  Speaker 3: every day is just a little bit better. I'm not
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: over this thing, which is ridiculous. It's been over a
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: week now.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I feel like I should be over it, but I'm not.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: So we'll take it. We'll take it one day at
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: a time, and we'll do this. So we'll do this slowly.

  Speaker 3: Shows will be a little shorter as my energy is
• 0:58

• 1:04
  Speaker 3: intend to be here all week, at least until Friday,
• 1:09

• 1:14
  Speaker 3: is happening in the world. All right, so let's jump in,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: jump in with with our news. And yeah, I hope,
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: I hope this thing just goes away. I keep expecting
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: to wake up in the morning and it's gone, and
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: you know, nope, it's still there.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: All right, let's start.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: You know, this is a story that we've been hearing
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: rumors about for I think over a month now, and
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: but yesterday today this morning, was announced officially that Barbe
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Weiss's A Free Press has been bought, has been bought
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: by Paramount skuy Dance for one hundred and fifty million
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: dollars one hundred and fifty million dollar and that Barry
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Weiss will become the basically the head of news at CBS.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: CBS is owned by Pamint skuyd Dance, and she's not
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: going to become editor in chief.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Of CBS of CBS News.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: So this is this is huge, and this is massive
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: indication for of course for Barry Weiss and and everything
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: she has done.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: If you remember Barry was.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: A journalist, you know she she had worked in a
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: number of different publications, some Israeli publications, Jewish publications. She
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: spent her time in the Wall Street Journal as an
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: op ed and book review editor. She left the Wall
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Seat Journal of twenty seventeen.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: She went to work.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: At the New York Times as an op ad staff
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: writer and editor at the New York Times, and in
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: She resigned.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: And she resigned from New York Times. It was a
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: pretty famous resignation because she published a resignation letter.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: It made all the news.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: I remember covering it here on the IRN book Show
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: at the time. She basically accused the New York Times
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: of an illiberal environment. She claimed that she was subject
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: to constant bullying by her colleagues, primarily because of her
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: pro Israel views and because she just wouldn't go along
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: with kind of the woke leftist progressive agenda that had
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: come to dominate the New York Times. And in her
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: resignation she called for.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: A new era media and the formation of new media entities.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: And she she started up a new.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: A newsletter, common Sense.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: I think it was called Right off the bat, which
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: which gained a lot of attention as well. It turned
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: out to be incredibly well written and UH and and
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: she attempted to kind of capture what she believed was
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: kind of a census position, a common sense position, uh A,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: a position that was removed from the kind of UH
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: dominance of of the woke fall left agenda of of
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: the New York Times and the mainstream media more broadly. Ultimately,
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: she UH turned the newsletter into the Free Press.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: UH which man she she.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Hired reporters, she hired staff, a bunch of columnists to
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: write column for her. She was joined in this in
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Denver by her wife, Nelly Bowles, who wrote a humorous
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: TGIF column kind of on every Friday, and by her
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: own sister, Susie Wiss, who was a co founder and
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: who was also a co founder of The Free Press
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: and turned it into an alternative media company, a successful one.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: This had grown.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: She had grown this to about one hundred and seventy
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: five thousand paying subscribers. According to Walstee Journal, the business
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: generates about twenty million dollars of annual revenue, so she
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: got seven and a half times revenue.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's rich.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: It seems you know, one hundred and fifty million seems
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: like a lot of money for twenty million of revenue.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know what her bottom line is like, what her.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Earnings earnings alike, what her profitability in other words, is like.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: It's probably a very profitable business.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Reporters and columnists are not that expensive running a network,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: running an online website is not that expensive. There's no
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: printing cost, there's no anyway. It seems like it's quite
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: a profitable business. And anyway, she did very very well,
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: basically within five years She took a non existent business
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and she started something that.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: You know, went to twenty million in revenue. That is huge.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: That is huge.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: That is a real entrepreneurship. Congratulations to Barry Weiss. I mean,
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: this is fantastic. It's good for her, you know, it
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: just it just shows that all those people who sit
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: there whine and complain and bitch about mainstream media and
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: all these other things, here's somebody who did something about
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: it and has become a gazillion as a consequence. She's
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: she's very, very rich now and and she has gone
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: back into the mainstream media now in a position of power.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: And I will get to that in a minute. We'll
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: get to the what's happening at CBS in a minute.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: But but this is a.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Just an inspiring story of.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Successful entrepreneurship and should be taken as such. And it
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: also means that, you know that there are a lot
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: of other alternative media companies out there that probably have
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: a worth a lot more money than they expected given
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: these valuations, whether it's The Dispatch or uh, you know,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: there's a bunch of others that have an independent voice
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: and have picked up lots of subscribers. And this is
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: kind of given some kind of valuation to a lot
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: of those a lot of those businesses. So again, congratulations
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Barry Ies. I mean, she's done a lot over the
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: last five years. I mean, she was one of the
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: founders of University of Austin. She's still on the board
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: on the board at the University of Austin. You know,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: she has really become a voice, a pro Israel, a
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: major pro Israel voice out there. She has an interview show,
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: kind of a podcast that is incredibly successful. And of
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: course the publication itself has just become it's just a
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: really good publication.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Now it'll be owned by Paramount and.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: Hopefully, hopefully will be left free to continue its path
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: of success. Now all of this is made possible, ultimately
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: by the fact that the media world in which we
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: live is going through some big changes.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: That is, we're seeing.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: We're seeing a lot of money come in and start
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: buying media assets. Paramount sky Dance is a result of
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: Larry Ellison's son, David Ellison. That's Larry Ellison, who is
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: the CEO of Oracle and A has been I don't
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: know consistently, but it has been a big support of
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump's Larry Ellison is his son, Sorry, David Elson
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: is the son. David Elison has kind of put together
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: the financing and backed by his dad and basically bought
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: bought Paramount and is now the chief executive. Larry Ellison
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: is not a leftist, you know. Larry Ellison himself is
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: somebody who you would have considered probably twenty years ago,
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: more of a libertarian, highly significantly influenced by you, and
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: a big Attla Shruck fan, but never very active in
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: politics or in the think tank world or in supporting
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: really any kind of causes. Really sat on his money
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: and on the sidelines.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: How to tell what his politics are today?
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: Again a support of Donald Trump's, but how to tell
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: what kind of a conservative slash free market is there
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: still free market there?
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what his positioning is.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: But here you have David Ellison, his son, who is
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: clearly on seems to be on the right, taking over Paramount.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Part of that is taking over CBS and dedicated now
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: to restructuring CBS and shifting it away from the conventional
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: left wing bias of the mainstream media and hopefully making
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: it a more objective news outlet. And I think of
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Barry Weiss's mission is to bring that objectivity.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: That is her goal.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: That is a goal, that is a goal of barriers,
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: is to bring kind of objectivity.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: The goal of Weiss is very much to bring a.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: To bring a sense of reality to media, to do
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: the opposite of what she saw the direction of the
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: New York Times. She saw the New York Times had
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: in those in the in the twenty teens, not that
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: The New York Times was ever anything but heavily heavily
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: leftist biased. I mean, nine Man talked about this in
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: the nineteen sixties and how biased the New York Times
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: was back then, and she identified it as a leftist,
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: as a leftist, and it's only gotten worse, right, only
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: gotten worse since the nineteen sixties and going back to
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: nineteen thirties when it was running post Stalin stories. So
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: New York Times has always been left as biased. Anyway,
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: The idea now is that Barry will come into CBS
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: and clean house and.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Make it more objective. You know.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: In terms of Barry's own politics, it's really hard to tell.
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: She's sympathetic too much of Trump's agenda, but she's certainly
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: not a conservative. Obviously, she is she's gay, she's married
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: to another woman. You know, they've got two adopted children.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: She has people writing for her both left and right.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: I have noticed over the last I'd tak a couple
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: of years, suddenly, over the last year, since Trump got elected,
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: the free press becoming more and more kind of conventional
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: right wing that is tilting more towards the Trump agenda,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: which I have noticed with sadness, as have many other people.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: I think we've supported Barry through much of her career.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: But you know, but I think on certain issues, obviously,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: she still sticks to her kind of I think set
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: of beliefs which are more I mean, I think an
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: economic she's the center left, and on cultural issues or
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: some cultural issues she sent a center right.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Again. But she's definitely anchored in the center way too.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I think.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Positive about Trump. But she brings a whole bunch of
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: different voices to the free press, and that is good
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: for I mean, this is part of a much broader
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: shift in our media landscape, a shift to the right,
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: uh that we are seeing, of course, with Twitter taken
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: over by Elon Moscus as the beginning of that. One
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: of the things that could happen here is that Ellison
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: is talking about buying.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: What are they who are they.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Buying Discover, which would give them control of a CNN.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: So you could see CNN coming under the Larry Ellison
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: paramount umbrella, which would shift CNN and might be Barry
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Wise very influential at CNN, your ABC and NBC kind
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: of stuck where they are. But I think what you're
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: going to see and and uh, you know, the politics
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: here are pretty straightforward. You're going to see a shift
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: to the right, a shift towards kind of a more
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: of a Trumpet's agenda. I think that people around Trump ambitious,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: Many of them have money, and they will be deploying
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: that money in an effort to move.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: The media landscape more to the right.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: Hopefully what Barries will do at CBS is not a
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: shift to the right as much as a shift towards objectivity,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: but that is yet to be seen, all right, So
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: that is Barry Edit to chief CBS. Now, congratulations to
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: Barry Wise. That that is pretty exciting for her, for
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: her team, and I think for CBS and going to
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: be really really interesting for the rest of us to
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: watch and to see what happens next.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: What happens next? All right, let's see.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: All right, so, you know, in dominating the news, I say,
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: the last couple of days, over the weekend into today,
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: there's been the deployment of ICE into places like Portland, Owigan,
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: and now into Chicago. We saw that massive raid last
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: week on a apartment complex in Chicago where children who
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: dragged out a bad whole families dragged out just brutal tactics, brutal, militant, uh,
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: really disgusting and anti American tactics used by federal by
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: federal agencies in order to cap the catch these uh,
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: you know, dangerous dangerous illegal immigrants. Videos are constantly out
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: about people just stopped in the middle of the street
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: and dragged into vans.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: They're still using unmarked vans. They're still using ICE agents, uh,
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: not always in uniform and uh with their.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: With their faces covered up. Uh.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: You know these uh, these authoritarian tactics by a federal
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: agency that has now gained more power than any than
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: any uh policing entity, federal policing entity in my memory
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: in the United States.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Ever. You know, I don't know the history well enough to.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Say ever, but at least in at least since I've
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: been in the United States. The idea of of of
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: you know, roving groups of ICE agents walking around these
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: cities and uh, you know, capturing people, dragging people, uh
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: for basically for what for for violating immigration law? For
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: you know, the equivalent of speeding victimless crime. These are
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: not gang members. They've got they got the gang members
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: that they could. Now they're just capture and dragging people
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: off the streets.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: This is reminiscent of every authoritarian regime. This is this
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: is you know, they need stormtroopers, they need somebody who's
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: willing to go into the streets of America, America after
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: all and arrest people based on the instructions of the
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: higher ups in Washington, d C. It's a disgusting, disgusting
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: display of authoritarianism. Anyway, they're gaining a lot of resistance.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: They're they're getting resistance from local law enforcement who are
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: not always willing to protect them shield them from demonstrators.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: They're gaining resistance from demonstrators and from just local population.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: You see this all the time.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: Where you know, you you'll find video online of these
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: ICE agents jumping on somebody and and people just coming
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: around and yelling at them to to to leave them
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: alone and and.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: To go away.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: You know, this is obviously offensive to the ICE agents,
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: and they were unhappy and they feel unprotected, and there's
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: stories about, of course their life being at harm. And
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: there was that shooting I think it was in Dallas,
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: that shooting against them. And I'm sure, I'm sure some
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: of it is organized and some of it is clearly
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: not organized because it's just you can see that it's
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: just random.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Some it's organized. Good.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm glad somebody is organizing to oppose this barbarism.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: So I have no problem with it being organized. I
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: think that is good. But generally, you know, they're no
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: burning buildings. You know, Portland, oreigun, in spite of what
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: Trump keeps saying, is not burning down. It wasn't twenty
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: twenty when he didn't send troops, but it's not now.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: You know, nothing that crazy is going on. Some ICE
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: agents so being harassed while trying to do their disgusting job.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: There were things happening in the United States.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Anyway, Trump would like to send.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: Troops into these cities in order to stop the demonstrations
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: and in order to protect the ICE agents so the
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: ICE agent could keep doing the The horrible things that
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: they're doing. So he tried to call up the National
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Guard in Oregon and try to call up the National
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: Guard in Illinois. There's been resistance to that from the
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: governors of Oregon in Illinois, and ultimately there's been resistance
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: to that, and ultimately there's been resistance.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Resistance to it in the courts.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: It's gone to the courts and federal judges have said, no,
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: you don't have the authority to deploy National Guards here.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Now I am not a legal scholar. I do not
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: an opinion about whether this is within the scope of
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: what a judge can decide or not. The same is
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: to in now in Chicago. Since they can't deploy the
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: National Guard. If Illinois, Trump wants to deploy Texas National
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Guard bring in foreigners, right, bring in Texas National God
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: into Illinois to do the.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Trump administration's bidding.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: Assume that bidding involves protecting ice agents from the abuse
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: of unarmed people who might stand in their way and
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: yell at them God forbid. And now that is going
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: to go in front of a judge. The State of
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: Illinois has sued as suit for this. And now this
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: is of course separate from the whole issue of deploying
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: federal troops into these cities for.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: To fight crime. That's not the issue we're talking about
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: Now, we're just talking about protecting ICE agents, and we're
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: talking about ICE agents. Ice agents do not make our
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: streets safer. So this is not like the the Washington
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: and DC deployment, which was about crime.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: And look, it's very easy to reduce crime.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Boukla has the formula you use just arrest everybody. If
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: you arrest everybody and put them in jail, crime drops.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: Crime drops dramatically, not everybody. Sorry I'm exaggerating. Arrest all
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: males within I don't know. If you arrest all males
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: from age twelve, sixteen to thirty, crime will drop like
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: ninety five percent.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, ending crime is easy.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: The hot pot is to do it while respecting freedom
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: and liberty, while not arresting innocent people, while not putting
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: in jail without due process.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: That's the tricky part.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, I've always claimed you want to end crime,
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: just have a curfew on all men. Just have a
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: coofew on all men from you know, a certain time
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: at night from ATOTL six pm to seven am every day.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Men cannot go outside and crime will plummet, and that
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: would be that would be the solution. But that is,
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: of course the writes violating mechanism. But it's easy. You
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: want peace and quiet and crime free. Authoritarianism is greatary.
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: Under authoritarianism, there's very little crime, very little crime. Yeah,
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: well you do the lockdowns instead of COVID. You can
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: just say crime lockdowns. Let's do lockdowns. Yep, that'll solve it.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: And I think I think this time conservatives would love
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: it because it's against crime, and it's in democratic cities.
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: We don't want to do lockdowns in Republican cities. No,
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: we don't do that right, partially because there are no
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: such things republican cities. The question is do we live
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: in a free country or don't we? And to live
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: into freedom? Yeah, I mean these cities should have more
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: police out there in the streets.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: More of these criminals should be in jail.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: And the keys should be thrown away, they should be
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: locked up forever. We should get much tougher unsentencing, and
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: we should put a lot more police in the streets. Now,
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: defund the police, increase the police. But policing in America
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: is a local issue. And the people who suffer from
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: the lack of policing in Chicago are the residents of Chicago.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Residents of Chicago have.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: An opportunity to vote the mayor, the chief of police
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: or whatever out whenever they want.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: They go to the polls, vote.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: Them out and replace them. And maybe if things go
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: completely out of control, as they do some weekends in Chicago,
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: maybe you know, having some National God there in order
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: to stop gang warfare in the streets of Chicago makes sense.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: If there was a legal framework to do that, it's doable.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: It's not what they're being asked to do now. National
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: God is being asked to come into the streets of
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: Chicago in order to protect the thugs from ice harassing
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: hardworking but brown skinned people. Ice is the problem right now.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: Ice is not the solution. Ice does not reduce crime.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: If anything, Ice likely increases crime by increasing people's frustration
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: with the system they live under.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: But here's.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: You know, I think what is becoming the real issue
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: around all of this. This is, at the end of
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: the day, not about ice. It's not about the National
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: Guard being sent in. This is about creating an environment
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: in American cities that the government can start calling an insurrection,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: and if it calls it an insurrection, then they can
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: use the Insurrection Act to now deploy troops in mass
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: into American cities without asking for anybody's permission. The goal
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: here is and remember Trump spend the weekend telling us
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: that the real enemy, the real enemy that our troops
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: should be fighting, is his political opponents.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: It's a democratic party.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: The real goal here is to intimidate anybody who opposes
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: Trump by placing troops or by having the power to
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: place troops anyway in America. I mean, this is straight
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: out of the fascist playbook. Straight out of the fascist playbook.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: So Stephen Miller is constantly, constantly writing without you know,
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: he's on Twitter all the time. Every tweet of his
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: includes the terms insurrection.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: Here's one legal insurrection.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: The president is the commander in chief of the armed forces,
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: not an argon judge.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: And yet the.
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: Armed forces for which the president is commander in chief
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: have no responsibilities within the United States.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: That's outside the United States.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: And even there his power is limited by Congress. He
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: has no authority as command in chief within the United States.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: He has no authority as commanding in chief. In Oregon.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: There is no violence in Oregon that justifies sending in
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: National Guard.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: It's just an excuse.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: It's just creating the violence, creating the situations that would
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: elicit the violence so that he can send in the troops.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: The goal here is to put troops into the streets.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: That's the purpose, not to bring peace between intimidate Stephen Miller.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Goes on and Stephen Miller. Without any doubt, Stephen Miller
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: is a fascist. He's not hiding it anymore. He doesn't
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: pretend anymore. He is, and pretty much everything he said
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: since the Charlie Kokmoda has suggested a fascist like.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Takeover of the American government.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: He continues, Portland and Oregon law enforcement, at the direction
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: of local leaders, have refused to aid ice officers facing
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: relentless terrorist assaults and threats on life terrorist assaults wear
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: those There are more local law enforcement officers in Oregon
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: than there are guns and badges in.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: The FBI nationwide. Okay, maybe maybe Oregon.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Is the responsibility of Oligon law enforcement. Maybe don't send
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: the FBI. They're not needed, not necessary. He continues this
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: as an organized terrorist attack on the federal government and
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: its offices, and the deployment of troops is an absolute
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: necessary necessity to defend up personnel laws, a government, public order,
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: and the republic itself.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: And of course.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: The response to this is, yeah, impeach all the judges,
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: get rid of all the judges. And you saw Bookele,
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: even from El Salvado bucell come in and say, yes,
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: this is what I did.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: I got rid of all the judges.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: You can't get anything done if you keep getting stopped
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: by judges. Just impeach them all, replace them all with
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: people that support you, and then you can do whatever
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: the hell you want.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: I think that's called authoritarianism. That's what he is.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: He's an authoritarian thug, and that's what he wants for America.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Even a Lune Musk has come out in support of
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: impeaching all the judges.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: So basically Donald Trump could do whatever the hell he likes.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: And this all is a consequence of this judge, a
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: Trump appointee, I might say, a Trump appointee preventing the
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: mobilization of National God not just from Oregon but from
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: other states. So what's the solution. Impeach him, get rid
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: of it or Matt Walsh. Matt Wall says, we have
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: long reached the point where Trump needs to openly defy
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: these judges. Some random federal judge has no authority to
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: decide how and if troops are deployed, Yes.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: They do, if it's in the United States.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: They're so evasive, they're so sneaky, he continues, she is
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: not the commander in chief, Ignore her and deploy them.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: It's time for her showdown with these activist judges. This
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: is who you've this, this is the ideology of those
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: in power right now, Stephen Miller. The one thing you
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: haven't heard from Democrats in the midst of all this
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: reaving hysterionics, telling the radical base to stop violently assaulting
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: ICE agents. The docsing murder threats and violent attacks are soaring. Really,
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: just days ago, a sniper trite assassinate multiple ICE agents,
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: two vehicle rammings attacks in one day.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: The list is endless. You can name three things.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: But instead of condemning the violence, they claim the domestic
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: terrorism is provoked by the mere presence of federal officials
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: are adoring the moral frame and language of the paid insurrectionists. Anyway,
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: the whole goal here is to create an environment where
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: our opposition, the Democratic Party, anybody on the left, anybody
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: who doesn't like what Ice does. They're terrorists, they're bad guys,
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: They're evil, they.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Must be shut down.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: Forces must be used against them.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: And to help with the judges. Here's named Bukele.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: When we impeached our country's corrupt judges, we face strong
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: backlash on the so called international community, including the Biden administration.
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: We did it anyway because it was the only way
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: to save our country. The US, however, doesn't have to
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: answer to anybody.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, just do it.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: You don't have to answer to anybody. Maybe it's your
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: own people. Other than that, this is all an effort
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: to accel, to make things worse, to intensify the conflict,
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: to create a situation where there's burning buildings in Portland.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: They want that, They want street confrontation. They want to
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: be able to use whatever legal tools that they have.
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: They need an excuse, just like every fascist needs an
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: excuse to declaim martial law. An emergency situation where we
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: already have what three hundred emergencies going on right now
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: in the United States according to executive orders up the Kazoo, Well,
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: we need the ultimate emergency that requires putting troops into
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: the streets.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is actually put aside.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: Trump put aside, this is actually how fascism begins. Calls
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: to the president to have unlimited power, free the president
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: from any constraint by the court system. That's how it begins,
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: and then troops into the streets. And this is exactly
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: what people like Matt Walsh and certainly Miller are calling for.
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: And by escalating like this, by calling these judges legal insurrectionists,
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: by using this kind of incendiary language, you know, are
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: they inciting or suggesting maybe not inciting directly violence against
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: these judges. If the left broadly was respond well for
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: Charlie Cook's death, is the right, including Steven Miller, responsible
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: for the burning down of that judge's home in South Carolina.
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: Luckily nobody died in that boone, but it was very
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: close that had jump out of the second floor window. Somebody,
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: it is assumed, set that house on fire. Is Stephen Miller.
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: Does you want the violence? I think he does. I
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: think he wants violence. He does get left wing violence,
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: right wing violence. He just wants the violence because he
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: knows the violence creates the circumstances right which you.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Can take more and more and more power.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: Never let never let a crisis go to waste. And
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: Stephen Miller is a student of that, he knows that well,
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: and he has no intention to let that go to waste. So, yes,
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: it is true that the house in South Carolinia. We
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: don't yet know if that was Austen or not.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: We'll wait and see. We'll wait and see.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: But if it was, is somebody gonna, you know, anybody
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: on the right take responsibility for it?
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: Probably not? Probably not.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: Again, the judge that Stephen Miller called the legal insurrectionist
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: was a Trump appointee. All right, we you know, this
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: is the direction we're heading. This has been the direction
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: for a long time. It's getting worse. The rhetoric is
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: getting worse. The actions are getting worse. That the constant
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: appearance of Trump and Heckseth and everybody else in front
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: of military and talking politics in front of the military,
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: violating a long tradition of not politicizing the military, that
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: is getting worse.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: It really is, it really is, you know, bad.
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: Stuff, bad stuff. So yeah, we will we will see.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: We'll see what happens. So far, Trump has decided to
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: abide by court decisions.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: I mean mostly they kind of skirt at the edges.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: They cheat a little bit on the immigration stuff, but
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: mostly they follow what the quote has said. We'll see
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: if that continues, We'll see what kind of challenges they pose.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: I think ultimately this is why they want to ferment violence,
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: because that will give them the excuse ultimately to put
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: troops into the into American cities, you know, in spite
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: of the courtes. So maybe under those circumstances, the courtes
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: will flip because it'll actually they will have created an emergency.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: But we will see, we will see how it goes.
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: Uh, all right, yeah, I so.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: On news from.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: Europe, this sounds like like the news from every week.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: The French prime minister has resigned.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: This is uh. He he only was in.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: Office for less than a month. He had just put
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: his government together. They haven't even gone into their offices
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: and started and he's already resigned.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: So franc is with no government right now.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: This is I.
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: Think the the the greatest government is stability in France
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: since World War Two. Uh, France has not become like
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: Italy used to be, where governments flip constantly on a
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: regular basis.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: It's hard to tell what exactly Mccaonn is going to
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: do at this point appointing one more guy from the
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: center is just going to create exactly the same situation
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: where they're going to have to resign. If he goes
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: to somebody on the right to form a government, that
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: government might might be able to stand.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: But I don't think mccaughann actually wants to do that.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: We will see.
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: He could go to Jordan, well they are which from
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: the National Rally, which is Marie La Penn's a political party,
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: but he has you know, McConn has shown no interest
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: in actually doing that. He could call for another election,
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: but it's not sause the result would be any different.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: The fact is that the it's the result of the
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: last time that he called the election, which was basically
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: a stand might between the right and the left with
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: the center being insignificant, which has brought about.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: This current situation.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: Or he could do the ultimate, which is an ultimate
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: would be uh, you know, to to resign and basically
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: trigger an election for president, not just an election for
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: for parliament. So we will see, we will see exactly
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: what happens. But it is it is looking bad for fans.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: There seems to be no coherent strategy and uh fans
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: here don't appreciate, appreciate the prior comment.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: Not your dave, what you're getting at, not sure what
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: you're uh, what you're after.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: So you know it's gonna be it's gonna be interesting
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: to watch fans and to see does indeed fans go
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: the way of if you will the far right or not?
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: You know, are they going to be captured by the right.
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: Is that it's going to happen. It was going to
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: happen at some point anyway. But oh yeah, what he said, Okay,
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: not what I said. So that's in France. In Italy,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: Italy is also not Italy.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: Oops.
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: I didn't want to say Italy. I want to say Japan.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Japan has also faced a crisis. The ruling party basically
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: has a minority position in both houses of parliament. The
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: prime minister resigned as a consequence, and the.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: Ruling party is just dominated.
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: Then new candidate for prime minister and for the first
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: time in Japanese history, for the first time in Japanese history,
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: the Prime Minister of Japan will be a woman. I
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: know that must shock some of you who think Japan
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: is the last bastion of of chauvinism, but it does
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: appear well it does appear. It is the fact that
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: Japan will be ruled by a woman. This woman is
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: from the conservative wing of the Japanese ruling party.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: She is very much anti immigration.
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: She is pro building up a strong Japanese military to
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: stand up to the Chinese.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: She is not She is not a supportive of free markets.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: She is not a supportive of capitalism, as no conservative
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: is these days. That is not sexy, that is not popular.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: So just like the rights in Europe which is not
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: free market, just like the right in America now, which
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: is not free market now, the right in Japan is.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: Not free market.
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: So it's going to be interesting to see what she does,
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: how she governs, and what kind of prospects prospects.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Japan has.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: Japan has of course faced economic challenges right now.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: For thirty plus years. It has struggled economically.
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: It is stagnated to a large extent, and sadly, this
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: new prime minister doesn't seem like they are going to
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: make really any difference. They're going to double down on
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: the existing economic policies and kick out.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: A bunch of immigrants who are in Japan.
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: But of course, part of economic growth in Japan going
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: into the future is going to be really dependent on immigration,
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: whether they like it or not. So they're going to
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: have a really really hard time paying for all those
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: old age benefits without importing at least some workforce given
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: their benefits arrangements.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: Finally, there is a story published by The Economist a
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: few a couple of days ago that is making the
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: rounds on on Twitter. People are citing it and quoting
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: from it and reflecting on it, and uh, it's a
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: good article.
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: So I wanted I wanted to mention this, and uh it's.
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: The title of the article is how Europe crushes innovation,
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: How Europe crushes innovation.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: And there, of course many many ways.
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: In which Europe crushes innovation, and this article focuses on
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: one one important way, and and it's it's particularly indicative,
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: and that is on labor laws.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Labor rules in Europe make it very very difficult to
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: fire people.
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: They make it very very difficult to restructure and to
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: do mass firing in companies.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: An article makes the point that you know I have
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: made for I don't know thirty forty years now.
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: That that yes, when you make it hard to fire people,
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: you make it hard to hire people.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: And you want to make it.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: Hard to fire people. You make it very very hard
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: for businesses to take risks.
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: Because they can't pivot, they can't change.
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: Once they've hired people, they're locked into that group of people.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: And if they want to invest in a new product
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: in a new area, in new innovation, and they're.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: Going to hire a bunch of people that but it
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: might fail in the US.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: If you're convinced that it's a good idea, you hire
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: the people, you invest in the resource, you try to innovate,
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: and when it fails, you fire everybody.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: And you shrink.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: But if you can't do that and your idea is well,
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: if the bench of fails, I'm stuck with all these people,
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: then you just don't innovate. It has this really good
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: cartoon on the front of an American with strapped with
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: like a rocket on his back launching off into kind
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: of into the sky, and the European in a suit
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: and tie with a briefcase with a massive ball right
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: with the EU flag on it shackle to its leg
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: make it impossible to him to go anywhere. Europe does
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: not innovate. It does not have cutting edge companies. It
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: has missed out on much of the technology boom for
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: the last thirty years and now has no prospects. When
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: it comes to AI, it is way left behind. And
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: when you look at innovations where America is not very
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: good at necessarily think about electric cars, batteries, things like that,
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: the Chinese have taken off and Europe is stuck.
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: Europe is not innovating in anything. So I like the
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: way this starts.
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: There are two ways for Western companies now meeting for
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: the article.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: To sack lots of people.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: The American one involves the boss inviting hundreds of unsuspecting
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: employees on a zoom call, offering them a few months
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: wages of seventh instancely wishing them luck in their future endeavors,
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: oh and to have their desks cleared by lunchtime.
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: The European method is more secustious.
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: Companies wanting to enact mass layoffs typically start with consultations
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: with unions, representatives of which sit on company boards.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: In Germany, a plan a social plan is drafted.
• 48:21
  Speaker 3: Strikes inevitably ensure politicians get involved and badger the employer
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: into firing fewer people than it had originally planned, or
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: to pay for it soon to be ex staff to
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: be retained. The full cost of downsizing is only known
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: once labor courts are called to rule on.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: The matter years later.
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: Meanwhile, the company question often cannot hire more employees lest
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: it be made to hire those who were just let go.
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: So if you fire people and you're going to go
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: hire people, you have to hire the people.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: You fired first.
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: The article goes on to say the European system may
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: feel kinder. In fact, the cumbersome process of letting go
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: workers comes with hidden costs.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: Not so hidden.
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: Actually, it is not just that they expense and hassle
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: of occasionally firing employees, wigs and firms long term profitability. Rather,
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: the shit difficulty of shredding staff and mass a reality
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: of corporate life, steers Europe's biggest companies away from making
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: risky bets in innovative fields, In particular investments in disruptive technologies.
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: Disruptive breakthrough.
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: Think of the kind of wizy products that mostly come
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: out of silicon value from artificial intelligence models to driver
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: less cause require the ability of big companies to hire
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: lots of staff then later fire most of them if
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: the project don't pan out. High restructuring costs in Europe
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: makes such investments unviable with a catastrophic knock on impact
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: on the continent's economy. It seems like Europe slowly, slowly,
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: reluctantly waking up to the fact that regulations actually have
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: a price, that this is really, really, really going to
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: be painful for them.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: Here's laid it down in the article.
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: For decades, Europe did fine with its incremental but likely
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: to play to pay off innovation model. Century old firms
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: show they're still money to be made in developing a
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: slightly better tire or a faster train, but in recent
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: years there are awards flowing to companies making bold better
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: Balloon tech firms that pursued disruptive innovation have turned into
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: trillion dollar be homes. None of them are in Europe.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: In Vidia, an American chip maker, is worth more.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: Listen to this.
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: In Vidia is worth more than the European Union's twenty
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: biggest listed companies combined.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Combined.
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: Some of that may be a bubble who's popping mace
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: blat American business, but lacking companies in such superstar sectors
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: is one reason why output power worked by Europeans has
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: slumped in comparison with America. In recent decades and why
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: work as in America relatively speaking, a rich and in
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: Europe they're not somebody. Paul Graham, I think, pointed out
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: that in the cartoon, one of the things that is indicative,
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: even though the article doesn't talk about it, is the
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: fact that the American entrepreneur with the rockets on his
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: back is wearing shorts and a T shirt basically, and
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: that the European is wearing a suit and tie. And
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: he says, this too is indicative of a different mentality
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: the bureaucrat. The European businessman is more of a bureaucrat.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: The American entrepreneur thinks outside the box. Let's interested in appearance,
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: more interested in results. I think that's absolutely right. This
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: is my whole point about dress codes.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: Right. So, yeah, maybe Europe is waking up.
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: There be now a number of different papers studies on
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: how to make Europe more competitive that it basically urged
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: Europe to become less regulated. We'll see if they take
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: this seriously and if anything actually gets done.
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: How to believe? How to believe?
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: But Europe is horrible, and from that perspective, from other perspectives,
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: the United States right now is horrible. It's very difficult
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: to know where to go these days. The world is
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: not in good shape, not in good shape at all.
• 52:54

  Speaker 1: expert on anything to do with energy.
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: Right now, energy is the biggest issue, biggest issue out there.
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, the amount of energy that these AI facilities
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: are going to require is just astronomical. I don't know
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: that anybody really has a grip on it. And where
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: all this energy is going to come from. We're going
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: to need to build massive numbers of natural gas plants,
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: nuclear power plants, other plants, and we're gonna have to
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: do it very quickly because these things are going to
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: come online soon. And if we don't build those extra plants.
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: They're going to suck up all the electricity, and you
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: and I, all of us, our alexrisity bills are going
• 56:49
  Speaker 3: to go through the roof, through the roof. When demand
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: goes up, the supply is capped, prices move and the
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: big air companies can pay higher prices.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: Can you?
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: So to find out more about what's going on, how
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: it's being dealt with, what the solutions are, check out

• 57:16
  Speaker 3: this stuff and got to foot in the door in
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: the Trumpet administration, so he knows what they're thinking.
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: He knows what's going on over there.
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: All right, All right, not a lot of questions, So
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: this is going to go pretty quickly.
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: But if you'd like to ask.
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: Us a question, if you'd like to support the show,
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: please jump in and do so, all right, Ryan, Ryan says,
• 57:47
  Speaker 3: have you observed any prominent voices on the right calling
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: out Taka and Owen racist dog whistles and antisemitic rhetoric?
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: Have you observed any prominent voices on the right calling
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: al Taka and Owen's racist dog whistles and anti Semitic graetorics?
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: Shouldn't the Christian.
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: Nationalists distance themselves from these lunatics.
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: I mean there are some, there are a few, but
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: not many.
• 58:15
  Speaker 3: I've seen Ted Kruz go after Tucker Cosson recently, and
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: there are a few others, but not that much. And
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: you know, I you assume that the Christian nationalists are
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: not lunatics. But Christian nationalism is a lunatic ideology. It's
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: a crazy anti American ideology. And I think you would
• 58:34
  Speaker 3: you would expect people, you know, with that ideology, two.
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: With that ideology, you.
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: Know, you'd expect you'd expect them to some of them
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: at least to support Tucker and Owen, And if not,
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: you'd expect many of them just to ignore them because
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: they'd be afraid of aliening. You know, a lot of
• 58:59
  Speaker 3: their support is ultimately the support for Christian nationalism comes.
• 59:03
  Speaker 3: I think it overlaps quite a bit with the kind
• 59:06
  Speaker 3: of people who watch Tuckah and watch Candice own. Christian
• 59:11
  Speaker 3: nationalism as compared to what is compared to Christians, not Jews,
• 59:17
  Speaker 3: not atheists, not so anti Semitism is not that fall
• 59:21
  Speaker 3: into them. So no, you know, you're not seeing massive
• 59:27
  Speaker 3: voices out there condemning them and postially because they realize
• 59:32
  Speaker 3: just the size of the audiences that both Tucka and
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: Candiceon have. And I don't think I don't think people
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: fully appreciate because it's easy to write them off. Is
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: just nuts and crazy and evil and bad. But I
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: don't think people appreciate how large the audiences are. And
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: you can't just write it off. Given the size of
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: the audiences. Millions of people listen to them, and we
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: better take them a lot more seriously than we are,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: because I watched the videos and this is this is
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: just ridiculous. These these people are not worth commenting on
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: because they're so stupid and and so crazy, not just stupid,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: but crazy, and yet they are because they have these
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: massive audiences.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: John, thank you for the.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 3: For the stick. I really appreciate it. All right, Ryan,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: like the show. The algorithm demands your compliance. Yes, please
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: like the show.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: Like it. Like it, Press the like button. It really
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: really helps.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: The algorithm really helps with the algorithm, all right. Michael
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: left us at tax on Mega won't work. It's going
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: to take leadership from the right to chip away at MAGA.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: But there is no leadership on the right. There's nothing.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 3: Zilts is not a just no leadership on the right,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: and that people who tried of all failed in the
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: Goldberg's of the world, they've all failed, you know, So
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 3: no leadership on the right ain't happening, Michael says, will
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 3: you be optimistic if the Democrats sweep the House and
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 3: Senate into twenty twenty sixteen twenty twenty six, will that
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 3: be the beginning of the end of of the fascist phenomena?
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, it will sure help.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 3: It will be a claimunication of the American people that
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 3: they don't accept Trump's agenda. It'll be a repudiation of
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 3: that agenda. I don't know that it's going to happen.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: It's going to be very difficult for a public for
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 3: Democrats to capture the Senate. They might be able to
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: capture the House, but there's no enthusiasm for Democrats among Americans.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 3: So the only way that happens if there's Americans are
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: so fed up with Trump they use this as a
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 3: vote against them. I think that's fairly unlikely that it
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: happens in big enough numbers to mean anything. But you know,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 3: if Democrats control their House, they can at least distract Trump.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 3: And again I don't think they can control the Center.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: It would be good if they could for a little while,
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: but I don't think they can, you know, so Republicans
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: will still have the center, will still be able to
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 3: pass their nominees.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: Put them into place.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think a massive win is very unlikely, partially
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: because of how just deifiably unpopular the Democrats are.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: Michael in the early.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: Nineteen forties Germany, few people saw the possibility of Hitler
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: being defeated. How do you see Trump and MAGA unwinding
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: or being defeated. Well, I mean, one plus is that
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: Trump is old, and so much of the phenomena around
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: Trump is a personality cult. So it is there's a
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: good chance that he doesn't run in twenty twenty eight,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: and if for somebody else has to step in. And
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: let's say there's a number of mega candidates and they
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: all fight each other and splinter the movement, and that
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: weakens it significantly, and maybe a more reasonable candidate manages
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 3: to sneak in in spite of that. Right now, there
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: already a lot of infighting within MAGA. Look at Laura
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: Luma going after Marjorie Taylor Green and they're fighting constantly.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean it's it's it's going to be.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: The one chance we have is that MAGA just splinters.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: It's the infighting. The infighting basically kills it. I think
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 3: that's probably the best chance we have. Tessa, did you
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: mention that you will be doing a show about art influence?
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 3: Thank you for all that you do. I did members
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: only show. I will I will do that, not you
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: exactly exactly. When again, this covid h the bed, you know,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: knocking me out and placing me in bed has uh
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: has made any planning very very difficult. It's also true that,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: as I think I told you, I'm traveling every week,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 3: every single week and mainly on the weekends from now
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: until Thanksgiving. So again that is going to make it
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 3: very difficult to do these additional shows.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: But I am going to try.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: Catherine says, what is your opinion on Austrian economics? Which
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 3: scholars work would you recommend. I'm a huge fan of
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: Oscaran economics. I think ultimately Austrian economics properly understood is
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 3: the right is the right economics. It's about as true
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 3: as economics has gotten, you know, I like the original
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: Austrians primarily mesas of on Mesas. I also like coll
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: Manga and vom Bawk. Of their more current Austrians, I
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: really like Israel Kutzner, but there were a.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: Lot of them.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 3: There were a lot of a lot of economists out
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 3: there influenced by Austrians and Austrian economists. There's a whole
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 3: young generation out there, some of whom I've talked to
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: on the show, like like like Magnus, who are who
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 3: are quite good and I would recommend so I'm a
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: huge fan of Austian economics, except that they dabble into anarchism,
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: which I think is really bad.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: But of course miss didn't Andrew.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: No matter how much collectivist attempts to blind us quote,
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: the fragment about which they speak does not exist.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: Only man exists unquote.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 3: That's from objectivism is the first true philosophy for man
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: and the singular. Yes, it's the first true philosophy, first
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: true philosophy for man. Yeah, Michael, why haven't we seen
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 3: any Trump Omega type figures in Europe? Are Europeans better
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 3: educated about nationalism and fascism? They know not about nationalism,
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 3: educated about them. They know not to start down the path.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, what are you talking about? The the the original.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: Maga is in Hungary, Auban.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 3: Auban is the original Maga Putin if you can't Putin
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: as Europe. Putin is of course a mega character out
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 3: of Central casting. You've got the guy in in Slovakia,
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 3: I forget his name right now, but the Slovakian Prime
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 3: Minister is definitely a mega like Trump type pro Putin,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 3: anti anti West uh. And then you've got you've got
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 3: all these right wing political movements in Germany and France,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 3: in Spain, in the Netherlands, that again in Scandinavia, they're
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 3: gaining power. They not they haven't yet reached a point
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: where they can run a government, but they're certainly gaining
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 3: influence and gaining significant and gaining members. So Europe is
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, look at and look at look at what's
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 3: his name in in the UK, Nigel Faraj is very
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: much a Trump like Maga like character. So now quite
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 3: the opposite, Europe is filled with him. Michael again, will
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 3: you be interviewing Jason Ryins this far? Really curious to
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 3: hear his assessment of Trump so far? Yes, I'm sure
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: I will be. I don't have anything planned, As I
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 3: said earlier, this COVID has thrown me for a loop.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 3: So I'm not very I haven't been very organized around this.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: But we will start in viewing in the weeks to come,
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 3: and it might have to be delayed until I get
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 3: back from all my travels. It might be only in
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: late novemberly December, but we will say. Wesley thought, thought
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: on the Trump administration beating out Argentina twenty billion to
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: help out with minor US trading partner seems odda for
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: the America first presidency.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: It's not odd, it's wrong. It's bad.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: It's bad for Melay that he needs a bailout. It's
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 3: bad for the US to provide it. But it's not
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 3: odd at all. You know, anybody who sucks up to Trump,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: who's nice to Trump, you know, is going to be rewarded.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: And this is true of business, the Cituring politics, and
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: the Centurian international affairs. And Milaya's being super friendly to Trump.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 3: So he's going to get a bailout.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: And look, Trump is Trump. It's not that Trump can
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: identify the good guys.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: He had a phone call this morning with Lula, Lula,
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 3: the really evil, really bad president of Brazil, and Trump
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 3: came away from that phone call. Oh, it was great,
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 3: so friendly, really good conversation.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 1: We'll have more.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 3: We're gonna do good things with Brazil and so on.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, the guy has no standards, no principles, and
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 3: will sell up. But it's really really bad that the
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 3: US is doing this. You know, Trump is not America first.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 3: He's never been America first. He doesn't believe in America first.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 3: He's whatever he feels like being. He'll do whatever he
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 3: feels like doing. There's no get away from the idea
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: that there's some principle, some guidance as to what he does.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: There isn't. It's just whatever it feels like. Whatever comes.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: Paul to your health and watch out for long COVID.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Paul, I appreciate it. I don't know how
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: you watch out for it. Either happens or he doesn't.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: Gail.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: Trump seems to be ramping up his emotional rage, seems
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: to be getting him what he wants, ultimate power. Well,
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know if he wants ultimate power. I think
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 3: some of the people around him want them more than
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 3: he does. He just wants to be able to go
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 3: after the people he wants to be able to go after.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: He wants to have the military out there because it's macho.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: I think his needs are pretty simple. He's not an
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: ambitious dictator. That's not who Trump is. And Trump himself
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 3: is not a fascist. I think I think these other
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 3: people are. He's just whatever, He's just nothing. But yeah,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: I think his rage. He's not completely stable. You can
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: see that in the way he talks and what he says.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 3: He's not completely with us. He's seventy eight ys and
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: it's getting to him and it's the people around him
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 3: that's scammy. Linda would love to chat to you about
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: cause they find art. Sponsoring YBS sounds good.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: We should chat.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 3: Flesh And are you aware of any objective's party or
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 3: something similar there? The Capitalist Party that the capitalist Party
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 3: that's out there, just such capitalist party and they have
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: a website and a platform and all of that.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: But there's no I mean, not of people would vote
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: for you.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: There's nothing actionable because we have too little influence and
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 3: too small of a voice. But check out the American
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 3: Capitalist Party. Lose Cinda any plans to Jason Ryan's on
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 3: again anytime soon. Been watching his contlectures while working through
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 3: excerpts from a textbook on content. Yes, as I said,
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 3: I'm sure I'll have Jason on. So exactly when I
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: don't know, but I will have him on. Are you
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: a fan of ragtime music? I mean I like ragtime music?
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: Do I would I call myself a fan?
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: Probably not.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: I don't seek it out, but when I hear it, Yeah,
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 3: it's enjoyable.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: I enjoy it. I like it.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: And yeah, I understand what's the lamp peacock doing a
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 3: lecture on ragtime music or something like that, So yeah,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: it's it was the music from the Sting. Rob Redford
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 3: just died, so it reminded me of the Sting and
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 3: the rag time music and the Sting that was good music, Robin.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 3: Many see illegal immigrants as breaking the law, leading to
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 3: some level of support for Trump and Ice.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: What efforts are you aware.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 3: Of the channel to change the immigration process to lure
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 3: more legal immigration. Well then none, zero, zilch. Quite the
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: opposite legal immigration. They're making it harder. They've you know,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 3: they've increased the price you have to pay for H
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: one B to one hundred thousand dollars. So they're trying
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 3: to kill the H one B program. And there's no movement,
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: zero movement to make other paths of legal immigration easier, better,
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: a smoother legal immigration into the United States is an
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: unmitigated nightmare right now, and this administration is making it.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: Worse, not better.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: Whether people resent to legal immigrants or not legal immigration,
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 3: there's no constituency.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: For much more legal immigration.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 3: All right, that went fast, but that's good. I'm still
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 3: trying to say my voice. Thank you, guys. I let's
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 3: see I will see you guys tomorrow at about the
• 1:14:03
