in high school. Now apparently he was bullied and he wasn't popular. But has anybody talked to his classmates and said, they say he had no social media. Is that true? His classmates would know if he had social media. Where's that? Now you don't necessarily want to put them on camera because they'd be, well they'd be twenty-two so that'd be fine. So if you had some twenty-year-old people who went t…
← Previous segment →ed? Can you imagine the situation? It's like Pence is ready to certify the election and then somebody says, wait we've got paperwork. And then Pence does whatever he does. But later do you imagine that the Democrats would get together later and they'd say, wow we were pretty sure we won this thing fair and square but I didn't see that they would have paperwork. They have paperwork people. They have paperwork. And then they say we better just give them the country. And then one of the Democrats would say, well couldn't we just do some fake paperwork and take it back? And the Democrats would be like, what's your name? You're a genius. And he'd say Bob. My name is Bob. I don't know if that would be his name but let's say this. I just kind of came up with it. Bob, that's just brilliant. They try to take over the country with paperwork but does anybody have paper? Anybody? You have paper? Bring some paper over here and bring a pen quick. We're going to take this country back. We resolve that the country comes back to us. And by the way does anybody want to be a senator as long as I'm doing some paperwork? Well we'll call you an alternate senator but that's probably good enough to take over the country. Alternate senator. Who wants to be the alternate president? Oh we have one of those. Alternate cabinet members? Anybody? Finally we have paperwork. We will take over this country with our paperwork. Seriously people, how was anybody going to take over the country with trespassing in one building and some paperwork?
But then, but then, hold on Scott, hold on Scott. It's like you don't even watch the news. I think I got rid of my Dale impression. Dale will be making a comeback if you don't know. Dale is the Democrat who looks a lot like me except he has a goatee and he says crazy things and he looks like this. Well Scott if it's not an insurrection how do you explain all the cops that were killed? There were no cops killed. I've got horses. Well maybe you should Google them. Never mind I think Google probably erased it. But how do you explain the lectern got moved? What's your point? The lectern, the lectern it got moved. And just complete that point about the lectern and therefore the insurrection almost succeeded because the lectern got moved. There was also graffiti. There was graffiti so they were trying to conquer the country with paperwork but also graffiti. You didn't see it. It was bad. It was bad graffiti. It was weaponized graffiti. Well so I just imagine it goes like that.
All right. If you don't like those two, so those are the two points. You can't conquer a country by trespassing and you can't conquer a country with paperwork. If that would work I think somebody would have tried it already. I would have tried it myself frankly. I think I would have made a run at conquering the country if I could do it with fake paperwork.
All right. And then here's my favorite one though. So one of the things we know from the communications of the day is that Don Jr. was trying to stop the protests and you know get the president to say hey stand down and everything. So we know very clearly that Don Jr. was not in on any plot to take over the country. And so I ask you this. Do you believe that Trump planned to take over the country and word never got to Don Jr.? Because you think at the very least somebody would have said, hey Don Jr. you better protect all of your children because if your father takes over the country they're in a lot of trouble and so is your old family and so are you. So you might want to beef up your security because you know we're going to take over the country. I feel like that would have been mentioned. It would have been mentioned to Don Jr. Like how dumb do you have to be to think that Don Jr. wouldn't be in on the plot? I mean if the plot were real of course he would. Of course he would.
Anyway then here's my other point. Have you ever met a Republican who would be okay with Trump or anyone else becoming a dictator? That's the opposite of being a Republican. It's right in the name. Well it's not right in the name but the whole point of being a Republican is you like the Constitution. There's no such thing as a Republican who also kind of wants a dictator as long as the dictator is a good one and on their side. That's not a thing. There are zero Republicans who would have been okay with some kind of a coup. Zero. I've never even heard it privately. I've never heard anybody whisper about it. I've never heard anybody say, you know it wasn't a coup but honestly if it had been I would have been all in. No, there's no Republican. Find me one Republican who would have ever had that point of view. It's not a thing.
Now let's compare the insurrection narrative to what I call the more rational explanation. Here's the rational explanation that you never see on the fake news. So if it wasn't an insurrection Scott what was it? If it wasn't an insurrection what was it? What was it Scott? What was it? Well maybe it was exactly what they said it was. Maybe if you simply asked all the people you believed were involved, what is it you were trying to accomplish? Maybe do that. Maybe just ask them, hey what was in your mind? What were you trying to do? Don't you think that matters? There were thousands of people there. Why not just ask them? Why were you there? What were you trying to accomplish? I've asked them. So on behalf of the news that didn't do its job let me tell you what they would say. They would say we thought the election looked sketchy and we wanted a little timeout to check to see if this problem was what we thought it was which was the election was stolen. So we were trying to protect the election. We were trying to protect the outcome and we're trying to protect the country, protect the Republic and make sure that all of us, all Americans got the result that they thought they voted for.
But what about those fake electors Scott? What about the fake electors? Well why don't we ask them what they intended to do? What they intended to do if you ask them is to preserve their legal challenge. Now did they do it right? A lot of people would say no. But does anybody doubt the intent? Does anybody have any question about the intention? No. The intention was to preserve their legal right. Now they thought that could lead to Trump staying in office but that would require of course that somebody looked into the election and found some problem with it which never happened.
All right. So if you don't like debunking that let's talk about debunking climate change which looks like it's going to fall any moment. Steve Milloy who's been debunking climate stuff forever, here's what he says. Now I'm going to say I don't know if his facts are the same as the official facts so you have to watch out if everybody's using the same sources of data and I don't know the answer to that. But here's what he says. That for the last nine years the temperature has on average gone down. And you therefore you would have to believe that over that time four hundred and fifty billion tons of CO2 got into the air between 2015 and 2023 and it didn't do what it was predicted to do. And then on top of that, so that's the first claim. So the first claim is that the temperatures didn't go up but the CO2 went up massively. And if you're only talking about one year or two years you'd say okay we didn't claim every single year was going to be a straight line up just the average would. But it would be pretty hard to argue that over an eight or nine year period that you didn't see any impact of climate change. None. At the period when it was the most CO2 not only in the air but the most added to the air. And in that entire time, in that entire time that I was just looking at a reframe that somebody had is pretty good. So in that entire time nothing went up.
Now remember the claim is that the temperatures do not show warming over that period. I'm pretty sure the climate change peo

ple would say it did. So they might be looking at different data. I don't, there's I have some questions there. But then there's also a Tonga volcano that erupted in 2022 which some say, this is in Zero Hedge, that accounted for basically all of the extra warmth. So you didn't debunk anything. Brian Snick died. Oh there's some, is there somebody here who doesn't know that Brian Snick, you know tha…
