee would quit. But he is one of the few people I would trust to be balanced. You know, I would actually trust Cernovich not to limit people's freedom of speech. And that's all you want. I mean that's all you want. You want somebody that you would trust to not limit somebody's freedom of speech. And then, you know, I'm sure the rest of the people could make it profitable and all that stuff. But you do need somebody you can trust on that one freedom of speech thing. And I couldn't immediately think of somebody else because everybody else is either so overtly political. And even though Cernovich is political, he's political in a whatever-makes-sense way, not in a I'm-a-Republican-to-death way. Nothing like that. Mark Cuban? Yeah, he's busy. Yeah, I don't think Mark Cuban wants the job. Yeah, interesting thought experiment. It'll be somebody you've never heard of probably.

So Fox News' Geraldo Rivera, he has an idea that George Floyd is the person most responsible for the failure of the Democratic Party. Not because of what George Floyd did specifically, but you know he became the focus of attention. And the focus on that, Geraldo wants to call as maybe the turning point. Now I don't know that I wouldn't go so far as to say it was the cause. I don't think George Floyd was a cause of things that happened not directly related to George Floyd. But on the other hand I do think it marks the beginning of the top. Don't you? It feels like the beginning of the absurdity started then. Where people had the best intentions. I think actually most people had good intentions one way or the other about George Floyd. They wanted the right answer. I think. I mean I felt like everybody just wanted the right answer in that one and they weren't quite sure what it would be. But because I do think it might have been a coincidental marker of the beginning of something that got worse.

Cat Abu, Twitter user, reports that also about Geraldo, noted that Geraldo mentioned that cops are quote besieged and under attack because more than 250 cops have been shot this year in the line of duty. Doesn't that seem like a lot? Like in my mind if you would ask me—and I guess it's a higher number than before—but if you ask me in the whole country of you know 350 million whatever we are now, how many cops are shot in the line of duty per year, what would you have guessed? Just if you didn't know the number, what would you? Oh you would have guessed a thousand? Some people say 150. Yeah I would have guessed 50 to 100, which is you know outrageous. But 250, that does sound like it's funny that we would even have any sense of when it's too high. How do I even have any idea what's the right number for that in a normal world? But somehow I still have that sense. I have this weird sense that it's too high. I mean one would be too high. But I don't know. It's weird that I have a sense of what's right without knowing what's standard. I'm comparing it to that. That just shows the limit
