arly on in this process that the bank isn't going to complain because the bank always does their own checking. No exceptions. You can't be a lender and sometimes take their word for it. That's not a thing. There is no loan ever, ever, anywhere in a traditional bank, ever, not once, where the lender said, you know what, you look like an honest guy, I'm going to take your word for that. Literally ne…

I would say at this point the weight of evidence suggests that we have a blackmail-based government and maybe other countries as well. Would you say that's a fair assessment of our current government? That it is a blackmail. Fundamentally that's the operating system of the government, is blackmail. Now it only makes sense because I've told you before I can't see any situation where any company, any country, whether it's the United States or somewhere else, if you have a highly functional intelligence group within your country, eventually they will take over the leadership. There's no way around it. They're trained to do it. They're the type of people who don't mind doing it. Somebody's going to take a run at it and somebody will eventually succeed through blackmail.
So if you're a group that knows how to use blackmail and has no moral qualms about any of it, eventually they're going to run the country. You just don't know if it happens on day one or day a thousand or day a million, but eventually there's no way it can go any other way. And I would say that the same is probably true for Russia and China probably. But do you know how I think they handle it in Russia and China? That as soon as they get blackmailed, somebody kills them. They just send somebody to kill them. Like even if you were the one who transmitted the message, like you sat in the room with Xi or Putin and said you know what, we found out some things about you, you'd be dead before you hit the hallway. And anybody who published it would be dead before they ate lunch.
So I think maybe in the totalitarian countries they can just murder people until they get it done. But I have this hypothesis that that would also cause China and Russia to have bad intelligence agencies. That on average they probably have to kill all their good people because the good people would take over the country if they didn't kill them first. So it's just a guess, but I bet the Dunning-Kruger incompetence level of the Russian and Chinese intelligence is off the chart. Because as soon as you got a good operator in there, the leader would have to kill him because otherwise that leader would kill them. You know, basically you can't let somebody capable be in charge of your intelligence or else it'll take over the country. Why wouldn't they? Yeah, most of you would if you had the chance.
So we know that Hoover was a blackmailer and why would it change? I can't imagine it would change. So I'm going to assume that the government is guilty and that the Epstein logs probably are protecting somebody and that it's exactly what it looks like. It's exactly what it looks like. That Epstein was a blackmailer for either our intel or maybe Israel's or somebody else's. Maybe he was probably working for more than one.
Anyway, there is a rampant speculation that if Trump is nominated he will pick Tucker Carlson for his VP. How many of you believe that? Do you believe that Trump would pick Tucke

r Carlson for his VP? I'm going to put the odds of that at zero. Yeah, everybody on Locals is saying no, zero. Because it would bring him more heat, not less. Tucker has his own set of historic huge group of critics. You don't bring that into your campaign. And Ben Carson is a ridiculous idea. Honestly, yeah there's no way he's going to pick Ben Carson. If he picks Ben Carson that's like giving up…
