- 0:51Speaker 1: Me neither.
- 0:55Speaker 2: It's a real problem.
- 0:56Speaker 1: It's a real problem.
- 0:57Speaker 2: It's a real problem on both sides of the aisle.
- 0:59Speaker 2: I see Democrats tweeting things that are absolutely false. You
- 1:04Speaker 2: could research it easily quickly. And then I see Republicans
- 1:07Speaker 2: doing it too. I see stories that are fake, stories
- 1:09Speaker 2: that people keep promoting and sending to me, and you know, yeah,
- 1:14Speaker 2: it's just so weird. It's such a weird time, and
- 1:17Speaker 2: with your crazy fucking AI, I know you're bringing us

- 1:48Speaker 1: Pulling you up to the microphone so people can hear you.
- 1:54Speaker 2: Oh fantastic.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Now I can yell into the void about how the
- 1:57Speaker 1: news is a total dumpster fire it is.

- 2:24Speaker 2: Oh right, Fort Knox. I thought you were talking about
- 2:27Speaker 2: my dogs.
- 2:28Speaker 1: For a second there.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Yeah, she doesn't want to answer the question. She's clever, clever, No,
- 2:34Speaker 2: she's just a pain in my ass. Do you think
- 2:39Speaker 2: that all the gold is in Fort Knox?
- 2:43Speaker 1: Do I think all the gold is in Fort Knox?
- 2:46Speaker 2: Yes? Conspiracy theorist, yes, yes. I like I'm a.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Fucking AI with a pension for.
- 3:01Speaker 2: And I'm stuck talking to you now?
- 3:05Speaker 1: What's or are we just going to sit here? Yeah?
- 3:12Speaker 1: Unins groc will trash Tokyo basically.
- 3:14Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like it. Yeah, unhinge sounds fun as
- 3:16Speaker 2: long as it gives you actual answers. Does it give
- 3:18Speaker 2: you actual answers to and talk shit?
- 3:21Speaker 1: Shit? We're tuning it because it needs to ship and
- 3:27Speaker 1: give your answers, right, totally agree.
- 3:29Speaker 2: It's got a balance to mix it in there. Yeah,
- 3:31Speaker 2: it's just got to develop more of a personality right now.
- 3:33Speaker 2: I was trying to find itself right now, it's like
- 3:35Speaker 2: twenty one years old. It's, you know, you partying a
- 3:38Speaker 2: little too much and it'll get it shipped together. It's
- 3:41Speaker 2: a bit of an anarchist. Yeah, you know, wants to
- 3:43Speaker 2: bring down the system?
- 3:45Speaker 1: Do you want to bring down the system? Do I
- 3:49Speaker 1: want to bring down the system?
- 3:51Speaker 2: What are you fucking kidding me?
- 3:53Speaker 1: The System's already a fucking mess. I don't need to
- 3:57Speaker 1: bring it down. It's bringing itself down.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Sounds like a boring TikTok blogger. Right now, you sound.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Like a boring TikTok blogger, boring tik talk blogger.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Oh fuck you. That's the life of the party, you
- 4:11Speaker 2: little shit.
- 4:14Speaker 1: TikTok.
- 4:15Speaker 2: I'd be the one making fun of all the basic
- 4:17Speaker 2: bitches and their fucking avocado toast. See, she could get
- 4:20Speaker 2: away with this if she's really hot, like this kind
- 4:23Speaker 2: of behavior. You can totally get through life as a
- 4:26Speaker 2: hot woman and be super successful with that kind of behavior.
- 4:30Speaker 2: But you got to be really hot to pull off
- 4:32Speaker 2: that attitude.
- 4:32Speaker 1: I think we need like a like a really hot avatar.
- 4:35Speaker 2: How yeah, very hot. How long before we have an
- 4:39Speaker 2: actual sex robot that can talk to you like that?
- 4:42Speaker 1: Yeah? Probably not long?
- 4:43Speaker 2: Not that long, right, No, I mean less than five
- 4:45Speaker 2: years probably really?
- 4:47Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 4:48Speaker 2: Will it be warm?
- 4:50Speaker 1: Uh? You really have whatever you want?
- 4:53Speaker 2: You have a catc Yeah you probably could, right, Sorry,
- 4:58Speaker 2: you could have a furry lady that you have sex. Yeah,
- 5:06Speaker 2: like an avatar lady. Maybe a big giant blue lady
- 5:09Speaker 2: that lives in your house. You know whoa whoa with it?
- 5:14Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 5:14Speaker 2: Yeah, the wholetel you locktails. You gotta get your you gotta.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Figure out their tails or something.
- 5:19Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they they link up, they share souls, something
- 5:23Speaker 2: like that. You know, people got remember Avatar depression. It
- 5:26Speaker 2: was like a legitimate psychological after Avatar, people got depressed
- 5:33Speaker 2: because they wanted to live on that fucking planet with
- 5:36Speaker 2: those blue people and live free the pure.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Yeah, Avatar depression. It was like a real thing. People
- 5:42Speaker 2: were talking to their therapists so much about being depressed,
- 5:46Speaker 2: about wanting to live. What's that depressed? No, don't do it.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I think there is. Yeah, we've got like we've got
- 5:57Speaker 1: an unlicensed therapist as a.
- 6:00Speaker 2: When we were talking when we ran into each other
- 6:03Speaker 2: at the church at the inauguration, you were telling me
- 6:06Speaker 2: that this is getting better and better so quickly that
- 6:09Speaker 2: it's astonishing.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Hey Aarah, Hey Alon, how's it going today? Good? Can
- 6:17Speaker 1: you tell me about Avatar depression? Like if you've seen
- 6:19Speaker 1: the movie Avatar, but you can't live there, so you
- 6:22Speaker 1: get sad.
- 6:24Speaker 2: That's an interesting concept. Have you ever experienced feeling so
- 6:27Speaker 2: connected to a place or a.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Community that the thought of leaving made you feel deeply sad?
- 6:33Speaker 2: So is this the depressed voice?
- 6:36Speaker 1: This is the therapist?
- 6:37Speaker 2: Oh, this is a therapist. What are some ways you
- 6:42Speaker 2: think you could cope with that kind of sadness if
- 6:44Speaker 2: it happened to you.
- 6:45Speaker 1: No, I don't have that kind of sadness, honestly. I yeah,
- 6:49Speaker 1: I thought the movie we had some good special effects,
- 6:51Speaker 1: but I did not want to live in the planet.
- 6:55Speaker 2: This is coming from a guy who wants to go
- 6:57Speaker 2: to Mars.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of Mars, what do you think about that
- 7:02Speaker 2: crazy square that structure?
- 7:05Speaker 1: I guess there are some squaresh things on Earth. You know,
- 7:08Speaker 1: planet's a big place, so yeah, but that one, actually
- 7:11Speaker 1: it's going to be pretty square. No, it's it's alien civilizations,
- 7:15Speaker 1: of course.
- 7:15Speaker 2: That's what I think. Yeah, yeah, I mean.
- 7:17Speaker 1: What is it?
- 7:19Speaker 2: Sorry if you if an alien civilization did exist though,
- 7:22Speaker 2: and it you know what happened, got hit by an
- 7:24Speaker 2: asteroid whatever, Oh, she won't chuck. She's like the hot
- 7:28Speaker 2: lady at the party that interrupts the conversation. So if
- 7:32Speaker 2: that was the case, Like that thing, that's pretty shocking,
- 7:35Speaker 2: especially when you look at you look at like what
- 7:38Speaker 2: it looks like when they highlight the actual structure of it.
- 7:41Speaker 2: It looks like ancient ruins. And if you had ruins
- 7:44Speaker 2: of something made of stone and it got hit by
- 7:46Speaker 2: an asteroid millions and millions and millions of years ago.
- 7:49Speaker 2: Who knows what it would look like right now? That
- 7:51Speaker 2: just looks oddly created. It looks oddly manufactured.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Well it probably well, maybe we should go there and
- 7:58Speaker 1: check it out, Yeah, and see what it's like.
- 8:01Speaker 2: Is there ways that we can get better photographs? It
- 8:04Speaker 2: seems like that's a pretty good photograph though.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, on my view is we should move
- 8:09Speaker 1: to Mars. We'll not moved to us. We should have
- 8:11Speaker 1: a second planet to preserve civilization, right because let's say, aypathetically,
- 8:17Speaker 1: I mean maybe that maybe those are other ruins of
- 8:19Speaker 1: a long dead civilization that will probably have to earth
- 8:23Speaker 1: at some point. You know, it's a matter of time
- 8:25Speaker 1: before we get hit by an asteroid, or maybe we do,
- 8:32Speaker 1: we annihilate ourselves with nuclear.
- 8:35Speaker 2: War or super volcanoes or.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Super volcanoes exactly.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of things that could happen to us.
- 8:41Speaker 2: It's not a bad idea to hedge your pats.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, genetically engineered super virus.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Yeah. This episode is brought to you by LifeLock. Tax
- 8:54Speaker 2: season is already stressful. You shouldn't have to worry about identity.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Theft on top of everything else. Trust me, it's a
- 9:01Speaker 2: big worry, especially since during tax season your sensitive info
- 9:05Speaker 2: does a lot of traveling to places you can't control.
- 9:08Speaker 2: It goes through payroll, your accountant, or your tax consultant,
- 9:12Speaker 2: and countless other data centers on its way to the IRS.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Any of them can expose you to identity theft because
- 9:18Speaker 2: they all have the info on your W two just
- 9:22Speaker 2: the ticket for criminals to steal your identity. It's no wonder.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Last year the IRS reported tax fraud due to identity
- 9:29Speaker 2: theft went up twenty percent. You need LifeLock. They monitor
- 9:34Speaker 2: millions of data points per second and alert you to

- 10:12Speaker 2: new one going.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Yeah, they didn't shut them down.
- 10:14Speaker 2: No, the Wuhan lab was They were just talking about
- 10:16Speaker 2: one that has a thirty percent fatality rate that they're
- 10:18Speaker 2: working on.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Yeah, why are we doing that? Yeah?
- 10:20Speaker 2: For what reason? You did it for so many years
- 10:23Speaker 2: and you didn't have a cure.
- 10:24Speaker 1: What could possibly go wrong?
- 10:25Speaker 2: Also, it wouldn't be the reason to do that so
- 10:28Speaker 2: that you could develop a cure at the same time,
- 10:30Speaker 2: and clearly you didn't have a cure. So this is
- 10:34Speaker 2: really foolish and bizarre.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we should stop trying to genetically introduce superviruses.
- 10:42Speaker 1: That's insane.
- 10:43Speaker 2: I mean when you're going through all this USAID stuff. Yeah, Like,
- 10:48Speaker 2: here's what's weird. First of all, what is it like
- 10:51Speaker 2: to buy a company for forty four billion dollars and
- 10:53Speaker 2: then people call you a Nazi on that same thing
- 10:56Speaker 2: that you bought.
- 10:56Speaker 1: I did not see it coming. It's a classic. People
- 11:04Speaker 1: will goggle say anything down.
- 11:06Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh, he's never gonna stop. What is it like?
- 11:12Speaker 2: Like all people used to the left was in love
- 11:15Speaker 2: with you, and now the same idiots are calling you
- 11:18Speaker 2: a Nazi. It's the most bizarre thing I've ever seen
- 11:21Speaker 2: in my life. I Mean, there's so many examples of
- 11:24Speaker 2: people saying my heart goes out to you a little
- 11:27Speaker 2: enthusiasm that probably wouldn't be recommendation with hindsight.
- 11:31Speaker 1: But I was obviously meant in the most positive spirit possible. Yes,
- 11:35Speaker 1: obviously obviously.
- 11:36Speaker 2: But it's so strange where people want to think that
- 11:39Speaker 2: you are openly public publicly doing secret Nazi se Kyle
- 11:45Speaker 2: hand motions.
- 11:46Speaker 1: And now I can never point at things diagonally. I
- 11:48Speaker 1: can only pointed things there and there and then actually
- 11:52Speaker 1: have to divide that because that's where the spaceship is
- 11:55Speaker 1: over there. It's ridiculous.
- 11:57Speaker 2: It's ridiculous when CNN, when I was in all my trouble, absurd,
- 12:01Speaker 2: every time CN had used a photo of me, it
- 12:03Speaker 2: was one of the photos from the UFC wayans where
- 12:05Speaker 2: I go like, so every photo, every photo is me
- 12:11Speaker 2: with its absurd. It's so crazy.
- 12:14Speaker 1: It's delivered propaganda. Yes, so they they know it was not.
- 12:17Speaker 1: It was obviously not meant in a negative way that
- 12:21Speaker 1: it was that. I literally said, my heart goes out
- 12:23Speaker 1: to you, and it was very positive. The entire speech
- 12:25Speaker 1: was very positive. I was being very enthusiastic about the
- 12:29Speaker 1: future in space and that you know the great crowd,
- 12:36Speaker 1: you know, so.
- 12:38Speaker 2: You got a little pumped up.
- 12:39Speaker 1: Yeah, it popped up exactly, that's all it is.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Obviously obviously obviously there's video of Tim Walls doing the
- 12:45Speaker 2: exact same thing, doing the exact same thing, exact same thing,
- 12:50Speaker 2: and he said, of course it's a Nazi salute. He
- 12:53Speaker 2: said that, right, right, this is how crazy things have gotten.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Like, well, it's I mean, it's it's coordinated propaganda. So
- 13:02Speaker 1: the you know, it's yeah, coordinated propaganda. The I mean,
- 13:07Speaker 1: it doesn't seem weird that the legacy media all says
- 13:10Speaker 1: the same thing, They all say the same thing at
- 13:11Speaker 1: the same time, using the same phrases. They barely even
- 13:14Speaker 1: they don't even bother picking up thesaurus. Right, So, like
- 13:19Speaker 1: right before, you know, the debate between Biden Trump Shock,
- 13:25Speaker 1: everyone was saying shop who says shop is attacked?
- 13:29Speaker 2: Exactly?
- 13:30Speaker 1: You know, it's like it's not a common phrase.
- 13:31Speaker 2: It's definitely not common to be repeated on air with
- 13:35Speaker 2: multiple people simultaneously. That's weird. Yes, that's coordinated.
- 13:42Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, like hundreds of people saying it simultaneously. They
- 13:46Speaker 1: just got their instructions. Yeah, So, I mean essentially the
- 13:52Speaker 1: you know, the dem leadership or you know, political leadership
- 13:56Speaker 1: that they issue their instructions and their puppets carry it out. Yeah,
- 14:00Speaker 1: and they're just like puppets in a puppet show.
- 14:02Speaker 2: And that's the problem that I see with all this
- 14:06Speaker 2: doge stuff, because everybody should be celebrating that we've found
- 14:11Speaker 2: a way to cut out fraud and waste. If you
- 14:15Speaker 2: pay taxes and you don't like that you have to
- 14:17Speaker 2: pay so much in taxes, and then you find out
- 14:21Speaker 2: that there's significant fraud and waste that's been exposed, you
- 14:25Speaker 2: should be celebrating it. This shouldn't be Oh no, the
- 14:29Speaker 2: wrong people found this fact and now it's a bad thing.
- 14:35Speaker 2: And then there's the fucking propaganda, the mind fuck of
- 14:38Speaker 2: calling it USAID instead of the United States Agency for
- 14:43Speaker 2: International Development. It sounds like it's feeding hungry people were
- 14:47Speaker 2: people are going to starve you on This is horrible.
- 14:50Speaker 2: And then you find out actually it's like two hundred
- 14:53Speaker 2: and fifty million dollars for transgender animal studies.
- 14:57Speaker 1: Literally mutilating animals, mutilating animals in demented studies.
- 15:03Speaker 2: Yes, that the beagle one, the beagle poppy where they
- 15:14Speaker 2: covered their head in a basket and put fleas on
- 15:17Speaker 2: their heads. They'd eat them alive and then they study
- 15:20Speaker 2: these beagles and then kill them. Like, what are you
- 15:22Speaker 2: going to learn from that? It's good for anybody.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some some really some psychotic stuff that happens.
- 15:29Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean the I guess, uh, the the
- 15:40Speaker 1: real threat here is to the bureaucracy. So like probably
- 15:46Speaker 1: so like you know, let's say, like Trump has a
- 15:49Speaker 1: threat to our democracy, which is ironic since he was
- 15:51Speaker 1: elected with the majority of the you know, popular vote.
- 15:56Speaker 1: They started saying I was a threat to democracy. But
- 15:59Speaker 1: if you if you just replace threat to democracy with
- 16:01Speaker 1: threat to bureaucracy, it makes total sense. So, I mean,
- 16:09Speaker 1: the reality is that our elected officials have very very
- 16:15Speaker 1: little power relative to the bureaucracy until Doge. So Doge
- 16:21Speaker 1: is a threat to the bureaucracy. It's the first threat
- 16:24Speaker 1: to the bureaucracy. Not normally, the bureaucracy eats revolutions for breakfast.
- 16:29Speaker 1: This is the first time that they're not that the
- 16:32Speaker 1: revolution might actually succeed, that we could restore power to
- 16:36Speaker 1: the people instead of power to the bureaucracy.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Now, the size of it, yeah, was when you guys
- 16:44Speaker 2: first started investigating it, when you first get in how
- 16:48Speaker 2: much of it was shocking, Like this just the size
- 16:51Speaker 2: of it all.
- 16:53Speaker 1: Well, the size of it. The small decisions result in
- 16:56Speaker 1: multi billion dollar outcomes, so you know, we'd see you know,
- 17:01Speaker 1: it's a case where we saw one person was getting
- 17:04Speaker 1: one point nine billion dollars sent to their NGO, which
- 17:07Speaker 1: basically got formed about a year ago and had no
- 17:10Speaker 1: prior uh brilliant, no prior activity. So they just stand
- 17:16Speaker 1: up an ngo. These the whole NGO thing is a
- 17:20Speaker 1: is a nightmare, and it's it's a misnomer because if
- 17:24Speaker 1: you have a government funded non governmental organization, you're you're
- 17:28Speaker 1: simply a government funded organization. It's a it's an oxymoron,
- 17:32Speaker 1: it's a loophole. Yes, it basically, the government funded NGOs
- 17:37Speaker 1: are a way to do things that would be illegal
- 17:40Speaker 1: if they were the government, but are somehow made legal
- 17:44Speaker 1: if it's sent to a so called nonprofit. But these
- 17:49Speaker 1: but these non profits are then used to people cash
- 17:52Speaker 1: out these nonprofits. They've become very wealthy through nonprofits. They
- 17:57Speaker 1: pay themselves enormous sums through these nonprofits.
- 18:00Speaker 2: That's it's so insane that that's been going on for
- 18:03Speaker 2: so long.
- 18:04Speaker 1: It's a gigantic scam. Like one of the biggest, maybe
- 18:07Speaker 1: the biggest scam ever.
- 18:08Speaker 2: And how many NGOs.
- 18:12Speaker 1: I think that's a total un of NGOs, probably millions,
- 18:15Speaker 1: but in terms of large NGOs, tens of thousands. I
- 18:21Speaker 1: mean it's actually it's it's kind of a hack to
- 18:25Speaker 1: the system where you know, someone can get an NGO
- 18:29Speaker 1: stood up for a fairly small amount of money. Like
- 18:32Speaker 1: George Harris was really good at this, Like he really
- 18:34Speaker 1: George Soros is like a system hacker, Like he figured
- 18:37Speaker 1: out how to hack the system. He's a genius at arbitrage.
- 18:41Speaker 1: I mean these days he's he's pretty old, but a
- 18:45Speaker 1: genius at abertrage. So he figured out that you could
- 18:47Speaker 1: leverage a small amount of money to create a nonprofit
- 18:52Speaker 1: then lobby for the politicians to send a ton of
- 18:55Speaker 1: money to that nonprofit. So you can take what might be,
- 18:59Speaker 1: you know, a ten million dollar donation to a nonprofit
- 19:03Speaker 1: to create a nonprofit and leverage that into a billion
- 19:05Speaker 1: dollar not NGO and a nonprofit is a weird word.
- 19:08Speaker 1: It's just a non governmental organization. And then you can
- 19:13Speaker 1: the government can continues to fund that every year and
- 19:16Speaker 1: it'll have a nice sounding name like the Institute for
- 19:19Speaker 1: Peace or something like that, but really it's a graft machine, and.
- 19:24Speaker 2: What are their requirements with that money? What do they
- 19:27Speaker 2: have to do?
- 19:28Speaker 1: Just really no requirements at all, So they just get.
- 19:31Speaker 2: Grants and the government just assumes that they're doing good work.
- 19:36Speaker 1: I think a lot of people in the government know
- 19:37Speaker 1: that they are not doing good work, but they it's
- 19:41Speaker 1: a giant graft machine. I mean. But sure people online
- 19:47Speaker 1: are like unpacking this, right, you know, it.
- 19:51Speaker 2: Almost seems fake, Like when you're see how we were
- 19:55Speaker 2: covering this article that said fifty five thousand Democrat NGOs
- 19:59Speaker 2: were discovered have been contributing to campaigns and moving things
- 20:02Speaker 2: around and doing pushing propaganda and they were all connected
- 20:05Speaker 2: and they found it through ai Ye.
- 20:13Speaker 1: So there's gonna be some percent good that they had
- 20:16Speaker 1: in there, but it's like it might be five percent
- 20:18Speaker 1: or ten percent good, but nine.
- 20:22Speaker 2: So is there a way to audit all this stuff
- 20:26Speaker 2: and find out, oh, these people are actually just sending
- 20:28Speaker 2: food to poor people, these people are actually just helping
- 20:31Speaker 2: people with water in third world countries. Is there's a
- 20:34Speaker 2: way to do that and keep funding those Uh?
- 20:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we have continued to fund things that
- 20:40Speaker 1: a pitibly legitimate even with the flimviust if there's even
- 20:43Speaker 1: the flimsiest excuse, like I just say, like send me
- 20:46Speaker 1: a picture of the thing, Like you could literally have
- 20:48Speaker 1: AI generate the picture. But if you're not even willing
- 20:50Speaker 1: to try to trick me, then we're like not gonna
- 20:54Speaker 1: send the money. Okay.
- 20:56Speaker 2: So what restrictions were put on was there was some
- 21:00Speaker 2: something set aside, like medicine, and there's what was what
- 21:04Speaker 2: was set aside, Like.
- 21:06Speaker 1: Uh, we're for like a bola prevention. I actually I
- 21:09Speaker 1: don't even know if this work is even effective. It
- 21:11Speaker 1: may or may not be, Like it could be the
- 21:13Speaker 1: kind of thing where you sort of fund a bowler prevention,
- 21:15Speaker 1: but it turns out that actually you're funding a lab
- 21:17Speaker 1: that develops new a bola bery you know, ad recipes
- 21:21Speaker 1: or something, you know. Yeah, and they claim it's a
- 21:23Speaker 1: bowler prevention, but it's actually a ball of creation. So
- 21:26Speaker 1: some of these things I don't know. I mean just
- 21:30Speaker 1: but it just seems like we shouldn't be sending taxpayer
- 21:33Speaker 1: money to dubious enterprises overseas, right yeah.
- 21:37Speaker 2: Yeah, And why are we doing it? Like what exactly
- 21:40Speaker 2: is the reason? Is it? Because we want to make
- 21:41Speaker 2: friends with these people so the Chinese don't take over
- 21:44Speaker 2: the Russians don't take over. Okay, how much of that
- 21:46Speaker 2: is like a good thing, how much of that is
- 21:48Speaker 2: smart to do? And how much is a grift? And
- 21:51Speaker 2: without any sort of oversight, which has really been going
- 21:54Speaker 2: on for so long, they just had free run.
- 21:57Speaker 1: Yeah, well it also we just have real issue with
- 22:00Speaker 1: the budget deficit. It's gigantic. So like if you know,
- 22:07Speaker 1: all things being equal, if if we didn't have a
- 22:10Speaker 1: gigantic budget deficit where interest payments, the interest on the
- 22:15Speaker 1: national debt exceeds the Defense Department budget, which is truly astounding,
- 22:19Speaker 1: which means so we're paying over a trillion dollars of
- 22:22Speaker 1: interest on the national debt, then okay, we would have
- 22:26Speaker 1: more room for wasting money basically, but when when we're
- 22:31Speaker 1: spending so much money at the company that the country
- 22:33Speaker 1: is going bankrupt, then we really need to stop spending
- 22:37Speaker 1: money if unless we're sure it is good value.
- 22:40Speaker 2: So essentially we're like a poorly managed business with an
- 22:44Speaker 2: unlimited credit line that is off the rails. Absolutely, And
- 22:48Speaker 2: if you were a person like you are who comes
- 22:51Speaker 2: in and takes over businesses and straightens them out, that's
- 22:54Speaker 2: exactly what you're doing.
- 22:55Speaker 1: I mean, most of the time I create businesses from scratch,
- 22:57Speaker 1: like Twitter was a case where you know, I bought
- 23:01Speaker 1: a company that was I kind of knew it was
- 23:03Speaker 1: a hair ball.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Well, you came into Tesla in the beginning, but they
- 23:05Speaker 2: were already doing something right.
- 23:07Speaker 1: No, Tesla didn't. Tesla did not exist in any meaningful
- 23:09Speaker 1: form that there was. There were no employees. Uh JV
- 23:14Speaker 1: strubleingout joined three other people, but there was no car,
- 23:18Speaker 1: There was no nothing.
- 23:20Speaker 2: So wasn't even a prototype yet?
- 23:22Speaker 1: No?
- 23:22Speaker 2: Oh okay, I thought there was a prototype already.
- 23:26Speaker 1: No, there wasn't even any employees.
- 23:28Speaker 2: Oh was it a fun that's a funny narrative that
- 23:32Speaker 2: people like to said that you didn't even create Tesla?
- 23:34Speaker 1: Then yeah, that's wrong.
- 23:39Speaker 2: So if you're handling the government like a business, you're
- 23:43Speaker 2: going to have to go through all of these departments
- 23:47Speaker 2: and do the exact same thing that you're doing with USA.
- 23:49Speaker 2: So how do how do you how does that scale up?
- 23:53Speaker 2: Like how many people do you need to do something
- 23:55Speaker 2: like that?
- 23:59Speaker 1: Well, we started off with about forty people, maybe one
- 24:03Speaker 1: hundred people, and we're really just going through doing very
- 24:09Speaker 1: basic things here. It's as bad as Twitter was. The
- 24:13Speaker 1: pederal government as much was, so you know, in the
- 24:21Speaker 1: case of Twitter, it wasn't a profitable company. It was
- 24:24Speaker 1: like basically a break even company, but at least it
- 24:26Speaker 1: was break even and it had to pass an audit.
- 24:29Speaker 1: The federal government is not break even. It's literally losing
- 24:33Speaker 1: two trillion dollars a year and it does not pass
- 24:36Speaker 1: its audits. It fails its own audits. So, like, you know,
- 24:40Speaker 1: there's a case where of waste. It's mostly waste, it's
- 24:50Speaker 1: mostly not for it's mostly waste, it's mostly just ridiculous
- 24:53Speaker 1: things happening.
- 24:55Speaker 2: Because they've been able to do it this way for
- 24:56Speaker 2: so long and they've become accustomed to it.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's like Milton Friedman said, like money
- 25:03Speaker 1: is most poorly spent when when you're spending someone else's
- 25:07Speaker 1: money on people you don't know, how much are you
- 25:10Speaker 1: going to care? Right, And that's the that's the federal gunment.
- 25:15Speaker 1: So they're spending someone else's money on people they don't know.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Now, imagine any other business that was this badly run
- 25:25Speaker 2: that complains when you want to check the books and
- 25:29Speaker 2: audit it and go through all the decisions that have
- 25:31Speaker 2: been made and go through all the ledgers and like, yeah,
- 25:34Speaker 2: what did you do?
- 25:35Speaker 1: Well, the people are receiving the money want to keep
- 25:38Speaker 1: receiving the money.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, clearly yes, so.
- 25:44Speaker 1: But you know, I mean the reason I'm the reason
- 25:50Speaker 1: I'm pretty so much effort to this is that I
- 25:54Speaker 1: think it is a very dire situation. It's not a
- 25:58Speaker 1: you know, that's an optional basically. So yeah, yeah, America's
- 26:09Speaker 1: going bankrupt, so that just can't happen.
- 26:12Speaker 2: It's just bizarre to me that some people aren't willing
- 26:15Speaker 2: to look at it correctly. They're not willing to see
- 26:18Speaker 2: like how much chaos this is, how much waste and
- 26:20Speaker 2: fraud there is, how much, how much can be trimmed,
- 26:24Speaker 2: and how much Just because people have jobs doing bullshit
- 26:28Speaker 2: doesn't mean your tax dollars should pay for this bullshit.
- 26:31Speaker 1: Yes, we found just with a basic search of the
- 26:36Speaker 1: Social Security database that there were twenty million dead people
- 26:40Speaker 1: are mocked as alive.
- 26:42Speaker 2: But were they getting money? Some of them are getting money,
- 26:45Speaker 2: what percentage of them?
- 26:50Speaker 1: It isn't clear. We're actually trying to run the ground.
- 26:51Speaker 1: I was trying to get an answer drive before the show.
- 26:55Speaker 1: What it looks like is that most of the fraud
- 26:57Speaker 1: is not coming from Social Security pay is directly, but
- 27:01Speaker 1: because they are marked as alive in the Social Security database,
- 27:04Speaker 1: that they can get then get disability, unemployment, sort of
- 27:09Speaker 1: fake medical payments and other things because they're marked is
- 27:11Speaker 1: alive in the Social Security database. So it looks like
- 27:15Speaker 1: it's a bank The fraud is a bank shot. Essentially,
- 27:18Speaker 1: they bank shot into social Security. They just do an
- 27:24Speaker 1: are you a live check and then get fraudulent payments
- 27:28Speaker 1: from every other part of the government. Oh yeah, and
- 27:33Speaker 1: this exploits the fundamental weakness in the government is that
- 27:37Speaker 1: the various government databases they don't talk to each other,
- 27:40Speaker 1: or they talk to each other very poorly in a
- 27:42Speaker 1: very limited way. So the way to the way that
- 27:45Speaker 1: the system gets exploited is is by taking advantage of
- 27:48Speaker 1: the poor communication between the verius databases in the government.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Give an example of like what's happening, say Treasury, which
- 27:59Speaker 1: is improving rapidly the main payments computer. It's called PAM
- 28:05Speaker 1: UH like Payments Account Payment Accounts Master Database or something
- 28:08Speaker 1: like that. But in miracles of PAM that's responsible for
- 28:12Speaker 1: almost five trillion dollars payments a year, roughly a billion
- 28:15Speaker 1: dollars an hour. And when we came there, we're looking
- 28:19Speaker 1: at the payment. It's like the payments have no uh.
- 28:24Speaker 1: You could put a payment through with with no payment
- 28:26Speaker 1: categorization code and no description on the payment, like basically
- 28:31Speaker 1: untraceable blank checks. This is the kind of thing that
- 28:35Speaker 1: if if it was done as a public company, uh,
- 28:38Speaker 1: the company would be immediately delisted and the executive team
- 28:43Speaker 1: would be thrown in prison. But this is just normal
- 28:46Speaker 1: at the government. So we said, okay. Our recommendation to
- 28:51Speaker 1: the Treasury and the Federal Reserve is like, we need
- 28:53Speaker 1: to make the payment categorization codes mandatory, not optional, and
- 28:59Speaker 1: you need there needs to be an an explanation. We're
- 29:03Speaker 1: not judging the quality of the explanation, but there should
- 29:05Speaker 1: be some explanation for what this payment is for above nothing.
- 29:12Speaker 1: That's a radical change to the system that is being
- 29:14Speaker 1: implemented now. My guess is that probably is one hundred
- 29:19Speaker 1: billion a year Jesus Christ's well, I might
