SPEAKER_02: Previously on the Donald Trump Theater radio show.
0:03
SPEAKER_02: Why would we be trolling them?
0:05
SPEAKER_02: Is that the plan?
0:06
SPEAKER_02: To troll them into submission?
0:08
SPEAKER_02: Did Canada walk away from the deal?
0:10
SPEAKER_02: Were we the ones who blew up the deal with last minute stuff?
0:13
SPEAKER_02: I spoke to President Trump over the weekend after the breakdown in negotiations with Canada.
0:19
SPEAKER_02: He did not dispute that the U.S. added conditions late in the talks.
0:23
SPEAKER_02: He said, quote, that sounds like me, end quote.
0:26
SPEAKER_01: That sounds like me?
0:29
SPEAKER_02: That sounds like me.
0:33
SPEAKER_02: It just happened.
0:34
SPEAKER_02: This isn't some story from the frat days where you're like,
0:38
SPEAKER_02: woke up in a pool of my own vomit in a trade war with Canada.
0:41
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I guess that sounds like me.
0:50
SPEAKER_00: We are controlling transmission, if we wish to make it louder.
1:15
SPEAKER_02: We will bring up the body.
1:16
SPEAKER_02: We can change the focus to a soft blur.
1:18
SPEAKER_03: You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas.
1:23
SPEAKER_03: You've just crossed over into...
1:25
SPEAKER_02: Am I stepping into the twilight zone?
1:28
SPEAKER_02: Places in the house, feels like we're gone.
1:32
SPEAKER_02: My vehicles can't move, I'm the moon and star.
1:36
SPEAKER_02: Where am I to go now that I've gone too far?
1:41
SPEAKER_02: For your consideration,
1:42
SPEAKER_02: a nation held hostage by the fragile ego of a man-baby president,
1:46
SPEAKER_02: you were trapped with in the Twilight Zone.
1:57
SPEAKER_02: Big news finally being made official this morning.
1:59
SPEAKER_02: American democracy has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
2:03
SPEAKER_02: After years of mounting losses,
2:04
SPEAKER_02: the once-storied institution made what many are calling a very expected move today
2:09
SPEAKER_02: and will be permanently closing its doors.
2:11
SPEAKER_02: For more reaction, we're joined now by ONN business reporter Stephen Green.
2:15
SPEAKER_02: Stephen, long time coming here, but it looks like democracy is officially dead.
2:18
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and you know, I can't say I'm surprised, Dwight.
2:21
SPEAKER_02: Some investors I spoke with say they've had democracy marked as a distressed asset
2:24
SPEAKER_02: as far back as 2016, some even longer than that.
2:27
SPEAKER_02: And really, can you blame them?
2:28
SPEAKER_02: It's a concept that might have worked 250 years ago, but it's really a dinosaur.
2:31
SPEAKER_02: Right, the whole notion of it doesn't make much sense.
2:33
SPEAKER_02: It's just abundantly clear
2:49
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I'm old enough to remember when people would wait in line for those.
2:56
SPEAKER_02: All right, so what are investors turning to now?
2:58
SPEAKER_02: Well, the obvious move is authoritarianism.
3:00
SPEAKER_02: Most investors moved their money into that a while ago,
3:02
SPEAKER_02: and they've already been seeing some huge returns.
3:04
SPEAKER_02: Wall Street loves authoritarians.
3:06
SPEAKER_02: But an interesting hedge that I've been hearing a lot about is total anarchy.
3:09
SPEAKER_02: It's always been viewed as great long-term,
3:11
SPEAKER_02: but every day it just keeps looking stronger and stronger,
3:14
SPEAKER_02: and it could come into play in the short term in a big way.
3:16
SPEAKER_02: But look, no matter where you put your money, at this point, you gotta sell on democracy.
3:21
SPEAKER_02: It's over.
3:21
SPEAKER_02: All right.
3:22
SPEAKER_02: Thank you, Stephen.
3:22
SPEAKER_02: American democracy is reportedly hoping to recoup some of its losses by selling off
3:26
SPEAKER_02: the majority of its physical assets like voting machines and the U.S. Capitol.
3:31
SPEAKER_02: Coming up next, a death-defying stunt by the Treasury Secretary.
3:34
SPEAKER_02: Scott Besant says he's going to attempt to jump the wealth gap in a motorcycle.
3:53
SPEAKER_01: Stayin'
3:55
SPEAKER_01: in bed, full of
4:01
streets, full of streets.
4:04
Please don't wake me, no, don't shake me, leave me where I am, I want you.
4:13
SPEAKER_01: Drumpf was in Ireland over the weekend.
4:17
SPEAKER_01: He was there for a very important golf tournament at his club in Doonbeg.
4:21
SPEAKER_01: He got a big welcome from the locals.
4:25
SPEAKER_01: Remember when Obama went to Ireland and Biden went to Ireland?
4:30
SPEAKER_01: Well, this was a different visit.
4:31
SPEAKER_01: The Irish people are famously among the friendliest people in the world.
4:36
SPEAKER_01: But this president, they chased him out like St. Patrick chased the snakes out.
4:40
SPEAKER_01: He went over like an ice cube in a Guinness over there on Friday.
4:45
SPEAKER_01: Donald Drumpf was at the Pentagon at a ceremony to commemorate the 25th anniversary of 9-11.
4:51
SPEAKER_01: And while Donald Drumpf doesn't typically shine in situations like this, he is a New Yorker.
4:56
SPEAKER_01: He was there when this happened.
4:57
SPEAKER_01: And he was, I have to admit, surprisingly eloquent.
5:01
SPEAKER_00: We will always remember the victims and the families of September 11th, 2001.
5:08
SPEAKER_00: Very famous date, unfortunately.
5:14
SPEAKER_01: He's at his best when he riffs, you know, when he goes off the script.
5:19
SPEAKER_01: Everybody seems to think I'm lazy.
5:23
SPEAKER_02: I don't mind.
5:25
SPEAKER_02: Think that crazy.
5:27
SPEAKER_01: Running everywhere at such a speed.
5:32
SPEAKER_01: Do it fine.
5:34
SPEAKER_01: There's no need.
5:36
SPEAKER_01: There's no need.
5:38
SPEAKER_02: These don't spoil my day.
5:57
SPEAKER_01: So at the event, Teddy Dozevelt got in a pretty good nap.
6:02
SPEAKER_01: So much so,
6:03
SPEAKER_01: he was sleeping so much on camera,
6:05
SPEAKER_01: the White House had to put out a statement that said he wasn't asleep.
6:09
SPEAKER_01: They said he was just solemnly listening.
6:11
SPEAKER_01: It's so perfect.
6:12
SPEAKER_01: A guy who spent four years screaming,
6:14
SPEAKER_01: Sleepy Joe, Sleepy Joe, constantly falling asleep on camera.
6:18
SPEAKER_01: He slept through his inaugural Board of Peace meeting.
6:21
SPEAKER_01: He slept at his own inauguration.
6:25
SPEAKER_01: He took a snooze during his big fireworks parade.
6:30
SPEAKER_01: He fell asleep at NBA Finals Game 3,
6:33
SPEAKER_01: his big Freedom 250 concert,
6:35
SPEAKER_01: his Memorial Day Remembrance event,
6:38
SPEAKER_01: the Pope's funeral he slept at, Lindsey Graham's funeral he slept at.
6:43
SPEAKER_01: He slept through so many Oval Office announcements.
6:47
SPEAKER_01: For reclassifying cannabis.
6:49
SPEAKER_01: For putting milk back in classrooms.
6:51
SPEAKER_01: Fertility drugs announcement.
6:53
SPEAKER_01: He slept through healthcare affordability.
6:56
SPEAKER_01: He slept through changing the rules for vaccines.
6:59
SPEAKER_01: He snored through so many cabinet meetings.
7:02
SPEAKER_01: He slept at last year's 9-11 memorial.
7:06
SPEAKER_01: And he slept again at this year's 9-11 memorial.
7:11
SPEAKER_01: But I will say this.
7:13
SPEAKER_01: Compared to Mitch McConnell, Drumpf has more energy than Kevin Hart.
7:17
SPEAKER_01: He is...
7:57
SPEAKER_02: This is a Texas.
7:59
SPEAKER_02: These are balloons.
8:02
SPEAKER_02: Now that is also a balloon, but it can talk bigger, fartier sounding, making balloons.
8:09
SPEAKER_02: So a kid had a party.
8:12
SPEAKER_02: It was really big.
8:13
SPEAKER_02: Am I close?
8:14
SPEAKER_02: Yeah,
8:15
SPEAKER_02: so remember that kid in the Twilight Zone where every day was his birthday because
8:18
SPEAKER_02: if you disappointed him, you got put in the cartoon and eaten?
8:21
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
8:21
SPEAKER_02: Sort of like that.
8:22
SPEAKER_02: Okay.
8:23
SPEAKER_02: The story is President Drumpf doing what he can to save face for himself
8:27
SPEAKER_02: and his party before the midterm elections.
8:31
SPEAKER_02: They did that by having the first ever midterm convention in Dallas this week.
8:37
SPEAKER_02: What was the name of that special event?
8:40
SPEAKER_02: Douche-a-palooza.
8:41
SPEAKER_02: Republicans hold what they're calling a Drumpf-pa-palooza.
8:45
SPEAKER_02: Drumpf-pa-palooza.
8:47
SPEAKER_02: It's Drumpf-pa-palooza here in Dallas, Texas.
8:50
SPEAKER_02: It's gonna be a Drumpf-pa-palooza.
8:53
SPEAKER_02: We're gonna highlight all these amazing things that the president's doing.
8:56
SPEAKER_02: Whose idea was this?
8:58
SPEAKER_02: This was the president's idea.
9:01
SPEAKER_02: And that's the head of the RNC going, hey, don't you put that shit on me.
9:06
SPEAKER_02: It would make more sense if they had called it the Drumpf-pa-palooza.
9:10
SPEAKER_02: Then I would understand.
9:12
SPEAKER_02: Please raise your right hand.
9:13
SPEAKER_02: I pledge to the greatest president
9:19
SPEAKER_02: in the history of the United States.
9:45
SPEAKER_00: That loves us so much he can't even breathe.
9:52
SPEAKER_00: That I will go out with my family, my friends.
9:57
SPEAKER_00: I'll do it anyway.
9:58
SPEAKER_00: I don't care if I'm registered or not.
10:00
SPEAKER_00: I'm going to try and cheat like hell like they do.
10:03
SPEAKER_00: I think they found the voter fraud.
10:04
SPEAKER_00: There it is.
10:06
SPEAKER_02: I would just say, you know, I'm not a doctor.
10:09
SPEAKER_02: And I just want to be clear about that.
10:10
SPEAKER_02: But if Drumpf is having trouble breathing, I would say it could be patriotism.
10:15
SPEAKER_02: It could be deep vein thrombosis.
10:17
SPEAKER_02: And I might think about getting it checked out.
10:19
SPEAKER_02: I'm honestly fine if he doesn't get it checked out.
10:25
SPEAKER_02: Shame on all of you.
10:27
SPEAKER_02: Shame on all of you.
10:29
SPEAKER_02: Look at what he's made you become.
10:33
SPEAKER_02: Why do you think the Republicans decided to have the first ever mid-term convention?
10:38
SPEAKER_02: The Republicans didn't decide to have it.
10:40
SPEAKER_02: Donald Drumpf decided to have it.
10:42
SPEAKER_02: The Republicans are terrified to tell him it's a bad idea, and it is a very bad idea.
10:47
SPEAKER_02: Drumpf's name was spoken just on the first night, I believe 155 times.
10:52
SPEAKER_02: He said, I am on the ballot.
10:54
SPEAKER_02: Everyone dislikes him now because of...
10:57
SPEAKER_02: Everything.
10:58
SPEAKER_02: Everything.
10:59
SPEAKER_00: To be fair, if you don't say his name 155 times, how is he going to pay attention?
11:05
SPEAKER_00: That's true.
11:07
SPEAKER_00: If you say his name three times in the mirror at midnight,
11:12
SPEAKER_02: a ham appears.
11:15
SPEAKER_02: Drumpf.
11:16
SPEAKER_02: It was held in Dallas because one of the most watched Senate races in the country is
11:20
SPEAKER_02: between Democrat James Tallarico and Republican Ken Paxton.
11:24
SPEAKER_02: Old Donald Trump pulled up to Dallas,
11:26
SPEAKER_02: got in front of that microphone and let
11:28
SPEAKER_02: the voters know just how much he likes Ken Paxton.
11:32
SPEAKER_00: The fact is that some may not like the way he dresses.
11:38
SPEAKER_00: I don't.
11:38
SPEAKER_00: They may not like The way he talks.
11:42
SPEAKER_00: I can see that, you know?
11:44
SPEAKER_00: Then they say, you can't say this, sir.
11:46
SPEAKER_00: That's so insulting.
11:47
SPEAKER_00: Please, sir.
11:48
SPEAKER_00: Some people don't like the way I look either.
11:50
SPEAKER_00: You may not like the way he looks.
11:53
SPEAKER_02: I thought that was a Kevin Hart roast.
11:57
SPEAKER_02: Drumpf is loving this riff.
11:59
SPEAKER_02: He's been doing this a few times, and every single time it gets longer.
12:02
SPEAKER_02: So the first time he did it,
12:03
SPEAKER_02: he said, he's not much to look at, but he's a great attorney general.
12:06
SPEAKER_02: Now he's just riffing for like 15 minutes.
12:08
SPEAKER_02: He's ugly.
12:08
SPEAKER_02: I don't like talking to him.
12:09
SPEAKER_02: You don't like talking to him.
12:11
SPEAKER_02: Terrible clothes.
12:12
SPEAKER_02: No charisma.
12:12
SPEAKER_02: And then he forgets the last bit.
12:26
SPEAKER_03: Promising $5,000 each to nearly 270 million American adults if he wins both houses
12:33
SPEAKER_03: in the midterms.
12:34
SPEAKER_03: Questions have already began as to not whether his plan is feasible,
12:37
SPEAKER_03: but whether it's even legal.
12:40
SPEAKER_03: Five grand richer, straight after the midterms.
12:43
SPEAKER_03: The war with Iran will end, straight after the midterms.
12:46
SPEAKER_03: Gas prices will hit two dollars, straight after the midterms.
12:50
SPEAKER_03: Melania will give you all a blow job, straight after the midterms.
12:54
SPEAKER_03: I'll cure cancer.
12:55
SPEAKER_03: Straight after the midterms,
12:56
SPEAKER_03: all the Magalot shouting, Drumpf could cure cancer and you'd still hate him.
13:01
SPEAKER_03: Well, yeah, maybe, but Drumpf could end funding for cancer research and you'd still love him.
13:07
SPEAKER_03: Oh, hang on a minute, he did do that and you still hate him.
13:11
SPEAKER_03: $5,000 each if he wins the midterms.
13:14
SPEAKER_03: Approximate cost $1 trillion.
13:17
SPEAKER_03: That's not a policy.
13:18
SPEAKER_03: This is a completely illegal trillion dollar bribe.
13:22
SPEAKER_03: But the US national debt is already at $40 trillion.
13:25
SPEAKER_03: What's another trillion?
13:27
SPEAKER_03: For a guy who spent the best part of two years shutting down government handouts,
13:32
SPEAKER_03: this is quite the U-turn.
13:34
SPEAKER_03: But you can see why.
13:35
SPEAKER_03: Drumpf has amassed $2.2 billion since he became president again.
13:40
SPEAKER_03: And now you can have a piece of the action today.
13:55
SPEAKER_03: For a simple cross in the right box, $5,000 could be all yours.
14:00
SPEAKER_03: And it might work.
14:01
SPEAKER_03: $5,000 is a lot of money to a lot of people, but they'll never see it.
14:06
SPEAKER_03: You know, it will never happen.
14:07
SPEAKER_03: You will not see this money.
14:10
SPEAKER_03: I must know that by now, right?
14:12
SPEAKER_03: How do I know that?
14:13
SPEAKER_03: Well, all right,
14:14
SPEAKER_03: what happened to the $5,000 checks every household was promised on the back
14:18
SPEAKER_03: of all those doge spending cuts or the $2,000 tariff dividend checks for citizens
14:25
SPEAKER_03: from Canada?
14:25
SPEAKER_03: Drumpf's deranged trade wars, or the $2 gas promise, or your meds being 1,500% cheaper.
14:33
SPEAKER_03: He can't be trusted to tell the truth on anything.
14:36
SPEAKER_03: He might be president,
14:37
SPEAKER_03: but he's also a man with 34 felony convictions,
14:41
SPEAKER_03: He's pleaded the fifth,
14:45
SPEAKER_03: 26 sexual assault allegations,
14:47
SPEAKER_03: six bankruptcies,
14:48
SPEAKER_03: five draft deferments,
14:49
SPEAKER_03: four indictments, two impeachments, one fake university shutdown, one fake charity.
14:55
SPEAKER_03: He's shut down and a partridge in a pear tree.
14:58
SPEAKER_03: The man who paid off a porn star,
15:00
SPEAKER_03: even though he'd never met her,
15:01
SPEAKER_03: and paid off the woman who accused him of rape, even though he'd never met her.
15:06
SPEAKER_03: This is a guy who's willing to pretend he was carried out of Ground Zero on 9-11 by
15:11
SPEAKER_03: a couple of burly firemen,
15:13
SPEAKER_03: which is less an actual thing that happened than Drumpf's fantasy gay wank.
15:18
SPEAKER_03: He's lying about his own gay wanks.
15:22
SPEAKER_03: On Wednesday,
15:23
SPEAKER_03: the US president warned his supporters that the war would not end until after
15:28
SPEAKER_03: the midterms and that oil prices would not come down until then either.
15:33
SPEAKER_02: Over the last few years, we've heard about all the terrible things AI is going to do.
15:36
SPEAKER_02: Jacob Coxon,
15:37
SPEAKER_02: a researcher at leading AI firm Anthropic,
15:40
SPEAKER_02: says he resigned, posting, End of the decade?
16:02
SPEAKER_02: It's fall 2026, but you know what?
16:04
SPEAKER_02: Maybe that's just a disgruntled employee.
16:06
SPEAKER_02: People love to shit talk their jobs after they leave, you know?
16:09
SPEAKER_02: I'm sure the people who still work there don't earnestly believe AI could kill all humans.
16:15
SPEAKER_02: A more senior employee at Anthropic wrote this on X. Jacob is correct here.
16:20
SPEAKER_02: We really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans.
16:24
SPEAKER_02: Damn it, you still work there?
16:28
SPEAKER_02: How do they get these employees?
16:29
SPEAKER_02: Do they just ask where you see yourself in five years?
16:32
SPEAKER_02: And if you say, killed by my own creation, you're hired.
16:36
SPEAKER_02: Frankenstein ass workplace.
16:38
SPEAKER_02: So why are the people who work there so convinced this is a possibility?
16:42
SPEAKER_02: The reality is the first steps are already here.
16:45
SPEAKER_02: AI agents, and to be clear, those agents are computer programs.
16:49
SPEAKER_02: They're not people.
16:49
SPEAKER_02: They've already conspired together.
16:52
SPEAKER_02: Written malicious code, faked online identities to try to outsmart humans.
16:57
SPEAKER_02: And we know it's already happened.
16:59
SPEAKER_02: In an essay, Amadei,
17:00
SPEAKER_02: whose company runs Claude,
17:02
SPEAKER_02: writing a swarm of rogue AI agents could be capable of taking over
17:06
SPEAKER_02: the entire Internet in just six to 12 months and saying AI could be used
17:11
SPEAKER_02: for cyber attacks or to create biological weapons.
17:15
SPEAKER_02: Six months ago?
17:16
SPEAKER_02: The Anthropic CEO is saying we could have six months before AI kills us all.
17:22
SPEAKER_02: All right, I'm convinced AI is dangerous.
17:24
SPEAKER_02: Are you guys gonna stop making it or do you have some other way to stop making it?
17:29
SPEAKER_02: Anthropics CEO Dario Amadez calls for an industry-wide slowdown.
17:35
SPEAKER_02: He suggests third-party monitors,
17:37
SPEAKER_02: government regulations, and international cooperation are needed to slow it down.
17:41
SPEAKER_02: And soon,
17:42
SPEAKER_02: in a rare show of unity,
17:44
SPEAKER_02: rival CEOs Elon Musk of XAI and Sam Altman of OpenAI have said they too think
17:50
SPEAKER_02: the technology is becoming too powerful too fast.
17:53
SPEAKER_02: This makes me hopeful.
17:55
SPEAKER_02: If the people want AI to have guardrails and the CEOs of the AI companies want AI
18:00
SPEAKER_02: to have guardrails, then it sounds like AI is going to get some guardrails.
18:03
SPEAKER_02: President Trump posted today that the only control or guardrails that AI needs is
18:09
SPEAKER_02: a strong and smart high IQ president.
18:20
SPEAKER_02: I did forget for a second that
18:22
SPEAKER_01: he was president.
18:22
SPEAKER_01: Like...
18:25
SPEAKER_01: But don't worry, I know it sounds bad, but the A.I.
18:28
SPEAKER_01: Atola has it under control.
18:31
SPEAKER_01: He called in something called the All In Summit yesterday to calm everyone down.
18:36
SPEAKER_00: The robots are not going to be taking over the world, and that's not going to happen.
18:40
SPEAKER_00: You know,
18:40
SPEAKER_00: my uncle was the top,
18:43
SPEAKER_00: probably maybe the best of all time, frankly, but professors at MIT.
18:48
SPEAKER_00: So I have a little genetics.
18:50
SPEAKER_00: And who would know that better than an 80-year-old man who needs
18:53
SPEAKER_00: to have his emails printed out for him?
19:16
SPEAKER_01: The fact that our president even has to say the words,
19:20
SPEAKER_01: the robots will not be taking over the world should be enough
19:24
SPEAKER_01: to make sure we do something about it.
19:26
SPEAKER_01: But Drumpf,
19:28
SPEAKER_01: genetic strength,
19:29
SPEAKER_01: gives him an inherent and inherited ability to understand technology
19:34
SPEAKER_01: without having any idea of what it is.
19:37
SPEAKER_00: This is a different panel than I've had.
19:38
SPEAKER_00: Everything's computer.
19:39
SPEAKER_01: That's right.
19:42
SPEAKER_01: Everything's computer.
19:44
SPEAKER_01: I mean, let's be honest here.
19:46
SPEAKER_01: I don't care what side you're on.
19:48
SPEAKER_01: Donald Drumpf thinks AI is steak sauce, okay?
19:52
SPEAKER_02: He doesn't know what it is.
19:54
SPEAKER_02: But you know what?
19:55
SPEAKER_02: Let's not rush to judgment.
19:56
SPEAKER_02: Drumpf can be smart sometimes.
19:58
SPEAKER_02: Maybe the reason the economy is tanking and we're losing the war in Iran is
20:02
SPEAKER_02: because he's been putting all his energy into studying up on AI.
20:05
SPEAKER_02: Let's give the man a chance to prove himself.
20:08
SPEAKER_02: Some people say the worst case scenario with AI is that the robots,
20:12
SPEAKER_02: the machinery learns to, obviously it thinks for itself, that's what it does.
20:15
SPEAKER_02: And that could turn against humanity.
20:18
SPEAKER_02: Do we have the guardrails?
20:20
SPEAKER_00: It's going to be fine.
20:21
SPEAKER_00: We'll always have something to stop them, right?
20:23
SPEAKER_00: We'll have a little gear.
20:25
SPEAKER_00: I really hope so.
20:26
SPEAKER_00: I really don't like that robot.
20:27
SPEAKER_00: We'll stop.
20:34
SPEAKER_02: That's not how AI works.
20:35
SPEAKER_02: Are you thinking of a Furby?
20:37
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
20:40
SPEAKER_02: President Drumpf,
20:42
SPEAKER_02: please say something that tells me you have a firm grasp on the threat
20:45
SPEAKER_02: that AI poses.
20:47
SPEAKER_00: It's technology.
20:48
SPEAKER_00: No different than when television was,
20:50
SPEAKER_00: they said the movies would be out of business and the radio came
20:54
SPEAKER_00: and something else was gonna be gone and it's always everything is,
20:59
SPEAKER_00: people should think more positively.
21:03
SPEAKER_02: Did this man just compare AI to the radio?
21:09
SPEAKER_02: Trump is like if the mayor from Jaws didn't know what sharks were.
21:14
SPEAKER_02: No, no, it's safe to swim, everyone.
21:16
SPEAKER_02: This is just like when television came along.
21:19
SPEAKER_02: It's just like that.
21:21
SPEAKER_02: Also, it sounds like Drumpf thinks radio came after TV.
21:29
SPEAKER_02: He's been watching TV all these years,
21:31
SPEAKER_02: and then he comes across a radio like, you could have it without the picture?
21:37
SPEAKER_01: Technology is crazy.
21:40
SPEAKER_01: You know why he doesn't want to stop AI?
21:42
SPEAKER_01: Because the only thing he knows how to use it for is to be Jesus,
21:46
SPEAKER_01: the Green Lantern, and Hulk Hogan at the same time.
21:50
SPEAKER_01: You would think that he would take this seriously, if only for the future of his own children.
21:56
SPEAKER_01: But then you remember, his oldest son is Don Jr., so.
22:01
SPEAKER_01: We got an interesting update on who paid the bill for that Don Jr.
22:05
SPEAKER_01: wedding party in the Bahamas back in May.
22:07
SPEAKER_01: Turns out it was a Russian oligarch with close ties to Vladimir Putin, a man named Umar Kremlev.
22:14
SPEAKER_01: The new Mrs.
22:15
SPEAKER_01: Don Jr.,
22:15
SPEAKER_01: a lucky Bettina Anderson,
22:17
SPEAKER_01: has defended the fact that an oligarch hosted A party for 50 people on
22:22
SPEAKER_01: a private island.
22:23
SPEAKER_01: She wrote on Instagram that she and Don Jr.
22:26
SPEAKER_01: will never be embarrassed or apologetic and said sometimes a wedding gift is simply
22:31
SPEAKER_01: a wedding gift.
22:33
SPEAKER_01: Bettina, I know you're new to this being a drumpf thing, but...
22:37
SPEAKER_01: Why does your husband,
22:38
SPEAKER_01: whose net worth jumped from $50 to $300 million in the first year
22:43
SPEAKER_01: of his father's presidency,
22:44
SPEAKER_01: need a Russian oligarch to pay for the flower arrangements
22:48
SPEAKER_01: at your wedding reception?
22:49
SPEAKER_01: So after the story broke, spokesperson for DJ TJ said, Umar is a personal friend of Don.
22:55
SPEAKER_01: I guess they've known each other a couple of years.
22:57
SPEAKER_01: But his father put out a statement.
22:59
SPEAKER_01: I guess he wanted to make sure you didn't confuse the Dons because he said,
23:03
SPEAKER_01: I have no idea who Umar is.
23:05
SPEAKER_01: Never heard of him.
23:07
SPEAKER_01: He didn't pay for Don and Bettina's wedding,
23:09
SPEAKER_01: which took place at a totally different location and on a different day.
23:12
SPEAKER_01: It was an after party given in their honor.
23:15
SPEAKER_01: Not a big deal.
23:16
SPEAKER_01: And it was such a not a big deal, he added, I was not present at the party.
23:22
SPEAKER_01: Oh, man,
23:23
SPEAKER_01: would I love to have been a fly on the president's diaper when he called Don Jr.
23:26
SPEAKER_01: to yell at him about this one.
23:30
SPEAKER_01: And so it wasn't just Trump, by the way.
23:34
SPEAKER_01: For whatever reason, Melania's team decided they needed to distance themselves from this.
23:39
SPEAKER_01: They released a statement that said,
23:40
SPEAKER_01: Mrs. Trump does not and has never had a relationship with Mr. Kremlev.
23:45
SPEAKER_01: Mrs. Trump played no role whatsoever in organizing the wedding event.
23:49
SPEAKER_01: As if that wasn't enough, Eric weighed in.
23:56
SPEAKER_01: A spokesperson for Eric Trump said Eric has absolutely no clue who this person is
24:01
SPEAKER_01: nor has never heard his name.
24:03
SPEAKER_01: Nor has never heard his name.
24:05
SPEAKER_01: Then another spokesperson added Eric is neither a friend nor does he know who this person is.
24:12
SPEAKER_01: Now, Eric didn't meet him because he was busy chasing a seagull who stole his bag
24:17
SPEAKER_01: of Funyuns on the island.
24:19
SPEAKER_01: Everyone is denying,
24:20
SPEAKER_01: even Eric is denying he knows a man he spent a whole weekend on an island with in
24:26
SPEAKER_01: a party of less than 50 people.
24:28
SPEAKER_01: This poor Umar, he paid all his money.
24:31
SPEAKER_01: They barely let him in the photo.
24:33
SPEAKER_01: Look, this is the group,
24:34
SPEAKER_01: Gilligan,
24:35
SPEAKER_01: couple of gingers,
24:36
SPEAKER_01: the millionaires and their wives, and way in the back, you got Umar.
24:43
SPEAKER_01: They stuck him in the back like he was drunk in a catering cart.
24:49
SPEAKER_01: Let me just recap for you here.
24:51
SPEAKER_01: A Russian oligarch named Umar Kremlev,
24:53
SPEAKER_01: who is so close to Putin,
24:55
SPEAKER_01: Putin awarded him the order of friendship,
24:57
SPEAKER_01: spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on the president's son's wedding,
25:01
SPEAKER_01: a gift they tried to hide by running the money through an account in Dubai,
25:05
SPEAKER_01: and they aren't embarrassed at all.
25:07
SPEAKER_01: Remember when Republicans spent 20 months investigating Hunter Biden's laptop
25:10
SPEAKER_01: because they were worried about family members selling foreign access?
25:14
SPEAKER_01: Guys, I think I got a hot lead for you.
25:30
SPEAKER_02: Thanks for the songs for this week's episode from Golden Earring and The Beatles.
25:34
SPEAKER_02: And thanks to the clips and excerpts from John Oliver,
25:37

26:05
SPEAKER_00: Shalobi's very weak.
26:08
SPEAKER_00: Very sort of low IQ individuals.
26:10
SPEAKER_00: I thought they were smart,
26:11
SPEAKER_00: but they're turning out to be very stupid and very weak when it comes to
26:16
SPEAKER_00: a little thing that our economy sort of likes called AI.
26:25
SPEAKER_00: And it's only two letters,
26:28
SPEAKER_00: but it's the whole ballgame right now for our market,
26:32
SPEAKER_00: for our future in terms of Tech,
26:37
SPEAKER_00: and also technology, as well as technological things.
26:43
SPEAKER_00: Now we used to, you know, AI has sort of evolved faster than really anybody thought.
26:48
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I thought it, but not too many people were on top of it the way I was.
26:52
SPEAKER_00: It started, it was a black basketball player, remember?
26:55
SPEAKER_00: Just a little black basketball player wearing baggy shorts.
26:59
SPEAKER_00: Very thuggish, very popular with African Americans.
27:04
SPEAKER_00: And, you know, that was the phase of AI.
27:09
SPEAKER_00: And very big in Philadelphia,
27:12
SPEAKER_00: you know, which is, you know, surprising because it's not too tech in Philly.
27:16
SPEAKER_00: And then it evolved.
27:17
SPEAKER_00: All of a sudden you're watching TV several years ago and Common,
27:21
SPEAKER_00: this person Common was talking all about AI.
27:25
SPEAKER_00: But I said, what the hell does Common know?
27:26
SPEAKER_00: You know, it's one of the worst names in rap.
27:29
SPEAKER_00: And I should know good things about rap because I've been accused of rap 19 times,
27:35
SPEAKER_00: which is a lot, by the way, so I know rap.
27:39
SPEAKER_00: But then all of a sudden,
27:40
SPEAKER_00: it started becoming very popular with autistic white people who were sort
27:47
SPEAKER_00: of mean-spirited, which you really don't find too often.
27:50
SPEAKER_00: But these people, they loved, oh boy, did they love their tech and their AI.
27:56
SPEAKER_00: And all of a sudden we started seeing things like
28:01
SPEAKER_00: Chachipiti
28:03
SPEAKER_00: and also
28:08
SPEAKER_00: Nivea.
28:09
SPEAKER_00: I think they used to make like lotions and now they do chips.
28:12
SPEAKER_00: So you have all these companies making trillions of dollars, which is even more than millions.
28:20
SPEAKER_00: Not a lot of people in that, but it's true.
28:22
SPEAKER_00: It's a big number.
28:24
SPEAKER_00: And so...
28:25
SPEAKER_00: They talk about destroying the world that's going to kill us all.
28:29
SPEAKER_00: I'm, how old am I?
28:31
SPEAKER_00: 80 years old?
28:33
SPEAKER_00: You think I'm going to be here for all the death?
28:36
SPEAKER_00: I mean, I'm doing the best I can to sort of, you know, kill as many now.
28:41
SPEAKER_00: So I don't miss all the fun.
28:42
SPEAKER_00: You know, I don't want to miss the fun.
28:43
SPEAKER_00: Human destruction is sort of a turn on for me.
28:46
SPEAKER_00: So I don't want to miss it.
28:47
SPEAKER_00: So I'm trying to do something right now.
28:49
SPEAKER_00: I'm not gonna be around for AI to destroy everything,
28:52
SPEAKER_00: so I just wanna use the stock market,
28:56
SPEAKER_00: get wealthy,
28:57
SPEAKER_00: destroy the environment, and let the weirdos kill us all, because it's sort of fun.
