n reasonable security and/or a reasonable election or an election that looked reasonable. The only thing we know is it looked rigged. We don't know that it was. So I don't know. I wouldn't obsess about that. I would concentrate on the security part. And I want to ask you a question. Have I ever gone too far in talking about the FBI involvement in the January 6 crowds? Because my memory of it is t…

. You must be watching right now. The Duke lacrosse lady finally admitted she was lying. That's like a really old story where there's a woman who accused Duke lacrosse players of horrible behavior. Here Fetterman a piece of trash you say. Too weak to be president. He's just good at politics.

All right ladies and gentlemen that's my Friday show for today. I think I hit all the big topics but I'm also feeling like I missed something. A lot of people talking about that I don't even want to talk about it. All right. Boy the Grok does good pictures of me now. The man cave it doesn't have a set time but usually the man cave is somewhere in the 4:30 to 5:30 range to start. Biden pardoned a pedo judge. Well so I decided to not talk about the people who got pardoned the specific crimes because the entire point of the presidential pardons is that you and I think they should still be in jail. Now they have their reasons and they don't have to give them. What I worry about is that pardons are money laundering bribery situations where somebody goes to a politician and says you know my brother-in-law's cousin has been in jail for drugs. I'd be making a really large contribution to your campaign if he got pardoned. So I suspect that the mysterious pardons are all personal favors and or have a financial element to them. Imagine if somebody went to Hunter and said Hunter I'll invest $100 million in your investment fund. He doesn't have one but if he did. If my cousin's brother gets pardoned. How would we ever know why that guy got pardoned? We'd never know and there wouldn't be anything written down. It'd just be a verbal promise. So I suspect that the pardons are a completely corrupt process.

But I called you anti-Semitic. Yeah okay I don't care. Anyway you get the point. Sounds like avoiding the pirates off of Africa now was a question not a guess. All right I don't know what you're talking about. Let's see. Would Iran want to test their nuke before announcing they have one? You can't really test one without people finding out. Janet Yellen said she was sorry over presiding over a $15 trillion debt. Sorry oops. Americans are sicker for longer. You know the reason I didn't do that story is I don't trust the data. I saw in the comments somebody said so there's a story that Americans stay sicker longer than other countries but I feel like there's context missing. Number one if you're in some poor country maybe you complain less or maybe you die from the thing whereas the American stays treated longer. I just don't trust the data on that one.

Look for people who are not charged on January 6 and you can figure out what the assets are. That seems like a good idea. China banning exports of raw materials the rare earth. Okay we talked about that one yesterday. It's apples. That's what I think are the psyop people in the US. Study older. I don't know about that. But it's a good question. I just thought I didn't trust the data for and I could think of half a dozen reasons why. This guy reflects poorly on group please cancel. Why because he's being anti-Semitic. Was that somebody saying that we'd be better off if somebody nuked Israel? Is that what somebody said? Yeah that's not acceptable behavior. But Mike B is in a special category. So Mike Bur is the official jester. So pretty much everything that Mike Bur does is inappropriate and would get you canceled everywhere else but he has special access because I like seeing the inappropriate stuff. As long as you keep it in context. If you're laughing at it because it's inappropriate that's fine. As long as we keep it to its little domain. So we've got one official jester who can get away with more than the rest of you. So don't compare them to the other people. He is specifically allowed to be deeply inappropriate. Like really inappropriate. So but even he has limits. Mike Bur has some limits too. We don't go too far but he tickles the edges of what's appropriate let's say that. The All-In podcast was pro-Trump at least attempt humor. The stock for Beyond Meat. I guess that didn't work so well.

All right what else are we complaining about? I think we're all happy now. All right. Free speech tester kind of. All right ladies and gentlemen I'm going to go do some other stuff. It's great spending time with you. I'm going to talk to the Locals people privately if my system works. But if you're on YouTube or Rumble or X thanks for joining. I'll see you tomorrow same time same place.
