• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Fundamental principles of freedom, rational self interest, and individual runs.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: This is the ran Brook Show. All right, everybody, welcome
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: to your one book show on this Wednesday, September tenth.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: A day earlier in the day, I thought, huh not
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: not what news going on? What am I going to
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: talk about today? It turns out there's a lot of news.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: All right, let's just jump right in and start with
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: this horrific story out of Utah at a what looks
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: like a student rally at Udah State University. Charlie Cooke,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: the founder of Turning Point USA, was shot just a
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: few minutes ago, it appears, and it's not clear how badly,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: how badly he is heard, although there is very graphic
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: video online that that basically shows the moment of impact
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: of the bullet and and and and the bullet hit
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: him in the neck and blood just spurts out of
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: his neck. Uh So it is it is really hard
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: to believe. I mean, I don't know how he survived.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: If he survived it, I don't know how. Somebody must
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: have given him medical attention really really quickly. If he's not,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: you know, if if he's uh, I hope I hope
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: that he is going to survive this. You all know
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: I'm a huge Charlie Cooke a critic, but I also
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: know Charlie Cook personally, and and they knew him when
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: he was much younger and have followed his career. Admire
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: much of what he's done in the sense of his
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: ambition and the scope of what he's achieved, and very
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: critical of him in terms of his ideas, in terms
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of his philosophy. Uh and in terms of the direction
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: he's taken. But the idea that somebody gets shot over
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: their ideas in the United States of America, well, it's
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: happened before, and we've lived through it before. Seeing it
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: happen now here today is super scary. I mean, it's
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's super scary. It's it's horrifically disgusting. I'm
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: not going to tell you to pray for Charlie Cook,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: because I don't believe in praying, But suddenly my thoughts
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: are with him, and I really hope he suffsed this.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: He's also a young father. There's just no excuse for this.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: And given everything I'm seeing and and we'll talk some
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: of the things we'll talk about later on the show.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Today there really seems to be a growing appetite for violence,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: for political violence in America. Really, this has been I
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: think growing suddenly since the first Trump administration, but suddenly
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: since Black Lives Matter riots that happened in twenty twenty
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: that in essential legitimized political violence in this century. And
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: both on the left and on the right, this seems
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: to be an increasing appetite for this and an increased
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: sanction of this. While this shooting by Charlie coocus of
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cook has been and by the way, the shooter
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: has been arrested, has been arrested. This video of him
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: being handcuffed by police, I assume that is the shooter.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I assume people know that that is a shooter. So
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I certainly again hope Charlie survives. But this has been
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: condemned by pretty much everybody on left and right. But
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: there's a real edge to the commentary on the right
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: and a real okay, they want a civil war, they
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: want violence, will give them violence kind of attitude. And
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: of course I think this is more fodder for the
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Trump administration to engage in even more aggressive action against
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the left. Assuming assuming this, I think the assumption is
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: not crazy that the shooter is a left is too,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: is trying to silence Charlie Cook. This will give the
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Truman administration even more more reason, more excuse to send
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: troops into various places to violate individual rights, to monitor,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: to monitor people's behaving, and just to reduce our freedom.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I think anytime anytime there's violence, anytime there's an episode
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: of violence, is a potential reason an excuse for government
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: to step in and use it as an excuse to
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: violate rights to increase its power. Whether it's a war,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: the violence stakes a form of for war, the violence
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: stakes a form of domestic violence, or even more so,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: political violence. America has resisted much of that, particularly with
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: regard to domestic political violence. Certainly, the nineteen sixty saw
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of political violence, much more than we're seeing today,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: and we did not go. We did not, you know,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: completely abandoned the American system. As a consequence, I don't
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: know if our system is robust enough to withstand another
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: bout like the nineteen sixties of this kind of violence,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: if people are going to be shot for their political
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: for their political philosophical, their cultural views. Of course, there
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: was the assassination of Temple Trump, which were pretty amateuristic.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: And now this but also you know, this is Chris Ruffo,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: just to give you a flavor of the tone right
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: from mister Christopher Ruffo, who's becoming more and more, I
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: don't know what you'd call it, more and more committed
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: to right wing takeover, in a right wing imposing itself
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: on the country. Christopher writes the psychotic trans shooter gunning
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: down Catholic kids in Minneapolis, the psychotic black homeless man
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: stabbing the beautiful woman in Charlotte, and now an assassination
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: attempt at Charlie Cooke. The reckoning we need is more
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: profound than you can imagine. He didn't mention the assassination
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of two was it Minnesota Democrats by a Republican who
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: went to their homes and shotgun point blank? No, a
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Republican wouldn't mention that. So and the many other, the
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: many other violence committed by the right. But that's not
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: the point. The point is that there is violence. And
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to equate the psychotic black homeless man stabbing the beautiful
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: woman as Charlotte, we'll talk about this later, but to
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: equate that to political violence, that's not political violence. There's
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: nothing political about that. It really is disgusting how that
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: murder is being used for politics, and understandably because of
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: the way George Floyd's death was used for politics, although
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: there's a fundamental difference which the right refuses to grasp
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: between the two. Again, we'll get to that when we
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: talk about the stabbling in Charlotte. But really horrific. I
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: don't encourage you to watch the video close up video
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: of Charlie getting getting shot. It is bruto, it's very unpleasant.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: It's I watched it, I guess accidentally, and it's uh,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: you know, it's flashing in front of my eyes as
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I talk to you. It really is horrific, you know.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: And I can already imagine what he's going through, right,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I know what it's like to stand up
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: in front of a crowd. Uh, And and and I
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: don't know what it's like to be shot in front
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: of a crowd. That that is pretty that is pretty horrific. Anyway,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: it's not good. It's not good for culture, it's not
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: good for the world in which we live in. And
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: and it's it's the response to this is not going
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: to be healthy. The responsor to this is only going
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: to exacerbate the the conflict between the sides. Uh, nothing
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: good is going to come of this. A lot of bad.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: There's a potential for a lot of bad to come
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: of it. And we will see, we will see how this,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: how this pans out, and how this develops again. I
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: hope Charlie. I hope Charlie suffice it. That is there's
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: the main thing right now. I hope they got the bastard.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: It looks like they did. It looks like they got him.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: And uh, yeah, I don't I don't know. It's yeah,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I've got the video right in front of me and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: just turned it up before the key mome because it is.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: It is brutal. So yes, we're in a very precarious
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: situation in the United States right now, and it is.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: It is scary, and I want to watch and see
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: how everybody responds to this and whether we see any
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: kind of cooling off of this kind of violence, or
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: whether we see it stepped up and intensified and uh,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and accelerated violence is not going to solve this problem.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: A civil war will be a massive disaster for this country.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I nobody will achieve anything through it. Violence will not
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: achieve anything. There is no political entity in the United
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: States day that would be fighting for freedom and and
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: and for something positive. Chris Rufo thinks that the right
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: is good and the right is right, but the right
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: is not good. The right we have today is not good.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: And replacing all our cultural institutions, replacing the left with
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: the right that has exist today, is not going to
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: put us in a better position, is not going to
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: improve the world. But the world is a pretty horrible
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: place because of what the left has done to our
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: various institutions. So you know, at the end of the day,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: I want to remind everybody and that it is ideas
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: to shape the world. It's ideas to shape the world.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: And you can replace one rotten set of ideas with
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: another rotten set of ideas, and you're not going to
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: go anywhere. You're going to continue descent into one form
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: of hell or another form of hell. If you want
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: to improve the world, if you want to make the
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: world a better place, if you want to improve a
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: quality of life, a standable living, if you want to
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: improve the culture, if you want to live in a
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: great life, embracing life, sustaining culture, it is life's standing
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: and life embracing ideas you must support, you must embrace.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: At the end of the day, the revolution is needed
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: is a cultural revolution, ideological revolution, a philosophical revolution, a
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: philosophical revolution. And unless we fight what is going on
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: in the world right now with an alternative philosophy, with
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: better ideas, with solutions to problems, rather than with hatred
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: and with fear and with violence again, the world will
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: descend in one form of hell or another. You know,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: people have asked over the last few days where I
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: think we're heading towards a dark ages. I don't. I
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: still think we can avoid it. But yeah, but you know,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: some of this, some of this is it could really mean,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: this kind of violence, could really mean that we're descending
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: into a really bad situation in the United States. Whether
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: there's other places in the world to go to, I
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: don't know, but the United States could be in deep,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: deep trouble in the years and in the decades to come.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I'll talk more about the insanity and the left at
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: the end of the show. I was going to talk
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: about the Democratic Party and the problem it has with
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: its crazy left. We don't know again, exactly who shot
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cook. We don't know exactly what happened. But under
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: the assumption that it's some leftist that did this, that
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: all link nicely into that a link nicely, it is
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: not the right word. Let a link into the discussion
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: that we will that we will have towards the end
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: of the show about the Democratic Party it's state today
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: in the the impossible situation that the better people in
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, and they all good people will better
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: people at least in the Democratic Party find themselves, they
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: find themselves an impossible really an impossible situation. All right,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: let's see, all right, yes, let's uh, let's keep going
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: with the program. And if there's news, if you guys
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: see anything in the news about this, let me know.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: If anything about the shooter comes out, let me know,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: if anything about Charlie's condition comes out, let me know.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: I'll also try to keep like a Twitter, my Twitter
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: feed open so I can I can see, but I'm
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: I'm monitoring a lot of different things. Hees it's going
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: to be hot. But but yeah, I'll trust you guys
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: to keep me informed about anything anything relevant that is
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: coming out. Yeah, I mean, much more appropriate than what
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Chris Ruffo mentioned in terms of the left's violence because
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: I don't consider the the killing of the Ukrainian woman
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: an expression of political violence. Maybe the most important example
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: of political violence is the killing of Brian Thompson, the
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: United Healthcare CEO. That murder is maybe more indicative of
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: the Left's growing appetite for violence, and the support that
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: the murderer has received is really scary, spooky, disgusting, horrific
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: and uh, something that is basically going to doom the
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Left completely if it doesn't, if it doesn't change its ways.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: As long as the Left supports as long as the elements,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: significant elements, that's apport Hamas, that's support the shooting of
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Brian Thompson, and then now we'll support the shooting of
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cook. And I'm sure there will be a lot
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: of them. The Left is hopeless and the Democratic Party
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: without excising the part that is promoting this kind of violence,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is you know, it is is suicidal
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: and and unsolvagable unless it can excise this element, just
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: like the Republican Party without excising MAGA is useless and hopeless.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: All right, Um, what is true? Timpole says, sources saying
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Charlie is stable. That's good news. I mean, I mean,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I think the main thing, given the kind of injury
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: he received, I think the main thing here is is
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: a loss of blood. Right, you know, this did not
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: destroy any major organs. I hope it didn't hit his spine,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: but it did it did you know, upture a major
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: uttery and it looked like a lot of letter spillings.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: So the main thing for Charlie, I think is is
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: a loss of blood and uh and and whether they
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: stopped that and managed to give him effusion fast enough.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: So that is that is the real question. All right,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Let's see, Let's hope Tempole's sources are correct. Of course,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: his sources better than mind I have known. And these things,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: all right, we will talk about we will talk more
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: about this at the end of the show when we
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: talk about the Democratic Party. Let's shift now to what
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I thought was going to be the lead story today,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: and what I thought was was a very war resome development.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Maybe the most war resome development is is the what
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: happened in Poland overnight, and that is the fact that
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: several Russian drones, primarily surveillance drones, although there is there
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: is at least one, there's some indication of at least
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: one suicide drone was also located in Poland. The number
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: of Ukrainian of Russian reconnaissance drones entered into Poland. They
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: entered deep into Poland, quite far into western Poland, both
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: north of Warsaw and south west southeast of Warsaw. They
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: went all the way southeast of Warsaw and a number
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: of drones came in. NATO was alerted. NATO planes were
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: put in the air, including F thirty fives from the
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Netherlands and F sixteen from Poland, that shut down the drones.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Shut down the drones over Poland. This is the first time.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: While there'll been cases where drones of broken through airspace,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: there's been cases where Russian airplanes have kind of tested
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: the boundaries of NATO. This is the first time where
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: a significant number of drones, a significant number of Russian
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: systems have actually penetrated a NATO country and actually entered
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: the NATO country. NATO has exercised. I guessed. Article four
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: they call it. Article four is of the of the
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: NATO Treaty. Article four is it directs the North Atlantic
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Council to begin immediately defense and military consultations. So Article four,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: consistent with kind of the West and with consistent with
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Western bureaucracy modern European bureaucracy. Article four basically sets up
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: a committee to study what's going on and so immediate
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: defense of military consultations for emergencies or situations of emergency.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Uh and it is triggered when quote the territory, integrity,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: political independence, or security of any of the part parties
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: is threatened. Even Donald Trump was a little surprised by
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: the infiltration of these Russian drones into into Poland. I
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: mean Trump is quoted as saying, what's with Russia violating
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Polish airspace? So this is a major incident. It could
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: very well involve now you know, Russia's claiming that these
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: drones were steered off course, off the course that they
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: were taking by Ukrainian electronics. This is not credible given
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: the depth in which they went, given the location where
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: the drones are. Some of the drones were launched on Belarus.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Belarus is not launched drones against Ukraine. There's every reason
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: I believe that this is a Russian test of NATO's response.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: This is a Russian test to see how NATO reacts.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Maybe they were measuring the speeder which the planes could
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: reach these drones. Maybe they were just seeing what kind
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: of political unity NATO had around this, whether what appetite
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: NATO might have for confrontation with Russia. It's hard to
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: tell what Moscow's intentions were. One thing is very clear.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: I know this is going to be controversial among many
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: of the people listening to the show. One thing is
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: very clear, and that is that since Putin meant with
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Trump in Alaska, Putin has acted in greater and greater,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: bolder and more bolder waves. That is, it is clear
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: that whatever Trump told Putin, whatever Trump did with Putin,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: whatever Trump verbally or now verbally you know, signaled to Putin,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Putin has viewed it as weakness. Putin is viewed it
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: as permission for him, sanctioned for him to escalate. Since
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: that meeting in Alaska, the number of attacks on civilians
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: in Ukraine has increased, the use of drones and missiles
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: has increased, the aggressiveness of Russia against Ukrainian infrastructure. The
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: thing that Trump was complaining about has only increased. We
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: now have this, I mean, Trump keeps saying that the
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: one Ukraine would have never happened if he was president. Well,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: this suggests otherwise. This suggests that Putin is not intimidated
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: by Trump. One bid that Putin is willing to at
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: least poke NATO when Trump is president because he believes
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: Trump's is weak and he believes Trump will do nothing.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: We still don't know exactly what the nature of the
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Trump Putin relationship is, but clearly it's not one in
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: which Putin is intimidated by Trump, or intimidated by America
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: or intimidated by NATO. So, uh, this is a interesting development.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: I don't think this is leading into World War three.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: I don't think Russia wants to actually go to war
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: with NATO again. I think this is prodding and testing
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: and gaining intelligence. But it is, without a question, without
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: a question, it is an escalation, and it is something
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: to watch, and it's uh, you know, it's not good.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: It's not good, you know. I certainly do not want
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: to see the war expanded, the work expanded, you know
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: a number. It turns out that a couple of unknown
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: aircraft was a detected entering Lithuania this morning at ten am. UH.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: The aircraft being aircraft were scrambled, but the objects were
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: not intercepted. UH, and surveillance on going to determine if
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: they landed or exactly what they were doing in Lithuania space.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: So there was there was a lot going on with
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: regard to uh, you know, with regard to this. UH.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: And I don't know that we will ever know the
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: entire story. I don't know if we know it now.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: But you know, NATO's on high alert. Uh. You know,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: we had Italian a waxes in the air, German Patriot
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: missiles on on high alerts and of course they're Polish
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: and the Dutch Force knocking down some of these drones. Uh. Again,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: I don't expect this to escalate. Uh, but it's hard
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: to tell. In the meantime, Trump is urging Europe to
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: place high tariffs on China and on India as penalty
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: for them continuing to buy oil from Russia. Trump has
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: not imposed sanctions on Russia yet. Uh, there've been there's
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: been no movement of Trump to penalize Russia for everything
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: that it's done, and for the fact that Putin has
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: basically ignored, completely ignored or Trump's or basically snubbed Trump's
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: efforts at some kind of meeting between Zelenski and Putin
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: at some kind of peace deal, ceasefire deal. Putin has
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: basically told everybody to go to hell, and he is
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: continuing with his war. So I don't know how this
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: plays out. It's very difficult to tell what Putin's sakes
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: move is. This is surprising to me. You wouldn't think
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: that Putin wants antagonist the I think if if Poland
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: was involved in the war, never mind NATO, Uh yeah,
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, Russia would be toast, it would be history.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: But NATO could annihilate the Russian army with you know,
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: short of nuclear weapons within days. I don't think Putin
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: wants a test. I don't think he wants it. But
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: maybe maybe he thinks he's stronger than he really is.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Maybe thinks he's stronger than he really is. We will see.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: I talk about another murder, and I don't know that.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cooks is it's an attempted murder, but you know,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know that it actually it doesn't look like
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: he's died, or at least not yet, and let's hope
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: he doesn't. But the stabbing in of a young Ukrainian
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: refugee in the United States, uh, there was basically video
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: of it was released this this weekend has really created
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: quite a political stone. It is. Uh. It is basically
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: shown the left uh as being willing to excuse violence
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: as long as it's black on white violence. Uh and
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: and to excuse it and justify it and and uh
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: and and basically shrug it off. And it's shown the
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: right as uh being willing to use this particular event.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: But I think more broadly black on white violence. Uh
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: two uh tim based racist theories, tim based racism more
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: broadly uh and and to to create fear mongering around
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: a race war in the United States. Uh uh. And
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: you've seen the Trump administration, of course, leap on this
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: opportunity to highlight its so called lawnoda platform to highlight
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: all the crime happening in democratic in democratic districts or
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: democratic areas of the country and jumps on this is
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: a great pr opportunity, which I think is a sad, tragic, pathetic, horrible.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, violent crime like this happens tragically in the
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: United States every day. It's only going to create real
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: resonance in the public when it's black on white or
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: white on black. If white skill whites, nothing happens. If
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: black skill blacks. I don't think anybody cares. It is
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: latched on by the various racist groups in this country,
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: whether of the fall Left or the fall right, to
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: justify whatever agenda they happen to have, and in this case,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: again it's going to be justified by Trump to embrace
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: a a more a kind of law and order agenda
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: that ultimately, I wouldn't be surprised involved the significant violation
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: of individual rights, the significant restrictions of our rights more broadly.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: So you know, you've probably been following the story. But
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: the story is a black man who is who has
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: been in a charge many, many many times by the
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: criminal justice system, sat in jail for five years for
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: armed robbery and it was recently recently called up nine
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: one one, you know, claiming that somebody had planted a
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: chip in his brain and was making him do you know,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: making him do hubble things, that he was out of
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: control and there was a chip in his brain. And
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: ultimately when the police came, they said something police can do.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: This is a medical issue. He needs to talk to
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: medical profession and there was some scuffle around that, and
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: ultimately he was arrested in charge with a misdemeanor charge
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: of abusing the nine to one one system. Now, you know,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: this thing with a chip in the brain is something
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: that there are a lot of schizophrenics out there who
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: really hold this or believe this about themselves or believe
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: it about other people. And you know, this guy who
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: was obviously seriously mentally ill, he's a serious schizophrenic. He's
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: a crazy person, a real crazy person. Whatever color skinny has,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: this guy's nuts and that is where they focus should be.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: This is not a Democrat Republican thing. It is a
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: question of what do you do with really, really really
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: mentally ill people who are, because of their mental illness
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: potentially violent but might not have been vilan yet, but
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: unstable doing crazy things. Is it legitimative a state to
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: lock people like that up in mental institutions as we
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: used to do, And when is a legitimate How do
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: we determine when somebody is reaches a point where they
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: need to be locked up because of their mental condition.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Now I'm all for longer sentences violent criminals, or for
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: longer sentences for property crime, for burglary and you know,
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: and stealing stuff, but it is not a part is
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: an issue, this question about what to do with the
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: mental leal it's not like red states have solved this problem.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: It's not like red states have laws with regard to
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: what to do with this. Ultimately, this happened in North Carolina, which,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: while in a blue city, it is a red state.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: There's no state law in North Carolina that says that
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: you should institutionalize people who might be violent. Now, I think,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: ultimately that is the solution. That was the solution before
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: the nineteen eighties, when the mental institutions in the United
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: States were opened up and everybody was released from them,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: the system had probably been abused in the pre nineteen eighties.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: That is, a lot of people were sent to mental
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: institutions that probably should not have been sent. So it
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: has to be vigorously monitored, it has to be vigorously
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: enforced in terms of who goes. But it strikes me
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: that people think there's a chip in their brain. And indeed,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: he told this guy when his mother asked him or
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: sister asked him why he killed this girl, he said
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: that he didn't know that his body just did it.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: That the chip in the brain and the programming just
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: did it. Now it could be exposed rationalization, But he
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: has no chip in the brain. But it could be
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: him consciously kind of coming up with an excuse, but
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: he said this chip, you know, somebody else was controlling him.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: It wasn't him. He would never do this. He said,
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: it was horrible what happened. Now, after he killed her,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: he said something like, I killed the white girl. And
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: of course everybody's taking that to mean that he did
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: it because she was white. Not obvious to me that
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: that's what he was doing. He was just identifying what
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: he had done. Again, he's crazy, you know, and and
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: that needs to be dealt with us. He told is
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: mother sister that he did it because she was in
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: another part of their discussion. I guess all this is
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: taped that she was listening into his thoughts. I mean,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: a guy's nuts and crazy people, crazy people who have
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: shown already any clinician towards violence should be locked up
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: in mental institutions until they show that they're not crazy anymore.
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: But again, that is not a that is now. I'm
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: sure Democrats will oppose that, but it's not a red
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: blue thing. No state has that, No state has that law,
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: you know. On the other hand, the left is like,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: you know, we don't know why he did it. We
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: don't know why he did it. He's a sick man.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Nothing to see here, no conclusions to come to, nothing
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: to analyze here. Nothing about the culture is broken, nothing
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: about mental illness is broken. Nothing about the justice system.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: The justice system is broken. No, no, no, nothing to
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: see here. Let's just move on. It's sad that it happened,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: should have happened, But of course if a white man
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: kills a black then that systemic racism. So the you know,
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: the attitude of the left is completely disgusting, particularly potht BLM, right.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, there was no even if Derek chavan who
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: I think, you know, you know, killed Floyd and it
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: shouldn't have killed him. There's no reason, no excuse for
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: him to have killed him. There's no reason to believe
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: that Derek Chavon did it because Judge Floyd was black.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, the reason that Judge Floyd case was more
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: interesting and more important than this is because it was
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: about police abuse. And BLM had been about police abuse,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: I would have been sympathetic the police. The number of
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: cases where police have killed people for no good reason,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: including white people and black people. And there's a real
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: problem about police training and the ability of police to
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: handle difficult situations violence. You can say a lot about
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: the shape in which policemen are in physically and whether
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: they are equipped physically and mentally to be able to
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: deal with the kind of situations they're thrown into. That
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: is a debate discussion worth having. Absolutely, instead judge Floyd,
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: instead of turning on the issue of police abuse, became
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: an issue of systemic racism, which it was not indicative
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: of at all and had nothing to do with, and
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: that whole situation was, as a consequence, you know, blown up.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Van Jones on CNN says, we don't know why that
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: man did what he did. This man was hurting hood.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: People hurt people, and it's like brushing it off. People
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: are hurting like this. Something needs to be done, something,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: There has to be a way to pamp this. I mean,
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: you cannot excuse the behavior of people who are struggling
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: because they're struggling. Doesn't excuse. It doesn't give this permission
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: and it doesn't it does not free from responsibility the
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: criminal justice system that allowed this nutcase, this person who
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: was hurting out into the streets to be free. So
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: instead of Van Jones and the left introspecting and thinking
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: about this and offering solutions and thoughts about what to
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: do about the mental illness that is prevalent among homeless
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: people that often results in violence. Yeah, hurt people, hurt people,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: hurt people. You know that that is that's the sound bite.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: That's the sound bite they come up with at the
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: flip side, of course, is to turn this into a
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: racist issue. Now, I don't think there is a racist issue.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: I think the racist issue here is that the left
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: turns turned George Floyd into a racial issue, and you know,
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: we still have it. I guess recovered from that. This
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: is god Saad writing about this. For example, godside from
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: the right a society that burns neighborhoods and calls for
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: the funding of the police for the guy, for George Floyd,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: and largely ignores the public. Butchering of the woman on
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: the right is one that is drowning, and a picture
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: of the Ukrainian go is one that is drowning in
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: the infinite pool of suicidal empathy. And I think that's right.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: But there is a difference. There is a difference, and
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: the difference is this George Floyd was killed by the police.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: The issue of the George Floyd murder, not that it
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: justifies voting anything, but the issue of the George Floyd
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: murder should have been and was for many of US
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: police brutality. The issue with the goal being murdered is, Yeah,
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: they're crazy people who do crazy, nutty, insane things. It's
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: a dangerous world where you leave these people free in
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: the streets. But it's not about the police. It's not generalizable.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: There's nothing I mean. The generalization here is about what
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: to do with mentally ill people. That's not a conversation
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: anybody wants to have. By the way, it's not a
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: conversation the right wants to have, and it's not a
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: conversation on the left wants to have. Stephen Crowder tweets
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: White America, you just found your George Floyd. Always supposed
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: to be more offended at George Floyd situation than irenias,
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: because I sure as hell am not no the mosquito.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: Did I get him? Hope? So anyway, I'm constantly in
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: this room in a battle of mosquitoes, all right. I
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be more offended at George Floyd situation
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: in the arenas because I'm in the hell am not
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: arena didn't live a life harming those around her. Yeah,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: George Floyd was not a good guy. Arena seems to
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: be a good person. But again, George Floyd was killed
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: by the police. If that was indicative of police brutality,
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: that was an issue worth investigating. Arena killed by a
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: crazy person. White crazy persons with an inclination of violence
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: in the streets would looking into it. Yes, but this
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: is not about whites and it's not about black Now.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: The left has made it about white and black, and
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: now the right is making it about white and black.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: So not only are we to have political violence seems
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: to be escalating. What we're seeing now is basically a
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: call for a race war. Joe Webbin. Joe Webbin a
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: preacher from I think it's north of Dallas community, one
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: of these o megachurches. Uh, and somebody who is uh.
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: You know, I've talked about it in the past because
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: he is a known antisemite and a real racist. Anyway,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: Joel says, a race war is coming. A race war
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: is coming. So the right is calling for a race war.
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: The left can only think in terms of race. Not
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: a healthy situation to be in in this country. I mean,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: a very very, very dangerous position for us to be in.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, granted, this Texas Pasta is a nutcase, but
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: he's very popular. He's a leader within the Christian nationalist movement.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: He believes Jews should be second class citizens in the
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: United States. He believes Jews should not be able to
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: hold public office. They can live in the United States peacefully,
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: but he says, this is Christian nation, and those who
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: are just christ and hate Christ, they can be in
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: the car and we shouldn't mistreat them, but they don't
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: get to drive the car. And he would like to
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: see them all leave anyway, if at all possible. We
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: talked about this on another show. You want to blame somebody,
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Blame the criminal justice system. You want to blame somebody,
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: blame the fact that this country has not come to
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: terms with what to do with these, you know, with
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: with with crazy people who you know, who's susceptible to violence.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: This is not about race. This is not about race,
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: all right. The the this video of the led shooter,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: the uh, the guy who shot Charlie Krook as he's
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: being taken away by police, supposedly yelling shoot me shoot
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: me again. Another nut? Really, God, really, horrific. The these
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: people are out there. Let me just see what what
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: this source is saying. So Charlie Cook has a private
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: security team. He was rushed to a car, so you know,
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: since he has a private security team, he might have
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: gotten very fast, very fast medical care. And again, let's hope,
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: let's hope that was it. I don't know. Two minutes ago,
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: there's video saying the video earlier is claimed to show
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: the shooter has been deleted because police have confirmed that
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: the actual shooter is not yet in custody. Police have
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: determined the demand seen being taken into custody earlier following
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: the shooting of Charlie Cooke at Utah Value University in
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: or In, Utah, was not actually the shooter. According to
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: a spokesman for the Utah Valley, it is unclear if
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: the shooter is in custody. A official with Turning Point
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: USA told CBS News, Charlie Cook is at the hospital
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: after being shot in the neck. But it doesn't look good.
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cook's in critical condition after being shot in the neck. Yeah,
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: just showing more videos. I don't want to see the video.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: I saw it earlier. Charlie Cooke was shot by a
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: rifle from two hundred yards more snipers. God, all right, yeah,
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: I mean this is really really really horrible, really horrible.
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: There's the footage again. I keep seeing it. I keep
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: not even able to avoid the actual footage of him
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: being shot. All right, so we might not have the shooter.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: I keep seeing conflicting messages. But this is from four
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: minutes ago. Ware, he's saying that it's not the shooter.
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: It was not the guy in the video earlier that
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: was identified. So we will see, we'll see. All right.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: Let me remind people that the show is made possible
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: by contributions of you. The watch up without you on
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: YouTube and on the podcast, I couldn't do this show. Uh.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: And right now we've got a lot of people watching
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: because of the breaking news. I'd appreciate the supports. If
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: you've come here, you must find some value in what
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: I present, how I present it, And I'd appreciate value
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: for value. Uh. You know, show you know, trade with me,
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: be a trader. Uh. And you can do that with
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: a question, a super chat question, or you can do
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: that with a sticker, just just by including a a
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: a like Savanas just did an amount of money without
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: a without a question associated with it would would have
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: the same the same effect, So it would also be
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: a show of support for the show, So please consider
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: doing that. Uh, it's it's how we fund this show.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: There's no other funding. I mean there's there's some sponsors,
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: but but it's that is a small port port small
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: part of the show's funding. Most of it comes from
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: you guys. So you guys have to step forward and
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: be traders. All right, Let's see if I can. I
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: need to copy some of these super chats because my
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: I didn't turn on the super chat tracker early enough
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: in the show and I've missed some, so I apologize.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: Let me just focus on this for a second. Oh god, right,
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: how does this work? Right? Let's see. Let me just
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: check the news one more time. Uh yeah, nothing new
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: yet on the shooter, who he is and whether he
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: is in custody or not. I hope he's in custody.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: I hope they got him and that they get him
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: really really soon. Let's see. But it does Yeah, as
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: we said earlier, this does not bode well for all
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: of us, for this country, and for instance, Okay, let's
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: move on. I wanted to cover the story from South
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: Carolina about a new bill coming before the South Carolina legislature.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: This is a bill that's being proposed, so it can
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: still be fought, So any of you out there in
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: South Carolina, hopefully you will fight this. But it is
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: a bill that basically, you know, bans abortion in all
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: cases from time zero, so no exceptions, and basically from conception.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: It would make it very difficult. It would also significant
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: restrict access to the abortion pill and to even to contraception.
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, the war against abortion, the war against women,
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: the war against sacks, the war against contraception continues to
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: be like a super priority for the right. If you're
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: not sure about what motivates the right, this kind of
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: theocratic action, I think illustrates that the religious right is
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: really motivated by religion, really motivated by religion. It's not
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: a pretend. Now in South Carolina, they've tried to pass
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: very restrict of emotion laws in the past since over
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years, and they have failed, and
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: they keep trying again. This one has sent it built
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: three two three. It's called the Unborn Child Protection Act.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: It would appeal comment safeguards on the state's comment six
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: week abotion band, which is bad enough. It would change
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: the definitions and will create a new implications for even
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: contraception and fertility treatments, like in virtual fertilization. In spite
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: of Trump being pro in virtual MAGA and the religious
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: right are very very opposed in virtual fertilization. I mean,
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: these fertilized, you know, are the human and therefore they
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: must be protected. So what this bill will create as
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: a total abortion band no exceptions, no exception for rate,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: no exception for incests, no exception for fetal anomaly. I mean,
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: to not allow an abortion for fetal anomaly. I mean
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: the cruelty of that, the cualty told the child that
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: will be born, is just astounding. But it's God's will.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: Who are we to who are we to change God's will?
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: I mean there's already massive restrictions in South Carolina. Already
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: South Carolina is you know, very very stringent in the
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: way it's enforcing these restrictions, and now they want to
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: make it significantly tougher. And notice, with everything going on
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: in the world, with all the issues, all the problems
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: including violence, including you know, the left dominance of institutions
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: and the economy, everything that's going on the people are
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: constantly complaining about what really gets a certain portion of Republicans,
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: what really gets the juices going, what really gets the motivated,
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: what really gets them excited, what really gets some past
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: it is restricting abortion. They want to criminalize it. Not
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: only would women who get an abortion be charged with
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: a criminal offense. God, this mosquito is playing with death,
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: but so far has escaped it. Sorry, guys, it kind
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: of hovers in front of my face looking for place
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: to bite, you know, so, I mean a what the
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: religious right is doing. We've talked about this with the
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: goat to abortion. What the religious right is doing is
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: placing the life, if you will, of a fetus, of
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: a clump of cells, if it's early enough, in the
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: pregnancy of a potential human being, of aotential human being,
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: ahead of the rights, dignity, life, life of an actual
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: human being, of an existing human being, not a potential
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: and existing the mother. The mother's alive, the mother gets
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: to decide what she does with her body. That's what
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: individual rights means. And the right is dedicated to violating
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: individual rights on a massive scale with its attacks on abortion,
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: the criminalizing of abortion. I think they've got thirty year
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: penalties for women who get abortion, and you know, similar
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: thirty year prisons sentences for doctors who might engage in abortion.
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: What this will mean is women will have to leave
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: the state, but it's not clear that way, but to
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: come back without he prosecuted it. You know, it's it's
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: probably as bad as the Texas laws that were seeing
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: but no, this is everywhere, there's the entire South Red states.
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: This again, is what they really really committed to. This
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: is what they're passionate about. And yeah, again, I'll keep
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: bringing to your attention these these abortion issues because I
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: think they're so egregious. You know, this further shows the
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: extent to which Hobbes was such a reversal of Rovers's ways.
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: Was such a horrible decision with such horrible consequences, and
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: how with such a really a terrible situation right now
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: as people who believe in freedom leave in liberty. As
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: we'll see, because I'll talk about this in a minute,
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: the left is crazy and it advocates for ideas that
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: are just horriable and clearly anti life and destructive, destructive
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: to human life in big ways. Oh God, almost had it.
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: It's staying too high. You're seeing the war live Uran
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: versus mosquito. Ah, that was close. God almost had it.
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: All right. We should make a short clip of me
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: trying to kill the mosquito. That'll go viral. Probably. We
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: really believe in in liberty, in freedom and individual rights.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: We've got a crazy right, a crazy right, an evil
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: right that not only wants to, you know, take away
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: women's rights to their own life, their own body. Yeah. Yeah,
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: I've crippled him. He's slowed down, no question about that.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: Once a race war has significant anti Semitic tendencies and
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: racist tendencies.
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: These are Russian drones, since sent sent by the Russian authorities.
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: It's sent by somebody. Every every every show, there's at
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: least one of these, and he's just staying out of reach. God. Yeah,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to take it out. God, I think I
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: think I pulled my shoulder. Doctor asked me, what did
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: you do? I was trying to kill a mosquito. I
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: need to bring I need to bring a spray. I
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: need to bring the anti mosquito spray and get it
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: that way. That would rely on my physical agility, which
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: is not what it used to be not what it
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: used to be. We've got a crazy right, homicidal right,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: and a crazy and homicidal left. And you know what
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: do you do? Well, We've got to get our ideas
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: out there. We've got to fight for real liberty. We've
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: got to fight for individual rights. And that means fighting
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: against racism, against anti semitism, anti semitism, were left and right,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: it means fighting for liberty and freedom. It means fighting
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: against the idea that you solve anything through violence, and
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: fighting for sanity, for freedom, for liberty, fighting for America,
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: resurrecting America. Okay, on either Saturday or Sunday this week,
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: I will do a show. The title will be what
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: is America? What are we gonna? What are we fighting for?
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: And we'll talk more about this on that show. But
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: the right and left of getting worse and worse and worse,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: and I don't know what we do what we do?
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: Friend of herper says, mosquitos everything to gain from uron book.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: Uron book has nothing to gain from killing a mosquito.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: It's not true. I have watched the gain from killing
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: a mosquito. God, all right, some more bad news about America.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: God today turned out to be even more bad news
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: than I thought it would. Just recently been released the
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: scores high American high school senior scores on math and
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: reading tests, and Americans are now scoring the worst I
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: guess they ever have scorn on these particular tests, which
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: are started in two thousand and five by the Bush administration,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: and reading which has a longer history, the students are
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: scoring below where it was in nineteen ninety two. Now,
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: no one these are scary issues. This is you'd think
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: that somebody really concerned with the state of America, somebody
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: really concerned scores not scorned. Somebody really concerned with the
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: state of America, somebody really concerned with the future of America,
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: would be horrified by the state of American education, would
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: be spending massive amounts of political capital on trying to
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: fix it. I think the only way to fix it
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: is to privatize it, to get rid of public education,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: government education, but at least the focus on it, to
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: think about it, to put resources behind it. In terms
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: of solving the problem. I mean, we're raising generations who
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: can read, can write, and can't do math. And people
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: are very concerned about very concerned about AI and can
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: we keep up with the Chinese. Well, we're not going
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: to be able to if this is the quality of
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: the students we're producing. This is what an educational system
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: is doing. Oh ship. So the latest breaking news, and
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: I assume this is true, that Charlie Cook has died.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: He was pronounced dead following the shooting. Again, if you
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: if you see the video, don't recommend it, you will
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: not be surprised by this. Uh that that the amount
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: of blood he lost from that shot was was, you know,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: so so traumatic that I can't even imagine surviving that. Anyway,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: It does look like and listless is news, but I
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: don't think so. That Charlie Cook has passed away, which again,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: while a rival, somebody had disagreed with somebody, I opposed
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: somebody in some ways I feared because I thought he
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: would gain a lot of political power in the future.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: This is not the way to resolve This is not
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: the way to resolve disputes. I knew Charlie when he
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: was seventeen. I met him when he was seventeen at
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: a coffee shop in Chicago. He was just starting Turning
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: Point USA. He believed that it would be a high
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: school student movement. He turned it into the fastest growing
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: and I think the largest university student groups and movement.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: Truly an amazing job in terms of going from nothing
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: to just exploding on the scene the way he did,
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: and just building an organization, building a culture, building a system. Again,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: I very much disagreed with Charlie the turn Charlie took
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen following Trump's election and his advocacy for
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: Trump's ideas and becoming kind of the lead spokesman certainly
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: among the young for those ideas. But I mean, you
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: gotta admire what he achieved and how articulate he was.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: Certainly in his early days. I bumped into him several
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: times in different conferences. He was heavily influenced by Iron Rand.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: He had read Iron Rand in high school, was in
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: those days a big fan of capitalism, and regularly gave
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: talks defending capitalism, many of those talks inspired by Ironran
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: and even by my morality of capitalism talk. You know,
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: the idea year that this is happening right now in America,
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: the idea that this is how we resolve disagreements or
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: disputes in America right now is really scary. And and
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: uh and and uh tragic and uh, you know, I'm
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: not sure what happens now. This this is not gonna
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: be good. I mean, you know, this is going to
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: be more than anything. This is going to be a
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: massive rallying call for the right. Uh. They're going to
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: be many people on the left who are going to
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: celebrate this. Imagine if they celebrated the killing of a
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: CEO of an executive of a of a health insurance company.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: Imagine what they're gonna do with the with the murder
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: of Charlie Cooke. This is going to be major celebration
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: among certain elements on the left. This is this is
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: really this is the beginning of I mean it's not
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: the beginning, but this is this is uh dark day
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: before us. Of course, any kind of more significant violence
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: is only going to encourage the Trump administration team pose
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: more of its kind of military style uh, law and order.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: Uh and and this will give them more and more
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: of an excuse to do exactly that. Uh And yeah,
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: you could you could see. I mean this is just
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: this is just you know, absolutely absolutely horrible and uh,
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: you know, again, shooter, as far as I can tell,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: the shooter has not been arrested, has not been captured.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see how quickly it does. Yeah,
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: here here's MSNBC. I mean, this is already starting, right MSNBC. Yeah,
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: I mean it's not m a CNBC, but it's a
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: commentated in MSNBC saying you can't stop with these awful
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: thoughts you have, and then saying these awful words and
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: then not expect awful actions to take place. In other words,
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: he had a coming is uh? Is uh? You know
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: what they are? What the left is already starting to claim,
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: and you'll hear more and more and more of that.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: It's just I'm gonna skip the last section of what
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: I was planning to talk about. We'll talk about We'll
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: talk about this later. We'll talk about that another time
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: or tomorrow. Yeah, I mean, I mean, Charlie was somebody
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: who went out there debated. He was somebody who put
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: himself out there at the forefront of these debates. This
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: this happened on a university campus as he was engaging
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: with students. If you've watched videos of him, and again
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: I don't agree with his ideas, but if you've watched
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: videos of him, he's often confronted and and has to
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: deal with had to deal with pretty contentious Q and
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: a's but uh, you know he was he was trying
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: to reach out to convince, uh and and engaging with
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: the other side. He was not hunkered down in some says.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: But uh, you know, it's just it just is, it's
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: just horrible. Nothing good will come of it, and much
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: evil will come of this. Much evil will come of it. Uh.
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of bad people out there who
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: are going to exploit this, uh for for for for
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: worse things. Yeah, I mean there's already you know MSNBC again,
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: I guess that's citing the same commentary I cited earlier
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: about this. All right, let's see. Yeah, right, it's in France.
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: We'll talk about that tomorrow. I'm just looking through my
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: news feed on Twitter to see what's breaking. I only
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: saw one source actually say that that he was indeed dead,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: So again it's it's not we just have one source
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: so far saying that he has passed away. I yeah,
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: Charlie was thirty one. He father and you relatively new father.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: NBC now is confirming that he No, NBC is not
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: confirming anything, all right, Yeah, I'm not I'm not seeing confirmation.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: But maybe it's out day. I don't know if you
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: guys are seeing confirmation. All right, I got the mosquito.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: That's good. She won't bother me anymore. And you're saying,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: you guys are seeing you're seeing multiple multiple sources. So yeah,
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: it looks like it's a it's it's reality. It's gonna
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: be interesting where we go from here. It is going
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: to be interesting. Yep. I mean, let's see.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 3: Uh uh.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, very Charlie was very pro Israel. I'll give him that.
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: And uh uh again. Van Jones is going out there
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: kind of blaming the victim here and that anybody is
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: justifying this is ridiculous. The better voices on the left
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: are are coming out and condemning this, but I don't
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: think they matter. I don't think the better voices on
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: the left matter. I think, you know, unless they really
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: really distanced themselves from the crazy left. Yeah, all right,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: Chris willfo again. The last time the radical left orchestrated
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: a waiver of violence and terror, Jared go Hoover shut
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: it down, all down within a few years. It is
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: time within the confines of the law. Well, that's good.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: At least Chris is talking about the law. It is time,
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: within the confines of law to infiltrate, to swew up
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: the rest and incartiate all those are responsible for this chaos. Yeah,
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: I mean I agree with that. I completely agree with that,
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: all right. I worry about the confines of the law
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: and whether how much that could be actually real. Yeah,
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: there's just no leadership. That's the problem. There's just no leadership,
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: Enwick says. After the Montin Luther King assassination, Robert Kennedy
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: confronted the rage to put out the flame? Is there
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: anyone now? Of course, Robert Kennedy was assassinated as well,
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: so you know, I don't. That's the problem. There's no leadership.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: There's no political leadership right now. There's no somebody who
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: can take the reins and actually lead. It's not Trump,
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: and there's nobody on the left who is in that position.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, yes, Governor Newsom has condemned this. If you
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: remember he interviewed Charlie. I think that was the first
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: interview he did on his show, which chose Charlie's willingness
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: to engage with the left. But you know, it's I'm
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: just looking, just liketing to see if there's anything coming.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not. Yeah, I'm not getting on my feeds anything
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: really new. All right, here's a BuzzFeed m Yeah, I
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: mean busfeed makes the announcement about Charlie Cook being killed
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: or being shot, and and people are like chewing this on.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: They're they're excited, they're thrilled, they're they're they're chewing this on.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: And and busfeed is not some radical left crazy place,
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: but this is this is the left that's celebrated I've
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: October seventh. This is the left that celebrated Luji Maggione.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: Uh and this is the left that will celebrate Charlie
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: Cooke's death. And uh, oh god. This is the problem them.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: I've got and and there are two of them, and
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: the left is the left will continue. Yeah, I mean
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: here's at MSNBC. Again he is constantly sort of pushing
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: the sort of hate speech aimed a certain groups, and
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: I always go back, yeah, so again, But all right,
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: I think I think that's that's where we are right now.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: I will take your questions just to remind you if
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: you're here because you gain some some kind of value
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: from this show. This show could not be possible without
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: support from you, from all of you listeners and you
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: can easily support the show. You go to patreon dot
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: com and become a monthly contributor. That's one way to
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: support the show. Another way to support the show is
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: is by you know, going on right now. It's by
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: going on right now on YouTube and either doing a
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: sticker or asking a question. I answer all the questions.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: If you want to make a comment in the super chat,
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: I'll ask. I'll answer all the comments in the super chat.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: But it's just a way of making sure the show
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: continues and and and show you show the support support
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: for it. Wall Stet Journal now reporting that he is dead,
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: So I don't think you'd get that from the wall
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: Streat Journal unless it was verified. So there it is. Yeah,
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: as I said, many of you are seeing the video.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: I suggest not watching the video. Don't watch the video.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: It's gruesome. It's gruesome and it's scary. There's just no
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: point in it. And the video is going to be
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: shown over and over and over again because that's what happens.
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: People relish this kind of stuff. But you know, Charlie
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: was engaging with students about transgender people when he was shot,
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: so it was doing kind of a Q and a
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: back and forth with the audience that this happened. I mean,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: this is gonna this is going to silence people. This
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: is going to cause people to be afraid to go
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: out in public and state their views and engage with
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: the public and engage in rigorous debate. And the challenge
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: we face, I think as a country, is that there
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 1: no adults. There no adults in the room who who
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: can quieten us down. There are no doubts in the
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: room who can bring sanity to the situation and get
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: people to back off from the complete insanity of political violence,
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: a path that we clearly seem to be heading towards,
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: a path of Again, I don't see how civil war
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: actually plays out in the United States, but I do
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: see the growth of political violence as an excuse for
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: the federal government to increase its power, increase its emergency powers.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: We know that this administration is very prone to declaring emergencies.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: You can see an emergency coming because of this violence,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: and it's very, very very hard to tell what the
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: outcome of such emergency powers will be and how they
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: will be used. So I really do think this is
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: potentially a very very very negative turning point in the
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: path this country is taking. All right, let me let
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: me thank Gianni and Mary Eleen for the for the stickers.
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: And I know there've been others, but you too can
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: support the show with stickers. They can be fifty dollars
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: like Wes. Thank you, Wes, Paul did five, others have
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: done one, two, three, So Steven, thank you for the sticker.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: So you know, many many ways to support the show. Bonnie,
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: thank you for that as well. And again, if you're here,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: it means you're probably getting some value for the show.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: Two hundred and seventy people are watching live right now.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: If you get some value from my analysis that you
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 1: come here when breaking news happens, I'd appreciate if you
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: show support trade trade with me by by doing a
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: sticker or a question. All right, I'm gonna I'm gonna
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: go to a questions and questions might take us in
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: a variety of different directions. We'll see. And uh, you know,
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 1: if if you guys, I will I will continue to
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: monitor kind of breaking news. I think the next big
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: baking news will be if they get the shooter. So
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: far it doesn't look like they have, but I will
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: monitor it. Also. Please feel fee to monitor it as well.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: You know, right, Yeah, it looks like the guy who
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: was arrested us was not the shooter. A number of
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: people are saying that, all right, all right, let's see,
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: let's start with Michael fifty dollars. Do Rand's novels start
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: the process of building pride and self esteem necessary for
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: the culture to base capitalism? Or do people have need
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: to have developed some degree of self esteem on their
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: own to even respond positively to her works? I think
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: the latter. I think to respond to Eying Man, you
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 1: already have to have something a commitment to honesty, some
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 1: sense of your own self worth, some sense of you know,
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: your own value. And if we have to have some
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: sense of self esteem, something you can't. I don't think
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: you can come into it completely having both psychologically and
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 1: philosophical and completely having bought into the current culture and
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: somehow I embase iing Man's ideas out of Nowhay. It
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 1: has to resonate with something in your soul or something
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 1: you So you've had to had to do something, and
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: what would have caused you to do that something I
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 1: don't know, but you must have done something to make
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: you the kind of person, to make yourself the kind
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: of person. The response to the iron, Rand, you must
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: and I think some of that is self esteem, not
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: all of it, but some of that is. Some is
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: some sense of self esteem. You have to at least
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: believe this new philosophy that you're about to be embracing.
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: You are worthy of it. You're worthy of embracing it,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: or worthy of pursuing it. So yes, all right, let's see,
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: all right, Rand, thank you, right fifty dollars. Really appreciate
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: that it's no longer psychologically healthy focus on news for
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: any length of time, Enjoy life, keep up with you
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: on and ignore social and mainstream media. You can't worry
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: all the time. It just makes you sick. I agree
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: with that. I mean, even listening to me every day
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: could make you sick. But obsessing beyond that is definitely
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: is definitely, you know, not healthy and not good. You know,
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 1: the culture is in decline, the news is not good. Generally,
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: they are positive trends. They're mainly in technology, but they
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 1: are outliers. They are not the thrust of the culture.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: They're not the main movement of the culture. There's health
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: can't breakthroughs, there's bio breakthroughs. They are they are breakthroughs
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: with regard to technology that should be celebrated and should
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: be should motivate you around what's possible in the future.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: But the reality is that when it comes to politics,
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: when it comes to geopolitical events, when it comes to
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: the state of the world, there's very little good news.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: There's very little good news. So I encourage people to
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: use me as a filter. I'll give you the bad news.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: You'll get all the bad news. You'll get it in
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 1: a couple of hours, and you're done with it. If
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 1: you do this and you watch Fox and you watch
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: a bunch of other things, you're wasting too much of
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 1: your precious, precious, precious life time life on all this stuff.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's way too depressive to engage with it.
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: Too much, too much.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, let's see what happens.
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: Let's see how this plays out. All right? What is it?
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: Eat something? All right? Did you see? Congress showed a
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four video of a US reaper firing a
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: million dollar health fire at a glowing orb off Yemen.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 1: Either its first contact America shoots to kill or it's
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: such a shiny balloon. What a time to be alive.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 1: God bless America. I doubt it's first contact. Who knows
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: what it is. There are lots of things out there,
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: the lots of you know, atmospheric illusion illusions as well.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 1: There are lots of shiny balloons. There lots of kinds
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 1: of stuff that happens to be out there. Again, the
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 1: you know, making big grandioses claims requires a big, grandiose evidence,
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: and I don't see the big grandiose evidence of first
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 1: contact so far. So I have no idea what it is.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: But you know, if it is for contact, why would
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 1: they be in Yemen? I'm kidding, but but maybe not anyway, Yeah,
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: thank you for the Wow, that's forty five dollars. I
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: appreciate that. It's it's a great it's a it's an
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: amazing time to be alive. Yes, for for better and
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 1: for worse, no question, h And alive is the emphasis
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: uh that we should we should be the thing we
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: should be emphasizing right now. I'm just following to see,
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 1: uh what is happening?
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah, all.
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: Right, Beery my friend says that everybody has intrinsic value,
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: and that is where your self esteem should come from,
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 1: not from what others think of you or your job.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: What do you think? Well, I think both your friend
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 1: and the alternate position are both. Mom. I mean, I
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 1: don't know what intrinsic value means. You have value to yourself,
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 1: or you should have value to yourself. You should value you,
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: but you should value you for a reason, not just
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 1: because because it's it's you, and you have the opportunity
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: to live, and you have an opportunity for joy and
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: happiness and pleasure and success you have, you have an
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: opportunity to enjoy life, so everybody, you know. Your self
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: esteem should come not just because you exist. Your self
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: esteem can come from from knowledge and conviction and understanding
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 1: that you are good or you have the potential to
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: be good, and that you can. You're worthy in a
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: sense of happiness, that you can live in this world
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 1: or this world. You know that you can't earn values
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 1: that you can achieve, you can't succeed. Self esteem should
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 1: come from you achieving your values. Indeed, self esteem has
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: nothing to do with others, nothing to do with other
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: people think of you, nothing to do with what other
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: people think of your job, what other people think of
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 1: your anything of your value. It's all about It's all
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: about what you think of yourself. It's all about how
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: you esteem yourself, and it's not automatic. So it's not
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: intrinsic in the sense that it's automatic. You have to
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 1: earn the esteem, and you earn that esteem by choosing
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: life affirming values and achieving them and knowing and proving
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 1: to yourself through this achievement that they are achievable that
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: you can't achieve them. That's where self esteem comes from.
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, I think your friend is close up,
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: but he's still wrong. It's not automatic. I know lots
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: and lots and lots of people don't esteem themselves, but
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 1: he is right in a sense that has nothing to do,
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: nothing to do with with other people, nothing to do
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 1: with other people. All right, I'm sorry, I keep switching
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: and checking checking. Uh what is being said out there? Yeah,
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, you get condolences from all sides, but you're
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: also i'm sure, getting kind of ugly celebrations from the left.
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: But political violence is evil. It's evil. I'm very worried
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: about this country. Worried about this country. Oh right, Michael,
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: do intellect just think elimination of the wefare state is
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: a form of eugenics? Is it? In a way? No?
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: I don't think they think that. There might be some
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 1: people who think that, but no, I don't think that,
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: and I don't think it is. There's no eugenics involved
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 1: here because I don't think the welfare state is correlated
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: with genes. I think the welfare state is correlated with culture,
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 1: with collated with attitude, correlated with and what you're killing
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: is not people. You're killing a culture. You're killing an attitude.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: And people won't die if there is an a welfare state.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: It's not like people are dying in the streets of
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 1: America when there wasn't a welfare state. So eliminating in
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: the welfare state it's not going to solve gonna. It's
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 1: not an issue of eugenics. It's an issue of justice.
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 1: It's an issue of both justice in terms of the
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: money you're taking from some people to give to others,
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 1: and an issue of justice visa vita people you're giving
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: the money too, who you're basically helping institutionalize into poverty.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: So it's wrong for both, but it's it's absolutely wrong.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: It's absolutely wrong to think of it in terms of
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 1: in terms of eugenics. Has nothing to do with eugenics.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: Henry Nighting the gale. Has is all done anything of
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 1: the negative things West accuses is of? Can isol be
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: blamed for the suffering in Gaza by not having ended
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 1: it faster? So has is all done anything of the
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: negative things the West account? Because you'd have to give
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 1: me a list. So, I mean, the you know, it's
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: always done a lot of the things that it's being
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: accused of, but it's justified in doing it. So a
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: lot of the things that the West says is always doing,
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: it's knowing, it's it's it's you know, children are dying,
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 1: Civilians are dying, there's no question about that. You know,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: the lives of Gazans are hell right now, there's no
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: question about that. So is Tho's doing all that? But
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 1: my point is it's justified in doing that and indeed
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: justifying and doing a lot more than that. You'd have
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 1: to give me a list. A lot of what the
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 1: West accuses as well of doing it isn't doing it,
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 1: just isn't doing it just makes stuff up. So it's
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: a it's a it's a it's a mixed bag. The
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: question is not, you know, justification, The question partially is
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 1: is as well justified in doing it? Is it right
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: for you to do it, And look, is those not perfect?
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 1: Is all does a lot of bad things. Certainly some
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: of the things that's doing in the West Bank. Certainly
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 1: what the settlers are doing in the West Bank attacking
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 1: Arabs is wrong, and Israeli States should be coming down
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: much harder on those settlers and prosecuting them. But overall
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 1: is all the good guys here. So that doesn't mean
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: when you say is all the good guys that every
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 1: single action it takes is right. It just means overall
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: they're the good guys, and overall the Palestinians here the
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 1: bad guys. Canizel be blamed for the suffering in Gaza
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 1: by not having ended it faster, Well, it's a crazy
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: way to put it. Let me be very direct here,
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: I don't care about the suffering in Gaza. The suffering
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: in Gaza at whatever level is occurring, for however long
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: it happens, is a consequence of Hamas's action. It's morally
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 1: the responsibility of Hamas, So I think I mean, I
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: would say Canizo be blamed for the death of its
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: soldiers by not having ended it faster. Yes, that's the blame.
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: But the suffering in Gaza is Why are you concerned
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: about it? Why do you care? Why do you care,
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: And to the extent that you care, why do you
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: blame Isel for any of it? For any of it,
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: Every single bit of that suffering is on Ramas. If
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: Israel would have done it fast, it would have been
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: blamed for doing it fast. If your Isoel does it slow,
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: it's blamed for doing it slow. Isel is going to
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 1: be blamed no matter what. The question is, who is responsible,
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 1: who made Gaza what it is, who brought it to
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 1: this brink of destruction or not? Just to bring to
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 1: destruction Tramas, It's all you need to know. So and
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 1: many people in Gaza, you know, granted their innocence like children.
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: Many people in Gaza are getting what they deserve. They're
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 1: getting the consequence of decisions they've made for years. They're
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: getting the consequences for the leadership they chose and supported.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 1: They're getting the consequences for the fact that they cheered
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: and supported the murder rate, you know, and slaughter of Israelis,
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 1: and then cheered and supported as hostages were brought back
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 1: to Gaza. They were there cheering and supporting, not not
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 1: all of them, but many of them. Childn't supported even
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 1: though they want caught on camera. So I have no
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 1: sympathy for the Gazians. And to the extent that the
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: children involved, that's on Ramas and it's on their parents.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 1: It's their fault. Unless you can say, oh, no, I
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 1: fought against Ramas, I objected to what Ramas was doing
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 1: in the Gaza strip. Then I have sympathy for you.
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: Everybody else, I just don't have sympathy for you. It
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean they'll deserve to die, but it doesn't mean
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 1: that the suffering is self inflicted. Michael, I just watched
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: up close video. Stomach churning. Yeah. I keep telling you
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: not to watch the video. People keep doing it. Neil Khan,
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: I'm disgusted by how both right and left politicize the
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 1: stabbing of the Ukrainian fueling racism. As someone who is
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: poer Ukraine, this is appalling. It's appalling whether you're poor
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 1: Ukraine or not. It's irrelevant the Ukraine. It's irrelevant to Ukraine.
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 1: It's appalling that they've taken this and politicized it, and
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: it's appalling that the left tolerates this and that the
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 1: right makes it into politics. I'm going to make another
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 1: appeal because we're not kind of meeting our targets. Just
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 1: to remind you that this show is only possible because
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 1: of you. Guys. There's two hundred people watching it right now.
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: We should have you know, a lot of people supporting
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: the show. Because you're here, it means you value something
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 1: about the show. It means you value something about my
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 1: presentation of the news. Trade with me. Show that you
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: value a show. Do a two dollars sticker, one dollar sticker,
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 1: three dollars sticker. It's not a lot, just something to
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 1: express the fact that you value being here. Tom says,
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 1: I hope you're enjoying European trip. I am, thank you, Tom,
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. Finnhopa says, mosquito has everything to gain from you. Ron,
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 1: Your honor is not need the gain from the killing
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 1: the mosquito I do. It's distracting me and it ultimately
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 1: will bite me and cause me pain. So I have
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: everything to gain by killing it. I killed one, but
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 1: there's a second one here, and who knows there might
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: be three, four, five, six, Who knows how many they
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 1: are here. I need to bring a like a spade
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 1: or something. James, what does it mean for him to
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 1: be shot in conservative state and it is one of
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 1: the top twenty safest in the United States. How does
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 1: the impact future college speakers. I don't know what that
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 1: has to do with anything. And also a state that
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 1: has pretty you know, pretty loose gun laws that allows
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: people to carry and and and allows people to own
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 1: guns pretty pretty easily. So in that sense, a conservative state,
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know what what conservative state has anything to
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: do with this. Right, Conservative states have lots of crazy people, leftists,
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 1: who who who might want to take him out and
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: and it's easier to take him out in a conservative
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 1: state because the gun laws are easier. Right, So it's
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: not clear to me exactly what what what points you're
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 1: trying to highlight. I mean, I would highlight the point
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 1: of it's not about red of blue. It never has me.
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: This is the point about politicizing the North Carolina. The
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: quitte is crime is actually in a decline in the
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 1: United States. It's lower, murdered rates are lower. But if
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: you want to commit a political crime in the United States,
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 1: you can do it guns that are easy to attain.
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 1: You just go to wherever the politician is and you
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: go up and you get close and you shoot them.
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 1: And here the shot was taken from two hundred yards.
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 1: But there are plenty of Americans who can go to
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 1: a firing range and train and figure out how to
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 1: shoot somebody two hundred yards away. So this is not hard.
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 1: This is easy and way you do it, the state
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 1: you do it. It's not like I mean some of
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 1: the least safe states or red states Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri,
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 1: Saint Lewis, Kansas, City states, I mean, cities and states
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 1: that are that are red, blue and red have nothing
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: to do with this. The fact that it's one of
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 1: the safest places in the United States has nothing to
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: do with it. Even the safest place in the United
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: States has some murders, some crime, some violence. Now doesn't
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 1: impact future college speakers. It has to write I mean,
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, colleges is an't gonna have to think about
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 1: how they're going to provide security. And people are gonna
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: have to think about going out particularly large audiences like this.
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 1: And if you're if you're particularly controversial or in this case,
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's an issue of being particularly controversial
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: if you're on the right, left, split right. The lots
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 1: of us out there who are controversial. Nobody's coming after me.
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: Nobody's coming after you know, a lot of people, because
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 1: we're just not big enough and we're not controversial on
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 1: the right issues. Right, we're not controversial on this left
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 1: right split. And if you're controversial on the left right split, beware.
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 1: But again, it's going to be interesting to see what
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 1: the response to this is and how how the US
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 1: response is the you know, after the CEO of United
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 1: Health was murdered, did we see a big increase in
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 1: murders of CEOs of other companies? We didn't, and now
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: we don't. Is this an indication that's now less safe?
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 1: Is this an indication there's going to be more of this?
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 1: Probably not. It's still probably a one off. It's probably
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 1: some crazy, some left is crazy like Maggione who killed
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 1: that CEO, who wanted to make wanted to make a statement.
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 1: But I don't see this as the beginning of a
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 1: big spat of this other than you could see kind
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 1: of a tit for tat response. And that's what I'm
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 1: afraid of. I'm afraid of kind of the responses the increase,
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 1: well broadly in political violence that might happen in the
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 1: United States so I don't see this as a wave
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 1: now of people being shot who go to university campuses.
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think that at all. If anything, security is
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 1: going to be tight up. All right, thank you, Henry,
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 1: thank you Jeffrey. These all people doing stickers and training
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 1: showing their appreciation for the show. E Demand, Apple Jack,
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: Thought Criminal, Mary Ellen, Jacob and Martin and yeah, thank
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 1: you guys. Really appreciate the stickers. Keep them coming, guys.
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 1: You can do two dollars, one dollars, ten dollars, five
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 1: hundred dollars. But whatever to show again, value for the value.
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 1: All right, fend Harper psa. Donald Watkins' Effective Egoism is
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 1: on audible for eight dollars. A great summary of how
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 1: to pursue happiness, including up and free will. Yeah, a
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 1: doll audible for effective Egoism. That seems like an amazing deal.
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 1: All of you guys should buy it. You can get
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 1: it on an Amazon. It's called Effective Altruism by Don Watkins.
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 1: So check it out. Thank you Fedd Hopper for doing
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 1: the public Civilce announcement. It's incredibly valuable. Okay, we have
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 1: one last question, so if you want to ask me
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: a question, now's the time to do it. Now's the
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 1: time to do it, and so jump in. SHAWNA. Fhulton says,
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: we also don't know if the criminal was a leftist.
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 1: We don't, we don't. I'm assuming we're talking about the
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 1: person who shot Charlie Cook. I'm assuming it was. I'm
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 1: assuming it was politically motivated, because why else with a
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 1: sniper be at a public event shooting Charlie Cook. So
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's political. The right loves Charlie Cook, so human.
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 1: It's not somebody on the right who has a political
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 1: beef for Charlie. So I think it's a safe assumption
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 1: it's somebody from the left. It could just be a nutcase.
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 1: It could be just somebody looking for attention, like the
• 1:47:21
  Speaker 1: person who tried to shoot Donald Trump. Is not clear
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 1: that guy was a leftist. It's not what he was.
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 1: But you know, we will see confirmation for what. I'm
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 1: not sure what Ian says. Why is the only confirmation
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: of this still Trump's statement? Is the media completing capable
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 1: of doing their job? No, I mean there's been confirmation
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 1: from a bunch of people, a bunch of new sources,
• 1:47:51
  Speaker 1: including the Wall Street journal I don't think that just
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 1: came from Trump. Yeah, I mean, here's the last interaction
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 1: that Charlie had, last interaction with Charlie had, and this
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: is the kind of issues that, for whatever reason, really
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 1: really gets people. Audience member, do you know how many
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 1: transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last ten years?
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 1: Cook says too many? Same audience when member says no,
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 1: the numbers five, and then asks Charlie if he knows
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 1: how many mass shooters they have been in America over
• 1:48:41
  Speaker 1: the last ten years. Cook says, counting on not counting
• 1:48:44
  Speaker 1: gang violence, and the guy says the number is fifty
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 1: seven hundred and I don't think. I don't know if
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 1: that includes mass violence or not. Was that's when he shot? So,
• 1:48:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's completely messed up. It should never come
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: to this. Violence is not the solution. What we need
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 1: is more speech, more robust speech. What we need is
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 1: more debate, more interaction. I will say that on the
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 1: front of debate. I was approached yesterday. We'll see if
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 1: this pans out by an organization, a very prominent organization
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 1: in the UK, a media organization in the UK, the
• 1:49:26
  Speaker 1: ones to start hosting large debates in the UK and
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 1: asked me if I would participate in the debate with
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 1: potentially two different debates, one on Donald Trump and one
• 1:49:42
  Speaker 1: on this is a conservative organization, by the way, one
• 1:49:45
  Speaker 1: on Donald Trump and one on capitalism or tariffs. So
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: stay tuned. If anything comes of it, I will let
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: you know. But what we need of robust debates, and
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 1: what we need is a speech. We need more speech,
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 1: less violence, more speech, more engagement, more more dialogue, and
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: more disagreement, more and the willingness to disagree while recognizing
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 1: morady judging people morally judging people doesn't mean they should
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 1: be shot if you modely judge somebody negatively. The CBS
• 1:50:27
  Speaker 1: story quotes Donald Trump. I don't know if the Wall
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 1: Sat Journal was quoting Donald Trump. I don't know who
• 1:50:33
  Speaker 1: is quoting, who's quoting whom, So I don't know. I
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 1: assume this is being verified by the media beyond just
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 1: quoting Donald Trump, or they wouldn't be doing it. Fanks says,
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: fifty dollars in memory of Charlie of Charlie Cooke an
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 1: exemplary example of the power of free speech, respect for facts,
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 1: and no nonsense business like epistemology. He I mean, I
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 1: agree with that up to a point. You know, I
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 1: hate to say ill of the of the of the murdered,
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 1: but I don't think he had a great epistemology. I
• 1:51:13
  Speaker 1: think he was way too reliance on religion. I think
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: he did not he respected facts up to a point,
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: up to a point where he did not conflict with
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 1: his particular mystical beliefs. And and there's a lot of
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 1: issues where he was completely utterly wrong on and where
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 1: he deviated from the facts significantly. But again I haven't
• 1:51:36
  Speaker 1: knownus amount of had ansome out of respect for what
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 1: Charlie built created the fact that he was willing to
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 1: go out there and debate and engage and and and
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 1: participate in the debate. He didn't shy away from confrontation,
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 1: and he was calm and collect in front of an audience.
• 1:51:57
  Speaker 1: You didn't see him yelling and losing losing his cool.
• 1:52:01
  Speaker 1: He was. He exhibited, you know, the positive traits of
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 1: being good at debate. Even when his epistemology was significantly flawed.
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 1: He often engaged in I think pretty false and bad reasoning. Again,
• 1:52:19
  Speaker 1: that is not to say anything about the fact that
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 1: I disagreed with him. I'm still unbelievably shocked and saddened
• 1:52:28
  Speaker 1: by his by his being murdered. It really is horrific.
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 1: Adif thank you for the stick. I really appreciate that.
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 1: All right, let's see. I'm just looking at the chat
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 1: to see if there's anything of interest. But yeah, all right,
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 1: let's see how this plays out. We will be talking
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 1: about this, I think for the next few days, and uh,
• 1:53:07
  Speaker 1: we will be analyzing the consequences. And I think there
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 1: will be consequences. We'll see how they play out. I
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 1: don't think anything good is gonna come of this if. Sadly,
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: there are no there are no there are no adults
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 1: in the room to turn this into a teaching moment
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 1: or a learning moment or calm things down and h
• 1:53:34
  Speaker 1: So I see nothing but but negative consequences. All right,
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 1: checking to see if there's anything else it is no.
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 1: Smith says that this is the first assassination of a
• 1:53:58
  Speaker 1: major media figure, uh that we've seen in the last decade.
• 1:54:04
  Speaker 1: I mean that strikes me. It's true. I don't know
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 1: if it's true. I can't think of anybody else was
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 1: who was shot, assassinated, killed in the last decade, a
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 1: public figure. So it would be if somebody, if somebody
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 1: knows something different then then let me know. But all right,
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 1: I mean this is a I mean, I'll just say
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 1: it's a big blow to the New Right and to
• 1:54:44
  Speaker 1: to the to the cause of MAGA and to the
• 1:54:48
  Speaker 1: cause of the right. I mean, Charlie was a raising star. Uh.
• 1:54:52
  Speaker 1: He probably could have run for president. He was definitely
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 1: one of the one of the superstars on the right.
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 1: Uh and uh, you know yeah, and he's literally answering
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 1: a question about violence when he was shot, and a
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 1: lot of people on the right are furious, really really upset,
• 1:55:16
  Speaker 1: really really angry, and and one wonders, I'm just scrolling
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 1: through this and wondering how that how that you know,
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 1: plays out in in uh what happens now? Stayment now
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 1: from Ben Shapiro. Ben Shapiro also met it looks like
