cial records? Has anybody looked at them? Have his financial records been thoroughly examined by some police entity in prior cases, you know, prior situations? Or would the Treasury Department have to start from scratch and say, "Ah, nobody's looked into this, but you know, we'll spend a month trying to put it together." Well, maybe we'll find out everything or maybe we won't because allegedly Epstein was an expert at laundering money. So if we see all the official and legal ways that he moved money around, it might not tell us anything, but I'd love to see the dollar amounts, wouldn't you? Wouldn't you like to see if suddenly, I don't know, $50 million came into his account one day and there's no explanation for it? I don't know. And I don't know how much of his money would have been, let's say, in Swiss accounts or something like that. I don't know if we can penetrate them these days. So we might not find out anything.

Did you know that one of the ways to get rid of all those microplastics from the water? Scientists found out that you could put extracts from okra and fenugreek, some kind of plant-based thing, and tamarind. And what it does is it sticks the plastic and makes it heavy enough to sink to the bottom. So they can get rid of 90% of microplastics just by putting this natural goo, they call it, into the water. Now, this is one of several scientific breakthroughs I've told you about recently that all deal with microplastics. And I think microplastics will be another one of those Adams' law of slow-moving disaster situations where it looked like are we going to all die from eating plastic because it's in everything and we can't get it out? Well, it looks like we had enough time for the smart people to figure out some solutions. They don't have the solutions yet, but they're definitely knocking on the door with a number of different technologies.

As you know, Trump said he's going to deploy the National Guard to Memphis next because they have very high crime. I think they're the highest crime in the country. They have a Democrat mayor, but the Democrat mayor has allowed them to come in, but he's trying to have it both ways. He's trying to basically criticize Trump while accepting his help. So he's really walking a fine line here. What did he say? He said there are a lot of citizens in our community that are scared, said Mayor Young about the National Guard coming in, and he says he doesn't think sending troops will bring down crime but he welcomes the help. What an idiot there. There are so many Democrats who you can't even say well you know I have a slightly different opinion. That's not about opinion. This is just an idiot. I mean, it's hard to say anything except, "Oh, you're an idiot." Oh, okay. That's all we need to know. There's no point in discussing because you're not going to change the mind of an idiot. But he thinks that sending the troops will not bring down crime. After he watched Washington DC, he thinks it won't bring down crime. Well, at least temporarily it will. I don't know what happens in the long run. He says these citizens are scared. Really? They're going to be scared of the National Guard who won't be arresting anybody. They'll just be sort of a resource and being a presence and they're more afraid of the people who are stopping crime than the crime. So you'd rather take your chance with a murderer than a National Guard member? Is that what your citizens would prefer? You idiot. You absolute idiot.

Now, I've said this before, but I think all local governments are criminal organizations. I think they're all just finding ways to move money around. By the way, when the founders of the country designed our form of government, there wasn't that much money moving around, was there? If you were a mayor, it wasn't like, oh, we've got these giant contracts for building the new thing. We're building the new town center. We're building, I don't know, fixing the highways in town or whatever we're doing. If you didn't have a ton of money flowing through the city, well, maybe the people you elect would just do the job of taking care of the city. But the moment the dollar amounts go through the roof, which would be the current situation, you know, anything you did in a city would be ridiculously expensive, and then you let those same politicians decide where the money goes, you know, which vendors do the work, you are guaranteed to create a criminal organization around siphoning off some of that money just because there's so much of it.

So I would argue that the founders who brilliantly created a great system and constitution that if they had known how much money was going to be flowing through the cities eventually they would not have designed it the way they did. There's a part missing, the audit, you know. Now, obviously anything can be audited if people want to, but it needs to be a permanent part of the system. You've got to have something where the auditors change out often so they don't get corrupted or owned by the people they're trying to audit. And I don't know exactly what the system would be, but there needs to be gigantic transparency about where every dollar goes and we should all be able to easily look at it and we should look at, oh, it went to this vendor. Does this vendor have any connection, family or best friends or anything with the people who made the decision? Well, then you could maybe drive crime out of governments. But at the moment, I just assume that any mayor of a big city is a criminal. How many of you assume that? I assume that every mayor of every big city is a criminal and that maybe that's what attracts them to the job. I don't know. There might be some exceptions, but my assumption every time I see one is like, why would you even have that job? Who would want that job? Who would have so much skill that they could be a mayor and that that was their best career opportunity? Criminals. Criminals. So I believe it ends up being all criminals in local government.

Anyway, so we'll see what happens in Memphis. True. So if you're wondering, 63% of Memphis is Black. 43% in Washington DC is Black. Now, the mayor said that the base problem is poverty. And as I've explained, you can't work on the poverty until you work on the crime. So there you go.

Elon Musk and JD Vance are agreeing with each other on X that you could do a lot about crime if you just put in jail forever the few people who commit all the crimes. Now, you're probably aware that there are just individuals who can do hundreds of crimes and even be caught hundreds of times and released to do hundreds more. So if you don't put them in jail forever, your crime rate probably never goes down because they don't stop doing crimes and they're not going anywhere. So if you don't lock them up forever, there's no really hope of crime ever going down. It would be impossible. But if you lock up the most dangerous people who are doing probably I don't know what the ratio is but 80% of the crime probably maybe 5% of the criminals are doing 80% of the crime and we know who they are because we keep catching them. It's not like they're even hard to catch. They've been caught maybe dozens of times already but they're just let go. So JD and Elon agree on that and I feel like that would be a way better approach than the National Guard. The National Guard is not a bad idea. It brings attention to things and maybe calms things down temporarily, but doesn't seem like a permanent. I don't think it's a permanent fix. But jailing the people who do all the crimes, that would be permanent.

Now, if you wanted to get clever and say, "Hey, it's too evil to put people in jail for life because they let's say they shoplifted three times in a row or something like that." I don't know if that would be enough to be life in prison. But I feel like some people just need to be sent to the island where they can live with the other crooks and they're just not near people who are not crooks and maybe keep them there forever. But it doesn't have to be in a jail cell. You know, you can let them just wander around and eat cheap food and grow their own or they could survive. It's just you just can't let them with other people. All right. Get the fuck away from those prisoners, from the criminals, I say.

Missouri passed a Trump-approved redistricting plan which would give them one more Republican House seat probably, the AP is reporting. So that's pick up one and remember the House is really close so one seat could be the difference between a majority and not having majority for the Republicans.

We know now that John Bolton's personal email account, he was using a non-secure personal email for some stuff, he's being accused of, was hacked by a foreign entity. New York Post is reporting. Now, I don't know what foreign entity it was that's not being reported. But how do you feel knowing that he was using his personal email for some things that may have been classified? At leas
