ur brain. Your brain is physically different if you do a lot of ayahuasca, but apparently it's a positive. But it did not help, and this part surprised me, it didn't help anxiety, depression, or general mood in the long run, probably in the short run. But the other hallucinogens like the mushroom type, I think that there's more indication that they last. But the ayahuasca will make you more emoti…

All right. You probably saw the story that some group I never heard of called the Young Republican National Federation, some of their private or internal text messages got revealed. And there were some very provocative and inappropriate messages in there that got surfaced. So there were people joking about gas chambers and saying they like Hitler and referring to black people as watermelon eaters and monkeys and other disgusting things. The leadership has disavowed it totally, the leadership of the Young Republican National Federation, and demanded that anybody who's involved with those messages immediately resign from the organization.
Let me give you, for those of you who are not male, let me give you some insight. All right? I don't think I have to tell this to anybody who's a male. Do you have any idea what young males say when they think nobody's listening? Do you have any idea? I've been a young male. Not anymore. But do you have any idea what would be normal conversation among 19-year-olds? Any idea? Do you really think this is outside the line that you discovered this little pocket of people who say things that are provocative? No. This would be every group of 100 people is going to have 10 trolls in it. Let's say if you picked 100 young men, doesn't matter what race, doesn't matter what politics, doesn't matter. Probably doesn't even matter what religion. That would matter a little bit. But if it's just a hundred people picked randomly, you're going to get 10 trolls who think it's the funniest thing in the world to say things that offend the rest of the people. They would be doing it to be offensive, but the payoff is the offensive part, to see the reaction.
If you don't understand that about young boys or men, that there's going to be 10% trolls, they're going to say whatever is the worst thing you could say and they're doing it for the reaction, for the attention, then you don't really understand this. Pretty much all of those people will outgrow this kind of behavior. So for the people who are under 25, I just say, "Wait, it's not really a problem you need to fix. It's not ideal. I don't approve of it. That's why it gets fixed. When people get to a certain age and they realize nobody approves of this, just nobody approves of this. Then they start to buy into the system a little bit and it goes away." So I would say it's a non-problem. But it is a shock probably to women to find out that this would be so ordinary. And by the way, I'm not saying it's ordinary that they're racists. I'm saying it's ordinary that they would pick whatever was the most provocative, inappropriate thing to say, and 10% of them are going to say that, guaranteed every time. Whatever it is you don't want them to say, 10% will say it because they just love doing that. So I wouldn't take it too seriously. I think the young Republican leadership treated it right. They disavowed it right away. They said, "You got to get out of here." They set a standard. That's all you can do. Sort of a non-story.
You probably know that Jimmy Kimmel praised Trump for his Gaza success. He said, quote, "I know it sounds crazy to say, but good work on that one, President Trump." Now, I would say that was the easiest thing that anybody could ever do. So Kimmel probably would enjoy having some easy non-controversial way to get back some of his conservative audience. I mean that's a big reach. I don't think he'll get them back. But it's easy to say, you know, once CNN and even the critics of the president have sided with him on Gaza, it's kind of easy at that point to say, "All right, all right. You did that one thing good." So that was smart and appropriate, but it makes more of a contrast with why the ladies of *The View* can't seem to do this. When you see how easy it is and how smart it is, really, it's just smart. Then you see that *The View* can't do the thing that's easy and smart. Just can't do it.
So anyway, the most predictable thing that would happen after this Gaza deal seems to have been made, the most predictable thing would be violations of the ceasefire. Is there anyone who thought the ceasefire would not be violated? Of course it will. It's always violated because there are members of both sides who probably didn't want peace. There probably are some Israelis and probably some Gazans who were like, you know, I wouldn't mind a little bit more war. We could maybe get more of what we want out of this deal. So of course there will be ceasefire violations, but as long as the main combatants have been separated, it should be limited and something we can work through. I don't think it'll be the end of the process.
Anyway, and then the reports that Hamas has already carried out a bunch of public executions. We don't know how much. It might have happened once, eight people, but there's reports of at least 33 people who have been executed, sort of revenge I guess. They just take them out. But that too was 100% predictable, right? It's 100% predictable that Hamas would execute whoever they didn't like during the war, but at some point they run out of people to execute or at some point they lose their weapons.
So Trump says Hamas will be forced to disarm or quote "we will disarm them." I asked on X, who's we? Because I think there are 200 US troops over there. They're not going to do it, right? I hope we're not sending US troops on the ground. But he said we, he probably means that peace council, whichever countries decide to be part of the security arrangement. But he says the disarmament should take place in a reasonable period of time. Well, you know Trump is good at disarming. If you saw him shaking hands with Emmanuel Macron, he practically ripped his whole arm off. Yeah, he's very disarming.
And then Trump clarifies. He says, "If they don't disarm, we will disarm them and it will happen quickly and perhaps violently." But then he looks sort of at the camera. Trump did this at his event at one of those press events yesterday. He says, "But they will disarm. Do you understand me?"
Now, my understanding is that that had not been maybe completely agreed when they said yes to the hostage deal. I believe that Hamas was still sort of holding on to maybe the option that maybe they could keep some weapons, whereas the Israelis and the US were saying, "Nope, that's not an option. You're not keeping any weapons." So that was I think a non-agreed-on point.
Can Trump once again change reality as opposed to negotiating? Change reality so that Hamas would actually disarm. I don't know. He's acting like he talked to Hamas and they told him that they would disarm. So he's taking their no as a yes again, right? I mean, it may be a little murkier this ti

me, but I'm pretty sure they didn't say yes, but he's saying that they said yes to him. Now, we can't prove that because we weren't in the room, but did they say yes to him? If they said yes to him, that would carry some weight. But I also love the fact that if they didn't say yes to him, he might still say that they did because that would be another example of him changing reality as opposed to n…
