er way to hide your money and what you're doing. It makes me wonder because I did hear that Bill Gates has met with Trump a couple of times. And it seems to me that Bill Gates would have lots of things that he really needs the government to do in order for Bill Gates to do what he wants to do. In other words, there might be regulations that prevent his investments in nuclear power. Could be lots o…

They haven't figured out what that comprehensive crime bill would be. It's comprehensive, so it would include something about cash bail, something about funding cops, I suppose. But what I love about this is that I kept seeing Harold Ford Jr. who kept saying almost every day on The Five on Fox News saying that the Democrats should try to be proactive and do something useful about crime instead of acting like maybe they're in favor of crime more than they are crime prevention. And he kept saying, you know, they should propose a comprehensive crime bill.
Well, it looks like the Republicans just took that away from him by being the ones who are initiating the crime bill. Now, of course, the Democrats would have trouble getting anything approved, but at least it would look like they were doing something. You know, they could say, "Well, we don't agree with this federal takeover of Washington DC's police, but we are working on this crime bill. Look how smart we are. If we were in power, you'd have this crime bill, and you'd like it." But no, Republicans are going to take that completely away from them.
Will a comprehensive crime bill be popular? Probably at least 60 percent. I don't know if it's an 80-20, but yeah, I think it'll do fine with the public.
Well, you probably know there was another shooting yesterday and I wasn't going to talk about it because the two topics that I try to avoid are anything with individual crime like a mass shooting and anything about trans. Those are two topics I generally try to avoid. It's only because the trans topic is just everybody saying the same three things. There's nothing to add really. And you know the mass shooting things, they all start to look alike and then you say all the same things.
It's like something about trans and then people will say something about their hormones. Elon Musk did. He goes, this is Elon Musk: "Violent crimes per capita by trans-identified individuals is 10 times higher than the overall population. Large doses of artificially administered hormones are driving them to extreme violence and murder. These extreme hormone treatments should be withdrawn by the FDA."
Now the first question is, is that per capita data correct? Is it true that, you know, if you adjust for how many there are that the trans people have a 10 times higher odds of violent crime? Remember my rule is I don't trust any crime data. Don't trust any war data. Don't trust any economic data. Yeah, maybe, but I wouldn't automatically think that that was true. But anecdotally it looks true.
Anyway, and I don't know if we've proven that the artificially administered hormones are part of what's making them do what they do. But it's a popular opinion. A lot of people have that same opinion. I don't know if they're right.
So, we're going to talk about all the same boring things. What's up with trans and you know gun laws and how to use guns and why didn't his parents know that this was going to come and then there's going to be the conversation about prescribed drugs because I don't know if he was on any but the obvious question is were you on any anti-depressant drugs that may also be implicated in causing people to be violent and then it was a Christian school so we'll talk about Christianity being under attack.
There's nothing I can add to that, right? The entire conversation is so scripted in advance that there's just nothing to add. Yeah. Everybody's going to say one of th

e eight things that people say about this sort of thing, which unfortunately happens somewhat regularly. So you don't need me to say all the usual stuff, but there is a new bluntness happening. I don't know if you've noticed, but as wokeness is trying to be put back in a box, people are being a lot more blunt about race and trans and everything else. Robbie Starbuck was recently asked in an inter…
