ames who seems crooked is being looked into for her own crimes. On the other hand why did it take a Republican administration for this to happen? Doesn't it sort of suggest that the FBI is completely politicized and if the Republicans have the dominant control they can just pick a Republican leaning bunch of FBI people to do what they want and go after anybody they want. It's not better if the Rep…

world who could say that. And you just say all right.

Digital equity program. I guess Trump's posting about this. There was a digital equity program. Some racist program that's getting cut I guess.

All right. So everything that was in my reading today was leading up to the following point. Do you ever wonder how I as a non-scientist could be so darn confident that the climate models are BS? You ever wonder about that? It's like I'm not really an expert on climate models. I'm not even a scientist and I don't have any expertise in environment. Why am I so confident that the climate models are BS?

Well some of it is that I worked with prediction models in the finance area and I saw that as soon as you add a certain number of variables you can't predict anything. You can sort of just pick your assumptions to make it look anything you want. So that's part of it. But here's the real reason. The FBI is corrupt. The DOJ is probably corrupt. In 2020 there was a suspicious number of Biden votes that don't look real to me. I don't know for sure but they don't look real to me. The polls are often fake. Victor Davis Hanson explained that. The DOGE savings may be entirely fake or it may be that just if you're left-leaning media you could say they're fake and if you're right-leaning you say they're real. The tariff estimates that Trump has done seem ridiculous. The trade deals are being called fake and the budget process is completely fake and corrupt.

So are we supposed to believe that every institution that we look into is completely corrupt except for the climate models? I mean just let that soak in. Every single thing that we can check that's big and important is fake. Everything. But you think the climate models are the only exception? You don't need to be an expert. All you have to know is that everything is fake. Once you learn that everything that can be faked is faked you become the expert. If they invented something tomorrow that I don't even put a name on it just a new thing that was big and complicated I would tell you it's fake and I would be right without even knowing what the topic is. If you just said oh we're going to put 50 billion into this new thing and they've got all kinds of data and the data backs what they're doing I would say yeah it's fake. It's all fake. And if you got a chance to look into it you would find out I'm right without being an expert because everything that can be faked is faked. Everything. It doesn't take any expertise at all to know that.

So to me it's just hilarious that every time I post on X do you find out about the climate models? There is a 100% chance that those climate models will be debunked and go down in history like the food pyramid. It's the food pyramid people. I don't know when it will happen. Could be

tomorrow. Could be in 20 years. But the climate models there's not a chance there's not even the slightest chance that those are real. So we'll see. Anyway Google's ex-Google CEO Eric Schmidt has warned that China technology is pulling ahead and David Sacks writing about this on X saying that they're doing better on AI. Part of the problem is that apparently in the US we've got something called s…
